    Good luck!
  • If you're going for the 50/50 lifeline then don't reveal which ones you're not sure about if Chris asks. I've seen it happen so often where the 50/50 goes on to be as unhelpful as possible based on what the contestant has revealed they know.:rolleyes:
    Best of luck :D

    Don't be greedy!! As a MSE expert you're well aware of the value of money. However, some celebs, when they have no idea of the answer, just want to get that million and just guess; even when they have a decent figure and their charity will benefit..........and..............they go home with £1k.

    On the flip side, if you do guess and mess it up, tell the viewers you will make up the difference from your own pocket!!!

    Good luck!!!

    As I say in the blog - we're going to be conservative up to £50,000 and if we're lucky enough to get that in the bag - then we're going to try and go for it

    I'd be more concerned if you get any music questions than the currency in wherever?

    Good luck to you both!

    Good luck!
    But for one of your phone-a-friends, you need someone who is sitting there with Google ready and waiting, and who can look something up in less than 10 or so seconds!! All the best!
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.
