Phil's game today.

Noel says that the thing he loves about DoND is that on the face of it you just open boxes, but deeper down it is so much more than that. He talks about the last 4 games where they have had big money on the table followed by 10p, and the contestants will be wondering if there is a pattern and what will appear today.

Had a long run of low blues so due a big red...

Phil has box 8 today.

Phil is originally from Glasgow, and is an apprentice electrician, he talks about how he used to be a labourer on a building site. We get to see a photo of his daughter, and then Noel asks him about his partner who it turns out applied for the show at the same time as Phil, but it was Phil who got the call to appear on the show.


Here we go...

Round 1

17 - £50 Betty

21 - 1p Jean

20 - £15,000 Sheri

3 - £35,000 Newbie Carrie

2 - £250,000 Mick

Banker time

Wow, says Noel. The Banker says that the 1p had him quaking in his boots, but then Mick changed all that. He says that he is a big fan of bowler hats and thinks that Phil would look good in a bowler hat as well, and then puts up a picture of Laural and Hardy on the gameboard and says that they look just like him and Phil

Banker's offer:

£3,250

Good to see Laurel and Hardy are not forgotten!

Phil says that is a great offer and would pay for his night school for the next 2 years.

Phil says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break...

We're back

Round 2

12 - £3,000 Mev

9 - £100 Sam

15 - 50p Caerwyn

Banker time

It's getting there now says Noel. The Banker says that was a contrasting round, but not in the boxes, but the people who opened the boxes, there was 2 really nice people, and then Mev who looks like Ming the Merciless!

Banker's offer:

£7,000

Phil talks about how much that offer would help him out with the reducing the time he would have to do his qualifications to become an electrician, and in turn be able to spend so much more time with his daughter.

Phil says

NO DEAL

Round 3

18 - £250 Smithy

10 - £500 esher

Noel calls another break...

We're back
Last box before the Banker

6 - £20,000 Emma

Banker time

Same offer again?

The Banker asks if it would be very mean to stick here.

Banker's offer:

£7,000

Phil goes to the wings for some advice. Richie says that this is a pivitol round now, and Phil tries to blank off one side of the board and says that he doesn't want to go home with a blue.

Phil says

NO DEAL

Round 4

11 - 10p Versila

That was the perfect start says Noel.

16 - £100,000 Win

That is so cruel says Noel.

7 - £1,000 Richie

Banker time

Noel wonders what the Banker will do now as it is such an even round, and now an even board.

Banker's offer:

£7,000

Very good offer... as to what has just been revealed.

Some more excellent advice from Richie...

Phil says that the Banker is such a clever man. Phil gets some more advice from the wings. The Banker calls and says that Phil will have to take out the 3 lowest blues to get an offer of around £20,000.

Phil says

NO DEAL

Noel calls another break...
