All language subtitles for Johnny Vegas s02e07.eng

And what have you been buying again?

NARRATOR: This time,
Johnny's in trouble with Vikki.

That's our pension.
BEV: Where are you going? Skegness for a couple of weeks?

He misses out on a big deal.

- It's gone.
- It's gone.Honestly.- You sold it?

I messed up.

And Clockwork Corner
gets an extension.

That's the money shot.

It's not, though. It's not
the money shot, 'cause there's no money coming in from them.

I love my shop.

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!

(THEY LAUGH)

...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 partner 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.

I've got a price in mind.
Too low, mate.

...to full-time dealer...

That might be me naughty purchase.

You've got a deal.
He 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 SQUEAKS)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

It's another sunny day
full of opportunity for Johnny at Dagfields,

as his dealer profile has grown
and the sales have flowed.

Say 55.
Oh, you're a star. Thank you. Go on, twist my arm.

- It's lovely, isn't it?
- Lovely, yeah.A lady after my own heart. - Thank you.

He's started to attract
other dealers who want to buy and sell directly to him.

I do believe I've genuinely
built a good reputation.

But how do I strike that balance

between being eclectic
and not looking like an amateur?

Today, dealer and friend Dylan Jones
has stopped by.

All right, Johnny?
Hiya, mucker. How are you doing?

Yeah, good. Good.

It's ironic, innit? As a comedian,

yeah, I'm worried
I won't be taken seriously.

Just like Johnny, Dylan's
a relative newcomer to the business.

What is happening,
you scruffs, today, we are at Newark, Runway Monday.

But Dylan uses his YouTube channel
and online to sell,

storing his stock in a lock-up
on the same lot as Johnny's, which is how they met.

Get it all gone.

That's the plan, anyway.

Can we get this out...?

With a truckload of
house clearance goods,

a popular way to pick up stock,

Dylan's here to see if Johnny
will help lighten the load.

So this is G Plan, mid-century.

Yeah.

- It needs some repair on it. A lot.
It's been scratched. - Yeah.

A lot, which is a shame because
these patterns on it for me...

Do you know what I mean... Yeah.
...really do it.

What's... what's your best one that?

With the damage, 30 quid.
Done.

G Plan is a brand of furniture

that began at the end
of the 19th century

and is still made today
in Wiltshire.

It's also become known as a style
of minimalist design,

featuring teak wood
and tapered legs.

What the... is that?

(GRUNTS) It's heavy.

Course it is! It's half a cow!

It's grotesque, isn't it?
Yeah, I've not seen one similar.

Really? Why? (CHUCKLES)

Gone out of style.

I don't think they really
took off at Liberty's. (LAUGHS)

That is a bloke who's gone,
"I've made my way in life and I deserve the best.

I deserve the finest in stuff.

And I'll tell you what,
if I want a stool made out of buffalo legs, I'm having it."

I think it was possibly
an ox that he owned,

but he treated it like a pet.

When it died, he went,
"I'm not ready to say goodbye.

Daniel, you were good to us.
You were good to this family."

What's your best on that?

Two hundred.

It needs a home.
Rarely do I do this.

- I can't come anywhere near that.
- No.

Right. I won't be thinking on that.

It's nice... Well, it's not nice,
it's horrendous.

So it's a pass for Johnny
on the literally four-legged stool.

Okay, what else we got?

Well, one more taxidermy,
and I think you're gonna like this one.

(GASPS)
So it's... it's not a...

That's not genuine taxidermy.
It's got felt on it!

It's not a chicken.

He's gone for... It's a cockerel.

Yeah, it's a...
it's not really a cockerel.

It's, it's a makeshift body
where they've put feathers on.

So a child's probably made that,
Johnny.

I honestly don't think
a child has made that.

(CHUCKLES) I don't think

any child woke up and went,

"Oh, do you know what she'd like
for Mother's Day?"

What... what do you want on that?

- Twenty.
- Yeah, done.- There you go.

Done. That makes me happy.
Yeah.

- Oh! Well caught.
- Johnny!

So, the one-of-a-kind,
handmade cockerel

flies the coop for �20.

Decorative animals were popular
in the 1970s

during a style of homemade
farm items called country chic.

