0:00:02 > 0:00:04It's the nation's favourite antique experts.
0:00:04 > 0:00:06- This is beautiful. - That's the way to do this.
0:00:06 > 0:00:12With £200 each, a classic car and a goal to scour for antiques.
0:00:12 > 0:00:13- Joy!- Hello!
0:00:13 > 0:00:16The aim? To make the biggest profit at auction.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18But it's no mean feat.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22There will be worthy winners and valiant losers.
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Sorry! Sorry!
0:00:24 > 0:00:27So will it be the high road to glory or the slow road to disaster?
0:00:27 > 0:00:29The handbrake's on!
0:00:29 > 0:00:31This is Antiques Road Trip.
0:00:34 > 0:00:35Yeah!
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Welcome to the second leg of the trip.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42We're soaking up the stunning scenery in Northern Ireland
0:00:42 > 0:00:44with two top antique experts -
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Catherine Southon and Paul Laidlaw.
0:00:47 > 0:00:52They look happy now, but leg one saw tensions flair.
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Would you please remove yourself from this cabinet?
0:00:56 > 0:00:58- I thought you were my friend, Paul. - What?!
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- The honeymoon's not even started! - No, it's divorce already.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04- I'm sorry.- Oh, no!- It's divorce. - Well, I want the dog.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07HE CACKLES
0:01:07 > 0:01:11Anyway. With nearly 20 years of antiques experience under her belt,
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Catherine certainly knows what she likes.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Oh, I love this. That's super.
0:01:20 > 0:01:25Laughing boy Paul is an auctioneer who's just as opinionated.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27But these are good.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32- First auction behind us. - You were nervous at the auction.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34I'm always nervous. Get used to it.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38Is it because you have never been against such a good competitor?
0:01:38 > 0:01:42- That's exactly what it is. - Is that why?- I'm quaking.
0:01:42 > 0:01:43In his boots.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Catherine started this trip with £200 in her pocket.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51After some wise buys on leg one,
0:01:51 > 0:01:55she's turned it into a respectable £258.80.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Paul began with the same sum and also made some profitable purchases,
0:02:01 > 0:02:05so has £282 to play with today.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11This week's automobile of choice is a 1971 Morris Minor,
0:02:11 > 0:02:14manufactured before seatbelts became mandatory -
0:02:14 > 0:02:17that's why they're not wearing one each.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20I just think, I really do feel relaxed.
0:02:22 > 0:02:23I'm so laid back.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- This is the life, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30I've never seen her so relaxed.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32She's horizontal!
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Our journey began in Portrush, County Antrim,
0:02:40 > 0:02:44and after exploring Northern Ireland, they'll cross the sea to Scotland
0:02:44 > 0:02:47before finally finishing several hundred miles later in Aberdeen.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53This second leg kicks off in Aghadowey in Northern Ireland,
0:02:53 > 0:02:55and will finish up in bonnie Scotland,
0:02:55 > 0:02:59where they'll do battle at auction in Galashiels.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Come on, Paul, I'm going to challenge you.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Can you buy something retro?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05HE STAMMERS
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Don't put me under pressure!
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- No.- Don't make me! Don't make me!
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Oh, come on, Paul. Have a bit of fun.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14We'll see. Never say never.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19Catherine's first shop of the day is nestled in the lush countryside
0:03:19 > 0:03:22of County Londonderry in Aghadowey.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Sarah Rose Antiques. We're going to get on famously, Sarah Rose and I.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I'm not looking. I'm not looking.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Assume there's nothing there, Laidlaw.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Assume there's nothing to be bought.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37- I'm coming back with armfuls. Armfuls!- Don't!
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- See you later. - Have a good one!- Have fun!
0:03:43 > 0:03:46The shop's namesake, Sarah Rose,
0:03:46 > 0:03:49runs the family business with her dad, James.
0:03:49 > 0:03:54With a mixture of past and future antiques, there's plenty on offer.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56If you need any help, give me a wee call.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Yeah, is that all right, Sarah? Cos I've got my eye on a few things.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- That's all right.- As I'm talking to you, my eyes are wondering.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05Oh, yes, some nice things in here all right.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Like that.
0:04:07 > 0:04:08What is it?
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Help me out here, Sarah.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13This looks really interesting on the wall here.
0:04:13 > 0:04:18Cast iron. Is it for being next to a fire for your...?
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- That would have been for... - Bread? Scones?- For breads, uh-huh.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24This is a harnen stand.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27Traditionally used to toast or dry out large oatcakes
0:04:27 > 0:04:29in front of the open fire.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32This one probably dates from around the early 19th century
0:04:32 > 0:04:34and is worth a closer look, I guess.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37I like that.
