0:00:02 > 0:00:04This is Wetherby Racecourse in Yorkshire, where people have
0:00:04 > 0:00:07been winning and losing fortunes on the horses for donkey's years.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12We're here to flash the cash too, but not on the racing.
0:00:12 > 0:00:16NEIGH, NEIGH, I say thrice, NEIGH.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20We're here roaming for bargains, so, let's go bargain hunting, yeah!
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Our teams today are all ladies and gentlemen of leisure.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Well, of leisure pursuits, actually.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57But there's no time to unwind and relax,
0:00:57 > 0:01:00because they're all fighting against the clock.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Oh, yes, it's a one-hour special today
0:01:04 > 0:01:07and we've changed the rules a bit, because our experts will be
0:01:07 > 0:01:10shopping for not one, but two bonus buys to take to auction.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13More about that later. For now, here's a look at
0:01:13 > 0:01:15what's coming up on today's programme.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21The Reds are all of a dither...
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Can we keep an eye on it?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Could you put it by for us for half an hour?
0:01:25 > 0:01:27But Anita's on a roll.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30You guys are wonderful.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32What a team!
0:01:32 > 0:01:35But will they flounder or fly at the auction?
0:01:36 > 0:01:38No, no, no, no, no.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41How terrible is that?
0:01:41 > 0:01:42Let's find out more, eh?
0:01:44 > 0:01:51Both of our teams today like to take it easy and enjoy relaxing pastimes.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53The question is, how are they going to get on in the hurly-burly
0:01:53 > 0:01:55of Bargain Hunt?
0:01:55 > 0:02:00For the Reds, today we have mother and son - Margaret and Steve,
0:02:00 > 0:02:02and for the Blues, Keith and Peter.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04- Hello, everyone.- ALL: Hello.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Now, you as a family adore golf, right?- Absolutely.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09Tell us about the passion.
0:02:09 > 0:02:14I started quite a number of years ago, when the boys grew up,
0:02:14 > 0:02:18and we just love it, it's really enjoyable. We can do it as a family.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Absolutely adore it, I love it.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- And is it, as much as anything else, a social life?- Oh, it's great, yeah.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25You meet some fabulous people.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28And I suppose you have one or two gin and tonics down
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- at the clubhouse, do you? - Yes.- OK.- Just a few.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34And quite right too, because you need refreshing, don't you,
0:02:34 > 0:02:36- after all that walking about? - Definitely.- Brilliant.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39So, tell me about these two jobs that you have to hold down,
0:02:39 > 0:02:41as well as finding time to play the golf.
0:02:41 > 0:02:42Well, my main job...
0:02:42 > 0:02:46I work at a company, they sell school uniforms into schools.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48That's number one job, and my second
0:02:48 > 0:02:52- part-time job is at my local supermarket.- Is it?- Yes.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- Do you do checkout or shelves? - I work in the clothing department.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58The clothing department, not the special spectacles department?
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Oh, no.- No, no, no.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02We must exchange notes shortly.
0:03:02 > 0:03:06- So, Steve, when you're not playing golf you like to go camping?- Yes. - Tell us about that.
0:03:06 > 0:03:11I've got three boys, who I like to take out to go old-school kind of
0:03:11 > 0:03:17camping - no tech, no nothing, just knives and sticks and trees and mud.
0:03:17 > 0:03:18- And do you get really messy?- Yeah.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- And do they get really messy?- Yeah. - And do they love it?- Yeah.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25I think, you know, it's back to nature, isn't it? Which is great.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Now, you like to collect a few antiques and stuff like that,
0:03:28 > 0:03:30tell us about those.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35My house is kind of like a gentleman's club, lots of black,
0:03:35 > 0:03:38lots of silver, red leather Chesterfields, those kind of things.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Vintage furniture.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42You're a bit of a frustrated interior designer, are you?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44A little bit, yeah.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47I tend to find things and then I'll change them
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- into something that I like. - Sounds very stylish.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52It says here that you're a bit of a shoe addict.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57- A little bit, not quite as bad as my mum.- Really? Are you bad?
0:03:57 > 0:03:59- Ridiculously bad. - Yes, unfortunately.
0:03:59 > 0:04:00How many in pairs, Mags?
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Um...
0:04:02 > 0:04:06- around 200. - 200 pairs of shoes?- Yeah.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Gosh, were going to have some fun shopping with you today, I tell you.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12So, are you going to be up, you two, for driving a few hard bargains?
0:04:12 > 0:04:15- Oh, yeah.- Oh, yes.- What are you going to be looking for, then?
0:04:15 > 0:04:19I'll be looking for silverware, I like my silver.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21And possibly some furniture.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Not too big. What about you, Mags?
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Me? Ah, well...
0:04:25 > 0:04:29- Anything, really, that I like the look of.- Just grabs you?- Yes.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Well, it's a lovely fair here at Wetherby, I can tell you.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34You'll have plenty of choice. So, more of that in a moment.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38- Anyway, chaps, how are you both, all right?- Fine, thank you.
0:04:38 > 0:04:43- Now, Keith, you enjoy going fishing together. Tell us about your fishing.- Well, we go carp fishing.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Pete likes float fishing.
0:04:45 > 0:04:50- But I like sitting down and watching the nature passing by.- Exactly.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54And apart from the fishing, you are a very keen steam train enthusiast.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Yes. Yeah, yeah, love it.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59It's the magic of the past, you know,
0:04:59 > 0:05:01the pre-'60s, the atmosphere
0:05:01 > 0:05:04and all the original noises that the carriages make,
0:05:04 > 0:05:08and the wheels make on the tracks. You know, it's absolutely beautiful.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- He's very good, isn't he?- Yes. - He could wax lyrical on the subject.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16A bit like the movie Brief Encounter, you can
0:05:16 > 0:05:19encounter people on these trips, can't you?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22- Well, you can, yeah, but... - Sometimes famous people.- Absolutely.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Sometimes famous people who are quite familiar to us.- Yes, indeed.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27By the name of...
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Anita Manning. Yes, adorable Anita.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34Unlike the brief encounter at Carnforth with Trevor Howard
0:05:34 > 0:05:37and Celia Johnson and all the steam, it was just quite...
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- Quite a clean encounter? - Quite clean, yeah.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Well, never mind, because today, especially for you, Keith,
0:05:43 > 0:05:46we've got Anita Manning as your expert on the programme.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48- That's gorgeous.- So, you're going to be able to
0:05:48 > 0:05:50have another encounter with Anita,
0:05:50 > 0:05:54but not on a train platform. How brilliant.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Now, Peter, apart from your interest in fishing and relaxing
0:05:57 > 0:06:00out by the water, you're a very creative person, aren't you?
0:06:00 > 0:06:05- Well, I'd like to think so.- Well, that's what it says here, so...
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Erm, yeah, I'm a singer-songwriter.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09I've got a couple of contracts in America,
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- publishing contracts in America. - Oh, have you?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Just got my first book out, which is doing quite well around the world.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Good for you. So, tell us about what you write. Tell us about the book.
0:06:19 > 0:06:24The book is about my dog, called Stan. Stan speaks perfect English.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25- Does he?- Yes, he does.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29He uses colourful and industrial language, as young people do.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31You know, as a puppy.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33The book is written for his first two and a half years.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- He is actually 11 now.- So, we're standing by for volume two and three...
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- Three, four, five.- Yes, exactly.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Depends on whether they keep selling...- So, you say that you are
0:06:43 > 0:06:48not only a songwriter, but you're also a singer. Does that mean you've got a song inside you now?
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- You're not going to do that me, are you?- I can do it to you.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Well, I mean, you write the things and you can sing them,
0:06:53 > 0:06:55so give us a lungful.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Well... Could you just...- Compose yourself!- My most famous, I suppose,
0:06:58 > 0:07:01most famous song around the globe has got to be Rainy Day Lady
0:07:01 > 0:07:03and it gets played on the radio quite a lot.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06So, I shall give you the first couple of lines of that.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09# You're just my Rainy Day Lady
0:07:09 > 0:07:13# Can't you feel it in my heart?
0:07:13 > 0:07:16# Rainy Day Lady
0:07:16 > 0:07:20# You meant nothing from the start... #
0:07:20 > 0:07:24- Look at that, that is soulful, man. - Thank you.- That is so cool.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29Because it's not going to rain today, because it's going to remain very bright and breezy
0:07:29 > 0:07:32and hopefully, this bright and breezy through the money moment.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35Because here's your £300, £300 apiece.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38You know the rules, your experts await and off you go,
0:07:38 > 0:07:40and very, very, very good luck.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Cor, he's good, isn't he?
0:07:43 > 0:07:47So, that's our teams. Let's say hello to our experts.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Let's hope he bonds as well with the Reds. It's Serrell, Philip Serrell.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- While the Blues have the magical... - Just like that.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56..Anita Manning.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01I tell you what, I do love the shoes, they're cool.
