A kmfm listener was delighted to hear she had won £1,000, after initially being confused when she first heard the call.

When the penny dropped for Maria Lockwood from Parkwood, Maidstone she was shocked that she had won.

Following thousands of entries, Drivetime presenter Rob Wills made the call to Maria after Katherine from Margate missed out on the prize by not answering her phone.

Maria's daughter, Emily answered the phone as mum was clearing up after dinner, and did not realise why Rob was calling, until Emily asked her, "Why is kmfm calling you?" Maria then instantly took over the call to talk to Rob.

Rob called the call the “strangest situation we’ve ever had” in six years of hosting the show.
