Today on Bargain Hunt, the ever-darkening sky is the limit

0:00:040:00:09

for our teams of skydivers and pilots.

0:00:090:00:13

We're almost ready for takeoff, so...

0:00:130:00:16

Let's go bargain hunting, yeah.

0:00:160:00:18

As we know on Bargain Hunt,

0:00:440:00:47

profits can go down as well as up.

0:00:470:00:50

And there is no time more appropriate for this to be

0:00:500:00:54

said than today, on our one-hour special.

0:00:540:00:57

So, let's take a sneaky peek at what's coming up.

0:00:570:01:01

It's up, up and away for our pilot Reds.

0:01:030:01:06

-Is this newish, though, is it?

-It is. What's that?

0:01:060:01:09

-Look what we've got here.

-Oh, no. Not again. I don't believe it.

0:01:090:01:13

And our skydiving Blues give their expert the run-around.

0:01:130:01:17

Tell you what could kick in, that "wood for the trees" panic.

0:01:170:01:21

-Oh, no, there's so much.

-It's happening right now.

0:01:210:01:23

But who will take the ultimate prize at auction?

0:01:230:01:26

62, 65, 68...

0:01:260:01:29

I'm flying high, I'm flying high.

0:01:290:01:30

Yes!

0:01:330:01:34

Let's meet today's teams.

0:01:360:01:38

On today's programme, excitingly, we have pilots,

0:01:400:01:43

Malcolm and Gregory, for the Reds.

0:01:430:01:46

And for the Blues, we have married couple, Lena and Joey, who are...

0:01:460:01:51

-What are you?

-BOTH: Skydivers.

-Skydivers!

0:01:510:01:54

Excellent. Hello, everyone.

0:01:540:01:56

Very nice to see you.

0:01:560:01:57

-Malcolm, you run a flying school.

-I do.

-How did you get into that?

0:01:570:02:01

I started off trying to just play with hang gliders

0:02:010:02:04

when I was in the air force, then, someone said, "Why don't you

0:02:040:02:07

-"become an instructor?"

-And you set up your own school?

0:02:070:02:10

-Set my own school up.

-And have you had any scary moments when flying?

0:02:100:02:14

Well, I have once. I asked a student how much fuel we've got left, he told me.

0:02:140:02:19

20 minutes later I asked him again, he told me the same number.

0:02:190:02:22

I looked down and... We run on a sight gauge, where the actual fuel sits in a glass tube.

0:02:220:02:27

He was watching a stain.

0:02:270:02:30

And then about 10 minutes later, on the way back, all went very quiet.

0:02:300:02:33

You can glide down though, can't you?

0:02:330:02:35

You can glide, so I let him do half a landing, then I took over.

0:02:350:02:38

How embarrassing. But anyway, it finished safely, that's the main thing.

0:02:380:02:42

Now, Greg, you're also a flying instructor.

0:02:420:02:44

I am a flying instructor. I've got a school at Sandtoft

0:02:440:02:47

and I go down to Darley Moor and also down south to do a bit of instructing.

0:02:470:02:51

And imparting the knowledge to every newcomer must be fun too?

0:02:510:02:55

It is fun, it's definitely exciting when they're trying to kill you all the time.

0:02:550:02:59

You also work as a check pilot, how does that work? How does that figure?

0:02:590:03:02

Every year, an aircraft has its MOT

0:03:020:03:04

and then somebody has to jump in it and make sure it's safe to fly.

0:03:040:03:08

Well, that's my job, I take it to its limitations, a bank angle,

0:03:080:03:12

and also as fast as it needs to go, so there is a velocity you

0:03:120:03:15

never exceed and I have to take it to its velocity...

0:03:150:03:18

Well, that's pretty hairy, isn't it?

0:03:180:03:20

Well, I hope you're very well paid for that work. Actually...

0:03:200:03:22

-Totally voluntary, yeah.

-Oh, is it?

0:03:220:03:26

Anyway. I think you two are going to make an excellent team.

0:03:260:03:28

You're clearly extremely well disciplined

0:03:280:03:31

and we look forward to the result. Anyway, good luck with that.

0:03:310:03:34

Now, more hairy stuff, actually.

0:03:340:03:36

-Lena, skydiving is how you two met.

-Yes, it is.

-Isn't that fun?

0:03:360:03:40

We met in Portugal, 1998, in Evora, for a World Cup competition

0:03:400:03:45

and Joey was the cute, little American guy,

0:03:450:03:47

and that's where we met.

0:03:470:03:48

And we both won the competition, so it was very successful.

0:03:480:03:52

-Well, what a nice way to meet your man, anyway.

-We worked out the rest.

0:03:520:03:57

Through this sporting link. Now, you work as a massage therapist

0:03:570:04:00

-and you're also a daredevil.

-A little bit.

0:04:000:04:03

So, what do you get up to?

0:04:030:04:05

Well, skydiving started when I was 17 years old, which is

0:04:050:04:08

a long time ago.

0:04:080:04:10

Then I got into a little bit of base jumping, jumping off cliffs.

0:04:100:04:14

Presumably always with a parachute?

0:04:140:04:16

Always with a parachute, it's highly recommended,

0:04:160:04:19

always with a parachute. For sure.

0:04:190:04:21

Joey, what is your involvement in skydiving?

0:04:210:04:24

Well, that's pretty much all I'm involved in.

0:04:240:04:26

I started skydiving in 1989,

0:04:260:04:28

while I was serving in the United States Marine Corps.

0:04:280:04:30

I got out of the Marine Corps after the first Gulf War.

0:04:300:04:33

I tried to go to college, but I shortly moved to the airport

0:04:330:04:37

and I haven't left. That was 16,000 jumps...

0:04:370:04:40

I have won five world gold medals

0:04:400:04:43

and, between all the different disciplines,

0:04:430:04:45

I have won the US Nationals 18 times over the last 10 years.

0:04:450:04:49

Good lord, that's quite something, isn't it?

0:04:490:04:52

It's no wonder you've never moved out of the airport.

0:04:520:04:55

What sort of things do think you might be buying to make a profit today?

0:04:550:04:58

I don't think that we're going to buy very expensive things...

0:04:580:05:01

I like retro stuff.

0:05:010:05:03

You like retro stuff, you're going to buy cheap things.

0:05:030:05:05

-Spend as little as possible...

-BOTH: The Golden Gavel.

0:05:050:05:08

Oh, the Golden Gavel. If we can get that, it would be awesome.

0:05:080:05:11

-I'll put it next to my world meet model.

-Really?

0:05:110:05:14

To go with all your other trophies.

0:05:140:05:16

Well, we don't shell out Golden Gavels that often,

0:05:160:05:18

I have to tell you. So, that's a good ambition.

0:05:180:05:20

Anyway, now the money moment. £300 apiece, you have your £300.

0:05:200:05:24

You know your rules, your experts await and off you go.

0:05:240:05:28

And very, very, very good luck. Stand by for takeoff.

0:05:280:05:32

So, as we take to the fair,

0:05:320:05:33

our teams will be piloted by two class acts.

0:05:330:05:36

Rocking and rolling with the Reds is Charles Hanson.

0:05:380:05:41

And orchestrating the Blues' shopping experience is antique

0:05:420:05:46

classicist, Paul Laidlaw.

0:05:460:05:47

OK, wing men, are you ready for takeoff?

0:05:510:05:54

-Definitely, all ready for it.

-OK, flaps down?

0:05:540:05:57

Flap's down, chocks away.

0:05:570:05:59

Chocks away. But what's the plan? What are we after today?

0:05:590:06:01

Well, for me, I like shiny and I'm going to go for something...aviation.

0:06:010:06:05

We've had a bit of strategy, it's summertime, garden stuff, maybe.

0:06:050:06:08

-Yeah.

-Maybe some, you know, kitschy...

0:06:080:06:11

-Hipster stuff.

-Maybe some glass.

0:06:110:06:13

Something with a car in, or aeroplane, or a motorbike,

0:06:130:06:16

and maybe something shiny as well, because we're always suckers for shiny stuff.

0:06:160:06:20

-I like your style. Follow me, OK?

-Let's do it.

0:06:200:06:23

I've got to say, just one little warning, you guys jump out of perfectly good aircraft...

0:06:230:06:27

-There is no such thing.

-For fun!

0:06:270:06:29

I don't think the adrenaline level is going to be quite as high,

0:06:290:06:32

buying antiques.

0:06:320:06:34

That said, if, with one minute to go,

0:06:340:06:36

we've still got to buy something, prepare for the kicking...

0:06:360:06:39

-Come on.

-Let's go.

0:06:390:06:41

OK, teams, you're cleared for takeoff.

0:06:410:06:43

Your 60 minutes starts now.

0:06:430:06:45

I vote we go...

0:06:490:06:51

-To where the sun is?

-We'll go where you go.

-Oh, get on with it, chaps.

0:06:510:06:54

Let's go this way, yeah. Let's do something in the marquee over here.

0:06:540:06:57

Right, they're off.

0:06:570:06:59

Carlos and the Reds veer off the runway

0:06:590:07:01

and the Blues jump straight into the goodies on offer.

0:07:010:07:04

Ah, this is really hard.

0:07:040:07:06

Don't be... I tell you what can kick in, that "wood for the trees" panic.

0:07:070:07:10

-The sort of, "Oh, no, there's so much!"

-It's happening right now.

0:07:100:07:14

Just chill.

0:07:140:07:15

Don't panic, Lena.

0:07:150:07:17

Paul's right, you've got plenty of time.

0:07:170:07:20

So, Malcolm, ornaments, your sort of thing?

0:07:200:07:22

Not china at all, no, it's got to be metal or wood.

0:07:220:07:26

-Definitely metal or wood.

-Fine, OK.

0:07:260:07:28

No to china, but yes to metal or wood. Nice and clear, eh, Carlos?

0:07:280:07:33

-Look at that...

