0:00:02 > 0:00:04MUSIC: Theme From Star Wars

0:00:13 > 0:00:15Well, really, chaps.

0:00:15 > 0:00:18There is a rather more civilised way of sorting this out.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21Let's try Bargain Hunting.

0:00:46 > 0:00:51Welcome from Ardingly Antiques Fair at the South of England Showground.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54There's plenty to look forward to on today's programme.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57It's a race against the clock for the Blues...

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Wait for me.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03..while the Reds use their charms to bring the prices down.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06I feel I must take them away from you!

0:01:06 > 0:01:11But how will their items perform over at the auction?

0:01:11 > 0:01:14Bargain Hunt is pretty straight-laced.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17It's the Reds versus the Blues -

0:01:17 > 0:01:20a bit like good versus evil.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22But it's not entirely purgatory,

0:01:22 > 0:01:27because the teams will be helped by their saintly expert,

0:01:27 > 0:01:33whose job it is to guide them towards three items for £300

0:01:33 > 0:01:36and the team that maketh the most profit

0:01:36 > 0:01:40will not necessarily benefit in heaven.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50Today we've got the gorgeous girls versus the lovable lads.

0:01:50 > 0:01:55- For the Reds, we've got Becky and Georgina, sisters.- Hiya.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59- Yes. Hello.- And Bramwell and Stuart, best mates, for the Blues.- Indeed.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02"Indeed," he says. Good. Now, Becky, you're a dancer.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05What are the highlights of your career so far?

0:02:05 > 0:02:09I'd say, probably, I've danced with the English Youth Ballet

0:02:09 > 0:02:11when I was younger, so that was a good experience.

0:02:11 > 0:02:16And probably getting my teaching qualifications so I'm able to teach dance to children.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19- Tap?- Yep. Ballet. Modern. - The whole thing.

0:02:19 > 0:02:23- Yep.- And when you're not teaching others, what do you get up to?

0:02:23 > 0:02:26I've just finished a part-time acting course, which was really good.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29- We got to perform a play in central London.- Yes.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- So that was really good. - Will we have any dramatics from you today on Bargain Hunt?

0:02:33 > 0:02:38- I don't think so.- Oh, I don't know. That would be nice.

0:02:38 > 0:02:39And are you interested in antiques?

0:02:39 > 0:02:41Oh, yeah. We both love antiques, don't we?

0:02:41 > 0:02:45- Always loved them. - We're hopefully looking for some nice silver or something.

0:02:45 > 0:02:47- A nice piece of jewellery or something.- Gosh.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49They've got their eye in already.

0:02:49 > 0:02:51How brilliant. Georgina, what do you do, darling?

0:02:51 > 0:02:57I'm still at college, studying childcare, so love children, love working with them.

0:02:57 > 0:03:00So about to finish that and hopefully be a nanny when I'm older.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03- You've got a bit of a travel bug too, haven't you? - I have. I love travelling.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06I love finding new places, so going to Australia this year.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Yeah.- Saving up.- Trying to save. - You're going with your sister.

0:03:09 > 0:03:10- Yeah.- Oh, it's a duo.

0:03:10 > 0:03:15You really are a tight team, aren't you? I think these boys had better watch out.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- Now, Bramwell.- Hi.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20- Are you a collector of anything in particular, Bramwell?- Yeah.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23I'm a great big fan of Star Wars. It's my love.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27I've loved it all my life. I used to collect when I was younger.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31And unfortunately, a few years back, I sold it all off

0:03:31 > 0:03:33and now I'm trying to rekindle my youth

0:03:33 > 0:03:36and I buy Star Wars vintage figures,

0:03:36 > 0:03:40send them off, get them authenticated and try and make a bit of money.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43Oh, do you? So there's money to be made out of this.

0:03:43 > 0:03:47How does your wife cope with your growing collection, then, Bramwell?

0:03:47 > 0:03:51Well, she doesn't really get much choice because of the passion for Star Wars that I have.

0:03:51 > 0:03:56- We even had a Star Wars wedding. - So you went as Star Wars characters, did you?

0:03:56 > 0:04:01- Yeah. Myself, I went as Han Solo. - Oh, yeah.- Dashing as he is.- Yeah.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04- And my wife went as Princess Leia. - Naturally.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07And we had 50 guests at the registry office.

0:04:07 > 0:04:11- Everybody in full Star Wars regalia. - What, the whole lot?

0:04:11 > 0:04:15Yeah, including Nanny Joyce and Tamzin's granddad and grandma -

0:04:15 > 0:04:18they came, 91, 92, but still made a great effort.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22- Oh, how brilliant.- Fantastic. - So, Stuart, you're musical too?

0:04:22 > 0:04:25You could say that. Yeah.

0:04:25 > 0:04:30Myself and a few friends, we started a boy band back in the sort of late '90s,

0:04:30 > 0:04:32which started off as a bit of a joke

0:04:32 > 0:04:36but we ended up progressing and touring up and down the country.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38- What was your band called? - It was Four Sure.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39Four Sure. That's a very good name.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Not Sure now, really!

0:04:42 > 0:04:45You're not sure that it was Four Sure, but you did it anyway.

0:04:45 > 0:04:46We had a great time.

0:04:46 > 0:04:51We were out there touring for about two, three years, by the time we got out of the studio.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Really? I understand you also organise great parties.

0:04:54 > 0:05:00Last year, myself and Bramwell decided to celebrate our 32nd and 33rd birthdays

0:05:00 > 0:05:04with a big kids' party for us all, all of our friends, at one of my bars

0:05:04 > 0:05:10and it was our take on what we used to do as young children, shall we say,

0:05:10 > 0:05:12so we had musical chairs, musical statues, Simon says,

0:05:12 > 0:05:15dancing competitions and everything.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17We don't want you to be too grown-up today,

0:05:17 > 0:05:21cos the grown-up moment now is the £300 moment.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Ready, girls?- Yeah. - Look at these expectant faces here.

0:05:24 > 0:05:25£300 apiece. There you go, boys.

0:05:25 > 0:05:31You know the rules, your experts await and off you go. And very, very, very good luck.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35Well, I wonder which team the force will be with today.

