0:00:05 > 0:00:11the titans of the antiques trade... and pitches them against each other,
0:00:11 > 0:00:16to see who can make the most money from buying and selling.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19That's amazing! Truly amazing.
0:00:19 > 0:00:23Today, newcomer Catherine Southon takes on Put Your Money veteran

0:00:27 > 0:00:31giving you the inside view on the secrets of the trade.
0:00:31 > 0:00:36Coming up...Charlie's legendary charm is tested to breaking point.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39- My friend's over there. - Where is he?!
0:00:39 > 0:00:43Well, how dare you negotiate with something...!
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Cunning Catherine will use any means to seal a deal.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48I'll give you a cuddle. Come on, £9.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50All right, then. Go on, then.
0:00:50 > 0:00:55And our dealers will go to any lengths to beat their opponent.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00Catherine Southon, THIS is the way to sell your items from the boot fair.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Take her away, Chisholm!
0:01:17 > 0:01:21Today's car-boot bonanza pitches veteran dealer
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Charlie 'The Charmer' Ross against our new kid on the block,
0:01:25 > 0:01:29'Cunning' Catherine Southon, as they compete to see who can make
0:01:29 > 0:01:34the biggest profit from buying and selling antiques.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Charlie's no stranger to competitive car-bootery!
0:01:37 > 0:01:38You're the man!
0:01:38 > 0:01:43Will being on familiar turf allow this charming chappie to dominate?
0:01:43 > 0:01:46You are an angel! Mwah!
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Or can novice car-booter Catherine usurp the Charmer's crown?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52£250 and a kiss and a cuddle.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56Today, Catherine and Charlie go head to head at a car-boot sale
0:01:56 > 0:01:57in Ardleigh, Essex.
0:01:57 > 0:02:02They've each got £250 of their own money to spend,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05and all the profit they make goes to their chosen charities.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09In the battle for profit, there can only be one winner.
0:02:09 > 0:02:14Catherine Southon and Charlie Ross, let battle commence!
0:02:16 > 0:02:21- Miss Southon! Welcome to deepest - mwah - Essex!- Thank you so much.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25- Boot fairs! Are you good at boot fairs?- I've done one or two,
0:02:25 > 0:02:28but today I think I need an antique hand-warmer. I am freezing!
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Have you got money?- I have. - How much?- 250 here.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- I've got 250 as well. - What's your plan of action?
0:02:33 > 0:02:37- My plan of action is to try and find an antique.- Good luck.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40On paper, this challenge might look like the biggest mismatch
0:02:40 > 0:02:41since David took on Goliath,
0:02:41 > 0:02:45but we all know how that little tussle turned out!
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Booter beginner Catherine has the cards stacked against her,
0:02:50 > 0:02:53but she's one tough cookie who learned her trade
0:02:53 > 0:02:57at Sotheby's Auction House, and is, of course,
0:02:57 > 0:03:02one of the stars of Bargain Hunt. This lady knows how to deal.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06MUSIC: "Independent Women" by Destiny's Child
0:03:07 > 0:03:10The cunning one is under no illusions about just how tough
0:03:10 > 0:03:12this challenge is going to be.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14This place is enormous!
0:03:14 > 0:03:18It's one of the biggest boot fairs I have ever been to.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22I've got my work cut out today, cos I've got to sift through
0:03:22 > 0:03:27all this stuff and find one hidden gem. It's going to be impossible!
0:03:30 > 0:03:34Catherine's adversary is a high-flying
0:03:34 > 0:03:35international auctioneer.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Oh, yeah!
0:03:39 > 0:03:41MUSIC: "Prince Charming" by Adam and the Ants
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Our antiques dandy is charm personified.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55But underneath beats the heart of a determined competitor.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Here we are in the boot fair, and I need a strategy,
0:03:58 > 0:04:03which is...find an antique, buy it, move on.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Find another one, buy it, move on.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08It might not be easy here to find antiques,
0:04:08 > 0:04:10but that's what I'm going to try and do,
0:04:10 > 0:04:14try and get all my buying over and done with by 11 o'clock.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18So, our warring warriors commence battle
0:04:18 > 0:04:19with different attitudes.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23While Catherine moves cautiously through the aisles...
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Charlie roars off the starting blocks
0:04:26 > 0:04:30and gets straight down to charming the stall holders.
0:04:30 > 0:04:38This is brill! The last one of these real ones I sold made 4.4 million.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Well, I don't know how much this one is, but I'm sure
0:04:41 > 0:04:46a collector of these things would love a little scale model.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48- How much is this, sir? - That one's £3, mate.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52£3! D'you know, three quid, I don't think I'm even going to argue!
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Nah, there's probably a profit in that.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57See, even the sellers understand the name of the game!
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Profit, profit, profit.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04While Charlie's gearing up to strike, cunning Catherine's lost
0:05:04 > 0:05:07in an uncharted wilderness of aisles and stalls.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11I thought this was going to be easy, but...it ain't!
0:05:11 > 0:05:15Come on, Catherine! Find your cunning and take the plunge,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18because our captain of confidence is lining up
0:05:18 > 0:05:22a bargain bonanza of not one, but seven model cars!
0:05:22 > 0:05:2615 quid, the lot? You're the man!
0:05:26 > 0:05:31Yes, the Charmer's raced ahead, bagging seven model cars for £15.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Our man's unstoppable.
0:05:34 > 0:05:40I've bought about £15,000,000's worth of Ferraris for £15.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Oh, yeah!
0:05:44 > 0:05:48While the Charmer's at full throttle,
0:05:48 > 0:05:51poor old Catherine's hitting the skids.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Maybe I'm just...using the wrong tactics,
0:05:54 > 0:05:58I'm just walking around, and I need to really home on in,
0:05:58 > 0:06:02and really sift through everything and find that gem.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04I'll do it. I have to do it!
