0:00:02 > 0:00:06The nation's favourite antiques experts... £200 each and one big challenge.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08Testing, testing!
0:00:08 > 0:00:12Who can make the most money buying and selling antiques as they scour the UK?
0:00:12 > 0:00:14Isn't that really odd?
0:00:14 > 0:00:18The aim is to trade up and hope each antique turns a profit.
0:00:18 > 0:00:22But it's not as easy as it sounds and there can only be one winner.
0:00:22 > 0:00:23Oh, no!
0:00:23 > 0:00:28So, will it be the highway to success or the B-road to bankruptcy?
0:00:28 > 0:00:31This is the Antiques Road Trip.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Oh, look James! Bluebells! Look at them!
0:00:40 > 0:00:42This week, we're in stunning Scotland
0:00:42 > 0:00:46and out on the antiques trail with Kate Bliss and James Lewis.
0:00:46 > 0:00:51Wearing short trousers, James Lewis made his first auction bid at just six years old.
0:00:51 > 0:00:56He's been honing his expertise ever since, but he still has an Achilles heel.
0:00:56 > 0:01:01I can see lots of tribal art. I am going to stop myself, before I get carried away.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Kate comes from an arty family.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Her father was an auctioneer.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10She's grown into a fine protege, but has occasional lapses of confidence.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13There's got to be a profit in that, hasn't there?
0:01:15 > 0:01:17# Oh, Flower of Scotland... #
0:01:17 > 0:01:20Oh, please! That's quite enough of that, thank you.
0:01:22 > 0:01:27James and Kate started their week in Helmsdale
0:01:27 > 0:01:31and are taking the roads, both high and low, to the delights of Ayr.
0:01:32 > 0:01:39Today, the road trip takes them from Buckie in Banffshire to a crunch auction in Dundee.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43But first, the Love Bug arrives in Cullen,
0:01:43 > 0:01:47where our experts can search within, before searching the town.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49- Wow, look at this place. - Looks good, doesn't it?
0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Should get a good view from up here. - We should.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56Kate needs all the help she can get. The first auction was quite scary for her.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01Kate did well in Buckie on yesterday's show,
0:02:01 > 0:02:04increasing her fighting fund from its initial £200
0:02:04 > 0:02:09to a proud £303.29 to start today's show.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13But James did really well with his first crack of the auction whip.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Technically, Mr Lewis needs a right good smacking,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19for using his business contacts to attract the right buyers.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22But, boy, did it work!
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- There you have it, then. - Oh, my God. Fantastic!
0:02:26 > 0:02:29James has rocketed into a whopping lead,
0:02:29 > 0:02:34with a thoroughly intimidating £603.57 to spend today.
0:02:34 > 0:02:39James' profits will all go to charity and whilst he won't share
0:02:39 > 0:02:42his profitable success, he could at least share some tactics.
0:02:42 > 0:02:48What I would certainly go for is things that you can't look up in a book. That's always my plan.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52- OK.- If it is something that has a set price and emotions aren't going to take over,
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- then I think we have very little chance.- I know what you mean.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58You want something that's a one-off or something that,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00"Oh, wow" - never seen one of those.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Even if it's stupid, like a horse's muzzle.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05If that makes profit, anything will.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06So, here's Cullen.
0:03:06 > 0:03:13Soft, sandy beaches and sea water so clean it gets the OK from the EU year after year.
0:03:13 > 0:03:20And if like me, you're a sucker for a handsome viaduct or two, then Cullen has some fantastic
0:03:20 > 0:03:2519th-Century engineering bestriding its pretty streets and tempting antiques shops.
0:03:25 > 0:03:30Could Kate find the killer items she needs to catch up with the mighty Mr Lewis?
0:03:30 > 0:03:36James is starting off in Tom's Shop, full of strange, wonderful oddities from around the world.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40Sometimes you have a feel when you walk in somewhere and your fingers
0:03:40 > 0:03:44start to tingle, because there are interesting things everywhere.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49It's good to hear James' hushed tones and proper respect for a well-maintained shop.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Testing! Testing! Oh, blimey.
0:03:53 > 0:03:59Yep, it's definitely working! Tom's shop has just the right mixture of peculiar
0:03:59 > 0:04:03and potentially profitable, to get James really excited.
0:04:03 > 0:04:04Now this is a gadget.
0:04:04 > 0:04:11- This is a quill cutter, so you take a quill from a goose or a swan. - Swans were the best, weren't they?
0:04:11 > 0:04:15- Not only were the swans the best, but the young male swan was called...a pen.- Yeah, of course.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19And that's why that's called a penknife.
0:04:19 > 0:04:26- Ah!- And you cut the quill at an angle and you put the end in there and then you press that down.
0:04:26 > 0:04:30There's a crunching sound and what comes out is a pen nib,
0:04:30 > 0:04:31with a slit in it.
0:04:31 > 0:04:36I've made quite a few, actually. It's an incredible gadget.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37That's 1820.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41What a fascinating item, the genesis of the ink pen and the pen knife,
0:04:41 > 0:04:44something the Swiss Army would salute.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48- I mean, for me this is why the antiques business is so interesting. - Of course, it is.
0:04:48 > 0:04:55Because I have to say, anything like the Dalton figures or the Beswick dogs, they just leave me so cold.
0:04:57 > 0:05:02It comes up for sale, you flick through the book, "Oh, yeah that's worth £30 pounds, I'll bid £20."