Right, What else?

A little brass cannon. And I think
that's hand scratch... build.

Scratch made.
Yeah, have a little look at that.

It's... it's very well done
for a little cannon.

It's... I know it's not normally
your bread and butter.

Yeah, it's not my wheelhouse thing.
But...

It's... Do you know what it is
with stuff like...(THUD)

(GASPS) Me cock!

(CROWING SOUND EFFECT)

Get in there where you're safe.

Do you want me to hold it?
No, it's mine now.

I'd have to offer you
silly money on that.

And I don't want to offend you.
No. I'll take 95 quid.

(LAUGHS)
I'm only playing. It's a tenner.

Make it a little pocket rocket.
If it's a tenner, I'll take it.

Let's go for the table next.

Let's have a look.
I don't want you to offload it. Tell me about it.

I've got to show you the top.
So this is Indian, and a lot of the time,

they're very scratch built.
You see the rivet, the nails and... Yeah.

That's ali,
and then that's steel and...

Mate, if it's not a giveaway
that my fingers are doing... I'm doing a Ray Charles.

That's often when I already
like the look of something.

(SINGING) Baby, baby.

Right, let's have a look.

Let me stand it up for you.
Let's have a butcher's.

(STRAINING)

I like that.
See, these are great...

I like that.

What do you want on that?
Ninety.

- Oh, done.
- Done?

- All day long.
- Deal.

Brilliant deals with Dylan.

He buys well,
he sells at the right prices.

It was overall really good.

I've sold 80% of what was
on my trailer and my truck.

He's bought some items
I thought he wouldn't buy.

And he's also bought, not bought
some stuff that I thought he's definitely gonna buy.

So, not a bad day at work.

Johnny wraps up his Dylan deals

with his contemporary vintage-style
table imported from India.

Love that.

All that's left to do now
is to get it to the shop.

Do you want me to erect it?

(CHUCKLES QUIETLY)

I'm sorry.

(SIGN SQUEAKS)

(SIGN SQUEAKS)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

NARRATOR: It's been a busy morning
at Dagfields.

You all right, Johnny?
Hiya, mucker. How are you doing?

Johnny's been using
his growing reputation to get better deals from other dealers.

Yeah, that's a fair price that,
mate. I'll do that with you.

So, with shelves to fill,
Bev's on hand to start pricing up this morning's eclectic haul.

Cock.

Stop just calling it a cock.
Just call it a cockerel.

A cockerel. A cockerel. �20.

Somebody just walked past
and they went...

What did I pay on that?
You paid 20 on it.

I know, but he's a bit of fun.
He's got felt.

Erm... Yeah, 30.

You've got your little cannon.

That was just a moment of madness.

You paid �10 for that.

Yeah, er, 20 quid.

- Got the mid-century
little table for 30 on that one, on that little table.

That needs some work,
so I'm sending it off to Kris. Okay.

Before it can hit the shop floor,

Johnny's G Plan furniture
will make a date with his restorer, Kris,

for some simple restoration
to its varnished tabletop.

So the last one,
which was the Indian one, you paid 90 on that.

I just think it's a stunning bit.
It's lovely.

I think that's the nicest piece
you bought. What do you think, then?

Well, what did I spend on it?
You spent 90 on that.

So you're looking probably
at least... Oh...

- ...at least 150 to, you know,
get past your margin. - No, no.

I think it's worth 300 all day long.

Johnny has had success before
with Indian furniture

and tables this one at �300.

Well, that's it on Dylan's, Johnny.

I'll buy something for a fiver
if I like it.

I buy talking points
and then I buy serious.

And being online
means I can buy serious and be taken seriously.

And I don't know why I said it
in that... I've never said seriously in that way ever before.

I want to be taken seriously.
Not seriously, seriously.

And talking of
being taken seriously,

Johnny and Bev
are heading 34 miles south

to see some high-end dealers

whose stock comes under
the serious buyers category.

But Johnny's love for the eclectic
means everything he sees...

...becomes a possible buy
for the shop.

Can we not buy that?
What, the allotments?

- You're not buying
somebody's scarecrow off an allotment.

Make your own.
They are meant to be terrifying.

