0:00:08 > 0:00:12What do you get if you take two teams who have to buy three items
0:00:12 > 0:00:17and you have two experts who have to find two bonus buys?
0:00:17 > 0:00:22You get one excellent, one-hour special programme.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25So, let's go bargain hunting, yeah!
0:00:46 > 0:00:50And today, we've changed the rules a bit, because I'm going to be
0:00:50 > 0:00:52asking each of the experts to find
0:00:52 > 0:00:56not one, but two bonus buys.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01And then, I'm going to be giving my opinion on which one is going
0:01:01 > 0:01:06to be the most profitable. But which will the teams choose?
0:01:06 > 0:01:07And who will be right?
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Them or me?
0:01:09 > 0:01:13And here's a quick taster of what's coming up here in Derby today.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19- Reds are like headless chickens... - Go, go, right.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21- Where do you want to go, that way? - Come on, then.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24While the Blues prove easily excitable.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Yes!
0:01:26 > 0:01:29But who will steal the winning prize at auction?
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- Tim, tell us what to do.- Just tell me.- I can't tell you, you've got one lot to go
0:01:32 > 0:01:34and you've got to make a decision.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Let's meet today's teams.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41Today, on the programme, we have students who are friends -
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Toby and Charlie. And for the Blues,
0:01:44 > 0:01:47we have friends who are also teachers -
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Julie and Sue.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51- Hello, everyone.- ALL: Hello. - Good to see you.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55Now, Tobes! It was the Church that drew you together.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57It was indeed, yes. I was on a gap year
0:01:57 > 0:01:59and I came back from a ski season,
0:01:59 > 0:02:03and Charlie here was leading a boy's Bible study group in my lounge
0:02:03 > 0:02:04with my younger brother and his friends.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07And I turned up and there he was, sitting in my lounge
0:02:07 > 0:02:10- with a nice cup of coffee... - Yes, you thought, "What are you doing here?"
0:02:10 > 0:02:14Yeah, I was a little bit taken aback. I thought, "Who's this guy, taking my place in my house?"
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- Not an immediate Christian thought, anyway.- Well, maybe not, but, you know...
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Yeah, and we just sort of hit it off, met up for lunch a few times.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22And we've been sort of bessies since, haven't we?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- It's a very romantic tale. - And what are you studying?
0:02:24 > 0:02:28- Human Geography and French at Aberystwyth University.- Are you?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- Yes.- Now, Charlie, you're studying, apparently,
0:02:30 > 0:02:34an MA in Theology at St John's Theological College in Nottingham.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- That's it.- Tell me more.- I read Theology at Nottingham University
0:02:37 > 0:02:40and then I moved on to St John's in Nottingham to study an MA
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- whilst training for the Ministry as well.- So, when you finish your training,
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- you will be a curate?- I will...
0:02:46 > 0:02:51- Simultaneously?- Yeah, I'll be an ordained man who carries an MA with him everywhere he goes.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53What do you know about antiques, Tobes?
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Um...- Anything? Honestly? - A few things.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- Like what?- Me and Charlie quite enjoy...
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Lalique glass...- Do you? You enjoy it?
0:03:00 > 0:03:04- We enjoy looking at it.- Oh, looking, yeah. Have you ever bought a bit?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06- Not yet, we're hoping to today. - Oh, really?
0:03:06 > 0:03:08I have a collection of Toby mugs as well.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12- Well, you would do, wouldn't you? - Yeah, absolutely, which I got my grandmother.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Have you got any Charlie mugs?- No Charlie mugs, no, no.- Just a mugshot.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18- Charlie, do you know anything about antiques?- Nothing at all really.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21- On that basis, you'll do terribly well...- Brilliant.- Thank you very much.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Now, moving on. Girls, you have been friends for...
0:03:24 > 0:03:27it says here 50 years, but then, you did meet as children.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Well, yes. We met at the age of 11
0:03:30 > 0:03:33and we've been friends for 49 years.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- So, if you're very good at maths... - Yes.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40It's a very significant birthday for both of us this year.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Yes.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45- You wouldn't know... - Not at all.- Not at all.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47And you both went into the teaching profession?
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Yes, I started in 1975 and I feel
0:03:50 > 0:03:52very privileged to have had
0:03:52 > 0:03:56the opportunity to have an influence on many young lives.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58You like writing ditties for special occasions, don't you?
0:03:58 > 0:04:00I have, I did one for my son's wedding,
0:04:00 > 0:04:02and, Tim, I've done one for you today.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Then let's have it!
0:04:04 > 0:04:06OK, here we go!
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Oh, what a joy to be here on this spot,
0:04:09 > 0:04:13with Bargain Hunt presenter Tim Wonnacott.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17His dashing good looks and his bright dickie bows make him
0:04:17 > 0:04:20recognised by millions, wherever he goes.
0:04:20 > 0:04:25Today, we're hunting for bargains galore to take to auction
0:04:25 > 0:04:27and sell for LOADS more.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30With an expert by our side,
0:04:30 > 0:04:31how can we go wrong?
0:04:31 > 0:04:34See you later, Tim. We won't be long.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38There's an invitation. I feel like going back to school, actually.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Anyway, good. Now, Julie, you are also a member of the teaching profession.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44I am. I've loved my career.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48I've taught for...how many years? 40 years almost now.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51And I've loved nearly every day.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- You're also frightfully keen on travelling?- I am, yes.
0:04:54 > 0:05:00Got married in Las Vegas and that started a travelogue of going
0:05:00 > 0:05:02to different places around the world.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06And each year, on our anniversary, we do the next letter of the alphabet.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09- That's a fun way of going about it, isn't it?- Yes.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- And how are you going to get on as a team today?- It'll be a laugh a minute, whatever.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16- Absolutely.- And you won't be nervous at all, will you, or anything like that?
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- Oh, no.- No, no, no. OK, fine. Well, now we've got to the money moment.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22£300 apiece, you know the rules. Here you go. You know the rules,
0:05:22 > 0:05:24your experts await, and off you go!
0:05:24 > 0:05:27And very, very, very good luck.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28Oh, Lordy.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33Now, let's meet our experts.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38Studious Nick Hall will be keeping an eye on the student Red Team.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40And teaching our Blue teachers team
0:05:40 > 0:05:43how to gallop ahead is Jonathan Pratt.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47- Well, here we are, guys. We're ready to shop, yeah?- BOTH: Yep.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- Students against teachers.- Fired up, yeah.- OK, we're going to go to
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- the top of the class, aren't we?- I think so, yeah.- What are we looking for today?
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Well, I'm quite into vases and I hear the Asian market is
0:05:56 > 0:05:58- quite strong at the moment. - Asian vases suits me.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Right, ladies, we're here at the fair - what do you want to buy?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- Something of good quality that's going to appeal to lots of people. - Good.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- What do you like?- Always glass, 20th-century glass, anything we've got.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Spot on, let's go and find some.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11And I'd perhaps like a piece of glassware with silver.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15OK. Right, well there's lots to choose from. I think we should go shopping.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16Come on, let's go.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Right teams, your 60 minutes starts now.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Wait for school bell, eh?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23BELL RINGS
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Go, go, right. Which way do you want to go, that way? Go on, then.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Make your mind up, gents.
0:06:29 > 0:06:34OK, OK. So, what have we got here, then? This looks like a nice...
0:06:34 > 0:06:38- Actually, look - Asian vase.- Is that Asian, Nick?- No, it's English.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Quality handmade in the UK. - Oh, we don't want that.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42There's a clue there, isn't there?
0:06:47 > 0:06:48She's a bit glam, isn't she?
0:06:48 > 0:06:51I haven't go my lippy on today, so I'm not...
0:06:51 > 0:06:54I can't compete with that, unfortunately, today. Definitely not.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57There's a sort of striking resemblance.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Jonathan, what a star you are.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00Charmer.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04- What have you found?- Moser tumblers.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06- OK, um...- What is Moser?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Moser is a factory, a designer. - It's not Asian, is it?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11No, but it's glass.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13- It's good 20th-century glass. - Is it Lalique?- No, it's Moser.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Moser is the name of the designer, the factory,
0:07:16 > 0:07:18the manufacturer, as is Lalique for their glass.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20- OK.- What does it say on the ticket? How much?
0:07:20 > 0:07:22225 quid, Nick.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Right. Possibly a little steep for auction purposes.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Good retail price, but it's not what we want today for the auction. - You reckon?
