The Bidding Room
Ship's Lantern, Theatre Lights and Decorative Duck
Season 6 Episode 9 of 30
Nigel Havers presides as five sellers aim to get the best price for their items. Rebecca presents Arthur the Duck, who she purchased whilst backpacking around Rajasthan in India in the '90s. Simon Bower believes the bird may be a merganser duck that could have been made any time between the 1920s to 1980s. With a strong collectors' market for ducks, it is hoped the dealers will flock to place the winning bid. Other items being presented to dealers Ian, Viki, Jacqui, Jo, and JB include a violin makers' plane, ship's lamp, servant's bells and theatre lights
The Bidding Room airs on BBC One Scotland HD at 3:45 PM, Friday 24 January. (Subtitles, new.)
