0:00:02 > 0:00:07The antiques are poised for perusing. The stallholders are standing by.
0:00:07 > 0:00:12Our teams are chomping at the bit to get out there so let's go bargain hunting.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38It is not unusual for our teams to find a bargain
0:00:38 > 0:00:43and with over 1,000 stalls at the Royal Welsh Showground there is no excuse.
0:00:43 > 0:00:47MUSIC: "It's Not Unusual" by Tom Jones
0:00:47 > 0:00:51We give them a helping hand with their very own expert
0:00:51 > 0:00:55and we chuck in £300 to boot.
0:00:55 > 0:01:00All they have to do is to go and find their three items in one hour.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02What could be easier than that?
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Gosh, we have got some brainy contestants on our programme today.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Two teams of students.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16For the Reds we have Jennifer and Lauren
0:01:16 > 0:01:18and for the Blues we have David and Emily.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Welcome. That is absolutely fantastic.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Jennifer, you are terribly keen on shoes?
0:01:23 > 0:01:30- Yes. I have about 300ish pairs. I think I have a couple more since then.- 300 pairs of shoes?- Yes.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33- Do you have a foot fetish? - No. I don't know.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37I just like... I was obsessed with getting loads of different colours of shoes.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40I had one in every colour of the rainbow and I went mad from there.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- What do you collect?- Sugar tongs. - Sugar tongs?
0:01:42 > 0:01:47- Honestly. I have over 120 pairs.- You never have?- Yes, I have all sorts.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50- How did that start?- My auntie got me a pair when I was christened
0:01:50 > 0:01:54- and it's spiralled from there.- Do you like one lump or two? - Two.- Two lumps.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55The bigger the better.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Moving on - this is a daytime programme!
0:01:58 > 0:02:01What are you going to do when you have graduated?
0:02:01 > 0:02:04We both want to do a masters and then a PGC so we can teach.
0:02:04 > 0:02:05Very good luck with that
0:02:05 > 0:02:10- and on Bargain Hunt today.- Thank you.- Excellent. Now for the Blues.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12- Emily, you and David are both music students.- Yes we are.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15We are both studying at the Royal Welsh College.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17I am studying to be a classical singer.
0:02:17 > 0:02:22What about a trill? Are you going to be able to give us a little phrase from your repertoire?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- Anything?- Anything.
0:02:24 > 0:02:25OK.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29SHE SINGS IN GERMAN
0:02:47 > 0:02:54- Oh, God!- It' not "Oh, God"! It's great! A round of applause for that.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58You have to be so brave to do that and such a beautiful voice. Well done.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00How did you two meet?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- It was a freshers week toga party. - It was.
0:03:02 > 0:03:07We all had bedsheets on to customise, to look like a toga.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12- It sounds a good old student excuse! - It was.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16The fire alarm went off and we were out in the pouring rain for about one hour and it went see-through.
0:03:16 > 0:03:21- You had the wet bedsheet, competition?- Yes.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25David, you got to see more of Emily than you had reckoned on.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- You could say that.- What are you studying?- I study trombone
0:03:28 > 0:03:32at the same college as Emily, The Royal Welsh College.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35You may be a dab hand at music, but you are not so swift with the driving tests are you?
0:03:35 > 0:03:39No. The first test I took I went the wrong way round a roundabout
0:03:39 > 0:03:42which did not make my examiner particularly happy.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46- Not terribly popular, that!- No. - You have got a secret collection.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48I am a bit embarrassed to say about it,
0:03:48 > 0:03:52but when I was a small child I collected British stamps.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Why are you embarrassed about that?- It is not particularly cool.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00- It's not cool to be a stamp collector?- No.- I would not say that.
0:04:00 > 0:04:06Anyway, what is cool is the £300. Do you like the idea of £300?
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Look at her snatch that. You know the rules. The experts wait.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Off you go. Very good luck.
0:04:12 > 0:04:18With all that youth and vitality will the experts have the energy to keep up?
0:04:20 > 0:04:24And our two experts today to keep the reds ship-shape...
0:04:26 > 0:04:28..it's Capt David Harper.
