We've had nearly 500 shows now, and seen every amount on the board won at least once, as well as many different ones in between! But what, in terms of gameplay, have we not seen yet? (Talking in terms of realistic things, not 1 in 100 year events like the all-power 5 finish etc...) Here's a few I've thought of:

- A no deal on a final pair of £250k/blue or £100k/blue - closest was Laura (£250k/£3k), Swappy Barbara (£100k/£1k) and Lynne, Simone, Thanh (£75k/blue).
- A contestant turning down £30,000+ and winning a blue - Kirsty's £26,062 is the highest, breaking Simone's long-standing record. Khanny turned down £48,000 and would have won a blue had he not swapped at the end!
- 1p/10p final pair (either active play or proveout)
- A contestant swapping away the £250,000 box
- A first or second offer deal
- A three-box round of £250k, £100k and £75k

Any others that people can think of?

A couple of final two box possibilities, apart from that I think you got em all!

Oh yeah...no offer dealt at lower than £20.00, and no offer made in game play over £125,000 (Kirsty (1))

Some have an all-power 5 last pair in active play and get an OPW out of it!

Also someone have the opposite of 75k Kirsty's last 3 - 1p/10p/50p (but I suppose we need to get the 1p/10p last pair first)!

An offer to 8 signficant figures (for instance, Claudine could have been offered £107,031.31)!

Good one! Never thought of that one!

I got another one

With the Boxing Day 2006 matinee coming closest, no-one has actually been offered peanuts yetas a Banker's Offer!

someone tyaking all the bottom or top five in Round 1.

someone finding each amount in order (closest was Paul taking top off board in R1)

We haven't seen an offer consisting of an item instead of money - such as a car. We've had swaps and combined offers, such as trips to Paris and dinners for two, but I don't think there have been offers consisting soley of an item such as that.

Does Jane's offer of pretzels and ducks count as items?

Ah! Got ya there! But I know where you're coming from, things like a kiss, romantic dinner for two, footstool, the best one so far...

Good Luck! (PJ's game)

It was Sarah, actually - but they were all part of monetary offers (with the exception of PJ's good luck offer, I suppose, but that wasn't a material item).

Uhuh - and goodness knows why I said Jane when I did know it was Sarah!

Oh well - yeah, the Good Luck offer is the only exception so far but it means nothing in terms of items!

We've had a swap-no-cash offer at every single point now haven't we? (Triple-Swap Craig for the second and third, Ned at eight-box, VENTRESS at five-box, PJ at two-box - or am I wrong in some of those?)

I can't believe nobody's said this one - an all-blue squashdown! We're well overdue one of those, I make it a 1 in 161.5 chance and by implication I make it a 1 in 19.7 chance of going 480 games without one - three more games and we're over the 5% significance mark!

That's right!

It's a bit of a general thing but we haven't seen any really good end-game swaps. We've had a couple of atrocious ones but the best has just been Valerie's 10p for £10,000.

Also nobody's swapped for a Power 5 at the end if they've no-dealt the last offer. The highest box swapped for at the end is £15k with Bearded Gary and...er....Julia.

I'd like to see a swap at the end as good as Barbara's was bad, for sure!

And with late-game offers plumbing fast towards 'hey, open your box!' levels, the conditions may exist for one soon, but I can only speak in guessing terms, I've not heard any spoilers! And of course the opportunity may not be taken...

Has there ever been a 1p/£250k finish? If there has been, out of interest, what was the offer?

It hasn't happened in active play, but Debbie who played last June had it after dealing previously. The offer given was £60,000.

Someone having the £250k box and dealing for four figures and a third offer deal with the contestant having £250k.

Good point about nobody ever selling the £250k at the third offer!

One that's just about conceivable - the first offer being the highest and every subsequent offer being lower! Closest we got was Giorgio's game where the fifth offer was higher than the fourth and third - if £35k had gone in round 5 instead of £1k he'd have pulled it off!

...

i it's interesting that more than that havenn't got to such a situation. Quite a few players have made over cautious deals and denied themselves that, Steve, Paul A , Bindya, Betty, Belinda etc.

These players could have had an active play power 5 final two:

Liz
Paul A
Phil
Bindya
Betty
James (2)
Dave (2)
Belinda
Sandra (1)
Steve (2)
Lance
Mark P
Lee (1)
Patrick (3)
Kelsie
Sara
Donna (3)
Leanne
Gaz (3)

18/21 dealt too early!
