HOUSEHOLDERS with collectable junk hidden away in lofts and garages are being urged to cash in through a new TV gameshow.

Trading Treasures is heading to Burnley and hoping to find contestants to take part in the BBC1 programme.

Researcher Laura Cockcroft said: "We are looking for people with interesting collectable junk that they might like to clear with the help of an expert from the world of antiques and collectables.

"The expert will value items, set a target and then contestants have to sell as much as possible at a car boot sale or antiques fair."

Anyone interested in taking part can contact Laura on 0207 633 2776 or email laura.cockcroft@lnn-tv.co.uk
