00:17Thank you so much. Thank you.
00:23Hello and welcome to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
00:26And tonight we are starting with six brand new contestants.
00:31And before we test their brains,
00:33let's see what they're like at waving.
00:36They are...
00:38Joshua Godfrey from Carrington.
00:40Steph Atkinson from Birmingham.
00:43Roman Dubowski from Stockport.
00:47Ashwa Naz from Slough.
00:49Stella Moore from Margate.
00:52And Joe Humphrey from Nottingham.
00:58Excellent waving from you all.
01:01And now to see who gets to sit in the chair,
01:03we're going to play fastest finger first.
01:06All ready?
01:07OK, here comes the question.
01:11Starting with the earliest,
01:13put these film musicals in order of their original release.
01:20Cabaret, Singing In The Rain, La La Land, Mary Poppins.
01:34Right, time's up. So let's see the correct order.
01:37We've got Singing In The Rain from 1952,
01:38Mary Poppins, 64.
01:41Cabaret, 72.
01:43And La La Land, 2016.
01:45So let's see how many got that right.
01:49And it was only two.
01:51And who was the quickest?
01:53It was Joe Humphrey in 3.42 seconds.
01:57Well done, Joe.
01:59Well done.
02:03Nice to meet you.
02:04You too.
02:05You too.
02:05Your seat awaits, sir.
02:10Excellent.
02:11So you're Joe Humphrey, a tree surgeon.
02:13Correct, yes.
02:14From Nottingham.
02:15I don't believe you're a tree surgeon.
02:18You've still got ten fingers.
02:21I've never met a tree surgeon.
02:22Luckily.
02:23Honestly, I've never met a tree surgeon or anyone in forestry
02:26who's got all their fingers in all their hands.
02:28I've come close a few times.
02:29Yes.
02:30OK, well, look.
02:31Let's get on with it, shall we?
02:33Yeah, go on then.
02:34You dive straight in.
02:35Good, good, good.

02:44This is for £100.
02:48The way in which a doctor talks to a patient is known as a what manner?
02:56Seaside, roadside, bedside, ringside.

03:10This is for £200.
03:13Which mythical figure is often depicted as a bearded garden ornament?
03:19Vampire?
03:20Gnome?
03:22Werewolf?
03:23Or mermaid?
03:27I was a bit unsure of this at first.
03:30But I'm sure now the right answer's come up that I was looking for.
03:35B, gnome.
03:36Final answer.
03:37Absolutely right.
03:38£200.
03:41This is for £300.

04:04Right answer.
04:05Which is the one you haven't been in?
04:07Tsunami.
04:08You've done a tornado?
04:10Well, I've been near one, yeah.
04:11Near one.
04:12Yeah, you don't have to be very close to be affected.
04:14Where was that?
04:14Oklahoma or something?
04:15Close.
04:16Yeah, yeah.
04:17Tornado alley around that sort of area in the States, yeah.
04:20Exciting stuff.
04:22Okay, this is for £500.
04:25What name is given to the written record of a meeting or hearing?
04:32Seconds, minutes, hours, days.
04:37Uh, let's get the record of a meeting or hearing.
04:40That'll be minutes for an answer.
04:44Right answer.
04:45£500.
04:46And this, Joe, is your last chance to go away completely empty handed.
04:52This is for £1,000.
04:56The gravitational pull of which celestial body plays the main role in creating ocean tides on Earth?
05:05Neptune, the Moon, Pluto or Mercury?
05:10That will be B, the Moon.
05:14Final answer.
05:15The right answer.
05:17You've reached your first safety net.
05:23Now, you may have all your fingers working, but I was reading in your notes you don't have all your
05:28legs working.
05:29I do not.
05:29Well, it does work.
05:30It's just, um...
05:31Missing.
05:32Missing, yeah.
05:33The robot leg that's attached works fairly well, yeah.
05:36War wound, I'm guessing.
05:37Yeah, correct.
05:38Um, Afghanistan.
05:40I got shot by a sniper.
05:44Fifteen years ago now.
05:45Almost a lifetime ago.
05:46Another lifetime ago.
05:47What were you in?
05:48Uh, pain.
05:51No, I mean, which bit?
05:52Which bit of the services were you in?
05:55I was in the Royal Marines.
