0:00:50 > 0:00:54Coming up, David keeps a close eye on the competition...
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Now, where is that Hawk?
0:00:56 > 0:00:58This telescope is not working.
0:00:58 > 0:00:59Try that way.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02..Caroline resorts to hypnosis...
0:01:02 > 0:01:04- Look into my eyes.- Eh? - Look into my eyes.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06..and David gets stitched up.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08I'm so not interested in sewing.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26Welcome, ladies and gents, to glorious County Durham,
0:01:26 > 0:01:28home of today's booty buying bonanza,
0:01:28 > 0:01:32as two prize thoroughbreds of the antiques world go head-to-head
0:01:32 > 0:01:34in a racecourse steeplechase.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37There'll be highs and lows, sprints and hurdles,
0:01:37 > 0:01:42as today's experts race to be the first over the finish line.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46And champing at the bit to get going is a true saleroom stallion.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49He's been buying and selling antiques
0:01:49 > 0:01:51since he was just a colt, and he's on home turf here
0:01:51 > 0:01:52in the north-east,
0:01:52 > 0:01:55so he's determined to walk away with the trophy.
0:01:58 > 0:01:59Two purchases, quickfire.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01That's the way to do it.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04But, his opponent today is also from the north.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07She's the Haggler from Hull, but you'll recognise her for her
0:02:07 > 0:02:12keen eye for quality on Flog It and her predator instinct on Bargain Hunt.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19If I can't turn a shilling on this, there's a problem.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23They're going head-to-head at Sedgefield Racecourse in Teesside -
0:02:23 > 0:02:25home of the Durham National.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27But it's the weekly car boot sale
0:02:27 > 0:02:29our duelling dealers are planning to plunder.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33They each have £250 of their own money to spend,
0:02:33 > 0:02:37and all the profits they make will go to their chosen charities.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40They've got to buy low, sell high and, above all,
0:02:40 > 0:02:43outwit the opposition.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45David Harper and Caroline Hawley,
0:02:45 > 0:02:48it's time to Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- Well, good morning.- David, good morning.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53- It's so lovely to see you.- And you.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56And this is your first time on Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is,
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- I can't believe it.- It is, it is.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00You're mad, you're mad!
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- How did they convince you to do it? - Oh, God.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06- Well, let's see, it's going to be great.- Car boot, £250.
0:03:06 > 0:03:07I love it.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09- You do?- I've got my car boot hat.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10What do you mean, your car boot hat?
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Whenever I get up to go to a car boot, apart from money,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16this is the next thing I get.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20So we've got £250 and we're going to go and blow it, hopefully, today.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- Gosh, yeah.- Are you raring for it?
0:03:22 > 0:03:24- Absolutely.- And it's a horsey thing.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26It is, yeah, first past the post.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Oh! Shall we gallop off together?
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Yeah, let's. Come on, David.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33Yes, I'm not sure I'd call that a gallop.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36But as our fine prize specimens head out of the paddock and onto
0:03:36 > 0:03:40the racecourse, David has hatched a plan to put his best hoof forward.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43You know, when you talk about buying at car boots, there is
0:03:43 > 0:03:45definitely a tactic involved.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47You've got to get in there early,
0:03:47 > 0:03:49have plenty of cash in your pocket
0:03:49 > 0:03:52and if you like it, you can afford it,
0:03:52 > 0:03:53it feels a good deal,
0:03:53 > 0:03:57then by it because three seconds later it's gone.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01So, Devilish Harper's planning a ninja style speed attack.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04What's the Hawk's strategy?
0:04:04 > 0:04:08My tactic today is to move quickly, swoop on what I want, on to the next one.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10There's too much competition here to do anything else.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Not least today, old Harper's here too.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17Well, looks like today's shaping up to be a bit of a smash and grab.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20But, which of our treasure hunting thoroughbreds will be
0:04:20 > 0:04:22the first to seal a deal?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Will it be dastardly David, the Put Your Money pro?
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Or his new blonde bombshell opponent?
0:04:29 > 0:04:33So, I've got a new competitor today on Put Your Money - Caroline Hawley,
0:04:33 > 0:04:37She looks lovely, she's very sweet, she's got a lovely
0:04:37 > 0:04:39character and personality,
0:04:39 > 0:04:42but do not think that this girl is a pushover.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44I know Caroline and she is very good.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47She is very, very good.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49She is red-hot.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52She certainly is.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55She's got a flair for fashion and a thirst for profit.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57She may be the new dealer on the block,
0:04:57 > 0:05:01but she knows how to play like the best of them.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04And now it's time to see her sizzle in action.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Do you know, I really like this.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10This has been on somebody's shop, I would think.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13It's absolutely fantastic.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15What sort of price are you looking for?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17£50.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19£50? I like him,
0:05:19 > 0:05:20but not that much.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22I do like him.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24How much do you like him?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27- 35 and you have a deal.- 38.
0:05:27 > 0:05:2935 and you have a deal.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- Go on then.- Go on. 35.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33You've got yourself a deal there.
0:05:33 > 0:05:34Thank you, sir.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Yes, one-nil to the new girl.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43As soon as I saw this, homed in on it, I love it.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Handmade, signed by the artist.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47It's a great piece of work.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50It's all wood, the only thing here is this pig here, which has been
0:05:50 > 0:05:53moulded. But look at this - "Bath chap," now, that it's a
0:05:53 > 0:05:57cut of meat I've never heard of, and I'm sure it's delicious.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00So, Caroline is first out of the gate with her piggy painting.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07But David is hot on her heels as he spots a pair of watercolours.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- They are Teesdale, I think, aren't they?- They are Teesdale, yeah.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- What sort of money are they?- 20 quid.
0:06:13 > 0:06:1720 quid for the pair, tenner each. Can it be 15 quid the pair?
0:06:17 > 0:06:19- Go on then.- Good man, thank you very much.- No problem.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21OK, while I've got you here, put them there, let me have a
0:06:21 > 0:06:23look at this croquet set.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26I reckon they're 1930s to 1950s.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28You get the cobwebs for nowt.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Seriously? What sort of money is that to me?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- 20 quid.- 20 quid? Seriously?
