Maz's Deal or No Deal Game Report 31/12/10 - Scrooge or Santa Christmas Specials

Noel welcomes us to the final of the Christmas specials. He talks about the Christmas Day holiday, the destination of which hasn't been revealed yet! He also says today is show 1,500.

Maz has box 15. Maz is a student and a part-time barmaid, and she has an ambition to be a primary school teacher. Noel says she once read Three Little Pigs to some children, and one of them said she looks like one of the pigs! She says she was originally born in the USA, and would like to get in touch with her dad as she hasn't heard from him since she was 5. Maz has her mum in the audience today, and she has an angel ornament with her, as she is keen on guardian angels. We also get to see an old pic of Maz with her granddad. She gets very emotional as she speaks about him.

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.