05:56I served with 4-2 Commando.
05:59Uh, and then I got shot in Helmand Province in Afghanistan.
06:02Yeah, good.
06:03Yeah, yeah, chafed a bit.
06:04Well, well done for everything you've done.
06:08Um...
06:11You're obviously strong of body.
06:13Let's see if he's strong of mind.
06:15Oh, yeah.
06:16First question.
06:17Would you like to set your safety net at 2,000?
06:20Um, no.
06:20I have all my lifelines.
06:22I'm happy to crack on.
06:23Yep.
06:23Righty-ho.
06:24This is the question.
06:28What are the three principal ingredients of Kedgeri?
06:33Pasta, capers and anchovy.
06:36Pastry, spinach and feta.
06:39Fish, rice and eggs.
06:42Tomato, mozzarella and basil.
06:47I have...
06:50Never heard of this word.
06:53Pasta, capers and anchovies.
06:59Nothing's standing out to me here at all.
07:01Well, we have lifelines.
07:03We do.
07:03For exactly this situation.
07:04I really didn't want to use them this early on.
07:07However,
07:08I can't even narrow it down.
07:10Okay.
07:10At all.
07:11So...
07:12I think
07:13I'm going to ask the audience, please, Jeremy.
07:17Okay, audience.
07:18Get your fingers on your keypads.
07:20Let's see if we can hold Joe along here.
07:22This is the question.
07:24What are the three principal ingredients of Kedgeri?
07:27And if you'd all vote now, please.
07:41Now, look at that.
07:4385% have gone for fish, rice and eggs.
07:45Strong.
07:45Trivial numbers for all the others.
07:47Yeah.
07:47I'm happy with that.
07:48I'm going to go with that.
07:49So...
07:50Fish, rice and eggs.
07:51Final answer.
07:53Well done, audience.
07:54Well done, Joe, for listening to them.
07:57That was the correct answer.
08:01Now then.
08:02Safety net at 4,000.
08:04Erm...
08:05No.
08:06Well, crack on, please.
08:08Gotcha.
08:09This is the question.
08:11In a game of blackjack, also known as 21,
08:14which of these cards is not worth 10?
08:20Jack, king, queen, ace.
08:24I just...
08:26I remember playing blackjack, pontoon 21, whether it might be known as.
08:33Erm...
08:34I believe all the...
08:36all the face cards are worth 10, and the ace, I believe, is worth...
08:41worth 11.
08:44So...
08:45How sure am I?
08:47Because it's been a while since I played it.
08:53Erm...
08:53John, queen, ten.
08:56No, you know what?
08:57I have played it.
08:58I'm not going to overthink it.
09:00Ace, final answer.
09:03No need to overthink it.
09:04That's the right answer.
09:05Yeah.
09:06It's, erm...
09:07Four.
09:09As a man who's played it a lot, it's, erm...
09:12It's worth one or 11.
09:14Yeah.
09:14It's either or the ace you can choose.
09:17Sue, safety net at 8.
09:20Erm...
09:20No.
09:22OK.
09:22This is the question.
09:25What can path and miners track a well-known route to the summit of which UK mountain?
09:33Ben Nevis?
09:35Scarfell Pike?
09:37Snowdon?
09:39Or Sleave Donard?
09:44I'm 90% sure it's Snowdon.
09:48Er, I've been up and... I've been up all of these quite a few times.
09:51Have you?
09:53Quite a while ago.
09:55Obviously, I was...
09:57I had two legs when I did it.
09:59And, you know, it's not beyond my capabilities now, but it's, er...
10:02It's certainly an effort to do anything like that.
10:06Erm...
10:06I seem to remember the walking path.
10:09I know it's not Scarfell Pike.
10:11I know it's not B or D.
10:13So, I'm left between Ben Nevis and Snowdon.
10:18And I know quite a few other tracks on Snowdon.
10:20Er...
10:24And Ben Nevis.
10:25And I'm just trying to not get them mixed up.
10:29Erm...
10:30See, this might be one I do 50-50, but then...
10:33I am... I'm already at 50-50, and...
10:37It could take away one that I'm contemplating.
10:40It might leave the two that I'm...
10:42That I know it is one of.
10:47Er...
10:47None of my friends are going to know this.
10:50You said you were 90% certain.
10:52I am 90% certain it's Snowdon.
