0:00:02 > 0:00:04It's the nation's favourite antiques experts,

0:00:04 > 0:00:06- with £200 each...- I love that.

0:00:06 > 0:00:11..A classic car and a goal - to scour Britain for antiques.

0:00:11 > 0:00:12Yippee!

0:00:12 > 0:00:13My heart's slightly racing!

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.

0:00:18 > 0:00:22There'll be worthy winners and valiant losers.

0:00:22 > 0:00:23Evening all.

0:00:23 > 0:00:25So, will it be the high road to glory

0:00:25 > 0:00:27or the slow road to disaster?

0:00:27 > 0:00:30Johnny, will we end up in a dead end?

0:00:30 > 0:00:32This is the Antiques Road Trip!

0:00:32 > 0:00:34Yeah!

0:00:39 > 0:00:42This week we have a brand new pair of experts

0:00:42 > 0:00:45packing their suitcases for a Road Trip adventure.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48Anita Manning and Jonathan Pratt.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53They're kicking off north of the border in Bonnie Scotland.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55Och, aye, the noo.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03I do like seeing the rolling hills

0:01:03 > 0:01:05and I do like the grass and the smell of the cow poo.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07SHE LAUGHS

0:01:07 > 0:01:09All that sort of stuff.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Sorry, Jonathan, it's not the country we're starting in,

0:01:12 > 0:01:14it's the biggest city in Scotland.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17# I belong to Glesca

0:01:17 > 0:01:19# Dear old Glesca toon

0:01:19 > 0:01:21# But there's something the matter with Glesca

0:01:21 > 0:01:25# Cos it's going around and round... #

0:01:25 > 0:01:27Anita Manning belongs to Glasgow

0:01:27 > 0:01:31and was the first female auctioneer in Scotland.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33And she knows what she likes.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35I love Art Nouveau.

0:01:35 > 0:01:38And she knows how to make grown men wince.

0:01:38 > 0:01:40Could these be bought for five?

0:01:40 > 0:01:41- £5?- Mm-hm.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43HE SQUIRMS

0:01:45 > 0:01:46This is Jonathan Pratt.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49He's also an auctioneer

0:01:49 > 0:01:52and also very, very decisive(!)

0:01:52 > 0:01:54I don't know what to do!

0:01:54 > 0:01:57And he's rather an astute fellow.

0:01:57 > 0:01:59I guess stuffed heads is off the menu, though.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03Our couple of darling antiques experts

0:02:03 > 0:02:07will begin their adventure with £200 each.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11And the chariot of choice is the stylish 1964 MG.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15- I'm nervous about this.- Why?

0:02:15 > 0:02:16Just because

0:02:16 > 0:02:19I did so badly in the last two!

0:02:19 > 0:02:23Forget about that. We're here just to have a nice time.

0:02:23 > 0:02:27Oh, dear. Has Jonathan got a bout of the old nerves?

0:02:27 > 0:02:33Wonder why they're stopping in the middle of the road, too.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Anita and Jonathan are travelling over 400 miles,

0:02:36 > 0:02:39from the city of Glasgow

0:02:39 > 0:02:42all the way to Llangefni, on the island of Anglesey.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46The first pin on the map is the bustling city of Glasgow,

0:02:46 > 0:02:49and they will auction in the Renfrewshire town of Paisley.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51We're coming up to George Square...

0:02:51 > 0:02:54with the City Chambers here.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Who's this chap here?

0:02:56 > 0:02:57That's Robert Peel, there.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00I think that chap's Queen Victoria.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02THEY LAUGH

0:03:02 > 0:03:04Glasgow is renowned

0:03:04 > 0:03:06for its strong shipbuilding history

0:03:06 > 0:03:08and wondrous architecture.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11During the Victorian and Edwardian times, it was known

0:03:11 > 0:03:15as "the second city of the British Empire."

0:03:15 > 0:03:16But, oh, dear.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21They've arrived and run into a spot of bother.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24This is the pride of Glasgow police!

0:03:26 > 0:03:31Anita loves a man in uniform. Well, several of them, actually.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37With the help of our boys in blue, they've got to safety.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40We're not going to get very far with that thing.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43We have a long, long way to go.

0:03:43 > 0:03:47Road Trip won't be a Road Trip without a good old breakdown, hey?

0:03:47 > 0:03:50I think we should have a wee walk in Glasgow.

0:03:50 > 0:03:54Our first shops are just there.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57You're a local. Yeah, I'll take you round.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00Good job Anita knows the city like the back of her hand.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03She knows exactly where the antiques shops are.

0:04:03 > 0:04:08# There she was just a-walkin' down the street, singin'

0:04:08 > 0:04:11# Doo-wah-diddy, diddy-dum, diddy-doo... #

0:04:11 > 0:04:15Well, Jonathan, your shop's just down there.

0:04:15 > 0:04:16You have 200 quid.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Good luck, Johnny.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Thank you. And you. Take care.

0:04:20 > 0:04:21See you later.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25Let's follow Anita. Her first shop of the day is Vintage & Retro,

0:04:25 > 0:04:27owned by John.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29- Anita!- Hello, John.

0:04:29 > 0:04:30- Hello.- It's lovely to see you.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32And you.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Big kisses at this time of the day?

0:04:34 > 0:04:39I suppose she knows everyone round here.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45This is a lovely piece.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46Absolutely lovely.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48It's a little biscuit barrel.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51The glass is acid-etched here,

0:04:51 > 0:04:54with this Art Nouveau pattern.

0:04:54 > 0:05:00It's sitting on this wonderful WMF mount.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02I love it to bits.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06This biscuit barrel was made by the highly prized,

0:05:06 > 0:05:08German WMF factory.

