Ms Trevanion, who runs Trevanion and Dean, in Station Road, Whitchurch, will be stepping into the shoes of Bargain Hunt presenter Tim Wonnacott.

Ms Trevanion, who has appeared on TV shows such as Antiques Road Trip, Bargain Hunt and Flog It, said: "While Tim was filming BBC1's Strictly Come Dancing late last year, a select group of Bargain Hunt's favourite faces were asked to step in. It was an absolute honour and also utterly terrifying."

The programme was filmed at Peterborough Antiques Fair last year.

Last week the house held a Valentine's Day auction.

Top price was taken by a Regency mantle timepiece by Ganthony of London, which attracted a bid of £2,000.

A silver gilt member's badge for the London Pitt Club, owned by a Whitchurch man, reached a price of £600.

The next auction is on March 14. For details call (01948) 800202.
