0:00:42 > 0:00:46Today, the dealing dandy David Harper goes into battle with
0:00:46 > 0:00:51princess of profit Caroline Hawley, in a Parisian antiques market.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Coming up, Caroline finds her inner supermodel.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57How cool is this? I just love it!
0:00:57 > 0:00:59But David wants his turn on the catwalk too.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Fashion... I AM fashion.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04And our experts face some hard haggles.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07You've shown me something lovely,
0:01:07 > 0:01:10and it is something I would like to own. £85.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Oh, my goodness gracious!
0:01:13 > 0:01:16This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Bienvenue, Mesdames et messieurs,
0:01:34 > 0:01:36and welcome to a Parisian profit adventure.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40We've crossed the Channel to unleash two duelling dealers
0:01:40 > 0:01:42on a French antiques market,
0:01:42 > 0:01:45and it promises to be a battle of Napoleonic proportions!
0:01:45 > 0:01:49But who will leave the battlefield in a blaze of glory
0:01:49 > 0:01:52and who will be bidding a hasty retreat to Blighty?
0:01:52 > 0:01:55In one corner, it's a profit-hungry powerhouse.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58A man whose colourful clobber hides a black-and-white approach
0:01:58 > 0:02:01to bargain hunting.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04From the north-east of England, it's...
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Do you find that price horrifying?
0:02:07 > 0:02:10His mighty challenger is a sharp-eyed
0:02:10 > 0:02:12auctioneer extraordinaire.
0:02:12 > 0:02:17She circles the sales for bargains before swooping in to make the kill.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20It's Hull's own profit-hunting bird of prey...
0:02:21 > 0:02:25I'm on the case, you might as well just pack it in.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Today's treasure tussle takes place in an
0:02:28 > 0:02:30antiques market in Saint-Ouen, in northern Paris.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33One of the city's largest and most famous markets,
0:02:33 > 0:02:37there are thousands of stalls to plunder, but thousands of other
0:02:37 > 0:02:40buyers to beat as well, so our twosome will need to move quickly!
0:02:40 > 0:02:44They've each got £750 worth of their own euros to spend.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49And of course any profits they make will go to their chosen charities.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53So, without further delay, David Harper and Caroline Hawley,
0:02:53 > 0:02:57it's time to Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Good 'moaning', David.
0:02:59 > 0:03:04Good 'moaning' to you. And crikey, are you going for the bright look!
0:03:04 > 0:03:06I could say the same about you, David.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08This is normal attire! Is that the Parisian hat?
0:03:08 > 0:03:13- It is. Mon chapeau Francais. - Oooh! Have you been to Paris before?
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Not to this particular market, but I've shopped a lot in France.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19I love it. And I find my French is a great help, David.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- Do you speak French? - Oh, fluent.- Do you indeed?
0:03:22 > 0:03:23- Yeah, yeah, baby.- Oh!
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Yeah, they understand me. I'm just like a native.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Basically, I dress like them and I sound like them.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Now, Caroline, you are a big buyer of vintage clothing but why,
0:03:32 > 0:03:35on all of our journeys, have you not bought any vintage items?
0:03:35 > 0:03:38I haven't come across anything really that I want so far.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41But I think today is the day I'm going to find something.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44And I challenge you to do the same, David.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46I think I could do that very well, if that's the case.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50I'm going to challenge you to buy something Oriental.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52OK, bon chance, David.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54- What does that mean? - SHE LAUGHS
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- Come on, let's go.- I understand that. - On y va.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01So it's a clash of the colours today with the green-trousered
0:04:01 > 0:04:04titan going head-to-head with the Pink Panther of Profit.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07And as if their Put Your Money battle wasn't enough,
0:04:07 > 0:04:11they've upped the stakes by setting each other an extra challenge.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Caroline has set me a challenge to buy some vintage fashion.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17She thinks I'm going to struggle with that, does she?
0:04:17 > 0:04:21She doesn't know fashion. I AM fashion!
0:04:21 > 0:04:23- # Fashion - Turn to the left... #
0:04:23 > 0:04:26If you say so, Devilish! The market is under way
0:04:26 > 0:04:29and our colourful collectors are poised to pounce.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32The Hawk is hoping her language skills will give her
0:04:32 > 0:04:33the edge on her rival.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37IN FRENCH:
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Er, yes. And maybe once again for those of us
0:04:46 > 0:04:49that aren't quite up to scratch with the lingo!
0:04:49 > 0:04:50Today I've got a plan.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53I'm going to use my French and it's going to give me
0:04:53 > 0:04:55a major advantage over David.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Good luck, David. Today, I'm going to win.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02Ooh. Merci 'beaucoop'! But Devilish has a plan of his own.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06My tactic is to search out English speakers.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08And then to look for really interesting, wacky,
0:05:08 > 0:05:12eccentric, distinctly Continental pieces that
0:05:12 > 0:05:15when I get back home to old Blighty, they are going to look really
0:05:15 > 0:05:18different and really, really special.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21So, our Durham dealer isn't letting his lack of French hold him back,
0:05:21 > 0:05:25and he's the first to spot a potential profit.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27- Hello.- Hello. - Hi, do you speak English?
0:05:27 > 0:05:29- Yeah.- Thank you!
0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Hello, I'm David.- I'm Pierre. - Pierre, lovely to meet you.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35That's very eccentric. It's very interesting.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Very interesting and very rare.
0:05:37 > 0:05:42- It's a shop sign.- OK, that's what I'm thinking. Yes. Yes.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- The written price... - Oh, it's got a price on it?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- See? 680.- Oh, wow. OK.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50For you, 400.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54400.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58That's a lot. It's a lot. But it's very nice. It couldn't be 200 euros?
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- 250.- 250?- No?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Can we make it 225 euros?
