0:00:03 > 0:00:07Mm, how lovely to be out shopping. Now that I've got my lunch,
0:00:07 > 0:00:13I'm going to head up the other end of Portobello Road, so let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Welcome to Portobello Road market.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Famous worldwide for its market,
0:00:46 > 0:00:48it's actually a living movie set,
0:00:48 > 0:00:52with an incredible range of collectibles and stalls.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58And, to take full advantage, we've got a bumper bargain hunt for you today.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02A double-bill with not two, but four teams, trying to make a profit.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10Before they all get heady with excitement, let's remind ourselves of the rules.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14They each get £300 and an hour to find three items.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18They then take their items to auction and sell them off to the highest bidder.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21The team that makes the most money wins. Hurrah!
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Time to meet the first two teams.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28For the Reds, we've Mark and Tom.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32For the Blues, we've Mark and Andrew. Welcome to Bargain Hunt.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37You're best friends, and you agree on everything?
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- We agree on nothing pretty much. - Not really. We agreed to come on the show today
0:01:41 > 0:01:45and that we're going to try and find as many good things as possible.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47- For Bargain Hunt?- Exactly. - That's a relief!
0:01:47 > 0:01:52- Do you collect anything? - I collect horror film memorabilia.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56Really? What's it with you and horror?
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- I'm just a big horror fan. - Since you were a kid?
0:01:59 > 0:02:03- I used to always watch them on TV and love them. - Snuggle up with your teddy?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Not a ted any more, but I still watch them.
0:02:06 > 0:02:11- Tom, you're a salesman. - That's right.- Are those skills going to stand you in good stead?
0:02:11 > 0:02:14I hope so. I think I know a few tricks of the trade to look out for.
0:02:14 > 0:02:19- Like what?- Some of the leading questions, and what have you. Put a twist on it.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Hopefully, I'll get a few bargains.
0:02:21 > 0:02:26- This isn't frightening you boys, is it?- No!- Not at all.
0:02:26 > 0:02:31You don't look as if you scare easily. You're often mistaken for a policeman.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35- Why do you think that is? - It's my shiny shoes.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38A little bird tells me that you hate musicals
0:02:38 > 0:02:43but the absolutely adore opera, in particular, Carmen?
0:02:43 > 0:02:48I love Carmen. What a tramp! I like sassy women.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51- What, sassy big fat women? - Something like that.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56- Does that go for you, Andrew? Are you fond of big, fat, sassy woman? - I see a trend emerging!
0:02:56 > 0:03:00I do love the opera. I'm not dragged there, I like it a lot. We go often.
0:03:00 > 0:03:06What's the story about you going off to the south of France with a nightie and a pair of wellies?
0:03:06 > 0:03:10I did a dreadful deed to my brother. I was sharing a flat with him at the time and we fell out.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14- We didn't speak for months.- What sort of a dreadful deed was it?
0:03:14 > 0:03:17- It was a dreadful deed involving his girlfriend and myself.- Oh, my!
0:03:17 > 0:03:20I got stopped late at work, when I was going on holiday,
0:03:20 > 0:03:24and had to ring him and ask him to pack me a suitcase quickly.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27We then flew off to Nice. I arrived at the villa,
0:03:27 > 0:03:31- opened the suitcase and discovered two pairs of wellies and nightie. - LAUGHTER
0:03:31 > 0:03:36- How sweet is revenge?! No bathers?- No bathers. - No Hawaii Five-O shirts?- No.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Very funny. Well, that will teach you a lesson.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42What's about you wanting to become Paul Simon?
0:03:42 > 0:03:46My father is a musician and he lent money to struggling musicians
0:03:46 > 0:03:49and they would leave their instruments as security.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51We had lots of instruments to play with as children.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54I stuck with the guitar. I play classical guitar.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58- I wanted to be as good as Paul Simon.- That's a reasonable ambition.
0:03:58 > 0:04:04I hope today you finish up with diamonds on your soles! Now, the money moment. £300 apiece.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07You know the rules, your experts await.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Off you go!
0:04:09 > 0:04:14Don't forget, they've only got one hour to find their three items.
0:04:14 > 0:04:20Undeniably attractive, seductively informed and effortlessly cool -
0:04:20 > 0:04:22that's enough about me.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Let's meet the experts on hand today.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29For the Reds, he's not feral, it's just the look of him.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31It's Philip Serrell.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33A beast!
0:04:33 > 0:04:36And for the Blues, adored by many,
0:04:36 > 0:04:41revered by even more, it's the delectable David Barby.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45It's a big throng of the market and with so many items on display,
0:04:45 > 0:04:49our manly team should really get going with their buys.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51There are a couple down there.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Guys, what do you think?
0:04:54 > 0:05:01I thought the stallholder was just a little bit harsh, because he said there was sort of a...
0:05:01 > 0:05:03I can see it, actually.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Better looking, Phil!
0:05:07 > 0:05:08What is it?
0:05:08 > 0:05:12It's the dog's...inkwell.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16It's a boxer dog. It's got its collar round it. I think it's really wicked.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20You open him up by the ears, and I just think that's really lovely.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24I'd think it dates to about 1880. Two problems with it.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27In that that ear, has just been chipped and perhaps flattened off a bit there.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30It may have had glass eyes at one point in time.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32- Collectible?- Hugely so -
0:05:32 > 0:05:35to people who collect dog-related stuff,
0:05:35 > 0:05:37hugely to people who collect inkwells.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I'd love to own it.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41I like it. Do you like it?
0:05:41 > 0:05:45- It would appeal to different markets.- How much is it?
0:05:45 > 0:05:50That's the acid test. It's £120. If you can have a nice chat with the dealer, see if he'll...
0:05:50 > 0:05:55If you can get that for anything under £100,
0:05:55 > 0:05:56I hope we've got a result.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00- I'm up for it. - It's the dog's...!
0:06:00 > 0:06:04- Go on.- I'll give it a go. - Cheers, Phil.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06The boys paid £90 for the Philip lookalike,
0:06:06 > 0:06:09I mean, the boxer inkwell!
0:06:09 > 0:06:13- Well, that's very indulgent. Biscuits, what sort are they? - They're cookies.
0:06:13 > 0:06:20- I've been shopping. What do you think of this?- It's lovely. Is it a biscuit barrel?- No, it's not.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25I think, in fact, it is for cigars. I look at this and I think of the workmanship, first of all.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30We've got these lovely sections here, brass-banded.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35I can't help but think that this could have been an apprentice piece by a young cooper.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39- You know, barrel makers. - We live in Cooper's Lodge.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43That's absolutely brilliant. It's divine intervention.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46I think this is so good. This is a little lock here, which is Victorian.
0:06:46 > 0:06:53If you look carefully at the little flap that goes over the keyhole, it's VR, Victoria Regina.
0:06:55 > 0:06:56It's a lovely little box.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- What's the price? - It's 150.- That's a lot of money.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04Handle it first. You'll notice that these bands of brass,
0:07:04 > 0:07:08- they're a bit slack. - How does that happen?
0:07:08 > 0:07:13The wood shrinks. So, a little bit of glue, I think would work wonders on that.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16- Do you think we'd be able to get it down to 100?- We might be able to.
0:07:16 > 0:07:21- I can smile nicely. Would that help? - I think you'd be best trying to get that off.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23It's beautiful, isn't it?
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- Did you like that?- I do.
0:07:26 > 0:07:31- I think it's quite good, being from Cooper's Lodge.- Yes.
0:07:31 > 0:07:37David's impeccable manners brought the goodies home for £100.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40That makes the math easy, £200 to go.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43I don't know. Where has he gone?
0:07:43 > 0:07:46He's around here somewhere. I presume he's out scouring for bargains.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I hope so. There he is.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- I found a nice little silver object. - How do you know it's silver? - Because of the hallmark.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53The boy is cute, isn't he?
0:07:53 > 0:07:56This indeed has got a hallmark, just in here.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Assayed in Birmingham. The lion pattern says it's silver.
0:07:58 > 0:08:04There's a little E there, I'd think this is early 20th century.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- We don't actually know what it does, do we? - Is it a clip of some sort?
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- How much is it?- She wants £45 for it.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15- What do you think it's worth? - Hopefully a lot more than that, but...
