Roo Irvine visits west Wales, well known for its fascinating myths and legends. She learns about Merlin the wizard and a mysterious potato that was once used to ward off evil spirits! In Carmarthen, she speaks to folklore expert Dr Owen Williams about the origin of talismanic objects and a special oak tree that once grew in the centre of the market town – until a vengeful local man burnt it down!

Hoping to conjure up a few bargains in the neighbouring county of Pembrokeshire are two teams of bargain hunters. Shopping against the clock are friends Adele and Michelle – or the Welsh dragons, as they prefer to call themselves – along with Welsh expert Richard Madley. In blue are married couple Sarah and Pete, who like anything to do with cows and skulls, assisted by Izzie Balmer.

With the run of a sprawling antiques centre, the reds are first to spot a huge enamel teapot. The ticket is £20 too much, reckons Richard, but as he says, it costs nothing to look. Meanwhile, Pete is on the hunt for two cheap buys, so he’s not hooked when he sees a metal coat rack with a three-figure price tag.

Back in Carmarthen, auctioneer Ian Taylor tries to conjure up profits for the teams, but will the result end up being the stuff of legends?
