0:01:19 > 0:01:22CROWD APPLAUDS

0:01:22 > 0:01:25'This is Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.'

0:01:38 > 0:01:42'Today, we're in Lincoln, where this monumental melee

0:01:42 > 0:01:46'pits two of the heavyweights of the antiques world against each other

0:01:46 > 0:01:49'in a no-holds-barred buying bonanza.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51'As the sun rises, a battle is brewing.

0:01:51 > 0:01:56'There's no place for egos here, as profit is the biggest prize

0:01:56 > 0:01:58'and they will both have to come out swinging

0:01:58 > 0:02:02'to bring home the largest purse and be crowned champion

0:02:02 > 0:02:04'of the antiques fair fisticuffs.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09'First up, hoping for a hero's welcome is a man returning to a fair

0:02:09 > 0:02:13'where he learned his trade all those years ago.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16'Making his much-anticipated comeback to the place

0:02:16 > 0:02:19'that sculpted him into the Adonis of antiques he is today, it's...'

0:02:22 > 0:02:25Jonty, why the long face? LAUGHS

0:02:25 > 0:02:29'And hoping to land a knockout blow and bring home the championship belt

0:02:29 > 0:02:32'his opponent is no amateur himself.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35'He's traded blows with the best of them and come out on top.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38'He's the hat-wearing antiques sniper, it's...'

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Mr Hayes, I've got your ground covered.

0:02:44 > 0:02:51'This slug-fest takes place at the Lincolnshire Antiques and Home Show, where there's over 2,000 stalls.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54'Our competitors will be battling the elements.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58'They'll need to give their all if they want to claim victory.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01'They've each got ?750 of their own money to spend

0:03:01 > 0:03:04'and all the profit goes to their chosen charities.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07'So, let's have a clean fight, Jonty Hearnden and Paul Hayes.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11'It's time to put your money where your mouth is.'

0:03:11 > 0:03:15Good morning, Jonty. Welcome to the Lincolnshire Antiques and Home Show.

0:03:15 > 0:03:20You don't need to welcome me. I've stood this market. I slept in the van here!

0:03:20 > 0:03:22So, we've got ?750 to spend.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26Any strategy? I don't know. I have a confession.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28I've not been here before.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32I need to get my bearings. I need to see what's what.

0:03:32 > 0:03:36I understand there's an indoor and an outdoor market. There is.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41I'll stick with the outdoor and bring round cups of tea, cos there's lots of frozen faces.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44May the best man win. Good luck. See you later.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48'They've touched gloves and are ready to bob and weave their way

0:03:48 > 0:03:51'through this clash of the collectables.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55'Although Paul is the seasoned veteran, the hitman has a few moves of his own.'

0:03:55 > 0:04:00Paul thinks he's got the edge on me because he's familiar with the territory.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03But there are over 2,000 stallholders here,

0:04:03 > 0:04:08which means there are millions of objects that have never seen the light of day in the marketplace.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11So, has he got the edge on me? I don't think so.

0:04:11 > 0:04:16'That sounds like fighting talk, but don't write off the man from Morecambe,

0:04:16 > 0:04:19'as his insider's knowledge has him brimming with confidence.'

0:04:19 > 0:04:23Jonty said this is his first time here, but it's not MY first time.

0:04:23 > 0:04:28I used to sleep in the van and try and take some money over a couple of days.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31It's freezing sometimes. These guys work really hard.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33I think I owe it to the guys outside

0:04:33 > 0:04:36for me to spend my money in these outside pitches.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40'As they both come flying out of their corners, desperate to snag the opening buy,

0:04:40 > 0:04:45'it's Jonty who is the first to draw blood in this antiques altercation.

0:04:45 > 0:04:50'Yes, this rebel of relics refuses to play by anyone's rules.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52'Not even his own.'

0:04:52 > 0:04:54I've just broken all of my rules.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57I have bought a reproduction. Ow!

0:04:57 > 0:05:01The reason why I wanted to buy this particular object

0:05:01 > 0:05:04was because it's just so much fun!

0:05:04 > 0:05:06You've got a handle at the end

0:05:06 > 0:05:08and it gently tips your wine,

0:05:08 > 0:05:10or decants your wine, essentially.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14There's even - I've not seen this before - a little drip tray.

0:05:14 > 0:05:19It looks like a little candleholder, there to get those final drips.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23The reason why you need to decant wine at a very slow pace

0:05:23 > 0:05:28is because all the sediment from a lot of old wine falls to the bottom,

0:05:28 > 0:05:31which means that if you tip it out very slowly,

0:05:31 > 0:05:34the sediment will remain at the bottom of your bottle.

0:05:34 > 0:05:39This is a French contraption. It's brass. It's got an oak base.

0:05:39 > 0:05:42I asked the price. He started off at ?40.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45I offered him 30. Done deal.

0:05:45 > 0:05:49I'm going to double my money. Paul Hayes, are you watching?

0:05:49 > 0:05:53'Paul's far too busy to be watching what you're up to, Jonty.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56'He has his eyes focused firmly on the prize.

0:05:56 > 0:06:00'It's not long before he spots an item that gets his engine running.'

0:06:00 > 0:06:03This is one of the favourite pastimes.

0:06:03 > 0:06:04It's an old-gauge steam engine.

0:06:04 > 0:06:09A lot of you will recognise these from your Hornbys and your Tri-angs,

0:06:09 > 0:06:13but this is actually a working steam, which is quite unusual.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15These tend to be quite rare items,

0:06:15 > 0:06:18so there will be a method of using this.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20It's nice to have its truck with it.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24This one here, sir. Do you know much about it?

0:06:24 > 0:06:27It's a Bowman. They made model steam engines.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30They work and they're reliable and simple.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34Is this 1930s, maybe? Perhaps so. Perhaps a little bit earlier.

0:06:34 > 0:06:39What would be your best price on that? ?150. 150. Do you know what?

0:06:39 > 0:06:42I've never actually owned a genuine steam.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45I've only had electric versions. Could you ease it a little bit?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47You've got 160 on it.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52145, then. 145.

0:06:52 > 0:06:53145.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58OK. I think I'll have that. Thank you very much.

