0:00:02 > 0:00:04Oyez! Oyez! Oyez!
0:00:04 > 0:00:11Please welcome, to Bargain Hunt, the right honourable, Mr Tim Wonnacott!
0:00:11 > 0:00:17Oh, yes, I could get used to having town criers on the programme! You got anything else to say?
0:00:17 > 0:00:19Let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:19 > 0:00:20He's right!
0:00:20 > 0:00:25I just wonder whether he and his brother are going to be equally good at making profits?!
0:00:25 > 0:00:28HE PLAYS TRUMPET
0:00:57 > 0:01:02This is the International Antiques and Collectibles Fair at Newark,
0:01:02 > 0:01:08Europe's largest antique event with nearly 4,000 stalls on offer.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12You know something? Our contestants need to know their onions!
0:01:12 > 0:01:19Choosing three antiques in one hour with £300 on this chilly, snowy day,
0:01:19 > 0:01:25is all that stands in the way of our teams hopefully making a profit at auction.
0:01:25 > 0:01:30And if they make any extra lolly, they get to keep it. Easy, eh?
0:01:30 > 0:01:34Well, I can assure you, it's not that easy here, so let's meet today's challengers.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43And here they are! Two teams of brothers and sisters.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45For the Reds, we've got Simon and Phillip, welcome.
0:01:45 > 0:01:50- And for the Blues, we've got sisters Joanna and Sarah. - Hiya!
0:01:50 > 0:01:54Very, very nice to see you. Simon, have you always been a town crier?
0:01:54 > 0:01:56No, I haven't.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00- I was appointed in August of last year.- Oh, you're a novice.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Very new to the trade.
0:02:02 > 0:02:08- Is it good fun?- I find it good fun, yes, shouting for a hobby is a nice way of spending your time.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12- But you were in the services before?- Yes, I was in the Royal Air Force.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16And during my time in the Royal Air Force, I was a drill instructor.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19You were barking at people every day of the week doing that.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23Yes, I used to get paid to shout then, now I just do it for fun.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Excellent.
0:02:24 > 0:02:29Phil, we saw you blowing your trumpet, so you're obviously musical.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31- Tell us about that. - Yes, a little bit musical.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34I play soprano cornet for a band at Birchington.
0:02:34 > 0:02:40The band itself got asked to take part in a film called Exodus.
0:02:40 > 0:02:45It's a low-budget film that was filmed in Margate and one or two other places.
0:02:45 > 0:02:51We did that, I was there all day and for that famous bit, it was two or three seconds of the film.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53What sort of things will you buy today?
0:02:53 > 0:02:57- I fancy buying some silver. - Do you?- Yes.- Any old silver?
0:02:57 > 0:03:01- No, something that's going to make us a few quid.- Ah, that's the right attitude.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Anyway, good luck, boys. Now, for the sisters.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Have you got a lot in common, you two?
0:03:06 > 0:03:11We're both teachers. Sarah works at Haven High in Boston, and I work at Skegness Junior School.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Both absolutely adore shopping.
0:03:13 > 0:03:18- And spending money.- Surprise, surprise. But you do share collections.- We do.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23We have a collection of bangles and bracelets, which we share.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27We've worked out we've got about 160 between us and it's really good.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Was sort of thing will you be looking out for today?
0:03:29 > 0:03:34I really fancy something sparkly, something girly, girly.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- Something to go with the bangle collection?- Or something to but the bangles in.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Yes. Of course, you can't keep what you buy.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- I know.- A huge profit, that's what we're after.- That's what we want.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49They're going to be good, these sisters. We're going to have a great programme today.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Now, £300 there's your money moment, £300 apiece.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56You know the rules, the experts await, and off you go!
0:03:56 > 0:04:01And very good luck! So, that's the teams, let's roll out the experts!
0:04:03 > 0:04:08Both teams will be spending their £300 with the support of an expert.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11For the Reds, the decadent David Harper.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16And for the Blues, the mischievous Mark Stacey.
0:04:16 > 0:04:23- Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Oh, no!- Do you think we'll ever make the Antiques Roadshow?- Oh, yes.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30So, away they go. Three objects to find in just one hour.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33And if you spot anything, do say so, don't hold back.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34Just say, what's that, Mark?
0:04:34 > 0:04:36What about this one?
0:04:36 > 0:04:41Crikey, 30 seconds in, and they've made a find. Let's take another look.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Don't hold back. Just say, what's that, Mark?
0:04:44 > 0:04:46What about this one?
0:04:46 > 0:04:50- Which? Now why do you like that? - The colour, first of all.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- The colour is lovely. - Yes. And then I like just the way it swirls around. Just feel it.
0:04:54 > 0:05:00- That sort of rippling.- Yes. - There doesn't appear to be any signature on that.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02It looks very much like a factory called Webb.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Do you like it?
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- I do like it, actually. Yes, I do. - Would you have it at home yourself?
0:05:10 > 0:05:15I would, yes. It could be quite nice as a centrepiece for the middle of the table.
0:05:15 > 0:05:20- That's a good sign - somebody else might like it.- It looks quite modern.
0:05:20 > 0:05:25In terms of the date, it's anywhere between 1920 and 1950, I guess.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Probably nearer the 1920s because it's quite a nice sort of wear on there.
0:05:29 > 0:05:36You can imagine what that flat base, when you keep putting it down and picking it up, it would scratch,
0:05:36 > 0:05:40you'd expect to see that on there. I think it depends on the price, really.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45- It's marked up at 65. We'd need to get it down a bit. - Definitely, yes.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50Is it something you want to ask the dealer about?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52- Yes, we can do. - I think he's over there.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57Why don't you smile sweetly, and you need to think about half that price.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Half?- If you can.- Right.
