Bert's game today.

Noel looks at all the contestants because they've been dressed up as Christmas dinner food items for the last week! Everyone is dressed smartly today for New Year's Eve.

Last game of 2012 will hopefully go out with a BIG BANG! and a mega spanking.

There won't be much leaping about today then.

Hopefully, a good game to finish off the year. Been looking forward to Bert's game!

Think Bert will be worth a watch. First game for me in a while.

Hope it's of good enough broadcast quality to see out this year.

Bert has box 7.

Noel says Bert recently celebrated his birthday while he was on the show and he's now 94! He asks Bert if it's all still working and he says not everything, as the memory's gone a bit. He talks about his late wife Doris and how she was his life partner. He shows a pic of him go-karting on his 93rd birthday! Bert has his cleaners in the audience. The banker rings and says it's obvious that Bert wants to take him to the cleaners.

Here we go...

Round 1

Bert says he wants to live to at least 105 as his sister died at 101 and he wants to beat her!

1 - Steve - £5

2 - Dan - £20,000

3 - Luca - £50

4 - newbie Irene - £250,000

Noel says Irene's like the Queen Mum!

5 - Mike - £15,000

Banker time

The banker says he's had an expensive Christmas and is introducing austerity measures, so he nicked the studio decorations from the office over the road!

Banker's offer:

£1,094

Was expecting the offer to be £2012

Bert chooses box 6 before answering the question! He then says some things and makes some gestures which triggers Noel to question whether Bert knows what he is and isn't allowed to say and do on the show.

Bert says

NO DEAL


Noel calls a break...

We're back

Round 2

6 - Lynda - £1,000

8 - Trev - £250

Bert talks about the bombers he's flown.

9 - Ryan - £75,000

Banker time

Second break at 19 minutes past... bit early than usual.

Noel asks Bert what his favourite position is.

Bert says

NO DEAL


Noel calls a break...

I wonder if the joke offers are a deliberate ploy to show Bert's personality and cut down on thinking time.......

What joke offers are you talking about?

£555 is a joke offer. Yes really.

No, not when you have taken out the quarter mill and other significant reds.

Even tough the mean was a tad over £14,500?

Wow, that's far fetched even by your lofty standards.
