0:00:42 > 0:00:45Coming up, there's foul play afoot.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48I have to say that I think he's playing mind games with me.
0:00:48 > 0:00:51Danny tries to beat Eric at his own game.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55I'd like to show him that I can get some good porcelain.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57And there's straight talking in the selling.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59Ooh, very different.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02- The main difference is, mine's better.- Yes!
0:01:02 > 0:01:05This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.
0:01:05 > 0:01:06Nice to see ya!
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Yes, a warm welcome, viewers, to today's match.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26We're gearing up for what's looking like a busy day on the pitches of
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Newark Antiques Fair in Nottinghamshire.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32Our Premiership players limbering up for an almighty kickabout at
0:01:32 > 0:01:35the collectables. So, before the whistle blows,
0:01:35 > 0:01:37let's meet the captains.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41First up is a lean, mean, bargaining machine.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45He's got over a billion matches under his belt and is still as fit as
0:01:45 > 0:01:46a butcher's dog.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Known as Porcelain Prancer, it's Wycombe's own
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Eric "The Knowledge" Knowles!
0:01:53 > 0:01:55I'm just determined.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Up against Eric is a young hopeful, bursting with vigour and vim.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03He knows nothing about the offside rule but doesn't care,
0:02:03 > 0:02:05as he can dribble deals with the best of them.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08It's the Northamptonshire Annihilator,
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Danny "Del-Boy" Sebastian!
0:02:10 > 0:02:12What have you got for me?
0:02:12 > 0:02:15And as we toss the coin on today's tussle,
0:02:15 > 0:02:20our tackling twosome are risking £750 of their own prize money.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24Their aim, to strike as many profit goals as possible
0:02:24 > 0:02:26and win this match of the merchandise,
0:02:26 > 0:02:29with all the proceeds going to good causes, of course.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32So, Eric Knowles and Danny Sebastian,
0:02:32 > 0:02:36it's time to put your money where your mouth is!
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Well, here we are, what?!
0:02:39 > 0:02:41- Morning, Eric.- Morning.
0:02:41 > 0:02:42We arrived in total darkness,
0:02:42 > 0:02:46but now the sun has beckoned from beyond the horizon.
0:02:46 > 0:02:47It has popped its head out.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50It certainly has. So you've been here before?
0:02:50 > 0:02:54- Quite familiar with this territory, to be honest. So have you!- Yes.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56On several occasions, yes.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Yes. So what's your approach?
0:02:58 > 0:03:03Well, I normally take the A1 and I come off on the A46 and...
0:03:03 > 0:03:09Well, because it's such a huge fair, you've got to be methodical.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11It is a fair, I would say, for big boys,
0:03:11 > 0:03:15because I know today, I've got to try and do some big spending.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19If you buy big, there's always a chance that you're going to make
0:03:19 > 0:03:21- a big profit.- A bigger profit! - Exactly.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23- Doesn't always work, does it? - No, it doesn't, no.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26So what about yourself? You're no stranger here, are you?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28No, I'm not. I know where a few people are in this place,
0:03:28 > 0:03:31so hopefully they've got some good gear for me.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33I'll be going straight to them.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36It's just another day at the office for you, isn't it?
0:03:36 > 0:03:38You could say that, without blowing my own trumpet.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39You could do, really.
0:03:39 > 0:03:44Listen, just you be you, try and come out of your shell,
0:03:44 > 0:03:46and just take them on, because, you know,
0:03:46 > 0:03:48we're both big boys, aren't we?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50We are definitely that!
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Catch you later.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55So, our big boys bound off into the fair,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58hoping to fill their booty bags with bargains.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Morning! Morning! Morning!
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- Hello!- All right?!- Yeah.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Each of them is on familiar ground at this fair,
0:04:07 > 0:04:11but Del-Boy seems particularly well connected.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14So, how does Eric feel about that?
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Danny has gone off to meet specific dealers, because, I mean,
0:04:17 > 0:04:19this is his playground.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21This is where he comes on a regular basis.
0:04:21 > 0:04:26But the secret is just to keep going, and, you know,
0:04:26 > 0:04:30it's one of these areas, there's just so much to take in.
0:04:30 > 0:04:37So you've just got to relax, go with the flow and crack on.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41Or to put it another way, keep calm and carry on!
0:04:41 > 0:04:44But while Danny knows a lot of people here,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47how is he going to use that to his advantage?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49I've only got one strategy here today,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52and that is to try and get a good deal out of some of these dealers.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57I've worked these fairs for years, so I know a lot of the people here.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59About time I got a favour back.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Cruising through the fair like a visiting royal,
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Danny is launching a true charm offensive.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08- How are you? Hey, nice to see you. - And you.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10How are you?
0:05:10 > 0:05:13And he's got a plan of where he's heading first.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16We're in the rich department here, not where I want to be.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17I want to be where the casuals are,
0:05:17 > 0:05:19where the price is a little bit cheaper.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Knowing the lie of the land is helpful,
0:05:22 > 0:05:25as Danny quickly homes in on his first target,
0:05:25 > 0:05:27an industrial cage locker,
0:05:27 > 0:05:29and he's not wasting any time.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32- How much is this, mate?- 25 quid.
0:05:32 > 0:05:3322 quid? My hand's ready.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35That'll do, thank you very much.
0:05:35 > 0:05:36I like that.
0:05:36 > 0:05:42Well, Danny's set a new personal best for his fastest purchase ever.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Right, let's take a look at that again.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Hand in position there.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Nice little bit of dribbling.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50Yes, the old one-two
0:05:50 > 0:05:52and a beautiful clean shot there,
0:05:52 > 0:05:54across to a gentlemen's handshake,
0:05:54 > 0:05:56and it's an early bath
0:05:56 > 0:05:58for the Northamptonshire Annihilator.
0:05:58 > 0:05:59Wonderful!
0:05:59 > 0:06:0110, 20.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- And two.- Much obliged, thank you. - You're welcome.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06This is a lovely little galvanised locker unit.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10I'd say it's probably about 1960s, 1970s.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14Probably used in a school or maybe in a swimming pool.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18Today, industrial is very, very in vogue.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Everybody wants it and, basically, it can be used anywhere.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25It's just trendy, it's in, it's quirky.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27It cost me £22.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31I'm going to try and double up, maybe even treble up, on this piece.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Definitely something that Eric "The Knowledge" Knowles
0:06:35 > 0:06:36would not buy.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Whether or not that's a good thing is yet to be seen
0:06:38 > 0:06:43but at least he's got a plan - as, across the market, Eric doesn't.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46And he's been meandering quite aimlessly, it appears.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50I don't know what I'm looking for.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52These things have got a habit of appearing
0:06:52 > 0:06:53and - I've said it before -
0:06:53 > 0:06:57with almost like a red light flashing over the top of it.
