:00:43. > :00:45.Eric Knowles is here to talk about the TV treasure
:00:46. > :00:53.Plus we're joined by a man who's been travelling the length
:00:54. > :00:55.and breadth of the English countryside to find hidden
:00:56. > :01:06.His only little. He will sit over the.
:01:07. > :01:09.And our very own treasure, Susan Calman tells us why we'd be
:01:10. > :01:23.Our very own treasure, she is twinkly. I don't know why... Is
:01:24. > :01:25.there something wrong with my face? I didn't mess up, I was drinking in
:01:26. > :01:27.your beauty. But in other TV news,
:01:28. > :01:32.fanfare please... You are very good at that
:01:33. > :01:37.trumpeting. The nominations for the prestigious
:01:38. > :01:39.TV Bafta's have been announced. Suranne Jones has been
:01:40. > :01:41.nominated for best actress for her role in the hit
:01:42. > :01:43.series Doctor Foster. And fresh from his Oscar triumph

:01:50. > :01:52.which leads Peter Kaye's Car Share and Channel
:01:53. > :01:56.4's This is England get three each and Adele gets one
:01:57. > :02:05.for her BBC TV special. We are waiting, fingers crossed. Is
:02:06. > :02:11.your phone definitely on? Have they rang, yet? Not yet. Excited! Here is
:02:12. > :02:12.a good story. Now here's a good story,
:02:13. > :02:14.apparently tear-jerking TV A psychologist tells
:02:15. > :02:17.the Radio Times today that blubbing in front
:02:18. > :02:29.of the box can reduce stress I was quite happy about this. I
:02:30. > :02:35.blubber at everything. Yes. Including One Born Every Minute.
:02:36. > :02:41.Super vet. She is forever gently weeping in front of the TV. When
:02:42. > :02:45.Vera died, Jack's little swamp passed away, I was in bits. You will
:02:46. > :02:48.set me off, let's get a guest on. Now for our first guest,
:02:49. > :02:51.he's potty about pottery, mad for ceramics and gaga
:02:52. > :02:53.for glassware on The Antiques This is expert Eric Knowles
:02:54. > :03:02.in his first ever appearance I am afraid they are in a bit of a
:03:03. > :03:08.state. We haven't done a thing to them. That is the best thing to do,
:03:09. > :03:14.leave them alone. In this condition sale room value would be in the
:03:15. > :03:17.region of ?800- ?1000. That is the pair of them? Yes. They are not a
:03:18. > :03:25.pair. Please welcome Eric Knowles. First ever appearance. Scary, isn't
:03:26. > :03:40.it? Is it a BBC cutbacks? I got rid of
:03:41. > :03:43.it about 15 years ago. You are looking very dapper. Thank you, I
:03:44. > :03:51.thought I would try to rise to the smart. You have been honoured for a
:03:52. > :03:55.long time. 35 years this time. What do you love so much about it? I
:03:56. > :04:04.approach every programme as though it is the first. That is the small
:04:05. > :04:08.boy and nosy parker in me. I am wondering what will come out of the
:04:09. > :04:13.cardboard box or the black plastic bin liner. In days gone by it used
:04:14. > :04:18.to be wrapped in newspaper. We are more upmarket, it is mainly bubble
:04:19. > :04:23.wrap. It is such a successful show. Your love for antiques started very
:04:24. > :04:29.young, didn't it? It did. Antiques is one word for things that are old.