0:05:02 > 0:05:04And there's no heart or passion in it, is there?
0:05:04 > 0:05:09Following his heart, James finds something for his head. And it's African.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13The African bush is not a great place to sleep.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Believe me, I've done it and you get some very strange things
0:05:16 > 0:05:19crawling in places that you don't want them to crawl.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24And the way of stopping nasty little bugs crawling into your ears is to have one of these.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27And you would use this as a neck rest or a pillow and the technique
0:05:27 > 0:05:32would be to smear goat fat or goat grease down the uprights.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36This makes it sticky, it makes it slightly smelly, but it also prevents
0:05:36 > 0:05:39any nasty little bugs crawling up it, because they get their feet stuck.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42So, an interesting object. it's £35.
0:05:42 > 0:05:47Most people haven't got a clue what they are, so in a general sale,
0:05:47 > 0:05:50a difficult thing to sell but for me,
0:05:50 > 0:05:53if I'm buying from the heart, this is what I'd go for.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58I love it. I love it, but I just don't think it gives me a chance of a profit.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00James is finding it hard to let go.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04Has he found something for his head and his heart? And his wallet?
0:06:04 > 0:06:09Across town, today's underdog contender is just limbering up.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11This is a great place.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15It really reminds me of my dad's sale room when I was really small,
0:06:15 > 0:06:17cos he had a sale room in a church, just like this.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20In fact, it's even got the same sort of churchy smell.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22There's something special about Kate.
0:06:22 > 0:06:28Some irrepressible charm she has, a certain way with antique sellers,
0:06:28 > 0:06:31but I just can't quite put my finger on it.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33# She's a lady
0:06:33 > 0:06:37# Oh, whoa, who, she's a lady... #
0:06:37 > 0:06:40That's a bit different, isn't it? Quite decorative, isn't it?
0:06:40 > 0:06:44I like the fact that it's slightly misshapen, which shows that it's
0:06:44 > 0:06:51hand blown and you've go the pontil mark on the base there. But no name.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55Very pretty, Kate, but it is £65...
0:06:55 > 0:06:56What could you do that for?
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- 45.- 45. Mmm.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02It's very much in the Loetz style,
0:07:02 > 0:07:05but without the name...
0:07:05 > 0:07:10Johan Loetz began his Bohemian glassworks company in 1840,
0:07:10 > 0:07:13producing world-renowned and beautiful pieces.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17Along with Tiffany and Galle, Loetz showed at the Paris Exhibition
0:07:17 > 0:07:21of 1889 - the hallowed birthplace of Art Nouveau.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24But this piece is only a Loetz lookalike.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28Can the lady get a good price in her own style?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Can I be really cheeky and say £20?
0:07:30 > 0:07:32HE LAUGHS
0:07:32 > 0:07:3425. Go on.
0:07:34 > 0:07:3625?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39I'd really like £20...if you can.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Wow, Kate. You're really holding fast at 20.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45You're a hard, hard dealer.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Go on, then.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49- £20.- Yeah.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51OK, lovely. Thank you very much, indeed.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55Look at that. Kate's off to a flyer with her first purchase.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59Can she turn a faux Loetz into real money?
0:07:59 > 0:08:04Back with James, he's found a 19th-Century Japanese bonsai
0:08:04 > 0:08:09watering can...of all things(!)
0:08:09 > 0:08:12If it was really bargain basement, you want to get rid of it.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- 15 quid.- 15 quid. OK.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18That is a possibility.
0:08:18 > 0:08:26After writing his own future, James finds a scroll holder. Also 19th century, also Japanese.
0:08:26 > 0:08:27What an unusual thing.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30The decoration is really interesting. That's 18. OK, hang on.
0:08:30 > 0:08:36Suddenly, the £35 Ethiopian hardwood headrest is back in the picture too.
0:08:36 > 0:08:41James clearly wants a repeat of his auction success on yesterday's show.
0:08:41 > 0:08:47A global package, bought for £60, made a rather cool £340.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Who wouldn't want a sequel to that?
0:08:49 > 0:08:54Plus, a tribal war mask from Mali added to the mix, at £88.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58- What would be your best? - £85 and that's the end.
0:08:58 > 0:08:5985.
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Argh.
0:09:02 > 0:09:08Don't quibble, James. You've got over £600 to play with. Go wild!
0:09:08 > 0:09:10All right. Pound off for luck. £84.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11- £84.- Thank you.
0:09:11 > 0:09:18Not a rock bottom price, but this is an interesting global bundle and another high stakes bulk purchase.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21If anyone's playing the game here, it's James.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- OK, I need to pay you some money. - Jolly good.- I've got it somewhere.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Here we go.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30And just as the money is about to change hands, James' eye is drawn
0:09:30 > 0:09:35to one of his usual suspects - a handsome snuff box, at £14.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39- How much is that? - Oh, well, let's see.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41- It's £14.- Do it for nine?
0:09:41 > 0:09:43No, no, I couldn't do that.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47You're crucifying me again, but I'll do it for ten, because I like you.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- There you go. - Deal. Thank you. Have a good day.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Cheers. Bye.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Aware of the current vast profit chasm with James,
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Kate has hurried on to another shop and another would-be profit turner.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04It's interesting because some of the sheep are quietly nicely done,
0:10:04 > 0:10:07but this one, I think, is quite amateurish.