I'm looking for a partner
for Gloria.(LAUGHS)

Today's destination is owned
by a pair of familiar faces...

...Mark McCaig and Karl Thomason.

They sell a huge range of high-end
antiques and collectibles

across different locations,
as well as some more eclectic pieces

for discerning buyers,

like this painting Karl and Mark
sold to Johnny last year.

It could be �150.
One-fifty, brilliant.

If I had a womb,
I'd carry your kids for you.

Johnny's shop may have been
a short-term pop-up in its first year,

but that didn't stop him

from becoming a regular visitor
to Karl and Mark's before reopening.

These lads are on another level.

And they're so humble,
that's what I love about them.

To have the eye they've got
and the knowledge they've got,

it's absolutely fantastic.

I can't afford 90% of their stock,

but there's one thing
if I can get it, I will.

And it has haunted my dreams.

What is it?

It's a ship's figurehead.

Okay.

And if it's there...
And they'll know

the minute I say,
"Is she still here?"

Because I made
such a big deal of it when I went.

It makes me
want to be a sailor gangster

and wake up with that in my bed.
(LAUGHS)

Despite being surrounded
by potential new buys,

at the top of Johnny's agenda

is the ship's head
he didn't buy last time he visited.

How you doing, fellas?

All right, John.
Oh, it's so good to see you.

Hiya. Nice to see you, lads.
Nice to see you.

I won't lie.

I said to Bev in the car,

no, one thing that's haunted me
since I've been here.

He knows what it is already.

Do you know what it is?
Oh, the ship's mast.

- Is it still here?
No, sold. - Oh, no!

Johnny!

- It's gone.
- Gone. - Honestly.

(BLEEP)
Can you put that on the show?

I want it in.

I don't care if you bleep me.

(LAUGHTER)

You sold it?

You know what it meant to me.
(LAUGHTER)

Who got it?

Don't know. Put it to an auction.

"Don't know." That's like...

like you've had an affair
and you go, "What was her name?" "Don't know."

It went for?
We had 14 on it... Yeah?

...and it sold for �2,300.

I'm gutted over the ship's head.
(LAUGHTER)

I'm gutted.
(LAUGHTER)

Deep, deep, honest to God...

...sadness that that ship's head...
I should have bought it.

Whenever they say, "The time
to buy it is when you see it"...

They sold it.

For double of what
they were selling it for

when I saw it.

As a dealer...

I messed up.

Big time.

Johnny's definitely still learning
lessons. Just buy it, 'cause it won't be there the next time.

So, yeah, I think that is definitely
a lesson learned today.

I don't mean to laugh.
I mean, he is gutted.

He is gutted,
but I can't believe it.

He should have got it,
and it's gone.

As Johnny ponders
the one that got away, he soon finds salvation.

It's a non-crucified Jesus,
because he's got no arms.

And he's beautifully carved,
the face on him.

Spectacular.

"You messed up with the nails.
Argh!"

"You're obviously not a joiner
like me dad was." (CHUCKLES)

Oh, he's not bad, actually.
I like him for that price.

I love him 'cause he looks like
the man who invented Speedos. (THEY LAUGH)

He's come off the beach going,
"I've got it. I wanna show it."

- Twenty pound.
- Twenty pound? - Yeah. (SCOFFS) Nothing on that.

I think the first time I came
they accepted me as a new dealer.

Now they've accepted me as a dealer.

But they've got that much stuff
in comparison to what I've got.

There's so much
you could just sit in here and learn and go cabinet by cabinet.

I love them. And I bet
they're worth a bomb.

Funnily enough, they are.
They are worth a bomb.

They're really, really early cast...
early cast iron. Rare Han dynasty.

Cast iron, cattle, mother and calf.

The Han Dynasty was an imperial
period in China's history

that began around 202 BC.

Items like this mother and calf cast

were used in traditional
burial ceremonies.

If I was gonna sell them to you,

we'd want 800 quid apiece.

But I think they're worth thousands.

I mean, to pick them out of this
is amazing.

Am I...
That's unbelievable.

He's, er, yeah, obviously
you're getting there, aren't you?

It's every bit as good
as I remembered it.

It's high-end.

Every cabinet, everywhere.

