0:00:04 > 0:00:07Aye, aye! But will our teams have the vision
0:00:07 > 0:00:08to make a profit?
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Let's find out as we go bargain hunting.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44Derby University would not be the first place you'd think of coming to
0:00:44 > 0:00:46to find an antique fair
0:00:46 > 0:00:51but actually, it's like one vast interactive history lesson.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Our teams today have a lesson which lasts for an hour,
0:00:55 > 0:01:00during which time they have to find three items with their £300
0:01:00 > 0:01:03here at the Jaguar Antiques Fair.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06'On today's show...'
0:01:06 > 0:01:08- Look into these eyes.- All right.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10'..there are hypnotised dealers.'
0:01:10 > 0:01:14- And what's your best price? - 35. Works every time, you see.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18- 'Straight-talking sellers.' - What can you tell us about it?
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- It's a clock.- Yeah!
0:01:20 > 0:01:22'And a desperate auctioneer.'
0:01:22 > 0:01:25- One more!- One more bid, please. - Do you hear that?
0:01:25 > 0:01:30- £2 more!- Just £2! - Go on. One more.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34'But first let's meet the teams.'
0:01:34 > 0:01:36So it's the girls versus the boys today.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40We've got Becky and Suzy versus Dan and James.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43- Welcome, teams.- Hello. - Very nice to be here.- Hello.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Hiya. Now... Becky. What exactly do you do, darling?
0:01:46 > 0:01:50- I work here at the University of Derby.- You don't?- I do.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- In this very building? - This very building.- How lovely!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- You've not had to come far, have you? - Not very far at all, no, today.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00- Lovely. And what do you do here? - I work in the quality department
0:02:00 > 0:02:02for the faculty of art, design and technology.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06So we cover all the courses that go through for our particular area
0:02:06 > 0:02:11and make sure they're up to speed with what's going on in the rest of the university world.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- So that's where quality comes from? - Quality, yes.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- How lovely to be in the quality department.- Mm-hm.
0:02:17 > 0:02:23- What sort of antiques do you like, Becks?- I inherited some crockery from my aunt when she moved to Canada,
0:02:23 > 0:02:26which is an Island Worcester sunflower set,
0:02:26 > 0:02:29which I think is made in Jamaica but I really like it.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32It's old and very worn but I use it a lot, you know.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Yes. And how do you know Suzy?
0:02:35 > 0:02:38We both started here at the university at the same time
0:02:38 > 0:02:42and had to learn everything together, thrown in at the deep end.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- So you work together?- We do. - Suzy, is Becky a good work mate?
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Very good, yeah. We get on really well.
0:02:48 > 0:02:53We pretty much share a desk together, so we have to work well together
0:02:53 > 0:02:56and she's my senior, so she can kind of tell me what to do.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Is she your boss, then?- No.- No.- No!
0:03:00 > 0:03:02HE CHUCKLES Now, Suzy, it says here
0:03:02 > 0:03:07- that you have a reputation of being the posh one in the team. - Apparently so, yes.
0:03:07 > 0:03:13It says here that your father is Lieutenant Commander Peter Poolit Lethbridge Wells.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- That's not...- Does that mean that you're a Poolit Lethbridge Wells?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- I'm not a "Poolit". It's Poulitt. - I got that wrong.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24- Poulitt Lethbridge Wells. - Are you a Poulitt Lethbridge Wells?
0:03:24 > 0:03:29- I'm just a Wells.- Ah! - That's just his middle names, my dad's middle names.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- So he's...- Unusual.- So it's not triple-barrelled, your name?
0:03:32 > 0:03:34No! That would be posh.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- I think... I think that's how the reputation started, darling.- I know.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40I think that's why it is.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42So are you going to be a winning team?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- Definitely.- We're definitely a winning team.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48- We've got really good taste.- Yes. - And an eye for quality.- Definitely.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- I mean, you run the quality department here...- Yep.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55- You've got to be red hot.- We are. - We do run the quality department.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57- Red hot?- Red hot.- Yeah? Good.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00That's that sorted out. Now, boys, are you quaking in your boots?
0:04:00 > 0:04:04- Not at all.- Not at all. You've got some stiff competition here, though.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07- Do you think you can beat them? - Easily.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11I think we're like salt and pepper, so we're the perfect combination.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15I'm clever, good-looking and funny and Danny's the opposite.
0:04:16 > 0:04:17And modest.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21And you're good friends. That's the first miracle.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24Dan, it's no coincidence that you like a bit of salt and pepper, is it?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27No, I collect salt and pepper pots as my pastime.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- It started from my mother, so carrying that collection on.- Lovely.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34But you did have a scare once at auction, didn't you, Dan?
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Yeah, my boss sent me to a property and land auction
0:04:37 > 0:04:43and the... I accidentally bid on a piece of land worth 320,000.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- Did you buy it? - Fortunately not, no.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Someone outbid me at the back of the room, so...
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Phew! That was a relief.- Big relief. - Yeah.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57James, we don't want any mistakes like that. Can you really trust your teammate?
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Er, I think so.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02I think with the help of the specialist and my knowledge
0:05:02 > 0:05:05and Dan's salt and pepper pot knowledge, I think we'll get through.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09- Do you collect anything? - Erm, not so much myself.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14My Dad, he's got quite a large collection of agricultural tools.
0:05:14 > 0:05:19He was brought up on a farm, so ranging from tractors
0:05:19 > 0:05:23down to smaller things like woodworking planes.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27I would advise on Bargain Hunt that you resist buying a tractor.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31Anyway, this is the money moment. £300 apiece. Here's your £300.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34You know the rules, your experts await and off you go
0:05:34 > 0:05:35and very, very, very good luck.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38So while the girls and boys go out to play,
0:05:38 > 0:05:41let's meet their experts who'll be tutoring them.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45Swotting it up for the reds it's Kate Bliss
0:05:45 > 0:05:48and at the front of the class for the blues, it's David Harper.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50That's Sir to you.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Right, boys, have you any idea what to expect here or what?