10:54And there's that 10% of me.
10:57Er...
10:58Because it's been so long.
11:02And the more I think of it, I'm coming up to about 95% certainty now.
11:07Minus track.
11:08I know there's lots of Minus tracks in Snowdonia.
11:16Erm...
11:17Right.
11:18I'm going to get a grip of myself.
11:20C, Snowdon, final answer.
11:22The right answer.
11:23Good man.
11:25Good man.
11:29Good man.
11:31Okey-doke.
11:32This is good.
11:33You've got three lifelines remaining.
11:35So...
11:36Safety net at 16.
11:38Erm...
11:39No, let's keep going.
11:40Righty-ho.
11:41Let's keep that in, yeah.
11:42This is the question.
11:45The actor Emma Stone does not appear in which of these films?
11:51Poor Things, Cruella, The Favourite, or House of Gucci.
12:00This is, er...
12:03Not...
12:03Not a strong point of mine.
12:05No, no.
12:06At all.
12:07Isn't that part of Royal Marine training and forestry training?
12:10Yeah.
12:10Yeah, exactly, yeah.
12:11I think all of those are required.
12:13Required watching for all my chosen professions.
12:17Erm...
12:18For...
12:19Yeah, I...
12:22There's no point in me even thinking about this.
12:25I'm going to have to call my partner, Lee.
12:29Who may hopefully know.
12:30Alright then.
12:32So, can we call Lee, please?
12:38PHONE'S WORKING.
12:39It's good.
12:40It's not there.
12:42Hello.
12:43Hi, Lee.
12:44Yes, hello.
12:45Hi, Jeremy Clarkson here from Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
12:48Hello.
12:49Hi there.
12:50Now, we've got Joe here.
12:52Obviously, he needs your help.
12:54Yep.
12:55Can I just check that you've got someone from our office there monitoring your Google access?
13:02Yes.
13:02Yeah.
13:03Alright, brilliant.
13:04Okay, that's fantastic.
13:06Now, Joe, here's how it works.
13:08I'm sure you know, but I'll remind you.
13:1030 seconds.
13:11Tiny, tiny amount of time to read out that question and the four answers.
13:15Leaving Lee enough time to have a think.
13:17Alright?
13:18Yep.
13:18You ready?
13:18Yep.
13:19Your time starts now.
13:21The actor, Emma Stone, does not appear in which of these films?
13:27A, Poor Things, B, Cruella, D, sorry, C, The Favourite, or D, House of Gucci?
13:36Oh, that's...
13:3615 seconds.
13:38She's definitely in...
13:38She's definitely in B. What's A again?
13:40Poor Things.
13:43I'm not sure.
13:44Sorry.
13:46Poor Things, Cruella, The Favourite, House of Gucci.
13:48Four seconds.
13:49She's definitely in B and C.
13:54Oh, she got C in there last minute.
13:56What did she say? She's definitely in B and...
13:58She's definitely...
13:58I'm sure she said she's definitely in B and C.
14:02Oh, I thought it was B.
14:03She snuck C in last minute.
14:05Okay, well, that could be incredibly useful to you...
14:08Yeah.
14:09...because that means that 50-50...
14:10Might have to get used quite early, yeah.
14:12We're going to have to do 50-50, I think.
14:15I think, yeah.
14:15Do you know what I mean? Yeah.
14:16I don't think you've got any choice, really.
14:17Yep.
14:18All right, computer, could you take away two wrong answers, please?
14:24Right.
14:26You'd see... Well, that's it.
14:27I thought she said...
14:28Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
14:30So, the two answers she told me were not there,
14:35have been taken away.
14:40I know I've got that lifeline,
14:42but I think...
14:44I think it's about as much use as a cat flap on a submarine in this situation.
14:48LAUGHTER
14:53I know everyone in my family is going to be watching this going,
14:55take the money.
14:57Everyone I work with, or have worked with in the past,
14:59is going to go in, is going to be saying take a gamble.
15:05But...
15:06Shy boys get no sweets, as my sergeant major used to tell me.
15:12So...
15:14No, hold on.
15:16I was about to go for it, then.
15:18I bottled it.
15:19I bottled it.
15:21LAUGHTER
15:22A, poor thing's final answer.
15:28Oh, Joe, that's the wrong answer.
