2012-02-13T19:36:00.000Z

Alex has box 12. Alex is from the Midlands and is a business manager for health and safety! Noel says he's tempted to hit Alex with safety cones and tie him up in safety tape. Alex's mum and her partner is in the audience today, and we get to see a photo of his grandparents, who meant a lot to him.

Round 1

80s Love Mix twist:
The player gives the love necklace to someone on the wings. When that person's box is chosen in live play, they guess the contents of their box, and if they're right, they win a holiday. The player also gets an immediate offer from the banker.

Alex chooses to give the love necklace to Alma. Alex is keeping 7, 21, 8 and 10 to the end.

4 - Gabbie - £10,000

The banker says Alex isn't appropriate for Love Week, as he's clearly scared of commitment! He says Alex has opened the 1p on repeated occasions.

£16,500

Alex says that's a nice amount of money. He asks his mum for advice, who says he knows what he wants to do.

Alex says
NO DEAL

Round 3
19 - Jim - £250,000

The banker says this is a tricky offer to make.

Banker's offer:
£20,000

Alex says that money would allow them to change house. Noel reminds Alex that he'll get an immediate offer when he goes with Alma and the necklace. Zoe asks Alex how he'd feel if he went on and didn't use the necklace, and ruined the board. Noel says the necklace is a bit of insurance if things do go wrong, and Zoe argues with Noel! The banker rings and says Zoe is wonderful and he loves her.

Alex says
NO DEAL

Round 5
18 - Damon - 1p
Alex goes for Alma and she guesses she has £35,000 in her box.

Alma doesn't win the holiday. Alex now gets an immediate offer.

Banker time

Banker's offer:
£21,000

Alex says he doesn't want to be greedy, but also thinks he's only here once. Damon says Alex only has to avoid the £100k for the offer to go up. Alex asks Noel what he thinks, and he says he wants the best result for him. The banker rings and says actually the offer will go down if Alex hits the £50k or the £100k, and it'll probably be a stick if he hits the £35k. Alex's mum says she'd probably deal.

Alex says
DEAL

Cynthia has box 9 today. Cynthia is from Bracknell, but originally from Manilla. We get to see a photo of Cynthia's mum, who watches the show everyday and they often shout at the TV when the show is on. Noel says that there is a danger of wiggling her bottom throughout the show.

£18,000

Cynthia says she could do so much with that money for her family, but the tiger inside her is saying to go on.

That is the first real damage for a while says Noel.

Banker time
That is such a shame says Noel, as that was building up to be a great 8-box.

Box 20 with Kath contains the 10p

21 - £20,000 Laura
12 - £75,000 Brian

Banker's offer:

That is really good, as my board isn't great says Candice, and she would have to hit a lot of blues to get a better offer. Candice's friend thinks the Banker is being very mean, as she wants Candice to win more money, Noel asks how much she thinks Candice should be offered, and she thinks around £12,000.

3 - £10 Jim
Noel says it doesn't happen often, but he is starting to feel sorry for the Banker.

£14,270

Greg says he has a really good feeling about his box, and has had the £250,000 about 4 times while on the wings. Greg talks about wanting a bigger house. Greg talks about Rich's game yesterday where he reached a point where he felt he had the £250,000 in his box, and then couldn't look at Rich.

Greg says
NO DEAL

Round 4
18 - £500 Alma
6 - £15,000 Imani

Banker's offer:
£22,470

Noel says the Banker said he can't believe he is having to offer this amount on such a precarious board. Greg talks about how amazing the numbers 7,4, and 2 are cropping up for him lately. Greg's wife says that Greg said he would deal anything over £20,000, then wonders if she should have said that. The Banker calls and says that Gregg shouldn't go back on his word. Greg says he thinks there is still another round in his game, and he just feels so good about his box. The Banker calls again and says this is tricky for Greg as he has seen a lot of games where the gamble has paid off, but he wouldn't gamble £20,000 on that board and the luck has got to change at some point.

Rich's Deal or No Deal Game Report 06/02/12

2012-02-06T18:11:00.001Z

Rich has box 4. Rich is head keeper at a safari park. Rich has his best mate in the audience for support today. Noel is suprised that Rich doesn't have a picture of his daughter with him today who is apparently his life, but instead has a picture of himself at work!

