Gareth's game today.

Noel starts off the show by saying the show is always honest with its viewers, and he runs through some events in the past where the show has been very honest. He says there's been travel chaos in Bristol this afternoon! As such, lots of audience members couldn't make it, so we have lots of DoND's crew and staff in the audience today. Noel says this doesn't change a thing and we're going to have a sensational game today.

Was the one left to last on Friday and had the £250k. Hopefully a mega banking spanking today.

And it's the guy who's had the big one so many times, have a bad feeling about this game

Typically, people who have a lot of high numbers on the wings bring blues to the table.

Gareth has box 2.

Noel comments on the number of big values Gareth has had while he's been on the wings! Noel says Gareth is a 'stay at home' dad and he talks a bit about his new family. He talks about how he normally works in tree surgery and his target today is to get enough money to train and get his career sorted. Gareth's partner is in the audience today and she gives a strange wave to Noel.

We get to see a pic of their daughter and Gareth shows us a little box which has a peanut in it! He says they have a nickname for their daughter which is 'peanut' which is why he has one with him today...

Here we go....

I'm not sure putting a peanut on the box isn't just giving the banker ammunition later if it's a 1-box game.

Round 1

20 - Fran - £3,000

21 - Sal - £10

6 - newbie Emma H - £20,000

18 - Dave - £1

4 - Paul - £5,000

Banker time

Box 2 on the table, think we know where Davey's going

And that is a very balanced start

The banker says we've got the ugliest, stupidest bunch of pilgrims today, and he tells them to get back to work. He says he's worried about what Gareth has in his box and says he's an enigma.

Banker's offer:

£12,500

Where has the 6th QM come from?

Gareth says NO DEAL

Round 2

10 - Brendan - £5

1 - Lisa - £10,000

Noel gets Gareth to call a break.

7 Boxes down and he has the Power Five in play, good to see that happening

No idea - I make it 5 times he's had it - in the games of Kath, Brenda, Davinia, Julie and Andy G

Of course, we can't mention the snow otherwise it might give away the illusion of DOND being filmed months in advance.

We're back

Last box before the Banker

Noel says this is a different game because we have a lot of staff members in the studio today. Noel has a go at the camera man who is also sitting in the audience!

7 - Craig - £250

Banker time

Funny moment there with the Craig David joke

Box 2 on the table, belonging to a £250,000 slag...I hate this already

Noel says this board is an interesting configuration and the banker recognises Gareth's dreams and determination.

Banker's offer:

£19,000

Repeat after me.. this is a random game... this is a random game.......
