0:00:02 > 0:00:04It's the nation's favourite antiques experts...

0:00:04 > 0:00:06- I don't know what to do. - HORN TOOTS

0:00:06 > 0:00:11..with £200 each, a classic car and a goal to scour Britain for antiques.

0:00:11 > 0:00:13What a little diamond.

0:00:13 > 0:00:15The aim - to make the biggest profit at auction.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17But it's no mean feat.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20Back in the game. Charlie!

0:00:20 > 0:00:23There'll be worthy winners and valiant losers.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24SHE GASPS

0:00:24 > 0:00:26So, will it be the high road to glory,

0:00:26 > 0:00:28or the slow road to disaster?

0:00:28 > 0:00:31- Oh!- This is the Antiques Road Trip!

0:00:34 > 0:00:35Yeah!

0:00:41 > 0:00:44It's the final leg of this week's adventure

0:00:44 > 0:00:46for Natasha Raskin and Philip Serrell.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50I don't know how to tell you this but I'm in love with you.

0:00:50 > 0:00:53- Well, do you know what? - You don't seem too moved.- No.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55You seem quite throwaway, casual about this.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Well, you know, it happens all the time.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59You big fibber.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04As we all know, antiques expert Philip is a Road Tripping veteran

0:01:04 > 0:01:07who loves to lead the way.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10- I am of course the captain of this ship.- Shortest way up.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13- BOTH:- Longest way down. - No, no, no!- Oh, no!

0:01:13 > 0:01:16Longest way up, shortest way down.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Lordy. Smiley auctioneer Natasha

0:01:18 > 0:01:21is still learning all the Road Trip rules.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Away from the pots, away. Oh, they're so shiny.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Our pair have been cruising across the country

0:01:32 > 0:01:35in this lovely 1957 Porsche Coupe

0:01:35 > 0:01:38and their competitive spirit is alive and well.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Oh, I've got a sneaking suspicion that Serrell

0:01:41 > 0:01:45might just sneak another Road Trip under his belt.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48No, no, cos there's every likelihood with me that I will go

0:01:48 > 0:01:51and do something stupid like buy a sheep.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53BLEATING I say.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59It's been a bumpy ride for Natasha. After starting this trip with £200,

0:01:59 > 0:02:06a few losses along the way now has her total sitting at £165.64.

0:02:09 > 0:02:14Philip's faring much better. After starting with the same £200 stake,

0:02:14 > 0:02:20he's now in the lead with a fabulous £325.40 to spend on this last leg.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22Cheer up.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26I'm really, really sad cos we're just heading towards

0:02:26 > 0:02:30- our last auction. Isn't that sad? - That is a bit sad, isn't it?

0:02:30 > 0:02:33It's a bit weird as well because I've got used to it now.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Well, we'd better make this a good one then.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43Our two experts started out in Narberth in Pembrokeshire.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46From there, they've travelled several hundred miles,

0:02:46 > 0:02:48covering Wales and southern England

0:02:48 > 0:02:51and will end their trip today

0:02:51 > 0:02:52in Salisbury, Wiltshire.

0:02:54 > 0:02:55Before their final auction,

0:02:55 > 0:02:59they're kicking off this last leg in Eversley, Hampshire.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03SHE LAUGHS

0:03:03 > 0:03:06- Are you OK there? - Yeah, good, thank you.- Come on.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10First stop today is Eversley Barn Antiques.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13- Hello. Hi there. Hello, you must be Hilary.- I am.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15I'm Tasha, lovely to meet you.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- Hi, Philip. How are you? - Nice to meet you.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19You have got a very tall barn full of stuff here.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21- It is rather full. - It's beautifully appointed. Gosh!

0:03:21 > 0:03:24Everyone's looking for something different so you have to have it all.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27- We've all got different eyes. - We do.- Absolutely.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30- Which way are you going to take yours?- I don't know. That way?

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Are you going to go upstairs or...? - I might just sneak outside.

0:03:33 > 0:03:34Ah. OK, I'll stay in.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37I'll leave you to it. You've obviously spotted something.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43While Phil hijacks Hilary, Natasha heads upstairs.

0:03:44 > 0:03:49Oh, this looks good up here. Yes! In the attic. A bit more my cup of tea.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53Tile-top coffee tables, modern. Yes, I'm into this.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57Oh, I actually thought I liked it up here cos it was modern

0:03:57 > 0:03:58but I love this cellarette.

0:03:58 > 0:04:03It's totally cool because in the very beginning of the 20th century,

0:04:03 > 0:04:05when this would have been produced, I reckon,

0:04:05 > 0:04:07this is taking the wine from the cellar

0:04:07 > 0:04:09and then bringing it to the dining room

0:04:09 > 0:04:13but keeping it cool in a cellarette. So a mini wine cellar.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17This looks more like a plant pot holder or jardiniere to me.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Nice thing though.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20It's not perfect.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23It's a little bit worn, but it's got to be late-19th-century,

0:04:23 > 0:04:26early-20th-century so we'd expect that.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30This is £88 and as I'm saying that, I've actually just clocked the fact

0:04:30 > 0:04:34it's got blinking woodworm in it! That is...

0:04:34 > 0:04:36Oh! How did I not notice that?

0:04:36 > 0:04:39So, woodworm aside, I only really want to spend

0:04:39 > 0:04:41about £35 or £40 on it, which is a bit cheeky, I know,

0:04:41 > 0:04:45but it's what I want to spend. I want to make a profit at the end.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48As does Phil. Spotted anything yet?

0:04:50 > 0:04:53- That little rocker's sweet, isn't it?- It is, isn't it?

0:04:53 > 0:04:54Good condition, too.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59- So this is what, 1950s, is it? - Yes, I think so.

0:04:59 > 0:05:04And it's got this... little piggy and the bunny rabbit.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08That's quite sweet, isn't it? You've got 30 on it.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10What could you do that for, Hilary?

0:05:10 > 0:05:15I'm selling that for a friend, so probably about 24.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Would £20 buy it? - I knew you were going to say that.

0:05:19 > 0:05:20Yes, £20. Yes.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23Hilary, I think that's lovely. I'm going to buy that off you.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27- Oh, lovely.- I'm going to buy that. - Thank you so much.- Thank you very much indeed.

0:05:27 > 0:05:31So, that's the first lot bought on this final leg.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34Hopefully Natasha is faring well back inside.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38I love revolving bookcases and this looks like a really nice one.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40I'm hoping that underneath this jug...

