Caption
  • James declined to answer because he didn't know and he had no lifelines left so he walked away with £250,000 saying his guess would be Charles Duke but if he did he would have lost £218,000. The correct answer was A: Jim Lovell.
  • James was the fastest to correctly answer C-D-A-B, making it into the Hot Seat.
  • After this question the klaxon called time and James would return the next saturday on £8,000 with all 3 lifelines.
  • James really didn't know this so he used the first lifeline and phoned his wife, Fiona Pitt Kethley, who gave the answer of Shoemakers but said he should use other lifelines. James went 50:50 which left Shoemakers and Clockmakers, still unsure he asked the audience. 62% said Shoemakers, 38% said Clockmakers. James went for it but before revealing if he was right or wrong Chris took a cliffhanger break. When he came back, it was revealed Shoemakers was correct and he won £250,000. But he had used up all 3 lifelines.
