*Final answer Q8-13 cue plays* Well... You had £5,000... We would've loved to give you 5,000 more... And we can ! You've just won £10,000 ! *Correct answer Q8 cue plays, audience applauds* *Lights down Q8-13 cue plays* Okay ! As the game goes by, and you giving me right answers after right answers, we're getting nearer from the second millestone of £50,000 and, of course, the Million pounds. You're actually 7 questions away from 1 Million pounds. Don't forget that you still have 50:50, PAF and ATA left to help you. The next question's worth £20,000. Take your time. Have a good look at the question, here's question 6 for 20 grand:

I've never heard of Peter, Henry, or Bridget. I heard of Jane Fonda, she's the most famous among those. She's, you know, like Eva Gabor, Greta Garbo, Audrey Hepburn, like that, she is classic. So, D: Jane, final answer.

*Final answer Q9-14 cue plays* First, let me tell you that Henry Fonda is the father of both Peter and Jane Fonda and was born in 1905. Then, we have Bridget Fonda who was born in 1964, and then, between Jane and Peter Fonda, only two years separates them. One is born in 1940 and the oldest in 1937... The oldest between them is 78 years-old, and it's...Jane Fonda ! You've won £20,000 ! *Correct answer Q9 cue plays, audience applauds* *Lights down Q9-14 cue plays* Okay ! Now, be careful. You still have your three lifelines intact, which is not usual at this point in the game, and I have to tell you that if you give me a wrong answer here, you'll first lose just before the first millestone, which can be kind of frustrating, but you'll mostly lose £19,000 of the £20,000 you've got at the moment. Remember that you can walk away with 20 grand. Right. Question number 7 for a guarenteed £50,000:

Well, parrot and hamster sounds cute, but no. He can't bite with either of them. It can't be a slug because it is very slimy, so I think Ozzy Osborne did very punk and gory acts, so C: bat, final answer.

*Final answer Q10-15 cue plays* If it's the right answer...you win £50,000. But instead, if you gave me the wrong answer, that'll cost you £19,000 ! You are ABSOLUTELY right for £50,000 !! *Q10 Winner cue plays, audience applauds* *Lights Down cue plays* Wow ! What a contestant you are ! And I don't why but I genuinely think that you're going to win that Million ! Well, now you have nothing to lose here. And again, you don't necessarily need to walk away as you've just reached the threshold of £50,000. What's incredible, is that YOU still HAVE three lifelines INTACT even at this point in the game, and I can tell that it doesn't happen that often. Right. Now that you have £50,000 guarenteed no matter what happens with 3 lifelines left and nothing to lose. How do you feel, right now ? Were the 7 previous questions too easy for you ?

Maybe. But again, no matter what the outcome is, I am so happy for the result. £50,000 would be that enough. But, I think if my thinking would work, I can go to, maybe around £250,000.

Right. You have £50,000 guaranteed no matter what happens. Still have all 3 lifelines. Next question for £75,000, you've got nothing to lose. Here it is: *Q11 Heartbeat cue plays*

India ink... Well, if I am picturing the Asian map from my memory, India borders Nepal, Pakistan, and China, so Vietnam has to be ruled out. China sounds logical because both China and India have a billion population, but I never heard of Vietnamese ruled India, or Nepalese ruled India. But, like I said, India and China both have a population of over a billion, and both of them ruled in ancient times. I have to go with my gut and say D: China, final answer.

*Final answer Q6-11 cue plays* You had nothing to lose on this question... You went with your gut here and you made D:China your final answer... You went with your gut and it paid off ! You've just won £75,000 !! *Correct answer cue Q11 plays, audience applauds* *Lights Down Q6-11 cue plays* Wow ! No lifelines, £75,000 ! Well done ! But now the pressure is really starting to mount as we're getting further in the game. Right. If you give me a right answer on the next question you'll win £150,000 ! Otherwise, if you have the misfortune to give me the wrong answer you'd lose £25,000 ! If you have any doubts whatsoever, you still have 3 lifelines intact waiting to be used. Now it's your choice. You can either take 75 grand or take a gamble and risk 25 grand. Take your time. Question number nine for a possible £150,000, here it is: *Q12 Heartbeat cue plays*

Including the antenna at the top, how high is the Eiffel Tower? Well, I remember that there was a mini-game in TFK Almanac 2007 called "High, There!", there are six: that, Washington Monument, Clock Tower of Big Ben, Great Pyramid of Cheops, Gateway Arch, and Statue of Liberty. If I'm not mistaken, counting the antenna, it's probably 1,024 feet, including the antenna. Without it, it's down to almost 960 feet. And maybe, France, your country, may host the 2024 Olympics, so I think based on what I remember way back from that, the Eiffel Tower, with the antenna, is... Sorry, Amillionaire, no guts, no glory. A: 324 m, final answer.

*Final answer Q7-12 cue plays* Well, you perhaps should've used a lifeline here... But you didn't. *sighs* Apparently no, you don't need those lifelines because you've just won ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND POUNDS !!!*Correct answer Q12 cue plays, audience wildy applauds*
*Lights Down Q7-12 cue plays* Wow ! What an incredible performance so far !! £150,000 !! My friend ! Wow ! You are really going to get that Million, don't ya !? How did you know that the Eiffel Tower is 324 meters high with the antenna ? Where did you learn this ?

It's just my mnemonic that 24 means 1924, the year where Paris hosted the Olympics, so I think based on my mathematical skills and intensive reading. In fact, I read a lot of books when I was at Grade 4.

Well, Okay. Can you tell me (if that doesn't bother you) the calculation that you did, to come to the conclusion that A:324 meters was the right answer? I'll probably not understand it, but that you would be interresting to know.

Well, without the antenna, the height was almost 960 ft. The height with it is around 1,024 ft. So, the antenna's height is around 64 feet. I think it equals 24 meters, if the height of the antenna were to be counted, because of proportion that 0.305 m equals 1 foot. It's not that kind of accurate, but my estimate is that the height, with the antenna is 312 meters. And from the choices, the nearest one is 324 meters.

Oh ! Okay, interesting. Well, before we go on with the game and ask you the question for a quarter of a million, we'll take a little break and we'll be back in a few minutes (hours actually ) ! Don't go away ! *Commercial break in cue plays, audience applauds*
