Determined to get the HugWatch Crown again, Jaye raced across from the East Wing to give Maggie aka McMummy and McCuddles a well-deserved hug. The darling of the East Wing Gang was closely followed by Lynsey, who's never reluctant to dish out a cuddle!!!

There were then hugs and kisses from Brian the Beardmeister, Cuddly Claudine and West Winger Gary who also got a hug from Maggie at the end of Part 1 of the show. As the titles continued to roll on, the rest of the Gang had gathered round the Pound Table and you could see Lucy from the West Wing give Maggie a Cutilicious Cuddle, while Donna, today's LTL voiceover lady, was waiting in anticipation to hug McMummy.

Time to see the Leader Board:

Sunday 3rd December: Simon
Monday 4th December: Jaye!!!
Tuesday 5th December: Jaye!!!

Can Jaye continue to dominate the HugWatch Stakes or is today her swan-song? Will Simon, G.K. or Alfie be crowned HugWatch King? Will Karen, Donna or Lynsey win the crown and do the ladies proud? Find out in what I hope will be another thrilling instalment of HugWatch....

Boy, it was a Spectacular today!!! Yes, it was Jaye's game today and she was very keen to dish out the hugs during proceedings. Firstly, she gave West Winger Jenny a hug during round 1 after the 1p was revealed and later on, when she was contemplating the 4th offer, she raced across to the East Wing to give good pal Lynsey a hug.

Not suprisingly, in the HugWatch Stakes at the end following the LTL, Lynsey was the first to sprint across to the Pound Table and give Jaye a hug. Lucy, Karen, Danny and Gary all followed suit while the rest of the West Wingers and East Wing Gang were waiting in anticipation to give the HugWatch veteran further hugs and kisses.

LONG LIVE JAYE!!! HugWatch Queen on so many occasions during her tenure on the East Wing!!!

Here's how the Leader Board is shaping up now:

At the end of Mike's emotional game, there was a mad, mad rush to congratulate him on dealing at the right time. Simon walked over from the West Wing and was the first to give Mike a hug. Lynsey then raced over from the East Wing and treated us to some hugging and swaying action!!! WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!

Yet again, Simon won the HugWatch Stakes today. He strolled across to the Pound Table to be the first to give Jim a well-needed hug following his disappointing £250 win.

The rest of the West Wingers and East Wing Gang then gathered around and there were more hugs from the likes of Karen, today's LTL voiceover, Alfie, Wendy, perveyor of impotence treatments and not forgetting Cuddly Claudine!!!

Now, let's have a first look at this week's HugWatch Leader Board:

Today's HugWatch Stakes weren't as much of a HugFest as on previous days due to the ending of Donna's game but Simon won today for the fifth time in a row because he was the first to arrive at the Pound Table and give Donna the Colchester Cutie a well-deserved long hug.

There were then more hugs from Karen and Ooooh Sarah, as the rest of the time was devoted to Ooooh Sarah giving Donna some words of wisdom after dishing out her hug. Here's how the Leader Board is shaping up:

Sunday 10th December: Simon
Monday 11th December: Simon
Tuesday 12th December: Simon

WOW, Simon's been HugWatch King FIVE times in a row!!! Will he continue to be unstoppable? Will there be a HugWatch Queen? If so, will it be Karen, Wendy or Ooooh Sarah who came third today? Find out in Wednesday's HugWatch Report....

It was all change in the HugWatch Stakes today!!! Simon, King of HugWatch five times in a row, played his game today so he was out of the running for the crown. While Brian was the first to arrive at the Pound Table, he didn't give Simon a hug so Alfie is today's HugWatch King.

There were then hugs from the likes of Karen, Danny and, later on, Cuddly Claudine. By this time, everyone else had gathered at the Pfundtisch eager to give Simon more hugs and kisses. Here's the Leader Board:

Sunday 10th December: Simon
Monday 11th December: Simon
Tuesday 12th December: Simon
Wednesday 13th December: Alfie

So, will Alfie be as dominant in the HugWatch Stakes as Simon? Will Wendy, G.K. or Karen get the crown? Will we see some sprinting to the Pound Table? Find out in Thursday's edition of good ol' HugWatch....

