'''''The Million Pound Drop Live''''' is a [[British Academy Film Awards|BAFTA]]-winning [[game show]] which broadcasts live on [[Channel 4]] in the United Kingdom. The show began in May 2010 with [[Davina McCall]] having presented the show's eleven series to date.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-million-pound-drop-live/episode-guide/series-1/episode-1|title=Series 1 : Episode 1 : The Million Pound Drop Live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|accessdate=2010-05-25|url=http://watchwithmothers.net/2010/05/25/the-million-pound-drop-live/|title=The Million Pound Drop Live|work=Watch With Mothers}}</ref> She began presenting the show just before the launch of the [[Big Brother 11 (UK)|final Channel 4 series]] of ''[[Big Brother (UK)|Big Brother]]'', which she also presented. |
|||
The show uses [[social networking]] sites such as [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]] to find contestants, and also to promote the show. David Flynn, managing director of [[Endemol]]'s Remarkable Television, which produced the show, said: "The plan was to create buzz and an air of mystery around the show by trickling information about auditions via Twitter and Facebook, giving fans a level of exclusivity."<ref name="boostsonline">{{cite web|accessdate=2010-05-25|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/digitaltv/news/a220898/c4-boosts-online-for-million-pound-drop.html|title=C4 boosts online for 'Million Pound Drop'|author=Andrew Laughlin|date=20 May 2010|work=[[Digital Spy]]}}</ref> |
|||
==Format== |
|||
Contestants, alone or in pairs for the first series, or only in pairs for all subsequent series, are given one million [[pound sterling|pounds]] in [[Fifty pound note|£50 notes]] at the start of the show, banded in 40 bundles of [[pound sterling|£]]25,000. They must then answer eight questions in an effort to keep as much of their money as possible. Many questions are heavily focused on current or recent events (even events that occur during the airing of the show), to push the fact that the show is broadcast live. |
|||
At the beginning of each round, the contestants have to pick a category of two choices they are given. If the contestants take too long to choose, a coin is flipped to decide. Each question is [[multiple-choice question|multiple-choice]], with the first four questions having four choices, the next three questions having three, and the final question having just two choices. Unlike a traditional quiz where the contestants pick one answer, however, it is possible for the contestants to [[Hedge (finance)|hedge]] by placing money (in multiples of £25,000) on multiple answers in proportion to how confident they are on the answer. However, one answer must always be left with no money on it, which ensures that on the final question, only one answer can be chosen. After the answers and question have been read out, the contestants have one minute to physically move their money onto [[trapdoor]]s (called "drops") corresponding to the answer(s) they choose. If contestants are sure of their answer, they may choose to stop the clock before the time limit is up to carry on with the answers. |
|||
After the end of the time limit, the trapdoors relating to incorrect answers open (sometimes one by one, and with varying delays to increase suspense), and any money placed on those answers is no longer available to be won by the contestants, being picked up by security guards underneath the stage. In addition any money not placed by the end of the time limit is also lost. If they have any money left, they proceed to the next question where the process is repeated. However, if they lose all their money, they are out of the game. |
|||
Episodes usually last between 60 and 90 minutes, although the last episode of the series may end slightly sooner or later depending on the contestants' performance. On 23 June 2012, for the first time in the show's history, the episode was extended to 120 minutes. The following week's episode on 30 June 2012 was 100 minutes. |
|||
For the 2010 Christmas specials, any contestants who lost all their money and would otherwise have left empty-handed were presented with multiple doors corresponding to bonus prizes. The contestants would choose which door they wanted and would win what was 'behind' that door. From the 2011 Christmas specials onwards, a new features was introduced where online players can now play against each other and also a money counter on the drops themselves which shows how much money is placed on each drop instead of the players having to count the money. |
|||
On 2 January 2012, as part of the ''Channel 4 Mash-up'', Davina played the game with Andrew, her father. [[Phil Spencer]] from ''[[Location, Location, Location]]'' hosted the show. The ''Channel 4 Mash-up'' happened again in 2013 and this time [[Alan Carr]] hosted. |
|||
==Interactivity== |
|||
