BBC Radio 2, 10 to the top. Right, let's welcome our first contestants. It's Anna Houton in Chesterfield. Oh, lovely Chesterfield, the leaning tower of Chesterfield. That's right, yes, that's what we've got in Chesterfield. It's lovely. Yeah, it really is. We've not been there long, but we're having a great time. We love it, yeah. Oh, good.

Where did you move from to Chesterfield? So we were in Ashford in the Water, near Bakewell in Derbyshire, which is also absolutely lovely. Yeah, we love a bit of Bakewell. Janice Janine and I had a great experience. A wonderful experience, in fact, running through Bakewell when we did our charity role. we got handed hot soup and several

Bakewell tarts.

Oh, fantastic.

Yeah, fed the whole fact running through Bakewell when we did our charity run, we got handed hot soup and several

Bakewell tarts. Oh, fantastic. Yeah, fed the whole crew for about four months after. You're a flight

attendant, doors to manual cross-check. I am. I've been doing that for a lot of years. It makes

me feel very old, which I probably am. I've been doing it 31, 31 years, yeah. Oh, wow. So are you Europe? Are you long haul? What kind of flying do you do? I used to be long haul and short haul, a bit of a mixture when I was at Manchester, but now I'm back at East Midlands. It's only the short haul, but I'm more than happy with that. It's great just coming home at the end of the day. I've seen the family and the dogs. So I've done all the long haul and I'm happy to do the short haul now.

With the airline that you fly now, do you get fantastic staff benefits? I do, yes. I used it last year

to go and take my husband and my youngest son to Thailand to meet the eldest son who was travelling over from

New Zealand to meet us and so we had a fabulous time there because we hadn't seen him for months
