0:00:05 > 0:00:07Today we've come north of the border to Ayrshire,

0:00:07 > 0:00:11which was once the engine room of Scotland's industrial revolution.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14Welcome to Flog It from Kilmarnock!

0:00:34 > 0:00:37This once remote and sleepy part of the country

0:00:37 > 0:00:39sat on a wealth of local natural resources

0:00:39 > 0:00:44and from the mid- 17th century onwards, mills and factories sprung up all over the area.

0:00:44 > 0:00:50And as the city grew as an industrial centre, its workforce needed entertaining.

0:00:50 > 0:00:58So in 1863, this distinctive red sandstone building, the Palace Theatre, opened as a concert hall.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Well, there's a great show in town today and all these players

0:01:00 > 0:01:03are hoping to take centre stage with their prized possessions.

0:01:03 > 0:01:08Our two leading stars are David Fletcher and James Lewis, spot-on experts here.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Well, it's now 9.30, it's time to get the doors open,

0:01:10 > 0:01:14get the show on the road and as they say, let's raise the curtain!

0:01:17 > 0:01:23In today's programme, auctioneer Anita Manning shows us all is not what it first seems.

0:01:25 > 0:01:30This picture came in with a non-reflective glass.

0:01:30 > 0:01:35We couldn't see any detail with that glass on and I wish people wouldn't do that.

0:01:35 > 0:01:39And I learn a thing or two about some rather special locals.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43So I spent a lot of time thinking why Scotland, and Ayrshire in particular,

0:01:43 > 0:01:46had such an influence on world for innovation.

0:01:46 > 0:01:52But right now, Act One is under way at the Palace Theatre and James has mixed feelings about his first item.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56Jack, it is so nice to see a local picture here in Kilmarnock.

0:01:56 > 0:02:03- Are you local?- Darvel, ten miles away, where Alexander Fleming was born, the inventor of penicillin.

0:02:03 > 0:02:07And that, of course, is the area of the most wonderful salmon fishing

0:02:07 > 0:02:12and lovely rivers and great otter country as well, of course.

0:02:12 > 0:02:17- Yes, a lot of otters.- So tell me, how did it come to be in your family?

0:02:17 > 0:02:21I owned a trout fishery, Regal Fishery up at Drumclog.

0:02:21 > 0:02:27And an old fisherman brought it in, just the bare canvas.

0:02:27 > 0:02:33And it had been lying in his garden shed for years.

0:02:33 > 0:02:34Years and years, just lying.

0:02:34 > 0:02:40And he brought it in and he said, "There's a picture if you want to put it on your wall."

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Well, we sold the fishery and I kept the painting.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47That's not a salmon, is it? I'm not good on my fish.

0:02:47 > 0:02:52- No, that's a grayling. - This is by quite a good artist, A Roland Knight(???).

0:02:52 > 0:02:55Signed down at the bottom right hand corner there.

0:02:55 > 0:02:59It's titled, The First... The First Lesson.

0:02:59 > 0:03:05And of course this is a female otter bringing back the catch, teaching the baby otters how to catch fish.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Now, Roland Knight was a very well-known fish painter.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12If you have a look at the head of the grayling here,

0:03:12 > 0:03:15you'll see that wonderful detail.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17And the grayling is painted beautifully.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20But I have to say, I don't think the otters are painted as well.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24On some of the otter pictures, the fur glistens,

0:03:24 > 0:03:27you can see the water in the fur and the oils in the fur.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29I was hoping it was worth quite a bit of money.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32Yes, I mean, it's a good artist.

0:03:32 > 0:03:35But having explained about the difficulty of the subject matter,

0:03:35 > 0:03:38I'm hoping I'm not going to disappoint you here.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42Probably, at auction, £300-£500, something like that.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46- Is that quite a bit of money? - No.- No!

0:03:46 > 0:03:48I think it's a beautiful painting.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51What I'd like to see, before it goes to the auction,

0:03:51 > 0:03:58is this frame taken off and probably left in just the canvas itself.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01It's been reframed, put behind glass,

0:04:01 > 0:04:05and it isn't really doing it any favours.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08So if we put a reserve of £300 on there, are you happy with that?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Yes. OK.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Fantastic. Well, fingers crossed, let's hope so.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15I do like it, you know.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17And I think fishermen will like it.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20If you've got a few contacts in the fisheries, maybe you've got somebody

0:04:20 > 0:04:23who might like a picture of an otter catching a grayling!

0:04:35 > 0:04:41- So I see you've brought me in a vase...and a bowl.- Indeed.

0:04:41 > 0:04:44So, Bryn, what can you tell me about these vases?

0:04:44 > 0:04:49Well, I emigrated with my wife to South Africa

0:04:49 > 0:04:54and when we were setting up house 50 years ago,

0:04:54 > 0:05:00we happened to see these on sale in the main street of Durban.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03- And we immediately took a fancy to them.- Right.

0:05:03 > 0:05:07They were made in the Wedgwood factory in the 1930s

0:05:07 > 0:05:12and they were designed by a man called Keith Murray,

0:05:12 > 0:05:15who trained as an architect.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17He was immensely influential, really.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21Presumably, you knew a bit about Keith Murray when you bought them?

0:05:21 > 0:05:22Or did you just buy them...?

0:05:22 > 0:05:24No, I didn't know a thing about them.

0:05:24 > 0:05:27I discovered they were by Keith Murray

0:05:27 > 0:05:29when I saw one of them on Flog It.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31Right, OK. Without us, you wouldn't have known that?