0:05:37 > 0:05:41So, our teams have just one hour to find three items here at Ardingly.

0:05:41 > 0:05:46They'll then sell these on at auction in Chiswick with the aim of making a profit.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51This is a tall order so they're going to need some professional help. Cue the experts.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55The Reds are in the capable hands of Anita Manning.

0:05:55 > 0:06:00And keeping the Blues for you is Catherine Southon.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03- Come on. - Go.

0:06:03 > 0:06:04Let's go.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10Have you got any nice wee kind of quirky silver pieces here?

0:06:10 > 0:06:13We have. What about a christening mug?

0:06:13 > 0:06:14- 40 quid.- That's quite sweet.

0:06:14 > 0:06:18I mean, that's a possibility, girls, but not at 40 quid. Maybe 20 quid.

0:06:18 > 0:06:26The thing is, because of the price of scrap, which is £8 an ounce, you'll find...

0:06:27 > 0:06:29..that that's four ounces.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32The scrap is £32.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34OK. Could you do it for 20?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Listen, I can do it for 35 quid.

0:06:36 > 0:06:41And if you can't get a profit on it, I'll buy it back off you for 32.

0:06:41 > 0:06:48- He's got the patter, hasn't he? - Honestly, it does scrap at £32.

0:06:48 > 0:06:49OK.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52So you're paying £3 over scrap.

0:06:52 > 0:06:57But if it's getting sold at auction, we've got to think of buyers' premium and passing on stuff.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01See these girls - these girls are wonderful girls

0:07:01 > 0:07:05and they've come hundreds of miles to be the winners of Bargain Hunt.

0:07:05 > 0:07:06Their beauty overwhelms me.

0:07:06 > 0:07:11I feel I must take them away from you! Pleased to meet you.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Can you not do it for 25 quid?

0:07:13 > 0:07:17- After all that... - Oh, go on. Girls. Girls.

0:07:17 > 0:07:21- You have to now. Come on.- 25. 25.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24I tell you what... £30, you bought it and that's a good deal.

0:07:24 > 0:07:29- TIM:- That was impressive, girls. First stall, first item and all in ten minutes.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Look at that set.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36The price is 115.

0:07:36 > 0:07:37Got no chance of profit.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40No. We're not going to make a profit on that.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42- Where's the lady?- Beautiful quality.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43Gorgeous, that is.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47- I could do 90 for it.- 90.- Yeah.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51We really need to get it for about £50 or £60 cos it's our last buy.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55Cheeky, Bramwell! You've just started shopping.

0:07:55 > 0:07:59Cost you NEARLY that? So you need to make some money for some tea.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03- Not a lot.- How about we start at 50 and you knock me up to £60?

0:08:03 > 0:08:05You can have it for 75.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07- 75.- Yeah.

0:08:07 > 0:08:09That's my best price.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Let me get involved in this as well. Come on.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15I'm just... My thinking of this at auction...

0:08:15 > 0:08:17- It's £60.- Yeah.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I'm on the fence at that money, mate, to be honest.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23- It is a risk. I think it's a gamble. - I think it's a definite saver.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Thank you very much for your time. You've been wonderful.- Thank you.

0:08:26 > 0:08:31Not happy with the price, they move on, but they don't appear to have gone very far.

0:08:31 > 0:08:36A lovely big piece of tortoiseshell there with no cracks, no damage.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38That is lovely. Nice initials there.

0:08:38 > 0:08:44- What can it actually be used for? - Put your rings in there.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Jewellery box. Necklaces and stuff.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Yeah. I think, probably, it would have had a necklace in there once.

0:08:49 > 0:08:55- Hallmarked on the hinges. - Auction estimate? - Auction estimate 100-150.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58- 220 is too high. Let's keep looking. - OK.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59Keep looking.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03Mmm. There's plenty of looking going on, but not a lot of buying.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07Keep an eye on the clock, guys. Before you know it, you'll have run out of time.

0:09:09 > 0:09:15Now, we like to add a little twist to the programme, and it is called the bonus buy.

0:09:15 > 0:09:20What happens is, after the shopping, any leftover lolly, or cash,

0:09:20 > 0:09:24is given to the expert to go and find that secret bonus buy,

0:09:24 > 0:09:27which is revealed to the teams at the auction

0:09:27 > 0:09:29and they decide whether to take it or not.

0:09:29 > 0:09:35If the expert's done a decent job, it'll bring a handsome profit, which will be added to the team's total.

0:09:35 > 0:09:40If he's done a lousy job, well, it could just be a dead loss.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43Our teams only have half an hour left.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46Surely by now the Blues have bought their first item?

0:09:47 > 0:09:52- What is it about you guys and spoons?- Where are we going?

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Oh, I like this.

0:09:56 > 0:10:01Now, this...that's unusual. It's supposed to be one of those...curling stones.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03That's fantastic.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05- It's a little inkwell.- Yeah.

0:10:05 > 0:10:06I like that. What about this, Bram?

0:10:06 > 0:10:09- Yeah. I like it. It's unusual. - Isn't it?

0:10:09 > 0:10:13But I can see that at £30-£40 maybe doing quite well.

0:10:13 > 0:10:20He wants 35 for it. I mean, I wouldn't say it's fantastically made, but it's an unusual piece.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22- How many of those do you see?- Never.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- How many spoons do you see? - I'm tired of seeing spoons.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27With the spoons again! I love them.

0:10:27 > 0:10:33- I need you to try and get it down to around... I'm thinking £15, £20.- OK.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35- Can you do that?- I know a man that can make that happen.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39- I know a man who can.- Let's go. - Get in there, Brammy.

0:10:39 > 0:10:44With Bramwell left to negotiate, they get the price down to £18.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47Right, guys, pick up the pace.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51Take my word for it - 25 minutes to find two items isn't long.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53What is it? Just a pendant?

0:10:53 > 0:11:01It's a locket and you would have been able to put a photograph of your loved one in there.

0:11:01 > 0:11:06It can be worn. It's not over-extravagant.

0:11:06 > 0:11:11- It's quite simple but it has the lovely detail of seed pearls.- Yeah.

0:11:11 > 0:11:15- And I like seed pearls, but that's a personal thing.- Yeah.

