0:00:04 > 0:00:08Ah, welcome, fellow agents.
0:00:08 > 0:00:13My informants tell me that we've got a couple of teams inside here.
0:00:13 > 0:00:17Good men and women, young sporty types.
0:00:17 > 0:00:21I'll sniff 'em out and give you the lowdown.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Hello and welcome to Alexandra Palace.
0:00:52 > 0:00:57Somewhere out there in this throng of people are our teams,
0:00:57 > 0:01:00longing to grab their fistful of cash.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Their task is to spend £300 in an hour,
0:01:02 > 0:01:07finding three objects which they'll then cart off to auction
0:01:07 > 0:01:11and the team that makes the most profit wins.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Now, that sounds quite straightforward, doesn't it?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Well, you ain't seen nothing yet.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Let's go bargain hunting!
0:01:26 > 0:01:30Today for your delectation and entertainment
0:01:30 > 0:01:33what better thing to get the old ticker racing
0:01:33 > 0:01:36than an old-fashioned battle between the sexes?
0:01:36 > 0:01:40For the Reds, we've got David and Matthew
0:01:40 > 0:01:43and for the Blues we've got Michelle and Zena.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44Welcome.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Strictly speaking, boys, it should be ladies first,
0:01:47 > 0:01:51so are you going to be gentlemanly and let the ladies win today?
0:01:51 > 0:01:53We're going to very politely let them lose.
0:01:53 > 0:01:58Ah, a very well-considered answer, if you don't mind my saying so.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01So how did you two get to know each other?
0:02:01 > 0:02:06We've known each other since we were children. We went to school together.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08- Did you?- And now we work together.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10- Working at what? - We write children's books.
0:02:10 > 0:02:15We write a series of children's books, just happen to have a couple here.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17That was a very smooth move there, I must say.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20About a naughty boy called Yuck.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23What was your inspiration for Yuck?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Well, I used to like doing some yucky things when I was a child.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31I once had an experiment to see just how yucky
0:02:31 > 0:02:35I could make my socks, so I wore them for six weeks
0:02:35 > 0:02:41- and by the end of it they were a little bit crusty and smelly. - Bit of gorgonzola.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- Bit of gorgonzola, bit of camembert. - Oh, yeah. Now, David,
0:02:44 > 0:02:46you have a fondness for maggots, don't you?
0:02:46 > 0:02:51- Yeah, this is on the yucky theme, when I was a yucky boy.- Yes. - And I went fishing.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56For a dare, I basically ate the bait which ended up as a maggot sandwich.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01Hope our lunchtime viewers today are enjoying that little piece, as you've upset half the nation.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05Thank you, boys. Now, girls, what's the connection and how do you two know each other?
0:03:05 > 0:03:09We met nine years ago when we worked together at the Edinburgh Festival
0:03:09 > 0:03:12and we enjoyed that so much that we decided to set up our own company
0:03:12 > 0:03:17and for the last five years, we've been running the smallest theatre in London.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- You never have.- We have. - And where is this theatre?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24- It's in Camden.- Now tell me about starting up with 1p.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28We started our business with 1p and we opened a business bank account with that
0:03:28 > 0:03:33and we decided that we would never get into debt and that we would always be thrifty...
0:03:33 > 0:03:38- Mmm-hmm.- Which has meant that we've been more successful than many high street banks...
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Most of the international banks. - And many popular businesses.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44So, Michelle, have you got any weaknesses, darling?
0:03:44 > 0:03:48Yeah, I like anything blue and anything with a bird on it
0:03:48 > 0:03:53and I'm also partial to copies of Catch 22, which is my favourite book and I'm aiming to collect 22 copies.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57- So far, I've got eight. - Zena, what do you collect?
0:03:57 > 0:04:02I like '50s to '70s teapot collections and...
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- Mixing bowls?- Yes, mixing bowls. - Pyrex?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07- Yes. Oh, I love Pyrex. - "I love Pyrex."
0:04:07 > 0:04:13Good, well I think we're going to have a very interesting programme today. This is now the money moment.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15There's your £300.
