0:00:04 > 0:00:11We've got oceans of territory to cover today, so clamber on board and let's go Bargain Hunting.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Hello, and welcome to the Norfolk Showground in Norwich.
0:00:42 > 0:00:47This place is usually home to agricultural events.
0:00:47 > 0:00:54You get the odd circus popping in here occasionally, but today, it's all about antiques.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57There's plenty to look forward to on today's programme.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04The Blues are interested in something that's not for sale.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06- How much is it? - I'm not going to sell it.
0:01:06 > 0:01:10Oh, right. Oh, right. Thanks for telling us about that!
0:01:10 > 0:01:14The Reds seem to have struck it lucky in one particular tent.
0:01:14 > 0:01:15Shall we have a sit down as well?
0:01:15 > 0:01:18We'll bring the bits to you now.
0:01:18 > 0:01:23And will the prediction of profits and losses at the auction come true?
0:01:26 > 0:01:27So, who have we got today?
0:01:27 > 0:01:30We've got Sadie and Richard, who are friends, for the Reds.
0:01:30 > 0:01:35And we've got father and daughter, Natasha and Gary, for the Blues.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Welcome to Bargain Hunt.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39How do you happen to know each other?
0:01:39 > 0:01:43I've always known Richard. His parents owned the local post office
0:01:43 > 0:01:48when I was a child and he would serve behind the counter and everybody just knew Richard.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Did you get your sweeties from him?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52- I did indeed.- Yes.- Yes.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Lovely. You never forget those moments.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Going shopping first as a child.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- Blackjacks and stuff like that. - Yeah.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Brilliant. And you're about to have a baby.
0:02:01 > 0:02:02- I am indeed, yes.- Brilliant.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Congratulations on that. When's your baby due?
0:02:05 > 0:02:09- About six weeks.- After our auction. - After the auction.
0:02:09 > 0:02:14Brilliant. Now, Richard, or should I say Richard Bailey MBE?
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- Tell us about that experience. - Well, that was fantastic.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19It was a shock.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23When the letter came from the Prime Minister,
0:02:23 > 0:02:28I was emptying the mailbox and I straightaway opened it, read this letter, just couldn't believe it.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- I actually read it four times.- Yes.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34It was absolutely fantastic. I was really thrilled and very pleased.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37And you got your MBE for what?
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Well, mainly for the youth work that I do
0:02:39 > 0:02:43in the area and also the community work that I've done over many years.
0:02:43 > 0:02:48- I've been youth leader for 39 years now.- Have you really?
0:02:48 > 0:02:52We run football teams. We run from under-fives to under-16s.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54And then in the summer we have the cricket.
0:02:54 > 0:02:59And first week of the school holiday, we have a sports activity week.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03- We run a very successful youth club and thanks to Sadie and her husband, Tony...- Yes.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07- ..and Sharon, we have a very good team.- Well, good for you.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09And congratulations on getting your award.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10Thank you very much.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12- Very good luck to both of you. - Thank you.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Now for the father and daughter combo.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Natasha, you're a bit of a thrill-seeker, aren't you?
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Yeah. Last year I got into wakeboarding, which is basically
0:03:22 > 0:03:25being pulled along on a board behind a boat or behind a cable.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29- Really.- Yeah. Myself and my partner sort of started that last year.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33- This year I'm not going to be able to, because of having a baby.- You too?
0:03:33 > 0:03:34This is lovely.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36We've got the Bargain Hunt creche going on.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40You're a stallholder yourself, experienced in buying and selling?
0:03:40 > 0:03:46Yeah. I regularly have a car-boot sale at our local car-boot area.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48But it's not selling collectables or anything.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51It's basically things that I no longer want or need.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55- But the most that I've made is about £80.- That's pretty good.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57- Yes. It's not bad for a morning. - Fine.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01- And it's the ultimate recycling, which is good.- Yes.- Very green.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Exactly.- Now, talking about green, Gary, you're keen on your tortoises.
0:04:05 > 0:04:09- Yeah. Very keen. Yes. We have ten giant tortoises.- Ten giants?
0:04:09 > 0:04:11Yeah. From all over the world.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Different species. Our main ones are Aldabran tortoises.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16- Who?- Aldabran tortoises.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20- Oh, yeah.- Which can grow up to about half a ton in weight.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24- How many have you got? - We've got ten, but we've only got two of the really giant ones.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26And they're five years old.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28And we can't pick them up now.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- No.- They're too heavy.- And still growing?- They're still growing.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35But tortoises aren't the only thing that you collect, are they, Gary?
0:04:35 > 0:04:37No. I collect Swarovski crystal.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Been collecting that for about nine years now.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Have about 150 pieces.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43You two enjoy a few unusual sports.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46We've heard about that. Which is your favourite?
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Jet skiing's very enjoyable.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50- Jet skiing?- Yeah.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54Although it can be annoying to people on the beach.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58- It's one of the most irritating things that anybody has to listen to.- Yes, it is.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02And there are a lot of people out there that shouldn't be on the skis.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04- They're the people that you need off the water.- Yes.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06And responsible people back on.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Lovely. Well, I'm glad you enjoy that, Gary(!)
0:05:10 > 0:05:13Got that bee out of the bonnet. Now, the money moment.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15The money moment. The £300 money moment.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Here we go. £300. There we go. £300 apiece. You know the rules.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Your experts await. And off you go. And very, very, very good luck.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27So, will it be the footy-mad Reds
0:05:27 > 0:05:31who will give those exotic Blues a run for their money today?
0:05:33 > 0:05:37The pressure is really on for our teams as they only have one hour
0:05:37 > 0:05:41to find three items, although they do have £300 to blow on them.
0:05:41 > 0:05:46So, with plenty of ground to cover, I'm sure they'll be grateful for some expert guidance.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Captain for the Reds is Jonathan Pratt.
