While competing against James Braxton on a previous episode of , Christina Trevanion became irritated when her fellow antiques expert attempted to sneak a peek at her carefully chosen items for auction. The BBC star, who turns 44 today (June 12), has been an expert on the programme since 2014 and has regularly gone up against James, who joined the cast in 2016.

The pair kicked off their trip in Levenshulme, Manchester, before heading to Merseyside for auction. Ahead of the auction, Christina snapped at James after she spotted him attempting to spy on her items. Narrator Tim Wonnacott observed the playful dynamic: "With James's shopping done, it's time to torment Christina. She's discovered another shed and Baz's son, Richard."

James teased his co-star about her hunt for treasures in a supposedly damp shed, quipping: "Is it dry in there? It's not wet?" To which Christina sharply retorted: "It's perfectly dry, yes! There's galvanised ladders in here too."

Continuing the "torment", James pretended to be enthralled by the furniture, exclaiming: "Oh galvanised ladders? We're moving in. It's like a history of ladders here isn't it?".

But as James noticed Christina was concealing a particular object, he probed: "Got a nice pub table there... oh what's that Christina?"

Defending her find, Christina briskly snapped: "No! Nothing. Nothing! Go away!".

James couldn't resist teasing her further, pretending to spot a lamp as he remarked: "Nice anglepoise. They sell quite well those... but make sure it stays in the correct position. So many of them sort of move around. £30."

Desperate for James to leave and safeguard her secret, Christina begged: "Do they?"

The irritated star then issued a final response, demanding: "Please go away!".

James chuckled at her frustration, cheerily declaring: "I'm going away. Good luck."

Christina's fascination with antiques started in childhood, tagging along to auctions with her parents, where her mother Hazel's enthusiasm for collectables influenced her appreciation for vintage items and their stories.

In 2014, Christina channelled her lifelong passion into a successful business venture, launching Trevanion Auctioneers & Valuers. Her expertise in antiques was acknowledged seven years ago when she joined the prestigious National Association of Valuers and Auctioneers (NAVA).
