0:00:02 > 0:00:07This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is that pitches TV's best loved antiques experts

0:00:07 > 0:00:11against each other in an all-out battle for profit.

0:00:11 > 0:00:13I'm a double-your-money girl.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16And gives you the insider's view of the trade.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19You've got to be in it to win it.

0:00:19 > 0:00:25Each week, one pair of duelling dealers will face a different daily challenge.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27We've got some work to do. Let's go.

0:00:27 > 0:00:31Putting their own money and hard-earned reputations on the line

0:00:31 > 0:00:36as they see who can make the most money from buying and selling.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39Get in there!

0:00:39 > 0:00:46Today's all-out battle for profit pitches the doyen of the decorative arts, Mark Stacey,

0:00:46 > 0:00:50against that motor-mouth maestro of the market, Mark Franks.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54Coming up, the Maverick spots a hidden gem.

0:00:54 > 0:00:59Is £5 cheap for a piece of Georgian silver? Too right! I'm having it.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Franksy bites off more than he can chew.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04This could be a rod for my own back.

0:01:04 > 0:01:08And will a little accident ruin a sensational sale?

0:01:08 > 0:01:11- I've had an accident. - How unfortunate!

0:01:11 > 0:01:16- It's Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is. - I'd better hop to it, really!

0:01:29 > 0:01:33Take your seats, ladies and gentlemen, in the antiques arena

0:01:33 > 0:01:39and watch agog as two gladiators of the trade slug it out in an epic battle for profit.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43In one corner, it's the Brighton Belter.

0:01:43 > 0:01:49He's cool, he's calculating and when he sees a pretty piece, he doesn't mess about.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51It's Mark "the Maverick" Stacey.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56I shall find something with an enormous profit.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00In the other corner, it's London's likeliest lad.

0:02:00 > 0:02:05He's bold, he's brash and when it comes to making great deals, he bangs 'em out.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08It's Mark "Franksy" Franks.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12Anything I fancy, I'm going to buy. Buy, buy, buy, buy!

0:02:12 > 0:02:17Our warring warriors are fighting it out at Malvern Flea and Collectables Fair in Worcester.

0:02:17 > 0:02:23Their goal is to seek out the bargain buys they can sell on for the biggest possible profit.

0:02:23 > 0:02:30- The easiest way to make money is to buy things with people in mind. - They've each got £750 to spend.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33All the profit goes to their chosen charities.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36I'm looking for that one item to give me the edge.

0:02:36 > 0:02:42Mark Stacey and Mark Franks, it's time to put your money where your mouth is.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46I'm really hoping something is going to jump out at me.

0:02:46 > 0:02:51- Franksy...- Good morning.- How are you?- It's a bit early for me.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54I'm quite keen on watching telly in bed with tea and toast.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58I love this. I'm getting a tingling feeling all over.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Just look at all these stalls with potentially huge profits for me.

0:03:02 > 0:03:07I'm a bit worried because you're at home in this environment, aren't you?

0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Is that a compliment coming from you?- I only ever compliment you!

0:03:11 > 0:03:15- We've got 750 quid to spend. - It's not bad, is it?

0:03:15 > 0:03:21- We've got to find a range of items for that.- Today, I'm looking for just good, solid, serious antiques,

0:03:21 > 0:03:23the bread and butter stuff.

0:03:23 > 0:03:29- Would you recognise it, an antique? - I'll just follow you around! Shall we get on?- See you later.

0:03:29 > 0:03:34There's no love lost between these two Goliaths of the antiques arena.

0:03:34 > 0:03:39Behind the smiles, devious dealers are desperate to destroy each other!

0:03:39 > 0:03:44Their pulses are racing and their brows are furrowed in concentration

0:03:44 > 0:03:47as they wade through thousands of items.

0:03:47 > 0:03:53From bargain basement booty to top end trophies, this battleground is vast.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57You can see there's hundreds of stalls and there's inside.

0:03:57 > 0:04:04I have no plan at all. I'm going to wait and see what speaks to me and says, "Buy me."

0:04:04 > 0:04:09If that doesn't work, I'm just going to go back to Plan B and panic.

0:04:12 > 0:04:17When I said to Mark that I'm looking for serious antiques, I was lying.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20I want to buy fun things, quirky things.

0:04:20 > 0:04:26If you see something you like and you're prepared to spend a few quid on it, that's what I'll buy.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29I want to make some fun and make money in the process.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33Trust Franksy to find his own unique way of doing things.

0:04:33 > 0:04:40An antiques fair isn't the first place he feels at home, so he's got to rely on his street-smart skills

0:04:40 > 0:04:45and it seems they're drawing him towards some not-so-precious metal.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49# Any old iron, any old iron Any, any, any old iron

0:04:49 > 0:04:54# You look neat, talk about a treat You look dapper from your napper to your feet

0:04:54 > 0:04:58# Dressed in style, brand-new tile And your father's old green... #

0:04:58 > 0:05:02Nose cone of an aeroplane. If that was the right price, I'd have a go.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04# Old iron, old iron... #

0:05:04 > 0:05:11This really is my cup of tea. It looks like house clearance stuff. It's a real eclectic mix of stuff.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15Franksy homes in on an old bike in bits.

0:05:15 > 0:05:21Does this deter the London lad or does he see a money-making opportunity?

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Do you know what this is? This is a Mark 2 Chopper.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28This isn't a copy. They want 50 quid for it.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30It's so tempting.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33The Chopper's not the only thing tempting our boy.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Look at that. What do you see? Do you like it?

0:05:37 > 0:05:40I love it. That is so in vogue.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42I think I could sell it like that!

0:05:42 > 0:05:45Franksy's on fire this morning,

0:05:45 > 0:05:50but can he get the cabinet and the Chopper for a rock-bottom price?

0:05:50 > 0:05:54What would you do on the pair, cash pound notes, "bestest" price in the world?

0:05:54 > 0:06:00- 100 quid.- I've got to get that re-sprayed, then get someone to put it back together again.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04- I think all the bits are there. - 80 quid?- Go on then.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Thank you so much.

