0:00:50 > 0:00:54Coming up, David gets stood up by Lady Luck.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57No! No! Lord!
0:00:57 > 0:00:59My life is over.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Caroline's riding away to victory.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03On your bike, Harper.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05And David goes on a wild profit hunt.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10I am being done. You've been done. We've all been done.
0:01:10 > 0:01:11Well done.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12DONKEY BRAYS
0:01:12 > 0:01:15This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Today, we're in Kent, and the Garden of England,
0:01:33 > 0:01:36for another competitive curio contest.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40Our daring duo will be playing a game of antiques cat and mouse

0:01:42 > 0:01:45and decipher the clues to get to the best bargains
0:01:45 > 0:01:46and the biggest profits.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51In one corner, it's the mischievous Moriarty of Durham.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54A man with a degree in the dark art of dealing,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57there's nothing he won't do in the pursuit of victory.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01It's the sharp suited, silver tongued...
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Mwah-ha-ha-ha!
0:02:03 > 0:02:08But his adversary today is the snooping Sherlock of the saleroom.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12A woman who can spot an antique at 50 paces, with her eyes closed!
0:02:12 > 0:02:14All the way from Hull,
0:02:14 > 0:02:16it's the vanguard of vintage...
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Elementary, my dear dealers!
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Today's collectibles crime scene is Detling antiques fair
0:02:25 > 0:02:26at Maidstone in Kent.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30Our experts each have £750 of their own money to spend, and they're
0:02:30 > 0:02:34here to make as much profit as possible for their chosen charities.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36So let battle commence.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39David Harper and Caroline Hawley, it's time to
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- Good morning.- Good morning.- Hello.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50It's a bit grotty but it's quite lovely, isn't it, here in Detling?
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Grey but lovely. Yes. I've never been to this one before, have you?
0:02:53 > 0:02:54You know, I don't know, Caroline.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57They all seem to roll into one, don't they?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- They do all look a bit the same! - And you see the same faces as well.
0:03:00 > 0:03:01You do. People travel.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03All over. And that's what I love about this business.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05They are on the road, wheeling and dealing.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07- It's almost medieval, isn't it? - Yeah.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- We've got £750.- We have. - Yeah. Of loving to give.- Yeah.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14- Can't wait to start giving it.- Spread the love.- I will race you, then.
0:03:14 > 0:03:15Can you run OK in your Adam Ant outfit?
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- I can indeed, David.- OK, let's see you do it then.- Come on.- Go!
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Well, it's time for Caroline to stand and deliver her
0:03:22 > 0:03:23best profit-hunting skills,
0:03:23 > 0:03:26as she tries to outwit her Devilish opponent!
0:03:26 > 0:03:29The antiques fair is already bustling with bargain hunters,
0:03:29 > 0:03:32and with 400 stalls spread inside and out,
0:03:32 > 0:03:36our daring duo need concrete plans of attack.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40The sun's come out and I've decided to stay outside with it.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43I always prefer being outside, rain or shine.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46I think the dealers outside are more prepared to do a deal,
0:03:46 > 0:03:49more prepared to haggle, they are here to sell it.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Inside, it's all a bit too smart and set up for me.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56This is my natural habitat. And I'm going to go and bag myself a bargain.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59So the Hawk is staying alfresco.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02But Devilish Harper has headed straight inside.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06You know, I've got to say, I just love antique fairs.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Look around you! We are surrounded by fabulous things.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Half my job has already been done.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17All I've got to do is choose the objects I particularly love.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20He makes it sound like a profit pick 'n' mix!
0:04:20 > 0:04:23And our dealing dandy soon makes his first selection.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Ah, you know, some stalls shout out at me.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29And this one is shouting loud and clear.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33There are several objects I love already, but one particular piece...
0:04:33 > 0:04:38Can you guess which object I am in love with already?
0:04:38 > 0:04:39I'm going to go to it.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44MUSIC: Look Of Love by ABC
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Isn't that just drop-dead gorgeous?
0:04:46 > 0:04:48What do you know about this?
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- It's not that old.- No, it isn't. That's the downside, isn't it?
0:04:54 > 0:04:58- But in perfect condition.- OK. Good. - And it's got the look.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00It's got the look. It's got the look.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03The Chinese have been making ginger jars like this for hundreds
0:05:03 > 0:05:07of years. This is sort of giving the impression, with the ring
0:05:07 > 0:05:11mark on the base, that it might come from the Kangxi period.
0:05:11 > 0:05:131670 to 1710 or thereabouts.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17It's a really clever reproduction.
0:05:17 > 0:05:22It's not trying to con anybody at all. It's a decorator's piece.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24And look how the lid doesn't fit.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28You can see that the lid for this should really be bigger
0:05:28 > 0:05:32and cover that unglazed area. And it's very clever
0:05:32 > 0:05:35because when things were made in abundance hundreds of years ago,
0:05:35 > 0:05:40mainly for the Western market, they were shipped in separate boxes.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44The bodies would come in one box and the lids would come in other boxes.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47And that is where you get the saying "potluck" from.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51You would take the pot lid and you would be very lucky if you found a
0:05:51 > 0:05:55pot lid that actually fitted the pot perfectly.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58So we have taken potluck and the lid does not fit.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03It's never going to be an absolute fortune. How much is it to me?
0:06:04 > 0:06:09- The price on there at the moment is 80.- I would like to see it at 40.
0:06:09 > 0:06:14- Right.- I think at 40 it is a quick turnaround and I can make a small
0:06:14 > 0:06:18profit, to a decorator. How do you feel?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Help me get nearer to 50.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22I'll go 45.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- 45.- OK, quick-fire purchase. Thank you very much.- You're welcome.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31It seems you can put a price on love. It's £45.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33It's getting a bit stuffy in here.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36I think outdoors. And we will go and see what the Hawk is up to.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Well, you'd better be quick, Harper, as your rival is being a true
0:06:40 > 0:06:44collectibles cowgirl and she's rounding up a little wooden wagon.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Oh, I just think they are gorgeous.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Hello. Hi.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51What would be your very, very, very best price?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Hmm...
