And then we can lift from there. Theyre right off the hinges, arent they . Yes, yes. Wow. Its just absolutely fantastic. So, thats what the outside wouldve looked like in, lets say, 1590, when it was new, more or less. It hasnt oxidized very much at all. Thats wonderful. I dont think ive seen one i dont remember one with the inside decorated like that. So, it mustve been a superior example of the time. What a wonderful find. So, lets put it down. Are we safe . Yeah, lets go. And its been stuffed into a wall, plastered over and, um, chipped away. Its a wonderful story. Its quite extraordinary. 1829. Yes. Glorious. And here it is. So, now its 400 just over 400. 420 years old. Have we got a value yet . Yes. Were not the value is not really of concern. It belongs to the family and were very fond of it. So, i dont think wed wed never let it go as long as we have a house large enough to put it in. Do you mind if i have a shot at the value all the same . No, no, no. £5,000. Right. Thank you very much. Thank you. This is not the most exciting looking object in the world, is it . Thats what i thought when i first saw it. Its whats inside that pushes the buttons, isnt it . May i lift the lid . Of course. Ohh. It may not push everybodys buttons, i have to say. But it obviously pushed yours. Yes, when i saw it in the back of the shop, i thought it was just an ordinary floorstanding gramophone. And the guy said no, its not. Its a phonograph. And you thought. What the hell is a phonograph . laughter a phonograph being a way of recording music or speech onto cylinders rather than onto records. The first methods, i think im right in saying, of recording. Exactly. So, he showed you what it was all about. He said, come to the back of the shop, where it was. And he opened the door pulled out the drawers and displayed these cylinders. Lots of cylinders. In the original boxes. Most by edison as you can see. Adding at the same time, of course, thats, um previous owner had been sir harry lauder. Now, this is getting more exciting, because he was the superstar of his day, wasnt he . The first millionselling british artist. And he was also the first entertainer of troops. He actually carted a piano up to the front line of the first world war. I mean, this is the sort of man that he was. Um, had a Huge International following. Went to america dozens of times. I think over 20 times. Yes. Traveled all around the world. Tell me what the connection is with harry lauder. Right. Well, with this came an auction catalogue. Okay. Catalogue of the furnishings of lauder ha strathaven. Belonging to the estate of the late miss greta lauder. Um, daughter . Sister . No, niece. She came to live with him after his wife died. Right. So, this was the whole of the contents of the house. Indeed, yes. Including. An Edison Amberola phonograph with 75 cylinder records in mahogany cabinet. Edison made a good many models of the amberola machine. They were called amberolas because they played amberols this being an amberol cylinder. But the rollsroyce one you can always tell. Is it similar to the reproducer . The type twominute, fourminute you can switch no. No . I give up. Something much more obvious. Look at this fabulous. Design on the metalwork. Can you see that . Oh, yeah. Thats fascinating. It goes all the way around the reproducer holder and it goes all the way back here, all the way down to the connection to the internal horn which is behind this fret. And what is that . That is whats known as zebra markings, and its where, um the copper and nickel have been overlaid to give this extraordinary design. Now, that you only see on the very best amberolas. Yes. Got the plate at the back here which says that its a 1a. And, as far as date is concerned, the amberolas were made from 1910 onwards, so this would be an early one, id say. So, whats it worth . I know that i paid £900 for it when i bought it 20 years ago which was an awful lot of money. It was. Lets start with the cylinders, okay . The cylinders are worth about £5 each. Youve got four rows. How many in each . 25 in each drawer. Four drawers. 100. Okay, so, weve got 100 of those. So, thats £500 before we start. Now, if this amberola came in belonging to nobody at all, i would be quoting a figure of around £1,500. But provenance as you know, is everything. And i think that one could safely raise that figure because we can link it so categorically into harry lauder. I wouldve thought we should be talking about perhaps £5,000. Thats a very good price. But. I know. Its a nice thing to have. May i ask harry lauder to sing us out . Here he is singing i love a lassie. Off you go, harry. Great. I love a lassie a bonnie hielan lassie if you saw her, you would fancy her as well i met her in september, popped the question in november ill soon ha her all to masel steven moore youre our ceramics man, and its your turn today to tell us if, heaven forfend your house should go up in flames, which two objects would you rush from the house clutching in your hands . Im tempted to say it would be your clothes because look at you resplendent as always laughs absolutely amazing. But its these two objects here, isnt it . It is, exactly. Which one should we start with . Well, this is my first object. And its not the box its whats in it. Maybe you should have a look inside