0:10:07 > 0:10:08He looks not very well, does he?
0:10:08 > 0:10:10That one there.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Maybe they looked more like that 100 years ago.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16- Maybe. Yeah, it's certainly a period canvas, isn't it?- Oh, yeah.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- How much has that got to be, Harry? - Well, I have £100 on it.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25- Sharp intake of breath!- Yeah, but... - Ouch.
0:10:25 > 0:10:30Can you feel it? I think Harry here is about to experience the Bliss effect -
0:10:30 > 0:10:34part winning charm, part steely resolve, part highwaywoman!
0:10:34 > 0:10:37How much does it have to be?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39How much does it "have" to be?
0:10:39 > 0:10:40How much does it HAVE to be?
0:10:40 > 0:10:44- Well, let's say we could let it go at £75.- Yeah.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46I can't see it at that.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50No? What do you see it at?
0:10:50 > 0:10:52£30. Go on, Harry.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55That's giving it to you!
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Wow, even I think £30 is quite low.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02Could there soon be some wanted posters of this highwaywoman around Cullen?
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- 55.- 30.- 55.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10It's got to be £30, I think.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11It's got to be £30?
0:11:11 > 0:11:17Wow. Well, it's the worst £30 I've ever earned, but OK.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19- OK!- OK. It's a deal.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Thank you very much, indeed.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25Well done, Kate, although I doubt poor Harry will be dining out tonight.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29I don't know what to make of that I hope I've done the right thing.
0:11:29 > 0:11:35£30 doesn't sound like a lot of money for a Victorian oil, even though it does need a bit
0:11:35 > 0:11:41of a clean. It's a great Scottish subject, so I hope the people of Dundee like Scottish sheep.
0:11:41 > 0:11:46James has also moved on to a new shop and a new object of interest.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Golly... What an odd thing.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Isn't that really odd?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57But not so odd that you're putting it straight back down.
0:11:57 > 0:12:02You can see a little bit of damage around his neck there, but he's a strange object, that one.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06Priced at £45, the figurine is silver plated and looks a bit like
0:12:06 > 0:12:11a St George and the Dragon, but then, it also looks like a lot of things.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14It's what you call, 'interesting to look at'.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Made in Hungary, so it's not that early,
0:12:17 > 0:12:20but certainly different.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23I don't like the casting, I don't like the quality. I like the stones.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Nice mahogany base.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28So there's a lot James doesn't like about this odd item,
0:12:28 > 0:12:33but surely anything worthless wouldn't have a nice mahogany base?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36I hate the fact that it says 'Made in Hungary' on the sword.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Methinks, Lewis doth protest too much!
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Interestingly, the George and the Dragon myth
0:12:42 > 0:12:46also exists in old Hungarian folklore.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50Plus, this statue does have some possibly interesting encrustations.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Oh, I don't know.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Well, let's put it this way, after you've run it down,
0:12:55 > 0:12:58if you don't buy it, I'll probably throw it away!
0:12:58 > 0:13:01There are loads of things in its favour and I don't want to run it down.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04I actually think it's really nice. No, I don't.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08I think it's really saleable, although I don't know who to.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Oh, I don't know. 25 quid.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Do you want to sell it?
0:13:13 > 0:13:16Ah, defamation, followed by a very low offer.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Nice tactic, James.
0:13:20 > 0:13:25Meanwhile, the Love Bug is taking Kate on an important date.
0:13:25 > 0:13:30# She's a lady Whoa, whoa, whoa, she's a lady... #
0:13:30 > 0:13:34Kate is a qualified expert on jewellery and silver,
0:13:34 > 0:13:39so she's backtracking on the road trip to Banff, in search of treasure.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Banff has a kooky mix of architectural styles.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Once a town of silversmithing,
0:13:45 > 0:13:50which, in the 19th century, probably supplied the Highland Lairds
0:13:50 > 0:13:52who would spend their winter in warmer Banff.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Hi. You must be David. How do you do?
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- Welcome to Banff Museum. - Great to be here. Lovely.
0:13:57 > 0:14:03Curator David Bertie is here to show Kate the best of the Banff Museum.
0:14:03 > 0:14:09Just behind the front door, the jewel in their collection is this silver teapot.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13It's dated from around 1720, but the maker is unknown.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15It's a bullet-shaped teapot.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16- Is that right?- That's correct.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21And typical of that very early period, really early 18th century.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25That's correct. If you look on the bottom of it, the mark for Banff
0:14:25 > 0:14:30is very clear but unfortunately the maker's mark is very unclear.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34Famous Banff silversmiths, like George Elder and John Keith,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36were known as hammermen
0:14:36 > 0:14:39because of the makers' marks they left on their wares.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42John Keith is interesting because he used a fish
0:14:42 > 0:14:47in addition to his initials, and B for Banff.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Oh, yes, I can see there.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53B for Banff. And it's quite clearly a fish, isn't it?
0:14:53 > 0:14:56And that was his symbol?
0:14:56 > 0:14:59He used that symbol. It seems to be unique to him.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03Kate's got an auction mountain to climb to beat her travelling partner
0:15:03 > 0:15:07so a nice piece of Banff silverware could set her up nicely.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Too bad she can't afford any!
