:19:10. > :19:13.What would you take? I can't take less than a tenner. It's worth a
:19:14. > :19:18.fiver to me. I could keep it meself for a fiver. Give me a tenner, come
:19:19. > :19:21.on. Put a glass in and that's worth ?45 to somebody. A tenner. Go on,
:19:22. > :19:23.then. There's ?10 there. Thank you very much. Thank you very much
:19:24. > :19:26.indeed. 'Going home with a Hollywood screen
:19:27. > :19:30.goddess, 'Jonty, you lucky boy!' Who would have thought it, coming into
:19:31. > :19:33.this market I'd walk away with Judy Garland? I need to take the glass
:19:34. > :19:38.out of this frame, but underneath all of this I'm sure is a publicity
:19:39. > :19:42.still of Judy Garland. Whether it's a photograph or a reproduction of a
:19:43. > :19:45.photograph, I'm not sure. If it's a genuine photograph, it's going to
:19:46. > :19:53.have a lot of value. If it's not, then it's not worth a great deal.
:19:54. > :19:56.Jonty snapped a right beauty and is sitting pretty. Across the boot
:19:57. > :19:59.fair, it's last-chance saloon for Paul, 'desperately trying to spend
:20:00. > :20:03.his money.' Do you know what? It's late in the day. I don't really buy
:20:04. > :20:11.this sort of thing, but it's speaking to me. Good garden statues
:20:12. > :20:17.can be very expensive. What do we know about this lion? It's about 30
:20:18. > :20:21.years old, I think. A little bit out the back, a little chunk. How much
:20:22. > :20:26.is he? It's a fiver. Can't say fairer than that. I shall have that.
:20:27. > :20:36.Lovely. Cheers. They've done all they can. Buying
:20:37. > :20:40.time is up. 'With his last-minute lion at his side, Paul's hoping he's
:20:41. > :20:42.done enough to ride away with this one.
:20:43. > :20:46.It's been a really enjoyable day. It is more like an antiques fair. All
:20:47. > :20:50.my buying's now done, so it's time to get on my bike and to get meself
:20:51. > :20:53.home! Oh! Gizza push! 'You won't make it far on that!
:20:54. > :20:57.You're wobbling all over the place. 'Time to tally up today's spending
:20:58. > :21:01.totals. Jonty and Paul both started the day with ?250 of their own
:21:02. > :21:07.money. 'Jonty has made six deals and spent... 'Paul also picked up six
:21:08. > :21:10.purchases, but spent quite a bit more... 'This is all about who's

:21:27. > :21:32.it? It's more like an antique fair. It's a good market, but didn't it go
:21:33. > :21:35.fast? Very fast. What's your favourite thing? I think I'm
:21:36. > :21:40.genuinely pleased with everything. Like my cracking picture? What made
:21:41. > :21:46.you buy a broken picture? It's what's behind the glass. Is that
:21:47. > :21:50.what it is? Record player? What's that about? It's rock 'n' roll. That
:21:51. > :21:53.is just me. Does it work? It certainly does. It can play Cliff
:21:54. > :22:01.Richard records. Only Cliff Richard records? The one I put my neck on
:22:02. > :22:09.the line for is the fountain pen. I paid ?50 for that. Did you? Yes. The
:22:10. > :22:13.writing's on the wall! I paid ?14.50 for my table. That's a really good
:22:14. > :22:16.buy. Everything was cheap, so I'm hoping I'm going to make some
:22:17. > :22:21.profit. Enjoyed the purchasing. Enjoy the selling. Will do.
:22:22. > :22:26.So, the blockbuster of buying has reached its epic conclusion. 'Let
:22:27. > :22:29.selling commence as our two trading titans journey home 'to start the
:22:30. > :22:32.preparations for turning their trinkets into top dollar. 'Back in
:22:33. > :22:36.Oxfordshire, Jonty's feeling top of his game 'as he takes stock of his
:22:37. > :22:41.looty from the booty.' This is my armoury to beat Paul Hayes from the
:22:42. > :22:45.boot sale. I'm really quite pleased with the collection in front of me.
