The show began with a jackpot of 10 million Belgian francs. Only one contestant, Katia Savignano on 4 June 2001, won the jackpot in the entire history of the show.[1] Starting from 31 December 2001, the jackpot became €1,000,000, roughly four times as much as before.[2] The series reached peaks of 700,000 viewers, a 40% market share.
In June 2005, it was announced that the show would not return for autumn, having already been put earlier in the schedule due to the success of Lost.[3] It remained off air until it was announced in July 2008 that it would return.[4] Running from 8 September to 13 October, it received an average audience of 379,000 (21.7% market share).[5]
