News about David Dickinson

Bargain Hunt viewers were stunned after Wednesday night's episode of the BBC show took a sudden explosive turn. The new instalment of the popular daytime programme saw presenter Christina Trevanion welcome another red and blue team to battle it out and find the best deals. However, the episode soon descended into chaos when one stall owner took offence to the contestants opinions about an item they were flogging.

Willie Collum's long-awaited talk-in over the nuts and bolts of VAR and the role it plays in affecting matchdays offered no lack of valuable answers. It left one residual question, though. Why has it taken us just short of two years to get to this point? Can't everyone see the benefits of making this kind of thing part of the staple diet of the lunatic whirl of Scottish football rather than just an occasional period of sober reflection?

Bargain Hunt's Christina Trevanion has issued an exciting new update on the BBC One show.

Strictly Come Dancing took viewers down memory lane on Saturday as the BBC aired the show's first ever episode to celebrate its landmark 20th anniversary - and fans are all saying the same thing. Viewers couldn't get over the 'carnage' they witnessed and how brutal the judges used to be with their comments. The hit Latin and ballroom show first aired on 15 May 2004 and has come a long way since.

An extravagant two bedroom apartment decorated with £100,000 of goldleaf can be yours for £425,000. The eye-catching two bedroom flat - described as a 'golden opportunity' by estate agents - is situated within a gated building in Acton, West London. The property also comes with two bathrooms and a generous 736 square feet of living space - all decorated in incredible gold-decor and furnishings. Originally built in the 1920's, the property maintains its art deco origin, and has been decorated in gold leaf twice, costing the owners almost £100,000.

Former Bargain Hunt presenter Tim Wonnacott's shock exit from the programme made headlines back in 2015. Tim, 73, starred on the popular show for more than a decade between 2003 and 2015 after replacing David Dickinson, before deciding to step down. MailOnline looks at why the beloved presenter chose to leave the programme behind almost a decade ago and what he's been up to since.

A Bargain Hunt team was left astonished on Friday's episode after learning how much profit they made from a silver sterling brooch. Host Caroline Hawley went down to Exeter to meet the two pair of contestants in the latest instalment of the BBC show. As the two squads battled it all out in a bid to get the best bargains for antiques and sell them at auction for higher prices, one team in particular was stunned by the incredible profit they made.

The BBC's Bargain Hunt has announced a huge shake-up, bringing in a new presenting line up for the new season. A bigger and better team of seven are set to front the popular reality game show series on a rotational basis, as contestants battle it out to find treasure among trash at car boot sales.

These are the terrifying scenes after a TV antiques expert was struck over the head with a hammer after bravely confronting two robbers who took more than $100,000 worth of jewelry from his store. During the minute-long raid last Tuesday lunchtime, Ian Towning, one of London's best-known dealers, was caught on CCTV. Mark Simmons, his security guard, discovered two balaclava-clad men outside the Chelsea store on a monitor, sparking the ordeal. Mr Simmons criticizes them but is knocked unconscious and struck on the head. The robbers were seen unsuccessfully attempting to smash the main display cabinet's reinforced glass with a sledgehammer, according to video.

According to MailOnline, celebrity antiques dealer Ian Towning was the perpetrator of a violent robbery that took thousands of pounds of jewellery from his store. The 73-year-old, who has appeared on television, stars 'Dickinson's Real Deal' and 'Posh Pawn' as a guest expert, was one of three people wounded after the robbers stormed into a tiny arcade in Chelsea. As the men burst inside, he was behind the counter of Bourbon Hanby Arcade, which specialises in costly antique jewelry.

Dickinson's Real Deal, a famous daytime TV show, returned to screens on Monday for its 19th series. It comes just months after David Dickinson, the show's legendary host, was forced to deny that he had secretly departed from the series. Dickinson's Real Deal started airing in 2006 and it is back on televisions at 2 p.m. on ITV for its next season.

SpareRoom was launched in 2004 by Rupert Hunt, and it has since developed to become one of the country's most popular rental portals. This Is Money founder This Is Money has flown to visit where he used to live and then relocated to his new home to discuss what he thinks is wrong with the UK's rented market.

After finding that he had been adopted at 12-years old, David Dickinson said he was not affected at all. The presenter, 81, was taken in by his adoptive parents Jim and Joyce, who lived in a working class neighborhood of Stockport, but didn't know they weren't biological family until he was almost a teenager. David said he was not surprised when he discovered evidence proving his history when he was admitted to Barnado's Orphanage for Waifs and Strays as a child.

According to reports, Dan Hatfield, an ITV actor, has been lined up to replace David Dickinson on Dickinson's Real Deal. Dan, 39, is known to viewers as a money saving specialist on This Morning and also appeared in Million Pound Pawn, a series on pawnbrokers. When David, 81, steps down from his role, he tells The Daily Mail that he now appears to front the modern antiques and collectibles show.

Following the 15 seasons, the television veteran, 81, will be filming the forthcoming series this year, but has decided not to resign from his duties as a host. MailOnline has learned that antiques dealer David, who appeared on BBC One's Bargain Hunt before 2004, and has appeared in Strictly Come Dancing and I'm A Celebrity, is planning to spend more time at home with his wife Lorne Lesley, who is both in their 80s. Although David is leaving the long running show, which first aired in 2006, ITV is yet to make a decision about the show's future and whether it will rebrand in David's absence.

Mimi Boutique, the antiques dealer, who co-founded with daughter Zara Holland, has doubled in size since the pandemic and she now has to dedicate more hours to the job. Cheryl, a daytime TV fixture for years before ex-Miss Great Britain Zara starred on the dating show, said that Real Deals are made, despite numerous viewers mistakenly believing that money was not exchanged. Cheryl reveals how the ITV show, which is hosted by David Dickinson and airs on weekdays on the channel, has evolved over the years, implying that Real Deal gives more intrigue and drama than rival Antiques Roadshows because genuine sales are made during auction.

JOHN ST JOHN STEAM 1-4 CELTIC: JOHN McGARRY (JOHN PARK) - JOHN McGARRY - JOHN McGARRY – AT MCDIARMID PARK: In case it distracts them from their jobs, he will not set points goals for his Celtic players (pictured) this season. If the Australian belatedly decides that such a tactic is required in order for his team to find something extra, Heaven will help the rest of the league. At this point in time, it seems that there are no stops them. Rangers are asking of them by tending to their company, but the answers provided by Postecoglou's men remain resounding. With just 13 games remaining in the league season, it's becoming more difficult to decide where exactly the banana skins are going to come from.

When it comes to making money, David Dickinson is the real deal. And it seems his entrepreneurial spirit has passed down the family, as Myles Dickinson Brown, the television star's grandson, has been the youngest solo Dragons Den candidate at 18 years old. The youngster was on the show this week and was looking for a £35,000 investment for 35% of his venture, which makes personalised bank cards.

After becoming frustrated with long delays during Celtic's 4-2 victory over Dundee United on Saturday, Ange Postecoglou slammed the way VAR is being used in Scotland. Due to injury time goals from replacements Kyogo Furuhashi and Liel Abada, the Hoops stayed seven points ahead of Rangers at the top of the Scottish Premiership. All six goals were tested by VAR, which made its debut in the Scottish Premiership this season, disrupting the game's flow.

Who would have thought Old Trafford would be the scene of the most ridiculous piece of Bargain Hunt scavenging football has seen for many a season?