0:05:59 > 0:06:05I'll leave it up to you, because your two pretty faces might swing yet.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- We'll try!- Good luck. See you in a minute.- Thank you.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13So, as the Blues sort out a deal, let's see if the Reds are as fast as fast out of the traps.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16What kind of things are we looking for?
0:06:16 > 0:06:22- What sort of stuff do you like? - Something with the military link. - OK. Same for you, Phil?- Yes.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26Or some nice, cheap pots.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30That's awful!
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- Next one. Next one.- Let's move on.
0:06:33 > 0:06:39- Something is going to jump out. - That's unusual.- Oh, no, put it down. - You don't like anything!
0:06:39 > 0:06:44Come on, lads, no time for dawdling, seeing as the Blues aren't hanging around.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Another £5 and that's...but that's a good price for one of those.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50- So what we're saying is...- 45.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52- 45. Yes.- How are we doing, girls?
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- The gentleman has been very kind. - 45.
0:06:55 > 0:06:5745?! Do you like it?
0:06:57 > 0:07:02- We do.- Well, that's the main thing. Shall we go for it?
0:07:02 > 0:07:08- Yes.- One down, two to go, and with only ten minutes gone,
0:07:08 > 0:07:10they could be done in only half-an-hour.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14- That looks like Poole. - Well spotted.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17I'm quite liking that.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19- I don't like it.- Poole Pottery.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Yeah, what is it?
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- What do you use it for? - Well, it's potpourri.- Flowers.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- It's a piece of art, isn't it, really?- How much is it?
0:07:28 > 0:07:35- At the moment, it's 65.- You're clever. You said Poole before you turned it upside down.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39Oh, yes, I've seen it on programmes before.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41I think he's the secret expert.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43I don't think he's an expert!
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Don't forget, I'm his brother!
0:07:46 > 0:07:50The only thing I'd question, see that little ding there,
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- I reckon something has gone off in the kiln there.- You think it could be a second?
0:07:54 > 0:07:57- I think so, yeah. - I don't think so, personally.- No?
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Datewise, come on, you're the Poole expert.
0:08:01 > 0:08:06- I'd put that probably late '60s to early-'70s.- He's very good, isn't he?
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- He's a Poole dealer.- Is that a good guess?- Yes, you're bang on.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14But it's trendy now. 65, shall we get a price on it?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- Yes?- Yeah.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17Let's get a price.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Price on this, 65?
0:08:21 > 0:08:2350's going to be the best on that one.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Oh. Any chance of about 30?
0:08:26 > 0:08:30No, sorry, I can't, I paid more than that for it. I'll do another five.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- 45.- Shall we try and meet halfway?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34- At 40?- Yet, I think so.
0:08:34 > 0:08:40- Meet us halfway at 40 and we'll have it.- Go on then. I'll do it for 40. - Yes! Good girl! Well done. 40.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42OK, first purchase, well done.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48So, the brothers strike back. Over to the blues.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52It's good to see they've not finished shopping already.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54- That's quite funky, isn't it? - Oh, that is.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57Is there any age to it, do you think?
0:08:57 > 0:08:59I'm not sure. It looks sort of bohemian.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Yeah.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04You seem to be going for the glass odd-shaped things.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06But look at those little glasses.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10- Do you do sambuca shots at home?- No.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- Are you sure?- I'm sure.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- I'm not convinced! I'm not convinced!- She'd only need one! - It's supposed to be 1920s.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19It's probably Czechoslovakian.
0:09:19 > 0:09:26Can you imagine, you've got your friends around, and if you got those out, it would be weird and unusual.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- Especially if you've had a drink. - You want to ask the lady?- We can do.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Take that with you. That has the price on it.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Then report back to me, that we'll have confab.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- Good luck, ladies.- Thank you.
0:09:37 > 0:09:41These sisters clearly shop together all the time.
0:09:41 > 0:09:48- Can the same they said for the Reds. - What kind of things do you fancy, Phil? What stuff catches your eye?
0:09:48 > 0:09:49I'd like to try and get some silver.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51OK. Solid silver?
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Yes.
0:09:53 > 0:09:59Let's hope there's plenty around. Now, how are the girls getting on with the glass decanter?
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Well, I think it's quite fun.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Are you happy with that? - We think it's really unusual.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09- It's £20 off, isn't it? - Yes, and it's very kind of the lady. - It's got glasses as well.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- We saw them, yes. - We got the six-shot glasses?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Yes. We've got to find some friends.
0:10:14 > 0:10:20- Absolutely! So, are we gonna have it?- Yes.- 55. Well done, girls. Thank you.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Phil. Come and have a look at this.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29- Yes, Si.- Have a look at that. That's heavy, isn't it? It's bronze.- How old would that be?
0:10:29 > 0:10:35I think probably early 20th century, maybe late 19th, early 20th, but the Germans and the Austrians
0:10:35 > 0:10:39are really well known for making small little bronzes of animals.
0:10:39 > 0:10:40Horses, dogs.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44And very often, they paint them, so you call it cold painted.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Because it's cast, it then goes cold and then they paint it.
0:10:47 > 0:10:52- And the cold paint rubs off in time. - It's quite good detail. - I like him. It's got a nice face.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55- Are they collectible? - Very, very collectible.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Very collectible.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01- What's the best on that? - It has to be 45.
0:11:01 > 0:11:0445? A little piece a bronze.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06It's not a million miles away.
0:11:06 > 0:11:07No?
