Friday 28th Oct
So, Tom, Lynsey & Jack are back from their hols on Monday. Speaking of the trio, and as it's Halloween this weekend, we thought we'd give you another chance to see Tom and Lyns get the fright of their lives...
Jack scared the heck out of them at Michelham Priory - if you missed it, watch the video now - it's worth it just to see Tom's face!

Dear Barack...
Lynsey told us a great story about a young British guy who’d had a few beers one evening whilst watching a documentary about American politics and got so annoyed he decided to email Barack Obama and give him a bit of a telling off!

Good Deeds
On yesterday’s show Lynsey shared a news story with us that doing good deeds for other people can make you live longer! Apparently the lovely feeling you get from helping others can help to ward off all kinds of stress related illnesses. Lyns decided this called for a little challenge so the three of them went off after the show to perform a good deed…have a look at the videos and make your choice.
Which of them do you think is going to live the longest? Vote now!

Magic Injections
Liz McClarnon of former-Atomic-Kitten-member fame has had Botox in her armpits to stop her from perspiring so much…OUCH.

Back To School
So the summer holidays are pretty much done and dusted for this year…the kids are back to school this week! This kicked off a bit of a debate in the Heart Breakfast studio as Tom and Lyns thought most of the kids would be looking forward to going back whereas Jack thought they’d be dreading it. There was only one way to find out:
Silly Jack. He thinks that in the song ‘Independent Woman’ by Destiny’s Child the chorus goes ‘All the women who are independent…throw your hands up BATMAN’. Duh! Lynsey was quick to tell him that the actual lyrics are ‘throw your hands up AT ME’ but still it seemed he opened up a right old can of worms
