The quiz show notched up a record audience and was the most-watched non-news show on TV3 across the day
‘Atrapa’m si pots’, the 3Cat quiz show presented by Llucià Ferrer and produced by THE MEDIAPRO STUDIO, gave away its largest ever cash prize last Thursday. The lucky contestant, Simón Casas answered the five questions correctly in the Final Minute round and took home the record prize with the show also notching up a season’s best audience rating (23.5%) and was the most-watched non-news show on TV3 across the day.
In the last few months, Simón has been up against some formidable rivals with highlights being Bàrbara, who was knocked out on March 10th and more recently, Albert, from Olot who took him all the way. But after the afternoon quiz show on 3Cat has had viewers on tenterhooks, Simón was finally able to answer the vital fifth question which saw him take home the largest prize ever given away on the show.
On Thursday the jackpot stood at 223,000 euros which together with the 18,000 that Simón had accumulated over the different shows, made it a tasty 241,000 euros which the architect from Barcelona ended up taking home. The fifteenth jackpot on ‘Atrapa’m si pots’. Up to then the highest jackpot prize had stood at 81,000 euros from May 2023.
A nervy end, an epic answer and a prize to dream about
Maximum tension. The last question in the final, with everything on the line: “Who were Barça’s opponents on the first ever televised match on TV3? Simón has a think, he’s not sure, he searches his memory…and when the time is about to run out with one second to go, he says: “Osasuna”. The set goes wild, applause, euphoria all around and a Llucià Ferrer who can’t quite believe what he’s just witnessed.
After 50 shows and four times getting right down to the last question to take home the prize, Simon finally brought it home!
