0:00:06 > 0:00:10- And action!- Yes, we're off.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11We've got two teams.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14We've also got two experts. So what are we waiting for?
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Let's go bargain hunting.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Welcome to the Oswestry Showground in Shropshire.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50It's all going on in today's programme.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Coming up... Charles goes on the charm offensive for the Reds...
0:00:54 > 0:00:56I like the dress you're wearing today.
0:00:56 > 0:01:00..while Jonathan has to prove his credentials to the blue team.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02You know what? Anybody would think you were an expert.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05But at auction, will they all be in for a shock?
0:01:08 > 0:01:10The ministry that is Bargain Hunt
0:01:10 > 0:01:14are a faithful flock and they clearly know what the rules are.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18But, for those who are inexperienced in these matters, I'll repeat them.
0:01:18 > 0:01:25Each team gets £300 and an hour to shop for three items which are taken away and sold at auction.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27The team that makes the most profit, wins.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31Let's go and meet today's teams.
0:01:31 > 0:01:38Today we have little sister Roxanne with her big brother, Lance, for the Reds. Welcome.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41And two pastors for the Blues, Rob and Phil.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Welcome to Bargain Hunt. Very nice to see you.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48So Roxanne, you're quite accustomed to this acting lark, aren't you?
0:01:48 > 0:01:54Yes, I am. I've been in a small budget film around the local area called Vicious Culture.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56And what were you in Vicious Culture?
0:01:56 > 0:02:01I was a mean solicitor, and I sent down an innocent man.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05- Did you really?- Yes, it was really bad.- That's terrible.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- I know.- So you're interested in cameras and all that, then?
0:02:08 > 0:02:12I don't like them but I like what they can make me look like, if you like!
0:02:12 > 0:02:16Well, I hope you're going to be pleased with how you appear on Bargain Hunt.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18But you've done some driving awareness videos.
0:02:18 > 0:02:24Yeah, I was the backing vocals for a song that a young girl wrote around my area.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28That's hopefully going out to local schools around Wales,
0:02:28 > 0:02:32just to basically make people be a bit more careful on the roads.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Good. And are you working at the moment or are you still a student?
0:02:36 > 0:02:38I'm a full-time barmaid and waitress.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41- Are you?- Yes. - And where do you do that?
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Just at a local holiday camp.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46- Uh-huh. Hi-de-hi?- Yes. - Red coat?- Hi-de-ho.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50- No, unfortunately not.- And you take part in triathlons and all of that.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Yeah, I've been part of the London Triathlon 2008,
0:02:53 > 0:02:56raising money for epilepsy charities and things like that.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Well, you're obviously very charitably motivated, which is lovely, Roxanne.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04And I hope you do well today. Lance, what do you do with yourself?
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- I'm a chef at a local hotel. - And when did you start cooking?
0:03:07 > 0:03:12I started cooking when I was about 14, just doing starters and things, and built it up from there.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Do you cook for yourself at home?
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Do you like cooking kind of for relaxation or is it just too much?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Yeah, I do like cooking but obviously when you're working a lot,
0:03:21 > 0:03:24cooking with food, when you get home it's nice to just relax.
0:03:24 > 0:03:30- And is it interesting, cooking a new dish and creating a new menu? - Definitely, yeah.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35When you create a new menu, the menu changes probably every couple of days or so, so always busy.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39- Good for you. Anyway, you're up for the challenge today, you two? - Yeah.- Oh, yes.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41And I think you're a smashing couple.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Anyway, good luck. Now, Rob, you've been a pastor now for five years.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48- That's right, yes.- So what lead you into this line of work?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51For the last 21 years, I've been involved in industry
0:03:51 > 0:03:55as an operations manager, but for the last six years, I guess, well,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- six years ago I felt the call of God on my life.- So what happens?
0:03:58 > 0:04:02In the middle of the night do you get a thunderbolt come? A vision? What is it?
0:04:02 > 0:04:06- It's something that builds over a number of months.- Oh, I see.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09It's something that you discuss with your family. And I've got a wife and
0:04:09 > 0:04:12three children, three daughters, so it was a big decision for the family.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15- Were you a practising Christian before?- Yes.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17So you had discovered God.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18That's right. Since 1985.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Well, you've made your bed and now you're in it. Are you happy?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25- Very, very happy. - That's the main thing, isn't it?
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Good on you. And how did you meet Phil?
0:04:27 > 0:04:33Part of the theological training that I was doing was to spend some time at a church, and that happened to be
0:04:33 > 0:04:37in Wem, and the church was Wem Baptist Church.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39And, lo and behold, this fella was the pastor there.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42And I've been trying to escape ever since!
0:04:42 > 0:04:45Phil, do you enjoy the job, then?
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Oh, yes. Best job in the world.
0:04:46 > 0:04:51We do stuff, it's great to be able to give good news in a bad-news world. We love doing our job.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55You've been out and about and had a few accidents on windy days, haven't you?
0:04:55 > 0:04:59Yeah, when I first went into the ministry a number of years ago,
0:04:59 > 0:05:03I managed to drop my Bible at a funeral, at a graveside.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05I dropped it in the hole.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Which wasn't very good. The wind caught it and it kind of fell in.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13- What d'you do - nip in and get it back?- Fortunately, I had a very, very good funeral director
0:05:13 > 0:05:15who fetched it back out for me.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17I suppose he has one of those long arm type things?
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- It doesn't happen very often, apparently.- Apparently not. Just as well!
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Anyway, I hope you have a great time today on Bargain Hunt.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27We come to the money moment. Here you go.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29£300 apiece. You know the rules.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33Your experts await. Off you go, and very, very good luck.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37So, will the Blues find anything of virtue,
0:05:37 > 0:05:42or will the Reds be serving us up three tremendous courses?
