It's Friday there's 6 whole weeks for you!

The kids break up for school today and the sun is coming out this weekend.  Two things to celebrate!

We caught up with Dean and Karen this morning, they played Date or Ditch yesterday and Dean chose line 2, and they were very diplomatic about the date.  This is just my speculation but I think they had a nice time but will only be meeting up as mates in the future.  Next week it's a very pretty lady from Sheffield choosing from lucky three men.  Register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

Today Nick Clegg faces our listeners face to face here in South Yorkshire, you can tell him your opinions and concerns.  If you haven't registered and been able to see him today you can hear parts of the discussion over the weekend on Hallam FM.

On Monday Hallamster will be giving his first clue out for his 'Celebrity Aiiii Test' you can win lots of tat from his cage.  There's a phone, wireless speakers and a sat nav rattling around in his cage.

Guess what - we're giving away a car!  More details on that next week on Big John @ Breakfast and we have ANOTHER announcement on Monday too.  It's just give give give with us ha ha!

Have a lovely weekend :)

Hot Dean plays Date or Ditch!

This morning it was Dean choosing the ladies and he went for Karen on line 2.  Dean is Scottish and new to the area and they're off to Zizzi's in Leopold Square for some VIP treatment and hopefully some lurrrvvvveeeee.  We'll be calling them at 8am to see how they got on tomorrow morning.

Ahhhh Fred!  I love him!  We chatted to him this morning, he called us to let us know how OAP date or Ditch has been since he played a couple of weeks ago.  He's desperately trying to get a night out with Lynda - she's told him she's in Tenerife - that old chesnut!

We have a massive announcement to make tomorrow morning at 8:30 and you could win tat out of Hallamster's cage just after 7:30.

By the way Batman 'The Dark Knight Rises' was amazing last night.  It's out in the cinema tomorrow and I'd strongly advise you to go and see it!  Best film I've seen in ages!

See you from 6 tomorrow, Janine xxxx

Missing legs ...

This morning we were talking about 'Lost Property!'  Things that have been found and returned here in South Yorkshire.  One guy found £200 in a cash machine and handed it back to the guy who lost it.  The guy was very generous and gave him £40 to say thank you - 20% isn't bad is it?  I think my favourite story was when someone found a prosthetic leg on the road and handed it into a chemist!  If you missed it listen again tomorrow at 6.

James has beaten me (again!) at the Spellings Test and out totals for the year are 19 to James and 17 to me.  I'll have to wait till the school holidays are over to give him a good thrashing.

Tomorrow morning it's Date or Ditch!  Feast your eyes on this hunk ...

This is our single man of the week.  If you want to play register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

See you tomorrow love me xx (Janine)

Nuts are good for you and I can prove it!

This morning we had Dr Christian Jessen on the Celebrity Yes No Game!  He's a lovely man and sounds a little bit posh.  We were quite surprised that he's still a practising GP and some of his patients get star struck when they come to the surgery.  If you missed it you can listen again at 6 tomorrow morning.  Oh he told us that nuts were good for us too ....

It's our last Spellings Test of the year tomorrow and it's with the school at the children's hospital in Sheffield!  It's a close one because Producer James is on 18 points and I'm on 17.  Hmmm I've just realised I can't possibly win unless it goes to sudden death.  You can guess along at home what our little lovelies are trying to spell.

I've just finished 50 Shades of Grey and I was really disappointed with the end!  Thanks for your reassuring messages telling me to buy the second book.  I'm onto it ladies and I've heard the Tesco tip off 2 for £7.  Happy Days!

Win tat with Hallamster tomorrow at 7:30.

See you in the morning.

Nipples!

Do you want to know why men have nipples?  I've always wondered that because men don't have to breast feed?  When we're embryos we're all girls as a template for the first 6 weeks and then either form into girls and then boys.  That was one of Big John's questions this morning after he had the Google Ban over the weekend.  We didn't have time to answer his final question which was 'Why does looking at a bright light when you feel a sneeze coming on, actually make you sneeze?'  If you can help him call us tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow morning we'll have a celebrity on the satellite and Big John has to guess who it is.  It could be anyone, an actor, singer, comedian, presenter and he can only ask questions that they can answer 'yes or no' to.  I reckon you could probably beat him if you're guessing along at home.

PLEASE guess Hallamster's Aiiii Test tomorrow, you could win a sat nav, wireless speakers for your ipod and a phone.  I can tell you it's not John Bishop, Gary Barlow, Ricky Tomlinson, Big John and you can guess after 7:30am tomorrow morning.

Well done to Debbie, she won tickets see the brand new Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises' and she'll be at the Yorkshire premiere this Wednesday at Cineworld.  I'm pleased she won them as she fell in a wheelie bin this weekend!

See you at 6 tomorrow.

Janine xx

Do you want to see the real Christina Grey ladies .. ?

This is the man we've been reading about, flying Anastacia Steele around in his massive chopper, issuing 20 page contracts of bizarre requests and he has the weirdest recreational room ever.  But at least now we can put a face to the errrm - well filth quite frankly!

There are still chances to win tickets to go and see the new Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises!'  The Yorkshire Premiere is next Wednesday in Sheffield at Cineworld and the only thing that stands between you and the tickets is a question.  Answer it correctly next Monday at 8:30 and yo could win yourself a family pass.

