Laura to leave Scott Mills show


Jono

Recommended Posts

Unfortunately from the end of the next month there'll be team changes at Radio 1 towers. Laura is to leave the Scott Mills show after four years working with the Lord.

It's not all bad though, she'll be going off to produce Fearne and Reggie's weekend shows and so it means she'll be getting a promotion. However it does mean she'll no longer be appearing on Scott's show with her random stories nor will you hear her laugh in the background every afternoon.

:( That's pretty bad news for the show, Laura was my favourite "character" for the reasons you've just said. Good news for her though, and I hope the promotion works out well for her.

:( it will not be the same without her, the show will miss her terribly !

she is not just a producer she is one of the team, like Moyles has his team.

with out her input, the show will become stale & boring i think, you don't get any input on air from the producers of any other shows except Moyles, it will just end up being Scott on his own with bits & bobs from Chopper.

im not happy :x

Of course, this is good news for Laura, but it's not at all good news for us :(

The show isn't really the same without Laura - I remember one or two times when she's had a day off or something, and it just isn't the same.

I hope they find someone just as good to replace her, even if that's not possible :(

They could keep her name on the show, she'd probably still turn up more than Fearne ;)

I hope this means Scott will be doing the chart more. It's not the right job for him (he's too limited on it) but he knows what he's doing, and he makes it a good listen.

I'm i bit gutted that Laura won't be on Scott's show anymore, but congratulations if its a promotion although tbh i don't see her being able to help out Fearne and Reggie both of them are incredibly dull hopefully she won't be bored to tears like their listeners.

Good luck to Laura on her promotion. The Scott Mills show won't be the same without her. I hope they don't replace her with a woman who tries too hard to be funny and quirky.

I hope Laura does something drastic to Fearne and Reggie as I can't listen to the chart anymore now. It's bad enough that Fearne is always on the TV but she's ruined a radio show that I've loved ever since I was in my early teens.

PS did Laura tell you this news herself Jono?

I'm just the Perez Hilton of the Radio 1 world.

Hey Jono do you reckon you could pass on messages to Laura?

Good luck Laura we are all going to miss you.

Love you xxx

Feel free to post your comments here, she'll be reading throughout the week I'm sure.

    • The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right 
    • I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes 
    • What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
    • He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band 🤣 how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio 
    • Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom. We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show. Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
    • As positives go, at least Danny said what the last song played was and upcoming song played was. Plus I guess in that link are perhaps ideas for content (asking listeners to come up with bands from things around them, things that have happened to them this week). That's where's the positives end. It comes across as no thought has gone into what Danny will say next. It gives me proper flashbacks to some Jamie Laing links (especially that one show where he was unexpectedly solo). It's ironic that for all the duos and trios on the station - the one show and DJ that is positively crying out for another DJ to help show them the ropes is left all solo. At least with Jamie Laing they learnt their lesson and he's not been left solo since.
    • How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out 
    • RPReplay_Final1713612277.mp4   You’re welcome
    • At a time when Radio 1 has surely lost listeners to Capital at Breaktast you’d be trying to protect the station so people switch back.  Certainly yesterday I didn’t switch back to Radio 1 at all.
    • Was abysmal…Surely Danny can’t be a contender for anything permanent when the new schedules are locked in I.e Matt and Mollies slot 
    • Alexandra Burke creating the phrase 'Elephant In The Room' whooooooooo
    • Zane Versus.... Whooooooooo. Do You Do Fridays? WhooOOOooo.  
    • The Capital Breakfast show is right up my street so far - such a fun listen. You've both been great on Radio 1 and are sounding excellent again on Capital A few quickfire questions: You've both been part of some great pairings on radio and on podcast - what goes into making a duo or trio work and sound great on air? Also, Chris - were there ever any discussions about you moving over to Radio 2 with Scott or had the Global offer already come first? Also how do you both go about managing that split between your radio 'you' and the private 'you'? You share a lot on air but also there's some understandably some stuff you keep private (famously Jordan doesn't 'talk about those things'). And how do you make sure if you're having a miserable day or are a bit low that it doesn't come across too much on air?    
    • What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
    • Have been reading this all week. She's such a brave woman. Just got to the chapter where she explains why she missed Scott's leaving event at Radio 1. She talks about leaving Radio 1 because her mum's health got worse, and wanting to quietly leave radio at 44 just how she first arrived on the airwaves at 18. Worth a read!
