Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,800
JOHNNY: No, it's happened again.
2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,760
Bev!
3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,760
NARRATOR: This time,
holiday memories...
4
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,360
I snogged a woman and she was 70,
if she was a day.
5
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,320
Oh, that's so wrong!
6
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,600
...misspent youth...
7
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,200
I'd take up smoking again
and stand there in a kimono.
8
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,440
(LAUGHS)Just looking out the window
going, "Morning, Blackpool."
9
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,960
...and big boys' toys...
10
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,680
Ooh, I want that joystick!
11
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,400
To millions, Johnny Vegas is known
12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,760
as an award-winning
stand-up comedian...
13
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,480
Good evening, Benidorm!(CHEERING)
...much-loved actor...
14
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,360
I've got no range,
but distinctive is what I do.
15
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:41,840
...and celebrated artist.
16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,760
But he's also a collector
of vintage. The odd...
17
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,440
This was once the pilot
of a flying badger.
18
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,120
...and the extraordinary.
19
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,240
Why I bought this and what
I paid for it, I'm takin' the fifth.
20
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:58,680
Now, after years of dreaming,
21
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,600
he's turning his hobby
into a business...
22
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,520
Oh, wow, it's massive!
23
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,680
...by opening his very own
vintage and collectibles shop.
24
00:01:07,320 --> 00:01:08,920
Oh, now it feels real.
25
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,920
So with the help of lifelong friend
and assistant, Bev...Well done.
26
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,080
...he's finally parting
with some of his collection.
27
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,560
I'm really attached to it.
And hitting the road...
28
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,960
God, we look like swingers!(LAUGHS)
29
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,680
...in search of hidden treasures
to stock the shop.
30
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,400
(GASPS)
31
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,120
Buying low...30 quid!
32
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,000
No, not 65. Just go to 70.
33
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,840
(LAUGHS) Are there any other
monstrosities you've purchased?
34
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,560
...in the hopes of selling high.
200 quid.
35
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,480
Thank you.Deal done. I like it.
36
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,240
But as a first-time dealer...
37
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,880
has Johnny got what it takes...
38
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:46,840
Auctions are not a good place
for Johnny.
39
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,240
I've spent double the budget.
You don't trust me, do you?No.
40
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,840
It's been a tough week.
41
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,760
...to turn his lifelong passion...
42
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,000
Get in! There you go, buddy.
There we go.
43
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,680
...into the business of his dreams?
44
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,680
(WHISPERS) I do know what I'm doing!
45
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,840
I hope my favourite plane
is still here.
46
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:18,040
What's your favourite plane?
The one with the black and white striped nose.
47
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,440
I don't know what it's called.
Just a plane. I like the colours. I like the style of it.
48
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,840
I don't know what it does,
what it was used for, but I like that one.
49
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:28,560
Will you just stop bombarding me
with technical details?
50
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:30,240
(LAUGHS)
51
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,600
Today, Johnny and Bev are on
their way to the Newark Air Museum in Nottinghamshire.
52
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,320
They've been invited by Johnny's
old friend and museum curator
53
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,720
Kevin Graham
to investigate a vintage aeroplane
54
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,160
that could be of
some value to his shop.
55
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,960
KEVIN: Yeah, Johnny's been here
a couple of times. He's like a kid in a sweet shop
56
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,040
when he comes here, he loves it.
57
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,800
If he's interested, he can have
a look and I can offload and make some space.
58
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,800
It's a Canberra PR.7,
ready for scrapping.
59
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,960
Oh.It's been beyond saving
for many years.
60
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,800
Told the owners to remove it from
the museum 'cause of its state, they immediately donated it to us.
61
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,760
I'm not adverse to puttin'
some stuff in the shop that's repurposed.
62
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,320
Okay.Basically, we'll see
what's available on the plane...Yeah.
63
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,400
...that hasn't already been claimed.
64
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,240
There might be a joystick
that takes me eye.
65
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,840
Small parts and joysticks.
66
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,600
Sounds like
my autobiography.(LAUGHS)
67
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,320
Meeting Johnny and Bev
at Newark to run the rule
68
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,280
over this plane
is Johnny's old friend Stu.
69
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,360
With 17 years' experience
as an aviation engineer,
70
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,960
he's now an expert
at turning scrap planes into bespoke furniture.
71
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,360
So with aircraft, the key is history
and vintage.
72
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,040
Something old,
73
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,240
ex-military or civil,
that people recognise.
74
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,240
How historic is it,
and can people connect with it?
75
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,360
They're the key things to look for.
76
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,040
All right.
77
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,600
Group hug.
78
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,800
Hello, gents. As you were.
79
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,680
Hello, buddy.The man with the plan.
How are you doing?
80
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,520
Yeah, great. Great.
81
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,200
Kevin.How are you doing?
82
00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:30,880
They'll let anyone in these days.
83
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,320
Kev, I've not told him yet.
84
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:37,560
Shall we show him or tell him?
85
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,120
We'll show him.
All right, Go on, pick a plane, any plane.Ohh!
86
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,640
This is what we are...
87
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,320
disposing of.
88
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,480
That's mint. That's massive.
89
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,840
Capable of operating
at altitudes of 14,000 metres
90
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:04,200
and speeds of 900 kilometres
per hour over a range of 5,000 kilometres
91
00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:08,840
without needing to refuel,
the Canberra was the perfect reconnaissance plane.
92
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,760
Active since 1953,
it played a key role
93
00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:16,320
in intelligence gathering
throughout the Cold War
94
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,960
and in conflicts from the Suez
Crisis to the first Gulf War.
95
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,520
There's still two or three
that I know of still flying.
96
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,640
NASA fly these now.
97
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,240
They're the only ones
in the world that are flying.Why?
98
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:35,280
I don't mean why, like, how come?
Because they were so good and so ahead of their time.
99
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,400
Canberra's are... the RAF flew these
'til the early 2000s
100
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,360
and they had... The Eurofighter
was in development and flying,
101
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,640
but they still flew these
'cos they were so good.
102
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,000
There's a cult following for these.
There's a massive provenance for them.Yeah.
103
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,080
But for this Canberra PR.7,
the war is definitely over.
104
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,000
As you can see...
105
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,960
Oh, wow. Blimey.
That's why she's going.
106
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,120
It's seen better days.Yeah.
107
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,400
Before it's consigned
to the scrap heap,
108
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,880
can Johnny and Stu rescue some parts
to upcycle and preserve
109
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,080
as unusual items
to be sold in the shop?
110
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,080
Ohh!
111
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,000
Ohhh!