0:04:30 > 0:04:34And racing round with the blues, it's the fiery Paul Laidlaw.
0:04:42 > 0:04:48- So girls, what do you think of this? - I love it.- It is really cool. What is it?
0:04:49 > 0:04:53You don't even know what it is. Have a feel of it.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- That's really solid.- It's heavy. - It is really nice.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00It's a little cube made out of Rosewood with bone inlay. It's not ivory.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03It's like a cowbell or something.
0:05:03 > 0:05:08- Each little image tells a story. - That's really cool.- Do you know what it is?- No idea.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13I believe it is a fortune teller's cube.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17They would roll it or throw it in the air
0:05:17 > 0:05:22and depending upon which image is looking at you, like that, it tells a story.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25So go on, throw it in the air. Let's see how lucky you are.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Don't drop it, for goodness sake. Aha!
0:05:27 > 0:05:32How interesting. That tells you you are going to marry a very wealthy man,
0:05:32 > 0:05:36super-duper looking, loads of children,
0:05:36 > 0:05:40you will live to 120, and you will become a famous pop star.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- Wow!- It's what you've always wanted.- Dream come true.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47- I bet you want to buy it, don't you? - Yeah. How much is it?
0:05:47 > 0:05:5045, he's asking for it. 40 is all I can get it for.
0:05:50 > 0:05:56- But, you know, it's a chancy number. It's very interesting. I just love it.- I really like it.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00- It's cool.- It's different. I really like horoscopes and things.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- Could it do well? - It could.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07It'll appeal to people who collect Oriental pieces of art.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12You know, tactile little things and talking pieces. You know, it's got age.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15It could be late 19th-century, more likely into the 20th century,
0:06:15 > 0:06:19- so it has age enough to appeal to somebody who wants something antique-y.- Yeah.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- Will we go for it.- Yeah, cool.
0:06:22 > 0:06:27And the Reds took a chance and rolled out £40 on the psychic die.
0:06:31 > 0:06:37- What you think of this? It's a stylish object. - It has a nice shape.- Good form.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41People are looking for objects which cry out, catch the eye. Nothing dull.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45And it's certainly far from dull. What do we have?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47A big pewter, goblet form.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50We'll call it a vase, a footed ball.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53With just a touch of the Arts and Crafts.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57That is a movement that harks back to traditional hand manufacturing techniques.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00You can see what look like rivets here.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04Punched decoration mimicking earlier constructional methods.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- A planished finish here, that's a hammered finish.- Right.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Other than it being pretty, it tells a story.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14It says, engraved here, to Hugh and Vera, as a token of esteem
0:07:14 > 0:07:19and appreciation from the following members of Champagne Time.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21There you have it. Make mine a big one.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25If you turn it round and look at the members of Champagne Time -
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Mercedes, Ambrose, Gladys West -
0:07:28 > 0:07:32it tells a story. I would love to know more about Champagne Time.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Is it getting any better? - Definitely. I noticed there was
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- a bit of damage inside. Will that affect the value?- Good question. Always a good question.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43- What would you do with that? - Put a plant in?- Absolutely.
0:07:43 > 0:07:48Somebody's put a pot in there, scratched the surface a little. It's of no consequence.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51But pewter is soft and malleable and easily damaged.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54If I'd seen cracks, big bruises, I'd say walk away.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57It's a difficult medium to repair.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00But we have got absolutely nothing to worry about there.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03I think we should look at the price.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Which is...£34.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- That sounds all right at this stage. - We can get that lower, I reckon.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12- I like that! - THEY LAUGH
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Are you guys up for it? Do you want this?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Let's have a bit of a haggle. - I like your style.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24The Blues popped £24 on the pewter champagne vessel.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28This falls under the category of pearlware, OK?
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Second quarter 19th century, English earthenware,
0:08:31 > 0:08:33but the glaze - see where it's gathereed?
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Just inside the rim. It's a wee bit thicker there than elsewhere.
0:08:36 > 0:08:42And there's just a touch of that blue, and it gives just a pearly feel about it.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- OK?- It has got a nice sheen. - It has.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47It's printed with this little doggerel verse here.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50"Remember me when this you see."