0:05:08 > 0:05:13WMF, or Wurttembergische Metallwarenfabrik -

0:05:13 > 0:05:15that's easy for me to say(!) -

0:05:15 > 0:05:19was a highly prized German factory that became strongly influenced

0:05:19 > 0:05:22by Art Nouveau at the turn of the century.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24This delightful object has a ticket price

0:05:24 > 0:05:27of £105.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29I'd like to be buying it

0:05:29 > 0:05:31in the region of £50.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Oh, gosh!

0:05:34 > 0:05:35Is that possible?

0:05:37 > 0:05:40- That's a lot less than I paid for it, Anita.- Is it?

0:05:40 > 0:05:44- That's a lot less. - Well, we don't want you to be...

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Losing money?- No, no, no.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49- We can't have that.- No, no, no.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51We can't have that.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Could you go to 60?

0:05:54 > 0:05:5663.

0:05:56 > 0:05:5863? Let's do it. It's a deal, John.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Thank you so much.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02I hope you do well with it.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05What a stylish first buy!

0:06:05 > 0:06:08And John's found something else to tantalise Anita.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11They're Scandinavian silver coffee spoons.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13These are lovely, the design is good.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16I like this naturalistic...

0:06:16 > 0:06:18handle here.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20That's very sweet.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22- It's very typical of Scandinavian Art Nouveau, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Are they expensive, John?

0:06:26 > 0:06:2725.

0:06:27 > 0:06:3025?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33And that would include a damn-good clean.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35SHE LAUGHS

0:06:35 > 0:06:37D'you do a cleaning service?

0:06:37 > 0:06:39Have you got a pair of Marigolds?

0:06:39 > 0:06:40A polish.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43Could you do them for 20?

0:06:43 > 0:06:44Go on.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- That's a double deal!- Another deal.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49That's wonderful.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51While Anita's been splashing the cash,

0:06:51 > 0:06:53Jonathan's having a stroll to his first shop

0:06:53 > 0:06:56in Glasgow town.

0:06:56 > 0:07:00- Morning.- Hello, good morning. How are you.- Very good. You?

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Jonathan's usually a bit nervy,

0:07:03 > 0:07:04but perhaps even more so,

0:07:04 > 0:07:08now that we're on Anita's home turf.

0:07:08 > 0:07:09It's hardly fair, is it?

0:07:09 > 0:07:12On past Road trips, young Jonathan has gained a reputation

0:07:12 > 0:07:14as a ditherer.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16Thankfully, owner, Marco,

0:07:16 > 0:07:18points him in the right direction.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20- You say £55 each?- Yep.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Each pair?

0:07:22 > 0:07:24They're 55 each,

0:07:24 > 0:07:26but I can come and go with you, no problem.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28I walked straight past these two because

0:07:28 > 0:07:32this shape just doesn't look like...

0:07:32 > 0:07:34a typical Georgian chair.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41They're terribly unfashionable, these chairs, nowadays.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44You have a nice pair of bedroom chairs.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47I'd give you £30, the pair.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49That's the best you can do?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Have a think or what would you say?

0:07:51 > 0:07:54- I can sell that to you.- Can you?! - That's no problem.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Ha-ha-ha! I am now the proud owner of a pair of chairs!

0:07:57 > 0:07:59You're happy about that?

0:07:59 > 0:08:02Blimey! Has Jonathan turned over a new leaf?

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- There you go.- Look at this!

0:08:04 > 0:08:05That's one down.

0:08:05 > 0:08:06I'm on fire!

0:08:06 > 0:08:10Don't get too big for your boots, though, JP.

0:08:10 > 0:08:11Anyway,

0:08:11 > 0:08:14Marco has another shop a-hop-and-a skip-and-a-jump away.

0:08:14 > 0:08:18And he selects a little silver something for Jonathan.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20It's quite an interesting piece.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Look.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24That's a bit of a weight, isn't it?

0:08:24 > 0:08:27So it was a cigar lighter.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30That doesn't sit right.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33I don't think that's actually belonging to this one.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35It's more like somebody put that one on top.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38It's circa 1900.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40This piece is actually original.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43That...goes...

0:08:43 > 0:08:45That isn't.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47That starts with that.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49That's fine for that.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Would something have sat in there?

0:08:52 > 0:08:53That, to me,

0:08:53 > 0:08:55is a cigar lighter.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58It sits there like a little Roman candle,

0:08:58 > 0:09:00like a lantern.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03You can have it for maybe 85.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07£85?

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Nothing like plonking it down, Jonathan(!)

0:09:13 > 0:09:15How about...

0:09:19 > 0:09:2160 for the two?

0:09:23 > 0:09:26If you can give me £70 you can have it.

0:09:26 > 0:09:2860 and I'll walk away.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31OK, I'll do that for you, 60.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32Well done.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Hee-hee-hee.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36I can knock off now.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Ha-ha-ha-ha.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40What a smarty-pants!

0:09:40 > 0:09:46But I quite like the new-look tough-talking Jonathan, don't you?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48And he's even finished ahead of Anita.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50Oh, great.

0:09:50 > 0:09:51The motor's back.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53Hey, Jonathan!

0:09:53 > 0:09:57- Ah!- Did you have a good time? - Here it is, look!

0:09:57 > 0:09:59- Did you fix that yourself? - Of course I did(!)

0:09:59 > 0:10:00I know a lot about cars.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Did you have a big key to wind it up(?)

0:10:02 > 0:10:05Don't joke yet, Anita!

0:10:08 > 0:10:12Young Jonathan is kindly dropping Anita off at Glasgow's

0:10:12 > 0:10:14much-loved Grand Central Hotel.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19- There we go. - I'm looking forward to this.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21A bit of luxury.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26Since its opening in 1883,

0:10:26 > 0:10:29this hotel has been a renowned Glasgow landmark.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33In 1879,

0:10:33 > 0:10:35the main train hub of Glasgow was opened

0:10:35 > 0:10:38by Caledonian Railways

0:10:38 > 0:10:42and the neighbouring Central Hotel just four years later.

