Paula's game today.

Stephen talks about Jamie's game yesterday. He speaks to Maz who is really going to miss Jamie, who says Jamie is going to her wedding, and she invites Stephen. He then goes to speak to Luke (now stood in Jamie's position) who is getting married in June, in a zoo! He then speaks to Mick briefly about if a Jaffa Cake is a cake or a biscuit.

Paula has box 3.

She does a dance at the top of the walk of wealth which everyone copies. This is Paula's 29th show and she's finally in the seat. She is a social worker from Birmingham, she talks a little bit about her job. Her daughter Renee is in the audience who talks about her mum. She has a partner, Andy, but she forgot his name to begin with. She has a tiger's eye bracelet as a lucky charm.

Paula is saving 4 numbers to the end, her box is one of those numbers. She's going to start by picking birthdays.

1 - Kev - £50

8 - Ush - £5,000

The Banker says Paula is a good character and this should be a fun game. He says Paula is dropping reds like Maz is dropping bridesmaids. He talks about Paula having a hunch about her boxes - he asks about her hunch. She says she has at least £10,000 in her box and he agrees!

BANKER'S OFFER

£1,830

Paula says:

NO DEAL

Decent opener by ITV Banker standards, but obviously still nowhere near high enough to be genuinely tempting.

Interesting the Banker admitted he thinks Paula has a big amount in her box. We got be in for quite a scrap if the big money stays long enough.

Round 2

Paula talks a bit more about the work she's done with young people. She says she's passionate about helping people and advocating for people who are 'invisible'. Renee talks about how proud she is of her mum. She wants to buy a Mercedes C-class car, but doesn't have a license.

The Banker says money matters, it's hard to get your hands on it. He references Luke getting married in a zoo. He says he's doing this on behalf of all the pedestrians in the UK!

Round 3

Paula goes for 6 - the connection with it having the £100,000 a few times is mentioned

6 - Kirk - £10

Paula goes for Jemma, who has a feeling about her box 9, she's had 9 blues in a row. The only red she's had was £100,000 - Paula changes her mind.

10 - Wendy - £4,000

Very promising game at the halfway mark!

Round 4

4 - Aysha - £7,500

Lee says he has a bad feeling about his box. Paula wonders if that's because he had the 100k yesterday.

18 - Lee - £500

Kev tells Paula to go with what she feels.

9 - Jemma - £50,000

The Banker thanks Jemma for the last box. The Banker says this offer is more generous than it needs to be.

BANKER'S OFFER

£5,855

Some boos greet that offer.

Paula says

NO DEAL

Sadly unlike the Channel 4 Banker when his generous late game offers era ended the ITV Banker isn't even making the earlier offers more generous to make up for it.

Hopefully Paula gives the Banker the big money spanking he deserves with these offers.

Round 5

Paula goes for 21, but Renee has a bad feeling about that box.

20 - Maz - 50p

Mickelle is back and Paula asks her opinion about her box.

12 - Mickelle - £25,000
