0:00:02 > 0:00:05The sun is shining, the shoppers are browsing,
0:00:05 > 0:00:10the antiques are set out, so I think it's time to go bargain hunting!
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Welcome to Corby in Northamptonshire
0:00:40 > 0:00:43and, boy, have we got some treats in store for you today.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Coming up on today's show...
0:00:46 > 0:00:49The Blues are up for an explosive time.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52Guys? Red team!
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Whoosh!
0:00:55 > 0:00:57While the Red team take a more relaxed approach.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00What do you think, boys? Do you think the Blue team are doing this?
0:01:00 > 0:01:02No, I think they're still looking round.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03Running round till the last minute.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05We're all right. We can sit and enjoy ourselves.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09But, when the gavel falls, will they still be feeling confident?
0:01:09 > 0:01:12We're just a bit nervous that we're going to make too much. That's all.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Is that your big problem?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17While the Blue team try to look on the bright side. You're £67 down.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20- It's not disastrous.- What do you mean, "It's not disastrous?!"
0:01:24 > 0:01:28Each of the teams have the luxury of their very own expert to
0:01:28 > 0:01:32help them spend £300 in an hour on three objects,
0:01:32 > 0:01:36which will later be taken to auction where they'll be sold and the team
0:01:36 > 0:01:40that wins is the team that makes the most profit or the least loss.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43So, let's meet today's teams.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Today, for the Reds, we've got pals Mick and Des, and, for the Blues,
0:01:52 > 0:01:56we've got husband and wife, David and Kim, who are also pals.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Now, Des, what do you get up to in your spare time?
0:01:59 > 0:02:02I like a game of snooker, chess...
0:02:02 > 0:02:04And how do you know Mick, where did you meet?
0:02:04 > 0:02:07We actually met at a karaoke bar.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I got up from singing in a competition,
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Mick got up to sing and everyone else left the pub.
0:02:12 > 0:02:13THEY LAUGH
0:02:13 > 0:02:15- And he's your friend?!- Yes.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Now, Mick, are you into bargain hunting?
0:02:17 > 0:02:21Yes, I do like going around looking at the bargains and I'd go to car
0:02:21 > 0:02:24boot sales and I've done a couple myself, actually, car-boot sales.
0:02:24 > 0:02:28- Have you?- Yeah.- And are you into any sports in particular?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Yes, me darts - I love me darts a lot.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- I'm the Northampton champion... - Are you?
0:02:33 > 0:02:34..for last year, yeah,
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- and I practice for six to eight hours a day, if I can.- Gosh!
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Well, let us hope you're going to score a bull's-eye today.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Anyway, very, very good luck. Now, for the Blues.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46- David, you're connected with the music industry.- That's right, Tim.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50- Tell us about that.- Well, I supply equipment for bands on tour,
0:02:50 > 0:02:54I help organise interviews for them, I do a lot of photography of bands.
0:02:54 > 0:02:55This year alone I've been working with
0:02:55 > 0:02:59- Queen, Judas Priest, Tina Turner... - Have you really?
0:02:59 > 0:03:01It's good fun. I enjoy what I do.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Kim, you're helping your husband out with all this business.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08That's right. I work more backstage really with David,
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I do a lot of the research for him, finding out lots of things
0:03:10 > 0:03:13and that's actually how I found the Bargain Hunt application.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Ha-ha! You're a good researcher then?- Oh, yes, I try very hard.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Which is brilliant. Now, the money moment.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Here you go, here's your £300 apiece.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23You know the rules, your experts await and off you go
0:03:23 > 0:03:25and very, very, very good luck.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29So, will the Reds' competitive streak stand them
0:03:29 > 0:03:34in good stead or will the musical Blues perform best under pressure?
0:03:34 > 0:03:37And to help them cope with that pressure,
0:03:37 > 0:03:41their experts are warming up and getting ready for the challenge.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44In the Red corner, doing her final preparation, is Kate Bliss,
0:03:44 > 0:03:48and getting in the groove for the Blues is James Lewis.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51'And they'll have to be on their toes today as they'll be
0:03:51 > 0:03:54'helping not one, but two pairs of Reds and Blues.'
0:03:55 > 0:03:58MUSIC: "Love Today" by Mika
0:03:58 > 0:04:02# Everybody's gonna love today, gonna love today
0:04:02 > 0:04:03# Anyway you want to... #
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Could I have a look at the photograph frame?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Thank you. That's lovely.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Do you know what year it is?
0:04:10 > 0:04:15- It's modern.- Modern.- It's modern. It's made in the last 20 or 30 yes.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18You know, I think that is a really stylish frame.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21We've got this Art Nouveau trailing design around the outside.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23This is planished. It's upside down at the moment,
0:04:23 > 0:04:27so it really needs to stand that way, and then it has a much
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- better look with this sharp corner down on the table top.- Yeah.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32What would be your best price on this, please?
0:04:32 > 0:04:3315.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Do you know, for £15, I think that's worth buying
0:04:36 > 0:04:40and it's worth it, you know, I think that's a real bargain.
0:04:40 > 0:04:41- OK, done.- Super.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Thank you very much indeed.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Well, James is looking very pleased as the Blues get off to
0:04:46 > 0:04:49a raring start after just six minutes,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52but the Reds are still looking for that first buy.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54- What's Nick spotted?- A nice...
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Oh, right, now, a little canteen of cutlery.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59- For cooking and that, innit?- Mm-hm.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Let's have a look at the actual cutlery itself.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05It's silver-plated. Nice, decorative design...
0:05:05 > 0:05:07It's dated 1976.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10Yes, it's quite nice that little presentation inscription, isn't it?
0:05:10 > 0:05:14Presented to MacLean on completion of 40 years' service
0:05:14 > 0:05:16with the Littlewoods Organisation.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19So, it's not antique, but very functional in that you've got
0:05:19 > 0:05:22the three drawers to hold your cutlery.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Is that something that you would buy?
0:05:25 > 0:05:27W-well, I find it very...appealing, yes.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Yeah, it's very it's a very attractive piece,
0:05:29 > 0:05:32especially the way the knives and forks are laid out as well.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- What's your very best? - - The very best...
0:05:35 > 0:05:37- Very, very best? - The very, very best...
0:05:37 > 0:05:42- 85 quid.- 85?- What do you think, guys?- Yeah.- OK, then.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46- I think you have a sale.- OK. - Thank you very much.- OK, all right.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49It's a decisive buy from the Reds,
0:05:49 > 0:05:53but they've blown £85 in the first 11 minutes.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Take it easy, boys!
