Hubert Urbański, the host of the Milionerzy show

Milionerzy (Millionaires) is a Polish game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?[1] The show is hosted by Hubert Urbański. The main goal of the game is to win 1 million Polish złoty by answering twelve[2] multiple-choice questions correctly. There are three classic lifelines[2] – ask the audience (pytanie do publiczności), fifty fifty (pół na pół, 50:50) and phone a friend (telefon do przyjaciela) – and also two other lifelines – ask the expert (pytanie do eksperta)[note 2][3] and switch the question (zamiana pytania).[4] From March to December 2010 contestant could choose risk game, where the second guaranteed sum (40,000 zł) was not guaranteed.[5] The first version of Milionerzy was broadcast from 3 September 1999 to 26 January 2003, the second version was broadcast from 19 January 2008 to 19 December 2010, and the third version has been broadcast since 9 February 2017. Since 2017, it is shown every Monday to Thursday at 8:50 p.m. or 8:55 p.m. (CET +1 or CEST +2) on the Polish commercial television station TVN. Since 2008, when a contestant gets the second question correct, they will leave with 1,000 zł. When a contestant gets the seventh question correct, they will leave with 40,000 zł.

Appearance

[edit]

From 1999 through 2003 we could see three changes of the studio stage design, some differ in stylistics. From 2008 through 2010, after resumption we could see the fourth stage design and now, from 2017 onward, the fifth one.

The first logo of Milionerzy from 1999 was very different from the standard model used in other editions of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. It was a violet rhombus on one of vertexes and rings standing on themselves on background of "Milionerzy" caption.[note 4] The second one, modelled on the traditional style and introduced with the changes of credits and scenography in 2000, is round with green question marks.[9] The third one is used from 2008 until now, but in a different color scheme (question marks are gold).[10]

The first and second version of the opening credits were similar with people looking and aiming on Milionerzy logo. It was patterned on British credits of this time. From 2008 until 2023, the opening credits of the program featured an animation showing in sequence all prizes to one million złoty – it was patterned on the second British version.[note 5]

From 1999 to 2003, the boxes depicting the question and answer options in the game were black, in the shape of a rounded hexagon, with a light blue outline.[11]

In 2008 the show switched to rave graphics based on the Macedonian version: the question and answer boxes were navy-blue and smaller than before.[12] Also some sound effects and background music changed.[13]

In 2017 the show switched to rave graphics inspired by the 2011 graphics in the Dutch version. The question boxes were brighter, also fonts were different. The background was not interlaced.

In 2023 the show switched to graphics inspired by the design of Olga van den Brandt. The dominant color is purple, while the question and answer boxes are navy blue.[14]

Production

[edit]

Recording studio

[edit]

The first edition was recorded in the Warsaw-based WFDiF studio, 21, Chełmska St. from 1999 until 2000[15] and in the TVP studio on 17, Woronicza St until 2003. In 2008 and 2009 Milionerzy was recorded in the TVP studio in Kraków, 44, Nowohucka St.[16] In 2010, the show was recorded in Farat Film studio in Warsaw, 22, Notecka St.[17]

From January 2017 to the end of 2018, the show was filmed at the Transcolor studio in Szeligi near Warsaw. From January 2019 to November 2020, the program was recorded in Sękocin Stary at the TVN SCENO-KREACJE studio.[18] In February 2021, recordings returned to Szeligi.

From November 2018 to February 2019, episodes for the Italian version were recorded at the TVN SCENO-KREACJE studio in Sękocin Stary near Warsaw. From 7 December 2018 to 14 March 2019, they aired in Italy on Canale 5, owned by Mediaset. Italy decided to record Millionaire in Poland due to a proposal from Sony Pictures Television, the licensor of the rights to the international format. Representatives stated that the Polish version is considered the best in the world. When agreeing to produce the show in Poland, the Italians had to provide transport to Poland for the production team, the host, and the contestants. Production and substantive support was handled by Jan Kepinski's company Jake Vision, which holds the license of the Polish version of Millionaire. Jake Vision was also responsible for finding an Italian audience in Poland, while the broadcast van was provided by TVN.[19] On 22 and 23 May 2019, four episodes were recorded here to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Spanish version of the show.[20]

Executive producer

[edit]

The executive producer of the program was Endemol in the first version,[21] Intergalactic in the second version,[22] and Jake Vision in the third version.[23]

[edit]
  • Stage I – to become a contestant, you had to phone a special Telemedium number, then choose date of recording of the episode, then answer a question with four variants and tell your personal details. 100 people were drawn from those who answered correctly and told the same recording date and they went to the II stage.
  • Stage II – people, who were drawn, gave their telephone number, and a pollster called them in a 2-days time and asked questions, which didn't have answer variants. 20 people, who gave the most similar answers to the correct ones were going to the III stage.
  • Stage III – before the recording participants had to arrange answer variants in correct order. 12 people, who did it correctly went to the IV stage. They were 10 Fastest Finger First players and two reserves. Pollster phoned them to confirm that they participate.

Milionerzy. 2 miliony

[edit]

In June 2023, TVN announced plans to produce nine special episodes of the show under the name Milionerzy. 2 miliony (running on similar principles as the three million euro week in the German version[59]). The top prize in the ninth episode is two million złoty[60] – this amount is the highest (nominally, in PLN) prize offered so far in Polish game shows. The first episode of this special edition aired on 9 October 2023, and the final on 20 October.[61]

Rules

[edit]

During the first eight episodes, the contestants play in the traditional format – with twelve questions and one million złoty to win, with the difference, however, that there is a custom second milestone (introduced in the original British version in 2018) – before asking a question for a given stake, the host asks whether this amount – after giving a correct answer to the question – is to become the guaranteed sum; the contestant can therefore set the second milestone according to their own preferences.[60]

Anyone who answers at least seven questions correctly advances to the final question. The finalists once again compete in Fastest Finger First. The winner of the elimination decides whether to keep their winnings from the elimination episode and end their appearance in the show, or play for two million, risking to end the game with a lower winnnigs. Before making a decision, the host informs how much of the original winnings the contestant will be able to keep regardless of the outcome of the game for two million.[60]

Faux pas

[edit]

In Milionerzy there were three situations when a player lost because of a laxly said question and was restored to play.

  • The first player made a mistake in the question for 32,000 zł: "Who invented the steam engine?". He answered "James Watt", but the correct answer was "Charles Algernon Parsons". After a complaint to programme's producer, his answer was recognized as correct. The player won a guaranteed 32,000 zł, but he answered incorrectly in the next question for 64,000 zł.[104][105]
  • The second player made a mistake in the question for 500 zł: "How many cuts are on Kaiser rolls?". He answered: "4" (the correct answer was "5") and he won nothing. After recognizing his answer, he answered incorrectly in the question for 1000 zł and he left the studio with nothing for the second time.[106][107]
  • The third player on the question about the author of the picture The Luncheon on the Grass answered Claude Monet, but the correct answer was Édouard Manet. But Monet also painted a less known picture with the same title, so the player was allowed to continue playing.[108]
