Christopher Timothy and Lysette Anthony

Overview

Former Blue Peter presenters Valerie Singleton and Janet Ellis rise to the challenge of bargain hunting... and there is not a piece of sticky back plastic in sight! The two women, each accompanied by one of their closest friends, brave the cold at the Ardingly Antiques Fair in Sussex to scour for bargains which they can then sell on at auction. Antiques experts Anita Manning and Paul Laidlaw are on hand to offer advice. Among the items the teams choose are a pair of Venetian glass fish and an ivory-coloured Bakelite radio. During the day, presenter Tim Wonnacott takes time out to explore Valerie's interest in Russian lacquer boxes and Janet's fascination with religious ephemera. There is great interest in their items when they are sold at auction in Wandsworth, London, but things do not go quite as they may have hoped.
