APPLAUSE Hello, everybody. Hello!
Thank you so much. Thank you.
Hello and welcome to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Tonight, we start with six fresh hopefuls
and the usual routine of NPW -
that's names, places and waving.
AUDIENCE LAUGHS Let's meet them. They are...
Mike Parkinson from Epsom. APPLAUSE
Dawn Sharpe from Chichester. APPLAUSE
Mo Ghallab from Birmingham. APPLAUSE
Anam Mann from Blackburn. APPLAUSE
Neil Monteiro from Cardiff... APPLAUSE
..and Dani Greest from Sunderland. APPLAUSE
OK. Now to see who gets to sit in the chair,
we're going to play Fastest Finger First.
No distraction from the audience, please.
Here comes the question.
OK. Time's up. So let's see the correct order.
First of all, we've got CX - that's 110.
MX - that's 1,010.
MCX - which is 1,110,
and MM - which is 2,000.
Right, now let's see how many people got that right.
Only one?! Dawn Sharpe in 6.59 seconds.
Well done! APPLAUSE
There you are. Welcome.
Have a seat.
And I shall take mine. Lovely!
So, you're Dawn Sharpe,
PR consultant from Chichester. Yes. Yep.
Joined today by Andrew in the audience.
Where's Andrew? Give us a wave. Hi, Jeremy, here. Hi, Andrew.
There we go. Now, you know the rules, of course.
I do. Ready?Thank you.
Yeah, let's give it a go.
OK, let's play Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
APPLAUSE
This is your first question for £100.
That's travel abroad - B - Jeremy. That's my final answer.
And it's the right answer. Well done.
So this is your £200 question.
That'll be - A - leap year. Final answer.
And that's £200.
So this is for £300.
That'll be - C - fiction, Jeremy. My final answer.
And the right answer again, £400.
This one is for £500. Here we go.
That'll be - A - curling. Final answer, please.
And that's £500.
And now... APPLAUSE
..this is your thousand pound question.
This is your first safety net.
Thank you. Here it comes.
That'll be - D - Donatella Versace. Final answer.
And the right answer. So that's £1,000!
You're there! APPLAUSE
The least you're going away with.
Yeah. Stella McCartney is British. Um, Gaultier's French.
And, um, Vera Wang was born in America.OK.
Right, now, I've gotta ask,
what subjects are you hoping crop up?
Who knows what's in the brain of an old woman like myself? So...
Uh, I like books, I like films,
I've got Phone A Friends who like sports, so who knows?
But in there, you don't have any specific interests?
Uh, books, plays, probably. Books and plays.
Um, maybe a little bit of horse racing.
I'm-I'm happy with whatever.
Let's give it a whirl. Good.
Well, now, first things first, you wanna set your safety net?
Your second one at £2,000?
Not just yet, I think. Righty-ho, then.
This is your £2,000 question. Here we go.
That'll be - A - anthology. That's my final answer.
And, of course, that is the correct answer. So that's the £2,000.
APPLAUSE
Now, that's annoying cos we've had your, um...
Yeah, that's gone now. ..literature question.That's gone.
So we're hoping for horse racing higher up?Yep.
Would you like to set your safety net at £4,000?
I don't think I will.
I've still got my lifelines, so let's press on.
Right. Here's the question, then.
Well, sweets are another big part of my life,
as you can probably tell,
So I know that one...
that'll be M&S food.
Final answer - B.
And the right answer! So that's £4,000.
APPLAUSE
Right. Safety net at 8,000?
No, let's plough on, shall we? Okey-doke. Here's the question.
Now... Uh...
I think I know, but I'm not entirely sure of this one.
I haven't been to any of them.
Um, I might ask you this one, Jeremy.
I'm going to Ask The Host. OK, here's what I think.
It's lucky I've been to all of them.
Suriname is where the Dutch got their football team from.
That's in South America. Right.
Armenia's, um, here, Europe, Honduras is elsewhere.Yeah.
Um, no, it's Namibia, former German territory.
Once, I think, known as South West Africa.
But anyway, it's Namibia.
Just check, "Which of these countries IS in Africa."
Yeah. Is Namibia.
