Dickinson's Real Deal came to Wolverhampton on Saturday and the man who makes selling antiques must-see television proved he is still as lively as ever.

The show stopped off at Wolverhampton Racecourse, with collectors from across the city going along to try and turn their belongings into cash.

Host David Dickinson, 74, had previously spoken about how he loved bringing the show to Wolverhampton because of the 'great quality' of items brought in and collectors didn't disappoint.

David said: "We have had some great items come through today, they are always being brought in and it is my job to make sure the public get the best deal possible. It is about protecting them really, everything is done professionally here and everyone wants to get the best value for money on both sides."

Ann and David Moore, from Lanesfield, brought in a 19th century micro mosaic which caught the eye of a dealer.

Their item was valued at between £100 and £200 if it went to auction but the couple eventually settled for a £105 cash deal.

Another happy customer was Frederick Rollason, 66, from Netherton, who sold a collection of 'saucy' American comics for £30.