0:06:33 > 0:06:37You and I love the figure 15, don't we? We do love it, don't we?
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- Do you love 15?- Go on then. - I love 15.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Good man, thank you very much.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Two purchases, quickfire.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45- That's the way to do it.- I'll say.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Our smooth talking squire has hit the ground running.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51A pair of original hand-painted watercolours.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54There are very traditional, they're in the original frames.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58I know they're not the most fashionable of subjects right now,
0:06:58 > 0:07:00but they're going to take me on a journey, no doubt, because when
0:07:00 > 0:07:02I do find out where they're from,
0:07:02 > 0:07:05I will try and find someone in that area that
0:07:05 > 0:07:08would be interested in buying them, so there's going to be profit there.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11And don't you just love that croquet set?
0:07:11 > 0:07:15It's mid-20th century, it's well-worn, well used.
0:07:15 > 0:07:20All I need to do is find somebody who will enjoy playing croquet as much
0:07:20 > 0:07:24as I do, but at the same time give me a whacking great big profit.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Croquet and watercolours.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Trust our Durham gent to home in on some sophisticated items.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Caroline, however, is struggling to sort the wheat from the chaff.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37There's not too much stuff here, it's lots of toys and Hoovers.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40I've seen lots of vacuum cleaners, lots of toys,
0:07:40 > 0:07:43but nothing I really want to buy yet.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Oh, dear, the Hawk's looking flustered.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48She needs to get back in the race, and fast,
0:07:48 > 0:07:51as Devilish shows no signs of stopping.
0:07:51 > 0:07:52Tell me about this chair.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Talk to me about the chair, what have you learned?
0:07:55 > 0:07:59It's 1950s, Danish designer.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02The designer's Arne Dekurkel.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03Arne Dekurkel?
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Yeah.- OK.- 25 quid.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09OK, well, that's cheap enough.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11It looks like it has its original material there.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15- Good shape, clean shape, isn't it?- It is, yeah.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17And it's not just the retro chair Harper's got his eye on.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20What has your research told you about that?
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- It's Sherborne sewing box. - Is that marked?
0:08:24 > 0:08:25- Yeah, it is.- Right, OK.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- What sort of money's that? - I've got 25 on that.
0:08:28 > 0:08:3125 again. So that's from the same period, 1950s.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Will 30 quid buy the pair?
0:08:33 > 0:08:35I'll do 40 quid.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37I'll meet you half way - 35.
0:08:37 > 0:08:3940 quid and we'll shake on it.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- I'll spin you. 35 or 40.- Go on. - Good man.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Heads it's 40 quid, tails it's 35.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46OK.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49It's heads, well done.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51I had every confidence in myself.
0:08:51 > 0:08:52Ah, bad luck.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55But that last deal means David has four items
0:08:55 > 0:08:58compared to his opponent's one.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00The Hawk, however, has been circling the boot sale,
0:09:00 > 0:09:02and she's ready to dive.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I've just spotted a fantastic little thing over there
0:09:06 > 0:09:07and I need to buy it.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10I've got a plan for it already and I haven't even bought it.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12It wants to be cheap, but I'm going to transform it.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14It's the Singer sewing machine table base,
0:09:14 > 0:09:17but I'm going to transform it by putting a top on it
0:09:17 > 0:09:20and it will make the most fantastic garden table.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Come on, let's go and have a look.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Yes, a plan before she's even laid hands on it.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31Can I just ask you, what's the very, very best you can do on that?
0:09:32 > 0:09:34£8.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- Look into my eyes. - Eh?
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Look into my eyes. My eyes.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41My eyes.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43I'll give you a fiver.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45I've got to make a profit.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47Fiver?
0:09:47 > 0:09:48Go on then, you've pulled me.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- Thank you, sir.- Ah, the old look into my eyes trick.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54It's sharp move from the Queen of the Curio.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58I'm really happy with this sewing machine base.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Originally, it would have had a top and the sewing machine
0:10:01 > 0:10:05with a recessed well that the sewing machine would tip over and go into.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I'm really not going to struggle to sell this.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11It really is fantastic and for a fiver, it's for nowt!
0:10:11 > 0:10:14And while the seller is still under her spell,
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Caroline swoops in on an ornamental bird cage.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Norman, can I just talk to you again?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Can I be really cheeky?
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Will you take a quid?
0:10:24 > 0:10:26£2 is the best I can do.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Go on, I think that's fair enough. £2, I'll have it.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32With three items in her stash,
0:10:32 > 0:10:34Caroline's catching up with Devilish.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38But there's no let-up as Harper sticks to his quickfire buying strategy.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42It seems he's thrown his sophistication out the window.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46I've got to say, these are quite nice looking, aren't they?
0:10:46 > 0:10:48- They're all right.- They're OK.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50They need restoring on the frames.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Any idea where they came from?
0:10:52 > 0:10:56Yeah, the came from Hartlepool College of Further Education.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Right, OK. So, date wise,
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- I'm guessing early 20th century. - '30s.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Yeah, maybe '20s, '30s, aren't they?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06But leaded lights, leaded glass windows, I mean,
0:11:06 > 0:11:09you've got almost an Art Nouveau kind of feel to it, haven't you?
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Which ties in nicely with its date, with that kind of organic,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14flowing decoration.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- How much are they?- Tenner each. - Tenner each?
0:11:17 > 0:11:20What's the absolute very best on those, for all of them?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22There's 10 pieces.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- 50 quid the lot. - 50 quid the lot. Fiver apiece.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29- That's about it, yeah.- OK, I'll have those. Thank you very much indeed.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31It's his biggest buy so far,
0:11:31 > 0:11:33but this titan of the trade has no second thoughts.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Aren't they absolutely, seriously drop-dead gorgeous?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Ten windows like this with leaded lights.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45The market for architectural pieces like this ten years ago was
0:11:45 > 0:11:50really, really strong. It died off a bit, but it's coming back again.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Of course, interior designers use these things in bathrooms and in kitchens.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56You strip the frames off, clean them up and,
0:11:56 > 0:11:58in a new home environment,
0:11:58 > 0:12:01they look absolutely a million dollars.