0:04:15 > 0:04:20- Thank you.- You know the rules, your experts await and off you go, and very, very, very good luck.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Quite like a maggot sandwich myself.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27Time to meet our men on the inside.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32Heading the Reds with fabulous form and an eye for detail, it's Philip Serrell.
0:04:36 > 0:04:42Smooth and sweet talking, the Blues benefit from the eyes and ears of David Barby.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50Things like that, that copper pot.
0:04:50 > 0:04:51Oh, here's a nice bit of treen.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Is the same sort of deal where it's all modern stuff.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57What are you particularly interested in yourselves?
0:04:57 > 0:04:59I quite like 1950s style.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03- We want something a bit ridiculous. - You want something a bit ridiculous?
0:05:03 > 0:05:06- Well, something that people will remember.- You got me.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08- You like animals, don't you?- Yes.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Well, come on, Michelle, let me show you this.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15- This is what I...- An owl! - Exactly. Now what do you think?
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- Oh, I do like an owl. - Right in the middle there.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- What's it for? - Well, this is to put papers in.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24If you were a lady of quality you would have put your papers in here
0:05:24 > 0:05:28and letters that you'd written and letters that you wanted to write.
0:05:28 > 0:05:34- Does one of you want to handle it? - I've never seen anything like it before so that might be a good thing.
0:05:34 > 0:05:39- Every single section of silver, you see the mark there?- Has a hallmark.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Each piece is in lovely condition and every piece is hallmarked.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45I know you like it because of the owl there.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48If you can get it for £90, I shall be delighted.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52- It's certainly got to come down lower than the £145.- Oh, yeah.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- All right. Start low.- Start low.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56Would you do this for a monkey?
0:05:56 > 0:05:59- I'd do it for a 100.- 80?
0:05:59 > 0:06:01No. That is the best, love, sorry.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- 100 is the best?- £100, yeah.- Ooh.
0:06:04 > 0:06:05Try for 95.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09Go on, then. 95, then.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- Thank you very much.- OK. Thank you.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15A monkey, Zena? We're not at London Zoo.
0:06:15 > 0:06:20- £95 it is.- Oh, brilliant. - That's yours.- Thank you very much.
0:06:20 > 0:06:21Have you got more of these?
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- I've got a set in a box.- Can I have a look, please?- How many in a set?
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Thank you. When you're holding silver...- Yeah.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Right, just take that.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35- Just flex the rim. Silver's a very soft metal.- Yeah.- Yes, very.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38- Can you feel how soft that is?- Yeah. - How thin a gauge that is?- Yeah.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Is that silver plated or silver?
0:06:40 > 0:06:44No, this is silver. If you look just there, you can see a hallmark.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47These were assayed, it's Birmingham, 1905. £145.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- I think at auction they're going to make £60 to £90, OK?- OK.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54- Ask him if he can help us on price. Are you happy to do that?- Yep.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58- Yeah.- Excuse me, what's the very best you can do on this for us?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01- You've got them for 145. - I can do 'em for 90.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02- £90?- Yeah.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07For me, that's the top end of our estimate, but I think they're quite nice quality.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- So do you want to buy them? - We're going to go for them.- Right.
0:07:10 > 0:07:16First purchase for the Reds, and they spent a healthy £90.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21- It would tie in with our writing book.- This would be on a desk.
0:07:21 > 0:07:26You rest the pens on there and then you've got red and then you've got blue ink.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29So it's a nice little piece, almost architectural.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- HE WHISTLES - Do you like that?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- No, I'm not convinced.- OK.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Can we bear that in mind?- Certainly.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- Yeah.- Because we may come back to this and say, "Right,
0:07:38 > 0:07:41"there's nothing else we can find, we'll go for that."
0:07:41 > 0:07:42- OK.- All right?
0:07:42 > 0:07:45You've got your work cut out for you there, David.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Still, keep looking.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50£205 and 40 minutes left to play with.
0:07:52 > 0:07:57- Chaps, you are book boys, aren't you?- Yes, we are.- Oh, that's nice.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00Operative Printers Assistants Society. Look at that, look.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- A piece of stained glass.- Do you think that's nice?- Yeah, it is.
