Craig's game today.

Noel says there was a little moment in Loreen's game when her father got rather emotional, and the pilgrim sitting next to him gave him a pat on the shoulder.

Hopefully Craig has the guts and board reading skills to win the mega-money.

No more 2008 / May 2013 offers please Banker!

Craig has Box 22.

Craig Boustead, from Newcastle, a bricklayer. He has had a stammer since an early age, which he talks about. He has a photo of him with his wife and daughters; his wife is in the audience. He also has an award for bravery, which he and a friend were given for rescuing someone on a building site after an accident.

Here we go...

I wonder if Dee will come as Cee Cee in his game.

And no more players who bring those offers upon themselves with their cautious advice and then accept them.

Round 1

Box 9 with Brian - £75,000

That's a bit of structure we didn't want to lose, says Noel.

Box 10 with Ryan - £5

Box 11 with Iris - £250,000

On to Dee, who is wearing a Noel-esque shirt! Some banter around that ensues!

Box 17 with Dee - £10

On to Suwanna, who tells of how she answered the phone to Craig, and thought he was her husband! Noel tells her off for bumping into him earlier in the week!

Box 5 with Suwanna - £50

Banker time...

The Banker wonders what's going on, and says there must be something in the water at the hotel! He compliments Craig on managing to control his stammer.

Oh my gosh, Banker actually making good offers for once!
Not sure why £6,750 though? I'd have rounded it to £7k.

Craig says:

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break...

Wow, an opening offer above the Fair Deal. It looks Craig knew how a build up a good name with the banker while he was in the wings.

We're back...

Round 2

Box 12 with Wayne - 10p

Noel likes bricklaying, and some banter about it ensues! He reveals that Craig is here because he needs money.

Box 19 with Emma - £500

Box 15 with Hayley - 1p

(How many times has Hayley had the 1p now?)

Banker time...

Could this be five figures?

Well that was a good consolation round.

Perfect round

Offer should be around £15,000

Hayley has had the 1p three times now.

The Banker says everyone loves Craig, and it makes him want to throw up!

Banker's offer:

£10,000

Why? The mean is £17,150.11

Don't push it, you would not get £15K at the second offer without the £250K.