John and I are at Race For Life this Sunday in Sheffield - providing he's got his voice back!  We're looking forward to seeing you there and it looks like the weather's going to be alright too.

Can you help us with the Google Ban this Monday?  Big John will be putting his questions to you for your help to prove that South Yorkshire is better than the internet.

Have a good weekend!

Janine xx

Craig was so excited he nearly fell down the stairs!

It was Craig choosing from 3 lovely ladies this morning, however, he was so bowled over by Kirsty that he chose line number and they're off on a date to Nando's tonight on Eccy Road, YUM!  They're getting the full VIP treatment and will be quaffing Champers!  Find out how they get on tomorrow at 8 when we catch up with them both.

If you want to play we'll look after you, you'll have your own taxi to and from your house and get the full VIP treatment wherever you get whisked off to.  If you fancy meeting someone new apply now on our website www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

The Dark Knight Rises is the final film of the Christopher Nolan Batman Trilogy starring Christain Bale and Anne Hathaway.  If you're a big fan and want to take your family or friends then make sure you're listening at 8:30 tomorrow morning.

I'm thinking about skipping my afternoon nap today.  My dream traumatised me yesterday, it was about my boyfriend and Big John.  That's all I can divulge - I wasn't very happy about it in my dream or when I woke up - weird.  I think I maybe need to give 50 Shades of Grey alone because my dream was 50 Shades of wrong!

See you at 6.

Janine xx

I can't believe she bought a house!

This morning we were asking South Yorkshire what's the biggest purchase you've ever made behind your partner's back.  It started off at a weekend away in Amsterdam for about £300, then it went up to a car that cost £6,000 and then a house for £79,000!!

Date or Ditch is back tomorrow morning.  It's the men choosing the ladies this time and I love the fact it's so awkward it's brilliant.  If you want to play you can register anytime www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

Fancy going to see the brand new Batman film 'The Dark Knight Rises'?  If you do make sure you're listening at 8:30 tomorrow morning.

See you tomorrow at 6!

The delectable Joanna Page!

She's bloomin' lovely and she was on our Celebrity Yes No games this morning.  She's very bubbly and was chatting away to us about everything, nudity, Gavin & Stacey and her dog Daisy!  If you missed it listen again after 6 tomorrow.

Hallamster has a load of tat to giveaway from his cage.  Can you guess the celeb on his Ultimate 'I' test?

This morning we found out that Cliff and Tina from our 5 brides competition are pregnant.  That's her 10th child and they're over the moon!  This obviously means their wedding plans are on hold for the moment.

We have big news coming up in the show tomorrow morning ... TBC!

And finally don't forget it's the Spelling Test tomorrow morning.  Some little ones from our School of the Week will be spelling some words and James and I will battle it out to try and win!

See you at 6.

Janine xx

Guess Who!?

Tomorrow morning its our Celebrity 'Yes/No Game and they'll be a mystery celeb on the phone and Big John has to guess who's there.  We time him but see if you can beat him while you're listening.  It could be anyone!  We've had Jim Broadbent, Karen Brady, Carol Vorderman, John Thompson, Floella Benjamin, Marcus Pierre White .... etc

Thanks for your help this morning with my Google Ban questions they were about cheese, knuckles and speeding!  If you missed it make sure you listen after 6am tomorrow.

Hallamster is our talking Hamster and he's been collecting tatt in his cage.  He's got a phone in there, speakers and a sat nav amongst other things.  It's all yours if you can guess the celebrity on his Ultimate 'I' Test.  We play it just after 7:30 every morning.

See you in the morning from 6.

OAP Date or Ditch

I've got face ache from lauging so hard!  71 year old Fred took three lovely ladies on a date last night to the Showroom in Sheffield.  They had a brilliant time.  I hope you heard it this morning, it was absolutely priceless.  He's got all Jayne, Linda and Margaret's numbers now in case he wants to go out on dates with them and said he felt like Hugh Heffner from the Playboy Mansion.  Fred I salute you!

It's me that's got the Google Ban this weekend. I can't tell you how frustrating it is when you have a question and you can't use the internet.  Please give me a hand on Monday and help us prove that South Yorkshire is better than the internet.

Fancy some tat from Hallamster's cage?  His Ultimate 'I' Test is back on Monday after 7:30 and if you can guess the celebrity then it's all yours. 

Have a lovely weekend and we'll all be back on Monday.

Janine xx

4 Shades of Grey!

I really hope you heard OAP Date or Ditch this morning!  I was crying with laughter, it was so funny!  If you missed it make sure you listen from 6.
Jack Lawrence wrote on twitter 'This date or ditch on @hallamfm doesn't get much funnier = class! Already looking forward to tomorrows feedback!' and Jools wrote @hallamfm I have just laughed soooo much at that !! The woman with the hairy back lol :-)    

Fred couldn't make his mind us so we let him choose all three ladies.  Jayne even told us about her hairy back, the fact she's broken her toe on a night out and she rides a motorbike!  Personally I can't wait to hear what happened in the morning!  Don't miss it at 8am.

Hallamster is back on tomorrow morning.  If you want to win his tat from his cage have a guess at his Ulitimate Aiii test. 

See you in the morning!