0:11:07 > 0:11:11Is there any way you could go to a figure with a three on the front of it?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- No.- What about 40.- I'd do it for 40.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18- OK. That would be it. - That's very...
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- What do you reckon? - Yeah. The chap is being fair.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25What sort of profit do you think we could make with that then?
0:11:25 > 0:11:28I think it might do quite well. It might do 60, it might do 80.
0:11:28 > 0:11:35- Yeah?- It could! There's every chance of a profit. If there's a loss, it won't be great.
0:11:35 > 0:11:40It's a going to be a huge? We're not going to bomb out. We can't. Or can we?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Well, yeah. We hope not.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44You never know.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48And with 30 minutes already gone, it's time to make that last item count.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52I think we should try and find something maybe in silver or pottery.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- We've got quite a few quid to play with, now.- We have?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57- We could be brave, can't we?- Yes.
0:11:57 > 0:12:02And if it's a fair, good quality piece, hopefully, like you've said,
0:12:02 > 0:12:07- it shouldn't bomb out, as such, but you never know.- Never quote me.- No.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13It's not so often that we go bargain-hunting in the thick snow.
0:12:13 > 0:12:18But it shouldn't deter you, because there are intriguing things to find in these fairs.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21For example, this object.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25What we've got is a sheet of wood, probably beech wood,
0:12:25 > 0:12:29that has been entirely decorated with red hot needles.
0:12:29 > 0:12:37Hot needles have been applied to the wood, which has scorched the surface
0:12:37 > 0:12:40and what you're left with is this image.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42This stuff is called pyrography.
0:12:42 > 0:12:47And it was a popular decorative arts form around about 1900,
0:12:47 > 0:12:52taught in evening classes and art schools, and all sorts of people
0:12:52 > 0:12:57lavished incredible amounts of care and attention to pieces like this.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01Just look at the detail that has been achieved here.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05Can you imagine starting off with a blank piece of wood
0:13:05 > 0:13:10and simply by heating up these needles, creating a whole image.
0:13:10 > 0:13:15What I love about this object is if I turn it around, you can see the back panel
0:13:15 > 0:13:20and it's got some paper labels. The top one says, "Mrs W Greenall."
0:13:20 > 0:13:23She's the person who probably created this picture
0:13:23 > 0:13:30and she was so proud of it, she had her label stuck on the back, and it's been signed with a little rebus here.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34Now, pyrography isn't a popular collectible today.
0:13:34 > 0:13:41I know of no pyrographic collectors, and that's probably why this thing could be bought today, here,
0:13:41 > 0:13:46in the snow, for £80, which is incredibly cheap.
0:13:46 > 0:13:51In fact, I think Mrs Greenall would turn in her grave.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54So far, the Blues have found things easy.
0:13:54 > 0:13:59They've spent £100 leaving them £200 for their final item.
0:13:59 > 0:14:05For the Reds, however, Simon has been calling all the shots and they've got £220 left, and with 20 minutes to go,
0:14:05 > 0:14:11there's time for Phil to blow his own trumpets and bag that last piece.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17- Can we get a bit of silver? - Yes, let's get some.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Come on, how often do we have £200?!
0:14:21 > 0:14:25To spend. Not very often.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27These two are loving this, but they
0:14:27 > 0:14:31must remember, it's a competition, so buy something soon, ladies.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35- Shall we give the other hall a try? - Yes, let's give it a go.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40As the Blues go turbocharged for their last item,
0:14:40 > 0:14:44has Phil found what he's been looking for?
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Needs a clean but it's solid silver There's a bit of weight in that.
0:14:47 > 0:14:53- Solid silver?- Solid silver, made and stamped in London by Barraclough And Sons in Leeds.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57That may be used in the house to collect someone's business card.
0:14:57 > 0:15:02You come to the door, you put your business card in there, take it to the master, that kind of thing.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Um... What is the absolute death on that?
0:15:05 > 0:15:07- 90. It could be 90.- That's cheap.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Not the best.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Shall we go and find your brother?
0:15:11 > 0:15:13He is here now.
0:15:13 > 0:15:17- Have a look at this. - And as if by magic, he appears.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Exactly, tell me what you think about that?
0:15:21 > 0:15:25- Solid silver.- Good weight, bit scratched and scuffed.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Well, that's silver, it's soft but it can polish nicely.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31- It has a bit of oomph. - That you were looking for.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34And it's solid silver? Is your heart set on it yet?
0:15:34 > 0:15:38Because I think I have found the piece.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Right, well, show us.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43I do like that because it is a big lump,
0:15:43 > 0:15:50it is practical, it can be used for anything in the home, you know, dinner table, After Eight mints.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Food, he's trying to get you with food.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55- He is posh, isn't he?- I do like it.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59We're running out of time. Can we just leave that there for now?
0:15:59 > 0:16:01We might be back in a moment.
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Poor old Phil.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06He thought he had found something.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10It is a good job our sisters are not having as many disagreements.
0:16:12 > 0:16:17- Sorry, what is it? - It is a little brooch. - You have found us some jewellery!
0:16:17 > 0:16:23Yes, it is a little wishbone for good luck and then you have a little enamelled exotic bird on it,
0:16:23 > 0:16:28- which is beautifully enamelled. - I wonder what the bird represented or whether or not it was just...
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Well, birds are good luck if they're pretty enough, I suppose.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35And it is Birmingham, 1919. Do you like it?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37It is lovely, it really is.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41You think of the happiness that maybe it brought somebody.
0:16:41 > 0:16:42- Absolutely.- Yes.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46It is still on the time period that we like.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48Yes, you like the Art Deco.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50- We do. - This is ticking all the right boxes.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- Except one.- The price.- £69.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57- Well, yes.- I think we could try and get down a little bit.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00We have to try and make a profit at auction.
