A Spitfire, a penguin and whisky have brought a beloved slice of tea time television to Kent.

BBC One hit Antiques Road Trip is heading to a host of towns around the county, including Ashford, Deal and Maidstone.

From Monday, February 3, antiques expert Raj Bisram, from Cranbrook, will be setting off with Natasha Raskin-Sharp in a 1960s Sunbeam classic car to bag some antique bargains.

In Maidstone a 1930s silver plated penguin picks up a profit, while a whisky noggin in Ashford proves to be a gamble.

A noggin is used for serving individual portions of whisky.

Tune in between February 3 and February 7 to see how the pair do with a 300-year-old oak coffer they find in Deal.

When Raj and Natasha aren't hunting for old wares, they stop off to restore a Spitfire at Biggin Hill Memorial Museum, near Bromley.
