Franca's Deal or No Deal Game Report 04/03/10

Franca has box 3.

Franca is from Stroud and works at a building society, and she goes into some detail about what she does. We get to see an old b&w pic of Franca's mum and her sister when they were in Italy. Franca also shows a photo of some Italian workers who came over to Gloucestershire to help out during the 2007 floods, and Franca acted as a translator, as they didn't speak English and arrived with a letter from Gordon Brown! Franca talks about how she helped with the floods.

She has a necklace with her which belongs to a spiritual friend of hers.

The banker says 13 is lucky in Italy. Franca and her boyfriend agree that's a very good offer, and he says he's already got his car keys out, as he feels the game could be destroyed in 2 boxes. Franca talks to Olivia's fiancee in the audience and he says that offer should be enough for Franca. The banker phones and says he's in tears as he wanted Olivia for himself!

Franca then speaks to Barbara's husband in the audience, and Noel says it's great to see a flavour of the experience contestants get when they meet lots of new people. Franca's boyfriend asks if she'd be upset at winning a blue, and she says she wouldn't, and he says that's her answer then.

He says he's considering not making an offer, but the look on Franca's boyfriend's face is stopping him doing that. Noel says this is a serious moment now, and he gives quite a build-up to giving this offer...
