experts Phil Serrell and Arusha ‘Roo’ Irvine were left licking their wounds when they both ended up in the red with their chosen antiques in a previous episode of the show.
The day’s auction was proving to be a disaster, prompting the quick-thinking pair to call it quits, aiming to bounce back in the next episode.
They made the executive decision to end their search early as they consoled each other on their run of bad luck. A disappointed Arusha quipped: “If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry! And we had better keep laughing.”
Whereas Antiques Road Trip veteran Phil looked on the bright side, encouraging his fellow expert: “One more leg!”
“We had better go and spend some money,” he said as they abruptly walked out of the auction room.
