The problem for The Hit List is it is a BBC show and BBC game shows tend to be stingy on prize money (angry anti licence fee rants from BBC haters) and so generally try to keep their prize fund to low amounts.

I remember there was a little bit of fuss with Michael McIntyre's The Wheel offering £100,000 or more as their big cash prize. In fact it is possible for the luckiest of contestants to pocket over £200,000 on The Wheel

Well you’ve kind of proven the point there. They could do with finding a happy medium for most of their shows. The Wheel & The Wall arguably give/gave prizes that are too high, whereas The Hit List is too low. 

Although, my main gripe isn’t with the amount - more the mechanic which results in the higher end rarely being given away!
