Tuesday 24 May
8:00pm - 9:00pm
Channel 4
1/8, series 1
Antiques Roadshow meets Dragons' Den meets Deal or No Deal with four experts competing to buy collectable items. The twist is that having examined, say, a mutilated Francis Bacon painting, they each retire to a room where the painting's owner negotiates a price with them in turn. Once he's refused an offer, he goes to the next room and hopes for a better deal there. The negotiations range from a bit dull to cringe-making, but the items are fantastic (no chipped teapots here) and judge Jeff Salmon - a flamboyant, outspoken character who on occasion even uses dice to make his decision - makes great TV. Could be a grower.

Just watched the first part of this and it is one of the most compelling and exciting things I have seen for a long time. Well worth watching even if you are not that interested in art and unusual stuff, but who isn't?8:00pm - 9:00pm

Emma Hawkins. Nom nom!
Have to agree and, must say, like the leather trousers too.;)An interesting concept, think this could turn into a 'must not miss' programme.
As to the Norman Foster table, thought the one they had on show (in one of the dealers rooms)far better.
