Happy New Year everyone.

Noel wishes us all a happy new year, he wonders what happens to the contestants when they take the walk of wealth and how it seems to change them and they seem to lose courage.

It's Frank's turn to take the walk of wealth and he has box 2 today, he used to be an electrician and Noel reckons there will loads of electrical jokes today!!! Frank says he is a big gambler although his wife sitting behind him in the audience is not aware of this!!!

Frank has system but he loses Noel and me in explaining it!!!