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Kate, what do you think of this vase? - Let me come and have a look.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00What have you go there?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Gosh, where did you find that? I didn't see that.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Well, it's what known as Satsuma ceramics, which is
0:06:06 > 0:06:09the Oriental type of pottery.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11You see quite a lot of it at auction,
0:06:11 > 0:06:14but its characteristics are this distinctive iron red and,
0:06:14 > 0:06:18obviously, you've got a very Oriental scene here,
0:06:18 > 0:06:21what's known as Chinoiserie decoration.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- It's quite a good size, isn't it?- It is.- For a vase.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29As for date, it says 19th century on the label, I would think,
0:06:29 > 0:06:32personally, it's more sort of 1920s. It looks pretty good, doesn't it?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34It does look pretty good.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39I can see somebody paying £50 to £70-ish on that,
0:06:39 > 0:06:42as a decorative piece. Perhaps even a bit more, if two people like it.
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- Shall I ask the man and see if I can bring him down?- Yeah, I mean, is that
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- something you like?- Yeah, I do like that, yes. Do you, Des?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Yeah, if we can get him to say about £60.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- Perhaps even a bit less. - Yeah, we'll see.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Excuse me, what's the best offer you can give us on this vase?
0:06:56 > 0:07:00- 65, my friend.- 65?- 65? - What if I try to get less than 60?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- What do you think, Kate? - I'd keep going, Mick. You can ask.
0:07:04 > 0:07:08- Can you come down a bit more at all? - Could you do 60?- 60?
0:07:08 > 0:07:09ALL: Go on!
0:07:09 > 0:07:13- 60 quid then.- 60, yeah?- 60?- Yes. - What do you think, guys?- Yeah.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Well done, Reds.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19Two items bought, but watch out for the Blue team's dirty tactics.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Guys...
0:07:21 > 0:07:22Red team.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Whoosh!
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- THEY LAUGH - Steady on, Lewis!
0:07:26 > 0:07:28The auction room's where you'll get a chance
0:07:28 > 0:07:30- to blow the competition away. - It's...
0:07:30 > 0:07:33That is Glyn Colledge, it's Denby,
0:07:33 > 0:07:35it was made 12 miles from where I live.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- Right.- And the Denby factory is a very, very collected factory.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43A lot of these pieces are called Glyn Colledge because
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- he was head of art and design at Denby at the period.- Is that
0:07:46 > 0:07:49- actually by him?- This is because that little scrawl there
0:07:49 > 0:07:54is actually a green signature, Glyn, and £48 is not expensive for it.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57What would be your best price on the Glyn Colledge? It's got £48 on it.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01It says..."I A."
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- I'll do it for 30 for you.- 30! Now, that's not expensive.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09- That seems like a good price. - Do you like it?
0:08:09 > 0:08:13- I actually do, I really like it. - OK, we know it's here.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Hopefully, if we come back, it'll still be here. So, let's move on.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18The Blues can't make a decision,
0:08:18 > 0:08:21but the Red team might have spotted their final item.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23What do you think about that?
0:08:24 > 0:08:26- It looks quite old that. - Can you see, Des?- Oh, yeah.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30It's in lovely condition. Lovely leather bound and then, inside...
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Very often you'll get brass or even gilt clasps on these.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37This is just an ordinary metal one, but look at the condition of this.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41- That is very good condition. - It's lovely!- Yeah. It's nice, yeah.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- What do you think, boys? - That's appealing, yes.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Something that you could use today and slot your own photographs in.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52- And what's the price tag on this? - Let's have a look. In the front...
0:08:52 > 0:08:56- we've got 65 on that.- Fancy seeing what we can knock him down to?
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Yeah, let's see...- Is it something that you like?- Yeah.- It is, it is.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- It's something we do like. - For its age, it's very good.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Do you want to go and take it, Des? - OK.- See what you can do.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09While Des is out of the picture haggling for the photo album,
0:09:09 > 0:09:13the Blues are still struggling to find their second item.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15How much is that?
0:09:15 > 0:09:1695 today.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18- 95.- Wow, that seems expensive.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Yeah.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Well, they've got £275 left and time is ticking,
0:09:22 > 0:09:24so the Blues return to the Denby plate.
0:09:26 > 0:09:27Now...
0:09:27 > 0:09:29This is the one that you guys liked earlier.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Well, I actually really like the colour. I know you said you didn't,
0:09:33 > 0:09:37- but I do, yes. - Well, he's come down to £30 before.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Auctioneers go up in fives at that level, you know, 32, 35,
0:09:40 > 0:09:4338, you know, so, if we're going to get over the £30 mark, which
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I hope we will to make a profit, we need to get it slightly under.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50- He's already been kind to us. What do you think?- Perfect.- Brilliant.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56At last, James seals the deal on the second item for £29,
0:09:56 > 0:09:59but he's not the only one driving a hard bargain.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- He's agreed to accept 50. - I think 50's fair.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06I'd prefer it at 40, but if that's the price, it's got to be 50,
0:10:06 > 0:10:07that's fine.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09I think we stand a chance of making a little bit,
0:10:09 > 0:10:13because it's just such a nice clean example. What do you think, Mick?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I do, I think it's nice and tidy for the age of it as well.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Let's pay the money. - There you are then.- Well done!
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Well done indeed, you clever Reds.
0:10:21 > 0:10:26Some bold bargaining means you've all done after just 42 minutes.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29However, the more cautious Blues have spent less than £50,
0:10:29 > 0:10:32but James could blow the budget here!
0:10:32 > 0:10:34- For stationery, isn't it? - For stationery...- It's lovely.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- How old is it? - The thing is, almost everybody has
0:10:37 > 0:10:39- a use for stationery boxes.- Yes.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41It's Coromandel wood, which is a little bit like rosewood,
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- but it has this striation of pale and dark.- Yeah.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48And this was really used 1850 to 1900.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50So, that second half of the 19th century.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53James, there's two spaces for ink bottles, but we've only got one.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Yeah, I mean, the thing is, these things do get lost
0:10:55 > 0:10:58and they do get replaced, but the advantage is, you could take that
0:10:58 > 0:11:01one out and replace it with a pair of replacements that would look
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- the same, so that would be absolutely fine.- OK.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06I mean, if it was 150, we'd be in striking distance.
0:11:06 > 0:11:07- It cost more than that.- Did it?
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- I'll tell you what it can be, the very best...- Yeah?
0:11:10 > 0:11:12..180. You won't see another one.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Is that a fair price?- I think that is a fair price,
0:11:16 > 0:11:20but I think 180 plus 15 percent buyer's premium is going to take
0:11:20 > 0:11:25it over the £200 mark and I think that wipes out any chance of profit.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27- OK.- OK.- Thank you very much. Good luck with it.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29- I'm sure you'll sell it. - If you change your mind,
0:11:29 > 0:11:31we're going to be walking down there.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36Unlikely, David! But £180 is a large chunk of your money. Oh, ho!
0:11:36 > 0:11:38The pressure! Now, where are the Reds?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41What do you think, boys? Do you think the Blue team are doing this?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43No, I think they're still looking round.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45- Running round till the last minute. - We're all right.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47We can sit and enjoy ourselves.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50The Blues will have to do the best they can with the time left,
0:11:50 > 0:11:53while the Reds do the best with theirs.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56Well, I can just feel a snooze coming on. What do you think?
