All language subtitles for Johnny Vegas s02e02.eng

Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho!

NARRATOR: This time, Johnny adds
to his mechanical toy collection.

I'm so glad we drove here.

He tries a new tactic
to make a deal.

I don't want the basket!
(WOMAN LAUGHS)

Vikki meets her worst nightmare.

(GROWLS LIKE CHEWBACCA)
(LAUGHTER)

And a last-minute offer
ends up being too big to handle.

Currently being cut
into three pieces.

This is an absolute disaster.
(LAUGHS)

I said good day, sir.
(LAUGHS)

Last year, after a lifetime
collecting antiques and curios...

Who doesn't want a marzipan
Indiana Jones?

The thirsty bear!
(LAUGHTER)

...actor and comedian Johnny Vegas
finally took the plunge...

Oh, it's happening again!

...and fulfilled his dream
of opening his own antiques and collectibles shop.

Vintage Vegas
is opening for business.

It proved a smash hit
with customers.

You'll pay 900 for it? In your face!

...and gave Johnny confidence
in his eye for a good buy

and his ability to sell
eclectic items.

I'm a dealer.

Get me!

Now, he and lifelong friend
and assistant Bev are back...

I knew we were coming home
with a badger.

...dreaming bigger...

Will it fit in the van?
This is an absolute disaster.

...and better...

(GASPS) Look at this!

...hoping business will boom

and the shop will go from pop-up
to permanent.

This time round,
I don't want it to finish when the cameras go home.(BLEATS)

With Johnny's girlfriend, Vikki,
joining the team...

You'll stretch the leather.
I'll stretch your leather in a minute.

...they're hitting the road
in search of new stock.

Hello, Mr Bond.

Hello, you creepy little chappie.

So can Johnny turn
from lifelong dreamer...

I'm a bit concerned opening today.

Got a price in mind.
Too low, mate.

...to full-time dealer...

That might be me naughty purchase.

You've got a deal.
He's so my boy.

...with his Little Shop of Antiques?

There we go!

Look at him,
he's back in the groove!

I'm trying to play it calm,
but I've just had a little wee. (DEALER LAUGHS)

(SIGN CREAKS)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Vintage Vegas is back
and open for business...

Hello! Welcome to
t'Little Shop of Antiques.

...and it's been a busy start
to Johnny's second year as a bona fide dealer.

I'll do it for 30.
That'll be amazing.

- Beautiful.
- Lovely.Thank you very much. - You've a good eye.

With his learnings from last year,
and knowing what appeals to customers,

Johnny's now created areas of the
shop for different types of items,

from easy-to-pick-up-and-buy smalls

to Clockwork Corner,
home to Thirsty Bear and his pals.

That is our corner of troubled toys.

Clockwork Corner
is gonna get busier and busier.

I should really focus on that.

You too, pal. See you now.
Bye.

A lot of empty spaces to fill.
But you know what?

You're really fortunate
when you absolutely love buying,

when you absolutely love dealing,
when you love getting up,

getting out the house of a morning

and going finding
the next best thing.

Johnny and Bev are taking
a long, winding and bumpy road...

Ooh! God, this is narrow.

Oh, this is a great road for you,
innit?(LAUGHS)

...a hundred miles west
to Caernarfon, Wales.

Go on, let's time it. How soon
before I... I put my hand down?

You do it to me.
Yeah, I know I do. Imaginary brake.

Already, straight out of the gate,

I've got to start bearing in mind
about smalls.

Walk-out items last time...
Yeah.

- ... did really well.
Yeah. - If we only sell smalls...

Oh, no, No. Yeah.
...and you sell things... Can't pay the shop rent.

- Yeah, it's not gonna
keep the lights on. - Yeah.

They're heading to
Blythe Farm Emporium,

which sells everything
from furniture

to bric-a-brac and vintage.

Johnny will be meeting dealer
Stephen Orford,

whose shops
he's been going to for years.

I have met Johnny before.

I've dealt with him
a couple of times.

He has bought some antiques
from me in the past.

So I think I know what to
direct him to, but that's not to say he's gonna like it.

He could quite ricochet
just anywhere, because Johnny does tend to ricochet.

I like him.

He's a proper dealer, isn't he?
He's second generation.

His dad, he was born with it.

He's grown up with it,
and he knows it inside out.

- Yeah, you can tell.
Yeah. - And he's just a good laugh.