0:08:01 > 0:08:02Have we got a plan?
0:08:02 > 0:08:06- What do you want to buy? - Fishing stuff sounds good.- Yeah.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- Possibly some furniture.- Yep. Anything that takes your fancy.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- Old bits to do with cars, bits to do with boats, Keith?- Yeah.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17So, teams, whether your teeing off or casting off,
0:08:17 > 0:08:19your time starts now.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Let's go see what we can find, come on.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Let's go.- OK.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27So, everything's in place.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30You've got the weather, the cash, the time and the expertise.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- So, get stuck in.- Will we have a wee look in here, guys?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36A wee rummage through the boxes.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Have the Blues got a bite already?
0:08:39 > 0:08:42Oh. Fishermen, fishermen.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46That's a bit big for you to handle, Pete.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- Is that for a shark? - It looks like it, it looks...
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Say you were out in the ocean
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- and you were trying to catch a huge, big fish...- Yeah.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Well, it would be, wouldn't it? That's quite strong, isn't it?
0:08:57 > 0:09:01I think that was used on Captain Ahab's boat.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05- 'Sounds like a red herring to me.' - So, tell me how it works.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Well, you put that on your rod there and there's a couple of things...
0:09:08 > 0:09:12So, you've got a rod there? Oh, you don't just throw that string out?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17Method acting for thumbs, push your rod under there
0:09:17 > 0:09:18and that goes on there...
0:09:18 > 0:09:21They could be a REEL-ly long time,
0:09:21 > 0:09:23so let's catch up with the Reds.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29There's a cabinet over here that I saw earlier.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Now, this stuff is quite... It's a bit retro.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36What do you think of that? This is a... It's basically
0:09:36 > 0:09:39a piece of office furniture. It's like an old file cabinet,
0:09:39 > 0:09:41I don't know how it works. Oh, there you are, look.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43And this would have had adjustable shelves here.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46It's not the best quality in the world. It's made out of bits of oak
0:09:46 > 0:09:49and some plywood, but this sort of vintagey stuff,
0:09:49 > 0:09:51it's quite sought-after.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53But it's collectable. Do you like that?
0:09:53 > 0:09:57Erm, it's not my usual thing, I'm more of a...
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Victorian furniture, but I suppose it's tactile.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- It could be serviceable. - It's useful.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Take the hint, Phil, they're not keen.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09They want £75 for it. I would have thought at auction,
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- this is going to make between £50 and £100.- Can we keep an eye on it?
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Yeah, just half an hour.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19- In half an hour's time, you'll have to make your mind up.- Yeah, OK.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Plenty of time and stuff to dig out of the rough.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Blues are still hooked on that spool, though.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30Fishing is one of these things people are very keen on
0:10:30 > 0:10:36- and I think that that is - technical term - a big cracker.- Yes, it is.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38And mean, I think it's the type of
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- thing that the fishing guys would go for.- Yes. I do.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44And I think that there is profit in that if you can get them down.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48- What do you think?- OK, let's have a go.- With the ticket price of £25.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52- Smile nicely.- Hiya, how you doing? Are you all right?
0:10:52 > 0:10:57Can we make you an offer on this, or... Sorry.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- You can try reel me in with a decent offer.- How about three quid?
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- I'm not taking the bait there. - Would you take 15 quid for it?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08- No, I couldn't. I really couldn't. - Where are you going to be with it?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Erm...
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- You could really beat me down and hook me in at about 20.- 20?
0:11:14 > 0:11:18- What about 18?- Couldn't, honestly. I couldn't go to 17.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Can I make it 19, then?- No!
0:11:21 > 0:11:23'Gosh, he's good.'
0:11:23 > 0:11:26- 20 quid sounds all right to me. - All right, yeah.- Yes, £20 it is.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- Thank you very much indeed. £20. - I was kippered there, wasn't I?
0:11:29 > 0:11:33- Thank you.- I think you've done well at 20 quid, guys.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- That's a good start. - That's the catch of the day.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Hey, I do the jokes around here!
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Anyway, you've landed your first item in next to no time.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Four minutes, 20 seconds.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48First item bought, what a team!
0:11:50 > 0:11:53- Would you agree?- Absolutely. Yeah, yeah.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58Blues may be speedy, but Phil's the font of all knowledge.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03These are old printing blocks. How are you doing, all right?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Good. Now, then.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08How much are these each?
0:12:08 > 0:12:10The large £5, the medium are £3, the small are £2.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14Right, you got to help me a second. OK, come and help me out a minute.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17I know Phil loves lumps of old wood, but this takes the biscuit.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Can I have a B, please?
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- Have a B...- I want a B.- There's a B.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Now, can I have an A?
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Ah, now, there's a hard one.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28You sound like a very unlikely cheerleader, Phil,
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- 'but I see where this one is going.' - Ah...
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- You see where I'm going now? - I know where you're going.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- You know where I'm going? - I know where you're going.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42This could take a while. Now, Blues are discussing their next move.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46- Are you any good in the three-point turns on that?- Brilliant!- Are you?
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- Absolutely brilliant. - Does that take two?
0:12:50 > 0:12:54Because I'm only a wee girl, I'm only a wee girl.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57No easy rides on the show. Or do I have to spell it out?
0:12:57 > 0:13:01There's a U. I want a T. Oh, here's a T.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Oh, that's better. That's much better, isn't it?
0:13:04 > 0:13:08B - A - R - G - A - I - N
0:13:08 > 0:13:11space, H - U - N - T.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13What do you reckon to that, Bargain Hunt?
0:13:13 > 0:13:14How cool is that?
0:13:14 > 0:13:17On a serious note? I think these are good fun, because these are
0:13:17 > 0:13:20printing compositors, letter blocks.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23I mean, they are collectable in their own way
0:13:23 > 0:13:25and I'd love to have bought them all, but they're £100.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28But I think the best thing we can do is buy "Bargain Hunt" here,
0:13:28 > 0:13:32and then if we can find someone at the auction who is a real fan,
0:13:32 > 0:13:35they could take Bargain Hunt home with them, look. Do you like that?
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- Yeah, it's quite fun.- Bit of fun. Cheap fun, isn't it?- A bit of fun, yeah.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41- They are nice.- I actually used to work with these.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Well, we've both worked in newspaper.- Really? Well, that's...
0:13:43 > 0:13:48You see, I knew it all the time. I knew it, there's a link there.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51- That, to me, looks like it's three quid's worth.- Oh, I don't think so.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Oh! You've got a dodgy H! No, OK, how much?
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- So, if I say it really, really quickly...- Go on, then.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- I say 45 quid, quick.- Get out of here. Behave. How much?
0:14:01 > 0:14:03- I'll do the whole lot for 30 quid.- No, no, no, no, no.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05They're all little letters.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10- They're all little letters.- Yeah, 15 quid.- Tenner and it's a deal.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- No, it's too strong.- Tenner's a deal, isn't it?- A tenner, yeah.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16- 12 quid.- No, no, no, we're doing it democratically. All those in favour
0:14:16 > 0:14:20- of- £10... All the camera crew...
0:14:20 > 0:14:22All those in favour...
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Cheers, mate, you're a star. Thank you very much.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- OK.- That's really cool, isn't it? It's Bargain Hunt.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Yes. Well, at least you've put your stamp on things,
0:14:31 > 0:14:36and at one item bought apiece, our teams have time on their hands.
0:14:36 > 0:14:37Especially those Blues.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41- There we are, that's nice, isn't it? - That's a lovely, clean clock.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45Smiths Empire, made in Great Britain, gives it some age.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49Glass-fronted, brass and a hardwood back, looks like oak,
0:14:49 > 0:14:51stained oak, to me.
0:14:51 > 0:14:52Hang on, who's the expert here?
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- I wonder what we can get that for. - Now, I like that clock.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01What you've done is describe it there with all that...
0:15:01 > 0:15:05You know, it's a nice wooden brass clock. Good, clean face.
0:15:05 > 0:15:11Often, when the dial is tired or distressed, it will be redone.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15But that's original, that's nice. Do you like that?
0:15:15 > 0:15:16It's nice, yeah, yeah.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19But, without the key, you don't know if it's working.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23- We don't know if it works.- No.- We'll have to ask the guy if it works.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26See, in that type of clock, nobody can guarantee you,
0:15:26 > 0:15:29but what I can say to you, in an older clock, there is
0:15:29 > 0:15:33often very little that needs done. I think that's fine.
0:15:33 > 0:15:34- That's a nice bit of kit.- Yeah.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38I'm just thinking it would fit on, you know...pub, restaurant,
0:15:38 > 0:15:41themed restaurant, boat, private boat.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45We're selling in Darlington, an auction in Darlington.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Now, Darlington is famous as a...
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Trains, really.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Trains is the main thing, isn't it?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Trains, engineering, that sort of stuff.
