2 - Debbie - £15,000
10 - James - £10

Banker time
The banker says Noel is Chris's butler, and he says he's jealous of Chris, as he has it in him to be a loose cannon.

Banker's offer:
£11,000

Chris says he wasn't expecting that, and Noel says the banker's trying to tap into "sensible Chris" rather than "loose-cannon Chris". Chris's dad says that's a lot of money, and he could pay him some rent if he dealt.

Chris says
NO DEAL

Round 3
20 - Rich - 50p

Chris puts on his Lee Westwood signed golf glove for luck!

12 - Nyomi - £50
17 - Gurpal - £20,000

Banker time
Chris says he doesn't know what to think of the board now. The banker says Chris must know the stakes if he carries on, and he quotes the almost 40% chance of taking out the £250k.

Banker's offer:
£7,000

Chris says this is so hard, and he doesn't normally get emotional, but he felt himself welling up earlier, as this game could set him up for life. Chris says he thinks that's a decent offer, and he reckons his family would tell him to deal. His dad says it's a fantastic offer, and the odds are against him. His brother says he'll never have a chance to win £250k again and it may be in his box.

Chris asks for the question and the banker phones. The banker says he understands Chris would be devastated if he dealt and found £250k in his box, so he's changed the offer.

NEW OFFER...
Banker's offer:
£7,000.01

Chris says the banker comes out with some classic things, and he has nothing but love for him! The banker rings back and says there's another new offer now...

£8,000

Chris says
NO DEAL

Noel says it's significant that Chris found the 1p as he never had the 1p while he was on the wings.
9 - Gary - £5
Noel says we're nearly there...
4 - Becky - £10,000

Banker time
Noel says that ws an astonishing round. The banker says he respects courage and even frightens him.

Banker's offer:
£12,000

Chris says the £250k is still there, and his dad says he knows Chris wanted to go all the way if the £250k's on the board, but he says there's no other backup, and he thinks he should take the £12k. Paul says that's real money and is a year's wage, and the amounts on the board are just values.

The banker rings back and picks up on a comment Chris's dad said about him being happy with £15k, but he's not going to up the offer as he thinks £12k is more than enough.

Chris says
NO DEAL

Round 6
Noel says it feels like that was an extraordinary gamble, and he reminds us that no man has won the £250,000 yet.
1 - Charlotte - £1,000
5 - Lauren - £250
The banker rings and says the next offer will be in the region of 50p or £50,000, and he says he can't remember the last time the potential swing in offer was that big.

Banker's offer:
£53,000

Chris says he wants to win the £250k! Chris's mum says the offer is real money, and she tells him to imagine the money in his pocket. Paul says Chris's luck has to end sometime, and others mutter that he should take it. Noel says he hasn't got a clue what Chris is going to say now.

Chris says
DEAL

Noel says this is one of the biggest spankings ever if this is £1.

Chris has £250,000 in his box 21.

Box 22 with Berni contains the £1

Noel has brought out a gold envelope from under the table and there's a holiday in the envelope. If Andrew says NO DEAL, he'll win the holiday if he guesses a value and then finds it.

The Banker is willing to let Andrew's girlfriend open the envelope to find out where the holiday is. Louise says the holiday is somewhere really nice and it'd be a great holiday.

The Banker calls and is going to make one final offer. If Andrew declines £10,000 and nominates a box value, and he hits it he'll get the holiday. However his girlfriend will also be able to choose a box giving Andrew 2 chances to win the holiday.
