The Auction House
Episode 1
S1 E3:
The dealers also get to visit the homes of the super-rich, valuing their current possessions for auction as the bid to update décor in line with the latest fashion begins. In this episode irritable boss Roger, who has a tendency to shake-up staff morale, has decided that the place needs a radical facelift. Some of his employees are in open revolt as they adhere to Roger’s instructions trying to keep up with the fickle tastes of the wealthy housewives and eccentric customers who make up Lots Road clientele. Meanwhile regular visitors Michael and Craig have returned to Lots Road with some items they’re eager to auction. The couple have been selling for 15 years but their eye for a bargain and eccentric taste has meant their home is a treasure trove literally full to the brim with antiques. Other frequent customers include Sam and Lili. The pair are on the lookout for some furniture suitable for the seven bedroom mansion set in its own park that Lili has just bought. One item in particular, however, has distracted Lili’s attention: an elaborate piece of art coated in gold that just so happens to be shaped like a giant vagina. Lili thinks it looks expensive and makes a statement but is it worth the money?
