iv'e noticed when people are left with amounts like 1p, £5 and £10 there praying they don't win 1p why is this? is it because they don't want to be embarrassed by winning the lowest possible amount or what?

Probably. It's also a surefire way to get remembered - Noel loves talking about the members of the 1p club! £5, £10 etc. winners aren't as well-remembered....while I'd rather get 1p, I suppose lots of players who've had bad games just want to put it behind them!

I agree, i would preferre to become a memeber of the 1p club because you will be more famous

There won't be much fame in the 1p club soon, Noel won't even remember all the names before long.

There's probably more chance of you being remembered for accepting a comedy very low offer at the end (and you would get a pint from Geordie as well of course!)
