I'm guessing that the conclusion will be "no". You can come back and tell us what it said.

I've got a very exciting idea for a new gameshow, based on Deal Or No Deal but with elements of The Crystal Maze. You'd still have 22 contestants (or however many it is) but instead of standing around with boxes and trotting out sob stories, they would instead be tied up, gagged and sealed inside tea chests (with random amounts of money), which would then be thrown into the sea. Then some other contestant (possibly taken from the original group, I've not really thought this through) would have to dive into the sea and try to break into as many of the tea chests as possible. They could then just steal the money inside and leave the person still incapacitated, or make a strategic alliance with the person by freeing them to help break into more chests and split the money, or something. But some of the contestants are infected with the Ebola virus! But nobody knows who!

Actually that's probably not a very good idea at all really. Forget I mentioned it.

You have all obviously seen today's DOND (which was almost identical to the Alan Carr charity one) and were itching to discuss it.
Player "dealt" at £26,000.
Player had £250,000 in their box.
Player had +£10,000 in Box23.
Talk about deja vu!.

No, I think it would work actually.
