The Million Pound Drop (Series 3 Discussion Thread)

[Kerry]

I don't look at coins, just spend 'em :joker:

Mind you I liked all those that fitted together like a jigsaw a year or so ago....

[Matt]

Put my £1million on horse. Process of elimination - I remember a dragon coin, and Leek seems like one of those answers that's so random that it's not the right one :laugh:

Same with the Krays question, though (oddly) I knew about Les Mis

[Kerry]

Les Mis was easy but then again I'm older so saw the other two come out :)

[Kerry]

*Shrugs*

Seycelles

[GypsyGoth]

*Shrugs*

Seycelles

[Kerry]

Well don't blame me :joker:

[Kerry]

[Kerry]

[Jordan.]

Fighting on with £25,000, I thought it was Thailand. :laugh:

[Kerry]

Cliff

[GypsyGoth]

I guessed Cliff

[Matt]

No idea, guessing Cliff

[Kerry]

My heart was in my mouth then :shocked:

[Jordan.]

Oh dear I guessed Elvis, goodbye £25,000. :shocked:

[GypsyGoth]

Nooo!

[Kerry]

Mines a guess

[Kerry]

Edit - wrong

[Kerry]

Scrap that - I read the wrong list. Dunno the answer :joker:

[Jordan.]

Oh yay! :hugesmile:

[Kerry]

Yay! :D

[GypsyGoth]

Stupid Elvis :cloud:

[Matt]

Lost my original million now :(

Pleased though - another win! There's been quite a few now - hoping for another six-figure winner by the end of the series

[Jordan.]

Never seen it but Princess Tiaami isn't that Katie Prices' daughter? :laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

The caterpillar smokes the hookah.

[Matt]

LOL, Princess Tiaamii!

Up there with the best joke answers ever

[GypsyGoth]

They just threw away 150,000!

[Matt]

Not sure I like this celebrities asking questions thing

Lucie Cave was due to ask one too

[Kerry]

Man U 150%

[Jordan.]

Man Utd.

[Jordan.]

London!!!

[Matt]

London. This is an easy one

[Kerry]

Yeah London

[Kerry]

Phew!

[GypsyGoth]

I still have my million :D

[Kerry]

This is no good while trying to cook my tea. I keep sprinting back into the living room :joker:

[GypsyGoth]

I've never been in an ikea.

[Kerry]

Toss

[Matt]

TOSS

The sad thing is I actually know this :joker:

[Kerry]

I've never been in an ikea.

Me either

[Jordan.]

I had no idea but went with Toss.

[Matt]

Me either

What? But it's amazing! ;)

I thought this would be an IKEA-related question

[GypsyGoth]

I picked Toss cause y'all said it.

[Kerry]

I picked Toss cause y'all said it.

I just said it cos it sounded funny :D

[Matt]

I picked Toss cause y'all said it.

Good for you ;)

That was my finest hour tonight

[Kerry]

Hamsters

[GypsyGoth]

Good for you ;)

That was my finest hour tonight

:D

I picked hamsters.

[Matt]

Hamsters

That was my first thought, they're very cheap aren't they?

[Jordan.]

I went Rabbits. :(

[Kerry]

That was my first thought, they're very cheap aren't they?

Yes. Plus easy to keep indoors unlike rabbits

[Kerry]

:shocked: Thats surprised me

[Jordan.]

God im getting seriously lucky with these guesses :laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

Dumb Bunnies :cloud:

[Matt]

Yes. Plus easy to keep indoors unlike rabbits

Ouch, that was painful, especially after doing so well on the IKEA question :bawling:

New million for me

[Jordan.]

Im doing great with this £25,000. :amazed:

[Matt]

Im doing great with this £25,000. :amazed:

How long have you had that for now?

[Kerry]

Candle in the Wind

[Maia]

Candle In The Wind, knew that straight away.

[Jordan.]

How long have you had that for now?

I've survived 10 question so about 8 with the £25,000. :laugh:

[Matt]

Gawd, I put £750k on Bohemian Rhapsody - really not doing well now :laugh:

They're only easy if you know them I suppose

[GypsyGoth]

I thought they've always been here.

