Toyah Willcox v Kiki Dee
Rock chicks Toyah Willcox and Kiki Dee search an antique centre in Farnham, Surrey, for treasures to sell at an auction in London.
Rock chicks Toyah Wilcox and Kiki Dee have shared the same bill in the past, but never for bargain hunting. The two women, both queens of the music business for over a quarter of a century, try to prove who has the best talent at spotting bargains.
They both search an antique centre in Farnham, Surrey for treasures which will then be sold at an auction in Chiswick, London.
Toyah is partnered in her shopping by an old friend, John Wain, who she first met when he was impersonating her at a nightclub. Kiki is accompanied by Jenny, one of her oldest friends. Presenter Tim Wonnacott takes time to discover what the women collect or are interested in. Toyah admits to a love of Troika, so Tim discusses the St Ives pottery with her and shows her some examples of an earlier Cornish potter, Bernard Leach.
Kiki brings along a delicate linen tablecloth, made by her grandmother, a haberdasher. Tim shows her a piece of needlework done around 1900 form a kit sold by William Morris & Co, which is very collectable.