0:15:54 > 0:15:58So, that's maybe the type of thing that would appeal to the Darlington buyers.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00- They've got it up for £180, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03- I think £180 is a bit dear. - A bit steep, yeah, I think it is.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05What do you think it will make, roughly, in auction?
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- I would estimate it, probably, 80-120.- 80 to...
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- So, we don't want to be over 100 with that.- No.- No.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Who's going to be good at bargaining between the two of you?
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Do you want me to have a go at it? Right, yeah, yeah.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22- You'll have to be cruel.- Yes. Yeah. - With a smile.- With a smile, yeah.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Let me see your lovely smile. - Smiling assassin!- That's nice.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28If you can get it at somewhere between there, 80 to 120,
0:16:28 > 0:16:30I think it's worth going for.
0:16:30 > 0:16:31- Good luck, darling.- OK!
0:16:32 > 0:16:36While Keith turns on the charm, the Reds head inside for a quick search.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42It's called Tantalus, because it tantalises you. Because you can't actually get at the booze.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44I said search, not Scotch.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51How did you get on, Keith?
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Well, he wanted to stick at the £180,
0:16:54 > 0:16:58but I have managed to talk him down to £100.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00- £100?- Wow. That's cheap.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04- He's good.- He's good, yeah. - He's good.- Yeah, of course I am.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06You're not that good.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Maybe that smiling assassin thing worked.
0:17:08 > 0:17:13But the thing is, it's the end of the day, he's packing up...
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- I think it's a great deal.- Yeah. - You want to go for that?
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- Yes.- I've shook his hand.
0:17:18 > 0:17:22- We've already paid!- It's a done deal. OK.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24You guys, I have to say,
0:17:24 > 0:17:27you guys are wonderful.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Two items, let's get on to the third one, then, guys.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Second item with a maritime theme.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Meanwhile, the Reds' penchant for shoes emerges.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Can we have a look at your snuff shoe, please?
0:17:43 > 0:17:46These used to be really, really sought after
0:17:46 > 0:17:48and they've come down a little bit in value.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52This is quite a nice one, it's got these little nail heads
0:17:52 > 0:17:54hammered in the bottom, which is like pique ware,
0:17:54 > 0:17:56and that's just a sign of decoration.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Very often they were given as love tokens,
0:17:58 > 0:18:00so they would have had some little names, or initials, really.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Just there and there.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05And you just open that up, take a pinch of your snuff out,
0:18:05 > 0:18:06put it on there...
0:18:06 > 0:18:10I like that, but I think it's going to make between £50 and £80.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12That's where I'm at with it.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16This gentleman's got £125 off it, so, you know, for you to buy that
0:18:16 > 0:18:20- and make a profit... Lovely thing, but...- Yeah, it's going to...
0:18:20 > 0:18:23What's the best you can do on this one?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25It would need to be at £90.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27I know there is a lot of people do collect them.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31- 90 is the absolute finish on it? - It is, really, yeah.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33- I have to stand on that. - Yeah, no, that's fine.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37- Could you put it by for us for half an hour?- Yes.- Is that all right?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Yeah, yep.- You'd rather have that than that file cabinet?
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- Definitely go with that rather than the cabinet.- You prefer that more?
0:18:43 > 0:18:47- Keep it by for us for about half an hour. All right?- OK.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51So, we've bought one, we've got one bit put by at 90,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- and then we can just have a look around, can't we?- Yeah.- Come on.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56You'll be cutting it fine if you do, team.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Cor, living dangerously, eh, Reds?
0:18:59 > 0:19:04- One more lot to buy, and what... - Can I have a look at that over there?
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- All right, more boys toys. - Yeah, more boys toys.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14That's the Mamod steam engine. An important thing in this type of item
0:19:14 > 0:19:20is to have the original box, in good condition, is a definite plus.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23So, maybe from about the '70s, but these are working models,
0:19:23 > 0:19:24they're not toys.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Not for kids, they're for big boys, like you.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29- Like us, yeah.- Big boys for you.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32And now, you've got various
0:19:32 > 0:19:35different models here.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Are there any that you like especially,
0:19:37 > 0:19:41- or do you want to play with them all?- I like them all.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Well, Blues, you might have the luxury of ten minutes
0:19:45 > 0:19:49for your third purchase, but those Reds are in search of their second.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Still, every cloud has a silver lining, eh?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55So, what you do is look at the piece of silver...
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Silver is a really soft metal.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02So, this is a christening set, so I think that was the son of Samson
0:20:02 > 0:20:05that had that one, because quite what he's done to the end...
0:20:05 > 0:20:08Yeah, I was just thinking that. He's eaten it.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11But I wouldn't argue with him.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Well, I've heard of being born with a silver spoon in your mouth.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Anyway, having toyed long enough with the steam engine, the Blues now I mean business.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Ah, the man himself.- Hello. - All right?
0:20:21 > 0:20:24My boys have been looking at the boys toys.
0:20:25 > 0:20:30Can you explain to us about... Which is that box that you told me...?
0:20:30 > 0:20:33This is from 1974.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36It's got an original box, it's never been fired,
0:20:36 > 0:20:41it has the original firebox, the tundish to put the water in.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43The steering mechanism,
0:20:43 > 0:20:47and that's for the man to stand upon.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49It's never... It's immaculate, really.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52You've got everything you need.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54- It's never been used. - You've got the original box.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- This is the steam roller. - And that goes on that? Thank you.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- Well, out of the two, I like the one with the roof on it.- Yeah.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05What's the difference? How much is this one and how much is that one?
0:21:05 > 0:21:09- The price is just the same, £140.- £140?- Yeah.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11- What you think, Keith, do you like it?- I like that, yeah.
0:21:11 > 0:21:17- So, what's the best?- Come on, the best.- The best death price.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21- How does £120 sound to you? - 100 would sound better.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23I'm afraid I wouldn't let it go for that.
0:21:23 > 0:21:24I know, I knew you were going to say that.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27How about just another tenner off?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Just because it's the last item of the day, come on, let's do it.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32- You're one of the boys. - Yeah, go on.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34110.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38- Never been robbed by a nicer man. - Thank you very much. VENDOR: Thank you.
0:21:38 > 0:21:43Do you know, I've got an invincible team here. These boys don't need me.
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Oh, I don't know, Anita,
0:21:44 > 0:21:47who knows what trouble they'd get into without you.
0:21:47 > 0:21:51- How much have you spent, boys?- £230.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Well, that's a respectable amount of money and you've left me
0:21:54 > 0:21:58- not too bad dosh to go forward. - 70 quid.- Uh-huh.
0:21:58 > 0:22:02- I think we deserve a nice wee cup of tea.- Absolutely.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Whilst Blues go for tea, the Reds really need to get a move on.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09We're under the cosh here, aren't we? We need to make a decision.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13- The shoe...- Yes.- We've got to go with the shoe.- Buy it.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15- You like little bits of silver and stuff?- Mm-hm.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19I've just found... And where's the auction?
0:22:19 > 0:22:20BOTH: Darlington.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Do you see what this is here, look.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28- Darlington.- 1885.
0:22:29 > 0:22:30Mrs Eden...
0:22:32 > 0:22:3516 Grange Terrace. I think that's a little key fob.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38Given that the auction is in Darlington...
0:22:38 > 0:22:40That strikes me as we should buy that.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Time and options are running out, Reds.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Now, how much is that, what would you pay for that?
0:22:45 > 0:22:49- Not knowing if it's silver or not, it's... 20 quid.- What would you pay?
0:22:49 > 0:22:53- I'd say about 30, 35.- Well, it's priced at, look...
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- 15 quid. So, if we could get it for a tenner...- At least.- Yeah.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00You've got £10 worth of printing blocks, £10 worth of that,
0:23:00 > 0:23:02£90 worth of shoe, home and hosed.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03Phew.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Well done, Reds. Phil comes to the rescue once again.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Two down, one to go.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Now, have you ever wondered what the experts get up to once
0:23:12 > 0:23:14they've finished shopping? Wonder no more.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Oh!
0:23:16 > 0:23:18I feel like that woman in Benidorm.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Benidorm, here we come.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- I don't know where the brakes are. - 'Your time will come, Anita.'
0:23:28 > 0:23:33- 'Phil's Reds are still hard at it, though.'- So, how much is that?
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Well, it's on at 15. - So, you've got it for...
0:23:36 > 0:23:41- I've got it for 12.- Shake the man's hand.- Tough, thank you.- Well done.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43Thank you very much.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46Well, you get the kettle on while your team seals
0:23:46 > 0:23:48the deal on the snuff box.
0:23:48 > 0:23:49Fantastic, thank you.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52- Thank you. Thank you. - Best of luck.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55The race is over, time's up.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Let's check out what the Red team bought, eh?
