I know this is the 3rd consecutive post i've made on the Internation Millionaire Discussion Board, but I just came up with this.
Since Milllionaire in the UK starting doing Celebrity only episodes, the ratings have dropped dramatically. I can even prove it.
December 23rd, 2010: Christmas Special, 6.67MILLION viewers April 2nd, 2011: Mother's Day Special, 4.89MILLION viewers July 15th, 2011: School's Out Special, 4.65MILLION viewers August 20th, 2011: Soap Stars Special Part 1: 4.16MILLION viewers August 21st, 2011: Soap Stars Special Part 2: 4.24MILLION
The 2nd Part of the Soap Stars special may have increased by 800,000 viewers but it aint enough.
I want to hear your suggestions on how Millionaire in the UK can do to stay on the air and boost up the ratings.

The first reason why they've done specials is because the ratings for the regular episodes plummeted. They only got around 3.5M viewers for the last regular episodes (aka The Big Bad Clock)
I think, right now the British are bored with Millionaire. ITV (if they would like to do another civilian Millionaire) should either go the old-fashioned way, or make some really extreme, new, exciting changes. But Millionaire is better than High Stakes, the game show that now occupies Millionaire's timeslot (I believe). First episode of High Stakes are watched by only 2.2M, even lower compared to the regular Millionaire. As I don't know what's the usual viewership during the said timeslot, I could not compare it with another show on the same timeslot's rating, but the obvious thing is: Millionaire is better than High Stakes (or Chris Tarrant is better than Jeremy Kyle? I don't know).

I dont like this method but if ratings are too down they can use
