0:00:02 > 0:00:05'It's the nation's favourite antiques experts with £200 each,

0:00:05 > 0:00:09'a classic car and a goal - to scour Britain for antiques.'

0:00:09 > 0:00:11That hurts.

0:00:12 > 0:00:16'The aim? To make the biggest profit at auction,

0:00:16 > 0:00:18'but it's no mean feat.'

0:00:18 > 0:00:21'There'll be worthy winners and valiant losers.'

0:00:21 > 0:00:22So much?!

0:00:22 > 0:00:27'So will it be the high road to glory or the slow road to disaster?'

0:00:27 > 0:00:29SHE LAUGHS

0:00:29 > 0:00:31'This is the Antiques Road Trip!'

0:00:33 > 0:00:35'Yeah!'

0:00:38 > 0:00:41'It's the final leg of our Antiques Road Trip

0:00:41 > 0:00:44'with experts David Barby and Margie Cooper

0:00:44 > 0:00:47'in the 1979 Mercedes convertible.'

0:00:47 > 0:00:50'They've had a jolly old jaunt,

0:00:50 > 0:00:53'covering many miles, but it's all about to come to a head.'

0:00:53 > 0:00:56So I think it's all to play for.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58All to play for.

0:00:58 > 0:01:02Now, I think your tactics should be to spend the lot.

0:01:02 > 0:01:05Oh. And your tactics should be not to spend much.

0:01:05 > 0:01:09It's all in the luck of the gods and which shop you go to.

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Yeah.

0:01:11 > 0:01:15'With a passion for antiques, David is the master of ceramics

0:01:15 > 0:01:17'and the supremo of seduction.'

0:01:17 > 0:01:21- Can I give you a kiss?- Yes.

0:01:21 > 0:01:26'Ha! He also knows if you want to get ahead, you need to get a hat.'

0:01:30 > 0:01:35'And what's good for the goose is good for the gander.'

0:01:35 > 0:01:38It must be for amateur theatricals!

0:01:38 > 0:01:42'But who will be crowned the winner after the final auction?'

0:01:42 > 0:01:48'During the road trip, Margie has increased her initial £200

0:01:48 > 0:01:51'to an admirable £339.30.'

0:01:51 > 0:01:54'David, on the other hand,

0:01:54 > 0:02:00'has grown his pot of cash to an impressive £517.34.'

0:02:02 > 0:02:05'The route for the week takes our intrepid travellers

0:02:05 > 0:02:08'from Alnwick in Northumberland, down the Northeast coast

0:02:08 > 0:02:11'and onto the final destination of Lincoln.'

0:02:11 > 0:02:14'But today's trip begins in Heanor in Derbyshire.'

0:02:16 > 0:02:18'Heanor is a small town

0:02:18 > 0:02:22'in the Amber Valley and in 2006 it was awarded the special accolade

0:02:22 > 0:02:26'of being the second most English place in the country.'

0:02:26 > 0:02:28'So what's the plan, boys and girls?'

0:02:28 > 0:02:34Over the last week, we've done it all - silver, ceramics, furniture,

0:02:34 > 0:02:37we've done quirky... What do we do now?

0:02:37 > 0:02:39More quirky!

0:02:39 > 0:02:41THEY LAUGH

0:02:41 > 0:02:45'The first stop of the day is the local antiques centre.'

0:02:45 > 0:02:50'With over 200 dealers here, there should be something for them both.'

0:02:50 > 0:02:56I hate being in the same shop as you. I'm intimidated by David Barby.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58I think I'll get there before you!

0:02:58 > 0:03:00'No need to run, children!'

0:03:00 > 0:03:02I'm first!

0:03:02 > 0:03:07- Hello!- Good morning.- Hello there. What an Aladdin's cave!

0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Which way are you heading?- I'll go that way.- OK, I'll go this way.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14- See you later.- OK, good luck.

0:03:22 > 0:03:24Oohhh. Oh, that's quite nice.

0:03:24 > 0:03:29'With at least 180 cabinets to look through, this could take time,

0:03:29 > 0:03:33'unless, of course, you know exactly what you're after.'

0:03:33 > 0:03:37This is a nice little beaker and it's got three legs,

0:03:37 > 0:03:39so if the table's uneven,

0:03:39 > 0:03:43this is going to remain static cos it's on three ball legs.

0:03:43 > 0:03:46'The Danish beaker is 18th century in style,

0:03:46 > 0:03:48'but this is a 20th century copy

0:03:48 > 0:03:51'by designer David Anderson - highly collectable.'