This morning we had the wonderful Carol Vorderman on the show.  She told us some juicy gossip about her Countdown days.  If you missed it listen again after 6am tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow the competition is on ... It's the Spellings Test and it's not how to spell it's what they are spelling?  Our school of the week will be on the show and some young kids will be spelling words and James and I have to guess the words.  We get very competitive and you can play along while you're listening.

Big John had the Google Ban over the weekend and thanks if you called in to help him this morning.  One of his questions was about how much things used to cost.  can you believe in the 80's you could get a Mars Bar and a can of pop for 20p?!  Bargain.

Tomorrow morning it's the 'Yes No Game' where we have a celebrity on the phone and Big John has to guess who it is on the satelitte.  Guess along at home.

Shall we let 71 year old Fred play Date or Ditch this week?  Vote on our facebook page www.facebook.com/hallamfm if you think we should let him?

See you in the morning,

Janine xx

50 Shades of Grey ...

It's taking over my life.  I started the book yesterday and I can't put it down.  I'm either at chapter 3 or 4 and apparently it starts to get rude around chapter 8!  I might just lock myself in the house this weekend after a drinking session tonight ha ha.  I think I'm going to have to start reading chapters to Big John on air- as long as he doesn't enjoy it too much that is!

It wasn't love unfortunately for Richard and Katherine on Date or Ditch and they knew there wasn't a spark as soon as they met.  They did enjoy the food though at La Mammas so all wasn't lost!  If you want Fred to go on a date for OAP Date or Ditch make sure you go on our facebook page to vote www.facebook.com/hallamfm

Our winner for Big John's Fun in the Sun will be chosen at random tonight at 6pm so make sure you get your entry in.  Imagine £1,000 to design your own holiday!  You can go wherever you want in the world?!  Good luck.

Big John HAS got the Google Ban this weekend.  I thought he did last weekend but he had a stripper up his sleeve (not literally!) for my birthday.  So let's prove that South Yorkshire is better than the internet and give him a hand on Monday morning at 8.

Have a lovely weekend and we'll be back on Monday morning.

Stolen Money!

Poor Jenny came on the show this morning to tell us her storyabout backpacking in India on her own.  The cash machines there keep your card in the machine once you've taken your money out in case you want to do another transaction.  So out of habit when Jenny withdrew her money she walked off.  She returned 30 seconds later (too late) £400 had been taken out of her account.  She was stranded and naturally called her Mum.  Thanks for all your calls on bank scams over the past two days.

Richard the Chef goes out on a date tonight with line number two Katherine and it's all down to our little game Date or Ditch.  One of Richard's friends predicted the future apparently and said he should choose line 2, so he did!  There off to La Mama's tapas bar for a lovely evening tonight.  Listen at 8 to see if they got on.

Hallamster still has all of his random tat to giveaway from his cage and all you have to do to win it is find out who's saying 'I' on his Ultimate I test.  I'll give you a clue it's not John Bishop.

Tomorrow is it going to be you that wins the £1,000 holiday?  Have you entered Big John's Fun in the Sun.  If you haven't make sure you do it before 5 o'clock tomorrow and you could be jetting off to the sunshine this summer to enjoy yourself.

See you in the morning!

Janine x

Bank Scams!

So, Big John has been ridiculing me about nearly getting ripped off.  I got one of those phishing e-mails requesting that ask you enter to your bank details or they'll suspend my account.  Stupidly I did it and then got that horrible stomach churn as I realised what I'd done!  Idiot!  So I quickly called my bank to change all my passwords etc.  I'm still very annoyed at myself!  So we were asking for your stories this morning and it was nice to know I wasn't on my own.

I won the Spellings Test this morning - YIPPEE!  The kids were so cute - bless them.  The scores are very close, Producer James is on 17 and I'm on his heels with 16 points.

It's Date or Ditch tomorrow morning and it's 3 ladies this week fighting for the affections of one hunky man.  Last week Emma said John was really fit and a Usher lookalike and they went on a second date.  I hope it's as successful for them tomorrow.  Fancy it?  http://www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

How long would it take you to save up for a holiday worth £1,000?  Save yourself the hassle and win Big John's Fun in the Sun competition.  Listen throughout the day for your chance to win!

See you at 6,

Janine xxxx

An exciting day for South Yorkshire!

The Olympic Torch has made it's way through Barnsley, Sheffield, Rotherham and Doncaster and the atmosphere has been amazing!  I saw it go down Eccy Road last night and everywhere was so busy and everyone was cheering.  I hope you got to see it or see it today.

This morning we had Ray Mears on the show, what a top bloke!  Can't believe he had a crocdile waltz past him .... If you missed it listen tomorrow morning after 6.

Fancy a free holiday?  Big John wants to give you a £1,000 to jet off to wherever you fancy!  Lets face it our weather has been rubbish and imagine lying by the pool with the sun warming your back with a cheeky cocktail next to you ....  Just answer one simple question and it could be yours!

It's the Spelling Test tomorrow!  it's not how to spell it's what they're spelling.  The kids from the School of the Week will be spelling words for James and I to guess.  Play along while you listen and if you know the answer cal us.

See you in the morning love me and the gang xxx

Can you believe what Big John got her for her birthday?!

IT'S FRIDAY! The week is over and there's no more work to do ...