0:06:04 > 0:06:07That's the spirit, Catherine.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10Remember, your opponent takes no prisoners.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15Catherine, my dear, are you sinking? If so, I've got something for you!
0:06:15 > 0:06:17A buoy to keep you afloat!
0:06:17 > 0:06:20Armed with a new plan to leave no stone unturned,
0:06:20 > 0:06:25our lady finally spots something.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27- 1.50, it'd make a nice doorstop. - It's very beautiful.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31- There you go.- Lovely.- Thank you very much.- Thank you so much.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35And she's done it! Cunning Catherine has made her first purchase.
0:06:35 > 0:06:40Nice little item, this. And £1.50...there's going to be a profit.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Both our dealers are off the blocks,
0:06:42 > 0:06:45and this battle is now in full swing.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48But the going isn't easy, even for the Charmer.
0:06:48 > 0:06:55Price of table, £150. Potential sale price of table, £45!
0:06:55 > 0:07:02Potential loss, £105. What to do? Leave it there.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05This game can turn in an instant, and now she's up and running,
0:07:05 > 0:07:10could it be that a glimmer of guile is returning to the cunning one?
0:07:10 > 0:07:12I'm feeling a bit more upbeat.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Still got a long way to go, still got a lot of items to buy,
0:07:15 > 0:07:18but, er, we're getting there.
0:07:18 > 0:07:19# Hey, big spender... #
0:07:19 > 0:07:26That's the spirit, Catherine. Just another £248.50 left to spend! Hmmm.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32The Charmer has been mulling over an item he spotted earlier in the day.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37I saw an ebonized torchiere earlier. Not the most exciting thing.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41About four foot high, and asked the lady to hold on to it for me.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Just going to see if she has done.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45It's still here!
0:07:45 > 0:07:48- It is!- You're a lady of your word. - I am!
0:07:48 > 0:07:49- Did we say a fiver?- We did.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52There we are, my dear. Five of the finest.
0:07:52 > 0:07:58It's a torchiere. We might call it a bust stand, and it's ebonized.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Not everybody's cup of tea, but I suppose you could flash it up
0:08:01 > 0:08:06with a bit of gilding round the column here,
0:08:06 > 0:08:10which would make it a bit spicier, but...let's just sell it as it is.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13At five quid, I don't think we can go wrong.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Catherine is hot on Charlie's heels,
0:08:16 > 0:08:21and she could be going gaga over a retro radio.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24MUSIC: "Radio Ga Ga" by Queen
0:08:24 > 0:08:28It's quite fun, isn't it? It's quite retro.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31I'm retro!
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Are you? I can tell in that hat!
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- What's your best price on it? - 12 quid, top whack!
0:08:38 > 0:08:40- Come on, £8.- I can't, honestly.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Nine?- Tenner, go on. Give us a tenner!
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- I'll give you a cuddle. Come on, £9. - All right. Go on, then.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48If I'm getting a cuddle, that's all right.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52And our first lady of cunning's not finished there.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56She's found a mirror and dressing table stand for just £7.
0:08:56 > 0:08:57What we've got,
0:08:57 > 0:09:02this lovely mirror which would slot into the top here, for a nice frame.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04And this beautiful drawer at the bottom.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07We certainly know that this has got a bit of age to it,
0:09:07 > 0:09:09and I think it might be Edwardian.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12I like the fact that we've got a nice bit of boxwood stringing
0:09:12 > 0:09:15going around the outside of this lovely frame.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19The drawer as well. Lovely, lovely drawer. Let's take this out,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22and you can see, we've got boxwood string in there,
0:09:22 > 0:09:26and these little geometric shapes all around the outside.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30For £7...I think that's all right.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33There's got to be a bit of a profit there. There has to be.
0:09:33 > 0:09:39From nowhere, the newly confident car-boot queen is on a roll!
0:09:39 > 0:09:41There we are. Thank you very much indeed!
0:09:41 > 0:09:45She's nabbed six vintage children's' books for just £1.50.
0:09:45 > 0:09:51She's now on four buys to Charlie's two, and she's still only spent £19.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Which means the Charmer will be looking to scour
0:09:54 > 0:09:57every nook and cranny of this market.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59- Have you got things in the back of the van?- Yeah.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Come on, let's have a butcher's!
0:10:02 > 0:10:04I've got money burning a hole in my pocket!
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Ohhhh!
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Blimey O'Riley!
0:10:08 > 0:10:11What does that weigh? That'd make a cracking doorstop, wouldn't it?
0:10:11 > 0:10:14- It does, yeah.- Blimey O'Riley, you need to be strong!
0:10:14 > 0:10:18I reckon they used to use that for cleaning the chimneys.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22Cleaning the chimneys? Really? Where you stick something up there,
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- tie a weight on the end and drop it down the chimney?- Yeah.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- Really?- Easy way!
0:10:26 > 0:10:29You wouldn't want to put your foot under it.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31- No, you wouldn't.- Cor!
0:10:31 > 0:10:33That's fantastic!
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Wonderful!
0:10:35 > 0:10:40- How much is that? Is it a pound? - No, it's 35.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Oh, I can't afford 35 quid for that, but thank you for looking...
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- What d'you want to pay for it? - I'd give you a tenner for it, sir.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49A crisp ten pound note.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51- Take it!- Take it!
0:10:51 > 0:10:53You heard, no, no, hang on!
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Take it.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57You wouldn't want to listen to the ladies?
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- I'll tell you what, I'll give you 12 quid.- 12?- Yeah.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02- Right then.- Good man!
0:11:02 > 0:11:07A tenner, and 11, and 12 of the best, sir!
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- Right, thank you.- Thank you, sir. - Yeah, and you, sir.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Well, what a pleasure seeing the Charmer in action,
0:11:13 > 0:11:19and he also bagged a wooden plane for the princely sum of just £2.
