E: 20/11 8:00am WIN! A solid gold nugget, thanks to Sky VIP and discovery+! (Text)
Here at Virgin Radio, we're very excited for Sky VIP's brand new competition, which is giving away an incredible treasure horde of 24oz of gold. That's in honour of the launch of discovery+ on Sky Q, and the Ultimate Gold collection, where you can watch over 700 hours of treasure-hunting TV.
To celebrate, we're going to be doing our very own Golden Giveaway, giving a couple of lucky Virgin Radio listeners the chance to win their own 1oz golden nugget on the Chris Evans Breakfast show with Sky on Thursday and Friday this week.
To take part, text 'Sky', followed by your name to 87222.
If selected, you'll come to air and be given the choice of using 'GOLDEN' or 'NUGGET', as your helpful hint, as each letter of the word will be what the answer of your questions will begin with.
If you answer all 6 questions right in a row, and get to the end of your chosen word you've won yourself an ounce of gold, and Sky Q free for a year. Both days we guarantee one winner, so we'll keep playing during the show until someone has the skills to get a full house.
Also, keep your eye out on our Instagram page for another chance to win some bounty in our own virtual treasure hunt. We're hiding a picture of a golden nugget in our story - reply with the phrase 'GOLDEN NUGGET' once you've found it, and one entrant will be selected as a winner, and will land themselves their own 1oz of gold, and Sky Q free for a year.
Photo containing the nugget will be posted between 06:30 - 10:00 on Thursday 19th Nov with the entry period closing at 10am on Friday 20th Nov.
Our textlines will be open from 06:30 on Thursday to 08:00 on Friday. Texts cost standard network rate. All entries submitted during the entry window are valid and contestants could be picked to play on either Thursday or Friday .
