MUSIC: "Born To Be Wild" by Steppenwolf

0:00:020:00:04

We've got miles of antiques to explore today

0:00:040:00:07

and I'm going to need some help, so I'm going to put my foot down

0:00:070:00:10

as we go bargain hunting! Ooh!

0:00:100:00:11

# Born to be wild! #

0:00:110:00:13

Hello and welcome to Detling.

0:00:400:00:42

We're at the Kent County Showground.

0:00:420:00:44

There are literally hundreds of stalls

0:00:440:00:46

for our teams to pick over for bargains.

0:00:460:00:48

They're hard workers but will they be able to find those winning items?

0:00:480:00:54

Our teams are each given £300 and an hour to find three items which are sold later at auction.

0:00:560:01:03

The team that makes the most profit wins.

0:01:030:01:05

Easy, isn't it? Well, you would say that, wouldn't you?

0:01:050:01:09

Today, we've got Jane and Kerry, who are friends and workmates,

0:01:140:01:19

and Dave and Darren, who are mates and occasionally work together.

0:01:190:01:22

-Hello, everybody.

-Hello.

-Hi, Tim.

0:01:220:01:24

Now, you two are friends and workmates. What exactly do you do?

0:01:240:01:29

-We work for the Ambulance Service in HQ. I take the 999 calls and Jane dispatches the ambulances.

-Do you?

0:01:290:01:36

-You take those 999 calls?

-Yeah.

-That must be distressing sometimes.

0:01:360:01:39

-It can be.

-Yeah. And, Jane, how long have you been working together?

0:01:390:01:44

We've worked together for two years now.

0:01:440:01:46

We met when we started our training and we've sort of remained

0:01:460:01:49

-very good friends and work colleagues ever since.

-Brilliant.

0:01:490:01:52

-And is Kerry nice to work around?

-She's wonderful. She is our little ray of sunshine.

0:01:520:01:56

-Aw!

-We do very long hours... 12-hour shifts...

0:01:560:02:00

and you can get very low during a shift and Kerry will start singing.

0:02:000:02:05

-Will she?

-She will.

-Will she sing for us now?

0:02:050:02:07

-No.

-No? She won't sing for us now?

-No.

-No?

0:02:070:02:11

-And, Kerry, are you a collector?

-Very keen on Mary Poppins.

-Are you?

0:02:110:02:16

-Yes.

-It says here that you quote the film on a daily basis. Is that true?

0:02:160:02:20

If everyone's got the 'ump with their job, you just say,

0:02:200:02:23

"Well, in every job that must be done, there's an element of fun.

0:02:230:02:26

You find the fun and snap..." Just turn it into a game.

0:02:260:02:29

Brilliant. And, Jane, what do you collect?

0:02:290:02:32

-I collect a bit of Doulton and I'm also very fond of Beswick and Whitefriars glass.

-Are you?

0:02:320:02:38

-What particular bits of Beswick do you like?

-The flying birds.

0:02:380:02:41

-Do you?

-Yes. Coronation Street.

0:02:410:02:45

So it's not just three going up your wall?

0:02:450:02:47

No, there's rather a few more than three.

0:02:470:02:49

-A few flocks of birds?

-A few flocks of birds.

0:02:490:02:51

Brilliant. And have you got any ideas about what you're going to be looking out for?

0:02:510:02:55

-We'll have to wait and see, Tim.

-I know,

0:02:550:02:57

but there's lots available of all sorts of things, so have a great time shopping.

0:02:570:03:01

Now for the boys.

0:03:010:03:03

You both met at work, so what is it that you do?

0:03:030:03:06

-We're scaffolders, Tim.

-Scaffolders?

-Scaffolders, yeah.

0:03:060:03:09

So, Darren, you don't suffer from vertigo then?

0:03:090:03:12

-Not at all, Tim.

-What's the tallest structure you've ever scaffolded?

0:03:120:03:16

240ft is the tallest building I've ever been on and that was a chimney stack.

0:03:160:03:20

I was about 20 years old at the time, so it was a fair way back.

0:03:200:03:23

-And very fit.

-At the time, yeah.

0:03:230:03:25

-Well, we watch you guys at it and I tell you, it is an art form.

-Yeah.

0:03:250:03:29

Yeah. Very, very difficult.

0:03:290:03:31

You also enjoy watching the gees-gees I'm told.

0:03:310:03:34

I do like a flutter. It has been known.

0:03:340:03:36

-Had any big wins?

-I've had a few. I won't say too many, cos my wife will probably be watching, so...

0:03:360:03:41

-She'll say, "What did you do with the money?"

-More than likely. I've done pretty well at it.

0:03:410:03:46

-And you like a bit of a gamble?

-Oh, yeah, I do.

0:03:460:03:48

-Well, you'll be great at Bargain Hunt.

-Hopefully.

0:03:480:03:51

-David, you've got an accent that tells me you come from north of the border.

-Yeah.

-Whereabouts?

0:03:510:03:56

-Ayr, on the west coast of Scotland.

-But you've travelled around a bit, haven't you?

-I have.

0:03:560:04:00

I've been fortunate enough to travel around the world a bit.

0:04:000:04:03

-Where have you been?

-On a kibbutz in Israel.

0:04:030:04:05

-Have you?

-Yeah.

-Growing avocados, I bet.

-Growing avocados,

0:04:050:04:08

tomatoes, onions, cotton, watermelons.

0:04:080:04:11

-Really?

-Yeah.

-Do you collect anything at all between you?

0:04:110:04:14

I've got quite a substantial amount of fishing tackle at home.

0:04:140:04:19

Well, you never know what you're going to find out there.

0:04:190:04:22

You describe yourselves as diamonds in the rough.

0:04:220:04:25

You hoping to find any diamonds today?

0:04:250:04:28

-You never know.

-You never know.

-You never know. Anyway, it's the money moment.

0:04:280:04:31

-£300 apiece. Here you go, look. £300 coming up.

-Thank you.

0:04:310:04:36

You know the rules. Your experts await and off you go! Very, very, very good luck.

0:04:360:04:41

Well, let's hope they don't have an emergency.

0:04:410:04:44

But if they do have the need, they've always got their experts at hand.

0:04:440:04:48

Just like Mary Poppins, James Braxton is flying high for the Reds.

0:04:520:04:57

And hoping to hammer out some bargains for the Blues

0:04:570:05:00

is Kate Bliss.

0:05:000:05:01

They've only got one hour and it starts now.

0:05:010:05:05

This fair is jam packed with antiques,

0:05:050:05:07

so the teams are going to have their work cut out and James has already spotted

0:05:070:05:12

-an attractive item.

-That figure's not a bad price, cos you've got 40 on it.

0:05:120:05:16

We could probably get it for 30.

0:05:160:05:18

-Not that one, that one.

-This one?

0:05:180:05:20

But it's sculptural. It's hard-paste porcelain. It's quite big.