0:06:06 > 0:06:13Mark Franks has slain two items with his first strike, but has he bitten off more than he can chew?

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Now, I know what you're thinking.

0:06:16 > 0:06:21As my dear old dad used to say, "A rod for your own back, boy."

0:06:21 > 0:06:25I'm going to do my best to turn this into a saleable item.

0:06:25 > 0:06:30The cabinet is quite interesting too. Picture the scene -

0:06:30 > 0:06:33a big, modern flat, central London,

0:06:33 > 0:06:39this in the corner, all shiny and wonderful, with a £300 price tag on it.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42Good, proper antiques today. That's all I'll be buying(!)

0:06:42 > 0:06:49You fibber, Franksy! Our boy's targeting the unusual, but he's not the only one thinking tactically.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52Mark has gone that way, so I'm sneaking around here

0:06:52 > 0:06:56because I don't want to see him again for a few hours.

0:06:56 > 0:07:01And hopefully by then, I'll be happy because I will have found all my buys.

0:07:01 > 0:07:07The Maverick is hoping to mark out his own territory in his battle with the lad from London

0:07:07 > 0:07:13and our Emperor of Collectables is drawn to something of a classical mould.

0:07:13 > 0:07:19I'm not an expert in this type of thing, but that looks like marble that's had a lot of ageing

0:07:19 > 0:07:24and there's lots of moss and stuff over it or lichen, "liken", you know what I mean!

0:07:24 > 0:07:26It looks old.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29How much is your pot there?

0:07:29 > 0:07:31That one is 75.

0:07:31 > 0:07:37- Can I make you an offer?- I'll do 65 on it.- You can't do 60? Please?

0:07:38 > 0:07:41- Go on. 60.- Thank you very much.

0:07:41 > 0:07:47But just when our gladiator of garden ware has agreed a price on one urn, he spots another one.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51I quite like this one. I like the Greek key pattern here.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54There's something very attractive about this.

0:07:54 > 0:08:00- How much is that one? - The best on that would be 40. - £40 - that's my unlucky number!

0:08:02 > 0:08:06You know how you make these older? You throw a load of yogurt on it.

0:08:06 > 0:08:11- But they really are old.- You promise? - I promise you. They really are old.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Hand-cut marble.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15They are lovely.

0:08:15 > 0:08:19I'm just going to... I can't smell any yogurt on there at all!

0:08:19 > 0:08:23The Maverick can't get the price down lower, so settles at £40,

0:08:23 > 0:08:25but then, guess what?

0:08:25 > 0:08:28He spots another urn.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32Now, you must be able to give me a really good deal.

0:08:32 > 0:08:3715, come on, because I'm buying the three together. 15, come on.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39On the cheek, come on.

0:08:39 > 0:08:45£15, there we are. Three of them for 150. You're an angel. Don't do it for Mark if he comes up here.

0:08:45 > 0:08:52The Maverick's charm offensive has seduced this seller and with three marble urns for his first purchase,

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Mr Stacey is confident that he is sowing the seeds of victory.

0:08:56 > 0:09:00I've got a dealer in mind who has got the most fantastic garden

0:09:00 > 0:09:04and another friend whose garden is full of ornamentation.

0:09:04 > 0:09:08Plenty of options and hopefully, plenty of profit.

0:09:08 > 0:09:14Well, time will tell if those urns blossom into nice little "urners". Now, where's that Franksy got to?

0:09:15 > 0:09:18See if you can guess who I am now?

0:09:18 > 0:09:22"Oh, Franksy, I've seen so many nice things here!"

0:09:22 > 0:09:27Franksy might think he has time to lark about, but he needs to get to it.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30His rival is hot on the trail of his next profit-maker

0:09:30 > 0:09:37and just what is it that our lover of finest quality antiquarian pieces is homing in on?

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Oh!

0:09:39 > 0:09:45This is a hideous plastic model of a kestrel, but I think it's meant to be for scaring pigeons.

0:09:45 > 0:09:52I think you hang this up and the pigeons realise, obviously, that it's a kestrel

0:09:52 > 0:09:56and it's meant for scaring away, but it's not very old, I don't think.

0:09:56 > 0:10:01It's quite fun. I don't know why it's appealing to me. It's probably very cheap.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03Well, it's £8.

0:10:03 > 0:10:07That's far too much. I want to give you £5 for it, please.

0:10:07 > 0:10:11- Go on then.- There we are. - Five will do, thank you.

0:10:11 > 0:10:16Oh, Maverick, is your keen antiques radar away with the birds?

0:10:16 > 0:10:21I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, but I couldn't resist it for a fiver.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23My profits are going to soar!

0:10:23 > 0:10:25# I believe I can fly... #

0:10:25 > 0:10:29Yes, or you'll get hit from a great height, Mark!

0:10:29 > 0:10:34Now, our Franksy likes to buy damaged items in need of restoration,

0:10:34 > 0:10:38hoping that when they're done up, he can sell them on for big profits,

0:10:38 > 0:10:41and he's just spied his next potential project.

0:10:41 > 0:10:44You have to use your imagination.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47It's been cut there, there, there and there.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51There would have been four columns which would have matched the legs,

0:10:51 > 0:10:56which would have come up to probably about yay big and that would have been your top,

0:10:56 > 0:11:02so it would have been a dumb-waiter writing desk, a very, very unusual thing.

0:11:02 > 0:11:07A really nice piece of furniture. I would love to see a maker's mark on here.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11If this had a good name on it, Gillow's or something like that,

0:11:11 > 0:11:16if you could find that anywhere, the value would be double or triple what he's asking.

0:11:16 > 0:11:20What we've got to do to make this saleable,

0:11:20 > 0:11:24you've got to lose these bits, you've got to get this flush.

0:11:24 > 0:11:28You'd want the top to be re-leathered. That will be 100 quid.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32Could this be my third purchase that needs loads of work?

