Episode 20

Izzie and JJ visit Worcestershire to help two sisters clear out their late parents’ home. They uncover Cold War-era relics from Russia that will attract strong bids at auction.

Izzie and JJ travel to Worcestershire to help sisters Jackie and Lis clear out their childhood home. Their late parents’ collections include some intriguing mementoes from their time in Russia during the Cold War era.

Auctioneer Izzie explores treasures that the sisters’ mum and dad brought back from their time working in 1980s Moscow, including a magnificent set of Byzantine-inspired religious artworks. Meanwhile, restorer JJ gets to work restoring a damaged dining table to its former glory and saving a broken but stylish 1970s sofa.

Jackie and Lis’s dad was a keen collector, and delving deeper into his eclectic hoard yields a wealth of world coins and banknotes. But will they make a significant sum on sale day?

The sisters want to spend the money raised at auction on a bench in memory of their parents and on a family trip to a holiday spot their mum and dad loved to visit. Emotions run high on auction day.