0:06:58 > 0:07:03'So it's full steam ahead for Paul as he spends big on the toy train.

0:07:03 > 0:07:08'We'll have to wait and see if it will return a profit, but Paul is pleased with his purchase.'

0:07:08 > 0:07:12I was chatting to the stallholder. The water goes through this top.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14In the bottom is methylated spirits.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18A series of burners forces the steam that turns the engines.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20A marvellous invention.

0:07:20 > 0:07:24One thing I've realised is that LNER is the London North Eastern Railway

0:07:24 > 0:07:28and 4472 was the Flying Scotsman.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31I've got a complete working model of the Flying Scotsman.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35'So, Paul's on the right track, as he steams through his first buy.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39'While he's playing with his new toy, Jonty becomes transfixed

0:07:39 > 0:07:42'by a beautiful face staring back at him.'

0:07:42 > 0:07:46That's an interesting mirror, sir. Is that yours? Yeah.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50It's a 1960s aluminium porthole.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53I've polished it myself and had this bevel-edged mirror cut.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56It's a really decorative piece, nice and lightweight as well,

0:07:56 > 0:08:00so they can be fixed to the wall. You're asking 195. Yeah.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03I'm interested. Will you do 150?

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Go on, then, we'll do 160. 150, sorry!

0:08:05 > 0:08:11LAUGHING: You got me there! 150 it is. Brilliant. Thanks very much.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14'Yes, well spotted, Jonty. Every pound counts in this game.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17'He can't spend too long reflecting on his latest acquisition

0:08:17 > 0:08:20'because Paul is after a snappy buy, as he focuses in

0:08:20 > 0:08:23'on an old-fashioned camera.'

0:08:23 > 0:08:26It's in great condition. Have you had it working?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28It's in working order. I haven't used it.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31What's your absolute best on that? I do like it.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33I'll do it for 150. 150.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35You can't see a oner?

0:08:35 > 0:08:38No, I can't. PAUL LAUGHS

0:08:38 > 0:08:41You're like me. That's the way it goes. I'll do 125.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43125.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45All right, I'll have that.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Come on, Jonty - lights, camera, action!

0:08:49 > 0:08:51They say to buy quality and I've done that.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55I've bought what is one of the best manufacturers of cameras ever.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58This is a Rolleiflex. It dates from the 1950s.

0:08:58 > 0:09:02It's a twin-lens 35 millimetre camera.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06In the right hands, these can take those wonderful exotic shots.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Think of Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn,

0:09:09 > 0:09:13those beautiful black and white pictures of glamour and style.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16I might get one done of meself, what do you think?

0:09:16 > 0:09:20'Pretty as a picture, as always, Paul.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24'Our antiques pin-up is on a hot streak and in the mood to take a gamble.'

0:09:24 > 0:09:28I've spotted this and it reminds me of my childhood.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31I spent a lot of time around the slot machine arcades.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34I used to work on the fairgrounds in Morecambe.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38It's a really interesting thing to see. It's a bit of memorabilia.

0:09:38 > 0:09:41These one-arm bandits are popular. It's about 1970.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45Let's see if I can buy it first. Excuse me, madam.

0:09:45 > 0:09:49Is this your slot machine? Yeah. We don't know whether it works? No.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53It's a good bit of kit, isn't it? Got a nice look to it.

0:09:53 > 0:09:57It's got a great look, very '70s, but it could be just an empty box.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00What would be your best price on it?

0:10:00 > 0:10:05Well, I'm asking 125, but I'd take a oner on it. Take a oner.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09I'm thinking that's what I could maybe sell it for. Right.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12You couldn't see 75 quid? I don't know what's in there. 85.

0:10:12 > 0:10:16Shall we say 85 quid, then? Yeah. 85 quid. Thank you very much.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19'Seems Paul's luck IS in.'

0:10:19 > 0:10:23I took a complete gamble on this. Do you get it? Haha.

0:10:23 > 0:10:25It's a 1970s one-armed bandit.

0:10:25 > 0:10:30We get the term from the fact that it takes all your money and it's only got one arm.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33It like that it's a skier, very retro, very chic.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36All being well, we could see this up and running.

0:10:36 > 0:10:38It needs a bit of restoration.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41I am sure that somebody in Morecambe wants to buy one of these

0:10:41 > 0:10:43as a memory of times gone by.

0:10:43 > 0:10:47'So, Paul's hoping to hit the jackpot with his slot machine.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50'Across the fair, Jonty also thinks he's on to a winner,

0:10:50 > 0:10:53'as he's picked up a classic Hitman buy.'

0:10:53 > 0:10:56You know me, I have to buy chairs.

0:10:56 > 0:11:01This is a really good quality Victorian nursing chair.

0:11:01 > 0:11:06We've got this lovely barrel back, button back,

0:11:06 > 0:11:09but the arms are slightly flared, really nice detail.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12I also love the serpentine front of the seat.

0:11:12 > 0:11:15This seat should be really nice and firm.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17That is perfect.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19That is tight as a drum.

0:11:19 > 0:11:24Really nice quality walnut legs with original brass casters.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26That's what I like to see.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28The fabric is really quite worn.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32I would say that this material is probably 1950s, 1960s.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34It's perfectly fine to replace that.

0:11:34 > 0:11:39I love to see modern fabrics on a Victorian chair.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41?120 purchase.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45My choice is to sell it as it is on to the trade,

0:11:45 > 0:11:49or do I re-cover it to maximise my potential?

0:11:49 > 0:11:52I've got a lot of options here.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55The question is, which one am I going to choose?

0:11:55 > 0:11:59'Mm, that IS a conundrum, Jonty, but you'll have to sit on it for now

0:11:59 > 0:12:04'as this battle is hitting boiling point and you don't want to let Paul sail away to victory.'

0:12:04 > 0:12:07I think I've just bought something very rare indeed.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11This is an officer's bicorn hat from the Royal British Navy.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13This would have belonged to the Captain.

0:12:13 > 0:12:19It could have been used during Napoleonic times, the Battle of Trafalgar, who knows?

0:12:19 > 0:12:21It has that romance with it.

