1:00:50 > 1:00:57.
1:01:02 > 1:01:05- 'Some of the nation's favourite celebrities.'- Sensational!
1:01:05 > 1:01:11- 'One antiques expert each.'- Then go up! And then down, touch the ground.
1:01:11 > 1:01:18'And one big challenge. Who can seek out and buy the best antiques at the very best prices?'
1:01:18 > 1:01:20- £300.- What?
1:01:20 > 1:01:23- 'And auction for a big profit...' - 55, a new bidder. Thank you.
1:01:23 > 1:01:27- '..further down the road?'- Yes!
1:01:27 > 1:01:33'Who will spot the good investments? Who will listen to advice? And who will be the first to say...'
1:01:33 > 1:01:36- THEY LAUGH - '.."Don't you know who I am?"
1:01:36 > 1:01:40'Time to put your pedal to the metal.
1:01:40 > 1:01:43'This is Celebrity Antiques Road Trip!'
1:01:46 > 1:01:47'Yeah!
1:01:47 > 1:01:51'On tonight's Celebrity Road Trip, it's war.'
1:01:51 > 1:01:55# War, huh, yeah
1:01:55 > 1:02:00- # What is it good for? - # Absolutely nothing, uh-huh
1:02:00 > 1:02:04'In this 1964 Sunbeam Alpine, two generations of Snow
1:02:04 > 1:02:07'are about to go head-to-head.'
1:02:11 > 1:02:16- It's going to be great fun. - Sure is, Dad. I'll give you one hell of a beating.- Certainly not!
1:02:17 > 1:02:20'Yes, we're pitting father against son.
1:02:20 > 1:02:24'It's Peter Snow, the man behind the swingometer,
1:02:24 > 1:02:29- 'renowned journalist and broadcasting veteran of 50 years.' - Good evening.
1:02:29 > 1:02:31'Versus Dan Snow, historian,
1:02:31 > 1:02:36'graduate from Oxford University and one of the Beeb's leading men.'
1:02:36 > 1:02:40This was the first British army where talent counted for more than breeding.
1:02:40 > 1:02:43'As well as being bound by blood,
1:02:43 > 1:02:47'Peter and Dan both love Britain's military history.
1:02:47 > 1:02:51'Though now they're doing battle in the world of antiques.
1:02:51 > 1:02:57'We're giving them £400 apiece and just two days to turn as much profit as possible.'
1:02:57 > 1:03:02I want to get model soldiers, any bits of militaria I love,
1:03:02 > 1:03:05little Spitfire models, things like that. Medals.
1:03:05 > 1:03:08Well, I'm going to go for practical things.
1:03:09 > 1:03:15'But they won't be alone. Each will have an advisor guiding them every step of the way.
1:03:15 > 1:03:20'Please stand to attention for Charlie Ross and Charles Hanson,
1:03:20 > 1:03:24'currently reporting for duty in this 1967 Triumph Vitesse.'
1:03:25 > 1:03:31I'm ever so excited because when I imagine Dan and Peter Snow, I think of you and I.
1:03:31 > 1:03:36- It's like a father and son combination.- It would've been quite exciting had you been my son.
1:03:36 > 1:03:41- Why?- I'd have had such a challenge. - Would you really?- Your upbringing can't have been easy.
1:03:42 > 1:03:46'Charlie Ross is one of Britain's most respected auctioneers
1:03:46 > 1:03:53'and holds several world records, including the highest price ever achieved at an American car auction.
1:03:53 > 1:03:56'16 million.'
1:03:56 > 1:04:00Are you going to go with Dan? Is it going to be the young ones against the old ones?
1:04:00 > 1:04:03It has to be the case. I was born in the same year as Dan Snow.
1:04:03 > 1:04:07- Were you really?- I was married in the same year as Dan Snow.
1:04:07 > 1:04:10Peter's 71. You're thereabouts.
1:04:10 > 1:04:13THEY LAUGH
1:04:13 > 1:04:17'Charles Hanson, meanwhile, is the next generation of auctioneer
1:04:17 > 1:04:21'with knowledge and quirk in equal doses. His claim to fame,
1:04:21 > 1:04:25'selling Queen Victoria's knickers for £5,000.
1:04:25 > 1:04:29'Now that's something to s-s-sing about.'
1:04:29 > 1:04:33# I'd do anything
1:04:33 > 1:04:35# For you, dear, anything
1:04:35 > 1:04:40# For you mean everything to me
1:04:40 > 1:04:43'In that case, how about you stop singing straight away?
1:04:44 > 1:04:49'So we're kicking off this road trip along Britain's south coast,
1:04:49 > 1:04:52'starting in Bournemouth, and all going to plan,
1:04:52 > 1:04:56'we should end up at an auction in Billingshurst, West Sussex.
1:04:56 > 1:04:58'Our first stop, then, Bournemouth,
1:04:58 > 1:05:02'reputed to be the happiest place in Britain.
1:05:02 > 1:05:05'Though with dark clouds on the rise,
1:05:05 > 1:05:11'it's time for our celebs to meet their experts and let battle commence.'
1:05:11 > 1:05:15- Hello, gentlemen. Sorry we're late. - Well, well!- As the rain comes down.
1:05:15 > 1:05:18- Charles Hanson. - Hello.- Lovely to meet you!
1:05:18 > 1:05:22- I'm Charlie. Hello, Peter. - Good to see you.
1:05:22 > 1:05:25- Charlie...- Are you going to go with Dan?- I think so.
1:05:25 > 1:05:30He wants to go with the young man and I want to go with experience!
1:05:30 > 1:05:35'Now, it's fair to say Bournemouth isn't big on military history.
1:05:35 > 1:05:40'In fact, it used to be rather quiet. Right up until 1841
1:05:40 > 1:05:44'when Augustus Granville, author of The Spas Of England,
1:05:44 > 1:05:48'deemed it the perfect place for people with chest complaints.
1:05:48 > 1:05:51'Suddenly a seaside resort was born,
1:05:51 > 1:05:55'attracting many an invalid and affluent holidaymaker alike.
1:05:55 > 1:05:59'Fortunately, it's also rather blessed with antique shops,
1:05:59 > 1:06:02'where right now Dan and Charles are leading the charge.'
1:06:03 > 1:06:06This is the hub of antique activity.
1:06:06 > 1:06:09What's your favoured period of history?
1:06:09 > 1:06:12I love the 18th century, Georgians, that kind of period.
1:06:12 > 1:06:16Captain Cook, that kind of colonial vibe.
1:06:16 > 1:06:21- All that kind of stuff. - You're oozing history and oozing class. I like it. Superb.
1:06:21 > 1:06:27- Right, I think the first shop we'll go into is over here. - OK. Here we go.
1:06:27 > 1:06:32'Good choice, Charles, as Sandys Antiques, owned by young Mike Sandy here...'
1:06:32 > 1:06:37- Good to see you. Charles and Dan. - '..is positively oozing with history, also.'
1:06:37 > 1:06:40- This is the kind of place where you can smell a bargain.- Exactly.
1:06:40 > 1:06:43'Oh, yes! I love the smell of a bargain in the morning!
1:06:43 > 1:06:49'As do the oldies, who have invaded the Pokesdown Antique Centre
1:06:49 > 1:06:52'and are currently with Bonnie playing dress-up.'
1:06:52 > 1:06:55- That's fabulous! - It's not a hat, it's a tea cosy.
1:06:55 > 1:06:59Well, no, I think it is a hat. Oh, Peter!
1:06:59 > 1:07:02- LAUGHTER - Mock me well!- Marvellous!
1:07:02 > 1:07:05- I can't see myself. Oh, my God! - No, no!
1:07:05 > 1:07:09- May I try?- Go right ahead and I'll laugh at you.- Yes.
1:07:11 > 1:07:16- Oh, yes!- Oh, yes!- Brilliant! - I'd have liked to have played the part...- Is it a tea cosy?
1:07:16 > 1:07:20No, it isn't. Me being facetious. This is actually a jester's hat.
1:07:20 > 1:07:24And it's certainly 19th century, isn't it? How do you know it's German?
1:07:24 > 1:07:28Oh, look, it's got an inscription, Peter!
1:07:28 > 1:07:30Let me put my glasses on. Let's have a look at this.
1:07:30 > 1:07:33"To RSM Smithy.
1:07:33 > 1:07:40"This cap is one of the oldest Dusseldorf Carnival Club, 'The Big' 1886."
1:07:40 > 1:07:43It is a very old carnival cap.
1:07:43 > 1:07:47- Well, that's interesting. - That's a fabulous lot!- Yes.
1:07:47 > 1:07:51- Oh, I do like that! - Would we ever sell that? - Only if it were jolly cheap.
1:07:51 > 1:07:54I was thinking we offer Bonnie 20 for it. Do you think she'd take 20?
1:07:54 > 1:07:58- She might do.- She might do! - She's a bit of a walkover.
1:07:58 > 1:08:00She's a bit of a walkover!
1:08:00 > 1:08:02'Isn't it pushover?
1:08:02 > 1:08:06'And speaking of nice, here's something that really isn't.'
1:08:06 > 1:08:10It's a Bavarian Black Forest carved softwood bear.
1:08:10 > 1:08:17Novelty. They were really popular in the Swiss Alpine Germanic Bavarian regions
1:08:17 > 1:08:20in the second half of the 19th century.
1:08:20 > 1:08:23They were a great tourist thing to bring back.
1:08:23 > 1:08:28'Or to put it another way, a hat stand. Ticket price £150.'
1:08:29 > 1:08:31I just quite like that, Dan.
1:08:31 > 1:08:35If I was starting a German-themed restaurant, I'd do that.
