Cash Cab

Cash Cab was a game show created in the United Kingdom where contestants request the cab driver to go to a destination they want to go, but they have to answer questions in order to get to their destination as well as a cash prize.

The show was mentioned most prominently on the "Have A Word" podcast episode #377. Host and comedian Adam Rowe lamented the ending of this British classic gameshow, and expounded his childhood plans for how he would swindle the cabby should he appear as a contestant. Rowe stated he would recognise the cab driving host (Les Dennis) and ask him to them to Plymouth, hoping to answer many questions and earn a large prize pot. It is understood Adam planned to use his winnings to more widely advertise his public campaigning work, largely focusing on Zoë's place, McDonald's workers rights, and Les Dennis' secret identity.
