# Ah, I'm wicked and I'm lazy

0:00:020:00:07

# Ah, don't you want to save me. #

0:00:070:00:13

We've got two famous cities for you today, Bargain Hunters.

0:00:130:00:18

I hope you're feeling energetic!

0:00:180:00:19

Me? I like to keep in shape, but generally only one step at a time.

0:00:190:00:24

Whoa! That's enough exercise for one day.

0:00:240:00:28

We're under starter's orders, let's go bargain hunting!

0:00:280:00:31

# Don't stop till you get enough! #

0:00:590:01:01

On Bargain Hunt Famous Finds, we take two celebrities who are

0:01:010:01:05

joined by a friend or family member

0:01:050:01:07

and challenge them to buy three antiques with £300.

0:01:070:01:11

We then go to auction, sell the items and see if our teams can make a profit.

0:01:110:01:15

We're about to let loose our famous faces here in North West London

0:01:180:01:23

today at Alfie's Antiques Market.

0:01:230:01:25

They'll be timed as they track

0:01:250:01:28

down their three items, hopefully accompanied by their

0:01:280:01:32

experts, if they're fit enough to keep up, and don't peak too early.

0:01:320:01:37

Let's limber up before we meet our first team of famous faces.

0:01:370:01:42

Hup, two, hup two.

0:01:420:01:45

For the Red team, we have Dame Kelly Holmes.

0:01:490:01:52

She gripped the nation in 2004 at the Olympic Games in Athens

0:01:520:01:56

when she won two gold medals for the 800 and 1500 metres.

0:01:560:02:01

Kelly became the first British woman to win two gold medals

0:02:010:02:05

and the country's first double gold winner at the same Games since 1920.

0:02:050:02:10

But the glory didn't stop there,

0:02:100:02:12

and in 2005, the Queen created her a dame.

0:02:120:02:16

Today, however, she'll be taking on her toughest challenge yet.

0:02:160:02:20

I don't doubt she'll be aiming for victory.

0:02:200:02:23

Welcome to Bargain Hunt, Kelly.

0:02:240:02:26

-Thank you.

-Have you been in training for today's event?

0:02:260:02:30

I really don't know much about antiques, I have to say.

0:02:300:02:32

But I'm very competitive, so we'll give it our best shot.

0:02:320:02:36

You don't need to know much about antiques.

0:02:360:02:38

No, something that looks good.

0:02:380:02:40

Looks good and makes load of money.

0:02:400:02:41

That's what we want. Who've you brought on your team?

0:02:410:02:44

-I've brought my mother dear, Pam.

-Hi, Pam!

0:02:440:02:48

-Hello Tim. Nice to meet you.

-Very nice to meet you.

0:02:480:02:50

So who's going to be the boss today?

0:02:500:02:52

-There's only one boss in our family. It's me!

-Is it?

-I'll try!

0:02:520:02:57

-Has Kelly always been competitive, Pam?

-She has actually.

0:02:570:03:00

Always known what she wanted to do.

0:03:000:03:02

She was determined to get it and she has achieved that.

0:03:020:03:05

What's it like when you see your little scrap, this was once a babe

0:03:050:03:10

in arms, a sweet little thing, who's in an Olympic stadium and you're

0:03:100:03:15

the mother watching the race. What does it feel like?

0:03:150:03:19

Even the build-up I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack.

0:03:190:03:22

Palpitations, you feel ill.

0:03:220:03:23

But then I've done that through all her races

0:03:230:03:26

when I'm watching on television.

0:03:260:03:28

You know anything can go wrong on the track.

0:03:280:03:31

You get a knock or trip.

0:03:310:03:33

It's awful.

0:03:330:03:35

My brothers hate watching with my mum. She's going...

0:03:350:03:38

SHE HYPERVENTILATES

0:03:380:03:40

"Shut up, just watch it!"

0:03:400:03:41

-You're a Bargain Hunt fan.

-Definitely.

0:03:410:03:43

-What do you like about the programme most?

-It's amazing what you can

0:03:430:03:46

buy which you think doesn't look anything and yet can make money.

0:03:460:03:49

Or the reverse.

0:03:490:03:51

I'm trying to steer her off glass because I've been told

0:03:510:03:54

it's not even worth looking.

0:03:540:03:56

But she's adamant, so I'll go past all the glass.

0:03:560:04:00

There's loads of stuff here. You're going to have great fun.

0:04:000:04:04

Let's see who the Reds are up against.

0:04:040:04:07

For the Blue team we have Sally Gunnell OBE.

0:04:070:04:11

Hurdler Sally is the only woman to have ever held Olympic,

0:04:110:04:16

World, Commonwealth and European gold medals at the same time.

0:04:160:04:20

Although she retired from athletics in 1997, she still remains the only

0:04:200:04:24

woman in athletics history to hold this prestigious record.

0:04:240:04:28

I'm sure she hasn't lost her competitive streak,

0:04:280:04:31

but will she be breaking any Bargain Hunt records today?

0:04:310:04:35

Welcome to Bargain Hunt, Sally.

0:04:390:04:41

-Thank you. I'm looking forward to it.

-How familiar are you with antiques?

0:04:410:04:45

Well, I grew up with them in Mum and Dad's house.

0:04:450:04:49

There was lots around, furniture, pictures. But oblivious to it all.

0:04:490:04:54

So who have you brought to help on your team?

0:04:540:04:56

I've brought a very good friend of mine, Emma Rogers.

0:04:560:04:59

How do you do, Emma? Very nice to meet you too.

0:04:590:05:02

I've picked Emma because she's a very good haggler. I reckon when we've got

0:05:020:05:06

to get the right price for our pieces, she's the woman.

0:05:060:05:09

Is that true, Ems?

0:05:090:05:11

-Absolutely not.

-Oh!

0:05:110:05:13

I'm sorry. I think she may be sorely disappointed.

0:05:130:05:16

Have you got any antiques in your house?

0:05:160:05:18

I haven't really. I did grow up with them.

0:05:180:05:21

Like Sally, I was surrounded by antiques. Very understated.

0:05:210:05:24

My parents have never told us much about them, but I have found out since coming on the programme

0:05:240:05:29

they have a Clarice Cliff plate.

0:05:290:05:32

-None of us knew existed.