-No.

0:07:330:07:35

This is what I would tend to call... Well, the mark on the back is for

0:07:350:07:38

-Meissen. Have you heard of Meissen?

-I haven't heard of Meissen.

-You haven't heard of Meissen.

0:07:380:07:42

It's nice to handle good things, to get a feel for what we're doing.

0:07:420:07:45

-£1,300.

-£1,300?

0:07:450:07:48

How much?

0:07:480:07:49

But, just to get you in the mood, gents.

0:07:490:07:51

We start from the top, you know, we fly high

0:07:510:07:53

and then we fly low, but that's a good start.

0:07:530:07:56

Hey, we don't want anyone flying low on this show, Carlos.

0:07:560:07:58

I'm scared to touch it now.

0:07:580:08:00

Huh. You don't need to, Malcolm, you can't afford it anyway.

0:08:000:08:03

So, go and find something you can buy.

0:08:030:08:05

-Are the Blues being more sensible?

-95...

-Goodness gracious.

0:08:050:08:09

-That's crazy.

-Portmeirion Pottery, it's happening.

0:08:090:08:12

But it's maybe enough money for us at auction.

0:08:120:08:15

At auction, they make about £50 or £60. It's good spot.

0:08:150:08:18

-You've got to speculate to accumulate, Lena.

-12...

0:08:180:08:22

-This is our price range, baby.

-12? Yeah, that's true.

0:08:220:08:26

But not with THAT, thank you.

0:08:260:08:27

-I've seen something I like, Malcolm.

-Have you? It's shiny.

0:08:290:08:32

That.

0:08:320:08:33

-Be good for covering up... bread loaf.

-Wow!

0:08:340:08:37

Oh, no. Do you know, that's shiny and...aviation interest as well.

0:08:370:08:43

There's twin engines as well, that's pretty good.

0:08:430:08:45

-Has it got twin engines?

-Yeah, twin engines.

-Is it a jet?

0:08:450:08:48

I think that's going to be a jet, 1960s-1970s.

0:08:480:08:51

And, of course, it's chrome plated. What's it purpose?

0:08:510:08:55

-Salt and pepper pot.

-Absolutely.

0:08:550:08:56

What you check for, gents, first and foremost, are the blue liners.

0:08:560:09:00

You can see the blue coming through, absolutely.

0:09:000:09:02

They are hopefully in good condition. The enamel label on here would suggest to me it was a little

0:09:020:09:07

souvenir you could have bought from Windsor,

0:09:070:09:09

perhaps back in the 1960s, '50s.

0:09:090:09:13

And you know, gents, it's novel and today, what the

0:09:130:09:15

antique market and collectors like are novel items. What a find.

0:09:150:09:20

-Well, it just shouted at me.

-I can imagine, Malcolm.

-It just called.

0:09:200:09:24

Off you go, Malcolm. Chase that final call.

0:09:240:09:26

How much would you take for it, though?

0:09:260:09:28

-What's on it?

-It's £28. 24.

0:09:300:09:33

Would you take 20?

0:09:330:09:35

-I'll play the game and take 22.

-What about 21?

0:09:350:09:38

-21, so we're not getting it at ours and you're not quite getting it at yours.

-Go on, then.

0:09:380:09:42

-21.

-Shake her hand.

-Thank you very much.

-Wow, well played.

0:09:420:09:46

-We've got something.

-Well played.

0:09:460:09:48

I feel like cabin crew here, you know,

0:09:480:09:50

just sort of watching my pilots drive me.

0:09:500:09:53

Well, you're definitely flying high now, Carlos.

0:09:530:09:56

Well done, Reds, that's the first item

0:09:560:09:59

to tuck into your hand luggage.

0:09:590:10:01

-But what are the Blues diving into?

-That's kind of a kitschy...

-Oh!

0:10:010:10:04

Oh, I kind of like that, actually.

0:10:040:10:07

What period do you think it is...

0:10:070:10:10

About '60s-'70s piece, or later? '60s.

0:10:100:10:12

-There was a lid on the bottom as well.

-It must have been rewired, then.

0:10:120:10:17

-Yeah, well, that's always...

-You think it's period?

0:10:170:10:20

I kind of like it. Yeah, I'd buy it for myself.

0:10:200:10:24

Excuse me, let me just...

0:10:240:10:27

-Would you live with that, guys?

-How much was it?

0:10:270:10:29

-If you clean that up...

-It's 60, eh? Mm. That's a little hefty.

0:10:290:10:34

You put that in the right sale, I think that's a good buy.

0:10:340:10:37

Put it in a general country sale, they could all go...

0:10:370:10:40

-I can give you a good deal on it.

-It would probably have to be crazy...

0:10:410:10:45

45.

0:10:450:10:47

-I was thinking more like 25....

-Yeah, 28? I'd go to 28.

0:10:470:10:51

Could we move it in a city sale... I would take a punt.

0:10:510:10:55

Could it be 20 quid, easy money? He's going...

0:10:550:10:59

-22? 20.

-25.

0:10:590:11:03

-25, it's...

-24.

-24.

-24 to give us a chance of selling it...

0:11:030:11:08

Your guy's a machine, it's like machine-gun fire.

0:11:080:11:11

All right, go for it.

0:11:110:11:13

You've got a deal, folks, you've done it.

0:11:130:11:17

Thank you very much, sir.

0:11:170:11:19

Thank you. Thank you very much.

0:11:190:11:21

I'll take the luck.

0:11:210:11:23

We liked it.

0:11:230:11:25

Yes, I do like it a lot.

0:11:250:11:26

And with that, the Blues make their first purchase.

0:11:260:11:29

It's now one-all, and the Reds still seem fascinated with aviation.

0:11:290:11:34

-Look, a little helicopter.

-Is this newish, though, is it?

0:11:340:11:37

It is, that would be 1970s. And look, there's you, Malcolm and me.

0:11:370:11:42

There's your cabin crew, that's me. There's your cabin crew.

0:11:430:11:46

Yeah, maybe it's time to do the trolley service, then, Carlos.

0:11:460:11:49

-Oh, I like the price on this one.

-What have you got here?

0:11:500:11:53

-What is this, is this a lamp?

-It's a lampshade, isn't it?

0:11:530:11:57

I think we need to dream a little bigger than a lampshade...

0:11:570:12:00

I agree, Paul, I think you need to work on how much Lena

0:12:010:12:04

is willing to spend.

0:12:040:12:06

-Look out, here we go again.

-What's that?

-Look what we've got here.

0:12:080:12:11

-Oh, no. Not again. I don't believe this.

-Do the propellers spin?

0:12:110:12:16

-It's a table lighter.

-It's a table lighter.

-Yeah. And it's chrome plated.

0:12:160:12:20

-1950s-60s.

-What's the price on it?

0:12:200:12:23

It doesn't have a price.

0:12:230:12:24

-The best price, £80.

-£80...

0:12:240:12:27

That model is very, very rare. You won't see another one.

0:12:290:12:32

We like rarity, but it's important to remember

0:12:320:12:35

that in a fairly collective sale, it might just struggle.

0:12:350:12:37

-Yeah, I think we'll get 10 quid for that.

-I'd pay more for that.

0:12:370:12:40

But there's one more thing over here I've seen.

0:12:400:12:42

Put that down, let me just show you over here really quickly.

0:12:420:12:45

Well, we'll go with the expert.

0:12:450:12:46

-Because I just saw this hanging fire...

-Oh, that is nice.

0:12:460:12:51

Look at that, this is boxed as well.

0:12:510:12:53

It's all complete, although you've got a few tears on the box edging,

0:12:530:12:58

but the actual little fighter is in good condition.

0:12:580:13:01

-What's your best price?

-What's on it?

-That's £13.

0:13:010:13:06

-65, 65 is on it.

-35.

0:13:060:13:09

Oh, my goodness me. 35.

0:13:090:13:12

-Shall we do it? Let's do it.

-Yeah, let's do that.

-Are you sure... Yes?

0:13:120:13:16

Let's do it. And then we can look for something non-aviation and more...

0:13:160:13:21

This is our aviation hour, right? And that's two down, one to go.

0:13:210:13:25

Shake the man's hand. £35, you're a good man, sir. We'll take it.

0:13:250:13:29

Thanks a lot, thank you very much.

0:13:290:13:32

I quite like it.

0:13:320:13:34

Well done, chaps, that's the second purchase checked in.

0:13:340:13:36

Meanwhile, I feel the Blues are finding the shopping tough.

0:13:360:13:41

Halfway through this exercise now, yeah.

0:13:410:13:44

We need to find something in the next 10 minutes, leaving us

0:13:440:13:47

-a third of the time...all right?

-Yeah, yeah. We need to...

0:13:470:13:50

We need to buy something.

0:13:500:13:52

You do. It's time to start being decisive, team.

0:13:520:13:56

Right, something to get your temperature rising, take a peek at what I found here.

0:13:560:14:01

This is rather fun, isn't it?

0:14:010:14:03

Just imagine how much work is involved in decorating

0:14:030:14:08

the frame of a thermometer like this.

0:14:080:14:11

What we've got here is a bit of Victorian nonsense.

0:14:110:14:15

It dates from between about 1840 and 1880,

0:14:150:14:20

and whilst everybody says that pietra dura,

0:14:200:14:23

hard stone inlaid work,

0:14:230:14:25

all comes from Italy, is absolutely wrong.

0:14:250:14:28

Because here, in Britain, in Derbyshire, based around

0:14:280:14:31

Ashbourne, we have our very own

0:14:310:14:34

hard stone inlaying businesses.

0:14:340:14:37

Each of the decorative elements inlaid into the black is

0:14:370:14:41

a different coloured stone,

0:14:410:14:43

which means that the black has to be carved out and then

0:14:430:14:48

individual little pieces of stone inlaid to complete the picture.

0:14:480:14:52

And this is a complicated bit of inlay, believe you me.

