Interview with John Barnes & Scott Mills on The Hit List Celebrity SpecialCHRISTMAS SPECIAL 28th December 7.45pm, BBC OneHow are you feeling going into the show? Do you have a team strategy? Scott: I haven't revised; I haven’t done my homework at all. I know the other teams are listening to their playlists but I think what’s the point of that, you don’t know what we are going to be asked, it could be anything?! John: The amount of songs there are between 1960 up until now, I mean how can you revise for that? I just think if you know the song now then you should know it when it comes on - if not then there’s no chance. S: I think it's a bit late to revise but I know that Melvin Odoom is currently listening to some playlists right now, like that's gonna help him! Scott, given your day job as a successful Radio 1 DJ, do you feel any pressure to win? S: Being a DJ I do feel that a lot of this may rest with me, what do you think John? He’s been apologising to me all day but in the same way, he said to me: "If you were in my football team I wouldn't expect too much from you." J: I'm only here to make you look good Scott. S: Although if there was a football anthem category then I think we would sweep up! First live gig you ever went to and where was it held? J: I think mine was Grandmaster Flash at the Hammersmith Apollo, 1977. S: That’s a good one! Mine is less impressive than John’s... I went to see Eternal in Manchester but I cannot remember what year it was. It was a while back. December 9, 2019 10:10am ET by BBC One |
