Went down to Bristol yesterday for an interview to be a contestant on the Gameshow 'Deal or No Deal'.
Already some achievement to be one of the 100 or so selected from the 160,000 applications received.
Hosted by Noel Edmonds and ably assisted by the never seen and mysterious Banker the game is a simple game of chance and nerve. it features a single contestant trying to beat the Banker, as they open twenty-two identical sealed red boxes.
The boxes contain randomly assigned sums of money inside ranging from 1p to £250,000. The day's contestant is selected at the beginning, bringing their box to the chair. As the boxes are opened over a number of rounds, the Banker makes offers of real money to gain possession of their box.
On 12 July 2012, the show announced at the end of the episode that it had now given away more than £30,000,000 of prize money, more than any other daytime show in the history of British television.
Felt as though the day went well and just have to wait now and see if i'm selected??