I'm SO happy!  John chose Emma on Date or Ditch yesterday, they went on their date last night and guess what .... ?  They hit it off!  They were too nervous to eat their meal but said the food was lovely and then carried on drinking around a few bars in Broomhill.  This Sunday they're watching the England match together.  Could this be a budding romance?  I told you they were well suited. 

Hallamster's I Test is still yet to be won!  Make sure you listen this Monday for your chance to win the tat in his cage.

Well done to Natalie Gibbs, she won tickets this morning to see the re-make of Jaws at Cineworld.

Big John has the Google Ban this weekend, can you help him with his questions on Monday please?  We're trying to prove that South Yorkshire is better than the internet.

Fancy £1,000 to spend on a holiday?  Whatever you do make sure you're listening at 8am Monday morning and it could be yours!

Have a superb weekend, I know the weather's rubbish but I'm sure you'll make the most of it :).

Janine x x x

Emma & Joe

We've got SO many ladies that want to play Date or Ditch that we thought it was only fair to share the love.  So this week and last week the men were choosing the ladies and chilled out Joe picked PE teacher Emma.  They sounded well suited and they're off out on their date tonight so find out how they got on at 8 tomorrow.

Thanks for all your lovely messages about my spider experience yesterday.  I'm a bit gutted that I was too scared to hold it but it's more of a phobia as opposed to just being scared.  Anyway I was a bit of a wuss but it could've eaten me alive so lets leave it there shall we?

Want a load of tat out of Hallamster's cage tomorrow?  Play his Ultimate I Test just after 7:30 tomorrow morning.

See you tomorrow xxx

(One more sleep till the weekend!  Wooooooo hooooooooo.)

Spiders!!!

Today I'm not going to write anything else apart from this :Please press play!

The End x

Incy WINCY!

So my fate is coming ... Tomorrow I meet the tarauntula and all I know is that I have a task to do whilst holding it.  I am a mixture of emotions, I think it's about time to face my fears but at the same time I'm scared and nervous.  I don't know how I'm going to react but I'm sure you'll find out with me at 8!  #notgoingtosleepawinktonight

Did you hear John Bishop this morning!  He had to make an apology for a little slip up he made.  If you missed it you can listen again tomorrow morning after 6am.

Tomorrow it's the Spellings Test!  Listen out for our school of the week spelling words out for James and I and we have to guess what they're spelling.  We know sometimes we're stupid and you're probably shouting at the radio but it's fun to play along at home.

Hallamster's I Test continue's and the prizes in his cage are still up for grabs so if you want to win listen just after 7:30.

Have a lovely day and we'll see you in the morning!

Janine xx

Help Me!

So, Big John and I both passed our GSCE's with an A and we had to do General Studies this morning to find a winner/loser.  I was the loser and I found out my forfeit ......
I'm petrified of spiders and either tomorrow or Wednesday I've got to hold a tarantula.  I know most people are scared of spiders but I have a genuine fear of even small ones and I've had it since I was little.  I'm going to be beside myself and I don't think I'm going to sleep tonight ...

Well done to all the ladies that did the Race for Life in Rotherham yesterday.  Big John and I went down there yesterday and the atmosphere was electric!  Everyone had made an effort and were dressed in pink from tutus, bunny ears, butterfly wings and feather boas!  The photos should be on our website in the next 24 hours.

John Bishop comedy legend is on the show tomorrow from 8 o clock and we can't wait to chat to him. 

See you in the morning!

Janine xx

ps if I'm sick and off work over the next couple of days then you know what's happening ha ha.

We passed!

I have passed my Maths GCSE with an A and Big John passed his with an A.  At first I thought it was cause for celebration and that it meant there was no forfeit because we drew.  But no, it was never going to be that simple was it!?  Now we have to take General Studies on Monday and unfortunately for me general knowledge/studies is my weak point.  Hmmmm.

John Bishop next week on Big John @ Breakfast by Bigjohn Hallamfm on Mixcloud

Big John and I are in Rotherham for Race For Life on Sunday so if you're down there come and say hello!  I'm looking forward to it ladies so make sure you dress up - pink tutus at the ready.

It's your last chance to win a £500 shopping spree today so listen out for the question for your chance to win.

Comedian John Bishop is on the show this Tuesday at 8, I can't wait, I love a good laugh.

Have a lovely weekend, stuff the revision I'm going to wing it!

See you on Monday xxxxx

The Results ....

Dooms day is coming.  Big John versus Janine continues and this week we both had to re-sit our GCSE's.  John took his Geography yesterday and I took my Maths exam today.  I know absolutely nothing about Geography which means I really don't know which one of us is going to win?  I know I definitely got one question wrong this morning and that was about percentages.  THE LOSER HAS TO DO A FORFEIT THAT WILL BE REVEALED TOMORROW ARRGGH.  Sorry for the shouty capitals - I'm scared!

After todays winner, tomorrow is your last chance to win a guilt free shopping trip in Meadowhall where you could go wild with £500!  Is it clothes, a holiday, a food fest or a trip to the Apple Shop?  You choose what you spend the money on and listen out to the question that we sat after 7 o'clock tomorrow morning.

This morning Adam was doing the choosing on Date or Ditch and he chose line 1 Alison.  It was instant attraction over ermm .... cats!?  He asked her if she could be an animal what would she be and she said a cat.  She dropped on there as Adam had just bought 2 kittens and Alison has 4 cats - it was the felines that swung it for her.  Find out how they get on on their date tonight at 8 o'clock on the show.

