What was the first episode of DOND you watched? What did you think of it?
Here's my "experience"...
When I first heard, last October, about Noel Edmonds' comeback, I think I heard it on the radio, and when I heard "Deal or No Deal" being mentioned, I thought it was going to be an antiques programme, as in "Dealing with Dickinson" (David Dickinson) that was shown last summer on BBC 1.
How wrong could I have been? I vividly remember October 31st, too. I was planning to watch the first episode of Deal or No Deal, but then forgot all about it during that Monday as I had a disagreement about coursework at school (the teacher was in the wrong, of course), and I forgot all about DOND. Until I suddenly remembered at 4pm - "Noel Edmonds is on at 4:15pm!" - and from that moment, I was hooked.
When I watched the first episode, it only took me a few minutes to understand what was going on, but I admittedly did think, as I know others thought on this forum, how will this format last? But, then, the interaction between the banker, the contestant, Noel, other contestants and the audience formed.
I was diasppointed when I realised it wasgoing to only last for 66 episodes, but then C4 renewed its contract... twice... and it's with us until at least December 2007, as far as I know!
