Synopsis
Pairs of people play short, snappy games - many involving mental agility. They have five minutes for the first five games before money starts to drain out of a massive eggtimer, seeded with £50,000 (£100,000 in the celebrity versions). One final challenge requires a list to be completed before the team wins anything left.
