Maybe he has about 5 more years left until Radio 1 decide he's a Radio 2 artist.

He'd be 50 then which is about 15 years older than the oldest artists that Radio 1 regularly playlist

Scott still brings in the listeners, so I doubt they'll bump him any time soon. It's a shame they've decided Matt & Mollie are better breakfast stand-ins for Greg when Scott was always great at that! We still have Annie Nightingale and David Rodigan going strong, albeit in late night slots, so they don't always just get rid due to age.

Maybe Scott didn't want to do breakfast stand in's any more? I can imagine now he's covering at Radio 2 he's a busy man

He better still continue to do his Xmas day breakfast show!

10 hour takeover happening today! 9am-7pm

Some snippets from this week's playlist

 

Miley is Insta-A listed.

Katy is insta-B listed.

Charli still on B

I don't think they've playlisted Cardi yet.

 

 

Miley was a given for a "thank you" A listing, given she's just headlined for them, they always massively favour their Big Weekend artists around this time.

 

I'm pleasantly surprised with Katy going straight to B list, they must e fairly confident in this song after 3/4 of the last songs under-performed. 365 only went C-C-B-B and wasn't insta-added.

Thanks for this, do you have any other playlist updates?

Looks like there’s abit if a clear out this week then!

Lots of people saying the uncensored version of Miley's Mothers Daughter was played yesterday on Scott Mills' show :P

Yeah it was. If you listen back to his show about half an hour in you can hear it!!!

Surprising they have the explicit version when it doesn’t strike me as a song that would be played after 9pm anyway based on the shows they have on throughout the night

Do they have swearing on the night time shows? The only late show I listen to is Jack Saunders and they always censor the songs.

Occasionally, on the specialist shows in the early hours they’ll always play a warning of bad language.. but if they’re not going to make use of the watershed then it begs the question why have any explicit tracks in their library at all? :P

Has anyone else noticed that they're suddenly spamming 'Body' by Loud Luxury? It's like it's back on the playlist again :unsure:

Suddenly? I didn't think they ever stopped playing it?

They've only played it once a day for the last week.

They've been playing it almost every day so far this year though.

 

Their last.fm page says it's one of their 50 most played songs in the last 30 days!

I would believe that actually, since he's played a lot by both day and night shows.

Yeah I just meant the whole thing, last.fm messes up for me quite a lot :P

 

And Dave & Lewis and BMTH & TOP having the same amount of scrobbles.