- Yeah.
- He's a really good laugh.

Oh, we're here.

Blythe Farm. Here we go.
Ooh, Blythe Farm.

I'll go for a little mooch
on my own, then, and leave you to it.

Right, come on.

Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho!

I'd have bought them for me dad.

In the old days, instead of
a sharpener, you did the...

I want at least a third of my stock
to be 10-15 quid items.

People just want to walk away
and go, "I got that."

I'm... I'm wising up to it.

But when you're looking for
that anniversary gift...

I love you, too.

It doesn't exactly say,
"Hey, glad you made it over.

Welcome to the new pad."

(COUGHS WHEEZILY)

After a spot of solo browsing,

Johnny calls in Stephen
to strike some deals.

What would that be?

It's the mechanism
for tennis courts.

For stretching the net?
Yes, for the net.

So far on the buying trips,
I've been asking, I think,

twice as many questions
than I did last time.

First off, I was like,
I know what I like.

I know what I like.
And now you're going, "Tell me about that."

And learn how to value everything
that, er, crosses your path.

These are perfect
for walking-in customers.

American 1930s number plates.

- Are they original?
- They are real.(GASPS)

I'm guessing they'll be
out of my price range.

They are �25 each.

There is no movement on that,
Johnny, I can't.

I think there's,
there's wiggle room on that for me,

so 25 each is good on them.

Oh, I like that.

Er, �6.

Done.

This quick bit of horseplay

gets Johnny's buying off
to a gallop.

Hello, Mr Bond.

I fear the world is taken over
by metallic ducks.

Pew, pew!

That'll be 20 quid.
It is. It is.

These cast-iron fairground guns

were industrially made
in the post-war era.

They used compressed gas
stored under the stall counter to fire a pellet at the target,

often in the shape
of unsuspecting metal ducks.

Oh, there's too much here
to see at once, in't there?

They're good.
Fairground letters from Rhyl. Yeah, I like them.

Do you know what?

Come up with a price
for all the letters.

Here's me buying smalls.

Gimme a J! Gimme a V!

Gimme a good price.
(THEY LAUGH)

Here comes the good price.
They're �48.

But as a repeat customer,
they can be...

- If I take all of them.
Yes. - All of them.

And there are five.

A hundred and fifty. �30 each.

- In. In. In.
- In. - In like a slingshot.

Johnny has picked up
five of these fairground letters.

Originally from a fairground
in Rhyl, North Wales,

they predate modern neon lighting,

so have become popular
nostalgic collectibles.

Happy so far.
The day's already won, them letters.

And I could sense everybody going,
"Oh, so you came for smalls?"

And you go,
well, to me, that's small.

'Cause I'm obese.

Flush with the success
of his buys,

Johnny has ventured
into fellow dealer Sandra's shop.

Hey, I came here looking for smalls, okay?

Join the Navy.

They're nice, them.
I'm gonna look for something now just to sit 'em on.

Just to...
You can have the basket, 'cause it is included.

I know. I don't, I don't...

That's why I'm gonna ask you
for a bit of money off.

Yeah.(LAUGHS)

How much is she?

Ooh.

- There's a little bit of something
about her, in't there? - Yeah.

She looks like
she married a wrong 'un and now he's living under the patio.

(LAUGHS)

Time to make a deal.

Do you know what?
I'm just gonna give you 30 for that.

Are you? For Lucy Longlegs?
Yeah.

I'd love 25, but I'll give you 30.

Perfect. A deal. We're a deal.

- What, 25?
- No, 30.

(LAUGHS)

Known as a Looby Loo doll,

this vintage rag doll was inspired

by a character from 1950s
classic kids' TV show, Andy Pandy.

These... Would you do eight on it?

It's eight. I know they're,
I know they're only 12.

I know you're not asking
a king's ransom.

- With the basket.
- I'm gonna haveto go into therapy for that basket. - With the basket, �8.

Without the basket, nine.

No, I'll tell you what.
I'll give you �9 if you take the basket away.

- Ten. It's going up.
- Eight quid.

Come on, are we done?
We're done. A deal.

Do you know what? Fabulous.

I get the feeling
you really want the basket.

No.

You can have the basket.

Stop trying to push the basket!

You're better than this.
(LAUGHS)

I'm not having the basket!
All right?

Anyway, thanks for being so good
for dealing with.(LAUGHS)

You're very welcome.
I'll make sure the basket's in the box.

