Ben Affleck and Jeopardy! champion Jamie Ding won the $1 million top prize on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, playing for Affleck’s Eastern Congo Initiative. The win makes Affleck the fifth celebrity and the 18th contestant overall to secure the programme’s highest prize, providing funds for an organisation working during an Ebola crisis.

The pair answered questions spanning popular culture, history and science, using the audience lifeline for a McDonald’s question and host Jimmy Kimmel for the final question about US presidentially pardoned turkeys. Affleck answered the $250,000 question alone, while the pair worked together on the $500,000 and $1 million questions.
