0:00:04 > 0:00:07This, in television terms, is called a link.
0:00:07 > 0:00:12It's also a sausage, which links us with Lincolnshire,
0:00:12 > 0:00:16which is where we are today, but not looking for a load of old bangers...
0:00:16 > 0:00:21what we're looking for is bargains, so let's go banger bargain hunting!
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Mmm, that was delicious!
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Well, Bargain Hunters, today we're in the grounds
0:00:58 > 0:01:00of Grimsthorpe Castle,
0:01:00 > 0:01:04the most beautiful place, that's oozing in history.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07The big question is, though, is the fare here
0:01:07 > 0:01:11at Grimsthorpe Castle oozing with bargains?
0:01:15 > 0:01:21For one hour we'll be letting our teams loose with £300 and an expert
0:01:21 > 0:01:26to truffle around and sniff out three profitable items,
0:01:26 > 0:01:31but will they rise to the challenge and make loads of dough?
0:01:31 > 0:01:36Will they have the correct recipe for success? Only time will tell.
0:01:39 > 0:01:44Bargain Hunting for the Reds today are sisters, Penny and Elaine,
0:01:44 > 0:01:48and friends and fellow lecturers, John and Sue.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Welcome to Bargain Hunt.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53So, you reckon you've got a formula for winning today, is that right?
0:01:53 > 0:01:55- Oh, absolutely!- Definitely! - And what would that be?
0:01:55 > 0:01:57We're a formidable pair.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59We know a bargain when we see one.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02And we know what each other is thinking most of the time.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Which you would do, as sisters, because you're communicating
0:02:04 > 0:02:08- telepathically, yes? - Yes, something like that, yes.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09Now, Penny, you're a bit of a collector?
0:02:09 > 0:02:14- Yes.- Tell us about it. - Yes. I like collecting porcelain figurines, mainly.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16And which is your favourite?
0:02:16 > 0:02:20My husband and I's favourite piece is a Meissen figurine that we bought
0:02:20 > 0:02:26about ten years ago that was quite expensive but we absolutely love it to bits.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28And Elaine, do you enjoy collecting, like your sister?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30I do, but with different things.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- I like furniture.- Something a bit more chunky?- Absolutely!
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Something you can get your hands on? - Yes.- That doesn't break?
0:02:36 > 0:02:40And then I have to titivate it up and put in the house to fill yet another gap, really.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43- So having titivated it, do you ever sell on?- No. - Always for the house?
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Always for the house. - Hope you enjoy the show today.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- Thank you.- Now for the Blues. John and Sue.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52You're a lecturer at Derby College.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56- What do you lecture in? - Animal care and mainly dog grooming.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58What does that involve?
0:02:58 > 0:03:04Well, I teach students to groom dogs and do it so that they can go out and earn a living as a dog groomer.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- So have you got a few woofers yourself?- I have, yes.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- An English cocker spaniel, a Labrador retriever and a border terrier.- Gosh!
0:03:11 > 0:03:16- John, you're a lecturer at Derby College, too?- I am indeed, yeah. - And what subject do you teach?
0:03:16 > 0:03:21I teach horses, so teaching post-16 students how to ride and how to care for them.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25But there is one love in your life that might rival the horses, isn't there?
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Absolutely! Bargain Hunting!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30That's what I like to hear! You watch the programme a lot?
0:03:30 > 0:03:35My wife and I we fight to get home from work in the morning to see who gets to the television first and...
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Is she not so keen on Bargain Hunt, then?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Well, she prefers ITV Loose Women, I'm afraid!
0:03:40 > 0:03:45- Loose Women?!- But I'm always home first, so I always get my way!
0:03:45 > 0:03:47So what's the best bit of the show for you then, John?
0:03:47 > 0:03:49It's when the teams find a bargain and make a lot of money...!
0:03:49 > 0:03:53- Like what's going to happen today? - Like the Blue Team today!
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Oh, no!
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- We're very competitive, you see! - I love that! Now the money moment.
0:03:58 > 0:04:03- £300 a piece. There's your £300. - Thank you.- £300, you know the rules.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06The experts await and off you go, and very, very, very good luck.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Helping not one lot, but two lots of teams today,
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Mark Stacey is offering some fatherly guidance
0:04:13 > 0:04:14to the Red sisters.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Younger brotherly advice! The cheek of it!
0:04:17 > 0:04:20And the Blues are hoping to teach an old dog new tricks,
0:04:20 > 0:04:22in the form of David Harper.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- What do you mean? I'm not old! - You're not a dog, either.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29- I like these.- What are they?
0:04:29 > 0:04:34- They look like ash trays. - They are. They look like ash trays.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- Mark, what do you think? - Oh, I love them! A wonderful shape!
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Aren't they unusual?
0:04:38 > 0:04:41- Beautiful, aren't they?- Phenomenal. - Very sort of Art Deco-ey.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Absolutely, you're spot on, and with this engine turning,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- they're just wonderful, aren't they? - What sort of age would you put on them?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49They're hallmarked silver.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54So we've got an anchor for Birmingham, and then the letter "M"
0:04:54 > 0:04:57- which is 1936.- Oh, wow!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59That makes it about right, then.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Would it be a problem with them being ashtrays?
0:05:01 > 0:05:04It is a problem because most people don't want anything
0:05:04 > 0:05:07to do with smoking. A lot of people are giving up smoking.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10If I had them, I'd use them for little sugar
0:05:10 > 0:05:12almonds or bonbons after dinner.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16If I was putting them in for sale, I'd probably say sort of £60 to £100
0:05:16 > 0:05:18because of their very stylish shape.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21I suspect you'll have to pay in the middle of that somewhere...
0:05:21 > 0:05:24£70, £80, £90, whatever it is... but try and get them for that sort of range.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I can't promise a profit on these
0:05:27 > 0:05:29and any other profit we might make
0:05:29 > 0:05:31might go up in smoke, because of them!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33- But they are lovely items and we adore them, don't we?- Yes.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Yes, we do.- Go and flutter your eyelashes at the dealer,
0:05:36 > 0:05:38and I'll catch you later. Good luck.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40OK, will do.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42And with eyelashes all a-fluttering,
0:05:42 > 0:05:45they extinguished £80 on the ashtrays,
0:05:45 > 0:05:51but let's check out the Blues, who hopefully aren't horsing around!
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- I found this horse.- Oh, wow!
0:05:54 > 0:05:56I think it's a Beswick.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58- Yeah, it is a Beswick.- Don't you have some of these at home, Sue?
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- I do.- Tell me about it, Sue? What kind of date, then,
0:06:01 > 0:06:04bearing in mind Beswick has been making for an awful long time?
0:06:04 > 0:06:06- I really don't know. - What do you think, David?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08- You're my expert.- Am I?
0:06:08 > 0:06:11I thought I was just Tim Wonnacott's driver!
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Suddenly I'm here to talk about Beswick horses!
0:06:13 > 0:06:17Well, come on! It's got to be 1960s, I would have thought, 70s, somewhere around there.
0:06:17 > 0:06:23Condition is absolutely everything and can kill the job altogether, so you've got to look for fractures and
0:06:23 > 0:06:25repairs and that kind of thing, No breaks at all.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30Now the thing is with Beswick, of course, that values have dropped in the last few years,
0:06:30 > 0:06:36but I feel that it's a very good time to buy things like this because they can't get any cheaper.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39£65. I reckon we can get them down.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Well, we'd have to, because I think it would...
