Antiques Roadshow's Highest Valuation Ever - BBC One 

Generous.

He'd offer scrap bronze price

after the expert says is value

@@don_kandon6006 facts

Rick is an idiot. That show is a farce.

Thank you. I almost fell asleep trying to watch this.

thanks

he means 1 million £

That's 50 trillion rupees.

MercyGraceLove I second that..lol my goodness enough already you know ugh

Thinking the same thing right now lmao

Because you're procrastinating....

this was in 2008, it was about $1.98 million dollars then, and accounting for inflation that is equivalent to $2.3 million in today's money.

Nor me. I just typed "Angel of the north antiques roadshow" into the little box at the top, and this just came up.

I prefer the ones where they are told that their "antiques" are nothing but shit and only worth a tenner.

I really didn't. Goodness knows why RU-vid recommended it. I've never watched a RU-vid clip of Antiques Roadshow. And this one's a cheat because the thing's not an antique.

Hi back to you to

No, but I was watching the Mad TV parodies...

Damn. Just $80 with no sad handjob. brutal.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣for real tho

its gonna sit in the shop forever

Isch sag 80€ für den Prügel

...So true! They scam any chance they get.

Not anymore

Irony, and ironically, no iron!

This comment is an antique now.

@@angusowen9863 you’re about 10 years late with that one mate

Its also a piece of junk. Made from scrap metal from a junk yard. What a bunch of tosch.

Paul Graham It's not his, it belongs to the council - of which he is only a representative. He said that his father was a miner so I don't imagine that he's particularity wealthy.

Actually, he said "Amazing... absolutely amazing.".

Paul Graham the British, in general, tend to maintain composure more than, say, Americans

You must be American then...

He said amazing twice. For a Brit, that is the equivalent of running around giving high fives. Not everyone acts like a game show contestant all the time.

Dude is an idiot, it is half the height, but 1/8th the volume. Should only be valued at £250k.

lol yea he treated it like a math equation. One would think, the historical significance, the artist, the meaning, etc would have been most of the value of the 2M sale and thus this would be > 1M because it has all those things and is just half the size.

It’s called, he has no idea. I could be an expert too lol

Nobody knows how art works mate 😂 except that the more money you have and/or are trying to launder, the more "valuable" whatever it is you're trying to buy is

It is pretty much how galleries value paintings by "non-famous" artists, so it probably makes sense for two versions of the same work by the same artist (because the "fame factor" is going to be identical for both). I just wonder whether, with sculpture, you should base it on volume instead.

Loool

They have a section where they do that in every antiques roadshow though, and flog it too, where they give an unasked for valuation of something that is pertinent to the locale

Good point!

Spot on. I guess these shows need content to keep everything going.

It's about as hyper inflated as bitcoin.

That's about what I'd pay for it if anything.

$25.00...do i hear $26.00?

No Neck I'll do $27 if you paint it black

generous junkyard man... lucky

Change your dealer, he's trying to fob you off with dollars in England.

Hahahahaaaaa

So damn true !

Ugggh I bought a pair of timberland for $185 but after a day they weren't great for my line of work. Still in new condition Gave em up for $70 because u finally got a response -_-

$40? That’s too much. I could buy one new for that price.

Why is something that big and ugly worth that much money.

And who can blame him, a great work of art.

Idk it’s kinda risky to move something so valuable around.

Like the vast majority of "shocked" owners of items!

@@Pwwh0711 I think sometimes it's geniune but other times I think they have an idea based on the known history/research/info from parents

exactly. the proportions are shit. If those wings were curved that at least would give it a feeling of life and inclusiveness. £12000 and I will make a nicer one in stainless... with bronze detail. The "Angel with a Parachute" will stun the art world wool pullers

Decided to bow to your insight " Nefertiti with a Parachute". Its gonna knock em dead

You’ve seen an angel?

And what does an angel look lkke. I'd bet you'd be surprised ... 4 wing, 6 wings, four faces ...

@@tonybazley5733 And what about and agel's "curved" wings give a feeling 8f "life" and "inclsiveness"?

Lol!!! :-)

if that were me driving back with it i would be asking it if it's ok to smoke

Mile high heaven

That was kind of my thought. I figured it was like a concept for human flight or something. I could picture the dude standing on the side of a bridge getting ready to jump.

airplaneman! you keephim!

Plangel...

😅😂🤣😭

learn to spell

Misspelled on purpose - taking the piss out of his northern accent. Wake up!

