It's Double Trouble on Deal or No Deal

Relationships put to the test as couples take on The Banker in a week of Couples Specials

Coming To Channel 4 this February

It’s the start of a very special week in the Dream Factory as for the first time ever, couples will take the Walk of Wealth to play Deal Or No Deal together. But will they stay that way?

Noel takes on the role of host and mediator as he welcomes eleven couples to the wings, ready to do battle with the meanest man in telly –The Banker. With only five chances to play not everyone is guaranteed a place at the Pound Table, meaning some couples will be left wondering what could have been.

There might be two players, but that doesn’t mean The Banker is going to make life easy as he introduces the perilous ‘Banker’s Break Up’ quiz. Answer eight or more questions about each other correctly and the lucky pair will win a holiday. Get three or more questions wrong and He will quite literally split them up at his discretion, sending one person to the isolation room with no way of helping their partner make any further decisions in the game. However, with The Banker in charge, anything can happen and he is sure to do all he can to make the separation as agonising as possible.

Noel said ‘I’ve always found players’ differing approaches to Deal Or No Deal fascinating and I’m intrigued to see how two sets of opinions will play out during the game. These specials promise to be some of the most nail-biting and unpredictable games we have seen on Deal. Let’s hope our couples are still together when they leave the studio!’

With twice the players, twice the pressure and twice the chance to take home a potential £500,000, will our couples games’ prove to be twice as nice? Tune in to these brand new and unmissable shows to find out.
