Yep - you've been voting to say what blue amount you'd be happiest winning if it came down to it. But without letting the pipedream of becoming a jackpot winner get in the way of your actual aspirations should you ever do make it on the show, which of the reds would you most want to win?

For anyone who doesn't know by now, it's £100,000 for me - it's the highest realistic sum of money you can win in my opinion (with the £250,000 being £150,000 apart from the rest of the board!)...plus in the first game of Deal I ever played, my final two were £500 and £100,000 and I swapped for box 2 which had, you guessed it...the £100,000!

It would also be the only red I'd almost always gamble for, regardless of offer or the other remaining cash amount in the game!

Keep the fun going here guys, don't just choose £250,000 and be boring! :P

£50,000 and £100,000 :P
£75,000 and £20,000 come in close, followed by £5,000.

So as it stands:
1) £50,000.
2) £100,000.
3) £75,000.
4) £20,000.
5) £5,000.
6) £250,000.
7) £35,000.
8) £15,000.
9) £10,000.
10) £3,000.
11) £1,000.
:D

I think £35,000 because it is a very nice amount of money to win but not too much! Too be quite honest it would be the £250,000 because it is the most you can win!!!

As I previously stated before this poll appeared :suspect: it'd be the £250,000

If I were to pick my favourite offer from the Banker it'd either be £20,000 or £26,000 (waits for the poll :lol: )

£5,000 becuase there have been so many feel-good box wins from games that have looked like being trainwrecks!!

And £20,000 becuase loads of my favourite players have won it!

£100,000 and £250,000 are my favorites without question. I'd love to be a contestant someday and have Noel rip the seal off of my box 7 at the end of my game and reveal £250,000, making me a quarter-millionaire ;) .

Well only the £250,000 and £100,000 interest me the most although i'd take 75 or 50k as a consolation!

I'd be foolish not to say the quarter million, however as there are two options, my second choice would probably be £35k. It's a rather nice sum of money I'm sure you would agree and that would be a fairly realistic target for me if I were on the show.

It's too obvious to vote £250k so I'll go for two others;

1. £35k - I can still remember Jennifer's game and Noel's 'Power 4' reference then and me suggesting (or was that in Nick's game?) that it should be five... now of course everyone refers to a Power 5! Plus it's just such a cool amount, I remember seeing the article in the Mirror and £35k was visible on the gameboard shot they showed and I was like 'what?'. But it of course proved vital in game 1 and I've liked it ever since!
2. £3k. Again it's a nice kooky amount, plenty of other game shows would've used £2,500. And as we saw with Laura it can be seen as just influential enough compared to a blue or the £1k. In many ways, it's the real 'lowest red'!
