How does my mortgage work??

I have 2 seperate mortgages for my new house - 1 for £43,000 on a tracker set at 0.99% above base and then some additional borrowings for £69,000 currently on a 5 year fixed term!
Before I moved (and therefore needed the extra borrowings) I was on a 5 year term tracker and someone told me how to (roughly) calculate how much of my monthly payment was interest and how much was capital!
Can anyone give me some rough guidelines as to how to calculate how much is interest and how much is capital on my new mortgages??
Thanks...

I like this one, it shows you month by month how much interest/repayment there is on a mortgage.
