There's no denying Christina and JJ's camaraderie on The Travelling Auctioneers, which sees the duo and fellow experts Robin Johnson and Izzie Balmer take their travelling workshop on the road in the hopes of turning unwanted items into winning lots.
Christina and JJ clearly have a laugh behind the scenes and often share snaps from their travels on social media.
Alongside a photo of the pair posing in front of the iconic blue van, JJ penned: "Finishing up a busy week with my newest TV Best Friend, the fabulous @christinatrevanion. Met some lovely folk, fixed a few bits & pieces and had a wonderful laugh."
In another snap, the duo are giggling away as Christina points at JJ.
"'Pull My Finger'," JJ jokingly penned in the caption. "Oh very mature @christinatrevanion… well we did have a laugh on today's Travelling Auctioneer as we help an actual Clown clear out his House of Fun!"
It looks like the pair have become good friends since filming the show together as Christina referred to JJ as her "pal" in a post to Instagram. Sharing a behind-the-scenes photo of the pair beaming from ear to ear, Christina shared an insight into their friendship. "@jj.chalmers smile for the photo, look sensible and don't make me laugh. Oh damn it," she penned, adding a facepalming emoji. "Gorgeous couple of days filming #thetravellingauctioneers in stunning #Scotland with my pal."

Christina and Philip have been friends for years. The duo have teamed up on Bargain Hunt and Antiques Road Trip, and even took their talents to the stage in their 2023 live tour, Antiques and a Little Bit of Nonsense, which also featured Charles Hanson and Charlie Ross.
Christina, who has previously referred to Philip as "one of my dearest, most cherished pals", shared her appreciation for her co-star in a touching post marking his 70th birthday. Alongside a selfie of the pair posing in front of an idyllic seaside setting, the auctioneer penned: "One minute you're 20 in the 70's… and the next you're 70 in the 20's! Happiest of birthdays to the man, the myth, the legend…"