0:07:28 > 0:07:32Keep looking, Reds. Now, from one piece of glass to another.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35That's very traditional. It's sort of...almost Victorian in style.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39But I wanted to see what the label was, and the label says Val Saint Lambert.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Val Saint Lambert's a very good French glass factory.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- I mean, feel the weight of that. - Oh, gosh.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48And how sharp that is. You squeeze that and you'll probably... you'll probably bleed.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- Yeah, you can...- Would it appeal to you, Julie?- I don't know.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55I'm picking up something, putting it in front of you, and I get an idea you might not...
0:07:55 > 0:07:58I won't point anything else out that looks at all like that.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00- No.- OK, so point taken, thank you very much.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Well, that's them told by Head Teacher Jonathan.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11This is a little ringing bell, isn't it?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13- Yeah, you twist the top. - You twist it?
0:08:13 > 0:08:17- Well, that slightly doesn't matter... - Yeah, the mechanism's gone a bit funny.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- That's going to lose a lot of profit...- So what's it on for?
0:08:20 > 0:08:21- It's on for 60 quid.- Yes.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24I'll tell you what, I'll give you 20 for it, because it's a bit broken.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28- Do me 30, and it's yours. - 25 and I'll shake... No.- 20!
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- 20, and I'll throw... - 25, and he'll shake your hand.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- Got my hand there, 20 and I'll shake your hand.- I'll do 25.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- Brilliant.- Do you want to do it? - Yeah, although we should ask Nick.- Where's Nick?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Yes, you should, lads.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Ask your expert before you get carried away.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Nick!
0:08:42 > 0:08:44We've just bought something by accident.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47- It doesn't stand out at me, though.- No.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48No, it doesn't stand out.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Nick, Nick! Come on!
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- What ARE you two up to? - Look, we've got this, right?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- They've just bought it. - It's nothing...- £650.- No, we haven't bought it.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- I wouldn't doubt that for a second. - It's not real silver, is it?
0:09:02 > 0:09:04- The base is silver. - Hallmark silver?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- Yes. The base is hallmarked. - And the top?- Chrome.- Right!
0:09:07 > 0:09:11There's a chance, then, the top might have been damaged and replaced with a non-silver part.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14We don't know that, it seems to fit very well. How much is it?
0:09:14 > 0:09:16- Well... - 25 quid.- We made a deal with 25.
0:09:16 > 0:09:1825... Is that the very best?
0:09:18 > 0:09:22- It's priced at 60.- 20.- Gosh, was it? - I can't do 20.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26I tell you what, if it was 60 and it's down to 25, you have done well. You don't need me.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30We do need you, Nick, because we need to know whether this 25 is going to make us any return.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32'You can tell they're students, can't you?'
0:09:32 > 0:09:34It's a nice little object. If you want it, buy it.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36- I think you're safe.- 25 quid?
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Job done.- You know what, I'll meet it in the middle - 22.50?
0:09:38 > 0:09:41- I can't... - 25!- All right, shake my hand.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47These two seem to be a couple of eager and cheeky chaps - 10 minutes
0:09:47 > 0:09:50into the shop and they've made their first purchase, well done!
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Meanwhile, the Blues are on par with Jonathan.
0:09:53 > 0:09:54- Jonathan.- Yes?
0:09:54 > 0:09:56The gold golf pin.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59- That's nine carat gold.- Yeah. - That's quite nice.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02That's a nice little pin for a golf captain's wife, or something.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- So it's nine carat gold.- It is. I rather like that.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I quite like that as well.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Let's see what it says.
0:10:10 > 0:10:11It's got the age...
0:10:12 > 0:10:14It's just about 100 years old.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17It's got the little ball still attached to the bottom.
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Could me make an offer on it?
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- Go on.- 30?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Too low.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- 32?- Five?
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- Oh, 32?- No, 35.- £35?
0:10:26 > 0:10:27£35.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- 35. 35?- Yeah. Yes, I think...
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- Do you like that?- Yes, I do. - And you really like it?- Yes!
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- So you're going to buy it? - I'd wear that myself...- Yes!
0:10:35 > 0:10:39- We'll buy it.- Thank you very much. - ALL: Thank you.- Yes!
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Calm down, Sue, it's only your first buy.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44But the pitch works well, and shooting straight down the
0:10:44 > 0:10:47shopping fairway, you're certainly on the right course, well done.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53The Reds seem to have divine guidance - there's no Nick in sight.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56What kind of price are we looking at in these kind of things here?
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Prices start at £10.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00- So that one... £22 for that.- What are they?
0:11:00 > 0:11:04Old Topton ware, named after a village in Derbyshire.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Oh, really? Is that where you live?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08No. They're never made there.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Hand-painted, tube-lined.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13- It's all modern stuff. - It's modern stuff.- Yeah.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- It's not going to sell, is it? - It might sell.- Do you reckon?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Yeah, absolutely. People might just like it.- Yeah...
0:11:18 > 0:11:20It's just about making profits, Tobes.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Stop thinking about what it IS, just make the money.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25That sounds like competitive talk.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29- Great, well, we may well come back. Thanks a lot.- Thank you.
0:11:29 > 0:11:33- What about this reticulated... What's this chap?- That's Capo.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- Is it really?- And that is very...
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Have a look.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39- I don't like that. - Do you not like that?
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- I don't like the colour.- It's Capodimonte, Italian...porcelain.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45£65. It looks the part, doesn't it?
0:11:45 > 0:11:49- It does.- It does. You do have Capodimonte collectors, don't you?
0:11:49 > 0:11:53- Yeah, you do.- What you'd want, though, is...you'd want that to be pierced.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55From over there... I thought this would be pierced.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58You can see through it and that's what they call reticulated,
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Where they cut through, but this is just sort of piped on.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04But then, Capodimonte were making very commercial pottery.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06They did lots of figures of tramps lying on benches
0:12:06 > 0:12:09and very cartoon-esque sort of things.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12- I wouldn't...- I wouldn't have, no. - But somebody might...
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Wouldn't let that over the threshold, would you?- No.- No.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18No, I can see that. We'll carry on looking, but thanks.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Thank you very much. Very nice to have met you.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22Yep, carry on looking, Blues.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Meanwhile, Nick is caught up with his students.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27I've found something for you.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Now, I THINK it's going to tick both your boxes.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33- OK.- You like vases. You like 20th-century design.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- We do.- Well, I've found some 20th-century design vases. - Brilliant!
0:12:36 > 0:12:37Come with me and I'll show you.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Now, guys...
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Not one, but two...
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Look at that, one each.
0:12:47 > 0:12:5019... Late '60s, early '70s.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Poole Pottery, Delphis range.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Very desirable in the modern, chic, contemporary home.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00- Are they actually a pair? - No, they're not a pair, they're two
0:13:00 > 0:13:03very separate, individually made studio pieces.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06I would suggest we put them together as one lot
0:13:06 > 0:13:09and collectors of Poole, of Delphis, of '70s retro chic...
0:13:09 > 0:13:13They're going to be bidding, because you've got a nice little group lot there.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15- There's a little chip on this one. - Is there?
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- You see that?- Oh, yeah. - Is that a chip?
0:13:19 > 0:13:23- Oh, it's... Actually, if you feel it, it's under the glaze.- OK.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27OK, so that happened before it left the factory. It's acceptable.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30If they were concerned it would have been a factory seconds
0:13:30 > 0:13:33and they would have had a slash through the mark.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34And that there's the same?
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Yeah, it's just a minor imperfection in the kiln.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- But actually, that's just uniqueness. - Absolutely.
0:13:39 > 0:13:40I think there's mileage in it.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43Now, I did have a quick chat with the owner.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Now, he was asking 65 quid each, but you can have to two for 80 quid.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52It's tempting! Do you reckon it's tempting? I mean, do you reckon...
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- Is this what we're looking for? - Well, it ticks your boxes. - It does tick our boxes, Toby.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58I reckon the profit we make on these could put
0:13:58 > 0:14:01those teachers on the naughty step.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05On the naughty step? Put them back in their place, eh? Shall we just go for it?
0:14:05 > 0:14:06- Just get on with it.- Yep.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08- You've got one each as well. - There you go.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11So, Nick has completed his lesson on Poole vases
0:14:11 > 0:14:14and they become the second purchase for the Reds.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Go to the top of the class, guys!
0:14:16 > 0:14:19Now, focus, please. I have a question for you.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22When was the last time you visited the opticians?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Well, we're supposed to go often.
0:14:25 > 0:14:30But what would you do in 1821 if your eyesight was a bit dicky?
0:14:30 > 0:14:36Actually, you go to an instrument maker, who would equip you with a
0:14:36 > 0:14:39case, if you were rich, like this.
0:14:39 > 0:14:45A wafer-thin veneer of tortoiseshell applied to a wooden carcass and...
0:14:45 > 0:14:51open comes the case, and out come the glasses themselves.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55At the end of the 18th century, spectacles started,
0:14:55 > 0:14:59in this country, to have oval lenses like this.
