He was wise to go with the audience on this imo, the fact him and Jeremy were talking through the question and the audience gave a majority (a fairly slim one albeit) to an option that they didn’t even consider says something 😄
Yea he got really lucky there. Most of the time the audience will just go with whatever was said. That’s why the sensible strategy is to ask the audience first before you do anything else. It irked me when Jeremy asked him what he thought the answer was in spite of this.
can i put Siri as one of my phone a friend options?
Then there would be an executive from WWTBAM to check on Siri in order to have her not look up any answers, since that's what they do now with this show.
thedope2000 Siri is useless lol
Wouldn't trust Siri.
Ask the guy in the games control room
Siri would be like 'finding search results for...' 😂
I went to school with this guy. And he NEVER used to revise. He used to just walk up to the exam hall and then ask if anybody has a pen.
No you didn’t.
Lmao no I didn’t 😂
Ask the host is pointless unless it is about cars
Or Mongolia if you have watched the latest Grand Tour episode.
Clarkson has traveled to every country on earth and has an engineering degree, he only acts stupid for comedic purposes
@@scottwhitley3392 he has an honorary engineering doctorate from the "prestigious" Oxford Brookes. It doesn't prove he knows anything. However Clarkson also has good knowledge of wars, in particular WW2.
He also has some obscure knowledge of farming which he used to answer a question once
didn't know what shape the stop sign was so it is a barrel of laughs
They always say 50/50 removes 2 answers ''at random'' from the board but in reality it's NEVER random. Here it removed the 2 answers with the least amount of votes from the audience, which it always does when 50/50 is used after ask the audience. Also, whenever a contestant is considering one of two answers and says he knows the other two are definitely not it, then uses the 50/50, the two answers dismissed by the contestant will ALWAYS be taken off the board. Something like this happens every time I watch parts of this show, it's clearly done on purpose and there's no randomness involved
yeah its kinda rigged
On some of the old episodes of the American version of this show, a few contestants try to get around that by refusing to say which of the answers they are considering. So, say for example a contestant gets stuck at a question and tell Meredith (the host) that they want to use 50/50, she'll ask the contestant if they have any one or two answers that they feel strongly about before activating 50/50. A lot of them will start talking about their hunches but I've also seen others say, "Yeah, I do, but I'm not going to tell you." and then they'll just go to straight to 50/50 at that point.
Best to not say anything. Just go 50/50.
There's only three possibilities: the row, the column, or the diagonal with the wrong answer. Only so many things can happen.
Rigged
Ask the host is the most ridiculous idea ever.
I think that since this show has been going on for so long, they wanted to include something unique and different, so it almost feels like that the host can play along with the show itself, but for only one question with one contestant.
it's something new aight mate
They should have just kept it the same as before with the 3 classic lifelines.
If they the had 'ask the host' lifeline when Chris Tarrant was the host there would be more millionaires. All JC is good for is knowing the bits of a car.
In Germany you can ask someone from the audience. If the Person says the right answer, then he gets 500€
For those wondering what happened he took the $64,000.
Search "take the money and run who wants to be a millionaire"
You mean £64,000.
@@ChrisMelville I am so glad you took the time to correct me I don't know how other people could have understood the comment.
John Zoidberg he was being an idiot....a bit like the idiot who put up the spoiler comment. Two idiots together.
@@johnzoidberg3710 Hey man its like $78,000 Dollars... It used to be a lot more Q.Q
Ask the host.🤔
Host:(in mind)I will not give him right answer.
Can you guys put the full episodes on for the Americans because our version of millionaire is awful now, ugh.
I second this.
I'm from Germany and I watch the UK and US version on TH-cam. And You're absolutely right, the US version is just awful.
@@Radimunto I'm from the states and I'm fed up with the version we have today over there and such, but it's been like this for nearly a decade and personally I really do hope they have the produced plans and such to bring back the hot seat as well as the original music of this show, in the future.
US versions of quizzes generally are awful
alek it’s better with jimmy kimmel
they were thinking about the highwaymen....but that where the ones that caught bonnie and clyde lol
Well, the Highwaymen was the name of a country group that included Johnny Cash. So a bit tricky here
Good video and good to him for going on the show
I thought this was joey Essex from the thumbnail ahaha
The title should have told you it couldn’t be
Only because I’m a fan of musicals - I knew what the answer was before it came up! They made a musical with the same name on broadway in 2010!! 😀❤️
When you know the answer it is so stressful wondering if they will be able to get it
Did the movie not come out in the UK...? that's the only reason I thought I might know this one...