0:06:57 > 0:07:02# But I still haven't found what I'm looking for... #
0:07:02 > 0:07:05So, while Eric goes in search of flashing red lights,
0:07:05 > 0:07:09Del-Boy is dealing at a breakneck speed
0:07:09 > 0:07:12and has picked up a vintage shop display model.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- What's the best price on it? - 80 quid.- I'll have a deal at that.
0:07:16 > 0:07:1880 quid. Lovely.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20I've bought this little fibreglass boy.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24I mean, he must be about 1960s and probably even 1970s,
0:07:24 > 0:07:26because he's made of fibreglass.
0:07:26 > 0:07:31I do like this Afro-Caribbean type sort of figurine.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Let's not get confused here -
0:07:33 > 0:07:36this young chappy here is not a blackamoor.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Blackamoors were sculptures or figurines
0:07:39 > 0:07:42depicting fieldworkers or slaves,
0:07:42 > 0:07:45usually African, but this ain't one.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48It's just a young lad who's got his hat on,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50he's got a big smile on his face, he's happy as Larry.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54He's going up the farm to go and pick some provisions for tea.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56That is a great decorative piece.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58You know, he's in relatively good condition -
0:07:58 > 0:08:01there's a little bit of dirt, a little bit of marks about him.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03We're not bothered about that.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06I've bought him right money and I think there's a healthy profit
0:08:06 > 0:08:07to be made on this piece.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11So, Del-Boy is up two items to his opponent's none.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14Across the fair, Eric is continuing his search
0:08:14 > 0:08:17for that elusive first buy.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19It's not there, but I know it's here.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I just know it's here, so I'm not daunted and I'm not desperate.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25I'm just determined.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Yes, Eric. Ever positive, showing that commitment
0:08:28 > 0:08:31and perseverance is essential in this game.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35Danny, however - well, he's just relying on his mates' rates.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37- How's it going?- Yeah, not too bad. - Not so bad, is it?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- How much are them ladders?- £15.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- I tell you what...- That's a bargain.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- Do I knock her down a little bit? - No, cos it was 20 to anybody else!
0:08:45 > 0:08:47- Give us 12 quid, then. - Go on, shake my hand.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50That's easy enough, isn't it? I'd better go and check them.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52- Shall I go and inspect them? - They're fine, they're fine!
0:08:52 > 0:08:54Oh, these are nice. They're even better.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55Bargain of the day.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59I think... I tell you what - it definitely is.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01I said I was going to get a deal today
0:09:01 > 0:09:02and that is precisely what I've got.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05I've gone and got myself a lovely set of ladders.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08To be quite honest with you, I didn't even know they were lovely
0:09:08 > 0:09:10until right about now, because I bought them
0:09:10 > 0:09:12without even looking at them, without even inspecting them.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15But now I have inspected them, they're great.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16They've got a lovely patina.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Generally, you've got a bit of rope that comes across,
0:09:19 > 0:09:20but these haven't.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23These have got a lovely metal bracket...
0:09:24 > 0:09:26..which just stabilises them up.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30They cost me £12. I'm going to four times my money on these.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33I'd say they're probably around...
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Who knows, really? They could be, like, '60s, '70s, '80s...
0:09:36 > 0:09:39But they're very commercial.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Everybody in shops nowadays,
0:09:40 > 0:09:42they want these just to use as a prop,
0:09:42 > 0:09:44just to use as a set of shelves.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47I'm happy as Larry.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52There you have it. Buying blind can pay off and the vintage stepladders
0:09:52 > 0:09:55raised Del-Boy three buys above Eric,
0:09:55 > 0:09:59who is still searching for his big red-light first buy.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00But what-ho!
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Could this be it?
0:10:02 > 0:10:06Is Knowlesy finally ready to splash out on this ice bucket?
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Hello there.
0:10:07 > 0:10:08I presume that that would take
0:10:08 > 0:10:11a nice bottle of champagne at one stage.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14It actually came from France, so I can do 38 on that one.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17£38, we've got a done deal.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Well, I just bought myself a continental pewter ice bucket.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Date - around about 1900, very Art Nouveau in style.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Could have been made in France, where he bought it,
0:10:26 > 0:10:28but it could've been made in Germany as well.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32Either way, for £38, I think that is quite a good start to the day.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34# Ice, ice, baby... #
0:10:34 > 0:10:37And so the Iceman cometh into this competition,
0:10:37 > 0:10:38picking up his first item...
0:10:38 > 0:10:40WHISTLE BLOWS
0:10:40 > 0:10:42..just as the half-time whistle blows.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Now, while our players pull up their socks and suck on some oranges,
0:10:46 > 0:10:50let's see who's been defending well and who's on a yellow card.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55From a £750 budget, Eric has had a tough first half,
0:10:55 > 0:10:58scoring one item for £38,
0:10:58 > 0:11:02leaving him £712 for the rest of the match.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Danny has been defending well.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Three buys cost him £114,
0:11:07 > 0:11:10leaving him with £636 to play with.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13- How's it going?- Not so bad.
0:11:13 > 0:11:14I wish I could say the same.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18I'm going to be honest with you, you know, that's me.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20I've been having a terribly slow start,
0:11:20 > 0:11:23because there is so much ground to cover here
0:11:23 > 0:11:25that I'm completely dazed.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27You're bamboozled by it all. I'm having a great day.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- Bamboozled?- Bamboozled by it all, are you?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Bamboozled! I'm having a great day, Eric.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34I've got some lovely lots.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36- Oh, wonderful(!)- Some great things.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- I've seen a lot of your stuff here as well.- Fantastic for you(!)
0:11:39 > 0:11:44Listen, just carry on what you're doing and don't worry about me.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45I'll be fine. Listen...
0:11:45 > 0:11:47- Hey!- See you.- See you.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51Oh, dear. It seems Danny really is getting under Eric's skin today.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53I think he's playing mind games with me.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55I'm not totally convinced that he's been buying
0:11:55 > 0:11:58at a rapid rate of knots.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00In fact, what he's actually done...
