We get a red-hot greeting from Noel today. He describes the last 2 games as sensational, and points out that both Sam and Rodney both brought the £750 box to the table, but had VERY different outcomes...
It’s Dave’s turn to take the walk of wealth today, and he does so with box 5. Dave is a hypnotherapist. He shows us a picture, and it's a scan of his baby... Dave has a few lucky numbers, which he will use throughout the game...
Round 1
10 - £750 Big cheers
4 - £250
9 - £1 Newbie Jenny
1 - £100 The whole studio are loving this...
No pressure says Noel but we haven't had an all blue round for ages...
20 - £50,000 Groans for that one
It's still a very strong board says Noel. The banker says he has put tape over his screen where Dave's eyes are, so he can't hypnotise him!!! He then offers £8,008… That's a good offer says Dave... Dave says
NO DEAL
Round 2
8 - 50p Big cheers
14 - £35,000 Groans for that one...

NO DEAL
Round 3
15 - £15,000
21 - £500 Big shouts from Dave and a WOW from Noel
7 - £5,000 That's OK says Noel
It looks pretty good to me says Noel, and he continues by saying Dave is getting revved up now, after the calm image he had at the start of the game... The Banker offers £20,000… That’s a clever offer says Noel, and he asks how confident Dave is... Dave says
NO DEAL
Noel wonders if this will be a pivotal round
Round 4
17 - £250,000 WOW, we are back to form says Noel
16 - £10,000
6 - £3,000
The banker says he has nudged into the lead now... He says a sensible man will consider this offer, and offers £12,500… Noel asks Joanne what she thinks, and she replies that it's not enough... He then asks Mike if he would play on, and Mike replies he doesn't know until he sits in the chair!! Dave says
NO DEAL
Round 5
13 - £20,000 The fallback has gone says Noel
22 - £5 Shouts of C'mon from Dave
11 - 10p Big shouts and cheers
Dave loved that last box and high 5's all the contestants... It's 2-1 now says Dave...
Noel says we all very confident now... The banker says that Dave is keener on winning the game, rather than winning a high amount of money, and he offers £18,500… That is a very clever offer says Noel.... Eric tells Dave that if he is left with one of the high numbers at the end of the next round, he will have a higher offer... The banker calls back and says that Eric shouldn't count on that!!! Dave says don't bring my game into a conflict between Eric and the banker.... Noel goes to Adam who says DEAL straight away... Noel tells him to shut up!! Adam says DEAL again... Noel tells him the new offer is £20,001.... Adam says NO DEAL!! Dave gets more advice to think of his new unborn baby and to DEAL… Dave says
NO DEAL
Round 6
We need to find that 1p now says Noel

That was great says Noel
18 - £75,000 Groans for that one
It's all on this box now says Noel
Dave is stuck between 3 and 12 as they both mean something to him
3 - £50 BIG CHEERS
It’s time for The Banker with £1,000 and £100,000 remaining, and he congratulates Dave and says that was very brave... He then offers £33,333…
Noel asks how important is it to Dave to beat the banker, and Dave replies very important. Noel says that sometimes second place is good as well... Dave says
DEAL
Noel opens Dave’s box 5 and reveals £100,000
Box 12 contains the £1,000
Dave says he is over the moon with that...