0:05:200:05:24

Who's it?

0:05:240:05:25

-No particular make?

-No. It's made in Vienna.

0:05:250:05:29

So "Wien" is Austria.

0:05:290:05:32

-It's worth thinking about that.

-Is it?

0:05:320:05:34

-Yeah. Get it for 30.

-Right.

0:05:340:05:37

That's quite fun. Somebody would buy that.

0:05:370:05:39

Do you like it?

0:05:390:05:41

Yeah, it's different.

0:05:410:05:45

Let's have a look round.

0:05:450:05:49

If we see something else that grabs our eye,

0:05:490:05:52

-it will give us purchasing power.

-Yeah.

-OK.

-OK. Will do.

0:05:520:05:55

I'm not sure the Reds are as keen on the figure as you, James. But what's that the Blues have found?

0:05:550:06:00

Is it a cigar?

0:06:000:06:03

-Cheap, innit?

-Oh, yeah, look.

0:06:030:06:05

Cigar mould. It's a bit wacky, isn't it?

0:06:050:06:08

Don't they roll them on virgins' knees, or thighs or whatever, isn't it? Isn't that what they do in Cuba?

0:06:080:06:14

-Yeah.

-They roll cigars on their legs.

-They used to,

0:06:140:06:16

-but I don't think they do it any more, do they?

-I'll look inside.

0:06:160:06:20

The Red team seem to have forgotten about the erotic figure and have got their eye on something else.

0:06:200:06:27

-Have you looked through them?

-No.

-Have a look through them.

0:06:270:06:30

Blimey!

0:06:300:06:33

Do I look better close up?

0:06:330:06:35

No. I prefer this view.

0:06:350:06:37

We have it at 30.

0:06:390:06:41

What do you think about that?

0:06:410:06:44

I think when you look round the place, you'll realise that that's probably not a bad deal.

0:06:440:06:49

-All right, OK.

-OK, yep.

0:06:490:06:51

Kerry likes these.

0:06:510:06:53

-They just took my eye.

-They're not expensive.

0:06:530:06:56

-How much are they?

-They're 15.

0:06:560:06:58

-15?

-Mm.

0:06:580:06:59

Cheap as chips, aren't they?

0:06:590:07:02

Paris made. Nicely done.

0:07:020:07:04

"Le Jockey Club".

0:07:040:07:07

So racing...

0:07:070:07:09

And they still work.

0:07:090:07:11

Yeah.

0:07:110:07:13

-And they've been well used, haven't they?

-Absolutely.

0:07:130:07:17

-Let's see if we can get them for a fiver.

-We can do a deal...

0:07:170:07:20

I mean, these are fairly old.

0:07:200:07:22

-It has to have some date to them.

-Yeah. They're 19th century.

0:07:220:07:25

-Yeah.

-They're nicely made. "Made in Paris".

-Yeah.

-"Jockey Club".

0:07:250:07:29

I don't think... That was probably a brand sort of name.

0:07:290:07:33

But if we buy them cheap enough...

0:07:330:07:35

-If you bought them for a fiver...

-Yeah.

0:07:350:07:37

The Reds are trying to get a good deal on the binoculars,

0:07:370:07:41

-but the Blues seem to think it's just a game.

-Anyone for tennis?

0:07:410:07:45

You could buy everything, couldn't you?

0:07:450:07:49

Horrible.

0:07:490:07:50

Just trying to be helpful.

0:07:500:07:51

Do you want to have a look in here?

0:07:510:07:53

-Let's have a look.

-Whilst the Blues are mucking about, James has got some news for the Reds.

0:07:530:07:59

I've tracked down the fellow.

0:08:000:08:01

-He says he will do them at £5.

-Yeah, brilliant.

-Do you want to go for that?

-Yeah.

-Definitely.

0:08:010:08:08

-£5.

-I don't think we can go wrong with that.

-No.

-Well, you wait till the auction!

-Yeah.

0:08:080:08:13

-Oh, that's nice. I like that.

-It's all right, innit?

-I like that.

-What have you got?

0:08:220:08:25

It's actually what we call in our world a "bubble".

0:08:250:08:28

-We call it a "bubble".

-Oh, do you?

-It's a spirit level, but we call it a bubble.

-We call it a bubble.

0:08:280:08:33

-You say, "Pass us the bubble, mate?"

-That's it.

-That's right.

0:08:330:08:36

-See, I could be your building buddy, couldn't I?

-Want a job?

-Yeah, you could do.

-I like that.

0:08:360:08:41

-Couldn't do worse than some people we know.

-It's still got the bubble.

0:08:410:08:44

-It works.

-I can see you like practical things.

-Yeah.

-What kind of wood is that?

0:08:440:08:48

Let's have a little look.

0:08:480:08:51

It's been stained, hasn't it?

0:08:510:08:52

It could be wear, couldn't it?

0:08:520:08:54

Do you know, it's been really nicely handled.

0:08:540:08:59

It's been in people's pockets and it's been handled.

0:08:590:09:02

Nice thing. I think that that may well be...difficult to tell in that light...

0:09:020:09:06

-but I think it might be a bit of rosewood, you know, guys.

-Yeah.

0:09:060:09:10

The good thing about this is that we've got the name on it.

0:09:100:09:14

It's not just any old spirit level.

0:09:140:09:16

You've got a nice name there.

0:09:160:09:18

"Lewis and Co, Sheffield".

0:09:180:09:20

-Do you know what date it would be then, Kate?

-Mm, I would say...

0:09:200:09:25

-1900.

-Yeah? That old?

0:09:250:09:27

Do you think there's a profit in it?

0:09:270:09:30

Well, we've got £15 on that.

0:09:300:09:32

It's not going to make a fortune at auction, but it's not priced very highly.

0:09:320:09:37

How much would you pay for it?

0:09:370:09:39

I'd like it for a fiver, I tell you, but...

0:09:390:09:41

Why don't we have a chat with them and see what's the best they can do.

0:09:410:09:45

You stay here. Have another look while I just go and have a chat.

0:09:450:09:49

Kate remained level headed, ha, and got the bubble for a tenner.

0:09:490:09:53

Now, I've got a small conundrum. It's not personal.

0:09:530:09:57

Today's mystery piece. What is this?

0:09:570:10:01

Well, it's made of bronze

0:10:010:10:03

and, if you look carefully,

0:10:030:10:05

round the outside it's cast with a series of archaic designs

0:10:050:10:11

which are Chinese.

0:10:110:10:12

This is a piece of bronze

0:10:120:10:14

that could have been made in China 1,000 years ago.

0:10:140:10:19

It could have been made in China 100 years ago.

0:10:190:10:23

It's got a socket and that's made to receive a wooden handle.

0:10:230:10:29

Out to about here.

0:10:290:10:31

So, the question is, what was it used for?

0:10:310:10:36

Got any ideas?

0:10:360:10:38

No idea at all?

