The Million Pound Drop - Christmas Week

[Kerry]

Starts tonight on C4 at 10PM :spin:

[Matt]

Starting now - the first players are comedian Micky Flanagan and his nephew Mike

[GypsyGoth]

Yay! i was looking for something to watch.

[GypsyGoth]

archway

[GypsyGoth]

has to be stace.

[Matt]

I've split between group hug and Christmas cracker

[GypsyGoth]

So you win either way :D

[MTVN]

Ohh I'd forgotten, gonna start playing now :D

[Matt]

Apparently you can play against other viewers online now - we should organise a TiBB game ;)

[MTVN]

They put it all on that? That was brave

[MTVN]

That's tricky, I've split 3 ways leaving out touching celeb handprints

Edit - mind you I suppose the handprints on being stepped over all the time so it might have quite a lot of germs

[Matt]

I put the majority on handprints with a little bit on pigeon...

[MTVN]

Only 1 question inbetween adverts :cloud:

[GypsyGoth]

I would have thought the hand prints cause people walk on them.

[Matt]

I would have thought the hand prints cause people walk on them.

That was my logic, but clearly it was flawed

[MTVN]

His nephew seems very awkward

[MTVN]

Must be the Turner Prize

[GypsyGoth]

That was my logic, but clearly it was flawed

I heard saliva kills germs as well. I wonder if they tested the objects or just guessed.

His nephew seems very awkward

I bet it's his first time on tv.

[GypsyGoth]

dolphin.

[Callum]

Shared mine between Dolphin and Orangutan

[Matt]

My second million's all on Dolphin

[MTVN]

Aw had to go get my washing out and lost my last £450k, I'd guess it's dolphin though

[Callum]

Yes :D

[GypsyGoth]

Matt Damon is private ryan.

[MTVN]

Don't think he plays it in Saving Private Ryan

[Callum]

Santa :bawling:

[Callum]

Put all on Des

[MTVN]

Know nothing about either of them :shrug:

[GypsyGoth]

I don't know. i'll guess Sinead.

[Jords]

Sinead is a HO character *_*

[MTVN]

My clock suddenly ran out of time 30 seconds earlier than theirs :suspect:

[Locke.]

They have got it right I think

[Callum]

Argh!

[Matt]

I'm thinking it's Des too

[Callum]

:amazed:

[GypsyGoth]

Yay! I'm happy they won and that I was wrong.

[Locke.]

This girl deserves the £1 million

[MTVN]

Yeah she's got it right I think

[Callum]

All on Christine and Adrian

[GypsyGoth]

This girl deserves the £1 million

:laugh:

[MTVN]

I think it's either Ghostbusters or Star Wars, Harrison Ford got his Indiana Jones role off the back of Star Wars I think

[Kerry]

I loved Davinas dress :love:

[Kerry]

It's from Topshop [/twittertattle]

Wow. She looked lovely :)

[MTVN]

On again in 5 minutes :bouncy:

[GypsyGoth]

:amazed:

[MTVN]

Must be the portrait

[Matt]

If I remember rightly Australia's the answer to this one

[MTVN]

Lost my million on the first question :bored: can't believe she's been there 16 times in one year though

[GypsyGoth]

If they were braver, they'd be richer.

[GypsyGoth]

Lost my million on the first question :bored: can't believe she's been there 16 times in one year though

It was her sixteenth time there this year, the other fifteen times were different years.

[GypsyGoth]

:laugh2: @ smellie cock

[MTVN]

It was her sixteenth time there this year, the other fifteen times were different years.

Oohhh now it makes sense http://i599.photobucket.com/albums/tt71/Pittsburghistan/omg.gif

[GypsyGoth]

Yay for cock!

[Matt]

It was her sixteenth time there this year, the other fifteen times were different years.

Dunno why there's so much confusion, the question wasn't *that* hard to understand :laugh:

I lost £825,000 on that names question

[MTVN]

It was a very complicated question :hmph:

[GypsyGoth]

:laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

Amstrad?

[Matt]

I've never heard of anyone going on a TV quiz show to win money for a poker tournament before :laugh:

[MTVN]

Alan Sugar I'd guess

[Matt]

Alan Sugar I'd guess

I'm gambling all my money on him

[MTVN]

That poker tournament he wants to enter is huge, the winner gets about £8/9m from it

[MTVN]

I've just checked and I didn't realise there was only 3 years age difference between Sugar and Branson, I though Sugar was way older

[Locke.]