0:06:54 > 0:06:58- 55.- Can you wobble a little bit further with the price?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01- Uh...- Just a little bit.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02It's really difficult.
0:07:02 > 0:07:08- 45 and you have a deal.- Well, as it's you, my dear...- 45?- Yes.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10- Thank you.- You are welcome.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15She's a sweet talkin' haggler, if ever we saw one!
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Well, I'm delighted with this little cart.
0:07:19 > 0:07:25£45. 20 years ago, I was selling these for way over £100.
0:07:25 > 0:07:30It's in great condition. It's got all the iron round all the wheels.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34It's fantastic. Tiny bit of woodworm but you'd expect it to be.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38It's soft wood. It really is lovely.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42And I can think of thousands of people who would snap this up.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46Well, Devilish hasn't caught up to her yet and the Hawk moves fast
0:07:46 > 0:07:48and seals the deal on a second item,
0:07:48 > 0:07:53a wooden dressing screen for £40 and it's got her pulse racing!
0:07:53 > 0:07:56This is fabulous. In all the years I've been dealing,
0:07:56 > 0:07:59I've never had a screen of this ilk.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02It harks from the Art Deco period
0:08:02 > 0:08:06and it really is a very stylish dressing screen.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10The only type of embellishment that this has got is this small
0:08:10 > 0:08:13string inlay down here.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16The price, £40, is ridiculous.
0:08:16 > 0:08:21And speaking of ridiculous, Devilish has his eye on a familiar face.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25Wow, what a good-looking fellow, don't you think?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Yes. I'm not sure everyone agrees with you, Devilish.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- DOG WHINES - But you better get back in the game
0:08:30 > 0:08:33as your rival has two buys in the bag
0:08:33 > 0:08:35and she's going for the hat-trick!
0:08:35 > 0:08:39The Hawk's been circling a bicycle that's got a £100 price tag.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40# Bicycle! #
0:08:40 > 0:08:43I've bought these before at around 50.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Really?- No offence to you, but, yeah, I have.- No, not at all.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47# Bicycle! #
0:08:47 > 0:08:49What is your absolute death on it?
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- 70.- No, I can't go to 70. I've...
0:08:53 > 0:08:57I've got to make a little bit of profit on it. It's got to be 50.
0:08:57 > 0:08:58You drive a hard bargain.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00I'll drive it away now.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01# Bicycle! #
0:09:01 > 0:09:03We are looking at your bike?
0:09:03 > 0:09:07This lovely lady only wants to pay £50 for the bike.
0:09:07 > 0:09:0955.
0:09:09 > 0:09:1255? Only if you buy a cupcake.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16I would be delighted to buy a cupcake. 55 and a cupcake.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Go on, then, it's yours.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22Thank you. Thank you. Lovely doing business with you.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25# I want to ride my bicycle... #
0:09:25 > 0:09:28So she get's the bike at just over half the asking price,
0:09:28 > 0:09:30even with the cost of a cake.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34British racing green. BSA. 1960s. I love it.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35Look at all this chrome going on.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39Needs a little bit of a polish up, but it's wonderful. Basket.
0:09:39 > 0:09:45Original panniers. £55 plus two quid for a little sweetener.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46Brilliant.
0:09:46 > 0:09:473-1 to the Hawk.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51And she can't resist giving her new wheels a quick road test.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53On your bike, Harper.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Oooh! LOUD CRASH
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Yes. Maybe she should stick to just dealing.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02So while Caroline dusts herself down, Devilish has spotted
0:10:02 > 0:10:05a pair of retro armchairs and he's taken the novel approach
0:10:05 > 0:10:07of trying to sell them to the seller.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11So these chairs were cheap in the '70s or '80s.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13There were made by the bucket-load.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15But most have been dumped on skips
0:10:15 > 0:10:19and those that have survived have suddenly become trendy.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22I've got to think first of all, where would I go with these?
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Are they 20 quid each?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27I was looking at about 140 for the pair.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29HE CHOKES
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- Don't be silly.- 140?! - For the pair.- Seriously?
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Nice '70s chairs.- I know. But nah.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- I'll come down a bit. You come... - Where will you go to?
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- Will you go to 80? - As it's you, I'll do 80.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Go on, then, you're a dreamboat. Marvellous.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47That's a mighty discount again. Nicely done, Harper.
0:10:49 > 0:10:55Welcome to my world of late 20th-century uber cool design.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58I was drawn to these chairs mainly because they are a pair.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01A single would be a bit dull and boring.
0:11:01 > 0:11:06But a pair of anything is much rarer and much more desirable.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10Right now, these things are red hot.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13So the sizzling chairs are Devilish's second deal of the day.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16And the temperature's rising all round.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Well, this is getting perfect now.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Lots of lovely, yummy stuff.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25And the sun is out. Where is my man?
0:11:28 > 0:11:29Got to have a man.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Indeed. So while David enjoys the sunshine,
0:11:32 > 0:11:34let's take a look at the books!
0:11:36 > 0:11:40Our bounty hunters each arrived with £750 of their own money.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45David has bought just two items so far and spent £125,
0:11:45 > 0:11:49leaving him £625 to play with.
0:11:49 > 0:11:54Caroline has gone one better with three deals done, costing £142.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58That leaves her £608 still to spend.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Before their buying bonanza continues,
0:12:01 > 0:12:05it appears Devilish has finally tracked down the Hawk.
0:12:05 > 0:12:06How is the concert going?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08I mean, sorry, the buying, the antique buying?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11- I'm doing rather well.- So am I. - I am quietly smug with myself.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13I got quite a few items. Mixed bag of things.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16All sorts of weird and wonderful things.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- But on the whole, I'm thrilled. - There is so much here.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24I mean, just look around you. 360 degrees of stuff.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- And a lot of it is just bonkers. It's wonderfully bonkers.- It is.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- We do bonkers, don't we?- Yeah, we do. Very well, David.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Shall we go and do some more bonkers?- Yeah, let's.- Come on then.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Well, that's one word for it!
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Maybe this sunshine's going to our dealers' heads!