0:11:56 > 0:11:58- Sounds good to me.- Yeah.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00While the Red team take a break,
0:12:00 > 0:12:04the Blues are still deciding about that writing box.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- I love it, I really like it. It's got that damage there.- I love it.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- I mean, I really do like the pattern of the wood.- I do as well.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12- I've never seen one like it.- Would you have it in your home?
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- I would, yes.- Would you have it in your home?- Definitely, yes.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18I'd have it in mine. So, I reckon on that basis
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- we should have a good chance. - I think so.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25James persevered and secured the writing box for £169 with
0:12:25 > 0:12:29just minutes to spare. So, both teams have their three items.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Let's remind ourselves what they bought.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Des and Mick took an immediate shine to
0:12:36 > 0:12:40the plated canteen of cutlery priced at £85.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43And it wasn't long before they found the vase
0:12:43 > 0:12:44they were searching for.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Finally, the boys wasted no time in snapping up
0:12:48 > 0:12:51the Victorian photo album for £50.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I mean, what is your favourite bit, Des?
0:12:56 > 0:13:00- Between two, I would go for the vase. - The vase? What about you, Mick?
0:13:00 > 0:13:01I reckon the vase as well.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit, Des?
0:13:03 > 0:13:07- Again, between two, but I will go for the photo album.- Yes, what about you?
0:13:07 > 0:13:10- I'll go for the photo album as well. - The photo album too. Very good.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Well, you managed to spend £195, which is great.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15£105, please, to Kate Bliss.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- There you go, Kate. - Lovely, thank you.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20You're excited about trotting off with that, aren't you?
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- So, I get the say on this one? - You do.- Thank you very much.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24And very good luck, Kate.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Let us remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Kim and David got off to a flying start with
0:13:28 > 0:13:31the pretty Art Nouveau style photo frame.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35But indecision hampered their progress
0:13:35 > 0:13:38and it took a while for the Blues to settle on the Denby plate.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41And, with time running out,
0:13:41 > 0:13:45the Blues bought the Victorian writing box for £169.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Let's hope that pays off at auction.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53So, David and Kim, you are relaxed to the very last moment.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Congratulations. Now, David, which is your favourite item?
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- I like the Coromandel wood stationery box.- And what about you, Kim?
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Um, I think the Denby plate for me.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04OK, and which piece is going to bring the biggest profit, David?
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- I think the plate, actually. - I agree.- Well, isn't that lovely?
0:14:07 > 0:14:12A little bit of marital harmony. You spent £213, which is great.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16£87 of leftover lolly to go to James Lewis.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19James, £87, that's a reasonable chance for you to go
0:14:19 > 0:14:21and perhaps buy a sheep or something.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23- There's plenty of those! - THEY LAUGH
0:14:34 > 0:14:37It's great to be at Gilding's Saleroom in Market Harborough
0:14:37 > 0:14:40with the man himself, John Gilding. Good morning, John.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Good morning, Tim.- You're ready to crack on with this, aren't you?
0:14:43 > 0:14:44- Absolutely.- So, first up for the Reds,
0:14:44 > 0:14:47for our Mick and Des is their canteen of cutlery.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49I mean, it's got a raft of cutlery in it,
0:14:49 > 0:14:51but it's not 100 percent complete, is it?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53No, we've had to put it as a part canteen, because
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- there are pieces missing. - What do you think it's worth, John?
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Well, we've got a pre-sale estimate of 80 to 120.
0:14:58 > 0:15:03They will be very pleased. £85 is all that they paid.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Now, the Satsuma vase on the other hand,
0:15:05 > 0:15:08is a most boring type of Oriental ceramics, isn't it?
0:15:08 > 0:15:12And only one of which would definitely have been a pair.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15One of a pair, but out of only 86 million imported
0:15:15 > 0:15:18into the country around about 1910.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19We could only manage to find one.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- Yeah, we could only manage to find one.- Oh, dear.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Having completely dissed it,
0:15:23 > 0:15:25it'll probably make a fortune in the auction,
0:15:25 > 0:15:28but my estimate on this would be £10 to £20. What's yours, John?
0:15:28 > 0:15:29We've been somewhat more generous.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32We thought we might just get £25 to £40.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35Well, the guys, they paid £60 for it, all right?
0:15:35 > 0:15:39And, lastly, is the photograph album rather cleverly found by Kate Bliss.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Do you think this is a good thing, John?
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Well, it's very neat and tidy
0:15:43 > 0:15:45and there's one or two very good photographs in it.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Which photographs do you rate here, John?
0:15:47 > 0:15:51Well, the two showing, they were by Beroud of Liverpool.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54He was a well-known children's photographer
0:15:54 > 0:15:55of the late 19th century,
0:15:55 > 0:15:59- so they do help to make the album... - They lift it a bit, yes.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Anyway, estimate wise, what do you think, John?
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Well, we've got 40 to 60 on that, of course,
0:16:03 > 0:16:06and we're quite happy to think that we should be able to crack that.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Well, £50 Kate paid.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11Right, so we've got lots of encouragement there, John.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13The Satsuma might drag them down.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15If it does, they're going to need their bonus buy,
0:16:15 > 0:16:18so let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21There we go. Now, it's a little...boat.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24In fact, it's a rather large ship, the Queen Mary.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28It's a Dinky model, marked underneath for Dinky.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30It's obviously been played with a little bit,
0:16:30 > 0:16:34but condition, as Dinkys go, is not too bad.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36How much have you paid for this, then?
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Well, I paid £18, which, I have to say to be honest with you,
0:16:39 > 0:16:43I think is a fair price. There might be a smidgeon of profit in it.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44We'll have to wait and see.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47Well, you have a little ponder, but for the audience at home,
0:16:47 > 0:16:51let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Kate's little Dinky.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54- This is an early model from the Dinky collection.- Mm-hm.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58In good condition and in a box, it would obviously be a highly
0:16:58 > 0:17:02- collectible piece, but this has been extremely well played with.- Yes.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04It's a bonus buy, John, so be as generous
0:17:04 > 0:17:05as you possibly can, please.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Well, I think we're being more than generous by saying that
0:17:08 > 0:17:11- we thought it might make between £10 and £20.- £10 to £20?
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Well, this is going to sail away then
0:17:14 > 0:17:16to a massive loss cos Kate paid £18. What potentially...?
0:17:16 > 0:17:19- I mean, you might get £20 for it, mightn't you?- Well, I might.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Yes, yes... Beyond that, I'd be amazed.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Well, stand by for a bit of a bloodbath on that then.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Now, that's it for the Reds. Now, for the Blues.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31David and Kim, their first item is the silver photo frame,
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- which you quite like, don't you? - Yes, yes. They sell very well.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38- There's a good market for them.- How much, John, do you think?- 50 to 70.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42- Gosh, pounds we're talking here, cos they paid £15, actually.- £15?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Well, I'd have thought that was a very good buy.
