Despite his teammates saying he could do the £35k, Sam took the low offer.
He said: “I think they need me back. I’ve come in with a game plan today. I’m going to take the one thousand.”
Bradley Walsh said: “Come with a game plan… I like it.”
Despite taking the low offer, Sam was beat by The Beast and went home with nothing.
What did viewers say?
Viewers were fuming that he took the low offer and poked fun at Sam’s “game plan”.
