Comic Relief
Comic Relief has been the excuse for some of the Scott Mills Show's biggest stunts and challenges. Here are all our Comic Relief and Red Nose Day write-ups.
Kate's second date was interrupted when her cat covered the bedroom, clothes and wall in diarrhoea — yet the man stayed, admired her crisis response and eventually married her. [...]
Matthew and Simon's shared-wedding memories, scrambled-egg knowledge and vague history of shared underwear convinced most listeners they were brothers — but they were actually lovers. [...]

Jack Whitehall, John Newman and Nick Grimshaw joined the overnight fundraiser before Megan Barton Hanson faced a deliberately extra-rude Innuendo Bingo and Fyre Festival’s Andy King explained what “taking one for the team” really meant. [...]
Scott and Chris started their 24-hour Comic Relief broadcast at 1pm with jokes collected around Britain and Ireland, Belfast six-year-old Edward contributing the road trip’s final knock-knock joke and Dr Alex supplying doctor humour. [...]