0:12:00 > 0:12:02It's going to work against him because he's buoyed me up.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05He's got me going for it big-time.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09Well, as it goes, Eric, Danny's not playing mind games.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11He's actually been spending money.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13But, spurred on by Del-Boy's boasting,
0:12:13 > 0:12:16The Knowledge has taken possession of a burning desire
0:12:16 > 0:12:18to score more items,
0:12:18 > 0:12:21which may explain his interest in this lighter.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24I'm always attracted to anything that is connected with
0:12:24 > 0:12:26the beautiful game,
0:12:26 > 0:12:28because I'm a man of two teams -
0:12:28 > 0:12:32tribal, I'm Burnley, and adopted, I'm Wycombe Wanderers.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35But I'm also interested in these early lighters.
0:12:35 > 0:12:40I'm going to have a stab at that because you could say I'm buying
0:12:40 > 0:12:42a striker who is a striker.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44I know. Don't switch off.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46It doesn't get any worse than this.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50We apologise for the interruption, but it did get worse.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52We will resume the programme shortly.
0:12:53 > 0:12:54And you rejoin us
0:12:54 > 0:12:58after Eric has bought his footballer lighter for £50.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02First of all, he's made out of a spelter -
0:13:02 > 0:13:06it's like a zinc alloy - but he's been decorated in such a way that
0:13:06 > 0:13:08it simulates bronze.
0:13:08 > 0:13:13Date-wise on this, probably around about 1930, 1935.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15When it comes the buyer, well, it's got dual appeal
0:13:15 > 0:13:18because something like this is going to appeal to
0:13:18 > 0:13:23a football memorabilia collector, but also a lighter collector.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27Having secured an item with several sales options,
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Mr Knowles is fighting back.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Yes, viewers, the wait is over.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Well, Eric's WEIGHT is over.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35It's over there and it's a paperweight,
0:13:35 > 0:13:37by the looks of it.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Quite a rare paperweight.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41We can't find any for sale anywhere.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43What's the money on that, as a matter of interest?
0:13:43 > 0:13:47I'm looking for about £65 for it.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- Because of its rarity.- I see. - And it's a nice size, nice colours.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52If I offered you 50?
0:13:52 > 0:13:5450 would buy it, yes.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- OK. We'll give it a go. - You'll give it a go.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Eric picks up his paperweight
0:13:58 > 0:14:02but will it prove to be a heavyweight profit maker?
0:14:02 > 0:14:06Over the years, I have handled hundreds of paperweights
0:14:06 > 0:14:10and the best ones tend to be French, from the 1840s -
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Baccarat, Clichy, Saint-Louis.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15These are the big names.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17I've never seen a paperweight
0:14:17 > 0:14:20with "London 1951" before.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24Sometimes you'll buy something and it's all told on the label.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26The thrill is doing your own research,
0:14:26 > 0:14:28so I'll see what I can come up with,
0:14:28 > 0:14:30because I want to know who made this.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34And that paperweight lifts a great burden from Eric's shoulders
0:14:34 > 0:14:37as he catches up to his rival, three buys each.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41Now, Danny's voyage of discovery has led him to pick up a couple of items
0:14:41 > 0:14:45that seem quite appropriate for the one they call Del-Boy.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48These are so cool. Nowadays,
0:14:48 > 0:14:51everyone is sort of having a little bar in their house.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53This is cushty.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56This is a late 20th-century boat bar.
0:14:56 > 0:14:57Quirky, nice,
0:14:57 > 0:15:00the sort of thing that probably Del-Boy would have in his house,
0:15:00 > 0:15:02but it's just all there.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05There's little bits of...you know,
0:15:05 > 0:15:07little bits of the trimming that's coming away but,
0:15:07 > 0:15:10to be quite honest with you, you're always going to find that.
0:15:10 > 0:15:11As long as these are being used,
0:15:11 > 0:15:14you're always going to get a little bit of damage.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Same goes here but the nice thing is,
0:15:17 > 0:15:21at least these lugs are still in, whereas if the lugs weren't in,
0:15:21 > 0:15:23you'd probably have to take the string away.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27And it's not just the bar Danny has his eye on.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Anyone got a bar, you'll want an ice bucket.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33This little ice bucket, I mean, pineapple - brilliant.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35The top's there, all the leaves are there.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38Great thing about these, what you've always got to look out for,
0:15:38 > 0:15:40is the glass liner inside.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43If you've got that, you're cooking with gas.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Happy that he could get a lovely jubbly profit from the boat bar
0:15:48 > 0:15:52and ice bucket, Danny does a double deal with the camera-shy stallholder.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57I'm quite happy. £145 paid for the pair.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Actually, that's a pineapple, Danny.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02# Agadoo-doo-doo Push pineapple... #
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Still, this kitsch duo pushed Danny back into a 5-3 lead,
0:16:06 > 0:16:09but Eric is quick to reclaim some ground
0:16:09 > 0:16:13when he picks up a vintage glass bowl and stand for £40.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19What I've just bought is a French glass dish
0:16:19 > 0:16:23in a wrought-iron stand.
0:16:23 > 0:16:24What I'd like them to be,
0:16:24 > 0:16:27I'd like this to be by Daum of Nancy
0:16:27 > 0:16:30and I'd like the base to be by a man called Edgar Brandt.
0:16:30 > 0:16:36But they're not, and that's why I was able to buy it for £40
0:16:36 > 0:16:39and not the best part of £800 to £1,000.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43But it looks the part. It's cheerful, it's colourful
0:16:43 > 0:16:46and it is from la belle France.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50So, er, I think anything that cheers anybody up today
0:16:50 > 0:16:52is well worth having.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56So Eric cheers himself up with his cheap and cheerful bowl and stand.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58He really is the undisputed champion
0:16:58 > 0:17:00when it comes to glassware and pottery.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04So what's Danny doing sniffing around his territory?
0:17:05 > 0:17:06What have you got for me?
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Listen, see these here?
0:17:08 > 0:17:10They're a stonking pair of vases.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12I tell you what it is...
0:17:12 > 0:17:15I'm up against the great Knowledge Knowles.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18I'd like to show him that I can get some good porcelain too.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20I know these are Royal Doulton.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23- I'm sure they're a winner. - You're sure they're a winner
0:17:23 > 0:17:25- or you're sure they are a oner? - A winner.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29- They're a one-and-a-halfer. - Are they a winner at a oner?