0:12:01 > 0:12:07So loads of places I could go, and I think they are stonkingly cheap.
0:12:07 > 0:12:12So, yet again the Doyen of Durham stretches out into the lead.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16But, the Hawk's not flown off. She's fishing for her next deal.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- How much are your flies, please?- £8.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21There's 42 flies in there.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24I could chuck them in,
0:12:24 > 0:12:26give you the whole lot for eight.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Another box of flies.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32Now these, these are actually tied.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I'll give you a fiver for the whole lot.
0:12:35 > 0:12:36£5 for the lot.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38I can't, I'm sorry, I can't.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Try a little bit.- I can't.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43£6 and that's it. Honestly, £6. I can do six.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Go on then. Go on, six.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- It's a deal.- Yeah, go on.- Thank you.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Hawley the Haggler - a master at work.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Now, I was immediately attracted to these flies
0:12:56 > 0:12:57and I'm sure the fish will be too.
0:12:57 > 0:13:02Now, I'm the first to admit I'm not an expert on fishing,
0:13:02 > 0:13:04but I know a man that is.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08These in this box here are all hand tied and they must be cheap.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11You know, £6 for all these, including the box,
0:13:11 > 0:13:13there's got to be a profit.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16If I can't turn a shilling on this, there's a problem.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19Ah, well, we have every faith in you, Lady Caroline,
0:13:19 > 0:13:22though it's pounds, not shillings you need to be aiming for.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26It looks like David had better watch his back.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Now where is that Hawk?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Where is she?
0:13:30 > 0:13:33She'll be flitting and floating and flying around somewhere.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36This telescope is not working, try that way.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Come on, Hawk, where are you? That's better. Oh, no, you're not anywhere.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42It's a rubbish telescope, rubbish.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Yes, back to work, Pugwash.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47So, as our stallion and filly reach the half way post,
0:13:47 > 0:13:50let's pause to check the bookies odds.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Our expert each started the day
0:13:52 > 0:13:54with £250 of their own money.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Devilish David galloped off to an early lead and bagged himself
0:13:57 > 0:14:00five items for £120,
0:14:00 > 0:14:03leaving him £130 to spend.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10Caroline the Hawk has four items to her name, but has haggled her way to
0:14:10 > 0:14:14a £48 spend, leaving a whopping £202 in her kitty.
0:14:16 > 0:14:22So, will it be David's extravagance or the Hawk's thriftiness that wins the day?
0:14:22 > 0:14:24- Hello, madam.- Hello, you.
0:14:24 > 0:14:25Are you drawn to power tools?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I am, sometimes.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29How's it going?
0:14:29 > 0:14:31I'm starting now to struggle. What about you?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35So am I, and I'm starting to see the same things again.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38- It's getting a bit harder, actually. - It is.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- I was on a roll at one stage.- I was.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42I was, exactly, and now I'm struggling.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45You're right, you've done several circuits
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- and nothing new is coming out. - No, no.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Right, listen, I'll tell you what then,
0:14:50 > 0:14:51you get buying your electronic tools
0:14:51 > 0:14:53and do whatever you want to do with
0:14:53 > 0:14:56those, and I'll go and try and find some real antiques, cos that's what I do.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58- OK, goodbye.- Good luck.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59Oh, play nice, David.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03Our dealers started the day at full pelt, bagging bargains quicker
0:15:03 > 0:15:08than you can say "boot sale", but has their gallop slowed to a trot?
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Right, OK, as you can see, that's the end of the car boot.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I've been around that way a few times and now I'm going to go
0:15:15 > 0:15:20around that way in the hope that I see something that I haven't seen before.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22The stallholders are starting to pack up
0:15:22 > 0:15:26and our Durham gent seems to be going round in circles.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30Look at this, it's looking a bit tricky here, chaps.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32They're starting to pack up.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34The wind's picking up, it's getting colder,
0:15:34 > 0:15:38so everybody with any sense is on the way home.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42While Devilish retraces his steps, Caroline has snuck off
0:15:42 > 0:15:46and bought a pair of folding cake stands whilst he's not looking.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50I'm thrilled that I managed to get the pair of them for £10.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53You see quite a lot of cake stands from the
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Edwardian period, up to the '40s, '50s.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Very often the Edwardian ones were in mahogany with a little bit of inlay,
0:15:59 > 0:16:03but it's the same principle, the same fold-up principle.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07But these are as late as they come, really. '40s, '50s, I would say.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10There's a little bit of water damage down here,
0:16:10 > 0:16:13but they're in such good condition.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16I think those are really quite fun and I've got a few ideas
0:16:16 > 0:16:19going on as to what I might do with these.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22The countdown is on as we enter the final furlong of today's
0:16:22 > 0:16:26car boot steeplechase. And there's a final dash from Devilish.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29He spots an antique games compendium
0:16:29 > 0:16:32and it seems he's up for a game with its owners.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36Many hours of fun have been had
0:16:36 > 0:16:39and still could be had by owning
0:16:39 > 0:16:42something like that for about £3, I would guess.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- I had £45 on it.- Ah, 45. Ah, right.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46I don't think there's much...
0:16:46 > 0:16:49It wouldn't leave anything in it for me.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52I think it would need to be £20.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Why don't we just go 28?
0:16:54 > 0:16:55Let's go 25.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Go on then, it's a deal.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Thank you very much. Lovely.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03You know, I really love this thing.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05It's just oozing character.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Games compendium dating to about the 1950s.
0:17:08 > 0:17:14So much going on, everything from solitaire to draughts to chess
0:17:14 > 0:17:16to card games.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Oh, look at that. Look at that.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21How perfectly apt -
0:17:21 > 0:17:25some playing cards with little horsey heads on.
0:17:25 > 0:17:26Isn't that amazing?