0:17:00 > 0:17:05- We do.- That would be lovely gift for somebody because of the good-luck symbol attached to it.
0:17:05 > 0:17:11I do. You could buy a modern brooch off the shelf but this is quite unusual and it has the age to it.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Brooches are becoming quite popular at the moment as well.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18You have sold it to me. Shall I have a word with the dealer?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- I think it is your turn to do it. - Yes. Yes. Yes.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24I'll see you in a minute.
0:17:24 > 0:17:31Five minutes to go and the Blues are nearly over the line. But the Reds are making us sweat.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- Come over here and look at this. - Right.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37Feel the weight.
0:17:37 > 0:17:43- It's very light.- I must admit compared with the salver, and...
0:17:43 > 0:17:47- Weight...- The other thing might be worth a lot for scrap value.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49It is solid silver.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51The marks are good.
0:17:51 > 0:17:52Do you want to try it?
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Let's go and try it.
0:17:54 > 0:18:00Surely Philip has done enough to sell them his silver plate by now?
0:18:00 > 0:18:05Girls, this nice gentleman has met me halfway.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06I wanted it for 50, he offered 60.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08He suggested 55.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11Oh, what is the original price again?
0:18:11 > 0:18:14- 69.- 69.- So £14 off.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18What do you think, Mark? What do you think? Auction day...
0:18:18 > 0:18:22It is nice quality and it is an unusual item. I cannot guarantee it
0:18:22 > 0:18:26would make a profit but it might fly if the two people are there.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29We are depending on somebody really loving it.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33- We love it, don't we?- Yes. - It is a good luck brooch so it might bring us luck on the day.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- Let us hope so.- Shall we go for it?
0:18:36 > 0:18:38- Yes.- Well done, we will take it.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39Thank you very much.
0:18:39 > 0:18:44Job's done, Blues. Come on, Phil, put your foot down and seal this deal.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46I like it. It is what I had been after.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50- It is silver, it is marked, I am happy.- Well, make a decision.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53- I am happy with it.- Are you pulling the big brother card now?
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- I am pulling the big brother card here.- The big little brother?
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Yes, my little bigger brother, yeah.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01- Our friend here has given us his final price.- 85, was it?
0:19:01 > 0:19:03£90. I am happy.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07- I'm afraid it is. He'll stand there all day.- You are not going to budge on that, are you?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09No, I can't, that is the thing.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12I am happy with that. You're being fair.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Go on. If we can give it a little clean...
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Thank God for that.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18Well done, you two.
0:19:18 > 0:19:23At last, that's the Reds finished, which means both teams are done but
0:19:23 > 0:19:26what will happen to the money that they haven't spent?
0:19:26 > 0:19:29David and Mark still have to pick up a mystery bonus buy.
0:19:29 > 0:19:33This surprise piece will be revealed to our teams later in the auction
0:19:33 > 0:19:37and they will be faced with a tricky decision.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39The teams have the chance to gamble.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43If they think the bonus buy will make a profit, they let me know and it is in the auction.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47The gamble is, if it makes a loss, it is lose, lose, lose.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50If it makes a profit, it is win, win, win.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54Here is a reminder of what the Reds bought.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57- I think we have done very well. - I wouldn't employ us, would you?
0:19:57 > 0:19:59I certainly would.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02- We make a good team. Yeah. - You have convinced us!
0:20:02 > 0:20:07The Reds' first buy was the '60s or '70s orange Poole vase.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Next in was the bronze dog.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12David loved it and the guys agreed.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16Slight disagreement over Phil's silver,
0:20:16 > 0:20:18but in the end, they did bag the salver.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- It is a bit plain.- No way!- It is!
0:20:21 > 0:20:25So, Simon, a bit of pressure there from the brother.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Yes, a little pressure towards the end.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31- Yes, well you were misbehaving. He is determined, aren't you Phil? - Certainly.
0:20:31 > 0:20:36Certainly are. You spent £170. £130 of leftover lolly, please.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Thank you very much. There you go, 130. Thank you very much.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Do you have any sympathy for me, spending time with these two?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45None. I should think it was great fun.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49They could not agree on anything, but we eventually got them sorted.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Got any ideas as to what you're going to buy?
0:20:52 > 0:20:56I do. Two ex-military men. We were looking ,boys, for something with military leanings.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01I think I have found it. I have seen it but I do not know if it is still there, so...
0:21:01 > 0:21:02You better march off. Good luck.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06Let us remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09There was no messing about for these girls.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14They found their first buy, a glass bowl, in under 30 seconds.
0:21:15 > 0:21:21- I think the best item will be the decanter set because it is unusual. - It is so different.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25It certainly has got a look but will it be a glass act at the auction?
0:21:25 > 0:21:29Finally, they got their piece of jewellery they were after
0:21:29 > 0:21:34in the silver and enamel bird brooch, dated 1919.
0:21:34 > 0:21:39Well, girls, you bought things so quickly it is as if you have been here before.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- You have not been here before, have you?- No.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Was it good fun, that shopping?
0:21:43 > 0:21:45- It was. Very exciting.- Good.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46You spent £155.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50£145 of leftover lolly, Mark.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- Gosh, that's a lot.- That is quite a lot quite of responsibility.- I know.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57I do not normally get to handle so much money.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00No, that is two or three series worth of cash.
0:22:00 > 0:22:06They were great, though, and they were very decisive so I have got to be decisive.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Did they agree on everything in the shopping?
0:22:09 > 0:22:14- Absolutely.- Well, it's just amazing. They must be welded from the hip. - More like these, please.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17What we want is a big profit from you on this bonus buy.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19I'll give it my best shot.
