Noel says imagine how we'd be feeling now if Ruby had gone on and risked it... the banker says she's so lucky, as he'd have offered the banker's gamble if the final 2 were blue vs £100k, and we'd have been here until Sunday evening :lol:

Banker's offer would've been:

75p

At least the proveout offer didn't go up. I think it was believable to stick but definitely no more. And it's a comedy OPW!

I am so happy for Ruby as she was so cheerful and funny! She managed to get out at the top of the game, which is always good. I think she will be able to do a lot with the money and she deserves it. Congratulations Ruby!

Very enjoyable game, that!

Proof that the show doesn't always have to be about gambling to win massive amounts of money, and that £17,500 proveout offer was probably set where it was to prove "how lucky she was" and also that she'd not gone too soon at the same time.

The Gamble would have been expected too at 2-box had that last one not have been the £100,000 so thank goodness she had already dealt!

Very funny, highly entertaining game.

Ruby was a riot from start to finish - and she only lives about 20 odd miles down the road from me :D

Don;t know if that counts as a spanking given that the 5 box offer was a stick and not a drop, but it deserved to be. That's a wonderful victory over the Banker.

Highly entertaining game, if downright weird at times. It reminded me a bit of Mary's game in stages, and I actually thought at the beginning through all the dithering she might accidentally have said 'DEAL' (although Mary accidentally said no deal, but then stuck to that decision when asked again!)

I promised to be a barmy game and lived up to its billing, and rare for a game with such comedy, it turned out to also be an OPW! The deal may have been slightly cautious, but the board was almost perfectly balanced, and the offer was well pitched.

It'd be interesting to find out how long that show took to record, with Noel looking at his watch and the early break they took, which must've meant they felt they had more than enough at the time to fill that segment comfortably!

I suppose the editing was made more difficult in that Noel asked the question and about 3 hours later he got a response :roll: , and basically what she said in between couldn't easily be cut out without making sense (although it didn't make much sense anyway)!

I enjoyed Ruby's game, I thought it was so funny. It's a good thing she dealt when she did, with all the dithering, they'd never have managed to fit the whole game plus adverts into the allocated 45 minutes! They would have had to make it a two part special!

Best comedy game in yonks, the gameplay didn't realy matter but that was perfect too, though I believe the 5-box offer should have been low teens, but who cares when she would have ended up with a pocket change last pair?

Well done Ruby, you're a legend!

Great game - really made me laugh. With the timing of the show, I was expecting a 3rd offer deal.

The first proveout offer seemed a little high - wouldn't have expected a stick on a £100k/£20k/peanuts final 5.

I enjoyed the game very much. I did think it was funny although it wasn't as funny as Jez's game but I think that it was almost certainly the second funniest show of this month. When I watched it I expected a 8-box deal as there was only about 5 minutes left when we got to 8-box. The stick was possibly real because the £17,500 she dealt at was a generous offer.