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- What do you think we could get it down to?- To sell it we'd need...
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Well, it would be nice to halve it!
0:06:46 > 0:06:51- Shall we? What do you think, David? - You're a bit rude, aren't you! Go on, have a go, yeah.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54I'll leave it to you. I think you could charm them. Have a go, then.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56You weren't wrong, David!
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Sue's charm roped the horse in for just over a pony...
0:06:59 > 0:07:01that's an incredible £30.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Well, Penny, Elaine.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06We've got our first item, but it's nice to have a little bit of a break
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- to look at our second item, isn't it?- Absolutely.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Clearly it's a three bottle decanter stand,
0:07:11 > 0:07:13but what I particularly like about it is what it's made of.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- It's made of papier mache and gilt brass.- That's unusual!
0:07:17 > 0:07:20It is unusual and then we've got three decanters.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- What do you think?- It's different.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23- Very unusual.- It is.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27- Very unusual.- And its relative simplicity is actually very nice.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29- That's what I liked. - It works well with these.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32but also what I liked about it, of course, bearing in mind
0:07:32 > 0:07:35it's a little bit tired, it needs a little bit of loving care and attention,
0:07:35 > 0:07:40it was marked up at £45, but they said we could have it for £35.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43- Oh, wow!- And £35 sounds quite a reasonable price to me.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45I mean certainly if I was putting it into sale
0:07:45 > 0:07:49I would quite happily put an estimate of £40 to £60,
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- maybe £50 to £80 on this, so I think it might be worth a bash. - Excellent!
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- I totally agree on that.- Absolutely, yeah. We'll go for that, then.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- There we are, then. Cheers!- Cheers!
0:07:58 > 0:08:01That's the spirit, but I hope that's tea they're drinking!
0:08:01 > 0:08:03They paid 35 quid for the decanters
0:08:03 > 0:08:06but it's a riot of colour over with the Blues!
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Not very long ago, a few years ago, you would
0:08:09 > 0:08:12have bypassed this thing if you'd seen it in a sale room or a shop,
0:08:12 > 0:08:16but now this kind of retro feel, this is now a funky,
0:08:16 > 0:08:18with-it, contemporary, wacky decorator's piece.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22- It's £44.- Well, it's a real interior designer's piece, isn't it?- OK.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24It's the kind of thing that will stick out like a sore thumb
0:08:24 > 0:08:29in an auction room and would look really, really well mixed amongst antiques.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32I think we really got the money down on the horse and I reckon we could do the same with this.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- I think so, too, yes.- Oh, you're very good, you two! Shall we have a go?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37- Yes!- Come on then, guys, come on.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Brimming with confidence,
0:08:40 > 0:08:44the Blues laid out £30 for the colourful vase.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49- Mark, Penny. - What have you found?- This!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- Gosh!- Oh, I like that!
0:08:51 > 0:08:53What a monstrosity! Why do you like it?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Because it's beautiful! Look at it!
0:08:55 > 0:08:58The colour is lovely, it's perfect. Do you know what it is?
0:08:58 > 0:09:01- I do, it's a water filter. - It is, too.
0:09:01 > 0:09:06And basically the lid comes off and then we take the middle section off.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09It says "The Berkefeld Filter"
0:09:09 > 0:09:14and if you look inside that, you can see a little filter inside,
0:09:14 > 0:09:20so you put that back on. You might put ice in there as well,
0:09:20 > 0:09:22- and then you'd have nice chilled water.- How lovely!
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- So what sort of age is it? - Well, 1890s, 1900s.- Oh, right!
0:09:26 > 0:09:30- It's 100 years old, or more.- Gosh.- I think we need to go and find out the price. Shall we go and do that?
0:09:30 > 0:09:34- Yes, let's.- And then we can have another drink.- Good idea.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39I think they'll need one after splashing out a whopping £175
0:09:39 > 0:09:42on the water filter, but I do love a team that spends!
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- I used to have one of these when I was a kid.- Did you?
0:09:46 > 0:09:48- Absolutely!- You still are a kid!
0:09:48 > 0:09:50He looks it, doesn't he, but that's typical,
0:09:50 > 0:09:54we see these toys that remind us of our halcyon days as a kid, and you're drawn into it, aren't you?
0:09:54 > 0:09:56- Absolutely!- I wonder if it floats!
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Well, that's the general idea. It is meant to sail!
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- There's a label here "Star Yacht"... - "Guaranteed to sail", there you go!
0:10:02 > 0:10:05There's your guarantee for you, in writing!
0:10:05 > 0:10:08I think probably 1950s or 1960s which is actually a good era,
0:10:08 > 0:10:12really, because the people that were kids during those two decades
0:10:12 > 0:10:15now hopefully have a bit of disposal income so they're the kind of guys
0:10:15 > 0:10:18that are going to be wanting to re-live those long gone summer days.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22- Can I tell you what I like about it? - Oh, go on!- More than anything else,
0:10:22 > 0:10:25the box. Because it's got its original box,
0:10:25 > 0:10:28it makes it so incredibly rare compared to an ordinary boat.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Well, David, you have the box and I'll have the boat!
0:10:31 > 0:10:33- Then we're going to devalue it altogether, John!- All right, OK.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37- So what about the price? - Well, I don't know.
0:10:37 > 0:10:38- How much is it?- I don't know.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40- Well, I think you'd better go and find out.- OK.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42- What do you think, Sue? - I don't know.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- What sort of price would it be? - Well, it's difficult,
0:10:45 > 0:10:47but I think anything under 50 quid is reasonable.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51It probably might have an auction estimate of £40 to £60 but again,
0:10:51 > 0:10:54because of the box here, it may just go.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Not ones to buck a trend, the Blues sailed in
0:10:59 > 0:11:04- with their third £30 bargain, original box and everything. - I really like...
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Don't forget the box...!
0:11:08 > 0:11:13Right. It's time to rein in the teams, time's up.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17The shopping's over. Let's recap on what the Red sisters bought.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21Stubbing out £80 from the budget, the girls started enthusiastically
0:11:21 > 0:11:24with a pair of deco ashtrays.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26They decanted £35 from their purse for
0:11:26 > 0:11:31the three bottle stand and finally, will the £175 Victorian water filter
0:11:31 > 0:11:34douse any profits at auction?
0:11:34 > 0:11:36So, you frisky sisters,
0:11:36 > 0:11:38- did you have a good time? - We had a wonderful time...
0:11:38 > 0:11:40- Wonderful!- And which is your favourite piece, then?
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- The water filter.- I think our favourite is the water filter.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Is that going to bring the biggest profit?
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Probably not... We think the decanters.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- That's your prediction?- Yes.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Well, you spent and spent, which is lovely.
0:11:51 > 0:11:58- We did!- All £290 of the £300 which means there's only a £10 note left over to go to Mark.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02Now that's enough to buy a lolly and a packet of crisps, isn't it?
0:12:02 > 0:12:04And I was going to invite you to the pub, Tim!
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- Two pints!- Oh, you're buying again!
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Well, it will be a bit of a struggle to find much of a bonus buy.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- We'll give it a bash! - But it can't go to a better bloke, that's all I can say!
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Anyway, good luck, Mark. Let's recap on what the Blues bought.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19The Blues trotted in with a £30 Beswick horse
0:12:19 > 0:12:21called "Spirit of Freedom".