0:08:50 > 0:08:54A pretty little souvenir, a little tourist piece. And what is it?
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Well, where I come from, I'd call this a chanter.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59To you, it's a chamber pot.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03Now , these things are reproduced, and you have to be careful when you're buying such.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07For a piece that wants to be 160 years old, I'd want to see evidence of that age.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Such a piece would gather dust.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Just where that pretty little loop handle meets the body there,
0:09:13 > 0:09:16there's a wee gathering of dust in there.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19The gentleman was asking £28 for it. What do you think?
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- I can bargain him down a bit. But I can imagine that in my house.- Yeah.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24- It's definitely...- A nice piece on the mantelpiece.- Yeah.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28If you get that down a little more, we make a little profit.
0:09:28 > 0:09:29Brilliant.
0:09:29 > 0:09:34£25 was plop-plopped by the Blues on the chamber pot.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- What about this? - That's nice.- That's pretty, I think.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- I like that.- That is pretty, actually, isn't it? Yeah.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47It's a nice, big, fat vase, cloisonne, which is basically,
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- it's not pottery, it's basically a metal vase.- Oh, right.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Then covered in coloured enamel, and if you look closely,
0:09:54 > 0:09:58you'll just see tiny bits of stringing in between each flower.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00That would have taken a lot of effort, then.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04A humungous amount of work. This is not a factory made piece.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07It's made by hand by a real artist.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- So where do you think it's from? - I don't know, it looks oriental.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14It is. Absolutely oriental, yeah.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Well done. It's Japanese.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21It's from the Meiji period, which is 1868 to 1912.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- How much is it?- 75.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26The best we can get it for is £55.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30- Yeah.- That's... - Yeah, let's go for it.- Yeah.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- You really like this, don't you? - Yeah, I really like it.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- There's a chance, isn't there?- Yeah.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- Shall we have it, girls?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46And 55 smackers were laid out by the Reds for the Japanese vase.
0:10:46 > 0:10:52If things get unbalanced - ha-ha! - at auction, our teams have got one last resort.
0:10:52 > 0:10:58And that is that all the leftover lolly will be given to their experts to buy a bonus buy.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01The big question is, will they trust the expert's choice?
0:11:09 > 0:11:11What do you think, Paul?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13Well, I like, first impression.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15You tell me, what drew you to this?
0:11:15 > 0:11:16- The colours.- Yes.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19- And the shape?- Mm, it's nice.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22There's a touch of Carter Stabler Adams Poole
0:11:22 > 0:11:25and a mark would really elevate them at this stage.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29- Can you see anything, guys? - I can't see anything, no.- No.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32I don't think we missed it. But the price.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35£75.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39You put a name on them, 50 to 80, 80 to 120, who knows?
0:11:39 > 0:11:42As a speculative purchase, non-attributed at this stage,
0:11:42 > 0:11:46I've got to be honest, it's 30 to 50 is the right estimate at auction.
0:11:46 > 0:11:51- What do you think?- We could try and get the price down. - Yeah.- I think you'll have to.
0:11:51 > 0:11:56And the DOE-eyed Blues got the bookends for £60.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Let's hope that's not too DEER.
0:12:03 > 0:12:08David, Jen, come and look at this. I think it's fab. Look at that.
0:12:08 > 0:12:13Let's have a look. It's almost so naff that it's, like, mega-trendy.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- Fab, yes, retro.- It's exactly that.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Well, Poole Pottery. I should have known. Very good maker.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23- How old do you think that is, then? - '60s, '70s?
0:12:23 > 0:12:26- Given the colours, I would have thought '70s.- Hmmm.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30You two could be interior designers. You've really got it, haven't you?
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- We've done our homework! - You're absolutely bang on.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35It's more likely 1970s,
0:12:35 > 0:12:38but that brown and that yellowy kind of mucky colour of the '70s.
0:12:38 > 0:12:43- I love it.- Yeah, you love it now, but 10, 15 years ago, they were so naff.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46And now they've come back again.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Which makes this, I think, pretty desirable.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Ah, £75.- Yeah, I know. - What do you think?
