    I worked with his mother that year. When she returned, she brought the best cheesecake I've had in my entire life. We had to wait for the show to air before seeing the results. Her lips were sealed. Good times. Hi Carmelle.

    This is from the March 23, 2000 episode during the primetime version on ABC (United States).

    Unlike the British version, the US version contestants have to pay tax on their winnings. In the British version, all cash prizes are tax free, you win £1 million, you keep that £1 million in full!

      I think that’s the running gag for the show since after the $32k question you have a pitch black studio, lights only on you and the host, and suspense music blasting through the speakers 😂 so it’s designed to stress a person out hence them drinking the water and the audience laughing.
