0:00:02 > 0:00:03The nation's favourite celebrities...
0:00:03 > 0:00:05Got some proper bling here.
0:00:05 > 0:00:06Paired up with an expert...
0:00:06 > 0:00:07Point, point!
0:00:07 > 0:00:09And a classic car.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Get your legs up!
0:00:11 > 0:00:14Their mission, to scour Britain for antiques.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17All breakages must be paid for.
0:00:17 > 0:00:18This is a good find, is it not?
0:00:18 > 0:00:21The aim, to make the biggest profit at auction.
0:00:21 > 0:00:22GAVEL BANGS
0:00:22 > 0:00:23But it's no easy ride.
0:00:23 > 0:00:28Who will find a hidden gem? Who will take the biggest risks?
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Putting my antiques head-on.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32Will anybody follow expert advice?
0:00:32 > 0:00:34I think it's horrible!
0:00:34 > 0:00:36There will be worthy winners.
0:00:36 > 0:00:37This is better than Christmas!
0:00:37 > 0:00:39And valiant losers.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Time to put your pedal to the metal.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45This is Celebrity Antiques Road Trip.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49Yeah...
0:00:49 > 0:00:51MUSIC: GRANDSTAND THEME TUNE
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Today we're in south-east England with a pair of super sporty pals
0:00:54 > 0:00:59cruising around in a snazzy 1989 Jaguar XJS.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04Oh, yes, it's Olympian Mark Foster and Paralympian Ade Adepitan.
0:01:06 > 0:01:10- I reckon I've known you probably about eight years, seven or eight years?- Yeah.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15- We then crossed each other's paths and did a lot more events together since 2012.- Yeah.
0:01:15 > 0:01:182012, I had to put up with you all the time. Flipping heck.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19MARK LAUGHS
0:01:19 > 0:01:23Going on about, "Oh, I was so fast in the pool. I was pacy!
0:01:23 > 0:01:24"No-one could deal with me!"
0:01:27 > 0:01:31- You were a sea person and I was a land person.- A land animal.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32We don't mix.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34MARK LAUGHS
0:01:34 > 0:01:37You with your flipping flipper feet.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41And what flippery feet they are, ha!
0:01:41 > 0:01:46During an impressive 23-year career, Essex-born swimmer Mark won
0:01:46 > 0:01:5216 world titles, competed in five Olympic games and broke eight world records.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56What was your first Olympics?
0:01:56 > 0:01:58When this car was built, about 1988.
0:01:58 > 0:01:59ADE LAUGHS
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- The Seoul Olympics in '88.- You went to Seoul!- Seoul in '88, yeah.
0:02:02 > 0:02:07- Dude went to Seoul!- I GOT "Seoul"! - Jeez, man!
0:02:07 > 0:02:08Seoul! That was in black and white!
0:02:08 > 0:02:10THEY LAUGH
0:02:10 > 0:02:13Now, I was in Sydney in 2000.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- So, how old were you, then, in 2000? - 2000, I was 26.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I was quite old for my debut.
0:02:19 > 0:02:24Ade is a Paralympic gold medallist in wheelchair basketball,
0:02:24 > 0:02:27an actor and a TV presenter.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32Among his many awards is an MBE he received in 2005.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35In fairness, the first time I remember seeing you,
0:02:35 > 0:02:38not meeting you, would have been adverts.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- I remember seeing all the adverts. - Oh, here we go!
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Spinning around on the chair, the dreads flowing.
0:02:42 > 0:02:43Yeah, that's the one!
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Do you know what? That was a BBC ONE ident.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48- I did that back in 2002.- Wow.
0:02:48 > 0:02:54And when it first came out, I thought it was only going to be something really small.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57It ended up being on 48,000 times.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Looks like today is very much a battle of land versus water.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Their guides are auctioneer Thomas Plant and dealer Mark Stacey,
0:03:07 > 0:03:12who are making their way to meet them in this bright yellow Elva Courier.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17The colour sort of doesn't go with my pink trousers today.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Nothing goes with your pink trousers, Tom.- Just because you're jealous.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Not even your shirt and jacket. - Oh, you're so cruel!
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Shaping up to be a competitive jaunt, this one.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32With £400 each to spend, our two pairs will be taking a journey around south-east England.
0:03:32 > 0:03:37Starting in Otford, Kent, they'll meander around Kent and
0:03:37 > 0:03:40West Sussex before heading to auction in Twickenham, south-west London.
0:03:45 > 0:03:50Oh, wow! Here you go! Look at these two! Lovely, lovely!
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- Hello.- It's bright.- You haven't seen his trousers yet.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55THEY LAUGH
0:03:56 > 0:04:00Go on, Mark, get out. Yeah, I've got to get out as well. Well, hurry up!
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- TOM:- I can't get out now!- Pull yourself out there.- Hello.- I'm Mark.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Nice to meet you. But you see, nothing goes with those trousers.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- Thomas.- Nice to meet you. - How are you doing? Nice to meet you.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13On this trip, Ade will team up with Thomas,
0:04:13 > 0:04:15and Mark will go with Mark.
0:04:15 > 0:04:20Do you know what I'd really like to see? The big Fozzy in that car.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22That, I mean, that's made for you.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25I think it's decided, though, Mark, actually, we'll have the Jag.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Are you having the old man's car? - We're having that, yeah, yeah.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30THEY LAUGH
0:04:31 > 0:04:33- See you later.- See you later, bye-bye.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35- Buy some brown furniture.- Yes!- Bye!
0:04:35 > 0:04:37I hope it doesn't rain.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40- Right, let's go shopping. - Yes, let's do it.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46While the two Marks hit the road, Ade and Thomas's first shop is
0:04:46 > 0:04:49just around the corner at Otford Antiques.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52So, would this be your very first entry into an antiques shop?
0:04:52 > 0:04:55I think so. Yeah, yeah, this is... Do you know what?
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Already we're at an advantage against Mark,
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- cos that giant will never get into anything like that. - Yeah, absolutely.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03- He'd be knocking everything down. - Yeah, 100%.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05- Hello!- Pleased to meet you.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Be gentle with me, this is my first time in an antiques shop.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10I'm sure you're a natural.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- I think he is going to be a natural.- Pressure.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15THEY LAUGH
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Well, the proof is in the buying. Any tips, Thomas?
0:05:18 > 0:05:22- So, basically, there's a very simple rule...- Yes.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25You start left, and then... Honestly, it's that easy.
0:05:25 > 0:05:30You've just got to be practical, because if you scatter-gun, you'll never get anywhere.
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Sound advice.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34And Ade's already spotted something shiny -
0:05:34 > 0:05:37an intriguing interchangeable silver ring.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41So, do you want to look like a pro?
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Yeah, of course I want to look like a pro, come on.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46I will give you the magical Thomas Plant loop.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49- My eye glass, my jeweller's class.- Nice.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51I have it on a thing so I can wear it around my neck.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- Right, so, you are right handed? - Yes.
0:05:54 > 0:05:55So, put that towards your right eye.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- This way, yeah?- Yeah, or it doesn't really matter which way.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01All the way up, further up, and then you bring this bad boy all
0:06:01 > 0:06:04the way up, all the way up, further, further. It will happen.
0:06:04 > 0:06:10- Oh, yes, yes!- Then bring this really close. Closer. Closer, closer...
0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Oh, yeah. I've got it. I've got it. - And then it happens.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- We've got some proper bling here. - THEY LAUGH
0:06:18 > 0:06:22So, how does it work, Annie? Does it flip out and then you interchange the stones?
0:06:23 > 0:06:24So, it's...
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- That levers out.- Yes, I see that. - It clicks and it just comes...
0:06:29 > 0:06:33So, it's just a little latch That's really ingenious.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- And you take out the stone. - And then you can put any...
0:06:37 > 0:06:41- I think this is amazing. - The red ruby colour?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43The mauve colour for amethyst.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46The green for emerald and the blue for sapphire.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50- Do you think it might have been a reps sample once?- No.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54I think it's for people who want to change their outfit,
0:06:54 > 0:06:59- to change their clothes.- So, someone who likes to look different every day...
