Marilyn's Deal or No Deal Game Report 02/01/11

This is the first of the hour-long shows!

Noel welcomes us to a New Year on Deal or No Deal, and we're treated to some new music and totally new opening titles! Noel wishes us all a Happy New Year. Noel talks about how the banker's been using Twitter, and he encourages us to communicate with him on there. He also says there are some changes on the way.

Marilyn has box 16. Marilyn is retired, and has her husband in the audience today. Noel says he's been poorly recently and had 2 heart attacks in one year. Marilyn reveals that her family come round for breakfast each morning! She has some ale with her, and also a guardian angel ornament that lights up! We get to see a pic of her family, including all her children and grandchildren. Noel introduces us to some other relatives that Marilyn has in the audience.

Marilyn also has some clotted cream fudge for Noel and the banker, and she also has a can of special ale for each of them. She says it's very strong and sorts the men from the boys! Marilyn says she doesn't have a system.

Round 1
Noel introduces us to the gameboard which has had a snazzy update to the colours.
5 - Dale - 50p
Noel talks to Jim and he says he fell over a step so he missed the last show!

3 - Grace - £5
6 - Julie - £35,000
Dave now, and Noel thanks him for smartening up and ditching the scruffy clothes!
4 - Dave - £250

Banker time
The banker wishes everyone a Happy New Year. He makes fun of one of Marilyn's relatives in the audience because he's very nervous, so he displays a close-up of him on the gameboard. Noel gets floorman Eddie to take half of the fudge to the banker. The banker talks about how Marilyn used to be a quality inspector, and she can inspect him any time.

Banker's offer:
£4,000

Marilyn says
NO DEAL

Round 2
Noel says the banker thinks Marilyn has low ambitions, but Noel says she has lots of ambitions, including taking her husband white-water rafting, and she'd also like to go to Australia with him. Noel suggests rafting to Australia.
1 - Scott - £10
12 - David - £15,000
20 - Matty - £20,000

Banker time
Noel says that round didn't go as well as we'd hoped, but Marilyn says it's not too bad. The banker says he likes the thought of Marilyn's husband going white water-rafting with heart problems. He returns half of the fudge for Noel, but most of it's gone and the only bit remaining has teeth marks in it.

Banker's offer:
£4,001

Marilyn says
NO DEAL

Round 3
The banker phones and says Marilyn's tone of voice has made him re-think things, and he now believes she's here for the big money. Noel says he likes her skirt and thinks it's quite cheeky as it has a slit in it! Irene now, and she talks about a parachute jump she did, and how she had a bloke on her back on the way down.
15 - Irene - £100,000
21 - Haroon - £5,000
Lucie gives Marilyn a bit of pep-talk... Marilyn talks about where she lives and tries to get Noel to pronounce the Welsh place-name! She says she lives next door to a brewery and a *beep* factory!
13 - Jim - £100

Banker time
The banker says he doesn't like Lucie for the pep-talk.

Banker's offer:
£6,000

Marilyn says
NO DEAL

Round 4
Noel talks about how Marilyn once danced with a young man and flashed her bits! She tells the full story of what happened and how her bra strap fell off! Noel asks her why she showed her knickers in the supermarket, so she tells a story of what happened when she bent over the freezer!!
14 - Lucie - 10p
11 - Ian - £50,000
22 - Hannah - £750

Banker time
The banker says he's focussing on the 1p and £1 on the board.

Banker's offer:
£11,500

Marilyn asks her husband what to do and he says it's a good offer. Marilyn worries about what happens if she takes out the 2 big ones. She asks Jen, who says there are only 2 values higher than the offer. Dave says the banker will have to increase the offer a lot, if she takes out the blues.

Marilyn talks about her ambition to go to Australia, as her friend lives out there. The banker rings and says the next offer will shoot up after a good round, but she could also take out the 2 big ones. He speaks to her and she says he's a very nice man. Noel wonders if the banker's got her.

Marilyn says this is so hard, so she asks for a sweep and most of the others say she should deal, but one or two say she should go on.

Marilyn says
DEAL
