It's very exciting knowing that your not that far away from a million. I did not expect to get to this point to be honest, but what helped was that I used the lifelines at the right time, as those two questions I used them on weren't my strongest subjects.

You got a good point there. I mean, not everyone's a wiz kid at US history.
*audience laughs*
In any case, heres question 11 for £64,000. You'd might as well give this one a go, because if you get it wrong, you don't lose anything.

As I said before, History isn't my biggest strength, but I've got nothing to lose here, so I might as well give it a go.
Henry IV is the only king I have heard of from this list, I haven't heard of the other three kings before, so with that being said I'm going to lock in B- Henry IV, final answer

The audience helped confirm my hunch I had about the answer. 1862 seems too early for a change, along with 1864. So that leaves C and D. Usually cities that had different names or different locations, usually they were sometimes changed in the later years, so with that being said, im going to go with the audience and Lock in D - 1868, Final answer

Going to have a good think about this one.
I don't think Manila has a larger population than Illinois, as the US has very large populations in some of their states, and the Phillipines is a much smaller country than America.
Tokyo, being one of Japan's major cities, I think would be bigger than Pennsylvania, so I would rule that one out as well.
That leaves A and C. I'm leaning towards C, as Delhi is one of the biggest cities in India, let alone the world, and even though New York is big in its own right, I don't think it would be higher than Delhi.
Oh man, Double Dip would of been handy at this point...
*Sigh* I can't believe I'm doing this....
Lock in C, Final answer

You took a big risk going for C...
but unfortunately, it didn't pay off, because that is the wrong answer.