0:06:06 > 0:06:07HE LAUGHS
0:06:07 > 0:06:09How's that?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12How's that? Good man! Marvellous. Marvellous.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Thank you very much, Pierre.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17So, at just over £184,
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Devilish has spent a quarter of his budget on his very first purchase.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23Well, it is obviously a clock face.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Dating to 1948, just after the Second World War.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30And very reminiscent, of course, of the Art Deco style.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34If you look at the number three and the four, so Deco.
0:06:34 > 0:06:35Needs restoring, of course.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38But I don't know where I'm going to go with it.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42But one day it will end up, no doubt, in front of a posh classic
0:06:42 > 0:06:46car dealership or a furniture store or something like that.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50Interestingly, it was priced at 680. I got it at 225.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53You think that might be a bit shocking, not really.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55How do you value something like this?
0:06:55 > 0:06:57You can't value it.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00I think he's just pitched it at a high price thinking someone
0:07:00 > 0:07:03would walk in one day and take it. Obviously they haven't.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07I walk in today, I give him cash, probably owes him nothing,
0:07:07 > 0:07:09he's done well, and I'm very pleased.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Well, we should hope so for that amount of money!
0:07:12 > 0:07:14MUSIC: Pink Panther Theme Tune
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Across the market, the Pink Panther has been on the prowl.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20She's spotted an antique umbrella stand and quickly seals the deal.
0:07:20 > 0:07:25I've just bought this 19th-century French stick stand,
0:07:25 > 0:07:27or umbrella stand, for 60 euros.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30A very, very good price. It's in great condition.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Always look with your hands as well as your eyes.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35You can feel any damage.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39There's no breaks. Cast iron is a very, very brittle material.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43And very prone to breaking. It's a great thing. Very pretty.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Great original condition. I'm thrilled to bits with this.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49So the stick and umbrella stand cost her just
0:07:49 > 0:07:50over £49 in sterling.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55And she's straight onto her second deal
0:07:55 > 0:07:58when she spots a drinks bar in the shape of a ship.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Time to put her French to the test.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02C'est combien?
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- IN FRENCH: - 300 euros.- 300 euros.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06300 euros.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09So how good is The Hawk's haggling en Francais?
0:08:09 > 0:08:12IN FRENCH:
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- OK.- OK?- OK.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Super, madame. Merci beaucoup.
0:08:19 > 0:08:25The smooth talking Hawk seals the deal for £122.95.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29This is fantastic. It's English. It's 1950s.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33It's so kitsch, it's so ghastly, it's wonderful.
0:08:33 > 0:08:38It's all complete, all original. Look at this, there is no damage in it.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Complete with the anchor, can you see?
0:08:40 > 0:08:43It really is fantastic. I love it.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46I could sell this all day long.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47Sante, David.
0:08:47 > 0:08:53Caroline's sweet-talking her way round this market like a true local!
0:08:53 > 0:08:55But what of her devilish opponent?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57He's eyeing up a light fitting,
0:08:57 > 0:09:00but will his lack of lingo hold him back?
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Bonjour. Hi, sorry, do you speak English?
0:09:03 > 0:09:04- A little.- A little, good.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Wall lights, very interesting.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08What date do think these are?
0:09:08 > 0:09:13- 100 years old.- Yeah, it's heading that way. Early 20th century.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17It falls into the Nouveau kind of period. What kind of price?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Here we are.- 120.- Oof!
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Right, OK. I give it the big build-up, you see?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25And then I get hit with a horrific price.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Do you find that price horrifying?
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- Best price, 80. - 80, that's a bit better.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Sir, I think I'm going to have to purchase them. 80.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Thank you very much indeed. - Thank you.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39It's great this, isn't it, speaking fluent French.
0:09:39 > 0:09:45Er, yes! That's deal deux for Devilish Harper, at £65.57.
0:09:47 > 0:09:53I'm happy to take them at 80 euros. And the reason why is the colour.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57The blue and the stylised flame, which gives it more of an
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Art Nouveau feel, as opposed to the standard, traditional wall lights.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05They are a bit unusual. They are a bit special. They are very French.
0:10:05 > 0:10:06They are very stylish.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08- IN A FRENCH ACCENT:- And I am very happy.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12Just using the accent doesn't make it French, you know.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17But the light fittings are bang on his Continental strategy, tres bon!
0:10:17 > 0:10:21Across the market, Caroline has spotted an unusual-looking item.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23It's to make the brim of a hat.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26And if you look at it, you can see
0:10:26 > 0:10:30these little nail holes where the fabric has been put on.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32I think that's quite interesting.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35A little bit of damage, but it's been used.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37C'est combien?
0:10:38 > 0:10:40S'il vous plait?
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Votre meilleur dernier prix pour marchand?
0:10:45 > 0:10:50I've asked for her best, best dealer's price. Dernier prix.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53That means the last price. Let's hope it is.
0:10:55 > 0:10:56C'est 20.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58- 20?!- 20.
0:10:58 > 0:11:0220 euros. I think I've got to have that.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06Merci, madame. Je vais bien. Merci beaucoup, madame.
0:11:06 > 0:11:11That's just over £16 and Caroline's third buy in the bag.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15Our British bargain bloodhounds are taking this market by storm.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19And it's Devilish Harper who's lining up the next deal.
0:11:19 > 0:11:24OK, I've never seen this before so I assume this is an implement
0:11:24 > 0:11:26to help you remove your boot.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31There we go. "France. Creation." I don't know what that says.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32I need Caroline.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Interesting little object, actually. Um...
0:11:36 > 0:11:39It's on the table where it says everything is 10 euros
0:11:39 > 0:11:40but it's priced at 28.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44Let me just find out if that indeed is 10 euros.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46- Bonjour.- Bonjour.- I'm David.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48- Bernhard.- Bernhard, nice to meet you.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50I was looking at this object here.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52- Yes.- Is it 10 euros?
