Oh no! Yet another game with a nasty sting in the tail. Hopefully Sunday's game will see the £250k actually remain late into the game and we'll get a big win. Dave was a likeable bloke and looked like he might have a stab at the higher money if it was available to him but unfortunately it never was. When the banker phoned up to up the offer to £12,500, I thought he may have made an offer after every box like he did in Chris' game following a run of bad luck.
Might as well update the stats regarding weekly payouts I posted in yesterday's show thread:
The lowest ever payout in a week is the w/b 26-May-08 with a payout of £33,001 and an average per show of £5,500.17. The total so far this week is £8,480.50 (£4,700.50 excluding Brian's handout), with an average per show of £1,696.10 (£940.10 exc. Brian's handout). So for this week to even just match (and not beat) the worst week ever, Sunday's player needs to win at least £24,520.50 (£28,300.50 exc. Brian's handout).
Doesn't look like it's going to happen at this rate, does it!

I say we put the icing on the cake and create a 1p club member.
