First episode of a two-part series following business at Christie's, the world's largest auction house, as staff, experts, advisers and buyers set art trends, prices and records.

The programme goes behind the scenes in London, Dubai, New York and Hong Kong, as staff, experts, advisers and buyers set art trends, prices and records.
