0:00:03 > 0:00:05We're at a fair.
0:00:05 > 0:00:09And it's the appointed time again, so hang on tight,
0:00:09 > 0:00:14look sharp and let's go bargain hunting! Whoo!
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Hello and welcome to Norfolk.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45I'm at the Norwich
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Royal Antiques and Collectors' Fair.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Norfolk, a splendid county,
0:00:52 > 0:00:54well known for...
0:00:54 > 0:00:57turkeys, amongst other things, but don't let that put you off.
0:00:57 > 0:01:03Oh, no, there's plenty here to feather our nests with, if only you know where to look.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Gobble, gobble.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11Hungry for success today, we've got as grand total of four teams
0:01:11 > 0:01:15hoping to find quality antiques at knock-down prices.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17We'll bring the bits to you now!
0:01:17 > 0:01:22So there's double the number of deals to enjoy. Let's meet the first lot of Blues and Reds.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24Who have we got with us today?
0:01:24 > 0:01:27For the Red team, we've got friends, Kay and Margaret.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31And for the Blues, we've got friends, John and John.
0:01:31 > 0:01:37- Hi, teams.- Hello.- Now, you girls, how did you first get to meet?
0:01:37 > 0:01:40- We met in the pub. - You're fond of a drop, are you?
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Well, yes!- Now, what other hobbies have you got, Kay?
0:01:42 > 0:01:45I line dance, swimming and play bingo.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46You really are a busy girl.
0:01:46 > 0:01:50And have you got any hobbies that relate to Bargain Hunt, at all?
0:01:50 > 0:01:57- Yes. I collect little men and plates. - Little men.- Little men, yes.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- We're talking about models here, are we?- Yes.- Yes.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Now, Margaret, have you got any buying and selling experience?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05I've sold stuff and I've bought stuff.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- You're experienced, then? - Well, I wouldn't say that,
0:02:08 > 0:02:12but usually a bit of tat here and a bit of tat there.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14You'll fit in nicely with this programme!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17I think you're going to do very well today, you two.
0:02:17 > 0:02:22You're just cheeky enough, I'd say. Now for John and John. Have you two known each other a long time?
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- We have. Yes. 30 odd years? - Yeah, it must be.
0:02:26 > 0:02:27Technical college, we met.
0:02:27 > 0:02:32- And what were you doing at the tech? Something technical? - Radio and TV servicing,
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- to start with, yeah.- Was it?
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- And you've remained friends ever since?- Unfortunately!
0:02:38 > 0:02:43- So which of you Johns is the bee man?- I'm the bee man. - Oh, you're the bee man.- Yes.
0:02:43 > 0:02:48- So you keep them, do you? - I have one hive, at the moment, yes, which survived the winter.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51John, which hobby takes up most of your time?
0:02:51 > 0:02:56The classic cars, I suppose, yes. Sort of building and restoring.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59- What have you got? - I've got a Triumph TR250.
0:02:59 > 0:03:05A lot of talent on today's programme. Now, the money moment. £300 apiece. Here's your £300.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10£300, look. Your experts await. You know the rules and off you go and very, very, very good luck.
0:03:12 > 0:03:19We've sent our teams off and they're eager to find three sensational money-making items, but first,
0:03:19 > 0:03:23but first, let's meet the individuals in the know. It's our Bargain Hunt experts.
0:03:23 > 0:03:27MUSIC: "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Looks like they're in fighting form.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36Our young buck for the Reds...
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Fisticuffs a-ready,
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Charles Hansen bats for the blues.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Don't get carried away, now.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50Steady there, boys.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59I'm by no means a bureaucrat.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01In fact, I don't subscribe to very many rules,
0:04:01 > 0:04:08but there are some boundaries that we have to put on our game of frolicking good fun, today.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16(Good Lord!) And the rules are, each of the teams get £300 and an hour to shop,
0:04:16 > 0:04:22for three items and the team that makes the most profit at auction wins.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23Dazzling.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Cheer up, chaps.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35OK, it's time to get going. The teams have had their pep talk.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Let's see if they've got what it takes out in the field.
0:04:38 > 0:04:39OK, John, John, ready to go?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- Yes.- We've got the hour, that's it.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Let's hit the road, then.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55- What have you seen?- Vesta case.- OK.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Silver. It's got a golfer on it.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01- Right.- It's quite heavy. - Can I have a quick look at it?
0:05:01 > 0:05:02It's not a lot of money, to be honest.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04£22 is the price on it.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- Can I come back to it if I can't find anything else?- Course you can.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11I think, John, really, we should go for something plain and simple.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13- That's too plain.- Far too simple.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16It is. It's a cheap one.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18- Yeah, I'm so pleased! - OK, plain and simple.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Ah, I must tell you about the bonus buy.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Yes, there is a bonus buy.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31Tempting as it may be, the teams can't spend all the money.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38They'll give the leftover money to their expert, who'll trot off and find something which,
0:05:38 > 0:05:43hopefully, will boost the team's profits later at auction.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47Course it would help if the teams got on and actually bought something!
0:05:47 > 0:05:49OK. And why did you pick that up?
0:05:49 > 0:05:53- Because I like cats.- And it's the Red Team?- Yes.- You like cats.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56This is Royal Doulton flambe.
0:05:56 > 0:06:01They didn't make that many. They are quite collectable, but it's a market that goes...
0:06:01 > 0:06:05up and down. When the market's strong, obviously, the prices are better.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07So what would that make?
0:06:07 > 0:06:12- I think you'd probably be getting about...£60 at auction for it. - Got to get it for 50 or less.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14£75 is the price on the bottom.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16See what you can do.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18I think...I think it's a deal.
0:06:18 > 0:06:23- So...pleased?- Yeah. Very pleased. - Good. Excellent.- Yeah.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Well done, ladies. The first one in the bag, for £55.
0:06:32 > 0:06:37I might just pop along and remind the Reds that they're up against the clock.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39OK, team, progress report.
0:06:39 > 0:06:4127 minutes have gone by.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- Has it really?- 27 minutes. - Time flies.- You've bought one item?
0:06:45 > 0:06:46- Are you happy with that?- Yes.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- Very happy.- Got any plans?
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Well, we've only actually made it down one row, so far.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- We're dragging our heels a bit. - Is there a lot of chatting going on?
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- There's a lot to see.- There is.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02Well, they seem very relaxed. I'd say it was time to change up a gear.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Look, look. 30 minutes to go.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07John, 30 minutes.
0:07:07 > 0:07:1030 minutes? Half an hour gone?
0:07:14 > 0:07:20OK. We have here a cast iron vesta case, modelled as Mr Punch.
0:07:20 > 0:07:26Late 19th century, with a factory, or foundry, mark, for a family called Zimmerman.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Sadly, lacking the top of his...
0:07:29 > 0:07:33- I like him. He's a good gentleman's desk sort of thing. - He's got a happy face.
0:07:33 > 0:07:34Let's strike a deal.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38So, he's asking £80, but the man is saying we can have it...
0:07:38 > 0:07:40I'll let you have it for £50.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43- Thank you.- That's a good deal. - Yes.- We'll go for that.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47The ladies are steaming ahead.
0:07:47 > 0:07:55Two items under their belt, £195 left in the bank and the Blues haven't even started yet.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57What about these?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Little knife, I saw. Yes. They're nice.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01- How much are they?- Ooh, 125.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- They're not reproductions?- No.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Are they marked, sir? - Across the tops, there.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Each's got its own marks.
0:08:09 > 0:08:14They're quality. They're very much what we call a Louis Cannes style, of course.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Shell casting.
0:08:16 > 0:08:20Scroll supports. Louis XV, in that revive Rococo of the period.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Gentleman said he'd take 80, which is quite a good reduction.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Absolute death on that. - Absolute death.
0:08:26 > 0:08:31I think, guys, £80, it's a good buy. I've said between 70 and 100.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- John, we're in it for the... financial returns.- Yeah.
0:08:33 > 0:08:38You like it. John, it's a money-orientated business.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41It's profit-making and I think if you're game, let's do it.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44- Right.- Right. There's the money. There you are.- OK.- £80.
0:08:44 > 0:08:51- Eh, £60 you said, didn't you?- 80! - I'm a trier.- That you are, John.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54£80 for the knives and, at last, a purchase!