0:11:19 > 0:11:24Well, that is known as 'a lot for your money'.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27This weighs pounds and pounds and pounds, and I suppose,
0:11:27 > 0:11:31it wasn't very expensive per pound, but I think if we sandblast it,
0:11:31 > 0:11:37it'll make a fantastic doorstop, and nobody will ever be able to move it.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39The Charmer's coming up on the inside
0:11:39 > 0:11:43faster than a speeding bullet, and our warring warriors
0:11:43 > 0:11:45are now on four items each.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52They started the day with £250 of their own money.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54So far, the Charmer has made four deals
0:11:54 > 0:12:00and spent a total of £34, leaving him a total of £216 still to spend.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Cunning Catherine has also got four items in the bag,
0:12:07 > 0:12:09but she's only spent £19.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14So, she's still got £231 burning a hole in her pocket.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19What a corker this is turning out to be!
0:12:19 > 0:12:21It's the cautious guile of the novice
0:12:21 > 0:12:24against the confident charm of the veteran,
0:12:24 > 0:12:26and they're taking no prisoners!
0:12:26 > 0:12:30What I want to do is get hold of Charlie and put him in here.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Trap him to stop him finding anything else.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Stop him getting there before me!
0:12:35 > 0:12:39The Charmer's not looking quite as confident as he did earlier on,
0:12:39 > 0:12:42and he's got good reason. Catherine has already sniffed out
0:12:42 > 0:12:46another potential purchase... a silver ice bucket.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- How much d'you want for it?- £100. - You are joking me!
0:12:49 > 0:12:52It doesn't matter where you start, it's where you finish!
0:12:52 > 0:12:56- What d'you want for it? - I'll take a tenner for it off you!
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Come on, can you do a little bit better on that?
0:13:01 > 0:13:03- One price, one price only.- OK.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05- Fiver.- Fiver. I think I will take that.
0:13:05 > 0:13:10I think I've got to make something on that. Someone will buy that from me.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Someone will buy this from me!
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Your friend was going to buy it off me for a tenner earlier on.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Charlie was going to buy it? You make me feel a bit better now.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Thank you very much.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- God bless you. Wish you all the luck in the world.- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Catherine has played a blinder.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28I'm quite happy with this.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31What a lovely little silver-plated ice bucket.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Quite commercial, 1930s, 1940s.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38But the thing that makes me even more happy is that Charlie
0:13:38 > 0:13:42tried to buy this earlier for £10, and I bought it for half!
0:13:42 > 0:13:46For £5. Just shows, there's even more bargains to be had!
0:13:46 > 0:13:47I'm going to keep looking.
0:13:47 > 0:13:54Stand back, people! Cunning Catherine is taking the gloves off.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57MUSIC: "Fighter" by Christina Aguilera
0:14:04 > 0:14:07She's gaining confidence.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Our lady's now on five purchases to Charlie's four, and next up,
0:14:10 > 0:14:13she bags a children's rocking horse for just £8.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Thank you very much.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Come on, laddie!
0:14:17 > 0:14:21Yes, Catherine is proving to be a real contender.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24Could it be the Charmer who's now on the ropes?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Can't find anything!
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Come on, Charmer, get cracking!
0:14:28 > 0:14:32With £216 still burning a hole in his pocket,
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Charlie makes a bee line back to an item he spotted earlier.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36A glazed urn.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39I saw this pot earlier, and I really loved it,
0:14:39 > 0:14:44- but I didn't like the price! - Oh, right! What would you...?
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- You've had an offer, have you? - Yes, I've had a couple of offers,
0:14:47 > 0:14:51but they're a bit low, so I wanted 25 for it.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- Would you take 18?- Yes.- You're a marvellous man, sir!- Thank you.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58And the Charmer's delighted with his purchase.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01- Pleasure to do business with you. - Nice to meet you.
0:15:01 > 0:15:06It's just such a glorious item. Good size, good glazing.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09What I particularly like is the name.
0:15:09 > 0:15:14T. Smith and Company, Canal Potteries, Old Kent Road!
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I think it's fantastic! It's going to look really good
0:15:17 > 0:15:18with dried flowers in it,
0:15:18 > 0:15:23or better still... a really nice chateau-bottled.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27Still one purchase behind Catherine, Charlie needs to stay focused.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Very Miss Southon, don't you think?
0:15:30 > 0:15:33You can take the mickey, Charlie, but Catherine's busy
0:15:33 > 0:15:35trying to extend her lead.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38She's spotted a framed Scottish whisky map.
0:15:38 > 0:15:42- Can I give you £2 for it? - No, you can't.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Physical impossibility. You can give me three.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Give me £3 and we'll all be happy.
0:15:47 > 0:15:52- £2.50, and a kiss and a cuddle. - I don't want a kiss and a cuddle.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- Don't need one.- I don't blame you! - I don't need one.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58- Can I give you £2.50, sir? - Yes, give me £2.50.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01- That would be jolly kind of you. Thank you, sir.- Thank you.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05Well, the offer of a hug and kiss might not have had
0:16:05 > 0:16:08quite the desired effect, but Catherine gets her item in the end.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11I quite like this.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15"A journey through Scotland to discover the finest whiskies."
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Each of them is marked on the map there.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21I know absolutely nothing about whiskies,
0:16:21 > 0:16:24but what I do know is somebody's going to like this.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27This is the sort of thing that I'm probably going to sell to a pub.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Or if not, just a whisky drinker.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33This car-boot's fast turning into a bargain wonderland
0:16:33 > 0:16:35for newcomer Catherine.