See you in the morning!

Janine xxxxx

GCSE's!

Wow, Big John did his exam live on-air this morning and it was absolutely petrifying.  I can put my hand on my heart and say that I wouldn't of got any of them right which is unnerving, especially as I'm taking mine tomorrow ....  Mr Sale talked him through the questions very patiently and I guess it will be the same when I take my Maths exam tomorrow.  I'M SCARED!!!!!! HELP!

Date or Ditch is on tomorrow morning and we've changed it around.  We have so many ladies wanting to play the game that we thought it was only fair to turn the tables and have three ladies chatting up one man.  If you want to play listen tomorrow morning at 8 or register now at www.hallamfm.co.uk/date.

Fancy £500 to spend on whatever you fancy in Meadowhall?  Answer a question and it could be yours.  We'll be giving it away before the end of the day and if you don't win don't worry we'll have a new question tomorrow.

See you in the morning.

Janine xx

I'M SCARED!!!!

So, the saga continues and now we have found out that in the challenge 'Big John Versus Janine' Big John has to take Geography.  Rather him than me, I got chucked out of my Geography classes for talking to Peter Watson.  So tomorrow Big John will be taking GCSE Geography live on air.  I have to write his potential forfeits down - god help him.

Tomorrow I also find out what subject I'm taking.  I'm not going to lie - I'm bricking it!

It's the Spellings Test tomorrow and we'll have some cuties spelling some words and James and I will be playing against each other.  It's currently 16 to James and 14 to me so I need the points ...

Hallamster's Aiiii test continues tomorrow, it's ridiculous and I love it!  Listen tomorrow morning at 7:30 to win some goodies.

We've flipped reversed Date or Ditch and this week the men are doing the choosing.  Fancy a hot date guys?  Register now www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

See you in the morning and cross your fingers for me for tomorrow when I find out what my subject is.

Janine xx

We're back!

Ahh it was so nice to be re-united with my radio husbands this morning and Hallamster of course.  Well it was nice until we heard an announcement about 'Big John Versus Janine.'  So far we've taken our driving tests and both passed (John clearly beat me on points but I would never admit that on air and I know he doesn't read this!)  The next challenge we face is retaking our GCSE's - WHAT!?!  We did ours years ago, I don't know if we can revise and I don't know what subject I'm doing ....  I'm terrified!  Please god let me win or he's going to be gloating all year.

Fancy blowing £500 in Meadowhall?!  Just make sure you're listening throughout the day to win.  By the way we're giving £500 away per day so it could be you tearing around the shops, booking a holiday, going to the Cinema or maybe stuffing your face?  Listen for your chance to win.

Which celebrity could be on the Celebrity Yes No Game tomorrow morning!?  Big John has to guess and he can only ask questions that merit a yes or no to. 

Hallamster has got his Ultimate Aiii Test and you could win prizes too!  Make sure you listen just after 7:30.

See you in the morning.

Janine xx

Elaine Won!

This morning Elaine from Wadsley became £2,000 richer when she won Big John's Ultimate Ear Test!  It's been bugging South Yorkshire and me for 2 weeks and she finally got it just before 8 o'clock.  Her husband Chris is a plumber so he must hear that sound every day and he guessed it and told his wife to call.  The answer is when the mixer tap on the bath is pulled up to swap it over to the shower.  There's a video of the sound being made on our website.

Have a lovely Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend and enjoy half term if you're off.

We'll be back a week on Monday with all our usual favourites!  Date or Ditch, The Spelling Test, Hallamster and mostly Big John taking the mick out of me!

My sisters are house sitting for me because I'm off to Egypt so please make sure they don't have any parties for me.  Thanks!

See you soon as long as I get through customs with all the stuff John's asked me to take through!

Big love Janine xx

Waaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Two people this morning got SO close on Big John's Ultimate Ear Test at 8:30!  There has been another clue and it seems like everyone is on the heels of the answer.  Producer James knows what it is and we don't so I keep on getting really nervous every time the game is on!

Are you a big Coldplay fan!?  We have a chance for you to go and see them live AND meet Chris Martin and the band tomorrow morning!  Make sure you're listening tomorrow morning at 8 for your chance to meet them on their Mylo Xyloto tour.

Kirsteen and Tony are going on their date tonight after we set them up this morning on Date or Ditch.  Will it be love or will they not get on!?  Find out tomorrow ....

In the meantime make sure you've got the radio on for your chance to win £2,000.  You might have the right answer and have to call when the presenter opens the lines.  It's getting very tense!

Janine xx

Another clue!

So the 1st clue for Big John's Ultimate ear Test was 'Above or Below?!'  And you can hear the second clue throughout the day just before the game on Hallam FM.  If you want to hear the sound as many times as you want our Ear Doctors are at Asda in Handsworth so go and badger them to listen again and again.  It's worth £2,000!

Tomorrow it's Date or Ditch!  One lucky lady will have 3 men fighting over her to take her out on a date.  Make sure you listen at 8 o'clock because it's brilliantly awkward .....

Hallamster is giving tickets away to Zippos Circus every day at 7:45 so listen out for how you can win them for a free family day out in the school holidays.