0:08:15 > 0:08:19- What do you reckon at auction? - You're asking me what it's going to make at auction
0:08:19 > 0:08:23- but you don't know what it is. - It's nice.- It's nice but we don't know what it is. What is it?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25You're going to have to tell us.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26- It's a napkin clip.- Oh, right.
0:08:26 > 0:08:31So, just when you're about to sit down to your eight-course meal,
0:08:31 > 0:08:37you slide your napkin in there and pull the clip down and hook it into your collar just there.
0:08:37 > 0:08:42- Now you know what that is, does it make you feel better?- I like to know what it is.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- So you're happy you want to buy it? - I like it.- I'm happy.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- You're both convinced that you can get a profit on that?- It'll go well.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- If we get it down a tenner or even more?- If you can do it.- Even more.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- I'll try.- Give it your best. Good luck, mate.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- How do you think he'll get on? - He's not a bad negotiator.
0:08:59 > 0:09:00I hope he is, for your sake!
0:09:03 > 0:09:05That's faith for you!
0:09:05 > 0:09:12Mark picked up the napkin holders for £35, leaving the Reds £175 still to spend.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14What do you think?
0:09:14 > 0:09:20- He looks so sad.- Rather poignant. - What do you think of this?- I think that's a better bet than this thing.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Look at that. It's like a spy plane.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Yes. What date do you think it is?
0:09:25 > 0:09:31- 1950s?- 1940s, 1950s. - It's got some Art-Deco step features coming off down here.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35- Look, the lighter comes out here. - I thought it was an ejector seat!
0:09:37 > 0:09:40You've got the flint going in there and I guess the gas goes in there.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- That's right.- It fits quite snugly.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47- So what kind of money are we talking about?- I think they wanted £75?
0:09:47 > 0:09:50It's quite a lot of money, isn't it, even for a collector's piece?
0:09:50 > 0:09:54I think you ought to get it down to about 60, maybe £50. That sort of price range.
0:09:54 > 0:09:59- We should go for it.- I like it. - I like it very much. - As long as you don't play with it!
0:10:04 > 0:10:08At £52, let's hope it soars at auction.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10- He's got something.- Flying saucer!
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Here's Tom.
0:10:12 > 0:10:17- What do you think, guys? - I quite like it, it's an advertising tray for a well-known whisky brand.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- People collect this.- That's what I thought.- Do you like it?- I do.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23What's it made of?
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- Copper.- Top shout. How old is it?
0:10:25 > 0:10:30- Not sure. That's where I was hoping you would come in.- I would think it is probably 1950s, '60s.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34- How much is it?- It's on for 25 quid. - What would you pay for this?
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Would we turn a profit on 15 quid, d'you reckon?
0:10:37 > 0:10:40- Get a tenner off it? - Who is going to pay that for it?
0:10:40 > 0:10:45- People who collect.- People that have pubs, might like old drink memorabilia, country pubs.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47You're absolutely right, this has got two markets, really,
0:10:47 > 0:10:49one is to decorate a pub.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53The other is there are people who collect alcohol-related items.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56It's £25, and you're gonna get it down.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Get a tenner off, 15 quid.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00You won't lose a lot, will you? Might make a bit.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03See what you can do. Whatever you can get knocked off,
0:11:03 > 0:11:06go and spend it on three large brandies for us.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08OK, will do. Cheers!
0:11:08 > 0:11:11- He's enthusiastic, isn't he? - Anything to do with alcohol, yeah.
0:11:11 > 0:11:17That enthusiasm must have rubbed off. Tom's purchase, £15.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Hang on, guys, what do you think of this?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22I know why you like that.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26It's an elephant and a monkey, what's not to like?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29That's nice. It's got its original glass as well.
0:11:29 > 0:11:30What d'you think of that?
0:11:30 > 0:11:37Again, it's one of these quirky objects. And it makes me think of Queen Victoria.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41The British Empire, yeah.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Originally, it would have been all silver plate, you can see, and that has worn off.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48We've got a base metal which I think is spelter.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51- But it's beautifully carved.- It is. What's the price, the label's there?
0:11:51 > 0:11:54The price is scary, the price is 250.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Oh!- That's way, way too much.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59- Far too much.- A tiny dent there.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03I don't think it's anything to worry about considering its age.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07I'd date that around 1860, 1870.
0:12:07 > 0:12:13OK. I'm going to leave you two to negotiate, but you've got to get it down considerably, almost by half.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- You won't do that.- I've never paid full price for anything.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21- I don't want to know about your personal life. Do your very best.- I will!
0:12:21 > 0:12:29Andrew didn't shy away from David's challenge, getting the inkwell for £120.
0:12:29 > 0:12:335, 4, 3, 2, whoops, 1.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35That's it, the time is up.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Let's recap on what the Reds bought.
0:12:37 > 0:12:43Philip's convinced that someone, somewhere, will want the inkwell in the form of a boxer dog.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Let's hope so. £90 paid.
0:12:46 > 0:12:52Mark's natty little napkin-holder only set him back £35.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54So thrifty.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58And the Reds' final item, something tipple-inspired,
0:12:58 > 0:13:04Tom whisked up a deal on the tray and paid £15.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- Boys, did you have a good time shopping?- Wicked time.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- "Wicked time"?- Wicked time!
0:13:09 > 0:13:14- Which is your favourite piece? - I like the piece that I found, the silver serviette clip.
0:13:14 > 0:13:21- Oh, yes. What about you?- The dog head, the inkwell, I like that.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23You spent a pretty mean £140.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25So I'll take 160 off you. Thank you.
0:13:25 > 0:13:31Now, Philip, your challenge, to go and find that bonus buy with that cash, how are you going to get on?
0:13:31 > 0:13:35I'm going to box clever and come up something that might just do a turn.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38- Would this "box clever" be a bit of a hint?- Couldn't say.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Couldn't possibly say, could you?
0:13:40 > 0:13:44Let's remind ourselves of what the Blues bought.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Only time will tell
0:13:46 > 0:13:51whether there was a whiff of a profit with the £100 cigar box.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54A soaring silver sensation,
0:13:54 > 0:13:58the cigarette plane lighter swooped in at £52.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01And what price for a piece of Victoriana?
0:14:01 > 0:14:07£120 brought the Blues a novelty elephant's head inkwell.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Unforgettable!
0:14:09 > 0:14:11So, you two boys, did you enjoy the shopping?
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- Absolutely. A fantastic time. - It was very good. Lovely time.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20- Spending somebody else's money. - Always the best kind.
0:14:20 > 0:14:27You spent a magnificent £272. So proud of that. We'd like £28 to go across to David.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28Not an awful lot, is it?
0:14:28 > 0:14:33No, but you've made all sorts of wonderful profits out of small value items.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Well, that's true.
0:14:35 > 0:14:41I want something small, quirky and emblematic of Andrew's interest.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45- Oh, Lord!- Better not elaborate on that.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- Later, perhaps!- OK.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52Auction time. Let's get started.
0:14:54 > 0:15:01Well, we've staggered down from London to West Sussex, to Wisborough Green, Bellman's Saleroom,
0:15:01 > 0:15:03to be with Jonathan at our auction.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- Good morning.- Good morning.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Tom and Mark, their first item is this little inkwell - do you rate that?
0:15:09 > 0:15:12It's nicely carved. These novelties are quite good fun.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15He's a little bit incomplete. His ears have been chewed away.
0:15:15 > 0:15:21That's a pity, because some of these things do make big sums of money, particularly the larger ones.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25- What's your estimate? - £50 to £70.- Oh, dear, £90 they paid.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Now, the hallmarked silver little napkin-holder.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Are you fond of a big French dinner?
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Well, you know, un oeuf is un oeuf.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Yes, quite. But for the big Frenchman,
0:15:36 > 0:15:43traditionally, he'd have a socking great damask napkin and he'd pin it up with that, which is handy.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46- What's your estimate on it? - £15 to £20.
0:15:46 > 0:15:52Oh, right. £35 they paid. And lastly is the Johnnie Walker's copper tray.
0:15:52 > 0:15:56No well-dressed pub would be without one of these in the '20s and '30s.
0:15:56 > 0:16:01I think people are less likely to be wanting to clean these things today.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03- So I find that a bit of a tough one. - What's the estimate?
0:16:03 > 0:16:05I've still said £20 - £30.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Oh, that's great, they paid 15.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10So there is some hope with one of these objects.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13So I think they're going to need their bonus buy. Let's go and have a look at it.