I don't want the basket!
(LAUGHS)

Bev makes a start packing the van.

Right, Lucy,
you're coming home with us.

Meanwhile, Johnny has picked up
a last-minute item

that'll take all his charm

to persuade Bev
to bring back to the shop.

(BLEATS)
It's not technically mine.

I wander in and I make friends.

It's what I do.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

At Dagfields antiques village
in Cheshire,

Bev's unloading the latest haul
for vintage Vegas.

Johnny's dream of running this
as a business for the long term

increasingly means
delegating the key roles,

like unboxing and pricing up.

At the moment, I'm just pricing up
all the stuff that Johnny bought

from, er, from Blythe Farm,

just basing on the prices
that Johnny's given to us,

and then he can amend them if he,
if he thinks, when he comes in.

These are very kitsch.

He wants those on at 12.

Matching pairs of
salt and pepper pots like these

are known as a cruet set.

The sailor couple date back
to the 1950s.

Known as kitsch characters,

they were very popular
and often mass produced in Japan.

Johnny really liked this doll.
Apparently, it was very collectible in the 60s.

So Lucy's going on at 50.

And then Dave said he'll pop in
and have a look at these signs

'cause he brings a lot of these
from America,

so he can let Johnny know
if they're authentic

and good for the price
he said to put them on at.

- 'Ey up, Bev.
Hey, Dave. - How are you?

- I'm all right, mate.
Lovely to see you. - And you.

He bought these. He's been told
that they are authentic and proper.

- And he paid 25 each.
- Has he?

- Oh.
- Mmm.

And we're looking at
putting them on at 40 each.

I'll be honest, you might struggle.

- What do you think of the quality?
Very good. - Are the authentic?

They are authentic. Yeah, you can
tell the authenticity of 'em.

These three authentic?
These are nice and old. That's the difference,

It's the age to them, then.
Yeah. What do you think, then?

I mean,
he's willing to listen to you.

He says you're the expert.
Well, if he's paid...

- You're better off starting high
and coming down. - Okay.

There's no point in going low
and then trying to put 'em up. Try 'em at 40.

- Okay.
- Then you've always gota bit of movement.

Fair enough.
Well, that's good to know, then.

Johnny negotiated a price of �25
each for seven number plates.

Fingers crossed customers
see something in them, too.

Brilliant. Cheers for that, Dave.
It's all good. You know where I am. Give us a shout if you need me.

Johnny and Vikki head back
after lunch...

A, B, C.
What's that? Age before beauty?

Always be closing.

...to help Bev get ready
for opening time.

Come on, let's have
a good day's sales.

Quite a crowd gathering.

Are we, er...
Are you ready for carnage?

Hi, everyone.
Thanks for your patience.

Please, come in.
And, er, get your wallets out.

It rotates,
and that's for colour blindness.

Hello, young man.

I'll do you 12.
�12?

- Yeah. Oh, well done.
Thanks very much. - Thank you.

Fantastic. Pleasure
doing business with you.

There you go.
Thank you. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. Pleasure.

- Thanks for waiting.
- Thank you.

Sorry, folks.
I didn't mean to keep you waiting.

But, er...
I'm sure we'll find something.

I hope you do.

How do.
How do, mate.

You're taking me good 'uns,
aren't you? Well, that was the plan.

However, what I'd love to know is
if you do a deal.

What I was gonna say is...

pick another out,
and I'll do it for 110.

One ten.

Johnny paid �25 each for seven
of these US number plates.

So with this sale of three for �110,

he's nearly made his money back
with four left to sell.

Lovely. Much appreciated.
Thank you very much.

- Cheers. Ta-ra now.
Cheers. - Cheers. Ta-ra now.

Johnny's plan to fill the shelves
from his recent buying trip with smalls is paying off

as customers are keeping
the tills ringing.

There's your horse brass gone,
Johnny.

Brilliant. Thank you very much.

I know. You can't get
too emotionally attached.

(GASPS)

- Hello.
- Oh, hello.

They came in that. Do you want...
Do you want the basket?

I just didn't think it suited them.
I hate the basket.

But if you want to take 'em
in the basket, does that work?

Yeah, it works. Lovely.

Johnny parts ways
with the cruet sailor couple set

with basket included in the deal.

- Thank you very much.
Thank you. - Cheers, my love.

Bye now.

In a rare moment of calm,

dealer Dave has popped back
to the shop.