0:16:35 > 0:16:40And after picking up a wicker basket for £4.50, she's pleased as punch.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44That's got to make a profit! £4.50, I am definitely,
0:16:44 > 0:16:47definitely going to make a couple of pounds on this.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Determined to regain control,
0:16:49 > 0:16:52Charlie has launched a full-scale charm offensive.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55- What have you got in your pocket? - It's just a couple of medals.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57One's Australian, First World War...
0:16:57 > 0:17:03Australia service medal. Oh, yes. That's right. Number 455111,
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- J. Sissien?- Yes.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Beautifully made, aren't they? Beautifully made.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13- Are they for sale?- They are. 45 on both of them.- Have you?
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- What would you like to offer me? - Mmm, God!
0:17:16 > 0:17:18I could stretch to 25.
0:17:18 > 0:17:23- 28, it's a deal.- 28! Madam, you are an angel! Mwah!
0:17:23 > 0:17:27Yes, Charlie's notched up purchase number six for £28,
0:17:27 > 0:17:30and like a bargain-seeking missile,
0:17:30 > 0:17:33he's straight on to number seven, a candelabra.
0:17:33 > 0:17:34It's quite fun, isn't it?
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I wonder what part of the world it's from.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- It's not English, is it? - I don't know.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42No, it's definitely not English, this sort of scrolling,
0:17:42 > 0:17:45and I think it would be, with respect,
0:17:45 > 0:17:48- better quality if it were English. - Oh, right.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- I think it's silver-plated... - It is silver-plated, yes.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54If it was solid silver, I'd be pulling out the cash now!
0:17:54 > 0:17:57It's a good-looking object.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01At £50, the candelabra is Charlie's biggest splash of the day so far.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Thank you very much.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07Despite the buying bonanza, our warring warriors still have
0:18:07 > 0:18:10plenty of cash left to spend. But, time's ticking away,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13and the traders are starting to bag up and head home.
0:18:13 > 0:18:18And so begins the mad dash to the finishing line.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Cunning Catherine forks out £18 for a box of maps,
0:18:21 > 0:18:23hHer biggest spend of the day.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28This is my final, final purchase of the day.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32- And I'm sure I've said that before, so...thanks very much.- All right.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35I'm quite happy with this little box of maps.
0:18:35 > 0:18:381920s, 1930s, a few cycle maps there.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42I've got a couple of people in mind for these, so I'm pleased with them.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46Charlie's still pounding the aisles in the hope that a final forage
0:18:46 > 0:18:48will yield something exceptional.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52You are still in possession of about the only antique in this field!
0:18:52 > 0:18:53Am I?
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Yeah. Other than you and me, this is the oldest thing here!
0:18:57 > 0:19:00A Victorian, helmet-shaped coal scuttle!
0:19:02 > 0:19:05And in not bad condition. It's got a hole in the bottom,
0:19:05 > 0:19:11but, given the fact that it's 130-40 years old, it's really rather good.
0:19:11 > 0:19:18And what have we got here? Griffith and Browett, M&C, 1880.
0:19:18 > 0:19:19Well, that dates it for you.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22So, time to talk money.
0:19:22 > 0:19:23It's going to be 35.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Oh, I was going to say I could get 35 for it!
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- If I gave you 30, we'd have a deal. - No.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33- 32, then I'd make three quid. Oh, 32!- No.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- Oh, go on!- No.
0:19:35 > 0:19:36- Oh, please!- No.
0:19:36 > 0:19:41Looks like Charlie's ditched the charm, and is opting for petulance.
0:19:41 > 0:19:4233!
0:19:42 > 0:19:45I can only ask him, cos that ain't mine...
0:19:45 > 0:19:49Oh, it's not yours! Well, what are you doing? Whose is it?!
0:19:49 > 0:19:52- My friend's over there. - Where is he?!
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Well, how dare you negotiate for something...!
0:19:55 > 0:19:59Luckily, the owner of the coal scuttle hasn't gone home yet!
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- Can you do it for 33, sir?- No.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03- End of the day.- 35, please.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05Come on, sir.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12The Charmer knows when to say yes, and seals the deal at £35,
0:20:12 > 0:20:17bringing his haul for the day to a total of eight items.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Our duelling dealers are all booted out,
0:20:20 > 0:20:23but how do they tally up as today's buying comes to a close!
0:20:25 > 0:20:31Charlie and Catherine started out with £250 of their own money.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Veteran Charming Charlie ended the day with eight purchases,
0:20:34 > 0:20:38and a total spend of £165.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44New kid on the block, Cunning Catherine has one more item
0:20:44 > 0:20:49in the bag, but only spent a mere £57.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54Before they go their separate ways, our battle-weary booters
0:20:54 > 0:20:57have the chance to assess their opponents' weapons of war.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01I've never seen such a pile of old tat in all my life!
0:21:01 > 0:21:05Oh, don't be so cruel! Let's have a little look through yours.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Actually, not a bad little mixture. Don't like the plane.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Don't like the plane.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14- Don't like the stand.- Don't like the stand. Well, thank you very much.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18- My mother had a radio like that. - Did she?- Yes.
0:21:18 > 0:21:19That didn't work, either.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24Now, I saw that earlier. I like that.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- Decent quality. - I think it's quite nice.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29And a little birdie told me that you tried to buy this for 10.
0:21:29 > 0:21:33- I think it was probably 15. - 15. Fiver.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36I like that. I think that's worth 20, 30 quid of anybody's money.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40Well, look at this. What I like about it is the raised WC.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43- Ohhhh!- So, it'd be good for a little toilet.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45That is quality!
0:21:46 > 0:21:49Oh, Catherine, you've done the business there.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52- You like that.- I love that. Well, good luck.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55- I think we're going to need it, aren't we?- Well, you are!
0:21:55 > 0:21:57So am I!
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Having bagged all their car-boot booty,
0:22:03 > 0:22:06our mighty money makers now face an even tougher challenge.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09They've got to sell the lot,
0:22:09 > 0:22:11with the aim of making as much profit as they can!