:22:46. > :22:51.I am very excited with my last purchase, the Judy Garland. The
:22:52. > :22:55.table is probably not a very big return. I've managed to find a
:22:56. > :22:58.tartan shop in London. I can't wait to see them because they are
:22:59. > :23:04.genuinely interested in looking at this book. I loved it and I'm
:23:05. > :23:07.pleased they want to see it. The globe was a brilliant investment and
:23:08. > :23:12.the truncheon, that was probably one of my most expensive buys. Of
:23:13. > :23:16.course, everyone loves tea. I now have to do my homework to find those
:23:17. > :23:20.buyers. So, as Jonty prepares for battle,
:23:21. > :23:23.'over at Hayes HQ, Paul is assessing his armoury.' We've returned from
:23:24. > :23:25.the car-boot sale and I think I've got the upper hand on that Jonty
:23:26. > :23:28.Hearnden. My favourite item has to be this
:23:29. > :23:32.wonderful record player which dates from the 1950s. We also have a stone
:23:33. > :23:36.lion. These things are great items for a garden. It's cost me ?5.
:23:37. > :23:39.There's going to be a buyer out there for that. We've got a
:23:40. > :23:42.telescope here. This dates a little bit earlier than what I expected.
:23:43. > :23:46.This one's about 1805, 1810. The fountain pen is a British maker and
:23:47. > :23:49.it's in great condition. Hopefully, I've got somebody interested in
:23:50. > :23:51.that. The Cenotaph and then the bowls. Apparently, these are three
:23:52. > :23:55.bias and they bend quite quickly. So, Jonty Hearnden, I'm going to
:23:56. > :23:58.bowl you over with all the profit I'm going to make and set you in a
:23:59. > :24:15.spin! The laugh of an evil mastermind.
:24:16. > :24:18.Wa-hahahahaha! 'Both our selling strategists must hit the phones and
:24:19. > :24:21.tap up their contacts 'but no deal is done until it's sealed with a
:24:22. > :24:29.handshake. 'As the mighty sellathon begins, it's Jonty who's first off
:24:30. > :24:34.the blocks. He's got the whole world in his hands as he heads to the
:24:35. > :24:38.riverside town of Henley-On-Thames. I've got my globe with me, which
:24:39. > :24:42.cost me ?15. I've come to show it to Gillian, who runs a travel agency
:24:43. > :24:52.here in Henley-On-Thames. I think I could be in for a bit of a profit.
:24:53. > :24:57.Would you like to have a good old gander at that? Yes. Lovely. What do
:24:58. > :25:00.you think? It's lovely. It's made of tin and, date-wise, it's probably
:25:01. > :25:03.late 1950s or early 1960s. It's around 50 years in date. This is
:25:04. > :25:07.made by a company called Chad Valley. Chad Valley made toys and
:25:08. > :25:10.games. I remember. Is it a name that resonates with you? Yeah.
:25:11. > :25:14.Definitely. A good talking piece for children when we have families come
:25:15. > :25:21.in. I can imagine the kids having a look and thinking, "Where is that?"
:25:22. > :25:27.For a business like this, I hope it's up your street. What cost were
:25:28. > :25:32.you thinking? I'm looking for ?80. 80. Would you be open to an offer?
:25:33. > :25:37.I'm always open to an offer. If we said 65...? I'm happy with ?65.
:25:38. > :25:46.Yeah? Thank you very much indeed. Yeah. Thank you.
:25:47. > :25:54.Jonty's off to a storming start with a profit of ?50. 'Paul is no slouch
:25:55. > :25:57.and he's marching through Morecambe to meet Paul Lomax 'a collector of
:25:58. > :25:59.war memorabilia at the town's Cenotaph.
:26:00. > :26:03.Now then, Paul. How are you? I'm fine, thank you. Great to see you.
:26:04. > :26:07.You have an association with the armed forces? I do. I worked in Iraq
:26:08. > :26:10.with the coalition f What's the idea with a Cenotaph? What was the idea
:26:11. > :26:13.of the monument? Primarily, they were built by the varying councils
:26:14. > :26:16.just to, literally, remember the dead. Somewhere that people could
:26:17. > :26:20.gather on 11th November of each year to pay their respects on the
:26:21. > :26:26.Armistice Day. Have you come across this model? I haven't, the one of
:26:27. > :26:31.Pevensey. I've got several similar in my own collection. This one, it
:26:32. > :26:35.does say, it was made in 1919. I believe it was modelled on the
:26:36. > :26:38.Cenotaph in Whitehall. Is it the sort of thing you'd like to add to
:26:39. > :26:47.your collection? Yes. Always room for one more. I haven't got a
:26:48. > :26:51.Pevensey one. Depending on what you were looking for it, I would be
:26:52. > :26:55.interested. It stands me at a tenner. How would you see it? I'd be
:26:56. > :26:59.more than willing to pay 20 and put it in my collection. We'll shake on
:27:00. > :27:02.that, Pau It's been a pleasure. No problem whatsoever. 'With military
:27:03. > :27:04.precision, Paul makes ?10 on the china memorial statue, 'doubling his
:27:05. > :27:06.money.' That's part of the enjoyment.
