BBC One’s Bargain Hunt takes viewers to Yorkshire for the Wetherby 19 episode, airing on Friday, September 20, 2024, at 12:15 PM.
In this episode, Caroline Hawley explores Leeds, where she discovers a unique collection of miniature hats crafted by the renowned 19th-century hatter, John Craig. These tiny replicas, including bijou bonnets, bowlers, and top hats, showcase the exceptional skill and expertise of their maker.
The show features two teams of antique hunters, each aiming to outbid and outsell the other. The first team comprises doctors and married couple Gareth and Linda, who are eager to diagnose a winning strategy. Their competitors are retailers Natalie and Steph, who bring their expertise in buying and selling to the forefront.
As the teams scour for treasures, the medics, accompanied by Philip Serrell, come across an intriguing item that resembles a Gladstone bag. However, they decide to keep searching. Meanwhile, the blues, guided by expert Jonathan Pratt, discover a miner’s yardstick, but it doesn’t spark their interest for long, and they move on.
The episode builds excitement as the teams’ purchases go under the hammer, and their fate is decided by Ripon auctioneer David Elstob and the bidders in the saleroom.
