Today is the turn of Ian in the crazy chair in the fourth of the Christmas Star specials.

Here is a little bit about Ian from the thread in the spoilers forum:



We are shown a short video introducing us to Ian and his life.

Well the stats are back, I hope you missed them

The first 3 shows have been great, 1 power 5 win and 2 very close for great people, lets hope today's can perform as well!

Ian has his daughters in the audience. Noel thanks Ian for bringing some prettiness to the pilgrims in the form of his daughters He has a system which is a series of numbers that he felt good about, so he wrote them down and still feels good about them, and will be using them today. Ian chooses box number 6 with Lisa.

Ian says that's an ok opening round, as he only took out one of his Power 5s. Noel says the banker has been good this week, and has been reaching into his piles The banker likes the set of pilgrims today and says they're beautiful and he gives a special Merry Christmas to Ian's daughters and they say Merry Christmas back. Ian says if he went on a date with the banker, he'd go to an all women line dancing club so the banker can look at the women who are over 60
