The big value has been on the table the following times:

Show 10, Natalie, 10/11/05
Show 22, Mally, 24/11/05
Show 88, Daz, 11/2/06
Show 100, Anna, 25/2/06
Show 108, Germaine, 7/3/06
Show 126, Bob, 28/3/06
Show 175, Patricia, 24/5/06
Show 202, Debbie, 17/6/06

Between show 1 and show 202, it had been on the table,on average, once every 25.25 shows.

The longest gap was between show 22 and show 88, 66 shows. To break this record, the £250k needs to stay away until at least show 269, which would be the 67th show since it was last on the table.

Oh, and anotehr thing, did Noel go on about the absence of the £250k on the table between show 22 and show 88? I don't think he did. And why are the occurrences of the 250k on the table in pairs?

10/11 and 24/11
11/2 and 25/2
7/3 and 28/3
24/5 and 17/6

Only a gap of 2 or 3 weeks between the two dates in each pair!

Do you remember all that business with sequencegate? I know they changed the method of choosing the amounts to go in each box from a computer program to a similar method as the lottery numbers are selected because of that but does anyone know when the change was made?

I think Candice's game (08/03) was the last to use the sequences, so Paula H's game (09/03) was the first to, erm, not.

Did this affect the number of times the £250k was on the table? It shouldn't have done...