0:14:59 > 0:15:04These were thought, in 1821, to be uber smart.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07What do you think? They're not unfashionable today.
0:15:07 > 0:15:12The frames themselves are universally good and practical.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16What I love about this pair is the fact that they are solid silver
0:15:16 > 0:15:19and if you look carefully, we've got the silver marks.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21They're stamped on either side.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23And also, in the middle of the frame,
0:15:23 > 0:15:25on either side of the nosebridge.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28And by a strange coincidence, and
0:15:28 > 0:15:30that's the way with these things,
0:15:30 > 0:15:34in the same fair, I came across these two little boxes.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36And if I open them up,
0:15:36 > 0:15:40they contain a whole array of opticians lenses,
0:15:40 > 0:15:42some of which
0:15:42 > 0:15:45actually have the prescription strength
0:15:45 > 0:15:46written on little labels.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52If you're a collector or a restorer of optical instruments,
0:15:52 > 0:15:56these things are going to be worth a lot of money.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57How much?
0:15:57 > 0:16:02Well, you could buy them for £15, for the two boxes.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06And the spectacles themselves?
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Well, they're Georgian, they're solid silver,
0:16:08 > 0:16:10they come in this spectacular case,
0:16:10 > 0:16:16and they would cost you a slightly out-of-focus £160.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18How's that?
0:16:18 > 0:16:22Back to the shopping now. It's 2-1 up to the Reds.
0:16:22 > 0:16:26With time slipping by, both teams need to get their skates on.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- No, you don't look enthralled. - I'll tell you why.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Because at auction, there's new laws, and if that is Rosewood...
0:16:32 > 0:16:33Uh, anything post-1947,
0:16:33 > 0:16:37if you're selling Rosewood you need a...what we call an Article 10.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40We'll pass on that one. Thank you very much.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43It's a protected material, so there'd be a certificate to sell it.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45The certificate will cost £25, so...
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Well, we've got you to advise us, so we don't need a certificate.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- Thanks a lot.- Thank you, bye!
0:16:51 > 0:16:55Yes, how lucky you are. Just follow your expert, girls.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57- You wanted some silver mounted glass.- Yes.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59And I thought I was going to come back.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Pair of little salts.- Oh, they're lovely.- London, 1912.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06That tells us immediately, because they've put the label in there, that
0:17:06 > 0:17:09they are silver. And so there's a mark on the edge there.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14But that's nicely cut glass with good quality silver rims,
0:17:14 > 0:17:17and you've got a couple of little spoons that go with it.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19And the thing with this, you could use it.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22You could pop it on to the dining table.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Is that the price?
0:17:26 > 0:17:30- Um.- That's not the price, is it? - Well, about 70, 65.
0:17:30 > 0:17:35- Do you want to make an offer? - 50?- Yes. Yes.- Thank you very much.
0:17:35 > 0:17:40- Thank you very much.- Number two bought. That's lovely. Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Well done, Blues. That's item number two ticked off the shopping list.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Now, how are the Reds getting on?
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- Toby, meet Toby. Toby, this is Toby.- Hi, Toby.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Now, this chap, this portly fella, he's had a good breakfast,
0:17:52 > 0:17:54hasn't he? Look at him.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Now he's not like a lot of Toby jugs, because they have a big
0:17:57 > 0:18:01flagon of foaming ale, because they were tavern pieces.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03This chappie is taking snuff.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Makes him a little bit rarer than the normal beer-drinking Toby jugs.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Date wise, he's not as early as some.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13The really early ones are 18th century.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15This chap is very much in the Victorian period.
0:18:15 > 0:18:19He's probably 1860, something around there. He's been around a while.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23They are currently asking £60.
0:18:23 > 0:18:28Now, I think that will make easily between £50 and £80 at auction.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32So if I can get that down to nearer the 50 mark, I think we are
0:18:32 > 0:18:35- going to be quids in.- Lower end estimate, 50 quid at auction.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38- 40 quid. That's only a tenner. - Under the low end of the estimate.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42- What if it makes 60, 70? - But that's only 30, 40.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44How much profit do you think you're going to make?
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- We reckon we can make a lot of profit on this show.- We've only got...
0:18:47 > 0:18:50This last one really needs to be what raises those margins,
0:18:50 > 0:18:53- and I'm not sure that's going to do that.- You tell him, lads.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55What I'm going to do, is I'm going to put it back on the stall.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59We'll hold it back as plan B, put him on the subs bench.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01He may come off in the second half and score us a winner.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04My! This pair mean business.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Teams, you now have under 30 minutes left.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08We need to be bold.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Bigger and bolder.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Keen to leave no stone unturned,
0:19:12 > 0:19:16both teams want to scour every last inch of today's fair.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- I think it's really dull.- I think it's dull.- Speak your mind, lads.
0:19:21 > 0:19:241960s. Scandinavian glass.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28And what I do like is what's hidden underneath here.
0:19:28 > 0:19:33The engraved details of the manufacturer, the Holmegaard Factory.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36Very well-known. Very popular with collectors at the moment.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39That is not a design I have seen before from this factory.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41And I've seen a lot of it.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Which makes that fairly, relatively scarce.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46- And so what price is it? - What are they asking for?
0:19:46 > 0:19:49They are asking £80.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52I suspect there is some movement on that.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54I always like a bit of movement.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55I'm here to do business.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59There's always a bit of movement. Make me an offer.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02- 20 quid.- Get real.
0:20:02 > 0:20:03It's a brilliant...
0:20:03 > 0:20:06I thought that might be the reaction,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09- so I'm going to do you a really good deal and say 25.- There you go.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10No. Absolutely...
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- I'm sorry.- 30.- Give me 70.
0:20:14 > 0:20:1650 is going to be the highest.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20- If that, maybe 40.- I was going to go 40 but he's gone 50, so we will...
0:20:20 > 0:20:22I will have to agree with Toby on 50.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Give me a bit of profit in it, and I'll meet you halfway.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- OK, 50 quid, then.- No, 60.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30I'll meet you halfway. Between 70 and 50. I'll meet you halfway.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34- What did you buy it for, and we'll make sure you get a bit of profit. - I'll decide that.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36She'll decide that. Sorry, Sonia.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39I don't think we should go lower than 50. I'm really sorry, Sonia.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42These lads certainly push hard. Students, eh?
0:20:44 > 0:20:48Left to their own devices, these Reds are potentially lethal.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Does anything in there strike you?
0:20:50 > 0:20:51Oh!
0:20:51 > 0:20:55Reunited with Nick, it's time for a team chat for the Reds.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58It's getting close to decision time.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01We've got just under 15 minutes left, OK.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04We've got some back burners, we've got
0:21:04 > 0:21:09the Toby jug, and that nice bit of glass. The Holmegaard.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11I wanted to go for something a bit bigger, for fun.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15- Bigger in terms of dimension or value?- Both at the same time.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18I want to walk round again, and if anything catches our eye,
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- let's go see it.- Not so much "walk", as maybe canter around.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24- Because time is ticking. - Oh, hello, again.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28Let's see if the Blues give this stallholder an easier time.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32- I was going to point out some nice things for you.- We're in the money. - You're in the money, OK.
0:21:32 > 0:21:33Stevens & Williams.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37That jug is threaded glass. It's ruby glass.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39It's really nice.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41The skill involved in making that is phenomenal.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43It's piped onto it. Yeah.
0:21:43 > 0:21:48- Stevens & Williams have been going since the late Victorian years. - And how much is this?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- I've got 158 on that.- 158 on that.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53It's quite fashionable in the sense that the colour,
0:21:53 > 0:21:57that almost an iridescence as it reflects the light. It's a major skill.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59- It really is.- Honestly...
0:21:59 > 0:22:02It's molten glass being drizzled onto it.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Even putting the handle on afterwards, the breakage rate would have been
0:22:06 > 0:22:08phenomenal, because it has to cool down
0:22:08 > 0:22:11and then reheated up again, in order to get the handle on.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14You could use it for lemonade, or you could put some flowers in it.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17- I think that's quite tasteful. - It is a nice object.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- It is a nice object. - It's different. Shall we go for that?
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- It's a lot of money. - Yeah, see what we can get it for.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28- Make me an offer. - Here we go again.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31How much?
0:22:31 > 0:22:33- 80.- Get real.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36You said, "make me an offer".
0:22:38 > 0:22:40- 110?- 100.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42120?
0:22:42 > 0:22:46Meet me at 125, just give me a bit of leeway with it.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- 122.- 122?
0:22:48 > 0:22:49You're going to stick at this, are you?