0:17:45 > 0:17:46Well, isn't that interesting.
0:17:46 > 0:17:51Next, is the Denby circular bowl decorated by Glyn Colledge.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Now, you see quite a lot of Denbyware here, I guess, do you?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55We do. Obviously, it's just up the road.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58But it's never really made it yet, I don't feel.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01It's still hanging there, waiting to take off.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- We thought about £20 to £30.- Right, £29 paid, so not much of a chance.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Well, that wasn't bad then, really, was it?
0:18:07 > 0:18:08Well, I don't know, I mean,
0:18:08 > 0:18:11depending on whether you're trying to make a profit or not!
0:18:11 > 0:18:12I would have thought that was
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- well bought in the field, actually. - What about the third item,
0:18:15 > 0:18:18the Coromandel stationery cabinet?
0:18:18 > 0:18:20This is a good piece, but, unfortunately, the main problem
0:18:20 > 0:18:24being that it's been broken into and the lock is now not working.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26Not working? So, not working lock,
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- and we've got this rather bad bit of bruising here.- We have, yes.
0:18:29 > 0:18:34But Coromandel wood and the box itself, it is really good quality.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36- Yes.- So, I've got a very good estimate, I think,
0:18:36 > 0:18:40- for you of 100 to 150. - 100 to 150?- Yes.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44- Not optimistic enough, sir, I'm afraid.- Oh.- £169 paid.- Oh, dear.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48- Which is going for it, isn't it? - Hmm. It is, I'm afraid.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51Well, as you say, John, let us remain optimistic.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55It's one of your most endearing qualities.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57So, we might lose a bit on the Coromandel,
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- might make a bit on the photo frame...- Yes.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01..might break even on the bowl.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04So, overall, they could well need their bonus buy.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Let's go and have a look at it.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09If I go very gently with that...
0:19:09 > 0:19:11- Ah!- Right.- ..we reveal...- Ah!
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Are these the same glasses that we looked at?- They are.- Right.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17- But, when we went round, there were about 30 of them.- Yes.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- I asked, "Are there 30 there?" And he went, "There are 42!"- Wow.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25- She found another load under the counter.- Yeah. How much did you pay?
0:19:25 > 0:19:29- £69 and a full 50p. - That's a really good price.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31In terms of profit forecast?
0:19:31 > 0:19:36- Well, I would certainly hope they'll make over £100.- Right.- Wow.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Well, that's pretty good, isn't it?
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Now, just hold that thought, cos you don't choose right now,
0:19:40 > 0:19:43you choose after the sale of the first three items,
0:19:43 > 0:19:44but, for the viewers at home,
0:19:44 > 0:19:47let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the suite of glass.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49- It is a really nice delicate suite...- Yes.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53..and I think, potentially, it has the makings of quite a bit of money.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56- Really?- Yeah.- Well, this is James Lewis' bonus buy.
0:19:56 > 0:20:02He paid £69.50 for some 42 pieces of this glass, which is
0:20:02 > 0:20:06- not much, is it?- That's an excellent buy, excellent buy.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08My pre-sale estimate is 80 to 120,
0:20:08 > 0:20:11which I thought was very conservative.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- Oh, right.- I'm expecting this to go well over the £100 mark.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- I'm watching your lips there, John. - Yeah.- Well over the £100 mark?
0:20:17 > 0:20:19- It did indeed. - And if it does particularly well,
0:20:19 > 0:20:22do you think there might be a drop of...?
0:20:22 > 0:20:24- Well, we'll have the champagne... - On ice?- ..on ice.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26- How's that?- What could be nicer? Thanks, John.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36So, boys, here we are on the edge of the auction. Are you OK with this?
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- Yes, looking forward to it. - You too?- Yeah.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41- You're not nervous at all, are you? - No, no.- Not at all.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43We're just a bit nervous that we're
0:20:43 > 0:20:46going to make a bit too much, that's all.
0:20:46 > 0:20:50Is that your big problem, is it? That is overconfident, isn't it?
0:20:50 > 0:20:53- The little chest containing the cutlery, your canteen...- Yes.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- It's looking good, Des. You paid £85 for that.- Yes, we did.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- The auctioneer's estimate is 80 to 120.- It'll make a profit.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03- Looks like a profit, doesn't it? - Yes.- Here it comes.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Lot 25 is a part 12-place setting of plated cutlery, please.
0:21:07 > 0:21:13What will you say for lot 25? £100 straight in. At 100, will you say...?
0:21:13 > 0:21:18No reserve. 40, I bid £40, I bid 5, £45. At £45, I bid 45.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- Oh, dear.- Not looking good. - Come on.- Come on.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24At £50, I bid 50. Do I see a bid in the room, quickly?
0:21:24 > 0:21:28At £50, and I have to sell, please, there's no reserve.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30- At £50...- Oh, dear.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35All done. Quite sure then? £50 and sold at 50.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39- Oh, no!- £50, sold on the internet, probably to a bloke in China.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43- Anyway... - Ouch!- ..that is, sadly, minus £35.
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Next, is the Satsuma vase.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48- Stand by.- Another good piece there. £25 to start the bidding.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50£10, a bid at 10. 10, 12,
0:21:50 > 0:21:5214, at 14, 16,
0:21:52 > 0:21:54at 16, a bid at 16.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58- In the room now, at £16 I'm bid.- £16!
0:21:58 > 0:22:02£18 with the hat. At 18, 20, £20, I'm bid 22 with the red shirt,
0:22:02 > 0:22:05at 22. You're both out at the back row, please, at £22 seated.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09It is yours at 22...£24 I am bid, at 24, 24...
0:22:09 > 0:22:12At 26, with the red shirt at 26.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Are we all done? Sold in the middle at 26.
0:22:15 > 0:22:20£26 is four shy of 30. You are minus £34 on that.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22Not good, chaps.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26Now, your album, Kate, it's all down to your album.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28This lovely leather-covered album with photographs
0:22:28 > 0:22:30and what have you in it.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32This is a lovely album, please, and some very good photographs,
0:22:32 > 0:22:34and £50 for it to start the bidding, if you will.
0:22:34 > 0:22:38£30, I am bid £30, I am bid 30, it's on commission.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40You're all out in the room at £30.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43- At £30, I am bid 35 on the left. - Oh, no!
0:22:43 > 0:22:46The commissions are lost. It's £35 on the net.
0:22:46 > 0:22:47Come on, come on.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50I bid 35. I'm not understanding you here...
0:22:50 > 0:22:52- That is cheap, isn't it? - Yeah, that's just...
0:22:52 > 0:22:55That's £35. I shall sell. I have no option.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57All done at £35. To the net.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01- Oh, dear. £35.- Boys! My boys!
