Dot's game today.

Noel introduces us to the seaside specials week, and all the contestants are dressed up in seaside outfits, and Noel is dressed as an ice-cream seller, with suitable set dressings too The boxes are blue and have seagulls and sea and sand decorations on them

Noel says when we have a DOND special, something special happens, and this time we have an ice-cream cart and it gives the player an opportunity to get an offer after every box. The player also has the opportunity to win a holiday!

I like the Summer look, very classy

Anyways, sure hope Dot gets us off to a great start before the Season 4 Finale

I'm loving the boxes this week.

Dot has box 6.

Noel tells Dot to take the pier of wealth Dot has 2 jars of shallots, one for the banker and one for Noel! She says they give you the runs!! Dot is from Cambridgeshire and is a retired postmistress and pub landlady. She says she had the pub for 5 years. We get to see some pics of the dart team she's a member of, and an old B&W pic of her wedding day.

Here we go...

Dot has a system with her which is based on the dartboard.

The banker phones and explains the twist during these specials. If the player gets to 5-box, they get to choose one of two ice-cream flavours. One of them has SUN, the other has RAIN. If the player finds SUN, they get an offer after every box and a holiday. If they find RAIN, the banker looks in the player's box to see what's in it, but he'll also guarantee a SWAP.

Sign of the times that C4 has to advertise the company providing the holidays.

10 - Milly - 1p

Perfect start

Dot says her eyesight and hearing is going, and she spots that Noel has what she thinks is a hearing aid in his ear, so Noel gives it to her, and she says hello to the bloke who is talking to her He asks her to give Noel his thing back Dot says it was the floor bloke, and then she says let's get on with this game

15 - Irene - £250

2 - Eileen - £5

WHAT A START! says Noel

17 - Gail - £250,000

Noel says Gail has had the £250k 3 times in a row, and it's more hurricane than "gail"

3 - Nic - £5,000

Banker time

It was looking strong till the biggie went!

Dot says NO DEAL

19 - Jazmin - £100

7 - Calum - £750

Noel says the floor guy says it's time for a break, and Dot calls the break

Here's hoping there's an all blue round after the break...

Her box 6 is actually the last one of the 20 numbers on the dartboard in her sequence, which should be

16

8
11
14

9
12
5

20
1
18

4
13
21 or 22

Sods law says that Gail will probably play tomorrow and have a blue.

We're back

Dot introduces us to the family members she has in the audience

8 - Spencer - £50

Banker time

And it is!

Noel says Dot likes having a gamble and she says she often goes to the betting shop.

Banker's offer:

£9,180

Dot says that's good and would get 2 wheels of the car she wants!

Dot says NO DEAL

Very strong £100k board but players won't get any decent offers until 5 box this week.

11 - Jim - £10

Noel says this is fantastic as Dot has a brilliant board.
