Two more also unaired apparently.

Oh dear, Deal or No Deal in daytime is what killed the show on Channel 4 when it was milked to death - a prime time version would be so much better - they did commission 20 shows, so if it is a daytime version, this means it will only air for 4 weeks.
Sounds horrible, but on the audience ticket platform, it still says £250,000 is the top prize - so why the change if this is true?

Deal or No Deal in daytime is also how the show found success for many years although compared to something like The Chase, it did peak early.
£100,000 for a jackpot just feels like giving up before they begin. Even £250,000 wouldn’t go as far now as it would have at the time, so that would have been minimum expectation.
I’d rather they had increased the amount of players as a way of brining down potential payouts rather than bring down the prize money. Although of course the would bring extra costs too.

Personally, I think there's been enough daytime shows in primetime already (Pointless, Chase, Bridge of Lies, Weakest Link, Lingo, House of Games).

They almost certainly know nothing about the finer details of the show and are just working on the assumption it’s the same as before.

Deal worked because the prize was perfectly pitched to make the offers a genuine dilemma. Lower and it's easy to play on, higher like in the US and six figure offers become the norm and you might as well just take it.
The average pay out in the C4 days was around £16k so no surprise they want to lower that but I'd have looked to have kept the headline jackpot and have the amounts below it drop by greater amounts.
Also with Box 23 the jackpot was actually potentially £500k in the shows final years, so it has arguably dropped five fold.

A first-look at the new DOND set:

RE: The TV Gameshow Thread - DavidWhitfield - 05-07-2023
So £10,000 has gone from being the 'okay if it goes' fourth-smallest of the red amounts to being one of the 'power five' in the reworked format.
The gameboard design and the typeface used looks basic and pretty uninspiring.
Set looks alright. I like the retention of the east and west wings with the board in the middle.
Happy the gimmicks have gone; I never liked the over-complication of a once-simple format with stuff like the offer button and box 23.

New RHS vs old, via Super TV:
1k 1k
2k 3k
3k 5k
4K 10k
5k 15k
7.5k 20k
10k 35k
25k 50k
50k 75k
75k 100k
100k 250k
Agree it's resulted in the £10k-£20k safety net somewhat vanishing. And with inflation £100k today is equivalent to a £60k jackpot in 2005.
RE: The TV Gameshow Thread - Johnr - 05-07-2023
Yes, this is how I tried to describe the set yesterday in my write up if you can't be bothered reading the whole thing
"the Dream Factory is now a sort of mash up of the classic, Tron, The Chase and perhaps even Blockbusters"
The game board I couldn't quite work out if they're planning to perhaps add some sort of background to via the magic of post production or not