112
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,120
If nothing else,
113
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,560
could I have that?
114
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,000
Could I have this section for me?
115
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,480
Are you literally
going to cut it up? I'm going to cut it up. Yeah.
116
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,600
This is my thing now.
117
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,000
Graphics.
118
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,640
Decals, you know what I mean?
Stuff that hasn't been clipped. That's gorgeous.
119
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,400
I need...
120
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,880
stuff off this that can be
a pretty quick turnaround.Yeah.
121
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,760
Good to go. But I just love that.
I love that flag up there.
122
00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:01,320
I think that's got a little bit...
Well, we'll have a look on the other side,
123
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,680
see if that's in better nick.
Right, okay.
124
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:09,160
But the Canberra PR.7
isn't just beautiful on the outside,
125
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,400
it's inner workings can cause
a particular reaction in men of a certain age.
126
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,000
(EXCITEDLY) Ohhh...
127
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,040
Throttle reverse,
that section there!
128
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,880
With a whole host of parts,
great and small,
129
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,800
that could potentially be
converted into collectibles.
130
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,480
We could save that.
131
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,680
But I'm just blinded by bits
of brilliant little objects.
132
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,400
Has it got... Please tell me.
133
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,360
Please tell me.
Oh, I want that joystick!
134
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,360
That's not a joystick.
It is not a computer.
135
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,160
Well, what is it?
That's your control column.
136
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,040
Yeah, it's a joystick.
137
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,240
(GASP) Look at that.
138
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,520
You're literally just cutting
bits of plane out, or I am...
139
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,880
Yeah...and straightening them up
and making them presentable.
140
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:06,200
There's not a lot of overheads,
and you could charge a decent amount for some of that.Okay.
141
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,400
So we need to capitalise
as much as we can off it.
142
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,320
But I don't see as capitalising.
I see it as preserving.
143
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:17,320
If we're getting it all for now,
or we can make a donation from the sale of them.
144
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,360
There's wheels, there's tables,
all the parts with the decals on.
145
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,040
All of this is material
that can be used quickly.
146
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:30,560
Little things. Little trinkets
that people could have and he could sell in his shop.
147
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,600
This is mega, mega, mega.
148
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:38,400
So the plan is preservation.
149
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,240
Yeah.Just historical preservation.
150
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,520
We'll sell it. Donate
some of the money back to here.
151
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,600
We're just... We're just
saving it for somebody...
152
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,640
put it on the shelf,
or have it in the house.
153
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,680
Yeah.Admire it,
it's their talking point.
154
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:59,160
I'd say something like this is what
made British aviation as good as it is.
155
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,760
This, Concorde, the Vulcan,
the Lightning, nailed on.
156
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,720
They made British aviation
as good as it is.
157
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,720
Well, then it'll be a privilege,
won't it? Preserve it, share it.
158
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,400
I'm proud when we get to...
159
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,240
rescue pieces like this
and it's got to go.
160
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,360
Anything we do,
anything we take off this plane
161
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:26,600
is a positive, carries it forward,
helps the museum, helps us
162
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:29,240
and Stu's talking quick turnaround.
163
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,400
So it's all feasible.
164
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,120
Little goldmine, a little morally
165
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,760
in-corrupted gold mine.
166
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,000
Makes me proud to be British.
167
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,560
Now, is it all right
to call that a joystick?
168
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,520
No, it's a control column.
169
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,800
Just get your geek on, you two.
I did tell him. I did tell him.
170
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,200
2
Forty quid for the pair. And a picture? Yeah, fine.
171
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,680
If 40 swings it, I'll do it for 40,
but I won't go any lower than that.
172
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:22,640
Back at Johnny Vegas'
pop-up collectibles and antique shop, business is brisk,
173
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,200
with small items
flying off the shelves.
174
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,600
So the shop is...
I have empty shelves.
175
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:31,440
I'm going out on a buying trip now.
176
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,720
I've got to bear in mind,
I don't want stock sitting around.
177
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,520
Buy with the same passion
but buy smart.
178
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,960
Keep small, buy stuff
you know you can sell.
179
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,160
And on the search for those
small items, Johnny and Bev
180
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,200
are making a shopping pilgrimage
to the Vegas of the North.
181
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:53,880
Blackpool!
182
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,440
Today they are heading
to The Regent.
183
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:02,280
Still active as a cinema,
this 1920s listed building
184
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,360
is also now home
to three floors of antiques
185
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,200
populated by
over 50 different dealers.
186
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,720
Overseeing proceedings
is Carole Moran.
187
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,480
There is always a deal
to be made here at The Regent.
188
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,280
It is a total mismatch
of absolutely everything.
189
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,960
Antiques, collectibles,
vintage, retro.
190
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,840
With so much choice available,
this day out by the seaside
191
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,960
is not just a shopping opportunity.
192
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920
It's a trip down memory lane.
193
00:11:33,560 --> 00:11:37,960
I do. I get proper flashbacks here.
Every other week,
194
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,960
I'd do a coach trip to Blackpool
and we'd go to t'Palace.
195
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,520
It was the best place
ever, it had three dance floors.
196
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,200
You organised that?
197
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,000
If you could dance,
if you was a mover and a shaker.
198
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,320
Was you down there? (LAUGHS)
199
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,160
I was upstairs,
there was stag and hens,
200
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,320
sort of worse for wear.
You were up there.
201
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,720
It's in me book.(LAUGHS)
202
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,640
I snogged a woman, she was 70,
if she was a day.
203
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,040
She took a shine to me.
204
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,720
And the worst thing, she said,
205
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,560
"You remind me of one of me sons."
206
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,560
Oh, that's so wrong.
207
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,160
I know.Oh, God.
208
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,800
Oh, my word. Oh, my word.
209
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,480
(GASPS)
210
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,480
What's up?
211
00:12:23,560 --> 00:12:27,320
I'd move in that.
You could what?I'd live in that. You would, wouldn't you?
212
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,520
I'd take up smoking again
and stand there in a kimono,
213
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,840
just looking out the window going,
214
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,520
"Morning, Blackpool."
215
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,000
Hello. Is it Carol?Oh, hiya, Carol.
216
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,560
How you doing?How you doing?
217
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,960
This is fabulous.
It is. It's an amazing place.
218
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:53,080
Honestly, I think just
looking around, I think you've reinvented the word eclectic.
219
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:54,800
(BEV AND CAROL LAUGH)
220
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,880
If you can't find something
in here...That's it.
221
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,240
...your soul has already
departed your body.
222
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,920
(BOTH LAUGH)
223
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,960
In this den of delights,
finding low-priced,
224
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:10,840
easy to sell items, known
in the trade as smalls, will be far from easy.
