BBC Recruits Comic Collectors For Collectaholics

BBC Recruits Comic Collectors For CollectaholicsSo do you want to be on TV? Live in the UK? Don't mind the potential of being mocked for your comic collection?

Thn get in touch with RDF Television who are making a new series, Collectaholics, for BBC Two.

Presented by Mark Hill and Mel Giodroyc, Hill states;

If you're worried that the aim is to have a laugh at your expense, or not take you and your collection seriously, I can assure you that this isn't the case. As a diehard collector with over-flowing shelves of all manner of things myself, it would be a bit of 'the pot calling the kettle black'.
And, although financial value is always important, we want to explore the value of the stories behind the objects themselves – and what they mean to you.

However, the show's producers talk about helping to "curate" or "downsize" your collection, which smacks of it being one of those Hoarding Intervention shows.

Still, maybe you'd value that.