0:05:40 > 0:05:44Yes, there is a really nice Edwardian inlaid cartouche,

0:05:44 > 0:05:46a little bit of marquetry, which is always good

0:05:46 > 0:05:48but what's really nice about it

0:05:48 > 0:05:50is that you've got books all the way around

0:05:50 > 0:05:52and it revolves, so let's check out... Oh.

0:05:52 > 0:05:57It's a little bit stiff actually. It's not quite got that slick... No.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01It's actually a bookcase that's a tale of two stories, really.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04You've got the early 20th century up here,

0:06:04 > 0:06:05with its lovely Edwardian motifs

0:06:05 > 0:06:08and then you've got late 20th century down here,

0:06:08 > 0:06:11with dodgy plastic casters that everyone is trying to forget.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14So, let's have a look at the price

0:06:14 > 0:06:18because that's probably reflected here. "Revolving bookcase", 55 quid.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20So, it's not quite a revolving bookcase.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23It's a book case that revolves, if you know what I mean?

0:06:23 > 0:06:27Uh... I think so. Another possibility.

0:06:27 > 0:06:32Downstairs, Phil's found a lovely set of boat steps,

0:06:32 > 0:06:35ticket price £165.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38I think they're fun things. There'll be one or two uses.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41They're either the sort of thing that someone is going to hang

0:06:41 > 0:06:46in a seaside cottage or they're the type of thing

0:06:46 > 0:06:50that someone might have in a library or, for me,

0:06:50 > 0:06:54they're the type of thing that you...

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Actually... I'll just work this out.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Aren't those a cool set of shelves to hang up somewhere?

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- Brilliant. Yeah, they would hang on a wall.- Yeah.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07I think on a bad day...

0:07:09 > 0:07:11..those are going to make £60 or £70.

0:07:11 > 0:07:16On a good day, they might make 120, 130. That's what I think.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19I'd like to try and buy them for somewhere between £80 and £90,

0:07:19 > 0:07:23if I could. I really like those.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27- How about 90?- Are you sure? - Smashing. Thanks very much.

0:07:27 > 0:07:32A very generous £75 off the ticket price.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34How's Natasha getting on?

0:07:34 > 0:07:36These are really sweet.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40These are a napkin rings and they are, I think, Bakelite,

0:07:40 > 0:07:43which is an early plastic and kind of dates them

0:07:43 > 0:07:47to probably the 1930s or '40s and they're novelty.

0:07:47 > 0:07:50The dog lovers would like them. But they're quite sweet.

0:07:50 > 0:07:51They're a tenner each.

0:07:51 > 0:07:56They are marked with this code - EBA, and so is the bookcase,

0:07:56 > 0:07:59so I don't know who the seller is but I reckon that's their initials

0:07:59 > 0:08:02and if they want to get rid of both these things, maybe they could do it

0:08:02 > 0:08:05in one fell sweep... One fell swoop! Ah!

0:08:06 > 0:08:09It turns out the jardiniere is marked "EBA" too.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11They're all owned by the same dealer.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14With a collective ticket price of £163,

0:08:14 > 0:08:17will Natasha try a cheeky offer for the three?

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I bet she does.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23All together 75, but that's my opening gambit, Hilary.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- We know how it works.- We do.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Hit me with your...- I'd like 85.- 85?

0:08:28 > 0:08:33If that's possible because we do like to make a bit, a little bit.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35- Can you do 85?- I definitely can

0:08:35 > 0:08:38- because that's still a massive chunk off.- Brilliant.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41- If you're cool with that, I'm cool with that.- Brilliant.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45A great deal for three interesting items. Well done, Natasha.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Does anything else grab you, Phil?

0:08:51 > 0:08:54This is just an interesting tray.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56It's late 19th century. It's in mahogany.

0:08:56 > 0:09:01But all this decoration, which is inlaid into the mahogany base,

0:09:01 > 0:09:02is marquetry.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05Now, there's two issues with this.

0:09:05 > 0:09:10The first thing is condition cos we've got a bit of a crack there,

0:09:10 > 0:09:11and the second thing is

0:09:11 > 0:09:15it's completely and utterly out of fashion.

0:09:15 > 0:09:20So, a tray like this in good order, 15 years ago,

0:09:20 > 0:09:22would have been between £200 and £400.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26This is now priced up at £55.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29What's it going to make at auction?

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Well, in my eyes, it's going to be making 30-40 quid

0:09:32 > 0:09:36so I've got to try and buy it for around £20, £25.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40Cor. Better get your bartering head on, old bean.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44I'm hoping I can try and buy it off you for around the £20 mark.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- How does that...?- It's a bit low. - Come on, tell me.- A bit low.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52- It's the condition really, isn't it? - Cos it's priced as damaged, but...

0:09:53 > 0:09:56Can you do...25?

0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Yeah, go on, you're an angel. - All right, brilliant.

0:10:00 > 0:10:05- Thank you very much.- So, Phil's also bought three lots in the first shop.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Bold buying.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13After that storming start, Natasha's decided to take a break

0:10:13 > 0:10:18from shopping and has headed 20 minutes south to Aldershot.

0:10:18 > 0:10:22She's come to the Military Museum to find out about the American cowboy

0:10:22 > 0:10:27Samuel Franklin Cody, who became Britain's first aviator.

0:10:27 > 0:10:28Great moustache.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31She's meeting author of The Flying Cowboy, Peter Reese,

0:10:31 > 0:10:33to find out more.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35- And there's the man himself. - There he is.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38He's looking pretty dapper, isn't he? Some style. My goodness!

0:10:38 > 0:10:40Well, he looks like Buffalo Bill

0:10:40 > 0:10:42because he modelled himself on Buffalo Bill.

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Ah, see, when I saw the surname Cody I thought of Buffalo Bill

0:10:46 > 0:10:48because that was HIS surname, was it not?

0:10:48 > 0:10:52It was, but Cody changed his name from Cowdery to Cody.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54- Ah, to be more like Buffalo Bill? - To be more, yes.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57His dates are a wee bit later than Buffalo Bill's, is that right?

0:10:57 > 0:10:59They are. He's much younger than Buffalo Bill.

0:10:59 > 0:11:03Wannabe cowboy Cody left home at a young age,

0:11:03 > 0:11:07training horses and working the cattle trails across Texas.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11But, by the 1880s, the Wild West was disappearing.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15So, after Buffalo Bill started to tour Europe with a cowboy show,

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Cody followed with one of his own.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Cody's act of the West is Cody himself.