And maybe, who knows,
10 years down the road...

...I'll have pieces like that
in the shop going...

I want to be able to do that myself.

(GASPS) Oh, my God.

Reading, Reading Bear.
Oh, tell me he works.

He's a bit poorly,
but yeah, he picks up.

There you go.
(WHIRRING)

He reads a book?

(GASPS)
Reading Bear.

I'm having him.

What's the price on him?

Sixty-five.

I'm not even gonna argue.

Cubby the Reading Bear was part of
a wave of Japanese imports to the UK

after the Second World War.

Conditions imposed on Japan
after their defeat meant a ban

on factories making weapons, so
they turned to toy making instead.

Look at me.

How happy am I now?

Oh, I'll tell you what.
Clockwork Corner is just gonna be...

New addition to the family.

(SINGING) We got a clockwork bear,
and he reads a book.

Who'd have thought it?
Another clockwork bear.

I think the word's got round
with the, er, clockwork community.

I think they're all going,
"You've gotta get over to Johnny Vegas.

He'll take dead good care of you."

It gets dangerous here
because they've got some amazing fine art as well.

I know I can't afford it already.�

It's lovely, that.

This painting is by Polish artist
and author Marek Zulawski,

who was born at the start
of the 20th century.

He lived and worked in London
and was well known for this type of post-impressionist figure painting.

I've never seen a life study
done like that and I love it.

Oh, that's even nicer up close.

(SIGHS)

Nine hundred.

Again... But like the head,
like the head,

it will still be here
when you come back.

- Well, it won't, will it?
- It might.

I know it probably won't shift
in the shop.

But I also know I'd love
to have it on my website.

Can we have... Of course.
a 10-minute think on that?

But the more I look at it
and see it up close, you go... MARK: Just think.

Let's go away, have a think on that.

Then you can...
you can see how much you can...

- what you can do on that.
All right, yeah. - Okay.

Don't hang it back up,
'cause it won't be staying.

Shouldn't have told you that.
No, you shouldn't have, no.

That's stunning. That's stunning.

I think it's got a brutalist tone
to it.

You can see
the painter's marks in it.

You could walk into a room
every day of your life, and that would inspire you.

And you've got to have that...

...deep-rooted love
when you're buying art, you've got to know why.

As Johnny weighs up his passion
for the picture with a big price tag,

Bev has bumped into some
Indonesian carved puppets.

Johnny, don't go over budget.

Remember, you was only gonna
come and buy one item.

"You're not the boss of me.

Don't you tell me what I can spend.

I'll get what I see."

All right, you're the boss.

Meanwhile, Johnny's got
his head back in the game.

It's different, innit? We're not...
We're not 100% sure what it is, what film it's from.

It's from a film.
We don't know which one.

- It's me of a Sunday morning.
Yes. - I can get it on.

There you are. Wow.(LAUGHS)

Honey, I'm home.
(LAUGHS)

(LAUGHTER)

It's a very fun piece.
How much on that?

A hundred.

Er...

Is that the best you can do on that?
Without being cheeky.

I'll do you �80.

That's what I was thinking.
That's what I was hoping for.

- Yeah.
- Cheers, lads.

This prop mask
is made from fibreglass,

formed from tiny shards of glass
with polymer resin.

The process dates back
to around 1600 BC in Egypt.

This place just keeps on giving,
doesn't it?

�60.
Oh, man.

Making me buy it.

This decorative statuette
is known as Shy Girl,

made with a technique
called chalkware.

After the Great Depression
of the 1930s,

expensive materials were replaced
with mass-produced moulds

and hand-painted plaster of Paris,

a style that soon became popular
in the UK.

I think somebody'll come in
and go, "We've got a cat that's scared of birds."

It's cost us 20 quid.
If I give you 25... Twenty quid'll do.

- We'll take the 20.
- Are you sure?Yeah, I'm fine with the 20. - Cheers, lads.

This print is by famous
British artist Louis Wain,

best known for drawing
cat characters,

and was once the President
of the National Cat Club.

His love for all things feline

even extended to a period
of highly sought-after ceramics

before his death in 1939.

Right.

Decision time.

Having secured a handful
of carefully-selected items,

it's time to see if the �900
oil painting by Zulawski

will also be leaving with Johnny.

