My 11 year old sung it in the kitchen yesterday
You're still in - it's only the original version that counts, so cover versions, buskers and 11 year old singers are fine.
Of all the places least likely to get hit: Radio 4, PM program immediately before the reading of the five o'clock news!
Letter to Feedback going out in disgust!
That was close!

You’re still in –
Phew! My 7yo started singing it while writing her Christmas cards.
Radio 4, PM programme (FTFY)
I’ve been only listening to R4 cos it felt safe after a risky weekend away😩 bugger
Complaint filed. I expect an On-air apology tomorrow. And a small feature on Whamageddon perhaps.
Complaint filed.
So have I. I would gladly sell my house and all its contents to pay the BBC licence fee, but this is disgraceful.
Phew, first page clarification that covers don’t count is excellent news. I’m still in!
it’s only the original version that counts
If this is true, then my disappointment with Absolute Radio's cover they played, is rescinded
Oh I'll go back an listen then. About what time? I was in a meeting
EDIT: Mine was the second letter.
Worst year on record for me, out today! We did a quiz at work in our small team and we were in the music round when I started to think 'actually one of these better not be Wham' and the last question came up and I stuck my fingers in my ears shouting at the webcam 'this better not ****ing be wham, is it wham?!' but everybody was too busy laughing at me to clearly answer either way and I was in 2nd place so had to remove my fingers from my ears to tap out the answer at which point I recognised it as being wham as it continued to play. I then ranted for the next 5 minutes about how they'd just sodding wham'd me!
EDIT: Mine was the second letter.

Phew. Survived a ukulele version at last night's school concert.
Went a football match today - no PA at Tranent FC, so result! I'm still standing.

Given the fuss they made about Northampton Town, how many thousands were taken out at your game?

Given that there's around 52k at the game, I think that can be described as a nuclear strike
I'm feeling quite pleased with myself. I've never made it past day 3 before, but I've been off with covid for a week and have been listening to nothing but Bach, The Pet Shop Boys, and some of those essential mixes posted last week.
It's now getting quite close to Xmas, so I'm beginning to think I might do it.
... unless one of you sneakily mixes it into one of those essential mixes somehow.
I'm out!
My bloody family! I introduced the idea to the family chat group and my de3ar nephews and sister have been whambushing me and finally got me today. Bunch of swines
All the way until today, walking back into a hotel lobby.
I thought I would be safe in Kazakhstan. But no..
I'm still in 🙂 even managed to not hear it at our Xmas gathering. In fact, several of us were expecting to be out after that! Time yet I guess...small victories thus far.
