The Banker is speechless... He left a wrong formula somewhere in his spreadsheet :shock: :shock: That conditional offer was supposed to be £15,800 + NO BOX 23...

... but people make mistakes, including him. He says he has no choice but to HONOUR that offer - so congratulations Ben, you took advantage whilst he was getting carried away!

Let's, erm, play on... :lol: :lol: Where would we have gone next?! What a cock-up from the Banker this is!!

Amazing. Ben made the iconic mistake in my series as the April Fool banker and now benefits from a mistake the other way. ;)

14 - £3,000
12 - £100
10 - £10,000

10p / £1 / £10 / £12,500 / £75,000...

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£9,400

OR

BANKER'S OFFER
WOULD'VE BEEN

£21,500 & NO BOX 23


The final round...

8 - £10
6 - £12,500 Would have left it all or nothing...
4 - 10p!

It'd have been £1 or £75,000 at this incredible stage in the game...

"We all make mistakes, Ben. But make sure you don't make a mistake here..."

BANKER'S OFFER

BANKER'S CONDITIONAL GAMBLE

WHAT a position to be in here... The only condition here is that if you crash to £1, you cannot use it on Box 23. Win the other one though, and you're on for up to £150,000 RISK FREE...

Ben... Banker's conditional Gamble... Deal or No Deal?

VERY interesting decision. Question is would I take £35,000 on a £1/£110,000 (rough average of the Box 23 outcomes) on this finish? :ponder:

The answer is...

....... yes, so NO DEAL to the gamble. :)

Would've NO swapped.


Option 3 for Box 23.

You KEEP the money! I'm sure the Banker's relieved in a way regardless, but let's see if he was right to offer that...


Box 21 held £10 in it!! Great choice :D Box 2 was the £75,000 which would've eluded you!

Option 3 would've been +£35,000 funnily enough - but you caught the Banker off guard and won the very same card all to yourself - thanks for playing! :D

The Banker may need to have a lie down for a while...

Well the error made for some fun at the end. ;)

(I would also have done the same there, I'd value that £1/"£75k+" in the high twenties I think.)
