Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (Hong Kong game show)
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire is a Hong Kong game show, based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The show's first host was Kenneth Chan. The main goal of the game is to win HK$1 million by correctly answering 15 multiple-choice questions. There are three lifelines: 50:50, Phone-a-Friend and Ask-the-Audience. It first aired on April 29, 2001. It was broadcast by Hong Kong's ATV.
It is notable in ATV's 58-year history for being one of its few viewership successes over its rival station TVB.
As ATV returned broadcasting as an OTT provider in December 2017, a revival of the show was announced. The new series is hosted by Stephen Chan.
