How Deal or No Deal Works

Deal or No Deal starts with 22 numbered boxes each with an unknown value of between 1p and £250,000 contained in them, these are then randomly chosen by the 22 contestants. A contestant is then chosen to play Deal or No Deal and sit in the hot seat for that game with their chosen box. They then play a series of 'rounds' where they chose to eliminate the remaining boxes one by one - hopefully avoiding the boxes containing the big money.

Deal or No Deal - Noel talks to the banker

The twist to Deal or No Deal comes in at the end of each round when the 'Banker' - a mysterious off-screen person offers the contestant a sum of money to 'buy' the box that the contestant has in front off of them and end the game. This sum of money is based on the amount of cash left in the remaining boxes.

In the first round of Deal or No Deal the contestant has to open five boxes before the Banker makes his first offer. In following rounds the player only has to open three boxes before the banker makes his offer. According to the banker he bases his offers on a number of factors including what cash values remain and also how 'he' views the attitude and way the contestant is playing their game of Deal or No Deal. You normally find the first round offers are below an 'average' value of the boxes remaining which encourages the player to carry on into further rounds and add to drama. Although occasionally a tempting offer is made which does make the contestant stop to think for a while.

Deal or No Deal is really a game of pure chance as no-one knows what each box contains, and all the contestants have the same chance of winning the jackpot as there are no questions to answer or games of skill to perform to win the prize. This provides a great arena for the player to interact with the host and their fellow Deal or No Deal contestants and this creates a great atmosphere and makes the show really watchable.

The game format of Deal or No Deal relies quite a lot on the host to build up the drama and add to the atmosphere and this is where Noel helps make the show with his interaction with the contestants and the chats with the Banker, although we only ever hear Noels side of the conversation. Noel is building up quite a collection of potential catchphrases during the show, and has most of them based around the ad breaks where he plays on the word break in his sentences.

Playing Deal or No Deal although simple in concept, can also involve complex gameplay and often contestants try out various strategies or systems to try and beat the Banker, much the same as people try at a casino.

Latest Deal or No Deal Game Report

Sarah Millican's Deal or No Deal Game Report 29/04/12 - Celebrity Specials

Today's celebrity player is SARAH MILLICAN.

We get to see a video clip of Sarah Millican and she talks about being on DoND. She says she's a massive fan of the show and loves how it can get very tense so quickly.

Noel says we'll find out about Sarah's charity later on. We get introduced to the people on the wings, who are Sarah's family and friends, including DoND's very own warm-up guy Mark Olver.

Sarah chooses a ball at random and it's number 7. This is the box she gets given.

Round 1
Sarah says box 7 feels good.
6 - Karen - £15,000
20 - Aemen - £5
Sarah points out that she has a letterbox on her board.
16 - Sarah J - £1,000
21 - Victoria - £500
Sarah talks about what the box openers are wearing, and Noel points out Simon's shirt. Sarah says Noel's influencing things, and Noel says he'll shut up.
8 - Elaine - £1

Banker time
The banker says he longs after Sarah, and she says he's been flirting with her on Twitter! He says this is like a love film, and we see some photoshopped photos of Sarah in romantic situations with the banker's phone. The banker gets Noel to go down on one knee and he proposes to Sarah, and she says "no deal"!

Banker's offer:
£12,000

Sarah says
NO DEAL

Round 2
Sarah says she's raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support, as cancer affects so many people directly or indirectly. Comedian Joe Lycett next, and he says Sarah once did a wee in the passenger seat of his car!
3 - Joe - £3,000
Joe says hello to his granddad as he opens his box, and the banker rings up and says that was rude, as box-openers during the celebrity shows normally say how nice it is to meet Noel!
13 - Denise - £750
22 - Susan - £50,000

Banker time
The banker says he's going to try and appeal to the inner Sarah.

Banker's offer:
£15,000 + lifetime supply of banoffee pie

Sarah says that pie is her favourite dessert! She wonders whether she could give the pies to charity, and the banker rings and says they're a bit dodgy as they're home-made, and they're all for Sarah.

Sarah says
NO DEAL

Round 3
14 - John - £10
1 - Simon - £75,000
11 - Elizabeth - £35,000

Banker time

Banker's offer:
£10,000

Sarah asks about the banoffee pie, and the banker rings and says that's off the menu, but something else is on the menu!

Banker's offer:
£10,000 + one creme horn

Sarah says
NO DEAL

Round 4
10 - Victoria - £10,000
15 - Jonathan - £100
17 - Juliet - £20,000

Banker time
Noel says the game's swung to the banker now. He says this is a genuine attempt by the banker to get a deal.

Banker's offer:
£11,000

The others tell Sarah that she's always a positive thinker, and Sarah says the problem is that it's not her money. She asks the audience, and only a few people think she should deal. John says she may have to go to the end if she goes on now, and the banker rings and says if she goes on, the odds of hitting the £250k are 37.5%.

Sarah says
NO DEAL

Round 5
Noel says this game is so finely balanced now. Sarah says she feels a bit sick now!
5 - Andy - £50
12 - Lou - 10p
Sarah chooses box 9, and the banker rings and says this box could change lives, and Sarah tells him to have a heart. He says he's had a feeling all game that box 9 has the £250,000. Sarah says she's sticking with box 9, and the banker rings and says on her head be it!
9 - Gary - £250,000

Banker time
The banker laughs wildly down the phone and the audience BOOs. He tells Sarah to listen to him now.

Banker's offer:
£5,500

Sarah says £20,000 would be a more meaty sum for charity. The banker rings and says if Sarah declines £5,500, she can open 2 boxes before the next offer. If the £100k isn't discovered, the offer will be £20,000. Mark Olver says what the banker's promising is really good. The banker rings back and says there's a new offer now.

Banker's offer:
£9,000

The banker confirms his other promise still holds true. Sarah asks the audience, and a lady in the audience says she has terminal cancer and tells Sarah to go on. Noel speaks to the lady and she says that Sarah just playing today will have a massive impact for the charity in terms of the publicity raised for it. Noel then speaks to another lady in the audience who has terminal cancer.

Sarah says
NO DEAL

Round 6
2 - Sally-Anne - £5,000
19 - Steve - 1p

Banker time, as Sarah didn't find the £100k

Banker's offer:
£20,000

Sarah talks about the sums of money, and then she lifts the phone and is surprised to hear the banker is already there! John says he'd take the money, and Sarah says it'd be mortifying if she went all the way and didn't get £100k. Noel asks the ladies in the audience what they think, and they say it's hard because £20k goes a long way.

Sarah says
DEAL

Round 6 - proveout - final box
18 - Mark Olver - 50p

Banker time with £250 and £100,000 remaining

Banker's offer would've been:
£36,000

Noel opens Sarah's box 7 and reveals £100,000

Box 4 with Meg contains the £250

Sarah says she thinks she made the right decision, and £20k will make a big difference.
