It’s a trip to sunny south Wales for antiques experts Izzie Balmer and James Braxton as they kick off a new adventure. They’re on the road in a rather snug 1970s two-seater sports car, taking the scenic route on a tour around the region’s antiques shops with £200 each to spend.\n\nIt’s the second time James and Izzie have gone head-to-head. Jewellery expert Izzie came out on top last time, so the stakes are high for James, who is keen to get ahead on the first leg of this trip.\n\nIzzie decides to buy a monkey-shaped 1920s perfume bottle she thinks will earn a profit at auction, but she’s less sure about an obscure medical curio - a 1920s contraceptive device. James, true to form, can’t resist a bamboo table and picks up a pair of sphinx mounts at a great price.\n\nIn a break from shopping, Izzie heads to Langland Bay to find out about the evolution of skateboarding on the Welsh coast. Meanwhile, James finds out about a pioneer philanthropist from Jamaica who improved the lives of the partially sighted in Victorian Cardiff.\n\nFinally, it’s off to the beautiful Ombersley Court in Worcestershire to find out how well their purchases perform at auction.
