Popular antiques TV show films episode in Lancaster

A popular antiques TV show has filmed an episode in Lancaster.

Renowned expert, David Harper, went along to the GB Antiques Centre on Lancaster Leisure Park on Wyresdale Road, to film for a new series of Antiques Road Trip, which will air next year.

This popular BBC1 show sees Britain’s best loved antiques experts travelling around the UK in classic cars.

They 'Road Trip' in pairs as they visit antiques shops, markets, and car boot sales, buying items that they eventually take to auction in the hope of selling them for a profit.

If they succeed, the proceeds are donated to Children In Need.

It’s a closely guarded secret what items were bought, so viewers will have to wait until the programme is aired later in the year to find out exactly what happened.

Owner of GB Antiques, Jimmy Blackburn, said: ‘’We had a fabulous weekend.

‘’We spent two days filming for the new series. My lips are sealed as to what exactly went on and what he bought, but we had a great day together!’’

GB Antiques Centre is the country’s biggest indoor antiques and furniture centre, attracting 220,000 visitors every year, and housing around 120 individual dealers.