0:08:54 > 0:08:58- Are you pleased with them?- Yeah.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04- Come on. Time to really step up the tempo.- Let's go round here.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- Beautiful glass. Beautiful. - That is very pretty, isn't it?
0:09:07 > 0:09:10OK, ladies, keep walking. Keep walking. Keep walking.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Look at this, here. Here we've got... Isn't that lovely?
0:09:14 > 0:09:19A really nice silver, Chamblevie, pink enamel, oval buckle.
0:09:19 > 0:09:26It's hallmarked, as well, for London and that date letter P would mean it's George V.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30So it's, you know, early, first quarter of the 20th century.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33And I wonder how much it is. Sir, how much, please?
0:09:33 > 0:09:38- I've got 55 on it. - You sound definite about that. - Yeah. I am, absolutely.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Don't want to talk you into anything, John. What do you think?
0:09:43 > 0:09:44Come back?
0:09:46 > 0:09:50You've only got one item, gents. Less browsing, more buying.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52The ladies have got the right idea.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57I wanted to see this chap here, actually, because, christening cup,
0:09:57 > 0:09:59just spotted it, while we were looking at this.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02This is a Charles christening cup. It's not inscribed with a name.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04I think he is Sylvester.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08Is he the one that says, "Sufferin' succotash."?! Yes! He's that one!
0:10:08 > 0:10:13There's some marks on the bottom, which you say are Continental.
0:10:13 > 0:10:18And it's 925. Got an import mark there, but we've got nothing...
0:10:18 > 0:10:22Love it to have been an import mark, but it is completely Continental.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Silver-wise, you're looking at a few grams. It's not a heavy thing.
0:10:25 > 0:10:29The price we've got on there is £95.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31- You could have it for 60.- OK.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33OK, say £55?
0:10:33 > 0:10:39- All right, then. - Yes. Yes.- £55.- £55.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42£55 is not excessive, I don't think.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44We got there. We'll shake hands. Brilliant. OK.
0:10:44 > 0:10:49Hoo-hoo! That's everything for the Reds and one happy stall owner.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53But are those Blues about to go to the auction with just one piece?
0:10:53 > 0:10:57- It's actually a nice hatbox, John, isn't it?- Let's have a look.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59It's obviously RN, Royal Navy.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01It must be 19th century.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Yeah. Could be kept in his name, possibly.- Quite right.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08It's in nice condition. Obviously, the patternation has survived.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11There we go. If you open it up...like this.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- It's clean, isn't it? - Yeah. What is it made out of?
0:11:14 > 0:11:16- It's tin, basically.- Tin.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18- With a lacquer.- Yeah, lacquered tin.
0:11:18 > 0:11:24If it went into an auction today, my sort of auction guide price would be 30 to 50, 40 to 50.
0:11:24 > 0:11:31On a good day, you know, with two vibrant ladies wanting a nice hatbox, it could do quite well.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34It's got a nice interior to it, as well, so it's quite unusual.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36- Could be usable.- Yeah, it could be.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- I would look towards that sort of lower estimate, if you can get it and we'll see what we can do.- OK.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45Good work, boys. Two down, one to go.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49- Gents, we've got two and a half minutes left, OK?- Oh, my goodness.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53- Two and a half minutes is all we've got left. Hold that for me. - Yeah.- There's 20.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57There's 20. What we need to do is go and buy that buckle.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01If you can offer £40 for it, that completes our purchases.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Now, I am not a hard man, as you know, Bargain Hunters,
0:12:04 > 0:12:09but when it comes to the game, I will not bend the rules.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11The hour is up.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14The shopping has to stop. Sort them out, boys, eh?
0:12:18 > 0:12:21OK. Let's shake on that.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25That was close, gents. Let's just recap on what the Reds bought.
0:12:26 > 0:12:31The little red Doulton cat was acquired for £55.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33That's the way to do it.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35£50 for Mr Punch.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39And for £55 - suffering succotash - Sylvester the cat.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Not cat-astrophic at all, eh?
0:12:41 > 0:12:42Get it? Miaow.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46You spent £160, which is not too bad.
0:12:46 > 0:12:51- I'd like £140 of leftover lolly. - There you go.- Thank you very much.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53- This goes to Jonathan. - Thank you very much.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Good luck. Let's remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58The Blues kicked off
0:12:58 > 0:13:04with a set of ten Christof plated knife rests, for £80.
0:13:04 > 0:13:09Next, they purchased the lacquered hat case, hinged and inscribed.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12And for an aching £45, who can blame them?
0:13:12 > 0:13:17And finally, although they almost ran out of time, the George V
0:13:17 > 0:13:20pink and enamel silver buckle - a bargain at £40.
0:13:22 > 0:13:28Now, you spent £165, which is not bad. £135 of leftover lolly, please.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32- See what the mechanic can do with that.- The mechanic? Is that what you call Charles?
0:13:32 > 0:13:39Yes. Charles Hansen, Charles Bronson. And the best film he ever made was in 1972 called The Mechanic.
0:13:39 > 0:13:44And I have to say, he does look quite like Charles Bronson, doesn't he(?) Yeah.
0:13:44 > 0:13:49- Ha! Ripple of applause. Good. - Well, I shall rev the engine.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Yes. He's just stopped blushing.
0:13:52 > 0:13:57- You have got £135 there and a job to do, Charles Bronson. - I have. A very important job.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59They've been a great pair of Johns.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02So, in that regard, we need something
0:14:02 > 0:14:08- which I think will reflect their paying and I've got a few thoughts in mind.- Oh, have you? Good.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Off you go and very good luck.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17The question is, how will our teams do today at the auction?
0:14:26 > 0:14:30'We're off to T W Gaze Auctioneers, where Elizabeth Talbot
0:14:30 > 0:14:34will cast a critical eye over our purchases.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36- It's a treat to be here. - Good, good.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40Now the Reds, their first item, not surprisingly, is red.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42The little Doulton cat.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45The early 20th-Century flambe that Doulton were very famous for producing
0:14:45 > 0:14:48is what everybody starts to drool over.
0:14:48 > 0:14:54The later 20th-Century examples become rather lifeless and, in my opinion, not all that exciting.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Not much more to say, really. £60-80 is our estimate.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59- Fine. £55 they paid.- Fine.
0:14:59 > 0:15:05- Now, the cast iron vesta case. Mr Punch. So sweet.- Yes.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07A sweet little piece, this.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10I like both Mr Punch, he's always very commercial,
0:15:10 > 0:15:16- and the fact the little vesta case with a striker at his feet makes a nice take on a match striker.- Yes.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20- 40 to 60 is our estimate, Tim.- Is it? Yes. Well, they paid £50.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Right. Now, the little christening cup,
0:15:23 > 0:15:27which I think is absolutely charming, I have to say.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30I think it's a sweet 20th century take on a traditional gift
0:15:30 > 0:15:34for a child or person who's being christened.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36Hopefully, they'll pay £40-60 for it.
0:15:36 > 0:15:41£55 the team paid, so that's pretty well on the button, too.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43I don't think we're predicting much in the way of losses,
0:15:43 > 0:15:45but not predicting much in the way of profit,
0:15:45 > 0:15:48so we'd better have a look at their bonus buy.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Now, girls, you spent 160. Jonathan has 140.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55What did he spend the money on in the way of a bonus buy?
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- There we go.- Oh!- Oh!
0:15:59 > 0:16:03What I've got here are four albums of postcards.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07Take one each and let's have a quick look at them. There we go.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11- Going back to what date?- It's a real mixture. Mostly 20th century.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15I paid, for the four of them, £60.
0:16:15 > 0:16:20- £60.- "How much?!"- £60. - For four of these?
0:16:20 > 0:16:24But what you have to think about is I've got close to 400 cards here
0:16:24 > 0:16:31and in that respect, if you were to look at some of them being 10p, some of them being 20p,
0:16:31 > 0:16:35some of them being 30- 40p, then, collectively, you're getting up to 60 very quickly.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Anyway, for the benefit of the viewers at home, let's find out
0:16:39 > 0:16:42what the auctioneer thinks about the collection of postcards.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43So, here we go, Elizabeth.
0:16:43 > 0:16:48It's the auctioneer's favourite really, cataloguing three or four albums of postcards(!)