0:05:42 > 0:05:46To do that, our teams are going to need some expert help today.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49So it's full steam ahead for the Reds with Charles Hanson,
0:05:49 > 0:05:53and making sure that the Blues stay on track is Jonathan Pratt.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Good luck.- Thank you very much. - You'll need it.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59So they've got one hour, two experts and an abundance
0:05:59 > 0:06:02of bargains to browse. So they'd better get cracking.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- Oh, wow.- Some really nice objects.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15- Do you like them?- They're horrible.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17You said you were looking for a violin.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19It's about your size, isn't it?
0:06:19 > 0:06:23- Here you are, Rob. It's a sat nav!- Let's focus.
0:06:23 > 0:06:28Looks like Jonathan might need the patience of a saint with this pair.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30- See that?- You know, I saw that.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35I'm purposefully covering my thumb over that because the shape of that,
0:06:35 > 0:06:40it shows you a little bit of the neo-classical influence of the late 19th century, and the
0:06:40 > 0:06:44sharpness of the edge, it's not a piece of heavily cabinet made stuff.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48It's usable but the mirror is a bit sort of mottled.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Small, functional items in homes are very easy.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53That's what your missus says about you all the time.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57- What, useless?- No, no...! - I didn't say that!
0:06:58 > 0:07:02Anyway, look at that. Small, functional and very useful.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03Thank you very much.
0:07:03 > 0:07:0715 quid. At auction, you sell things rarely for less than 15 quid.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09You know what? Anyone would think you were an expert.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Well, I'm convincing. I bet you get the same reaction in church.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Let's have a chat with the stall holder on that one.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20So, while the blue team reflect on the oak wall mirror...
0:07:20 > 0:07:22It's got all of its anatomy.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24..the Reds continue their search,
0:07:24 > 0:07:28but they don't look like they're about to make any snap decisions.
0:07:28 > 0:07:32We'll come back and get that one if we can't find anything else.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37The Blues, on the other hand, might just be about to make their first buy of the day.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41We'll give you a tenner. Tell you what, 11 quid.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Brilliant. Nice one.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45That's how you do it, Blues.
0:07:45 > 0:07:50- It's OK. I didn't break it.- And that's how you DON'T do it, Reds.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53- We'll have a think about it. - Yeah, can we come back?
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- Thank you awfully.- My advice is, less thinking, more buying.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00You've had over half an hour already.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04- How often do they come up?- Not very often. It's very decorative.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08How much is the Poole uplighter?
0:08:08 > 0:08:11- 50.- It's a colourful thing.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14But at 45, I'd say 40, maybe.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- 40, go on, then. - I wouldn't have said 40.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19I'd have said 30.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Don't listen to him! What does he know?
0:08:22 > 0:08:27I'll tell you what I know - you'll get 65. It all depends at auction.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31- 30 quid.- 35.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- They're a couple of vicars. - 35, go on, then. Yeah, go on.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38It's decorative.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40I don't like it, but it's always very popular.
0:08:43 > 0:08:48Our ministers see the light and buy it with just £46 spent in total, thanks to some ruthless bargaining.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52- Get a move on!- We're coming, we're coming, we're coming.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56Charles's team, meanwhile, have yet to spend a single penny.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58There we are. Look at that.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Is it Charles Horner, or do we know who it's by?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04And the date code must be, what?
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- I'm not sure, actually. - It's like a Blue Peter badge.
0:09:06 > 0:09:12In fact it's Chester silver, and Chester stopped hallmarking in 1962.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- It's arts and crafts, quite stylish. - I used to live in Chester.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Fantastic. Well, there you go.
0:09:17 > 0:09:22- Perfect.- Can I have a look? It reminds me of Blue Peter!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Here's one I made earlier, OK?
0:09:24 > 0:09:27I really like that. Do you like that, Lance?
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Very stylish. Like your earrings, aren't they, a bit?
0:09:30 > 0:09:34I love your beads, by the way. You look very attractive in the beads.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Are they for sale?
0:09:37 > 0:09:42We've got the lion passant, we all know that, sterling silver, and the maker's mark and the date code here.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47Date letter X would make it George V, circa 1915-20.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52What I'm doing, Lance, is making sure the actual clasp has never been obviously been re-inset.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I'm happy that it probably isn't.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59The lady has said we can have it for £20 which,
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- to me, is quite reasonable.- Would you mind buying a brooch, Lance?
0:10:03 > 0:10:05No, I'm not buying it for myself!
0:10:05 > 0:10:08I like it. It's very nice.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11It's got that very sort of Celtic feel about it. The arts and crafts.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Is there any lower price on it? Would you do it for any lower?
0:10:14 > 0:10:16I think 20 is a good price, really.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Yeah, you're going to settle on 20.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Not £18, maybe?
0:10:21 > 0:10:22She's very good.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24It's brother and sister, you see.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28I'm looking for the best I can get for it, basically.
0:10:28 > 0:10:31- I do 18.- Good lady. We'll take it.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34- Thanks, madam.- Finally, after 45 minutes of indecisive dithering,
0:10:34 > 0:10:38the red team buy their very first item.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40..Oh! My nose!
0:10:40 > 0:10:44And now it looks like the blue team are more focused on mucking about,
0:10:44 > 0:10:48- this could be a chance for the Reds to catch up.- More tea, vicar?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50More tea, vicar! That is a good idea!
0:10:56 > 0:11:01- That's nice, isn't it? That's beautiful.- Silver flask.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04What you've got first and foremost is an enamel lid.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07It quite clearly screws open like that.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11There you've got, you'd have had a stopper inside.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15It's, I suppose, a little decanter, a little spirit flask.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Sweet. Look at that wonderful chaste design. Can you see in the light?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22- Nice find, that.- So it's supposed to have the stopper in it?
0:11:22 > 0:11:25It would have a stopper originally. It wouldn't be difficult to replace.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28I've never really seen them with enamel as the lid before.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Normally it's... - It's unusual, isn't it?
