Norfolk friends to appear on Bargain Hunt Christmas special

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 20 Oct, 12:02 · Archive

Two friends from Attleborough in Norfolk will feature on Bargain Hunt's Christmas special airing in December.

Ruth Cator and Vanessa Beales, who work together at an optician's in Attleborough, will feature on Bargain Hunt's Christmas special airing in December. The pair, aged 50 and 54, filmed their episode at the Norfolk Showground earlier this month with presenter Roo Irvine and antiques expert Kate Bliss.

Bargain Hunt sees teams search for antiques and collectables with expert guidance before their chosen items are sent to auction to see if they can turn a profit. The friends have been searching for bargains together for a decade and regularly browse charity shops and car boot sales, selling their finds on Vinted.

Vanessa Beales said they enjoyed the experience. 'One thing is certain, we had a fantastic time on Bargain Hunt and loved every minute of the television adventure,' she said. 'Although we are both bargain hunters in our spare time, taking part in Bargain Hunt was something completely different from our usual trips to car boot sales and charity shops.' Their chosen items later went under the hammer at Richard Winterton Auctioneers in Lichfield, Staffordshire.