0:03:51 > 0:03:55Nice piece of silver. £169 - that really is over the top.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59- Dare I say, it's got to be under 100.- Right, OK.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Well, I can see what I can do.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04'As manager Jane phones the dealer,

0:04:04 > 0:04:08'magpie David has spotted a Norwegian silver brooch.'

0:04:08 > 0:04:11This is magnificent. This is early 20th century,

0:04:11 > 0:04:13Scandinavian silver.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17And it's not silver. We can't classify it as silver,

0:04:17 > 0:04:20it's 830, not 925,

0:04:20 > 0:04:22so it's white metal.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26But I might just enquire the price on that.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29When's he gonna go?

0:04:29 > 0:04:32- I can hear his dulcet tones. - 'Wait your turn, Margie.'

0:04:32 > 0:04:36- What's your best on that? - 25's going to be the best.

0:04:36 > 0:04:42- You couldn't do it any lower?- Not really. I'm struggling to go lower.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46Because you're getting it down from 49, so...

0:04:46 > 0:04:51And that would be at... £100.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53These belong to the same people.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56These belong to the same people, yeah.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59You've already quoted me £20 on that.

0:04:59 > 0:05:0120... I said 25!

0:05:01 > 0:05:03'Cheeky beggar!'

0:05:03 > 0:05:08- Not 20?- Oh, dear, you drive a hard bargain, don't you?

0:05:08 > 0:05:11- THEY CHUCKLE - So if we say £20 on that,

0:05:11 > 0:05:14can you come down to 70 on that one?

0:05:14 > 0:05:18So 90 for the two? Yes, go on, then.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20OK. Thank you.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23What have I done?!

0:05:23 > 0:05:26'With so much to choose from,

0:05:26 > 0:05:30'it was only a matter of time before Margie found silver of her own.'

0:05:30 > 0:05:34Not had a chance to date it, only just come in, to be honest.

0:05:34 > 0:05:38I mean, I can let you have it for 150, I think it's worth that.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Yeah, that'd have to be... I'd insult you.

0:05:42 > 0:05:47You won't insult me, I've got a thick skin, I'm a dealer!

0:05:47 > 0:05:51- I'd want to buy that at 95. - No.- I quite understand.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Has David bought something?

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Yes. So maybe I SHOULD let you have it for that.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Have you been doing deals with him?

0:05:59 > 0:06:03If you find anything, I will do a deal with you.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05- Just found that. - Yeah, I know.

0:06:05 > 0:06:10- You can have it for 95 if you want. - Oh, no, I don't want pity.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12'But while they haggle

0:06:12 > 0:06:16'over the silver box, Jane has something else up her sleeve.'

0:06:16 > 0:06:21- This is... That's very, very pretty, this one.- Carlton Ware.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- That one... That one can be 45 to you.- Mmm.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28It's a lidded jar, maybe one of a pair.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30Made by Carlton Ware.

0:06:30 > 0:06:36Wiltshaw and Robinson. W&R, Wiltshaw and Robinson from Stoke-on-Trent.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Did David see this? No. Or has he seen it?

0:06:39 > 0:06:40No.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42That, you said was...

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- 45.- 45, yeah.

0:06:45 > 0:06:51'What about that silver box, Margie? It was £150, but for you - 95.'

0:06:51 > 0:06:55It's 1922, the hallmark tells me, which is there.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57And it's, uh,

0:06:57 > 0:07:00tortoiseshell lid with silver, uh, inlay.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04Silver and tortoiseshell were made for each other.

0:07:04 > 0:07:08'Now it's illegal to sell pieces containing tortoiseshell after 1947,

0:07:08 > 0:07:12'but this box dates from 1922.'

0:07:12 > 0:07:15So, Jane, can I have both or don't you want to do that?

0:07:15 > 0:07:19No, you can have that for... for... 95.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- You're very kind! - Uhhhh!

0:07:22 > 0:07:25THEY LAUGH I feel awful now.

0:07:25 > 0:07:27'For a silver box at £95

0:07:27 > 0:07:30'and a Carlton Ware vase for £45?'

0:07:30 > 0:07:32'The job's a good 'un!'

0:07:32 > 0:07:35'With two purchases each, they're back on the road.'

0:07:35 > 0:07:41'David is driving Margie to Newstead Abbey in Nottinghamshire,

0:07:41 > 0:07:44'former home of the original bad boy of poetry, Lord Byron.'