0:11:33 > 0:11:36The hallmark is London. It must be about 1918,
0:11:36 > 0:11:38so it's George V. A nice object.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Do you think something like that would do well in auction?
0:11:41 > 0:11:46I think it would. Maybe all you're missing also, you may have had a silver cup on here.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48You'd then serve yourself.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49Would you agree, madam? Exactly.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Your price, £75.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Hopefully you've got your book there and you can...
0:11:57 > 0:11:5960?
0:11:59 > 0:12:02The sweet thing is, the quality is superb.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- But it's just that silver sleeve. - Would 50 help?
0:12:06 > 0:12:09I do like that. I do like that a lot.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11You like it. So why don't you buy it, Roxy?
0:12:11 > 0:12:16Anyway, let's take a breather now from the teams and have a look at MY catch of the day.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Hello. Here's trouble.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Well, there would be trouble if you'd one of these in your pond.
0:12:23 > 0:12:28These pike are vicious killers. Just look at the teeth on this thing.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31Of course, the French like to eat them.
0:12:31 > 0:12:35Anyway, this thing doesn't particularly appeal to me
0:12:35 > 0:12:38as a culinary delight,
0:12:38 > 0:12:41but it is a bit of a delight when it comes to the old taxidermy.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45I'm endlessly fascinated by how the old fashioned taxidermist
0:12:45 > 0:12:52went about removing all the flesh and bones from a dead specimen, and then replaced
0:12:52 > 0:12:58the interior with kapok, having wrapped the surface in arsenic
0:12:58 > 0:13:03to prevent the actual scaly skin from decomposing.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07The fellow that did this one, I reckon, did it in about 1880,
0:13:07 > 0:13:09but he has made an attempt
0:13:09 > 0:13:14at the river bed, with scattering a few mussel shells along the bottom
0:13:14 > 0:13:18and inserting some dried grass to give you the semblance of weed
0:13:18 > 0:13:21on the bottom of the riverbed.
0:13:21 > 0:13:26It's a handsome fish. Taxidermy is ever more collectible,
0:13:26 > 0:13:28particularly the older pieces.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31This has got the right age.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34The case needs a bit of tickling up, but I reckon this thing,
0:13:34 > 0:13:40at £200, which is what it would cost you to buy, isn't too bad.
0:13:40 > 0:13:45In fact, one might say that it's a bit of a fishy bargain.
0:13:45 > 0:13:49Now, let's see if those teams are still fishing around for their last items.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58Got any local watches or anything? Anything made locally?
0:13:58 > 0:14:01It's difficult, because they're usually big, city-made things.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02To me, that looks new.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- Yeah, yeah.- Like, spanking.
0:14:05 > 0:14:09Just cleaned the surface. That has had very little use.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14- What's that going for? - He's asking 75 for it.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17If I have a gold plated pocket watch which comes in,
0:14:17 > 0:14:19I'll immediately say
0:14:19 > 0:14:2230-40, £40-£60.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Whatever the guy's best price on that would be...
0:14:24 > 0:14:26We can debate that.
0:14:26 > 0:14:27That's the Liverpool one, you see.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30That one is better. Do you know why?
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Because it ticks with the right accent.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34- You've got to be kidding!- It does.
0:14:34 > 0:14:40- It goes, "Tick, tock." - Personally, I'd say the gold plated one would be easier to sell.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44So we might come back and have a discussion about that one.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47Can we keep that somewhere?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50We will come back. But that helps us. That's a nice start.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52Nice one, good start.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55It looks like indecision could be catching today.
0:14:55 > 0:15:00- We've only got seven minutes left, and we've got two objects to find. - OK.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03If I were you, I'd go back to the flask!
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- Your sort of thing, that...- Hello.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Get a move on! What are these here?
0:15:09 > 0:15:11We've got three minutes.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Finally...
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- Hello. We're back for this. - We've only got two minutes.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20- How much did you say you could do this for?- 50.- 50? Yes, we'll do it.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22- We've only got 45 left. We haven't got £50.- Have we not?
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- No.- We've only got £45 left, would that be OK?
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Will that be OK? Oh, brilliant.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Nice object. Yeah, nice object.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Pressure, pressure! Right, one more to find.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35Well, look at that, the little minx!
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Roxanne, according to my maths, you've still got £237 left!
0:15:40 > 0:15:42- That's a Brixton number! - Is that your parish?
0:15:42 > 0:15:44Yeah, it's calling home. I worked in Brixton.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Did you?
0:15:46 > 0:15:47I was just looking at that.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51- 1892.- That's really pretty, isn't it? Isn't that lovely?- Yeah.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53- What's this, then, in the middle? - That's tortoiseshell.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55That's tortoiseshell.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00Erm... But in fact, it's hallmarked for London 1892.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02It's actually a very pretty item.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04- I really like that. - It's pretty, isn't it?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06- Yeah, it's the kind of thing I was kind of looking for.- Really?
0:16:06 > 0:16:10- Would it have been a part of a set at any time?- No, I don't think so.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I think it's just purely ornamental.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16For a calling card, or maybe for sweets.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20It's in fairly good condition. There's some slight loss of silver.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22But even so, it's a pretty tray.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24- Yeah, I like it. - What's the best price, sir?
0:16:24 > 0:16:26- What have we got on the ticket?- £75.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Oh, well...
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Obviously, you want to make a profit, don't you?
0:16:30 > 0:16:36- My guide price on this, Roxy, would be between £50 and £70, Lance. - Right.- So my friend over here,
0:16:36 > 0:16:40in his very nice white cap, hat, might be able to give us a discount.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42We'll do it for 60.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45I was thinking around £60, you know, to ask for it.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47- I'll do it for 60, yeah. - I really like it.
0:16:47 > 0:16:52- There's a lot of work gone into the work on the silver.- Quite right.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56- You know...- Could we squeeze an extra five pounds out, do you think?
