Noel says the banker now knows it's not Indepennydence Day and Dan could be going away with as much as £50k - just like Michelle's game says Noel - once we get the wig, we know we're motoring - the banker wants to set fire to the wig with Brian's head still in it!!

Reminded of yesterday, the banker says this is a gambler's board and this is a gambler's offer

£10,000

10k is right in my "wouldn't know what to do" area - but I'd like to see him no deal this!

Dan asks for a sweep as to what he should do and it's a mixture of deals and no deals, about half and half. He asks people to stand up in the audience and very few people say he should deal, his Mum stands up to say deal.

Dan says

DEAL

The board is now £5, £1k, £5k, £15k and £50k.

18 - £1k - would've been great, people clap, Noel asks why they're clapping

17 - £5 - NO, second component of the perfect round says Noel

8 - £50k - YES says Noel and everyone cheers

Noel says not to get too carried away as he could have £15k in his box

Banker time

He would've offered £8,500 on a £5k, vs £15k board

Wooaaoohhh! This could go either way.

Noel opens Dan's box to reveal £5,000

Box 7 contains the £15k

Dan gives a big grin and Noel says he has every reason to do a big grin as he peaked at £10,000

Wow, that was close! That looked like it was going to be a huge banker win with 3 boxes left - if that had been active play, you'd be gutted with 5k after that ending, but a great proveout!

Well done Dan!!

Viewer's competition! I hope you all entered... good luck!

The chosen box is 2 - £20,000 for the viewer

Noel says we're counting down to the summer break

I have now updated the first post with commentary for the beginning of the show.

Wicked job today, H!

And another washout game wth the £100,000 going in the first round AGAIN!

And yet, another outright win - weird how we're suddenly getting relatively small OPWs...

That game was fairly satisfying as he achieved a maddie/Kath style Opw after bad luck early on.

i probably would have taken my chances and won £5,000 as I would have expected a little more than 8.5K at 2 box. proves Maddie's £9,999 was unlikely.

yes but did anyone see billy

I didn't see Billy, and I was looking out for him!

Interestingly enough, that's the 4th time there's been the 5k/15k last pair (Oli, Mark Fong, Maddie, Dan) - and every time the 5k has been in the players box!

Noel in a dress you could sense the jinx coming.

Enjoy the £10K Dan .

On a side note does anyone know the name of that ridiculus american song was when names were picked. I cannot for life of me remember what it was called its ridiculus anyway blatent hillbilly music.

It was Rawhide. And yes, I saw Billy at the end behind the LTL boxes!

Great game anyway - I really liked Dan, much more than I thought I would based on his time on the wings, and I think I'd have dealt when he did too. Plus he has half of the best name ever.

And the blue chants were back, although it's not too bad for the crucial last box of the round.

I saw myself, although the only closeup shot I had was mainly obscured by another woman, after the £250k went.

After Dan turned down offer 4 you can see me and my Grandma waving our flags, and I'm easily spotted in the LTL boxes at the end. Soundwise, I was the one who jumped the gun a bit and cheered before everyone else when £5k was revealed in Dan's box, I was just pleased to see an OPW given that the other two I'd seen were OBWs!

Editwatch...well, dunno where to start! The recap of Frazer, Jon and Sophie's games, Asim wishing someone who I forget a happy birthday before he opened his box (his sister, or something), a hilarious bit where Dan kept forgetting that the show goes out in July and so talking about an upcoming holiday 'in May', and a hilarious shout of "IT'S BRAD PITT!" from Asim when the wig went on Brian. The blue chants which returned today actually covered the entirety of round 5 (which brilliantly was an all blue round), but they were only kept in for the penny going.

What were fun surprises was the Rawhide music at the contestant selection, and 'The Stripper' playing as Noel walked out in the dress/rolled up trousers/coloured socks, both of which had been added on the edit. I also had no idea that the Summer break was coming up as you can't hear Noel's outro at all over the clapping.

Absolutely fantastic show to be a part of, I waved that flag so much it was practically coming off the stick by the end of hours of filming, especially when we had to reshoot the 1p going and then film a continuous sequence of us all waving our flags! Also the one where the DOND dance was everyone joining hands and doing a high kicking dance to the theme tune, and a very surreal bit where the entire West and East wing gave me a round of applause for my enthusiastic 10/10 applause...although that was in a filming break!

Ah thanks for confirming Rawhide when I hear that I just think vintage America - hillbillys lol.
