    Will this be a new, regular feature on the show and do you do requests? I'm a big fan of 'the Monty Hall problem'.

    A player who stays with the initial choice wins in only one out of three of these equally likely possibilities, while a player who switches wins in two out of three. The probability of winning by staying with the initial choice is therefore 1/3, while the probability of winning by switching is 2/3.

    Indeed. The natural reaction is to think it's 50/50, but what you say above is correct. It blew my mind when I first read about it.

    Yes you do.

    It only works if you add your birth year to the age you will BE this year. In other words, if you haven't had tour birthday yet it adds up to 110.