0:11:32 > 0:11:38Franksy is keen, but price is everything and the seller wants £280.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41- Can I really push my luck and call it 275?- No.

0:11:41 > 0:11:47Mark has met his match when it comes to negotiating, so he has to bite the bullet.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49There's 80. One, two.

0:11:49 > 0:11:55I'm probably going to spend the next half an hour trying to find a maker's name. Wish me luck.

0:11:55 > 0:12:01Our boy had better not take too long as the Maverick has another item in his sights -

0:12:01 > 0:12:05a small ladle used for pouring out the traditional Scottish hot toddy.

0:12:05 > 0:12:11I don't think the handle's right. Normally, they have really wonderful turned handles on these.

0:12:11 > 0:12:17Sometimes you get an inset coin on the bottom. We've got some lovely initials there.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19I think it's "FMB".

0:12:19 > 0:12:25I've just asked the man how much it is and he says £5.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28And I think that's Georgian silver.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Is £5 cheap for a piece of Georgian silver with the wrong handle on it?

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Too right it is! I'm having it.

0:12:35 > 0:12:40I'll take that for five. Thank you very much indeed. I'll carry on looking if I may.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44Yes, our decorative dynamo knows he has scooped up a bargain

0:12:44 > 0:12:50and his beady eye soon spots a couple of beaded evening bags which he nabs for £15.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56I love this. I'm sure it's Georgian silver. It's got the wrong handle.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59It won't be worth a fortune, but it was a fiver.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02And the two bags are so Brighton!

0:13:02 > 0:13:06There's vintage clothes shops galore in Brighton Lanes.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09There's got to be a profit in there.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12A shame it doesn't go with what I'm wearing!

0:13:12 > 0:13:14You're a fine specimen just as you are!

0:13:14 > 0:13:18Our gallant challengers have each made three purchases

0:13:18 > 0:13:23and there's no let-up in the hunt for anything to give them the advantage on their opponent.

0:13:23 > 0:13:30I'm quite pleased with the purchases I've made so far today. I just hope I haven't put my foot in it.

0:13:30 > 0:13:34- WHEEZY VOICE: - I'm feeling a little... I'm feeling a little "horse". Get it?

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Lights, camera, action!

0:13:37 > 0:13:40I love this, don't you?

0:13:40 > 0:13:42It's so over the top, look.

0:13:42 > 0:13:47I've just found my own Hollywood lights desk lamp.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50I'm not sure how old it is, but it's great fun.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53- So how much is it?- 20 quid.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56Oh! 16.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59- 16, come on.- 17.- Go on, 17. Thanks a lot.

0:13:59 > 0:14:06I've got a lot of glamorous friends in Brighton who just love having their names up in lights.

0:14:06 > 0:14:11Well, with the Maverick closing his fourth deal, it's time to see

0:14:11 > 0:14:15who is the brightest star in today's competition so far.

0:14:16 > 0:14:22Mark and Mark each had up to £750 of their own cash to spend today.

0:14:22 > 0:14:28Mark "the Maverick" Stacey has done four deals and spent £157,

0:14:28 > 0:14:31leaving him with £593 in his kitty.

0:14:31 > 0:14:37Mark "Franksy" Franks is going all out to target unusual treasures.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40He's bought three items, spending £360,

0:14:40 > 0:14:43which leaves him with £390 to play with.

0:14:44 > 0:14:49But this grapple for profit glory is only just beginning.

0:14:49 > 0:14:55- Oh, mothballs!- And our steely strategists want to keep a close eye on each other's progress.

0:14:55 > 0:15:01- Trying to get "a head"? Get a hat. - I know.- How is your buying going? - Fantastically, Mark, honestly.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04I could go and have another cup of tea, I think.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07- I've got all the pieces I need. - Really?

0:15:07 > 0:15:13It's just a matter now, if something speaks to me and gives me a huge profit, but I could go home now.

0:15:13 > 0:15:17- How's yours doing?- I need to crack on. I haven't got where you've got.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21- I'm not keeping you.- Are you being honest? Are you serious?- Absolutely.

0:15:21 > 0:15:26- But I'm not keeping you. If you feel you have to rush... - Say what you mean.

0:15:28 > 0:15:33Oh, mind games from the Maverick! He's actually spent a lot less than his rival,

0:15:33 > 0:15:39but whatever the Brighton Belter hoped to achieve with his mendacious mind games,

0:15:39 > 0:15:42he's just spurred Franksy on to work even harder.

0:15:42 > 0:15:46Quickly, he spots a pair of Indian paintings on silk.

0:15:46 > 0:15:48The frame screams 30 years old!

0:15:48 > 0:15:52And bags them both for £40.

0:15:52 > 0:15:57Look at the workmanship. Look at his eyes. Look how crisp and lovely that is!

0:15:57 > 0:16:04Will these Indian delicacies give Franksy a taste for victory or result in profit heartburn?

0:16:04 > 0:16:09The Maverick is on the lookout for that one last big buy with which to destroy his rival,

0:16:09 > 0:16:13but he still has time to make some new friends.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16Hello. Hello.

0:16:16 > 0:16:21# A man who walks with the animals, talks with the animals... #

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Dogs love their ears scratched.

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Aren't you a cutie?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Oh, bless her!

0:16:29 > 0:16:33Albert! Albert! Are you deaf?

0:16:35 > 0:16:41But Franksy stays focused. Our sharp-shooter corrals a cowboy hat for £15.

0:16:41 > 0:16:43Does my bum look big in this?

0:16:43 > 0:16:45We couldn't possibly say, Mark.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48More importantly, the antiques fair is winding down

0:16:48 > 0:16:52and our heroes still have hundreds left to spend.

0:16:52 > 0:16:58They now need to do all they can to grab those late game-changing deals.

0:16:58 > 0:17:03I've got loads of cash left and no time and virtually no stalls.

0:17:03 > 0:17:10Oh, that's pressure! The Maverick goes straight to what he knows best - decorative pottery and glass.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14This is what I'm left with - my favourite subject on the planet.

