Louis XIV is indisposed, but he asked me to pass on this question.

What was ze first Breetesh TV show to give away £1,000,000 to a viewer?

Aw, you didn't make a joke about the number 20!

(EDIT: Have just remembered what "score" means, I am a pillock.)

I'll guess at WWTBAM, but that's faaar too obvious... I'm assuming the Lottery doesn't count either, because it's not the actual show doing the giving.

Sorry about that Hommes, had a spot of gangrene.

Anyway, WWTBAM (or as it's known over here, QVEUM) is wrong, as is the lottery.

Keep guessing, there's not many shows it could be!

I'm guessing a Chris Evans show - TFI Friday?

C'est vrai!

It was "Merci baise, c'est Vendredi!" ... which gave away its £1,000,000 prize money several months before the Queen's cousin won hers on WWTBAM.

Over to you, lehut!

Ok, the woeful Big Brother started last night. 14 fame hungry media whores pitting their ego's against one another for invites to C-list film premiers for the next couple of years...

So, who was the first ever person to be evicted from the UK Big Brother house?

Thank you your unknownness - most generous of ye!

A fairly easy footy question for those up on their football.

Which footballer famously said that he couldn't settle when he was in Italy, as it was like he was living in a foreign country?

Was it Gazza (on his time at Lazio?)