0:17:29 > 0:17:31No, I couldn't. I'd be losing too much on them.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35- 150.- Tell you what, I'll meet you in the middle - this is my last bid.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37- 130.- 130.- Give us that hand.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39That's a bold move from Del-Boy.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42£130 for the vases.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44And having encroached into Eric's territory,
0:17:44 > 0:17:48Danny decides he's spent up and heads for the dressing room.
0:17:49 > 0:17:54Knowlesy still has money to spend and it may be late in the day,
0:17:54 > 0:17:56but he's finally got a plan.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00What I've done, I've come back to where I started,
0:18:00 > 0:18:01very early this morning,
0:18:01 > 0:18:04because the facts were that people were still unpacking.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07So I'm now back, they're fully unpacked,
0:18:07 > 0:18:11and I've just got a feeling that there's something in there that's waiting for me.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13And sure enough, he quickly homes in
0:18:13 > 0:18:16on a nice and shiny cocktail ensemble.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18American? It did look American.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22They've got the cups priced separately, but I'll do you a deal.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24All you need to do now is find a smart bar somewhere.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Yeah, well, exactly. A very smart bar, as well.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Or somebody... What I'm doing is,
0:18:30 > 0:18:33I'm looking for a girl who is working as a waitress
0:18:33 > 0:18:35- in a cocktail bar.- That's right.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Don't, don't you want them, Eric?
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Yeah, I do like the cocktail set but, you know,
0:18:42 > 0:18:45you really do need them on a tray to really set them off, don't you?
0:18:45 > 0:18:48And I'm just wondering what you've got in the way of trays
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- and we could work something into a deal.- OK.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53This one is pretty good.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Can we give it a try?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57See if they all fit on.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59So if we put that on there,
0:18:59 > 0:19:01you put that in the centre.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03That goes in the middle.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Looks like serious dosh to me.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07How... How painful will that be?
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- Together, complete...- Yeah?
0:19:10 > 0:19:12The whole lot...
0:19:12 > 0:19:13250.
0:19:16 > 0:19:17How does that sound?
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Do it quick.
0:19:21 > 0:19:22Oh, look at the pain on his face.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25That's a big spend but it's a class act, isn't it?
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Yes. It certainly is.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Goodbye, old friends.
0:19:29 > 0:19:30Goodbye.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33# Yes, I like pina coladas
0:19:33 > 0:19:36# And getting caught in the rain... #
0:19:36 > 0:19:40Yes, that's a whopping £250 for the tray, shaker and glasses,
0:19:40 > 0:19:42making it the biggest spend of the day.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Well, if you're looking for something
0:19:46 > 0:19:49that epitomises the Art Deco age,
0:19:49 > 0:19:52then look no further at my cocktail set.
0:19:52 > 0:19:57Noel Coward said it was the age of laughter and cocktails and,
0:19:57 > 0:20:00all right, I paid good money for this,
0:20:00 > 0:20:02but I think it's worth every penny.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06With the right person, I'm going to make a profit.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09And with that, the buying whistle is blown,
0:20:09 > 0:20:13the pitches are cleared and our exhausted experts can rest.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14But only momentarily.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18While they do, let's analyse their purchasing prowess.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22From a £750 budget, Eric had a very slow start
0:20:22 > 0:20:28but bought five items and spent an impressive £428.
0:20:28 > 0:20:33Danny bought six items but spent less, £389.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37So, let's see what they make of each other's hauls.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Well, I've been thinking big time, but everything I've bought today
0:20:40 > 0:20:42is going to fit in the boot of my car.
0:20:42 > 0:20:47But when it comes the real big time, I've got to say, Danny, my boy,
0:20:47 > 0:20:51I think you get the prize.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- What for? Big boy's toys? - But also, I've got a question.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58I really need to know, the cage that you've got there...
0:20:58 > 0:21:01What on earth do you keep in that?
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Well, what do you want to keep in it?
0:21:03 > 0:21:05Do you put shirts in it in a shop?
0:21:05 > 0:21:07Do you want to put books in it in a house?
0:21:07 > 0:21:09That's just adaptable.
0:21:09 > 0:21:10- I see.- What do you put in that?
0:21:10 > 0:21:14Well, you put something nice and bubbly in that.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Oh, it's a champagne bucket.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18- It's a champagne bucket, yes. - Looks quite nice.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- What about my bar?- I love your bar.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23Well, if it's got the Knowledge Knowles recognition,
0:21:23 > 0:21:27that's put a great beam on my face.
0:21:27 > 0:21:28- It has.- Look at that.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30It is a lovely cocktail set.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32I paid good money for it, though.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35I paid very good money for it, but you want the best...
0:21:35 > 0:21:37- It's a good item. - ..you've got to pay for it.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41- Absolutely.- And were you conscious, when you bought your pineapple,
0:21:41 > 0:21:44that that features in Fools And Horses?
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Virtually every episode.
0:21:46 > 0:21:48- I wasn't, actually. - Well, there you go.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- It was sublimin-able... Whatever. - Yes?
0:21:51 > 0:21:54It was there in your subconscious.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56What about my lovely Doulton pair here?
0:21:56 > 0:21:58- Danny...- How did you miss them?
0:21:58 > 0:22:01No, well, Danny, forgive me - I didn't miss them.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- Oh, OK.- The reason I didn't buy them
0:22:03 > 0:22:06is that that one has been restored on the top.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09You see, if you're a ceramics man, you're looking at glazes
0:22:09 > 0:22:11and that's very glassy, that's very polished,
0:22:11 > 0:22:13and that's slightly matte.
0:22:13 > 0:22:14And that's the warning sign.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Now, look, I don't want to put the dampers on it,
0:22:17 > 0:22:19because they're both lovely vases.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21They're Doulton Lambeth, they're very Arts and Crafts.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23They've got size.
0:22:23 > 0:22:27But the collectors, they like absolute perfection.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30But if nothing else, I think we've finished today
0:22:30 > 0:22:32very much on a high note, don't you?
0:22:32 > 0:22:34- Absolutely.- OK.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36- Go for it, kid. - Hey, you tricked me earlier.
0:22:36 > 0:22:37- No, no.- Grab him!
0:22:37 > 0:22:39ERIC CHUCKLES
0:22:39 > 0:22:40- Good luck.- And you, too.
0:22:43 > 0:22:48So, our experts travel back to their respective residences to prepare for
0:22:48 > 0:22:50the rocky road that lies ahead.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54Yes, buying is the easy part in this game of two halves,
0:22:54 > 0:22:57as our two teams must now play the home leg,
0:22:57 > 0:23:01creating maximum wealth for charities of their choice.
