Why are Scott Mills and Steve Wright leaving their BBC Radio 1 and Radio 2 shows?
03.07.2022 - 03:21 / msn.com
There are big moves being made over in the world of BBC Radio, with both Scott Mills and Steve Wright leaving their long-running shows on BBC Radio 1 and Radio 2. Both Scott and Steve are practically part of the furniture at their respective stations but announced they would both be leaving their current afternoon shows in the months to come. Scott, 49, currently helms the drivetime slot alongside Chris Stark, 35, who will also be exiting the station, as well as the Official Chart Show on Fridays.
This week, it was confirmed that Scott will be replacing Steve’s afternoon show, Steve Wright In The Afternoon, as part of a huge shake-up at the broadcaster this autumn. Steve, 67, announced he would be departing his beloved 2pm-5pm slot in an emotional speech on Friday, as he came to the end of his programme. Helen Thomas, Head of Radio 2 says: ‘Steve’s a legendary radio broadcaster and producer, known for his passion and commitment in keeping millions of listeners entertained each weekday afternoon.
‘I’m thrilled he’ll remain in Wogan House as a part of the Radio 2 family to present Sunday Love Songs, as well as seasonal specials and regular Serious Jokin’ specials for BBC Sounds and Radio 2. ’Here’s everything you need to know about the ongoing shake-ups at the BBC Radio stations. Scott has been a Radio 1 favourite since 1998 but will be leaving after 24 years.
He will be taking on a new-look afternoon show instead of Steve from September. It will be cut by an hour and as a result, giving Sara Cox an extra hour, from 4pm-7pm. As a result, Scott will leave Radio 1 and Radio 5 Live, where he also currently hosts a Saturday morning show with pal and Radio 1 colleague Chris.
