0:00:46 > 0:00:50Coming up, Paul has comedic competition...

0:00:50 > 0:00:53It's damage, but its character. Right, there we are.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55- I do the jokes, all right?- Sorry!

0:00:55 > 0:00:57THEY LAUGH

0:00:57 > 0:00:59David tries to make 'em laugh...

0:00:59 > 0:01:01What did the 0 say to the 8?

0:01:03 > 0:01:05You say, "I don't know."

0:01:05 > 0:01:06- I don't know.- Nice belt.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11And one man's musical ability fails to impress.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13HE PLAYS OUT OF TUNE

0:01:13 > 0:01:15I'm expecting to see the snake come up here!

0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Would you like an encore?- No.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Prepare for the ultimate in hand-to-hand antiques combat

0:01:37 > 0:01:41as our two experts in martial decorative arts

0:01:41 > 0:01:44step into the ring and get down to business.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46From the mysterious land of Durham,

0:01:46 > 0:01:49the lone fighter with a black belt in bargain hunting,

0:01:49 > 0:01:52enter the dragon - It's "Devilish" David Harper.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54He's versus the inscrutable

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Paul "Mr Morecambe" Hayes,

0:01:56 > 0:01:59the grand master who will kung fu hustle up a profit from nowhere

0:01:59 > 0:02:01and send his opponents reeling.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04They've travelled to the mystic Northeast to go head-to-head

0:02:04 > 0:02:08and risk their own money and put their skills to the test.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Today, they've come to the Bilton Giant Indoor Car Boot Fayre

0:02:11 > 0:02:14in North Shields. Their goal is to defeat one another

0:02:14 > 0:02:16with a low sweep of the best bargains

0:02:16 > 0:02:19and a high kick of the ultimate profits.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23They've each got £250 of their own money to spend,

0:02:23 > 0:02:26and all the profit goes to their chosen charities.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29David Harper and Paul Hayes,

0:02:29 > 0:02:32it's time to Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is!

0:02:32 > 0:02:36- Ah, why-aye, David!- Ah, why-aye, Paul. How are you, mate?

0:02:36 > 0:02:37That's my best Northeast accent.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40That was mine as well, and both a bit on the rubbish side, I'd say.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42I'll tell you what's really unusual about today.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44- What's that?- It's a car boot sale.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46- Yeah?- But it's inside. How civilised is that?

0:02:46 > 0:02:48I think that's the best form of car-boot sale, don't you?

0:02:48 > 0:02:51So, do you have some kind of a broad plan of attack, Paul?

0:02:51 > 0:02:52Yeah, I do, actually.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55I'm trying to buy a wide variety of items, but to be honest,

0:02:55 > 0:02:58I don't want to pay anything more than £20, £30, for anything today.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00- No more than 20 or 30 quid? - No more than 20 or 30 quid.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04Good luck, because I think car boots are getting more expensive by the day!

0:03:04 > 0:03:07But I think for me, my broad plan of attack is, as ever,

0:03:07 > 0:03:11pull the antiques out, Paul, I always get a wonderful satisfaction

0:03:11 > 0:03:13when I pull an antique out of a car boot,

0:03:13 > 0:03:15so if I can do that, marvellous.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- OK. Well, good luck to you, mate. - You too.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Which way's Byker Grove?- Left.- OK.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Let's get ready to rumble!

0:03:22 > 0:03:26MUSIC: "Let's Get Ready To Rumble" by PJ and Duncan

0:03:26 > 0:03:28The antiques world's answer to PJ and Duncan

0:03:28 > 0:03:32might be all chummy to begin with, but soon it'll be time

0:03:32 > 0:03:34for our world-class warriors to take their positions

0:03:34 > 0:03:36and get ready to rumble!

0:03:36 > 0:03:40This is a contest where control and deadly precision are everything

0:03:40 > 0:03:42but what secret techniques

0:03:42 > 0:03:46do these two have to floor their opponents and win the contest?

0:03:46 > 0:03:50Do you know what? I love car-boot sales cos the variety is endless.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52You can get things for 10p, you can get things for £20.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55There's something, really, for everybody,

0:03:55 > 0:03:58but my weapon today is a bag full of pound coins

0:03:58 > 0:04:02for the simple reason, everything, hopefully, is going to be £8, £6,

0:04:02 > 0:04:04I can give the correct change.

0:04:04 > 0:04:06That way, I don't have to produce a pound note

0:04:06 > 0:04:09and don't feel obliged to give more than it's worth.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13So Paul's taking a chance on his change getting his choices

0:04:13 > 0:04:16as cheap as chips, but what's David plotting?

0:04:16 > 0:04:19Now, what I didn't reveal to Paul earlier on is that

0:04:19 > 0:04:21I do actually have a secret weapon.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23I didn't want to reveal it to Paul

0:04:23 > 0:04:26because it's something to do with Paul.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28What I did when I got home the other day,

0:04:28 > 0:04:30I searched online for very poor

0:04:30 > 0:04:33or very good jokes, depending on how you view them,

0:04:33 > 0:04:35I thought, "I'm going to use them."

0:04:35 > 0:04:38It works for Paul. He tells beauties all the time,

0:04:38 > 0:04:40and I think it gets him discounts,

0:04:40 > 0:04:42so I'm going to try and use the Paul Hayes School Of Jokes

0:04:42 > 0:04:45to attempt to get me some discount.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47I think it'll work really well.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49With their special moves revealed,

0:04:49 > 0:04:53our high-kicking masters fly through the air in pursuit of some prime purchases.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56And it's Paul who lands first,

0:04:56 > 0:04:59as he buys a pair of decorative vases for £40.

0:05:01 > 0:05:02I've landed on these.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05They're one of the best names in the art deco world, Malings, great,

0:05:05 > 0:05:07all sort of 1930s into 1950s.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Hopefully, I can find a collector of Maling ware.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12They made all sorts of geometric shapes,

0:05:12 > 0:05:13all sorts of different designs.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16The important thing with these is that they're in good condition,

0:05:16 > 0:05:19complete, and they are marked on the bottom.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21So a strong start from Paul there,

0:05:21 > 0:05:23but David isn't left reeling for too long

0:05:23 > 0:05:26and retaliates when something grabs his attention.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30There's, um, a good example of a Thermos flask of some sort,

0:05:30 > 0:05:31dating, what do you reckon, 1950s?

0:05:31 > 0:05:36- 1950s, yeah.- Yeah. And its original leather carrying case.

0:05:36 > 0:05:37That's positively straight out

0:05:37 > 0:05:40of the hunting-shooting-fishing brigade, isn't it?

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- Absolutely.- Bang on.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44It even has someone's name in there - A Barker.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Have you seen that?- It's as good as the day it was made, isn't it?

0:05:47 > 0:05:49The seal's still on it and everything, yes.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52- And made to last forever, not made to break.- No.

0:05:52 > 0:05:53So you've got a big cork.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Look at that, I mean, it's just so functional.

0:05:56 > 0:05:57That's really wacky, isn't it?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Now then, for me, how much is it?

