The Million Pound Drop blunder

[Special]

A couple who lost £325,000 on Channel 4 quiz show 'Million Pound Drop' are to return on Friday night because the producers of the show got the answer wrong.
Viewers saw Johnny and Dee lose £325,000 last week following a question about 'Doctor Who'.
Host Davina McCall asked the couple "Who played Dr Who for the longest period?" with the four possible answers being Sylvester McCoy, Paul McGann, Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant.
The couple were uncertain of the answer so split their remaining money between Sylvester McCoy and Paul McGann and were subsequently informed that they had lost because the answer was David Tennant.
Eagle-eyed 'Doctor Who' fans were quick to contact Channel 4 to tell them that this was incorrect and that Sylvester McCoy had played the Doctor for the longest period.

I misread it, but rightly so that they should return.

[Tintinnabulate]

they won't start again though will they?

Would be unfair if they did.

[Stephen]

[Deak]

They are going to carry on from where they should have been... so they'll be on Question 4 with £325k left