Another round of the HugWatch Stakes with a difference. Yes, it was dominated by the East Wing Gang. Cuddly Claudine rushed to the Pound Table to give Ooooh Sarah a hug, so Claudine is the first HugWatch Queen for a while and this is the first time that Claudine has won the crown!!!

There were then hugs from fellow East Wing Gang members Brian the Beardmeister, G.K. and Wendy and by this time everyone else had gathered around de pondtafel to dish out hugs and kisses. Before any of the West Wingers could get to Sarah, hubbie Scott had come down from the audience to give her a hug.

Now, let's take a look at the Leader Board:

Sunday 10th December: Simon
Monday 11th December: Simon
Tuesday 12th December: Simon
Wednesday 13th December: Alfie
Thursday 14th December: Claudine

Will Cuddly Claudine be the first to dish out a Cutilicious Cuddle? Will Alfie win the HugWatch Stakes? Will G.K. be HugWatch King for the first time? Find out all the answers to these questions and more in Friday's HugWatch....

A show with a difference ended with a round of the HugWatch Stakes with a difference. Yes, for the first time ever, Wendy was Queen of HugWatch as she sprinted to the Pound Table and was the first to give Brian the Beardmeister a hug.

Just like yesterday, the Stakes were dominated by the East Wing Gang because G.K. was the next to dish out a hug followed by Paul, Cuddly Claudine and Ravishing Rachel. By this time, everyone else had gathered around Brian the Beardmeister while Noel was finishing his closing speech and the titles rolled to an end.

Now, let's see what the HugWatch Leader Board looks like:

Sunday 10th December: Simon
Monday 11th December: Simon
Tuesday 12th December: Simon
Wednesday 13th December: Alfie
Thursday 14th December: Claudine
Friday 15th December: Wendy

Will Wendy keep it up and win the HugWatch Crown on Sunday? Will Cuddly Claudine be the first to dish out a hug? Will G.K. be triumphant? Will anyone on the West Wing have a bite of the cherry? Find out in the Sunday edition of HugWatch....

After Cuddly Claudine from Cardiff became the second biggest ever winner of DoND, there was a mad, mad rush to congratulate her. Karen was today's Queen of HugWatch as she was the first to rush over to the Pound Table and give Claudine a hug.

Fellow West Wingers Craig and Alfie closely followed and GK of the East Wing Gang then dished out another hug. By this time, the rest of the West Wingers and the East Wing Gang had gathered around Claudine and sister Michelle and it was difficult to see who else was hugging the £107,031 winner as some of the other contestants were in the way!!!

Will Karen be crowned HugWatch Queen again? Will Craig, Wendy, GK or Alfie win the HugWatch Stakes? Will Nicola, Paul or John be quick enough to gain the title that all DoND contestants are eager to have?

WOAH, what a show!!! Not only was today's game rather unusual, so were the HugWatch Stakes at the end of the show after the LTL. Yes, Craig, Conor and Joey were the first three to arrive at the Pound Table but none of them gave a hug, so don't win the HugWatch Crown.

Today's Queen of HugWatch is therefore Mariette, as she was the first to dish out a hug but fourth to arrive at de pondtafel. There were then hugs and kisses from fellow West Wingers Lucy and Jenny and by this time, everyone else had gathered around John to congratulate him.

For the first time this week, here's the Leader Board:

Sunday 17th December: Karen
Monday 18th December: Mariette

Will Mariette manage to win the HW Crown again? Will Karen be HugWatch Queen when she comes back? Will Conor or Craig EVER dish out a hug? Will GK, Nicola or Wendy do the East Wing Gang proud? Find out in Tuesday's HugWatch report....
