Journalists Grace Dent and Amol Rajan, with the help of experts Catherine Southon and James Braxton, search East Anglia for profitable antiques. In a Jaguar and TVR, the route to auction in Eastbourne is packed with surprises at every turn - from the forgotten Victorian electrical pioneer who gave us the toaster to the Essex town which changed its name to a spice that was once grown there.
