    Yep - We knew the anwer too as we were only looking at our diaries about an hour earlier to figure out a friends wedding anniversary present.

    After a horrible trip to the dentist yesterday - cheered me up!

    Something like - Which item represents a 35th Wedding Anniversary - and he had the choice of:

    Pearl
    Coral
    Ruby
    Emerald

    He did 50/50 which left Pearl and Coral and he picked Pearl - but that is 30th!

    YES I KNOW - I need to get out more! Either that or I have a good memory!

    Wouldn't have known that.

    a 50/50 guess to win £30k or drop £19K if I remember the increments correctly (£20k to £50K) so a reasonable gamble ( 60/40)especially if he is a lawyer and earns £150 a hour so can afford to miss out.

    Aye, but as he said you have one life. He was a grand richer before he started. Good luck to him.

    I also would have gambled on 20k, and would also probably have got it wrong.

    did he phone an array of people on his 'phone a friend' who didn't know what he was talking about and by the time they warmed up to processing the information the time was up?

    or did he dish out to chris tarrant and other studio members the questions that he would and wouldn't be answering during the quiz?
