Safina's game today.

Q.C. Noel welcomes us to the Dream Courts and he reveals that today is actually the Banker's birthday so anything can happen. He runs through the COPS & ROBBERS twist and introduces the jail where the Banker can send anyone he feels deserves a spell in there.

Had the £250k yesterday. Hopefully the banker will get a mega spanking as it's his birthday.

Safina has box 8 today.

Safina is from Birmingham, and we get to see a before and after shot of her in her robber outfit. We get to see Safina's wedding pictures and she talks about the wedding.

Here we go...

Round 1

The Banker calls before the start of the round and the Banker wants everyone to wish him a happy birthday, and after they do he asks if they actually said Banker The Banker asks Safina to remove her mask so he can see her eyes, and he says he has a surprise at 5-box and he has wired the studio for sound and for the first time ever we will all hear the Banker as he gets involved in the game.

4 - £5,000 Debs

7 - £1 Jodie

17 - 50p Autumn

15 - 1p Harry

That is really, really good says Noel.

14 - £20,000 Lee

Banker time

That was super OK says Noel.

Banker's offer:

£9,900

Safina says

NO DEAL

Round 2

9 - £10,000 Michael

16 - £750 Neil

This is still looking very good says Noel, and he then gets Safina to call the break...

We're back
Last box before the Banker

11 - £5 Newbie Adam

Banker time

The Banker isn't having a great birthday at the moment says Noel. The Banker asks Newbie Adam to select someone to go into the jail for the rest of the game, and Adam picks Lee.

Banker's offer:

£14,000

Safina says that is a lovely sum of money.

Safina says

NO DEAL

So we have a new Prime Minister, the Banker's actually celebrating his birthday today, and a Russian tennis star is playing the first ever celebrity edition. Oh, wait, wrong Safina. In more interesting news, the audience will be privy to an in-character producer announcement at the Adjusted ADP, and a twist is promised.

Three of the Banker's Power 5, bookended with an orange and The Rock? Super OK indeed! The offer is as generous as we'll get before five-box. Two more low numbers go, and we have a fantastic board. If this is blue, the second offer might even be as much as £15,000! Oh, alright, fourteen grand. Joke 11-box offer coming up one presumes.

Round 3

20 - £250 Liam

19 - £100,000 Juliana

That is OK and was going to happen at some point says Safina

10 - £50,000 Steve

Banker time

There is a bit of a red money ladder now says Noel.

Banker's offer:

£7,000

Safina says

NO DEAL

Round 4

18 - £3,000 David

12 - £50 Fran

Noel calls another break and promises something interesting at 5-box...

Can't wait until 5-box, although I must admit, knowing the banker I don't think he will actually do the voice-over.

It was amusing that Noel made reference to the "policeman standing outside Number 10" when Steve opened his box.

It reminds me of when Gordon Brown-soundalike-contestant Alan had box 10 on the day Brown became PM, and he said "I've finally made it to number 10" when he opened his box.

Safina is right to be philosophical about the £100k, a big hit was due. Even with the £50k it's an above-average board; the Banker makes an 'offer' which says "No Deal, six boxes next round".

The first two are good. Safina should hope to keep £250k and one Power 5 backup to the Adjusted ADP.

We're back
Last box before the Banker

2 - 10p Emma

Banker time

That is a very attractive 8-box says Noel. The Banker says he is prepared to reveal something to Safina, and the birthday treat for Safina is that if she plays on to 5-box he will allow her to play both twists today and doesn't have to choose between them, so she can win the holiday and also play on one-box at a time.

Banker's offer:

£13,500
