It's your Bid first aired in 1998 as a 15 part series for Discovery Home & Leisure, presented by Judith Miller, that aimed to help the novice antique enthusiast develop the confidence to successfully take part in an auction.

Many people have at some point in their lives visited an auction but surrounded by lots of people, all who seem to know more than you do, auctions can become intimidating places. People genuinely worry that an inappropriate sneeze or even a scratch of the nose will result in them going home with an unwanted elks head or set of dining chairs.

   

Fortunately help is at hand in the shape of antiques expert Judith Miller. Each week the programme visits a different salesroom and with the help of the auctioneers, Judith provides some good advice for the auction novice while at the same time discovering some of the tricks of the trade from both buyers and sellers.