225
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,520
Oh, God, there's too much.
226
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,200
This is...
227
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,720
That's not to say it won't be fun.
228
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,560
Bev.Yeah?
229
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,240
(GASP) God, your mom
would have loved this place.
230
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,280
Look at these.Yes, she would.
231
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,840
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
232
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,880
Yeah, he's gonna love having
a mooch in here for sure.
233
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,680
So it'll be interesting to see what
he comes back with at the end of the day.
234
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,360
Ohh!
235
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,240
Oh, that's horrible.
236
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:42,920
That's beautifully horrible.
237
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,040
See, what I love coming to
a place like this is it just...
238
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,880
It's like it lets your ADHD
off the leash.
239
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,400
And with Johnny off the leash,
things are about to get random.
240
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,720
(SIGHS)
241
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,400
That's a brilliant title, isn't it?
"Lake District Walks For Motorists."
242
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,040
(LAUGHING)
243
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,320
Out of my way!
244
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:17,360
That's got to come home with me.
245
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,560
Ohh!
246
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,600
Oh, this place.
Can I just live here?
247
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,560
Oh, fabulous.
248
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:35,560
God.
249
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,160
For generations of holidaymakers,
Blackpool was the home of holiday romance.
250
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:41,840
What's in here now?
251
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,560
To which Johnny Vegas has just
discovered a suitable soundtrack.
252
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,600
I think...
253
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,160
maybe it's me,
but in terms o
254
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,160
erm, this should be a request,
not a demand.
255
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,840
(LAUGHS)
256
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,520
The track after that is
Am I Wasting my Time?
257
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,200
I'm not making this up.
258
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:13,960
Wowzer.
259
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,320
And from old-school romance,
Johnny's next find
260
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,920
is a love letter
to the beautiful game.
261
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,600
Oh, this could be nice.
262
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,760
Fifteen quid in the graphics alone.
263
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,560
I think I'm more suited for ballet.
264
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,280
Red versus White at the...
It's complete.
265
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,320
Oh, I like this.
266
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,160
Yep, that is coming with.
267
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,280
It's 15 quid.
I mean, there are times...
268
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,760
I'd just take that out
and frame that.
269
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,640
Honestly, I would. I like that.
270
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,600
But honestly, I'd...
I'd had that point of going,
271
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,000
I think I've seen too much but...
272
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,520
I'm looking at vintage cards.
273
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,880
Some of them been written in,
some of them haven't.
274
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,280
I think they're absolutely adorable.
275
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,120
Some are three quid, some are
four quid, some are two quid, some are one quid.
276
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,600
I literally would love to say,
277
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,840
"Can I hand-pick a bundle
of maybe 100?"
278
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,160
And ask what price
would be acceptable for that.
279
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,760
I'd love to give them to people.
280
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,040
I'd love the romance of
if they get posted somewhere,
281
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:39,360
great. If they get written in,
great, it's not marketing.
282
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,240
It's just a lovely,
lovely way to go,
283
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,080
"Thank you for coming in the shop."
284
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,720
With Johnny in his happy place,
285
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,880
the discovery of a doll's
outfit knitting pattern
286
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,480
triggers a long-buried
Vegas family trauma.
287
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,280
That I just...
288
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,120
It reminds me of when I came home
with my first perm.
289
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,520
It rocked the family
to its very core.
290
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,880
From postcards to perms,
the eclectic Regent continues to deliver for Johnny.
291
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,960
Yep. Be-de-boo-boo.
292
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,560
Vintage, West German,
ceramic brown colour plant pot.
293
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,560
Having that... have a bit of that.
I like it. Yeah.
294
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,520
Now watch me drop it.
295
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,680
(CRASH)Shit, it happened again.
296
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,320
It's two quid I'll never see back.
297
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,520
Sorry.
298
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,760
Bev.
299
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,680
Bev.
300
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,920
Got some of these.
I love Elvis.
301
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,440
Bev, that's my,
"I broke something," call Bev!
302
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:59,840
With Johnny already two pounds down
on the day and having not even made a purchase,
303
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:04,200
the last thing he needs is
something pricey catching his eye.
304
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,600
Oh, my God.I know!
Absolutely stunning.
305
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,800
They're 600 quid, though.
Overpriced, but they're lovely.
306
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,520
But they're stunning, aren't they?
307
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,200
So much stuff in here.I know.
308
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,880
Oh, my God.
309
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,680
2
At The Regent antique and auction centre in Blackpool,
310
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:31,320
Johnny Vegas is
in buyers' seventh heaven...
311
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,120
Oh, there's good stuff.
312
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,440
There's good stuff everywhere.
313
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,480
...discovering a treasure trove
of seaside specials.
314
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,480
I'm not making fun.
I like that.
315
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,680
But for some reason
they've signed it, "Bingo."
316
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,680
I think what I'm going to have to do
317
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,520
genuinely is just try
and focus on smalls for today.
318
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,560
Get some pre-sales in,
and if I do well, I'll come back
319
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,960
and look at
some of the ceramics again.
320
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,560
Having refocused,
Johnny is now ready
321
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,160
to cut his first deal of the day
with antique card dealer, Anne.
322
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,120
Anne? Come over.ANNE: Hi.
323
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,280
Hello.You've got some lovely stuff!
Thank you.
324
00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:17,360
Everywhere's got lovely stuff.
325
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:24,240
I am a genuine sucker
for... greeting cards.Yeah.
326
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,560
And especially
antique greeting cards.Okay.
327
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:29,720
So, they were sent to be kept.
328
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,720
The collecting of antique cards
is known as Ephemera Collecting,
329
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,120
with keen buyers always
on the lookout for items with personal
330
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,200
or unique historical connections.
331
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,960
They were treasured.Yeah.
Some of these will come from the trenches and stuff like that.
332
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,400
I had some sweetheart ones
just recently,
333
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:53,400
I sold them, that were sent by women
to their husbands in the war.
334
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,720
And they were gorgeous. Yeah.
335
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,400
Look at that!
336
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,320
"The old wish
from the old home." (GASPS).
337
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,880
I've a letter in me house
off me mum, framed.
338
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,720
And it says, "Never forget.
You can always come home."
339
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,400
Aww.It was a postal order.
340
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,360
So when you see something
like that and you go...Yeah.
341
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,080
We all send text messages these days
and there's nothing,
342
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,200
there's no sentiment in them.
Yeah, I know.
343
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,960
Well again, when was the last time
you re-read an email?
344
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,320
Yes, that's right, yes.
