Next round

14 - £1,000

13 - 1p

Noel calls a break before the last box

Box 4 serves its purpose - to deliver good!

Bar Carltons game

Jo is really pretty. That Mash guy is really lucky.

We're back

Last box before the banker

17 - £750

Another FANTASTIC round for Jo

Banker time

Banker says he can get rid of Jo for a bargain price!!!!!

Banker offers

£18,000

Wow, another round with 5 of the original 8 still intact! Things are looking very good again, can it stay good though?

8 to 2:
2 top boxes in the final 2: 36%
1 top box in the final 2: 54%
No top boxes in final 2: 11%

The situation at the eight-box stage:


10p
£50
£250
£10000
£20000
£35000
£75000
£250000

Three blues and five reds.

This configuration always worries me. The chances of her hitting two or possibly even three reds this coming round are pretty high. Hit the wrong red, and the banker will punish her. This offer deserves serious consideration.

The offer is: £18,000


Joseph thinks the offer should have been around the £25K mark. Like me, he's worried about her hitting a high red, but thinks there is another deal there.

Jo is having a really hard time making the decision.

I think she is going to deal.

Joseph says there is another deal in the board and is backed up by a few more contestants. Mally also agrees that there is another deal there, and gets a red card for a remark about Jo's boyfriend

Jo says she is ready but Noel gives a little speech and Jo says she is not ready now.

Jo says

NO DEAL

Next round

9 - £75,000

7 - £20,000

22 - £50 Great relief all round there!!!

Banker time........

Noel builds up the tension and then calls a break before he will reveal the offer....

AND Brazil score just before half-time 1-0

Jo said No deal to £18K. A brave decison that looks to have paid off.

10p
£250
£10000
£35000
£250000

The offer will be coming after the break....

I'd like to think it will be in the vicinity of £30K. I'd also like to think that Jo will take this next offer. She seemed to really struggle at the last offer, and I'm not convinced she has the belief to go all the way.

Here's how it looks with 3 boxes to go...

5 to 2:
2 top boxes in the final 2: 30%
1 top box in the final 2: 60%
No top boxes in final 2: 10%

We're back

Noel reveals the offer of

£31,000

Jo asks for a sweep, but after the struggle she had with the decision last time I think she would be best to deal

Jo says

DEAL

£31,000

I think that is walking money for Jo.

(Mind you, I said that last time at £18,000 !!!)

When Mally played he had the £250K in his box all the time. Does Jo have the £250K???

Jo asks for a sweep. For once, there are a lot of DEALS.

Jo asks the audience to stand up for a NO DEAL, again, very few people stand up - the majority decision seems to be 'take the money'.

Jo asks for the question.

DEAL !!

Proveout time

15 - 10p

21 - £250

19 - £250,000 YESSSS

Banker would have offered £18,000

Jo says she would have taken the £18,000

Jo has box 2 which contains £35,000

Box 18 has the £10,000

The last two boxes remaining are £10000 and £35000.

The offer would have been £18,000

Jo says if she was playing, she would have taken it.

Jo had the £35K all along.

Box 18 had the £10K.

Not a lot of difference between £31K and £35K, so I don't think Jo will be too upset!

Viewers Comp:

Box 2 has £10K - the biggest number - AGAIN - fix, fix, fix!!!

No roll-over. Missed the winners name. Sorry! (It wasn't me, so who cares?)

Great game this one was, and it was good to see Mally back in the audience.
