Political heavyweights Edwina Currie and Lembit Opik use all their debating, deliberating, and dealing skills when they take each other on at an auction house.
Edwina, a former Tory MP, is helped in her search for bargains by her husband John Jones, while former Lib Dem frontbencher Lembit is partnered by his mother Liivi. They find their items at an antiques fair in Ardingly, with the help of antiques experts James Lewis and Anita Manning.
Edwina and John's items include a mahogany work box while Lembit and Liivi's items include a silver and amber hat pin and a chrome light fitting.
They are joined at the fair by presenter Tim Wonnacott, a former director of Sothebys, who takes time out to discuss antiques with the teams.