0:17:28 > 0:17:29Wonderful thing.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32No money, £25. It's gorgeous.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I'll have some fun, I'll enjoy using it,
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I'll play with it and hopefully make a profit.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40That's what this business is all about. Things like that.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42And with that, David decides he's crossed
0:17:42 > 0:17:44the finishing line and bought enough.
0:17:44 > 0:17:49But, cutthroat Caroline still has a whopping £192 in her kitty.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53And with the boot sale fast disappearing around her,
0:17:53 > 0:17:55is she starting to panic?
0:17:55 > 0:17:58People are starting to pack up, I'm going to have to really shift it.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00I've got a couple more items to buy.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Our fine filly canters through the collectables
0:18:03 > 0:18:06and with just with a minute to spare tracks down a tea set.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Excuse me.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11How much is your tea set, please?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13I'll take £3 for it.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14Will you?
0:18:14 > 0:18:19How many are there? There's five cups, six saucers, six plates.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23- Couple of pound buy it, at this late stage?- Aye, two quid.
0:18:23 > 0:18:24We'll have it.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27I'll have it. Thank you.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28And the last of the big spenders,
0:18:28 > 0:18:33Hawley also nets herself a fishing mug for the princely sum of 50p.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36So that whopping spend takes her over the finishing line.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Phew.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42But, was a last minute dash always part of her plan?
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Do you know, the very best time to buy at a car boot sale is right now,
0:18:45 > 0:18:49when they're packing up. People just do not want to take it home with them.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51They want to move it.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Oh, she's a wily one.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55And with that, it's time to tot up their totals.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02David and Caroline started their day at the races with a budget of £250.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05David hit the ground running and leaves with six purchases
0:19:05 > 0:19:08costing £145.
0:19:08 > 0:19:13Caroline bought seven items but spent just £60.50.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Our prize hunting pair have given their all,
0:19:18 > 0:19:22and they now take the chance to check out each other's treasures.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Well, I've had a great day, David. What about you?
0:19:24 > 0:19:25I've had a superb day.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27It's been very small and compact.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30And I think we both struggled towards the end.
0:19:30 > 0:19:31How much do you spend?
0:19:31 > 0:19:33- Roughly £60.- Good gosh.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- What you can buy for £60.- I know.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Unbelievable, should be 20.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Excuse me, what about you, David?
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- How much did you spend?- About 140,
0:19:42 > 0:19:44- should have been 40.- Yeah.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48So what on earth have we got here?
0:19:48 > 0:19:50They are a souvenir of Wales,
0:19:50 > 0:19:52probably 1950s.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- They're rather charming. - For Hull.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56No, well...
0:19:56 > 0:20:00I think there's a lot of people who hail from Wales that would be
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- very interested in those.- In Hull.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Yes, in and around Hull. I've got ideas.
0:20:06 > 0:20:07Is there a Welsh enclave in Hull?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10- There might well be, David, yes, I've got designs on it.- Oh, I say.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- Oh, you've got a plan, haven't you? - My tea set...
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I'm not worried about your tea set, Mrs, I'm not.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- I love this croquet set.- I know. - It is a child's one, isn't it?
0:20:18 > 0:20:20They do look a little small.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23But it is all... I think that's lovely.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25And it's got some age, and it is just oozing character,
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- because it has been well, well loved, hasn't it?- Yeah.- I paid for that, £15.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33- Oh, I'm very jealous.- Brilliant, isn't it? Absolutely brilliant.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- I love that.- That is going to look good anywhere. And I saw these.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Ten of those.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- Gosh.- Five quid each.- No?! - It's good, isn't it? Got to be good.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45- And are they all in good condition? - No.- But it is worth that in lead.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47- Take the lead out and scrap them. - Scrap them.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50And, hang on a minute, what on earth is that?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Well, you might well ask what that is.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Not very many years ago,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56you would have actually vomited the moment you saw it.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00- Yes.- Now, you're strangely drawn to it.- I know.- It is odd, isn't it?
0:21:00 > 0:21:01It is really odd,
0:21:01 > 0:21:05because it is almost hideous enough to be attractive.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09- It is absolutely, yes. Kitchen cool. - Yes.- But it's been good fun.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Oh, it's been great fun. Great fun.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14- So I will see you at the finish post, David.- Boom, boom!- Boom, boom!
0:21:14 > 0:21:16- Come on.- Come on, then. Jog on!
0:21:20 > 0:21:24So, our daring duo head home with their car boot bounty.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26They need to steel themselves
0:21:26 > 0:21:30and steady their nerves, as this is where things get really tough.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32They've got to find buyers for all their items
0:21:32 > 0:21:35and hunt down the biggest profits possible.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38So they'll need to flex their contacts books,
0:21:38 > 0:21:42hone their haggling techniques and work their selling socks off.
0:21:43 > 0:21:48Back at Chateaux Devilish, David is in an upbeat mood.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Well, here we are, my car boot collection
0:21:50 > 0:21:53and, if I do say so myself, not a bad collection, I feel.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57And my favourite piece, no doubt about it, or pieces rather,
0:21:57 > 0:22:02my collection of stained-glass window panels here. They are great.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05Bit of a disappointment on the watercolours.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09Which, sadly, have not turned out to be a local Teesdale scene.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12They are a little further away. One is in southern Scotland
0:22:12 > 0:22:16and one is in the Lake District. A 1950s lady's sewing box.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20It's funky, and actually, on reflection, I like the colour.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23I'm going to try pitch it and sell it as it is.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26The croquet set, I haven't had chance to clean it yet,
0:22:26 > 0:22:29but I'm desperate to give it a go. What else have I got?
0:22:29 > 0:22:32OK, well, the games box is brilliant.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35And I've been thinking about that, racking my brains,
0:22:35 > 0:22:39where I'm going to go. So a little bit of thought there.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41And finally, the '50s chair.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Again, similar to this piece, on reflection, it's all right.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48The colours are good. Why ruin it?