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- Er, no! - LAUGHTER
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- Right, we're going.- Go!
0:06:06 > 0:06:10Both teams have a maximum of one hour to shop
0:06:10 > 0:06:12and with something catching Kate's eye,
0:06:12 > 0:06:15she's wasting no time in taking her team straight to it.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Lovely. Thank you.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- It doesn't look the same as... - Now, have a look.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24It is pottery as opposed to porcelain, of course.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26It's got quite a weight to it.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30And you've got this quite unusual white metal overlay on it.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35Now, as soon as I saw it, I thought Iznik pottery, very Eastern,
0:06:35 > 0:06:42but this in fact could be a later copy, perhaps Moroccan pottery,
0:06:42 > 0:06:47- dating I would think from about 1900, as opposed to the earlier Iznik pottery.- Right.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Having said that, it's a really great decorative piece.
0:06:50 > 0:06:55- I like it.- Yeah. I do. How well do you reckon it'll do?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Well, I think if it's catalogued properly,
0:06:58 > 0:07:03- I can see that doing 80 to 120.- OK. - Maybe on a good day even 150.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- What do you think then, girls? - I like it. It's different.- Yeah.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09I can see it in someone's house,
0:07:09 > 0:07:13it could be a modern house or some people that like antiques,
0:07:13 > 0:07:15so I think it's an all-rounder.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- Yeah?- I'd have it my house. - I would, too.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- OK, let's find out how much it is. - OK.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- Excuse me, sir?- Yeah? - How much is your charger here?
0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Well, I've got 95 on it at the moment.- OK.
0:07:24 > 0:07:28- But I can do a little bit. - Mm. What's your best?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Could you do, say, 70 for us?
0:07:30 > 0:07:34Er, it's a little bit low. 75?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- 75, what do you think, girls? - 75 sounds good to me.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Yeah.- Thank you very much. - No problem.- All right.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42- Brilliant.- Thank you.- Yes?- Perfect.
0:07:42 > 0:07:47Crikey, Kate, at this rate, you'll have finished your shopping before lunch.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50It looks like the blues are doing a bit more browsing first.
0:07:50 > 0:07:55That's a very decorative Japanese, Oriental, vase and cover.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59- Yeah.- Now, that shape has been around for centuries,
0:07:59 > 0:08:04going way back into the Ming dynasty from 1300 to 1600,
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- but that, I can tell you, is absolutely brand new.- OK.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Nothing wrong with it at all and a great decorator
0:08:11 > 0:08:14but we're going to struggle in auction.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17It's only 23 quid, so if you want it, take it home, fantastic.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20but it's not going to make much more at auction.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- Keep looking.- All right. - Keep looking.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25While the boys keep looking,
0:08:25 > 0:08:27the girls are heading straight for the bling.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32Let's pick it up. Are you horsy people?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35- You are a horsey person. - I'm a horsey person.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37- Yeah?- I'm not posh.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40It is really nicely done, isn't it? Really nicely cast.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43What do you think, Becky? Would you wear something like that?
0:08:43 > 0:08:48- Personally, no.- No.- No. - But do I like it? Yes.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- Erm, I'm not... - But if Suzy's not that keen.
0:08:51 > 0:08:5370... 78.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57So that's a no, then, but the boys are heading for more bling.
0:08:57 > 0:09:02A silver Victorian brooch with emeralds, diamonds, rubies and sapphires.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Do you think it might be out of our price range? Yeah!
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- Now, these are set with gem stones. - Right.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- And a little pearl in the middle. - Also very pretty.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- Do you like pretty?- I'm not sure about the colours in them.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20They're a bit, I don't know.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- Costumey.- Gaudy.- Yeah.- A bit too... - I think so, yeah.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- You're quite a traditional sort of girl, aren't you?- I am.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28- She is a traditional sort of girl. - I am.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31All that glitter has stopped the girls in their tracks
0:09:31 > 0:09:35but remember, it's profit we're looking for, not presents.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Is it a mustard pot? - Yeah, or... Let's have a look.
0:09:38 > 0:09:44- Well, that's lovely, isn't it? A typical George II design.- Mm-hm?
0:09:44 > 0:09:49- So the design is 1740, 1750. - That's right.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51With that lovely cabriole foot, there.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55But, you know, that design was created then with the shells
0:09:55 > 0:09:56but it's popular today.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59You can buy things that look like this brand new today.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02But with silver, we know from its markings,
0:10:02 > 0:10:06and from your very professionally labelled ticket here,
0:10:06 > 0:10:09"Mustard pot, Sheffield, 1899."
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Look, boys, it's down to price.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14- The ticket price is £85.- 85.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18Now, this gentleman is a great negotiator,
0:10:18 > 0:10:19I know him of old,
0:10:19 > 0:10:22and he's going to give you the best price in the world.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Just get prepared to be shocked at the discount this man's going to give you.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30I'll do that at 70.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34- What do you think? Bit too much? - Oh, I don't know.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35It's a good price, that, at 70.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38What about 65?
0:10:38 > 0:10:41I've got to make something myself.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43- Make it 50, then.- No!
0:10:43 > 0:10:46That'll be the day.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48No, I think that's a fair price.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52- Dan, what do you think? - What do you think?- £70?- Yeah.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56- Er, could it reach that at auction, then?- Well, we don't know.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59But we can't be criticised for buying something that isn't good.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02- It's a nice piece, isn't it? - I think that'll do well.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04You've got to go with you and your instincts.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- Yeah. It's a nice piece.- Yeah.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10We can't get you down to 65? Just to give us a bit of luck?
0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Go on, then.- Good man. - Thank you very much.- Thanks a lot.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- OK.- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:11:15 > 0:11:1920 minutes gone and the blues have finally caught up with the reds.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20One item each.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26- Oh, isn't it lovely? - For the horsy set.- Yes.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31People love, there's a huge market, for horse-related items.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Studded with a little diamond here
0:11:33 > 0:11:37and then you've got diamonds and black enamel here.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40- I'm not sold on that, to be honest. - No, I'm not.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- These girls! Fussy.- Very picky. - What do you like, then?