0:05:31 > 0:05:36- No, I wouldn't. - They're very popular today.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39I have to err a bit on the conservative side,

0:05:39 > 0:05:44because it is true to say that this green, this turquoise colour,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46is not the most commercial colour.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50I think they would have done better had they have been

0:05:50 > 0:05:55in that rather nice stoneware, sort of sandy colour that he sometimes used.

0:05:55 > 0:06:03I would consider this vase at auction today to be worth between £120 - £160.

0:06:03 > 0:06:10The bowl is, I think, slightly less saleable at say, £100 - £140.

0:06:10 > 0:06:16And I would suggest a reserve of £120 on this and £100 on that.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18How does that sound to you?

0:06:18 > 0:06:22When I saw the item on Flog It and saw it sold,

0:06:22 > 0:06:25it sold for I think £300 for one of them.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28It might have been signed, which is important.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33Or I may have got the valuation wrong.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36Yes. I hope you are wrong!

0:06:36 > 0:06:37Not a lot of people say that to me!

0:06:37 > 0:06:40What will you do with the money?

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Well, I'll use it for making a trip to Norway.

0:06:42 > 0:06:46I have relatives over there.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Well, don't book your flight yet!

0:06:49 > 0:06:53Let's hope that I'm wrong and they sell for a lot more.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Anne, thank you so much for coming along today

0:07:09 > 0:07:10because you put a smile on my face.

0:07:10 > 0:07:15You've brought what I would call traditional purist antiques

0:07:15 > 0:07:18and there's nothing better than a snuff bowl, for me.

0:07:18 > 0:07:22These, ideally, were put in the pocket,

0:07:22 > 0:07:27a waistcoat pocket, and taken out to have a pinch or two.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30And obviously to lay on the table to impress your guests

0:07:30 > 0:07:33and you could pass it around and everybody could have a pinch.

0:07:33 > 0:07:38And this is very nice as well. Again, local. Look at that thistle.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41I would put this at the same date, early 1800s.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43What can you tell me about this?

0:07:43 > 0:07:46Again, it's horn. How would you pronounce it, a "kwech"?

0:07:46 > 0:07:51- "Quaich".- Quaich? Little drinking vessels.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54Obviously, some of the Scandinavian ones are quite large.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57This is actually made in Edinburgh. I can tell by the hallmark.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59I don't know who the maker is.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02But this was made in the early 1900s.

0:08:02 > 0:08:05So what can you tell me about them? How did you come by them?

0:08:05 > 0:08:12I inherited them from... a cousin of my mother's.

0:08:12 > 0:08:17And she had got them, I think, from a brother-in-law

0:08:17 > 0:08:19or a cousin who grew marrows.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22- So they've been in the family a long time?- That's right.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25- And this one was obviously awarded to him.- Yes.- And it's dated.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28It's absolutely wonderful, it's from the Horticultural Society.

0:08:28 > 0:08:33And it says, "For the best marrow grown. 6th August 1816."

0:08:33 > 0:08:37So we can instantly date this. I think that's gorgeous.

0:08:37 > 0:08:42It's just a shame about that little bit of damage, isn't it?

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Now, does gardening run in the family?

0:08:44 > 0:08:46It does a bit, yes.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49- Are you a keen gardener? - Yes, I was.- You were?- Yes.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51So it's all overgrown a bit, is it?

0:08:51 > 0:08:53Yes, it is.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Are you offering?!

0:08:55 > 0:08:58I'll come round and do it! How about that? With my strimmer!

0:08:58 > 0:09:01It would take a lot more than a strimmer, I'm afraid!

0:09:01 > 0:09:04Had you any idea of value?

0:09:04 > 0:09:06No.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- No.- OK. I think as a group lot,

0:09:09 > 0:09:16we could put them in with an estimate of £150 - £250.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19And they're going to find their level somewhere in the middle,

0:09:19 > 0:09:22- I think. - I see.- How do you feel about that?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24- That's fine.- Happy?

0:09:24 > 0:09:27- Yes.- Why d'you want to sell them now?

0:09:27 > 0:09:31I'm kind of past my best! And nobody's interested in them.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32No, you're not!

0:09:46 > 0:09:49- Hello, Dan.- Hello, David.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Well, this is every schoolboy's dream!

0:09:51 > 0:09:55- Absolutely.- Tell me, were you a schoolboy when you acquired it?

0:09:55 > 0:09:59Yes, I was. I was only about six or seven when I got the original set.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02It was a birthday present.

0:10:02 > 0:10:07And I added some bits and pieces in the years after that.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10It looks as if you hardly ever played with it.

0:10:10 > 0:10:16Well, it is probably more used than it looks, but I was one of these sad children

0:10:16 > 0:10:19that put everything back in the boxes once I'd played with them!

0:10:19 > 0:10:23- Very irritating!- Indeed!- I was completely the opposite, I'm afraid.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26All my Dinky toys and Corgi Toys got smashed to pieces.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30What's in this little paper bag in the front of the box?

0:10:30 > 0:10:35That was something that was in the original goods set

0:10:35 > 0:10:39- and it's still in the original envelope there.- Gosh.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42And all it is, is...

0:10:42 > 0:10:45a very small...lamp.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47It's even got a little lens, hasn't it?

0:10:47 > 0:10:51Yes. So it's perfect in every detail.

0:10:51 > 0:10:56Now, you've obviously grown up with it, but in spite of that, you're happy to sell it?