0:23:01 > 0:23:05So, I'm sad to say, chaps, that is minus £84.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09This is not how it was predicted, I have to say.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11How are you feeling now?
0:23:11 > 0:23:14It looks like we'll have to go with this bonus buy.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17- In for a penny, in for a pound. - That's right.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20- So, you're going to go with the Queen Mary?- Yes.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22The die-cast Cunard White Star Queen Mary...
0:23:22 > 0:23:24Who's in there for £20 for that?
0:23:24 > 0:23:26£2 for it then. At 2...
0:23:26 > 0:23:29- No!- A bid at 4, 4, £4.
0:23:29 > 0:23:34£6, a bid at 6, at 8, at 10, £10.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38- Come on! Up.- £12. 12 on the net. £12.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42- One for luck.- You're dressed for it. 12, 12, 12, at £12.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Do I see £14 anywhere?
0:23:43 > 0:23:47It's on the net and I'm selling in the room at 14.
0:23:47 > 0:23:5116, 16, 16, 18, 18.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53And it's time. Sold.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Well done, Kate. Wiped your face, darling. £18.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58No profit, no loss, no shame.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04- Minus £84 overall, chaps.- Oh, no! - It's bad luck, isn't it?
0:24:04 > 0:24:05But it could be a winning score
0:24:05 > 0:24:07and don't tell the Blues a thing, all right?
0:24:07 > 0:24:11- Mum's the word.- All right. - Well done. Good sports.- All right.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23Now, David and Kim, do you know how the Reds got on at all?
0:24:23 > 0:24:27- Not at all.- You don't? They kept quiet, which is the way we like it!
0:24:27 > 0:24:29So, how are you feeling, you two? OK?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Confident. Quietly confident. - Quietly confident?
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Is it warm enough for you? That's the first thing.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36- It's very warm, isn't it? - It's warm enough, absolutely.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- How are you feeling, James? - Absolutely fine.- Are you? Good.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42That's perfect, because the first item which David found,
0:24:42 > 0:24:47your £15 photo frame has been estimated by the auctioneer,
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- I'm glad to say, at £50 to £70. - Really?!- That's fantastic!
0:24:50 > 0:24:54So, £15 bought for that is a phenomenally good buy to find
0:24:54 > 0:24:58in the fair, so I congratulate you, David, on that and here it comes.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02It's that lovely photograph frame, please, and stamped 925.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06- What will you say about that? £50 straight in. £50.- Wow.
0:25:06 > 0:25:14There's no reserve. I'm bid 30. On commission at 30. At 35... 32? OK.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18- 35 in the room. What about 40? 40. - It's looking good.
0:25:18 > 0:25:23At £40, I'm bid 40. Do I see 45 anywhere?
0:25:23 > 0:25:25At 40, you're out on the net, please.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27At 40, I'm bid 40, it's on commission, all done.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30Finished and away then at £40 and sold.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33£40. Well, that's not too bad. You make a profit of £25 on that.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35That's very good.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37£25. Excellent.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Now, Glyn Colledge's bowl.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43A bowl by Glyn Colledge. What will you say for that?
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Again, no reserves here, please. Open the bidding any way you will. £30?
0:25:46 > 0:25:49£10, then. Thank you at 10. 10, 10, £10.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51At 12, 12, 12,
0:25:51 > 0:25:5314, a bid at 14, at £14.
0:25:53 > 0:25:5516, a bid at 16,
0:25:55 > 0:25:59- at 16...- Come on, please. Come on. More. Come on.
0:25:59 > 0:26:00A bid right at the back.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04- It is yours at £16, I am bid. - Oh, no!- I have no reserve.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07It must be sold. £16.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11- £16. You are minus £13 now.- Oh, no.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15A very nice correspondence stand and this is the Coromandel wood.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18And bids start with me at, please, £65.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21On commission at 65 and a very low start it is too at 70,
0:26:21 > 0:26:2375, 75, 75.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28- Out on the net. At £80, I'm bid £85 on the net.- Come on, please!
0:26:28 > 0:26:32- At 85, at 85, 90, £90, I'm bid, 90... - Come on, keep going, keep going.
0:26:32 > 0:26:37At £90, I'm bid. The commission's out. You're out in the room at 90.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39- Quite sure?- Oh, dear.- Oh, no!
0:26:39 > 0:26:41At £90.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- No!- £90, that is minus £79,
0:26:45 > 0:26:50which means, overall, you are minus £67.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52- Oh, no!- It's not disastrous.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54What do you mean, "It's not disastrous"?!
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Minus £67! So, what are you going to do?
0:26:56 > 0:26:59- Are you going to go with the drinking glasses?- Definitely.- Yeah.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01We're going with James' glass and here it comes.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05Lot 53, this lovely suite of drinking glasses, please.
0:27:05 > 0:27:10A lot of interest here. £90 opens the bidding. £90. I'm bid 90.
0:27:10 > 0:27:15- It's on commission at £90.- £90! James!- 95 in the room at 95, 100.
0:27:15 > 0:27:20£100 I am bid. And 10. 120. At 120 and you're out.
0:27:20 > 0:27:24- Firing away, please, at £120 on commission.- Look at that.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28All done? You're quite sure then at 120.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31£50 and 50p. Well, that's a very good profit, isn't it?
0:27:31 > 0:27:32Thank goodness for that.
0:27:32 > 0:27:35So, overall then, you are...
0:27:35 > 0:27:38minus £16.50. Yes?
0:27:38 > 0:27:41Yes, you are minus £16.50. Check, check, check.
0:27:41 > 0:27:43You brought us back to a reasonable...
0:27:43 > 0:27:46Nothing's reasonable when it has a minus in front of it!
0:27:46 > 0:27:50So, despite James' best efforts, the Blues make a loss of £16.50,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52but they're still the winners because, remember,
0:27:52 > 0:27:56the Reds made a whopping loss of £84. Huh!
0:27:56 > 0:27:58'Coming up, two more teams are ready to go bargain hunting,
0:27:58 > 0:28:01'but, first, I'm off to somewhere rather grand.'
0:28:02 > 0:28:04MUSIC: "Untouched" by The Veronicas
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Burghley House in Stamford was built by William Cecil
0:28:20 > 0:28:25in the 16th century, and whilst it's full of the most gorgeous rooms,
0:28:25 > 0:28:28the room I'm particularly interested in is the billiard room.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29Pot black!
0:28:35 > 0:28:40The early inventories of the house record this room as a dining room,
0:28:40 > 0:28:43but by the early part of the 19th century,
0:28:43 > 0:28:47it's described as a billiard room, which is what it is today,
0:28:47 > 0:28:52not surprisingly, dominated by an enormous full-sized billiard table.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54And what makes this table interesting for me,
0:28:54 > 0:28:57is the fact that it's got this identification plaque.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59If you look, it's a signature plaque.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02The maker was a man called John Thurston
0:29:02 > 0:29:07and he first started specialising in billiard tables in 1814.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11He invented and introduced the slate bedded table, which is
0:29:11 > 0:29:12what this one's got.