The more I look at it,
the more I fall in love.

Simple as that.

The best I can do on it, 800.

The painting's just too good
to walk away from.

Don't do it. Don't do it again.

Last time I came here,
I made a mighty mistake.

(SIGN SQUEAKS)

(SIGN SQUEAKS)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Johnny and Bev have travelled
34 miles south to revisit friends

and fellow dealers,
Karl Thomason and Mark McCaig.

Absolute slap bang on the nail.

With a haul of items already bagged,

Johnny has one last dilemma -
an oil painting

which, even after some haggling,
still has a price tag of �800.

It's a beautiful piece.
It's a corker.

It's an expensive buy
that could prove risky for the shop

as it comes at
a much higher price point than the art he usually sells.

I don't know if anyone will
appreciate what I appreciate

and I don't know if it's going in
the shop or it's going online.

That is just too beautiful
a piece of art to leave behind.

(SIGHS HEAVILY)

Right. I'll take it.

I'm happy. You know, don't do that.
You're happy.

No buyer's regret.

I know it seems like I splashed out
big on... on a painting,

but it's fabulous.

Having learned his lesson
from last year, Johnny seals the deal on all items,

even if it does mean going slightly
over budget on the painting.

Couldn't be happier.

Back at Dagfields,
and Vikki is on hand to help price up for the shop.

I went big on a couple of items.

Don't be cross with me.

Prepare to be amazed.

I've got a list.
Vik.

Beautiful.

How much?

? Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun ?

Girl pottery display figure was 60.
Oh, man almighty.

I want... I want 150, 170 on that.

The 1930s Shy Girl statuette
spares no blushes

with a price tag of �170.

Oh, look at that little picture.

Some birds chasing a cat.

Oh, 35.
I'll be happy with that.

It's just summat silly.

It's another fun piece.

What in God's name...
I forgot about this.

...is that?

Oh, isn't it gorgeous?

Watch this.
How much has that set you back? Does it move?

Right, put it on,
then push that little lever.

Had a bit of a night of it.

Oh, my God.
(LAUGHS)

It's like all my nightmares
in one.(LAUGHS)

How much did you pay for that?
A load of fun. Only 400.

What?

He didn't, Vik.
He did not.

He didn't. Eighty.

He paid �80?
He did. He did.

He's got bogies.
120.

That's making me feel a bit sick.

You don't like him?
No, I don't like it at all. Don't like him.

This mask is likely
to have been made

for a film or theatre production.

Authenticated movie props
can sell for millions.

But as Johnny has no provenance,

he's giving it his Vegas Antiques
debut for a humbler �120.

That's stunning, that.

It is stunning.
It is, isn't it stunning?

I love that.

I'd want at least 1500 on it.

And it would sell.

Polish artist Marek Zulawski
forged a successful career through the '60s and '70s.

His work regularly attracts
four-figure sums,

so this could be
a real find for Johnny.

Can't believe you agree on that.
Oh, no, it's lovely.

And what have you been buying again?

Oh, God. (LAUGHS)
Things that you won't sell.

I've started pulling
a Benny Hill face now.

When you say that, you go...
I know. (LAUGHS)

He's cute.
He's a bear that reads.

He's gonna go in there
and you're gonna go...

That's our pension.

Where are you going?
Skegness for a couple of weeks? It's lovely and I get it,

but we need to start selling them.
Watch him. Watch this.

He needs a bit of work.
Right, you ready?

(WHIRRING)
"Oh, I feel like a read."

You like it and you won't admit it.

He is lovely.
I can see the charm in them, but...

He's lovely.
But we've got to re-home him.

Look at his eyes.

"Please sell me."
He just...

Are we gonna price him?
No, we're not.

- Absolutely not.
- Vik, I've already written "not for sale."

You already knew.
Of course I did.

They ain't going anywhere.
Oh, it's fabulous.

I hope I find more doozies like that
because when you find summat

and you take an absolute, like,
almost childish joy in it,

but a collector's respect of it,

and it sells,
it's a brilliant feeling.

As the latest addition
to Clockwork Corner settles in, word has reached Johnny

of a new dealer in Dagfields,

Mark Powell,

who may have
some other items of interest.