As the show is broadcast live, viewers are encouraged to play along online at the same time with statistics on their performance appearing on screen during the broadcast and being read out by McCall.<ref name="boostsonline"/> Online players receive no prize money. [[Bookmakers]] also take bets on which stage of the game the contestants will leave and how much money will still be in play at various stage of the game.<ref>[http://www.skybet.com/betting/tv-and-film-specials/million-pound-drop/t10006167.html skyBET - Million Pound Drop]</ref> Often on the show, if there is a question relating to a particular online source, Davina will announce that the website in question has crashed due to a large amount of online players looking up the answers. |

==Specials== |
|||
===''The Channel 4 Mash-up''=== |
|||
On 2 January 2012, a special version of the show aired as part of ''The Channel 4 Mash-up''. The special edition was hosted by [[Phil Spencer]] and featured Davina and her father, Andrew, as contestants. This special edition was not broadcast live, as the show usually is, but instead was shown in three pre-recorded 20 minute chunks spread throughout the 'mash-up night' at 18:35, 19:55 and 21:40. Davina and her father made it through to the final question with £50,000 but placed their money on the incorrect answer and lost. |
|||
The show returned on 4 January 2013 with [[Alan Carr]] as host. The contestants were: [[Sherrie Hewson]], [[Lisa Maxwell (actress)|Lisa Maxwell]], [[Jane McDonald]], [[Denise Welch]], [[Alexander Armstrong (comedian)|Alexander Armstrong]] and [[Richard Bacon (broadcaster)|Richard Bacon]]. |
|||
===''Stand Up to Cancer''=== |
|||
On 19 October 2012, a special version aired live as part of Channel 4's UK telethon, ''[[Stand Up to Cancer]]''. For this show, the million pounds was doubled (thus making it ''The Two Million Pound Drop'') and a special 16-player celebrity relay team took on the drop for cancer-related charities. A different pair of celebrities handled each question, with the show airing in two segments — questions 1 to 4 at 21:00 and questions 5–8 were later in the evening. Each pair was given just 30 seconds, instead of the usual 60 seconds, for their question. |
|||
McCall switched back and forth between the live telethon, hosted alongside [[Alan Carr]] and Dr [[Christian Jessen]], and the two ''Drop'' segments. The celebrity relay banked £200,000 for ''Stand Up to Cancer'', with the final four pairs wagering the entire amount on a single answer on each question. This special was included in the ninth series of the show (as that series was in progress), unlike the Channel 4 'mash-up' which was a separate edition. |
|||
==''Celebrity Games'' series== |
|||
Over four weekends, beginning Friday 20 July 2012, four teams (consisting of six pairs) of celebrities would take on ''The Million Pound Drop''. Their aim was to collectively win £1,000,000 for Paralympics-related charities over the four weekends to celebrate Channel 4's status as host broadcaster of the [[2012 Summer Paralympics]]. Every weekend, if the six couples managed to collectively win £150,000 the show would add another £100,000 to the pot. While one couple played the game, the remaining five couples would play the game online backstage in the "Games Room". The couple who played the online game best would be the next couple to take on the drop. |
|||
===Week 1=== |
|||
The first team consisted of [[Vic Reeves]] and [[Bob Mortimer]] (team captains), [[Ben Shephard]] and [[Kate Garraway]], [[Natalie Cassidy]] and [[Frankie Cocozza]], [[Aled Jones (radio producer)|Aled Jones]] and [[Sara Cox]], [[Ola Jordan]] and [[James Jordan (dancer)|James Jordan]], and [[Jonathan Edwards (athlete)|Jonathan Edwards]] and [[Colin Jackson]]. |
|||
On Friday 20 July, [[Vic and Bob]] played and managed to make it to question 8 with £225,000 but lost all their money. [[Natalie Cassidy]] and [[Frankie Cocozza]] played next but dropped out on question 6 with £125,000. [[Aled Jones (radio producer)|Aled Jones]] and [[Sara Cox]] took on the drop next and won £125,000. [[Jonathan Edwards (athlete)|Jonathan Edwards]] and [[Colin Jackson]] were the last couple to take on the drop and won £100,000 meaning the team collectively won £225,000 for charity. The show also added an extra £100,000 to the pot, meaning the total win was £325,000. |
|||
===Week 2=== |
|||
The second team consisted of [[Professor Green]] and Big Lew (team captains), [[Rachel Riley]] and [[Mark Foster (swimmer)|Mark Foster]], [[Joe Swash]] and [[Jessica-Jane Clement]], [[Debra Stephenson]] and [[Jon Culshaw]], and [[Martin Kemp (entertainer)|Martin Kemp]] and his son, Roman. |
|||
[[Professor Green]] and Big Lew played first but lost on question 4. [[Rachel Riley]] and [[Mark Foster (swimmer)|Mark Foster]] did best playing in the game room so were next to take on the drop, they won £50,000. [[Joe Swash]] and [[Jessica-Jane Clement]] played next but lost all of their money on question 6. [[Debra Stephenson]] and [[Jon Culshaw]] played fourth. They made it to question 7 with £100,000 but bet all their money on the wrong answer. Martin and Roman Kemp played last, but didn't make it past question 2. At the end of the second weekend of games, the total raised so far was £350,000. |
