Serious complaint against the production of the game “Who wants to become a millionaire»It came to light through posting on social media. The complainant, Galaniana person with motor disability, argues that he was eventually banned from participating in the game because of his disability, despite being invited to be in the studio.

The presenter of the show, Grigoris Arnaoutoglouhe was placed for the incident, expressing his regret and apologizing for the inconvenience. He made it clear that he was not aware of the incident and that production is solely responsible.

According to Stratis Galanou’s post on Facebook, after stating in the game, in telephone contact with production, he addressed the question: “Have you seen other TV games playing with disabilities?” Despite the initial frustration, he decided to attend shooting. As he complains, the studio infrastructure was completely inappropriate for a wheelchair – there was no ramp and access to the plate was made through stairs.

With the help of his brother he managed to reach the shooting area, but he was informed that he would not be able to participate, because the raised chairs of the players did not allow uniformity in the plan. He proposed alternatives, such as mounting his bodywork in an elevated spot, but production rejected them without a specific justification.

Gregory Arnaoutoglou, referring to the issue, stressed that this is a serious problem due to the technical specifications of the studio and security issues.

“I was very sad. It’s sad to get there and telling him that he can’t play. I didn’t know the incident and, even if I knew it, I couldn’t intervene at that time. I asked and I was told that there were no proper conditions to ensure the player’s safety. “

Although he made it clear that he had no personal responsibility, he apologized. “It wasn’t my fault, but I feel the need to apologize. The issue concerns the production and lack of infrastructure. Such issues have to be resolved once that everyone has equal opportunities. “