1:08:35 > 1:08:39I'd buy one of those, put a David Hasselhoff CD on and away you go.
1:08:39 > 1:08:41What do you mean? You don't like it?
1:08:41 > 1:08:45Well, I mean, I don't like it that much, but it's about making money.
1:08:45 > 1:08:50- 'He hates it.'- Dan, just hold that for us. Thanks, mate. There we go.
1:08:50 > 1:08:54What's your very, very best? If I said we'll give you £80,
1:08:54 > 1:09:00- you'll say...- I would say no. £100 and you could take it away.
1:09:00 > 1:09:03'OK, so Dan's not convinced at all.'
1:09:03 > 1:09:08- Give me a hand, Dan. Quick. - 'But it's definitely eye-catching.'
1:09:08 > 1:09:11I mean, I like the idea of my money getting something really big.
1:09:11 > 1:09:15I think if we could get less than three figures, I'd feel happier.
1:09:15 > 1:09:18- 98.- 98 quid. Yeah.
1:09:18 > 1:09:21So we've managed to get him down from three figures.
1:09:21 > 1:09:26Do you honestly think someone's going to pay more than £98 at auction for this? Honestly?
1:09:29 > 1:09:34- Yes.- All right, well, I'm going to do it.
1:09:35 > 1:09:37- Done.- Sir, we'll take it. - OK.- Good man.
1:09:37 > 1:09:40- 'Oh, marvellous.' - Happy?- Yes, very happy.
1:09:40 > 1:09:44- Are you believing?- I'm believing. Build it and they will come.
1:09:44 > 1:09:46'He hates it.
1:09:46 > 1:09:50'As for the others, they've decided to pass on the jester's hat
1:09:50 > 1:09:53'and so the search continues.'
1:09:53 > 1:09:59- Do you see? It's a little container into which you could put coins or... - A needle case, I would've thought.
1:10:00 > 1:10:03'Actually, I think I can help here.
1:10:03 > 1:10:05'It's a Japanese inro,
1:10:05 > 1:10:10'which is a small box in several parts which was suspended from belt cords
1:10:10 > 1:10:13'to contain personal items
1:10:13 > 1:10:16'like medicine and seals.'
1:10:16 > 1:10:19It looks to me to be late 19th century.
1:10:19 > 1:10:22- I think so.- I don't think it would be earlier than that.
1:10:22 > 1:10:27- It's got no price on it, which is rather good.- Yes.- That's because I didn't know how much to put on it.
1:10:27 > 1:10:32- You didn't know!- We literally have hardly any money at all, do we?
1:10:32 > 1:10:36- Imagine if we offered you a tenner for it.- I think I would have to decline that,
1:10:36 > 1:10:39because I know what I paid for it.
1:10:39 > 1:10:41I actually paid £20 for it.
1:10:41 > 1:10:46- Oh.- I can take any offer over that. - Over 10?- Over 20.
1:10:46 > 1:10:50'You know, I think Peter could go far in this business.'
1:10:50 > 1:10:52- We need to offer you a little bit more.- Yeah.
1:10:52 > 1:10:56Should we be rude and offer you £22.50? Would that be all right?
1:10:56 > 1:10:59- Erm, as it's you, yes. - CHARLIE LAUGHS
1:10:59 > 1:11:02Oh, how very sweet! That's wonderful! Oh, Bonnie!
1:11:02 > 1:11:09'And just seconds after Peter and Charlie triumphantly depart with the Japanese inro in hand...'
1:11:09 > 1:11:12- Up the road.- All right. - More shopping.
1:11:12 > 1:11:15'..the enemy is at the door.'
1:11:17 > 1:11:20Hello there. Hi, Charles. Good to see you.
1:11:20 > 1:11:23- Bonnie.- Dan. How are you? - Hi. I'm fine, thanks.
1:11:23 > 1:11:26- Have you had some visitors recently? - Yes, we have.- Any other Snows?
1:11:26 > 1:11:29Yes, it's been a complete Snow storm!
1:11:29 > 1:11:32- THEY LAUGH - Brilliant.
1:11:32 > 1:11:34Erm, did he buy anything?
1:11:34 > 1:11:37- Yes, he did.- What did he buy?
1:11:37 > 1:11:40- I don't know whether I'm at liberty to tell you.- No.
1:11:40 > 1:11:44'Yes, absolutely not! Fortunately, it doesn't take much scouring
1:11:44 > 1:11:49'before our young whippersnappers find something of interest.'
1:11:51 > 1:11:57This little... Do you see that? Little silver vase with a military sort of theme to it.
1:11:57 > 1:12:02- Is it silver or plated?- Er, it's got a mark and I can't read it.
1:12:02 > 1:12:05- I think it's German. - May we have a look at it?
1:12:05 > 1:12:09It's not military and I think it's probably plated. You're welcome to look.
1:12:09 > 1:12:12It looks like a battle scene of some sort. Oh, they're a pair.
1:12:12 > 1:12:17- Yes. I think they're spill vases. - What's a spill vase?
1:12:17 > 1:12:19'Once again, please allow me.
1:12:19 > 1:12:24'A spill or taper was a piece of paper or wood or thin waxed candle
1:12:24 > 1:12:30'used to transfer a light from candle to lamp to fire or vice versa,
1:12:30 > 1:12:32'and they were kept in a spill vase.'
1:12:32 > 1:12:36Circa 1910, 1920. Looking back at history.
1:12:36 > 1:12:38How much are they, the best price together?
1:12:38 > 1:12:42- The best price is £20. - For the whole lot?- Yes.
1:12:43 > 1:12:47- That's quite good. - So temptingly cheap.- I'd be tempted.
1:12:47 > 1:12:51- Do you know what would really help me on that? If it was teens. - Teens, yeah.
1:12:51 > 1:12:54Yes, that sounds a lot more attractive, doesn't it?
1:12:54 > 1:13:01'Goodness me! Shameless negotiating tactics must run in the family!'
1:13:01 > 1:13:03Erm...18.
1:13:03 > 1:13:07I'd go for about £15 if you can. See if you can work your magic.
1:13:07 > 1:13:09Because, you know, between friends, it might work.
1:13:09 > 1:13:12- He's telling me I can't go above 15. - Don't blame me.- OK.
1:13:12 > 1:13:15- Please, help me out on this. - He's a very sensible man.
1:13:15 > 1:13:20- HE LAUGHS - Please help me out on this. I walked away with a massive...- £15?- Yeah.
1:13:20 > 1:13:23- Erm...- 15.- My giveaway price today.
1:13:23 > 1:13:26- Oh, wonderful!- It's a deal! - OK!- Thank you very much.
1:13:26 > 1:13:30- Thanks ever so much. Well done, mate. That's very kind. Thank you. - Excellent.
1:13:30 > 1:13:36'Just down the road, our veterans are doing reconnaissance at Sandys Antiques
1:13:36 > 1:13:39'and seem to have rather fallen for this grand old man.'
1:13:40 > 1:13:46It's a late 18th century clock. It's got an oak case.
1:13:46 > 1:13:49It's cross-banded in mahogany.
1:13:49 > 1:13:52'Just one eensy-weensy little problem here, boys.
1:13:52 > 1:13:54'It costs £650.'
1:13:55 > 1:13:59I don't think even lovely Mike could get you down to your sort of figure.
1:13:59 > 1:14:02- No.- But you don't know. Mike said that came in yesterday.
1:14:02 > 1:14:06- It may have come in a house clearance for goodness knows what. - Oh, I see.
1:14:06 > 1:14:10- I suspect it didn't. Mike.- Yes? - Did that come at a ridiculous price or...
1:14:10 > 1:14:15- It did come in at quite a good price.- Quite a good price!
1:14:15 > 1:14:17If we could get that clock for £100...
1:14:17 > 1:14:21HE LAUGHS No, but just imagine what a profit we could make.
1:14:21 > 1:14:25- I can't...- Are you all right?
1:14:25 > 1:14:28HE LAUGHS What's happened to you?
1:14:28 > 1:14:32Mike was laughing at me again, I'm afraid. Yes.
1:14:32 > 1:14:34I've just collapsed on the floor, as well.
1:14:34 > 1:14:39This man is not used to buying antiques, but my God, he's good at it.
1:14:39 > 1:14:42'I know, Peter and Dan are shameless.
1:14:42 > 1:14:46'I wonder if they'd like a regular spot on the show.'
1:14:46 > 1:14:50It did come in at the right money and if you have a budget,
1:14:50 > 1:14:53- I would help you out at £320. - Oh, I see.
1:14:53 > 1:14:58But we can't... Grandfather clocks, you can't get them much cheaper than this.
1:14:58 > 1:15:02- What did I say, £150? - Yeah, but you were being...
1:15:04 > 1:15:06- I'd still buy it for that, honestly. - 200.
1:15:07 > 1:15:12- I can't do it.- Do you know, I'm really keen to buy a longcase clock.
1:15:12 > 1:15:14- Yes.- I'm hot for that lot!
1:15:14 > 1:15:16- £300.- What?
1:15:16 > 1:15:19- £300.- That's a huge amount of money!
1:15:19 > 1:15:22- 300 quid for a clock? - That's it. That is it.
1:15:22 > 1:15:25Oh, Mike, that's very sweet of you, but... Oh, dear me. We are paying cash.
1:15:25 > 1:15:30- That doesn't matter. - We could give you a little more than £250, couldn't we?
1:15:30 > 1:15:33May I just, before I finally commit myself, take the hood off?
1:15:33 > 1:15:35'Well, this is exciting.
1:15:35 > 1:15:40'If the clock passes muster, we might just have one very bold purchase on our hands.'
1:15:40 > 1:15:44- I have a longcase clock at home. - Goodness me.- Look at this!
