Who wants to be a millionaire?

[weinbeck]

Paddy manages to get onto Chris Tarrant's "Who wants to be a millionaire?" He is doing exceedingly well - he has just won £500,000.00, and still has three lifelines.

Chris: Paddy, for £1000000.00 which one of these four Ronnies took part in The Great Train Robbery? Was it a.) Ronald Biggs, b.) Ronnie Corbett (comedian) c.) Ronnie Barker (comedian) or was it d.) Ronnie O' Sullivan? (famous jockey)

Paddy goes as white as a ghost and stammers: "I don't know - I'll take the money."

Chris: Paddy, this question is worth one million pounds! You have three lifelines left."

Paddy is determined, and shakes his head. "Thank you Chris, I've had a wonderful evening, but even with three lifelines, I cannot take a chance. I'll take the money."

"Final answer?"

"Final answer."

"OK ladies and gentlemen. Give him a big round of applause. Patrick Murphy walks away with £500,000.00"

Back home, his brother Sean goes mad.

"Paddy, you idiot! Anybody with half a brain could have told you it was Ronald Biggs. You could have been a millionaire!"

Paddy shakes his head. "Are you out of your mind! Grass somebody up round here, and you're BROWN BREAD!"
