    I guess it’ll always be back eventually? I’m right in thinking it comes and goes aren’t I?

    Is next Friday the last day?
    No Thursday, Ken Bruce said today was the last Friday. I would guess at it going up £5,000 a day so 200K by Thursday ans a definate winner

    That's been my expectation for the last couple of weeks.

    Sometimes they have a huge prize after the make me a winner last day. So for example if Thursday is indeed £200k, they might have a Friday game for £250k where all you have to do is answer the phone. No "within 5 rings" or "make me a winner". Just answer and speak. Guaranteed giveaway so if it goes to voicemail or gets rejected or unanswered they ring another person 

    Or... A week long entry period for a big prize, again just answer and speak..

    Hi guys! This will have been answered before but I can’t find it. Just wondering are the numbers still free to do entries? I tried 0330 880 4541 but worried about being charged!
    If you have minutes included in your contract bundle, the calls to 0330 number will usually be included so you wouldn't be charged any extra. If you don't have a contract (pay as you go etc), then the calls would be chargeable.
    I'm on payg with giffgaff on a goodybag and 0330 numbers are included and are the same as 01 and 02 numbers. I presume will be the same for a lot of payg.

    Christ i feel sorry for those two callers, thats a horrible miss
  • Sooo I got a call from a +44 121 number at 3:49PM, that I didn’t see. I let my guard down because I saw from this forum they tend to call around 3:10 ish. I figured they wouldn’t call this late, because that would be literally live. Can’t call the number back, ‘Number is unrecognised’

    Can’t but worry I’ve missed out!
