Bargain Hunt expert Caroline Hawley has been offering her antiques knowledge to the red and blue teams on the BBC show for years - but she's also an incredible antiques shop owner too
Bargain Hunt 's Caroline Hawley is not just a whizz on the show, helping the red and blue teams uncover hidden treasures, but she's also a savvy businesswoman with her own antiques shop in Yorkshire.
She recounted the moment she snagged a bargain, saying: "I turned to the guy on the stand and I asked how much he wanted for it. He gave a little shake of his head, and told me, with a beautiful Yorkshire accent: "Ay'll be wanting four quid for that, love, it's Dior, tha' knows!" Suffice it to say, it came home with me."
However, destiny had other plans. After leaving the hustle and bustle of London, she opened her first shop, Penny Farthing Antiques, in South Cave. She and John have been happily married for over a decade and organise four major auctions a year at Beverley Racecourse. They also offer valuation services and advice to collectors. John also used to work in his father's antique shop back in 1966, and so has plenty of experience.
