Antiques Road Trip

Paul Laidlaw and Margie Cooper kick off in medieval York and motor their Morris Minor to auction in Darlington. Paul learns about the man credited as the `father of aviation' and the story of how this aristocrat sent his footman skyward in a hand-built wooden plane, with obvious consequences. Meanwhile, Margie hears about a 19th-century beast wrestler who championed British wildlife.