[Kerry]

I thought 50's - it's ancient

[Matt]

I've survived 10 question so about 8 with the £25,000. :laugh:

Ha, well done - imagine if that happened on the telly show!

Really wasn't sure about this one - kept moving money between the 60s and the 70s and ended up with my entire £250k on the 60s when the time ran out

[Jordan.]

I said 70's but think 50's now :sad:

[Kerry]

Wow, I thought it was much older than that

[Kerry]

Godzilla

[GypsyGoth]

I thiknk King Kong.

[Maia]

I think it's King Kong.

[Matt]

Goodness me, fourth million, after such a good start too!

Just stuck it on King Kong for a laugh - I couldn't care less now :laugh:

[Jordan.]

Pretty sure its King Kong

[GypsyGoth]

Yay!! I'm happy they won, I liked them!!

[Kerry]

Yaaaaaaaay :D

[Matt]

Brilliant result!

Three wins in a row this weekend, so it can't be THAT hard...

[GypsyGoth]

Brilliant result!

Three wins in a row this weekend, so it can't be THAT hard...

And that first couple who won over 200k weren't that smart :hugesmile:

[ILoveTRW]

This show is just so damn easy now, im actually considering applying, i think i could easily walk away with a million.

[Kerry]

10PM tonight

[Matt]

10PM tonight

Amazing ;)

Would be incredible if we got another win tonight

[Matt]

Starting NOW on Channel 4! :D:D

[Kerry]

[GypsyGoth]

[MTVN]

Looking forward to this tonight, want to keep my million the whole way through :D

[MTVN]

Ugh.. bodies :bored:

[Kerry]

Boxers Nose

[MTVN]

Im glad she knows, I didnt have a clue :laugh:

[Kerry]

Rhinoplasty is a nose job

[Matt]

Gone with her, although she seems right irritating :laugh:

[MTVN]

President

[Kerry]

President

[GypsyGoth]

He is a coward!!!!

[Matt]

He seems quite level headed, I reckon they'll win

[MTVN]

He is a coward!!!!

Mubarak or the guy on the show? :laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

I'm glad she doesn't listen to him :D

[GypsyGoth]

Mubarak or the guy on the show? :laugh:

:hugesmile: The guy on the show.

[MTVN]

:hugesmile: The guy on the show.

Oh right :D Yeah I'm glad she convinced them to put the full million on, it's stupid when they try really hard to play it safe and split on easy questions

[Kerry]

Marathons

[MTVN]

I'm surprised how confident she is actually

[GypsyGoth]

I hope she's right :bigsmile:

[Matt]

It's not the marathons. I remember reading about that. This is a really nasty question

[Kerry]

Cue break

[Kerry]

It's not the marathons. I remember reading about that. This is a really nasty question

What so he HAS run them? :shocked:

[MTVN]

It's not the marathons. I remember reading about that. This is a really nasty question

Yeah I've just wiki'd it, they're wrong :shocked:

[Kerry]

Oh me God :/

[GypsyGoth]

Awww :'(

[Matt]

And there was me thinking they'd win :laugh:

Her over-confidence was their downfall - it was too obvious an answer

[Kerry]

Ouchie

[GypsyGoth]

I had to start over with a million.

[MTVN]

Well my plan to keep my million didnt last long lol

[Kerry]

James Corden

[MTVN]

It's not about whos hosting Comic Relief though surely, it's about hosting the Brits

[Kerry]

Oh crap yes. It's Jonathan Ross then :shocked:

[GypsyGoth]

I went with James too.

[GypsyGoth]

Yes!!

[Matt]

Oh crap yes. It's Jonathan Ross then :shocked:

Right first time :p

[Kerry]

Oh bloody hell. Mind feck :joker:

[GypsyGoth]

Wow he got 50k for hosting the Brits.

[GypsyGoth]

Elizabethan

[MTVN]

Yeah, he's right

[Matt]

They need to be careful if they don't want to suffer a Micah and Joni-style fate

[Kerry]

LOL Davinas giggling

[Stacey.]

LOL Davina :love:

[GypsyGoth]

I hope it's Cock :laugh2:

[Kerry]

No idea. Guess Rooster

[Matt]

I love Davina <3

I hope she says "cock has dropped" during the results :laugh:

[Beastie]

Cock or Rooster?

