0:00:07 > 0:00:11So, today we've got two glamorous girls, two hairy blokes,
0:00:11 > 0:00:13a couple of savvy experts and me.
0:00:13 > 0:00:17That can only mean one thing... let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:40 > 0:00:46Today we're in the Kent Showground in, believe or not, Kent!
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Whilst we're still in the UK, today's programme has a distinctly European flavour.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53I don't suppose these euros will be any good here.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55Excuse me, do you take Euros?
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Oink, oink.
0:01:01 > 0:01:07We've got a Red Team and a Blue Team, aided by experts.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09It's a bit of a race against time, this.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15They each get £300 and an hour to buy three objects to take off to auction.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Now, if they make a profit when they get to auction, they get to keep it.
0:01:19 > 0:01:23If they don't make a profit, they'll probably go home, empty-handed.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24Look out! Whoa!
0:01:24 > 0:01:26CRUNCHING AND SMASHING
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Today we have two teams of relatives.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36For the Reds, we have Krista and Margaret, whose husbands are cousins,
0:01:36 > 0:01:39and for the Blues, we have brothers, Lech and Slav.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41ALL: Hello, Tim!
0:01:41 > 0:01:45How lovely! Now, Krista, where were you originally from?
0:01:45 > 0:01:50- I'm from Germany.- And why are you here?- Well, I came to England to learn the language.
0:01:50 > 0:01:56- Yes?- And the second day I came here, I met my husband and I've been with him ever since.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Well, isn't that lovely! Now, you've got lots of hobbies?
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- Yep.- And I'm interested in your hobby which is scuba diving.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06- Tell us about that.- I used to do it. I don't do it now so much.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09So whereabouts have you been diving then, actually?
0:02:09 > 0:02:13In Florida and in the Red Sea and in England, various places.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15You can go scuba diving in England?
0:02:15 > 0:02:20- You can't see anything and it's terribly cold?- No, you can't, this is very true.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25- So, Margaret, you're retired? - I am.- But what did you do before you retired?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Oh, various things in my past.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30I've worked in a bank, which was exceedingly interesting(!)
0:02:30 > 0:02:34I've worked with my husband on the farm. We ran a small business for a while,
0:02:34 > 0:02:41and latterly, the last few years I worked for the local county newspaper, the Kent Messenger.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44What sort of items are you going to be looking out for today?
0:02:44 > 0:02:50Well, I quite like cut glass or silver or something that catches my eye, really.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55- I've nothing specific in mind. - So you're quite a magpie!- Ahh!
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Anyway, very good luck! Now, for these rather tall boys.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Slav and Lech, they're unusual names. Where are you from originally, you chaps?
0:03:03 > 0:03:07We're from Poland, second generation Polish stock.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12- And Slav, what do you get up to? - I'm a student, doing a Masters in Chinese Studies.- Are you?
0:03:12 > 0:03:16It says here you're 26 years of age and still a student?
0:03:16 > 0:03:20- Gladly so, gladly so! - What was your first degree in?
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I studied finance in Nottingham
0:03:22 > 0:03:26and I started working a bit in accountancy work after that
0:03:26 > 0:03:28and it didn't really work out.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Eventually a friend of mine who was working in Shanghai
0:03:31 > 0:03:35called me and said he was having a wonderful time there and I spent three great years.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Did you? Three years in Shanghai? - That's right.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Now, Lech, you're also a student. What are you studying?
0:03:41 > 0:03:45I'm doing Politics and International Relations at Manchester University,
0:03:45 > 0:03:46the good one, not ManMet.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- HE LAUGHS - I see!
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Now when you're not working hard at university,
0:03:50 > 0:03:53what do you like to get up to?
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Well, I'm into sort of current affairs, fitness training and whenever possible, chess.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Especially for the chess when I was younger,
0:04:00 > 0:04:05my school won a tournament, the National Tournament, the under-11s Bishop Challoner,
0:04:05 > 0:04:09and that kind of developed into a more serious hobby.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12- Tell us about the championship when you had a problem?- A problem?
0:04:12 > 0:04:18Oh, about two, three months ago, there was a tournament at the Manchester City Stadium.
0:04:18 > 0:04:24They'd won four matches and I got disqualified because I made a move with my left hand,
0:04:24 > 0:04:27but I pushed the stop clock with my right
0:04:27 > 0:04:31and that' against chess protocol, so unfortunately, I lost the match.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35There was a bit of a verbal exchange and, unfortunately, the adjudicator heard
0:04:35 > 0:04:41and I think I'm the only person to be expelled from a chess tournament for "intolerable behaviour".
0:04:41 > 0:04:47Ahh. Now, you girls, do you think you're going to be able to teach these boys a trick or two, or not?
0:04:47 > 0:04:49- Ooh, I don't know.- think we might.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54Now, the money moment, the moment you've been waiting for. Your £300 a piece, here's your £300.
0:04:54 > 0:05:00You know the rules, your experts await and off you go, and very, very, very good luck.
0:05:00 > 0:05:07So, both teams full of the spirit of adventure, but will they be any good at seeking out those bargains?
