Episode 3 of 25

In Yorkshire, Roo learns about Victorian loos while David gets very excited about a vintage watch. Two brooches and a wooden cat go under the gavel in Dundee.

Antiques aficionados Roo Irvine and David Harper are on the third leg of their road trip, cruising around the north west in their trusty chariot, a replica 1960s AC Cobra.

When David finds a carved cat at the bargain price of a pound, he鈥檚 confident it will make a purr-fect profit at the Dundee auction. He also takes a journey back in time to discover the horrifying environment of the workhouses that were once prevalent across the country.

Roo learns why we have the Victorians to thank every time we spend a penny but fears any chance of a profit will go down the pan when her jewellery heads to auction in Dundee.