0:23:01 > 0:23:07Down in his Wycombe base, Eric is ready for a rubdown.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Well, I'm slowly recovering from
0:23:08 > 0:23:11that trek all around the antique fair.
0:23:11 > 0:23:12It's massive.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14Do you know, I mean, as a bonus,
0:23:14 > 0:23:16I think I've probably lost about half a stone.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20But here is what I came up with and, in all fairness,
0:23:20 > 0:23:23these four items are a bit neither here nor there
0:23:23 > 0:23:25from a money point of view,
0:23:25 > 0:23:28because they were all around about £50 apiece.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32The big money, however, is on the cocktail shaker
0:23:32 > 0:23:37and the associated plated goblets, you might call them.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40And, of course, it's all set off by that wonderful stand.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44So it is a marriage but, by jingo, it's a marriage made in heaven.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Doesn't it look fantastic?
0:23:46 > 0:23:51And I'm told that the red Bakelite version is the rarest.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53It comes in other colours.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56So I'm going to have to find a big spender.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00I'm thinking big London hotel, maybe.
0:24:00 > 0:24:05I've got to make sure that it's in perfect working order,
0:24:05 > 0:24:10so I'm going to dig out my old cocktail recipe book
0:24:10 > 0:24:12and give it a try.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Such dedication! And Eric's also got to find buyers
0:24:15 > 0:24:16for his champagne bucket,
0:24:16 > 0:24:18football striker lighter,
0:24:18 > 0:24:20paperweight and bowl and stand.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Danny is warming up in Wellingborough.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27What a great day at the fair I had.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31I bought the steps and I bought the industrial lockers.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33Now, these are great retail pieces
0:24:33 > 0:24:37and I don't think I'm going to have a problem selling them at all.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39My fibreglass child.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Now, I think he's absolutely fantastic.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45When I bought him, I had somebody in mind for him.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48I know a person who's got a Caribbean restaurant
0:24:48 > 0:24:51and he's going to look fabulous, situated in there.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53My two Doulton vases.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Really, really nice.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Good size, great condition.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58Is it?
0:24:58 > 0:25:00My colleague Eric Knowles
0:25:00 > 0:25:04has told me there's definitely restoration been done on this.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08My boat bar and my pineapple icebox.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12Great pieces. I really love it. Screams retro,
0:25:12 > 0:25:16but sometimes, a bit too quirky can be a problem selling,
0:25:16 > 0:25:20but I know once I do get the right buyer,
0:25:20 > 0:25:22I'm going to get the right profit.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26Our professional profit pursuers must now get their noses
0:25:26 > 0:25:28to the grindstones, their pedals to the metal
0:25:28 > 0:25:31and their powers of persuasion to the max,
0:25:31 > 0:25:34as they target buyers for their goodies -
0:25:34 > 0:25:36and they know that no deal is made
0:25:36 > 0:25:38until a hand is shaken and the money is taken.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40First to kick off is Eric,
0:25:40 > 0:25:44who has travelled to the capital with his sporty lighter.
0:25:44 > 0:25:45Well, I'm in central London
0:25:45 > 0:25:49to meet sporting memorabilia guru Gary Ashburn.
0:25:49 > 0:25:54I'm hoping that he's going to take a shine to my striker.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58So, will the lighter that cost him £50 score a profit
0:25:58 > 0:25:59or will Eric hit an own goal?
0:26:01 > 0:26:03- Wow!- There's the man.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06- Well, that's certainly different, isn't it?- Innit, as they say.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- That is very different.- Have you ever seen one like it before?
0:26:09 > 0:26:12To tell you the truth, I don't think I've ever seen one, no.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15You're the great footballing memorabilia man, as well!
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Yeah, I think it...
0:26:17 > 0:26:20It's really great, innit? Hits all the boxes.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24Retro, vintage, you know, reminisce, nostalgia.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27You can just see someone who's a really big football fan, you know,
0:26:27 > 0:26:30having that as sort of pride of place on the desk, something different.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33It's quite rare, but it's a lighter, isn't it, as well?
0:26:33 > 0:26:36It is. This is what... This is what they call the wand.
0:26:36 > 0:26:37You would have fabric on that
0:26:37 > 0:26:40and that would be doused with flammable liquid.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Touch it against the flint, it ignites.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45- What do you think? - About 75 quid cash.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47I tell you what - 110.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50I tell you what, we'll do a deal. I know you need a new raincoat.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52I'll give you 100 quid all in.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- 100 quid. All right. - Well done.- Good man.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57He shoots, he scores.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Eric's early goal brings him a profit of £50 and makes it 1-0.
0:27:03 > 0:27:04Well, that was a nice bit of business,
0:27:04 > 0:27:07because I managed to actually double my money.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10So in more ways than one, I think,
0:27:10 > 0:27:14in footballing terms, I've got myself a bit of a result.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17So, with Eric running up the league table,
0:27:17 > 0:27:20Danny is keen to even things up.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22I'm in Wellingborough to see Jodie,
0:27:22 > 0:27:26the owner and the head chef of a Wellingborough restaurant.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28I've brought my fibreglass child with me.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31I just hope she loves this boy as much as I do.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33The figure cost Danny £80,
0:27:33 > 0:27:36but will he be able to pick up a profit
0:27:36 > 0:27:38from Caribbean restaurant owner Jodie?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41You can see he is of Caribbean descent and, obviously,
0:27:41 > 0:27:43you've got a Caribbean restaurant here.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46- Yeah.- I think this is the home for him.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Yeah, I like him. He looks good.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Where would you put him? What would you do with him?
0:27:50 > 0:27:53I think, if we could get some way to...
0:27:53 > 0:27:56Maybe for him to be handing out menus or something
0:27:56 > 0:27:58at the front door, something like that?
0:27:58 > 0:27:59Well, that's exactly what I was thinking.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Yeah, I think that'd be really good.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04How... How about £220?
0:28:04 > 0:28:07Um...I like him...
0:28:08 > 0:28:11..but I was thinking a bit lower.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13£100 lower.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Oh, no. No, that's a low blow!
0:28:15 > 0:28:17That is a low blow!
0:28:17 > 0:28:18Was that below the belt?
0:28:18 > 0:28:19Definitely!
0:28:19 > 0:28:22How about...150?