0:08:03 > 0:08:08What you'd really want is two authors who would buy this and put it in their own home, wouldn't you?
0:08:08 > 0:08:13- I don't know whether you know two authors.- I think we just know a couple.- Fancy that!
0:08:13 > 0:08:17Excuse me, my dear, what's the best you can do on that for us?
0:08:17 > 0:08:18I'd do 50 on that.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Could you hang onto it for about 30 minutes?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25- Can't guarantee we'll have it, but would you mind doing that for us?- Course I will.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- You're an absolute angel. Thank you.- You're welcome.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31That's a tentative hold for the Reds.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35With £210 to spare, they can afford to be choosy.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43I like this cigar cutter.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Oh, isn't that good? - It's a very slim cigar.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Well, you have those little panatellas, don't you?
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- I don't know if we should be promoting smoking? - Probably shouldn't be.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57This is a collector's item, it's not promoting smoking. Oh!
0:08:57 > 0:08:59- Do you like that?- It's not bad.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03The young lady might be interested in that, sir, but not at that price.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06No. I'll go for 75. - What do you reckon, Zena?
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Would you do it for 60?- No.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Oh, they don't want much, do they?
0:09:11 > 0:09:14The ladies are going to have to start deciding very soon.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18I might just see if I can help them along a little.
0:09:21 > 0:09:26- You've had 45 minutes, you know.- Oh. - You've only got another quarter of an hour.- We can go back.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28We're making this stall-holder sweat.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Think about your expert. You want to get moving!
0:09:31 > 0:09:33I think it's called exasperation.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36I think it's called making your mind up time.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Anyway, good luck.- Thank you.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Someone's buckling under pressure.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44One item bought, two to find and 20 minutes to go.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- We need to do what Phil said and find a mixed stall.- Yeah.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Ah, this looks like a decision.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52- How did you get on? - We got it for 45.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Oh, that's brilliant. Come on, we better go and get something else.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59Are the girls any closer to making their minds up?
0:09:59 > 0:10:01- It's OK, he's there.- He's still here.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Hello.- We're back.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08So did you say you could do this one for 60?
0:10:08 > 0:10:11- 65. - Oh, it was worth a try.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Might as well have a go, hey?
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Have a try. Do you like it?
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- - Yes, please.- Let's take it.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19- Thanks. OK.- Well done, girls.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22£65 for the novelty cigar cutter.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33- What have you found, Phil? - Well, I'm trying to work out in my own mind whether I like that or not.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34I like it.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37It's kind of got a little bit of character.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41- I can't work out if it's cheap. - Well, it's brass, right, and it's arts and crafts,
0:10:41 > 0:10:43which is in vogue at the minute.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47I'm just trying to work out in my own mind whether it's 20 quid or 80 quid.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Maybe we could buy it for 20 quid.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52- I don't know whose stall it is. Is this you, sir?- It is, yes.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55What's the very best you could do on this?
0:10:55 > 0:10:59- The best on it would be 45.- 45?- Yes.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01How much money have we spent, Phil?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03You've spent £135, but, I mean, money's not issue.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- We've got no time left, so yes or no?- Let's get it, let's get it.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10At last, decisive action.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13One brass tray for £40.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Gloves. A glove holder.
0:11:17 > 0:11:22What's special about it? Do you know anything about the Art Nouveau movement in Scotland?
0:11:22 > 0:11:23- Rennie Mackintosh.- Exactly.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27So we're looking at the end of the 19th, beginning of the 20th century.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29Now, if you look at that,
0:11:29 > 0:11:31that style of elongated flower heads,
0:11:31 > 0:11:35it's very similar to the designs you would have seen in Miss Cranston's Tearooms.
0:11:35 > 0:11:40- You're not just buying a glove holder, you're buying a work of art.- Yes.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45And there's something quite modern about it as well, in that it looks quite organic and quite crafty.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50That's right. I think somebody's going to actually mount this and put it on the wall as a picture.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Look, it's £50.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55I will have a word with the dealer
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- to see if I can get it down slightly.- OK.- Meantime, have a chat.- Thank you.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00- What do you reckon? - I don't like it.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04What don't you like? Do you think you could make it?
