In celebration of the Barbican's 'Magnificent Obsessions' exhibition, a show featuring the personal collections of some of the best-known names in the art world, we asked Londoners to send us a photo of their most obsessive collection.

Of all the weird, wacky and oddly wonderful pictures we received, we picked our favourite and five runners up. Warning: this slideshow contains dangerous amounts of useless bric-à-brac.