Been there many times. Great place. That's my final answer.
So that's the one I thought it was as well, actually.
Which means that I'm gonna give Namibia - C -
as my final answer, please.
OK. Computer, can you reveal the correct answer, please?
And there we are! APPLAUSE
£8,000.
Thank you. And that means
you're only seven questions away from a million.
So if there were just seven things in your head,
which I bet there are...
..and it all tallies up nicely, got a million quid!
What would you do with it? Oh!
I've always wanted a really great holiday in America.
I've been to America once,
and I've always dreamed of going back,
having one of those driving trips.
Yeah, yeah. But kind of not roughing it.
OK, well, with a million pounds, you don't need to.
I'm not gonna be able to do it on eight,
but, yeah, I'd love to do that. So that would be my absolute dream.
OK. Well, let's see if we can get you there.
Would you like to set your safety net at £16,000?
No, I don't think so, thank you very much.
Okey-doke. Here comes your question.
Now, I seem to remember in Reservoir Dogs,
they were all Mr Pink, Mr Blue, Mr Green...
I seem to remember there was quite a lot of that.
Pulp Fiction... I don't remember him in -
that's not to say he wasn't - but I don't remember him.
I haven't seen The Hateful Eight.
Django Unchained...
..was, uh, no...
Cowboys. Mr Brandt, I...
I'm leaning towards Reservoir Dogs.
I may have to...
Mm, let's think.
I may phone a friend, actually,
I've got a friend who's very good on films.
I say a friend, he's my brother.
I am going to phone my brother, please.
OK. Your brother's name is? Gary.
OK. Can we call Gary, please?
So he's a film buff?
Yeah, he is, so hopefully on this.
PHONE RINGS He'll know his Quentin Tarantinos?
I hope so, he says he knows about films. Let's see.
GARY:'Hello.' Hi there, Gary.
It's Jeremy Clarkson here from Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
'Good to speak to you. Very nice to speak to you, Jeremy.'
You too. You too.
Now, got your sister here, as I'm sure you know.
'Yeah.' And she needs your help, obviously,
hence the phone call.
Um, can I just check you've got someone from our office there,
making sure that... 'Yes, he has his camera.
'He is filming as we speak. Yeah.'
Well, you do whatever you wanna do.
LAUGHTER
Here's how it works, Dawn, I'm sure you know,
but I'll just remind you cos it's a tense time.
I'm gonna hand it over to you in a second.
You'll have 30 seconds to read out the question and possible answers,
leaving enough time for your bro to have a think.
OK. Um... You ready? Yep.
Your time starts now.
SHE READS QUESTION AND OPTIONS
'It's not my strongest one, Tarantino, Dawn, on that one.
'I don't wanna give you an answer, um, and get it wrong. I...
OK. 'So I'm...
'I'm gonna say pass on that one. But the best of luck.
'But, yeah, it's not a strong subject for me... Oh!
'..that one.' OK. Thank you.
That went well (!) No, it didn't.
LAUGHTER
He's paying me back for all his Chinese burns I used to give him.
LAUGHTER
Younger brother, is he? No, he's older.
Older brother! OK, so I am going to...
I think, then, ask the audience, please.
Right. Um, audience, on your keypads, if you don't mind, please.
Here's the question. HE REPEATS QUESTION
If you'd all vote now, please.
Well, there we are.
That's, um, a whopping... Yes.
..80%. And that's the one I thought.
So I should have just gone with it.
But I am going to trust this lovely audience,
and I'm going to say - C - Reservoir Dogs.
Final answer, please, Jeremy.
Well done, audience. Well done, you. Thank you.
Yes, um, I don't remember how he... what he was in Hateful Eight,
Django Unchained - he exploded. Right.
And then in... He was the man where they had to go to his house,
and he made coffee in... In Pulp Fiction, yeah.
Uh, anyway, uh, you're doing well.
And now I'm afraid we must pause momentarily
cos it's time to take a break.
We'll be back in a few moments, though. See you then.
APPLAUSE
(TV) She's done it!
Welcome back to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
We're here with Dawn.
She's on £16,000, one lifeline remaining
and no safety net set yet.
