Qui veut gagner des millions ? (Who Wants to Win Millions?) is the French version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, which originated in Great Britain on the ITV network. The aim of the game is to win the top prize of €1,000,000 (previously 3 & 4,000,000₣ before France adopted the euro) by answering 12 (formerly 15) multiple-choice questions correctly. It is broadcast on the TF1 network, and is hosted by Jean-Pierre Foucault.
For more info about the show and rules, etc., see Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The money tree differs in amounts, but the format is virtually identical. Just like Kaun Banega Crorepati, the Indian version, the "Switch the Question" lifeline is available once a contestant has answered the 5th question correctly, instead of the 10th. As of April 2009, the money tree eliminated the first three questions, reducing the number of possible questions faced to 12, similar to the new UK format in play from September 2007 to February 2014. For list of international variants of the show, see the List of national variants in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?.
The show served as a plot device in the French film My Best Friend.