0:16:15 > 0:16:20So, tell me, Mark - you spent £140, you gave Philip £160, what did he spend it on?
0:16:20 > 0:16:24Isn't that lovely?
0:16:24 > 0:16:27It's a snuff box, French, probably about 1820.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31It's elm. I paid £65 for that.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34- What'll it make at auction? - What d'you reckon?
0:16:34 > 0:16:38I'd put an estimate on that of £60-£90. I wouldn't be surprised if it topped £100.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41- It's all right, isn't it? What do you reckon?- If there's enough snuff collectors out there
0:16:41 > 0:16:43that come to the auction, then, yeah.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- You can see them running away... - I don't know!
0:16:46 > 0:16:51You don't have to decide to take it right now.
0:16:51 > 0:16:57But for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Philip's little snuffbox.
0:16:57 > 0:17:03- That's rather fun, Jonathan, isn't it?- Absolutely. Nice snuffbox there. French one.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05I know it's French, because it says "la pie voleuse"!
0:17:05 > 0:17:09- Sounds painful.- You can get tablets for that, can't you?- Yes.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12It's something to do with the magpie nicking something.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16Absolutely. There's our magpie there, he's got a spoon in his beak.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19They're collectible things.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23It's going to be something which in that respect is going to be a rarity as such.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26- You might get £40 to £60.- Philip Serrell paid £65, and he's hopeful.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30That's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues - Mark and Andrew.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33Their first item is this rather fun cigar box.
0:17:33 > 0:17:37I like the contrasting woods, gives it that extra definition.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41It is made in the way you'd expect a barrel to be coopered.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45- Yeah.- It's got a lovely lock on the front here which is stamped VR
0:17:45 > 0:17:48for Victoria's cipher, which is a nice period feature as well.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50We'll get between £40 and £60 for it.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Ah. David Barby will be distrait.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56£100 paid. How are you on spy planes?
0:17:56 > 0:17:58I know nothing about spy planes.
0:17:58 > 0:18:03- I know a little bit about decorative lighters. - This is a popular theme, isn't it?
0:18:03 > 0:18:09You get different periods, different planes, contemporary aeroplanes modelled as table lighters.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- Absolutely. - It's down as a spy plane, cos I suppose it looks like the U2
0:18:12 > 0:18:16which crashed over Russia when the Cuban Missile Crisis was going on.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20The novelty element, the fact it is a plane and it's a lighter,
0:18:20 > 0:18:27and certainly the fact you've got this sort of stylised Deco feel to it, it's late-'40s styling on it.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29We are looking at about £20 or £30 for it.
0:18:29 > 0:18:34Is that all? £52 paid. And now we've got a heffalump down the end,
0:18:34 > 0:18:38with a monkey on its head playing a flute,
0:18:38 > 0:18:39which is a bit bizarre!
0:18:39 > 0:18:44Again, novelty inkwells, your market is the gentleman, the desk.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Of course there is a strong market for that sort of thing.
0:18:47 > 0:18:52- And what we will get for that? Well, crikey. £30 to £50, I would say.- Crikey.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54£120 they paid.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59One thing's for certain here, they are going to need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03Mark and Andrew, you spent £272, quite magnificent,
0:19:03 > 0:19:07leaving David with a miserable £28 to go and try and find something.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09- David, what did you find? - Well, I like it.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13- Oh.- "Oh"! - TIM LAUGHS
0:19:13 > 0:19:17- It's something you put your nuts in, you see?- I quite like the glass.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19And you're a cat lover, aren't you?
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Well, it died.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25But, yeah, I WAS a cat lover till it died.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Poor thing. This is ideal for ashes!
0:19:28 > 0:19:34- It's very sweet. How much was it? - £15.- That's a bargain. How much do you reckon people would pay?
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Well, it's the stylised cat, I think it's quite attractive.
0:19:37 > 0:19:44- Probably round about £20, £25. - Let the man have a handle. - I like that actually, yeah.
0:19:44 > 0:19:45You've done the right thing there, David, obviously.
0:19:45 > 0:19:51Let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about David's little cat.
0:19:51 > 0:19:56- Right then. There you go. - OK.- You a cat lover yourself?
0:19:56 > 0:19:57I've got two dogs.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01- Then you're the right man to ask about this(!)- Exactly.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Whether it's '70s, I don't know.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Moulded glass, cats. Whatever it might be,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09I suppose you could grow watercress in it and give it a trim!
0:20:09 > 0:20:11What are you going to do with it?
0:20:11 > 0:20:15Barby's bought it as his bonus buy. He only paid £15 for it.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Might he just... might he get a profit on it?
0:20:17 > 0:20:23- I think probably there's about a fiver's loss in this one.- And that's being optimistic, is it?
0:20:23 > 0:20:26I've put £10 to £15 on it, and that's probably fair.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30It'll be interesting to see what happens in the auction. Thank you, Jonathan.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40- Tom and Mark, are you feeling cool? - Pretty cool.- Relaxed.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45- Come on, there must be a bit of nerves.- I'm feeling it now.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48I'm feeling it a bit now. Holding it together.
0:20:48 > 0:20:54- It is nervous process, isn't it? You know about auctions. What about you, Mark?- I've never been.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Just online auctions, which is a lot more relaxed.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59- Not full of people. - Nothing like this?- No.
0:20:59 > 0:21:00The treen inkwell.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Philip found it.
0:21:02 > 0:21:03£90 paid.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07The auctioneer has estimated £50 to £70.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09And here it comes.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Inkwell modelled as a boxer dog's head.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16I've got a lot of interest in this, and I can start straight in at £70.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20Bid with me at 70. Looking for 75. It's £70. 75, and 80?
0:21:20 > 0:21:2585, and 90? 95, 100?
0:21:25 > 0:21:27£100 against you, sir, at £100.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30110 if you like. 110, standing close to commission now at £110.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35120, anyone? £110 then, in the tartan at £110, and selling, 120 behind.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36Look, he's going on.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41- 130.- Yes!- 140.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44150. 160.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47£160, behind then still at 160.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Last chance and selling for £160. GAVEL BANGS
0:21:50 > 0:21:53160, plus £70. Well done, boys.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56We have a silver baby's bib clip,
0:21:56 > 0:22:00a nice, interesting lot, this. And I have to start at £20.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01It's bid with me at £20.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04I'll take 22. 22, 25. 28, and 30.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08£30, against you then at £30. Do I see 32?
0:22:08 > 0:22:12On the book and against you all at £30, last chance at 30.
0:22:12 > 0:22:18£30, bad luck, that's minus £5. You're still plus 65. Here we go.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22We have the copper advertising tray. Start me at 10. 10 is bid.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Thank you, sir. At 10. Do I see 12?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26£10, seated right. £10. 12, anyone?
0:22:26 > 0:22:30At £10, surely worth more than a tenner? I'll sell at £10.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Maiden bid at £10.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Blast it. £10, minus 5 on that.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42You are still plus £60. £60 up, thanks to you-know-who.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44- Amazing.- It's pretty good, isn't it?
0:22:44 > 0:22:48What are we going to do then? Are we going to risk anything for this bonus buy?
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- I think we should stick, mate. - Stick, yeah.- No offence, Phil.
0:22:51 > 0:22:56- No.- No bonus buy. They are determined, these boys. We're going to sell it anyway. Here it comes.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59A carved elm circular snuffbox.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Early 19th century,
0:23:00 > 0:23:02with this interesting scene.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06And I've got bids to start me in at £45.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10Is bid at £45, looking for 50, now. And 50, and 55. 60, and 65.
0:23:10 > 0:23:1370, and 75. 80, and 85.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16£85 commission against you at £85.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Do I see 90 now? At £85, and I'll sell at £85.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Last chance, £85.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Well done. You made your decision, you're £60 up.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27You deserved your £60.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30- It's very good, isn't it? - We are happy about that.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33To make a profit on Bargain Hunt is an achievement.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36The thing now is not to tell the Blues anything. Don't say a word.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40- In fact, go out looking miserable. - OK.- It's not hard.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43Rubbish. You've done well. And well done, Phil.
0:23:43 > 0:23:44- Yeah, thank you.- Cheers, Phil.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56So, Mark and Andrew, do you know how the Reds got on?