0:29:12 > 0:29:17This is made of a series of large panels of slate,
0:29:17 > 0:29:22which give ultimate stability to the playing surface.
0:29:22 > 0:29:26And in 1835, he invented rubber cushions.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29And the other interesting thing about this table is
0:29:29 > 0:29:31the colour of the timber.
0:29:31 > 0:29:35It's oak, but it's got this very strange black streaked effect,
0:29:35 > 0:29:38which is not typical for oak,
0:29:38 > 0:29:43and it's actually striped within the core of the timber itself.
0:29:43 > 0:29:44Which is strange.
0:29:44 > 0:29:49But that's explained by the top plaque, that says that this table
0:29:49 > 0:29:55is made from oak from the Royal George raised at Spithead in 1841.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59Now, the Royal George was the largest ship in the
0:29:59 > 0:30:02British fleet ever to have been made out of oak.
0:30:02 > 0:30:06Over three and a half thousand tons of oak were employed in its
0:30:06 > 0:30:14construction and it sank in Spithead in 1782 with enormous loss of life.
0:30:14 > 0:30:19By 1841, they'd managed to raise the remnants of the wreck,
0:30:19 > 0:30:24and the oak was employed to make a number of items, including
0:30:24 > 0:30:28this billiard table, which makes it just that bit more historic.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30Meanwhile, back at the Corby Antiques Fair,
0:30:30 > 0:30:35will we see historic profits from our next two teams?
0:30:35 > 0:30:38Time to see our next pair of Reds and Blues.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43For the Reds today, we've got good friends Caroline and Renata,
0:30:43 > 0:30:47and for the Blues, we've got married couple Joe and Betsy.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49Welcome to Bargain Hunt, teams.
0:30:49 > 0:30:54- Caroline, how do you two know each other?- We work together.- Oh, right.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58- And where do you work?- We work in a lab.- And what do you do in the lab?
0:30:58 > 0:31:00- We test wine.- Gosh! So, how does it work then?
0:31:00 > 0:31:02You're tasting it or what are you doing?
0:31:02 > 0:31:05We get samples from tankers from all over the world
0:31:05 > 0:31:08and we take the samples and we have to do chemical
0:31:08 > 0:31:12and microbiological analysis on it, but, yes, we do taste them.
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Do you collect anything?
0:31:14 > 0:31:18- Um, I collect Blue Peter annuals. - Do you?
0:31:18 > 0:31:19Somebody's got to! Yes.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22I used to collect them when I was little, from the bring and buy sales.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25- Yeah, and now you've gone on.- Yes! - Brilliant, isn't it?
0:31:25 > 0:31:29- Do you get out much?- No! - OK, I understand.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33Now, Renata, you also work in the lab together, yes?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36I do chemical analysis testing
0:31:36 > 0:31:38and I also work downstairs in the microbiology lab.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41- What other interests have you got, Renata?- Oh, all sorts.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43I collect Myth and Magic figurines.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48They're small pewter figures with wizards and dragons with crystals,
0:31:48 > 0:31:52and I've got them from the miniature ones, which are about this big, to
0:31:52 > 0:31:55the sort of very large scale, and I've got about 100 pieces.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59- And are they beautifully detailed and nicely made?- Yes, I believe so.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03- Yes, interesting, isn't it?- Yes. - Well, you're obviously going to be
0:32:03 > 0:32:05pretty sharp contestants today, I have to tell you,
0:32:05 > 0:32:08and these Blues are going to be quaking in their boots.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10- Are you quaking in your boots, you Blues?- We are!
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Now, Joe, how did you two meet?
0:32:12 > 0:32:15Um, we met in an internet chatroom.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18- Did you?- Yeah, and we met up three days later and the rest is history.
0:32:18 > 0:32:23- What do you collect, Joe? - I collect owls.- Oh, yeah?- Yes.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26- What, live ones in a cage?- No, not live ones, just like ornamental ones.
0:32:26 > 0:32:30- Ornamental owls?- Yes.- Yes. Betsy, you're a bit of a collector too.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34- Yes, just a bit. Steiff Bears and Kaiser.- Aye.
0:32:34 > 0:32:35What's your favourite piece?
0:32:35 > 0:32:40- Oh, it'd have to be by Kaiser, "Three Naked Ladies."- Oh, yeah?
0:32:40 > 0:32:44- My sister found them at the local recycle centre.- Yes?
0:32:44 > 0:32:47She bought them for a pound each and they're worth about £100 each.
0:32:47 > 0:32:50- Right.- The people there didn't know what they were selling.- No, quite.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53Well, that is a lucky do, isn't it? That's naked ladies.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56And what sort of hobbies have you got?
0:32:56 > 0:32:59Well, knitting and my collections and I like...well,
0:32:59 > 0:33:03- I've been up on a Hercules plane. - Have you?- And a glider.
0:33:03 > 0:33:06What were you doing in a Hercules plane, if you don't mind my asking?
0:33:06 > 0:33:08Well, um, I was working for the RAF
0:33:08 > 0:33:12and the pilot came in and asked me if I wanted to go for a jolly
0:33:12 > 0:33:16- and I said, "Yeah, OK!" So, we went up in the Hercules plane.- Did you?
0:33:16 > 0:33:19- For a few hours.- Just for a spin around?- Just for a spin around.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22- And was it good fun? - It was fantastic, yes.- Yes.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Almost as fantastic as it's going to be for you today
0:33:25 > 0:33:29on Bargain Hunt, cos this is the money moment.
0:33:29 > 0:33:30Here is your £300.
0:33:30 > 0:33:35- Thanks very much.- You know the rules, your experts await and off you go.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37And very, very, very good luck.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40MUSIC: "The Girls" by Calvin Harris
0:33:40 > 0:33:43# I get all the girls, I get all the girls... #
0:33:43 > 0:33:44What do you think to this?
0:33:44 > 0:33:46# I get all the girls... #
0:33:46 > 0:33:49Right, see, cos it's got the additional box...
0:33:49 > 0:33:50Poor little thing!
0:33:50 > 0:33:51Is it alive?
0:33:51 > 0:33:54It was once, poor little chap.
0:33:54 > 0:33:55Aww!
0:33:58 > 0:34:00A pair of Doulton candlesticks.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02What do you think to candlesticks?
0:34:02 > 0:34:05- Very pretty.- They're useful, you know, everybody uses candlesticks.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08They're a good maker - they're Doulton.
0:34:08 > 0:34:11The condition is good, no chips, no cracks. Um...
0:34:13 > 0:34:16The only thing that isn't quite so good, yet, is the price!
0:34:16 > 0:34:18THEY LAUGH
0:34:18 > 0:34:21It never is, is it?!
0:34:21 > 0:34:24- Can we work on it? - Let me get my book and I'll...
