Fastest Finger First has been launched as the teatime edition of the main game show 'Who wants to be a Millionaire.'

Fastest Fingers First: The new edition of the show

Another fan couldn't believe she had been to 86 countries while he couldn't afford a weekend at Blackpool. One displeased viewer added that she was already a Millionaire if she had traveled to 86 countries.

One more fan suggested that she was rich enough to play gamble on any amount she wanted as it would make no difference to her. She had nothing at risk.
