Dickinson’s Real Deal comes to National Motorcycle Museum in Solihull – and you’re invited
ANTIQUES celebrity David Dickinson is hitting the road to bring his ITV Real Deal show back to the Midlands this week and people are invited to take part.‘The Duke’ and his team will be at the National Motorcycle Museum in Solihull on Saturday, May 13, with a ‘dealer day’ for a new episode of Dickinson’s Real Deal.
Doors will be open between 8am and 5pm and people are urged to take their antiques and collectables along for a free valuation to the venue on Coventry Road, Bickenhill, Solihull, B92 0EJ.
They can then choose whether to accept money on the spot from a dealer – or try their ‘bobby dazzler’ at auction.
Dickinson’s Real Deal dealers set to be there on the day are Mark Stevens, Simon Schneider, Fay Rutter and James Layte.
Admission is free and you do not need to book a place or a ticket, simply bring photo ID.
Those attending will also get half-price entry into the motorcycle museum itself on Saturday by showing their event ticket stub at the museum entrance.
David Dickinson said: “It’s great to bring the show back to Solihull.”
Back for a 19th series, Dickinson’s Real Deal is one of the most popular daytime shows on ITV, regularly watched by over a million people.
Members of the public bringing their antiques and collectables along on Saturday will receive free advice from a team of independent valuers.
As usual, David Dickinson will be keeping an eye on the deals and giving advice about whether to take the dealers’ cash or gamble at auction.
But the final decision lies with each contributor and it’s up to them to decide which option is the Real Deal.