0:05:14 > 0:05:19Trawling the stalls for the Reds is James Braxton.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Swotting up on her stuff for the Blues is Kate Bliss.
0:05:27 > 0:05:32For one hour only, our experts will share their pearls of antiques wisdom
0:05:32 > 0:05:37with their teams to help them find three of the best buys around.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Probably not for us. - Definitely not for us!
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- James?- Where's Lech gone?
0:05:46 > 0:05:50Could the Blues have earmarked a potential item already?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Where's Lech?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55May we see one of the bookmarks, please, sir?
0:05:55 > 0:05:58I've got my glass here. Thank you. Do you know what this is?
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- Mini... - For very small pieces of cake?
0:06:01 > 0:06:06Well, it's actually a little bookmark that sits on the page.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09On the back of here, we've got silver hallmarks.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13- Sorry?- It's 1876.- 1876?
0:06:13 > 0:06:17So it's a nice Victorian one, OK, and the marks are still really clear on there.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22- Do you think the handle was original?- I would have thought so. - See, I think that's really sweet.
0:06:22 > 0:06:28You've got Victorian silver, with a lovely little sort of spiral-turned handle there.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- That's very nice, quite luxurious.- Elegant.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35It's quite a good thing to buy as a present for somebody.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38It's a little, affordable piece of Victorian silver, if you like.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41What can you do for us on that, sir?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43I've got 45. I'll need 35 on that.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45What do you think about that, guys?
0:06:45 > 0:06:49- Is it all right if we have a... - Yes, you have another look.
0:06:49 > 0:06:55- It's kind of funky.- Let's have the scenario side. You're reading a book, you flick out your ear,
0:06:55 > 0:06:59your trusty page-splitter and put it in.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02That's a nice item that you've come to, yes.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05If you think about it, 1876, that's way over 100 years old.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- Yep.- I'm sold.
0:07:08 > 0:07:13- 26?- 28.- 28? That seems a fair price.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15- Happy?- Very. - I'd be very happy with that.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17- Thank you very much. - Thank you very much.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20That was quick work, chaps.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23OK, if you want to get a picture, we'll look for a picture.
0:07:23 > 0:07:30With their first item in the bag and 50 minutes of looking time left, it could be a cruise for the Blues.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32That hasn't got any signature on it at all.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35If you look at her features, finely painted. Not your sort of thing?
0:07:35 > 0:07:39I like it, but, it'd be better if she was nude!
0:07:39 > 0:07:41How are those Reds getting on?
0:07:41 > 0:07:45- Is this Chinese or something? - It is Chinese.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50What I was looking at is the amount of detail because these are founded,
0:07:50 > 0:07:53you know, they're cast and then they have to be finished.
0:07:53 > 0:07:59This is obviously the tattoos here and he's playing sort of football...
0:07:59 > 0:08:00Football, yes.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03But that's definitely got some age.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05It's the figure itself I rather like.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09- It's got some movement, hasn't it? - Yes.- It has movement, yes.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12I think somebody has brought it back from their travels.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15But would it go in England, do you think? Would it go here?
0:08:15 > 0:08:19- Would we be able to sell it?- Yeah. I think it's quite a bizarre thing.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24- There's a lot of people collect oriental art.- What do you think? - It's an attractive piece.- Yeah.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Shall we go for this one?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28- Let's see what he can do. - See what we can get.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32After some brief negotiations, they settled on £45.
0:08:32 > 0:08:38Huh! Will the Blues stay ahead of the game or are the Reds about to lead the way?
0:08:38 > 0:08:40- Inspiration, James.- Don't worry.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- You wanted to buy a nude picture? - We did indeed!- Absolutely!
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- And I've found you one!- Fantastic!
0:08:46 > 0:08:47- This way!- Let's check it out!
0:08:47 > 0:08:49- Too much?- Far too much, really.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- It's brand new.- No use at all.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55This is plastic.
0:09:00 > 0:09:05- It's bizarre. You'll find one stall that reflects what you really want to buy...- That you like, yes...
0:09:05 > 0:09:08..And you'll buy two items from it.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12What's caught Kate's eye is a picture by Italian-born artist, Franco Matania.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16- Wow!- OK.- Wow! - What do you think of her?
0:09:16 > 0:09:21- Does she tick the box?- She is what we're looking for.- Exactly!
0:09:21 > 0:09:25She is actually really nicely delineated.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- He's got the anatomy beautifully. - Yes.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30He's got her collarbones really well.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32He's got the breasts nicely,
0:09:32 > 0:09:35- even a hint of her ribs underneath. - Very accentuated.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- Yeah, it is, isn't it?- It is.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39It's just striking when you look at it!
0:09:39 > 0:09:46Her face is also, um... Obviously, she's pretty, but she's masculine as well.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47It's an interesting face.
0:09:47 > 0:09:53- I like that. When I woke up today, I thought, "I hope I find one of those."- Indeed.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55What was the price for that? Did you enquire?
0:09:55 > 0:10:01- Right, well, the price tag is... Have a little look. £140.- OK.
