Christine's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel welcomes us to another day in the Dream Factory, he runs through Jay's game and tells the contestants that perhaps they should follow any "touchy feely" feelings they may have, as Jay could have benefited from his feelings in his game.

It’s an excited Christine’s turn to take the walk of wealth today, and she does so with box 11 today. Noel welcomes Christine and has to turn her box around as she puts it on the table the wrong way around! We get to see a few of Christine's pics. She has her hubby in the audience for support today and we learn they met on a blind date 43 years ago. Christine says she likes a little flutter, bingo, the lottery, Grand National, Vegas.... The list goes on.... None of this is on her file much to Noel's amusement

Christine wants a cup of tea with 4 sugars at the break

More chants!!!!

A fantastic start says Noel, and Christine tells him to tell the banker that she has her own hair, but bad eyesight!! The Banker says that is his perfect woman, and he claims 17 straight victories so far, where no-one has got the most available out of him!! He then offers £14,000, and says that is the most money that Christine will see today!! Christine says NO DEAL

That's why we like Phil says Noel! The banker says that Nathan is in his team now, and he feels genuine love for Nathan!! He then offers £10,000, and he says that he now thinks that £10,000 will be the highest Christine will win!! Christine says it's still a strong board, and its NO DEAL

Christine gets her all blue round, and Noel says this is better, and there are a lot of fallback options now. The Banker calls and offers £13,999, he says he was wrong that the last offer would be the highest for the rest of the game and was forced to raise the offer. Christine says NO DEAL

What a horrible round says Noel, as he calls it all or peanuts now. The banker says that Christine should have taken the £16,000, and offers £6,000. Noel says the banker thinks he has got Christine now and that he is the winner. Christine says DEAL

Noel wonders if Christine should have hung in as he has a funny feeling about box 11!!
19 - £1 It would have been the perfect start says Noel
18 - £100 Groans

It’s time for The Banker with £50 and £100,000 remaining, and he is laughing!! He would have offered £36,000, Christine is in tears and Noel calls her husband down for a cuddle. Christine says that the £100,000 is in 13, but Noel says he still has a feeling about box 11

Jay's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel says we are up for a scrap today, after Di's disastrous game yesterday! He sums up her show as an odd game, in that she went too late and then too early.

It’s Jay’s turn to take the walk of wealth today, and he has box 19, he gets a very big cheer as he makes his way to the pound table. Jay is a student from Liverpool, and he is studying to work in child welfare. Noel says The Banker is determined to make Jay go away with as little as possible, but Jay says there is no way that will happen. He has quite a few of his family members in the audience for support today, and we also see a few of his pics. Jay has a financial target and he says it's the figure on the bottom right

Noel says that Jay was one box away from a very being in a strong position, but he has now allowed the banker to put Jay in a very tricky situation. The banker thinks that Jay is trying to intimidate him at the moment, but he won't be... He offers £20,000

Noel says that's a clever offer, and someone in the audience starts chanting NO DEAL NO DEAL.... Noel grabs the microphone and finds the chanter and asks her what she would do here!!

Noel opens Jay’s box 19 and reveals £35,000 Arrrghhh says Noel…
Box 18 (Jamie) contains 1p

Noel closes out the show saying that if Geoff had a little more conviction he could have won £35,000, but if he had a little more spirituality and kept his Nan’s birthday box in play, he could have won the £250,000 as he would have been offered the swap!!

Di's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel welcomes us to the dream factory wearing his raspberry ripple shirt today!! He re-titles the show this week to "I think I'm going to regret this", running through both Kelsie's and Rich's games. Noel asks for no regrets today and wants The Banker humbled today!

It’s Di’s turn to take the walk of wealth today, and she does so with box 11, she looks very shocked at being picked and a little concerned about her top... Di is from Chelmsford, Essex - She says she is the original Essex girl. She has her husband in the audience for support today.

Noel talks about Di's interest in Naturism, and he tells her that she is not the only one and says all the crew are well!! There is then a clip of all the crew in the studio today walking around naked with carefully placed red boxes!!




Di has a system if she can remember it…

Round 3
Di says she is going to do something different now and misses out 19

He then offers £44,000, Di says she doesn't know if she should sit or stand! Noel says it's a massive gamble at the moment, and he asks the audience to stand if they would deal - Most do... Kerry points out that there is no fallback if the £250,000 goes now and she won't see the £44,000 again if it does. Di says she will regret this... NO DEAL

Rich's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel welcomes us to The Dream Factory and the Crazy Chair that causes so many problems. He talks about Kelsie's emotional game yesterday and how she fell for The Banker's charm and was seduced into an early deal when the £250,000 was available...

