00:15Nottingham.
00:17Tanya Beggs from Lisgaard.
00:20And Lynne Murray from Glasgow.
00:22APPLAUSE
00:24Now, before the show, there was a random draw
00:26to see who goes in the hot seat first.
00:30And the winner of that was...
00:32Neil Dinsdale!
00:34So, Neil...
00:36Help yourself to the hot seat.
00:38I'm going to sit over here.
00:40Neil Dinsdale, a chemistry teacher from Harrogate.
00:42Welcome. Thank you very much.
00:44I ought to talk you through one or two of the rules
00:46before we get cracking, though.
00:48There are 15 questions.
00:50Get them all right.
00:51You win a million, but you can only do that once.
00:54OK?
00:55If you get a question wrong...
00:58Bad things happen.
01:00Don't get a question wrong.
01:02If you're worried at home about it,
01:04you don't know what's going on,
01:05don't worry, you'll pick it up as we go along.
01:07I promise you.
01:08Let's play Millionaire Hot Seat.
01:10APPLAUSE
01:13A wedding is held.
01:15Engagement party?
01:17Stag do?
01:18Honeymoon?
01:20Honeymoon?
01:21Or bridal shower?
01:24I'm going to jump straight in with that one and say the answer is C. Honeymoon.
01:28Final answer.
01:29And, of course, the right answer.
01:31Easy.
01:32For £200.
01:33Which of these captains is a main or Captain Haddock?
01:42OK.
01:43Again, I'm feeling reasonably confident with this one.
01:45I think I know where at least a couple of the others are coming from,
01:48so I'm going to say the answer is A, Captain Sparrow.
01:52Final answer.
01:54And with two seconds remaining, that is the correct answer.
01:57I'm planning a holiday to Italy and Rome next year,
02:01and I am hoping to see the Coliseum.
02:04So, Coliseum, final answer.
02:06And the correct answer.
02:07And the correct answer.
02:09Well done.
02:10APPLAUSE
02:11Right, so this is for £500.
02:16So, I am... I'm going to have a crack at this one.
02:20I'm going to say temperance.
02:22Final answer.
02:23£100.
02:24Yeah.
02:25So, this is for £1,000.
02:30In 2025, which football club won the men's FA Cup for the first time?
02:42Manchester United, Liverpool, Fulham, or Crystal...
02:47This is for £2,000, and because the questions now get a little bit harder,
02:51you get longer to answer them.
02:5330 seconds, OK?
02:54OK.
02:55And this is your question.
02:58Which of these classic British sitcoms stars five absolutely fabulous
03:04or the Vicar of Dibley?
03:06OK, I've got a... I've got a reasonable idea on this one,
03:13but I don't think I'm willing to risk it.
03:17APPLAUSE
03:19Hello.
03:20Hi there.
03:21You're Millie McGee.
03:22Great name.
03:23Yoga teacher from Bath.
03:24Welcome.
03:26You have 30 seconds to answer.
03:27You can't pass, because we've just had a pass.
03:30You, I'm afraid, have to answer this, whether you like it or not.
03:33First names all begin with the letter J.
03:36Um, OK, so I know it's not only Fools and Horses,
03:40because I know David Jason's in it, and that's a D.
03:43Um, the Vicar of Dibley's Dawn French.
03:46Um, and now fabulous, and there's John Cleese in Fawlty Towers,
03:49and I don't know anyone else.
03:51Um...
03:52Yeah.
03:53Jennifer Saunders, Joanna Lumley, Julia Swahala,
03:56Jane Horrocks and June Whitfield.
03:58Um, so, your pass now becomes available to you.
04:02This question for three...
04:04Answer, it's correct.
04:05Well done, yes, it is.
04:06Aloe vera.
04:09Nike, just do it.
04:11McDonald's, I'm loving it.
04:14L'Oreal, because I'm worth it.
04:20Um...
04:21I don't know.
04:24I'm sorry.