345
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,000
I've got to ask you.
346
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:26,840
These are kind of priced...
347
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,240
per item.Yeah.To go.
348
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,400
How many cards could you
let go today?
349
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,840
And if you did, at what price do you
think you could do it as, er...
350
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,040
Obviously, I can, yeah,
work with you, um... ...speaks to me. But I want to...
351
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,160
What would you look at per card,
maybe? And we can go from there.
352
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,480
I'd say for 50, if I gave you...
353
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,160
you're gonna hate me.
354
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,200
No, go on.20 quid.
355
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,080
Thirty quid, tops.
356
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,760
Yeah. Yeah, I'll do that.
357
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,440
Really?Yeah.
358
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,440
I'll come back and go,
"How much for 200?"
359
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,120
(LAUGHS)
360
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,760
Oh, they're fabulous.
361
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:14,040
Is this just a jigsaw puzzle?
362
00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:18,560
Yes, it's a game.It's a game?
It's a 1950s game. You can take it out of the bag if you want.
363
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,680
What have you got on it?
I've got 10 on it but I can do it for less.
364
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,000
What would you say?I'd say 10.
365
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,160
You've done me a good deal
on the cards.Okay.
366
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,440
That was just a last-minute...Yeah.
367
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,640
Hoo Zoo? I can't wait to play this.
368
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,520
I love board games
where it ends with a tiger...
369
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,440
(LAUGHS) Yeah....finding its kill.
370
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,120
Hoo Zoo.
371
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,040
And it's not only Johnny
who's been hunting down bargains.
372
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:52,040
I've bought a ring.
I've bought a vintage silk scarf.
373
00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:55,440
I've bought a disco ball
for my camper van.
374
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,960
I bought a hip flask.
I bought some Elvis fridge magnets.
375
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,760
I've had a brilliant day out.
376
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,400
But can Johnny be as decisive?
377
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,440
Carole wants to lock up
and I don't want to leave. I just want to keep walking round.
378
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,760
I wanna keep picking up objects.
I just want to keep looking at
379
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:21,000
what every individual trader
has got. It's great.
380
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,240
And with only the greeting cards
and a board game in the bag,
381
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:30,560
before closing time, Johnny must
cut a deal with Carole to make today's visit worthwhile.
382
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,120
And I don't know what to do on this
because the prices are already,
383
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,960
if I'm really honest,
are really good.Yeah.
384
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,440
So I don't know what room
you've got. I'm basically,
385
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,680
the more I save, the more
smalls I can buy.
386
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,920
We have a discretionary
10% discount.
387
00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:49,360
Yeah, 10% off would be...Sorted.
388
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,920
Er...
389
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,440
With a 10% discount in the bag,
390
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,040
Johnny can now fill his boots
with some proper Blackpool bargains.
391
00:22:59,120 --> 00:23:00,840
That, then?Yeah.
392
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,840
It's nice. I like it.
393
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,400
This type of mid-century
West German pot,
394
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:11,000
with its distinctive lava glaze,
has had a recent resurgence
395
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,600
on the collectors' market,
with pristine ones especially holding their value.
396
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,880
The graphics are fantastic.
397
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,200
The graphics were painted by someone
who's never played football in their life.Hm, yeah.
398
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,160
"A Cup final every day!"
399
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:30,040
This 1960s game was manufactured
in Glamorgan in Wales
400
00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:33,000
and has become
quite a collectible toy.
401
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,920
# Do-do-be-do-boo #
402
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:39,880
Found some more stuff.
403
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,640
Can we discuss...
Great collection of stuff.
404
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:48,440
This, I'm just taking that
out of circulation so nobody's gonna buy it.
405
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,520
Hailing from Liverpool while
The Beatles were still in school,
406
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,640
Russ Hamilton was climbing
the charts in both the UK and the US
407
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,360
with We Will Make Love.
408
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,840
Er, "Lake District Walks
for Motorists," I just love.
409
00:24:06,120 --> 00:24:07,720
At just two pounds,
410
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,760
Johnny's hoping that this purchase
will pay for itself in laughs alone.
411
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,080
Today was absolutely magnificent.
412
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:20,960
It's great. Got wonderful smalls
and some larges at small prices.
413
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,000
And the stuff we've got
will definitely work on behalf of the shop.
414
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,360
We maintain some credibility
415
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:33,200
and we have got that little bit
of sort of the quirky.
416
00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:36,320
Never a bad day in Blackpool.
417
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,200
Ooh, I didn't pay you!
I broke something round there.
418
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:49,340
Another day, another dollar
says the shopkeeper.
419
00:24:51,140 --> 00:24:56,140
Alright there, Gordon Gekko.
I'm enjoying... I know, yeah. Go get him! Sell, sell, sell.
420
00:24:59,260 --> 00:25:02,180
Do you know what
I like with the shop now?Yeah.
421
00:25:02,260 --> 00:25:04,180
I have me little bit of,
422
00:25:04,820 --> 00:25:07,500
"what am I not doing right?"
But I don't beat myself up.
423
00:25:10,660 --> 00:25:13,220
It's a positive way
of the ADHD going,
424
00:25:13,300 --> 00:25:16,740
"think about that shelf,
think about this, let's do that, let's move that."
425
00:25:16,820 --> 00:25:20,420
That little bit,
it's like Open All Hours.(LAUGHING) Yeah, I was gonna say that!
426
00:25:20,500 --> 00:25:24,140
When you're setting up
and you're going, "I can process me thoughts today".
427
00:25:24,220 --> 00:25:28,860
And then the minute
the doors open, you just go... the selling bit's bliss.
428
00:25:30,500 --> 00:25:33,260
But it's not all domestic bliss
at Vintage Vegas.
429
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,740
This is quite a random shop...
It's not.
430
00:25:36,820 --> 00:25:40,580
The graphics are brilliant.
The box is brilliant. That will appeal to...
431
00:25:42,980 --> 00:25:46,700
Hunters.
...a toy guy. I just wish it was complete. I wish I'd checked.
432
00:25:47,820 --> 00:25:50,860
How much did you pay for it?
Doesn't matter. It says, "Hoo Zoo."
433
00:25:52,460 --> 00:25:55,860
What bloody mindset were you in
in Blackpool, buying all of this?
434
00:25:55,940 --> 00:25:57,660
Because it's... Visually...
435
00:25:59,500 --> 00:26:01,180
I'll go and get Dave.
436
00:26:04,580 --> 00:26:08,860
Basically, smalls allow you to keep
the space going.
437
00:26:08,940 --> 00:26:11,820
Normally, the large items tend to
go to dealers.