0:06:59 > 0:07:04- Can you imagine saying to your friends, "Oh, yeah, I've just got the ruby out today?"- Yes.
0:07:04 > 0:07:10- Matches your eyes. - I've got brown eyes, thank you. - THEY LAUGH
0:07:10 > 0:07:16- And you've got his little stones, these white pave set stones. - On the sides, yeah.
0:07:16 > 0:07:21- Yeah.- And, you know, on my sort of hairy little finger... - THEY LAUGH
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- Your hobbit hand.- Yeah, my hobbit hand, yeah, absolutely.
0:07:25 > 0:07:30- THEY IMPERSONATE:- My precious! - Schmiegel! Oh!
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Boys, are you buying, or what?
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- Let's talk about the price, because it is marked at 125.- That's correct.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41I was going to suggest...
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Do you want to do some negotiations,
0:07:43 > 0:07:46and I can sort of hold you back when you get a bit hard?
0:07:46 > 0:07:47OK. Um...
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Oh...
0:07:51 > 0:07:54I haven't done this before. Where do I go?
0:07:54 > 0:07:59I know I've thrown you at the deep end, so you ask Annie what her very best is...
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- Yes.- Don't mention her figure, though.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04So, Annie, what's your best?
0:08:04 > 0:08:05Oh, dear.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09100 is my very best.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13That's your very best? Sorry, I'm getting involved.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15I shouldn't do it.
0:08:15 > 0:08:16100.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20- It's just glass, though, isn't it? - Yes.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23How about...
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Come on, Ade, you can do it.
0:08:26 > 0:08:27Would you go lower?
0:08:32 > 0:08:36I can't do much on it because...
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Oh, you could do much! You could do so much!
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Look at this handsome man!
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Look at that.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46I said you were a natural, didn't I!
0:08:46 > 0:08:51- Seriously, I can't go any lower than 90.- 90?
0:08:51 > 0:08:57If you can go a little bit more, we can deal.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59All right, 85, and that's it.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01- So you wouldn't do 83? - Oh, dear.
0:09:01 > 0:09:0284.
0:09:05 > 0:09:0683.50.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08- What?!- All right.
0:09:08 > 0:09:13- I love this.- Yes?- Yes, OK.- Yes!
0:09:13 > 0:09:18No, no, no, no, let's have a proper hug.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22A top bit of negotiating there from antiques rooky, Ade,
0:09:22 > 0:09:27has secured the first purchase of this road trip, so well done, chaps.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Mark and Mark, meanwhile, are on the road
0:09:30 > 0:09:32and making their way to Brasted.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36What first got you into swimming?
0:09:36 > 0:09:38I learned because going back a long time,
0:09:38 > 0:09:41my father got thrown into a lake and nearly drowned.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Petrified of water and he really turned his hate into my love.
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Really?
0:09:45 > 0:09:48He used to take me to the pool on Sundays with my sisters
0:09:48 > 0:09:50and we jumped around and learned the water was fun.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Then, like you and most people, I went for swimming lessons.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I had swimming lessons and the person who taught me
0:09:55 > 0:09:56was called Mrs Hardcastle.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59She was the mother of a girl called Sarah Hardcastle who was
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- Olympic silver and bronze medallist in the freestyle.- Gosh, really!
0:10:02 > 0:10:03So, I had the right person.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06After ten swimming lessons, she said, you're quite good,
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- why don't you go and join the team? - Wow! What did you think?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11I was six years of age...
0:10:11 > 0:10:14I loved it because I enjoyed being in the water and I was competitive.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17At the age of 11, I was the fastest swimmer in the world for my age.
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Gosh!
0:10:18 > 0:10:23I pushed and I worked hard and then Duncan Goodhew came
0:10:23 > 0:10:26to my swimming club and did a Swimalong with Goodhew one day.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29I swam with him and saw his gold medal, this shiny gold medal,
0:10:29 > 0:10:30and saw him swim and said,
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- I want to be like him, I want to go to the Olympic Games.- Wow!
0:10:33 > 0:10:36My mum was the real driving force, the inspiration was Duncan Goodhew
0:10:36 > 0:10:40and obviously my father had a part, teaching me to enjoy the water.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Mr Stacey, it's down to you to provide some antiques inspiration.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Their first shop is Courtyard Antiques,
0:10:49 > 0:10:53where there's a rather unconventional welcome.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58We just thought you might be a little hungry on your journey
0:10:58 > 0:11:01and we have some Spanish tapas.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05I love it. Is this Manchego cheese?
0:11:05 > 0:11:09- I love Manchego cheese. Do you know Manchego cheese?- I don't.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10I would like to try some.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13What a lovely, generous gesture.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Wouldn't count on this in every shop, chaps!
0:11:18 > 0:11:24Well, Mark, here we are. Our first shop. What do you think?
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Well, I'm guessing I'm avoiding a nice piece of furniture
0:11:28 > 0:11:32- and looking at small bits and pieces?- That's a good idea.
0:11:32 > 0:11:37What does the London market like? I like Art Deco stuff.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Art Deco is quite good, depending on the name and the style of it
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- and the price we pay, of course. - Yes.
0:11:42 > 0:11:49People like sort of vintage, funky, almost one-off pieces.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52"That's a statement piece," or something.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Well, if it's a statement piece you're after...
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- What about something like this? - I say!
0:11:59 > 0:12:03- This is very attractive. - Very stylish. There's good detail.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06She's in a very typical Art Deco pose.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10With figures, the less clothes they wear, of course,
0:12:10 > 0:12:11the more popular they are.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14She's nicely modelled. Difficult to put a date on this one.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19It has got a little paper label there saying, Goldscheider.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22That's the maker, is it?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24That's the maker. They're a very famous maker of figurines.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- German?- German. In the Art Deco period.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31This one might be more 1950s but in the Art Deco style.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34I think there's just something about her.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37So do I. With a ticket price of £150,
0:12:37 > 0:12:40the Art Deco figurine is put straight back for now.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42What else do our boys like the look of?
0:12:42 > 0:12:44This looks quite interesting.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- What is it? - Can you see what's on there?
0:12:48 > 0:12:49What's this, do you reckon?
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Weasel or something? What is it? You can see a snake.
0:12:52 > 0:12:57- That must be a mongoose.- OK. - They're not frightened of snakes.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01They eat snakes. I think that's wonderful. What does the label say?
0:13:01 > 0:13:0419th-century white metal parasol handle,
0:13:04 > 0:13:08probably Anglo-Indian, circa 1880.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11Is that something, we're buying for sale,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14is that something someone would use and put a parasol on it or
0:13:14 > 0:13:16a walking stick on it, do you think they would use it?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18That's a very good question.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21I think there's a lot of people who collect novelty walking canes
0:13:21 > 0:13:25and handles. This is just such a whacky handle to have.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27I've never seen one like it.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29We could try to get someone like Rory McIlroy
0:13:29 > 0:13:31to put it on the end of one of his clubs.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34There we are, you see, I'm sure he's a good friend of yours.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37There's nothing wrong with giving him the date of the auction!
0:13:37 > 0:13:40But I think that, photographed properly on the internet,
0:13:40 > 0:13:43would attract interest throughout the world, actually.
0:13:43 > 0:13:48Ticket price is £155. Is there a deal to be done with Hugh?
0:13:50 > 0:13:55- We'd love to try and get it down a bit if you can.- A lot!
0:13:55 > 0:14:00Well, I'm afraid the best I can do on it for you would be 130.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02- 130?- Yes.
0:14:02 > 0:14:03Gosh!
0:14:03 > 0:14:06It's getting close to where I wanted to be really.
0:14:06 > 0:14:12- Is that even before I say nice things about you?- Yes, probably!
0:14:12 > 0:14:16- If you make me grow a few inches, I'll feel better!- Or I'll shrink!
0:14:16 > 0:14:18- Yes, that's better!- 120 now!
