The return of 'Deal or No Deal'
 

I love it.

Wednesday's show was nerve-wracking. The banker won and the contestant was the first to end with 1p.

It has been announced that this new DOND will only run for 20 shows. What a shame!

Last show in this series today (Fri).

Stephen Mulhern did a good job after inheriting Noel Edmunds job.

Surprisingly, two contestants had gone through all 20 shows without being picked, and also, there were two new contestants when there should only have been, so one of the regulars had disappeared without explanation. Strange.

The show finished with a lot more questions than answers. One of those obvious questions is will the show be returning?

I enjoyed it when Noel Edmunds presented. I always wondered if they pay the expenses/wages of people waiting to take a turn who took time off?

I was wondering where they get all the money from to spend on programs like these too?

Re: The return of 'Deal or No Deal'
 

I suppose they must make money from advertising during the breaks. So programs must attract viewers! The top prize on the show now is only £100,000 reduced by £150,000
