Salvage Hunters, Favourite Hunting Grounds

On a grand tour of Portugal's thriving antiques trade, Drew visits the oldest antiques store in the country, enjoys a bustling, historic street market, and explores an antiques superstore by the Atlantic Ocean, uncovering unique items to bring home.

For Drew, every day is a school day, unable to predict who he'll meet, what he'll be offered, or what he'll learn. And this week, visiting three diverse dealers, it's all about what Drew learns, and the hard-earned knowledge he can helpfully impart.

Drew visits dealers whose vision of the antiques world is different to his own. Along the way he discovers a strikingly carved lion, an extraordinary gilded mirror, and chairs made for the Houses of Parliament by his design hero, Pugin.

Drew has enjoyed great success buying items rich with local provenance. This week, he's left speechless by a locally sourced Georgian Cockpen chair near the Scottish border, and snaps up a chilling piece by a local outsider artist in North Wales.

Drew's always keen to learn from other masters of the antiques trade. This week, he buys from fellow experts, snapping up a stylish reclining campaign chair, a Georgian bookcase, and a deer carved by a 19th century Indian artist.

Searching for beautiful, prized items to buy, Drew seeks out the ideal combination of knowledge, and experience with visits to four family businesses, whose passion for what they do help him come away with an exciting array of items to sell on.

This week, Drew is on the hunt for treasures of the Georgian era. Along the way, he discovers a 'deception table' with a secret compartment where the wealthy could conceal treasures, a gargantuan mahogany wine cooler, and a rare Howard & Sons ottoman.

This week, Drew is on the hunt for rare pieces that have stood the test of time. Along the way he uncovers an exquisite 18th century cabinet in original condition and a chest from the Vatican that survived over 250 years of Italian history.

On a special tour of the Republic of Ireland with new buying partner Alister, Drew explores a thriving antiques world, uncovering unusual and eclectic Irish treasures in showrooms, and private homes across the country on an extraordinary Eire adventure.

Out with local dealer Viki Knott, Drew gets an insider's tour of Scotland's vibrant antiques scene. On a trip to Glasgow, Kirkaldy and Perth, he finds an ebonised ladderback chair with Charles Mackintosh influence, and a sinister piece of 1960s Americana.

On the hunt for exciting new stock, Drew, and Alister visit a new collective of dealers, the only business in the UK specialising in the creation of artificial flowers for film and theatre and a mutual dealer friend whose own stock never fails to deliver.

Treading new ground across the UK, Drew and Viki explore the factory complex of a historic British cloth producer, a sprawling reclamation yard and the private lock-up of an online-only dealer to secure desirable items and forge exciting, new connections.

On the road with fellow dealer Alister Dryburgh, Drew Pritchard's hunt for pieces with an interesting backstory takes him from Sussex to Shropshire as they snap up pieces of architectural salvage, campaign furniture, and quirky homemade collectables.

Drew Pritchard takes fellow dealer Viki Knott to some of his favourite hunting grounds which include a sprawling salvage yard, a dealer of traditional country house furniture, and a huge warehouse packed full of unrestored furniture.

Hitting the road with new buying partner Alister Dryburgh, Drew Pritchard heads South, from Shropshire to the Sussex coastline, and back into the Cotswolds, snapping up furniture and decorative pieces inspired by the natural world.
