Spoiler alert - don't read on if you intend to watch later.
It was one of those games that got average offers, such as £10k and £15k.
Touch and go as to whether she dealed for £15k, with 2 blues and 3 reds left.
Anyway, she goes on to have the £250 and £100,000 left.
She is offered £23k. Now £23k is a fair amount of money to most people.
£250 came to the table yesterday, and she was adament it wouldn't come to the table again.
She no dealed.
You can guess the rest 
Muppet imho. Granted, you might be a gambler etc. Then, (when in denial imho) she says how she has had an amazing experience that she is likely to never experience again. Bollocks. You could have had an amazing experience and £23k.

tbh, not that bad. She only had £250. Different if it was £20k and £100k.
I know I would have dealed. £23k would have got me out of Uni debt, meant I didn't have to work for the final year of Uni have £200/month and then been able to get a new car.

should've at least got a 35k offer at the end.
didn't watch it but i can guess shes an idiot.
but, like my dad says, you go there with nothing and leave with something.
life is full of if's and but's, but you won't know your fate until you do something to seal it.

and if the 2 boxes left were £1k and £100k, they should get a £50k offer if it's fair.

Ben, both things you've said defeat the object of the game. The idea with low offers, is so the 'Banker' (i.e. Channel 4 and the program's funders) don't have to pay out big money.
She was tempted by the £23k BUT thought she'd gamble, obviously for other reasons though.
If they did a 50/50 inbetween offer, the program would lose too much money, because they aren't tempting the players to gamble.
Granted, if she had £75k and £100k, with an offer of £85k, I'd probably gamble, because £75k is still a lot.
But the gap was too big to gamble imho.

i would've took the 23k though, could put a deposit down on a house and refurbish it to how you want.