I always imagined that if I were on this show and had to ask the audience, I would give the audience an instruction first: "Dear audience: if you DO KNOW the answer, then obviously vote for it. But if you DON'T KNOW, then please DON'T GUESS. If you don't know, VOTE FOR A."
The logic is that if A is the correct answer, 100% of people will vote for A. However if any of the others are correct (for example C), then the audience will ONLY vote for A or C. The vote will be split between those who don't know and those who do. Then the contestant can happily go for the audience's choice with no risk that it was just a guess.
That's pretty clever, I wonder if there's a rule forbidding the contestants from doing that.
But what would you do in that scenario if for example A gets 95%, B 1%, C 1% and D 3%? Would you assume the answer is so obscure that it has to be D or would you pick A considering that some people might be stubborn enough to think they know the answer anyway even though they don't?
That assumes that the people who think they know the answer really do know the answer so doesn't help
@@wynwilliams6977 Probably only a tiny percentage of people would fall under that category though
@@Meurth not really, the point being just because somebody is sure they are right has no bearing on if they are right, you could ask people who are not 100% sure not to vote which may help but that is about it + He is assuming that the people who think they are right really are right which is a bad assumption
in the Argentine version of WWTBAM, when a contestant uses the ask the audience lifeline, the host requires that only those who know the answer vote.
I find these awfully entertaining
Funny, cause I know this. There's a musical called "Million Dollar Quartet" and a friend of mine from University played both Elvis and Johnny Cash in 2 separate tours here in America.
fun fact: back in the day when people phoned a friend they always used a search engine so now ITV have someone sit with their friends in their homes to make sure no ones cheating
I did not " know" they used a search engine but I heavily suspected.
Presumably, they have to have someone in every one of the player's friends' house as they do not know which he will choose.
@@Isleofskye i know there was a case in the US version where the caller acknowledges that his friend is using the internet.
@@Isleofskyebasically your allowed to use books and stuff not Google
@@declangaming24 They used to nominate 4 Phone-A-Friends and there are 10 contestants to , possibly, play the game, each programme,so do they send 40 people to the 40 homes to ensure fair play?
HE'S GOING PRO
Wow they linked a vid of mr Charles G Ingram the 3rd million pound winner!
Well now I want to know what the host needed to say!
And doesn’t even thank the audience. 😂😂
Why do you show the previous earning.
This contestant was the brother of the wife of my history teacher
While having to go through the 10 second Advertisement at the start I just Danced my way through it for entertainment and also passes the time quicker 😊
Fun fact: you are here for this moment 2:15
*Clarky is great as a replacement for Chris Tarrart who played Mr ? Poker Face !*
Google is CRAZY! I just saw the movie "The Highwaymen" on netflix. Checked its IMDB score and now litterally 5 mins after i've finished the movie, "The Highwaymen" is one of the alternatives for him in this video. IT AINT A COINCIDENCE! SICK!
Yup that's called a coincidence!
Although I am an Accountant you do not have to be that this "random" nonsense is just that .
As you know there is only a 1-in-3 chance of the one the contestant thinks accompanying the correct answer in the " 50/50" but it's more like 80% or 4/5.
You just KNEW that " Highwaymen" was going to come up but applause for him that he did not have a big ego and thought he was right and the larger number of the audience was wrong. The audience ARE quizzers too !
If they the had 'ask the host' lifeline when Chris Tarrant was the host there would be more millionaires. All JC is good for is knowing the bits of a car.
Why didn't he do 50-50 before asking the audience =/
I'm guessing cos it'll just be more likely to be close to 50-50 cos there'll be alot of guessers. Instead, the 50-50 acts to confirm the 'ask the audience' result
because then the audience would be less reliable
A wrong answer would be more likely to get more than 50% if you use the 50-50 first
He used three lifelines jeez... Good thing he had an initial instinct. The guy was killing it up until that point yet I can't help but hate the strategy implemented. Asking the host should never have been used first... Ask the audience always comes first. Then he could have gone with his instinct and set his safety net for the next prize fund... I also feel 50:50 is a complete waste after asking the audience.
onlyweatherlol93 If he used 50:50 and then Ask the Audience, it would make it easier for the audience (and increase the chance of a right answer) since they’d only have two answers to pick from. Like you said, he pretty much wasted Ask the Host and 50:50.
phl6716 phl6716 this is what I thought until I read someone’s comment on a separate post the other day. What you said is wrong. If the audience only have 2 choices they are much more likely to select the wrong answer than they are the correct answer so say in the case of this they are likely to pick C because he said that and 60% of people didn’t know the answer.
I think he used ask the host first since knowing Jeremy this is a type of question he'd be more likely to know. Jeremy is near useless most of the time.
