The duo will be joining forces for The Travelling Auctioneers, a new BBC One show which will follow Christina and Will as they journey around the UK in their mobile auction house and workshop.

Along the way, they will stop off to help families unearth unwanted items that could earn them some serious cash at auction.

Christina will be using her industry knowledge to help advise them, while Will will use his restoration know-how to make sure these hidden treasures are in the best condition possible before they go up for auction.

“It’s really exciting to be a part of such an innovative new series and working alongside Will,” Christina said.

“Whether it’s a cellar, a barn, a loft, or the back of a cupboard, I’m really looking forward to uncovering the hidden treasures so many of us have in our homes, and giving them a new lease of life – while making the world of auctions and restoration accessible to as many people as possible.”
