HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE.

Hope you had a fantastic night last night (whatever you did), and hope you will have a happy, healthy and prosperous 2010.

Haz's game today.

Noel wishes everyone a Happy New Year. Noel says he's got a New Year Resolution to promote the niceness of the banker, but he doesn't think it'll last!

Happy New Year everyone. This could be an interesting game.

Haz has box 3.

It looks like there are a few tweaks to the graphics too, so watch out for those.

Noel has a go at Haz for his dress sense and says he looks like a reject from a ballet!!! Harry (Haz) is from Lancashire but he went to London on a whim and got a flat and a job! He says he experienced 2 muggings but he managed to run away. He says he they threatened to mash him up, and Noel asks Tina what that means!!

Haz is currently applying to uni to study theatre. We get to see a pic of Haz and his sisters.

Here we go....

We've had 3 New Year's Day games, one wonderful £36K OPW and 2 blue wins from the box.

Oh wow , we got new graphics on the sums!

The new board graphics in the studio do make sense. I saw them when I was there in October and wondered why they looked different.

Round 1

The banker phones and wishes everyone a happy new year. He compares Haz to Gok Wan, Buddy Holly and Where's Wally and others!!! If Haz finds 1p or ANY value with a 10 in it in the opening round, everyone in the studio will get a bottle of bubbly.

Noel gets a drumroll to accompany all the box openings...

6 - Bel - £15,000

The values on the board have had a revamp, and there's now a window-blind type effect when a value goes off the board!

15 - Glenda - £3,000

2 - Courtney - 50p

10 - H - £5,000

7 - Nat - Noel calls a break!

The different shades of blue/red on the board have gone, haven't they? They're now just either red or blue - no more 'oranges'!

The on-screen graphics seem to be slightly different as well.

The labels in the boxes have changed as well

We're back

Last box before the Banker

The drumroll for Nat is still going! Will they all get their bottle of bubbly?!?

7 - Nat - £500

They don't get their bubbly!!

Banker time

I make it an 89% chance of hitting a box that's a power of 10 in the first 5 boxes so that was pretty unlucky for the audience

Have we ever had a break there before?

The banker says that's tough luck, losers!! He says he'll have a bath in the left over bubbly now. He's tempted to offer £2,010 but he says the board's too strong.

Banker's offer:

£10,000

Haz says NO DEAL

He had 1p, 10p, £10 or £10,000 to find as the £100,£1k and £100k don't start verbally with "ten" so the odds were less than winning the gold envelope prize during Santa or Scrooge. I make it 67.5% chance of finding one of those 4 in the first 5 boxes.

Round 2

Haz touches the floor in order to touch wood so his game's not jinxed!! He gets Noel to say something negative so he can touch wood again!! He then gives Noel a lesson in touching wood!

8 - David - £1,000

Lyn now, and he says Haz has been a fantastic "whatever" Noel says how rude!

4 - Lyn - £250,000

The £250,000 graphic now explodes into a puff of black smoke!

Haz touches the floor again and Noel asks why he's wearing cartoon underpants!! Haz says it's so Noel has something to read if he falls over

5 - Shell - £250

Banker time

The banker says he was impressed by the way Haz took the loss of the £250,000.

Banker's offer:

£7,500

Haz says NO DEAL

Oh sorry
my first post in ages and it's wrong

I'm looking forward to what is gonna make this show stretch to an hour though!

Round 3

Beth now, and she wishes Haz good luck, so he touches the floor again! Noel tries to find out what the players can and can't say to Haz...

17 - Beth - £100,000

9 - George - £100

Haz says the £250 went after the £250k and now the £100 went after the £100k, and how spooky it is. Noel starts to say something and Haz yells at him!!

14 - Vikki - Haz tells us we're going behind the scenes later on and he calls a break...
