I am still driving my 9 year old Ford Fiesta, and yes I can play the Euro Tour if I work all the hours god has given, I hope that has answered both of your questions.

That's MUCH MORE than our £250,000 top prize?!?!?! I wonder why that is? What are the last 2 boxes worth Johanna? Obviously one is worth 600,000, what's the second one worth?

This is a classic clip of a player being seduced by the board. Believe me you will never experience anything like it, when your name is called out, firstly the centre of attention goes to you. Then added to that the presenter, the banker, fellow contestants, relatives and TV cameras with the rest of the nation watching you, you go from a state of having no pressure to getting all the pressure in the world. And though you have all the support of the people around you, ultimately the decision is yours. And a decision in haste usually does lead to catastrophy, but luckily in this gentlemans case it was a load of cash. The Spanish guy was greedy and at the same time wanted to make history, because the chances of getting the top prize is 1000-1 and not many players get to that point of getting the chance to play for the top prize. Suddenly everything you wanted use the money for go's out of the window for that one moment of madness. [ This message was edited by: Asim on 2007-06-25 12:19 ]

Forgot to mention...he has to share it 50-50 with somebody who was at home watching and sent a text. so he "only" gets 300.000€. May be that´s why he didn´t want to take the 240.000€. However...they pay in 120 days!!