0:10:56 > 0:11:01Yes. I mean, I think there comes a time when you've got to look at these things and say,

0:11:01 > 0:11:07well, it's almost 50 years old, I'm a bit older than that, and maybe this is the time to flog it!

0:11:07 > 0:11:11There does come a time in your life when you have to finally grow up, you're right! And move on.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13That's right.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15You're not going to make a fortune, I'm sure you know that.

0:11:15 > 0:11:19But there are a great many plus points, mainly relating to the condition.

0:11:19 > 0:11:24And of course, and this is imperative to a collector,

0:11:24 > 0:11:29all of it is in its original box. Quite a bit of potential here.

0:11:29 > 0:11:34So I'd be thinking in terms of £50 - £100 as an estimate.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37Let's hope it makes more than that.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41But you've looked after it very carefully.

0:11:41 > 0:11:46You've protected your investment and I hope we get a good result for you.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Thanks very much for that. Let's hope it doesn't hit the buffers!

0:11:49 > 0:11:52I'm sure it won't. Full steam ahead!

0:11:52 > 0:11:56All on board then for our first items from Kilmarnock.

0:11:56 > 0:12:01Let's have a quick reminder of the stars we're taking to auction today.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04James thinks there's something a bit fishy about the detail

0:12:04 > 0:12:07in this painting, but owner Jack hopes other anglers will love it.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10Bryn found his Wedgwood pieces in South Africa.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13David thinks they'd do better if they were signed.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15He valued them at under £300.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18Let's hope that I'm wrong and they sell for a lot more.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21I hope you are wrong!

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Not often that people say that to me!

0:12:24 > 0:12:30I valued Anne's two snuff bowls and quaich at £150 - £250.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32..nearly 100 years later...

0:12:32 > 0:12:35And this Hornby train set was bought by Daniel with his pocket money.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38But now he's outgrown it.

0:12:38 > 0:12:43It's almost 50 years old, I'm a bit older than that and maybe this is the time to flog it!

0:12:49 > 0:12:51And this is where all the auction action is taking place today.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Great Western auction rooms in Glasgow.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56Already the house is filling up. People are browsing.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59Let's hope they're going to be bidding on our lots later on.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03But before the action gets underway, let's have a quick chat with today's auctioneer -

0:13:03 > 0:13:05everybody's favourite, Anita Manning.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09And she's got some bad news about Jack's otter painting.

0:13:09 > 0:13:14She's spotted some damage which could affect the value.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18This picture came in with non-reflective glass.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21Yes, James did the valuation with the glass on.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24- And he hoped you'd take it off. - It was the best thing to do.

0:13:24 > 0:13:30We couldn't see any detail with that glass on, and I wish people wouldn't do that.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34With the glass off, the signature is much clearer.

0:13:34 > 0:13:39And we also can see the damage much more, that's the only thing.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42You can see where they haven't got the varnish quite right.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45There has been an area here which has been damaged

0:13:45 > 0:13:48and it's been repaired and over-painted badly.

0:13:48 > 0:13:52- Yes.- And I think there's one or two areas where you are...

0:13:52 > 0:13:56- I can see them, there's one there and one there.- It's charming.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00But I think the damage is going to make a little bit of difference.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03What would you put on it if it came in?

0:14:03 > 0:14:06- If it came in, I would...- 200 - 300?

0:14:06 > 0:14:07Perhaps 200 - 300.

0:14:07 > 0:14:11With looking at maybe 180.

0:14:11 > 0:14:16But the thing is, Paul, when something is in mint condition,

0:14:16 > 0:14:19- the pistols are packed. - Of course they are.

0:14:19 > 0:14:26When something isn't quite right, then it's difficult to estimate accurately.

0:14:33 > 0:14:36We'll find out what the bidders make of holey otter in a moment.

0:14:36 > 0:14:43But first up, it's Bryn's Wedgwood vase and bowl and the auctioneer has decided to sell them as one lot.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47The Keith Murray is just about to go under the hammer. Quality. A bit of Wedgwood.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51It fits so well in a minimalist interior and people are into minimalist.

0:14:51 > 0:14:52Have you got a minimalist interior?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54- Halfway!- Halfway!

0:14:54 > 0:14:57- Having a good declutter, are you?! - That's right!

0:14:57 > 0:15:00We've got £220 - £300.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03I guess that's the fixed reserve of 220. Best of luck, that's all I can say.

0:15:03 > 0:15:08Let's hope we get the top end of David's estimate, because it is a sought-after name.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12We're going to find out right now, this is it.

0:15:12 > 0:15:18508, a wonderful Keith Murray lot, ladies and gentlemen.

0:15:18 > 0:15:25It's the vase of ovoid shape with this wonderful horizontal groove,

0:15:25 > 0:15:29both in this wonderful green.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32Can we say £400? 400?

0:15:32 > 0:15:35300? Start me at 200 for the two.

0:15:35 > 0:15:41200 bid. 210, 220, 230, 240.

0:15:41 > 0:15:47250, 260, 270, 280, 290, 300.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51£300, it's with you, sir, at 300.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Any advance on £300?

0:15:54 > 0:15:59Any advance on 300? All done at 300?

0:15:59 > 0:16:03Spot on! Well done, top end of the estimate.

0:16:03 > 0:16:04You were right.

0:16:04 > 0:16:09There's commission to pay, what are you going to put the money towards?

0:16:09 > 0:16:12A trip to Norway, to visit family.

0:16:12 > 0:16:17- Who's out there then?- I've got nieces and nephews out there.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Have a great time in Norway. Thank you.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22It's a great place, Norway. I've been there.

