It was car crash televison, leaving a lot of people around the country feeling very sorry for you - not that you will want anyone to feel sorry for you.<BR/><BR/>You didn't deserve what happened; when people talk about life changing amounts of money, they probably don't have £20 in mind.<BR/><BR/>How is the weather up there? I was brought up on the Black Isle, but have worked in the far south for many years now.Gilleanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12492995359306742124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23369592.post-1142510642462310042006-03-16T12:04:00.000+00:002006-03-16T12:04:00.000+00:00Another good way to win is to play an oppenent who...Another good way to win is to play an oppenent who has not been asleep for 32 hours. You analysis of my box selection is written with hindsight.

If the...Yes, considered early on and soon rejected. If the banker was not real it would mean that a number of contestants were in on the act, which I suppose is possible. But it would also mean that Noel was doing some major number crunching at the same time as keeping 3.5 million people entertained - a pretty tall order for one show, never mind 75. But I come from near Loch Ness, and the absence of definite proof either way is always more fun.Gilleanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12492995359306742124noreply@blogger.com