0:11:44 > 0:11:47- I prefer that pearl necklace. - You prefer that pendant?
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- That's not good, I take it? - No, well it is, it's lovely.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53It's got a lovely little cultured pearl, there,
0:11:53 > 0:11:55- a really nice, white creamy one.- Mm.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59And then you've got sapphires all the way round the outside.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Do you think that would sell well?
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Well, it has got quite a contemporary look about it,
0:12:04 > 0:12:05which a lot of people like.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- Pendants are very commercial... - Yeah.- ..as a piece of jewellery.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11What's the price, madam? What can you do for us on that?
0:12:11 > 0:12:15I've got 90 on it, I can do 60 as an absolute rock bottom
0:12:15 > 0:12:19and then that's got to give you at least £10 on that.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23- OK.- That would be very kind of you...- I'm a kind person. - ..if you'd be happy to go to 60.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Well, yes, so I see.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Are you happy with 60? - I'm happy with 60.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- Is that the sort of thing you would buy?- I probably would.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Suzy?- Yeah, I'd buy it, too. - Yeah, that sounds good.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- I'd definitely go for that.- Thank you.- Lovely. Thank you very much.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42At the auction, the teams will have to decide on a bonus buy
0:12:42 > 0:12:43but what exactly is it?
0:12:43 > 0:12:46The bonus buy? No.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Is that where they buy something and get them to swap it
0:12:49 > 0:12:51for something they've already purchased?
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Would you like to swap this for a mystery thing,
0:12:54 > 0:12:56which could be a bonus and make more money?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Is it like the third thing they buy or something or...?
0:12:59 > 0:13:01No, no, no, it's not like that at all.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03It's very simple.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07The bonus buy is when any leftover lolly from the shopping
0:13:07 > 0:13:10is given to the expert, who then shops for a fourth item
0:13:10 > 0:13:12which is revealed at the auction.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16If the team takes that object and it makes a profit,
0:13:16 > 0:13:18it's added to their total.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21If it makes a loss, then, frankly, it's deducted
0:13:21 > 0:13:23and that's the gamble.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Have you got it?
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Now just pay attention at the back, will you?
0:13:32 > 0:13:35- There's some interesting hatpins here.- Hatpins, yes.
0:13:35 > 0:13:40- Do you like hatpins?- Er, not for me, exactly.- Not for personal use.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42No, but they look quite interesting.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46After a flying start, are the reds starting to struggle?
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Clocks, clocks, clocks.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Lovely, thank you. What can you tell us about it?
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- It's a clock.- Yeah...
0:14:00 > 0:14:02I just noticed this item here.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04And what is that, then, boys? What do you think it is?
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- It's certainly interesting. - A sword and a ladder?
0:14:07 > 0:14:10- OK.- Some axes.
0:14:10 > 0:14:15Yeah, it looks like a prisoner of war piece of art, doesn't it?
0:14:15 > 0:14:16- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- So it's tools in a bottle. - As opposed to like a ship.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21As opposed to a ship or a message in a bottle.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26It's the kind of thing that prisoners of war during the First World War, '14 to '18,
0:14:26 > 0:14:30erm, would, you know, create to pass the time.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- Does it do anything for you? - I think it's...
0:14:34 > 0:14:38It's something really different, isn't it? I've never seen anything like this before.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43- I'd definitely be interested. - What about you, Dan?- It'd catch a few eyes at the auction.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45- It would, it would.- That's good.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50And where would you find another one? I've seen them before with tools in
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- but every single one is going to be unique.- It's unique.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Now, priced at 45. It doesn't sound bad.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00Erm, who's the best negotiator?
0:15:00 > 0:15:04- I think Dan might be. He's the one that usually buys...- Buys stuff.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Well, here's the chap. Dan, I'm going to give you the bottle.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10Look at that man and ask him what the absolute death is on that bottle.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14- What's it gonna be?- Well, you've been quoted 45, I believe.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- 45 on it, yeah.- 45 on it.
0:15:17 > 0:15:18A straight 40 would be the best.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21- 40.- It's a good price already, so... - Yeah, yeah.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25Look into these eyes. Are you ready? I'm gonna do it now.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27- What's the best price?- 35.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30LAUGHTER Works every time, you see.
0:15:30 > 0:15:34I'm not sure hypnosis is allowed under the Bargain Hunt rules, David.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36I'll have to look that one up.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39Both teams now have one last item to find
0:15:39 > 0:15:42and with just ten minutes left, it's decision time.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47- So what do you like, Suzy?- Erm, I'm quite drawn to these little bowls.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- And I do like that one as well. - That one there?- Yeah.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- That's a bit different. - It is a bit different, actually.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56The decoration's a lot more sparse on this one.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58This is actually really interesting.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02What you've got here is a French-style decoration on English Worcester
0:16:02 > 0:16:05and just to confuse you, you've got a mark on the back
0:16:05 > 0:16:07which isn't the Worcester mark,
0:16:07 > 0:16:10it's actually the French factory called Chantilly.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13So the fact that they're pretending to be French,
0:16:13 > 0:16:16that won't put anything against it?
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Not at all. That's quite a good selling point because it's unusual.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23OK. I think it's really sweet and really delicate.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25How much do you think it would go for in auction?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Well, the price on it is 88.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32I mean, typically, little Worcester saucers like this at auction
0:16:32 > 0:16:36would fetch anything from 40, I suppose, for a very common one,
0:16:36 > 0:16:40up to 60, 70, maybe £80, for something unusual.
0:16:40 > 0:16:45So I think it depends what price the stallholder can do for us.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49'While the girls think about the plate, the boys may have found their last item.'
0:16:51 > 0:16:56It's from the RAF No. 40 Squadron from Gosport in Hampshire.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58So that's interesting. And what's the scene here?
0:16:58 > 0:17:03It's got what looks like a Krakatoa or something, a volcano going off.
