Tea, scones and an earl; Downton Abbey fans can bid on a high tea with the real-life Earl of Grantham, and Crawley patriarch, Hugh Bonneville.
The hour-long high tea, donated by Prime TV, is part of Starship Children's Hospital's Spring Clean September charity drive.
The package had reached $615 on Trade Me last night and included return flights from any main centre to Auckland.
The British actor, also a patron for international medical charity Merlin and London children's charity Scene & Heard, said he was delighted to support a worthwhile cause.
"I'm truly looking forward to meeting the auction winner and encourage all Kiwis to support Starship's Spring Clean, however they can."