0:14:520:14:56

Each of the leaves have got several colours

0:14:560:14:59

and the several colours are represented by different stones.

0:14:590:15:02

The leaves are connected by stems and fronds,

0:15:020:15:05

and then we've got the odd flower, like this white jasmine, look.

0:15:050:15:10

And even that's got a red stone in the centre.

0:15:100:15:14

And across the top,

0:15:140:15:15

a spray of delicious smelling lily of the valley.

0:15:150:15:19

These elements contain the focal point, which is a scale, engraved

0:15:190:15:25

in Fahrenheit, upon which is placed a little mercury thermometer.

0:15:250:15:30

Not to be outdone, the angular plinth is also inlaid,

0:15:300:15:33

this time with a lovely dog rose, look.

0:15:330:15:36

Pale pink and some buds, and a sort of malachite stem.

0:15:360:15:41

Gorgeous.

0:15:410:15:42

The Derbyshire craftsperson who created this put it together,

0:15:420:15:46

because this back slab is one piece

0:15:460:15:50

and then we have a horizontal bead

0:15:500:15:52

and then the angular bit, and then a plinth, and then some block feet.

0:15:520:15:56

So, there are about six elements which have been riveted and jointed.

0:15:560:15:59

And hasn't this survived most beautifully?

0:15:590:16:02

What I like about it is that it will appeal to all sorts.

0:16:020:16:05

On the one hand, some people hate Victorian fussiness.

0:16:050:16:09

Well, the design of this thing is really quite modern.

0:16:090:16:12

It's clean in terms of its design and lines,

0:16:120:16:16

no twiddly Victorian bits.

0:16:160:16:18

But on the other hand, it's extremely complicated,

0:16:180:16:22

because the inlay is far from straightforward.

0:16:220:16:26

And visually, it can do nothing but intrigue.

0:16:260:16:29

The next bit of intrigue is, what's it worth?

0:16:290:16:32

Well, you could buy it for £220.

0:16:320:16:36

Is that expensive? I don't think so.

0:16:360:16:39

You try and do that inlay for £220.

0:16:390:16:43

Back to the shopping and both teams are feeling the heat.

0:16:440:16:47

It's two-one to the Reds,

0:16:470:16:49

so the Blues are really feeling the pressure.

0:16:490:16:52

Medina paperweights, that's collectable glass.

0:16:520:16:55

Which one, those two there?

0:16:550:16:56

The sea horses? Kind of like them.

0:16:560:16:58

-Want to go ask?

-Let's ask.

-Go ask.

0:16:580:17:01

I couldn't find a price on this one.

0:17:010:17:03

-The pair for 20.

-The pair for 20?

0:17:050:17:07

All right, I'll bring them back. Thank you.

0:17:070:17:09

-They'll do the pair for 20.

-The pair for 20, huh?

0:17:090:17:13

-You're not going to get rich on it.

-No?

0:17:130:17:15

You're not going to get overly burnt.

0:17:150:17:17

-Should we just put them down?

-Put them down and keep an eye on them.

0:17:170:17:19

-We can always get them later.

-One on the side is always useful.

0:17:190:17:23

-We need something silver.

-We need something!

0:17:240:17:27

I have my eyes on this vase over here.

0:17:300:17:32

-This one here.

-I like the colour.

0:17:320:17:35

Back to Germany, aren't we? 1960s, West German.

0:17:350:17:39

There'll be numbers on the bottom usually, there you go.

0:17:390:17:43

Oh, you've got a manufacturer, they seldom make their mark.

0:17:430:17:47

-West Germany and it's by, looks like, Scheurich.

-Scheurich Ceramic.

0:17:470:17:51

Yeah...and a shape number.

0:17:510:17:53

Couple of wee chips where it went down heavy.

0:17:530:17:57

Mmmm, not helpful but not you could forgive it. Is it dear?

0:17:570:18:01

No...I think we could get it for 14.

0:18:010:18:04

To be honest with you, I get that.

0:18:040:18:06

I'm not a massive fan of these West German studio ceramics

0:18:060:18:10

but I appreciate the market for them.

0:18:100:18:12

Books are starting to be written,

0:18:120:18:14

this is the future of collecting, one side of it.

0:18:140:18:16

This one, I've got to say, I like more than most.

0:18:160:18:19

I like the combinations,

0:18:190:18:20

the glazes and more than anything these little swirls are fantastic!

0:18:200:18:23

They're really dynamic, aren't they?

0:18:230:18:25

I do like the pattern and the colour, for sure!

0:18:250:18:27

I like the pattern and the colours.

0:18:270:18:29

I've got to say, it would go tremendously well next to your lamp.

0:18:290:18:32

There's a pattern developing.

0:18:320:18:34

I get it.

0:18:340:18:36

Shall we go check out what we can do?

0:18:360:18:38

Can we haggle with you over your pot or not?

0:18:380:18:40

Very slightly, yes.

0:18:400:18:42

I get that, I get that. I hear you.

0:18:420:18:44

Can we be brutal, the three of us like it and it's difficult

0:18:440:18:47

-to tempt me with such pieces, so you've got something.

-Right, OK.

0:18:470:18:50

-Can I say there's a little chip to the foot.

-A little bit.

0:18:500:18:52

-There's a couple of chips there at the bottom.

-Help us.

0:18:520:18:56

-It's on at 20.

-Which I don't think is bad.

0:18:560:19:00

Absolute best, 15.

0:19:000:19:02

I think that's a good price. I'm just going to wade in and say,

0:19:020:19:06

I think it's a good price.

0:19:060:19:08

We would ask for 14, so we have a chance to get the 15 at auction.

0:19:080:19:11

-Ooooh!

-We're trying to get our Golden Gavel!

0:19:110:19:15

-You know how they go.

-You'll get 35 at auction.

0:19:150:19:18

We might do, I hope you're right.

0:19:180:19:20

-Yeah, we'll do it.

-We'll do it.

0:19:200:19:23

Brilliant! Thanks for that.

0:19:230:19:25

-Thank you.

-Thank you very much.

0:19:250:19:27

Thank you.

0:19:270:19:30

Guys, you did it and you know how you did it?

0:19:300:19:32

You followed your taste.

0:19:320:19:34

-The lamp, this, you see the pattern developing?

-We do.

0:19:340:19:37

Instinct and I'll tell you what, two good things.

0:19:370:19:40

Well done, guys, and miraculously, pretty much on schedule.

0:19:400:19:44

I was starting to get a little bit of panic there

0:19:440:19:47

but I guess we're all right.

0:19:470:19:48

Well done, Blues, second buy in the bag for £15.

0:19:480:19:51

Both teams are now looking for their final purchase

0:19:510:19:54

and finally the Reds are looking at a non-aircraft related item.

0:19:540:19:59

Hooray!

0:19:590:20:00

Aren't these nice, guys?

0:20:000:20:02

The market's so buoyant today for Persian, Indian, Chinese,

0:20:020:20:05

Eastern silverware and they just, to me, are quite attractive.

0:20:050:20:10

-Like them?

-Personally, no.

-No? Fine.

0:20:100:20:14

Co-pilot?

0:20:140:20:15

-No.

-OK.

-It's a bit boring.

0:20:150:20:17

That's OK, cabin crew, sit down, put them back

0:20:170:20:20

and enjoy the flight, thanks.

0:20:200:20:23

Where are the emergency exits?

0:20:230:20:25

You crashed and burned with those, Charles.

0:20:250:20:28

-I like that table.

-You're crazy!

0:20:280:20:31

Now I'm panicking.

0:20:310:20:32

Has anyone got a brown paper bag that I can breathe into?

0:20:320:20:35

Hey, it's not that bad, Paul.

0:20:350:20:37

You're crazy, baby, you're crazy!

0:20:370:20:40

Well, maybe you're right.

0:20:400:20:42

Huh, your thoughts, Paul?

0:20:420:20:43

Do you know, I think for people that jump out of perfectly good

0:20:430:20:46

aeroplanes for kicks, I think they're fazed by this!

0:20:460:20:49

I'll tell you, see when they pull that ripcord,

0:20:490:20:52

I hope they're more decisive than this!

0:20:520:20:55

Time is fast moving on and Charles is trying to rally his troops.

0:20:550:21:00

Gents, we've only got ten minutes to go.

0:21:000:21:03

OK, ten minutes, one of my great loves is pottery and one thing

0:21:030:21:07

I like is that big plate over there.

0:21:070:21:10

-Do you like it, first of all?

-I think that's quite nice.

0:21:100:21:12

Big, chunky plate, let me tell you about it.

0:21:120:21:15

I love this because this was made in around 1760.

0:21:150:21:18

So, when you talk hands-on history you just imagine what hands

0:21:180:21:23

have taken, have passed, have caressed this plate

0:21:230:21:26

from the time when King George III came on the throne.

0:21:260:21:30

And it's earthenware body with a white opaque tin glaze

0:21:300:21:34

almost deceived the British public that what was being

0:21:340:21:38

made in London was in fact porcelain, ie

0:21:380:21:42

copying the Chinese, when in fact all it is is a crude

0:21:420:21:45

earthenware, which over the time you can see will chip and crack.

0:21:450:21:48

And I just love that plate.

0:21:480:21:50

Why do I like it so much? Because it's a big one.

0:21:500:21:54

Probably 14 inches.

0:21:540:21:56

This has been a wall object for a long time, do you reckon?

0:21:560:21:58

Yeah. I mean, to some people,

0:21:580:22:00

these metal mounts that you can take off can obviously damage the rim

0:22:000:22:04

by chipping away at the tin glaze because it's a very fragile body.

0:22:040:22:08

But the design captures the passion

0:22:080:22:11

we had as Europeans for the mystical land of the Far East.

0:22:110:22:16

Because we didn't know it.

0:22:160:22:17

And what are these at the bottom here?