This morning I was telling Big John & James about the argument with my boyfriend over our sofa bed that I've given my mate.  They were siding with him (again!)  Ridiculous .... I was definitely in the right about this one and I stormed off in Meadowhall.  It was a shopping tactic so he wasn't trailing behind me ....

See you in the morning!

The Spellings Test!

It's back tomorrow morning and Producer James and I go head to head!  I think he's in the lead at the moment so I'm going to try and thrash him tomorrow morning.

Be careful with hoax e-mails that appear to be from your bank.  I got caught out yesterday and stupidly put my details in and spent an hour on the phone last night changing passwords and all sorts.  What an idiot I am!  It was on my phone so I didn't notice the dodgy browser so just be careful.

This morning I was grinning like a Cheshire Cat because we had on the wonderful Floella Benjamin that used to be on Playschool with Humpty Dumpty.  She's an absolute legend and yo can catch our chat with her after 6 tomorrow morning if you missed it.

There's been a clue for Big John's Ultimate Ear Test and the clue is 'above or below!'  I haven't got a clue what it means but try and tie it in with your guess to see if you've got it right?  It has to be won by Friday so make sure your persistent and get on the phone lines as soon as we open them so you don't miss out on that £2,000!

Good luck!

Janine xx

£2,000 anyone?

The competition just got a lot very exciting!  We've doubled the cash from £1,000 to £2,000, tomorrow the clues start and if we get to Friday and it the money still hasn't been won then we keep going and going until someone gets the right answer and gets all that money before the bank holiday weekend!

We have a celebrity on the phone tomorrow and Big John has to guess who it is on the phone.  The thing is they can only answer 'yes or no' to his questions and we time him to see how long it takes him to guess it right!  Will he step up to the challenge or will you guess who it is first while you're listening?!

Hallamster is giving you the opportunity to win tickets Zippo's Circus at Endcliffe Park next week.  If you want to win them then make sure you're listening at 7:45am.

We've been hearing some funny stories about getting locked out of the house this morning.  One poor ladies boyfriend (bloomin Karl!) promised to be at home when she got back from running the Sheffield half marathon.  He was at the pub and she had no keys, was tired and too hot in the sun.  If you've got a good story about getting locked out we want to hear from you!

See you in the morning at 6!

Love Janine xxx

It's back!

Big John's Ultimate Ear Test is back and it's already worth £1000!  This week across South Yorkshire we've got Ear Doctors armed with the sound so you can listen to it as many times as you want!  If you don't get to see them then make sure you're listening to Hallam FM throughout the day.  We play the game at twenty to the hour from 6am to 7pm.

Tomorrow play along with the celebrity 'Yes No Game.'  We'll be playing at 8am, Producer James lines up a celebrity via satellite and the celeb can only answer yes or no until he guesses who they are.  Play along at home.

This Wednesday it's Jessie J at breakfast!  There's been quite a lot said about her in the press recently so we'll get to the bottom of it. It'll be nice to have another feisty girl on the show.

An important message from Fat John by BigJohnHallamFM See you tomorrow at 6!

Janine x

I could actually burst at the seams .....

Did you hear it this morning - Big John's Ultimate Ear Test was an absolute nail biter.  The first person ever got close to the answer.  I couldn't believe my ears when I heard that Stacey was close.  Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!  I want to know what it is and I want someone to be a thousand pounds richer.

Next week Jessie J is going to be on the show, I'm actually quite giddy about it because she seems quite feisty.

A stunt-rider gets the date! by BigJohnHallamFM

We'll catch up with them tomorrow morning at 8 to find out whether we have another success story on our hands.

Big John's Ultimate Ear Test still hasn't been guessed ....  It cracks me up because everyone we speak to says they have the right answer.  Yours might be the right guess though and it could win you £1000!  We open the phone lines around half past the hour between 6am - 7pm but you need to make sure you're listening so you've got more chance of getting through. 

It's only nearly bloomin Friday!!!  See you in the morning - Janine xx

It was sleeping!

Amy on the Spellings Test was mega cute this morning and James and I were being thick and couldn't work out what she was spelling.  We eventually got there with a clue from Big John and the word she was trying to spell was 'sleeping!'

Tomorrow it's Date or Ditch.  Last weeks couple were a success and have been out on 4 dates in the past week!  Emma and Michael also met on Hallam FM and they're still together - we told you it works!  Register now for your chance to play www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

Hasta manana,

Janine xxxx

£1,000 .... What would you spend it on!?

Big John's Ultimate Ear Test has gone up again and it now stands at £1,000.  What would you spend it on?  Holidays, the kids, clothes, bills?  It really is up to you what you blow the cash.  Some people have got to the stage where they don't even care about the cash they just want to know what it is!  Listen Monday - Friday from 6am - 7pm and the more wrong guesses you hear the better the chance of you guessing it right!

Thanks for helping me this morning with the Google Ban.  We got that many calls we've had to roll two of the questions over to tomorrow.  They are 'Do dogs speak a universal language?  I was watching Britain's Got Talent on Saturday and when Pudsey won I thought would a French dog understand an English dog?  Also on the news today there was a story about Virgin Atlantic being able to let people make calls in the air during their flight.  I want to know why you can't use your phone in flight mode during take off?

http://soundcloud.com/bigjohnhallamfm/big-john-breakfast-press-play by BigJohnHallamFM

Tomorrow morning we'll have a celebrity on trying to fox Big John on our 'Celebrity Yes No Game.'  Guess along at home at 8am and see if you can beat him.

