This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is -

0:00:020:00:04

the show that takes the titans of the antiques trade

0:00:040:00:08

-and pitches them against each other...

-Mwah!

0:00:080:00:11

to see who can make the most money...from buying and selling.

0:00:110:00:16

It's amazing, truly amazing!

0:00:160:00:18

Buckle up and get ready for the ride of your life -

0:00:180:00:22

it's the Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Showdown,

0:00:220:00:25

the greatest challenge our experts have faced yet.

0:00:250:00:29

Two heavyweights of the antiques world will be tested to the max,

0:00:290:00:33

as they have to dig deep at four different buying venues

0:00:330:00:36

to find antiques and collectibles to sell on for maximum profit.

0:00:360:00:40

Sold! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:00:420:00:44

Coming up - Charlie shows us how NOT to do it...

0:00:440:00:48

I offered 50, he said 50! Bother - wish I'd offered 40!

0:00:480:00:52

..Catherine goes on a - hmm-hmm - spending frenzy...

0:00:520:00:56

20p? Oh, come on!

0:00:560:00:59

..and Charlie tries to reel in a millionaire.

0:00:590:01:02

Morning, Chris! I've brought a fishing reel for you.

0:01:020:01:05

-I won't like it.

-Why?

-Sorry, you're a nice guy, but I won't want it.

0:01:050:01:09

There will be highs and lows, but there can only be one winner.

0:01:090:01:12

This is the Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Showdown!

0:01:120:01:16

Welcome to the Showdown,

0:01:290:01:31

pitting two of our most highly-trained antiques experts

0:01:310:01:35

against each other in the ultimate challenge.

0:01:350:01:38

Two of the antiques world's most prestigious professionals -

0:01:380:01:43

the First Lady of Cunning, Catherine Southon,

0:01:430:01:45

a woman who drives the hardest of bargains...

0:01:450:01:49

-How about £7?

-How about £6.50?

0:01:490:01:52

Oh, you are a one!

0:01:520:01:54

..going up against our smooth- talking international auctioneer

0:01:540:01:57

Charlie "The Charmer" Ross.

0:01:570:02:00

-How about 15?

-Sold.

0:02:010:02:03

We will test their knowledge, stamina and know-how to the absolute limit,

0:02:030:02:08

so let's find out what's in store.

0:02:080:02:12

-Catherine!

-Charlie, me old fruit! Mwah! Mwah!

0:02:120:02:15

-How are you?

-OK. A bit nervous about this, though.

0:02:150:02:18

-You've got an envelope.

-I have.

-So have I! Ready away!

0:02:180:02:22

Catherine and Charlie - welcome to your last and biggest challenge yet,

0:02:220:02:26

the Showdown.

0:02:260:02:28

You must each buy eight items during your regular Put Your Money challenges.

0:02:280:02:34

-You have to buy two at each event.

-Mm-hmm.

0:02:340:02:36

You can spend up to £1,000 of your own money.

0:02:360:02:40

You can sell up to four items wherever you want.

0:02:400:02:44

The remaining items will go into an auction, which will be in Warwickshire,

0:02:440:02:48

in approximately eight weeks from now, in direct competition with your opponent -

0:02:480:02:53

-that's you, darling.

-Oh - so it is.

0:02:530:02:56

Choose your items wisely. The winner will be the one who makes the most profit.

0:02:560:03:01

-Good luck.

-I'll see you later. Mwah!

0:03:010:03:03

Both our antiques giants have £1,000 of their own money

0:03:030:03:07

including any restoration, repairs and buying fees.

0:03:070:03:11

It's a fierce competition, but who will make the most profit?

0:03:110:03:15

They must each buy two items at each of their usual hunting grounds -

0:03:150:03:20

a UK antiques fair,

0:03:200:03:23

an auction, a car-boot sale

0:03:230:03:26

and a foreign antiques market.

0:03:260:03:29

First up is the Ardleigh car-boot sale in Essex.

0:03:320:03:36

Of all the buying environments our experts will face,

0:03:360:03:41

this will have the cheapest items on offer,

0:03:410:03:44

so they need to find the best profit-makers

0:03:440:03:47

-and

-save enough money for the rounds ahead.

0:03:470:03:50

Charlie pounces on an opportunity to strike an early deal...

0:03:500:03:54

A couple of chaps just said to me, "Hello, you got any tips?"

0:03:540:03:58

Well, I haven't got any tips for them, but they have got

0:03:580:04:01

rather a nice fishing reel - I'm not expert on fishing reels,

0:04:010:04:05

but I'm hoping to buy it. Gentlemen! I spotted this, it looks quite fun.

0:04:050:04:10

-Did you buy this here today?

-Yes, I did.

0:04:100:04:13

-Are you looking to sell it?

-If the price is right.

-Of course you are!

0:04:130:04:17

-It's great, a snapper reel.

-Yeah.

-How much do you want for it - tenner?

0:04:170:04:21

-No, 18.

-18?

-Yeah.

0:04:210:04:23

I'll give you 18 quid if you promise to tell me what you paid for it.

0:04:230:04:28

-Yep.

-Good man, you hold on to that.

0:04:280:04:30

-£18... There we go, sir.

-Thank you very much.

0:04:300:04:34

I thank you very much indeed. Now, what did you pay for it earlier?

0:04:340:04:38

-Tenner.

-A tenner? Oh, well, that's not too bad, is it?

-No.

0:04:380:04:41

-Pleasure to do business with you.

-See you later.

0:04:410:04:44

First catch of the day to Mr Ross, a fishing reel for just £18.

0:04:440:04:48

REEL CLICKS

0:04:480:04:50

Now I've just got to reel in a profit!

0:04:500:04:53

Charlie knows he can't stop there - the Showdown is a case of sink or swim.

0:04:530:04:58

I've got the fishing reel, I'm about to buy the boat...

0:04:580:05:02

Which way's the sea?

0:05:020:05:05

# We are sailing...! #

0:05:050:05:08

Plain sailing for Charlie so far,

0:05:080:05:10

but Catherine's spotted a Belleek preserve bowl and milk jug.

0:05:100:05:15

-How much do you want for your Belleek?

-I want 60, dear.

0:05:150:05:19

Can you do any better than that?

0:05:190:05:21

-50.

-Could we do 40?

0:05:210:05:23

-£45, and I'll have a little think. Thank you.

-Thank you.

0:05:230:05:27

Catherine leaves the deal to ponder,

0:05:270:05:29

a dangerous tactic in a competitive market,

0:05:290:05:32

where hesitation can spell disaster.

