Alex's game today.

Noel welcomes us to the dream factory and talks about the bad week we have just had, especially Claire's game on Friday where it never really got going and gave her a chance to win big. Noel talks about how anyone can be called out at anytime, and goes through the wings asking the contestants how many games they have done.

Noel also talks about the banker's threat of the battle of the sexes....

Ooh yay. This should be fun

Good luck Alex from a fellow Alex!!

Nice to see Noel talking about romance after one of the papers stories about him proposing with a £2.50 ring

Alex has box 13 today. Noel says it must have been a surprise for him today, as otherwise he would have dressed up

Noel asks Alex about the book he wants to write, and it's based around the demise of personal contact, and now people tend to hide behind emails, and text messages... Noel asks if Alex is single at the moment, and he replies he is, and Noel tells him there will be waves of females heading for the dream factory now....

Alex has a system and has 8 numbers that he will be saving...

Banker time

Ooh dear...

Not a nice opener

The banker calls very quickly, and Noel doesn't get the chance to ask Alex how the game is going... The banker says he is very excited at how the last 2 games have gone, and he is now changing how he was going to compare males to females!!

For 2 weeks he will only play males, and then for the following 2 weeks he will only play females, and after the month he will total up the winnings and see who is luckier... The winning sex will then get prizes...

Alex says

NO DEAL

Next round

3 - £500

20 - £20,000

Noel says he can sense rays beaming into his back, and he says its all the ladies in the audience staring at them....

Noel calls a break, and promises all the ladies he will reveal Alex's phone number after the break!!!

Noel's naughty Saturdays might make a comeback... starting with Alex!

Well, that's an interesting sounding twist! Not sure how they're going to do it without contestants having really short runs, but I'm sure there'll find a way!

Iffy start boardwise but there's plenty more in the game. Hope he does well!

We're back and it's viewer competition time...

Today is box 2 containing £3,000


Back to the game...

Last box before the banker...

Noel apologises as he can't give out Alex's phone number as Emily in the audience wanted it first!! Alex writes his number down for her, and Noel runs up and gives it to her, and he finds out that she wrote her number down for Alex!!

18 - £1,000

Banker time

Haha that phone number stuff was hilarious!!