0:12:04 > 0:12:05Um...yeah.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Right, come on girls, guess what?
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- How much?- I got it down to £25.
0:12:10 > 0:12:11- Half price.- Now, do we go for it?
0:12:11 > 0:12:15I like it. Zena's the one who needs to decide, I think.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19I'm not so keen but I'm happy to go with it. I think if you got it down to half price...
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Oh, hallelujah!
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Hallelujah, indeed!
0:12:24 > 0:12:27And just in the nick, as time is up.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Let's recap on what the Reds bought.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33The Reds picked up the Birmingham silver gilt goblets
0:12:33 > 0:12:36for a nice round £90.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39£45 bought the stained glass lead panel
0:12:39 > 0:12:44and finally, for £40, the brass tray.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52- Matthew and David, did you have a good time shopping?- Very good.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56Well, you spent a perfectly respectable £175.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- I'd like £125 of leftover lolly. There you go, Philip Serrell.- Yeah.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01You've had fun with these guys?
0:13:01 > 0:13:05Having spent all day with them, I'm going to buy a lighthouse or a ladder.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08I've been talking to them like that all day long.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09Well, good luck with that, Phil.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Lot's of clues there. Let's remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18The ladies kicked the day off with the silver and oak desk folder
0:13:18 > 0:13:23and despite offering a monkey, they handed over £95.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27Next up they took a while to decide, but for £65
0:13:27 > 0:13:31the Blue team acquired one novelty cigar cutter.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34And finally, for £25, a beautifully embroidered
0:13:34 > 0:13:37linen Glaswegian glove pocket.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Just what you need.
0:13:42 > 0:13:47- So, girls, did you have a good time? - Really good.- Enjoy shopping? - Fantastic, thank you.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Anyway, you spent £185, I'd like £115 of leftover lolly, please.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55Thank you very much. Big old fair out there, rather good fun, I thought.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59Yes, but two contestants with such diverse interests,
0:13:59 > 0:14:02it was difficult to pinpoint any particular piece.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- But they were quite determined. - Were they? Well, that's good.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08And you're determined to find an excellent bonus buy
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- with which to boost their profits. - They're very keen on names.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- Are they?- Very keen on names, so I'm going after a big name item.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- Are you?- Yes. I hope. - All right. Well, good luck.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26We've come to Bellmans Auctioneers and Valuers in West Sussex
0:14:26 > 0:14:29to meet our auctioneer for today, Jonathan Pratt.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33- Morning, Tim.- Morning. Our Red team, Matthew, David,
0:14:33 > 0:14:36their first item are these six little jokers in a case.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40Hallmarked silver, 1905 by the Adie brothers.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44- A saleable item, I guess.- They're nicely presented and there are six.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46- £70 to £100.- Brilliant. £90 paid.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Next is rather an unusual object, isn't it? This stained glass panel.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53I mean, I quite like this sort of decorative glasswork.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Obviously it's got a limited appeal,
0:14:56 > 0:15:00- but you don't get that sort of thing today, really. Certainly not in your office.- No.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04- Probably between £20 and £40 for it. - Difficult to value, though, frankly.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07Now, the rectangular arts and crafts tray.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09Limited appeal, I suppose, in some respects -
0:15:09 > 0:15:14people don't want to clean it, but it's decorative and functional.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16- £50 to £80. - Very good. £40 paid.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20So Philip's been quite smart with finding that and in case they don't do well,
0:15:20 > 0:15:23they're going to need the bonus buy so let's go and have a look at it.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26Well, chaps, you feeling fit?
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- Very good.- Yeah.
0:15:28 > 0:15:33Now, you gave Philip Serrell £125, yes? You spent £175.
0:15:33 > 0:15:37- Has he spent all of your £125? - Don't look at me like that. No, he has not.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40- Look at that.- Gosh.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- Wow.- It's a serpentine lighthouse,
0:15:43 > 0:15:46which I thought resembled you two, really.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49- How much did you pay for it?- £45. - £45.- That's not bad.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51What made you buy it?
