Who Wants To Be A Millionaire host Jeremy Clarkson was left shocked during a recent episode when a contestant took on the £1 million question. The contestant, Nicholas, was on a roll, climbing up the prize ladder and setting his safety net at £125,000. However, things took a turn when he faced the ultimate question that could win him a million pounds.
Jeremy Clarkson, known for his witty remarks, didn’t hold back as he joked about the contestant’s nerves before posing the challenging question. The audience couldn’t help but laugh as Jeremy urged Nicholas to focus on winning money rather than his feelings. Despite sailing through earlier questions, Nicholas found himself stumped when he had to choose between four words coined by famous writers.
The tension rose as Nicholas contemplated using his lifelines, including calling a friend for help. Unfortunately, his roommate couldn’t provide the answer, leaving Nicholas to make a tough decision. In a bold move, Nicholas decided to take a gamble and go for the answer he believed was correct. However, to everyone’s surprise, the computer revealed that Nicholas had chosen the wrong option, missing out on the million-pound prize. Despite the disappointment, viewers at home commended Nicholas for his bravery in taking the risk. The moment left Jeremy reflecting on whether this was the biggest loss in the show’s history, but he also expressed his admiration for the contestant’s courage.