0:17:03 > 0:17:04Yes.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07So it's obviously foreign lands, a lake,
0:17:07 > 0:17:09but there's the squadron insignia.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Now, that makes it interesting.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13As an ordinary cigarette box, it's not very interesting
0:17:13 > 0:17:17but because it's Second World War, RAF, then it IS interesting.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21- You can imagine, sat on the airfields... - That's right.- ..hot summer's day,
0:17:21 > 0:17:24waiting for the siren, waiting to go. My goodness me.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27- Cigarettes, matchbox. - And it's in great condition.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30- How much have you got on this? - What does it say on the side?
0:17:30 > 0:17:34- £4.50.- 35 quid if you want it.
0:17:38 > 0:17:43- What do you think? - Can you not go to 25?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45I won't. You want it for nowt?
0:17:45 > 0:17:48- 35 quid.- 35.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51He's hard work, this one, I assure you.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53It could make 100 quid, that.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- It might make a tenner, as well. - Yeah, exactly.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58But it's... it's mechanical as well, isn't it?
0:17:58 > 0:18:00It shoves the fags at you.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02- Shoves the fags at you!- It does.
0:18:02 > 0:18:07- Can you meet us halfway at 30? - Yes.- Yes?- Please.- Good man.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09- OK. Are you happy, boys?- Thank you.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11- Yeah?- OK.- Thank you.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13- Good luck with it.- Thank you.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Yeah, good luck with it. Right, brilliant, we are done.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21'They're finished but the reds only have a few minutes left.'
0:18:21 > 0:18:25These saucers and tea bowls, would they do well?
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- I quite like the fact that they've got a set.- They would do well.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31That's a nice one, with the birds in branches.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35- I'd estimate that at 80 to 120 in my auction house.- OK.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38So which one do you think would go better at auction, sir?
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Erm, I think probably the Chantilly piece is the better auction piece,
0:18:42 > 0:18:43with it being more unusual.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45So what sort of price can you do for us?
0:18:45 > 0:18:48The best price I can do on that one is 70.
0:18:48 > 0:18:49OK.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53The Chantilly has the chance, because it's unusual,
0:18:53 > 0:18:56of two people thinking, "I'd like that in my collection,"
0:18:56 > 0:18:59and it making more than it might do otherwise.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01- OK.- I think that's swung it. - We should go for it.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- Take a risk with that one. - I really do like it.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- It's not going to make you a flying profit but it might make you a little bit.- OK.- OK.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- Yeah?- Scary! Yeah.- OK.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12We've got a chance with another one in there.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15And I think, I have to say, you are pretty much out of time.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19- OK, we'll go for that.- OK. We'll take that one, then, please. Lovely.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21No time for lunch, after all.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25With all the items in the bag and the whole hour used up,
0:19:25 > 0:19:27let's remind ourselves what the reds bought.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32Kate Bliss nabbed this Iznik-style charger for £75.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35Then the girls took their time over the bling,
0:19:35 > 0:19:37settling on this 1940s pendant.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42And an 18th century Worcester saucer made it into the bag
0:19:42 > 0:19:44in the dying minutes.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Now, girls, you are very cool, calm and collected, aren't you?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- Yes.- Yes.- In your posh, quality shopping.- Mm.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53- Was it good fun? - It was loads of fun, yes.
0:19:53 > 0:19:58- Which is your favourite piece, Becks? - It would be the big charger plate.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01- Suzy, your favourite? - The Worcester dish.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03- Oh, very posh, that.- Mm-hm.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?- The charger plate.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11- Yeah, I agree. - You had to agree with that?- Yeah. - Had to agree with the boss.- Mm.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13- But she's not my boss.- I'm not! - OK, fine.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17£205, you spent, which is quite magnificent.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21And that gives me £95 of leftover lolly going to Kate Bliss.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24- Thank you very much. - So was it good fun with these girls? - It was great.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27And they really were very cool and collected
0:20:27 > 0:20:29- in what they considered.- Yes.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32- Well, they're proper birds, you see. - They are.
0:20:32 > 0:20:37- I didn't get the frantic run-around I get with the blokes. - Hopeless, men contestants.
0:20:37 > 0:20:38Absolutely.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41- What are you going to do with the 95, sweetie?- I don't know.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45I just know that it's got to be quite classy, really, for those two.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Quite. Classy and quality, that's what they are.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48Writ all over them.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52Now, let's remind ourselves what the blues bought.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56The salt and pepper blues couldn't resist a good condiment,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58so they bought this silver mustard pot.
0:20:58 > 0:21:03This unusual tools in a bottle one-off caught the lads' attention
0:21:03 > 0:21:05for £35.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09And it may shove the fags at you, but will it shove them a profit?
0:21:09 > 0:21:14This RAF cigarette box could ignite the saleroom at £30.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18Well, you boys were certainly attracted to the unusual, weren't you?
0:21:18 > 0:21:19- That's correct.- Absolutely.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22So tell me, James, which is your favourite item?
0:21:22 > 0:21:26I think it's got to be the tool in a bottle. It's certainly different.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Tool in a bottle. OK, fine.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31And what about yours, Dan?
0:21:31 > 0:21:34I like the silver mustard pot that we bought.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- That's definitely a nice piece. - He goes for the condiments.
0:21:37 > 0:21:42- What's your prediction as to which piece will bring the biggest profit? - The tool in a bottle.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Hopefully it'll go well. It's just so unusual.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- OK, do you agree with that? - I'd agree with that.- Very sensible.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51You spent £130, which is pas mal,
0:21:51 > 0:21:56and I'll have £170 of leftover lolly for David for the bonus buy.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00- Thank you, Tim.- Has it been a good day for you?- We've had great fun, haven't we, boys?
0:22:00 > 0:22:01- Definitely.- It's been brilliant.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04And what have you got in mind to spend all that cash on?
