For some reason I find myself watching old episodes of who wants to be a millionaire.

Anyway, I was thinking, if my friend got on the show and he used me as a phone a friend, and say I got the queston correct which won him, say £100,000, would be be wrong of me to feel that I should get a little 'somin somin'?

Would you ask or would you wait till he offers?

I mean if it was me I would atleast give, £5000 as a thankyou.

And what's to to stop me from doing a quick ninja google search to get the answer?
 
I'd give him 10k without batting an eye lid but if I was the friend on the phone I wouldn't expect anything, If offered though I would take it in a Flash & go by my Grandson visiting camper :D
 
If I answered the question correctly because a friend helped me I'd definitely give him some cash. I wouldn't think of asking or expect any sort of cash from someone if I helped them though.
 
i always think whats to stop the phone a friend googling the question whilst the contestant is considering whether to phone a friend or not.

This really makes me wonder too!!

surely when you know your friend is going in the show you would be told to stay home. I'd be preped and have 100 tabs of google opened.
 
Question, did your friend ACTUALLY win £100,000? Or is this just a test? :p

I agree with an above post, wait a day for a reward, if nothing happens, just hint or threaten if you fancy it :p

I wish it actually happened!!

I wouldn't be asking for the money, I'd be taking it! MAFIA StyLEE
 
I'd formulate an agreement over the phone, as they are asking me the question I'd say "Ah ah, stop right there - what's in this for me?" If they ignore or say there's bugger all for me then they've just wasted a lifelife.

"I definitely know the answer, we just need to negotiate a deal"
"we dont have time, give me the answer we can sort this later!!"
"4..3..2..1"