0:10:01 > 0:10:06Now, I think at auction...
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- I could see her making £100, certainly.- Yes.
0:10:09 > 0:10:14But the lower price we can get that's reasonable, the more chance we've got of making a profit,
0:10:14 > 0:10:17so why don't we have a word with our stallholder?
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Excuse me, madam, what's your best price on this?- £100.- 100?
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- What do you think, guys? - 100 sounds fair.- Do you think?
0:10:24 > 0:10:28- For what we are intending to purchase, that sounds good.- Hmm.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33Could you do 80 for us at a push, madam? No? No.
0:10:33 > 0:10:3795? For cash?!
0:10:37 > 0:10:40100? Well, 100 is fair enough. That's what the lady says.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43What do you think? Are you happy with that?
0:10:43 > 0:10:48- Very, very happy.- I think... I think we could get lucky with this one.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50I think it is a bit of a gamble
0:10:50 > 0:10:54- but with luck, the right person might be there on the day. - Fantastic.- Excellent.
0:10:54 > 0:10:59- Are you happy?- Let's do it. - Let's do it.- OK, let's do the deal. ..Thank you very much.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03Well, that took long enough. Their searching seems to have paid off,
0:11:03 > 0:11:07but with 15 minutes to go, they're going to have to get a spurt on!
0:11:07 > 0:11:11At the end of the day, whatever money is left over
0:11:11 > 0:11:16is given to their experts to go and find something that we call a "bonus buy".
0:11:16 > 0:11:20The expert then frantically ferrets round the fair, trying to find
0:11:20 > 0:11:23something that will make a profit for the team later at auction.
0:11:23 > 0:11:28If they go with it, then it can add to their accumulation,
0:11:28 > 0:11:31otherwise, it's just a question of diminishing returns.
0:11:32 > 0:11:39There's always something that catches my eye, and today I've spotted something very unusual.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Have a look at this. Look what I've found!
0:11:42 > 0:11:46Is that not the most extraordinary picture?
0:11:46 > 0:11:48What is it?
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Well, it's a watercolour.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52It's an original watercolour
0:11:52 > 0:11:57painted by this man, LR Cooke, in November 1860.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59But what's it a picture of?
0:11:59 > 0:12:03Well, it's an internal organ for certain.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Slight hint - men don't have them.
0:12:06 > 0:12:12Got it? It's an ovary, but actually the detail as to whether this is a correct and accurate drawing
0:12:12 > 0:12:18of what does go on inside an ovary, I wouldn't have the faintest idea.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22What I like about it, though, is the fact that it's been beautifully painted
0:12:22 > 0:12:28and all these surfaces that have got these little pink lines are, of course, blood vessels.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33I have a funny feeling that, inside an ovary,
0:12:33 > 0:12:37actually, the woman doesn't produce
0:12:37 > 0:12:41perfectly formed rather hard-boiled-looking eggs.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45All I can say to you is that this is a genuine watercolour,
0:12:45 > 0:12:48it dates from that period and I think it's very rare,
0:12:48 > 0:12:53and if this picture was to be sold on, almost certainly
0:12:53 > 0:12:55the collector at the end of the day
0:12:55 > 0:12:57would be from the medical profession.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00The other thing about it that's lovely is the price.
0:13:00 > 0:13:05The thing could be yours, on a stall down the road, for £120.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Is that a lot of money? Not really!
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Back inside, both our teams are starting to feel the pressure,
0:13:12 > 0:13:17especially the Reds, who still have two items to buy.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21Ten minutes left and we've only bought one item.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- Come on, we haven't got time. - We'll still lose money on it.- OK.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28I think we should walk very smartly up this row.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31If you see something like that, don't even bother to pick it up.
0:13:31 > 0:13:35With the minutes ticking, the Reds make a bee-line for a shiny stall.
0:13:35 > 0:13:40You see you get something like that and this cake basket is plated.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42It's got a nice shape to it, hasn't it?
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Sort of slightly lobed, isn't it? Melon-y shaped.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49And what lifts it slightly is this crest,
0:13:49 > 0:13:53so it was made for somebody semi-important.
0:13:53 > 0:13:54It's a nicely made bit of plate,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57but plate isn't doing terribly well at the moment.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- No. No.- I quite like those. - Yes, they are nice.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- What about that?- What have you found? We might be able to buy our two items on this stall.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08The three bits of French silver you can have for 100.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11So they're French silver, so they haven't got English hallmarks.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15And they are very pretty. Very, very decorative.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18I like the way that's got the stopper as well.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22It's still there, and that's probably for eau de toilette, maybe.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24You mean toilet water?
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Toilet water, toilet water, straight from the bowl!
0:14:28 > 0:14:31- Bog!- Now, I'll put in that.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- But that's nice. It all fits tightly.- Yeah, that's lovely.
0:14:34 > 0:14:40And have a look for condition. Don't look because your eyes can deceive you -
0:14:40 > 0:14:42feel it, feel it, OK?
0:14:42 > 0:14:43And does it fight tightly?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46- Yes, it does. - So...- That's quite a nice item.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50- Isn't it?- I like that one, yes. - And let's see that one.- That one.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Very nice.- They're lovely. - So it just needs a stopper in there.
