He did a guest 30 minute slot once on Scott and Chris’s show. It was a pretty amazing set, but but I don’t think this justifies calling him a “BBC Radio 1 DJ” in his opening bio. I’d suggest this is removed, and instead the guest DJ set is mentioned in his main bio. [[User:Madeinsane|Madeinsane]] ([[User talk:Madeinsane|talk]]) 17:57, 18 September 2020 (UTC) |
