The BBC is exploring options for a new host for its Radio 2 breakfast show after the firing of Scott Mills, who faced serious allegations related to historical sexual offences. OJ Borg, currently hosting a late-night show, is emerging as a potential candidate, favored for his likability and capability despite not being a household name. Other contenders like Vernon Kay, Sara Cox, and Claudia Winkleman are reportedly not in the running. Mills, 53, was dismissed after the BBC acted on new information regarding a police investigation dating back to 2016. His removal has led to the cancellation of his appearances at events, including the Ibiza Symphonica concert and the final episode of The Great Celebrity Bake Off For Stand Up To Cancer. The BBC acknowledged it was aware of the investigation since 2017 but took decisive action following the latest developments. Mills has stated he cooperated fully with the police inquiry and has faced ongoing speculation since his dismissal.
