BBC Two’s “Celebrity Antiques Road Trip” heads to the Welsh countryside this Wednesday with a competitive pairing: former England International cricketer Monty Panesar and British Army veteran Simon Weston. These two celebrities, each with a fascinating story to tell, join forces with antique experts in a quest to uncover hidden treasures and raise money for charity.
Simon Weston teams up with Roo Irvine, while Monty Panesar partners with Tim Medhurst. Their shared love for shiny things leads to spirited antique hunting, with friendly rivalry and plenty of banter. Monty’s competitive streak gets a workout as he gives Tim a cricket masterclass, while the two teams bond over a shared experience trying the Paralympic sport of boccia in Swansea.
