Soapbox Stats

Blogs > Ben Fry's Breakfast Blog > Soapbox Stats

27th August 2019

Things we talked about today…

It’s the day after the Micklegate Run Soapbox Challenge and we are re-living the highlights in the studio including the Joker Award and of course, the 1st place Fastest Kart! The Joker award went to York Maze as Corny the Chainsaw wielding clown and Grandma with her water pistol and silly spray made sure the crowd and the presenters were soaked! The 1st place kart with a unbelievable time of 31.86 seconds was York Digital Image – Congrats to everyone involved!

It has been revealed that optimists live longer! If you have a sunny disposition you are 70% more likely to live past 85. So Laura and DG challenge the whole of North Yorkshire to have a go at being positive today, lets all live longer!

Turns out getting married at the same time as your sibling can save you around £5k in costs! Think about it, the guests are the same, only one meal to pay for, one venue for 2 couples… Laura was almost sold on this idea until we had a call in from Lainie who actually had a double wedding with her sister and it ended in disaster! There was a fight and the church bell ringing was played from a tape – safe to say the marriage didn’t last long so Laura is gone off the idea.

 

Chances to win on air with Ben and Laura…

 

SCREEN STARS (6:20)

Win a pair of cinema tickets to Everyman York tickets if you can work out the movie or TV show that is acted out by Ben…It’s Guess the Character from the famous quote…

This morning it was Jack Harmen!

 

GAME WHEEL (7.30)

This week you could be winning tickets to Tickets to the Opening night of the Northern Lights event at York Minster!

Today it was One Line Lyric Quiz and Helen won the tickets.

 

PANIC (8:15)

You can win £25 and a family ticket to York Dungeon if you can hold your nerve or £1,000 if the buzzer goes off!

Dan didn’t manage to name 5 books by Charles Dickens and didn’t win the £25 and the Dungeon Tickets!

 

Ben and Laura on air weekdays from 6am.