0:16:23 > 0:16:27Next, the moment of truth for the otter painting.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33I've just been joined by Jack, and hopefully this will be a good catch.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37I know you're in the middle of building your trout ponds right now, aren't you?

0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Starting up another fishery.- Uh-huh.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Why are you selling this? This would look so good, promoting the farm.

0:16:43 > 0:16:48I bought it just to see, and then I was talked into it by James.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50Oh, he twisted your arm? He does that.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52I quite like it, I'm not...

0:16:52 > 0:16:55He normally says no reserve as well, but I think he let you off lightly.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57We got three to five.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59There's been a bit of damage on it.

0:16:59 > 0:17:04I had a chat to Anita before the sale started, and she feels the damage might hold it back a bit.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07I think it still looks better without the glass.

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Oh, for sure. It's a good piece.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14It's a great subject, but I didn't like all of it. OK.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16Let's see what the bidders think.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Let's see if we can reel them in!

0:17:19 > 0:17:23Lot 401, A Roland Knight.

0:17:23 > 0:17:30One of the most prestigious English painters of fish and fishing scenes.

0:17:30 > 0:17:36Here, we have an oil on canvas, The First Lesson. Can we say £500?

0:17:36 > 0:17:39500? 300?

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Start me at 200?

0:17:41 > 0:17:44150, then? 150 bid.

0:17:44 > 0:17:48Any advance on 150?

0:17:48 > 0:17:56160, 170, 180, 190, 200.

0:17:56 > 0:17:57Any advance on 200?

0:17:57 > 0:18:05210, 220, 230, 240, 260.

0:18:05 > 0:18:11Any advance on £260?

0:18:13 > 0:18:16All done at 260? Not sold.

0:18:16 > 0:18:20No. Fixed reserve at 300.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24It was just, I think, that little bit amateurish for them.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30The six airgun holes in it wouldn't have helped.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33Was it? Airgun pellets? Shot through?

0:18:33 > 0:18:40- It was shot five or six times with an airgun.- Who did that?

0:18:40 > 0:18:46The fella I bought it from, his son, when he was a little boy, it used to lie in his hut and he shot it.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49Naughty boy! All these shooting, hunting, fishing types!

0:18:55 > 0:19:00Next up we've got a clockwork train set, a Hornby one belonging to Daniel.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02I love this, you've had this since you were six or seven.

0:19:02 > 0:19:06Why have you decided to sell after 50 odd years?

0:19:06 > 0:19:07It was just something that...

0:19:07 > 0:19:11Kids today aren't interested in the likes of clockwork train sets,

0:19:11 > 0:19:16so now's the time to maybe try and sell it, and use the money for something else.

0:19:16 > 0:19:21What I like about this is that it's a pocket money collection, you formed it on your pocket money?

0:19:21 > 0:19:24What an investment, we hope, it's turned out to be.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28- We're going to find out. Good luck, both of you. Here we go.- Thanks.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Lot 316, a Hornby goods train set, number 30,

0:19:31 > 0:19:37with level crossing, water tank, signal arm, etc.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39£200 for the Hornby? 200, 150?

0:19:39 > 0:19:42Will you start me at 100? £50, then?

0:19:42 > 0:19:4550 bid. 60, 70.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48There's quite a few people in the room, David. They're eager.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52All done at £70? 80, fresh bidder.

0:19:52 > 0:19:5785, I'll take five. All done at 85?

0:19:57 > 0:20:03Yes! £85, top end of the estimate. That's great.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07I think you can go and start another collection now, something else.

0:20:07 > 0:20:08Something more grown up!

0:20:15 > 0:20:19Time to take the bull by the horns, it's my turn to do a valuation.

0:20:19 > 0:20:25We've got the two snuff mulls belonging to Anne, with a valuation of 150 to 250.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- They've been in the family for a long time?- Yes, they have.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31- But you've decided to sell them? - Yes, along with the quaich.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Which I had trouble pronouncing!

0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Hopefully we're going to find a buyer here today.- We'll see.

0:20:37 > 0:20:43179, ladies and gentlemen, a lovely lot comprising of

0:20:43 > 0:20:47a George III horn and agate snuff mull.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50Another white metal-mounted snuff mull

0:20:50 > 0:20:53and a silver and bone quaich with Edinburgh marks.

0:20:53 > 0:20:58I'm holding bids, ladies and gentlemen,

0:20:58 > 0:21:01and I'll start the bidding at £140.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05150, 160, 170, 180,

0:21:05 > 0:21:10190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240,

0:21:10 > 0:21:17250, 260, 270, 280, 290, 300, 310...

0:21:17 > 0:21:19Do I let my jaw drop?

0:21:19 > 0:21:22No, not yet, save it!

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Don't peak too soon, Anne!

0:21:24 > 0:21:29330, 340 on the phone.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32345, back in.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35A canny fiver there.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37350.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41It's on the phone at £350.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43All done at 350?

0:21:43 > 0:21:46All done at 350? 350.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Now you can let your jaw drop!

0:21:49 > 0:21:51I think that's a great result, don't you?

0:21:51 > 0:21:53That's a good one.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55- A bit of a surprise.- It was.

0:21:55 > 0:21:58There's some commission to pay, as you know, that's auctions for you.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00- And the insurance. - And the insurance.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02- What are you going to do with the rest?- Put it in the bank.

