Art dealer Gordon Watson meets Baroness Marion Lambert, a world-renowned art and design collector who has decided to declutter her homes and sell off 300 pieces from her collection in a 15 million auction. The baroness has enlisted the help of one of the world's best auctioneers - Simon de Pury - and Christie's auction house to help her. Gordon takes a sneak preview of the collection and picks out a few pieces he is hoping to bid on. Will he be able to use his expert dealer knowledge to seek out the best buys and get a good deal? Also in this episode, Gordon finally tracks down an artist that he has been keen to meet for over a year - but after waiting so long, will Gordon be deemed worthy enough to buy any of Hugo Wilson's paintings?