:27:07. > :27:11.I found a genuine collector of those Cenotaphs.
:27:12. > :27:14.Paul's delighted. There's a bit of profit in the meantime as well. It's
:27:15. > :27:18.a win-win situation. 'Down south, Paul's rival is taking
:27:19. > :27:22.a trip to the big smoke, 'the capital, London town. 'We all know
:27:23. > :27:25.that Jonty chooses his purchases with precision, 'always taking his
:27:26. > :27:31.items to the most relevant of places. 'So, here he is with an item
:27:32. > :27:35.no Londoner can live without(!). So, I have with me my Scottish clans
:27:36. > :27:39.book which I bought in the market for ?5. I'm here in the centre of
:27:40. > :27:43.London because I've come to meet Stephen, who operates, believe it or
:27:44. > :27:55.not, a tartan shop business. He could be just the right person.
:27:56. > :27:59.'Yes, Jonty's not going to let the 500 miles between London and the
:28:00. > :28:01.Highlands 'get in the way of a good deal. 'He's found an English kilt
:28:02. > :28:04.shop! I've brought you my little book
:28:05. > :28:20.here. It's seen better days, I have to tell you. OK. If I show it to
:28:21. > :28:23.you. What really interests me is the tartans themselves. They're
:28:24. > :28:27.wonderful colours. Yes. They do look very nice. It's quite a fun piece. I
:28:28. > :28:30.think the first tartans, or first kilts, were around, what, third to
:28:31. > :28:33.fourth century AD? They were originally like that and they
:28:34. > :28:37.weren't pleated, as they currently are. They were folded up. You laid
:28:38. > :28:39.down on the floor and wrap a belt round. There'd just be some sort of
:28:40. > :28:53.pleating to them. ?50 is a bit over the top for us but
:28:54. > :28:58.it is authentic. Would you consider something like 35? I would like a
:28:59. > :29:08.bit more for me. How do you feel about getting close to 35? I will do
:29:09. > :29:16.40. Thank you so much. ?40 for the book means a whopping ?35 profit.
:29:17. > :29:20.Then Jonty turns to the fulfilment of a long-term ambition on the tails
:29:21. > :29:28.of his success. I have a confession. I have never one kilt -- one kilt.
:29:29. > :29:41.Would you like to try an English kilt? What do you reckon? That is
:29:42. > :29:46.just me! It is a bonny site! What is under your sporran, Jonty? Yes, some
:29:47. > :29:53.things are best left to the imagination! Paul breezes through
:29:54. > :29:58.yet another sale as he makes ?10 profit on his lion statue and he is
:29:59. > :30:08.not stopping there. He takes his ?50 pen to Mark, a vintage fountain pen
:30:09. > :30:14.dealer. Was this the company that made them? It might have started off
:30:15. > :30:24.as Todd and barred in the States and then brought a across to the UK. My
:30:25. > :30:30.initial reaction is that it is a grey snakeskin spend dating from
:30:31. > :30:36.1936 to about 1938. -- snakeskin pen. They started off with a
:30:37. > :30:43.number-1 neighbour and this is a number two but it went right up to
:30:44. > :30:51.number eight. Would it be something you wanted to buy? Do you want to
:30:52. > :31:04.give it ten for the box? ?50, including the box. No problem. ?60.
