Bargain Hunt host Natasha Raskin Sharp issued a message to viewers of the BBC show in a recently-aired episode after an antique jug sold at auction for almost £400,000.
The presenter, 36, fronted a repeated episode of the show that aired on Thursday afternoon (March 23) and at one point she was joined by auctioneer Charles Hanson, 45.
She revealed that he'd brought along a "special object," which she said appeared to be a teapot at first glance. She later said it was actually a "rare Chinese wine ewer".