See you in the morning!

Janine x

I think we have a success story on our hands!

Last night Katherine and Mark went out on a date to Loch Fyne after hooking up on Date or Ditch yesterday.  She was after a rough around the edges no nonsense man and it sounds like that's what she got.  They've swapped numbers and Mark said he got lucky and they would recommend Date or Ditch to meet someone!

We have a BIG announcement to make on Monday as long as you don't get Big John's Ulitmate Ear Test right today. 

Monday Monday Monday Monday Monday Monday by BigJohnHallamFM

HELP!!!!  I've got the Google Ban over the weekend and I'm going to need South Yorkshires help and wisedom on Monday at 8 o clock and no doubt it'll be daft questions that come to me over the weekend.

By the way if you can sing make sure you go to The Owlerton Stadium this weekend as you could win £1000 in our competition http://www.hallamfm.co.uk/win/grandkaraoke/

Have a lovely weekend.  I'll be back on Sunday night and my lovely radio partners in crime will be back on Monday morning xxx

I want a masculine man who takes less time to get ready than me!

This morning Katherine chose Mark for her date tonight and I've got a hunch they're going to hit it off.  She likes manly men, he's got a skin head and she likes men who don't take long to get ready.  Surely this is a match made in heaven?!  Find out how they get on tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock

Could it be love by BigJohnHallamFM

We're nearing the end of the second week of Big John's Ultimate Ear Test and we still don't know what it is!?  Everyone is certain that they have the right answer but we still don't know what it is and I really want to know now ...  Keep your guesses coming in - we play every hour at twenty to from 6am till 18:40 pm.

See you in the morning at 6!

Janine xx

Ps it's nearly the weekend - wooooo!

Double Date or Ditch!

Unfortunately Hayley and John weren't a success story.  Their date was postponed because hayley's son was poorly so they went out last night.  They had a nice time though so it's always worth a go!

I absolutely love listening to it when the men are selling themselves to one lady and really trying to win her over for a date.  We'll be playing again tomorrow morning at 8 o clock so make sure you're listening and if you fancy going on go to www.hallamfm.co.uk/date

Big John's Ulitmate Ear Test is on throughout the day and all you need to do is identify what the sound is.  We're up to £750 in the prizefund and it could be yours.  We play every hour at twenty to so don't call until we open the phonelines on air.  It's normally around half past that they open so good luck!

Fancy winning some tickets to see The Voice on Tour in Sheffield?  Listen at 7:45 to Hallamster and he'll tell you how to win.

Fingers Harrison learnt something new too ....

Big John's Baby discovers something new... by BigJohnHallamFM

See you at 6!  Janine xx

Spaced out Tuesdays ...

How are you feeling after the bank holiday weekend?  It always feels like a Monday after a bank holiday and we all feel a bit jaded but the good news is we're closer to the weekend!

Tomorrow we have some little lovelies from Herringthorpe Junior School in Rotherham spelling some words for us on the spellings test.  James and I are rubbish and I got robbed last week, I think John was trying to make James win.  I'm determined to win tomorrow at 8.

Hayley and John had to postpone their date on Date or Ditch in March because Hayley's son was poorly.  He's better now though and their off out tonight so we'll catch up with them tomorrow to see if it's true lurrvvvveeee!

Guess who we had on this morning?


The prize fund went up this morning to £750 for Big John's Ultimate Ear Test. 

The main question we get asked is - When can I call?

You can call every hour and the phones are locked until around half past the hour.  You have to listen to the radio to find out when we open them.

See you from 6! Janine xxx

Friday (Bank Holiday Weekend!)

Tomorrow morning can you identify the sound on Big John's Ulitmate Ear Test!?  It's worth £500 and it's driving everyone mad!  That one simple everday sound can win you loads of cash.  i don't even know what it is and to be honest I'm glad I don't.  I don't want the responsibilty!

Fancing seeing The Voice UK on tour!?  If you do make sure you're listening at 7:45 to win and Hallamster will tell you how (and he'll probably tell you a little joke too!)



And how will our Date or Ditch couple Lorna and Lee get on - find out at 8am?

See you tomorrow from 6 xx

But I think I should've won ....

I'm not going to lie this morning I felt properly conned.  Not only did I get the word fraction right in the Spellings Test this morning but I buzzed in at exactly the same time as James.  Toys out of the pram 'IT'S NOT FAIR!' ahhhh I feel better now ..

It's Date or Ditch tomorrow morning!  One lovely lady having 3 guys fight for her affection.  If you haven't heard it before it's so brilliantly awkward that I bite my nails a lot.  I love hearing the guys sell themselves - they only have 60 seconds to do it between the three of them and it cracks me up.  Make sure you listen at 8.

CASH + Hamster + Date Or Ditch = Big John by BigJohnHallamFM

Big John's Ultimate Ear Test is back tomorrow morning.  It's driving me mad and I haven't got a clue what it is.  One little hint for you, don't call till half past the hour.  When we say the phone lines are open that's the only opportunity to call so it's fair for everybody.  We can't accept phone calls at any other time.

See you in the morning!

Janine xxx 

Gaynor is the WINNER!!!!!!

