The Lake District plays host to a new road trip with best buds Natasha Raskin Sharp and Philip Serrell. With a £200 starting budget, they're on the hunt for profit-making antiques.
Natasha blows the lot on a variety of goodies, including a Victorian portable toilet. She also finds time to visit Carlisle Cathedral to look at its breathtaking medieval stained-glass windows.
Philip, his usual ebullient self, acquires a bevy of buys, including an early 20th-century toy lion and a huge bag of marbles. Has he lost his? He finds out at the Lancashire auction. Phil also makes a detour from the shops to learn about the life of famous Lakeland poet Robert Southey, the author of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