0:05:50 > 0:05:55And riding the waves with the Blues is Charles Hanson. Oh, dear!
0:06:02 > 0:06:04- They've got their flag raised, as well.- Wow.
0:06:04 > 0:06:08Is it your flag, madam?
0:06:08 > 0:06:12- What's the best price, sir, on it? - I can do you 75.- Yeah.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Yeah. I'm a very patriotic guy.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16- Yeah.- Born and bred.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- That's very interesting.- Yeah.
0:06:18 > 0:06:23- I quite like it, cos it's got nice social, military interest, of course.- Yeah.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28It's in fairly good condition and if it's hung well in the sale room, you could do quite well with that.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32I think if it was a little bit cheaper.
0:06:32 > 0:06:36Would you be interested in it, Tash? I think at the moment, the way things are,
0:06:36 > 0:06:40the climate, everything else, people may rise to it a little bit.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Absolutely. Stand up for your country.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- We'll have a think, but thank you for your time.- Thank you.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49I'm quite interested in that. I don't know...
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Sounds like they might be back for that.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Now, have the Reds spotted anything that's taken their fancy?
0:06:54 > 0:06:56How's that, then?
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Scary Spice.- Yeah.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01Possibly not antique, that.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Is there no discount?
0:07:08 > 0:07:09Hello, sir.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11- We like your cane. - Are you going to go for it?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13Well, well, we've just seen it, actually.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18Curiosity, how much would it cost to buy?
0:07:18 > 0:07:21- We've got 75 on it and the best on it is 60.- Right.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23OK. And it's what, 1885, thereabouts?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26- Yeah. It's fully hallmarked. - Right. London hallmarked. Yes.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Nice, ebonised work.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Still got the original bottom on it, as well, which is nice.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Yes. Very, very nice. And the absolute best?
0:07:34 > 0:07:3560.
0:07:35 > 0:07:3860. Yeah. Yeah. It's nice. Nice example.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40What do you think, Natasha?
0:07:40 > 0:07:42What would it make at auction if we were to take it?
0:07:42 > 0:07:46Well, obviously we're going back to wholesale, back to wholesale market.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49My guide price would be 50, 70.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53- Suits you.- It does suit me and I love walking with sticks.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55- Do you really? - I've started making my own now.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57They're made out of silver.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58Yeah. That's very good.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01It's a stylish cane. It's a good cane.
0:08:01 > 0:08:02The absolute best, is that?
0:08:02 > 0:08:06- That is the very, very best on it. - OK. Shall we think about it?
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Think about it, because that's one of my favourite pieces.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Yeah.- 40 minutes to go. - Fine.- Plenty of time.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13We can make a dash back, I think.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- Let's come back. - Thanks for your time.- Thank you.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17- Appreciate it.- Thank you.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Another item Gary is interested in.
0:08:20 > 0:08:28The Blues seem to have found lots that they like, but they haven't actually parted with any cash yet.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32That is the eagle which is on the parliament building in Berlin.
0:08:32 > 0:08:37- Yes.- It's bronze and the actual moulding was made by a watchmaker's.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Yeah. Good for you. Look after it.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41How much is it?
0:08:41 > 0:08:42I'm not going to sell it.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Oh, right. Oh, right. Thanks for telling us about that!
0:08:47 > 0:08:48OK. Good to see you.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52That's five minutes gone now. Thanks(!)
0:08:53 > 0:09:00With almost half their time gone, our teams should think about buying something, sooner rather than later.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Now, what are those Reds up to?
0:09:03 > 0:09:07Well, it weighs a blinking ton, which is actually quite a good sign.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Lacquered brass. A lacquered brass theodolite, or a level.
0:09:12 > 0:09:17It's a difficult one, really. I'm no great expert when it comes to this sort of thing,
0:09:17 > 0:09:22but it would be used as a surveyor's instrument.
0:09:22 > 0:09:27What I would obviously be wary of is that you do get fakes of this sort of thing made in the Far East.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29But I think the quality's too good.
0:09:29 > 0:09:34- Would you reduce the price on it? - I would.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39- Like 80?- I can't do 80, but I can do 85. 110 at the moment.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40What do you think, Richard?
0:09:40 > 0:09:43I was going to say to you, "What do you think?"
0:09:43 > 0:09:47Well, she's come down by £25, so if it is really...
0:09:47 > 0:09:49It's well made.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51It's lacquered brass.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55If you just have one in a sale, the internet generates the people.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59I mean, you rarely get a collection of these at auction.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- Yeah.- But £85, I think that's probably a good deal.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Shall we try that one? - OK. Thank you very much.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08I don't think I'm as confident as I ought to be!
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- SELLER:- If it makes 200, I want a cut!
0:10:10 > 0:10:14I hope for the Reds' sake it does make £200.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Wouldn't that be nice?
0:10:18 > 0:10:19That's nice.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26That's lovely. That's a really nice jug.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31It's had some restoration and what we do is test it by doing this.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33OK. So it's been restored there.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35You might think, "My God, that's awful."
0:10:35 > 0:10:39By rubbing your tooth on that part, you can see it's been restored.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41- That's a nice jug.- How do you know? What do you feel for?
0:10:41 > 0:10:43- It's very soft.- Oh, OK.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Whilst...
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Got a coin on you at all?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50- Yeah.- You tap this side.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52- Yeah.- And that side there...
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- is very soft.- OK. - That's from being restored.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- Oh, OK.- But it's a nice jug. Is it yours, sir, this jug?
0:10:57 > 0:11:03It's nice. ..No, it's priced at £58.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06What's the best you'll take? £50.
0:11:06 > 0:11:071820-ish?
0:11:07 > 0:11:09- Yes.- Yeah.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Like it? Not really.- I don't.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Don't you? - No.- Well, thanks for inviting me(!)
