“Bargain Hunt” heads to Ardingly antiques fair this Friday, and amidst the usual array of vintage furniture and quirky collectables, one item in particular catches the eye: 1990s vinyl. Could this be the key to auction success for one of the teams? Presenter Christina Trevanion explores the resurgent popularity of 90s vinyl with music specialist Martin Hughes, examining the potential value of these once-discarded records.
Meanwhile, the red and blue teams begin their hunt for bargains. Friends Andrew and David make up the red team, while couple Melina and Phil compete for the blue team. Experts Tim Weeks and Nick Hall are on hand to offer guidance, but ultimately, the teams must trust their own instincts as they tackle the bustling aisles of the fair. The red team considers a set of industrial-style lights, but the price gives them pause. The blue team spots some upcycled stools, but decides to pass.
The tension builds as the teams head to the auction in Bourne End, Buckinghamshire, with auctioneer Tom Baxter. One item rises above the rest and becomes the star attraction, but which team will claim the victory? Find out on BBC One this Friday, April 11th at 12:15 PM.