0:12:36 > 0:12:39With plenty of cash to spend on more bonkers bargains,
0:12:39 > 0:12:41they throw themselves back into the buying,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44but has Caroline's confidence unnerved her rival?
0:12:45 > 0:12:49This kind of environment is exactly where Caroline feels
0:12:49 > 0:12:50completely at home.
0:12:50 > 0:12:56This is where she started her trading career 522 years ago.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00This girl has an awful lot of experience.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03She's going to be a really tough cookie to beat.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05That's the Hawk for you, David,
0:13:05 > 0:13:08she's got a devilish streak of her own!
0:13:08 > 0:13:12The Baron of Barnard Castle is always ready for battle though,
0:13:12 > 0:13:14and he's eyeing up some armour!
0:13:14 > 0:13:16So what have we got interesting?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18- Pith helmet.- 40 quid, I think.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20But we can do you a deal.
0:13:20 > 0:13:21OK. Can it be £20?
0:13:21 > 0:13:24It's already marked up at 40. You are smiling.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25You know how cheeky that is.
0:13:25 > 0:13:2725.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30No, sir. It's a very kind offer but unfortunately,
0:13:30 > 0:13:33because it's for friends, I'm going to have to stick with 30.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36All right. £30. My very first pith helmet. Thank you very much, madam.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38- Thank you.- Lovely. - Thank you very much.- OK.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Fantastic. Isn't that interesting?
0:13:41 > 0:13:42And I look great.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47So Harper continues his stall safari.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Well, you know, for someone who spent his formative years
0:13:51 > 0:13:55living in Africa, and with a brother who's had a mad fascination with
0:13:55 > 0:14:00pith helmets all his life, I don't know anything about pith helmets.
0:14:00 > 0:14:05Now this is my opportunity to discover all there is to know.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07And donning his new headwear,
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Colonel Harper is back on the hunt for the opposition.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13This is absolutely ridiculous.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17Looking everywhere for the Hawk. She's nowhere to be seen.
0:14:17 > 0:14:21But the Hawk is always one move ahead. And she's got her
0:14:21 > 0:14:23eye on a kitsch coffee table.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24It's 1950s, isn't it?
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- Yeah, about that.- Quite nice. What sort of price are you looking for?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30- I'm looking for around 70.- 70?!
0:14:30 > 0:14:35- 70.- 70?!- That's not finalised. - Are you having a laugh?
0:14:35 > 0:14:3670.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Can I make you a cheeky offer?
0:14:38 > 0:14:4135 it's worth to me. I've got to sell it on.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- I can do you 40.- 40. Go on. You've got yourself a deal.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46- No worries. Thank you.- Thank you.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48So Caroline seals the deal at nearly half the price.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50And while the Hawk buys retro,
0:14:50 > 0:14:54her Devilish rival is proving he's not one to play it safe.
0:14:54 > 0:14:59This is a 'love it or hate it'. Or even 'hate it or despise it' moment.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01- Would you agree...? - Or they are grotesque.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04- Do you think they are grotesque? - They are gorgeous.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06I love them. Yeah. I adore them.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08This, I suppose, is southern European.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11So it is, strictly speaking, the decoration is called majolica.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:15:13 > 0:15:18The original treacly, runny, flamboyant, coloured glaze was
0:15:18 > 0:15:22actually invented in southern Europe. But they, what, 1880-1890?
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- Yeah.- You think Portuguese, Spanish? - They are Portuguese.- Portuguese.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28- What kind of money is it?- 60.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29- 60?- 60.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Can it be much less?
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- The death will be 50. - Can it be 40?- No.
0:15:36 > 0:15:37No. 50.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39- I had 40 in mind.- No.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- Would you spin me for 40 or 50? - No, I wouldn't, no.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44I will spin you 40 or 60.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Oh.
0:15:46 > 0:15:47- 40 or 60?- Yeah.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49OK. What would you like, heads or tails?
0:15:49 > 0:15:51- Heads.- OK, you ready?- Yeah.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52- OK. 40 or 60.- Yes.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57- You can change your mind at any time.- No, heads.- Are you sure?- Yes.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59EXAGGERATED SOBS
0:15:59 > 0:16:00Bad luck.
0:16:02 > 0:16:03It never works!
0:16:03 > 0:16:06His trademark coin toss may have let him down,
0:16:06 > 0:16:08but he doesn't seem to mind that much.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Ha-ha! Hello.
0:16:10 > 0:16:15Isn't that just absolutely drop-dead gorgeous?
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Hmmm...
0:16:17 > 0:16:20If you're sat at home now, screaming at the TV screen
0:16:20 > 0:16:23that that's positively revolting and it makes you want to vomit,
0:16:23 > 0:16:26then I say to you that you have no style,
0:16:26 > 0:16:30no sophistication and no refinement at all!
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Ooh! Thanks for that, David.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35He obviously loves his, errr, let's call it a plate!
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Paying £20 over the odds, he'd better.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41And, on a roll, he bags himself a lead-lined copper pot,
0:16:41 > 0:16:44but stays well away from a coin toss.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- 30.- Good man, I'll have it. Thank you very much indeed.- No problem.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Well, what on earth is that? I'm going to describe it as a planter.
0:16:51 > 0:16:55It's obviously lead-lined to take liquids of some sort.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57But could well be used for bottles.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01You could fill it with ice and lay a bottle sideways on.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03I'd pitch this somewhere in the 1950s,
0:17:03 > 0:17:07which actually makes it really trendy now.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11In the right household, contemporary house, cleaned up, bit of wax,
0:17:11 > 0:17:12that will look the business!
0:17:12 > 0:17:14That's the fifth purchase under his belt,
0:17:14 > 0:17:16and another quirky lot for Harper's haul.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18And talking of quirky,
0:17:18 > 0:17:21the Hawk seems to be buying a wooden mushroom?
0:17:21 > 0:17:24- 45?- Go on, then, give us 45. - Thank you so much.- Well done.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27- You won't regret it.- All right. Thank you very much.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31So that's £45 on a...a... OK, what is it?