yourself. Oh, okay. A little. A little book. Company squad roll book. Whats this . Well, exactly. My greatgrandfather was a sergeant in the grenadier guards during the boer war, and during the battle of belmont, this was his squad roll book, and this was in his chest pocket what was a squad roll book . Well, its a list of all his men. Oh, right. So, this was in his chest pocket. He was shot in the hand, and he was shot direct in the heart. The bullet passed right the way through, out the other side and into his shoulder. So, without this book, i wouldnt be here. So, it deflected the bullet. Deflected the bullet. Theres the bullet hole. Theres the blood. Oh and every single page. Has a bullet hole right the way through it. Isnt that incredible . So, ive known this since i was a child. And, really, not only is it the reason im here, its also the reason im here today. Because, you know, from an ordinary piece of nothing, really history is transformed into something extraordinary. And thats what i love about what we do. Who couldnt . What about this item here, then . This is a figure of somebody called aida carning who was the wife of norman carding, who was the modeler of maling pottery in newcastle which was just down the river there. And, of course youre a local lad. Im a local lad. Ive collected maling pottery since i was i dont know eight, nine, ten. Something like that. And this is something, again, ive known a long time. But it belonged to a man who was the engraver of the pottery, called cecil parker. And has it got a story behind it . Well, apparently Norman Carling came to the factory in 1936, and maling made quite a lot of workaday stuff. They made some very good stuff as well. Norman carling made this as a model of something as a demonstration of his skill. So, he took it home, and i suppose his wife was the only woman hed ever seen naked so its appropriate it is his wife. But she supposedly said, if you think im having a model of me naked on the mantelpiece youre mistaken. So, he took it back to the pottery and gave it to his best friend who gave it to me. What would she think if she knew it was on the antiques roadshow . Being watched by millions of people exactly. laughs thanks for bringing it in. Its a pleasure. Thank you. Well, it seems perfect that only a few miles from the sea youve turned up with the mother of all seashells. Its beautiful isnt it . Tell me about it. Where does it come from . Um, it belongs to my father and hes 90 years old. He can remember in his household it was there when he was a little boy. Apart from that, we dont know anything about it. Oh, okay. So, any ideas where do you think its made . We did think it might be sunderland glass. Oh, you think it might be a local thing . Or even South Shields glass, because there was a place in South Shields where they made glass. Oh, right. Okay. Well, im going to actually take you out of sunderland, out of South Shields. Im gonna basically put you on a plane and were gonna skip all the way over to central europe. laughs yeah. It wasnt made anywhere around here. It was actually made over in what we could sort of call bohemia. You can sort of say falling under the austrian banner. And its actually made by very famous glassmakers working in the area called loetz. Now, loetz were actually a company that formed in the early to mid part of the 19th century, but were really a Tour De Force and a company to be reckoned with as they got to the end of the 19th century. And they were at the absolute forefront of the art nouveau Glass Movement typical with all of these beautiful iridescent colors. And in terms of the form the shell became very, very popular for them around 1896, 97 it became introduced into the patent books. And also we can help date it a little bit more by looking at the technique thats on the surface. You see this absolutely beautiful iridescence . Beautiful, isnt it . And its what we call papillion basically a butterfly. So, its meant to sort of replicate a butterflys wings. And i just think that is so wellcaptured. Normally its sort of greenbrown. Its one of his one of the factorys absolute classic color works. Now, where does dad keep it . Is it pride of place . Does it have the flowers in it . No, its never had flowers in it. He keeps it on the sideboard and my mum puts her hearing aid in it. laughs oh, i love that well, actually if we give a little, you know. Do we hear the sea or do we help your mum and dad hear every day . Its a good place to put the hearing aid, actually. Its a perfect place. They just dump rubbish in it. Okay. So, their little conch shell hearing aid holder is a really nice example of its type. And if i were to put this into auction, into a sale with typical items art nouveau glassware i would want to put a presale auction estimate of £300 to £500 on it. Hopefully. Excellent. This is one of the most distinctive medals awarded for campaigns in the british army. Its a waterloo medal, and its one of those medals that every collector dreams of. So, tell me how you got it. It was actually me greatgreatgreat greatgrandfathers. How many greats is that . Four. Crikey thats amazing. It was passed down me family, but then, when the relatives died in december of last year so the wife and the son put it up for auction. I came across it because me dad was