Today's celebrity player is JIMMY CARR.

Noel welcomes us to the first ever celebrity special of Deal or No Deal, and there are some special titles which feature a giant phone attacking Noel.

Noel talks about the varying games that the show brings, and he wonders how celebrities will play the games because they'll be playing for charity.

We get to see a video which features Jimmy Carr talking about being on the show.

Love the show's intro.

As these are celebrity specials my "OH DEAR... OH DEAR... OH DEAR..." still applies.

The last time the show was on at 8pm for those who don't know was when it was Double Deal Week.

Jimmy says he can't believe his luck and thinks it's really weird! Noel says anyone can stand up and make people laugh, but DoND is a very complex game!

Jimmy says today's box-openers are comedians from Britain's comedy circuit, and Noel says it should be the funniest show ever.

The goldfish-bowl of balls are brought out for Jimmy to choose a box, and he randomly chooses BOX 22.

Here we go...

The funniest show ever... a claim that has a lot to live up to.

I see they have different card things in the boxes. Put some curves on the edges.

Round 1

Jimmy says he's thrilled to be playing with the death box. He chooses Adam first, and he talks about his worst ever comedy gig!

2 - Adam - £10

5 - Jojo - £100,000

Jimmy asks Mick what he thinks about his box, and he says he only agreed to be on the show as he thought Alan Carr was playing.

17 - Mick - £5

8 - Tom - £1,000

9 - Alistair - £5,000

Who else spotted the new money designs in the boxes?

Banker time

I make that the third redesign of the interior box labels.

The banker screams down the phone and speaks to Jimmy. Jimmy asks the banker whether he wants to steal all the money and they can split it between them. The banker says if Jimmy says DEAL now, he'll get a free holiday to the Seychelles!

Banker's offer:

HOLIDAY BRIBE

Jimmy says he can't go on holiday as he has shows to do - proper comedy shows, not daytime shows. Jimmy says if the banker works for him, he'll put him on-screen! The banker rings back and also offers a diamond bracelet to Jimmy's girlfriend!

Banker's offer:

BLING BRIBE

I'm sure none of these "bribes" will work.

OK - time to throw all expectations of usual gameplay out the window then.

Jimmy says his girlfriend would sleep with the banker to get that, as the ring is worth £10,000. The banker rings back and says deal! He then rings again and says the ring will be engraved so it can only be sold to Piers Morgan.

Jimmy says

NO DEAL

Noel calls a break...

Was it just me, or did the £250,000 just disappear from the on screen graphics?

I've got a feeling he won't win the QM somehow.

We know the drill. The first offer can't be taken. Why not turn it into a comic skit? Makes sense with this game.

Hopefully cash will be offered next.

Ummm... what the hell just happened to the board? There were more than 5 amounts missing there. £250k was gone.

EDITING FAIL!

We're back

Round 2

3 - Nick - £15,000

Jimmy asks Suzi what she thinks, and Noel recognises she's nervous, but says she can't ruin the game as Jimmy's doing that! He considers going with Suzi but then wonders about going for Stephen, who says he's a bit colour-blind and all the boxes are blue to him.

14 - Suzi - £3,000

13 - Stephen - £250,000

Banker time

So far it's shown a couple of different camera positions that we don't normally see.

BANG... £250,000 gone. He probably wouldn't have won it anyhow.

Jimmy talks about the charity he's playing for, which is Helen and Douglas House. He says it's a hospice that helps sick and dying children, and he talks about the work they do.

Banker's offer:

£1,000