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- No. No idea at all.- That's good.
0:23:58 > 0:24:04Cos we don't want you to. How are you rating your little cigar box?
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Do you still think that's a good choice of David's?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09- I think so, yeah.- Very confident.
0:24:09 > 0:24:14The auctioneer has only put £40 to £60 on it, which I think is pretty miserable, actually.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16- Yes, so do I.- We all rate it.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19It's a nice crowded room. Here it comes.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23We have a Victorian brass coopered tobacco cigar box
0:24:23 > 0:24:28And I've got a flurry of bids, and I'll start at 45, 55,
0:24:28 > 0:24:32£60 on the book with me, at £60, I'm bid at £60.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35£60, looking for 65. At £60, 65, anyone?
0:24:35 > 0:24:37On the book against you all at £60.
0:24:37 > 0:24:3965. And 70. £70 it is then.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Against you all at £70. At 70, I'll sell then.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45£70, last chance, at 70?
0:24:45 > 0:24:49- Bad luck. Minus 30 on that. - It's not looking good.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Maybe not. Here comes the plane.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55A chromium plated table lighter in the form of a spy plane.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59Mid-20th century example, this. Where can I start?
0:24:59 > 0:25:01- I've got £60.- Yes!
0:25:01 > 0:25:05Looking for 65, now. 65, and 70.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08£70 and stopping straightaway at £70. 5 anywhere else?
0:25:08 > 0:25:11At £70, I'll sell. All done at 70.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13Well, that makes you £18.
0:25:13 > 0:25:18- It's not all doom and gloom.- All is not lost.- The inkwell.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Victorian spelter novelty inkwell modelled as an elephant's head
0:25:22 > 0:25:24with this little monkey sitting on the top.
0:25:24 > 0:25:29And I've got bids to start me in at £30, £35, £40 is bid.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32At £40, 45. 50, 55,
0:25:32 > 0:25:38- 60, 65, 70, £70 against you. 75, anyone?- Come on!
0:25:38 > 0:25:41£70 against you all at 70. I'll sell at £70.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45Last chance at £70. All done? No more. £70.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51That is minus 50 quid on that.
0:25:51 > 0:25:57- You're minus £62.- Dear, oh, dear. - Minus £62.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59What are you going to do about the cat?
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- Let's just go for it. - Definitely going to go for it.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04What's the worst that could happen?
0:26:04 > 0:26:08- Let's go for it. - Are you going to do it?
0:26:08 > 0:26:13- Yes, definitely.- You're determined. - Absolutely, yes. Let's do it.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17We have this wonderful moulded clear glass bowl modelled as a cat,
0:26:17 > 0:26:20and I have a bid to start me at £12.
0:26:20 > 0:26:24£12 is bid. £12, I'll take 15 if you wish to bid.
0:26:24 > 0:26:2615 standing at the back waving now.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30Left on commission at 15. Looking for 18.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33At £15, with the lady, dead ahead at £15 and selling.
0:26:33 > 0:26:41- Last chance, £15. - £15. Wiped its face.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45Well, chaps. What a roller coaster, eh?
0:26:45 > 0:26:48- Dear oh dear. - Well done for the plane, anyway.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51That was really super. I'll tell you what, Mum's the word.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55We'll reveal all in a minute.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Bad luck for the Blues, the Reds are top dogs!
0:27:07 > 0:27:14But don't go away, because coming up, we have two more teams waiting at Portobello Market.
0:27:14 > 0:27:18- If it does make a profit, I'll eat my hat.- I'll hold you to it!
0:27:18 > 0:27:23Something tells me the experts will have their work cut out with this little lot.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26- Tell me about it. - Solid mahogany wood.- Yeah.
0:27:26 > 0:27:31What other sort of mahogany would you have?!
0:27:31 > 0:27:34We'll meet those jokers very shortly.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37First, I'd like to take you in a detour across town.
0:27:40 > 0:27:48In London, in 1851, Hyde Park bore witness to the grand opening of the first ever international exhibition,
0:27:48 > 0:27:51enthusiastically championed by Prince Albert.
0:27:51 > 0:27:57The Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations in 1851, to give it its full title,
0:27:57 > 0:28:01was designed to appeal to all classes.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04The exhibition was such a huge success that at the finish,
0:28:04 > 0:28:10the organisers found that they'd got a profit of £186,000,
0:28:10 > 0:28:17largely made up by 4.5 million people investing in one shilling tickets.
0:28:17 > 0:28:23And it was with the profit that Prince Albert was ultimately able to fund what became this place,
0:28:23 > 0:28:26the Victoria and Albert Museum.
0:28:34 > 0:28:38Here we are in the National Art Library, at the V&A,
0:28:38 > 0:28:43who've got the complete set of the original exhibition catalogue,
0:28:43 > 0:28:45100,000 odd objects.
0:28:45 > 0:28:53The exhibits were recorded, and this is just one volume out of that massive set.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57What was so special about the objects in the Great Exhibition?
0:28:57 > 0:29:00Let's find out.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04Some of the exhibits were made for mass manufacture.
0:29:04 > 0:29:0940 countries were exhibiting, in addition to the United Kingdom, in the Great Exhibition,
0:29:09 > 0:29:15including a German firm who came up with this novel idea for a rocking armchair.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18We've got some central-heating pipe here,
0:29:18 > 0:29:23that's been bent into this shaped rocker form,
0:29:23 > 0:29:26then all joined-up with an upholstered section,
0:29:26 > 0:29:31which is extremely comfortable, and this went into mass production.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35Funnily enough, I've got one at home, and they work.
0:29:35 > 0:29:40The big question is, will our teams come up with anything that's going to be popular with the masses?
0:29:40 > 0:29:43We've got a double-bill today
0:29:43 > 0:29:47which means double trouble for our experts.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49So let's head back to London's Portobello Market
0:29:49 > 0:29:53for our second helping of bargain hunting!
0:29:58 > 0:30:01We've got Prudence and her workmate, Mitch.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03- Oh, no, it's Michael or Mike, preferably.- Never Mitch?
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Never Mitch, unless I'm in Baywatch maybe.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08OK, well we're not doing Baywatch so you're safe there.
0:30:08 > 0:30:12And for the Blues, we've got Joe and his friend, Carlie. Hiya.
0:30:12 > 0:30:13- Hi, Tim.- Lovely. Now Prudence...
0:30:13 > 0:30:17- Hello, Tim.- What do you do for a job at work, darling?
0:30:17 > 0:30:19I work for a recruitment company in the City of London.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22- But what do you do in your spare time?- I love to sing jazz, Tim.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26- Ooh.- I do, yes, very much. - Do you do clubs and that? - I do, I go round London
0:30:26 > 0:30:29and do different clubs and bars, and I love it.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32Are you going to give us a little trill?
0:30:32 > 0:30:34How about we do a little private show later?
0:30:34 > 0:30:39I see, it's like that, is it? Now what sort of track record have you got, Michael?
0:30:39 > 0:30:43I've done a bit of online bidding recently, bought a few cars online.
0:30:43 > 0:30:49Um, had a few good experiences, a few bad experiences, and at one stage I owned about five VWs.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52That's a fleet, that is.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54I was living at home as well, so I had to hide one round
0:30:54 > 0:30:56a neighbour's house, one was outside my house...
0:30:56 > 0:31:01Popular with your parents, I should think. Five motor cars!
0:31:01 > 0:31:05Now for the Blues. How are you two? How did you two meet?
0:31:05 > 0:31:08I'm best mates with her boyfriend, and we actually met
0:31:08 > 0:31:11at an American football game that he was actually involved in.
0:31:11 > 0:31:13I can tell that you're not from these shores. Where do you come from?
0:31:13 > 0:31:15- From New Jersey in the US. - What are you doing here?
0:31:15 > 0:31:20I was brought over here by a Master's programme at King's College London
0:31:20 > 0:31:21in Criminology and Criminal Justice.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24Criminology and criminal justice.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Yes. I plan to go in the FBI, so...
0:31:26 > 0:31:29But you haven't got the suit or the shiny shoes.
0:31:29 > 0:31:34No, right, no, I'm trying to blend in into London, you know, with the dull shoes and the jeans.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36You're obviously incognito, aren't you?
0:31:36 > 0:31:39Right. No, that's CIA. That's a whole other story.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41- Oh, is that not...?- Mum's the word.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43FBI, they never do incognito?