Amizing? Lol.

There is a statue in the north of the UK by one of the motorways called 'the angel of the north' - this was basically the sample they made before they built the real thing which the guy said is x20 bigger but I find that hard to believe. Must be a lot bigger than that.

@@lj7169 he said 20 meter high.

@@bogus69 No, he said 20 times bigger. But yes the real thing is 20 metres tall and this model looks about 1 metre.

Well said.

Much better review vs what they described

@The Hierophant who hurt you bro?

@The Hierophant wasn't an insult but ok

Maybe the rolling southern countryside doesn't have rolling hills, but it has Stonehenge, Cerne Abbas, Glastonbury Tor, Maiden Castle, Silbury Hill, the Uffington White Horse, Salisbury Cathedral........the list goes on. I know which I would rather gaze on out of the Angel of the North and ANY of those I just mentioned. Be glad you have what you have. The North has many treasures like those too, the Angel is just the newest.

I’d pay 50$ to haul you away.

John Schmidt 😂🤣😂

TC Candler I saw its big brother when I visited Britain a number of years ago. It glowed a deep rust red against a blue October morning sky and for me instantly became one of the most beautiful sculptures in the world. I just had to take a closer look. When you stand under it it's even more impressive. For something so massive the fine crafting of the shape of the body is quite breathtaking. You should consider yourself lucky to have such a world class piece of art in your country.

@@Clodaghbob Exactly. Such a great image. So striking. Monolithic in stature.

@@Clodaghbob I do

No, some things are objectively more beautiful than others. "beuaty is subjective", uhh no not that subjective, a dog shit and a doric column aren't the same thing.

A million pounds? An American (me) would say he pulled that number out of his ass (arse).

@@walmartdog1142 Nope, he's right, you clearly haven't seen the 60 ft version, probably never likely to, means a lot to millions of people, of course, an American wouldn't understand!

david r you are quite right. What a piece of shit. That thing is an eye sore

@@Andy-1234 You are bit late, it's been around for decades, get over it, and your yank friends.

Lol wut

Y'know, most of the people do indeed care about the value of their items but they also enjoy the historical insights provided by the hosts of the Antiques Road Show. I've learned so much from their educated commentary.

Exactly what I did! Shut your mouth and Show me the goods!

Dude, context is everything when discussing art historical objects.

@Puff of Smoke your attitude is the cause of shitty telly

Sure the history can be of interest but when you click on a video titled 'Antiques Roadshow's Highest Valuation Ever' you probably just want to know HOW MUCH? If I click on a 'Stupid Cat' video I don't want a bunch of facts on a cat's dietary needs...I just want to see it get it's head stuck in a box.

They’ve been practising social distancing for 11 years

Are you still alive?

Wow this comment aged like a fine milk, huh?

@@nakedrussian glad to see youre still here!

Thats just not going to happen ,,,,

Now you’re doing it “art world “ style

Just poo on some a5 paper and smear it about. Frame the picture and you're now a professional artist congratulations.

Arthur Zasadny smh

I think its nice buti wouldnt buy a replica

Perfect for the north then.

A Byzantine towel rack??

Arthur Zasadny I agree I also thought this piece was quite ugly

That's modern art for you.

Just do the same. Come with an original concept, and become famous. No? Thought so.

the real one looks pretty cool

@John Kochen and someone pays him generously to spew that bullshit. Be a professional bullshitter and make a living!

Jo Lil ok then do it

Jonathan James lol

Another underrated comment

Hahaha... 3 years on...That's just never gonna get old is it ;)

That's gonna stick in my head now 🤣

It belongs to the council, not him, it was made as a concept design to present to the council. He is a councillor who, in this case, is representing the council for the sake of the programme.

A Brit would rather die than be seen to be a drama queen.

@@prappsy3028 That's rather dramatic in itself though...

Lol

The "large stiff chopper" has already been done in the UK with the Cerne Abbas Giant, so it wouldn't have been original.

Get one of those spin things, more room for washing, then throw it away as it has no use, looks shite.

Hi Ellen Rose from 11 years ago. I'm from the future where you are a content creator not a commenter. The boringness of this RU-vid inspires you to make great content!

The Bagel of the North?

it's good isn't it? The full size one is really cool, it's massive and overlooking a motorway

I like a lot of Anthony Gormley's sculptures. They're always interesting without being too pretentious.

Not on the Antiques Roadshow it isn't.

Couldn’t agree more ❤️✅

Amen!

