BBC Antiques Road Trip expert rages at co-star as host forced to issue apology

presenter Natasha Raskin Sharp was forced to apologise to co-star Paul Laidlaw after the pair were caught in a heated exchange.

In a previous episode of the BBC show, the antique experts found themselves in picturesque York, battling through some unexpected hurdles.

They were en route to an auction in East Anglia when they faced complications with their classic mode of transport.

Tim Wonnacott, the show's narrator, humorously admitted to viewers: "Now, usually at this point we feature shots of a classic car whizzing through some lovely landscapes. Sorry!"

Following this admission, the camera switched to show Paul irately inspecting the open bonnet of the car, demanding: "What did you do with the car yesterday?"

With visible remorse, Natasha confessed: "What? Well who was driving? Oh, I was driving it, wasn't I? Sorry," only for Paul to snap: "The car was fine!"

Despite earlier noticing an issue, as Natasha recounted, "Do you know what, it was making the odd squeak. I'm not going to lie. It was sort of err, err, err, err," Tim couldn't resist commenting on the situation, chuckling that the noise was simply part of "Part of its Germanic charm!"

It comes after when he discovered a vintage camera that fetched an astonishing £20,000 at auction, marking the show's highest profit ever.

While hunting for hidden treasures in an antique shop in Margate, Kent, the expert stumbled upon the rare find priced at a mere £60.

After an extensive search, Paul zeroed in on the vintage camera, leading to a negotiation over the price. He proposed: "In your cabinet over there, optical instrument... £75 on that I bid you £50."

To which the shopkeeper responded: "Give me £60 and I'll shake your hand but I'm not doing any better than that, I'm afraid."

Later in the episode, the auction kicked off with an impressive opening bid of £1,000 and escalated quickly, leading Kate to observe: "They're not messing around."

As the auction soared past the £10,000 mark, it was clear that this item was truly exceptional. The hammer finally came down on an astonishing £20,000 bid.

A thrilled Paul exclaimed: "I'm over the moon. I am genuinely flabbergasted," to which Edward added: "Most items in this sale make between £50 and £500, so £20,000 is staggering, wonderful."
