THE RECLAIMERS - TONIGHT BBC2 8.30PM
See the world of salvage exposed like never before - as dealers reveal all on camera. They deal (and agree to impossible deadlines), they travel (and nearly don't come back), they buy (and reveal trade secrets), they dismantle (and damage some of the kit), they restore (and make sure there is no blood left on things), they sell (and seem unaturally happy about dropping their prices) . . . it's all there.
OK, it's easy to be cynical . . . but full marks go to Wall To Wall TV who made the programme, to the dealers who were brave enough to stick their necks above the reclaimed parapet, and to BBC Two for commissioning it.
We hope The Reclaimers is a huge success and that this benefits the trade in general as well as the featured businesses.
Please feel free to add comments you have about the programme to the Salvo Forum 'The Reclaimers' trade page.