-So you're planning to nick that one, are you?

-I think so!

0:05:320:05:37

Sally, have you got a plan as to what you're going to buy today?

0:05:370:05:39

We are going to pick things we like.

0:05:390:05:42

I think that's important. I'm looking really, we're big jewellery people.

0:05:420:05:46

I always think the price of gold and silver and that

0:05:460:05:49

sort of thing would be good. So we're going to stick to that.

0:05:490:05:52

Maybe a nice china plate. Do you think we're talking

0:05:520:05:56

-in the right direction?

-You're talking my language.

0:05:560:05:58

You're talking the sort of language that's going to scare the Red team.

0:05:580:06:01

-Are you scared, girls?

-I am after that!

0:06:010:06:04

We'll be all right.

0:06:060:06:07

You'll be all right. You are very competitive after all.

0:06:070:06:10

I think we should have a little handshake.

0:06:100:06:12

This is all very friendly between our teams. Look at this!

0:06:120:06:16

Very, very willing. That's lovely.

0:06:160:06:19

Anyway, here's the money moment, £300 apiece.

0:06:190:06:22

You know the rules, your experts await.

0:06:220:06:25

Off you go and very good luck.

0:06:250:06:28

Wow! A competition between two of Britain's most famous Olympic athletes.

0:06:280:06:34

I'm feeling exhausted already.

0:06:340:06:36

But who today is going to win the bargain hunting gold?

0:06:360:06:40

# Gold! #

0:06:400:06:42

So, let's meet the experts.

0:06:440:06:47

Keeping the Reds on track is former PE teacher, Philip Serrell.

0:06:480:06:53

And leaping over every hurdle for the Blues

0:06:540:06:56

is supreme athlete, Mark Stacey.

0:06:560:06:59

They're off, but they must be selective and not just pick up any old rubbish.

0:06:590:07:05

-That includes you, Sally.

-Just modelling my frog bag.

0:07:050:07:10

Are you hopping mad?! Now put it back.

0:07:100:07:15

I wonder if the Reds are getting into the groove.

0:07:170:07:21

This is brilliant.

0:07:230:07:28

What's really sad is I can remember, that's Chris Montez, isn't it?

0:07:300:07:35

-Let's Dance.

-That is brilliant.

0:07:350:07:37

-Do you like that?

-I love it.

0:07:370:07:39

-That's quite crazy.

-Why do you like that?

0:07:390:07:41

Because it's something different and it's my era.

0:07:410:07:43

You can just imagine beach parties and you're dancing there.

0:07:430:07:48

-I like it, it's quite quirky.

-I think it's a great bit of fun.

0:07:480:07:52

We've got a 45 there,

0:07:520:07:55

another one in here, clearly not the original wrappers for them.

0:07:550:07:59

A carrying box for the records, the vinyls.

0:07:590:08:02

This is clearly battery operated.

0:08:020:08:05

It plays 45s. A little portable record player by EAR.

0:08:050:08:10

It's about 1960.

0:08:100:08:12

When these sold new, they were 14 guineas. In 1960!

0:08:120:08:16

That was probably not far off the average bloke's wages for a week.

0:08:160:08:22

-So today that would be, I don't know, £300 to £500?

-How much is it?

0:08:220:08:27

Let's get straight to the bone.

0:08:270:08:29

No competitive interest here, is there?!

0:08:290:08:31

It's what we're going to make. No pressure, Phil!

0:08:310:08:35

It's priced at 125 quid.

0:08:350:08:38

That's too dear.

0:08:380:08:39

I think if you have a bad day at auction, it's 20 quid.

0:08:390:08:44

If you have a good day at auction, it might be 80 quid.

0:08:440:08:47

So, I think a fair price, if we can get it, is around the £50 mark.

0:08:470:08:51

That way we go to auction, we might make 20 quid, we might lose 20 quid.

0:08:510:08:56

-Do you like it, really?

-I love it.

-It's quirky.

0:08:560:08:59

Shall we walk out to Chris Montez playing? Do the jive then.

0:08:590:09:03

# Hey baby, won't you take a chance

0:09:030:09:06

# Let me have this dance, let's dance! #

0:09:060:09:09

Well, they danced the record player into their bargain basket for £55.

0:09:100:09:15

But has Sally stumbled into the wrong lane

0:09:150:09:18

by going straight for the jewellery?

0:09:180:09:20

-What have you got there?

-Do you like it?

-I do. I like it a lot.

0:09:240:09:27

-It's not very old, is it?

-It's lovely. It's quite simple.

0:09:270:09:30

-What do you like about it, the simplicity?

-I like the simplicity -

0:09:300:09:34

the way it sits in that V, and the roundness and the colour of the stone.

0:09:340:09:39

I don't know if you're meant to go for things you really like.

0:09:390:09:44

I think it helps. If you like it, there's a chance somebody else might like it.

0:09:440:09:48

I'm sure you've got impeccable taste.

0:09:480:09:51

I don't know about that! How old do you think that is?

0:09:510:09:53

I can tell you, it's very '60s or '70s.

0:09:530:09:56

-This is almost certainly going to be Scandinavian in design.

-OK.

0:09:560:10:01

These tend to be referred to as torque necklaces.

0:10:010:10:04

In this case, we've got a little concentric circle drop there

0:10:040:10:08

with a little stone in the middle - semi precious agate.

0:10:080:10:10

And this is cabouchon, it's not cut, it's been polished into a little round shape.

0:10:100:10:15

-Do you like it?

-I think it's lovely.

0:10:150:10:17

I like its simplicity. I think it could appeal to lots of people.

0:10:170:10:21

-It's very now, isn't it?

-It's quite contemporary.

0:10:210:10:24

-It is.

-The key question, Sally, is how much are they asking for it?

0:10:240:10:28

I think they want £145.

0:10:280:10:29

It's not too bad, not over the top, but we need to get the price down.

0:10:290:10:34

-Are you capable of going in and fluttering your eyelashes at these dealers?

-You are?

0:10:340:10:39

-Now's your time. Why not?

-Good luck!

0:10:390:10:44

I think we should go for it.

0:10:440:10:46

'Ooh, those girls really mean business.

0:10:480:10:50

'They snapped up the silver necklace for 120.