0:17:14 > 0:17:20I love the work of Rene Lalique. We've got two pieces here which are post-war.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23That's 60 and that's 95.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Can I make you an offer for those two?

0:17:27 > 0:17:33The two post-war Lalique glass ornaments may look stunning, but a top make won't come cheap.

0:17:33 > 0:17:38- 140 for the two, please? - No, I can't do it.- You can't?- No.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Well, I've tried.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43The Maverick passes on the deal,

0:17:43 > 0:17:48but could his unwillingness to spend open up a chance for Franksy to get ahead?

0:17:48 > 0:17:53He's noticed this set of silver liqueur cups. Is this his moment?

0:17:54 > 0:18:00- What's the absolute best on this? - You've got my glasses.- No. Give me your glasses back!- Just a minute.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03Oh, 245.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Here you are, glasses.

0:18:05 > 0:18:09- They're nice, aren't they? - They are perfect.- Sold.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Franksy has gone for it and spent big on the liqueur cups.

0:18:12 > 0:18:17He's taken a risk and is boldly going where the Maverick fears to tread.

0:18:17 > 0:18:21This is over 100 years old. Let's look at what we've got -

0:18:21 > 0:18:24a beautiful presentation box.

0:18:24 > 0:18:28And when you open it up, inside, you've got a set

0:18:28 > 0:18:33of six matching, more or less absolutely perfect liqueur cups.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36They were made in London, 1903.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39245.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41Would you have paid that?

0:18:42 > 0:18:44I bet Mark Stacey wouldn't.

0:18:44 > 0:18:49You could be right. He may have lost out on the glass ornaments,

0:18:49 > 0:18:53but our wounded warrior isn't going down without a fight.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56Hang on, that's a familiar sight!

0:18:56 > 0:18:58What is it today? All I'm buying is garden urns!

0:18:58 > 0:19:05These are not very old, but they are cast-iron in a sort of almost Regency design, I suppose,

0:19:05 > 0:19:09with this gadrooned edging and the fluted base.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- How much are they, sir? - They're 48.- 48.

0:19:12 > 0:19:17- Could I get them for £30 to save you taking them home? - 34 and we'll shake hands.

0:19:17 > 0:19:1933, come on, done.

0:19:19 > 0:19:22Thank you very much. £33.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24And now I can call it a day.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26FORCED LAUGH

0:19:26 > 0:19:33It's not a mega-money deal, but the Maverick has managed to squeeze in that one last buy.

0:19:33 > 0:19:38With this epic contest finally at an end and the sellers heading home,

0:19:38 > 0:19:42it's time to see which of our gladiators gets the thumbs-up

0:19:42 > 0:19:44and who could be fed to the lions.

0:19:45 > 0:19:50Our boys started the day with £750 of their own money to spend.

0:19:50 > 0:19:55The Maverick has picked up five purchases and spent just £190.

0:19:56 > 0:20:01Franksy has gone for quirky buys and walks away with six of them,

0:20:01 > 0:20:04spending £660 in total.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08But it's all about who will make the most profit

0:20:08 > 0:20:14and with combat over, our fatigued fighters now get to size up each other's spoils of war.

0:20:14 > 0:20:19Mark, I'm afraid my little section looks very underwhelmed.

0:20:19 > 0:20:23- Empty your pockets. What else have you bought?- This is it.

0:20:23 > 0:20:29- I don't know what to say. You've bought some really quirky items. - Yeah, I've got my work cut out.

0:20:29 > 0:20:34- What's this duck thing here? - This is all I've bought. - Is it a seagull?- No, a kestrel.

0:20:34 > 0:20:38- It's a pigeon-scarer, I think.- Yes.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40That ladle thing is very nice.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44- I think this is Georgian silver.- It looks like it.- It's not hallmarked.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47- And it was a fiver.- Wow!

0:20:47 > 0:20:50What do you think of that? Do you mind if you model it?

0:20:50 > 0:20:53How much did you pay for this?

0:20:54 > 0:20:59- Ride 'em high!- You look lovely. - How much did you pay for it? - 15 quid, brand-new.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03I know, I bet you wish you'd seen it.

0:21:03 > 0:21:09Brushing on, I never thought I'd say the word "quality" and Mark Franks in the same sentence.

0:21:09 > 0:21:14- But I can with this, Mark.- Nice, isn't it?- What's come over you?

0:21:14 > 0:21:17- Edwardian? - Yeah, just turn of the century.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19245...

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- Yes, I know.- That's quite a lot. - It's not cheap.

0:21:23 > 0:21:29- It's been fun. I can't wait to see the result.- Come and buy me a beer. I need one.- I will. Come on.

0:21:33 > 0:21:39The ceasefire is only fleeting and now our antiques warriors must once again gear up for battle.

0:21:39 > 0:21:42This is where things get really serious.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45So far, our heroes have chosen their weapons.

0:21:45 > 0:21:50Now they must use them to inflict maximum damage on their opponent.

0:21:50 > 0:21:57They must sell their pieces for as much as they can and whoever makes the most profit takes today's crown.

0:21:57 > 0:22:04Down in Brighton, Mark "the Maverick" Stacey is assessing his assortment.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07The Malvern Antiques Fair, I thoroughly enjoyed.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10I bought the lovely kestrel.

0:22:10 > 0:22:14I'm sure that's going to hover over a rather tasty profit.

0:22:14 > 0:22:18The three garden urns I bought as one deal

0:22:18 > 0:22:21and I've got a potential buyer lined up for them.

0:22:21 > 0:22:26The pair of garden urns, interesting possibilities with those.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30The handbags - Brighton is the home of vintage, I think they're sold.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33The Georgian toddy ladle, I haven't got a buyer yet,

0:22:33 > 0:22:36but I'm not worried about that.

0:22:36 > 0:22:40The Hollywood lamp will light me up a profit, I hope,

0:22:40 > 0:22:43but I can't spend all day in this comfortable chair.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45I've got sales to make.

