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.

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