:04:30. > :04:36.My son was at school, what does your dad do and he said "My dad knows a
:04:37. > :04:40.lot about dead people's stuff". I grew up in North East Lancashire in
:04:41. > :04:49.the shadow of Pendle Hill in a place called Nelson. Basically, my efforts
:04:50. > :04:55.were all in the countryside. There were farmhouses with 1600, 1700 over
:04:56. > :05:00.the door lintel. On top of that, there were ruined abbeys and
:05:01. > :05:07.castles. I love this picture of. You. This is so sweet, what is going
:05:08. > :05:14.on here? Our first museum of collectables. 62, don't go there. A
:05:15. > :05:19.twinkle. 20, Saint Pauls Road, Nelson, Lancashire. Week seven of
:05:20. > :05:23.the school holidays in 62. I'm bored, I'm bored. My mother said you
:05:24. > :05:26.all collect something, bored, I'm bored. My mother said you
:05:27. > :05:31.put a museum of collectables on the back lawn. So sweet. We did and then
:05:32. > :05:36.we charged all of the other kids a penny to come in. Nice, made a few
:05:37. > :05:46.quid. They were more bored than we were. It was fantastic. Sunday
:05:47. > :05:52.night's show, The Antiques Roadshow history made. Gabby Logan brought in
:05:53. > :05:56.the FA Cup, let's look at that moment. Along with maybe the
:05:57. > :06:01.Wimbledon trophy, this is the most famous cup in the country.
:06:02. > :06:08.Quite comfortably, this has got to be worth well over ?1 million. Wow.
:06:09. > :06:11.The highest value piece of silver I have ever valued on The Antiques
:06:12. > :06:21.Roadshow. Exciting times. And incredibly, out
:06:22. > :06:23.on special day release from the Wembley Stadium
:06:24. > :06:31.tour, it's here! Danielle and Gary, the security for
:06:32. > :06:36.the FA Cup. If I was to grab it and leg it, would you come after me?
:06:37. > :06:41.Yes, I think so. They are not even saying anything. ?1 million. It is
:06:42. > :06:48.probably the most, if I can use, the most iconic piece of silver that we
:06:49. > :06:55.all know. It was made in Bradford in 1911. Fatorini. The first team to
:06:56. > :07:00.win it was Bradford, rather appropriate. Everybody wants to do
:07:01. > :07:04.this, can I do this? Football fans. My tribal team is Burnley and they
:07:05. > :07:12.won in 1930, haven't won since. The FA Cup is so familiar
:07:13. > :07:24.you would have seen this So much history involved. Some
:07:25. > :07:28.lovely design on it, some grapes? LAUGHTER
:07:29. > :07:34.I read about it. That is the strange thing about it. According to
:07:35. > :07:38.Alistair, he is one of the greatest experts in the world, he did not pay
:07:39. > :07:45.me to say that, it is covered in great. Thank you! Everybody laughed.
:07:46. > :07:51.-- covered in grapes. Probably designed as a wine cooler. Now you
:07:52. > :07:57.have an interested, she is all over that. Do you ever worry you will
:07:58. > :08:04.smash stuff? I work in the ceramics department, you are in a high risk
:08:05. > :08:07.zone. You have got to temper a bit, you cannot be overcautious, that is
:08:08. > :08:14.when you drop things but you cannot be blase. There was a stage when I
:08:15. > :08:18.tapped on the security and it was sheer bravado. Touch wood... Has
:08:19. > :08:26.there been anything you really loved that you bought yourself? Not on the
:08:27. > :08:35.programme, that is strictly taboo. There is still time, it might
:08:36. > :08:44.happen. We could use up the FA Cup. This was mine and's. -- my nana's.
:08:45. > :08:57.This is what I had in my lounge at home. It is from 1970. Probably
:08:58. > :09:03.Bolton, the area it was found. Was it? These were really big in Bolton
:09:04. > :09:08.in the 1970s. Oh! Can I move to Miami and by a massive house? The
:09:09. > :09:12.problem with this is that it is a left-handed one and they don't fetch
:09:13. > :09:19.anything like as much as a right-handed ones. Darn. Having said
:09:20. > :09:23.that, it is a family treasure. If you had two of those, they would be
:09:24. > :09:36.worth twice as much. LAUGHTER Eder that's exciting, find the other
:09:37. > :09:40.one. Priceless for me. I am happy but check out this man's reaction,
:09:41. > :09:48.she was gutted. You could get between ?200 and ?300. Is that all?
