Deal or No Deal is a British game show which was hosted by Noel Edmonds, based on the format which originated in the Netherlands that ran from 2005 to 2016. The show featured a single contestant trying to beat the Banker as they open 22 identical sealed red boxes assigned to potential contestants in an order of their choosing. 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. The gameplay is coordinated by Edmonds, who communicates with the unseen banker by telephone. Contestants can either 'deal' to take the money, or play to the end, settling on the amount in their box. In 2014, a new element was added to the game in the form of "box 23"; this added a new dimension to the gameplay, allowing the player to potentially reduce or add to their winnings. There was also the possibility of leaving with the same amount of money as already won or losing the entire amount won, thus leaving with nothing. "Box 23" remained a part of the show until the conclusion of the studio based run in 2016; it was not part of the concluding tour shows gameplay.