0:07:44 > 0:07:46'The Abbey was founded in 1163,

0:07:46 > 0:07:50'but after the dissolution of the monasteries in the 16th century,

0:07:50 > 0:07:55'it was secured by the Barons Byron and is best known as the home

0:07:55 > 0:07:58'of the romantic poet Lord George Byron.'

0:07:58 > 0:08:02'Margie is meeting with Penny Beniston to find out more.'

0:08:02 > 0:08:04This is our grand salon.

0:08:04 > 0:08:08Oh, another beautiful room. There he is.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12- Lovely portrait of him, isn't it? Very handsome.- Yes.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16- Painted by Thomas Phillips. - And how old was he?

0:08:16 > 0:08:18It was painted in 1813,

0:08:18 > 0:08:21- so 22.- Oh, his prime.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24He was like a pop star, wasn't he?

0:08:24 > 0:08:28Yes. He was, uh, a very, erm... big celebrity.

0:08:28 > 0:08:33- And had he started writing then? - Yes, he started at a very young age.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36- Very young age. - All that wonderful talent.

0:08:36 > 0:08:41He was starting to get his work published, starting to get known.

0:08:46 > 0:08:52'Born in 1788, Byron's literary reputation was often overshadowed

0:08:52 > 0:08:55'by his shocking aristocratic excesses.'

0:08:58 > 0:09:00When Byron came here aged 21,

0:09:00 > 0:09:04he... dug the cloisters,

0:09:04 > 0:09:06looking for treasure.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10Didn't find any, but found some skulls,

0:09:10 > 0:09:12so, Byron being Byron,

0:09:12 > 0:09:15decided to send it to a local silversmith

0:09:15 > 0:09:19and have it mounted to make it into a drinking vessel.

0:09:19 > 0:09:23- Very disrespectful, wasn't it? - It was.

0:09:23 > 0:09:29'Byron's rebellious temperament was often a mark of his poems -

0:09:29 > 0:09:32'among them Don Juan and Childe Harold's Pilgrimage.'

0:09:32 > 0:09:36This is the iconic room. This is Byron's study.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39- Where all his inspiration came from. - Yes. Yes.

0:09:39 > 0:09:43Did he ever write down WHAT inspired him to write?

0:09:43 > 0:09:47He wrote a lot about how Newstead Abbey had inspired him

0:09:47 > 0:09:50and his loves of his life inspired him,

0:09:50 > 0:09:52his mother inspired him,

0:09:52 > 0:09:55his dog - he was inspired by everything.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59'It was Byron's sexual exploits that he's best remembered for.'

0:09:59 > 0:10:04'One lover, married Lady Caroline Lamb, described him as "mad, bad

0:10:04 > 0:10:06'"and dangerous to know".'

0:10:06 > 0:10:12Oh, my word. Did I ever think that I would go into Byron's bedroom?

0:10:12 > 0:10:14This is Byron's bed.

0:10:14 > 0:10:18- Gosh. He was known as a great Lothario, wasn't he?- He was.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21He was young when he died, he was only 36,

0:10:21 > 0:10:25but in that time, he'd had well over 200 lovers.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27When did he write his poetry?!

0:10:27 > 0:10:31He was inspired by everything that he did here,

0:10:31 > 0:10:34so he must've stayed up very late at night.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36So if these walls could speak...

0:10:36 > 0:10:39Oh, yes. I wonder what they'd say.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41Might learn a thing or two!

0:10:41 > 0:10:46'Leaving behind a trail of broken hearts,

0:10:46 > 0:10:50'Byron fled Britain in 1816 and died fighting for Greek independence.'

0:10:50 > 0:10:54'His heart was buried in Greece, his body was buried

0:10:54 > 0:10:58'near Newstead Abbey, making him a part of England evermore.'

0:10:58 > 0:11:01'Leaving Margie in Byron's bedroom,

0:11:01 > 0:11:05'the other man in her life, David Barby,

0:11:05 > 0:11:09'has travelled 30 miles east to Newark.'

0:11:09 > 0:11:11'Situated on the River Trent,

0:11:11 > 0:11:16'the town's skyline is dominated by the remains of Newark Castle,

0:11:16 > 0:11:18'but as magnificent as it is,

0:11:18 > 0:11:22'David isn't here for sightseeing.'

0:11:24 > 0:11:28'It's the last shop of the day and time is short.'