0:05:59 > 0:06:01- 25.- 25.

0:06:01 > 0:06:04I think I just have to have it. Thank you very much indeed.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06- You're welcome. - Thank you. Marvellous.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09David equalises with his hunting Thermos flask

0:06:09 > 0:06:13but Paul has located a pair of maps that have sparked his interest.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16Let's have a look. So this one's Hereford and this one's Gloucester.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18And they're £8 each, are they?

0:06:18 > 0:06:20I quite like them, actually. I like maps.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23it says on the back, "Hereford from a map of 1840 by Thomas Moule."

0:06:23 > 0:06:25- So how much are they?- £8 each.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Yes, I can see that.- Right!

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Hey, there's no pulling the wool over your eyes, is there?

0:06:30 > 0:06:33£8 each. So that means it's £16 for the pair.

0:06:33 > 0:06:37Could you do anything for them for me? And a smile.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40- 14?- £14. £7 each.

0:06:40 > 0:06:41Go on, I'll have them for £14

0:06:41 > 0:06:44- and luckily, I have the correct change.- Smashing.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46How's that? Nice to see you, mate. I like them, yeah.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49Paul's purchase puts him back on the map

0:06:49 > 0:06:52but David doesn't need directions to find his next target,

0:06:52 > 0:06:54a pair of green hanging lamps.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57However, the stallholder isn't there today

0:06:57 > 0:07:01and has left his wares in the hands of his friend, Keith.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03OK, any idea how much he wants for them?

0:07:03 > 0:07:06It's £45 for the pair, I believe.

0:07:06 > 0:07:0745 for the pair.

0:07:07 > 0:07:09Circa 1930, would you agree?

0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Something like that.- Yeah. - Round about there.- Nice colour.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Could we have a look at one? - Certainly.- Would you mind?

0:07:15 > 0:07:17That is absolutely lovely. Look at that colour.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19Can you imagine that thing lit?

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Gorgeous shaped glass.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24You could just imagine that in a three-bedroom semi

0:07:24 > 0:07:27anywhere in the UK, brand-new in 1930.

0:07:27 > 0:07:31That would have been absolutely the height of fashion, wouldn't it?

0:07:31 > 0:07:35The most trendiest light fitting you could buy in its day.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37Even though it's got a Victorian sort of feel to it,

0:07:37 > 0:07:40it's definitely an early 20th-century one.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43- Now, Keith, are you authorised to do full negotiations?- Yes.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46What kind of money are you thinking, Keith?

0:07:46 > 0:07:48This is bulk purchasing here. Eh?

0:07:50 > 0:07:52I've been instructed to go to 40.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Oh, for goodness sake! I'll tell you what I'll do with you.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Time for David to deploy his secret weapon.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02- Now, Paul Hayes is the master of joke telling, right?- Right.

0:08:02 > 0:08:06Now, if I can give you a Paul Hayes joke and you laugh,

0:08:06 > 0:08:08can I have them for 35?

0:08:08 > 0:08:10If you don't laugh, I'll give you 40.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16- Go on, then.- Are you ready? - I'm ready.- Get ready, Keith.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19- I'm ready.- Prepare to laugh. - I'm prepared not to.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22I asked my yoga instructor if he could teach me to do the splits.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24He said to me, "How flexible are you?"

0:08:24 > 0:08:26I said, "I can't make Tuesday."

0:08:26 > 0:08:28WOMAN LAUGHS

0:08:28 > 0:08:31She's laughing, Keith! She's laughing! Keith, she's laughing!

0:08:31 > 0:08:32"I can't make Tuesday!"

0:08:32 > 0:08:34WIND HOWLS, BELL TOLLS

0:08:35 > 0:08:37Oh, go on, then.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39- Is that a laugh?- 35.- Oh, good man!

0:08:39 > 0:08:43Hey, it works! The Paul Hayes School Of Jokes, it worked!

0:08:43 > 0:08:46What a result! David jokes the price down

0:08:46 > 0:08:48and draws even with Paul's two purchases.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52But "Mr Morecambe" has already tuned in to his next target.

0:08:52 > 0:08:56Look at that. It's a recorder. Can I have a little play?

0:08:56 > 0:08:57- Yeah.- I can play...

0:08:59 > 0:09:02HE PLAYS RANDOM NOTES

0:09:03 > 0:09:06That's jazz for you, isn't it? That's called improvisation.

0:09:06 > 0:09:08That's one word for it, Paul.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10How much is your recorder, mate?

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Fiver.- A fiver? I might have that for a fiver.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15Where else do you get a really good working instrument for five quid?

0:09:15 > 0:09:17I'll have that, mate. Thank you very much.

0:09:17 > 0:09:19So Paul gets a three-two lead

0:09:19 > 0:09:22in this game of antiques snakes and ladders.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Do you know what? To get some bargains today,

0:09:26 > 0:09:27I've got to use my charming skills.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30I'm going to practise on this snake. Any minute now.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Hmm. Making a bit of an ASP of himself.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Now, before we find out how our two masters of arts and crafts

0:09:39 > 0:09:43are getting on at the halfway point of this epic buying battle,

0:09:43 > 0:09:46David and Paul step out of the ring to compare notes.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Do you normally buy your shoes from car boots?

0:09:49 > 0:09:51- Ah, do you know what? And just loafing around.- Oh!

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- I can't get enough of them! I love them.- I can.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- But anyway, I've got my secret weapon.- Oh, in your pocket there?

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Yeah, have you got one?

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Well, it's all down to you. I call it the ultimate secret weapon,

0:10:02 > 0:10:05and it is actually, it's inspired by you.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08- Right, so it's either going to be a song...- No.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10..or a really good joke.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13You've heard them laughing, haven't you?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Do you know the secret of a good joke?- No...- Timing!

0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Oh!- Did you see what I did there?

0:10:18 > 0:10:20What's the secret of a good joke? Timing!

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Yes, we've reached the midway point of our antiques tournament

0:10:23 > 0:10:24so it's time to find out

0:10:24 > 0:10:27who's smashing a piece of wood with their bare hands

0:10:27 > 0:10:30and who's hitting their head against a brick wall.

0:10:30 > 0:10:35David and Paul each started the day with £250 of their own money.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39"Devilish" David Harper has done two deals, spending £60,

0:10:39 > 0:10:42leaving him with £190 in the kitty.

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Paul "Mr Morecambe" Hayes has bought three items

0:10:46 > 0:10:48at a total cost of £59,

0:10:48 > 0:10:51meaning he has £191 still to spend.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56With round two about to kick off,

0:10:56 > 0:10:58David is lagging behind and is beginning to buckle

0:10:58 > 0:11:01under the pressure of this competitive collision.

0:11:01 > 0:11:04I've really got to pull my finger out here, I think,

0:11:04 > 0:11:05because just meeting Paul there,

0:11:05 > 0:11:08he seems very comfortable and confident,

0:11:08 > 0:11:09which is not a good thing for me,

0:11:09 > 0:11:13so I've really got to get my act together here.