0:11:15 > 0:11:16Can you tell me what you think?

0:11:19 > 0:11:21I mean, it's really pretty.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23You're not going to see something like this anywhere.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26I love the thought that you could put a picture in it.

0:11:26 > 0:11:27I think that's really different.

0:11:27 > 0:11:31- Yeah, cos you don't often see an open locket.- No. I've never seen one.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34- OK.- I love lockets and that is a different locket.- Yeah.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37Yeah. OK, girls. This brooch here, how much is that one?

0:11:37 > 0:11:41Actually, you can have that for a very good price cos I bought it very well.

0:11:41 > 0:11:42I bought that this morning.

0:11:42 > 0:11:47That can be 45. It's an oil painting.

0:11:47 > 0:11:48It's Victorian.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Yes. It's very unusual.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52What do you think about that one?

0:11:52 > 0:11:55This is very different as well. An oil painting inside a brooch.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58- I've never seen that before.- No.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02Obviously, the detail in that is amazing cos of how small it is.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06- This is a little Victorian brooch. - Lovely.

0:12:06 > 0:12:11So it's a little earlier than that one.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14So tell me, which one do you prefer?

0:12:14 > 0:12:17- I'm more attracted to this one. - I am, I think.- You both like that.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Yeah.- I do. It's growing on me.

0:12:21 > 0:12:26Growing or not, the girls said they wanted some jewellery and the pendant was theirs for £70.

0:12:26 > 0:12:32So our Red team is sitting pretty with two items bagged and £200 left.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35Now, I know what I'd spend MY money on.

0:12:35 > 0:12:40This is an object made by rather a famous Victorian maker.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44If we look on the back of this mount, you can see the initials SM.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48SM stands for Sampson Mordan.

0:12:48 > 0:12:55This object is a little bottle, a scent bottle, and it's got one or two unusual features.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57The first thing is its colour.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00This glass section is called cranberry glass

0:13:00 > 0:13:05and it's a particularly sought-after colour when it comes to scent bottles.

0:13:05 > 0:13:11If you look at the top, it's got a little button under the cover and if I press that...

0:13:11 > 0:13:13oh, you can see it springs up.

0:13:13 > 0:13:18There's no cork and you don't want to spill anything.

0:13:18 > 0:13:23The secret is in Sampson Mordan's patented sprung cap.

0:13:23 > 0:13:28See, it's got a sheet of glass inside and when I come to shut it,

0:13:28 > 0:13:33the top sheet of glass closes extremely snugly against the glass

0:13:33 > 0:13:35on the top of the scent bottle,

0:13:35 > 0:13:39making it completely waterproof, which is extremely clever.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43If you turn to the other end, there's a kind of boxlike structure.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46It's got a hinged top.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50If I hinge that open, it reveals a little pierced grill

0:13:50 > 0:13:54and the well underneath was designed to take a little sponge.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57That sponge would be soaked in vinegar

0:13:57 > 0:14:00or a strong-smelling salt solution

0:14:00 > 0:14:02and the whole thing is shut up like this.

0:14:02 > 0:14:08And the idea of this box on the end of the perfume bottle was...seriously bad smell about,

0:14:08 > 0:14:14open this up, stick the vinaigrette bit under your hooter and inhale

0:14:14 > 0:14:18and that way, you'd inhale the smell on the sponge

0:14:18 > 0:14:21rather than the terrible stink in the street.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Hmm! Good fun, hey?

0:14:24 > 0:14:26And I found it for £280.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28Is there a smell about?

0:14:28 > 0:14:30I don't think so.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35Let's see how those Blues are getting on.

0:14:35 > 0:14:40With 20 minutes to go and a whopping £282 still to spend,

0:14:40 > 0:14:44they should be buying rather than quibbling over a few pounds.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46I love the handle of this magnifier.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49That's all ivory. Isn't that lovely? Beautifully carved.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52- Let's just have a look. - And this is gilt?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Yeah. This is gilt metal.

0:14:54 > 0:14:59- And this...different colour.- I am a bit concerned. Yeah. Absolutely.

0:14:59 > 0:15:04I don't think that those two are the same. It looks slightly made up.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Very high price.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09- And your best?- What's it marked at?

0:15:09 > 0:15:13- 55.- 75! - That's a five, is it? 55.

0:15:13 > 0:15:14Got your hands full today!

0:15:14 > 0:15:17You've got to give it to him for trying!

0:15:17 > 0:15:21- Come on. Best price. Best price. - I'll give you a good deal on it.- OK.

0:15:21 > 0:15:2355. As you said, 55.

0:15:23 > 0:15:25That's the price we were going to start at.

0:15:25 > 0:15:29And you know I'm going to come up from about 35 to 40.

0:15:29 > 0:15:30It is a nice thing.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33- What auction price? - I quite like that.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35- I think that's quite nice quality. - Yeah.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38- But...- We need to get the price down so we can sell at auction.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40I like the sort of flowering head around.

0:15:40 > 0:15:43He's not interested in the item. He doesn't care about anything.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45All he wants to do is make a profit.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47That might be the name of the game,

0:15:47 > 0:15:52but Bramwell seems hell-bent on getting the biggest reductions possible.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56With 15 minutes left on the clock and only one item bought,

0:15:56 > 0:15:59the Blues have got some serious work to do.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04Over in the Red camp, it looks like their work is almost done.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06Well, it's all there. We have the teapot.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09- Yeah.- We have the sugar.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13We have the cream and we have two little cups and saucers on a tray.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15- Oh, it's lovely.- It's really pretty.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18- It is sweet.- I think it is. The colours are good, too.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- Could we have a wee closer look at it?- Yeah.

0:16:20 > 0:16:24Now, we have these little scenes on here.

0:16:24 > 0:16:29A young swain serenading his beautiful maiden.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32But when we look at the back stamp here,

0:16:32 > 0:16:36we see that it's made by Limoges, which was a good factory,

0:16:36 > 0:16:39so we've got a wee bit of quality there, girls.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41- That's good.- A wee bit of quality.

0:16:41 > 0:16:42Now, it's not early.

0:16:42 > 0:16:48It's probably from the 1950s, '60s and it is a traditional thing,

0:16:48 > 0:16:56- but that's not going to detract from its charm.- Yeah. Definitely.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Tell me, what drew your eye to it first?