0:11:31 > 0:11:33I like that.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36- 'What is it, David?' - They've labelled it a peat bucket.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38It's nice and heavy.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41It's got some age to it.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44I like the brass banding on it.

0:11:44 > 0:11:48I'm going to ask how much this can be. I rather like this.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Still filthy.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54'It's £48. I wonder if David can work his magic.'

0:11:54 > 0:11:58'The dealer isn't on site, so manager Janet makes a call.'

0:11:58 > 0:12:02'But with the shop about to close, negotiating time is limited.'

0:12:02 > 0:12:04'Over to you, Janet.'

0:12:05 > 0:12:09Well, we managed to get 40 on this.

0:12:09 > 0:12:13- Just 40? - I'm sorry, that's all we could get.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16- Oh, dear, this is terrible. - 'What, spending money?'

0:12:20 > 0:12:22One...

0:12:24 > 0:12:26..two. Thank you.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29'Cheer up, David. It's not that bad.'

0:12:29 > 0:12:31HE SIGHS

0:12:31 > 0:12:35'Let's hope the peat bucket doesn't PAIL into insignificance

0:12:35 > 0:12:38'when it hits the auction, eh? Night-night, David.'

0:12:38 > 0:12:43'It's a brand-new day and as our experts head onto the open road,

0:12:43 > 0:12:48'David is worried that Margie is gaining ground.'

0:12:48 > 0:12:50You're poised to beat me.

0:12:50 > 0:12:54- You're like a praying mantis, you're there... - SHE LAUGHS

0:12:54 > 0:12:56- ..on my heels!- I know.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59I knew you'd be a formidable opponent.

0:12:59 > 0:13:04'So far, David has spent £130 on three lots -

0:13:04 > 0:13:08'a Norwegian brooch, a Danish silver beaker and a peat bucket -

0:13:08 > 0:13:13'which leaves him £387.34 to splash.'

0:13:15 > 0:13:19'Margie, meanwhile, has spent £140 on two items -

0:13:19 > 0:13:23'a Carlton Ware vase with lid and a silver and tortoiseshell box -

0:13:23 > 0:13:28'leaving her with £199.30 for the day ahead.'

0:13:29 > 0:13:31'With David in the driving seat,

0:13:31 > 0:13:36'our happy campers head north to their next destination in Worksop.'

0:13:36 > 0:13:41- Ah, last drop-off. - I feel very emotional about this.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Very, very emotional. - THEY LAUGH

0:13:43 > 0:13:46- Looks interesting. - It certainly does.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50- All the very best.- And to you.

0:13:50 > 0:13:54- OK, enjoy it.- See you later.- Bye.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00- I'm Margie.- I'm David.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03- If I can have a quick look round? - By all means.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05'Now & Then, as the name suggests,

0:14:05 > 0:14:08'is a mixture of old and new.'

0:14:11 > 0:14:16Hmm. Sort of, retro 1960s dressing table.

0:14:16 > 0:14:19I like the price.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22And Meredew is quite a well-known maker.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28And, sort of,... veneer. Let's just have a look.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Dave, can I have a word, please?

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Can we do a good deal on that?

0:14:33 > 0:14:35- We can. - SHE GIGGLES

0:14:35 > 0:14:37I can do that for 15 for you.

0:14:37 > 0:14:42- Ohh... That's ridiculous. - It is. Giveaway.- Absolute giveaway.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Put it there. SHE LAUGHS

0:14:46 > 0:14:48'Oh, groovy, Barby.'

0:14:50 > 0:14:54'From retro to Retford - David has driven on to Empire Antiques,

0:14:54 > 0:14:56'his final shop of the day.'

0:15:07 > 0:15:09Dealer looks busy at the moment,

0:15:09 > 0:15:13so I'm going to start perambulating around here.

0:15:13 > 0:15:17'Good idea! A bit of perabulating will always

0:15:17 > 0:15:19'get you somewhere.'

0:15:19 > 0:15:22What is interesting about this selection

0:15:22 > 0:15:24is that it is all contained

0:15:24 > 0:15:27in a pine cabinet-maker's box.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30I would put the box at £40-50.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32The planes -

0:15:32 > 0:15:37and there's 40 of them - I'd put at round about a fiver each.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39So, potentially,

0:15:39 > 0:15:41this could go between

0:15:41 > 0:15:43£200 and £250,

0:15:43 > 0:15:45if not more.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48- Hiya.- Hello.- Hello, David.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51- You're?- Doug Goddard. - You own this place?- Yes, sir.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55Oh, well done. Don't call me "sir"! It's David!

