All New Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

Thought i was watching Parkinson. Chris was interviewing the contestants after every question. I thought this clock was meant to speed the show up. His waffle is slowing it right down again.
 
If the phone a friend people were in the studio then they would be filmed I would have thought then shown as a split screen between them and the contestant. I suspect they are at home. I don't think it would be that easy to listen to the question and then try to google it in 30 secs and then give an answer.
 
Geez these are hard questions for the first rounRAB i think. Who on earth knows where Boris Johnson was born . i think the audience must have just guessed the sculpture question unless i'm thick! Also that website question GOOP. Never heard of it in my life. I must get out more or watch more news.
 
does anyone know by the way- does every audience member have to vote, even if they don't know the answer?I've always pondered about that...

I mean, there's been some right daft answers over the years...
 
I think the questions are getting harder. Who on earth knows who Robert Harris' relation is. Might as well ask who mine is. They are never gonna win owt at this rate.Mind you i thought Steven Gerrard was the england capt. Didnt he captain them in the world cup
 
My mum watched this, she didn't like the new format at all, she thought it was rather daft going against the clock. Think it's getting a bit stale though. I used to love it but I just find it boring now, its had its day IMO.
 
Can anyone who's been on WWTBAM tell me whether, if you're playing your Phone a Friend lifeline and you've already used Ask the Audience on the same question, you're allowed to tell your PAF what percentages the various possible answers have scored? I'd assume not as I don't recall seeing anyone do so.

I'm just wondering because if I'd been on the other night and had the Maundy money question, I might have been tempted to say "Silver" got the highest (particularly as I thought the answer was gold :o), if only to nudge the PAF's thought process a little and give them some sort of starting point to mull it over.

Not that it's necessarily going to be of use with all questions, since as we know the audience can of course be completely wrong :)
 
I remember The Vault. I'm not sure the prize money was a million though....The silly thing about that programme was that contestants could rattle out multiple guesses to a question and Mel just had to hear the right answer. This meant if it was number-related they'd often just count "1,2,3,4,5,...." really quickly until they said the right one!