0:12:52 > 0:12:56I've had a word with the stall-owner and I can get it for £58.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- You really love it, don't you? - Yes, I love it.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- I want it!- You're getting all excited! Stop it.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04You've got to buy for profit, not take it home with you.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07What about you, Jen?
0:13:07 > 0:13:11- I like the colours. I don't really know about the print.- It's fab.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13- It's retro!- It is retro, yeah.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16I suppose it is a good make, so, you know, if you want it...
0:13:16 > 0:13:20- Please can I? Go on, let me have it. - Yeah, go on, then.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Groovy, baby!
0:13:22 > 0:13:26The Reds settled on £58 for the retro vase.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Well, how time flies when you're having fun.
0:13:36 > 0:13:41Well, the fun doesn't have to stop, but the shopping certainly does.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Let's find out what they bought.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48The Reds are predicting a profit with the fortune teller's die,
0:13:48 > 0:13:52costing £40. They've got to be joking, though.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54The Japanese vase for £55.
0:13:54 > 0:13:55A steal, or have the Reds been robbed?
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Quite likely. And the retro vase cost £58.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03The Reds will be hoping it doesn't get a retro price at auction.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Now, let's see what the Blues bought.
0:14:06 > 0:14:11Will the £24 champagne bowl pop some corks or just fizzle out at auction?
0:14:11 > 0:14:13£25 paid for the chamber pot.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16Are they just splashing the porcelain here?
0:14:16 > 0:14:21And the Blues will be hoping the £60 bookends will prop up their profits.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23They're going to need it.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39We're at the Victoria Auction Rooms in Mold with Anthony Parry,
0:14:39 > 0:14:41our auctioneer of the day.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- How very nice to see you. - Nice to see you again, Tim.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48- The Chinese fortune teller dice. Any good?- Brand-new.- Brand-new?- Yeah.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- That's my opinion.- Estimate?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Estimate...£10 to £15. If we're lucky.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- Paid 40.- Oh, dear! - So it's not so good.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01- The Meiji-period jardiniere.- Yes. - Any good?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03This one is not the best.
0:15:03 > 0:15:08This particular one, I suppose...£40 to £60.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11They paid £55, so they might just get away with it on that one.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16- The Poole Pottery vase. - I suppose £35, £40.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- £58 they paid.- Oh, dear!
0:15:19 > 0:15:23They're going to need their bonus buy. Let's go and have a look at it.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26- Lauren, Jennifer, how are you feeling?- Not too bad, thanks.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28You had a great shop up, didn't you?
0:15:28 > 0:15:33- It was a treat to see.- Thank you. - Now, you spent £153.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37You gave David £147 and he's spent it on your bonus buy.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40- Do you want to have a look at it? - I'm regretting it already.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42I don't think you two are going to like this at all.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46- I absolutely love it.- Oh.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48I think I might have been right!
0:15:49 > 0:15:53Beautiful quality, nicely carved, and I love that serpent.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Maybe it's more of a man's thing. What do you think?
0:15:56 > 0:16:00- I think ladies like bellows, don't you, girls?- It's all right, yeah.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04- They actually work.- Puff things up.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08- It's a nice action. - Nice action?- Yes.- Yeah, they're OK.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- A great talking piece. - Are they going to sell?
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- Who's going to buy them?- Someone like me? Anyone with a nice
0:16:14 > 0:16:18country cottage and a fireplace will want those bellows.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- A proper piece of working antique bit of kit.- How much are they?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Well, I paid £60 for them.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27- That's not bad. - How much d'you think it would make?
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Well, again... They might do 80.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35- Well, now the shock has gone... Cos I wasn't expecting it at all.- No.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37But, yeah, they're quite nice.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40So David reckons there may be £20 profit in those.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42But for you, the audience at home,
0:16:42 > 0:16:45let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about them.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- So, does that disturb your embers? - No.- No.- No.- Right.
0:16:48 > 0:16:53They're decorative...carved. What shall we say? Estimate £30 to £40?
0:16:53 > 0:16:59£60 David paid for those. And he rates them as a bonus buy.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Probably thinks they're Black Forest. - Where do you think they come from?