0:23:58 > 0:24:02At £10, the wooden printing blocks spelled out their first buy
0:24:02 > 0:24:04and Bargain Hunt.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08They addressed the lack of a second item by buying the key fob ingot.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10£12 paid.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13And finally, the treen boot-shaped snuff box for £90.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19Well, you're a happy team, aren't you? My gosh.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22Now, Steve, tell me, which is your favourite piece?
0:24:22 > 0:24:24- Erm, the snuff box. - What about you, Mags?
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Erm, I like the little ingot, the little pendant.
0:24:28 > 0:24:29Yeah, so that's your favourite?
0:24:29 > 0:24:32But that's surely not going to bring the biggest profit, is it?
0:24:32 > 0:24:35With what we paid, it is a good possibility, yeah.
0:24:35 > 0:24:40I think the Bargain Hunt printing blocks will make the most money.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44Do you, do you? OK, fine. That, I think, is a strategic vote.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Anyway, how much did you spend all round?- £112.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51£112, I'd like 188, please. Leftover lolly. Right, we got a few...
0:24:51 > 0:24:53We've got three bits of shrapnel. Great, watch that.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56- Anyway, there you go, Phil. That'll warm up your palm.- Absolutely.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00And Steve wanted a proper antique, so I'm going to go and get him
0:25:00 > 0:25:03- a latter-day antique, I think.- Are you?
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Well, your options are open, because I'm going to give you Tim's Ton now.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08There is another £100, all right? The only thing is,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10come back and have a chat with me
0:25:10 > 0:25:13in a minute or two, because we can have a little confidential chat and
0:25:13 > 0:25:16not tell these guys what we're going to predict
0:25:16 > 0:25:17until we get to the auction.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19Anyway, good luck with that, Phil.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought, eh?
0:25:23 > 0:25:26The large wooden fishing reel was netted for £20.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31They continued the nautical theme with
0:25:31 > 0:25:33the Smiths Empire ship-style clock for £100.
0:25:34 > 0:25:39And finally, they splashed out £110 for the Mamod steam tractor.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45- Well, chaps, was that good fun? - Yeah, great. Really enjoyed it. - Brilliant, Yeah, yeah.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48- In very rapid order, I might say.- No messing.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51- So, Pete, which is your favourite piece?- Gosh...
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- I really like the clock.- You like the clock. Do you agree, Keith?
0:25:54 > 0:25:59Erm, yes. Yeah. No, no, I don't. I like the tractor best.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01- You like the tractor. - OK, that's your favourite.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04- Is the tractor going to bring the biggest profit?- I think the reel
0:26:04 > 0:26:06- is going to bring in the big profit.- OK.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11- Yeah, I think he's right. I think the reel...- So, we have agreed on the reel...
0:26:11 > 0:26:12Will reel in the best profit. Great.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16- And how much did you spend all round?- £230.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- £230, I'd like £70 of leftover lolly, please.- Yeah.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21You've got that, £70 of leftover lolly, very good, thanks.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23That goes straight across to Anita, and in addition,
0:26:23 > 0:26:25you're going to get Tim's Ton.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28That's for the two bonus buys, double challenge for you today.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32- Are you up for this?- I certainly am, but I have to warn you, boys,
0:26:32 > 0:26:36I'm going to buy something completely different.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Oh, stand by for that. Well, if you could pop back in a minute,
0:26:38 > 0:26:42when you've found that, we'll have a little confidential chat about it,
0:26:42 > 0:26:45and we won't be telling the boys anything whatsoever. OK?
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Everybody happy? You bet your life we are, thank you.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57So, shopping starts again for our experts,
0:26:57 > 0:27:01and with so much cash burning a hole in their pockets,
0:27:01 > 0:27:02what will they buy?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05- Yeah, we'll do it. - You're a gentleman,
0:27:05 > 0:27:07thank you very much indeed.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Well, Steve wanted an antique...
0:27:10 > 0:27:13And for £50, I've got him an antique of tomorrow.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17But, what have you done with that Ton?
0:27:17 > 0:27:20The dealer's had to go early. Great antiques, are they?
0:27:20 > 0:27:23Well, certainly not, but what they will do is sell stock
0:27:23 > 0:27:24at a fair like this.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28- Well, here we go again, then, Phil.- Absolutely.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- You've been out, you've done your worst.- Phew, yes.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33You've come back with two modest little jobbies.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36First of all, let us have a look at this table, which is
0:27:36 > 0:27:39the team's bonus buy. You had £188 of leftover lolly
0:27:39 > 0:27:42and you went with this Formica-top table.
0:27:42 > 0:27:43Creation, creation.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46I've always liked Star Trek and it reminded me of Enterprise.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48I can see I've lost you there, Tim.
0:27:48 > 0:27:54No, no, you haven't. It's got that kind of um, amoebic shape.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56Well, you know what, if you'd told me I'd have been buying
0:27:56 > 0:27:59stuff like that 20 years ago, I'd have laughed at you.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01But I think that that's quite a funky table.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05It's 1960s and I think, I can see some youngster in the saleroom,
0:28:05 > 0:28:07or hopefully, two youngsters in the saleroom,
0:28:07 > 0:28:10getting hopefully carried away. Quite a funky thing, I think.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13I think so, too. But it's sufficiently oddball
0:28:13 > 0:28:15to make it an attractive object these days at auction.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18That's what I thought. I'm glad you think that.
0:28:18 > 0:28:23So, Phil, you're going to have to tell other teams a bit later on what your estimate is on this.
0:28:23 > 0:28:27I paid £50 for that and I think it's going to make £60-90.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30£60-90 is your estimate. OK, fine. Very good.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34Now, what about Tim's Ton? You had £100. You bought these two cabinets.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37- Do you rate them?- Yeah. Well, I don't necessarily rate them
0:28:37 > 0:28:39but I think they're very, very commercial.
0:28:39 > 0:28:44I think these are probably off a bigger piece of furniture. They're oak. They're 1930s.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47I paid £60 for those and I would estimate them at £80-120.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49I think you're absolutely right.
0:28:49 > 0:28:53And I have to make the invidious decision as to which one to go for.
0:28:53 > 0:28:58So I will not surprisingly opt for Tim's Ton on your cupboards.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00You shove it on, because it's nearest to you.
0:29:00 > 0:29:01If there's any justice, Philip,
0:29:01 > 0:29:04you will make the extra profit over Tim's Ton.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07But the thing is, do the teams pick the right one? And that's what's so exciting, you see.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10- We'll find that out.- Right. Now, though, why don't we check out
0:29:10 > 0:29:17how poor Anita's getting on with buying her bonus buys.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23To recap, Anita had £170 leftover lolly,
0:29:23 > 0:29:26as well as the £100 given by me for the Tim's Ton buy.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28How did she get on?
0:29:28 > 0:29:34I like this. It's a little writing set. It's in at £25.
0:29:34 > 0:29:40- Is there any movement on that?- £20. - This is a deal. This is a deal.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44And she's not gone far for her Tim's Ton buy, either.
0:29:44 > 0:29:49This is a lovely wee set here. A little 1930s moulded glass set.
0:29:49 > 0:29:54I can see that you've got 75 on that.
0:29:54 > 0:29:57What is the very best that you can do?
0:29:57 > 0:30:01- My very best is 60.- 60? I think we'll take it at that.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04- Thank you very, very, very much. - Thank you.- Two wonderful things.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07- I hope they like them. - So do I!
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Now, how difficult was it for you to shop for these?
0:30:13 > 0:30:18It was absolutely easy. I decided to buy things that I liked myself.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20Well, that does make it easier, doesn't it?
0:30:20 > 0:30:22You had your limitation of cash.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25- So for the team's bonus buy, you had £70.- Aha.- Tell us about that.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29Well, Peter is a songwriter and an author and I thought it would
0:30:29 > 0:30:33be nice to buy him something which was writing-related.
0:30:33 > 0:30:38And I thought this rather nice Art Deco box set of writing
0:30:38 > 0:30:42paraphernalia would be a nice thing. It's from the 1930s.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45It's made of plastic, so it's not an expensive thing.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48But we have this rather nice decoration with
0:30:48 > 0:30:52our little bands here of a darker plastic.
0:30:52 > 0:30:55And we have a seal, a little propelling pencil,
0:30:55 > 0:31:00- a pen with a 14-carat nib.- Oh, yeah.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02And a little paper knife there.
0:31:02 > 0:31:07So it's a lovely wee set from the Art Deco period, 1930s
0:31:07 > 0:31:08and it was only £20.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Well, for £20, Anita, I think you've done pretty well.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14It's no wonder you liked it yourself.
