Would you know the answer?Credit: ITVTourism officer Amy Heliwell will take to infamous hot seat in tonight’s episode.

During her game, Amy from Stroud comes up against a tricky motorsport question.

She is asked: “The motorsport event originally known as the Paris-Dakar Rally moved to which country in 2020?”

The options are A) Argentina, B) Saudi Arabia, C) Portugal and D) Algeria.

Amy revealed she had a logical guess in mind, but wasn’t certain enough to go with it.

Faced with losing thousands of pounds, she has to be careful not to answer incorrectly.

Having already used two lifelines, Amy opts to utilise her Phone A Friend.

She calls up her friend Lewis – described by Amy as being a motorsport fan.

But as he doesn’t know the answer either, she is left stuck in the same predicament.

To see how Amy fares, watch the episode tonight on ITV1 at 8pm.

It comes as other contestants have been left heartbroken after losing out on thousands of pounds.

A recent episode saw Paul Sharpe make his way up the board to £64,000 with a £32,000 safety net.

And he had the potential to win another £93,000 when he made it to the £125,000 question.

He was asked: “Which of these is not the name of a US state capital?”

Paul was given the options: A) Lincoln, B) Richmond, C) Cambridge or D) Dover.

Who has won the jackpot on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire has offered hundreds of hopeful contestants the chance to become millionaires, but there has only been a handful of lucky winners.

There have only been five real winners so far on the show as Charles Ingram, who was the third winner of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? in 2001, had his claim to the prize thrown out because of cheating allegations.

The official winners are…

Judith Keppel

• In 2000, garden designer Judith Keppel made quiz show history as she became the first ever winner of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. Judith is also the only woman ever to have won the million-pound prize.

David Edwards

• Former physics teacher David became the second contestant to win the top prize in April 2001. Following his success, Edwards went on to compete in both series of Are You an Egghead? in 2008 and 2009.

Robert Brydges

• Oxford-educated banker Robert became the third Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? champion when he won the quiz show several moths after David in 2001. Robert has stayed out of the limelight since his win.

Pat Gibson

• World champion Irish quiz player Pat won the show in 2004. Amazingly Pat had TWO of his lifelines still available for his final question, something no other winner has managed.

Ingram Wilcox

• Ingram came close to losing on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? in 2006 as he had used all his lifelines up at the £32,000 mark, but in a shocking twist he went on to scoop the jackpot.

He was stumped on the question, telling Jeremy: “I’m pretty sure that Cambridge is the state capital of Massachusetts.”

Opting to use his Phone A Friend, who advised Dover, Paul went for this as his answer.

Unfortunately, it turned out to be incorrect as the answer was actually Cambridge.

Who Wants to be a Millionaire airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