0:04:37 > 0:04:38What have you got on that?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41There's, I think, £85 on that there.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44I mean, I see that at auction probably
0:04:44 > 0:04:47more like your £30 to £50 estimate, but...
0:04:47 > 0:04:51That's OK. Well, sure, we can have a think about that one.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54While Catherine continues to peruse,
0:04:54 > 0:04:59Paul has made his way to Ballynure in County Antrim.
0:04:59 > 0:05:04This rustic and rugged county is home to a number of filming locations
0:05:04 > 0:05:08for award-winning fantasy TV series Game of Thrones.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Paul's come to Bridgend Antiques.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15A unique type of shop, situated next door to its owner's house.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17What fun.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- Hello, there.- Hi, Paul.
0:05:19 > 0:05:20Pleased to meet you. Hector Thompson.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- Pleased to meet you. - Good to see you.- You too.
0:05:23 > 0:05:28This place smells the way I like my world to smell. Beeswax.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Beeswax - furniture polish.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33I dab it behind my ears of a morning.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Nice!
0:05:45 > 0:05:49I will lift every stone because I'm meticulous.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58It looks like some Capodimonte figurines have turned Paul's head.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03Excellent modelling. They want to be Belle Epoque.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- They want to be 1900, don't they? - Yeah.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08They're quality. They're quality.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12I see a price tag on there. 38 quid.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- That's the two, now. That's not one. - That's the two?- That's the pair.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18But you know there's no way
0:06:18 > 0:06:21I'm going to take the first price on anything.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24We know that. That goes without saying.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26That's good. So there's no surprises or disappointments here.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Just give me the absolute bottom line.
0:06:29 > 0:06:3020 quid.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- You broke the ice. We're off and rolling.- OK.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Good man.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40I'm a wee bit in love.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43I fancy the one on the left.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47And her mate's not half bad either. I can't lose here tonight. I'm in.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53On that note, Catherine, what have you found?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55- There's a little table there.- Mm-hm.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Now, I quite like the top of that table.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- I like the detail here.- Mm-hm.
0:07:03 > 0:07:04I mean, I think this is the sort of thing
0:07:04 > 0:07:07that was probably churned out en masse,
0:07:07 > 0:07:10and it was made for the western market.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I like the legs, I think they're quite decorative.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15And I think at £15, that's...
0:07:15 > 0:07:17That's not bad.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Is there any movement in that one?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23That one's actually £68 on that one.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27Oh, I read the other side, which I prefer much more.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29- Oh, no!- 15.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- Sorry, that's our code for our book.- Oh, is it?!
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Mm-hm.- Oh, no! I thought that was the price!
0:07:35 > 0:07:36Sorry about that.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- SHE MOUTHS:- Damn!
0:07:38 > 0:07:39Unlucky, eh?
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Paul, meanwhile, has found something else he fancies -
0:07:42 > 0:07:45a rather nice Royal Crown Derby cabaret tea set.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50What's a cabaret tea set? It's tea for two, is it not, yeah?
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Which is sweet, I get the...
0:07:52 > 0:07:54For me, there's a touch of romance there.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Now cabaret tea sets, yeah, you can buy those.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Cabaret tea sets with trays are uncommon.
0:08:00 > 0:08:07So what you get is an uncommonly complete set
0:08:07 > 0:08:11by one of the more desirable manufacturers.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13I think that's pretty seductive.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17But, at £185, it's too pricey for his purse.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Hector, what's your best?
0:08:21 > 0:08:22125.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- No.- Where do you want to be?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Do you know what? I'm going to make you a cheeky offer.- OK.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Going from porcelain figurines to china teaware
0:08:31 > 0:08:34would suggest to many I have lost the plot.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39But, at 75 quid, I don't think I could do bad.
0:08:39 > 0:08:4190 quid.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Oh, jeez! Down to two figures.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- No, it just... - Are you a gambling man?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Oh, jeez, you're not going to pull a coin!
0:08:50 > 0:08:53- I'll spin you. - Oh, no! I hate that!
0:08:53 > 0:08:5675 or 85 quid.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Spin the coin. Tails.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Heads.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07HE STAMMERS
0:09:07 > 0:09:10That was me taking that well. But that is a good deal.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- Thank you very much. - Wonderful. No. Spot on.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- I'm happy with that.- It's fine.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19Excuse me. Wait a minute. I think I forgot something.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20YOU FOOL!
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- ECHOES:- Fool...fool...!