0:12:21 > 0:12:26These come in a tin box the same shape, but unfortunately didn't have the tin.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28It's not in the best of condition.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32In the bottom here is the name of the maker, Gieves Ltd.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34It says "Maker to His Majesty, the King".

0:12:34 > 0:12:37That will be King George III.

0:12:37 > 0:12:42We're looking at something around the year 1800. It cost me ?90.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45I think it's a bargain for a bit of British naval history.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48It's seen a bit of action, it's a bit worn,

0:12:48 > 0:12:51but it could have saved many a life, this ship.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54Scrub the decks, please! All hands on deck!

0:12:54 > 0:13:00# He's an Englishman! #

0:13:00 > 0:13:03'So patriotic it almost brings a tear to your eye!

0:13:03 > 0:13:07'But that'll have to wait, as it's time to drop anchor

0:13:07 > 0:13:09'and find out who's still stuck in port

0:13:09 > 0:13:12'and who's having a good old "mari-time" of it.

0:13:12 > 0:13:17'Jonty and Paul each had ?750 of their own cash to spend.

0:13:17 > 0:13:21'Paul is slightly ahead. He's made four deals and spent...

0:13:25 > 0:13:29'Jonty has only bought three items at this point, spending...

0:13:34 > 0:13:37'So, our experts are back out of their corners

0:13:37 > 0:13:41'as the bell goes for round two of this buying brawl.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45'Jonty has hatched a cunning plan on how to regain the advantage.'

0:13:45 > 0:13:48I've decided to put my hat on

0:13:48 > 0:13:52so I can go round the market in disguise.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54It's more like a hunter's hat, don't you think?

0:13:54 > 0:13:58'Look out! Jonty's on the prowl and he means business.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01'He's picked up the scent of a bargain

0:14:01 > 0:14:05'and heads straight to a chap with a similar taste in hairy headgear.'

0:14:05 > 0:14:09What's the deal on your scent bottle? ?30.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11What sort of age has it got,

0:14:11 > 0:14:14cos it doesn't look particularly old?

0:14:15 > 0:14:18I think it's, er... pertaining to the 1930s.

0:14:18 > 0:14:23But... Yeah. ..one doesn't quite know.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26Tell me your best on it. What's the death? I'll do it for ?25.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29I'll pay you 20. Yeah, go on. 20 quid.

0:14:29 > 0:14:3120 quid. You happy? Yeah.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35OK. I'm going to smell sweeter than Paul Hayes.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38'Oh, yes. That fragrant eau de Hearnden.

0:14:39 > 0:14:44CHEESY FAKE AMERICAN ACCENT 'Desire! Allure!

0:14:44 > 0:14:47'Antiques! The great...

0:14:50 > 0:14:51'Mmm!

0:14:51 > 0:14:55'Luckily, we won't be seeing that on the shelves just yet.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57'While the perfume world takes a sigh of relief,

0:14:57 > 0:15:00'Jonty has time to asses his purchase.'

0:15:00 > 0:15:05I'm a big fan of these wonderfully shaped perfume bottles.

0:15:05 > 0:15:08It has a sense of being a French Art Deco scent bottle,

0:15:08 > 0:15:10but it's not 1930s.

0:15:10 > 0:15:13It's just too small, too angular.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16The under side is in very good condition,

0:15:16 > 0:15:21which is probably another indicator that it's not 80 years old.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24What I do like about it is its style.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28At ?20, what a perfect gift to give to somebody.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31'So, Jonty can smell success in the air,

0:15:31 > 0:15:34'but he must be wary, as he's on Paul's turf here.

0:15:34 > 0:15:38'In this part of the country, he is the don, a man of the people,

0:15:38 > 0:15:42'adored by all, he gets mobbed everywhere he goes.'

0:15:42 > 0:15:44# I am the one and only... #

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Do you want a picture together? Yes, please.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51It's Kylie and Jason, the comeback tour!

0:15:51 > 0:15:53'Come on, Paul, back to the job at hand.

0:15:53 > 0:15:59'Both our dealers need to get their skates on, as it's getting late and they still have items to buy.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02'At least Jonty's still focused on the task in hand.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04'He's spotted a sporran.'

0:16:04 > 0:16:06?22.50, I'll take it.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08Take the man's money.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Thank you.

0:16:10 > 0:16:14As we can see, this is a "sporran-taneous" purchase!

0:16:14 > 0:16:16People are packing up. I saw it on a table.

0:16:16 > 0:16:20I spotted it and I thought, "Now, there's a bit of quality."

0:16:20 > 0:16:22There's no silver hallmarks on this.

0:16:22 > 0:16:25Older sporrans would be silver-mounted.

0:16:25 > 0:16:29But all the detail is there. I love the Celtic design.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33It's got Made In Scotland not only on the side, but on the reverse.

0:16:33 > 0:16:35It's leather on the exterior.

0:16:35 > 0:16:40I also think that everything about it is in really good condition.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44As a consequence, I know that I should be able to make a profit

0:16:44 > 0:16:47on my ?22.50 purchase.

0:16:47 > 0:16:51'And with his sporran, Jonty leaps into a 5-4 lead.

0:16:51 > 0:16:54'You can't keep a good man down and, before you know it,

0:16:54 > 0:16:57'Paul is back wheeling and dealing.'

0:16:57 > 0:17:01I must admit, I've never seen a unicycle before, sir.

0:17:01 > 0:17:03How much is it? ?30.

0:17:03 > 0:17:08It can't be 20 quid and I'll take it with me? No, it's 30. Dead on 30?

0:17:08 > 0:17:14For a bit of fun, the sort of thing someone would buy as a novelty,

0:17:14 > 0:17:18I'm going to take that at 30 quid. Thank you. Cheers.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22'On Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is, even the most skilled expert

0:17:22 > 0:17:26'has the occasional accident - look away now if you're squeamish.'

0:17:26 > 0:17:30There comes a point in a man's life when he hits around 40 years old

0:17:30 > 0:17:33and he wants to buy himself a new set of wheels.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36I've bought myself...

0:17:36 > 0:17:38Just whacked myself in the... HOOTER

0:17:38 > 0:17:42'Oh! That looks seriously painful. Care to try that again, Paul?'

0:17:42 > 0:17:46You only ever see these with street performers or circus people.