0:11:13 > 0:11:18But Mr Sunshine himself, Paul, is also suffering some self-doubt.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21It really is hard sometimes to keep upbeat

0:11:21 > 0:11:23and to keep all these bad jokes going

0:11:23 > 0:11:25and sometimes you feel like the world is getting you down,

0:11:25 > 0:11:29but it's great to have a soul mate who knows exactly how I'm feeling.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31Look at him. He's told one joke too many,

0:11:31 > 0:11:34he can't tell any jokes any more, and he'll live on.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36You're all right, mate, keep your chin up, son. You'll be all right.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38There's no time for clowning around

0:11:38 > 0:11:41when there's buying business to get on with

0:11:41 > 0:11:44and Paul soon spots a watercolour that catches his attention.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47- I can see it's got a little bit of foxing on here.- Yes.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51"John Hayton, 1873", but you said it might be somewhere in particular.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54Yes, that's right. I can't quite remember the name.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57- I think it says it on the back there, yes.- "Saltwood..."

0:11:57 > 0:11:59- Saltwood Castle.- Saltwood Castle.

0:11:59 > 0:12:05- He is a recognised artist, he has got other pictures.- Oh, right.

0:12:05 > 0:12:06So how much is he?

0:12:06 > 0:12:11Well, I had 35 on it, but I could do it for 25 for you.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13Couldn't make it a round £20?

0:12:13 > 0:12:17Well, I think so, since I can't quite remember the whole story!

0:12:17 > 0:12:19Well, do you know what, this is the beauty now.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I can go away, and this is the bit I love,

0:12:21 > 0:12:24- it's finding out exactly where this was.- OK.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26I think it's interesting to have...

0:12:26 > 0:12:29- This building is probably the same as it is now.- Well, that's right.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Yeah, I think I'll have that, if that's all right, for £20.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35I don't think you can do anything with the foxing, as it's watercolour.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38Sometimes it adds character, especially when it's got age.

0:12:38 > 0:12:39Do you know, I'll remember that.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42"Right, it's damage, but it's character." Right, there we are.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- I do the jokes, all right?- Sorry!

0:12:45 > 0:12:47THEY LAUGH

0:12:47 > 0:12:50Paul is a picture of happiness with his watercolour

0:12:50 > 0:12:54but David fights back when he spots an antique cigar cutter.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Have you dated it?

0:12:56 > 0:12:59- 1899.- 1899? There you go.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02There's the elusive genuine antique at a car boot. Not bad.

0:13:02 > 0:13:03What sort of money?

0:13:03 > 0:13:05- 65-ish.- Oof!

0:13:06 > 0:13:09There you go, the elusive antique at antique money.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12So, can you imagine you're a gentleman in your club in London?

0:13:12 > 0:13:16This is the kind of thing you would keep on your person at all times

0:13:16 > 0:13:18because whenever you fancied a cigar,

0:13:18 > 0:13:22you would use your cigar cutter, you'd put the cigar in the end,

0:13:22 > 0:13:24and rather than, as you see in the cowboy movies,

0:13:24 > 0:13:27they bite them off and then start smoking, that's very unrefined,

0:13:27 > 0:13:31the sophisticated way to do it, every gentleman knows this,

0:13:31 > 0:13:32you put your cigar in the end,

0:13:32 > 0:13:34nip the end off,

0:13:34 > 0:13:36a little tip comes out of here

0:13:36 > 0:13:39and a snapshot way back to the late Victorian period.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42What could we do? What can you do for me, Bill?

0:13:42 > 0:13:44- 50.- 50 quid.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48How about...? I'm going to offer you a challenge.

0:13:48 > 0:13:52Keen to get the best price, David wheels out his strategy again.

0:13:52 > 0:13:57- If I tell you a joke and you laugh...- Yeah?- ..40 quid.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00If you don't laugh, I'll give you your 50.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02If I don't laugh, 60.

0:14:02 > 0:14:06Oh, no! Because you look like a man who could possibly not laugh.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09- That's right.- That's slightly worrying to me.- That's right.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12You're laughing now, so maybe! It's from the Paul Hayes School Of Jokes.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- You're going to be in trouble. They're brilliant.- Come on.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17- OK, you ready? Are you prepared, Bill?- I'm prepared.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19- OK, just loosen up a bit.- I'm loose.

0:14:19 > 0:14:20- Relax.- I'm relaxed.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Get into the mode. It's going to be a short one,

0:14:23 > 0:14:25so you've got to keep your ears pricked.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27What did the 0 say to the 8?

0:14:29 > 0:14:31You say "I don't know."

0:14:31 > 0:14:32- I don't know.- "Nice belt."

0:14:34 > 0:14:37Look at the crowd! Look at my audience!

0:14:37 > 0:14:40They think it's hilarious, Bill!

0:14:40 > 0:14:45I can't believe it. The Paul Hayes School Of Jokes has failed.

0:14:45 > 0:14:46- 50 quid.- Thank you.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Well done, you just earned yourself a tenner.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52Yes, his joke may have fallen flat

0:14:52 > 0:14:56but the cigar cutter helps him catch up, making it three-four to Paul,

0:14:56 > 0:14:58but David soon makes it even

0:14:58 > 0:15:01when he spots a pair of candle lamps.

0:15:01 > 0:15:06They're good. What kind of money are they to me?

0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Go on, tempt me.- We've got... What have we got? We've got 20 on them.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12- 20, yeah.- 15?

0:15:12 > 0:15:17Ooh, you're a hard woman, aren't you? I can sense it, I can sense it.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19How about ten quid?

0:15:19 > 0:15:2012.

0:15:20 > 0:15:24Go on, then. Thank you very much. Marvellous.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27Well, there you go. I think that's a really nice, interesting purchase

0:15:27 > 0:15:32and always good to have a pair of anything but this is, for me,

0:15:32 > 0:15:35the interesting thing, the White Star, Liverpool, of course,

0:15:35 > 0:15:38representing the ocean liners.

0:15:38 > 0:15:41They're probably not in period and when I say in period,

0:15:41 > 0:15:45we're talking early 20th century, 1910, 1912,

0:15:45 > 0:15:49the time of the Titanic, but they've got the look,

0:15:49 > 0:15:51they're interesting, you have a pair of them,

0:15:51 > 0:15:54they're ready to hang on the wall, they're ready to go,

0:15:54 > 0:15:58and for 12 quid, £6 each, they are what I would describe as

0:15:58 > 0:16:03a true car-boot bargain. These are the things we're looking for.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07A deft move from the devilish one there

0:16:07 > 0:16:09but Paul sails back into the lead

0:16:09 > 0:16:12when he catches a fair wind and buys a naval uniform.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15You know what? The more I look at this, the more I really like it.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17It's a real quality naval uniform.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21It looks like the gentleman has seen some military service.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24These are all ribbons belonging to medals, and the colours

0:16:24 > 0:16:27of the ribbons represents which medal the gentleman actually won,

0:16:27 > 0:16:29it was awarded to.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32This one, to me, looks like Italy. This one is French and German

0:16:32 > 0:16:36and I think this one might actually be the Atlantic Fleet,

0:16:36 > 0:16:37to do with the Second World War.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40What I have got at home is a lovely reference book which I can look up

0:16:40 > 0:16:44each individual medal and see what campaigns he was involved in,

0:16:44 > 0:16:47and that might help me place where this uniform was worn.

