Saw the last few minutes of deal or no deal today.
Hadn't see it in a while.
Lady contestant kept taking a chance.
Had 5 boxes left, 4 red including the 75k and 100k.
Was offered 26k, 29k and eventually 69k.
Kept going until she had a 5k box and the 100k left.
Refused the 69k offer from the banker and eventually ended up winning the 5k.
Not sure of a she was brave, stupid or mean.

Wow that is some gamble.
Guaranteed 69K or gamble 100K for 5K.
I wouldn't have thought there was a decision to be made here.

Thick Scouser on an old episode of The Chase.

Q. What 1940's musical featured the song New York New York?
A. Chicago.

There was a second question about a musical and she laughed and said ''Chicago'' - Bradley managed to keep a straight face and carry on with the questions.

A final laugh was the question which team won the first Merseyside derby in (year given)?
She replied ''Liverpool'' in great hope and expectation only to groan when the answer was given as Everton!

The rot set in when they changed “Warwick Road” to “Old Trafford”. I’ve never got over it.