0:11:52 > 0:11:53- Yes.- It's all 10? OK.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56It's a bit odd, it's a bit eccentric.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00I think it falls right into the category of my preferred purchases.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02So, Bernhard, I think we have a deal. 10 euros.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- OK.- Thank you very much indeed. - It's for you. - THEY LAUGH
0:12:06 > 0:12:10Yes, right on his eccentric Continental strategy, and at £8.20,
0:12:10 > 0:12:14that's a pocket-friendly purchase for the Baron of Buying.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17It's neck and neck so far for our profit-hunting Brits.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20But The Hawk's sharp eyes soon spot a little chair
0:12:20 > 0:12:22and before you can say "bargain", she's done the deal.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Aren't I a sucker for children's dolly's furniture?
0:12:28 > 0:12:34This is a steal. 45 euros. It's fantastic. Original condition.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Late 19th, early 20th century.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Tiny little bit of damage here, but you'd expect that.
0:12:40 > 0:12:44And this will sell all day long to the legions of doll,
0:12:44 > 0:12:47teddy collectors all over the place.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Thrilled to bits with this. Cheap at half the price.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54So that's £36.89 for the little chair,
0:12:54 > 0:12:57another quick fire purchase by The Hawk!
0:12:57 > 0:13:01Her archrival has been keeping an eye out for some vintage fashion,
0:13:01 > 0:13:03as challenged by his competitor.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05I know, I know, I'm looking good.
0:13:06 > 0:13:11But despite his little fashion show, he doesn't buy the jacket,
0:13:11 > 0:13:14and instead nets himself a fish dish at a nearby stall
0:13:14 > 0:13:16for a little under £33.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20It screams fish, lobster, fun, food.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22It's got a good look. It's in good condition.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Date wise, well, I'm going to have to guess.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28There's no marks on there. What is it? Probably '70s.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31It's got a bit of a '70s colour and theme to it which, again,
0:13:31 > 0:13:34is kind of trendy. So that's OK. 40 euros.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37But you know, in this game, you've got to take chances.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42Yes, he's a daring dealer! So our duo have been bagging bargains
0:13:42 > 0:13:45left, right and centre so far, but who's spent what?
0:13:45 > 0:13:49They each arrived in France with £750 worth of euros.
0:13:49 > 0:13:54David has made four deals so far, costing a penny under £291,
0:13:54 > 0:13:59leaving just over £459 still to spend.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Caroline also has four buys in the bag,
0:14:02 > 0:14:09but she's spent just over £225 so has nearly £525 left in her kitty.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12It's been a busy morning but our duo are unflustered.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16- Look at you looking all Parisian. - Thank you!- Are you loving it?
0:14:16 > 0:14:20- Loving it. How are you managing? - I'm doing all right, actually.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23I'm having a jolly good time. I've got a couple of things.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26- One I got a massive discount on. - Yeah.- Does that make you worried?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28No, not really, because I did just the same.
0:14:28 > 0:14:33- I got a fabulous item for half the ticket price.- Did you really?- Yeah.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- It makes me a little bit smug. - It makes you a bit special.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40- What about the challenge? - The challenge has been challenging.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43I'm quietly content with how it's gone so far, David.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45I'm so pleased for you.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48So why don't you go and be quietly content elsewhere
0:14:48 > 0:14:50and I'm going to go and buy something else.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52- OK.- OK.- Bon chance encore.
0:14:52 > 0:14:53Yeah, whatever that was.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57So with their French foraging fires reignited,
0:14:57 > 0:15:00our daring dealers throw themselves back into the race.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02They've both got plenty of cash to spend,
0:15:02 > 0:15:06and Devilish is quick to spot a set of oyster dishes.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07Bonjour, I'm David.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10- Bonjour.- I'm David. - Thank you.- Nice to meet you.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Do you speak English?
0:15:12 > 0:15:14- A little.- Oh, good. Good.- Tres peu.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Does that mean a little? Excellent! OK, I speak no French.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20- Can we do English? - Yes.- Let's do English. OK.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24- 50 euros. Tout le ensemble. - 50 euros all in.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27I'm just going to be reasonably impressive here.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Six piece.- Six piece.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34How about, get this, this is going to be
0:15:34 > 0:15:36so good you are going to be blown away.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39You are going to be amazed. 30 euros.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41- No. - HE LAUGHS
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Eh? What's gone wrong? What's happening?
0:15:44 > 0:15:4630? 35.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49- 35... Yes.- Yes. 35?- Yeah.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52- You know, you don't need to speak any lingo, do you?- Yes.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54THEY LAUGH
0:15:54 > 0:15:57So the oyster dishes cost David £28.69.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00Though he's a bit baffled at the preceding events.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02You know, I can safely say
0:16:02 > 0:16:06I have absolutely no idea what just happened.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10Somehow I now own this really interesting set.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13It's bright, it's breezy, it's cheerful,
0:16:13 > 0:16:17it's really out there and wild and wacky. Majolica. I love majolica.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Designed for scoffing oysters.
0:16:19 > 0:16:24And you know what? At 35 euros, that is fabulous.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Or as we say in France - wunderbar!
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Oh, dear! He's not quite fluent yet, is he?!
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Across the market, his hawk-eyed opponent has been
0:16:33 > 0:16:36prowling for profits, and she's spotted a leather suitcase.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39I think even I could get all my clothes for holiday in here.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42I'll see if I can talk to the guy that owns it.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46Excusez-moi, monsieur. Votre dernier prix, monsieur?
0:16:49 > 0:16:52Soixante quinze.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56Soixante quinze, that's 75.
0:16:56 > 0:16:5875 euros.
