Miriam - 30.03.2002

[Mark]

Hello and welcome to our weekly edition of Who wants to be a BB millionaire...

This weeks contestant is Miriam, before we start I will remind you of the rules.

The Quizmaster will ask each question and will then wait for the contestant to post the answer. We would appreciate it if nobody other than the contestant posts onto the thread unless they have been asked to be an ‘Ask a Friend’. Any random posts will be immediately deleted.

Each Contestant has three lifelines:

1 ‘Ask a Friend’, where you can choose one person currently online to help you. Once they have been nominated the ‘friend’ should post what he or she thinks is the answer. Admin cannot be nominated as ‘Friends’.

2. ‘50:50’, where 2 wrong answers will be removed.

3. ‘Ask for a Clue’, where, as you cannot ask the audience, you can ask us for a clue.

We cannot tell what you are doing, but we ask you to behave fairly and not look all the answers up in the book or to cheat in any other way.

As usual, I’ll give you a couple of minutes to read this and then we’ll start.

How are you feeling Miriam??