0:10:380:10:40

OK, I'll put you out of your agony.

0:10:400:10:43

What the Chinese would do is to put charcoal inside this thing.

0:10:430:10:47

And if you look at the bottom, it's flat and extremely smooth.

0:10:470:10:52

This, ladies and gentlemen, is a Chinese iron.

0:10:520:10:57

If you wanted to iron your silk robe in China,

0:10:570:11:00

you put the hot charcoal in there, heated the whole thing up

0:11:000:11:03

and you'd smooth it over the top of the garment

0:11:030:11:07

and, hey presto, you've ironed your shirt.

0:11:070:11:10

How much then for a non-electric, Chinese iron?

0:11:120:11:16

Could be yours for 30 quid.

0:11:160:11:20

It's about...

0:11:200:11:21

two trips to launderette, I make.

0:11:210:11:24

So 15 minutes down and one item each.

0:11:260:11:29

And it looks like James is after a new hat.

0:11:290:11:33

And so what is this rather splendid-looking fellow?

0:11:330:11:37

It's a...

0:11:370:11:38

It's a posy vase really.

0:11:380:11:40

It's a bit of a novelty posy vase, but it is a posy vase.

0:11:400:11:43

Signed, dated '52.

0:11:430:11:49

1952? Year I was born.

0:11:490:11:51

And so was this a sort of model, a genre, of Holmegaard's thing?

0:11:510:11:55

Did they do lots of top hats?

0:11:550:11:57

They did a fair range. I think that was more in the novelty field

0:11:570:12:02

than some of their more serious glass, shall we say?

0:12:020:12:06

They did a whole range of stuff

0:12:060:12:10

throughout the '50s, '60s and, obviously, into the '70s.

0:12:100:12:14

-Do you like it?

-Yeah, I do.

0:12:140:12:15

-It's got a lovely sort of pale-blue hue to it.

-It has, hasn't it?

0:12:150:12:21

It looks perfect.

0:12:210:12:23

Well, it's absolutely perfect.

0:12:230:12:25

-Lovely weight. Feel that.

-It's beautiful.

-Oh, it's absolutely superb quality.

0:12:250:12:29

Yeah. It's very typical, isn't it? Dickensian whimsy.

0:12:290:12:33

It's a good bit of fun. Bit kitsch, but it's a good bit of fun.

0:12:330:12:37

If we're to make a profit, can we, you know?

0:12:370:12:40

£30 would be the best.

0:12:400:12:42

-I was about to say that.

-Done.

-This man's ahead of me.

0:12:420:12:45

-You like it?

-I like it very much.

0:12:450:12:46

-Yeah.

-I think it's very unusual.

-Kerry?

-Yes. It's a nice piece.

0:12:460:12:51

-Shake Peter's hand, do the deal.

-Thank you, Peter.

0:12:510:12:55

So the teams are racing around.

0:12:550:12:58

The Blues have two items to buy, but something tells me they're not taking Kate seriously.

0:12:580:13:03

-Do you like that?

-No.

0:13:030:13:05

Move on!

0:13:070:13:09

-Well, I've seen a little tea case. It's not exciting you, is it?

-Not at all really, no.

-No, it's not.

0:13:090:13:14

That is a very good point, David.

0:13:140:13:16

-It's horrible.

-Isn't it?

0:13:160:13:18

I get the message!

0:13:200:13:23

It seems so easy to you lot at home, doesn't it?

0:13:250:13:28

Relaxing on your settee, enjoying a nice cup of tea.

0:13:280:13:31

But why don't you have a go at Bargain Hunt? Just email us at...

0:13:310:13:35

OK, you can carry on with your tea now.

0:13:390:13:42

Mm.

0:13:420:13:43

Well, Kate can't! Ha! She's still trying to find something to grab the Blues' attention.

0:13:440:13:49

I tell you what, now what about this?

0:13:490:13:51

-This is a bit of class for you.

-Mm.

0:13:510:13:54

-Is it silver?

-It is silver.

-Yeah.

0:13:540:13:57

It's a pretty good, solid box.

0:13:570:13:59

-Originally made for cigarettes, but somebody could use it as a jewellery box...

-Yeah.

-..you know, today.

0:13:590:14:05

It's hallmarked here.

0:14:050:14:07

-What age is that?

-I think it's... '40s,

0:14:070:14:11

I would say.

0:14:110:14:13

-Which area?

-It's Birmingham.

0:14:130:14:15

The thing I like about it...

0:14:150:14:17

OK, you've got these initials on the top, but you've got this lovely little border running round here.

0:14:170:14:23

Almost sort of Celtic frieze. Have a look.

0:14:230:14:27

-Do you like that?

-It's not bad.

0:14:270:14:29

-It's nice.

-It's not bad. It needs a good clean, doesn't it?

-It does.

0:14:290:14:32

-Once it's clean it'll look different.

-Yeah, it will look stunning.

-Will the initials let the price down?

0:14:320:14:37

I think... I mean, initials...

0:14:370:14:40

It would be great if it wasn't personalised,

0:14:400:14:42

but the way I look at it is, it's part of the history.

0:14:420:14:45

-That was given to somebody, probably a gent.

-Yeah.

0:14:450:14:49

And that was his mark, and it's part of the history of the piece.

0:14:490:14:53

-Some people don't mind that.

-I suppose.

-Once it's had a clean-up it will be OK.

0:14:530:14:57

I think it would look a lot better if it was clean, yeah.

0:14:570:15:00

-Shall I find out how much it is?

-Yeah.

-OK. Hang on to it.

0:15:000:15:04

Let's hope Kate gets a good price. After all, the Reds are already contemplating their final item.

0:15:040:15:09

Beautifully decorated.

0:15:090:15:13

-It's got great presence!

-Really like it.

-I think it's a lovely object.

-Beautiful.

0:15:130:15:18

It's like Marmite, innit? You either love that or hate it.

0:15:190:15:23

We'll have a think. Thank you very much indeed.

0:15:230:15:26

So whilst the Reds have a think about the pheasant,

0:15:260:15:31

Kate's been plucky with the £120 cigarette box.

0:15:310:15:35

£80 we've come down to.

0:15:350:15:37

-That's better...

-It's come down a little bit, hasn't it?

0:15:370:15:40

Even if it makes £90, you're making a tenner at the end of the day?

0:15:400:15:43

-It's better than nothing. I reckon so, yeah.

-Think it's worth a gamble?

0:15:430:15:47

And once it's clean, that's going to look even better. I reckon so, Kate, yeah.

0:15:470:15:52

-You might even make a little bit more.

-Hopefully.

0:15:520:15:55

I don't think we'll make a fortune, but I think it's got a chance.

0:15:550:15:58

-We haven't seen anything else.

-That's it, you know what I mean? So that's nice. Yeah.

0:15:580:16:03

-Go on then, go and give him some notes.

-Okey-dokey.

0:16:030:16:05

Let's look this way.