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Or maybe offer some swimming lessons or something!
0:14:23 > 0:14:28- I could do with some swimming lessons.- Doggy paddle, yeah?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30I just think it's lovely.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37- We couldn't get it down to 120? - No, but I'll tell you what.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40I do know this dealer. Another fiver off.
0:14:40 > 0:14:41- 125?- Yes.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43I think that's a deal for you.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- Thomas will absolutely love it. - Does he?
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- Thanks.- Thank you very much. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52I much preferred you being down there, you know!
0:14:53 > 0:14:55So, that's their first item bought
0:14:55 > 0:14:58and it looks like the Marks are on a roll.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02I wanted to show you something here that I found earlier.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08I know it's only a vase but it's a big piece.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10It's quite a big lump, isn't it?
0:15:10 > 0:15:11It is but I like the colour.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15It's very simplistic, the style, isn't it?
0:15:15 > 0:15:19This is not old, Mark. What is it priced at? £55.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23I think if it's something you like, you ought to have a word with him.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25Right, boys, time to do a deal.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29We've gone from Mark's small piece to my large piece.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34- Which is quite appropriate, really! - Yes.- And it matches his shirt.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37But, I mean, it's modestly priced
0:15:37 > 0:15:41but, of course, not quite modestly enough for us.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44I can't really do much off, I'm afraid. I'm sorry.
0:15:44 > 0:15:51- And you have set your heart on it? - I know, we put it on £25.- Yes.
0:15:52 > 0:15:53Hugh's not laughing, Mark.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56When you say there's nothing, there's nothing?
0:15:56 > 0:16:00- Or there's a tiny amount? - It's...a fiver, really.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06I like it, I like the colour. I think it's a nice piece.
0:16:06 > 0:16:11- I think we should take it.- Well, I think you should shake hands.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Thank you very much indeed.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17- Well, we were doing so well. - Yes, we were, weren't we?
0:16:17 > 0:16:18Two down.
0:16:18 > 0:16:24I think we've earned a little bit of light refreshment. Come on.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28He's not kidding either. Hey, save some for me, chaps!
0:16:30 > 0:16:31Mark, time to refuel.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Do you think the other team are getting lunch made for them?
0:16:34 > 0:16:37Not like this. I've ever had lunch made before.
0:16:37 > 0:16:38It's wonderful, isn't it?
0:16:38 > 0:16:39And we've got two items.
0:16:41 > 0:16:46Ade and Thomas are back on the road, making their way to East Grinstead.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48I used to live there.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51So, Ade, tell me about basketball.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53When did you start playing?
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Oh, I'm going to start feeling old now.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02I started playing wheelchair basketball when I was 12.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04I was spotted by some physiotherapists
0:17:04 > 0:17:08who were based in East London and I was being raced
0:17:08 > 0:17:12through the streets by my mates in a Tesco's shopping trolley,
0:17:12 > 0:17:15seemingly because I couldn't keep up with them
0:17:15 > 0:17:19when I was walking on my callipers and we thought the best way for me
0:17:19 > 0:17:22to get from A to B was to jump in a shopping trolley
0:17:22 > 0:17:24and they spotted me.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27They pulled up in this Sunshine Variety bus and they said,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29how would you like to play wheelchair basketball?
0:17:29 > 0:17:34I looked at him and said what? What is that all about?!
0:17:34 > 0:17:36I had never heard of it before and they took me
0:17:36 > 0:17:38to a place called Stoke Mandeville.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40- Yeah, we've all heard of Stoke Mandeville.- Exactly.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42I saw the junior games,
0:17:42 > 0:17:45I saw some guys from the Great Britain Wheelchair Basketball Team.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47They had the biggest muscles in the world I'd ever seen
0:17:47 > 0:17:50and they were in these cool wheelchairs and I thought,
0:17:50 > 0:17:52yeah, that is the sport for me.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Are you still a player?
0:17:54 > 0:17:56In what sense?
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Basketball!
0:17:58 > 0:18:01With a car like this, we're both players, bruv!
0:18:01 > 0:18:03We're both in the game!
0:18:06 > 0:18:10East Grinstead is renowned for the work of an inspirational doctor.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14His ground-breaking techniques in plastic surgery at the town's
0:18:14 > 0:18:18Queen Victoria Hospital helped transform the lives of thousands
0:18:18 > 0:18:22of Allied Air Force personnel during the Second World War.
0:18:22 > 0:18:28Ade and Thomas have come to meet local expert Bob Marchant.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Could you tell us about the Queen Victoria Hospital
0:18:30 > 0:18:32and its role during the war?
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Yeah, the Queen Victoria Hospital was set up by the
0:18:35 > 0:18:36Emergency Medical Service.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39It was envisioned that there was going to be quite
0:18:39 > 0:18:42a lot of aerial injuries coming from the Second World War,
0:18:42 > 0:18:45so the Emergency Medical Service set up these
0:18:45 > 0:18:48units around the country and East Grinstead was one.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51It was designated to look after the Air Force casualties.
0:18:51 > 0:18:56What sort of types of injuries did they have to deal with?
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Mainly they were head and neck flash burns, if you like, in the hands.
0:19:00 > 0:19:04Was there a particular doctor who arrived on the scene to give us
0:19:04 > 0:19:06the specialist knowledge?
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Yeah, this is where Archibald McIndoe came in, because
0:19:09 > 0:19:13he was a civilian consultant to the Air Force for plastic surgery.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15So they drafted him in to look after the unit
0:19:15 > 0:19:18and it would be all RAF casualties.
0:19:18 > 0:19:22As war continued, limited resources meant that the focus
0:19:22 > 0:19:26was on saving lives, rather than rehabilitation.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29The future was very bleak for young airmen returning
0:19:29 > 0:19:31with these types of injuries.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35But McIndoe felt strongly about addressing these difficult issues.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39They were returning with really bad facial injuries,
0:19:39 > 0:19:42burn injuries with their flesh burnt away.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Bad hands as well, because they weren't wearing
0:19:44 > 0:19:47their gloves properly.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50So the main part of their body was the face and hands.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53McIndoe could see that these were going to be the first areas
0:19:53 > 0:19:57the general public, if you like, would see.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01So there was a real need to reconstruct those areas quickly.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Would you describe him as bit of a maverick?
0:20:03 > 0:20:07Oh, yes, he was, yeah. He wanted to do things his way, obviously.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10You know, he had great ideas.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12But the other thing, he had the vision as well.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15It wasn't only the burns and the injuries
0:20:15 > 0:20:17that you've got to treat these chaps for,
0:20:17 > 0:20:19you've got to treat psychologically as well.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21I noticed a little clipping that said,
0:20:21 > 0:20:25"East Grinstead, the town which didn't stare."
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Yeah, that's right, yeah.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31He had all these young chaps and surgery was taking
0:20:31 > 0:20:34quite a length of time in-between operations.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37So he got them out into the local community.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40McIndoe went out to the local community and said,
0:20:40 > 0:20:43"I'm going to send these chaps out.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45"They got their injuries through fighting for you,
0:20:45 > 0:20:47"if you like, unfortunately.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49"Please accept them in the town.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51"Please accept them as they are and don't stare at them."
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- Really forward-thinking, isn't it? - Forward-thinking.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58And this was another way that McIndoe brought the local
0:20:58 > 0:21:01community in, if you like, and looked at their future.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05So he didn't only repair their injuries,
0:21:05 > 0:21:07he was repairing their minds as well.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10It was during this time that McIndoe chanced upon
0:21:10 > 0:21:14an unusual discovery that was to change the world of medicine.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18McIndoe found that the airmen that were bailing out
0:21:18 > 0:21:21and landed on the sea, their burns were a little bit different
0:21:21 > 0:21:23than if you landed on land.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27So he devised a saltwater treatment because he said it was
0:21:27 > 0:21:30the sudden immersion of saltwater that did this treatment.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33He then also got this technique into the other RAF hospitals
0:21:33 > 0:21:35that he had control over.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38So even the ones that couldn't come to East Grinstead,
0:21:38 > 0:21:43they were getting the same sort of treatment as he was developing.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46There was very little precedent for the work
0:21:46 > 0:21:47that McIndoe was attempting,
0:21:47 > 0:21:51much of it being by trial and error.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Do you think he and all his patients had a sense of how
0:21:55 > 0:21:57ground-breaking what they were doing was?