0:22:45 > 0:22:52The Maverick is raring to go, but one streetwise dealer is determined to stop him in his tracks.

0:22:52 > 0:22:56Up in the Big Smoke, Franksy is plotting over his prizes.

0:22:57 > 0:23:02At the antiques fair, I bought some interesting stuff, not all antiques -

0:23:02 > 0:23:07the 1970s Raleigh Chopper in bits with the metal lockers.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11They will look very nice if they're sand-blasted and then polished.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15The writing table - oh, it needs quite a lot of work.

0:23:15 > 0:23:19What will I do with that? That's the only thing that worries me.

0:23:19 > 0:23:24The tiny silver liqueur cups will sell themselves. They are beautiful.

0:23:24 > 0:23:29Remember the two Indian prints painted on to silk? They were lovely.

0:23:29 > 0:23:34- AMERICAN ACCENT: - And finally I got my big cowboy's hat. Yee-ha!

0:23:34 > 0:23:38Hmm, a confident Franksy is going all out for victory,

0:23:38 > 0:23:44but both our boys know that no deal is truly sealed until that all-important handshake.

0:23:44 > 0:23:50The Maverick is first off the blocks. He's surging through the streets of his home town Brighton,

0:23:50 > 0:23:55hoping to get that crucial first sale and one up on his rival.

0:23:55 > 0:23:59You remember that fun and funky bird of prey I bought?

0:23:59 > 0:24:03I think I've found an equally fun and funky bird of prey to sell it to.

0:24:03 > 0:24:09Mark is hoping that the plastic kestrel will appeal to the eclectic tastes of his friend Serena.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12He paid £5 for it at the antiques fair.

0:24:12 > 0:24:17I've bought some wacky things, but when I bought this, I could only think of you.

0:24:17 > 0:24:22Actually, Mark, this is my latest purchase, which is my kebab sign.

0:24:22 > 0:24:27I love it. You have got a very good eye, a really wacky eye.

0:24:27 > 0:24:31I just knew you'd fall in love with Kes, the flying kestrel.

0:24:31 > 0:24:35I think it's so naff, it's wonderful.

0:24:36 > 0:24:41- I could imagine the pigeons would be really scared. - I'm thinking more of the bathroom.

0:24:41 > 0:24:45The bathroom? I was hoping to get around £25.

0:24:45 > 0:24:50- I think that's pushing it. - Do you think so?- I do, yes!

0:24:50 > 0:24:54- 20.- 20. I sense I have to accept. Thank you, darling.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Pleasure. Mwah!

0:24:57 > 0:25:01- Fantastic.- I can get the rest of the set if you want.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04I think I might have to say "no". Thank you, Mark.

0:25:04 > 0:25:09The Maverick flies away with a £15 profit on the kestrel.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12Now that's a turn-up!

0:25:12 > 0:25:14You didn't think I was going to sell that,

0:25:14 > 0:25:19but at the end of the day, my kestrel soared to a healthy profit.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21Mark Franks, I'm hovering over you!

0:25:22 > 0:25:26But the Maverick's rival is no sitting duck.

0:25:26 > 0:25:31Franksy is armed with his Indian paintings and he's hunting for a profit.

0:25:31 > 0:25:35Wallington, computer shop, Indian prints?

0:25:35 > 0:25:41Confused? Don't be. These guys are teaching me to speak Hindi, they repair all my computers.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44I'm going to try and sell these prints for a profit.

0:25:44 > 0:25:50The Indian prints cost Mark £40, but will they impress his friends Yasir and Mohammed?

0:25:50 > 0:25:56- Hello, Mark.- Kya haal hai?- Thik hai. - I'll translate that. You'd better be telling me the truth.

0:25:56 > 0:26:02- "Kya haal hai" means "how are you doing?" And you say...?- Thik hai. - Which means...?- I'm fine.- Excellent.

0:26:02 > 0:26:07Guys, I've been to an antiques fair and I thought these pictures were beautiful.

0:26:07 > 0:26:10- It's painted on silk.- OK.

0:26:10 > 0:26:16- Look at the detail. Look at the eyes.- Prominent, yeah. - Real definition.- Very pretty.

0:26:16 > 0:26:22- You could have it up there if you want. You could make the whole shop look so much more...- Indian.- Smart.

0:26:22 > 0:26:27- Smart.- So how much do you want for both?- I'll accept £100 for the pair.

0:26:27 > 0:26:32- Come on, Mark.- 50 quid?- 50 quid... - Buy one, get one free.

0:26:32 > 0:26:38- I can accept the minimum of £60. How's that?- Yeah, that's fine. - Deal?- Deal. Done.

0:26:38 > 0:26:40CONVERSATION IN HINDI

0:26:40 > 0:26:43- Thank you very much. - Excellent. Everyone's a winner!

0:26:43 > 0:26:49It's a modest £20 profit, but Franksy has got his first sale in the bag.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53A profit is a profit. They were lovely pictures, nice boys

0:26:53 > 0:26:57and I've learnt another word. Let's carry on selling.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00And Franksy leaps back into action.

0:27:00 > 0:27:06But what is going on further south? Is the Maverick off on a night out?

0:27:06 > 0:27:10No, he's going to try and sell his vintage handbags.

0:27:10 > 0:27:15I'm here in the North Laine in Brighton at a wonderful vintage shop I know.

0:27:15 > 0:27:20Michelle has seen some photographs of these and she wants to see them in the flesh,

0:27:20 > 0:27:23so this one might be in the bag.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27Mark paid £15 for both bags, but can he sell them for a pretty profit?

0:27:29 > 0:27:32- That's the first one.- OK, lovely.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34I thought this might be '70s.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38- I think it might be a bit earlier. It could be '60s.- Right.

0:27:38 > 0:27:44- Very good condition.- I loved all the sparkly bits and people in Brighton like their bling.- They do indeed.

0:27:44 > 0:27:48- Would they fit into the shop? - Certainly, yeah.

0:27:48 > 0:27:54- I think they would.- I was hoping for around £35 for the pair. How do you feel about that?

