Taobh a-staigh beagan dhiogan, dh'fhaodadh fear no tè a dhol bho bhochdainn gu beartas. Tha na h-uallaich air falbh. Ach gu dè a bhios a' tachairt, an tig bruadair gu bith?

Ann an "Dùbhlain nam Milleanan" chì sinn mar a tha am meas a th' aig an t-sluagh air prògraman leithid "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire," agus an toileachas a thig an cois a bhith a' buannachadh a' sgaoileadh an t-iarratas airson prògraman farpais air feadh an t-saoghail. Tha Big Brother agus the National Lottery ann agus bha earrann ann an TGI Friday far am faodadh farpaisich millean not a bhuannachadh tro bhith a' freagart trì ceistean.

B' e Ian Woodley, athair gun obair, a' chiad fhear a bhuannaich millean not air prògram farpais ann am Breatainn. Chì sinn e 's e ga bhuannachadh. Coinnichidh sinn ris san latha an-diugh agus chì sinn an caitheamh-beatha aige. Coinnichidh sinn ri feadhainn eile a bhuannaich na milleanan agus chì sinn ciamar a tha a' dol dhaibh nam beatha ùr agus mar a bhios iad a' cosg an cuid saibhreas.
