    Being out of work for the summer I came across this show the otherday.

    I saw a girl rob some single dad if 3 of like 57k, I really really had to laugh.

    Anyone seen it? I can't watch it in real time though, much like deal or no deal I have to sky + it and fast forward through the endless fluff.

    I dunno how they can do it, surely they are told to steal or something because I can't see anyone being so heartless to steal major money.

    The show is terrible bur it is amusing me at the moment.

    I've seen it several times.

    More often than not, at least one of the two contestants in the end game chooses their steal ball (like the girl you're talking about) and either that contestant steals all the money on offer, or the other contestant also chooses their steal ball, meaning that they both go home with nothing.

    And it happens even if the amount of money on offer is tiny, like £37.50.

    Most people say that it's greed that prompts these contestants to choose the steal ball, and TBH it's hard to disagree.

    And don't forget all the arguing that usually takes place in the earlier rounds of the show...

    Think Challenge is the only channel on which you can watch it now - ITV appear to have quietly axed it, and replaced it with Divided, another show that has its fair share of greed and arguing.

    Stealing is the only logical thing to do in the last round to be fair though.

    Oh wow, this show is priceless.

    The format is just sickening, how the biggest scumbag liar butthole wins all the money.

    It is funny when the host says things like, "Check your balls now" and "We are going to have to remove your balls", though. :D
