APPLAUSE

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much.

Hello, and welcome to Millionaire Hot Seat.

It's like pure concentrated Who Wants To Be A Millionaire juice.

No lifelines, no hesitating,

and five people waiting to jump into the chair

when someone makes a mess of things.

Let's meet tonight's players. They are...

Samantha Murray-Smith from Freshwater,

Genevieve Joule-Smith from Neston,

Claire Farley from Windsor,

Simon Williams from Notting Hill,

Billy Marsden from Greenwich

and Kevin Sheehan from Derry.

Good. Now, before the show, there was a random draw

to decide who goes in the Hot Seat first,

and the winner of that was...

Samantha Murray-Smith.

So, Samantha... help yourself to the chair.

APPLAUSE

Welcome. Welcome. Thank you.

You're Samantha Murray-Smith, a support worker... Yes.

..from Freshwater, wherever that is. Where is it?

The Isle of Wight. Yeah. Isle of Wight? Excellent.

Well, welcome, first of all.

15 questions to a million pounds,

same as it was in the old show, yeah?

But a couple of changes.

If you don't know the answer to a question, you can pass. OK.

If you do that, you go and sit over there,

and then the next contestant takes your place.

And that's the last time you can pass.

You've only got one pass. Use it once, it's over, OK? Got it.

If you answer and you get it wrong, two things happen.

Number one, the top rung of the ladder disappears.

The prize money shrinks.

And the second thing that happens is you go home.

So don't get anything wrong.

I'll try. OK? Let's get cracking, shall we?

Let's play Millionaire Hot Seat.

APPLAUSE

OK.

You've got 15 seconds to answer this question,

which is worth £100. OK.

Here we go.

READS QUESTION

Well, out of the four of those, the strongest is hurricane.

Final answer.

And the correct answer, so that's £100.

APPLAUSE

OK, for £200, this is your question.

READS QUESTION

Well, mince pies are eyes, boat race is face,

Loaf of bread is your head, plates of meat are your feet.

So it's plates of meat. Final answer.

Absolutely right, perfectly worked out. £200.

APPLAUSE

Right, this is for £300.

READS QUESTION

I'll be honest, I don't know this. I'm gonna pass.

Don't blame you. Perfectly sensible thing to do.

So, if you'd like to go and sit over there on the chair

and hope that you'll be back. We'll bring out the next contestant.

APPLAUSE

Welcome, Genevieve Joule-Smith. Hi.

Paediatric nurse from Neston. Yeah.

I don't know where that is either. Where's...?

That's in Cheshire, just outside of Chester.

Chester, OK. Well, you haven't come far.

That's one good thing if it goes wrong.

I'm sure it won't. LAUGHTER

Right, now, here's the rule, I'm afraid. It's not good.

Because Samantha passed, it means you can't. Mm-hm, yeah.

You have to answer this question, whether you like it or not. OK.

So, here it is.

REPEATS QUESTION

It's a choice of two, but given that Dwayne Johnson's famous

for, like, being fit and with a good physique and everything,

I'm going to choose MMA fighter. Final answer.

You a big MMA fighter fan?

Mmm... ish. I guess...

Oh, ish! Yeah.

I was expecting "no". LAUGHTER

Doesn't matter, though. You're right.

Correct answer. Well done. APPLAUSE

And what that means is your pass is now available.

You can now pass if you want to. Thank you.

So, here you go, £500 question.

READS QUESTION

Okie doke. I know the helix and the conch are both on the ears,

and the lobe is your ear as well, but you have a bridge on your nose.

I'm gonna say bridge. Final answer.

You are a nurse, which does help. Yeah.

And it's REALLY helped, cos that's the correct answer.

Well done. Well done.

APPLAUSE

Again, your pass is still available and this is the question for £1,000.

READS QUESTION

Hmm.

To be honest, I could hazard a guess,

but I don't want to at this stage, so I'm going to use my pass, please.

Absolutely fair enough. There you go.

Off to the end of the queue... Thank you.

..and let's bring out the next contestant, please.

APPLAUSE

Hello, hello. Hello.

Hello, Claire Farley. Yes.

Client engagement executive from Windsor.

Welcome to the hot seat. Thank you.

Now, you know the rules.

You can't pass on this question. You have to answer it, OK?

REPEATS QUESTION

This is the worst question for me,

because I'm the most unhealthy person ever,

so I've never eaten a Caesar salad. Eight seconds.

Er... Five seconds.

I'm gonna guess at...

Two seconds. ..anchovies, final answer.

A lot of chit-chat,

followed by, I'm afraid, the wrong answer.

I'm really sorry.

The correct answer is, in fact, feta cheese.

I'm afraid, we do now have to say goodbye to you.

So, ladies and gentlemen, Claire Farley.

Thank you. APPLAUSE

And if we could bring out our next contestant, please.

What a brutal game! This is so brutal.

Simon Williams, firefighter. That's right.

In Notting Hill, in London. That's right, yep.

