Sold to the Man with the Tin Leg

When Philip Serrell gave up teaching to become a professional auctioneer, he thought he was embarking on a sensible and safe career. How wrong he was. From dodgy cars to fakes in the saleroom; angry livestock, mangled silverware and tortuous - not to mention muddy - experiences in local markets and farm sales, Philip has been there, done that and got the hoofprints on his suit to prove it. Now well known through his television appearances, especially on BBC TV's Bargain Hunt, Philip recalls some of the most colourful characters Worcestershire has to offer, including his tin-legged boss.