15:33I didn't have a clue, it was...
15:35No.
15:35No, no.
15:37Oh, God, I'm really sorry about that.
15:39But, yeah...
15:39It is what it is.
15:40House of Gucci.
15:42I mean, you are going away.
15:44I'll try to put a positive spin on this.
15:46You are leaving, though, with £1,000.
15:48It's fine.
15:48Ladies and gentlemen.
15:50No, I'm free.
15:51Oh, that's the wrong answer.
15:52I'm really sorry about that.
15:53It is what it is.
15:54It's fine.
15:54It's fine.
15:55It's been a pleasure to be here.
15:56You too.
15:57Take it easy.
15:57OK.
16:05Anyway, it's time now to take a break.
16:07We'll be back in a few moments.
16:09See you then.
16:23Welcome back to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
16:26We have five contestants left.
16:28And, once again, they're going to play fastest finger first.
16:31You're all ready.
16:31Good.
16:32Here comes the question.
16:33Put these South American capital cities in order from north to south.
16:43Quito, Buenos Aires, Brasilia, Bogota.
16:57OK.
16:58Time's up.
16:59So, let's see the correct order.
17:00First of all, we've got Bogota in Colombia there at the top.
17:03Quito in Ecuador second.
17:04Then, Brasilia and Brazil.
17:07And down to Buenos Aires, wherever the hell that is.
17:10Right.
17:10Let's see how many people got that right.
17:14Only two.
17:15And who was the fastest?
17:19It was Roman Dubowski in 3.77 seconds.
17:24Well done, Roman.
17:27Your seat is there.
17:30And mine is here.
17:33So, you are Roman Dubowski, a retired IT analyst from Stockport.
17:38You don't look old enough to be retired.
17:40Oh, thank you.
17:40I'll take that as a compliment.
17:41Yeah, no, you can have it as a compliment.
17:42Amazing.
17:43Right, you know the rules, don't you?
17:45Yeah.
17:45We ask questions.
17:47One of them is about Emma Stone and some silly Gucci film.
17:50You get it wrong.
17:51And then we move on to the next contestant.
17:53That seems to me the form today.
17:56OK, look, let's get cracking, shall we?
17:58Yep.
17:59Let's play Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
18:02APPLAUSE
18:04Right.
18:05The start at the bottom.
18:07This is for £100.
18:10The planet Saturn famously has seven what?
18:15Rings, necklaces, bracelets or anklets?
18:20I think that's rings.
18:22Final answer.
18:23Correct answer.
18:24£100.
18:27This is for £200.
18:30At which of these locations is ice hockey traditionally played?
18:36Rink, range, court or field?
18:41That's a rink.
18:43Final answer.
18:44£200.
18:46This is for £300.
18:51If you respond to an opponent's attack with the same method, you are said to fight what?
18:59Fire with fire, smoke with smoke, embers with embers or cinders with cinders?
19:06I think that's got to be fire with fire.
19:10Final answer.
19:10Yep.
19:11300 quid.
19:13APPLAUSE
19:14This is for £500.
19:18What's the name of the famous mansion in Memphis that was Elvis Presley's home from 1957 to
19:251977?
19:28Paisley Park, Graceland, The Troubadour or Dollywood?
19:34Er, that's Graceland.
19:36Final answer.
19:37It is.
19:38£500.
19:39APPLAUSE
19:41Alright, so this is your last chance to go away with nothing.
19:45This is your £1,000 safety net question.
19:49What is mixed with vinegar, mustard and oil to make a basic mayonnaise?
19:56Plain flour?
19:58Salted butter?
19:59Egg yolk?
20:01Or double cream?
20:04I think I know the answer, but I am not sure.
20:08I think cooking is one of my weaker points.
20:10So I didn't want to use a lifeline this early, but I'm going to, and I'm going to ask the
20:16audience.
20:17OK, that's what they're there for.
20:19Audience, on your keypads, please.
20:22This is your question.
20:23What's mixed with vinegar, mustard and oil to make basic mayonnaise?
20:28And if you'd all vote now, please.
20:44Well, that's a whopping number there.
20:4893% have gone for egg yolk and then almost nothing for any of the other things.
20:53So I'll say egg yolk, final answer.
20:55And the correct answer.
20:57Well done, you've made it to your safety net.
