Was watching big gamers last night on sky!
basically you had to add these numbers to get the answer, and you call in.
1. Number of days in a leap year
2. Number of minutes in half an hour
3. Number of players in tennis doubles
4. Number of players in a football team
I get the following:
1. 366
2. 30
3. 4
4. 11
= 411
The prize money was 600£ and loads of people rang in with answers most having the same answers and the previous callers ! 
calls were 75p each.
But anyways after the 30mins (3x 10minute countdowns) were up she revealed the answer to 3777!!
This wound me up so much, i couldn't believe how the fuck can you get such a silly answer. I've never been annoyed over a game show!
Worst thing is she never did say how she got 3777!
Can you guys see how she got 3777?

1. Number of days in a leap year
2. Number of minutes in half an hour
3. Number of players in tennis doubles
4. Number of players in a football team
I get the following:
1. 366
2. 30
3. 4
4. 11
so 366 + 30 + 4 + 11 = 3337

Was it worded like that, as if so then the answer is 411.
1. 366
2. 30
3. 4
4. 11
To get 3777 you need to...
1. 366 + 30 = 3366
2. 3366 + 4 = 3766
3. 3766 + 11 = 3777
Now Im not sure exactly how it would be worded to make you add them up that way, but thats the only way to get 3777!

it does, just not in the conventional adding up way, hence why the question must of been worded differently in the first place!
