Alan’s Story
24 year old Alan Endersby took the walk of wealth. At just 20 years old Alan was diagnosed with testicular cancer, which later spread to his lungs. After battling the disease and on the road to recovery, he met the love of his life Nadine who was cruelly taken from him in a tragic traffic accident last year. Despite all this Alan had dedicated his time to raise thousands of pounds to help premature babies, as Nadine was training to be a midwife.

Alan’s Game
Alan wanted to play the game with no regrets. With no system he also admitted he would make it up as he went along. The opening round produced £20,000, £10, £15,000, £1,000 and 50p in a decent start. The Banker warned everyone that there would be no special treatment, with an opening offer of £7,700 – NO DEAL.
An excellent Round Two saw £3,000; 10p and 1p strengthen the game. The Banker reacted to this offering £12,700 – NO DEAL.
Noel found about a bit more about Alan’s charity work. Fundraising for BLISS due to Nadine’s training, Alan organised several boot sales, coffee mornings and other events. With over £5,000 raised so far, Alan was able to name a star after Nadine. Everyone was optimistic going into Round Three but £35,000, £100 and £50,000 were found. The Banker felt unnerved by Alan’s positivity, so offered £14,700. After a lot of support from friends and family, Alan decided to NO DEAL.
A nightmare Round Four saw £250,000, £100,000 and £1 amounts wiped from the board. The Banker said he had never experienced the amount of love and encouragement 22 people have given to one person. £7,000 was the fourth offer – NO DEAL.
The game improved during Round Five where £5, £5,000 and £250 were revealed. The Banker’s fifth offer was £13,700 - NO DEAL. Alan saved the best till last £500, £750 and £50 concluded a brilliant all blue sixth round. The Banker admitted he couldn’t defeat Alan’s positive attitude so he offered a whopping £37,000 – DEAL. Alan’s lucky Box 7 heartbreakingly contained £75,000 - his dream amount.
Alan didn’t stay downhearted for long as he also received, a special message from Ian Wright, a signed shirt and ball, a full kit for his team Haynes FC, and four nights at a top golfing school including 5 days golf tuition. Alan also received a full set of professional clubs and a custom fitting to build his own clubs under the supervision of the professionals who build the clubs for the tour players.