It’s Rich’s turn to take the walk of wealth today and he has box 15. Will Mystic Rich predict his way to a big win today? Rich says he is nervous sat in the chair, and he shows Noel his lucky charm, which is 3 coins linked by a ribbon. He also shows us his pics, and reveals that he lives at home with his parents at the moment, although would like a big win so he can move next door! Rich likes to gamble and once put £500 on a horse after a tip, and it came in second!!!

12 - 1p (Theresa) BIG Cheers

Noel says he thinks Rich guessed right there as he said he was looking for the 1p and The Banker should call!! Noel forgets that Rich had already picked 3 boxes, so he hangs up on The Banker and says it’s not fair!!! The Banker calls back and says Rich needs to think carefully about this next offer of £17,000. It's a fantastic offer says Rich, and Jay agrees. Di tells him she thinks it's worth him taking a gamble here, and Noel asks if she has been trying to get Rich out of his clothes! As she is a naturist! Rich says NO DEAL

Noel tells The Banker we have been having fun with the side game, but the board is still strong. The Banker offers £19,500, and that receives groans from all around the studio. Rich says that is a lot of money especially if you picture it sat there in front of you, but NO DEAL

It’s time for The Banker with £10 and £35,000 remaining.

£35,000 would be a very nice amount to take away now says Noel, The Banker offers
£14,000
. Noel asks if it would make any difference if Rich knew he could have the SWAP, Rich says he would always intended to keep 17 and 19 until the end, so yes it would make a difference. The Banker calls back and guarantees the SWAP! Rich says he thinks he might regret this, but DEAL
Noel does the hypothetical SWAP!!! Rich swaps his box 15 for box 19.

It’s Kelsie’s, or Kylie as Noel now calls her turn to take the walk of wealth today, and she has box 16 today. Noel reveals that it was Patrick who originally named Kelsie Kylie...

Kelsie nearly picks another box, but realises that she has picked 5 already. The banker says he has been looking forward to Kelsie’s game, as he liked her when she wore her glasses, he likes women that wear glasses as without them he looks a blur to them!! He thinks he could be in a lot of problems today!! He offers £12,500, Kelsie says it's a good offer and a lot of money, but there is still a lot to play for... NO DEAL

The Banker then offers £16,500, and Kelsie says it’s a very good offer, and it's a lot of money. Noel says it's a very powerful board as well, and the £250,000 hasn’t been at the table for a while.

Shame about the £10,000 going says Noel, although it's still a very strong board. The Banker offers £21,000, OMG says Kelsie, and she gets some advice from Di, who says there are still 4 fantastic values there and you have at least one more round in the game. Just as Kelsie is about to tell Noel her decision, The banker calls back and raises the offer to £23,000 - He then calls back again and raises it to £25,000!!!!! Kelsie says NO DEAL

It's got to go up now says Kelsie, and Noel agrees. She says she wants the confetti now. The Banker would like to speak to Kelsie! She says he is a really lovely man!! Noel tells her not to let The Banker get to her, as it’s all games!! The Banker offers £26,000, it’s because Kelsie said she would have gone at that amount 2 rounds ago!!!

Just as Noel asks the question The Banker calls back to talk to Kelsie again, he asks if she is sure she knows what she is about to do, she tells him £36,000 would be a nice amount. He ups the offer to £29,000!! Kelsie says DEAL

Noel says that a negotiation has never occurred on the show before, but that Kelsie was seduced there and she could have got more out of the banker! The banker calls back and tells Noel that he believes he has saved loads of money there, and she was going to be a big winner and he wants to rub her nose in it now!!

Round 6 - Proveout round
21 - £750 (Di) Would have been a great start says Noel

6 - £100 - GROANS for the perfect round

It’s time for The Banker with £75,000 and £250,000 remaining. Noel asks if Kelsie has totally blown it here and squandered the chance to be the second £250,000 winner. The Banker would have offered £160,000, and he says NEVER try and negotiate with him..... Kelsie breaks down on hearing the offer, and says she couldn’t have risked it because of her children, and Noel replies well that is a very good reason.

Noel asks would there have been confetti, and would the place have erupted?

Noel opens Kelsie’s box 16 and reveals £250,000!! There is total shock all around the studio, as Kelsie breaks down in tears. Box 9 (Charlie) contains the £75,000.

Noel tells Kelsie to remember that she has got £29,000 and it could have gone horribly wrong. He tells her she was totally seduced by The Banker and although he appeared he was a really nice man, they were all games that eventually worked.

