Antiques Road Trip: Season 25, Episode 18

25 - 18: Episode 18

The third leg of a romp around Scotland with antiques experts Roo Irvine and Mark Hill. A 1970s Triumph transports our dynamic duo to shops scattered throughout the Highlands.

Veteran road tripper Roo's laser vision picks out silver antiques in almost every shop. A Georgian brooch gives her something solemn to think about, but a rather unorthodox key rack, she hopes, will unlock some big profits. Meanwhile, rookie tripper Mark continues to buy like an old hand as he finds a wooden sculpture of a naked torso that makes for an exhilarating auction.

On the way to the North Shields saleroom, Mark takes a wee break to learn about the former Scottish institution that embraced a new approach to treating its patients, and Roo braves the weather to find out why a corps of Indian soldiers ended up in the Cairngorms during World War II.