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Designed by Scottish architect Robert Rowand Anderson,

0:10:46 > 0:10:49he adapted the Queen Anne style, which incorporates

0:10:49 > 0:10:50picturesque details,

0:10:50 > 0:10:52intricate gables

0:10:52 > 0:10:54and multi-panelled windows.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58Sadly, to make way for the building of the hotel and railway,

0:10:58 > 0:11:01the village of Grahamston had to be cleared.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04600 villagers watched as their homes and businesses

0:11:04 > 0:11:05were flattened.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11In the halcyon days of railway travel,

0:11:11 > 0:11:13the poshest hotel in town

0:11:13 > 0:11:15was often attached to the railway station,

0:11:15 > 0:11:18where the good and the great would stay.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24Anita is meeting with authors of a recently-published book

0:11:24 > 0:11:26on the history of this glorious hotel,

0:11:26 > 0:11:30Bill Hicks and Jill Scott.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32This is quite splendid.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40Why did Glasgow need a hotel like this?

0:11:40 > 0:11:44I suppose it would be the equivalent of the Ritz or the Dorchester

0:11:44 > 0:11:45in London.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47Did Glasgow need something like this?

0:11:47 > 0:11:51Oh, without doubt. The Caledonian Railway Company knew that.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53When they made this building, it had

0:11:53 > 0:11:56390 bedrooms,

0:11:56 > 0:12:00and room for 250 servants.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02This city was just so bustling

0:12:02 > 0:12:04and vibrant with industry.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07This was the nearest hotel to the Broomielaw.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09You could sail from the Broomielaw

0:12:09 > 0:12:11to Hong Kong, Singapore.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14So this was really the hub of commerce,

0:12:14 > 0:12:16and when we look at this ballroom,

0:12:16 > 0:12:18we can see that it was a place for

0:12:18 > 0:12:20great events.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Dinners and dances

0:12:23 > 0:12:24and so on.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Yes.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29As the hotel grew in splendour and majesty,

0:12:29 > 0:12:31it was the number-one location for many a famous face.

0:12:31 > 0:12:34Laurel and Hardy,

0:12:34 > 0:12:35Charlton Heston,

0:12:35 > 0:12:36Bob Hope.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39We're talking about Hollywood royalty?

0:12:39 > 0:12:40I heard a story

0:12:40 > 0:12:43that Roy Rogers stayed here

0:12:43 > 0:12:45and Trigger stayed, and Trigger's suite

0:12:45 > 0:12:48was more fancy.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- I don't know if that's true. - That's a myth.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55That's the myth.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Trigger didn't actually stay in the hotel.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00He was stabled outside, but...

0:13:00 > 0:13:05he was photographed walking up the main staircase.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10The hotel also took part in a historic first

0:13:10 > 0:13:12in 1927.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14John Logie Baird

0:13:14 > 0:13:18had his first pictures transmitted to the hotel.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20The transmission was made from London

0:13:20 > 0:13:22to a room in the fourth floor.

0:13:22 > 0:13:26And that was the very, very first television pictures?

0:13:26 > 0:13:28Over a distance, yes.

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Why did he choose this hotel?

0:13:30 > 0:13:34It was just because of its situation.

0:13:34 > 0:13:38If you can imagine that they had a lot of equipment coming up

0:13:38 > 0:13:40from London on the train.

0:13:40 > 0:13:43They didn't want to lug it about all over Glasgow.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46There's the hotel right on the doorstep,

0:13:46 > 0:13:48take it off the train, into the hotel,

0:13:48 > 0:13:49up to the fourth floor.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51Another memorable feature

0:13:51 > 0:13:53was the Grand's Malmaison Restaurant,

0:13:53 > 0:13:57which attracted those with a discerning palate

0:13:57 > 0:13:59for nearly 60 years.

0:13:59 > 0:14:00Feeling peckish?

0:14:00 > 0:14:03In 1959, one could start off

0:14:03 > 0:14:05with marmite soup for 4/-,

0:14:05 > 0:14:08move onto spag bol for 5/6,

0:14:08 > 0:14:10and round off with a delectable

0:14:10 > 0:14:12creme caramel for 3/-.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15A grand total of 12/6.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18That's 62½p in today's money.

0:14:18 > 0:14:22A glass of vino, of course, would be extra.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24Sadly, we must leave the glitz and glamour

0:14:24 > 0:14:26of the Grand Central Hotel behind

0:14:26 > 0:14:28and catch up with Jonathan

0:14:28 > 0:14:30who's on a jaunt for more antiques,

0:14:30 > 0:14:32and looking stylish.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36He's taking the high road to the bonnie banks

0:14:36 > 0:14:38of Loch Lomond.

0:14:38 > 0:14:43# By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes

0:14:43 > 0:14:48# Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond

0:14:48 > 0:14:51# Where me and my true love... #

0:14:51 > 0:14:54Isn't it lovely? Loch Lomond has much beauty to offer,

0:14:54 > 0:14:56and luckily for Jonathan,

0:14:56 > 0:14:58an antiques centre, too.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04What do you call this, a tam o'shanter?

0:15:07 > 0:15:10It's right up Anita's street, probably her head size as well.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12Lordy!

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Stop monkeying about and get stuck in!

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Och, aye.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Mm.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23He has a rather bird-like approach when he's searching for treasures,

0:15:23 > 0:15:27but owner, Brian, has uncovered something for Jonathan's inspection.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29Gosh, it's heavy.

0:15:32 > 0:15:34Is that bronze?

0:15:36 > 0:15:38If so, it's been cleaned...