You've got a huge "R"
right in front of the door there.

I quite like that a lot.

Came from Rhyl.

It's legit.
I didn't want to rewire it or mess with it or anything.

What if we do that at 35?
Thirty-five we like.

Thirty-five.

You keep clearing me out.
What are you gonna do about it?

And you want that, don't you?
I know you've had your eye on that.

Twenty-five.

- Happy with that.
- Okay, mate. - You're looking after me, mate.�

And just like that,

Johnny gets shot of his fairground
shooting range gun

from his Blythe Farm shopping spree.

I've not made on it.
I'm just gonna let you have it.

With a busy day
drawing to a close,

Johnny has time
for just one more sale.

I think that's my last...
I think it is.

It very well could be
my last tin that size.

Is it? My dad had one double that
he used to keep all his tools In.

Cash or card?
Er, card, please, Bev.

I saw you the other week
in Rob's shop on Star Wars Day.

I was doing Chewbacca at ya.

Oh, yes! Ah, blimey!

(GROWLS LIKE CHEWBACCA)

Oh, no!

Oh, no. Don't.
Please. She can't stand...

She can't stand Chewbacca's growl.
(GROWLS)

(VOCALISES LIKE CHEWBACCA)
(LAUGHTER)

She's gone.

She genuinely...
no, genuinely cannot stand it.

Urgh! I absolutely hate
that Chewbacca noise.

It really grates on me.
It winds me up.

Can you, as Chewbacca, say,
"Vikki come back"?

(VOCALISES AS CHEWBACCA)
(LAUGHS)

Urgh!

- Thank you very much.
See ya. - Take care. Bye-bye.

Just give it one big growl
as you leave.

(GROWLS AS CHEWBACCA)

(LAUGHS)

VIKKI: Please don't.

"Please don't." Did you hear her?

That was really ea5rnest.
"Please don't."

That was awful.

Lower-priced walk-out items,
known in the trade as smalls,

have been flying off the shelves,

so it's time for Johnny and Bev
to head off on a buying trip to stock up on more.

We need some nice, sort of, like,
small walk-out items, don't we?

- But enough that you're not paying
over the odds for them, that you can make something off them.

That is really the reason
why we're, we're going here.

To Elite Auctions
in Wakefield, Yorkshire.

And Johnny's done his homework.

The PDF catalogue,
the link that I sent you,

did you manage to have a look at it?

There's one thing.

There's a...

a typing secretary.

That just sits and types
and you go, okay.

I want to be known as the guy
with the toys, where you go,

- "How, where, when did you find..."?
How have you found that wound-up toy?

Anything else here... Yeah.
...will be a bonus.

I've set a budget... Yeah.

...to write down and keep a note
of what I have left, what's available.

You're gonna try and not
get carried away, though,

and overbid for what you think
you've already set.

I will overbid
on the typing secretary.

Now all we need is
a slow-mo entrance

and me going,
"I'm here for the typing..."

? Da-da-da, da-da-da ?

Right. Come on.

Don't forget -
budget, budget, budget.

You know that you go
buck-wild crazy at an auction.

(LAUGHS)

I don't go crazy at auction.

Elite Auctions
is a family-run business.

Let's, er, let's take a look
round the main...

Today, it's a specialised auction
that includes toys and collectibles.

Good morning. How are you?
Very well. How are you?

All the better for seeing you.
Oh, give up.

I know.

Get out of town.

And Johnny has time
to check out the stock before the auction begins.

Look, there's me.

That was my nickname at school,
Boss Hogg.

Meow! I want to have a poo
in your garden.

How many times have I gone,
"I'd love to buy your cowboy.

It's just a shame
it doesn't come with a whip."

So here's...

...the reason that we're here.

Look at this!

I'm so glad we drove here.

It's better than I hoped for.

This is a proper collector's item.

This is...

I can't imagine they made
more than 10 of these.

If they did, then they deserved
to go out of business.

Made in the 1950s by Linemar,

once part of the biggest
toy company in the world,

thousands of Busy Secretaries
were sold.

But being battery-operated,
many corroded and were thrown out,

making this working version
a very rare find.

Just another day at the office.
(CHUCKLES WHEEZILY)

Hating my life.

It's another toy like Thirsty Bear.

Somebody will walk in straightaway
and say,

"How much?" And you're gonna go...
(EXHALES HEAVILY)

"I can't split 'em up."