0:16:050:16:07

So that's two-all, but the clock's still ticking and the Reds still have £260 in their pockets.

0:16:070:16:14

-Isn't that funny. Look at that.

-Very strange.

-How much have you got on this fellow?

-60.

0:16:160:16:22

60 at the moment.

0:16:220:16:24

-We've just come from one pheasant to another.

-To another.

0:16:240:16:27

-What could you do?

-50.

0:16:270:16:29

50? Well, that's another thought.

0:16:290:16:31

So that's 50? But we have to quantify what it might make at auction.

0:16:310:16:37

And that very green colour.

0:16:370:16:39

Our teams are still busy shopping, but when they've done,

0:16:460:16:50

any leftover cash will be given to their expert to go off

0:16:500:16:53

and find that surprise item, the bonus buy, which will be revealed to them at auction.

0:16:530:17:00

If they decide to go with it and it makes a profit, that could be the making of them.

0:17:000:17:04

If it loses, it could be the breaking of them.

0:17:040:17:08

Let's hope they have a smashing time.

0:17:080:17:10

With only ten minutes left, both teams still have their final item to buy.

0:17:100:17:17

-That is lovely. How much is that?

-700.

0:17:170:17:19

Ah! I asked for that.

0:17:190:17:22

£125. Put the cow down.

0:17:220:17:25

So as the Reds are taking it all in their stride, the Blues are struggling.

0:17:250:17:31

Different though, innit?

0:17:310:17:32

Looks as if it's about to fall to pieces!

0:17:320:17:36

-Mmm.

-Would that sell or?

0:17:370:17:40

Mmm, not particularly.

0:17:400:17:42

-No.

-I don't think it's for us.

-No. OK.

0:17:420:17:46

-I don't even like it anyway.

-No?

0:17:460:17:48

Where's Darren?

0:17:480:17:50

Oh! Shall we try in there?

0:17:500:17:52

James has gone full circle and has ended up with the figurine,

0:17:520:17:55

-but can he convince the Reds that she's a winner?

-She's still there.

0:17:550:18:00

We're coming back. Thank the Lord they haven't sold it to the Blues.

0:18:000:18:03

Yeah, definitely.

0:18:030:18:05

Shall we have another quick look, make sure.

0:18:050:18:08

-She's still beautiful.

-I'll just have a quick look.

0:18:080:18:11

-Always just sort of fingers and toes, isn't it really?

-Yes.

0:18:110:18:15

She's got the correct amount of fingers, correct amount of toes, and it's fun.

0:18:150:18:19

Whether she was a sort of ball dancer or something like that, I don't know. It's rather nice.

0:18:190:18:25

-James, is there any actual age to her?

-There is a bit of age to it.

0:18:250:18:29

It's probably, probably...

0:18:290:18:32

I'm sure I saw these sort of things coming into the auction room in the '80s and '90s.

0:18:320:18:37

So it's in the last 20 years.

0:18:370:18:40

And it's quite fun. Now we've gone round the fair,

0:18:400:18:44

-we're slightly armed with a better idea towards price and what you can get for your money.

-Yep.

0:18:440:18:50

-If we weighed this up, say, with that pheasant we looked at.

-Yes.

0:18:500:18:54

Which was expensive, wasn't it?

0:18:540:18:56

-Yes.

-A sculptural object.

0:18:560:18:58

We're buying a sculptural object here for less money,

0:18:580:19:01

but it's modern and there are pros and cons with everything.

0:19:010:19:04

-Yes.

-Yeah, definitely.

-The lady's offered us £30 on this, which I think is fair.

0:19:040:19:09

Yeah. I don't think that's too bad at all, Kerry.

0:19:090:19:12

-No. I think go with it.

-I think it's rather fun.

-I do.

0:19:120:19:15

-She's lovely.

-Yeah, definitely.

-So first item we looked at, the third item we've bought.

0:19:150:19:20

-We're done, ahead of schedule.

-Brilliant!

0:19:200:19:22

The Reds have finished, with minutes to spare.

0:19:220:19:26

But the Blues are still driving Kate wild.

0:19:260:19:28

-I'm trying hard, boys, I'm trying hard.

-I know, I know.

0:19:280:19:32

-Quite nice.

-Nice if we could get a Hardy's book.

0:19:320:19:34

Is that what it is?

0:19:340:19:36

-Yeah.

-What would that make at auction? Phh!

0:19:360:19:40

What do you reckon?

0:19:400:19:41

-You're the fisherman!

-I only eat it.

0:19:410:19:45

What would you pay for that?

0:19:450:19:47

I don't know, cos I'm not... It's not something I would buy.

0:19:470:19:51

There's no room for indecision in this game, but Kate's trying to get things moving along.

0:19:510:19:56

-28.

-30 and that's it.

-It's only two quid.

-I didn't pay cheap for it, so...

0:19:560:20:00

Well, boys, you heard it from the man. It's got to be 30.

0:20:000:20:04

Yeah, we'll go for it. What's that?

0:20:040:20:06

-What if we was to buy the reel and book?

-And put it as one lot?

0:20:060:20:11

It's an Allcock Redditch fly reel.

0:20:120:20:14

-Is it old?

-It's not bad. It's in good nick as well. 55 quid.

0:20:140:20:18

-Would you prefer to go for the reel?

-Maybe somebody don't want to buy the Hardy's book,

0:20:180:20:22

-but would want to buy the reel?

-But then maybe they'd only pay 40, 50 quid.

0:20:220:20:26

That's what you've got to take into account. Maybe somebody wants the reel but not the book.

0:20:260:20:32

-Or somebody wants the book but don't want the reel.

-I reckon take the gamble.

0:20:320:20:36

Do you want to put the flight in with the reel?

0:20:360:20:38

Here we go, let's just really complicate it.

0:20:380:20:41

It was already pretty complicated! With seconds left,

0:20:410:20:44

the Blues need to make a decision, after all, the Reds are finished!

0:20:440:20:48

Well, I think you don't want the reel and the tin.

0:20:480:20:51

-I think £70 for those two is a lot.

-Yeah.

0:20:510:20:53

So I think if you're interested in the reel, just take the reel. £40 for the reel, with the name.

0:20:530:20:58

-It's in nice condition.

-It is in nice condition.

0:20:580:21:01

-We'll go for the reel then.

-I think that's a gamble.

-I'm happy with that.

0:21:010:21:05

-I get my thing and you don't get yours.

-It doesn't matter.

-I tell you what, I'm exhausted!

0:21:050:21:11

So finally, they sealed the deal and got the fishing reel for £40.

0:21:110:21:16

KLAXON SOUNDS

0:21:160:21:19

Hello, time's up. Let's remind ourselves what the Reds bought.

0:21:190:21:23

Jane and Kerry spied the Parisian racing binoculars

0:21:230:21:27

and got them down to a spectacular £5.

