Did she make any money on her items?
Is Tim-not-as-orange-as-David really such a twit?
Did she have a laugh?

but of greatest importance........

Was she allowed to keep the fleece?

and

what colour team was she in?

Got the gig - through a mate from some rambling club he's in. God, it sounds worse by the minute. :eek: :lol:

Didn't get to keep the fleece :evil: , possibly blue, had a whale (sorry :lol: :twisted: ) of a time, spunked half the beebs budget for a year, and thought Tim was, well, Tim. But you'll have to watch to see the full horror. It's imperative that the nation gets to share my shame. :lol:

Your post WAS there. What happened last night? JR's post on the Sisters-Techno thread suffered a similar fate (ie disappeared off the face of the earth). Blummin' ether.

@ Scotty - yep, there's tape machines and dvd recorders and all sorts poised across the land. May the p1ss-taking never stop. :lol:

There's going to be a lot of copies of this around now! :lol:

It's still on I think.

Bargain Hunt on BBC TV is a program where two teams of two people each are sent to buy antiques from antique fairs and then try to sell them for a profit at an auction. Whichever team makes a bigger profit (or more usually, whichever team makes a smaller loss) is the winner.

For some inexplicable reason, the original presenter of this show, a minor crook named David Dickinson, is now somewhat of a celebrity in the UK, and has left to carry on on such sh!te as "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!" to be replaced by a favourite of pensioners the length and breadth of Britain, Tim Wonnacott.

Mrs Dave is on the show as I type (I trust; I'm sitting in the office with no ready access to BBC1. I just hope it recorded.)