I'd better be nice to you. I've got a flat in Notting Hill.

LAUGHTER And a daughter in Notting Hill.

Oh! So... Right.

The top rung of the ladder has now gone

cos that was a wrong answer.

This is 250,000, all right? OK.

Still a lot of money, and you're only ten questions away from it.

Right, this is the question for £1,000.

READS QUESTION

HE CHUCKLES

Well, I know which two it isn't.

Ten seconds.

I'm going to have to use my pass. Final answer.

Okey doke. OK.

Well, to the back of the queue with you.

We barely saw you. Blink, and you'd have missed you.

And let's bring out the next contestant, please.

APPLAUSE

Right.

Billy Marsden, actor. That's me.

From Greenwich in London. What have we seen you in?

I've just been a pig in Three Little Pigs.

Oh, I missed that. LAUGHTER

Sounds like you were one of the three leads, though.

Yeah, it was a great part. I was like a gym pig.

So, was like a stupid gym pig.

LAUGHTER

All right. Can gym pig work this one out?

You can't pass, I'm afraid. Yeah.

This is the question.

READS QUESTION

My first guess would be 2022, because...

purely because I think I've seen it in another quiz.

You've got five seconds. So I'm gonna lock in 2022.

I don't know what quiz you saw it in,

but it was incorrect. That's the wrong answer, I'm afraid.

So, I'm really sorry, gym pig.

It's every four years. A helpful way to remember -

the Summer Olympics are always in leap years.

Oh, right. You can bear that in mind on your way home.

Ladies and gentlemen, Billy Marsden. Thank you.

APPLAUSE

So, you're Kevin Sheehan, project manager from Derry. Yep.

I do know where Derry is, so that's good.

Right, now, I'm afraid to say that the top prize is £100,000 now.

OK. We've had two wrong answers.

Still six figures, though.

That's still a chunk of change.

Let's have a look at the question, shall we?

READS QUESTION

I haven't watched this show, unfortunately.

but I think...

it's Pam and Mick, final answer.

Just a guess?

Just a guess. It worked!

It's the right answer. Well done. Pam and Mick.

APPLAUSE

Well worked out. Well, well guessed.

And that means you're facing a £2,000 question.

And you now have 30 seconds to answer the question

cos it's harder.

Right, let's have look at the question.

READS QUESTION

I'm not sure on this one.

I have... thoughts, but I'm going to use my pass.

OK, off you go,

and let's bring out the next contestant.

Or I should say, bring back Samantha Murray-Smith.

Right, 30 seconds to answer the following question, Samantha.

REPEATS QUESTION

I actually have this book at home. It's Nigella Lawson, final answer.

And the correct answer. Well done, you see.

Was that your idea? It was.

Oh, I bet you're kicking yourself now.

Now, it's always a tricky one to know what to do there.

Do you try and help the next person along

or do keep shtum? Hard to know.

Anyway, that worked out, because you have the book.

Right, now, remember, you can't pass any more,

because you've used your pass.

This is the £3,000 question.

30 seconds to answer it. Let's have a look at it.

READS QUESTION

OK there's Iowa, Ohio, Utah...

Can't think of any more, so that's three.

Three, final answer.

Oof! You had 15 seconds to think more on that.

I know, but I thought I'd second-guess myself

and talk myself out of it.

And you were wise, because that is the correct answer.

Well done. Beautifully done. APPLAUSE

But now, I'm afraid it's time to take a break.

We'll be back in a few moments. See you then.

APPLAUSE

APPLAUSE

Welcome back to Millionaire Hot Seat.

I'm joined in the hot seat by Samantha,

who's on... £3,000.

This next question is worth £5,000. Remember, 30 seconds to answer it.

And you can't pass.

Here's the question.

READS QUESTION

OK, Rolex and Dulux definitely do.

Pandora or Hallmark.

I think... 15 seconds.

I don't think Pandora does.

Five seconds. Pandora, final answer.

Oh, I'm sorry, that's the wrong answer.

That's the wrong answer.

The correct answer is Dulux, and you were sure it wasn't.

I think it's Crown Paint... Crown Paint.

..have a crown. Oh, I'm sorry about that, Samantha,

but you must now go home.

Ladies and gentlemen, Samantha Murray-Smith.

APPLAUSE

If we can bring out... Genevieve, that would be lovely.

Welcome back, Genevieve. Thank you.

Now, remember, you left the action when we were on £1,000.

We're now on £3,000.

Top prize, £50,000. OK.

You've got 30 seconds to answer this question,

which is worth £5,000.

So, here we go.

READS QUESTION

Napa Valley's California, I believe, and Jerez is Spanish.

I think that's a Spanish for sherry, so they'd be northern.

Abruzzo sounds maybe Italian.

So, I don't actually really know,

but just for a guess, I'm gonna have to guess it - Mendoza.

Maybe it's, like, South American or something.

So I'd say... Ten seconds.

Oh, gosh.

