A STUDENT last night won £250,000 on Deal Or No Deal after gambling between the top prize box and the one containing just a PENNY.
Daring Alice Mundy, 22, had already said “Deal” when offered £17,500 for the mystery value of her box midway through the show.
But she kept eliminating boxes until the only ones left in play were those worth £250,000 and 1p.
The banker then asked if she wanted to gamble her £17,500 for all or almost nothing.
She agreed in a first for the Channel 4 show — making the audience gasp.
When host Noel Edmonds revealed her box contained the jackpot — only the second time it has been won — she burst into tears.
Alice, of Magor, South Wales said: “I’m not going to look back.”
I watched this yesterday afternoon and burst into tears myself when she won. Congratulations, Alice :cheer:
