To enter the competition, contestants will need to listen to 1Xtra during the above shows for a ‘cue to call’.
The ‘cue to call’ track for the competition will be revealed during each of the above shows.
When the ‘cue to call’ is played any listeners who want to enter must call 0370 412 1111. Listeners cannot enter by any other method. Standard geographic charges from landlines and mobiles will apply.
5. The phone lines will be open for 15 minutes after which the liveliest and most entertaining two callers will be put through to the studio with another caller reserved as backup.

Anything attempted after this time will not be accepted.
The caller who recalls the most amount of items, will win.
If caller 1 & 2 recall the same number of items the tickets will go to the caller who most accurately guessed the closest figure in a tie breaker question that they will have answered off air.
