Dickinson's Real Deal shared a heartbreaking tribute at the end of today's show after a participant's young grandson died.
A repeat, hosted by David Dickinson, was aired on ITV as a man named Phil appeared on the show with a small figurine of a man on a motorbike. He explained that as it moves the driver of the motorbike jumps off.
Expert Simon Schneider told him that it was a tin-plated piece from the 1950s. He said: "There's a lot of these tin toys around but I haven't seen this particular one before."

Phil went on to explain how he got his hands on the little toy. He said: "I actually got it from a car boot sale over 30 years ago and I think it's worth a lot of money."
Simon asked: "A lot of money? What's that assumption based on?" The guest said: "Well I've looked on the internet and they're very rare. I think I saw it for about £650."
That was when Simon asked what he would do with any money if he did manage to sell his item on the show. Phil said: "Well my daughter just had a baby, he's a week old. So I'm going to give it to my grandchild.
"So the more you give me, the more I'll give to my daughter." He explained that it was his third grandchild and the host joked with him about being able to give a grandchild back at the end of the day.
Initially Simon offered Phil £100 for the tin toy but the seller wasn't interested and he tried to bargain for £130. Eventually the expert upped his offer a little more to £120 after some hard negotiations from Phil and they made themselves a deal.
Sadly at the end of the ITV show, the screen went black before a tribute flashed up. It showed images of Phil and his newborn grandson.
The text that accompanied the images read: "This programme is dedicated to the memory of Phil's grandson, Brody, who tragically passed away on 1st October 2021." Another image flashed up as they wrote: "Rest in peace Brody".
