Danny was full of enthusiasm as he introduced the town and then the two teams of contestants, but some Bargain Hunt viewers were not so impressed.
Taking to Twitter one wrote: "@BBCBargainHunt do mention to #dannysebastian if you have a moment that the words are “SHOPPING” not “SHOPPIN” and “HERE” not “EAR”."
Another added: "Free hundred pannhs and have to buy free items. Why can't people enunciate? I'm out. Bye."
Viewers who did stick around soon became annoyed by the contestants too, with both teams enthusiastically wooping and calling out when they reached the auction room later in the show.

Whether it was celebrating a bid on their item or trying to encourage buyers to up their offers, the noise soon got on the nerves of some watching at home.
One moaned: "#bargainhunt is not the same today. The host and it being shouty. Disappointing."
Another added: "Screaming and jeering is not needed on #bargainhunt."
After all items went to auction, it was up to Danny to let the red and blue teams know who had won.

He revealed the blue team had triumphed with a £70 profit - big money in Bargain Hunt terms - while the red team ended with a £29 loss.
However, Danny quickly reassured them that it was still a "respectable score" considering some of the losses the show has seen over the years.
Bargain Hunt airs weekdays at 12.15pm on BBC One.