0:09:25 > 0:09:30Back in Aghadowey, Catherine's spotted a piece of silver.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32The rest of it's plate in there.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39It looks like it's initialled L and S. Levi and Salaman, maybe.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Yes, indeed, actually.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Probably about late 19th century.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Little belt buckle.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Really nicely decorated.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Not a lot to it. It's priced up £12.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Ah-ha! The shop owner returns.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Hi, Sarah, there was this one other thing.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00This, which is just like a little...
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- I mean, just like a simple belt buckle.- Yeah.
0:10:03 > 0:10:07Sarah's going to consult her dad about the best price
0:10:07 > 0:10:09for the belt buckle and the occasional table.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13She's already agreed to knock £40 off the harnen stand,
0:10:13 > 0:10:17giving that a price of £45, which has to be a snip.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23Now, I have asked him about the table and I've explained to him
0:10:23 > 0:10:27- that you'd seen the thing and you thought it was 15.- Yes.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- So he says we'd go down to 35 for you.- OK.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33And this wee one, £10.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Right. OK. I will...
0:10:35 > 0:10:38take this at 45.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43If I can have that for 30, then I'll take it.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47What happens if we just give you a wee luck penny back?
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- Oh, what's a luck penny? - A luck penny's like an Irish thing.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55The table's 35, so I'm giving you £2 and it means you're taking
0:10:55 > 0:10:57the luck with you from Ireland.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Aw!- And the table, you pay me £33.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03- So the table was in fact £33?- Yes.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Feeling lucky, Catherine?
0:11:07 > 0:11:10If you can do that for a fiver, I'll take that as well
0:11:10 > 0:11:13and that will give me another bit of luck.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- That will do. - Is that all right?- Yeah.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Thank you so much. - All right. Thank you.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20So that's the harnen stand,
0:11:20 > 0:11:24the occasional table and the silver buckle bought for £83. Wow!
0:11:26 > 0:11:27Over in Ballynure,
0:11:27 > 0:11:31Paul's found a pair of early 20th century evening bags.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Bit unusual for him.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Just what can these be?
0:11:38 > 0:11:39£15.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44They cannae be £15. That's not working for me.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47What's cheap? What's the bottom line
0:11:47 > 0:11:49on my lost shot on the way out the door?
0:11:53 > 0:11:56- To give you a chance... - That hinge is a wee bit iffy.
0:11:56 > 0:11:57And that's no use at all.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Give me your hand and we'll have a deal at a fiver.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- We got a deal at a fiver. - Done.- Magic.
0:12:05 > 0:12:06You know what I'm going to buy now?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08I've got two more things to buy for this auction.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11I'm going to buy a dress and I'm going to buy some...
0:12:11 > 0:12:13High heels?
0:12:13 > 0:12:16..some vintage perfume bottles.
0:12:16 > 0:12:22So that means Paul has paid £110 for his haul of three items.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Catherine, meanwhile, is taking a break from shopping
0:12:27 > 0:12:31and has travelled to Bellaghy in County Londonderry.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36A place of rural peace and inspiring tranquillity,
0:12:36 > 0:12:39it's here that the late, great Seamus Heaney grew up.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41The Nobel Prize winner for literature,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Seamus was internationally recognised
0:12:44 > 0:12:47as the greatest Irish poet since WB Yeats.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49And he had a good line in hats.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55Catherine's come to Bellaghy Bawn to find out more from local photographer
0:12:55 > 0:12:58and old family friend Fergal Kearney.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00OK, Catherine,
0:13:00 > 0:13:03you're very welcome to the Seamus Heaney library in Bellaghy Bawn.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07It's a treasure trove of Seamus Heaney's history,
0:13:07 > 0:13:10from his school bag to his duffle coat.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12This room really is, if you like,
0:13:12 > 0:13:18in memoriam now to one of our greatest 20th century writers.
0:13:18 > 0:13:23The Seamus Heaney archive at Bellaghy Bawn opened 20 years ago
0:13:23 > 0:13:25and explores the history and background
0:13:25 > 0:13:29of the area that inspired Seamus' poetry.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33You said he was one of the most important 20th century poets,
0:13:33 > 0:13:35but when did that really start?
0:13:35 > 0:13:39I think it goes back to his very early childhood.
