Millionaire Hot Seat

Millionaire Hot Seat is a fast-paced, tactical twist on the classic format. Hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, the show places six contestants in a rotating "hot seat", demanding quick thinking, strategy and composure under pressure.

Six contestants compete in a queue around the Hot Seat. Only the contestant currently in the Hot Seat can answer questions on the money ladder.

Answer correctly → climb the ladder
Answer incorrectly → you're out, and the top prize drops. 
Pass → you stay in the game, but return to the back of the queue.
Passed questions must be answered by the next player correctly to stay, answer incorrectly and they're out.
Only the top remaining prize can be won.
