You'd be pretty pissed off to pick the wrong colour after all that!

Saw the last 30sec (thank god) and that bloke look genuinely shocked!

"Is this real?"
What, the fact you'll be ill prepared to absorb that amount of money and you'll suddenly get lots of new "friends" and begging letters, family fall outs, drug addiction, lose your licence for speeding in your Porsche, girlfriend of 5 years leaves you because you shagged a few money grabbers?

Yes, it's real. hehe

No. It depends what you're doing but if you're not doing american roulette with the 0 & 00. It's 18/37 paying evens.

Sorted that for you hehe
It's a Cowell creation fronted by And and Dec.

ITV are going to flog this to death, and then beyond.

It's the crowd that makes it so cringe worthy. Why are you shouting out 'red' or 'black' as if there is a correct answer. It doesn't make any difference which one you pick! It's bloody random. It's like the muppets on deal or no deal but worse.

As with Deal or No Deal, I'd love to sit everyone down at the start and explain to them, painfully slowly, that we could just pull a name from a hat and give that person 1 million and it would be the same result.

I'd do this in a room, with me holding some form of automatic rifle, and nobody would be allowed to leave until they both understood the concept of random, and explained it back to me.

Then I'd take SC hostage and force him to change the show so that we did just this, he'd be allowed one ad break, but the whole show would last perhaps 7 minutes.

Sorry, on a par with 'Don't Scare the Hare' or whatever it was called.

Utter,utter ste of the highest order and why do these programmes last soooo long?

Sadly will run and run as Cowell's X factor is a banker for ITV and they have to keep him happy somehow.

Appalling - Cowell needs to stick with ripping off TV Talent shows.

Errmm. DOND isn't a game of total chance. It's about Chance and having Balls

Seems a hell of a lot of dicking about for it all to just come down to a 50/50 chance on a poxy roulette wheel............ they could have wound the whole thing up a lot earlier and saved us all the pain.

........ and if he'd lost out after all that, well, that would have just been cruel really frown

God this is poor tv

Why are they crying, it isn't as if they have lost anything. Do they cry when their lottery numbers don't come up?

Errmmm. Deal or No Deal is exactly a game of chance as there is certainly no skill involved.
