Stephen's game today.

Noel says one of the most fascinating aspects of the show is the relationship between the contestants and the pilgrims, some contestants have no contact with them during their game, but there are others who constantly want support and shout for it, then yesterday there was Andre who had people in tears when he went away with his £6,000.

Stephen has box 12 today.

Stephen is a teacher, but now not a teacher as he is unemployed. Stephen was teaching away from home, but missed home, so left his job to back back home with all his friends and family. We get to see some of Stephen's family photos, one is of him and his brother when they were younger visiting father christmas. Stephen also has a piece of fabric which he reveals are a piece of his lucky pants!

Banker time

The Banker asks Vera about 'Dippy' and she tells him it is a penguin that emails her from the Isle of Wight.

The Banker asks Stephen to jump on the balloons

£1,000

Stephen goes for a chat with some people, and he asks if Linda is in the audience as she has been there for all of his shows, and Noel says that she has been there for nearly every show produced. Noel gives Stephen the microphone so he can go and have a chat with Linda

Stephen says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break....

Is that the "famous" DoND lady who's been in the audience for about 3 million shows?

That was an intriguing aside to Linda. When I was there there was mention of a couple who had been on every show but not sure if that was one of them. More and more the players are speaking to random audience members or relatives of other players.

We're back
