Yes and no. While 'Troublemaker' and 'Heart Skips A Beat' test quite well, 'Right Place Right Time' and 'Oh My Goodness' don't.

Very few will know the presenters certainly won't know, probably looking at the producers of Toby and Matt's shows and some of the bosses and that will be about it

I've never been much of a fan of Olly Murs,and especially not Troublemaker. Mainly because it stopped the Girls Aloud comeback single Something New,which was clearly a far superior single,from getting to No1.

I realise that hasn't got much to do with Heart.

But I just thought I'd say it anyway.

Good to hear Girls Aloud and Nelly Furtado on the time tunnel today not played enough in my opinion ☺

If it was a Nelly Furtado song and Girls Aloud as well it was probably 2006. In which case the GA track would have been Whole Lotta History,Something Kinda Ooooh or the cover of Tiffany's I Think We're Alone Now.

Of those three I would suspect it was Something Kinda Ooooh. (With four letter o's,not two or three as you sometimes incorrectly see.)

Was it?

I agree there is far too little GA played on Heart.

The Nelly Furtado track was Say it Right and Girls Aloud was Call The Shots both great tracks

My mistake,I've just looked it up on The Offical Chart website. Say it Right was indeed released in the UK in February 2007. It's confusing because wikipedia lists it as a 2006 release.

Call The Shots is one of Girls Aloud's best songs. Peter Robinson from Popjustice described it simply as, "The Greatest pop song of the 21st century." I have heard it on Heart before but again it was only as part of the Time Tunnel,not in regular airplay.

I will stop going on about Girls Aloud now.

How will the shows work tonight with the clocks going back?

Will Roberto have an extra hour of Club Classics or will Lucy Ellis get an extra hour at the beginning?

It Lucy Ellis got an extra hour that would mean she would have a 6 hour shift, or Roberto would get a 5 hour shift.

And will it matter,since it's the same records every night?

A six hour shift,that's a doddle,I work eleven hour nightshifts.

They could just repeat the exact same hour as a recording and practically no one will notice much change from the norm anyway!

Yes good point! But and extra hour of Club Classics would be much better, although I think it's going to be more Lucy Ellis!

Was that it? I thought it might have been something along the lines of "It's an actor" or comedian or something. Or that they were in the news in some month or whatever.

Have you looked at all the wrong answers? There are literally hundreds.

I can see this lasting into next year unless they give out more clues.

I had a look at the "Who's on Heart" section of the Heart website,where it says, "We've given you a little help". There are twenty or so comments underneath it and most of them are less than complimentary,saying things like they're fed up with the competition,it's boring,it's gone too long,and they're fed up hearing the same records all the time and Real Radio was much better.

Well obviously I would not agree with any of that...

Who is Neil alongside Nicola on Heart Sussex and Surrey breakfast this week? Tony Shepherd used to cover, but his sudden departure we think this new voice has emerged.

I think it may be Neil Kefford, from Heart Kent Drivetime.

Yes it is. It is odd how they get someone from another station to provide cover and then they need to have cover themselves.

I wonder if he is going to join Sussex and Surrey and take over from Tony who I presume has left suddenly? It looks like Angela Jay is doing the Saturday afternoon slot so maybe Lyndsay in the permanent replacement during the week?

Claire Lawson is covering for Neil in Kent. The reason they have done it this was is because they want a male and a female doing the breakfast show. I doubt Neil is going to join Surrey because Kent are already loosing a breakfast Co-host for maternity leave in a few months.

Just a quick question regarding "who's on heart" forgive me if the answer is obvious!
I listen to Heart North west and it is the presenter of the North west station that asks if the listener wants to lock in their guess for the identity of the secret celebrity.
Now, if the guess is correct (and they win the 100k) what happens on all the other Heart stations up and down the country?
Do they just make an announcement to say the competition was won in another area?

I was thinking that the guessers choice was being broadcast nationally but as far as I can recall, it's the local presenter from Heart North west asking the question to the guesser who is from my region?

I hope this makes sense