So, what's your plan?
£32,000? Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
I'm gonna set it at 32, please. Thank you very much.
OK, computer, can we set the second safety net,
please, at £32,000?
And now let's see if we can get you there.Yeah.
This is your question.
SHE SIGHS Right.
I know them all as painters and indeed Ninja Turtles in some cases.
So, er...
I am going to have to go 50/50, Jeremy...
JEREMY INHALES SHARPLY ..which is gonna be a tricky one
because I don't really know the answer.
So... erm...
it would be more helpful if I did.
Erm...
Yeah.
I'm gonna have to go 50/50.
OK. Computer, could you take away two wrong answers, please?
Ooh. OK.
This is one of those nightmarish moments
where you are looking at both of them and not having a clue.
Well, the situation is, just so I can...Yeah.
..save you from working it out,
if you get it wrong, you go home with £1,000...Yes.
..which is much less than you're on now.
Yeah. If you get it right,
you get to your second safety net,
which gives you a free shot at 64,000.Yes.
So it's one of those tricky ones, this one.It is.
Cos temptation to go on is huge. It is.
But the penalty for getting it wrong is also so huge.
Is also huge, yeah, and I really, unfortunately,
if I was at home, I'd be Googling this now.
Sadly, I can't.
So I am going to have to take the money. I don't know.
I don't really want to risk a huge jump drop-down.
So I hate... Sorry to be boring.
I'm gonna have to take the money, which I'm very pleased with.
Don't get me wrong. Oh, no, I bet you are.
Yeah. Erm, and is that your final answer?
That's my final answer, yeah.
OK, well, not surprised you're pleased
because you, Dawn Sharpe, are leaving here with £16,000.
Thank you very much. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Well done. Well done.
Except you're not leaving just yet.
It's time to add a little bit of salt in the wound.Yeah.
Had you taken leave of your senses
and behaved like you said you would in your notes and be impulsive...
Yes. ..what would you have said,
if you had nothing to lose?
I would have probably gone with Caravaggio.
Now, you see, if you'd have said Caravaggio...
..you'd now be leaving here with £1,000.
Yeah. Oh, good.
So the Ninja Turtle was the winner. The ninja...
It was speaking to you? Yeah.
It was speaking to you, but not loudly enough, unfortunately.No.
Nevertheless, it's been great fun having you here.
Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, Dawn Sharpe.
Thank you. Well done.
Thank you. Congratulations.
Thank you. Thank you. And there you are.
OK.
Five contestants left,
and once again, they're going to play Fastest Finger First.
Nice and quiet in the audience, please.
Here comes the question.
OK. Time's up.
So, let's first of all see the correct order.
We've got Morecambe up at the top, then Llandudno,
next one down, Southend-on-Sea, and then, of course, Bournemouth.
Right, now let's see how many people got that right.
Yes, it's three.
So, who was the fastest?
It was Neil Monteiro
in 4.03 seconds. APPLAUSE
Well done. Well done.
So, congratulations. Best of luck.
Best of luck.
OK, so, you are Neil Monteiro, space engineer,
and you're from Cardiff? Yes.
Now, I'm sure you know the rules.
We've got lots to talk about with space and engineering,
so let's get cracking, shall we? All good, yeah.
Let's play Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Right. This is for £100.
You know, the whole time, I've been worried
about going out on the first question,
but I think I am confident in saying that it's "denim".
And I'm going to have to hear the two little words...
Cos I'm not that confident! I think it's "denim", final answer.
Look, you're wearing it.
Yeah, they're not blue, though. These are green.
It's still denim, and it's the right answer. Well done.
Well done. NEIL CHUCKLES
This is your £200 question.
Erm, I mean, I've been there more than once.
I think it's safe to say the answer is "Fringe".
Final answer. And that's £200.
APPLAUSE
So this is for £300.
I've actually had a go at one of these before.
My other half booked me in for a class. It was good fun.
It is "trapeze". Final answer.
And the right answer.
Not entirely certain it would be good fun.Yeah, yeah.
Up and down like that. Yeah.
However you wanna do it. Good G training for space.
