C4's PROGRAMME BLURB SAYS:
 +
 +
Davina McCall hosts the first of six consecutive nights of an extraordinary new, live game show. Filmed in a highly secure location, contestants are given their prize of a million pounds at the start of the show, but they then face eight tough questions that are linked to four trapdoors, each representing an answer, in order to hold on to the cash. They must put the money on the right answer in order to move to the next question. If they are unsure of the answer they can spread the money across the trapdoors, but if the answer is wrong their winnings will fall through the doors and be lost forever.

["Highly secure location" is surely hyperbole, given that it's supposed to have a live studio audience. - JT]