0:16:48 > 0:16:53They're mainly, unfortunately, fairly plain and simple holiday resort-type cards.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55- Seaside views.- Yeah. Absolutely.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59What would you roll the whole lot up at, in terms of an estimate?
0:16:59 > 0:17:03Well, we've put £80-120 on, which may be a little bit optimistic.
0:17:03 > 0:17:08- We're being positive about the whole thing.- Good. Well, Jonathan paid £60.
0:17:08 > 0:17:13- Right.- He's got his head screwed on. - Yes.- He's pretty certain to make a profit, I guess.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16- Well, if we go according to plan. - If all goes according to plan.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20Now, for the blues. Their first item is the set
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- of ten knife rests.- We do see quite a little bit of Christof,
0:17:24 > 0:17:29actually, in terms of tableware and flatware. We're not strangers to it.
0:17:29 > 0:17:30What is your estimate?
0:17:30 > 0:17:36I think realistically, £60-80 they'll sell at and I'd hope for a little bit more on the day.
0:17:36 > 0:17:42- Yeah. Well, they paid 80, you see. - Right.- So they need you to feel that you'll get a bit more on the day.
0:17:42 > 0:17:48Now, what about this Japanned naval officer's cocaide hatbox?
0:17:48 > 0:17:49- I like this.- You do?- I do.
0:17:49 > 0:17:54- I think it's a bit of social and military history rolled into one. - What do you think it's worth?
0:17:54 > 0:17:59- We hope to make somewhere between £40-60 for that.- £45 they paid.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Good chance of profit, which is brilliant.
0:18:01 > 0:18:08And their third item is this extremely nice, pink, enamelled buckle broach.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10- I like this.- Thought you would.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14It's hallmarked silver, dated London 1910, so a lovely period.
0:18:14 > 0:18:20Guilloche enamel - the silver tooled underneath and enamelled over the top with this wonderful pastel.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22A very unusual mauve-lilac-y colour.
0:18:22 > 0:18:23What's your estimate?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Well, we hope to sell it for somewhere between £60-80.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Oh, that would be wonderful. They paid £40.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33Anyway, whether it does well or not, they may be delighted to have a go
0:18:33 > 0:18:35at the bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38- Now, John, John.- Yes.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43You spent £165. You gave Charles £135 for the bonus buy.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46What did he spend it on?
0:18:46 > 0:18:49I always think pairs are better than one.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52We're a good team. We've come a long way together. Are you ready?
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Pull the cloth for me.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Very carefully. There's one for you, John.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- You're a bit quiet.- Yeah.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- Is that Paringware? - Yes, you're quite right.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Paringware or bisque un-glazed porcelain. Royal Worcester,
0:19:07 > 0:19:121950s and, importantly, John, in very good condition, as well.
0:19:12 > 0:19:17- What sort of price did you pay? - I spent £110 on them,
0:19:17 > 0:19:19which, OK, you know, is £55 each.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24I would still see them in a saleroom, individually, making 60 or 80,
0:19:24 > 0:19:30so my guide price for the pair is 100-150. That's a base level,
0:19:30 > 0:19:32so I would hope they'll make top estimate.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34- They will go in as a pair? - As a pair, quite right.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36That's the business end done.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40For the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the Worcester figures.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44There's one thing you can say - they're extremely white.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48They are extremely white, and I would say that's actually to their disadvantage.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50You'd expect to see these figures,
0:19:50 > 0:19:54- particularly late ones like this, brightly coloured?- You would.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58Generally, commercially, white items remain difficult to sell.
0:19:58 > 0:20:03Unlike some of our estimates, which are quite tight, this one is quite wide - between £100-200.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08- Charles Hansen won't be disappointed by that. He paid £110.- Right.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- Anyway, I wish you bon chance. - Merci beaucoup.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20- Kay and Mags, how are you feeling? - Confident.- Are you?- Excited. - That's what we love.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24First up, Kay, is your flambe cat. Here it comes.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29The seated cat. Lot 170. Here I start at £32.
0:20:29 > 0:20:35- £32. Bid at 32. 35. 38. 42. 45. 48. - Bit more.- 50. Five. 60.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Five. 70. Five. 80 - and I'm out.
0:20:38 > 0:20:44- 80.- 80. I'll take five. It's a gentleman's bid at 80 and selling.
0:20:44 > 0:20:49- 80. Very well done. Plus £25. You've made £25 profit.- Thank you.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52- Isn't that brilliant? - For a cat lover.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55We have the cast metal figure, Mr Punch.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00- I say £30. 20 I'll take. - Come on, come on.- Where are you?
0:21:00 > 0:21:02At £20 for Mr Punch.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Somebody, please.- Ten bid.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08Ten I have. Low start at ten. I'll take 12. At ten.
0:21:08 > 0:21:1212. 15. 18. 20. Two.
0:21:12 > 0:21:1425. 25 is the gentleman.
0:21:14 > 0:21:1625, the back wall. At 25.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Are you all above at 25 now? Where's eight?
0:21:19 > 0:21:23Gentleman, at 25...
0:21:23 > 0:21:26£25. That's a loss of £25. That means your profit of £25
0:21:26 > 0:21:28is wiped out and it means
0:21:28 > 0:21:30you're absolutely nowhere, so far.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Down to your Sylvester christening cup.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Lot 172,
0:21:34 > 0:21:35the christening mug.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39This is fun with the figure a cartoon cat, Sylvester, there.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42Stamped 925, where may I say? Start me at 50.
0:21:43 > 0:21:4630 I'll take. Come on.
0:21:46 > 0:21:5030 bid. 30, I have. 32. 35. 38. And 40.
0:21:50 > 0:21:5240, the gallery. At 40 now. I'll take two.
0:21:52 > 0:21:5442, new bidder.
0:21:54 > 0:21:5745. 48. And 50.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01- Yes!- Five.- Yes! - 55. 55 now. Where's 60?
0:22:01 > 0:22:05At 55. Am I missing anybody? At £55...
0:22:05 > 0:22:08I don't believe it. Wiped its face.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11£55. No profit, no loss, on that.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15You have no profit, no loss, from the sale of the first two items,
0:22:15 > 0:22:17which means you have no profit and no loss!
0:22:17 > 0:22:21- What are you going to do about the postcards?- It doesn't matter.- Yes.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Yes, we've got to. - I don't blame you.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26You're going with the postcards. Here they come.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Lot 176, we have four various
0:22:29 > 0:22:31postcard albums, mostly of tourist views.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34May I say, £50 for all of these?
0:22:34 > 0:22:3830 I'll take, to start. Surely, come on.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42£30 bid. 30 I have. I'll take two. At £30 only. Where's the two?
0:22:42 > 0:22:46At £30 only. Are you all done at 30? Surely worth more.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50I'm disappointed with this at £30. Are you all done?
0:22:51 > 0:22:53- £30.- There you go, I'm sorry.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Apparently, they're not worth 10p each!
0:22:57 > 0:23:00- Quite.- Anyway, so that is minus £30.
0:23:00 > 0:23:06You were doing so beautifully, but the overall score now, girls, I'm afraid, is minus £30.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09It could have been worse. Could have been a lot worse.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12But it's not curtains. That could be a winning score.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15The big thing is, don't talk to the Blues about it, all right?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Now, have you been talking to the Reds, at all?
0:23:23 > 0:23:28- We haven't discussed the lots. - They wouldn't tell us anything. - They wouldn't?- Not a word.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31They're very, very coy, that's the thing.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Well, first up are your knife rests, John, and here they come.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37Ten early 20th century Christofle knife rests.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Lovely to have ten of them.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Where may I say? Start me at 50.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- Let's move.- 30 I'll take.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48All quiet on the Western Front, here. At £30, surely? Come on. 20 bid.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52Low start at 20. I'll take two. 22. 25.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56- 28. And 30. - Oh, dear.- Struggling.- 32.
0:23:56 > 0:23:5932 is a front bid. 35, new bidder.
0:23:59 > 0:24:0435 is by the door. At 35, not dear. At 35, not much each. At £35 only.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08- At 35, are you all done? - A good buy for someone.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Minus £45, lads. Not good, that.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14- Sorry.- Oh, no!
0:24:14 > 0:24:16So, the tin box.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18The late Victorian tin. It's the muffled effect.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21As you see it there, with padlock and key.