Nigel's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Poor Noel has trouble with his finger clicking today while doing his intro!! He welcomes a revved up studio audience to the dream factory. He tries to sum up Steven's game from yesterday, and ends up banging his head on the table!!! He has a little rant about how Steven went way too early with such a strong board!! Is he upset, of course he is!!!

It’s Nigel’s turn to take his place at the pound table and he has box 11, and gets a very loud cheer as he takes the walk of wealth. Nigel wants to do something before he starts, and asks Noel to walk up the walk of wealth and then Nigel turns to the camera and welcomes Noel to his show!! Nigel introduces Lisa who is in the audience with him for support today, and tells the emotional story of how she nursed his mum while she was ill and then tragically died. Nigel would like to travel around the world and invites Lisa to join him on that adventure...

Round 1
13 - £15,000
Nigel avoids Rich, as he thinks he has a blue!!
1 - £100,000
22 - £75,000 Oh No! Oh wow says Noel
3 - £250 Cheers for the first blue
15 - £5 Newbie Theresa

In a word, OK says Nigel, and he also says he would have preferred Steven's game at the moment, but it's OK. The Banker calls and doesn’t offer any money! Instead he offers a SWAP! The swap was offered as Nigel said he would like to swap for Steven's game, Nigel says NO SWAP

Round 2
The blue chants start
4 - £500
More chants
14 - £250,000 The chants turn to groans as Rich reveals the big one
20 - 50p

That's better says Noel, and he asks Nigel about his career, and Nigel tells him about his family fish & chip business, which he is leasing out at the moment, as his parents were really involved in this, and with their loss he feels he can't deal with it at the moment. The Banker calls and offers £6,500, Nigel says NO DEAL

Round 3

10 - £750 Nigel gets the blue he wanted
More chants
21 - £10 BIG CHEERS for another blue
Noel asks if he can make a suggestion and it's to forget all the neat and tidy stuff, as Nigel needs to keep the £20,000 really. Nigel pulls up his collar, and then Noel tells him to take off 1 shoe as well to complete the messy look!!!!! Noel asks Nigel to mess up the board!!
9 - £20,000 ARGGGHHH say Noel, as Nigel does what Noel didn’t want to see

Mr Neat & Tidy has done it and has a very tidy board says Noel!!!! This offer is clever says Noel, as The Banker offers £10,000. It's very clever says Nigel, followed by NO DEAL

Round 5

You are still in this game says Noel. The banker thanks Di for her large red, and is convinced the next box will be the £35,000 and tells Nigel to get out now with his next offer of £7,500. Think carefully here says Noel, and Nigel replies NO DEAL

Round 6
Nigel wants the 1p now.... Chants start
19 - 1p BIG CHEERS as Nigel does find it
Blue chants almost start
16 - £10,000 That was a shame says Noel
7 - £1,000

It’s time for The Banker with £1 and £35,000 remaining. That is OK says Nigel, and what a game replies Noel... Noel says you could well have £35,000 sitting in front of you, and it's all about your nerve now, as the banker is going to try and break you. The banker talks about Chantelle's game, and how it was very similar to Nigel’s game in that she had £35,000 and a low blue, he tried to make her leave with £12,000 which she refused, he now wants to make Nigel leave with an offer of £13,000.

Nigel says he should have done the swap now as he didn’t want the box he has! Rich asks if Nigel had box 17 in front of him would he go for it, and Nigel tells him not to ask that!! The banker calls back and tells Nigel that if he does decide to play on he WILL get the SWAP offer... Nigel says DEAL

Nigel says if he did play on he would have taken the swap as 17 is his mum’s birthday, so Noel does the box swap for the proveout!!

Noel opens box 17 and reveals £35,000!! Box 11 contains the £1

Steven's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel in flower mode again with his shirt choice today, not so bright today though! Noel says this is one of the best weeks ever for the banker, in that he has only paid out just over £6,000. He hopes for a bigger win today, and a player who is determined to pull off that victory.

It’s Steven’s turn in the crazy chair today, and he has box 8. Steven Norman from Kent, works for an accountancy firm, and Noel says it's another financial battle with the banker... We get to see a photo of Steven's friends, and one of them is in the audience for support today, we also get to see a photo of his mum.

