Executive producer Rosy Marshall McCrae said: “This series will be so much fun and we really want to speak to members of the public in Glasgow who maybe have a beloved or curious object they want to know the value of, or fancy making some cash at auction. We’d love to see unusual or one-of-a-kind pieces and can’t wait to see what precious antiques the area holds with its rich history.”

Paul Martin said: “I can’t wait to get on the road, meet local people and see what incredible items I’m sure we’ll find. This series is a competition – and one that I definitely want to win each week! – so if you have something quirky, historical or exciting at home that you think could just be worth something, come on down!”

The Great Auction Showdown is filming at Pollokshields Burgh Hall between 10am-4.30pm on Wednesday and Thursday.
