  • Another installment from the first series of Just Another Day. This 1983 episode finds John Pitman visiting Sotheby's to find out what happens there during a normal day. Includes continuity, at the beginning, to tell us that Reluctant Chickens is about to start on BBC1. Sourced from a Betamax tape.

    It's so embarrassing that people show up to Sotheby's with rubbish convinced it's worth thousands 😳

      All this stuff including old cars are just RUBBISH. Other idiots deem valuable 😂😂

      Not necessarily. I found an intriguing wooden carving. I knew it was old, but wanted to know more. I took it to Sotheby's only to get more information about it. I wasn't interested in a valuation.

    46,000 for the Utrillo.....He was a wonder with pigeon poop!
    I wish I owned a Utrillo.

    The interviewer didn't ask the man how many Strataveri came through in his time!?
    Are you joking?!?!?
    Missed a trick I think.

    At 28:04, it's actually delusions of grandeur, not illusions. Good series though, love anything from the 1980s, the decade that I grew up in.