0:22:11 > 0:22:16And all of that money will be going to their chosen charities.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Our duelling dealers return home to plot out their selling campaigns.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25The Charmer to leafy Oxfordshire...
0:22:25 > 0:22:29and the cunning one to Kent, the garden of England.
0:22:29 > 0:22:34I'm quite happy with what I bought, because I can see a profit...
0:22:34 > 0:22:36I think, on pretty much everything.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40My most favourite item probably has to be the ice bucket.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I think it'll probably clean up really well,
0:22:43 > 0:22:47and for £5, I will definitely make a nice profit on that.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51And what's even better is that Charlie wanted this for £15,
0:22:51 > 0:22:54and that makes me very happy cos I got it cheaper!
0:22:54 > 0:22:59My least favourite item...sadly, the rocking horse.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03The problem is selling it, because people who are looking to buy
0:23:03 > 0:23:07a rocking horse, mums for their children or whatever,
0:23:07 > 0:23:09they're going to want it to be in perfect condition.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13But I think it's going to be a bit of a struggle. Who knows?
0:23:13 > 0:23:17As well as her silver ice bucket and rocking horse,
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Catherine will also have to sell an antique iron,
0:23:20 > 0:23:24a retro style radio, a mirror and dressing table,
0:23:24 > 0:23:29a whisky map of Scotland, a wicker basket, six children's books
0:23:29 > 0:23:31and a box of maps.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35The Charmer is assessing his mighty arsenal.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39I'm pleased with what I bought. It's a little odd, my selection.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43I bought, actually, an antique. The ebonized torchiere.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45I think that won't be a problem to sell.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48It's a useful piece of furniture.
0:23:48 > 0:23:53Goodness knows why I bought the plane, but it was only £2.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55My silver-plated candelabra,
0:23:55 > 0:23:59I think that might well go to a European, perhaps an Italian dealer.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03They love big bits of silver plate.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06It's 20th century, but it's a lot for the money.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07Anyway, it's a challenge.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11Charlie also needs to sell his seven model Ferraris,
0:24:11 > 0:24:14a large JH Miller pot,
0:24:14 > 0:24:17two World War One medals,
0:24:17 > 0:24:21a coal scuttle...and one extremely heavy weight.
0:24:21 > 0:24:25Our canny competitors will be pulling out all the stops
0:24:25 > 0:24:27to find buyers.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31But, until they've shaken on it, and the money's changed hands,
0:24:31 > 0:24:33no deal is truly sealed.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36Determined to seize the advantage, the cunning one
0:24:36 > 0:24:37is first out of the traps.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41She takes her antique iron to her old friend, John.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45I need someone with a sense of humour. That's why I thought of you.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49And using her powers of alchemy, converts iron into pure hard cash,
0:24:49 > 0:24:54taking in £10.50 profit on her first sale.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57And with the bit between her teeth,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00our antiques thoroughbred sells her mirror and dressing table
0:25:00 > 0:25:05to a shop, and nets a hefty £38 profit in the process.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09Some powerful opening salvos from cunning Catherine.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12The Charmer is already playing catch-up.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15He's taking his wood plane to Roger,
0:25:15 > 0:25:17an old friend of his who's a carpenter.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21- Roger! I've come to interrupt your work!- Hello, Charlie.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- I went to a boot fair the other day. - Did you?- And I thought of you!
0:25:24 > 0:25:27- A-a-ah!- D'you know why I thought of you?
0:25:27 > 0:25:31- Go on, tell me.- A plane!
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Oh, look at that.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37That must be much, much better than any ones you've got.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40It's incredible how these old guys managed
0:25:40 > 0:25:45to use things like this and turn out the craftsmanship that they did.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49Now this just slides out like that to let the blade be adjusted,
0:25:49 > 0:25:54then all you do is tap that back in with a hammer, and then to use it...
0:25:54 > 0:25:57much the same as a modern plane, get hold of that, and away you go.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01- Yeah. Can't I tempt you?- I'm afraid not, Charlie. Thanks all the same.
0:26:01 > 0:26:08Frankly, if I can't sell this to you, who the hell can I sell it to?!
0:26:08 > 0:26:11- It was worth a try.- Absolutely. - Sorry to interrupt your day.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14That's all right. Lovely to see you any time.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17You've certainly ruined my day. Never mind.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20Oh, the Charmer denied!
0:26:20 > 0:26:25Yes, I did know a carpenter! No, he did not want my plane!
0:26:25 > 0:26:29What am I going to do now? Frankly, I haven't got a clue.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35Charlie is without a sale to his name.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37He's got to make up ground fast,
0:26:37 > 0:26:40because the selling tsunami that is Catherine
0:26:40 > 0:26:46is hoping for another whirlwind of profit, and she's playing on home turf.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48I've decided to go to the end of my road,
0:26:48 > 0:26:51and approach my local minister, who I know is Scottish,
0:26:51 > 0:26:53and likes a wee tipple.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59MUSIC: "Son of a Preacher Man" by Dusty Springfield
0:27:06 > 0:27:10- Hi, Bill, good to see you. - Hi, Catherine. Good to see you.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14Nice to see you. Well, I want to show you something.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17- What have you got?- I found this recently, and I thought of you.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Oh, right. What's that, then?
0:27:19 > 0:27:20What do you think?
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Oh, wow, fantastic.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24It's nice, isn't it?
0:27:24 > 0:27:26There's about 2,000 brands of malt whisky
0:27:26 > 0:27:28and they're all distinctive.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32I've not tried them all, personally, but I'm assured that they are.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- The Talisker on the Isle of Skye is a favourite of mine.- Oh, really?
0:27:35 > 0:27:39Absolutely. That's right. Unfortunately, it's only a picture.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41Yeah, I know. That would be nice.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Ideally, I'd like to get about £30 for this.