0:12:21 > 0:12:25They paid £30 for the 60s style multi-coloured bubble vase.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28Finally, and without wishing to sound like a broken record,
0:12:28 > 0:12:32the boat cruised in at yet another £30!
0:12:33 > 0:12:35So, Sue and John, was that good fun?
0:12:35 > 0:12:37- Yeah, it was. - You seemed to have a nice time.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40- Which is your favourite piece? - The horse... The Beswick.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Yes. OK. Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?
0:12:42 > 0:12:46- I think the horse. We saved so much money on it.- Yeah?- I'm hoping that.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48We shall find out in the auction.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50- Exactly!- The truth of the matter is, you only spent £90
0:12:50 > 0:12:52which is completely miserable,
0:12:52 > 0:12:56and £210 of leftover lolly, which is a phenomenal amount of money...
0:12:56 > 0:12:59It's too much responsibility for me... I don't like it!
0:12:59 > 0:13:01The responsibility! What will you do with it?
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Well, I think I'm going to be a bit naughty and I think I'm going to buy
0:13:04 > 0:13:07something we've looked at, but they'll never guess in a million years what it is.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09I hope you're going to spend lots!
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I'm going to try and buy something meaty, I promise, I'll try.
0:13:12 > 0:13:13Yeah, try and spend the lot, eh?
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Well, it's lovely to be in Derbyshire
0:13:22 > 0:13:25at Charles Hanson's Auctions with Charles Hanson himself.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28- Good morning. - Good morning. All well?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30I think so, yes, raring to go, Tim!
0:13:30 > 0:13:32As ever, Charles, which is brilliant.
0:13:32 > 0:13:37Penny and Elaine for the Reds, their first item is this decanter stand.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Now tell me, Charles, how do you rate that?
0:13:38 > 0:13:43As a decanter stand. we can see it's warped,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46it's a low grade of gilt metal, the decanters don't fit in,
0:13:46 > 0:13:50yes, its truffle-shape is very attractive, but the quality is not there.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52Yes, which means it's worth what?
0:13:52 > 0:13:55It's worth not a lot really. My guide price is about £30.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- £30? Well, they paid £35. - OK.- So there we have it.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00- They might just get away with it. - Possibly.
0:14:00 > 0:14:06Now, the silver deco ashtrays, they've got the look, they're made of solid silver...
0:14:06 > 0:14:11It's that fast, furious living, 1930s, engine-turned finish,
0:14:11 > 0:14:15wonderful asymmetric design, they're very nice, but we don't smoke today!
0:14:15 > 0:14:18My guide price, Tim, would be between £30 and £40.
0:14:18 > 0:14:23- Dear or dear! £80 they paid. £80, Charles.- They are stylish.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27They might make £50, Tim, but not more than that in my opinion.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30No, they won't, no. Well you need to gird up your loins
0:14:30 > 0:14:33here now, Charles, with this water purifying job.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- What do you do with it? - Yes...- It's decorative, Tim,
0:14:36 > 0:14:41it's complete and that's really as far as I would go when it comes to value and assessing it.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46On a really good day with the wind blowing, it might make up to £50.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48- £50?- That's my guide price. - Five-oh?- Yes.
0:14:48 > 0:14:54- They paid £175 for this water purifier.- It will make a big loss.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57- I can't see it, Tim, unfortunately. - No, I can't see it.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01And they're definitely going to need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06A pair of plates,
0:15:06 > 0:15:09which I think are wonderful and they did actually cost me the whole £10.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11All of it? You spent all of it?
0:15:11 > 0:15:16All of it. They were marked up at £18 and they've got that lovely pattern on them
0:15:16 > 0:15:21- which is known as the "tobacco leaf" pattern which goes right back to the 18th century basically.- Made by?
0:15:21 > 0:15:26These are made by Copland and Garrett and you can date them very specifically.
0:15:26 > 0:15:33- They were in production from 1833 to 1847 so they're at least 150 something years old.- Right, yeah!
0:15:33 > 0:15:38- They're in very good condition. - I would be very disappointed if they didn't double their money.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40- Really?- Oh, that's good.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43It doesn't matter if you like them or not, because they're your bonus buy.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46You'll simply decide after the sale of your first three items
0:15:46 > 0:15:50whether you take them as a bonus buy or not, but for the viewers at home,
0:15:50 > 0:15:52let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about them.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Well, Tim, they are what they are.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58They're 130 years old, they're in this sort of "Japanesque"
0:15:58 > 0:16:02- aesthetic Victorian High Empire style...- Mass-produced?
0:16:02 > 0:16:05..1870s... Yes, but they're in fairly good order, hand-tinted.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- And maybe you'll get £12? - Absolutely.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- And maybe you'll get £8?- Yeah. - Impossible really to predict.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13- Yeah, you never know.- You never know!
0:16:13 > 0:16:16So, Charles, that is it for the Reds.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Now, for the Blues, Sue and John, here we go.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23First up are these horses. These horses have been breeding, you know.
0:16:23 > 0:16:28- Amazing!- Amazing, isn't it? We started off with one by Beswick,
0:16:28 > 0:16:29which got damaged in transit,
0:16:29 > 0:16:34so we've been out and found another one just like it...
0:16:34 > 0:16:39by Doulton. We're going to give the teams a chance to select which they want,
0:16:39 > 0:16:42and I bet you they go with the Doulton one, which is perfect,
0:16:42 > 0:16:46but first of all, give us your view on the Beswick fellow.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49I think, Tim, quite right, as soon as there's a slight chip
0:16:49 > 0:16:53on a Beswick ornament being a horse or a hound, value freefalls
0:16:53 > 0:16:59It's a good, standard type... They wholesale in the current auction market today at about £30.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- So £30 to £40 worth perfect?- Indeed.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06Right. What's it worth sans earhole?
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Our guide price would be from £15 to £25.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13What's the estimate on the Doulton one which is, I think, perfect?
0:17:13 > 0:17:16Its value would be the same as the Beswick, if it was perfect of course.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19- £30 to £40? - Correct, £30 to £40 the guide price. - That's perfect.- Yep.
0:17:19 > 0:17:24They paid £30 for their Beswick horse, and we're going to treat the purchase
0:17:24 > 0:17:28of the Doulton one at £30, too, so it's perfectly equitable for them.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Indeed.- Thank you, Charles.- OK.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Next is the bubble vase, something completely different.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39I love the shouldered ovoid form, very elegant.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41My guide price, Tim, between £20 and £30.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- £30 they paid.- Fine.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47So, you will not remember these from your childhood, Charles,
0:17:47 > 0:17:51but every self-respecting 40 to 60-year-old in the audience
0:17:51 > 0:17:52probably had one of these.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54- Did you have one, too? - I have to admit I did!
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Did you? - Yeah. Mine was called Shamrock.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59I'll tell you what's nice about this...
0:17:59 > 0:18:01you've got the box, you've got the
0:18:01 > 0:18:05sails and it's pretty well ready to cast off, isn't it?
0:18:05 > 0:18:09Yes. It's one of those... It really is evocative of 40, 50 years ago.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13My guide price... Bad day, £20, good day, £30.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17- Well, let's hope for a good day because they paid £30.- Right, OK.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Overall, we shall see. They may or may not need
0:18:19 > 0:18:21their bonus buy, but let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- Oh, wow!- Do you recognise them?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Weren't they on the stall that we bought the horse, is it the horse?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31- Yeah.- I tried to make you buy them.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35They were on my mind for absolutely ages and I went back and thought, I've gotta have them!
