Noel calls a break...

It's difficult for the Banker to go down in generosity once he's gone up in the first place on these shows (although this is so stable that he could go down at 8-box for a boo knowing that there will almost certainly still be something to play for at 5-box).

I burst into laughter as soon as that Quagmire pic came up!

And now it's very possible there won't be something to play for at 5-box.

Youch. Well at least it shows it isn't fixed for the celebs, very reassuring after the editing gaffe (maybe I feel a bit more in agreement with the wellser now).

We're back

Round 5

Jimmy says he's having a disaster, but Noel disagrees.

21 - Mark - £50

Dave talks about how he saved Jimmy's life, as he almost pushed Jimmy into a canal.

7 - Dave - £500

18 - Paul - £10,000

Banker time

Noel says this is a one-box game now. Ben tells Jimmy to find out if the holiday's still available!

Banker's offer:

£3,500

Knowing him, he probably will take this offer...

60% chance of disaster and the Banker is prepared to risk an offer that even normally would seem a tiny bit low - that's gutsy from the producers.

This is a very similar 5-box board to the first ever DOND.

Jimmy says it's a very good offer, and Mick says the banker has to go back up if he just keeps the £35k in play. Jimmy says he's tempted to deal, and Mike says that's a good idea with Jimmy's present form! Ian tells Jimmy that he's come this far, so he may as well go on and *beep* it up totally. Jimmy asks for a sweep, and Justin says the walk of wealth looks like a massive penis! Tiffany says if Jimmy goes on, they'll raise money through their gigs. The others agree that he should play on.

Jimmy says

NO DEAL

Not as good an offer though. We may see similar generosity at two-box if he has an all blue though.

Round 6

12 - Chris - 50p

20 - John - £100

4 - Ian - £1

Banker time with £750 and £35,000 remaining...

The Banker is probably going to offer him a very low offer to force him to go on.

Hopefully the first celebrity show, it's a spanking and the £35,000 is won.

I'd forgotten the potential for gambles gone wrong to be bailed out by the celebrity's friends in showbiz until that five-box debate.

Jimmy says he's actually shaking, and the banker says he's shaking at the thought of giving money to charity.

Banker's offer:

£14,000

Hopefully he has the guts to go for it.......

Lynn's offer from show #1 on a £35k/blue finish.

Justin says he thinks there's £35,000 in the box, and Mick asks how Jimmy would feel if he dealt and had £35,000 in the box. Jimmy wonders if the banker will up the offer, and Noel says you have to be careful when doing that, but Jimmy says the banker will save £15,000 if he deals at £20,000 and there's £35,000 in the box! The banker rings and says Jimmy doesn't have the guts to go to the end.

Jimmy says

NO DEAL

Jimmy asks what has he done! He says the hospice needs £4 million a year to keep going.

Noel opens Jimmy's box 22 and Jimmy's charity wins £750

Damn......... £750