0:31:43 > 0:31:48And why have you chosen Carlie rather than her boyfriend?
0:31:48 > 0:31:53Well, I thought of using her boyfriend, but when I thought, "Who looks best on camera?"
0:31:53 > 0:31:56- It was Carlie by far. - Do you know, you're right. So Carlie, were you flattered to be asked?
0:31:56 > 0:31:59I was, absolutely, absolutely, I thought it'd be a lot of fun.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Do you collect anything?
0:32:01 > 0:32:03Not what you would regard as antiques as yet.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05I've got a bit of a shoe passion.
0:32:05 > 0:32:09- How many pairs you got? - I've probably got on the last count over 60, 70 pairs of shoes.
0:32:09 > 0:32:12- That's a fetish, don't worry about it.- Potentially.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Now, the money moment.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18Here's your sausage and mash. You know the rules, off you go!
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Watch out for the apples and pears.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36So, tell me, princess...
0:32:36 > 0:32:39No, I don't wear it like this, I think I prefer it like this.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41Oh, you're after a cool look.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44- Where is she?- Pru? I don't know, She should be coming soon.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46- Oh.- She's over here. - Look what I found.- What's that?
0:32:46 > 0:32:49Isn't it rather gorgeous? It's a lovely silver handbag.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53I thought it's lovely. I thought I'd see what Phil thought
0:32:53 > 0:32:56and see what's the best price according to our expert.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58How do you know it's silver?
0:32:58 > 0:33:01- Mm, because of that stamp. - That stamp there.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03- And what does that stamp there mean? - No idea.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05That stamp there's a little lion,
0:33:05 > 0:33:07that tells us that it is indeed silver.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10- OK.- That leopard's head tells us that it was assayed in London.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14That F is the date code, which is, I would guess is around 1900.
0:33:14 > 0:33:20- OK.- So you've got a silver frame, and this mesh bag here, and actually what is quite nice...- Yeah.
0:33:20 > 0:33:22- I'm sure you spotted this. - Of course I did, yes.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Is that each of these links is separately hallmarked.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27- That's lovely. - Which is really cool.
0:33:27 > 0:33:30Yeah, I did notice that, I was just about to say.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33- Right.- It's quite heavy, isn't it?
0:33:33 > 0:33:36What do you reckon, princess? Is that...?
0:33:36 > 0:33:38I think it's quite heavy.
0:33:38 > 0:33:43Heavy should mean quite costly. It's got marks on all of it, so that must be quite a good sign.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47Bargain Hunt's about your day, and I want you to buy what you want to buy.
0:33:47 > 0:33:51If this came into my sale room, I'd estimate it
0:33:51 > 0:33:54at £50 to £80, £60 to £90, that sort of region. How much is it?
0:33:54 > 0:33:56185.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59# There may be trouble ahead... #
0:34:01 > 0:34:05Ha, Prudence got £50 off, but she'll have to face the music at the auction.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15Excuse me, sir. Guys, come here, come here.
0:34:15 > 0:34:16What's that?
0:34:16 > 0:34:19- Look at that.- Ooh. - Those are very nice, aren't they?
0:34:19 > 0:34:21They're fantastic, aren't they?
0:34:21 > 0:34:25- Oh, look, Poile and Smith, court jewellers.- What does that mean?
0:34:25 > 0:34:29Well, that company produced jewellery for the court.
0:34:29 > 0:34:34It could have been court regalia, it could have been court awards.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37If you wore expensive buttons like this it would show that you're quite affluent.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40So they were a quite important piece of dress.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44They're looking back to the Georgian style with all these sort of Rococo scroll works.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46- They are lovely. - I think they're gorgeous.
0:34:46 > 0:34:50Yeah, my only concern is the fact that the hallmarks, where they're present,
0:34:50 > 0:34:53where the makers' marks are present, they're a bit worn.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55So consistency might be an issue.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58Oh, not at all, these are collectors' items.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00I think they're going to sell extremely well.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03- So how much were they? - They were £85.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05£85. I think they're cheap at £85.
0:35:05 > 0:35:09- Really?- Yeah. They're very good collectors' items, particularly with the court jewellers.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11I'd pay £85 for them. If you can get them less...
0:35:11 > 0:35:13- I think we can.- All well and good.
0:35:13 > 0:35:15- And you think they're stunning. - I do.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18- I think they're stunning. - I think they're stunning.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21- Good, we agree.- Let's go haggle. - Let's do it.- Come on!
0:35:21 > 0:35:26Carlie loved Joe's crown jewels, and managed to get them down to £65.
0:35:33 > 0:35:37?I don't know where Philip is. Let's go and have a look for him.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40- Why don't we use our compass to find him?- Oh, there he is, there.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Oh, there he is.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45- Hi.- Well, well, it works.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47I think that's absolutely lovely.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49- I've just bought it. - You've bought it?
0:35:49 > 0:35:51- Don't tell me how much.- Let me sell it into you a little bit.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Go on, then, tell me all about it.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55- Solid mahogany wood.- Yeah.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58What other sort of mahogany would you have?
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Solid mahogany wood,
0:36:01 > 0:36:03hinges still intact...
0:36:03 > 0:36:05- Yeah. - Quite often the hinges go on these.
0:36:05 > 0:36:10- Nice, possibly brass edging. - How old did he tell you it was? - I think he said 1950s, possibly.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12- No, it's earlier than that. - Is it?
0:36:12 > 0:36:15I would think that perhaps it's more like 1900 or even a bit earlier.
0:36:15 > 0:36:20- OK.- I think it's probably £30 to £50 worth.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22OK. We've got good news and bad news.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26- OK, so what's the good news?- The good news is that I did some mean...
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- Mean negotiating. - Mean haggling, yeah.
0:36:29 > 0:36:33- So what was he asking for it? - He was asking 80 for it. And I got it for 65.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35- Oh, good negotiation.- Yeah.
0:36:35 > 0:36:39- Right...- I was only 15 quid off the top, the top...
0:36:39 > 0:36:42No, honestly, I like your style, princess, I do like your style,
0:36:42 > 0:36:46but I'm just a bit bothered actually that we might be in trouble here.
0:36:46 > 0:36:51All we can do really is just live in hope, isn't it?
0:36:51 > 0:36:53- Well, I think it's... - I think it's rather nice, yeah.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02Now, don't forget the bonus buy.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06That's where the money not spent by the teams is given to the expert,
0:37:06 > 0:37:12who goes to find another item which hopefully will make even more at auction.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16More of that later, right now it's on with the shopping.
0:37:16 > 0:37:17Watch yourself, yeah.
0:37:17 > 0:37:20- I love it, I love it. - Put it back, you don't know where it's been.- Oh, I love it.
0:37:20 > 0:37:22You haven't bought it, have you?
0:37:22 > 0:37:23You haven't bought it?
0:37:23 > 0:37:26You have, haven't you?
0:37:26 > 0:37:28Well, what would you say if we had?
0:37:28 > 0:37:32I'd like to have seen it first. How much did you pay for it?
0:37:32 > 0:37:36We paid £36.50 I think in the end.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39- £36.50.- But it...but it was 40.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42- 48 actually.- Was it 48?- Yeah. - OK. Just tell me why you went for it.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46Because I think any girl would like it.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49This is a tourist piece. Late 19th early, 20th century, bought in Bavaria,
0:37:49 > 0:37:53probably they paid a visit to Oberammergau, something like that.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56And they thought, "We'll take that back to Louise," their daughter
0:37:56 > 0:37:59back home. This is what it is, a tourist piece.
0:37:59 > 0:38:04It has got some concessions, I like this element of carving here which
0:38:04 > 0:38:08is reminiscent of art nouveau, but they're almost commonplace. It's nothing exceptional.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12But it is quite cheap. If it's commonplace a lot of people would like it, people will bid for it.
0:38:12 > 0:38:13That's true. I'm sure it'll make a profit.
0:38:13 > 0:38:19- I'll tell you something, if it does make a profit, I'll eat my hat. - I'll hold you to it.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Phil, what have you found?
0:38:23 > 0:38:27Look, great thing, Georgian tea caddy, mahogany, 150 quid.
0:38:27 > 0:38:28- Yes?- Too expensive.
0:38:28 > 0:38:32- Nah, nah, I don't think so Phil. - Too expensive.- Good try, good try.
