When Mark took the Walk of Wealth during Deal or No Deal Panto week, he couldn’t have dreamt of the effect it would have on his life.
Mark had brought a photo of his late mother in New York. He wanted to fly out there to find the exact spot. Mark played a brave game, dealing at £35,000. Watch his exclusive interview here.
As part of the deal, The Banker promised to tell Mark where the photo of his mother was taken. As promised at the end of the game, the address was brought out but Mark wasn’t expecting a holiday to New York as part of the deal.
Mark has since been in touch, to tell us that he managed to find the same spot and sent us the photo to prove it! Mark’s good news didn’t stop there. He also wanted to share the arrival of baby George, weighing in at an eye watering 9lbs 7.
A big congratulations to Mark on his £35,000 win and touching story once again.

A hat trick of mega-money wins has left The Banker’s wallet feeling lighter in 2012.
Estate agent, James left with £65k in possibly one of the luckiest games of Deal or No Deal ever. You can read about the show here and watch his interview here.
That win must have sparked something in the Dream Factory because soon after Paul left with a massive £70k. The Banker had the last laugh however. Paul could’ve been our first Male Quarter Millionaire. You can read Paul’s touching story here and watch his Interview here.
Belinda stepped up a gear winning the most of the three. Confirming bad things do happen in threes (well if you’re The Banker anyway) read about her massive win here.
We have had 18 red wins and just 2 blue wins up until 23rd January totalling a whopping £387k! It’s a bad time to be The Banker and it could get a whole lot worse.

Happy New Year to you from Deal or No Deal.

Noel, The Banker and the rest of the Dream Factory will be getting in the Valentine spirit for a special ‘Love Week’ in February and there will of course be some unique celebrations for The Banker’s Birthday in May. Followed by the rest of the specials you have come to know and love.
Will 2012 be the year we see Deal or No Deal’s first male Quarter of a Millionaire? Or will the dastardly Banker be adding even more members to his infamous 1p club?

The world of pantomime and fairytales descends on the Dream Factory this December as Noel the Genie oversees proceedings in the hope of granting some Christmas wishes on Deal or No Deal: Deal Panto from Monday 19th December on Channel 4.
This year the Dream Factory becomes a magical, festive world as the contestants transform into some of the most memorable pantomime characters ever. And no Panto is complete without a dastardly villain, who of course will be played by none other than the evil Banker (boo, hiss)!
As always there will be a twist to the game and this Christmas contestants in live play at five box will have the opportunity to rub the Genie’s lamp and choose a wish which could see them continue one box at a time or even walk away with a holiday. However, the wrong choice could let The Banker have a look inside their box or even worse they could end up leaving with a pair of his underpants!
It has been an exciting year for Deal or No Deal, going live for the first time ever, plus two new quarter-millionaires have been crowned. Will The Banker be getting into the Christmas spirit or will he turn Scrooge and add even more members to his infamous 1p club?

Viewers are in for a treat this October as darkness descends once again at the Dream Factory. Mad scientist Noel invites you to join his freakish creations for a week of Deal or No Deal Halloween specials starting Sunday 30th October on Channel 4.
It’s a joyous time of year for The Banker as he gets to inflict even more pain and suffering on the contestants. In a twist to the game, Dr Pettigrew’s fantastic brain firing catapult could give contestants in live play at five box the chance to win a holiday and even the opportunity to complete the game one box at a time. However, if contestants fail the scheming Banker may get to look inside their box.
With truly incredible costumes and surprises lurking around every corner, you never know what is going to happen.
Will this Halloween see the crowning of our next quarter-millionaire or will the penny-pinching Banker be adding even more members to his infamous 1p club?
Watch the teaser trailer here >>>

It began like any other Deal or No Deal Live but it turned out to be anything but! In a special twist, Noel surprised Steph who was sat in the Pilgrims to play the game. Her family and friends were all in on it, they walked on to open a box. Steph’s Mum was at her home with her children watching on. A visibly stunned Steph picked box 17 at random and took the Walk of Wealth.
Unlike Steph her start was far from shaky, 1p was found in the first box with 50p and £250 also found in a fantastic opening round. The Banker wished Noel had plucked a different Pilgrim when he was forced to offer £11.5K! Steph’s luck took a dramatic turn for the worse when £250K and £75K were hit. Her offer crashed to £3K. Everyone in the Dream Factory was stunned when £35K and £100K were also wiped from the board.
The Banker wanted the game to end in tears so he offered ‘a box of tissues!’ Harry delivered a ‘tax free’ £20K which left £5K as the highest amount at five box. Steph was offered £900 but if she declined, The Banker would allow her to go on one box at a time. Steph continued and left herself with £3K and £5K at the climax. In a frantic last minute, Steph chose to swap her box 17 for box 20. Noel flipped the lid to see £5K and bring our fantastic run of LIVE shows to an end with a standing ovation.

Ann had the right to remain stunned when Noel walked into Cockett police station! She was whisked into the Dream Factory carrying box 15 down the Walk of Wealth. Ann’s work colleagues were watching on from the cells.
The Banker must have feared the worse when the Welsh woman hit four blues but £250K ruined the opening round. Ann’s collar number was also the first offer, £4,234 – NO DEAL. Vera had the 1p, whilst ‘tax free’ Harry had 10p, leaving nine reds and two blues on the board. The Banker offered £15K – NO DEAL.
£100 was wiped off the board, just one blue remained. That meant an offer of £22K but Ann carried on – NO DEAL. £1K, £35K and £50K took Ann to ‘five box’. It didn’t take her long to bail out with £24K. Everyone hoped she hadn’t Cockett up but £100K wasn’t enough to prevent an offer of £30K. Noel flipped Ann’s box 15 to see £75K but Ann goes back over the bridge with a massive £24K!
