Contestant Nay Nay won a whopping £75,000 on the ITV show and is still ‘lost for words’ following her victory which aired on 3 January.

If anything, it gives her a little more time to plan what to do with the money.

“All the emotions came back,” she recalled to the outlet.

“I started crying again when I was watching it, just because it’s a life-changing amount of money.

“My strategy was my faith.

“I knew I was going to the end so my main thing is I wanted to ensure that I had fun, which I definitely did.

“I mean, my game was so fun. I remember screaming, crying, laughing, and it was just amazing.”

Nay Nay also isn’t bothered by the fact that on the original show on Channel 4, contestants could receive a jackpot of up to £250,000, whereas in the ITV version, it’s been cut by £150,000.

“When I went on the show it was more than just about the money,” she explained.

“For me, it was just about following faith, having a new experience and meeting the people that I would have never met before. I’ve met some friends for life; we’re all going to go on holiday together.

“The experience is more than money can buy. The money is just a bonus.”

One of her highlights was a message she received from an elderly lady who ‘said she was a grandma herself, and she saw my grandma on the TV, and she was just watching my game alone and said it restored her faith.’

“That just made me so happy: to inspire someone by being yourself and by having faith,” she added.

Commenting on the history-making episode, one viewer said: “I am not a tv watching guy, but I happened to catch #DealOrNoDeal on ITV. What a game this lady, Nay Nay had. She went right to the end. Turning down deal after deal, right up to declining an £82,700 offer for her box. She eventually walked away with £75,000! More than enough for a deposit on her flat! Good game!”
