Daniela's game today.

Noel says we have just learnt that we are starting the Christmas Specials from Monday, and this year it is a pantomime theme, and they are now looking among the contestants for suitable costumes for them.

Daniela has box 19 today.

Daniela is from Brighton, and is a concierge consultant for a credit card company, and she talks about some of the more bizarre things she has had to arrange. She has her partner in the audience for support, and has been with him for 15 years, but have never got around to getting married. We see a picture of Daniela's daughter, and she also has a little guardian angel that belongs to her daughter.


Here we go...

Round 1

Daniela is keeping a couple of special numbers until the end, they are 16 and 13.

18 - £5,000 Clare

4 - £10 Shakira

5 - £250,000 Emma

8 - £10,000 Elaine

11 - £750 Peter

Banker time

The Banker thanks Emma for the Christmas gift. He has been looking forward to Daniela's game as she has a lovely voice.

Banker's offer:

£3,000

Noel gets a pilgrim to groan into the microphone for that offer. The Banker calls and says that there is a lady sitting next to Daniela's partner who said she didn't want to appear on TV! Noel talks to her and she is called Holly, which Noel thinks is great for the Christmas theme and he promises not to highlight her throughout the show.

Daniela says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break....

We're back

Noel runs through of some of Daniela's dreams

Round 2

14 - £1,000 Iain

The newbie next, and Noel warns everyone that he is the most nervous newbie they have ever had, so he promises not to dwell on him too much, but then chats to him for ages! The Banker then calls and says that he does look very nervous and wouldn't want to make things any worse. The Banker says that if Shakeel doesn't open the box perfectly the next offer will be 1p and also Holly will have to stand beside the gameboard for the whole game!

15 - £5 Newbie Shakeel

3 - £1 Mark

Banker time

Daniela says she can get her new kitchen with that and have a little left over.

Daniela says

NO DEAL

Round 3

20 - £100 Gail

2 - £50,000 Frank

Noel gets Daniela to call the break...

We're back
Last box before the Banker

1 - 50p Lavinne

Banker time

The Banker thinks it is appropriate that Daniela is playing just before Christmas as she has a warming Christmas story. Daniela tells us that they were really lucky a couple of years ago to take their daughter to Lapland to see Father Christmas, but she was so excited about meeting him that she threw up all over him!

Banker's offer:

£9,000

Daniela says that is an amazing amount of money, and she has an overdraft that she hasn't been able to get out of for years. Her partner says that it is good money, but she still has a good boards.

Daniela says

NO DEAL

Round 4

22 - 10p Daphne

7 - £50 Ioannis

Daniela hunts for the 1p now, but doesn't think Lawrence looks as though he would have it.

6 - 1p Lawrence

Banker time

The Banker says that was unbelievable as Daniela hit the bottom 3, and there was a 0.6% chance of hitting that.

Banker's offer:

£23,000

Was thinking it would be £20,000.... with such a strong board it's very worth another round.

Daniela says that is amazing, and now wonders what she has in her box, she goes to the wings for advice. Iain says he would play on, and Lavinne agrees, although Amy Jo says that she would deal. Daniela goes to her partner, and he says he would play on now. Daniela says that she really wants to keep box 13 as it has strong connections with her late mum.

Daniela says

NO DEAL

Noel calls another break....

Just tuned in. £23k?!
Wasn't expecting that much!

Noel just said no-one's been offered as much as £23k at the 4th offer, without the £250k being there.