0:22:19 > 0:22:24Good man. Thank you very much. Now, for me, I am heading off somewhere really lovely.
0:22:35 > 0:22:41Tucked away in its 1,000 acre Lincolnshire Park, Belton House
0:22:41 > 0:22:49was built in 1685 and it passed down through succeeding generations of the Brownlow and Cust families,
0:22:49 > 0:22:56each of whom have left their mark on the organisation and decor in the house.
0:22:57 > 0:23:03In the last 30 years of the 19th century, Adelbert,
0:23:03 > 0:23:07the third Earl Brownlow and his American wife, Adelaide,
0:23:07 > 0:23:13spent a great deal of time and money restoring and maintaining the original character of the house.
0:23:13 > 0:23:18Indeed, this great room once upon a time was the great dining room.
0:23:18 > 0:23:24Then in the 1780s it was converted into the great drawing room and then Adelbert
0:23:24 > 0:23:29came along and converted it into the great library.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33He made a very tasteful job of kitting it out.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37For example, this folio cabinet.
0:23:37 > 0:23:42It was made about 1840, nice inset leather top.
0:23:42 > 0:23:47Fiddle rail to hold a really big folio volume,
0:23:47 > 0:23:51which you open on the top and to get it to the right angle of dangle,
0:23:51 > 0:23:54so it was comfortable to read,
0:23:54 > 0:23:59it is raised on ratchets like that so you can get it at precisely
0:23:59 > 0:24:06the right position to be able to fold those incredibly heavy pages and basically control the volume.
0:24:06 > 0:24:12Now, if you did not have large sheets of paper bound in a volume to put on a folio cabinet,
0:24:12 > 0:24:15you would have a folio stand like this,
0:24:15 > 0:24:20which was made for individual sheets, maps and prints and so forth.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22To squash them up and get them in the right position,
0:24:22 > 0:24:24they are on this ratchet base
0:24:24 > 0:24:27which operates like that.
0:24:27 > 0:24:32No well-dressed library would be without a pair of these jokers.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Library globes.
0:24:34 > 0:24:40One celestial, containing a map of the stars, the other, terrestrial,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43describing the countries of the world.
0:24:43 > 0:24:47What is interesting about these globes is that it was possible
0:24:47 > 0:24:51to update the globes by sending them back to the maker
0:24:51 > 0:24:56so that other discoveries would be added and he would simply paste on another surface.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59This globe is by a maker called Bardin
0:24:59 > 0:25:02and it is dated 1799.
0:25:02 > 0:25:08It is dedicated, on the trade mark, to Sir Joseph Banks
0:25:08 > 0:25:10who, of course, travelled the globe
0:25:10 > 0:25:16with Captain Cook and discovered and mapped the east coast of Australia.
0:25:16 > 0:25:22By 1799, if we look at the southern coast of Australia on this globe,
0:25:22 > 0:25:27it is completely blank.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29The big question today is, of course,
0:25:29 > 0:25:32are our teams going to draw a blank over at the auction?
0:25:42 > 0:25:47Golding Young is the place for us in Grantham with our auctioneer, Colin Young.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Colin, grand to see you. - Nice to see you at our place again.
0:25:50 > 0:25:54Good to be here. This orange colour scheme on this pot is familiar?
0:25:54 > 0:26:00Yes, there is so much of it out there. A collector's item, it is.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02A bit of Poole. That is what they want.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05At least, that is what Simon and Phil wanted.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Have you any buyers in Grantham who'll go with this?
0:26:07 > 0:26:13Absolutely, there are plenty of buyers out there, we sell a lot of it. £10-£30.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15£40, they paid.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18It is not very exciting, as far as delphis goes.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21- What about this little dog? - It is quite good fun, that.
0:26:21 > 0:26:27It is Austro-German, bronze, about 1900 and
0:26:27 > 0:26:31we'd put an estimate of £20 to £40, it is a fun item.
0:26:31 > 0:26:36£40, they paid. A bit shy on that. Now, what about the salver?
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Yes, good salver.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42Edwardian example, Georgian styling.
0:26:42 > 0:26:49- I quite like these ones with no feet. I think, technically, a card dropper.- Yes, it is.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54In the Edwardian hallway, visiting cards and all that nonsense.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Not having a glass of sherry on it, which would be on feet.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59How much for that joker?
0:26:59 > 0:27:02We would put an estimate of 60-90 on it.
0:27:02 > 0:27:08OK, £90 paid. So, uniquely, according to estimates, this team are slightly shy in every respect.
0:27:08 > 0:27:15- Yes.- In which case, they are going to need that bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:27:15 > 0:27:21OK, boys, you spent £170, you gave David £130. Did he spend the lot?
0:27:21 > 0:27:25I did not spend the lot but I bought something very manly.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28Very nice.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30LAUGHTER
0:27:30 > 0:27:31Not very impressive, obviously.
0:27:31 > 0:27:36Look at the inscription, I thought that might appeal to you boys.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Our Simon is going to love that.
0:27:38 > 0:27:44Let us have a look! Oh! The Glasgow Highlanders, rapid firing. Dated 1910.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47There you go, a bit of military stuff, you like a bit of military ware.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52- Is this silver?- It is solid silver. Stamped, hallmarked and feel the weight of it.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54It is a bit chipped and battered, isn't it?
0:27:54 > 0:27:59- Well, it is 100 years old. - It is a quaich.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03- It's a whatty?- It's a quaich. It is a ceremonial Scottish drinking cup.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06There you go. He's added a bit more value, hasn't he, Tim?