0:17:46 > 0:17:50I like it, it's a quirky item. They must cost a fortune to buy.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53I've never seen one for sale before so I bought it, ?30.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56Where I'm going to sell it, I don't know,

0:17:56 > 0:18:00but it's a long way to Morecambe on this thing. Taxi!

0:18:00 > 0:18:04'Careful. While Paul hobbles off to find some more bargains,

0:18:04 > 0:18:07'Jonty's spotted something he hopes will get him in the buying rhythm.'

0:18:07 > 0:18:14I really quite like the price of this little obelisk-looking object.

0:18:14 > 0:18:18If we undo the top, it's what I hoped it was going to be.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20It's a little metronome inside.

0:18:20 > 0:18:26A metronome is a timepiece usually used for the musical industries.

0:18:26 > 0:18:31You have a weight here that goes up and down the scale,

0:18:31 > 0:18:34which changes the time, changes the pace.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37At ?45, to me, that looks like a real bargain.

0:18:38 > 0:18:42Excuse me, sir. This is your metronome, is it? Yes.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Can you tell me a bit more about it?

0:18:44 > 0:18:49One thing that's wrong with it is that it's missing its base. A-ha.

0:18:49 > 0:18:53Well, we can see the workings. What's your best on it?

0:18:53 > 0:18:58Well, 40, really. 40? Yeah, yeah. You can't do any more than that?

0:18:58 > 0:19:03I've got to trade with it, make a profit. Have you? I've got to beat Paul Hayes. Oh, I see.

0:19:03 > 0:19:0535 will be the very best.

0:19:05 > 0:19:0935? Yeah, very best. I'm going to take it.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12That's perfect. Thank you very much indeed.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15'Jonty's hoping that buy will be music to his ears, but wait,

0:19:15 > 0:19:18'he's not putting his wallet away just yet.'

0:19:18 > 0:19:20As I was paying for the metronome,

0:19:20 > 0:19:23I saw out the corner of my eye this glass vase.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27It had a price tag of ?65 and I thought, "That's reasonable."

0:19:27 > 0:19:31But I've managed to negotiate this price down to ?40.

0:19:31 > 0:19:36Now, it's a Lalique-looking vase because it's frosted.

0:19:36 > 0:19:42It's also moulded. You can tell that by the lines on the side here.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44The quality is really quite superb.

0:19:44 > 0:19:49I think for ?40, it just feels so cheap and so reasonable.

0:19:49 > 0:19:53'And with his vase in the bag, Jonty decides he's all bought up.

0:19:53 > 0:19:57'Even though the stalls are being packed away, Paul is not calling time yet.'

0:19:57 > 0:19:59I love good quality watches.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03I see you've got some very posh wrist watches here, the Rolexes.

0:20:03 > 0:20:07Pocket watches I like. What do we know about this one?

0:20:07 > 0:20:10I believe it's Irish, mid 19th century.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14And how much is it? 65. 65 quid. All right.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16You can't do me ?50? No, I'll do 60.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19All right. Thank you very much.

0:20:19 > 0:20:25I must admit, I bought one of the most under-rated items there are in the antique markets.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28That's a pocket watch. It's no ordinary pocket watch.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31This dates from the 19th century - 1855, 1856.

0:20:31 > 0:20:35It's a solid silver case and what I love about it, it's Irish silver.

0:20:35 > 0:20:40Irish silver is so rare. More items were made in England and Scotland.

0:20:40 > 0:20:43The Irish didn't make so many at this time.

0:20:43 > 0:20:44You've got a good set of hallmarks.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48We're looking for Hibernia, which is the lady to the lefthand side,

0:20:48 > 0:20:52the symbol for Irish silver, then the harp, the symbol for Dublin.

0:20:52 > 0:20:56Inside, what I love about these watches, is how beautiful they are.

0:20:56 > 0:21:00It says here, "John Donegan, Dublin."

0:21:00 > 0:21:02That's a great collector's item.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05It makes it a bit different when you come to sell it.

0:21:05 > 0:21:09For ?60, it's a bargain. Must have been the right TIME to buy it!

0:21:09 > 0:21:13'Nice one, Paul. Managing to find TIME to squeeze in one more joke.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16'With that, our experts are done with their buying.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19'Let's see what they've spent today.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23'Jonty and Paul both started today with ?750 of their own money.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27'Paul has made six deals and spent a total of...

0:21:28 > 0:21:31'Jonty has made one more purchase, buying seven items,

0:21:31 > 0:21:33'but ended up spending less...

0:21:36 > 0:21:40'But this is all about who's going to make the biggest profit.

0:21:40 > 0:21:43'With the money all totted up and the buying drawn to a close,

0:21:43 > 0:21:47'it's time for our experts to take stock of each other's nick-nacks.'

0:21:47 > 0:21:51How have you found it? Good. What have you got here? What's this?

0:21:51 > 0:21:54I bought a complete eclectic mix.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57Something that dates from the 18th century

0:21:57 > 0:21:59right up to something modern, retro and cheeky.

0:21:59 > 0:22:05I like that. Do you know any skiers? What did you pay for that? ?85.

0:22:05 > 0:22:08And you bought something wine-related, Jonty. Yeah.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12I bought myself an empty bottle. I like your scent bottle.

0:22:12 > 0:22:15Is that for your aftershave? It is quite pungent.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19Was that a good buy? It's the smell of success.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Good luck, Jonty. Good luck to you.

0:22:24 > 0:22:29'So, with the buying over, the new objective is to sell big.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32'Our two agents of the antiques fair have accepted their mission

0:22:32 > 0:22:35'as they head home to prepare for profit.

0:22:35 > 0:22:39'In Morecambe, at Hayes HQ, Paul is perusing his purchases.'

0:22:39 > 0:22:43I really did get on my bike at the antique fair.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45It's only got one wheel.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47Obviously, it's a unicycle - I do know that.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49I've got a slot machine here.

0:22:49 > 0:22:55I've found out that part of the enjoyment is for the buyer is to restore it.

0:22:55 > 0:23:01I've got somebody in mind for that. The train is by the Bowman company.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03We also have a bicorn hat.

