Oli Is Defeated By A Novel I Full Round | Who Wants To Be A Millionaire

[@kingofrivia1248]

There is nothing wrong with trusting the audience BUT NEVER talk about the options before asking.

[@carlicker]

Also never use 50/50 before asking the audience.

[@FuckFeminists]

And maybe - if for some reason you're allowed on the show with such privilege - don't tell them that you A. Work in the City in the very overpaid corporate world, B. Can already afford to holiday in Belize, C. Can already afford to holiday in Australia. Not exactly Slumdog Millionaire, is it.

[@johnhewett9483]

i agree and also do NOT do a fifty fifty first, better to give 4 options to them, they either know it or they dont. it would split the guesses up more

[@diegoluisavolonta338]

I agree, it clouds their judgement

[@brewtal85]

Also, the opening line sounds a lot more like a spy novel than a horror-esque novel if you have read neither but know the gist of each book.

[@govand7]

People always talk about “Spoilers in the title”, but the length of the video gives you a pretty good idea of how far a contestant will go

[@andriuscibas]

You sure?

[@thandoximba446]

Yup. It builds more curiosity and it doesn't guarantee that the contestant will take home a big amount of money. Like in this episode.

[@andriuscibas]

​@@thandoximba446cool story bro

[@Dialmi4Hotdogs]

For that reason I immediately switch to full screen.

[@AC-sd6fo]

Easier to not look at the time

[@sambomcl]

Yaaay, back to putting a spoiler in the title. And I don't look at the timer - for that reason.

[@PascoZach]

Dracula is an epistolary novel, which is a book made up of letters and diary entries. The clue reads like a diary entry.

[@FuckFeminists]

Oliver is an overpriveliged yuppy. The clues are his job, his suit and his far-flung holiday habits. That might have been more relevant to the audience.

[@glr4275]

Dracula by Bram Stoker not Mary Shelley

[@johnnyonenote376]

Yes, he's getting his Franks and his Dracs mixed up...

[@MrCorky911]

That was diabolical... Why do I have a feeling the 50/50 is not random at all and that a sociopath is in charge of choosing which options get left over?

[@nathanbabiuk6286]

Its not random

[@warhammer8230]

@@nathanbabiuk6286 Nah it's random. Jeremy said it before in one of the older videos. Can't trust his words completely though

[@nathanbabiuk6286]

@warhammer8230 just because he says it's random doesn't mean it actually is

[@warhammer8230]

@@nathanbabiuk6286 Agree. That's why I said it like that above

It's definitely not random. 90% of the time it's not in favor of the one playing.

STOP. PUTTING. FREAKING. SPOILERS. IN. THE. TITLES.

[@ThePierre58]

Great upload, and thanks for a clever title to the video.

[@Louis-o6e]

Seems like a smart guy but he made a poor decision asking Jeremy on the Agincourt question

[@thefoxhat6163]

I saw this on TV. When he said he'd ask the audience, I commented "No more than 20% of the audience will know".

[@nathanbabiuk6286]

You have tv still

[@thefoxhat6163]

@@nathanbabiuk6286 Do I? I'll assume you haven't been in my house recently. Maybe you're just too stupid to work out it's a clip shown on YT from a much longer programme broadcast on ITV/STV a while ago.

[@antzooma]

wow you saw this on tv unbelievable, make sure you get an award for this

[@Goodyearmonkey]

I knew the last answer because I’ve seen the play version and know it opens like a diary

[@johndanvers2379]

Only ask the audience on pop culture questions. Not literature

[@dolomiti850]

Have the audience ever been that wrong before - 80% for the wrong answer?

[@marcuscook3852]

Yes.

[@indexpictures]

dracula required some lateral thinking. anyone who has read it or watched an adaptation knows it opens with the diary entries of a finance junior on a train to romania to meet the count. i believe the journey starts in london, but munich is in the far south of germany & the germans built most of the rail infrastructure into the balkans - ie. munich would be a feasible stop on a journey from london to transylvania. whereas heart of darkness, why would a book set on the congo river start in munich, which is not a port. TTSS was a reasonable guess (the one of the four i never read) but munich was not cold war contested like ie. berlin was quite an easy 250k question if you know what the books concern

[@antzooma]

I knew this because I knew it wasnt Tinker Tailor. I looked it up and Bistritz is Transylvania so I guess that would give you a clue if you knew

[@FuckFeminists]

So looking it up would give you a clue? You'd better tell the contestants, could be a huge help...

[@cgk2859]

never go with the audience on anything besides the first 5 questions

[@9k49]

Ask the audience can be good for certain questions (I’ve seen 60% of them get a Q14 right before - Mark Kerr’s run). However novels are fairly niche, ATA is better for ‘pop culture’ like film, TV, music etc.

[@warhammer8230]

Nah more often then not they are correct. Ever heard wisdom of the crowd?

[@joewas2225]

They clearly wanted to troll him & it worked out.

[@christopherdavison4400]

More like Oli is defeated by his own influence on the audience.

[@outdoorsy01]

If they don't know, they select A. If it's an question you know hardly anyone will know thw answer too, and you ask the audience, and A has been chosen by everyone, it's because they have no idea. Select 2nd highest. Unless it was A, then you're screwed.

[@antzooma]

the audience didn't know but they picked A because it sounds like a diary from a spy novel

[@brewtal85]

@@antzooma exactly, nothing to do with the letters before the question. One sounds like the diary entry a spy might take.

[@MariaWerner-sf1ef]

It’s incomprehensible to me how many British contestants freeguess away enormous amounts of money! 😮 It never happens in Sweden! Take your money and go if you’re not sure for God’s sake! 125 000 GBP is a lot of money, and you gambled it all away…

[@DidYaServe]

Ask the audience isn't worth anything towards the end. I knew it was Dracula because I read it years ago and remember it started with a journal entry about Jonathan Harker traveling east to Transylvania.

[@streetspirit956]

The audience should be told they should only vote if they are 100% sure of the answer and certainly no guessing.

[@awwboiz]

They all have to vote

[@joewas2225]

1) They all have to. 2) They clearly wanted to troll him & that worked out.

[@sammayet9002]

Well played, took it very cool, audience took him down 😢😢😢😢

[@russellmcphee72]

I am only a few minutes in and Oli is getting really irritating by justifying every answer.

[@tonestones9445]

Yes mate, l kept waiting for someone to cough when he was trawling through each answer over and over. FFS give the others chance to get on.

[@marctang3802]

Poor gameplay at the end. Influenced the audience by talking through his thoughts, and used 50:50 before asking the audience.

[@FuckFeminists]

Perhaps. Or because being asked by a jet-setting City boy to help him with big money when they can't afford to buy a home made them a little bit sick...

[@joysynmonds9082]

When unsure, take the money!

[@Gilmore74]

81% of the audience! Thats what made him sure.

[@joewas2225]

​@@Gilmore74 Because they were like me & wanted to troll him clearly & it worked out. He even said Dracula was in Romania. He's right but it doesn't start there.

Grammatically, should the century question's answers be written 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th? Not 00s...

[@smetja]

1300s are the 14th century, etc.

[@antzooma]

there's nothing wrong with the grammar, so no

[@FuckFeminists]

No, that system is idiotic and unnecessarily confusing.

[@Atif_Ph.D._Kate_Bush_Fan_Club]

Never EVER trust the audience.

[@MickisQuagmire]

Hate that.

[@georgelee305]

Why can't people who really know the answer only answer snd the ones that don't just dont press anything

[@joewas2225]

Why can't you realize that the audience did that on purpose?

[@georgelee305]

@joewas2225 you mean they wanted him to lose 😕
