Henry Cooper and Geoff Capes

Actors Christopher Timothy and Lysette Anthony are right at home on a television set or in a theatre, but put them in an auction sale room and it is quite a different story. The pair shop for bargains at the Barkham Antiques Centre in Berkshire with their finds going up for auction later in London. Christopher is partnered for the show by actor friend Richard O'Callaghan and assisted by antiques expert Kate Bliss. During the shopping day Christopher discusses his passion for Elvis Presley with Tim and is shown some Elvis collectables, including a replica Elvis jumpsuit worth 3,000 pounds and some of 'The King's' hair, validated by his barber. Lysette is partnered by friend and yoga teacher Michelle Pernetta. Antiques expert Mark Stacey helps guide the team through their buys. Tim begins by showing her a selection of tea cups from the Royal Worcester Museum, including one that was owned by Lord Nelson and valued for at least 10,000 pounds. Among the items the teams find is a rather special old railway sign and an Art Nouveau lamp base, assumed to have once lit a stylish railway dining compartment. But will the items make any profit when they are sold?

Tony Blackburn and Alvin Stardust

Take a handful of antiques, a dollop of deals and drizzle in a couple of celebrity chefs. And what do you have? A recipe for a great antiques show! Top chefs Gary Rhodes OBE, and Brian Turner CBE, were both aiming to cook up a win when they met up at an auction in London. The two cooks were there to sell the items they had bought at an antiques centre in Hungerford, with a view to making the most profit. Gary was accompanied by his wife Jenny, and felt confident that she had a good eye for style and a bargain. Among the items they found was a Lalique Christmas decoration and an Italian glass vase. The team was guided in their buys by antiques expert Mark Stacey. Presenter Tim Wonnacott thought he was seeing double as Gary had taken along his famous Spitting Image puppet. Tim showed Gary a Victorian cucumber-straightening device and an up-market silver cucumber slicer. Brian Turner was partnered by his daughter-in-law Michelle, and advised by expert Jonathan Pratt. Among the items they found was a large 1960s Betty Boo figurine and a silver mustard pot. Brian, well known in particular for his meat dishes, was shown a set of four 19th-century silver platters by top silversmith Paul Storr - today they are worth more than 30,000 pounds. The two chefs, both old friends and kitchen comrades, enjoyed some friendly rivalry. But when it got to the sale, their antique-finding prowess - just like their kitchen skills - was a serious business.