0:16:59 > 0:17:01I wasn't sure what it was at first,

0:17:01 > 0:17:05but obviously it's a toy thing, which I think makes it really sweet.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08- Definitely.- Like you said, it's got charm, hasn't it?

0:17:08 > 0:17:11Are you in agreement with your sister?

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Could the two of you sit and have a wee cup of tea?

0:17:13 > 0:17:15- Shall we have a tea party?- Yeah.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18Whilst it's all smiles and jokes for the Reds,

0:17:18 > 0:17:21it's tension and stress for the Blues.

0:17:21 > 0:17:26With the pressure mounting, Bramwell makes a quick dash for the green enamel grooming set.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28- Good price.- Go. Go. Go.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31Come on. Let's go and see if we can find something.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39Let's go and have a wee cup of tea.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42- I think we deserve it. - Yes.- Definitely.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47Happy with the price at £15, the Reds are done and dusted.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50But for the Blues, things are going from bad to worse.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52- It's gone.- You're joking.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54And for more than we were going to pay.

0:17:54 > 0:17:55Oh, no. I can't believe it.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

0:17:58 > 0:17:59What did she say?

0:17:59 > 0:18:02She just said, "I sold it, and for more than you were offering."

0:18:02 > 0:18:04- Oh, no.- Quality item. I knew we should have got it.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06I can't believe it.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09It was quality but then... but, but, but...

0:18:09 > 0:18:12It wasn't a complete set, so come on, it's not the end of the day.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14- We've still got time.- OK.

0:18:14 > 0:18:17- Shall we go back in?- Yeah. - Look at the other things she had?

0:18:17 > 0:18:21As the Reds stroll back, it's panic stations for the Blues.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24Catherine has really got her work cut out.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27There's just ten minutes remaining and still two items to buy.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31It's kind of vintage. I like the motif on the front and it's hallmarked inside.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34- It looks in quite good quality. - Is that engraved in?

0:18:34 > 0:18:39No. We've got some interlaced initials, which has actually been put on to the top of the box.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42I've got the lady down to 160.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45She said she's paid more than that at auction for them.

0:18:45 > 0:18:47We're running out of time.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- We're running out of time. Do you like it?- I like it. I'm in.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52- How much did you say?- 160.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56160. I can see it in auction at sort of 100-150.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00- OK. We're in trouble, then. - I think it's got character.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03- Right. Come on. Let's decide. - I'm still soul-destroyed. Let's go.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05- Yeah?- 160.

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- OK.- Have another go at her, Brammy. See what you can get.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10A little bit more. A little bit more.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12Cor, that Bramwell isn't one to give up.

0:19:12 > 0:19:16He always has to get the price down just a little bit more, and he did.

0:19:16 > 0:19:20He made a massive saving of one whole pound!

0:19:20 > 0:19:25Do I sense some tension in the air here?

0:19:25 > 0:19:28- Oh, you do.- We've had a slight malfunction on our buying.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31So, how many pieces have you bought?

0:19:31 > 0:19:35- Two.- Two. Two?! - And we had one slip through our fingers.

0:19:35 > 0:19:37Oh, no. That's bad luck.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40- Came to try and do the deal. £65. - He's distraught.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42- On the brush set.- Yeah?

0:19:42 > 0:19:45Came back...gone, for more money than we were going to pay.

0:19:45 > 0:19:49There's a lesson to be learned. Anyway, you've got two items. That's great.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52- I think we've actually bought the better piece.- I'm mortified.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54But you know what? You've got six minutes left.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56- I know.- You've only got six minutes.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59- Can you help us?- What are you doing here, hanging about?

0:19:59 > 0:20:01You're our Obi-Wan. We need you.

0:20:01 > 0:20:03You need me? You need HER.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05- That's what. You need somebody. - We need help!

0:20:05 > 0:20:08- We need help. - Then you'd better get on with it.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11Time is just running away from the Blues.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14Their frantic searching doesn't appear to have been successful

0:20:14 > 0:20:17and now they've just one minute to buy their last item.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19What are they going to do?

0:20:19 > 0:20:21We're going to go back and get the thingy.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23To me and you, that's the magnifying glass.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25Five.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Four.

0:20:28 > 0:20:29- Three.- Come on!

0:20:29 > 0:20:32- Two. - I'm worried. I'm really worried.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35- One.- What have you done? - We've bought it for £47.50.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38- It's a gamble. - Let me just check, Bramwell.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41- It works.- Definitely a bargain in there, Bramwell.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45- That's it. Time's up. - Well done, anyway.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47- Well done, guys. - I really think we need a cup of tea.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51- Yeah. Let's go and get one. - Or something a little bit stronger, maybe.

0:20:51 > 0:20:52Phew. That was frantic.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54Talk about cutting it fine.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57Let's recap on what the Reds bought.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02With the stallholder mesmerised, they managed to get a tenner off.

0:21:02 > 0:21:04£30 paid.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08The locket caught their eye and so did the price at £70.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15The Limoges tea set was right up their street, at £15.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19- So, girls, was that good or was it good?- Yeah.

0:21:19 > 0:21:22- Great.- We had great fun, didn't we?

0:21:22 > 0:21:24Well, there we go. I'm glad you did.

0:21:24 > 0:21:27Now, which is your favourite piece, Becky?

0:21:27 > 0:21:33- I think the locket with the pearls. - What about you, Georgina?

0:21:33 > 0:21:38I'd say the silver christening cup. It's different and hopefully it'll make the most profit.

0:21:38 > 0:21:39Will that make the most profit?

0:21:39 > 0:21:42- I really hope it does. - I think so, as well.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44You're going to go with your sister?

0:21:44 > 0:21:45I think so. Fingers crossed on that one.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48You spent £115. Not a lot.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51I'd like to have £185 of leftover lolly to Anita.

0:21:51 > 0:21:56- So what was it like, Anita, operating with the young ones? - We had a wonderful time.

0:21:56 > 0:22:04We had a marvellous girlie day shopping and generally having a good old time to ourselves.

0:22:04 > 0:22:07Well, that was lovely. So what are you going to do with all that money, then?