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- 55?- I'll tell you what we'll do... - Yes.- ..we'll do it for 58.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01- We'll come back to you, sir. - Definitely come back.- Thanks.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05Come back?! You've got to be kidding!
0:17:05 > 0:17:07- There's less than two minutes to go! - That's pretty, isn't it?
0:17:07 > 0:17:09It's very pretty. I like that one.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16We've got a minute left. The clock is ticking.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- So why don't we...?- Get a watch?
0:17:18 > 0:17:22- Very good.- At least the Blues have got the right idea.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26Remember, there are just seconds left to go, Reds!
0:17:27 > 0:17:29God, we've got a minute and a half!
0:17:33 > 0:17:37Could you just whip out the clock we looked at before?
0:17:37 > 0:17:38We like the watch, we like the case.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42- We've got a minute left. - 45 quid.- With the chain?
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- Will you throw a chain in? - Nice chain? A decent chain.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48I wouldn't go with the chain, to be honest with you.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49- Wouldn't go with the chain. - £40 without the chain.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- 40 quid without a chain. - Go on.- Come on.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- It's nearly Christmas. - Yeah? Great, thanks a lot.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- Good man.- Top man.- Sold.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Excellent. Job done, son.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00- D'you know what? That's a bargain. - That's a bargain. Nice one!
0:18:00 > 0:18:03I definitely want to go for that. We haven't got much time.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06- Got about 10 seconds.- It's yours! - Yeah!
0:18:06 > 0:18:09Thank you very much. That's for you.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Oh, thank God!
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Right, time on our hands.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15- Thank you very much.- Time up!
0:18:15 > 0:18:18- High five!- We had two seconds left.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25Now the shopping's over, I want to tell you all about the bonus buy.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30Any leftover lolly from that shopping will be given to the experts to go and find a bonus buy,
0:18:30 > 0:18:33a mystery item that will be revealed at auction,
0:18:33 > 0:18:38and the teams have to decide whether they want to gamble and potentially boost their profits.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Right now, though, let's go and see what the Reds are up to.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45After a slow start, the Red team sail off
0:18:45 > 0:18:48with the arts and crafts brooch for £18.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Lance took a shine to the George V scent bottle and snapped it up
0:18:53 > 0:18:54with just five minutes to go.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57And after more dilly-dallying,
0:18:57 > 0:19:02the Reds finally bought a decorative tortoiseshell tray, priced at £58.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07We've spent all that money. It's not a bad job, really.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10You don't be congratulating yourself straight off!
0:19:10 > 0:19:12- It took you 45 minutes to buy your first item!- Yeah.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13That's just ridiculous!
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Well, we've not spent a lot of money, so that's quite good.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17- How much did you spend?- £121.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- Is that all?- Yes. - £121?- I know.
0:19:20 > 0:19:23Leave it for me, the big finale, the final curtain, I shall spend it all.
0:19:23 > 0:19:27£121, that means, do I want £179?
0:19:27 > 0:19:29- 179. - Yeah, and I have it here.- 179...
0:19:29 > 0:19:31There you go, there's a lot there.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- OK.- Thank you very much.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36There's my week in Corfu!
0:19:36 > 0:19:39Well, it is, isn't it? A week in Corfu currently for four people!
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- Well, come along! - Oh, thank you very much.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46- What do you want Charles to buy for the bonus?- Anything quirky.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49- Yeah.- Mysterious and quirky, there's your challenge.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52- And maybe Chinese as well, Tim. - Oh, Chinese, mysterious and quirky!
0:19:52 > 0:19:54There's a big hint.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Now, let's see what the Blues bought.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58They got off to a raring start
0:19:58 > 0:20:02with a compact oak wall mirror priced at £11.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07After a bit of haggling, they paid £35 for the Poole Pottery light.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11And finally, in the last minute, they bought themselves
0:20:11 > 0:20:15a bit of time, literally, in the form of a gold-plated pocket watch.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19- We've done it.- Here we are.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22- Ah, the man himself! - What do you mean, ah?!
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- Ah!- Are you looking for divine intervention, you chaps?
0:20:24 > 0:20:27- We're doing our best. - We've been trying all day.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Did you have any pulpit talk?
0:20:29 > 0:20:32- Well...- We used every minute to talk and talk and talk.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- We did try to work on Jonathan.- Yeah.
0:20:34 > 0:20:38When I started, I thought I was anti-pasta!
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Ah, very good! Now you're very pro-pasta.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Now I'm pastor-ised!
0:20:43 > 0:20:44He wore the collar, didn't he?
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Shall we just do it?
0:20:47 > 0:20:50He even got dressed for the occasion.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Now listen, how much did you spend?
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Well, we spent in total £86.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58- £86?!- Yes.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Does that mean there's £214 in the collection plate?
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- There is a lot in the collection plate.- £214.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07- But as always, with the collection plate, hand it over.- To ME!
0:21:08 > 0:21:11- There you go!- Thank you very much. - Now, you've got the cash, yes?
0:21:11 > 0:21:14- Thank you very much, yes. - May your God go with you.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17And for me, I'm heading off somewhere right stately.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28Attingham Park in Shropshire was built in 1785
0:21:28 > 0:21:31for Noel Hill, the first Lord Berwick.
0:21:33 > 0:21:39It was inherited by his son, Thomas, second Lord Berwick, in 1789.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43His story is one of obsession, extravagance
0:21:43 > 0:21:46and ultimate great financial loss.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Thomas just loved to spend money, and he did it very well.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54Too well, in fact. Nothing pleased him more than to visit Italy or London
0:21:54 > 0:21:59and return laden with works of art to furnish his new home.
0:21:59 > 0:22:04Needing a suitably grand place to display his collection of pictures,
0:22:04 > 0:22:09he commissioned the architect John Nash to design him this spectacular picture gallery,
0:22:09 > 0:22:14with its novel, illuminated ceiling with iron elements,
0:22:14 > 0:22:18rich red walls to show off the gorgeous pictures and columns.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Ooo-ar!