0:05:320:05:36

I don't know whether to go back. It's a bit of a gamble, but...

0:05:360:05:40

Oh, I'll tell you what, actually, I'm going to go back.

0:05:400:05:44

With the deal on a knife-edge, can Catherine negotiate a reduction

0:05:440:05:48

on the £45 asking price?

0:05:480:05:51

-43?

-43...

0:05:510:05:54

Still too much, I've got to make a profit on this.

0:05:540:05:58

-Can we meet in the middle and say 40?

-If that's your best offer.

0:05:580:06:01

OK. Shall we shake on it? Thank you.

0:06:010:06:04

Deal done - the Cunning One spends just £40.

0:06:040:06:08

I'm happy, it's quite nice to see something with a bit of age,

0:06:080:06:11

and with a nice mark on it. Belleek is a great factory

0:06:110:06:15

in County Fermanagh in Ireland.

0:06:150:06:17

They always make quite good money at auction.

0:06:170:06:20

These ones aren't so collectible, they're a bit later,

0:06:200:06:24

about 1920s to 1940s. Would have been nice to get them a bit cheaper.

0:06:240:06:28

Someone wants them - they just don't know it yet.

0:06:280:06:31

While Catherine worries she may have spent too much on her first buy,

0:06:310:06:36

The Charmer has no such concerns about his second item.

0:06:360:06:40

Do you know, it was a pound - one pound!

0:06:400:06:43

I bought it because I play golf, very badly,

0:06:430:06:46

and I'm dying to know what golf course it was.

0:06:460:06:49

It's after an original by somebody called Roy Perry.

0:06:490:06:53

It is of course just a print, and it's in this rather naff frame,

0:06:530:06:57

which have use seen - just have a look at this!

0:06:570:07:00

It's been artificially woodwormed.

0:07:000:07:04

They've gone, "Bong, bong, bong, bong," to pretend it's an old frame

0:07:040:07:07

and it looks like the worm have eaten it.

0:07:070:07:10

But it's visually quite good and the most exciting thing is,

0:07:100:07:13

having bought it for a pound, the man that sold it to me

0:07:130:07:16

had second thoughts and offered me £2 for it and I turned it down.

0:07:160:07:19

Charlie bags item number two, a golfing print, for just £1.

0:07:210:07:26

Someone else with a birdie in sight is Cunning Catherine.

0:07:260:07:31

This owl, for some reason, is staring at me.

0:07:310:07:34

-What could you do on this?

-50p on that. Half price.

0:07:340:07:38

20p.

0:07:380:07:39

I'll do 50p for you.

0:07:390:07:41

-30p?

-I'm dropping it to half price for you.

0:07:410:07:44

-40?

-50.

0:07:440:07:47

Shall we say 40? Come on, let's shake on it.

0:07:470:07:49

Go on then, 40p.

0:07:490:07:51

Brilliant. There we are.

0:07:510:07:53

She drives a hard bargain,

0:07:530:07:54

an owl pot stand for just 40 pence.

0:07:540:07:57

The first round of this buying bonanza draws to a close

0:07:570:08:00

so let's see how much our dealers have spent so far.

0:08:000:08:05

They each had a budget of £1,000.

0:08:050:08:09

Charlie "The Charmer" Ross has hardly dipped in to his kitty,

0:08:090:08:12

spending only £19.

0:08:120:08:14

That leaves him with a very luxurious £981

0:08:140:08:17

for the rest of the showdown.

0:08:170:08:20

Cunning Catherine Southon spent just over £40,

0:08:200:08:23

leaving her with a little under £960 still to spend.

0:08:230:08:28

They've both saved the bulk of their bounty for later,

0:08:280:08:30

which is good news

0:08:300:08:32

because they've still got three more rounds to get through.

0:08:320:08:35

And so to round two, the auction,

0:08:360:08:39

and it's time to wage war

0:08:390:08:41

in the Anglo-Saxon town of Market Harborough.

0:08:410:08:44

Armed with their spears of knowledge

0:08:440:08:47

and shields of antique understanding,

0:08:470:08:50

our warriors will fight their way through 760 lots

0:08:500:08:53

to conquer the best bargains.

0:08:530:08:55

Here they both need to bag two more items for their showdown extravaganza.

0:08:550:09:00

After nearly a decade working at Sotheby's, Cunning Miss Southon feels right at home here.

0:09:000:09:05

Time is ticking away and it's not long before she clocks an interesting timepiece.

0:09:050:09:10

I do quite like these Art Nouveau garnitures and they do sell well,

0:09:120:09:16

but I don't really think it's got a huge amount going for it.

0:09:160:09:20

It's got a really punchy estimate as well, 150-250.

0:09:200:09:24

I think if it goes sort of low end, perhaps 150, up to 160,

0:09:240:09:29

I might have a go, but I'm going to stick to my guns and not go beyond that

0:09:290:09:33

because I think it's going to be a bit hard to sell.

0:09:330:09:35

Catherine is quick to spot another item that catches her interest. But what is it?

0:09:350:09:39

What we've got here is a chamber stick.

0:09:390:09:43

It's marked in the catalogue as probably by Archibald Knox.

0:09:430:09:47

Archibald Knox was working for Liberty and Co.

0:09:470:09:49

He designed quite a lot of items, predominantly a jewellery designer

0:09:490:09:53

but he did lots of items in Arts and Crafts, Art Nouveau style.

0:09:530:09:56

Problem is there's a little bit of damage here.

0:09:560:09:59

And here.

0:09:590:10:02

But I think that I might have someone for it.

0:10:020:10:05

So if we can go with that, I think it's going to be worth a go.

0:10:050:10:08

Catherine knows there's a market for the piece,

0:10:080:10:11

but that could also mean stiff competition in the bidding.

0:10:110:10:14

Now, we haven't heard anything yet from Charlie,

0:10:140:10:17

and the auction has begun.

0:10:170:10:19

But the Charmer's been busy working his way

0:10:190:10:22

through the catalogue, and there's a Vera Huggins Royal Doulton vase coming up that he's got his eye on.

0:10:220:10:28

The vase at £100, I'm bid at £100. 110. 120.

0:10:280:10:31

130, do I see it? 130.

0:10:310:10:33

140. 140. Bid at 140. 150.

0:10:330:10:36

I've got 150. 160. At 160, now. At 160. 170.

