Synopsis
London regional show apparently similar to Bargain Hunt but - get this! - actually predating it by a good twenty months.
Trivia
Several ITV regions ended up producing their own versions of BSC before the ITV plc merger. Helen McDermott hosted the Anglia version, Vicky Locklin and Judith Michael hosted the Tyne Tees version, Gaynor Barnes hosted the Yorkshire version, Ted Robbins hosted the Granada version and Julie Peasgood hosted the Meridian version.