1:15:44 > 1:15:47- Were you expecting this? - Good lord, that's extraordinary.
1:15:47 > 1:15:50Nice bell. You listen to this.
1:15:50 > 1:15:54BELL CHIMES Oh, that's lovely.
1:15:54 > 1:15:57'Ah, yes, but there's still the small matter of price.'
1:15:57 > 1:16:02- You're ultimately relying on my judgement, aren't you?- Yes. - My neck is on the block.
1:16:05 > 1:16:08Mike, I've got this... this dangerous man here
1:16:08 > 1:16:11suggesting we could go to 275.
1:16:11 > 1:16:13Do you think... Would you consider that?
1:16:13 > 1:16:18- I'll tell you what I would do. 280. - Done.
1:16:18 > 1:16:23When you've driven a bargain like that, I've got a question. Are you... Happy is the wrong word.
1:16:23 > 1:16:27- Are you satisfied with that? - I'm fine.- Mike, thank you so much.
1:16:28 > 1:16:32'My goodness, that's £330 off!
1:16:32 > 1:16:36'I think our veterans have a thing or two to teach the young ones.'
1:16:36 > 1:16:41We've got here a nice set of three Second World War portraits, caricatures.
1:16:41 > 1:16:45I like this one particularly because it tells you a lot about the soldiers' humour.
1:16:45 > 1:16:50Height of World War II, 1942. This is a staff officer.
1:16:50 > 1:16:52He's got bumf, he's got rules and regulations.
1:16:52 > 1:16:56- This is a desk-bound warrior.- Yes. - The guy the other soldiers loved to hate.
1:16:56 > 1:17:01But the guy without whom all the hard work wouldn't have been done. We should put in an offer.
1:17:01 > 1:17:05'And the price for all three pictures is £120.'
1:17:05 > 1:17:08- Tenner?- Here we go!
1:17:08 > 1:17:11'Like father, like son.'
1:17:11 > 1:17:15- They don't belong to me. - You've got to try. - The gentleman who does own them
1:17:15 > 1:17:19has told me that the lowest price he can do is £90 for the three.
1:17:19 > 1:17:23Ideally, for the three, in my mean ways from Derbyshire,
1:17:23 > 1:17:28I'd guide this set between £50 and £80. On a good day, they could make £100.
1:17:28 > 1:17:33- If you like them, a lot of other people will probably like them. - I've got some very strange tastes.
1:17:33 > 1:17:36So have a lot of people! THEY LAUGH
1:17:36 > 1:17:39Oh, Bonnie! So the best price is no less than 90?
1:17:39 > 1:17:43- If they were mine, I could, but I do apologise.- Don't apologise.
1:17:43 > 1:17:49I think the gentleman paid pretty well getting on for that, so I can't do any less, I'm afraid.
1:17:49 > 1:17:53Well, Bonnie, I'm going to take an executive decision.
1:17:53 > 1:17:56- I'm going to go for it. Put it here. - Very sensible.
1:17:56 > 1:18:00- I would've tried £80.- It's too late! - He's shaken my hand.
1:18:00 > 1:18:04- You've bought them? - Yes.- OK. Perfect.- I could talk to your friend on the phone.
1:18:04 > 1:18:07'Sorry, Charles, you're not needed, apparently.'
1:18:07 > 1:18:10I like a man who knows where he's going. Good man.
1:18:11 > 1:18:14'With the son and father well and truly past the yardarm,
1:18:14 > 1:18:19'Peter and Charlie have just enough time for a quick poke around at HLB Antiques.
1:18:19 > 1:18:21'Now that looks smart!'
1:18:21 > 1:18:25- Hello there!- How do you do? - Peter Snow, how do you do?
1:18:25 > 1:18:28- Pleased to meet you. - Charlie Ross. Lovely to see you.
1:18:28 > 1:18:31- I specialise in walking sticks. - Oh, really? How exciting.
1:18:31 > 1:18:35And this is another treasure that I found.
1:18:35 > 1:18:37'Needless to say, Hymie's quite the salesman.
1:18:37 > 1:18:41'But given Peter and Charlie have less than £100 left,
1:18:41 > 1:18:45'they're probably best to go with... No.'
1:18:45 > 1:18:49- You've got some fascinating things in here.- 'No.'
1:18:49 > 1:18:55- Isn't that wonderful?- 'Er, no. Which brings us to a tea strainer.'
1:18:56 > 1:19:00- I was just wondering whether it was silver.- I'm sure it's silver.
1:19:00 > 1:19:05- But I don't think it's English silver.- Oh, I see.- It would be Dutch silver, hence the windmill.
1:19:05 > 1:19:08- No hallmark?- And it's probably about 1910. It won't have a hallmark.
1:19:08 > 1:19:11But it's a sweet thing. How much did that cost, Hymie?
1:19:11 > 1:19:14- Cost me 25.- Cost him 25.
1:19:14 > 1:19:17- I wanted 30. I'll take my money back.- Take his money back.
1:19:17 > 1:19:20- I'll lose a fiver with you.- 20 quid!
1:19:20 > 1:19:22- Give me a score. I'll lose a fiver. - Done.
1:19:22 > 1:19:27- Because you've got such nice ways about you.- Extremely nice of you. We like that, don't we?- Not a lot.
1:19:27 > 1:19:30- Oh, we don't? - Too late now! You've shaken on it!
1:19:30 > 1:19:34- Have I made a mistake? - No, no, you haven't. I don't think there's any down side.
1:19:34 > 1:19:37I love it that you clinched the deal there, Peter!
1:19:37 > 1:19:40'Oh, dear. Dissension amongst the ranks.
1:19:40 > 1:19:43'And the same is also true for our young ones,
1:19:43 > 1:19:46'as it turns out Dan still has a few issues
1:19:46 > 1:19:49'when it comes to that wretched Bavarian bear.'
1:19:49 > 1:19:52I'm really pleased. I think we've done well with the bear.
1:19:52 > 1:19:54- Yeah. - I think we've really bought well.
1:19:54 > 1:19:58Do you know, Hanson, I trust you, but I think this is mistake.
1:19:58 > 1:20:03- You think so?- And the more I ride with this thing rammed into my face, the more sure I am.
1:20:03 > 1:20:06'It's not only your face you've got to worry about. Good night.
1:20:08 > 1:20:12'Day two sees our antique hunters raring to go
1:20:12 > 1:20:17'and I'm happy to report they're all getting on like a house on fire, especially Peter and Charlie,
1:20:17 > 1:20:21'whose bromance is positively blossoming.'
1:20:21 > 1:20:23I think we've done rather well, Charlie, don't you?
1:20:23 > 1:20:27- You've done marvellously!- And having you with me has been absolute magic.
1:20:27 > 1:20:30You are so expert, so skilled.
1:20:30 > 1:20:34You are THE negotiator of all time, I think.
1:20:34 > 1:20:39'Yep, we have high hopes for Peter! Mind you, young Dan's rather competitive, as you would expect.'
1:20:40 > 1:20:42Let's say we go to the auction really buoyant
1:20:42 > 1:20:47and then suddenly we are beaten handsomely by Dad and Ross.
1:20:47 > 1:20:52- What will your reaction be?- My first reaction will be to take you outside
1:20:52 > 1:20:55and give you a kicking for buying that stupid Bavarian hat stand.
1:20:56 > 1:21:02'Well, that's nice! Now, so far in this generational battle,
1:21:02 > 1:21:05'Dan and Charles have spent £203 on three auction lots,
1:21:05 > 1:21:11'though as hinted at by Dan, the hat stand is still a sticking point.'
1:21:11 > 1:21:14I'm a team player, but if we lose, it's your fault.
1:21:14 > 1:21:19'Quite right! Peter and Charlie, meanwhile, are putting everything on the line
1:21:19 > 1:21:26'and have said goodbye to an impressive £322.50, also for three auction lots.'
1:21:26 > 1:21:30This man is not used to buying antiques, but by God, he's good at it!
1:21:30 > 1:21:33'Our first stop today, Southwick,
1:21:33 > 1:21:36'a village originally founded by the Saxons
1:21:36 > 1:21:43'and which literally translates as "dairy farm". Bet you didn't know that!
1:21:44 > 1:21:48'The area is also home to the Royal Military Police Museum,
1:21:48 > 1:21:53'an institution very much behind the wire and by appointment only.
1:21:53 > 1:21:57'It charts the history of Britain's military police corps
1:21:57 > 1:22:00'since its creation in the 19th century.'
1:22:00 > 1:22:04- This is your sort of thing, isn't it? - Yep. I'm looking forward to this.
1:22:04 > 1:22:08This was actually Eisenhower's headquarters when they planned D-Day.
1:22:08 > 1:22:13'Oh, yes! Our Dan sure knows his stuff when it comes to military.
1:22:13 > 1:22:15'I hope Richard's on his toes!'
1:22:15 > 1:22:19- Hi, I'm Richard, I'm the curator. - Hello. How are you?- Charles Hanson.
1:22:19 > 1:22:22- Welcome to the RMP Museum. - Thank you very much.
1:22:23 > 1:22:30'The epic story of the Royal Military Police officially begins in Aldershot in 1855
1:22:30 > 1:22:34'with the creation of an army camp housing 20,000 men.'
1:22:36 > 1:22:40Soldiers can be quite a lively bunch and if they're not fighting the enemy,
1:22:40 > 1:22:45they're not unknown to fight themselves, so there's a need to keep a bit of order in an army.
1:22:45 > 1:22:48Yes. Soldiers have basically four favourite activities.
1:22:48 > 1:22:53Drinking, fighting, stealing and fraternisation.
1:22:53 > 1:22:56- Girls.- Yes.- Girls, OK. Girls. Girls.