0:31:14 > 0:31:18Now, moving on to Tim's Ton, I give you the £100
0:31:18 > 0:31:21and you came up with this heap of glass.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24- I mean, this is a whole glassworks here, girl!- I know.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27I mean, I have to say that the boys bought these very sort of
0:31:27 > 0:31:30masculine type of things
0:31:30 > 0:31:33and I thought that I would quite like to buy something that
0:31:33 > 0:31:38was totally different and that might appeal to their feminine sense.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41Moulded glass, probably Czechoslovakian.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45It's sort of a cheaper form of glass.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47It wouldn't have been expensive probably at the time
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- but you've got a lot of glass. - You've got a lot of glass there.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55And in this fashionable '30s amber kind of colour.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59- OK, so how much did you spend? - £60.- £60 for all those pieces?
0:31:59 > 0:32:01You know what I have to do now, don't you?
0:32:01 > 0:32:05I have to predict which one of these in proportion is going to
0:32:05 > 0:32:06make the biggest profit.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09I think they're both going to make a profit, actually,
0:32:09 > 0:32:12with any justice, but the most profit in relation to the purchase
0:32:12 > 0:32:16price has to be - for my eye - your writing set.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19So will you bung that on that little clippie on top of that,
0:32:19 > 0:32:21so it makes it perfectly clear where I've committed.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24Well, we've enjoyed doing that, Anita. Thank you very much.
0:32:24 > 0:32:25But right now,
0:32:25 > 0:32:29we're heading off to the Geffrye Museum in London's East End.
0:32:29 > 0:32:30How lovely.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47This may look like a line of almshouses to you.
0:32:47 > 0:32:53Well, you'd be right, because it once was a series of almshouses.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Except that in 1914,
0:32:55 > 0:33:01the place was knocked about a bit to create a museum.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04And a rather interesting one it is, too!
0:33:04 > 0:33:09The museum, named after 18th-century benefactor Robert Geffrye,
0:33:09 > 0:33:13explores the interior of the home, showing how British fashions
0:33:13 > 0:33:17and tastes have changed over the past 400 years.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20From the aspirational 20th-century designs, to the
0:33:20 > 0:33:24more functional of the 17th century and everything in between.
0:33:27 > 0:33:33Now the Victorians loved everything that was fussy and ornate
0:33:33 > 0:33:38but in the late 1860s, a movement was spawned that kicked
0:33:38 > 0:33:44back at against all those over-sentimental designs that
0:33:44 > 0:33:48had occurred before and it was called the Aesthetic Movement.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52The Aesthetic Movement became the first
0:33:52 > 0:33:57example of the phenomenon that we now call lifestyle.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00Householders were guided on how to create an artistic living space
0:34:00 > 0:34:04by the leading aesthetic movers and shakers of the time,
0:34:04 > 0:34:07based on their writings and art.
0:34:07 > 0:34:12And - hey presto - here we have Sabine Pasley's
0:34:12 > 0:34:16picture in a complementary room.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Except that the Geffrye Museum have recreated
0:34:19 > 0:34:25this Aesthetic Movement room almost as if it's a facsimile of what we've
0:34:25 > 0:34:30seen in Pasley's picture. And a jolly good job they've done, too.
0:34:30 > 0:34:35Here we've got a fireplace that's got an elaborate mirrored back
0:34:35 > 0:34:40and is bedecked in Chinese and Japanese porcelain.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44The surround is tiled with Minton blue-and-white tiles.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48In the corner, we have a fern that sits on a table.
0:34:48 > 0:34:54A table which is exotic in the same way as the Morris & Co bamboo table
0:34:54 > 0:34:58in the painting, except that this one probably came from Egypt.
0:34:58 > 0:35:02Again, we've got a circular table with a table cover that might
0:35:02 > 0:35:05have been used for playing cards.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Except that this table cover is special.
0:35:08 > 0:35:12It's bang-on trend for the Aesthetic Movement in the 1880s,
0:35:12 > 0:35:18because in 1888, Van Gogh painted his sunflowers -
0:35:18 > 0:35:23the sunflowers were the distinctive element of the Aesthetic Movement
0:35:23 > 0:35:28and embroidered underneath this tabletop are sunflowers.
0:35:28 > 0:35:33And to cap it all, we have a reproduction wallpaper
0:35:33 > 0:35:38which circumnavigates the room just underneath the ceiling moulding.
0:35:38 > 0:35:43And each element within that border paper has been
0:35:43 > 0:35:47interpreted from the Japanese and it was no wonder that this
0:35:47 > 0:35:53brand-new design was so hip amongst the Victorians of that period.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56The big question today is for us over at the auction -
0:35:56 > 0:36:01is it going to be hip - or miss - for our teams?
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Well, I can't tell you what a treat it is to trot up the road
0:36:15 > 0:36:17from Wetherby to Darlington
0:36:17 > 0:36:21to Thomas Watson's saleroom to be with Peter Robinson. Hello, Peter.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23Hi, there, Tim. It's good to see you.
0:36:23 > 0:36:28Now, to start off with, we've got 12 wooden printing blocks which
0:36:28 > 0:36:30they've cleverly spelt Bargain Hunt out of.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Yeah, I mean, I think a collection of printing blocks
0:36:33 > 0:36:35in their old box and their case and something like that,
0:36:35 > 0:36:38but it seems a little bit odd that you happen to have got these
0:36:38 > 0:36:40letters that spell Bargain Hunt, so...
0:36:40 > 0:36:45It's a cunning ploy to pull at the heart strings of the fans
0:36:45 > 0:36:49of the programme but it's a high-risk strategy, because today
0:36:49 > 0:36:54in the saleroom, there may not be many Bargain Hunt fans about, right?
0:36:54 > 0:36:57I think there will be plenty of Bargain Hunt fans about,
0:36:57 > 0:37:00but what are they going to pay for those wooden numbers?
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Will they pay a pound a number for it? That's £12.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06Yeah, well - we've put 15-20 down as an estimate.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09Well, our lot only paid £10.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12So maybe if this strategy works, they might make a pound or
0:37:12 > 0:37:15two as profit but it's not going to earn them a fortune,
0:37:15 > 0:37:17- that's for a fact. - Definitely not.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20Now, this little ingot, I think is absolutely fascinating
0:37:20 > 0:37:22and Philip got very excited about this.
0:37:22 > 0:37:29It says, "Mrs Eden, 16 Grange Terrace, Darlington, 1886."
0:37:29 > 0:37:34So does this ingot have a special association for you in the town?
0:37:34 > 0:37:37Well, Grange Terrace in Darlington is literally just round
0:37:37 > 0:37:39the corner and Thomas Watson,
0:37:39 > 0:37:44who originally started this business in 1840 in these very same
0:37:44 > 0:37:49premises we are in now - he actually lived in number 4 Grange Terrace.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53And he lived there until he died in 1883.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56So the chances are that Thomas Watson
0:37:56 > 0:38:00and Mrs Eden had the odd chat across the garden fence.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03Whether it's valuable or not I don't know but it's certainly
0:38:03 > 0:38:06sparked my interest in the history of Thomas Watson's auctioneers.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10Exactly. What's it going to be worth? A pound or two, or five?
0:38:10 > 0:38:12Well, we've put £15-20 on it.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15We tried to steer away from a pound or two.
0:38:15 > 0:38:19- I just really don't know but it's just a charming...- Yeah.
0:38:19 > 0:38:21- ..collectable.- Well, this is the place to sell it.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23So fun to see what that brings and their last item,
0:38:23 > 0:38:28- I fear they've overpaid on, which is the shoe snuffbox.- Snuffbox. Yeah.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32Early 19th century, probably, but it's had some use.
0:38:32 > 0:38:36It's a little bit worse for wear. So you know, we're 30-50 on this.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40OK, fine. Well, they paid £90 and I'm with you.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42- I think 30-50 is the right estimate for that one.- Yeah, yeah.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44They just got a bit carried away, actually.
0:38:44 > 0:38:47On the face of it, it looks as though they're definitely
0:38:47 > 0:38:50going to need their bonus buy. So let's go and have a look.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52- Good. Well, this is exciting, isn't it, Mags?- Yes.
0:38:52 > 0:38:57First up, Phil, you had £188 of leftover lolly. What did you buy?
0:38:57 > 0:39:01- It looks like the Enterprise or something!- It does!
0:39:01 > 0:39:05Well!
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Let's just pop it down properly here
0:39:07 > 0:39:11so you can see the beauty of it.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14Yeah, actually, I do quite like it. It's very um...
0:39:14 > 0:39:17You've got to think Mary Quant, Beatles, Carnaby Street.
0:39:17 > 0:39:21- Actually, I was going to say, very- '60s. It cost me 50... It cost me £50.- Right.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24And I think there's no middle ground with this.
0:39:24 > 0:39:28It's either going to make £80-90, or 30 quid.
0:39:28 > 0:39:32But what does auctioneer Peter think about Phil's table?
0:39:32 > 0:39:36Now I have a funny feeling that's right up your street, somehow.
0:39:36 > 0:39:40Oh, how did you guess, Tim, how did you guess? Yeah! I'm not very confident.
0:39:40 > 0:39:42- You're not? To be quite honest.- No.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44It isn't a cutting edge of Darlington taste, perhaps.
