Craig's game today.

Noel says he feels very nervous today and explains it's the final Cops & Robbers special, and the banker could do something totally ghastly!

We have a scottish policeman !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (That's his costume by the way not his occupation)

Craig has box 12.

Craig is an apprentice gas engineer from Scotland, and he talks about how he's been looking for a career for a long time so he feels lucky to have the apprenticeship. He says he has arachnophobia, and on his first day he opened a meter box which had massive spiders in it! Craig shows us a pic of his baby son. Noel says Craig has a dangerous dream which we'll hear about later...

Here we go...

I presume Craig's repacement will be female to accomodate for the 12 male, 10 female (presuming that Emma is replaced by a girl) line-up that we have.

Round 1

Craig says he has some numbers which he'll keep to the end.

4 - Adam - £5,000

5 - Jodie - £20,000

3 - Michael - £10,000

Craig says it's good to hit the low reds early on so you have more blues to hit later.

16 - Debs - £50,000

20 - Steve - £5

Banker time

Interesting first round...

The banker says everyone will get party bags, but they might not be what people expect! He says he's been collecting them and some of them are warm, and Noel asks him how his dogs are. The banker's unhappy that Steve provided the only blue in that round, so he gets sent to JAIL...

Banker's offer:

£1,000

Craig says

NO DEAL

Round 2

14 - Mikey - £50

17 - Lisa - £250

Noel says Craig's having a blue cruise now, and he gets him to call a break...

I think the only justification of wanting a low red first round is that obviously an all blue round would be preferable but even if you get a really good offer, no-one is ever going to take it.

Half-jokish first offer...yep definitely validates that theory!

Sod's law will dictate this will be another of the Power Five...an all-blue round wouldn't send the offer north of £10,000 though so we're not going to see a big increase in power just yet either way

We're back

Last box before the Banker

7 - De - £1

Banker time

Better round and we're back to red/blue parity.

Noel says one of Craig's dreams is to take his partner Clare on a romantic holiday. Noel wonders if wedding bells are in the air! The banker sends the last 3 players who revealed blues to JAIL! He says Craig looks like one of the policemen from Mary Poppins...

Banker's offer:

£11,000

Craig says that's a sensible offer.

Craig says

NO DEAL

Round 3

19 - Liam - £3,000

10 - Autumn - £10

21 - Jean - £1,000

Banker time

The banker sends Autumn to JAIL because she revealed a blue! The banker says everyone who finds a blue goes to JAIL, but they'll all get released if Craig finds the 1p.

Banker's offer:

£17,500

Craig says

NO DEAL

£17,500 is a decent offer considering the standard of offers this week. Worth going on though.

OK this has shut me up!
