Andreas' game today.

Noel talks about the huge investment some contestants make even before they appear on the show, working at systems, and some even practicing their box opening skills! He then goes over to Aby who the Banker says he caught practicing her box opening in her bedroom!!

Andreas has box 19 today. Andreas is from North London and is a labour market recruitment consultant, he registered visually impaired and tells Noel a little about his condition and tells says that it is not curable at the moment and has been told it will just get worse He is hoping to win enough today to help to sponsor a guide dog.

We get to see a few of Andreas' pics... Andreas says Noel can call him Andy or Andreas as he will answer to both



Here we go...

Ahhhhhh yes, there was soooo much more to this exchange between Noel and Aby. I think a lot of good material ended up on the cutting room floor but hey this is a family show. Go for it Andreas!! This will be blinding, innit!

First game in ages that I haven't watched yet (and still aren't watching it till later). Looking forward to this. I think if everyone who was recently on the show were asked who the nicest guy was, Andreas will be up there with the best. Top bloke and I hope it goes right for him!!!!

My last post was a bit unclear. Basically, I wasn't part of this game, nor was I in the green room, so all this is new to me!!!

What does that mean Clare?

Andreas thinks that is OK at the moment... Noel tells the Banker that there is a great atmosphere at the moment... The Banker has received a picture today, and it is a drawing of the Banker with a rather drained looking Noel... It has been sent in by Vince Goodwin, and Noel thanks him for such a great picture


Banker's offer:

£9,100

What a fantastic drawing!

£9,100 is fair, given the 10p and 50p have both gone with another blue, and only one real hit...

Andreas says

NO DEAL

I'll tell you when I see you!!

Round 2

Mavis next, and she gets in another Nolly comment

15 - £1,000 Mavis

Den next and Noel winds him up about looking like Postman Pat

22 - £500 Den

Noel calls a break....

All going splendidly thus far!

We're back

This is good at this point says Noel, and tells Andreas not to worry... Noel tells the Banker that Andreas is still in a strong position...

Banker's offer:

£13,500

Right of Noel to do that to the newbie Cheri!

NOBODY tells someone to deal at the second offer and get away with it, especially if it's their first show!