0:39:44 > 0:39:48I don't think so but then, you know, times go by.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50People like different things, I might be wrong.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53So, what's your estimate on the '60s table?
0:39:53 > 0:39:56Well, we've put a, what I think is quite bold, estimate of £30 to £40.
0:39:56 > 0:39:59OK. Well, Phil paid £50.
0:39:59 > 0:40:04And on this programme I have to make a selection between the bonus buys
0:40:04 > 0:40:06as to which one I think in proportion to the price paid
0:40:06 > 0:40:08will bring the biggest profit.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12- Mm-hm.- And I did not go with the 1960s table.- No.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15'Now, what will the team make of their Tim's Ton buy?'
0:40:17 > 0:40:19These cost £60.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22And they aren't a piece of furniture in their own right.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24- These have come from either side of a big cabinet.- Yeah.
0:40:24 > 0:40:25A much, much bigger cabinet
0:40:25 > 0:40:28that's made out of oak in about the 1920s or '30s.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32These have a function and I don't think there's any... Personally,
0:40:32 > 0:40:35I don't think there's anyway that these won't make a profit.
0:40:35 > 0:40:37I think they'll make between £80 and £120, that's what I think.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40Could use it for my earrings and...
0:40:40 > 0:40:43Your collection of glasses, perhaps? Yeah. Very nice.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46OK, so, there's a difficult choice there, isn't there? In a minute,
0:40:46 > 0:40:49when you do have to decide whether you're going to go with one or other
0:40:49 > 0:40:53of these bonus buys because they are poles apart in terms of style.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55'What's Peter got to say about Phil's cabinets?'
0:40:57 > 0:41:01Well, they... They're nice quality. They're very solid small cabinets.
0:41:01 > 0:41:05They've got mirror backs to them and space for a single shelf.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08- Solid pieces of oak and I would say, yes, from the 1930s.- Mm-hm.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10What would your estimate be, Peter?
0:41:10 > 0:41:13Well, we've put 60 to 120, which is a wide berth
0:41:13 > 0:41:16because...not sure what the interest will be.
0:41:16 > 0:41:20- But construction in them alone, the quality...- Yeah.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22Anyway, you're saying 60 to 120,
0:41:22 > 0:41:25well, that's marvellous cos he paid the £60, I made the selection
0:41:25 > 0:41:28that they're going to bring more profit than that 1960s table.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30So, this could be a win-win situation,
0:41:30 > 0:41:32I could get my reputation back!
0:41:32 > 0:41:33- You could indeed! - On the other hand...
0:41:35 > 0:41:39- ..as we know, things could go badly! But not today, hey?- No. Not today.
0:41:39 > 0:41:42- Let's be positive!- Not today. - Anyway, enough of that.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45That's it, the Reds are done, and now for the Blues.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47What a tableful they've got.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49For a kick-off, it's the large fishing reel.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53I mean, that is a large... As big a fishing reel as I've ever seen.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Exactly. And if you go down to Cornwall you get them
0:41:56 > 0:41:59- on those old boats that go out catching mackerel.- Yeah?
0:41:59 > 0:42:03And they'll have maybe 50 hooks attached to a long line like that...
0:42:03 > 0:42:05- Yeah.- ..stick it out the side of the boat.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07Wait ten minutes and then they catch 50 mackerel.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10- Then they reel them in. - Reel them all in.- Easy as that, hey?
0:42:10 > 0:42:12- It's as easy as that. - Wow. Fantastic.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Fantastic. So, what's the reel worth?
0:42:14 > 0:42:17Er, well, we've put £20 to £40 on it.
0:42:17 > 0:42:21- It's a nice big piece of mahogany. - Exactly. OK, £20 paid.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24So, that should be a sure-fire winner.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27Next, is the Smiths bulkhead timepiece.
0:42:27 > 0:42:29It's a sort of boating related timepiece...
0:42:29 > 0:42:30Oh, yeah, yeah, definitely.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34Yeah. It's a Smiths one, secondary dial for seconds.
0:42:34 > 0:42:40Cylindrical brass case. Typical ship's clock. Not an early one.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42It doesn't have the name of the ship on it so, you know,
0:42:42 > 0:42:45we're lacking interest in that way, but it's a clock...
0:42:45 > 0:42:48But if you just want one for the kitchen it's rather a stylish...
0:42:48 > 0:42:52- Yeah, absolutely.- Exactly.- The estimate is £30 to £50.- Oh, dear.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54- Oh, dear?- I had a horrible feeling you were going to say that.
0:42:54 > 0:42:55They paid £100 for this.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57- PETER INHALES SHARPLY - That's quite rich.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Well, if you thought you got off the hook,
0:42:59 > 0:43:02you have to move forward now with the times.
0:43:02 > 0:43:10Into the Mamod 1972 unused Showmans live steam engine.
0:43:10 > 0:43:15Yep. Yeah, I mean, the condition is great, the box is still here.
0:43:15 > 0:43:19The booklets and all the pieces. It's in great condition.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21I mean, toy collectors, bit of online interest...
0:43:21 > 0:43:23Where might we get to with this, do you think?
0:43:23 > 0:43:27Well, we've got an estimate of 40 to 60 on it.
0:43:27 > 0:43:30Just not sure how well the condition and the box etc,
0:43:30 > 0:43:31is going to carry it...
0:43:31 > 0:43:34Well, it needs to carry it quite a lot because they paid £110.
0:43:34 > 0:43:37- Did they really?- They did.- Oh, wow. - £110 is quite brave, isn't it?
0:43:37 > 0:43:40- It is brave.- Yeah. And it's very, very, very, very risky.
0:43:40 > 0:43:43In which case, they're definitely going to need their bonus buy,
0:43:43 > 0:43:45so, let's go and have a look at it.
0:43:47 > 0:43:49- Oh.- Ooh!- Ooh, now then.
0:43:49 > 0:43:54I bought you a nice little Art Deco writing set.
0:43:54 > 0:43:59The handles are made of plastic but don't let that put you off
0:43:59 > 0:44:02because we have this lovely geometric pattern.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05It's very, very stylish.
0:44:05 > 0:44:08And you guys are a pair of stylish guys,
0:44:08 > 0:44:09- so, I thought you might like that. - THEY LAUGH
0:44:09 > 0:44:12- Can I have a look?- Yeah. So, what do you think?
0:44:12 > 0:44:15- Well, I like it. Keith, it's your decision.- Yeah.
0:44:15 > 0:44:19When you say Art Deco, about what date is it?
0:44:19 > 0:44:22- Date, probably 1930s, 1940s.- Mm-hm.
0:44:22 > 0:44:27- 64,000 question... - Are you dying to ask?- How much?
0:44:27 > 0:44:31- £20.- Oh, right. - So, it was a good £20 worth.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34Will you double your money, do you think? You might do, mightn't you?
0:44:34 > 0:44:38Erm... We could do, on a good day. It certainly deserves, er,
0:44:38 > 0:44:41£25 to £30. OK.
0:44:41 > 0:44:45But I'm not going to push myself any further than that.
0:44:45 > 0:44:46'So, for the viewers at home,
0:44:46 > 0:44:49'let's see what the auctioneer thinks about Anita's pen set.'
0:44:50 > 0:44:53Now, Anita's gone out and got one of her favourites.
0:44:53 > 0:44:57A little 1930s desk set. Looks like onyx, but actually it's plastic.
0:44:57 > 0:45:00- Yep, yep.- But it is complete, isn't it...- It is complete.
0:45:00 > 0:45:03- ..and in good nick?- Yeah. Little used, if at all.
0:45:03 > 0:45:06The pen nib is still there, as you can see. The seal, letter opener...
0:45:07 > 0:45:10- It's a nice lot. - It's the team's bonus buy.
0:45:10 > 0:45:14She had £70 of leftover lolly to spend.
0:45:14 > 0:45:16How much do you think that set's going to bring?
0:45:16 > 0:45:19- Well, we've put 20 to 30 on it.- OK.
0:45:19 > 0:45:23Don't worry a scrap, she only paid £20 of her £70
0:45:23 > 0:45:27- of leftover lolly because she's jolly canny, that girl.- Yeah.
0:45:27 > 0:45:30Cos I think at £20 you're going to turn...
0:45:30 > 0:45:32You're going to turn that into £40, I think.
0:45:32 > 0:45:37- That's my suspicion, and my hope, and my fervent call to arms.- Right.
0:45:37 > 0:45:38- No pressure.- No pressure, no.
0:45:38 > 0:45:42'That's the bonus buy. Now, for the Tim's Ton buy.
0:45:42 > 0:45:44'Let's see what the team thinks, hey.'
0:45:44 > 0:45:46- Anita, tell us about it. - SHE LAUGHS
0:45:46 > 0:45:49Well, I'm still in the Art Deco period,
0:45:49 > 0:45:52and it's a period that I personally like very much.
