Postkodmiljonären (English translation: The postal code millionaire) is a Swedish game show based on the original British format of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The show is hosted by Rickard Sjöberg. The main goal of the game is to win 1 million SEK by answering 15 multiple-choice questions correctly. There are three-four lifelines - Fifty Fifty (50:50 — femtio-femtio), Phone A Friend (ringa en vän), Ask The Audience (fråga publiken) and Switch the Question on risk format (byta fråga). It is shown every Friday and Saturday from 7:30 PM to 8 PM (UTC+1) on the Swedish commercial television station TV4. When a contestant gets the fifth question correct, he will leave with at least 10,000 SEK. When a contestant gets the tenth question correct, he will leave with at least 100,000 SEK. The programme is also combined with the Swedish Postcode Lottery in a twice-weekly format. The original format of the show, broadcast before 2003, was known as Vem vill bli miljonär? and lacked the lottery tie-in.