0:11:20 > 0:11:25- His horse, his lasso, his gun, his pistol.- A one-man show.

0:11:25 > 0:11:30- One-man show.- Oh, wow. A one-man Wild West show.- Absolutely.

0:11:30 > 0:11:35Cody's wild cowboy performances won him the love of the British public

0:11:35 > 0:11:40and, out of the limelight, he was becoming fascinated with aviation.

0:11:40 > 0:11:44A hobby of building big kites soon developed into something much more,

0:11:44 > 0:11:47and while working with the British Army,

0:11:47 > 0:11:52he designed the aeroplane that would see him fly for the first time.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55In this period, we are behind the Americans.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58The Wright brothers have flown at the end of 1903

0:11:58 > 0:12:01and the French are also getting into the air, so we are behind.

0:12:01 > 0:12:06Oh, no. And as an American, he must have been itching to get in front.

0:12:06 > 0:12:10- As Cody, he would.- Ah-ha! Not just an American but as Cody.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14And on 16 October 1908,

0:12:14 > 0:12:20Cody actually makes his first flight and his first flight is successful.

0:12:20 > 0:12:24- It's 440 yards, 27 seconds. - Oh, wow.

0:12:24 > 0:12:29Ends up with a crash and he gets cuts and bruises but he has flown.

0:12:29 > 0:12:34After being crowned the first man to fly a powered flight in Britain,

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Cody's aviation obsession grew.

0:12:36 > 0:12:39The following year, he became a naturalised British citizen

0:12:39 > 0:12:42so he could enter flying competitions,

0:12:42 > 0:12:45often with cash prizes, to help fund his passion.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Before that, he was rejected because he was a foreigner.

0:12:48 > 0:12:51- So, this cowboy is now a Brit? - He's a Brit.

0:12:51 > 0:12:56And he signed his papers on the town clerk's shoulders

0:12:56 > 0:12:58to the local band playing.

0:12:58 > 0:13:02- You see, Cody did it very quietly and modestly.- Yeah, yeah.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07In 1910, the final flying competition of the year

0:13:07 > 0:13:10was the Michelin Trophy

0:13:10 > 0:13:14for the longest distance round a closed circuit.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18On 29 December, fellow aviation pioneer Thomas Sopwith,

0:13:18 > 0:13:23flew a seemingly unbeatable 150 miles non-stop.

0:13:23 > 0:13:28Two days left in the year, so he hasn't done it. He doesn't do it?

0:13:28 > 0:13:32The odds are against him and the weather's bad.

0:13:32 > 0:13:36But on New Year's Eve he's up very early in the morning.

0:13:36 > 0:13:41He's striding his lawn in the frosty grass and he decides to have a go.

0:13:41 > 0:13:46The first three hours, you can imagine, they're monotonous.

0:13:46 > 0:13:53He's frozen but he continues in this solid progress for three hours.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56- Pure adrenaline. - His intake pipes are freezing up

0:13:56 > 0:13:59so he's getting an awful build-up of ice

0:13:59 > 0:14:02but he staggers on, staggers on, staggers on,

0:14:02 > 0:14:06and he doesn't give up until four hours 40 minutes

0:14:06 > 0:14:10- and he has flown 185 miles. - Oh, my goodness.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12- He's really gone the extra mile. - He has, he has.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Oh, that's amazing! - So 35 miles more.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19Cody continued to win more prizes

0:14:19 > 0:14:24and by 1913 he was setting his sights on the aviation challenge of the era,

0:14:24 > 0:14:27a non-stop flight across the Atlantic,

0:14:27 > 0:14:31an extraordinary feat many thought impossible.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33Sadly, Cody would never get the chance,

0:14:33 > 0:14:37as on the morning of 7 August tragedy struck.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39He's flying at Aldershot.

0:14:39 > 0:14:43He's taking up a famous cricketer, WHB Evans,

0:14:43 > 0:14:49and they're coming down to land and suddenly the wings just fold up

0:14:49 > 0:14:51and the plane plummets to the ground.

0:14:51 > 0:14:55The two of them are thrown out and Evans breaks every bone in his body.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Both are killed instantly.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02And it ends as Cody would like it to end - cleanly and in the air.

0:15:02 > 0:15:08Cody was buried with full honours at Aldershot military cemetery.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12Around 100,000 people paid their respects

0:15:12 > 0:15:16as the celebrated cowboy and amazing aviator was laid to rest.

0:15:16 > 0:15:22And so the world bid farewell to one of its most colourful pioneers.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28Phil, meanwhile, has headed half an hour north to Reading...

0:15:28 > 0:15:30# Fanny... #

0:15:30 > 0:15:33..hoping to uncover something special at his next shop.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35He's meeting Will.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38You must be Will. Phil, Will. Will, Phil. Phil, Will.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41- Please to meet you. - How are you doing?- Not too bad.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- What did this use to be then? - It used to be a old meat depot.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47- My dad used to be a butcher and my grandad.- Well, there we are.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Many people reckon I have it in me.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Well, you're built like a butcher, if you don't mind me saying.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Like a butcher? More like an athlete.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58And it's not long before something else catches Phil's eye.

0:15:58 > 0:16:01I love that. Originally it would have been one of a pair, wouldn't it?

0:16:01 > 0:16:04- Yeah, off a gatepost, I'd imagine. - Yeah.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06What's the ticket price on that one?

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Well, I think the problem with that is it's been here so long

0:16:08 > 0:16:12that we had a bit of sort-out this weekend and it suddenly appeared.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15- Suddenly appeared. Oh, I like this. - So, I think we can...

0:16:15 > 0:16:17If you make me a sensible price...

0:16:17 > 0:16:22- OK.- And I mean sensible. - The trouble with it is

0:16:22 > 0:16:26that a pair would be really, really saleable, wouldn't they? But one...

0:16:26 > 0:16:30But I still think it's quite fun. Would a £20 note buy it?

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Well...

0:16:36 > 0:16:41- If it gets rid of it, I suppose, yeah. Go on, £20.- Oh, go on, then.

0:16:43 > 0:16:48So, that's a hefty lot bought. Now, how about a pig's trough?

0:16:48 > 0:16:50- This is cast-iron, isn't it? - Yep.

0:16:52 > 0:16:56Pre-war. That's got to be the 1920s, I would imagine.

0:16:56 > 0:17:00Cos after a while they made them galvanised, didn't they?

