Episode 13 of 20

Antiques experts travel across the country, competing to make a profit at auction. At the halfway stage of their trip, Paul and Margie scour Scarborough for antiques.

Paul Laidlaw and Margie Cooper have reached the half way point on their humdinger of a journey. The rain fails to dampen spirits in Scarborough but the roof on their convertible Morris Minor remains firmly shut.

On the way to an auction in Rotherham, Paul indulges his top two passions of militaria and collecting as he hears about a hero of the First World War who continued to spend a fortune on collectibles while under fire in the trenches. Margie heads to Whitby to find out about local sailors who went to sea in birds' nests.

A big drum, a little horseshoe and a World War Two tunic are amongst the interested lots going under the gavel. But has Paul gambled too much of his kitty?
