DAVID GETS THE BIG RED BOOK (24.12.02)(02.01.03)

'This is Your Life' the famous tribute show on BBC 1 returned to our screens on Thursday 2 January and David was their very first subject. The story of David's early life and his meteoric rise to fame made an exciting and emotional show, it was great TV and highly entertaining.

TIM WONNACOTT DAYTIME SHOWS TO AIR FEBRUARY (14.01.03)

This site announced last month that Tim Wonnacott was to be the new presenter of daytime Bargain Hunt (see item below) and now Tim is out at fairs and auctions up and down the country filming his first series which will air at the end of February. Tim says "I've been with the Antiques Roadshow for five or six years, but I was delighted to have been asked to present the daytime episodes of Bargain Hunt. Bargain Hunt is an interesting show because it sort of works in reverse. Most people buy items at an auction and try to make a profit on them at an antiques fair, rather than the other way round."

THE NEW FACE OF DAYTIME BARGAIN HUNT (15.12.02)

We would like to announce that David Dickinson will pass the reins of daytime Bargain Hunt to Tim Wonnacott who is to become the future (daytime) host, and will commence filming very soon.

Tim Wonnacott
David has worked with Tim on BBC 2's 'The Antiques Show' and Tim appears in David's video 'Cheap as Chips'. He is probably best known as a regular on the "Antiques Roadshow". David sends his very best wishes to Tim, in his new role.

Please don't forget that there are in the region of 40 daytime shows hosted by David Dickinson still to be aired and these will go out in the morning slot early next year. So there's lots more fun to be had with Mr Dickinson in the mornings!