0:15:38 > 0:15:39to an inch of its life.

0:15:39 > 0:15:44Japanese mark on the bottom, which I can't read.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Can't work it out which way up it's meant to go!

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Oh, gosh!

0:15:49 > 0:15:51The base is loose in the bottom, it's coming out.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Splitting.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56You can see, if you look inside,

0:15:56 > 0:15:58you can see daylight.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Can you see through?

0:16:00 > 0:16:01Oh, yes, look!

0:16:01 > 0:16:03I'll ask the chap anyway.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05The price on it is 145.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07145.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08I only have £110 left.

0:16:10 > 0:16:12I don't think I'd want to even put that on it.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15We could call it 90.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18Oh, dear. I don't really want to blow all my money on the first day.

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Not like that.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23- Oh, go on, then!- Go on, then!

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Well, he's certainly changeable.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28Thank you.

0:16:28 > 0:16:32That's enough roaming in the gloaming for one day.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35# On those swingin' banks of Loch Lomond... #

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Watch out for the van!

0:16:45 > 0:16:48Our guy and our gal are enjoying the morning sunshine

0:16:48 > 0:16:50as they begin a brand-new day.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53How are you finding Glasgow?

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Have you understood the Glasgow accent?

0:16:55 > 0:16:56Huh(?)

0:16:56 > 0:16:58SHE LAUGHS

0:16:58 > 0:17:02So far, Anita has spent £83 on two lots.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05The Art Nouveau biscuit box

0:17:05 > 0:17:08and the set of Art Nouveau Danish silver teaspoons,

0:17:08 > 0:17:11leaving a sum of £117 for the day ahead.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18Jonathan has spent £180 on three lots.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20The pair of 18th-century walnut chairs,

0:17:20 > 0:17:22the silver lot comprising

0:17:22 > 0:17:25the cigar lighter and the silver ewer.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27and the Japanese bronze vase.

0:17:27 > 0:17:32Yikes! He's only got £20 left.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36They're still in the delightful city of Glasgow

0:17:36 > 0:17:39and Anita is dropping Jonathan off on the banks

0:17:39 > 0:17:41of the Clyde.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42Well, not literally.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Have to make sure my sea legs are working today.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48Don't get seasick, Jonathan.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Isn't that wonderful? - That is amazing.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53Maybe I could get up to the crow's nest. That would be cool.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01Thank you very much for the lift. Have a lovely day, morning at least.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05We'll catch up with Jonathan and his nautical adventure later,

0:18:05 > 0:18:09but for now, like most girls, Anita's keen to get shopping.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16She's starting her buying spree in Ruthven Mews,

0:18:16 > 0:18:18in the heart of Glasgow's West End.

0:18:21 > 0:18:26Anita finds co-owner Derek to get down to business.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28- The old one here?- Uh-huh.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36It has a modernist look about it, which I quite like.

0:18:36 > 0:18:37It certainly has.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41It's probably, I would say, 1950s/1960s.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44It's very hard to sell brooches

0:18:44 > 0:18:46generally, these days.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48Don't tell her that, Derek!

0:18:48 > 0:18:50It's two-tone, as well,

0:18:50 > 0:18:52which makes it a little bit interesting.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55It has this sort of satin finish.

0:18:55 > 0:18:58I think it was bought in Wales, if that's any help.

0:18:58 > 0:18:59Maybe it's Welsh gold(!)

0:18:59 > 0:19:01I just wondered...

0:19:01 > 0:19:03I am selling in Paisley, though!

0:19:03 > 0:19:05THEY LAUGH

0:19:06 > 0:19:11Is there a possibility of buying that in the region of £20?

0:19:13 > 0:19:15Well...

0:19:15 > 0:19:19Can we make it more sort of 28?

0:19:19 > 0:19:21- 28?- Mm-hm.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23Could you go to 25?

0:19:23 > 0:19:25Mm...

0:19:25 > 0:19:27Oh, you're a hard lady!

0:19:27 > 0:19:30Listen, she hasn't even started yet!

0:19:30 > 0:19:33At 25, I think I've got a chance with that.

0:19:33 > 0:19:37- OK, we'll do a deal at 25.- Can we do that?- Yes.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40That's lovely. Thank you very much. Wish me luck.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42Yes, indeed.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46Trust Anita. She's got a big penchant for jewellery.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48She's spied some Charles Rennie Mackintosh-style

0:19:48 > 0:19:50earrings, too.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53Mackintosh was born in Glasgow

0:19:53 > 0:19:56and was a prolific architect and designer

0:19:56 > 0:20:00who was a figurehead of the Arts and Crafts movement.

0:20:00 > 0:20:02Could these be bought for five?

0:20:02 > 0:20:03- £5?!- Mm-hm.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05HE SQUIRMS

0:20:05 > 0:20:08I would rather double that.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10I think they should be £10.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12It's just they are modern.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14People can buy them in the shops.

0:20:14 > 0:20:15But they won't buy them for £10.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19- Yeah.- And £10 is a very good price for them.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21Could you go to five on those?

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Six, even.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28- Six?- That would be the lowest I would go for.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29We'll go for six.

0:20:29 > 0:20:33- Let's compromise at six. - That's fine.- That's great.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36Anita certainly loves her Art Nouveau.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39That's a total of four items bagged.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42back to young Jonathan.

