Deal or No Deal

Does anyone know how far in advance this is recorded?

On today's programme, at the end of a week of summer specials, Callum won an extra prize of a holiday - two weeks in MEXICO. I would have said ' thanks, but no thanks'!!!

Why no thanks, he won �40K?

And he was so OTT, so embarrassing for his mother, what a prat!!!!

I think the original poster was concerned about the winning of the holiday at the time when Swine Flu broke out in Mexico.

trt - my post seems to have gone right over your head. I didn't mention the amount of money he won but as Malcyb 2000 rightly commented it was the fact that who would want to go to Mexico, the source of the outbreak of swine flu. That's why I was wondering how far in advance the programme took place. Must have been quite a while ago for Callum to be so excited about going there.

They film three episodes a day over several months and then have a break so episodes filmed in June would probably be on at christmas.

Stephen s game the Thursday before was filmed in March, so about four months in hand

Thanks for the info. I guess that would have been recorded before the outbreak of swine flu. Hope if Callum took the holiday fairly soon after winning, that he came back healthy.

When did Noel Edmonds get married (it was reported recently) as I wondered if that was why they were having a break for the honeymoon.