0:10:500:10:53

'But let's take a break from the shopping and move from silver

0:10:550:10:59

'and talk gold with Kelly.'

0:10:590:11:01

So, the Holmes family on the roof. How lovely!

0:11:010:11:04

Now, Kelly, what have you bought?

0:11:040:11:08

I've brought two of my 12 medals, my two golds from Athens.

0:11:080:11:13

-Which is which?

-This one's the 800 metres.

0:11:130:11:16

Fortunately, we had our names engraved on the back, and the times.

0:11:160:11:21

People always say, "How much are they worth?" For me, they're priceless.

0:11:210:11:25

They're beyond price. So this is the 1,500 metres?

0:11:250:11:28

Yeah. I do know they're not solid gold, otherwise they wouldn't be out,

0:11:280:11:33

or I would've pawned them myself or something.

0:11:330:11:36

They said there was about 16 grams of gold and the rest is a bronze mix.

0:11:360:11:40

-The kind of core of it.

-Yeah.

0:11:400:11:45

This is a big thrill for me to be able to handle one of these medals.

0:11:450:11:48

-Thank you very much.

-When you talk about value it's impossible really to accurately assess.

0:11:480:11:55

But I've had a word with a friend of mine,

0:11:550:11:57

and he tells me, the auction value - you're never going to sell them,

0:11:570:12:02

they're yours for ever - would be in the order of £40,000 to £50,000.

0:12:020:12:06

The insurance figure should be £100,000.

0:12:060:12:10

-Blimey!

-You've worked really hard...

-I have and they're coming with me!

0:12:100:12:15

I'm having these melted down and they're coming in my coffin.

0:12:150:12:19

I've worked too hard for these.

0:12:190:12:21

So no, those ones are coming all the way.

0:12:210:12:24

That's very, very special anyway.

0:12:240:12:26

Pam, what have you brought?

0:12:260:12:28

Just this plate I bought 15-20 years ago

0:12:280:12:31

in an antique market in Rye, Sussex.

0:12:310:12:34

This is a fruit plate, isn't it?

0:12:340:12:36

-Yes.

-You've got these impressed designs of pears and what not.

0:12:360:12:39

It's an interesting technique in manufacture, because it's blown into a mould.

0:12:390:12:45

To get this grey, flecky finish, it's been dipped in acid.

0:12:450:12:50

You'd mask out the areas you don't

0:12:500:12:52

want to go grey and leave clear the ones you do.

0:12:520:12:55

Take it out of the acid and take the masking wax off and you get

0:12:550:12:58

the frosting on those details, which is really very pretty.

0:12:580:13:01

I'd date it probably around about 1950, that sort of period.

0:13:010:13:06

Which curiously enough is just like something that I made earlier. No.

0:13:060:13:11

This is a wee piece of glass that I found. I wanted to show it to you.

0:13:110:13:14

-That's lovely.

-For me it does it in modern glass.

0:13:140:13:19

It's an impractical vase on a small base, so it would fall over easily.

0:13:190:13:25

But what this big lump of glass has done, is give a big show-off area

0:13:250:13:29

for the man who's done the engraving.

0:13:290:13:31

What I like about it is this lovely entwined intricate engraved tree with the foliage,

0:13:310:13:38

with these odd birds knocking around, which are beautiful.

0:13:380:13:42

-So what's it worth?

-I guess it would bring £1,000, something like that.

0:13:420:13:46

It's incredible. And my mother's?

0:13:460:13:49

You'd probably get £80 to £150.

0:13:490:13:54

Really? I paid £25.

0:13:540:13:56

We'd better put that in the auction then.

0:13:560:13:58

You are naughty, you girls.

0:13:580:14:01

'Yes, naughty. And obviously forgetting this is Bargain Hunt,

0:14:030:14:07

'not Cash In The Celebrity Attic! Let's check in with the Blues.'

0:14:070:14:12

-Listen up you two. Put the mini ties down.

0:14:120:14:14

-What do you think?

-I quite like that.

0:14:140:14:17

What attracted you to this piece, Emma?

0:14:170:14:19

It's not overstated. It's quite simple.

0:14:190:14:22

Some things can be too ornate and too twee but I like the basic pattern.

0:14:220:14:29

This is quite a clean line.

0:14:290:14:31

Even though you've got reeding on the edge and stepping on the feet, this is geometric.

0:14:310:14:35

It's not real silver though, is it?

0:14:350:14:38

We'll have to have a look, Sally. There should be marks somewhere.

0:14:380:14:41

Yes, right in the base there, can you see the word "sterling"?

0:14:410:14:45

-Yes.

-The first thing that tells us is it's actually American.

0:14:450:14:49

-American?

-Not English.

0:14:490:14:52

And you've got little marks above

0:14:520:14:53

that which look like a hallmark but they're not quite a hallmark.

0:14:530:14:57

With some sterling marks, they did try to put an English mark on,

0:14:570:15:02

but they couldn't. So they reversed it, the line is on the wrong side.

0:15:020:15:05

This is American sterling silver, probably the first half of the 20th

0:15:050:15:10

century, maybe 1920s to 1940s.

0:15:100:15:12

-It'd be lovely with apples in or oranges.

-It would.

0:15:120:15:15

-Maybe have it on a hall table, the middle of a table.

0:15:150:15:18

You could put your business cards in there.

0:15:180:15:20

I quite like that, I would put it on my dining room table.

0:15:200:15:23

What I don't like is the £180 price tag.

0:15:230:15:27

-That's a lot of money.

-It is a lot of money.

0:15:270:15:30

It's a nice piece but not a lot of weight.

0:15:300:15:32

Having said that, it is silver.

0:15:320:15:34

We could call it silver. It's high enough quality, sterling,

0:15:340:15:38

-but £180 is a little bit on the high side.

-Steep is it?

0:15:380:15:41

Let me see what I can do.

0:15:410:15:44

'That Emma claimed not to be good at haggling.

0:15:440:15:48

'But she skinned the price of the fruit dish down to £75.'

0:15:480:15:53

-What do you think about this?

-What is that?

0:15:540:15:57

I haven't got a clue.

0:15:570:15:58

Oh gosh! No, don't!

0:15:580:16:01

-Normally these things have a handle that long and that bit makes it about that long.

-OK.

0:16:070:16:14

I think this is probably for blokes of a slightly rotund nature.