0:22:49 > 0:22:50Please.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Go on, a bit of something's better than a lot of nothing.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- Thank you very much indeed. That's absolutely lovely.- Well done, ladies.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00- We're done.- We're done. Oh, thank you so much.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03Bit of James Brown.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06# We feel good do-do-do-do-do
0:23:06 > 0:23:09# I knew that we would now do-do-do-do-do. #
0:23:09 > 0:23:12Oh, I'm loving the Blues' style, yeah.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14As the Blues celebrate completing their shop,
0:23:14 > 0:23:18the pressure is mounting on the Reds to find their last purchase.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23They now have five minutes.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25I'm slightly worried that we won't find anything.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28Yes, I know. So am I.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Guys. When I said at "a canter", not that fast.
0:23:31 > 0:23:35Now, just to confuse you even more, to add another dimension
0:23:35 > 0:23:38to your dilemma, I've found something that's quite interesting.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41- That's why this guy is brilliant. - This is an interesting item,
0:23:41 > 0:23:44priced up at £87.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45It's 19th century.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49Russian, enamelled bronze with a really nice...
0:23:50 > 0:23:55..theme. You've got the theological theme there,
0:23:55 > 0:23:57and it's quite intricately decorated.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02- You've got the Last Supper.- Jesus there.- You've got the Ascension.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Oh, great.- Jairus' daughter there.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07It's so up your street, but it's also a work of art at the same time.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10- It kind of ticks all the boxes. - It is. It's an icon.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13There's a limited...limited...
0:24:13 > 0:24:15- Market.- ..market for religious icons.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19Russian works of art are doing well at the moment.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21- There's a lot of money in Russia. - Oh, really.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24And like the Chinese, they are buying back their works of art.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Putin himself might want some.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Well, if you've got his number, speed dial him.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32- Maybe...- Could this be... What is this, bronze?- Yeah.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35- Bronze with enamel work on it.- OK, so can it be cleaned up a bit?
0:24:35 > 0:24:37I wasn't going to clean it. You would ruin it.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41If we can get it down to 60, that's the same price as the glassware.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43What's going to sell better, because this...
0:24:43 > 0:24:46I would guess the glass would sell better. It's more collected.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51It's a difficult one, because they are such different markets.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54That, for me, stands out as an usual object that could well
0:24:54 > 0:24:56- surprise us all.- I like it. And it's us.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Personally, I mean, in terms of you and me, that interests me
0:24:59 > 0:25:02with what's it's got more than a glass bowl.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05It's all of us, in a way, because it's got your beliefs,
0:25:05 > 0:25:07your background, a lot of you in it.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10And for me, it's a wonderful 19th-century work of art.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- I need to go and have a chat, or you need to have a chat.- Let's go have a chat.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16So, after the guys have had a chat with our shy stallholder
0:25:16 > 0:25:19away from the cameras, they head back to Nick with news.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23Guys, have you had divine inspiration? What's happened?
0:25:23 > 0:25:25I think the spirit has been dwelling among us and
0:25:25 > 0:25:27on this lovely lady.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30And...and has given us a great price between us all,
0:25:30 > 0:25:35- which is a whop...a cheap £55. - Seriously?- Is that good, Nick?
0:25:35 > 0:25:39- Oh, good news, chaps.- That's down from 87. That ain't half bad.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41You did well. You're good at this, you two. Fantastic.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- Well, that is our third buy.- There you go.- We're done, we're dusted.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Now I need someone with an old tick-tock.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Hello, hello. Have you got a watch? - I do indeed.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Can I see the time? Oh, look at that. Time's up.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56Now, here's a quick reminder as to what the Reds bought.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58A small silver counter bell caught their attention,
0:25:58 > 0:26:02and rang out to the tune of £25.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07A couple of Poole pottery vases cost them £80.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12And finally, a Russian enamel and bronze devotional icon set them
0:26:12 > 0:26:14back £55.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- Well, was that good fun? - Yes, absolutely.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22- So how much did you spend between you?- 160.- 160.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25I'd like £140 of leftover lolly, please. Well done.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29There's the collection money. And what was your favourite piece?
0:26:29 > 0:26:31- I liked the little bell. - Did you? Oh, fine.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33- You didn't like the little bell? - It was all right.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- I quite liked the Russian Orthodox icon.- Oh, well done. Brilliant.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?
0:26:38 > 0:26:42I think the vase is more safe, but I think that the Russian Orthodox
0:26:42 > 0:26:45- icon has got potential to surprise us.- OK. Do you agree with that?
0:26:45 > 0:26:47- Yeah, absolutely.- Well done. We'll see what happens.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- There's £140 going across. - Wonderful.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53You're going to get the extra £100 for the Tim's Ton.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56There you go, there's Tim's Ton. Do your very best.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Meanwhile, we're going to check out what the Blue team bought, aren't we?
0:26:59 > 0:27:03They teed off with a nine carat gold golf club bar brooch,
0:27:03 > 0:27:06which set them back £35.
0:27:06 > 0:27:11The cased pair of cut glass silver mounted condiments cost them £50.
0:27:12 > 0:27:16And finally, they poured £122 into a
0:27:16 > 0:27:19ribbed ruby glass lemonade jug.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22- Well, girls. How was it for you? - Very good. Very interesting.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27- Which is your favourite piece? - I think the gold pin.
0:27:27 > 0:27:28The gold pin. Yeah.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32- OK, fine. Susan, for you?- I do like the nice jug that we bought.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- OK, is that going to bring the biggest profit?- Perhaps.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39- And you spent how much?- 207. - I'd like £93, please.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42Thank you very much. 93, JP. There it is.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Of course, you've got your double challenge now, because here
0:27:45 > 0:27:49comes Tim's Ton, the extra £100 to find the extra bonus buy.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51- So you're doubly challenged. - Thank you very much.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Go have a nice cup of tea, girls.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56Now, how's Nick getting on finding those two bonus buys?
0:27:56 > 0:27:59The first of which is the team's bonus buy.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Well, I couldn't leave Toby behind, could I?
0:28:01 > 0:28:05I showed him to the boys earlier. Toby is part of the team, the Red team.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07And at £40, I think there's profit in this.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09He's coming with us to the auction.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15- And how about your Tim's Ton, Nick?- I love these char...
0:28:15 > 0:28:18- Are they a pair?- They are a mirror pair.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Japanese. About 1900.
0:28:21 > 0:28:25I like the hand-painted signature and the impressed mark as well.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29- The big question is, how much do you want for them?- Well, I'd really like 90.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33- 75, how is that?- No, that's a little too far.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36I'll tell you what, if we round it up and call it 80 for the pair.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38- OK, we've got a deal. - Happy with that?- That's fine.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40£80, I'm over the moon.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43Now, let's have a chat with Nick about both bonus buys.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47- Well, this is exciting, Nick, isn't it?- Isn't it just.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49You're being put on the line here, old fruit.
0:28:49 > 0:28:54Now, for the team's bonus buy, you have bought the Toby jug, yes?
0:28:54 > 0:28:57I did indeed, yes. For dear old Toby, of course.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00- Did you spend the whole 140?- No. Very frugal.
0:29:00 > 0:29:02- £40 only.- Did you?- Yes.
0:29:02 > 0:29:04Now, so, that doesn't seem a lot of money,
0:29:04 > 0:29:06because Toby jugs can make a lot, can't they?
0:29:06 > 0:29:09- But this one isn't very old, is it? - No, no.- This was made when?
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Do you think in 1920?
0:29:11 > 0:29:15Yeah, I think that sort of early 20th-century, Victorian Revival.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19- And it's in good condition.- Yeah. I like the fact that he's taking snuff as well.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23- Makes it a little bit different. - Two drugs. Alcohol and tobacco.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26So Tim's Ton, I gave you £100 for, and you bought the two chargers.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28I did indeed, yeah.
0:29:28 > 0:29:29Again, it all comes down to the age.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32They've got the look, but they're not old.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36And, frankly, they could have come over in a container, with
0:29:36 > 0:29:39- a whole lot of other ones 20 years ago.- Might be going back yet.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41Yes, exactly.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45Well, my judgment is the judgment of Solomon, because I have to predict
0:29:45 > 0:29:49which one I think is going to make the biggest amount of profit.
0:29:49 > 0:29:54I cannot bring myself to predict that the modern Chinese
0:29:54 > 0:29:57ceramics is going to do it. I can't bring myself.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00I could easily be proven wrong.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03I'm going to put my little sticker, for my prediction
0:30:03 > 0:30:05as to which is going to bring the biggest profit.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07You do rise to quite a considerable challenge,
0:30:07 > 0:30:10because this isn't a big fair, is it? So, you've done well.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12Thank you very much.