438
00:26:11,900 --> 00:26:16,820
But in the interim,
whilst you're ticking over, again, you're not curating a museum,
439
00:26:16,900 --> 00:26:19,540
so the smalls, people come in,
they can walk away.
440
00:26:19,620 --> 00:26:21,220
And they're taking home a story.
441
00:26:23,340 --> 00:26:26,220
Five minutes' chat with someone
and I can shift all this.
442
00:26:27,420 --> 00:26:32,620
Once they understand where
the irony, the charm, the beauty of it lies.
443
00:26:33,860 --> 00:26:37,420
I'll enjoy selling this stuff.
I'll enjoy proving Bev wrong.
444
00:26:38,340 --> 00:26:40,300
And helping Johnny prove Bev wrong
445
00:26:40,380 --> 00:26:43,620
and price up the Blackpool haul
is dealer friend Dave.
446
00:26:44,500 --> 00:26:46,540
Hiya, rocker.
Hey, how we doing?
447
00:26:46,620 --> 00:26:49,100
You've been buying, haven't you?
I've been buying.
448
00:26:49,180 --> 00:26:52,300
I've been buying but, like,
I haven't bought big.
449
00:26:52,380 --> 00:26:55,860
The little bits
I've bought, you know what? They're all just making me laugh.
450
00:26:55,940 --> 00:26:57,820
Bev can't get her head round them.
451
00:26:58,820 --> 00:27:02,140
Save your favourite till last
because last time you did your best first.
452
00:27:02,780 --> 00:27:06,340
So do your best last.
Honestly, there's nothing.
453
00:27:06,420 --> 00:27:09,940
Or do you just love it all?
I'll tell you, I'll give you my most sensible first
454
00:27:10,020 --> 00:27:13,660
and it's at this end and it's boxed.
455
00:27:13,740 --> 00:27:16,820
It's good to go.
Oh, I'm loving it already.
456
00:27:16,900 --> 00:27:19,340
Tabletop soccer.
The fact that it's in the box.
457
00:27:19,420 --> 00:27:21,740
Apart from the ball inside,
this is the real deal.
458
00:27:21,820 --> 00:27:23,420
That is the real deal.
459
00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:26,580
It's the box, again,
that does it for me.
460
00:27:26,660 --> 00:27:28,580
And the thing is, what you imagine,
461
00:27:28,660 --> 00:27:31,660
that's the first thing
that puts the smile on the face.
462
00:27:31,740 --> 00:27:35,060
I'll ask you this time,
what would you comfortably put on that in the shop?
463
00:27:35,140 --> 00:27:38,660
'Cos I know what...45, 45.
I'd go more.
464
00:27:38,740 --> 00:27:40,780
Really?I would've
comfortably put...
465
00:27:40,860 --> 00:27:44,620
to give you some wiggle room,
you know, 55, 65 quid on that.
466
00:27:50,140 --> 00:27:51,980
The vase.
467
00:27:52,060 --> 00:27:54,900
Not the most stunning example...
468
00:27:56,300 --> 00:27:58,300
but 12 quid and it's West German.
469
00:27:58,380 --> 00:28:00,020
It's of that era.
470
00:28:03,300 --> 00:28:05,900
They actually...
they gave me a discount.
471
00:28:06,540 --> 00:28:09,220
Yeah, of course.
We've been looking for a dog bowl outside
472
00:28:09,300 --> 00:28:10,900
for biscuits and stuff.Absolutely.
473
00:28:10,980 --> 00:28:12,580
That's what that's now become.
474
00:28:12,660 --> 00:28:14,460
Now I've seen that chip.
475
00:28:14,540 --> 00:28:17,180
You know when you go,
"Yeah, it's dog biscuits."Yeah.
476
00:28:17,260 --> 00:28:19,220
(BLEEP)
477
00:28:20,260 --> 00:28:24,220
Unfortunately, having bought it
without seeing it was damaged,
478
00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:27,660
Johnny's lost any hope of it
making a profit.
479
00:28:27,740 --> 00:28:31,220
Right. "Lake District Walks
For Motorists."
480
00:28:31,300 --> 00:28:32,900
(LAUGHS)
481
00:28:34,860 --> 00:28:36,700
If you can't see the irony in that.
482
00:28:37,820 --> 00:28:39,460
It's worth it just for that, innit?
483
00:28:44,500 --> 00:28:47,820
Again, bought it on graphics.
Hoo Zoo.
484
00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:52,620
Hoo Zoo?
The game that shows you how life really is in the wild.
485
00:28:52,700 --> 00:28:55,540
Yeah.Me and Bev
tried to play it earlier, and the next thing
486
00:28:55,620 --> 00:28:57,700
she'd sunk her teeth
into me arm.Yeah.
487
00:28:59,460 --> 00:29:01,100
I won't see much more on it.
488
00:29:01,180 --> 00:29:06,780
I just...You're not gonna get
a lot on it. 15, maybe 20 at absolute push.Yeah. No, 15.
489
00:29:11,820 --> 00:29:13,420
Turn it round, go on.Go on.
490
00:29:14,540 --> 00:29:17,460
"We will..." Oh, my God.(LAUGHS)
491
00:29:17,540 --> 00:29:20,380
"We Will Make Love."
Not "Please Can We?".
492
00:29:20,460 --> 00:29:23,140
"We Will Make Love."
"We Will Make Love."
493
00:29:23,220 --> 00:29:25,380
Believe it or not,
it was only four quid.
494
00:29:25,460 --> 00:29:27,580
Yeah, that don't surprise me
but it's worth it.
495
00:29:27,660 --> 00:29:30,780
I think it's a tenner for a giggle.
It's worth it for the giggle.
496
00:29:35,820 --> 00:29:37,820
And these, I'm a sucker for them.
497
00:29:37,900 --> 00:29:42,500
I handwrite a lot of letters anyway,
but they're just vintage postcards.
498
00:29:42,580 --> 00:29:45,340
Some are written on,
some aren't, and I'm thinking,
499
00:29:46,340 --> 00:29:50,100
I might just give them out like,
almost like a receipt with every purchase.
500
00:29:50,180 --> 00:29:52,340
Some of these
are lovely, aren't they?Yeah.
501
00:29:54,100 --> 00:29:55,740
All right, listen, cheers, Dave.
502
00:29:55,820 --> 00:29:57,540
No, thank you.As always, mate.
503
00:29:57,620 --> 00:30:00,460
No, anytime. Anytime.
Just give us a shout. Do me a favour.
504
00:30:00,540 --> 00:30:03,300
If you bump into Bev,
tell her, "He did right."