0:11:14 > 0:11:15That's OK!
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Well, at least she's honest.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22But yet another item they haven't bought.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26This team seem to know exactly what they like and, funnily enough, so do I.
0:11:27 > 0:11:32This is my favourite find of the day. What do you think about it?
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Technically, this thing is described as a chamber candlestick.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39It's of a form that would have held a candle
0:11:39 > 0:11:43that you'd have lit your way to bed, to your bed chamber.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Hence, chamber candlestick.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Chamber candlesticks only ever hold one candle.
0:11:50 > 0:11:58Sometimes, these things were made in a small form like this, to hold a little taper candle, a small candle.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02And that might be used on a desk where you need an open flame
0:12:02 > 0:12:06to heat up sealing wax if you were sealing letters and so forth.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08This little fellow, though, is neither.
0:12:08 > 0:12:12It's not a chamber candlestick, nor is it a taper candlestick...
0:12:12 > 0:12:14cos he's got a little secret.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17What looks like a candle is actually made of metal
0:12:17 > 0:12:24and I can unscrew it like that and reveal a hollow central tube
0:12:24 > 0:12:27and that central tube goes into the base.
0:12:27 > 0:12:33You'd fill the shaft with methylated spirits, screw this chap down...
0:12:33 > 0:12:37like that. It would then have a bit of wick sticking out of the top
0:12:37 > 0:12:39and use the thing for lighting cigars.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43It was made in London in 1892
0:12:43 > 0:12:49and I think it's probably worth, in a specialist sale, around £400 to £600.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52But what would it cost you here today in the fair?
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Well, it could be yours for £200.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58So, strictly speaking, it's a bargain,
0:12:58 > 0:13:00which is nice, isn't it?
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Have our teams found anything as interesting?
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Well, it looks like Sadie has.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09What do you think? Is it a bit heavy?
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Well, the key for these things is condition, and the glass is in good order.
0:13:13 > 0:13:18You've got some scratches on the foot rim which essentially helps you say it's...
0:13:18 > 0:13:21This is an object that would have been picked up quite often.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Picking up and putting down on a dressing table,
0:13:23 > 0:13:26it's going to get wear on the foot rim. That's about right.
0:13:26 > 0:13:31The other thing is, you often find that you get later mounts
0:13:31 > 0:13:34put onto glass where they ground down something slightly larger.
0:13:34 > 0:13:42But looking inside, obviously, it's got a thread and the glass seems to be in nice order inside.
0:13:42 > 0:13:47I think it's quite original, really, and it hasn't been dropped in any way, obviously. There's no dents.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49What do you think it'd make at auction?
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Well, again, it's...
0:13:51 > 0:13:53What's on there? 40?
0:13:53 > 0:13:5565.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58It's quite a pretty design.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Got little swags on the glass.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03- What is your...?- Yeah.- 50, I'd say.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05£50 is the lady's best.
0:14:05 > 0:14:0645?
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Cos you quite like the idea?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Yes, a scent bottle with a silver top.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Go on, then. 45.- OK.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- Thank you.- There we go.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Shall we have a sit down as well?
0:14:17 > 0:14:20We'll bring the bits to you now.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Come on, Jonathan. This isn't the time to be sitting down.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26You might be two items ahead of the Blues,
0:14:26 > 0:14:31but don't relax too much, as they're going back to look at the flag.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34OK, hi. Do you mind if I have a quick word with you?
0:14:34 > 0:14:38- No.- That's great. Just remind me, the provenance to this...
0:14:38 > 0:14:41How do you know it's come from the Falklands?
0:14:41 > 0:14:45This was on HMS Active and there is a pennant that comes with it.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- Right.- It's here.
0:14:47 > 0:14:48Right.
0:14:50 > 0:14:51That's the pennant.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Oh, yes.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Which has HMS Active and there's the serial number on there.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Great. So it's all completely...?
0:14:58 > 0:15:00- Yeah. I did a little research.- Good.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02We like it. You know we're very proud, of course.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04- As you should be.- Yeah. Quite right.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08Yeah. But we're hoping we can perhaps negotiate a little.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- Now, your best price, sir, will be how much?- Well, I'll do 75.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14£75 for you, best.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18I'm thinking more of 55, 60.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Erm, I'm afraid, no.
0:15:20 > 0:15:2375 and I think you've still got some room on that one.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27- 70 and we have a deal?- Go on, then.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Yeah. 70.- Shake on it. Shake on it.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32- Thank you very much.- Thanks, sir.
0:15:32 > 0:15:38Not bad work, Gary, although it has taken you 35 minutes to buy your first item.
0:15:38 > 0:15:44The Blues banked the cane earlier and, surprise, surprise, they're back for a second look.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48All importantly, Natasha, we've got here the sets of hallmarks.
0:15:48 > 0:15:53- There we've got the all-important lion passant to confirm it's sterling silver.- Yeah.
0:15:53 > 0:15:58There, Gary, is our hallmark for London, the leopard's head.
0:15:58 > 0:16:03And the all-important date letter which is, what, circa 1890.
0:16:03 > 0:16:041885, that one.
0:16:04 > 0:16:111885, so it's a good, late Victorian and it's ebonised stone colour.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13It was popular at that time, of course.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Would you take 55?
0:16:15 > 0:16:19I will take another £2 off. I'll meet you 58 and that'll be me done.
0:16:19 > 0:16:24It hasn't been through the sale room cos I bought it privately, that one.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26How about 57.50, then?
0:16:26 > 0:16:28I'll do you 57.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Lovely. 57, then? Yeah.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32The female touch here. The female touch.
0:16:32 > 0:16:37Oh, Natasha, you do drive a hard bargain, love.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40But that extra pound at auction could make all the difference.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43So it's 2-2 to our teams and 20 minutes remaining on the clock.
