STV Studios secures major commission for hit auction shows

Warner Bros Discovery UK & Ireland has commissioned STV Studios Factual to produce 36 new hour-long episodes across its successful Auction House franchise.
The bumper order includes 18 new episodes of The Yorkshire Auction House – the original show in the franchise, which first launched in 2021. Auctioneer Angus Ashworth will be back in 2026 for a seventh series of the show. He’ll travel across the country, valuing his clients’ collectables and curios, before turning their unwanted items into life-changing sums of cash.
Celebrity Yorkshire Auction House has also been recommissioned for a sixth series (6 x 60’), which will see UK celebrities open their doors to Angus, as they ask him to declutter their homes of family heirlooms and once-cherished keepsakes from their glittering careers. But with the stars setting sky-high expectations, Angus is under pressure to deliver from the rostrum. The previously commissioned fifth series of Celebrity Yorkshire Auction House launches on Really on Monday 27 October.
Antiques dealer Irita Marriott is back for a third series of The Derbyshire Auction House, with 12 new episodes set to air in 2026 – the largest order of the show to date. One of the few women in the UK to run her own auction house, Irita will once again be giving viewers a behind-the-scenes look at her South Derbyshire business as she takes on her biggest ever house clearance jobs, while hearing the heartwarming stories of people selling their antiques and collectables.
The shows will move from Really to sister channel Quest for their new series.
In summary, the three new Auction House series commissioned from STV Studios Factual are:
- The Yorkshire Auction House S7 (18 x 60’)
- Celebrity Yorkshire Auction House S6 (6 x 60’)
- The Derbyshire Auction House S3 (12 x 60’)
Craig Hunter, creative director of STV Studios Factual, said: “The Auction House franchise has become a cornerstone of STV Studios Factual’s output in recent years and the recommissioning of all three series is testament to the fact that viewers have taken these shows – and Angus and Irita – to their hearts.
“This bumper order is a strong vote of confidence in our expertise from the Nations and Regions and we’re excited to take the franchise to new heights in 2026.”