0:22:07 > 0:22:12Well, I've got my eye on a little piece of bling which I think might

0:22:12 > 0:22:18- bring an even bigger smile on the girls' faces.- If that's possible.

0:22:18 > 0:22:23Anyway, Anita, you're just a great big kid yourself, so off you go and good luck.

0:22:23 > 0:22:26Let's remind ourselves what the Blues bought.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30After half an hour of knocking stallholders down,

0:22:30 > 0:22:33the Blues finally managed to agree on a price

0:22:33 > 0:22:36and bought their first item, for £18.

0:22:37 > 0:22:41After much deliberation, Catherine and Stuart overruled Bramwell

0:22:41 > 0:22:45and bought the tortoiseshell case for £159.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Even with seconds to go, Bramwell was determined

0:22:49 > 0:22:51to get the magnifying glass a little bit cheaper.

0:22:51 > 0:22:56He ran out of time, though, and had to settle with paying £47.50.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00Cor, what a scramble it is with you lot!

0:23:00 > 0:23:04- We went pretty close to the wire. - Half a second to go!

0:23:04 > 0:23:06- This is ridiculous. - We don't mess around.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08You had a good time, that's the main thing.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10So, Bram, which is your favourite piece?

0:23:10 > 0:23:12I like the quirky granite inkwell.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14Do you? That's your favourite. What about you, Stuart?

0:23:14 > 0:23:19I like the tortoiseshell jewellery box. I thought it was the classiest item.

0:23:19 > 0:23:23- So that's your favourite?- Yeah. - Which piece will bring the biggest profit, do you think?

0:23:23 > 0:23:25- I think the...- Tortoiseshell.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27- It's going to fly out. - The tortoiseshell?- Yeah.

0:23:27 > 0:23:32You're agreed on the tortoiseshell for your prediction of most profit.

0:23:32 > 0:23:38OK. Fine. You spent £224.50 which is a magnificent effort, I have to say.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41Oddball number but I'll have £75.50's worth of leftover lolly

0:23:41 > 0:23:44- for Catherine to find a bonus buy. - Thank you.

0:23:44 > 0:23:47Are you still with us? Cos you must be exhausted after all that.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Well, these two are exhausting.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52We've had a lot of fun, but I am really tired.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56- Are you strong enough to find something?- I don't think so, but I'll give it a go.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58- Dig deep.- Wish me luck. - I will. Good luck, Catherine.

0:23:58 > 0:24:03For me, I'm heading off somewhere fit for a king...or a queen.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19Leeds Castle, here, is nowhere near Leeds.

0:24:19 > 0:24:25It's actually quite close to Maidstone. And it was built in 1119.

0:24:25 > 0:24:33Over the years, successive kings gave this bijou country pad to their respective queens

0:24:33 > 0:24:37and it became known as the Lady's castle.

0:24:37 > 0:24:43How appropriate, therefore, that the last owner just happened to be a Lady.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45Look out.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47GEESE HONK

0:24:47 > 0:24:53Lady Bailey was a wealthy Anglo-American heiress who liked to party.

0:24:53 > 0:25:00Looking for a swish country retreat to hold her weekend soirees, she stumbled across Leeds Castle,

0:25:00 > 0:25:09fell in love with it and bought it, in 1926, for the then princely sum of £180,000.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13She both gutted and rebuilt parts of the castle

0:25:13 > 0:25:20with a view to creating spaces where she could practise the consummate art of hospitality.

0:25:20 > 0:25:26She took tiny little servants' rooms and created them into gracious reception spaces.

0:25:26 > 0:25:35She took large bedrooms and carved them up to create bathrooms in which her guests could luxuriously wallow.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40Ha! And what a place to wallow.

0:25:40 > 0:25:45We've got terribly blase these days about luxury bathrooms

0:25:45 > 0:25:49but I tell you, in the 1920s, if you actually had a bathroom,

0:25:49 > 0:25:51it was a considerable achievement

0:25:51 > 0:25:55and the number of people who would've had a bathroom like this,

0:25:55 > 0:26:02entirely lined with solid slabs of Russian striated onyx,

0:26:02 > 0:26:08this lovely brown and cream stripey stone that goes all round this space,

0:26:08 > 0:26:15the fact that you've got a semi-sunken bath with matching stone lip and surround,

0:26:15 > 0:26:18and instead of having to scrabble around for the plughole,

0:26:18 > 0:26:22this bath has got the waste fitting attached to a lever

0:26:22 > 0:26:27which would open the waste and out would go the water.

0:26:27 > 0:26:33And if you wanted to have your barnet sorted out, by the hairdresser or your personal maid,

0:26:33 > 0:26:39she'd reach into this recess and get the old shower fitting out.

0:26:39 > 0:26:45This would rinse her Ladyship's hair while she's bending over the wash hand basin.

0:26:45 > 0:26:50You've got the mixer tap here, all in glorious chromium plate.

0:26:50 > 0:26:56And having had your hair done, you come over to the castle window and look out.

0:26:57 > 0:27:02How many bathrooms sit on a magnificent lake like that?

0:27:02 > 0:27:05Not many, eh?

0:27:05 > 0:27:09Right next door to the bathroom, we've got the ultimate feminine place

0:27:09 > 0:27:16but stylistically, this room looks as if it's been transplanted from 18th-century France.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19So what's the purpose of this space?

0:27:19 > 0:27:23Why were all these high-quality French fittings fitted up here?

0:27:23 > 0:27:28Well, these glazed doors do look rather like library bookcase doors, don't they?

0:27:28 > 0:27:31Containing books? Oh, no.

0:27:31 > 0:27:37Not a library for books, but a library for clothes and shoes.

0:27:37 > 0:27:46Imelda Marcos, eat your heart out, because Lady Bailey was collecting shoes years before you.

0:27:46 > 0:27:51Time now, I think, to put our best foot forward and shuffle off to the auction.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07We've come to Chiswick Auctions in West London today.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10It's a joy to be with our auctioneer, William Rice.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12- Welcome, Tim.- Thank you.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14The teams, then, Becky and Georgina, the Reds,

0:28:14 > 0:28:17first up, they've got this little christening mug,

0:28:17 > 0:28:21which I think is suffering from what I call the Brillo Pad school of cleaning.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23I mean, it's quite badly polished off, isn't it?

