Whistlestop Shopping

Episode 8 of 20

The Antiques Express to Vintage Junction is now leaving the station! With Danny Sebastian and Roo Irvine on board. Don鈥檛 forget to change at Crewe!

All aboard the Antiques Express! Dealers Danny Sebastian and Roo Irvine steam into Cheshire and the West Midlands on the third leg of their adventure together. Expect trains, high-speed shopping and a spot of spotting.

Scouring the shops, Roo comes across a find from her homeland, with tartan and thistles aplenty, and takes time for an item that would grace any art deco mantelpiece. Danny鈥檚 excitement is stoked by a bit of brass with an added extra and a heavyweight item with a flavour of seaside entertainment.

Then it鈥檚 down the track to Crewe, the epicentre of all things locomotive, where our pair grab their jotters and discover the appeal and surprising history of a much-maligned pastime.

This service terminates at a saleroom in Glasgow. Will Roo鈥檚 Scottish discovery serve up a profit? Or will Danny鈥檚 doorstop be 'the way to do it'?
