Conrad's game today.

Noel says he never knows what will happen in the game; we see a repeat of the disruptive pilgrim from yesterday's game, and the Banker's reaction to her!

Had the £15,000 for the last two games... before that, £10,000 and before that £15,000

Conrad has Box 2 today.

Conrad Kita, from Barking, originally Uganda, a residential childcare worker. He has a photo of his chess playing partner, who is in the audience, along with his sisters. He also has a knight from his glass chess set.

Here we go...

Quite a fast intro!

I actually don't mind all red opening rounds as long as the top 3 aren't discovered...

Round 1

Box 22 with Roy - £3,000

Box 5 with Jemma - £50,000

Conrad says he can sort this out.

Box 11 with Kev - £15,000

You like your reds, says Noel.

Box 1 with Nicole - £5,000

Noel says we haven't had an all-red start for a while.

Box 6 with Neil - £250,000

Banker time...

And just when I said it... The £250k goes

2nd all red opening round of the year. Still no all blue opening round so far this year.

When was the last time we had an all-red round?

Conrad says he's going to turn this around. The Banker laughs down the phone once again! He says Conrad is his polar opposite, except when it comes to chess.

Noel calls a break...

Maggie, 21st February.

Comeback is at 13 minutes past...

7 REDS IN A ROW! Can he get ANOTHER all red round?!

4 REDS left at only ROUND 2?!

Teresa = MUTE!

We're back...

Round 2

Box 21 with Laura - £10,000

Six in a row, says Noel! Conrad says it's mad. Noel says no-one has ever taken all the reds out in one go.

Box 3 with newbie Marcia - £1,000

This is madness, says Conrad. Noel says we've not had one like this for a very long time. He says nine reds in a row in the current record. (Can anyone clarify that?)

Some more banter about death with Teresa next.

Box 17 with Teresa - £5

Banker time...

So what are the odds of taking 7 reds in a row from the start?

Noel says there's still a chance that the four reds will stay to the end. The Banker says this won't be one of the lowest second offers ever, as the four remaining reds are serious sums of money.