20:59APPLAUSE
21:00The audience can now relax, we won't be needing you again.
21:05So, if you won big, what would you like to do with the money, do you think?
21:11Well, I do like travel.
21:13I see that. You've been to what, 56 countries?
21:15Yeah, strangely, I've not been to South America, even though that came up as a question just now.
21:20Mm.
21:21So, that is the one continent that I still haven't been to.
21:25So, I'd love to go there, just probably have a long trip around Peru or Brazil, say.
21:31Yeah. Even Argentina or Chile.
21:33Chile, yes.
21:35Argentina.
21:36I was trying to get your reaction.
21:38Chile is, I would recommend, the Atacama and then across the Alta Plana into Bolivia,
21:42absolutely spectacular part of the world.
21:44Well, let's hope we can get you there.
21:46Right, so, would you like to set your safety net at £2,000?
21:50No, thank you.
21:51Right, here is the question.
21:55In the Harry Potter books, which term is used to describe a non-magic person?
22:01Muggle, Moomin, Munchkin or Minion?
22:07Yeah, I think these are all terms from books about magic.
22:12But the one in Harry Potter is Muggle.
22:16So, that is my final answer.
22:19And that's £2,000.
22:26Right, so, safety net at £4,000?
22:28No, thanks.
22:29OK, here's the question.
22:32Which of these fashion retailers was founded in Japan?
22:38Zara, Uniqlo, Urban Outfitters or Fatface?
22:44Oh, crikey.
22:45I know one which isn't.
22:53I don't think Zara is founded in Spain.
22:55I can say that now because I'm not going to ask the audience.
22:57Yeah, you can. You can speak out loud.
22:59I wish I'd save this question for them now.
23:01No.
23:11Uniqlo sounds as if it might be Japanese, but then that doesn't actually follow.
23:16This is a very weak subject for me.
23:18Is it?
23:20Yeah.
23:26Have you been to Japan on your travel?
23:28No, I haven't. I'd love to go to Japan.
23:30It's one of those that's missing.
23:38I don't think looking at this is going to make it any better for me.
23:46So...
23:49I think I'll have to...
23:53phone a friend.
23:55OK.
23:56Who are we phoning?
23:59Erm...
24:00I'd like to phone Danuta.
24:02Danuta.
24:02She's my sister.
24:03Oh, your sister.
24:04Okey-doke. Marvellous.
24:06Can we call Danuta, please?
24:10PHONE RINGS
24:13What are the chances she'll know?
24:15I don't know.
24:16PHONE RINGS
24:18Hello?
24:19Hi, Danuta.
24:20Yes?
24:21Hi there. Jeremy Clarkson here from Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
24:24Hello.
24:25Right.
24:26Who?
24:27Right.
24:28Roman's made it into the chair. That's the good news.
24:31The bad news is he's stuck and needs your help.
24:34Can I just check you've got someone from our team there making sure you're not online?
24:39Er, yes. She's watching me now.
24:41OK, lovely.
24:42So, Roman, here's how it works. I'm sure you know, but I'll remind you.
24:4530 seconds to read out that quite short question and the four possible answers,
24:49leaving your sister enough time to have a think.
24:52OK?
24:52Your time starts now.
24:54Which of these fashion retailers was founded in Japan?
25:00Zara, Uniqlo, Urban Outfitters or Fatface?
25:05Uniqlo.
25:07Excellent. Are you sure?
25:09Yes, I'm sure.
25:10Absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
25:12OK.
25:16Eleven seconds left.
25:18Yeah.
25:18You thought that as well, didn't you?
25:20Well, she knows a lot of stuff.
25:21She knows a lot of stuff that I don't.
25:23So, er, I will go with Uniqlo.
25:27Final answer.
25:30She was right.
25:31You're right. Well done.
25:32The truth.
25:37Zara is Spanish.
25:38I think you said that, didn't you?
25:40Urban Outfitters is Philadelphia.
25:42Fatface is actually British.
25:44Right.
25:45If you'd have asked me, I'd have said it was between Fatface and Urban Outfitters.
25:49Right.
25:49There you go.
25:50Now, hopefully we'll have some questions that aren't that way inclined in this show.
25:57I hope so.
25:57But anyway, we've surely dealt with them all now.
26:01Would you like to set your safety net at £8,000?