0:22:170:22:20

Could be swans on a lake. I just think it's probably a London piece

0:22:200:22:23

of circa 1760 and if I was putting this into my sale,

0:22:230:22:27

I would guide it between £150-200.

0:22:270:22:30

-Do you like it?

-I like it.

0:22:300:22:31

It's quite nice.

0:22:310:22:33

It's something different, it's different...we want to go with

0:22:330:22:36

-something a little bit bigger this time.

-A bit bigger, yeah.

0:22:360:22:39

I mustn't sway you because you bought two wonderful aviation

0:22:390:22:42

lots but if I was putting my oar in I would go for that.

0:22:420:22:46

-How much would you take for the plate?

-£110.

-110.

0:22:460:22:49

-I think it's wonderful.

-You reckon?

0:22:490:22:51

-Yeah, I do.

-We'll go with the expert.

0:22:510:22:53

I'd be happy to get it at 110 but it's your call, Greg.

0:22:530:22:55

-Can we get a pound off you?

-I'll take a pound off, 109.

0:22:550:22:59

109, that sounds brilliant!

0:22:590:23:01

-And do you like it?

-I think it's fantastic, yeah!

0:23:010:23:03

So, are we going, going, gone?

0:23:030:23:05

-We're going, going, gone!

-Yeah.

-Shake the man's hand.

0:23:050:23:08

-Exactly!

-Don't break it.

0:23:080:23:10

That's it then, three down,

0:23:100:23:12

-three done, no crash landing, congratulations!

-Excellent!

0:23:120:23:15

So, that's it, Reds,

0:23:150:23:17

prepare for landing with your three purchases on board. Well done.

0:23:170:23:21

With only minutes left, the Blues are swimming against the tide,

0:23:210:23:25

but can those dolphin paperweights save them?

0:23:250:23:29

What do you think, Paul?

0:23:290:23:31

My advice is, one of you go back, play it cool and try

0:23:310:23:35

and get them for a tenner because that's what they're worth.

0:23:350:23:38

-All right, see you later.

-Watch out, Lena.

0:23:380:23:40

If you can't them for a tenner, we'll confer when we catch up.

0:23:400:23:44

Run, Lena, run, time's running out.

0:23:440:23:47

-Guys, no?

-No, no, no.

-OK.

0:23:470:23:51

-Are you sure?

-Come on, we've got to hurry.

-All right.

0:23:510:23:55

-We've seen something nicer.

-Go, go, go.

0:23:550:23:57

What time is it?

0:23:570:23:59

58.48.

0:23:590:24:01

Just over a minute on the clock, team. Come on, go, go, go!

0:24:010:24:05

These adrenaline junkies are wearing me out.

0:24:050:24:07

-Sir?

-No, lean up. Before we do anything - do you like it?

0:24:070:24:11

-Oh, yes, it's great. I like it.

-But you've not seen it before.

-No.

0:24:110:24:15

-Are you interested in that?

-I am absolutely interested in it.

0:24:150:24:18

-I like it just because it's a lamp.

-Huh.

0:24:180:24:20

-He's asking £15, what do you reckon, Joey?

-Seven quid.

0:24:200:24:23

Deal?

0:24:230:24:26

-And they've done it!

-Good.

-There we go.

0:24:260:24:28

Ha-ha, time's up!

0:24:280:24:30

You won't be surprised to hear I've not done much skydiving,

0:24:300:24:33

but is it anything like this?

0:24:330:24:35

-No. No, it's nothing like this.

-It's nothing like this.

0:24:350:24:38

Okie-doke, you can keep it. Lena, we better tell you what we've bought.

0:24:380:24:41

-Yes.

-Now, 1930s-1940s, somewhat novel electric table lamp

0:24:410:24:48

and combination clock by Ferranti, who were a huge corporation

0:24:480:24:52

manufacturing instrumentation and so on. It is in oak laminate.

0:24:520:24:57

Will I tell you what I like in particular?

0:24:570:24:59

It's The Roundabout Clock, funnily enough. Absolutely tremendous.

0:24:590:25:03

All patented, good to go...

0:25:030:25:06

That is an uncommon Art Deco object...

0:25:060:25:09

Good find.

0:25:090:25:11

..bought within seconds of the hour.

0:25:110:25:15

-I like it!

-I like it, too.

0:25:150:25:17

-£7. Crazy money.

-Especially since we needed it.

0:25:170:25:20

-I'm just going to go for a lie down, OK?

-I'm right behind you.

0:25:200:25:24

So with three purchases complete,

0:25:240:25:26

the Blues have also finished their shop.

0:25:260:25:29

Let's check out what the Red team bought, eh? Mua-ha-ha...

0:25:290:25:33

Cleared for takeoff, their first purchase was a chrome-plated

0:25:330:25:37

aeroplane cruet set, which cost them £21.

0:25:370:25:40

A dinky die-cast Gloucester javelin fighter plane in original box

0:25:410:25:45

cost them £35.

0:25:450:25:48

Finally, they touched down with this English Delft

0:25:480:25:51

blue and white plate for £109.

0:25:510:25:54

Well, you zipped through that lot, didn't you?

0:25:540:25:57

It wasn't too bad.

0:25:570:25:58

-Was it as exciting as taking off and landing?

-Definitely nearly.

0:25:580:26:01

-Got the adrenaline up there?

-It did.

0:26:010:26:02

-Which is your favourite?

-We've got a little dinky aeroplane.

0:26:020:26:05

-That's your favourite?

-That's my favourite.

-And what about you, Greg?

0:26:050:26:08

-I like the little salt and pepper pot. That's quite nice and useful, so...

-OK.

0:26:080:26:11

-Is that going to bring the biggest profit?

-No.

-What's going to?

0:26:110:26:14

-I think the plate. Well, we took...

-You took the advice. Did you?

0:26:140:26:17

-14 inches, isn't it?

-Yeah.

-We're talking about a plate here, are we?

0:26:170:26:20

-Yes.

-OK, large plate. Very nice.

-1760s, was it? Correct, correct.

0:26:200:26:24

-Well, there we are. And you spent in toto how much?

-165.

-165.

0:26:240:26:28

-I'd like 135 of leftover lolly, please.

-Sure you want it?

0:26:280:26:31

Yes, I do. Definitely. That goes straight over to Charles Hanson.

0:26:310:26:34

That is for you to find the team's bonus buy

0:26:340:26:36

but for our special programme today, I'm going to give you a further

0:26:360:26:39

-£100, Charles Hanson, and this is for Tim's

-Ton. Oh, crikey.

0:26:390:26:43

You have to go off with that extra £100

0:26:430:26:45

-and find an extra bonus buy.

-Spend it wisely.

-Spend it wisely.

0:26:450:26:49

Which Charles always does. Good luck, Charles.

0:26:490:26:51

Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought, eh?

0:26:510:26:54

A 1960s chrome-plated retro standard lamp turned them on for £24.

0:26:540:27:01

Another retro item, it's the Sheric ceramic vase which cost them £15.

0:27:010:27:07

And their last purchase was a mid-20th century Ferranti roundabout

0:27:070:27:11

clock for £7. You left at the last minute, didn't you?

0:27:110:27:16

-We sure did!

-Oh, dear, dear! What do you think this is?

0:27:160:27:18

-Well, we tried to make it exciting.

-Oh, yeah, yeah.

0:27:180:27:20

It's exciting enough and you spent practically nothing,

0:27:200:27:23

-somebody told me. How much did you spend?

-£46.

0:27:230:27:26

That is ridiculous on three items. So I would like 254, please.

0:27:260:27:30

-There you go, Tim.

-254. That is a pile of money.

0:27:300:27:33

-I don't think I've ever had so much leftover lolly handed back.

-Well!

0:27:330:27:37

-Which is your favourite piece?

-Ooh, there's a lamp in there.

-Is there?

0:27:370:27:41

-That's your favourite favourite?

-There's two lamps.

-Two lamps.

0:27:410:27:43

-But the silver lamp.

-The silver lamp is just divine.

0:27:430:27:46

-OK, we'll run with that.

-Yes.

-Thank you.

0:27:460:27:48

-That's your favourite favourite.

-Yes.

-But what's your personal favourite?

-The retro silver lamp.

0:27:480:27:52

-Is that going to bring the biggest profit?

-No.

-No.

0:27:520:27:55

What's going to bring the biggest profit?

0:27:550:27:56

-The roundabout clock.

-The roundabout clock.

-Art Deco.

-OK, fine.

-Yeah.

0:27:560:27:59

Well, with this paltry amount of money spare and a huge amount

0:27:590:28:02

-of leftover lolly, Paul Laidlaw is going to have loads of fun.

-Spend it well.

0:28:020:28:06

And today, most especially, because it's a special programme, an extra

0:28:060:28:10

£100 called Tim's Ton for you to buy that extra bonus buy.

0:28:100:28:14

Good luck, Paul!

0:28:140:28:16

So how's Carlos getting on finding his team bonus buy?

0:28:160:28:20

I quite like this. My gents are pilots, and I'm the sailor boy.

0:28:200:28:24

And here you've got the sailor's farewell and it's just sweet,

0:28:240:28:28

it's innocent, it's celebrating a view of the cast-iron bridge

0:28:280:28:31

at Sunderland when it was opened in 1793.

0:28:310:28:35

It's a real antique with this wonderfully marbled pink lustre

0:28:350:28:39

ground surrounding the scenic views.

0:28:390:28:41

The problem is it's got some damage.

0:28:410:28:43

You've got the staining on the inside but it's just a big lump and I like it.

0:28:430:28:47

The best price the lady can do for this gorgeous jug is £100.

0:28:470:28:51

I know Mark will say, "Charles, what have you bought THAT for?"

0:28:510:28:56

But as a standout object in the sale room, I think it oozes antique class.

0:28:560:29:01

I'm going to buy it, because to me, it's an investment for a collector.

0:29:010:29:05

Well negotiated down from £160.

