I can't see this working too well!

If they did get a job within a month or so, what are the chances of getting the money back do you think?

Also I do not believe for a minute that cracking open some champers and throwing notes in the air is something anyone would do unless you'd won the euro millions. £5 bet that the producers wanted those particular shots.
OP (Mr Thickfinger) here

Yes, my mistake.

Must have been in too much of a rush to get to the barbers.

Just thinking about the whole scenario.

If your savings exceed £16K (I think?) you are precluded from claiming benefits.

Don't they have to give £10K back?