0:10:360:10:39

170, I'm bid at 170. The bid's in the room at 170. Now buying at 170.

0:10:390:10:43

-170.

-Selling at 170.

0:10:430:10:46

-Oh, I'm buying a Vera!

-That's 752.

0:10:460:10:48

And it's Charlie who's first out of the traps.

0:10:480:10:51

He's bought a Royal Doulton vase for just under £201, including fees.

0:10:510:10:56

I think I might even have a buyer.

0:10:580:11:01

Catherine is wasting no time, either.

0:11:010:11:03

She launches into bidding on the marble clock.

0:11:030:11:06

170 to bid into that is 165.

0:11:060:11:08

170, now at 170.

0:11:080:11:10

-Five, if you like.

-Five.

0:11:100:11:12

175.

0:11:120:11:14

It's Miss Southon against the internet.

0:11:140:11:16

She's against the whole world!

0:11:160:11:18

175, I'm bid. At 175. Fair warning. I will sell.

0:11:180:11:22

It's mine.

0:11:220:11:24

And no surprise, the Cunning One beats the whole world

0:11:240:11:27

and takes the clock set for £206.50, including fees.

0:11:270:11:33

I see you bought a clock set.

0:11:330:11:35

Have you no taste at all, woman?

0:11:350:11:38

-Listen.

-Where is it?

0:11:380:11:40

-Did you look at it?

-No.

0:11:400:11:42

It's garniture. It's Art Deco.

0:11:420:11:45

-Beautiful(!)

-It's not your thing, is it?

0:11:450:11:48

I should think you'd get 120 for it.

0:11:480:11:51

Cheeky!

0:11:510:11:52

The Charmer may not have eyes for the clock set but the chamber stick's a different story.

0:11:520:11:56

208 is a pewter chamber stick.

0:11:560:12:00

-Opening bid here, £50.

-I think Charlie's going to go for it, too.

0:12:000:12:04

80. 90.

0:12:040:12:06

-Hang on, don't panic.

-£90. I'm hearing 95. 100.

0:12:060:12:09

100, I'm bid. At £100. 110, I'll take.

0:12:090:12:12

-110. 120.

-125.

0:12:120:12:16

-130.

-35.

0:12:160:12:17

At 135, it's in the room at 135.

0:12:170:12:19

Our experts are going head-to-head.

0:12:190:12:21

£135. 140.

0:12:210:12:24

Was that Miss Southon?

0:12:250:12:28

140. I'll take five.

0:12:280:12:30

-I've lost my number!

-145.

0:12:300:12:34

-Let him have it.

-145.

0:12:340:12:37

-Was that me?

-That's you.

-Oh, bother.

0:12:370:12:40

LAUGHTER

0:12:400:12:42

Catherine's not happy.

0:12:420:12:44

They fought tooth and nail but Charlie takes

0:12:440:12:47

the Archibald Knox chamber stick for just over £171 with fees.

0:12:470:12:52

Cunning Catherine still needs one more item

0:12:520:12:56

and starts to bid blind on a pair of mirrors.

0:12:560:12:58

30. £30.

0:12:590:13:02

Still in the room at £30.

0:13:020:13:04

I just bought a couple of mirrors. I haven't even seen them.

0:13:050:13:09

Two mirrors bought for a little over £35, including fees.

0:13:090:13:13

But without seeing them before the bidding,

0:13:130:13:15

how does Catherine feel upon reflection?

0:13:150:13:18

This is OK.

0:13:180:13:21

It's what I thought it was going to be, to be honest.

0:13:210:13:23

Edwardian mirror. Got the cross banding, there. It's not bad.

0:13:230:13:27

This, which comes with it, is absolutely ghastly.

0:13:270:13:31

SCREAMING

0:13:310:13:34

That is not good news.

0:13:350:13:37

Oh, dear. While Catherine takes a long, hard look at herself,

0:13:370:13:42

we move on to assess our warriors' war chests.

0:13:420:13:46

From the £1,000 they started with, Charlie has now spent just

0:13:470:13:51

under £391, leaving him with a little over £609 in his kitty.

0:13:510:13:57

Catherine, meanwhile, has spent a touch over £282,

0:13:570:14:01

leaving her with just under £718 for the last two rounds.

0:14:010:14:07

For the penultimate round, our duelling dealers will be

0:14:080:14:12

competing against one another at the Newark International

0:14:120:14:15

Antiques and Collectibles Fair in Nottinghamshire.

0:14:150:14:19

They both have well over half their kitties to spend

0:14:190:14:22

so they can afford to look at more expensive items.

0:14:220:14:25

And the Charmer is feeling confident.

0:14:250:14:29

The people here are traders. They want to sell.

0:14:290:14:33

And, by and large, they base their selling on what the cost price was.

0:14:330:14:37

So here is the place where I'm going to make my money for the showdown.

0:14:370:14:42

Yes, like a Basset hound, Charlie soon sniffs out a bargain,

0:14:420:14:46

but our well-trained tracker, Catherine, isn't far behind.

0:14:460:14:49

Ah-hah! What have you found here, Charlie?

0:14:490:14:52

A very, very pretty little satinwood Edwardian cabinet,

0:14:520:14:55

which I'm falling in love with.

0:14:550:14:58

-Are you going to buy it?

-I'm going to try.

0:14:580:15:00

-It depends how much money it is.

-I'll leave you to it.

0:15:000:15:03

MUSIC: "Je T'aime (Moi, Non Plus)" by Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg.

0:15:030:15:08

It may be love at first sight for Charlie

0:15:080:15:11

but the Queen of Classics is looking for something a little more unusual.

0:15:110:15:15

I like this. This is silver and it's a little trug, a little gardener's trug.

0:15:150:15:20

If you turn it round, it's got a lovely, clear hallmark.

0:15:200:15:23

Nice maker's initials, there.

0:15:230:15:25

JD and Sons. James Dixon and Sons.

0:15:250:15:28

Priced up at £89, which is a bit punchy,

0:15:280:15:30

but I think I might give it a go.

0:15:300:15:33

And while Charlie's lost in adoration for his cabinet,

0:15:330:15:36

Catherine takes the initiative

0:15:360:15:39

and blasts her way to her first purchase of the day.

0:15:390:15:42

I paid £70 for it, which was slightly more than I wanted to pay.

0:15:420:15:45

I was hoping to get it around the £60 mark

0:15:450:15:48

but he just would not budge.

0:15:480:15:50

Good work by Catherine.