0:24:21 > 0:24:22Start me at 30.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26A good piece here, at £30. 20 I'll take.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28- Come on! - What's the matter with these people?
0:24:28 > 0:24:33Five. 28. 30. 30's the front bid. At 30. Thought it would make more.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36- At £30 only, I'll take two. - One more, surely.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40£30 at the front and selling. At 30, all done?
0:24:40 > 0:24:45Dear, oh, dear. £30 is minus £15. That's not so good. The buckle.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47Lot 197. We have
0:24:47 > 0:24:49the silver and pink Guilloche enamel buckle.
0:24:49 > 0:24:55London 1910. Where am I saying for this one? Start me at 40.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59It's a lovely item. Unusual colour. Come on, you're all quiet.
0:24:59 > 0:25:0320 bid. 20 I have. I'll take two. 22. 25. 28.
0:25:03 > 0:25:0930. Two. 35. 38. 40. Two. 45.
0:25:09 > 0:25:1448. 50. Five. 60. Five. 70. Five.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18- 80?- That's OK. - 75 now. 80 may I say?
0:25:18 > 0:25:22At £75, a lovely item. At £75...
0:25:22 > 0:25:28£75. You are plus £35 on that. Well done. Good, Charles.
0:25:28 > 0:25:3235. That means you're minus £25. You are minus £25.
0:25:32 > 0:25:37- So are you going with the bonus buy? - No.- You're not?- Yes, yes, let's go!
0:25:37 > 0:25:41- You are going to go with it? - They're a good pair.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44We have the mid-20th century Royal Worcester Paringware figurines.
0:25:44 > 0:25:4550 to start.
0:25:46 > 0:25:51Oh, I don't believe this. Oh, my goodness.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55- Oh, my goodness me.- 50 bid. 50's crept up at my side. At £50.
0:25:55 > 0:26:01- I'll take five. At £50 only. Five. - 60. One more.- 55. 55.
0:26:01 > 0:26:0660, new bidder. 65. 70. 70 now, with the lady. At 70.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- Both gentlemen out. At £70. The lady's bid at 70.- One more.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14Any advance on £70? 75. 75 is the gentleman's bid. At 75.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Where's 80? For the pair of them, remember. 80's bid. 85.
0:26:17 > 0:26:22- One more.- 90.- Go on. - 90's now seated. Nearer to me, at 90.
0:26:22 > 0:26:23- Take five.- One more, sir.
0:26:23 > 0:26:30At £90. Don't feel the pressure! £90. Any advance? £90.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32It is minus £45.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34That could still be a winning score.
0:26:34 > 0:26:35Do not despair.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37All will be revealed in a moment.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47Neither the Reds nor the Blues managed to balance the books.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51But I suppose you could say that the Reds lost least,
0:26:51 > 0:26:55making theirs the winning score. Hurrah!
0:26:55 > 0:26:58Coming up, we have some more bargain hunters,
0:26:58 > 0:27:01poised to wow you with their purchasing prowess,
0:27:01 > 0:27:04but before that, I fancy a spin.
0:27:06 > 0:27:07TIM WHISTLES
0:27:07 > 0:27:11'Three miles shy of the North Norfolk coastline,
0:27:11 > 0:27:15'sits Felbrigg Hall, where I have been granted
0:27:15 > 0:27:18'a day's pass to have a little look around.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20'Felbrigg is a bit of a rich mix.
0:27:20 > 0:27:24'Initially a 15th-Century Tudor construction,'
0:27:24 > 0:27:29work started in 1620 to reconstruct it in the Jacobean style.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Take a second look and you'll see that, when it comes to refurbishing the country pad,
0:27:32 > 0:27:39a mere 50 years after completion, the Windham family ditched the old romantic west wing,
0:27:39 > 0:27:44opting instead for the look of the time and a brand-new extension.
0:27:47 > 0:27:54Scroll forward to the early 18th century and you find the estate here at Felbrigg is not
0:27:54 > 0:28:00flagging behind fashion, because they built for themselves an orangery - at the time,
0:28:00 > 0:28:07the most fashionable thing you possibly could have done and it's no mistake that this
0:28:07 > 0:28:14brick-built orangery sits so happily as a bedfellow to the main house.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Oh! Ha-ha!
0:28:16 > 0:28:20It's hard to imagine now, but oranges, at that period,
0:28:20 > 0:28:25were the choice fruit for the wealthy and noble. Mmm.
0:28:29 > 0:28:35Here we are in the kitchen at Felbrigg and in here, either the servants or the mistress
0:28:35 > 0:28:42of the house would make quite sure that no vital part of this precious fruit would ever be wasted.
0:28:42 > 0:28:46A very good use, of course, for oranges, of the Seville variety
0:28:46 > 0:28:49rather than these, was to make marmalade.
0:28:49 > 0:28:54And you would typically have boiled your Seville oranges in sugar
0:28:54 > 0:28:58and you'd insert them, when cooked, into this gadget.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01Ram the Seville orange up the bottom end, here,
0:29:01 > 0:29:03forcing it in with
0:29:03 > 0:29:06a wooden plug and, at the same time,
0:29:06 > 0:29:11agitating this handle so that the skin of the orange, the unique part
0:29:11 > 0:29:19that does away with having to have pectin to make the orange marmalade set, would be chopped
0:29:19 > 0:29:25into uniform pieces and produce the delicious orange marmalade
0:29:25 > 0:29:28for which Great Britain is renowned.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34Our next two teams are ready for a taste of the antiques trade.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37Will their experience be bitter sweet? Let's meet them.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39So, who have we got today?
0:29:39 > 0:29:42We've got Sadie and Richard, who are friends, for the Reds.
0:29:42 > 0:29:49And we've got father and daughter, Natasha and Gary, for the Blues. Welcome to Bargain Hunt. Brilliant.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Sadie, how do you know each other?
0:29:51 > 0:29:57I've always known Richard. His parents owned the local post office when I was a child.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00He would serve behind the counter. Everybody just knew Richard.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02And you're about to have a baby.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03- I am indeed, yes.- Brilliant.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Congratulations on that. When's your baby due?
0:30:06 > 0:30:08About six weeks.
0:30:08 > 0:30:12Now, Richard, or should I say Richard Bailey MBE?
0:30:12 > 0:30:15- Tell us about that experience. - Well, that was fantastic.
0:30:15 > 0:30:16It was a shock.
0:30:16 > 0:30:21When the letter came from the Prime Minister,
0:30:21 > 0:30:26I was emptying the mailbox and I straightaway opened it, read this letter, just couldn't believe it.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28- I actually read it four times.- Yes.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31And you got your MBE for what?
0:30:31 > 0:30:33Well, mainly for the youth work that I do in the area
0:30:33 > 0:30:36and also the community work that I've done over many years.
0:30:36 > 0:30:37Well, good for you.
0:30:37 > 0:30:42- And congratulations on getting your award. - Thank you very much.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44- Very good luck to both of you. - Thank you.
0:30:44 > 0:30:46Now for the father and daughter combo.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Natasha, you're a bit of a thrill-seeker, aren't you?
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Yeah. Last year I got into wakeboarding, which is basically
0:30:52 > 0:30:56being pulled along on a board behind a boat or behind a cable.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00- Really.- Yeah. Myself and my partner sort of started that last year.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03- This year I'm not going to be able to, because of having a baby.- You too?
0:31:03 > 0:31:04This is lovely.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07We've got the Bargain Hunt creche going on.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11You're a stallholder yourself, experienced in buying and selling?
0:31:11 > 0:31:16Yeah. I regularly have a car-boot sale at our local car-boot area.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19But it's not selling collectables or anything.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21It's basically things that I no longer want or need.
0:31:21 > 0:31:25- And it's the ultimate recycling, which is good.- Yes.- Very green.
0:31:25 > 0:31:29- Exactly.- Now, talking about green, Gary, you're keen on your tortoises.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33- Yeah. Very keen. Yes. We have ten giant tortoises.- Ten giants?
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Yeah. From all over the world.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38Different species. Our main ones are Aldabran tortoises.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40- Who?- Aldabran tortoises.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42- Oh, yeah.- Which can grow up to about half a ton in weight.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46But tortoises aren't the only thing that you collect, are they, Gary?
