Players race against the clock without any lifelines. A correct answer moves the game up the money ladder, while a wrong answer knocks the contestant out and reduces the jackpot. They can also pass, sending them to the back of the queue and forcing the next player to tackle the same question. Jeremy has previously likened the format to “a very expensive game of musical chairs”. Millionaire Hot Seat airs tonight at 7.30pm on ITV1 and ITVX and continues every weeknight. Comment now