0:16:58 > 0:16:59- 70 euros?- OK.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Merci, monsieur.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05That's just over £49 for the suitcase,
0:17:05 > 0:17:06and a fifth buy for The Hawk.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11This is a beautiful, quality object. But it has lots of uses.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15If you don't want to fill it with clothes and go on your holiday,
0:17:15 > 0:17:19you could use it as a small coffee table. It's just a decorating piece.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22It needs a little bit of repair and lots of what they call in France
0:17:22 > 0:17:25cire. Or polish, wax.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Well, David, as you can see, I'm on the case.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30You might as well just pack it in.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Ooh. Fighting talk from The Hawk!
0:17:32 > 0:17:36So our daring duo are even-stevens now with five buys each,
0:17:36 > 0:17:38but as the end of the market approaches,
0:17:38 > 0:17:41they're both looking for one final item.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Something that will not only net them a prodigious profit,
0:17:44 > 0:17:47but also fits the bill for their inter-dealer challenge.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Caroline's on the hunt for something with an Asian flair,
0:17:50 > 0:17:52and she's spotted a likely contender.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Excusez moi, monsieur.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57IN FRENCH:
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Merci!
0:18:17 > 0:18:21The Hawk sweet talks her way to another discount
0:18:21 > 0:18:23and seals the deal at £65.57.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30How cool is this? I just love it.
0:18:30 > 0:18:341980s. I'm going to do a bit of research on the designer.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37But it has been sold in Paris and it's great.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41A little tip for those of you that are looking to buy vintage stuff.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45Look where you would expect damage - under the arms, sometimes staining
0:18:45 > 0:18:49under the arms with deodorant or perspiration, it's not a good thing.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51This is just about mint condition.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54MUSIC: Groove Is In The Heart by Deee-Lite
0:18:54 > 0:18:57And of course our fashionista of the fine arts
0:18:57 > 0:18:59can't resist a few model moves.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02# Groove is in the heart... #
0:19:02 > 0:19:05So The Hawk completes her challenge with an Oriental pattern jacket.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09But her archrival is still on the hunt for his own
0:19:09 > 0:19:11piece of collectible couture!
0:19:11 > 0:19:14I still haven't bought any vintage clothing.
0:19:14 > 0:19:19So I've now got to focus and find myself a little bit of vintage chic.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24MUSIC: Dedicated Follower of Fashion by The Kinks
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Looking good! And it's your colour. Mmm!
0:19:43 > 0:19:46But David decides the jacket isn't for him
0:19:46 > 0:19:49and with time running out to make his final purchase,
0:19:49 > 0:19:52he decides to give the designer handbags a once over.
0:19:52 > 0:19:57Well, Louis Vuitton. I mean, such a designer make.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01- It's a copy.- That's a copy?- Yes. - Ah, interesting.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03- This is original. - Original? Oh, my gosh!
0:20:03 > 0:20:06If I was to buy that, how much would that be for me?
0:20:08 > 0:20:10- It would be 100 euros. - 100 euros? OK.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13I've got to tell you, if I buy this and it turns out to be a fake,
0:20:13 > 0:20:16I'll just have to destroy it. So that's a risk.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20I'd take a chance on that. Can it be 70 euros?
0:20:23 > 0:20:24Shall we say oui?
0:20:24 > 0:20:27- Just for you.- Merci, monsieur.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31So Devilish seals the deal at 80 euros,
0:20:31 > 0:20:34which converts to £65.58.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Well, I think I've risen to the challenge.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39And the challenge was - buy some vintage clothing.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Well, it's not quite clothing but it's vintage and it's high-end.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44A Louis Vuitton handbag.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48Now, although I'm mega confident that this really is an original,
0:20:48 > 0:20:50of course I will delve deeper.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54And if it turns out that I'm wrong, and I could be, then that
0:20:54 > 0:20:58object suddenly becomes not worth 80 euros, it's literally worth nothing
0:20:58 > 0:21:01and should be thrown away.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04That's a bit of a gamble from Devilish,
0:21:04 > 0:21:08and with that, both our expat experts decide to call it a day.
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Let's tot up their totals.
0:21:11 > 0:21:16David and Caroline each arrived in Paris with a budget of £750.
0:21:16 > 0:21:22David leaves with six purchases costing £385.26.
0:21:22 > 0:21:26Caroline also did six deals, but she's spent a bit less,
0:21:26 > 0:21:28at just £340.16.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Before our duo head back to Blighty,
0:21:32 > 0:21:35they grab the chance to check out each other's wares.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Well, David, the spoils of war, here they are.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Doesn't that look joyous!
0:21:39 > 0:21:41It does. It looks
0:21:41 > 0:21:45an extraordinary, eclectic mix of everything.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48Madness, I would suggest to you. It looks brilliant.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- I tell you what, I'm in love with your boat.- Are you?
0:21:51 > 0:21:55I think that is so naff and dreadful, it's fantastic.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- And I love these.- Yes.- Oysters. Do you like oysters?
0:21:58 > 0:22:01No, I've had some terrible experiences with oysters.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- Oh, have you, David? - Dreadful experiences.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05You'll have to tell me some other time.
0:22:05 > 0:22:06You don't want to know.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08- So, the challenge.- Yes. - You've risen to it.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12I certainly have. There you go. It's not clothing but it's vintage.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15I have achieved the challenge.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19I can see that you have failed miserably.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Well, David, no. You need to look closer, don't you.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24There ain't anything Japanese or Chinese there, baby.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28- There was a bit of Oriental and a bit of vintage.- Where?
0:22:28 > 0:22:32- Look at the motif.- Unbelievable! - Clever or what?
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Too clever for your own good. Too clever.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38- I was chuffed to bits with that. - All right, you've done it as well.
0:22:38 > 0:22:39- And it looks great on.- OK.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41- Shall we get back to old Blighty? - Let's.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44Are we going to do the train or shall we do the boat?
