I know it's mostly irrelevant to the overall post but to be nitpick slightly, Tina is still a relief presenter on tv news bullitens on BBC One. She presented the News At Six and Ten a few weeks back

Lots of valid points there.  One thing to understand is that DJs are not on the same contracts as you or I, they are not PAYE employees on the payroll on a regular contract of employment ergo are subject to less stringent employment rules and what is stipulated in the contract, unlike for example, someone who works in your local Tescos or at the Bank.  It is important to add here before going on; staff who work in management (like Aled) or production/music team (Matt Fincham and co)/social media team/programming and so on and so forth are permenent employees (like the guy who works at Tescos) and would be in a permenent Contract of employment which would have a framework for discipline and grievances and be covered possibly by union protection. This is why Production teams, specially at weekends actually work on two shows usually in a shift, exceptions are probably breakfast and drive and on R2 Vine. News staff like Callum Leslie, or Tina Daheley or indeed Rosin Hasty all work for the "News" arm of the BBC, so they come under the same teams as the presenters on the BBC news channel and again are permenent staff, which is why Rosin was allowed to move into another arm of "news" when she had her baby and moved role, no doubt she applied for an obtained another role within "news" when she came off of the Breakfast show. Another example of this was Tulip who did R1 news on drive when Scott was there, and then moved over to TV news still working under the same umbrealla. Tina sometimes presented on BBC news as well in the past when she was on R1 breakfast (don't think she has since being on R2 and remember that dates back to 2019 when ZB got the show off of CE.  Now you ask how can Tina cover Vine... well that is like a side hussle, so she will be paid an ad hoc fee as a freelancer to cover for Jermery the weeks he is off, which is outside her permenent employment, so if she does news on Breakfast that is her "working day" and the part where she covers 12-2 is a freelance jobby she is paid ad hoc fees for.  They are freelance and contracted for delivery of their programmes, so for example Jack Saunders will be contracted to deliver the NMS 4 days a week and the chart on Friday, he will be expected to adhere to the BBCs code of cunduct social media policies and all. He would be expected as part of his contract to attend events such as Big Weekend and other things.  The Contract would read something like x amount of shows per year, allowing for time off. DJs don't have to apply for annual leave like you or I, they just tell management probably at the start of the year what weeks they are off, and of note they probably don't get paid for leave as well.  I did a quick online search for a BBC DJ Contract and it came back with this    6. Disrepute and Behaviour Disrepute Clause: A standard clause allowing the BBC to terminate the contract immediately if the DJ brings the BBC into disrepute. Code of Conduct: Adherence to BBC staff standards regarding behaviour.  7. Confidentiality and Data Protection Confidentiality: A requirement not to disclose information about future music playlists, guest appearances, or confidential BBC business. GDPR: Compliance with data protection laws regarding listener information. So any of those could apply in this case I would say, we just don't know the ins and outs, and it's wrong to speculate. The reason we probably haven't heard from Scott since is likely legal. Either bound by an NDA, or other legal reasons.  The main thing is he is alive, not in a good place, but alive. I worry about what happens to him and Sam, and they could be going through hell as a couple over this, you just don't know. 

His Saturday breakfast show on Radio 2 is very different to that of it's weekday counterpart. It's more of a laid back vibe and a lot of the music is different to that of the other daytime shows (heavier focus on indie and alternative, which is what his old Saturday afternoon show was like i believe). You never know, but i just can't see them going for one of the weekend presenters.  

I think dermott would be a good choice he seems to know his music and he is quite good on this morning from what I hve seen not heard him on the radio mind 

I know it’s TalkTv but they were saying Scott Mills must have done some extremely awful because the BBC are wiping all trace of him everywhere. They also raised a good point if the BBC knew about the investigation in 2017, why did they sit on it and do nothing but promote Scott even further. However, when it came out it was an underaged minor, they sacked him. Does that make it ok then if the person was over 18? I also hate to say this but Scott must be guilty of something because he has not come out to defend any of the claims made against him except to confirm it was him who the Met Police investigated in 2017. If he was innocent would you not want to clear your name and start an unfair dismissal claim against the BBC? It doesn’t look good.

11th April M Huncho in for Kenny Allstar