Round 1
Steven has a few lucky numbers which is he keeping until the end
3 - 1p Big cheers for the perfect start
14 - £10,000
19 - £50
Tess next and she is a little worried about the banker's health with all the illness going around the studio...
1 - £100
22 - £1

Great, that is a marvellous start says Noel. The banker says he is on a roll and this is going to be his greatest week ever, he also says that Steven could be a tricky opponent. He has looked in Steven's file and checked out the advice he has given other contestants, he makes an opening offer of £17,500. The banker gives a VAT offer!! He has noticed that Steven's advice was to always tell the contestants to think what the money meant to them, Steven says NO DEAL

Round 2
20 - £10
Steven goes to Rich, and asks if he has any feelings about his box!! Noel says mystic mess is the not the best at getting these right! He thinks he has a large red
1 - £20,000 Rich was right
4 - £500 Big cheers as newbie Jamie delivers a blue

One tiny glitch in the round says Noel, and Steven says he is very pleased with the game so far. Steven reveals that he had a dream about having a chat with the banker in a shopping centre! The banker says he is not a hoody and doesn't hang around shopping centres!!! He has noticed on the file that Steven said he would carry on playing as long as 3 of the power 5 were in play, and he did think of offering swaps all through the game!!! He doesn’t though and offers £23,000. Steven says that is a very nice sum of money and he would always say to think carefully about the offers. He says that if £23,000 were sat in front of him he would grab it and run! Noel replies, well it is, and is a little confused why he doesn't take it then!! Steven says yes, but look at the board with the power 5 intact! Steven says NO DEAL

Round 3
21 - £5,000
7 - £35,000
The blue chants start
18 - 10p Big cheers
Noel wonders how the banker will play it now with the £35,000 going. The banker says it's a very strong board, and offers £27,500. Steven says it's a brilliant offer, and he thought the banker might stick. He asks for a sweep of the contestant’s opinions, and everyone replies No Deal, and he then goes to his friend who also says No Deal. Steven says DEAL… That decision stuns EVERYONE in the studio. Noel says you naughty boy you caught us all out there!! Steven tells Noel that although it goes against what he said earlier about playing on with 3 of the power in play, he had a bad feeling about the next rounds, so didn’t want to risk anything. Noel takes us over to the board to show the dream scenario with 4 of the power 5 remaining, and wonders if Steven has pulled off a great result, or if the banker has one of his biggest victories.

Round 4 – Proveout round
16 - 50p The confused audience clap!! No that was a perfect start says Noel
5 - £3,000 No it would have been fine says Noel
Noel thinks even with the £250,000 going now the offer would have gone up
9 - £1,000

You went too soon says Noel, that would have been a wonderful round. The Banker would have offered £55,000, the whole studio is in shock at that offer. Steven says that he had such a bad feeling about that round, and that is why he dealt, Steven says he would have dealt for £55,000.

Round 5 - Proveout round
12 - £15,000 No, again it's absolutely fine - You could be heading for the hall of fame here for all the wrong reasons says Noel
15 - £75,000 Yes says Noel
17 - £100,000 No, you got the £100,000 but not the big one says Noel

It would have been a disastrous round says Noel, but was it enough? The Banker would have offered £66,000!! Noel says the banker would have had to go up then....

Round 6 - Proveout round
6 - £50 NO, it would have been a great start says Noel
This would have been one of the best games we have ever had if you were still in play says Noel!!
10 - £750 This would have been perfection says Noel
Quarter of a million chants start!!!
11 - £250,000 Big cheers and relief

It’s time for The Banker with £50 and £50,000 remaining.

There is a lot of relief in the studio says Noel, although you blew £55,000 and then £66,000!! The banker would have offered £17,500, and Steven says he is disappointed that he didn't have the courage to play on a couple more rounds

Noel opens Steven’s box 8 and reveals £50,000!

Box 13 contains £5

Noel apologises to us at home, as he expects we all threw stuff at the TV screen when Steven said DEAL!!!

Sarah's Deal or No Deal Game Report

A very flowery shirted Noel welcomes us to the dream factory today, he talks about Ian's game yesterday and how he gave a masterclass in how to play the game, even though he had a bad outcome.

It's Sarah's turn in the crazy chair, and she has box 9 today. She has her partner in the audience for support today and we learn they met while working at Mac Donald's. She also reveals that she loves even numbers, so expect the banker to play on this in his offers at some point. Sarah has a fluffy pink flamingo for luck with her, who is called Flink.

The chants nearly start, but luckily Miles opens his box

ARRGGGHHHH More chants!!!!
21 - £20,000
Some wise words from Tess next... Followed of course by chants!!!!
13 - £50,000 That soon stops the chants!!