But would it hurt to also have a million pounds???

I'll bet it was also the biggest Roman helmet ever seen... and probably the heaviest... did it have the largest number of jewels?

I guess that'll only be surpassed when they value something at "two fortunes".

The Viewer @ 2:57....

There something beyond this earth about this Masterpiece. btw Michael the ArchAngel is a real being ( Chief Prince )the bible calls him read on : Daniel 10New International Version (NIV) Daniel’s Vision of a Man 10 In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a revelation was given to Daniel (who was called Belteshazzar). Its message was true and it concerned a great war.[a] The understanding of the message came to him in a vision. 2 At that time I, Daniel, mourned for three weeks. 3 I ate no choice food; no meat or wine touched my lips; and I used no lotions at all until the three weeks were over. 4 On the twenty-fourth day of the first month, as I was standing on the bank of the great river, the Tigris, 5 I looked up and there before me was a man dressed in linen, with a belt of fine gold from Uphaz around his waist. 6 His body was like topaz, his face like lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and his voice like the sound of a multitude. 7 I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision; those who were with me did not see it, but such terror overwhelmed them that they fled and hid themselves. 8 So I was left alone, gazing at this great vision; I had no strength left, my face turned deathly pale and I was helpless. 9 Then I heard him speaking, and as I listened to him, I fell into a deep sleep, my face to the ground. 10 A hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees. 11 He said, “Daniel, you who are highly esteemed, consider carefully the words I am about to speak to you, and stand up, for I have now been sent to you.” And when he said this to me, I stood up trembling. 12 Then he continued, “Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them. 13 But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was detained there with the king of Persia. 14 Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the future, for the vision concerns a time yet to come.” 15 While he was saying this to me, I bowed with my face toward the ground and was speechless. 16 Then one who looked like a man[b] touched my lips, and I opened my mouth and began to speak. I said to the one standing before me, “I am overcome with anguish because of the vision, my lord, and I feel very weak. 17 How can I, your servant, talk with you, my lord? My strength is gone and I can hardly breathe.” 18 Again the one who looked like a man touched me and gave me strength. 19 “Do not be afraid, you who are highly esteemed,” he said. “Peace! Be strong now; be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, “Speak, my lord, since you have given me strength.” 20 So he said, “Do you know why I have come to you? Soon I will return to fight against the prince of Persia, and when I go, the prince of Greece will come; 21 but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth. (No one supports me against them except Michael, your prince. Angels being real creatures created beings who serve God are another thorn in the Atheist argument i would say! The Masterpiece above inspired me to share the truth about real angels it's good to know such beings exist which means God exists and the revelation from God is that Jesus Christ is their creator as shown in the passage below google it :D Colossians 1:15-20

Paul O'Reilly is quoting some old book really sufficient proof? Because I read this book about some dude called Harry Potter that encountered a three-headed dog.

i c it DONT LIKE IT

Can you prove they do?

I pass by that thing every day going to work and it's never really impressed me.

It is and its people deserve better.

The Angel is sited in Gateshead, to the south of the River Tyne. Newcastle is on the north of the Tyne.

Considering it's by the same author and has the same design, you can't argue with the criteria. It's just maths (though I wonder if he means half the height, half the area projection, or half the volume).

You can't talk about money...you're a Bernie supporter...since you take everyone else's money

TheSturmgeist 92 - Do you have any idea how many people make these little comments because of my display picture? a lot lol. We could go into why you're wrong but you would have to be genuinely interested because these threads get very boring. Also I don't understand your logic.. even if I did take other people's money.. I could still know very well how much something is worth.. think of professional thiefs or people who duplicate paintings who then sell them.

+TheSturmgeist 92 SAVAGE A V A G E

vjm3 - I agree lol.

***** - Are you replying to "TheSturmgeist 92"? I don't remember what he said and he deleted his comment or there's some other reason I can't see it anymore.. I imagine he typed about Bernie lol, my previous display picture.

much like Yoko Ono's remarkable "slnging"

S.I. Hobbs Love to Texas from the UK ❤️

Seems pretty controversial to call it the republic of Texas

@@grantdavis5627 If its controversial, you probably haven't been here. Our ancestors made the decision to join the States, not us. Its good to remind the Federal Government that we wont be pushed around. The Greeks had Sparta, the US has Texas.

Miss Piggy he’d be taking a huge risk.

Yeah its very demonic.

Or if you look at it in the context of its placement over a coal mine: northerners are faceless industrial fodder.
