Filming with Paul Martin

Channel 5 visited Larkin’s Antiques and Derwentside Shopping Mill while filming The Great Auction Showdown, presented by antiques expert Paul Martin.

Paul and the production crew spent a full day filming at the Belper showroom, selecting items to take to auction. A clip filmed at Larkin’s was also chosen for the programme’s opening credits.
