Wetherby 21
Caroline learns about 16th-century cheeses and tastes a traditional Yorkshire dish, dock pudding.
Presenter and Yorkshire lass Caroline Hawley celebrates some of the region鈥檚 finest fare by eating dock pudding. Traditionally eaten at Easter, the savoury dish is made of sweet dock leaves, oatmeal, onions, butter and seasoning, and cooked with bacon and potatoes. She also visits Leeds University's library to see what鈥檚 believed to be the oldest culinary book ever written in the English language - and it鈥檚 all about cheese!
In Wetherby, two teams have an appetite for bargains in the company of their experts Philip Serrell and Jonathan Pratt. With Phil, it鈥檚 university friends Kieran and Amy, and with JP, it鈥檚 engaged couple Aiden and Courtney.
Amy spots an old wooden barrel, which Phil identifies as a 鈥榗ostrel鈥�, used by workers to drink from during harvest time. Meanwhile, Courtney has a soft spot for a vintage frog dish. JP admits 'it鈥檚 a bit of a giggle', but Aiden tells them to hop it!
Ripon is the destination for today鈥檚 auction, with the teams鈥� items going under David Elstob鈥檚 hammer. Only the bidders can decide which duo is going home with the most profit. And will anyone get a golden gavel?
