Why didn't the last contestant go for the minus 6k ?

I wouldn't appreciate anyone taking a minus. Play for what you have earned.
Don't worry, postman, Bazille would not have us in his team ;)
Bazile, beg pardon.

In this case there were two contestants left .
One had 40k in his cash builder

She chose not to accept the minus figure of 6k and got knocked out by the chaser , leaving the fella on his own .

Surely 6k off the 40 odd k was the route to go , leaving a better chance of having two in the final chase
And that fella was very bright and did so well on his own. And quick for an older bloke. Great general knowledge.

Indeed he was .

Lost opportunity , I fear
I don't understand the answer to one of the questions. Can someone explain please? The question was which battle was not fought in mainland Europe so I thought it meant the answer would be a sea battle. Anyway, the answer was Culloden which, to my way of thinking, was fought on the mainland. Please put me out of my misery. I feel really dim!!!!
Battle of Culloden. Fought near Inverness in Scotland on 16 April 1746, the Battle of Culloden was the climax of the Jacobite Rising (1745-46). The forces of Prince Charles Edward Stuart, attempting to reclaim the throne for his family, met a British army led by the Duke of Cumberland, son of the Hanoverian King George II.
Kustard, the British Isles aren't on mainland Europe. That would be France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Poland, Hungary ... and all the other countries that physically border them geographically.
Thanks Emmie but I knew all about the battle. I have been there several times but that doesn't answer my question or am I really thick?!!
Oh thank you so much Naomi. I understand now. Obvious when you explain it!!!! I will stand in the corner with my dunce's hat on!!
You're welcome. :o)
The UK is in Europe but as it's surrounded by the sea, it's not part of mainland Europe.

The Isle of Skye is part of Scotland but not part of mainland Scotland.

You'll often see a wee note on websites informing folk that deliveries are made only to mainland UK addresses so not to any of the islands.
