Those of you who saw Deal or No Deal on 3rd November will have seen Helen Burton-Margett’s positive attitude in the face of defeat. When Helen got to the last two boxes she could either win £200 or £30,000. Unfortunately it was the £200 box Helen chose. However, because she had been so lovely during her time on the program the banker awarded her a further £5,250. Helen had said ‘It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice’. She really is a lovely person, who cares about other people and making the world a better place. Just goes to show that Helen’s approach to life pays off!