0:15:10 > 0:15:12That teapot was acquired
0:15:12 > 0:15:16about, um...25 years ago,
0:15:16 > 0:15:20and at that time was £9,500.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24£9,500. And I would have thought it would be significantly more now.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26It would be very much more now.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30Kate's still in love with this fabulous Scottish silver.
0:15:30 > 0:15:34And the bizarre Hungarian silver is still troubling and exciting James.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38Well, will you take 25 quid for it? What do you think?
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- Up to you.- £25, there you go. Deal.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Well, let's make it £28.
0:15:44 > 0:15:45£28, yeah?
0:15:45 > 0:15:49Raising your offer? James is more optimistic than he's letting on.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53I don't know. It might make 25 quid, it might make 200 quid. I really don't know.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56If it does do well, come and see me and I'll buy you lunch.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00- We might take you up on that. - If it makes 24 quid, don't bother!
0:16:00 > 0:16:02We'll buy YOU lunch!
0:16:02 > 0:16:04You can buy me lunch!
0:16:06 > 0:16:08I mean, it's totally grotesque, isn't it?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10You can say it now, I've bought it.
0:16:10 > 0:16:15Yes, but one man's grotesque is another man's strangely attractive.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18And James clearly sees potential for a profit.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21And before we offend any more shopkeepers,
0:16:21 > 0:16:24the day is drawing to an end, our experts need shelter.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26And James needs to warm his cockles.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Hey, James!
0:16:28 > 0:16:31- Brrrr!- Oh, are you absolutely perished?
0:16:31 > 0:16:34If it's like this in the summer, what's it like in the winter?
0:16:34 > 0:16:38We'd better get you a cup of tea or something. Get you warmed up.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Next day, they leave the Highlands behind them
0:16:50 > 0:16:53and our pair head further south on their antiques search.
0:16:53 > 0:16:58- Lovely countryside, isn't it? - Yeah. It's so different from the Highlands, isn't it?
0:17:00 > 0:17:02They're admiring the Perthshire scenery
0:17:02 > 0:17:05en route to the village of Dunkeld
0:17:05 > 0:17:09with some auction booty in the boot to sell in Dundee.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13So far Kate's spent £50 on two items -
0:17:13 > 0:17:16the Art Nouveau glassware and the landscape oil painting.
0:17:16 > 0:17:21She's got £253.29 to play with today.
0:17:23 > 0:17:28James has gone wild again and spent £122 on three lots.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31The global bundle, the handsome snuff box
0:17:31 > 0:17:33and the interesting silver statue.
0:17:33 > 0:17:38But he's got buckets of money left, with a whopping £481.57 at his disposal.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Cheers, bye.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46The name Dunkeld comes from the Gaelic for "fort in the wood".
0:17:46 > 0:17:50In the 9th century it was an important religious centre
0:17:50 > 0:17:52for the early Celtic church, and today,
0:17:52 > 0:17:56it's one of the most complete 18th century towns in Scotland
0:17:56 > 0:17:59thanks to a vigorous restoration project
0:17:59 > 0:18:03by the National Trust of Scotland in the 1950s and '60s.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05It's a new town, and guess what?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Kate's in an antique shop. - Oh, the clocks are working.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12David, the owner, sources his stock from around the world
0:18:12 > 0:18:15but he also has some more familiar local items.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18And this, in terms of tartan ware,
0:18:18 > 0:18:20this really is a Rolls-Royce piece, isn't it?
0:18:20 > 0:18:25Queen Victoria's fondness for all things Scottish helped establish
0:18:25 > 0:18:29tartan ware as sought-after souvenirs in the 19th century.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Everyday items were tartan-ed up.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36Sewing boxes, pen trays and in this case, a tea caddy.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Beautifully painted on the top.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41Not transfer printed but actually hand-painted,
0:18:41 > 0:18:44and the light in that landscape is just beautiful.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46And then you've got the tartan,
0:18:46 > 0:18:49which is... well, it was paper, wasn't it?
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Put onto usually box wood and then lacquered to preserve it.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56And then you've got the traces of the lead lining on the inside
0:18:56 > 0:19:00which shows that it was for tea. I think they're absolutely lovely.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03But how much are you charging for that, David?
0:19:03 > 0:19:06- That is £2,200.- Right.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08How much?!
0:19:08 > 0:19:11This won't be a souvenir for Kate to invest in,
0:19:11 > 0:19:14but David kindly takes her to the bargain basement,
0:19:14 > 0:19:17where antiques road trippers can usually be found.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20I like that knocker. That's lovely, isn't it?
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Polished steel with a lovely, um...
0:19:23 > 0:19:28- You can have that for £30. - £30 doesn't sound good to Kate.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32- Here comes that ruthless charm. Just look at her look.- 15?
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Yes! Well, you may as well steal something from me.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37You're a good man. Thank you very much.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Great. We've got something lovely.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43James, meanwhile, is a man on a mission.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46I need to buy something rather quickly.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49He's actually bought six separate items already,
0:19:49 > 0:19:53but James clearly needs his daily shopping fix.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57So he's backtracking slightly in search of an antique shop
0:19:57 > 0:20:00nearby, but not in, the town of Blair Atholl.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04This doesn't look good. We're in the middle of nowhere again,
0:20:04 > 0:20:06we're certainly not in Blair Atholl any more.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Oh dear. The final buy might prove elusive.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14Well, if it's not easy to find, let's hope nobody else has found it.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Chance would be a fine thing, James!
