It's the music surgery at 9pm tonight with Huw. He's got Frank Turner on there and Nihal is popping in. I'm not planning to be a musician but it sounds like a good show.

Haha, no I agree with Beccy. "Have a nice life!" is something I associate with someone who shouts at you when they plan on never seeing you again.

It also sounds a bit sarcastic!

Might as well have put TTYN in it.

I thought Beccy's Classifieds - Home Edition was the selling of houses. It was before. Most of the stuff in Beccy's Classifieds actually is home stuff so there's no need for the extra bit. Beccy's Classifieds - Beccy Edition would be better ;)

"GOOD LUCK LIVING WITH EACH OTHER, HAVE A GOOD LIFE (LOL)"

"Scott Mills, Radio 1, Lottery, Hole In The Wall, Living with the Hoff, and many student gigs."

Sexy tramp or even spicy tramp would have been a better title. But clearly sexy bitch worked for them.

Melvin Benn organises Reading and Leeds? I thought he was just the god father of Latitude festival. What a player.

Mr Hudson is in the MOBOs? Someone needs to tell them an important fact...

It just sounds like he's autographed the card. "Have a nice life! Scott Mills, Radio 1". Sounds like something he'd probably send to me if I was about to get married, not an actual friend.

'have a nice life together!' i think is what he was meaning to say. together instantly makes it sound nicer and less like a threat.

Could've sworn Chappers almost giggled when pronouncing some Sri Lankan cricketer's name a moment ago. He was definitely smirking. Dunno the poor chap's real name, but it's pronouced 'Dick Ahoy'.

Hope he has to talk about him again at 4.30 with Scott and Beccy sniggering in the background.

Yes, I am immature. And?

People seem to be a bit confused on Twitter. I think they assume when Scott says he's done a Drama GCSE they think they meant 40 years ago when he was at school, and not actually in the past few months. They're clearly not die hard listeners.

    • I see Katie (and Mairead) were out with Jordan tonight.  I don’t listen to the show any longer, I am shocked they are allowed to mention Jordan.
    • At least I do not ask stupid questions…😂
    • I suggest you follow the other DJs too if so, you will learn the hardest working will go further 🤣
    • A simple check on his instagram would answer all your questions , he’s on tour with his wife and the team behind his podcast. I suggest anyone to follow the radio presenters, you will learn a lot about their other jobs and work commitments. 
    • Where is Jamie? It felt like he was settling in when Vick wasn’t on but he’s not been on since last Tuesday now. They’ve not even mentioned him, in fact they’ve mentioned Jordan more than they’ve mentioned him in the last two days.
    • Scott's show is on the road next week, live from Malmö in Sweden on Wednesday and Friday, ahead of Eurovision. As he's doing the semi final coverage on the TV on Tuesday and Thursday alongside Rylan, Gary Davies sits in for him on those days.
    • I don't feel there's so much overlap between M&M and Scott's shows. M&M is of a similar calibre to Scott & Chris on R1, with genuine laugh out loud moments and usually a show packed full of real interesting content. Scott's R2 show is IMO a shadow of the stuff he did on R1 (not his fault, he's doing exactly what station management want), with music and content to appeal to a much older audience.
    • To be fair, Scott & Chris would've still been fine on Radio 1. It was mentioned at the time that Scott's move was very much on Radio 2's part rather than Radio 1 wanting to move them on. That's the one problem that Radio 2 has, trying to appeal to such a wide demographic.. it's the perfect listen for many, but equally a turn off for many others. I think they have the balance fairly right.     
    • I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
    • Bank Holiday Monday Schedule 6am-10am: Arielle Free in for Greg 10am-2pm: Dean & Vicky (No Rickie, Melvin & Charlie) 2pm-6pm: Vick & Jamie (No Katie) 6pm onwards: As normal.
    • Dare I say they've sounded great this past week?  Very much gelling.  Maybe less pressure?  Seem to be having a genuinely good time and not forcing things.
    • I'm in the minority in my workplace, most of them love country music.  Me, the American, does not care for it.  That said, I haven't haaaaaated some of the country adjacent stuff that's been on the R1 playlist.  
    • The Eurovision semi finals are on from 8 to 10pm on Tuesday 7th and Thursday 9th May with Richie Anderson. That means Sara Cox in on till 8 on those days.  Saturday 11th May is Eurovision 'Super Saturday... 1-3pm Your Ultimate Abba song with Gary Davies  3-6pm Michelle Visage's Eurovision All Stars 6-8pm Eurovision Request Party with Owain Wynn Evans 8pm Eurovision Grand Final with Scott Mills and Rylan Clark  
    • It is funny because everyone thought Matt was on the way out, now he's been described as the heir to Mills.
