In this season 13, episode 11 of Antiques Road Trip, expert antiques dealers are hitting the road once again in search of hidden treasures and antique finds. This episode sees two dealers, beginning their journey from Cardiff and ending up in Stratford-upon-Avon, travelling through the beautiful Welsh countryside and the rolling hills of the English countryside.
First, we join dealer James Braxton, who is no stranger to the popular antique show. James has been a fan-favorite on Antiques Road Trip for several seasons, and his charming and witty personality always adds a fun element to the show. On this trip, James is driving a classic British sports car, and he is on the hunt for some unusual and quirky antiques that will catch the eye of buyers at auction.
In contrast, the other dealer, Margie Cooper, is the new face on the show. As the owner of a successful Antiques business, Margie is an accomplished dealer with years of industry experience. With a keen eye for quality antiques, she is hoping to impress on this trip and hopefully outsmart the more experienced James.
As they travel through the UK, both dealers hit some of the best antique shops, fairs, and markets, meeting eccentric collectors, and passionate traders along the way. Each of them has £200 to spend on buying items they hope will make them a profit at auction, so the pressure is on to make the right choices.
Aside from the antique hunting, the episode also gives us a glimpse of the stunning locations they stop at, including the picturesque Bodnant Garden, set in the foothills of Snowdonia. This garden is home to one of the most beautiful collections of plants and flowers in the UK, and the pair gets to enjoy the blooming flowers before getting back on the road to find more hidden treasures.
Back on their antique search, the duo stumbles upon some unusual finds, including an intriguing lamp that James thinks might be an original Arts and Crafts design. Meanwhile, Margie has her eye on a quirky antique barbershop sign that she hopes will catch the attention of bidders.
As the trip comes to a close, both dealers head to Stratford-upon-Avon for the final leg of their journey. They head to the auction house to put their newly acquired antiques on the block to see if they made any profit.