0:16:43 > 0:16:50The Reds have £170 left, the Blues have just a few pounds more - 173.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55The jug isn't Natasha's cup of tea, but she seems to trust
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Charles' opinion and the Blues are back, weighing it up.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01I think it's a really nice jug.
0:17:01 > 0:17:02John and Ruth Wild.
0:17:02 > 0:17:07Don't know who they were, but it doesn't matter. It's 190 years old.
0:17:07 > 0:17:08OK. It's printed,
0:17:08 > 0:17:11Gary, and hand-enamelled. "God speed the plough".
0:17:11 > 0:17:15Obviously made, I think, to commemorate a wedding
0:17:15 > 0:17:21in the 1820s, so again, back to five years after Waterloo.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24You know, 15 years before Queen Victoria came on the throne.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Great history. Have a handle.
0:17:28 > 0:17:32- There's ten minutes to go.- I've already said I don't like it, but...
0:17:32 > 0:17:34I think it would probably do well.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38At the end of the day, Mr Wonnacott, you know, Dad, you might tell me,
0:17:38 > 0:17:42son, it's a bad buy, but I like this and I think it will make a profit.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45At £50, it might be, Charles.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Don't be too hard on yourself, lad.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50The Reds started off so well.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54Now there's less than ten minutes left and still one item to find.
0:17:54 > 0:17:58Luckily for them, they've got £170 to blow on it.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00I like the colours.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Exactly. That's a nice bit of decorative glass. You like the colours.
0:18:03 > 0:18:05- Yeah.- Is there a problem with it?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Just twist it back or was it how the light caught it?
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- It's quite modern, though, isn't it? - Yeah.- It is modern. Yeah.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14I actually quite like this type of coloured glass, personally.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- Yeah.- It's probably made out of white glass.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20We need to ask...Dad?
0:18:20 > 0:18:21- Yes!- How much is it?
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- £25.- £25.- I'll do it for 20 quid.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26You can do it for £20. Not a lot of money.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Can you actually put something in there?
0:18:29 > 0:18:30What is that?
0:18:30 > 0:18:35- There's a few lines going across here.- No.- No.
0:18:35 > 0:18:40Little bit of a chip. I think it's been polished out slightly. 15?
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- 15.- Do you think we're going to make anything on it if it's not perfect?
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Cos there are a few lines going across it as well.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50That's just part of the body. That's just the way the colour is done.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52That's not a flaw in itself.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54There's a little bruise there, which I think...
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Yes, you know...
0:18:57 > 0:18:5812 quid?
0:18:58 > 0:19:01Toss you a coin. 12 or 15.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Go on, then.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06It's not a special coin out the van. Here we go.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08Yeah. Heads I win, tails you lose.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Can we use that after?
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Let's call it 10 or 15.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Call it 5 or 20.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Oh, blimey. We have to buy it, then, don't we?
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- You call.- You call. Yeah. Go on.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Heads.- Heads.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Tails.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- 15 quid.- Never mind, then.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34Even though they lost the coin toss, Sadie worked her charm
0:19:34 > 0:19:38on the stallholder and convinced him to sell it to them for £12.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44No. It's not the half-time whistle.
0:19:44 > 0:19:46It's full-time. Game's over.
0:19:46 > 0:19:47Stop the shopping.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Jonathan isn't so certain about the theodolite,
0:19:50 > 0:19:54but Sadie weighed it up and decided £25 off was a good deal.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55They paid 85.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Just a few minutes later, in the same tent,
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Sadie spotted the scent bottle and again,
0:20:01 > 0:20:05got a bit extra knocked off and it was hers for £45.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09With just five minutes remaining,
0:20:09 > 0:20:11Jonathan recommended some glass.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14And with Sadie's help, they knocked the price down to £12.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Well, that was fun, wasn't it?
0:20:17 > 0:20:23A real riot. Now, you cantered round to get two items from one stall in the first half an hour.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- We did. Yeah.- Very proud of you, Dad.- We were lucky.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30All that training, Richard. Sadie, which is your favourite piece?
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- The perfume bottle. - Yes. What about you, Rich?
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- The theodolite.- Your favourite.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Which piece for the biggest profit, Sadie?
0:20:37 > 0:20:41- I hope the theodolite.- And you agree with that?- I would agree.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43OK. Fine. We'll hope for the best there.
0:20:43 > 0:20:48You spent £142. I'd like £158 of leftover lolly, please.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52£158, which is an awful lot of dosh.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55- I don't understand what's going on here.- A bit of shrapnel.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57But straight over to you, Jonathan.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- Thank you. - Are you feeling kind of confident?
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I've seen the right place to go to.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04- You have confidence?- Yes.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Well, we look forward to the fruits of your labour.
0:21:07 > 0:21:12- As long as it's just my labour.- Yes. - OK.- Talking about labour...
0:21:12 > 0:21:13We'll skip this subject!
0:21:13 > 0:21:17- OK.- Very good luck, Jonathan. See what I mean? Really dodgy, this.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20Anyway, let's check up what the Blues bought, eh?
0:21:21 > 0:21:24Both Gary and Nattie came over all patriotic,
0:21:24 > 0:21:27so let's hope the bidders get behind them at the auction.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30They bought the flag for £70.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Gary was instantly taken with the cane
0:21:32 > 0:21:36and with Natasha's help, they got the price down to £57.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Like all their purchases today,
0:21:39 > 0:21:42the jug was also something they spotted earlier.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46It wasn't to Natasha's taste, but they went with it anyway, for £50.
