Episode 23 of 25

Antiques hunters Margie Cooper and Paul Martin head west in search of treasure. Paul buys something no pirate should be without, and Margie is drawn to pieces of silver.

Dealers Paul Martin and Margie Cooper are heading in a westerly direction in their elegant red Jaguar, and this time they are scouring the countryside of Devon for all manner of antiques.

Two auctions down and one expert is confident in their unassailable lead, though their rival has a strategy they believe will prove victorious.

Paul gets swept up in the romance of the east with a hanging lightshade and buys an item that no self-respecting pirate should be without. Margie’s magpie eyes focus in on something she is certain will make a profit at auction.

Margie takes time out from shopping to try her hand at crafting some local pottery, with hilarious results. Meanwhile, Paul visits a local fishing village transformed by a very forward-thinking woman.

As Margie and Paul cruise through the Cornish countryside, only one thing is on their mind – the third auction of this trip. Will one expert’s lead be in question?