505
00:30:03,980 --> 00:30:07,260
I will.Okay.I think you have.
506
00:30:07,340 --> 00:30:09,260
Yes, I'm happy to do that.
507
00:30:09,340 --> 00:30:12,100
Her near-sightedness
will be my success.
508
00:30:12,180 --> 00:30:14,820
See you later, mate.Okay.
509
00:30:19,540 --> 00:30:21,940
Since the opening of Vint
510
00:30:22,020 --> 00:30:28,140
one item in particular has been
the centre of attention for kids and big kids alike,
511
00:30:29,420 --> 00:30:33,100
the customised and still working
Speed Racer.
512
00:30:34,700 --> 00:30:37,460
But is Johnny willing
to sell this prized item?
513
00:30:41,740 --> 00:30:43,340
You all right, fella?
514
00:30:45,700 --> 00:30:47,500
Oh, the ride.MAN: Yeah.
515
00:30:50,100 --> 00:30:54,900
Now then. There's a story
behind that because I've got to ask me son if I can sell it.
516
00:30:54,980 --> 00:30:57,100
Do you wanna have a go on it first?
517
00:30:57,180 --> 00:31:00,900
See how you find it.
The only thing is with it, there's no timer on it.
518
00:31:00,980 --> 00:31:05,660
So you'd literally... Once you'd put
your money in, it'll keep going.
519
00:31:05,740 --> 00:31:08,380
You need somebody with you
to turn it off at the wall.
520
00:31:09,380 --> 00:31:11,060
Give it a go. See how you feel.
521
00:31:21,100 --> 00:31:25,140
The guns either side
of the steering, er, they do work.
522
00:31:25,220 --> 00:31:26,820
The red ones.
523
00:31:30,140 --> 00:31:32,780
Well, we just switch it off
at the wall. (LAUGHS)
524
00:31:34,180 --> 00:31:37,340
You all right?
It's not easy to get off, is it?
525
00:31:39,420 --> 00:31:41,500
So did it make you queasy
or excited?
526
00:31:42,740 --> 00:31:44,420
Really?
527
00:31:44,500 --> 00:31:48,060
Ooh. You see, I haven't even...
I've not priced that up yet
528
00:31:48,140 --> 00:31:52,180
'cos I thought I'd just
have it in here for kicks, for kids to have a bit of fun on.
529
00:31:52,260 --> 00:31:57,900
But me and me son converted that
from a '70s spaceship ride.
530
00:31:57,980 --> 00:32:00,140
You've really caught me out now.
531
00:32:01,420 --> 00:32:05,180
Go away, right... No,
I don't mean go away like get out.
532
00:32:05,260 --> 00:32:08,500
Erm, have a think on a price for it
and let me ask me son.
533
00:32:08,580 --> 00:32:11,020
Yeah. Yeah.
Did you have a figure in mind?
534
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:12,700
No...
535
00:32:13,340 --> 00:32:16,020
All you need is to see off
one of your relatives...
536
00:32:16,100 --> 00:32:18,260
BOY: Okay....and they'll
leave you some money.
537
00:32:18,340 --> 00:32:20,500
Don't put ideas in his head.
(BOTH LAUGH)
538
00:32:21,380 --> 00:32:24,020
Nice to meet you.All right.
Cheers, pal. Cheers, brother.
539
00:32:24,100 --> 00:32:27,020
I'm glad... I'm made up you like it.
540
00:32:29,620 --> 00:32:31,220
He's not having it.
541
00:32:31,980 --> 00:32:33,580
Oh, my God.
542
00:32:47,700 --> 00:32:49,300
2
STU: Hello!
543
00:32:52,420 --> 00:32:54,180
Look at it.
I brought you some stuff.
544
00:32:54,260 --> 00:32:57,140
Come here, you.Last time
you saw this, it was on a plane.
545
00:32:57,220 --> 00:32:59,140
Oh! You all right?
546
00:33:00,540 --> 00:33:05,460
Having worked extra fast to convert
Johnny's haul of historic Canberra plane items,
547
00:33:05,540 --> 00:33:08,820
it's the day of delivery
by old friend Stu Abbott.
548
00:33:10,460 --> 00:33:13,260
That's really good.
I'm well happy with that.
549
00:33:15,540 --> 00:33:17,220
Set for the scrap heap,
550
00:33:17,300 --> 00:33:23,260
what was once a 20-metre long,
19-metre wide RAF Canberra PR.7
551
00:33:23,340 --> 00:33:25,340
has now been given a second life.
552
00:33:26,500 --> 00:33:29,220
The plane's gone now,
the plane has been scrapped.
553
00:33:29,300 --> 00:33:31,220
So this is it.
554
00:33:31,980 --> 00:33:35,500
What remains.This is the remains,
so we're like, we're preserving history now.
555
00:33:37,060 --> 00:33:39,180
But can you put a value on history?
556
00:33:39,260 --> 00:33:41,980
And will Stu's work
get Johnny's seal of approval?
557
00:33:43,220 --> 00:33:44,820
Oh, ho!
558
00:33:45,500 --> 00:33:47,100
Ahh!
559
00:33:48,420 --> 00:33:50,180
Coasters...Yes.Body...
560
00:33:51,020 --> 00:33:55,260
...casing with...The registration
number on, in the original paint.
561
00:33:55,340 --> 00:33:57,140
Nobody's doing these.
562
00:33:57,220 --> 00:33:58,860
They're nice, them as well.
563
00:33:58,940 --> 00:34:02,340
They're cheap wins
and I've done you ten lots.
564
00:34:02,980 --> 00:34:06,300
I'd sell them for about
25 quid a set.I'd say 40.
565
00:34:09,100 --> 00:34:12,540
Johnny has decided to split
any profits from these items
566
00:34:12,620 --> 00:34:16,580
three ways between
Newark Air Museum, Stu and himself.
567
00:34:18,580 --> 00:34:21,500
Think about what that is.
It's absolutely unique.
568
00:34:21,580 --> 00:34:23,780
It's a one-off.It's the identity
of that plane.
569
00:34:24,420 --> 00:34:27,940
That's had it since it was
first built, 'til it was scrapped.
570
00:34:29,620 --> 00:34:32,180
And it's absolutely original.
571
00:34:32,260 --> 00:34:35,220
All I've done to that
is clean it up and square it off
572
00:34:35,900 --> 00:34:39,020
and there's a hook on the back.
If you were selling out your shop...
573
00:34:39,100 --> 00:34:41,500
If that would go in my shop,
that'd be 250 quid.
574
00:34:46,780 --> 00:34:48,820
So, let's talk about the roundel.