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Oh, let's take the boat.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48- I tell you what, you take the boat and I'll do the train. Bye!- Bye!
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Now our dealers need to steady their nerves and head home
0:22:53 > 0:22:56to plan the next phase of their profit quest.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59They must find buyers for all their Parisian treasures,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02and call on all their expertise to secure top drawer prices,
0:23:02 > 0:23:06and make as much profit as possible for their chosen charities.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11David's back at Devilish HQ near Durham,
0:23:11 > 0:23:13but he's left his heart in France.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17I can honestly tell you that was the most fun I've had on
0:23:17 > 0:23:19a buying trip abroad ever.
0:23:19 > 0:23:24It was just a perfect trip. This clock blows my mind.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26It's just amazing.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29Not quite sure where I'm going to go with it yet,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31so my brain is whirring overtime.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35A couple of objects I know exactly where I'm going to.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Well, we've got the oyster dishes and the fish pot here.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42So I'm heading to a fish restaurant to offer them
0:23:42 > 0:23:46both objects. Now what about that brass boot pull?
0:23:46 > 0:23:48I'm thinking of top-end cobblers.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51People that make really expensive shoes
0:23:51 > 0:23:53would love that as a shop display.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57Onto the bag. Well, this is always going to split opinions, isn't it?
0:23:57 > 0:24:01I've been up almost all night and I've done all my own checks
0:24:01 > 0:24:05and I'm pretty confident that this really is the real McCoy.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08We'll double-check but so far, I'm pretty happy
0:24:08 > 0:24:09and very excited.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13He also needs to find a buyer for his light fittings.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Over in East Yorkshire, The Hawk is assessing her treasures.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Now I'm back home, the things I bought in Paris
0:24:19 > 0:24:21have not disappointed me.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23This little chair is great.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27And I'm thinking along the lines of doll, teddy dealers for this.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Or even collectors.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32Now, the boat is a very different kettle of fish.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36The person that buys this is not going to be an ordinary Joe Bloggs.
0:24:36 > 0:24:43This stick stand is great. I want to find a smart cane, umbrella dealer.
0:24:43 > 0:24:48This would look great on their stand in a very smart antiques fair.
0:24:48 > 0:24:53And what else did I...? Uh, yeah. This. This wonderful jacket.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56If I can get it off my back, this will sell easily.
0:24:56 > 0:25:02It epitomises all that is 1980s - chic, colourful, Parisian.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05I can't wait to mix with the fashionistas
0:25:05 > 0:25:06that are going to buy this.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Caroline also needs to sell her leather suitcase
0:25:09 > 0:25:11and wooden hat brim mould.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Our two brave profiteers need all their strength
0:25:14 > 0:25:17and ingenuity as they get their selling sprees under way.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20Every last penny of profit counts, and remember,
0:25:20 > 0:25:23until they've shaken on it, no deal is ever sealed.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28In Barnard Castle, David gets straight down to business,
0:25:28 > 0:25:31and takes that designer handbag to show Clare,
0:25:31 > 0:25:33owner of a local fashion boutique.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37It's nice to get the opportunity to handle something like this.
0:25:37 > 0:25:43- This is just nice.- You just see that. It says, "AR1000."
0:25:43 > 0:25:47AR stands for France. And 1000 is the date code.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51The first two numbers, 10, is the month.
0:25:51 > 0:25:56And the last two is the year. So that was made in October 2000.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59This is just nice. I mean, how do you define it?
0:25:59 > 0:26:04It's the quality and width of the strap. It's the stitching.
0:26:04 > 0:26:09- It's the wear. It's the smell. It's the touch.- Yeah.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14I think I can tempt you. I think you are going to really like it. 125.
0:26:14 > 0:26:19- £125?! I genuinely do believe it's the real thing.- Yeah.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22- But I have a figure in my mind. - What is it?
0:26:22 > 0:26:24- 75.- 75?- Yeah.
0:26:24 > 0:26:30- No! 120.- I will be pushed to 80 and consider ownership.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34£100. That will give me 20-odd pounds profit.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38You've shown me something lovely and it is something I would like to own.
0:26:38 > 0:26:43- £85.- Oh, my goodness gracious!
0:26:43 > 0:26:45I can't leave with the bag.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48We're just going to play games now and just call it 90, aren't we?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Go on. Clare, you are an absolute...
0:26:50 > 0:26:54- nightmare.- Thank you!
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Yes, David has certainly earned his dealing dues there,
0:26:57 > 0:27:00and kicks off his profits by £24.42.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04Over in Harrogate,
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Caroline is about to undertake a fashion challenge of her own.
0:27:07 > 0:27:11I'm here seeing if my wonderful piece of Parisian chic
0:27:11 > 0:27:16is going to go down well in uber cool Montpellier Street, Harrogate.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Wish me luck.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20MUSIC: Clothes Show Theme
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Oh, this is turning into the Clothes Show!
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Our fashionista spent nearly £65 on the jacket,
0:27:24 > 0:27:27time to unveil it to vintage clothing dealer Linda.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Hi. How are you?
0:27:29 > 0:27:32- I'm fine, thank you.- I've brought a little something to show you.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- All the way from Paris. - Oh, that's nice!
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Isn't that lovely! 1980s. Beautiful.
0:27:37 > 0:27:43Marina Sithon pour Kamosho, which is a Japanese make.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47From Paris. I think it's hardly been worn, you know.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52- It's in really good condition. - You can always tell with the cuffs.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55And the neck and things. Yeah. No.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59There's no crease in there so it's been hung very well.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02I'm going to show you it at its best. Wait there.
0:28:06 > 0:28:10- So, Linda, what do you think? - I think it's fantastic.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14Would you be able to pay 130 for it?