0:20:42 > 0:20:44He's off on a Boy's Own adventure.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49Jonathan is stepping aboard the Glenlee,

0:20:49 > 0:20:52the only large Clyde-built sailing ship

0:20:52 > 0:20:54still afloat in the UK.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57She's moored alongside the Riverside Museum,

0:20:57 > 0:21:00which was opened in 2011.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03Built in 1896, she has a colourful history.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05She has sailed completely round the world

0:21:05 > 0:21:07four times,

0:21:07 > 0:21:09surviving many storms,

0:21:09 > 0:21:12and has braved the notorious Cape Horn 15 times.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22The ship's mainmast is as tall as ten double-decker buses

0:21:22 > 0:21:24placed one on top of the other.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28In 1993, the Glenlee returned to the Clyde,

0:21:28 > 0:21:30to be restored by the Clyde Maritime Trust,

0:21:30 > 0:21:34and was opened to the public as a museum ship

0:21:34 > 0:21:35six years later.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40Good morning, Jonathan. Welcome aboard the Glenlee.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Jonathan is meeting with Dr Christopher Mason, the president

0:21:44 > 0:21:46of the Trust.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48She was a bulk cargo ship.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49What's a bulk cargo ship?

0:21:49 > 0:21:53She carried things like coal, rice, wool.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56Crude oil, timber.

0:21:56 > 0:22:00Where would she be heading to, to get all that?

0:22:00 > 0:22:02She's be bringing that back to Europe.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04She's take a general cargo out.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08Then in Australia, say, she'd pick up a cargo of coal.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11Take it to the west coast of South America,

0:22:11 > 0:22:13and there she's pick up a cargo of nitrate,

0:22:13 > 0:22:17and take them back to the chemical industry

0:22:17 > 0:22:18on the Rhine.

0:22:18 > 0:22:22Then she'd go to London and do it all over again.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Whereabouts on the river would she have been built?

0:22:24 > 0:22:27She was built about ten miles down river from here

0:22:27 > 0:22:28at the Bay Yard,

0:22:28 > 0:22:30in Port Glasgow.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32She took six months to build

0:22:32 > 0:22:34and she was launched fully rigged

0:22:34 > 0:22:36on the 3rd of December,

0:22:36 > 0:22:39and ten days later, she sailed away to Liverpool,

0:22:39 > 0:22:41and she never came back to the Clyde

0:22:41 > 0:22:45- until she was towed up here in June, 1993.- Wonderful.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47- Can have a look around?- Yes.

0:22:47 > 0:22:48Do you want to go down below?

0:22:48 > 0:22:51No, you want to look at this first, maybe.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Is this a jump down there by the looks of it?

0:22:53 > 0:22:56You're absolutely not supposed to jump down here.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00No horsing around, Jonathan. Dr Mason doesn't stand any nonsense.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02- This is the main cargo hatch.- Yes.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05So all the cargo coming on board or coming off

0:23:05 > 0:23:10- would go down here, lowered down by cranes.- Yes.

0:23:10 > 0:23:15The stowing of the cargo was the principal job of the mate.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18It was very much a science-based task.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21Every cargo had to be treated differently.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25For example, if you pack wet coal tight together,

0:23:25 > 0:23:27in too much mass,

0:23:27 > 0:23:29it ignites spontaneously.

0:23:29 > 0:23:33- Oh, really?!- Many ships have been lost.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35- It's the toilets?- At the front end!

0:23:35 > 0:23:38Jonathan's itching to go below,

0:23:38 > 0:23:41where working conditions would have been tough.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43When they were loading guano,

0:23:43 > 0:23:45which is bird droppings,

0:23:45 > 0:23:47which was used for fertiliser

0:23:47 > 0:23:49and also for making chemicals,

0:23:49 > 0:23:51it would just be tipped down from the top

0:23:51 > 0:23:53and gather here in heaps.

0:23:53 > 0:23:57Men had to come down to rake it out.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00The amount of ammonia and other nasties coming off that

0:24:00 > 0:24:02was so strong,

0:24:02 > 0:24:05they would wrap wet cloths round their faces.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08But they would also have a rope

0:24:08 > 0:24:10passed round their chests, under their arms,

0:24:10 > 0:24:13so that if they passed out, they could be hauled out.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15It was a terrible, terrible job.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19I've smelt chicken poo. That's smelly enough.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22At the end of the 19th century, when steam-powered ships

0:24:22 > 0:24:24were in their ascendance,

0:24:24 > 0:24:27there had to be a good reason to build a sailing ship.

0:24:27 > 0:24:31They built a sailing ship for two reasons, mainly.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33One was that the sailing ship had range,

0:24:33 > 0:24:35she didn't run out of coal.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38So she could sail on for a hundred days.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41If you're sailing from the west coast of South America

0:24:41 > 0:24:42to Europe,

0:24:42 > 0:24:45a sailing ship can do it without stopping.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47A steamer in those days will definitely need to stop

0:24:47 > 0:24:50and refuel, which is expensive.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53The second reason why they built sailing ships

0:24:53 > 0:24:56is this business of the engines being the masts.

0:24:56 > 0:25:00So everything down here earns money.

0:25:00 > 0:25:07And that increased the earning capacity of giving space of hull by about 30 percent.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09It wasn't a piece of sentimentality,

0:25:09 > 0:25:13these ships were built to make profits and they did make profits.

0:25:15 > 0:25:20And Jonathan can't leave the ship without a bit of derring-do.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24I hope he has a head for heights.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32I wouldn't say I am nervous, but I might end up with a rather dirty pair of chinos.

0:25:32 > 0:25:37- Blimey, that is enough to make your eyes water.- I am in safe hands.- Yes.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41Pull yourself up. Put your right hook on.

0:25:41 > 0:25:47- Is that really the best choice of footwear, Jonathan? - Right, here goes.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01What a brave young man!

0:26:01 > 0:26:05Every Englishman has a drop of salt in his blood.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11I think I can see Anita coming up the road now.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14Somehow, I don't think so.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18Now, while Jonathan has been finding his sea legs,

0:26:18 > 0:26:21where is the delectable Anita?

0:26:22 > 0:26:26She is travelling 50 miles away to Kilwinning in North Ayrshire.

