Bargain Hunt Reviews
Newest Review: ... evaluation of the items before the auction commences. So that's the rules. The show itself is presented by Tim Wonnacott who does do a pretty good job in making the show interesting. He's quite a wacky character. Unfortunately Tim does make the show a little repetitive in places by using the same old phrases and expressions each and every episode. These being "leftover lolly" which is the leftover cash given to the expert for the bonus buy, "wiped its face" where an item sold is sold at the price it was bought for and thus makes no profit or loss, amongst others.

Why is this british programme being filmed in Australia? who is paying for the BBC presenters to go there? Has GB not have enough participants or running out of bargains? Australian Bargain Hunt programme would not be appropriate for british participants and I now have completely gone off watching this programme.

It usually lasts for 45 minutes, although there have been shorter and longer editions. The idea of the programme is to have a Red Team and a Blue Team, who will compete against each other to find the bargain of the day.
