This week we learnt...

This week Will Young caused a full evacuation of Hallam FM when he set off the smoke alarms. We learned that 1.2 billion people still go the loo OUTSIDE. And Hallamster had a spot of bother with his ice cream van – he thinks it might be the clutch.

Next week – Win £500 EVERY SINGLE morning to spend in-store at Currys PC World in Parkgate – and Hallamster will tell you how after 8 on Monday morning…

Little Fibber...

Did you see us in ‘The Star’ yesterday??? Oooops, Look…
I shocked myself this morning, Big John and Producer James tried to ‘learn me some brains’. But I got the answer right. Little 9 year old Mel from Belton gave me 3 statements, 2 were true, 1 was false. Could you pick out the fibber…

1.2 million people in the world still poo outside
Dogs have about 10 vocal sounds, cats have over 100
To become an astronaut, you must have registered your interest before your 18th birthday, so NASA can monitor your growth.


What do you reckon? Which would you have picked??? Scroll down for the answer.

Did you hear the song Big John 'found' on the internet for the feature 'Let's learn Michelle some brains'?



Learn Michelle Some Brains by BigJohnHallamFM
























ANSWER to above question.

FALSE: To become an astronaut, you must have registered your interest before your 18th birthday, so NASA can monitor your growth.
So it’s true about people pooing outside and dogs only having 10 vocal sounds. Who the eck poo’s outside?!?!? Come on… own up!

Top summer tune, what's yours?

I’m a little bit worried about tomorrow, Big John and Producer James are getting kids to teach me some brains! I’m scared.

If your kid is chatty and wants to come on Big John @ Breakfast and test me, nominate them by emailing Producer James. james.crookes@hallamfm.co.uk

We managed to get through a show without fire alarms being set off which was quite an achievement after yesterday. No cakes or candles or any food… is allowed in the studio ever again.

What did you make of my South Yorkshire Summer Song at 7.20? DJ Sammy, Boys of Summer… Ahhhhhhhh yeah! It reminds me of being 19, driving around in my Vauxhall Nova I called Cassy, with DJ Sammy blaring! From a shower radio I had in my car, cos my radio got nicked! Grrrrr! What’s you top summer song? What makes you go back to that special time? Facebook us and we’ll play it.



What's the ice cream van tune? - 8.30am - Call and win! by BigJohnHallamFM

Fire!

Win tickets to see Britney, in SOUTH YORKSHIRE!

The guy that won Pop Idol 10 years ago joined Big John @ Breakfast but… got us all into trouble! Silly Will Young!

Big John got him a cake (a battenburg from the petrol station, no expense spared), I don’t know where he got the candles from but they were blummin smokey and as a result, Will and his breath and the candle smoke set off the fire alarm… we had to evacuate the building! The technician wasn’t happy! Big John may be sent on a course as punishment. Haha!!!!

Missed it?? Here's what happened...

Drive-By Ice Creams...

Hallamster started his new time of 8.30 for the school holidays this morning, his Uncle Tyrone has an Ice-Cream Van, he was doing drive by ice creams and was kindly hand gesturing how many ice-creams he had left for people to buy. He needs to stock up for tomorrow, he only had 1 left at one point. Well done to Sam Angus for guessing the tune on the ice-cream van was scissor Sisters, Don’t feel like dancing! For guessing that right he gets 4 tickets to see WESTLIFE at the Keepmoat Stadium this Saturday. Whoop!



8.30 - Hallamster by BigJohnHallamFM


Tomorrow on Big John @ Breakfast…

Will Young, who was Pop Idol winner 10 YEARS ago! Flippin eck that’s gone quick. He joins us after 8 tomorrow.

Fatten Up!

Pixie Lott joined us this morning,
She’s very much looking forward to tramlines on Saturday.
Even though she has to share a dressing room with Ollie Murs, (well that’s what Big John told her)

Next week and all summer, Hallamster has got a promotion and will be moving to 830am everyday in his Ice Cream Van, All summer long!