Round 1
Rich has a system so he doesn't get distracted later in the game, he also has a strategy to hopefully get his offers up later.
18 - £250 Brian
3 - £750 Candice
20 - £50 Casey
16 - £20,000 Gabbie
21 - 10p Mathew

Banker time
That is a great opening round says Noel. The Banker says he has been looking to Rich's game, and normally playing a mathematician is quite easy as you just offer above the odds and they'll deal, but he thinks the only way to get Rich is to get him early.

Banker's offer:
£20,000

Rich says that there has always been a cheeky part of him that thought if he had a high enough opening offer he would deal just to be the first to do it, but he never imagined he would get this sort of opening offer.

Rich says
NO DEAL

Round 2
1 - £75,000 Mike
19 - 1p Nick
2 - £1 Laura

Banker time
Oh my word says Noel.

Banker's offer:
£25,000

Rich says he loves his job, but it doesn't pay very well, and he has always been able to carry on with his job as he has never really felt the need to make big investments in things, but he would now like to look to the future for his daughter. Rich's friend says it is a fantastic offer, but he still has an amazing board. Rich says that he distracted himself there a bit with talk about his daughter.

Rich says
NO DEAL

Round 3
Rich says that he really loves his daughter and she will learn through time that money doesn't buy you love, and you make your own luck
22 - £35,000 Newbie Kath
10 - £5,000 Cynthia
8 - £10,000 Jim

Banker time
The Banker says that he knew he would be in more trouble the longer Rich was still in the game.

Banker's offer:
£30,000

Rich says that is just huge, and is a huge offer for that board. Noel talks about people who have gone at the 3rd offer, and it is a fact they went too soon. The Banker calls and tells Noel that those who went early didn't have the sort of offer that Rich is now looking at. He thinks Rich would be saying that if he played on he would likely take out 2 reds and a blue, so he has to think which 2 reds he would take out.

Rich says
NO DEAL

Round 4
12 - £3,000 Jess
7 - £100 Alex
14 - £10 Imani

Banker time
Rich will be so happy to be so wrong about 2 reds and a blue now says Noel. The Banker says that he doesn't think he can buy Rich, but he is going to give it a good go.

Banker's offer:
£45,000

Rich says that his MOT is due next month and it has been a big worry for him, and £500 would ease that, so £45,000 doesn't register at the moment.

Rich says

The Banker calls and Rich asks if he can answer the phone, and Noel allows him, he tells the Banker that he gets a bad rap from everyone but he does get everyone's respect. Rich hangs up but then can't remember the offer, so Noel gets the phone for him.

Banker's offer:
£160,000

What a game says Noel. Rich explains his strategy, and says he hasn't got a very mathematical mind, but he's worked out that over the shows time only 4 people have won the jackpot because they haven't dealt, and at the start of the game everyone has a 1 in 22 chance of winning it, and now he has even better odds than that, as it is now 1 in 2.

Rich says
NO DEAL

Noel tells Rich that he is now allowed the chance to swap his box.

Rich says
NO SWAP

Noel opens Rich's box 4 and reveals £50,000

It wasn't mean't to be says Noel, and Rich says he thinks he made a little mistake there, but the £50,000 will help with that.

Box 6 with Gregg contains the £250,000

Rich says that will be a deposit on a house now, and a future for his little girl.

The Banker tells Helen not to pick the final box and deal now for...

Banker's offer:
£22,000

Helen says she wasn't expecting that, she thought about £12,000. Helen turns to her husband and says that he wants her to take it doesn't he, but if he convinces her to take it and she has the £75,000 in her box she will never forgive him! Helen talks to Stephen and he tells Her that if she plays on she is unlikely to get that offer again, and Helen agrees with him. The Banker calls and says that is why he made the offer £22,000. Helen asks Rich what he would do if he was playing, and he thinks he would be tempted to play on. Helen says if the offer was around £18,000 she would be playing on. Helen says that she really wants to play on, but she can't believe he has offered her this much. The Banker calls again and says that if Helen takes the £22,000 and reveals the £75,000 in her box, she will be a loser, but have £22,000.