0:23:03 > 0:23:08This is obviously to do with the British Navy from the 18th century.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12This pocket watch, I've traced the manufacturer to John Donegan.

0:23:12 > 0:23:16He was based in Dame Street, Dublin.

0:23:16 > 0:23:19The camera, that's unusual.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21This is a Rolleiflex, very interesting camera.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25I found a collector. Hopefully, they can tell me more about that.

0:23:25 > 0:23:28'So, Paul's unearthed some real treasures,

0:23:28 > 0:23:32'but in Oxfordshire, Jonty's quietly confident about his own stash.'

0:23:32 > 0:23:35I came away with some real gems.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38I'm genuinely pleased with everything that I purchased.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41The mirror is a wonderful decorative object.

0:23:41 > 0:23:45The chair I KNOW I can always sell. That's a dead cert.

0:23:45 > 0:23:50I need to find a buyer for my vase. Sadly, it's not Rene Lalique!

0:23:50 > 0:23:53My wine pourer is fascinating. It's not antique.

0:23:53 > 0:23:58I'm hoping somebody's going to have a snip. My sporran is great fun!

0:23:58 > 0:24:02My metronome. A mate of mine's into classical music in a big way.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Will he be interested? Not sure. And my perfume bottle.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09It's so decorative, somebody's going to snap it up.

0:24:09 > 0:24:14All in all, a wonderful, wonderful collection. I'm ready to do battle.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18'So, let combat commence.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21'Our two master trading tacticians hit the phones

0:24:21 > 0:24:23'and plot their next point of attack.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27'No deal will be done until it's sealed with a handshake.

0:24:27 > 0:24:31'Paul is first off the mark, hoping for a snappy trade

0:24:31 > 0:24:34'as he makes a trip across the country to east Yorkshire,

0:24:34 > 0:24:37'where he's set up a meeting with a camera dealer.'

0:24:37 > 0:24:39Lights, camera, action.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43It's time to try and sell this beautiful Rolleiflex camera.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46It's an exquisite piece, a real bit of engineering.

0:24:46 > 0:24:49It's taken me to a collector/dealer of these cameras.

0:24:49 > 0:24:52I'm dying to find out what this serial number means,

0:24:52 > 0:24:56whether it works and, hopefully, it's something he wants to buy.

0:24:56 > 0:24:59What have I bought, Simon? Have a good look at it.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02It's a Rolleiflex T. T.

0:25:02 > 0:25:03Dates from the early 1960s.

0:25:03 > 0:25:07This one is a military version ordered by the British Army.

0:25:07 > 0:25:12The Ministry of Defence ordered about 5,000 of these cameras. Ah!

0:25:12 > 0:25:14They had department numbers. This is an Army one.

0:25:14 > 0:25:18Do you think this one will work? We can test it for you.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22So how do you get in this? We open the back, have a look in.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24The back of the lens looks nice and clean.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27There's no film in this but it will still fire.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29CAMERA WHIRRS She's a runner!

0:25:29 > 0:25:33It stands me ?125. Some can go for a lot more money.

0:25:33 > 0:25:38Certainly. The top end of the market Rollies, the 2.8f, 3.5f,

0:25:38 > 0:25:41they are fetching very strong money.

0:25:41 > 0:25:45I think you can make a small profit. I'd be willing to offer 150 for it.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49Well, hopefully, we can take some pictures with it. Yeah.

0:25:49 > 0:25:55I'll load it with film. You can have a play. We'll shake on that, shall we? Let's do that.

0:25:55 > 0:25:59'That's a cracking profit of ?25.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01'Come on, Paul. Say cheese.'

0:26:01 > 0:26:04# People take pictures of each other... #

0:26:04 > 0:26:08'Look at him, with his matinee idol good looks.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12'If antiques don't work out, you could try your hand at modelling.

0:26:12 > 0:26:13'Not.

0:26:13 > 0:26:18'While Paul's posing for pictures, who's that striding through the Highland fog?

0:26:18 > 0:26:21'Is it Jonty from the clan Hearnden?'

0:26:21 > 0:26:25Just had my porridge for breakfast and I can smell cooked haggis.

0:26:25 > 0:26:27I've come to the centre of...

0:26:29 > 0:26:32..England. I'm here, right in the centre of London

0:26:32 > 0:26:35to show my sporran to Stephen.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38He runs a business selling kilts and other attire.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42I paid just over ?20 for this. Can I make a profit?

0:26:42 > 0:26:45If I could double my money, I'd be well pleased.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49They were originally a bag that men carried for things.

0:26:49 > 0:26:53Mainly, it would have a bit of lunch in.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57It's a man bag as well as something to carry your lunch around? Exactly.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00Would you like to have a look at my sporran? May I?

0:27:00 > 0:27:03I think it's in good condition. It's made in Edinburgh.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05It's all leather on the inside.

0:27:05 > 0:27:09It's interesting. I like the detail in the cantle at the top.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12The thing is, what would it cost? What would it cost?

0:27:12 > 0:27:16To you, ?100. How do you feel about ?80?

0:27:16 > 0:27:1980 quid? Go on, then. It's all yours.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23Is that all right? Perfect. Marvellous. Very happy with that.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26'Jonty's more than doubled his money

0:27:26 > 0:27:30'and walks away with a profit of ?57.50.

0:27:30 > 0:27:35'But his rival, Paul, isn't going to let him steam too far ahead.

0:27:35 > 0:27:38'He's been doing his research and has found the perfect home

0:27:38 > 0:27:41'for the toy train that he paid ?145 for.

0:27:41 > 0:27:46'He's headed to Shropshire to meet John, a toy train collector.'

0:27:46 > 0:27:50I've sent you an image of this. It's something I've never seen before.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53I've handled lots and lots of clockwork trains.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56It's a genuine steam train. That's right.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59It's by a firm called Bowman.

0:27:59 > 0:28:03It's number 4472, LNER. That's right, yes.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06That's the Flying Scotsman. Well, yes, they represent that.

0:28:06 > 0:28:11Bowman were in the 1920s, 1930s, in Dereham in Norfolk.

0:28:11 > 0:28:15They were founded by a gentleman called Geoffrey Bowman Jenkins.

0:28:15 > 0:28:20This is well over 80 years old. That's fantastic. It cost me ?145.

