Retired IT consultant Roman Dubowski became the seventh winner of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire during Sunday’s opening episode of the 35th series of the ITV show.
ITV have teased that two contestants will reach the final £1million question in the new series.
Having applied for the show three times over more than two decades, Roman described simply making it onto the programme as an achievement in itself.
He managed to reach the final £1million question with two lifelines remaining, and had one to spare, Ask The Host, as he confidently answered the 15th question within two minutes of seeing it flash up on screen.
It was a shaky start though as the contestant stumbled on the £1,000 question and had to use his Ask The Audience lifeline.