GOSSIP….Have you heard what bosses told Daniel Craig he has to do before he can be James Bond again? He has 8 weeks to put on a stone which he lost for his role in the film ‘Cowboys and Aliens.’

They say he’s too scrawny now. He starts filming the first bits of James Bond in November and they want him back with a six pack, looking as toned as he did in those swimming trunks in Casino Royale. The film is due out next October.

Big John got very excited about the prospect of having to put on a stone and decided Kit Kats were a possible way to do it in 8 weeks. Your ideas involved sausage butties, lasagne for breakfast and cheese and onion crisp sandwiches! Nice!



Hallamster makes an important announcement by BigJohnHallamFM

Your Wedding, Your rules?

Big John got all emotional this morning, he nearly cried over his daughter. He saw pictures yesterday of a baby swim class but she looked really scared! It took him back to when he was younger and how much he was frightened of water. Ahhhhh bless!

In what are the rules, Keeley from Bramley asked for our and your help, she asked… ‘Can you ask your fiancés best man to get a hair cut before your wedding?’ what are the rules? Will he spoil the pics? Should she not be bothering with little things like that? Would you have the bottle to say something? Join the debate on Facebook.

Congratulations to 14 year old Olivia Wildsmith from Richmond- Her Dad won Ticket Tuesday for her. She gets to see The Wanted and JLS at Party in the Park in Yorkshire VIP styleeeeee. What a good Dad.

Tomorrow: Pixie Lott joins us ahead of her gig at Tramlines on Saturday. 



Pixie by BigJohnHallamFM

The Wanted are WANTED

‘The Wanted’ were certainly ‘wanted’ by their fans when they came into the studio to see Big John @ Breakfast, Look at all these ladies waiting for a cuddle…

As always 'The Wanted' were their lovely self's but in a little bit of a cheeky mood! They are a rite boisterous bunch when they want to be, drawing on each other, putting each other in headlocks, calling each other names.


We tried calling a superfan of The Wanted... BUT...


Epic Fail by BigJohnHallamFM


THIS Ticket Tuesday it's... The Wanted & JLS!

We're giving away VIP treatment for 4 at the Party In The Park gig in Yorkshire on Sun 31st July! How to enter.

Eastenders complaints...

Complaints have been made about Eastenders, last Thursdays episode annoyed a lot of people, if you watched it, were you left feeling a bit sea sick?

People have actually complained of motion sickness after some shaky camera-work. On the scene where Christian and Zainab were arguing, the camera did wobble a bit, it had strange camera angles in comparison to normal EastEnders scenes. Do you care?

Wag? A compliment?

Tomorrow on BJ@B...

THE WANTED!!!

EXCITING by BigJohnHallamFM


We were asked this morning by Natasha, is it a compliment when someone says...'You'd be a good wag!'. Oooooow, what do you think? Mixed opinion from you on the text.

This week on BJ@B

This is what's gone down this week on Big John @ Breakfast...
-Rachel Riley from Countdown joined us

You’ve got a problem, who you gonna call… Rescue Stu! After my boyfriend saved the day yesterday coming and getting a spider out of the studio (Big John and Producer James are just big girls! They would not go near it), now people of South Yorkshire want his help… Texts this morning…


Can Stu get a bird out of my garage?
Can Stu do heights, I need to sort my gutters?

Could you use hero Stu?


On Friday you could be off to see the new Harry Potter movie for free (you PLUS NINE!) and we need your voice… Help us to answer Michelle’s Question Time after 8…



Highlights by BigJohnHallamFM

Panic on Wednesday

The biggest spider EVER came in the studio. I've never seen anything like it in my life! I had to get my boyfriend, Stuie, to come and move it.


Big John and Producer James were more frightened than me! Sorry about the screaming. So Stuie the hero left work, came here and set Sally the spider free, back into the wild. She better not come back again!



OMG! by BigJohnHallamFM


Also this morning Kerry Anne and her Mum Doreen Collins from Conisborough won Ticket Tuesday so they are off to see Westlife Live!

Knickers Down...