reading the local newspaper, and he saw the article about it. Then we went over to the auction and thankfully he bought it. Kept it in the family. Your sharpeyed dad saw that it was the same name on there and thought, oh i wonder if thats ours. And he went and bought it. Thats an amazing piece of luck, isnt it . So, tell me about your ancestor. Who was he and what did he do . He was called william mcnall. He was born in 1795 in york. At the age of 15 he joined the army in leeds. And so by the age of 20 thats when he went to the battle of waterloo. He was with the 2nd battalion, in the 59th regiment of foot. And he was a drummer wasnt he . Because it says so on his medal which is really rare. You dont often find medals that are inscribed to drummers. Obviously, every company wouldve had one or two drummers, because they were really important. They were Company Commanding officers communicator and if you wanted the company to advance obviously youd shout advance. But they might not have heard you in the back. So, this chap quite a young man with the drum, who would have given the beat for the advance and they would also relay orders, and, with the rest of the band, he wouldve provided music to make everybody feel good. Moral is really important in battle. Drummers were very very important people. But its a wonderful specimen. And you see on there theres winged victory. Waterloo. And if we turn it over on the other side, theres a picture of the king. That was king george. It really is one of the greatest battles in british history where the menace of napoleon was dealt with once and for all and thats real history. You said you went to an auction. Did you take your pocket money with you . Uh, no it was me dad who you made poor old dad pay for it as well . These days waterloo medals they cost anything between sort of £1,500 and £2,000. But i think one like this, thats got this nice hanger on it thats to a drummer as well i think Something Like £2,000. So, thats a lot of pocket money. How does that stack up with what you paid for it . Um. Okay. Youre okay . Youre happy with that . Yeah. I suspect from that that you didnt pay as much as that. Am i right . To be honest 2,000 was quite close. Was it . But i think it was altogether £1,800, including tax. Right. Well, you bought well. Good, im very glad. I want you to make me a promise. I want you to promise me that youll look after that for your family, because its really important. And i always say that we dont own it, we just look after it for the next generation. Okay. And if you have any children then i hope that it will get passed on to them. I think its a smashing thing. I really wish that i owned that something with my family name on it that was at that great event in europe. Thats great. Thanks for bringing it in. Okay, thank you. Here we are again, ted not a million miles away from the International Athletic stadium. And here we have a gentleman doing his athletic bit. Its an automaton clock. And this gentleman as we will see, hopefully, is an automaton figure that produces some quite wonderful athletic movements. And i think its fantastic fun. So do we. Do you like it . We love it. We always have. And is it an old family clock . Ive always known it. Its always been in my family since, well, about 1938. My grandfather bought an Old Farmhouse in reigate, in surrey. And this was in the old nursery right up on the top floor. So, i can remember it as a very small child. Is this your this is eva, yes. And she loves it, too. But we dont play it very much, because we want to make sure that it doesnt overwork itself. Because i think that bit of it is very sensitive. Well, it was, in fact, made in france. Right. Towards the end of the 19th century in about 1870, 1880, that sort of period. And we know this because this is a very typical shape for french provincial clocks, wall clocks. And lets see if itll behave for us. Oh, fingers crossed. Right. Pull the cord. Push this. bells playing and we have to touch on what its worth. I wouldve said that a pretty clock like this with music and an automaton today in the saleroom, should fetch between £600 and £800. Thank you. Now, at a time when smoking is so out of fashion why are you collecting cigarette advertising . Well, it came about because i worked for w. D. And h. O. Wills in the 1950s i have to say, which was a long time ago. Um, they closed the factory in 1984, and, as with all things closing down they cleared out everything cupboards, offices et cetera. These were one of the unwanted pieces of, um. Memorabilia. Thats right. We brought them home because my husband worked there. He worked there for 32 years and he was there just before it closed. And unfortunately, they disappeared into our garden shed. Oh, is that where theyve been kept . Yes, and theyve been there for about 24 years and we were having a little clearout. I saw them and i thought antiques roadshow. Ill take them down. So, you worked at the factory and your husband worked at the factory . Yes, we did. We met there we were in a play together in a drama group and we got married. And there were many partnerships formed and marriages formed because there was a staff of 1,500 people. Exactly. Now, this one i particularly like. The mans cigarette that women like. Is that what attracted you to your husband . Im not quite sure about that but i was attracted to him, shall we say. I mean, really here youve got such a mixture of Healthy Living in the countryside the sport and the glamour. It really sort of gives that whole sort of 1930s the supermodel of the day, as it were. And thats effectively what youre aspiring to by smoking the wills cigarette. Being very sophisticated, with the smoke drifting by. The kate moss of the day . Exactly. Valuewise youre looking at i mean, these are the decorative ones. Theyre so stylish that easily these are £100 to £200 each. Really . And these, with a little bit of damage would be £80 to £120. How lovely. But theyre great thing. I would love them. Yes. And not to go back in the shed. No, i wont. I promise. Ha ha ill have them on display in the future. Coming to gateshead, i was greatly looking forward to looking at angel of the north but i couldve sworn it was a bit bigger than this. But it is an original. That is an original. But that existed before the real thing. And the real thing is 20 times bigger than that, and 20 times broader. Am i right in thinking youre on the council . I am on the council. Were you responsible in any way for the Great Commission . Well, i was. Obviously everyone on the Council Voted for or didnt for the council. There was some controversy there. But it went through with a big majority, and i think ever since the whole world has warmed towards the angel of the north. It was a very inspired and bold choice, because you have created on its site probably the most successful contemporary sculpture in britain. I think it is. I think its a beautiful object anyway. Its got great emotional ties for me. My father used to work on the coal mine on the site where the angel now appears. So, just to clarify this is the bronze maquette for the 20meterhigh steel version. The proprietary work that gormley, the sculptor Antony Gormley used to persuade you and others to commission this great object. It was the maquette which is one of a number but was the final one. Basically, the angel of the north you now see just off the a1 is based on this. And isnt it a motorist every second sees it . Just about, yeah. And rear passengers and probably air passengers as well. I think its worth asking, why is it such a successful work of art . And i think the angel or the concept of the angel goes deep into the human psyche. Its an archetypal image that goes right back to renaissance times. We see them riddling throughout Panel Paintings and altarpieces. And indeed it was angels an angel or a group of angels who heralded the birth of christ. Using something that has a deep resonance in our culture Antony Gormley has given it basically a makeover. Hes called it angel of the north. That immediately makes it quite terse and modern. Its placed over a coal mine a sort of deeply emotional site for something quite so beautiful important, and salvationary as this. But even this has a power, an arresting power. I remember just seeing it as it came in, and, you know, it seemed to take the room over. So, now we come to the subject of valuation. And how do you value Something Like this . Well, its easier to value than a lot of things of this stature, of this iconic resonance because another version did sell very recently. Admittedly it was taller, and it wasnt of bronze. And that made about £2 million, or, rather a little bit over that. So, i think, on the basis that this is half the size i would comfortably value it at £1 million. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. So, an eggshaped box. Lets have a look inside. And lookits exactly what id hoped for. Its a little broach with two eggshaped pendants. Tell me about it with you. My husbands grandmother was living in moscow and had to get out in a hurry in 1918. And she made herself a little bag in which she put some jewels, and tucked it down under her skirt. So, when she was frisked going out of the city they couldnt frisk her there. They couldnt frisk her there, thats right. So, it made its way back to this country. And, of course, its got the magic name in the lid, which always sets the pulse racing doesnt it . And you know what that is, dont you . I do. And what does it say . It says faberge. Yes, it says k. Faberge, which is an indication it comes from the Moscow Branch of faberge. Right, it is. And its an easter morning present. Easter was the great festival religious festival in russia. And in the morning easter morning youd greet your family and friends with the greeting christos Voskres Christ is risen and given an easter egg that was appropriate to your means. The means of this were really quite high because faberge was a very luxurious shop to go to and things cost a lot of money. This is very interesting because its a pair of easter eggs which is highly unusual one of rhodonite which is a red stone from the urals and the other one a banded white haggite. And theyre secured theyre freemoving from this gold broach. And i have every confidence its going to be signed k. F. On the body of it and that therell be a little inventory number on it. And i guess thats probably from the 1890s to possibly the early 20th century. We know far more about faberge than we did in the past, and the story gets more and more magical. But faberge wasnt alone certainly not in moscow, or, indeed