Ruby's game today.

Noel says he wasn't aware that we have someone here of extraordinary courage, and he explains it's Christopher, who pushed himself to the limit in freezing conditions - he says how he once got stuck on the edge of a small cliff and his girlfriend had to talk him down Noel calls him a wimp!

Had a long run of low amounts and had the 1p yesterday. Hopefully a big red win today.

Ruby has box 21.

Ruby is from Swindon, and is a retired nurse. She did nursing for 21 years, and talks about her career and has a chat with Noel about the history of the hospitals in Swindon, then talks about how Swindon should become a city and the council are building a cathedral! Noel says Ruby should run Swindon

She shows a pic of her sons, and the rest of her family...

Here we go...

Noel says he's calm now we've solved the problems of Swindon

The audience all wave at Ruby

3 - John - £10

2 - Heath - £50,000

Harry now, and Noel says he sounds like a gangster

4 - Harry - £10,000

7 - Jehad - £250,000

Ann now, and she has some banter about bedrooms

17 - Ann - £1,000

Banker time

Noel says that's the 2nd game in a row where the £250k leaves in the 1st round. The banker says Ruby's the new mayor of Swindon and that she lives up to her name by being small, precious and sparkling! But she's not as expensive as a sparkling stone

Banker's offer:

£3,000

Ruby says NO DEAL

Now that was not good at all

Ruby says she doesn't think the banker thinks much of her

16 - Sylvie - £750

18 - Emma - £5

Noel says no-one knows about this, but Ruby has a guilty secret... he'll tell us after the break

Here's hoping for an all blue round...

Any chance the offer coming up after the break will actually be a jewel rather than cash?

We're back

Noel says Ruby does the Lotto every week and has the occasional flutter on the horses, and Ruby says Noel's exposed her

8 - Spike - £100

Banker time

And it is!

The banker says Ruby's been exposed on teatime Channel 4... but everyone will keep it quiet, which she says is nice

Banker's offer:

£8,500

Ruby says that's a nice little sum of money... she says she'd spend the money on taking her family on holiday to the Caribbean... she starts to talk about the history of the area and seems irritated that Noel doesn't know much about it, so he talks about The Pirates of the Caribbean She wants to show her family where they originate from...

Noel asks the question and she starts talking about how much the money means to her again Noel then points to the DOND neon sign, and Ruby says she's still waiting

Ruby says NO DEAL

12 - Paul - 1p

Marios now, but Ruby calls him Maria

10 - Marios - £3,000

Newbie Deborah now, and Ruby asks if she wants Deborah or Debbie, and she says "anyone" so Ruby asks for anyone's box

11 - newbie Deborah - £500

Banker time

Noel calls the banker "someone" as he's forgotten who the banker was as it was so long since we last spoke He says he's spoken to the Channel 4 controller, and DOND will run until 12am tonight The banker's off to do some shopping now as Ruby will take ages to decide over this offer

Banker's offer:

£13,000

Ruby says that's a nice offer and could do a lot for her. Noel asks what Ruby would do with the money again, so he gets a chair to sit on from the side He sits down and puts his feet up, whilst Ruby tells us that she'd also like to have a holiday for herself... the banker phones!! He says he's back from the shops and wants to know Ruby's decision to the offer He says thank goodness, as he needs to go back and buy some milk

Noel asks the question and Ruby starts talking about what the money would do!

Ruby says NO DEAL

Noel says we only have 4 and a half minutes left, so he calls a break

Amidst this comedy, it seems certain she will be gone at eight-box if not before.

I'd play on at £13,000 here, although it might not take much more to get me out of there.

What a brilliant show this is turning out to be, Ruby is such a great character, and so funny.