0:16:47 > 0:16:51It would be fantastic if my theory about the stripes comes true

0:16:51 > 0:16:53and this is a high-ranking officer.

0:16:53 > 0:16:57Then we have got a great piece of naval history, all for 20 quid.

0:16:57 > 0:16:58Bargain, really.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01So Paul's happy with his suit and it's almost the end of round two

0:17:01 > 0:17:04but before the final gong sounds,

0:17:04 > 0:17:06Paul takes pity on David's clowning abilities

0:17:06 > 0:17:09and offers him a comedy masterclass.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12So why do golfers wear two pairs of trousers?

0:17:12 > 0:17:15- I don't know. - Just in case they get a hole-in-one.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18HE LAUGHS

0:17:18 > 0:17:19Look at that. Hey!

0:17:19 > 0:17:22Hey, he's good. He's good, isn't he?

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Send him back to Morecambe!

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Thank you very much! Now, don't forget, David,

0:17:27 > 0:17:28it's "Copyright Paul Hayes".

0:17:28 > 0:17:32So, armed with Paul's joke, David sets his sights on a shooting stick

0:17:32 > 0:17:34that he'd like to walk away with.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36That's a good shooting stick, don't you think?

0:17:36 > 0:17:40You know what these things are for? You can imagine going for...

0:17:40 > 0:17:42a shoot and while you're waiting,

0:17:42 > 0:17:46you can just push the stick into the ground

0:17:46 > 0:17:49and rest your weary legs, or, at the racecourse, of course,

0:17:49 > 0:17:53similarly, you could do that, you can go to a boating regatta,

0:17:53 > 0:17:56you could go for a picnic. It's just a good, useful thing,

0:17:56 > 0:17:59and what's really unusual with this is the leather.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02I mean, they're not always in leather but they're certainly not

0:18:02 > 0:18:06always in this leather, and this leather is ostrich.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08You can tell that by the big bobbles.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10So very thick, very hard-wearing,

0:18:10 > 0:18:13lovely colour, that kind of caramel colour.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17Good quality, made in England, with its original tag.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20Something like this, stamp on the base there, "Made In England",

0:18:20 > 0:18:24it's probably no more than 20 or 30 years old but it's just quality,

0:18:24 > 0:18:27and when you find something that is quality, it will scream it.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31So priced at £20, um...

0:18:31 > 0:18:34It's OK, could be doing with being a little cheaper,

0:18:34 > 0:18:37of course, but it is quality, so let's find a... Oh, Keith.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- You are the man, again. - Once again.- Once again.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45Come in to the lion's den, Keith.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48- What is the best for me?- The best...

0:18:48 > 0:18:51- Go on.- ..is 18.- £18?- 18.

0:18:51 > 0:18:53- £18?- Good price.

0:18:53 > 0:18:54What if...

0:18:54 > 0:18:58I deliver to you the best joke?

0:18:58 > 0:19:01Cos I've just been told it, Paul's just taught me this new joke.

0:19:01 > 0:19:0315 is as low as I can go.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05- 15 or 18, then. - CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM THEME PLAYS

0:19:05 > 0:19:09- That's how confident I am.- OK. - Are you a golfer, Keith?- No.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13- You know that they wear trousers, don't you?- Yes.- OK, get this, then.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17Why, then, do golfers wear four pairs of...

0:19:17 > 0:19:20No. I'll do that again. Why, then...

0:19:20 > 0:19:23Does that count? He just laughed. Hang on.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26David's doing his best, but he's no Paul Hayes.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30Why do golfers wear two pairs of trousers? All about delivery.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- Why do they were two pairs of trousers?- I don't know.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34Why do they wear two pairs of trousers?

0:19:34 > 0:19:36In case they get a hole-in-one.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Yes! Yes!

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Paul Hayes, that's one down to you.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45I owe Paul a couple of pints for that.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Keith, thank you very much. £15.

0:19:47 > 0:19:51And David's clanger sounds the end of the final round of buying,

0:19:51 > 0:19:54meaning it's time to see who's the crouching dealer

0:19:54 > 0:19:57and who's the leaping expert. Rarr!

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Our battling boys each started the day

0:20:00 > 0:20:03with £250 of their own money to spend.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06"Devilish" David Harper finishes with five purchases,

0:20:06 > 0:20:09having spent £137.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12Paul "Mr Morecambe" Hayes has matched him,

0:20:12 > 0:20:17also with 5 deals but spent less - just £99.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20But it's all about who will make the most profit.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25Our two karate kids have waxed on and waxed off,

0:20:25 > 0:20:27but now it's time for them to get together

0:20:27 > 0:20:30to wax lyrical about their day's purchases.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33- These are the way you like to do car boots, aren't they?- Under cover.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36Every car boot from now on should actually be under cover.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39- They're perfect.- Not a car in sight. - Not a car in sight. Who cares?

0:20:39 > 0:20:41It's a car boot indoors with no cars! It's great.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45- So how have you got on?- Brilliant! Interesting, quirky sorts of things.

0:20:45 > 0:20:49- Yes.- Lamps.- There's a running theme. You've got two pairs of lamps.

0:20:49 > 0:20:52- Two pairs of lamps.- This is the White Star Line, isn't that?

0:20:52 > 0:20:54- White Star Line, Titanic. - Titanic, yeah.

0:20:54 > 0:20:58Early 20th century, romantic, massive ocean-going liners,

0:20:58 > 0:20:59transatlantic, wonderful.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03- I must admit, though, I get that sinking feeling.- Oh, you do? - THEY LAUGH

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Now then, believe it or not, I have bought some quite serious items.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09- I bought two pieces of Maling. - Local interest.- Yeah, exactly.

0:21:09 > 0:21:12- A lovely watercolour.- Very nice, yes.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15So I think I could probably frame that up. And a naval jacket.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17This guy's seen a bit of history here, I think.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19- That...- Yes. - ..is so Paul Hayes.- It is.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- It's musical, just like you. - Do you want to hear some improv jazz?

0:21:23 > 0:21:27- Would you mind?- Are you ready? - Shall I count you in?- Go like that.

0:21:27 > 0:21:28One, two, three. Take it away.