0:13:39 > 0:13:45And I suppose not all of us would be as attuned to the place around us
0:13:45 > 0:13:48as Seamus Heaney was when he was growing up.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50And he was a great explorer,
0:13:50 > 0:13:55and he almost used it as a touchstone for his adult life,
0:13:55 > 0:13:58the innocence of childhood and the experiences of childhood,
0:13:58 > 0:14:01and drew not on anecdote, but on the reality of growing up in such
0:14:01 > 0:14:05a beautiful place to actually create words of lyrical beauty.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Born into a farming family in 1939, Seamus was a bright boy
0:14:12 > 0:14:15and, at the age of 12, was sent on a scholarship
0:14:15 > 0:14:18to St Columb's College in Derry.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19He eventually became a teacher,
0:14:19 > 0:14:22but found fame in 1966 with the publication
0:14:22 > 0:14:26of his first collection of poetry, Death Of A Naturalist,
0:14:26 > 0:14:29much of which focused on his childhood memories.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33This included the tremendously poignant poem Mid-Term Break,
0:14:33 > 0:14:37a reflection on the death of his four-year-old brother.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Mid-Term Break is a poem
0:14:41 > 0:14:45which is a memorial to his little brother, Christopher,
0:14:45 > 0:14:50who was sadly killed in the road outside the family home
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- as a four-year-old.- Oh, God!
0:14:53 > 0:14:56He ends the poem, "Next morning, I went up into the room.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59"Snowdrops and candles soothed the bedside.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02"I saw him for the first time in six weeks.
0:15:02 > 0:15:03"Paler now.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07"Wearing a poppy bruise on his left temple.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10"He lay in the four-foot box as in his cot.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14"No gaudy scars, the bumper knocked him clear.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17"A four-foot box,
0:15:17 > 0:15:18"a foot for every year."
0:15:18 > 0:15:21- Gosh, that really hits you, doesn't it?- Mm.
0:15:23 > 0:15:28Seamus' powerful poetry often contained rich depictions
0:15:28 > 0:15:31of his rural upbringing and Irish heritage
0:15:31 > 0:15:34that remained close to his heart throughout his life.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I mean, he achieved wonderful things.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39He was a professor at Harvard. He was a professor at Oxford.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- But it was born from... - But it comes back. Exactly.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44That's what it comes back to.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48He died in August, 2013,
0:15:48 > 0:15:51and his last wish was to be buried in Bellaghy.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54And he lies here forever now, at peace in Bellaghy,
0:15:54 > 0:15:57in the soil that enriched his life
0:15:57 > 0:16:00and subsequently enriched ours through his work.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Thank you so much. - No problem at all.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05- It's been wonderful. - That's good.- It's been moving.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08- Great.- But it's been wonderful. Thank you so much.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10- I've really enjoyed it. - You're very welcome.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13Paul, meanwhile, has made his way to Belfast.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Home to over a third of the population of Northern Ireland,
0:16:16 > 0:16:20it was awarded city status by Queen Victoria in 1888.
0:16:23 > 0:16:28But Paul's not here to soak up the culture. He's here to shop.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31- Hello, there. - Hi, Paul. Welcome to Belfast.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- Laurence.- It is indeed, yes.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Good to see you. Thank you very much for the greeting.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38I'm looking for something interesting,
0:16:38 > 0:16:40a bit stand-out, at the right money.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42It's as easy as that.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Sounds simple enough.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45What's that, with the trigger?
0:16:45 > 0:16:47It's for Stilton.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- It's not silver, though, is it?- No.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56That's not the prettiest I've seen.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00Arguably, it's quite ugly.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03But it's undeniably interesting.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05So what is it, Laidlaw?
0:17:05 > 0:17:09It's a tiny little gardening shovel for leprechauns.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13No, in all seriousness...
0:17:13 > 0:17:15it's a Stilton scoop. OK?
0:17:16 > 0:17:23So, when one delivers the Stilton to the table, you need this.
0:17:23 > 0:17:24This is what you need.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29I like that. It's cool.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30Um...
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Tell me the price.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37£25 would show me a small profit.
0:17:39 > 0:17:40Sir...
0:17:42 > 0:17:46- ..thank you very much. - Glad you found something.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47I like that. I like that.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50But I'm going to have another wee mooch about.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03That cries out one of two trade names
0:18:03 > 0:18:06coming out of Scotland. Monart and Vasart.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08And why do I say that?
0:18:08 > 0:18:14Well, we get the use of what's called aventurine glass here.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17See these metallic, sparkling inclusions here?
0:18:17 > 0:18:20It's like goldstone.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24And then you get the mottled, almost blue opaline
0:18:24 > 0:18:27and the lovely contrast between the two types of glass.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29A good baluster form with a flared neck,
0:18:29 > 0:18:35dating to the 1930s, '40s. £22.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Yeah, let's ask.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Is there a deal to be done with Laurence?
0:18:41 > 0:18:45You can walk away with that one for 20, if that helps you.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48I'll bid you a tenner on that.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Are you Scottish, by any chance?
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Meet me halfway. 15 quid.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01It's going to a Scottish auction and it's 15 quid and it's sold.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- Thank you, sir.- Thank you very much. - Great stuff.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- What do I owe you? 15 quid... Remind me.- 25.- 25.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11I owe you 40 quid.
