It's going to be a really brave person who eventually wins the 250 grand.Wonder if we'd read about it in the papers before it was shown.

Well there would have to be a healthy sum of money left as well as the £250k for someone to risk it, I reckon.

I think if Germaine had kept the 50k and 250k he would have gone for it

Brilliant show today. Germaine left with £75k, but had the £250k in his box! He was cool as a cucumber throughout though. Yes, and as it was sequence D, I knew he had it! Although if I was in his position, with know knowledge of the sequences, I'd definitely have done what he did and taken the £75k. It's right about Monday's show - it didn't follow any of the 6 sequences I posted in the table earlier so I assumed they'd fixed the "Excel problem" - but apparently it was a sequence that had been used before. Still not sure if tomorrow's (Wednesday's) is the last one using the sequences or the first one not to, having been fixed. Heard different reports.

I think if Germaine had kept the 50k and 250k he would have gone for it I agree, that is the only way someone will gamble, is if they have a 2 big boxes left, and are happy to have 30k if they miss out on the 250k.

It's about time Marcus was picked. He's been there for weeks!

Marcus will be picked on Saturday - it is logical that he gets the primetime game. Lucy's another one that should be picked, but apparently she won't be picked for quite some time

Generally the contestant chosen will have been on for around 20 shows, although there have been some exceptions (Garvan who was only on for 8 shows, Daz had about 10 shows). Some will stay on for much longer, Gill was there for close to 30 shows, Lucy apparently stays for 50 shows!

So it was Marcus today.I think he dealt a deal too soon.Was surprised when he did.The Sat show is padded out too much to fit an hour's slot.

Did anyone notice around the third break, the studio felt empty so they use the screen to show the person and boxes. They should keep it with the 45 minute format, Marcus was great today

Brilliant show, even if he did certainly deal too soon.

Yes he certainly dealt too soon and disregarded everyone's advice.

Very surprised he dealt so early. even I Mr Cautious would have gone another round, he had the FOUR big ones left, if even if he was very unlucky and took out 3, he would still have had at least 50k left to play with. But 31k will be good for him, so that is ok.

I'm looking forward to Marcus' show. I don't have insider info. It's on the Digital Spy forums. I guess it would be too predictable if each contestant had 22 shows before they got their turn. Plus you have to account for people not being well (Geordie, David and Dave). I didn't see it on Saturday Oh, and did someone called Audrey just disappear, I'm sure she was stood on Patrick's right but now there's someone called Janet?
