麻豆约拍

We鈥檝e reached the tipping point in the epic antiques battle between good chums but fierce rivals, Natasha Raskin Sharp and James Braxton. In this episode, they find themselves deep in the Black Country, with only their wits, 拢200 and the contents of James鈥檚 harvest jug to see them through the day.

As they hit the emporia of the West Midlands, James is distracted by sweets, but he still manages to find an enormous specimen of a rather famous bird and also buy a somewhat noisy antique. Natasha gets her hands on a rather macabre little curio and goes gaga for some ceramics. On the way there鈥檒l be cricket... and encounters with other insects!

Away from the shops, Natasha visits one of the largest places of worship in the UK to find out how a centuries-old tradition of embroidery helped women from Punjab find work and self-worth in the British textile industry. Tash tries her hand at a spot of sewing too, with mixed results.

Which expert will be celebrating a win at the auction?