0:17:00 > 0:17:03- Galvanised came in after the war. - How much is that, Will?

0:17:03 > 0:17:04Well, we did have 75 on it.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08But what were you thinking?

0:17:09 > 0:17:12It's going to make 30 - 50 quid at auction, isn't it?

0:17:12 > 0:17:14It might make a little bit more.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17I'd have preferred the 50 to 80, really.

0:17:19 > 0:17:23I've got to give you somewhere between 20 and 25 quid.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25No, I'd have to have a little bit more than that.

0:17:25 > 0:17:2830 quid's my best.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30- Dear, oh, dear.- You got your hand out quick earlier.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32HE SIGHS

0:17:32 > 0:17:35- That's a round 50, isn't it, really? - Yeah. So, I owe you £50 for the two

0:17:35 > 0:17:39and I'm going to put the two as one lot in the auction.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42A great bit of bargaining secures another lot.

0:17:44 > 0:17:49And so the sun sets on a busy day for our road trippers

0:17:49 > 0:17:51and all I can say is, nighty-night.

0:17:55 > 0:17:59The next morning, our dynamic duo are back on the road.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Well, Phil, our last day of shopping.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Do you know, I do think that I've reduced you to my level.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08- What does that mean?- With some of the crud that I've bought.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11Oh, stop it. You don't know me very well. I've always bought crud.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14Do you remember where we started off? Woodworm and rust.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16I'm not really allowed to tell you what I've bought, Phil,

0:18:16 > 0:18:19- but I've bought something with woodworm.- Really?

0:18:19 > 0:18:21- That's my girl.- Just to take us back to the beginning.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24- You see, the Serrell influence is there.- Not always for the good.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31So far, Natasha has three lots - the wooden jardiniere,

0:18:31 > 0:18:35a revolving bookcase and the Scottie dog napkin rings,

0:18:35 > 0:18:39leaving her £80.64 to spend today.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Phil, meanwhile, has bagged himself four lots -

0:18:43 > 0:18:45a children's rocking chair,

0:18:45 > 0:18:47the boat steps,

0:18:47 > 0:18:48a mahogany tray

0:18:48 > 0:18:51and the pig trough and garden ball,

0:18:51 > 0:18:56which means he still has £140.40 to play with.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00First stop of the day

0:19:00 > 0:19:03is the small seaside town of Bognor Regis,

0:19:03 > 0:19:07where Natasha's hunt for more antiques begins. Go, girl!

0:19:08 > 0:19:09- Hello. Good morning. - Hi. Good morning.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13- Hello. Hi, I'm Tasha. - I'm Stephan.- Stephan.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17With owner Stephan's 35 years of antiques expertise,

0:19:17 > 0:19:20he's sure to be harbouring some hidden gems.

0:19:24 > 0:19:27- How cute is your Wemyss pig at the front?- Right.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30- I don't think it is Wemyss though.- Oh, really?

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- I think it's another make.- OK, so in the style of?- In the style of.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34That would be quite nice. Can we have a look?

0:19:34 > 0:19:37Wemyss Ware is probably the most collectable

0:19:37 > 0:19:39and sought after Scottish pottery.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41Ah, a cane.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46Let's have a look. Hook the pig. Hook out the pig.

0:19:46 > 0:19:50This piggy, however, is a piece of Plichta pottery,

0:19:50 > 0:19:54which, though generally inferior in quality to Wemyss, is still popular.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57It's super cute. Look at him face on.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59He's got a bit of a wonky face, doesn't he?

0:19:59 > 0:20:02He doesn't have quite the fine execution of Wemyss, does he?

0:20:02 > 0:20:06- No, he doesn't.- But he does have the look. It's hand-painted, is it not?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08It is hand-painted and no damage.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Oh, Stephan, I think there is a wee bit of damage.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14- I think there's a wee bit of a curly tail option.- Oh, there is.

0:20:14 > 0:20:19- And I'm the one wearing glasses. - I'm just keeping my eyes peeled.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23So, she's really sweet because the little holes in her snout

0:20:23 > 0:20:27are mimicked all the way across her body, her ears, all over the place.

0:20:27 > 0:20:30- Maybe it's for hatpins!- Yes, hatpins.- Oh, cos it's quite big.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32Maybe it is for hatpins.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35I love this! The more I hold it and learn about it, the more I love it.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Now, I've touched it, which means apparently I've got to buy it,

0:20:38 > 0:20:43- but...- We were asking £15, but you pointed out the damage on the tail,

0:20:43 > 0:20:47- so now it's a crisp £10 note. - A £10 note?

0:20:48 > 0:20:49What do you reckon?

0:20:49 > 0:20:51I think I can deal with this little piggy for a tenner.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53- Shall we go for it? - I think you ought to.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Oh, Stephan, that was quick! I wasn't expecting that.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59I'm glad I spotted her. I'm chuffed.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Here's hoping this little piggy makes a profit at auction.

0:21:07 > 0:21:11Philip, meanwhile, is easing into the day, taking a trip to Portsmouth,

0:21:11 > 0:21:16home to one of the most famous warships in the world - HMS Victory.

0:21:16 > 0:21:20Best known for her role in Britain's greatest naval success,

0:21:20 > 0:21:25the Battle of Trafalgar, Victory was the flagship of Admiral Nelson

0:21:25 > 0:21:29and was the vessel where he drew his last breath.

0:21:29 > 0:21:33Philip's meeting curator Andrew Baines to find out more.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36- This room that we're in now, this is Nelson's?- This is Nelson's.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39This is a great cabin, which is divided into four sections.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43His steerage, his anteroom, if you like, the dining place,

0:21:43 > 0:21:46the day cabin, where we are now, and then his bed place.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50- You can just feel history coming out of the walls, can't you?- Yeah.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53- Nelson pacing back and forth. - Oh, just unbelievable.

0:21:54 > 0:21:59In her 34 years of service, Victory fought in five naval battles

0:21:59 > 0:22:03but it was the 1805 defeat of the French and Spanish

0:22:03 > 0:22:07at the Battle of Trafalgar she became most famous for.

0:22:07 > 0:22:11You've got the palatial surroundings that we just left

0:22:11 > 0:22:14for the one person,

0:22:14 > 0:22:17and the other 820 are spread throughout this ship...

0:22:17 > 0:22:19and this is the cooking range?

0:22:19 > 0:22:22For everyone onboard, whether it's Nelson, an admiral,

0:22:22 > 0:22:26or the lowest of the ratings onboard, the boy seamen.