0:22:48 > 0:22:51I think I'll leave it for the next person to decide whether
0:22:51 > 0:22:54they want to change their colours.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56And you know what, there's a great satisfaction
0:22:56 > 0:23:00in pulling things out of a car boot where you expect to buy nothing
0:23:00 > 0:23:03but white socks and old trainers,
0:23:03 > 0:23:07and then getting those objects into the real antique market.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Love it.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10In Yorkshire, at Hawk HQ,
0:23:10 > 0:23:13Caroline has also gathered her car boot bootie.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17I bought this sign from Ray the butcher.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20And I thought it would be a piece of cake to sell it, but I'm
0:23:20 > 0:23:25struggling to find a Ray at all, let alone a Ray who's a butcher.
0:23:25 > 0:23:30Now, the bird cage, I'm going to look into having it sprayed.
0:23:30 > 0:23:35The flies, I think I'm going to make quite a good profit on these.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39And I bought this mug...50p,
0:23:39 > 0:23:42which I can throw in as little sweetener.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46This tea service, they've got to be worth a fiver a trio,
0:23:46 > 0:23:48cup, saucer, plate, surely.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52Now, the sewing machine base. We've all seen them, they are everywhere, I know.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56But I'm going to make this different, and you will not recognise
0:23:56 > 0:23:59this when I've done what I'm going to do to it.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02These two things, these stands, I think I'm going to leave them
0:24:02 > 0:24:06as they are, and the buyer can do what they will with them.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09Well, I think I've done pretty well,
0:24:09 > 0:24:12and I think David is going to have to be on his mettle.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Yes, fighting talk from the Hawk.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Both our sellers need to be on top dealing form
0:24:19 > 0:24:21if they are to root out the best buyers.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Any profits will go to their chosen charities and, remember,
0:24:24 > 0:24:27until they've shaken on it and the money has changed hands,
0:24:27 > 0:24:29no deal is ever sealed.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Devilish David kicks off his selling spree in Darlington with
0:24:34 > 0:24:37a visit to Simon, a stained-glass artist.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40He's brought his most expensive boot-sale buy,
0:24:40 > 0:24:44those stained-glass windows, which costs him £50 for the set of ten.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50Well, well, well, Simon, this is where it all happens, is it?
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Don't look so horrified, compared to your artwork.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56- How are you?- I'm very well, how are you?- Very good to see you. I'm really well.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- What have you brought me. - Now, I've got ten of these.
0:24:59 > 0:25:04- What sort of condition are...? - All a bit...similar.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06- Some with cracks.- Right.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Not that very many. But all in...
0:25:09 > 0:25:12- all in frames, apart from one. - Well, basically, I will take them
0:25:12 > 0:25:15out of the wooden frames
0:25:15 > 0:25:19- and dismantle them...- Yeah. - ..to re-use the old glass.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23So if I said to you, each panel is...
0:25:24 > 0:25:28..£15 each, how would that sound?
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- That would sound very expensive. - Would it really?- Yes.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35- Would it seriously?- Seriously! - That is bonkers!- Seriously!- Bonkers!
0:25:35 > 0:25:40- Talk about ten.- Each. But you will have the lot?- I'll...
0:25:40 > 0:25:42- take the lot.- 100 quid.
0:25:42 > 0:25:45- Yeah.- Good man, I'll do it. OK.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50So, Devilish kicks off his profit pot with £50.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53There you go, Caroline, that's how you do it.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57I've done my bit for humanity, I've saved some glass panels...
0:25:57 > 0:26:00and I've doubled my money.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Well, the Hawk has been hard at work, too,
0:26:02 > 0:26:06and she's lined up a possible purchaser for that Welsh tea set.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10She's come just a few miles down the road from home to meet Jo,
0:26:10 > 0:26:13chairwoman of the local Welsh society.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18You were the first person, Jo, that just came to mind
0:26:18 > 0:26:21when I bought this. I think it is wonderful,
0:26:21 > 0:26:23and I hope you do, too.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26Oh, I'm very excited about seeing it.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29Now we've got five in all trios,
0:26:29 > 0:26:32- which is cup, saucer and plate. - Excellent!
0:26:32 > 0:26:35And it has got the lady with the Welsh costume on
0:26:35 > 0:26:38and the spinning wheel and the daffodils.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- Oh, do you like it?- It's lovely.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- And is this the sort of thing you might use, Jo?- Definitely.
0:26:45 > 0:26:50I think it would be definitely something I would use, particularly when I've got my Welsh cakes out.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53- Oh! Do you make Welsh cakes? - I do, yes.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Now, I think they could be worth,
0:26:56 > 0:26:59what, £10 a trio?
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Which would make it £50 for the lot.
0:27:02 > 0:27:06- Mmm! Can I haggle with you a little bit?- Haggle away, Jo.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Well, I'm thinking that my grandmother has just given me
0:27:09 > 0:27:11some money for my birthday recently,
0:27:11 > 0:27:13and I've been wondering what to spend it on.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17And I'm thinking, if I use that money to buy...
0:27:17 > 0:27:19- to buy the set...- Right.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22..then every time I use the set I would think of her,
0:27:22 > 0:27:24- particularly as she paid for it. - That's lovely!
0:27:24 > 0:27:28- As long as she didn't give you a pound. - THEY LAUGH
0:27:28 > 0:27:32- Well, she gave me, she very generously gave me £30.- £30.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- Mm-hm.- Yes, I'm going to say yes.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38£30. Thank you, Jo.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40The tea set cost Caroline just £2,
0:27:40 > 0:27:44so that's a very tasty £28 profit.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46And the Hawk goes straight back on the hunt,
0:27:46 > 0:27:49casting a line for her next profit.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53She's brought her fishing flies and mug to a local fisherman,
0:27:53 > 0:27:54who owns his own pond.
0:27:54 > 0:27:59And before you can say trout, she sells the two together for £25.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05Netting herself a tidy profit of £18.50.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11So, with Caroline sneaking into the lead with three sales to
0:28:11 > 0:28:15David's one, Devilish needs to up his selling game.
0:28:15 > 0:28:16And fast.