"Hi, Busy Secretary.
Don't you have a first name?"

"No, sir. I'm just a busy
secretary."

I've got to have it, man.

Play it cool.

Time, then, for the auction.

Welcome to Elite Auctions.

Can Johnny keep his cool
as the bidding begins?

...terms and conditions
for today's sale... Oh, I like them.

Salt and pepper shaker set there.
�20 should do this. �20, sir. Thank you.

I'm gonna sell at �20.
(GAVEL BANGS)

Lot 77. Collection of vintage
1970s Maid pop token cards.

Twenty bid, sir.
Thank you, gentlemen sat down.

Seven twenty the number.
Thank you, sir.

Far from putting
his bidding paddle on ice,

Johnny's keeping
the auctioneers busy.

Selling away at 55.

Well done, 720.

It's a really good auction, this.

There's good little bits
going at walk-out prices.

When we keep saying about
we need, we need smalls,

it's the best auction
I've been to for smalls.

I'm really, really happy.

Next in there is 44,
the battery-operated Busy Secretary. Here we go.

And it's the big lot
that Johnny's been waiting for.

�40, then. Two, sir.

Four, six, eight, 50...

Sixty now, sir.

Five. Sixty-five back in.

Seventy. Five, sir.

Seventy-five. Ninety Internet.

If you want it quickly.
Yep.

Ninety-five back in.
He's wanting it.

One hundred is the bid,
if you like, Internet. And ten, sir.

Sometimes sorts it.
One ten, 120 Internet.

�110.

Room bid at 110.

One twenty, sir. Just in time.

I am mindful that when it's known
that you're, you're into it,

anybody else in the room,
they could think you know something they don't.

When I heard there was
another person on the Internet interested,

I was like, right...

(SIGHS HEAVILY)

Will it become a joust
or will it become an all-out war?

Johnny and Bev
are at Elite Auctions in Wakefield.

Selling in the room of 42.
(GAVEL BANGS)

Johnny has made a start on his
lower-cost smalls buying mission...

Ten bid, sir. Thank you.
All finished at 10.

(GAVEL BANGS)
Buyer number 720.

...but has now found himself
in a bidding war for the object of his affections -

Busy Secretary.

One thirty again.
One thirty back in.

One thirty is the bid.
First time and selling. (GAVEL BANGS)

Your number today, sir?
Have you got it?

- What's your number there, Mr Vegas?
Have you got your number, sir? I need your number.

- I know you don't want
to put it up, but there you go. He's excited.

It were a long drive from St Helens
to get that.

PRODUCER:

I came here for one thing

and it's not going in the back
of the van, it's sitting up front.

And it will be loved.

It and Thirsty Bear

are gonna have
a wonderful life together.

Despite Johnny winning
the battle for Busy Secretary, there are other items in his sights.

These two are highly collectible
puppets that date back to 1903,

part of a collection
called the Humpty Dumpty Circus,

created in the US by leading
toy producer Albert Schoenhut.

Moving on, 86 there.

Two rare antique Humpty Dumpty
Circus performer dolls. �80. Oh, these are cute.

- These are what I want.
- Sixty bid. - Five. Seventy, surely now?

Sixty-five, seventy, sir.

Thank you. Eighty, sir.

Room bid at 80 first.

Thank you. Five. Ninety, sir.

One hundred. No? Internet's at 100.

One ten. New bidder.

One thirty. One thirty.

Can I tempt you, sir? No?

One thirty is the bid.
All done, then?

Looking round at 130.
(GAVEL BANGS)

I did good there,
'cause I really wanted them.

I think Johnny's shown restraint.
He's definitely learned from last year's auction.

I think he's thinking with his head
and not his heart.

We're seeing a new Johnny
where he just said,

"I've got to stay within budget
and I've got to make profit for the shop."

Every day you start
to feel more like a dealer.

You gain a bit of knowledge. Er...

Some things pass you by.
Some things weren't meant to be.

And what I've bought today,
you're going, yes, some bits are a gamble.

And the things you put out yourself,

in your shop or online
or whatever where, you just go,

this is me. It's what I stand for.

If that passion ain't there,

folk aren't gonna feel it.

That completes
a busy auction for Johnny.

Please tell me you got
the cowboy with the whip.

Well, almost.

AUCTIONEER: Is this any good to you?
It went unsold today.

Oh! I missed that!

Reserve, 20 quid.