0:21:270:21:31

They smartened up their act

0:21:310:21:33

with the Scandinavian, Holmegaard top hat vase for £30.

0:21:330:21:38

And she was the first item they spotted.

0:21:380:21:41

The Art Deco Austrian porcelain figure of an erotic dancer.

0:21:410:21:46

Jane, Kerry, did you have a good time?

0:21:460:21:49

-Wonderful time, Tim.

-Yeah. Pretty cheap though!

-Very.

0:21:490:21:53

Which is your favourite piece?

0:21:530:21:55

-Probably the Holmegaard glass top hat.

-That's your favourite.

0:21:550:21:59

-What about you, Kerry, for favourite?

-The binoculars.

0:21:590:22:02

-The binoculars. Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?

-Her binoculars.

0:22:020:22:06

-Hopefully.

-And you think that too?

0:22:060:22:08

Well, there's a lot riding on that, cos frankly you only spent a pathetic £65. I don't believe this.

0:22:080:22:14

-I want £235 of leftover lolly.

-Thank you.

-Nearly a record total going over to you, James.

0:22:140:22:20

-What have you been doing with these girls?

-No, we've been spending prudently.

0:22:200:22:25

-Very prudently.

-It's what they call "tight"!

0:22:250:22:28

-Tight.

-And you didn't need an ambulance or anything?

-I was in safe hands.

0:22:280:22:32

-They would have talked me through any emergency.

-Quite right.

0:22:320:22:35

-Are you going to blow that money on one item?

-Well, it would be lovely.

0:22:350:22:39

-Wouldn't that be great?

-But I don't think I will.

0:22:390:22:42

-No, once you set a pattern of prudence, it's hard to get off again.

-Yes.

0:22:420:22:47

-Something silvery.

-Something silvery? There's a hint there, girls.

0:22:470:22:51

Anyway, good luck with your silvery chase.

0:22:510:22:54

Let us remind ourselves what the Blues bought.

0:22:540:22:57

David and Darren were bubbling over with enthusiasm

0:22:570:23:01

for the rosewood and brass spirit level, bought for £10.

0:23:010:23:05

Kate worked her magic

0:23:050:23:06

and got the 1956 Birmingham, silver cigarette box down to £80.

0:23:060:23:11

And then finally, took the bait

0:23:130:23:15

and decided on the Allcock brass fishing reel.

0:23:150:23:18

-Was that great?

-Lovely day.

-Fantastic.

0:23:200:23:22

-Very nice day out.

-Which is your favourite, Darren?

0:23:220:23:25

-I'd say mine's the spirit level, Tim.

-Dave?

-Oh, I'm biased. I've got to say the fly reel.

0:23:250:23:30

Fishing interest. Which piece will bring the biggest profit?

0:23:300:23:34

-Hopefully, the silver box.

-Yeah, I have to agree. Definitely, the silver box, yeah.

0:23:340:23:38

Silver box, brilliant. You spent £130, which is pretty modest.

0:23:380:23:42

-£170 of leftover lolly goes straight to Kate Bliss.

-Thank you very much.

0:23:420:23:47

-What are you going to do with that, Kate?

-I might go for something a little fishy.

0:23:470:23:53

Fishy? Ooh, there you go.

0:23:530:23:56

Wasn't that lovely? Now, we're off somewhere equally lovely.

0:23:560:24:01

Quex House and Museum in Kent was home to naturalist

0:24:120:24:17

and collector Major Percy Powell-Cotton,

0:24:170:24:21

who went on no less than 28 scientific expeditions

0:24:210:24:25

across Asia and Africa between 1887 and 1939.

0:24:250:24:31

He brought back all sorts of extraordinary things here to his home in Kent.

0:24:310:24:37

During the late Victorian era, it was extremely fashionable and a sign

0:24:370:24:42

of wealth to decorate homes with oriental flair, which is exactly what Major Percy Powell-Cotton did.

0:24:420:24:49

And what a brilliant job he's done.

0:24:490:24:52

Just look at this.

0:24:520:24:54

The drawing room was an add-on to the original Regency structure

0:24:580:25:04

that had been built by the major's father.

0:25:040:25:06

And his father had had the ceiling finished in this rather strange Egyptian style.

0:25:060:25:13

The major himself set off on a world trip in 1887, a trip that was last three years.

0:25:130:25:20

And everywhere he went, he picked something up to go into his collection or into the house.

0:25:200:25:26

You can hardly believe it, but he ordered in Kashmir, in northern India,

0:25:260:25:32

a whole series of intricately carved Kashmiri walnut panels to have fitted into this room.

0:25:320:25:39

Not only did they go around the window openings

0:25:390:25:43

and the door surrounded, but the overmantel is covered in the stuff and also this dado rail.

0:25:430:25:50

Profusely carved with flowers and foliage,

0:25:500:25:54

it's designed to contain these needleworked panels,

0:25:540:25:57

panels that Powell-Cotton had picked up in Japan.

0:25:570:26:03

Powell-Cotton didn't restrict himself to only buying when he was on his travels,

0:26:030:26:09

on the hoof, so as to speak.

0:26:090:26:11

He was endlessly acquiring objects at auction, for example, in Britain.

0:26:110:26:17

Here we've got a catalogue from a firm called Stevens and Co,

0:26:170:26:22

who were having an auction in Covent Garden in 1912

0:26:220:26:26

of Maori weapons, implements, ornaments and robes.

0:26:260:26:31

The ledger underneath records some of the prices for things that he bought.

0:26:310:26:36

For example, "A pair of red, lac armchairs, arms with dragons' heads."

0:26:360:26:43

And here they are.

0:26:430:26:45

A magnificent pair of red, lacquered armchairs carved out of katsura wood,

0:26:450:26:51

which is a relatively soft and easily carved wood,

0:26:510:26:55

but then covered in this ghoulish red lacquer.

0:26:550:26:59

Just look at that squashed dragon's mask at the top, with the mother of pearl, beady eyes.

0:26:590:27:06

Gorgeous, scale-carved dragony frame

0:27:060:27:11

with these dragon terminals sticking out on the ends.

0:27:110:27:15

Powell-Cotton paid for these £33.

0:27:150:27:20

A snip, I'd say. Wouldn't you?

0:27:200:27:23

The big question today is, of course, are any of our teams' snips

0:27:230:27:27

going to make a profit over at the auction?

0:27:270:27:30

I'm with Michael Roberts, our auctioneer

0:27:390:27:42

-at Canterbury Auction Galleries in Canterbury. Hi, Mike.

-Hi, Tim.

0:27:420:27:46

-Now, our Red team today, their first item are the binoculars.

-Mm.

0:27:460:27:49

It says "Le Jockey Club" on them. So, presumably, they're French?

0:27:490:27:54

Well, that's the thinking, yes. They've had a bit of a hard life.

0:27:540:27:57

They're brass which has been chromed and the leather's all worn off round the sides.