Yes. Right, this is for £500.
So, I mean, I was about five when this happened,
but it is, er, definitely the Berlin Wall
when David Hasselhoff afterwards got on top of it.
I'm not quite sure of the order of what happened,
but David Hasselhoff was involved, so it's "Berlin Wall", final answer.
Er, the right answer, yes. NEIL LAUGHS
And that's £500. David Hasselhoff.
"I'm gonna tear down this wall."
I thought that was Ronald Reagan, but there we are.
It was David Hasselhoff all along. NEIL CHUCKLES
This is your last chance to go away with nothing.
This is the question for £1,000. Here it comes.
The one thing that I have dreaded coming up was...
What, this specific song? Yes.
Well, anything that involved, like, pop music particularly.
Now, when you said it, must be "Mariah Carey", surely.
Now the answers are in front of me, I'm like,
"Could it have been Jennifer Lopez?"
It's definitely not Alanis Morissette.
It's definitely not Celine Dion.
Erm, it sounds stupid, but I'm actually calling this a risk,
and I'm willing to embarrass myself on TV,
but I'll go "Mariah Carey", final answer.
That is not a nice face that I wanna see.
I'm just amazed that you're risking it.
Oh, well, why not, why not? It's right. You've got £1,000.
Thank you! You've reached your safety net.
Right, you're on £1,000. Yeah.
You're on £1,000. Yeah. Let's go.
Well, actually, let's... first of all,
this space engineering business. Yeah.
What do you actually do?
I work at one of the most exciting places in the world
to be working at the moment,
basically developing, manufacturing and space,
so building stuff, making stuff, bringing it back to the Earth.
It's a fleet of satellites that goes into space.
You make your thing on that, and then it comes back down.
The whole thing comes back down intact,
pick it up, bring it back to the person.
So my job is to basically work out,
well, who wants to put stuff into these satellites?
I'm guessing you want engineering questions to crop up. I mean...
No, cos if you ask me an engineering question,
I don't know it, everyone's gonna go,
"Why has that guy got a job in engineering?"
My boss is gonna be like, "Well, I'm gonna have to sack that guy."
No, I don't want engineering.
So not engineering. Anything that you do hope for?
Er, generally, I like film stuff.
Erm, yeah, engineering, science, engineering would actually be fine.
That sort of stuff is good. Well, let's find out, shall we?
Would you like to set your safety net at £2,000?
I think 2,000 probably is a little too early.
I'm looking at more like the 8,000. Eight?
Yeah. NEIL CHUCKLES
8,000, just gamble after that. Yeah. THEY CHUCKLE
Well, listen, the answer's no, then, is it?
No, the answer's no. The answer's no. Right.
Here comes your £2,000 question.
I mean, I'm pretty sure the answer
that you're looking for here is rain.
But, I mean... I mean, they all get involved.
Er, you know, cos the sun kind of heats up water from the sea,
goes up into the air.
It's part of the water cycle,
but rain, I mean, that's surely what's meant
cos precipitation just means rain, can mean snow as well, or hail.
But I think, in this case, you're looking for rain,
so, er, I'll go final answer - rain.
And the right answer. Yes.
APPLAUSE
Right, we're going to take a short break.
We'll be back in a few moments. See you then.
Welcome back to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
We're here with Neil. He's on £2,000.
All the lifelines are remaining,
and he's a space engineer! LAUGHTER
Right. Safety net at £4,000?
No, I won't set it at 4,000. All right.
Erm, so here comes the question, then.
READS QUESTION
Ugh. Yuck. OK, so the Seine obviously goes through Paris.
The Loire goes through the Loire Valley,
which I'm sure you've been to,
it's one of the most beautiful places in Europe,
castles everywhere.
The Elbe is Germany, isn't it?
But that doesn't mean it couldn't go through France,
and the Dordogne, I have no idea, but it sounds French.
Er... so that is...
that is not one that I like at all.
GROANS
I feel so dumb.
If I didn't go for Dordogne, and it was...
It's definitely not the Seine or Loire.
Ahh. Erm... I'm gonna...
I will be amazed if you haven't travelled all over France,
so I'm gonna ask the host, please.
