.. its a show people either love or hate. I dont watch it unless im visiting my grandparents, but it causes so many arguements between my grandparents.
Would you know when to stop? or would you go along with the attitude 'i came with nothing, id go home with nothing?'. Ive often thought if i had an offer of £17,000 id leave no matter what.. but sometimes the boards look soooo tempting.
I find the show gripping and frustrating in equal measures. If you were a contestant, how would you play it? |

its a great programme.
we look at it one way,if it got to £15,000 its time to deal.
can you imaging somone just giving that to you in the street, then saying or you can gamble , you would take the money |

If I was a contestant, I'd hang myself...because they only let annoying knobs on that show via auditions, so if I was on it, it'd be confirmed that I'm an annoying knob. |

I remember some comedian saying why doesn't somebody just take what's in the box right at the start and save all the faffing around. You're probably just as likely to get a decent amount. |

o0o0o well i dont know about that, perhaps the person who controls the board graphics is the independant adjudicator person and therefore he/she knew what was in the box..

"i watched it once and he said to the contestant when your name came up to play earlier today?? and dont tell me the families just happen to be there on the day x "
They film several shows in a day, otherwise people would have to give up their jobs just to play. its about 22 games ish before its the selected players turn, so you have an idea when to bring the family to bristol. the families are there for about 3 or 4 games i believe but arent always filmed in the audience. |

Is Maury still going? Remember when he was on the living channel. |

The best quote I have heard about the show was from my mother
"It's wonderful, you don't have to be intelligent to win some money unlike those boring quiz shows" Sums the show up really.
On a plus point it is a wonderful example of how TV can stretch a 2-3 minute activity into a full hour of "entertainment".
In short .... annoys the fuck out of me |