|||
===Week 3=== |
|||
The third team consisted of [[Steps (group)|Steps]] (team captains), Dr. Dawn Harper and Dr. [[Christian Jessen]] from ''[[Embarrassing Bodies]]'', Hugo and Binky from ''[[Made in Chelsea]]'', and [[John McCririck]] and [[Frankie Dettori]]. As there are five members of Steps, they would play in pairs, each answering two questions. |
|||
Lisa and H from Steps answered the first two questions correctly. Claire and Lee played next, but lost their money on question 4. Dr. Dawn and Dr. Christian played next. They made it to question 8 with £50,000 but unfortunately bet it all on the wrong answer. Hugo and Binky were up next and won £25,000 for charity. |
|||
The next game would be played as a relay, with different pairs being selected to answer each question. Each pair can only answer two questions. John and Frankie went first and answered the first question correctly. They were followed by H and Faye from Steps, Dr. Dawn and Dr. Christian, Hugo and Binky, Steps' Claire and Lisa, Dr. Dawn and Dr. Christian and Hugo and Binky. John and Frankie were left to answer the final question with the remaining £125,000. They placed the money on the winning drop, taking the total weekend winnings to £150,000. As they raised over the £150,000 target, an extra £100,000 was added to the prize. At the end of the third weekend of games, the total raised so far was £600,000. |
|||
===Week 4=== |
|||
The fourth team consisted of [[Ade Adepitan]] and [[Iwan Thomas]] (team captains), radio DJs [[Lisa Snowdon]] and [[Dave Berry (presenter)|Dave Berry]], cricketers [[Stuart Broad]] and [[James Anderson (cricketer)|James Anderson]], and Irish entertainers [[Jedward]]. |
|||
Ade and Iwan played first, but they crashed out on question 6. Lisa and Dave played next and won £25,000. Next up were Jedward, but lost their remaining £300,000 on question 3. The last pair to face the drop were Stuart and James, who made it to the final question but lost their remaining £25,000 on the final question. |
|||
All four pairs then faced a bonus question 8 at the end of the show, which featured each of them playing a single question for £50,000, meaning that there was an extra £200,000 up for grabs, in addition to the possible £100,000 bonus if they could hit a combined total of £150,000. First up for their bonus question were Ade and Iwan, but they answered incorrectly and lost their £50,000. Next were Lisa and Dave, who met the same fate, as did Stuart and James, meaning that it was down to Jedward to salvage some money. Jedward correctly answered their question and won £50,000 for charity, bringing the total for the final weekend to £75,000 and the grand total for the series to £700,000. |
|||
==Controversy== |
|||
During an episode on 5 November 2010, contestants Johnny and Dee were faced with the options [[Sylvester McCoy]], [[Paul McGann]], [[Christopher Eccleston]] and [[David Tennant]]. They were then asked "Who played [[Doctor (Doctor Who)|Dr Who]] for the longest period?". The contestants did not know the answer so decided to split their remaining £650,000 between McCoy and McGann. The answer was then revealed to be Tennant and they lost all their remaining money.<ref name="article-1327676">{{cite news |url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1327676/Channel-4-hand-Million-Pound-Drop-couple-325k-Doctor-Who-error.html |title=Red-faced Channel 4 hand Million Pound Drop couple £325,000 reprieve after admitting it was wrong on Doctor Who |author=Gavin Allen |date=9 November 2010 |newspaper=[[Daily Mail]]}}</ref> Tennant played Doctor Who from 2005-2010. However, viewers began to query the accuracy of this question,<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/tv/news/2010/11/08/million-pound-drop-quiz-couple-lose-325-000-on-right-answer-about-doctor-who-115875-22700905/ |title=Million Pound Drop quiz couple lose £325,000 on 'right' answer about Doctor Who |author=Victoria Murphy |date= 8 November 2010 |newspaper=[[Daily Mirror]]}}</ref> saying it was open to interpretation as McCoy played the Doctor from 1987–1989, but also appeared in the charity special ''[[Dimensions in Time]]'' in 1993 and in the beginning of the [[Doctor Who (film)|''Doctor Who'' television film]] in 1996, making his time playing Doctor Who technically nine years uninterrupted. After producers spoke to the BBC, it became apparent that McCoy was the correct answer. Channel 4 therefore allowed Johnny and Dee to return and continue with the £325,000 that would have remained.<ref name="article-1327676"/> They came back on 12 November 2010, to continue the game. They got all the way to the final question and managed to win £25,000. |