0:15:500:15:53

And now, at last, Charlie is ready to start the negotiations on his cabinet.

0:15:530:15:57

275, mate. Not a penny less, not a penny more.

0:15:570:16:01

250? No. 275, I'm going to have that.

0:16:010:16:04

Because I've had a good look at it and, erm, it's very pretty.

0:16:040:16:09

Charlie bags his pretty little cabinet

0:16:090:16:11

and love is clearly in the air

0:16:110:16:13

because the Charmer soon spots something else that tickles his fancy.

0:16:130:16:17

It's quite sweet, isn't it? Very nice little stool.

0:16:170:16:21

Needs a little bit of upholstery,

0:16:210:16:23

but don't we all?

0:16:230:16:24

-Yeah. £20.

-£20? That's Victorian!

0:16:240:16:28

-I've got to have that for £20.

-Good man.

0:16:280:16:31

I mean I couldn't possibly not buy that for £20.

0:16:310:16:34

Yes, that was a walk in the park.

0:16:340:16:37

Charlie's second item is a Victorian footstool,

0:16:370:16:39

and he was so taken with it, he didn't even haggle.

0:16:390:16:42

Gosh, doesn't it make shopping easier when you do all your shopping in one place?

0:16:420:16:47

Cunning Catherine, however, is biding her time.

0:16:470:16:50

She knows it's all about quality today and, like a magpie,

0:16:500:16:55

it's not long before she's lured in by another piece of silver.

0:16:550:16:58

Can I have a little look at your jewellery box?

0:16:590:17:02

You can.

0:17:020:17:03

So the tortoiseshell, to me, looks in beautiful condition.

0:17:030:17:06

It is, yes. It's got the inlay as well.

0:17:060:17:08

You've got a nice little bit of silver inlay. Hallmarked here.

0:17:080:17:12

We've got maker's initials. Looks like W and S.

0:17:120:17:16

It's slightly rubbed but the initial,

0:17:160:17:19

-so Birmingham and we've got a B.

-A capital B.

0:17:190:17:22

-And that's 1920...

-1926.

-26.

0:17:220:17:26

This tortoiseshell piece won't be to everyone's taste,

0:17:260:17:30

but it's perfectly safe to buy it and sell it

0:17:300:17:33

as it predates the 1947 legislation.

0:17:330:17:37

-What sort of price can you do on this?

-165. That would be the best.

0:17:370:17:42

-Can we not do 150?

-No.

-Can we do 155, and then we're...

0:17:420:17:46

No, I couldn't do that because I've come down quite a long way.

0:17:460:17:49

You see, I have come down from 230, so I feel as though...

0:17:490:17:52

No, I know you have, I know.

0:17:520:17:54

The vendor's not budging on price and time isn't on Catherine's side.

0:17:540:17:59

She needs to make a decision, and fast.

0:17:590:18:02

Oh, this is so difficult.

0:18:020:18:04

I'll buy it.

0:18:070:18:10

I hope I'm not going to regret this.

0:18:100:18:11

Deal done. After a tense negotiation, Cunning Catherine snaps up the tortoiseshell case for £160.

0:18:110:18:18

Round three is now over and both our antiques savvy soldiers have emerged

0:18:220:18:27

unscathed with the items they hope will net them a prodigious profit.

0:18:270:18:31

Charlie has spent nearly £686,

0:18:310:18:35

leaving him with just over £314 in his kitty.

0:18:350:18:40

While Catherine has spent over £512,

0:18:400:18:43

leaving her a little under £488 available to spend in round four.

0:18:430:18:49

And so we come to the final round of buying.

0:18:530:18:56

Armed with a fistful of euros, our duelling dealers have been sent

0:18:560:19:00

to the Cygne market in Belgium, where their challenge

0:19:000:19:04

is to each find two potential profit-makers amidst over 700 stalls

0:19:040:19:08

bulging with booty.

0:19:080:19:10

Like a true Brit abroad, Charlie is on the hunt for things

0:19:100:19:14

that remind him of home and before long, he spots something.

0:19:140:19:19

Oh-ho! How quintessentially English is that?

0:19:190:19:24

Allumettes? Ah, for the matches. Allumettes. It's 70 euros.

0:19:260:19:30

£63.

0:19:300:19:33

I want to be buying that for £35, £40, don't I?

0:19:340:19:37

-Cinquante, oui? Oui?

-Oui.

0:19:370:19:39

C'est possible a cinquante?

0:19:390:19:42

Monsieur, encore une fois!

0:19:420:19:46

I offered 50, he said 50!

0:19:460:19:48

Bother! Wish I'd offered 40!

0:19:480:19:50

Never mind, Roscoe, you've bagged your first deal of the day and spent just over £45.

0:19:500:19:55

It's going back to England, and so am I, with it.

0:19:590:20:02

Our charming Brit abroad certainly knows what he's after.

0:20:020:20:06

He's just spotted another English item to add to his haul.

0:20:060:20:09

Good English stoneware.

0:20:090:20:12

Royal coat of arms.

0:20:120:20:14

Doulton Lambeth.

0:20:150:20:17

Doulton Lambeth made a huge amount of, erm,

0:20:170:20:22

pottery, earthenware.

0:20:220:20:24

In fact, the Doulton factory started making sewage pipes,

0:20:240:20:29

and of course, they ended up, Doulton today make delicate figures of ladies.

0:20:290:20:33

They've come a long way, haven't they?

0:20:330:20:35

The gentleman has asked me 30 euros for this.

0:20:350:20:40

Would it be too rude if I offered you 10 euros?

0:20:400:20:44

If you said 20, you can have it.

0:20:440:20:46

WHISPERS: He's coming down a bit!

0:20:480:20:50

-(How about 15?)

-Sold.

0:20:530:20:56

-Sold! Ha-ha-ha!

-(Well done, Charlie!)

0:20:560:20:59

You certainly had him over a barrel, there, with your charming chat.

0:20:590:21:03

-Back to England, where it belongs.

-Yes.

0:21:030:21:07

And Charlie takes the barrel for nearly £14.

0:21:070:21:12

And that's the Charmer done.

0:21:120:21:14

But with no purchases to her name yet,

0:21:140:21:16

Catherine needs to make up ground.

0:21:160:21:19

-Vingt cinq.

-Vingt cinq, OK.

0:21:190:21:21

She buys a powder box for almost £23.

0:21:210:21:23

But the wheels of time are rolling on and as the market closes,

0:21:270:21:31

the pressure rises.