0:28:16 > 0:28:21He's back in Darlington with one of his retro boot sale buys.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Well, I can tell you this is going to be an interesting one. With the
0:28:24 > 0:28:27vintage sewing box, I could have gone many routes.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30I could have gone to London, to a vintage retailer,
0:28:30 > 0:28:32but no, I'm going a specialist route,
0:28:32 > 0:28:37to a specialist sewing machine and equipment supplier.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40I've spoken to him, he hasn't seen this object,
0:28:40 > 0:28:43he has no idea at all what to expect.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46And I have no idea what to expect either.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Living life on the edge.
0:28:48 > 0:28:52Yes. On the edge, David? You maverick!
0:28:52 > 0:28:55With £20 invested in his sewing box,
0:28:55 > 0:28:58he's hoping shop manager Stuart will like it as much as he does.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01- Nice to meet you, David.- David Harper, we spoke on the phone.- Yes.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05- So you're an expert in all things sewing?- Everything, yes.- All right.
0:29:05 > 0:29:10Talking of all things sewing, it screams 1950s.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12Yep. It is a nice product and it would be nice for a display,
0:29:12 > 0:29:15but it's got no value any more.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18SAD TROMBONE
0:29:18 > 0:29:21Uh-oh! I sense a hard haggle coming on.
0:29:21 > 0:29:25- 40 quid. Got to be 40 quid. - No, can't be.- Seriously?- No.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28I tell you what, are you a bit of a challenge man,
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- a bit of a gambling fellow? - I don't mind a challenge.- OK.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Do you want to set me a challenge?
0:29:34 > 0:29:37With negotiations at a stalemate, Stuart offers to pay £6
0:29:37 > 0:29:41for every straight line that David sews.
0:29:41 > 0:29:43But there is a one minute time limit,
0:29:43 > 0:29:47so let the Put Your Money Sewing Bee commence!
0:29:47 > 0:29:48And go.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Stuart, this is slow.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56- Stop there, lift that up? - Lift that up.- Thank you.
0:29:56 > 0:30:01- Back to here?- Back to there.- On number three.- Put that back down.- OK.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04- Come on, you've got ten seconds. - Oh, come on!
0:30:04 > 0:30:07Stuart, I've been absolutely conned. This is rubbish.
0:30:07 > 0:30:11- There we go, that's 61 seconds. - How many have I done, four?
0:30:11 > 0:30:16- One-and-a-half.- There are four lines there, I'm counting yours. STUART LAUGHS
0:30:16 > 0:30:17- Go on.- Call it three, call it three.
0:30:17 > 0:30:22That's a loss, that! Call it four and that's what, £24 made, £4.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25- All right, then.- Honestly, I'm never coming here ever again!
0:30:25 > 0:30:27Never!
0:30:27 > 0:30:30I'm so not interested in sewing! STUART LAUGHS
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Oh, don't be a sore loser, Devilish.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Here's a teeny £4 profit, though.
0:30:35 > 0:30:40Well, that was an absolutely rubbish profit. And that challenge?
0:30:40 > 0:30:43I was completely stitched up.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44Well done, Stuart.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50Well, 40 miles south, the Hawk has flown over to Harrogate to
0:30:50 > 0:30:53visit a specialist retro vintage shop.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56It's packed to the rafters with colourful, quirky collectables
0:30:56 > 0:30:59and designer clobber. Groovy, baby!
0:30:59 > 0:31:03She's hoping owner Steve will take a shine to her folding cake stands,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06which she picked up for just a tenner.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09Hi, Steve.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12- I've brought those tables to show you.- I'll be interested to see them.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Now, how cool is that? 1950s.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18I think these are interesting because they are kind of retro
0:31:18 > 0:31:20- and vintage.- And useful.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23And shabby chic, so they will fit into lots of different houses.
0:31:23 > 0:31:28Well, so would...£50, £25 each, be any good to you?
0:31:28 > 0:31:30That...probably a bit much. These are...
0:31:30 > 0:31:34- That's not far off the amount we're selling them for, to be honest.- Right.
0:31:34 > 0:31:38- So you need to make a profit?- We'd be hoping for a bit less.- Right.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40- Go on, then, haggle away, Steve. - Er...
0:31:42 > 0:31:45Well, they are in a nice condition, so I would be happy at 15 each. I'd shake on that.
0:31:45 > 0:31:4715 each, that's 30.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50Will you still shake my hand at 35?
0:31:52 > 0:31:54- I would.- Thank you very much.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57- Fantastic.- That's great.- Yes, cool.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00So the Hawk swoops in on a profit of £25.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03With both our superstar sellers dealing as
0:32:03 > 0:32:07if their lives depended on it, let's take a look at the figures so far.
0:32:09 > 0:32:14David has struck two deals and banked a profit of £54.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17Caroline has sold four of her items
0:32:17 > 0:32:20and made a profit of £71.50.
0:32:20 > 0:32:24So it's been a modest start for both our dealers, but with three more
0:32:24 > 0:32:27items each left to sell, there is everything to play for.
0:32:29 > 0:32:33The next item on Caroline's profit quest is the little bird cage
0:32:33 > 0:32:35that cost her just £2.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37She's had it professionally spray-painted
0:32:37 > 0:32:41so that it's butterfly motif matches her local hairdressers.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44And has it to hand for her next appointment.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48Marisa, I know you've been doing a bit of decoration and stuff,
0:32:48 > 0:32:51so I've brought a little something along for you.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53I was here the other day, I don't know if you noticed,
0:32:53 > 0:32:56but I spent a long time looking at the wallpaper.
0:32:56 > 0:32:59And I've had it custom sprayed for you.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01But, and there is a but, Marisa, money.
0:33:01 > 0:33:05The bill for the paint spraying has cost me £40 to have it coloured.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08- So I need a profit on 40 and a bit. - Right.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10- Are you able to do that?- 50?
0:33:10 > 0:33:14- Should we round it up to 50? - Could you push it to 60?
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Um...55.
0:33:17 > 0:33:1957.50?
0:33:19 > 0:33:22- Deal.- Deal. Brilliant! Thank you so much!