0:38:38 > 0:38:39This is a great thing, look.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43Victorian three piece tea set, £70. Can't fail.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44No, I'm more of a coffee man, Phil.
0:38:49 > 0:38:52Hi, there's a really lovely big pewter...
0:38:54 > 0:38:59It's actually a really lovely pewter tankard, and they've walked past me.
0:39:08 > 0:39:13At a distance that looks like Faberge.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16- That's a bit more like it. - Faberge, Faberge.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Yeah, the trouble is the distance is about 300 yards.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21- Well, how big's the auction house? - Not that big.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25- Why do you like that?- I just think it's a rather nice thing. - What about you, princess?
0:39:25 > 0:39:29I don't know, it's quite cool. I could find a use for it, a shot glass.
0:39:29 > 0:39:34Big shot glass. I think it's quite nice, it's quite bright and vibrant.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36- I think it's really nice, right. - Oh, thanks.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39And these colours look like it might be Russian, so it looks like
0:39:39 > 0:39:41- a little Russian drinking glass. - OK.- OK.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45- Possibly by Faberge, but I don't think it's Russian. - It's got a small marking there.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48There's a mark on the bottom which I don't understand at all.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50- Gold? Gold mark?- No. Absolutely not.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53I would think it's European, might be Italian.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56I don't think it's as old as it wants you to think it is,
0:39:56 > 0:39:59and it's trying to be Faberge which it isn't.
0:39:59 > 0:40:03So in my eyes, at auction, that's £15 to £30.
0:40:03 > 0:40:08- On a bad day it's a tenner. So how much did you pay?- You can tell him.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11- 50 quid.- What? - SHE CHUCKLES
0:40:11 > 0:40:14Well, we were in a bit of a rush, Phil, you see.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16We though, "Well, we'll take it."
0:40:16 > 0:40:18It's all gone rather well today, hasn't it?
0:40:18 > 0:40:21We look like we're going to make a mint, Phil.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24I'm just going to go and find myself a huge hole
0:40:24 > 0:40:25to see if I can bury myself in it.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28- Do you want a drink? - No, I'm fine, thanks.
0:40:28 > 0:40:33Well, despite Philip's disapproval, the Red Team snapped up the tumbler for £50.
0:40:33 > 0:40:38Now, let's see what Agent Scully has sniffed out for the Blues' final item.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46- Oh, that sounds promising. - Oh, Joe...
0:40:46 > 0:40:48- Is it decent?- Well, I think so.
0:40:48 > 0:40:52I think that's quite good. Now, tell me what you think about it.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54- It's a really charming piece. - So what do you put in it?
0:40:54 > 0:40:59I don't know, a port, red wine, maybe even a hard liquor of some sort, like Scotch or something?
0:40:59 > 0:41:03- I think it's what is termed as a claret jug.- A claret jug.
0:41:03 > 0:41:05So the actual wine could breathe.
0:41:05 > 0:41:12- Right, OK.- OK, I look at this, and I date it towards the end of the 19th, beginning of the 20th century.
0:41:12 > 0:41:17This is German. At that particular time there was a move towards nationalism,
0:41:17 > 0:41:21particularly in the arts, and they were looking back to the past.
0:41:21 > 0:41:25And this type of ware where you're looking at something quite rural
0:41:25 > 0:41:29and romantic they've adopted as a piece of furnishing on the table.
0:41:29 > 0:41:33I think it's lovely. What I like also, do you see that, Carlie?
0:41:33 > 0:41:38- Uh-huh.- What is it?- A wooden... - A wood strip.- Strip.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42So they've used something so simple as a wood strip there
0:41:42 > 0:41:46to emphasise the design point. I think it's lovely.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49Nothing expensive or blingy, just a strip of wood.
0:41:49 > 0:41:51The wood piece is what caught my eye originally.
0:41:51 > 0:41:54- That really does stand out to me. - What do you think, Carlie?
0:41:54 > 0:41:58I'm just not sure, I just think I probably wouldn't have it in my house.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00- Why not?- Take a look. - I just think...
0:42:00 > 0:42:03Let it speak to you.
0:42:05 > 0:42:09- It's not really saying much. - It's not saying much, great, great.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11How much would you pay for it though? That's the thing.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14I'm going to ask for under 100.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17I wouldn't pay more than 100, so I think maybe 80.
0:42:17 > 0:42:23- OK.- Let's see what we can get around that.- OK, best of luck. - Thank you, guys, I'm off.- Thank you.
0:42:23 > 0:42:27- Are you as bad as that when you go shopping for clothes? - Yeah, absolutely!
0:42:29 > 0:42:34Time's up. Let's remind ourselves of what the Reds bought.
0:42:34 > 0:42:38The headstrong Reds knew what they wanted,
0:42:38 > 0:42:42starting with this mesh purse for £135.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Has Michael lost his way with the Victorian compass?
0:42:45 > 0:42:48And it's not Faberge, it's not gold, it's not likely
0:42:48 > 0:42:51to make them a profit at £50. Poor old Phil.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53- Have a good time shopping? - Quality.- Yes, brilliant.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56- Quality, I love it.- Quality.
0:42:56 > 0:42:57You spent £250, which is fantastic.
0:42:57 > 0:43:04£50 of leftover lolly goes to Philip. Now I should say, Philip, there's been a bit of a struggle today.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06They've spent £250 on about 120 quid's worth of stuff,
0:43:06 > 0:43:08that was the problem.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10- Do you know what you're going to have to do with that £50?- Work miracles.
0:43:10 > 0:43:11Miracle, miracle. Off you go Phil, and good luck.
0:43:11 > 0:43:14Let's remind ourselves of what the Blues bought.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21Joe pressed all the right buttons
0:43:21 > 0:43:25when he snapped this little lot up for £65.
0:43:25 > 0:43:29Carlie's box had David eating his hat for £36.50, and finally,
0:43:29 > 0:43:33Joe uncovered this claret jug for less than a ton.
0:43:33 > 0:43:36Now Carlie and Joe, you had a great time, didn't you?
0:43:36 > 0:43:41- Fantastic time.- Did it live up to your expectations, this shopping lark?
0:43:41 > 0:43:44- Yeah, it was excellent. - Absolutely.- Really good.- Fun.
0:43:44 > 0:43:47You spent £191.50, which is a really queer number, but
0:43:47 > 0:43:53there you go, £108.50 comes across to you, David Barby.
0:43:53 > 0:43:55Right. They're quite a handful, you know, Tim.
0:43:55 > 0:44:02- Are they?- Really, yes. I've got to find something, cos they're so determined to make profit.
0:44:02 > 0:44:06Well, you usually do make a profit on your bonus buy, so you just have to relax up.
0:44:06 > 0:44:10You're the genius that goes and finds these things.
0:44:10 > 0:44:11Am I going to get out of this door?
0:44:11 > 0:44:14I don't know, is your head small enough(?)
0:44:16 > 0:44:19It's time to make our final trip to the auction.
0:44:24 > 0:44:28Well, we're in a grand county, West Sussex, Wisborough Green
0:44:28 > 0:44:31to be precise, and at Bellmans Auction House with Jonathan Prior.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34- Good morning, Jon.- Good morning, Tim. - Great to be here.- Thank you.
0:44:34 > 0:44:37Now, this hallmarked silver bag from Prudence and Michael,
0:44:37 > 0:44:40it must have been a great fashion then, cos there are quite a few
0:44:40 > 0:44:43- of these mesh bags about, aren't they?- Yeah.
0:44:43 > 0:44:46But what would somebody do with it today,
0:44:46 > 0:44:49because no girl's going to wear that out and about much, is she?
0:44:49 > 0:44:52Yeah, you're not going to head out to Horsham with that, you'll get laughed at, won't you?
0:44:52 > 0:44:56You'll get your mobile phone in there, that's it. I've priced it at £40 to £60.
0:44:56 > 0:45:00- Have you?- Yeah.- £135 paid. - That does seem optimistic to me.
0:45:00 > 0:45:04Then we've got this travelling compass in a crude mahogany box.
0:45:04 > 0:45:07Nothing wrong with it. It's from that period, early 19th century.
0:45:07 > 0:45:10- It's very simple though. Yeah, 30, £30 to £50 on that. - That's your estimate?