0:17:02 > 0:17:05- Burmese.- Well, Black Forest or Burmese,
0:17:05 > 0:17:09you don't rate them as much as he does,
0:17:09 > 0:17:11and that could be a problem as a bonus buy.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15Anyway, enough of that for the Reds, and over to the Blues.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18We've got the pewter footed bowl.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Does that light your fire, Tony?
0:17:20 > 0:17:24Well, it is Arts and Crafts, and it's got an interesting inscription on it,
0:17:24 > 0:17:26but I don't think it helps it at all,
0:17:26 > 0:17:29and it's a little bit bent on its pedestal.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- So what's your estimate? - Well, £10 to £15.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34£24 they paid, so that could be a struggle.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38- What about these Deco bookends? - They don't inspire me at all.
0:17:38 > 0:17:39£20 to £30.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42- They paid £60 for those, that's not so brilliant.- Oh, dear.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45What about the little jerry, the little gazunder?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47- I like that.- Ah, good!
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Interesting little item.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54- And...I would think it's going to make...£25, £35.- Great.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- They paid £25.- Oh, a chance there.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00So they should make a profit on that, which is lovely.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04But I'd say they need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06So, David, what's happened to Ems?
0:18:06 > 0:18:10Emily's gone to a singing competition today, so she can't be with us.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13Ah, that's sad. Cos I tell you, she'll win the competition.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- She sings like an angel, as we know. - She's got a beautiful voice.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18And not only is her voice beautiful.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Anyway, you managed to spend, between you, £109.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25That left Paul Laidlaw with £191. What did he spend it on?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29- Let's have a look at this.- Ooh. - Pretty little box!
0:18:29 > 0:18:33- What would this contain, we wonder? - Cigarettes or something like that?
0:18:33 > 0:18:37Oh, nothing as un-PC as that. Something much more useful.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Sophisticated Victorian lady's or gentleman's visiting-card case.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44This isn't your trade-card case, this isn't...
0:18:44 > 0:18:47"I'm Joe Bloggs, plumbing, and this is my card, madam."
0:18:47 > 0:18:51This is polite society, "We're calling for tea."
0:18:51 > 0:18:55Mother-of-pearl-veneered, these lovely lozenges here,
0:18:55 > 0:18:58and, rather importantly, in complete condition.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00So there you have it. Could you live with that?
0:19:00 > 0:19:04I wouldn't have it myself, but I can see someone buying it.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- Not much of a student object, is it, really?- No.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11I mean, visiting cards to say you're in town for a party...
0:19:11 > 0:19:14I mean, it's nice, it's a nice thought, but not really studenty.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16So how much do you think it's worth?
0:19:16 > 0:19:20Well, it's, in its sleep, worth £30 to £50.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23I paid 35, and the odds are on.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26If it goes extremely well, of course, it was all to do with you,
0:19:26 > 0:19:29and if it goes extremely badly it was all Emily's fault.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Anyway, you don't have to decide right now.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35You decide after the sale of the first three items.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38For the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42- Well, there you go, Tony, that looks in good nick.- Not too bad at all.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46Little bit missing out of the corner there, but otherwise all complete.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50It's a 19th-century one...and...
0:19:50 > 0:19:52what, £30 to £40?
0:19:52 > 0:19:55OK, £35, Paul's rating it at that,
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- and he should get away with a profit, shouldn't he?- Yeah.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Anyway, you're taking the auction.- I am, yeah.- Well, we're in safe hands.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- This room is stuffed up with folk, all right? Your first lot up.- Yep.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16The roll of the dice is about to happen.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Here comes the fortune-telling dice.
0:20:18 > 0:20:2094.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23A Chinese fortune teller's dice.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Well, who looks into the future?
0:20:26 > 0:20:29- £20?- Go on.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31A £10 note.
0:20:31 > 0:20:36Hours of fun with this. A £10 note. £10. 10.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38- 12.- Yes, go on.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41- 14, is it? £12. - Keep it going.- 12.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45- We're not getting much fortune here. - Put your hands in your pocket!- 12.
0:20:45 > 0:20:50- £12. All done at £12? - He's going to sell it for £12.- 12!
