The Million Pound Drop Series 5

[Matt]

The Million Pound Drop is back in September :D

Channel 4 is yet to confirm the exact date, but tickets are being offered for the 2nd, 3rd, 9th and 10th, so it looks like it'll air on Fridays and Saturdays again

[CharlieO]

I wonder if they will purposefully clash it with BB. Davina will miss a couple of episodes.

They'll probably move it to 9pm on Fridays so it goes up against eviction shows :(

As much as I love BB I'll be sticking with the Million Pound Drop - if you don't watch live you can't play along

Channel 4 has confirmed the new series begins September 2nd at 9.00pm, directly against Big Brother evictions. MPD runs for thirty minutes longer though.

So, MPD crew, what are your plans - are you planning to stick with it or are you a BB loyalist?

[Kerry]

Just seen it advertised

I think I'll record it :shocked:

[Joelle.]

Million Pound Drop >>> All other gameshows

I love MPD and will be watching it instead of the evictions but I don't think I could miss the launch show

New series starts tonight at 9pm!

[Jarrod]

I'll watch on Plus 1.

[Matt]

Anyone watching tonight?

[Tom]

Look at what Channel 5 are missing out on :lovedup:

[Maia]

Will probably watch the last half hour. But for now, Big Brother >

[Jordan.]

-grieves for Davina-

I bet she wishes she was doing BB over this.

Ah yes I do miss Davina.

[Tom]

Rubbish

Channel 4 HD > Channel 5 HD

[Jordan.]

I've switched on too, is it just me or does Davina seem really uninterested :suspect:

[CharlieO]

I am so glad Davina isn't doing BB. But I love her <3

[Matt]

Look at what Channel 5 are missing out on :lovedup:

she even has a black dress on!

She's looking amazing :lovedup:

I lost £925,000 on the world records question :bawling:

[Tom]

Wow, in the adverts just put Big Brother on for the first time in 2 weeks, tuned in and the eviction announcement was on. Its so drawn out, definitely making the right decision not to watch

[GypsyGoth]

I think women.

[Tom]

Cheryl :lovedup:

She has the good Irish accent too...

[Shaun]

[Ramsay]

[Shaun]

[CharlieO]

I love Dav Dav. :lovedup:

[Maia]

Either Hollyoaks or The Bill

[Tom]

Proposal at the top of Nemesis, definitely going to go one better and do it at the top of Oblivion or when 13 goes into that room before the drop

[Ramsay]

not if you've never seen the Kardashians and only know of Kim :laugh:

I've never watched the Kardashians and only know of Kim its just from process of elimination
and ah another easy question
I should really watch this show more only seen it like once before this ahaha

[Marc]

Oh hai Davina I love you long time

[Marc]

Whut was the question?

[Kerry]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay the Sheffield lads won 100k :dance:

[Matt]

Felt so sorry for Andy & Jo, they took it well though

Do they really think someone from The Only Way Is Essex cares about the FTSE :laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

true :D

[Matt]

Question about Channel 4's history with no mention of Big Brother :bored:

The Katie Price question was too easy

[Kerry]

Watching on +1

Poor Jo and Andy :(

[Kerry]

Question about Channel 4's history with no mention of Big Brother :bored:

The Katie Price question was too easy

Just heard that one. Way too easy

[CharlieO]

I watched earlier. Was good.

[Kerry]

Pisser. That couple at the end

[Joelle.]

This was the most I've enjoyed MPD in a while, even though most of the questions were patronisingly simple. :laugh:

Glad Davina is back on our screens as well. :love:

[Matt]

On again in five, anybody watching?

[Ramsay]

Davina :lovedup:

[Marc]

Hey Davina... CHANNEL5 needs ya xox

[Marc]

Idiots :bored:

[Matt]

Idiots :bored:

After such a promising start too :bored:

[arista]

[Ramsay]

[Matt]

No, but MPD requires knowledge

That said, the million has been won on the German version

[Matt]

For those of you not watching, tonight's show had the biggest winners to date - Nick and Katie took home £250,000

Just seen it :amazed:

[Matt]

Just seen it :amazed:

Was pleased for them, and good on them for doing something to counter the Essex stereotype!

Back tonight at 9pm - and next weekend, Jack Whitehall and his dad will be playing for charity

[Matt]

Another record win tonight - Jack and his dad scooped £300,000

[Joelle.]

It was fantastic this weekend, Mr Whitehall was hilarious without even trying. :laugh:

[Matt]

Series ended tonight - it was the best yet. £1.4million given away in total, that's more than all previous series combined!

Back in December for more Christmas specials when it won't have Big Brother to clash with - I reckon we should discuss those here seeing as this thread has gone pretty much ignored compared to the older ones :p

Because no one on TiBB has even watched it, and rightly so - they can ****** off, running against BB.

TiBB might not have been watching it but everyone else has - of the 10 times that BB and MPD have clashed, MPD has won in the ratings 8 times ;)

[Joelle.]

It was blatant they were stringing it out in the last 20 mins (as if they didnt enough already) so they didnt have to bring on more contestants. Davina has never talked to the players for so long between questions. :laugh:

[Jarrod]

I love the MPD. But BB goes first.

[Matt]

Back on Monday 5th December for Christmas specials, airing daily at 10.00pm until Friday 9th!

Also, to mark their 30th anniversary, Channel 4 is airing a special day of programming in January which sees their talent switching jobs - as part of this, there will be a Million Pound Drop special in which Davina becomes the contestant, hosted by Phil Spencer from Location Location Location. Should be fun :D
