3. At some point during the show between 13:30 and 16:00, listeners will hear a clip from a song played with a missing lyric. From that moment listeners have approximately 30 minutes to call 0808 5 92 95 00 and get through where they will give their answer to the missing lyric to the phone operators as well as some contact information. After the competition window has closed, the winner and several back ups will be picked at random from all the entrants that gave the correct answer. The winner will be called back shortly after the competition closes and may be invited to come on air.

Entrants must answer all questions independently and without assistance (except in such circumstances where such reasonable adjustments are in place). Help from any other person, including prompts, signals, background voices or third-party communication of any kind, is prohibited. Any entrant found to be receiving unauthorised assistance will be disqualified.

If the call is not answered on the first attempt or is diverted to any form of voicemail, answerphone, or automated answer service (including but not limited to call screening features that intercept or filter calls), or if there is no answer after 30 seconds of the phone ringing, or the shortlisted entrant is rude or abusive they will not be the winner of the prize and the next person randomly selected in the list will be called back and so on until a valid winner is found.
