That box 6 curse has struck again. Laura obviously used up all its luck in one go, and now it's a recipe for disaster every time it comes out it seems!


Your second chance games must be close to getting a second series at this rate. :-D

I founded the Box 6 hate club yonks ago. ;-)

When i first saw Pete had box 6, even before he was announced as the player, i got bad feelings. Its history and run of blues that that been going since Stevie just made that inevitable. It actually reminded me of 1p Nick's game when he seemed to more or less hit the remaining highest value with every box! But good on him for taking it so well, and also his dad cracking jokes about the offers, at least both Pete's and Robin's games were bearable trainwrecks.

I think the real stinker in the offers was the £1,500 with the 75k still up there - I'd have liked to have seen a teaser of 4-5k or something there. Offers like that are just going to encourage people to take the first decent offer they get, which really isn't what the show needs.

I don't even think the 19p was worth taking either - if I was going to take a blue deal, I would at least like it to the fair was the remaining values - but then again Igor's was hardly fair was it? Canm you see anyone been offered £19k on a £100k/£10k finish?

Fingers crossed that the girls turn it round!

We've seen £30k offered. Hell, we've seen £30k DEALT!

Oh totally, I can't see what the point of these stupid decision free derisory offers is. 3.5/4K would have been fairer and more dealable.
Interesting how Noel's attitude has changed from reckless to advising caution at a derisory offer at 8 box.
1.5K was ridiculous. Conor was offered 5K with that board if I remember correctly.

Middle ground between these offers and feb/march offers and I'll be happy.

Visually, it was a bit like watching Pete and his harem. In gameplay terms, it was yet another shocker. Hard lines Pete, you didn't really stand a chance with the way that all fell apart.

Agreed, with the additional condition that generosity is inversely proportional to board strength. Simply put, for most people it's a lot easier to turn down £3k on a *beep* board than £30k on a great one.
