On the show today, Scott had the cast of in - it's a show in London where it's entirely made up as they go along.Ìý The pro's call it Improvisation, or "Improv" if you're being a luvvy.Ìý We gave them some of your plot lines, and they made up amazing songs right on the spot!Ìý Here's the videos.

Every musical has a love song. This one is about Scott and Chappers waking up together after a night on the wine.

Song: Chappers' Showstopper

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 13:05 UK time, Thursday, 18 June 2009

Lewis off of Chelmsford has been back on with a song for Chappers to sing.

We think this could be the Pet Shop Boys entering songs under an alias!

Lewis says:


"I'm calling it "Showstopper". I even managed to fit in a John Barnes style rap, to be performed by the Scott Mills character."

Plot: Scott Mills The Musical - Defrosted

Post categories:

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 12:23 UK time, Thursday, 18 June 2009

A nice idea from Sam who thinks our play should centre around frozen food.

More storylines are always welcome scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Scott Mills The Musical - Defrosted by Sam

I think you should include in your musical the night you ate everything in your freezer.

You could write a song about the yorkshire puddings - they are nice with jam by the way!

Plot: Back To The Prejudice

Post categories:

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 12:19 UK time, Thursday, 18 June 2009

We like Kelly's idea but would the audience be able to keep up with this plot?

Keep those ideas coming to scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Ìý

Back To The Prejudice by Kelly off of Doncaster

Scott buys a new car. It's an old Deloreon...

Suddenly he's transported back to 1813.

There he finds himself in the middle of the plot of Pride & Prejudice

He meets up with Chris Moyles and Jo Whiley's relatives from back in the day

He fights with Mr Chappers-Darcy for the love of the fair maiden, Beccy.

But can he get himself Back To The Future...?

Plot: Beccy Blue

Post categories:

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 12:15 UK time, Thursday, 18 June 2009

Keep your ideas coming to scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Richard's synopsis seems quite arthouse and vaguely familiar.

Ìý

Beccy Blue by Richard

Beccy Blue is set in France and centres around a young and beautiful girl called Beccy.

She moves in with her boyfriend of one week - Scott.

Scott is a handyman at a run down coastal resort.

In his spare time he is a radio DJ at the local Hypermarche.

When Beccy discovers this, she persuades him to try and get on Radio Une, and in her ever widening mania sends a demo tape so Radio Une can consider him for the job. When the demo tape is returned by Radio Une, Beccy's mood swings and mania increase making her unpredictable and violent.

Can an offer of help save Betty and their love?

Plot: The Wizard Of Hoff

Post categories:

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 12:12 UK time, Thursday, 18 June 2009

Sean has sent in this idea involving fairy tales, Britney, and and flying monkeys. Nice.

Keep your ideas coming in please scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Ìý

The show starts with Scott getting a new radio show and needing a new sidekick to help him and Chappers. Scott's ideal side kick is Britney Spears but she's not so keen.

Scott looks for help at the Fairy Godmother's house where he finds the Fairy Godmother temp, Becky, and asks her to help him get Britney Spears.

But as Fairy Godmothering is not Becky's forté she does the magic spell wrong making every female want to be on his show.

Scott goes to see the Wonderful Wizard of Hoff to break the bumbling Fairy Godmother's spell. Chappers is not happy about this because he's enjoying looking at all hot new women on the show. He tries to stop Scott with the help of Scott's mum.

On Scott's journey he bumps into the Tim Man (Westwood) who needs a heart (engine) for his pimped out ride.

He also meets Chris the Cowardly Lion who needs courage (porridge) to wake up and do his morning show and Reggie the Scarecrow who needs a brain.

Chappers also has the help of his paint gun wielding flying monkey Jo trying to stop Scott.

What will happen next?

Plot: Love Stories

Post categories:

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 12:08 UK time, Thursday, 18 June 2009

All good stories have a love interest - thanks for all your suggestions for romantic themes.

Keep them coming to scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Here are some of our favourites so far:

Ìý

From Joe in Pontefract

Scott and Jo Whiley realise they really fancy each other and turn the Live Lounge into a "Love Lounge". Unfortunately they don't realise they have their microphones still on and the whole nation hears their "performance".

Ìý

From Cassie in Lowestoft

Scott and Chappers have a bit too much wine and wake up in the same bed together. They must piece together evidence from the night before to work out what really happened between them. Did they or didn't they?

Ìý

From Graham in Gateshead

A love triangle! Chappers really loves Beccy. Beccy loves Scott. Scott loves himself.

Ìý

From Deano in Wolverhampton

Scott and The Hoff announce they are to get married in a civil ceremony. The plot all revolves around the wedding preparations. Will they get to the church on time? In the end Wing tries to stop the wedding but it's not Scott she wants, it's Hoff. Wing and Hoff go off together leaving Scott brokenhearted.

Ìý

From Nicola in Daventry

Beccy falls in love with Scott and they have a baby around Christmas time. Mysteriously 3 wise men from the east turn up with gifts for the child. Then some shepherds arrive. Scott's convinced he must be some kind of special one. But it turns out to be Chappers playing a trick on them.