0:34:24 > 0:34:26Uh. 1690.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- OK, £65 is the ticket price. - Yeah.- Mm-hm.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33The thing about Doulton is that everybody knows it,
0:34:33 > 0:34:38so, you know, it's never on a stall for nothing, you know,
0:34:38 > 0:34:41it's not that easy, but it's known as silicone ware,
0:34:41 > 0:34:46and this is the effect of these white, blue and green sections
0:34:46 > 0:34:48that are moulded individually
0:34:48 > 0:34:50and then stuck onto the outside on this matted ground.
0:34:50 > 0:34:54- So?- I can do 50 on them. - Oh, 50.- That is my...
0:34:55 > 0:34:57What do you think?
0:34:57 > 0:34:59I think they can make a profit to be quite honest.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Is 40 any good?
0:35:01 > 0:35:03- 48, that's it.- Oh!
0:35:03 > 0:35:0545?
0:35:05 > 0:35:08- Yeah.- Yeah? - Oh, well, you've said it!
0:35:09 > 0:35:12- Deal! Shake the lady's hand. - Thank you very much.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16- Thank you very much.- Well done, girls. Well done. Well...
0:35:16 > 0:35:18a fabulous pair of candlesticks.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21- Lot one!- Yeah, excellent. - Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:35:21 > 0:35:25Well done, girls. That's the first item and only five minutes gone.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Let's see how the other girls are doing.
0:35:31 > 0:35:35What about plates? Is it a bit too modern, maybe?
0:35:35 > 0:35:38That... Well, it says Clarice Cliff on there. Yes, it is.
0:35:38 > 0:35:42- Oh, it says it there.- Clarice Cliff Wilkinson, yes.- Who's? I don't know.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44- Well, Clarice Cliff is just one name I do know.- Is it?
0:35:44 > 0:35:46It's a name that comes up quite a bit.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48It's quite an unusual pattern that, actually.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51- It's not those bright colours like you normally get, is it?- No.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53It's got Wilkinson's on the back, which is
0:35:53 > 0:35:54the factory which she worked for.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57But this sort of, um, browny grey,
0:35:57 > 0:36:00almost sort of smoky colour border is a little bit unusual.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Perhaps not quite desirable.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06Difficult to know without looking it up, but I'm guessing it might
0:36:06 > 0:36:08not be quite as desirable as the Bizarre ware.
0:36:08 > 0:36:09But it's funny that it appealed to you,
0:36:09 > 0:36:12so there's a good chance that it might appeal to somebody else.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- What do you think of the price? - Well, we've got 65 on it.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17Shall we see what the lady says? Excuse me, madam. Hi.
0:36:17 > 0:36:20How much could you do for us on that? You've got 65 on it.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23- The very best is 60. - Is 60?- It is.- OK, so, £60.
0:36:23 > 0:36:24What do you think, girls?
0:36:26 > 0:36:29- I like it.- I like it. Shall we? - Yeah.- Well, it's your programme.
0:36:29 > 0:36:35- Right, well do it.- I think we'll take it.- Yeah, thank you.- Great!
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Nothing wrong with a bit of Clarice Cliff, you know?
0:36:38 > 0:36:39- Let's go into the sun.- OK.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44Well, it seems everyone's having a jolly old time today.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46Sorry. It doesn't suit you.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52That's "Shelley's Cottage." It's an original watercolour.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55It's a much, much later frame.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57Uh, but...it has got a look about it, hasn't it?
0:36:57 > 0:37:01It's not by anybody important, but...you know, I think...
0:37:01 > 0:37:04I think that's a good-looking watercolour.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06What would be your best price on that one?
0:37:06 > 0:37:08- What's on it?- 35.
0:37:08 > 0:37:10I'll do it at 30.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12Will you do it for 25?
0:37:12 > 0:37:1328.
0:37:13 > 0:37:18- 26 and we have a deal.- Go on, then. - Fantastic!- Marvellous!
0:37:18 > 0:37:20I just took over there without asking you,
0:37:20 > 0:37:23- but are you happy with that?- Yeah, definitely.- I think that's good.
0:37:23 > 0:37:26I think, £26, we've got a decent little watercolour.
0:37:26 > 0:37:27- I think there's a profit there. - Yeah.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31Nice one, James, but, come on, give the girls a chance!
0:37:31 > 0:37:32We're halfway through the hour
0:37:32 > 0:37:34and something's caught the eye of the Reds.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39- What's that, a tea set? - How much is that?
0:37:39 > 0:37:40I've got 65 on it, yeah, but...
0:37:40 > 0:37:43- What do you think, girls? - I really like that. It's cute.
0:37:43 > 0:37:49And it's all complete. There's, um, just on this one here, there's...
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- Just a little bit of discolouring, is it?- No, there is...
0:37:52 > 0:37:53Oh, I see. It's been repaired.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55If you were to turn the lid up,
0:37:55 > 0:37:59you've got, like...I think it's 41 shillings or something.
0:37:59 > 0:38:00It's got the original price on it?
0:38:00 > 0:38:04Yeah, and it's got the packaging there as well.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06I'll do 60, but...
0:38:06 > 0:38:09that's it, cos I know I can go on to another fair
0:38:09 > 0:38:10and get a lot more for it.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- I was thinking sort of 50. - I bet you were.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16Well, you think about it then, because...
0:38:16 > 0:38:18What's your absolute rock bottom?
0:38:20 > 0:38:2158?
0:38:21 > 0:38:2358! 55?
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Oh...
0:38:25 > 0:38:28- Go on.- 55? What do you think, girls?
0:38:28 > 0:38:30Come and have a closer look.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32Have a little look.
0:38:32 > 0:38:37Have a look, Caroline. I mean, what we've got here, I would say, is...
0:38:37 > 0:38:40it's lovely to have the set complete in its box.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Yes, we've got a tiny bit of damage on that plate,
0:38:43 > 0:38:46but, otherwise, I mean, look at it, it's just as it was made,
0:38:46 > 0:38:47really, in its original packaging.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50We've got the name on the bottom here, Biltons.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52I would think that's Staffordshire.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54Now, have you heard of Mabel Lucie Attwell?
0:38:54 > 0:38:55No, I can't say I have.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58She was a children's illustrator, um,
0:38:58 > 0:39:01around the very early 20th century.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04The designs here are very much in her style of design,
0:39:04 > 0:39:08so, although they're not actually signed Mabel Lucie Attwell, I think
0:39:08 > 0:39:13this is going to appeal very much to a Mabel Lucie Attwell collector.
0:39:13 > 0:39:1655... I would have thought it's worth a gamble.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18- Shall we?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20- We'll give it a go then.- Happy? - Happy.
0:39:20 > 0:39:25£55 for the tea set and only one item left to find for the Red team.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28Now, is James letting the Blues make some decisions at last?
0:39:28 > 0:39:30What about these pigs? I've seen them...
0:39:30 > 0:39:33- They're horrible! Come on! - They're not!- He doesn't like them.
