Episode 4 of 25

Christina takes a rare vase and Charles a Victorian skirt lifter to auction in Rotherham.

Antique experts Charles Hanson and Christina Trevanion are road tripping around Yorkshire in a vintage convertible searching for relics of a bygone age they can snap up and sell on for a profit at auction in Rotherham.
Christina gets bitten by the keep-fit bug and buys some vintage weights, while Charles purchases an unusual artefact - a Victorian skirt lifter - but only after a demonstration from a blushing dealer. A short detour then allows Christina to learns about a thousand-year-old custom in Ripon, while Charles is given a lesson in medieval archery and explores the ancient walls of York.