0:22:26 > 0:22:27All the cooking is done here.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31But that just strikes me as being a fairly strange mix, really

0:22:31 > 0:22:36cos we've got a timber wooden ship and a fire in the middle of it.

0:22:36 > 0:22:42Yeah. Well, men need a hot meal, so if you look, the stove sits on tiles

0:22:42 > 0:22:44and we're very careful.

0:22:44 > 0:22:48This is the only place you're allowed fire onboard the ship,

0:22:48 > 0:22:52but actually on the morning of the battle, this had been dismantled

0:22:52 > 0:22:56so there's no hot meal and the guys fight the Battle of Trafalgar

0:22:56 > 0:23:02- on a lunch meal of raw pork and wine.- Oh, great.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06Food is incredibly important as a part of morale

0:23:06 > 0:23:10so everybody onboard gets exactly the same ration.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Nelson's advantage is, as a man of some means,

0:23:14 > 0:23:17he is able to supplement that ration,

0:23:17 > 0:23:21so he will bring onboard his own pantry of stores, if you like.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24However, the men here can do just the same.

0:23:24 > 0:23:27You eat and live as part of a mess, as four, six or eight men.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29You'll pay into a kitty

0:23:29 > 0:23:33and that kitty will be used to buy things like mustard and spices,

0:23:33 > 0:23:36and indeed live animals you might choose to bring onboard

0:23:36 > 0:23:38that are YOUR animal

0:23:38 > 0:23:41that you will then slaughter and eat as you go through.

0:23:41 > 0:23:44To keep up with the hard physical work onboard,

0:23:44 > 0:23:49each crew member consumed around 5,000 calories a day,

0:23:49 > 0:23:52a good portion of which came from alcohol.

0:23:52 > 0:23:59These chaps are getting about half a pint of rum

0:23:59 > 0:24:02per man per day, when we're on rum,

0:24:02 > 0:24:08and the proof of their rum is about double what we call strong now.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10So it's firewater.

0:24:10 > 0:24:16On the 21 October 1805, Nelson led the British fleet

0:24:16 > 0:24:19into battle against the French and Spanish.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23It was 27 vessels versus 33.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27Some 1,700 British men were killed or wounded

0:24:27 > 0:24:31including the great Nelson himself, who was shot on the quarterdeck.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34Below deck, the ship's surgeon, Mr Beatty,

0:24:34 > 0:24:37knew Nelson wouldn't survive.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40Captain Hardy came to bid his Admiral farewell.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42He knows he's going to die.

0:24:42 > 0:24:46He could really, although he's surrounded by people, be very alone.

0:24:46 > 0:24:51He craves human touch and that's why he says, "Kiss me, Hardy."

0:24:51 > 0:24:54And Hardy bends and kisses him on the forehead,

0:24:54 > 0:24:56stands up, then actually goes down,

0:24:56 > 0:24:58bends and kisses him on the cheek this time

0:24:58 > 0:25:02before apparently, overcome with emotion, he leaves the scene.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Not long afterwards, Nelson died.

0:25:07 > 0:25:13With Nelson's death... He must have been a national hero before,

0:25:13 > 0:25:17and afterwards he must have almost achieved superstar status.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20The funeral is huge.

0:25:20 > 0:25:24It's the biggest state funeral ever to take place up until that time

0:25:24 > 0:25:29and the funeral procession is so long that it leaves Whitehall

0:25:29 > 0:25:33and Nelson's body arrives at St Paul's Cathedral

0:25:33 > 0:25:36before the rest of the procession has finished leaving Whitehall.

0:25:36 > 0:25:37It's that big.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43In 1922, HMS Victory was placed into dry dock.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Millions have since flocked to visit

0:25:45 > 0:25:48the oldest commissioned warship in the world

0:25:48 > 0:25:52and remember one of Britain's greatest heroes,

0:25:52 > 0:25:53Admiral Nelson.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59Our pair have reunited to make their way to Birdham,

0:25:59 > 0:26:02where they'll share their final shopping experience of this Road Trip

0:26:02 > 0:26:04at Whitestone Farm Antiques.

0:26:04 > 0:26:09- Here we are. This is off the beaten track.- It is indeedy-doody.

0:26:09 > 0:26:15- OK, let's do it. Our last items. - This is sad, isn't it?- Ugh, what?

0:26:17 > 0:26:19Here we go. I'm ready for it, Phil, are you?

0:26:19 > 0:26:23- Well, my eyes are watering, but, yeah, let's go.- Come on.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26- Our final foray. - Come on, darling, after you.

0:26:26 > 0:26:29- Hello, you must be Jo.- I am Jo. - I'm Tasha. Lovely to meet you.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33- Hi, Tasha.- Jo, we met before. How are you?- Philip! Great to see you. - Yeah, you too.- Oh, no, a reunion.

0:26:33 > 0:26:37- Does that mean he's going to get a better deal than I am? - Just old friends, old friends.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40- Never. You're much prettier. - That's not hard, is it? To be fair.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42- Are you going to take that? - I can't argue with him, really.

0:26:44 > 0:26:46Packed to the rafters with goodies.

0:26:46 > 0:26:50So, what's going to tickle Natasha's fancy in here then?

0:26:50 > 0:26:51Let's have a look.

0:26:51 > 0:26:55OK, so, ghouls to the front. They're not hand-painted, right? They're transferred on.

0:26:55 > 0:26:59- No, it's transfer, but... - Is the colour done by hand? - ..hand-painted over the top.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01OK, so hand-finished I guess we can say.

0:27:01 > 0:27:03So, I'm not so up on Carlton Ware

0:27:03 > 0:27:07but that looks like a post-1930s mark, doesn't it? It's quite crisp.

0:27:07 > 0:27:11This is very 1930s but of course it could be as late as 1950.

0:27:11 > 0:27:15Oh, look! "A Dorset Litany. From ghoulies & ghosties..."

0:27:15 > 0:27:19Ah! "..and long leggetty beasties

0:27:19 > 0:27:23"and things that go bump in the night - Good Lord deliver us."

0:27:23 > 0:27:27- That's got a real nice Scottish feel to it.- It does.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29Ghoulies and ghosties. Oh, my goodness.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31I've met a few of those up north, believe me.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34It's marked up at £50, which scares me a little bit.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38Not as much as the ghoulies and ghosties, which are terrifying.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42- Do you want a tempting price though? - A tempting price? Oh, I don't know.