0:14:53 > 0:14:57Come on, guys, you're going to have to hurry up!
0:14:57 > 0:14:59That does look...
0:14:59 > 0:15:02No, boys, put it down!
0:15:02 > 0:15:03Could you do that for 40?
0:15:03 > 0:15:06No, sorry, it's less than I paid for it.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- OK.- You can have it for 50, but that's the best.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13- What do you think?- Could you do 95 on that and 45 on that?
0:15:13 > 0:15:15I'm sorry, I can't do that.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19- OK, that's the best, so what do you think?- I think they're good.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22- £100 for this?- Yes. - £50 for this?- OK, yeah.- Done.
0:15:22 > 0:15:27- You don't want a horrible plated kettle for 20, do you?- No, thank you.
0:15:27 > 0:15:34Our James must be psychic! Just like he predicted, the girls bought two items from one stall.
0:15:34 > 0:15:39With just five minutes remaining, I think the Blues might need a hand.
0:15:39 > 0:15:44Luck money, bless your heart! See, that's the way to do it. Done!
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- Thank you very much indeed. - You're more than welcome.
0:15:47 > 0:15:52I don't know much about it but it's got Tim's backing. We're going to have to get in there!
0:15:52 > 0:15:54You say you don't know much about it, right?
0:15:54 > 0:15:58I don't know so much about it. All I know is that that is an icon.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02- Is that not an icon? Off a belter of a car!- You bet it is!
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Now, before the war, if you could have possibly owned an American car,
0:16:06 > 0:16:11you would have hit the golden load, right? You were an "it" person.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15They were enormous, those Cadillacs, Pontiacs...
0:16:15 > 0:16:17- Absolutely!- From a great period.
0:16:17 > 0:16:22It says "speed", but it also says "elegance", which we don't often have together these days, do we?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- We don't. Go and have a drill. - Awesome!
0:16:25 > 0:16:28What a great buy, even if I do say so myself!
0:16:28 > 0:16:31I think, for 20 quid, that's a jolly good buy,
0:16:31 > 0:16:36- and I reckon we ought to reimburse Tim and say that's our third item. What do you think?- 100%.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40This is... If you've got masculine issues, having this on your car
0:16:40 > 0:16:43will certainly help attract the ladies, put it that way.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49HE SPEAKS POLISH
0:16:49 > 0:16:53HE SPEAKS GERMAN
0:16:53 > 0:16:57Which for those of us who clearly don't speak Polish or German,
0:16:57 > 0:17:01means "time's up". Let's recap on what the Reds bought.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05The Reds kicked off to a steady start.
0:17:05 > 0:17:10After 15 minutes they bought the Burmese bronze figure for £45.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13With a large chunk of their time gone, the silver fruit basket
0:17:13 > 0:17:16took a small bite out of their budget at £50.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19And with pressure mounting, they went for a double whammy
0:17:19 > 0:17:26and bought the French silver bottles from the same stall. They cost £100.
0:17:26 > 0:17:31- Now, did you have a good time shopping?- We certainly did. - Wonderful!- Very interesting.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- Now, Krista, which is your favourite piece?- The silver bowl.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37The silver bowl. What about you, Mags?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39I think possibly the dressing table set.
0:17:39 > 0:17:44- Dressing table set. Which piece will bring the biggest profit? - Yeah, the silver bowl.
0:17:44 > 0:17:50- The silver bowl.- Your predictions. So anyway, you spent a magnificent £195, that's great.
0:17:50 > 0:17:55I'd like £105 of leftover lolly going straight to James Braxton for the bonus buy.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58Now, Jimmy, how is it?
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Yeah, very good, very good. It was a close-run thing.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04We bought our last two items with about two minutes to spare.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07With care and consideration?
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Care and consideration, and luck that we found a stall!
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Have you got any idea what you'll spend your 105 on?
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Yes. I think it will be something silvery.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18There's a hint, girls. Off you go, James, and good luck.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Let's remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:18:21 > 0:18:26The Victorian bookmark appealed to those studious boys,
0:18:26 > 0:18:28and what a quick buy it was!
0:18:28 > 0:18:29They agreed on £28.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32The boys knew exactly what they were looking for
0:18:32 > 0:18:35and after a furious 30 minutes of hunting, they found her.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38The painting set them back £100.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43With five minutes to go, and a helping hand from yours truly,
0:18:43 > 0:18:46they got the chrome car mascot for a steal, at £20.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50- Did you have a good time? - Fantastic.- Fantastic.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54- You're right up there, aren't you? - Tops.- Which is your favourite piece?
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Undoubtedly the mascot.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59OUR mascot!
0:18:59 > 0:19:02- And which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?- The mascot.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- Do you agree with that, Lech?- 100%.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Isn't it lovely having two brothers welded from the hip?!
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Right, you spent £148, which is vaguely miserable.
0:19:10 > 0:19:15And we'll have £152 of leftover lolly. There you go, Kate.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- Thank you.- Did you have a good time with these boys?