0:31:46 > 0:31:48No. I collect Swarovski crystal.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Been collecting that for about nine years now.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53Have about 150 pieces.
0:31:53 > 0:31:54You two enjoy a few unusual sports.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57We've heard about that. Which is your favourite?
0:31:57 > 0:31:59Jet skiing's very enjoyable.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03There are a lot of people out there that shouldn't be on the skis.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05- They're the people that you need off the water.- Yes.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07And responsible people back on.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10Lovely. Well, I'm glad you enjoy that, Gary(!)
0:32:11 > 0:32:14Got that bee out of the bonnet. Now, the money moment.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16The money moment. The £300 money moment.
0:32:16 > 0:32:20Here we go. £300. There we go. £300 apiece. You know the rules.
0:32:20 > 0:32:24Your experts await. And off you go. And very, very, very good luck.
0:32:24 > 0:32:29The pressure is really on for our teams as they only have one hour
0:32:29 > 0:32:33to find three items, although they do have £300 to blow on them.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38So, with plenty of ground to cover, I'm sure they'll be grateful for some expert guidance.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42Captain for the Reds is Jonathan Pratt.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46And riding the waves with the Blues is Charles Hanson. Oh, dear!
0:32:54 > 0:32:56- They've got their flag raised, as well.- Wow.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Is it your flag, madam?
0:32:58 > 0:33:01- What's the best price, sir, on it? - I can do you 75.- Yeah.
0:33:01 > 0:33:06- I quite like it, cos it's got nice social, military interest, of course.- Yeah.
0:33:06 > 0:33:10It's in fairly good condition and if it's hung well in the sale room, you could do quite well with that.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12Would you be interested in it, Tash?
0:33:12 > 0:33:14Absolutely. Stand up for your country.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- We'll have a think, but thank you for your time.- Thank you.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19Sounds like they might be back for that.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22Now, have the Reds spotted anything that's taken their fancy?
0:33:22 > 0:33:24How's that, then?
0:33:24 > 0:33:27- Scary Spice.- Yeah.
0:33:27 > 0:33:28Possibly not antique, that.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Is there no discount?
0:33:33 > 0:33:36Curiosity, how much would it cost to buy?
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- We've got 75 on it and the best on it is 60.- Right.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41OK. And it's what, 1885, thereabouts?
0:33:41 > 0:33:44- Yeah. It's fully hallmarked. - Right. London hallmarked. Yes.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46Nice, ebonised work.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49Still got the original bottom on it, as well, which is nice.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52Yes. Very, very nice. And the absolute best?
0:33:52 > 0:33:5360.
0:33:53 > 0:33:5760. Yeah. Yeah. It's nice. Nice example.
0:33:57 > 0:33:58Yeah. That's very good.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01- It's a stylish cane. - OK. Shall we think about it?
0:34:01 > 0:34:04Think about it, because that's one of my favourite pieces.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06- Yeah.- 40 minutes to go. - Fine.- Plenty of time.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08We can make a dash back, I think.
0:34:08 > 0:34:11- Let's come back. - Thanks for your time.- Thank you.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14Another item Gary is interested in.
0:34:14 > 0:34:20The Blues seem to have found lots that they like, but they haven't actually parted with any cash yet.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Now, what are those Reds up to?
0:34:22 > 0:34:26Well, it weighs a blinking ton, which is actually quite a good sign.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29It's a lacquered brass theodolite, or a level.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33It's a difficult one, really. I'm no great expert when it comes to this sort of thing,
0:34:33 > 0:34:37but it would be used as a surveyor's instrument.
0:34:37 > 0:34:42What I would obviously be wary of is that you do get fakes of this sort of thing made in the Far East.
0:34:42 > 0:34:43But I think the quality's too good.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46- Would you reduce the price on it? - Um...- Like 80?
0:34:46 > 0:34:50I can't do 80, but I can do 85. 110 at the moment.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52What do you think, Richard?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54I was going to say to you, "What do you think?"
0:34:54 > 0:34:58Well, she's come down by £25, so if it is really...
0:34:58 > 0:35:00It's well made.
0:35:00 > 0:35:04If you just have one in a sale, the internet generates the people.
0:35:04 > 0:35:08I mean, you rarely get a collection of these at auction.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11- Yeah.- But £85, I think that's probably a good deal.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14- Shall we try that one? - OK. Thank you very much.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17I don't think I'm as confident as I ought to be!
0:35:17 > 0:35:19- SELLER:- If it makes 200, I want a cut!
0:35:19 > 0:35:23I hope for the Reds' sake it does make £200.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25Wouldn't that be nice?
0:35:26 > 0:35:30That's lovely. That's a really nice jug.
0:35:32 > 0:35:35It's had some restoration and what we do is test it by doing this.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37OK. So it's been restored there.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40You might think, "My God, that's awful."
0:35:40 > 0:35:43By rubbing your tooth on that part, you can see it's been restored.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45- That's a nice jug.- How do you know? What do you feel for?
0:35:45 > 0:35:48- Yeah.- You tap this side.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51- Yeah.- And that side there... is very soft.- OK.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53- Oh, OK.- But it's a nice jug. Is it yours, sir, this jug?
0:35:53 > 0:35:59It's nice. ..No, it's priced at £58.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02What's the best you'll take? £50.
0:36:02 > 0:36:041820-ish?
0:36:04 > 0:36:05- Yes.- Yeah.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Like it? Not really.- I don't.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10Well, at least she's honest.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13But yet another item they haven't bought.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19What do you think? Is it a bit heavy?
0:36:19 > 0:36:23Well, the key for these things is condition, and the glass is in good order.
0:36:23 > 0:36:28You've got some scratches on the foot rim which essentially helps you say it's...
0:36:28 > 0:36:31This is an object that would have been picked up quite often.
0:36:31 > 0:36:33Picking up and putting down on a dressing table,
0:36:33 > 0:36:36it's going to get wear on the foot rim. That's about right.
0:36:36 > 0:36:41The other thing is, you often find that you get later mounts
0:36:41 > 0:36:44put onto glass where they ground down something slightly larger.
0:36:44 > 0:36:51But looking inside, obviously, it's got a thread and the glass seems to be in nice order inside.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54And it hasn't been dropped in any way, obviously. There's no dents.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56What is your, eh, best?
0:36:56 > 0:36:58£50 is the lady's best.
0:36:58 > 0:37:0045?
0:37:00 > 0:37:02- Go on, then. 45.- OK.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04- Thank you.- There we go.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Shall we have a sit down as well?
0:37:07 > 0:37:09We'll bring the bits to you now.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13Come on, Jonathan. This isn't the time to be sitting down.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15You might be two items ahead of the Blues,
0:37:15 > 0:37:20but don't relax too much, as they're going back to look at the flag.
0:37:20 > 0:37:25Sir? Just remind me, the provenance to this... How do you know it's come from the Falklands?
0:37:25 > 0:37:29This was on HMS Active and there is a pennant that comes with it.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32- Right.- It's here.- Right.
0:37:32 > 0:37:36Which has HMS Active and there's the serial number on there.
0:37:36 > 0:37:37Great. So it's all completely...?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39- Yeah. I did a little research.- Good.
0:37:39 > 0:37:43- Now, your best price, sir, will be how much?- Well, I'll do 75.
0:37:43 > 0:37:44£75 for you, best.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48- 70 and we have a deal?- Go on, then.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- Yeah. 70.- Shake on it. Shake on it.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52- Thank you very much.- Thanks, sir.
0:37:52 > 0:37:59Not bad work, Gary, although it has taken you 35 minutes to buy your first item.
0:37:59 > 0:38:05The Blues banked the cane earlier and, surprise, surprise, they're back for a second look.
0:38:05 > 0:38:11- All importantly, Natasha, we've got the all-important lion passant to confirm it's sterling silver.- Yeah.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14There, Gary, is our hallmark for London, the leopard's head.
0:38:14 > 0:38:18And the all-important date letter which is, what, circa 1890.
0:38:18 > 0:38:211885, that one.
0:38:21 > 0:38:251885, so it's a good, late Victorian and it's ebonised stone colour.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Would you take 55?
0:38:27 > 0:38:31I will take another £2 off. I'll meet you 58 and that'll be me done.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34How about 57.50, then?