0:27:44 > 0:27:45- Well...- How does that sound?
0:27:45 > 0:27:48I was thinking, that's roughly what you'd pay
0:27:48 > 0:27:51- for a bottle of decent whisky. - Oh, right.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53So, I would give you the price of a bottle of whisky
0:27:53 > 0:27:55for this picture of whisky.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58- It's a reasonable deal. - That sounds very reasonable to me.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01- Shall we shake on that?- I'd be more than happy to shake on that.
0:28:01 > 0:28:02Thank you, Bill.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05All Catherine's prayers are answered in one,
0:28:05 > 0:28:10as she's blessed with a heavenly profit of nearly £28. Hallelujah!
0:28:13 > 0:28:17It's a long race, but the Charmer is now in danger of being lapped.
0:28:17 > 0:28:22He needs to put his foot down on the selling accelerator.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Well, I've booked a very interesting day.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28I am going to go into the Cotswolds with all my Ferraris.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31I've £15 worth of Ferraris,
0:28:31 > 0:28:35and, hopefully, sell them to a man that's got a real Ferrari!
0:28:45 > 0:28:49I'm here to see Martin Chisholm, Mr Vintage Car!
0:28:53 > 0:28:58- So, how many Ferraris have you got here?- Three, I think.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01Well, how about having...seven more.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06They're quite good models. They're well made.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08They're very, very good models.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11If they were real, which is the most valuable one?
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Well, in terms of value, there's the 250 GTO.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19They made 36 of these and there was one sold last year for 27,000,000.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21- Then, I would say... - That's a Testarossa.
0:29:21 > 0:29:28Testarossa, 250 Testarossa, which translated means "red head."
0:29:28 > 0:29:31You can see, it's got red engine coils here on the...
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Are these something I could sell you?
0:29:33 > 0:29:3650 quid for the lot. Seven Ferraris for 50 quid.
0:29:37 > 0:29:43I can see damage on the paintwork there. I'll give you 40 for the lot.
0:29:43 > 0:29:47- Go on. I think that's fair enough. Put your hand there.- Done.
0:29:47 > 0:29:53Rev your engines. Charlie burns up a profit of £25 from that £40 sale.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56The Charmer is back in the race.
0:30:00 > 0:30:05Catherine Southon, THIS is the way to sell your items
0:30:05 > 0:30:08from the boot fair. Take her away, Chisholm!
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Oh, just look at him go!
0:30:13 > 0:30:17The Charmer's at his best when his back's against the wall.
0:30:17 > 0:30:22And he knows he needs to make every sale count now, pound for pound.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Well, I've arrived at Pete Rymer's farm.
0:30:27 > 0:30:31He's an old chum from the rugby club, and he says he wants to buy
0:30:31 > 0:30:32a cast-iron weight.
0:30:32 > 0:30:36But he won't tell me what he wants to do with it.
0:30:36 > 0:30:41- No, but he certainly will hear you coming!- Old weights for new!
0:30:41 > 0:30:45Old weights for new, Mr Rymer! Well, how are you?
0:30:46 > 0:30:49- How lovely to see you?- How are you? Is it a local scrap man?
0:30:49 > 0:30:54You can't live without. Look at that. Isn't that wonderful?
0:30:54 > 0:30:58- It's a whopper!- It's a whopper! - I'll let you lift it up!
0:30:58 > 0:31:01CHARLIE GROANS
0:31:03 > 0:31:06I sent you an image of that, and you fell in love with it.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09Well, I did actually. I had an immediate use for it.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Over there, we've got Hang On Harry.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16- Why's he called Hang On Harry? - Well, because you have to hang on!
0:31:16 > 0:31:18Or else, you're on the floor.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21But the biggest problem I have with him, Harry is a big chap,
0:31:21 > 0:31:24and as you can see, I'm quite short.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27So we have a problem.
0:31:27 > 0:31:28So where's this going?
0:31:28 > 0:31:31I'd struggle to get on him without a bit of help.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34And when I saw this, I immediately thought,
0:31:34 > 0:31:39'That's an extra couple of foot. I can stand on it...and get on him!
0:31:39 > 0:31:41Without a leg-up.
0:31:41 > 0:31:46- How heavy do you reckon that is? - Ooh-a-ar! 25-30 kilos?
0:31:46 > 0:31:48- Is it?- Yeah.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50About a pound a kilo, then.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52- A pound a kilo?- Yeah.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54- 30 quid for that?!- Yeah.
0:31:54 > 0:31:58You're a hard man to do business with. 28!
0:31:58 > 0:32:01Cor...d'you know, the reason I asked for 30,
0:32:01 > 0:32:04I thought you were going to offer me 10!
0:32:04 > 0:32:0628, sold! That's a deal!
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Ho-ho, what a weight off my mind.
0:32:12 > 0:32:18What a weight off my body, and to think of it...twenty-weight quid!
0:32:18 > 0:32:19Go, Charlie!
0:32:19 > 0:32:26Our dapper dealer canters away with £16 profit, and the race is back on.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28He gets £12 profit for his medals...
0:32:32 > 0:32:35..and £7 profit from his JH Miller pot.
0:32:37 > 0:32:41But is it enough for our warhorse to catch up
0:32:41 > 0:32:43with our cunning thoroughbred?
0:32:46 > 0:32:50After a slow start, charmer Charlie has now sold
0:32:50 > 0:32:54four of his eight items, and has made £60 profit.
0:32:54 > 0:32:59Cunning Catherine had an almighty start, but it's not in the bag yet.
0:32:59 > 0:33:03From the three purchases sold so far, she's netted £76 of profit.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07Great Britain!
