Jim's game today.

Noel knows we have been doing the show for nearly 5 years, but it still fascinates him the power of the £250,000 and how it influences the contestants game, and some people are relieved when it goes as it gets rid of some pressure, but others see it as a key part to their game

Jim has box 7 today.

Jim has a fireman's helmet on top of his box, and Noel asks if we are expecting a spot of bother! Jim is a firefighter from London, and only his daughter knew he was coming onto the show, so this will now be a surprise to all his family. Noel says that all the contestants have signed Jim's helmet, which gets lots of giggles from the pilgrims. We get to see a picture of Jim and his daughter. Jim has a picture that his daughter has drawn for him and it is a red box with the number 20 on it.


Here we go...

Round 1

Jim says he hasn't really got a gameplan.

2 - £1,000 Newbie Lilly

Jim says he is kissing everyone on the left of their face as he has a cold sore. Noel offers to do the 1p depending on who reveals it

8 - £50,000 Paul

Banker time

The Banker doesn't like facing another firefighter as he normally has to reach deep into his pockets for them.

Banker's offer:

£9,000

Jim says he was going to ask the Banker if he would give Howie £200 if he dealt at the first offer! The Banker calls back and says he would.

Jim says

NO DEAL

Round 2

What a blow says Noel, he then calls a break and gets Jim to do the link...
