Bob's game today.

Noel says he thinks they've broken the recent cycle, and he says he doesn't know why there are cycles so often. He says the recent cycle was people winning blues or dealing too early. The names start flashing and the banker rings and says Frank should be staring forwards and looking more dramatic.

Had the £75,000 yesterday and game before that, £20,000.

Any coincidence that after 3 x 8-box deals in a row, Noel starts the game by repeating a contestant's statement yesterday that we're overdue a big win.

That's true but it could be implied as trying to stop a 4th pre 2-box deal in a row.

Bob has box 1.

Bob is from Gloucester but is originally from New York. He says he joined the US air force in the 1960s and his first assignment was in London. He ended up in Gloucester as most of his family lived there, and he eventually moved there too. Bob is now retired and is very involved with his local community, and he talks about the stuff they get up to. We get to see a pic of Bob with his wife, and a pic of his parents. Bob also shows a photo of Bob with his twin brother, and Noel can't tell which one is Bob!

Here we go...

Bob says his first round was just a practice.

Bob says

NO DEAL

Bob says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break...

If I was in the Dream Factory, I wouldn't hesitate to make the point that the majority of opening offers these days are multiples of £250...

Wonder what the Banker would think of that?

We're back

11 - Toni - £15,000

19 - Caroline - £750

Noel calls a break and Bob asks everyone to come back to see the yank spank the bank!

Clare, I believe.

I had a feeling he would be a great character .

We're back

Last box before the Banker

Noel says Bob has ambitions to travel to Australia, South Africa and the Isle of Wight. Bob says he wants to go to the IoW because of the laid-back atmosphere. Noel asks if Bob has a favourite part of England, and Bob says Scotland!

3 - Amy - £1

Banker time

The banker says a complaint's been made by Toni, as she feels Noel's picking on her! The banker says OFCOM rules mean Noel has to be chucked out, so he gets Noel removed and Toni takes over the show. Toni says the banker sounds fit!

Banker's offer:

£15,000

Now, that's a LOT more funnier than Noel's Hamster Jam joke yesterday...

There was definitely something strange in the water supply in Bristol when they filmed this week's games.