Round 1
Robbie has some numbers that he will keep to the end, and says that they are gambling numbers that he used to use. Irene first and Noel says he knows something about her, and she was once stopped by the police at New Years, but it was for driving too slowly, and she was also dressed as the Queen

Robbie says that is amazing, and he has never saved that amount ever. He goes to his partner, who also thinks it is amazing money. Robbie goes to Helen who says it could go either way, but if she was sat there she just couldn't deal at this point. The Banker calls back and says that the board is as weak as it is strong, and thinks that Robbie should take the money. Noel asks Robbie where he visited in the states, and was it Philadelphia

Robbie goes to Rich, who says he would struggle to deal now. The Banker asks to speak to Robbie's partner, and he tells her that she seems to be the brains between her and Robbie. She tells Robbie that he should seriously consider dealing here. Noel asks Robbie's partner how much the Banker has offered her to get Robbie to deal, as she is really trying to get him to deal now. Robbie tells Noel that he is ready for the question, but just as Noel asks it, the Banker calls back and asks to speak to Robbie's partner again, and she tells Robbie to DEAL! Robbie asks her if the Banker has told her something, and she says that he will find out if he deals and he should trust her now. Everyone on the wings starts to tell Robbie he should perhaps DEAL as something is going on.

Banker's offer:
£8,000

Marios tells Robbie it is just a pure gamble now. Robbie's partner asks what he wants to do, and he says he wants to play on, but it could all go so wrong. The Banker calls back and says that if Robbie plays on he will let him open just one box, due to the games he played just now.

Giuliana talks about her late mum, and she has a decoration from her wedding cake with her. She shows a photo of her daughters and she has one in the audience today, along with her husband.

Round 1
9 - Imani - £75,000
Gabbie says she has the fly on her box, and Noel says that's not fair as it's Wendy's fly! Noel then whacks the box and kills the fly! They show a close-up of the box and the dead fly, and the banker rings and says he's really distressed about it.

21 - Gill - £1,000
8 - Candice - £1
Noel comments on how much effort Giuliana is putting into choosing each box.

Banker time
The banker says Noel's a monster for killing the fly. He says he's made something for the fly, and a tiny coffin is brought out and Noel puts the fly in the coffin. Noel says he wants to know what to do now, as he doesn't want to be accused of fly-tipping.

£7,000

Giuliana says
NO DEAL

Rich says it's a 37% chance of hitting the £250k if she goes on, and he says Giuliana should deal if that amount is her dream.

2012-01-27T22:36:00.001Z

Leo has box 20 today. Leo is from Wales, and is a customer service rep, and is also involved in break dancing, which is something he would love to be involved with on a full-time basis. Leo and Noel talk about how dance has become so popular over the past few years. Leo has some beads which have been blessed by a priest. We see a picture of Leo dancing, and he has his partner in the audience for support today. Noel asks her how they met, and she says that she sent him a picture on his phone, although she didn't like the first one he sent, so he sent another with his top off!

Round 1
Noel nearly forgets to do the housekeeping, but the Banker picks up on it and puts it to the vote if Noel should do the rest of the show from the car park or the studio, and he narrowly avoids the car park

Greg next and Leo thinks he looks like Gary Lineker

You took a bit of a bashing there says Noel. The Banker has a pop at Noel about forgetting his housekeeping again, and says at least he remembered to answer the phone

Banker's offer:
£800

Leo says that's not a bad offer as it is about a months wage for him.

Leo says
NO DEAL

Noel says it has all been kicking off as one of the pilgrims was complaining that she only had one cheek on her chair as they are really packing them in the Dream Factory now. She tells Noel that she may complain to Channel 4, so Noel gets a chair from the wings for her. The Banker then calls and asks if she would like a cup of tea as well.

The Banker then asks Leo if he would like some music to show us his dance moves. Leo agrees and we get a demonstration of Leo performing his dance moves.

22 - 50p Robbie
8 - £10,000 Carland

Leo says
NO DEAL

Round 3
15 - £50 Brian (opened by Wendy)

The banker rings and says he's got a feeling the next round will be disastrous.

Bekki says
NO DEAL

Round 5
19 - Stephen - £20,000
7 - Leo - £1,000
3 - Giuliana - £75,000

Banker's offer:
£6,000

Bekki's husband says that's serious money and a brilliant offer, but he has total faith in Bekki. The others tell her it'd be a brave decision for her to go on, and she should think about it.