OK, here's what I think.
It's the Elbe. Dordogne is in France.
I was on holiday there only two years ago.
Three? No, it was before COVID. Anyway, recently. Beautiful.
Erm, yes, so it's... it's the Elbe,
and that's 100%, and that's my final answer.
I'm so sad about using that lifeline
because I was hoping we'd get higher up,
and we could chat about space engineering for a while.
But you've used me on not space engineering.I know.
But at least you gave me a really definite answer, so I'll say it.
It's Elbe, and final answer.
OK. Computer, could we reveal the correct answer, please?
There it is.
APPLAUSE
Now, safety net at 8,000. Three lifelines remaining.
Eight questions away from a million. Eight.
You know what? 8,000's a lot of money.
I would love to start just having fun higher up.
So I'll say I am actually gonna set my safety net at 8,000,
and then I'm gonna do a lot of gambling later on.
LAUGHTER
OK. Can we please set, ridiculously,
but set the second safety net at £8,000?
That's done. Now we've gotta get you there, of course.Yeah.
And this is the question. There it is.
READS QUESTION
OK, now just double check before because I did say that.
But omnivorous obviously means you eat everything, which is kind of me.
Omnipresent obviously means you're everywhere.
Omnibus is a big book or a very old-fashioned word for a bus.
Er, so, I mean, it's omniscient.
"Science", by the way, from Latin means "to know".
Er, which is what obviously the word "science" comes from.
So if it wasn't omniscient, then I'm gonna be very surprised,
so I'll say as omniscient, final answer.
And the right answer!
We're there, and you made it...
APPLAUSE
..to your £8,000 safety net.
Looking at your notes to say what you would do.
You said if you won, you'd like to buy a rocket.
Yes. LAUGHTER
Standard could probably sell you one for eight grand,
but I don't think you'll get a real space rocket.
I mean, one that gets you into space.
You buy a rocket for eight grand pretty easy.
What I actually want to do is I'd love to buy, like, a rocket engine.
Like, a really classic, like an F1 rocket engine.
And not that you can buy one of those for eight grand,
or even a million, but... No. Saturn V?
Is that the F1, the Saturn V rocket? Exactly.
So, yeah, one of those just, you know, just to have it, look at it.
They're beautiful things. So you wanna buy one of those?
I'd love to, yeah. Right.
You're there. You've got £8,000.
You've now got a free shot at 16,000. Nothing to lose.
Let's have a look at the question, shall we? Here it is.
READS QUESTION
I mean, I'm 99% sure it's Elizabeth I.
Erm, wasn't it Francis Drake
that that sort of led the English fleet against them?
Erm... Because I'm so... So, I said I'd gamble, right?
Yeah.I am so happy with £8,000. That is a lot of money.
So it would be fun just to...
just to take a risk with this.
Keep the lifelines for later.
If I get it wrong, so what?
I go home with eight grand, right?
That's right. So it's Elizabeth I, final answer.
The right answer! APPLAUSE
Elizabeth I, and it was Francis Drake.
It was indeed Francis Drake.
So, this is for £32,000.
Ready? Here's the question.
READS QUESTION
OK, so it's not Omega cos the logo of Omega is an Omega,
which is like a horseshoe shape.
So that's an easy one. It's not Tag Heuer.
They just have a badge, don't they,
with a tag and a Heuer on it or something?
I had a feeling it was Rolex when it came up,
but as you might guess, being a man that's very happy with £8,000,
I don't own a Rolex. JEREMY CHUCKLES
Breitling... LAUGHS
Breitling is...
They've got a lot of, like, aviation kind of symbolism,
haven't they, with their stuff?
So, why would it be a five-pointed coronet?
I don't know. Erm...
Yeah, I can definitely rule out C and D.
I'm happy to rule those out.
So is it... is it Breitling or Rolex?
I don't know.
Er, so I think what I'll do is I'll...
Against my better judgement, I'm gonna use my 50-50 now.
OK. Computer, could you take away two wrong answers, please?
Sweet. It's A. It's Rolex, final answer.
The right answer! APPLAUSE
I actually had to pull my sleeve down.