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- Oh, yeah, I think they did. - It must have been terribly exciting.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04They could see that nothing else was being done like this.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06They were only 18, 19 or 20.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08They said he really didn't know what he was doing.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11"He is just practising on us. We're just a load of guinea pigs."
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Wow.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17It was this true British grit in the face of adversity that
0:22:17 > 0:22:19led to the formation of the now legendary
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Guinea Pig Club.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22So what was the Guinea Pig Club?
0:22:22 > 0:22:27The Guinea Pig Club was formed in 1941 as a drinking club, really.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29They could see...
0:22:29 > 0:22:31- A good British tradition. - A good British tradition.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34They all could see that this was going to be a long transition to
0:22:34 > 0:22:36get back into society as well.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39So the formed this group of themselves.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42The extraordinary thing about these pictures, when you
0:22:42 > 0:22:45look at all of these faces, most of these chaps would have probably
0:22:45 > 0:22:48thought that when they sustained those injuries that that was it.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50- Yeah.- That was it.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53They were never going to have normal lives again.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- And McIndoe changed that. - He changed it all.
0:22:56 > 0:23:01It was really the first patient self-support group, really.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04It was formed by the patients for the patients.
0:23:04 > 0:23:09The fascinating thing about this is, you know, war is so negative
0:23:09 > 0:23:12and the damage it does to societies, but from it
0:23:12 > 0:23:15comes people like McIndoe and then
0:23:15 > 0:23:20Ludwig Guttmann did the same thing for paraplegics at Stoke Mandeville.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22There is so much positivity.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25It is happening now with people coming out of Afghanistan.
0:23:25 > 0:23:30They say surgery develops through war, unfortunately,
0:23:30 > 0:23:32and the techniques through war.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36What we are seeing coming back now into this country from Afghanistan
0:23:36 > 0:23:40is changing the whole aspect of accident and emergency work.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42But McIndoe had the vision.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45He'd got to look at these chaps psychologically.
0:23:45 > 0:23:50In 1947 Sir Archibald McIndoe was knighted for his work.
0:23:50 > 0:23:56Sadly, he passed away in 1960 aged just 59.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00McIndoe's incredible legacy lives on, not only through the Guinea Pig Club,
0:24:00 > 0:24:03whose existing members still meet today, but also in the type
0:24:03 > 0:24:06of life-changing surgery that he helped to create.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11And on that uplifting note,
0:24:11 > 0:24:15we say toodle-pip to the first day of the trip.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Nighty-night, guys.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24The next morning our celebrities are back on the road
0:24:24 > 0:24:27and preparing for the shopping day ahead.
0:24:27 > 0:24:28What fun.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32# Ha...
0:24:32 > 0:24:33# Hallelujah.. #
0:24:33 > 0:24:35# Haaaa... #
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Buy me, buy me, buy me! Have some of that!
0:24:38 > 0:24:40THEY LAUGH
0:24:40 > 0:24:41Yeah!
0:24:41 > 0:24:45And it looks like our experts are raring to go, too.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47I am thoroughly looking forward to today.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49I'm up, I'm ready, I'm in the yellow banana.
0:24:51 > 0:24:52I'm clashing with the colours.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55- I love this car.- Do you?
0:24:55 > 0:24:58- I love this car. It's a proper car. - Well, I love...
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Well, that's because you're, sort of, old, isn't it?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Right, pull yourself together, you two,
0:25:03 > 0:25:06your sporting heroes are waiting.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09You'd find it difficult to clash with that car,
0:25:09 > 0:25:11but you've done it.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Thomas, that's what I'm talking about.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15THEY LAUGH
0:25:15 > 0:25:18- Mark, how are you?- I'm good.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19Nice to see you.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- How's it going, Ade? - Winning team, come on, come on!
0:25:22 > 0:25:27- Dressed to kill.- Absolutely.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30So far the Marks have bought two lots, the 19th parasol handle,
0:25:30 > 0:25:32and the contemporary Chinese vase.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35They have £225 left to spend.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38See you later, bye-bye.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43Ade and Thomas, meanwhile, have bought just one lot so far,
0:25:43 > 0:25:45the silver interchangeable ring,
0:25:45 > 0:25:49which means they still have a massive £316.50 to play with.
0:25:51 > 0:25:52For their first shop of the day,
0:25:52 > 0:25:57Ade and Thomas are making their way to Chart Sutton, in Kent.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59What do you think of my haggling skills?
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Do you think I went in too hard on the 50 pence?
0:26:01 > 0:26:04No, I don't think so. I thought that was brilliant. I loved it
0:26:04 > 0:26:07because you got that little bit off and that little bit might save us.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09- Let's just go hard.- Go hard!
0:26:09 > 0:26:13- Go hard or go home. - That's it. That is the phrase.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15That is such the phrase.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20We've got tactics here.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23What's this shop like?
0:26:23 > 0:26:24Is it...
0:26:24 > 0:26:29The fellas' first shop of the day is Chart Sutton Antiques Centre.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31- What have you done? - I've broken the door.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- What are you doing? - No, no, no, that's it.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36You free, you're free, you're free.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Thank goodness for that as there's buying to be done.
0:26:39 > 0:26:44With 25 dealers under one roof, this space is bursting with potential.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Oh, look, look!
0:26:46 > 0:26:48What have you seen? What have you seen?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50- I've seen Mark.- You've seen Mark.
0:26:50 > 0:26:51Mark with a moustache.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53He would look like that, wouldn't he?
0:26:53 > 0:26:55That's what she would look like.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Time to get serious, chaps.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01A photograph album. It's what they did back in the day.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03I love that. That's so cool.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06- Open it up and have a look.- It's so heavy, as well.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09- It's so heavy as well.- It is heavy. Leather-bound.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11- Beautifully gilded.- Look at that.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14Hand-painted and photographs in there.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- That's amazing. - You like that, do you?
0:27:16 > 0:27:20- It is pretty cool.- It is cool, isn't it? It is lovely.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Look at her on the bicycle. That is a lovely shot, isn't it?
0:27:22 > 0:27:25It is. It's got spokey dokeys.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28Victorian. So you're thinking photography,
0:27:28 > 0:27:30a relatively recent invention from about 1840.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- Staged... They all look quite serious.- Very serious!
0:27:35 > 0:27:37We've progressed from this to selfie sticks.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40Selfie... Yeah, absolutely.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43- What do you think of this then? - I quite like it.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47- I like the way you reacted to it. - I like it.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50- I like that. It's a good thing. - How much is it?- £65.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54- OK.- You know what you're like.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- You've been there. - Shall we keep hold of that?
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Let's keep hold of that.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00So that's one potential buy.
0:28:00 > 0:28:03Now, what about a WMF vase?
0:28:03 > 0:28:05That's quite a nice vase, isn't it?
0:28:05 > 0:28:07- What do you think of that? - Yeah, it looks shiny.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09It is shiny, isn't it?
0:28:09 > 0:28:13- I've got the top hat on again.- You love that.- Like the Artful Dodger.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16- Beautiful.- Feel the weight of that.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19- Oh, wow, that is...- Turn it over.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21- It's nice.- This... how old do you think it is?
0:28:23 > 0:28:26- It doesn't look that old. - It doesn't, does it?
0:28:26 > 0:28:27It looks '70s, maybe.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31- '70s? Maybe even- '80s. Do you like that? Even- '80s? Yeah.
0:28:31 > 0:28:36What would you say if I told you that this was 1910?
0:28:38 > 0:28:391910?!
0:28:39 > 0:28:42- Shut the front door. - Yeah! Shut the front door.
0:28:42 > 0:28:43Close it tight.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46It is quite reasonable as well. 58 quid.
