Whilst picking out a selection of interesting antiques and collectables to be sold at a local auction, Claire spots an unusual Tibetan teapot. This leads to the momentous discovery of other of Tibetan artefacts belonging to the same owner, a collection of controversial historical significance which all ends up going under the hammer.

With worldwide interest in these objects, will the Flog It! record for the highest value item sold at auction be broken when the sale goes on to raise thousands of pounds?
