Carmine's Deal or No Deal Game Report 11/01/10

Noel says the banker is cruising at the moment as he hasn't been put under pressure lately, as the boxes haven't been going well for the players.

Carmine has box 10. Carmine is Italian but now lives in Derbyshire. He talks about how he ended up coming over here from Italy in the 1960s. Noel says Carmine met his wife by charming her with his accent, and he's going to do the same with the banker today! Carmine has some camomile tea for Noel because Noel kept calling him "camomile". He also has a miniature van with him from his collection of vans. We get to see a pic of his family, and a pic of his wife and 2 daughters.

Round 1
Carmine has no system.
3 - Mark - £50
5 - Courtney - £50,000
Big groans for that...
9 - Debbie - £75,000
Glenda now, and Noel blows in her hair and makes a wish.
11 - Glenda - £250
13 - Dawn - £5,000

Banker time
The banker says if this had been a Carry On film, Glenda's hair would've blown off and landed on Al's bald head, and Mo would've got jealous.

Banker's offer:
£4,000

Carmine says
NO DEAL

Round 2
Noel wonders how he can make Carmine relax! Carmine tells him not to worry...
19 - Matt - £1,000
6 - Jean - £3,000
15 - Bel - 1p

Banker time
The banker thought Carmine's 1p kiss to Bel was steamy. Carmine says he's glad it wasn't a man as he doesn't want to kiss a man!

Banker's offer:
£9,500

Carmine says he'd like to buy a Ferrari with the money, but would also like to treat his wife and kids.

Carmine says
NO DEAL

Round 3
17 - Ben - £5
14 - Tracey - £10,000
20 - Al - £35,000
OH NO! says Noel...

Banker time
Noel says this isn't good as Carmine's down to 4 reds. The banker concedes that he could hit blues now and still has the top 2...

Banker's offer:
£9,500

Noel says that's a very very good result.

Carmine says
NO DEAL

Round 4
18 - Nat - 10p
22 - Harold - £1
Noel says Carmine is on track to get good balance at 8-box.
4 - Tom - £20,000

Banker time
The banker says everyone smiles when they look at Carmine, and he doesn't want him to go away with nothing, and he should deal now.

Banker's offer:
£15,000

Carmine says he can't believe it! He says it's not enough to buy a sports car though. Harold says it's risky and Courtney says his offer will be nice even if he hits one of the big ones. Carmine says he's worried about the number of blues left. Mark says Carmine needs to be brave to get the big money but £15,000 is a good offer. Noel asks the players and the audience what they'd do, and most would no deal. The others offer some more advice as Carmine agonises over the decision. Jean says even if he got the Ferrari, there'd still be the expense of running it!!

Carmine says
DEAL

Round 5 (proveout)
Noel says each box must contain a red now.
21 - David - £500
2 - newbie Laura - £250,000
Noel says it's great that the curse of the newbie returned there!
16 - Shell - £10

Banker time
The banker says it's still very finely balanced.

Banker's offer would've been:
£8,500

Round 6 (proveout)
The banker phones and says he'd have phoned at this point to say the offer would be a trip to Italy to the Ferrari factory AND £30,000 of spending money if he finds 3 blues now.
1 - Beth - £100,000
Noel says we could have a draw, and we haven't had one for a long time.
12 - Mo - 50p
7 - Adam - £750

Banker time with £100 and £15,000 remaining

Banker's offer would've been:
£6,000

Carmine has £15,000 in his box 10

Noel says that's officially a draw.

Box 8 with Chris contains the £100

Carmine says he's very happy with his £15,000 and didn't expect to win that much