:09:49. > :09:54.Yeah, that's all. My goodness! After all those years. I didn't keep
:09:55. > :10:00.anything myself for 50 years and I can only get ?400. Top end. I never
:10:01. > :10:07.heard the like. LAUGHTER Bless him, he was furious. It looks
:10:08. > :10:13.like he wants to get an axe out. Two saw it up. How do you let people
:10:14. > :10:19.down gently? They are coming with prized possessions and hoping to get
:10:20. > :10:22.lots of money for it? We are there to tell far more people that what
:10:23. > :10:25.they have got isn't worth much that we temper it by saying in some cases
:10:26. > :10:31.it is a family heirloom and it is treasured. Do you and your family.
:10:32. > :10:37.Forget the money. Forget the money. I have been accused of having far
:10:38. > :10:45.more people actually cancel world cruises than ever book one. Such a
:10:46. > :10:49.lovely show. Long may it go on with people queueing up with all of their
:10:50. > :10:51.treasures. I know. Priceless to have you with us this evening. Go wild
:10:52. > :10:55.for Eric Knowles. APPLAUSE If you like it, you know
:10:56. > :10:58.where to find it, The Antiques Now, have you ever watched any TV
:10:59. > :11:03.that's made a lasting impression? Well, we asked our TMTV friends
:11:04. > :11:10.which TV shows had an impact on them and this is
:11:11. > :11:22.what they had to say. The TV show that had the biggest
:11:23. > :11:29.impact on me growing up was a series called The Young Ones with Rik
:11:30. > :11:33.Mayall. It -- I loved it. I would repeat what they said, I would do
:11:34. > :11:43.impressions and I love to Rik Mayall. Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
:11:44. > :11:47.Friday nights. Brideshead revisited. It created a world I found
:11:48. > :11:55.believable. I found that immensely compelling. The kids shows on a
:11:56. > :12:01.Saturday morning. Why Don't You? And swap shop, they made a difference to
:12:02. > :12:06.my life, such fond memories. Batman, the 1960s Batman and Robin. It was
:12:07. > :12:09.possible to be a wealthy playboy Finau philanthropist and a caped
:12:10. > :12:14.crusader, that would be the way I would go. Blue Peter. I loved it, I
:12:15. > :12:20.loved making things that I wanted to be a blue Peter presenter. Magpie. I
:12:21. > :12:27.watched blue Peter but magpie was more naughty. Saved by the bell. I
:12:28. > :12:37.loved it and everything about it. I reminded myself of Screech. I watch
:12:38. > :12:42.the news regularly with my parents and learned so much by watching the
:12:43. > :12:47.old correspondence. FreshPrince of Bel Air. They don't make shows like
:12:48. > :12:57.that any more. Grange Hill. I grew up in the 80s, 90s, standard. That
:12:58. > :13:03.was. Wondered -- one of the first shows I watched at 9pm, Minder. It
:13:04. > :13:09.made me feel very grown-up. Stingray. Pitts ruled the world. If
:13:10. > :13:14.it wasn't that we would be ruled by amphibians. Junior kick-start. Some
:13:15. > :13:19.may be too young to remember. It got me into motorbikes, I loved it. And
:13:20. > :13:21.Peter Purves is an absolute legend. Very good.
:13:22. > :13:24.Now we're joined by everyone's favourite lady.
:13:25. > :13:34.Susan, what have you got for us today?
:13:35. > :13:39.It is always exciting when you come win with facts and figures. You
:13:40. > :13:48.interviewed Tom Heaton Countryfile. It was lovely but my favourite
:13:49. > :14:00.moment was Need to. Do I need to worry about
:14:01. > :14:07.being bitten? I am glad about that. Not entirely true. Don't put your
:14:08. > :14:17.hand in its mouth. My goodness. Painful. I used to be a lawyer, I
:14:18. > :14:20.don't know if you know this. I am always thinking of health and
:14:21. > :14:21.safety, wanted to talk about the three most important rules of
:14:22. > :14:28.television. Number two, never work with animals,
:14:29. > :14:32.Number three, never pay Let's talk about the most
:14:33. > :14:41.important of those rules. You are incredible, wonderful
:14:42. > :14:43.presenters, but even you could be upstaged by animals. I have a handy
:14:44. > :14:59.guide. Number one... Animals have their own houses. You
:15:00. > :15:07.are an expert with all of that lingo! I am like a modern Johnny
:15:08. > :15:11.Morris! Do not go into their own environment because that can upset
:15:12. > :15:16.them. What would happen if I came into your house uninvited? You have!