0:26:26 > 0:26:32From the hustle and bustle of the city to the lush green countryside.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34Anita has still got the shopping bug.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52Anita finds owner Shane to have a bit of a haggle.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54I quite like this wee silver plated gong.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00I like the sort of, it is like a rusted bamboo support.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02It is, it is very pretty, it is a very pretty piece.

0:27:02 > 0:27:07Showing the Chinese or Oriental influence. And...

0:27:07 > 0:27:09GONG SOUNDS

0:27:09 > 0:27:12- It sounds beautiful. - It is working perfectly.

0:27:14 > 0:27:19Is that possible to do in the region of 20-25?

0:27:21 > 0:27:25- I would do it for £20, Anita.- £20?- £20.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28I think that is nice, I like it.

0:27:28 > 0:27:34From a ticket price of £50 down to £20, well done, Anita.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38Now, where is our young lad?

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Jonathan is travelling just over 20 miles away

0:27:41 > 0:27:44to Kilbirnie in North Ayrshire.

0:27:44 > 0:27:48Jonathan is visiting the Stirrup Cup, owned by Greta.

0:27:48 > 0:27:50Greta Logan.

0:27:50 > 0:27:54I had a rather busy day yesterday and I spent quite a lot of money

0:27:54 > 0:27:58and I'm going to be totally frank with you now I have arrived. I have left on me...

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- £20.- Ouch.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04I thought I may take the novel approach of saying,

0:28:04 > 0:28:06"What can you sell for £20?"

0:28:06 > 0:28:08You have just taken the wind out of my sails,

0:28:08 > 0:28:13- because what have I got for £20? - That is kind of it.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16You have got to appreciate his honesty.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18Greta gives Jonathan the tour.

0:28:20 > 0:28:24- Here we are.- This is quite fancy.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30- My poster?- Yes. Of the heart and arteries.

0:28:30 > 0:28:33It is probably turn-of-the-century,

0:28:33 > 0:28:39- made for Edinburgh University.- Printed in Scotland?- I think it has...

0:28:42 > 0:28:46- Is there a price on this one?- That one could be round about the 20.

0:28:47 > 0:28:50Roundabout is 20 or no sale.

0:28:50 > 0:28:53There you go, you're not allowed to give me

0:28:53 > 0:28:58- two pounds out of your own pocket. - No, he is not allowed.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01Well done, Jonathan, that £20 purchase means you have

0:29:01 > 0:29:06blown every single penny of your £200. Good boy.

0:29:06 > 0:29:11It is time for Anita and Jonathan to have a nosy at one another's treasures.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14Jonathan, did you have a good buy in Scotland?

0:29:14 > 0:29:17I had a great time, a really good time.

0:29:17 > 0:29:19I thought you might have the advantage but I'm not sure now.

0:29:19 > 0:29:22We will soon see. Let me reveal mine first.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26- Oh, lots of little small things. - Yes.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29One of the things that strikes me first, I do like this,

0:29:29 > 0:29:34- I think the style is very good. Is it WMF?- WMF.- WMF?

0:29:34 > 0:29:36I am not saying that in German again.

0:29:36 > 0:29:41I think it is very bonny, very Art Nouveau, modern looking,

0:29:41 > 0:29:44- it would fit in any house.- Expensive? - Functional.

0:29:44 > 0:29:48- I'm hoping!- It wasn't cheap, it was £63.

0:29:48 > 0:29:52- That's OK.- So it's not too bad.

0:29:52 > 0:29:56I like this, too. I am assuming these might be silver at the front.

0:29:56 > 0:29:57Jensenesque.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00- Danish silver. - They are Danish, OK.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04- And my brooch is gold, it is hallmarked.- Nine carats.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08Nine carats, so I didn't pay a lot of money for it.

0:30:08 > 0:30:12And I am hoping that it will be worth twice its weight in gold.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15But listen to this, this is what I love.

0:30:15 > 0:30:16GONG SOUNDS

0:30:16 > 0:30:20That will get the children running, won't it? Hopefully towards the kitchen.

0:30:20 > 0:30:24- I might buy that myself, it would be quite useful.- For your kids?- Yes.

0:30:24 > 0:30:28- How different to what I've bought. - Show me what you've got.

0:30:28 > 0:30:34OK, I must be careful what I do here. I can't remember what I've bought now.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37I got those, very different, and...

0:30:39 > 0:30:43Oh, Jonathan, I love that.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47- Isn't it cool?- That is absolutely fabulous. That is wonderful.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50It is funny, you like that, that was the cheapest thing of the whole lot.

0:30:50 > 0:30:54I know, but that is the sort of thing that will capture people's imaginations.

0:30:54 > 0:30:56I like him and he has a lovely smile.

0:30:58 > 0:31:00He could do with a good feed though!

0:31:00 > 0:31:02But these are rather nice, tell me about these.

0:31:02 > 0:31:06What you've got here is a little cigar lighter, table lighter,

0:31:06 > 0:31:101901, London by William Comyns.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13But this is a Glasgow piece of silver,

0:31:13 > 0:31:15I've called it a little miniature ewer

0:31:15 > 0:31:17and collectively they cost me £60.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20Right, OK, I do like that.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23Maybe a bit of a problem because they are not compatible

0:31:23 > 0:31:27and they are not complete. What about this?

0:31:28 > 0:31:30- It is heavy, isn't it?- It is.

0:31:30 > 0:31:32Do you think it is quite good quality?

0:31:32 > 0:31:35What I like to see are the character marks on the base.

0:31:35 > 0:31:38Of its type that is pretty good, the downside is that you'll

0:31:38 > 0:31:44notice, it has been cleaned within an inch of its life. But I paid...

0:31:45 > 0:31:51- £90 for it.- Right.- Right. - And what did you pay for these?