0:22:24 > 0:22:27Thomas's extravagant spending continued unchecked,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30and he finally met his downfall
0:22:30 > 0:22:36in the shape of one 17-year-old French courtesan, Sophia Dubochet.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38He promptly married her, unsuitably,
0:22:38 > 0:22:41social ignominy and unhappiness ensued,
0:22:41 > 0:22:46but the two of them nevertheless managed to work their way through the family coffers,
0:22:46 > 0:22:50and eventually Thomas was declared bankrupt.
0:22:50 > 0:22:56In 1827, Thomas had to watch practically the entire contents of Attingham
0:22:56 > 0:23:00being sold off in an enormous 16-day auction.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04But one of the pieces which was not sold was retained,
0:23:04 > 0:23:09is this little delight, which was a gift from Thomas
0:23:09 > 0:23:12to his succulent young wife.
0:23:12 > 0:23:16Now, the central element is of course a harp,
0:23:16 > 0:23:20but a harp that's been most exquisitely crafted.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24If you look at the strings, each of those are graduated,
0:23:24 > 0:23:27as they would be in a real harp,
0:23:27 > 0:23:30and the detailing in, for example,
0:23:30 > 0:23:35the metalwork on this scroll top piece, is extraordinary.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38And in front of the harp, we've got a most curious
0:23:38 > 0:23:44patinated metal little monkey, who's chained to the stool.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48You see he's got a collar, and a very fine chain,
0:23:48 > 0:23:52which goes down to the stool, where there's a purpose-built little loop.
0:23:52 > 0:23:57The whole creation sits on a sheet of mother of pearl.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01And then a concave-sided base which has been cast
0:24:01 > 0:24:05and raised with lyres and strands of foliage.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09All in all, a massive amount of workmanship
0:24:09 > 0:24:12has been used to create this thing.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16Concealed within the base is a musical movement.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19And the clue to that, of course,
0:24:19 > 0:24:22is this little key sticking out on the side.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25So, let's give it a tweak and see what happens.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Half a turn, I think.
0:24:29 > 0:24:33MUSIC BOX TINKLES
0:24:42 > 0:24:44Isn't that charming?
0:24:44 > 0:24:49All in all, an absolute tour de force of Swiss workmanship.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51No wonder they didn't put it in the sale.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53The big question is today
0:24:53 > 0:24:58will there be any monkey business over at the auction with our teams?
0:25:11 > 0:25:16Today we are with Halls' Auctioneers in Shrewsbury, with Jeremy Lamont.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18- Very nice to see you Jeremy. - Nice to see you too.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Now, Lance and Roxanne for the Reds went with this brooch.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26Bit of a valkyrie brooch here.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Yes, it looks very Georg Jensen, doesn't it?
0:25:29 > 0:25:31- Yes.- Looking at the Viking theme,
0:25:31 > 0:25:33certainly a Scandinavian theme to it.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36One would think it was perhaps Art Nouveau.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38But it's actually 1948.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Iona style I suppose you'd say.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43Really? 1948, it really doesn't look as late as that, does it?
0:25:43 > 0:25:47Anyway, it's a stylish thing. How much do you think it's worth?
0:25:47 > 0:25:49- 30 to 50?- Great.
0:25:49 > 0:25:53- £18 was paid by Charles Hanson. - I think that was good.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56That's not a bad buy in silver, is it? Nicely made.
0:25:56 > 0:26:01Next is the scent or gin flask.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03This is quite a decorative one.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05It has been wheel cut.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08But it is incomplete as you can see, there's no cup.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10We've put 40 to 60 on it.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14- If it had the bottom you'd be looking at 150, 200.- Yes.
0:26:14 > 0:26:1940 - 60 is fine though because Lance paid £45 for it.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21- That's OK. - That's not too bad, is it?
0:26:21 > 0:26:25Next is this little tray.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26We've called it a pin tray
0:26:26 > 0:26:30- but could it be a desk stand for a little ink bottle?- Could be.
0:26:30 > 0:26:35It's an unusual little item and very decorative so we think £30 to £50.
0:26:35 > 0:26:40£58 paid by Roxanne for that so she may have just gone over the top
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- but the strange thing is, odd little bits of silver, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45There are people who are intrigued.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47They're always in vogue, aren't they?
0:26:47 > 0:26:48In the meanwhile,
0:26:48 > 0:26:52let me just check out what's going on with the bonus buy.
0:26:52 > 0:26:53Now, Lance and Roxanne,
0:26:53 > 0:26:57you are not a couple who like to spend money, are you?
0:26:57 > 0:27:02- No.- Well you will be delighted to know that as you only spent £121
0:27:02 > 0:27:08and you handed £179 to Charles Hanson...
0:27:08 > 0:27:12And you know what? I spent every last penny.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15I spent the whole, the full £179.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- Are you ready?- Yes.
0:27:19 > 0:27:20Look at that.
0:27:20 > 0:27:21Oh, wow.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24Is that a beer keg?
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- Well...- Is it for brandy or something?!
0:27:27 > 0:27:30I would say, first and foremost, it's beautifully cut.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Look at this hobnail decoration
0:27:32 > 0:27:36on this barrel-shaped spirit decanter on this wonderful stand,
0:27:36 > 0:27:39very much in the period 1885, 1890.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43- Late Victorian and I think it's delightful.- What do you think?
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Get down and look at it proper.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48If you come down... Crouchy, crouchy down.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Come on, Lance. Down you come.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52Cos you've got to look at this thing from side on,
0:27:52 > 0:27:57- we've got very chunky legs like you'd get in a pub.- Correct.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00- A sweet little tap down this end. - Correct.
0:28:00 > 0:28:04Cork bung hole in the top complete with Cork, how about that?