0:18:35 > 0:18:37These are Royal Doulton. everybody knows Royal Doulton.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40But these two, because they're circa 1910, Art Nouveau, you've got
0:18:40 > 0:18:44that lovely flowing great style and flair to it and lots of lovely colours,
0:18:44 > 0:18:49as opposed to the more traditional Royal Doulton that has really gone off the boil.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- So how much did you pay for them? - £70.- £70!
0:18:52 > 0:18:56- I think they're for nothing, personally.- Really? They're brilliant for that.- Absolutely.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00Anyway, you guys, you don't decide until a bit later on but for the viewers at home,
0:19:00 > 0:19:03let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the pair.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07They've got a hint of the Arts and Crafts about them, haven't they? But they're plain.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- They're just this boring brown wash. - Plain Janes?- They are plain Janes.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13I mean, they're impressed, obviously Royal Doulton,
0:19:13 > 0:19:17we know they're circa 1910, but they're fairly mass-produced.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- They're like skittles! I always want to roll them over!- Do you?
0:19:20 > 0:19:24Well, there would be fewer of them around if you did!
0:19:24 > 0:19:28So, David Harper rates them, he paid £70. Will you get anywhere close?
0:19:28 > 0:19:35I'm sorry. They're really bog standard. My guide price is between £25 and £35.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Oh, dear! Stand by for a bloodbath!
0:19:37 > 0:19:40See you later. Good luck, Charles, thank you.
0:19:41 > 0:19:4320, 30, third warning.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46450, 500, sir.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50How are you feeling, you girls?
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- Excited.- Are you excited?
0:19:52 > 0:19:53- Yes, we are. - What's your anticipation?
0:19:53 > 0:19:56Do you feel you're going to make lots of profits today?
0:19:56 > 0:19:58- I hope so.- Yes, we hope so.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00We're anticipating some wonderful things.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04Maybe... Anyway, first up is your decanter stand, and here it comes.
0:20:04 > 0:20:11We have a very handsome three decanters in a decanter stand.

0:26:35 > 0:26:40- Are you going to bank your minus £3, or go with the Doulton vases?- Mmm, what shall we do(?)
0:26:40 > 0:26:44We're going to go for it, aren't we? Yeah, we're going to go for it.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46And here it comes.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48We're going to a very fine pair,
0:26:48 > 0:26:52decorative pair, of Doulton weighted vases.
0:26:52 > 0:26:53Where do we start? I'm bid here...
0:26:53 > 0:26:56< £20, do I see two for them?
0:26:56 > 0:26:582, 5, 8,
0:26:58 > 0:27:028, 30, 2, 5, 8,
0:27:02 > 0:27:0540, 2, 5. Are you sure, sir? One more!
0:27:05 > 0:27:07- Come on!- And you're out.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10At £42, they're good things. Do I see five? Come on!
0:27:10 > 0:27:12They've got to be worth more!
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- Start running, David!- They have!
0:27:15 > 0:27:19At £42, we say sale.
0:27:19 > 0:27:20Oh, no!
0:27:20 > 0:27:23£42, yes? That's minus £28.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27Sorry, guys. They've got no taste, that's the problem!
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Overall, then, you're minus £31.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32- That could be a winning score. - It could be!
0:27:32 > 0:27:35- Don't talk to the Reds about anything, right? Promise?- No.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38- We won't.- Zip it.- We will. - You've been great fun.- Excellent.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42Well, the blues make a loss of £31, which may not sound great,
0:27:42 > 0:27:46but that's nothing compared to the ladies in red
0:27:46 > 0:27:51who had a disastrous loss of £173.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54Coming up, more teams go bargain hunting, but first,
0:27:54 > 0:27:56I'm off for a little stroll.
0:27:57 > 0:28:02Unlike the changeable British weather, Grimsthorpe Castle has always impressed.
0:28:02 > 0:28:06In 1540 work began to transform the place in preparation for a visit
0:28:06 > 0:28:11from King Henry VIII, and from then on Grimsthorpe
0:28:11 > 0:28:14has enjoyed a reputation for entertainment.
0:28:14 > 0:28:19Sadly, Grimsthorpe went through a bit of a barren patch in the 19th century,
0:28:19 > 0:28:26only being used for winter shooting parties, but scroll forward to 1910
0:28:26 > 0:28:31and everything was about to change with the arrival of one sassy lady.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41Eloise was an American who liked to party
0:28:41 > 0:28:47and we can see her here in this exotic portrait by De Laszlo.
0:28:47 > 0:28:51In 1911 she set about modernising Grimsthorpe
0:28:51 > 0:28:56to bring it up to expected standards of Edwardian society.
0:28:56 > 0:29:01And what better place to see an example of Eloise's taste than here,
0:29:01 > 0:29:09in the Tapestry room, a room that's almost entirely contained all the way round by a series of tapestries
0:29:09 > 0:29:14woven in the Soho tapestry works in London around 1720.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19Now, these particular tapestries are referred to as arabesque tapestries
0:29:19 > 0:29:22and if you look at the ground there are number of colours.
0:29:22 > 0:29:27Panels of yellow, pale blue and this coffee brown.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32In this example we've got a splendid cock pheasant preening himself.
0:29:32 > 0:29:40Up above, a series of pendant ornaments each with a rather whacky parrot swinging in a circlet.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43And it's the frames themselves that are called arabesque.
0:29:43 > 0:29:49They are always constructed of a series of bits of strack work
0:29:49 > 0:29:55and slender, sinuous, scrolling foliage and flowers.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59So, what was Eloise's involvement with these tapestries?
0:29:59 > 0:30:05Well, she in 1924 saved these tapestries from another family
0:30:05 > 0:30:11property, Normanton Park, brought them to Grimsthorpe and carefully arranged for the re-hanging.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14And I think she's done a splendid job.
0:30:15 > 0:30:22And speaking of splendid jobs, what will our two teams of reds and blues make of the job of bargain hunting?
0:30:23 > 0:30:29For the Reds we've got Julie and Emily and for the Blues we've got Gary and David.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Welcome to Bargain Hunt, very nice to see you.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34Now, Julie, rumour has it
0:30:34 > 0:30:37that you will sing along to anything is that true?
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Not actually anything, no, but I do like singing.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42- Do you?- Yes.- What sort of singing?
0:30:42 > 0:30:45My favourite song is Mambo No. 5.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48- Mambo No. 5.- Are you going to give us a bit of a trill?- No, I'm not.
0:30:48 > 0:30:49Very sensible.
0:30:49 > 0:30:54So, Emily, is it your mother that got you into this showbiz lark then?
0:30:54 > 0:30:55Yes, I'm afraid so.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57We went to theatre a lot when I was younger.
0:30:57 > 0:31:01- And you're now a qualified actress. - Apparently so, I am.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05Tell us about it, did you do Am Drams and stuff at school, is that what got you into it?
0:31:05 > 0:31:07I was in Oliver when I was in secondary school
0:31:07 > 0:31:11and I did a few things in A level and at college as well,
0:31:11 > 0:31:16- but my ultimate goal would be to be on the West End.- Would it?
0:31:16 > 0:31:18You never know who's watching this show,
0:31:18 > 0:31:22all they've got to do is write in an offer you a part and you'll say "yes".
0:31:22 > 0:31:25- Yes.- Brilliant. Well, good luck on our show today.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27Now, for the Blues.