0:38:34 > 0:38:35I'll do you 57.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Lovely. 57, then? Yeah.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40The female touch here. The female touch.
0:38:40 > 0:38:44Oh, Natasha, you do drive a hard bargain, love.
0:38:44 > 0:38:47But that extra pound at auction could make all the difference.
0:38:47 > 0:38:51So it's 2-2 to our teams and 20 minutes remaining on the clock.
0:38:51 > 0:38:58The Reds have £170 left, the Blues have just a few pounds more - 173.
0:38:58 > 0:39:03The jug isn't Natasha's cup of tea, but she seems to trust
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Charles' opinion and the Blues are back, weighing it up.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08It's 190 years old.
0:39:08 > 0:39:09OK. It's printed,
0:39:09 > 0:39:12Gary, and hand-enamelled. "God speed the plough".
0:39:12 > 0:39:16Obviously made, I think, to commemorate a wedding
0:39:16 > 0:39:21in the 1820s, so again, back to five years after Waterloo.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24You know, 15 years before Queen Victoria came on the throne.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27I've already said I don't like it, but... I think it would probably do well.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31At the end of the day, Mr Wonnacott, you know, Dad, you might tell me,
0:39:31 > 0:39:35son, it's a bad buy, but I like this and I think it will make a profit.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38At £50, it might be, Charles. Don't be too hard on yourself, lad.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41The Reds started off so well.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45Now there's less than ten minutes left and still one item to find.
0:39:45 > 0:39:49Luckily for them, they've got £170 to blow on it.
0:39:49 > 0:39:50I like the colours.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54Exactly. That's a nice bit of decorative glass. You like the colours.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57I actually quite like this type of coloured glass, personally.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00- Yeah.- It's probably made out of white glass.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02We need to ask...Dad?
0:40:02 > 0:40:04- Yes!- How much is it?
0:40:04 > 0:40:07- £25.- £25.- I'll do it for 20 quid.
0:40:07 > 0:40:09You can do it for £20. Not a lot of money.
0:40:09 > 0:40:11Can you actually put something in there?
0:40:11 > 0:40:13What is that?
0:40:13 > 0:40:18- There's a few lines going across here.- No.- No.
0:40:18 > 0:40:22Little bit of a chip. I think it's been polished out slightly. 15?
0:40:22 > 0:40:26- 15.- Do you think we're going to make anything on it if it's not perfect?
0:40:26 > 0:40:30That's just part of the body. That's just the way the colour is done.
0:40:30 > 0:40:31That's not a flaw in itself.
0:40:31 > 0:40:3212 quid?
0:40:32 > 0:40:36Toss you a coin. 12 or 15.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37Go on, then.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41It's not a special coin out the van. Here we go.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43- Heads.- Heads.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45Tails.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47- 15 quid.- Never mind, then.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53Even though they lost the coin toss, Sadie worked her charm
0:40:53 > 0:40:57on the stallholder and convinced him to sell it to them for £12.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03No. It's not the half-time whistle.
0:41:03 > 0:41:05It's full-time. Game's over.
0:41:05 > 0:41:06Stop the shopping.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09Jonathan isn't so certain about the theodolite,
0:41:09 > 0:41:13but Sadie weighed it up and decided £25 off was a good deal.
0:41:13 > 0:41:15They paid 85.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17Just a few minutes later, in the same tent,
0:41:17 > 0:41:19Sadie spotted the scent bottle and again,
0:41:19 > 0:41:23got a bit extra knocked off and it was hers for £45.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28With just five minutes remaining,
0:41:28 > 0:41:29Jonathan recommended some glass.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32And with Sadie's help, they knocked the price down to £12.
0:41:34 > 0:41:35Well, that was fun, wasn't it?
0:41:35 > 0:41:41A real riot. Now, you cantered round to get two items from one stall in the first half an hour.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43- We did. Yeah.- Very proud of you, Dad.- We were lucky.
0:41:43 > 0:41:48All that training, Richard. Sadie, which is your favourite piece?
0:41:48 > 0:41:51- The perfume bottle. - Yes. What about you, Rich?
0:41:51 > 0:41:53- The theodolite.- Your favourite.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Which piece for the biggest profit, Sadie?
0:41:55 > 0:41:59- I hope the theodolite.- And you agree with that?- I would agree.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01OK. Fine. We'll hope for the best there.
0:42:01 > 0:42:07You spent £142. I'd like £158 of leftover lolly, please.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10£158, which is an awful lot of dosh.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13- I don't understand what's going on here.- A bit of shrapnel.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15But straight over to you, Jonathan.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18- Thank you. - Are you feeling kind of confident?
0:42:18 > 0:42:20I've seen the right place to go to.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22- You have confidence?- Yes.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25Well, we look forward to the fruits of your labour.
0:42:25 > 0:42:30- As long as it's just my labour.- Yes. - OK.- Talking about labour...
0:42:30 > 0:42:31We'll skip this subject!
0:42:31 > 0:42:35- OK.- Very good luck, Jonathan. See what I mean? Really dodgy, this.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Anyway, let's check up what the Blues bought, eh?
0:42:39 > 0:42:42Both Gary and Nattie came over all patriotic,
0:42:42 > 0:42:45so let's hope the bidders get behind them at the auction.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48They bought the flag for £70.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51Gary was instantly taken with the cane
0:42:51 > 0:42:54and with Natasha's help, they got the price down to £57.
0:42:56 > 0:42:57Like all their purchases today,
0:42:57 > 0:43:00the jug was also something they spotted earlier.
0:43:00 > 0:43:04It wasn't to Natasha's taste, but they went with it anyway, for £50.
0:43:06 > 0:43:11You were very methodical in your walk around the fair and decisive,
0:43:11 > 0:43:13which is admirable, and you managed to get inside
0:43:13 > 0:43:16before it started to rain too, which is very clever.
0:43:16 > 0:43:19- Did you have a great time, Natasha? - I had a great time.
0:43:19 > 0:43:22- Was it good for you, Dad? - Yeah. Very, very good.
0:43:22 > 0:43:24- Which is your favourite piece? - I like the cane.
0:43:24 > 0:43:27- The cane?- Yeah. - And what about you, Gary?
0:43:27 > 0:43:30I like the cane, yes, very much so.
0:43:31 > 0:43:34We're into a flagellation party. What fun!
0:43:34 > 0:43:37And which piece is going to bring the biggest profit, do you think?
0:43:37 > 0:43:39The cane will bring the biggest profit.
0:43:39 > 0:43:41It's ridiculous.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43- The biggest profit, Dad?- The flag.
0:43:43 > 0:43:47- Oh, the flag.- Yes.- Ah, we've got a change of heart here. Excellent.
0:43:47 > 0:43:51- You spent £177, yes?- Yes. We did.
0:43:51 > 0:43:53I'd like £123 of leftover lolly.
0:43:53 > 0:43:55Thank you very much. £123.
0:43:55 > 0:43:59- What are you going to do with all that money?- I'm feeling broody.
0:43:59 > 0:44:03- Broody?- With Natasha's forthcoming events,
0:44:03 > 0:44:06I'm looking for something with a certain baby feel about it.
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Lovely. I should stop while you're ahead.
0:44:09 > 0:44:14Go off and make a serious purchase, Charles.
0:44:15 > 0:44:17It's time to make our final trip to the auction.
0:44:26 > 0:44:33We've come to see Elizabeth Talbot at TW Gaze, auction house extraordinaire.
0:44:33 > 0:44:35- Very nice to be here.- Thank you.
0:44:35 > 0:44:38- Our Red team, Sadie and Richard, they went with this theodolite.- Yes.
0:44:38 > 0:44:43Actually, it's no more a theodolite than I am, is it? It looks like a theodolite.
0:44:43 > 0:44:47It does. It is a 20th-century and very late 20th-century reproduction.
0:44:47 > 0:44:50What do you think it's going to bring, or might bring?
0:44:50 > 0:44:53- Well, we've put an estimate of £100 to 150 on it.- Oh, have you?
0:44:53 > 0:44:58Oh, well, that's very generous. No. £85 they paid.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01Next is a little silver-topped scent bottle.
0:45:01 > 0:45:08Very pretty item and to have a screw lid rather than a hinged lid is quite unusual too. Condition is nice.
0:45:08 > 0:45:11So we've put an estimate of £48 to £58 on that.
