Stephen Mulhern was given the task of hosting the show and it has since been a hit with viewers.
One highlight was when contestant Brad Wale took to the podium and he had viewers in tears as he opened up on his everyday battle with Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
He admitted that he was appearing on the show to try and raise some money, to tick things off his bucket list.
His co-stars were wiped away their own tears from their face as his mum was looking on as she sat in the audience.
The game ended in disaster when poor Brad walked away with a measly fiver after he chose a No Deal option when his odds were looking good.
Since his appearance, he was inundated with support after his friend Rochelle set up a GoFundMe page.
The donation page, called Help Brad get his bucket list, has so far raised over £113,000 at the time of writing.
9,500 people have sent donations in for the incredible cause and the figure is still rising.
