She was crackers :shock:

I thought "what the hell" when the game started and mostly thought that all the way through - poor Noel looked like he was trying to jolly her along out of fear! You could see he was really jumpy and probably wanted to strap her to the chair!

Mind you she has always been a bit emotional, she had a little outburst yesterday even, during Nalini's game. Hope she enjoys her money...maybe a visit to a "health" spa wouldn't be a bad thing - she ought to take Betty too

Granted, I only saw the final ten minutes of the game but Helen seemed sweet to me. I can only guess at what she must have done earlier on to piss off so many of you.

Don't get me wrong, she wasn't evil or anything, just, um, strange and unpredictable - in a slightly unhinged way. Nice person I'm sure, and I wish her well

Helen refuses to go to the pound table!!! :shock:

Noel goes over to her and pleads with her to take her place, she still refuses so Noel says he will have to go to the audience for a player!!! He asks who in the audience would like to play for a chance of £250,000, and this spurs Helen to take the 'walk of wealth'

Helen has box 11 today.

Helen is involved in the licensing trade and training in all aspects of it, she has some pics which we see, there is a pic of her dad who passed away 2 years ago.

Here we go..................

LOL! That was really funny. I have never seen a player refuse to go to the 'pound table' before. :shock:

I really want to see the start out of curiosity - no one to fulfill that for me by maybe sending it or putting it on youtube

Well it's all discussed earlier in the thread so no need to guess.

Personally, I found her very tedious and it's hard to get interested in the show when the contestant is annoying. Shame they couldn't have had somebody better for the 300th.

Indeed I read all that but couldn't visualise how it managed to irk so many people. Sure, it sounds a little bit of an odd start to procedings but I wouldn't have thought it would affect how I viewed the player for the rest of the show. Maybe I just have to see it for myself.

Probably. She came across as being quite aggressive and not very pleasant, really. She didn't do much later in the programme to show herself any differently, really.

I suppose it's human nature to take to some people more than others. It seems a lot of people didnt take to her, though.

Cheers for posting that Daniel. I missed the very start of the show by making a cuppa. Wondered what all the fuss was about!

Well done, Helen on your £21k - a good OPW! A very... er... interesting and unusual game...

Haha! It's quite funny watching it back, I love the way Noel holds the chair up!

Then he nearly gets it caught in the phone cord!

It is all in the editing isn't it surely. The show makes people look how they want to. Does not make them bad people. I thought she was just excited and obviously nervous. She clearly enjoyed her time on the show adn has been so supportive of others whilst on the wing. It seems that recently on here people just run the contestants down :cry:

I don;t like it - especially when it is personal. These people are only Jo Bloggs off the street after all.

At the end of the day most of us would love to be in their shoes and who knows how we would reach - I would probably p+ss my pants just being that close to Noel!!

Well done Helen - enjoy your money - I think you were great x ;-)

Thanks very much for that upload Daniel.

Watching it now, I can't believe how fierce she was at the start there. If it hadn't been set-up I don't think there would have been so much laughter, and there would have been more shock. .