0:22:04 > 0:22:08A few things in mind. Again, something out of the ordinary
0:22:08 > 0:22:11because what we've been doing is buying unusual items,
0:22:11 > 0:22:13so another unusual item is called for.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Well, you're the past master at the unusual and the unexpected...
0:22:17 > 0:22:19- Thank you.- ..so good luck with that.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22For me, I'm heading off somewhere absolutely spiffing.
0:22:23 > 0:22:29Actually, 120 miles down the M1 from Derby to Hatfield House.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35The original Hatfield Palace was built around 1485
0:22:35 > 0:22:37by John Morton, Bishop of Ely.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Then in 1607,
0:22:40 > 0:22:45the first Earl of Salisbury started to build Hatfield House.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50To this day, their descendants use it as a family home.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53All families have some colourful characters
0:22:53 > 0:22:55and Hatfield is no exception.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01It was one of these family members, the first Marchioness of Salisbury,
0:23:01 > 0:23:04who left a great impression on the place.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08The first marquis married Emily Mary Hill,
0:23:08 > 0:23:11who was described as domineering, striking
0:23:11 > 0:23:14and somewhat eccentric.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17She would, indeed, distribute golden coins
0:23:17 > 0:23:20from a velvet purse that she carried
0:23:20 > 0:23:22and literally throw them at the poor.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25She gambled deep into the night
0:23:25 > 0:23:28and was riding to hounds even in her eighties.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30She also had the rare distinction
0:23:30 > 0:23:33of burning down the west wing here at Hatfield,
0:23:33 > 0:23:38which apparently happened in 1835, when she was 85,
0:23:38 > 0:23:45when her vast, tall coiffure caught alight on a stray candle
0:23:45 > 0:23:48and she burnt the west wing down.
0:23:48 > 0:23:53Ever since then, the family have taken fire precautions rather more carefully.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Which is why we've got that socking great handle
0:23:56 > 0:23:59on the right-hand side of the grate
0:23:59 > 0:24:03because they installed a series of drop-down shutters
0:24:03 > 0:24:06which appear when you wind the handle.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08So that effectively, when nobody's in the room,
0:24:08 > 0:24:14the fire can be shut down and a spark won't appear to burn down this wing.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19This set of 14 dining chairs is a further reminder
0:24:19 > 0:24:21of the first Marchioness.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24If you go to pick them up, you find that they're incredibly heavy.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28That's because they're made of a Chinese hardwood
0:24:28 > 0:24:30called hua huang li.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34But there's something curious about the dating.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Because on the back of this chair,
0:24:36 > 0:24:38it says in an oval reserve,
0:24:38 > 0:24:44"EMS", which are the First Marchioness's initials.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47And it says T. LeBlanc LLD.
0:24:47 > 0:24:52And Mr LeBlanc apparently was a lawyer and neighbour
0:24:52 > 0:24:57and he presented these chairs to Lady Salisbury,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00as it says here, in 1819.
0:25:00 > 0:25:04So he has presented to the first Marchioness this set of chairs
0:25:04 > 0:25:08but if you look at the style of the chair,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10with this pierced splat back,
0:25:10 > 0:25:13these incredibly old-fashioned cabriole legs,
0:25:13 > 0:25:17the style of the chair is more like 1740.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20So it's a mystery.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22There's another mystery to solve, of course, today
0:25:22 > 0:25:27and that is exactly how much profit are our teams going to make
0:25:27 > 0:25:28over at the auction?
0:25:42 > 0:25:45Well, it's grand to be on the outskirts of Derby
0:25:45 > 0:25:48at Bamfords saleroom with James Lewis.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50- James.- Great to have you. - Very nice to be here.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Now, your first job is to tell us what you think
0:25:53 > 0:25:57about this socking great metal overlaid bowl
0:25:57 > 0:26:00- which our team bought.- Mm.
0:26:00 > 0:26:05- Is it good?- Yeah, I think it's got a good interior designer's look.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09You can imagine it in homes and antiques magazine or something like that,
0:26:09 > 0:26:12- sitting on the sofa with a pile of carpet bowls in it.- Yes.
0:26:12 > 0:26:16- Or oranges.- Yeah.- Yeah. No, it's a good-looking thing.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- How old do you think it is? - Not very old.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Mid-20th century, I should think.
0:26:20 > 0:26:26- So, how much?- Erm, £40-60. - Cos they paid £75.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Where do you think we stand with this?
0:26:28 > 0:26:32- You'd be lucky if you get £50? - 40 to 60.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35- He really means 40 to 60. - I think it's worth 40 to 60.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- OK, fine. Next is the little pendant. - Yeah.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42Apparently, tiny chips of sapphire and a pearl.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Erm, how's that going to go?
0:26:44 > 0:26:46It's pretty,
0:26:46 > 0:26:51it's the sort of thing that a private little lady might go for.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54- Not a big lady?- No, it's a little necklace.- Oh, I see, yes.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58- £40-£60, I think. - OK, they paid £60.- OK.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00- So they'll be lucky if they make a profit on that.- Yeah.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03What about this saucer dish, this Worcester saucer dish?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05I hadn't got a clue, I have to say.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08I had to ask Annabel in our ceramics department
0:27:08 > 0:27:12and she said, "It's clearly Worcester, it's got the Chantilly fake mark
0:27:12 > 0:27:15"and it's blah, blah, blah," and told me all about it.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17And she says it's worth £40-50.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20- They paid 70.- Ooh!
0:27:20 > 0:27:25- So there's some difficulty, I would see, here...- Yeah. - ..in making a splendido profit,
0:27:25 > 0:27:29in which case they're going to need their bonus buy, so let's have a look.
0:27:29 > 0:27:34- Now, Becky, Suzy, you gave Kate £95, yes?- Mm-hm.- Yes.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37And she's going to show you what she spent it on, aren't you?
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Here we go.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41In my hot little hand...
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- Now, I know you girls like your jewellery.- Yes, we do.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46- So I have bought you...- Ah!