0:31:27 > 0:31:31You two guys are both in the police force, tell us about it.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34We are police Community Support officers for Derbyshire Constabulary.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Brilliant. What sort of things do you collect, David.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41Myself, I love studio glass, the brighter colours the better.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44Oh, Lord, there's plenty of that at this fair.
0:31:44 > 0:31:46And what about you, Gary, what do you collect?
0:31:46 > 0:31:52I do collect most things, things like vintage port going back to the 1920s.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54Have you? Do you ever drink it?
0:31:54 > 0:31:58- They say it could be decanted and we could partake of a dram.- Definitely.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Anyway, now is the money moment.
0:32:00 > 0:32:05Here's your £300, £300 apiece, there's your £300,
0:32:05 > 0:32:08you know the rules, your experts await and off you go.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11MUSIC: "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega
0:32:17 > 0:32:18Mark, what do you think about this?
0:32:18 > 0:32:22It's an egg timer, obviously, but what's special about it?
0:32:22 > 0:32:26I just thought it was interesting. A nice colour. What's the picture on the top?
0:32:26 > 0:32:29Well, it says Burns Monument, that's Robbie Burns.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31Scottish, then.
0:32:31 > 0:32:35- And do you know what we call this work?- No.- Mauchline Ware.
0:32:35 > 0:32:38This is actually a type of fruit wood and then we have this
0:32:38 > 0:32:41- black transfer print on the top. - How old would that be?
0:32:41 > 0:32:43- It's certainly Victorian. - Is it?- Yes.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47I would have thought it's about 1900 or maybe a bit earlier, little bit later.
0:32:47 > 0:32:51- And it's a quirky item, isn't it? - It is very quirky. I like that.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54But, of course, what I want to know, is it a quirky price.
0:32:54 > 0:32:59She was asking £85 for it, but I have got her down to £75.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02- It sounds like she's done the deal.- Without us!
0:33:02 > 0:33:05- Does she take after you with this bossiness?- Not at all, no.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09Come on we've still got other items to find.
0:33:09 > 0:33:14EGGS-cellent work from Emily. How are the Blues getting on.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16- What have you brought?- Four pieces of Lalique.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Well, they look very Lalique, don't they?
0:33:19 > 0:33:22You've got the style, quality, that opalescent finish.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24OK, it says Lalique, France.
0:33:24 > 0:33:29And so Lalique, France tells me these things were made after 1950.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32With opalescent glass, it's almost impossible to restore it
0:33:32 > 0:33:36to its original finish, so we have to make sure there's no cracks in it, or damage...
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- They look quite good. - They look pretty good.
0:33:39 > 0:33:44Now, £260 that's a lot of money even for Lalique. Shall we just go and see what we can do?
0:33:44 > 0:33:46- Go and have a word with them. - A team effort.- Yeah.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48Come on, let's have a word.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53Our boys in blue are a real GLASS act.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57They got the Lalique set down to £170.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00It is nice. It's a little spoon obviously,
0:34:00 > 0:34:03but the interesting thing about it is when we turn it over
0:34:03 > 0:34:06we have got an Irish hallmark Dublin 1973
0:34:06 > 0:34:10and we've got the makers mark there O'C
0:34:10 > 0:34:14and then you've got the same little symbol as you've got on the top here.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16It's very '70s style.
0:34:16 > 0:34:20And there are a lot of collectors now for these more modernist things.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22So what do you think it's worth?
0:34:22 > 0:34:26- Maybe £40 to £60.- Right. - Now, I've had a word with the dealer.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28He was asking £85.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31- Right.- He's been quite generous, he's reduced it to £60.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33- I like it...- You like it?- Yes.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- Shall we go for it? - Yes.- Come on, let's go and get it.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45David, what do you think about these?
0:34:45 > 0:34:49- Oh, a pair of I hope? - A pair. I don't like 'em.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52- I think they're funky. - What do you think they are?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54- Carriage lamps.- I think so.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56There's your bracket for hanging.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59If you open up the back... Ah, now look at that.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02What should have been in there is some sort of oil burner.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05At some point somebody has converted it to electricity.
0:35:05 > 0:35:09That's not a bad thing, doesn't worry me at all because that makes them more usable today.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12I think they're great and if all else fails
0:35:12 > 0:35:15we'll buy them ourselves and stick them on a police car.
0:35:15 > 0:35:19- I don't like them, but I think we've got a chance.- That's great David but how much are they?
0:35:19 > 0:35:22- They're priced up at £40.- What do you think they will fetch at the auction?
0:35:22 > 0:35:26We might be lucky to get our money back, but who knows?
0:35:26 > 0:35:30Don't worry, David, we get it, sitting on the fence.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36- What do you think, Emily?- Absolutely hideous.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39I think you're being too judgemental there, Emily.
0:35:39 > 0:35:43- I think your mother's found a very interesting piece of glass.- Really?
0:35:43 > 0:35:47It's a bedroom tray or something like that for your dressing table
0:35:47 > 0:35:52and when you hold it up to the light you see all that milky design coming through.
0:35:52 > 0:35:57It's press moulded and you've got two swans, madly in love with each other, swimming serenely
0:35:57 > 0:36:00through a river setting underneath some willow.
0:36:00 > 0:36:04We can see a signature there, Julienne France, so it's French.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06I'd like to know how much it is, Mark.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09It's quite a substantial piece for your money.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12I'd like to see it at £70, £80 or so.
0:36:12 > 0:36:17- If we can get it for that we might stand a profit. - I think we should go for it.
0:36:17 > 0:36:21- Well, on your head be it. - Come on, as long as we can get it for a good price.- OK.
0:36:25 > 0:36:30The glass was priced at £165, but the girls swanned off with it for £80.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Now, hang on what's this, surely not more glass?
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- OK, this is you, David, you love your glass don't you.- It is me, yes.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40There's no markings on it, but it's by Stevens & Williams.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44- So, they are a Stourbridge maker. - I've never heard of them.
0:36:44 > 0:36:49They are known for this simple design, free blown.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52Look at the nice wrinkles in the glass there and some bubbles.
0:36:52 > 0:36:57If you look on the base the mark has been ground out and smoothed. What kind of age, David, do you think?
0:36:57 > 0:37:01- I'd say '30s, '40s. - It's got that feel.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03It's got a lovely colour, can you see that in the light,
0:37:03 > 0:37:06just reflecting there? This is the problem here,
0:37:06 > 0:37:09we've got no acid etched mark and that's what I would like to see.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12I'd like to see the factory mark and even better,
0:37:12 > 0:37:16the blower, the guy that created and designed this piece.
0:37:16 > 0:37:21So, it's not unheard of not to have a mark on, it's just it's so much easier
0:37:21 > 0:37:25to sell the darn things when they do have a marking on there.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29- So, what kind of money are we talking about?- It's marked up at £73.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33If it had that maker's mark on there I'd snap their hand off at £70 odd.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36- We're having it.- Come on.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40Not only did David have it and he got a good deal, as well.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43£73 down to £40.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46And that also means one crucial thing, time's up.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48Let's have a reminder of what the Reds bought.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53First in the bag for the Reds
0:37:53 > 0:37:58was Emily's Mauchline Ware egg timer bagged for a cracking £75.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Next up, Mum loved it, Emily hated it.