0:19:11 > 0:19:12Then I'm out of your hair.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15With those two lots bought by Paul,
0:19:15 > 0:19:19we say nighty-night to a busy day of shopping. What fun.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Good morning, road trippers.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33- How'd you get on yesterday? - HE CHUCKLES
0:19:33 > 0:19:36- Oh, there's that laugh.- What? - It's the laugh.- Oh, what now?
0:19:36 > 0:19:39It's the knowing laugh that you did.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Uh-oh, they're at it again.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46Yesterday, Catherine bagged herself the iron harnen stand,
0:19:46 > 0:19:49the carved table and the silver buckle,
0:19:49 > 0:19:53leaving her £175.80 to spend today.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Paul picked up five lots -
0:19:57 > 0:20:02the Capodimonte figurines, the Royal Crown Derby tea set,
0:20:02 > 0:20:06the ladies' handbags, the Stilton scoop and the vase.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10He's got £132 burning a hole in his pocket.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16Catherine's come to central Belfast for her first shop of the day,
0:20:16 > 0:20:19hoping to uncover some splendid buys.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23Wow! This is much bigger than I thought.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- Hello.- Hello.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27- Hi. Catherine. You must be Heather. - I'm Heather.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Hi, Heather, lovely to meet you.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33- It goes back a long way, doesn't it? - There's plenty to look at.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34There is an awful lot to look at.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37But as soon as I come in I see lots of smalls, which is lovely.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40I'm seeing in there that you've got a little belt buckle.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42And the reason I'm asking that is just because
0:20:42 > 0:20:44I've bought another belt buckle recently
0:20:44 > 0:20:47and I'm thinking I can maybe put the two together.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51That's an early one.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53It's not a reproduction.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- Because so often these are reproductions.- Yes.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59And that's quite nicely chased, isn't it?
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Right. What would you do on this one cos you've got 68 on that?
0:21:05 > 0:21:07I'll do it for 60.
0:21:07 > 0:21:08Oh, Heather.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Is there no way you can do a bit more on that one?
0:21:12 > 0:21:13I'll go to 50.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Can you do 40?
0:21:16 > 0:21:18It's dropping an awful lot.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- Well, all right.- Is that OK?- 40.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Thank you very much.
0:21:22 > 0:21:23Now, what else?
0:21:26 > 0:21:30That's lovely, isn't it? That book slide there with the fans on.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32That's really nice.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It's all lacquered with mother-of-pearl inlay on it.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39I don't really like book slides, they're normally terribly boring.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42It's something I've never, ever bought, actually.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44But that's actually really nice.
0:21:44 > 0:21:49With a price tag of £120, do you like it enough?
0:21:51 > 0:21:53What would be your very best on this?
0:21:53 > 0:21:57Well, it really should be 100.
0:21:57 > 0:21:58But, er...
0:21:59 > 0:22:01..if I said 90.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Mm.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Can we say 80 on it?
0:22:05 > 0:22:08And then I think I will shake your hand
0:22:08 > 0:22:10because I do like that.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Er...
0:22:12 > 0:22:16- Yes.- I shall shake your hand. Thank you very much.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20That generous discount means Catherine parts with £120.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30Paul, meanwhile, has made his way to Dungannon in County Armagh,
0:22:30 > 0:22:32where he's visiting the Argory,
0:22:32 > 0:22:36the family home of a soldier named Ralph Shelton -
0:22:36 > 0:22:39an ordinary man who survived an extraordinary disaster
0:22:39 > 0:22:41before he was out of his teens.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Here to tell Paul more is house manager Matthew Morrison.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50This was the home of Captain Shelton.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54He was a survivor of the Birkenhead disaster in 1852.
0:22:54 > 0:23:00This is really significant in terms of maritime disasters, is it not?
0:23:00 > 0:23:03It is. This was the largest maritime disaster
0:23:03 > 0:23:05before the sinking of the Titanic.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08And it was at this event that the Birkenhead protocol was established,
0:23:08 > 0:23:11which is the women and children first were to be evacuated.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15- My word!- So quite an important event in our history.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17And actually, although we believe it happens a lot,
0:23:17 > 0:23:20it's only ever been used officially twice in history.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Once on the Birkenhead and then again on the Titanic.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25- Oh, my God! - So it's not as common as we think.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31It was in January 1852, just shy of his 20th birthday,
0:23:31 > 0:23:36that Shelton set off to fight in the Cape Frontier Wars in South Africa.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39He travelled on HMS Birkenhead.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Who's aboard, just troops?
