It’s been seven years since Road Trip stalwarts and best friends Catherine Southon and Phil Serrell last hit the road together, but by popular demand – they’re back. If there’s one thing this odd couple love more than antiques, it’s pranking each other. It’s going to be fun. This time, they’re cosying up in a little red Morgan Roadster clutching their £1,500 spending money.

The trip starts out in Bristol, where Catherine is left speechless in a reclamation yard but finds her voice in Methodism’s oldest chapel. Motoring through Clifton and into Somerset, they amass a variety of treasures, including a vintage florist’s stand, tiles, a Sampson Mordan silver propelling pencil and a vintage French wine map. Phil expertly pulls together an arts and crafts job lot.

And once the browsing, buying and bantering are done, there’s always the thrill of the first of five auctions. Who will come out on top in this initial leg?