0:33:22 > 0:33:24Don't argue with your hairdresser,
0:33:24 > 0:33:25not when she's got scissors in her hand.
0:33:25 > 0:33:30Minus the cost of the paint job, that's still over £15 profit.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33A swooping success by the Hawk.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36She's now sold five of her seven car boot treasures,
0:33:36 > 0:33:39but her devilish opponent has only shifted two.
0:33:39 > 0:33:43He is staying rural for his next potential sale.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Oh, look at that countryside!
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Quite a contrast, I think you'll agree,
0:33:48 > 0:33:50from a car boot in County Durham
0:33:50 > 0:33:54to the gorgeous County Durham rural landscape.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57And what a lovely day...for croquet.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00Oh, he's gone all poetic.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02The set cost David £15.
0:34:02 > 0:34:07Time to unleash his sales pitch on garden antiques dealer Michael.
0:34:08 > 0:34:11- Michael.- David.- Are you ready...
0:34:11 > 0:34:13for a piece of delight?
0:34:13 > 0:34:15You're blown away, aren't you?
0:34:15 > 0:34:20- Stunned.- Stunned. Do you play croquet? Everybody plays croquet, don't they?
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Well, everybody likes a game of croquet.- It's got a bit of age.
0:34:23 > 0:34:24You like your garden stuff.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28Look around you, surrounded by very upmarket garden wear.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30It fits with the garden wear, definitely.
0:34:30 > 0:34:34- It's got a certain charm.- Good, OK.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37- What's that charm worth? - A certain charm.- 65?
0:34:37 > 0:34:39MICHAEL SCOFFS It's not a lot, is it?
0:34:39 > 0:34:40MICHAEL LAUGHS
0:34:40 > 0:34:45- That's a fortune for it.- Seriously? - Yes, seriously.- Do you think so?
0:34:45 > 0:34:48- I think we're more like 25. - Really?- Yeah.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50- 55?- No way!- Seriously?
0:34:50 > 0:34:54- Yes, seriously.- Damp cloth. It's got your original balls, in good order.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Should we spin a coin? 30 or 40.
0:34:57 > 0:35:01- Go on, then. - Heads, it's 30, tails...
0:35:01 > 0:35:03- it's 80, yeah?- No.- 40.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05- Ready?- Go for it.
0:35:07 > 0:35:10- You can change your mind if you want to.- Don't want to.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13- Oh!- Yes, the first one I have won,
0:35:13 > 0:35:15- the first one this series!- Oh!
0:35:15 > 0:35:18£180, Michael, thank you so much.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21£40. And I'll probably lose 20 on it anyway.
0:35:21 > 0:35:22DAVID LAUGHS
0:35:22 > 0:35:25Ah, so the Harper coin toss came good in the end.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28And that means David turns himself a £25 profit.
0:35:30 > 0:35:34He also finds a new home for that pre-1950s chair,
0:35:34 > 0:35:37selling it to a florist in Darlington for a £10 profit.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44Caroline is still trying to find a new home for that butchers sign.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47She's in her local town of Beverley, and with the hunt for Ray
0:35:47 > 0:35:50turning to a dead-end, she's had to think outside of the box.
0:35:51 > 0:35:55Well, I've scoured the phone book for a Ray the butcher without
0:35:55 > 0:35:58success, but I have found Pete from Ye Olde Pork Shoppe,
0:35:58 > 0:36:00and he needs a sign.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02So I've gone a bit out on a limb, I've paid some money,
0:36:02 > 0:36:07and I've changed Ray to Pete, so let's hope he has it.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09The paint job cost her £15,
0:36:09 > 0:36:12which takes her total spend on the sign to 50.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14- Now, the big moment.- Yes.
0:36:14 > 0:36:18- I've brought this sign to show you. - Can I see it?- Yes, you can.
0:36:18 > 0:36:22- Have a look.- Oh, yes.- What do you think?- It will go down well on...
0:36:22 > 0:36:25- Well, subject to negotiations, anyway.- Subject to negotiations,
0:36:25 > 0:36:28- which brings us to... - I'm not getting sucked in yet. - THEY LAUGH
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Oh, Pete, Pete!
0:36:30 > 0:36:35This has got your name all over it. Well, at the top, anyway.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- Yeah, just at the top.- So. - Right, well, I was thinking,
0:36:38 > 0:36:42- I've obviously invested some money...- Yes.- ..having it changed.
0:36:42 > 0:36:45Custom made for you, Pete.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48And I was looking to get...
0:36:48 > 0:36:50120.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53- What do you think about that? - A little bit less.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56I mean, if I said to you, what, £80, what do you think?
0:36:58 > 0:37:00I think that's a little bit less.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02If I said 100, and then
0:37:02 > 0:37:05if I do little bit of work for you as well.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Yes, I'll put you to that. I'll put you to some good use.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11- And we will show you how to do a bit of mincing.- Brilliant.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14- I hope I'm not going to regret this. - No, you will be OK. Deal.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17- Deal.- Thank you very much indeed. - Thanks, Pete.- Thank you.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20So that's £50 into the Hawk's profits haul,
0:37:20 > 0:37:24and after washing her hands, it's straight into the backroom.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27Oh! The things I do for a meaty profit.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31Yes, this diamond dealer isn't afraid to get hands on.
0:37:32 > 0:37:36As for Devilish, the games compendium is next on his profit hit list.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39And he's keeping things local in Barnard Castle,
0:37:39 > 0:37:42taking it to show shop owner Helen.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44Remember, it cost him £25.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48Let me show you what I've brought you.
0:37:48 > 0:37:51- Have a good look, a little games compendium.- Yes, very nice.- Yes.
0:37:51 > 0:37:56Loaded with every game your heart could desire.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59- And what sort of age is it, David? - I reckon, well, what do you think?
0:37:59 > 0:38:02- It is certainly a vintage thing. It has got to be '30s,- '40s? Yes, '40s.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05- Yeah.- Something like that. - I would say about the same.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08- OK, so you've got marbles, you've got draughts.- Draughts.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11- You've got cards, look at the cards with the horsey heads.- Very nice.
