£250,000
22 identical sealed boxes
And just one question...
Deal or no deal?
Don't open box number 22 it's cursed like the newbie, it'll ruin you
Don't be distracted by Noel's shirts, they're louder than the audience
Take out the 1p pretty swift, spank the banker and he'll be miffed
Get the quarter million only won by women, and you'll be a lucky man
You have a system it's failing fast, you know you should've saved that box 'til last
Don't ask the west wing what to do, they'll tell you to go on and you'll end up with a blue
The power-five has gone but you gotta be strong and don't blame Noel for egging you on
Twenty grand's the limit, there's a chance to win it and you'll keep your dignity

All words & music by Bri Jnr.
Bri tells us:
Way before the hoo-hah of Brexit, the only 'Deal Or No Deal' that mattered was Noel Edmonds pre-teatime Channel 4 nailbiter of a game show. The other Channel 4 classic game show ''Countdown' only got a passing mention in one of our earlier ditties 'Park 'N' Ride' but Noel's show was deemed worthy by I, Bri of basing an entire song around. Including a faithful recreation of the tubthumping theme tune.
It doesn't outstay it's welcome like the show eventually did and the lyrics are an educational time capsule for the Netflix generation who may be curious to know what the fuss was about. The banker, £250,000...it may not be Mr Blobby's crinkly bottom but it is most certainly a recipe for Noel's finest house party. What a magnificent tribute I created!
Tico Jnr., drunk, says:
I feel we may be pushing the limit on what is acceptable to 'steal', so I attribute the entire number to Bri. Although my delicious singing intro is good. This is an example of why I get annoyed at Bri's refusal to use any kind of effect on his guitar. If I was brainy enough to come up with this operatic dance, I'd have included gain, echo, delay, phaser, distortion, wah and wah again.