0:29:050:29:07

Now, how will you do with your Tim's Ton, Charles?

0:29:070:29:10

I think we've got to remember I wanted to keep them

0:29:100:29:13

on the antique footing, ie go really old, go back one or 200 years.

0:29:130:29:19

And objects...wow!

0:29:190:29:20

Like this, which I hope - on inspection, and this one does.

0:29:200:29:25

This object is circa 1775-1790.

0:29:250:29:30

I like this because the corners haven't been chipped.

0:29:300:29:33

-It's in good condition. How much is it?

-165.

0:29:330:29:37

It's a margin in it at £100.

0:29:370:29:40

-It's a hard decision but I'll do it for 100. Yes.

-Really?

-Yes.

-Yeah?

0:29:400:29:45

It's wonderful, £100 for a box that oozes 18th-century pedigree.

0:29:450:29:50

Malcolm and Gregory are men's men

0:29:500:29:52

and I don't think they are going to be particularly taken by the

0:29:520:29:55

colour pink but I'm the pilot and I'll fly them, solo, if need be.

0:29:550:30:00

It's a great box.

0:30:000:30:02

With Charles' work complete,

0:30:020:30:04

how is Paul getting on with his bonus buy shopping?

0:30:040:30:07

Remember, he had £254 of leftover lolly for his team bonus buy.

0:30:070:30:12

So, what are you thinking, Paul?

0:30:120:30:14

Well, Lena and Joy tried in vain to find a piece of glass and indeed,

0:30:150:30:21

almost bought a pair of late 20th century paperweights.

0:30:210:30:26

With their leftover lolly, I have got them an antique piece of glass.

0:30:260:30:30

English, early 19th century what's called a gimmel flask.

0:30:300:30:34

And that's cost me just £25 and I think it will potentially

0:30:340:30:38

blow their minds because they've got no idea what that is.

0:30:380:30:41

£25 paid, I'm going to squeeze some profit out of that for them. Great.

0:30:410:30:44

So, how do you plan to spend your Tim's Ton, Paul?

0:30:440:30:47

If you're an anorak, as indeed I am, you know

0:30:510:30:53

what's in these without opening up the case.

0:30:530:30:55

It's extremely distinctive, particularly these side closing tabs.

0:30:550:30:59

You've seen plenty of binocular cases in your time, they all look the same, don't they?

0:30:590:31:03

Not these. These are Imperial German, these are First World War.

0:31:030:31:06

And indeed, those are what I wanted to find inside.

0:31:060:31:08

And the truth of the matter is, the leather case is rarer than the binoculars.

0:31:080:31:12

I'll tell you what, Joey was in the Marines, Joey's a

0:31:120:31:14

military man and I think he'd get these.

0:31:140:31:17

Wish me luck.

0:31:170:31:18

-How are you doing? I'm hoping to buy the binoculars.

-Erm...

0:31:180:31:25

Yeah, they're all right.

0:31:250:31:26

Erm, if I wanted them for myself, they'd be all right

0:31:260:31:30

-but what would buy them, last sale of the day, maybe?

-£50.

0:31:300:31:34

-£50 works for me, that's magic.

-Cool.

-Great stuff, thank you very much.

0:31:340:31:39

I've got to say, I think that's £50 of Tim's Ton well spent,

0:31:390:31:44

I'm happy with that. I think Joey will like it as well.

0:31:440:31:47

I'll be taking a look at these bonus buys later on in the show.

0:31:470:31:51

Now, time for me to head off to London for a little slice of social history.

0:31:510:31:56

Today, I've come to the Geffrye Museum in London,

0:31:590:32:03

which really is a little oasis within the city.

0:32:030:32:07

It traces the development of the English home across four centuries.

0:32:080:32:16

So, if you want to see the differences in taste, style,

0:32:160:32:21

design and, to a degree, human behaviour,

0:32:210:32:25

this is the place to come and see it.

0:32:250:32:28

The museum in Hoxton today is filled with wonderful objects and

0:32:280:32:33

artefacts, but the building itself was home to many, many people,

0:32:330:32:37

often in desperate need of a roof over their heads,

0:32:370:32:40

they owed a vast debt to a kindly benefactor.

0:32:400:32:44

Robert Geffrye was a wealthy merchant who was

0:32:440:32:47

born in Cornwall in 1613.

0:32:470:32:50

There's something of the Dick Whittington about him though,

0:32:500:32:53

because he came to London to seek his fortune,

0:32:530:32:56

at which he was successful and he also became Lord Mayor of London.

0:32:560:33:01

He also became master of one of the London Guilds,

0:33:010:33:05

the Company of Ironmongers, and Sheriff of London.

0:33:050:33:08

When he died in 1704, he left money to help the poor and needy,

0:33:080:33:13

here, in the East End.

0:33:130:33:14

His bequest bought the land and paid for the building of 14 almshouses,

0:33:140:33:19

each split into four bedsit-type spaces.

0:33:190:33:23

These almshouses were built to provide shelter

0:33:230:33:26

for poor pensioners living in the area and

0:33:260:33:30

when they were completed in 1715, there was great demand for them.

0:33:300:33:36

Just one stipulation though,

0:33:360:33:38

that anybody who lived here had to be of good character.

0:33:380:33:43

Originally, the centrepiece of the building was to be a great hall

0:33:430:33:47

but plans were changed.

0:33:470:33:48

And instead, after a year of the almshouses being open,

0:33:480:33:52

the room was refitted as a chapel.

0:33:520:33:55

Residents were obliged to attend services here each week

0:33:550:33:59

or risk being asked to leave.

0:33:590:34:02

And this is how one of the almshouse rooms would have

0:34:020:34:06

looked around about 1880.

0:34:060:34:08

The occupants at this time were paying a rent, so they went

0:34:090:34:14

completely destitute, but they were that sort of lower middle-class

0:34:140:34:19

type who fell in the limbo between being a master and a servant.

0:34:190:34:25

School mistresses, retired nannies,

0:34:250:34:28

that sort of occupant who ticked the box when it came to being

0:34:280:34:33

of good, sound standing but yet hadn't got an enormous amount of cash.

0:34:330:34:39

They came with their own house furnishings,

0:34:390:34:42

hence what's in this room reflects what a person of that standing

0:34:420:34:46

might have had about them in 1880.

0:34:460:34:50

But everything happened in this room, you did your bit

0:34:500:34:53

of cookery at this hob grate, or, more likely, had food sent into you.

0:34:530:34:59

You slept in this room and you did your ablutions

0:34:590:35:03

in that little closet on the side.

0:35:030:35:05

Well, Robert Geffrye sure knew how to spend his money well.

0:35:070:35:10

The big question today is,

0:35:100:35:12

will our teams' investments hold up well over at the auction?

0:35:120:35:16

Well, we've trotted down to Lincoln Fair today

0:35:280:35:32

and it's a rare treat to be with Colin Young in the saleroom here.

0:35:320:35:36

Thank you very much for having us.

0:35:360:35:38

-No, good to have you back here, Tim.

-Now, Malcolm and Gregory went with the aeroplane cruit.

-Yup.

0:35:380:35:43

It's chromium plated, I suppose it's '60s, '70s, something like that.

0:35:430:35:46

There is not a lot you can say about that, really, is there?

0:35:460:35:48

Will it take off, though?

0:35:480:35:50

-It should do, but I think it's going to be flying fairly low.

-How low?

0:35:500:35:53

-Well, maybe £25-£40.

-OK, that's fair enough.

0:35:530:35:56

£21 they paid, I think you're going to be jolly lucky to get more than £20 for that.

0:35:560:36:00

Now, a Gloster Javelin Dinky toy in its box.

0:36:000:36:03

Good thing, the condition of the paintwork is good.

0:36:030:36:06

The box is not too bad, so, £20-£40 is my estimate.

0:36:060:36:10

There is a bit of a renaissance in Dinky Toys, isn't there?

0:36:100:36:13

Compared to five or ten years ago.

0:36:130:36:15

Yeah, absolutely, I mean, the market for the last

0:36:150:36:17

couple of years has been very, very strong for these.

0:36:170:36:19

You said £20-£30, they paid £35,

0:36:190:36:21

-they might just scrape that, might they?

-Yeah.

0:36:210:36:23

We've got the quintessentially typical

0:36:230:36:26

piece of early 18th century ceramics, the tin-glazed plate.

0:36:260:36:31

Do you think it's English?

0:36:310:36:33

I do actually, yes.

0:36:330:36:34

It doesn't have that look of being continental,

0:36:340:36:36

whether Dutch or otherwise. I think it probably is an English one.

0:36:360:36:40

Date-wise, 1760, 1770.

0:36:400:36:42

Well, Charles Hanson's very, very positive about English ceramics.

0:36:420:36:46

He talks about buying a bit of history and a proper antique

0:36:460:36:49

and all this business.

0:36:490:36:50

How is this tin-glazed plate going to do?

0:36:500:36:53

It's only going to do £80-£120, as it would anywhere else in the country.

0:36:530:36:57

Well, they paid £109, which may be difficult

0:36:570:37:01

and in fact, there are several difficulties in the items they bought,

0:37:010:37:06

in which case, the excitement may come from the bonus buys,

0:37:060:37:10

so, let's go and have a look at them.

0:37:100:37:12

Now, Malcolm, Gregory. This is jolly, isn't it?

0:37:130:37:15

First up is Charles with the team's bonus buy. You gave him £135.

0:37:150:37:20

Charles, what did you find?

0:37:200:37:21

Yeah, and I wanted to fly high for you guys.

0:37:210:37:23

I wanted to really hit those dizzy heights and impress you,

0:37:230:37:26

but instead of air, I went to water

0:37:260:37:29

and bought something with a maritime feel. What do you think, Malcolm?

0:37:290:37:33

Just look at that.

0:37:330:37:34

-I daren't touch it.

-No. Greg, have a handle.

0:37:340:37:36

There we are. This is a wonderful jug.