0:27:42 > 0:27:43How tempting?

0:27:43 > 0:27:48- 30?- 30. That's quite a chunk off. that is a very generous offer, Jo.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52Phil is just eavesdropping. He's so bad!

0:27:52 > 0:27:55What if I made you a cheeky offer, and it is really cheeky

0:27:55 > 0:27:59but it's my last chance to be cheeky, of £20?

0:27:59 > 0:28:01- £20.- What would you do?

0:28:03 > 0:28:05- 25 and it's yours.- 25 and it's mine?

0:28:05 > 0:28:09I'm going to put it down carefully and say, "Jo, thank you so much."

0:28:09 > 0:28:12Because at £25 it does have a real chance, doesn't it?

0:28:12 > 0:28:14I think it's got a real good chance.

0:28:14 > 0:28:19Well, it won't be long before we find out. Now, has Phil found anything?

0:28:21 > 0:28:25That could be quite interesting, couldn't it? Actually...

0:28:27 > 0:28:33No, it couldn't be. As tables go, that's not what you're looking for.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35No, indeed.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37Those leather chairs look a bit more stable though.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41When you're looking at a chair, you just need to make sure

0:28:41 > 0:28:44that there's no breaks. People lean back on chairs,

0:28:44 > 0:28:48particularly people of my size lean back on chairs,

0:28:48 > 0:28:52and if you lean back on a chair, it breaks there.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54So, whenever you look at a chair, you want to make sure

0:28:54 > 0:28:56that there's no breaks just there

0:28:56 > 0:28:59cos that is just not a good thing.

0:28:59 > 0:29:00I quite like these.

0:29:01 > 0:29:07The pair have a ticket price of £110 but generous Jo has indicated

0:29:07 > 0:29:10he'd be willing to drop to 60. Wow.

0:29:10 > 0:29:15I know that you've said these at 60. 60, that is too much for me.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17Can you come down any more at all?

0:29:18 > 0:29:21Cos I want to try and buy something off you

0:29:21 > 0:29:22and I really, really like these.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26I've also got another question to ask you.

0:29:26 > 0:29:27If I buy them, have you got any polish?

0:29:27 > 0:29:30Cos I just want to try and...

0:29:30 > 0:29:32- As long as you don't want me to do them.- No, I'll do it!

0:29:32 > 0:29:34I'll do it. But at auction I see these...

0:29:34 > 0:29:37What do you think these would make at auction honestly?

0:29:37 > 0:29:39- 40-60.- OK.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42Easily 40-60.

0:29:42 > 0:29:47Can you do them for 40 and a bit of polish and I'll shake your hand?

0:29:47 > 0:29:51How about 50 and a bit of polish? I'll even help you if you like.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54No, no, I'll do it on my own. 45 and I'll do it myself.

0:29:54 > 0:29:58- Go on, then.- You're a gentleman, Jo. Thank you very much indeed.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04Another lot bought and Phil's putting in a bit of elbow grease

0:30:04 > 0:30:05to prepare them for the auction.

0:30:07 > 0:30:12The thing is, you've got to remember that leather

0:30:12 > 0:30:15is a bit like me really, it needs feeding.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18Thanks for the insight, Phil.

0:30:18 > 0:30:23With that last buy, it means our Road Trippers are all bought up.

0:30:23 > 0:30:26Natasha spent £120 on five lots.

0:30:26 > 0:30:28The wooden cellarette,

0:30:28 > 0:30:30a revolving bookcase,

0:30:30 > 0:30:33the Scottie dog napkin rings,

0:30:33 > 0:30:35a piggy hatpin holder

0:30:35 > 0:30:37and the ghoulish Carlton mug.

0:30:39 > 0:30:43Phil spent £230 buying the children's rocking chair,

0:30:43 > 0:30:45the boat steps,

0:30:45 > 0:30:46a mahogany tray,

0:30:46 > 0:30:49the pig trough and garden ball,

0:30:49 > 0:30:52and the pair of newly buffed up leather chairs.

0:30:55 > 0:30:59What do they make of each other's lots?

0:30:59 > 0:31:01I'm going to bow to Tasha's knowledge

0:31:01 > 0:31:03with that Carlton Ware mug.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07I think it's a cool thing but at £25, it might be a problem.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10But if it's rare, it should just see it through.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14On the very last leg, Phil had to buy something salvage,

0:31:14 > 0:31:15he had to do it, and he's come away

0:31:15 > 0:31:19with a huge spherical gate finial and a pig's trough.

0:31:19 > 0:31:23My pig item is a little ceramic dainty thing, his is a pig's trough.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26It just explains the difference between Phil and I

0:31:26 > 0:31:28and why opposites attract.

0:31:29 > 0:31:32After starting this leg in Eversley,

0:31:32 > 0:31:34they're now hurtling towards

0:31:34 > 0:31:37their final destination, Salisbury.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40You are a such a fake grump!

0:31:40 > 0:31:44You're the fakest grump I've ever met in my entire life.

0:31:44 > 0:31:45No, I like being miserable.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49And you're just like, "Oh, I'm Philip Serrell. I'm so grumpy.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52"I'm in Malvern. Come and sell your Worcester with me

0:31:52 > 0:31:55"because I'm a grumpy man." No, you're not.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58- You are the nicest guy of all time. - Oh, get out of here.

0:31:58 > 0:31:59Let's swiftly move on.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03I think, "infectious, bubbly Natasha".

0:32:03 > 0:32:06- That's what I'm going to miss.- I'm not infectious. That sounds awful!

0:32:06 > 0:32:10- I sound contagious!- You are because you've actually made me smile.

0:32:11 > 0:32:15On that bombshell, it's auction time.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20The final sale is taking place at Netherhampton Salerooms.

0:32:21 > 0:32:25Presiding over today's events is Richard Petty.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27What does he make of our experts' lots?

0:32:27 > 0:32:28Revolving bookcase.

0:32:28 > 0:32:33It's an interesting 1970s upgrade with the casters on the bottom,

0:32:33 > 0:32:35which may put some people off.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37£80-£100 perhaps, but it needs a bit of work.

0:32:37 > 0:32:41I would buy the pig trough because I think it's an interesting piece.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44It would look absolutely fabulous in my garden for the plants.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46Sadly, I have no pigs.

0:32:46 > 0:32:52Some good buys on both sides then. Right, on with the auction.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55- Ah, Philip.- Here we go then. - Here we go.

