Award-winning journalists John Simpson and Martha Kearney kick off the series in style.

While John finds war-related items that remind him of his years on the front line, Martha scours the New Forest to find some objects for auction.

Their trip takes them through Hampshire towards a decisive auction in Itchen Stoke, near Winchester.

Two British titans join the road trip as legendary presenter Nicholas Parsons takes on writer and broadcaster Gyles Brandreth.

With the help of antique experts Paul Laidlaw and David Harper, they travel around Surrey before heading to an auction in Watford, Hertfordshire.
