00:00here today to talk about the filming back in June of the latest Celebrity Antiques road trip

00:10which we played host to where Paul and Harry were the celebrities and Anita Raskin-Sharpe and Ru

00:19Irvine were the experts. So I think this is the seventh time we've done this. You know there's

00:27not hundreds of antique shops in the north of Scotland so I guess them having tried us we've

00:33managed to secure our place on their map and I think we treat them rather well. They enjoy coming

00:41here, they always seem to buy a lot and we look forward to welcoming them back and it's good for

00:51them and it's certainly good for us. This was the first celebrity one that we had. Normally it's just

00:57the two experts come round and they're competing against each other. This time it was the celebrities

01:03and I think the fact that it was the two lads from The Traitors who in themselves have made

01:09themselves a bit of a career having you know appeared on The Traitors. I was really

01:18pleased to see them because I knew it would be good fun and it was good fun and I think when

01:23it's aired they will just continue to build their media profile up and you know I think those

01:32two lads are the ant and deck of the future. They were great, they knew nothing about antiques, absolutely

01:36nothing, they didn't know anything about what they wanted to buy. Their naivety was so refreshing

01:43and you know we turned it into a little bit of an adventure for them really.

01:50You know without doubt they're two competitive lads you know both in The Traitors and that was

01:57carried through to their their exploits in the antique shop. Harry liked jewellery, gold and silver

02:05things. Paul liked pieces of porcelain and furniture. I think it's good for putting the

02:12Highlands on the map, I think it's very important.