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Do you know what chiefly made me buy it?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56I had one of these three days before we did the filming
0:15:56 > 0:16:00that was that big and it made £850.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04And I thought if that made £850 and this was 45 quid, you know...
0:16:04 > 0:16:09- I think that's going to make £40 to £60.- There is some profit in this, in your opinion?
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- I honestly think there's profit. - Stay with that thought, boys.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Because for the viewers at home, we're going to show this lamp to the auctioneer
0:16:16 > 0:16:18and see what he thinks.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20So is this a beacon for you?
0:16:20 > 0:16:21- Beacon of hope?- Yes.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26Well, we have sold quite a lot of this sort of thing in the last couple of years.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Relatively speaking, I think it's reasonably modern, made in the last 50 years.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Yes. It's an incredibly well-made object.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36- Oh, absolutely. - And I think rather fun.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39- I think so, too. - What's your estimate?- £30 to £50.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40Brilliant, £45 paid.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44That's it for the Reds, now for the Blues,
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Zena and Michelle.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50The silver and oak encrusted blotter.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Really captures the style of the late 19th century, early 20th century.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56- I like that quite a lot. - How much do you like it?
0:16:56 > 0:16:58I've said £80 to £120.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02Well, that's brilliant. £95 they paid so that stands a real chance.
0:17:02 > 0:17:07- What about the cigar cutter?- Well, it's a German one, brass and tin.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10It's modelled on a ship's engine room telegraph,
0:17:10 > 0:17:13- so you'd pull the little knob back there.- Full steam ahead.
0:17:13 > 0:17:14- Exactly.- Yeah.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19- How much do you think it's worth? - I think between £30 and £50 for it. - Is that all?
0:17:19 > 0:17:21- Mmm.- Ah, £65, they paid.
0:17:21 > 0:17:25The last item's bit of needlework. Quite nice stylised flower heads.
0:17:25 > 0:17:30Exactly. The style you can see is typical Scottish-inspired Charles Rennie Mackintosh sort of thing.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- I think it'll be limited in its appeal.- What's your estimate?
0:17:33 > 0:17:38- £20 to £40.- Brilliant. £25 they paid so that stands a good chance too.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41I mean, I think that's quite an intelligently-bought trio,
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- cos they've all got something about them which is a bit different,
0:17:44 > 0:17:50and they've got some fun items, so I'm feeling pretty bullish about what's going to happen here.
0:17:50 > 0:17:56On the other hand, I could be wrong and they'll need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00Zena and Michelle, this is the bonus buy moment.
0:18:00 > 0:18:05- OK.- You gave David £115 of leftover lolly. Did he spend the lot?
0:18:05 > 0:18:06Well, Tim...
0:18:06 > 0:18:10- Well...- They are very keen on named things -
0:18:10 > 0:18:13you know, branded goods and people, personalities,
0:18:13 > 0:18:20so I have an Archibald Knox designed piece of pewter for Liberty.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- Do you want to hold it? - How much did you pay for it?- £100.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25£100.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29I want to ask you, Zena, how does it get you in the tummy?
0:18:29 > 0:18:34- Um... £100 gets me in the tummy. - Do you think it's too much? - What you've bought is quality.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37- It's got a nice weight to it. - Michelle's more positive.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41I'm very practical. Look at this from its art point of view.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43You don't have to decide right now, you'll decide later.
0:18:43 > 0:18:48But for the viewers at home let's find out what the auctioneer thinks of David's dish.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51- There's a stellar object. - Yeah, that's superb.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55- I think it would do quite well. I've got high hopes for it. - What's your estimate?
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- £100 to £150. - Well, Barby will be delighted.
0:18:58 > 0:19:03£100 he paid for that so that stands a really good chance of making money for the bonus buy.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07The question is, will the teams go with this? We'll find out later.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- Are you taking the auction? - I will be, yeah.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Ah, we're in safe hands.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23- So how are you feeling, chaps? - Good.- Pretty good, yes.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Is it rather like a book launch for you, chaps,
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- a new publication coming out, you're full of confidence...- Yeah.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31- This is going really well. - Of course.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35- Is that the moment? Is that what it's like?- Yeah.- That's the moment.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37- Yes.- We're waiting, we're ready.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39First lot up is your goblets and here they come.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43A set of six silver spirit goblets by Adie Bros,
0:19:43 > 0:19:48Birmingham 1905 and I've got on the book £25 bid.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52- Ouch.- 35, 40, 45,
0:19:52 > 0:19:5450, 55.