[Beastie]

YAY they got it right :D

[MTVN]

That was brave of them, glad they were right :D

[MTVN]

Go for Eurovision :amazed:

[GypsyGoth]

Go for Eurovision :amazed:

I wanted that too :D

[Kerry]

Fiesta or Golf

Or Mini :laugh2:

[Beastie]

Ford Fiesta I am guessing. They are the cheapest. lol

[Matt]

Split - £600k on Fiesta, £400k on Golf

[GypsyGoth]

I don't know anything about cars.

[Beastie]

I put a million on Ford Fiesta.

[MTVN]

Ouch

[Beastie]

A break now I bet :(

[Beastie]

Oh no they were right :) and so was I ;)

[Kerry]

You'd think the statue

[Beastie]

I plopped my million on Zeus.

[MTVN]

Statue seems logical

[GypsyGoth]

You'd think the statue

I put my new million on that.

[Matt]

My £600k's on Zeus. I hope this is one of the obvious answers that actually turns out to be correct ;)

[MTVN]

I cant even have a million anymore, my internet's messing up and keeps closing the tab :laugh:

[Beastie]

Matt will blow it. I bet they do. Be sensible. GET ON THE PROPERTY LADDER! :hugesmile:

[Beastie]

Mark Zuckerberg?

[MTVN]

Mark Zuckerberg I think

[Kerry]

Zuckerberg

[Matt]

Mark Zuckerberg

The questions are quite easy now :/

[Beastie]

I am not keen on Facebook. However I still want to see that film, "The Social Network".

[MTVN]

I am not keen on Facebook. However I still want to see that film, "The Social Network".

It's a really good film, one of the best of 2010 I think

[GypsyGoth]

Yay! :D

[MTVN]

It could have been Julian Assange though tbf, dont they just go for those who've had the biggest impact on the world. They chose Hitler for it one year I think :laugh:

[Kerry]

Woooooo they're being brave

[Beastie]

It's a really good film, one of the best of 2010 I think

Ooo will have to take a gander at it! :)

[Beastie]

Birdseye??

[Kerry]

Trickyyyyyy

[MTVN]

Dont know this one :conf2:

[GypsyGoth]

I'd go with the captain.

[Kerry]

I think Tony is earlier

[MTVN]

Split between Ronald McDonald and Birdseye, I think Frosties would have come later

[Beastie]

I have put all my million on Birdseye. It's a guess. I think Tony the tiger and Ronald Mcdonald came later but I am probably wrong :(

[Matt]

In the spirit of tonight I've been brave and put my entire £600k on Tony, even though I've not got a clue :laugh:

[Kerry]

They had a MacD's question last week and that was about dates too

[Beastie]

Crap I'm wrong lol

[GypsyGoth]

I think I've lost 4 million so far tonight.

[MTVN]

I think I've lost 4 million so far tonight.

Well I'm never going on this show with you then :tongue:

[MTVN]

:sad:

[Kerry]

Pisser

[Beastie]

Aww they lost.

[GypsyGoth]

Well I'm never going on this show with you then :tongue:

:laugh:

[Kerry]

Oh Davina, you say you love everyone

[Beastie]

Kelly and Paul :love:

[Beastie]

When there is a celebrity couple, I would love there to be 2 ex housemates playing for charity :D Probably would be Josie and John James.. lol

[Kerry]

Gems, what colour is.......

[Kerry]

Sapphire

[Beastie]

I bet Paul wants to get Kelly on top of them drops. If you know what I mean ;) Sorry I just got this impression :hugesmile:

[Kerry]

I'm sure I saw a wad drop on the floor......

[Kerry]

Snarf

[Beastie]

snarf?

[Matt]

Snarf

Is that even an item of clothing?

[Kerry]

All the others are round the neck, 100%. Think they made snarf up lol

[Kerry]

Is that even an item of clothing?

If it is I've never heard of it :joker:

[GypsyGoth]

:D

[Kerry]

LOL snarf is one of the Thundercats

[Beastie]

Aww that's it now :(

[MTVN]

This show always seem to go so quickly, that was a good episode though :D

[Matt]

This show always seem to go so quickly, that was a good episode though :D

[Kerry]

9PM tonight

Wish they'd stick to one bloody time

[Matt]

9PM tonight

Wish they'd stick to one bloody time

At least it isn't 8.50pm again!