0:30:12 > 0:30:13And, of course,
0:30:13 > 0:30:16the teams only have one choice, to go with one or the other.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19So the one they don't pick will be sold,
0:30:19 > 0:30:21and if it makes a profit, it will go to charity.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24If the teams don't pick either of these bonus buys,
0:30:24 > 0:30:28- they'll both be sold and all profits go to charity.- Wonderful, good.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32- It's a double win-win for you. - Completely.- Hopefully.
0:30:32 > 0:30:36Anyway, right now, why don't we check out how JP is getting on,
0:30:36 > 0:30:38shopping for his bonus buys?
0:30:38 > 0:30:42Remember, Jonathan had £93 of leftover lolly for his team's
0:30:42 > 0:30:45bonus buy. With their special anniversary in mind,
0:30:45 > 0:30:47what are your thoughts, JP?
0:30:47 > 0:30:50I've seen something that might help celebrate that for them.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53And I know they like glass, and this auction will be glass as well.
0:30:53 > 0:30:58So I'm going to go for, I think, a piece of glass.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00There we are. Job done. Really pleased with this.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03I think the ladies are going to absolutely love it. And at £58,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06I think there's a really good deal. I'll drink to that, anyway.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09So how do you plan to spend your Tim's Ton, JP?
0:31:09 > 0:31:13I've been around this round building so many times
0:31:13 > 0:31:16and, do you know what, I'm fed up with buying ceramics now.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19I want to buy something different. I'd like to have a go at this chappie here.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- Is this is the 100mph sign?- It is.- The railway sign.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25- Is that what it is?- Yes. Speed, you know, like Flying Scotsman,
0:31:25 > 0:31:27100mph, that's it.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30Ah! That's more interesting.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33- I didn't think it was English, you see.- Oh, yes.- Oh, brilliant.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36That makes it, sort of, railwayana.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39- I'd like to make you an offer on it. - OK.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44- See what you think. I'd like to offer you £60.- No.- Can't do 60 on it?
0:31:44 > 0:31:46- Can do very close.- I'm very close.
0:31:48 > 0:31:52Obviously not 100. 65? 60s...
0:31:52 > 0:31:56- Get the speed up a bit. Just a fraction.- OK.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59- £70?- We can do 70.- Thank you very much. Brilliant, OK.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03Now, let me catch up with Jonathan about these bonus buys.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08- Well, JP. You have gone to town, haven't you?- I'm afraid so.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10Now, the girls,
0:32:10 > 0:32:14they gave you £93 of leftover lolly for the team's bonus buy.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16And there we have it.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19Yeah. You know, reasonably nice quality.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Spent £58 on all of it.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24£58. Really?
0:32:24 > 0:32:28Shows how reasonable things are out there.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30- And they're all in good nick? - All in good nick.- OK, fine.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33And then we've gone from one extreme to the other.
0:32:33 > 0:32:37Uber-chic in suburban homes, to this thing.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39Retro in modern homes.
0:32:39 > 0:32:43- Where's it come from?- I'm led to believe it's off a railway.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47- Oh, really. 100mph. Really. That's the business. - Racing girls, you see.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49There you go. And modernism is everything,
0:32:49 > 0:32:53- and funky collectables are everything, so how much?- Cost me 70.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56OK. Well, I'm going to take a punt on how to make my prediction,
0:32:56 > 0:32:59and I'm going to ditch the boring green glasses
0:32:59 > 0:33:02- and I'm going with the 100mph sign.- Oh!- Brilliant.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05Anyway, next, we're off somewhere completely different.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08We're going to the Museum of Childhood, where we are going
0:33:08 > 0:33:10to have a look at some teaching aids.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24Today I'm at the V&A's Museum of Childhood,
0:33:24 > 0:33:26here in Bethnal Green.
0:33:26 > 0:33:32It was opened in 1872, and from the outset has proved to be
0:33:32 > 0:33:36a valuable part of the area's educational system.
0:33:38 > 0:33:42Having originally opened as the Bethnal Green Museum,
0:33:42 > 0:33:45it was buildings like this one that suggested
0:33:45 > 0:33:49a world of the unknown to both adults and children alike.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53The idea that people could improve their education by visiting museums
0:33:53 > 0:33:57and galleries in their leisure time became extremely popular.
0:33:58 > 0:34:03In 1974 the museum finally found its identity,
0:34:03 > 0:34:06and reopened as the Museum of Childhood.
0:34:06 > 0:34:11There are literally thousands of artefacts here, which illustrate
0:34:11 > 0:34:15the way that children played and lived
0:34:15 > 0:34:17over the last 400 years.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21But right now, I'm going to piece together some of those
0:34:21 > 0:34:25childhood favourites from the 18th-century,
0:34:25 > 0:34:29and to do that, I'm going to visit the museum's basement store.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41So, what has dragged me into the bowels,
0:34:41 > 0:34:45the storage area underneath the museum?
0:34:45 > 0:34:50Well, to start off with, it's this rather unprepossessing
0:34:50 > 0:34:52mahogany cabinet on stand,
0:34:52 > 0:34:54that dates from the 1760s
0:34:54 > 0:34:59but on the face of it is a pretty standard issue.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02Open up the doors.
0:35:02 > 0:35:06And revealed are a number of drawers.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10The clue lies in the label pasted on the door inside.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14"Cabinet belonging to Lady Charlotte Finch,
0:35:14 > 0:35:16"sister to Lady Penn,
0:35:16 > 0:35:20"governess to the children of George III."
0:35:20 > 0:35:24Oh, this is where it starts to get interesting.
0:35:24 > 0:35:28George III, the longest reigning monarch of the 18th-century,
0:35:28 > 0:35:33is associated directly with this cabinet.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35And what did it contain?
0:35:35 > 0:35:39It contained a whole group of jigsaws,
0:35:39 > 0:35:42except they weren't called "jigsaws" in the 18th century.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46These were called dissected maps.
0:35:46 > 0:35:51The label says, "It was the invention of dissecting maps,
0:35:51 > 0:35:56"and these in the cabinet were expressly made for,
0:35:56 > 0:36:01"and always used in, the teaching of geography to George IV
0:36:01 > 0:36:04"and his brothers and sisters."
0:36:04 > 0:36:06How about that?
0:36:06 > 0:36:10And this is how Africa looked to a cartographer in the middle
0:36:10 > 0:36:12of the 18th century.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15This particular one was produced by a Frenchman, and the bits
0:36:15 > 0:36:18they didn't know anything about are inscribed,
0:36:18 > 0:36:21"Pais inconnu."
0:36:21 > 0:36:25"Unknown lands." Isn't that extraordinary?
0:36:25 > 0:36:28What is the survival of puzzles of this type?
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Very, very small.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35What is the survival of a Royal dissected puzzle case,
0:36:35 > 0:36:39complete with its puzzles? I mean, it's unheard of.
0:36:39 > 0:36:44Now, it came up for sale at auction, five or so years ago.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47What do you think it realised?
0:36:47 > 0:36:50£20,000? £50,000?
0:36:50 > 0:36:53Or £100,000?
0:36:53 > 0:36:55Now, there's a puzzle for you?
0:36:56 > 0:36:59Stay with me because I'll tell you in a moment.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01Scrolling forward into the 19th century,
0:37:01 > 0:37:07this early Victorian puzzle shows the chronological order of kings and
0:37:07 > 0:37:12queens of Britain, finishing with the young Victoria at the bottom.
0:37:12 > 0:37:14As the century progressed,
0:37:14 > 0:37:18so the technology allowed the cutting
0:37:18 > 0:37:23out from layered plywood, jigsaw puzzles as we know
0:37:23 > 0:37:26them today. Here's a good example, look.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Showing the Royal Family before the Second World War.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33We've got George VI, look, with his two daughters,
0:37:33 > 0:37:38including Queen Elizabeth II on her favourite pony.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41But if you wanted to do a really difficult puzzle,
0:37:41 > 0:37:44you might have a go at this one.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48Produced by Raphael Tuck and Co.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52It's of a type that Raphael Tuck described as a zag-zaw.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Zag-zaw puzzles are more complicated
0:37:55 > 0:37:58and of course to make it more difficult,
0:37:58 > 0:38:01Raphael Tuck didn't provide the picture
0:38:01 > 0:38:04for you to use to make up the puzzle.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08Almost as tough as the puzzle I put to you just now.
0:38:08 > 0:38:14Did that royal puzzle cabinet make £20,000, £50,000 or £100,000?
0:38:14 > 0:38:17You'd be right if you said...
0:38:17 > 0:38:22£100,000. Actually, it was sold for £120,000.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24And the final question today?