1:22:56 > 1:23:01And with the formation of the Military Mounted Police in 1855,
1:23:01 > 1:23:06Aldershot at that time was a relatively small town, around about 700 people.
1:23:06 > 1:23:09The following year, 20,000 soldiers marched in
1:23:09 > 1:23:12and we needed a decent police force.
1:23:12 > 1:23:15I'm one to always hold soldiers in high esteem,
1:23:15 > 1:23:19and I would've thought they wouldn't need that much discipline.
1:23:19 > 1:23:22In Aldershot, the government was so worried
1:23:22 > 1:23:26that they actually sent down an official commission to find out what the garrison needed.
1:23:26 > 1:23:29It found out that it had 18 beer houses,
1:23:29 > 1:23:33- 25 pubs and a number of public brothels.- Yes.
1:23:33 > 1:23:36And Aldershot was, in the words of the reports,
1:23:36 > 1:23:40populated by thieves, publicans, prostitutes and receivers of stolen property.
1:23:42 > 1:23:47'Needless to say, things had to change, and so for tackling the most common problem amongst soldiers,
1:23:47 > 1:23:51public drunkenness, the punishment was a jolly good flogging.
1:23:51 > 1:23:55- Oh, you've got the cat o' nine tails!- My ignorance - why is it called that?
1:23:55 > 1:23:58Cat o' nine tails?
1:23:58 > 1:24:00- How many tails has it got? - How many tails has that got?
1:24:00 > 1:24:07- Nine. OK. - Approximately, yeah. So I'd flog you with this, stripped to the waist.
1:24:08 > 1:24:11And you know what they used to call that? You would "kiss the cat".
1:24:11 > 1:24:14Where would you flog the person? On their bottom?
1:24:14 > 1:24:16'Is he joking? I can't really tell.'
1:24:16 > 1:24:19No, it was on their back.
1:24:19 > 1:24:21They were stripped to the waist,
1:24:21 > 1:24:24tied to a triangle of pikes
1:24:24 > 1:24:29and the rest of the regiment was lined up in a hollow square to witness the punishment.
1:24:29 > 1:24:35The sergeant would take the cat, twirl it around his head twice and strike you across the back.
1:24:35 > 1:24:39How many lashes would you normally be giving out?
1:24:39 > 1:24:43For something like drunkenness, it was probably 200 lashes.
1:24:43 > 1:24:47- Gee whizz! And it would make you bleed?- It would actually go down to the bone.
1:24:47 > 1:24:51You'd see the spine. You'd see the white of the spine.
1:24:51 > 1:24:55It was actually only abolished in 1881
1:24:55 > 1:24:59- after yet another soldier died under punishment.- Yeah, pretty vicious.
1:24:59 > 1:25:05'Fortunately, methods of punishment and the Royal Military Police have moved on,
1:25:05 > 1:25:10'and by World War II, there were more 32,000 men amongst its ranks.
1:25:10 > 1:25:16'Since then, the RMP has been involved in every British campaign that's followed,
1:25:16 > 1:25:19'including Iraq and Afghanistan,
1:25:19 > 1:25:22'often being the first to arrive and the last to leave.'
1:25:22 > 1:25:27- Richard, we've been good boys, we've listened intently, I've learnt a lot, haven't you?- Yeah.
1:25:27 > 1:25:30We're not typical candidates for military justice.
1:25:30 > 1:25:33No. But if you want to put us through some training, I'm up for it.
1:25:33 > 1:25:37I'm sure we can find something that will make the pulse race a bit faster.
1:25:37 > 1:25:39OK! Yes, I'm ready. Are you?
1:25:39 > 1:25:41You're bigger than me, but I could be better.
1:25:41 > 1:25:47'Now, this has all the hallmarks of being an extremely bad idea.'
1:25:47 > 1:25:50You're far too lightly dressed. Grab a hold of that.
1:25:50 > 1:25:56- Uh! Flak jacket. Great, thank you. Kevlar bits in it. Nice. - Hurry up, come on.- OK.
1:25:56 > 1:26:00'Though I'm afraid uncomfortable outer wear isn't the worst of it.'
1:26:00 > 1:26:04- Right, follow me.- 'This man is.'
1:26:04 > 1:26:06Gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to Al.
1:26:06 > 1:26:09- Gentlemen, step forward. - Is it Big Al?
1:26:09 > 1:26:13Don't call my Big Al. If I needed a nickname from you, I'd have give you it.
1:26:13 > 1:26:17- Please don't shake my hand. From now on, you will call me Staff. You understand?- Why Staff?
1:26:17 > 1:26:22No questions! Get down! Press-ups! Let's go! In this position!
1:26:22 > 1:26:25- All the way to the ground.- How many? - Till I tell you to stop! Come on!
1:26:25 > 1:26:29One, two, three, four! We're not friends.
1:26:29 > 1:26:32- If I needed friends, I'd ask you on Facebook, wouldn't I?- Yes.
1:26:32 > 1:26:37- When I tell you to get up, you'll run with me and stay with me. Any questions?- No.- On your feet!
1:26:37 > 1:26:41Excellent, gentlemen. Jogging on the spot at all times. Keep going.
1:26:41 > 1:26:44Super. Let's go!
1:26:45 > 1:26:50Stay with me at all times. If you want more press-ups... Don't go ahead! Down! Quick!
1:26:50 > 1:26:55- Sorry. - One, two press-ups! Back on your feet! Let's go! Stay level with me!
1:26:55 > 1:26:58Jump up! And now down, touch the ground, all the way down!
1:26:58 > 1:27:01And up! And down, touch the ground!
1:27:01 > 1:27:07'Do you know, I think Charles is less fighting machine and more, well, cannon fodder, really.'
1:27:07 > 1:27:09One each!
1:27:09 > 1:27:12You go that side, you go that side.
1:27:12 > 1:27:14I thought this was an antique programme.
1:27:14 > 1:27:18'Yes, so did I! There again, I'm quite enjoying this.
1:27:18 > 1:27:21'Ooh!'
1:27:21 > 1:27:24And follow me again! Let's go!
1:27:24 > 1:27:27Well done, gents, nearly there. Ten more obstacles to go.
1:27:27 > 1:27:31'Poor old Charles. Back on the road, our next stop is Portsmouth,
1:27:31 > 1:27:35'home to Britain's Royal Navy for almost five centuries.
1:27:37 > 1:27:40'And that's a story which begins in 1527,
1:27:40 > 1:27:46'when Henry VIII took some of the money he made from the dissolution of the monasteries
1:27:46 > 1:27:50'and decreed that Portsmouth be the permanent base for his Navy.
1:27:50 > 1:27:56'It's also from here that Horatio Nelson made his final journey to the Battle of Trafalgar.
1:27:56 > 1:27:59'And then there's the shopping.'
1:27:59 > 1:28:02- Have you seen the size of that? - What?
1:28:02 > 1:28:04The sword. Good heavens, it's a crusader sword.
1:28:04 > 1:28:07A German bearing sword. £4,200.
1:28:07 > 1:28:10- Circa 1580. - We might get that for 20 quid.
1:28:10 > 1:28:12You'd get it for 60.
1:28:12 > 1:28:16'Which, by the way, is just about all the money you have left.'
1:28:16 > 1:28:19- Hello.- Peter Snow, how do you do? - Andrew Bennett, pleased to meet you.
1:28:19 > 1:28:24- Charlie Ross. Lovely to see you. - Well, what have you got to show us?
1:28:24 > 1:28:29'Well, there's certainly plenty to choose from. In fact, there's 6,000 square feet
1:28:29 > 1:28:32'crammed full of collectables.
1:28:32 > 1:28:36'And while there's anything and everything to do with the military,
1:28:36 > 1:28:38'that's not the only encouraging news.'
1:28:39 > 1:28:44A later clock, nothing like as nice as ours, £2,750.
1:28:44 > 1:28:47Watch out, Hanson.
1:28:47 > 1:28:50'Yes, indeed! But there's no time to rest on one's laurels.
1:28:50 > 1:28:54'What's the next purchase to be?'
1:28:54 > 1:28:59- How about that? Does that work? - A World War II air-raid siren. - How about that, yes?
1:28:59 > 1:29:01'Yeah. Once again, just one problem.
1:29:01 > 1:29:03'It's £250.'
1:29:03 > 1:29:06- Here we go.- Go for it.
1:29:08 > 1:29:11AIR-RAID SIREN BLARES Oh, no!
1:29:15 > 1:29:19'Can I say, I absolutely love it!'
1:29:19 > 1:29:24- We would love to buy it, but I'm afraid...- Wouldn't that be fantastic in the middle of the auction?
1:29:24 > 1:29:26I mean, that's a splendid thing!
1:29:26 > 1:29:30But, I mean, all we can do is about...
1:29:30 > 1:29:35- You can have it for 100. - We can't quite...- We can't...- Oh.
1:29:35 > 1:29:39- We can't quite manage 100. - Have you done your maths, Peter?
1:29:39 > 1:29:42OK, we could do about 60. Pathetic, isn't it?
1:29:42 > 1:29:46Er, seeing as your son stamped on a sextant I loaned him, you can have it for 30.
1:29:46 > 1:29:50- That'll be my sweet revenge. - What?- How much?- 30.
1:29:50 > 1:29:53- 30!- What? My dear man! CHARLIE LAUGHS
1:29:53 > 1:29:56Tell us the story about the sextant very quickly.
1:29:56 > 1:30:01- Dan was doing a series... - Empire Of The Seas.- That was it.
1:30:01 > 1:30:04- And he borrowed a sextant from me. - Yes?
1:30:04 > 1:30:09- Did the film shot and then he trod on it and broke the case. This'll be my sweet revenge.- Well done, Dan!
