Natasha Raskin Sharp has spent more than a decade cajoling Bargain Hunt contestants to aim high and broker lucrative deals so that they may walk away from the show with a coveted golden gavel. The presenter, who made her debut on the long-running BBC series in 2014, may be a daytime TV darling but tends to keep her home life notoriously private. As well as serving as an expert and one of the main presenters of Bargain Hunt, 37-year-old Natasha has made notable contributions to the likes of Antiques Road Trip , Flog It! and the now-defunct Baggage Battles.
Born in Glasgow, the star initially studied law at the University of Leeds before pivoting to a history of art degree. After briefly pursuing a career in fashion, the Scottish broadcaster began making a name by using her expertise to front various BBC shows.

Joe, a TV producer, has credits on Antiques Road Trip, its Celebrity spin-off and The Great Hotel Escape on Channel 4 . He has also contributed to the former beloved BBC One programme, The Big Painting Challenge.

"My partner and I are guilty of eating out too much,” she confessed. “Glasgow has so many great restaurants, too much of my spare time is spent eating delicious food .