0:28:06 > 0:28:10You certainly have. It is nice because it is Britannia standard.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13So it is higher grade silver than the ordinary.
0:28:13 > 0:28:17And it was hallmarked in Glasgow, so a bit of Scottish silver.
0:28:17 > 0:28:21A Scottish drinking vessel, just the thing they would have had in the officer's mess.
0:28:21 > 0:28:27You'd had your tot of whisky in this out of a quaich and shoved it down the cake hole. Brilliant.
0:28:27 > 0:28:30After a good shooting match. What more do you want to do, really?
0:28:30 > 0:28:33- Fantastic! - Please tell me you paid £10 for it.
0:28:33 > 0:28:39- I didn't. I paid double that.- £20? - An absolute bargain. - £20 is all you paid?
0:28:39 > 0:28:40I'm impressed now.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43It is unbelievable, isn't it? Anyway, you don't pick it now.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45You might pick it later.
0:28:45 > 0:28:50Right now, for the viewers at home, let's find out whether the auctioneer thinks it is a good pick.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53A wee dram for you, Mr Young.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55I'll take it.
0:28:55 > 0:29:00- Wow.- I mean, it's a kind of quaich shape, isn't it?
0:29:00 > 0:29:02It is. That's the shape and form of it.
0:29:02 > 0:29:07Struck with a sixpence to the base and full inscription on it.
0:29:07 > 0:29:09For rapid firing.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12It's going to need a bit of rapid selling, I think.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14It is. Quite thick gauge.
0:29:14 > 0:29:18Not a bad little... I never know whether it is quaich or quake.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20- Er, quake.- Is it?
0:29:20 > 0:29:24Lovely. Good. Well, you can have a wee dram out of that.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27We could be toasting you if you do well on this. What is your estimate?
0:29:27 > 0:29:30We'd put an estimate of £25 to £40 on it.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33David will be pleased, because he only paid £20 and
0:29:33 > 0:29:38somehow, I think that's got interest on two or three counts, the military count, people like
0:29:38 > 0:29:42a bit of Scottish-looking silver, so I think David has done well with that
0:29:42 > 0:29:44That's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.
0:29:44 > 0:29:49Their first item is the amethyst bowl, which is certainly on the big side, isn't it?
0:29:49 > 0:29:54It is. A sizable bowl. You'd get plenty of fruit in that one.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56Date-wise, a very difficult thing to date.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Trying to be 1935, isn't it?
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Yes. That's it.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03It could be a fraction later than that.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06But even if it is later it's still big and decorative
0:30:06 > 0:30:09and at estimates of £30 to £50, it's not going to matter too much.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12£45 they paid. That's not too bad.
0:30:12 > 0:30:16The Art-Deco style liqueur set.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18The best thing about this is the colour, in my view.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21The colour isn't the thing that hits me, it's the shape.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23- Oh, you like this bent-banana look? - I do.
0:30:23 > 0:30:30It's a nice sort of scalene-pentagon design and I certainly haven't seen anything quite moulded in that way.
0:30:30 > 0:30:35No, the big question is how old is it because it's '30s style...
0:30:35 > 0:30:38But probably not.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42It's the type of thing you could easily see being retailed
0:30:42 > 0:30:46at a high quality outlet throughout the '60s and '70s.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50I suppose on that basis it would have cost a fortune new.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52What are we going to get for it now?
0:30:52 > 0:30:54An estimate of £30 to £50.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56£55 they paid.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58They are a bit light on that.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02The little brooch. A cute little brooch, isn't it?
0:31:02 > 0:31:04- Very much so.- Wishbone and birdie.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07A good little combination.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11Hopefully it will fly away and we're gonna be wishing for a profit.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13I know. It's hallmarked.
0:31:13 > 0:31:17- It dates from when? - 1919. George V piece.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20So it's a period piece.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23- What's your estimate? - We think £20 to £30.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Lord, £55 they paid.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27It is going to have to soar at that.
0:31:27 > 0:31:31- It is. It seems heavy going at that sort of money.- Certainly does.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33They will need their bonus buy.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Let's have a look at it.
0:31:35 > 0:31:36Girls, you're all right?
0:31:36 > 0:31:39- We are fine, thank you. - We're ready for the bonus buy.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44You spent £155, you gave £145 to Mark, what did he spend it on?
0:31:44 > 0:31:47This.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50I think this is really charming. It's an inkwell.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55I think it has a regimental, Boer-War influence here.
0:31:55 > 0:32:00You've got these African spears, the little cauldron which is what they would have used to cook on.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03It has a lovely maker's name inside.
0:32:03 > 0:32:09And this rather nice little Wedgwood Jasper plaque on the bottom and this gilt bronze.
0:32:09 > 0:32:15I think it's absolutely wonderful. I have to tell you, girls, I spent the full £145 on it.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17Oh, my goodness.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20I thought, "Let's go for it."
0:32:20 > 0:32:24The thing is with spending that much money is how much profit could we make on it?
0:32:24 > 0:32:28I am not writing out a cheque, let's put it that way.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32I suppose with being teachers the link with the ink well, I suppose.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35This is what I was thinking.
0:32:35 > 0:32:38Mark, you are a rotter, really.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40You weren't thinking teachers at all.
0:32:42 > 0:32:47Can I just have a little handle. It's got this retailer's mark.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Yes, which is a good sign.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51It's always nice to have a name on something. It adds to it.
0:32:51 > 0:32:55- Do we recognise the name at all? - They look upmarket.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58I think it's rather fun.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02- Did you give us a date for it? - I think we are looking at the late 19th century.