0:38:00 > 0:38:04There was only going to be one winner, really.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06Hang on, egg timer, plate and a spoon.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09There's something missing here.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12I just hope they don't get egg on their face at auction.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14So, Mark, how were these girls.
0:38:14 > 0:38:18They were very good. I did think we were going to cause one family
0:38:18 > 0:38:23division with the difference over a glass dish, but other than that they were perfect.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26Anyway, you spent a very respectable £215.
0:38:26 > 0:38:32I'll have £85 worth of left over lolly which goes back to you, Mark. Are you excited about this?
0:38:32 > 0:38:34It's a decent amount.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36You get excited quite easily though.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40- I do, Tim.- You are quite low on the excitement threshold.- Very low.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Yes, so how are you going to fizz up?
0:38:42 > 0:38:44I've got something that might seize a bit of a profit.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46- Really?- Mmm. - You are enigmatic.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49OK, shove off and get it and good luck.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52Let's remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:38:52 > 0:38:55David said he liked glass and he wasn't lying.
0:38:55 > 0:39:00First, the Blues found a set of Lalique and shelled out £170.
0:39:00 > 0:39:04They'll be after even more brass at auction for their navigation lights.
0:39:04 > 0:39:12And completing their glassy, brassy line-up was yet more glass, which set them back £40.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15Hello, hello, hello, David.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18- How many tickets did you get today? - From the boys in blue?
0:39:18 > 0:39:20Yes! Did they give you a hard time?
0:39:20 > 0:39:23Of course, look at them they are pair of troublemakers.
0:39:23 > 0:39:25You can tell that at first glance.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28- Did you buy any glass.- We did.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30And what's your favourite piece.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33- Sad to say, Lalique.- Lalique glass.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35- Same with you.- It is.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?
0:39:37 > 0:39:39- Hopefully, the Lalique. - Do you agree with that?
0:39:39 > 0:39:42- I do. - Singing off one hymn sheet here.
0:39:42 > 0:39:46Anyway you spent £243, magnificent performance.
0:39:46 > 0:39:48I've got 57 smackers here.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52- Thank you.- Not at all. What are you going to do with that David?
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Well, I've got my mind set on a lovely boys only boxed toy,
0:39:55 > 0:39:59that all three of us will like, but also that horrible Mark Stacey's had his eye on it
0:39:59 > 0:40:05- so I'm going to grab it before he gets it. - You better hurry, good luck.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Well, it's extremely nice to be in Derbyshire
0:40:13 > 0:40:16at Charles Hanson's saleroom, with Charles Hanson himself, the legend.
0:40:16 > 0:40:19- Thank you for coming. - Very, very nice to be here.
0:40:19 > 0:40:24The Reds Julie and Emily, they went with this little caddy spoon.
0:40:24 > 0:40:29It is what it is. It's modern, but it's got a certain nice forward thinking design about it.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32- Irish and hopefully lucky. - And beautifully marked.
0:40:32 > 0:40:39- And beautifully marked. - How much then?- My guide price would be about £30, between £20 and £30.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41- Well, they paid £60 actually. - Right, OK.
0:40:41 > 0:40:46That's going to be pretty disappointing. What about the Mauchline Ware egg timer?
0:40:46 > 0:40:49It's a delightful piece of treen, in nice condition.
0:40:49 > 0:40:53- I suppose it's what, 1910? - Something like that.
0:40:53 > 0:40:58- if someone's looking for a Burns monument piece, it could make a good price.- What will it make?
0:40:58 > 0:41:01My guide price to them again would be between £30 and £50.
0:41:01 > 0:41:05£75 paid. We're a bit light here.
0:41:05 > 0:41:06We are light, but there's a long way to go.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09What about this French dish?
0:41:09 > 0:41:14Yeah, again all the look, it's got the wonderful fan shaped geometric handles.
0:41:14 > 0:41:16- It's decorative, but press moulded. - Press moulded.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18And fairly mass produced.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22- And Julienne's not a big name. - No, it's not.
0:41:22 > 0:41:26All right, I'm getting a bad feeling about this one, too. What's the estimate?
0:41:26 > 0:41:30Well, Tim, I rate it with a guide price between £30 and £50.
0:41:30 > 0:41:33- £80 paid.- Right.
0:41:33 > 0:41:37So, uniquely we have estimates which are less than half
0:41:37 > 0:41:40of the price paid on all three items.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43They are going to need their bonus buy. Let's go and have a look at it.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47Da-na! I bought these.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51These are a pair of conical salt and pepper pots. I'll give you one each to look.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53I like them because of their shape
0:41:53 > 0:41:56and also they've got little juvenile sports on them.
0:41:56 > 0:42:00Children playing various games. I don't think they are Clarice Cliff.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04It would be wonderful if they were but I suspect they are not.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07But I liked them because I thought it would appeal to people
0:42:07 > 0:42:09- and they were only £60. - Oh, were they?
0:42:09 > 0:42:12So, it's not too bad, and hopefully we'll shake out a profit somewhere.
0:42:12 > 0:42:15THEY CHUCKLE
0:42:15 > 0:42:17So, do you like them, Ems?
0:42:17 > 0:42:20- They're sweet, I love the pictures on the front.- I like them as well.
0:42:20 > 0:42:24Good, I'm glad you like them. Actually it doesn't matter whether you like them or not.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27What you want to know is, are they going to make a profit?
0:42:27 > 0:42:31Well, I would hope so. I think if they appeal to a couple of people
0:42:31 > 0:42:34we might have a £10 profit, or something like that.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37So, you don't decide right now, you decide a bit later on.
0:42:37 > 0:42:41For the viewers at home let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about them.
0:42:41 > 0:42:46They don't feel right - to me, they don't feel 1930s.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48I think they are a lot later
0:42:48 > 0:42:52and I really feel they're purely decorative, hence I've catalogued
0:42:52 > 0:42:54them as being printed marks Clarice Cliff,
0:42:54 > 0:42:57- rather than actually by Clarice Cliff.- You think it's all bogus?
0:42:57 > 0:43:01- Possibly. I do.- Well, there we go. It will be interesting won't it?
0:43:01 > 0:43:05- What's the estimate?- Tim, my guide price is between £20 and £30.
0:43:05 > 0:43:09£60 Mark paid for these and he rates them.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12Anyway, now for the Blues, Gary and David,
0:43:12 > 0:43:16their first item in the auction is the Lalique dish set.
0:43:16 > 0:43:20- They're a good set.- Yes. - There's four of them.- Lovely.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23- What's your estimate?- They are in good condition. My guide price, Tim?
0:43:23 > 0:43:27I could see them really making £25 each,
0:43:27 > 0:43:30which would mean a guide price of £70 to 100.
0:43:30 > 0:43:36- They paid £170.- Right. - £170. No way, hey, Jose?
0:43:36 > 0:43:38I think we'll struggle to get that figure.
0:43:38 > 0:43:43Now, these lamps which have come off a yacht. Nothing to do with coaches.
0:43:43 > 0:43:47- What sort of period do you think they are?- 1940s, '50s.
0:43:47 > 0:43:52And they are really decorative perhaps to a maritime collector.
0:43:52 > 0:43:54They've got a certain patination to them.
0:43:54 > 0:43:56They don't look entirely brand new.
0:43:56 > 0:43:58My guide price is between £30 and £40.
0:43:58 > 0:44:01- £33 they paid, so that has got some hope.- I think so.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04- They might make a bit of cash on that.- Yes.