1:30:09 > 1:30:11- That is sensational!- It's OK.
1:30:11 > 1:30:15Thank you very much. It's very nice of you. We're thrilled with it.
1:30:15 > 1:30:22'So, thanks to Dan's clumsiness, Peter's got an almost 90 percent discount. This is too good!'
1:30:23 > 1:30:27- I need a gin and tonic!- Let's go and spend the rest on gin and tonics.
1:30:27 > 1:30:29- Get a few for that. - Thank you so much.
1:30:29 > 1:30:33'As the lads contemplate a celebratory tipple,
1:30:33 > 1:30:37'the competition is on its way. But are they already too late?'
1:30:37 > 1:30:40This is HMS Victory from that great time?
1:30:40 > 1:30:46Yeah. This is not a replica. It's been heavily repaired, but this is HMS Victory.
1:30:46 > 1:30:51That is the ship that Nelson fought on and died on. Unbelievable. People can go and see it.
1:30:52 > 1:30:56'No argument there. But I'm afraid there's no time for detours.
1:30:56 > 1:30:59'You two have some serious catching up to do!'
1:30:59 > 1:31:01Let's get involved.
1:31:01 > 1:31:07'Now, whilst Peter has done some superb negotiating, Dan still has an ace to play.
1:31:07 > 1:31:11'He and Charles have almost £200 in the coffers.'
1:31:11 > 1:31:14- This is a really good shop. - My idea of heaven. Look at that.
1:31:14 > 1:31:17World War II German Navy gun sight.
1:31:17 > 1:31:21It's a niche attraction, but that's beautiful.
1:31:21 > 1:31:25- It's how much?- Only £350.
1:31:25 > 1:31:29- This is just such cool stuff.- Isn't it?- I'm going to fit my house out.
1:31:29 > 1:31:34I'm going to take a picture of this cannon, send it to my wife and see if she wants to put it in our hall.
1:31:34 > 1:31:39- Imagine having a cannon in your house!- Why would you want one? - Because it's just awesome!
1:31:39 > 1:31:45'Good point, well made. Though perhaps this isn't quite the time for interior decorating.'
1:31:45 > 1:31:49- Dan! How you getting on?- Not bad, Dad.- Wonderful shop, eh?- Amazing.
1:31:49 > 1:31:54- You're going to have trouble beating us.- Why? - We got one or two interesting items.
1:31:54 > 1:32:00- We are very relaxed. I think almost too relaxed.- Yeah. We've got a couple of serious profit-makers
1:32:00 > 1:32:02- in the back of the car.- Ohh!
1:32:02 > 1:32:06- We can afford to be quite relaxed. - Wait till you see ours, though.
1:32:06 > 1:32:11- We are really confident, Charlie. We really are confident. - You haven't got a hope.
1:32:11 > 1:32:14- We've worked well together. - Yes. Very well. Yep.
1:32:14 > 1:32:19- Charlie and I are very proud of our relationship.- It's been sensational. This is my pet Rottweiler
1:32:19 > 1:32:24- and I spot it, he buys it. Works a treat. - THEY LAUGH
1:32:24 > 1:32:29- All right. - OK, we'll leave you to it. - You've obviously got a lot to do.
1:32:29 > 1:32:32- We have!- We've got a few more bargains to find.
1:32:32 > 1:32:34- CHARLES LAUGHS - I don't know.
1:32:34 > 1:32:39'So, amongst the thousands upon thousands of items in this shop,
1:32:39 > 1:32:43'what is it, do you think, that Dan and Charles are most drawn to?'
1:32:44 > 1:32:48- AIR-RAID SIREN BLARES - 'Bingo!'
1:32:51 > 1:32:53- World War II air-raid siren. - Now that is cool.
1:32:53 > 1:32:56I mean, that is just amazing.
1:32:57 > 1:33:00- Can you hear what I can hear? - This is so funny.
1:33:00 > 1:33:05- They've discovered the siren. - They've discovered the siren. The price is still on it.
1:33:05 > 1:33:08- Andrew, of course, has sold it to us.- I know.
1:33:08 > 1:33:14And they'll be looking at it thinking, "What a great thing, but it's £250, it's too much money".
1:33:14 > 1:33:17CHARLIE LAUGHS I think they're in serious trouble.
1:33:17 > 1:33:21If all they can do is look at something we've bought... THEY LAUGH
1:33:21 > 1:33:27'They're like a couple of giddy schoolgirls, aren't they? Though it is quite funny.
1:33:28 > 1:33:34'Speaking of education, a visit to Portsmouth isn't complete without a glimpse into the life
1:33:34 > 1:33:38'of one of Britain's most heroic figures - Horatio Nelson.'
1:33:41 > 1:33:43Here we are. Well done, Charlie.
1:33:43 > 1:33:47'And facing his ship, HMS Victory,
1:33:47 > 1:33:50'is the National Museum of the Royal Navy
1:33:50 > 1:33:56'which tells the story of a man who the poet Byron called Britannia's God of War!'
1:33:56 > 1:33:59- Hello!- Peter Snow. How do you do? - Matthew. Very nice to see you.
1:33:59 > 1:34:03- Charlie Ross. Lovely to meet you. - Are you ready to come in? - We are indeed.- Come on in.
1:34:03 > 1:34:08'Regarded as the greatest officer in the history of the Royal Navy,
1:34:08 > 1:34:12'Nelson's reputation is based on a series of remarkable victories,
1:34:12 > 1:34:17'culminating in the Battle of Trafalgar where he was killed in his moment of triumph.'
1:34:19 > 1:34:23The interesting thing about Nelson was he went to sea at the age of 12.
1:34:23 > 1:34:27He went there as a midshipman because his uncle was a post captain in the Navy.
1:34:27 > 1:34:31So he could get himself to sea early. So it's very nice to see
1:34:31 > 1:34:36Nelson's own inscription on this book here where I think he says, if we can read it,
1:34:36 > 1:34:42"A present from my uncle, Captain Suckling, 1771."
1:34:42 > 1:34:48- Was Nelson seasick?- Yes. We know from his letters that he was seasick as a young boy when he first went to sea.
1:34:48 > 1:34:51And I think continued to suffer at times throughout his life.
1:34:51 > 1:34:54Poor guy. What else have you got to show us?
1:34:54 > 1:34:59- A writing box here.- Yes, a writing box, which we can see was supplied
1:34:59 > 1:35:04from a maker in Spitalfields in London. This is a lovely piece of campaign furniture,
1:35:04 > 1:35:09which you could pack up and take to sea. You can use this for writing your letters.
1:35:09 > 1:35:12- Did he write to his girlfriend, Emma? - He did.
1:35:12 > 1:35:15'And when we say girlfriend, we mean mistress,
1:35:15 > 1:35:19'as both Nelson and Emma were married to other people.'
1:35:19 > 1:35:25We know him and that relationship with Emma from the letters, the very passionate letters that he sent.
1:35:25 > 1:35:29The thing about him is that it's completely one-sided correspondence.
1:35:29 > 1:35:33- We don't know what her letters to him were.- Really?
1:35:33 > 1:35:36Because they had a pact that they would burn their letters to each other.
1:35:36 > 1:35:40He stuck to his side of the bargain and she didn't. And thank goodness she didn't.
1:35:42 > 1:35:47'Emma, the gorgeous Lady Hamilton, had a really racy past
1:35:47 > 1:35:50'which included running a bathhouse in London.
1:35:50 > 1:35:55'As for her affair with Horatio, not only did her husband know about it,
1:35:55 > 1:36:00'but it's thought that he condoned it and they lived as a menage a trois.'
1:36:00 > 1:36:03- So here is the lady herself. - Oh, how lovely.
1:36:04 > 1:36:08- Beautifully executed, isn't it? - It is.
1:36:08 > 1:36:10Tell me, is that a gold frame?
1:36:10 > 1:36:12- I think it is, yes.- Gosh!
1:36:12 > 1:36:17And done by one of the most famous miniaturists of the time, Henry Bone.
1:36:17 > 1:36:19- Bone, yeah.- A lovely...
1:36:19 > 1:36:23- Did she give this to him?- She gave that to exchange that with Nelson
1:36:23 > 1:36:28so that he could take that to sea to remember her. And there's a little surprise on the back.
1:36:28 > 1:36:30- Am I allowed to touch it?- Yes.
1:36:31 > 1:36:34- Oh, hair!- Yeah.- Her hair.
1:36:34 > 1:36:38So she was famous for this lovely auburn hair that she had.
1:36:38 > 1:36:42- Gosh.- Very famously, in some of the portraits, it's tumbling down. - It's beautiful!
1:36:42 > 1:36:48- And you can see it curled there with a little pearl clasp. - How wonderfully well-preserved.
1:36:49 > 1:36:54'On 21st October 1805, Nelson won his final battle at Trafalgar,
1:36:54 > 1:36:58'where he inflicted a crushing defeat on the French and Spanish fleet,
1:36:58 > 1:37:02'destroying 17 of their 33 ships.
1:37:02 > 1:37:07'But as he crossed the enemy line, he was hit by a French sharp shooter and died shortly thereafter.'
1:37:07 > 1:37:13This very grand funeral invitation, if you were lucky enough to go.
1:37:14 > 1:37:17Oh, very smart. Yes.
1:37:17 > 1:37:23- Who's that lucky person?- This was, "Admit Lieutenant Thomas Wing".
1:37:23 > 1:37:28- My word, that would've been an event to be at, wouldn't it? - It was an incredible event.
1:37:28 > 1:37:31There wasn't only a funeral in St Paul's,
1:37:31 > 1:37:36there was also a lying in state at the Royal Hospital in Greenwich.
