That'll be the way to kill it!


Celebrity editions - I hope not, but I think it's inevitable!

Bigger prize money - actually the prize money is pitched at the right level for the show and raising it to £1m would go against it, as for example the first offers would be life changing amounts of money in the tens of thousands!

More twists from the banker - I think so, though what I don't know!

On holiday in Florida recently and managed to the the US version of DOND, glamorous women holding the briefcases instead of boxes and phonecalls from the banker after opening one box at a time near the end, oh and the American hysteria to boot!

Just tuned in to the More4 repeat in the hope of catching the montage again, but it appears they've gone back to episode 1.


First thing you notice - the phone ring is different!

I don't think Celeb editions will happen. I don't think Noel, being the person he is, would like celebrities. Unless of course, he chooses them and its his old DJ mates. Laughing

If this were ITV, chances are they'd be taking this Summer break to alter the format and ruin it. Although it would be nice for some small changes, I hope this isn't the case with Endemol/C4.

They'd probably stick it on late at nights, set it in a brothel and change its name to "Feel or No Feel"..... Laughing

Doubt it. Even if they wanted to do Celebrity editions (which I think Noel is dead against, and I actually have faith in Channel 4 wanting to keep the format as it is), all the celebrities would need to available for perhaps a few weeks until they were each picked for the game. Now I suppose this would depend on how high profile the celebrities playing were, but it would strike me if DOND were to do this they'd aim for stars people actually know.

If there were any big changes, I'd imagine they'd have been leaked by now seeing as October's editions are already in the can.

Well if Mr & Mrs is coming back, and they need a show section for the proposal, they could call it Kneel or No Kneel.

A news report comes on of Saddam Hussain on hunger strike - Meal or no Meal.

A programme about how a famous old church's bells are to be silenced due to protests from local Daily Mail readers: Peal or no Peal.

A travel programme about where to go in France: Lille or No Lille.

Top Gear goes stunt driving: Wheel or No Wheel.

they could add the amount of smaller-value boxes, and put some more higher-amount values in (like �1, 000, 000.).
