Celebrity Antiques Road Trip’s full line-up revealed – including EastEnders legends, Strictly faves and Loose Women | The Sun
CELEBRITIES are ready to hit the road for the latest season of the Antiques Road Trip, and fans will be shocked by some of the participants.
The twelfth series of the hit BBC show is coming back to screens next week, and viewers can expect to be entertained by Love Island stars and Strictly dancers alike.
The Sun previously revealed that TOWIE's very own Gemma Collins is one of the famous faces that will be taking part in the show.
She is pairing up with Radio 1 presenter and DJ Melvin Odoom to trawl through antique fairs in the hope of making some more dosh for second hand items.
Another surprising couple making an appearance on the celebrity special are Love Island winners Davide and Ekin-Su.
The pair will be going head-to-head as they swap the villa for valuations, competing with each other to nab the most expensive antiques.

He joked about their "healthy competition", saying: "It was such a pleasure to be part of Celebrity Antiques Road Trip – from the nostalgic feeling of putting myself into an antique car, through to the fun side of buying and selling antiques.
"There was healthy competition between Ekin and I, and we had lots of fun as we supported each other through the experience. I learned a lot about antiques and how appearances can be deceiving; something may look like it could be worth a lot, but it may just be more sentimental value."
Joining them in the all star line up is Strictly Come Dancing pro Amy Dowden, former contestant Sara Davies, and 1980s popstar pals Samantha Fox and Sinitta.
Sinitta joked that she felt like "pop music's answer to Thelma and Louise" while driving through country lanes in the vintage car.