0:16:140:16:17

Easy! Imagine in the 19th century, you got your fancy shoes on

0:16:170:16:25

and it's a button hook and you did the buttons on your shoes with it.

0:16:250:16:28

Right! Or undone your laces.

0:16:280:16:31

-It is silver, is it?

-The label says it's hallmarked

0:16:310:16:33

in Edinburgh in 1810 and the makers were Muirhead and Arthur.

0:16:330:16:38

-Has it got a hallmark on it?

-There's a hallmark which I

0:16:380:16:41

can't read, so I'm going to have to trust the label.

0:16:410:16:45

-Can you see it there?

-I can see that.

0:16:450:16:47

Is it a collector's item?

0:16:470:16:49

These were very collectable ten years ago.

0:16:490:16:53

The market for this sort of trinkety stuff has fallen off a bit.

0:16:530:16:56

-How much is it?

-It's up for £25 but I'm sure I can get a bargain.

0:16:560:17:01

-What do you think?

-I think it's cheap enough for that.

0:17:010:17:04

-It's got to make £20 in an auction and with a bit of luck, it might make 40 quid.

-That would be good.

0:17:050:17:10

Sounds better.

0:17:100:17:12

Let's see if I can get it for 20 or something.

0:17:120:17:15

You want to go and do the deal with that. Shall we go and see if we can

0:17:150:17:20

-find something else?

-I'll go hunting.

0:17:200:17:23

You go that way and we'll go that way and we'll meet in the middle.

0:17:230:17:27

'With not much room to manoeuvre,

0:17:270:17:28

'Kelly knocked a fiver off, securing the button hook for £20.

0:17:280:17:33

'We've seen and heard that Sally's keen on jewellery, so let's get some

0:17:330:17:37

'fresh air and talk bling.'

0:17:370:17:40

What have you brought to show me?

0:17:400:17:42

I've brought along a ring that my husband bought me after

0:17:420:17:46

producing him three sons. I don't know whether it's worth much

0:17:460:17:49

or not really but I guess it's the sentimental value more than anything.

0:17:490:17:53

-So it's your prize for producing three children?

-Yes.

0:17:530:17:56

That's rather interesting, isn't it?

0:17:560:17:59

This style loosely is art deco, so '20s or '30s I would guess.

0:17:590:18:04

What you've got here is a socking great single stone -

0:18:040:18:09

a diamond in the middle. And you've got these nice stepped shoulders

0:18:090:18:14

which are inset with tiny diamonds.

0:18:140:18:16

That's called mille grand set,

0:18:160:18:19

which sort of set the big stone up and it looks really nice actually.

0:18:190:18:24

A gemmologist would look at that stone and try to assess the clarity.

0:18:240:18:28

Exactly how clear these diamonds are does affect its value.

0:18:280:18:33

I think I'd better give it back to you before we lose it through a crack on the table.

0:18:330:18:38

Have you ever considered buying

0:18:380:18:41

sporting related stuff as a collectable?

0:18:410:18:44

-I've never seen any really.

-They've got one or two bits here at Alfie's.

0:18:440:18:48

This thing is chromium plated,

0:18:480:18:51

so it's not precious in any way, not silver or anything.

0:18:510:18:54

But it does represent the late '30s novelty.

0:18:540:18:58

-Tennis was big then as well.

-A big sport.

0:18:580:19:02

Something like that at Alfie's would cost you £150.

0:19:020:19:06

And footy is endlessly popular.

0:19:060:19:10

-With this, I can imagine.

-A little brass job.

0:19:100:19:14

It's been mounted on an oak plaque.

0:19:140:19:17

But I would guess this is probably Swiss or German, because if you open it up, it plays...

0:19:170:19:21

PLAYS TUNE

0:19:210:19:22

-Oh, right!

-How kitsch is that?

0:19:220:19:26

Lovely!

0:19:260:19:27

And I suppose originally it would've held cigarettes or something.

0:19:270:19:32

But quite fun. It's yours for under £100.

0:19:320:19:36

-When would that have been made?

-Late '30s.

0:19:360:19:41

-It's all good fun.

-Yeah.

0:19:410:19:42

Tell me, are you having a great day?

0:19:420:19:44

I've had a fab day. Very confused.

0:19:440:19:47

-Are you?

-I've got very expensive tastes.

0:19:470:19:50

'Keeping an eye on the budget is important with only £300 to spend.

0:19:500:19:56

'So far the teams have bought two items each with one more to find.

0:19:560:20:01

'Let's catch up with the Reds.'

0:20:010:20:03

Stop looking at the bling.

0:20:060:20:08

Look at that.

0:20:080:20:10

-What's that then?

-What's that?

0:20:100:20:14

Hallmarked silver. Assayed in Birmingham

0:20:140:20:18

in the early part of the 20th century. Original silk lining.

0:20:180:20:22

A bit tatty. A photograph frame.

0:20:220:20:25

Who's going to buy that?

0:20:250:20:27

This is an opportunity for a bit of added value.

0:20:270:20:29

I know you've been modest about what you've done.

0:20:290:20:33

But I think if you're up for this, if we can get a photograph of you

0:20:330:20:37

with your gold medals, and you put that in there and you sign it...

0:20:370:20:43

-Are you sure?

-Positive. Trust me,

0:20:430:20:48

someone will pay. It's 15 quid but I think

0:20:480:20:51

-the Dame Kelly Holmes factor...

-I could sign it for the person who buys it.

0:20:510:20:54

-Yeah. I don't want to embarrass you.

-Can we can get away with it?

0:20:540:20:58

Yeah. You've got be creative in these things.

0:20:580:21:01

Something different, isn't it?

0:21:010:21:02

I reckon, I hope,

0:21:020:21:04

we buy that for £15, have the photograph done,

0:21:040:21:07

you personalise it and sign it, we get that in the catalogue.

0:21:070:21:10

It's important they catalogue it and it's got to make £30 to £50.

0:21:100:21:14

-Easy.

-Are you up for that?

-Let's do it. Don't tell the others though!

0:21:140:21:18

'Wow! Those cheeky Reds. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained.'

0:21:200:21:25

We do expect our experts to have the Midas touch

0:21:280:21:32

when it comes to searching for those profit-boosting bonus buys.