in st. Petersburg. There were people competing against him in the old russian taste. And in here we have a fine example of the old russian taste from one of his competitors, whos called ovchinnikov. Marvelous name, isnt it . Sounds like a sort of clinical problem. But anyway, this is a set of silver spoons by ovchinnikov. And, to be perfectly frank their decorative appeal transcends their actual function. Im never really quite sure what these are for. Perhaps they are for tea at the samovar. But more importantly theyre to give away to present a piece of goldsmiths work from russia. And its what we call champleve enamel. It means a raised field. So, its heavily engraved, flooded with the sky blue enamel. And theyre beautiful. Made at the turn of the century in 1900 evoking the 17th century style. And so, theyre exactly the same period, but they were in competition with one another. Terribly exciting to find them together, and in your family with a dazzling history. What do they mean to you . What do you feel about them . This, of course, she couldnt hide on her person so she made a parcel sent it to the British Embassy, and that was the end because the British Embassy was ransacked. However, in 1924 when Ramsay Macdonalds government started to talk to the soviets, she got a letter saying, weve been in a basement, and weve pulled out an old cabinet and theres a box there with your address on it. So, these came home, too. No. How amazing. Truly extraordinary. So, they lived through the chaos of the revolution to be returned at a calmer not entirely calm stage to your family. How to value all of that provenance i dont know. I can value them in a sort of coldblooded, rather mercenary way and, um, the value of these russian works of art has galloped ahead owing to the interest from russia. They want to repatriate these things and you can quite understand why. The twin faberge easter egg broach in an eggshaped box for easter morning i dont know. My goodness. Thats very hot and desirable and wearable. And, um, i suppose ive got to say Something Like £12,000 to £15,000. laughs thats amazing. For a tiny little thing like that. Its very quiet. Its a very subtle thing. These are not quiet and subtle and they are by ovchinnikov. Theyre certainly valuable. But theyre not in that league at all. Um, and i think maybe £1,500 because theyre in their gorgeous red leather box and theyre absolutely pristine. But anyway thats the difference of the magic of the faberge name and the lesser magic of one of his competitors. It was always like that in russia, its always like that now. What a thrill. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Brilliant. Weve had a very good day here at gateshead as youd expect, with our own Guardian Angel watching over us and a very valuable one, too as weve now found out. Given that it weighs 100 kilos, it takes five men to lift it. And things are drawing to a close here, so its now time for the angels return back to its usual spot looking over the good folk of gateshead. So, its goodbye from another antiques roadshow.

A triple murder in the heart of paris, three female rebels shot to death. The french government calls it an execution. A series of bomb blasts in pakistan claimed the lives of more than 100 people, many more injured. The nominations are out with lincoln leading the oscar pack. Silver lining playbook has racked up an accomplishment not seen in 30 years. Welcome to our viewers on Public Television in america and also around the globe. Three kurdish women have been shot dead in paris in what police described as execution style killings. One is being identified as the cofounder of the kurdish independent group that has been in an Armed Struggle with the kurdish government since the 1980s. By the time the bodies were removed this morning, riot police were forming a cordon around the murder scene. Among them, the yellow hot militant groups. The women were found in a locked room of the information center. They had been shot in the head. The interior minister promised a thorough investigation. They were executed, he said, an extremely grave matter. Three women were turkish born activists, the key figure was a cofounder of the group in the 1970s. Another was the representative of the National Congress based in brussels. The third was a young activist. Since 1984, they have been fighting a bitter guerrilla war with turkey including human rights in the economy in the southeast of the country. The government has been holding talks for the leader of the group. Vicki was a good friend of his deeply involved in the peace talks. Many believe she was the target. Not all agree with the leader. They would point of the vendor at the a point the finger at the deep state of turkey. It is a problem with terrorism, and it has the last terrorists. Tonight, a prince came. Funding for this presentation hundreds came. To pakistan where police say more than 100 people have been killed in separate bombings in the country. The death toll has climbed and many more people have been injured. A bomb in the center that appears to have targeted soldiers. And then an attack at a religious gathering 20 killed at this time. And in the evening the bombing in an area where members share a muslim minority. Journalists and onlookers have gathered at the