BBC One’s “Bargain Hunt” rolls into Shepton Mallet this Monday, bringing with it the usual mix of antique treasures, shrewd bidding, and the ever-present hope of a “monster profit.” This time, the Bath & West Showground serves as the hunting ground for two teams eager to unearth hidden gems and outsmart the auctioneers.
Leading the charge for the red team are mother and daughter Christine and Rheanna, under the watchful eye of expert Philip Serrell. They’ll be facing stiff competition from sisters-in-law Elizabeth and Carmen, guided by expert Tim Weeks on the blue team. The familiar format sees each team tasked with finding three unique items within a strict budget, items they hope will bring in big bucks at auction.
While the teams scour the stalls, host Charlie Ross takes a literary detour to Bath, exploring the city’s unexpected connection to Mary Shelley’s classic novel “Frankenstein.”
Who will uncover the most valuable finds? Will the experts’ advice pay off? Tune in to BBC One on Monday, March 31st at 12:15 PM to see if either team can transform their bargains into a monstrous return.
