TELEVISION stardom is on offer to anyone with the gift for haggling.

Tyne Tees Television is looking for people who have a gift for getting money off and extras on deals to take part in a series called I'm Not Paying That.

It will feature contestants battling against each other to get the best bargains on a range of goods, from computers and mobile phones to holidays and hotel accommodation.

Series producer Derek Proud said: "Everyone loves a bargain and everyone admires people who are good at it."

Filming starts next month and the show will be screened later in the year.

To take part, call 0191-269 3882.