0:21:310:21:33

Like a phoenix from the flames,

0:21:330:21:35

Cunning Catherine soars into her final deal

0:21:350:21:38

and takes a gamble on an Arts and Crafts belt buckle.

0:21:380:21:41

-I'm taking the biggest risk of my life.

-OK.

0:21:410:21:44

It's OK.

0:21:440:21:46

The Cunning One gives her a budget a right belting

0:21:460:21:49

and spends over £118 on the belt buckle.

0:21:490:21:54

Probably English-made.

0:21:550:21:56

I think this is going to sell a lot easier in England, I hope.

0:21:560:21:59

It is the biggest gamble of the day for me,

0:21:590:22:02

but it's the end of the day and I had to buy something.

0:22:020:22:06

And on that note, round four comes to an end

0:22:060:22:10

and our antiques adventurers have now purchased all their showdown items.

0:22:100:22:15

Time to assess their spending.

0:22:150:22:17

Our duelling duo started this epic showdown

0:22:170:22:21

with £1,000 of their own cash to buy eight items.

0:22:210:22:25

At the close of play,

0:22:250:22:27

Charlie's final bill comes in at just under £745.

0:22:270:22:31

Catherine has been more cautious. She spent just over £653.

0:22:310:22:35

Before our dealers go their separate ways,

0:22:380:22:41

there's just time for them to assess each other's weapons of war.

0:22:410:22:45

Well, I don't know how you found it,

0:22:450:22:47

but for me, buying the last two items for the showdown today was awful.

0:22:470:22:52

Not easy, is it, being in Belgium buying things for England.

0:22:520:22:55

-But I like that, that buckle.

-Do you? I do.

0:22:550:22:59

-But I paid so much money for it.

-What about this?

0:22:590:23:02

That, I really like that. That's gorgeous.

0:23:020:23:06

And our Showdown auction is in Warwickshire, isn't it?

0:23:060:23:10

There's lots of hunts in Warwickshire.

0:23:100:23:12

That is going to make you a very nice profit.

0:23:120:23:14

Can I swap that for one of mine?

0:23:140:23:16

With a small cash incentive, yes.

0:23:180:23:20

And now our tireless troopers return to base

0:23:220:23:26

where they must refocus all their energies into selling their items

0:23:260:23:30

to achieve the highest possible profits.

0:23:300:23:33

The dealer with the most money will take the title,

0:23:330:23:37

but this is the Showdown and it's not quite that simple.

0:23:370:23:40

Both our dealers have eight items to sell,

0:23:400:23:43

and at least four must be sold at auction without any reserve price.

0:23:430:23:47

So it's a white-knuckle ride

0:23:470:23:50

where our competitors might win big or they might lose massively.

0:23:500:23:53

Both our experts must start by choosing which items to put under the hammer.

0:23:530:23:59

Minimum of four, but I've gone for five. Why?

0:23:590:24:03

I've put my Archibald Knox chamber stick in,

0:24:030:24:05

and I've seen one make £400 before.

0:24:050:24:09

Why have I put my stool into auction?

0:24:090:24:13

Because I think private buyers will be there to buy that. So that's that.

0:24:130:24:17

The next item I've put into auction is my satinwood cabinet.

0:24:170:24:21

I think the colour of it will attract somebody. So I'm hopeful of that.

0:24:210:24:26

I put the spirit barrel in simply because I bought it in a rash moment

0:24:260:24:30

because it seemed cheap and it was English and I bought it abroad.

0:24:300:24:34

So hopefully that'll make a profit.

0:24:340:24:37

And the final thing, number five object,

0:24:370:24:39

was the cigarette box.

0:24:390:24:41

The sale room is in a hunting area and it's got hunting scenes on top

0:24:410:24:45

so I think that is the right reason for putting it into auction.

0:24:450:24:49

And Cunning Catherine,

0:24:490:24:50

which of her items does she think will gain the most under the gavel?

0:24:500:24:54

The first item that I've picked were these two items of Belleek.

0:24:540:24:58

I'm hoping that for £40 I should make a little bit of profit on that.

0:24:580:25:04

This is probably the one I'm most happy with because I really like this.

0:25:040:25:07

It's nice quality, James Dixon & Sons.

0:25:070:25:10

I'm hoping something like this should do well at auction.

0:25:100:25:13

This I picked up, it's quite a nice novelty thing.

0:25:130:25:17

It's an Art Deco compact.

0:25:170:25:18

It would be nice if it made £40 or £50, but I'm not holding my breath.

0:25:180:25:22

Now this one, the Arts and Crafts buckle.

0:25:220:25:26

I really love this, but I've paid far too much money on this.

0:25:260:25:31

I think I've made a big mistake. And the only place for it is at auction.

0:25:310:25:35

There's no way I'm going to get a profit on it.

0:25:350:25:38

If I do, I will be very surprised and very happy.

0:25:380:25:42

Before any auction action, our captains of collectibles

0:25:420:25:45

have items they need to find private buyers for.

0:25:450:25:49

Charlie needs to shift a fishing reel, a golf print and a Vera Huggins Royal Doulton vase.

0:25:490:25:55

Catherine will have to find a home for a pair of mirrors,

0:25:550:25:59

an owl pot stand, a tortoiseshell case and an Art Deco clock set.

0:25:590:26:04

But until they've shaken on it and the money's changed hands,

0:26:040:26:08

no deal is truly sealed.

0:26:080:26:09

Our purveyors of products from the past hit the phones,

0:26:090:26:13

and it's Charlie who's first out on the road.

0:26:130:26:16

He's arranged to take his vase, bought for nearly £201,

0:26:160:26:19

to his friend, singing teacher Cheryl.

0:26:190:26:22

And he's determined that it's not going to go for a song.

0:26:220:26:25

-Are you ready?

-I'm ready.

0:26:250:26:26

-Can we sit it over there?

-Yeah.

0:26:310:26:34

Between those two, just to see how it looks.

0:26:340:26:36

Cos that's what I envisaged.

0:26:360:26:38

It was designed by Vera to sit there.

0:26:410:26:44

-That is amazing.

-You could look for a long time to find a vase of those colours.

0:26:460:26:51

It picks up all these colours within this room.

0:26:510:26:54

It picks up everything.

0:26:540:26:56

It picks up the sill, it picks up a little bit of the floor.

0:26:560:26:59

And I'm hoping to pick up your money!

0:26:590:27:01

Well, of course, I do really love it.

