I'm sure they did, but I confirmed it today.

Last box before the banker.

12 - £1

Banker time...

WOW says Maggie as the board looks fantastic with a block of 8 nice reds The banker notices that Maggie claps silently and we learn that it's because Maggie broke her wrist in the summer

Banker offers

£15,000

This looks like a great potential for another Brenda - although it could still go wrong.

The banker makes the offer of £15,000 as the last 2 shows have produced £15,000 winners with box 9.

Maggie says

NO DEAL

With the top 8 still intact, this is in the top 1% of games. Things are looking good.

14 boxes left

Average: £39,700
Offer: £15,000 (highest £15,000)

2 box median: £25,001
Fair deal: £18,675

Highest future average: £43,163 (8 boxes left)
Risk of collapse: 16%

Noel starts to jinx the round by saying historically after a NO DEAL it all starts to go wrong, but all the contestants stop him before he can finish

11 - 50p

The banker calls and tries to jinx the round by saying it will be amazing if Maggie produces an all blue round....

15 - £35,000 BANKER!!!!!!

1 - £50,000 Newbie GK

Banker time

And there go 2 of the power five, but not to worry the big 3 are still there

Noel blames the banker for jinxing the round, the banker is convinced the game is turing now......


Banker offers

£13,500

Maggie says

NO DEAL

£13,500 with a 6/11 chance of winning at least £10,000 seems a bit stingy.

11 boxes left

10 - £75,000 Oh NO!! says Maggie

The banker calls and says wouldn't it be awful if the next box was the £250,000 Noel gets Maggie to cover her ears while he tells us this....... He then calls a break

HAHA, I *beep* love Maggie - that "hurt my toe" bit was hilarious. This had better not go wrong now.

We're back
