I was bitterly disappointed that Secret Millionaire was not on tonight!!! What a brilliant show. I always wonder why on earth it's not shown at primetime instead of 9.30pm. Really hope there's a new series in the making! And really hope tonight's missed episode will be screened soon! And really hope Danny Wallis from last week will find a lovely partner soon too. What a gem. And for all those poor, hard-hearted cynics out there - come ON - this is good stuff! It doesn't glorify the millionaires. They just come across as good eggs doing good stuff. Do I detect a whiff of tall poppy syndrome???

Who wants to see Fergie ? Put Secret Millionaire on. Only one more show. What are you thinking channel nine ???? Thought Leanne Wesche was on ????

Just wondering why there is a different program advertised for next Thursday at 9.30 pm when Leanne Wesche is scheduled ???? Could someone please clarify this as I can't wait to see the next episode....

I know that there's just one episode left, why Nine can't just show the last remaining episode rather than delaying it for don't know when and opted to show Fergie's estate mission instead. This show flopped in the UK so I don't know if this will be of any help with SM's core audience considering that the numbers isn't really that spectacular to start with?

Am looking forward to seeing the episode with Leanne Wesche. When will that be screened. I have seen the project she was involved in and it is truly incredible. It really should be shared with the public

In reference to the comment that the Secret Millionaires are given money by Channel Nine - that is completely incorrect. All the Secret Millionaires access their own funds and give generously to those they feel they can help. All the Australian Secret Millionaires were sincere and genuine in their mission and many have stayed in touch with their recipients, continuing to support them both financially and emotionally.

Hmmm of Melbourne, just so you know our wonderful millionaire is still heavily involved in our project and we have daily contact even though she is in W.A. We have received further funding and have formed a wonderful friendship. Some may appear to be too business like in the show, but at the end of the day, they could have said no and kept all their money when Ch 9 approached them. What an honour and blessing to have met Leanne Wesche. This was as much a journey for her as it was for us.

Following last night's show (5 November) Baptist Community Services - NSW & ACT (BCS) would like to thank Channel Nine's Secret Millionaire and Danny Wallis for the generous time and moneythat was donated to BCS Darcy House in Port Kembla. Without such support, the life-transforming care BCS Darcy House provides would not be possible. For anyone interested in further contributing to the work of BCS Darcy House, we invite you visit www.bcs.org.au and follow the BCS LifeCare links to BCS Darcy House (Community Centre).

Oh, come on people! This show makes me so cross. It's not about battlers, it's not about people struggling, it's all about the 'millionaire' and how fantastic he or she is for doing such brilliant things. Aren't they fantastic. Aren't they so generous. Shouldn't those poor people be on their knees, saying what terrific people rich people are? Look, if you want to do good things in the community, just do them. Give the money, walk away, feel good inside yourself and say nothing to anybody. That's real generosity. The question to ask is whether the millionaire is still down at that soup kitchen or homeless shelter months after the episode is over, helping out. Are they? Thought not.

this show is unbelievable it has touched so many peoples hearts and its truly amazing that these people come in their own time and spend it with others in need and share what they have.. To the millionaires this is incredible and yous should be realy proud many people around the world are shore proud of you.. I most definitely am thanks for everything you do for these people who cant find any other option and you have given it to them a new road can begin for every one..