0:15:55 > 0:15:58- I'm looking at this box of tools. - Right, OK.

0:15:58 > 0:16:03- Erm, I see you've got £180 on it... - Yeah.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06- HE EXHALES - What's your best...- Too cheap?!

0:16:06 > 0:16:08THEY LAUGH

0:16:09 > 0:16:12You've hit the nail on the head!

0:16:12 > 0:16:15No, what's the very best you can do on that?

0:16:15 > 0:16:18What about 140?

0:16:22 > 0:16:26- Would you consider coming down a little lower?- Make me an offer.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29I'd like to see it round about 100.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36- What about 120? - Split the difference at 110.- Done.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40- And that's how you do business! - Absolutely! - THEY LAUGH

0:16:40 > 0:16:45I'll continue on my perambulations. I need one more other item.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49- If you need me, you know where I am. - Thank you very much.- Pleasure.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51'A little more perambulating

0:16:51 > 0:16:55'and magpie David is drawn to the silver once more.'

0:16:55 > 0:16:57What's the best price on these?

0:16:57 > 0:17:01I can't really go any lower than 30 on them, I'm afraid.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05So these would be, what,... about 1960?

0:17:05 > 0:17:07Yeah. They're fairly modern.

0:17:07 > 0:17:12- They're still photograph frames. - Yeah, they're still pretty.

0:17:12 > 0:17:1530 quid.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18You know, I never buy anything modern.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20- No.- Never.

0:17:20 > 0:17:24But they're not modern, they're vintage. THEY LAUGH

0:17:25 > 0:17:29- And they're a pair, aren't they? - Yeah.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31At £30.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Done.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38HE LAUGHS Did I jump the gun, then?

0:17:39 > 0:17:41Oh, no,

0:17:41 > 0:17:44I'm not going to get you down on those!

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Well, that's my two objects.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49So that's 110 for the box

0:17:49 > 0:17:52and, uh, £30 for these, so £140.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Right. I'm so delighted I've bought from you.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01'Shopping complete, David drives onto Gainsborough

0:18:01 > 0:18:05'where he plans to let the train take the strain.'

0:18:06 > 0:18:11- ON TANNOY: - "Bing-bong! Will passenger David Barby please go to platform one

0:18:11 > 0:18:15"to meet Richard Wood. Bing-bong!"

0:18:20 > 0:18:23Wow, wow, wow! This reminds me of my youth.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26I had a train set when I was quite young.

0:18:26 > 0:18:30I don't think mine was as grand as that, probably a bit larger.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Well, the models that would be available in your youth,

0:18:34 > 0:18:38manufactured by Hornby and Bassett-Lowke,

0:18:38 > 0:18:41were crude replicas of the real thing,

0:18:41 > 0:18:44whereas these are scale models of the real thing.

0:18:44 > 0:18:46Right, so I had the crude version.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49I'm sorry about that!

0:18:50 > 0:18:52In fact, at the time,

0:18:52 > 0:18:56- my father played with it more than I did!- That's often the case.

0:18:56 > 0:19:01'The Gainsborough Model Railway Society was established in 1946

0:19:01 > 0:19:04'by a group of like-minded enthusiasts.'

0:19:04 > 0:19:07'Within four years, their collection had grown so large,

0:19:07 > 0:19:10'they found a new home in this former school.'

0:19:10 > 0:19:15If I'm a member of the public, where do you start this tour?

0:19:15 > 0:19:19The first thing we do is walk down past King's Cross.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22The buildings, signal box and all of this here

0:19:22 > 0:19:25is modelled on the real King's Cross.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28- This is absolutely magical.- Yes.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32Absolutely magical. You've got no idea,

0:19:32 > 0:19:35until you get to this level, the people...

0:19:35 > 0:19:39The hours and hours of work it took to create it, it's tremendous.

0:19:39 > 0:19:43- How long did it take? - This was done over about ten years.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47Looking through here, you get some idea of the perspective.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49And the passengers,

0:19:49 > 0:19:52this is brilliant.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55Is there something of a child still in you?

0:19:55 > 0:19:58- That you love playing with these? - I think there must be.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01And what a wonderful form of relaxation.

0:20:01 > 0:20:06Well, it doesn't get you into so much trouble as other hobbies!