0:27:010:27:04

-We'll just have to see how much you're going to scare me.

-325.

0:27:040:27:08

-How about 250?

-I will come down.

0:27:080:27:12

And I won't move lower, and I mean that, at 275.

0:27:120:27:18

270.

0:27:180:27:19

I did say I wouldn't move any lower.

0:27:190:27:22

But frankly, for a fiver it's not worth arguing with, is it?

0:27:220:27:26

-I think it's fantastic.

-270.

-Yes.

-And a singing lesson?

0:27:260:27:30

-All right then.

-Done.

0:27:330:27:35

SHE SINGS OPERATICALLY

0:27:350:27:37

Ooh, that "vase" a great sale!

0:27:370:27:40

Charlie takes a profit to the tune of over £69.

0:27:400:27:44

SINGING

0:27:440:27:47

DOGS HOWL

0:27:540:27:57

For a first singing lesson, that is amazing. You have promise.

0:28:010:28:04

Vase-selling, ten out of ten. Singing, nought out of ten.

0:28:040:28:09

Well, don't give up your day job yet then, Charlie.

0:28:090:28:12

Hoping to hit the right note

0:28:120:28:15

and mirror Charlie's success is Cunning Catherine.

0:28:150:28:18

She's taking her walnut mirror, one of the pair bought at auction for £35.50,

0:28:180:28:22

to Chris, who runs an antiques shop in Kent.

0:28:220:28:25

Condition wise it's not bad for its age, is it?

0:28:250:28:28

There's a couple on the veneer here and on the top somewhere up here.

0:28:280:28:32

-But essentially I thought it was a lovely frame.

-Yes.

0:28:320:28:35

-Nice walnut frame.

-Yeah, not bad at all.

0:28:350:28:37

Nice little bit of cross banding round here.

0:28:370:28:39

Original glass, which is good.

0:28:390:28:41

Um... You know, really, it's quite a clean little mirror.

0:28:410:28:46

How interested would you be you then, Chris?

0:28:460:28:49

I would be happy to pay around £30.

0:28:490:28:52

Hmm.

0:28:520:28:53

-Perhaps my first offer was a bit mean.

-I like your way of thinking!

0:28:530:28:58

-I'd go up to 40. How's that?

-Can we say 50?

-No. 45.

0:28:580:29:04

-45. 45 sounds good to me.

-That's great.

0:29:040:29:07

Catherine gets a sale

0:29:070:29:08

and she follows up by selling her other mirror for £15,

0:29:080:29:12

giving her a profit on that lot of £24.60.

0:29:120:29:16

But time stands still for no woman, and Catherine surges onwards,

0:29:180:29:23

selling her Art Deco clock for £210,

0:29:230:29:26

which leaves her with £3.50 profit.

0:29:260:29:29

It's now Catherine three, Charlie one, in this super selling slog.

0:29:290:29:34

But the Charmer is gearing up for a counter-attack.

0:29:340:29:37

He's phoned a friend and is heading for London,

0:29:370:29:39

hoping that the fishing reel that he bought for £18 could make him a millionaire.

0:29:390:29:45

In my briefcase, one fishing reel.

0:29:450:29:48

In here, one fisherman.

0:29:480:29:50

-Hello, Charlie. Come on in. I'll let you in.

-Thank you.

0:29:530:29:57

Chris, I never realised that you're a serious fishermen.

0:29:570:30:02

Yes, one of the best you've ever met.

0:30:020:30:04

-I've brought a fishing reel for you.

-I won't like it.

-Why?

0:30:040:30:08

I'm sorry, Charlie, you're a nice guy but I won't want it. Cos I've got hundreds.

0:30:080:30:12

-You'll have a look?

-I'll look, but I won't want it.

0:30:120:30:15

Of course you will. You'll never have one.

0:30:150:30:17

-Why are you looking at me like that?

-I want you to hold it and feel it.

0:30:170:30:21

-And tell me all about it.

-It's very, very heavy.

0:30:210:30:24

CLICKING

0:30:240:30:25

-Oh, listen to that!

-It's a collector's piece!

0:30:250:30:27

-Who wants to collect... Listen to it!

-A lot of people.

0:30:270:30:31

Listen to that.

0:30:310:30:32

-You're a very nice man.

-You could add it to your collection.

-No.

0:30:320:30:36

Oh, dear, could that be Chris' final answer?

0:30:360:30:40

-How much do you want for it?

-18 quid. That's what it cost.

0:30:400:30:43

-Really?

-Yeah.

-Boy, did they see you coming!

0:30:430:30:47

-No.

-Go on, 18.

-No.

-It's worth 18 quid.

-No, it's not.

0:30:470:30:50

-You could make a profit on it.

-Eight quid.

-15 quid.

0:30:500:30:53

-I've gone off the idea. Forget it.

-No, no, come back.

-What?

0:30:530:30:56

12 quid.

0:30:560:30:58

-No. 11.

-Come on, Chris.

0:31:000:31:02

-Slap hands, 11 quid. Yes!

-And you really want it.

-That was so begrudging, that.

0:31:050:31:10

-You are horrible because you really wanted it, didn't you?

-Yeah, I love it.

0:31:100:31:14

I've always wanted one of these. I've wanted one of these since I was a kid.

0:31:140:31:17

Oh, Charlie, you were absolutely kippered there.

0:31:170:31:21

Chris certainly has a "Tarrant" for negotiation.

0:31:210:31:25

That sale hits our Charlie with a £7 loss.

0:31:250:31:28

-Cheerio, Chris.

-Bye. Thanks!

0:31:280:31:31

What have I done?

0:31:330:31:36

I've just lost money to somebody who really wanted to buy it in the first place.

0:31:360:31:40

I'm pathetic at this!

0:31:400:31:43

Bye, Charlie. Thanks.

0:31:440:31:47

Cunning Catherine is driving down to Folkestone in Kent

0:31:470:31:51

with the owl pot stand she splashed out a mighty 40 pence on,

0:31:510:31:54

in the hope that she can sell it to Brian who runs an owl rescue Sanctuary.

0:31:540:31:59

-Are they safe?

-They are extremely safe.

0:32:050:32:07

To-wit to-woo'd have thought it? Our Catherine is afraid of owls.

0:32:090:32:13

My heart is beating so fast.

0:32:130:32:16

That's enormous.

0:32:160:32:18

Do you know what, I am secretly petrified of owls, actually.

0:32:180:32:23

I can't believe how close you're getting to him.

