On todays show, the acting contestant dealt with 11 boxes remaining. He accepted £27,500, with the average box worth £48,500.
With eight boxes left, the banker offered £55,000, EXACTLY double the previous offer. But the average box was worth about £61,000.
The last 5 were, £5, £250, £750, £50k and £250k = £301,005. The average box is worth £60,201. The banker offered £66,000. Why??? All the time of course, we get the “if only you had carried on one/two more rounds…”, and amazingly, the contestant is in tears that he didn’t carry.
The last two boxes were £5 and £50k, the banker offered £17,500.
The very first offer was £17,500, the contestant said “thats a brilliant offer, noel, you can ask me the question”…..if it was so brilliant, why didn’t he take it.
