Antiques challenge. Anita Manning and Paul Laidlaw traverse the Trossachs in a classic car on the first leg of their adventure.

Anita Manning and Paul Laidlaw traverse the Trossachs in a classic car on the first leg of their adventure. Anita, true to form, is drawn to a cabinet containing a silver brooch, while Paul finds a Nasa space spoon and a very rare stool that a royal derriere may have found comfy in 1953.

Away from the shops, Anita travels to a small cottage workshop at Kinneil House where renowned Scottish engineer James Watt developed the steam engine that powered the Industrial Revolution. Paul, meanwhile, tries his hand at coopering and discovers why this ancient craft has endured to this day and is vital to the drinks industry.
