The quiz show, which sees plucky people go up against some of the brainiest people in the country to win a cash prize, has a cult following thanks to host Bradley Walsh and the personas of the 'Chasers'.
Bradley, who has also been starring as Doctor Who companion Graham O'Brien over the past year, was gobsmacked as contestants Michael and Ross both answered 10 questions correctly on the Cash Builder round, winning £10,000 each for the team.
