EastEnders star Laila Morse threatened to ‘kick a dealer in the shins’ for a better deal, leaving a Celebrity Antiques Road Trip expert ‘worried’.<\/p>\n

The 80-year-old actress appeared on the popular BBC<\/a> show, which was repeated on Thursday, alongside her former EastEnders co-star Rita Simons.<\/p>\n

The duo, known for their roles on the beloved soap, scoured Devon for antique treasures with the help of experts Catherine Southon and Angus Ashworth, aiming to make a profit.<\/p>\n

As they journeyed through Devon, Rita and Laila discussed their haggling strategies, with Rita admitting she isn’t shy about using her charm to secure a better price.<\/p>\n

When paired with expert Angus, Laila revealed her own negotiation tactics.<\/p>\n

“What about the negotiation side of things?” Angus enquired. “Are you a tough negotiator?”<\/p>\n

To which Laila responded: “Well I’m going to try,” before raising a fist and adding: “Otherwise, I’m going to get them in a headlock!”<\/p>\n

Later in the episode, Laila spotted an ornate chair she fancied but had to negotiate down its \u00a3110 price tag.<\/p>\n

“I like it, I think it’s nice,” she commented, to which Angus added: “I think we need to get a reasonable discount on that to give us a fighting chance. But we can try and negotiate.”<\/p>\n

Lalia had a different tactic in mind: “Well, I could kick him in the shins?”<\/p>\n

In a state of mock disbelief, Angus recoiled and covered his mouth, suggesting: “We could try. There’s no harm in trying, is there?”<\/p>\n

Laila, ever the good sport, erupted into laughter. “Or we could just ask him politely if he’ll let us have it for 50 quid.”<\/p>\n

“I’m just a bit worried, in case we don’t make good profits,” Angus added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
