Have a codec?

How does the British version work? Our case-openers are models, and
Round 1: Open 6
Round 2: Open 5
Round 3: Open 4
Round 4: Open 3
Round 5: Open 2
Round 6: Open 1
Round 7: Open 1
(etc)

Ours goes from $0.01 - $1,000,000
Roughly: 0.0056 pounds - 564,781.0102 pounds

It just won't play with media player or torrent either.

Haven'e a clue why.
Go to the isohunt link and click the file you want, then click 'Download .torrent' and when then file requester box comes up click Open instead of Save.

The bit torrent program you installed should start up and ask you to save the video file. When you've done that the video file should start downloading (maybe slowly at first).

It will probably take several hours to download, depending on how fast your net connection is (probably not worth it if you don't have broadband). If it is too slow, or doesn't start downloading at all, stop it and try another file.

Once you've got the video file you'll need to install this - http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/ - on your computer to view it.

In our one the cases are boxes and they are opened by future contestants.

They select one person at the beginning of each show to play, and the show is on six days a week instead of once a week with the US show? There are 22 boxes.

It really is a well produced show- I love it.

It all depends on the contestants though- they make or break the show. Although I didnt like John today, they are usually good people who I want to win.

last night we had a girl who was a special education teacher and she didn't make much money. She would've gone away with $18,000...but her co-workers and her husband kept pushing her. She wanted to get at least $80,000 by then, and in the end she got $147,000 when there was $5 in her box.

I liked John at the beginning but by the end he annoyed me.

I thought Julia played a good game yesterday, she didn't go away with the most money but she done pretty well.

I love Pat, the old Irish woman.

^Youre genuinely missing out!

As for Pat, I think shes gonna be pretty annoying.

Id love to do this show, but on the website it says they are not taking any applications just yet.
