Deal or No Deal - 24th-30th September

What is it with September and Deal or No Deal? The two just don’t mix. Even when it’s been torrid in past years, it’s never been this bad.

As you can see, nothing major of note this week: two trainwrecks (one of which is one of the most unavoidable of all time), and four rather non-descript deals. September has been a pretty poor month for the show this year, with only one Power 5 sum on the table (£100,000, in Stan’s game), and, beyond that, the big sums have not been in play long enough to allow the players to get decent offers to deal.

We can only hope for better things in October, in the run-up to Halloween week at the end of the month.