Noel talks about Laura's game and how she turned around a bad start, and he also says the £250,000 is overdue now... The banker says that No Head Ted was the only toy he had when he was young, and Noel replies that this explains a lot about him!!! The Banker offers £8,000, and the offer is greeted by total silence from the audience. Sarah says NO DEAL

Round 4
Guess what? Yes, more chants!!!
5 - £1,000
Even more chants!!!
7 - 50p Well the chants have to work sometimes
Yet more chants
4 - £3,000

It's OK says Noel, although taking out another red means you're going to have to go on to get bigger offers. The banker says that No Head Ted is not smiling!! He is worried about both Laura and psychic Sarah, and he says he offered both of them £14,500 at this stage and it didn't work… So for Sarah he's going to try a different approach, he offers £20,000. Sarah says this is hard now, and she turns to her partner who says this is totally up to you... Sarah says NO DEAL

Round 5
More chants
10 - £250,000 Yet again after a brave decision a number goes says Noel, and he asks for positive thinking from everyone now…
Chants again
1 - £100
More chants
14 - £5,000 It's alright says Noel

The Banker offers £5,900, and he says he has given Sarah an escape route with that offer. Noel asks is it time to say goodbye, or is it time to win the £35,000? Sarah says DEAL

Round 6 - Proveout round
16 - £250
3 - 1p groans as the 1p goes...
2 - £1 NO NO says Noel it was the perfect round…

It would have been the perfect round if only Sarah had chosen to play on... It's time for The Banker now with £500 and £35,000 remaining.

The Banker says long live No Head Ted, and would have offered £17,000. Sarah says she would have dealt for the £17,000, and Noel says there is still a chance you could have had a small victory over the banker by revealing you had the £500.

Noel opens box 9 and reveals £35,000! Sarah asks if she can have another go...

Box 18 contains the £500

Ian is a civil servant, but can't reveal what he does, although he does say he works for job centre plus.

He also asks which game show Jean will be applying to after this show to win the loads of money that has been predicted for her, as it won’t be in this show!!!

Betty's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel welcomes us to the rather pink looking dream factory as all the boxes are a Mother's Day pink. Noel runs through the interesting week we've had so far, and talks about the MatchPlay that is on offer for us in the viewer's Competition.

It’s Betty’s turn to take the walk of wealth and she has box 19 today. All of the contestant's have little badges on with pictures of their mums on. Betty has her family in the audience with her for support today. We get to see a picture of Betty's family and they point out a familiar looking face in it, it’s Aileen who has already been a contestant on the show - The original Black Widow. Noel has a special surprise for Betty and it's that Aileen is in the studio as well and she comes out to greet them and take her seat in the audience.

Just before the start of the round the banker calls and says he is going to drop something in.... He is going to give every mum in the audience £50 if Betty can find the 1p in the first round.

Round 1
5 - £50
1 - £100 Good start says Noel
7 - £250
8 - £750 Wow says Noel, you are doing what Sheran did. Betty says this is looking good isn't it.
10 - £500

It’s a fantastic opening round for Betty. This is one of the best opening rounds ever says Noel, Betty is a little disappointed that she didn't find the 1p, she gets a little confused and bewildered about the board. The phone rings and Betty says "Oh no the man in black"!! The banker offers £16,500, Noel asks Aileen to explain that Betty can carry on here and play another round. Betty says it's a lovely offer, but NO DEAL

Betty apologises, as she didn't hit the 1p in the last round
13 - £3,000
16 - £1,000 YES says Noel... WOW this is amazing...

Betty tries to take a sip of tea from her mug, and struggles as it's so deep!! The banker calls and tells her to be careful and don't go in the deep end!! He then asks if Betty watched Aileen's game, and Aileen confirms that she did and to be wary of mum as she is very switched on. The banker wonders if he is being conned here!! He then offers £20,000 + A lifejacket!! Noel goes to Betty's family for their opinion, and they reply they are so proud of her and to carry on doing what she is doing... Betty says NO DEAL

Blue chants start
20 - £1

Perfect and just what you needed there says Noel. The banker says he is not totally comfortable, Betty asks why and Noel replies because of the board. The Banker then offers £28,000.

Betty says NO DEAL

Round 5
Blue chants start
14 - £5 BIG CHEERS

Round 6 - Proveout round
11 - 50p A few groans for that one
17 - £20,000 Newbie Steve - It's not enough says Noel
4 - £10

It’s time for The Banker with £35,000 and £75,000 remaining. It was the perfect round says Noel, but it’s too late, The Banker would have offered £50,000. Ohhh what a shame says Noel, you were seconds away from an extra £30,000...

Noel opens Betty’s box 19 and reveals £35,000, and Box 15 contains £75,000

The banker calls back and says he has had his mum on the phone!!! The banker's mum pointed out that being a mum is the hardest job in the world and she will not tuck the banker into bed tonight and will not read him a story unless he gives all the mums the £50 each!!!