0:28:20 > 0:28:23Bearing in mind the condition of it, you've done reasonably well.

0:28:23 > 0:28:27If I was to ask you 200 for it, would that be a reasonable price?

0:28:27 > 0:28:29It may be a bit on the high side.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32I was thinking of something like 180.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35We'll shake on that, then. 180. Yeah? All right.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38Thank you so much. That's very nice of you. One proviso.

0:28:38 > 0:28:43I know you've got one that works. Can I see one working? You can, yes.

0:28:44 > 0:28:49I love the way you can actually see the fire.

0:28:49 > 0:28:51It's brilliant!

0:28:51 > 0:28:54'Paul's on track with a profit of ?35,

0:28:54 > 0:28:57'but his rival's nipping at his heels.

0:28:57 > 0:29:00'In the riverside town of Henley-on-Thames,

0:29:00 > 0:29:05'Jonty's hoping he's found the perfect buyer for his ?150 porthole mirror.'

0:29:05 > 0:29:10The dealer I'm showing it to told me that anything nautical sells.

0:29:10 > 0:29:14So I'm hoping...I might be in for a big, big profit.

0:29:14 > 0:29:18Simon, how are you? Very well, Jonty. Good to see you again.

0:29:18 > 0:29:21Now, look what I've brought you.

0:29:21 > 0:29:25Wow! That's a beauty, isn't it? It really does come from a ship.

0:29:25 > 0:29:29Because it's aluminium, it's a ship that's 20th century.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33We've got this bevelled mirror inside to give a practical use.

0:29:33 > 0:29:38Bags of character. Proper salvage piece that just works so well.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41What's your first impressions? I think it's nice, Jonty.

0:29:41 > 0:29:45We're in Henley-on-Thames. This is a very nautical town.

0:29:45 > 0:29:49There's certainly a lot of interest in this sort of thing.

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Price? 375 to you?

0:29:51 > 0:29:54I'd struggle to find somebody to pay that to me!

0:29:54 > 0:29:57I'd give you 200 for it now, Jonty.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00The death would be 250. Would it? Yeah.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02What if we said 240? 240?

0:30:02 > 0:30:05How does that feel? That's fine. Happy with that.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Congratulations. Thank you, Jonty. Pleasure, as always.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11'Jonty makes a profit of ?90 on his porthole mirror.

0:30:11 > 0:30:15'Deals like that could see him sail away with this competition.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18'But not if Morecambe's master negotiator can help it.

0:30:18 > 0:30:24'Paul is an old hand at haggling and he's got the ideal potential buyer for his watch,

0:30:24 > 0:30:28'an old contact called Glen, who runs a jewellery shop in Clitheroe, Lancashire.'

0:30:28 > 0:30:30What I loved about this -

0:30:30 > 0:30:34forgive me, you've probably seen one before but I haven't -

0:30:34 > 0:30:38it's an Irish silver case and the maker is John Donegan.

0:30:38 > 0:30:42He was making watches in 1850 in Ireland.

0:30:42 > 0:30:47How desirable would that be? The Irish maker is interesting.

0:30:47 > 0:30:51The thing what makes it a lot better is being Irish silver.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53It's quite a nice dial on there. Looks perfect.

0:30:53 > 0:30:58It's missing the minute hand, as you probably already know yourself.

0:30:58 > 0:31:03This one's a fusee, meaning it's a chain-driven watch.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06They're good-quality watches, Irish watches, usually.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08If I was to ask you ?120?

0:31:08 > 0:31:11Yeah, I don't think it's out of the way.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15If we could shave a tenner off that, Paul, I'd be happy with that.

0:31:15 > 0:31:18Shall we shake on that? Yeah. That's lovely.

0:31:18 > 0:31:22'Paul is kissing the Blarney Stone, as he adds to his pot of gold

0:31:22 > 0:31:24'with a profit of ?50.'

0:31:24 > 0:31:26There we are, a bit of shared knowledge, there.

0:31:26 > 0:31:30I was delighted that Glen knew so much about that watch.

0:31:30 > 0:31:34He hasn't seen one for a long time. I've never seen one. You're always learning!

0:31:34 > 0:31:37There's a good profit there as well. Fantastic.

0:31:37 > 0:31:41'Paul's pretty happy with his profit and new-found knowledge,

0:31:41 > 0:31:44'but Jonty also knows a thing or two about making money.

0:31:44 > 0:31:48'He's found London's oldest French restaurant in Covent Garden.

0:31:48 > 0:31:52'For over 50 years, they've been serving up wine with French style.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56'But will current owners Alain and Valerie serve up a decent return

0:31:56 > 0:31:59'for Jonty on his ?30 wine decanter?'

0:31:59 > 0:32:02FRENCH ACCENT Now, I am your wine waiter.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Ah. Can I pour you a glass of wine? Oui. Yes.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09'Wise move, Jonty. A little vin rouge to smooth negotiations.'

0:32:09 > 0:32:14Have you seen a contraption like this before? Never.

0:32:14 > 0:32:16The whole point of my contraption

0:32:16 > 0:32:20is to allow the sediment to remain at the bottom of the bottle.

0:32:20 > 0:32:24It's a decanting machine. Here we go.

0:32:25 > 0:32:29Doesn't that look good? Fantastic. It's not particularly old.

0:32:29 > 0:32:32This was probably a copy of a 19th-century contraption.

0:32:32 > 0:32:36One reason I bought it was it's in such great condition.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40It's an absolute bargain! ?75 to you.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42I think that's a bargain.

0:32:42 > 0:32:4670 would be more of a bargain. Do you think?

0:32:46 > 0:32:49Well... I'm more agreeing with Valerie.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52OK. You decide. I think that's a fair price.

0:32:52 > 0:32:56It's a lovely piece and a great addition. You're happy with 75?

0:32:56 > 0:33:00Parfait! We ought to drink to that. LAUGHING: Definitely!

0:33:00 > 0:33:02Salut. Cheers.

0:33:02 > 0:33:08'Yes, bottoms up. Jonty makes a very fruity ?45 on his wine decanter.

