Bio

Scott Mills is a British radio DJ, television presenter and occasional actor best known for presenting The Scott Mills Show on BBC Radio 1.

Born in Southampton, Scott always dreamed of becoming a DJ. At 16, after barraging his local radio station Power FM with demo tapes, he was given the chance to present a week of shows.

He was promptly offered a five hour slot from 01h00 to 06h00 six nights a week, which made Scott the youngest radio presenter in the UK. An offer for the Power FM drivetime show soon followed.

Since then, Scott has never looked back. After a two year stint at GWR FM in Bristol, Scott was snapped up by Piccadilly Key 103 in Manchester.

Initially on the late night slot, Scott swiftly shifted to the mid-morning slot. While there he conducted numerous high profile interviews and even secured an exclusive chat with Robbie Williams about his departure from Take That.

In 1995, Scott was asked to join the new London station Heart FM. Live events in Battersea Park, Hyde Park and a special on stage appearance in the middle of Covent Garden followed.

Other television credits for Scott have included a regular Sunday night appearance on Sky News where Scott gave his opinion on the week's newest record releases, and presenting for the British Forces abroad and a six week music show for the Middle East.

He also hosted BBC 3's Upstaged and narrated the first two seasons of the dating game show Dating in the Dark.

In 1998 Scott was approached by the Radio 1 early breakfast show and carried on getting up early for Britain until he took over the weekend afternoon shows in January 2004.

In June of that year Scott took over the weekday early evening slot, 4-7pm.

In addition to his radio work, he has also appeared on various television shows, playing both as a character and as himself. His main acting role was as reporter, Paul Lang in the BBC medical drama Casualty, appearing in episodes in both 2006 and 2007.

He also had a cameo in the BBC Scotland soap opera River City after praising the show highly on his radio show.

Mills has appeared as a contestant or guest on programmes including Mastermind, Supermarket Sweep, Children in Need, Hollyoaks, Most Haunted and Never Mind the Buzzcocks, and has appeared in the show Identity, hosted by Donny Osmond.

Mills came out as gay to the press in 2001, in order to avoid tabloid-style speculation. In February 2011, he presented a documentary for BBC Three called World's Worst Place to Be Gay?.