0:27:54 > 0:27:58- 25 I could stretch to.- 25?- Hmm.

0:27:58 > 0:28:03- Do you think we could go any higher? 30?- I could do 30. - Are you sure?- Yeah.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06- Thanks very much, Michelle. - You're welcome.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10Yes, the Maverick carries away a £15 profit.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14But the Brighton Bruiser can't ease up on his pursuit of sales

0:28:14 > 0:28:19as his rival is up in London and about to bring out the big guns.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22The Burlington Arcade in central London.

0:28:22 > 0:28:28I'll try and sell these lovely little cups. They're beautiful, so I'm hoping to make a profit.

0:28:28 > 0:28:32Franksy spent a whopping £245 on them at the antiques fair,

0:28:32 > 0:28:38so he'll have to pull out all the stops with dealer Daniel if he's to make a good profit.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41So what does Daniel think of them?

0:28:41 > 0:28:44They look fantastic. What a superb box!

0:28:44 > 0:28:49They are in fantastic condition. Made in London in 1903. Liqueur cups, as we know.

0:28:49 > 0:28:56Had these been excessively polished, where the marks are, over time, they start wearing away.

0:28:56 > 0:29:01These aren't. They're pristine. They undoubtedly were a wedding present in 1903.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04And it hasn't really been used since.

0:29:04 > 0:29:10But you could buy these, and people do, to have shots at home when they've got their friends round,

0:29:10 > 0:29:13and those on the table, they are fantastic.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16- Are you interested in buying them?- Undoubtedly.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19What would you be comfortable paying for them?

0:29:19 > 0:29:22If one of my regular dealers came in,

0:29:22 > 0:29:28I think they'd be offered to me for between about £400 and £450 and I would buy them,

0:29:28 > 0:29:31so I would be comfortable with buying them at 450.

0:29:31 > 0:29:35- If you can make a profit on it as well, we've got a deal.- I can.

0:29:35 > 0:29:41Franksy toasts a phenomenal profit of £205 on the liqueur cups.

0:29:41 > 0:29:45- Excellent. We'll shut the case on that then.- Case closed.

0:29:45 > 0:29:50And he follows up with a deal on the cabinet for £75,

0:29:50 > 0:29:53making him a healthy profit of £35.

0:29:53 > 0:29:58- You don't want to do a swap for the dog?- No.- What a beautiful boy!

0:29:58 > 0:30:01Franksy's on fire and he ain't stopping now.

0:30:01 > 0:30:09He's ridden into wild south-west London, ready to take a shot at selling his cowboy hat. Yee-ha!

0:30:09 > 0:30:13If you want to get ahead, Mr Stacey, get a hat and watch this!

0:30:14 > 0:30:20And welcome to the auction of the line-dancing. Hello and welcome, everyone!

0:30:20 > 0:30:23So that's what he's up to!

0:30:23 > 0:30:29Franksy is hoping his £15 cowboy hat will tempt the members of this line-dancing troupe

0:30:29 > 0:30:31to part with a fistful of dollars.

0:30:31 > 0:30:34Who's going to start me at a fiver? Thank you, sir. 5.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37A perky pitch gets them bidding straight away.

0:30:37 > 0:30:40- 70, anyone?- 70. - Oh, you're a good girl.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43- 75?- 75.- 75.- 80.- 80.

0:30:43 > 0:30:48- 85 anywhere?- 85.- 85. 85.

0:30:48 > 0:30:52OK, sold to that lady over there. Lovely. Wonderful. Thank you very much.

0:30:52 > 0:30:57Franksy has made a barnstorming £70 profit on the cowboy hat.

0:30:57 > 0:31:00There's your hat. I've got to go. See you soon.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03But the dancers aren't done with him yet.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07- We're going to teach you to line-dance, yes?- Yeah!

0:31:07 > 0:31:11Right...and then back, two, three.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15# If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe, I'd have been married a long time ago... #

0:31:15 > 0:31:19Oh, look at him go! The lad's a natural.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25CHEERING

0:31:27 > 0:31:31The things our Franksy will do for a sale!

0:31:33 > 0:31:38And his rival has found his rhythm too. He sells the cast-iron urns for £58,

0:31:38 > 0:31:41making a profit of £25.

0:31:41 > 0:31:44# If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eyed Joe... #

0:31:44 > 0:31:48Franksy, you've still got more items to sell, cowboy!

0:31:52 > 0:31:58Now, our Brighton boy is dancing to a tune of his own and has plans for his other set of urns.

0:31:58 > 0:32:05He takes them to his old friend Paul, hoping to sell them for more than the £115 he paid for them.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09- I think they're French.- They look French.- They do look French.

0:32:09 > 0:32:16Before we have a look at them in detail, Paul, I've had a bit of an accident this morning coming over.

0:32:16 > 0:32:21- How unfortunate for you! - Oh, disaster! Has Mark blown his chances?

0:32:21 > 0:32:25- Unfortunately, it does reduce its value somewhat.- Oh...

0:32:25 > 0:32:30I was hoping for around £200 for the three of them.

0:32:30 > 0:32:35We can hope for many, many things. We can't always have what we want, though.

0:32:35 > 0:32:39They're quite decorative. I like them. I see them in France a lot.

0:32:39 > 0:32:45I'd be looking to pay 50 euros each for the smaller ones and 70 euros for the larger one.

0:32:45 > 0:32:48So in sterling, that's about 45, isn't it?

0:32:48 > 0:32:53We would normally do one euro to one pound simply because of the travelling costs.

0:32:53 > 0:32:57- Oh, great. That's £50.- Yeah. - £100, £170.- Yeah.

0:32:57 > 0:33:03- I think I'd be happy with 170. - I knew I should have offered you 120. - You must shake.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07- It's OK, Mark.- I've made a small profit. I'm very pleased.

0:33:07 > 0:33:10It's probably not a small profit. It's probably enormous!

0:33:10 > 0:33:17Well, it's not bad at all. Despite chipping one of them, the Maverick makes £55 profit on the urns.