0:33:09 > 0:33:13'With both Jonty and Paul steam-rolling through their selling,

0:33:13 > 0:33:15'it's time to find out who's firing on all cylinders

0:33:15 > 0:33:17'and who's run out of puff.

0:33:17 > 0:33:21'Paul has, so far, sold three items...

0:33:25 > 0:33:27'Jonty has also done three deals...

0:33:31 > 0:33:36'So, Jonty has his nose slightly out in front at the halfway point,

0:33:36 > 0:33:39'but there are a fair few furlongs to go in this race.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43'Paul thinks he may have hit the jackpot as he's found Stewart,

0:33:43 > 0:33:45'a slots repairer and collector

0:33:45 > 0:33:48'who's interested in his skiing fruit machine.

0:33:48 > 0:33:53'Including a gambling licence and electrical testing, Paul's spent ?113.60 on it.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57'As they take shelter from the rain in Stewart's workshop,

0:33:57 > 0:34:00'will his bet pay out?'

0:34:00 > 0:34:05I love this. Is this what they call a man cave, Stewart? Yeah.

0:34:05 > 0:34:09What can you tell me about this? Rough guess, it's made by Cops.

0:34:09 > 0:34:12About 1972.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15And it's a club machine. What does that mean? It went in clubs.

0:34:15 > 0:34:19Cos it's got ?5 jackpot. Right. A 5p play.

0:34:19 > 0:34:24The other ones used to have 50p jackpot. It's a higher jackpot? Yeah.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28Is it a thing you could make use of? What's the enjoyment for you?

0:34:28 > 0:34:31Basically, repairing it and getting it back how it should be.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34If I asked you ?120, how does that sound?

0:34:34 > 0:34:38As it is, not working? Well, it lights up!

0:34:38 > 0:34:40BOTH LAUGH

0:34:40 > 0:34:44Would it take much to get it going? Yeah. Probably would. Oh, right.

0:34:44 > 0:34:47Basically, a lot of man hours. Right, OK.

0:34:47 > 0:34:51Rough guess, probably about 40 quid.

0:34:51 > 0:34:53LAUGHING: Is that how you see it?

0:34:53 > 0:34:58'That's not what Paul was hoping to hear, but he's a fighter.'

0:34:58 > 0:35:03You can't get anywhere near that? It's no use to you as a project?

0:35:03 > 0:35:06As a project, I'll say I'll give you 50.

0:35:06 > 0:35:12You can't make it 70 quid? I'll lose a little bit and you'll have a great item to work on.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14I'll say 60 quid. PAUL LAUGHS

0:35:14 > 0:35:17I don't think I'll find another customer for it.

0:35:17 > 0:35:21Do you know what? I think I'll accept your ?60, Stewart.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23Thanks, Paul. Thank you.

0:35:23 > 0:35:28'Oh, dear. Paul takes a loss of ?53.60 on the slot machine.

0:35:28 > 0:35:31'Despite finding a good buyer, he couldn't squeeze a profit.

0:35:31 > 0:35:34'With time running out, he cut his losses.'

0:35:36 > 0:35:41Life's a learning curve. The antique business is a bit of a gamble.

0:35:41 > 0:35:46You buy things you haven't seen before, learn from them and move on.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49I've lost a few pounds, but onwards and upwards.

0:35:49 > 0:35:52'Yes, down but not out. That's the spirit, Paul.

0:35:52 > 0:35:56'But this set-back means he'll need to pull out all the stops

0:35:56 > 0:35:58'as Jonty powers on.

0:35:58 > 0:36:02'He sold his glass vase for a profit of ?5 to a collector in Henley.

0:36:02 > 0:36:06'And hitting his rhythm, he's straight off for another sale.'

0:36:06 > 0:36:10You find me in the Hampshire countryside with my metronome

0:36:10 > 0:36:13that cost me ?35 from the antiques fair.

0:36:13 > 0:36:16I've come to show it to a guy

0:36:16 > 0:36:21who used to belong to one of the biggest rock bands in history.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24I'm intrigued to find out a little bit more.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27Just tell me, what was that band?

0:36:27 > 0:36:29U2. No?

0:36:29 > 0:36:34Amazing! What happened? I was just a 13-year-old spotty schoolboy.

0:36:34 > 0:36:38They were the 15-year-old slightly cooler schoolboys.

0:36:38 > 0:36:41I got in the band because I had a good electric guitar.

0:36:41 > 0:36:44I left and started a band with my brother.

0:36:44 > 0:36:48We played with us and U2 on the bill for years and years

0:36:48 > 0:36:51until they took off and we didn't! JONTY LAUGHS

0:36:51 > 0:36:57Now, why are you interested in this? My children are learning the violin.

0:36:57 > 0:37:01We use a metronome on an app on the computer.

0:37:01 > 0:37:05The opportunity to have a real metronome is perfect. Brilliant.

0:37:05 > 0:37:09It's all in perfect working order and it's 100 years old.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12Ivan, it's a bargain price. ?85.

0:37:12 > 0:37:17What about 60? 60? Yeah. It could do with a bit of oiling.

0:37:17 > 0:37:20A bit more and it's yours. What about 70?

0:37:20 > 0:37:2270. All right.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Excellent.

0:37:24 > 0:37:29'That's a ?35 profit. Time to rock out, Jonty style.'

0:37:30 > 0:37:33THEY PLAY CHOPSTICKS

0:37:40 > 0:37:44'Ooh, he's just like Elton John(!) Without the talent.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47'While Jonty seems to be hitting all the highs,

0:37:47 > 0:37:49'Paul has struck another bum note

0:37:49 > 0:37:53'as he breaks even on the ?30 he spent on his unicycle.

0:37:53 > 0:37:57'There could be a change of fortune as Paul sets sail to Greenwich,

0:37:57 > 0:38:01'to meet his contact Robert, lover of all things maritime.'

0:38:01 > 0:38:04I've become quite attached to this wonderful bicorn hat.

0:38:04 > 0:38:10I got this out in Lincoln. It stands me at ?90 and it's brought me to Greenwich.

0:38:10 > 0:38:11What have you brought me?

0:38:11 > 0:38:15I thought what an eclectic mix of items that you have.

0:38:15 > 0:38:19With you being near Greenwich, I brought you along a bicorn hat.

