For all you fans of Golden Balls, would you split or steal? Be honest...

For those of you who haven't a clue what I'm on about, read this.

Ugh, why exactly is the sort of thread that'd be right at home at TVF or lower doing here? Being one of those highly intellectual types who hasn't watched ITV1 since whenever it was since they had a rebrand last, I still don't know.

The true winners on here actually GO on Balls of Steel.

Personally I find the show baffling.

Is this some sort of new fangled steak I've never heard of?

I personally find STEAL - STEAL ending most satisfying. Especially when the wankers have both just previously shook hands agreeing to split. Can't be doing with watching the rest of it though, particularly the previous round where the principle is no better then Deal or No Deal.

Has Gav finally made it onto Balls of Steel?

Pah, he's been there, done that. Hopefully he's slapped Jasper Carrott in his stupid little face too.

I've never seen this game show, but my suspicion as an economist is that the steal-steal outcome is going to be the most common. The only way that parties could be expected to split is if they had strong trust in one another - which to me would seem unlikely for two game show contestants who are perfect strangers prior to filming.

Strangers even during the filming. Each of us were escorted during filming breaks to stop us from speaking to the others.

Despite that, many go on to split the money.

I wouldn't have made my mind up until I knew who I was in the final with. There was only one trustworthy looking person there, but she went off in the first round.

Go on then - I just know you're tempted to ask anyway:
