If you find yourself trapped with someone who insists on watching the tv show “Deal or No Deal”, Digital Spy have come up with this drinking to help numb the pain….
Rule One – Drink a beer when there is any mention of a contestant “having a system”, which is going to see them triumph in the box-opening game of luck.
Rule Two – Drink a second beer when it turns out that a person’s “system” appears to revolve around blind faith and keeping their fingers crossed very, very tight.
Rule Three – Help yourself to the vodka whenever a contestant starts running around the studio to whip up the “positive energy” in the room.
Rule Four – Chug some alcopops whenever audience members (typically a pair of pensioners) are shown glancing nervously at each other. Chug a second if it just looks like they are confused and have wandered into the wrong studio when looking for Countdown.
Rule Five – Pour yourself a large glass of whiskey when Noel Edmonds says “it’s the best game we’ve had in a long while” for the 2,567th consecutive show.
Rule Six – Down a shot when there is any mention of “The Power Five”.
Rule Seven – Crack into some rum or brandy whenever Noel starts giggling/bantering/arguing with The Banker.
Rule Eight – If you suddenly realise that the show is essentially just a bunch of oddballs opening random boxes for 45 minutes, then quickly find the gin.
Rule Nine – Gather up some double spirits and mixers if a contestant claims that they have “just had a feeling all day” that their box would have £250,000 inside it.
Rule Ten – Finish off any remaining drinks when the contestant wrenches their head from out of their hands and claims through gritted teeth, “I’ve had a great day out Noel”, after discovering they’ve only won a tenner.
Obviously Please dont really do this….
