Take part in a new auction programme
One-of-a-kind items to be featured on the show filming in Newbury
NEW TV series The Great Auction Showdown, with antiques expert Paul Martin, is filming in Newbury and is looking for locals to take part.
The producers are on the hunt for individuals to visit Newbury Town Hall on Monday, August 15, and Wednesday, August 17, with fascinating, precious, unusual or one-of-a-kind items to be featured on the show.
Each week, Paul Martin will go head-to-head with a rival expert as they compete to make the most at auction in a fun, yet fiercely competitive new format.
Filmed throughout the country, Paul and his rival will battle it out in the auction house to get the best prices and win The Great Auction Showdown.
Executive producer Rosy Marshall McCrae said: “This series will be so much fun and we really want to speak to members of the public in
Newbury who maybe have a beloved or curious object they want to know the value of, or fancy making some cash at auction.
“We’d love to see unusual or one-of-a-kind pieces and can’t wait to see what
precious antiques the area holds with its rich history.”
Mr Martin said: “I can’t wait to get on the road, meet local people and see what incredible items I’m sure we’ll find.
“This series is a competition – and one that I definitely want to win each week – so if you have something quirky, historical or exciting at home that you think could just be worth something, come on down.”
The Great Auction Show
down is filming at Newbury Town Hall, Market Place, between 10am and 5pm on the Monday and Wednesday.
The public are welcome to pop down to Newbury Town Hall with their unwanted antiques for a free valuation from Paul and the team. Walk-ins and spectators are also welcome.