0:28:46 > 0:28:49- And we can do a bit more on that. - I reckon we could, yeah.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52Time to have a word with Carol.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57- Now, we've got ourselves an album. - Right.- An old album.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01- So have a look at that. - And the question is...
0:29:01 > 0:29:03What's your best?
0:29:03 > 0:29:06- How did I guess? - We've also got this vase here.
0:29:06 > 0:29:10- Lovely Victorian...- What's your best, or what's your worst?
0:29:10 > 0:29:13..photo album. I can do 58.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16I think 58 is a bit steep.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19- Still going to be too much for you, is it?- BOTH: Yeah.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Well, usual thing, it's not mine.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23So what we'll need to do is ring the dealer
0:29:23 > 0:29:25and see what we can do for you. OK?
0:29:25 > 0:29:28- OK.- And something else as well?
0:29:28 > 0:29:32Obviously, I'm just carrying this for fun.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34He needs the exercise.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36Price. 58.
0:29:36 > 0:29:41Again, without a phone call it's going to be 52.
0:29:41 > 0:29:43- Oh, we need to make some calls. - Make some calls.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45So it sounds like phone calls are in order.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48As luck would have it, both items come from the same dealer.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51The combined price is £110.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55Ade, you're up!
0:29:55 > 0:29:58How about 90?
0:29:58 > 0:30:00I mean, we will take them both off your hands
0:30:00 > 0:30:03and they'll go to a great home.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05And we love them.
0:30:05 > 0:30:09People will know that you are a wonderful person.
0:30:09 > 0:30:10We have...
0:30:10 > 0:30:13We've got to beat the other team. We've got to beat Mark Foster.
0:30:13 > 0:30:17He's a swimmer. You know, don't worry about swimmers. Come on.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21Oh, Fiona, you're a superstar!
0:30:21 > 0:30:2390.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26Yes?
0:30:26 > 0:30:29- Fiona, thank you very much. - Thank you. Thank you so much.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34Ade's really getting the hang of things.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36A great deal done for the album and the WMF vase.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39Taking a break from shopping, the two Marks
0:30:39 > 0:30:41have made their way to Rochester.
0:30:41 > 0:30:45They've come to the Huguenot Museum to learn about the first mass
0:30:45 > 0:30:47influx of refugees into Britain
0:30:47 > 0:30:52and the lasting effect they've had on British society.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56In 1685, Louis XIV ended religious freedom in France,
0:30:56 > 0:31:00ruling that you must be Catholic to live there.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03This meant that French Protestants, also known as Huguenots,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06were forced to make a difficult decision.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09Here to explain more is museum director Hannah Kay.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12So what did they do?
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Well, the choices were actually very stark.
0:31:14 > 0:31:18You either converted and became a Catholic, or you were persecuted.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22- So they basically fled here? - Well, it's not quite that simple.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24It was actually, at times, illegal to leave France
0:31:24 > 0:31:27if you were a Huguenot.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Many did make the illegal escape to England,
0:31:29 > 0:31:32but many did also convert.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35There were around half a million Huguenots
0:31:35 > 0:31:37living in France at the time.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Many took the risk of hiding their faith from the authorities.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44This Bible has a really unique story.
0:31:44 > 0:31:46- It's actually from the late 1500s.- Wow.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50It's a family Bible and it belonged to the Fasquest family.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53In the back and front of the Bible are lists of the births, marriages
0:31:53 > 0:31:55and deaths of the family.
0:31:55 > 0:31:56It was very, very precious.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59I don't know if you can see around the edges of this book?
0:31:59 > 0:32:01- Yes, I can.- Those are watermarks.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04And that's because it was baked inside a loaf of bread to hide
0:32:04 > 0:32:06- it from the government soldiers. - Gosh.- Wow.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09It was so precious to the family that they wanted
0:32:09 > 0:32:11to hide it and keep it safe.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15Some Huguenots did make the difficult decision to escape.
0:32:15 > 0:32:20In the 1680s about 180,000 made their break for freedom,
0:32:20 > 0:32:2350,000 of whom ended up in Britain.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26When the Huguenots settled in this country,
0:32:26 > 0:32:30they created lots of organisations to help them establish a community.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34They had a strong sense of family and of helping each other.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36They created... They built French churches,
0:32:36 > 0:32:39and a French school in Westminster.
0:32:39 > 0:32:43The museum has many objects that relate to those early organisations.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46We have these beautiful battered pewter tankards that were
0:32:46 > 0:32:49used by the early inmates of the French Hospital,
0:32:49 > 0:32:52which was established to help Huguenot refugees
0:32:52 > 0:32:54and the early descendants.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57If you come round, I can show you some more of our collections
0:32:57 > 0:33:01which help to illustrate the array of crafts and trades and professions
0:33:01 > 0:33:04and skills that the Huguenots brought with them to this country.
0:33:04 > 0:33:08They were wood-turners, silk-weavers, glass-makers,
0:33:08 > 0:33:10apothecaries, doctors...
0:33:10 > 0:33:13- Silversmith, of course. - And, of course, Silversmiths.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15Silver and goldsmithing was one of the trades that the
0:33:15 > 0:33:17absolutely excelled in.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21This object is a beautifully worked gold chatelaine.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23It's from the early 1700s.
0:33:23 > 0:33:27- It was made by a goldsmith called Francis Harache.- Wonderful.
0:33:27 > 0:33:28He was a very important goldsmith.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33His family came over in the 1680s to escape persecution.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35It's a really good example of how
0:33:35 > 0:33:38French design influenced British design.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40This influx of French Huguenots,
0:33:40 > 0:33:45they brought with them French style for furniture, textiles
0:33:45 > 0:33:47and luxury goods, such as this.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50When the Huguenots fled to Britain, around half of them
0:33:50 > 0:33:54settled in London, which was a huge influx in comparison
0:33:54 > 0:33:58to the population levels in London at that time.
0:33:58 > 0:34:02It is estimated by academics that if you take those population figures,
0:34:02 > 0:34:04there would probably be about
0:34:04 > 0:34:06one in six people in Britain today
0:34:06 > 0:34:08- who has Huguenot blood in their veins.- Really?
0:34:08 > 0:34:10- As many as that?- Yeah.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13And the Huguenots were Britain's first refugees.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16They brought the word refugee into the English language with them.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18- Did they?- Yep.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22Huguenots have made a huge contribution to British
0:34:22 > 0:34:24society over the centuries and, according to the museum,
0:34:24 > 0:34:28descendants include the writer Daphne du Maurier,
0:34:28 > 0:34:31Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards
0:34:31 > 0:34:33and, perhaps most famous of all,
0:34:33 > 0:34:36actor Laurence Olivier.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41Back on the road, Ade and Thomas have made their way to Teynham and
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Wildwinds Antiques and Collectables.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49GONG
0:34:49 > 0:34:52Let the games begin!
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Everything's gone off. All the clocks.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57What's going on?
0:34:57 > 0:35:00Housing 12 traders in three rooms,
0:35:00 > 0:35:04they should easily find something smashing to take to auction.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06So far we have bought quite small things.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08Yeah, and we need something that says, "Ta-da!"
0:35:08 > 0:35:10Yep, ta-da!
0:35:10 > 0:35:12What about this model of our illustrious HMS Victory?
0:35:12 > 0:35:16Nelson's flagship. What a statement.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18- I like it.- Yeah? I don't think it's that old.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20- It's made out of ply, look.- Yes.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23You see it's not that old but it would have taken somebody
0:35:23 > 0:35:25some time to make it.
0:35:25 > 0:35:30- Do you think Victory will give us victory?- Victory.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33- We need to work on that.- Yeah.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37- 150.- (150. We've got about a couple of hundred quid, haven't we?)
0:35:37 > 0:35:40What would you take that down to? What do you reckon?
0:35:40 > 0:35:44(Well, we'll try and get it down to two figures.)
0:35:44 > 0:35:46If you want that much off,
0:35:46 > 0:35:50you'd better get on the blower and talk to the owner direct.