0:17:31 > 0:17:34It's actually a hatter's block.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39This round here, this circumference is the head size.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43It's beautiful. It's so tactile. I absolutely love it.
0:17:43 > 0:17:48It was priced at 78. I got it for 45. I feel a little bit mean.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52But it's not everybody that wants this. And I've got to find somebody
0:17:52 > 0:17:54that really wants it.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56Caroline's pleased with her purchase
0:17:56 > 0:17:59and it's level pegging for our dealers with five buys each.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03The race is on to make a final killer deal
0:18:03 > 0:18:06and Devilish soon spots something that really gets his motor running.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08MUSIC: The Chain by Fleetwood Mac
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- I like anything motor related, don't you?- Yeah, I do.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Is it cheap and cheerful?
0:18:13 > 0:18:14It can be.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Depends what you think is cheap, doesn't it, really?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- 85.- 85?
0:18:19 > 0:18:20Love the colours.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25It's the kind of thing you'd sell to, well,
0:18:25 > 0:18:27I suppose a classic car dealer or, you know.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30What's the absolute death for me?
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Go on. Tempt me. You've got loads of them, for goodness' sake!
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- 70 quid.- How about 55?
0:18:36 > 0:18:40- No.- Listen, I'm failing really badly today with the old spin of the coin.
0:18:40 > 0:18:41Can I try my luck on you?
0:18:41 > 0:18:45- 60 or 70?- Doing the spin?- Yes.
0:18:45 > 0:18:46What do you want?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48- I'll have heads.- Right.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50- I am the unluckiest man alive.- OK.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Ahhh, is Harper's luck about to change?
0:18:53 > 0:18:54Heads.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59Oh, no! No, no! Lord!
0:18:59 > 0:19:02That's it. My life is over.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Lady Luck just isn't shining on our Devilish today!
0:19:05 > 0:19:09But his nice shiny tyre sign soon puts a smile back on his face.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Here we have just a delicious enamel sign.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16Great colours. But the thing you've got to ask yourself is,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18is it an original one or a copy?
0:19:18 > 0:19:20It's definitely original because,
0:19:20 > 0:19:23if you look very closely at the damaged enamel
0:19:23 > 0:19:26and run your finger along it, you can actually feel where the enamel
0:19:26 > 0:19:28has come off the tin.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32The copies, the repros are just simply tin and then painted over.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36I'm going to find out everything there is to know about India Tyres.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38I'm going to thoroughly enjoy it.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41And I predict a nice healthy profit too.
0:19:41 > 0:19:46So with that, David's decided he's bought enough to secure his win.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49You've got to be fast and furious in this game.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52You've got to get in there, buy the pieces and get out.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56I'm relieved I've done it before they all start packing up.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Because that is just far too stressful.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Well, the Hawk is in just that predicament!
0:20:02 > 0:20:04She still has bags of money in her kitty
0:20:04 > 0:20:08and with the fair drawing to a close, the clock's ticking.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Well, I think I've run out of stalls this way.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13I'm going to have to go back that way then I think I'm going to turn left.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Or was it right?
0:20:16 > 0:20:19But the Hawk thrives under pressure and she's got a plan -
0:20:19 > 0:20:22she's heading back to the stall where she bought the hat block,
0:20:22 > 0:20:25to bag herself another cranial curio.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Hmmm. What's the best on that?
0:20:27 > 0:20:2813.
0:20:28 > 0:20:3213 could be unlucky for some so we'd better make it 12.
0:20:32 > 0:20:33Shall we make it 12?
0:20:33 > 0:20:37- Yes.- I was going to... I don't have 50 pences so we'll make it 12.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41- That's perfect. Thank you ever so much.- Thank you very much. Bye.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Nice little thing. I think this is a polo hat.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47But I'm going to find out. Do a little bit of research on it.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51But it looks sort of early 20th century.
0:20:51 > 0:20:56It has got the maker's label right in the centre,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58which looks lovely in itself.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00I think that's great.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03It looks like half a coconut, doesn't' it?
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Well, that's six purchases in the bag for our brave bird of prey.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09And with our duo over the finishing line,
0:21:09 > 0:21:12it's time to see who splashed out the most.
0:21:12 > 0:21:17David and Caroline each arrived in Kent with a budget of £750.
0:21:17 > 0:21:22Devilish Harper sealed the deal on six purchases, costing £315.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25Caroline also leaves with six items today,
0:21:25 > 0:21:28but she spent a more thrifty £239.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Before they head back up north with their treasures,
0:21:33 > 0:21:36there's time to check out their competitor's buys.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38- Have you had a good day then? - Yeah, great day.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Great day and I'm really pleased with everything I've bought.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43I like it. I'm liking the collection.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45- There is a hat theme going on.- Yeah, can you believe it?
0:21:45 > 0:21:49- What kind of hat is that?- I was told that's a polo player's hat.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53- I think it's a shell.- It does have the look of a coconut about it.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54- It does.- Watch and wait.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- That's a pith helmet. - Pith helmet.- Yeah.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58That's a last. A hat maker's last.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00- Oh, my gosh! That's an interesting thing.- It is!
0:22:00 > 0:22:02What do you think of my funkmeisters?
0:22:02 > 0:22:05Funkmeisters? Is that what they are called, David?
0:22:05 > 0:22:08- Yeah. Get with it. - I can see people will love them.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09- I don't.- But not you?- No.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12OK, if I was to say to you, you can swap over
0:22:12 > 0:22:15and have all of my lovely luscious goods for all of your very
0:22:15 > 0:22:17mediocre, ordinary goods, what would you do?
0:22:17 > 0:22:19No. Absolutely not.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- What?- Absolutely not!
