Antiques Road Trip

Episode 11 (23x11)

:

Seasoned antiquer and auctioneer Charles Hanson accompanies Ochuko Ojiri on his Road Trip debut. A dealer, gallery owner and vintage enthusiast from London, Ochuko loves 20th century art, but what will he be able to acquire with a modest starting sum of £200? This treasure-hunting tour kicks off in Yorkshire, with our experts behind the wheel of a 1970s open-topped Triumph Spitfire. Their joint aim is to buy antiques that will make a profit when sold at auction - no mean feat! Charles finds an item that promises to bring joy to the home, while Ochuko plumps for a sleepy Japanese poodle. There is still time, however, for our experts to visit Hull, where they walk in the footsteps of a rugby league trailblazer and learn how a trawler disaster inspired a group of activists who would go on to become known as the Headscarf Heroes.
