The nation's favourite antiques experts, £200 and one big challenge.

0:00:020:00:05

Testing, testing.

0:00:050:00:07

Who can make the most money buying and selling antiques as they scour the UK?

0:00:070:00:11

Lord above.

0:00:110:00:13

The aim is to trade up and hope each antique turns a profit.

0:00:130:00:16

But it's not as easy as it sounds and there can only be one winner.

0:00:160:00:20

What a dilemma.

0:00:200:00:21

So will it be the highway to success or the B road to bankruptcy?

0:00:210:00:26

If I wasn't in your car, I'd let your tyres down.

0:00:260:00:28

This is the Antiques Road Trip.

0:00:280:00:31

On the road this week, antiques stalwarts David Barby and Philip Serrell.

0:00:370:00:43

They're driving their newly-christened 1971 Morris Minor convertible.

0:00:430:00:48

Come on, Amy. God bless you, my love.

0:00:480:00:50

Valuer and auctioneer David Barby has a specialist knowledge of porcelain.

0:00:500:00:57

He's also very persuasive when it comes to buying.

0:00:570:01:02

-Is that the very best?

-That's it.

0:01:020:01:04

Self-made man Philip Serrell is also an auctioneer and a valuer.

0:01:040:01:09

He runs his own successful business and has a keen eye for the unusual.

0:01:090:01:15

Sounds like David Barby breathing, doesn't it?

0:01:150:01:17

Both experts started the week with a £200 float.

0:01:170:01:22

After buying treasures galore, they went head-to-head at auction in Leicester.

0:01:220:01:26

-You have done really well with that.

-Give me a kiss.

0:01:260:01:30

Now what's in their purses is a different story.

0:01:320:01:36

David got off to a cracking start.

0:01:390:01:42

He's transformed his original £200 into £252.59.

0:01:420:01:47

Philip wasn't so lucky.

0:01:490:01:51

His £200 hasn't worked quite so hard.

0:01:510:01:54

He begins today's show with just £223.57.

0:01:540:01:58

It's the start of a new day and the chaps are already on the road.

0:02:000:02:05

This week's road trip, a veritable fling

0:02:090:02:12

from Lincoln to Wotton-Under-Edge,

0:02:120:02:14

taking in Norfolk and Suffolk along the way.

0:02:140:02:17

Today's leg begins with our gents casting off from Leicester.

0:02:170:02:21

Then they'll head east to Aylsham in Norfolk for an auction showdown.

0:02:210:02:25

The first pin in the map - Sileby.

0:02:250:02:29

Nice Victorian villas along here. Not a bad village.

0:02:290:02:32

It's very pretty but with a bit of a gruesome past.

0:02:340:02:38

The Sileby murder of 1903 saw a young policeman shot

0:02:380:02:43

by two drunken ruffians, later sentenced to death for their crime.

0:02:430:02:48

Ooh!

0:02:480:02:49

But that's not put David off, as he's set to go shopping.

0:02:490:02:54

Look, there we are.

0:02:540:02:55

There's the antique shop.

0:02:550:02:58

Try and be too long. You don't have long left at your age.

0:02:580:03:01

-Go on, get out of here.

-Bye-bye.

0:03:010:03:03

See you, Barbs.

0:03:030:03:04

On the first leg of the trip, David triumphed thanks to his quick decision making.

0:03:070:03:12

Will he be doing the same today?

0:03:120:03:15

I have to look very carefully. I'm not going to make an immediate decision.

0:03:150:03:20

Initially when you see dolls like this,

0:03:200:03:23

you think more of bric-a-brac than serious antiques.

0:03:230:03:26

You can go in, David.

0:03:260:03:29

So where's all the treasure?

0:03:290:03:30

-At the back? Dotted around.

-Dotted, really. A bit of Arts and Crafts.

0:03:300:03:34

There's a tray there that could do with some love.

0:03:340:03:39

Created using a technique called repousser,

0:03:390:03:42

which is French for "to push back",

0:03:420:03:45

a relief design is made by hammering out

0:03:450:03:48

the reverse side of a metal surface, in this case copper.

0:03:480:03:51

This late-19th century tray is from the Arts and Crafts period

0:03:510:03:56

where traditional forms of craftsmanship were lauded.

0:03:560:04:00

This was probably done at a small studio

0:04:000:04:03

or it might have been done at night school.

0:04:030:04:06

It has a very sort of William Morris look about it. That's rather nice.

0:04:060:04:11

When it's polished up...

0:04:110:04:13

Mind you, it'll take a lot of hard work polishing it up, particularly on this.

0:04:130:04:18

Oops. But I think it'll be worth it.

0:04:180:04:20

If David cleans away all that dirt,

0:04:200:04:22

there's no knowing what the old devil might find behind.

0:04:220:04:25

-How much is that?

-It's a tenner to you.

0:04:250:04:28

A tenner? Goodness me. Is that the very, very best?

0:04:280:04:32

-It could be seven to you, David.

-What about five?

0:04:320:04:35

David, you're notoriously hard, but yes.

0:04:350:04:38

£5. Oh, I think that's quite good.

0:04:380:04:41

-I think it's all right.

-Yes.

0:04:410:04:43

I said I wasn't going to make an immediate decision!

0:04:430:04:46

With a price like that, David, it would be rude not to!

0:04:460:04:50

Meanwhile, Philip is still on the road.

0:04:540:04:57

He's heading six miles to Loughborough,

0:04:570:05:00

the second largest settlement in Leicestershire.

0:05:000:05:02

This was the destination of the first package tour in 1841,

0:05:020:05:08

organised by a Thomas Cook for a temperance group from Leicester.

0:05:080:05:13

It's also home to some rather nice antique shops.

0:05:130:05:17

Hi, how are you? All right?

0:05:170:05:19

Richard is a jewellery specialist,

0:05:190:05:21

so Philip needs a keen eye if he wants something in that category.

0:05:210:05:26

A seal. Can I have a look at that?

0:05:260:05:28

So what you do, you have all the different seals and waxes here.

0:05:280:05:31

Lucky clover on the end as well.

0:05:310:05:35

Dating back to ancient times, seals were adopted by royalty,

0:05:350:05:40

the Church and the law, and by individuals.

0:05:400:05:43

Personal seals bore a crest or coat of arms,

0:05:430:05:46

and were often inlayed into a signet ring.

0:05:460:05:48

This decorative seal comes with a variety of waxes and a candle to melt them.

0:05:480:05:54

It's probably from the 1950s and priced at £15.

0:05:540:05:58

What I am trying to do is start sowing the seed of doubt

0:05:580:06:01

in my new best friend Richard's mind

0:06:010:06:03

as to how little this is really worth.

0:06:030:06:06

-I can feel one of my headaches coming on.

-They're catching, aren't they?

0:06:060:06:10

I think that's quite nice.

0:06:100:06:11

I had one in my saleroom not that long ago. It made six quid.

0:06:110:06:16

If I can put that with something else, there's a bit of mileage in that.

0:06:160:06:20

Back in Sileby, David's getting all pumped up

0:06:210:06:25

about another pretty item belonging to dealer Peter Stratton.

0:06:250:06:30

This is an atomiser.

0:06:300:06:32

You put perfume in there and this is a pump action.

0:06:320:06:35

So you don't have one of those rubber things, you just...

0:06:350:06:38

pump it away.

0:06:380:06:39

In 1888, an atomiser was first developed to dispense medicine.

0:06:400:06:46

By the early 1900s, they were adapted to spray perfume

0:06:460:06:50

and were highly sought-after by elegant women.

0:06:500:06:52

This one from the 1930s is a mix of sterling silver and cut glass

0:06:520:06:58

formed into the shape of a cushion.

0:06:580:07:01

The question is, will Peter be slashing down that price

0:07:010:07:04

just like the copper tray?

0:07:040:07:06

How much is that?

0:07:060:07:08

Is that a fiver?

0:07:080:07:10

-Can't see any mark on it.

-It's sterling, isn't it?

0:07:100:07:14

-Is it sterling?

-Yes, it's marked.

0:07:140:07:16

Ah, so it's not...

0:07:160:07:17

It's not hallmarked, no. I think that's probably more than a fiver.

0:07:170:07:21

I should say so, Peter.

0:07:210:07:23

After all, it's all about making a profit, surely?

0:07:230:07:27

I sense your disappointment at a tenner.

0:07:270:07:30

Is it possibly a little bit less than £10?

0:07:300:07:33

-It's a huge mistake, but it's a fiver.

-OK. Sold.

0:07:330:07:37

Thank you very much, David.

0:07:370:07:39

We shall wrap it for you.

0:07:390:07:41

Nice one, David.

0:07:410:07:42

Something else has caught Philip's eye.

0:07:420:07:47

Could I have a look at that little thing there, please?

0:07:470:07:49

It's a little brass-bound pen wipe.

0:07:490:07:53

You'd get your pen, dip it into your ink and write.

0:07:530:07:56

Then you'd wipe the surplus.

0:07:560:07:58

Just wipe it along there like that.

0:07:580:08:00

People collect writing accoutrements,

0:08:000:08:03

they collect pens, blotters. All sorts of things.

0:08:030:08:06

The early steel pen had a point that dipped into an inkwell.

0:08:060:08:11

As they often dripped, nib or pen wipes were a necessity.

0:08:110:08:15

These were anything from a circle out of cut cloth

0:08:150:08:20

or stuffed fabric animals,

0:08:200:08:22

or brushes like this one from 1900, priced at £10.

0:08:220:08:27

I think that, if I can put it with that little desk set,

0:08:270:08:30

I might be able to make an interesting lot.

0:08:300:08:32

As in everything, it's all down to pounds, shillings and pence.

0:08:320:08:36

Your desk set,

0:08:360:08:39

and your little ink blotter and ink wiper.

0:08:390:08:42

I would estimate those at £10-£20 at auction.

0:08:420:08:45

I'm going to be really mean and horrible.

0:08:450:08:47

Can I give you a fiver for the two?

0:08:470:08:50

-No.

-What can I give you for the two?

0:08:500:08:52

12. I'll settle at 12.

0:08:520:08:54

-That ran off his tongue so quickly, didn't it?

-12.

0:08:540:08:58

-I can't do 12.

-Course you can.

0:08:580:08:59

No, honestly I can't. I haven't got any change for a start.

0:08:590:09:02

Tenner, and that's the end of it.

0:09:020:09:04

Right. We'll settle at a tenner, then.

0:09:040:09:06

Good man. You're a gentleman. Thank you.

0:09:060:09:09

David's next potential purchase is something a little more sporting.

0:09:100:09:14

He's spotted a game of skittles called ninepins.

0:09:140:09:18

You just play away. These are the cheeses

0:09:180:09:21

that you would roll towards them.

0:09:210:09:23

They're not balls, they're not round. They're almost oval.

0:09:230:09:27

Flat like a barrel. So they go in one direction.

0:09:270:09:31

I think they're probably about 40 years old.

0:09:310:09:34

Ninepins has long been played in inns and taverns

0:09:340:09:38

across England and beyond.

0:09:380:09:40

The cheese is so called because any cheese-shaped lump can be thrown at the pins.

0:09:400:09:46

In Germany it was played by monks in the third century.

0:09:460:09:50

It was even banned in America in the 1830s

0:09:500:09:53

because people were slacking off work to play it.

0:09:530:09:56

-I'm going to ask you £15 for the lot.

-Will you take a tenner for them, Peter?

0:09:560:10:00

Yes, of course. Yes, of course.

0:10:000:10:02

You're very obliging, Peter.

0:10:020:10:04

Watch David doesn't take advantage.

0:10:040:10:06

Is that thrown in as well?

0:10:060:10:08

David! You are such a rascal!

0:10:080:10:12

-But you can.

-Thank you.

0:10:120:10:14

Oh, this is wonderful.

0:10:150:10:17

-Oh, that's brill. Peter, thank you very much.

-You're more than welcome.

0:10:170:10:21

Ooh! What a weight.

0:10:210:10:23

But when it comes to paying, Peter has another knock-out price cut.

0:10:230:10:28

Oh, thank you very much.

0:10:280:10:31

That is so generous. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.

0:10:310:10:34

Instead of £10 for the ninepins, David's getting them for half price.

0:10:340:10:39

Jammy so-and-so!

0:10:390:10:40

We ended up having these for £5. Incredible price.

0:10:400:10:45

That was a remarkable little establishment. But you had to explore.

0:10:450:10:49

Back in Loughborough, Philip is taking some time out.

0:10:520:10:54

He's s visiting the historic John Taylor & Company bellfoundry.

0:10:540:10:59

-Hi, how are you?

-Hello. Pleased to meet you.

0:10:590:11:02

Foundry museum manager Alan Berry will ring out the story

0:11:020:11:06

of one of the oldest surviving industries still in existence.

0:11:060:11:11

So what's a foundry?

0:11:110:11:13

A foundry is where they melt metal and cast it into a mould to produce an object.

0:11:130:11:19

-And these are the moulds here?

-These are the moulds.

0:11:190:11:22

# You can ring my bell

0:11:220:11:26

# Ring my bell... #

0:11:260:11:28

The mould for a bell is made of two parts,

0:11:280:11:31

between which molten bronze is poured.

0:11:310:11:34

Once it's cooled, the shape of the bell is created.

0:11:340:11:38

Part of making the inner mould's shape

0:11:380:11:41

is down to some very interesting ingredients.

0:11:410:11:44

-That's red sand, black sand, chopped hay and horse manure.

-Horse manure?

0:11:440:11:50

Any particular horse manure?

0:11:500:11:52

No, it doesn't matter which horse!

0:11:520:11:54

This company, making bells since the 14th century,

0:11:540:11:58

has been in the hands of the Taylor family since 1784.

0:11:580:12:02

Nowadays this is the largest bellfoundry in the world,

0:12:020:12:07

with only one other like it in the UK.

0:12:070:12:09

What would be the biggest bell that you've made?

0:12:090:12:13

Great Paul was the largest bell made here.

0:12:130:12:16

And is that for St Paul's?

0:12:160:12:18

-St Paul's Cathedral.

-How big was that?

-16 tonnes.

0:12:180:12:22

The company's biggest customer is the Church of England,

0:12:220:12:25

including York Minster and Great St Mary's in Cambridge.

0:12:250:12:30

But one of their more unusual clients is rock group AC/DC.

0:12:300:12:34

Their one-tonne bell goes on tour with them all around the world.

0:12:340:12:38

Hell's bells!

0:12:380:12:40

You can feel the heat of that from here. That is really hot.

0:12:400:12:44

Bronze is made out of a mix of copper and tin.

0:12:440:12:47

This liquid is 1,200 degrees Celsius.

0:12:470:12:50

So it's all about being very careful.

0:12:500:12:53

How long does that take before it sets?

0:12:540:12:58

You would want it to cool as much as possible,

0:12:580:13:00

so it may be a few days before we take it out.

0:13:000:13:03

When it comes to the price tag, size matters.

0:13:030:13:07

If you look at a bell that size there,

0:13:070:13:09

are you looking at thousands of pounds, tens of thousands of pounds?

0:13:090:13:14

It would probably cost you eight to ten for a bell that size.

0:13:140:13:18

-But then you have all the other fittings to go with it.

-We'd better look at those.

0:13:180:13:22

The next part of the process is tuning.

0:13:240:13:27

The bell is placed upside down and a lathe cuts metal from the inside.

0:13:270:13:32

This generates five different musical tones.

0:13:320:13:35

Nowadays this is measured by computer, but centuries ago, it was all done by tuning forks.

0:13:360:13:42

With the right tuning fork at the right pitch,

0:13:420:13:46

we strike the fork. You hear the fork.

0:13:460:13:49

AMPLIFIED TONE

0:13:500:13:53

That will energise the bell because it's the right pitch.

0:13:530:13:56

The bellfoundry here produces up to 100 bells a year.

0:13:590:14:02

They also maintain some of the country's most important historic bells in churches,

0:14:020:14:08

towers and cathedrals across the land.

0:14:080:14:12

A little-known fact, that.

0:14:120:14:13

All these things that you go round the countryside looking at

0:14:130:14:17

and you take them for granted.

0:14:170:14:19

All of a sudden it comes alive. I've had a fabulous time.

0:14:190:14:22

I think the horse manure is going to live with me though.

0:14:220:14:25

Oh, yes. Well, that's a good one.

0:14:250:14:27

Now, what of David? He's keen to squeeze in one last shop.

0:14:270:14:33

He's venturing 31 miles east to the town of Stamford in Lincolnshire.

0:14:330:14:39

In 1967, this became the first urban conservation area in England.

0:14:390:14:45

Not surprising considering most of the buildings are made of lovely Lincolnshire limestone.

0:14:450:14:50

Sir Walter Scott described the view of the town

0:14:500:14:53

as the finest between London and Edinburgh,

0:14:530:14:56

while more recently the BBC filmed the costume drama Middlemarch here.

0:14:560:15:01

David's dropping in on one of the town's most well-known

0:15:020:15:05

antiques centres, where over 70 dealers showcase their wares.

0:15:050:15:09

What I'll try and look for is something specific

0:15:090:15:12

like a small item of silver and concentrate on that

0:15:120:15:15

when I go in there, so at least I'm not distracted by porcelain

0:15:150:15:18

or anything else of that ilk.

0:15:180:15:20

On the last leg of the trip, David got lucky

0:15:200:15:22

thanks to a silver pencil case which made him a £55 profit.

0:15:220:15:27

I'm pleased but I'm actually not that pleased for you.

0:15:280:15:31

It looks like he's hoping to repeat that good fortune with something from here.

0:15:310:15:37

Right, what I want to see is one...

0:15:370:15:41

little item here. This is £26.

0:15:410:15:44

Well, this is quite a nice little object.

0:15:440:15:47

It was called a swizzle stick.

0:15:470:15:48

It's silver, it's stamped silver.

0:15:480:15:51

I think possibly continental or even American.

0:15:510:15:53

These prongs, which are retractable,

0:15:530:15:56

you'd use to take the bubbles out of champagne

0:15:560:15:59

or you might want to stir your pink gin.

0:15:590:16:02

Then at the other end you've got a little point which you could use for

0:16:020:16:06

an olive or anything that you'd have to eat at cocktail hour.

0:16:060:16:11

In 1933, engineer Jay Sindler invented the swizzle stick.

0:16:110:16:17

He was looking for a way to get the olive out of his Martini

0:16:170:16:21

without using his fingers.

0:16:210:16:23

In 1935, he was granted a patent.

0:16:230:16:26

Ever since the designs have become more and more elaborate,

0:16:260:16:30

like this very one from the 1940s.

0:16:300:16:33

-What's the very best price, please?

-£20.

-It's £20.

0:16:360:16:39

-Is that your very best?

-18.

0:16:390:16:42

-15?

-Ooh. 16?

0:16:420:16:46

No, £15, please.

0:16:460:16:48

-Painful.

-15.

-You can have it.

0:16:480:16:50

-Thank you very much.

-That's two broken arms I've got!

0:16:500:16:53

As the day draws to a close, that's four items in the bag for David.

0:16:560:17:00

But he'll be keeping that information close to his chest,

0:17:000:17:03

as he and Philip head off for a spot of shut-eye.

0:17:030:17:07

Hello, Philip. How I've missed you.

0:17:070:17:09

Tell me how you got on first.

0:17:090:17:12

-Good day.

-I've had a great day.

-I haven't bought a great deal.

0:17:120:17:15

Liar!

0:17:150:17:16

-Are you ready for this?

-Careful. You've got valuable cargo in here.

0:17:160:17:21

Ohhhh! This poor car.

0:17:210:17:24

Poor Amy.

0:17:240:17:26

Get some rest, gents.

0:17:260:17:28

It's still all to play for tomorrow.

0:17:280:17:31

It's a bright and breezy morning in Lincolnshire,

0:17:310:17:34

but this classic little Morris Minor is more used to David's sedate pace

0:17:340:17:39

than Philip's need for speed.

0:17:390:17:41

Amy, Amy doesn't want to go that fast.

0:17:410:17:45

-Amy is the same speed as you.

-How long is that scarf?

0:17:450:17:48

Long enough to throttle you with.

0:17:480:17:51

David had a blistering, bargain-filled first day.

0:17:510:17:55

He spent just £30 on four items.

0:17:550:17:57

That leaves him a bumper £222.59 to play with.

0:17:570:18:01

While Philip's shopping was a tad more relaxed, he's spent even less.

0:18:010:18:07

£10 on one lot, giving him £213.57 to shop with today.

0:18:070:18:13

Good man. You're a gentleman. Thank you ever so much.

0:18:130:18:16

Philip has got ground to make up, so he's first to the shops.

0:18:160:18:22

Morning.

0:18:220:18:23

Visiting the same antiques centre in which David bought his swizzle stick.

0:18:230:18:28

As ever, Philip sniffs out something with a whiff of the unusual.

0:18:280:18:33

A set of drug jars that have stepped out from a 1920s pharmacy.

0:18:330:18:37

The thing that sells these is the labels on them.

0:18:370:18:40

Here we have spirit of Vini Meth, whatever Vini Meth is.

0:18:400:18:45

Sounds like some sort of... Not Vinnie Jones, is it?

0:18:450:18:47

Vini Meth, or methylated spirits, would have fuelled a lamp burner.

0:18:470:18:51

Calcium chloride was for skin infections,

0:18:510:18:55

while quinine sulphas treated malaria.

0:18:550:18:58

But as to why a pharmacist would have aviation fuel is a bit of a mystery.

0:18:580:19:04

Philip's interested in eight drug jars.

0:19:040:19:07

They can be very collectable.

0:19:070:19:09

Early drug jars that date back to the 17th century that are in pottery

0:19:090:19:15

with wonderful designs on them, they can be £4,000, £5,000, £6,000.

0:19:150:19:19

These aren't going to fall into that bracket.

0:19:190:19:22

Peter, can I ask you a question about these?

0:19:220:19:24

-Yes.

-I've totted them up

0:19:240:19:26

and individually it comes out at £36 or £37.

0:19:260:19:29

We'll go 25 on those.

0:19:290:19:33

-Go on, I'll have them then.

-Quick work, Philip.

0:19:330:19:35

It's not long before he spots another possibility.

0:19:350:19:39

This is quite interesting, because we've got a set of four lignum vitae

0:19:390:19:43

bowls here.

0:19:430:19:46

It's interesting cos these are numbered one, two, three, four,

0:19:460:19:49

and we've got another numbered set here.

0:19:490:19:52

They're a set of four bowls,

0:19:520:19:55

but actually they're not cos what we have are four pairs of bowls.

0:19:550:20:00

So number one and number one are one pair.

0:20:000:20:04

So whoever owns this stall has split them up and shouldn't really.

0:20:040:20:07

These bowls from the 1900s are made of lignum vitae, known as ironwood.

0:20:070:20:14

It was chosen for being hard-wearing and extremely strong.

0:20:140:20:18

For four sets of pairs, the price is £50.

0:20:180:20:22

What can those be bought for?

0:20:220:20:24

We'll say that's 20.

0:20:240:20:25

And those 20? That's 40.

0:20:250:20:28

So what about £35 for all of them?

0:20:280:20:30

-Or £30 for all of them.

-35 for all of them.

0:20:300:20:32

£35? Yeah, I'm going to have those.

0:20:320:20:35

I should argue more but I think those are cheap.

0:20:350:20:38

Mental note, buy smaller things. Lord above!

0:20:380:20:42

While Philip heads further afield to continue his quest for more bargains,

0:20:420:20:48

David's off on an adventure.

0:20:480:20:50

He's travelling eight miles west to Rutland Water.

0:20:500:20:55

This is home to Europe's largest man-made lake.

0:20:550:20:59

-Is this our boat?

-It is.

-Will you show me round?

0:20:590:21:03

-I will, certainly.

-After you.

0:21:030:21:05

Local historian Bryan Waites is taking David across the water

0:21:050:21:09

to find out the incredible story behind the creation of this reservoir.

0:21:090:21:15

In the 1970s, there was a need for water

0:21:150:21:18

in the growing towns of Corby and Peterborough and Northampton.

0:21:180:21:23

So this was one of the most suitable places.

0:21:230:21:26

There was even clay nearby to build the dam

0:21:280:21:31

and the rivers Welland and Nene were close enough to supply the water.

0:21:310:21:36

Were there any farms or villages submerged?

0:21:360:21:39

There were about 16 farms that had to be destroyed, really.

0:21:390:21:43

There were two smaller villages that were affected.

0:21:430:21:47

One disappeared entirely at Lower Hambleton

0:21:470:21:50

and Middle Hambleton half disappeared, really.

0:21:500:21:53

The other location threatened with submergence

0:21:530:21:58

was the stunning Normanton Church.

0:21:580:22:01

It was there for many centuries before the water ever came.

0:22:010:22:05

In order to protect it, they had to half fill it with cement

0:22:050:22:09

because the water level would have flooded the church.

0:22:090:22:13

The floor of the church was raised up to window level.

0:22:130:22:16

Outside, a bank was built to protect the building

0:22:160:22:19

and a new causeway provided access from the shoreline.

0:22:190:22:22

Better to keep it in situ than to move it to another site, I think.

0:22:220:22:27

The majority of what we see today

0:22:270:22:29

was built for the Earl of Ancaster in the 1800s.

0:22:290:22:34

-From a distance it looks so Italian.

-It does, really. Exactly.

0:22:340:22:38

You follow through the Roman architectural detail.

0:22:380:22:42

So you've got the Ionic columns at the bottom and then the Corinthian ones at the top.

0:22:420:22:47

Yes, well spotted.

0:22:470:22:49

Normanton Church was deconsecrated in 1970

0:22:490:22:53

when the trust for its protection was first set up.

0:22:530:22:58

Now a museum, it tells the story

0:22:590:23:02

of the creation of the reservoir, attracting over 30,000 visitors a year.

0:23:020:23:07

It's very, very elegant.

0:23:070:23:08

-Like some Venetian building.

-It is indeed.

0:23:080:23:11

Floating on the water, really.

0:23:110:23:13

Meanwhile, Philip's arrived in Wymondham,

0:23:190:23:21

following a 16 mile journey north from Stamford.

0:23:210:23:25

You've got a fabulous shop here.

0:23:250:23:28

Dealer Tina Bryan has everything from tableware and kitchenalia

0:23:280:23:32

to furniture, stained glass and brass.

0:23:320:23:34

I'm not going to look at price. I'm going to adopt a different policy.

0:23:340:23:38

If I walk round and I just bid you for things, you can either

0:23:380:23:42

throw me out the shop or say, "Well, we might like to talk a bit more."

0:23:420:23:45

I'll have a wander round.

0:23:450:23:47

-Lord above.

-Indeed, Philip.

0:23:490:23:52

Tina's shop is lovely, and judging by her stock, she's got a good eye.

0:23:520:23:56

It could be a struggle to get her to lower her prices though.

0:23:560:24:00

I can see this is going to be quite tough with you, Madam.

0:24:000:24:03

This is like an early vacuum cleaner, isn't it?

0:24:030:24:06

You got hold of that, like that.

0:24:060:24:08

Then you just created a vacuum like that.

0:24:080:24:11

It sounds like David Barby breathing, doesn't it?

0:24:110:24:16

Nice gag, but I don't think it's really for you.

0:24:160:24:19

Time is pushing on.

0:24:190:24:21

-Tina, these are nice, aren't they?

-The saucepans.

0:24:210:24:24

-Bit old hat, aren't they?

-They are.

0:24:240:24:26

-Popular.

-He said old hat, Tina.

0:24:260:24:28

Not must-have.

0:24:280:24:30

Lord above!

0:24:300:24:32

These brass pans are Victorian.

0:24:320:24:35

A modern tip for cleaning pans like these is tomato ketchup.

0:24:350:24:39

Leave it on for 30 minutes and bingo. They come up sparkling.

0:24:390:24:43

Philip's right though, these are not as popular as they used to be.

0:24:430:24:47

At £28 each, he needs to be firm.

0:24:470:24:50

-£10 each.

-On the brass pans?

-Yeah.

0:24:500:24:54

-OK.

-Yeah?

0:24:540:24:56

I want two. Is that all right?

0:24:560:24:57

That's all right. That's fine.

0:24:570:24:59

Ooh, I'll put these by.

0:24:590:25:01

I think Tina's taken pity on you, Philip.

0:25:010:25:05

How they land aircraft with these. It's incredible!

0:25:050:25:08

This is for getting bread out the oven, isn't it?

0:25:080:25:11

-That's right, yes.

-I bet the local pizza parlour could still use this.

0:25:110:25:15

Yeah, I bet they could actually.

0:25:150:25:17

Philip is once again proving he likes to think outside the box.

0:25:170:25:21

He's already bagged the pharmacy jars,

0:25:210:25:24

and on the last leg of the trip it was ostrich eggs from the butchers.

0:25:240:25:28

I think this one's been cut off a bit, hasn't it?

0:25:280:25:32

Maybe it was for a short person.

0:25:320:25:35

What a saleslady. What a girl!

0:25:350:25:37

These are from the 1900s.

0:25:370:25:39

The shovel might be French and would have been vital

0:25:390:25:42

in the making of bread in a boulangerie.

0:25:420:25:45

The rake? Well, ideal for any jobs in the garden, really.

0:25:450:25:49

For the two of them, Tina wants £35.

0:25:490:25:53

Right, one-off deal.

0:25:530:25:54

I'll give you £25 for the two. That's it finished. No more.

0:25:540:25:57

OK, right.

0:25:570:25:59

-That's fair.

-Really?

0:25:590:26:01

-Good girl. Pleased with those.

-There you are.

0:26:010:26:04

You are a good sport, Tina, because Philip's the real rake here, isn't he?

0:26:040:26:08

Ha-ha! Couldn't resist it.

0:26:080:26:10

David and Amy the Morris Minor are enjoying some peace and quiet in the English countryside.

0:26:120:26:17

They're on a quick seven-mile trip to nearby Uppingham.

0:26:170:26:22

It's most famous for its rather spiffing independent school

0:26:220:26:26

and is a market town in Rutland, the smallest county in England.

0:26:260:26:30

David is fitting in one last shop before the chaps reconvene to reveal their wares.

0:26:300:26:36

He's immediately attracted to this.

0:26:360:26:40

This is for drawing lots.

0:26:400:26:42

So you have all the numbers there on the balls.

0:26:420:26:45

You give it a turn like that and you operate something underneath here.

0:26:450:26:50

Out would drop one of the balls.

0:26:500:26:52

That is quite nice. What I like about it, it's all brass

0:26:520:26:56

and it's got its original little lot there.

0:26:560:26:59

This is Edwardian, an era where craftsmanship was all about a quality finish.

0:26:590:27:05

The globe was probably used for drawing lottery numbers locally,

0:27:050:27:09

perhaps at a gentlemen's club, perhaps for prizes or even bingo.

0:27:090:27:14

I like that. Oh, not so keen on the price though.

0:27:140:27:18

That's £195.

0:27:180:27:21

But isn't it nice?

0:27:210:27:22

True to form, David's going to try and get shop owner Nick Grindley to slash the price.

0:27:220:27:28

I really want your very best on that, please.

0:27:280:27:31

Right, the very best on it would be 150.

0:27:310:27:36

150. That's a bit more than I wanted to pay.

0:27:360:27:38

Ah. This will be my last figure, and the last figure is 140. That's it.

0:27:380:27:44

What a dilemma. I'm going to make that awful decision

0:27:440:27:47

on buying an expensive item and keeping my fingers crossed

0:27:470:27:51

and hoping that it's going to make a profit.

0:27:510:27:53

And I think I shall go with the...

0:27:530:27:57

lottery ball. That is such fun. Thank you very much indeed.

0:27:570:28:01

OK. Pleasure. Good doing business with you.

0:28:010:28:03

It's been a whale of a tour across Leicestershire,

0:28:040:28:08

Lincolnshire and Rutland - all for the purpose of buying antiques.

0:28:080:28:12

Now our boys must reveal those wares to one another.

0:28:120:28:17

-Come on then, Barbs, surprise me.

-This is my first, OK?

0:28:170:28:20

-What do you think?

-Is it skittles?

0:28:220:28:24

It's ninepins. And I've got the original cheeses. Look at that.

0:28:240:28:29

-What's a cheese?

-This is what you roll at them.

0:28:290:28:31

-Is it? Are they not round?

-They're not round.

0:28:310:28:34

I think that that little lot would make...

0:28:340:28:37

£20 to £30.

0:28:370:28:39

-Oh.

-Go on, what did you pay?

-Oh, dear.

0:28:390:28:43

-No, you're fine, I know you. Go on, what did you pay?

-Fiver.

-You're home and hosed!

0:28:430:28:48

A little seal, and a little nib wiper.

0:28:480:28:52

-Oh, that's sweet.

-Go on, how much was that lot then?

0:28:520:28:55

The whole lot?

0:28:550:28:57

-Yes.

-Probably in the region of £8-£10.

0:28:570:28:59

I paid a tenner for it, yeah.

0:28:590:29:01

What do you think it will make, a profit?

0:29:010:29:03

-I think it will make 15-18.

-Oh, that'll do.

0:29:030:29:06

That's for stirring your cocktail with.

0:29:060:29:08

Or getting bubbles out of champagne.

0:29:080:29:11

You see we can't afford champagne where I come from.

0:29:110:29:14

-I think that's really quite sweet. What did you pay for it?

-15.

0:29:140:29:17

-Oh, that's all right, isn't it? Are you ready for this, Barbs?

-Yep.

0:29:170:29:22

-Job lot.

-Yeah?

-25 quid. What do you think?

0:29:220:29:24

I think that's very good actually.

0:29:240:29:26

People love collecting these pharmaceuticals.

0:29:260:29:29

-Do you think I'll do all right with those?

-I think they are quite nice, I like those immensely.

0:29:290:29:34

Right, my next object.

0:29:340:29:36

-You push it down, it pops up again.

-Really? Oh, yeah.

0:29:360:29:39

-There's still a vacuum there.

-Yeah. Go on, you paid 20 quid for it?

0:29:390:29:43

-Five.

-Yeah, that's cheap enough.

0:29:430:29:45

Rolling on, then, Philip's bowls.

0:29:450:29:48

I bought the four pairs for £35, which I thought was really cheap.

0:29:480:29:52

-I think that's cheap. It's lignum vitae, isn't it?

-Yeah.

0:29:520:29:56

It's the wood that is more valuable than the actual bowls themselves.

0:29:560:30:00

All polished up, David's copper tray.

0:30:000:30:03

-You probably bought that for a fiver?

-Yeah.

0:30:030:30:06

-It's cheap at a fiver.

-Isn't it?

0:30:060:30:08

But it was black, but I love those sort of intertwining leaves, very much like William Morris.

0:30:080:30:14

It's very nice. Isn't it lovely?

0:30:140:30:16

-Oh, it's beautiful, Barbs.

-Oh, God, I adore that.

0:30:160:30:19

-I'm moved.

-How much do you think it's going to make?

0:30:190:30:22

-You'll make 30 quid on that one.

-Yeah.

0:30:220:30:24

Out of everything you've bought, is there one thing that you thought, "I'm not sure?"

0:30:240:30:28

-Yeah.

-This is mine. When I started, copper kettles were

0:30:280:30:31

£90 and £100 or £105, now they're £10 or £15 each, aren't they?

0:30:310:30:37

I paid £20 for the two.

0:30:370:30:39

I might be in with a bit of a shout, mightn't I?

0:30:390:30:42

Those are quite nice.

0:30:420:30:43

Could David's lottery ball dispenser be his mistake?

0:30:430:30:47

Have a go.

0:30:470:30:49

Isn't it wonderful?

0:30:530:30:55

And the winning number is number 11!

0:30:550:30:59

Look out, Dale Winton. How much was that, Barbs? I wouldn't have a clue.

0:30:590:31:03

I think he's daft enough to give 55 or 60 quid for it.

0:31:030:31:07

-Ha! Just double it.

-You paid £120 for it?

-£140.

-Oh, well!

0:31:070:31:11

Time for Philip's rake and shovel combo.

0:31:110:31:15

I think this has had some re-carving.

0:31:150:31:17

Well, they would have got burnt.

0:31:170:31:19

Well, yeah, I think this was a rectangular one,

0:31:190:31:23

and has been made into an oval one. Now this I think is interesting.

0:31:230:31:28

-Yeah, it's a rake, isn't it?

-Yeah, but it's a combination

0:31:280:31:32

of various components actually.

0:31:320:31:34

Yeah - it's a wooden rake and a metal rake.

0:31:340:31:36

-Well, that's where the metal rake would have been.

-Here, yeah.

0:31:360:31:39

And they've used the shaft.

0:31:390:31:41

-So I think the whole thing has been revamped.

-I paid £25 for the two.

0:31:410:31:46

Well, I wish you the best of luck.

0:31:460:31:48

-I'm sure you'll do well with them.

-Yes, I'd like to say the same.

0:31:480:31:51

I didn't, but I'd like to.

0:31:510:31:53

Oh, he is a rotter! What's the real verdict?

0:31:530:31:56

I didn't like the rake, because it had been heavily restored

0:31:560:32:00

and cleaned and it didn't have the natural feel about it.

0:32:000:32:03

I also think the same with the paddle, which should have been rectangular.

0:32:030:32:08

His tombola thing, erm...

0:32:080:32:11

I think that's a huge gamble, and he could conceivably lose £100 on that.

0:32:110:32:16

I think from Philip's objects,

0:32:160:32:18

all of them have a potential profit margin, except for the sealing wax.

0:32:180:32:23

But you can never tell.

0:32:230:32:25

No, you cannot. This leg of the road trip is now drawing to an end.

0:32:260:32:30

Our experts have whizzed around the East Midlands

0:32:300:32:33

taking in high spots like Sileby,

0:32:330:32:36

Loughborough, Stamford, Rutland Water,

0:32:360:32:39

Wymondham and Uppingham.

0:32:390:32:41

Now they're zooming way out east to Aylsham in Norfolk for the auction.

0:32:410:32:46

Aylsham is slap bang in the middle of the Garden of Norfolk.

0:32:480:32:52

It's a thriving rural community that enjoys a busy weekly auction market.

0:32:520:32:57

Good news, chaps!

0:32:570:33:00

-Well, here we are before your very eyes.

-Are you ready, Barbs?

0:33:000:33:04

-Yeah.

-I'm going to have to get something for my nerves.

0:33:040:33:06

It's the custard jacket, isn't it?

0:33:060:33:09

Let's hope David doesn't try to sell that!

0:33:090:33:12

Keys Auctions, in business since 1953, is a busy sale room.

0:33:130:33:19

Today is a general sale, so anything goes.

0:33:190:33:21

Auctioneer Henry Hammond is the man in charge,

0:33:210:33:24

and he's discovered something interesting.

0:33:240:33:27

-Your tray has hope, sir.

-Oh, thank goodness for that!

0:33:270:33:30

Hope. Keswick School of Industrial Arts,

0:33:300:33:33

which you may or may not have noticed at the time of purchase...

0:33:330:33:36

It was black when I bought it, absolutely black.

0:33:360:33:39

How much do you think?

0:33:390:33:40

-We may make £100.

-Ah!

0:33:400:33:43

Thank you very much, that would be absolutely super!

0:33:430:33:46

Keswick School of Industrial Art was highly respected

0:33:470:33:51

during the Arts and Crafts period.

0:33:510:33:53

It just goes to show that a spot of polish really can unearth a treasure.

0:33:530:33:57

Both our gents have bought five lots. David began this leg with £252.59.

0:34:010:34:06

He's spent £170 on the atomiser, the ninepins, the swizzle stick,

0:34:060:34:11

the brass lottery globe

0:34:110:34:13

and what transpires to be a Keswick copper tray.

0:34:130:34:17

While Philip started out with £223.57.

0:34:200:34:24

He's splashed out £115 on the wax sealing set and pen wipe,

0:34:240:34:30

the glass jars, the hardwood bowls,

0:34:300:34:33

the brass saucepans and the bread shovel and rake.

0:34:330:34:37

What a mixture!

0:34:370:34:38

It's eyes to the front for the man with the gavel.

0:34:380:34:41

We all know a nod's as good as a wink to him!

0:34:410:34:44

Well, this is it, Barbs. This could be trouble.

0:34:440:34:46

Philip's bread shovel and rake are up first.

0:34:460:34:50

£30 for them? £20 then?

0:34:500:34:53

-£10 then anyone? Fiver then anyone?

-I think we're up here.

0:34:530:34:57

At five, bid now. Six, at six, at eight now, at ten...

0:34:570:35:00

At ten, at 12 now. At 12, at 15...

0:35:000:35:03

At 15, anybody else at 15, 18 at the front then, at 18.

0:35:030:35:07

20, 22, 25. 25?

0:35:070:35:11

£25 and done, then.

0:35:110:35:13

That's just cost me the commission!

0:35:130:35:17

That's right. Philip might have broken even,

0:35:170:35:20

but he still has the auction costs to think about.

0:35:200:35:23

-Well, that's not too bad.

-It's all working out well, isn't it?

0:35:230:35:27

-Never mind, the brass saucepans might fair better.

-£20 for them?

0:35:270:35:33

£10 then... Fiver, then, anyone. Anyone for a fiver?

0:35:330:35:36

Five bid now. In the doorway, then. Six now...

0:35:360:35:40

Oh, we're racing away.

0:35:400:35:42

At 10. Middle row then, at 10.

0:35:420:35:44

I should have bought a tin of beans and put it in them!

0:35:440:35:47

£10 and done, then.

0:35:470:35:49

Crash and burn.

0:35:490:35:51

He's lost half their cost - proving items like these

0:35:510:35:56

are not as fashionable as they used to be.

0:35:560:35:59

Now for David's ninepins.

0:35:590:36:02

Then we're onto lot 184...

0:36:020:36:04

My lot, my lot.

0:36:040:36:06

£10 we're bid to start. At 10 now,

0:36:060:36:08

12, 15, 18.

0:36:080:36:11

20, 22, 25, 28, 30,

0:36:110:36:15

32, 35, 38,

0:36:150:36:18

40, 42.

0:36:180:36:20

42, 45. 45, 48. 48, 50.

0:36:200:36:24

Five, 55, 60, five.

0:36:240:36:28

70, five, 75, 80. Five.

0:36:280:36:32

90, five, 95, 100.

0:36:320:36:36

105. 110. 110 in the front.

0:36:360:36:39

Christopher Columbus!

0:36:390:36:40

I just don't believe this.

0:36:400:36:44

120, five, on the wall, then, at 125...

0:36:440:36:47

-On the wall? More like off the wall.

-At £125 and done then...

0:36:470:36:52

-Oh, my...!

-I'm going to shove one of those...

0:36:520:36:55

Sorry, could you just remind me what it was?

0:36:550:36:58

I lost the will to live at 100 quid.

0:36:580:37:00

That's a smashing return of £120 before commission.

0:37:000:37:05

Was that good? That was really good!

0:37:050:37:08

Time for Philip's sealing set and pen wipe.

0:37:090:37:14

Maybe these will change his fortunes.

0:37:140:37:16

At £30 for it. £20 then.

0:37:160:37:20

Oh, Henry Hell.

0:37:200:37:21

10 bid now, 12, 15, 18, 20, two, 25.

0:37:210:37:26

Anybody else? In the front. £25 and done then...

0:37:260:37:31

A profit, and about time, too.

0:37:310:37:34

But he needs a whole lot more to stay in the game.

0:37:340:37:38

You've got £15 profit on that, and it will increase, don't worry.

0:37:380:37:41

Very generous of him! Anyway, let's hope so. Roll on, David's atomiser.

0:37:410:37:47

£20 for it. £10 then.

0:37:470:37:50

Fiver, then. £5, at 6 now... At 6.

0:37:500:37:54

At 8, at 8, at 10...

0:37:540:37:57

At 12 now, in the front then, at 12.

0:37:570:38:00

At 15 now. At 15.

0:38:000:38:02

18? 18, right in the front.

0:38:020:38:04

Anybody else? £18 and done then...

0:38:040:38:09

That's disappointing.

0:38:090:38:11

"Oh, that's disappointing."(!)

0:38:110:38:13

Yes, David! But it's still a profit.

0:38:130:38:16

Not to be sniffed at. Ha!

0:38:160:38:18

I thought it would have done

0:38:180:38:19

-at least 20.

-Ha!

0:38:190:38:22

Let's see how your swizzle stick tickles the bidders.

0:38:220:38:26

£10 for it, at five bid now, at £5,

0:38:260:38:29

at six now, at eight, at eight, at 10,

0:38:290:38:32

at 12, at 15, at 18,

0:38:320:38:36

20, 22, 22 in the front then.

0:38:360:38:39

25, 25, anybody else at £25?

0:38:390:38:42

That must be awfully disappointing(!)

0:38:420:38:45

-It is, actually.

-So disappointing.

-How much did that make?

-£25.

0:38:450:38:48

25, thank you.

0:38:480:38:50

Now, now, no need for handbags at dawn, girls.

0:38:500:38:54

Although David is romping ahead.

0:38:540:38:56

Don't worry, you'll rejoice when the hamster cage is up.

0:38:560:38:59

That's exactly right.

0:38:590:39:01

David's brass lottery globe could go either way.

0:39:010:39:05

£100 for it. Very unusual thing. £50 then.

0:39:050:39:09

£30, then. 30 bid now. At 30,

0:39:090:39:13

at 32 now.

0:39:130:39:15

35, 35, in the doorway then at 35.

0:39:150:39:19

Anybody else? In the doorway then...

0:39:190:39:21

Oh, goodness me.

0:39:210:39:23

38, 40, two, 45, 48, 50.

0:39:230:39:28

Anybody else?

0:39:280:39:29

£50 and done then...

0:39:290:39:32

Oh, as I expected.

0:39:320:39:34

Yes!

0:39:390:39:40

Ha! It's bombed - with a £90 loss.

0:39:400:39:45

David's gamble didn't pay off.

0:39:450:39:47

That cancels out my gain of 100 earlier on.

0:39:470:39:50

Oh, gosh. "That cancels out my gain of 100 earlier on!" Ohhhh!

0:39:500:39:56

Mind your Marjory manners, Philip!

0:39:560:39:59

No-one likes a Rosemary rude,

0:39:590:40:02

especially as your glass jars are on display next.

0:40:020:40:06

£30 for them. £20 then.

0:40:060:40:09

£10 then anyone. Fiver then, anyone.

0:40:090:40:12

-Help!

-Five bid now, at £5.

0:40:120:40:14

At £5, at six, then.

0:40:140:40:17

At six, at eight. At eight, at ten.

0:40:170:40:20

At ten, at 12, right in the front then, at 12.

0:40:200:40:23

At £12 and done then...

0:40:230:40:27

Another loss. Not great.

0:40:270:40:30

This just isn't Philip's day.

0:40:300:40:33

-How much have I lost today, Barbs?

-Erm, so far only £26.

0:40:330:40:36

It's like the Wall Street Crash.

0:40:360:40:39

Let's hope his hardwood bowls play better.

0:40:390:40:42

Lot 389...

0:40:420:40:44

Smile, even if you lose.

0:40:440:40:46

..together with two jacks there.

0:40:460:40:48

All that lot there, £30 for it.

0:40:480:40:51

£20 then. £10 then to start...

0:40:510:40:53

-Oh, I am staggered.

-10 bid now, at £10. £12. 15, 18.

0:40:530:40:59

-20...

-OK, come on, a bit more.

-22.

0:40:590:41:02

You two are right together, bidding.

0:41:020:41:05

At 22, 25, 28 now.

0:41:050:41:07

At 28, anybody else at 28?

0:41:070:41:09

30. At 30.

0:41:090:41:11

32, 32, 35, 35 - anybody else at 35?

0:41:110:41:17

At £35 and done then...

0:41:170:41:21

Ah, dear, I'm so disappointed for you, Philip. I really, really am.

0:41:210:41:25

It's just a lot of bowls, this - another loss after commission.

0:41:250:41:30

If I wasn't in the same car as you, I'd let your tyres down.

0:41:300:41:33

Now for the last lot of the day - David's repousser copper tray.

0:41:330:41:38

If there's an Arts and Crafts buff out there, this could clean up.

0:41:380:41:43

Lot 403 is the late 19th century Arts and Crafts copper tray,

0:41:430:41:48

-bearing Keswick School of Industrial Art...

-Yes!

-..stamp to it.

0:41:480:41:53

At 50, bid now, at 50.

0:41:530:41:54

-I'm going to go and cry.

-Shh, shh.

0:41:540:41:57

At the back then, 65...

0:41:570:41:59

-Ah, it's been a great day.

-Shh!

0:41:590:42:00

80, five, 90, five,

0:42:000:42:04

100, 105, 110, 115...

0:42:040:42:07

Can you stop digging me in the ribs? I can't stand this any more.

0:42:070:42:11

I'm going to be ill!

0:42:110:42:12

I can't do this any more!

0:42:120:42:15

200, 200, in the front then, at 200.

0:42:150:42:18

Anybody else? In the front, then...

0:42:180:42:20

Surely there's another bid.

0:42:200:42:22

£200 and done then...

0:42:220:42:24

That's just made my day, it's been perfect all the way round.

0:42:240:42:27

Thank you so much!

0:42:270:42:28

Ha-ha-ha(!) Before commission, that's an incredible profit.

0:42:280:42:33

And it only cost David a fiver.

0:42:330:42:36

Oh, what a splendid day, I really have enjoyed it.

0:42:360:42:39

-Yes, it's been great fun, hasn't it?

-Yeah. Ha-ha!

0:42:390:42:43

Ha-ha! What a disappointing auction for Philip, though.

0:42:430:42:46

After paying the auction house costs, he's made a loss of £26.86,

0:42:460:42:53

leaving him with just £196.71 to go on with.

0:42:530:42:57

Champion for the second time this week is David Barby.

0:43:010:43:05

After paying commission, he's made a profit of £174.33,

0:43:050:43:11

giving him a whopping £426.92 to start the next show.

0:43:110:43:16

Never mind, tomorrow is another day. How sweet!

0:43:190:43:25

Next time on Antiques Road Trip,

0:43:250:43:26

Philip tries to claw back those losses.

0:43:260:43:30

I've tried to pull every trick in the book!

0:43:300:43:32

And David gets even cheekier, if it's possible,

0:43:320:43:34

when it comes to slashing prices.

0:43:340:43:37

-Can we round it off at 20?!

-HE LAUGHS

0:43:370:43:39

This is being quite painful!