A very stripy Noel welcomes us to the Dream Factory today, he encourages us to join in the fun by entering the viewer’s comp, and then reveals that for Mother's Day on Sunday it will be a Match Play for the viewers comp. Noel runs through Doug's game and his fantastic win, and tells all the contestants to follow Doug's lead and be as determined as he was...

It’s Sheran’s turn in the crazy chair and she has box 21 today. She tells Noel she is very scared, and also that she hasn't got her slimming pants on today!! She says her husband looks like one of the actors on Eastenders, so wants to know if Noel is available!! Noel gets a little kiss as well!!

He is tempted to make his cagey offer of £26,000, but instead offers £30,000. Noel points out how strong the board is as the reds are mainly untouched with only 2 blues remaining. Sheran says NO DEAL

The banker says the £75,000 was significant in that round and offers £24,500, Noel wonders if the game has peaked at £30,000 and £24,500 is a wise exit fee. Nigel says it's a good offer, and Steven says whereas normally he would say play on, he thinks she should deal.... Sheran says NO DEAL

It’s time for The Banker with 1p and £20,000 remaining. Noel says it could be a draw here as you accepted £20,000 and you could have £20,000 in your box. The banker would have offered £6,900.

Noel opens Sheran’s box 21 and reveals 1p, there are big screams from Sheran as she beats the banker and manages to avoid a potential disaster.

It’s Doug’s turn in the crazy chair today and he has box 18, which Noel carries over to the pound table for him while he takes the walk of wealth. Noel introduces him as "Dirty Doug"!!!!! Noel shows a picture of Doug at the beach with 2 scantily clad ladies! Doug has a thank you card for all the staff and crew who have looked after and treated him so well during his time on the show.

The banker has a gift for Doug, it's Lady Killer Body Wash, which comes with warnings of bad backs and possible marriage!!! He says it's from one dirty old man to another!! Noel asks Doug is he ready for this now, and Doug replies yes I am and I'll have box number.... Noel cracks up and asks does he know how this game works!!

A good round says Noel and the audience think so as well as they cheer. Doug is looking around for another box again, and Noel has to pull him up again, he tells Doug that he is concentrating on the women and not the boxes!!! The banker asks why did Doug put a target in the book if he is going all the way until the end, Doug says he can look at it if he wants, and Noel reads it out and it's £250,000!!

Doug has done it and left a final 2 of £50,000 and £100,000. Well done says Noel you have been brilliant and you are guaranteed at least £50,000 now, he says the banker will be worried now as Doug followed through his statement of going all the way... Noel tells the banker to give it his best shot, and he replies with a final offer of £75,000.

Doug says that is a really great offer, and he says he couldn't have come up with a better offer. Doug reveals that box 14 was his favourite number, which is why it stayed until the end. Doug says DEAL

Doug says he would have liked to go all the way, but £25,000 is a lot of money.

Noel opens box 18 and reveals £100,000, and box 14 contains £50,000.

Noel closes out the show saying how different today’s show was to yesterday, where Lisa was so indecisive in her game, and today Doug who was determined in his actions and going all the way until the end.

Lisa's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel talks about the different stages that the show has gone through lately - The cautious stage - The courage stage - and now The regret stage where this week players have dealt early when there has been lots more money on offer and available to them. Noel tells the contestants not to get advice overload when playing their games and to play their own game.

It’s Lisa’s turn at the pound table today and she has box 19, and she drops some stuff from the top of her box as she takes the walk of wealth. Noel and Lisa run through the various things she has on the box, and we get to see some pics of her husband who is in the audience today and a few more of her family. We learn that Lisa is a fitness instructor. Noel says it's been a good week for high numbers coming to the table and working on the values that have appeared so far, the £75,000 should appear today!!!

Round 1
Noel goes to Kelsie who hasn't got her glasses on today, she has left them in the green room, as she was told she looked better without them!

