  • Strange Compliments

    If you have ever been given a compliment and thought “What the hell did that mean?” then this was the show for you. This morning we asked, what was the strangest compliment you have ever received? We had some interesting feed back from our listeners, some were what we would call ‘back handed compliments’ others just left us asking “huh?”. ”Nice Elbows” topped the list along with “You have lovely eyelashes,are they false?” with the number one spot going to (drum roll please!) “You have eyes like a giraffe”. Although now that we actually know what a giraffe’s eyes look like (thanks to google), maybe its not so bad after all.

    The daily dilemma came from a ‘boobilicious’ listener. After going on a couples holiday with her friend she got a little comfortable and decided to unleash ‘the girls’, much to the discomfort of her gal pal,who’s boyfriend obviously had an eye full. We all agreed that in a perfect world everyone would love to be as comfortable as she is with her body,but unfortunately it’s not. Our advice was to talk to her friend and try and move past the holiday blunder.

    Lots more tomorrow morning folks, so keep listening!

  • Smell-O-Vision

    On this mornings show we discussed the art of smelling. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could actually smell our favourite movies as well as smell some of our  favourite television shows. We had a lot of suggestions for Smell-O-Vision. Our  most popular were films such as Chocolat and  Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory, Mystic Pizza and even The Devil Wears Prada was thrown in. Some other films that made the list were  Slumdog Millionaire and SAW  but for all the wrong reasons.

    This mornings Daily Dilemma was from a shy listener who has been unlucky in love. Our advice, take baby steps, even the most confident people  find it hard to approach the opposite sex. It’s half the battle if you look and feel great about yourself, remember it all starts from the inside!

  • Diets

    This morning’s Daily Dilemma was from a guy whose girlfriend is always on a diet, much to his annoyance. It’s one that I think most guys can identify with. We got lots of texts from girls who have been on lots of diets over the years – including Claire who sounds like she’s done every one in the book, including online! >>> CLAIRE DIETS

    We’re encouraging you to get involved in this year’s South East Run For Life! All money raised goes towards the Solas Centre – the south east’s cancer support service.

  • London Riots

    One story has dominated the news today. The London riots have shocked people around the world and this morning on Beat Breakfast we heard from people from the south east who are living in some of the areas affected. We also spoke to Londoners now living here in the region to get their view on what’s happening in their native city.

    On a lighter note this morning, we wondered how far is too far, after actor  Jeremy Irons said tapping a female colleague on the ass is merely paying her a compliment! We then got stories from listeners that shocked us all! We couldn’t believe Anne from Tipp and her story about a former boss! >>> Boss Grope

  • Phone Addicts

    This is from the top of a wedding cake. And y’know, it’s not that far-fetched. While talking about phone addiction and general inappropriate use of mobiles this morning, we actually heard a story about a woman who tweeted while she was walking down the aisle!

    We spoke to one woman who even used her phone while she was in labour! And we also heard from a phone shop worker who has seen first hand what some people get up to on their phones, thinking it will stay private!

    Are you guilty of any of the following? Have a listen >>> PHONE ADDICTS

  • Bad Boys!

    The hottest couple right now, or at least the most intriguing, has to be be Callum Best and Goergia Salpa. But there are serious questions about whether this has any chance of lasting, given Callum’s past. He has been a bit of a woman’s man for years so what makes this latest fling any different?!

    And doesn’t Georgia know about his history? Does she think she can change him?

    This morning on the show, we wanted to hear from girls who have ‘tamed’ bad boys, or just find themselves always drawn to them. And from guys who are or were notorious players! Have a listen! >>> Bad Boys Blog

    Back tomorrow at 6.50!

  • Sexy Or Unsexy?

    This morning, we compiled a sexy list – things that make you feel sexy. Taking baths was on the list but a lot of people just take showers nowadays to weren’t really feeling the love for the bath.

    Someone else suggested a wetroom – like the one in the picture, They’re pretty sexy, right? Well, having a woman in nothing but a towel helps. Otherwise, it’s just a bathroom with slippy floors and that’s not sexy – that’s just dangerous!

    Anyway, have a listen to what else is on the list – and see if I could get into the mind of women and guess what THEY think is sexy! >>> Sexy List Blog

    We’ll talk to you tomorrow! Wednesday! The beauty of a short working week.
