E: 23/02 Win £20k with Absolute Radio + Skyfall - effort (ish)

esmerellda

Wasn't sure whether to post this yet, might need a bump on Monday. Guessed end date as not sure but think 'it' happens on 22nd. Feb.

http://www.absoluteradio.co.uk/freebies/competitions/skyfall/clues.html

Starts on 18th Feb - you have to pick up clues each day from 18th Feb and then listen to Absolute Radio on the 22nd Feb to find out what to do.

To celebrate the release of Skyfall on Blu-ray™ and DVD on Monday 18 February, we're giving away £20,000 to the person who can track down Ian Wright.
Just like 007 in the film, Wrighty's been wiped off the face of the earth, and we're receiving only a few clues as to his whereabouts. In the week beginning Monday 18 February there will be a different clue each day as Wrighty moves from location to location – as his signal interferes with our own, you'll hear his clues breaking through into our broadcast, and we'll be keeping track of them on this site, too.
On Friday 22 February The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show will track him down once and for all. By texting Christian the first letter of each location in the clues you'll help pin-point him, and finally one listener with all the correct locations will be brought to air to win an incredible £20,000. You could buy Martinis for all your friends with that, and you'd still have money left over for the olives.
You can listen to Wrighty's clues as they become available, and find out more about the film nominated for eight BAFTAs and five Academy Awards, using the links below.

• Wrighty's Clues

Wrighty's Clues

Like Bond in Skyfall, Wrighty's been wiped off the face of the earth. However, he is leaving clues as he moves from location to location, and we need your help to work out what those locations are. As clues become available, they'll be added to the list below.
Keep track of the clues and listen carefully to The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show on Friday 22 February, because Christian will be telling you how to use the locations you've worked out for a chance to win £20,000!

I'm very grateful that people take the time to post competitions and see nothing wrong with posting comps even when they're not live yet.

I tend to comp by end date anyway, but if you do it in a different way then you bookmark it and come back to it later.

I tend to just subscribe to the thread and then I receive an e-mail when someone bumps it to say it is live (or I will if I get there early enough) - or someone puts a comment like this which is really nothing to do with the competition.

Sorry for bumping, I'll get my coat ...

Mondays Clue.

The city I am in is Britain's largest. The Romans settled here in 43AD

Extra info -
There are more clues on-air than online though, so if the clues below aren't enough, you''ll have to keep listening for more!

Tuesdays clue - Am hoping someone else was listening as this is what I got but am all confused!

"he has been somewhere very moist and humid (possibly that is somewhere inside they said). Also they are getting that it is named after Constantine the Great - a fuzzy shape briefly showed up on the satelite tracking system - a crescent and a star."

So my thoughts - Constantinople was named after him which is now Istanbul (Crescent and Star on national flag) but how that ties in with the first part confuses me!

Ooh - unless it is referring to him going to a Turkish bath

Istanbul?