I'm a big fan of old toys,
especially clockwork,

so if I can get my hands
on 'em, I'll snap 'em up.

If I see that his heart
melts to them,

I can't resist, put the right thing
in the right hands.

So if he loves them,

yeah, I'll have to let them go.

Oh! So...

I heard there's
a new sheriff in town. Hey, how are you doing?

Don't word travel fast
around these parts? Just a little bit.

Yeah. How you doing, boss?

- What's your name? Sorry.
Mark. - Mark.

Johnny.

You've just opened.
Two weeks.

Oh, man.

I get a buzz from putting
the right thing in the right hand.

Honestly,
I get absolute buzz from it. A man after me own heart.

There's a few little things
up here you might like.

Little walk-out things,
old toys an' that.

Oh, look at him.

(CHUCKLES) Look at him.

The enraged boxer... who's a boxer.
(CHUCKLES)

"You're not my dad."
(LAUGHS)

Oh, that. Again!

Does this work? Does it wind?
It does. You'll need a key.

And what does he do?
Just push it?

He just pushes his little...
little friend along.

It's not a little friend,

it's like a kidnapping
in an ice cream van. (CHUCKLES)

(GASPS) Be still my beating heart.

That's an old battery one.

It's clean as hell inside.

I just... I don't know whether
he's in the mood for love...

...or he's preparing
for his own birthday party.

Is it knackered? Is there...

No, the battery...
They've not leaked? ...compartment's really clean.

I don't even know if you can get
the batteries for him anymore. But it's just really nice.

No, I'll get, I'll get him.

You know what? I'll restore him.
Cool.

You know when you find out
your granddad's got emphysema and you go, "Hiya."

(CHUCKLES)

I'm not allowed to bring flowers.
(LAUGHS)

Johnny may have only popped in
to say hello, but he's leaving with some quick deals,

adding to his ever-expanding family
of clockwork bears for �75.

"It's been a tough day...

...in the stock market.

Guess what, honey,
the crash is coming."

(LAUGHTER)

Oh, God.
I don't think I'll be selling this.

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

Back in the shop and Bev's on hand
to put a price on his new finds.

Are we selling him?

If the boss will let her, that is.

- We'll put a price on him.
- Yeah.

I'm just not keen on selling him.

Er... No, just put him out
and I'll do a deal with somebody when they ask.

Let's not do that.

No, we'll put him out
and I'll do a deal.

I want to see what it's worth.
So you want somebody to...

All these are very precious to me.

And what I want to do is I want
to see the look in someone's face

when they go, "Please.
That needs to come with me."

Right, so boxer is going
on the floor, no price.

Oh, my God, you two...
To be discussed. ...are incredible.

Superb.

- I want 60 on that
at the very least. - He isn't working.

Yeah, he's not for sale.

I want 60 on him.

Sixty, but not for sale.
They are two very different things.

(BURBLES)
I know for now this is not for sale.

This is not for sale.

If we get him working,
he blows up a balloon.

You know what I mean?

Why fork out on a clown
for a kid's party when you can buy 'em that?

So we've got an ironing bear...

...a reading bear...

...a picnic bear...

...a milk-drinking bear.

We've got a Busy Secretary.

And now we've got a bear
blowing a balloon.

- Yeah.
- And he's not for sale.

A bear that blows.
That's what we'll call him.

- Johnny, there's no room
in that cupboard anyway. I've got news for you.

We're opening another door.

(DRAMATIC DUN-DUN-DUN)

Oh, God.

We're gonna need a bigger cabinet.

Another door to fill.

We were concerned about not having
enough stuff on the shelves.

Now...

Dun-dun-dun!

Yeah, but I'd rather have stuff
that you... Oh, just... just look at him.

Just enjoy the moment.

Look at 'em all together.

This is what Toy Story
could have been.

A proper drama.
Are you Woody?

- Yeah.
- A grown-up Woody? - No, I'm not Woody.

Don't ever say to me,
"Have you grown a Woody?"

I didn't. I said,
"Are you grown-up Woody?"

Not grown a woody.
It didn't come out like that.

I did say it's not Johnny's
Toy Shop. Now I think it is Johnny's Toy Shop.