Five seconds. Mendoza, final answer.

Pushed that close to the wire.

I second-guessed myself at the end then.

Shouldn't have done. That's the right answer. Well done.

APPLAUSE

Mendoza is in... somewhere called Argentina. OK.

Not an interesting place.

Abruzzo is Italy, Napa Valley, as you correctly say, is California,

and Jerez is Spain.

Good. Well, now, that's marvellous.

You've got the ladder up to 5,000. Well done.

This next question is worth £7,500.

READS QUESTION

The European Union flag, Olympic flag,

the United Nations flag or the rainbow Pride flag.

Oh, gosh.

I really wouldn't know, to be fair.

And I don't even really have anything to go on.

I mean, just looking at the date...

So, just looking at the date,

..I feel like I'm going to say... 15 seconds.

..the European Union flag, final answer.

No, I'm afraid not. Oh!

I'm afraid not.

No, the correct answer is the rainbow Pride flag. Oh, OK.

Was '78. So, I'm sorry about that,

but I'm afraid we must now say

to Genevieve Joule-Smith.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

Thank you for coming. APPLAUSE

OK, let's bring out...

..the firefighter again, Simon Williams.

Welcome back. Thank you.

I should just explain to the ladies and gentlemen at home,

the Olympic flag was first used in the 1910s, UN flag in the 1940s,

the current EU flag was used by the Council of Europe

from the 1950s. I didn't know that.

I thought it was newer than that. Oh, well, there we are.

Anyway, that's of no concern of yours or indeed yours.

Top prize now, £20,000.

You've got 30 seconds to answer this question.

You can't pass.

Shall we have look at it?

Yes, please. £7,500 riding on it. Let's go.

READS QUESTION

OK, so I haven't got a clue.

I can't even pronounce some of them.

It's gonna have to be a total guess. I can't even work it out.

I'm gonna go for indefatigable.

Final answer.

And the correct answer.

APPLAUSE Let's be honest...

it's what firefighters have to be.

Indefatigable. OK.

So that you don't get tired going up all those stairs.

Indubitable is... unable to be doubted.

Innominable is unable to be named.

And ineluctable is not able to be avoided.

OK.

You have now just won £7,500. This next question is worth £10,000.

OK. Let's have look at it.

READS QUESTION

I know C, definitely...

..because that's Boris Johnson.

A, Scotland somewhere,

D...

OK, on the basis of working it out...

Ten seconds. ..I'm gonna go for...

Epping Forest, final answer.

That's not what I'd have gone for.

But you were right. Well done.

APPLAUSE You were absolutely right.

I actually thought it was Holborn and St Pancras.

Oh, well, that's why I got it wrong. It's Keir Starmer's.

Yeah, Uxbridge, as you quite rightly say, is Boris Johnson

and Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath is Gordon Brown.

So, yeah, well done, you. That's fantastic.

And now, what that means is bad news for Kevin,

because whatever happens now,

I'm afraid you won't be getting back in the hot seat.

Could be good news for you, though. Could be good news for you, Simon.

Here's how it works. This is the final question.

If you get it right, £20,000 is yours. OK.

If you get it wrong, because we're generous souls,

we'll give you £1,000 as a consolation prize. Thank you.

So it's £20,000 or £1,000 riding on this question. OK.

45 seconds now to answer it. Right.

You can't pass. Let's have a look.

READS QUESTION

OK, so Ellen Ripley was definitely Aliens, Sigourney Weaver.

Hannibal Lecter...

I've never heard of B or C.

"Which of these characters has not appeared in a film...?"

"Not appeared in a film..."

OK.

She definitely has.

20 seconds. He has.

It's gonna have to be a total guess.

One in three, by the sounds of it. Yeah.

I'm going to say, Paul Atreides. Final answer.

You've just won £20,000! Oh-ho-ho!

APPLAUSE

Nice work!

On a total guess.

I can't believe it! On a total guess.

That's fantastic news.

Now, if my house catches fire... LAUGHTER

..I want you round in a jiffy, all right?

Definitely. Yeah.

Let's have a look. Paul Atreides was...

Well, he's from the Dune films, which Ridley Scott didn't do. Yeah.

Lecter, obviously, was in Scott's adaptation of Hannibal.

Deckard was in Blade Runner

and Ripley, as you said, is from Alien.

But you're not listening to any of that,

You're thinking how you're gonna spend 20 grand!

How are you gonna spend it?

I'd probably... My daughter, a trip to New York,

and my son, a Manchester United season ticket.

That's a fantastic brace of prizes.

Oh, and my girlfriend a trip to the Maldives. Sorry.

LAUGHTER

Well, you have fun, your son will have fun at Man U,

your daughter have fun in New York, and you have fun in the Maldives.

Right, ladies and gentlemen - Simon Williams, our winner tonight.

APPLAUSE

And join me next time, when six new players will be here,

all hoping to win a million pounds. See you then.

Well done, mate.

APPLAUSE
