BBC Antiques Expert Michael Baggott Dies at 65
Michael Baggott, the beloved antiques expert known for his role on BBC's 'Flog It!', passed away at 65 from a heart attack, following a series of health challenges including a stroke last October. In December, he shared harrowing details of his hospital experience at Good Hope Hospital in Birmingham, where he reported being left 'badly dehydrated' and 'dying of thirst' due to insufficient water intake. Despite expressing appreciation for the junior staff, he criticized senior management for their neglectful treatment, which he believed contributed to his worsening condition. His death was confirmed via a heartfelt social media post, eliciting an outpouring of condolences from fans and colleagues alike, who remembered him as a knowledgeable and passionate figure in the antiques community. Fellow antiques expert Charles Hanson paid tribute to Baggott, acknowledging his significant contributions and expertise. A memorial service is planned to honor his legacy in the coming weeks.