0:44:04 > 0:44:08And lastly, then is the art glass vase,
0:44:08 > 0:44:13which is rather lovely, isn't it? In those striated shades of green.
0:44:13 > 0:44:16It's in that great, early 20th century established tradition.
0:44:16 > 0:44:18It's a good-looking piece of art glass.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20Could be Stevens and Williams.
0:44:20 > 0:44:23- Not marked but very nice.- How much?
0:44:23 > 0:44:26My guide price would be, Tim, between £30 and £50.
0:44:26 > 0:44:29£40 they paid so that's pretty well spot on.
0:44:29 > 0:44:34So, any big hole here revolves around the Lalique side dishes.
0:44:34 > 0:44:37- Correct.- There's a potential big loss there, and they may
0:44:37 > 0:44:41well need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45- Well!- Different.
0:44:45 > 0:44:50Different. It's fantastic! It's a 1960s original toy.
0:44:50 > 0:44:53That has never seen water as far as I can see.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55- You've got the original key in there.- It'll sink.
0:44:55 > 0:44:59It will not sink! It's made from pressed steel by a company called Sutcliffe,
0:44:59 > 0:45:01a very, very good maker.
0:45:01 > 0:45:05This is a late '60s, maybe early '70s boat.
0:45:05 > 0:45:08Never been used, in its original box, guys!
0:45:08 > 0:45:09Is it still in working order?
0:45:09 > 0:45:13Absolutely - the key's in here, in its original bit of paper.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15It's absolutely immaculate.
0:45:15 > 0:45:19Honestly, I thought every boy would just go crazy over that.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21Very disappointed, Tim.
0:45:21 > 0:45:23It's a brilliant thing. How much did you pay?
0:45:23 > 0:45:28- Well, what do you think I paid, guys?- I'd say £20 to £30.
0:45:28 > 0:45:30Very good - bang in the middle - £25.
0:45:30 > 0:45:32I hate that, I really, really don't like it.
0:45:32 > 0:45:34- I'm bombing, Tim.- You're not at all.
0:45:34 > 0:45:37I don't mind it. I don't know if I'd buy it myself but it may
0:45:37 > 0:45:41- have a chance.- I'd get hours of pleasure out of that. Hours.
0:45:41 > 0:45:43- Would you play with it in the bath?- Yes!
0:45:43 > 0:45:48It doesn't really matter, Gary and Dave, whether you like it or not.
0:45:48 > 0:45:51You have to trust your expert here. He sees a profit - how much profit?
0:45:51 > 0:45:53Might make £40, £50 - might.
0:45:53 > 0:45:58There you go - that's his prediction and you'll have your choice after the sale of the first three items
0:45:58 > 0:46:02but for the viewers at home, let's find out what they think.
0:46:02 > 0:46:05- Very, very nice, isn't it? - Brilliant.- In good condition,
0:46:05 > 0:46:09it's always nice when there's a box with it. "The Sprite day cruiser. Clockwork."
0:46:09 > 0:46:12- It's in good condition, though. - Impeccable.- It is.
0:46:12 > 0:46:16It is. Made by Sutcliffe toys, great maker. What's it worth today, Tim?
0:46:16 > 0:46:19I would see it going into a sale, bearing mind it's so complete and
0:46:19 > 0:46:25neat and tidy, my guide price would be fairly wide between £20 and £40.
0:46:25 > 0:46:28£20 and £40. Well, David paid £25. He really rates it.
0:46:28 > 0:46:32- He reckons it will make a decent profit in the auction.- It will do.
0:46:32 > 0:46:35- And it jolly well ought to.- Super thing.- Frankly, find another one.
0:46:35 > 0:46:39- Exactly.- Are you taking the auction? - I will be indeed.- Aha, skipper,
0:46:39 > 0:46:41- we're in safe hands.- All aboard.
0:46:48 > 0:46:52So, Ems and Jules, we are on the cusp of the auction.
0:46:52 > 0:46:54Are you excited between you?
0:46:54 > 0:46:55- Nervous.- A little bit nervous.
0:46:55 > 0:46:59What have you got to be nervous about? What are you nervous about?
0:46:59 > 0:47:02Just in case it...
0:47:02 > 0:47:03Doesn't go very well.
0:47:03 > 0:47:07- Any particular object you are nervous about?- The plate.
0:47:07 > 0:47:09- What, the French glass plate?- Yes.
0:47:09 > 0:47:11Well, you paid £80 for it, right?
0:47:11 > 0:47:15- Mmm.- The auctioneer's estimate is £30 to £50.- Yes.
0:47:15 > 0:47:18I have to tell you, Julie, that you did find it, didn't you?
0:47:18 > 0:47:20So that's why you're nervous.
0:47:20 > 0:47:24Yes. And if all else fails you've always got Mark's conical Clarice
0:47:24 > 0:47:27Cliff lookalike shakers, haven't you?
0:47:27 > 0:47:31- Yes.- Which is something to look forward to. But first up, it's the
0:47:31 > 0:47:35- little caddy spoon of Mark's, and here we go.- My number now is 150.
0:47:35 > 0:47:41We have got the Irish silver, luck of the Irish always doubling...
0:47:41 > 0:47:44Sorry - a Dublin silver caddy spoon.
0:47:44 > 0:47:48There we are, lots of interest, I've got one, two, three commission bids.
0:47:48 > 0:47:50- Yes!- And I'm bid £20...
0:47:50 > 0:47:52Do I see two, please? 20...
0:47:52 > 0:47:56I'll take two... five... eight... I'm out, where's 30 now? 30...
0:47:56 > 0:47:58two... five...
0:47:58 > 0:48:02eight... 42... are you sure, sir?
0:48:02 > 0:48:07I'll take two, at £40 bid, do I see two?
0:48:07 > 0:48:11It's very, very nice, secure and selling at £40, all out.
0:48:11 > 0:48:16I don't like the look of this. £40 is minus £20. That is bad luck.
0:48:16 > 0:48:21The Mauchline ware, Burns monument, fruit-wood egg timer, a rarity.
0:48:21 > 0:48:26A bit of interest here. I'm bid straight in £15... 18...
0:48:26 > 0:48:29£20... Do I see two now? Come on.
0:48:29 > 0:48:31- Aw, come on.- Two... five... eight...
0:48:31 > 0:48:33One more, sir, I've got five...
0:48:33 > 0:48:36do I see eight, now? £25... surely eight now.
0:48:36 > 0:48:40- You paid £75!- £25 with the auctioneer on the book.
0:48:40 > 0:48:4428... I've got 30... Two? No more.
0:48:44 > 0:48:46With the auctioneer 30...
0:48:46 > 0:48:47I'll take two, come on.
0:48:47 > 0:48:52All done, fair warning, absentee bid secures, at £30 selling.
0:48:52 > 0:48:58- It's so cheap, minus £45.- Oh, no.
0:48:58 > 0:49:01- And now the plate!- Now your plate.
0:49:01 > 0:49:03Stand by, Jules. Be strong.
0:49:03 > 0:49:09Next. We have got a very nice, opalescent, French-press moulded
0:49:09 > 0:49:14oval glass dish with swans on a pond, in the Art Deco style.
0:49:14 > 0:49:17I am bid straight in 15... 18...
0:49:17 > 0:49:2020... two... Do I see five now?
0:49:20 > 0:49:24Do I see £25... surely, 25... 28...
0:49:24 > 0:49:26Come again, sir.