10 - £10 Cheers for the first blue
8 - £3,000
12 - £15,000
Lisa says there doesn't appear to be as many boxes when you stand at the pound table!!
20 - £250

Noel says it's a good opening round as the power 5 is still intact. The banker says he is on a roll at the moment and it's not the best time to be playing against him! He says that Lisa is looking amazing today and looks glossy like a well-groomed horse!! Noel says it's no wonder you have been married 6 times!!! The Banker offers £10,005, Lisa says it's a really nice offer, but NO DEAL

Round 2
16 - £50,000 ARGGHHH says Noel
Noel asks how Lisa is picking her boxes, she is picking the numbers that don't mean a lot to her at the moment.
5 - £50
15 - £1

Look at that shouts Noel, pointing at the board that is very evenly balanced. The banker says that he is worried about the room now and the support that Lisa has from them. Noel and Lisa start pushing each other around!! The Banker offers £20,004, Noel goes to Lisa's husband who says it's a very strong board at the moment and to play her own game. Lisa says NO DEAL

Round 3
3 - £5,000
13 - 10p Newbie Charlie
Lisa goes for box 1, as it should contain the 1p
1 - £250,000

The banker says that round had a sting in the tail, and offers £15,003. Lisa asks the audience what they think, they all say to go on... Lisa says NO DEAL

Round 4
Noel asks is Lisa still thinking of the £250,000, she says NO it's the 1p that is worrying her.
17 - 50p
11 - 1p WOW WOW WOW says Noel
We're right on the edge of an all blue round Noel tells us.
22 - £100

Lisa gets her all blue round, and Noel says that round came just at the right moment, he then tells the banker the game is going their way now. The Banker offers £23,001, Noel says it's a great offer and to really think about it. Christine tells her that she has 5 lower amounts on the board than her offer and she can hit all of them in the next round. Noel tells her the board is very strong and lots of players would love that board, although it's also a big offer, and then points out that box 19 has come to the table with some big amounts lately. Lisa says she is ready, but then the banker calls back and says that £23,001 is not easily divided by 3 (The number of children that Lisa has), so he raises the offer to £24,000!!! The mind games begin!! Lisa's husband tells her that she came with a figure in mind and to base her decision on that. Lisa says DEAL

Noel wonders if Lisa's game will continue "Regret week"
Round 5 - Proveout round
2 - £5
21 - £10,000 NOT GOOD ENOUGH shouts Noel
4 - £75,000 NO NO it's not enough says Noel

The banker would have offered £30,000, you've only lost out on £6,000 at the moment says Noel!! Lisa reveals that £30,000 was her target, Noel says if only you had gone on you would have got exactly what you wanted and would have been really happy!!

Round 6 - Proveout round
14 - £100,000 Yes shouts Noel, you cut that a bit fine

Debbie's Deal or No Deal Game Report

Noel welcomes us to the Wonderful Dream Factory - He says we are glowing but with a little disappointment today after Patrick's game, which was perhaps a little too strong and resulted in Patrick dealing early!!

It’s Debbie turn to take the walk of wealth today and she does so with box 4. Debbie is cheered down the walk of wealth by a group of her best friends who are in the audience for support today. Debbie tells Noel they are all part of some sort of band -they are called the harmonells.... She tells Noel she wants to beat the banker and become a Banker Spanker!!

Round 1
Debbie has 5 numbers that she is going to choose first
1 - £35,000
5 - £50 Cheers for the first blue
7 - £100
18 - £10
9 - £750

That's rather interesting says Noel, it has a touch of yesterday about it!! Debbie says she has a few things to say to the banker!! She says she has always had large numbers in her boxes, so he should be very worried. The banker calls and thinks that she is a force to be reckoned with, and Noel asks did you say FARCE!! The Banker then offers £11,011, Debbie says thank you very much Mr Banker, but NO DEAL

Round 2
20 - £20,000
8 - £50,000 Groans for that one...
15 - £5,000

All reds says Noel, but Debbie says it's OK as it will be an all blue round next time.
The banker says he is sweating after doing a little victory dance!! He says he loves boards like this with the top 3 isolated, as it tends to make the player go too far!!!
Noel then totally forgets the offer!! The Banker offers £8,000, Debbie says it's a fair offer for the board, and Noel again points out what the banker said about contestants crashing out on boards like Debbie's... Debbie says NO DEAL

Round 3
Debbie asks for an all blue round and the 1p next....
3 - £250,000 Noel says the banker's prediction could be coming true!!
Blue chants start
17 - 1p From one end of the board to the other...
More chants
14 - £250 Newbie Tanweer

Debbie says that she always thought that when you sat in the crazy chair she imagined that the boxes would just jump out at you, but they don't. Noel uses "Noel Logic" to say that the £100,000 or the £75,000 could well be at the table as they haven't been in play for a while. The Banker offers £10,000, Noel tells Debbie that the banker is testing her nerve now, and she gets shouts to go on from the audience. Debbie says NO DEAL

Round 4
Blue chants start again
10 - 10p
Noel wants 2 more like that... More chants start
16 - £15,000 The chants fizzle out...
Debbie really wants to go to Lisa next, but is afraid as she always has big ones!!! Lisa says she is due for a blue soon... Noel asks is Lisa going to destroy the game now!!!
Blue chants NEARLY start...
11 - £1,000

