We were on Bargain Hunt – lying on our applications backfired and there was no-one at the auction, we had no chance

TWO women who appeared on Bargain Hunt have dished behind-the-scenes secrets from the show - and admitted lying on their applications.

Jodie Wood and Layla Milne starred on the show earlier this month and left their mark.

The women went against BBC expert Mark Stacey's advice and purchased an item they immediately fell in love with.

After setting their sights on a porcelian pig money box the pair snapped the item up.

However, their appearance on the show didn't go to plan as Jodie and Layla ultimately made a loss when their items went to auction.

But Layla, who fell ill on the day of the auction so couldn't attend, blamed the filming schedule for their losses.

Jodie explained to the : "It was a Wednesday in Grantham and there was no one there and there was no one in the building and hardly anyone online and stuff."

Both women also revealed they were selected to appear on the show on their first application attempt - but lied to show Bargain Hunt bosses.

They admitted lying about their antiques knowledge to bag their place on the show.

Jodie and Layla applied for the show after a man who installed their alarm urged them to sign up after he starred in the show.

"So we applied and we get to our shopping day and our opposition is the same man who told us to apply!

"We got there at eight in the morning and went, 'It's you You fixed our alarm you told us to apply'."