0:20:06 > 0:20:09'And what a hobby. This collection recreates

0:20:09 > 0:20:12'the line from King's Cross to Leeds

0:20:12 > 0:20:16'using a mile and a half of track and 160 trains.'

0:20:16 > 0:20:21'All the locos are hand-made and take 200-300 hours to produce.'

0:20:21 > 0:20:24'It's a Boy's Own dream!'

0:20:27 > 0:20:29- Now, then, David.- Yes.

0:20:29 > 0:20:33Would you like to have a go at operating one of the trains?

0:20:33 > 0:20:36- Do I have a controller's hat? - Definitely. I think it's there.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39- Is it really?- Yes. THEY LAUGH

0:20:39 > 0:20:41Right, Mick. Please stand by me.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45- I will do that. - So I don't press the wrong buttons

0:20:45 > 0:20:49or throw the wrong switches - I think that's the expression!

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Right. Now, what happens?

0:20:51 > 0:20:54That's your bell to King's Cross,

0:20:54 > 0:20:57- that's your controller from King's Cross.- Right.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59That's off. That's on.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03- OK.- That's full speed.- Right, OK.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06BELL SOUNDS

0:21:06 > 0:21:08It's leaving King's Cross.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11'Not sure if that's Thomas the Tank Engine,

0:21:11 > 0:21:14'but I just spotted the Fat Controller. Sorry, David.'

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Ohhh! There we are!

0:21:22 > 0:21:24What a sight - look at that!

0:21:24 > 0:21:26'Boys and their toys, eh?'

0:21:26 > 0:21:29'Look at him.'

0:21:29 > 0:21:33- Where's it going to come through? - Through the tunnel over there.

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Top or bottom?

0:21:37 > 0:21:40- Bottom.- Whoa! There we are.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43- Don't forget the controller. - Yes, sorry.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Now switch it off.

0:21:48 > 0:21:49Beautiful.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52The only thing that was missing -

0:21:52 > 0:21:57my father used to put the end of his cigarette into the funnel!

0:21:57 > 0:21:59So it would smoke as it went round!

0:21:59 > 0:22:04Mick, you've given me great pleasure. All of you, thank you.

0:22:05 > 0:22:07'Whilst David was train spotting,

0:22:07 > 0:22:11'Margie has made tracks of her own to Market Rasen.'

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Well, wish me luck.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16'Her final port of call is Wold Antiques.'

0:22:16 > 0:22:18'Be bold!'

0:22:18 > 0:22:22- Good afternoon.- Hello. - DOOR BELL JANGLES

0:22:22 > 0:22:24- I'm Margie. - How do you do?

0:22:24 > 0:22:27- And you're?- Lynn.- Right, Lynn,

0:22:27 > 0:22:32- I'll just shoot round.- I'm here to help.- Thank you. Lovely shop.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Thank you.

0:22:36 > 0:22:40These are nice, aren't they?

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Surveyor's tape. Measuring tape.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47Extremely good condition.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50£34. That's cheap, isn't it?

0:22:50 > 0:22:53It's nice. Very nice.

0:22:55 > 0:22:58- They do sell well. - Yeah, I'm sure.

0:22:58 > 0:22:59Distracted.

0:22:59 > 0:23:03- I'm going to look upstairs if that's all right.- Please do.

0:23:03 > 0:23:06'Come on, Margie. Tick-tock.'

0:23:07 > 0:23:10Here we go. Oooh...

0:23:10 > 0:23:13'These mirrors date from around 1890.'

0:23:13 > 0:23:17'Oriental in style, they feature carved dragons

0:23:17 > 0:23:20'with ivory eyes.'

0:23:20 > 0:23:22I like those. Yeah.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Lynn? Have you got a minute?

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Yes, no problem.

0:23:27 > 0:23:31I rather like these two mirrors,

0:23:31 > 0:23:33being a pair, being Oriental.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36- They're stunning.- How much are they?

0:23:36 > 0:23:38Well, the best I can do

0:23:38 > 0:23:40is 125.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44- 125. That's absolute... - It is, I'm afraid.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47- 125.- OK?

0:23:47 > 0:23:49- Deal done.- Deal done.

0:23:49 > 0:23:54'That's a big purchase by Margie's standards and a bit of a gamble.'

0:23:54 > 0:23:56That's one, two, three,

0:23:56 > 0:23:59four, five, six.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01- Thank you.- And £5.- Lovely.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03You were very helpful.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05'And she's not done yet.'

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Lynn, shall I go for something else?