0:33:02 > 0:33:041890s, 1900, that sort of period.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06- Lovely.- So, you fancy it, do you?
0:33:06 > 0:33:10We will see. We'd best see how negative we are.
0:33:10 > 0:33:15We must be positive. We are going to positive it will be positive.
0:33:15 > 0:33:19If it does make a profit you won't give me 100 lines, will you?
0:33:19 > 0:33:20Or lashes.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23Now you're talking.
0:33:23 > 0:33:28On that happy note, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Mark's little pot.
0:33:28 > 0:33:32Here we go, Colin, off to Africa.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34Does that light your fire?
0:33:34 > 0:33:37It would do if it had a fire at the bottom of it.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40- It's great, isn't it?- I'm not quite sure of the origins.
0:33:40 > 0:33:47I have done a little bit of study on Zulu spears and they look nothing like that.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49It could date from the Zulu wars though, couldn't it?
0:33:49 > 0:33:51It could well be from that period.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53That is where the influence is.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57How passionate are the inkwell collectors going to be
0:33:57 > 0:34:02for this sort of object because if you collect inkwells it's a strange one.
0:34:02 > 0:34:06It is. We aren't going to be short of people putting their arm up.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08It's going to be where will they stop.
0:34:08 > 0:34:13Quite. Mark Stacey paid £145 for it.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14He stuck his neck out here.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18He could finish up being boiled in the pot himself.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21Where is your estimate coming from?
0:34:21 > 0:34:23Our estimate is a long way from that.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26We've put an estimate on of £60 to £80. That sort of level.
0:34:26 > 0:34:31But I would not be surprised if that made well over £100.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33That's what it needs. We are in your hands.
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- You're taking the auction. - I am indeed.- Jolly good.
0:34:41 > 0:34:4432, 35...
0:34:44 > 0:34:47160, 160... 170 anywhere?
0:34:47 > 0:34:50How is it between the brothers today?
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Are we all united and strong?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54I think we are divided on one item.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Which one's that?- The silver salver.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00It's not what he's been calling it in the greenroom.
0:35:00 > 0:35:01What's the problem with that?
0:35:01 > 0:35:03I quite like it and Simon doesn't.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- Well, you picked it. - I still like it.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08I think it's a perfectly-nice thing.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11The first lot up is the Poole cowpat vase. Here it comes.
0:35:11 > 0:35:17Lot number 220, then, is a Poole Delphis squat vase.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19We have a whole series of bids on this.
0:35:19 > 0:35:23And for that reason, we have to start the bidding at £12.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26- What a build up!- 15, bid. At 15.
0:35:26 > 0:35:2818 now shortly. 18 bid.
0:35:28 > 0:35:3518, 20. 22, 25, 28, 30. 32. 35, 38.
0:35:35 > 0:35:40No, at 35. They all peter out and we finish at 35.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44£35, well, that is a lot better than predicted. Well done, Simon.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47You are only minus £5 on that. Now for your dog.
0:35:47 > 0:35:53Lot 221 is a miniature Austro-German brown patinated figure of a dog.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Who is going to start me at £50?
0:35:55 > 0:35:5730 to go then, £30, anyone? 30?
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Come on.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01- 10.- Oh, come on.
0:36:01 > 0:36:0520. This is what I like to hear. 20, straight in on the net.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08At 20, bid. Two, now are you going to join in, in the room? You are?
0:36:08 > 0:36:10- 22. Multiple bids.- Here we go.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13- He wants it.- And 5, may I say?
0:36:13 > 0:36:1525, no?
0:36:15 > 0:36:2122. We are on the internet at 22. 25 in the room. 28 bid, 30, 32, 35.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23- Keep going.- 32 bid.- Come on.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25You'll double your money.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27Third row has it. At 32.
0:36:27 > 0:36:30All done at £32.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35Ouch. £32, you're minus £8 on this. Not so good, so far.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37No drinks yet, Simon.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39Don't you get cocky because here comes your tray.
0:36:39 > 0:36:44222 is an Edwardian silver card tray with stepped and inverted rim.
0:36:44 > 0:36:48Who is going to start me at £50 for it? £30 bid. At 35.
0:36:48 > 0:36:5340, at 40, bid 5. 45, 50, 5, 65, 70. At 70 bid.
0:36:53 > 0:36:55Come on, come on.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58- I'll take 2 as a last call. - I told you it was rubbish.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00All done and selling at £70.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02See, I told you it was rubbish.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06Minus £20 on that.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09You are also minus £13.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Overall, you are minus £33.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15What are you going to do about the bonus buy because minus 33 could be a winning score.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- I love it, I want to see this fly. - You want to see this fly.
0:37:18 > 0:37:21I think you've done us proud. It is a lovely piece.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23Without a shadow of a doubt.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25So you're going to go with the bonus buy.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28I have to say, I do agree with you, now the decision is made.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30I think it is a belter. Here it comes.
0:37:30 > 0:37:35Lot number 226 is an Edwardian, Scottish silver trophy bowl
0:37:35 > 0:37:37in the form of a quaich. At 22,
0:37:37 > 0:37:39at 22.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41Come on!
0:37:41 > 0:37:43I'm going to bid in a minute.
0:37:43 > 0:37:47At the back of the room. Is there a 4 anywhere else?
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Going at £22.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51£22?!
0:37:53 > 0:37:56Slightly more than wiping your face.
0:37:56 > 0:37:59- I'm gobsmacked. - I'm pretty smacked, I have to say.
0:37:59 > 0:38:04Over all, you are minus £31 which is not so bad.
0:38:04 > 0:38:05Call yourself an expert!
0:38:15 > 0:38:18OK, girls. You looking forward to this confidently?