Me and Gaynor are off to Eton in Sheffield next week to celebrate 25 years in fashion in style!  I'm going to help her blow £1,000 on clothes, then we're off to Creator Hair to get her hair restyled and then Chanel in John Lewis will do her make up before a photo shoot at Venture Photography South Yorkshire.  Lucky Gaynor - we are going to have a lot of fun!

Next week Big John's Ultimate Ear Test starts at 8 o clock.  All I can tell you is it may earn you a lot of money.  Make sure you don't miss it.

I'm scared, I'm going on a hen do this weekend.  We're doing wine tasting and off out on Saturday ...

Have a lovely weekend and we'll see you on Monday morning at 6.

It's Big Cook Little Cook!

So Big John has had a lot of fun there 'outing' me and my boyfriend.  It is in fact Big Cook Little Cook.  So I'm going to answer any questions you may have at this point.  He is good at cooking but I did teach him, he isn't as tidy in real life as he is on the show.  I have made him do the tea towel dance, he doesn't wear an apron around the house and the main question is what is 'Big Cook Little Cook?'  It's a cooking tv show for kids that has appeared on Cbeebies and BBC 2.  Here is a link to it if you want to be nosey http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNKfTrrJVJI

Tomorrow we have our last family ticket to give away for Dancing on Ice.  Can you help Hallamster with his homework question?

But seriously who is it ... !?

It's a rollover for the stragest competition I've ever heard of 'Which TV presenter is Janine going out with?' It's not Dick from Dick or Dom, it's not Steve Backshaw and it's not Mark from Sam and Mark.  Please somebody guess it and put me out of my misery .....

Round 2 Which kids TV presenter is Janine going out with by BigJohnHallamFM

Tomorrow we all get very giddy just before 8 o clock as it's Date or Ditch!!!!  One woman gets to choose from 3 men all trying their best to please her with only 60 seconds between the three of them.  if she still hasn't spoken to man number three but has ditched the first and the second man then she HAS to go on a date with man number 3.

Listen out tomorrow for how you and me could be going on a £1,000 shopping spree at Eton.  We'll also doll you up with a brand new haircut, your make up done AND a photo shoot.

See you in the morning from 6.


Janine xx

So who is it?

I honestly don't see why anyone would want to know who my boyfriend is but that's the game we played this morning!  He's a kids tv presenter and all I'm allowed to tell you is that it isn't Stephen Mulhern, Sam from Sam & Mark or the Chuckle brothers!  Listen after 8 tomorrow morning for another game - there's some goodies in it for you if you get the right guess.

Which KIDS TV presenter is Janine Dating by BigJohnHallamFM

Tomorrow morning we will have a celebrity on the line at 8 o clock and Big John has to guess who it is on our 'Celebrity Yes No Game!' 

http://soundcloud.com/bigjohnhallamfm/tuesday-6-10am-big-john by BigJohnHallamFM

See you in morning.

Janine x

We passed but he beat me!!!!

So we both scored the same amount of points on our driving test but Big John beat me (only by a smidgen obviously!)  I was gutted but at leats now I can drive the company cars, I was so pleased I left the show early and took one around the block!  Thanks to Lookers for lending us a car and to Bill Plant for lending us Rob to observe our 'amazing' driving skills.

After the Easter School holidays we have an amazing competition with Eton.  One lucky listener will get a make over and I'll be coming shopping with you for the day.  They'll also be chances to win designer handbags.

Big John and Producer James are off for the week now.  I'll be in tomorrow at 10am (I've got a lie in for passing my test!)  I'll also be joining Lloydie for breakfast from next Tuesday. 

See you in the morning.

Janine x

Woooooo hoooooo 4 points!

So yesterday Big John beat me by a point and luckily today I beat him by one with my reverse park!  So currently we're on 9 points each and tomorrow we find out who beat who in the driving test!  I feel so nervous when we're getting the results and this morning I yelped with excitement.

Date or Ditch this morning was slightly different.  We had Matt from Donny on from Take Me Out on ITV.  he chose Laura and they're off on their date tonight.  Listen at 8 tomorrow morning to find out how they got on.

Hallamster's back in the morning with tickets to see the Chuckle Brothers in Rotherham at two tomorrow afternoon.

See you tomorrow at 6.

Janine xx

To me to you ...

This morning we had the Chuckle Brothers on!  I LOVED watching them when I was little.  Win tickets to see them in Rotherham all this week with Hallamster just after 7:30.

I tried not to show it this morning but I'm absolutely gutted that John beat me by a point in his 3 point turn.  I was looking in the mirrors I promise!  Oh well, hopefully he'll drop a point tomorrow.  If I don't beat him then I won't be allowed to use the company cars :(.

Putting the GREAT into Wednesday by BigJohnHallamFM

It's a special edition of Date or Ditch tomorrow!  Matt from Doncaster was on Take Me Out the past 2 Saturdays and he'll be choosing from three gorgeous girls tomorrow morning at 8 - don't miss it!!

Driving Test Results - gulp!

So this morning we found out we're being given our driving test results slowly and painfully day by day.  If I'm honest I'm a bit annoyed because John and I scored the same amout of points for our emergency stop even though his phone was ringing grrrr.  So find I'll find out tomorrow how many points I got for one of our other manoeuvres last week - eeek.

Driving Test - The latest. by BigJohnHallamFM
