Bargain Hunt rolls into Wetherby for another competitive antiquing session this Friday, July 11, at 12:15 PM on BBC One. The episode brings two family teams—a mum and daughter, and a dad and daughter—to the fair, setting up a clash of wills and shopping strategies.
As the teams tackle the sprawling fair, host Natasha Raskin Sharp takes a moment to learn about the importance of comfortable footwear when spending a day on your feet searching for bargains.
The blue team features Yorkshire mum Michele and her daughter Sam, while the red team has dad Suky and his daughter Serena. Sam considers herself headstrong, expecting Michele to keep her in check during their hunt. Suky, on the other hand, is keen on finding some jewelry, while Serena has her heart set on a Buddha. These contrasting desires create a challenge for their assigned experts, Roo Irvine and David Harper, as they try to guide their teams toward profitable finds.
The episode also includes a trip to cordwainer Payson Muller‘s workshop in York. Muller’s craft involves carving bespoke wooden shoe lasts, a skill that requires precision and artistry. Back at the auction, Caroline Hawley takes the gavel, and the outcome remains uncertain as both teams vie for the best possible results.