0:31:51 > 0:31:54These two chairs, I was in a quandary about these. I thought they were such a strange shape

0:31:54 > 0:31:57and there are elements I thought were 18th-century.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00Johnny, I don't think these screws are 18th-century.

0:32:00 > 0:32:05Do you know, standing here I have noticed them on this side as well.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07But I paid £30 for the pair.

0:32:07 > 0:32:13- When you think of it, £30 for two chairs...- With screws on the side.

0:32:13 > 0:32:14It's for nothing.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17We will see what happens on the day, but I think

0:32:17 > 0:32:21we have had a good first two days and hopefully we will both make a profit.

0:32:21 > 0:32:22It is going to be interesting.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26Let's hear what they really think.

0:32:27 > 0:32:32Jonathan has been very brave on this first leg,

0:32:32 > 0:32:35he has spent all of his money and I like to see that.

0:32:35 > 0:32:39It means that I have a bigger chance of winning.

0:32:39 > 0:32:44I like the WMF the most, I can see the style and I can see it is Anita's taste.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47That is the thing I would say I like the most.

0:32:47 > 0:32:49On the whole they are all very similar.

0:32:50 > 0:32:52Let's hit the road and head to auction.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57We have had an exciting first leg,

0:32:57 > 0:33:01starting in the city of Glasgow, then journeying via Loch Lomond,

0:33:01 > 0:33:08Kilwinning, Kilbirnie and finally to the Renfrewshire town of Paisley.

0:33:10 > 0:33:11By the 19th century,

0:33:11 > 0:33:16Paisley had established itself as the epicentre of the weaving industry,

0:33:16 > 0:33:19giving its name to the Paisley pattern and Paisley shawl

0:33:19 > 0:33:25which became very fashionable after a young Victoria took a liking to the design.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31Paisley was also very famous for its Coats threadmill.

0:33:31 > 0:33:36And talking of threads, Jonathan, you're looking pretty smart today. I am glad to see you have gotten

0:33:36 > 0:33:38all dressed up to come out with Mrs Manning.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40This jacket, I bought at auction.

0:33:42 > 0:33:48And it was worn by Warren Beatty in a film called The Only Game In Town.

0:33:48 > 0:33:52- I don't believe that. - Absolutely.- That is fabulous.

0:33:52 > 0:33:53Nice blue wool sports jacket.

0:33:55 > 0:33:59Our very own road trip stars arrived at the auction house.

0:33:59 > 0:34:04Collins and Paterson have been established in the town since 1848.

0:34:05 > 0:34:10- I don't suppose you could get any closer, could you?- Oh, brilliant.

0:34:11 > 0:34:15- Oh, it is the next jacket. - Well, Jonathan, first auction.

0:34:15 > 0:34:19- Are you excited?- I am very excited and a little nervous.

0:34:19 > 0:34:23Don't be nervous. Come on. I will hold your hand the whole time.

0:34:23 > 0:34:24Thank you.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28And taking to the rostrum today is auctioneer Stephen Maxwell.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31What does he think about Anita and Jonathan's lots?

0:34:31 > 0:34:33No interest at £25?

0:34:33 > 0:34:37I think the WMF box, the biscuit box,

0:34:37 > 0:34:39there has been a lot of interest in that.

0:34:39 > 0:34:40It will fetch a good price.

0:34:40 > 0:34:44Also, the silver cigar lighter with a miniature ewer is a nice wee lot.

0:34:44 > 0:34:47Again, a fair bit of interest, good age to it,

0:34:47 > 0:34:50nicely made pieces that I think will do well.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54Anita Manning started today with £200

0:34:54 > 0:34:57and spent £134 or five auction lots.

0:34:59 > 0:35:05While Jonathan Pratt blew every single penny of his £200 starter pack on four lots.

0:35:07 > 0:35:11Today's auction will also be open to bidders on the internet.

0:35:14 > 0:35:18First up, it is Anita's gold brooch.

0:35:18 > 0:35:21Conflicting commission bids, I will come straight in here

0:35:21 > 0:35:25- and start at £45.- Well done.- £45 I have for the brooch. Do I have £48?

0:35:25 > 0:35:3348, thank you. £50. You are out, with me, £50. 55. £60? 65?

0:35:33 > 0:35:34The gentleman, it is your bid, sir,

0:35:34 > 0:35:37we are selling into the room, fair warning at £65.

0:35:37 > 0:35:42- Yes!- Well done, Anita, that is a great start.

0:35:44 > 0:35:47Indeed, she is off the starting block.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49I still have four to go, right enough.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56Right, it is Jonathan next with the silver lot

0:35:56 > 0:35:58of the cigar lighter and ewer.

0:35:58 > 0:36:02Deep breaths. Pant.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05Why pant?

0:36:06 > 0:36:07HE PANTS

0:36:07 > 0:36:09What is that going to help me with?

0:36:09 > 0:36:11Wee bit of interest again in the two items here,

0:36:11 > 0:36:14so I will go straight in and start the bidding at £60.

0:36:14 > 0:36:16That is what I paid.

0:36:16 > 0:36:2065 online. £70. 75.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24£80. At 90. 95.

0:36:24 > 0:36:29The bid is against you. £100, the bid is on commission.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32We are selling, fair warning, at £100.

0:36:32 > 0:36:38- Brilliant.- Well done. - That's a relief.- Are you happy?

0:36:38 > 0:36:39- I am very, very happy.- Excellent.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42I am glad you are happy, too, Jonathan.

0:36:42 > 0:36:46Oh, that makes you neck and neck with Anita.

0:36:46 > 0:36:52Now it is Anita's turn with the Rennie Mackintosh style earrings.

0:36:52 > 0:36:56- Five pounds, surely? Five pounds? - Come on, come on.