How much did the fit girl and her boyfriend win that were on at the end of last nights? Haven't been able to watch tonight

[GypsyGoth]

They are still playing, they have £75,000 left and now they have a famous sportsmen question.

[MTVN]

I think Gerrard

[MTVN]

Frank is a fat bastard :idc:

[MTVN]

Just gotta be a complete guess really, I'm going with hate it :suspect:

[GypsyGoth]

Nooo, stupid ads :cloud:

[JobsForTheBoys]

Why are all the contestants young and good looking?:conf:

[MTVN]

There's West Virginia, so it's East

[Jords]

That DKNY advert!!! Anybody know the song?

[MTVN]

Was reading that the Olympics is gonna cost more than was expected so it's probably that

[MTVN]

I would have thought it between the Louvre & the Tate Modern, surprised they left it clear

[GypsyGoth]

I've been to the Louvre twice and the room with the mona lisa is insane, it's a big room and it's crazy packed.

[GypsyGoth]

Indiana Jones.

[MTVN]

I went there on a French exchange when I was 13 but the queue was so big & it was so packed we never even went in :laugh:

And yeah pretty sure it's Indiana Jones

[Kerry]

Love how the wasp upstaged the lot of them :laugh:

[Matt]

Show three's on now, anyone playing along? :D

[GypsyGoth]

Oh yay, I forgot this was on.

[GypsyGoth]

You can see france from dover, so it must be swimming the channel.

[Callum]

I put all mine on English channel

[Matt]

I didn't think there - lost all my money on the second question :bored:

[GypsyGoth]

Maybe the gallaghers.

[MTVN]

I've guessed the Gallaghers

[Matt]

Maybe the gallaghers.

Maybe the Milibands!

...but seriously I've gone with Gallaghers

[GypsyGoth]

after the break.

[GypsyGoth]

Yay! :dance:

[MTVN]

Glad they won :D

[Matt]

They were great players :)

[Callum]

Obviously environment, these people haven't read the question properly.

[MTVN]

I had my million on the environment thinking it was referring to some charity thing he did but now I've just copied them :laugh:

[Matt]

Could they make that question any easier?

[Marsh.]

How stupid. Friends with Benefits? Are they listening to the question?

[GypsyGoth]

:shocked: :shocked:!!!

[Callum]

They are both dumb for not reading the question properly

[GypsyGoth]

They looked like brother & sister anyway :suspect:

[MTVN]

Oh my God :shocked: I thought it must have been environment but they were so sure, I presumed the plot of the film had him trying to protect the concept of having friends with benefits or something :conf2:

[Tom]

Losing £1m on the first question :laugh3:

[Matt]

They don't deserve that mini-break :laugh:

[MTVN]

It must be so humiliating to do that, imagine how sh*t you'd feel, I would be pissed off if I was the guy as well :laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

I hope it happens again :amazed:

[Callum]

All on Arthur Christmas

[MTVN]

I'm not sure it is Arthur Christmas :S

[Callum]

Damn :bawling:

[GypsyGoth]

noooo way :laugh2:

[MTVN]

!!!!

[Tom]

Twice in one show, absolutely hilarious

[Callum]

LOL though at yet another couple falling at the first question :laugh:

[GypsyGoth]

Lets hope for three in a row :D

[Matt]

I hope it happens again :amazed:

It actually did! You must be psychic :shocked:

[GypsyGoth]

It actually did! You must be psychic :shocked:

:laugh:

[MTVN]

Great episode tonight, first players get a big win then the next two go out on the first question :D

[Tom]

Lets hope for three in a row :D

I hope your psychic powers work again

[Callum]

What an easy question

[GypsyGoth]

:laugh: I don't think they could have had an easier question.

[MTVN]

Tbf the last couples question was a lot harder than one like this

[MTVN]

Man Utd and Man City

[Matt]

Tbf the last couples question was a lot harder than one like this

Not really - they knew Final Destination was rated 18 so surely they'd also know it was a horror film, which is far more likely to scare children than Arthur bloody Christmas

[MTVN]

Not really - they knew Final Destination was rated 18 so surely they'd also know it was a horror film, which is far more likely to scare children than Arthur bloody Christmas

Yeah but I wouldn't even know which of those films was due to be released soon never mind the age certificates of them, I suppose you're right though that if they had known it was an 18 and coming out soon they should have got it

[Matt]

Yeah but I wouldn't even know which of those films was due to be released soon never mind the age certificates of them, I suppose you're right though that if they had known it was an 18 and coming out soon they should have got it

It's already out, the posters in question ran in August :/

[GypsyGoth]

I don;t know.

