BBC One daytime format Shift The Thrift, presented by Gavin & Stacey star Joanna Page, has secured a second series. Applications are now open - for details on how to apply, click here.
Each episode sees two people go head-to-head in a race against the clock to turn their purchases into as much profit as possible. Contestants are challenged to uncover charity shop gems, transform them with flair, and sell them in high-energy, live-streamed auctions.
From vintage bric-a-brac to upcycled denim, the competition culminates in the ultimate test of their selling skills, with profits going to the contestants’ charity shop of choice, and they’ll be guided along the way by avid thrifter Joanna Page
Each episode begins in a different UK town, where Joanna and two guest experts explore the local charity shop scene and introduce the teams to a custom shopping list - which always includes an item to be refashioned and a localised scavenger hunt challenge.
Participants then each customise one item with the help of some of Britain’s best social media upcyclers and prepare a sales pitch, before taking part in a fast-paced, live-streamed auction.
Shift The Thrift is available now on BBC iPlayer.
