This short piano solo of mine is an attempt at another British game show theme; the show is called "Breakaway." Hosted by Nick Hancock, the game has 6 players who answer questions as a time moving along a track of 30 (later 25) steps, but at various points, players are given the chance to break away (by pressing the buzzers they hold), in an attempt to win the whole prize pot for themselves.

£1,000 is added to the pot if someone breaks away right off the bat, for a potential maximum of £10,000. Otherwise, the bank begins at zero. £100 is added to the pot for every correct answer given as a team, with wrong answers bankrupting them but not eliminating anybody. If a player is on the breakaway track, correct answers add £400 to the prize pot, while wrong answers eliminate them from the game unless they have a life. (At each breakaway point, Nick asks the players a "who, what, or where" question, with correct answers adding a life to the player's status, as seen on the name tag.) A life protects a player from being eliminated from the breakaway track, and in some cases, can also be sacrificed so that the prize pot isn't reset to zero after a wrong answer.
