I sat in the hot seat in front of Chris Tarrant in December 2001, and I can
tell you that WWTBAM is a lot harder than it looks! Questions that would be
a breeze at home become inexplicably difficult when you're sitting under
blazing lights in a studio, with hundreds of people staring at you,
shuffling and coughing. It costs 1 to enter the WWTBAM draw, which rakes in
an annual profit of millions of pounds for production company Celador.
Although millions of people have called the WWTBAM hotline, only four people
have won the million in the UK, so it's a tough challenge.

I take it that you achieved .... zilch?

According to :

>I take it that you achieved .... zilch?


I read the same article Mike is, I think, quoting from - the person who
wrote it, iirc, said he panicked on the 8k question and used all his
lifelines, then because he was flustered, answered the 16k one incorrectly,
despite knowing it, and left with 1k.