0:20:50 > 0:20:53- That is no fortune, that. £12. You're minus £28.- That is horrible.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56- Don't be depressed. - We're still in the game.
0:20:56 > 0:21:00A cloisonne enamelled jardiniere this time.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02What shall we say for that? 50?
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- Come on.- Oh, dear. 20. - Oh, for goodness sake.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10- 10, thank you.- Oh, come on.- £10.
0:21:10 > 0:21:1410, 15, 20, 25.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19- What can I say?- Come on.- Go on! - Yeah, come on.- Go on.- £25.
0:21:19 > 0:21:2330, £30? 30, 35, is there?
0:21:23 > 0:21:27- £30? All done at £30?- He's going to sell it for £30.- I can't believe it. - He's sold it for £30.
0:21:27 > 0:21:32- Oh, girls.- You're minus £25 down on that, all right?
0:21:32 > 0:21:34You're minus 53 overall.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- What's going on?- Minus 53? Come on. - Come on, Poole.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Oh, yes, this is going to do it for us.
0:21:39 > 0:21:4496, a studio pottery vase, another Poole vase there.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46What shall we say for that one, £20?
0:21:48 > 0:21:49- You paid 58.- Right!
0:21:49 > 0:21:54- £10.- Oh, come on.- Ten I've got, £10. - I never liked that vase.
0:21:54 > 0:21:5910. 12's where? 12? 14? 16?
0:21:59 > 0:22:06- No?- Yes!- 18?- Stick your hand up, Tim.- I daren't!- £20.
0:22:06 > 0:22:1122, is there? 22? 24. 26.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12- Come on.- 26.- Yes!- It's going.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16- Something's happening. - Keep it going.- 28.
0:22:16 > 0:22:1828, all done at £28?
0:22:18 > 0:22:19GAVEL BANGS
0:22:19 > 0:22:25- Devastating.- £28, that is minus £30, you are minus £83 overall.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28We was robbed. We was robbed!
0:22:28 > 0:22:31- You only spent 153, right? And you lost 83.- Good going.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33What are you going to do with the bellows?
0:22:33 > 0:22:35We'll have to go for it.
0:22:35 > 0:22:38- Definitely?- Yeah.- You're a punter! - We'll wipe his face.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40What is the estimate, Tim?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I have to tell you, now you've made your decision, it's £30-£40.
0:22:43 > 0:22:48- Oh.- You could've said before. - Honestly, I don't know.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50I said to you, are you sure you want to do it?
0:22:50 > 0:22:54You could've winked while saying it, you could've been more obvious!
0:22:54 > 0:22:55Here it comes.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Lot 100, a set of carved wooden bellows.
0:22:58 > 0:23:03- What shall we say for those, £50? - That'd be nice.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05- £30.- Oh, dear.- Dear me.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- £10.- Oh, don't!- Oh!- 10.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12- 10, 12, 14.- Come on.
0:23:12 > 0:23:1716, 18, 20.
0:23:17 > 0:23:22£20. 20, 22. Four is it? £22.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25- He's struggling at 22. - That's terrible.
0:23:25 > 0:23:32£24. £24? No. £24 is over here. At £24.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36- Oh, girls!- £24.- Horrible.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37That is minus 36.
0:23:37 > 0:23:43I'm sorry to tell you that you are minus £119.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44Winner. High five.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56First lot up then is the pewter bowl and here it comes.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00A hammered pewter two-handled footed bowl.
0:24:00 > 0:24:06What shall we say for that one, £20? A 10 pound note then?
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- It's nothing, is it?- Tidy start.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Thank you. £10, I'm bid. 12, I'm bid.
0:24:11 > 0:24:1614, 16, 18, 20.
0:24:16 > 0:24:21- 22.- Ooh!- 24, 26.- You're in profit. - 28.- We're there.- Well done, boy.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23All done at £30, no more?
0:24:23 > 0:24:25GAVEL BANGS
0:24:25 > 0:24:27- Never mind.- I expected more than that.- It's a profit.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Plus £6. Now, the bookends.
0:24:30 > 0:24:36117, a pair of ceramic bookends with the little fawns on.
