Alice Mundy, 21, a student and trainee Stunt woman became the 2nd winner of Deal or No Deal's jackpot prize of £250,000. In a dramatic twist to her game after already dealing for £17,500, Alice was given the ultimate gamble of giving back the £17,500 to take a 50/50 chance on going home with either 1p or £250,000. |
|
The game 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 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. |
 |
 |
The twist 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 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 the game. 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.
The show 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 their 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 contestants and this creates a great atmosphere and makes the show really watchable. |

The game format 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.
Haj has box 15. Haj explained that he didn't do very well at school, and explains that he now runs his own complimentary therapy academy. We get to see a pic of Haj's nieces and he explains one of his young relatives has a disease which means he won't be able to walk in a few years' time.