0:27:570:28:04

So, unfortunately, not a lot of cop really.

0:28:040:28:07

-How much cop?

-£5-10.

0:28:070:28:09

£5-10 cop. Well, that's a fair cop, cop, cos they only paid a fiver.

0:28:090:28:14

-So that's not bad, is it?

-No.

0:28:140:28:16

If they could double their money, they'd be very pleased.

0:28:160:28:19

I think they've spotted a winner there. What about the Scandinavian top hat vase?

0:28:190:28:25

A nice thing. Quite nice quality.

0:28:250:28:28

-I can date that.

-How do you date that then?

0:28:280:28:30

At the bottom you've got the mark of Holmegaard,

0:28:300:28:33

which is the maker, and at the end of there you've got a few digits,

0:28:330:28:37

ending with 52, which is the year.

0:28:370:28:39

-We've learnt something there. What's it worth, this thing?

-Well, £25-£35.

-OK, fine.

0:28:390:28:45

-£30 paid.

-Right.

-Jane found it.

0:28:450:28:48

-She loves it, so I think that's a very good price actually.

-Yeah.

0:28:480:28:51

-Now, James found this girl.

-Yep.

0:28:510:28:53

-She's looking pleased with herself.

-She'd brighten up my desk.

-Yeah, brighten up anybody's desk!

0:28:530:28:59

-How old is she?

-Not very...

-Round about 18?

-Well, possibly.

0:28:590:29:02

In terms of the figure itself, it's not terribly old at all.

0:29:020:29:07

It's in the style Goldscheider, the Austrian, famed makers, but...

0:29:070:29:11

-So it's a reproduction?

-It is a reproduction and possibly Chinese or something like that.

0:29:110:29:16

-What's it worth?

-My estimate's £30-£50.

0:29:160:29:19

-£30 paid.

-Fine.

-So that's pretty well on the button, isn't it?

0:29:190:29:22

-Yes, great.

-They've done rather well. They spent very little.

0:29:220:29:25

Which I get quite cross about, but they seem to have spent wisely.

0:29:250:29:28

They probably won't need the bonus buy, but let's go and have a look at it anyway.

0:29:280:29:33

Jane, Kerry, you spent a miserable £65. Can't believe this.

0:29:330:29:37

Giving James a whopping £235 to spend on your bonus buy.

0:29:370:29:41

And rumour has it that he's blown the lot. Let's see what he's got you.

0:29:410:29:47

Ah...

0:29:480:29:50

-That's small, James.

-It is small. I'm very sorry.

0:29:500:29:53

I think Kerry loves it.

0:29:550:29:57

-We'll leave them with a pause.

-Is it a letter opener?

0:29:570:30:00

Correct. Yeah, letter opener.

0:30:000:30:01

-And is it silver?

-It is silver.

0:30:010:30:04

And it's rather nice with this sort of Celtic knot.

0:30:040:30:07

It's not, unfortunately, medieval. This is slightly later.

0:30:070:30:12

-Does it light your fire, Kerry?

-No.

0:30:120:30:15

Oh.

0:30:150:30:17

-Not personally.

-Not my fire, but it's pretty, decorative.

0:30:170:30:21

-Yes.

-And how much did you pay for it, James?

0:30:210:30:23

Ah, two...

0:30:230:30:25

No.

0:30:250:30:26

£40.

0:30:260:30:28

-OK.

-You immediately feel better about that, don't you?

-Yes, we do.

0:30:280:30:32

These two who have shopped with such care and parsimony, only spending £65.

0:30:320:30:38

Do you think there's a profit in it though, James?

0:30:380:30:41

I think it's in the balance.

0:30:410:30:43

-OK.

-But it is 1950s.

0:30:430:30:46

-Thank you.

-So...

-You're not predicting a whopper?

0:30:460:30:48

I'm not, I'm afraid.

0:30:480:30:51

OK. Well, just hang on to that thought, girls,

0:30:510:30:54

because for the audience at home let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about James' letter knife.

0:30:540:31:01

-Right then, one letter knife for the use of.

-Indeed.

0:31:010:31:05

Well, it's Scottish silver, which traditionally is quite collectable.

0:31:050:31:11

Yeah, it's fine. Good condition.

0:31:110:31:13

-Useful.

-It's all down to the money, isn't it really?

-Yeah, exactly.

0:31:130:31:16

-My estimates £20-30.

-£40 James has paid for that.

0:31:160:31:20

-All right.

-Might be a bit tight for a profit, eh?

0:31:200:31:22

-Yeah.

-Anyway, that's it for the Reds.

0:31:220:31:24

Now for the Blues.

0:31:240:31:26

Here we go, look. Their first item is the spirit level.

0:31:260:31:29

I suppose it's fine, isn't it?

0:31:290:31:31

-But it's not terribly big, so...

-Bit boring.

0:31:310:31:34

Bit boring, not terribly useful.

0:31:340:31:36

-It's all right if you want to get something level.

-Well, I suppose so,

0:31:360:31:39

-but really you'd want something a bit bigger, wouldn't you, overall?

-Yeah.

0:31:390:31:42

-But, yeah, it's fine.

-You're not going to build a house with it, put it like that.

0:31:420:31:47

"Lewis and Co" is stamped on the brass plate.

0:31:470:31:51

-Yeah, it's OK. Fine.

-How much do you think?

-10-15.

-Are you levelling with me?

-We'll see.

0:31:510:31:56

-10-15?

-Yes.

-£10 they paid.

0:31:560:31:58

-Right.

-That's fair enough.

-Fairly level, yeah.

-No trouble with that.

-No.

-We're on a level playing field.

0:31:580:32:03

-We are.

-Excellent. What about the cigarette box?

0:32:030:32:06

Yeah, it's OK.

0:32:060:32:08

1956 is the Birmingham hallmark - where are we? - on the side.

0:32:080:32:11

Unfortunately, it's been engraved to the top.

0:32:110:32:13

But it's a cigarette box that's fairly dull and not of great use.

0:32:130:32:18

-Yes. It looks a bit filthy.

-Yeah.

-So how much then?

0:32:180:32:23

-£45-60 is my estimate.

-OK, £80 paid.

0:32:230:32:25

-All right.

-Kate found that.

0:32:250:32:28

-She rated it and I can see where she's coming from.

-Yeah.

0:32:280:32:30

But the engraved top doesn't do it greatly for me, I have to say, cos getting that out is difficult.

0:32:300:32:36

Very thin silver anyway on top of wood, so I don't know.

0:32:360:32:40

-Anyway, 45-60 is where you're coming from.

-Sure.

-Great. Thank you.

0:32:400:32:44

-And what about the fishing reel?

-Well, it's Allcock's, a good make.

0:32:440:32:48

It's not terribly big, with a ratchet on it.

0:32:480:32:51

Sort of a fly fishing reel.

0:32:510:32:55

It's a lacquered brass. Little mark there stamped on it.

