About this product

Product Information

Antiques expert Tim Wonnacott (BARGAIN HUNT) sets off on a fascinating journey investigating the scenic towns and cities of Britain and the antiques and collectables that define their particular area. Towing his vintage Airstream caravan, Tim visits a lively local event at each stop on the map to explore the surroundings and history of the area as well as meet some of the locals - owners, enthusiasts, collectors - who've brought along their precious treasures for him to look at. Tim draws on his immense knowledge of antiques to unravel their histories and provenance, which often takes him on visits to see relevant collections of historical importance. His travels take him to Glasgow, Bakewell, London, Windsor, Hay on Wye, Cambridge, Derby, Bristol, Worcester and Manchester where he encounters a wide variety of objects from a vintage car to Georgian porcelain and fine glass, as well as the quirkiest of items from a peep egg to a dongola oar! Plus Tim takes a look at the incredible Clifton suspension bridge in Bristol and reveals the history of boating on the river Thames. So get on board for a journey through scenic Britain and its wonderful collection of objet d'art. Bristol Tim Wonnacott is at the Bristol Harbour Festival to meet locals with their precious antiques which help tell the story of this historic city. Tim meets the Lord Mayor to talk about his ancient ceremonial sword and values a ticket that gets you in to the Bristol Old Vic Theatre Forever! He examines the great legacy of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, looks at some classic motorbikes made in Bristol and discovers the success of the Bristol brass industry which flourished in the 1700s. London Tim Wonnacott is in London's Covent Garden to put the capital on the Great Antiques Map of Britain. He meets locals with treasures that tell the tale of London's past, including a snuffbox made from the wood used in the original London Bridge, and some silver spoons created by a Victorian forger who was subsequently sentenced to death. Tim finds out about the age-old pursuit of mud larking on the shores of the River Thames, scales the Elizabeth Tower to hear Big Ben up close, and visits St Paul's Cathedral to see Wren's Great Model. Worcester Worcester proves to have an intriguing past and plenty of interesting antiques when Tim Wonnacott pitches up at a Flea Market and Collectors Fair. Local resident and antiques expert, Philip Serrell, drops in to show Tim some rare books about Worcester, while other locals bring such fascinating objects as a hand written letter from Elgar and a Royal Worcester piece made especially for Winston Churchill. Tim views a collection of mechanical music machines that have never been filmed before and finds out about the antique bells that ring in Worcester cathedral. Bakewell Although this area's history is steeped in agriculture, the industrial revolutions had an enormous impact. The antiques and collectables emanating from this rich and varied past place it firmly on the Great Antiques Map of Britain. Tim Wonnacott takes his vintage silver-rig to the Bakewell Food Festival in the heart of the glorious Derbyshire Peaks where locals have brought along their fascinating objects, including Victorian baking tins used by the alleged inventor of the famous Bakewell puddings, and antique wall brackets bought from the illustrious Chatsworth House estate. Tim goes deep underground in search of the precious mineral, Blue-John which is unique to the area, and investigates the story of a man who revolutionised fishing in the grounds of Haddon Hall. Cambridge Tim Wonnacott takes his old rig along to Cambridge, and sets up at the Town and Country Fair, where lots of eager owners have come along to show him their fascinating items, including fen skates, a vintage radio, and a collection of old bottles, some of which are surprisingly rare and valuable. Tim visits Cambridge Art School and hears about the work of its alumnus, the celebrated illus

    Tim Wannacott packs a mountain of entertainment into a DVD box which is an absolute delight for the followers of Bargain Hunt. The objects he comes across he describes in great detail, and his knowledge of Antiques is nothing short of amazing and makes for absolute entertainment and education. A really good addition to any DVD collection, and well and truly worth the money. You won't be dissapointed with it. DAVE COX