This video could turn out to be fake and I hope for the sake of the celeb it is…

Here is CHARLOTTE Church with her knickers down after a drunken fumble with her fella, behind the back of a lorry at a posh polo event.

She was the guest of honour at this do, a security guard caught them at it and they ran off. 

I think the elastic may have gone in the cos as they are walking off they keep falling down, ooops!

Also this morning...

Rachel from Countdown by BigJohnHallamFM

Mother-In-Law from hell...

Can you ever let on to your partner that you don’t like their parents? I’ve had the weekend from hell with my Mother-In-Law. John and James have quite easily made their other halves aware they aren’t keen on the In-Laws. But how bad must your partner feel?!?!

Let me list a few things that happened this weekend…
1. She moaned that I laid in till 9.30 on Sunday morning. 9.30!!!!!!
2. Then made a comment that I had loads of washing to do, so better ‘Crack on with it’
3. Raked through my cupboards and draws looking for paper, I told her we didn’t have any to write a letter with, she still continued looking. IT’S MY HOUSE!! I KNOW WHAT WE DO AND DON’T HAVE!!
4.  Wouldn’t let me watch the film ‘Marley and Me’. She didn’t fancy it! Ahhhhhhh!!!


How do you get on with your In-Laws? And when should you tell that you can’t stand them, if ever???? I’d never tell my Stuie, he’d be heartbroken!

Also this morning...


Hallamster NOTW by BigJohnHallamFM

What a week!

This week on Big John @ Breakfast – Big John took a disastrous amount of time to guess the celeb on the Yes No Game – Joe Pasquale wasn’t too bothered though …

We announced that Pixie Lott is joining the growing line up for Hallam FM @  Tramlines…

Alex & Lucy from In Demand took over the show on Tuesday…

And Hallamster got himself his own sponsorship deal – it’s all a bit too toiletty and shouldn’t have happened… He’ll be back for a double dose on Monday morning when you wake up!



This Week by BigJohnHallamFM

Squeaky voiced funny bloke Joe Pasquale joined Big John @ Breakfast on Thursday – he was on the Celebrity Yes No Game. His son is about to join Hollyoaks – and Joe reckons he has the same voice as him. He should be easy to spot then. And as for Joe – he’s just finished a horror film with Keith Chegwin. No, really.


Tomorrow, It's my questions of the week in 'Michelle's question time'. Big John and Producer James impose a Google Ban Monday to Friday, tomorrow I get to ask what's been bugging me for the past few days.
Could you cope without the internet for a week? by BigJohnHallamFM

Liquor-ICE or ISH??

For the first time ever...
A) Myself and Big John have agreed on something AND
B) Producer James is WRONG!

Producer James was saying that ‘liquorice’, is pronounced how it is spelt. Liquor-ice. He is sooooooo wrong, it’s blatantly liquor-ish!


Producer James - on his own. by BigJohnHallamFM


What do you say?

Other things this morning…
Ecclesall Infant School starred in the spellings test.

Louise Stanley from Goldthorpe won tickets to ‘Party in the Park’… VIP style! She’ll be seeing JLS, The Wanted AND Ollie Murs! Nice!


Tomorrow… There will be a celebrity on Big Johns phone, find out who after 8am.

Are you common?

Well Done to everyone who took part in Race For Life yesterday, 6500 women ran in that blistering heat in the centre of Sheffield, raising money for Cancer Research UK. If you ran add your pics on our Facebook page, search ‘Hallam FM’

Will we see you at Tramlines, Sat 23rd July. It’s FREE! Pixie Lott was added to the line up this morning, find out more.


Do you think it’s common to keep your bedroom curtains closed throughout the day? Rach asked us in ‘what are the rules’. She wants to keep them closed to keep the heat and pollen out, but her boyfriend says it’s common? What do you think? Would you care if the neighbours made comment on whether your curtains had been opened? Isn’t it an old traditional thing that your curtains need opening before you leave the house? Let us know what you think below…

Jedwards new album...

Jedward have a new album out, if your thinking 'I wonder what kind of songs Jedward will be doing on the album?' There's a little taster above...

What have you missed this week then? Anything?