0:27:46 > 0:27:51- Those look a little bit familiar. - Yes, we did look at these. - We did.- We did.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54But they are, of course, in the Victorian style.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58They are pearl cluster earrings in gold, 18 carat,
0:27:58 > 0:28:03and with these little pearls set in, very much in the Victorian style.
0:28:03 > 0:28:05The Victorians loved their pearls.
0:28:05 > 0:28:09But these are modern, which for some people makes them more desirable.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13Some women don't like to buy period jewellery or jewellery that's been worn,
0:28:13 > 0:28:17so in actual fact, that would be a good selling point
0:28:17 > 0:28:20- for some buyers at auction.- Yeah. - There we are. Have a look.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24- How much did you get them for? - £60.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26- £60.- What do you think they'll make?
0:28:26 > 0:28:29Well, I think that they have a chance of making a small profit.
0:28:29 > 0:28:34I'm not saying they're going to absolutely fly away but they could make a small one.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37- OK.- So...- We'll have a think.
0:28:37 > 0:28:41- Why don't you like them, Suze? - I do like them
0:28:41 > 0:28:43but I just... I don't know.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46- You wouldn't buy them for yourself. - I wouldn't.- Right.
0:28:46 > 0:28:52And I know that they're modern and I like a bit more older...
0:28:52 > 0:28:55- You like a bit of age.- I do. - Quite right, too.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58- I do.- You hold that thought, girls,
0:28:58 > 0:29:02but let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the earrings.
0:29:03 > 0:29:04So, James, there we go.
0:29:04 > 0:29:09- Now, you haven't got pierced ears, so they're no good for you. - Used to have.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11- Oh, really?- Yeah, up here somewhere.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14- Oh, right. Top pierced rather than bottom pierced.- Yeah.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17So what do you think they're worth, these?
0:29:17 > 0:29:20- Around £30-50. - Do you?- Something like that.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24They're pretty but they are brand, spanking new.
0:29:24 > 0:29:28Kate paid 60, so she may well be lucky to get a profit on that.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- Kate's probably better than I am, so we'll see.- We'll see.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35Well, what happens happens, doesn't it, frankly?
0:29:35 > 0:29:37That's it for the reds. Now for the blues.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40And first up for Dan and James is the mustard pot.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43Yep, a standard thing, a standard model.
0:29:43 > 0:29:46It would've been in a little leather-covered box
0:29:46 > 0:29:49with a pepperette and an open salt.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52- It's lost its friends.- Yes, it has. - And it's lost its case.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54You can get a Georgian one for £80,
0:29:54 > 0:29:57so for a reproduction style, Georgian style,
0:29:57 > 0:30:01- I'm going to say 30 to 40. - Which is quite generous.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03- £65 was paid. - Ooh, blimey, that's a lot.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05- So that's cantering on, isn't it? - Yes, it is.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08Yes, next, James, is the ship in the bottle,
0:30:08 > 0:30:13except it's not a ship, it's some weird collection of wooden tools.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16I've never, ever seen anything quite like it. It's really odd.
0:30:16 > 0:30:21- I'd much rather have a ship... - So would I.- ..than that heap of woodwork in there.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23- I can't imagine many people wanting it.- No.
0:30:23 > 0:30:26- What's your estimate?- £15-25. - £35 paid.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29- Oh. Loss, I think. - Yes, loss on that.- Yeah.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33- Now, the World War 2 cigarette box. - Yeah.
0:30:33 > 0:30:38Little marquetry box. Just happens to have 40 Squadron on it,
0:30:38 > 0:30:42which is nice because it pitches it at the RAF quite neatly
0:30:42 > 0:30:46- and people do collect RAF-related memorabilia, don't they?- They do.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48It's a strange box, I think,
0:30:48 > 0:30:51because it's got sample wood, it's almost like olive wood,
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Yes. I mean, you feel it's been foreign made.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58- Yeah.- Far East.- Japanese, something like that.- Yes.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00It's quite a nice little box
0:31:00 > 0:31:03but I don't know how you feel about the value, here?
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Oh, I should think £20-£30.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08- £20-£30.- Yeah.- Brilliant.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11They paid £30, so they might just get close enough.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14But overall, there's some problems here
0:31:14 > 0:31:18and they're going to need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22Now, James and Dan, this is your bonus buy moment.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26You gave David Harper £170 of leftover lolly.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28- Did he blow the lot?- Did he not.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33- Gosh.- Have you any idea what that might be?
0:31:34 > 0:31:36I've got no idea what that is.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Well, it's a cup, a late 19th century,
0:31:38 > 0:31:42Chinese famille rose - that's the decoration - cup.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46We've got painted on the outside a group of immortals.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48We have an immortal figure on the inside
0:31:48 > 0:31:50and it would be used to drink rice wine.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53But there's something else going on here.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56If you look inside, there's a hole, a cheeky little hole.
0:31:56 > 0:32:00So it's a Chinese joke cup.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03So I would welcome you to my home, I'd give you this cup,
0:32:03 > 0:32:04ask if you'd like some rice wine.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06You'd accept, of course.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10I'd pour you some rice wine and you'd take a sip and the rice wine will pour down you.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13So what a great trick. Wouldn't you want to do that?
0:32:13 > 0:32:16- I always do that to my mates. - LAUGHTER
0:32:17 > 0:32:20- How much did you pay for it? - Well, I had 170 left.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22- I spent the 70.- OK.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25So, James, what do you think about this joke pot?
0:32:25 > 0:32:29It's certainly unusual. I've never seen anything like it before.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34- What do you think, Dan? - I still think he's underwhelmed.
0:32:35 > 0:32:39Well, it's certainly very unusual, David, and full marks for that.
0:32:40 > 0:32:45Hold the thought. Let's find out whether the auctioneer gets the joke.
0:32:47 > 0:32:52James, you've got a great sense of humour. Tell me where the joke is in this joke cup.
0:32:53 > 0:32:57Other than having a funny little Chinaman sitting in your cup...
0:32:57 > 0:33:01- In your sake.- He's got a hole under his skirt, hasn't he?- Yes.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04- And a hole there. - And a hole in the bottom.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07- Funny little fellow, isn't he? - He is.- But quite amusing.