Cos that is an Omega,
so I just thought, "I better not let him see that."
Yeah. Right, we've gotta move on,
er, because it's time to take a break.
Join us in a few moments for the final part
of tonight's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
APPLAUSE
Welcome back to Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
We're here with Neil. He's on £32,000.
He set his safety net at 8,000 and then said,
"Well, I'm just going to be reckless and stupid
"for the rest of the game."
So, next question is for £64,000.
You still got two lifelines remaining.
So you don't have to be reckless or stupid just yet.
Let's have a look at it, shall we? Yeah. Yeah, totally.
Here we go.
READS QUESTION
OK, I'm gonna try and reason it out,
but I'm probably gonna end up asking the audience for this,
but I'll try and think about it, so...
Er, recent history, I know England played Brazil
in the... was it the 2002 World Cup and lost?
That was quarter-final. That's... I remember that one.
Erm, it's the one in, er, was it Japan, South Korea?
So that doesn't help because all I need to know
is whether or not they actually won.
Erm, but I can't think of them playing Brazil more recently.
Unless... Unless they played Brazil in the most recent World Cup,
which I didn't even watch, so...
I... Which they probably did. They probably did,
and everybody sat here telling me that I should go for that.
Italy. Italy...
Didn't they meet Italy in, like, the last Euros or something?
I don't know why I keep asking... I keep looking at you
and trying to ask you like you're gonna give something away.
And you look at me like you've had something bad for lunch.
LAUGHTER
That's my poker face.
Er...
Argentina, obviously, there's the famous Hand of God incident,
but that's a long time ago.
And again, that's when England lost to Argentina.
But there could've been another time when they played and won,
and I don't know that.
Erm, Spain looks like the most likely
cos Spain have been good quite recently,
but they haven't always been good at football.
So I'm thinking, like, from a purely reason point of view,
Brazil, Italy, Argentina, are always quite good at football.
Spain haven't always been that good.
Spain seems like the one I would lean to,
but, like, I've been through it,
and I am no more confident that I know this answer.
So I think this is Ask The Audience time.
So I will ask the audience, please.
Well, they've had plenty of time to think about it.
NEIL LAUGHS
OK, audience, on your keypads.
This is your question.
REPEATS QUESTION
OK, if you'd all vote now, please.
Right. Well, now, there we are. That's, erm...
Just over half have gone with Spain.
Yeah. Italy is 20%,
Argentina 17, and Brazil 10.
So what does that...
..do in your head?
I'm very happy with £8,000.
And it's a lot more fun to keep going,
so I'm gonna say Spain, final answer.
Neil... Yes.
You've just lost £24,000.
Oh, my God. The correct answer is Argentina.
Ohh. Yeah, we beat them long, long ago
in the 14th century, but... LAUGHTER
..we beat them in '62, '66, and again in '02.
You see, that makes me feel better cos, you know, good for England.
Yeah, I'm just rabbiting on to try and...
LAUGHTER
Good for England, yeah! Go, England!
You are, though,
as you've confidently predicted from the get-go, actually,
leaving here with £8,000. I'm very happy with it too.
Thank you very much. APPLAUSE
And, erm...
I gotta be honest, you were a very, very good, fun contender.
Yeah, I had fun, I definitely had fun.
No... No regrets at all. No, well, it's good...
it's good to have you here.
Ladies and gentlemen, Neil Monteiro.
APPLAUSE Well done.
OK, four contestants left.
Once again, they're going to do Fastest Finger First.
We're all ready? Nice and quiet in the audience, please.
Here comes the question.
READS QUESTION
OK. Time's up. So, let's first of all see the correct order.
We got millilitre at the bottom,
then a tablespoon,
then a pint,
and then a litre.
Right, so,
how many got that right?
Three did,
and the fastest was...
Mo Ghallab in 3.76 seconds.
Congratulations. APPLAUSE
Join me.
Well done.
Have a seat.
So, you are Mo Ghallab, a surgeon...
from Birmingham. Erm...
Obviously, you know the form.
Should we get going, then? Please.
OK, let's play Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
APPLAUSE
All right. So, this is your question for £100.
