    What are the bets he'll ring the brother for a phone-a-friend?

    We all knew it was coming..

    .. but the absolute confidence and intelligence shown throughout was something else entirely.

    Well deserved!

    I was sure that he’d ring him just to say that he was about to win a million!

    Very good quizzer and luck was with him, as you need. The half million pound question is a fairly regular quiz one, strange for that money. Really delighted for him and his family.

    They really had to have a winner to keep people interested.

    I particularly like the fact that he had to tell Clarkson how many had previously won the million:D

    Donald was a terrific winner to win the £1 Million. I have been avoiding the news articles about it earlier today to ignore the win until tonight's big win. It's a shame that his family were not there in the studio audience to see him win it. It would have been terrific scenes to see him giving them a big hug after winning the Jackpot. It's been wonderful night for this guy. I wish Donald a hearty congratulations & well done. He was superb.

    I would have pretended I didn't know the answer and asked the host!

    It was brilliant to watch.

    The minute he said his brother won 500,000 near the start myself + my husband were like ohhhhh he could be good!

    He is a teacher + wife a nurse so certainly not millionaires. Great to see people like that who are public servants winning money like that.

    Seems so down to earth. He will be a legend now in his school!

    He is the head off Donald Pleasance.

    In fairness as a history and politics teacher he couldn't have asked for an easier series of questions.
    Up to 16k the questions were all very easy.
    The 50/50 took away the closest answer to the correct one.

    Not one modern pop culture , music, literature, sport, science or technology question.

    Seems like a very nice fellow though.

    Had to laugh at the end when he even answered how many jackpot winners there had been on the show ...........there was a touch of Rainman about him

    The questions really did fall his way which even he admitted. ITV wanted a millionaire winner and it was leaked all to boost ratings but it was enjoyable to watch all the same.

    Just watched it now. What a likeable chap and a real slumdog feel about the questions!

    I suppose a measure of the man that he didn't phone his brother to tell him was going to beat him.

    I am beginning to wonder if this is a clever fix by the programme makers to boost ratings ?? It all seems a bit too good to be true ?