0:23:41 > 0:23:44No, this was one of the very early voyages,
0:23:44 > 0:23:47where women and children would have travelled along with the officers.
0:23:47 > 0:23:51They were there to act as nurses and cooks to the men.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54In the early hours of the 26th of February,
0:23:54 > 0:23:58while travelling around the Cape of Good Hope, disaster struck.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02The ship hit a rocky outcrop called Danger Point.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Shelton was fast asleep below deck.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08At 2am, he was woken as they hit the rocks
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- and, at that point, they were all called on to the deck.- Yeah.
0:24:11 > 0:24:16Very early on, Shelton was ordered to remove the horses
0:24:16 > 0:24:17and lead them overboard.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19They were hoping to lighten the weight,
0:24:19 > 0:24:21and they were very distressed.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25Deary me! It's horrific quickly, isn't it?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Even with the horses cut loose and thrown overboard,
0:24:28 > 0:24:30the ship continued to flounder.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32It was then that the historic order
0:24:32 > 0:24:35of "women and children first" was issued.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38After that, Shelton went beneath deck,
0:24:38 > 0:24:40where he took his own initiative to search
0:24:40 > 0:24:44and make sure all women and children had evacuated safely.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46And it was there that he found the two little girls
0:24:46 > 0:24:48that were holding each other in one of the cabins,
0:24:48 > 0:24:50terrified for their lives.
0:24:50 > 0:24:51If we look here on the picture,
0:24:51 > 0:24:54we can actually see Shelton with the two young girls that he saved.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56And he passes them into the lifeboat,
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- where their mother hysterically waited for them.- Right.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01Now, like the Titanic, there's not enough lifeboats, are there?
0:25:01 > 0:25:04There's not enough lifeboats and there was some difficulty
0:25:04 > 0:25:07in launching those that were workable onboard.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11And we believe there were several that actually made it safely away.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Fearing the few lifeboats carrying the women and children
0:25:14 > 0:25:17would be swamped, the commanding officer drew his sword
0:25:17 > 0:25:21and ordered his men to stand fast and remain on the ship.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26The Birkenhead split in two
0:25:26 > 0:25:30and sank only 20 minutes after hitting the rocks.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33So what becomes of Shelton in all this?
0:25:33 > 0:25:37- He's aboard the vessel as it's going down.- He was.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40As a reward for his courage and foresight,
0:25:40 > 0:25:43Shelton was actually offered a place on the lifeboat to save his life.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45- Really?- But he declined,
0:25:45 > 0:25:49and he chose to stand with the men and go down with the ship.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Death by drowning came quickly to many of the men.
0:25:52 > 0:25:57The more unfortunate were killed by great white sharks.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01Shelton however survived, enduring a terrifying three-hour swim to shore.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Our story doesn't end with just Shelton surviving the Birkenhead.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09When he was removing the horses from board,
0:26:09 > 0:26:12his own horse went overboard and into the sea.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16When he landed on the bay and he came through, he was exhausted,
0:26:16 > 0:26:19he looked up and there was his own horse, standing,
0:26:19 > 0:26:23- and the two had survived the swim. - Behave yourself!
0:26:23 > 0:26:24- Seriously?- It is, yes.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27And this is the horse here which he brought back here to the Argory.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29It was known as the Birkenhead Horse.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32Of course it was. That's astonishing!
0:26:32 > 0:26:34It's an incredible story.
0:26:34 > 0:26:39193 people survived, including all the women and children,
0:26:39 > 0:26:43but it's estimated nearly 450 men lost their lives.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52Shelton went on to have a successful military
0:26:52 > 0:26:56and diplomatic career before inheriting the Argory, aged 34.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00He spent the rest of his life lovingly renovating the house,
0:27:00 > 0:27:05but he never forgot his brush with death on board the HMS Birkenhead.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Well, I'm delighted to have visited the house that clearly he cherished.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11- I'm indebted to you, Matt. - You're very welcome.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13- Thank you for coming. - Great stuff.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Reunited once again, Catherine and Paul have made their way
0:27:19 > 0:27:22to their final stop on this leg of the road trip -
0:27:22 > 0:27:25Ballinderry Upper in County Antrim.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27This looks like it.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- Ballinderry Antiques.- Are you ready for this? Are you ready?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Born ready.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Spread over three floors,
0:27:35 > 0:27:38there's plenty on offer in Ballinderry Antiques,
0:27:38 > 0:27:41and it's Paul who's first to find something.
0:27:41 > 0:27:47The first thing I pick up is a Georgian firing glass.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Wait a minute. Did he say firing glass?
0:27:50 > 0:27:52What on earth is one of those?
