Michelle's game today.

Noel says he doesn't give the pilgrims enough credit! He says people have come from all over the country to see the show and names some of the places, including Crinkley Bottom

A new week, hopefully we can get off to a great start with Michelle, she'll need a lot of luck

Had a good run of low amounts so hopefully a big red today.

Michelle has box 10.

Michelle is from Bradford. She is a nail technician, and speaks a bit about why she decided to take it up. She explains she was diagnosed with arthritis at the age of 32 but she picked herself up and got on with life. She says she's always had a fascination with goth type things and vampires etc! She decided to wear exactly what she wanted to wear!

Michelle has a pic of her dog and Noel miaows at the camera Michelle has a good luck card with her and box 8 is on the card, which newbie Eileen has today.

Here we go...

Michelle has no system but she has a target which she writes in Noel's book

6 - Hardav - £35,000

Noel says £35k keeps jumping out early in games.

4 - Gail - £1

Michelle explains she's leaving blocks of boxes to reduce the chances of finding a big number

17 - Jazmin - £100

21 - Cyril - £5,000

9 - Calum - £75,000

Banker time

Noel says the banker sounds rumbustious! The banker likes dark things and can see him and Michelle together...

Banker's offer:

£6,500

Hmm, writing down a target just makes it easy for The Banker to read a contestant's mind, it's true

Not a good start, mind...

Michelle says that's alright and would solve a lot of problems for her.

Michelle says NO DEAL

Noel says it looks like Nic should be wearing a toga and Nic asks what a "togo" is and looks confused

18 - Nic - £50

1 - Mark - £250,000

Noel gets Michelle to call a break

And there it goes again...will there ever be a game where it stays up to 2-box?

We're back

Noel says Michelle is a goth who has a degree in nail engineering!

12 - Milly - £3,000

Banker time

Noel says the banker shouted "GOTH" when the £250k went Michelle nearly spits her tea out as she laughs, and the banker gets Noel giggling

Banker's offer:

£4,000

Michelle says if you imagine the offer as a sum on the board, it's about right as it's in the middle of the board. She says the money would help a lot. She gets Noel's name wrong and he worries if he's going to be sacked and replaced

Michelle says NO DEAL

I've just logged in but fear there's no point me checking out this recap until 4.55

Noel tells Michelle to grab the game to get the banker's attention.

Michelle chooses Geena but changes her mind...

2 - Steph - £500

19 - Geena - £50,000

7 - Ella - 10p

Banker time

Noel says that's a sign of a game that's slipping... Michelle says she still has a chance of going with more than £2,500

Michelle says NO DEAL

wtf, £2,500?

yawn

14 - Spencer - £250

20 - Shaun - £750

15 - Daniel - £10

Banker time

Now that was a good round!
