    Once again, this viewers' game may as well be called 'Guess The Digit'... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Aaaand the second viewer guesses correctly, meaning that the third viewer has pretty much wasted her journey. :rolleyes:

    Did anyone else spot the hand behind the pyramid pushing the drawer closed from behind just there! When the person picks the number in the pyramid someone could be putting in a zero or a cash amount!!:mad:

    The RTE article said one lucky person would win €100k.

    I take it that means Des has won it - not him and Eimear together?

    I really do see where the conspiracy theorists are coming from. When they choose the number, the camera pans behind the other side of the pyramid so we can't see what's going on behind or to the left of the chiffarobe. Nicky then takes his time walking over and asks 'are you sure?' It's perfectly plausible someone could pass in an envelope in that time without us seeing anything. There's also a massive lack of transparency in not showing us what's in the other compartments.

    Not one for conspiracies often but it might explain why he does so much walking around the stage, i thought it was just to pad an already boring show but maybe it is to give time for them to put in envelopes.

    Still if it was done electronically people would be saying the same and if they had to show every envelope zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz altogether

    Also, I dont understand how the independent observer Stokes Kennedy Crowley are meant to audit this... Do they have somebody round the back of the pyramid making sure the guy pushes the right tray?

    In terms of auditing, I'd imagine most of that goes on before and after filming but it seems a bit fishy not seeing the rest of the envelopes. If this was being filmed in the 21st century it would be a digital pyramid and they could just show us what's behind the rest of the compartments and move on quickly to the next row.