0:35:53 > 0:35:5590 quid.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57You wouldn't do 80?
0:36:00 > 0:36:02What about 83.50?
0:36:05 > 0:36:07Only because... Yes?
0:36:09 > 0:36:12What's that? As long as we make some money for you, 83.50.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- You're happy with that? Boom!- Boom!
0:36:15 > 0:36:17THEY LAUGH
0:36:17 > 0:36:19Right, you've got a sale. Thanks a lot.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22Cheers, bye.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24- Dude.- We've done that.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26No, fist pump. There you go.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30- What's this?! What's this?! - Get all complicated!
0:36:30 > 0:36:33- It's getting all complicated. - 83.50.- £83 and 50 pence.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36Just like you did! Just like you did!
0:36:36 > 0:36:39You're liking the 50 pence! Come on.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43The boys have still got £226.50 in their pockets
0:36:43 > 0:36:48and it looks like some colourful glassware has caught their eye.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51- What we could do is build up a lot.- A collection.- A collection.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54We could build up a lot of all of these wonderful Whitefriars.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57London made...
0:36:57 > 0:37:00- What, and sell them altogether? - Sell them as a lot.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02We could do something like that.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04Like tangerine, willow pattern,
0:37:04 > 0:37:06amethyst, frosted, dwarf candlesticks.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08We could do that or get tumblers or we could...
0:37:08 > 0:37:11- You know, we got enough money here...- Yeah.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13..to really play around with.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16- That's Whitefriars again, this one here.- That's nice.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18- That's cool, isn't it? - It's really clean, isn't it?
0:37:18 > 0:37:23- It's clean, isn't it? - It would look nice on a table.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- Can't we get a couple of these? - Yeah, we've got more money, you see.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- We got so much money. - Yeah, well, let's do that.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32Let's get as many of these as we can with the clear.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35- But there is also that vase there.- Right, OK, you like the blue?
0:37:35 > 0:37:38That is by James Powell and Sons and that's...
0:37:38 > 0:37:41Look at his knowledge.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43So much knowledge from that brain!
0:37:43 > 0:37:47Stop! So this is by somebody called James Powell and Sons.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50- James Powell and Sons became Whitefriars.- Ah!
0:37:50 > 0:37:54- So they're the same...? - This is earlier.- Yes.- This is 1930s.
0:37:54 > 0:37:58- They call it optic moulded.- It's beautiful.- It's cool, isn't it?
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Yeah. Right, will it sell?
0:38:00 > 0:38:03It sells but you've got to buy it at the right price.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07They've decided to try and go for a job lot,
0:38:07 > 0:38:09for the colourful Whitefriars candlesticks,
0:38:09 > 0:38:13the James Powell blue glass vase and the clear Whitefriars vase.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Dealer Richard's ready to negotiate.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19So what's the damage as it stands, Thomas?
0:38:19 > 0:38:21Let me see the figure. Oh!
0:38:21 > 0:38:25Oh! (204!)
0:38:26 > 0:38:29Now, we've got not very much money left.
0:38:30 > 0:38:34Why are you making that face for?!
0:38:34 > 0:38:38- Come on, give us a figure.- 140.
0:38:38 > 0:38:42- What do you reckon?- Ah, 140.
0:38:42 > 0:38:46- Is that the best price? - I can't go any less than that.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49- I mean it's a good...- Price. - Good, sort of...
0:38:49 > 0:38:52- That would be the most expensive thing we've got.- Two lots, though.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55It is.
0:38:55 > 0:38:56Come on, then. Let's do it.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59Let's not dither. Hold on, hold on do that again.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01Handshake.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02DONG!
0:39:02 > 0:39:05- That's it.- It's on.- You're a star.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Come on, I need a handshake. Don't leave me hanging.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09- Don't leave me hanging. - Again, again! Ready!- Wait.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12DONG!
0:39:12 > 0:39:14- I love it.- Right, that's it.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15Yes, let's get the dosh out.
0:39:17 > 0:39:22That's a total spend of £223.50,
0:39:22 > 0:39:24bagging the HMS Victory model,
0:39:24 > 0:39:28the glassware that they intend to split into two separate lots,
0:39:28 > 0:39:30one for the vases and one for the candlesticks.
0:39:33 > 0:39:37Meanwhile, the two Marks are making their way to Faversham
0:39:37 > 0:39:40and their final shop, Squires Antiques,
0:39:40 > 0:39:44to see what Conon and his mother Ann have on offer.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49There's a tiny little cigarette lighter there, which is a bit rare.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52- The smallest cigarette lighter in the world.- Oh, my gosh.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55That is tiny, isn't it?
0:39:55 > 0:39:57That's most unusual.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00I don't know why on Earth you'd have one that small.
0:40:00 > 0:40:05I guess back then people didn't have big pockets on their handbags
0:40:05 > 0:40:08- to put these things in. - Possibly not, no.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11- It would be a bit of a faff to light your cigarette with it.- Very true.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13You'd have to be lighting it out of the wind.
0:40:13 > 0:40:17With a ticket price of £65, what kind of a deal can Conon do?
0:40:20 > 0:40:23So on the lighter, the best price would be?
0:40:23 > 0:40:25I really need 55 for it.
0:40:25 > 0:40:29But I would do a little bit better on that.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31I can lose another fiver.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34Oh, gosh. Well, I think... I will tell you what I'm going to do, Mark.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36- I think we should go with the lighter.- Mm-hm.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39And you really couldn't do that for 50?
0:40:39 > 0:40:41- He said 50.- Oh, you said 50?
0:40:41 > 0:40:44- You can have that 50, yeah. - Oh, I meant 45.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48- You really can't do that for 45? - Yeah.- You can?- Yeah.
0:40:48 > 0:40:53- Thank you.- Thanks, Conon.- You're welcome.- Thanks very much indeed.
0:40:53 > 0:40:58With that deal done they still have £180 in their pocket.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02And with yesterday's Art Deco lady still playing on their minds,
0:41:02 > 0:41:06they've called Hugh to see if he'll go lower than the £150 ticket price.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11The very, very, very best will be 95.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14Very, very, very best with 95.
0:41:14 > 0:41:15Yeah.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18Are you sure you couldn't do it for 90, Hugh?
0:41:18 > 0:41:19No, sorry.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21No, 95.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23- I think we would be happy. - I think we'll take it, yeah.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25- We'd like to take it, if we can.- Thanks very much, Hugh.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28- Thanks very much indeed. - All right, then.- Bye.
0:41:28 > 0:41:29- Bye.- Bye.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33- That's a result. - That has completely shocked me.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35- 95.- 95 quid.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39- That is awesome.- That's it, we're done, Mark. It's over.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41- You see profit, don't you? - I hope so.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44- I've not seen them smile so much all week.- It's trapped wind.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49Hey, and on that lovely thought, they're all bought up.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52Time for a bit of show and tell.
0:41:55 > 0:41:59- So have you had an amazing time? - Amazing.- I've had a brilliant time.
0:41:59 > 0:42:00I've enjoyed it. I've loved it.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04I'm going to love it even more when I see the pure chintz that you have.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Is that your new word?
0:42:06 > 0:42:08BOTH: Chintz.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11Right, enough hilarity. On with the serious business.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13Da-da-da-da!
0:42:13 > 0:42:15Behold! Behold!
0:42:15 > 0:42:18- I love the box. What's the box? Would you show us?- I'd love to.
0:42:18 > 0:42:23An interchangeable ring with all those stones.
0:42:23 > 0:42:24Look at that!
0:42:24 > 0:42:26- Look at that!- That's fabulous.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28I can see it sparkling in your eyes, guys.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31Did you find that in Wendy house or something?
0:42:31 > 0:42:33- No, that's actually very nice. - It is very, very nice.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35I'm trying to knock it, though.
0:42:35 > 0:42:37That was £83.50.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39£83 and 50 pence.
0:42:39 > 0:42:43- That could do very well.- It's a cool thing.- That could do 84.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45Cheeky!