0:33:07 > 0:33:09I just don't see where the joke is.
0:33:09 > 0:33:13If you fill it and it lets out fluid all over your friend's kimono,
0:33:13 > 0:33:16I suppose that's a huge Oriental joke.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19I can imagine that would be slightly amusing.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21But that's the top and bottom of it.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24And what do you think it would make in the auction?
0:33:24 > 0:33:26- £30-40?- You must be joking?
0:33:27 > 0:33:30- No!- He paid 70. - Oh - that's the joke.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32That's the joke!
0:33:32 > 0:33:34Very good, Lewis.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38- We'll leave all the joking to you on the rostrum. Good luck.- Thank you.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55- Now, Becks and Suze, this is exciting, isn't it?- Very exciting.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59- You really want to win today, don't you?- Yes.- Really want to win.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01You want to beat those boys into the ground.
0:34:01 > 0:34:05Anyway, first lot up is Iznik bowl and here it comes.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07There we are. Great lot.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11Good interior decorator's piece, a pewter overlay with it
0:34:11 > 0:34:14and I can start the bidding at £45 and 50, now.
0:34:14 > 0:34:1750 standing, sir. Five. 60.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18Five, 70, five.
0:34:18 > 0:34:2180 beats it. At £80. Has anyone five now?
0:34:21 > 0:34:23At £80, with you in the red.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25At 80 and five now.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27At £80. Any advance?
0:34:27 > 0:34:29At 80. Anybody else in the room?
0:34:29 > 0:34:31At £80. It's a nice lot, this one.
0:34:31 > 0:34:37- At 80...- £80. That's brilliant. £5 profit, straight up.
0:34:37 > 0:34:42Lot number 701, the 1940s pendant with the cultured pearl
0:34:42 > 0:34:45surrounded by little pretty sapphires
0:34:45 > 0:34:48and £42 is the underbid and so £45 starts it.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52At 45. 48, now. At 45, 48 anywhere?
0:34:52 > 0:34:5448, 50.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57Five? No, at 50 with me. And five now.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59- At £50. Do I see five? - Come on, come one.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02- 55.- 55.- Yes!- 60.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04Five? It's against you.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06At £60. One more?
0:35:06 > 0:35:10- One more!- Come one.- At £60. No.
0:35:10 > 0:35:11At 60. 65 anywhere?
0:35:11 > 0:35:15At 60. With me at £60...
0:35:15 > 0:35:17- Oh!- Wiped its face.- Yeah.- £60. - Not bad.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20- No profit, no loss. - We've got ourselves a fiver.
0:35:20 > 0:35:25Lot number 702 is the 18th century Worcester saucer.
0:35:25 > 0:35:31I have one bid at £40 and one higher, so 45. 50 anywhere?
0:35:31 > 0:35:3550 do I see? At £45. And 50, now.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37At 45, 50 anywhere?
0:35:37 > 0:35:40At 45... Is that all?
0:35:40 > 0:35:41At 45...
0:35:42 > 0:35:44- Ow!- £45.- Ouch.
0:35:44 > 0:35:49That's five off 50, that's minus 25, so overall, you're minus 20.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53You are minus £20. The big question is, the bonus buy, the earrings.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56Are you going to go with the bonus buy or not?
0:35:56 > 0:35:59- I think we should.- You want to go with the bonus buy?- I think so.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03- Quickly, are you going to go with the bonus buy?- Kate?- Your decision.
0:36:03 > 0:36:05- Quickly!- Yes!- Yes! - You're going with the bonus buy.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Are you sure?- They're going with the bonus buy.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10- Maybe we should go no.- No. Wait.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13- These are pearl earrings. - Are you going with it or not?
0:36:13 > 0:36:15- No!- Yes.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17- Look, we have to...- Yes!- Yes!
0:36:17 > 0:36:22You are going with them. They're going with the bonus buy and they're selling them! Strewth!
0:36:22 > 0:36:24At 32, 35 now.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26At £32. And five.
0:36:26 > 0:36:2935, anywhere? At 32.
0:36:29 > 0:36:3235, 38. And 40 anywhere?
0:36:32 > 0:36:34- 40 by the door. 42? - Come on, come on.
0:36:35 > 0:36:3645.
0:36:36 > 0:36:3848. And 50.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41And two. 55.
0:36:41 > 0:36:4358.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45Now, at £58. It's against you.
0:36:45 > 0:36:48At £58. 60, anywhere?
0:36:48 > 0:36:50- One more!- One more bid, please.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53- Do you hear that?- £2 more!
0:36:53 > 0:36:55- Just £2!- 60, go on.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57One more. No?
0:36:57 > 0:36:59- Blank expression.- Oh!
0:36:59 > 0:37:01I know, I'm sorry.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03- Go on. They think you're mean. - LAUGHTER
0:37:03 > 0:37:06- You have agreement. - CHEERING
0:37:07 > 0:37:11There we are. At £58. Are you sure? Are we all done?
0:37:11 > 0:37:17£58. You're minus £2 on that, which means overall you're minus 22.
0:37:17 > 0:37:22But seriously, minus £22 could be a winning score
0:37:22 > 0:37:25cos they may not do so brilliantly, those boys,
0:37:25 > 0:37:30- so you could still be winning with minus £22, so don't tell them anything.- We won't.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33- Don't say a word.- Poker face. Poker face.- Yes.- Poker face.
0:37:38 > 0:37:41So, chaps, have you been chatting to those red chicks?
0:37:41 > 0:37:46- No?- No.- You've not been talking about the score? We won't go into scoring with the girls,
0:37:46 > 0:37:48that's not going to be a healthy development.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52Anyway, first up, then, is your mustard pot, and here it comes.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Lot 725, the mustard.
0:37:55 > 0:37:59And I can start the bidding here at £25.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01At 25, the silver mustard. 30, sir.
0:38:01 > 0:38:0535, 40. 40 to the right. And 45?
