Ah. That's good. What charity was it for, may I ask?

As no one else has replied, it apparently got 3.8million on Tuesday, with Holby city taking 6.2million.

Do you think it would be good if our Millionaire was changed so it is like the American Super Millionaire?:

I think it's a bit OTT and also the rules get complicated!

It hasn't changed much, neither has Chris for that matter, since 1998 has it.

The revamp was needed.

The titles look quite nice, and it could be feasible at, say, a BIG anniversary or something (providing ITV has £10,000,000 to give away).

This video shows the rather good titles used for Who Wants to be a Celebrity Roulette Millionaire , which are let down by that dreadful theme tune.

Back in Blighty, it's IMO the other way around. I do quite like the new music, graphics and beds, but the titles look very tacky. The last set of titles was fabulous.

How about calling this thread "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? - General Discussion" "Formally Millionaire Changes "?

On Monday, WWTBAM returnes to Australia after a 16-month hiatus, with some changes. Instead of fifteen questions, it'll be 16. And a fourth life line is introduced at the $64,000 question.

Here is the new prize layout.
(16) $5,000,000
(15) $1,000,000
(14) $500,000
(13) $250,000
(12) $125,000
(11) $64,000
(10) $32,000
(9) $16,000
[8] $8,000
(7) $4,000
(6) $2,000
(5) $1,000
(4) $500
(3) $300
(2) $200
(1) $100

Whilst UK Millionaire reduces the number of questions, Aussie Millionaire goes in the opposite direction. In theory, a contestant could lose up to $968,000 if all goes wrong. It seems wrong to add more questions. What's your thoughs?
