Antiques and a Little Bit of Nonsense!

About

Confessions of an antiques expert! TV stars team up for stage show – and secrets will be revealed!

Four of the country’s favourite television personalities from the world of antiques entertain you with tales from the saleroom, television and beyond. The enormous variety of their experiences range from selling chickens and cattle to priceless Chinese artefacts and to multi-million-pound cars.

Hear how Philip Serrell started out on his auctioneering career, how the ebullient and eccentric Charles Hanson set up a thriving business and how Charlie Ross ended up flying across the world to sell ‘old bangers’. The three of them will (we hope) be kept in check by the delightful and effervescent Christina Trevanion.

In this no-holds-barred stage show, the four auctioneers plan to share secrets of the antiques world – and themselves. Plus, they will answer questions put to them by the audience.

Topics will include the weird and wonderful things they have sold at auction, the dream lot they would love to sell and their guilty pleasures. They will also reveal how their TV work blossomed and which celebrities they’ve enjoyed working with the most.

And from Gyles Brandreth… “My idea of heaven – the Fab Four of the world of antiques hit the road: they’re so funny as well as being the most brilliant bargain hunters & natural entertainers. My kind of show. Vintage! 5 stars. Catch them if you can. (I’m not being paid for this: I just love what they do!)”