Just about to start

[Kerry]

I'm ready


Though ready for my tea.... I always get bloody hungry when this is on

[GypsyGoth]

Wooop!!!

[GypsyGoth]

I don't think they suit each other as a couple.

[Matt]

Glad they've gone with Teen Stars

[GypsyGoth]

Good question :D

[Kerry]

Cher

[Matt]

All my money's on Cher. Pretty sure she's 18 and the others are 16 or under

[Kerry]

Tom's the diver isn't he?

[Kerry]

I think he's only just 16

[Matt]

Tom's the diver isn't he?

Yep

Just realised I'm older than Cher Lloyd :o

[Kerry]

Yep

Just realised I'm older than Cher Lloyd :o

Don't worry. I turned 30 3 years ago :joker:

[GypsyGoth]

Bitchfield sounds like a cool place :D

[GypsyGoth]

Yep

Just realised I'm older than Cher Lloyd :o

And more talented :hugesmile:

[Matt]

Don't worry. I turned 30 3 years ago :joker:

Sorry about that :laugh:

And more talented :hugesmile:

I'm sure that's not hard to achieve!

I've actually driven through Wetwang

[Kerry]

Economy

[Matt]

Economy

Yep. It'd be a bit petty for Miliband to accuse the government of boring speeches - this is an obvious one

[Matt]

Trust them to go for the bloody sport question :mad:

[GypsyGoth]

I just put it all on Paula.

[Matt]

Easier than I thought it would be - I know Flintoff's quite tall so I assume it's Paula

[GypsyGoth]

Albert is not british, so maybe him.

[Kerry]

Oh I thought I'd seen Einstein. I know Forance has

[Matt]

Albert is not british, so maybe him.

That's what I think. Debating whether to gamble or split

[Kerry]

Luton

[Matt]

Initial thought on this one is Liverpool John Lennon airport since it seems the least likely option

[Kerry]

Luton serves London

[Matt]

Luton serves London

I know, I switched at the last minute. Have no idea - it was a choice between most obvious and least obvious and you never know which it is on the last question :laugh:

[Kerry]

Push the Button

[Matt]

Has there ever been an easier question? :joker:

[Matt]

Guessing cattle on this one - I've heard a bit about cows farting

[Kerry]

Cattle

[Kerry]

Mr Know it All

[GypsyGoth]

Mr Jelly maybe.

[Matt]

Mr Jelly!

Loved the Mr Men when I was younger

[Kerry]

:shocked:

[Judas]

OH MY GOD! That must of been awfull, just imagine it!

[Kerry]

Brogue

[Kerry]

Working as a lines woman

[Matt]

OH MY GOD! That must of been awfull, just imagine it!

I know. It must be gut-wrenching losing your grasp on all that (real) money :(

[Kerry]

Shoulder

[Matt]

Argh! I was switching between drops when the time ended... lost all my money :bawling:

It was so obvious too

[Kerry]

I don't read any mags :bawling:

[Matt]

I don't read any mags :bawling:

I read too many mags - none on the list though...

I've given up now anyway

[Kerry]

My OH used to read Mens Health. I can't remember it saying that anywhere

[Matt]

If it had been a question about gadget mags I'd probably have got it :laugh:

Not looking good for Harps and Avvy... and they've got a whole week to mull over what's happened

[GypsyGoth]

I think that would be a horrible wait.

[Kerry]

Bet it's been awful for that couple waiting a week. Then again, I bet they swatted up big time :D

[Matt]

Bet it's been awful for that couple waiting a week.

That must be a killer. Easy on the viewers, hard on the contestants :laugh:

[Matt]

Just saw the promo on Channel 4, I forgot Harps and Avvy only have £100k left to play with... not looking good for them

Tomorrow's show will feature celebrity players Bruno Tonioli and Pamela Stephenson (of Strictly Come Dancing fame), but it begins at another odd time of 9.10pm. Thanks for that, Channel 4 and your crazy schedulers :rolleyes:

[Kerry]

Looks like they're trying to start straight after the National Lottery

[Kerry]

Davina likes red

[GypsyGoth]

I think they might win 25,000.