0:28:04 > 0:28:07- Is it hallmarked silver as well? - It's not silver, it's silver plate.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11- Oh.- Even so, it's just an object of great quality.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14To late Victorians, when it came to novelty and quality,
0:28:14 > 0:28:15I think this oozes that.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17It also has a certain modern feel.
0:28:17 > 0:28:22There we go. There's a big question you need to ask.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24Will it make a profit?
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Gosh. That's a good question.
0:28:26 > 0:28:31Well, I think this ordinarily ought to make between £200 and £300.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33- Think about it.- Yeah.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Very exciting moment to hang on to.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38- OK.- But for the audience at home
0:28:38 > 0:28:43let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles' little barrel.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46Jeremy, Here's something to warm the cockles of your heart.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Isn't that splendid?
0:28:48 > 0:28:52- It's been made with spirit, hasn't it?- It has.- It's very heavy.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55I'm going to put it down.
0:28:55 > 0:29:01It's a silver-plated spirit barrel and when researching this lot
0:29:01 > 0:29:05we found one that had sold in London a couple of years ago,
0:29:05 > 0:29:09retailed by Ospreys with a silver stand exactly the same as this,
0:29:09 > 0:29:11- made £5,000.- How much?!
0:29:11 > 0:29:14- £5,000.- £5,000?!
0:29:14 > 0:29:15But this is a plate one.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19- However that's a pretty good start, isn't it?- Well, it is.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23I think we've put a couple of hundred pounds on this, 150, 250,
0:29:23 > 0:29:25I think it will take off, this.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28It ought to. Thank you very much for researching that.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30That's most interesting. Isn't it?
0:29:30 > 0:29:32That's it now for the Reds.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36Now, for the Blues, first up for them in their wacky mix
0:29:36 > 0:29:39is this Arts and Crafts wall mirror
0:29:39 > 0:29:42which I quite like from the point of view of the style of the thing.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44I can see that in a modern home.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47Really nice to put your gloves or keys or something
0:29:47 > 0:29:49when you come in through the front door.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51A little wall mirror. Always useful.
0:29:51 > 0:29:53Yes.
0:29:53 > 0:29:57Jonathan paid a handsome prize for that. £11.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01I think he'll get his money back. I think £20 or £30 easily.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04That's what we like to hear. Very good.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Rob found the Poole Pottery wall light.
0:30:06 > 0:30:12I'm slightly on record as not being the greatest fan of Poole Pottery.
0:30:12 > 0:30:16- How do you rate this piece? - It's a very striking thing.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19It's what we might cynically call an antique of the future
0:30:19 > 0:30:23but there will be collectors for it. I think £30 to £50.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27Very good. £35 is paid. So they'll be well pleased with that estimate.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29Jeremy, thank you.
0:30:29 > 0:30:30And the pocketwatch.
0:30:30 > 0:30:36Gold-plated, pretty standard keyless lever pocketwatch.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39- Yes, in a presentation case. - What's the estimate on that?
0:30:39 > 0:30:42- 20 to 30.- Gosh. They paid 40.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45Things are getting tight. They might need their bonus buy.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Let's go and have a look at it.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51OK, our boys in blue, you spent a parsimonious £86.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53Shocking!
0:30:53 > 0:30:58You gave £214 to Jonathan, and you look in pain there, Jonathan,
0:30:58 > 0:31:00so I'm just going to give this a tweak.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03We're going to reveal it...now!
0:31:03 > 0:31:06- Look at that.- It's a very nicely painted picture
0:31:06 > 0:31:10of a couple of spaniels, in the Victorian style.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13There's a great collector's market for this sort of thing
0:31:13 > 0:31:17and when I saw it I thought it was a wonderful object.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19So the big question is, how much did you pay?
0:31:19 > 0:31:22I was doing a bit of a Charles Hanson. I felt rather rich
0:31:22 > 0:31:26and I should have gone for 214 quid but I went for £210.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28That was negotiating...
0:31:28 > 0:31:30I had to hand over blood at that point as well!
0:31:30 > 0:31:34What would you say this would go for?
0:31:36 > 0:31:38Uh...I'm on the spot now!
0:31:38 > 0:31:39That's the question!
0:31:39 > 0:31:43Well, erm... I bought it in a bit of a hurry
0:31:43 > 0:31:46and I think that in hindsight it may not be as old as I first thought.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48So "Victorian style" is STYLE.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51Yeah, sadly so.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54Hence why it's like this in the frame because the picture expert
0:31:54 > 0:31:56had to have the opportunity to look at the back properly,
0:31:56 > 0:32:00which I only got a snip of.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03- Not whilst buying it, anyway. - What would you value it at?
0:32:03 > 0:32:04Ballpark.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08- Do you...?- That's the worry!
0:32:08 > 0:32:09I'm not liking this!
0:32:09 > 0:32:11The hesitation there!
0:32:11 > 0:32:14On this happy note, boys...
0:32:14 > 0:32:17Why don't you park those thoughts and we'll ask the auctioneer
0:32:17 > 0:32:21what he thinks about Jonathan's picture.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24What do you make of this joker?
0:32:24 > 0:32:28On the face of it, on first glance,
0:32:28 > 0:32:29we were quite excited about it,
0:32:29 > 0:32:32compared to what had been paid for it.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35However, if you turn it over and have a look,
0:32:35 > 0:32:40unusually, it's got a piece of modern hardboard on the back.
0:32:40 > 0:32:47- And a bit of brown paper which has been stained.- Artificially aged?
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Artificially aged.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51So it immediately the antennae are up.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54But the painting itself
0:32:54 > 0:32:57is painted, but if you can see,
0:32:57 > 0:33:01it's painted on hardboard, modern hardboard.
