While TV shows evolve and digitalize more and more, with upcoming streaming sites like Netflix, they also stream more about antiques than ever before. They are perfect to gather some extra knowledge about the wonderful world of antiques. Unfortunately none of the 11 richest antique collectors in the world feature in a TV show for antique lovers, but they do have a whole lot of other experts!
Four Rooms
Do you have a piece of antique in the attic and do you want to know the value of it, and even sell it? In this show members of the public attempt to sell their antique pieces in exchange for a cash offer. The participants go to one or more of the four dealers, who sit in different rooms. Participants can opt not to sell it to just gain information from antique experts or can have bad luck underselling it. Everyone reveals their highest bid at the end of the show.
You can watch the show on Channel 4 or Netflix.
Bargain Hunt
Two teams, the reds and the blues, each consisting of two amateur collectors both get 300 pounds to start with. They have only got one hour to scour an antique fair. Several weeks later, the items will be sold at auctions. The team that makes the most profit -or the least loss- wins!

You can watch the back catalogue at 12:30 pm GMT most days on BBC One or the old episodes on iPlayer.
Escape to the Chateau
Watch how Dick Strawbridge and his wife Angel renovate and restore their 19th-century chateau in the Pays de la Loire region of France. This series is escapism at its finest.