0:37:360:37:38

It will date to probably around 1800, 1810.

0:37:380:37:42

It's transfer printed and enamelled. It's not in the best of condition.

0:37:420:37:46

-Bit cracked.

-Yeah, it is cracked.

0:37:460:37:48

We like jugs, though, so they're good.

0:37:480:37:50

-It's hideous.

-But look at the marbling of the pink lustre.

0:37:500:37:53

-It's not...

-Not for you?

-Not on my sideboard.

0:37:530:37:57

-OK, well, you need to find out how much he spent.

-It only cost me £100.

0:37:570:38:00

Only?

0:38:000:38:03

Did you say only there?

0:38:030:38:04

OK, well, on that basis, you've got to ask him how much profit it's...

0:38:040:38:10

-How much do you think it'll fly for?

-I don't know yet.

0:38:100:38:13

I don't know. The heart sometimes rules the mind,

0:38:130:38:16

but it might make a bit more than £100, but it might not.

0:38:160:38:19

-So, it's a real gamble, then?

-It's a real gamble, big time

0:38:190:38:21

because I just love it, Malcolm.

0:38:210:38:23

But what does Colin the auctioneer

0:38:230:38:25

think about the Red team's bonus buy?

0:38:250:38:28

OK, now, there we go. What do you think about the Sunderland jug?

0:38:280:38:31

-Well, that's a jug and a half, isn't it?

-Good size.

-Yeah, it is.

0:38:310:38:35

Good thing. You've got this mixture of the transfer printing of all of

0:38:350:38:38

the background and all this sponging and the purple lustre as well.

0:38:380:38:41

Again, very much a trademark from the Sunderland factory.

0:38:410:38:44

A perfect one of these, £150, £200, that sort of range, easily.

0:38:440:38:48

But, we've got a very long crack that covers most of the body.

0:38:480:38:53

-We go inside and there's another crack.

-Yeah, I'm feeling depressed.

0:38:530:38:56

All's not lost, though. We do have an estimate on it.

0:38:560:38:58

-Oh, do you? Oh, good. Now, encourage me.

-£30 to £50, Tim.

0:38:580:39:02

-Oh, I'm feeling depressed again.

-Oh, why?

-Well, Charles paid £100.

0:39:020:39:06

To wit, you're estimating £30 to £50.

0:39:060:39:09

Now, time to see what the Reds think about Carlos' Tim's Ton purchase.

0:39:090:39:14

You had £100. Reveal all.

0:39:150:39:18

People sometimes call these Battersea,

0:39:180:39:20

but we call them Bilston, and this is pink, Malcolm.

0:39:200:39:23

You've got an obsession for pink, haven't you?

0:39:230:39:26

Well, this, Greg, is a very nice Bilston enamel

0:39:260:39:29

Wolverhampton, West Midland-made patch box, or even snuff box,

0:39:290:39:34

and you open it up like so, and it's just full of 18th-century charm.

0:39:340:39:38

There's pompadour pink grounds, inspired by the French.

0:39:380:39:41

This box would date to around 1780,

0:39:410:39:44

and the reason I like this box is because condition is important

0:39:440:39:49

with enamel on copper and this box is in amazing condition.

0:39:490:39:53

-It's quite heavy.

-It suits you. Yeah, do you like it?

0:39:530:39:56

-I don't like the colour, but I do like boxes.

-Good.

-How much?

0:39:560:39:59

Yeah, how much do you reckon this is worth?

0:39:590:40:01

How much did he spend?

0:40:010:40:03

-£100.

-£100.

-It cost me £100.

-How much do you reckon it's worth?

0:40:030:40:06

It could very easily, hand on heart, make £50,

0:40:060:40:10

but sometimes you've got to rejoice at the antique.

0:40:100:40:13

-And would it be a ladies' snuffbox?

-Well, ladies did take snuff, yes.

0:40:130:40:17

Yes, I'd have thought so.

0:40:170:40:18

But also the gentlemen were rather more in touch

0:40:180:40:21

with their feminine side, I think.

0:40:210:40:23

The dandy of the day, you see?

0:40:230:40:24

And he would perfectly happily think that pink is divine

0:40:240:40:27

and would wear the most outrageous clothes.

0:40:270:40:30

I mean, he'd wear a waistcoat and a bow-tie.

0:40:300:40:32

And pink trousers and all the rest of it, and he would not give

0:40:340:40:38

a monkey's what anybody thought about this strutting around.

0:40:380:40:41

He'd have multicoloured glasses and different coloured strings

0:40:410:40:44

and all that kind of thing, and that would just be it.

0:40:440:40:46

So, do you want to buy this?

0:40:460:40:48

You are a salesman, Gregoire. Anyway, we happy, team? Yes?

0:40:490:40:53

-Very happy.

-Happy with that? You've got the lowdown.

0:40:530:40:56

Right. What does Colin think about the Reds' Tim's Ton?

0:40:560:41:00

Of course, for this special programme, there's Tim's Ton,

0:41:000:41:02

that's the £100 extra bonus buy, and that's what Charles found

0:41:020:41:07

to spend the £100 on, and he did spend the whole of the £100.

0:41:070:41:12

It doesn't quite look £100 to me, but I suppose as estimate of

0:41:120:41:16

£50 to £80 would be appropriate on that, and can he get his £100 back?

0:41:160:41:20

-Yeah, I think anything's possible.

-OK, fine.

0:41:200:41:22

Well, I had to make my prediction

0:41:220:41:24

as to which I thought was going to make, in proportion,

0:41:240:41:27

the biggest profit, and as they're both £100,

0:41:270:41:30

it's not difficult to do the proportional bit,

0:41:300:41:32

and I went with the enamel box, cos it is in good condition

0:41:320:41:36

and I don't things that have got cracks and all the rest of it.

0:41:360:41:39

And I sincerely hope that that will bring between £100 and £150

0:41:390:41:42

and then we'll feel well and truly vindicated in this little game.

0:41:420:41:46

Anyway, that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.

0:41:460:41:50

First up is the retro chromium plated standard lamp

0:41:500:41:54

which takes you back to a groovy age.

0:41:540:41:57

-Circa 1967, I would imagine.

-You reckon?

0:41:570:41:59

I have to say, I do quite like it.

0:41:590:42:02

A modern flat could take it perfectly well.

0:42:020:42:04

I think it still works in modern design as well.

0:42:040:42:06

OK, and how much do they want them, Colin?

0:42:060:42:08

I think £30 to £50 would be an appropriate estimate.

0:42:080:42:11

Very good, cos it was bought for £24 retail, so that's good.

0:42:110:42:14

-That's not bad.

-Next is this West German vase. Do you like that?

0:42:140:42:19

Not a lot, it has to be said.

0:42:190:42:20

I don't think I've ever seen one of them go through and make a profit.

0:42:200:42:24

-No, well, it's all down to a price point, really.

-Yeah.

0:42:240:42:27

£15 was the price point for this.

0:42:270:42:29

I must admit, I just get the feeling

0:42:290:42:31

that this type of ware is maybe a little bit over-hyped

0:42:310:42:33

as to its desirability

0:42:330:42:35

-and then when you come to sales, the reality soon hits.

-OK.

0:42:350:42:39

So, what's the realistic estimate?

0:42:390:42:40

I've put £10 to £20, because that's

0:42:400:42:42

our lowest estimate that we can publish.

0:42:420:42:44

Well, on that basis, we won't prod any more.

0:42:440:42:46

And, last of all, we've got the Ferranti roundabout clock.

0:42:460:42:49

-I like that.

-You like it?

-I do, it's a lot better than the previous lot.

0:42:490:42:53

OK, fine.

0:42:530:42:54

Nice little bit of oak, nice design by Ferranti, so £25 to £40.

0:42:540:42:58

Very good, well, Paul Laidlaw found that and he paid £7.

0:42:580:43:01

I don't think they're going to make any large losses,

0:43:010:43:05

in which case they may not need their bonus buys,

0:43:050:43:07

but let's go and have a look at them anyway, shall we?

0:43:070:43:10

'Oh, and Lena has a new look.'

0:43:110:43:13

Now, Jerry, Lena, this is exciting.

0:43:130:43:16

Double bonus buy time.

0:43:160:43:18

First is the team's bonus buy. You only spent £46.

0:43:180:43:22

You gave Paul Laidlaw £254 to spend. So, Paul, what did you buy?

0:43:220:43:28

-This...

-Oh, my God.

-Wow.

0:43:290:43:32

-I love it.

-You love?

-Yeah, we were looking for glass.

0:43:320:43:35

I don't know what it is.

0:43:350:43:36

It's like, are you going to drink out of both things?

0:43:360:43:40

Well, they're termed gimmel flasks,

0:43:400:43:43

and in this instance we have a double gimmel flask.

0:43:430:43:46

The trail decoration is associated with Nailsea at Bristol.

0:43:460:43:50

Date-wise, well, what we didn't buy when we went out was an antique.

0:43:500:43:54

-Yeah.

-You didn't buy much, actually.

0:43:540:43:56

I've solved that problem because we've now got an antique,

0:43:580:44:00

-because that will date to the second quarter of the 19th-century.

-Wow.

0:44:000:44:04

-If I told you it was £25...

-Oh, I love you.

-Which is crazy money...

0:44:040:44:10

And I love this. Let's check it out. You really bought it for £25?

0:44:100:44:14

-That was £25.

-So, what would they use this for?

0:44:140:44:17

I'm trying to figure out what to do with that. The shape and...

0:44:170:44:20

I don't get it.

0:44:200:44:22

This is a pretty object to buy as a gift.

0:44:220:44:25

-Therein, you would have cordials, liqueurs...

-We can use it as a vase.

0:44:250:44:30

-Two flowers.

-You could use it as a vase, why not? I mean, there you go.

0:44:300:44:34

You can use it for whatever you like, and for £25, it's £25.