There you go.

That's the money shot.

It's not, though, is it?
It's not the money shot,

there's no money
coming in from them. 'Cause you keep 'em all.

Hey, 90% of the stock
is up for sale.

Right. I'm putting the one thing on
that we are selling.

"Yeah, go on, then.
Have another drink.

You waster.

You waster."

"Leave me alone." "Yeah,
I'll knock out your other eye."

Doing a tag before you change
your mind."I'll knock out your other eye. Come on."

"You're a big man, ain't you,
when you're on the liquor?" I just want to be left to me tod."

Every toy tells a story.

I love my shop.

(SIGN SQUEAKS)

(SIGN SQUEAKS)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

With the shelves filled with fresh
stock from his expanding black book,

Johnny turns his hand
to team management.

We've got an absolute
choc-a-block stocked shop, so let's just get open.

Let's get selling.

- Vik?
- Yeah? - You see anybody on the floor,

- get out there.
- Okay.'Cause you're great on sales.

Bev, you know your prices.

We know what we've got.
We're all buying the same stuff. Let's have a good day.

I think the team is bonding now.

I think Johnny is trusting us,
me and Bev, a little bit more

to do things without having to ask.

So, with Johnny & Co now running

like one of his better-condition
clockwork toys,

it's time to open up.

Thanks, everyone, for waiting.
We're open.

That's a lovely one.

And that as well.

Yeah. So these are really, really
great repops, you know, so...

Are you looking for
anything in particular or just having a mooch?

We're feeling part of the team,

not just here working for Johnny
in Johnny's shop.

- Have you seen how well it spins,
Vik? - Yeah.

We're on the same page now.

We're all singing off
the same song sheet.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

I was wondering
if you could tell me some more about the hearts.

- Yeah. So they came from Blackpool.
Which one are you interested in? The little one.

- That's a big bag for that, isn't it?
So, are you all right with it? - Yeah.

We're not a chippy!
(LAUGHTER)

Split and fish. (LAUGHS)
Thank you.

I think the three of us
as the Vintage Vegas team, it's worked and it's felt right.

I don't mind.
It looks like I've been grafting. You look scruffy.

Looks like I've been
emptying the van. Are you rubbing him down?

Spit on that.

You're doing a stand-up
bed bath.

Like your mum said, it's filthy.

What's the best price
you can take on that?

I can do 35.

- Lovely.
- I can take a fiver off, you know?

And then I'm very close
to my margin on that one.

- That's lovely.
- Smashing.

- Cheers. Pleasure to meet you both.
Have you paid? - I have paid.

Johnny may be happy to part
with his recent buys...

Don't beat me up on it. 30 quid.

- Deal.
- Well done, mate. - Thanks very much. (CHUCKLES)

Birdy!

...including the Louis Wain
cat print he got for �20 from Karl and Mark's.

Yep, done. Thank you.
Still working.

But there's some items
he'll never make a profit on.

(WHIRRING)

Is that battery or wind-up?

It's battery this, it's not wind-up.

- It's incredible.
- I know. - Brilliant.

We've got an elephant at home
with a pair of cymbals. Clockwork.

- Get the hell out of town.
True. - How? Why?

Child... childhood toy.

No idea why.

Do you want to sell it?
You can have a look at it.

Can you go and get it?

No, Johnny, just sell
the ones that you've got.

We seem to be taking
two steps forward 'cause that's what we sold,

and about four steps back
'cause that's probably what he's acquired.

While the customers go home
to pick up their clockwork elephant,

Johnny's attention turns
to creatures of a different kind.

Hello!

Vintage Vegas has welcomed
many a four-legged friend through its doors this summer.

But with temperatures in the shop
hitting unprecedented highs,

Johnny's called a man and his dog
about a special request.

Hello, young fellow, me lad.
Hello. How are we doing?

We've been trying to source...

- We just thought it'd be
the kindest thing to do is get a bowl for the dogs.

A big bowl... That we can fill
with water and leave outside.

If we're gonna have a shop dog,
we should have a shop bowl. Absolutely. Totally agree.

Yes, I will sort that for you, mate.
You're a gent.

Thank you very much.
See you all in a min.