0:32:550:32:58

They're quite collectable, but it's not the most exciting example and my estimate is £25-£35.

0:32:580:33:05

-And they paid £40.

-Right, OK.

0:33:050:33:07

So all round, apart from their spirit level, it's a bit tight.

0:33:070:33:10

So we'd better go and have a look at their bonus buy. Here it comes.

0:33:100:33:14

Dave and Darren, this is your moment, right?

0:33:140:33:17

You spent £130.

0:33:170:33:19

Kate spent £170 maybe, the leftover lolly, on a bonus buy.

0:33:190:33:22

Did you blow the lot, Kate, or not?

0:33:220:33:25

-Not quite.

-Aaah!

-Now, you may have seen...

0:33:250:33:29

-We seen that, didn't we?

-This before.

-We did see that.

0:33:290:33:31

You had a really tough job choosing your things, didn't you?

0:33:310:33:35

And you saw this and we had to make a decision.

0:33:350:33:37

So there we go, we've got it as the bonus buy.

0:33:370:33:39

It's the Hardy's Anglers' Guide And Catalogue, of course. 1957 in date.

0:33:390:33:45

And it's got that magic name.

0:33:450:33:48

It's got the Hardy name, which all fishing collectors look for.

0:33:480:33:51

I'm afraid I paid £30, which is probably the top end of an estimate, I would say, but you never know.

0:33:510:33:59

It's gone on the internet.

0:33:590:34:01

If the collectors find it, you may be in for a small profit.

0:34:010:34:05

-I like it, yeah.

-I'm happy with that, very happy with that one.

0:34:050:34:08

Can I have a look please, Darren?

0:34:080:34:10

-I think we'll make a profit on that.

-So it lights the blue touch paper?

-Yeah, definitely.

0:34:100:34:14

Anyway, you don't have to decided about it, boys, until the sale of your first three items.

0:34:140:34:19

But for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Kate's catalogue.

0:34:190:34:24

So here you go.

0:34:240:34:25

-Are you a fishing fanatic yourself?

-I'm not, I'm afraid.

0:34:250:34:28

But some of these earlier ones of the Hardy's guides can be worth a reasonable amount of money.

0:34:280:34:33

-This one's only - where are we? - '57.

-Yes.

-And not in the best condition.

0:34:330:34:36

It does have a loose, typed list at the back, price list, which I'm led to believe is collectable.

0:34:360:34:43

Collectors of fishing memorabilia are quite fanatical, but I don't think it's the best, most exciting example.

0:34:430:34:49

That's what you'd read to learn how to do up your flies, isn't it?

0:34:490:34:52

-Yeah.

-What?

0:34:520:34:54

Well, I suppose so, yeah.

0:34:540:34:55

-Literally. Tie them up, I mean.

-Yes.

0:34:550:34:58

-Good.

-There we are.

-How much then?

0:34:580:34:59

-15-20 is my estimate.

-Is it? Right, £30 paid.

-Right.

0:34:590:35:02

So Kate Bliss rates it.

0:35:020:35:05

-I don't know. It just depends who's about in Canterbury that's keen on fishing really.

-I guess it does.

0:35:050:35:10

We're all fishing for a profit. Good luck on the rostrum.

0:35:100:35:13

-Thanks very much.

-Thanks very much.

0:35:130:35:15

120, 130...

0:35:160:35:18

£95. Who's 100? 100.

0:35:180:35:21

40. 90.

0:35:210:35:24

-Now, Jane and Kerry, this is the moment that you've been waiting for, you girls.

-We certainly have.

0:35:240:35:29

-It's a long time in coming, but it's lovely to be here.

-Yeah, it is.

0:35:290:35:33

-Lovely. Nice to see it so busy.

-It is full.

-Yeah, heaving.

-Have you ever seen so many people?

0:35:330:35:37

-It's wonderful. So how are you feeling overall? Tell me, Kerry.

-I'm just anxious.

0:35:370:35:42

-I'm not very patient, so I like to get it over and done with.

-What about you, Janey?

0:35:420:35:46

I'm not really sure at this moment, Tim.

0:35:460:35:49

-I don't think we're going to do too well.

-You don't think you're going to do too well?

-No.

0:35:490:35:53

First lot up though are the racing binoculars and here they come.

0:35:530:35:56

Lot 157 is the pair of French field glasses, racing glasses,

0:35:560:36:00

for Le Jockey Club.

0:36:000:36:02

£5 I'm bid. Straight in.

0:36:020:36:04

And ten behind, I'm bid. 12. Sir.

0:36:040:36:08

14. 16. 18.

0:36:080:36:10

Well done.

0:36:100:36:12

20. 22. No? I'm selling at £20.

0:36:120:36:16

£20. £15 straight up.

0:36:160:36:18

What did I tell you? £15 profit.

0:36:180:36:20

Great. Now the top hat vase.

0:36:200:36:23

OK, 158 is a Holmegaard, mauve-tinted, top hat vase.

0:36:230:36:28

I have commission interest. Going to start at £10 and I'm looking for 12.

0:36:280:36:31

Who's 12 now? £12 for someone?

0:36:310:36:33

12. Thank you. 14. 16.

0:36:330:36:35

18. 20. Bid's here at £20.

0:36:350:36:38

-Who's 22 now? Any more?

-Come on!

-At £20 and selling.

0:36:380:36:42

Minus £10.

0:36:440:36:46

But you've still got £5 profit.

0:36:460:36:47

-Yes.

-Next is the topless girl.

0:36:470:36:50

159 is the modern, porcelain figure of the topless female dancer.

0:36:500:36:55

That's cheered you all up. And who will start me at £20?

0:36:550:36:59

The dancer, £20?

0:36:590:37:01

£20 I'm bid. Who's 22?

0:37:010:37:03

-22 where? Any more at 22?

-Where are the red-bloodied men, eh?

0:37:030:37:07

24. 26. 28. 30. 32. 34. 36. 38.

0:37:070:37:12

-Well done, James.

-40. 42.

0:37:120:37:15

-£40 standing. Who's 42 now? Any more? At 40 and selling.

-£40!

0:37:150:37:19

That's £10 on that. You've got your £10 back.

0:37:190:37:22

You are plus £15. What are you gonna do then, girls?

0:37:220:37:25

Are you going to bank the £15 or go with the Celtic whatnot?

0:37:250:37:30

-I think we'll bank it please, Tim.

-You're going to bank the £15?

-Yes.

0:37:300:37:36

Doesn't show much team solidarity.

0:37:360:37:38

It doesn't, does it?

0:37:380:37:39

-No.

-I think I'm with the girls on this one.

-Oh, are you?

-Yeah.

0:37:390:37:43

You're not supposed to say anything.

0:37:430:37:45

-I'm sorry.

-You're not going with the bonus buy, but we're going to sell it anyway.

0:37:450:37:48

163 is an Elizabeth II Scottish silver paper knife

0:37:480:37:52

of Arts and Crafts design. £10 away.

