Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Viewers were delighted that a competitor walked away with £ 125,000 thanks to his phone lifeline a friend on Sunday.
Elementary school teacher Dylan Price, from Margate, wowed audiences at home after leaving the competition with the incredible prize for the last episode of the ITV season.
The avid golfer, who planned to help pay off his parents’ mortgage with his winnings, got £ 125,000 after correctly answering this question: “What famous plane is also known as the Stratofortress? “
Dylan had four answers to choose from, including the Boeing B-52 bomber, the Hawker Hurricane, the Lockheed SR-71 “Blackbird” or the Avro Lancaster bomber.
However, Dylan didn’t know the answer and so used the last of his four lifelines to call his airplane enthusiast friend Michael, who correctly told him to choose the Boeing B-52 bomber.
Dylan then walked away from the competition with his winnings, fearing that he would not be able to successfully answer the next question.

Dylan scoured the first few questions to quickly earn £ 1,000 before taking calculated risks with his lifelines to reach his total.
Presenter Jeremy Clarkson helped the contestant along the way, helping him successfully decide that David Cronenberg directed the cult classic film The Fly.
As Dylan made it through the series of questions, he was left with a lifeline to help him get £ 125,000.
Host Jeremy asked, “Which famous plane is also known as the Stratofortress?”, With the following response options: “A: Boeing B-52 bomber; B: Hawker Hurricane; C: Lockheed SR-71 “Blackbird” or D: Avro Lancaster bomber. “

“But I have a friend, Michael, on my phone-friend list and he’s a huge fan of the military. So, I don’t know the answer.
“He’s also important in history, very important in WWII, he knows a lot about tanks. Tanks are his thing, hope it goes to planes. So I’ll call Michael please. ”
Michael told him to choose the Boeing B-52 bomber for the answer, adding that he was “99%” sure. “Now that’s enough for me, let’s go straight with A. Final answer,” Dylan said.
Host Jeremy responded, “I’d love to be able to shake your hand. That’s the correct answer, you have £ 125,000. “
Before walking away with his prize, Dylan was asked the following question, worth a quarter of a million pounds, which asked: “What architect born in 1664 designed Blenheim Palace and Castle Howard?” “
Dylan (pictured) had a choice of four responses including Boeing B-52 bomber, Hawker Hurricane, Lockheed SR-71 “Blackbird” or Avro Lancaster bomber
However, Dylan (pictured) not knowing the answer, so used the last of his four lifelines to call his airplane enthusiast friend Michael, who correctly told him to choose the Boeing B-52 bomber.
The four response options were “A: Christopher Wren B: Inigo Jones C: John Vanbrugh D: Charles Barry”. Dylan was quick to admit, “Part of me is pretty happy because I’m not sure.”
“Didn’t Christopher Wren redesign some buildings after the Great Fire in London, unless he did so at the age of two?”
But the player confessed that he was distracted by the amount of money he had already accumulated and decided to take his winnings and leave.
“My head is just thinking about the fact that I’m about to take £ 125,000… I don’t have enough knowledge in my head not to even spit, so I’m going to take the money!”
Reaction: Impressed viewers were delighted for the teacher, calling him “really nice” as he took home his winnings.
Impressed viewers were delighted for the professor, calling him “really nice” as he took home his winnings.
“Come in Dylan! Top man! Designed for you, buddy, ”one viewer wrote on Twitter. Another said: “I loved the elementary school teacher who just took £ 125,000. “
A third added: “I love it when a really nice guy gets a big amount of money, well done. “
But it wasn’t just Dylan’s impressive knowledge that got people talking after the Sunday show – viewers also pointed out the candidate’s drinking habits.
The professor seemed to constantly drink from his glass of water from the start. “There will now be a commercial break so the production team can fill their glass with water,” one spectator joked.
