You're the controller of Channel 4, or, if you like, you are Noel Edmonds. You have four weeks to fill of classic episodes of Deal or No Deal, and you get to choose the episodes. Five episodes a week is twenty episodes, and you've got the entire history of the show to choose from, hour-long specials included. Which episodes would you pick?

Here's my selection to start the ball rolling:

Jim R (Mar 06)
Gaz (May 06)
Morris (May 06)
Peter (Jun 06)
Lance (Aug 06)

David J (Oct 06)
Wrighty (Dec 06)
Laura (Jan 07)
Sarah (Jan 07)
Bunney (Jan 07)

PJ (May 07)
Daniel (Aug 07)
Maria (Sep 07)
Ron (Oct 07)
Chris B (Oct 07)

Clive (Jan 08)
Betty (May 08)
Keran (Nov 08)
Mary (Jan 09)
Alice (Mar 09)

That was quite hard actually...I've not seen enough episodes of the show after 2007 to include more recent ones, but tried to get a good mixture all the same. Peter is simply included as none of the episodes between Gaz and Giorgio have been repeated since they were shown three years ago, that one would finally fill the gap! They don't have to be in date order by the way, I just did that cus it was easier Know I've forgot some...

Your turn!

This is actually really hard, but I'll give it a go:

£75k Kirsty
£100k Gaz
Morris
Lance
Laura (Jan 07)
Bunney
Jon G
100k Maria
Chris B (Halloween)
Orry
£100k Betty
Tom P
Derek Brown/Nikki Tucker
Keran
Ellen (Dec 08)
Lauren
Mary
Alice
Lisa (show 1000)
Calum

Not neccessarily in that order but there you go..

Oooh, I'll take part in this:

Lynn (Oct 05) Gotta have the one that started it all
£120k Jennifer (Nov 05)
£57k Brenda (Jan 06)
£35k Matt (Mar 06)
£100k Gaz (May 06)

£87k Lance (Aug 06)
David J (Oct 06)
Claudine (Dec 06) The one time I wasn't disappointed about the biggie on the table
Laura (Jan 07)
Bunney (Jan 07) Such a funny character

Graeme (May 07)
Rodney (June 07)
Jon G (Aug 07)
Maria (Sept 07)
Chris B (Oct 07)

Betty (May 08)
Keran (Nov 08) The greatest turnaround, ever
Lauren (Dec 08)
Mary (Jan 09) Just so funny, glad it payed off as well
Alice (Mar 09)

Lemme think. I never got properly into the show until around May 2008, during the whole "nobody will win over £20,000" era. I've seen the odd game before that, but not many. I'll try and make a list based on what I've seen but there are going to be some games you wouldn't exactly say were classic.

Saj - March 2006
Laura - January 2007
Maria - September 2007
Orry - December 2007
Clive - January 2008

Betty - May 2008
Don - June 2008
Constance - November 2008
Keran - November 2008
Stan - December 2008

Lauren - December 2008
Billy - December 2008
Carrie - December 2008
Mary - January 2009
Ade - January 2009

Doreen - February 2009
Alice - March 2009
Lisa - April 2009
Amy - June 2009
Calum - July 2009

I'm going to break from the mould and choose shows which aren't predominantly big wins! When looking at the list of shows, these are personally the most memorable for me and would be in my "hall of fame"...

Lynn (Oct 05)
1p Nick (Jan 06)
Brenda (Feb 06)
Sarah (Mar 06)
£100k Gaz (May 06)
Pat M (May 06)
Lance (Aug 06)

Doug (Mar 07)
Chris B (Oct 07)

Eunice (Apr 08)

Alice (Mar 09)
Calum (Jul 09)

What I'd try and do is spilt the 4 weeks into each of the 4 season we had so far, and try to pick a variety of themes, and also plump for shows not been repeated (and also ones that I don't actually have recorded and want!!), so:

Season 1:

Julie (selling the 1p for £33k - never seen it but sounds amazing!)
Jim R
Fadil
Morris
Melanie

Season 2:

Jeff (break-a-leg)
Stuart Ventress
Doug
Kerry (power cut)
Adam (1p)

Season 3:

Daniel (£75k)
Ed
Peter (Basil Fawlty)
Derek Brown
Deano (June 08)

Season 4:

H2005
Stephen
Dirk (3 together in just over a week there!)
Mel (£50k)
Liam (£60k)

Well I like being different.

Good to see me and my old mate Dirk together in someone's list.