0:24:08 > 0:24:10You should go for the measure.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14- Surveyor's measure. - Yeah. £20, please.- Oh, done.

0:24:14 > 0:24:16Done!

0:24:16 > 0:24:19- Thank you.- There you go.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25- Yeah, bye.- Bye!- Thank you.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30'So, with the shopping over, it's time to show and tell.'

0:24:30 > 0:24:33Margie, this is the last reveal.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35And as a gentleman,

0:24:35 > 0:24:37I think ladies should go first.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40- Are you ready?- Yes.

0:24:40 > 0:24:42SHE HUMS

0:24:42 > 0:24:44Daa!

0:24:44 > 0:24:48How very, very brave.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52I'm just going to stand and look at this... dressing table.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55- Who's it by? - A company called Meredew.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Is it 1956? '58?

0:24:57 > 0:25:00- I think '60s.- '60s.- Definitely '60s.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05I imagine, because it's brave, you paid very little. I think about £20.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07- 15.- 15...

0:25:07 > 0:25:09'It's a bargain.'

0:25:09 > 0:25:12What could you get for £15?

0:25:12 > 0:25:14A Meredew dressing table!

0:25:14 > 0:25:18- I'm quite pleased with it. - I think it's very nice.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22- How pretty is that?- Is it Carlton? - Yeah. Early Carlton.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24Ooh, that's lovely.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26- Lovely colour.- Yes.

0:25:26 > 0:25:32- I love that. I think it'll make 60 at the auction.- Is that all?

0:25:32 > 0:25:37It's rubbed on the top and a crack on the bottom, but it's very nice!

0:25:39 > 0:25:42- You cheeky monkey. - It's very nice. I like that.

0:25:42 > 0:25:47And my third choice has to be this lovely, lovely silver piece.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Tortoiseshell.- Yeah, that's lovely.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53With inlay decoration. Oh, that's beautiful.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57- Yeah.- Yeah. Those two, I love.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59And I paid...?

0:25:59 > 0:26:01- 50?- Oh...- 60?

0:26:01 > 0:26:03- No!- How much?

0:26:03 > 0:26:06- You can't buy that for 60. - How much did you pay for it?

0:26:06 > 0:26:0895.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12'I'm not sure David would've paid that.'

0:26:12 > 0:26:17- Right, it's my turn now. - Yes, your turn.- Oh, dear, oh, dear.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20- Is that a tool box?- Yes.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23Oh, my goodness. You've done well there.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25Do you think so?

0:26:25 > 0:26:29- Well, whatever you've paid. How much?- Have a guess.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Er, 150?

0:26:32 > 0:26:34No. No, I didn't.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36- 200?- No, I didn't.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40Go on, tell me.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44I paid 110.

0:26:44 > 0:26:46I think you have done amazingly.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49Right, what's the next thing?

0:26:50 > 0:26:53It's this.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57- Tell me about that. - Well, I think this is stunning.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59- Isn't it sweet?- Absolutely stunning.

0:26:59 > 0:27:04- How much did you pay?- Er, that's probably one of my expensive buys.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08- Have a guess.- No, I'm not. I'm too fed up to guess!

0:27:08 > 0:27:12I paid... £20.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17And which shop was that?

0:27:17 > 0:27:20The shop we went in together!

0:27:21 > 0:27:24- That is well found.- I love that.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26- I wanted that for myself.- Fantastic.

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Absolutely beautiful.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- And are these silver?- Er, yes.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34- Yeah.- They're a pair.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37- About 1960s. - Are they marked up?- Yes.- Where?

0:27:37 > 0:27:40- Margie,...- Ahh! - ..just like a damn inquisition!

0:27:40 > 0:27:43- I'm a bit grumpy, to be honest.- Why?

0:27:43 > 0:27:46- SHE EXHALES - There - you breathed on them!

0:27:46 > 0:27:49I'm trying hard to be a good sport!

0:27:49 > 0:27:52And I'm finding it a bit difficult!

0:27:52 > 0:27:55- You've done well. - No glass on that one.- How much?

0:27:55 > 0:27:59- Again, that was an expensive buy. - Oh, don't start. Go on.

0:27:59 > 0:28:02£30, the two.

0:28:02 > 0:28:04SHE CHUCKLES

0:28:04 > 0:28:08- £15 each.- Well done! Give me your hand, my friend.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12'They spied the buys, but who will win the final prize?'

0:28:12 > 0:28:14My favourite item of Margie's

0:28:14 > 0:28:19would be the silver box with the tortoiseshell inlay. I like that.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22I'd buy it myself. Wouldn't pay £90 though!