0:38:24 > 0:38:27Well, how are our teams going to puzzle out
0:38:27 > 0:38:30how to make a profit over at the auction?
0:38:45 > 0:38:50Well, we've crossed the county line from Derbyshire to Staffordshire
0:38:50 > 0:38:53and we've come to Lichfield to be with Richard Winterton.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55- Richard, great to be in your sale room.- Fantastic.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57- Pleased to have you. - Very nice, too.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Now, the Reds have gone with the silver counter bell,
0:39:00 > 0:39:02which has to be one of the most miserable silver counter bells
0:39:02 > 0:39:06- I think I've ever seen. - I quite liked it.- Oh, did you?
0:39:06 > 0:39:10- We've got £40-£50. - It's not got silver on the top.
0:39:10 > 0:39:14- To me, it's a £20 note on a good day with a wind up its tail.- Oh, dear.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15But it clearly rings your bell.
0:39:15 > 0:39:19Now, the Poole Pottery. I know you're very fond of these
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Uranium orange and yellow splodgey. You like those, don't you?
0:39:22 > 0:39:24Dreadful things, aren't they?
0:39:24 > 0:39:26- What's your estimate?- £30-£50.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29I had a horrible feeling you were going to say that. £80 was paid.
0:39:29 > 0:39:31- That is tough, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:39:31 > 0:39:35Now we pop off to what was the USSR.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38- It looks like a bit of tourist market stuff to me.- It does.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41It took a bit of debate, actually, to get the date - how old
0:39:41 > 0:39:44we think it is. Personally, I don't think it's particularly very old,
0:39:44 > 0:39:46but I have a team of experts and they're all looking at it
0:39:46 > 0:39:49and they think the enamel has been rubbed quite a bit
0:39:49 > 0:39:51and don't be put off just because
0:39:51 > 0:39:54the back of it looks as clean as though it was made yesterday.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57- We've got £40-£50.- £55 they paid.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59So, that's pretty well spot-on.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02Overall, though, I fancy there could be some trouble here,
0:40:02 > 0:40:06in which case they're going to need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09- Well, how exciting is this, right? - Very exciting.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12We have got that many bonus buys here for you,
0:40:12 > 0:40:14you're going to be spoiled for choice.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16First off, we have the leftover lolly,
0:40:16 > 0:40:21this is the team's bonus buy leftover lolly, which was £140.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Being the studious types that you are,
0:40:23 > 0:40:26- study this chap.- Oh, my word. - I remember that.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28- You recognise him, don't you? - Oh, yeah.- We saw this at the fair.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32- Do you like him?- I don't like him. - I do, because he's a toby jug
0:40:32 > 0:40:35- and I'm a Toby, so I am happy with him.- I paid £40 for that.
0:40:35 > 0:40:39- That's not too bad, actually.- It's all right.- It's all right, you know?
0:40:39 > 0:40:41That is a Victorian one, it's not an early one.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44It's not a modern reproduction from Taiwan, that's the point,
0:40:44 > 0:40:48so it's got its degree of age, so thanks for that. That's brilliant.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50And did you ask him how much it's going to bring?
0:40:50 > 0:40:54- Could make £60-£80. - That wouldn't be too bad.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57What does the auctioneer think about this team's bonus buy?
0:40:59 > 0:41:02So, Richard, there's the team's bonus buy.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Yeah, it's a bit of fun, isn't it?
0:41:04 > 0:41:07- It dates from the end of the 19th century.- It does, yeah.
0:41:07 > 0:41:09- So what's your estimate on that? - We've gone £50-£80.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11OK, well, that's brilliant.
0:41:11 > 0:41:15Time to see what the Reds think about their Tim's Ton item.
0:41:16 > 0:41:20OK. Now we come to the special moment, which is Tim's Ton.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23You were given £100 to go and find something that you really rate.
0:41:23 > 0:41:27- So we'd like to see what that is, please.- He doesn't look confident.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29I'm not convinced I invested your ton wisely, Tim.
0:41:29 > 0:41:33I might actually have wasted it, but you never know.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Now, when I bought these, I thought
0:41:35 > 0:41:38"Good, a nice pair of 19th-century
0:41:38 > 0:41:41"Japanese-Chinese export ware chargers."
0:41:41 > 0:41:44They might actually be into the 20th century,
0:41:44 > 0:41:47but they're decorative, they're a pair and they're not damaged.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Loosely, this stuff's called Famille Noire.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Because the colour scheme's basically black.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53It may have had a stencil design
0:41:53 > 0:41:55and then the hand enamelling around a stencil design.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58- Cos these aren't terribly old, are they, Nick?- No, no.
0:41:58 > 0:42:03- And how much did you pay for them? - Well, out of Tim's Ton, I blew 80.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06- 80 quid?- Not each, for the pair. - £40 each.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08And how much do you reckon we're going to get for these?
0:42:08 > 0:42:10- Oh, a good 80.- Now come on, Nick,
0:42:10 > 0:42:12they could make £100, they could make £150.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15"Could" is the primary word there, isn't it?
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Have a think about it. You don't pick right now, you pick later.
0:42:18 > 0:42:22'Now what does the auctioneer think about Tim's Ton?'
0:42:22 > 0:42:25- How do you rate those? - We've gone £40-£50.
0:42:25 > 0:42:26It looks very...
0:42:27 > 0:42:30- ..tacky, doesn't it? - Slightly Chinese restaurant to me.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32Yes, that's what I meant, yeah, tacky.
0:42:32 > 0:42:37Could be dating from the 1950s or 1960s, that sort of period.
0:42:37 > 0:42:42- OK, well, you're £40-£50... - Yeah.- Nick, he paid £80.
0:42:42 > 0:42:47So the team, if they decide to go with Tim's Ton bonus buy,
0:42:47 > 0:42:49could be in a bit of a difficulty.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51I had to make a prediction.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54My prediction was that the profit potential
0:42:54 > 0:42:57was better on the Toby jug than it was on the plates, so we'll see.
0:42:57 > 0:43:00Now for the Blues.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03We've got a golf club bar brooch.
0:43:03 > 0:43:07- It's in nine-carat gold.- Yeah. - Many golfers around these parts?
0:43:07 > 0:43:09We have quite a few.
0:43:09 > 0:43:11I'm not a golfer myself, but we certainly have quite a few
0:43:11 > 0:43:13and there's a bit of a following for it.
0:43:13 > 0:43:18It's nice that it is nine carat and £30-£50 all day long.
0:43:18 > 0:43:23- OK, £35 paid.- That's OK. - I think they did well with that.
0:43:23 > 0:43:25OK, and then you've got the salts.
0:43:25 > 0:43:28And we see hundreds of them. £20-£30.
0:43:28 > 0:43:33That all? They paid 50. OK, well, there we go, then.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37Lastly, is the ribbed, cranberry lemonade jug.
0:43:37 > 0:43:40- We were doing so well. - We were, won't we?- Yeah.
0:43:40 > 0:43:45Stevens and Williams is the factory that is normally associated
0:43:45 > 0:43:49with this ribbed stuff. But I'm not so sure it's a lemonade jug.
0:43:49 > 0:43:52To me, it hasn't got the quality of that, either.
0:43:52 > 0:43:55I don't think it's a lemonade jug. I think it's just water jug.
0:43:55 > 0:43:57- Just a jug.- Just a jug. - £40-£50- Have you?
0:43:57 > 0:43:59Yeah, and I think probably overcooked it.
0:43:59 > 0:44:04OK, well, I have to say £122 was paid for that. And I can't see it.
0:44:04 > 0:44:05They were doing so well.
0:44:05 > 0:44:08- Well, they weren't doing that well, actually.- No, well...
0:44:08 > 0:44:12Thinking about the salts, which you just dissed at £20-£30.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15No, but we're not far away and I think they might make a profit
0:44:15 > 0:44:17on the others, but they've completely ruined it.
0:44:17 > 0:44:20- I think you'll be lucky if you get £40 for that water jug.- I agree.
0:44:20 > 0:44:23So, on that basis, they're absolutely torpedoed
0:44:23 > 0:44:26and it's just as well they're going to have the choice
0:44:26 > 0:44:29of two bonus buys. Let's go and have a look at them.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34We'll start off, JP, please, with the team's bonus buy.
0:44:34 > 0:44:36Well, as a couple of teachers,
0:44:36 > 0:44:38I'm sure you get a lot of stress from all your students.
0:44:38 > 0:44:41So I thought what more could you want than...
0:44:41 > 0:44:46- something to entertain yourselves with in the evening.- You mean have a drink?- Have a drink. Have a tipple.