0:45:10 > 0:45:12That's not too bad, £65 paid.
0:45:12 > 0:45:18Now Prudence got very hot under the collar about her little vodka tumbler.
0:45:18 > 0:45:20Tell us about that.
0:45:20 > 0:45:26Well, crikey, you know the Russians have been buying big until recently.
0:45:26 > 0:45:29- Would they be going for that? - No, it's base metal and enamel. I mean, it really...- Yes.
0:45:29 > 0:45:32It's not silver gilt, which one would hope it would be at least.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35- What would be your estimate then? - I'd say between £10 and £20.
0:45:35 > 0:45:37Oh, £40 paid.
0:45:37 > 0:45:41So they're going to need their bonus buy, let's go and have a look at it.
0:45:41 > 0:45:45- Prudence and Mick, how are you both?- Good, Tim, how are you?- Good.
0:45:45 > 0:45:49Look, you told us in the shopping, that little beaker, that rusty job...
0:45:49 > 0:45:52- Yeah. - Right, that you paid £50 for that.
0:45:52 > 0:45:56- Yeah.- You didn't pay £50 for that at all, you paid £40 for it.- Did I?
0:45:56 > 0:45:58- Yeah, you paid £40. - Sorry, got it wrong!
0:45:58 > 0:46:01So, actually, overall you spent £240,
0:46:01 > 0:46:04so Philip Serrell had £60 of leftover money.
0:46:04 > 0:46:07- So what did you spend it on, Phil? - Oh, nice!
0:46:07 > 0:46:11- Do you like that?- Yeah, I definitely like it.- It's...- How much?- £45.
0:46:11 > 0:46:15It's about 1880, there or thereabouts, a little two drawer
0:46:15 > 0:46:18telescope, and I think at auction that's going to make £40 to £60.
0:46:18 > 0:46:21You're going to let Prudence handle it then, or not? Let the girl have a go!
0:46:21 > 0:46:23It's very nice. Well chosen, Phil, I think.
0:46:23 > 0:46:26Oh, gosh! That's the seal of approval, isn't it?
0:46:26 > 0:46:28So, guys, you don't decide right now.
0:46:28 > 0:46:31You decide after the sale of your first three items,
0:46:31 > 0:46:34but for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Philip's spyglass.
0:46:34 > 0:46:38Well, that seems to be quite clean and tidy.
0:46:38 > 0:46:39Yeah, it's rather neat, isn't it?
0:46:39 > 0:46:43Lacquered brass three-drawer telescope, mahogany sleeve,
0:46:43 > 0:46:45it's right for the end of the 19th century, sort of circa 1880.
0:46:45 > 0:46:51- You like it, then?- It's neat, isn't it, nice and small and dinky example, you know, £30 to £50.
0:46:51 > 0:46:55Philip Serrell paid £45, it's his bonus buy, he's hoping for the best.
0:46:55 > 0:46:57That's it for the Reds, now for the Blues.
0:46:57 > 0:47:00Their first item is the jug.
0:47:00 > 0:47:05It's quite a smart thing, nicely moulded to look like a barrel,
0:47:05 > 0:47:08probably made on the Continent, probably Austria or Germany or something like that.
0:47:08 > 0:47:12- What's the estimate, Jonathan? - I think probably we'll get between sort of £60 and £90 for that.
0:47:12 > 0:47:16Well, good, I mean you need to kick on cos £90 is paid.
0:47:16 > 0:47:22- Yeah.- But it's got a chance anyway. What about this Bavarian carved touristy novelty box?
0:47:22 > 0:47:26People do collect this sort of carved wood, and it's nice, this high relief
0:47:26 > 0:47:31floral bocage of edelweiss. £20 to £40 is the estimate for this one.
0:47:31 > 0:47:33£36.50 they paid.
0:47:33 > 0:47:37- They might just get that. - Now what about the buttons, they look flash, don't they?
0:47:37 > 0:47:41They do, aren't they smart? Sort of rococo-type scrolling to it, it's very smart, really.
0:47:41 > 0:47:44- Yes.- I think we're going to get somewhere between £50 and £70 pounds for them for sure.
0:47:44 > 0:47:48Oh, that's great, £65 paid, and who knows, you might make 80!
0:47:48 > 0:47:52Overall though, they might well need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54So you two cats, you OK?
0:47:54 > 0:47:56- We're good.- Yeah, yeah.- You're good.
0:47:56 > 0:48:01You spent £191.50, you should be good, you gave David £108.50, what did he spend all that money on?
0:48:01 > 0:48:04- Let's see. - Well, a cornucopia of riches.
0:48:04 > 0:48:07- Rather like that.- Interesting. Why did you purchase this?
0:48:07 > 0:48:11I had ten minutes.
0:48:11 > 0:48:14They told me I would have half an hour to do shopping,
0:48:14 > 0:48:17and when I got to the shops they'd all closed down except for one,
0:48:17 > 0:48:21and there was this on the shelf, I thought, "That's absolutely beautiful."
0:48:21 > 0:48:24They originally wanted £70 for it, I got it down for £40. I think it's rather nice.
0:48:24 > 0:48:27It's sort of late Regency coming into William the Fourth.
0:48:27 > 0:48:31- Well, how much profit do you think it'll make? - Somewhere between 60 and 70.
0:48:31 > 0:48:33And all you have to do is to hold that thought.
0:48:33 > 0:48:37You heard him say £60 to £70, you may or may not need to take
0:48:37 > 0:48:39this cornucopia of delights,
0:48:39 > 0:48:45but for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about it.
0:48:45 > 0:48:48So, is this a cornucopia of delights?
0:48:48 > 0:48:51A cornucopia of something.
0:48:51 > 0:48:57As a pair it would be very nice in top order, but one or two minor imperfections to the rim there...
0:48:57 > 0:49:00That's a great lump out of a scalloped edge
0:49:00 > 0:49:05So your most bullish and brave estimate on this is how much, Jonathan?
0:49:05 > 0:49:08- £40 to £60.- £40 to £60. Well, good luck.
0:49:16 > 0:49:17Last chance.
0:49:17 > 0:49:19- Now, Mike and Pru.- Yes.
0:49:19 > 0:49:21- How are you feeling?- Bit nervous.
0:49:21 > 0:49:24- A bit nervous.- What have you got to be nervous about?
0:49:24 > 0:49:25Nothing, I'm quite confident.
0:49:25 > 0:49:28- You just said you were nervous! - No, changed my mind.
0:49:28 > 0:49:31- Confidently nervous. - Positive mental attitude.
0:49:31 > 0:49:35- Is that was it is?- Yeah. - Is that your secret weapon today?
0:49:35 > 0:49:38- The silver handbag's going to make a fortune.- You reckon?
0:49:38 > 0:49:41A silver mesh purse, London, 1921 with the engraved clasp,
0:49:41 > 0:49:45To start me in at £55, £55, it's bid with me at £55,
0:49:45 > 0:49:5160, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85,
0:49:51 > 0:49:54£85, against you then at £85. Do you wish to bid £90?
0:49:54 > 0:49:58Are we all done at £85? I'll sell, last chance at 85.
0:49:58 > 0:50:00£85.
0:50:00 > 0:50:02- That's not bad.- That's 50 short.
0:50:02 > 0:50:04That's minus £50, that.
0:50:04 > 0:50:06Look out, here comes the compass.
0:50:06 > 0:50:10Now we've got 14-91A, a mahogany case pocket compass circa 1830.
0:50:10 > 0:50:13- Start me £70, straight in at £70. - I don't believe it. - £70 and I'll take five.
0:50:13 > 0:50:16Straight in, then, lots of interest, at £70 I'll sell.
0:50:16 > 0:50:19Two in the book, it's £70, you're all done.
0:50:19 > 0:50:23I don't believe it, £70, plus £5.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25Minus £45.
0:50:25 > 0:50:28All to play for.
0:50:28 > 0:50:30A Russian gilt metal and enamel spirit tumbler.
0:50:30 > 0:50:32- I have to start at £10.- £10.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34Do we have ten, £10?
0:50:34 > 0:50:4012, 15, 18, 20, 22...
0:50:40 > 0:50:4125.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44£28 anywhere else, with me at £25.
0:50:44 > 0:50:49At 25 against you then, at £25, and I'll sell at £25.
0:50:49 > 0:50:55£25, Pru, this has not gone your way today, has it? Minus £15 on that.
