This is sad news. The Scott Mills Show isn't the same without Laura.

Can't Andy Parfitt just rid of Reggie & Fearne altogether, that was Laura could stay with Scott Mills.

This is another sad day for Radio 1.

The previous sad day was when I heard Kelly was replacer for The Surgery and Dance Anthems got replace with switch.

Radio 1 - Things can only get worse..?

another f*cking brilliant move by radio 1 then, ever heard of the phrase "if it ain't broke don't fix it"? i doubt she'll get to speak much on fearne and reggies show, becuase she'll be more interesting in one sentance than those two in the whole show i'm afraid. and we don't want to show up parfitts' special talents do we?!

laura has been brilliant on scott's show and at times has been scott's show. it wont be the same at all without her, i hope she continues to visit and post here from time to time. she'll always be welcome.

some awful, awful moves by radio 1 in this last year. it's getting too much to mention. but as far as i am concerned, andy parfitt wants locking up in the same place as paul gascoigne.

Aww this is like your best mate getting married - you know you should be really happy for her but inside you're gutted because nothing's ever going to be the same again :(

would you believe that what you just said is happening to me now. my friend is getting married in may and i can tell we are drifting apart already. sad sad times for dc.

on the grid.

Really gutted to hear about this, Laura's a big part of the show and she'll be incredibly difficult to replace. Oh well, good luck Laura and congratulations on the promotion, don't forget to pop back on here and visit us sometimes... :)

So save the last dance

For me my love 'cause I

I see you as an angel freshly fallen from the sky...

You'll be sadly missed Laura, it'll be very hard for Radio 1 to find someone to fill your shoes (and bra ;)).

Congratulations, however on your promotion. Wishing you the very best of luck with (Fearne) and Reggie, I'm afraid you're gonna need it!

Hope you continue to visit the show, and us. Don't be a stranger. :)

PS. Really sweet of you to give Jono the exclusive.

:( 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.

Ditto, no Yorkshire rep on't show either, just that miserable manc git

Can't we get Fox Mary in as a replacement?, Better still get rid of that mardy old git chapman!

Can i just clarifythis.Is she going at the end of this month,ie this week,or is it the end of March?

I was wondering the same thing tbh. I assume it'd be March.

Whoever said to get rid of Chopper / Chappers / Chapman -- you gotta be kidding? It's like getting rid of comedy dave from moyles' show. Mills wouldn't so much be on top form anymore.

    • Yep I really struggled with Matt & Jamie which was a shame as otherwise really like Matt. Unfortunately it comes across on-air whether it's actually try or not that Jamie doesn't know a lot about radio and doesn't seem particularly desperate to improve either or if I'm being generous he's playing an act - neither of which particularly appeals. The everyman act can sometimes work but you need to have that natural likability and appeal for it to do so in the way that way Chris Stark did. I mean even towards the end of his stint with Matt Jamie was struggling with getting the Whatsapp number right which is a basic.
    • Have to say even if there is a good reason for Jamie to be off on Thursdays the optics of them a month in still not be able to do a 'normal week' of the scheduled team for a brand new show isn't great. And if Jamie was meant to be away on Thursdays clearly nobody let whoever runs BBC Sounds know. Who would've guessed from the Vick & Jordan days though that it would be Vick who's the everpresent so far (just kidding Vick - really rate her as a DJ and I know she has a lot of other engagements outside of Radio 1).
    • Sorry explain what you mean there please? Danny is unlistenable?? 
    • I dunno if it is me but even Vick and Katie don't sound as good in that slot alone as they did before. Maybe I have just fallen out of love with it all.
    • Agree with most of this above. Listening to only vick and katie today, I was thinking that it doesn't need Jamie. Its very jarring how sometimes he's there and sometimes he isn't. I don't think it needs to be a trio. Surely there are bigger problems at the moment, Danny on a pretty big slot on the station is literally unlistenable.
    • Yes, the length of the time on the station does help as with Annie Mac she did what dance specialist DJs kind of get a bit more favourability with the evening listeners who start out on something specialist. With Annie Mac she did years on dance before going to the flagship new music specialist programme with giving opportunities to new DJs and curating the playlist and having something different from Clara’s more music daytime show where she had to work with the playlist. Had she done more time doing a specialist show later on in the schedule it may have oddly made the moment bigger. Think sometimes what has helped create such a unique sound in presenters and personalities like Annie Mac, Jack and Grimmy for example starting out doing a late show with looser format. Think for the next Jack, Annie and Clara’s of the station do need to have a late live slot and do hope when radio 1 relax is shut down that maybe they change the power down playlist for something with bit more freedom.
    • She is a good broadcaster no doubts but am of the same page with feelings mutual.
    • Clara was always a decent, competent and even good music radio presenter. But equally, she never provoked really strong emotions in me that I must listen or must switch off.
    • Jamie is definitely very divisive though.  Some people's "radio comedy gold" is other people's "unlistenable".  I have liked Matt and Mollie, Matt on his own, Mollie and Jordan etc etc.  But couldn't listen to Matt with Jamie. No hate on Jamie but I just don't like his sense of humour.
    • The dynamics of this are interesting.  Jordan works best with people he knows and he already knows Chris and Sian so from day one it should sound fairly natural.  
    • Have an amazing birthday Scott!  Looking forward to Tuesday! 
    • This has to be a joke right. This is so Scott Mills 🤣
    • Greg's shoe live and Jordan on catchup so can skip ads