0:33:07 > 0:33:11Rolling countryside, picturesque villages, cosmopolitan cities
0:33:11 > 0:33:14and historic towns. There are so many selling opportunities
0:33:14 > 0:33:18across our beautiful land.
0:33:18 > 0:33:22But, Catherine's keeping things simple, taking her basket
0:33:22 > 0:33:25and the radio, which she's spent £2 having PAT tested,
0:33:25 > 0:33:27down the road to her contact, Sophie.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29- Hello, how are you? - Fine, thank you.
0:33:29 > 0:33:34Good, right, well, I've got a couple of things to show you.
0:33:34 > 0:33:39First of all, now you asked me for something for storage.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42I'm afraid I didn't get you a trunk, but I did get you
0:33:42 > 0:33:44this rather nice wicker basket.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46I would be looking at about £20 for that.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49- How does that sound? - Yeah, 20 would be fine.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52Something else, a bargain I have got for you.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56This is completely different.
0:33:56 > 0:34:00- Very exciting. Oh, Catherine, that's brilliant!- Isn't that fantastic?
0:34:00 > 0:34:03Absolutely brilliant. I've always wanted it.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06It's very retro, isn't it? It's quite funky.
0:34:06 > 0:34:10Now these were made, originally, in the '60s and '70s,
0:34:10 > 0:34:14but this is a more modern reproduction, if you like.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16Would you be happy with 20 for that and 20 for this?
0:34:16 > 0:34:20- That's a really good deal.- Are you sure?- Yeah.- That's wonderful.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Well, I'm happy with that. - Thanks, Catherine.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26Yes, nice work from our lady.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29The fully tested retro radio gets a great reception
0:34:29 > 0:34:32and a profit to the tune of £9.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36Weaving the basket into the sale nets a profit of nearly £16.
0:34:39 > 0:34:44The profit divide is widening again, and the Charmer needs to make
0:34:44 > 0:34:48a bold move if he's to stand any chance of catching up.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52He's decided to take his candelabra to local auctioneer, Joe.
0:34:52 > 0:34:57- Ah-ha! Here comes the boss. How are you?- Very well.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59Nice to see you. Very impressive.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01- It is quite impressive, isn't it? - It is.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04- It's quite heavy.- It certainly is.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06I need you to get me out of a hole, here.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10I bought this specifically with somebody in mind.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13- And when you do that, they don't want it, do they?- Absolutely.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17What can you get me for it? I'm not going to put a reserve on it.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20I'm a believer of putting things into auction and letting them go.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23I think, pre-sale estimate, £50-80.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27We'll just see how we can...persuade them to bid.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30That's brilliant. We'll see how it goes.
0:35:30 > 0:35:34We'll find out later if Charlie's big gamble will pay off.
0:35:34 > 0:35:37The cunning one has arranged a meeting with Lorraine,
0:35:37 > 0:35:38the owner of her local pub.
0:35:38 > 0:35:44- I've got something to show you - are you ready?- Right.- OK...
0:35:44 > 0:35:47- There we are.- Right, OK. - What d'you think?
0:35:47 > 0:35:52Well, it's a little small. I love the rim round the top.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55- Lovely quality. - What age is this?
0:35:55 > 0:35:57It's difficult to be certain.
0:35:57 > 0:36:01I would probably date it to about 20, 30 years.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03What are you asking for it?
0:36:04 > 0:36:07Well, what I would really like would be about £50.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09I was thinking more 25.
0:36:09 > 0:36:13- Oh, that's quite a big drop, isn't it?- Can we say 40?
0:36:16 > 0:36:18You drive a hard bargain.
0:36:18 > 0:36:23Is that a 40? Is that a 40? Oh, wonderful! That's fantastic.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25Thank you very much indeed.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28Surely now the champagne's on ice for the cunning one,
0:36:28 > 0:36:33as the cork of profit pops to a tasty £35.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38Charlie is in no mood for celebration.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41He's powering through Buckinghamshire,
0:36:41 > 0:36:43on a mission to sell his torchiere.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45And, if he wants to stay in this competition,
0:36:45 > 0:36:47he needs to get a good price.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54Now, I've had somebody in mind for this for some time.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57Justin Lavender, professor at the Royal College of Music.
0:36:57 > 0:37:01I sent him an image, and he said "That's just what I need
0:37:01 > 0:37:02"to go behind my piano."
0:37:02 > 0:37:05Could I get together with him? Absolutely impossible!
0:37:05 > 0:37:08He works 24 hours a day. So I said to him,
0:37:08 > 0:37:11"Nominate somebody to act on your behalf.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14"They can negotiate on your behalf." And that's why I'm here.
0:37:14 > 0:37:18Ally, who lives here, is a friend of Justin's, a friend of mine,
0:37:18 > 0:37:20and the good thing is...
0:37:20 > 0:37:23he is not here to say he doesn't like it.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26You might want to shut your boot, Charlie.
0:37:28 > 0:37:29Where is she?
0:37:31 > 0:37:33I think she's trying to avoid me.
0:37:35 > 0:37:41Ah, there you are! He said, walking in rather an awkward fashion!
0:37:41 > 0:37:44Here we are! This is for Justin, we hope.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48- What do you think?- Ye-es.
0:37:48 > 0:37:51- Do you think Justin will like it? - That'll do fine.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Goodie! I want 60 quid for it.
0:37:56 > 0:38:00You'll have to go a bit lower than that, I'm afraid. What about 40?
0:38:02 > 0:38:03Ooh! 45?
0:38:03 > 0:38:06Mmm...40.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11- Not going to move, are you?- No.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13Shake on that. 40 quid, baby!
0:38:14 > 0:38:18Nice work, Charlie. That £35 profit keeps you in the game.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21This competition could still go either way, and cunning Catherine
0:38:21 > 0:38:26is pulling out all the stops for those last crucial sales.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29I've had a bit of a brainwave and I've brought it along
0:38:29 > 0:38:33to a local children's club. I'm going to show it to the children,
0:38:33 > 0:38:35and hopefully, it'll find its new home here.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Hi, children! How you doing?
