Detrix's game today.

Noel says he's having an absolute ball so far with this year's Christmas specials, and he says they didn't start very well but we've had some sensational games in the last few shows.

Noel explains the Scrooge or Santa twist that takes place at the 5-box stage. There are 3 snowmen and 2 of them have a Santa and 1 has a Scrooge, find the Santa and the contestant gets an offer after every box in the final round, but find the Scrooge and the Banker gets to look inside the contestant's box and the final round continues in the usual 3 box style. There is also a Christmas tree where the contestant gets to the chance to win a holiday.

Detrix has box 4.

Detrix has a soft-toy owl with him which his mum gave him when he was very young, and he's always had it. He also has a bangle with him which his girlfriend gave him. Detrix has his girlfriend's sister in the audience today. We get to see a pic of his mum, and he says she's a massive inspiration to him. Noel picks up on the fact that Detrix would like to become a professional gambler.

Here we go...

Round 1

20 - Julie - £750

The banker talks about the pic of Detrix's mum and how half of it's missing, and he says he's found the other half of it. He shows it on the gameboard and it's a picture of Noel.

Banker's offer:

£12,500

Detrix says

NO DEAL

Round 2

13 - Lucie - £100

Noel says this is the best board at this stage that he can remember this year, and he gets Detrix to call a break...

We're back

Last box before the Banker

Noel says Detrix's block of reds is in contrast to yesterday's game.

22 - Jim - £250,000

Banker time

Given Noel's selective memory, I don't hold much hope that he can remember all the games this year.

The banker says that's what you get for empty threats, referring to how Detrix threatened the banker just before the break.

Banker's offer:

£9,000

Detrix says that's very respectable.

Detrix says

NO DEAL

Round 3

3 - Hannah - £3,000

2 - Marilyn - 10p

11 - Andy - £1,000

Banker time

Nice board both statistically and visually.

Detrix says

NO DEAL

Round 4

14 - Scott - £250

5 - Rina - £15,000

Detrix says that's OK.

Noel calls a break

If he can keep the block of 5 to 8-box, this is a really strong board.

We're back

Last box before the Banker

Noel talks about the Christmas tree of holidays, and he says we still don't know what Christmas Day's holiday destination was.

10 - newbie Matty - £20,000

Banker time

About £17k here I reckon.

The banker says Detrix has a healthy block of reds. Noel goes to the tree and reveals that today's holiday is a week for 2 in Ibiza, which Detrix could have the opportunity of winning. Detrix says Ibiza is a lovely place.

Banker's offer:

£15,000 + holiday is guaranteed

Noel says the banker really wants Detrix out of here.

Detrix says

NO DEAL
