Alan Herd and Eric Knowles visit TN Millers in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and buy bargain priced early 19th Century mahogany drop leaf occasional table. Though badly sun-bleached Alan convinces Eric he can restore it to its former glory and he even breaks the top in half to clean a nasty split. Eric visits restorers where he is shown how to restore an extremely fragile gilt gesso mirror. The table is sold in south London - will Alan's hard work be worthwhile?
