Caption
  • Matthew did not know, so he decided to walk away with £64,000. The correct answer was A: 2.5 miles.
  • Chris, after realising Matthew did not know the answer, decided to repeat the question and emphasized Chinese while doing so. Matthew then 'decided' to take a wild guess for Chinese, and got it right for £300.
  • From the 9 remaining contestants, 4 got it right, but Matthew was the fastest to correctly answer D: Emu, making it into the Hot Seat.
  • Matthew did not know, so he decided to use his 50:50, eliminating A and B. Still unsure, he decided to call his friend Paul, who was not sure, but would guess Dado. He decided to go with him and won £4,000. Then, the klaxon called time and Matthew would return on £4,000 with only 1 lifeline still available.