(SCOFFS)
Are we having it?

? Bam-de-dam-ba! ?

Twenty quid?
Twenty quid reserve.

A bargain at �20,

but there's one small,
well, big problem

with Johnny's last-minute purchase.

It won't go through over the top.

Right, then we'll have to cut it
before we put it in.

This is an absolute disaster.
(BEV LAUGHS)

Currently being cut
into three pieces.

Even though they closed an hour ago.

There you go, just that last bit.
That's it, yeah.

(CHEERING)

That's three for the price of one.

- Cheers for that.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.

(SIGHS CONTENTEDLY)
Right, then. Are we done?

Back at Dagfields, Johnny unveils
his latest haul for Vikki.

We have got a box of smalls,
and that'll be fun to unpack.

Er, the thinking with these...

What do you love doing most?

Cleaning.

(SIGHS) Go on, then.
What have you just said? If we give them a wipe...

I just like... Just made me happy.

We're just putting out
all of the items that Johnny got from Elite Auctions.

So, pricing them up,
and Johnny's placing them out.

Well, that's looking great.

New items, new stock.

With so much new stock coming in,
Johnny has a plan to offload

one of his larger,
unsold items to make room.

Cue fellow Dagfields dealer,
Jon Eggleston.

Got a favour to ask.
Right, okay.

I bought this.

- Yeah.
- Love it.

But I've had absolutely
zero interest on it.

I can't believe you haven't.
It's a great bench.

Love the paint on it,
the colours. Fabulous.

Well, I'm wondering if I can
stick it in your shop

and do it on commission
and we'll split the profit on it. Okay, yeah, yeah.

Would that...
I've got the room for it.

It'll fit in.

- Really?
- Yeah, because

that's the sort of bench
I'd have in my shop.

You've probably inspired me
by spending time in your shop.

You know what I mean?
That's what I saw in it. Yes. Yeah.

- Yeah, yeah.
- And I'm not tryingto copy your style,

but I'm just going, I think
you can do something with it.

And I wanted to find somewhere,

and it's just, unfortunately,
sat here doing nothing.

- Yeah.
- So I'll figure out

what I paid on it,

- and whatever we make on it,
I'll split it. - Okay, we cando that. That's not a problem.

Should we shift it down there?
Do you mind taking it down now? No, no. We'll get it down,

out the way, and in.

- Brilliant.
- Okay, let's go.- Sound.

Nice bit of teak on that one.

Fabulous.

Cheers, mate. I appreciate this.

- Just through there?
- Here.- Yep.

With one problem solved...

Right.
Okay. Catch you later, Johnny. See you later, mucker.

- Cheers, Jon.
- Cheers. Bye-bye.

...it's time to price up
and restock.

Starting with this reproduction
50s toy, Cowboy with a Whip,

Johnny's given this
a price tag of �45.

(WHIRRING)

Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho!

And on the eighth day,
God made Cowboy with a Whip.

Next is his cruet set of salt
and pepper birds, priced at �42.

His last-minute addition,
the acrylic fast food signs

that were cut into three pieces,
are priced at �40 each.

I think we'll hide you there.

Little burgers.

These 1970s Maid pop token cards
are priced at �35.

The petroliana Shell Motor
Spirit can is priced at �50.

And the box of eight old cameras,

snapped up for �12
and put out here at �10 each.

If I make a tenner
off that lot, I'd be happy.

There's just one final
piece of new stock left to price up... or not.

The one item
that you wanted from the auction that you were determined to bid for.

Yeah, another item
I shan't be selling.

(LAUGHS)

I'm praying this works.

I'm praying it works.

Here y'are, Vik, look at this.

I think we should all be here
for this moment.

Der-der-der-der!

Maybe this will be the point

when you both stop asking me
do I really know what I'm doing.

I think that's in. Are we ready?

(BEV HUMMING)

She types!(LAUGHS)

She types!
She types faster than me.

But when does her head pop off?
What does she type? "Always be a good boy...

and a good girl."
And a good girl.(LAUGHS)

Are you putting her out for sale?

She's going out.
How much? No price?

Not as yet.
(SCOFFS)

Right. Right.

Gotta see these two together.

"You all right, Linda?
How's things going?"

"Leave me alone,
Thirsty Bear. I'm really...

Today is not a good day."

"No, I just thought,
what's that you're typing?

"Thirsty Bear, you can't read."