1:37:36 > 1:37:40Then there was a great procession...
1:37:41 > 1:37:44..where the body was carried up the river from Greenwich.
1:37:46 > 1:37:52What a wonderful picture. That really is extraordinary. Spectacular procession going up the Thames.
1:37:52 > 1:37:55- We'd like that for our auction, Peter.- Yes.
1:37:55 > 1:37:58- 10 quid? - No, can't let it go, I'm afraid. - CHARLIE LAUGHS
1:37:58 > 1:38:0015. 15. THEY LAUGH
1:38:00 > 1:38:04- Steady, steady.- It's not for sale, it's not for sale.
1:38:04 > 1:38:08'The funeral procession included 32 admirals,
1:38:08 > 1:38:12'more than 100 captains and an escort of 10,000 troops
1:38:12 > 1:38:19'who took Nelson's coffin to St Paul's Cathedral for what would be a four-hour service.'
1:38:19 > 1:38:22You can get a sense then of the interior here of St Paul's
1:38:22 > 1:38:29with the captured standards of the French and the Spanish fleets hung up there.
1:38:29 > 1:38:35And we know what a big public event it was. You can see the crowds in those pictures.
1:38:35 > 1:38:38But we're lucky enough to have another eye-witnesses.
1:38:38 > 1:38:44Things like this, which is a letter from a boy writing to his father,
1:38:44 > 1:38:48and you can see he has his own sketch there of the funeral carriage,
1:38:48 > 1:38:51which actually is pretty good.
1:38:51 > 1:38:56- Well, well. - He was a very, very popular man, wasn't he, Nelson?- He was.
1:38:56 > 1:39:02What about Nelson's affair with Emma Hamilton? What difference do you think that made to his popularity?
1:39:02 > 1:39:06I don't know if it affected his popularity as a naval hero.
1:39:06 > 1:39:12It certainly led to difficulties in his public life and gave him more notoriety, I think.
1:39:12 > 1:39:17- He was a married man, after all. - He was still married and he was still married when he died.
1:39:17 > 1:39:23And so, in fact, when he died, it was his wife who got the very handsome public pension.
1:39:23 > 1:39:27She got £2,000 a year as an annuity until she died,
1:39:27 > 1:39:30- which was a very significant sum. - Yes, indeed.
1:39:30 > 1:39:34Whilst Emma received nothing at all.
1:39:34 > 1:39:40'Horatio Nelson's passion for risk-taking lost him the sight of an eye,
1:39:40 > 1:39:43'an arm, and ultimately his life.
1:39:43 > 1:39:49'But his leadership and his tactical genius make him a legend Britain shall never forget.'
1:39:49 > 1:39:54- MILITARY DRUMS - 'As for Dan and Charles, they really are struggling
1:39:54 > 1:39:58'to pick up just one thing from this gargantuan shop.'
1:39:58 > 1:40:02- What I would say to you, Hanson... - Yes.- A, it's £12,000,
1:40:02 > 1:40:06and B, we've already bought a massive wooden thing already so let's spend it on...
1:40:06 > 1:40:09- Which one do you prefer? - I prefer this one.- OK.
1:40:09 > 1:40:11'Dan still hates the hat stand, then.
1:40:11 > 1:40:14'Though right now, we need to focus on the shopping.'
1:40:14 > 1:40:17Quite good, isn't it? It's a World War II German fur-lined flying helmet.
1:40:17 > 1:40:20- 65 quid? - That, to me, seems a bit cheap.
1:40:20 > 1:40:25- That's what I want to hear. - Well, I know. And at auction you may be guided between 50 and 70.
1:40:25 > 1:40:30Because what's interesting about that, is that would sell... The name...
1:40:30 > 1:40:32If you turn up on the day, you see, "Ah, German fur..."
1:40:32 > 1:40:36- You don't have to think about it overnight.- Exactly.- It sells itself.
1:40:36 > 1:40:42- Descriptively, it's all there.- Yeah. - It's got, what, seven or eight magical words. It is what it is.
1:40:42 > 1:40:46'You know what? It looks comfy enough, but is it a must-have?'
1:40:46 > 1:40:51- Andrew, what's it worth at auction? - I think that's a very keen price. I must have had a very good buy.
1:40:51 > 1:40:54- I think you could cover yourself in that, quite happily.- Yeah.
1:40:54 > 1:40:57- Especially if you sold it for a bit less.- It could be done.
1:40:57 > 1:41:02Andrew, I'll be honest with you. We want to buy it for maybe half what your price is at.
1:41:02 > 1:41:06- I just couldn't do that. - What's your very best? - I'd do it for 50.- What about 40?
1:41:06 > 1:41:11- 45.- I'd say yes to that. - Would you? You know what? I'm not sure about buying it.
1:41:11 > 1:41:14It's up to you. You wouldn't drop it a bit more, Andrew?
1:41:14 > 1:41:21- 43?- 43, OK.- Andrew, there's no more... We're very close, we're just disagreeing about the price.
1:41:21 > 1:41:26- Yep, go on, 40.- 40.- I think it's a bit of a gamble, but it's up to you.
1:41:26 > 1:41:30I think it might make 60, it might make 25.
1:41:30 > 1:41:33- It's a lot...- 25!- ..which is going to have a really wide...
1:41:34 > 1:41:37..price range. It could fly, it could fall, quite literally.
1:41:37 > 1:41:42- I feel good about our other stuff. - Yeah, I do. - So I am going to say yes at 40. OK?
1:41:42 > 1:41:47- Fine.- Anyway, even if it doesn't fly, it did fly once.- Yeah, exactly.
1:41:47 > 1:41:52- I am going to say yes at 40. - OK, wingman. On your head be it. - HE LAUGHS
1:41:52 > 1:41:54This is the man who bought the Bavarian bear talking!
1:41:54 > 1:41:58'He really does have issues with that hat stand. Dear, oh, dear.
1:42:00 > 1:42:04'Now, for the last 500 years, Portsmouth has been at the centre of many a battle.
1:42:04 > 1:42:08'And today, yet another comes to an end,
1:42:08 > 1:42:12'as our competitors reveal to each other what they've bought.'
1:42:12 > 1:42:16- There it is.- Oh, that's interesting. - Little inro.- Sweet.- It is sweet.
1:42:16 > 1:42:21- Why did you buy it? - I just thought it looked wonderfully mellow and useful.
1:42:21 > 1:42:25- I think I could put my antibiotics inside it.- Yes.- My pills.
1:42:25 > 1:42:28And it's a rather jolly little object, I think.
1:42:28 > 1:42:32- How do you rate it?- I don't rate that very highly, I've got to say.
1:42:32 > 1:42:35I think they probably paid too much for it, knowing Dad.
1:42:35 > 1:42:37- £22.50.- 22.50, yes.
1:42:37 > 1:42:42That's a good object. I would happily guide that for sale at between £30 and £50.
1:42:42 > 1:42:45I think it's a nice object. Decorative. Well done.
1:42:45 > 1:42:47Now look at that! Look at that!
1:42:47 > 1:42:50- Glasses, glasses, glasses! - Beautiful.
1:42:50 > 1:42:55I like the little military figures here and the bawdy revelry scene.
1:42:55 > 1:42:59- I love this!- Yep, it's good.- Do you think they're German rather than... - How old are they?
1:42:59 > 1:43:04They could be Dutch but they would date, we think, to probably around 1910, 1920.
1:43:04 > 1:43:07- The early 20th century. - Well done, that's terrific.
1:43:07 > 1:43:11The reason we like them is the quality of artistry is very good and the detail is superb.
1:43:11 > 1:43:16- What do you think we paid for those? - Well...- £15 or something ridiculous.
1:43:16 > 1:43:20- We paid £15.- Oh! Spot on!
1:43:20 > 1:43:24- Well done! - Do you like my valuation skills? - That is very impressive.- Thank you.
1:43:24 > 1:43:30- I feel like we're neck and neck. I fell we've both bought some good stuff.- Yep.- Your turn, Peter.
1:43:30 > 1:43:33Well, I'm afraid we have another stocking filler.
1:43:33 > 1:43:37I think it's more than a stocking filler. It's a rather pretty little tea strainer.
1:43:37 > 1:43:40- That's nice.- Very nice.
1:43:40 > 1:43:46We think it's Dutch silver. Got a little windmill at the top. It's rather jolly.
1:43:46 > 1:43:51Peter walked into the shop and while we were looking round, and I was looking round,
1:43:51 > 1:43:56I suddenly heard the word, "Done!" And they were shaking hands!
1:43:56 > 1:44:02'And on this rare occasion, he probably paid too much for it. Still, there we are, moving on.'
1:44:02 > 1:44:06- Oh, look!- Oh, heavens above! Oh, that's very impressive.
1:44:06 > 1:44:10- Oh, they're great! - Oh, they're great fun.
1:44:10 > 1:44:13- Oh, they're fantastic! - They're absolutely wonderful.
1:44:13 > 1:44:18Original, World War II, drawn by a fellow officer of his friends he served with.
1:44:18 > 1:44:21- Charcoal and gouache?- Exactly.
1:44:21 > 1:44:24- Original frames.- Yes.- Very good.
1:44:24 > 1:44:27- I think they're splendid. I really do.- Well done!
1:44:27 > 1:44:31They cost us a big, blind £90.
1:44:31 > 1:44:36- That will appeal to somebody in the saleroom.- I think this is my uncle. - THEY LAUGH
1:44:36 > 1:44:39We can't bring the next lot to the table, I'm afraid.
1:44:39 > 1:44:44I'd like you to be very aware aurally.
1:44:44 > 1:44:47- Aurally, really? - You have to be very quiet.
