Ayrshire businesses have featured in the latest episode of BBC series Antiques Road Trip.
Broadcast on Tuesday, February 11, Ayrshire’s rich heritage was explored by antiques experts Phil Serrell and Natasha Raskin Sharp as they travelled across the county from Largs to Mauchline.
Featured in the programme are Narducci Antiques in Largs, Dunlop Dairy in Dunlop, Payne & Daughters in Kilmarnock, Nae-sae-new in Mauchline and Irvine Valley Antiques in Crookedholm.
Despite some suspect pronunciations of Ayrshire towns, the episode explores different areas of Ayrshire’s heritage as Phil and Natasha go in search of antiques across the county.
Entitled Cauldrons, Curling Stones and Dunlop, the programme is episode two of series 30 of the popular BBC One day time series which celebrates its 15th anniversary in 2025.
The show pips two antiques experts against one another as they go on a road trip in search of the best antiques to sell at auction.
Posting on Facebook ahead of the broadcast, Payne & Daughters said: “We know you’ve all been waiting for this one. Catch our appearance on Antiques Road Trip tomorrow on BBC 1 at 3.45pm. Tune in and enjoy the ride to see what treasures Phil picked up.”
After viewing episode one on Monday, Nae-sae-new posted on Facebook saying: “Antiques Road Trip today, did anyone watch the first episode on BBC One and spot our Rowan at the end in the highlights for tomorrow’s show?
“So looking forward to tomorrow’s episode.”
The programme description for Cauldrons, Curling Stones and Dunlop on BBC said: “Scotland’s wonderful west coast awaits antiques experts Phil Serrell and Natasha Raskin Sharp.
“In the village of Mauchline, Natasha flips to the dark side and uncovers a cauldron, but can it conjure up a profit? Phil hopes to be on target with some curling stones steeped in Scottish history.
“In a break from the shopping, there’s downtime for the pair at a dairy farm. Phil is in his element with the gorgeous Dunlop cows. He and Natasha ‘whey’ in deep as they discover the secret to the area’s infamous cheese.
“Back at the shops, there are mannequin heads and maps to pick up for Tash, while Phil spots some must-have boat oars. But who will be the big cheese when the auction comes around?”