0:44:46 > 0:44:48This is basically a decanter and six glasses
0:44:48 > 0:44:52that are made in clear glass, they're dipped into a green glass
0:44:52 > 0:44:56and then they are cut through. But we've got this lovely decanter, sort of mallet shape with a stopper.
0:44:56 > 0:44:59Always have to check. There's a little nibble on the bottom,
0:44:59 > 0:45:02but that's not bad, because normally there are chips
0:45:02 > 0:45:04all around the rim, because they have too much to drink
0:45:04 > 0:45:07and then they can see the hole and they just go and whack it in!
0:45:07 > 0:45:09- Are you on about teachers?- Yes!
0:45:09 > 0:45:14- It's nice quality. - What do you think, Sue?
0:45:14 > 0:45:17- Yes...- You like?- Erm...
0:45:17 > 0:45:20- Not much.- Not really my cup of tea, but...- No, you don't put tea in it.
0:45:20 > 0:45:25- Julie, what do you think?- I'm not struck on green, I have to say.
0:45:25 > 0:45:28I'd bet you get two bottles in there.
0:45:28 > 0:45:32- A bottle and a half to two bottles, actually.- The thing is...
0:45:32 > 0:45:34clear glass decanters, they're not selling terribly well,
0:45:34 > 0:45:36cos people don't use spirits like they used to.
0:45:36 > 0:45:39What you've got here is the novelty of a colour, plus six glasses.
0:45:39 > 0:45:41And the six glasses are in good nick, are they?
0:45:41 > 0:45:44- Yeah, they're in good nick. - How much do you think?
0:45:44 > 0:45:48- You gave me £93.- Right, yeah. - I spent £58.
0:45:48 > 0:45:51- Right.- I think an auctioneer will say £40-£60, £50-£80.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53I think we're on the cusp of a profit
0:45:53 > 0:45:56and it might prove us a good one.
0:45:56 > 0:46:01But what does the auctioneer think about the Blues' team bonus buy?
0:46:01 > 0:46:06Six wine glasses like that and the green-flashed decanter.
0:46:06 > 0:46:11OK. Look good in a cabinet with a bit of light behind it. It's OK.
0:46:11 > 0:46:13- They'll do OK.- Like how OK?
0:46:13 > 0:46:17- £50-£80, something like that. - £58 paid.- That's OK.
0:46:17 > 0:46:19Yeah, yeah, yeah. Half a chance.
0:46:19 > 0:46:21Jonathan's done pretty well with that.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24What do the Blues make of their Tim's Ton item?
0:46:26 > 0:46:29JP's been entrusted with 100 extra pounds, Tim's Ton,
0:46:29 > 0:46:31to find the extra bonus buy.
0:46:31 > 0:46:34Come and have a look, quickly, while he does his reveal.
0:46:34 > 0:46:36I was given £100 and what did I buy?
0:46:38 > 0:46:40How about that?
0:46:40 > 0:46:42Now, it caught my eye, because again it's a novelty.
0:46:42 > 0:46:46It was sold to me as a railway sign for 100mph.
0:46:46 > 0:46:49That may be questionable, but the idea of it being from the railways
0:46:49 > 0:46:52adds interest and value, let's hope.
0:46:52 > 0:46:55- I think it's British. - I'm hoping it's British, yeah.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58How much did you pay for our big sign?
0:46:58 > 0:47:00Well, I didn't pay £100,
0:47:00 > 0:47:02- I paid £70.- 70?
0:47:02 > 0:47:08Now, what does the auctioneer think about the Blues' Tim's Ton?
0:47:08 > 0:47:11It's the 100 mile an hour sign,
0:47:11 > 0:47:13presumably from a railway line.
0:47:13 > 0:47:17Some railway signs, I can see it, but when it's just got "100"
0:47:17 > 0:47:19- it doesn't do it for me. - So how much?
0:47:19 > 0:47:23- £30, £30-£40.- £30-£40. OK, fine.
0:47:23 > 0:47:25Well, we're in a contention here,
0:47:25 > 0:47:28because I was asked to make my prediction as to which
0:47:28 > 0:47:31one I thought would do better and I opted for the railway sign.
0:47:31 > 0:47:33You think there's plenty of people out there
0:47:33 > 0:47:36- who want to put a sign like that in their kitchen?- Yeah.
0:47:36 > 0:47:39Why not? Anyway, I've made my punt.
0:47:39 > 0:47:42I think that'll do better than this glass set,
0:47:42 > 0:47:46but, now you've described it, I'm not so sure you might not be right.
0:47:46 > 0:47:49Anyway, I've made my prediction. That's exciting, isn't it?
0:47:49 > 0:47:51We'll see what happens at the auction.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58Now, Toby, Charlie, happy?
0:47:58 > 0:48:01- Ish.- What do you mean, "ish"? - Well, ish.
0:48:01 > 0:48:04- I don't know what's going to happen. - Nor do we.- Well, there we go.
0:48:04 > 0:48:06- Don't worry about that.- Nerves, Tim, nerves.- Is that what it is?
0:48:06 > 0:48:07We've got this in the bag.
0:48:07 > 0:48:10Now we go to lot 932,
0:48:10 > 0:48:14little miniature counter bell. There it is, lot 932.
0:48:14 > 0:48:16Nothing on mind, so maybe going to be £20.
0:48:16 > 0:48:20£20, £10 to start me. £10 at the back, £10.
0:48:20 > 0:48:23£12. £15, £18...
0:48:23 > 0:48:27- Yes, yes.- £20 at the very back. - Uh-oh.- £30 in the room.
0:48:27 > 0:48:31- Yes, come on.- Room's at 30. Room's at 30, the back at 30.
0:48:31 > 0:48:35- 35 in the room.- Yes, here we go. - 35, 40 in the room.- Yes, here we go!
0:48:35 > 0:48:3845 in the room. 50 in the room.
0:48:38 > 0:48:4150 in the back, at 50, in the room at 50...
0:48:41 > 0:48:44All done, sold at £50.
0:48:44 > 0:48:49Yes! You've doubled your money. Doubled your money, plus 25. Lovely.
0:48:49 > 0:48:51- We're doing it.- Now, Paul.
0:48:51 > 0:48:54Lot 933, a lot of interest, actually.
0:48:54 > 0:48:57I'm starting at 40, I've got 50, I've got £60.
0:48:57 > 0:49:00£60 I'm bid. £70.
0:49:00 > 0:49:03£70 I'm bid. Internet at £70.
0:49:03 > 0:49:04Internet at 70.
0:49:04 > 0:49:10- Internet at 70, room's out, we are sold at £70.- You're having a laugh.
0:49:10 > 0:49:12I never liked that stuff.
0:49:12 > 0:49:15£70 is minus £10, miserable.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18Plus 15, you are. Now, here we go. Here comes the icon.
0:49:18 > 0:49:21Again, quite a lot of interest.
0:49:21 > 0:49:24I have nine bids, a lot of it, all over it.
0:49:24 > 0:49:29I'm 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100.
0:49:29 > 0:49:32- Get away!- 100 I am bid, 100.
0:49:32 > 0:49:36Top of all the bids at 100. At 100... 110, the internet.
0:49:36 > 0:49:41110, the internet, 120, the internet. 120, the internet.
0:49:41 > 0:49:45120, the internet. 120, all finished then...
0:49:45 > 0:49:47Sold at 120.
0:49:47 > 0:49:51- You are a genius.- Nice one.- £120.
0:49:51 > 0:49:545 off 60, that is plus 65, yeah?
0:49:54 > 0:49:5665, 75 plus £80.
0:49:56 > 0:49:58Just like that, it's like falling off a log, isn't it?
0:49:58 > 0:50:00- That's given us a pub round.- £80.
0:50:00 > 0:50:04You only spent £160 and you've made £80 profit, how good is that, Toby?
0:50:04 > 0:50:06- Yeah, oh, yes.- Oh, yes.
0:50:06 > 0:50:09Now, what are you going to do about these bonus buys?
0:50:09 > 0:50:11You've got £80 in the bank.
0:50:11 > 0:50:14You can either go with one bonus buy, the team bonus buy,
0:50:14 > 0:50:16- which is the Toby Jug... - Can we call a friend?- No.
0:50:16 > 0:50:20..or you can go with Tim's Ton which is those Famille Rose plates...
0:50:20 > 0:50:23- No.- ..or you can do nothing. - Let's go for the Toby Jugs.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25- Shall we just do it? - Why not just keep your money?
0:50:25 > 0:50:28- What if we lose everything? - No, you won't!
0:50:28 > 0:50:32You can't, because it only costs 40 and you've got £80 in the bank.
0:50:32 > 0:50:35- Come on, Tim, tell us what to do. - Listen, I can't tell you.
