and currently one of my wife's favourite shows :)

ttvdb url: http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=259829
BBC site for the show: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00xgqvf

It is entirely unrelated to the suggested duplicate - the venerable & gentile "Antiques Roadshow"
(ttvdb: http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=83774; BBC show site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006mj2y)
which is now in its 33rd season. They famously only politely suggest an insurance value on heirlooms.

Instead it's a spin off of "Bargain Hunt"
(ttvdb: http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=84223; BBC show site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006nb9z)
a daytime show where members of the public buy antiques in shops and try to make a profit at an auction.

I suggest you remove the duplicate marker and unlock for community edits.

You might also consider a merge with "Celebrity Antiques Road Trip", although I'd say that was separate.
ttvdb: http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=253098
bbc: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b016rcq5/episodes/guide
It is closely related with a slightly different format. I'm not sure which came first and I think the BBC consider both as separate ongoing series (see separate links to show sites).
The celebrity version teams sends two celebrities with an expert each on a single day of shopping then an auction.
The regular version has only the experts, but they tour a region over 5 episodes.

Thanks,

Colin

Thanks for posting, I can't see any reason why this shouldn't be allowed as a standalone series. I've unlocked it for you.

Also do you have any information on the "Reversions" seasons that BBC list? Trying to work out where they would fit (eg specials or in that season)

Not come across them using that term, but they do sometimes seem to broadcast re-edited/extended versions of already broadcast shows. Particularly daytime/reality shows
such as "Animal Park" where viewers may wonder what happened to that lion cub which they didn't think would survive etc. They come back later and put the whole story together.

In general, may just mean broadcasting recut versions of off-peak shows to cheaply fill airtime without doing straight repeats.

Thanks,

Colin

Yeah that was my suspicion, like Grand Designs/Grand Designs Revisited. The term was on the bbc website:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00xgqvf/episodes/guide

Two examples:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01hz9rh
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00rv9t2

Anyways we'll have to look at that when someone wants to add them.
