The box, which was supposed to contain 250,000 pounds -- about $500,000 -- was found to be empty after it was chosen by contestant David Schofield, a vicar at St Luke's Church in Dukinfield, England, The Daily Mail reported Wednesday. Advertisement The show said the error, the first in game history, occurred when the independent adjudicator accidentally neglected to put the money into the box. Schofield, who said his "guardian angel" must have been watching out for him, was given a second chance at the jackpot after the boxes were reshuffled. Show producers were mum about how the game turned out for the vicar, whose episode is scheduled to air Wednesday. However, Schofield offered a hint at the outcome: "I did do very, very nicely. I didn't have any sum in mind when I went on the show," he said.
