Amol Rajan on some of his favourite lots in our auction for Great Ormond Street Hospital

The editor of The Independent runs through a few of the items that have caught his eye, including a lunch with himself

The Independent's online auction for Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) has been live since Tuesday, and readers have already been bidding thousands of pounds across a range of fantastic lots.

These include a romantic, week-long stay in 5-star luxury on the island of Mauritius; a private, back-stage tour of Elf the musical; an Aston-Martin performance driving course; and a giant cuddly-bear signed by Johnny Depp and Benedict Cumberbatch. And as Amol Rajan, editor of The Independent, mentions in the video above, you can also bid on a lot he is very excited about – lunch with him.