0:28:14 > 0:28:17Um, I'd go 110.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19- Cos I have to resell it.- Yeah.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23Could you go 120 and split the difference?
0:28:23 > 0:28:27Um, yes, I think so, because I think that will sell.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30Thank you very much, Linda. Thank you.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Do I have to take it off now?
0:28:32 > 0:28:33Yes, you do!
0:28:33 > 0:28:36So The Hawk says a sad goodbye to the jacket
0:28:36 > 0:28:41but secures a very colourful £54.43 profit.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44She also finds a buyer for her leather suitcase,
0:28:44 > 0:28:48selling it to an antiques dealer in Harrogate for £90.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Fantastic, thank you very much.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Packing herself a £40.82 profit.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Now, Devilish is a big fan of keeping things local,
0:28:58 > 0:29:02but now he's leaving the safe confines of Barnard Castle behind.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05MUSIC: Thomas The Tank Engine Theme
0:29:05 > 0:29:08Well, I've sold the designer handbag.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12But all of my other Parisian purchases have got London
0:29:12 > 0:29:15written all over them. So here I am.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19I'm jumping on the train and heading south to maximise those profits.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24Well, David's thinking bright lights, big city, big profits!
0:29:24 > 0:29:28While he gets on the train, Caroline's got her glad rags on.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30All in the pursuit of a deal!
0:29:30 > 0:29:32Here we go.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34She's brought her nautical bar to a party thrown
0:29:34 > 0:29:37by her friends Pip and Barry.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40Welcome aboard. Can I offer you a drink?
0:29:40 > 0:29:44And having spent £55 getting it rewired and another
0:29:44 > 0:29:49£10 on cocktail supplies, her spend stands at nearly £188.
0:29:49 > 0:29:50Here's hoping it's smooth sailing.

0:29:53 > 0:29:571950s. Absolutely fantastic. I bought it in Paris. Saint-Ouen.
0:29:57 > 0:30:02A little quartier of Paris that specialises in rather retro things.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05- Yes.- Baby, baby. - Yeah, I like it. I like it.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07How much is it?
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Well, I was hoping for 325.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13- 150 quid.- Oh! Oh!
0:30:13 > 0:30:16- You wound me.- It's half a boat. - You wound me, Barry.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19Half a boat is better than none. I like the look of it.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21I'll offer you £200.
0:30:21 > 0:30:26Just because I'm a kind-hearted Yorkshire lass, I'm going
0:30:26 > 0:30:28to let you have it at 295.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32- We will do a deal. We will do a deal.- 295!
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Barry. Come on, let's party on.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39Yes. She's done it!
0:30:39 > 0:30:44Caroline walks away with a fizzing profit of over £107!
0:30:44 > 0:30:47While she heads home to sleep off her success, David's preparing
0:30:47 > 0:30:52to take London by storm, and where better to start than the West End.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56This is Mayfair.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59My gosh, one of the poshest areas
0:30:59 > 0:31:02and one of the finest restaurants in the city.
0:31:02 > 0:31:07This is where the lords and the ladies of London come to dine.
0:31:07 > 0:31:08Perfect for me.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11MUSIC: West End Girls by Pet Shop Boys
0:31:11 > 0:31:15So, 'Lord David' has sent his two seafood themed buys
0:31:15 > 0:31:18ahead to the restaurant. The fish pot, which cost nearly £33,
0:31:18 > 0:31:22and those oyster dishes, which were nearly 29.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26Will they tingle the taste buds of owner, Gavin, and head chef, Stefan?
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Are you delighted to see my wares, Gavin?
0:31:29 > 0:31:33- Yes, well, they are different. Unusual.- Yeah.
0:31:33 > 0:31:37- This is very much... - Oyster dishes are normally plain.
0:31:37 > 0:31:42But I don't think you've ever been described as a plain person, Gavin.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44No, true.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47- True.- This is majolica.
0:31:47 > 0:31:51So it's that typical, very bright, colourful pottery.
0:31:51 > 0:31:57No fantastic age to it but very lovely. Hand decorated. Hand potted.
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Are they the kind of things that you might use,
0:31:59 > 0:32:01obviously for special occasions?
0:32:01 > 0:32:04It's a bit of a pass on these, I'm afraid.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07- It doesn't really fit with what we do.- OK. OK.
0:32:07 > 0:32:09- To be absolutely honest.- OK.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11It's OK. What about the fish pot?
0:32:11 > 0:32:14- The fish pot.- Yeah. - That's more interesting.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18- That's much more interesting.- OK. - Tell me a bit about this.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- Bought from the same fair.- Yes.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23From the same stall.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25In sunny Paris.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29- I love the decoration. Love the fish.- I do too.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32I'm just sort of interested where it might have come from.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34It's certainly Continental.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36Stefan, this is from your part of the world here.
0:32:36 > 0:32:39This is taking you down memory lane, isn't it?
0:32:39 > 0:32:42Yes, a bit further south than where I live, I guess.
0:32:42 > 0:32:48But, yeah, it's good. It's good for Gavin's place.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50I think we can find a use for it, you know.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53- £60.- £60?- Yeah.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57What do you think?
0:32:57 > 0:33:00- For £50 is nice. - He likes the sound of 50.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03We'll give the man 55. He is upset enough about the...
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- We'll give him 55.- Are you happy?
0:33:06 > 0:33:07Is that a deal? Fantastic.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09- Thank you, chaps.- You're welcome. - Absolute pleasure.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12Well, he may have only shifted one of his items,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15but that's a profit of just over £22 on the fish dish.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18So at the halfway stage, let's take a look at the numbers.
0:33:20 > 0:33:27David has so far struck two deals, and made a modest profit of £46.63.