Plot: Do I Not Like Orange

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 15:04 UK time, Friday, 5 June 2009

Charles has come up with this mysterious tale. Please send us your ideas scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Ìý

Do I Not Like Orange by Charles off of London

We open on a shadowy figure lurking downstage.ÌýThis is our narrator, and though we don't realise who he is, he seems to have an amarzin knowledge of Scott's life.Ìý Slowly, though the medium of song and dance, a story is revealed of a man in search of the perfect tan.ÌýScott's theme, "Do I Not Like Orange!", is a haunting ballad listing previous self-tanning experiences and "Brown as Gravy" is a rousing, anthemic treatise on the perfect skin pigmentation.

Interwoven with this searching theme is the love triangle that is Chappers, Scott's mum and the Posh Lady off of Radio 4.Ìý "Posh or Totty" graphically

God Of Wine by Simon Clarke
Ìý

Not yet complete, but I am adding to this each day at the moment.

Ìý

I see the story being about Scott's journey to discover what he loves most in the world. I think the scenes could be divided into sections with this in mind. My first thoughts are around:

Scott's Love of women

Scott's Love of celebrity

Scott's Love of men

Scott's Love of wine

Scott's Love of Scott.

My initial thoughts are around two main climaxes in the show. The one

Plot: Wing Wedding

Scott's flatmate came up with this one. If you can do better please email us scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Ìý

Wing Wedding by Scott's flatmate

Was just thinking, you should get listeners to suggest how it ends ie - what is going to happen to you in the future.

For example, I reckon you'll help get Wing to number 3 in the charts with a remake of There Was An Old Woman Who Lived In A Shoe. This will spawn LivingÌýTV to commission a show whereÌýScott has to live with Wing. Whilst doing the showÌýthey fall in love and are about to get married but on the way to the churchÌýScott gets knocked down and killed by a milk float, that just happens to be driven by Captain Dan The Demon Dwarf.

Plot: The Road to Eurovision

Post categories:

Thanks to Benedict who has obviously thought long and hard about this epic plot. Send us your ideas please to scott.mills@bbc.co.uk

Ìý

The Road to EurovisionÌý

by Benedict off of Swansea

Ìý

Act I

After discovering he has the winning numbers whilst hosting the lottery, Scott decides to fund his ultimate ambition of entering the Eurovision Song Contest. With the help of his Radio 1 listeners he composes a rock ballad about the secrets to a perfect smile. However tragedy strikes in Oslo the night of the big final. Before performing Scott has a piece of cake backstage which assassinates him. A national week of mourning is declared. Listeners travel across the world to pay their last respects bringing large buckets of fake tan toÌýdunk their fallen hero's body in. Before Scott is laid to rest The One That Doesn't Speak whispers something in his ear. The power of The One That Doesn't Speak's voice is enough to temporarily revive Scott. He reveals his dying wish to be cryogenically frozen (using his remaining lottery winnings) so he may be brought back to life in the future.ÌýScott's wish is honoured.

Plot: A Cleaner Love Story

Post categories:

The One That Doesn't Speak The One That Doesn't Speak | 14:34 UK time, Friday, 5 June 2009

Thanks to Tom for this idea. If you have some amazing inspiration about plots please email them to scott.mills@bbc.co.uk
Ìý
A Cleaner Love Story by Tom off of Bournemouth ish
Ìý

A while back, not really sure when, I remember you talking about your cleaner and there was something going on between you both. I cant really put my mind on what it was.

But it did get me thinking, and I just can imagine a 'wench style' maid sweeping up your flat with an old style broom at the beginning of one of the scenes and singing. Then you come in.ÌýMaybe this part of your past can be intertwined with the plot somehow? Even though I don't exactly remember what went on with her. Did she love you?ÌýÌý

If she did, there could be some sort ofÌýHarryÌýHill style 'Maid vs. Beth Ditto' fight scene.

Anyway I hope you read and consider this, my minds working overtime thinking about this right now. It will be genius.

Ooo actually, you could also have the people from 'Unofficial Mills' pop up every now and then in the musical at random times. They can look as if they are stalking you, and watching what you are doing. They don't even have to have a part in the storyline, they could get the sinister crowd booing that usually happens in pantomimes.

You should do this Scott.Ìý

Plot: Escape From The Care Home

Ìý
Kill MillsÌýby Sean in Swindon
Ìý
The team start planning Scott Mills The Musical and Becky phones the 'Angry Scottish Pizza Man' to ask if he would join the show. He agrees to come to a meeting in which he turns up looking a bit like Willie off the Simpsons. He is there to get revenge and is supported by all of the people Scott has pranked or madeÌýfun of in the last few years. They are there to KILL Scott!

What's more, there is a traitor within Radio One. Yes, its the One Who Doesn't Speak out to get revenge on Scott as he was never able to speak on the radio!
Scott runs to America to hide with the Hoff!
The show is still going ahead though and it gets to the night of the performance. Scott arrives in Scotland to learn that Becky and Chappers have been taken hostage!! The 'Angry Scottish Pizza man'Ìýwants to talk to Scott.

What will he do??

This song is "What Planet Are You From, Scott?". Jim says it's an "Electronica hi-camp anthem... complete with a mention of your 'terrifying servant' Chappers... it's a cracker!"

This son is from Michael Moore. Not the big fella with the baseball cap off of America - this one's from Lewisham. Michael describes this as "a Charlston/Bonzo Do Da Dog Band/Melancholic little ditty".

It's about how Scott doesn't get recognised much because he's on the radio. Scott would like to point out how it's not true - he recently got a lot of attention from the entire Newquay football team.

I feel it as at least, a moment of reflection in what is surely otherwise going to be a fantastically funny and wonderfully witty musical."Ìý Comments below please!