0:38:05 > 0:38:09- 45 do I see? At 40 to the right. - Come on.- Come on.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- £40.- Solid silver little mustard in George II style.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15At £40. Any advance?
0:38:15 > 0:38:17At 40...
0:38:17 > 0:38:21- Oh!- £40 only, that's minus £25. - Not so brilliant, that.
0:38:21 > 0:38:22- Now...- Not good.
0:38:22 > 0:38:29Lot 726, is the World War, prisoner of war, tools in a bottle.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32There we are. And I can start the bidding at £18.
0:38:32 > 0:38:3420 starts it, 22 now.

0:38:44 > 0:38:4840 do I see? At £38 here and 40, now.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50At £38. Any advance?
0:38:50 > 0:38:51At 38...
0:38:52 > 0:38:56- £38 is brilliant. Plus £3.- Whoo-hoo!
0:38:56 > 0:39:00Which means you are only minus £22. Everything to go for, boys.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01This is exciting.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04Lot 727 is the World War Two,
0:39:04 > 0:39:08rectangular walnut and olive wood cigarette box.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12Nicely inlaid on the top and I can start the bidding here at £18.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15At 18 and 20. 20 do I see?
0:39:15 > 0:39:17- At £18. - It's worth more than that.- 20.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20Two, 25. 28 in the red?
0:39:20 > 0:39:26- 28 and 30? 32.- Yes!- It's worth it. - Come on, look at this.- Go on.
0:39:26 > 0:39:2831, then. Thank you. 31.
0:39:28 > 0:39:3132! 32. 33.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- People want it.- 33 standing. 34.
0:39:34 > 0:39:3635. 36.
0:39:36 > 0:39:3838. And 40.
0:39:38 > 0:39:4039, then.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43- Go on, one more.- Go on!
0:39:43 > 0:39:44At £38 in the white.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46At 38. 39?
0:39:46 > 0:39:48- Whoo!- 40, 42. - Yes!- He's smashing it now.
0:39:48 > 0:39:5042, yes? 42.
0:39:50 > 0:39:5245. 45 for you?
0:39:53 > 0:39:56Do you want 43, then?
0:39:56 > 0:40:00- Yes?- He's squeezing them.- No. At £42, that was definite.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02At 42. Any advance?
0:40:02 > 0:40:04At £42. Are we all sure?
0:40:05 > 0:40:07Well done. We're plus £12 on that,
0:40:07 > 0:40:10which means overall, you are minus £10.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13- Minus £10.- Wow.- This is so exciting, isn't it?
0:40:13 > 0:40:18Now, what are you going to do? Are you going to go with the joke cup for £70 or bank your £10.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21I think it's a bit too specialist for the auction today.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23- Do you agree with that? - I'd agree with that.
0:40:23 > 0:40:27- I think it'll be not the right audience.- Too specialist, he said.
0:40:27 > 0:40:31I am offended. No, I'm not really. I do understand.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33You've got to make this decision and it's vital.
0:40:33 > 0:40:35We'll go with it. We'll go with it.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38You're going to go with it? Quickly! You're changing your mind?
0:40:38 > 0:40:42- We're going to do it. Are you happy with that, Dan?- Yeah.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44- OK, here it comes.- Oh, no!
0:40:44 > 0:40:49Lot number 731. The famille rose joke cup.
0:40:49 > 0:40:53This is a fun little thing with a little Chinaman
0:40:53 > 0:40:55sitting in the centre.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58If you think that's fun, let's have a go at £30.
0:40:58 > 0:41:0130 anywhere? Give it to somebody you don't like.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03£30, 35, £40.
0:41:03 > 0:41:0645, 50, five. 60.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09Five. 62? At 60.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11- 62 do I see?- Come on!
0:41:11 > 0:41:14At £60. And two, now. Are we all done? At 60...
0:41:15 > 0:41:17- Bad luck, David. - It could've been worse.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20- It could.- It could've been a lot worse.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22That was an amazing last-minute decision, there.
0:41:22 > 0:41:26I was certain you weren't going with it, then you did go with it.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28- Doubled our loss.- You got in there.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31Anyway, overall, then... Bad luck. You're minus £10 on that.
0:41:31 > 0:41:32Overall you're minus 20.
0:41:32 > 0:41:35- I do not want you to talk to the reds, all right?- OK.
0:41:35 > 0:41:39Go out looking very miserable, if that's possible.
0:41:39 > 0:41:40- All right?- All right.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43Congratulations, though. Well done. See you later.
0:41:47 > 0:41:52Well, there's been considerable rivalry between the teams today, I have to tell you.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55Battle of the sexes or what?
0:41:55 > 0:42:00And it is as close as a bit of gnat's whatnot between these two teams.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03Actually only £2. GASPS
0:42:03 > 0:42:06- £2!- Just a question of the scale of the losses...- No!
0:42:06 > 0:42:08And the team that's marginally behind...
0:42:08 > 0:42:10is the reds. GROANING AND CHEERING
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Sorry, girls.
0:42:13 > 0:42:18You're minus £22, that's all it is, and the boys are minus 20.
0:42:18 > 0:42:20How, how rough is that?
0:42:20 > 0:42:22- That's tough to take. - That is tough to take.
0:42:22 > 0:42:26- Have you enjoyed the programme? - Yeah.- It's been great.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29We've loved having you on board, all three of you.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31- Now, boys...- Yes!
0:42:31 > 0:42:33- You'll be pleased about this.- Very.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Coming ahead, marginally, by only losing £20.
0:42:36 > 0:42:41Of course, you went with the bonus buy and scored another tenner on that.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44One moment, you were minus 10 but, anyway, there it is.
0:42:44 > 0:42:47- It was a joke, wasn't it? - It was a bit of a joke.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49You've been brilliant, all three of you.
0:42:49 > 0:42:52- You had a good time? - Brilliant.- Brilliant.
0:42:52 > 0:42:53We've loved having you.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?
0:42:56 > 0:42:57Yes!