"All right, okay."
"Can I take you out for lunch?" (LAUGHS)

"I'll leave you to it."

"I'm, I'm gonna get summat
to eat from the Golden Arches.

"Do you want owt? No?
Okay, I'll be off."

Thirsty Bear
handles rejection well.

"All right.

Well, see you tomorrow."

(LAUGHTER)

"That's me off for me sickie."

Whoo!

Let's work out what's going on
with her head. Oh, she's gorgeous!

Following Thirsty Bear and
Busy Secretary's debut performance,

it's time to open the shop.

Right.
Thanks for your patience, folks.

We are open for business.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Massive queue outside, so,

yeah, bring 'em in.

The minute you see him work,
I think you'll go,

"I'm having that."

- There you go.
- Thank you very much. - You're welcome.

Oh, Vikki, show him
the secretary working, please.

What child wouldn't wake up

on a Christmas morning...

Are you looking for anything
in partic... Or are you just having a mooch?

- Just having a look round.
- Yeah.

- See if you fancy anything change.
A change, in't it? - It is.

When you call work
and you say, 'I can't come in today"

and they say, 'Can you video call?"
You go, "I'm not feeling great."

(LAUGHTER)
(FEIGNS COUGHING)

(CHUCKLING)

Hiya. Are you all right?
These.

- What are you doing on them?
Tenner each. - Yeah?

I'm not going mad on these
because I'm not that knowledgeable.

In fact,
you could school me on that.

Yeah, I am a photographer,
so... Oh, are ya?

For all I know, you've walked out
with a two-grand camera, but I'm happy to take the loss.

His camera collection
isn't the only thing selling today.

(GASPS) Oh, not me pop stars!

(LAUGHS)

Oh!

Pretty cool, aren't they?
I haven't marked them up a great deal, so they will have to be at 35.

Is that okay with you?
Yeah, that's all right. Are you sure?

You all right?
See? I told you. I told you.

We said they're quite blingy
for Johnny.

I spend my entire life going,
just... Justifying his purchases.

...just, just...

trust in Vegas.

But I am pleasantly surprised

at sales from today, so far.

If we're buying right,
we're selling right.

And I want to continue selling
right, and you can't do that if you're not stocked.

- Are you all right?
- Oi.

I've got to have that
'cause it's me name.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Well, without boring ya...

...this is... I don't normally deal
in a lot of petroliana,

but it's the detail on the top.
I love it.

Do you know what I mean?
And I would not... Please, please promise me

- you won't, like, get it
over restored. - I'm not touching it.

Anyway, Sheila, it's nice
to meet you.(LAUGHTER)

Thank you. Brilliant.

Items like this 1930s Shell Spirit
can are known as petroliana,

which covers memorabilia
dating back to the early days of the motor industry.

Collectors look for
the word "spirit" on the can

as a mark of higher value

due to these being discontinued
in 1940.

Made up with that.

It's been a good day, so far.

And the items from the auction
continue to sell.

That has literally just gone out.

He's a real fun little piece.
It's something you like. It's good.

'Ey, gotta say goodbye
to another friend, haven't you?

- Right.
- Thank you very much. - Thank you.

But Cowboy with a Whip
is not the only mechanical toy making an impression.

Have a look at this.

(MECHANICAL TYPING)

That is... I know.

Go on, give us a price on that.
I... I couldn't.

I... I... Honestly. And you're,
you're gonna walk out disgusted.

I'm already thinking 350, 400.

- Wow.
- I know.

But that might change.
He doesn't want to sell it, does he?

That might change.
But I didn't get her for cheap, and I had another collector,

and the two of us, somebody online,
really, really went for her.

So I'm embarrassed to say,
and I'm doing it as a knee-jerk reaction,

because I've only just put her out.
Okay.

- So, come back in a few weeks, and
I might have changed me mind. - Okay.

'Cause with everything
that you love like this,

you get your fun out of it,
and then if you love something,

set it free.
All right.

Okay, mate.
You talked us out of it, then. I knew I would.

(QUIETLY) Yes!

Whilst Johnny's doing his best
not to sell Busy Secretary,

Vikki, who's in charge of
the shop's online sales,

has a plan
to persuade him otherwise.

I know he doesn't want to sell her.

However, there's a big market
out there, in China and America, for these type of things,

so I'm getting her online
and hopefully we'll get an international sale.

Fingers crossed.

It's been a busy day
at Vintage Vegas, and Johnny's latest buys are selling well.

