This is certainly a board that warrants an offer of £10,500, rather perplexing to see so many people shocked at it.

Noel has never heard so many pilgrims saying 'what?'! He's wanting to you really get you to think, says Noel. Hardik's fiancee says it's a very generous offer. Hardik summarises what could happen if he goes on. His fiancee says he should separate his dreams from the gameplay, like he advised Carla to yesterday.

Hardik says:

NO DEAL

Just waiting for Noel to make the old "money ladder" comment.

Agreed with psychokiller, that board had stick written all over it.

Surprising reaction to that second box!

Round 4

Hardik says this is turning into a bit of a scrap.

Box 10 with Tony - £50

You need one of those four small sums, says Noel.

Box 6 with Laura - £10,000

Hardik tries Franca's technique of silent breathing and calm box picking.

Noel calls a break before Hardik picks the final box...

If next offer is a blue (or a low red), highest offer so far I reckon... if £50,000 could be another same offer again...

4 blues left and they are ALL from the Banker's Power 5. I hope he can hit one of them. He might actually get above £10,500 if he avoids the £250k and the £50k.

Tell you what, he hits a blue and he'll stick again.

And thank you.

EDIT: Forgot about the £50. So easily more. Sorry !

We're back...

Final box before the Banker...

Box 13 with Hannah - £1

Banker time...

Split screen... is that the first time they done that?

Noel has no idea what will happen here after he was wrong last time. The Banker thought Hardik could turn down a big offer on a precarious board, and was proved right last time. He wants Hardik to work for it.

Banker's offer:

£20,000

Not bad!

£20,000?! I did NOT expect that!

Very good advice from that "unnamed" person...

though he probably will deal here.

They've done. No, it's been done before.


The evaluation of £20,000 would actually probably get me out here. Cracker.

Personally I'd deal here...

A split screen gets the reaction of both Hardik and his fiancee to the offer. Hardik's fiancee says he should think about how many numbers are left that are below the offer. A pilgrim says Hardik could be the first male £250,000 winner; another says he should deal. Russ says Hardik shouldn't get blinded by the big money; Kris says Hardik, a Man Utd fan, has Box 7, which is a big number for the club, so he thinks there's another round. Hardik's fiancee says he's only there once, and could win £250,000, but he could never get a chance to win £20,000 again.

Hardik says:

DEAL

Looking at the time left, it was clear he was going to deal... now hopefully £250,000 will be discovered...

Round 5 - proveout

Prove the Banker overpaid, says Noel.

Box 17 with Bert - £5

You now have two stabs to win the game, says Noel, but you must be accurate.

Box 15 with Mark - £15,000

No no no, says Noel.

Box 4 with Sarah - £50,000

Banker time...

I think we will see the £26,000 again......