:31:05. > :31:09.Another profit for Paul as he makes ?10 on the pen. But don't write
:31:10. > :31:14.Jonty off just yet. He is at the Metropolitan Police Museum to show
:31:15. > :31:20.his Victoria and truncheon to the museum's Crater, Neil. I know the
:31:21. > :31:26.timber is lignum vitae, a very dense, tropical hardwood. Can see
:31:27. > :31:33.the different officer numbers on the side. Roundabout 1900 it would have
:31:34. > :31:44.been issued. This would have been used up to 1945, 19 50s. So during
:31:45. > :31:48.the war? Yes. So far, so good, but this isn't going to be as
:31:49. > :31:54.straightforward as Jonty thinks. Well, it would be an offence for you
:31:55. > :31:58.to walk around the streets with this because it is an offensive weapon so
:31:59. > :32:04.you cannot just bring it to London. But you can still trade these
:32:05. > :32:13.objects? Yes, the law was never meant to stop antiques traders
:32:14. > :32:16.trading objects from the past. I now feel really uncomfortable taking it
:32:17. > :32:19.away because it is not the right thing to do, so I am going to donate
:32:20. > :32:25.it to your collection, if that is all right for you. We are very
:32:26. > :32:30.pleased to accept it. Thank you. We will put it with the others. My
:32:31. > :32:37.lesson is, don't buy another truncheon! Jonty's generous donation
:32:38. > :32:43.to the museum means he has taken a ?20 hit. I have lost the sale thigh
:32:44. > :32:47.am disappointed but I feel so much more comfortable leaving it here,
:32:48. > :32:54.because, technically, the truncheon is a weapon best left in their
:32:55. > :33:00.collection. -- I have lost the sale and I am disappointed. It now means
:33:01. > :33:03.I have a lot more work to do. We are halfway through the selling and it's
:33:04. > :33:08.time to look at the totals to see who is feeling more like Mr
:33:09. > :33:12.moneybags and who is more of a peddling pauper. Jonty has sold two
:33:13. > :33:18.items, but lost money on the truncheon, giving him a profit of
:33:19. > :33:25.?65. Paul is not far behind with a profit of ?30. So, right now, Jonty
:33:26. > :33:30.may have the lead but you would not want to predict who is going to
:33:31. > :33:33.finish champion in this trading tug-of-war, as both our selling
:33:34. > :33:37.strongmen have a tight grip on the rope and are heaving towards the
:33:38. > :33:42.profit. And it is Jonty who is hoping to pull away as he takes his
:33:43. > :33:51.?14 50 wooden table to see Sarah, the deputy manager of a local hotel.
:33:52. > :34:01.-- ?14.50. Isn't that a lovely table? It is very intricate. Inside
:34:02. > :34:05.is brass and it has hinges. That is lovely. The whole idea is the top
:34:06. > :34:09.can come off and fold the base away so it on sports, so it is a
:34:10. > :34:14.classical design of an Indian table. Do you think you have room for a lot
:34:15. > :34:19.of table like this? I think we can find somewhere for it. I should
:34:20. > :34:28.think that fits somewhere! It is a very cheap table. It is ?60. I would
:34:29. > :34:35.feel better about 50! I am happy to take ?50 from you. Thank you Ray
:34:36. > :34:41.much indeed. It is all yours. So a tremendous profit of ?35, and he
:34:42. > :34:46.doesn't stop there as he goes on to make a profit of ?10 on his Shelley
:34:47. > :34:54.tea set. Paul heads to his local Bowls club where he is hoping Bob
:34:55. > :35:01.can spin him a profit. I have got this wonderful set of goals. Lovely
:35:02. > :35:12.box! Yes, that is thrown in. What can you tell me about these? These
:35:13. > :35:19.come in different weights. These are flat Scottish Green Bowls. So why
:35:20. > :35:28.did pick the right one? Yes. So I throw it along... Right over to the
:35:29. > :35:43.jack. That is fantastic. Chalets have a go? -- shall I have a go?
:35:44. > :35:57.That is miles out! They are heavy. I think we are insured, I'm not sure!
:35:58. > :36:05.They vary from ?5. Each? ?10 each? I could settle for that. I will throw
:36:06. > :36:13.the box in. Thank you very much! Paul spent ?50 on his Bowls, which
:36:14. > :36:16.means he gets a profit of ?25. Back in Oxbridge, Jonty is about to find
:36:17. > :36:22.out whether his Judy Garland picture is the real deal. The moment of
:36:23. > :36:28.truth! Now, just looking at the back, it is good news. This is a
:36:29. > :36:34.photograph, not a facsimile. There she is in all her glory. Looking at
:36:35. > :36:40.her, she is a photograph. You can tell by the photographic paper. You
:36:41. > :36:46.know what it feels like. It is rather greasy. A facsimile is just a
:36:47. > :36:50.photocopy, so something that can be completely mass-produced. As you
:36:51. > :36:53.know, from a photocopier, and completely worthless. This is a
:36:54. > :37:01.photograph, a proper image. This has value. Yes, great news for Jonty,
:37:02. > :37:05.and buoyed by his discovery, he hotfoot sit straight to an autograph
:37:06. > :37:10.shop in London, where he has arranged to meet the manager, Anya.