0:38:11 > 0:38:15Which I think are nice. It is absolutely loaded with stuff.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19- Mm-hm.- Brill, isn't it? - Yes, I like it.- Good thing.- Yes.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23What do you think it's worth? What would you love to pay for it?
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- 30, £40.- Yeah, OK. SHE LAUGHS
0:38:26 > 0:38:28All right. I tell you what I would love to get for it.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32- I would love to get 60.- Uh!- Uh!
0:38:32 > 0:38:34- How about this?- I have to make a profit.- OK, how about this?
0:38:34 > 0:38:38I'll challenge you to a game of your choice, right?
0:38:38 > 0:38:41- Yes.- If you win, 40.
0:38:41 > 0:38:45- If you lose, 60.- If I win, 30.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47And if I lose, 50.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- OK, you can choose, what are we going to challenge?- Dominoes.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52- Come on, then, bring the box.- Yeah.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Devilish the challenger goes into battle again.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59He's putting his reputation on the line,
0:38:59 > 0:39:02risking everything in the pursuit of profit.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13- I'm sorry.- Oh, he's done it!
0:39:13 > 0:39:18So the Doyen of Dominoes doubles his money and pockets a profit of £25.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25Well, this car boot malarkey is turning into a feast of challenges,
0:39:25 > 0:39:29and I am loving it because I'm on a roll.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32And you know what, in this business, it's OK to win and lose a bit,
0:39:32 > 0:39:35but overall, if you are winning, and I am,
0:39:35 > 0:39:37you're winning.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40Devilish is on a lucky streak and he has a final flurry
0:39:40 > 0:39:43when he sells his pair of rural watercolours to the owner of a pub
0:39:43 > 0:39:45near Darlington for £25,
0:39:45 > 0:39:48giving his profit pot a final boost of a tenner.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53The Hawk has one item left in her antiques arsenal,
0:39:53 > 0:39:56and it's that sewing machine table base.
0:39:56 > 0:40:00She pulls in a family favour by asking son Charles to attach
0:40:00 > 0:40:02a wooden top she had going spare.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06And then spends £15 treating the table to a special paint job.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09She's had it in mind for local pub landlord Joe,
0:40:09 > 0:40:12but does he like what she's done to it?
0:40:12 > 0:40:14So, what do you think, Joe?
0:40:15 > 0:40:18It's actually not my style. It doesn't...
0:40:18 > 0:40:22It is a bit too new. It is a bit too glossy.
0:40:22 > 0:40:25It will weather down. I mean, this has been newly varnished,
0:40:25 > 0:40:27- this is hot off the press. - HE SIGHS
0:40:27 > 0:40:30I'm still not... No, no, it is not...
0:40:30 > 0:40:33- It is not going to fit.- OK.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36- I do like it, but it is not going to fit me.- No.- You're very sweet.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39- I thank you for thinking of me, but it is not...- It is not for you.
0:40:39 > 0:40:40It is not for me.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44That is a terrible result for the fledgling Hawk,
0:40:44 > 0:40:47but she's back on the phone straightaway.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50Did she manage to scrape back that £20 investment?
0:40:50 > 0:40:53Well, you'll have to wait and see.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56Because it's nearly time to reveal who's walking away victorious
0:40:56 > 0:40:59and who'll be dealing with defeat.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02First, let's remind ourselves of what they spent in Sedgefield.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07Both our experts took £250 of their own money to the car boot sale.
0:41:09 > 0:41:13David made six purchases, and he spent a total of £145.
0:41:16 > 0:41:19Caroline bought seven items. Including her restoration
0:41:19 > 0:41:24costs on the table, bird cage and sign, she spent £130.50.
0:41:24 > 0:41:27But now it all comes down to profit.
0:41:28 > 0:41:32All of the money that David and Caroline have made from today's
0:41:32 > 0:41:34challenge will go to charities of their choice.
0:41:34 > 0:41:39So the wait is finally over, it's time to reveal who is today's
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is champion!
0:41:43 > 0:41:45- Hi, David.- Hello, you.
0:41:45 > 0:41:49- Well, this is a very different environment to a car boot.- Oh, gosh.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52It was hard going. I mean, there were so few stalls.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55It was good fun, though. I like a bit of car booting.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58- How did you get on with that games compendium?- Brilliant.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00- I thought you would. - That was one of my stars.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04- I'm now officially a dominoes champion.- Oh, David.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07Well, my things were all about upcycling.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09- The bird cage, do you remember the bird cage?- I do.
0:42:09 > 0:42:13I had that professionally painted, and it looked amazing.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15OK, I'm going to predict that you've done rather well.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18I reckon you've got this one. Are you ready?
0:42:18 > 0:42:21BOTH: One! Two! Three!
0:42:21 > 0:42:25- Yes, I knew...- Oh! - I knew you were going to get me, I knew. Well done, you.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29- Thank you.- Well done.- Do you want me to talk to you about painting?
0:42:29 > 0:42:30- Yeah, give me some tips.- Right.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35So, Caroline wins, and it was the sewing machine table that clinched
0:42:35 > 0:42:37the deal, as she sold it to another pub
0:42:37 > 0:42:40for a whopping £30 profit.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42You know, I really liked that car boot.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44There's hardly any stallholders there.
0:42:44 > 0:42:48But you know what? Sometimes that makes your job easier
0:42:48 > 0:42:51because you've just got to focus on a few little areas of buying.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55And actually, I think we both bought pretty well, so I was happy...
0:42:55 > 0:42:57until I found out I lost, of course.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Not so happy then.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Well, David has been a great competitor,
0:43:01 > 0:43:04but I have to say, for my first ever time
0:43:04 > 0:43:08on Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is, I am thrilled to have won!
0:43:08 > 0:43:11But Caroline can't rest on her laurels.
0:43:11 > 0:43:14Tomorrow is another day, and our duo will be
0:43:14 > 0:43:18riding into battle at an antiques auction near Nottingham.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21- Was that David bidding?- No, it wasn't me, it wasn't me. Wasn't me.
