The Travelling Auctioneers

I am a fan of most antique programmes but this one is just feeble. My favourite used to be The Antique Road Trip but over the past few years it has got worse and worse. Seasoned experts who actually know things have been steadily replaced by shrieking show offs whose main attribute seems to be that they are "young". This new show is blighted by the same affectation. The forced "relationship " between the two hosts is just cringe worthy. The worst part is the outdoor auction. A feeble gathering of disinterested punters sit there mute while all the bids are either online or "on the book" . Obviously they are presumably using a tie up with an external auction operation. So what's the point of the outdoor auction? Dreadful, unwatchable rubbish.
