Just wanted to ask if anyone knew if WWTBAM were going to do another lot of celebrity specials over christmas because they seem to do it every year.

I would think so - but as other people have said they arent really "specials" anymore as we get them during the year as well.

Yes, two celebrity specials are being recorded on 27th November. All tickets are now fully booked.

You don't know who are the participants yet by any chance.

I'd like to see Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant do one. Don't think thats likely to happen but still.

Is there a reason why they don't usually have Christmas decorations in the studio for the Christmas specials of Millionnaire?

We haven't had anything but celebrity specials since the money tree was revised, have we?

There was a standard episode shown on a Tuesday a few weeks ago, but its mainly celeb episodes these days.

It's the celeb specials which have ruined this show - they have completely forgotten the real reason the show was created. Having 7 to launch this series was ridiculous, with less than that following in regular episodes on Tuesday nights.

But it seems to be the norm nowadays with ITV, the general public are relegated to rubbish daytime shows.

The new series started on the 18th August with 7 celebrity editions on Saturdays and some Tuesdays until 22nd September launching the new money tree

Since then the show hasn't aired on Saturdays at all, and we've had 4 normal editions on Tuesdays during October

It'll probably be back with a normal run in January

I dont think Tuesday at 8pm is the right slot for this show. Plus it was off every other week due to Football - they should give it a regular slot so people know when its on.
