Some formats were technically unlimited from the off, and then had a cap shoved on them. Most obvious example here is 100%, which somebody kept winning and then they kicked him off.
The Weakest Link used to offer (in theory) a jackpot of £10k, though nobody ever got anywhere near that, but most other shows were around the £2/£3/£5k mark at that time, though that seems to have come back towards £10k these days.
Tenable can in theory give away £125k per show, but you'd have to have all your ducks in a row and possibly be a bit jammy as well to get that.
