A lively Noel welcomes everyone to the dream factory - he does a quick recap of last week and sums it up with a cry of ARRRRRGGGGHGHGHGH!!!!!!!! He draws a line under the last week and hopes for a new fresh start today.
It’s Geoff’s turn to take the walk of wealth today, and he does so with has box 12, and matches quite well with Noel's blue shirt, just hope it's not a blue in his box! Geoff has his wife in the audience for support, he believes he has a positive outlook on everything, and hopes that will help him through his show. Noel asks for a lot of positivity from the pilgrims, who respond with cheers...

It's an interesting grouping says Noel. The Banker points out that last week was one of his most successful ever, and he is really confident at the moment, Noel says he doesn't think he could make Geoff any more nervous than he is!! The Banker reckons that he has met Geoff before, and says he looks like Charles Bronson! He then offers £7,000, it's not bad says Noel... Geoff says
NO DEAL
Round 2

That's better says Geoff, but he then turns to Nathan for his next box!! Noel stops him and tells everyone to behave or he will set his new best mate Philip on them, Noel even tells the banker to behave or his mate Philip will sort him out!! The banker says that Philip is a winner already and it's only his first show. There are lots of Charles Bronson film puns!!! The Banker offers £7,000, and Geoff straight away goes to Nathan again!! Noel pulls him up again and asks the question, Geoff says
NO DEAL
