BBC One - The Travelling Auctioneers, Series 1, Episode 10

Christina and Will meet a couple who want to sell inherited heirlooms at a pop-up auction.

Christina and Will travel to Bicester to help declutter a furniture-filled home after a couple inherited generations' worth of family heirlooms.

Christina and Will travel to Bicester in Oxfordshire to help declutter Louise and Paul’s furniture-filled home after the couple inherited generations' worth of family heirlooms. 

Their modern house is full of large brown furniture that is literally cramping their style. The Victorian and Edwardian dressers, chests of drawers and cabinets, vases, ornaments and jewellery are out of place for these two self-confessed geeks, who would rather make room for cosplay outfits than clocks and crockery. 

Christina has high hopes for a collectable set of 1920s Chinese-style lacquered furniture, while Will finds a gothic Victorian bracket clock whose fretwork needs fixing. A valuable skeleton clock, whose mechanism is visible under a glass dome, is sent off to an expert clock doctor to try to make it work once again. 

At auction in Henley-on-Thames, we find out whether Louise and Paul’s heirlooms find the new owners they deserve, and if the couple achieve the clutter-free home they’re dreaming of.
