The ever-charming “Antiques Road Trip” returns to BBC One this Tuesday, with experts Tahmina Ghaffar and David Harper hitting the road in their trusty Datsun. This time, their bargain-hunting adventure takes them to the North East of England, from the historic town of Morpeth to the charming market town of Hexham.
As always, the thrill is in the chase. David’s eye is caught by a curious leather mask and Tahmina unearths a bronze peacock amongst the usual assortment of vintage trinkets. Their friendly rivalry, combined with the historical anecdotes that accompany each discovery, makes “Antiques Road Trip” as much about the journey as it is about the destination.
But this episode offers more than just antique shopping. The duo also takes a detour to the iconic Tyne Bridge, exploring the story of the woman who helped bring this engineering marvel to life. It’s a nice blend of history and treasure hunting, a reminder that every object has a story to tell.
The final showdown takes place at an auction in Morley, Yorkshire. Will David’s quirky finds or Tahmina’s elegant peacock fetch the highest price? Tune in to BBC One on Tuesday, March 4th at 4:30 PM to find out.
