HOW DID YOU DO?
07 to 10 correct ... You must be a confirmed fan, congratulations.
04 to 06 correct ... Average, you could do with another hour a day of Noel Edmonds
01 to 03 correct ... Poor, what station have you been listening to?
00 or less ... Disaster, read the entire Radio 1 Museum throughout and listen to 'today's best mix' for 1 hour.
(The book actually said ... 'Disaster, read this book from cover to cover and listen to Radio 1 for a month or longer' .... but you get where we're going ... besides we wouldn't want to put you through 'today's best mix' for any longer than an hour - an hour is punishment enough!)
