Raj Bisram and Catherine Southon begin a new antiquing adventure, each with £200 in their pockets. On this leg they kick off in Cambridge and end at an auction in Beccles, Suffolk.
Catherine detours to Prickwillow, Cambridgeshire, to find out the centuries-old battle to control nature and drain 400,000 hectares of land, known as the Fens. Raj heads to Thetford in Norfolk to learn all about one of the most radical thinkers and writers of the 1700s, who went on to influence both the American and French revolutions.
Catherine falls for an 18th-century silk tapestry and discovers a delightful Victorian letter seal. Meanwhile, Raj punts for a Francis Flint print and some silver candelabras. In a competitive race to be crowned winner of the first leg, will it be Queen Catherine or King Raj?
