We are back...

Big John @ Breakfast is back from our holidays.
Tomorrow another kid from South Yorkshire is gonna ‘Learn me some brains’. They give me 3 facts, one is made up, and I have to pick the lie. So far it’s 2-2. This is the decider, no pressure then in getting it right. 

AND on Thursday… Big John has some MASSIVE news for South Yorkshire at 8… Ooooow exciting!

Diamonds, Farmers and Jack Dee

Well I don’t know about you, but I’m blummin glad it’s Friday. I’m shattered. We had a week off last week, a full week has killed me. A lay in tomorrow me thinks, whoop!

We had loads of calls helping with my Friday Questions. Thanks you lovely people. You helped me with..

QUESTION 1: What are diamonds? Ian from PA Jewellery in Commonside helped. I know they are pretty and I want a princess cut one, when my fella proposes, but what are they? Ian told me Diamonds are crystallised forms of carbon, and you can’t find them in Europe. Boooo!
QUESTION 2: When farmers are on their tractor and drop bits of hay off the back, do they have to go back and pick it up? Farmer Rob from Hooton Roberts said apparently not, they just leave it. One word… Littering!
QUESTION 3: Did Jack Dee win Celeb Big Brother a couple of years ago? Yes, he did. I’ve won that argument with my boyfriend, he said he didn’t. Ha! Other winners… Mark Owen, Bez, Chantelle Houghton, Shilpa Shetty, Ulrika Jonsson, and Alex Reid.


Did you see the spider that Big John caught yesterday, it was huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge!!!





Have a lovely weekend peeps x

I'm alreeeeet

It’s The Kids 2- Me 2 on the challenge, ‘Learn Michelle some Brains’. 
11 year old Millie from Dinnington challenged me today. She gave me 3 facts, one was a fake, I had to pick the fake. I could kick myself… I knew the answer but stupidly picked the wrong one.
Millie said…


80% of pictures online are of naked ladies.
The sun loses 360million tonnes of itself every year
Mick Hucknalls Dad invented Tipp-ex


I said Millie was fibbing about the pictures online, obviously it was Mick Hucknalls Dad, he didn’t invent Tipp-ex! She won.

Also this morning…

Draco Malfoy sings???

Did you hear this song this morning?

One of the main characters in Harry Potter has a song out, Tom Felton who plays Draco Malfoy has done this what do you reckon?



Big John thinks it’s rubbish but the more I listen the more I like it!

Its called 'Hawaii', he’s hinted in the past he wanted to get into music, he signed a record deal with an independent label last year.


Also this morning, I let myself down. Little Alex from Woodthorpe fooled me in ‘Learn Michelle some brains.’ She gave me 3 facts, one of them made up. She fooled me, apparently footballers DO run on average 6 miles during a match, Scuba Divers CAN’T trump when they get to 33ft under water, and you DON’T lose more body heat out of your head. I thought you did. Well done Alex for fooling me.

Bad times...

I got put in the naughty book twice this morning, firstly because I said the word beginning with ‘K’, that means your tired. I don’t think that’s bad? Then I told Big John and Producer James what happened at the petrol station on Saturday. The man behind me shouted 'fanny!' He'd just put diesel in his unleaded car, Bad times... Apparently I can’t say the word ‘Fanny’ either, but that’s what the man said!

Over the weekend, Hallamster made his own little conveyor belt, like the Generation Game with Brucie had, but that shows wasn’t made with yogurt pots, old tights and a blow torch…dangerous! Bekky Hopworth from Bolton on Dearne played his game, guessing what he put on, she won £500 to spend in Currys. You can play tomorrow after 8.30am.


Also this morning…


Relephant - £500!!! by BigJohnHallamFM