0:22:08 > 0:22:14So far, so good, and when we come back James has some good news for one owner.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Of all the things I've seen on Flog It! for the last couple of years,

0:22:17 > 0:22:20this is one of my favourites. I love it.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30Kilmarnock is at the heart of Ayrshire, a proud historic region of south-west Scotland.

0:22:30 > 0:22:34It's got a beautiful, rugged landscape but it also hides a wealth

0:22:34 > 0:22:37of invention, creativeness and industry.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41And whatever the field, be it art, music, politics, sport, literature,

0:22:41 > 0:22:45Ayrshire has created some of the world's best innovators.

0:22:48 > 0:22:52To find out more, I've come to the magnificent Dick Institute,

0:22:52 > 0:22:57Kilmarnock's majestic Museum and Art Gallery, which is currently housing

0:22:57 > 0:23:02an exhibition celebrating key innovators who were born, lived or worked in Ayrshire.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Just some of the world famous names to come from this small region

0:23:15 > 0:23:18are Alexander Fleming, discoverer of penicillin.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21John Boyd Dunlop, inventor of the pneumatic tyre.

0:23:21 > 0:23:29Robert Burns, Scotland's national poet, and that famous freedom fighter, Robert the Bruce.

0:23:29 > 0:23:32To add a modern twist to the exhibition, the museum commissioned

0:23:32 > 0:23:38photojournalist Kieran Dodds to take a fresh look at just some of the innovators.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39How did you get involved with this?

0:23:39 > 0:23:45I've been working as a photojournalist for the last seven years, and I saw the advertisement

0:23:45 > 0:23:49looking for an artist to do a work on Ayrshire innovators.

0:23:49 > 0:23:53So I suggested doing a series of large-scale portraits

0:23:53 > 0:23:57of people in Ayrshire who have changed the world, basically.

0:24:01 > 0:24:05I spent a lot of time thinking why Scotland, and Ayrshire in particular,

0:24:05 > 0:24:07had such an influence in the world for innovation.

0:24:07 > 0:24:14I was looking into the past, there's a great tradition of warriors, leaders and fighters

0:24:14 > 0:24:17from this area, and I think that's because it's a hard land

0:24:17 > 0:24:20to work and live in, a harsh environment.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23If you've been working there and some guy comes up from down south

0:24:23 > 0:24:27and tries to get your land, or to rule over you, you're not going to give it up easily.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29So a very independent and passionate spirit.

0:24:29 > 0:24:32And what you've done is you've done past and present, in a way?

0:24:32 > 0:24:35Trying to transport the audience back to see things

0:24:35 > 0:24:39that aren't there any more, but have a profound impact on our society.

0:24:41 > 0:24:43Great photos.

0:24:43 > 0:24:47I get this one straight away, John Dunlop and the tyre.

0:24:47 > 0:24:49He was watching his son playing on a bicycle,

0:24:49 > 0:24:52without any tyres, and he came up with that idea.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56Exactly right. I had this idea of trying to show the impact of a pneumatic tyre

0:24:56 > 0:24:59in the world today, so from the large wheels of the jumbo

0:24:59 > 0:25:03down to the little tricycle that the girl's on.

0:25:03 > 0:25:07I get the narrative now with the little girl. Where is that?

0:25:07 > 0:25:10It's down in Prestwick Airport, which is just a few miles away in Ayrshire.

0:25:10 > 0:25:15It's the only place you get 747s, the big jumbo jets, landing in Scotland,

0:25:15 > 0:25:18so I had the idea of getting a child underneath this jumbo jet.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Took a bit of convincing, the guy at Prestwick.

0:25:20 > 0:25:27This girl, she's the daughter of one of the cargo handlers there, and she was great, just sat on the bike.

0:25:27 > 0:25:31It's lovely in that bright pink like that, with that whole industrial backdrop to it.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34- It's just sort of...- Softens it. - It comes out, doesn't it?

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Who's this lady playing football?

0:25:42 > 0:25:46This is Rose Riley, she was the first Scots person ever to win the World Cup,

0:25:46 > 0:25:51and she was captaining Italy at the time, though she's got no Italian blood whatsoever.

0:25:51 > 0:25:53How did she manage to play for Italy, then?

0:25:53 > 0:25:57When she was a child, I think seven years old, a scout came

0:25:57 > 0:26:02- from Celtic to sign her up, sign- him - up, they thought it was a boy.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05But then she couldn't play football in Scotland,

0:26:05 > 0:26:07so she went to France and played for Reims.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Professionally?- Yeah, played for a women's team there.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13- And then she was signed up by AC Milan and wore the number ten shirt. - Gosh.

0:26:13 > 0:26:18And she won two Serie A out of four, and then they asked her to captain Italy in the World Cup.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21What talent! How did you find her?

0:26:21 > 0:26:25She's known locally, and so you just ask around and people mention her.

0:26:25 > 0:26:32She was inducted to the Scotland football hall of fame, so she's recognised at a national level.

0:26:32 > 0:26:35I just phoned her up and she said, "Come round for a cup of tea."

0:26:35 > 0:26:40In fact, she's living round the corner from this pitch, and it was on this pitch that she played as a girl.

0:26:40 > 0:26:43So she's gone full circle, all around Europe...?

0:26:43 > 0:26:45And she's given away all her trophies

0:26:45 > 0:26:49and just living in the town in Ayrshire she grew up in.

0:26:49 > 0:26:52- She looks happy, doesn't she? - Yeah, she's a good footballer.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00I spotted this on the way in as well, the chap with the racing bike, who's he?

0:27:00 > 0:27:02This is Graeme Obree.

