Deal Or No Deal Accident

[Wayne]

Did anyone see last night on Deal or no Deal when one of the boxes fell off? The box fell and it came open, and revealed a red number, £15,000 I think. Seeing as the show was on air, they had to take all the boxes and reshuffle them randomly.

Anyone else see it?

Did you know theres a part of the forum for tv programs :P

[Charlie]

lmao, sounds funny, i didn't see 'cause i don't watch.

[Jordan3]

I saw that =]

[Wayne]

Did you know theres a part of the forum for tv programs :P

Yeah I know, but I wanted to discuss what happened :P

[RedStratocas]

Haha, making a game thats all luck to begin with even easier.

[cocaine]

They had to swap all the numbers round I think.

Funny =]

[Billay]

bet that chick didnt get laid that night

[Magnet]

The show isn't actually live, why would they need to do that, I mean yeah they'd have to shuffle it but as it isn't live they wouldn't need to wait whilst they reshuffle.I know it isn't live as a women from my town is going on the show, and she went filming on 20th March and she still isn't on it, over a month later. Did they cut out the bit where they rearranged the numbers, and then go back again to them.

[Colourful™]

The show isn't actually live
The show is live. If it isn't then why do they do those phone in and email things to win money from home?

[Jordan3]

It's partly live. Cos noticed that Noel never says the winners name? Yeah he doesnt, they film 3 shows a day, then add the winner on.

[Desjardens]

On Deal or No Deal USA they had an old woman answer the phone. And Howie dropped the phone ;P and it broke

[Colourful™]

No it's ALL live, trust me.

1. They sometimes tell the contestants not to swear.
2. They sometimes say it's live television.
3. They do the live phone /email in to win money for mhome.

[Magnet]

</p></p>No, it isn't all live. None of it is, if it was live, Noel woudl say the winners name to the contest on each show at the end of the show. Plus, the women from ym town would be on it by now, don't you think? She is called Fran by the way, so look out for her. If it were live she'd be on March 20th of this year, but she wasn't. </p></p>And, how would you know they tell the contestants not to swear, hey? And how do you know they say it's live television. Yes the competition is but the know what show is gonna be on on what day so they randomloy pick someone, it's not as if it is an actual question.</p></p>Also, you know they say that the people are picked at random, if that is so, Lucy happened to be picked on her 50th game with a box underneath the desk saying Lucy, inside it was a Deal or no Deal box with the number 50 on. How would they know it would 'randomly' pick Lucy?

It's not live! They film 3 a day.

[Colourful™]

agnet...face it it's live. Ask around to people and they'll tell you the same hey? ;]

[Wayne]

Well, the woman who you know hasn't gone on yet because the people who want to play the game have to wait, and they chose one of the 22 boxes. After the show, another contestant who wants to play Deal or no Deal replaces the person who played, and the 22 people stay in a nearby hotel, until the next show, when all 22 appear in the Deal or no Deal studio.

Then why do they wear different clothes after "a new show" then? ;]

[Wayne]

Lol, they use the hotel as a home.

[Jordan3]

Then why do they wear different clothes after "a new show" then? ;]

Because they change?

You said Magnet to ask people. HOW ABOUT YOU ASK NOEL EDMUNDS. IN AN INTERVIEW HE CLEARLY STATED THEY FILM 3 SEMI LIVE SHOWS A DAY.

[ilovejordan]

Stop argueing </3

[GenerationK]

Bleh The show isnt live and i know that because on of my relitives was on it!! annnd on one of the shows i cant remeber which the contestants do a dance to the theme tune and noel said the bit we dont bradcast and i think they do about 6 shows a day

[Colourful™]

Hmmph -believes- (of course)...

[GenerationK]

Why dont you believe it?

[Wayne]

Okay, I'm going to stop arguing. I believe it is live, but others believe what you want. :)

[Magnet]

No I mean by saying she went to the studio on 20th March, she went in to recording. The show is obviously not filmed live, it's not that type of show.

[Jordan3]

It's like Millionaire. It's semi-live.

[RedStratocas]

I doubt its live. What would be the point of that?

[Colourful™]

It is live, Millionare isn't. ;)

[RedStratocas]

They would advertize it as being live if it was live.

[Colourful™]

But:

1. They wear different clothes, and they would wear the same if it was continuous recording.
2. They have to fit into the time gap (hurry sometimes).
3. They have the live phone in to win the big money thingy where they open the boxes at the end of the show.
Do I really need to go on?

[Wayne]

Okay, the majority of threads say it is live, so can a moderator please close the thread, or someone on trial, do a good deed and close it please. <3

[Smiddy]

It isn't live.

