The other answers are incorrect. There is no gift tax in the UK, so the recipient would not pay tax on the gift. The estate of the donor might be liable to Inheritance Tax on the gift if the donor dies within 7 years of making the gift. |

Assuming this question is from the UK most of these answers are wrong. As usual the Americans don't bother to check where the question has originated.
There is no tax on cash gifts, so neither the giver or the receiver will be liable for any tax when the gift is made. However, if the giver dies within 7 years then the gift will be included in the giver's estate and Inheritance Tax could be payable. If this happens it is the recipient of this gift that is liable for any tax due on the gift.
If the giver manages to survive for 7 years there will be no tax at all.
Btw, I mentioned cash gifts above. If the gift was £100,000 worth of property there could be Capital Gains Tax to pay, depending on the precise circumstances of the gift. But that wasn't the question so I'll leave it there. |

Not if the donor lives for seven years after the gift is made. If he dies within that time, the value of the gift increases the value of the estate, although the gift itself doesn't revert.
If the recipient invests the £100,000, he will be liable to tax on any interest received.
Answer for the UK. |

They do if the pay by cheque but I suppose if you transferred the money between accounts then it should be ok. |

Yes, if it is given as a gift, then the recipient must pay a levy on the money. |