It's OK says Noel, and he's not quite sure how she has done it, but Debbie has clambered back to a good position. The Banker offers £12,500, Debbie says it's a good offer and £12,500 is a lot of money, but she just wants to carry on... Debbie says NO DEAL

Round 5
It was a very brave decision says Noel, but was it a wise decision
Blue chants start
19 - £10,000 The fall back has gone says Noel
More chants!!
2 - £75,000 PLEASE STOP THE CHANTS!!! They don't work
Noel really builds up the tension now and more chants start
21 - £500

Noel says he thinks Debbie has got away with it, but then asks has she and will the banker try and get her cheap.... The banker respects that Debbie was brave last time, but he wants the box as cheap as possible now, he offers £9,900. Debbie starts to say she thinks that she might just want to go all the way, but the banker calls back and interrupts to speak to her. Noel warns her that the banker will play mind games now about her son. Debbie says he is a really nice man, and then talks about how it's a lot of money but part of her wants to really go for it... Debbie says DEAL

Round 6 - Proveout round
This could get very emotional if it doesn't work out
13 - 50p
6 - £3,000 Groans as the £100,000 stays in play
22 - £5 More groans as Debbie doesn’t hit the £100,000

It’s time for The Banker with £1 and £100,000 remaining, Noel wonders if big money could have come to the table two days in a row. The banker says he saved himself £20,000 by chatting to Debbie on that last offer!! He would have offered £29,900, and Debbie says she would have dealt for that.

Noel really builds up the drama and tension in the studio saying that the banker broke Debbie and made her lose at least £20,000, but has she actually lost a lot more and could she have won a life changing £100,000!

Noel opens box 4 and reveals £100,000. You've blown £100,000 says Noel!! Box 12 contains £1.
Noel asks how Debbie she is feeling and she replies that obviously she is feeling gutted now and in a way wishes that she didn’t speak to the banker, as she really wanted to play on at that stage.

Noel closes out the show saying he hopes that the remaining contestants took notice of the fact that you shouldn’t take notice of the banker as he is there for one thing only, and that is to save himself money.

The banker says it's 2 old war-horses doing battle today, and Doug gets a mention in possibly joining forces with the 2 of them and becoming the antique Chippendales!! The banker overheard while Patrick was having his microphone fitted that he said his perfect breakfast is a blonde at the end of the bed! He then offers £12,500, it’s Sarah's exit fee yesterday.

Blue chants start

It's a very strong board says Noel, although it would have been great to have taken out the 1p - The £250,000 is still at the other end of the board though. The banker tells Patrick that the chances of him having the £250,000 are the same as him having the 1p, and he then offers £30,000. Steven tells Patrick that he can still take out the £35,000 in the next round and still get a larger offer. Patrick asks who would deal in the audience, only a handful stand... The banker calls back!!! He is going to increase the offer!! It’s now £30,001 + a photo of Julian!!! Referring to Julian’s game where he refused an offer of £30,000 and then his game crashed!!! Patrick says if the banker is going to try and play mind games he is out of his depth... Patrick says NO DEAL

I feel good says Patrick and Noel tells him that this is one of the strongest situations for a long time. The banker says that he doesn't believe Patrick will go all the way and offers £50,000. Patrick says that is a very comfortable sum of money, and he goes to Steven who says he would say No Deal. Noel tells him to remember that the £50,000 is real money and that he could still walk away with 1p... Patrick says DEAL

Patrick says he thinks he might live to regret that decision…

Round 6 - Proveout round
18 - £750 Almost the perfect start says Noel
15 - £35,000 Not enough says Noel
22 - 1p Total shock in the studio

It’s time for the Banker with £75,000 and £250,000 remaining!! Noel says it would have been the perfect round if you had only carried on. The banker would have offered £150,000, the whole studio is in shock at that offer. Patrick says if he was 30 years younger he would have played on and not dealt at £50,000.

Noel opens Patrick’s box 19 and reveals £250,000!! There are cries of disbelief when it’s revealed and most of the contestants are holding their heads in their hands.

Box 11 contains the £75,000

Patrick says he is drained after that, and disappointed that he didn’t have the courage to go, but it’s been a fabulous time and game and he can’t complain at walking away with £50,000.
Noel closes out the show saying there is an interesting atmosphere in the studio as although Patrick has won £50,000, he admitted he could have played on and won a lot more if age was on his side.

Sarah goes to Nigel who wonders if after the ups and downs in the game, could it be a perfect ending. Sarah gets encouragement to go with her heart. Sarah says DEAL
