The Antiques Riviera is a six-part Channel 4 series that escapes to the beautiful south coast of Devon, helping sellers looking to showcase their fortunes.
A treasure trove and meeting place for antique traders, this coastal corner of Britain has long been a popular destination for buyers and sellers. In a new series, produced by STV Studios Factual (Antiques Road Trip, The Yorkshire Auction House), the Antiques Riviera brings the wonderful world of antiques to screen following a colourful cast of expert traders and local dealers.
Each hour-long episode will welcome a new seller who is looking to turn their items into cash.
By offering their heirlooms and antiques to dealers up and down the Devon coastline, sellers hope they will leave with as much money as possible to fund their dreams – whether that’s a once in a lifetime holiday, deposit for their first home, or even a wedding.
“The antiques capital of the UK”
Viewers will be treated to an escapist journey through the picturesque Devon villages and towns of ‘The Antiques Riviera’, as expert dealers reveal their tips and tricks to finding hidden valuables that could make sellers a life changing profit.
Look out on screen for local Devon sites and communities in Brixham, Ashburton, Newton Abbot, Totnes and more.
“Devon didn’t just make production easy; it made it a joy. It’s been a privilege to showcase such a special place and we can’t wait for audiences to see it.”