site. And the building collapsed. Scores of people, according to the police, have been killed. There are groups whose main aim is to target the shia muslims. Hundreds have been killed. The authorities fail, and they find a way to end the bloodshed. Reporting on a violent day in pakistan. Barack obama announced he is nominating the white house chief of staff as america opposing new treasury secretary. Saying he has his complete trust. He will replace Timothy Geithner that does not wish to serve a second term. The Vice President continued his meetings on how to curb gun violence in america. He wants to give his proposals to president obama by tuesday of next week. He said why it is important act now. Nothing that has gotten to the heart of the matter more than the visual image of six yearold kids riddle. Not shot with a stray bullet, but rattled. Of the comments came on the same day that a student was shot and wounded at a California High School where another was taken into custody. For more, the Vice President was meeting in the white house as we were getting news that there was yet another school shooting, and there is a real sense of urgency that is still there. We saw president obama after the shooting a visibly upset saying he would use the power of his office to act on gun control and do it quickly. He asked joe biden to convene with a sense of urgency. They had been meeting to move things forward quickly. They want to get in that space while people are still shocked about the killings. The tragic irony is that while he was meeting people and talking about it today on the west coast, somebody else was firing at a school. He wants to give proposals to the president by tuesday. He was forthright. Has met with people like advocacy groups, prevention organizations, justice organizations, and there is an emerging consensus, a couple things that want to look at our universe of background checks. They are thinking of tightening that up. And the availability of high capacity magazines, the same types have been used in recent shootings. We should note that the gun used in the california shooting was a shotgun. The cartridges are unlikely to come under new types of legislation. He said there is nothing we can do this awful shootings, but they want to try as best they can. Dodge the nra put out a statement that looked like there is room for compromise. Not at all. They said guija best protection from a bad guy with a gun is another guy with a gun. We want to have a conversation about the marketing of violence and the collapse of federal prosecution. We were disappointed with how little it had to do with keeping children safe and how much it had to do with an agenda on the second amendment. Well take our meaningful contributions to members of congress that are interested in having a conversation on what works and what does not. The power of the nra with will remain with people that do not favor gun control. The gang rape of a young woman has sparked international outrage.

Even the local Bar Association refused to provide legal help for the accused. All of them now have legal representation. His client says he was forced into making a confession. This 22yearold boy was picked from his village and tortured for 10 days. He was coerced into it mission and is unable to speak out. You tell me, is torture the only way . Should justice be done or an innocent person be hanged. How they refused to comment on the claims citing legal restrictions. It opened up a wider debate on how women are treated in india. Protests and vigils continue today in the capital, calling for change. The fast track for sex offenses have been set up after the attack. It will take years for victims to get their case to court. It will take far longer to change mindsets in a country where many women still suffer. That case has captured Media Attention of around the world but a similar case in south africa where 600,000 people are sexually assaulted every year has largely gone unnoticed. Police are searching for suspects accused of raping a student on wednesday. Our africa correspondent reports. Another gang rape in south africa in fields close to a university were a 21yearold woman was going to enroll. She was attacked at night and survived. For other students the incident has come as no surprise. [indiscernible] it is not ok. There must be something done about them. Of the gang rape here has provoked little more than a collective shrug across south africa almost stunned by the scale of the problem. 600,000 people are sexually assaulted every year. This woman was gangraped in 2010 and she has become a vocal campaigner for womens rights in what she believes to be a damaged society. Genderbased violence is part of the patriarchal culture. Into thinking it is endemic . Is an everyday thing. It happens on a daily basis. I think that fear, there is violence because the perpetrator, most of the time, has the power in one way or the other. There has been some soul searching in recent days as people have noticed the huge public outcry in india. We should not have campaigns on the basis of an incident that happened today. It is on going. South africa is struggling to change in the face of what many call a rape epidemic. You are watching bbc world as america. And inauguration, missing the big day in venezuela.
