Paul's game today.

Noel looks back to Imani's game and thinks there was a lesson for everyone. She had enormous belief, and he says that can really help you, but you must remember you can never control the game, and there was a moment in Imani's game where she needed to react to what was happening on the board.

Paul has box 21 today.

Paul is a retired market trader. Paul says he sold all sorts of soft furnishings on his stall and he loved his work, he has his wife Pat in the audience for support. She explains how they met in the Air force in air traffic control.

Paul says he hasn't got a target and came along for the experience and to meet Noel

Here we go...

Round 1

Paul has 2 numbers that he is keeping until the end, but apart from that there is no system

12 - 10p Stephen

4 - £10 Martyn

11 - £50,000 Danny

9 - £20,000 Andy

1 - £5,000 Dan

Banker time

Paul says he is happy with that, but he won't ask his wife Pat as she doesn't want to be on the TV! The Banker says that they need a big close-up of Pat for a public service announcement to show that it doesn't affect you being on TV

Banker's offer:

£8,000

That is a wonderful offer says Paul.

Paul says

NO DEAL

Maria next and Noel gets up close to help warm her seal-pulling hand!

18 - £250,000 Maria

Banker time

That £250,000 is coming out too soon at the start of this new season says Noel. Noel and the Banker wind Paul up about being hen-pecked at home!

Banker's offer:

£1,000

Someone lets out a quiet boo, but Noel gets them to give a louder boo

Paul says

NO DEAL

Noel talks to Paul about his model railway and the Banker calls to interrupt them so Noel picks up the phone and hangs it straight up again

Oh no! Says Noel that is the whole of the power 5 now wiped out!

8 - £15,000 Newbie Sue

A model turkey

Paul asks if it is a real turkey and Noel says that it is a model one for his railway! The Banker calls back and says he can have a real one if he likes!

Paul says

NO DEAL