0:19:18 > 0:19:22We were under pressure, weren't we? It wasn't really a sedate gambol round the fair.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26- But you succeeded, didn't you?- I think we got it in the bag in the end.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Yes. What are you going to do with all that cash?
0:19:28 > 0:19:32I'm going to buy something arty. I think these are arty fellows.
0:19:32 > 0:19:36You trained as an accountant but I think he has a strong arty streak.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Very good luck with that, Kate. Splendid.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43Now if you, like our teams today, have a sense of adventure,
0:19:43 > 0:19:48then you had better leg it with me because I'm going on safari.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55HE SNARLS
0:19:55 > 0:20:01I'm at the Powell Cotton Museum at Birchington in Kent.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05Inside the museum here is an incredibly important collection.
0:20:05 > 0:20:11Now, at first glance, you might not think this collection was particularly important
0:20:11 > 0:20:17but it's the DNA link that has proved vital in conservation work over the past couple of decades.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Between 1887 and 1939,
0:20:26 > 0:20:31Major Powell Cotton went on no less than 28 expeditions.
0:20:31 > 0:20:36He spent in total 26 years in Africa gathering data.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40One of his trips lasted more than four years.
0:20:43 > 0:20:48Big-game hunting, of course, was incredibly popular during the Victorian era,
0:20:48 > 0:20:55but what got Major Powell Cotton going was not the sport of hunting, but the science.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59Now this folded brown parcel is actually an animal skin.
0:20:59 > 0:21:05It was once around a species called the Lesser Kudu
0:21:05 > 0:21:12and it is one of 6,000 skins that are in the museum here at Quex.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15How do we know so much about this particular skin?
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Well, attached is a cloth label.
0:21:18 > 0:21:24It tells us that this is the Lesser Kudu. It was shot in Tanganyika.
0:21:24 > 0:21:32He gives the latitude and longitude of exactly the spot that it died.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It's got a little sign that says that it's a male,
0:21:35 > 0:21:38it was shot by Mrs Powell Cotton
0:21:38 > 0:21:41and it's number 92.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44As a double security measure,
0:21:44 > 0:21:50inside here we've got a brass label which has got an ID number on it.
0:21:50 > 0:21:55So, if the cloth label fell off, you'd always be able to refer to that
0:21:55 > 0:21:58and that brass label has been made out of a cartridge case,
0:21:58 > 0:22:05the cartridge case perhaps from the bullet that was used to fell this beast.
0:22:09 > 0:22:13Believe it or not, I've come to Angola.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Eat your heart out, David Attenborough!
0:22:15 > 0:22:20In Angola, you might expect to see one of these fellows.
0:22:20 > 0:22:25This is a giant sable, recognisable because it's on the Angolan currency
0:22:25 > 0:22:33and on their stamps but, after the civil war, it was thought that the Giant Sable had become extinct.
0:22:33 > 0:22:39Actually, they found an example and wanted to start a breeding programme, and to do that,
0:22:39 > 0:22:44they needed to research the DNA from some unadulterated examples,
0:22:44 > 0:22:51including this fellow behind me, which Powell Cotton had shot in 1921.
0:22:51 > 0:22:58As a result of the tests, the breeding programme went ahead and all is doing well.
0:22:58 > 0:23:03The big question is today, will all be well for our teams at the auction,
0:23:03 > 0:23:05or are they facing extinction?
0:23:17 > 0:23:21So, we've moseyed south for half an hour from Detling to Canterbury,
0:23:21 > 0:23:25to Canterbury Auction Galleries with our auctioneer today, Michael Roberts.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- How are you?- Very well, thank you.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33The Red Team, Margaret and Krista, their first item is this Burmese footie fellow here.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Yeah.- So what do you make of him?
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Well, it's a nicely cast figure.
0:23:38 > 0:23:41It's not football, it's actually a Buddhist game called chinlone.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43- Chinlone?- They play with a rattan ball,
0:23:43 > 0:23:49and they keep the ball in the air and you're awarded on your skill and being able to keep the game going.
0:23:49 > 0:23:55- It is a nicely cast bronze, isn't it? - Yeah, yeah.- Well, well done for doing the research on that.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59So what's this Burmese ritual dancer worth, then?
0:23:59 > 0:24:06- We're going to try him at £70 to £100.- 70 to 100?- Yeah.- They only paid £45.- That's all right, then.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09Now that is a really good estimate, Mike.
0:24:09 > 0:24:16Next is this fruit bowl in plate, not quite as exciting an object, I suspect?
0:24:16 > 0:24:22Not really. It's an old item, but it's old-fashioned now in terms of people don't really use them much.
0:24:22 > 0:24:29- No.- Nice to have the silver button in the middle, but it's a redundant item on most people's tea table.
0:24:29 > 0:24:33A shame because it's in good condition and very decorative.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36- So what do you think it's worth, Mike?- £40 to £60.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- OK. Well, they only paid £50. - Fine, just the job, yeah.