0:33:27 > 0:33:33But Caroline has snatched an early lead, with three sales made
0:33:33 > 0:33:35and a profit of £202.30.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40It may be far from level pegging but with four items
0:33:40 > 0:33:43still to sell, David isn't rolling over any time soon!
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Between appointments,
0:33:45 > 0:33:47he's making the most of his trip to the capital.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49MUSIC: London Calling by The Clash
0:33:49 > 0:33:51But it's not all sightseeing and selfies,
0:33:51 > 0:33:54David is here on the hunt for some top London-size profits.
0:33:54 > 0:33:55Next stop - Soho.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00You're just not going to believe this place.
0:34:00 > 0:34:04I've only recently discovered it. Right in the middle of Soho.
0:34:04 > 0:34:05It's mind-blowing.
0:34:05 > 0:34:10And they sell items, as you can see, just like mine.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12But by the thousands.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15I've come to see the owner, Ronald. He's upstairs in the workshop.
0:34:15 > 0:34:16Let's go and find him.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22Crikey, this is a tight fit, but full of treasure.
0:34:22 > 0:34:27David's Parisian lights cost him over £65. Time to turn on the charm.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30I knew I'd find you in here, Ronald.
0:34:30 > 0:34:33- Hello, David. Nice to see you again. - Good to see you as well.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- Are you busy?- Yes, we are fairly busy at the moment.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Just doing a lot of restoration for one or two important buildings.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44- They are quite interesting. - I knew I would grab his attention.
0:34:44 > 0:34:49Now, I bought these in Paris. I'm dating them circa 1900.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52I want to try and sell these to you, Ronald, obviously.
0:34:52 > 0:34:56The only question is, what are you asking for them?
0:34:56 > 0:34:59I was thinking 250. Is that too much?
0:34:59 > 0:35:02Well, in the condition, I...
0:35:02 > 0:35:06We would have thought we could compromise and said,
0:35:06 > 0:35:10provisionally, a couple of hundred. I would be perfectly happy.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Cos I've got a lot of renovation to do.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14If we agreed 200, I'm happy with that.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17- We've got a deal.- Good. - And I suppose you want a cheque now.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20I want a cheque before you change your mind.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22Devilish nearly doubles his money,
0:35:22 > 0:35:26and walks away with a glowing profit of £134.43.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Next on his profit quest is that clock sign,
0:35:31 > 0:35:34and he's brought it to the boutiques of West London.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37Well, what a lovely day to try and sell a clock face.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40Here I am on Church Street in Marylebone, London.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44The perfect place to sell something like this. It's very industrial.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47It's architectural. It's very designer-y.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49There are humongous amounts of shops down the street
0:35:49 > 0:35:52and I'm going to go and see them all.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54Until I find someone to give me some money.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00David pounds the West London pavements for the next few hours
0:36:00 > 0:36:02but it seems no-one's buying!
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Oh, dear.
0:36:06 > 0:36:10I can't believe it. No, no, no, no, no.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13All the way up and down the street. Now the clouds are coming in.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16I'm going to get drenched. What an ending to a horrific time.
0:36:16 > 0:36:22MUSIC: Why Does It Always Rain On Me by Travis
0:36:22 > 0:36:26The heavens open on poor Harper and he bids a hasty retreat.
0:36:26 > 0:36:31Having paid over £184 for the sign, if he doesn't find a buyer
0:36:31 > 0:36:34it could lose him today's Put Your Money crown.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37Caroline has also been braving the elements up north.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39She's on the rainy Yorkshire coast
0:36:39 > 0:36:43and has sold her petit Parisian chair to doll collector Judy.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46- Brilliant, thank you very much. - Thank you very much.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Pocketing herself another £18.11 profit.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54And now she's come south to Reading with her hat brim mould.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57She's hoping milliner Jane will give her a good return
0:36:57 > 0:36:59on the £16 purchase price.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02Hello, Jane, how are you?
0:37:02 > 0:37:04- Very well, thank you.- Do you want to see this hat brim mould?
0:37:04 > 0:37:08Gosh, yes, I do. Cos you know what I've been using, don't you?
0:37:08 > 0:37:10- What is that?- A bit of polystyrene.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12It's like a picture frame.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14This is a rimmed hat I made from it.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16That's how I moulded the brim for that.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20- Right.- But then I had to wire it and twist it because it isn't oval.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23- Right.- It's not a head shape.- No. I've got something that is.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27That is absolutely just what I wanted!
0:37:27 > 0:37:29- It's beautiful!- Isn't it gorgeous?!
0:37:29 > 0:37:31And it's a nice shape. I like that.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35You stretch your material, whatever you are using, over the hat wet.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37You stretch it over and you pin it, you stretch it
0:37:37 > 0:37:39and you pin it till you get the shape you want.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42Then you iron it and dry it on the mould.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44Then let it set.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47I think this dates from probably 1910-1920. Would you agree?
0:37:47 > 0:37:51I would say this is coming out of the Victorian period.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54- Not quite into the full-blown Edwardian.- Yes.
0:37:54 > 0:37:56- It's on that cusp.- Yes. Yeah.
0:37:56 > 0:38:00- This, I don't know what you paid for this...- Nothing, I was given it.
0:38:00 > 0:38:04Gosh! This is a bit more expensive than nothing.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06What about 75?
0:38:08 > 0:38:10- Yes.- Brilliant!
0:38:10 > 0:38:15Well, that was easy, and The Hawk makes a profit of £58.61.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18More than quadrupling her money!
0:38:18 > 0:38:21And she crosses the finish line when she sells her 19th-century
0:38:21 > 0:38:26umbrella stand to a smart gentleman's outfitters in London.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29105 and you've got yourself a deal.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31For you...
0:38:31 > 0:38:32Thank you.
0:38:32 > 0:38:38Adding a final £55.82 to her balance sheet.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40Devilish needs to pull his selling socks up
0:38:40 > 0:38:42if he's going to catch his rival!
