Atlas Stone, Antique Automaton, Coffin Bank

Episode 3 of 25

It鈥檒l be guinea pigs for everyone if Georgia can help dad Callum shift his atlas stone. Peter鈥檚 antique automaton delights the dealers. And will anyone break the bank for a 70s toy?

First to join us is Emily from Kent, with an heirloom left to her by a glamorous member of the family with a background in the theatre. So it comes as no surprise when her mother鈥檚 bust has the dealers all aflutter.

Next to try to make a sale is toy collector Rob, who brings a smile to everyone鈥檚 face with his novelty horror-themed coin bank. Valuation expert Simon confesses to owning one in his younger days, but will nostalgia alone be enough to convince him to join the bidding?

As if that鈥檚 not enough excitement, Peter has a rare treat for all the antique lovers - a smoking Turk automaton. But our buyers will have to dig deep if they want to take this treasure home. Oh, and any resemblance to the Rag & Bone Bros is entirely coincidental.

Number four through the doors of Leith Theatre is well-travelled Billie. She鈥檚 keen to find out if anyone will bend over backwards to bid on her folding Indian chair.

Lastly, it鈥檚 brains versus brawn as one of Scotland鈥檚 strongest men faces off against the wily dealers. But Callum has brought a secret weapon - his six-year-old daughter Georgia. Will her promise of a guinea pig for everyone if they shift dad鈥檚 atlas stone be enough to make Jo and the rest roll over?