Right, so there's no tag on this.

Oh, okay. Tenner.

Yes.

Vikki's getting Busy Secretary
ready to make a splash online.

We've done a bit of research
on Busy Secretary, and this one is quite rare

'cause normally the batteries
can corrode.

But she's in perfect working order.

I love Busy Secretary.
I think she's great.

And somebody out there
is gonna pay top whack for her.

So, yeah, let's get her gone.

Meanwhile, the cameras
from the auction are proving a popular purchase in the shop.

Er, �10 each, the cameras.
Absolute steal.

CUSTOMER:

- Oh, was it?
- Really?

Gotta let you have it for five,
then, haven't I? (LAUGHTER)

- Oh... You need that on your shelf,
don't you? - I do.

Sold.
(CHUCKLES)

I love things like that.
Takes you right back, doesn't it?

I always think with old cameras,

- what have they taken pictures of
over all the years? - Definitely.

I've been looking for one.
It's better than buying it on eBay. Oh, well.

Thank you.
Thank you. Is it cash or card?

I love a happy ending.

Bye now.

Johnny snapped up
the cameras as a job lot

from Elite Auctions for �12,

so they're developing
into quite a profit maker.

You need a hot dog.

You need a hot dog sign.

Come on.

It's great. It's mint, mate.
It's great.

- And it's genuine.
- Is it?

Come from a real fairground, that.

No pressure to buy,

but I think that's a hell of
a lot of fun for very little money.

How little?

I could do that for... 40 quid.

Thirty.

Thirty-five.

Thirty five.
It's a big piece of wall art, and it's a good 'un.

Done. Sold.

Hot off the back of
the hot dog sale,

this customer has spotted
one of the Rhyl fairground letters.

- Yeah.
- They've come from Rhyl, haven't they?

- That... that's her initial.
Oh, is it? - Oh, is it?- Yeah.

They're lovely.
What have we said on that?

Thirty-five on that.

Got 55 on that.

Right, So that would be...

Eight-five?

Done.

I don't mean that "yes"
like I've won.

You're going, I'm made up.
When I got them...

It's lovely.

Er, before you go,

I do have one more of them.

Toffee apples.
(LAUGHS)

He's got the pair.

Twenty quid.

I can't do 20 on it, mate.

I can't. I'm sorry.

I, I think they're...

Let's see what they are
with the markup we'll get.

I'll do a fiver less on that.
I'll do 30 on it.

Twenty-five. Come on.

- Twenty-five.
Okay. - Twenty-five?

You absolute legend.

Done, mate.
Thank you very much.

You've got a good 'un there.
You've got two good 'uns.

So, the last-minute sign

they chopped into three pieces
at the auction

is paying off for Johnny.

See you later.
Cheers, mucker.

- Thank you.See ya.
- Ta-ra. - Take care.

Another big day.

Another buying trip that's proved
to be a fantastic success.

Pretty much everything
from the buying trip has gone.

It's, it's flown out.

Even things I bought by mistake
have sold.

Just constant sale after sale
after sale.

Instincts are paying off.

And finally, at some point,
people might listen to me when I say, "That's worth it."

And Vintage Vegas isn't
the only shop at Dagfields

making deals on Johnny's stock.

As he creates
more of an identity for his shop,

he's starting to get a sense
of some items

that would sell better
in other people's.

- Johnny. Hiya, Paul.
Hi. Michelle. - Hiya, Michelle.

Where's it going?

Er, at the foot of our bed.
Oh!

It's a lovely piece.

Well done. You've a good eye.

Jon said it was 275.
We just wondered if you could do a bit more than that.

Two seven five.

It was 300.
From what I paid on it...

Only 'cause we're splitting it...

I'll do 250.

- Thank you very much.
Is that all right? - Great.

Great. Well, thank you.

I'm so pleased it's gone to you.

- Thank you.
- And cheers, mate.

I knew it was the right decision...
Ah, yeah, pleasure. ...to ask you to...

- Now we'll sort out some other bits
that are mine. - Most definitely.

Lovely. Okey-dokey.
Oh, so he makes a profit

and I bite the bullet,

I bite the bullet on the loss.
(LAUGHS)

He knows what he's doing.

Like Laurel and Hardy!

I push the piano up the hill

and they hand him the cash.
Have a cup of tea at the top. (LAUGHS)

I've gotta wise up.