0:28:22 > 0:28:26I knew you was going to come in somewhere around that sort of figure. I knew you was.
0:28:26 > 0:28:32185. And I think I'm being absolutely fair with you now.
0:28:32 > 0:28:33Come on, Danny, I think 150.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35175?
0:28:35 > 0:28:37155, we've got a deal.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40- 158.- Come on, Danny!
0:28:40 > 0:28:43Pounds make... Pounds make profit in this game!
0:28:45 > 0:28:48- All right, 158.- That will do me.
0:28:48 > 0:28:49That will do me.
0:28:49 > 0:28:53Some pretty tough negotiating means that Jodie takes the figure
0:28:53 > 0:28:57and Danny walks away with a spicy profit of £78.
0:28:59 > 0:29:03Over in London, Eric is rocketing on to his next sale.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06He's found a swanky hotel interested in having a look
0:29:06 > 0:29:08at his cocktail ensemble.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10It set him back £250,
0:29:10 > 0:29:14but will that be too punchy for bar manager Bart?
0:29:14 > 0:29:18I'm feeling as though I've done a little bit of time travel here
0:29:18 > 0:29:24and I'm back in the '30s, emphasised by my cocktail shaker.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27Beautiful. Bakelite, I'm assuming?
0:29:27 > 0:29:29Bakelite, yes. Red is the rarest.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31It's silver plate, American.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35I think the golden age for cocktails with this type of shaker
0:29:35 > 0:29:38is sort of 1930 to maybe 1950.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42So, the question is, is this an ensemble that you think
0:29:42 > 0:29:47would do credit and add to the ambience of this room?
0:29:48 > 0:29:51I think it would. We do quite a few masterclasses here,
0:29:51 > 0:29:53where the guests actually shake their own cocktails.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55It would be very nice to use it for that.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57So, it's all about the money.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01My guideline for this was £450 but...
0:30:01 > 0:30:03- OK.- ..you probably have a budget.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05I'm willing to do 300 on it.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08350 is my sort of bottom marker.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10- 350 it is.- Good lad.- Lovely.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14Eric shakes on the price and sprits away a profit of £100
0:30:14 > 0:30:16for the cocktail set.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20Well, that was my biggest spend
0:30:20 > 0:30:24and I knew that I was never going to be able to double my money,
0:30:24 > 0:30:26so it was very nice, actually,
0:30:26 > 0:30:28just to make a three-figure profit.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31Danny is now lagging 2-1 behind,
0:30:31 > 0:30:34but he's hoping to overtake with a cheeky double sale
0:30:34 > 0:30:38of his ladder and cage on his home ground of Wellingborough.
0:30:38 > 0:30:39I've sold my first item.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40I've now got these two items,
0:30:40 > 0:30:44which I'm going to try and sell to a florist that I know.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Be nice if she takes both bits.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48- Hiya, Cat.- Hello, how are you?
0:30:48 > 0:30:51Good. I'm good, thank you.
0:30:51 > 0:30:52What have I got for you?
0:30:52 > 0:30:55Well...I see you've got a few sets of steps in here
0:30:55 > 0:30:58- but it doesn't matter, does it, in this industry?- No, no.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00There's always room for another set of steps, I think.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03And I need to make a ribbon rack,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06so I could use it as a ribbon rack if I...
0:31:06 > 0:31:09- Ribbon rack?- Yeah, I could put some holes in here, a bit of a rod,
0:31:09 > 0:31:12couple of ribbons on it and, like, mount it on the wall.
0:31:12 > 0:31:13Oh, that'll look fantastic.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15And I've also got this little locker,
0:31:15 > 0:31:19originally probably used in a school or a swimming baths.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23As you know, nowadays, all this industrial is very, very in vogue.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26Is it something you would be interested in, these couple of bits?
0:31:26 > 0:31:29Well, I think so. I think I could probably use that
0:31:29 > 0:31:31if I mount it on the wall and have it as storage,
0:31:31 > 0:31:32rather than having it as a standing unit,
0:31:32 > 0:31:34so it could kind of, like, sit on the wall
0:31:34 > 0:31:37to, like, display vases and things.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39What about the ladders? Would you have a go on both of them, or...?
0:31:39 > 0:31:42It depends how much you want to charge for them, to be fair.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45I'll go straight in at 100 if you want, for the pair.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48I think I'm looking at more 70 for the pair, to be honest.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50- Cat...- I've got quite a lot of ladders here, to be fair.
0:31:50 > 0:31:51Can we do 78?
0:31:51 > 0:31:54- 76.50.- Cor, you are a hard woman!
0:31:54 > 0:31:56You... You are hard!
0:31:56 > 0:31:59But I think you're also very fair, Cat,
0:31:59 > 0:32:01- and I'll shake your hand at that. - There you go.
0:32:01 > 0:32:06Yes, Danny sells both items and makes a total profit of £42.50
0:32:06 > 0:32:09on the cage locker and ladder.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12And that double sale means he has sold more items than his rival -
0:32:12 > 0:32:14but remember, this game is all about profit,
0:32:14 > 0:32:18so who is in the lead at the midway point?
0:32:18 > 0:32:22Eric has sold two of his items, making a profit of £150.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25Danny has sold three items and is behind,
0:32:25 > 0:32:28with only £120.50 to show for it.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34Both our experts have three items left to sell
0:32:34 > 0:32:36and Danny has some catching up to do.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38Luckily, he's up next,
0:32:38 > 0:32:41heading to Weedon to see antiques dealer Mark.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44Now, he wanted to play Eric at his own game
0:32:44 > 0:32:46and bought a pair of restored vases,
0:32:46 > 0:32:49so the question is, will he be able to sell them?
0:32:49 > 0:32:55And will he get back anything close to the £130 that he paid for them?
0:32:55 > 0:32:57I'm going to play Eric at his own game now.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00I've bought these two lovely bits of Royal Doulton.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03It's cost me a lot of money, it's my biggest purchases.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07Let's just hope Mark gives me a healthy profit.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09- How are you, Mark? - I'm very well, Danny. How are you?
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Great, thank you.
0:33:11 > 0:33:15These pair of antique Royal Doulton vases
0:33:15 > 0:33:17- that I'm bringing here today... - Build 'em up, Danny, build 'em up.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20- It's going to complement this place. - Is it really?- And...