0:38:42 > 0:38:46So I've brought my boot pull right to the heart of Mayfair.
0:38:46 > 0:38:50To buy a pair of boots or a pair of shoes to fit your feet
0:38:50 > 0:38:55absolutely perfectly here will cost you
0:38:55 > 0:39:01about 500 times the price I paid for my boot pull.
0:39:01 > 0:39:07And as that was just over £8, we're talking upwards of £4,000.
0:39:07 > 0:39:11Jonathan, very, very good to meet you.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13How long would it take to make a pair of shoes?
0:39:13 > 0:39:17If someone was to walk in the door we quote about six to eight months.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19We have to make a pair of lasts...
0:39:19 > 0:39:22What is a pair of lasts? Is it like a mould?
0:39:22 > 0:39:24- This is a pair of lasts.- OK.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27This is made from the measurements we take from each individual
0:39:27 > 0:39:31- customer's foot. David Niven.- Right.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- I didn't meet him myself but Frank Sinatra.- Frank Sinatra!
0:39:34 > 0:39:37By the look of those, Jonathan,
0:39:37 > 0:39:40it looks like he's had several pairs of shoes made.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42I think they were fairly well used.
0:39:42 > 0:39:43I'm hoping to interest you,
0:39:43 > 0:39:48to impress you maybe with...I've called it a boot pull.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52- It's a boot jack.- Boot jack, OK.
0:39:52 > 0:39:56It's designed obviously to get the heel of your boot in.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58OK, so you step on it. That's right.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00You step on it.
0:40:00 > 0:40:01You stick your heel in there.
0:40:01 > 0:40:02It helps you to pull it off.
0:40:02 > 0:40:05It's quite smooth. It doesn't damage the shoe.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08So it's a useful thing to keep in the hallway?
0:40:08 > 0:40:10- Yeah. And it's attractive, isn't it? - Yeah.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Age wise, I mean, I'm guessing it's probably 50 years old.
0:40:13 > 0:40:18- It's a good quality thing. There is no doubt about it.- Give me a price.
0:40:18 > 0:40:19OK, £70.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23That is not unreasonable. I think you've got yourself your £70.
0:40:23 > 0:40:24- Fantastic.- Congratulations.
0:40:24 > 0:40:31So our Durham dandy netted himself a well-heeled profit of £61.80.
0:40:31 > 0:40:35That ends David's London jaunt on a high, and he finally finds
0:40:35 > 0:40:38a buyer for those oyster dishes too, selling them to a private collector
0:40:38 > 0:40:43back in Barnard Castle for £40, making him £11.31 profit.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48So now the end is finally in sight.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51Caroline was out in the lead but did David manage to find
0:40:51 > 0:40:53a buyer for his clock sign
0:40:53 > 0:40:56and snatch the trophy at the last minute?
0:40:56 > 0:40:58All will soon be revealed!
0:40:59 > 0:41:04Both our experts took £750 worth of euros over to Paris.
0:41:04 > 0:41:10David bought six items and spent £385.26.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16Caroline also bought six items, and including the restoration costs
0:41:16 > 0:41:20for the bar, she spent £405.16.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22But what about the profits?
0:41:22 > 0:41:25All the money that Caroline and David have made
0:41:25 > 0:41:28from today's challenge will go to charities of their choice.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31So the wait is over, it's finally time to reveal who is today's
0:41:31 > 0:41:35Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Champion.
0:41:35 > 0:41:36Hello, David.
0:41:36 > 0:41:40- Never mind hello. Bonjour. - Bonjour. Mais oui!
0:41:40 > 0:41:42Oh, hello! How was it for you?
0:41:42 > 0:41:46It was great. It would be, wouldn't it? I'm such a Francophile.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49You are. You just blend in like a native, don't you?
0:41:49 > 0:41:54My favourite item was a ship bar. A bar in the shape of a ship.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56- It was brilliant. - And I did well with it.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59- I'm really pleased with that. - Fantastic.- What about you?
0:41:59 > 0:42:03My Parisian trip took me to London with that funny little brass
0:42:03 > 0:42:06- boot pull.- Oh, gosh.- Exactly. That took me on a journey.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08A memorable journey.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10It's been a brill-o! Have you made loads of money?
0:42:10 > 0:42:16I think, with my added advantage of a little bit of parlez-vous Francais...
0:42:16 > 0:42:20- The lingo.- Yeah. I think I'm quietly confident of this one.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Are you really? Do you think you've got me?
0:42:22 > 0:42:24- I think I have got you. - Is that your prediction?
0:42:24 > 0:42:27- Yeah, be afraid. Be very afraid. - I'm not afraid at all.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29- OK, are you ready?- Yes. Un...
0:42:29 > 0:42:31- Deux...- Trois.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35- Oh, no, you've done it!- Oh, yes!
0:42:35 > 0:42:37You cheeky little monkey, madam.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40- Ooh!- How do you say congratulations in French?
0:42:40 > 0:42:41Felicitations.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44- Felicitations.- Merci, David.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47So just £65 in it!
0:42:47 > 0:42:50David did sell his clock sign to an antiques enthusiast
0:42:50 > 0:42:53in Barnard Castle, but at £200 it only made him
0:42:53 > 0:42:59just £15.57 profit. Not quite enough to catch his rival.
0:42:59 > 0:43:03My French is absolutely diabolical and you know what,
0:43:03 > 0:43:06I really should have tried harder at school.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09No surprises here. I really did expect to win this one.
0:43:09 > 0:43:13Speaking the lingo really does help.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16David gets another chance to take The Hawk down tomorrow,
0:43:16 > 0:43:20when they go into battle again at an antiques fair in Kent.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23Wow, what a good-looking fellow, don't you think?