0:42:45 > 0:42:48What about Victory? It will lead us to the promised land.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51I think it has already sunk, isn't it?
0:42:51 > 0:42:54No, no, with Nelson on there.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Now for the Marks to reveal their hoard.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Oh, what have we got?
0:42:59 > 0:43:01We've got three items.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03We can't see anything. I need a magnifying glass.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06Where's that glass that you've got?
0:43:06 > 0:43:09- It does look a little bit skewed here, doesn't it?- Bring the loupe.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12- Ade, have you been using that loupe?- Yeah, of course he has.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15Still cat see anything. Still can't see anything.
0:43:15 > 0:43:18Let's have a look. What have we got? It's just three things?!
0:43:18 > 0:43:22No, we have got one more thing but we had to do a little phone deal.
0:43:22 > 0:43:23Oh!
0:43:23 > 0:43:26- And it's being collected tomorrow. - It's being collected!- Yep.
0:43:26 > 0:43:28What is it?
0:43:28 > 0:43:29It's an Art Deco lady.
0:43:29 > 0:43:33- An Art Deco lady. - Can I have look at the cane handle?
0:43:33 > 0:43:35- Tell us about it. - This looks quite cool.
0:43:35 > 0:43:38This looks like a parasol or cane handle.
0:43:38 > 0:43:41- God, that looks nice quality.- It is lovely quality.
0:43:41 > 0:43:42That does look lovely.
0:43:42 > 0:43:45- That would have gone on your parasol.- Can I take it?
0:43:45 > 0:43:47Yeah, have a look, hold it.
0:43:47 > 0:43:49That looks like a nice thing.
0:43:49 > 0:43:52What about the tiny Art Deco lighter?
0:43:52 > 0:43:54That fell off my chair.
0:43:54 > 0:43:57That's it! It's off my chair. We need to put it back on.
0:43:57 > 0:44:00- I've been looking for that! - Actually, it is quite interesting.
0:44:00 > 0:44:04It's a Dunhill lighter. Anything Dunhill is quality.
0:44:04 > 0:44:08I think, you know, you've gone for three individual statements.
0:44:08 > 0:44:10This is Mark's purchase.
0:44:10 > 0:44:13- I like it. I like the way you just dumped that...- Do you like that?!
0:44:13 > 0:44:16He just threw you out there.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19You know when you're standing up there and about to do your relay
0:44:19 > 0:44:21and the other one is like, "You're on your own?!"
0:44:21 > 0:44:23"This is Mark's!"
0:44:23 > 0:44:26Can I just ask you? What have you been doing for two days?!
0:44:26 > 0:44:29We've been having fun, haven't we?
0:44:29 > 0:44:32To be fair, carrying that stuff around was difficult.
0:44:32 > 0:44:34Just eating paella, weren't you?
0:44:34 > 0:44:36Right, I'm feeling smug. Let's go.
0:44:36 > 0:44:38Champions! Whoo!
0:44:40 > 0:44:43So out of earshot, what did they really make
0:44:43 > 0:44:45of each other's offerings?
0:44:45 > 0:44:49- The biggest item I saw was the ship. - The Victory. I think not.
0:44:49 > 0:44:53- Do you see victory?- Not with that ship, no. Absolutely not.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55Are you worried?
0:44:55 > 0:44:59- That cane handle, that looks good. - It's a good thing.- Yeah.
0:44:59 > 0:45:03- But it's just a cane handle.- OK. - You have to do something with it.
0:45:03 > 0:45:05- It's not as good as our ring.- OK.
0:45:05 > 0:45:09Mark, little Mark, he was going for it. He was winding us up.
0:45:09 > 0:45:14Don't get intimidated. I promise you, we have got great items.
0:45:14 > 0:45:16- Confidence?- I feel confident.
0:45:16 > 0:45:19I wasn't sure before the reveal, but after seeing the reveal
0:45:19 > 0:45:22- I think, yes.- Great. Well, let battle commence.
0:45:25 > 0:45:28After starting in Otford, Kent,
0:45:28 > 0:45:32our two teams have travelled almost 200 miles and are now motoring
0:45:32 > 0:45:36towards Twickenham, in south-west London, for the big finale.
0:45:37 > 0:45:40When it comes to the moment when that auction starts,
0:45:40 > 0:45:43- are you going to get a little bit competitive?- Very competitive.
0:45:43 > 0:45:44Not even a little bit.
0:45:44 > 0:45:47I must admit, when we did the reveal, you started...
0:45:47 > 0:45:48your chest came out.
0:45:48 > 0:45:51I am like, "Ade has suddenly got..."
0:45:51 > 0:45:53It's like... I thought it was the
0:45:53 > 0:45:55- Olympic Games play-off final something.- I can't help it.
0:45:55 > 0:45:58I can't help it, Mark. It's terrible.
0:45:58 > 0:46:02I reckon when I watch this back I'm going to be cringing.
0:46:02 > 0:46:04- I'm going to be like, "Calm down, Ade."- Calm down, yep.
0:46:04 > 0:46:07Do you know what, though? Have you prepared a celebration.
0:46:07 > 0:46:09I've been thinking, when I win it's going to be
0:46:09 > 0:46:11the single punch.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14Come on! Come on!
0:46:14 > 0:46:16Are you going to do a Djokovic?
0:46:16 > 0:46:19Are you going to take a little bit of the floor and put it in your mouth and taste it?
0:46:19 > 0:46:22Yeah, I think so. I think I'll eat some antiques.
0:46:23 > 0:46:25Oh, dear. Please don't.
0:46:27 > 0:46:30- So I drove you... Oh, here they are. - I did offer.
0:46:30 > 0:46:31Hey, hey, hey!
0:46:31 > 0:46:33How's it going, winning team(?)
0:46:33 > 0:46:36- Let's do it. - Oh, get over yourselves.
0:46:36 > 0:46:39I'll give you little handshake.
0:46:39 > 0:46:42The battleground is High Road Auctions and David Holmes
0:46:42 > 0:46:44is the man with the gavel.
0:46:44 > 0:46:49So what does he make of our celebrities' lots?
0:46:49 > 0:46:51The interchangeable ring, it's a bit of fun.
0:46:51 > 0:46:54It's a silver ring with different gem coloured stones
0:46:54 > 0:46:58that you can interchange depending on the mood you're in.
0:46:58 > 0:47:00I think the nicest piece today will
0:47:00 > 0:47:02be the Dunhill lighter, for my money.
0:47:02 > 0:47:06You don't see many of these on the market at all. Good internet lot.
0:47:06 > 0:47:09It's got everything going for it.
0:47:09 > 0:47:12I think that could be the one to surprise today.
0:47:13 > 0:47:17Mark and Mark spent £315 on four auction lots.
0:47:18 > 0:47:23While Ade and Thomas almost blew the lot, spending
0:47:23 > 0:47:25£397 on an impressive six lots.
0:47:28 > 0:47:33Our teams are taking their seats in the sale room, which has
0:47:33 > 0:47:35buyers in the room and online.
0:47:38 > 0:47:41Ade and Thomas's first lot is up.
0:47:41 > 0:47:43It's the WMF vase.
0:47:43 > 0:47:45I'm feeling a bit nervous. My heart's beating.
0:47:45 > 0:47:48- Is it? Is it? Are you getting the adrenaline?- Yeah, I am.
0:47:48 > 0:47:51It's got a bid. Start it off at £20 for this lot.
0:47:51 > 0:47:53Thank you, sir. Take five again at the back.
0:47:53 > 0:47:56At 25, 30. 28, sir.
0:47:56 > 0:47:59£28. I'll take 30. I'll do the same for you.
0:47:59 > 0:48:02I have a gentleman's bid, standing in the middle of the room.
0:48:02 > 0:48:05- At £28.- Amazing price. - I'll take 30 for the lot.
0:48:05 > 0:48:08It's selling. 30 with the lady. Take two again, sir.
0:48:08 > 0:48:10At £30. The lady has bid.
