is one of the most popular in the history of television, broadcast, with small breaks, for 25 years on TVN. During this time, only seven participants managed to win the main prize, as most of them are eliminated quite early in the game. This group includes Mr. Waldemar Jabłoński from Lublin, who ended his adventure with the program with a question for a thousand zlotys in the New Year’s Eve episode in 2000.
He chose the correct answer and was eliminated from “Millionaires”. His complaint was not accepted
When he asked Mr. Waldemar about the number of cuts on the Kaiser roll, he said without hesitation that there were four. Although he was convinced that he already had the guaranteed thousand zlotys in his pocket, the computer indicated that there were five cuts, which meant he had to end the game. He was surprised, but he didn’t argue his point in the video. Dissatisfied with the result and convinced that he had been treated unfairly, after returning home he began to dig into various sources in search of the right answer. – At home, I studied the source materials again and made sure that I was right, and not the computer – in “Gazeta Wyborcza”.
He then wrote a complaint to the producers of “Millionaires”, in which he argued his position, citing many different sources. The Commission rejected his application, stating that, according to the terminology used in the baking industry, he was wrong.
The sources you cited say that kaiserka is a roll cut crosswise, but the term “crosswise” should be taken as a symbolic rather than a literal one. No kaiser rolls are cut crosswise because the cuts are arcuate and there are no crosscut kaiser rolls on sale.
– in a statement. Mr. Waldemar tried several times to resolve the matter amicably, but in vain. Finally, he decided to fight for justice in court. How did he do?
The “Millionaires” participant filed a lawsuit against the production. How was the Kaiserka dispute resolved?
The court battle over Kaiser cheese between Mr. Waldemar and the producers was followed by all of Poland. Many believed that the participant would end it victorious, because in all encyclopedias the definition coincides with the answer he indicated in the program. To everyone’s surprise, this did not happen.
The court stated that in this case the producers were right and the entire process was groundless. Despite this, the man got another chance to appear on the game show and finish the game. Although he was left with a bad taste, he took advantage of the offer. Ultimately, it was in vain, because this time he was eliminated before winning the guaranteed thousand zlotys.
