Noel wonders what sort of person will play the game today, he says that the east wing are particularly brave, and then manufactures some wild stories to describe their bravery!!
It’s Jo’s turn to take the walk of wealth today, and she does so with box 11. Jo is a travel agent from Barnsley. She has her husband in the audience for support today, and tells Noel her dream is to be a size 14 and is forever dieting. She has a farting bear for luck!! We get to see a pic of her dog, which is a cross between a Whippet and a Collie, so Noel asks is it called Wally?! The dog actually picked out Jo's numbers for her today...

The banker feels a real bond with the bear!! He says he has had a lot of problems with gas as well!! He was worried that Jo would bring a big number to the table today, as she has had high boxes while on the wings. He then offers £15… Jo says
