David Dickinson’s ITV1 afternoon show, Dickinson’s Real Deal, has been on our screens since 2006.
The show features modern antiques brought along by the general public for valuations with the potential to sell them to one of the expert dealers on the show.
While David is an expert in antiques himself, earlier presenting Bargain Hunt for the BBC, on his ITV show he often takes the side of the member of the public to get them the best price for their items.
His team of experts has varied over time, but the format has broadly stayed the same, with the idea being that people get the best price for selling their possessions, either by accepting the dealer’s offer or by taking them to auction with David to sell them under the gavel.
The show almost always carries a cash competition for viewers, and you can find the details for the latest prize draw below.

Dickinson’s Real Deal Competition Prizes
David Dickinson’s prize draws always seem to feature impressive cash prizes, sometimes as much as £100,000. The cash amounts vary a lot, with some of the largest competitions running over several weeks.
The Latest Real Deal Competition
Real Deal is more like GMB and This Morning than the other afternoon game shows like Tipping Point, as they almost always run a competition. The other afternoon programming tend to have a new competition every few weeks or so.
When on air, you will find the details of the latest competition here, and for this competition entries have closed to win £125,000 in cash.
Entry Routes To Win £125,000 Cash
There are four choices to enter the DRD competition – paid entries cost £2.00, or the free postal entry route will not need an entry fee but does need a stamp.
The four routes for entry and price for each are:
| Phone | £2.00 |
| Text (SMS) | £2.00 |
| Online | £2.00 |
| Post | Free |
Closing Dates For Entering To Win £125,000 in cash
Real Deal draws generally run for at least a couple of weeks, and occasionally as long as four weeks. Those month long prize draws usually mean the biggest prizes are up for grabs – typically up to £100,000 cash.
Paid route closing dates tend to fall on a Friday unless there’s bank holidays during the time the comp runs, with free postal entries generally needing to arrive by the following Thursday afternoon.
More specifically for the current competition when one’s running, here are the dates and times you’ll need to get your entry in to win £125,000 in cash:

How To Enter The real Deal Competition
Let’s move on to the nuts and bolts of how to actually lodge your entry, and we’ll go through them one by one.
Phone Number
To enter by phone, just call 0906 87 88 123. Calls cost £2.00 plus your standard network access charge on your phone bill.
You can enter this way from a landline or mobile phone with the bill payer’s permission.
Phone lines close on 23rd September 2024 at 10:00am.
Text Number
If you’d like to enter from your mobile phone by text instead of calling, it’s easy to do. You just need to send a message just like you would to anyone else, except the number is a shortcode instead of a normal phone number.
Send your message to the number 68123 with the message WINNER.
Your entry will cost you £2.00 on your next mobile bill, in addition to your standard messaging cost.
Text entries need to be completed by 23rd September 2024 at 10:00am in order to qualify for the competition.
You can read more about text entries here.
Online Entry
Online entry costs £2.00 for a single entry through the website at ITV Win.
To enter online, you’ll just need to head over to the ITV Win website and click the Real Deal competition tile. Alternatively just go straight to the competition entry page here.
For more detail on how online entries work, see our page here.
Postal Entry
The best thing about postal entries is that they’re free (if you ignore the cost of a stamp of course!).
To take advantage of this cheaper route, while you need to buy a stamp, it’s far cheaper than the £2.00 paid entry fee.
Just send your name and phone number in an envelope to:
DRD 1027
PO Box 7558
Derby
DE1 0NQ
If you prefer, it’s fine to use a postcard instead of putting your details into an envelope, and it doesn’t matter whether you use a first or second class stamp in the post.
What does matter is to make sure it arrives with ITV’s mail centre by 26th September 2024 at 4:00pm.
Here’s the more detailed info on postal entries.
