So, the latest, this is a story that will not go away, a lot of people commenting on this. Assume there's more to come. We assume that the BBC is not telling us everything at the same time that the police haven't said anything. And Scott Mills hasn't, which, you know, we can't read into that because I assume he's got the lawyers there, so he's doing what he's being told, and we'll have to take it from there. But a met police spokesperson said last night, in December 2016, the met began an investigation following a referral from under the police force. And said that as part of the inquiries that they were doing, a man who is in his forties at the time of the interview was questioned by police under the caution, a full file of evidence was submitted to the CPS who determined the evidential threshold

had not been met to bring charges following this advice. The investigation was closed. And basically, you know, that's, this is me speaking, not the quote, that's how things are done. You know, they give files to the CPS and the CPS decide whether or not there's anything there. So that really seems to be the end of it. Why I think people are more concerned with why has this all happened right now? That seems to be the thing that people don't quite understand. So the BBC news correspondent, Seema Kotecher, said we heard gasps in the news room when people realised that he had been sacked. We don't know why he's been sacked, but we do know that it will surely be unwelcome news. The fact that the bosses had to do this means there must be something potentially very significant here to let one of the big names go. A huge name in the BBC. An allegation, a source explained, an allegation was made

against Scott last Tuesday. And he was called in for a meeting. He was taken off the air from radio to the following day and his contract was terminated at the weekend. It was a very fast process between the complaint to being raised and Scott leaving it happened in less than five days. A source close to Mills says Scott was told about the allegation in a meeting with senior staff present. He was tense. He has completely shut down now and no one can get a hold of him. No calls and no messages. Nothing. The people who know him are blindsided by all of this. And the BBC said while we do not comment on matters relating to individuals, we can confirm Scott Mills is no longer contracted to work with the BBC. So all very mysterious. In the meantime, let's have some, would you rather questions for us to ponder about?

So we did the one before, would you rather have a mullet haircut for the rest of your life always speaking rhymes? A team mullet? Yeah, why not? You can hide it under a hat, rhyming every sentence could be exhausting, couldn't you? Mr. Pesto, another one, would you rather fight one horse-sized duck or a hundred duck-sized horses? Let me, I've got to get me braining gear for this one hang on. Would you rather fight one horse-sized duck? Or a hundred duck-sized horses? Why a hundred? I'm not sure. The duck would be terrifying, wouldn't it? Would you rather have a perfect memory or be able to forget anything you want to will? A perfect memory. So you remember everything or be able to forget like specific

things. It's a tough one, the past can be heavy, but some lessons are worth remembering, aren't they? So you can let us know what your choices are there, you can read the funniest ones, or the most thoughtful answers to that one. I found that quite amusing. What about this? Let's see if we find this amusing, some jokes. The joke corner, as they say, why don't skeletons fight each other? They don't have the guts. That's a bad one, that. Here's another joke. I only know 25 letters of the alphabet. I don't know why.
