    I don't think so :cool:

    Whilst at Hemswell antiques centre on Sunday one of my first visitors was a presenter from UK TV's Bargain Hunt.


    I had 3 framed photographs on display.

    They had the dust and dirt I found them with, back in December.

    He asked how much the photographs were,he then said they reminded him of Bonnie & Clyde.

    When I told him the price he said he would think about it. hahahaha

    Comparing these two to online images I don't think they are but what do you think.

    If they are, then the price has just gone up:hilarious::hilarious:

    They're very Slavic looking, aren't they? Wonder if they're not brother and sister. (Or are those wedding rings?) Have you taken out of frames?

    He reminds me of some murderer I've seen in the past but I can't put my finger on it.

    The frames are filthy and the nails are very rusty.
    I might have a go at taking the backs off tomorrow, outside.

    It's the low brow and deep set eyes. A bit Neanderthal.

    Interesting how they used a mirror imaged for one of the photos so they would pair nicely. (And definitely not Bonnie & Clyde)

    1920s wedding photos maybe? Or engagement, since the clothes are informal. She has the proper black stockings and bound down bosoms. (never understood that bit of fashion, but whatever)

    I always expect a bid and that is why I price things accordingly.

    He always bids people on Bargain Hunt.

    I saw him before he saw me.

    He perhaps felt intimidated realising it was Davey from Antiquers which is more famous internationally than Bargain Hunt and he did not have cameras and crew to back him up.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    The photo with the fallen trees is wonderful!

    I could see how you might look at the fella and see someone who is a criminal.
    He gives off that appearance.
    The guy sort of looks like Clyde to me too from photos I have seen but it is doubtful.
    Quite a mystery to solve...

    Bonnie and Clyde they ain't, because that sure isn't Bonnie Parker.

    The Bargain Hunt guy figured out quickly that he was dealing with an ex-copper who had a few hundred antique addicts at his back and knew he was beaten.:wideyed::wideyed::wideyed:
