0:47:50 > 0:47:57.
0:48:02 > 0:48:08- The nation's favourite antiques experts, £200 each and one big challenge.- Do I buy you or not?
0:48:08 > 0:48:13- Who can make the most money buying and selling antiques as they scour the UK?- I must be mad.
0:48:13 > 0:48:17- The aim is trade up and hope each antique turns a profit.- Oh!
0:48:17 > 0:48:22- But it's not as easy as it looks and dreams of glory can end in tatters. - What will I do?
0:48:22 > 0:48:26Will it be the fast lane to success or the slow road to bankruptcy?
0:48:26 > 0:48:32- I should have kept my money in my pocket. - This is the Antiques Road Trip.
0:48:34 > 0:48:35Yeah!
0:48:35 > 0:48:42This week, we're on the road with two experts, Mark Stacey and Margie Cooper, raring to get shopping.
0:48:42 > 0:48:46Let's give up on this. Because we're not good at it, are we?
0:48:46 > 0:48:50Don't give up yet. Today's another day.
0:48:51 > 0:48:55Margie Cooper is a dealer with a penchant for silver,
0:48:55 > 0:48:58but can she whistle up any good bargains this week?
0:48:58 > 0:49:01- PLAYS A NOTE - It's working.
0:49:01 > 0:49:08Mark Stacey is a Road Trip old hand and knows how to get the dealers to dance to his tune.
0:49:08 > 0:49:13- Do you think that I could buy that for a tenner?- A tenner?- Yes. - You must be joking!
0:49:14 > 0:49:19So from his original £200, Mark has made a few canny purchases
0:49:19 > 0:49:25and now has a rumbumptious £337.16 to splash about...
0:49:26 > 0:49:29..whereas Margie also started out with £200,
0:49:29 > 0:49:34but after a few losses, her grand total has dwindled to £192.06.
0:49:34 > 0:49:36Not so hot.
0:49:36 > 0:49:39- That was a bummer.- That was awful.
0:49:40 > 0:49:44Our experts started this week's journey in Chilham, Kent,
0:49:44 > 0:49:47and are travelling 250 miles across southern England
0:49:47 > 0:49:50to the final showdown in Torquay, Devon.
0:49:50 > 0:49:56Today's leg starts in the heart of the New Forest in the village of Burley, Hampshire,
0:49:56 > 0:50:01then meanders through Dorset, ending up at an auction in Sherborne.
0:50:02 > 0:50:05Welcome to the New Forest,
0:50:05 > 0:50:09the largest expanse of pasture land in the south of England
0:50:09 > 0:50:12where we find our experts, Mark and Margie,
0:50:12 > 0:50:17gearing up their 1960 MGC for another day's antiques grazing.
0:50:17 > 0:50:22Margie, I've just pulled over here. We're close to your shop. Look at that view!
0:50:22 > 0:50:26- It's superb.- How are you feeling? - I'm feeling really up and running.
0:50:26 > 0:50:31- Fourth buying leg.- You've made a bit of money.- I'm back to square one.
0:50:31 > 0:50:35- You're slightly below square one. - You've been doing your sums again.
0:50:35 > 0:50:39- Are you itching to get there?- I am. - You want me to take you?- Go on.
0:50:39 > 0:50:43- Seatbelt on?- Yeah.- Money in your pocket?- Definitely in my pocket.
0:50:43 > 0:50:45Then we're off.
0:50:45 > 0:50:50The New Forest village of Burley has been around since the Bronze Age,
0:50:50 > 0:50:57but became notorious in the late 1950s due to a resident white witch called Sybil Leek
0:50:57 > 0:51:00who also happened to own an antiques shop here.
0:51:00 > 0:51:05Nowadays, you're more likely to encounter a wild pony than a witch,
0:51:05 > 0:51:11- but there is still a healthy trade in antiques.- Here it is.- Here we go. - Oh, lots of lovely things.- Yeah.
0:51:11 > 0:51:16- Listen, I'll drop you off here.- OK. - I'll see you later.- Yeah.- All right?
0:51:16 > 0:51:19Margie's first shop of the day looks promising
0:51:19 > 0:51:25with all kinds of interesting-looking collectables from jewellery to ceramics.
0:51:25 > 0:51:28- Vanessa?- Yes. - I'll have a quick look round.
0:51:31 > 0:51:35Owner Vanessa runs both the shop and the ice cream parlour next door,
0:51:35 > 0:51:38so can she find something sweet to tempt Margie?
0:51:39 > 0:51:46Nice, little scent bottle. £50 on it, so I think that would make life a bit difficult for me.
0:51:46 > 0:51:49Wemyss Ware. Did you pay a lot for it?
0:51:49 > 0:51:52- 80.- Yes, that's quite a lot, isn't it?
0:51:52 > 0:51:57- I think I'm way out on the price. - OK.- I don't like them enough to even bid, really.
0:51:57 > 0:52:01I'd really have a go if I liked them, but I'm not very keen on them.
0:52:01 > 0:52:08Margie, you're being terribly dismissive today, but what's this tucked up high on a shelf?
0:52:08 > 0:52:11- That's interesting. - This is an old water filter.
0:52:11 > 0:52:15How long have you had that? I'll see if your ticket's faded.
0:52:16 > 0:52:19Oh, it's not... Oh, gosh! That's the price.
0:52:19 > 0:52:23- 160.- We can do it for less than that.
0:52:25 > 0:52:32Henry Doulton not only ran one of Britain's most successful pottery businesses in the 19th century,
0:52:32 > 0:52:38he also developed ceramic water filters that removed bacteria from drinking water.
0:52:38 > 0:52:42They were widely adopted and contributed to saving many people
0:52:42 > 0:52:45from the ravages of cholera and typhoid.
0:52:45 > 0:52:51- So it's Doulton Lambeth.- It's lovely. It's like Wedgwood Jasper. - It is, yeah, a little bit.
0:52:51 > 0:52:53But how much? It's got to be...
0:52:53 > 0:52:56- 60.- 60 quid?
0:52:57 > 0:53:00£60, down from £160.
0:53:00 > 0:53:03That's £100 off. Margie's got to go for that.
0:53:03 > 0:53:07I don't know. Is this calling me, is this calling me?
0:53:07 > 0:53:09- Or maybe not.- So that's...
0:53:10 > 0:53:13- So you've had this...?- 55.
0:53:13 > 0:53:16LAUGHTER
0:53:16 > 0:53:18That's got to be a deal, hasn't it?
0:53:18 > 0:53:21- 55. Thank you.- It's a deal.
0:53:21 > 0:53:23Thank goodness for that!
0:53:23 > 0:53:29Mark's travelled five miles up the road out of the New Forest to his first shop in Ringwood.
0:53:29 > 0:53:36Lorraine Tarrant's emporium is stacked to the gunwales with gorgeous collectables
0:53:36 > 0:53:41and all manner of decorative items, plenty for Mark to feast his eyes on.
0:53:41 > 0:53:46And he's not afraid to confess all to the owner of this fine establishment.
0:53:46 > 0:53:50- I need help, Lorraine. - What sort of help?
0:53:50 > 0:53:53- Psychiatric.- Psychiatric? We all need that!
0:53:53 > 0:53:56I think that's probably what I really need.
0:53:56 > 0:54:00Before long, Lorraine has found something Mark might fancy.
0:54:00 > 0:54:04I love that wooden background and the eyes are so appealing.
0:54:04 > 0:54:08- Yeah, it's very nice. - It's really stunning.
0:54:08 > 0:54:10Those are really rather charming.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13- So you like your birds? - I do like my birds.
0:54:15 > 0:54:22But even with my charm and my love of pigeons, I don't think I'll be able to afford that painting.
0:54:22 > 0:54:25But it is lovely. What have you put on it?
0:54:25 > 0:54:27- Shock me.- It's £850.
0:54:27 > 0:54:29HE SIGHS
0:54:29 > 0:54:32I'm sure we could negotiate.
0:54:32 > 0:54:35- No, trust me, we couldn't.- We could.
0:54:35 > 0:54:39It's only one nought out. 85 would have been nice, wouldn't it?
0:54:39 > 0:54:42- Oh, a real antique dealer! - I know. I'm terrible.
0:54:43 > 0:54:48After that flight of fancy, it's time to get down to some serious browsing.
0:54:48 > 0:54:50This is, I'm guessing,
0:54:50 > 0:54:56a sort of 1950s child's tinplate... well, hobbyhorse.
0:54:56 > 0:55:02You sit your child in here and he holds on to these early plastic handles.
0:55:02 > 0:55:04And he rocks and is very happy, I'm sure.
0:55:04 > 0:55:09But what I like about it is the colours are still in quite good condition
0:55:09 > 0:55:11and all the wood is there.
0:55:11 > 0:55:15It's rather appealing in a sort of bygone way.
0:55:15 > 0:55:17Time to fetch the lovely Lorraine.
0:55:17 > 0:55:21- It's in remarkably good condition. - It is, isn't it?
0:55:21 > 0:55:27No, I got that wrong. It's in terrible condition(!) It's worn all here and there's a lot of wear here.
0:55:27 > 0:55:34- There's scratches everywhere. - That's where some little darling has been racing it down the road.
0:55:34 > 0:55:41- I'm a little darling and I want to race it to auction.- Oh, race it to auction!- Be honest with me, Lorraine.
0:55:41 > 0:55:44- Yes.- Do you think that I could buy that for a tenner?
0:55:44 > 0:55:47- A tenner?- Yes. - You must be joking!- Really?
0:55:47 > 0:55:52- Too much?- Do you think I get given things?- Would you do it for a fiver?
0:55:52 > 0:55:56- Don't show me the price.- Oh, my word!- I don't want to see the price.
0:55:56 > 0:56:00- It's too much, a tenner. We might get it for eight.- A tenner?!
0:56:00 > 0:56:05- I just think in auction, what would they put on it? 20 to 30? - Probably, yeah.
0:56:05 > 0:56:09- Well, I could go to 11.- 11?! LAUGHTER
0:56:10 > 0:56:1215.
0:56:12 > 0:56:14- 15?- 15.
0:56:14 > 0:56:17Oh, can I be awful?
0:56:17 > 0:56:24- You can try.- How awful can I be with you, Lorraine, because you've got such a sweet, innocent face?
0:56:24 > 0:56:27Could we say 13?
0:56:27 > 0:56:29- 13?!- Yes.
0:56:29 > 0:56:35My goodness me! I've never really been this much of a bargain person.
0:56:35 > 0:56:39- (I think we'll get it.) - I say £14 and it's yours.
0:56:39 > 0:56:41Oh, do you know, I...
0:56:41 > 0:56:45It's terrible. I get these blanks when I can't hear anything.
0:56:45 > 0:56:49- I must pop my hearing aid in. No, that's a microphone.- Oh, dear.
0:56:51 > 0:56:53- 13.50.- £14, it's yours.
0:56:53 > 0:56:56- 13.50.- You're a terrible person!
0:56:56 > 0:56:58I'm terrible, but I've got to win.
0:56:58 > 0:57:03- You've got to win. Go on, 13.50, it's yours.- You're an angel!
0:57:03 > 0:57:06- Thanks again.- Bye-bye!- Bye!- Bye!
0:57:06 > 0:57:13Waiting patiently in Burley, Margie has found a new strategy to deal with her sparring partner.
0:57:13 > 0:57:17- TOOTS HORN - Hey, look what I've got for you!
0:57:17 > 0:57:19Margie!
0:57:19 > 0:57:22- Oh, darling!- Fandabby-dozy!
0:57:22 > 0:57:25Whatever I said about you, I didn't mean it.
0:57:26 > 0:57:29- I'll hold it and you drive.- Hmm!
0:57:29 > 0:57:33- I'll hold it. Off we go. - Oh, it's all over me.
0:57:33 > 0:57:35- You are kind.- I know I am.
0:57:35 > 0:57:42Stop eating my ice cream, Margie. Don't eat all the nice bits off it and leave me with the vanilla.
0:57:42 > 0:57:46I don't think the charm offensive worked, Margie.
0:57:46 > 0:57:50With them both in the car, they're now heading to Bournemouth.
0:57:52 > 0:57:57Back in the early 1800s, Bournemouth was known as "Bourne Heath"
0:57:57 > 0:58:02and was a remote desert of barren heathland, frequented only by turf-cutters,
0:58:02 > 0:58:08fishermen and gangs of smugglers taking full advantage of the empty beaches.
0:58:08 > 0:58:12Our pair of marauders have sailed in, hoping to plunder its treasures.
0:58:12 > 0:58:16While Margie heads off to her next shop,
0:58:16 > 0:58:22Mark strolls up the sea front to discover more about one of Bournemouth's great industrialists.
0:58:22 > 0:58:28He's here to visit the Russell-Cotes Museum, an extraordinary building right on the sea front.
0:58:28 > 0:58:33- Hello. You must be Duncan. - Nice to meet you.- I'm Mark. - Welcome to the Russell-Cotes.
0:58:33 > 0:58:38Showing him round will be collections officer, Duncan Walker.
0:58:41 > 0:58:46The Russell-Coteses, Annie and Merton, were a couple that lived in Bournemouth.
0:58:46 > 0:58:50Merton owned and operated the Royal Bath Hotel which is behind us
0:58:50 > 0:58:57and he spent his money collecting fabulous artworks and treasures from their trips around the world.
0:58:57 > 0:59:03Finished in 1901, the house is one of Britain's last truly Victorian buildings.
0:59:03 > 0:59:07It was built as a token of love by Sir Merton Russell-Cotes
0:59:07 > 0:59:10for his beloved Glaswegian wife Annie
0:59:10 > 0:59:15and combines the Italian Renaissance style with Scottish Baronial.
0:59:15 > 0:59:21At a time when women artists were still scorned upon, Merton and Annie were keen collectors.
0:59:21 > 0:59:25Gosh, now, that's quite a dramatic painting, Duncan!
0:59:25 > 0:59:28That's Evelyn De Morgan's Aurora Triumphans.
0:59:28 > 0:59:32You say De Morgan. Is that any connection to William De Morgan?
0:59:32 > 0:59:38Yes, that's his wife who painted this in secret as her family didn't approve of her being an artist.
0:59:38 > 0:59:44- Really?- It was sold to the Russell-Coteses as a Burne-Jones, the Pre-Raphaelite follower,
0:59:44 > 0:59:50to the point where an unscrupulous dealer altered the signature to be Burne-Jones's.
0:59:50 > 0:59:53You can see it there in the corner on the rock.
0:59:53 > 0:59:58In terms of value, probably a lot less than a Burne-Jones, but it's striking.
0:59:58 > 1:00:04- It's one of our best-selling postcards.- I might even get one myself.- Please do.
1:00:05 > 1:00:08Merton and Annie also collected furniture
1:00:08 > 1:00:15and Duncan is keen to show Mark one piece in particular that once belonged to an emperor.
1:00:15 > 1:00:19- This is Napoleon's bureau. - Oh! Now tell me about this then.
1:00:19 > 1:00:25We've had this completely restored, but this is exactly where Merton had it
1:00:25 > 1:00:28and presumably, Merton used to use it.
1:00:28 > 1:00:33- Sit there and imagine himself controlling half of Europe!- Yes.
1:00:34 > 1:00:38It's very, very subtle for the former Emperor of France, isn't it?
1:00:38 > 1:00:43- I'm sure that in the Champs-Elysees, he would have used something much grander.- Yes.
1:00:43 > 1:00:46- It is one of our treasures. - Certainly.
1:00:46 > 1:00:52- And I can say that I've touched it, if that's all right. - That's fine, that's fine.
1:00:52 > 1:00:57Merton and Annie died within a year of each other in the early 1920s,
1:00:57 > 1:01:01leaving the house and many treasures to the people of Bournemouth
1:01:01 > 1:01:05as a museum and art gallery for all to enjoy.
1:01:05 > 1:01:10Along the Bournemouth sea front, Margie has arrived at her second shop du jour.
1:01:10 > 1:01:14- What a lovely shop! - Pleased to meet you. I'm Bonnie.
1:01:15 > 1:01:20Perhaps this emporium will tempt our hard-to-please expert.
1:01:20 > 1:01:25Little nodding figures. He's doing what all men do.
1:01:25 > 1:01:31He's nodding his head that way. She's going, "Oh, yes, I will." "Oh, no, you won't."
1:01:31 > 1:01:35Hmm, can't make up their minds. That reminds me of someone.
1:01:35 > 1:01:38Could a bit of glass cut it, Margie?
1:01:38 > 1:01:42So I think being a set of three is always nice.
1:01:42 > 1:01:44Yeah, they're nice.
1:01:44 > 1:01:46I think they call it ice glass.
1:01:48 > 1:01:52- Quite attractive, aren't they? Very attractive.- Hmm.
1:01:52 > 1:01:55Isn't that nice with the sort of cranberry snake?
1:01:55 > 1:01:59Careful, Bonnie. Margie's coiled and ready to pounce.
1:01:59 > 1:02:02Well, I was hoping for about 50 for the set,
1:02:02 > 1:02:06but there's possibly a little room for manoeuvre.
1:02:07 > 1:02:11- Yeah.- 40 for the set is very...
1:02:11 > 1:02:14- It's quite a fair price.- £40?
1:02:14 > 1:02:18- Yes. That's the lowest I can go to, I'm afraid. Sorry.- I'm sure.
1:02:18 > 1:02:22I'm sure. Would 38 seal it, to take the commission off,
1:02:22 > 1:02:25if the worst comes to the worst?
1:02:25 > 1:02:28I'm feeling sorry for you now, so yes.
1:02:29 > 1:02:31- Done.- OK.
1:02:33 > 1:02:37Signed and sealed, that's Margie's last purchase of the day
1:02:37 > 1:02:43and as the sun sets over Bournemouth, it's night-night time for our dear experts.
1:02:49 > 1:02:54It's Day Two and Mark and Margie are up with the lark and digging for worms.
1:02:54 > 1:02:58Margie, how did you find buying yesterday?
1:02:58 > 1:03:01- I'm quite pleased. - Nobody's listening.
1:03:01 > 1:03:05- Are you going to tell me? - Of course I'm not going to tell you.
1:03:05 > 1:03:11- You'll have to wait.- Are you teasing me?- No.- You're playing with me. - I'm playing with your emotions.
1:03:12 > 1:03:16Yesterday, Margie spent £93 on two lots -
1:03:16 > 1:03:20the Doulton water filter with classical figures
1:03:20 > 1:03:23and the three Victorian ice glass dishes,
1:03:23 > 1:03:26leaving her with £99.06 to spend today...
1:03:26 > 1:03:29- Done.- OK.
1:03:31 > 1:03:33..whilst Mark spent a mere £13.50
1:03:33 > 1:03:36on the 1950s tinplate rocking horse,
1:03:36 > 1:03:41leaving him with a grand total of £323.66 to splash about today.
1:03:44 > 1:03:46- Thanks again.- Bye-bye!- Bye!- Bye!
1:03:46 > 1:03:50Bournemouth is a hazy memory as our duelling duo head west
1:03:50 > 1:03:53to Owermoigne where Mark will drop Margie off
1:03:53 > 1:03:56before heading to the shops in Dorchester.
1:03:56 > 1:04:01- See you later, darling. - Bye.- Bye, darling. See you. - Have one on me.- Bye.
1:04:03 > 1:04:10Margie has a date with a cider museum while Mark has another pressing concern.
1:04:10 > 1:04:14With only one item in the bag, he's travelling six miles up the road
1:04:14 > 1:04:18to spend all day shopping in Dorchester.
1:04:18 > 1:04:24Dorchester worries me because it's a very expensive town, so I'll have to use all my charm.
1:04:24 > 1:04:27Prepare yourselves, people of Dorchester.
1:04:27 > 1:04:33This market town was immortalised as Casterbridge in Thomas Hardy's famous novel.
1:04:33 > 1:04:37The mayor in the book auctioned off his wife and daughter.
1:04:37 > 1:04:42I really hope Mark will stick to antiques and collectables in his first shop today.
1:04:42 > 1:04:45- David, this is your shop?- Yeah. - How long have you had it?
1:04:45 > 1:04:50- Just the week before Easter this year.- So it's quite new? - Yeah, it's going very well.
1:04:50 > 1:04:56- What on earth are you doing, opening a shop in a recession? - Because everybody told me not to.
1:04:56 > 1:04:59- If you're told not to do it, you do it.- Absolutely.
1:04:59 > 1:05:04A-ha! So there could be some interesting negotiations ahead.
1:05:04 > 1:05:08This is a nice early piece. This is, I think, Regency.
1:05:08 > 1:05:12It's a little jar and cover or urn and cover.
1:05:12 > 1:05:17Very nicely cut and various decoration with a nice sort of faceted knop.
1:05:17 > 1:05:22That might be a possibility, actually. It's a nice, elegant piece.
1:05:22 > 1:05:25I could see that on somebody's...
1:05:26 > 1:05:31..sideboard filled with little sugared almonds or something like that.
1:05:31 > 1:05:37Do you like a vase for sugared almonds? What are those sitting pretty on the window sill?
1:05:37 > 1:05:40I seem to be in quite a glass mood today
1:05:40 > 1:05:44because I've spotted these two slightly pink vases.
1:05:44 > 1:05:47They are called "a pair of lizard vases".
1:05:47 > 1:05:50You can see the sort of lizards here.
1:05:50 > 1:05:54They look like very exaggerated newts to me.
1:05:54 > 1:05:58They look very 1930s, don't they? They look very Art Deco.
1:05:58 > 1:06:02But when I look underneath, there's no wear on the base.
1:06:02 > 1:06:05I think they're almost certainly French.
1:06:05 > 1:06:08But they are rather fun if you like newts.
1:06:08 > 1:06:10Well, who doesn't?
1:06:10 > 1:06:13The cut-glass urn is priced at £110
1:06:13 > 1:06:16and the pair of newt vases at £50.
1:06:16 > 1:06:20David, I do quite like these two pieces.
1:06:20 > 1:06:23- Right.- And again I just think those newts are so funny.
1:06:23 > 1:06:26What sort of price could you do those for me?
1:06:28 > 1:06:32- 35.- 35. That's quite reasonable, isn't it?
1:06:32 > 1:06:34And what about this?
1:06:34 > 1:06:36Oh, I'm not looking.
1:06:36 > 1:06:38I'm not looking.
1:06:38 > 1:06:4075.
1:06:41 > 1:06:4475 and 35, that's 110.
1:06:44 > 1:06:46That's quite a lot, isn't it?
1:06:46 > 1:06:49- 50.- 50?- Yeah.
1:06:49 > 1:06:52For the jar and top
1:06:52 > 1:06:54and 25 for the pair.
1:06:54 > 1:06:56That's 75.
1:06:56 > 1:07:01Is it possible... I know I'm being mean. It is just because of the damage.
1:07:01 > 1:07:03Can we do the three for £60, cash?
1:07:03 > 1:07:0565.
1:07:05 > 1:07:10Go on then. 65. Thank you very much, David.
1:07:10 > 1:07:12Two more lots in the bag. Well done, Mark.
1:07:12 > 1:07:16- Thank you very much. - I'll pop in and see you again.- Do.
1:07:16 > 1:07:21Now, we last saw Margie disappearing off to the Mill House Cider Museum.
1:07:21 > 1:07:25- Ah, Penny!- Hello. Nice to meet you. - Margie Cooper.- Hiya.
1:07:25 > 1:07:29- Are you going to show me around? - Yes, come on through this way.
1:07:29 > 1:07:32# I am a cider drinker
1:07:32 > 1:07:35# I drinks it all of the day... #
1:07:35 > 1:07:37It's a family-run establishment
1:07:37 > 1:07:42and Penny, the daughter of one of the founders, is showing Margie around.
1:07:42 > 1:07:46- We've run the museum for about the last 20 years.- Right.
1:07:46 > 1:07:52My father bought a press when he moved from London to Dorset and decided to make a bit of cider,
1:07:52 > 1:07:56found it was nice and the interest grew from there, really.
1:07:56 > 1:08:02Penny's father and uncle have collected 53 pieces of machinery, some hundreds of years old,
1:08:02 > 1:08:06from all over the West Country to form the museum.
1:08:06 > 1:08:11- This is a horse-drawn crusher.- How old is it?- It's early 19th century.
1:08:11 > 1:08:15So the apples would have been in the stone trough around the edge here
1:08:15 > 1:08:21and the horse would have pulled this big stone wheel round, crushing the apples in the trough.
1:08:21 > 1:08:24- What kind of horse would go in there?- The more elderly ones
1:08:24 > 1:08:29because they didn't mind walking around in circles for hours on end.
1:08:29 > 1:08:33- So an old nag?- Yes. You're welcome to have a push.- Shall I have a go?
1:08:34 > 1:08:39- I can't budge it. - It makes you appreciate how strong the horses used to have to be.
1:08:39 > 1:08:42- They've got four legs. I've only got two.- Yeah.
1:08:44 > 1:08:48Once the apples were crushed, then they would need to be pressed.
1:08:48 > 1:08:53- This is one of our oldest presses we've got up here, about 1750.- Right.
1:08:53 > 1:08:59- You can see this one has got a wooden screw on the top. - Yeah, like a big corkscrew.- Yes.
1:08:59 > 1:09:02- Then the apple pulp that we've already crushed...- Goes on here.
1:09:02 > 1:09:08It would be wrapped in layers of straw to keep it all together and filter the juice out.
1:09:08 > 1:09:12That gets squashed and juice comes out of the bottom.
1:09:12 > 1:09:16Some of the machines are just too impractical to use now,
1:09:16 > 1:09:21but the museum has a few examples that are in good enough working order
1:09:21 > 1:09:25to demonstrate how cider was made the old-fashioned way.
1:09:25 > 1:09:29This is our early 19th century scratter mill.
1:09:29 > 1:09:33There's iron cogs in the top of there that grip the apples,
1:09:33 > 1:09:36crush them up and push them down the bottom.
1:09:36 > 1:09:39- You can have a go at turning the handle.- Terrific.
1:09:39 > 1:09:41- Forwards?- Yeah.
1:09:41 > 1:09:43Oh, it's easy.
1:09:46 > 1:09:52When the apples are soft, it's really good. If you've got hard apples in there, it's really hard.
1:09:52 > 1:09:54It's not as bad as I thought. Oh!
1:09:54 > 1:09:59I expect those apples are well and truly crushed by now, so time for a bit of pressing.
1:09:59 > 1:10:04This is a slightly smaller version of the big wood-screw press in there.
1:10:04 > 1:10:07This is us building up our layers of straw.
1:10:07 > 1:10:10The pulp is layered into straw,
1:10:10 > 1:10:15which is folded over to make a kind of parcel traditionally called a "cheese".
1:10:15 > 1:10:20In a minute, we'll squash the whole lot down and you'll see the juice come out.
1:10:20 > 1:10:23- I can't believe how much work it is. - Yeah, it's very physical.
1:10:23 > 1:10:28There'll be one person on each of the iron screws and they just turn them round.
1:10:28 > 1:10:33- I have noticed there's no fat men here.- No, it does keep you very fit.
1:10:33 > 1:10:36Even if they do drink a lot of cider.
1:10:36 > 1:10:40- It's really coming down now. - Yeah, it really starts to come out.
1:10:40 > 1:10:46To make this juice into cider, it would need to be barrelled for the winter, allowing it to ferment,
1:10:46 > 1:10:48but no such luck for Margie today.
1:10:48 > 1:10:54- Would you like to have a little taste of some juice?- I'd love to. I'll hold it under here.
1:10:54 > 1:10:56It's like syrup, nectar.
1:10:56 > 1:11:01- Cheers.- Cheers. - I'm glad to see you sensibly stuck to the apple juice there, Margie.
1:11:01 > 1:11:06There's shopping to be done and you need all your wits about you.
1:11:07 > 1:11:11In Dorchester, Mark is already on his second shop of the day -
1:11:11 > 1:11:17the De Danann Antiques Centre, a large emporium housing the wares of about 20 dealers.
1:11:17 > 1:11:19- Hello.- Hello.
1:11:19 > 1:11:22- Can I have a look round? - By all means.- Thank you.
1:11:24 > 1:11:30Our Mark's got nearly £260 burning a hole in his pocket, so surely he'll find something to please him.
1:11:30 > 1:11:33Do you think I've lost the plot?
1:11:33 > 1:11:35Because I do.
1:11:36 > 1:11:39I'm rapidly losing the will to live here.
1:11:41 > 1:11:47There's going to be something here for me. I know it, I can feel it. But where?
1:11:47 > 1:11:49Oh, he's spotted something.
1:11:49 > 1:11:51Somehow.
1:11:51 > 1:11:55Do be careful. Don't hurt yourself on my part.
1:11:56 > 1:11:58This Chinese lacquerware...
1:11:58 > 1:12:03Can you see these winged creatures, I suppose, on the front here?
1:12:03 > 1:12:08There's quite a bit of wear on here. It's quite nice, reasonable quality as a carving.
1:12:08 > 1:12:13You've got a Greek key design going around here, all carved round the back as well.
1:12:13 > 1:12:15And...
1:12:16 > 1:12:20It must be fairly strong because it's taking my weight.
1:12:21 > 1:12:23But have a guess what the price is.
1:12:23 > 1:12:26- £80?- No.
1:12:26 > 1:12:28- £100?- No, much higher than that.
1:12:28 > 1:12:35You'll have to think a lot higher at home than that because I think I'm sitting on £145.
1:12:35 > 1:12:37I can't see it at that, really.
1:12:37 > 1:12:42Mark's up for some tough negotiation, but the dealer isn't in today,
1:12:42 > 1:12:45so centre owner John gets on the blower.
1:12:45 > 1:12:47Hello, it's John from the centre.
1:12:47 > 1:12:52- Could you give us a call back as soon as you can?- (Answerphone.) - Thank you.
1:12:52 > 1:12:55I hope that dealer phones you back soon, Mark,
1:12:55 > 1:12:58because Margie is hot on your heels,
1:12:58 > 1:13:05although with only two lots for the auction so far, she's feeling the pressure.
1:13:05 > 1:13:07I'm just getting a bit panicky...
1:13:08 > 1:13:12..because time is running out.
1:13:12 > 1:13:17Time has run out for the owner of the Chinese stool too,
1:13:17 > 1:13:21so centre owner John has decided to step in.
1:13:21 > 1:13:25I do want to buy something here because you've all been so lovely.
1:13:25 > 1:13:30- You couldn't take a gamble at 50? - 55.- They always say that! - You know they do.
1:13:31 > 1:13:35Come on, Mark. That's £85 off the asking price.
1:13:35 > 1:13:38All right, 50 quid. I'll take the gamble.
1:13:38 > 1:13:43I'm doing it. Thanks so much. I don't care what happens. I like it.
1:13:43 > 1:13:47The deal done just in time. Here comes Margie.
1:13:47 > 1:13:48Oh, no.
1:13:48 > 1:13:51- Hello, Margie.- Oh, no!
1:13:51 > 1:13:54Will you go? I'm running out of time.
1:13:54 > 1:13:57- What do you mean, "Will I go?" - I'm panicking.
1:13:57 > 1:14:01I've hardly seen you all day. I thought you might be missing me.
1:14:01 > 1:14:04- Not at all.- Really?- Not one moment.
1:14:05 > 1:14:07That was annoying,
1:14:07 > 1:14:09bumping into his nibs.
1:14:10 > 1:14:13- RINGS BELL - Time's up.
1:14:13 > 1:14:16Very funny. Very funny!
1:14:16 > 1:14:22Don't worry, Margie. Your nemesis is leaving the premises.
1:14:22 > 1:14:25Better get on with some hard browsing!
1:14:25 > 1:14:30I like that. That's a little bamboo magazine rack.
1:14:30 > 1:14:33It's rather small which makes it rather nice.
1:14:33 > 1:14:37It's a nice size, isn't it? I like the size of it.
1:14:37 > 1:14:41And you've got this Japanese decoration.
1:14:41 > 1:14:44The price is £48.
1:14:44 > 1:14:48And the trade is £3 off it which is £45.
1:14:48 > 1:14:52It would have to be a lot cheaper than that if I was to buy it.
1:14:52 > 1:14:58The magazine rack, or Canterbury, as they're known, is one to bear in mind. Is anything else calling her?
1:14:58 > 1:15:00So it's a flute.
1:15:00 > 1:15:03These are very expensive to buy.
1:15:04 > 1:15:10And unlike a violin, you can't really damage a flute, so it could be used again, couldn't it?
1:15:13 > 1:15:16- PLAYS A NOTE - It's working.
1:15:16 > 1:15:18I like it even more now.
1:15:18 > 1:15:21- PLAYS HIGHER NOTE - It's getting really good.
1:15:22 > 1:15:24Don't give up the day job, Margie.
1:15:24 > 1:15:28So the bamboo magazine stand is £45 and the flute is £40.
1:15:28 > 1:15:30Can the dealer do a good price?
1:15:30 > 1:15:33If I had the two,
1:15:33 > 1:15:36how...how do you feel about that?
1:15:36 > 1:15:38I'm nowhere near that.
1:15:38 > 1:15:40I was thinking of...
1:15:41 > 1:15:44..£20 for the rack
1:15:44 > 1:15:46and £25 for the flute.
1:15:46 > 1:15:49Is that pushing you too hard...?
1:15:49 > 1:15:53Yeah, OK, so we're down to 55, which is very kind of you.
1:15:53 > 1:15:55And I've said 45.
1:15:55 > 1:15:58Can we meet in the middle and do the deal?
1:15:58 > 1:16:04I'd much rather be facing you, but if we can say 50 for the two, I'd be very pleased to go ahead.
1:16:04 > 1:16:06And it is cash.
1:16:07 > 1:16:10You're going to go for it.
1:16:10 > 1:16:12Oh, that's very sweet.
1:16:12 > 1:16:15Great stuff. So I can go ahead with the lady here?
1:16:15 > 1:16:17Oh, gosh!
1:16:17 > 1:16:21£50 for the two. That's got to be all right, hasn't it?
1:16:21 > 1:16:27Two more items successfully bought and Margie's shopping is done and dusted.
1:16:27 > 1:16:31- Right, thank you very much. - Thank you very much.- Fantastic.
1:16:31 > 1:16:34A lot of kissing going on!
1:16:34 > 1:16:38Across Dorchester, Mark's come to his very last shop of the day,
1:16:38 > 1:16:42a large warehouse filled with all things vintage and unusual.
1:16:42 > 1:16:44That's rather nice, isn't it?
1:16:44 > 1:16:47The sort of thing Margie would go for.
1:16:47 > 1:16:53Oh, you meanie! Talking of which, you've still got over £200 waiting to be spent. Get a move on!
1:16:53 > 1:16:56# Money
1:16:56 > 1:16:59# Burns a hole in my pocket... #
1:16:59 > 1:17:05Perhaps proprietors Dean and Martin can dig something out to tempt you, Mark.
1:17:05 > 1:17:08What have we got in here? Anything of interest?
1:17:08 > 1:17:14- The old pinball machine there, that's a treasure. - That looks very interesting.
1:17:14 > 1:17:17You know me, I like a challenge.
1:17:17 > 1:17:19And my goodness, this is a challenge!
1:17:19 > 1:17:24Because first of all, I have never bought or thought of buying a pinball machine.
1:17:24 > 1:17:31Actually, Mark, this is a vintage pachinko machine, most likely from the 1970s,
1:17:31 > 1:17:36similar to pinball, but you play it without flippers and many more balls.
1:17:36 > 1:17:39It's still a phenomenally popular game in Japan,
1:17:39 > 1:17:45making an annual turnover double that of the entire Japanese car industry.
1:17:45 > 1:17:49There is something intriguing about it. I just want a bit of fun.
1:17:49 > 1:17:53Like Cyndi Lauper, I just want to have a bit of fun.
1:17:53 > 1:18:00For all I know, this could be the rarest model of Japanese pinball machine that could be worth £1,000.
1:18:00 > 1:18:05On the other hand, it could be the most common and it's worth £30 or £40.
1:18:05 > 1:18:09Brace yourself. The machine's ticket price is a hefty £300.
1:18:09 > 1:18:12How much am I going to have to pay for this?
1:18:12 > 1:18:16As little as possible because I don't know what it's worth,
1:18:16 > 1:18:21but come on my journey with me and give me a round of applause if I get it.
1:18:21 > 1:18:27I'm not sure if applause is appropriate, so will Dean and Martin strike a wizard deal?
1:18:27 > 1:18:30- 145, Mark, come on. - You couldn't go to 130?
1:18:30 > 1:18:33Cut the deal at 140 and we're done.
1:18:34 > 1:18:38- He's a hard man. - What am I going to do? I'm mad.
1:18:38 > 1:18:43I don't know anything about it, but I just think it's so retro, isn't it?
1:18:43 > 1:18:46I think I'm crazy, but you only live life once
1:18:46 > 1:18:50and I'm going to make a massive profit on this at £140.
1:18:50 > 1:18:53- Lovely.- Thank you very much indeed. - Cheers.
1:18:57 > 1:18:59Where's the money?
1:18:59 > 1:19:01LAUGHTER
1:19:01 > 1:19:07He's either utterly foolhardy or devastatingly clever. I don't know which.
1:19:07 > 1:19:11- Thanks a lot.- Thanks very much. - Good to meet you. Wish me luck.
1:19:11 > 1:19:14So with the last purchase in the bag,
1:19:14 > 1:19:19it's time for our dear experts to reveal to each other what they've bought.
1:19:19 > 1:19:22Oh! Oh, very nice.
1:19:22 > 1:19:25First up, Mark's Chinese stool. Or is it?
1:19:25 > 1:19:28Is it a stool or a table?
1:19:28 > 1:19:31- It's a...- A little table? - I think it is a table.
1:19:31 > 1:19:36- I sat on it and it takes my weight, so it's quite strong.- I love it.
1:19:36 > 1:19:40- The boy's done well. How much? - £50.- Oh, fine.
1:19:40 > 1:19:43- Is that a hit?- It's a hit. I'll open my treasure chest.
1:19:43 > 1:19:46- Yes, quite.- Here it comes.
1:19:48 > 1:19:50- Oh!- A little...
1:19:50 > 1:19:54I think that's rather sweet, a little sort of Canterbury...
1:19:54 > 1:19:58- It's a small magazine rack. - Age?- About the same as you(!)
1:19:58 > 1:20:04- 1900.- I think it might be a bit earlier.- 1890?- Yeah, I like it, Margie. Did you pay a lot?
1:20:04 > 1:20:08- 25.- Oh, I think that's very reasonable.
1:20:08 > 1:20:11Will Margie be charmed by Mark's glass urn?
1:20:11 > 1:20:18I just thought anybody with a nice retro or a nice Georgian house would love that for their sideboard.
1:20:18 > 1:20:21- I really like it. - I thought it was very "you".
1:20:21 > 1:20:24- Very elegant. - Yeah, that's what I meant.
1:20:24 > 1:20:26Oh, darling!
1:20:26 > 1:20:31- So how much?- £35. - That's OK, isn't it?
1:20:31 > 1:20:35- I thought 50, 55 on a good day. - CLINKING SOUND
1:20:35 > 1:20:39That rang a bell. More glass now. Margie's this time.
1:20:39 > 1:20:43- Oh, I love it, a snake.- I know. - Where did you get that from?
1:20:43 > 1:20:47It's ice glass. I thought it was crizzled, but it's not.
1:20:47 > 1:20:51It's lovely to have three. That would grace anyone's dining table.
1:20:51 > 1:20:54And that snake is very nicely decorated.
1:20:54 > 1:20:56- It's cranberry, isn't it?- Probably.
1:20:56 > 1:20:59- What did you pay? - Are you ready?- Yeah.
1:20:59 > 1:21:02£38.
1:21:02 > 1:21:04- For the three?- Yeah. - That's ridiculous.
1:21:04 > 1:21:10- I can see those making £100.- Ah! - Unless they get broken before we get to the saleroom.
1:21:10 > 1:21:13Do I sense the old green-eyed monster there, Mark?
1:21:13 > 1:21:19- Those are really nice. No damage. - They're quite nicely modelled.
1:21:19 > 1:21:23And there's quite a quirky charm to the faces of the newts.
1:21:23 > 1:21:26- We're doing quite well today. - I hope so.
1:21:26 > 1:21:30- So how much?- £30 for the pair. - Oh, golly gee!
1:21:30 > 1:21:33- There's got to be a profit, hasn't there?- I hope so.
1:21:33 > 1:21:37Can Margie whistle up some enthusiasm for her next item?
1:21:37 > 1:21:41Even to have on the table as decoration.
1:21:41 > 1:21:48So many of my friends in Brighton have got one of these on their table as decoration(!)
1:21:48 > 1:21:54I'm saying, if you don't want to play it, I've put it all together and we've had a bit of a blow on it.
1:21:54 > 1:21:57- You've had a blow on it? - To make sure it's working.
1:21:57 > 1:22:01- £25?- Bargain. - Right. Job done.
1:22:01 > 1:22:03Now, don't get too smug there, Mark.
1:22:04 > 1:22:07LAUGHTER
1:22:07 > 1:22:11- It's a seesaw, isn't it? - That is so sweet.
1:22:11 > 1:22:16- I thought it was such a lovely piece of vintage. - £10?- A little bit more.- 12?
1:22:16 > 1:22:18£13.50.
1:22:18 > 1:22:21You obviously drove a hard bargain!
1:22:21 > 1:22:27- How about that?- Let me look. - It's a water filter, as you know. - I know what it is.
1:22:27 > 1:22:32- 1880-ish.- Yes. I love the children. Are they satyrs? - It's classical, isn't it?
1:22:32 > 1:22:36- That is rather sweet.- I thought this was really quite a nice thing.
1:22:36 > 1:22:39And it had a price tag of 160 on it.
1:22:39 > 1:22:43- Gosh, that's a lot.- Yeah. - Lovely quality.- Yeah.
1:22:43 > 1:22:46- 55.- Gosh, that sounds terribly reasonable.
1:22:46 > 1:22:51- It ought to make £100, £120. It's worth that.- Yeah.
1:22:51 > 1:22:55- Are you ready for this?- I am ready. - I don't think you are, Margie.
1:22:55 > 1:22:58- Oh, my gosh!- Told you.
1:22:58 > 1:23:03- It's a wall-mounted pinball machine. - Oh, my goodness!- Japanese.
1:23:03 > 1:23:08- Does it work?- I haven't the faintest idea. We can't plug it in.
1:23:08 > 1:23:12- Don't you think it's fabulous? - Well, yeah, it is. It's very interesting.
1:23:12 > 1:23:17- Tell me how much first.- I don't want to tell you.- You've paid a lot?
1:23:17 > 1:23:20If I say it quickly, it might not sound bad. £140.
1:23:21 > 1:23:26- It's a gamble, isn't it?- Do you know the market?- No.- Neither do I.
1:23:26 > 1:23:30- I can't wait for the auction. - I can't.- I really can't.
1:23:30 > 1:23:34We've really got some... ridiculous items, haven't we?
1:23:34 > 1:23:38So come on then. What do they really think?
1:23:38 > 1:23:45The Doulton water filter, I noticed a few chips around the rim. I don't know if it'll make much of a profit.
1:23:45 > 1:23:49His Chinese little table is OK, but it's not fantastic quality.
1:23:49 > 1:23:52Maybe he's in for £20, £30 on that.
1:23:52 > 1:23:57I'm really pleased with mine. I'd rather have my lots than his, but I would say that!
1:23:57 > 1:24:02The fourth leg of this road trip began in the village of Burley, Hampshire,
1:24:02 > 1:24:06and will conclude at the auction in Sherborne, Dorset.
1:24:06 > 1:24:11Margie's been a loser so far this week, but Mark is keeping her spirits up.
1:24:11 > 1:24:13What can go wrong?
1:24:13 > 1:24:16Quite a lot, actually.
1:24:21 > 1:24:25Margie Cooper spent exactly £143 on four auction lots,
1:24:25 > 1:24:29including a set of three ice glass compote dishes,
1:24:29 > 1:24:32a small bamboo Canterbury and a silver-plated flute...
1:24:32 > 1:24:34PLAYS NOTE
1:24:35 > 1:24:41..whereas Mark Stacey pushed the boat out by spending £268.50 on five auction lots,
1:24:41 > 1:24:46including a vintage Japanese pachinko machine,
1:24:46 > 1:24:48a pair of Art Deco style pink vases
1:24:48 > 1:24:51and an oriental stool.
1:24:51 > 1:24:53I might take a long boat to China!
1:24:53 > 1:24:57Charterhouse Auction House is the theatre of dreams today,
1:24:57 > 1:25:03so what does our auctioneer Richard Bromell make of our experts' choices?
1:25:03 > 1:25:09The Japanese pinball machine, there's a lot of plastic in it, it won't be dear, but someone will enjoy it.
1:25:09 > 1:25:14The chinoiserie-decorated Canterbury, great fun. Where do you put your Country Life?
1:25:14 > 1:25:20I think there'll be a reasonable profit on that. It's a very good, useful item.
1:25:20 > 1:25:23Settle down, everyone. It's time for the auction to begin.
1:25:23 > 1:25:27- I don't want to even look, Margie. - Be brave.
1:25:27 > 1:25:31Margie's first under the hammer with her Doulton water filter.
1:25:31 > 1:25:35Straight in at £20. At £20. 5. 30.
1:25:35 > 1:25:375. 40. 5. 50.
1:25:37 > 1:25:3960. £60 in the third row.
1:25:39 > 1:25:43£60 seated third row. Selling this time at 60, at 60...
1:25:44 > 1:25:47I think that was very good.
1:25:47 > 1:25:52It's a profit, but after the auction house takes off their commission, only a small one.
1:25:52 > 1:25:57- I thought it was going to go for about 80 to 90. - Yeah, well, think again.
1:25:58 > 1:26:00Both experts have gambled on glass,
1:26:00 > 1:26:03so let's see how Mark's urn gets on.
1:26:03 > 1:26:06Straight in here at £20. 20. 5. 30. 5.
1:26:06 > 1:26:0940. 5. 50. 60. 70.
1:26:09 > 1:26:12Against the internet at £70.
1:26:12 > 1:26:16Selling, going away at £70, this time at 70...
1:26:16 > 1:26:20- That's fantastic. - It's a reasonable start.
1:26:20 > 1:26:24It looks like it paid off - a solid profit for Mark.
1:26:24 > 1:26:28- That's cheered you up?- I've doubled my money, yeah. Thanks, Margie.
1:26:28 > 1:26:30Now, will anyone succumb
1:26:30 > 1:26:33to the temptations of that cranberry snake?
1:26:33 > 1:26:3740. 5. 50. 60. £60 I have now and I'm out.
1:26:37 > 1:26:3970. 80. 90.
1:26:39 > 1:26:42Selling away this time at 90...
1:26:43 > 1:26:45- Great.- I was close.
1:26:45 > 1:26:48- I said 100.- Yes, spot-on!
1:26:48 > 1:26:52An excellent profit for Margie, her best this week so far.
1:26:52 > 1:26:56- That's my best one yet. - That's a good profit.- Yeah.
1:26:56 > 1:26:58And I needed it.
1:27:00 > 1:27:04Yes, you guessed it, more glass. Mark's this time.
1:27:04 > 1:27:07- 20. 5. 30. £30 I have. - Oh, come on.- £30.
1:27:07 > 1:27:11£30 and away now. 5. 40. At £40 now. You're out at the back at £40.
1:27:11 > 1:27:15Here selling, going away this time at £40, at 40...
1:27:15 > 1:27:17- Can't be bad.- Disappointing.
1:27:17 > 1:27:21It's a profit, but Mark clearly hoped for more.
1:27:21 > 1:27:23I'm disappointed with those.
1:27:23 > 1:27:27I would have liked those to have done a bit more.
1:27:27 > 1:27:31Anyone want to learn the flute out there?
1:27:31 > 1:27:34I'm straight in at £15. Here at £15. 20. 5.
1:27:34 > 1:27:3830. 5. At £35. Against the internet there at £35.
1:27:38 > 1:27:42- Oh, no.- 40 at the back now, thank you. £40 standing. £40 standing.
1:27:42 > 1:27:46Done, going, selling this time away at 40, at 40...
1:27:46 > 1:27:50I thought that might have done a bit more actually, don't you?
1:27:50 > 1:27:53It certainly played to someone's tune.
1:27:53 > 1:27:56It's a profit. You're not used to those sort of things.
1:27:58 > 1:28:01So be grateful. Don't get carried away.
1:28:03 > 1:28:07Cheeky! Now, will Mark's pachinko machine hit the jackpot?
1:28:07 > 1:28:11£50, the pinball machine? £50 and away for it?
1:28:11 > 1:28:1350? £50 and away? 50?
1:28:13 > 1:28:17- 30 to start it?- Oh, no. - £30, the pinball machine?
1:28:17 > 1:28:20Internet bid at 30. £30 I have now. £35 I have.
1:28:20 > 1:28:22New bidder at 35. 40. 5.
1:28:22 > 1:28:27At £45 I have. At £45 I have. £45. 50. 60.
1:28:27 > 1:28:32- It's going up on the internet. - At £60.- Come on, a bit more.
1:28:32 > 1:28:36- It's the internet. - Selling at 60, at 60...
1:28:36 > 1:28:38- Oh, dear.- Oh, no.
1:28:38 > 1:28:40£80 down!
1:28:40 > 1:28:44It was a gamble, Mark, and you lost. Big time!
1:28:44 > 1:28:49I did it as a favour. I wanted to come down to your level again.
1:28:49 > 1:28:51I want to give you a chance.
1:28:51 > 1:28:57Can Margie keep the momentum going with her bamboo Canterbury?
1:28:57 > 1:29:0015. 20. 5. 30. 5. At 35... 40.
1:29:00 > 1:29:04- 5. 50. £50 and I'm out. - You've doubled your money.
1:29:04 > 1:29:08At £50, the internet is out. It's seated right there at 50, at 50...
1:29:08 > 1:29:11- Well done. You've doubled your money.- I have. Bless it!
1:29:11 > 1:29:16Margie is making steady, good profits. Watch out, Mark!
1:29:16 > 1:29:19You've had a very good day. Are you pleased?
1:29:19 > 1:29:21- I'm getting there.- You are.
1:29:21 > 1:29:23Mark's tin horse is up next.
1:29:23 > 1:29:27Internet, £10 I have. At 10. £10, the maiden bid.
1:29:27 > 1:29:31- 10. 15. 20. £20 and away now... - It's a profit.
1:29:31 > 1:29:34- Come on.- 25. Still on the net at 25.
1:29:34 > 1:29:38At £25 I have. At 25. Internet bid at 25. 30.
1:29:38 > 1:29:41- Selling, going away at 30, at 30... - That's all right.
1:29:41 > 1:29:46That's what I thought, that's what I hoped for. I hoped for £30.
1:29:46 > 1:29:49Straight past the finishing post. Well done, Mark.
1:29:49 > 1:29:53I'm clawing my way back, but I've only got one lot to claw with.
1:29:53 > 1:29:55And it's you up next, Mark,
1:29:55 > 1:29:58with the last lot of the day -
1:29:58 > 1:30:01the Chinese table or stool or whatever it is.
1:30:01 > 1:30:05£50 and away for it? 50? 30 for it? 30 bid, thank you. At 30.
1:30:05 > 1:30:075. 40. 5. 50. 60.
1:30:07 > 1:30:09The bid is at the back at 60.
1:30:09 > 1:30:13- I'm out now. In the room at £60. - Where's the net?
1:30:13 > 1:30:15Selling away at 60, at 60...
1:30:15 > 1:30:17Nope.
1:30:18 > 1:30:21Well, it didn't save me, did it?
1:30:21 > 1:30:25No, your dragons failed to set the auction alight.
1:30:26 > 1:30:29I'm glad to get out of here. That's me done.
1:30:29 > 1:30:36You might feel a bit glum, Mark, and no surprise. You've been well and truly beaten by Margie today.
1:30:37 > 1:30:41Mark Stacey started this leg with £337.16,
1:30:41 > 1:30:48but his gamble on that pachinko machine meant he made a crushing loss of £55.30.
1:30:48 > 1:30:53That leaves him with £281.86 to take forward tomorrow...
1:30:54 > 1:30:59..whereas Margie Cooper began with £192.06
1:30:59 > 1:31:03and made a profit of £53.80 after auction costs.
1:31:03 > 1:31:09That makes her today's winner and gives her £245.86 to spend tomorrow.
1:31:09 > 1:31:11Well done, Margie.
1:31:12 > 1:31:16- Gosh! So it's all down to tomorrow. - Tomorrow is another day.
1:31:18 > 1:31:22Join us tomorrow as Margie goes on the offensive.
1:31:22 > 1:31:25- All right, 15 quid.- A tenner? - Stop whining. No.
1:31:25 > 1:31:28And Mark finds a friend for life.
1:31:28 > 1:31:31Go to sleep, little froggie.