0:22:21 > 0:22:25- Goodbye. Off you go. Come on.- Oh, David, you know you don't mean that.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27I love you really but go on, we are having a tiff.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29This direction. Thank you.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31I'm not going to be talking to you for some time.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37So now our brave profiteers make their way to their bunkers
0:22:37 > 0:22:39to plan their next moves.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42They need to hunt down buyers for all their treasures, and the
0:22:42 > 0:22:45pressure is on to bank every possible penny of profit
0:22:45 > 0:22:47for their chosen charities.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50This is where their selling prowess really comes under the spotlight,
0:22:50 > 0:22:52as they hit their phones,
0:22:52 > 0:22:55and travel the countryside, in a quest to rack up the sales.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01At Devilish HQ near Durham, Corporal Harper's ready for action.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05Well, I've got to admit, the jungle is probably more of a natural
0:23:05 > 0:23:08environment for a pith helmet than Barnard Castle.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11But I don't care. I just love this thing.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15And I'm keeping it on in the hope it takes me on a bit of a journey.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Talking of journeys,
0:23:17 > 0:23:22my two funky 1970s chairs are going on a big journey.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24They are going back to a workshop,
0:23:24 > 0:23:28they are going to be ripped to pieces, stripped and restored
0:23:28 > 0:23:31and reupholstered in something wild and funky.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33And goodness knows where they are going to end up.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37The Chinese pot with the symbol for 'double happiness.'
0:23:37 > 0:23:41It's really important, I think, that we really hone in on that.
0:23:41 > 0:23:46And take it either to a Chinese person who understands and really
0:23:46 > 0:23:49values that symbolism, or maybe to someone involved in weddings.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51I don't know.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54And my car sign, well, that's got to go to something to do with cars.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56There is no doubt about that.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59You know I love cars so I'm hoping I'm going to get to see some
0:23:59 > 0:24:01real beauties with this thing.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03And along with that,
0:24:03 > 0:24:06David also has to sell his majolica plate, and copper planter.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08Down near Beverley,
0:24:08 > 0:24:10it seems Caroline's taking a laid-back approach.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12I've got some great things.
0:24:12 > 0:24:17Look at my cart. I'm absolutely thrilled to bits with it.
0:24:18 > 0:24:23Moving on to my bicycle. I love this. And it works.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26I had great fun on the day of buying it
0:24:26 > 0:24:28and I'm going to have more fun still in selling it.
0:24:28 > 0:24:33This helmet has caused me quite a bit of angst.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36I've done quite a lot of research on this.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40It is a horsey item but whether it is polo,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43whether it's racing, the jury is still out.
0:24:43 > 0:24:48This screen is Art Deco, mahogany, but all in all, I think
0:24:48 > 0:24:52I'm going to have fun placing these items.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56She also has her hat block and '50s coffee table.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00Now our battling dealers need to seek out the very best buyers
0:25:00 > 0:25:02and haggle for top drawer prices.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06And remember, until they shake on it, no deal is ever sealed!
0:25:06 > 0:25:10Before David gets his selling spree under way,
0:25:10 > 0:25:13he's sending his retro chairs off on their makeover journey.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17First stop Darlington, and a meeting with re-upholsterer Barry.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19- Hello, how are you? - Hi, how are you?- Good to see you.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- What do you think of these beauties? - I think they're fantastic.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24What are you going to have to do here?
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Basically, we are just going to have to strip the whole lot.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29- Brand-new fillings, brand-new fabric.- Yep.
0:25:29 > 0:25:30And then they are sorted.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32OK, what's the price per chair?
0:25:32 > 0:25:36- We had a think about it and we thought 140 per chair.- 140 a chair.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39That's fine. In any of these fabrics.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43- I shall go to the fabric choosing table.- OK.- And you do what you do.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45OK, thanks.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48So Barry sets to work on the chairs and David looks
0:25:48 > 0:25:52at fabrics for his potential buyer who's shown an interest in them.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55He rings Richard from a creative design agency.
0:25:55 > 0:25:56If he's in.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58He's looking for some furniture for his office.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01David's just got to get the colour right.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06'He has a red chair in there and our tables are bright red?'
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Bright red.
0:26:08 > 0:26:13I'm liking it already. A bright, bright red, like a Porsche 911 red?
0:26:13 > 0:26:15'Yeah, that's right.'
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Baby, now you're talking! OK, Richard. Leave that with me.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21- 'Excellent.'- Thanks a lot. See you soon.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23- 'Cheers. Bye-bye.'- Cheers. Bye.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26So David shells out £280 on reupholstering
0:26:26 > 0:26:30the chairs for a buyer who's not even seen them yet. That is daring.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Near Harrogate, the Hawk has lined up a possible buyer for her
0:26:34 > 0:26:38wooden screen and is meeting Rob, who deals in salvage items.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40Remember, the screen cost her £40.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44- Hello, Rob.- Hi there. - You found the screen!
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Yeah, the screen, found it.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48- Do you know, it's a bit unusual, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52When you normally get them, they are more female orientated, aren't they?
0:26:52 > 0:26:57- Yeah.- And I thought this might suit your very stylish display,
0:26:57 > 0:27:00with your leathers and your more masculine things.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Yeah.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Art Deco.- Yeah.- Mahogany.
0:27:04 > 0:27:08Inlay. Could do with a little bit of maybe polishing, restoring.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12Yeah, I've noticed one or two bits, little chip here.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- Yes.- I've got a few ideas for this.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19It's not actually bad as a backdrop to photo something in front of.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22If we were going to sell it. So maybe a piece of furniture in front.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24- Yeah.- That'd be quite nice. A chair.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28I was hoping for as near to 100 as possible.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Yeah, 100's strong.- Yeah. OK.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34- It's near where I'd want to sell it. - Right.
0:27:34 > 0:27:35Probably thinking...
0:27:36 > 0:27:38- £70.- £70.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44Could you squeeze £5 more, make it 75?
0:27:45 > 0:27:49Because you've been so charming, we'll squeeze the £5.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51- Thank you!- 75.- Thank you!- OK.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57So the Hawk sweet talked her way to a £35 profit.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00With Caroline off the starting blocks,
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Devilish needs to get selling.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05He's hoping his Chinese vase will find a new home
0:28:05 > 0:28:07at a hotel near Darlington.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10Look at this. Don't you think it's utterly gorgeous?
0:28:10 > 0:28:13I've come to a local hotel, a place I visit regularly,
0:28:13 > 0:28:16Headlam Hall, to bring my 'double happiness' vase.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18I think it's utterly perfect.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22They hold glamorous weddings here every week.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26And this baby is perfect for right here.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30The vase cost David £45.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34Time to spread a little happiness to hotel owner, Thomas!
0:28:34 > 0:28:40This symbol represents the ancient meaning of 'double happiness.'
0:28:40 > 0:28:44Particularly in partnerships, and particularly in marriages.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47It's quite modern. It's 10 or 20 years old.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50We like old things here. Nice period pieces.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54I can get you a 1,000-year-old pot for 50 quid.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56- They are cheap and cheerful.- Right.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Age has nothing to do with value at all.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01Again, it's the look and the style.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03- Oh.- And that has got the look and the style.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06And if that was an 18th-century double Chinese pot,
0:29:06 > 0:29:09we'd be looking at an awful lot of money.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11So what do you think? Are you hoping to achieve...?
0:29:11 > 0:29:14I'm hoping to achieve, for that, 85.
0:29:14 > 0:29:18- Hmm. I think that's a bit high. A lot high.- What price?
0:29:18 > 0:29:20What price do you put on double happiness?
0:29:20 > 0:29:26- I think 25.- I can't! It cost me a lot more.- Did it really?- Yes!
0:29:26 > 0:29:31I can promise you. I can promise you. It cost me £45.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35- 55.- You know, honestly...- I think I'm getting my eyes poked out here.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38- I don't think so.- We'll go for 55. - £10 note. Absolutely pathetic.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40But you know what, that's my job.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43- Just to spread happiness. - Not poke peoples eye's out?
0:29:43 > 0:29:44THEY LAUGH
0:29:44 > 0:29:48Well, Devilish tried his best but that's just a tenner added
0:29:48 > 0:29:50to his profit pot, not quite what he'd hoped for.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54He has better luck when he sells that colourful majolica plate to
0:29:54 > 0:29:57an Italian restaurant in Barnard Castle.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01- 100.- I love triple figures.- OK. - Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Making him a £40 profit.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Now Caroline's in the heart of the East Yorkshire
0:30:10 > 0:30:12countryside for her next deal.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15She's brought her wooden cart, which cost £45,
0:30:15 > 0:30:18to a local farm shop to see owner, Katie.
0:30:18 > 0:30:19Hi, Katie, nice to see you!
0:30:19 > 0:30:22- How are you?- And very well, thank you.- Nice to see you!- Thank you.
0:30:22 > 0:30:23What a treat.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- Well, I brought this to show you. - Where did you get it from?
0:30:27 > 0:30:31- What a treat!- I bought it from an antique fair in the south of England.
0:30:31 > 0:30:36But it's come further than that. It's originally come from Germany.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40- Right.- Early 20th century. Original metal-bound wheels.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44It really is fantastic and I just thought it might be something
0:30:44 > 0:30:48- that would fit in with your lovely country decor.- Absolutely.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51You know, we use the carts for display purposes.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54I was looking for 120-125.
0:30:56 > 0:31:01- OK. Is there any movement on that? - As it's you, 110?
0:31:02 > 0:31:06- OK.- 110 and it's done.- That's a good idea. Thank you.- Brilliant.
0:31:06 > 0:31:14The Hawk more than doubles her money and that's a cracking £65 profit!
0:31:14 > 0:31:16Up near Barnard Castle,
0:31:16 > 0:31:19David's going on a profit-hunting safari.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22MUSIC: Africa by Toto
0:31:22 > 0:31:24Oh, wow! Look at this.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Admittedly not quite deepest, darkest Africa.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28But look at these lovely creatures.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30I've come to meet a guy called Terry.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33I'm going to feed you soon! I'm definitely going to feed you soon!
0:31:33 > 0:31:36He is opening an animal sanctuary here and I'm thinking,
0:31:36 > 0:31:38"Come on, a pith helmet, it's a bit exotic.
0:31:38 > 0:31:39"There's going to be kids coming.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42"They are going to love to wear things like this."
0:31:42 > 0:31:44Hello, donkeys. Let's go find Terry!
0:31:44 > 0:31:49David bought the hat for £30, but will Terry go wild for it?
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Nice to meet you. This is just mayhem!
0:31:51 > 0:31:54- What are we looking at here? - These are pygmy donkeys.
0:31:54 > 0:31:58They come from Sicily, Sardinia, places like that originally.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00You've got geese all over the place.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03You haven't mentioned, did you know that I was wearing a pith helmet?
0:32:03 > 0:32:05I thought you dressed like that all the time.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08- THEY LAUGH - It's a wonderful thing.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10I bought this at an antiques fair.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12And I was thinking, if you had schools visiting,
0:32:12 > 0:32:15they could wear the pith helmet, couldn't they, the kids?
0:32:15 > 0:32:17Mm. Yeah. I suppose so, yes.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20The military introduced them into service in the 1870s.
0:32:20 > 0:32:24And if you were in Africa or India circa 1900,
0:32:24 > 0:32:26you would probably have a pith helmet.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Would it look as good on me as it does on you?
0:32:28 > 0:32:31To be honest, Terry, I doubt it very much. But shall we try?
0:32:31 > 0:32:33- Yeah, go on.- I will give you a go. Go on.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35I'll give you my honest opinion.
0:32:35 > 0:32:41You know what? You look stunning, Terry. Stunning. I am stunned.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44It's the man that maketh the clothes.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46It's true. You look the business.
0:32:46 > 0:32:51And I will tell you what, at £65, I think that will be a very,
0:32:51 > 0:32:53- very good investment.- Well...
0:32:53 > 0:32:55How about 35?
0:32:55 > 0:32:5835? That's absolutely dreadful and abominable,
0:32:58 > 0:33:00as good as you look in it.
0:33:00 > 0:33:01I can't. 55.
0:33:02 > 0:33:0350 and you are done.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06- I am being done. Well done. - Thank you.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09So David's selling safari banks him a £20 profit
0:33:09 > 0:33:12and takes us to the mid-way watering hole.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15So let's see how both our experts are doing!