0:27:02 > 0:27:08He, from an amateur from a backwater in Ayrshire, managed to break the world one-hour cycling record

0:27:08 > 0:27:13- with a bike that he had made from parts from his washing machine, among other things.- Really?

0:27:13 > 0:27:16This bike here, he had welded together from other bikes.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19He just kind of cuts and pastes and puts things together.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22He was quite reluctant at first to have his photo taken,

0:27:22 > 0:27:25and when I got there I wasn't quite sure what shot I was going to do.

0:27:25 > 0:27:29I wanted to get this kind of idea of putting everything together.

0:27:29 > 0:27:33I like the way it's been framed with the graffiti. Did you do that on the wall?

0:27:33 > 0:27:35That wasn't me, not guilty!

0:27:35 > 0:27:36Artistic licence?

0:27:36 > 0:27:40It was just perfect, actually, for the idea of cutting and pasting.

0:27:40 > 0:27:45Graeme Obree summarises the idea of fighting against the status quo.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48He started cycling on bikes that he had modified himself,

0:27:48 > 0:27:53and when he broke the world record he was then banned, or his bike design was banned.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56- Really?- Yeah, by the authorities.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59Again, he epitomises the warrior spirit and he just built

0:27:59 > 0:28:02another design and went for the record again and broke it.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04- Did he?- Yeah, incredible guy.

0:28:04 > 0:28:09I guess it really does sum it up, the warrior spirit, it's alive today.

0:28:09 > 0:28:13And it's still very much there, innovative and pioneering,

0:28:13 > 0:28:16turning ideas into something that's successful.

0:28:21 > 0:28:24In its own way, Kieran's original approach to his photography

0:28:24 > 0:28:28has carried on that Ayrshire innovators tradition.

0:28:32 > 0:28:36Back to the Palace Theatre, and James is ready with his next valuation.

0:28:36 > 0:28:40Katie, it just wouldn't be Flog It! without a bit of Clarice Cliff?

0:28:40 > 0:28:45- No, that's why I brought it. - You've made my day. A family thing?

0:28:45 > 0:28:48From an aunt, yeah.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51I liked it, and she gave it to me.

0:28:51 > 0:28:56We have, of course, talked so much about Clarice Cliff on Flog It! over the years,

0:28:56 > 0:28:58but just as a brief reminder,

0:28:58 > 0:29:01the reason why she was so important was because,

0:29:01 > 0:29:02after the First World War,

0:29:02 > 0:29:05the men had been killed in such vast numbers,

0:29:05 > 0:29:08it left vacancies in the work force for women

0:29:08 > 0:29:11to start taking on roles that they never had before.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14And Clarice Cliff took advantage of just that.

0:29:14 > 0:29:20In around the 1920s, she started designing wonderful colours,

0:29:20 > 0:29:23wonderful designs, very bright,

0:29:23 > 0:29:26and, in a way, the art-deco movement was a rebellion

0:29:26 > 0:29:29against the depression of the First World War.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31So it really had its time, and it worked perfectly.

0:29:31 > 0:29:35When it comes to the price for Clarice Cliff...

0:29:36 > 0:29:41..it varies greatly from design to design, shape to shape,

0:29:41 > 0:29:45and also important is condition. Use them?

0:29:45 > 0:29:47- No, I've never used them.- Really?

0:29:47 > 0:29:50Dust them and put them back in the cupboard.

0:29:52 > 0:29:57Since Flog It! was coming here today, I thought, "Well, let me take my Clarice Cliff, see how it goes."

0:29:57 > 0:30:01So, tell me, do you have any ideas of value?

0:30:01 > 0:30:04I thought maybe about £100?

0:30:04 > 0:30:06- Spot on.- Good.

0:30:06 > 0:30:08Let's put an estimate of 100 to 150,

0:30:08 > 0:30:12it's got that little bit of damage under the cover there,

0:30:12 > 0:30:16that chip there, and the crack in the basin, but it's a good design

0:30:16 > 0:30:18and the teapot and the sugar basin, of course,

0:30:18 > 0:30:22are the most sought-after pieces, along with the milk jug.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24You'd get only one teapot, of course, one milk jug,

0:30:24 > 0:30:29one sugar basin but maybe six, eight or 12 cups and saucers.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31Those are the pieces that people really want.

0:30:31 > 0:30:36So, 100 to 150 estimate, and I'm sure they'll sell.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38Somebody will like them.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41What are you going to do, spend the money at the auction?

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Maybe, if something takes my eye.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Let's do that, and see what happens.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48Super. Thanks very much, James.

0:30:57 > 0:30:59Hello, Candice.

0:30:59 > 0:31:02Now, did you bring this in on the bus?

0:31:02 > 0:31:04No, no, thank goodness not!

0:31:04 > 0:31:05Just brought it up in the car today.

0:31:05 > 0:31:07I gather it's your birthday today?

0:31:07 > 0:31:09- Yes, it is. - Many happy returns of the day.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12I won't ask you how old you are.

0:31:12 > 0:31:13You're a lot younger than I am.

0:31:13 > 0:31:16Now, I love this, I think it's great.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20A cabinet, glazed on four sides,

0:31:20 > 0:31:26and designed to advertise a particular chocolate-maker.

0:31:26 > 0:31:30The decoration would be acid-etched

0:31:30 > 0:31:36from behind. You'd blank out the rest of the sheet of glass, you'd apply acid to that bit

0:31:36 > 0:31:41which shows through the glass, and this lettering and these images would come up.