READS QUESTION
Er... D, fish, final answer.
Sorry, I've gone all blurry. Absolutely right. So, £100.
APPLAUSE
Now, this is for £200.
READS QUESTION
Slightly blasphemous but it's Madonna, A, final answer.
Absolutely right. There we are, £200.
APPLAUSE
So, this is for £300.
READS QUESTION
Well, unfortunately, I hear that a lot, so it's B.
You're a doctor, of course.
Even before that. B, illegible, final answer.
And the correct answer.
APPLAUSE
Erm, right, this is your £500 question.
READS QUESTION
Erm...
So, I don't know.
And I've always got the £500 question wrong at home.
So that might be a moment for a good TV tonight.
LAUGHTER
But I think it's... I wanna say it's...
Let's not waste time. Morris dance, final answer,
and let's have a good moment on TV.
It's not a brilliant moment on TV.
It's not like the chandelier with Del Boy and so on,
but it's a right answer, so we move on.
APPLAUSE
This is for £1,000.
This is your first safety net. Erm, and here is the question.
READS QUESTION
All right. I also want to say the £1,000 question
is one of my other weaknesses. LAUGHTER
Erm... Elon Musk is SpaceX.
Jeff Bezos had a rocket thing around COVID time.
I don't think Mark Zuckerberg had any.
And I know Richard Branson has a Virgin space company.
I didn't know if he went onboard.
Virgin is Richard Branson. Let's not...
I don't think Jeff Bezos would have called his thing Virgin.
Right, B, final answer, Virgin Galactic.
But Richard Branson.
Yeah, I know what you meant,
and it's the right answer, and you're there.
You got £1,000, and that's the least you're going away with.
APPLAUSE
One of the things that slightly surprised me there, Mo,
is you're learning to fly. Yes.
I was just surprised if you were learning to fly
that you might've looked out of the window and gone...
"There's a Virgin Airways," yes. "Virgin..."
At the moment, I wouldn't recognise my own mother if she walked in.
LAUGHTER
Well, we're there. We're there now. Sorry, Mum!
And the other thing as well
that I was just genuinely staggered is your languages.
So, you're fluent, I mean, fluent,
in Arabic, Spanish, Italian, French, English,
and you're currently working on Russian?
Yes. Well, languages, if there's anything to do with language,
it looks like you're the man. We shall find out, though.
We shall find out indeed.
Would you like to set your safety net at £2,000?
No, I'd like to carry on, please. Good man. Here comes your question.
READS QUESTION
Erm, so, I'm sure about that one because I've eaten it,
and it's banana.
And it's funny cos the Spanish call banana platano,
which is plantain in Spanish,
and the Latin Americans call it ban...
but anyway, so if you go... if you want to buy a plantain in Spanish,
don't ask for it.
That's... OK, well, that just makes perfect sense (!)
It does, doesn't it? C, banana, final answer.
That's where your languages stood you in good stead.
I've got that out of the way.
APPLAUSE
If you want plantain in Spain, you don't ask for it. Gotcha.
Right, that's clear. So, safety net at 4,000?
No, keep going. Right, this is the question.
READS QUESTION
So... I mix these two up.
It's not Croatia, and it's not Hungary.
Hungary is Budapest, and Croatia, I can't remember it now,
but it's not Bucharest.
It's either Bulgaria, Romania... And I always mix them up.
Always. Always have.
I've been to Bulgaria.
Romania cannot be anything else but Bucharest.
Why am I doubting myself?
Bulgaria's Sofia. Romania, final answer.
Got there in the end. The right answer. Well done.
APPLAUSE
You're absolutely right, of course. Bulgaria is, er, Sofia.
Yes. Hungary is Budapest. Buda and Pest.
And Croatia is Zagreb. That's it. Well done.
No, it's just come up on the screen. KLAXON
Oh, no! MO EXHALES
Oh, no. That...
That signifies it's the end of the show, I'm afraid.
Erm, Mo, you'll be back next time to see
how far up the ladder of joy you can climb.
We'll also be back, joined by six brand-new contestants,
all hoping to become millionaires.
See you then. Good night.
APPLAUSE