0:32:230:32:25

-Aren't you worried he's just going to...?

-He won't do it.

0:32:250:32:28

I've got complete trust in him.

0:32:280:32:30

Oh! He touched me!

0:32:300:32:32

-The beak is for eating.

-No, it's the beak I worry about.

0:32:340:32:37

The talons are for killing.

0:32:370:32:40

Oh, Catherine, you'd better get dealing, and let's hope your asking price doesn't ruffle any feathers.

0:32:400:32:45

-Right. OK, Brian. Down to business.

-Surprise me.

0:32:450:32:50

-Are you ready?

-Yes.

0:32:500:32:52

-Wow!

-Now, what would you be prepared to pay?

0:32:530:32:56

I know what I would like for it.

0:32:560:32:58

I'd like to give you a £5 note.

0:32:580:33:00

I'd like to get a little bit more than that, if possible.

0:33:000:33:04

-How about 10?

-How about £6?

0:33:040:33:06

-How about £7?

-How about £6.50?

0:33:060:33:09

You are a one, aren't you?!

0:33:090:33:11

-How about £7?

-How about £6.50?

-£6.50.

0:33:110:33:15

-How can I refuse such a lovely, lovely man?

-You are gorgeous.

0:33:150:33:18

How's that?

0:33:180:33:20

Catherine makes over £6 from that sale and she is unleashing

0:33:200:33:23

a selling salvo because she goes on to sell her tortoiseshell

0:33:230:33:27

silver case for £230, which leaves her with a whopping £70 profit.

0:33:270:33:32

Now, our Charlie loves to mix business with pleasure.

0:33:340:33:37

So he's travelling to Bicester to indulge in two of his favourite

0:33:370:33:41

pastimes, golf and making a smashing profit.

0:33:410:33:45

After a couple of rounds to warm-up,

0:33:450:33:47

Charlie gets down to business with his friend, Richard, and sells

0:33:470:33:51

the painting he bought for a pound for £24, pocketing a £23 profit.

0:33:510:33:57

So, as we approach the halfway point of this savage selling struggle,

0:33:570:34:02

let's check on our pros' profits.

0:34:020:34:04

The Charmer has sold three items and bagged himself just over £85.

0:34:050:34:12

Cunning Catherine is slightly ahead.

0:34:120:34:14

She has sold five items and made just over £104 profit.

0:34:140:34:19

The wheeler-dealing must all end there. Our duelling dealers must sell everything else at auction,

0:34:210:34:26

a place where they are in the hands of the auctioneer

0:34:260:34:29

and totally powerless in negotiating prices.

0:34:290:34:32

Before the bidding begins, our competitors snatch a quick look at each other's wares.

0:34:320:34:36

Charlie's Archibald Knox.

0:34:360:34:39

I think, in my opinion, it looks like it has been spray-painted.

0:34:390:34:43

Miss Southon has bought a bit of Art Nouveau here.

0:34:430:34:46

I think Miss Southon will be losing money here.

0:34:460:34:49

Hee-hee-hee! She might lose quite a lot!

0:34:490:34:52

I'm really surprised that he didn't sell this privately because

0:34:520:34:56

I think it would have made more money there than it will today.

0:34:560:34:59

Here, you are looking at Roscoe's profit.

0:34:590:35:03

The webbing had gone at the bottom but I've had that done

0:35:030:35:06

in exchange for talking to the lady's local club.

0:35:060:35:10

I think that's a very fair deal. £20. Could make 50.

0:35:100:35:14

As part of the same agreement, Charlie has also

0:35:140:35:18

had his silver-plated casket restored, a total of about £50

0:35:180:35:21

worth of restoration work in exchange for his talk.

0:35:210:35:24

Now, it's the moment of truth, as bidding begins

0:35:260:35:29

and first up is Charlie's cabinet.

0:35:290:35:31

Edwardian satin wood two-door cabinet. Who will start me on £300?

0:35:310:35:35

-What?

-Start me at £300?

-Optimistic.

0:35:350:35:37

-Start me at £200?

-I can't stop laughing.

0:35:370:35:40

Has it got a bid?

0:35:420:35:44

-Oh, dear. There's no interest.

-£100.

0:35:450:35:48

-30 quid would be good.

-100 I'm bid.

0:35:480:35:50

100, we're off. 100, is there 110? Thank you, sir. 120.

0:35:500:35:56

120, looking for 130. Seems cheap to me. It will sell at 120.

0:35:560:36:02

Miss Southon. My world has fallen apart.

0:36:050:36:09

I'm really sorry but that is quite funny!

0:36:090:36:13

I think that's back to the drawing board, isn't it, Miss Southon?

0:36:130:36:16

Catastrophe for Charlie.

0:36:160:36:17

After fees, he has made a thumping loss of just over £179.

0:36:170:36:24

Cost 275, loss, 175.

0:36:240:36:29

Chin up, Charlie, your stool is up next

0:36:290:36:31

and surely, it must be a banker since it only cost £20.

0:36:310:36:34

47A is an early 19th century walnut-framed stool

0:36:360:36:39

with floral patterned tapestry.

0:36:390:36:40

Start me at £80. £50 to start. Is there 50 anywhere?

0:36:400:36:45

Kick us off at 30, then. 30 I am bid. At 30, and five.

0:36:450:36:49

Profit!

0:36:490:36:50

-Profit.

-Is there 40 anywhere?

-40.

-40, here.

-D

0:36:500:36:54

# Double your money, I'm gonna get rich. #

0:36:540:36:57

Selling at 40.

0:36:570:36:58

-It's a profit.

-Thank goodness for that.

0:36:590:37:03

Charlie makes a profit of over £11.

0:37:030:37:07

But, he's got no time to celebrate

0:37:070:37:09

because his chamber stick is up next and it's a big one.

0:37:090:37:12

He purchased it for just over £171,

0:37:120:37:16

and he spent £120 from his remaining kitty having it restored.

0:37:160:37:20

So, in total, this item has cost him over £291.

0:37:200:37:25

-At £200 then...

-Come on, squeeze it, woman, squeeze it.

0:37:260:37:29

GAVEL COMES DOWN

0:37:290:37:32

-200.

-Oh, dear. This is turning into an absolute nightmare for Charlie.

0:37:320:37:37

He's just lost £131.50 after fees.

0:37:370:37:41

Where does it go from here?

0:37:410:37:44

Well, Charlie, right over to Catherine, is the answer.

