Quest has an auction house for every hour, but The Repair Shop is the one to stay up for

Quest’s primetime on Wednesday is a run of the same idea: Antiques Road Trip at 7pm, The Yorkshire Auction House at 8pm, a Derbyshire Auction House at 9pm, and The Repair Shop to finish at 10pm. The Repair Shop is the pick. The “New” label on the 9pm hour is the evening’s novelty, but not its best programme.

The Repair Shop is a documentary and reality title with Jay Blades and Will Kirk attached, and it runs at an easy pace. Its opposition at ten is BBC News at Ten and a lot of crime, so it has a quiet field. Four stars.

New: The Derbyshire Auction House has appeared on just two days in the window, and it sits directly after The Yorkshire Auction House, which gives the evening an obvious shape: one format, two counties. Whether it earns the slot is a matter of taste, but it is the one piece of the schedule that isn’t a rerun of something the channel has shown most days. It meets Who Do You Think You Are? on BBC One and Max Payne on 5Star. Three stars.

Antiques Road Trip opens primetime at 7pm. It is a factual series that began on BBC Two and Quest has it on in this slot every weeknight, so you will know what you are getting. Three stars. The Yorkshire Auction House at 8pm gets two, mostly because Quest also ran it at 6pm, so this is its second outing on the same evening.

The daytime is the usual rotation, with Salvage Hunters and its spin-offs taking most of the hours before lunch, and Aussie Gold Hunters and Outback Opal Hunters after that. How Do They Do It? bookends the day, at midnight and again at 11pm. None of it changes the verdict: this is a channel built on repetition, and the evening’s single decision is whether the fresh label at 9pm is enough.
