Episode 8
The third leg of our swirling Road Trip takes in even more of Yorkshire with auctioneers Charles Hanson and Natasha Raskin Sharp. They are touring from the east of Yorkshire to the west in the comfort of the 1932 Riley, the oldest automobile to ever feature on the show.
Charles gets up to more chaos with jammed drawers, plays cricket in a shop and tries on fireman's hats. But his search turns up a his 'n' hers item in a pair of Edwardian scent bottles, and he continues his Georgian passion with an original scent phial. But his big gamble is an art deco light fitting with a very large price ticket. Will his vision reap rewards at auction? All the shopping works up his appetite, and what better local delicacy to chomp on than the humble Yorkshire pud. Charles discovers the Georgian origins of this golden turret of baked goodness.
Natasha is on a mission to buy well at low prices, and she succeeds with a super-cheap 19th-century wine glass and an on-trend pair of Danish mid-century candle holders. Our good friends giggle their way from Beverley to Bradford, but Natasha is more than able to keep an unruly Charles in check in the very delicate surrounds of an antiques shop. Natasha finds time to visit Leeds, the city where it is thought the first ever moving pictures were created by a brilliant Frenchman, half a decade before Thomas Edison and the Lumiere Brothers.
Will Yorkshire prove fruitful for Natasha and prevent Charles coming out on top?
