Steph did well to get the most money possible out of the game and achieve the Banker spanking! Both £24,000 and £35,000 were very dealable offers and for her to destroy the game right after dealing was wonderful! Congratulations Steph!

Just watched the repeat on More4. Well done Steph! One of those games where (almost) everything goes to plan for the player.

Some of the contestants are a bit scantily-clad this week aren't they?! Must've had a few runny noses in the studio...

Fantastic result, in stark contrast to yesterday's game, and that's the 2nd best selling of the 10p box ever! (although Psychic Sarah swapped away 10p early on and sold her acquired £250k for £36,400, and Simon recently of course swapped 10p for £35,000, which is kind of a neat link to today's game)

After yesterday, even the strong board seemed a bit frightening, but the twist worked out well for her - it's bizarre that the one-box twist doesn't always turn out to be as much an advantage as you might think, perhaps as it's all the more tempting to carry on.

Caution definitely the right policy today though, and I don't blame her for taking £35k as it is a substantial amount of money. I think she would've taken the £30k before the raise, actually. I'd have gone on figuring only the £250k would severely damage the offer, hitting the £50k would probably force a deal at anything over about 25k, I think.

Congratulations to a charming young lass, :smt023 , Steph. She looked a treat in her 50's style hair and outfit. And to top it all off there was a really good :spank :spank :spank going on for the banker's botty!! And a holiday to boot! Well done, Steph and I hope the £35k helps your life and the life of your sister too. Good luck and god bless you.

Pretty much the perfect game and a wonderful contrast to yesterday.

Steph was a very charming, emotional player who just about managed to keep her head long enough to get a decent wedge. In the end it was sheer luck that she got out at the peek of the game but that doesn't make the result any less satisfying.

Nice to see the ice cream gamble pay off as well, though i suspect if it hadn't Steph would have probably gone at 5 box

Well yesterday I couldn't stand the whole summer week thing. Now I love it!!

That was absolute perfection. Steph was the nervous, giggly, emotional type who I'm always very nervous about (but always have a big soft spot for!), but as the game developed, what a great board she had, though the 10p was always worrying me.

After yesterday, I really didn't want the banker to see what was in the box, so it was brilliant she got the sunshine, and the no-deal at £24k was brave considering how nervous she seemed to be, given that in games like this, the banker goes on momentum of the game rather than the mathematics of what's left, and a big hit would harm the next offer more than it should, and how much it seemed the money meant to her. I thought the raise to £35k was a great offer from just one box, and was relieved when she dealt and my nerves couldn;t stand much more!

Then seeing the proveout was even better as it made me think how ghastly it would have been if she'd either turned down the £35k, or the banker had seen in the box and done all sorts of mind games having seen 10p.

I think any deal at 4-box or 3-box in a special game is good, it's using the rules to your advantage and I find I;d do the same myself in most of them!

Well done Steph, you were brilliant!!!

Wahey, I really enjoyed this game. After the heartbreak of Dot's game, this was exactly what we needed.

I thought Steph was brilliant so it was great to see her get an OPW and a bloomin' lovely sum of money as well.

It was always going to be a 4-box OPW, only the type of character would have seen a bigger win than the £35,000...but what a game nevertheless!