:15:17. > :15:19.And I do apologise once again. If you do, there's likely
:15:20. > :15:21.to be repercussions, as regional news presenter
:15:22. > :15:28.Nigel Farrell found out, Absolute luxury but there is one
:15:29. > :15:44.important thing missing from his life. Get off! BEEP. Get off! I did
:15:45. > :15:58.not realise that they were sober just? Well... If you have seen Babe
:15:59. > :15:59.two, you will know they are. The most dangerous animal in the world?
:16:00. > :16:04.Tiger? Mosquito. Now, I know we all love our pets,
:16:05. > :16:16.but sometimes, admit it, We can see with Sarah Greene and
:16:17. > :16:22.Gordon the Gopher on Going Live and Gordon has an incident with a shih
:16:23. > :16:29.tzu. Carriers are designed to be nipping other dogs and you will find
:16:30. > :16:35.that they tend to go after ankles. Colleagues, they are taught to go
:16:36. > :16:48.after sheep and things. And occasionally... Shih tzus...
:16:49. > :17:02.LAUGHTER. I am sorry! He is just very
:17:03. > :17:03.affectionate! Another fact... Lassie has got print on the Hollywood Walk
:17:04. > :17:07.of Fame! Number three... It takes something to upstage
:17:08. > :17:13.Graham Norton, but in this clip from 2008 he brought his
:17:14. > :17:34.Labradoodle, Bailey, It goes horribly wrong. There you
:17:35. > :17:51.go. This might last... BARKING. I would go to something else! BARKING.
:17:52. > :18:01.We are going to another item about the decline of the picture postcard!
:18:02. > :18:08.Move on! You both have dogs? Let us have a look... The Maltese terrier,
:18:09. > :18:14.that is mine. But no. And that is my black labrador. Would he come into
:18:15. > :18:21.the studio? He has been risk assessed by the BBC. In case you
:18:22. > :18:24.Jeremy Vine! Mine would just be lying here quite happily. Number
:18:25. > :18:42.four... In 1977 Richard Whitely had an
:18:43. > :18:50.incident with a ferret. Ow! Ow! It will not hurt you. It is hurting
:18:51. > :18:58.the! Put it down. I cannot do anything. Can you just hold it? This
:18:59. > :19:04.must be the climax of the situation...
:19:05. > :19:12.Thank you. If that had meant his nurse, she would have been right
:19:13. > :19:20.through to the bone. She was playing with you. One bad apple Andy Holt
:19:21. > :19:31.barrel gets tarnished so tonight, we have in the studio, if ferret and I
:19:32. > :19:41.have named him Aled. How is it? He is quite quickly. And, how can I put
:19:42. > :19:53.this politely... He stinks! But he is very cute. Lovely. Happy? I would
:19:54. > :20:00.not say happy! But I am coping OK. The bottom line is never work with
:20:01. > :20:03.animals, unless it is a ferret! He is sweet. Thank you so much. And
:20:04. > :20:07.thank you to Aled, our lovely Next up is a man who's ditched
:20:08. > :20:14.the safe haven of the TV studio to take
:20:15. > :20:15.on the great outdoors. Chris Hollins is here to tell us
:20:16. > :20:18.all about the hidden gems of the British countryside in BBC
:20:19. > :20:21.One's Secret Britain. Here he is on top of the world
:20:22. > :20:35.in tonight's episode. Shall we have a look at the view?
