Were you guys watching the same show?

Little Miss Curious writes: I'm watching 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' on ITV at this very moment - and a couple of minutes ago Chris Tarrant asked the contestant (who was struggling at £2,000) this question: (I think this is it)

'Morrissey' was associated with which band?
a. The Martins.
b. The Smiths.
c. The Joanass'.
d. One I can't remember right now!

Luckily for him, he answered it straight away! Morrissey's bagged him another two thousand pounds! He took the money after that question!

Seamus writes: In tonight's British version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire the question for £8000 was 'What band was the singer Morrissey associated with?'. The contestant responded immediately with the correct answer. Without doubt an easy £8000.

Jason writes: "With which band did the singer Morrissey used to front"?
A The Browns, B The Jones, C The Smiths, D The Clarks
Needless to say, the contestant answered correctly to gain £2000!

    I remember a couple years ago there was a Smiths question on regular Jeopardy here in the United States. The clue was something like, Don't "Panic" if you see this bands lead singer Morrissey ... Anyway, the clue was for $1000 and some black chick got it right.

      same here! (Score:1)
      a couple of years ago on "rock n' roll jeopardy,"
      on vh1, a similar question was asked. the category was "british bands" and the question was worth 800 points. I don't recall, but i think this was the question: "who was the lead singer of the smiths?" Unfortunately, non of these contestants were as "keen" as the contestant in the british version of 'who wants to be a millionaire.'