1:44:47 > 1:44:50What is this he's doing?
1:44:50 > 1:44:53AIR-RAID SIREN BLARES
1:44:53 > 1:44:55Ah!
1:45:00 > 1:45:02Now that is useful.
1:45:02 > 1:45:06See, Dad, if someone is about to drop bombs on your house,
1:45:06 > 1:45:09you can use the air-raid siren.
1:45:09 > 1:45:14- Now, this was the finest piece of negotiating. Well, the second finest...- Hold on.
1:45:14 > 1:45:17- It was priced at £250.- £250. What do you think it would make?
1:45:17 > 1:45:22- Don't tell me you bought it for next to nothing. - Well, not next to nothing, no.
1:45:22 > 1:45:26- We paid a substantial sum. - Well, I very rudely offered
1:45:26 > 1:45:29the extremely nice man who owns this place, Andrew,
1:45:29 > 1:45:33- £60 for it.- You didn't!- Hang on, wait! That's what he offered.
1:45:33 > 1:45:36But he said he'd take £30.
1:45:36 > 1:45:40- CHARLIE LAUGHS Do you know why, Dan? Do you know why?- Why?
1:45:41 > 1:45:47- Shall I tell him?- Yep.- Because you borrowed a sextant from him once,
1:45:47 > 1:45:51for your programme on The Empire Of The Seas...
1:45:51 > 1:45:54- Right.- ..and you broke the sextant.
1:45:54 > 1:45:57So he thought he'd help me beat you...
1:45:57 > 1:46:02THEY LAUGH ..by breaking you, young man.
1:46:02 > 1:46:04How about that? How about that?
1:46:04 > 1:46:09- Dan, I'm sorry. - I think that pendulum has just swung firmly in your favour.
1:46:09 > 1:46:14'Speaking of World War II, Dan and Charles bought this, unfortunately.'
1:46:14 > 1:46:19So you see, it's quite appropriate to place this...
1:46:20 > 1:46:25- An Eskimo hat.- ..with your purchase. Excuse me?- World War II German flying helmet.- Eskimo hat?
1:46:25 > 1:46:28It looks to me like a lump of old rubbish.
1:46:28 > 1:46:31THEY LAUGH I'm terribly sorry. I'm sure you're right.
1:46:31 > 1:46:35- No, no. There were a lot of these. - But don't touch it, it will fall to bits.
1:46:35 > 1:46:39- Careful!- It's a World War II German flying helmet.- I'm very moved.
1:46:39 > 1:46:42- Yeah.- We're not concerned. You've heard of the Great Escape.
1:46:42 > 1:46:46We've got one really big final object to show off with, OK, so don't worry about it.
1:46:46 > 1:46:50- Is it as good as ours? Do you want to have a look?- Please.
1:46:50 > 1:46:53- So this is your big finale. - This was our big purchase.
1:46:53 > 1:46:57'Yes, and it's quite a good one. Let's hear it for grey power!'
1:46:57 > 1:47:02I've always wanted to buy a grandfather clock on a small budget.
1:47:02 > 1:47:07And when you have a man like Peter Snow with you, you can do that.
1:47:07 > 1:47:12I've got one thing to say, how on earth did you buy that within budget?
1:47:12 > 1:47:16- How on earth did you buy that piece within budget?- I don't know.
1:47:16 > 1:47:19- Because that clock, if it's a period clock...- It's a proper clock.
1:47:19 > 1:47:24- Is it named?- It is named? - Who's the maker?- Foden of Congleton. - It gets better.
1:47:24 > 1:47:27- THEY LAUGH - I just can't believe it. Peter!
1:47:27 > 1:47:32- It ought to be conservatively estimated between £500 and £800. - Yeah.
1:47:32 > 1:47:37After a lot of haggling, and there was a lot of haggling, we bought it for...
1:47:37 > 1:47:42- We went right up to 275. - Did you really?- We had to go to 280, if you remember.- 280, sorry!
1:47:42 > 1:47:45280 between friends. I think it's an absolute cracker.
1:47:45 > 1:47:50- But, you know, I think we can be as big as you. - Yeah, come on.- Here we go.
1:47:50 > 1:47:53- This is a disaster. - We can be as big as you.
1:47:53 > 1:47:56I think we've bought something quite good.
1:47:56 > 1:48:01'Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Bavarian hat stand!'
1:48:01 > 1:48:04- It is carved wood, isn't it? - It is carved wood.
1:48:04 > 1:48:07- What, you mean not plastic?- Yeah, they make a very good reproduction.
1:48:07 > 1:48:11- Oh, really?- But that's a carved wood one.- That's a real carved wood one.
1:48:11 > 1:48:16- So how old is that? - And we're going more towards, I think, probably...- 1920.- Absolutely.
1:48:16 > 1:48:21- What did we pay for that?- £250? - It cost us just £98.- What?
1:48:21 > 1:48:26- £98!- Oh, you creeps!- Well done. - Don't try and be nice. You guys...
1:48:26 > 1:48:31- No, I'm not going to be nice. - I mean it! - That makes our clock look expensive.
1:48:31 > 1:48:36- Get out of here!- Isn't it wonderful? - I'll see you at the auction.- I can't wait, it's going to be a finale.
1:48:36 > 1:48:40- Well done there.- 'Well, plenty of competitive spirit there,
1:48:40 > 1:48:42'but what do the troops really think?'
1:48:42 > 1:48:47We have been blown out of the water. Do you know what it's like? I'll tell you what it's like.
1:48:47 > 1:48:52It's like if we rode up in a dinghy and tried to take on that, one of the greatest warships ever built.
1:48:52 > 1:48:56- That's what it's like.- No, we're not. Sometimes I get lucky.
1:48:56 > 1:49:01And with that bear, I kid you not, that's been the best thing I've found in my Road Trip history.
1:49:01 > 1:49:06- Believe me, it could save the day. Come on.- It better do!
1:49:06 > 1:49:10- I'd be disappointed if we lost. - So would I, my goodness me.
1:49:10 > 1:49:13- We've got to beat Dan! - I think for them to beat us,
1:49:13 > 1:49:19- that hat stand is going to have to make £400 or £500. - OK.- And I don't think it will.
1:49:19 > 1:49:22'Well, let's find out, shall we?
1:49:22 > 1:49:27'Because after beginning this romp through history in Portsmouth,
1:49:27 > 1:49:33'it comes to an end in Billingshurst, West Sussex, where, needless to say, it's auction time!
1:49:35 > 1:49:40'So, as Dan Snow, Peter Snow, Charlie Ross and Charles Hanson
1:49:40 > 1:49:45'prepare to take their seats at Bellmans auctioneers, we'd like to wish them the best of British.'
1:49:45 > 1:49:50- Here we go!- Onward to battle! After you, chaps.
1:49:50 > 1:49:55'Both teams began this journey with £400 in the kitty and in this game of youth versus experience,
1:49:55 > 1:50:00'we've seen Peter and Charlie spend an exciting £352.50
1:50:00 > 1:50:03'on four auction lots.
1:50:03 > 1:50:05AIR-RAID SIREN BLARES
1:50:05 > 1:50:10'Dan and Charles, meanwhile, talk a big game,
1:50:10 > 1:50:14'but only parted with £243, also on four auction lots.
1:50:14 > 1:50:17HE LAUGHS
1:50:18 > 1:50:21'But it all comes down to these good people.
1:50:21 > 1:50:24'So, how does auctioneer William Passfield,
1:50:24 > 1:50:29'rate our competitors' chances, especially those big ticket items?'
1:50:29 > 1:50:33The Black Forest bear hall stand, hat stand, call it what you will,
1:50:33 > 1:50:36it's a nice lot, they're always popular, and it's good novelty
1:50:36 > 1:50:41and everyone likes carved animals, pigs, bears, dogs. I think we'll do well on that one.
1:50:41 > 1:50:46The longcase clock, it's a good maker. I hope for about £300 or £400 on it.
1:50:46 > 1:50:51'Well, he's not giving anything away. So, let the auction begin!
1:50:51 > 1:50:55'First up it's the World War II German flying hat.
1:50:55 > 1:50:58'Best of luck, Dan and Charles! You might just need it.'
1:50:59 > 1:51:01There's a picture of a violin on screen.
1:51:01 > 1:51:04- 10 is bid.- Come on! - 15 now? 15 anywhere?
1:51:04 > 1:51:0815 anywhere? Let's see 15. Winter is coming. 15 there.
1:51:08 > 1:51:10- Oh, it's the lady in the front row.- And 5.
1:51:10 > 1:51:14- No? All out at £20.- One more! - HAMMER BANGS
1:51:14 > 1:51:20- Oh, dear.- 'Yes, even before commission, that's a £20 loss.'
1:51:20 > 1:51:22It is disappointing. Half price.
1:51:22 > 1:51:25'But staying with World War II,
1:51:25 > 1:51:28'next it's Peter and Charlie's air-raid siren,
1:51:28 > 1:51:32'which they're hoping will make them a small fortune.'
1:51:32 > 1:51:34And I've got interest in here taking me up to £55.
1:51:34 > 1:51:37Do I see 60 anywhere? 65. And 70.
1:51:37 > 1:51:41No, he says no. 70. And 5. And 80. And 5. And 90.
1:51:41 > 1:51:44No, they're shaking their head. Still with me at 85.
1:51:44 > 1:51:4890 anywhere else? All done with me at £85?
1:51:48 > 1:51:51Yeah, Peter!
1:51:51 > 1:51:56- £85!- That's not bad, not bad, not bad, not bad.
1:51:56 > 1:52:02'Yes indeed! That's a respectable £55 profit, lads,
1:52:02 > 1:52:06'putting you firmly in the lead. Though, for how long?
