That is a great offer says Al, but he wants to focus on the game and he wants to play. Al says when Fi was around the back of the studio the other day he noticed that there was 'Al 1' written on the scenery and he wondered if that was a sign. Noel gets the camera to show a shot of the piece of scenery and it does show 'Al 1'. Al asks one side of the wings to give advice for dealing and the the other wing advice for no dealing. Al gets various bits of advice, he then puts his good luck card from his children which has box 11 drawn on it onto box 11.

Al says

NO DEAL

Well I did think he was dealing there. Hopefully the boxes will be kind...

GET IN!!!!!!!!!!!

Well at least we know nobody talked him into declining that last offer

He has to take this in his position. He doesn't?

Round 6

Noel asks over 5 and a half years has the first male quarter millionaire turned up

19 - £1 Wilf

I have a 1 in 4 chance now says Al

16 - 50p Abbey

You are nearly there says Noel.

18 - £250,000 Toby

Banker time with £100 and £5,000 remaining

AAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, he gave it his very best shot.

But that £17k really was insultingly low...

It's a game says Al. The Banker says after bravery of that scale it would be inappropriate to celebrate, but we then hear him laughing down the phone!

Banker's offer:

£2,000.01

You have to say he was asking for trouble in the circumstances.

Al asks if the Banker will offer the SWAP. The Banker calls back and says he will offer the SWAP.

Al says

NO DEAL

Noel asks

SWAP or NO SWAP


Al says

SWAP

But that £17k was a terrible offer - given that he was incredibly brave to turn down £12k the second time...

Al now has box 11 which Noel opens and reveals £100

Box 17 with Rob contains the £5,000

How on earth do you sum up that game asks Noel. Al says he came along to gamble and everyone knew that, and he hopes someone else will come along and take the same gamble but actually win the big one. Noel does a plug for Al's kitchen and bathroom fitting

What circumstances?

Other than being offered a low ball 17k which he had to turn down, having already knocked back a much more dealable 12 grand.

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought that myself , Personally thought he would have offered something like 21K for rewarding his bravery for turning down the 12K

Sorry to say, but turning down 17k when 4 of the 5 boxes remaining were well under that amount? The man's a total prat, gambling it all and losing the chance to get rid of his money worries and have some left over.

Based on the board, I probably would've gone at 12k, the deal before.

His personal circumstances. And did you not see he lost his only sizeable safety net in round 5?!?

Not disagreeing at £12k was good though, and I would probably have taken it myself.

hard luck, but a refreshing change to get to the 2 box. Pity they don't offer a free holiday or some such to encourage more contestants to go to the end.

How many times do I have to say this?!

That £17k was insultingly low given what had gone before!!!

And there have been far, far more stupid No Deals in the past...