0:27:52 > 0:27:55Well, there was a fashion amongst 18th
0:27:55 > 0:28:00and early 19th century drinking clubs and societies for toasting.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02And when one toasted...
0:28:04 > 0:28:07"To the King! Hurrah!"
0:28:07 > 0:28:13Imbibe. And then slam the glass down on the table in unison.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15It'd go off like gunfire.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17So what did they do?
0:28:17 > 0:28:19Develop glasses specific for toasting.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23A small bowl because you don't want to get drunk too quickly
0:28:23 > 0:28:27and a heavy, heavy foot with a heavy, short stem.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30It's a firing glass.
0:28:30 > 0:28:31That's the term.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33And that's what we've got there.
0:28:33 > 0:28:37And if I went to buy that from a glass specialist,
0:28:37 > 0:28:39I'd have a budget of £80 in mind.
0:28:40 > 0:28:45Price tag on this says £28.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47Smug face.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52I think we'll keep this in mind.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54But I've only just started.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57Catherine's downstairs with dealer Donald.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59What's that sampler?
0:28:59 > 0:29:02Yeah, Victorian sampler.
0:29:02 > 0:29:04"Ann Thomas."
0:29:04 > 0:29:06That would be £55.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12Often with samplers, you would find little children
0:29:12 > 0:29:16doing like the alphabet or numbers, embroidering them.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18But here we've got this little girl,
0:29:18 > 0:29:23so we've got "Ann Thomas, aged 9 yrs." Dated 1867.
0:29:23 > 0:29:28But what I like about this one is it's pictorial.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31I think these are the ones that sell for more money.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35Can we say £35 on that?
0:29:35 > 0:29:39No, I couldn't. £40, that would be. Yeah?
0:29:39 > 0:29:40Uh-huh.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43£40, you say?
0:29:43 > 0:29:44Yeah? That's the end?
0:29:44 > 0:29:47- That's the end.- That's the end. Let me shake your hand.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Good work, Catherine.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54Right, Paul, decision time on that firing glass.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57I can't resist a nice piece of glass.
0:29:57 > 0:29:59Would you sell me that?
0:29:59 > 0:30:01Er, £20?
0:30:03 > 0:30:05- Straightforward.- Easy.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07- No problem at all.- Excellent.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09Talk about blink and you'll miss it.
0:30:09 > 0:30:13A speedy deal on the firing glass for £20.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16And, just like that, both our experts are all bought up.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Catherine spent £243 on five lots -
0:30:24 > 0:30:29the wrought iron harnen stand, the Indian carved occasional table,
0:30:29 > 0:30:36the silver buckles, the unusual book slide and the Victorian sampler.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43Paul spent less, forking out £170 on six lots,
0:30:43 > 0:30:47buying the Capodimonte figures, the Royal Crown Derby tea set,
0:30:47 > 0:30:51the ladies' evening bags, the Victorian Stilton scoop,
0:30:51 > 0:30:56the glass baluster vase and Georgian firing glass.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59So what do they think of each other's lots?
0:30:59 > 0:31:03That you can buy an interesting, I've got to say,
0:31:03 > 0:31:08good quality in every regard, charming, period sampler good to go
0:31:08 > 0:31:13for £40 is the best advert imaginable for entering our world.
0:31:13 > 0:31:18I never thought Paul would go for the Crown Derby tea set.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22And I didn't really think he would go for any Capodimonte figures.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25And I definitely didn't think he would go for handbags.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Thankfully, there are two pieces that I think could be tricky,
0:31:28 > 0:31:30and that saves my bacon.
0:31:30 > 0:31:36But I tell you what I do really like is that super Stilton scoop.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40£25 he paid for that! He is going to double his money with ease,
0:31:40 > 0:31:42and I'm jealous.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46After starting this leg in Aghadowey,
0:31:46 > 0:31:48our experts travelled around Northern Ireland
0:31:48 > 0:31:51and have now made their way to Scotland,
0:31:51 > 0:31:54where they're motoring towards an auction in Galashiels.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58This is your sort of territory, isn't it?
0:31:58 > 0:32:01Well, I hail from Edinburgh and that...
0:32:01 > 0:32:05to a...to a...to a highlander, Edinburgh doesnae count.
0:32:05 > 0:32:06You're a lowlander.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08Historically, you're a Sassenach!
0:32:08 > 0:32:10You see, all of a sudden,
0:32:10 > 0:32:12your really strong Scottish accent is coming out.
0:32:12 > 0:32:17I haven't got a clue what you've just said in the last five minutes.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20Uh-oh, let's hope you can work out what's going on
0:32:20 > 0:32:23at Hall's Auctioneers and Valuers then.