0:33:17 > 0:33:21David has made three sales and banked a modest profit of £70.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27Caroline's done two deals, but has struck out into
0:33:27 > 0:33:30an early lead, with £100 profit in the bank.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34Both our duo have plenty of items left to sell though,
0:33:34 > 0:33:36so it's all to play for.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39Caroline's popped down the road from her home in Beverley
0:33:39 > 0:33:41for what she hopes will be a sporty sale.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45Here I am at Rowley Polo Club with my riding helmet.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48And I really want to learn to play polo!
0:33:48 > 0:33:50The helmet cost her just £12,
0:33:50 > 0:33:53and she's got a meeting with manager, George.
0:33:53 > 0:33:54Hello, George!
0:33:54 > 0:33:57- Hi, how are you? - I'm well, thanks.- Good.
0:33:57 > 0:34:02- Oh, who is this?- Molly. Molly, she is one of our playing ponies.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05- Just in for a bit of a break. - She's gorgeous!
0:34:06 > 0:34:12I've brought this. I've done... It was sold to me as a polo helmet.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15- OK.- I've done an awful lot of research on it.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19If you have a look inside, Andre & Co.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21- Oh, yeah.- Hatters, Piccadilly.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23I think that's Edwardian.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27The consensus of opinion is that it's a generic riding helmet which
0:34:27 > 0:34:31would have been covered with whichever silk you'd want or
0:34:31 > 0:34:34velvet or a peak for polo.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38That's basic and then you would make that fit the discipline
0:34:38 > 0:34:40- you are doing? - Yes, exactly.- Right, got you.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43Got you. Never seen anything like it. Honestly. Very unusual.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46- Would it look nice in your room? - In our display cabinet?
0:34:46 > 0:34:50- I'm sure it would. - How does 50 quid grab you?
0:34:50 > 0:34:53- It grabs me less than if it was less.- Right. OK.
0:34:53 > 0:34:57Is there any chance of doing a deal at 45 quid and then teaching me
0:34:57 > 0:34:58to play polo?
0:34:58 > 0:35:01- Without a doubt.- Brilliant! - Brilliant, thank you very much.
0:35:01 > 0:35:06Our sporty seller bags herself a £33 profit and a turn in the saddle.
0:35:07 > 0:35:08Everything from your shoulder.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10- Right.- Nothing from your elbow or your wrist.- OK.
0:35:10 > 0:35:12- So keep my arm straight?- Yeah.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Just pull the mallet back and hit the ball.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17Oh! SHE LAUGHS
0:35:17 > 0:35:19There's no end to her talents!
0:35:19 > 0:35:24CROWD CHEERING
0:35:24 > 0:35:27Yes. And riding high on her polo success,
0:35:27 > 0:35:31our diamond dealer also finds a buyer for her retro coffee table,
0:35:31 > 0:35:35selling it to a shop in Hull for a small £5 profit.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39Over in Harrogate, David's hunted down a potential buyer
0:35:39 > 0:35:41for one of his favourite items.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44Talk about taking things to the right market.
0:35:44 > 0:35:48I've come to see Tim here, who runs a chain of car repair garages
0:35:48 > 0:35:49throughout the North of England.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53Tim loves cars and I think he's going to love this.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56India Tyres, where do you think they came from?
0:35:56 > 0:35:58- METAL CREAKS - No, they didn't!
0:35:58 > 0:36:03David spent £70 on the sign and to give owner Tim a chance to have a
0:36:03 > 0:36:08good look at it, takes over his job changing tyres. That's commitment!
0:36:08 > 0:36:11Where on earth did you get this from, David?
0:36:11 > 0:36:14I bought it at an antique fair.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17- Yeah?- And I think it is an absolute stonker.
0:36:17 > 0:36:20Have you heard of India Tyres before?
0:36:20 > 0:36:22Of course I have! They are an old-fashioned Indian company,
0:36:22 > 0:36:24aren't they, who make tyres, obviously.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27- They are an old-fashioned... - Indian company?
0:36:28 > 0:36:31- He's got that so wrong. - Go on, then, you tell me, then.
0:36:31 > 0:36:35They were not made in India. Quite close. Scotland.
0:36:35 > 0:36:39By the 1950s, they were employing 3,000 people. Top-end tyres.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43Good quality stuff. Out of business in 81.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Would that be one for your collection?
0:36:45 > 0:36:47It's possible. It all depends on what the deal is, David.
0:36:47 > 0:36:48As per usual.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50It's £200.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52HE LAUGHS
0:36:52 > 0:36:55- Eh?- I didn't realise you were a comedian as well, David.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57I will continue while you just think about that.
0:36:57 > 0:37:02- 100 quid, David. 100 quid?- 180.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06That's not halfway. 180. I'll go 130.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09- 160.- You know where this is heading, don't you?
0:37:09 > 0:37:10Where are we going?
0:37:10 > 0:37:14150 final bid. Final bid. 150.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19And you've got a dirty hand.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22- Arm wrestle.- Yeah. - TERRY GROANS
0:37:22 > 0:37:28Devilish flexes his haggling muscles and banks £80 profit.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31And he ticks off another item on his list when he sells his unusual
0:37:31 > 0:37:34copper planter to a florist in Darlington,
0:37:34 > 0:37:37although it only makes him £10 profit.
0:37:37 > 0:37:41Caroline has travelled down south in search of her final buyers.
0:37:41 > 0:37:44First, she stops off near Reading, and sells her hat block to
0:37:44 > 0:37:50milliner Jane for £90, banking herself a tidy £45 profit.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56So with one final item to sell, the Hawk heads to a bike cafe
0:37:56 > 0:37:59in London with her vintage bike that cost her £57.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02She's meeting regular customer, Adrian,
0:38:02 > 0:38:04an online vintage bike dealer.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08- Hi, Adrian, how are you? - All right, how are you doing?
0:38:08 > 0:38:11Great. Adrian, I'm not an expert on bikes at all
0:38:11 > 0:38:14but I think this is from the late '50s. What do you think?
0:38:14 > 0:38:18Yeah, it's about 1956. It's a classic. Definitely.
0:38:18 > 0:38:22I have got customers for this. But obviously it has seen a bit of life.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24So it's going to need a complete strip down.