26:04Even though I've lost two lifelines, no, I'd like to carry on.
26:06All right.
26:07This is the question.
26:10Which of these major historic events took place in the middle of the 14th century?
26:17English Civil War, Norman Conquest, Black Death, Wars of the Roses?
26:25I like history, so I'm glad this has come up.
26:28Yeah.
26:29Yeah, the English Civil War was in the 17th.
26:33Norman Conquest was around 1066.
26:37And the Wars of the Roses was in the 15th.
26:41The Black Death, I think, was something like 13-something.
26:45That's the 14th century.
26:46So, I will go with the Black Death final answer.
26:52Correct answer.
26:53Hold on.
26:55You worked it out beautifully.
26:58Although I'm surprised the way things are going this evening,
27:01the question wasn't,
27:02which Italian designer designed the tunics used by the soldiers in the Wars of the Roses?
27:09OK, safety net at £16,000?
27:12No, carry on a bit.
27:14Right, here is the question.
27:18Which of these sea creatures is not classed as cartilaginous?
27:25Shark, ray, dolphin or skate?
27:32Yeah, I think sharks, rays and skates, they don't have bones.
27:41Um, they have, you know, cartilages instead.
27:45Whereas a dolphin does.
27:49And a dolphin's a mammal anyway, and all mammals have bones.
27:52So, I will go with dolphin, final answer.
27:58Beautifully worked out.
27:59Absolutely right.
28:00Yep.
28:05I can't say I'd ever seen the word cartilaginous written down before, though.
28:10Or I indeed heard it.
28:11But there we are.
28:12Well done.
28:12Well worked out.
28:13Now, though, I'm afraid we have to take a short break, but we will be back in a few moments.
28:17See you then.
28:31Welcome back to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
28:33Now, we're here with Roman.
28:34He's on £16,000, but only has two lifelines remaining.
28:40So, Roman, would you like to set your safety net, your second one, at £32,000?
28:45Well, because I did lose those lifelines probably earlier than I'd like, to be honest, I think I will set
28:51it at £32,000.
28:52Old school.
28:53Right.
28:53Can we set the second safety net, then, please, at £32,000?
28:58Right, that's done.
28:59Now, let's see if we can get you there.
29:01This is the question.
29:04Which word refers to a metal that can be stretched out into a thin wire without breaking?
29:14Sonorous, conductive, ductile, or lustrous?
29:20Yeah, I think the one of these which means this description is ductile.
29:29I think sonorous is to do with sound and lustrous to how it appears and conductive to, you know, generate
29:35heat and so on.
29:37So, I will go with ductile and final answer.
29:44And the right answer.
29:46Yep.
29:53You were right, lustrous actually means shining, that's the only thing.
29:56I think it was slightly off.
29:58But anyway, beautifully, beautifully worked out.
30:01So, you've reached your safety net.
30:04Let's hope you don't kick yourself later that you set it too low.
30:08That means you've got a free shot now at this question, £64,000.
30:11Shall we have a look at it?
30:13Yes, please.
30:13Here we go.
30:16Which of these plays is part of the 20th century theatrical movement known as the Theatre of the Absurd?
30:25Death of a Salesman, The Glass Menagerie, The Seagull, or Waiting for Godot?
30:36Well, I do go to the theatre occasionally, and I think I know which one this is, but I'll have
30:43to go through them one by one.
30:44Um, Death of a Salesman is by Arthur Miller, I don't think that's absurd, and The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee
30:55Williams, and The Seagull by Chekhov.
30:59And I don't think any of those would really count as absurd.
31:03That's why as Waiting for Godot probably is.
31:07So, it can't be the other three.
31:11So, I'll go for Waiting for Godot, final answer.
31:16The right answer.
31:18Again.
31:21I have actually seen The Seagull, and I would call it Theatre of the Absurdly Boring.
31:30That's just me.
31:32Right, you're on £64,000.
31:35If you won a lot, what would you do?
31:38Well, I suppose some home improvements would be nice.
31:41Probably think of, actually, a new kitchen, I think, is probably what might come out.
31:49Yeah, I think you've got a new kitchen already.
31:50Or is it a massive kitchen?
31:52I don't know, two new kitchens.
31:55I quite like the lack of ambition with that.