0:33:18 > 0:33:22With both dealers cooking up money-making deals today,

0:33:22 > 0:33:26it's time to see whose profit pot is the first to boil.

0:33:28 > 0:33:32Mark "the Maverick" Stacey has done four deals so far

0:33:32 > 0:33:35and he's made a profit of £110.

0:33:35 > 0:33:39Mark "Franksy" Franks has also done four deals,

0:33:39 > 0:33:43but is storming away with a profit of £330.

0:33:44 > 0:33:48It's Franksy's game right now, but there is still a long way to go.

0:33:48 > 0:33:54Our London lad is determined to press his advantage and has come to West Wickham in Kent

0:33:54 > 0:33:59to meet bike restorer Martin, armed with the pieces of his Chopper.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03What have I got here? What do you reckon?

0:34:03 > 0:34:06- A bit of a mess, actually.- Thanks(!)

0:34:07 > 0:34:08Hmm...

0:34:08 > 0:34:13- Was that a good "hmm" or a bad "hmm"?- It's a bad "hmm", I think.

0:34:13 > 0:34:17Let's have a look at these. They've seen better days, haven't they?

0:34:17 > 0:34:21It boils down to this. It's really simple. My budget is 90 quid.

0:34:21 > 0:34:25So whatever you can do for 90 quid, that's all I've got.

0:34:25 > 0:34:29I'll paint it, clean the chrome up, put it all back together

0:34:29 > 0:34:35- and any bits and pieces I can fit on it, I will put it on to the bike.- Top man!- It'll be up and looking good.

0:34:35 > 0:34:39The Chopper has already cost Mark £40 to buy,

0:34:39 > 0:34:46so it's a risky strategy to spend the last £90 of his budget getting it restored.

0:34:46 > 0:34:50Time for Martin to transform these broken bits into a working bike.

0:35:00 > 0:35:06And a few days later, Franksy gets the call to say that the restored Chopper is ready to rock.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10# Bicycle, bicycle I want to ride my bicycle... #

0:35:10 > 0:35:14- This ain't my bike.- This is your bike.- That is unbelievable.

0:35:14 > 0:35:18- Wow!- The chrome's come up really well, nice and shiny.

0:35:18 > 0:35:22That is amazing. Oh, I'm more or less speechless!

0:35:22 > 0:35:27It's rare for Franksy to be lost for words, but the bike is back to its best.

0:35:27 > 0:35:30Look at that. Come on!

0:35:31 > 0:35:35Now all our cheeky chappy needs to do is sell it.

0:35:35 > 0:35:37# I want to ride it where I like... #

0:35:39 > 0:35:42The Maverick is also on the move.

0:35:42 > 0:35:46He's headed to the Antiques Arcade in Hungerford, Berkshire,

0:35:46 > 0:35:48but life is never straightforward.

0:35:48 > 0:35:53Great news - I've found a buyer for my Georgian toddy ladle.

0:35:53 > 0:35:58I think I've found a buyer. The problem is, I haven't packed it very well

0:35:58 > 0:36:01and this has happened in the car on the way over here today.

0:36:01 > 0:36:05It snapped off, so the bit of wood is stuck in there.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08Hopefully, that can be sorted and I can make a profit on it,

0:36:08 > 0:36:11but I won't know until the dealer sees it.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14Mark paid £5 for the ladle.

0:36:14 > 0:36:20He wants to sell it to dealer Coleman, but will his accident cost him in potential profit?

0:36:20 > 0:36:26- At the right price, I'd still take it.- What would be the right price for you?

0:36:27 > 0:36:29I'd still give you a tenner for it.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32It's got to be worth 15, hasn't it?

0:36:32 > 0:36:36- 15 quid?- But I've got to sell it as repaired. That's the problem.

0:36:36 > 0:36:40It's not hallmarked, but I'm convinced it is silver.

0:36:40 > 0:36:44And I would date it to the end of the 18th century.

0:36:44 > 0:36:46- That's fine. £15. - Lovely. I'm happy with that.

0:36:46 > 0:36:51Mr Stacey scoops a £10 profit on the ladle. Perhaps it's his lucky day.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56Franksy is also facing some issues of his own.

0:36:56 > 0:37:00He hasn't managed to find a buyer for his restored Chopper

0:37:00 > 0:37:04and now he's come back full circle to the bike shop in Kent.

0:37:05 > 0:37:09The last time that I was here at Martin's bike shop,

0:37:09 > 0:37:13I had a little test ride of the Chopper and I left it with him.

0:37:13 > 0:37:17He's got a mate that apparently may or may not be interested.

0:37:17 > 0:37:22I've come back to see how we're getting on. Let's find out.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26With restoration costs, Mark has now spent £130 on the bike

0:37:26 > 0:37:29and he's getting desperate to find a buyer.

0:37:29 > 0:37:33You said your pal might be interested. Any joy?

0:37:33 > 0:37:39He's let me down a bit, but I'd like to buy it myself. It'd be lovely to have this in my collection.

0:37:39 > 0:37:45The only problem is, because you've done such a good job on it, you've increased its value.

0:37:45 > 0:37:51- I'm here to shake your hand and take your money.- 160?- Are you happy with that?- Definitely.

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Go on. I'll take your money.

0:37:53 > 0:37:57With time ticking away, Franksy takes the deal that's on offer

0:37:57 > 0:38:00and Martin gets a new addition to his collection of Choppers.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03I'm looking forward to putting it in my collection.

0:38:03 > 0:38:08After an almighty run-around, Franksy has made a £30 profit on the bike.

0:38:08 > 0:38:12It was always going to be a gamble and perhaps he could have made more.

0:38:12 > 0:38:16OK, it's not the biggest profit I've ever made in my life.

0:38:16 > 0:38:19A profit is a profit,

0:38:19 > 0:38:23but I bought a bike frame and a box of spares

0:38:23 > 0:38:28and we've now transformed that, restored that and turned it back into a bike

0:38:28 > 0:38:32where it will be loved and used and might last another 50 years.

