Johnny Vegas Antiques Show Returns to Dagfields Centre
Filming for the second season of Johnny Vegas' Little Shop of Antiques is taking place at Dagfields Crafts and Antiques Centre, located near Nantwich, Cheshire. To facilitate the production, Mat Capper, who operates a bike sales and repair shop, vacated his unit after approximately nine months, relocating to a smaller space nearby. The show, which broadcasts on Quest TV, showcases Vegas as he opens a pop-up store named Vintage Vegas, featuring unique collectibles. The first series was shot in the adjacent unit, previously occupied by a fireplace business, but moving Capper’s bike shop proved more practical for the second season. Jon Egglestone, owner of Dusty Gems Interiors, participated in the first series and noted that the show increased foot traffic and recognition for him, even internationally. Filming for the second series commenced in May and is set to air in the summer.