0:45:11 > 0:45:1648 to 58. They paid £45, so they'll be delighted if they turn a small profit on that, which is great.
0:45:16 > 0:45:20And now we swim over very quickly to the Isle of Wight,
0:45:20 > 0:45:23which is a long way from Norfolk, and we got this little turquoise...
0:45:23 > 0:45:27- The medina.- The medina glass vase. - There is a collector's market for that ware.
0:45:27 > 0:45:30It isn't 100% perfect, but it is a good colour.
0:45:30 > 0:45:32Nice size. Our estimate is £15 to £25.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35- Well, they only paid £12, which is cheap enough, isn't it?- Yes.
0:45:35 > 0:45:37It depends on what happens with the theodolite.
0:45:37 > 0:45:45And just in case we catch the wrong angle with that, we'd better go and have a look at the bonus buy.
0:45:45 > 0:45:50So, Sadie and Richard, you spent £142. You gave £158 to Jonathan,
0:45:50 > 0:45:53who has your bonus buy. Let's have a look.
0:45:55 > 0:45:58That's hideous. Oh, that is awful.
0:45:58 > 0:46:01Oh...right.
0:46:01 > 0:46:03We have a stuffed fish in a case.
0:46:03 > 0:46:07It's not that old, but it's nicely presented. It's in good condition
0:46:07 > 0:46:09and it's very decorative for the people who like this sort of thing.
0:46:09 > 0:46:12Are there many people out there that like stuffed fish these days?
0:46:12 > 0:46:15Well, let me tell you first of all how much I paid for it.
0:46:15 > 0:46:19- £35.- You were done. - Not a lot of money.
0:46:19 > 0:46:21Well, on that happy note...(!)
0:46:21 > 0:46:23Cos they obviously love it.
0:46:23 > 0:46:26Why don't we find out, at least for the audience at home,
0:46:26 > 0:46:29what the auctioneer thinks about the old fish case.
0:46:30 > 0:46:32So, Elizabeth, here comes supper.
0:46:32 > 0:46:35- Thank you, Tim. - How does that grab you, seriously?
0:46:35 > 0:46:38It doesn't grab me at all, I'm afraid.
0:46:38 > 0:46:40This, to me, is the fishy version of the theodolite.
0:46:40 > 0:46:44- I personally think this is a reproduction bogus piece.- Do you?
0:46:44 > 0:46:48It's in a new case with new backing, which automatically makes me think
0:46:48 > 0:46:50that it's not a good piece for collectors.
0:46:50 > 0:46:53Well spotted, Elizabeth, cos that would be so easy not to reckon.
0:46:53 > 0:46:56Anyway, for only £35,
0:46:56 > 0:46:58which is what Jonathan Pratt paid for this as a bonus buy,
0:46:58 > 0:47:03is there any prospect, if it's a modern reproduction of it, making any sort of profit, do you think?
0:47:03 > 0:47:06- We put a £20 to £30 estimate on it, as a decorative item.- Hmm.
0:47:06 > 0:47:08Now, that's it for the Reds.
0:47:08 > 0:47:12Moving on seamlessly to the Blues, Natasha and Gary.
0:47:12 > 0:47:16Their first item, I think, is most interesting, this Union Jack.
0:47:16 > 0:47:19What about that for a historically-interesting flag?
0:47:19 > 0:47:22- Full-sized flags do sell quite well.- Hmm.
0:47:22 > 0:47:26So, we have hopes that it will make between £80 to £120.
0:47:26 > 0:47:30£80 to £120. Well, that would be brilliant, because they paid £70.
0:47:30 > 0:47:32- That's fair.- Yeah. What about the cane?
0:47:32 > 0:47:34The cane is late Victorian, it dates from the late 1880s,
0:47:34 > 0:47:39silver-topped, fairly straightforward, but it is pretty. The silver is quite well repused.
0:47:39 > 0:47:42Think about £100, £150 on that one.
0:47:42 > 0:47:43- They only paid 57.- Oh, right.
0:47:43 > 0:47:44So, that was a complete bargain.
0:47:44 > 0:47:48Brilliant. And what about the lovely agricultural jug?
0:47:48 > 0:47:49It's a lovely piece of pearlware
0:47:49 > 0:47:53and it's so well decorated, front and back.
0:47:53 > 0:47:55And if your surname happens to be Wild,
0:47:55 > 0:47:59the family that's got the connection, so much the better.
0:47:59 > 0:48:01- I think that's a super piece.- Yes.
0:48:01 > 0:48:05And we hope that it will find a happy home between 120 and £180.
0:48:05 > 0:48:06Gosh. £50 is all they paid.
0:48:06 > 0:48:10So they could triple their money on this. That is exciting.
0:48:10 > 0:48:14Well, before we get too flushed, let's check out their bonus buy.
0:48:14 > 0:48:19Natasha and Gary, you managed to spend 177, which is pretty good going. You gave Charles £123.
0:48:19 > 0:48:21Let's see what you bought, Charles.
0:48:21 > 0:48:25I like to spend money, but thinking of Natasha's forthcoming baby
0:48:25 > 0:48:27and all of that, I've got... Look at this.
0:48:27 > 0:48:32It's different. It's interesting. It's quite speculative.
0:48:32 > 0:48:38What I've bought is a Chinese softwood baby's bath tub.
0:48:38 > 0:48:42And it will date to about 1890-1910, and I quite like it. What do you think?
0:48:42 > 0:48:46I think it'll probably do quite well if someone put plants in it.
0:48:46 > 0:48:48Put a baby, Natasha.
0:48:48 > 0:48:50A baby's not going in that.
0:48:50 > 0:48:52- It cost me £40.- £40.
0:48:52 > 0:48:57So, hopefully, Gary, it's going to make, you know, £60 or £70.
0:48:57 > 0:49:00Course, you don't have to take it.
0:49:00 > 0:49:04You may decide to reject it, but for the benefit of the audience at home,
0:49:04 > 0:49:08let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles' baby bath.
0:49:08 > 0:49:10Now, the big question is, Elizabeth...
0:49:10 > 0:49:14would you be bathing one of your babies in this fellow?
0:49:14 > 0:49:16I wouldn't now. They're too big.
0:49:16 > 0:49:20I've never seen the like. I think this is quite charming, actually.
0:49:20 > 0:49:23But not as a bath, but as just a wonderful,
0:49:23 > 0:49:25decorative planter. I like the colour.
0:49:25 > 0:49:27I like the mellow nature of it.
0:49:27 > 0:49:30And so we've estimated at £40 to £60, because I think for that money
0:49:30 > 0:49:33you couldn't really achieve a similar decorative item elsewhere.
0:49:33 > 0:49:37Charles Hanson rates it. He paid £40.
0:49:37 > 0:49:41- Oh, well, I think that's fine.- You're putting a profitable estimate on it.
0:49:41 > 0:49:43- What more can one ask?- Absolutely.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46- Well, actually, I do have a question to ask you.- Yes? - How are you feeling about today?
0:49:46 > 0:49:48I'm all geared up for it, Tim, yes!
0:49:55 > 0:49:57So, team, how you feeling? Sades?
0:49:57 > 0:50:00I wouldn't say I'm overly confident.
0:50:00 > 0:50:03- Are you not?- No. Hopeful. - What about you, Richard?
0:50:03 > 0:50:06Anxious, I think is the word to describe it. Yeah.
0:50:06 > 0:50:10We haven't got a lot of confidence, really, have we? No. We'll see.
0:50:10 > 0:50:14First up, then, is the theodolite and here it comes.
0:50:14 > 0:50:18We have the 20th-century brass theodolite.
0:50:18 > 0:50:19Start me at 80.
0:50:19 > 0:50:2350 to start, surely. Come on. It's a good piece there at 50.
0:50:23 > 0:50:2950 bid. Thank you. 50, I have. I'll take 5. 55. 60. 5.
0:50:29 > 0:50:3265, in the gallery. At 65 now. Where's 70?
0:50:32 > 0:50:36At £65 only. Any advance on 65?
0:50:36 > 0:50:3965. That's not so good.
0:50:39 > 0:50:41Could be worse, though. Minus £20.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44Well done, Jonathan. Good. Now, your second one.