He left with the money
asking the auiendce only really works on the easier questions tho. when you get to the hard stuff there is a better chance the majority is wrong.
This was a question on millionaire before lol
It was on THe Chase...
That fkn 50/50. You almost always know which 2 questions are going to be left to choose from. Especially if the contestant says which one he's thinking beforehand. Take away 2 random wrong answers my bollocks
Its not supposed to be easy - if it was easy then everyone would go home with 1 million and the show wouldnt be worth watching.
@@michaelfoulis7438 you missed my point
@@michaelfoulis7438 true but the tip is to kind of keep quiet so they don't know what you toss up between
@@michaelfoulis7438 you can set safety net anywhere you'd like to
That was nerve wracking
How to use lifelines,50/50:when something that you really really don't know.Ask the audience:For entertainment and popular stuff.For something that's about news or political stuff.Phone a friend: whenever you want to
Clarkson is very impressed by very basic knowledge.
What did he win in the end?
Any lifelines is useful
Just ring up the game controllers
What happened to him
Sadly I dunno I am French 😂
He died
Platonic Love what
@@ThePaperCreater jumped in front of a train
Reign joking right
That 50 50 was pointless then
Surely should've done 50 50 then Audience?
No, because you want the people who have absolutely no clue to split themselves up between 4 answers rather than 2.
@@64cgfan They don't have to vote?
@@ItsThatVogue And ppl don't have to fight, steal, murder, do wars, do drugs, lie... shall I go on?
If you ask the audience and then go 50/50 nine times out of 10 50/50 will just give you the top two answers - assuming one of them is right. Go for 50/50 but don't debate the answers first. I am sure 50/50 is not random.
@@antoniajane5442 Even if it gives the top 2 answers, then you can be fairly certain, that the highest voted is the correct one. But the reason why ppl think that it always gives the top 2 is because it most of the time gives at least the highest voted answer, due to it being the correct one. Now imagine, that there's a question and 20% of the audience knows the correct answer. With four, the percentage would be something like 40-20-20-20% with that one clearly beating 3 others. With 2, it would be something like 60-40% which is not that clear of a difference if you didn't already know the answer after 50-50.
Edit: in the latter case it might even go 55-45% which wouldn't help. The audience vote should ALWAYS be done to four answers to divide the wrong answers wider.
They should remove ask the audience and have change the question instead
Sloghen why should they remove ask the audience? the audience is almost always right
Ask the audience is one of the best lifelines.
@@xiiv.emilia Thank God this clown is just an obscure internet shitposter with no power
What's the use of the "ask the host" lifeline?
banter init lad
It's to have the host play along with the contestant and to give his/her input on what he/she thinks the answer might be to the question. However as Jeremy mentioned, he's not wearing anything or looking at anything that gives the answer away.
@@chrisfinch8637 I guess I just don't see the use in a lifeline that just gives you the input of another clueless idiot. I'd suspect to just end up with more confusion than clarity.
@@Nikolaj11 honestly? It's probably there just for laughs. Just because someone is a host doesn't mean they'll be of use to you in this,and I'm pretty sure they already knew this and simply implemented this lifeline for fun.
if you think it's a suject jeremy might know. if it's a car question you don't know you can ask him. he has said to enjoy films so another strong suit. and if it's about something boring you know Jeremy would say. May would know.
1:10 awkward
was much more intense and exciting under chris tarrant
Who else loves Jeremy?
Three words: "I hate cricket." LOL
How does anyone not know that was The Million Dollar Quartet?
Because knowing that shit doesn't make us do better in real life. Except for the people on that show apparently
Because people from a country outside the US may have a harder time answering a question about US singers
@@AWOL_Narwhal I'm not from the US, I was many years from even being born when this took place, and it's not remotely my kind of music but I knew the answer immediately. The Million Dollar Quarter is very famous.
@@CHANGINGTHEDUWA While I'm here, I didn't suggest knowing this answer made anyone's life better. Merely expressed surprise at lack of knowledge of a very well-known event.
@@decodolly1535 it's not very well known if you don't like that type of music actually
That question at the end was a piece of piss.. what he clearly didn't realize is that the clue was in the answer. Quartet meaning 4 and the question related to 4 individuals. Come on it's not rocket science
The four horsemen also has a four.so guessing based on number 4 would just be a shot in the dark
@@zippyclips719 exactly
Brandon Cox additionally the four horsemen would have negative connotations so it could be excluded and also they were the biggest artists from the time and they had so much money they’re producer bought Jerry Lee a Cadillac they had that much money to throw around
@@zippyclips719 And they threw in the state of "Tennessee" in D: The Tennessee All Stars, as a bit of a twist, since they recorded their session in Memphis, TN.
