Here' a copy/paste, that's about the gist of it thou as far as I can see.

Viewers tuning in to watch last Friday's show saw husband and wife Johnny and Dee asked who was the longest-serving actor to play Doctor Who and were given the choice of Sylvester McCoy, Paul McGann, David Tennant and Christopher Eccleston.

The couple split the £650,000 they had left between McCoy and McGann, but lost everything when the answer was revealed to be Tennant.

But Channel 4 investigated the show after viewers contacted the Million Pound Drop to point out that the question was misleading as Tennant portrayed the Doctor for the longest uninterrupted stint between 2005 and 2009, but McCoy had played the role for two years between 1987 and 1989, as well as appearing in the TV film released in 1996.

Since nobody had played the role of the Time Lord between 1989 and 1996, the correct answer was in fact McCoy.

Channel 4 on Tuesday confirmed that the duo will now get a second chance to play this weekend.

One day I shall come back. Yes, I shall come back. Until then, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go forward in all your beliefs and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine.
