Getting back on topic, the BBC ran an awful elimination quiz, "2000 to 1", culminating in a grand final on 1999-12-31, which offered the winner a year off work plus double their salary, with (I think) the chance to go round the world and do exciting public-spirited things as well to celebrate the new (not-third) millennium. My old mate (boss) Trevor Montague came second - as he was self-employed at the time, it would have been interesting to see what rate they would have paid him at.