They do the actual show recorded about 2 weeks before, If they did it live, it would take way longer than 45 minutes.
They manage to get the phone calls going because they have a thing called staff who look over the computers that decide who wins. They choose it straight after the calls have closed.

Then whenever the box is shown, they manage to alter the show by adding that little banner.

[Colourful™]

I'm laughing.

[Wayne]

Please. :)

[Colourful™]

No deal.

[Wayne]

No deal.

Lmao! That cracked me up a bit.

[Smiddy]

I'm laughing.Any reason why?

They wouldn't be able to ask the people participating to risk there jobs for what, say 50 days? [in the case of that 1 contestant]

[Colourful™]

I think we'll have to take a break.

[RedStratocas]

But:

1. They wear different clothes, and they would wear the same if it was continuous recording.
2. They have to fit into the time gap (hurry sometimes).
3. They have the live phone in to win the big money thingy where they open the boxes at the end of the show.
Do I really need to go on?

1- Who says its one continuous recording? Maybe they work for a certain amount of time and if they arent done, they finish it a different day?
2- Explained above. They dont just keep going until theyre done.
3- Thats a different part of the show, probably live then but the whole thing isnt.

The majority of the U.S. says Bush is a bad president, why is he still in office?

[Tomm]

Lol owned. I aint really sure if its live or not..

[GJay]

Yes I saw it - nothing to write home about though.

And to the comment above, only Saturday is a live show.

[Adam$]

When things go wrong on Live TV it's so fun. ;D

[Rawr]

I saw it and it opened even though the boxes are ment to be sealed. Very fishy...:p

[GJay]

The seal may have come undone as it fell over?

[paradox]

Does it really matter if its live or recorded? ;P

[iluvben]

It isn't live.

That sounds about right Smidds because they never say the persons name just the box on the screen :p

[paradox]

I read that at the EXACT time that someone called Francessa was picked to play Deal or No Deal just now.. How creepy. Is that her?

[Colourful™]

If it wasn't live then why did they show the box breaking open? Surely they would of cut that out, it's emberassing for them ;)

[alexxxxx]

So what if it is/isn't. It's crap lol. :D

[Colourful™]

If that's all you're gonna post then leave.

[Condas]

moderator please close the thread, do a good deed and close it please. <3

you are a mod so close it you're self btw.

[paradox]

you are a mod so close it you're self btw.
Hes not a moderator of this particular forum so he cant.

[Smiddy]

If it wasn't live then why did they show the box breaking open? Surely they would of cut that out, it's emberassing for them ;)Not really no :s They may of wanted to do it to proove there really isn't any rigging in it. If you cut from 1 shot with say for example "Bob" having box 3, then 2 seconds later, it's now Box 17, something's up then.

Also, i doubt they'd waste time doing another show to replace the one where they messed up in.

[RedStratocas]

Possibly to get more viewers. Look, we've been talking about it for pages, and Im sure other people talked about it, so its a way to attract people to watch. If something wrong can happen on television, people want to see.

[Colourful™]

They would do it if it wasn't live though. :l

[RedStratocas]

They would do it if it wasn't live though. :l

What? Thats what I said.

[Ezzie.]

hmm weird could've been a stunt?

[Colourful™]

Nope not a stunt. ;)

[Kardan]

Lol, are people still arguing about if it's live or not?

(It's not live btw)

[Colourful™]

Lol...I won't bother anymore.

[Ezzie.]

IT'S LIVE I TELL YOU LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE *evil cackle leading onto passing out*
I couldn't be bothered to read the previous pages *6 pages, gulp* so i put an opinion to the first pot :p

[paradox]

Must feel weird saying IT'S THE FIRST OF MAY, MAYDAY!!
when it isn't ;l

[Colourful™]

It is the 1st of May.

Happy? (Scroll to UK)

[Michael.]

Right. You may all shut up as I am the resident Deal or No Deal expert.

The show is NOT recorded live, I know this as one of my mates sat in the audience. They record 3 shows a day, Morning, Afternoon and Evening I'm told. Most shows take over an hour to record, due to little things, such as micing up the contestants. The name is overlayed onto the broadcast by Channel 4.

Right. Let's go back to Boxgate. They left that bit in to show that the show is crystal clear, otherwise audience members would be saying "Eeeh. Deal or No Deal is a right fraud, let's go tell the Sunday papers!"

[Colourful™]

I have, it's live.

[alexxxxx]

The contestants stay in a hotel paid for by Endemol UK and film three shows a day for five days of the week, for two weeks consecutively, then they have a week off and resume in the fourth week.

You sure you read it all?

[Magnet]

You sure you read it all?
Haha, iAlex has been pwned by Saiteko (And everyone else saying it's not live)

[Colourful™]

I can't see where it says that.
