Not a great round, but average is still ~£33,000 due to keeping the £250,000 in play. £7,000 is trash and should be instanodealed.

It's been a long time since some one brought a power 5 to the table. Couple of weeks yeh ?
Surely she has brought one?

Mel says that £7,000 is a lot of money, but is not enough to do what she wants

Mel says

NO DEAL

Round 4

1 - £250,000 Pauline - opened by Shell

19 - 1p Rich


Noel points to Rich and says that he has changed colour and gone red after the 1p kiss

Mel calls the break....

We're back
Last box before the Banker


4 - £35,000 Lamin


Banker time

Noel shouts at Lamin and asks what is wrong with him as he has done it again!

Banker's offer:

£3,500

Mel says that she is a student in her 2nd year and by the end of her 3rd year will have a lot of debt.

Mel says

NO DEAL

she MUST have to £50,000 surely??

Meh. Average is only £10,000 now so that's not awful given the 5/3 split.

I'd carry on, and I'm again concerned how much she seemed troubled to no deal that... doesn't given much hope for future offers.

Round 5

10 - £500 Newbie Jaime

21 - 10p Roger

8 - £250 Danielle


Banker time

That looks fantastic says Noel....

Banker's offer:

£10,000

And I'm gone at £10,000.

Kris tells Mel that £10,000 is a lot of money and if she was on the wings she would be telling everyone that it is real money... Noel does a sweep of the wings and it is a fairly mixed response... Mel says that sitting there you do get blinded by the big amounts on the board, and she now has to think which she will feel worse with, going home with a blue, or knowing she could have had more.


Mel says

DEAL

erm is it just me, or is that a really bad deal?

Proveout round 6

9 - £15,000 Pat

15 - £20,000 Declan

That is good damage so far says Noel

13 - £5 Scarlet


Banker time with £1 and £50,000 remaining

The Banker asks if Mel is a swapper, and Mel says that she wouldn't have swapped...

Banker's offer:

Banker's Gamble

GAMBLE !!!!

Not really. Average is £17,000 so £10,000 is slightly more than half that. Unless we keep £50,000 to the end we're not likely to get a much bigger offer. Blue/50k shouldn't be any more than £15,000-£20,000 unless they're going to guilt trip.


ooooooooooooooooh, been a while since we've seen this.

I'd take the gamble here. Not turning down a 5-1 shot.

Mel won't be allowed to swap as she told the Banker she wouldn't have swapped if she played on...

Mel's mum asks to join her at the pound table... Mel is wondering if she has the £50,000 as she was thinking she would regret dealing earlier! She asks if she can live with going home with £1...


Mel says

DEAL

That shocked nearly everyone in the studio. Noel congratulates her for being so brave....


Noel opens box 14 and reveals £50,000