0:32:23 > 0:32:24There's your auction room.
0:32:24 > 0:32:28- It's right by the river. This is lovely.- It beckons.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30The man with the gavel today is Michael Hall,
0:32:30 > 0:32:34so what does he make of our experts' lots?
0:32:34 > 0:32:41I think the sampler is probably the best of the items brought in.
0:32:41 > 0:32:46There's so much going on in it and it's got a nice strawberry border.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49The Stilton scoop is in good condition,
0:32:49 > 0:32:53which helps all these items, condition-wise is important.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58Settle down, folks. How are the old nerves, Paul?
0:33:01 > 0:33:02The knee barometer.
0:33:02 > 0:33:06I know. I can feel it. I can feel the vibration of your knees.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14First up, Catherine's Indian carved occasional table.
0:33:14 > 0:33:18£10 for the table. 10 for it. 10 is bid.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21At 10 for the table. Any more at 10?
0:33:21 > 0:33:24At £10. More, surely, there's a lot of work in it.
0:33:24 > 0:33:25It is a lot of work.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29Are we all finished? It will sell at 10. At 10.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Oh!
0:33:32 > 0:33:34That's a bad start.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38Looks like the luck penny didn't work after all.
0:33:38 > 0:33:42That was your weakest link, put to bed, move on.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45From now onwards, it's stratospheric.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Wise words, Paul.
0:33:47 > 0:33:51And fitting, as your riskiest punt is up next. The tea set.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55This is my risk. This is it.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58I can start it off at £16. I have £16 against you.
0:33:58 > 0:34:0217. 18. 19. 20. 21.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05- Any more at 21?- Oh, no! - 22.- It's going up.
0:34:05 > 0:34:0724. 25. 26.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Och! He's going up by the pound.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13You've got two people bidding on this.
0:34:13 > 0:34:18At 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22Pound by pound bidding, we could be here for a while.
0:34:22 > 0:34:2440. 41. 42. 43. 44.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27(Bump the increments, bump the increments!)
0:34:27 > 0:34:30You're doing it. This could really climb.
0:34:30 > 0:34:3248. 49. 50.
0:34:32 > 0:34:3452. 54.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37Oh, hang on. He's going up in £2 now.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48How did you do that, Paul Laidlaw?
0:34:48 > 0:34:51- 88. 90.- How do you do that?- £90.
0:34:51 > 0:34:55At £90. All finished? £90, it goes now.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58Oh, well done, you. That's brilliant.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00I've survived it. I'm still here.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07Thankfully, that's a profit for Paul after all of that.
0:35:07 > 0:35:10Who needs their oatcakes toasted, eh?
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Catherine's harnen stand is up next.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15- £10.- Oh, no.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56In the right, room that niche item might have faired better.
0:35:56 > 0:35:57Unlucky, Catherine.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Maybe glass is more this crowd's thing.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Baluster vase, anyone?

0:36:49 > 0:36:52I've warmed to this auction, I don't know about you.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40and it's not just me.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45Is that the reek of smuggery I smell, Paul?
0:37:46 > 0:37:49- Poor me.- I'll buy you a big cake after this.- Will you?
0:37:49 > 0:37:51- Will that help? - That really will.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07after auction costs.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09Unlucky, Catherine.

0:41:07 > 0:41:11It's a shame, cos they deserve to do a lot better than that.
0:41:11 > 0:41:13I mean, I'm glad!
0:41:16 > 0:41:18Hey, that's still a nice little profit, Paul.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Think of poor Catherine.
0:41:20 > 0:41:26This is it. This is my last chance to claw back SOMETHING today.

0:41:54 > 0:41:56I'm so happy.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00I bet you are. A well-deserved profit to end on.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Hot date with a big cream cake.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07Oh, yeah. Come on. Please, Paul. Come on.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Before cake, let's talk money.
0:42:11 > 0:42:15Catherine started this leg with £258.80.
0:42:15 > 0:42:21Unfortunately, she made a loss of £88.84 after paying auction costs...
0:42:23 > 0:42:27..leaving her £169.96.
0:42:29 > 0:42:35Paul began with £282 and made a whopping profit of £90.76
0:42:35 > 0:42:37after paying auction costs.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39He is today's winner,

0:42:47 > 0:42:51- Peaked late.- I peaked very late.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Onwards.

0:42:57 > 0:43:00Next time on Antiques roadshow,
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Catherine meets Sooty.
0:43:02 > 0:43:03Do I buy the brooch?
0:43:03 > 0:43:05I DO buy the brooch?
0:43:05 > 0:43:08And Paul gets to know Mr Pastry.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Don't judge me.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12HE CHUCKLES
