In this penultimate road trip, Paul Laidlaw and Claire Rawle start in Hull, motoring their TVR Tuscan around the north east of England.

Paul finds a rare 18th century puzzle jug, a charming novelty of the period. Claire hopes some Shelley porcelain will do well at auction.

When not buying antiques, Paul discovers how the port of Hull was vital to thousands of Jews fleeing from Tsarist Russia and Claire is agog when indulging her passion for all things railway by hearing about an early pioneer of steam locomotives.

Claire lags behind antiques maestro Paul who has racked up big profits. Can the new girl beat the old master today?
