No thread for this repeat yet it seems...

Horrendous start, demolished the entire top four by the third offer. Turned around nicely with all-blue round though.

Can't remember exactly what he won but do know what happened at the end, as this game was in the DOND record books for some time...

First time that Noel's book's been used! Although it was for an offer prediction, rather than a target amount.

I felt sorry for Paul, but I have to admit that this bit made me laugh:

Jan: *opens box while talking* You and I have been good friends Paul, and I hope that when we get home we'll be able to share -
Noel: SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS!!!

And a great comedy moment with Kai thinking his box 'has a five in it', and revealing...£5! Noel's look was like when Brenda took out £10, and Paul finished off that amazing 1p/£1000/10p/£3000/50p round...astonishment.

FIRST PERSON TO HAVE 50P!!!!!! I love him. (Even if he did sell it. Bah.)

Strange how similar that game was to yesterday's.

yeah that was hilarious she didn't even finish talking when she opened the box. and also yes it was funny seeing kai predict something with a 5 in the box and it was £5!

I don't know who wayne is but I do know Leigh and he is one of the best people on the planet so I hope you're not knocking him without knowing the first thing about him.

Spartacus, I think wakey was just referring to Leigh's (and Wayne's) inability to accurately predict what's in his box! He thought it would be £5 today, and opened the £250k...

Kai and Leigh are totally different!

Yeah, there have been a few like that... e.g. June - "I've got a blue" - bang - quarter million!

And don't forget Lofty, "don't pick me I've got a bad feeling about this one... oh sorry, you've left it until the end and it's a blue..."

And Peter....grrr... :evil:

I'll give you three guesses as to the game in which he made a bad prediction...

Well it's either Sarah, Sarah or... maybe Sarah? (And not the crazy one or the one who hasn't played yet!)

Yep...making her save five hundred bloody quid to the end...I still haven't quite forgiven him.

Erm, I've gone off-topic again, sorry. The 60p offer was funny today - the only other offers of less than £1 that we've seen have been in active play, and therefore not quite as amusing!

Who had the £250,000 in Sarahs game? You should hate box 3! It had the £250,000!

Drew had the £250,000 in Sarah's game

Indeed, but Drew didn't tell her to open it or anything, so I can forgive him for that. Just.

(And Stevie had £100k, Simone had £75k, Patricia had £50k....can't think who had £35k. I'm a failure.)

June had £35k! I'm ashamed dan - I didn't even have to search bothers bar for that at all!

OK more Sarah's Game Mastermind questions for you... see how many you can get without resorting to BB!

- Who had the 1p?
- Who did she pick first?
- What were the last six "squashdown" amounts?
- Who did the break voiceover?
- Who won the viewers' competition and how much did they win?

- Who had the 1p? Carlton
- Who did she pick first? Erm...I think it was £50, with...Rich?
- What were the last six "squashdown" amounts? £1,000, £20,000, £500, £5, £250, and £50,000?
- Who did the break voiceover? No idea. Stevie.
- Who won the viewers' competition and how much did they win? Hmm, I think I'd have remembered if it had been the £10k, because I'd have been annoyed that they won more than Sarah. So I'm going to say...£2k. And I've absolutely no idea who won it, just that it wasn't me.

OK, over to BB for the answers:

Carlton did indeed have 1p.

First box was indeed £50, with Rich. (How do I know this???)
Last six amounts - £5, £100, £500, £1,000, £20,000 and £50,000. Aw, I got one of them wrong. I knew it was a high blue!
Break voiceover - Bother's Bar doesn't know, and my copy has the breaks cut out. Let's just say it was Stevie.

Viewer's prize - Oh, it was £10,000! I should have remembered that. To Dianne McGuigan from Hastings.

Therefore, I got 8 or possibly 9 out of 12. I'm very proud/ashamed. (Depending on how you look at it.)