0:28:22 > 0:28:26'It was £95, David. Pay attention. What about you, Margie?'

0:28:26 > 0:28:31The tool box. You know, they usually empty them out or leave a couple in.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33He's got 40 in there!

0:28:33 > 0:28:35They're worth, 10, 15, £20 each.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37Ahhh...

0:28:37 > 0:28:40But it couldn't happen to a nicer person

0:28:40 > 0:28:45than David Barby. But I'm still a bit miffed!

0:28:47 > 0:28:49'There's just one last stop

0:28:49 > 0:28:52'as our experts head for the final auction in Lincoln.'

0:28:57 > 0:29:01'St Mary's Cathedral was reputedly the tallest building in the world

0:29:01 > 0:29:04'until 1549. The town's other accolade -

0:29:04 > 0:29:09'it's the finishing line for this road trip. Ha!'

0:29:09 > 0:29:12Margie, I... I feel sad, almost bordering on tears.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16You know, it's the end of an affair.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18THEY LAUGH Shhh!

0:29:18 > 0:29:20It is like that, isn't it?

0:29:20 > 0:29:25- Don't tell everybody! - You've been such a part of my life!

0:29:25 > 0:29:27And you in mine.

0:29:27 > 0:29:33- It's been fabulous. I- know so much about you - those intimate moments.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36'Ahem. Moving swiftly on. Today, our experts

0:29:36 > 0:29:39'are going head to head at Unique Auctions.'

0:29:39 > 0:29:44'Let's see what auctioneer Terry Woodcock thinks of their buys.'

0:29:44 > 0:29:48I think the one that will surprise me today is going to be

0:29:48 > 0:29:51the retro dressing table.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54That could do £20, it could do £120.

0:29:54 > 0:29:57It's one of those unknown quantities.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00But it is very, very clean.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02And the tool box. The box on its own

0:30:02 > 0:30:08has a good value, but you've got the tools inside too. It's a nice set.

0:30:08 > 0:30:09It'll be a good day.

0:30:09 > 0:30:15'David began today's road trip with £517.34

0:30:15 > 0:30:18'and has spent £270 on five lots,

0:30:18 > 0:30:23'leaving him with a cash stash of £247.34.'

0:30:25 > 0:30:29'Margie started out with £339.30

0:30:29 > 0:30:32'and has also bought five lots, costing £300,

0:30:32 > 0:30:36'leaving her with a reserve of £39.30.'

0:30:38 > 0:30:41'First up, it's Margie's 1930's surveyor's tape.'

0:30:41 > 0:30:44'But will it measure up?'

0:30:44 > 0:30:47Who'll start me at £20? £10, then?

0:30:47 > 0:30:49£10 I've got.

0:33:27 > 0:33:31- Are you upset?- Of course I'm not! I'm delighted for you.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34Bless you, you're such a good sport.

0:33:34 > 0:33:38'Can David fight back with a pair of silver picture frames?'

0:33:38 > 0:33:41To save time, I'm going straight in at £80.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44- How much? - It should make twice that.- 18?

0:34:20 > 0:34:23- But congratulations. - Thank you, Margie.

0:34:23 > 0:34:27'The master has done it again and turned a £30 spend

0:34:27 > 0:34:30'into a £125 profit. Wow.'

0:34:30 > 0:34:33Well, you've really rushed ahead now.

0:34:33 > 0:34:37We've still got your silver box to come up.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41'And here it is. Can the silver and tortoiseshell box

0:34:41 > 0:34:43'put Margie back in contention?'

0:35:21 > 0:35:25- 80 it is. - I think it should've gone for more.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Should've gone for about 120.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29'Slow off the mark,

0:35:29 > 0:35:32'the tortoiseshell box proves unfashionable here.'

0:35:32 > 0:35:36Oh, flip, flip, flip. I'm going off silver, you know.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39'Next up for David, it's the Norwegian brooch,

0:35:39 > 0:35:42'but will it A-FJORD him a big profit?'

0:38:31 > 0:38:36I thought that'd run on. And the frames, which aren't worth so much -

0:38:36 > 0:38:40- it's funny, isn't it? - Yeah.- It's a puzzle, isn't it?

0:38:40 > 0:38:43'A £67 profit is nothing to be puzzled about.'

0:38:46 > 0:38:50'A bit of retro now - Margie's vintage dressing table.'