0:33:20 > 0:33:24- I know you love Arts and Crafts. - I do.- The Art Nouveau movement.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26And there is a little bit of damage,
0:33:26 > 0:33:30I think, on one of them, but they've been professionally restored.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32- Can I just have a look at that one? - Absolutely.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34I mean, I quite... I like Arts and Crafts.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37I don't usually buy that much Arts and Crafts pottery,
0:33:37 > 0:33:39but these are a good size.
0:33:39 > 0:33:43- Great size, lovely green and brown, mottled...- I'm a little bit put off,
0:33:43 > 0:33:46even though they've been restored and restored really well,
0:33:46 > 0:33:49but it's really quite obvious in the colour,
0:33:49 > 0:33:50so you notice immediately.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54- Yes, yes. - But it's all down to price.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57So what kind of money are you asking for them?
0:33:57 > 0:33:58- I'd be...- How much?!
0:33:58 > 0:34:01- DANNY CHUCKLES - Sorry.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03I'd be happy for 250.
0:34:03 > 0:34:04- Would you?- For the pair.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06I wouldn't want to be giving much more than 160 for them.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09Mark...these are fine antiques.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13You're sticking your neck out at 250, Danny.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15- I mean, honestly...- Can we say 220?
0:34:17 > 0:34:19I'd really want to be under two with them.
0:34:19 > 0:34:20195, then, give us your hand.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- There you go. Thank you very much. - Lovely, Mark, thank you.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26So, despite the vases being restored,
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Danny makes a decent profit of £65.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Now, just how proud of himself is he?
0:34:32 > 0:34:34Well, Mr Eric "Knowledge" Knowles,
0:34:34 > 0:34:37it's not only you who can sell porcelain.
0:34:37 > 0:34:38I made a tidy profit there!
0:34:38 > 0:34:41That's definitely someone who's happy with himself,
0:34:41 > 0:34:43so the competition is hotting up.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46Next, both Danny and Eric head to London
0:34:46 > 0:34:49with their rather contrasting ice buckets.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53First, old Knowlesy takes his Art Nouveau champagne bucket
0:34:53 > 0:34:54to Chelsea antiques dealer Romulo.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59You're saying £60 could be the right price for you?
0:34:59 > 0:35:00So if you want to shake on £60...
0:35:00 > 0:35:03Eric shakes and makes a swift £22 profit.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06And so, from classic...to kitsch.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09Danny is also on a bar crawl,
0:35:09 > 0:35:12with his ice bucket that cost him £25.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15He's in Peckham, south London, and, obviously, Del-Boy needs to find
0:35:15 > 0:35:19a bar with a perfect ambience for his retro pineapple.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22And, do me a lemon, he's only gone and done it!
0:35:22 > 0:35:25- Tristan? - Yeah, yeah. Nice to meet you.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Tristan looks up for it, too!
0:35:27 > 0:35:31- So, what is actually going on here? - So, it's called Little Nan's Bar.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34It's all based on, like, a nan's living room, like my own nan's.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37I'm a lover of kitsch and retro and all that sort of period.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39It's nice to see it all put together.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42They call me Del-Boy myself and I walk into here
0:35:42 > 0:35:43and it's like his front room!
0:35:43 > 0:35:45Let's get down to business.
0:35:45 > 0:35:48I mean, I know straightaway that this is going to fit in here.
0:35:48 > 0:35:53This is the original, real McCoy from the 1970s,
0:35:53 > 0:35:56with the glass liner, pineapple ice bucket.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59- Yeah, yeah.- I mean, you're not going to get better than that.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Yeah, definitely looks cool.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04I mean, it's going to fit in here a dream.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06I think it will, but it all depends about how much.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09I'd love to get £75 for it.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11See, 75 is way too high to what I'd pay.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14Give us 70 quid - I'll knock down a fiver. How about that, as friends?
0:36:14 > 0:36:18- How about 45? - 55 - all the fives - how about that?
0:36:18 > 0:36:20What about... I don't know, like, 53?
0:36:20 > 0:36:24I'm not going to... I'm not even... I'll grab that! Thanks very much.
0:36:24 > 0:36:29And that deal makes Danny a prickly £28 profit,
0:36:29 > 0:36:30and he's down to one item.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33The Knowledge still has two
0:36:33 > 0:36:36but he's tracked down a possible buyer for his paperweight,
0:36:36 > 0:36:38in the form of paperweight collector Derek.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41Remember, he has £50 invested in it.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45So, this is the collection?
0:36:45 > 0:36:47This is just part of it, Eric.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49I've actually got about 900 weights all together.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51THEY CHUCKLE
0:36:51 > 0:36:55So, there's about 300 down in this room...
0:36:55 > 0:36:57- OK. - ..and the rest are upstairs.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59But what a collection, and so...
0:36:59 > 0:37:01They're all so, for want of a better term, eclectic.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04- They are all so different for the most part, aren't they?- Yes.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07For me, if I like the paperweight, it's got a place in my collection.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10- Doesn't matter whether it's worth a fiver or 500.- Oh, right.
0:37:10 > 0:37:11Do you have a favourite?
0:37:11 > 0:37:13There is one particular one...
0:37:13 > 0:37:14- Can I hold it?- You certainly can.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16Now, that is amazing.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20He's had to make this little sort of rosette of sorts, and then he's...
0:37:20 > 0:37:22- He's encased it with a triple overlay...- Yeah, yeah.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24..so it's got white, blue and green.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Yeah. And then he's got...
0:37:26 > 0:37:27Then he's had to cool that down,
0:37:27 > 0:37:31cut it and he's then had to reheat it,
0:37:31 > 0:37:33encase it in glass and then encase it again,
0:37:33 > 0:37:35in a further triple overlay...
0:37:37 > 0:37:38..and cut that.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40I understand you've got a paperweight
0:37:40 > 0:37:41that I may be interested in?
0:37:41 > 0:37:43I understand it's a London 1951.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Well, I have actually got one of those.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48- You have?- Yeah, let me show you.- OK.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51So, there's my example.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Hmm. Hmm.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56So I'd be very interested to see yours...
0:37:56 > 0:37:57- Right. - ..and see how it compares.
0:37:57 > 0:37:59Oh, very different.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02- The main difference is, mine's better.- Yes!
0:38:02 > 0:38:04THEY LAUGH
0:38:04 > 0:38:07- That's the reason why I'm interested in it.- Ah!
0:38:07 > 0:38:12- If you compare that with yours, the central cane...- Yeah.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14..is very, very clear.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17So, come on, Derek - where are we going to kick off with this one?