0:24:39 > 0:24:44- What about these dressing table bottles?- Well, the little one,
0:24:44 > 0:24:49which is the lead item, the French one there, has a guarantee mark on the side
0:24:49 > 0:24:53to say it is French. It's superb engraving cutting on the side,
0:24:53 > 0:24:58but it probably would have come out of a dressing case.
0:24:58 > 0:25:03It lacks its stopper and again, similar to the basket, it's a redundant-type item.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06With the other couple, we've estimated them at £60 to £80.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09- 60 to 80 for the lot?- Yeah. - Well, they paid £100.- Right...
0:25:09 > 0:25:16So maybe the profit they're going to make on this Burmese bloke is going to evaporate in the scent bottle!
0:25:16 > 0:25:21Anyway, one way or the other, they could well need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Well, you girls, you spent £195.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27You left James £105 of leftover lolly for the bonus buy.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29What's the bonus buy, James?
0:25:29 > 0:25:31- Here you are.- Aah!
0:25:31 > 0:25:38A lovely, luxury good. An Asprey's box, white onyx, nice malachite little thumb-piece there...
0:25:38 > 0:25:45- How much did you pay for it?- £80. - Will we make money on it?- Will it make us a profit?- I don't know.
0:25:45 > 0:25:51- What would you put in it? - Originally it was for cigarettes. - Very small cigarettes?
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Yeah, they were quite small cigarettes,
0:25:53 > 0:25:58but it's a lovely, beautifully made item and it's...
0:25:58 > 0:26:01- And Asprey's are quite well-known, aren't they?- They are.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06- I've seen stuff of theirs. - I'm sure they'd love your comments!
0:26:06 > 0:26:09They're very well-known! Everybody will buy this!
0:26:09 > 0:26:14On that happy note, why don't we find out from the auctioneer what he thinks.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18- Well, that's cute, isn't it? Very clean.- It is.
0:26:18 > 0:26:25- It's a lovely gent's accessory. It's by a fabulous maker, Asprey, or retailer, rather.- Yeah, good.
0:26:25 > 0:26:32It's a good, clean box, you don't have to be a smoker to use it, you can put your studs, cufflinks in it.
0:26:32 > 0:26:40- Anyway, James Braxton rates it. What's your estimate?- £50 to £70. - Really? He paid 80!- Oh, dear.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44- He might have just overdone it, but you never know.- No, no.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47- It's a perfectly nice thing.- Sure. - Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:26:47 > 0:26:53Now, the Blues, Lech and Slav. Their first item is this little bookmark,
0:26:53 > 0:26:56which was picked by Kate.
0:26:56 > 0:27:01I don't know if you've been able to decipher these tiny little hallmarks.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Indeed, Victorian marks, Birmingham 1876.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Oh, brilliant, brilliant!
0:27:05 > 0:27:10But overall, it's kind of an insignificant thing, really.
0:27:10 > 0:27:14Yeah, but, you know, size isn't everything, is it?
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- I know people do collect these bookmarks.- Yeah, yeah.
0:27:16 > 0:27:23- And actually, if you're a reader, they are quite handy little things to have in your bedside book.- Yeah.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26So what do we think it might be worth?
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Well, I'm thinking between £15 and £20.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31- OK, fine. £28 Kate paid. - OK, fine.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't get between 30 and 40, frankly.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Yeah, I hope so, yeah.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39So what about this... I suppose it is a woman, is it?
0:27:39 > 0:27:43Well, it's by a well-known artist, a family of artists, Matania.
0:27:43 > 0:27:50I suppose it's nicely done, perhaps to cater for all tastes, maybe.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52Yes. So what's your estimate on it?
0:27:52 > 0:27:55£80 to £120.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57- 80 to 120?- Yep.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00Fine, well, Kate fancied it, she paid £100. Good.
0:28:00 > 0:28:05Next is the car mascot. Now I've got a particular interest in this car mascot,
0:28:05 > 0:28:10because I happened to be about when Lech and Slav were doing the necessary.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14I have no idea which motor car it came off. Have you been able to find out anything about it?
0:28:14 > 0:28:18- Apparently it's from a 1954 Chrysler Type one.- Oh, great!
0:28:18 > 0:28:22But yeah, it's very decorative sort of Art Deco styling...
0:28:22 > 0:28:25- Menacing, don't you think? - I suppose it could be.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29- So what is it worth? - Well, it is pitted.- Pitted?
0:28:29 > 0:28:34The chrome has bubbled and it's a bit damaged and... Period wear, I'd say!
0:28:34 > 0:28:41- Yes, but collectors are looking for something in good condition! - It's pitted!
0:28:41 > 0:28:45So as it is, I think we're looking at sort of £30 to £50, really.
0:28:45 > 0:28:50- I'd be delighted if we get £30 to £50. We only paid £20 for it.- OK.
0:28:50 > 0:28:55So if old doo-dah up there, if that does well, and I quite fancy that bookmark,
0:28:55 > 0:29:01this team might not need their bonus buy, but just to be safe, perhaps we ought to go and have a look at it.
0:29:01 > 0:29:09So, boys, you spent £148, which means you gave Kate £152 to spend on her bonus buy. What did she spend it on?