0:21:320:21:37

'They'll use any cash the team hasn't spent to find a surprise item.

0:21:370:21:43

'This will be revealed at the auction, where the teams decide to take it or leave it.

0:21:430:21:47

'Hopefully it will boost their profits, but it could also plunge them deeper into debt.'

0:21:470:21:52

No pressure there, boys.

0:21:540:21:56

But I wouldn't want to be in your running shoes if

0:21:560:21:59

you don't come up with the goods.

0:21:590:22:01

Emma, you mentioned you've got a wonderful Clarice Cliff plaque

0:22:060:22:10

at home today, so look what I found you both.

0:22:100:22:12

-Is it really?

-It's Clarice Cliff.

-Wow!

0:22:120:22:14

We won't be able to afford that.

0:22:140:22:16

Well, let me tell you about it.

0:22:160:22:18

It's quite a simple pattern, this ribbed form, very 1930s,

0:22:180:22:22

very Clarice Cliff. It's part of the lotus range of vases.

0:22:220:22:27

Sometimes these have one handle here, or two handles there.

0:22:270:22:31

We've got a simple design, we've got a riverscape I suppose,

0:22:310:22:37

with a weeping willow.

0:22:370:22:38

Some nice summer flowers there and lily pads.

0:22:380:22:41

It's not as ornate as some of the...

0:22:410:22:45

It's not as jazzy.

0:22:450:22:47

It's not got those wonderful bold strokes on it,

0:22:470:22:51

the bright orange design.

0:22:510:22:54

Underneath we've got a Clarice Cliff mark.

0:22:540:22:59

But we don't have the Bazaar mark. The ones that

0:22:590:23:03

they used in the height of the period from 1929-36.

0:23:030:23:08

Just a little bit after that, 1938 maybe.

0:23:080:23:12

Surely it's going to be too expensive for us?

0:23:120:23:16

We haven't got that much left.

0:23:160:23:17

It was marked up at £220 but I've had a word with the lovely

0:23:170:23:22

dealer and believe this or not, she's offered it to us for £100.

0:23:220:23:27

No! What have you got do?

0:23:270:23:29

It could mean the difference between winning and losing.

0:23:290:23:33

That's the catch. Shall I go and get it?

0:23:330:23:35

-Go on then.

-See you later.

0:23:350:23:37

'This is turning into a fierce competition.

0:23:370:23:39

'The glory could hang on either team's last item.'

0:23:390:23:42

That's it, the shopping's over.

0:23:420:23:45

They've crossed the finishing line, but before we find out who's won,

0:23:450:23:49

let's check out on what Kelly and herself mother have bought.

0:23:490:23:52

The Reds rocked off with the '60s record player.

0:23:550:23:59

I love that. A vintage record player.

0:23:590:24:01

It's not vintage. They're only 45s, I'm not vintage.

0:24:010:24:07

Now, now girls. Luckily they agreed

0:24:070:24:09

on the 19th century silver button hook, for which they paid just £20.

0:24:090:24:14

And finally, could it be a photo finish with the £15 picture frame?

0:24:140:24:19

We've done something a bit naughty really.

0:24:190:24:23

I've had a picture of myself in my Bargain Hunt

0:24:230:24:26

T-shirt and I'm going to personally sign it for the person who pays most.

0:24:260:24:30

So we're hoping we might make a little bit of money,

0:24:300:24:33

but we ain't told Sally though!

0:24:330:24:34

Philip, how was it with these guys?

0:24:370:24:39

They were quick out of the box but I think I was probably in bronze medal position here.

0:24:390:24:44

Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit then?

0:24:440:24:47

The picture of me!

0:24:470:24:49

-Did you say "Picture of me"?!

-Ssshh!

0:24:490:24:53

I'm not allowed to tell you that.

0:24:530:24:54

There's a little bit of strategy.

0:24:540:24:57

-You only spent a pathetic £90.

-We thought that was good tactics.

0:24:570:25:02

I gave you £300 and you only spent £90.

0:25:020:25:05

We're trying to go for the biggest profit.

0:25:050:25:07

Is that what it is? Well, it made £210 of leftover lolly.

0:25:070:25:10

That goes to P Serrell.

0:25:100:25:12

What are you going to spend it on, without giving anything away?

0:25:120:25:15

Well, I dunno, I'm going to have to reflect on it.

0:25:150:25:19

All right, then. With that very heavy hint, off you shove, Serrell.

0:25:190:25:25

Let's recap on what Sally and Emma bought.

0:25:250:25:28

I could have done with a little bit more time and bit more money

0:25:300:25:34

and I would've been very happy shopping.

0:25:340:25:36

Sorry, Sally, but you only get £300

0:25:360:25:39

and you spent almost half of that on the silver torque necklace.

0:25:390:25:44

They were a bit more restrained with the fruit dish,

0:25:450:25:48

but is it right ripe for a profit?

0:25:480:25:50

Finally, Emma felt at home with the vase.

0:25:520:25:56

The Clarice Cliff that my granny has is more ornate.

0:25:560:25:58

This one is much simpler.

0:25:580:26:00

Simple design and an uncomplicated price.

0:26:000:26:04

-A nice round £100 is what they paid.

-I've had such fun.

0:26:040:26:08

I went from being very confused to getting some great bargains there.

0:26:080:26:13

So, Mark, are you absolutely exhausted?

0:26:130:26:16

I've gone through the hurdles today, Tim, but we've had a wonderful time.

0:26:160:26:19

They're great fun and I think the dealers are worn out with us.

0:26:190:26:22

I bet they are. Which is going to bring the biggest profit?

0:26:220:26:26

Definitely the vase.

0:26:260:26:27

-You're united on that.

-We are.

0:26:270:26:30

And you did spend a magnificent £295.

0:26:300:26:33

I'm so pleased with you. That's fantastic.

0:26:330:26:35

I don't think he is over there.

0:26:350:26:38

£5 of leftover lolly, please.

0:26:380:26:40

One miserable £5 note.

0:26:400:26:43

Poor Mark, what are you going t to spend that on?

0:26:430:26:46

A cup of tea and a sandwich?

0:26:460:26:48

No, I've got something I think that might just plant us a profit, Tim.

0:26:480:26:52

Good luck as you go and find that bonus buy.