0:45:52 > 0:45:56And I thought two good-looking blokes like yourself might fancy
0:45:56 > 0:45:59a pair of good-looking birds.
0:45:59 > 0:46:01Take a bird, then, Pete.
0:46:01 > 0:46:04- See what you make of them. - This is a dressing table set.
0:46:04 > 0:46:08It's European, perhaps Czechoslovakian, um,
0:46:08 > 0:46:12moulded glass, in this lovely amber colour.
0:46:12 > 0:46:15And I paid £60.
0:46:15 > 0:46:18OK, chaps. Two bonus buys to consider.
0:46:18 > 0:46:21You don't pick until after the sale of the first three items,
0:46:21 > 0:46:23and you don't have to then pick either of them,
0:46:23 > 0:46:25if you don't want to.
0:46:25 > 0:46:29'What does the auctioneer think about Anita's glass trinket set?'
0:46:29 > 0:46:31This is Tim's Ton coming up, look.
0:46:31 > 0:46:33Which is a pretty standard
0:46:33 > 0:46:35moulded amber glass...
0:46:36 > 0:46:38..dressing table set.
0:46:38 > 0:46:39Couple of candlesticks.
0:46:39 > 0:46:43Couple of pots for your pins and bits and bobs.
0:46:43 > 0:46:44How do you rate it, Peter?
0:46:44 > 0:46:48Well, for trinket sets it's quite a nice one, I think.
0:46:48 > 0:46:51You know, it's strong Art Deco, the figure candlesticks are very nice.
0:46:51 > 0:46:53The frosted decoration in the tray.
0:46:53 > 0:46:56- It's a good example for an amber glass trinket set.- Mm-hm?
0:46:56 > 0:46:59Sort of, little bits and pieces, though, don't you think?
0:46:59 > 0:47:03- A bit bitty, or...?- Well, well, it is, but that is a trinket set.- OK.
0:47:03 > 0:47:07- So, how much then, for the whole set?- Well, we've put 30 to 60 on it.
0:47:07 > 0:47:09Did you? Well, she paid 60.
0:47:09 > 0:47:12So, on the basis of the estimate,
0:47:12 > 0:47:16she is not going to make anything like the proportion of profit
0:47:16 > 0:47:22that I've predicted on her Art Deco pen and letter opening set.
0:47:22 > 0:47:25- So, we should be in the right. You taking the sale today?- Indeed, Tim.
0:47:25 > 0:47:28- Yep, can't wait.- Great. We're in safe hands. Thanks, Peter.
0:47:28 > 0:47:31MUSIC: No Place I'd Rather Be by Clean Bandit
0:47:35 > 0:47:40- Now, Margaret, Steve... Ha-ha, how are you feeling?- Er...- Nervous!
0:47:40 > 0:47:42- Nervous, yeah!- Are you?- Yeah.
0:47:42 > 0:47:45Anything in particular you brought that you're worried about, Mags?
0:47:45 > 0:47:50- Um... One item, we're a little bit, sort of, concerned about.- Snuff box.
0:47:50 > 0:47:51The snuff box. The snuff boot.
0:47:51 > 0:47:54I have to say the auctioneer did not think so much of it.
0:47:54 > 0:47:55He put £30 to £50 on it.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58But you have got two bonus buys to fall back on today.
0:47:58 > 0:48:00And that's kind of handy - well, it may be.
0:48:00 > 0:48:05Anyway, first up are the spelling blocks, and here they come.
0:48:05 > 0:48:08Wooden printing blocks that, by coincidence, spell Bargain Hunt.
0:48:08 > 0:48:10TIM LAUGHS
0:48:10 > 0:48:11So, there we go!
0:48:11 > 0:48:14So, let's have £10 to start me off on. At £10...
0:48:14 > 0:48:1515, can I say?
0:48:15 > 0:48:17At £10 bid, at £10...
0:48:17 > 0:48:2015, can I say for them? 15, thank you, sir.
0:48:20 > 0:48:23At £15. 20 anywhere else?
0:48:23 > 0:48:25At £15, they're going to be sold in the seating
0:48:25 > 0:48:27in the middle of the room at £15 for the lot.
0:48:29 > 0:48:31Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Um...
0:48:32 > 0:48:34Plus £5, that's good.
0:48:34 > 0:48:36Now, this little ingot...
0:48:36 > 0:48:40Interesting little lot there, the address key ingot
0:48:40 > 0:48:43for Grange Terrace, Darlington, 1885, just round the corner.
0:48:43 > 0:48:49Would be a residential house, years ago. And £10 to start me. £10.
0:48:49 > 0:48:52- £15 for it, a little bit of local history.- Come on, it's local!
0:48:52 > 0:48:54At £10... 15, 20.
0:48:54 > 0:48:5625.
0:48:56 > 0:49:00At £20, gentleman seated on my right, at £20. 25 anywhere for it?
0:49:00 > 0:49:04At £20, then, it's going to be sold to my right at £20 only.
0:49:04 > 0:49:07Well done, Phil, that's another plus £8.
0:49:07 > 0:49:09There you go, you're getting on here. That's plus 13.
0:49:09 > 0:49:13- Ah, this is the one.- Now... The old boot.
0:49:13 > 0:49:14At £20.
0:49:14 > 0:49:16At £20. 25, 30, 35.
0:49:17 > 0:49:21At 40, 5, 50, 45. At £45.
0:49:21 > 0:49:2350, can I say?
0:49:23 > 0:49:2750, 5. 60, 5. 70.
0:49:27 > 0:49:30At 65, your bid, madam. 70, new bidder.
0:49:30 > 0:49:35At £70 I'm bid. At £70. At £70... 75, can I say anywhere?
0:49:35 > 0:49:38At £70, gentleman right in the doorway. 75 anywhere?
0:49:38 > 0:49:42Shaking our heads. Goes to the gentleman at £70.
0:49:42 > 0:49:44- GAVEL BANGS - £70.
0:49:44 > 0:49:47Bad luck, I can't bear it. That's minus £20.
0:49:47 > 0:49:52- Were plus 13, you're now minus seven.- Oh!- Which is tough, actually.
0:49:52 > 0:49:55- Really tough to take. The rollercoaster of life, hey?- Yep.
0:49:55 > 0:49:58- Yeah.- Anyway, now, the bonus buys.
0:49:58 > 0:50:03- You've got the melamine-finished '60s drinks table.- Yeah.
0:50:03 > 0:50:07Or, you've got the two display cases. Or, nothing.
0:50:07 > 0:50:11- We're going to go with the display...- Cabinets.
0:50:11 > 0:50:14- ..cabinets.- You've decided this, have you?- We like both.
0:50:14 > 0:50:18- We like them both.- We were torn. Pity we can't have both.- OK.
0:50:18 > 0:50:20So, you're going to go with Tim's Ton.
0:50:20 > 0:50:24Tim's Ton cost Phil £60, yes? You've made that decision now.
0:50:24 > 0:50:27That will be your chosen bonus buy.
0:50:27 > 0:50:31I can tell you that the auctioneer's estimate is £60 to £120 on that lot.
0:50:31 > 0:50:34- Oh, right, OK. - So, on the basis of the estimate,
0:50:34 > 0:50:36you seem to have made the right decision.
0:50:36 > 0:50:41We will sell, though, first the 1960s retro table
0:50:41 > 0:50:43which Phil paid £50 for.
0:50:43 > 0:50:46And if it makes a profit, that profit will go to charity.
0:50:46 > 0:50:50- Fantastic.- Anyway, first up will be the team's bonus buy.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52The retro table and here it comes.
0:50:52 > 0:50:55£10 to start. At £10, 15.
0:50:55 > 0:50:5715, 20.
0:50:57 > 0:51:00At £15. 20, 25.
0:51:00 > 0:51:0330. £25, the lady at the back standing.
0:51:03 > 0:51:06At £25, for the retro coffee table... 30, 35.
0:51:06 > 0:51:0840, thank you. 45.
0:51:08 > 0:51:1050, make it.
0:51:10 > 0:51:15Nope? 45, then, the lady in front of me for £45, being sold at £45.
0:51:15 > 0:51:21Very close, Phil. Minus £5. Now, the chosen bonus buy, Tim's Ton.
0:51:21 > 0:51:24Here they come, the display cases.
0:51:24 > 0:51:27£40 to start. At £40 for the pair.
0:51:27 > 0:51:32At £40 ... 45, can I say for the pair? 45.
0:51:32 > 0:51:3450, 5. 60.
0:51:34 > 0:51:37At £60, commission bid. At £60.
0:51:37 > 0:51:3865, anywhere?
0:51:38 > 0:51:40- At £60. Going to be sold...- Come on!
0:51:40 > 0:51:42..at £60. 65, thank you.
