DJ Scott Mills sacked by BBC 'after allegations over historic relationship'
"While we do not comment on matters relating to individuals, we can confirm Scott Mills is no longer contracted to work with the BBC."
"I had not heard anything about it until 17 minutes ago, when it was on the BBC website and I only had the information that was given to you in the bulletin."
"I wanted to personally let you know that Scott Mills has left the breakfast show, and the BBC. I know that this news will be sudden and unexpected and therefore must come as a shock."
Scott Mills was abruptly taken off air last week after hosting his show on Tuesday. A BBC spokesperson confirmed his departure without providing details. Allegations regarding Mills' personal conduct from over ten years ago surfaced. Gary Davies replaced Mills but did not address the reason for his absence. Jeremy Vine expressed surprise at the news during his show. An email from Lorna Clarke informed staff of Mills' departure, acknowledging the shock it would bring to both staff and listeners.
