Scott Mills statement

0:00So, Scott Mills has finally made a statement, he says. The recent announcement that I am no longer contracted to the BBC has led to the publication of rumour and speculation. In response to this, the Metropolitan Police has made a statement which I confirm relates to me. An allegation was made against me in 2016 of a historical sexual offense, which was the subject of a police investigation in which I fully cooperated and responded to in 2018. As the police have stated, a file of evidence was submitted to the Crown Prosecution Service, which determined that the evidential threshold had not been met to bring charges. Since the investigation, related to an allegation that dates back nearly 30 years and the police investigation was closed seven years ago, I hope that the public and the media will understand and respect my wish not to make any further public comment on this matter.

1:02I wish to thank from the bottom of my heart all those who have reached out to me with kindness my former colleagues and my beloved listeners who I greatly miss. The mirror disclosed that the former Radio 1 and 2 DJ was interrogated in 2018. I think it was the mirror that started this story off, actually. We're getting this statement as available everywhere. We're getting it from Birmingham Mail, but it's available everywhere. That's it, that is Scott Mills statement, really. It was quite short, it was described as lengthy, but that was quite short and less bits of it was missed off. So there we go. So in the meantime, let's get back to our stuff. Let's do some quotes.

2:03From Zendaya, the best thing you can do is stay true to yourself and keep growing. Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard. That's Caitlin Clark, Millie Bobby Brown, be hard work hard, sorry be kind work hard and never give up on your dreams. Rihanna says, there's no such thing as perfect, just be your authentic self. And do a lipper, if you believe in yourself, the world will believe in you too. So in weird facts, a group of kangaroos is called a mob. The human eye can distinguish approximately 10 million different colors. Sharks have existed longer than trees. The first computer bug was literally a moth stuck inside the machine. Flamingos can only eat when their heads are upside down. Wow, isn't the world wonderfully strange. Some hacks for you, keep a decision fatigue list of go-to outfits and meals.

3:10Use the parking lot method, write random thoughts on a separate page during meetings. Set your alarm across the room so you have to get out of bed to switch off. Batch similar tasks together to reduce mental switching and practice the one breath pause before reacting to anything stressful. Here's our trivia quiz, what is the only continent with no active volcanoes, Australia, which animal sleeps up to 22 hours a day, the koala? What is the most expensive spice in the world? Safron. And what was the first fruit grown in space? A potato. I would argue a potato isn't a fruit, but there we go. So would you rather? Would you rather have unlimited money, but no friends or unlimited friends,

Would you rather live without music or without movies? Would you rather have a perfect memory, or be able to forget anything you want? And would you rather never sleep again, but always be tired, or sleep as much as you want, but never feel fully rested? And my goodness, my brain hurts from all that thinking. Yeah, well, have a think about that, and let us know in the comments your thoughts, which ones you would choose.
