Tim Wonnacott is in London s Covent Garden to put the capital on the Great Antiques Map of Britain. He meets locals with treasures that tell the tale of London s past, including a snuffbox made from the wood used in the original London Bridge and some silver spoons created by a Victorian forger who was subsequently sentenced to death. Tim finds out about the age-old pursuit of mudlarking on the shores of the River Thames, scales the Elizabeth Tower to hear Big Ben up close and visits St Paul s Cathedral to see Wren s Great Model.
