Episode 16

It’s a brand new trip and there’s a brand new expert. The newbie is London-based porcelain dealer Serhat Ahmet, who joins a doyenne of the road trip, Christina Trevanion, for a jaunt around the antiques emporia of Wales and the Midlands. They kick off in north Wales in their rather glamorous Porsche Speedster.

It’s all uncharted territory for Serhat as he gets his hands on a conveyance for dollies and one piece of pottery that has Christina a little jealous. But she manages a scoop of her own, picking up a last-minute purchase that might be a lot older and a lot more valuable than it first appears.

On their travels, Serhat takes a trip to a particularly famous village that brings a touch of the Italian Riviera to the west coast of Wales, while Christina heads to the Isle of Anglesey to discover how an ancient method of making a commonplace culinary ingredient has made a comeback on the coast.

Then it’s off to auction in Bolton to find out if Serhat’s nerves can handle the excitement.