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Here we go indeed. First up - Phil's mahogany tray.

0:33:01 > 0:33:05I'll start the bidding at £10. At £10, £10, £10, £10...

0:33:05 > 0:33:08£12, 15, 18, £20

0:33:08 > 0:33:1122, 25 from me. 25 my bid.

0:33:11 > 0:33:1328. I've got 30.

0:33:13 > 0:33:1732, 35, 38, £40 from me.

0:33:17 > 0:33:1945 and I'm out. 45, 45, 45...

0:33:19 > 0:33:21- 45!- You were bang on. - ..In the room then at 45.

0:33:21 > 0:33:25Anybody else? Being sold this time at £45.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27- GAVEL BANGS - Oh! Phil, that's excellent!

0:33:29 > 0:33:32First lot and he's pulled in a profit. Well done, Philip.

0:33:33 > 0:33:36- That is a good start.- Yeah.

0:33:37 > 0:33:40Can Natasha's ghoulish mug keep up the profits?

0:33:42 > 0:33:46At £12 I've got. 15, 18, 20, 22,

0:33:46 > 0:33:49- 25. I'm out. 28...- Oh, yay!- ..£30.

0:33:49 > 0:33:53£30. 32? 32. 35?

0:33:53 > 0:33:57- 35.- Oh.- Another for you? 38. - Oh, keen crowd!

0:33:57 > 0:34:00£40, 42, 42.

0:34:00 > 0:34:0245. Gentleman's bid then at 45.

0:34:02 > 0:34:0748. On my left at 48. Anyone else want to join in?

0:34:07 > 0:34:11At 48. Being sold this time then at £48.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13GAVEL BANGS By Jove!

0:34:13 > 0:34:16That's some profit on the mug. Nicely done, Natasha.

0:34:18 > 0:34:23But will her Bakelite Scottie dog napkin holders prove as popular?

0:34:24 > 0:34:26Maybe they'll fly and do really well.

0:34:26 > 0:34:30- Who's got 10? Thank you, £10 I've got.- 10!- £10, £10, £10, £10...

0:34:30 > 0:34:33- Who else wants it? £12. - I want them. I want them.

0:34:33 > 0:34:38- 15, 18...- Yay!- ..£20. At £20. Gentleman's bid at £20.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40- Oh, I want them.- £20, £20, 20. Anyone else want them at 20?

0:34:40 > 0:34:44Shout if we don't see you. Being sold this time then at £20.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- GAVEL BANGS - Relax! Ooh! Yes!

0:34:46 > 0:34:50The Scottie doggies have done our Scottish lass proud.

0:34:52 > 0:34:56That's good. That's good, that's good, that's good. Double the money.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59- Yeah.- Right, Phil, the battle is well and truly on.

0:34:59 > 0:35:01Up next is your set of boat steps.

0:35:03 > 0:35:04I've got three lots of instructions.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06I'm going to start the bidding at...

0:35:06 > 0:35:11- £40.- Ooh.- £40 I've got. £40, £40, £40, £40...

0:35:11 > 0:35:1545. I've got 50. 55. I've got 60.

0:35:15 > 0:35:17Another one for you? 65. I've got 70.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20- 70...- You know, that's a result, as far as I'm concerned.

0:35:20 > 0:35:23Oh, keep going. Someone's got to come in. Got to.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26Last chance. Being sold this time then at £70.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29- GAVEL BANGS - Oh, Phil, that was close!

0:35:29 > 0:35:32Ah, a bit of a loss there.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35Someone in Salisbury got a great deal.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38Natasha's still in pole position at this auction.

0:35:38 > 0:35:42Can she edge further ahead with the piggy hatpin holder?

0:35:42 > 0:35:45- £10 I have. £10, £10, £12... - That's because of the...

0:35:45 > 0:35:49- ..15, 18...- Oh! Get in! - ..20, 22, 25, 28.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51- I'm out.- Oh, don't be out.

0:35:51 > 0:35:55- £30. 32...- I'm in trouble here. - ..35, 38?

0:35:55 > 0:35:59- I'm in trouble.- £40, 42... - I really am in trouble here.

0:35:59 > 0:36:02..45, 48, £50.

0:36:02 > 0:36:06£50. Lady's bid then at £50. Anyone else at 50? Your last chance.

0:36:06 > 0:36:10- Being sold this time then at £50. - GAVEL BANGS

0:36:10 > 0:36:13- Yes, madam! - # There may be trouble ahead. #

0:36:14 > 0:36:16You could well be right, Phil.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19A fantastic return on that little piggy.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23The bookcase is up next.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26- It's nice.- I like it because... - And the people round here

0:36:26 > 0:36:29are forward planning. Bonfire Night is not that far away.

0:36:32 > 0:36:36- Unbelievable.- 100? 70 or 80? 50 if we have to. It's here to be sold.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39- Who's got 50? Thank you.- Yes! - £50 I have. £50, £50, £50...

0:36:39 > 0:36:42- I just cannot believe that. - ..£50, £50, £50, £50...

0:36:42 > 0:36:44Join in when you're ready but be very, very quick. 55.

0:36:44 > 0:36:47- 55?- That chap thought he said 15.

0:36:47 > 0:36:53..£70, 75, £80, 85, 85...

0:36:53 > 0:36:58- Are you OK?- ..85. Don't think tomorrow. Tomorrow will be too late.

0:36:58 > 0:37:0385. 85. Anybody else? Being sold this time then at £85.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05GAVEL BANGS

0:37:05 > 0:37:09Fantastic! Now that's a profit!

0:37:09 > 0:37:10That is a top job, isn't it?

0:37:10 > 0:37:13I'm so glad that someone else saw what I saw in it, Phil.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16Someone else had the vision that you just simply lack.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19Yeah. I'm going to go get all the books out and start again, I think.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Well done, you. Well done, you.

0:37:21 > 0:37:25Right, Phil, if you've any chance of winning this leg,

0:37:25 > 0:37:29you need to make a profit with your pig trough and garden ball.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32Would it have been useful if you'd had two gate finials, do you reckon?

0:37:32 > 0:37:35I would never have bought them. They'd be a couple hundred pounds.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37- Too logical.- What do you want with one finial?

0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Who's ever going to buy one finial? - I don't know.- Except me.

0:37:40 > 0:37:43Is there a guy with half a house or...?

0:37:43 > 0:37:45So, with the instructions I've been given,

0:37:45 > 0:37:47I need to start the bidding at £35.

