ITV Deal Or No Deal viewers 'switch off' as they share same complaint about show
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info ITV's broadcast of a Deal Or No Deal celebrity special went down like a lead balloon among viewers who all complained about one particular aspect of the show. Monday's episode was a repeat of the December 8, 2024 special, which featured I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! winner Sam Thompson attempting the beat the banker. Stephen Mulhern returned as the host to help Sam, also known for his exploits on Made In Chelsea, win money for his chosen charity as he was reunited with some of his close friends, including TOWIE's Pete Wicks, and his former jungle mates such as actors Danielle Harold and Nick Pickard. However, viewers were left less than impressed, with complaints flooding in about one particular aspect that detracted from their enjoyment. Disgruntled viewers took to social media to vent, labelling the show "unwatchable". Criticism was aimed at ITV for allocating screen time to those deemed "Z-List celebrities". (Image: ITV) One viewer commented: "You clearly have a very different definition of 'TV legend' than the rest of us. Unless it means the most annoying nothing on TV." A second viewer flew into a rage, saying: "#DealorNoDeal is on and it's f*****g horrendous at best of times, but f*****g unwatchable with all the Z Lister so called celebrities." A third questioned the show's casting choices, adding: "There may be an obvious answer but how can Deal or No Deal have a celebrity special without having any celebrities in it." A fourth quipped about a potential silver lining in the episode, saying: "The only famous one there Paul who has a hilarious TikTok sketches and he just opens a box at the very end #dealornodeal." (Image: ITV) Elsewhere, Sam opened up last Sunday about being diagnosed with autism, after having previously disclosed his ADHD diagnosis in 2023. He termed the condition a "blessing" and referred to it as his "superpower". He candidly admitted feeling there was more to his earlier diagnosis and opted for a fun-filled approach to sharing the news on Instagram. His video featured him portraying two sides of himself – one embodying his true self and the other his ADHD persona. Text displayed in the engaging clip stated: "You got diagnosed with ADHD in your late twenties, but something still doesn't add up..." Crafting a light-hearted yet informative narrative, the reality TV personality captioned his post with: "Knew there was more to the story," followed by a chuckling emoji. The post received a wave of affirmative comments, commending his use of humour to highlight and educate on the matter, reports the Express.

Helen Flanagan slips into bargain blue swimsuit on solo trip after sad split
Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan flew off to France on Friday after splitting up with her boyfriend, Robbie Talbot, for a heartbreaking reason Helen Flanagan looked deep in thought when she was papped in France on Friday after calling it quits with her boyfriend. Seen sporting a bargain blue swimsuit following her heartbreaking split with Robbie Talbot, the Coronation Street star, 34, walked along the beach in Antibes alone, after reportedly having a 'grown up chat' with Robbie, who she had dated for a year, before calling it quits over claims she wanted children with the former footballer, 45. Following her heartbreak, the mum-of-three is now said to be focusing on the kids she shares with ex, Scott Sinclair - and her career - and decided to jet off abroad on a solo trip as she gets used to her single life again. Seen sporting a stunning £14 powder blue floral swimsuit from Primark while sunning herself at the swanky YOLO beach club in Antibes, France, the Rosie Webster star, cooled off in the sea, with her blonde locks tied up into a bun, sporting a pair of black Miu Miu designer sunglasses. After paddling in the crystal-clear water in the seaside city in the south of France, she then went for a stroll on her own, clutching a bright blue linen shirt, also from Primark and priced at £10, which, along with the swimsuit is part of the high street store's Love the Summer range and available to buy from May 27. It's been a tough time for the I'm A Me Out Of Here! star, who reportedly split from Robbie because they want "different things in life". The Bolton-born actress, best known for playing the role of Rosie Webster in Coronation Street, is said to have wanted children with the dad-of-two, with sources saying the pair had a "grown-up" chat after realising that things were not working out between them. The split comes just weeks after Helen was reportedly worried that her relationship could be "going backwards" after Robbie moved out months after they started living together. Helen reportedly was desperate to make the relationship work, but found it difficult to juggle her role as devoted mum to children Matilda, nine, Delilah, six, and three-year-old Charlie, while building something new. She also recently put her 'forever home' up for sale amid reports of financial strain. The actress has been candid about her bank balance and her mental health in recent months, admitting that at one point, she lost all her money. Helen had initially lived in the eight-bedroom house in Bolton, Greater Manchester, with her now ex-partner Scott 36, and their three children, prior to the couple's separation in 2022. Taking to Instagram in January, she shared: "My love life was a s**t show…. I didn't look after my mental health. I felt so s**t and sad. I felt like my whole life was f***ed up now and I had the perfect family. 13 years is a long time to be with someone. My whole 20s. I had a lot of family fall-outs too and I also lost basically all my money. Me and Scott weren't married we were engaged. "My mental health was so bad I thought maybe my kids would be better off without me and maybe they would be better off with their dad as he's more level-headed than me. I love my kids more than words can say, but when you are not well you're not well." Recently revealing that selling her family home, had left her 'anxious', she explained that while she's looking forward to the "fresh break" she was also worried about "downsizing". Explaining she'd put 'a lot of her savings' into the property to make it 'nice for her kids', she said recently on the Declutter podcast: "It actually makes me sad that I'm going to be leaving this house soon because I actually put so much effort into it. I put a lot of my savings into like doing the house up and stuff, and making it look really beautiful." Conceding it was a lot of work to manage, Helen continued: "It's an eight bedroomed house which is obviously really hard to keep on top of. I mean, I feel really lucky to to live here - well, soon to have lived here - because it is gorgeous but it's a lot to keep on top of." "But I think I'm gonna struggle to... Obviously when I do [move] because obviously I will be downsizing so much."