0:48:10 > 0:48:12He is trying.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Was that a bid? Are you nodding to say yes?
0:48:14 > 0:48:16At £30, the lady has bid in the seating.
0:48:16 > 0:48:17I'll take two on the internet.
0:48:17 > 0:48:21The bid is in the room. No mistake, selling at £30 only.
0:48:21 > 0:48:23Oh, dear.
0:48:23 > 0:48:26- Don't worry, we've got... - You cut me so deep.
0:48:28 > 0:48:31Yep, a bit of a disappointing start there, but it's only the first lot.
0:48:31 > 0:48:35Onwards and upwards, eh?
0:48:35 > 0:48:38Next, the contemporary Chinese vase.
0:48:40 > 0:48:43£20 for the lot. Come along quickly.
0:48:43 > 0:48:45£10 for it. Cheap.
0:48:45 > 0:48:48- Come on. - I'll take 12 for the lot.
0:48:48 > 0:48:51That's all we've got, guys.
0:48:51 > 0:48:54I'll take 12 for the lot. A big decorative vase.
0:48:54 > 0:48:57I've got to sell it. At £10 only.
0:48:58 > 0:49:02Oh, dear. That didn't go down very well there, did it?
0:49:02 > 0:49:04How are you feeling, Mark?
0:49:07 > 0:49:11- Oh, you've got... - A tenner! A tenner!
0:49:11 > 0:49:13Mark, honestly.
0:49:13 > 0:49:16Well, at least Ade's enjoying himself.
0:49:16 > 0:49:19Obviously, this is a very knowledgeable lot
0:49:19 > 0:49:22and they knew that what you had up there was pure chintz.
0:49:26 > 0:49:28Now, now, Ade.
0:49:28 > 0:49:32Can the leather photo album, complete with pictures, fare any better?
0:49:34 > 0:49:37We've got to start this one at £20 on commission.
0:49:37 > 0:49:41- On commission.- 25. Is that a bid, sir? I've got 28.
0:49:41 > 0:49:43- I'll take £30 in the room.- Oh, yes.
0:49:43 > 0:49:45- £30, thank you. 32 behind.- Oh, yes.
0:49:45 > 0:49:48Was that a bid? 35. And 8. 38. 40, sir.
0:49:48 > 0:49:50Go on! One more, one more!

0:50:04 > 0:50:09£50, madam. £48. The gentleman has bid behind you.
0:50:09 > 0:50:12It's your last chance. I am selling it. Are we done at 48?
0:50:12 > 0:50:13Are you building, sir? No.
0:50:16 > 0:50:18- We didn't get...- Very good.
0:50:18 > 0:50:22After auction costs, that will certainly result in a small loss.
0:50:22 > 0:50:24Speaking of small. It's time for the Marks'
0:50:24 > 0:50:27teeny Dunhill lighter.
0:50:28 > 0:50:3265. Internet has got it. 75 bid.

0:50:35 > 0:50:38It is still cheap. 90 bid. Take 5, internet.
0:50:38 > 0:50:40I don't think we're there yet.
0:50:40 > 0:50:42- At 95 bid. 100 bid.- Oh!
0:50:42 > 0:50:44At £100, the bid with the internet.

0:50:48 > 0:50:49Come along. At £100.
0:50:49 > 0:50:51110, thank you. Give me 120, internet.
0:50:52 > 0:50:55I think we're done. I've have got to sell it.
0:50:55 > 0:50:56Was that a bid? Nope.
0:50:56 > 0:50:59At £110 with the internet.
0:51:00 > 0:51:02- Nice.- Really good.
0:51:02 > 0:51:04Respect. Respect.
0:51:06 > 0:51:07That's more like it.
0:51:07 > 0:51:11A whopping big profit there for the smallest lot.
0:51:12 > 0:51:17Can the colourful collection of Whitefriars candlesticks do the same?
0:51:17 > 0:51:20I'm going to start them at £45.
0:51:20 > 0:51:23I'll take 48, the lot.
0:51:23 > 0:51:2548, I beg your pardon. 50 bid.
0:51:25 > 0:51:295. Thank you, 55. I need 60, the lot.
0:51:29 > 0:51:31Are you bidding? At £55.
0:51:31 > 0:51:33The lady has bid right in front.
0:51:33 > 0:51:36- No!- I need 60 on the internet. We'll give the internet a chance.
0:51:36 > 0:51:39It's selling in the room. Are we done? At 55.
0:51:39 > 0:51:42We're having a nightmare, aren't we? We're having a nightmare.
0:51:42 > 0:51:45Absolute nightmare.
0:51:45 > 0:51:49They really are a tough crowd to please today.
0:51:49 > 0:51:52But least that lovely lady walks away with a bargain.
0:51:52 > 0:51:54Well, well done for buying something good.
0:51:56 > 0:51:59Let's see if Mark and Mark can increase their lead with
0:51:59 > 0:52:02their Art Deco figure.
0:52:02 > 0:52:05Give me £30. It's a very decorative items. £30 with the internet.

0:52:15 > 0:52:19I'll take 5 in the room. Are we done selling online?
0:52:19 > 0:52:21Last chance at 30. Internet buyer.
0:52:23 > 0:52:25- That's it.- It's nothing, is it?
0:52:25 > 0:52:27It's peanuts.
0:52:27 > 0:52:30Those online bidders are getting some great deals today.
0:52:30 > 0:52:33That loss closes the gap between the teams.
0:52:33 > 0:52:35Do you know what I love about this? It's the highs and lows.
0:52:35 > 0:52:39It's like sport. One minute you're up and the next minute you're down.
0:52:39 > 0:52:43Next up, it's the joint lot of the Whitefriars
0:52:43 > 0:52:45and James Powell vases.
0:52:46 > 0:52:49Bid me £20 for the two vases there.
0:52:49 > 0:52:51£20 with the internet. I'll take 5 in the room.

0:53:04 > 0:53:07The back of the room with the lady. £25 only.
0:53:08 > 0:53:11I'll take 30. I'm selling at 25.
0:53:11 > 0:53:14Oh, gosh. That's a bad loss.
0:53:15 > 0:53:19It's definitely not been a good day for the vases.
0:53:19 > 0:53:21We haven't finished.
0:53:21 > 0:53:23- We've still got...- Still all to play for.
0:53:23 > 0:53:25That's the attitude, Thomas.
0:53:25 > 0:53:29Can you and Ade win the battle with your model of HMS Victory?
0:53:31 > 0:53:34This has got £20 to get it started. Any good to you, sir? Thank you.
0:53:34 > 0:53:37- Take 5, internet.- 30. - 30, thank you.

0:53:50 > 0:53:5255, thank you.

0:56:14 > 0:56:17Do you know what I have learned though, actually?
0:56:17 > 0:56:21You can pick up proper bargain at auction because
0:56:21 > 0:56:23all of that stuff has gone for real cheap.
0:56:23 > 0:56:26And do you know what I think of auctions?
0:56:26 > 0:56:29It's all so chintz. Come on, let's go.
0:56:30 > 0:56:34I'm pleased to see you're all still smiling.
0:56:34 > 0:56:37But the big question is, which team has come out on top?
0:56:38 > 0:56:41Ade and Thomas started with £400.
0:56:41 > 0:56:47After paying auction costs, sadly they made a loss of £173.14.

0:56:59 > 0:57:05and they made a slightly smaller loss dropping £126.40 after auction costs.
0:57:05 > 0:57:09Meaning that these finish with £273.60
0:57:09 > 0:57:13and are crowned today's winners.
0:57:13 > 0:57:15You might be surprised at this but none of us

0:57:17 > 0:57:20- Really?- I know, shocking.- Really?
0:57:20 > 0:57:25Ade and Tom, you lost around £173.

0:57:28 > 0:57:31- How much did you lose?- Around 126.
0:57:31 > 0:57:34It was quite close, but we won!
0:57:35 > 0:57:39- Only by losing the least. - It doesn't matter. It's still a win.
