The most memorable feature is the dancing showgirl in a yellow sequinned fringed costume with both arms flung up, standing beside a man in a plum jacket and white trousers with his palms turned out in a showman pose, on a cabaret stage framed by a blue scalloped curtain. A second striking element is the left-hand score ladder: a stack of eight coloured boxes counting down 900.000 to 100.000, with a second slim column of tilted white card-shaped markers numbered 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 each captioned MILLION. Third is the huge curving yellow POINTS panel that sweeps up from the bottom centre like a comma, with the number 2 printed low on it. Fourth is the red-haired showgirl in a strapless red sequinned dress at the right edge, holding a fan of playing cards.

Illuminated rectangular backglass in a cartoon style, framed by wooden cabinet edges. The top third is a hot-pink/magenta swag banner with a jagged zig-zag lower edge carrying the main title in big yellow block letters with a white outline, curved upwards over the arch, with a small white-and-gold name above it. The left quarter is a vertical column of eight boxed score panels stacked from top to bottom, alternating yellow and red numerals on coloured plates, paired with a second slim column of tilted white playing-card-shaped markers reading 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 each followed by the word MILLION in small caps. The centre and right show a cabaret stage framed by a blue scalloped curtain: a dancing showgirl in a yellow sequinned costume with a fringed skirt stands centre with both arms raised, beside a man in a plum jacket and white trousers holding his arms out palms-up as if presenting her. Behind them is a striped stage platform, two small pedestal tables, a framed card motif and a flower bowl. A large red-haired woman in a strapless red sequinned dress sits at the right edge holding a fan of playing cards. Lower centre is a big curved yellow POINTS panel, and lower left a second yellow POINTS arrow shape, a red-and-white DOUBLE AWARD panel and two grinning jester heads in pointed orange caps.