:37:11. > :37:16.It is not signed but think this is a great picture of Judy Garland. What
:37:17. > :37:25.do you think? It is a stunning, stunning photograph. I am looking
:37:26. > :37:37.for ?80 for that. Just looking at that edge... The edge gives it
:37:38. > :37:42.character. May be ?60? 65? OK. Thank you very much. She is all yours. A
:37:43. > :37:51.prophet like that would have anybody clicking their heels with joy. What
:37:52. > :37:52.a fabulous item! I can't wait to get home and celebrate. There's no place
:37:53. > :38:10.like home! Jonty may be all sold up and off to
:38:11. > :38:17.see the wizard but his rival will not be made a munchkin. Paul is
:38:18. > :38:22.homing in on his next deal. It is time to try to sell this wonderful
:38:23. > :38:27.telescope. I'd got it for ?30 and I am bringing it to a binocular and
:38:28. > :38:35.telescope dealer in Lancaster. How are you? Great to see you. What have
:38:36. > :38:41.you got? This is a night and day scope. I was hoping it will be
:38:42. > :38:52.something you are interested in. The only made scopes from about 1852 Bob
:38:53. > :39:01.1830. It would have been a naval scope originally. And then adapted.
:39:02. > :39:11.And that is why it got the night and day. So it would have been used
:39:12. > :39:20.for... Well, you are looking to be able to see through it and it isn't
:39:21. > :39:24.good. I would be happy with ?40. ?50 sounds better. In the middle. I'd
:39:25. > :39:34.tell you what, you can have it for ?45. Thank you very much. That ?15
:39:35. > :39:38.profit just goes to show selling is a serious business. Jonty maybe
:39:39. > :39:46.locking around in London dressed up as Dorothy, but Paul does everything
:39:47. > :39:52.with focus and poise. Maybe not. Don't panic! Only me! What do you
:39:53. > :39:55.think of the outfit? Isn't it fantastic! Time now to sell this
:39:56. > :40:01.wonderful record player and I've brought it to the last remaining
:40:02. > :40:09.record shop in Wigan. Hopefully this outfit will mean I'll leave with a
:40:10. > :40:16.profit. Interesting tactic. Let's see if it works. Elvis Presley! Yes!
:40:17. > :40:21.I was all Shook up this morning. Have you seen one of these before? I
:40:22. > :40:29.didn't recognise the name but I was aware that there were Dan sets in
:40:30. > :40:35.this country and this is French. So it is a version of that. It does
:40:36. > :40:39.produce a sound but the strange thing is is that the Speaker is
:40:40. > :40:46.invalid. Is it the sort of thing you think you could find a customer for?
:40:47. > :40:50.It would sit in the window and people would certainly stop. They
:40:51. > :40:57.would go and ask me about it, no doubt about it. If I was to ask
:40:58. > :41:08.you, say, ?35, how does that sound? Yes, I could live with ?35. Shall we
:41:09. > :41:13.shake on that? Yes! That is Paul all sold up. So, nothing more our
:41:14. > :41:18.dealers can do, but before we find out who is the winner, let's remind
:41:19. > :41:37.ourselves of what they have spent. Paul and Jonty started out with ?250
:41:38. > :41:42.of their own. Paul spent ?133. Jonty only spent ?84 but the only thing
:41:43. > :41:48.that matters now is who has made the most profit. All of today's money
:41:49. > :41:54.will go to our dealers' chosen charities. So, let's find out who is
:41:55. > :41:59.our Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is champion. How you? How was the
:42:00. > :42:05.car-boot sale? I really enjoyed it. The variety is endless and you can
:42:06. > :42:11.buy literally anything. The best buy has to be that set of bowls. What
:42:12. > :42:18.about you? Do you remember that tartan book I've bought? I've found
:42:19. > :42:23.the perfect buyer who dressed me in the perfect attire. I will say no
:42:24. > :42:34.more! Shall we see? Are you happy with what you bought? Let's see. I
:42:35. > :42:39.am pleased. What about you? Delighted! I am going to buy you an
:42:40. > :42:46.ice cream to remind us. It was freezing! Victory for Jonty and he
:42:47. > :42:50.is more than a bit surprised. Now, that was a really tough challenge.
:42:51. > :42:55.I'm really pleased with the result at the end of the day. It was such a
:42:56. > :43:00.cold day and I'd tripped up on my truncheon as well, so, yes, I am
:43:01. > :43:04.relieved. I was delighted with what I've bought at the car-boot sale.
:43:05. > :43:10.I've made a firm profit on a resume of sold and I've learned a bit about
:43:11. > :43:17.bowls in the process. Fantastic! Tomorrow, Paul has a chance to
:43:18. > :43:19.avenge his loss when our experts go up against the gavel at an auction
:43:20. > :43:25.in Dorset.