0:50:35 > 0:50:38You've got one lot to go and you've got to make a decision.
0:50:38 > 0:50:41- Are you going with the bonus buy or not?- OK, fine, do it. Oh, God.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44- Toby, are you doing with Toby or not?- All right, then.
0:50:44 > 0:50:47- OK, you're going with Toby. You're going with Toby?- Yeah.- Yeah, OK.
0:50:47 > 0:50:49OK, they're going to have a punt on Toby.
0:50:49 > 0:50:52They're going to go with the team's bonus buy and here it comes.
0:50:52 > 0:50:57The Toby Jug. Nothing on my book, they're going to be 50...40...£20.
0:50:57 > 0:51:00£20 to start me. £20. £20, £10?
0:51:01 > 0:51:04£10, I've got you, sir. £10 I'm bid.
0:51:04 > 0:51:06- £10 I'm bid.- Oh, no.
0:51:06 > 0:51:11Far left at £10. £12. £15.
0:51:11 > 0:51:15- I don't like the look of this. - £15 on my left, at 15. 15, 15...
0:51:15 > 0:51:17It's in the room at 15. Everything is out.
0:51:17 > 0:51:22We're having to sell it and sold at £15.
0:51:22 > 0:51:25£15? That is minus £25.
0:51:27 > 0:51:31Now, you didn't go with the Tim's Ton... Hey!
0:51:31 > 0:51:33You didn't go with the Tim's Ton bonus buy but we're going
0:51:33 > 0:51:36to sell it anyway, and let's see if we can make a profit on this.
0:51:36 > 0:51:37WE don't get it, do we?
0:51:37 > 0:51:41£60 a bid, £60, £60.
0:51:41 > 0:51:45£60 I'm bid. All done, sold at 60.
0:51:48 > 0:51:49Well, by £5.
0:51:49 > 0:51:52£60, that made a loss of £20, all right?
0:51:52 > 0:51:55So there was no profits with these bonus buys at all.
0:51:55 > 0:52:01Overall, guys, you are plus £55. You're in profit for £55.
0:52:01 > 0:52:03That could be a winning score.
0:52:03 > 0:52:06- Don't say a word to the Blues, all right, lads?- All right.
0:52:11 > 0:52:16OK, Jules, Sue. Are you feeling incredibly crushed with nerves?

0:53:24 > 0:53:27- Sold at 45.- Oh...
0:53:27 > 0:53:33Honeybunch, 45 is minus 5. You're absolutely nowhere.
0:53:33 > 0:53:37At this stage in the game, no profit, no loss. Another jug.
0:53:37 > 0:53:40There's the jug. There you're going to be £20...

0:53:55 > 0:53:59£30 on my left, sold at 30. Thank you, sir.
0:53:59 > 0:54:02That's minus £92, chickens.
0:54:02 > 0:54:04They have come home to roost.
0:54:04 > 0:54:08- Oh, never mind.- OK, you're minus 92. Let's be positive now.
0:54:08 > 0:54:09What about these bonus buys?
0:54:09 > 0:54:12You can't have both of them, you don't have to have either of them.
0:54:12 > 0:54:16What are you going to do? Are you going with the decanter and glasses
0:54:16 > 0:54:20or might you go with the railway sign, or might you go with neither?
0:54:20 > 0:54:22Well, we'll have to go with one.
0:54:22 > 0:54:24We'll go with the decanter and glasses.
0:54:24 > 0:54:27- He chose green, we'll go green. - We'll go green.- We'll go green.
0:54:27 > 0:54:28You're going to go?
0:54:28 > 0:54:31- We'll go green.- You're going to do it? Team bonus buy, then?
0:54:31 > 0:54:33- We'll stick together.- OK, then.
0:54:33 > 0:54:35They're going with the decanter and glasses
0:54:35 > 0:54:38and rejecting the speed sign.
0:54:38 > 0:54:40Well, now you've made your decision,
0:54:40 > 0:54:42I can tell you that his estimate on the glasses
0:54:42 > 0:54:45is £50-£80 and you paid £58.
0:54:45 > 0:54:48So on the face of it, girls, you've made the right decision.
0:54:49 > 0:54:53The sign that you've rejected Jay paid £70 for
0:54:53 > 0:54:55and his estimate is £30-£40.
0:54:55 > 0:54:58So all the money is with the decanters
0:54:58 > 0:55:01and it seems you have done the right thing.
0:55:01 > 0:55:04Anyway, let's find out, because here they come.
0:55:04 > 0:55:06The green glass decanter and the six matching wine.
0:55:06 > 0:55:10A lot for your money, where are you going to be? 50, 40, £20.
0:55:10 > 0:55:14Nothing on my book, £20. £10 to start me.
0:55:14 > 0:55:17£10 to start me, £10.
0:55:17 > 0:55:21£15, £20, £25.
0:55:21 > 0:55:22£30.
0:55:22 > 0:55:24£30, the internet. £30, £30...
0:55:24 > 0:55:28- Come on.- I'm not liking this. - Internet at £30.
0:55:28 > 0:55:31Internet at £30. All finished now, the internet...
0:55:31 > 0:55:33Sold at 30.
0:55:33 > 0:55:40Minus £28, that is minus £120 is your overall score.
0:55:40 > 0:55:42That's good, isn't it?
0:55:42 > 0:55:45Now, we're going to sell the speed sign and here it comes.
0:55:45 > 0:55:49£25. £30 on the internet.
0:55:49 > 0:55:51£30 on the internet, 35.
0:55:53 > 0:55:55£40 on the internet.
0:55:55 > 0:55:59- £40 on the internet at £40. - We're getting up to speed here.
0:55:59 > 0:56:03- At £40 on the internet. £40 on the internet, they're all out...- Uh-oh.
0:56:03 > 0:56:05A red load, isn't it, near enough.
0:56:05 > 0:56:10Not fast enough. £40 is minus £30.
0:56:10 > 0:56:12Anyway, you didn't go with that joker.
0:56:12 > 0:56:17You achieved less loss by going with the decanters,
0:56:17 > 0:56:20so you did the right thing, girls. Overall, you are minus £120.
0:56:20 > 0:56:22Some you win, some you don't.
0:56:22 > 0:56:26- We still love you, Jamie, we still love you.- I hope so.- Well, I know.
0:56:26 > 0:56:27It's good fun, isn't it?
0:56:27 > 0:56:30Now, don't say a word to those brutish boys, all right?
0:56:30 > 0:56:34- No, we won't.- Because we want them to think that they're still teachers' pet.
0:56:40 > 0:56:44Well, what about this, eh? Teachers versus students.
0:56:45 > 0:56:49- You been chatting between yourselves at all?- No.- No? Not at all.
0:56:49 > 0:56:50No chats...
0:56:50 > 0:56:52Well, there is a chasm between the teams today
0:56:52 > 0:56:58- and I regret to say that the teachers are the runners up.- Ah!
0:56:59 > 0:57:02Unfortunately, by a combination of bad luck,
0:57:02 > 0:57:07- £120 you are down the drain.- Oh, my giddy aunt.
0:57:07 > 0:57:10- We went down in style. - You certainly did.
0:57:10 > 0:57:13Apart from your golf club bar brooch,
0:57:13 > 0:57:17which did produce a small profit, I'm afraid there was nothing doing.
0:57:17 > 0:57:21I made a prediction which I thought the railway sign would bring
0:57:21 > 0:57:24the biggest proportion of profit and I was completely wrong,
0:57:24 > 0:57:27so nothing to be proud of there.
0:57:27 > 0:57:30In fact, neither of the bonus buys did any good, but not to worry.
0:57:30 > 0:57:32- Did you have a good time? - Great time.- Lovely.
0:57:32 > 0:57:34We've loved having you on the show
0:57:34 > 0:57:37- but the boys have done incredibly well, the students.- Or the lads.
0:57:37 > 0:57:43- And the lads. £55 profit, there you go, £55...- That's all right.
0:57:43 > 0:57:46..principally made up with your great victory with the Russian icon,
0:57:46 > 0:57:49- which was seriously good, wasn't it?- Oh, yes.
0:57:49 > 0:57:53The miniature bell did brilliantly, so well done for that.
0:57:53 > 0:57:57When it comes to predicting proportions of profits
0:57:57 > 0:58:02or losses, I'm glad to say that the snuff taking bonus buy did not
0:58:02 > 0:58:06fulfil its potential in my prediction. Anyway, so there we go.
0:58:06 > 0:58:09- Have you had a good time? - Great time.- Oh, great time.
0:58:09 > 0:58:10It has been super.
0:58:10 > 0:58:14In fact, so much fun, join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?
0:58:14 > 0:58:16Oh, yeah!