0:28:23 > 0:28:26It isn't terribly well polished and it's a bit plain.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30Sometimes they sort of have rib decoration round them

0:28:30 > 0:28:32or just something to give it a bit of extra oomph.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35It's silver and silver price is good at the moment.

0:28:35 > 0:28:39Quite. And they only paid £30. What's your estimate on it?

0:28:39 > 0:28:44I think we've put 40-60 on it, actually, so I'd be astounded if they didn't make a small profit on it.

0:28:44 > 0:28:47Brilliant. OK. Well, that would be very nice to kick off with.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49Next is the pendant locket.

0:28:49 > 0:28:53Nine-carat gold hallmark. Real seed pearls.

0:28:53 > 0:28:54I think it's quite sweet.

0:28:54 > 0:28:57It's in good condition too, which is important.

0:28:57 > 0:29:00- It's ready for something to go inside.- Ready to go.- Absolutely.

0:29:00 > 0:29:04- How much, then, do you think? - 50 plus.- 50 plus. £70 was paid.

0:29:04 > 0:29:05Gold and pearls together.

0:29:05 > 0:29:09- What more could you want?- Well, quite. What more could a girl want?

0:29:09 > 0:29:13What about the little Limoges miniature set?

0:29:13 > 0:29:19Well, it's not everybody's taste, it has to be said, but it's complete and that's pretty important.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21Yes.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24- So how much, then, do you think? - Well, again, I think £50-£80.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27Do you? £15 is all they paid for that.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30Good. Well, we've done very well with some Limoges recently.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33- Good.- Maybe that will fly away. - Well, that's marvellous.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36- Potentially, there's a bit of profit...- Should be.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38..in all of these items, which is good.

0:29:38 > 0:29:44But you never know, things can go wrong, so let's go and have a look at the bonus buy.

0:29:44 > 0:29:47You girls, you spent £115, you sisters, right?

0:29:47 > 0:29:50- Yeah.- You gave Anita, therefore, £185.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53Has she blown the lot on this wee thing?

0:29:53 > 0:29:55I certainly haven't blown the lot.

0:29:55 > 0:30:00I found this little wee object absolutely irresistible.

0:30:00 > 0:30:02Aww!

0:30:02 > 0:30:05The girls love jewellery and I was looking for a big bit of bling.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Do you like frogs, though?

0:30:08 > 0:30:11- I like sparkly ones. - Sparkly frogs, do you?

0:30:11 > 0:30:16- How much was it?- I paid £15. - 15?- That's good. Yeah.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Look how they bucked up, the girls, on that.

0:30:19 > 0:30:22I was expecting a bit more, so I think that's good.

0:30:22 > 0:30:25- So, Georgina, what do you think? - Yeah. I like it. It's sweet.

0:30:25 > 0:30:27- It's different. You don't really see a brooch like that.- No.

0:30:27 > 0:30:30- I've never seen one like that! - You don't have to decide now.

0:30:30 > 0:30:33You'll decide after the sale of the first three items.

0:30:33 > 0:30:39But for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Anita's green brooch.

0:30:39 > 0:30:42- So, William, something completely different.- Certainly is.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44I think it's rather fun.

0:30:44 > 0:30:48It isn't gold, obviously, and there's nothing precious about it metal-wise,

0:30:48 > 0:30:53but it's enamel and sort of little tiny chips of what look like diamonds.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56How much, do you think?

0:30:56 > 0:31:02- Well, I think with a following wind, £20, £30.- OK. Fine. Well, Anita paid £15 and she's very canny.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04- She should turn a profit on that. - I think so.

0:31:04 > 0:31:08Good. That's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues, Bramwell and Stuart.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10Their first item is the little inkwell.

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Not a very capacious inkwell.

0:31:12 > 0:31:16It's got the tiniest little space for ink but, yeah, inkwell it certainly is.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20Transfer decorated and it is what it is, really.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22Yes. How much, though, do you think?

0:31:22 > 0:31:25Well, I think I'd put about £30, £40 on it.

0:31:25 > 0:31:26Well, that's brilliant. £18 paid.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28That's not so bad. Excellent.

0:31:28 > 0:31:33Next is the little tortoiseshell necklace box.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37I think that's a very nice thing. It's in good condition.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40Its silver-gilt hinges are hallmarked so we can date it.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43It's got nice initials slap bang in the middle,

0:31:43 > 0:31:47though I challenge anybody to work out what they actually are.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49- It's a very complicated monogram, isn't it?- It is.- Yeah.

0:31:49 > 0:31:53But it's just a really attractive box and tortoiseshell is always desirable,

0:31:53 > 0:31:56- especially if it's in good condition. - What do you think it's worth?

0:31:56 > 0:31:58I think £200.

0:31:58 > 0:32:04Do you? Well, £159 was paid with some trepidation. Let's hope it does well.

0:32:04 > 0:32:08And lastly in their purchases, is this little magnifying glass.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10Now, do you think that handle's ivory or what?

0:32:10 > 0:32:15I don't think it is. No. I'm not quite sure what it is, actually, but ivory it isn't.

0:32:15 > 0:32:20Sometimes they make them out of old knives or old bits of cutlery. I don't think this one has been.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23I think it's always been a magnifying glass.

0:32:23 > 0:32:29Well, they paid another pretty keen price for this. £47.50 was paid for that magnifying glass.

0:32:29 > 0:32:31It ought to sell, I think,

0:32:31 > 0:32:33with a sort of estimate around the £30 mark.

0:32:33 > 0:32:35Round the £30 mark. Right.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37- 25-40.- So they may not do quite so well on that.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39I don't think anybody will go crazy about it.

0:32:39 > 0:32:42No. Crazy. Good.

0:32:42 > 0:32:45Well, just in case, let's go and have a look at the bonus buy.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49Well, boys, you spent £224.50, which is great.

0:32:49 > 0:32:53You gave Catherine £75.50. What did she spend it on?

0:32:53 > 0:32:55- Are you ready for this, guys?- No.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57Here we are.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59Look at these little beauties.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02They're miniature Toby jugs.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04- Really?- A Mr and a Mrs.

