Advantages: Mr Dickinson's catch phrases

Disadvantages: very few

Bargain Hunt, where can I begin. Of course David Dickinson, the man is a god, he's an orange god, and I kid you not. He's the most stylist man on TV to date, he always wears a cracking suit, with a bouffon(I think that's how you spell it), hair cut, but recently voted worse hair cut in the metro.

The show it's self is simple, two teams get £200 each to go in an antiques fair to buy products to sell in an auction, but they only have one hour to do so. Yet they have an expert to advise them, but they have the final say. They have the regular experts but my favourite is Phillip Seril, the man has an eye for wooden objects. Any profit the teams make they are allowed to keep, but if they lose it's on the BBC.

I think the programme is now on everyday at 12.00pm on BBC 1, but I’m not sure as I’m back in college so I haven't watched it for a while. But it's also on UK Style on sky everyday from 5.30-6.30pm, but I’ve seen most of them now, but yet I still watch it. Bargain hunt has also gone prime team on BBC 1, which is on Thursday nights, the rules have slightly chanced the teams have £500 and I thing 2 hours. They’re the times to watch it.

The auction, most teams lose, there is only about 40% profit but most of the time it's only about £10 profit or something small. But the most profit I have ever seem is a staggering £480, it was a truly amazing. Yet at prime time I have never seem any one make a profit yet, (I’ve missed one or two episodes, so if there has been a profit made please tell me).

The programme is so simple, and easy to watch even if you don't know nothing about antiques, which I don't but you do learn a bit about them.

Bargain hunt is all you need when you have been out the night before and just lay in bed watching with a hang over.