0:38:17 > 0:38:21You know, I mean... You know, I don't want you to peak too soon.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Maybe £40? How does that sound?
0:38:24 > 0:38:27It...it sounds like, for me, to be frank with you,
0:38:27 > 0:38:29it sounds like financial suicide.
0:38:29 > 0:38:34So...so, I mean, would 70 be...near the mark, do you think?
0:38:35 > 0:38:38- What about meeting in the middle? - What, 60?
0:38:38 > 0:38:3955?
0:38:39 > 0:38:43If you just...nudge you up to 60, that would...
0:38:43 > 0:38:45No, I'll nudge you down to 50.
0:38:45 > 0:38:46It all matters to me.
0:38:46 > 0:38:52If the sound of 58 is...is within the realms of feasibility...?
0:38:52 > 0:38:54Right, we've got a deal there.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Eric makes just an £8 profit on the paperweight.
0:38:57 > 0:39:01He's down to his final item, his yellow bowl and stand,
0:39:01 > 0:39:06which he takes to Westerham-based antiques dealer Ashton...
0:39:06 > 0:39:08- We've got ourselves a deal. - Excellent.- Good man.
0:39:08 > 0:39:09Thank you, Eric.
0:39:09 > 0:39:11..and sells for a £50 profit.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Danny still has his boat bar,
0:39:18 > 0:39:23but can he sail away with more than the £120 he paid for it?
0:39:23 > 0:39:25I'm in Derbyshire to see Thomas.
0:39:25 > 0:39:29He owns a mobile cocktail-bar service.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32I know he likes quirky bars, I know he likes themed bars,
0:39:32 > 0:39:35so I've brought along my bar.
0:39:35 > 0:39:36I'm going to push the boat out on this one.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40- Now, this looks cool.- This IS cool.
0:39:40 > 0:39:44This is your original 1960s boat bar.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46Very, very iconic for its time.
0:39:46 > 0:39:48And in really nice condition.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51What, really, is your thing here?
0:39:51 > 0:39:54No, we do, like, quirky, bespoke mobile bars around the UK.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58You know, it's just with a bit of a...a twist, not your normal bar.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00What are you selling? Pints of beer?
0:40:00 > 0:40:01No, no, we don't do pints.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03Cocktails - bespoke cocktails.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Funky stuff. Craziest we've ever done was in the middle of a pool,
0:40:06 > 0:40:08on a bar floating on an island.
0:40:08 > 0:40:09- Wow!- Yes, wow.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11But this one is better than an island.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14- Well, of course it is! You've got the boat itself!- The Titanic!
0:40:14 > 0:40:16DANNY CHUCKLES
0:40:16 > 0:40:18I'll tell you what... What's surprising me -
0:40:18 > 0:40:20you're in a container!
0:40:20 > 0:40:22We are mobile, so we don't have a venue.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24- We store everything in here, then... - Course, yeah. Makes sense.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26- Let's get down to business. - Yeah.
0:40:26 > 0:40:30I've looked on the internet. They're fetching strong money.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32I'd like £480.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34I was thinking more 250?
0:40:34 > 0:40:37Oh, no, you've... You've cut me right in half!
0:40:37 > 0:40:39Well, Danny may have a fight on his hands here,
0:40:39 > 0:40:42but will he get his asking price?
0:40:42 > 0:40:44If he does, it'll win him the competition.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48All will be revealed but, before we do,
0:40:48 > 0:40:52let's remind ourselves of how much our experts have spent today.
0:40:52 > 0:40:58From a £750 budget, Eric bought five items for £428.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02Danny bought six, totalling £389.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04But now, all that matters is profit.
0:41:04 > 0:41:08All of the money made will go to our dealers' chosen charities,
0:41:08 > 0:41:10so who is today's champion?
0:41:10 > 0:41:12- Hey. How are you?- Not so bad.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14- Yes, I'm...- Not so bad.
0:41:14 > 0:41:17I'm wearing the shoes I nearly wore out walking around Newark,
0:41:17 > 0:41:19trying to find something to buy!
0:41:19 > 0:41:24- How did you get on?- Well, I was trying to spend big there,
0:41:24 > 0:41:25with my cocktail shaker.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28That was a nice 1930s set.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31- It was a very nice set, wasn't it? - Good home for it?
0:41:31 > 0:41:35Yes, a very good home, a very smart hotel in central London, no less.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37- Oh, was it?- What about yourself?
0:41:37 > 0:41:39Well, I did not so bad at all with my...
0:41:39 > 0:41:41Remember my ship bar?
0:41:41 > 0:41:42- Oh, yes, yes.- That was very nice.
0:41:42 > 0:41:47I sold that to a mobile cocktail service.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49You know, he done mobile bars.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53And, yeah, he sort of had upcycled units, if you would,
0:41:53 > 0:41:56- so mine was nice and original - he loved it.- Good.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58The ice bucket went well, as well.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00I went to a place that did cocktails again.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04- So, it seems like it's all drinks, this...- It does, doesn't it, yeah?
0:42:04 > 0:42:09So, to be frank with you, I have to admit that I didn't really manage
0:42:09 > 0:42:12much of a mark-up on my sales, so...
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Let's see if we can drink to this, then.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17You might be doing the drinking and if you are, you're buying.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19OK, one, two, three...
0:42:19 > 0:42:22- Oh, yes!- Dinner as well!
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Only slightly, only slightly!
0:42:24 > 0:42:27Well, I don't know about that - I think you've doubled it.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29- You've doubled it! - Come on, let's go and have a drink.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32You weren't fibbing - you really were in your element!
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Yes, Danny wins today's contest,
0:42:36 > 0:42:38having taken on and beaten the prince of porcelain,
0:42:38 > 0:42:41and his winning profit came from that kitsch bar...
0:42:41 > 0:42:44- 365.- 368.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47- 368, yes!- Deal.
0:42:47 > 0:42:52..making an incredible £248 profit and securing his win.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Brilliant. I've made a good, strong win.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56I'm now cooking with gas.
0:42:56 > 0:43:00Well, that was, without question, quite a serious defeat.
0:43:00 > 0:43:04But there again, Danny was very much playing on home turf and,
0:43:04 > 0:43:06at an antique fair, I can tell you,
0:43:06 > 0:43:09that man is very much in his element.
0:43:09 > 0:43:13But tomorrow, Eric gets the chance to reclaim his throne
0:43:13 > 0:43:16when they fight once again at a car-boot sale in Essex.
