Across the UK, millions of pounds worth of neglected treasures lie buried and forgotten in the homes of Britain. From rusty motorbikes to tarnished teapots, ancient tractors to antique furniture, what looks like junk can actually be worth a pretty penny.
Find It Fix It Flog It follows presenters Henry Cole and Simon O’Brien as they journey across the UK, meeting property owners and throwing open their properties to explore the unique items lost inside.
In a series full of light-hearted banter and friendly competition, Henry and Simon dig out the very best finds and using some creative thinking and a lot of elbow grease, fix them up in order to turn a profit for their owners.
Upcycling genious Simon and his restorer Gemma love turning everyday objects in to fantastic
furniture, while for Henry and his mechanic, Guy, its all about restoring retro relics and vintage classics. From transforming a galvanised metal cold water storage tank into a modern coffee table, to turning a 4ft whiskey barrel into a funky and contempory seat, our “sultans of scrap”will show you just how easy it can be to breathe new life into old or unwanted items.

Henry is a tv programme maker who likes bikes, but I’ll wager he hasn’t laid a hand on a spanner to any good effect. We, we, we means everybody else did the work. The end condition of that speed twin is what I buy cheap at the start of the 'fettling'.

[@classicraceruk1337]

That because you did not understand what you watched. All you wanted was to put garbage in writing. Well done you succeeded.

[@AaaaandAction]

@@classicraceruk1337 Not wrong though am I. All his bike programmes are biking eye candy drivel. Now a show put out by skid or Sam would have some real content and not just the jester input that Henry knocks out.

[@classicraceruk1337]

@@AaaaandAction You are wrong, you made an assumption for a start that Henry repairs the bikes. Nowhere is that claim made. He also said the bike needed more work to the person that bought it. Fettling was done on the bike to make it start. Nowhere was it said that it was finished. Your comment was pointless as everything you said is already known. In other words a waste of time writing it. The only reasonable conclusion to come to is that you wanted your name on comments section no matter how inane they were. Well you succeed.

The original 37 Speed Twin is the best bike triumph made and it set the bench mark for future twins including the Bonnie

Why was the profit 2425? Did the owner get it for free?

[@michaelflint4159]

Half a cup of tea Mike? Yes please. Just been riding the triumph for an hour and don't wanna wear it!

[@Moonrakerd]

that looks like former london motorcycle museum :D

[@richcraven9207]

Dick Craven motorcycle museum near York. (No relative)

[@daveco1270]

Sale price was around 3100 US dollars... I'd snatch that up all day long for that price. Thats the kind of deal I'm always on the look out. There was a lot of stuff that wasn't correct for the year and model, but it's a really nice looking rider.

[@BIBIWCICC]

Too much Yaba yaba and not enough mechanical content!

[@chriscrookson8524]

Call that fettled?

[@pauliebots]

You look healthy Henry. Will you try to straighten the head fin on top..? I will be glued.

[@truxton1000]

Haven’t seen one that looks this good for 2500 in many years.

[@pauliebots]

I need to buy bikes over there, that's Hella lot more expensive in the states.

Superficial nonsense