Jodi's Deal or No Deal Game Report 19/01/12

2012-01-19T19:58:00.002Z

Jodi has box 21 today. Jodi is a student studying nursing. Jodi has her mum in the audience for support today. She has a lucky stone with her that she says makes her hand tingle every time she holds it, so Noel goes to the pilgrims to test out if it does for other people, and it does for some. She has a few other stones that have various meanings to help her today. Noel then starts shaking the pound table saying how powerful the stones are. We get to see a family photo.

Round 1
Jodi says she feels like dancing, so Noel says she should start dancing then.
20 - £15,000 Irene
Rich next and Noel says that he works with animals and smells of seals! Rich says that he kisses them as they are the only ones who will kiss him, and Noel feels sorry for him so runs over and kisses him

5 - £20,000 Brian
Brian nearly throws his box across the wings! Jodi says she doesn't want to pick Snowy as he said if he has the 1p he will lick her face
12 - £75,000 Robbie

Banker time
The Banker says there has been an unbelievable amount of money this week. He asks Brian what he was thinking, and that was possibly the worst box opening of all time. He thinks about throwing Brian out of the studio, but Noel thinks that is mean as Brian does so much for charity, but the Banker says he hates anyone who does things for charity. The Banker goes to the video ref for a verdict on the box opening, and we get to see Brian opening his box again. The video ref decides Brian can stay

Banker's offer:
£6,000

Jodi says
NO DEAL

Round 2

Noel says that is great that he has gone up with that offer. Jodi goes to her mum for some advice.

Banker time
Well, you survived says Noel. The Banker says it is a fascinating configuration, and this will be a tough decision now for Jodi.

Banker's offer:
£13,000

Jodi's mum says that is a fantastic sum of money. Jodi says that she has a little friend who is her mum's friend's son, and he is 9, and he always says that as long as the £250,000 is in play then to keep playing. The Banker says he respects the positivity of the 9yo boy, but kids eat mud. Jodi gets some advice some the wings.

Belinda's Deal or No Deal Game Report 17/01/12

2012-01-17T19:42:00.001Z

Belinda has box 16. Noel says Belinda is a professional drifter, and she talks about how drifting is different from standard motor-racing, because you deliberately put the car out of control. Belinda has a red box with her that her daughters made, and it has the number 3 on it, which means a lot to them all. Belinda has her sister in the audience today.

Banker time

Banker's offer:
£14,500

Noel says the banker is taking Belinda very seriously, and her sister says that's one of the highest 3rd offers of late. The others offer advice and say there's more in the game. The banker rings and says the wings would talk up the board whatever the case, but it's Belinda's money. Belinda says the gap in the reds is worrying her, and she's frightened of taking out the top 3 in the next round. Rich says she's more likely to hit blues in the next round.

22 - Irene - £750

£75,000

Noel says this is the 2nd day in a row where we're faced with an astonishing decision. Belinda says you stare at the £250,000 while it's still there, but she can only see the £1 at the moment. Belinda's sister offers her some cautious advice, and Belinda says she's a risk-taker. Bekki reminds Belinda that she could end up being left with £1 and £20,000.

Belinda says
DEAL

Paul has Box 4. Paul Pocock is an accounts student from Washington, Tyne & Wear. He tells of how he went down with meningitis in his youth and was told he'd have to have his legs amputated; he ended up having both his legs amputated below the knee, along with a bit of his fingers. Noel says he will have inspired many with his story.

He has a picture of his son and step-daughter, and would like to do something for them; he has his partner in the audience. He also has a replica box with him, which he'd like Noel to open later.

£30,000

Paul talks about what he could do with the money, and gets emotional.

Paul says:
NO DEAL

Noel says Paul is totally focussed.
Box 2 with Giuliana - 50p
The perfect start, says Noel. The wingers start banging the table!
Box 8 with Greg - £750
Just one more, says Noel.
Box 3 with Robbie - £5,000

Banker time...
Noel asks if the Banker is still there! The Banker says, when Paul was in hospital, he clinically died three times.

Banker's offer:
£70,000

Paul says he still has the top three. His partner and some of the wingers tell him to stop. His partner says he'll regret the drop, and tells him not to chase the boxes. Paul says, if he dealt, and had the £250,000, he'd have more regrets than if he left with a blue.

Paul says:
DEAL

Round 6 - proveout round
Noel says Paul wanted to play on.
Box 11 with David - £10,000