0:51:42 > 0:51:45At £60, the lady's bid, the commission's out, at £65,
0:51:45 > 0:51:48being sold at £65.
0:51:48 > 0:51:52At £65. Well done, Phil. That is a profit of £5.
0:51:52 > 0:51:54That is £5 profit.
0:51:54 > 0:51:59You were minus £7 which means you are now minus £2!
0:51:59 > 0:52:02How terrible is that?! But, yet, it's rather wonderful, isn't it?
0:52:02 > 0:52:05- Yes.- Anyway.- Could have been worse. - Yeah, could have been worse.
0:52:05 > 0:52:07- Could have been a lot worse. - Actually, those cabinets,
0:52:07 > 0:52:10there's a lot of money still in those cabinets, isn't there?
0:52:10 > 0:52:13Anyway, not their day, I'm afraid but overall, then, minus £2.
0:52:13 > 0:52:17It's as close as you could be to a sheet of Bronco.
0:52:17 > 0:52:20In which case, don't say a word to the Blues, all right?
0:52:20 > 0:52:23And all will be revealed in a moment. Okey-doke.
0:52:23 > 0:52:24Thank you very much.
0:52:24 > 0:52:27MUSIC: Locked Out Of Heaven by Bruno Mars
0:52:30 > 0:52:34- Now, Keith, Peter. This is exciting, isn't it?- Yes, absolutely!
0:52:34 > 0:52:36- Do you know how the Reds got on? - Riveting!- No, no idea.
0:52:36 > 0:52:39But you've got the double bonus buy to fall back on, which is good.
0:52:39 > 0:52:41First up, though, is your fishing reel.
0:52:41 > 0:52:44You paid £20, and the auctioneer's never seen such a big one.
0:52:44 > 0:52:46LAUGHTER
0:52:46 > 0:52:47And here it comes.
0:52:47 > 0:52:50£15 to start me off. At £15.
0:52:50 > 0:52:5220 I'm bid. At £20, the fishing reel.
0:52:52 > 0:52:54At £20. 25, can I say?
0:52:54 > 0:52:58- At £20... 25, 30. 35... - Keep going, keep going.
0:52:59 > 0:53:02At £30 for the lot, now. 35 anywhere?
0:53:02 > 0:53:05Being sold at £30 for the lot.
0:53:05 > 0:53:09£30 for the lot, plus £10, it's nothing to be sniffed at, there.
0:53:09 > 0:53:11Good start, boys.
0:53:11 > 0:53:14- PETER:- A brass ship's clock. Lot number 361.
0:53:14 > 0:53:16£20 to start for the clock.
0:53:16 > 0:53:195, I have. £25, 30 now.
0:53:19 > 0:53:2030, 5, 40, 5...

0:53:47 > 0:53:49Original box.

0:53:53 > 0:53:55- Oh, dear.- Oh.
0:53:55 > 0:53:5745, can I say? Mint condition.

0:54:16 > 0:54:20£55, oh, no. It loses you £55.
0:54:20 > 0:54:22That is minus £80.
0:54:23 > 0:54:26Minus 80. Don't sound too bad if you say it quick.
0:54:26 > 0:54:29Anyway, minus £80. So, what are we going to do about these bonus buys?
0:54:29 > 0:54:31You don't have to do it with either of them,
0:54:31 > 0:54:33if you believe that £80 will win you the competition.
0:54:33 > 0:54:36If you don't, you can go with one or the other.
0:54:36 > 0:54:39And that might be the Deco desk set, £20 that cost.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41Or the trinket set for £60.
0:54:41 > 0:54:44- Or neither.- Er, we...
0:54:44 > 0:54:47After great discussion, I've decided on the...
0:54:48 > 0:54:49- ..dressing table set.- Have you?
0:54:49 > 0:54:53- Yes. OK.- Oh. Don't look like that.
0:54:54 > 0:54:56No, no. You've got to start somewhere, haven't you?
0:54:56 > 0:54:59I mean, it's the judgment of, I don't know who, um,
0:54:59 > 0:55:02because how can you possibly say which is going to do best?
0:55:02 > 0:55:03It's very, very tough.
0:55:03 > 0:55:07- So, that's going to be it, is it? - Yeah.- Yep.- £60 worth.
0:55:07 > 0:55:09- That's our decision.- £60. That's where the investment sits.
0:55:09 > 0:55:10Very good.
0:55:10 > 0:55:13The first lot to come up is the desk set, and we're going
0:55:13 > 0:55:16to sell that anyway, and if it makes a profit that goes to charity.
0:55:16 > 0:55:18- So, Anita's efforts are not wasted. - Right.
0:55:18 > 0:55:20If it makes a profit it's not a waste of time.
0:55:20 > 0:55:24Here it comes, the Deco desk set, for £20. Here we go.
0:55:24 > 0:55:28£15 to start. At £15 for the Art Deco pen set.

0:55:42 > 0:55:44Bit of profit for the charity, well done.
0:55:44 > 0:55:47Now, this is the one that you've gone with. This is Tim's Ton.
0:55:47 > 0:55:49£60 paid.
0:55:49 > 0:55:51£30 to start. £30 I have.
0:55:51 > 0:55:54At £30. 35, can we say? 35 I'm bid.
0:55:54 > 0:55:5740, 5, 50, 5...
0:55:57 > 0:55:59- At £50 with me...- Oh.
0:55:59 > 0:56:03- At 60? At £60 bid.- Come on, you can do better than that.
0:56:03 > 0:56:04- ANITA:- One more.- One more.
0:56:04 > 0:56:06£60 for the set.
0:56:06 > 0:56:08Being sold at £60. All down.
0:56:08 > 0:56:12He sold it at £60. Wiped its face. No profit, no loss.
0:56:12 > 0:56:16No pain, no gain. You are still minus £80, OK?
0:56:16 > 0:56:18- Thank you very much. - Which could be a winning score.
0:56:18 > 0:56:21Don't say a word to the Reds till we get together,
0:56:21 > 0:56:22- and all will be revealed.- OK. Right.
0:56:22 > 0:56:25You've been a champion couple of sports.
0:56:25 > 0:56:26We don't want to tell anybody!
0:56:26 > 0:56:29MUSIC: Kids by MGMT
0:56:32 > 0:56:35- Well, teams, this is exciting, isn't it? We had a great day?- Absolutely!
0:56:35 > 0:56:38For our one-hour special programme.
0:56:38 > 0:56:40Instead of being able to report enormous profits,
0:56:40 > 0:56:43I'm sorry to say that neither of the teams today
0:56:43 > 0:56:45- are going home with any profit. - LAUGHING AND GROANING
0:56:45 > 0:56:47- Oh, well!- But there is a chasm between them
0:56:47 > 0:56:49in terms of their losses.
0:56:49 > 0:56:53And the team which is way, way back, I have to say, are the Blues.
0:56:53 > 0:56:56- ALL:- Aw! - LAUGHTER
0:56:56 > 0:56:59Minus £80 is your total at the end of the day.
0:56:59 > 0:57:02One good point, though, is that one of the bonus buys that you rejected,
0:57:02 > 0:57:07but expertly found by Anita, did make a profit - £5 -
0:57:07 > 0:57:10which we shall be donating to charity. So, thank you for that.
0:57:10 > 0:57:12- But have you had a nice time, Keith? - Absolutely gorgeous.
0:57:12 > 0:57:14It's been amazing, hasn't it?
0:57:14 > 0:57:16We started off well with that £10 fishing reel,
0:57:16 > 0:57:19your themed product, you fishermen.
0:57:19 > 0:57:21- And, then, it all went off the hook. - LAUGHTER
0:57:21 > 0:57:25- Yeah!- Literally downstream. Anyway, as long as you've had a nice time.
0:57:25 > 0:57:28And you've been very sporting about this, as I would expect.
0:57:28 > 0:57:29Anyway, thank you very much.
0:57:29 > 0:57:33- But the victors today, who managed to lose only- £2. Ah!
0:57:33 > 0:57:35You had a couple of swift profits, little profits on
0:57:35 > 0:57:38the printing block jobbies for Bargain Hunt,
0:57:38 > 0:57:40and that key ingot job which was fun.
0:57:40 > 0:57:43- Yeah.- Then it started to go slightly wrong, actually.
0:57:43 > 0:57:45Until you got to the bonus buy.
0:57:45 > 0:57:48And actually those cases did make a profit, they made a £5 profit,
0:57:48 > 0:57:50but not enough to drag you back from the brink.
0:57:50 > 0:57:52- Just a little more. - Just a little more.
0:57:52 > 0:57:55Well, let that be your motto for next time.
0:57:55 > 0:57:58- But Mags, have you enjoyed it? - Absolutely wonderful.
0:57:58 > 0:58:00- We've loved having you. Steve, it's been good?- Fantastic.
0:58:00 > 0:58:04Very good. Well, join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?
0:58:04 > 0:58:05- ALL:- Yes!
