BBC Radio 1
Coverage of Scott Mills's BBC Radio 1 years, from classic features and pranks like Flirt Divert to the daily afternoon show with Chris Stark, plus other Radio 1 presenters and shows through to more recent years.
Scott and the team pose as Castaway producers to interview the four Radio 1 listeners in the running to join the island, asking increasingly outlandish questions about nudity, romance, and crawling into a dead moose carcass — while Laura navigates a blindfolded mouse trap minefield in the studio. [...]
Scott debuts an entirely new game show concept: Treadmill Trivia, where contestants must answer general knowledge questions while running on a treadmill that speeds up with every wrong answer. [...]
Scott and the team work through a fresh batch of Flirt Divert messages, featuring an angry woman whose clothes have gone missing and a confusing domestic dispute involving a dog and a mysterious caller named Monica. [...]
Chappers spends the afternoon intercepting callers trying to request songs, playing them clips of Jay Goodman and putting them through to Westwood instead of the studio team — much to their confusion and annoyance. [...]
Scott's classic two-restaurant confusion prank, where he calls one takeaway, takes their order, then connects them to a second restaurant on the line — resulting in complete chaos over an aromatic duck that nobody wants to cook. [...]
Another edition of the Flirt Divert feature, where unsuspecting callers leave messages for people they think they've dated — only to discover they've rung the Scott Mills Show instead. This time around, there are large snakes involved, Big Barry gets a mention, someone's desperately trying to shift a van full of hoodies, and Scott reminds listeners once again: please stop giving this number to your mums.