0:26:520:26:55

Now let's us find out what the auctioneer thinks about our

0:26:550:26:59

famous finds.

0:26:590:27:00

'Still to come on Bargain Hunt Famous Finds, will the Reds' cheeky attempt

0:27:030:27:07

'to add value pay off at auction?'

0:27:070:27:10

-She'll sign it for you.

-If you pay enough!

0:27:100:27:13

'And the Blues are shamelessly using

0:27:130:27:16

'any trick in the book to bump up their profits.'

0:27:160:27:19

We're with our auctioneer Daniel Webster

0:27:300:27:32

at Criterion Auctions in Wandsworth.

0:27:320:27:35

Dame Kelly and her mother went with this tribe.

0:27:350:27:39

Philip Serrell found the record player. What do you think?

0:27:390:27:43

Very typical of the 1960s, working order.

0:27:430:27:47

Nice to have the record player with the case.

0:27:470:27:49

Very unusual, that.

0:27:490:27:50

-Is it going to sell, though?

-We've got £20 to £40 on it.

0:27:500:27:54

Ah, £55 Philip paid.

0:27:540:27:56

-That might be difficult, mightn't it?

-Could it be, yes.

0:27:560:27:59

Next, Dame Kelly went with the button hook, which has to be

0:27:590:28:04

one of the most useless pieces of kit in these times.

0:28:040:28:07

Do you think you'll be able to sell it all right?

0:28:070:28:09

It's a nice hallmarked silver handle, so to make it more

0:28:090:28:13

fashionable someone may buy it, chop

0:28:130:28:16

off the end and make it a magnifying glass or something like that.

0:28:160:28:19

That's quite cunning, isn't it?

0:28:190:28:21

That's a bit of a tip for you.

0:28:210:28:23

So what's it going bring then?

0:28:230:28:25

-20 to 30 on that one.

-Great, she only paid £20,

0:28:250:28:28

so she should show a profit, an Olympic profit.

0:28:280:28:30

Next is the photograph frame found by Phil,

0:28:300:28:36

but later endorsed by Dame Kelly.

0:28:360:28:38

-That's rather a clever idea though, isn't it?

-It is, yeah.

0:28:380:28:42

The photograph frame is £10 to £20, but with the photograph in there,

0:28:420:28:46

which will be signed, that should raise the value.

0:28:460:28:49

-To what, do you think?

-50 to 100.

-Really?!

0:28:490:28:53

£15 was paid.

0:28:530:28:55

Overall, this is looking pretty promising, just depending on what

0:28:550:28:58

happens to the record player.

0:28:580:29:00

Just in case, perhaps you ought to look at the bonus buy.

0:29:000:29:04

So, Kelly and Pam, you gave £210 to Philip Serrell, you entrusted him with all that bonus buy money.

0:29:040:29:09

-Fools!

-What did you spend it on, Phil?

0:29:090:29:12

This is a modesty mirror.

0:29:120:29:16

You hang it on the wall like that, and you've got this lovely

0:29:160:29:20

embossed mount, and then when you want to see the glorious features,

0:29:200:29:24

-you just turn it round.

-How old is that, then?

-I think it

0:29:240:29:28

-might be as old as me, perhaps not.

-It's quite young, then.

0:29:280:29:31

-Let them handle it.

-So who would use a modesty mirror then?

0:29:310:29:35

You two would, because you're very modest.

0:29:350:29:37

No, Kelly would have it that way all the time. It wouldn't be turned round.

0:29:370:29:41

It's Turkish, it's what we call white metal silver.

0:29:410:29:44

I paid £80 for it.

0:29:440:29:46

One of two things will happen,

0:29:460:29:49

-it will either make £40 or £100.

-Quite fun, isn't it?

0:29:490:29:55

-So you're predicting maybe if it does well, a £20 profit?

-Yes.

0:29:550:29:58

So, girls, hang on to that memory. For the viewers at home,

0:29:580:30:01

let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Philip Serrell's modesty mirror.

0:30:010:30:05

There you go.

0:30:050:30:07

What do you think about that, Daniel? A bit of a Turkish delight?

0:30:070:30:10

For some. It's Turkish, it's stamped 900.

0:30:100:30:13

It's going to appeal to someone.

0:30:130:30:16

Someone with flashy taste, I'd say.

0:30:160:30:19

It's a very showy thing.

0:30:190:30:20

But how much, though?

0:30:200:30:22

It's brand-new, effectively.

0:30:220:30:24

Fine, it's low-grade silver, but who's going to buy it, Dan?

0:30:240:30:28

It needs to be in at a cheap price to attract somebody.

0:30:280:30:32

-So we've got 30 to 50 on it.

-Fine, £80 was paid.

0:30:320:30:36

So it's in the lap of the gods, isn't it?

0:30:360:30:38

-It is, yes.

-That's it for the Reds.

0:30:380:30:40

Now for the Blues.

0:30:400:30:42

Sally Gunnell went for this torque.

0:30:420:30:44

How do you find modern jewellery goes at auction these days?

0:30:440:30:48

Some of it, especially something like that, Tim, is going to appeal.

0:30:480:30:52

Nice simple design, isn't it?

0:30:520:30:54

-It is, yes.

-How much, though?

0:30:540:30:56

We've got 30 to 50 on that.

0:30:560:30:58

Oh, my Lord, she paid £120. That's going to be difficult, isn't it?

0:30:580:31:02

-It is, yes.

-Oh, dear.

0:31:020:31:05

Anyway, Emma went with something much more traditional,

0:31:050:31:08

a nice American cookie dish.

0:31:080:31:09

-Do you like that, Dan?

-It's a neat thing, Tim, yes.

0:31:090:31:12

American silver traditionally isn't the greatest of sellers at auction.

0:31:120:31:17

-As opposed to English but it will sell.

-How much?

0:31:170:31:20

-30 to 50.

-Oh, dear, £75 paid, so there is a bit of a dark hole there.

0:31:200:31:26

So, with some trepidation,

0:31:260:31:29

I'm going to ask you about the Clarice Cliff vase.

0:31:290:31:33

Clarice Cliff, always collectable.

0:31:330:31:35

It's a good lotus form shape.

0:31:350:31:37

Not the most desirable of patterns on there, unfortunately,

0:31:370:31:42

-but it is of the period, 1930s.