0:38:19 > 0:38:24Have you ever seen one of these? I have! My father was in the navy.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28He had one and, unfortunately, after his death,

0:38:28 > 0:38:30my mother got rid of it.

0:38:30 > 0:38:34I've been looking for one of these for ages. Clever old you! Fantastic!

0:38:34 > 0:38:38What rank was he? He was a Surgeon Commander, a doctor.

0:38:38 > 0:38:43In 1956, naval officers ceased wearing them.

0:38:43 > 0:38:47That was the year I was born, so it's all rather apt.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50Fantastic. What a great connection that is!

0:38:50 > 0:38:53These have been worn since the 18th century. Who was this one made by?

0:38:53 > 0:38:58Gieves of London. They made most of the hats for the Admiralty.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01Is this something I could interest you in? I think so.

0:39:01 > 0:39:05Do you want to try it first? Yes. Why not?

0:39:05 > 0:39:08I think this is the moment. I'm not sure how to wear it.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10We do it this way. Look at that!

0:39:10 > 0:39:15If I was to ask you ?150, is that something you would love to own?

0:39:15 > 0:39:19I'd just fall on the floor! Well, how do you see it?

0:39:19 > 0:39:22Can we start at 100? And work our way up?

0:39:22 > 0:39:27Unfortunately, I can't. It stands me at quite a lot of money.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30If I said 130, how does that sound? How about 125?

0:39:30 > 0:39:33If the hat fits. Yes, 125. We've got a deal.

0:39:33 > 0:39:39'Paul makes a ?35 profit and he hoists his flag in celebration.'

0:39:40 > 0:39:43So it's all ship-shape and Greenwich fashion for me

0:39:43 > 0:39:46and rough seas for Jonty - fantastic!

0:39:46 > 0:39:50'Don't get too cocky, Paul, as Jonty is back in the selling seat

0:39:50 > 0:39:54'and has made a profit of ?105 on his Victorian chair.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57'And he's straight on the scent of another sale.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59'He's found Tracy, a local glass collector,

0:39:59 > 0:40:03'who he hopes will buy his ?20 perfume bottle.'

0:40:03 > 0:40:06Here's my perfume bottle. Right.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10What do you think of that? It's very beautiful. Gorgeous.

0:40:10 > 0:40:14That's a weight. It's a nice weight. Do you collect perfume bottles?

0:40:14 > 0:40:16I have got a few, but none of this style.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19It's very pretty, the shape of this.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22The question is, do you like it enough?

0:40:22 > 0:40:27I think so. I think it will fit in with the other ones I have.

0:40:27 > 0:40:30It's ?75 to you, madam. TRACY LAUGHS

0:40:30 > 0:40:34Ooh! I have to remember that we have to be friends afterwards. Yes.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Can you do anything better on that price?

0:40:37 > 0:40:40That's a little bit more than I was hoping to pay.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43I can come down. What were you thinking?

0:40:43 > 0:40:46Is 50 too low, do you think? Afraid it is.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49If we can go up a bit, I'll be very happy.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52I would be satisfied and happy with 60.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55I think 60's a fair enough price. Tracy!

0:40:55 > 0:40:58It's all yours. I'll try not to drop it now!

0:40:58 > 0:40:59Thank you.

0:41:00 > 0:41:04'What is that? A hint of lavender? A whiff of vanilla?

0:41:04 > 0:41:07'It adds up to a pleasing profit of ?40 for Jonty.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10'The selling has now reached its dramatic climax.

0:41:10 > 0:41:15'Before we find out who's today's winner, let's remind ourselves of what they spent.

0:41:15 > 0:41:20'Paul and Jonty both started out with ?750 of their own money.

0:41:20 > 0:41:23'Paul made six deals and, including costs, spent...

0:41:26 > 0:41:31'Jonty picked up one more item, making it seven purchases for him...

0:41:33 > 0:41:37'All that matters now is who has made the most profit.

0:41:37 > 0:41:42'All the money from today's challenge will go to our dealers' chosen charities.

0:41:42 > 0:41:46'Let's find out who is today's Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is champion.'

0:41:46 > 0:41:49Hello, Jonty. Paul, how are you doing?

0:41:49 > 0:41:52I have a confession. Go on. I am very nervous today.

0:41:52 > 0:41:55Very nervous, because that antiques fair was your patch.

0:41:55 > 0:41:58It was, but you're the king of the profits. How did you get on?

0:41:58 > 0:42:01One of my favourite sales, remember the porthole? Yes.

0:42:01 > 0:42:06Converted to a mirror? Yes. I did really well cos I made ?90 profit.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09I was really pleased but everything else was quite hard work.

0:42:09 > 0:42:15My favourite and probably the rarest item has to be that 19th-century Irish pocket watch.

0:42:15 > 0:42:19Even the guy I sold it to hadn't seen one for a long time. Such a rare item.

0:42:19 > 0:42:23I paid ?60 for it, got 110, so that's ?50 profit.

0:42:23 > 0:42:27Did you sell it to an Irishman? No, funnily enough.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30How do you think you've done? Shall we find out?

0:42:30 > 0:42:34Let's give it a go. Good luck, Jonty. One, two, three.

0:42:36 > 0:42:39Look at that! That's massive! Oooh!

0:42:39 > 0:42:43You are king of the profits. I'm really pleased. Well done, mate.

0:42:43 > 0:42:46That was on my patch as well. It was. Sorry about that.

0:42:46 > 0:42:51'Today's winner is Jonty, who bought well and sold even better.'

0:42:51 > 0:42:57I'm a very relieved man because I was able to buy items that I know I can make a profit on,

0:42:57 > 0:43:01but I took a risk and everything ended up making a profit.

0:43:01 > 0:43:04I must admit, I thought I had that challenge won.

0:43:04 > 0:43:06The pocket watch was a great selling item.

0:43:06 > 0:43:10What's really annoying is I saw that porthole! Why didn't I buy it?

0:43:10 > 0:43:12Well done, Jonty.

0:43:12 > 0:43:16'No time for regrets, as tomorrow our duelling dealers will do battle

0:43:16 > 0:43:20'on foreign shores at the Saint-Ouen antiques market in Paris.'
