Overview

• RTL scheduled the four-night “3-Millionen-Euro-Woche” from October 6 to 9, with the final airing on October 9 on RTL and streaming on RTL+.
• Final qualification required at least €16,000 in the preliminaries, and finalists had to give up part of earlier winnings to play for up to €3,000,000.
• Annalena Ziege from Jena hastily locked in Qantas at €64,000, immediately asked to undo the entry, was told it was not possible, and the answer was confirmed correct.
• Her attempt ended at the €125,000 question, leaving her with €64,000 and out of the running for the top prize.
• In a separate moment, Günther Jauch wrongly singled out a woman as the audience lifeline outlier, later apologized on air, and discreetly handed her a banknote after locating the actual voter.
