BBC One - Antiques Road Trip, Series 24, Episode 3

Natasha goes wild for chairs and James tackles some tins around Somerset and Wiltshire.

Natasha goes wild for chairs and James buys some less than pristine items as they explore the antiques emporia of Somerset and Wiltshire.

The halfway point of the trip sees experts Natasha Raskin Sharp and James Braxton hitting the shops of Somerset and Wiltshire. However, their Porsche has developed some rude noises and unpleasant smells. Both trippers are strapped for cash so it’s time to get serious - James adopts the persona of a 13th century warlord in preparation for haggling.

Natasha discovers she has a deep-seated attraction for chairs, while James finds himself in a shop that sells only one type of antique. To stretch his dwindling budget he picks up a few items in not far from pristine condition.

Natasha also finds out about a top-secret group of highly trained fighters who helped bring about social reform for women. James heads to Salisbury to discover what it takes to care for the cathedral’s stained glass and to hear about the historic vandals who tried to destroy it. 

It’s ‘chocks away’ at the auction as our pair settle into a couple of fighter jets to watch their items go under the gavel. Will they reach new heights or simply crash and burn?
