Date BBC Bargain Hunt presenters will be in Staffordshire's cathedral city for 'super shoot'

Fans of the popular day time TV show are being invited to join in the action at Richard Winterton Auctioneers at The Lichfield Auction Centre in Wood End Lane Fradley near Lichfield on June 16.

Filming takes place during that day’s Antiques & Home sale and visitors do not need to book places. Fans just need to arrive in good time for the sale which is scheduled to start at 9am.

Cameras will be rolling for six episodes, with 12 teams of contestants guided by presenter Natasha Raskin Sharp and experts Roo Irvine and Philip Serrell who will be helping the red and blue teams.

Shopping for items to feature in the auction previously took place at an antiques centre in Newark and at Southwell Racecourse antiques fair.

The busy Bargain Hunt team have so far filmed 39 episodes this year.

Auctioneer Richard Winterton, who will be yielding the gavel on the day, says: “We’re excited to be hosting Bargain Hunt once again at The Lichfield Auction Centre. Come along and be part of the action whether you’re bidding, browsing or just keen to experience the fun of Bargain Hunt, it’s set to be a fantastic day.

“Spread the word and bring a friend, don’t miss your chance to get involved in the excitement.”

Mr Winterton, the show's Shropshire based presenter Christina Trevanion, Roo Irvine and Raj Bisram filmed a special episode to mark the coronation of King Charles III two years ago. 

Winterton Auctioneers’ catalogues go online a week before the sale date via richardwinterton.co.uk/auction-dates with lots including garden items, tools, electricals, furniture, jewellery, coins, silver, pictures, ceramics, glass and household goods.

Appointments for free valuations of all types of items can be booked on 01543 25108.