04:25No thinking out loud to help me.
04:28Sorry about that.
04:29Contestant there.
04:30Uh, but for now, Millie, take your seat at the end of the queue.
04:34Keep your fingers crossed, you're comfortable.
04:36Rick Eshadvani, business owner from St Albans.
04:39Uh, right, now, here's the situation.
04:42You can't pass, I'm afraid, on this.
04:44You're gonna have to answer it, whether you like it or not.
04:46This is the question.
04:47Which of these advertising slogans was introduced most recently?
04:54It's unfortunate.
04:55I've known every question apart from the 5Js prior to this,
04:58and this one is, um, a lot of guesswork.
05:02I don't think it's Nike or McDonald's.
05:06Something is making me lean towards A.
05:10Is someone in the audience gonna cough?
05:13Ten seconds.
05:15Um...
05:1693.
05:17Wow.
05:18I wouldn't have known that.
05:19Oh, I'm really sorry about that.
05:20Um, it was only very brief, and I was enjoying your trousers so much.
05:24Ladies and gentlemen, uh, Rick Eshadvani.
05:26Well done.
05:27Thank you, Mr Ray.
05:29Because Rick Esh got that question wrong,
05:32we've lost the million-pound top prize.
05:35The top prize is now a quarter of a million pounds.
05:38Still huge.
05:39Yes, still a nice bit in the pocket.
05:41Yeah.
05:42OK, this is your £5,000 question.
05:44Um, you do have a pass available to you, and you have 30 seconds to answer it.
05:50In which of these US cities does New Year's Day begin first?
05:55Chicago, Illinois, San Francisco, California, Dallas, Texas, or Miami, Florida?
06:05OK.
06:06The sun rises in the east, so we're looking for the easternmost city.
06:11Chicago's a little bit in.
06:15Florida is an east coast state, and it kind of sticks out.
06:19So I'm gonna...
06:20I'm gonna have a punt and say, um, Miami, Ryan Lancer.
06:25That's what I would have gone with.
06:27Thought break. See you in a minute.
06:35It's for £7,500.
06:37You can pass, you have 30 seconds to answer it.
06:41In 2019, the politician Ursula von der Leyen became the president of which body?
06:49European Parliament?
06:51European Commission?
06:53European Central Bank?
06:56Or European Court of Justice?
07:01Um...
07:03I'm not always at politics.
07:05Definitely not a subject I was hoping to hit.
07:07Um...
07:09I'm...
07:10I'm leaning towards European Parliament.
07:15But I don't think I'm sure enough to risk.
07:18There, please.
07:19Now, tragically, you can't pass, I'm afraid.
07:21You have to answer this question.
07:23I'll read it for you again now.
07:26In 2019, the politician Ursula von der Leyen became the president of which body?
07:33Politics or news?
07:34I'm just trying to figure out what the background noise was.
07:40I'm second.
07:41So, I will go for European Parliament, final answer.
07:46Well, it had to be one of them.
07:47Yeah.
07:49And that, I'm afraid, was the wrong one.
07:50Ah, no!
07:51Oh, I'm so sorry.
07:52It was the other one you were considering is the European Commission.
07:56Higgs.
07:57So sorry, darling.
07:59To bring out the next contestant.
08:01It's heartless, if so.
08:02It's literally come and go.
08:05And you are Lynne Murray, a writer from Glasgow.
08:09Now, as a result of that casualty then, the top prize is now £100,000.
08:14Here's the question.
08:15Which of these popular carols mentions the word Christmas in its lyrics?
08:22Hark the Herald Angels Sing, Silent Night, Away in a Manger, or God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.
08:33OK, so, I love Christmas carols, and I also love singing, right?
08:39I'm going to say, because it's an older one, Away in a Manger.
08:44It's, you know, it's about animals and no sleep for a bed.
08:48Ten seconds.
08:49Silent Night, Holy Night.
08:51I'm going to say it's God Rest Ye Merry Christmas because...