0:49:26 > 0:49:3030... two... five, one more, sir?
0:49:30 > 0:49:35- Go on.- Sir, against you, I'm here. £32, do I see five? Come on.
0:49:35 > 0:49:37At £32, fair warning.
0:49:37 > 0:49:42- At £32 in the yellow top, you secure it.- £48.
0:49:42 > 0:49:44That's £48, yeah.
0:49:44 > 0:49:49£32 equals minus £48.
0:49:49 > 0:49:5348, I'm afraid that is minus £113.
0:49:53 > 0:49:54Lovely.
0:49:54 > 0:49:57Minus £113, that's not so swift.
0:49:57 > 0:50:00What about these little shakers, then?
0:50:00 > 0:50:02- I think we should just do it. - We've got to.
0:50:02 > 0:50:05We're going with the bonus buy and here it comes.
0:50:05 > 0:50:12A very nice pair of interesting conical shaped shakers.
0:50:12 > 0:50:14There they are, marked Clarice Cliff.
0:50:14 > 0:50:17We have interest and I'm bid, straight in, £15,
0:50:17 > 0:50:20do I see 18? Let's go for it. 15...
0:50:20 > 0:50:2418, 20, two... five... eight... 30...
0:50:24 > 0:50:2932... I'm out. Five... eight... 40... two...
0:50:29 > 0:50:31- five... one more, sir?- Come on.
0:50:31 > 0:50:33- £48...- Come on!
0:50:33 > 0:50:34£48...
0:50:34 > 0:50:37- Oh, come on!- £50 and two...
0:50:37 > 0:50:42five... Your place, ma'am, at £52, where's five?
0:50:42 > 0:50:43Fair warning.
0:50:43 > 0:50:46Oh, come on, this is so close.
0:50:46 > 0:50:47Just a few more.
0:50:47 > 0:50:4952, they're yours.
0:50:49 > 0:50:53- Ohh!- £52 - You're only eight off. That is terribly close.
0:50:53 > 0:50:56- It's very close.- Very, very close.
0:50:56 > 0:51:03So, you are minus £121... what is that? 138...£121.
0:51:03 > 0:51:08- Minus 121.- That's not bad. - Minus 121, which is nothing, really.
0:51:08 > 0:51:09Slightly out.
0:51:09 > 0:51:11- We were close.- We were close.
0:51:11 > 0:51:14And you know, this could be a winning score at £121.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17- Really?- It could the number that wins you the competition.
0:51:17 > 0:51:19If it goes really badly for the Blues, it could be.
0:51:19 > 0:51:23- So, don't tell the Blues a thing. - No.- Not a word. Look confident.
0:51:23 > 0:51:24- We will.- We're good at that.
0:51:34 > 0:51:36Now, between the two of you,
0:51:36 > 0:51:40you bought those Lalique glass salad dishes, didn't you?
0:51:40 > 0:51:42- Are you feeling nervy at all?- Yes.
0:51:42 > 0:51:43- Yes.- Why's that then?
0:51:43 > 0:51:46- Because you paid too much?- Yes.
0:51:46 > 0:51:48- Probably.- You did pay £170.
0:51:48 > 0:51:51They've got the Lalique signature, which is very nice.
0:51:51 > 0:51:56But £70 to £100 is Charles Hansan's estimate. I'm afraid you could be a ton light here.
0:51:56 > 0:51:58My number is now 175.
0:51:58 > 0:52:01We go to a super lot of four
0:52:01 > 0:52:05Lalique moulded glass side dishes. Being shown for you there.
0:52:05 > 0:52:07I'm bid £35...
0:52:07 > 0:52:12Let's go for it - do I see £40 for Lalique?
0:52:12 > 0:52:15£40, that's £10 a dish, surely.
0:52:15 > 0:52:17Getting a bad feeling here.
0:52:17 > 0:52:20Surely £40 do I see?
0:52:20 > 0:52:22I don't believe it.
0:52:22 > 0:52:26Very cheap at £35. They will be sold.
0:52:26 > 0:52:31- At £35... 40...- Ahhh! Thank God!
0:52:31 > 0:52:33Five... 50... five... 60. That's better.
0:52:33 > 0:52:3555 with me - do I see 60?
0:52:35 > 0:52:39Fair warning, they're going, they're going, they're going, gone.
0:52:39 > 0:52:42- Ohh!- Is that minus £115?
0:52:42 > 0:52:47I think it is. I think it's minus £115, that...
0:52:47 > 0:52:51that must be almost a record-breaking score for a single loss.
0:52:51 > 0:52:54- No!- Stand by, then, here come the lamps.
0:52:54 > 0:53:00176. Let's go, we've got a pair of late-Victorian style yacht lamps.
0:53:00 > 0:53:02There they are. Where do we start?
0:53:02 > 0:53:07I am bid on these decorative lights only £20, do I see two for them?
0:53:07 > 0:53:0920... I'll take two...
0:53:09 > 0:53:11let's go for it. £20... two...
0:53:11 > 0:53:13five... Do I see eight now?
0:53:13 > 0:53:15- You're all out? At 25...- Come on.
0:53:15 > 0:53:17- Eight... thank you.- Well done.
0:53:17 > 0:53:21I've got 30... and two... one more...
0:53:21 > 0:53:24Make a name for yourself, I'm out. And at £32, fair warning.
0:53:24 > 0:53:29I'll take 35... now otherwise £32, thanks for coming, they are yours.
0:53:29 > 0:53:33£32, well done, £32.
0:53:33 > 0:53:35You are minus £1 on that.
0:53:35 > 0:53:40- Such bad luck. Now the art glass - it's all down to you, Dave.- It is.
0:53:40 > 0:53:46Now, 177 is a very handsome, decorative art glass vase.
0:53:46 > 0:53:51Where do we start? I am bid, with three bids here.
0:53:51 > 0:53:54At 25... 28... 30... two...
0:53:54 > 0:53:57- Do I see five? Come on.- Come on.
0:53:57 > 0:53:58It can do more than that.
0:53:58 > 0:54:02- One more, sir.- Never mind one more, we need a hundred more!
0:54:02 > 0:54:0840 to the lady... I'll take two... one more surely, otherwise £40...
0:54:08 > 0:54:11Going, it's going at 40...
0:54:11 > 0:54:14£40, wiped its face, brilliant.
0:54:14 > 0:54:19There you go, you are minus £116 overall.
0:54:19 > 0:54:21What about this clockwork boat, then?
0:54:21 > 0:54:24- I think we've got to. - Oh, my gosh.
0:54:24 > 0:54:26Well, here it is, the little boat.
0:54:26 > 0:54:32181 is a very nice 1960s Sprite clockwork boat cruiser.
0:54:32 > 0:54:35Not quite my decade, but not far. Bit of interest here.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37- Come on, Charles. - And I am bid for this
0:54:37 > 0:54:39lot straight in £25...
0:54:39 > 0:54:43- Oooh!- Do I see eight? Eight... 32...
0:54:43 > 0:54:45five... eight... 42. I'm out.

0:55:02 > 0:55:04What about that? A profit of £17.
0:55:04 > 0:55:05I don't believe it.

0:55:43 > 0:55:46- No.- You haven't been talking at all? That's what we like.
0:55:46 > 0:55:49Unfortunately we have to have a team that is the runners-up
0:55:49 > 0:55:53- and today the runners-up just happen to be the Reds.- Oh-h!