0:33:04 > 0:33:07- Which one am I? - You're the Mrs.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09- Of course.- Definitely.

0:33:09 > 0:33:10Does that work about right?

0:33:10 > 0:33:13Let's have a closer look at these.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16- Oh, yeah. - Mine's got lipstick on there.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19- Royal Worcester.- I like them.

0:33:19 > 0:33:25I paid £40 for them and I think we should make a bit of profit on these

0:33:25 > 0:33:27cos the book price is about £50, £60 each.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29I don't personally like them, but we might make a profit.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32They're going to make money. That's the main thing.

0:33:32 > 0:33:33That's the main thing. Absolutely.

0:33:33 > 0:33:35- Nice jugs(!)- They're nice.

0:33:35 > 0:33:38On that note, I think we'll move on quickly

0:33:38 > 0:33:43and find out what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's little bits of pottery.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45There you go. You can have Mrs.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47What do you make of these little Worcester jokers?

0:33:47 > 0:33:52I was worried about them at the beginning because I don't think they're terribly good quality

0:33:52 > 0:33:56and Worcester is, after all, known for fundamentally really good things.

0:33:56 > 0:34:01I know what you mean, because the underglaze transferred mark

0:34:01 > 0:34:06is underneath a particularly odd-looking milky glaze.

0:34:06 > 0:34:10It just doesn't hang together terribly well and with the poor painting on top,

0:34:10 > 0:34:12it does make me slightly doubt them.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15I think you're right to be suspicious.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17But having said that, what are they worth?

0:34:17 > 0:34:20- £40.- Right.- Something like that. - Catherine paid £40.

0:34:20 > 0:34:24So anything more than 40 will show them a profit.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28- That's if they go with the bonus buy and nothing is certain in life.- No.

0:34:28 > 0:34:32Anyway, we'll find out in the auction.

0:34:40 > 0:34:43- OK, girls, how are you feeling? - Good. Excited.- Are you?- Yeah.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46- Quite nerve-racking, isn't it? - Yeah.- A bit.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49Anyway, first lot up is the christening cup and here it comes.

0:34:49 > 0:34:53Lot 92A. A little christening mug there. What's it worth? £30 for it.

0:34:53 > 0:34:55£20 for a christening mug. 20.

0:34:55 > 0:34:5922. 24. 26. 28. 30.

0:34:59 > 0:35:01- 32. 34.- Yes!

0:35:01 > 0:35:0240. 45. Do you want 45?

0:35:02 > 0:35:04£45 nearer to me.

0:35:04 > 0:35:08- At 45. It's £45 for the silver.- 50.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11- 45 it is, then. - Well, done, girls. £45.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13You are plus £15.

0:35:13 > 0:35:14Straight out. Yeah.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16Good start.

0:35:16 > 0:35:18So, your locket, Anita.

0:35:18 > 0:35:23Is it going to be so sweet on this?

0:35:23 > 0:35:25Lot 93A is a nine-carat gold pendant locket.

0:35:25 > 0:35:28Must be £30 of gold there. £20 to start me, then.

0:35:28 > 0:35:33Surely, for the little gold locket, for 20. Dear, oh, dear.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36£10, then. At 12.

0:35:36 > 0:35:3814.

0:35:38 > 0:35:4016. 18.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43£18. In the distance at £18. That's all I'm bid, at 18.

0:35:43 > 0:35:4620, fresh bidding.

0:35:46 > 0:35:4822. 24.

0:35:48 > 0:35:5126. 28. £28 to the lady. At 28.

0:35:51 > 0:35:55Anybody else want to come in, at £28?

0:35:55 > 0:35:59At 30, just in time. £30 to the gentleman, now. At £30.

0:35:59 > 0:36:00Selling it for 30.

0:36:00 > 0:36:02Bad luck, Anita. £30.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04- That is so cheap.- Minus £40.

0:36:04 > 0:36:09- Which means, overall, you are minus £25.- We'll make it up.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11- Now, Limoges.- Ooh, we could.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14Cross everything. All right?

0:36:14 > 0:36:18Everybody hold hands. Hold hands.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21Lot 94A is the Limoges tea set. Where shall we start this? £20.

0:36:21 > 0:36:26- 20 for the tea set. - Come on.- £10 I'm bid.

0:36:26 > 0:36:30At 10. 12. 14.

0:36:30 > 0:36:3320. Selling, then, for £20 only.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35At £20, that tea set.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37- £20 it is, then. - Bad luck, darling.

0:36:37 > 0:36:40- £20 is still a £5 profit. - Yeah.

0:36:40 > 0:36:43But the estimate wasn't particularly accurate, was it?

0:36:43 > 0:36:48- No. They got our hopes up. - You are overall, darlings, I'm afraid, minus £20. OK?- OK.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50You're minus £20 which is not bad.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52It could be a winning score. Are you going with the bonus buy?

0:36:52 > 0:36:55- Going to go with the froggies? - We are.- Yeah.

0:36:55 > 0:36:57- Risk £15?- Yeah. Might as well.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00- Yeah. Go on.- Yeah. We're going to do it.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03You're going with the bonus buy and here it comes.

0:37:03 > 0:37:08Lot 97A is the amusing yellow metal and green enamel brooch

0:37:08 > 0:37:10in the form of four frogs.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13Start me for £10 for the little brooch, then.

0:37:13 > 0:37:1610, I'm bid.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Anybody else? At 10. 12.

0:37:18 > 0:37:23They're appearing everywhere. At 12. 14. 16. 18. 20. 22.

0:37:23 > 0:37:2624. 26. 28.

0:37:26 > 0:37:2830. 32.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30£32, there. 34, anybody else?

0:37:30 > 0:37:33£32 in the bed. 34, there.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35£34, fresh bidder.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38At £34. Anybody else? The hammer's coming down.

0:37:38 > 0:37:4134 it is, then. 34.

0:37:41 > 0:37:47- Yes! Yes!- £34!

0:37:47 > 0:37:49£34 is plus £19.

0:37:49 > 0:37:52- You're still minus £1. - Oh, no!