0:21:48 > 0:21:53You were very methodical in your walk around the fair and decisive,
0:21:53 > 0:21:55which is admirable, and you managed to get inside
0:21:55 > 0:21:58before it started to rain too, which is very clever.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01- Did you have a great time, Natasha? - I had a great time.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- Was it good for you, Dad? - Yeah. Very, very good.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06- Which is your favourite piece? - I like the cane.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09- The cane?- Yeah. - And what about you, Gary?
0:22:09 > 0:22:12I like the cane, yes, very much so.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15We're into a flagellation party. What fun!
0:22:15 > 0:22:19And which piece is going to bring the biggest profit, do you think?
0:22:19 > 0:22:21The cane will bring the biggest profit.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23It's ridiculous.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25- The biggest profit, Dad?- The flag.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29- Oh, the flag.- Yes.- Ah, we've got a change of heart here. Excellent.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33- You spent £177, yes?- Yes. We did.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35I'd like £123 of leftover lolly.
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Thank you very much. £123.
0:22:37 > 0:22:41- What are you going to do with all that money?- I'm feeling broody.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44- Broody?- With Natasha's forthcoming events,
0:22:44 > 0:22:48I'm looking for something with a certain baby feel about it.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Cute, you know. Cuddly, and all of that.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55What's this hip movement that goes with this cuddly arrangement?
0:22:55 > 0:22:57I don't quite follow that.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- It's quite groovy. - It happens all the time.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- Does it?- Yes.- Lovely. I should stop while you're ahead.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Go off and make a serious purchase, Charles.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Now, do you fancy a nice little day trip? Then follow me.
0:23:12 > 0:23:13Felbrigg Hall in Norfolk.
0:23:13 > 0:23:19Converted from a Tudor building in 1620 to a fine Jacobean manor house.
0:23:19 > 0:23:26The south front, seen here with its flat roof and octagonal brick chimneys, are typical of the period.
0:23:26 > 0:23:32The inscription, Gloria Deo In Excelsius - Glory Be To God In The Highest -
0:23:32 > 0:23:37is also familiar for the period and region of Norfolk.
0:23:37 > 0:23:45The biting North Sea wind has made its presence felt, exposing pebbles, stones, brick, plaster, flint.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48In fact, all manor of materials.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52But that doesn't stop the place being utterly charming.
0:23:54 > 0:24:01But if I take a walk round to the west wing, it looks like a completely different house.
0:24:01 > 0:24:08The Windham family didn't feel the necessity to tie themselves to any one particular style.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11I can't wait to have a look inside.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Here we go.
0:24:21 > 0:24:26This extremely deep doorway connects the original
0:24:26 > 0:24:3017th-century part of the house with the extension
0:24:30 > 0:24:32and leads to the dining room.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36The first thing that grabs you in this space is the colour scheme.
0:24:36 > 0:24:44This lovely, soft, gentle, lilac colour, which is thought to be original.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48This space, when built, would have been relatively unadorned.
0:24:48 > 0:24:53But the plasterwork, all these exotic and delicate
0:24:53 > 0:24:57plaster mouldings, were all added in 1752
0:24:57 > 0:25:01by the celebrated plasterer, Joseph Rose.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06One of the best effects created by Rose is the integration
0:25:06 > 0:25:12of no less than eight oval mirrors running around the lower part of the dining room.
0:25:12 > 0:25:19Nine-tenths of the houses that you visit have mirrors in dining rooms, but they're separate from the wall.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24Here, Rose has created a plaster frame that looks exactly the same
0:25:24 > 0:25:32as a giltwood one, but actually, it's simply a protuberance from the wall itself.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36What do you think about this fireplace surround? Handsome, isn't it?
0:25:36 > 0:25:41Designed specifically for this space by James Paine, the architect.
0:25:41 > 0:25:48The focal point of fireplaces like this is the keystone, or tablet, that sits in the middle,
0:25:48 > 0:25:54and here we've got, most appropriately for a dining room, a rather dozy-looking lion
0:25:54 > 0:25:59with these delicious grapes spewing out of his mouth.
0:25:59 > 0:26:05Appropriate, of course, because in this room, an awful lot of wine would have been consumed.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09The Windham family had incredible taste.
0:26:09 > 0:26:15The big question today is, will our teams be displaying any taste over at the auction?
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Very, very flat, Norfolk.
0:26:36 > 0:26:43Well, most of it is, but here in Diss, it's extremely hilly and we've come to see
0:26:43 > 0:26:47Elizabeth Talbot at TW Gaze, auction house extraordinaire.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- Very nice to be here.- Thank you.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54- Our Red team, Sadie and Richard, they went with this theodolite.- Yes.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Actually, it's no more a theodolite than I am, is it?
0:26:57 > 0:26:59It looks like a theodolite.
0:26:59 > 0:27:05It does. It is a 20th-century and very late 20th-century reproduction of the real thing.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07And we do see quite a lot of these now.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09People must be aware of them,
0:27:09 > 0:27:13- because if you are untoward, you don't know you're buying the wrong thing.- Yes.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16What do you think it's going to bring, or might bring?
0:27:16 > 0:27:19- Well, we've put an estimate of £100 to 150 on it.- Oh, have you?
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Oh, well, that's very generous.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25No. £85 they paid.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Next is something completely different.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30A little silver-topped scent bottle.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34Forever popular, silver-topped bottles, aren't they?
0:27:34 > 0:27:38They are. This is not cut. This is sort of a moulded glass piece.
0:27:38 > 0:27:45Very pretty item and to have a screw lid rather than a hinged lid is quite unusual too. Condition is nice.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48- Pretty and elegant.- Like you.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51I'm lost for words now.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Don't worry. Just blush. That's fine.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56So we've put an estimate of £48 to £58 on that.
0:27:56 > 0:28:0248 to 58. They paid £45, so they'll be delighted if they turn a small profit on that, which is great.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05And now we swim over very quickly to the Isle of Wight,
0:28:05 > 0:28:09which is a long way from Norfolk, and we got this little turquoise...