0:38:38 > 0:38:40ALL SPEAK AT ONCE
0:38:41 > 0:38:46I have bought you something special. Any ideas what this is? Hands up.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49- What d'you think it is?- A rocking horse?- A rocking horse.
0:38:49 > 0:38:53Well, shall we take a look? Are you ready for this? ALL: Yeah.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Da-da-a-a-a!
0:38:56 > 0:39:00D'you like it? Angela, I'm going to ask you about this,
0:39:00 > 0:39:03cos you're the one that's going to decide on this.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06- Whether you're going to buy this horse.- I think it's lovely,
0:39:06 > 0:39:09- and he could be a club mascot. - Oh, that's nice.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12And I'm sure some of the younger ones would love to have a little go.
0:39:12 > 0:39:19- So, I think, on balance, maybe, we should buy the horse.- Do you?
0:39:19 > 0:39:21I like your thinking, Angela.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24I would be looking for £30.
0:39:26 > 0:39:2815?
0:39:28 > 0:39:3315. I'd like a little bit more, if possible.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39I'm getting lots of whispers in my ear.
0:39:39 > 0:39:42I think maybe we could go to 20.
0:39:42 > 0:39:4720? Well, £20 would be wonderful, I'd be very happy with that.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49- So, shall we shake on 20?- Fantastic.
0:39:49 > 0:39:54£20, thank you very much. Shake on you, and you, and you.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58Catherine makes £12 profit on the rocking horse.
0:40:00 > 0:40:03And then goes on to sell her box of maps and Enid Blyton books
0:40:03 > 0:40:05for a combined profit of £20.50.
0:40:05 > 0:40:10- Thank you very much. - Thank you very much, Ross, thank you.
0:40:10 > 0:40:14With the finishing line looming, Charlie sells his wood plane
0:40:14 > 0:40:19for a profit of £3 and his coal scuttle for a profit of £5.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24But it's now the moment of truth for the Charmer.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27His candelabra has gone under the hammer. He's about to find out
0:40:27 > 0:40:29how it did.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31My candelabra was sold a few days ago, at auction.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34I was away, and I don't know how much it made.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36Here goes.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38It's old Charlie here.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40You kindly sold, well, I hope you sold
0:40:40 > 0:40:44a silver-plated candelabrum for me.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48Can you tell me how much it made?
0:40:48 > 0:40:50Fab. Okey-dokey. Lovely.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53Thanks. OK, bye.
0:40:53 > 0:40:58Ha-ha! Roscoe is out of trouble!
0:40:58 > 0:41:01Well, the Charmer's sounding confident,
0:41:01 > 0:41:03but has that sale sealed it for Charlie?
0:41:03 > 0:41:06We'll find out very shortly.
0:41:06 > 0:41:10Our fierce fighters have bravely battled their way through
0:41:10 > 0:41:12an epic competition today.
0:41:12 > 0:41:16They both started out with £250 of their own money.
0:41:16 > 0:41:22Charming Charlie spent £165 on eight purchases, and Cunning Catherine
0:41:22 > 0:41:27bought nine items, but spent just £59, including costs.
0:41:27 > 0:41:30But now, it's all about profit.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33All the money Catherine and Charlie have made from today's challenge
0:41:33 > 0:41:37will be going to a charity of their choice. So, without further ado,
0:41:37 > 0:41:39let's find out who is today's
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is champion.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45- Ah-ha-haaa!- Hello, Charlie.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47- Mwah! How are you?- Fine, thank you.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Have you warmed up yet?
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Well, I have now. That boot sale was...
0:41:51 > 0:41:53- Was it cold?- Freezing.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55But you bought reasonably well.
0:41:55 > 0:41:57I did buy "reasonably well"!
0:41:57 > 0:41:59- Couple of hopeless things...- Me?!
0:41:59 > 0:42:03- What about your ghastly candelabra?- Made a profit.
0:42:03 > 0:42:07- Yeah, right. That was horrible. - It wasn't very nice, was it?- No.
0:42:07 > 0:42:11But it was probably marginally better than your linen basket
0:42:11 > 0:42:14or your wicker basket or whatever sort of basket it was.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17- Don't knock my basket, Charlie. - Did you profit?
0:42:17 > 0:42:20I'm not saying anything. Remember that ice bucket, as well?
0:42:20 > 0:42:22I wanted to buy that ice bucket. You stole it!
0:42:22 > 0:42:24You should have, Charlie.
0:42:24 > 0:42:28Oh! D'you know, I've got a horrible feeling you've won this one.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30- Shall we have a look? - I don't really want to.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33- Let's just see. Ready? - I'm not very confident.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35BOTH: One, two, three!
0:42:38 > 0:42:41Ohhhh! What a thrashing!
0:42:41 > 0:42:44Come on, Charlie, I'll buy you a drink.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47You jolly well need to buy me two drinks!
0:42:47 > 0:42:50A decisive win for newcomer Catherine.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54Despite the feigned glee, Charlie's gamble at auction didn't pay off.
0:42:54 > 0:42:59The candelabra made just over £3 profit after costs.
0:42:59 > 0:43:03My profit of 100 odd was OK, but not enough.
0:43:03 > 0:43:07And Catherine gave me a good thrashing. I take my hat off to her.
0:43:07 > 0:43:09And the secret to my success?
0:43:09 > 0:43:12Well, I bought lots of low-value items,
0:43:12 > 0:43:14and I sold them incredibly well.
0:43:14 > 0:43:18Catherine can't celebrate for long. Tomorrow we're taking our dealers
0:43:18 > 0:43:22to their preferred territory, the auction rooms.
