Description

A pair of contestants are given their prize at the start of the show – bundles of real cash. All they have to do is keep hold of it and just eight questions stand between them and their chance to take home the money.

This is played out on the Drop – a fiendish device with four trapdoors, on which the answers to each question are displayed. They have 60 seconds to place their money on the trapdoor(s) and when time’s up, the team must step up to the drop to find out if their choices were right or wrong. As the game progresses, the questions get harder and the answers become fewer but after eight questions whatever cash – if any – is left on the table is theirs to keep.
