The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

Oh well, I actually managed about 15 minutes this morning before I had to switch off to avoid hearing something so horrendously cringe-making it made me want to eat my own head. That must be close to a record in recent times. I used to like Scott Mills' shows so much, its terrible what has happened to them.

I would imagine his listening figures are good - lots of people seem to really love what he does. I just wish I was one of them!

I agree Yudster, he used to be good. His early morning shows from about 2001/2002 were very good.

I have to agree... is it just me or is there a different person on every day singing a song about ladies bra's and knickers?... is that funny?

His afternoon show used to be a good listen too, before the advent and horrific over-use of the truly dreadful Laura. Someone please give her a job on TV, maybe she'd make a decent CITV presenter or something...I was going to suggest T4, but to be honest, I don't think she's even up to that standard. Or maybe MTV, that's be great, I never watch MTV.

I don't think that's really the point though, is it? It's a funny song, first played in the UK by Danny Baker (a very good DJ, IMHO), and Scott's picked up on it. I don't like everything Scott does but he still manages to make me laugh on a regular basis. I think Laura brings a lot to the show, though.

I bet Danny Baker doesn't play it every ten minutes for weeks on end though. Because, as you rightly say, he is a good DJ.

Each to their own I suppose, I was determined not to get into a Scott Mills discussion because I recognise differing opinions and I don't like forcing my opinion on anyone. But sometimes you really have to just say sod it, he's shit.

when chris decides too leave. Which i hope is years too come. I hate a feeling that scott is the next breakfast host. Scott mirrors chris's radio 1 life.
Chris started on early breakfast.
Scott started on early breakfast.
Chris worked saturday breakfast.
Scott worked saturday breakfast.
Chris went too afternoon.
Scott is on afternoons.

Where next for them?
Work the maths out.
#307338
Don't most the daytime hosts start on early breakfast? I don't remember Mills doing Saturdays, but I'm sure you must be right?

If he does, he won't last very long.

What the balls is this Matt Damon thing all about?

Why did people saying it wake me up today?

I'd switch over to the comedy genius of Wogan - but I don't trust his dulcet tones to wake me up.

I honestly can't see him having that much say over who takes over the show.

I hated Scot this morning saying that "this was sweeping the nation"
true Scot it did sweep the nation, 2 years ago when Team America came out!

Now its old and boring.

Looks like its back to the MP3 player on the way to work for the next 2 weeks!

Yeah when he first took over form Sara Cox on afternoons i liked him, but then i drifted away, and it was when Laura and Chappers started playing a bigger part in the show that it went completely downhill for me.

The whole show just sounds so fake and scripted now, and Laura could very well be the most annoying person on Radio 1.

I on the otherhand could agree more, but then I would look like an ass kisser 8O

Of course the up side is that we have Coxy in the afternoons. Well, I like her anyway.

I'm not liking the "axe" either... It was bound to go though. He had a bee in his bonnet about it the last time he was on for Moyles.

I'm really mad that they managed to get that bras song into the actual Charts.. it charted at no. 27 yesterday, I believe. It's really too childish for words.

No worries, I was able to use it :) Show is up, a[…]

I don't think there have been many of Chris's ex-c[…]