0:21:28 > 0:21:33PLAYS TUNELESSLY

0:21:33 > 0:21:35- Come on, tap your feet. - No, that was rubbish. Oh, sorry.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38Excellent, Paul. You might need a bit of help with your recorder,

0:21:38 > 0:21:41- but never mind.- I think I need a bit of help with my jokes as well.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43You don't. Your jokes are magnificent.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46- Get your uniform on, get selling. - All right, good man.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52Our fantastic fighters might well be armed to the teeth

0:21:52 > 0:21:54with an assortment of wonderful weaponry,

0:21:54 > 0:21:57but they now step into the selling ring

0:21:57 > 0:21:59and prepare for the most ferocious fight yet.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02They'll be aiming high as they attempt to sell their goods

0:22:02 > 0:22:07for profit and maximise their margins in a bid to come out on top.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Back in Morecambe,

0:22:10 > 0:22:13Grandmaster Hayes is contemplating his day's catch.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16What have I bought? Well, I bought an eclectic mix.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19First of all, I bought a fantastic naval uniform,

0:22:19 > 0:22:20and it is from the British Navy.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23What threw me, actually, was the letter R on the arm,

0:22:23 > 0:22:25but that's the Reserves,

0:22:25 > 0:22:28so that's been a really interesting item to research.

0:22:28 > 0:22:32The maps - one good map of Gloucester which dates from maybe 1900,

0:22:32 > 0:22:351890, 1900. The other one of Hereford is a modern reproduction,

0:22:35 > 0:22:38so I need to find someone in the Gloucester area,

0:22:38 > 0:22:39hopefully, for that one.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42I was expecting to find some items like this. This is Maling,

0:22:42 > 0:22:44it's the biggest factory to come out of the Newcastle area.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46And then this one, the watercolour here -

0:22:46 > 0:22:49see, I'm using this as a pointer here - the watercolour,

0:22:49 > 0:22:52that actually turns out to be Saltwood Castle,

0:22:52 > 0:22:55which is in Hythe in Kent. And then, of course,

0:22:55 > 0:23:00I've got this do-it-yourself improv jazz busking kit.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01So take it away, fellas.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03PLAYS TUNELESSLY

0:23:03 > 0:23:04Oh, yeah!

0:23:04 > 0:23:07Oooh! Paul's in improv heaven,

0:23:07 > 0:23:10but how is David feeling in Barnard Castle?

0:23:10 > 0:23:13Well, I hope you're going to agree with me when I say

0:23:13 > 0:23:16that this is not a bad old haul for a car boot.

0:23:16 > 0:23:22So what have we got? A pair of 1930s glass hanging light shades.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Absolutely the business.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26This thing is really posh -

0:23:26 > 0:23:29a shooting stick covered in ostrich leather,

0:23:29 > 0:23:33or ostrich-esque leather, but really good quality.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36English-made. This is funky -

0:23:36 > 0:23:42my flask from the 1950s, made in Germany. Beautiful condition,

0:23:42 > 0:23:46so well engineered with its original leather carrying case.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49And then I've got a pair of candle lamps here,

0:23:49 > 0:23:52with the White Star Line emblem,

0:23:52 > 0:23:55so dating in their style to the early 20th century.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58Think Titanic, think 1912. Very glamorous.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01And then, the gentleman's bit of kit -

0:24:01 > 0:24:06the 1899 solid silver cigar cutter.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09So, all in all, that is the business.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13A great collection, great fun doing it,

0:24:13 > 0:24:16and now the real hard work begins,

0:24:16 > 0:24:20because everything on there has to be turned into hard cash.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22So here we go.

0:24:22 > 0:24:24Yes, he's not wrong.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27The gong sounds and the two tussling experts

0:24:27 > 0:24:29set about doing what they do best,

0:24:29 > 0:24:32finding buyers for their superlative sales items,

0:24:32 > 0:24:35knowing that until they get that final handshake

0:24:35 > 0:24:39and the money is in their hands, no deal is truly sealed.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46And nobody does it better than Paul Hayes.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48He's the first to get moving when he takes

0:24:48 > 0:24:51the World War II naval uniform for a trip to the coast.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57After doing some research on this jacket, on this uniform,

0:24:57 > 0:24:59this belonged to a Lieutenant Commander

0:24:59 > 0:25:01of the British Royal Navy.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05Actually, Paul, it's pronounced "LEFF-tenant", but carry on.

0:25:05 > 0:25:09Exactly the same regiment and rank as Mr James Bond.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Hayes, Paul Hayes...

0:25:11 > 0:25:16antiques agent double-oh, no, not another old joke.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19Paul spies a possible buyer for the naval suit that cost him

0:25:19 > 0:25:24£20, taking it to a naval museum in New Brighton run by Dougie.

0:25:24 > 0:25:25- BOTH:- Nice to see you.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28When I came across this, I wasn't sure what it represented.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30It looked like a British naval jacket.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33I looked at the ribbons on top here, and using a book,

0:25:33 > 0:25:36I've managed to work out what the ribbons are.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38You've got the 1939 Star, the Atlantic Star,

0:25:38 > 0:25:41which meant that he was in charge of the Atlantic crossings,

0:25:41 > 0:25:44the Italy Star, the Defence Medal, the War Medal,

0:25:44 > 0:25:47and a Long Service, Good Conduct medal.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50So chances are he was involved in the Atlantic Convoys.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53What was happening at the time then, during the Second World War?

0:25:53 > 0:25:56Well, certainly Liverpool was the gateway to America.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00I think the Battle of the Atlantic was actually the longest battle

0:26:00 > 0:26:04of the Second World War. Its headquarters was in Liverpool.

0:26:04 > 0:26:07So you think this may have had some connection to Liverpool, then?

0:26:07 > 0:26:11It could well have done, Paul. The chap, the person that owned it,

0:26:11 > 0:26:13would almost certainly have sailed from Liverpool

0:26:13 > 0:26:16at some point in his career, so it's welcome home, really.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18That's amazing, isn't it? It was meant to be.

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Is there any way you could actually trace this

0:26:20 > 0:26:23to a particular Lieutenant Commander?

0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Is there any way I can do that? - I doubt it.

0:26:25 > 0:26:29There may be a number inside, but it's a very, very long shot.

0:26:29 > 0:26:33So you would use this as an exhibit here, as a display piece?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35- Yes, definitely. - Well, I'd love you to have it.

0:26:35 > 0:26:37I think it's a great example.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40- There are a pair of pants there as well.- Yes, very nice.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42If I was to ask you £60 for this,

0:26:42 > 0:26:45would that be asking too much or would be a reasonable price?

0:26:45 > 0:26:47Yes, yeah, we are a museum of volunteers

0:26:47 > 0:26:49and don't really have great funds,

0:26:49 > 0:26:52but certainly, yes, I think we'd make that, yes.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55- Does that sound a reasonable price? - If you're happy, Paul, yes.

0:26:55 > 0:26:56I'm happy with that. Where do I get my medal?

0:26:56 > 0:26:59- Have you got my medal? For bad jokes. - I've got a big one.- Have you?

0:27:02 > 0:27:06An unshaken Paul stirs up a £40 profit on the uniform,

0:27:06 > 0:27:07and sails into the lead.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13You know what, it's hard to believe that that particular uniform

0:27:13 > 0:27:16of a Lieutenant Commander could have belonged to a gentleman

0:27:16 > 0:27:19that was on a vessel that sailed out from the centre of Liverpool here

0:27:19 > 0:27:21to protect the Atlantic convoys in that direction.

0:27:21 > 0:27:23Isn't that quite poignant?