31:58I thought you'd say you want to travel to, well, you say South America.
32:01Well, yeah.
32:01So, what would be your favourite subjects that you hope crop up?
32:05Well, geography has already come up.
32:08History has come up.
32:09So, I like both of those.
32:12I think a literature one has also already come up.
32:16So, we've already had theatre.
32:19Probably more history.
32:21More history.
32:21Yeah.
32:22You never know.
32:23You never know.
32:24Let's have a look, shall we, at the question which is worth £125,000.
32:31Six-figure money.
32:32Here it comes.
32:35The Rhone River begins its journey in which mountain range?
32:40The Alps, the Apennines, the Carpathians and the Pyrenees.
32:46Well, I was hoping another geography question would come up.
32:51The Rhone is entirely in France and it starts in the Alps.
32:58Because, even though the Pyrenees are partially in France, the source of the river isn't there.
33:07So, I will say Alps, final answer.
33:12The first question this evening I've known the answer to.
33:17So did you.
33:18That's the right answer.
33:18Well done.
33:22Good man.
33:24Six figures now.
33:25Excellent.
33:26This kitchen is made of the most exquisite marble in my mind.
33:31Both of the kitchens you're buying are beautiful, beautiful.
33:34Zinked finishes and...
33:36I'll learn to make a mayonnaise on one of them.
33:37Yeah.
33:38Yeah, don't forget your eggs.
33:41Right.
33:41Now then.
33:42Here we go.
33:43Ready for this?
33:44Because this question, Rhone, is a quarter of a million pounds.
33:49If you get it right.
33:51Let's have a look at the question.
33:54Which of these figures from Greek mythology is not known for slaying a monster?
34:03Theseus, Perseus, Adonis or Bulleruffin?
34:11I like this question as well, actually.
34:18Theseus, he slew the Minotaur.
34:24And, let's think about this.
34:27Bellerophon slew something.
34:28I think it was the Chimera.
34:32Perseus.
34:34Yes, Perseus slew the Medusa.
34:35That's right.
34:36So Adonis, I don't think he slew anybody.
34:41I think he just looked at his reflection.
34:45So, I think I'll go for Adonis.
34:48Final answer.
34:5293,000 pounds riding on that.
34:56But don't worry, that is the correct answer.
35:01You've just won a quarter of a million pounds.
35:05250 grand.
35:08Am I allowed to go, whoo-hoo-hoo?
35:11Yeah, you can if you want, yes.
35:12Hey, I'm a bit excited.
35:13I can see why you were so cross to be burning lifelines earlier on.
35:17Because, looks like we've got a proper encyclopedia in a shirt here.
35:23This is tremendous.
35:25Absolutely tremendous.
35:26I'm really enjoying this, Roman.
35:28Let's go on, shall we?
35:30This next question is worth half a million.
35:35500 grand.
35:38Surely you've got to have something in mind other than a kitchen.
35:43I don't know, I don't want to say a new house, because I'm not sure that I should be saying
35:47that, but we'll see when we get there, if we get there.
35:51All right, well, my fingers are crossed for you, they really are, I'm sure everybody's...
35:55Let's have a look at the question, shall we?
35:59Presented in 1901, the first Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for the discovery of what?
36:08Wireless telegraphy, x-rays, cosmic radiation, or quantum mechanics?
36:20Well, the first Nobel Prize in Physics went to Wilhelm Röntgen, and he discovered x-rays.
36:32Just go through the options.
36:34I have to remind you here, because I know you can get giddy sitting in that seat.
36:39If you get this wrong, you lose £218,000.
36:46Obviously, if you get it right, you win half a million, so...
36:50I think there are other figures connected with A, C and D.
36:55But I'm pretty sure that the first winner of the Nobel Prize was Röntgen.
37:03And he discovered x-rays.
37:07And it's not the other three.
37:10So I'll say x-rays, final answer.
37:16Jeez.
37:22That is the right answer.
37:28You've just won half a million pounds!
37:33APPLAUSE
37:39Does it feel weird, thinking, I'm now sitting here half a million pounds better off than I was half an
37:46hour ago?
37:48Excuse me, I'll take a drink.
37:51It does, but it's happened so quickly.
37:53Especially after getting the mayonnaise question wrong.
37:56Yeah.
