We are back in action and ready to go! AARON is the first player after the hiatus, and he's playing for a rolling jackpot of £475,000!

As ever, it's a random pick 1-6 for one of the rule variations:

As Serhat shouted just before his final chorus on stage on Saturday night - ÜÇ! (Number 3, please!)

What a reference that is...



Your last game was of this, and that was also its last appearance!

The board (aside from the rolling jackpot and the cascading second prize) is standard...

...but Box 23 certainly isn't. It starts off with MONEY BACK, HALF, and NOTHING... but you get the chance to build on that by getting up to three positive options added on! You get three predictions at any point in the game, and every time you get within 10% of the Banker's offer, you get a positive option added in. If you get within 5%, you'll even get a choice of two - or three if you're ever on the nose!

No risk in the predictions, you can't make 23 any worse, and if it all goes wrong then the good news is that Box 23 is always optional unless you take an offer which forces its use. Or lack of use, for that matter.

You have Box 11 on the table. Five to open in round one as always. GAME ON!

Let's start them with my top 5 from Saturday night:

15, 20, 21, 8 and 7 please! (In the absence of 24, 25 and arguably 26...)

Will your offers go into Zero Gravity, or will we get the CNBC Banker in and leave you complaining "She Got Me?"

Box 15 - £10! Nice start.

Box 20 - £475,000!! Oh. Jackpot rolls over again...

Box 21 - £250 is better...

Box 8 - £20,000 not so much...

Box 7 - 50p gives you the colour balance win at least!

Well he can certainly shut up about that big one going...

Three predictions to use across six rounds. Make your prediction, or make a point of not making one yet...

Yeah let's not have one now. Mr Banker... take it away!

BANKER'S OFFER

£5,000

No-nonsense opening offer there... Deal or No Deal?

Straight in and no I'm not gonna like it... NO DEAL!

On the subject of not (really) liking it, I'll take 4, 6 and 14 please!

Box 4 - £1,000. Not bad!

Box 6 - £5,000, so if this isn't all-red it's very much alright...

Box 14 - £75,000! But it very much is all-red

Surely the Banker is happy now.

Still three predictions left. Time to use one?

It feels like it shouldn't have moved much. But for that very reason he could be playing funny games, so I'll hold back for now...

... nah I won't.

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£3,800

BANKER'S OFFER

£6,500

...wrong move. He very much went the other way! Could this be a second-offer Deal? Your call... Deal or No Deal?

Na Na Na! NO DEAL thank you...

Let's take Duncan, Michela and John please - 12, 1 and 9!

Box 12 - £500, so that pick was a winner!

Box 1 - £50! Can we get the ABR?

Box 9 - £100! We can!

That'll change your situation in a hurry.

With two predictions left, you now have to decide how confident you are with how far he's gone up!

I think we may be sort of hovering around the £10k mark now. Let's try...

PLAYER'S PREDICTION

£10,450

Thinking it's hovering around the £10k mark?

BANKER'S OFFER

£10,000

It's ON the £10k mark! That's in the 5% band, so you get a choice of one of these two options...

BONUS
QUADRUPLE

The BONUS is the better of +£5,000 and ADD HALF.
