Who gets to pull the trigger RR?

Do you send a bill to his family for the price of the bullet?

I can see a new reality TV program in this (Hopefully they will get rid of big brother)
…….Phone in to choose revolver A or B
…….watch as a smartly dressed man wearing white gloves (see I have nothing up my sleeves) loads one shell in the revolver
…….Phone in and press 1 if you want to vote for the first chamber, press 2 if ….. :D

One studio contestant managed to knock herself out while on the toilet. A clergyman who had criticised the show for being unsafe was invited to the studio, only to be hit by a bow that ricocheted off the studio lights. Another stray bolt hit a female contestant, who was saved thanks to her shoulder pads. One contestant couple went for a cup of tea during the live show so the hostess had to grab some quick replacements and introduce them to the unknowing host. And on one famous occasion, as recounted in Bob Monkhouse's autobiography, it was discovered that a phone-in contestant was trying to direct the crossbow from a telephone box and looking across the street into a TV shop. ;D
