Phone a Friend:
Choose to phone one of two celebrity buddies for each question to help guide you towards the correct answer, but remember, as the questions get tougher, the less reliable their answers become. Celebrities include Taylor Swift, Donald Trump, Queen Elizabeth, Lionel Messi, Meghan Markle, Kim Kardashian, Oprah Winfrey and 22 more, each with their own (fully editable) unique insight into the questions.
Ask the Audience:
Ask the 100-strong audience to give you their opinions, but don’t count on them being right every time, especially as you get closer to the big money prizes.
50:50:
Take away two wrong answers, leaving you with the correct answer and one remaining wrong answer. Come on, you’ve got to go for it at this point, right?
Ask the Host:
As the ‘host’, it’s totally up to you how much extra help you give them, but with atmospheric music and visuals, whatever you decide to do is sure to engage, just try not to behave too much like Jeremy Clarkson.
With so many versions available, why choose this one?