1:52:06 > 1:52:11'Look out because here comes the young ones' German spill vases.'
1:52:11 > 1:52:14- I've got two bids on the book of £25.- Yes!
1:52:14 > 1:52:17- 30 anywhere? - 'They're off to an exciting start.'
1:52:17 > 1:52:2030 from anyone? Maiden bid on the book. Is that 30, sir?
1:52:20 > 1:52:23Clears the commission at £30. Do I see the 5 anywhere?
1:52:23 > 1:52:27- 5 anywhere? All done. - 'Oh, that was short-lived.'
1:52:27 > 1:52:30Not so good, but well done.
1:52:30 > 1:52:33'The good news is, it's a £15 profit.
1:52:33 > 1:52:38'But I'm afraid, Dan and Charles, you're still in the red.
1:52:38 > 1:52:42'As for Peter and Charlie, their Dutch tea strainer is coming up.'
1:52:42 > 1:52:45Start me off at £10 for the tea strainer. £10.
1:52:45 > 1:52:4710 is bid. And 15. And 20. And 5.
1:52:47 > 1:52:53And 30? No, 25 with our ladies. Yes, 25 I see. Do I see 30?
1:52:53 > 1:52:5730 anywhere else. It's £25. All done at £25?
1:52:57 > 1:53:00'That's £5 before commission, not bad,
1:53:00 > 1:53:03'especially as Charlie was still haggling
1:53:03 > 1:53:05'when Peter said, "It's a deal!"
1:53:05 > 1:53:08'Moving on now, it's Dan and Charles's
1:53:08 > 1:53:11'set of World War II caricatures.'
1:53:11 > 1:53:14Who's going to start me these at £10? £10.
1:53:14 > 1:53:1610 is bid. 15 now. 15 anywhere?
1:53:16 > 1:53:23- 15 anywhere?- Come on, keep going! - And 20. And 5. And 30. And 5.
1:53:23 > 1:53:25And 40.
1:53:25 > 1:53:30- Go on, ladies.- Oh, no, she's not. - No, £35 to my right. Do I see 40?
1:53:30 > 1:53:32Selling for £35.
1:53:32 > 1:53:3640. And 5. No, he says. £40, dead centre.
1:53:36 > 1:53:39All done at 40?
1:53:39 > 1:53:42Sorry about that. Oh, dear! HE LAUGHS
1:53:42 > 1:53:45I mean, I know it's your lot, but those were too cheap.
1:53:45 > 1:53:48'Oh, dear, it's not looking good.
1:53:48 > 1:53:50'The boys are losing money hand over fist.
1:53:50 > 1:53:53'On to Peter and Charlie's Japanese inro.
1:53:53 > 1:53:57'Can this quirky piece make them even more money?'
1:53:57 > 1:54:01I've got £30 to start. Do I see 5 anywhere?
1:54:01 > 1:54:035 anywhere? 5. 40. And 5. No?
1:54:03 > 1:54:05Still with me at £40. Do I see 5 from anyone?
1:54:05 > 1:54:09All out with me. And 5 again. And 50. And 5.
1:54:09 > 1:54:11Clears my commission at 55. 60 now?
1:54:11 > 1:54:14All done, selling for £55.
1:54:14 > 1:54:17- Brilliant!- Good. Can't complain. - Not bad.
1:54:17 > 1:54:20- It's good, Dad.- Jolly good profit. - You're edging.
1:54:21 > 1:54:24'A profit, but nothing to shout about.
1:54:25 > 1:54:29'But hang on, it's time for our big ticket items.
1:54:29 > 1:54:31'This could change everything.
1:54:31 > 1:54:36'Starting with the item Charles loves and Dan despises.
1:54:36 > 1:54:40'Yes, it's the infamous Bavarian hat stand.'
1:54:40 > 1:54:43- This is everything on this. Everything.- Good luck, good luck.
1:54:43 > 1:54:46Who's going to start me at £50 for this? Who's going to start?
1:54:46 > 1:54:51£50 is bid. I'll take 5 now. 5 anywhere? 5. 55. And 60.
1:54:51 > 1:54:54And 5. And 70. And 5. And 80.

1:55:00 > 1:55:02140. He's shaking his head. Are you sure?
1:55:02 > 1:55:07- I've got the luxury of a phone. - Oh, the phone!- 140. 150. 160.
1:55:07 > 1:55:10170. 180.
1:55:10 > 1:55:13190. 200.
1:55:13 > 1:55:18- 210. 220.- Ah, we're in trouble.
1:55:18 > 1:55:22No. At 220. It's 210 in the room. Do I see 220 anywhere?
1:55:22 > 1:55:26It's to the room for 210. 220, new face.
1:55:26 > 1:55:28'My goodness, this is exciting!'
1:55:28 > 1:55:31260. 270. 280.
1:55:31 > 1:55:35- 290. 300.- One more. - Come on, Mr Fowler, 300.
1:55:35 > 1:55:38Round it off. I hate an uneven figure. 300.

1:55:50 > 1:55:54No, he says no at 420. Thank you for your help. It's 410.
1:55:54 > 1:55:57Tim's still got hold of it. 420 on the floor, last chance.
1:55:57 > 1:56:00- Selling for 410. - HAMMER BANGS
1:56:00 > 1:56:03- Oh!- Yes!
1:56:03 > 1:56:05'I always knew it would do well.
1:56:05 > 1:56:08'Time for someone to eat a little humble pie, perhaps?'
1:56:08 > 1:56:12You know what? I hated that hat stand. But now I love it.
1:56:12 > 1:56:14'That's the spirit!
1:56:14 > 1:56:19'And let me be the first to congratulate you on a pre-commission profit of £312.
1:56:19 > 1:56:21'Outstanding!
1:56:21 > 1:56:25'But this battle of father versus son isn't over yet.
1:56:25 > 1:56:28'Peter and Charlie's grandfather clock is up.
1:56:28 > 1:56:32'And all going to plan, this should be their coup de grace!'
1:56:32 > 1:56:34Oh, Peter.
1:56:34 > 1:56:38- This is it.- Peter, hold my hand, Peter.- I've got you.
1:56:38 > 1:56:44And I have got bids here starting me in at £210. Looking for 230 now.
1:56:44 > 1:56:47230. 240. 250. 260. 270. 280.
1:56:47 > 1:56:51290. 300. 310. No, he says, it's £300 to me.
1:56:51 > 1:56:54Looking for 10 from anyone. 10 from anyone.
1:56:54 > 1:56:58£300 on the book. Are we all out? It's on the book at £300.
1:56:58 > 1:57:02- HAMMER BANGS - Yes!- Oh, no.- Yes!
1:57:02 > 1:57:05'What a savage blow!
1:57:05 > 1:57:07'That's a mere £20 profit.
1:57:07 > 1:57:10'Which means the young ones take the victory.'
1:57:11 > 1:57:15- Fair game. Well done, mate.- Well done, Peter.- Well done, well done.
1:57:15 > 1:57:19- Well done, Danny boy.- Ah! - Congratulations.- Well done, Dan.
1:57:19 > 1:57:24- That clock, that's a travesty. - Never mind. It's been a wonderful trip.- We've enjoyed it.
1:57:24 > 1:57:26- Just a rubbish end. - THEY LAUGH
1:57:26 > 1:57:31'What a contest it's been. And with everything tallied, I can now tell you that, after commission,
1:57:31 > 1:57:36'Peter and Charlie have made a profit of £28.80,
1:57:36 > 1:57:41'which means they end this road trip with £428.80.
1:57:41 > 1:57:44- 'Good show!' - HAMMER BANGS
1:57:44 > 1:57:49'Meanwhile, thanks to one Bavarian bear, who'd have thought it,
1:57:49 > 1:57:54'Dan and Charles have made a handsome profit of £167,
1:57:54 > 1:57:59'giving them a grand and winning total of £567. Well done!'
1:57:59 > 1:58:04- Chaps, I'm afraid we've lost fair and square.- We all made money though, we all made money.
1:58:04 > 1:58:08- The way it went up and down, fascinating. I thought we'd got them. - Like a swing-o-meter.
1:58:08 > 1:58:13- Like a rollercoaster. - Yes, it was like swinging. Went the wrong way in the end.
1:58:13 > 1:58:16- # War - 'Yes, it's been a hard-fought battle.
1:58:16 > 1:58:20- # What is it good for - # Absolutely nothing
1:58:21 > 1:58:24# War, huh, yeah
1:58:24 > 1:58:28'Peter and Dan went head-to-head, guns blazing and all that.'
1:58:28 > 1:58:31- I'll give you one hell of a beating. - Got to beat Dan.
1:58:31 > 1:58:34'And crikey, do these two know how to negotiate!'
1:58:34 > 1:58:38- What? That's a huge amount of money. - Less than three figures, I'd feel happier.
1:58:38 > 1:58:41You can have it for 30. That will be my sweet revenge.
1:58:41 > 1:58:43If it was teens...
1:58:43 > 1:58:46'But what clinched this victory was...'
1:58:46 > 1:58:50- I quite like him. - Really?- Yeah. I do. - HE LAUGHS
1:58:50 > 1:58:55- 'Which, strangely, Dan took a while to love.'- I think this is a mistake.
1:58:55 > 1:58:57This is the man who bought the Bavarian bear!
1:58:57 > 1:59:00'Though, he got there in the end.'
1:59:00 > 1:59:02- Selling for 410. - HAMMER BANGS
1:59:02 > 1:59:06You know what? I hated that hat stand, but now I love it.
1:59:06 > 1:59:11'All the money our celebrities and experts make will go to Children In Need.
1:59:11 > 1:59:14'So, thank you everyone, you've all done very well,
