Synopsis
An attempt to be an upmarket Quizmania, presumably.
Trivia
On 12 May 2006, the first jackpot (over £108,000) was won by Diane Bailey who guessed the correct code of 8648. The show had previously told people the code began with 86, and that the last digit was an even number and regularly went through a list of numbers that had already been guessed.
The second jackpot of £130,721 (probably the biggest prize to be given away by a participation TV show) was won by a caller called Keith on 20th October 2006. The winning code was 7012 and was given via a general knowledge question, asked by former ITN newsreader Nicholas Owen.
