Shivering over here, just managed to find a warm spot so we can start off a very special Bonfire edition of Ronan's (first ever) DOND.


Of course, you'd be thinking how on earth I can play without a contestant? Which is why our good friend ACB will be taking the Chair this evening.


He will get the opportunity to win a huge jackpot of erm, a rather random £66,770.81...


But it's how the good old Fibonacci sequence works:

Hello Mr Banker, yes I bet you are pleased with that opening round.


With his age, it's going to be a night of hell for him. So why not have the price of his cheapest earphones?

BANKER'S OFFER

£719.99

Don't know what store the Banker shops at, but I get high quality earphones for WAY cheaper than that.

NO DEAL, and let's continue with 13, 15 and 17, please.

He says he is his own store therefore he can charge whatever he likes


Round 2...

13 - £4,181

Running out of reds fast...

Banker time...


Headphones not good enough no? How about keeping warm and away from the bangs tonight with the price of his cheapest earmuffs...

BANKER'S OFFER

£469.99

Oh no, sorry, it's discount day...

BANKER'S OFFER

£419.99

Coupon, £419.99, Deal or No Deal?

I can get high quality earmuffs for WAY cheaper than that too. Maybe next offer the Banker can offer the price of his cheapest Car and then I might be tempted.

NO DEAL and boxes 21, 22 and 20 next, please.

His cheapest car is a £200k Bentley, like her, you won't be getting any of that however a lift home in one is his age... I meant £1313.13, but it's very lucky to get a ride in one, apparently...


21 - £2,584 Reds Galore... Oh this isn't bingo but still

22 - £55 That's more like it

One more would be good

He'll behave a bit now and give you his favourite number

BANKER'S OFFER

£666.66

Coupon, £666.66 Deal or No Deal?

With the average being over £3,000 this is still an easy NO DEAL.

18, 16 and 14, please.

Good luck!!!

18 - £8 finally one of the top 6 gone!

16 - £1

14 - £89


Fantastic turnaround!

Ooh hello Banker... Earphones not working now no?


He'll give you the price of his cheapest instruction manual on how to scream the neighbourhood down , which so happens to be his lucky number that he hopes will bring you luck in the next round...

BANKER'S OFFER

£1313.13

Coupon, £1313.13, Deal or No Deal

Best offer of the game so far, but with only an 11% disaster chance and the offer still being less than a third of the average it's definitely worth at least one more go. NO DEAL.

12, 10 and 8, please.

Excellent, now let's have that sensational 2nd all blue round that will totally boost the offer...


12 - £6,765 All or Peanuts at the moment...

10 - £13 Not so lucky for the banker as long as we can find a blue...

8 - £5


Very nice now!

Fantastic....


Now he's going to throw in a mix...


The mean between your favourite number and his favourite number just to make it equal...

BANKER'S OFFER

£4,545.45

(Mean of £1313.13 and £7777.77).

NOW WE'RE TALKING!!!!!

Suddenly the offer is VERY generous for the board at 75% of the average. It's tempting to go on for a five figure offer, though.

Ultimately, I think the right decision is to.....

THAT'LL DO HIM!!!


Now let's prove that was the peak of your game...


6 - £3 would have been a great start...

2 - £610

NOW HAS TO BE THE £28,657!!!

4 - £2


NO!!!! You should have followed the temptation.


Banker time with £2 and £28,657 remaining...

The temptation would have indeed got you your five figures...

BANKER'S OFFER WOULD'VE BEEN

£10,000

Now would you have swapped?

In a way that validates my decision, as it really wasn't worth risking a 60% disaster chance for just over double the previous offer.

I wouldn't have swapped.

Right then, this has been a nasty nasty game, taking out huge figures in the early stages. Actually, by turning away when you were hanging on by fingernails, would you have been able to pull yourself up a lot further than £10,000, to our biggest prize on the first EVER show?