0:50:44 > 0:50:48The crystal glass silver-topped scent bottle with a screw stopper.
0:50:48 > 0:50:51I'll start at just £28. £28 bid.
0:50:51 > 0:50:53At 28. 30. 2.
0:50:54 > 0:50:5835. 38. 40. 2. 45. 48.
0:50:58 > 0:51:00And 50. 5.
0:51:00 > 0:51:0355 bid. 55. 55. With me at 55 now.
0:51:03 > 0:51:0560, anywhere else?
0:51:05 > 0:51:07At 55. Am I missing anybody?
0:51:07 > 0:51:09At 55. And 60. 5.
0:51:09 > 0:51:13Yes? 70 and I'm out. 70. It's now in the room at 70.
0:51:13 > 0:51:15Any advance on £70?
0:51:15 > 0:51:1770 takes that, thank you.
0:51:17 > 0:51:19That's absolutely super, isn't it?
0:51:19 > 0:51:23£170. That's plus £25.
0:51:24 > 0:51:28Lot 222. We have the medina turquoise ground lugged vase, there.
0:51:28 > 0:51:31Little bit of damage. Interest shown. High start at £12(!)
0:51:31 > 0:51:33£12 bid on the medina. At 12.
0:51:33 > 0:51:3615. 18. 20. 2.
0:51:36 > 0:51:3925. 28.
0:51:39 > 0:51:40That is my item(?)
0:51:40 > 0:51:42It's exciting. 30 bid.
0:51:42 > 0:51:4732. You'll regret it. 35. A new bid at 38, with me.
0:51:47 > 0:51:4940 and I'm out. 40.
0:51:49 > 0:51:50Gentleman's bid, 40.
0:51:50 > 0:51:53I'll take 2. 42, new bidder.
0:51:53 > 0:51:5445. 48.
0:51:54 > 0:51:5648 is further back.
0:51:56 > 0:51:57At 48. You coming back, madam?
0:51:57 > 0:52:00At £48. At 48.
0:52:00 > 0:52:02At 48 further back and selling...
0:52:02 > 0:52:07Well, isn't that brilliant? That's plus £36.
0:52:07 > 0:52:09You've tripled your money.
0:52:11 > 0:52:14That is really good. So, £36. You were £5 up before.
0:52:14 > 0:52:18You are plus £41. How good is that?
0:52:18 > 0:52:19It's marvellous. Now...
0:52:19 > 0:52:26- Make a decision on your fish.- You can bank the £41, yes, or you could go with the fish which costs £35.
0:52:27 > 0:52:30Are you going to go with the bonus buy or not? Quickly.
0:52:30 > 0:52:31- No.- No?
0:52:31 > 0:52:34This we have catalogued as a composition of a roach.
0:52:34 > 0:52:36Make up your own mind. I don't think it's as old
0:52:36 > 0:52:38as it's purporting to be.
0:52:38 > 0:52:4120, I have. Straight in at 20.
0:52:41 > 0:52:45I'll take 2. For nothing, at 20.
0:52:45 > 0:52:47- £20.- OK. Well, there we go.
0:52:47 > 0:52:49Minus £15.
0:52:49 > 0:52:51I think our decision was...
0:52:51 > 0:52:54- Well done. Well done. - Even if I do say so myself.- OK.
0:52:54 > 0:52:56- I built you up for that.- Well done.
0:52:56 > 0:53:00You banked your £41 and you have hung on to your £41,
0:53:00 > 0:53:04which could be a winning score, but don't tell the Blues, all right?
0:53:09 > 0:53:11So, do you know how the Reds got on?
0:53:11 > 0:53:13- I have no idea. - You didn't talk to them?
0:53:13 > 0:53:15- No. No. They wished us good luck. - Did they?
0:53:15 > 0:53:19Well, that's very gentleman and ladylike to do that.
0:53:19 > 0:53:22First lot up is the flag and here it comes.
0:53:22 > 0:53:23The union flag here,
0:53:23 > 0:53:28with a provenance linked, apparently, to the Falklands War in HMS Active.
0:53:28 > 0:53:31And I start here at £12. £12.
0:53:31 > 0:53:33Bid at 12. £12, I have.
0:53:33 > 0:53:38£12. 15. 18. 20. 22. 25. 28. And 30. 2.
0:53:38 > 0:53:4035 and 38. 40. 42.
0:53:40 > 0:53:4145 and I'm out.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44At £45. Am I missing anybody?
0:53:44 > 0:53:45At £45. Are you all done...?
0:53:47 > 0:53:49- Oh, no!- £45. That's bad luck.
0:53:49 > 0:53:53- Oh, dear!- That's five off 50. You're minus £25. - Yeah.- Oh, dear.
0:53:53 > 0:53:56We have the late Victorian ebonised cane with silver top.
0:53:56 > 0:53:58Start me at 50.
0:53:58 > 0:54:0130, I'll take, surely, to start.
0:54:01 > 0:54:0330 bid, sir. Thank you. 30, I have, I'll take 2.
0:54:03 > 0:54:05It's £30 only.
0:54:05 > 0:54:1032. 35. 38. 40. 2. 45.
0:54:10 > 0:54:1448. And 50. 5. 55 in the back corner.
0:54:14 > 0:54:1660, new bidder.
0:54:16 > 0:54:1965. And 70. 70, with the lady.
0:54:19 > 0:54:22Both gentlemen are out. It's 70 at the front now.
0:54:22 > 0:54:23I'll take 5 again. At 70.
0:54:23 > 0:54:26It's a front bid. Any advance?
0:54:26 > 0:54:27£70. Thank you.
0:54:27 > 0:54:33That is plus £13...which means, overall, you're minus £12 still.
0:54:33 > 0:54:35Now, your jug.
0:54:35 > 0:54:38We have a 19th-century Staffordshire pottery farmer's arms jug.
0:54:38 > 0:54:39Dedicated to John and Ruth Wild.
0:54:39 > 0:54:4250 to start. £50.
0:54:42 > 0:54:46Anybody in? Come on. 30's a low start here.
0:54:46 > 0:54:4730, going backwards. 32.
0:54:47 > 0:54:4935. 38. And 40. And 2.
0:54:49 > 0:54:5045. 48. And 50. 5.
0:54:50 > 0:54:51Come on, one more.
0:54:51 > 0:54:52Where's Mr and Mrs Wild?
0:54:52 > 0:54:5455 at the front. 60?
0:54:54 > 0:54:56Where's 60? At 55, all done...?
0:54:56 > 0:55:01- Dear, oh, dear. - I could just cry about that.
0:55:01 > 0:55:05£55. You made a £5 profit on it.
0:55:05 > 0:55:07There's nothing the matter with that,
0:55:07 > 0:55:09but you are still minus £7.
0:55:09 > 0:55:12How can that be minus £7?
0:55:12 > 0:55:15But there you go. It's minus £7.
0:55:15 > 0:55:17We can't be miserable. What are you going to do about the baby's bath?
0:55:17 > 0:55:21- Shall we go for it? - Yeah, what have we got to lose?
0:55:21 > 0:55:25The unusual Chinese softwood painted baby's bath.
0:55:25 > 0:55:27Start me at £30, for this.
0:55:27 > 0:55:30£20. Come on. £20 on this. 10 bid only.
0:55:30 > 0:55:33At 10 bid only. 10 I have. I'll take 12. 12. 15.
0:55:33 > 0:55:3518. 20. 2?
0:55:35 > 0:55:3722, new bidder. 22 is now in blue.
0:55:37 > 0:55:43I've lost you above. Any advance on £22?
0:55:43 > 0:55:48£22. I'm afraid you've accumulated another £18 worth of debt,
0:55:48 > 0:55:52which means, overall, you are minus £25. Don't despair, though.
0:55:52 > 0:55:54- It could be a winning score. - Yes, yes.
0:55:54 > 0:55:57You don't know how the Reds got on
0:55:57 > 0:56:00and all will be revealed in a moment.
0:56:04 > 0:56:08Swings and roundabouts, eh? You chaps been talking to one another?
0:56:08 > 0:56:10No communication, so you don't know who's ahead or who's behind?
0:56:10 > 0:56:14- No.- No. Well, I have to reveal
0:56:14 > 0:56:19that the team behind by quite a chalk are the Blues.
0:56:19 > 0:56:21Oh!