08:54Five.
08:55D, final answer.
08:57You'll tell you're a writer.
08:59Yep.
09:00You know the answer, but you're not going to tell me before your 30 seconds runs out, but you did and you were right.
09:06Well done.
09:09And you've now got us up to £10,000.
09:13Here is the question.
09:18Which of these is the IATA code for an airport that serves an African capital city?
09:24CAI, CBR, CCS, or CPH?
09:33I wasn't sure.
09:36I would use the one tool I had, which was the pass, and that's what I'm going to do.
09:40Okey-doke.
09:41Now, you've got to hope you get back before the end of the show, but now, and bring out...
09:48Bring out Nickens, since you were last here.
09:51I was hoping to be probably a little bit further up the ladder when I came back to see it again.
09:54Yeah, well, I'm afraid it's seven and a half, and this is for £10,000.
09:58Which of these is the IATA code for an airport that serves an African capital city?
10:05Er, okay.
10:07We'd like to go and...
10:09Right, bring Millie back out.
10:10Hi.
10:12Bring them back, squeaky Millie.
10:15Okay.
10:17Erm, I haven't played...
10:19I have played poker, but not properly.
10:22Erm...
10:24I don't know.
10:25Erm...
10:27I mean, I'm going towards full house and flush.
10:30Could be wrong.
10:31Could be three of a kind or two pairs.
10:33Erm...
10:34Ten seconds.
10:35I am going to go with...
10:40Five.
10:42Three.
10:43Flush.
10:44Final answer.
10:46So, you just made it in time, and you were wrong.
10:49Yeah.
10:50No, hang on, I mean, hang on!
10:51Oh, sorry!
10:52LAUGHTER
10:54Everybody at home's going, oh, I wonder what the right answer is.
10:56He'd be gone.
10:57Yeah, the correct answer was...
10:59Full house.
11:00Gutted.
11:01Full house.
11:02Well, I'm really sorry about that.
11:03It was fun having you...
11:04Oh, I know, very sad.
11:05But, ladies and gentlemen, Millie McGee!
11:07Now you can go.
11:08Now you're allowed to go.
11:09And let's bring back...
11:10APPLAUSE
11:13Matt Whiteman.
11:15Welcome back, Matt.
11:16I've only just left.
11:17Erm, we're a bit stuck on this one, aren't we?
11:19Seems so.
11:20Top prize now, £20,000.
11:23OK, here is the question.
11:24You can't pass.
11:2530 seconds to answer it.
11:27Shampoo.
11:29What?
11:30Erm, I can't say I've ever learnt any Hindi.
11:34Erm...
11:35I can't...
11:36Why would you squeeze coleslaw?
11:39Patio again.
11:40I guess you squeeze a shampoo bottle?
11:44You do have 45 seconds to answer it now.
11:47OK.
11:48If you get it right, you go home with £20,000.
11:54Enough for a whole new hairstyle.
11:58If you get it wrong, we'll give you £1,000.
12:00So, 50 years before 2026 will be 76.
12:09Erm...
12:11They all seem like they're that sort of period.
12:13I feel like Rocky's maybe a little bit later.
12:16It's late 70s that Star Wars came out.
12:19Ten seconds.
12:20So, I'm going to...
12:21I'm going to opt for Star Wars Final Answer.
12:24And it's the wrong answer.
12:31Ah!
12:32I'm really sorry about that.
12:33That was Rocky.
12:34It was, in fact, Rocky.
12:36Damn.
12:371976.
12:38Star Wars, you were very close.
12:39It was, er, 77.
12:41Ah.
12:42OK.
12:43So, erm...
12:44I'll try to put a positive spin on it.
12:46You're going home, Matt Whiteman,
12:49with £1,000!
12:51Thank you very much for playing.
12:53Tell me next time when six new players will be here,
12:56all hoping to win £1,000.
12:58See you then.
12:59Take care.