0:31:41 > 0:31:47The base has been carved, and this would have been filled

0:31:47 > 0:31:50with a compound which would then have been gilded,

0:31:50 > 0:31:54so that would have shone out really nicely.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57I must say, it's been through the wars a bit.

0:31:57 > 0:32:02It was in my grandfather's store at the back of his garden, and basically

0:32:02 > 0:32:07he stored paint tins in it, it had screwdrivers, you name it, it was buried underneath it.

0:32:07 > 0:32:12It's actually in remarkably good condition, given what it's been through.

0:32:12 > 0:32:16My mother had one of these, so I know roughly what they're worth.

0:32:16 > 0:32:23It was in much better condition, and she sold it by auction recently for £120.

0:32:23 > 0:32:27Sadly, I don't think you're going to get £120 for this one

0:32:27 > 0:32:31because of the damage, because of the unhelpful Formica,

0:32:31 > 0:32:35so I think we're going to have to keep the estimate down a bit.

0:32:35 > 0:32:40I'd suggest a figure of 50 to £80. Does that sound OK to you?

0:32:40 > 0:32:45That's all right, because it was going to end up in a skip. That's basically where it was going.

0:32:45 > 0:32:47Anything's better than nothing.

0:32:47 > 0:32:51OK, so we'll go with an estimate of 50 to £80.

0:32:51 > 0:32:56- I'd like to put a reserve of £45 on it, if that's OK with you? - That's fine.

0:32:56 > 0:32:59That's great, I look forward to seeing you at the sale.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Enjoy the rest of your birthday, won't you?

0:33:01 > 0:33:04- Thank you very much.- All the best.

0:33:12 > 0:33:16James has another painting, but this one's got him really excited.

0:33:16 > 0:33:23Joan, tell me, what's this Canadian picture doing just outside Glasgow?

0:33:23 > 0:33:26It was found in a skip.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29- In a skip?- In a skip where my husband was working.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31No! Where?!

0:33:31 > 0:33:35In Ayr, a big hotel was getting modernised.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38Everything was to be thrown out.

0:33:38 > 0:33:42So he asked if he could have it, so he got it and that was it.

0:33:43 > 0:33:48You don't often get an auctioneer that's speechless, but my goodness.

0:33:48 > 0:33:53- That's the dead honest truth. - I just can't believe what people put in a skip.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57But I have to say, this painting...I love it.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59- I absolutely love it. Do you?- No.

0:33:59 > 0:34:01No?

0:34:01 > 0:34:05It's signed R Pilot and 28.

0:34:05 > 0:34:13Robert Pilot was one of the most famous Canadian artists of his time.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15After World War One,

0:34:15 > 0:34:20when Robert Pilot returned from fighting in Europe,

0:34:20 > 0:34:25he was asked and invited to join the Group of Seven,

0:34:25 > 0:34:30which is THE big name when it comes to Canadian art.

0:34:30 > 0:34:37The Group of Seven are what people always talk about in Canada as almost the forefathers of their art.

0:34:37 > 0:34:40That's when Canadian art really came into its own,

0:34:40 > 0:34:44so he really is a very, very important artist.

0:34:44 > 0:34:45- Wow.- OK?

0:34:46 > 0:34:50It's a lovely picture that really has taken its influence in the Impressionist movement.

0:34:50 > 0:34:55We're talking about something that's blocks of colour

0:34:55 > 0:34:58applied to give impressions of buildings,

0:34:58 > 0:35:01some with palette knife, some with brush,

0:35:01 > 0:35:05and this tug, I think, is just perfectly positioned in the river.

0:35:05 > 0:35:08Wonderful, absolutely love it.

0:35:08 > 0:35:09I still don't think much of it.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12- You still don't?- No. It just doesn't do anything for me.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15So if somebody had come to your house yesterday

0:35:15 > 0:35:18- and offered you 50 quid for it, would you have taken it?- No.

0:35:18 > 0:35:23Well, I think it should be worth 600 to £1,000.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32Wow, wait till hubby hears that, that's brilliant.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35It's a great picture. I absolutely love it.

0:35:35 > 0:35:41And of all the things I've seen on Flog It! for the last couple of years, this is one of my favourites.

0:35:42 > 0:35:46From a skip! It's not bad.

0:35:49 > 0:35:55What a surprise for Joan on her skip find, the landscape by R Pilot.

0:35:55 > 0:35:58And that's not the only gem we're taking to auction.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01When birthday girl Candice found this cabinet,

0:36:01 > 0:36:05it was full of her grandfather's old paint tins and tools.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08David valued it at 50 to £80.

0:36:08 > 0:36:12And never used but often dusted, Kate's selling this pretty pair,

0:36:12 > 0:36:18a Clarice Cliff teapot and sugar bowl, valued at £100 - £150.

0:36:18 > 0:36:22And at the auction, that's the first lot going under the hammer.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25- Now, you've had these a long time, haven't you?- Yes.

0:36:25 > 0:36:29- Were you surprised at the valuation James put on?- Yes. - Hopefully we'll get you £150.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31That would be nice, wouldn't it?

0:36:31 > 0:36:36It's a field that anybody can collect, from £20 right the way up to £10,000.

0:36:36 > 0:36:40It's got a good entry level. So, hopefully, the collectors are here.

0:36:40 > 0:36:41We're going to find out, Kate.

0:36:41 > 0:36:46All the talking's over with, it's now time for some auction action, here we go.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Lot 478.