0:44:340:44:38

What do you think it's going to make?

0:44:380:44:39

Even if it is market, that should be £30 to £50 worth,

0:44:390:44:41

so you could double your money on that.

0:44:410:44:43

-Yeah.

-All right.

0:44:430:44:45

Now, Colin. Do you like the Blue team's bonus buy?

0:44:450:44:48

So, Colin. The team's bonus buy is the Nailsea double flask.

0:44:490:44:53

-Do you like that?

-I do. That's rather nice.

0:44:530:44:57

19th-century. Condition looks to be pretty good all the way through.

0:44:570:45:01

I think in that sort of condition, we've got to be £50 to £80 for it.

0:45:010:45:04

Oh, brilliant.

0:45:040:45:05

Man, £25 paid, so, if the team go with the team's bonus buy,

0:45:050:45:08

they'll do rather well.

0:45:080:45:10

Time to see what the Blues make of their Tim's Ton.

0:45:100:45:14

-This one's for you.

-Oh.

0:45:140:45:16

Now...

0:45:170:45:19

-Pretty uninspiring, perhaps.

-Spectacles?

-But, getting there.

0:45:190:45:24

-Military?

-Military, definitely.

0:45:240:45:25

This is First World War, German, and these are Fernglas 08,

0:45:250:45:29

one of the standard army issue binoculars used by imperial

0:45:290:45:33

German forces during the First World War.

0:45:330:45:35

The binoculars are reasonably common. These turn up.

0:45:350:45:38

Cases do not, because, of course, this is perishable. They rot.

0:45:380:45:41

-That's the right case for it.

-This is, well, there you have it.

0:45:410:45:44

All the instructions for use.

0:45:440:45:46

-Wow.

-Yeah.

0:45:460:45:47

And made by Carl Zeiss of Vienna, pre-eminent, to this day,

0:45:470:45:52

manufacturers of lenses and optical equipment.

0:45:520:45:54

-So, give us the lowdown, then.

-I spent half of the budget.

0:45:540:45:57

-That cost me £50.

-OK.

0:45:570:46:00

I've seen those north of £80 at auction when they're in a good case.

0:46:000:46:05

-I think you should be in safe territory.

-Wow.

0:46:050:46:08

I didn't like it at first, to be perfectly honest, like,

0:46:080:46:10

"Oh, my God. What is it?" But, now, after hearing the story, I'm like,

0:46:100:46:13

"All right, then. That's all good."

0:46:130:46:16

And what does our lovely auctioneer think of this Tim's Ton?

0:46:160:46:20

As you might expect,

0:46:200:46:21

Paul Laidlaw has gone with a World War I collectible, the binoculars.

0:46:210:46:25

How do you rate those, Colin?

0:46:250:46:27

I think, in that sort of condition, original case,

0:46:270:46:30

that's got on be a good £30 to £50, I would've thought.

0:46:300:46:33

OK, well, £50 paid by the Laidlaw,

0:46:330:46:35

and I'm my prediction as to which is going to be Wonnacott's winner,

0:46:350:46:39

which of these two might do better than the other, I've trusted Paul.

0:46:390:46:44

I think that if there's something special about these glasses,

0:46:440:46:47

then that's why he's gone with them, and therefore,

0:46:470:46:50

even though I know nothing about World War I field glasses,

0:46:500:46:54

I'm supporting my man. I'm going with the man not the ball.

0:46:540:46:57

-All right?

-Yup.

-Can you see a profit?

0:46:570:46:59

-I can, I can see a profit right in the horizon.

-Can you?

0:46:590:47:02

-Yeah, I think you'll be fine.

-Oh, do you? Well, that's nice.

0:47:020:47:05

You always were a visionary, Colin.

0:47:050:47:07

Now, time to put that vision to the test.

0:47:080:47:11

Malcolm, Gregory, how you feeling?

0:47:140:47:16

-Hmm.

-Feeling cool?

-Feeling cool, yeah, that's not too bad.

0:47:160:47:19

-All right, fine.

-I'm feeling like miracles can happen today.

0:47:190:47:22

-OK, you've got that miracle moment?

-Yeah.

-We're going to need it.

0:47:220:47:24

Well, we want you to be flying high with this, so,

0:47:240:47:27

the aeroplane cruet set, he's put £25 to £40 on it.

0:47:270:47:31

You paid £21, so he's predicting a profit.

0:47:310:47:33

Which is cool. And here we go.

0:47:330:47:35

Chrome-plated aeroplane cruet set this time,

0:47:350:47:38

lot of commission bids on this. They start at £10 bid. 10, 12, 12 bid.

0:47:380:47:42

15 bid. 18, 18 bid. 20 bid. 22 now. With you. 22 do I see?

0:47:420:47:47

22, 25, 28, 28? Bid 30. 32 now, 32. 35, 38, bid 40, 42?

0:47:470:47:52

£40, standing big, at 40. At 42 is the last call.

0:47:520:47:57

It's a good looking lot. At 40. All done and finished at £40.

0:47:570:48:02

Plus £19, lads. Plus £19. Like shelling peas.

0:48:020:48:08

Now, here comes the Javelin.

0:48:080:48:10

The Gloucester Javelin. It's also got its box to go with it as well.

0:48:100:48:13

£30, anybody? 30.

0:48:130:48:16

20, if you like, then. £20, anybody? 20.

0:48:160:48:18

Well, I'll go to all my commission bids then,

0:48:180:48:20

which start at 12 bid, 15 bid, 18 bid. At 18 bid, 20.

0:48:200:48:24

Ought to be a fraction more than this, surely.

0:48:240:48:26

At 18 bid, any more now at 18, for the Gloucester Javelin?

0:48:260:48:29

Selling, then, at £18.

0:48:290:48:32

That is minus £17, which means overall, you are plus two.

0:48:330:48:38

Look out, lads. Now, here comes the plate.

0:48:380:48:41

English Delft plate, there we go. Very nice piece of Delft.

0:48:410:48:44

-Who's going to start me at 150 for it? 150.

-It's a really good plate.

0:48:440:48:48

Start at £100 for it. 100.

0:48:480:48:50

50 to go then, surely. £50, anybody?

0:48:500:48:54

At £50, bid, 5 now, 55, 60, 60 bid, 65, bid, 70. At 70, bid, 5.

0:48:540:48:59

75, bid. 75, 80, on the net, 85, 90 now. 85, any more bids now?

0:48:590:49:05

Go on! Come on.

0:49:050:49:08

90, back in the room. At 90, 95 on the net, 95, 100, 110 now, 110 bid.

0:49:080:49:14

At 110. 20 now.

0:49:140:49:17

Let's go! Make a name!

0:49:170:49:19

Last call at 110, 15 I'm asking. Selling at £110.

0:49:190:49:22

Listen, you've got a pound.

0:49:220:49:24

You had the £2 profit before, you've got plus three!

0:49:240:49:27

Now, what are you going to do?

0:49:290:49:30

You going to do the Sunderland pottery jug for £100

0:49:300:49:33

or are you going to do the patch box for £100?

0:49:330:49:35

-We'll go for the pink box.

-You going to do it?

-Yeah.

0:49:350:49:37

You're going to go with the pink box? OK, great.

0:49:370:49:39

This is your choice.

0:49:390:49:41

First, though, we're going to sell the rejected bonus buy,

0:49:410:49:44

that's the team's bonus buy, just to see what happens,

0:49:440:49:47

and then we're going to move on to Tim's Ton, the extra bonus buy.

0:49:470:49:51

First up, though, is the team's bonus buy which has been rejected

0:49:510:49:54

but let's see what it makes. Here it comes.

0:49:540:49:56

Early 19th-century Sunderland lustre pottery jug.

0:49:560:49:59

There we go, very sizeable one, this. 22cm high. £50, anyone? 50?

0:49:590:50:04

40 to go then, surely. £40.

0:50:040:50:06

Highlighting 19th-century industry there. 40. £40 big, thank you.

0:50:060:50:11

40 bid, 5 now, 45 bid. 50, 50 bid. 55 bid. 60 now. At 60, 60 and 5.

0:50:110:50:16

At 60 bid, 5, surely, at £60. Are we all done?

0:50:160:50:19

And 5, now at 65, I'll take 5.

0:50:190:50:21

It's on the book, I'm selling this time then at £60.

0:50:210:50:24

£60 is minus £40 and you rejected it,

0:50:240:50:27

so what the difference, but there we go.

0:50:270:50:30

This is the 18-century Bilston Staffordshire enamel patch box,

0:50:300:50:34

nicely decorated, this one. Start me at 50, 30, who's first at 30?

0:50:340:50:39

£30 bid. At 30, bid from Australia, 35. 40 surely.

0:50:390:50:43

We ought to be well over 100. Any more now?

0:50:430:50:46

At 35, bid, 40, 40, bid, 5, 45 bid, 50 bid, 5, 55, 60 do I see,

0:50:460:50:52

60 bid and 5, 65, 65 bid, 70 now.

0:50:520:50:55

Come on, internet.

0:50:550:50:56

Wonderful box.

0:50:580:51:01

I knew there should be something there. Gut instinct. 70, 75.

0:51:010:51:04

It's a gorgeous box in exquisite condition.

0:51:040:51:06

75 bid, back in the room, at 75.

0:51:060:51:09

At 75, 78 is a last call, offer of a mate.

0:51:090:51:11

At £75 in the middle of the room there. I'm selling at £75.

0:51:110:51:16

75 is minus 25 which means overall, you are minus 22.

0:51:170:51:23

That's a disappointing result, chaps.

0:51:230:51:26

-Everybody happy?

-Indeed.

-Yeah.

-Indeed.

0:51:260:51:27

OK, say not a word to the Blues, and that could be a winning score,

0:51:270:51:31

very easily, minus 22.

0:51:310:51:33

95 in the room, at 95...

0:51:330:51:36

-Jerry, Lena, do you know how the Reds got on?