-So what's the estimate, Dan?

0:31:420:31:46

-£200 to £300?

-No!

0:31:460:31:48

There is some hope, £100 paid.

0:31:480:31:51

They should get a good wodge of profit out of that.

0:31:510:31:54

Potentially there are a couple of other losses there.

0:31:540:31:58

Let's look at their bonus buy.

0:31:580:32:01

So you naughty girls, you spent £295, which is marvellous.

0:32:010:32:06

Giving poor Mark only £5 to find his bonus buy with.

0:32:060:32:09

So Mark, show us your wares.

0:32:090:32:11

I love this.

0:32:110:32:13

-Oh my gosh!

-This is a ceremonial spade, which was presented to

0:32:130:32:19

a group of people for Plant A Tree Day in 1984 at Kew Gardens,

0:32:190:32:24

including Her Royal Highness Prince Michael of Kent and a lot of city dignitaries.

0:32:240:32:28

Each was given one of these, it was a fiver.

0:32:280:32:31

I think we'll dig up a profit.

0:32:310:32:33

Oooh!

0:32:330:32:35

-Well done. I'm impressed.

-I'm really pleased.

0:32:350:32:39

I thought for a fiver you can't go wrong.

0:32:390:32:41

It's quite solid, isn't it?

0:32:410:32:43

We're impressed.

0:32:430:32:44

Any predictions as to what it might bring?

0:32:440:32:47

I think it will at least double it.

0:32:470:32:49

-I was hoping for £20 or £30 at least.

-That would be amazing on

0:32:490:32:52

a £5 buy. Anyway, you don't have to decide now.

0:32:520:32:55

You decide after the sale of your first three items.

0:32:550:32:57

But for the viewers at home, let's see what the auctioneer thinks.

0:32:570:33:01

Well, we see some whacky things on Bargain Hunt but this is

0:33:010:33:05

-my first spade.

-It's my first one, too.

0:33:050:33:08

-Is it?

-It is.

0:33:080:33:10

How are you on valuing spades, then?

0:33:100:33:12

We've done our research at a few local DIY stores

0:33:120:33:15

and we've come up with £10 to £20.

0:33:150:33:17

£5, Mark paid, so he'll be well-pleased with that.

0:33:170:33:21

So are you going to be digging for victory for us today?

0:33:210:33:25

I'm selling tonight for you, Tim, and I'll certainly do my best.

0:33:250:33:28

Jolly good luck.

0:33:280:33:29

70, 5 at the back. 80, sir? No. 75. 75.

0:33:290:33:36

38...

0:33:370:33:39

So Dame Kelly and Pam,

0:33:390:33:42

-how nervy are we feeling?

-Very.

-Do you feel as if you're on the blocks?

0:33:420:33:48

I certainly feel like I'm on the start line.

0:33:480:33:51

It's a terrible feeling, You just don't know what's going to happen.

0:33:510:33:54

None of us know what's going to happen.

0:33:540:33:56

This is a public auction, and anybody could bid any

0:33:560:33:59

old kind of money, which is what's such fun about it, Phil, isn't it?

0:33:590:34:03

Fun?!

0:34:030:34:05

Your reputation's on the line, Phil.

0:34:050:34:07

She might be in the blocks. My neck's in it!

0:34:070:34:10

You'll get nothing chopped off! I've got a good feeling about this lot.

0:34:100:34:14

First up is the record player.

0:34:140:34:16

-Here it comes.

-Lot 121,

0:34:160:34:18

is a 1960s EAR portable record player,

0:34:180:34:22

matching case and records thrown it.

0:34:220:34:24

There you go. It works. 10, I have.

0:34:240:34:27

At £10. Money's here with me at 10, 15, 20. 5. 25.

0:34:270:34:34

At £25, are we all done?

0:34:340:34:37

Oh, no, that's terrible.

0:34:370:34:39

I'm so sorry about that, £25.

0:34:390:34:41

Just shows what I know.

0:34:410:34:43

Minus £30. Don't despair. Here's you're button hook.

0:34:430:34:47

A 19th century silver handled long button hook. 25?

0:34:470:34:51

20? 10 is bid. 12, 15, 18.

0:34:510:34:59

At £20, are we all done?

0:34:590:35:02

-For £20...

-Oh, no.

0:35:020:35:07

£20, no profit, no loss, no shame.

0:35:070:35:09

We're all on your shoulders, my love.

0:35:090:35:11

Lot 123 is a silver framed photograph frame, Birmingham 1913,

0:35:110:35:18

it comes with a photograph of Dame Kelly Holmes.

0:35:180:35:20

-She will sign it for you...

-If you pay enough!

0:35:200:35:24

Signature from a double Olympic medallist. 20 is bid. 5, 30,

0:35:240:35:30

5. 40, 5.

0:35:300:35:33

At 45, 50.

0:35:330:35:35

-Profit!

-At £50.

0:35:350:35:37

At £50. Are we all done? £50 then.

0:35:370:35:41

£50. That's very good.

0:35:410:35:44

You've made plus £35, which overall you're plus £5.

0:35:440:35:48

So what about that? You made a fiver.

0:35:510:35:54

That's an achievement. What about this bonus buy?

0:35:540:35:57

Are you going to quit with £5?

0:35:570:35:58

Quite while we're ahead!

0:35:580:35:59

-Or are you going to risk £80 for the modesty mirror?

-I don't think so.

0:35:590:36:03

-Are you going to risk it?

-No.

0:36:030:36:05

Pam, what do you want to do?

0:36:050:36:07

I don't think we're going to.

0:36:070:36:10

We're not going with the bonus buy,

0:36:100:36:14

but we're going to sell it anyway!

0:36:140:36:15

Lot 126 is a Turkish white metal or Continental silver modesty mirror.

0:36:150:36:25

-£30? £20 if you like.

-Oh, dear.

0:36:250:36:29

£20 is bid. 5. 30,

0:36:290:36:34

5. 40. 5.

0:36:340:36:37

50. 2 if it helps, sir?

0:36:370:36:41

£50, then.

0:36:410:36:44

Good decision.

0:36:440:36:47

Good decision. Well...

0:36:480:36:52

That's something else.

0:36:520:36:55

You've made a £5 profit.

0:36:550:36:57

More to the point, you've retained your profit, which is brilliant.

