She had revealed herself for what she was, a liar, and therefore didn't deserve the prize.
It was he, after all, who, when his contestants had failed to score sufficient points, would whisk them briefly in front of the prizes they had not won.

 Re: gameshows
Cheers, Gary Peterson One of the new shows on the Gameshow network gave me an idea for formatting my multiple choice quizzes.
There is a show called Inquizition that is a very minimalist gameshow (it is shot in what looks like an old airplane hangar and the guests seldom speak -- the answers to the questions are multiple choice).
Not exactly a game format but it was a change to a testing format based on a gameshow.

 TV Whirl - Gameshows
Countdown is not really a Gameshow with huge Glitzy prizes, yet it remained on Channel 4 since its launch in 1982 until quite recently, being the very first programme ever broadcast by the fledgling station.
This time the show was put on daily at teatime, the traditional slot for killing off popular ITV gameshows, with much smaller prizes, and changed rules.
As usual, ITV decided on their 'lite teatime version, with vastly reduced prizes' idea, which many cynics truly believe was a policy designed to kill off all production from Central's studios in Birmingham.