575
00:34:48,900 --> 00:34:50,500
I'd love to keep it.
576
00:34:51,460 --> 00:34:53,700
How do you start pricing
something like that?
577
00:34:53,780 --> 00:34:56,620
It's difficult because
they don't come up.
578
00:34:56,700 --> 00:35:01,380
You don't get genuine bits of planes
with RAF roundels on
579
00:35:01,460 --> 00:35:04,660
because they all get scrapped
in the RAF or repainted.
580
00:35:05,700 --> 00:35:08,900
You'd want a minimum of 500 quid
for that, a minimum.
581
00:35:13,940 --> 00:35:17,340
So that's not it.
What do you mean? I made something else.
582
00:35:17,420 --> 00:35:19,100
For the final delivery,
583
00:35:19,180 --> 00:35:23,060
Stu is hoping to knock
Johnny's socks off with some reflected glory.
584
00:35:24,340 --> 00:35:26,100
Oh, God!
585
00:35:26,180 --> 00:35:29,340
But not just any mirror,
I made a mirror.
586
00:35:29,980 --> 00:35:31,700
Taking three days' work,
587
00:35:31,780 --> 00:35:34,780
this decorative mirror
with jet engine cowl surround
588
00:35:34,860 --> 00:35:38,700
has been made from
highly-polished metal taken from the plane's body.
589
00:35:39,580 --> 00:35:41,420
It doesn't work 'cause I look fat.
590
00:35:43,260 --> 00:35:45,260
You can see the rivets in it,
can't you?
591
00:35:46,060 --> 00:35:49,660
So that's been mirror polished.
'Cause if I was putting that in my shop,
592
00:35:49,740 --> 00:35:51,340
that'd start a thousand pounds.
593
00:35:56,380 --> 00:35:58,980
Let's get them home.
All right, let's do it.
594
00:35:59,060 --> 00:36:00,820
I don't think of it as selling them.
595
00:36:08,660 --> 00:36:12,100
I think every dealer feels like
a custodian of history.
596
00:36:12,900 --> 00:36:15,940
History passes through your hands.
When you're a dealer,
597
00:36:16,020 --> 00:36:20,660
or whether you're a collector,
history passes through your hands every day.
598
00:36:22,180 --> 00:36:26,580
Back in the present,
Johnny gets to work trying to sell his Blackpool haul
599
00:36:27,260 --> 00:36:31,140
along with the pieces he had
upcycled from the old RAF plane.
600
00:36:31,980 --> 00:36:36,660
For people who know their planes...
Yeah. ...it's a classic. It's a keeper.
601
00:36:37,940 --> 00:36:40,540
And the first sale of the day
is a vindication
602
00:36:40,620 --> 00:36:42,620
of Johnny's Blackpool
shopping spree.
603
00:36:44,660 --> 00:36:50,140
You have, and I say it all the time,
you have a good eye.(BOTH LAUGH)
604
00:36:50,860 --> 00:36:53,340
Isn't that the weirdest album?
605
00:36:53,420 --> 00:36:57,780
Some of the song titles are
a bit, erm...Are brilliant.Yeah.
606
00:36:57,860 --> 00:37:00,700
They're brilliant.Yeah.
They're wrong but they're brilliant.
607
00:37:00,780 --> 00:37:04,380
I honestly wanted to frame him
and just put him up at home.
608
00:37:05,220 --> 00:37:09,220
And then, you know, I had to remind
myself, going, I don't want to be single all me life.
609
00:37:09,980 --> 00:37:11,860
Oh, you'll have a laugh with this.
610
00:37:11,940 --> 00:37:13,620
We Will Make Love.
611
00:37:14,980 --> 00:37:16,580
Tenner.
612
00:37:16,660 --> 00:37:18,300
Sold.Thank you.
613
00:37:19,780 --> 00:37:24,620
And if this is going in
your vinyl collection, I'd put it at the back.(LAUGHS)
614
00:37:29,660 --> 00:37:32,220
I'm taking this win
and I'm going to enjoy it.
615
00:37:33,340 --> 00:37:35,020
Bev!Yes?
616
00:37:35,100 --> 00:37:37,220
Don't ever question me
on vinyl again.
617
00:37:37,300 --> 00:37:38,900
(LAUGHS)
618
00:37:42,100 --> 00:37:45,660
And the Blackpool buys
continue to attract attention.
619
00:37:46,220 --> 00:37:47,900
Now, then.MAN: Hiya, are you okay?
620
00:37:47,980 --> 00:37:49,660
I'm good. Who's this?
621
00:37:49,740 --> 00:37:52,020
This is me son,
and he wants to buy something.
622
00:37:53,020 --> 00:37:55,660
Well, then you're not his son.
You're my friend.
623
00:37:56,300 --> 00:37:57,900
What do you want to buy?
624
00:38:01,180 --> 00:38:03,940
Wow, that was... You came in
hard on that, didn't you?
625
00:38:04,020 --> 00:38:05,940
What's it out there for?
626
00:38:06,020 --> 00:38:07,620
Fifty.Fifty?
627
00:38:08,860 --> 00:38:10,540
(SIGHS) I'll tell you what.
628
00:38:10,620 --> 00:38:12,580
I did alright on it.
629
00:38:12,660 --> 00:38:14,580
Would you meet me at 40?
630
00:38:15,820 --> 00:38:18,860
40 quid and if you put that
online tomorrow you'd get 60.
631
00:38:20,180 --> 00:38:22,580
But I don't want you selling it.
(PEOPLE LAUGH)
632
00:38:22,660 --> 00:38:24,740
Are you going to keep it
and play with it?
633
00:38:24,820 --> 00:38:28,140
If it's 30 quid.Yeah.
Look at your dad with big wide eyes
634
00:38:28,220 --> 00:38:32,900
and say, "Dad, can I have
an extra fiver on my pocket money?
635
00:38:32,980 --> 00:38:35,660
"Because I really want
that football game."
636
00:38:35,740 --> 00:38:38,380
Go on. Ready?
One, two, three.
637
00:38:39,460 --> 00:38:41,060
Yes.Yeah!
638
00:38:43,260 --> 00:38:45,260
I love it when
a deal comes together.
639
00:38:45,340 --> 00:38:48,140
Forty quid.
You've done well on that.
640
00:38:49,340 --> 00:38:51,780
Bought purely on the appeal
of the box art,
641
00:38:52,380 --> 00:38:54,700
Johnny has more than doubled
his money with the sale
642
00:38:54,780 --> 00:38:56,860
of this vintage table football game.