Thanks, Dave.

NARRATOR:
And from dogs to elephants,

as the couple with a possible
addition to Clockwork Corner return.

Oh, look at his ears.

Oh, he's cute.
Isn't he?

Can I wind him up?

Well, yeah. I think you have to
wind it up a bit. Yeah, there we go.

So the spring's a bit stiff, so...

It's been in storage a while.
I don't care. I don't care.

Yeah, he might need a little bit...
(GASPS)

(CHUCKLES)
(GASPS)

"I've... I've...

So what are you doing now?"
"Well, I...

I do a bit of buskin'."
(LAUGHTER)

I've met people like this
at the Edinburgh Festival.

He's delicious.
You like him?

I like. And it'll go in
the not for sale collection. (LAUGHS)

Johnny's toy cupboard.

- You can't run a shop like that.
Oh! - Thank you.

Ooh, what do you want?

I don't know. You give me a guide.

Erm... If I gave you... Would you be
happy with 60 or 70 quid?

That's a fair offer, yeah.

But 70 more than the 60.
(CHUCKLES)

Seventy.

Thank you.
And thank you for the effort of going home and bringing it back.

They brought back a piece,
and he's going, "It was my childhood toy."

And he was willing to let it go,
and I think it's 'cause he knows,

he senses how much they mean to me.

Wind it up, and an elephant goes...
(SINGING) "I'm not happy in the zoo.

I'm not happy in the zoo."

Although somebody does
shovel up its poo.

So where Johnny is acquiring
more clockwork wind-up toys,

there's some he wants to live with
for a bit longer, he said, before he considers selling them.

But yeah, so he's teasing people
with his clockworks.

And the teasing continues
as yet more customers are drawn

to the only corner of the shop
where nothing is for sale.

I know. It's...
it's very naughty.

And that's my shelf
of what I don't want to sell.

CUSTOMER:

Ooh. Ooh, now.

He's frightening.

Thirsty Bear's lovely,

- but watch him.
- Oh, God.

"I'm on cider."

I love that.
I bet you do, don't you?

I'll have to...
I really love it.

I know you do.

(GROANS)

I don't want to part with it.

Three-fifty on that, Johnny.

I want it. I want it.

I need it.

I might sell my first clockwork.

He's in working order.
He's with the box, which is really... I love him.

I love you for loving him.
I will love him.

But this is a massive moment
in the shop.

You do not know how many people
I've just said, "Look away.

Don't even ask."
Love, you go and have a sit down,

and me and Bev
will do the transaction. (LAUGHTER)

I know, but...
Sit on the lovely cinema seat.

How's Thirsty Bear gonna feel?

We've had a good life together,
haven't we? Oh!

"Sometimes one has to move on."

I know,
I just don't want you to go.

"Look, son, it's time you
stepped out into the world.

Me and your mother
are looking forward to retirement."

- Oh, God, it's breaking my heart,
this. - Go on, pass him across.

I shouldn't... Don't be so...

CUSTOMER: No rush.
Pick him up and hold him and see how you feel.

I will wrap him as best I can.
To his new home. He's madness, in't he?

BEV: To be loved.

I swear to God,
you're the first person

who's managed to get me
to part with one of these.

He's coming to a good home.
VIKKI: He is. He'll be loved.

And I always say
that all I want to do is send it to a good home.

Right, I'm gonna step in the back.
You do the deal.

VIKKI: Go on.

Say goodbye.
(BEV LAUGHS)

Parting is just sweet sorrow.
(LAUGHS)

Thank you.
Thank you for your custom.

VIKKI: You just stay out there.

Sold one of my clockworks.

Never thought it would...
Never thought I'd see the day.

Erm...

The way that lady looked at it,
that's where the sale...

that's where the... you've got
to let some good stuff go.

And look at her, she's going,
"(GASPS) What? Picnic bear? He's quit? He's quit?

Oh, I'll miss him at lunch."

Clockwork Corner
just makes...

It's been a success
'cause it just makes people giddy

and people don't realise
that toys like that exist.

It's that one passion project
that nobody backed me up on.

I could not imagine it
going to a better home.

Yeah, letting go...

...is letting good
when it goes to someone like that.