0:27:23 > 0:27:25I'm delighted I found a good home for it, but a bit of profit,

0:27:25 > 0:27:28but you know what? I may have won the battle, David,

0:27:28 > 0:27:31but I haven't won the war yet. It's all hands on deck.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35Indeed it is, Paul. But David's feet are firmly on dry land,

0:27:35 > 0:27:38as he goes hunting for a big profit

0:27:38 > 0:27:41on his 1950s flask that cost him £25.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44He takes it to another Barnard Castle-based dealer,

0:27:44 > 0:27:46who is also called David,

0:27:46 > 0:27:49and who specialises in sporting antiques.

0:27:49 > 0:27:53Well, David, I want to show you the most wonderful flask.

0:27:53 > 0:27:57- It looks interesting, David. - You like that, don't you?- Yes, yes.

0:27:57 > 0:28:01Immediately, I knew that you would appreciate that lovely leather case.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04Something in a leather case like that is always for fishing people.

0:28:04 > 0:28:06So, hang on. There you go.

0:28:06 > 0:28:10So, a cracking leather case, and look at that thing.

0:28:10 > 0:28:13It's such engineered beauty.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16German manufactured, German engineered.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18- What sort of age would you think? - 50s?- Yes, yes.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21- I would go along with that. Can we open it?- Go for it.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23Oh, that looks good, David.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25- Doesn't it?- Yes. - Look at that cork.- Yes.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26The original cork.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28And look, that just slips on and stays there.

0:28:28 > 0:28:32- So the fishermen can have his soup or whatever he wants.- Yes.

0:28:32 > 0:28:34- Exactly.- No, that's a good thing, David.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36Now, would fishermen actually use that today,

0:28:36 > 0:28:39or was it just something that you would have

0:28:39 > 0:28:41- in your gentleman's study? - We have a lot of fishermen

0:28:41 > 0:28:46still fish with traditional tackle - split cane rods, the old reels,

0:28:46 > 0:28:47and they most certainly would.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51Right, so it's going to be used by a proper, traditional fisherman?

0:28:51 > 0:28:54More than likely. The crux of the matter is the price.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57I reckon if I could get somewhere around 50 quid.

0:28:58 > 0:29:01It's near the mark, but it's a bit high, David, at that.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03I would like to think I was selling it

0:29:03 > 0:29:05for just a little more than that, so I would want to make

0:29:05 > 0:29:07a little bit more margin.

0:29:07 > 0:29:12- 35?- It's a bit tight, I've got to say.- 45?

0:29:14 > 0:29:17- Let's shake on 40.- Go on, good man.

0:29:17 > 0:29:22David walks away with a nice, warm £15 profit on the flask.

0:29:22 > 0:29:24And continues on his selling streak

0:29:24 > 0:29:27as he takes the green glass hanging lamps to Gloucester

0:29:27 > 0:29:32to show dealer Andy. David paid £35 for the pair,

0:29:32 > 0:29:35so will Andy help illuminate a profit?

0:29:35 > 0:29:36Well, Andy, I'm really hoping that

0:29:36 > 0:29:39these are absolutely right up your street.

0:29:39 > 0:29:44- I like them immensely, actually. - When you catch them in the light, don't they look great?- They are.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46They're meant to have bulbs in of some kind, aren't they?

0:29:46 > 0:29:49Well, they are lanterns, so you just drop them in.

0:29:49 > 0:29:51I've even got a 1930s original in there,

0:29:51 > 0:29:52which I don't think you'll be using.

0:29:52 > 0:29:55- No, I don't it'll pass the safety standards.- Exactly.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58We'll put a new one in. I've got a feeling that the wire was made,

0:29:58 > 0:30:01and then the glass was blown inside it, because it fits so tight.

0:30:01 > 0:30:05I think date-wise, 1930s.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Yeah, I would have said the same. Possibly a touch earlier.

0:30:08 > 0:30:09Possibly.

0:30:09 > 0:30:14When I saw these, I just pictured a 1930s semi anywhere in Britain,

0:30:14 > 0:30:19with these hanging, one in the hall, maybe one in the downstairs loo.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21- So I want to sell them as a pair.- OK.

0:30:21 > 0:30:25- Would you be up for that, first of all?- Yeah, yeah, definitely.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27- You sure?- Yeah. They look well together.

0:30:27 > 0:30:31For the pair, I think 100 quid for the pair.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37- Can you do a touch better? - What are you thinking?

0:30:37 > 0:30:39Even a tenner off or something?

0:30:39 > 0:30:41- 90 quid?- Yeah.- Bang on. Absolutely.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Thank you. As always, a pleasure.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47David makes a fabulous £55 profit for the lamps

0:30:47 > 0:30:49and he's all lit up.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:30:54 > 0:30:56But Paul isn't in his shadow for long

0:30:56 > 0:30:59as sells the pre-war Maling china vases

0:30:59 > 0:31:03that cost him £40 to Lewes-based antiques emporium owner Michelle,

0:31:03 > 0:31:07delivering a modest £5 profit for the pair.

0:31:09 > 0:31:13Leading the way, Paul is like the pied piper of Morecambe.

0:31:13 > 0:31:14PLAYS TUNELESSLY

0:31:14 > 0:31:16I'll tell you something,

0:31:16 > 0:31:19this do-it-yourself busking kit wasn't the best idea I've had.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21It's time now to try and move this recorder on.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24I brought it to a friend of mine, Mabli, who wants to buy it.

0:31:24 > 0:31:26I think it's a bit bigger than the one she's got

0:31:26 > 0:31:29and it's a great instrument. So, on this note, it's not over

0:31:29 > 0:31:32until I've played a tune that's recognisable.

0:31:32 > 0:31:36That may be some time. The recorder set him back £5,

0:31:36 > 0:31:40so will he make a profit from musician Mabli?

0:31:40 > 0:31:43- So, Mabli, It's lovely to see you. - And you.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45And I believe that you have an interest in the recorder.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49- My background to all of this is that I'm a singer.- OK.

0:31:49 > 0:31:50But I'm getting older

0:31:50 > 0:31:54and I know my voice isn't as good now as it was when I was younger.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56But when I decide to stop singing,

0:31:56 > 0:31:59- I still want to be involved in music.- Right.

0:31:59 > 0:32:03So I thought, "I know, I'll go back to the recorder,"

0:32:03 > 0:32:05which was something I learnt some years ago.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08So what have I bought here? This is a lot smaller than this one.

0:32:08 > 0:32:11- Well, that's a treble recorder. - A treble recorder.

0:32:11 > 0:32:15- So you can expect to get much richer notes out of it.- OK.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17This is a descant recorder, and it's the type of recorder

0:32:17 > 0:32:21normally given to a child, usually in school music lessons.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23This is an Allios.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26In the older days, the Allios was the one.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28And this one's a Japanese one, this one.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31- I know that cos it says Japan on the bottom.- Oh.

0:32:31 > 0:32:33- Is it the sort of thing you want to buy?- Yes, please.

0:32:33 > 0:32:35If I was to ask you £20,

0:32:35 > 0:32:37is that about the going rate for these or...?