643
00:38:57,820 --> 00:39:01,060
But can he shift the bigger
ticket items from the plane?
644
00:39:02,220 --> 00:39:05,420
Can you tell me a bit about this?
You have a good eye.
645
00:39:05,500 --> 00:39:09,500
I know my husband's
a big collector of World War II.
646
00:39:09,580 --> 00:39:13,260
We have Mary tins
and all those kind of things.
647
00:39:13,340 --> 00:39:15,060
So, what can you tell me?
648
00:39:15,140 --> 00:39:18,140
I can tell you it's a Canberra jet.
649
00:39:18,220 --> 00:39:21,300
So it's technically
it's kind of post-World War II.
650
00:39:21,380 --> 00:39:24,020
Right.Possibly the most
651
00:39:24,100 --> 00:39:27,540
successful jet that
the Air Force ever produced.
652
00:39:27,620 --> 00:39:30,140
NASA still use this plane.Oh.
653
00:39:30,220 --> 00:39:33,820
It's come from Newark Museum.
654
00:39:33,900 --> 00:39:38,820
Okay.The owner couldn't
afford to maintain it. They had to scrap it.
655
00:39:38,900 --> 00:39:40,820
So we've taken everything off it.
656
00:39:40,900 --> 00:39:45,460
We're doing a portion of the sale
is going back to Newark as a charity.Okay.
657
00:39:45,540 --> 00:39:48,140
But yeah. This is its call sign.
658
00:39:48,220 --> 00:39:50,020
It was cut off the plane like this.
659
00:39:50,100 --> 00:39:52,100
We've done nowt to it.
660
00:39:52,180 --> 00:39:56,460
It's a real part
of aeronautical history.
661
00:39:56,540 --> 00:39:58,220
So you're telling me it's one-off?
662
00:39:58,300 --> 00:40:04,220
It's beyond a one-off.
I'm telling you, it's a steal, 250.
663
00:40:05,540 --> 00:40:07,980
For a collector, this is good.
664
00:40:08,060 --> 00:40:10,220
Okay, I'll have it for 250.
665
00:40:10,300 --> 00:40:13,580
Yeah, you've got a deal.
And you've got a cracking... Honestly.
666
00:40:13,660 --> 00:40:17,140
I know lads who'll go mad for this.
They'll go mad at me for selling it.
667
00:40:17,220 --> 00:40:19,140
I got there first.
You did.
668
00:40:23,540 --> 00:40:27,500
Another piece of history has changed
hands at a really good price.
669
00:40:28,300 --> 00:40:30,380
Everyone's winning from this deal.
670
00:40:30,460 --> 00:40:33,620
I can give money back to Newark
and they're thrilled.
671
00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:36,100
Her husband will be made up
when he sees that.
672
00:40:36,740 --> 00:40:39,420
He has got something nobody else
in the country will have.
673
00:40:41,060 --> 00:40:42,820
How can you not be happy?
674
00:40:43,460 --> 00:40:46,780
Vintage Vegas - we are the gift
that keeps on giving.
675
00:40:51,820 --> 00:40:54,500
As another day at Vintage Vegas
comes to a close,
676
00:40:54,580 --> 00:40:56,700
a returning customer is back in town
677
00:40:56,780 --> 00:41:00,220
to test Johnny's resolve
on perhaps his most prized item,
678
00:41:01,220 --> 00:41:03,060
the customised Speed Racer.
679
00:41:05,420 --> 00:41:07,620
Hiya buddy.Hi.How's it going?
680
00:41:07,700 --> 00:41:09,340
Good.What can I do for you?
681
00:41:09,420 --> 00:41:11,380
You know the Speedster out there...
682
00:41:11,460 --> 00:41:13,220
(SIGHS)
683
00:41:13,300 --> 00:41:14,980
(LAUGHS)
684
00:41:15,060 --> 00:41:16,660
I do.
685
00:41:17,340 --> 00:41:18,940
What would be your best offer?
686
00:41:19,620 --> 00:41:22,940
I'd want, only because my son
worked so hard on it...
687
00:41:26,420 --> 00:41:31,220
I'd like 900 but there's never been
another one made.
688
00:41:31,300 --> 00:41:37,020
We spent two days masking up,
painting it, doing everything.
689
00:41:37,100 --> 00:41:43,300
That's a proper part of our history,
social history that, so I've gotta say 900.
690
00:41:51,300 --> 00:41:53,740
Okay.What, you will?Yeah.
691
00:41:55,260 --> 00:41:56,860
(ALL LAUGH)
692
00:41:57,900 --> 00:41:59,660
You'll pay 900 for it?Yeah.
693
00:42:01,540 --> 00:42:03,140
Are you...
694
00:42:04,060 --> 00:42:05,660
(SIGHS)
695
00:42:08,260 --> 00:42:09,940
Well done.Oh, my...
696
00:42:10,940 --> 00:42:14,100
You've got a Speeder Bike.
You've got the only Speeder Bike.
697
00:42:14,180 --> 00:42:16,500
It was made by Johnny Vegas
and his son.
698
00:42:18,260 --> 00:42:20,740
I swear to God, if it wasn't you,
I would not sell it.
699
00:42:21,700 --> 00:42:25,420
I've had dealers chasing me over it,
and I won't give it to dealers.
700
00:42:25,500 --> 00:42:28,580
You're going to keep it?Yeah.
You're going to enjoy it.Yeah.
701
00:42:28,660 --> 00:42:31,500
Take it, enjoy it. Well done.
702
00:42:31,580 --> 00:42:35,540
You've got yourself
an absolute bargain.
703
00:42:35,620 --> 00:42:37,220
Thanks.No.
704
00:42:38,100 --> 00:42:40,220
Thank you.That's amazing.
705
00:42:46,860 --> 00:42:49,380
It's the biggest wrench
of all the sales I've made.
706
00:42:50,260 --> 00:42:55,020
I've got more memories
tied up with that, and it's me and me son in a shed.
707
00:42:55,100 --> 00:42:58,820
I will miss that in way that I...
708
00:42:58,900 --> 00:43:03,420
honestly don't have
the vocabulary to express right now.
709
00:43:03,500 --> 00:43:07,100
I'll probably have a little bit
of a moment over that.
710
00:43:07,780 --> 00:43:11,980
But that young lad who's
took it with him, loves it.
711
00:43:13,540 --> 00:43:15,700
It was the right time to let go.
712
00:43:17,900 --> 00:43:21,180
It's not easy but it was
the right thing to do.
713
00:43:26,580 --> 00:43:30,420
We did really good on that.
It was a dad and lad thing.
