He sounded scottish

i still havent a clue!

I agree. Not only does it distract the player and slow down the game, but it gives the impression that they know what's about to happen when the predictions are right.

There is a tendency to remember the predictions made that come true, while those who make wrong predictions are forgotten, and have nothing to lose personally by saying it.

Edit: Just changing the last part of this post.

I can understand that the contestants would want a high amount in their box before someone is picked, and then a low amount when they aren't.

Though it may seem like you would still want a high amount in your box to justify why you picked that particular box, and then ward off the current player from choosing you, the contents of the box no longer has any effect on what you will eventually win in your show, as the boxes have no memory of what they last had in them.

If you had 21 blues in your previous boxes before you are asked to play, it has no effect on the contents of your current box. So when someone in the wings says they think they have a red, in reality there is an element of selfishness in them saying this, for they want to be proved right when it is a high amount, which isn't constructive to the current player as (in theory at least) it is all random.

What I'm saying is obvious, but it happens on so many shows I thought I'd make a point out of it.

Some more comments about the show...

Noel tells the players what not to do, "not the £75k, not the £250k". Is this the first time that he does this?
Banker offers £8,400 with 8 boxes left, the reds are £10k, £20k, £75k and £250k.
During the squashdown when the amounts have stopped moving, the amounts lose detail and are oddly spaced from one another. When they appear on screen again, the amounts have regained their detail and are normally spaced.
Banker offers £25,000 with two blues, £20k, £75k and £250k. She ask some of the players on the wings what they would do, they say no deal, which is unusual for comments this early on in the show.
The proveout offers don't appear on the screen.
All of the amounts on the side of the screen slide off when the amounts are discovered, instead of the last two staying on screen until the end.

The seals were originally stuck in place and there was a problem in the early shows. The heat from the studio lights etc was making the glue start to melt, so the whole seal was slipping down the box. But no seals were broken or boxes opened other than in the gameplay.

if you look now, they're screwed into place.

But how comes the seal was back to normal when they were opeining Rachels box?

Perhaps they stuck it back on with new glue if the heat had caused it to run?

The seal has fell off the box 'Auditer, Auditer!'

Speaking about Auditers, yesturday it was Adjudicator, today it was Auditor

Lyndsey is worse than Maurice

50p-£250,000-£250,000-£100

Lyndsey will be the worst. I know how many times she has the £250,000 and it's a lot for 12 shows.

Not to mention that she looks a bit like Aileen, the first 'Black Widow'...

My thoughts exactly!

yeah... she dishes out what aileen did lol

ye she does look similar

Also, Haleem was a bit of BW as well

I didn't see what he had on Wednesday (I was out), but he's only had one big one so far from what I've seen, and he plays tonight.

here are the stats for Haleem:

CAUTION: SPOILER AHEAD

£100-£10,000-£100,000-£250,000-£35,000

Who had what in Anita's game?