0:24:36 > 0:24:4210, 12, 14, 16, 18. 18, 20.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46- 22. 24. 26.- It's going on.
0:24:46 > 0:24:53- Go on!- 28, 30. £30. 30. 32, is there?
0:24:53 > 0:24:56- £30, going at £30 then. - I can't believe this.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- GAVEL BANGS - £30. I'm afraid, David, that is minus 30 on that.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01- You're minus 24 overall.- Unlucky.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- Now, your chamber pot. - We really need a result here.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08118, this is an interesting little lot. A miniature chamber pot.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12"Remember me when this you see..."
0:25:12 > 0:25:15- Every time you...- That's it!
0:25:15 > 0:25:21You know the verse, don't you! £10, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25- Here it comes. It's going on. - 24, 26, 28.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28- 30.- Well done.- A long way to go.- 32.
0:25:28 > 0:25:3232. 34, is it, £32, are we finished?
0:25:32 > 0:25:37- GAVEL BANGS - Yes.- That's not too bad. - £32, you get £7 on that, all right?
0:25:37 > 0:25:41- Take seven off that, does that mean you're minus 17?- Right.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- You are minus £17.- We'd better go with the bonus buy. Definitely.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47- You don't think you ought to ring a friend?- No, we'll be fine.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- You don't need to phone a friend? - No, I've already spoken to her.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- Have you?- Yes. She says if we're in minus at this point,
0:25:53 > 0:25:54go for the bonus buy.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58£35 paid, the auctioneer's estimate is £30-40.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01- OK.- So you stand a reasonable chance.- Yep.- Here it is.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03122, a card case.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07Overall mother-of-pearl decoration. What shall we say for that one?
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Is it worth £50? - Yes, please.- 30 then.
0:26:12 > 0:26:1320?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Oh, dear. We've all gone very quiet. A £10 note?
0:26:18 > 0:26:23- What's going on with this? - 10, I've got in front. 15? 20.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Oh...- Go on!- 20 is over there.
0:26:25 > 0:26:3022.50 if you like. 22.50's at the back.
0:26:30 > 0:26:3225? No?
0:26:32 > 0:26:36- 22.50, the gentleman then. - I don't believe this.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40£22.50. All done at £22.50 then?
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- 25, thank you for stepping forward. - Yes, go on. Go on. Go on!
0:26:43 > 0:26:48£27.50. 30? 27.50's this side.
0:26:48 > 0:26:53- Go on!- £27.50. Any more? All done at £27.50?
0:26:53 > 0:26:57- He's going to sell it... - GAVEL BANGS - He HAS sold it. £27.50.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00We don't get down to 50ps very often on Bargain Hunt,
0:27:00 > 0:27:01I can tell you.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Anyway, I make that £7.50, minus, right?- Oh, dear.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06- Which is bad luck, Paulus.- Indeed.
0:27:06 > 0:27:13Which means you are minus £24.50. £24.50.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16What can I say, Davido? Bad luck, old fruit.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Don't tell the Reds though. That could be a winning score.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- Have you been talking to each other, you two teams.- No.- No?
0:27:36 > 0:27:38So you've no idea who is up and who is down?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41- Nope, not a clue.- Well, I can tell you you're both down.
0:27:41 > 0:27:47- HE SIGHS - And...I have to tell you that runners up today are the Reds.- Oh!
0:27:47 > 0:27:52- I mean, pretty substantially really. - What?- What with £119 down.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54- No way.- Yeah.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58- £119.- I thought we had it in the bag.- You've been good fun anyway,
0:27:58 > 0:28:00thank you very much for joining us.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02But the victor... Well, the VICTORS really.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05- You'll be able to ring Emily with the good news...- She'll be thrilled.
0:28:05 > 0:28:11- By only losing £24.50.- Oh. - Which is...not so bad, is it?
0:28:11 > 0:28:13- Not great either. - Well, it's all right.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15You did make a profit on a couple of items
0:28:15 > 0:28:20- and you've won by only losing £24.50. How about that?- Well done(!)
0:28:20 > 0:28:22- Yes!- £24.50, big margin.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26- Anyway, join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes? - ALL: Yes!
