He had learned some Greek working in a Greek candy store in Omaha as a soda jerk. In 1949, Billboard magazine reviewer Bill Smith panned his performance in one East Side venue ("saw him take the prize for dullness"), but praised him for the same routines in "Billy Rose's mauve decade nitery": > Givot's act is made up of tolerable singing and corn. The latter, dressed up > with his Greek dialect, takes on a certain kind of freshness.

The first contestant of the show, if any, to have the lights stopped exactly on the secret number won a bonus "super prize" regardless of the outcome of the game. The contestant could end the game after any correct answer and take the prize he or she had based on that question's prize level and the number of lights remaining. For instance, a contestant who answered the 50p question with 20 lights remaining could end the game and take £10 (20 lights times 50p). The contestant's game also ended either when the contestant correctly answered a question at the highest money level or ran out of lights.

In 2003, following an international campaign by the Ukrainian Canadian Civil Liberties Association, the Pulitzer Board began a renewed inquiry, and The New York Times hired Mark von Hagen, professor of Russian history at Columbia University, to review Duranty's work as a whole. Von Hagen found Duranty's reports to be unbalanced and uncritical, and that they far too often gave voice to Stalinist propaganda. In comments to the press he stated, "For the sake of The New York Times honor, they should take the prize away.""N.Y. Times urged to rescind 1932 Pulitzer", retrieved February 2, 2008 The Times sent Von Hagen's report to the Pulitzer Board and left it to the Board to take whatever action they considered appropriate.

In 2003, The New York Times commissioned Von Hagen to study Duranty's role in covering up genocide in Ukraine. He reported that "after reading through a good portion of Duranty's reporting for 1931, I was disappointed and disturbed by the overall picture he painted of the Soviet Union for that period...but after reading so much of Duranty in 1931 it is far less surprising to me that he would deny in print the famine of 1932-1933." The results of the study led him to call for Duranty's Pulitzer Prize to be revoked, remarking to the press that "for the sake of The New York Times honor, they should take the prize away.""N.Y. Times urged to rescind 1932 Pulitzer", retrieved February 2, 2008Coulter, Ann H. Demonic: How the Liberal Mob Is Endangering America.

Immortals can absorb the Quickening of another by taking their head, and so many battle one another in mortal combat to increase their power. Ramírez says that one day when only a few remain they will be pulled to a "faraway land" and fight in the Gathering, where the final survivor will take the Prize: the collected power of all immortals who ever lived, enough power to enslave humanity. In the film's present-day story, the Gathering is now occurring in 1985 in New York City where MacLeod lives as an antique dealer, working alongside his adopted daughter Rachel. The Highlander still lives and must ensure the Prize is not won by The Kurgan (Clancy Brown), the same ruthless immortal who once hunted him and killed Ramírez centuries before.

That lucky person would not be asked any questions but would otherwise participate in the normal bag selection and bidding process. The show also contained a Post Bag segment at the start where viewers across all of New Zealand would mail in a cash bid by post. An entry would be drawn on the show with the "Money or the Bag" process run through until the offer by the presenter exceeded the bid in which case the entrant would take the money, or until the presenter reached a limit and in this case the entrant would take the prize in the bag. In the final 1992 series Post Bag was replaced by Phone Bag contestants now phoned in their bids to an 0900 number prior to the show, an entry was still drawn on each show with the process the same as the Post Bag.
