Bargain Hunt star Christina Trevanion is one of the BBC show's regular presenters and her extensive knowledge of antiques and fine art has been invaluable.

When she is not busy filming, Christina is extremely busy running her own auction house, based in Whitchurch, Shropshire.

She and her staff host monthly auctions of fine art, antiques and collectables. Christina's role is managing partner, auctioneer and valuer, after first opening the business in 2014.

She went on to become the sole owner four years later, when she bought the shares of her former business partner, Aaron Dean.