:20:36. > :20:37.This secret that of Britain. That is amazing. It gives you a different
:20:38. > :20:50.perspective. And that smell is the ferret and not
:20:51. > :20:59.me! Tell us a bit about that
:21:00. > :21:11.clip, where are you? That is in the Lake District,
:21:12. > :21:16.Troutdale Pinnacle. Secret Britain, collect district is beautiful, that
:21:17. > :21:20.is a Lake District and that is not secret but this is about going off
:21:21. > :21:24.the beaten path... Those Little Mix and crannies that many people do not
:21:25. > :21:28.know about and you end up at the top and you could say that spectacular
:21:29. > :21:34.view. I was pretending I was enjoying that. But I was actually
:21:35. > :21:44.thinking, can I get down! You do not like heights! This is you, halfway
:21:45. > :21:51.up the mountain. Have a look... Keep breathing. We have got you, you are
:21:52. > :22:06.safe. Do not worry. Can you see where you want to go? Up! Oh, no! I
:22:07. > :22:13.have got you, don't worry. No, no! Have a little rest. I am going to. I
:22:14. > :22:22.cannot even rest, I have got myself into ethical. -- into a nickel. Look
:22:23. > :22:32.at that language. I was like Frank Spencer! That looks like hard work
:22:33. > :22:38.as well. Apart from facing your own mortality halfway up... This is a
:22:39. > :22:41.good gig, this show? To get paid at the end of the month after doing
:22:42. > :22:45.that because you travel around and see beautiful places and I was
:22:46. > :22:49.laughing, I went to the production meeting saying I don't like heights
:22:50. > :22:56.are going underground and I did caves and I also did that. In the
:22:57. > :23:02.production meeting, did they say, Chris it would be great... TV
:23:03. > :23:10.people! It is just like a small hill. This is made by the same
:23:11. > :23:17.people who did Countryfile. Yes, Countryfile is fantastic escapism.
:23:18. > :23:21.But the said to the viewers, we will go to certain parts of the country,
:23:22. > :23:26.is any place that you feel is very special to you, unique, but we may
:23:27. > :23:31.not have heard about and this series has come about. Not just beautiful
:23:32. > :23:37.places, it might be like in Kent, there is a disused factory, one mile
:23:38. > :23:41.underground, and Rochester, built during the Second World War and we
:23:42. > :23:47.went down with torches and they still have the 1940s signs and
:23:48. > :23:52.fittings and the benches were they would sit during air raids. Graffiti
:23:53. > :23:57.of Adolf Hitler. Cartoons and little shapes. My goodness, thousands of
:23:58. > :24:02.people were down here, building planes while they were being bombed
:24:03. > :24:10.and you think, that is a great secret I want to tell people about.
:24:11. > :24:21.We have to chat about Strictly! Where is the music? What year was
:24:22. > :24:35.this? 2009. One year after year. After May? I came third. Booming! He
:24:36. > :24:42.is enjoying that too much! It is great fun. The memories he must
:24:43. > :24:46.have... What is not to enjoy? Beautiful person, Ola, trying to
:24:47. > :24:52.make it a better dancer, meeting new people. I was saying earlier,
:24:53. > :24:56.Martina Hingis was in my year, the world number one, multimillionaire,
:24:57. > :25:02.one of the most accessible tennis players and I bumped into her in
:25:03. > :25:08.Battersea on eight bus and was talking about the Viennese waltz.
:25:09. > :25:15.What am I doing? If you see previous contestants, any year, you just go,
:25:16. > :25:20.you know... Your Charleston was one of my favourite dancers of all time.
:25:21. > :25:29.You did that so well. Thank you very much. Are you still a fan? Have to
:25:30. > :25:33.say, you were incredible, but the standard right now, it is
:25:34. > :25:38.ridiculous, how do you think you would do if you entered right now? I
:25:39. > :25:43.would enjoy the week! Our Europe was, I would say it was quite weak,
:25:44. > :25:47.there was no experience and we were going on the same journey together
:25:48. > :25:53.and it was great fun so we were all bad. But you switch on and you can
:25:54. > :25:59.see, they obviously have enormous talent and you think, think goodness
:26:00. > :26:07.I am not on this year. But did win it. And it is such hard work.
:26:08. > :26:09.Secret Britain starts tonight on BBC One at 9pm.
:26:10. > :26:15.Now it's time for the biggest decision of the day.
:26:16. > :26:26.Now, we wanted to tell you about this show on Monday,
:26:27. > :26:32.Channel 4 at 11.35pm, the new series of The Island With