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Oh, no!
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Oh, my word.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24This is American tourist heaven.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Oh, no!
0:20:26 > 0:20:27That's rather snobby, James!
0:20:27 > 0:20:30Just because it's not your idea of heaven,
0:20:30 > 0:20:33doesn't mean it can't be fun for all our treasured visitors
0:20:33 > 0:20:35to these inclusive Isles.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Tut tut!
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- Hello there.- Hi. Good morning. - Nice to see you.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43So this wasn't what I was expecting.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46I was expecting some really highly polished,
0:20:46 > 0:20:48lots of big fancy glitzy furniture.
0:20:48 > 0:20:53Well, I'm sure Duncan here will be thrilled with your glowing endorsement, James!
0:20:53 > 0:20:56That's very kind of you. I start at £5 and go up from there.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59- No, it's a good mix.- Thanks.
0:21:00 > 0:21:05There's a little Sampson Mordan pencil,
0:21:05 > 0:21:06without the pencil!
0:21:06 > 0:21:11But it's, uh... You can get them to fit into those little slots.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15But it's a nice example.
0:21:15 > 0:21:2119th century silversmith Sampson Mordan is now highly collectible
0:21:21 > 0:21:25so this letter opener-cum-pencil holder is worth a second glance.
0:21:26 > 0:21:3175, I could do that for 45 if that's of any use?
0:21:31 > 0:21:34- 45. - I'm sorry we don't have the pencil.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37We need to find one of these little silver ones,
0:21:37 > 0:21:40don't we, and put it in there! 45, OK.
0:21:40 > 0:21:45James is not convinced, but back in Dunkeld, is Kate going for gold?
0:21:47 > 0:21:49What could you do for me on that?
0:21:49 > 0:21:52- £80.- Hmm.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54I'm sure there's a profit left in that.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57It's nine carat gold, lovely citrine.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Citrine is a variety of smoky quartz.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Scottish citrine also goes by the name Cairngorm
0:22:03 > 0:22:05as that's where it comes from.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09And some even believe that the stone symbolises prosperity.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Here's hoping.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14I think it's just slightly bent there.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Just a tiny bit of damage there.
0:22:18 > 0:22:19Oh, yeah.
0:22:19 > 0:22:24Hmm, really? Still, it's a good tactical ploy to point out the faults.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26However small!
0:22:26 > 0:22:28I'd really like 55.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30I would really like 95!
0:22:30 > 0:22:35Or in fact if I could, I'd really like 120 for it, but...
0:22:35 > 0:22:40It is a nice piece, but I think it's 55 for me.
0:22:40 > 0:22:41OK.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- Just for me?- Go on, all right.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49- 55?- Yeah. There you go, 55.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53Thank you very much indeed. I think that will give me a chance.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55I'm sure it'll give you a big chance. I'm certain.
0:22:55 > 0:23:00We'll find out soon enough if the citrine will bring prosperity Kate's way.
0:23:00 > 0:23:05And along the road, James has found something which really floats his boat.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07How about the nef?
0:23:07 > 0:23:12Now that is Dutch silver, it is a 20th century one.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15God, if that was original! Gee!
0:23:15 > 0:23:19I know. I had to buy it, it was just decoration.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Yeah, great object.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Original 18th century one like that, £20,000.
0:23:26 > 0:23:32Even as a 20th century copy, the nef has a £2,200 price tag.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35James probably needs to adjust his sights somewhat.
0:23:35 > 0:23:40- How about some nice Scottish, Dundee, provincial silver.- Aaah!
0:23:40 > 0:23:43It's a classic Scottish silver teaspoon shape, isn't it?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- We are going to Dundee.- Well...
0:23:45 > 0:23:47We've got a bit of wear on that one
0:23:47 > 0:23:51and obviously it's been redone but that one's lovely and crisp.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52Still got its tip.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56- Nice. The tip usually gets worn away.- Yeah.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58When I'm doing house clearances,
0:23:58 > 0:24:01you often find one teaspoon in the kitchen drawer.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05The lady's living on her own so she's put one in the kitchen drawer
0:24:05 > 0:24:09and the other five are put away in the dining room and kept crisp.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11She's got her favourite one...
0:24:11 > 0:24:14- And I bet that was the kitchen drawer one!- Probably.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18The ticket price on the spoons is a solid £110.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20It's not like James can't afford it.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24He still has close to £500 to spend, should he so choose.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26How much are they?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29I can knock these down now for £90. There you are.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31£90. Well, I have to say, it doesn't seem a lot.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Hang on. James has stopped haggling.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38Is this an attack of conscience or a whole new tactic emerging?
0:24:38 > 0:24:43The pencil holder and letter opener still has allure, but it is an incomplete item.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46As it hasn't got a pencil in it at all...
0:24:48 > 0:24:51- 35.- 35. OK.
0:24:51 > 0:24:5335...
0:24:53 > 0:24:57Hmm. Is that going to be a killer without the pencil?
0:24:57 > 0:25:01I think we're all waiting for negotiations to start,
0:25:01 > 0:25:03but no sign from James yet.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06What would you sell the whole little package for?
0:25:06 > 0:25:08- The spoons and the pencil?- Yeah.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12110 and that's it. I can't do any better.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15I'm not going to haggle. You've been very fair.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17- Thank you very much.- You're welcome.