0:37:440:37:46

Next under the hammer is the compact she bought for nearly £23

0:37:460:37:50

and bidding has already reached £22.

0:37:500:37:54

-At 22. In the room at 22. 25.

-See?

-28. 30.

-Yes!

0:37:540:38:00

-35, 40. At £40.

-£40 for this rubbish?

0:38:000:38:05

-At £40. Yours.

-Well done.

0:38:050:38:08

Grrr!

0:38:080:38:11

Catherine's made over £8 profit, but she's not one to crow about it.

0:38:110:38:16

-So, Charlie Loss, I mean, Ross.

-Cruel!

0:38:160:38:21

This is the big one for me.

0:38:220:38:24

This is the moment when Southon comes down to Ross's level!

0:38:240:38:29

352 A, and early 20th century Arts and Crafts

0:38:310:38:33

white metal belt buckle.

0:38:330:38:35

-£100, somebody, a £100?

-Come on.

-100. Anyone want to come in at £80?

0:38:350:38:40

-Or 50?

-Try 30.

-Try a 30 pound bid to start.

0:38:400:38:43

-I think 20 would be better.

-30 I'm bid, and five anywhere?

0:38:430:38:46

-At 35 here on the internet.

-Internet!

-40 anywhere? At £35.

0:38:460:38:52

Come on. No.

0:38:520:38:54

Ooh, that's got to hurt, over £91 lost after fees.

0:38:550:38:58

This is turning into a disaster for both our competitors.

0:38:580:39:02

Charlie's next. He loses just over £2 on his casket.

0:39:030:39:06

Frankly, this has just been a national disaster!

0:39:080:39:12

What am I going to do? I can't bear it!

0:39:120:39:15

But Catherine makes a bigger loss when her silver bonbon dish,

0:39:150:39:19

purchased for £70, sells for just 40.

0:39:190:39:22

So, after fees, our lady makes a loss of £39.

0:39:220:39:26

And the losses just keeps on coming.

0:39:290:39:31

After fees, Catherine loses nearly £32 on her Belleek,

0:39:310:39:35

which plunges her even deeper into the red.

0:39:350:39:38

You are joking!

0:39:380:39:40

Can Charlie fare any better on his final item of the day,

0:39:400:39:44

-the barrel bought for nearly £14?

-Here we are, £20.

0:39:440:39:48

-£30, start me at 30.

-I've got 16 bidders on the net.

0:39:480:39:52

-Why is she asking for 30?

-20, I'm bid. Is there anywhere else?

0:39:540:39:58

-At £20 here.

-£20?!

-That a profit!

0:39:580:40:02

-It's a profit!

-It's profit, Charlie!

0:40:020:40:08

-It's a profit!

-I think he is in shock.

0:40:080:40:11

The Charmer's taken a profit of,

0:40:110:40:13

wait for it, £1.52. Come on!

0:40:130:40:17

Our proud profit-pursuers have taken a almighty beating at the auction.

0:40:200:40:24

But, before we find out just how badly they've been walloped, let's recap on their spending.

0:40:240:40:30

Both our experts started the contest with £1,000 of their own money

0:40:300:40:34

to spend on eight items each.

0:40:340:40:36

After all costs, Charlie has spent nearly £865.

0:40:360:40:42

And Cunning Catherine spent slightly more modestly at just over £653.

0:40:420:40:48

All of the money that Catherine and Charlie have made from today

0:40:480:40:52

will be going to a charity of their choice, so without further ado,

0:40:520:40:56

it's time to find out who is today's Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is champion.

0:40:560:41:00

-Charlie! Hello.

-How are you?

-Fine, thank you. And yourself?

0:41:000:41:07

Absolutely dreadful. I feel like I've been through a mincer, not an auction.

0:41:070:41:11

What about your private sales? How did you get on?

0:41:110:41:13

-Vera came up trumps.

-Oh, well she was good.

0:41:130:41:16

I took her to a private lady, it just spoke to her

0:41:160:41:20

and she had to buy it.

0:41:200:41:21

-Fantastic.

-That was my good success story. What about you?

0:41:210:41:24

Well, I had quite a few, actually, but one that was particularly good.

0:41:240:41:29

Do you remember my little owl pot stand which I bought for 40p.

0:41:290:41:33

-I went to the perfect place, an owl sanctuary.

-Good Lord!

0:41:330:41:37

I was scared to death of the owls but it was a fantastic place.

0:41:370:41:42

-Shall we have a look?

-I think we're both dreading this, aren't we?

0:41:420:41:45

-I'm dreading it more than you, Miss Southon. Three!

-Two!

-One!

0:41:450:41:49

-Ta-da! Oh, come on, Charlie, get it open!

-It won't open!

0:41:490:41:53

Open!

0:41:530:41:55

-Fantastic!

-That's why I didn't want to open it.

0:41:570:42:01

In the words of Charlie Loss, I mean, Ross, I am cooking on gas.

0:42:010:42:08

Terrible losses all round but Catherine emerges the victor.

0:42:080:42:12

Both experts have been building up their profit pots

0:42:120:42:14

all week over a series of challenges and it is now time to reveal

0:42:140:42:18

whether Catherine or Charlie will be this week's overall champion.

0:42:180:42:22

I've had huge fun. It's been a great, great competition.

0:42:240:42:29

-It's been a good experience.

-I'm not looking forward to this either.

0:42:290:42:32

-Ready?

-Steady.

-Go!

0:42:320:42:34

Yippee!

0:42:340:42:35

Yes!

0:42:360:42:39

A resounding victory for Cunning Catherine.

0:42:410:42:44

Both our experts have made fantastic profits

0:42:440:42:47

and all the money will be going to their chosen charities.

0:42:470:42:50

I'm delighted to have won this competition

0:42:500:42:53

and so proud to have raised so much money to give to my chosen charity,

0:42:530:42:57

which is Starlight, The Children's Foundation.

0:42:570:43:01

My chosen charity is the Matt Hampson Trust.

0:43:010:43:05

Matt Hampson is a remarkable guy.

0:43:050:43:07

A rugby player who broke his neck some years ago

0:43:070:43:11

practising for the England Under-21 team.

0:43:110:43:13

He is now a quadriplegic. He needs all the help he can get.

0:43:130:43:17

It has been a week of no-holds-barred combat.

0:43:170:43:20

Catherine and Charlie both put their money where their mouths are

0:43:200:43:24

and they've proved they can make a solid profit from antiques

0:43:240:43:28

when their own money is on the line.