0:32:37 > 0:32:39- I think I had in my mind 15.- 15.

0:32:39 > 0:32:42- Right, OK. - But I'd like you to play me a tune

0:32:42 > 0:32:45- and I'll put something in your hat. - OK, that's fine.

0:32:45 > 0:32:48PLAYS TUNELESSLY

0:32:48 > 0:32:50I've got a real feel for jazz.

0:32:50 > 0:32:53Expecting to see this snake appear.

0:32:53 > 0:32:57- All right, well, there we go.- Lovely. Thank you much.- Thank you very much.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00- Thank you, Paul.- You're very welcome. Would you like an encore?

0:33:00 > 0:33:02- No. - THEY LAUGH

0:33:02 > 0:33:03Thank goodness for that.

0:33:03 > 0:33:06Mabli pays the piper and gives Paul a £10 profit,

0:33:06 > 0:33:09having trebled his money with the treble recorder.

0:33:09 > 0:33:11It's music to my ears, I think.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14With Paul busy profiteering

0:33:14 > 0:33:17and David determinedly dealing, it's time to find out

0:33:17 > 0:33:18who's bringing home the bacon

0:33:18 > 0:33:21and who needs to turn up the temperature.

0:33:23 > 0:33:24"Devilish" David Harper has

0:33:24 > 0:33:29so far sold 2 items, turning a profit of £70.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32But Paul "Mr Morecambe" Hayes has done three deals

0:33:32 > 0:33:36and is only just behind, having banked £55.

0:33:38 > 0:33:40With Paul trailing behind David,

0:33:40 > 0:33:44he'll need to accentuate his abilities to eliminate his opponent.

0:33:44 > 0:33:47But it's David who is cruising towards his next sale.

0:33:48 > 0:33:52The pair of early-20th-century-style White Star candle lamps

0:33:52 > 0:33:57cost David £12, so he's hoping to bring home a TITANIC profit.

0:33:57 > 0:34:00I haven't travelled very far from North Shields with my two lanterns.

0:34:00 > 0:34:04I've come right to the city centre of Durham to see a friend of mine

0:34:04 > 0:34:08who has a cafe right up that dark, steep alleyway,

0:34:08 > 0:34:12cos I think these are right up his...well, alley.

0:34:13 > 0:34:17Now Michael, have you heard of the White Star Line?

0:34:17 > 0:34:21Come on, David. Who hasn't heard of the White Star Line?

0:34:21 > 0:34:24- We're talking Titanic here. - We know we're talking Titanic.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27Right, well there you go. We've got the early 20th century,

0:34:27 > 0:34:32the romance of those ocean-going liners crossing over to New York.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34That was the way to do it.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38Michael, if you were doing that circa 1910, 1920,

0:34:38 > 0:34:41and you were wandering down through the bar,

0:34:41 > 0:34:46you would see plenty of objects like this, with the White Star Line

0:34:46 > 0:34:51company logo, and these objects, I think, are actually in period.

0:34:51 > 0:34:55I think they are early 20th century. They've been used.

0:34:55 > 0:34:58Initially, I thought they'd been converted from oil - they haven't.

0:34:58 > 0:34:59They've always been candle holders.

0:34:59 > 0:35:03- You could put a little lamp in those, actually.- You could.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06- Would they work in your cafe? - I can see them working, yeah.

0:35:06 > 0:35:09It's funny, because they're not as uncommon as I'd imagined

0:35:09 > 0:35:14they would or should be. I found a couple of pairs for sale online.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17- The pair on auction were hovering around 80 quid.- Right.

0:35:17 > 0:35:22I think I absolutely bagged a pair of beauty bargains

0:35:22 > 0:35:23when I bought these.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25- Nice one.- So I'm going to give you treat.

0:35:25 > 0:35:30So if I said to you £55, Michael, for the pair...

0:35:31 > 0:35:34- Is that it? Have we done a deal?- Done!

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Michael snaps up the lamps at £55

0:35:37 > 0:35:40and David floats away with a profit of £43.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45Percentage-wise, that is a cracking profit.

0:35:45 > 0:35:47Beat that, Mr Hayes.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49Yes, fighting talk from the devilish one,

0:35:49 > 0:35:53but Paul is far from losing or being lost.

0:35:53 > 0:35:56He knows exactly where to go for his next sale.

0:35:56 > 0:35:59Now then, remember these two maps that I got in North Shields?

0:35:59 > 0:36:01One was of Hereford, and one of Gloucestershire.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03I'm in Gloucestershire.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05I'm in Tewkesbury today, and I thought I'd try my luck.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08There's a local bookshop here that sells antiquarian maps

0:36:08 > 0:36:11and books, and hopefully they're just down his alley.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14But which way is it? I think it's over there somewhere.

0:36:14 > 0:36:18Paul paid £14 for the pair of maps and he takes them

0:36:18 > 0:36:20to map collector Graham.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24So, Graham, It's a pleasure to meet you. Now, I've contacted you.

0:36:24 > 0:36:25I've got some maps for you.

0:36:25 > 0:36:28I've come across these two and I don't know whether you've come across

0:36:28 > 0:36:31this one, the map of Gloucestershire I'm bringing you in.

0:36:31 > 0:36:34And it does look like it's been a folded map of some sort.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36- Do you recognise that one straight away?- Yes.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39- I certainly recognise the vintage.- Right.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42With maps of this vintage, the first thing you look for is the railways.

0:36:42 > 0:36:44OK. And what sort of period are we looking for?

0:36:44 > 0:36:47I would place that round about 1840s.

0:36:47 > 0:36:51You've got the main railway coming down there from Birmingham,

0:36:51 > 0:36:53- which is off the map. - So that's this big, black line here.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56That's the railway line. OK. Now, this one, it came in with it.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59The reason I'm showing you these separately, it says on the back here,

0:36:59 > 0:37:02"From a map of 1840 by Thomas Moule." So it's the right age.

0:37:02 > 0:37:06But this one's a reproduction. You can tell by the colour of the paper.

0:37:06 > 0:37:09Even though the frame is the same, totally different period.

0:37:09 > 0:37:13This one's a new, this one's 1840s. That's what I was thinking, actually.

0:37:13 > 0:37:17- If I said how does £20 for the pair sound?- I think I can do that.

0:37:17 > 0:37:19- Does that sound reasonable? - I can make something on that.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21We'll shake on that, Graham.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23Paul finds his way to a £6 profit for the maps

0:37:23 > 0:37:26and he's down to his final item.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29Hey-hey!

0:37:29 > 0:37:32It's the 19th-century watercolour of Saltwood Castle,

0:37:32 > 0:37:36which he bought for £20 and spent a further £8 reframing.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39But "Mr Morecambe" makes a loss

0:37:39 > 0:37:42when he sells the picture to antiques dealer Ruth.

0:37:42 > 0:37:46After framing costs, Paul ends up £3 down on the deal,

0:37:46 > 0:37:48but all his items are sold.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50David, however, is still on a mission

0:37:50 > 0:37:52to sell his last two purchases

0:37:52 > 0:37:55before the final bell tolls.