0:37:52 > 0:37:56The big thing now is not to reveal your big losses to the Blues.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58- We won't. We won't. - 50p each.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00Keep really quiet about that.

0:38:00 > 0:38:01- We don't want them to know.- No.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04- But good fun, eh? - Yeah.- Loved it.

0:38:09 > 0:38:14Now, Stu, Stu, Bram, Bram, do you know how the Red Reds got on?

0:38:14 > 0:38:16- They did little eyes. - Looked a bit smug.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18A bit smug when they went past you?

0:38:18 > 0:38:20Don't like little eyes. Very unnerving.

0:38:20 > 0:38:22Is that what it is? Yeah.

0:38:22 > 0:38:27Anyway, first up, then, is the curling stone paperweight inkwell and here it comes. Och, aye!

0:38:27 > 0:38:30Lot 112A

0:38:30 > 0:38:34is an amusing pottery inkwell in the form of a curling stone.

0:38:34 > 0:38:36£20 to start me. £20 for it, surely.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38£10 for it, somebody.

0:38:38 > 0:38:4110. 10 all over the place. £10 there, sir.

0:38:41 > 0:38:4212.

0:38:42 > 0:38:4614. 16. £18, fresh bidding.

0:38:46 > 0:38:4820. At £20, then.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50I'm going to sell it for £20.

0:38:50 > 0:38:54- Well, done, Catherine. £2 profit, Catherine.- That's mean, isn't it?

0:38:54 > 0:38:56- A pound each. - A profit is a profit.

0:38:56 > 0:39:00Thank you. Now, next is going to be this necklace case.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02- All eyes on you. - We're all very nervous.

0:39:02 > 0:39:05- Tim looks worried. - Dude.- It's a dude?

0:39:05 > 0:39:08113A is the tortoiseshell box.

0:39:08 > 0:39:10Start me for 100.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13£80 for the lot. 80 I'm bid. There, £80.

0:39:13 > 0:39:1785. 90. 95. 100. 110, fresh bidding.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20120. 130.

0:39:20 > 0:39:22140. 150.

0:39:22 > 0:39:24- Go on! - 160.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26160, there. At £160. At 160.

0:39:26 > 0:39:30Anybody else? 160 is the bid, then. 160.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32Yes. Well, done.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34You've made a profit of £1.

0:39:34 > 0:39:37- Told you it'd fly. - Super. Well, done.

0:39:37 > 0:39:39Good lads. Good lads.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44OK. So, here comes the magnifying glass.

0:39:44 > 0:39:48114A is a little magnifying glass.

0:39:48 > 0:39:50114A.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52Again, I've got some interest in this.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56I'm already bid £20. With me at £20. For the little magnifying glass. £20.

0:39:56 > 0:39:5922. 24. 26. 28.

0:39:59 > 0:40:0130. 32.

0:40:01 > 0:40:0334. 36. Still with me at £36.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05Fresh bidding, 38.

0:40:05 > 0:40:0840. 45. 50.

0:40:08 > 0:40:1155. 60. Still with me at £60.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13Anybody else want to come in?

0:40:13 > 0:40:15At £60, it's on a left bid of £60.

0:40:15 > 0:40:1765.

0:40:17 > 0:40:2070. I'm afraid it's still with me at £70. That's £70 the bid.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23£70 is the bid, then. At 70.

0:40:23 > 0:40:27That's good. 70! That is something else, isn't it?

0:40:27 > 0:40:31- I do not understand that. - That's plus £22.50, right?

0:40:31 > 0:40:35Which means, overall, you are plus £25.50.

0:40:35 > 0:40:40What are you going to do about this bonus buy? You're £25.50 up. Right.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42You can park it or you can risk it.

0:40:42 > 0:40:46£40 you're putting at risk.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48Toby jugs.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50- Are you with it or not?- Yes. Yes.

0:40:50 > 0:40:52We're going with the bonus buy.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55- Link arms. Link arms. - Link arms.- £20 to start me.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57Anybody? 20, I'm bid.

0:40:57 > 0:41:00Straight in at £20. And two I'll take. At £20. 22.

0:41:00 > 0:41:0524. 26. 28. 30. 32. 34.

0:41:05 > 0:41:0836. 38.

0:41:08 > 0:41:1140. 45.

0:41:11 > 0:41:1345 with the lady. 50 now.

0:41:13 > 0:41:14£50 with the gentleman.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16At £50. Anybody else want to come in?

0:41:16 > 0:41:2050. That's £50 with the gentleman in the distance. At £50.

0:41:20 > 0:41:22I'm selling them, then. £50 they go.

0:41:22 > 0:41:24- 50.- £50 plus £10. Easy, isn't it?

0:41:24 > 0:41:26- Well, done.- You are... Whoops!

0:41:28 > 0:41:32..plus £35.50, overall. Right?

0:41:32 > 0:41:35That is...remarkable.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37Bargain Hunting at its best.

0:41:37 > 0:41:38- £35.50. Yes?- Yes.

0:41:38 > 0:41:42- Don't tell the Reds a thing. - I won't. I've got to calm down.

0:41:46 > 0:41:50Well, what an exciting programme we've had today, haven't we?

0:41:50 > 0:41:53- So have we Blues and Reds been communicating at all? No?- No.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56No conversation so you really don't know where you're up to.

0:41:56 > 0:42:02- No.- And you're standing on the edge, longing to know who the runner-up is and who the winners are.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04- Yes?- Yes.

0:42:04 > 0:42:10Well, I have to tell you that sadly, the runners-up today are the Reds.

0:42:13 > 0:42:14Tricked!

0:42:14 > 0:42:16- You girls, we had such fun, didn't we?- We did.

0:42:16 > 0:42:22I mean, you were well and truly down the plughole and then clawed it back with your froggy brooch.

0:42:22 > 0:42:28I'm afraid your overall score is only minus £1. I mean, how tough is that?

0:42:28 > 0:42:33- To get to the breaking even, at least. But it was great fun, girls, wasn't it?- Yes. It was.

0:42:33 > 0:42:37And you've been a great team. But the victors, today - the Blues.

0:42:37 > 0:42:39Profit on every single lot.

0:42:39 > 0:42:42That's an achievement, a considerable achievement.
