Ruth Badger and Tamara Beckwith

Society beauty Tamara Beckwith wants to prove she is as good a negotiator as acclaimed businesswoman Ruth Badger. The two women with two very different styles will each be trying to make the most profit when their items are sold at auction in London. Tamara and her sister Clare, and Ruth along with her mother Edna, shop for bargains at an antiques fair in Ardingly, West Sussex. While Team Beckwith rely on well-honed shopping skills to select their items, Ruth and her mum use the power of negotiation to knock prices down to rock bottom. The teams are helped by antiques experts Anita Manning and Mark Stacey.
