Episodes
Episode 1
In the first episode, a businessman tries to sell his prized Lamborghini to veteran pawnbroker Ray, who knows he can only afford to take the car if he can find a buyer. A woman tries to sell a watch that could be valuable to a life-changing amount - but could also be a fake. A former 1980s pop star fallen on hard times visits a pawnbroker to raise some much-needed funds.
Episode 2
This week we return to the world of luxury pawnbroking where assets can be worth six figure sums. Customers can either sell their assets or borrow money against them but risk losing their valuables if they can't repay their loan. However, it's also a risk for the pawnbroker - in an industry flooded with counterfeit goods, unique items need expert valuation and erratic markets must be navigated, the more valuable the asset the bigger the risk to the pawnbroker.
Episode 3
The third and final episode of Million Pound Pawn explores the tricky and unpredictable nature of valuing assets - with items going in and out of fashion, what goes up can also go down and pawnbrokers need to be able to spot trends in the market to make sure they are buying at the right time so they can sell on and make a profit.
