A huge indoor antiques fair beckons for two teams of friends shopping with experts Gary Pe and Ben Cooper, with just 60 minutes on the clock to buy three profitable antiques.

In Devon, Christina Trevanion learns the incredible story of the World War II soldier who bravely played the bagpipes as bullets rained down on British commandos during the D-Day landings in Normandy. Bill Millin’s son John explains how his Scottish father was ordered to play his pipes as troops landed on Sword Beach on 6 June 1944 – and how fearless Bill unwittingly mooned German troops in the process!

A battle of a very different kind is taking place in Exeter among the antiques stalls as two teams of friends go bargain-hunting with experts Ben Cooper and Gary Pe. Long-time pals Sue and Jane have animal collectibles on their shopping list, while mates Ben and Kieran are on a mission to make the biggest profit on the show ever. As the hour ticks down, the blue team make Gary laugh when they mistake a Victorian washing dolly for a toilet plunger. Over with the reds, Ben is lost for words when he spots a tantalus, and tension rises at the auction when the winning team is announced.
