What deal or no deal? Or how am I pulling off this IT miracle?

NO Deal

4,10,22

Cue mad applause - what's this. An elderly gent has just invaded the studio to cuddle our contestant. After a short delay, Max Gold is finally removed from the place.

Your next 3 boxes please.

Sorry, went a bit quick ! Exciting - always good to meet MBG

Ah - you've beaten me to it.

Box 4 - Disaster! £50,000........ the mood is now sombre.

Box 10 - Titanic Disaster! £35,000 out.

People in the audience are in tears. They've not seen anyone this unlucky before.....

Box 22......... a Reprieve. £1!!!.

Bankers bid and update to follow........

Here's out state of play:

1p £1000
10p £3000
50p
£10,000

£10

£100
£250 £75,000

£250,000

Box numbers left - 1, 5, 7, 9, 11, 12, 16, 18, 20, 21. Spike is holding Box No 3.

Another nightmare round for our tartan contestant. But hope springs eternal - both £75,000 and £250,000 remain in play but the odds are surely against him....

Bankers offer............... £24,000

So Stillspike. Deal or no Deal?

I've had a bad round, 'tis true, but the banker's offer has increased. I think his collar is getting a bit tight.

I've had a lovely time, so I think it's time to let someone else have a go.

DEAL !

Not as simple as walking away. You need to beat the banker now.

The game goes into reverse and you need to choose boxes and hope they're all red leaving you with a prize that's better than the banker would've offered you or is in your box.

Next 3 picks please.

Oh I see. OK.

9,11,12

He now needs reds.....

Box 9 - A red! £3,000

Box 11 - Ooh - a blue £250

Can he hit another red...

Box 12 - He can! But it's not what he was looking for. £1000.

More reds than blues but maybe he needed bigger numbers? Bankers offer to follow.....

Don't I just get £24K then?

Here's out state of play:

1p
10p
50p
£10,000

£10

£100
£75,000

£250,000

Box numbers left - 1, 5, 7, 16, 18, 20, 21. Spike is holding Box No 3.

He hit two reds but the big numbers are left in play. Did he deal too early?

Bankers offer............... £21,750

So far he's beaten the banker but he needs to clear those big red numbers......

Next 3 picks please.

When do I get to phone a friend?

You do but you have to go to the end to find out what was in your box and whether you got a good deal or bailed out too early.

I was going to do millionaire but cheating would be unavoidable.

Think of the remaining Nos as Orient squad Nos .
Your holding Joe Widdowson , for a safe pair of hands No1 Dean Brill or never let you down No7 Jobi McAnuff. They need to removed as one is the 250,000 for sure

I'm up £24,000 on the day, so I'm already running round the studio high fiveing !

The tension here is ramping up - the crowd is willing him on to find those blues:

Box 1 - not good - 10p

Box 20 - [Andy Townsend] - Better - £10,000 - a decent big red off the board.

He needs the £75,000 or £250,000 with this pick.

Box 21................ calamity! 50p!!!

The mood here has dropped. Surely the banker will ruin Spike's day now.....

Here's out state of play:

1p

£10

£100
£75,000

£250,000

Box numbers left - 5, 7, 16, 18, Spike is holding Box No 3.

Bankers offer............... £33,000

Oh no!! He did deal too early....... lets hope his next 3 picks are better!

Why does he keep making offers even though I've already said deal? What is point?
