Franca's game today.

Noel says he still has a theory that the banker is trying to reduce the "governor" from £26,000 to £16,000.

Franca has box 3.

Franca is from Stroud and works at a building society, and she goes into some detail about what she does. We get to see an old b&w pic of Franca's mum and her sister when they were in Italy. Franca also shows a photo of some Italian workers who came over to Gloucestershire to help out during the 2007 floods, and Franca acted as a translator, as they didn't speak English and arrived with a letter from Gordon Brown! Franca talks about how she helped with the floods.

She has a necklace with her which belongs to a spiritual friend of hers.

Here we go...

Round 1

Franca's system involves going from the smallest contestant to the tallest! Noel gets all the contestants to give their heights and he writes them down to help Franca.

21 - Ellen - £100

7 - Debbie - £50

8 - Barbara - £750

Noel says Frank must be next, but they realise Clare's shorter so it's her!

10 - Clare - 50p

4 - Frank - £10,000

Banker time

The banker says that round had 5 of the 7 dwarves.

Banker's offer:

£10,000

Noel introduces us to Jamie in the audience, who is Franca's boyfriend.

Franca says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break...

Oh great, take out 4 blues and £10,000 and that's ALL the Banker offers?!
How did Peter get an opening offer of £15,000 with £20K & £50K taken out?

We're back

Round 2

15 - Olivia - £1,000

19 - Archie - £5,000

12 - Paul - 10p

Banker time

The banker says he knew this good luck would happen, as he thinks Franca is romantically involved with Noel! He plays a slow-motion replay of the 1p kiss Franca and Noel had. Noel says the banker's a rotter, as his wife is out the back.

Banker's offer:

£16,000

Franca's boyfriend talks about how the recession affected his job as he works with conservatory erections.

Franca says

NO DEAL

Round 3

14 - Fran - £3,000

9 - Kim - £15,000

Noel calls a break...

Yeah but has anyone taken the first offer, let alone the second? No need to get so moody...

Looking REALLY strong so far, with a board similar to Richard's (I don't know... but probably).

We're back

Last box before the Banker

Noel talks about the various systems there have been.

5 - Danielle - £75,000

Banker time

Hopefully the £16k won't work. Still a strong board.

Is the husband a psychic or something?

Noel says that's pretty good, and Franca says it's incredibly generous. Franca's boyfriend talks about the next 3 boxes, and Noel says what they'll be, and he asks if they mean anything to Franca.

Franca says

NO DEAL

Round 4

17 - Rachel - £10

20 - Andre - £50,000

18 - Jefferson - £35,000

Noel calls a break...

Ouch... nasty there... probably a stick with that blasted £16,000

We're back

Noel says the game's become a little nerve-wracking after that round.

Banker time

The banker says he's going down a bit.

Banker's offer:

£13,000