-I have no clue.

0:51:420:51:46

Good. You've got the retro lamp standard which you spent £24 on.

0:51:460:51:49

£30 to £50 is his estimate. He loves it too.

0:51:490:51:53

-So that's cool.

-Yes!

0:51:530:51:54

And here it comes.

0:51:540:51:55

There we go, retro standard lamp, great looking thing. Start me at £50.

0:51:550:51:58

20 to go then, £20, who's first in at 20? 10, if you like.

0:51:580:52:02

10, who's first in at 10?

0:52:020:52:04

£10. 10 bid, 12, there's the net coming back, 15 bid, 18, bid.

0:52:040:52:09

£20 a bid now, 20 surely. 20 bid. 22, 22.

0:52:090:52:12

5 bid now, 25, 28, 28, bid, 30 now. £30 bid.

0:52:120:52:16

30, ought to be double, really. 32, 35 next. It holds more than one bulb.

0:52:160:52:20

-Come on, the net.

-35, 38. 38, bid 40 now. 38, bid 40, do I see?

0:52:200:52:25

Now 40, 42?

0:52:250:52:26

42 now. 42. 45 now. Do I see 45?

0:52:260:52:30

45. 45, 48, they've obviously done a switch of foot.

0:52:300:52:34

-You've doubled your money.

-Yes!

0:52:340:52:36

48, more than one bidder on here, 48, all done at £48. And 50, fresh blood.

0:52:360:52:41

55, now, do I see? 55? Bid 60, 60 and 5 there. 65, surely. 65 do I see?

0:52:410:52:48

It's a great looking thing. 65.

0:52:480:52:50

At £60 in the middle of the room, then,

0:52:500:52:52

last call from anywhere else, and sold.

0:52:520:52:55

£60, that is remarkable.

0:52:550:52:59

So, that is plus £36.

0:52:590:53:01

Here we go with the German vase.

0:53:010:53:04

Scheurich Keramik vase. Who's going to start me at £40. £40, anybody? 40.

0:53:040:53:09

-Come on.

-£40. Are you sure? OK. We'll knock a digit off then.

0:53:090:53:13

Who's going to start me at four?

0:53:130:53:14

£4, anyone? Four?

0:53:140:53:17

Four at the back of the room. Four, six now, do I see?

0:53:170:53:19

Six, six bid, eight bid, eight bid. Ten, ten bid. 12 bid.

0:53:190:53:22

12, 15, 18, 18 now, 20, £18 bid, 20 now, at 18, bid.

0:53:220:53:28

20 bid, at 20, 22 now, do I see?

0:53:280:53:30

It's your last chance to buy this very nice vase.

0:53:300:53:34

No, gentleman's bid, selling at £20.

0:53:340:53:36

£20 is plus £5, well done, team. Now, the Ferranti roundabout clock.

0:53:360:53:40

What shall we say for this one? Start me at £50 for it.

0:53:400:53:42

50, nice bit of oak there, Ferranti as well with the Bakelite on it. £50.

0:53:420:53:47

He's a great auctioneer.

0:53:470:53:49

£30, anybody, 30. 20 to go then, surely, £20, anybody, £20 anybody?

0:53:490:53:53

£10. 10 down here, 12 again, surely.

0:53:530:53:55

£10 bid, 12 now, 12 bid, 15 bid, 18 bid, 20 bid, 2 bid, 5 bid,

0:53:550:54:01

at 22, any more now?

0:54:010:54:03

At £22. Nope? Selling, then, at £22, all done.

0:54:030:54:07

That's £15. That is so cool. £15.

0:54:070:54:12

What do reckon to that, eh?

0:54:120:54:14

So, £20, you're plus £56.

0:54:140:54:16

Now, what are we going to do about the bonus buys?

0:54:160:54:19

You've got the gimmel flask, right? The gimmel flask cost £25.

0:54:190:54:22

Then you've got the Tim's Ton, £100 he had.

0:54:220:54:25

He spent £50 and bought the World War I glasses, and the rare case.

0:54:250:54:29

-Do you think you're going to go with either or?

-Oh, yeah.

0:54:290:54:31

For sure, we're going to go with... I want both, I love both.

0:54:310:54:34

Well, you can't have both.

0:54:340:54:36

You have to have one or the other.

0:54:360:54:37

-Binoculars?

-You paid £50 for the binoculars.

0:54:370:54:40

Pleasure doing business with you. Binoculars it is.

0:54:400:54:42

-You're going to go with the binoculars?

-Yeah.

0:54:420:54:44

OK, fine, but we're going to sell the gimmel flask anyway.

0:54:440:54:47

It's going to come up first.

0:54:470:54:48

So whether it makes a profit or a loss makes no difference to you

0:54:480:54:51

cos it's not your pick, but let's see what happens.

0:54:510:54:53

The Nailsea double gimmel flask, start me at £50 for it. £50, anybody?

0:54:530:54:57

50, a low start there. And you should find them in good order.

0:54:570:55:00

I'll take 30 if we've got to start low. 30 with you, 32, 35, 5 bid.

0:55:000:55:03

40 now, 38, 40, 40 bid, 42, 42 now, 42 do I see? 42, 45, 48, no, 45.

0:55:050:55:12

£25 paid.

0:55:120:55:14

Surely at 45, are we all done now? At £45.

0:55:140:55:17

45 is plus £20, well done, Paul.

0:55:170:55:20

Plus 20, but it's sadly not going our way.

0:55:200:55:23

But that profit will be going to charity.

0:55:230:55:26

Next up, it's the binoculars.

0:55:260:55:28

This is the Fernglas 08 binoculars,

0:55:280:55:30

this time with the leather case to go with it as well.

0:55:300:55:33

Start it really cheap, then. £50, anybody, 50?

0:55:330:55:35

30.

0:55:350:55:37

£30, who's coming in first at £30?

0:55:370:55:40

£20 to go then.

0:55:400:55:42

£20 over there. 5 now, do I see? At 20 bid.

0:55:420:55:44

25 from anywhere else now? 20, I'll take 2 on the net.

0:55:440:55:47

We'll just roll on. 22, 25, 5 bid, 28, 28 bid, 30, 30 bid, 32.

0:55:470:55:51

Come on.

0:55:510:55:52

35, 35, 38 now, 38 bid, 40, 40 bid, 42, 45, 45, 48.

0:55:520:55:58

-Now we've got somebody into it.

-Come on.

0:55:580:56:00

48, surely. Make no mistake, at £45, all done. Selling at £45.

0:56:000:56:05

£45 is minus £5, which means you guys are plus £51.

0:56:050:56:12

-No shame in that.

-Not at all.

-Well done.

0:56:120:56:14

Plus £51, that's marvellous. Could be a winning score.

0:56:140:56:18

Oh, isn't that sweet?

0:56:180:56:19

You'll have to do it again now, cos they need a close-up.

0:56:190:56:22

-Oh, there's a close-up.

-Good job.

-Let's not get too carried away.

0:56:220:56:26

Anyway, should be a winning score.

0:56:260:56:28

Don't say a word to the Reds and all will be revealed in a moment.

0:56:280:56:31

-Thank you very much.

-Thank you.

-Thank you, Lena. Thank you, Gerry.

0:56:310:56:34

12 bid, 15 bid...

0:56:350:56:37

Well, well, well.

0:56:440:56:45

Pilots versus skydivers, eh?

0:56:460:56:49

Awful lot of competition going on here.

0:56:490:56:51

A lot riding on this when it comes to reputations, right, lads?

0:56:510:56:54

Very much so.

0:56:540:56:55

Have you been chatting about the scores, you Reds and Blues?

0:56:550:56:58

-No.

-Not been chatting about the score? OK, fine.

0:56:580:57:00

So, it will come as a complete surprise

0:57:000:57:03

because we're about to come in to land

0:57:030:57:05

and the team that is behind, only marginally, are the Reds.

0:57:050:57:10

Aw!

0:57:100:57:12

-Started out so beautifully, pilots, didn't it?

-Yes.

-But there we are.

0:57:120:57:16

We're either sportsmen and we're British and we walk tall,

0:57:160:57:18

in which case we're very, very happy with whatever life throws at us.

0:57:180:57:21

-Is that the case?

-That's it, yeah.

-Not really.

0:57:210:57:25

No, actually you've been great players, and thank you very much.

0:57:250:57:28

It is disappointing sometimes. The spin of the dice with all of this.

0:57:280:57:31

Anyway, you've been brilliant.

0:57:310:57:33

Thank you very much for coming

0:57:330:57:34

and playing on our special programme, but the victors today,

0:57:340:57:37

who are going home with folding cash, they're going home with £51.

0:57:370:57:41

There we go, guys. £51.

0:57:410:57:44

You got three profits in a row, earns you the right to join

0:57:440:57:48

the ancient order of the Golden Gavellers.

0:57:480:57:51

So, it's a great pleasure for me to give you your little badge

0:57:510:57:54

to wear with pride next time you go up in the sky.

0:57:540:57:57

I expect to see this falling to the ground very, very quickly.

0:57:570:58:01

-Anyway, good fun, hey?

-Yes, very much.

-Well, very much for us.

0:58:010:58:05

The only thing that you failed to do was to spot the correct bonus buy.

0:58:050:58:10

And in fact, the team's bonus buy was the one that made

0:58:100:58:13

the £20 profit, the £20 that I've got here.

0:58:130:58:16

That profit will be donated to charity in due course.

0:58:160:58:19

So, Paul, congratulations on a great find there. A profitable find.

0:58:190:58:23

Sadly, you didn't pick it. At least, the team didn't pick it,

0:58:230:58:25

but nevertheless, the profit is the profit

0:58:250:58:27

and that will go to charity, so thank you very much, Paul.

0:58:270:58:30

In fact, it's a win-win-win situation today.

0:58:300:58:32

Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?

0:58:320:58:35

ALL: Yeah!