0:19:54 > 0:19:5760, back of the room now. 65?
0:19:57 > 0:19:5970, 75.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01£70 by the flowers then, at £70.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Do I see five anywhere else?
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Last chance. At £70...
0:20:06 > 0:20:09That's not too bad.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12That's minus 20. Disappointing.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Anyway, here come the leaded glass.
0:20:14 > 0:20:181531A, stained and leaded glass panel depicting
0:20:18 > 0:20:23Operative Printers Assistants Society, 1899.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25I've got to start at £60, with me at £60.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27- Yes.- Hey, we're back even.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31£60, 65 and 70. £70. 5 and 80.
0:20:31 > 0:20:335 and 90.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36- 5, 100.- Hey, boys. - £100 with me, still with me at £100.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40Do you want to bid 10? £100 with me on the book, still at £100.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42All done, last chance...
0:20:42 > 0:20:43- Hey.- I like that.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46£55 worth of profit, Serrell, that's good.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Now, the brass tray.
0:20:48 > 0:20:53So moving on to lot 1532A, an arts and crafts galleried tray.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56£35 bid with me, at £35, give me 40 now.
0:20:56 > 0:21:0238, 40, 45, 50.
0:21:02 > 0:21:03£50. Five, anyone?
0:21:03 > 0:21:05£50 against you, then, at £50.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07At £50, then, at £50.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11- Yeah.- Any further interest at £50? I'll sell. Last chance. £50.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14Done. That's another tenner, Phil, on your personal score.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Well, that's £45.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Now, I don't think I need to ask you whether you're going
0:21:19 > 0:21:22with the lighthouse or not, I think we should ask Phil if we should.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25I think we'll deaf that. I never liked that expert.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Now what are you going to do then?
0:21:27 > 0:21:31Are you going to go with the lighthouse? I mean, you're £45 up, that's very fair.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36You can bank the money or you can risk £45 on the granite lighthouse.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39Chop-chop, then, are we going to go? Yes, or no?
0:21:39 > 0:21:43- No.- All right. We're not going with the bonus buy but here it comes.
0:21:43 > 0:21:49Moving on to lot 1535A, a turned serpentine lighthouse lamp.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51£20 to start me for the lighthouse lamp? At £20?
0:21:51 > 0:21:53Tenner, then?
0:21:53 > 0:21:5610 is bid, thank you, at 10. At £10, looking for 12 now.
0:21:56 > 0:21:57At £10, by the wine at 10.
0:21:57 > 0:22:0012 with the lady. 15, sir?
0:22:00 > 0:22:0215, he's gone. 15, he's gone at £15.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05- 15. £15...- Wise call, boys.
0:22:05 > 0:22:0718, new face. Do you want 20, sir?
0:22:07 > 0:22:10No, he doesn't. £18 it is, then. Still £18.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13At £18 it is, then, selling at £18.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17Minus £27. Bad luck, Phil. That was a run of luck that just couldn't go on.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- It had to end somewhere. - So you deserved your profits.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24It was a good shout not going for it. You are £45 up, which is fab.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28- Just don't tell the Blues a thing, all right?- Right you are.- Mum.
0:22:42 > 0:22:46- So you two naughties, have you been talking to those Reds?- No.
0:22:46 > 0:22:47You don't know how they got on?
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Super. You've not been talking to anybody?
0:22:49 > 0:22:52- I who know nothing. - First up is the blotter.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56An Edwardian oak and silver mounted desk folder
0:22:56 > 0:22:58of arts and crafts design.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00£60 I'm bid, at £60.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02At £60, I'll take five, though.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06- 65 waving at the back, by the flowers and 70. 75...- Come on.
0:23:06 > 0:23:1180, 85. He's got it now at £85, looking for 90. 90, anywhere else?