0:38:24 > 0:38:28For me, the very, very top end would be 50 quid.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30- 50 quid?!- Yeah.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32- Oooh.- That would be my top offer.
0:38:34 > 0:38:35Caroline, sorry.
0:38:35 > 0:38:39Now, that's all right. I can't take 50.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41It doesn't look like Adrian's going to budge.
0:38:41 > 0:38:44At £50, Caroline would have made a £7 loss, but luckily
0:38:44 > 0:38:50she's right outside the bike cafe, a perfect spot to go hawking.
0:38:50 > 0:38:54Well, after turning down that £50 offer,
0:38:54 > 0:38:56I've hawked my bike around this cafe
0:38:56 > 0:38:59and I found a young lady that wants my bike.
0:38:59 > 0:39:00She didn't want to be filmed.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03But she wants the bike and she's given me £60 for it.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Yes! That is a result!
0:39:05 > 0:39:08Nothing stops our steely-nerved dealer.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12It may be a teeny £3 profit but that's the Hawk sold up.
0:39:12 > 0:39:16David's got one more deal to do, and it's his most expensive item.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Well, what a transformation!
0:39:18 > 0:39:23My mucky brown '70s chairs now look vibrant in red
0:39:23 > 0:39:26and absolutely the business.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29I've got a buyer lined up. He's keen.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31He loves the idea of the colour.
0:39:31 > 0:39:36All I've got to do is wait for him to arrive. Not a bad little number!
0:39:36 > 0:39:38With the re-upholstery costs,
0:39:38 > 0:39:42David's spend on the chairs stands at a sizeable £360.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45He agreed a colour over the phone with design company director
0:39:45 > 0:39:50Richard, but it's his colleague Andy who gets the final say today.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52- Andy.- Good afternoon.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54- Very good to meet you. - Pleased to see you, sir.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57Fantastic. Please, take a seat. They are very comfortable.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01- Splendid. Rather relaxed here. - Aren't they good?
0:40:01 > 0:40:05OK, listen, you like the '70s kind of look, it's very trendy,
0:40:05 > 0:40:07bang on trend again.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10Yes. It is nice and bold. Very stylish.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Let me tell you what I've done. I've restored them.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Kept the chrome exactly as it is, so it will be pitted
0:40:16 > 0:40:18- and marked in places, but that's good.- OK.
0:40:18 > 0:40:24You know, it shows that they are old. Moneywise, I think £300 each.
0:40:24 > 0:40:29- 600 quid.- OK.- For a pair of restored, vintage '70s chairs.
0:40:29 > 0:40:33Personally, I think it's no money. What are your thoughts?
0:40:33 > 0:40:36I started at 400. Moved to 450.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38I can see you at 475.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41I'll meet you halfway at 500 quid and we are done.
0:40:44 > 0:40:45500 it is then.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Andy, you're a delight. Really, really good to meet you.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51- We'll do business again. - We shall indeed.- Thank you.- Cheers.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54Well, that's an enormous sale from the Duke of Durham,
0:40:54 > 0:40:57and a very chunky profit of £140.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02So after that white knuckle rollercoaster ride,
0:41:02 > 0:41:05it's nearly time to reveal who walks away victorious
0:41:05 > 0:41:07and who's left feeling weak at the knees.
0:41:07 > 0:41:11First let's remind ourselves of what they spent in Maidstone.
0:41:11 > 0:41:15Our duo took £750 each to the antiques fair.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19David made six purchases and, including the re-upholstery
0:41:19 > 0:41:23on the armchairs, he spent £595.
0:41:24 > 0:41:30Caroline also bought six items, but spent just £239.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33But now, of course, it's all down to the profit.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37All the money that David and Caroline have made from
0:41:37 > 0:41:40today's challenge will go to charities of their choice.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43So without further ado, let's find out who is today's
0:41:43 > 0:41:46Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Champion!
0:41:47 > 0:41:51- Hello, you.- Hello, David. How are you?- Very good.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54- You tore across that lawn there. Honestly.- I'm a fast mover.
0:41:54 > 0:41:55You are a fast mover!
0:41:55 > 0:41:59Antiques fairs, I mean, these are our natural environment, you and I.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01- Don't you think? - Absolutely. Loved it.
0:42:01 > 0:42:05Mine was really, really transport orientated though, David.
0:42:05 > 0:42:09I got a cart, I got a bicycle, and I got a polo helmet.
0:42:09 > 0:42:13- Is that what it was?- Yes. It was. And I got to ride a polo pony.
0:42:13 > 0:42:17It was great fun, David. What about you, how did you do?
0:42:17 > 0:42:19Talking about transport, how about travel?
0:42:19 > 0:42:21- My pith helmet.- Yes.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24- Didn't quite take me to the African bush but we got close.- Right.
0:42:24 > 0:42:29I saw llamas, goats, ducks and all sorts of things.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32I went to a wildlife sanctuary and had a brilliant time.
0:42:32 > 0:42:34But did we make much money?
0:42:34 > 0:42:37- Open the box. Let's have a look. - Are we going to count?
0:42:37 > 0:42:38- Three...- Two...- One!
0:42:40 > 0:42:42- Oh, my goodness me!- David Harper!
0:42:42 > 0:42:44- Well done, you.- Caroline Hawley!
0:42:44 > 0:42:47You're not really that good at antiques fairs, are you?
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Well, it's not over yet, David.
0:42:49 > 0:42:52Yes, it was a slam-dunk success for Devilish,
0:42:52 > 0:42:55and the big profit on the armchairs played a major part.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59When you improve and restore objects,
0:42:59 > 0:43:02you add huge amounts of appeal and value.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06And they are the pieces that won me the antiques fair.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09Thank you, my little red beauties.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12Well, what can I say? Well done, David.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14You did very, very well!
0:43:14 > 0:43:16Yes, Caroline gets another chance to knock
0:43:16 > 0:43:19David off the top spot tomorrow, as they go head-to-head in the
0:43:19 > 0:43:21biggest challenge of the week -
0:43:21 > 0:43:23the almighty Put Your Money Showdown!