0:28:09 > 0:28:12- The medina.- The medina glass vase.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15Is that something that lights people up here?
0:28:15 > 0:28:18There is a collector's market for that ware.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22It isn't 100% perfect, but it is a good colour.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26Nice size. Our estimate is £15 to £25.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30- Well, they only paid £12, which is cheap enough, isn't it?- Yes.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33It depends on what happens with the theodolite.
0:28:33 > 0:28:38And just in case we catch the wrong angle with that, we'd better go and have a look at the bonus buy.
0:28:39 > 0:28:45So, Sadie and Richard, you spent £142. You gave £158 to Jonathan,
0:28:45 > 0:28:48who has your bonus buy. Let's have a look.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54That's hideous. Oh, that is awful.
0:28:56 > 0:29:00- Isn't that fantastic? - That is really atrocious.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03- Sorry.- Oh...right.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06We have a stuffed fish in a case.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09It's not that old, but it's nicely presented. It's in good condition
0:29:09 > 0:29:13and it's very decorative for the people who like this sort of thing.
0:29:13 > 0:29:17Are there many people out there that like stuffed fish these days?
0:29:17 > 0:29:20Well, let me tell you first of all how much I paid for it.
0:29:20 > 0:29:24- £35.- You were done. - Not a lot of money.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26That's interesting.
0:29:26 > 0:29:27- A shark.- Thank you very much.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31- It's a bit of a red herring, I suppose.- Here we go.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35- The only fish joke I can come out with.- Well, on that happy note...(!)
0:29:35 > 0:29:36Cos they obviously love it.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39Why don't we find out, at least for the audience at home,
0:29:39 > 0:29:42what the auctioneer thinks about the old fish case.
0:29:43 > 0:29:46So, Elizabeth, here comes supper.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49- Thank you, Tim. - How does that grab you, seriously?
0:29:49 > 0:29:51It doesn't grab me at all, I'm afraid.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54This, to me, is the fishy version of the theodolite.
0:29:54 > 0:30:00- I personally think this is a reproduction bogus piece.- Do you?
0:30:00 > 0:30:04It's in a new case with new backing, which automatically makes me think
0:30:04 > 0:30:06that it's not a good piece for collectors.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10Well spotted, Elizabeth, cos that would be so easy not to reckon.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Anyway, for only £35,
0:30:13 > 0:30:17which is what Jonathan Pratt paid for this as a bonus buy,
0:30:17 > 0:30:23is there any prospect, if it's a modern reproduction of it, making any sort of profit, do you think?
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- We put a £20 to £30 estimate on it, as a decorative item.- Hmm.
0:30:27 > 0:30:28Now, that's it for the Reds.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31Moving on seamlessly to the Blues, Natasha and Gary.
0:30:31 > 0:30:36Their first item, I think, is most interesting, this Union Jack.
0:30:36 > 0:30:41What about that for a historically-interesting flag?
0:30:41 > 0:30:45- Full-sized flags do sell quite well.- Hmm.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48Good condition. It has its pennant which goes with it.
0:30:48 > 0:30:52So, we have hopes that it will make between £80 to £120.
0:30:52 > 0:30:55£80 to £120. Well, that would be brilliant, because they paid £70.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58- That's fair.- Yeah. What about the cane?
0:30:58 > 0:31:02The cane is late Victorian, it dates from the late 1880s,
0:31:02 > 0:31:04silver-topped, fairly straightforward,
0:31:04 > 0:31:09but it is pretty. The silver is quite well repused.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12It's fairly straightforward. Think about £100, £150 on that one.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14- They only paid 57.- Oh, right.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16So, that was a complete bargain.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20Brilliant. And what about the lovely agricultural jug?
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Just the place to sell that, here in Norfolk, I guess.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25It's a lovely piece of pearlware
0:31:25 > 0:31:29and it's so well decorated, front and back.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31And if your surname happens to be Wild,
0:31:31 > 0:31:34the family that's got the connection, so much the better.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36- I think that's a super piece.- Yes.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40And we hope that it will find a happy home between 120 and £180.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42Gosh. £50 is all they paid.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46So they could triple their money on this. That is exciting.
0:31:46 > 0:31:49We're feeling a flush coming on.
0:31:49 > 0:31:53Well, before we get too flushed, let's check out their bonus buy.
0:31:55 > 0:32:01Natasha and Gary, you managed to spend 177, which is pretty good going. You gave Charles £123.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05He's struggling there with this bonus buy. Let's see what you bought, Charles.
0:32:05 > 0:32:10I like to spend money, but thinking of Natasha's forthcoming baby and all of that, I've got...
0:32:10 > 0:32:11Look at this.
0:32:11 > 0:32:16It's different. It's interesting. It's quite speculative.
0:32:16 > 0:32:22What I've bought is a Chinese softwood baby's bath tub.
0:32:22 > 0:32:27And it will date to about 1890, 1910, in this wonderful
0:32:27 > 0:32:32sort of red lacquered type of enamel and I quite like it. What do you think?
0:32:32 > 0:32:36I think it'll probably do quite well if someone put plants in it.
0:32:36 > 0:32:37Put a baby, Natasha.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40A baby's not going in that.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44- Sorry. - "My baby's not going in there.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47"My baby's not going anywhere near that thing."
0:32:47 > 0:32:49It has a wonderful, historic interest and I wonder
0:32:49 > 0:32:52how many babies have been in this bath tub, years ago.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55- It cost me £40.- £40.
0:32:55 > 0:32:59So, hopefully, Gary, it's going to make, you know, £60 or £70.
0:32:59 > 0:33:00I really hope so, Tim.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02Yes. Well, we all hope so, Charles.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04Having listened to that spiel.
