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. [...]
Scott continues his investigation into mystery phone numbers found written on pub toilet doors, calling up confused strangers to ask what services they're advertising — with predictably awkward results. He also attempts to fool his gullible mum for a second time. [...]
Scott pulls an elaborate prank on his mum, calling to say he's been arrested for not paying for an exercise machine from a home shopping channel — and remarkably, she falls for it, even when a "policeman" joins the call with increasingly absurd additional charges. [...]
Scott, Chappers, and Laura air their frustrations with each other in a dimly lit "safe zone" session, revealing the small but accumulating annoyances that have built up during weeks of intense working together. [...]
Jordan, the beneficiary of a random act of kindness back in December, visits Radio 1 for the day — and Scott springs a surprise on him. Plus, Scott finally reveals what really happened between Laura, Gareth, and James from One Night with Laura. [...]
Scott explores the surprisingly common practice of eating placenta after childbirth, taking calls from listeners with their own stories, before another round of the show's signature Meal or No Meal game turns messy when Laura discovers she's been eating dog food and actually enjoys it. [...]
A bumper edition of the week's best moments, featuring the aftermath of Laura's blind-date trip to Disneyland Paris with listener-voted companion Gareth, a rude awakening prank on an inconsiderate flatmate, and Chappers' blindfolded food guessing game where dog food is on the menu. [...]
Chappers debuts a blindfolded food-tasting game where Scott and Laura must pick unlabeled tins and eat their contents — with one tin containing dog food instead of a proper meal. [...]
Laura is sent on a revenge mission to wake up a listener's inconsiderate flatmate using loud German industrial metal, armed with permission and a megaphone. [...]
Chappers rings UK airports to persuade them to rename themselves after Jo Whiley, with surprising success at Blackpool International, whose marketing department actually agrees to raise the proposal at a board meeting. [...]