[Callum]

Split between Lethal Weapon and Simple Minds

[MTVN]

It's already out, the posters in question ran in August :/

Oh right, I wouldn't have thought they'd be banning the poster only now of a film that was out 4 months ago :laugh:

[Callum]

All on Monaco

[MTVN]

Monaco I think, put a tiny bit on Loch Ness as well

[Callum]

I'm crap at this tonight :bawling:

[GypsyGoth]

Monaco is tiny :shocked:

[MTVN]

Didn't realise Monaco was so small

[Matt]

The answer to this question certainly isn't the Million Pound Drop!

[MTVN]

Split between the London Eye and the train

[Callum]

Put all on London eye :D

[Marsh.]

What's this with George Lamb every night? The show doesn't start for another month, is he just waiting in that vault until January? lol

[Matt]

What's this with George Lamb every night? The show doesn't start for another month, is he just waiting in that vault until January? lol

Just cross-promotion - both shows are made by the same producers - but annoying cross-promotion nonetheless

George bloody Lamb :bored:

[Marsh.]

Just cross-promotion - both shows are made by the same producers - but annoying cross-promotion nonetheless

George bloody Lamb :bored:

Makes sense, I just find it odd that he's there live every night for just 10 seconds and the show doesn't begin until January. Wonder how much he gets for that, lol.

I presumed it was pre-recorded adverts but he spoke specifically about the show tonight.

[Kerry]

What's with all the wasps? :joker:

I seriously can't believe the Friends with Benefits couple. Nevermind the next two :laugh2:

[GypsyGoth]

on now :amazed:

[GypsyGoth]

The tunnel.

[MTVN]

:amazed:

I think it might actually be Wembley :suspect:

[Callum]

I put most on Channel Tunnel and a couple on Wembley

[MTVN]

Oh I was just a bit wrong then :laugh:

[MTVN]

Makes sense that it'd be the relay that's quicker

Actually maybe not because you have to allow time for changing the baton and stuff

[GypsyGoth]

I hope they right.

[Locke.]

That is a really hard question.

I would have probably gone for the 400 meters to be honest, but hopefully they are right

[Callum]

Yes!!!!

[Callum]

Easy question

[Locke.]

Could they have found an easier question to ask

[Tom]

As if she really just contemplated putting something on smoke alarms running out of batteries? won't most schools have electric ones anyway, and would be a strange coincidence if they all ran out on the same day

[GypsyGoth]

mexico?

[MTVN]

Yeah Mexico

[Callum]

Most on Mexico, some on India.

[Locke.]

This girl is an idiot. I hope they lose it all and quick

[Matt]

Is Shelley being serious? Tabasco a state of the USA? :bored:

[MTVN]

This is England 88 :amazed:

[Callum]

Ann Widdecombe :laugh:

[MTVN]

What the hell's she doing there :suspect:

[MTVN]

Gary Barlow I'm going for

[Callum]

All on Gary

[Callum]

:bawling:

[GypsyGoth]

I hope they know the next few answers.

[MTVN]

That was a good move ignoring her :laugh:

[MTVN]

Maradona I think?

[GypsyGoth]

[MTVN]

Oh must be Stuart Pearce then, the Ronaldo thing was in the Euros

Edit - never mind no it wasn't, I should stop pretending I know these things

[Callum]

shoulda picked pirates.

Agreed

[Callum]

Designer I'm guessing :conf2:

[MTVN]

She wouldn't put brain surgeon as a joke I doubt :suspect:

[GypsyGoth]

Stick insect.

[MTVN]

[GypsyGoth]

[MTVN]

[Callum]

[GypsyGoth]

I hope these two do well.

[Callum]

Every night he's on :bored:

[GypsyGoth]

Him and his wank job.

[Marsh.]

I'm actually surprised. The Bank Job is good, I'm addicted. I declined the option to apply for the show though, just entered the draw lol.

Pity Lanky Lamb is presenting.

[Maia]

Loved yesterdays episode with the two set of contestants in a row losing at the first question :joker:

[Kerry]

Kinda felt sorry for Steve and Shelly. Though Steve was a knob

[Kerry]

Loved yesterdays episode with the two set of contestants in a row losing at the first question :joker:

[Matt]

I've gone with physicals - 12" sales have been the highest in ages this year, and the majority of digital purchases are single tracks

[Callum]

Poor girls

[GypsyGoth]

I like that the losers get a gift now.

[Callum]

[Matt]
