Banker's offer:

SWAP


Mike says

SWAP

*beep*, that last round had to progress *beep*ing quickly, didn't it?!?

Fair enough, probably £9k would be my tipping point but it's irrelevant now.

Mike's partner shakes her head. Noel swap Mike's box 18 for Donna's box 5.

Noel opens Donna's box 5 and Mike wins £1,000

Only 4.50pm. I might as well switch off now.

He's just proposed !

Well, now we see why he didn't go with box 5 earlier...

But if he did say "I've just realised I want to keep 5 to the end", then why on earth was it edited out?!?!?

Terrible editing if that was indeed the case...

Box 18 with Donna contains the £1

Noel says Mike made the right decisions in the end, and Mike says he's feeling great.

Mike goes and gets a small red box from his position on the wings, and it has a ring inside. He proposes to his partner Sally and she says YES.

The banker rings and says he was about to ring and offer £1,000 if she said no! He sends out some red roses to them both, and a week's cruise for two to the Red Sea.

Noel asks Sally whether she'll marry Mike...

Sally says

DEAL

So the on-air proposal happens the game after Love Week. Obviously.

Well swapped there, and a good ending to a torrid game. And a RAOK from the Banker too!

And now we see why the last round progressed quickly, too...

I'm saying nothing more on this thread.

That must be a first. A small box opened after the game has finished that I approve of.

Ahh, that was so sweet when he proposed.

Why couldn't he have played last tuesday? That would have been so cool!

Disappointing game but a great character!!

I think what happened after the game is going to be remembered more than what happened during.
It was the sort of board that makes gamblers of even the most cautious of players, really Mike had no choice but to see it through to the end, and at least he got a red win out of it
