Even if whatever he has done, and has been dealt with promptly still a PR move by a departing Director General. Ie are we to believe the timing of the announcement is coincidental. It was historical issues apparently from over a decade ago, so hardly dealt with promptly.... [Post edited 30 Mar 19:27]

Mills was questioned by police under caution but the case was dropped because of a lack of evidence. However the Mirror understands the sacking relates to this individual.** *Mills earns between £355,000 and £359,999 annually for his work at the BBC, according to the 2024–2025 pay report.* My licence fee of £174.50s Is money well spent then.

Apparently it is closer to half a million since he started doing the breakfast show. Say what you like about the Smashy and Nicey generation of Radio 1 DJs, but at least they had identifiable (if often toxic) personalities. The likes of Mills just seem super bland...yet still predatory allegedly. |  | |  |

| Beeb on 12:00 - Mar 31 with 1598 views | Beckenhamhoop | I can only think that Mills may have not disclosed the investigation to the BBC and that the sacking is in relation to some breach of employment conditions otherwise it seems the presumption of innocence is a thing of the past. Is it just possible that the BBC have over reacted here because of Saville and Edwards? |  |

That's a good point, I was thinking it was a bit strange as surely it's innocent until proven guilty, and they are possibly in line for a massive lawsuit if it isn't proven. So that could explain it! |  | |  |