0:38:20 > 0:38:22- Very nervous but looking forward to it.- You're nervous?
0:38:22 > 0:38:27You're going to have to put your best foot forward because here comes your bowl.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30Lot 245 is an amethyst-glass pedestal bowl
0:38:30 > 0:38:32of inverted-baluster form.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34£20 bid, at 20 bid, 2.
0:38:34 > 0:38:365, do I see now?
0:38:36 > 0:38:38Anywhere else? 25 bid.
0:38:38 > 0:38:4028 bid, 30, no.
0:38:40 > 0:38:45At 28 bid. 30 now shortly. At £28, bid, any more, now?
0:38:45 > 0:38:50Surely we are going to hit bottom estimate, we are now. 30. At 32, 35.
0:38:50 > 0:38:5338, now.
0:38:53 > 0:38:5740. No. Back of the room, going at £38.
0:38:57 > 0:39:01Bad luck, girls. Minus 38...
0:39:01 > 0:39:05- It's only minus £7. Here comes the next lot.- Look.
0:39:05 > 0:39:11Lot 246, Art-Deco lemon-glass liqueur set. 20 from us. £20 bid.
0:39:11 > 0:39:16I'll take 5. 25 bid, 30, 35, 40.
0:39:16 > 0:39:1845, 50 and 5, 55.
0:39:18 > 0:39:19Go on, have a another one?
0:39:19 > 0:39:22- 55!- Come on!
0:39:22 > 0:39:242 if it's going to help anyone. At 50 bid.
0:39:24 > 0:39:2652, front row, 55. No.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29No. 52. Any more bids?
0:39:29 > 0:39:33It's going. At 52, last call.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36£52, you are only £3 off.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38You are minus 10 over all.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40We've got the brooch next!
0:39:40 > 0:39:45Lot 247 is a George V silver-crescent brooch, £30 this.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49£30 anyone? 20, then, start me at bottom estimate for it.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51- 20?- Please!- £10, bid.
0:39:51 > 0:39:5510, 12 bid, 15 do I see now? At 15,
0:39:55 > 0:39:5818, do I see it? 15, 18, 20, do I see it? Anywhere else do I see?
0:39:58 > 0:40:03I am not getting a good feeling here.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05- It is so lovely.- You are minus 45.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08- This is not looking so good, is it? - No.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10What are you going to do about the inkwell?
0:40:10 > 0:40:11Go for it!
0:40:11 > 0:40:16- You are going to go for it? - Not, no, no, no. No, no, no, no.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18You're not going for it? You're not?
0:40:18 > 0:40:20We are going to say no. Don't change our mind again.
0:40:20 > 0:40:24You're not going with it because you just changed your mind.
0:40:24 > 0:40:27- We are not going with it. - Here it comes, anyway.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30Lot 251, a late 19th-century gilt-metal inkwell
0:40:30 > 0:40:33by Phillipson and Golder of Chester.
0:40:33 > 0:40:37Multiple bids on the net. We are up to 40. 42.
0:40:37 > 0:40:4045, now. This is a cracking lot. 45.
0:40:40 > 0:40:45- It is a cracking lot.- 48, 50, 55 in the room, 60 now, may I say?
0:40:45 > 0:40:5060 bid. 65. 70, 75.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53- We are halfway now. - He's going on again! Go on!
0:40:53 > 0:40:5780. 85 in the room. 90.
0:40:57 > 0:41:0390 bid. 95. £100 now. 105. 110.
0:41:03 > 0:41:09Any more then, 110 it is a net bid and we are selling at £110.
0:41:09 > 0:41:11- Well, how exciting was that? - Just a bit.
0:41:11 > 0:41:18It is minus £35, so you did exactly right in not taking that bonus buy.
0:41:18 > 0:41:22But isn't it fascinating how it got pushed up? It got quite close.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25Listen, girls. You are minus £45, that is your final score.
0:41:25 > 0:41:29- It could be a winning score, don't tell anything to those Reds.- No.
0:41:29 > 0:41:31- No mentions.- Nothing.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34We will reveal all in a moment.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45I do love it when there is nothing between the two teams.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47Oh, no!
0:41:47 > 0:41:49It is very, very close.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51Of course, it is in the losses area.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53They are all in the red.
0:41:53 > 0:41:58You're not going home with any money but the closeness between your is ridiculous, really.
0:41:58 > 0:42:03And the team which has got the largest scale of losses is the Blues.
0:42:03 > 0:42:04Yes!
0:42:07 > 0:42:10- Well done.- Which is bad luck, isn't it because you are minus £45.
0:42:10 > 0:42:16I'm not going to dwell on all these minus signs through the whole of the scorecard.
0:42:16 > 0:42:21- Just suffice to say it was not really your luckiest day, was it?- No.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25You have done very well and you have been a great team. Thank you.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27That is so super. Now for the brothers.
0:42:27 > 0:42:30Eee, look at our Simon's face.
0:42:30 > 0:42:35- He is that happy, our Simon, aren't you, son?- Well, what can I say?
0:42:35 > 0:42:38What can you say? You are minus £31, that is what you can say.
0:42:38 > 0:42:42So, there you go, minus £31.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46- You made one small profit on the bonus buy.- Well done.
0:42:46 > 0:42:48The Scottish presentation jug.
0:42:48 > 0:42:52It was only a couple of quid, I felt it should have been more than that.
0:42:52 > 0:42:53You had a good time, though?
0:42:53 > 0:42:56You had a great time? Have you had a good time, girls?
0:42:56 > 0:42:58What are you giggling about?
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- ALL:- Yes!- Ho-ho-hoo!
