Not for 40k would I go near Marty Whelan. He'd drive you up the wall.

It's a soft ticket. I'd put it in the same bracket as that dangerous dreamer Noel Edmonds deal or no deal. A game-show that requires no brain power. The audience are basically zombies with banners.

i'd love to go on winning streak what are you all talking about!!

win a car, holiday, and thousands in cash...what's the problem ?!

both my parents have been on it in the audience , apparently it's gas, i think there's a free bar too. and a meal.

It doesn't work. I lost my last job because of such-a-thing. Terrible advice indeed. They have it all on CCTV as well as on their security systems. Promotion my arse, it's not worth it.

I would, it was very unfair a few years ago when some people would go home with very little money but now everyone seems to do reasonably well.

The presenters are a bit patronising at times but it's easy get over that when winning money.

Is there ever anyone who goes on alone? It would put me off having to talk so much about yourself and drag a load of family members on

I always assumed that the people who have people go on in their place are on the dole and don't want to get caught with their new found thousands.

It's the most cringey TV show ever made, so no. And I know neither of my parents would be seen dead on it either. My sister says she would go on for me, but only for half my winnings (in fact, it might have been more than half, she drives a hard bargain).

It's a tough one. Having to live with yourself after being spoken to like a complete cretin on national television (though only old people watch it), or keeping your dignity and penury. Hmmm.

I would as long as Derek Mooney wasn't presenting it. Imo he came across as an auld bollix on the show. He tries to be fake nice but says horrible nasty things to folks on the show for his own amusement. I watched it one night and he slagged a woman in the audience wearing a scarf on her head who obviously was undergoing chemo at the time. He said something along the lines of nice hat and then started laughing. What a ****ing dickhead :mad:

I would love to do a streak on winning streak. get up off me chair, take the whole lot off and run across the studio in front of the cameras shouting "Hey Marty what do ya think of these bouncing coloured balls"!!!!