37:57I mean, I thought, oh, here goes another one who doesn't know this and he doesn't know that.
38:01And here we are, half a million pounds!
38:04Actually, I can just go through this.
38:07Wireless was Marconi and Brown in 1909,
38:10Cosmic Radiation, Victor Hess in 1936,
38:13and Quantum Physics was Werner Heisenberg in 1932.
38:17I'm sure you knew all that. You seem to know everything.
38:20Wow!
38:21Well, really sorry about this, but it's time to take a break.
38:25Yeah.
38:27We'll be back in a few moments.
38:29You're not going away.
38:30See you then.
38:33APPLAUSE
38:44Yes, yes, yes.
38:47Welcome back to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
38:51We're here with Roman.
38:52He's on half a million pounds.
38:56Yeah.
38:57And, get this, he has two lifelines remaining.
39:04Now, one of them is 50-50 and the other one is me.
39:09LAUGHTER
39:10What's going on in your chest, Roman?
39:12Strangely, I've become less nervous as it's gone on.
39:15I was more nervous at the beginning.
39:18So, I don't know what's going to come up.
39:20Just hope it's something that...
39:22I don't, it hasn't come up here, I haven't called for it yet.
39:25I'm nervous to do that.
39:27Is there anything you're hoping for?
39:28You just think, oh, I wish it was...
39:32This.
39:33Classical music is not...
39:34Classical music?
39:35Is not a bad one.
39:36Yeah.
39:36Well, let's see.
39:38Here we go.
39:39This is it.
39:40Ready?
39:40This is your million pound question.
39:47Used since 1876, which trademark logo is described in the James Joyce novel, Ulysses, and depicted in works by Manet
39:58and Picasso?
40:02Bass Ale, the famous Grouse, Coca-Cola, or Stella Artois?
40:11That's why.
40:19I've got something in my head.
40:20Oh.
40:21But I'm not sure it's right.
40:24I've got something in my head and it's called hope.
40:27But I mean, I've still got two lifelines.
40:29You have.
40:31And obviously, I mean, this is the only question I can use those lifelines on.
40:36It is.
40:37No point going home with them.
40:38Yeah, exactly.
40:39So, can I take 50-50?
40:42Of course you can.
40:4350-50 on a million quid question.
40:45What a man.
40:46All right, computer, could you take away two wrong answers, please?
40:53Right.
40:54I think Bass Ale is one of the oldest trademarks that has ever existed.
41:01And I think there's a painting by Manet which has it in.
41:09I think it's possibly in London somewhere.
41:13I think there's a lady, she is in front of a bar and there are some bottles behind her.
41:23And I think one of them might have the Bass logo, which is a red triangle.
41:33Coca-Cola does go back a long way as well.
41:38But I've got a feeling that because I can sort of remember it on this Manet painting,
41:44I can't imagine either of those two, certainly not Manet,
41:48would have used Coca-Cola.
41:52I'm going to go for Bass Ale.
41:56And that's my final answer.
42:04You didn't even, I mean, you don't know that.
42:08It's because of the painting.
42:16You've won a million pounds.
42:19You've won a million pounds.
42:23That's an extraordinary win.
42:27That's fantastic.
42:30That is fantastic.
42:32Only the second Manet.
42:38Come on.
42:43Yes.
42:47it happens so infrequently I don't even know what to say and you did it without my help
42:57I knew at the bass I went to school in Burton-on-Trump but that was my contribution
43:02well that's just extraordinary now come come on for real tell us how this is a terrible
43:07question but how does it feel well it doesn't feel real at the moment it hasn't quite sunk in
43:12it's one of those slow-motion things that will probably sink in a bit later today but at the
43:18moment I just take things one at a time who are you gonna call first of all are you gonna
43:23probably my sister because yeah she has helped me she did help you that she did I need to help
43:30you yeah I love it's a time when I'm sure the whole audience and me and everybody watching
43:37at home is thinking oh here's another one you know we'll be gone at 32 not a bit of a
43:41million pounds
43:43unbelievable well I just I mean I don't even know what to say other than enjoy it thank you enjoy
43:51it because all of your life assimilating that knowledge has paid off so well done you ladies
43:56and gentlemen gentlemen a great champion the second only
44:11well
44:13wow
44:18Unsurprisingly that's all we've got time for tonight we will be back next time though with
