Sophia's game today.

We get to see a montage of clips from the week so far.

After Friday's game I'd expect an early deal.

Sophia has box 19.

Sophia is a social worker from Surrey, who works with young children, and she enjoys her job. We get to see a photo of her with her daughter, and she says the nicknames she has for her daughter are based on various burgers! She has a bracelet with her for good luck.

Here we go...

Unavoidable train-wrecks usually don't have a huge effect on future games. For instance, Tommy won £45,000 the day after 2 completely unavoidable train-wrecks.

So now the Banker is rushing the players?

ENOUGH WITH THE SPEECHES!!

You mean Tommy won £45,000.

Another all blue opening round?...

It was probably in her profile that she does things slowly.

Round 1

Sophia has no system. She takes ages to choose a box so Noel reminds us it's an hour show!

2 - Tim - £250

The banker rings and says they need to open their boxes quickly to save time! He shouts "hurry up" over the studio speakers!

5 - Ratan - £1

Sophia takes ages again, and the banker rings and says he may not survive through this show, so he nominates an executor of his will.

14 - Bryn - 10p

20 - Julian - £100

Noel says this could be an all-blue opener.

15 - Jeff - £3,000

Banker time

Is it so hard to just say a random number?!

£12,000 is rubbish!

The banker says today is his actual birthday and could be his actual death day!

£12,000 + embalming fluid

Sophia takes ages to answer the question!

Sophia says

NO DEAL


Noel calls a break...

This is ridiculous. Why is she taking so long with EVERYTHING?!

I dread how long it's going to take her to even start the UFO.

It's usually nervous players who have bad starts that start taking ages picking numbers.

Not the sort of generosity typical of brilliant opening rounds nowadays.

We might not have time for the twist

If I had a drink for each time that DOND JLS trailer is shown I'd be VERY drunk.

We're back

Round 2

Noel changes Sophia's name badge to "SLOphia"!

17 - June - £250,000

Sophia says that's slowed her down, so the banker rings and asks if anyone has supplies of food!

11 - Lewis - £50

8 - Sam - £750

Banker time

Very nice board. A stick would be reasonable...
