Paul Martin presents from Sheffield, where he is joined by antiques experts Thomas Plant and James Lewis as they search for interesting and valuable items to take to auction. Among their finds are a tortoiseshell locket, a Georgian tankard and an electrotherapy kit. Paul meets two Sheffield women who were recently awarded honours for keeping the steel mills running during the Second World War, and he also tells the fascinating story of Victorian art critic John Ruskin's influence on the city.