0:29:09 > 0:29:15Now, I know that you like the female form in art,
0:29:15 > 0:29:21so, what I've got you is a rather lovely sculpture, I think.
0:29:21 > 0:29:25She is, of course, a lovely ballet dancer and she's done in resin.
0:29:25 > 0:29:29This is by a chap called Josep Bofill, his name's down here.
0:29:29 > 0:29:36He's Spanish. He was born in 1942, so this is a contemporary piece, I would say probably '60s.
0:29:36 > 0:29:42I spent £110, which is quite a lot for a bonus buy.
0:29:42 > 0:29:46- I'm going to hand it over because my arm is falling off! - Shall we take it off you?
0:29:46 > 0:29:52- It's a very elegant pose. - What do you think, Tim? - Don't ask me! My lips are sealed!
0:29:52 > 0:29:57- It's elegant.- We'll have a think about it, I think.- Yeah, definitely!
0:29:57 > 0:30:01You don't have to decide right now, just think it through, all right?
0:30:01 > 0:30:05You'll decide after the sale of your first three items,
0:30:05 > 0:30:10but right now, for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks.
0:30:10 > 0:30:15- Right, then, Michael, Josep Bofill, whoever he is.- Right. It's pretty horrible, isn't it?
0:30:15 > 0:30:19Well, I suppose Josep Bofill thought it was rather good!
0:30:19 > 0:30:24Anyway, he thought it was a nice thing to make in resin with a lump of concrete.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27What does "resin" mean - plastic?
0:30:27 > 0:30:32Pretty much, yeah. The chemical composition obviously varies but, fundamentally, that's what it is.
0:30:32 > 0:30:38The big question for us is, is this concrete and plastic jobbie going to sell?
0:30:38 > 0:30:44- Well, we've estimated it pretty lowly at sort of £20 to £30...- Yes.
0:30:44 > 0:30:48But it comes down to whether or not anyone fancies it.
0:30:48 > 0:30:50- Kate paid £110 for this object!- Ouch.
0:30:50 > 0:30:56OK? With any luck, the team won't select it when it comes to the bonus buy moment.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59- Are you our auctioneer today?- I am, yes.- Great, we're in great hands.
0:31:04 > 0:31:10If your house is already full with furniture and you want to continue collecting,
0:31:10 > 0:31:16then why not think about one or two miniatures, like this delightful little lot that I've just found.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20Here we've got five classic chairs.
0:31:20 > 0:31:25This fellow is a 16th/17th century style oak wainscot armchair,
0:31:25 > 0:31:31called wainscot because these types of chairs
0:31:31 > 0:31:36were placed against the wainscot panelling in an ancient Tudor house.
0:31:36 > 0:31:43This one is vaguely late Hepplewhite, with the pierced splat.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48This one is a burgermeister's chair, Dutch East India Company,
0:31:48 > 0:31:53always with the circular seat and always with six or eight legs.
0:31:53 > 0:32:00This fellow, he looks like a Windsor captain's armchair, from around High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire.
0:32:00 > 0:32:08And this little fellow, well he's an Austrian, Bentwood, probably made by Mr Thonet.
0:32:08 > 0:32:13We've got no less than five distinct styles of pieces of furniture,
0:32:13 > 0:32:19all made out of solid silver, hallmarked in Birmingham in 1910.
0:32:19 > 0:32:23Except there's an additional delightful feature,
0:32:23 > 0:32:26because this one is inscribed Shakespeare,
0:32:26 > 0:32:29this one is inscribed Tennyson,
0:32:29 > 0:32:32this chap Bulwer-Lytton,
0:32:32 > 0:32:34this chap Dickens
0:32:34 > 0:32:36and this chap Thackeray. So how's that?
0:32:36 > 0:32:42Well, my theory is that the Birmingham maker of these chairs
0:32:42 > 0:32:45has selected the actual chairs
0:32:45 > 0:32:52that these literary giants did their compositions and created their masterworks
0:32:52 > 0:32:57and has reduced them into miniature, in silver, as a collectable.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59How fascinating is that!
0:32:59 > 0:33:03Not only are they exquisite examples of their type in silver,
0:33:03 > 0:33:08they also have a historical and literary resonance. Marvellous!
0:33:08 > 0:33:12The other resonance they have is a cash call,
0:33:12 > 0:33:17because the estimate is £125 to £160 for all five of these
0:33:17 > 0:33:23and I have a funny feeling that they're worth nearly £100 each.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25So get your wallets out!
0:33:31 > 0:33:34So, Margaret and Krista, here we are on the edge of the auction.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37- How exciting is this?- Ooh it is! - It is!- Wonderful!
0:33:37 > 0:33:41- And have you seen such a crowd of people, it's jammed!- That's amazing!
0:33:41 > 0:33:47- Well, they've all come here to buy your items. How are you feeling, Krista, all right?- Fine. Excited!
0:33:47 > 0:33:52- What about you, Mags?- Uncontrollably excited!- Are you?- Yes. - Control yourself slightly!
