Favorite moment: In December of '09, a contestant on the UK version by the name of Neil goes on a hot streak in the first half of his game. His first five picks don't knock off anything lower than £1000 (and knocks out the penny), he doesn't scratch the Power Five until his eighth pick takes out £35,000, and he keeps the top four money amounts in play with 8 boxes to go. But shockingly, he Deals at 8-box for £35,000, explaining that "the numbers weren't coming to me anymore". Almost everyone in the studio - including Neil himself - thinks he's made a massive mistake. But in the playout, he proceeds to knock out all of the top four amounts, in sequence. The looks on everyone's faces when he takes out the £50,000 to secure a Spanking were priceless.
Least favorite moment: Some retired sergeant from the Army was playing, and carried $1M and one other big number (I think $750K) deep into the game. As the offers get bigger and bigger, the contestant's whiny son keeps begging him to Deal, worried that it's all going to collapse if he plays on. Army guy knocks out the safety net on the way to 6-box, and gets a pitiful $99,000 offer. With no more fallback number and his son imploring him to bail out, he decides to Deal. It's then revealed that he had the million all along, and Private Pyle just screwed him out of a whole lot of money. I was seriously expecting this guy to tell his son to drop and give him 901,000.
