Scott's back... with Robbie Williams!

Scott's kicking off 2026 by sitting down for an hour with his old mate Robbie Williams.

They’ve been friends since Scott’s days as a fresh-faced radio presenter, introducing new music from a little-known boyband called Take That. So the pair have got plenty to chat about and lots of stories to share.

Robbie’s back releasing new music, with his Britpop album due in February and a chart battle on his hands! If Robbie gets another number one – what would be his sixteenth chart-topping album – then he’ll have beaten The Beatles’ record for the most number albums by any act.

Scott and Robbie chat about the pressures of releasing new music, being a popstar and a parent, and his pre-show rituals! Robbie also talks about his love of Lulu and opens up to Scott about his dad, who’s living with Parkinson’s, coming to one of his recent gigs. Listen as Robbie spends a full hour with Scott at BBC Radio 2.

Tina Daheley has the latest headlines and Ellie Brennan will bring you up-to-date traffic and travel news. There’s sport, a Pause For Thought and your chance to get your hands on Scott’s Golden Toaster!

If it’s your big day then there’s a chance to choose a top tune on the Birthday Game, or come and try your luck on the Easiest Quiz On The Radio. And you can help Scott pick the music for Friday’s Wonder Years, as he plays 30 minutes of hits to round off the week!

To listen on most smart speakers, just say: "Ask BBC Sounds to play Scott Mills.”
