Radio's toughest competition is back, and there's another £10,000 to be won...
The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show is one show with seven playlists.
If you love Absolute 80s, Absolute Radio 90s or any of our stations you can listen to the show with your favourite music when you listen on digital radio or through the Absolute Radio app.
Each morning, Christian is once again firing up his Ten Grand Time Machine to play you an incredibly short clip featuring a fragment of a song from each of our seven radio stations - from Absolute Radio 60s to 00s, plus Absolute Classic Rock and Absolute Radio. If you're the first person to identify each song and artist, you could win £10,000!
Be warned though, the clip is VERY short. We mean it when we say this is radio's toughest competition...
Listen to The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show each weekday morning and call us on 0330 123 1215 when you hear us open the lines to play!
Full terms and conditions are below:
1. COMPETITION MECHANIC AND HOW TO WIN
There will be one (1) prize.
The prize winner will be the entrant who successfully identifies the artist and song title for all seven song clips in the correct order, included within Christian O'Connell's 10 Grand Time Machine audio montage.
The presenter will indicate when phones lines will open and close. Listeners will be prompted to call into the Absolute Radio studio using the number provided. For each competition round, one listener will be picked at random to come to air and submit their guesses. The seven song clip montage will play in full, after which point the listener will provide a list of answers of all their guesses.
Competition rounds will only take place within The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show on Absolute Radio between 06:00am and 10:00am, Monday to Friday between the Start Date and the End Date.
There may be more than one competition round during any given Breakfast show.