0:37:55 > 0:38:00The shooting stick cost David £15, so will it fetch him a good profit?

0:38:00 > 0:38:04Well, here we are in Barnard Castle with my very stylish,

0:38:04 > 0:38:08very posh, in actual fact, hunting-fishing-shooting stick,

0:38:08 > 0:38:12covered in ostrich hide. A vintage object if ever I've seen one.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Now, you know what the trick to selling is?

0:38:14 > 0:38:17Always take the right item to the right market.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19I'm going to go and see Donna.

0:38:19 > 0:38:21She owns a country workshop here in Barnard Castle,

0:38:21 > 0:38:24she deals with all the hunting-fishing-shooting brigade,

0:38:24 > 0:38:29and let me tell you this - they are the right market for this.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35Oh, it is very nice, yes. It is. Very nice indeed.

0:38:35 > 0:38:39- That is a delicious seat, isn't it? - Very nice.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42And the fact that it's covered in ostrich hide,

0:38:42 > 0:38:45I think is incredibly rare. I've never seen one in ostrich before.

0:38:45 > 0:38:47I must admit, I haven't seen one like this either.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50- And this is the original there. - Maker's tag. Aluminium frame.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53I think it's probably 20 to 40 years old.

0:38:53 > 0:38:58Made in England, and look at this. I mean, come on. At the races? Yes?

0:38:58 > 0:39:02- Absolutely.- Sitting down. - Pass the champagne.- Oh, hello.

0:39:02 > 0:39:07A couple of glasses and I'm off! But that's all part of the fun.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10So, at the right money, you'd be keen for it?

0:39:10 > 0:39:12At the right money, yes.

0:39:12 > 0:39:16- What with the right money be to you? - Oh, I don't know.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18I'd maybe be looking at...

0:39:18 > 0:39:2425, possibly 30. I'd need to make a bit of profit on myself as well.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Donna, Donna, Donna.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29- 40.- Oh. I couldn't go to 40.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32- You couldn't?- No, no.

0:39:32 > 0:39:3435.

0:39:34 > 0:39:38And it's a deal. It would look lovely in the window.

0:39:38 > 0:39:42I think I've done all right. 35, well done. Thank you. Thank you.

0:39:42 > 0:39:45The shooting stick provides David with a £20 profit

0:39:45 > 0:39:47and he's down to his final item.

0:39:48 > 0:39:52David takes the cigar cutter that cost him £50 to Rosie,

0:39:52 > 0:39:55who works in the Bowes Museum in Barnard Castle,

0:39:55 > 0:39:57hoping to smoke out a bit of profit.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00- What a place to work, Rosie.- I know.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04I'd better just explain that this is actually my house,

0:40:04 > 0:40:07- and Rosie is my housekeeper. - It's the other way round!

0:40:07 > 0:40:12And of course, you're from Paul Hayes' territory, the Northwest.

0:40:12 > 0:40:14- Really?- That's just dawned on me. - Really?

0:40:14 > 0:40:18Yes, that makes me all the more keen to sell you...

0:40:18 > 0:40:23this wonderful cigar cutter. You have a hold of that.

0:40:23 > 0:40:261899, that was made. In London.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28- Solid silver. - It's nice and heavy.- Exactly.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31That's a side of quality in almost everything, in actual fact.

0:40:31 > 0:40:35Shall I demonstrate? So, there's the end of your cigar.

0:40:35 > 0:40:37Simply, you place that very safely

0:40:37 > 0:40:43- into that end, nice and gently cut, and there we have it.- Wow.

0:40:43 > 0:40:46But will Rosie want to buy the cigar cutter?

0:40:46 > 0:40:50And will David be able to snip off enough of a profit

0:40:50 > 0:40:53to propel himself to the winner's podium?

0:40:53 > 0:40:55All will soon be revealed.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59David and Paul each started the day

0:40:59 > 0:41:03with £250 of their own money to spend.

0:41:03 > 0:41:09"Devilish" David Harper made five purchases and spent £137.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11Paul "Mr Morecambe" Hayes matched him,

0:41:11 > 0:41:15also with five deals and spent £107 with restoration fees.

0:41:17 > 0:41:21But all that matters now is who's made the biggest profit.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24All of the money that David and Paul have made from today's challenge

0:41:24 > 0:41:26will be going to charities of their choice.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29So without further ado, let's find out who is today's

0:41:29 > 0:41:32Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Champion.

0:41:32 > 0:41:35- Now then, David. How are you? - Paul, great to see you.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37- Great to see you too. - From a car boot to this.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39Have we gone up in the world or what?

0:41:39 > 0:41:41- It's what we're used to, isn't it(?) - It is!

0:41:41 > 0:41:45- I live in a place like this, Paul! - How did you get on?- Not bad.

0:41:45 > 0:41:46- Good?- Not bad.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49The two White Star Line candleholders, sold them

0:41:49 > 0:41:51to a pal of mine who has a cafe.

0:41:51 > 0:41:53- He absolutely loved them.- Brilliant!

0:41:53 > 0:41:56They were great. So, all in all, pretty good. What about you?

0:41:56 > 0:41:59Well, my lot really was a bit of a research curve.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01- Remember that naval jacket?- Yes.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03It turned out to belong to a Commander

0:42:03 > 0:42:05of the British Royal Naval Reserves,

0:42:05 > 0:42:08and chances are it could have been used in the Second World War,

0:42:08 > 0:42:09possibly aboard a submarine.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12- Isn't that wonderful? - Are we ready for it?- I'm ready.

0:42:12 > 0:42:14- Good luck.- Good luck to you, mate.

0:42:14 > 0:42:15Three, two, one.

0:42:15 > 0:42:16THEY CHEER

0:42:16 > 0:42:19Well done, mate. That's great. A great bit of profit.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22- It's not bad. But you're not a million miles away.- Well done.

0:42:22 > 0:42:26Yes, David won today, because even though Rosie refused

0:42:26 > 0:42:28to by the cigar cutter...

0:42:28 > 0:42:29Whilst it's lovely...

0:42:30 > 0:42:32..it's not for me.

0:42:32 > 0:42:37..David still managed to sell it for £100 to fellow dealer Anthony,

0:42:37 > 0:42:40earning a £50 profit and compounding his win.

0:42:43 > 0:42:47It's always a very satisfying feeling to go to a car boot,

0:42:47 > 0:42:50pull some antiques out that shouldn't really be there,

0:42:50 > 0:42:52and then move them on for profit.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55It's exactly what I'd done and it's a good feeling.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59Who'd have thought that naval jacket would have so much history to it?

0:42:59 > 0:43:02I made a bit of a mistake with the watercolour, had that reframed

0:43:02 > 0:43:05but didn't factor the cost in, but overall, it was a good challenge

0:43:05 > 0:43:07and you did well, David.

0:43:07 > 0:43:11So David is triumphant today, but tomorrow Paul has the chance

0:43:11 > 0:43:15to fight back as our brave boys go head to head in the battle

0:43:15 > 0:43:19to end all battles, the Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is showdown!