0:50:55 > 0:51:00So far Pru, on your choices you've lost £65. Right.
0:51:00 > 0:51:08But Mick the hero has made a £5 profit, so overall you are just minus £60. Minus £60.
0:51:08 > 0:51:11- So what about this telescope lark?- Gotta go for it. - We've got to go for it.
0:51:11 > 0:51:15We have a lacquered brass two drawer telescope
0:51:15 > 0:51:17circa 1880 with a mahogany sleeve.
0:51:17 > 0:51:25I've got to start straight in at £25 is bid. 28 and 30. 32, 35.
0:51:25 > 0:51:2638 and 40.
0:51:26 > 0:51:2942, 45, £48 courtesy commission.
0:51:29 > 0:51:33- £48, 50 anyone? - Well, two of us were all right.
0:51:33 > 0:51:39£48, and I'm selling at £48.
0:51:39 > 0:51:44£48, good man. And that is a £2 profit, no it isn't, that is a £3
0:51:44 > 0:51:47profit, which is great, so you are £57 down the drain.
0:51:47 > 0:51:53Now that could be a winning score, it's very difficult to make a profit on Bargain Hunt, we know that,
0:51:53 > 0:51:56- so don't tell the Blues a thing, all right?- OK, we won't.
0:52:00 > 0:52:03Carlie, Joe, have you been talking to the Reds? No, not at all?
0:52:03 > 0:52:06- You don't know how they got on?- No. - Good, we don't want you to.
0:52:06 > 0:52:08- Now the first item that comes up is yours, Joe.- Yes.
0:52:08 > 0:52:15A late 19th century German glass and pewter banded claret jug of coopered design.
0:52:15 > 0:52:20- Start me at £50 for this... Start me at £50... 30, then.- Oh.
0:52:20 > 0:52:24£30 waving at the back, at £30. £30, I'll take two.
0:52:24 > 0:52:3032 now, 35, 38, and 40, 45. And 50.
0:52:30 > 0:52:34- £50, gentleman by the flowers.- Oh, come on, come on.
0:52:34 > 0:52:37£50, £5 anywhere else? At £50 by the flowers, at £50.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40At £50 and I'll sell at 50, last chance, at £50, all done.
0:52:40 > 0:52:44- That is minus £40. - That's so disappointing.
0:52:44 > 0:52:46- Sorry about that, Joe. - It's all right.- Joe...- I know.
0:52:46 > 0:52:48A late 19th century Continental carved walnut box.
0:52:48 > 0:52:51- Tenner.- Oh, god. - Ten is bid, thank you, at ten, £10,
0:52:51 > 0:52:57looking for 12 now, 12 with the lady, 15 he's gone, 20, 22...
0:52:57 > 0:53:00- Come on.- Come on.- 25?
0:53:00 > 0:53:01No, he says. £22, on the left there was someone.
0:53:01 > 0:53:05£22 standing left, on the right there, 25, there we go.
0:53:05 > 0:53:08- Yes!- 28, 30. £30 to the lady.
0:53:08 > 0:53:12Do you bid at the front? Yes, he does. 32, 35, 38...
0:53:12 > 0:53:14Yes!
0:53:14 > 0:53:16£38 the gentleman now, at £38.
0:53:16 > 0:53:19- Go on! Go on, go on. - Any further interest at £38?
0:53:19 > 0:53:21It's gone to 40.
0:53:21 > 0:53:24- Yes!- No, he's shaking his head now. With the lady at £40.
0:53:24 > 0:53:29£40 it is then and selling, last chance. £40...
0:53:29 > 0:53:33- Yes. £40, thank goodness. - I did dislike that one!
0:53:33 > 0:53:34That's £3.50.
0:53:34 > 0:53:38- £3.50 is a heck of a profit. - It's good though, it's good.
0:53:38 > 0:53:41Lot 15-12 A, a set of boxed silver buttons
0:53:41 > 0:53:44of scroll form.
0:53:44 > 0:53:47Start me straight in at £100.
0:53:47 > 0:53:51£100 is bid. Do I see ten, £100, with me at £100.
0:53:51 > 0:53:53- 110, 120. Do you want 130?- Yes, keep going.
0:53:53 > 0:53:55Something's happening.
0:53:55 > 0:53:57Are you sure? £120 then, 120.
0:53:57 > 0:53:59- Keep going, keep going. - 30 anywhere else?
0:53:59 > 0:54:04All done, £120, last chance, 120.
0:54:04 > 0:54:05Yes!
0:54:05 > 0:54:08£120 pounds, I don't believe that, look.
0:54:08 > 0:54:12You are £18.50 up, how good is that?
0:54:12 > 0:54:16- Not bad.- Yes.- It's not bad. - £18.50. Perfect. Now what are you going to do about the bonus buy?
0:54:16 > 0:54:19This is so difficult, because frankly you were...
0:54:19 > 0:54:21When you're up...
0:54:21 > 0:54:23You're up £18.50, yes?
0:54:23 > 0:54:25- Shall we go for it? - I hate it, but...
0:54:25 > 0:54:27- You hate it?- Yeah. - You really do hate it?
0:54:27 > 0:54:29- What's to lose, right? - £40 to lose actually.
0:54:29 > 0:54:31And it could be a winning score, this £18.50.
0:54:31 > 0:54:34- We're only doing this once. - I don't think so.
0:54:34 > 0:54:35You don't think we should do it?
0:54:35 > 0:54:37- You're not going to go for it? - No.- Definitely?- Definitely.
0:54:37 > 0:54:43- Right. No for the bonus buy, - Early Victorian glass cornucopia spill vase.
0:54:43 > 0:54:46Who'll start me at 40 for this? Start me at £20 then...
0:54:46 > 0:54:48£20, he's bid on the left at £20, do I see two?
0:54:48 > 0:54:50Maiden bid of £20, two anywhere else?
0:54:50 > 0:54:54At £20, at £20, this is it at 20.
0:54:54 > 0:54:5622 now with the lady, 25, 28, 30...
0:54:56 > 0:54:59- No, no, no, no, no. - £30 still with the gentleman.
0:54:59 > 0:55:01- Standing still at £30. Two anywhere else?- No.
0:55:01 > 0:55:06- £30 with the gentleman then, selling at 30, last chance at £30.- Yes.
0:55:06 > 0:55:08- Yes.- You were right!
0:55:08 > 0:55:13- Good call.- £30. Now that was not an easy shout for you, was it?
0:55:13 > 0:55:15- No, it wasn't.- It wasn't. - You really didn't like it.
0:55:15 > 0:55:17- No, I didn't.- And you wanted it.
0:55:17 > 0:55:19- Absolutely. - You would have persuaded her.
0:55:19 > 0:55:23That's true, but I went with her, and I trusted her, and it won. It did well.
0:55:23 > 0:55:26So minus £10, but you did very well not to go with that.
0:55:26 > 0:55:29- Excellent. - So, minus £10, but it doesn't count.
0:55:29 > 0:55:35Overall, then, you are £18.50 up, you conserved your profits and
0:55:35 > 0:55:37it's been a very good game.
0:55:37 > 0:55:39Now don't tell the Reds a thing, right?
0:55:39 > 0:55:42- OK.- Cos £18.50 could be a winning score.
0:55:47 > 0:55:51This is the moment to reveal the winner and the runner up.
0:55:51 > 0:55:55And the runner up today are the Reds.
0:55:55 > 0:55:59- Ooh!- Minus £57 is not a great score, is it?
0:55:59 > 0:56:01It's not bad, I've heard worse.
0:56:01 > 0:56:03You've heard worse. But not good enough, I'm afraid.
0:56:03 > 0:56:07- Apparently not. - So bad luck on that, all right.
0:56:07 > 0:56:12They're obviously having hysterics in the background here,
0:56:12 > 0:56:15cos they just can't contain themselves with the joy of it all.
0:56:15 > 0:56:19£55 profit on those buttons, Joe, that is a stonker, isn't it?
0:56:19 > 0:56:21- That's right, absolutely. - And not bad Carlie, £3.50,
0:56:21 > 0:56:24- darling, on the little box. - Indeed, it's all right.
0:56:24 > 0:56:28Which was loathed at various times, so congratulations on that.
0:56:28 > 0:56:32Overall then, it finished up at £18.50.