0:36:50 > 0:36:56Clarice Cliff daffodil shape teapot and sugar bowl. Can we see £200?

0:36:56 > 0:37:01200, 150. Start me at 100. Start me at 100 for the Clarice Cliff. 100?

0:37:01 > 0:37:0680, then. 80 bid. Any advance on 80?

0:37:06 > 0:37:1090, 100, 110, 120...

0:37:10 > 0:37:12Steady climb.

0:37:12 > 0:37:16130, 140...140...

0:37:16 > 0:37:18150 with me. I'm holding bids.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20The bid's with me at 150.

0:37:20 > 0:37:22160, fresh bidder.

0:37:22 > 0:37:29With you, sir, at 160. Any advance on 160 for Clarice Cliff?

0:37:29 > 0:37:32All done at 160? 160.

0:37:32 > 0:37:35Yes! You've got to be happy with that, Kate?

0:37:35 > 0:37:37Top end of James's estimate.

0:37:37 > 0:37:43There's commission to pay, but hopefully there's a bit of spending money there, isn't there?

0:37:43 > 0:37:45- Yes, indeed. - Or is it going to pay some bills?

0:37:45 > 0:37:47- No, no.- Treat yourself?

0:37:47 > 0:37:49- Treat myself to something. - Good for you.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01I tell you what, I love chocolate, don't you?

0:38:01 > 0:38:05I could do with this cabinet as well because I eat tons of the stuff.

0:38:05 > 0:38:07It's a Fry's chocolate display cabinet and it belongs to Candice.

0:38:07 > 0:38:11You found this in your father's shed?

0:38:11 > 0:38:13My grandfather's shed.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16Just down the back of his garden, he had almost like a workshop,

0:38:16 > 0:38:19and he used to put everything in this building.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22It was just full of screws and nails...?

0:38:22 > 0:38:25Everything he's collected over the years, basically.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27We got a valuation of 50 to £80 on this.

0:38:27 > 0:38:31I think the thing about this, Candice, we know the condition

0:38:31 > 0:38:34isn't great, but if you collect advertising memorabilia,

0:38:34 > 0:38:37little beer jugs or cigarette advertising things,

0:38:37 > 0:38:40where better to put them than in a display cabinet like this?

0:38:40 > 0:38:42I think that's where it'll end up.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45It's going under the hammer now, good luck.

0:38:45 > 0:38:49Lot 300, a Fry's chocolate display cabinet

0:38:49 > 0:38:52with the etched glass front panel.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54Start me at £100? 100?

0:38:54 > 0:38:5750, then? 50 bid. 60, 70, 80...

0:38:57 > 0:39:01- This is a good start.- Goodness me!

0:39:01 > 0:39:07100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10- £150!- My goodness me!

0:39:10 > 0:39:12Any advance on 150?

0:39:12 > 0:39:14160, fresh bidder.

0:39:14 > 0:39:19Any advance on 160? 170...

0:39:19 > 0:39:23Gosh, it's going on. It's to do with potential, isn't it?

0:39:23 > 0:39:25Someone's seen the potential in this.

0:39:25 > 0:39:29180, 190, 200.

0:39:29 > 0:39:33£200, any advance on 200?

0:39:33 > 0:39:38All done at 200, 200.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41I can't believe that!

0:39:41 > 0:39:43- That really is good. - My valuation was so low,

0:39:43 > 0:39:46- I do apologise! - You were just slightly under!

0:39:46 > 0:39:49It was that damage that put me off, but it didn't matter.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51It obviously didn't put anybody else off.

0:39:51 > 0:39:54You've got to go home and tell your grandfather.

0:39:54 > 0:39:56- He'll be really pleased. - He will, won't he? £200.

0:39:56 > 0:39:59It's something he's kept for years and years, too.

0:39:59 > 0:40:00What will he do with the money?

0:40:00 > 0:40:04It's going towards his house, we're renovating it for him.

0:40:04 > 0:40:07- You are?- Yes, I am. I'm helping, anyway, I'm not doing it all!

0:40:07 > 0:40:11- Thank you so much for coming in, and good luck with all the DIY. - Thank you very much.

0:40:18 > 0:40:23Next up we've got a wonderful oil painting, value 600 to £1,000.

0:40:23 > 0:40:27It belongs to Joan, we've got the painting, but unfortunately Joan hasn't turned up yet.

0:40:27 > 0:40:31But it's a lovely thing and it was found on a skip.

0:40:31 > 0:40:34How green can that be? Proper recycling.

0:40:34 > 0:40:35Fantastic! What a thing to find.

0:40:35 > 0:40:40Lovely quality picture, very small, only about the size of that. But lovely detail.

0:40:40 > 0:40:46These New World pictures are really doing well, anything Australia, New Zealand, Canadian.

0:40:46 > 0:40:50It's just about to go under the hammer, I hope Joan walks in any second now,

0:40:50 > 0:40:52because she's going to miss it. Here we go.

0:42:37 > 0:42:41Any advance on 1,900?

0:42:45 > 0:42:48- Yes!- I just wish Joan was here to see that.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50That's a very, very good result.

0:42:50 > 0:42:53As you said, James, New World art is hot right now.

0:42:53 > 0:42:56Those guys were on the phone from Canada, they know all about it.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59We don't, but luckily enough we do now.

0:42:59 > 0:43:01- Gosh.- Lookout for that name, Pilot.

0:43:01 > 0:43:06It's a great result for us, and it really sums up Bonny Scotland.

0:43:06 > 0:43:08Marvellous! See you next time.
