Synopsis
Welsh antiques panel game borrowing from a few different formats.
Two teams - one from North Wales and the other from South Wales - challenge each other to guess the object from one of three descriptions.
At the same time, the studio audience is challenged to guess the item's value in order to raise money for a chosen charity (drawn out of a box at the end of the show)
At the midway point, both teams are challenged to identify a studio guest's item with only a cryptic clue for help.
Key moments
At least one episode saw the audience fail to get a single value correct - and thus, failed to raise any money for charity!
Trivia
Title translates as Strike a Deal.
Items provided by the National Museum of History at St Fagans, conveniently a short drive away from HTV's studios at Culverhouse Cross in Cardiff.
