Kes tahab saada miljonäriks?
Kes tahab saada miljonäriks? (English translation: Who wants to become a millionaire?) was an Estonian game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The show was hosted by Hannes Võrno and ran for six seasons, from 2002 to 2008.[1] The main goal of the game was to win 1 million EEK (€63,912) by answering 15 multiple-choice questions correctly. There were 3 lifelines - "fifty fifty", "phone a friend" and "ask the audience". The final season introduced the Three Wise Men lifeline from the second milestone. The game show was shown on the Estonian TV station TV3. When a contestant got the fifth question correct, they would leave with at least 1,000 EEK. When a contestant got the tenth question correct, they would leave with at least 32,000 EEK.
