AN antique shop welcomed a television crew with two celebrities to film an episode of a hit BBC Two show.  

Robert and Andrew Aindow, of Sleddall Hall Antiques Centre, in Wildman Street, Kendal, hosted an STV crew to film an episode of Celebrity Antiques Road Trip on August 2.

The brothers were accompanied by Bargain Hunt presenters Roo Irving and Izzie Balmer as well as celebrity stars Michael Brandon and Glynis Barber from 80s British TV crime drama series - Dempsey & Makepeace.

The popular BBC Two show, which has now filmed 12 seasons since 2011, sees antique experts on a road trip around the UK searching for treasures and competing to make the most money at auction.

On the show, Michael and Glynis go head-to-head with a rival antique expert in a series of challenges before seeing who will make the most money when they auction their goods.

Michael brought a vintage 1950s convector heater and a lamp with him whilst Glynis brought with her a copper tray.

Andrew said he thoroughly enjoyed helping to film the celebrity version of the Antiques Road Trip for the first time.

He said: “We had a really good day. It helped because we’d met both of the presenters previously so we were far more relaxed than what we would have been if we were meeting them for the first time.

“Michael and Glynis both had a really good knowledge of the items and showed a great interest in them.

“It was a really professional setup, they had lots of different camera operators. There was also a lot of interest from passersby."