0:33:01 > 0:33:05So if you look at the front of the picture out of the frame,
0:33:05 > 0:33:10some of the paint has been thinned in areas around here
0:33:10 > 0:33:14to make it look like natural wear, and if you bought this in a fair
0:33:14 > 0:33:18it would be very easy to think this was a Victorian oil.
0:33:18 > 0:33:24So we put a decorative estimate on it of £100 to £200.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Jonathan paid £210.
0:33:26 > 0:33:31But he soon realised the error of his ways, having paid the money,
0:33:31 > 0:33:33but it's too late to go back.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35So he's explained to his team,
0:33:35 > 0:33:38we're going to run it through the sale anyway.
0:33:38 > 0:33:41But it's very interesting, you analysing it like this,
0:33:41 > 0:33:44just as a fair warning to anybody going out there to buy.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47- Caveat emptor.- That's it.
0:33:47 > 0:33:48What does that mean again?
0:33:48 > 0:33:50- Buyer beware.- There we go.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53Be interesting to see what happens in the auction. Thank you.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56And taking the auction today is Christina Trevanion.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00- How are you feeling?- Nervous.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02Excited.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04- Why are you nervous?- I don't know.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07I just really want the items to do well.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11- What about you, Lancey?- Anxious. We've been waiting for a while.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13- A bit like visiting the dentist? - Yeah!
0:34:13 > 0:34:15Not quite sure what's going to happen.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Here we go. Here comes the brooch.
0:34:18 > 0:34:23264. How about that for £30 for the brooch?
0:34:23 > 0:34:26Little Arts and Crafts style brooch. 30 is bid. At £30.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Are we all done at 30?
0:34:28 > 0:34:33I will sell, make no mistake, at £30. If we're all done, at 30.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35- GAVEL THUMPS - £30! Not bad, Charles.
0:34:35 > 0:34:39Plus £12. That's a good kick off.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41Now...
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Silver-mounted ladies' flask. George Carlsberg and Son.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46London, 1931.
0:34:46 > 0:34:51How about that for £30 anywhere, for the flask at 30?
0:34:51 > 0:34:54At £30, the ladies' flask. At 30.
0:34:54 > 0:34:5620 is bid. On my right at £20.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58At 20. Any further interest at 20?
0:34:58 > 0:35:00I will sell, make no mistake.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03And two against you, sir?
0:35:03 > 0:35:0625, 28, 30.
0:35:06 > 0:35:11That's £30 right, then, at £30. Are we all done at 30?.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13- GAVEL THUMPS - Oh, we want a bit more than that!
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Oh, no. £30. That's minus £15.
0:35:16 > 0:35:20You're now minus £3. Oh, dear.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22It's down to your pin tray, baby.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25Who will start me at £20 for the little pin tray?
0:35:25 > 0:35:2620 is bid. Thank you.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28At £20 with the lady at £20.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Are we all done at 20? And two.
0:35:31 > 0:35:3725, 28, 30, 32, 35, 38, 40,
0:35:37 > 0:35:405, 50, at £50, at the back, then, at £50.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Are we all done at 50?
0:35:42 > 0:35:45- Selling, then, at £50. - More, more, more!
0:35:45 > 0:35:47GAVEL THUMPS
0:35:47 > 0:35:50You're so right, Roxanne! She sold it for £50,
0:35:50 > 0:35:51which is minus eight.
0:35:51 > 0:35:55Which overall means you're minus £11.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58That's ridiculous. Minus £11.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01- That is disappointing.- Lot 271. - I think you've done jolly well.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04What are you going to do? Are you going go with the spirit barrel?
0:36:04 > 0:36:06Are you going to risk £179?
0:36:06 > 0:36:08- Go for it. - OK, I'll leave it up to the lads.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11- It's not my fault.- Fine.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14A family decision. We're going with the barrel. Here it comes.
0:36:14 > 0:36:18Lot 270 is the hobnail cut glass spirit barrel
0:36:18 > 0:36:20with plated mount, circa 1890.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Interesting thing, this, lot 270.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26And who will start me at £100 for it? For the spirit barrel.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28At £100 anywhere? At 100?
0:36:28 > 0:36:32At £100? At 80 anywhere?
0:36:32 > 0:36:36£80. Surely £80 somewhere.
0:36:36 > 0:36:4260 I'm bid, on my right at £60 and I will take at £60. All done at 60?
0:36:42 > 0:36:46I will sell, make no mistake. If you're all done at £60.
0:36:46 > 0:36:48- GAVEL THUMPS - She's going to sell it!
0:36:48 > 0:36:54£60, well, I tell you, I'm speechless.
0:36:54 > 0:36:58- I'm amazed.- That's minus £119.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00I don't believe it.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03- Not too bad. - It could still be a winning score!
0:37:04 > 0:37:09So that's £130, overall losses.
0:37:09 > 0:37:12Isn't that amazing? The joy of the auction, eh?
0:37:12 > 0:37:13Yes, the joys of the auction.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15It just goes to show you never can tell.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17Do not tell the Blues a thing,
0:37:17 > 0:37:20because personally, I'm still in shock.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31- Now, Rob and Phil, how did the Reds get on? Do you know?- Don't know.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33I haven't got a clue. Wouldn't tell us.
0:37:33 > 0:37:34No divine intervention here?
0:37:34 > 0:37:39- None at all.- No messages beaming down from on high?
0:37:39 > 0:37:42- We often do but not yet.- Just wait and see what happens.- Perfect.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44First up is going to be Jonathan's mirror.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46Here it comes.
0:37:46 > 0:37:53Lot 286 and I have interest here with me on commission at £25.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57On commission at £25. With me at 25. Are we all done at 25?
0:37:57 > 0:38:02I will sell, make no mistake. If we're all done at 25.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05£25. Plus £14.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08£14 profit. Look at that.
0:38:08 > 0:38:13The Poole Pottery wall uplighter, decorated by Nicola Massarella.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Lot 287.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17And who'll start me at £20 for it?
