Just tuned in to see a no deal to £19,999. Now I'm staying off this forum and watching this game for myself, by myself, without the ridiculous eye-winking that's been going on as of late.

Good show to do it, knowing that everyone will be tuned in.

So far, the Banker has followed recent protocol of reducing generosity after 14-box knowing that contestants won't bite before 11-box anyway.

The clock has... Not followed recent protocol.

There'll be a slow final stage, but what will be the cause of it?

I'd be livid if a contestant said something like that in my game. I'd at the very least ask Noel to kick her out.

I'm still filling mine in

More people from the forum need to get on this show and become contestants. I'd gladly watch that.

I sent mine off years ago but no reply at all!

Oh great, Noel's started conversations about furniture!

Come on Paddy!!!!!!

We're back...

Round 5

Paddy says he would like to go backpacking, he also wants more tattoos and a black bedroom. Noel reminds him if he wins the jackpot he gets to keep the box, and hopes he has a special spot for it in his bedroom. Paddy says he lost his nan in 2010 and it was a hard time, but she's the reason he is here today. Paddy says he's originally from Liverpool. Noel wonders if today is the day.

6 - Kerry - £750

7 - Paul - £50

19 - Rosie - 50p

All red 5 box! Banker time...

OH HELL YEAH!!!

WHAT A ROUND!!!

All red five box

This is where the £26,000 happens probably but the board is worth much more than that...

Extra offer time coming up.....

Good lord, dream finish very much still on

Got in during the final ad break, just in time to see him have an improbable all-blue round!!

Could this be it?!

Noel says that has only happened a handful of times in the history of the show. The Banker says that was a devastating blow and he is quivering... He says Paddy has got that look in his eye, and he has the perfect board for it. He doesn't just want the money, he wants the title; and the Banker knows he can do it.

Banker's offer:

£40,000

ALL RED 5-BOX!!

ROUND 5 STATS

Offer: £40,000 OH COME ON! SERIOUSLY?!
Mean: £89,200
FD: £63,820.22
Volatility: 1.28
Board Total: £446,000

£1,000
£20,000
£75,000
£100,000
£250,000

£40,000 is way too low. He's got to go for it, surely.

£40,000? I would've expected £50,000? Obviously The Banker is not trying here.

Crap offer. Almost a forcing on offer.

Paddy's mum says he can do everything he wants to do with that amount of money. Paddy says he is visualising becoming the show's first male quarter-millionaire, and it is surreal but he can see it happening. Kaytee tells him to think about it because they haven't seen an offer that high in their time in the show. Paddy says he wants to go on and someone shouts "do it then!". The Banker calls and advises him to take the money so he can show his mum how much he appreciates her.

Paddy says:

NO DEAL
