Bargain Hunt is a jewell in the BBC's daytime schedule, running since 2000!

Originally presented by David Dickinson, the BBC One show sees a red team and a blue team buy items at an antique fair for a budget and then try to make a profit at auction (having personally been on the show I can testify that it isn't easy!).

There have been various small format tweaks over the years but essentially it remains the same show. We recently had a special episode called erm "Barking Hunt" which celebrated the 200th anniversary of the RSPCA. Filmed at Shepton Mallet antiques fair in Somerset, presenter Christina Trevanion was top dog, while experts Caroline Hawley and Thomas Forrester aimed to keep the teams and their pets in check. The red and blue teams were joined pet pooches aiming to sniff out a bargain.

Here's when Bargain Hunt is on next, the locations, who's presenting and who the experts are…
