Other incredible once-in-a-lifetime prizes arranged for by Bonhams included being the personal guest of Alan Davies at an episode of QI, being shown behind the scenes of Have I Got News For You by Paul Merton and Ian Hislop, tea with members of the cast of The Queen and even a personal edition of University Challenge hosted by Jeremy Paxman for the winning bidder’s family versus one of their choosing.
Patrick Masson, Bonhams Managing Director for the UK and Europe said: “This is a truly fantastic result and we are so pleased to have played our part in supporting the NHS staff and volunteers working so hard for us on the frontline. We would like to thank all the generous donors for making this possible, and to congratulate the winners, who now have some exceptional experiences to look forward to.”
