Episode 9 of 25

Auctioneer Izzie Balmer and dealer David Harper travel around Fife, Perthshire and Angus searching for profitable antiques. A very rare jar causes excitement at auction.

It’s the fourth leg of this Scottish extravaganza with auctioneer Izzie Balmer and dealer David Harper. As it happens, they’ll be awfully close to St Andrews, ‘the home of golf’, so perhaps we should call it leg fore!

For their rummage around Fife, Perthshire and Angus, Izzie and David have a trusty vintage Mini and whatever funds they have successfully accrued on top of their £200 starting sum. Izzie finds a very rare jar that results in a bidding war at auction, much to David’s despair.

Our experts take a break from the shopping to find out about an education revolution deep in the Scottish woods and to discover the medieval abbey in which one of the country’s most famous exports has its roots.

When they’re all shopped up, it’s time for the penultimate auction. Will it be birdies or bogeys for our pair?