0:33:04 > 0:33:08Course, you don't have to take it.
0:33:08 > 0:33:12You may decide to reject it, but for the benefit of the audience at home,
0:33:12 > 0:33:16let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles' baby bath.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20Now, the big question is, Elizabeth...
0:33:20 > 0:33:24would you be bathing one of your babies in this fellow?
0:33:24 > 0:33:26I wouldn't now. They're too big.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30I've never seen the like. I think this is quite charming, actually.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33But not as a bath, but as just a wonderful,
0:33:33 > 0:33:35decorative planter. I like the colour.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38I like the mellow nature of it. It's quite rustic. Not too big.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40- Lots of positives.- Yeah.
0:33:40 > 0:33:44And so we've estimated at £40 to £60, because I think for that money
0:33:44 > 0:33:47you couldn't really achieve a similar decorative item elsewhere.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Charles Hanson rates it. He paid £40.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53- Oh, well, I think that's fine.- You're putting a profitable estimate on it.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55- What more can one ask?- Absolutely.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58- Well, actually, I do have a question to ask you.- Yes?
0:33:58 > 0:34:00How are you feeling about today?
0:34:00 > 0:34:01I'm all geared up for it, Tim, yes.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04I love it when a woman is geared up.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17So, team, how you feeling? Sades?
0:34:17 > 0:34:19I wouldn't say I'm overly confident.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22- Are you not?- No. Hopeful.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26Hopeful. Well, hope springs eternal, doesn't it? What about you, Richard?
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Anxious, I think is the word to describe it. Yeah.
0:34:30 > 0:34:34We haven't got a lot of confidence, really, have we? No. We'll see.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37First up, then, is the theodolite and here it comes.
0:34:37 > 0:34:42We have the 20th-century brass theodolite.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44Start me at 80.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46£80, look.
0:34:46 > 0:34:5050 to start, surely. Come on. It's a good piece there at 50.
0:34:50 > 0:34:5650 bid. Thank you. 50, I have. I'll take 5. 55. 60. 5.
0:34:56 > 0:34:5965, in the gallery. At 65 now. Where's 70?
0:34:59 > 0:35:03At £65 only. Any advance on 65?
0:35:03 > 0:35:0665. That's not so good.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08Could be worse, though. Minus £20.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11Well done, Jonathan. Good. Now, your second one.
0:35:11 > 0:35:15The crystal glass silver-topped scent bottle with a screw stopper.
0:35:15 > 0:35:19I'll start at just £28. £28 bid.
0:35:19 > 0:35:20At 28. 30. 2.
0:35:21 > 0:35:2535. 38. 40. 2. 45. 48.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27And 50. 5.
0:35:27 > 0:35:3155 bid. 55. 55. With me at 55 now.
0:35:31 > 0:35:3260, anywhere else?
0:35:32 > 0:35:34At 55. Am I missing anybody?
0:35:34 > 0:35:36At 55. And 60. 5.
0:35:36 > 0:35:40Yes? 70 and I'm out. 70. It's now in the room at 70.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Any advance on £70?
0:35:42 > 0:35:4470 takes that, thank you.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46That's absolutely super, isn't it?
0:35:46 > 0:35:50£170. That's plus £25.
0:35:51 > 0:35:56Lot 222. We have the medina turquoise ground lugged vase, there.
0:35:56 > 0:35:57Little bit of damage.
0:35:57 > 0:36:01Interest shown. High start at £12(!)
0:36:01 > 0:36:03£12 bid on the medina. At 12.
0:36:03 > 0:36:0515. 18. 20. 2.
0:36:05 > 0:36:0925. 28.
0:36:09 > 0:36:10That is my item(?)
0:36:10 > 0:36:12It's exciting. 30 bid.
0:36:12 > 0:36:1732. You'll regret it. 35. A new bid at 38, with me.
0:36:17 > 0:36:1940 and I'm out. 40.
0:36:19 > 0:36:20Gentleman's bid, 40.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22I'll take 2. 42, new bidder.
0:36:22 > 0:36:2445. 48.
0:36:24 > 0:36:2548 is further back.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27At 48. You coming back, madam?
0:36:27 > 0:36:29At £48. At 48.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32At 48 further back and selling...
0:36:32 > 0:36:37Well, isn't that brilliant? That's plus £36.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39You've tripled your money.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43That is really good. So, £36. You were £5 up before.
0:36:43 > 0:36:47You are plus £41. How good is that?
0:36:47 > 0:36:49It's marvellous. Now...
0:36:49 > 0:36:56- Make a decision on your fish.- You can bank the £41, yes, or you could go with the fish which costs £35.
0:36:57 > 0:37:00Are you going to go with the bonus buy or not? Quickly.
0:37:00 > 0:37:04- No.- No. No. That's the decision. You're with that, Richard?
0:37:04 > 0:37:06I support her wholeheartedly.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Right. We have support here.
0:37:08 > 0:37:10And we are not going with the bonus buy.
0:37:10 > 0:37:14- But we're going to sell it anyway. - Yes.- And here it comes.- You hope.
0:37:14 > 0:37:15Lot 226.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19This we have catalogued as a composition of a roach.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21Make up your own mind. I don't think it's as old
0:37:21 > 0:37:22as it's purporting to be.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25As you see it. Decorative item. Start me at 20.
0:37:25 > 0:37:30£20, then. 20 bid. Thank you. 20, I have. Straight in at 20.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32I'll take 2. For nothing, at 20.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Good piece of fish there. 20.
0:37:34 > 0:37:38For 20 only. Any advance on £20...?
0:37:38 > 0:37:41- £20.- OK. Well, there we go.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43Minus £15.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45I think our decision was...
0:37:45 > 0:37:48- Well done. Well done. - Even if I do say so myself.- OK.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- I built you up for that.- Well done.