0:37:47 > 0:37:4935 I've got. 35, 35, 40.

0:37:49 > 0:37:5545, 50, 55, 60, 65 with me.

0:37:55 > 0:37:5965. The bid's with me at 65. How's the phone looking, Gem?

0:37:59 > 0:38:02- 65.- I think he's got the speaking clock. I think he's gone out.

0:38:02 > 0:38:06- Oh, they're out. They're out. - 65. Is he back in yet?

0:38:06 > 0:38:09- He's gone out.- Oh, no, he's gone out to the shops!

0:38:09 > 0:38:11He shakes his head. At £65.

0:38:11 > 0:38:15- 70.- New bidder!- 75, 80. Now I'm out.

0:38:15 > 0:38:1880 in the seats then. £80. 80, your last chance.

0:38:18 > 0:38:22Anybody else? Being sold this time then at £80.

0:38:22 > 0:38:25- GAVEL BANGS - Phil!

0:38:25 > 0:38:28- That was good, that. - That is so good. £80.

0:38:28 > 0:38:33Phil's random garden lot has put him back in the game. Great stuff!

0:38:33 > 0:38:35- This is getting exciting. - It is, isn't it?

0:38:37 > 0:38:39Edge of your seat stuff here.

0:38:39 > 0:38:43Can Phil bag another profit with his pair of buffed up leather chairs?

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Who's got £20 then? Here to be sold. Who's got 20?

0:38:48 > 0:38:52How many? 10? Thank you. £10 I have. £10, £10, £12, 15,

0:38:52 > 0:38:56- 18, £20, 22, 25... - It's all go, it's all go. 25.

0:38:56 > 0:39:00- ..28, £30. £30 I have then. - Phil, it's getting there.

0:39:00 > 0:39:05- 32, 35, 38, £40...- Slowly but surely.- It's like pulling teeth.

0:39:05 > 0:39:0842? 42? What a shame. 42. Anybody else got 42?

0:39:08 > 0:39:11- One more.- Last chance on this lot. Being sold at 42...

0:39:11 > 0:39:13- One more. Help this man break even. - GAVEL BANGS

0:39:13 > 0:39:16- Yours, sir. - I'm so disappointed with that

0:39:16 > 0:39:19after all that effort I put in polishing the wretched things.

0:39:19 > 0:39:23Aw, hard luck. But it's only a little loss so your elbow grease

0:39:23 > 0:39:25wasn't an entire waste of time.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30And now for Natasha's final lot.

0:39:31 > 0:39:36The romance of a cellarette is going to set this saleroom on fire.

0:39:36 > 0:39:39At £30 I've got. £30, £30, £30, £30...

0:39:39 > 0:39:4332, 35, 38, £40.

0:39:43 > 0:39:47- £40, £40...- Come on. No, no, no! - Anybody else want in at £40?

0:39:47 > 0:39:49- Last chance 40...- I need one more.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51- No, I don't. Drop the hammer. - No, no, no, no.

0:39:51 > 0:39:55- £40!- Aw, no!- Drop the hammer. - GAVEL BANGS

0:39:55 > 0:39:58A small loss there, but Natasha's still in the lead.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00There doesn't seem any justice really

0:40:00 > 0:40:03that that was probably worth a bit more than that, wasn't it?

0:40:03 > 0:40:05It was worth more but I have to take the rough with the smooth

0:40:05 > 0:40:09- cos so many things today have made money that I did not expect to make money.- Yeah.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12Yeah. Talking of making money, to win this auction,

0:40:12 > 0:40:16Phil will need a romping result on the rocking chair.

0:40:16 > 0:40:18Tenner for you, sir, thank you. £10 I have...

0:40:18 > 0:40:21- It's started.- 15, 18, 20, 22,

0:40:21 > 0:40:2525, 28, 28, 28.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27I have £30.

0:40:27 > 0:40:31£30. First bid has it at £30. £30. Last chance...

0:40:31 > 0:40:3532. 32. Anybody else at 32? Your last chance on this lot.

0:40:35 > 0:40:40£32. Anyone else? Being sold then at £32...

0:40:40 > 0:40:42GAVEL BANGS

0:40:42 > 0:40:44- Aaah!- Aaah! - THEY LAUGH

0:40:45 > 0:40:50So, there we have it. This week-long Road Trip ends on a profit.

0:40:50 > 0:40:51Marvellous.

0:40:51 > 0:40:54What a brilliant week we've had, haven't we?

0:40:54 > 0:40:56It's been so good. It's been so good.

0:40:56 > 0:40:59- Shall we go outside and have a little cry?- Yeah, who's driving?

0:40:59 > 0:41:04- The winner.- Oh, really?- The winner drives us off. Come on, Philip.

0:41:04 > 0:41:07Well, we'd better find out who that winner is then.

0:41:08 > 0:41:14Natasha began with £165.64 and after paying auction costs

0:41:14 > 0:41:20she's made a pretty profit of £79.26, making her today's winner,

0:41:20 > 0:41:25with a final total of £244.90.

0:41:27 > 0:41:33Phil started with £325.40. After paying auction costs,

0:41:33 > 0:41:37he suffered a little loss of £9.42.

0:41:37 > 0:41:41This means he may have lost this leg, but he's won the trip

0:41:41 > 0:41:46with a fabulous final tally of £315.98.

0:41:46 > 0:41:47Well done, old bean.

0:41:47 > 0:41:50All profits go to Children in Need.

0:41:50 > 0:41:54- Oh, Phil, well done! - Well, yeah, but you won the evening.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57It doesn't matter. The winner overall drives away.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59- Oh, come on, then. - I've just got to sit here and cry

0:41:59 > 0:42:01- in the passenger seat. - SHE LAUGHS

0:42:01 > 0:42:05No tears, no tears. It's too good. It's too good!

0:42:05 > 0:42:09# Thank you for being a friend

0:42:10 > 0:42:13# Travelled down a road and back again... #

0:42:14 > 0:42:18What a week it's been for a perfect new partnership.

0:42:18 > 0:42:21- There have been highs... - That's a bit exciting.

0:42:21 > 0:42:25You and I can be Tom Cruise and Kelly McGillis.

0:42:25 > 0:42:26..and lows.

0:42:26 > 0:42:30I find your constant smiling, cheerfulness

0:42:30 > 0:42:33and happiness absolutely wears me out.

0:42:35 > 0:42:37Oh, Phil!