0:38:17 > 0:38:19At 20. 20 is bid. Thank you.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23And two, 25. 28, 30, 32,
0:38:23 > 0:38:29- 35, 38, 40, 5, 50... - Well done, Bob!- ..5, 60.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32- Look at this!- At £60. With you, madam, at £60.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34- If we're all done at 60.- £60!
0:38:34 > 0:38:38- Fantastic. Well done, the lighting department.- £60!
0:38:38 > 0:38:40That's brilliant. Plus £25 on that.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43That's not bad, is it? Now, the watch.
0:38:43 > 0:38:47Lot 288 in its fitted case there, as well. Lot 288.
0:38:47 > 0:38:51Who will start me at £20 for it? £20. 20 is bid. Thank you, madam.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54£20 at the very back, then, at £20.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57And two. 25.
0:38:57 > 0:39:0328, 30, 32, 35, 38.
0:39:03 > 0:39:06- Yes!- Thank you anyway. At £38 with you, sir, at £38.- One more!
0:39:06 > 0:39:09If we're all done at 38.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12- GAVEL THUMPS - £38. £2 loss. 38 minus 2.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14That means you're plus £37.
0:39:14 > 0:39:18It's like you almost had a crystal ball there. That's fantastic.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20£37 up.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23- Are you sure all your parishioners aren't there?- No.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26They haven't been having a bit of a whip round?
0:39:26 > 0:39:28Last week's offering!
0:39:28 > 0:39:31Seriously, boys, what are we going to do about this picture?
0:39:31 > 0:39:33It's a toughie, this.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36Do you know what, I think we might be barking up the wrong tree
0:39:36 > 0:39:38if we go for the two dogs.
0:39:38 > 0:39:39But have they got any collars on?
0:39:39 > 0:39:41- No.- No dog collars.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43- No dog collars!- Dog in the manger.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46You've been working this, haven't you, boys?
0:39:46 > 0:39:50Much as we admire Jonathan, we think no. This one is a bit of a dog.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53As they say in the trade, if there's any element of doubt,
0:39:53 > 0:39:54you have to leave it.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57There's an element of doubt here.
0:39:57 > 0:39:59And we're leaving it. Is that right? Here it comes.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04..is this picture here, in the manner of Colin Graham.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06Two setters in a landscape, oil on board.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09It's modern. Lot 292.
0:40:09 > 0:40:14Who will start me at £80 for it, for this decorative picture here?
0:40:14 > 0:40:15At £80.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Setters in a landscape at 80.
0:40:17 > 0:40:19At £80 anywhere? 60, then.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23£60 for the setters, at £60. 50?
0:40:23 > 0:40:25£50, surely, for this picture, here.
0:40:25 > 0:40:27It's an oil on board at £50.
0:40:27 > 0:40:3240, then. £40. 40 is bid.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35- Thank you, sir. At £40.- Phew!
0:40:35 > 0:40:39All we all done at 40? I will sell, make no mistake, at £40.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42- And five. Against you, sir. - Another bidder, here?
0:40:42 > 0:40:44At £45 on the internet, and 50.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46On the internet!
0:40:46 > 0:40:49At £50 at the very back, at £50.
0:40:49 > 0:40:55At 55 against you. At £55 on the internet, then. At 55.
0:40:55 > 0:40:56GAVEL THUMPS
0:40:56 > 0:40:59£55! Gosh.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02- Good decision.- I make that...
0:41:02 > 0:41:07That's £155 down the proverbial, isn't it? Minus 155.
0:41:07 > 0:41:11That's got to be my best yet, I think, on one lot!
0:41:11 > 0:41:16£155. I think you're quite grateful you didn't go with it.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18I think you make the right decision, there.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Definitely divine intervention.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22Definitely was divine.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25Anyway, you've parked your £37 profit.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28You've ring-fenced it, very sensibly.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30And for the moment,
0:41:30 > 0:41:32don't say a word to the Reds.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43Well, today it's a question of going with the bonus buy
0:41:43 > 0:41:45and not going with the bonus buy.
0:41:45 > 0:41:48- Talking, you chaps? Have you been talking at all?- No.
0:41:48 > 0:41:54Very good. It is my duty to reveal today that the runners up,
0:41:54 > 0:41:58pretty substantially, are the Reds.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01- Oh, no!- Whoa! Yeah!
0:42:01 > 0:42:04We're not going to dwell on the spirit barrel.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07It was minus £11, all right? And then the spirit barrel came along
0:42:07 > 0:42:10and it finished up as being minus £130.
0:42:10 > 0:42:11Which is incredible!
0:42:11 > 0:42:16I have to say, in Charles' defence, I rated that thing.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19- I thought it was a pretty good, high-octane object.- Quite right.
0:42:19 > 0:42:23- That just failed to ignite today. So bad luck.- It's still his fault!
0:42:23 > 0:42:24It's still his fault.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29I think we'll leave the bickering to the children, shall we?
0:42:29 > 0:42:32And turn to the victors. It is very respectable, isn't it?
0:42:32 > 0:42:35- You are plus £37.- Fantastic. - By not going with the bonus buy.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39We were very generously not going with the bonus buy.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42But, Jonathan, your mirror made a good price. Which is nice.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45With a profit of £14. And you made a nice profit on the Poole.
0:42:45 > 0:42:50- I did.- Which was great. Nearly made it on the pocketwatch but not quite.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53Which means you're going to wander home with £37.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Fantastic!
0:42:55 > 0:42:59Got 35 there. Got a couple of quid coming out there, look.
0:42:59 > 0:43:00There you go, son.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03I thought you were going to give that to Jonathan for a moment.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05Completely unprompted.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07- But you had a good time, I hope. - We've had a great time.- Fantastic.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10It's lovely to go home with profits and I congratulate you on that.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12Thank you very much for joining us.
0:43:12 > 0:43:16- We had a great day. Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?- Yes!