0:23:11 > 0:23:13At £85, it's going at £85.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Oh, David, I'm disappointed at that.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17- Yes.- It's minus £10, but don't despair.
0:23:17 > 0:23:23Lot 1551A, early 20th century German brass and tin cigar cutter.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25£50 with me, straight in at £50.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28Looking for 5 now. £50, 55 and 60.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33- 65 and 70. 75 and 80. 85 and 90.- Yes.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35£90 against you still, at £90.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37£90, are you still bidding?
0:23:37 > 0:23:40No. With £90. 5 anywhere else?
0:23:40 > 0:23:42£90 then, all done at £90.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Last chance. £90.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Achtung!
0:23:47 > 0:23:51That's £25 on that, you are plus 15.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55Now girls, the glove packet.
0:23:55 > 0:23:581552A, Glasgow School embroidered glove pocket.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01And again, 25 is bid with me. At £25.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04At £25, I'll take 28.
0:24:04 > 0:24:0828 and 30, 32 and 35.
0:24:08 > 0:24:1235 against you, then. On the book at £35, commission bid at £35.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Do I see 38? At £35, then, and selling.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18All done, last chance, at £35.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21£35 there, another £10 profit, David, well done.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24You are £25 up.
0:24:24 > 0:24:25- It's amazing.- OK, £25 up.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- Is this man a genius or is he a genius?- He's very good.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- He's a genius, isn't he? - Astonishing.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32- She's very surprised.- Doubted me...
0:24:32 > 0:24:36Just a slight mishap on the blotter, which could have done much better.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38- Yeah. Disappointing.- But not bad.
0:24:38 > 0:24:39Two out of three profits, girls.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42So what are you going to do about this old basket?
0:24:42 > 0:24:47- This Knox Tudric basket?- I think we should go for it.- Do you fancy it? - I think we should go for it.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- Yeah? No pressure. - It's cracking, yeah.- We're going with the bonus buy,
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Lot 1555A,
0:24:52 > 0:24:57we have a Liberty & Co Tudric pewter cake basket.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01I've got £90 on the book, at £90, with me at £90. Looking for 5 now.
0:25:01 > 0:25:0595. 100, I'll take 5 if you like.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09And 10. 15, sir? £110 against you then, at £110.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12£110 and all done at £110.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14So that is a £10 profit, David,
0:25:14 > 0:25:18well done on that, and overall you are plus £35.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22The big trick here is to not tell those great big Red boys anything at all. OK?
0:25:22 > 0:25:25- So don't tell the Reds a thing, right?- OK.- OK, girls.
0:25:34 > 0:25:38Well, how exciting was that? It was absolutely brilliant today.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41I mean, smiles all round. This is unbelievable.
0:25:41 > 0:25:46Two teams of winners on Bargain Hunt today, it's just a question of scale
0:25:46 > 0:25:52of profit and the team with marginally less profits today
0:25:52 > 0:25:54are, of course, the Blues.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58But you've done so well, girls.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02£35 of profits you girls made, which is super.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04You got £25 out of the programme
0:26:04 > 0:26:08and another tenner out of David's Knox egg basket.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13I thought you'd like that.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16- £35. What are you going to do with that?- Spend it on gin, probably.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Spend it on gin. Fair enough.
0:26:18 > 0:26:23- Well, have a good time. Now, the victors.- Yes. - Nearly got you there, didn't I?
0:26:23 > 0:26:27- Just a little bit worried, yeah. - You were pretty cocky that you had won today.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29You have won, which is brilliant.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32You won in part by rejecting the bonus buy...
0:26:32 > 0:26:37- Yeah.- But on the other hand, you can't be crabby with Philip because he did contribute £55 worth...
0:26:37 > 0:26:43- He's brilliant.- ..of profits off the stained glass panel, which is jolly good. So you are £45 up, right?
0:26:43 > 0:26:47- Brilliant.- Thank you very much. - What are you going to spend it on?
0:26:47 > 0:26:50If they're going to spend it on gin, we'll spend it on beer.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54- Join us soon for some more Bargain Hunting, yes? - ALL: Yes!