0:38:32 > 0:38:38Franksy is putting a brave face on it, but it's profit that matters in this contest.

0:38:38 > 0:38:42# Club Tropicana, drinks are free... #

0:38:42 > 0:38:47The Maverick has only got one item left to sell. It's the Hollywood lamp which cost him £17.

0:38:47 > 0:38:53The weather may be grey and miserable down on the south coast, but Mark is targeting a buyer

0:38:53 > 0:39:00who is holidaying in sunny Thailand, his friend Miss Jason who he has arranged to speak to on webcam.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02Hello, Miss Jason. How are you?

0:39:02 > 0:39:08- Hello, dear. How are you, love? All right?- Not as warm and as glamorous as you're looking there.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11It's cold, miserable and wet here.

0:39:11 > 0:39:16- I'm sorry about that. Well, jump on a plane and come over.- I'd love to.

0:39:16 > 0:39:22- All I've got to say to you, Jason, is lights, camera, action! - Oh!- Now, can you see it?

0:39:22 > 0:39:24It's a desk lamp.

0:39:24 > 0:39:29Can you swivel it for me, dear, so I can see it?

0:39:29 > 0:39:32I do like it, but you know, I'm on holiday.

0:39:32 > 0:39:37I've spent a lot of money getting here. I haven't got a lot of cash spare.

0:39:37 > 0:39:41It's not a lot of money. It's very cheap, Jason.

0:39:41 > 0:39:46- £50?- Now, I've had to buy a laptop just so I can talk to you.

0:39:46 > 0:39:50- 25.- £25?

0:39:50 > 0:39:54I tell you what we'll do. I'll go down to 40.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57- What does it say on the side? - "Hollywood Studio."

0:39:57 > 0:40:00Well, that makes all the difference!

0:40:00 > 0:40:04- Now I know it says that, I'll give you more than £40.- Will you?

0:40:04 > 0:40:06I'll give you 41.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10Jason, you've got a deal.

0:40:10 > 0:40:11£41.

0:40:11 > 0:40:17- Will you have it shipped out to me, dear?- No, I'll wait till you get back. I know where you live.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20Oh, yes, I'd forgotten that.

0:40:20 > 0:40:26It's an illuminating sale and a £24 profit for the Maverick, thanks to Miss Jason.

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Cheers, dear.

0:40:29 > 0:40:33Hmm! Time's nearly up on today's battle for profit

0:40:33 > 0:40:39and Mark Franks just has his desk left to sell which cost him a pricey £280 at the antiques fair.

0:40:39 > 0:40:46He has come to Tooting to meet his friend, auctioneer Christine, to see if she can help him out.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49Christine, I've really tried hard.

0:40:49 > 0:40:56I bought this and I was going to restore it, but I've run out of money, so I'm relying on you again.

0:40:56 > 0:41:01Right, the leather is in very poor condition, to be honest.

0:41:01 > 0:41:06- It's bubbled there, it's worn.- It's a bit cream-crackered.- I'd say, yes.

0:41:06 > 0:41:12- Mark, you may take a nose-dive on this one, I'm afraid. - Please sell it with no reserve.

0:41:12 > 0:41:14I love ya!

0:41:14 > 0:41:16LAUGHTER

0:41:16 > 0:41:22So can Christine save Mark from a loss and potential defeat in today's competition?

0:41:22 > 0:41:24All will be revealed.

0:41:24 > 0:41:30Mark and Mark each started this contest with £750 of their own money to spend.

0:41:30 > 0:41:35Mark Stacey finished with five purchases and spent £190.

0:41:35 > 0:41:40Mark Franks made six buys and with the cost of restoring the bike,

0:41:40 > 0:41:42has spent all his £750 budget.

0:41:42 > 0:41:46But all that matters now is who has made the most profit.

0:41:46 > 0:41:51All the money that the two Marks have made will go to the charities of their choice,

0:41:51 > 0:41:57so now let's find out who is today's Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is champion.

0:41:57 > 0:42:01- Hello, hello, hello. How are you? - How was it, Mark?

0:42:01 > 0:42:05- I'm good. How was the antiques fair for you?- I quite enjoyed it.

0:42:05 > 0:42:08You remember the Raleigh Chopper bike? I had it restored.

0:42:08 > 0:42:13- Not a great profit, but... - You made a profit on it?- Yeah.

0:42:13 > 0:42:19- You know my kestrel, you hated it? - Yes.- That hovered high in the profit scale.- You're joking!

0:42:19 > 0:42:22- And I lit up a profit with my Hollywood lamp.- Wow!

0:42:22 > 0:42:26The other thing worth mentioning is the liqueur cups. They did well.

0:42:26 > 0:42:31- You made a profit on that huge price you paid? - Yeah, quality always sells.

0:42:31 > 0:42:35- But you so rarely buy it. Shall we find out?- Come on then.- Ready?- Go.

0:42:35 > 0:42:38- Oh, Mark!- I've won at last!

0:42:38 > 0:42:42You've thrashed me, Mark. I want a recount.

0:42:42 > 0:42:46- I beat you slightly, but it's a close-run thing.- Well done, Mark.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49- I'm really pleased for you. - Yes, you look really chuffed.

0:42:49 > 0:42:54So Mark Franks is today's winner and why?

0:42:54 > 0:43:00Well, although he did make a loss of £152.64 on the sale of the desk when it went under the hammer,

0:43:00 > 0:43:05he did well enough on his other sales to still come out on top.

0:43:05 > 0:43:09The Raleigh Chopper was the highlight of the antiques fair.

0:43:09 > 0:43:13I got it restored and it'll live its life as a restored bike for ever.

0:43:13 > 0:43:19Mark got very good items and he pipped me to the post, so well done on him.

0:43:19 > 0:43:22Tomorrow, the Maverick has a chance to redeem himself.

0:43:22 > 0:43:29- It will be a right royal battle today.- As our brave boys fight it out at an auction in Dorset.