0:25:17 > 0:25:23No real negotiating. A sure sign James knows he's onto something.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27Reunited, our keen antiques shoppers are now changing tack a little.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Better get some juice.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Some Beetle juice.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Beetle juice!
0:25:33 > 0:25:37They're heading westward to the small village of Aberfeldy,
0:25:37 > 0:25:42situated on the River Tay, a stone's throw from Loch Tay.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47James is satisfied with his buys but Kate's not sure she has enough
0:25:47 > 0:25:51in her shopping basket and is keen to check out one more opportunity.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Let's hope there's a fusty old antiques shop owner,
0:25:54 > 0:25:57preferably male, for her to use her charms on.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Ah! It's Olivia. Good luck, Kate!
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Now this is really unusual. What is this?
0:26:05 > 0:26:09If you strike this down the side you'll get a spark,
0:26:09 > 0:26:13and that will enable you to light whatever it is.
0:26:13 > 0:26:18But this is the selling point, isn't it? It's beautifully enamelled
0:26:18 > 0:26:21and of course, half-naked ladies do sell well.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24She's the only one in the shop.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26What could you do that for?
0:26:26 > 0:26:31It's 24, but I could do it for 20.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35I don't think we can go any lower than that
0:26:35 > 0:26:38because it's rather special, isn't it?
0:26:38 > 0:26:4020 pounds, that's what it's got to be?
0:26:40 > 0:26:42- Yeah.- OK.
0:26:42 > 0:26:47Well, either Olivia has cut the wind from Kate's haggling sails,
0:26:47 > 0:26:52or maybe Kate's conscience says that £20 is a fair price?
0:26:52 > 0:26:54I'm going with option one, frankly.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00Now the travelling companions must reveal the fruits of their days' searching.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03It's show and tell time.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06This is an awful lot. I really wish I hadn't...
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Come on, get it out, I want to see... Oh, goodness.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Hey, I love the bamboo handles.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13- I liked it, it was Japanese. - Lovely bamboo.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16- I thought it had a tactile feel. And...- Don't tell me...
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Now I know what this is.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23- Head rest.- Yeah. - What do you think? How's the look?
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Well, it's not my thing.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27It's not my thing either! Oh, don't!
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- What's this? - Well, that's a little scroll holder.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33That's nice. How much?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35It was 84 pounds as a group.
0:27:35 > 0:27:40Bought as a single lot, these four will be sold as one lot.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43And from global artefacts to Art Nouveau.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Austrian glass. Yeah, I like that.
0:27:45 > 0:27:50- Well, I think that would make 40 to 60 at auction.- OK.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52You paid like 20 or 25, didn't you?
0:27:52 > 0:27:54- 20.- Did you? Well, that's a really good buy.
0:27:54 > 0:27:59What will Kate's expert eye make of James' silver figurine?
0:27:59 > 0:28:01- What do you think? - I think it's lovely.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05I do. I wasn't sure in the shop, and it's grown on me and grown on me.
0:28:05 > 0:28:09It's very, very, highly decorative, isn't it?
0:28:09 > 0:28:12And you can imagine that in a big Bond Street gallery
0:28:12 > 0:28:15with some horrendously high price on it.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16- How much?- 28 quid.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19NO! That's a steal!
0:28:19 > 0:28:24Really? Certainly this statue is interesting because it's so unusual.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29And James did advise Kate to go for items you can't look up in a book!
0:28:29 > 0:28:30I can see 100, 150.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33It might be more.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36Kate's oil painting is next to be scrutinised.
0:28:36 > 0:28:39- What did you pay?- I paid 30.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41- Oh, that's fine.- Do you think?
0:28:41 > 0:28:46- You're not going to lose anything. - Well, that's the one I was slightly worried about.
0:28:46 > 0:28:50You think it's OK? I just was worried about this chap down here.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54- I didn't think he looked very good. - Well, put the lot number over him!
0:28:54 > 0:28:57- Your go.- Yes, OK. Now I know I'm predictable.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59BOTH: A snuff box!
0:28:59 > 0:29:03- You like your snuff boxes. - I know I do.- Let's have a look.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05Well, I like the embossing.
0:29:05 > 0:29:07It wasn't expensive. It was £14 reduced to a tenner.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10Well, there we go, for a tenner...
0:29:10 > 0:29:16This is a...19th century, steel,
0:29:16 > 0:29:20- door knocker. - No, I like it. How much?
0:29:20 > 0:29:25- Well, it's a fun piece, it was £15 so I think...- There's no loss there.
0:29:25 > 0:29:30And now for James' letter opener-cum-pencil holder... minus the pencil.
0:29:30 > 0:29:35Oh, I like that, that's really stylish with the initials and 1934.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38I don't think it matters the pencil isn't there.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41- Hopefully not.- Oh, it is in there! It's wedged in. Yes, it's wedged in.
0:29:41 > 0:29:43There, look!
0:29:43 > 0:29:46- Oh, you brilliant thing!- Well done!
0:29:46 > 0:29:50Kate clearly has the keenest eyes on this road trip.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Shame she didn't go to James' shop instead.
0:29:54 > 0:29:58I never noticed that. I said, "If only the pencil was in there,"
0:29:58 > 0:30:00and he said "Yes, I've been looking for ages."
0:30:00 > 0:30:03It's come out of its little holder. How much?