0:36:570:37:00

OK, SG and Ems, how are you feeling on the excitement stakes?

0:37:080:37:12

I'm very excited, which I'm quite surprised about. I feel nervous.

0:37:120:37:15

A little bit of tension. I wasn't but all of a sudden.

0:37:150:37:19

It's great, isn't it? It's called adrenaline.

0:37:190:37:21

-Is it?

-But you'd know all about that.

0:37:210:37:23

-I used to.

-What about you, Ems?

0:37:230:37:25

My heart's pounding a little bit.

0:37:250:37:27

Does it go like that when you're on the edge?

0:37:270:37:30

I just hope there's somebody in here wanting one of our things.

0:37:300:37:34

Wanting three of your things.

0:37:340:37:36

First up is that lovely silver torque.

0:37:360:37:39

SG, this is your moment.

0:37:390:37:43

156 is a 20th century silver torque.

0:37:430:37:46

At £30 somewhere? £20 if you like.

0:37:460:37:49

20's bid. 5, 30, 5, 40.

0:37:490:37:53

5, 50.

0:37:530:37:55

At £50 now. At £50 are we all done?

0:37:550:38:00

£50 then.

0:38:000:38:02

You sold it for £50. You are minus £70. Don't despair, sweet pea.

0:38:020:38:08

Lot 157 is an American sterling silver pedestal fruit dish.

0:38:080:38:14

Good thing. And £30 I have. At £30.

0:38:140:38:18

35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65.

0:38:180:38:24

70, 75. 80. At £80. 82 if it helps. At £80...

0:38:240:38:30

Yes! That's brilliant. £80, you've made a £5 profit on that.

0:38:340:38:38

We're still down.

0:38:380:38:40

Now the Clarice Cliff. This is serious.

0:38:400:38:42

A good Clarice Cliff lotus form vase, good shape. £100 for it.

0:38:420:38:48

£100? £100's bid.

0:38:480:38:51

-110.

-Oh no!

-20, 30.

0:38:510:38:56

-40, 50...

-Come on! Please.

0:38:580:39:01

£150, are we done? £150...

0:39:030:39:08

£160 popping up now -

0:39:080:39:11

160 in the nick of time, sir. £160.

0:39:110:39:16

£160. You made £60 profit on that.

0:39:180:39:22

That's so brilliant. You have £65 and you're minus £5.

0:39:220:39:26

-I can't bear this.

-Are you going to go with the spade?

0:39:260:39:29

-We can't go with the spade.

-Come on, isn't this exciting?

0:39:290:39:34

-You're minus £5.

-I want to win.

0:39:340:39:36

I know you want to win. This is your chance.

0:39:360:39:38

It's the only option.

0:39:380:39:40

We're going with that spade.

0:39:400:39:44

Here comes the spade.

0:39:440:39:45

Lot 161 is a presentation spade...

0:39:450:39:52

All over in the corner now, £5.

0:39:520:39:56

A splendid item for a fiver.

0:39:560:39:58

At £5, cheaper than the DIY shops at £5.

0:39:580:40:04

8, don't stop, sir. 10.

0:40:040:40:07

-One more!

-One more!

0:40:070:40:10

At £10, are we all sure? £12. Thank you very much.

0:40:100:40:15

Don't stop now. £15.

0:40:150:40:19

18, 20,

0:40:190:40:21

22, 24.

0:40:210:40:26

At £24, are we all done? If you have spades, bring them in next week!

0:40:260:40:31

At £24... Are we all done? At 24...

0:40:310:40:34

-Fantastic! You've made a profit of £19.

-Well done, Mark.

0:40:350:40:39

You've made a profit of £14. Brilliant.

0:40:390:40:44

Is that good? We don't know!

0:40:440:40:46

Just to make a profit on this programme is brilliant.

0:40:460:40:49

Oh, you are gorgeous.

0:40:490:40:50

What an exciting programme!

0:41:020:41:04

Today we have two teams of winners, both teams have made profits.

0:41:040:41:08

But have you been talking to one another?

0:41:080:41:11

-No!

-Do you know the extent of these winnings?

0:41:110:41:14

It's wonderful that you kept mum.

0:41:140:41:17

We don't have losers on Bargain Hunt, we only have runners-up.

0:41:170:41:22

I have to reveal today that the running up team are...

0:41:220:41:25

The Reds.

0:41:250:41:28

I'm so sorry about this. You did so beautifully.

0:41:280:41:32

You have a £5 profit.

0:41:320:41:34

I'm going to give you, Dame Kelly, your £5 profit.

0:41:340:41:38

What are you going to do with the money?

0:41:380:41:40

I'd like to give it to Last Chance Rescue,

0:41:400:41:42

-which is a dog charity.

-It will pay for a bag of food!

0:41:420:41:46

Every £5 can make a difference.

0:41:460:41:48

You didn't go with with the bonus buy, a wise move, which ring-fenced

0:41:480:41:52

your £5 worth of winnings. Have you had a good time?

0:41:520:41:55

It's been great.

0:41:550:41:57

-We've loved having you.

-Well done.

-The victors today, the Blues.

0:41:570:42:01

With your profit of £14.

0:42:010:42:04

It's what you call just a whisker, practically a photo finish,

0:42:060:42:09

-actually. Well done.

-One more.

-I know you want one more!

0:42:090:42:13

What are you going to do with your 14 smackers?

0:42:130:42:15

It's going to go to the Point Foundation, an orphanage in Rwanda.

0:42:150:42:19

So that will go a long way.

0:42:190:42:21

On today's programme, because we have two teams who are absolutely

0:42:210:42:26

used to winning medals, Bargain Hunt Famous Finds has prepared

0:42:260:42:31

some medals for our teams today.

0:42:310:42:32

We have here a silver medal,

0:42:320:42:37

which I would like to present to the runners-up.

0:42:370:42:41

-Thank you.

-But for the victors today, as you would expect, gold medals!

0:42:410:42:48

Yes! Thank you.

0:42:480:42:50

Do you see how quickly Sally was able to put that medal on?

0:42:500:42:54

Emma needed just a bit of practise there.

0:42:540:42:58

We have medallists throughout today's programme. It's been a fantastic show.

0:42:580:43:02

-Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?

-Yes!