0:37:520:37:55

Useful paper knife. £10 I'm bid. 12.

0:37:550:37:57

14. 16. 18. 20.

0:37:570:38:00

And two. 24. 26.

0:38:000:38:02

26? No. 24 in the middle. Who's £26?

0:38:020:38:06

One more. 26. 28. 30.

0:38:060:38:08

-Going on.

-32. 34, madam?

0:38:080:38:11

36.

0:38:110:38:12

-38. 40.

-Oh!

-No. 38 in the front. Who's £40?

0:38:120:38:17

Any more. 38 and selling.

0:38:170:38:19

£38. Bad luck, James, you're just £2 off. Well done, girls.

0:38:190:38:24

That was close though, wasn't it?

0:38:240:38:25

-It was. Very close.

-Now, listen, you are £15 up, right?

0:38:250:38:30

-Yes.

-Yep.

-Don't tell the Blues anything.

-We won't.

-No, we won't.

0:38:300:38:34

Seated, 24.

0:38:430:38:45

-OK, boys?

-Yes, we're fine.

-Been talking to those Reds?

0:38:450:38:49

-No, not at all.

-No, not at all, no.

0:38:490:38:51

-Not about the score anyway.

-Nothing.

-Not about the score.

-No, OK, fine.

0:38:510:38:55

So how are you feeling then, Darren?

0:38:550:38:57

Erm, a little bit nervous to be honest with you, cos you're not too sure what's gonna get in.

0:38:570:39:02

-But nervous?

-Nervous, yeah.

-What about you, Dave?

0:39:020:39:04

I'm not nervous. I'm confident we'll make some money today, yeah.

0:39:040:39:07

Anyway, first lot up though is the spirit level. Here it comes.

0:39:070:39:10

179, this Victorian rosewood and brass spirit level

0:39:100:39:14

with rounded ends by Lewis and Co.

0:39:140:39:16

There it is, lot 179. £5. £5 I'm bid. Thank you. Ten.

0:39:160:39:22

12. 14. 16. 18.

0:39:220:39:26

20. 22. 24. No?

0:39:260:39:29

22, standing. 24 with the lady. 26. No?

0:39:290:39:32

-26. 28.

-Look at that!

0:39:320:39:35

No. Any more? At 26 and selling.

0:39:350:39:37

£26. You've made £16 profit.

0:39:370:39:41

Well done, Darren. £16 up. Lovely.

0:39:410:39:44

Now, Kate, the box.

0:39:440:39:47

180. Commission interest.

0:39:470:39:49

We'll start at £30.

0:39:490:39:51

I'm looking for two. £32 where?

0:39:510:39:53

32. 34. 36. 38. 40. Two. 44.

0:39:530:39:58

42 here. Who's £44? 44. 46. 48.

0:39:580:40:02

-50 with me. And five.

-Come on.

0:40:020:40:04

-No? 50 here. Who's £55?

-Come on.

0:40:040:40:06

-Any more? £50 and selling on commission.

-Ah, look at that.

0:40:060:40:10

That cigarette case is minus £30,

0:40:100:40:12

-which means overall now you are minus 14, all right?

-Right.

0:40:120:40:16

-Here comes the fishing reel.

-181 is the Allcock's brass fly fishing reel.

0:40:160:40:21

And who's starting me at £10? £10 I'm bid. 12 where? Who's 12?

0:40:210:40:26

The reel. Right at the back, 12. 14.

0:40:260:40:29

16. 18. 20. Two.

0:40:290:40:33

24. 26. No? 24 right at the back.

0:40:330:40:36

Who's £26? 24 and selling.

0:40:360:40:38

That means overall you are minus £30.

0:40:380:40:42

Now what are you going to do about the bonus buy now?

0:40:420:40:44

We're going to go for it, Tim. Definitely going to go for it.

0:40:440:40:46

-You're going for it?

-Yes, definitely.

-The reel didn't do that well, did it?

0:40:460:40:50

-So what about the fishing interest here?

-It's more of a book, innit? Do you know what I mean?

0:40:500:40:54

Maybe the person that buys the reel might buy the book.

0:40:540:40:56

They didn't pay very much for the reel... Your decision.

0:40:560:40:59

-Your decision.

-What do you reckon?

-Yeah, I'd go for it.

-Yeah.

0:40:590:41:02

-Happy?

-Yeah.

-You're gonna go with it. We're going with the bonus buy. The annual. Here it comes.

0:41:020:41:07

Right, 185 is a Hardy's Anglers' Guide 1957,

0:41:070:41:10

with a loose, typed price list in the back. 185. Who's £10?

0:41:100:41:15

£10 where? Hardy's Anglers' Guide. A tenner? £10 for someone?

0:41:150:41:20

Anglers' Guide.

0:41:200:41:21

A fiver then? £5 I'm bid.

0:41:210:41:24

Thank you. Knows a bargain. Who's ten then? £10 where?

0:41:240:41:27

If not, I'm going to sell at a fiver. Mr Collins. I'm looking for £10.

0:41:270:41:30

At £5 and selling.

0:41:300:41:33

We didn't hook much of a fish there, I can tell you. £5.

0:41:330:41:38

-That's minus £25. That means overall you're minus £55, lads.

-Oh, well.

0:41:380:41:43

This could be a winning score, right?

0:41:430:41:46

It's not that funny.

0:41:460:41:48

This could be a winning score. Don't tell the Reds a thing.

0:41:480:41:50

-Right, OK.

-You've done well, boys.

0:41:500:41:52

-So, you guys, have you had a great time?

-Wonderful.

0:42:010:42:04

It's been good fun, hasn't it? It's been really close today actually.

0:42:040:42:07

-Have you been talking to one another?

-No, not at all.

0:42:070:42:09

No? Not at all? Well, as it turned out, there is a fairly thumping loss

0:42:090:42:14

for one of these teams, and it is, of course, the Blues.

0:42:140:42:17

-Ah!

-I'm sorry to tell you, lads.

0:42:170:42:20

Minus £55 you are overall.

0:42:200:42:23

Started off rather well with that nice little profit on the spirit level.

0:42:230:42:27

-Didn't it?

-That was a good lot, but I'm afraid downhill from there.

0:42:270:42:31

But I hope it's been good for you because we've loved having you on the show.

0:42:310:42:34

But the victors today are the Reds, who are actually going to be taking home money.

0:42:340:42:40

£15 worth of winnings. Well done.

0:42:400:42:43

You won that £15 with the binocs, then you lost a bit, and then you won a bit.

0:42:430:42:47

-Then you didn't go with the bonus buy and preserved your £15.

-We did.

-Had a good time?

-Wonderful, thanks.

0:42:470:42:53

-What about you?

-Good fun.

-Good. Thank you, it's been splendid.

0:42:530:42:56

-Join us soon for some more bargaining hunting, yes?

-Yes!