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Well, now with the pencil, it seems really cheap.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10I bought that... I was going to split them up...and these.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14Effectively the pencil holder only cost him £35
0:30:14 > 0:30:18because he paid £110 for that and the teaspoons.
0:30:18 > 0:30:22And either selling these in Dundee is going to be a master stroke
0:30:22 > 0:30:23or a complete failure.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25And you bought them with this.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27- 110 for the two.- For the two?!
0:30:27 > 0:30:30If I make a profit I owe you one.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32OK, what next?
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Kate's potential prosperity brooch, that's what.
0:30:35 > 0:30:41Scottish, citrine, in a gold little...
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Tiny bit of damage here.
0:30:43 > 0:30:47Well, if you don't spot a bargain, in gemstones then nobody will.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51Whether it was a bargain at £55 remains to be seen.
0:30:51 > 0:30:55Last to be revealed is Kate's enamelled topless lady lighter.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57Everlasting match.
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Is that what it's called?
0:31:00 > 0:31:04So this strikes along here and there you have a match,
0:31:04 > 0:31:07and this is soaked in something to make it strike?
0:31:07 > 0:31:13Yeah, fuel's in there. It's been well worn, strike it there, bingo.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15The everlasting match.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17Now that's got a bit of potential.
0:31:17 > 0:31:21- How much was it?- 20.- Oooh!
0:31:21 > 0:31:25- That's cheap. - Well, they said quirky sells well.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27And let's hope it does!
0:31:27 > 0:31:30- I'm getting excited now. - Let's pack up. I'm getting eaten.
0:31:30 > 0:31:31Is it the midges?
0:31:31 > 0:31:33Kate might be itching to get to auction
0:31:33 > 0:31:36but how does she feel about James' buys?
0:31:36 > 0:31:39I have to say I'm not a huge fan of his snuff box
0:31:39 > 0:31:41or his tribal art, it's really not my thing.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45But I am seriously worried about his St George and the Dragon,
0:31:45 > 0:31:47I think it's a really chancey thing.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50I don't know how old it is but I think it might do well.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Not surprised with that little citrine,
0:31:52 > 0:31:56it's a lovely thing and if Kate says it's cheap then it is.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Um...me and jewellery, they don't go.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01I wouldn't know a good citrine if it hit me between the eyes.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05But that little everlasting match, I think that's her star buy.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08And that could really do 50-80 pounds,
0:32:08 > 0:32:11possibly even a bit more, so I think she's done well.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13Today's finale is upon us,
0:32:13 > 0:32:18so James and Kate head east, to the sweet city of Dundee.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Sometimes famous for its fruitcake,
0:32:20 > 0:32:24Dundee is also the birthplace of Desperate Dan
0:32:24 > 0:32:27from the world's longest-running comic, The Dandy.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Publishers DC Thomson are based here.
0:32:30 > 0:32:36And back where she was built is Scott of the Antarctic's vessel, the RSS Discovery.
0:32:36 > 0:32:41About to boldly step out in their own icy, uncertain future
0:32:41 > 0:32:45are Kate and James, as the Love Bug arrives in town.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48I suppose I have got expectations, if you ask me honestly.
0:32:48 > 0:32:52I'm hoping secretly that I'm going to make a bit of profit
0:32:52 > 0:32:56and I actually feel a bit more confident about these items
0:32:56 > 0:32:58than I did about the first lot.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01- I think we bought better things. - I think we have too.
0:33:01 > 0:33:07At the auction house, Curr and Dewar, what are auctioneer Stephen Dewar's hit picks?
0:33:07 > 0:33:09There are collectors for Dundee silver.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11You find once these collectors have them,
0:33:11 > 0:33:14they keep hold of them, they are scarce and sell very well.
0:33:14 > 0:33:20There's a small, striker lighter, that's a pretty thing, collectible item,
0:33:20 > 0:33:23not desperately valuable, but a nice collectible piece.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29Kate started today's show with £303.29
0:33:29 > 0:33:33and boldly spent £140 on five auction lots.
0:33:33 > 0:33:37James started with his full £603.57
0:33:37 > 0:33:42and cautiously spent just £232, on five lots.
0:33:42 > 0:33:46Up first is James' four-piece global menagerie.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48Nice group lot.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50Interest starts me at 25 pounds.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Not a good start.
0:33:52 > 0:33:5645, 50, five, 60, five,
0:33:56 > 0:34:0170, five, 80, five, 90, five.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04- Nice profit, isn't it?- No.
0:34:04 > 0:34:08At 95, any advance? We will sell.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13After the auction house takes commission, that's a loss for James.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15I paid too much, simple as that.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19The snuff box bought from the same dealer is up next.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21At £15, opening commission at £15.
0:34:21 > 0:34:24Wow, James really looks worried. That's a first!
0:34:24 > 0:34:29Any advance on £30?
0:34:29 > 0:34:31A gentlemanly profit there.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34That wipes out the loss from lot one.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38Will the Sampson Mordan pencil holder and letter opener
0:34:38 > 0:34:39also cut a dash?
0:34:39 > 0:34:42I think it ought to make 120.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46That's exactly what I thought, 100, 110 something like that.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48And a £60 start, £60 is bid.
0:34:48 > 0:34:5270, 80, 90, 100, and ten.
0:34:52 > 0:34:56In the room on my left-hand side at 110...
0:34:56 > 0:35:01- Well done him.- That you paid for that and the spoons!
