David Dickinson's - 'Cheap as Chips'
The Duke's Priceless Guide to the World of Antiques

Whether you need to raise some extra cash raiding family heirlooms from the attic or need some advice on what are the best buys at the local Antiques market or fair, David Dickinson's 'Cheap as Chips' - The Duke's Priceless Guide to the World of Antiques, out to own on DVD and VHS on the 18th November, is the must have guide for you.

Starring the one and only David Dickinson, real life Lovejoy and presenter of BBC 1's Bargain Hunt, this latest release from Momentum Pictures takes you inside his unique world of buying and selling antiques and collectibles in this highly entertaining and informative video and DVD.

David Dickinson a.k.a. 'The Duke' shot to fame as the flamboyant presenter of BBC 1's Bargain Hunt, the BBC's greatest daytime success, which regularly achieves 2 million viewers per episode, beating This Morning in the ratings. His sartorial style and his trademark pinstriped suit have helped the ex-antiques buyer become a housewives' favourite. His iconic status has led to comments such as 'Elvis is not dead - he's alive and working on Bargain Hunt' to appear on his website www.david-dickinson.net

'Cheap as Chips' - The Duke's Priceless Guide to the World of Antiques follows David around the country as he visits galleries, antiques fairs and auction houses including Sotheby's. During his travels, our stylish guide interviews auctioneers, gallery owners and antique dealers for their secret tips and tricks of the trade and offers his own invaluable advice on finding those not to be missed bargains, and how to negotiate the best price!

The Duke has a real passion for the antiques business, having spent 30 years as a wheeler-dealer, but still exudes passion and energy about his specialised area, exhibition-quality furniture. This is a far cry from the show, which he has raised to cult status, where 2 teams of contestants are given £200 to spend on bric-a-brac in the hope of realising the highest profit when the goods are auctioned at the end of the show.

If you or someone you know has a passion for bargain hunting, enjoys nothing more than searching through bric-a-brac at Car Boot Sales and Antique Fairs, or someone who is a David Dickinson fan, then 'Cheap as Chips' - The Duke's Guide to the Exciting World of Antiques is the ultimate Christmas gift!
