The thrill of the chase and the potential for auction glory return to BBC One this Monday as “Bargain Hunt” sets up shop in Exeter. Join Eric Knowles as he engages fairgoers in a lively quiz about the history of a curious cast-iron pot, a reminder of the stories held within everyday objects.
This time, the red team, consisting of Kelly and Mark, squares off against the blue team, Sarah and Kellie. Guided by experts Izzie Balmer (reds) and Serhat Ahmet (blues), the teams have just one hour to scour the Exeter antiques fair for hidden treasures. With limited time and budgets, they’ll need sharp eyes and strategic thinking to unearth potential auction stars.
The blue team sets their sights on tube-lined ceramics, while the reds develop a keen interest in canine collectibles. But it’s a big cat collectible that causes a stir when the teams head to auction in Wiltshire. Will their chosen items roar to success or turn into a cat-astrophe? “Bargain Hunt” airs Monday, 19 May at 12:15 PM GMT on BBC One. Tune in to see which team bags the biggest profit.