0:35:01 > 0:35:04To be fair, Kate deserves a finder's fee
0:35:04 > 0:35:06for spotting the lead in that pencil.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09Kate's first lot is the attractive everlasting match.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12It's got flair, it's got style, it's got...
0:35:12 > 0:35:15Well, look!
0:35:15 > 0:35:19- I'm really nervous now. - Come on, it's got to do well.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22Interest starts me off on this one at £30.
0:35:22 > 0:35:2735, sir? 40, five, 50, five,
0:35:27 > 0:35:29£55 on the left.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31For 55, your last chance.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34Oh! Thank goodness for that.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36A buxom profit for Kate.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39And now it's her single French knocker.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42£15 bid, at £15 it is for the door knocker,
0:35:42 > 0:35:46at £15 is bid, 22, 25, 28.
0:35:46 > 0:35:50- At £28.- Come on!- Any advance on £28?
0:35:50 > 0:35:53It's your last chance at 28 now.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56A small profit is still a profit,
0:35:56 > 0:35:58but Kate really needs a miracle
0:35:58 > 0:36:02to have any chance of catching up with James' strong lead.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06The Hungarian figure is his next lot,
0:36:06 > 0:36:10and James has just spotted the dealer who sold it to him.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13She wished me luck beforehand, but now I really don't want it to make
0:36:13 > 0:36:15too much money or I might feel guilty!
0:36:15 > 0:36:18Interest on this one opens me up at £100.
0:36:18 > 0:36:26At 100 it is, 120 sir, 140, 160, 180, 200 new bidder, 220,
0:36:26 > 0:36:29at £220 now.
0:36:29 > 0:36:34Fantastic. £200 profit!
0:36:34 > 0:36:36192 to be precise, James.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Congratulations!
0:36:38 > 0:36:41And it looks like you owe someone lunch - a big one!
0:36:41 > 0:36:44Kate's Art Nouveau is next to take the stage.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47Let's hope it brings the house down for her.
0:36:47 > 0:36:5035 pounds it is, the iridescent vase at 35.
0:36:50 > 0:36:5340, five, 50, five,
0:36:53 > 0:36:58- 60. At £60, are you all done? - There's no swaying him.
0:36:58 > 0:37:03A nice profit for Kate, but she needed more of a song there.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Three times what you paid for it, amazing.
0:37:05 > 0:37:10Will James' silver spoons play the tune he wants to hear?
0:37:10 > 0:37:14Dundee hallmarks. Interest starts me off at £150.
0:37:14 > 0:37:18160, 180, 200, 220.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Wow, this is looking pretty good.
0:37:20 > 0:37:24The bidders of Dundee clearly love their Dundee silver.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26At £220 now.
0:37:26 > 0:37:30Another roaring crowd-pleaser for James.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33Surely his lead is untouchable now?
0:37:33 > 0:37:36I've got to go to the shops you're going to, I think.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39Kate's next hopeful is the citrine brooch.
0:37:39 > 0:37:43Can this mystic stone bring fortune in abundance?
0:37:43 > 0:37:47- A lowly start at £15.- Ohh!
0:37:47 > 0:37:5120, 22, 25, 30, 32.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53This is really cheap.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55Last chance.
0:37:55 > 0:37:59A crushing result and an ill-timed loss.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02Kate's hit a slump in every sense.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05Can the oil painting bring her back to life?
0:38:05 > 0:38:08It looks good from here, doesn't it?
0:38:08 > 0:38:11Because you're not close up.
0:38:11 > 0:38:1220 pounds is bid.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15- At 20 now, any advance?- Oh, come on.
0:38:15 > 0:38:1922, 25. Are you sure? Go on!
0:38:19 > 0:38:21- Go on...- It's for nothing!
0:38:21 > 0:38:2728, £28, any advance on £28 now?
0:38:27 > 0:38:29Last chance... 30, sir, thank you.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33At £30 on the left-hand side.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35At £30 now, any advance?
0:38:37 > 0:38:41Oh, Kate, once the commission comes off, that's another loss for you.
0:38:41 > 0:38:46And today's been another massive success for mighty Mr Lewis.
0:38:46 > 0:38:53James started this leg with a hefty £603.57 and made a great profit,
0:38:53 > 0:38:56after commission, of £324.04.
0:38:56 > 0:39:03He now has an eye-popping £927.61 to splash about tomorrow.
0:39:03 > 0:39:07Kate began round two with £303.29
0:39:07 > 0:39:12and made a shy, retiring profit of £28.86.
0:39:12 > 0:39:19So she sets out tomorrow still lagging way behind with £332.15.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21That's a third of James' budget.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24is there any way back from here?
0:39:24 > 0:39:28The thing is with this game, you can just find one object
0:39:28 > 0:39:30that can transform the whole thing.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33We're not even halfway through this road trip,
0:39:33 > 0:39:36and I've got fighting spirit left in me.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38In fact I haven't even started yet.
0:39:38 > 0:39:43- Both in profit. That's the key. - Both in profit. Onwards and upwards!
0:39:43 > 0:39:45Next time on the Antiques Road Trip,
0:39:45 > 0:39:49Kate and James head for round three at auction in Edinburgh.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Kate tries to make friends.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55- 20?!- 20.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57James tries our patience.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59I'm feeling very sorry for myself.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02And they both try their best on the antiques trail.