0:36:56 > 0:37:02That is for the two of them! We will throw in the box, honestly, we will.

0:37:02 > 0:37:06Two pounds, come on, two pounds, silver earrings for two pounds.

0:37:06 > 0:37:08I can't go much lower, I am bid two pounds by this gentleman -

0:37:08 > 0:37:13it is your bid, sir, at two pounds. Going there, one born every minute.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15What is your number? 69.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17Onwards and upwards, Anita.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Jonathan is in the lead.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23Maybe that is all they were worth?

0:37:25 > 0:37:27Next it is Anita's Art Nouveau biscuit barrel,

0:37:27 > 0:37:30the one she managed to get the big discount on.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34The dealer came down quite a bit on the deal.

0:37:34 > 0:37:40- You had him in a half-nelson, I take it.- No, a big smile sometimes works.

0:37:40 > 0:37:47£85 to get it started, £85. At £85 here, we have 90 online.

0:37:47 > 0:37:5095, 95 is against you. £100.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12All in at 170? Fair warning to you, £170.

0:38:12 > 0:38:17Very well done, Anita.

0:38:17 > 0:38:18That is a good result.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22- How am I going to compete against that!- That is a good result.

0:38:22 > 0:38:27Big smiles really do work, Anita, excellent results.

0:38:27 > 0:38:28That puts you ahead.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33What was it you were saying about wanting to win?

0:38:39 > 0:38:43Jonathan's turn now, with the big budget buy of the bronze vase.

0:38:43 > 0:38:47I need to see it make £150 for me to feel confident.

0:38:47 > 0:38:52- Darling, I love you for your courage. - Is it called courage?

0:38:54 > 0:38:58We have interest again, we will start straight in at £45.

0:38:58 > 0:39:05£45 for the Japanese vase at £45. 48 online. At £50, 55.

0:39:13 > 0:39:1885, all done at 85? Selling, fair warning at £85.

0:39:18 > 0:39:22OK. Amazing.

0:39:22 > 0:39:27Uh-oh, not the figure Jonathan was hoping for.

0:39:31 > 0:39:36It is Anita again with the Danish spoons.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40£15? At 15, thank you sir.

0:39:40 > 0:39:44I am bid £15. It is against the net,

0:39:44 > 0:39:47with gentleman at £15, do we have 18?

0:39:47 > 0:39:54At £20. And two, 25, 28, £30.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57With the gentleman in the room, we are selling them,

0:39:57 > 0:39:59fair warning at £30.

0:39:59 > 0:40:02- There you go.- I am happy with that.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05Still pushing ahead there, Anita.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07Right then, Jonathan,

0:40:07 > 0:40:10can you plan operation comeback with the anatomy chart?

0:40:10 > 0:40:11Remember, you're behind.

0:40:11 > 0:40:15Let's get straight to the heart of the matter - can we get £20?

0:40:15 > 0:40:20£20 there, anatomy chart at 20.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23Don't be shy, start me at ten, surely.

0:40:23 > 0:40:30- I am bid 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, two. - Both on the floor.

0:40:30 > 0:40:36We are selling them fair warning. At £22. Gone.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41Oh dear, a disappointing result.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47Next it is Anita, with her silver gong and beater.

0:40:47 > 0:40:49Starting at £20?

0:40:49 > 0:40:51£20?

0:40:51 > 0:40:5520 for the dinner gong, 20 we have online, 22 with the lady,

0:40:55 > 0:40:5725, 28, 30.

0:40:57 > 0:41:03You are out. 35? Still online at 35.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05We are online to 40.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08We have £40 there.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10It seems to have settled at 40, I think we are all done.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14Selling, fair warning at £40.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16Very good.

0:41:16 > 0:41:18It's doubled its money, just about.

0:41:18 > 0:41:21Just about - it didn't drum up huge interest, though.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24But it still gives her a slight profit.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Jonathan's worn out dining chairs are the final lot of the day.

0:41:29 > 0:41:33What can we say? £50 for the pair?

0:41:33 > 0:41:38£50 thank you. 55 online. At 60.

0:41:38 > 0:41:44The bid is in the room at 60, 65? And 70. 75, and 80.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47Still with the gentleman in the room. £80.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50Selling, fair warning, at £80.

0:41:50 > 0:41:54- And the number is 24. - What a result. Fantastic.

0:41:54 > 0:41:58- Are you happy now, darling? - Yes I am. Saved by the wood.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02That is more like it! Well done.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05- Let's go.- OK.- Let's get some lunch.

0:42:05 > 0:42:08But who is today's jubilant winner?

0:42:09 > 0:42:14Jonathan started today with £200, and after paying auction costs made

0:42:14 > 0:42:21a small profit of £35.34, giving him a modest £235.34 to carry forward.

0:42:23 > 0:42:31Anita also began with £200 and made a respectable profit of £117.74,

0:42:31 > 0:42:37so that makes Anita today's winner and gives her £317.74 to start the next leg.

0:42:39 > 0:42:43- Wasn't that good? - That was exciting. Very exciting.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46- I loved your chairs! - I knew I knew something about them.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49I couldn't put my finger on it, but there we go.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52Well done on that, but I think we're both happy.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54We should be, we are both in the money.

0:42:54 > 0:42:59We are going in the right direction, we're going in the right direction.

0:43:01 > 0:43:04Let's hope that direction leads you to lots and lots

0:43:04 > 0:43:06and lots of lovely profits.

0:43:06 > 0:43:10Next time on the Antiques Road Trip...

0:43:10 > 0:43:12Have you been thrown out of many antique shops?

0:43:12 > 0:43:17Anita makes friends. And Jonathan makes up his mind.

0:43:20 > 0:43:21Eventually.

0:43:23 > 0:43:26- Well done. - My heart is slightly racing.