0:37:50 > 0:37:54You banked your £41 and you have hung on to your £41,
0:37:54 > 0:37:58which could be a winning score, but don't tell the Blues, all right?
0:37:58 > 0:38:00When you see the Blues, don't mention...
0:38:00 > 0:38:02I'm just happy that we're in credit.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11So, do you know how the Reds got on?
0:38:11 > 0:38:13- I have no idea. - You didn't talk to them?
0:38:13 > 0:38:15- No. No. They wished us good luck. - Did they?
0:38:15 > 0:38:21Well, that's very gentleman and ladylike to do that. Rather typical, I think, yes.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24First lot up is the flag and here it comes.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Good luck to you.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29Lot 245 now. The union flag here,
0:38:29 > 0:38:35with a provenance linked, apparently, to the Falklands War in HMS Active.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37I have interest on the sheet shown.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40And I start here at £12. £12.
0:38:40 > 0:38:42Bid at 12. £12, I have.
0:38:42 > 0:38:48£12. 15. 18. 20. 22. 25. 28. And 30. 2.
0:38:48 > 0:38:4935 and 38. 40. 42.
0:38:49 > 0:38:5145 and I'm out.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53At £45. Am I missing anybody?
0:38:53 > 0:38:55At £45. Are you all done...?
0:38:56 > 0:38:59- Oh, no!- £45. That's bad luck.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01- Oh, dear!- That's five off 50. You're minus £25.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02- Yeah.- Oh, dear.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05Now, your cane, Gary.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09We have the late Victorian ebonised cane with silver top.
0:39:09 > 0:39:10Start me at 50.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12£50 on the cane.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15An elegant piece there at £50, with its silver top.
0:39:15 > 0:39:1830, I'll take, surely, to start.
0:39:18 > 0:39:2130 bid, sir. Thank you. 30, I have, I'll take 2.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22It's £30 only.
0:39:22 > 0:39:2732. 35. 38. 40. 2. 45.
0:39:27 > 0:39:3148. And 50. 5. 55 in the back corner.
0:39:31 > 0:39:3360, new bidder.
0:39:33 > 0:39:3665. And 70. 70, with the lady.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39Both gentlemen are out. It's 70 at the front now.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41I'll take 5 again. At 70.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43It's a front bid. Any advance?
0:39:44 > 0:39:45£70. Thank you.
0:39:45 > 0:39:51That is plus £13...which means, overall, you're minus £12 still.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Now, your jug.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Lot 247.
0:39:55 > 0:39:59We have a 19th-century Staffordshire pottery farmer's arms jug.
0:39:59 > 0:40:01Dedicated to John and Ruth Wild.
0:40:01 > 0:40:0450 to start. £50.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07Anybody in? Come on. 30's a low start here.
0:40:07 > 0:40:0830, going backwards. 32.
0:40:08 > 0:40:1035. 38. And 40. And 2.
0:40:10 > 0:40:1445. 48. And 50. 5.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16Come on, one more.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Where's Mr and Mrs Wild?
0:40:18 > 0:40:1955 at the front. 60?
0:40:19 > 0:40:21- Come on.- At 55, now. Where's 60?
0:40:21 > 0:40:24At 55, all done...?
0:40:24 > 0:40:27- Dear, oh, dear. - I could just cry about that.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30£55. You made a £5 profit on it.
0:40:30 > 0:40:32There's nothing the matter with that,
0:40:32 > 0:40:34but you are still minus £7.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37How can that be minus £7?
0:40:37 > 0:40:40But there you go. It's minus £7.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43We can't be miserable. What are you going to do about the baby's bath?
0:40:43 > 0:40:46- Shall we go for it? - Yeah, what have we got to lose?
0:40:46 > 0:40:50- I don't know so much, cos minus £7 could be a winning score.- Could be.
0:40:50 > 0:40:54- All right?- Let's go. Let's go. - We're going.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Yeah? Gary, you happy with this?
0:40:56 > 0:40:57Yeah. Definitely.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59We're going with the bonus buy. Here it comes.
0:40:59 > 0:41:03Lot 251. The unusual Chinese softwood painted baby's bath.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07Start me at £30, for this.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10£20. Come on. £20 on this. 10 bid only.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13At 10 bid only. 10 I have. I'll take 12. 12. 15.
0:41:13 > 0:41:1618. 20. 2?
0:41:16 > 0:41:20No. 20 above. At 20 above. I've lost the gentleman.
0:41:20 > 0:41:2322, new bidder. 22 is now in blue.
0:41:23 > 0:41:27I've lost you above. Any advance on £22?
0:41:27 > 0:41:33£22. I'm afraid you've accumulated another £18 worth of debt,
0:41:33 > 0:41:38which means, overall, you are minus £25. Don't despair, though.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40- It could be a winning score. - Yes, yes.
0:41:40 > 0:41:41You don't know how the Reds got on
0:41:41 > 0:41:43and all will be revealed in a moment.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53Swings and roundabouts, eh? You chaps been talking to one another?
0:41:53 > 0:41:57No communication, so you don't know who's ahead or who's behind?
0:41:57 > 0:42:00- No.- No. Well, I have to reveal
0:42:00 > 0:42:04that the team behind by quite a chalk are the Blues.
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Oh!
0:42:07 > 0:42:09LAUGHTER
0:42:09 > 0:42:10Sorry.
0:42:11 > 0:42:16You guys have been really unlucky, because you were going to be walking on air today, right?
0:42:16 > 0:42:21Actually, curiously enough, as it's turned out, it's finished up as being minus £25.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24Now, that's no fault of yours or the goods,
0:42:24 > 0:42:26it's just the way it works sometimes.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29And we've loved having you on the programme, though.
0:42:29 > 0:42:33We think you're like two peas in a pod, you two, father and daughter.