0:33:52 > 0:33:57- What about you, James? Are you feeling uncontrollable? - Well, always nervous.
0:33:57 > 0:34:02A lot of responsibility on this one, but heartened - like the good old days, a full room!
0:34:02 > 0:34:05First up is the Burmese figure.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08The Burmese bronze of a man playing chinlone.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10Who will start me at £50?
0:34:10 > 0:34:16£50 I'm bid, thank you. And 5. It's 55 now, 55, 60, 5...

0:35:26 > 0:35:31- We can go out! - You've got £3 on this, right?
0:35:31 > 0:35:34What are you going to do about the Asprey's box?
0:35:34 > 0:35:38I think we probably need to bank it, James.
0:35:38 > 0:35:43OK, fine, we're not going with the bonus buy, but we're going to sell it anyway.
0:35:43 > 0:35:47Lot 31 is the white onyx square cigarette box,
0:35:47 > 0:35:51retailed by Asprey, showing for you there.
0:35:51 > 0:35:55Who'll start me at £30? Useful little box, this, £30 I'm bid.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22That is plus £5...
0:36:22 > 0:36:25which, sadly... is not your £5 profit!
0:36:25 > 0:36:29Aww, what a pity, but never mind, we're still...
0:36:29 > 0:36:34Never mind. Well done. Great taste, James, as usual.
0:36:34 > 0:36:39- Now, you have an overall profit of £3. Don't tell the Blue Team and we'll catch up later, OK?- OK.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51Next up is the group of five miniature silver armchairs,

0:37:18 > 0:37:21I hope the owner will be very happy.
0:37:29 > 0:37:34- Lech and Slav, do you know how the Reds got on?- No, they didn't give anything away on the way past.
0:37:34 > 0:37:38- Very good poker-faces! - How are you feeling yourselves?
0:37:38 > 0:37:42- I'm feeling absolutely great. - Do you feel confident?- I think we've got some interesting stuff.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45But is it going to make a big profit?
0:37:45 > 0:37:52- We want our Del-Boy moment.- Del-Boy moment!- We're going to get it!- I like that! This is full of confidence.

0:38:35 > 0:38:38Well done, Kate. Now, here comes the nude.
0:38:38 > 0:38:41..Of the lady there...

0:39:55 > 0:39:59That is a very good position to be in.
0:39:59 > 0:40:04Now, what are you going to do about the resin sculpture?
0:40:04 > 0:40:09We're only on the show once, aren't we? £42 is nothing to be sniffed at.
0:40:09 > 0:40:15- I think we should play it safe. - Do you want to play it safe? - I think we'll play it safe.
0:40:15 > 0:40:20- Are you going to play it safe? - Watch from a distance!- Quite sure? - You do what you think is right.

0:40:58 > 0:41:02Do you know something? I think you made the right decision!
0:41:02 > 0:41:04Yeah, you could say that!
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Minus £60. Well, bad luck, Kate!
0:41:06 > 0:41:09It's a very strange thing, though, isn't it?
0:41:09 > 0:41:13What would go well in one sale room or in another.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16It was a gamble, and you made the right decision! Well done, guys!
0:41:16 > 0:41:22It was a very interesting punt, though, but overall you are plus £42, so don't say a word to the Reds.
0:41:22 > 0:41:26- We will reveal all in a moment. - Right.- Fantastic!
0:41:31 > 0:41:33Well, what a happy tribe of people we've got today
0:41:33 > 0:41:40- because we've got two teams of winners. Have you had a good time, Reds?- Yeah, wonderful!- ..Blues?

0:41:44 > 0:41:47- Can't find nothing But second-hand jargon - It is...- Plain to see

0:41:51 > 0:41:55- Cos bid, or no bid - BOTH: We're here to get paid!
0:41:55 > 0:42:00Which, for a change, you are going to be paid today!
0:42:00 > 0:42:04Have you been talking to one another? Any chats about these results?
0:42:04 > 0:42:07- Absolutely no! - Well, I'm glad to hear that!
0:42:07 > 0:42:11The team with marginally less profits today are, of course,
0:42:11 > 0:42:16- the Reds, but congratulations, girls, you managed to score £3.- Wow!
0:42:16 > 0:42:19- £3 of profit. I make that a pound each, don't you, James?- Yup!
0:42:19 > 0:42:26Brilliant! Very nice profit, though, on the Asprey's box. Well done, James Braxton.
0:42:26 > 0:42:31But the victors today are the Blues, which is phenomenal, isn't it,
0:42:31 > 0:42:34- to make these profits?- Incredible! - Absolutely!
0:42:34 > 0:42:38- £27 on your bookmark, Kate? - Thank you, Kate.- Lovely...
0:42:38 > 0:42:43- Thank you.- £20 on our car mascot. That was good, wasn't it?- Nice.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45And you didn't go with the bonus buy,
0:42:45 > 0:42:49therefore you managed to ring-fence your profits of £42.
0:42:49 > 0:42:54- Here you go, boys, £42 coming your way.- Thanks, Tim.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57- And you had a great time?- Fantastic! - And you can do the rap, too!
