One person’s clutter is another person’s potential fortune. That’s the premise behind Channel 4’s “Millionaire Hoarders,” returning this Friday with another batch of collectors looking to turn their possessions into life-changing cash. Experts guide collectors through the emotional process of parting with items, whether treasured or simply forgotten, with the goal of unearthing hidden riches.
This week, we meet Rita, who inherited a huge clock collection and more from her stepfather, Norman, a horologist. Norman’s passion has turned Rita’s home into a timepiece museum, one that has already cost her £10,000 in storage fees. Expert Clive steps in to help Rita downsize and sell Norman’s collection, with the aim of funding a trip to meet long-lost relatives. The episode will follow her difficult choice to part with her treasured inheritance.
In northeast England, Kevin’s collection of thousands of dresses, accumulated since the 1960s, presents a different kind of challenge. Expert Paula helps Kevin sort through the stockpile, even identifying what may be an original Coco Chanel dress. Kevin aims to improve how he houses his vast collection, a project which may come to fruition if the sale proves successful.
Find out if hidden treasures are found when “Millionaire Hoarders” airs Friday, 30 May at 8:00 PM GMT on Channel 4.
