MUMBAI: US broadcaster NBC's game show Deal or No Deal says "no deal" to breast cancer.

The show teams up with Ford and its Warriors in Pink campaign to fight breast cancer and to raise awareness.

In the 19 October special "pink" episode, the show's host Howie Mandel shows his support by wearing pink socks and brings the models on stage in stunning pink dresses, complete with pink briefcases. The "Play At Home Lucky Case Game" also goes "pink" as viewers at home will have a chance to win $10,000 and a limited edition Warriors in Pink Ford Mustang.

When breast cancer survivor Sharon Osbourne pays Indianapolis, Indiana contestant and breast cancer survivor Ashlee Mundy an unexpected visit, she not only offers her words of support, she also joins her family on the supporter bench.

Additionally, as Mundy plays for the top prize of $1 million, she receives extra support via satellite from Elizabeth Edwards, the best-selling author and wife of Senator John Edwards who has battled breast cancer herself, and from actor Alec Baldwin 30 Rock, whose mother has a foundation in her name, the Carol M Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund out of Stony Brook, New York.