0:39:33 > 0:39:34They're horrible!
0:39:34 > 0:39:35Oh, dear.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Ooh, that's a nice picture.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39What do you think?
0:39:39 > 0:39:41Girl with dogs are popular. So, if they're on the internet,
0:39:41 > 0:39:44if they're photographed, it's got a chance, but let's just
0:39:44 > 0:39:47find out how much it is. How much is this, please?
0:39:48 > 0:39:50The bottom line...
0:39:50 > 0:39:52- is 85.- 85.
0:39:53 > 0:39:55OK, she's 19th century.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57She's painted around 1880, not signed,
0:39:57 > 0:40:00- so what we would say is she's English School.- Right.
0:40:00 > 0:40:04Anything to do with a pretty young girl with dogs, you'd probably call
0:40:04 > 0:40:07it "Young Friends" or something like that, if you were an auctioneer.
0:40:07 > 0:40:11- I can see that making 120. - Yeah.- You know, I think...
0:40:11 > 0:40:15- Yeah, we'll go for it, James.- Yeah? - Yeah.- Let's see if we can...
0:40:15 > 0:40:17Any little tiny reductions?
0:40:17 > 0:40:19No. - 83!
0:40:20 > 0:40:24Well, that's better than nothing, every penny counts, so...
0:40:24 > 0:40:26How about 80? Any good?
0:40:26 > 0:40:31- I can't do it, John.- All right. Uh, £84.50 it is.- Yeah.
0:40:31 > 0:40:34- £84.50, we've got a deal. - Thank you very much.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36Well, every penny does count in this game
0:40:36 > 0:40:40and that pretty puppy picture pretty much wraps it up for the Blues,
0:40:40 > 0:40:43but the Reds now have only five minutes left.
0:40:43 > 0:40:44Let's go. Move! Run!
0:40:46 > 0:40:48- Five minutes.- Five minutes.
0:40:48 > 0:40:49Any good?
0:40:51 > 0:40:55- What do you think about that, girls? - It's very pretty.
0:40:55 > 0:41:00- It's 1960s to '70, it's hand blown...- Hmm.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02And I've never seen the decoration...
0:41:02 > 0:41:03because it's not painted.
0:41:03 > 0:41:06What I quite like, which makes it a bit more unusual,
0:41:06 > 0:41:08is you've got this double-layered effect.
0:41:08 > 0:41:12You've got the decoration, which has been done in molten glass,
0:41:12 > 0:41:17this sort of pendant floral effect, and then that is cased in clear
0:41:17 > 0:41:21glass, so it almost gives it a sort of three-dimensional effect.
0:41:21 > 0:41:22How much is that?
0:41:22 > 0:41:2532 is the very, very best on that.
0:41:25 > 0:41:27Oh, you couldn't go down to 30?
0:41:27 > 0:41:29Just a really nice round figure?
0:41:29 > 0:41:31- It'll help us out no end. - Go on.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34- 30?- Yeah, definitely, deal. Done.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36- Right.- Right.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39BUGLE BLOWS
0:41:39 > 0:41:42Time's up. Let's remind ourselves what the Reds bought.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Really, Barry?!
0:41:45 > 0:41:48Will the Clarice Cliff fruiting tree bear fruit at the auction?
0:41:51 > 0:41:55Will it be child's play for the 1930s Staffordshire child's tea set?
0:41:56 > 0:42:00And will the glass vase be a smash when it goes under the hammer?
0:42:04 > 0:42:06Now, Caroline, which is your favourite piece?
0:42:06 > 0:42:09- Uh, the plate, I think. - What about you, Renata?
0:42:09 > 0:42:10- I think the little vase. - The little vase.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit, Caro?
0:42:13 > 0:42:15- Maybe the little tea set.- Mm-hm.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18Unfortunately, I think, probably the same.
0:42:18 > 0:42:22You spent £145, so there's £155 to go to Kate Bliss.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25- Thank you very much. Lovely.- Gosh, she's grabbed that, hasn't she?
0:42:25 > 0:42:27- Fast!- How do you feel about it, Kate?
0:42:27 > 0:42:30Well, I'm going to get the girls something completely different,
0:42:30 > 0:42:33- I think.- Oh, brilliant. - But these are smart shoppers.
0:42:33 > 0:42:35They're girls! What do you expect?!
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Now, let's remind ourselves what the Blues bought.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42First up, it's a pair of Royal Doulton candlesticks.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48'Next, a late 19th century signed watercolour.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54'And, finally, a cuddly toy. Ha! Only joking.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58'It's this mid-19th century oil on canvas.'
0:42:58 > 0:43:00Now, Joe, which is your favourite piece?
0:43:00 > 0:43:02- Uh, the oil painting.- Oil painting. What about you, Bets?
0:43:02 > 0:43:04The same, the oil painting.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?
0:43:06 > 0:43:08- The oil painting. - What about you, Bets?
0:43:08 > 0:43:09I'm hoping the oil painting, yes.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12You're like a long playing record, you two. Welded from the hip!
0:43:12 > 0:43:15OK, fine, well, you spent £155.50.
0:43:15 > 0:43:19- Please give £144.50 to James Lewis. - There we go.
0:43:19 > 0:43:22And there's no better qualified man in the business to spend that.
0:43:22 > 0:43:23James, what have you got in mind?
0:43:23 > 0:43:26- Do you know, I haven't got a clue. - Haven't you?- Nope.
0:43:26 > 0:43:29Well, as they say, chop, chop.
0:43:29 > 0:43:30THEY LAUGH
0:43:40 > 0:43:43Well, we've come west to Market Harborough to Gilding's Saleroom
0:43:43 > 0:43:46to be with John Gilding, our auctioneer,
0:43:46 > 0:43:48- and man of the moment - John. - Thank you, Tim.
0:43:48 > 0:43:52Now, Caroline and Renata went with this Clarice Cliff plate.
0:43:52 > 0:43:55What have you got to tell us about this, John?
0:43:55 > 0:43:58Well, I have it on good authority that it's part of a dinner service
0:43:58 > 0:44:04circa 1950, late, so not too exciting for me, I'm afraid.
0:44:04 > 0:44:08- I've got 40 to 60 on it, I believe. - Yeah, £60 they paid, you see.
0:44:08 > 0:44:11- It's going to be difficult to make a profit on.- Yeah.
0:44:11 > 0:44:12OK, fair enough.
0:44:12 > 0:44:16Now, Kate Bliss found the children's dinner...tea set.
0:44:16 > 0:44:21It is most unusual to be in the box with all the pieces intact.
0:44:21 > 0:44:24- It's got every chance of making £50 to £70.- Well, she'll be delighted.
0:44:24 > 0:44:28- £55, she paid.- Well, that's well bought, I would have thought.
0:44:28 > 0:44:33And their last item is this cased glass vase.
0:44:33 > 0:44:37I like that very much, actually. It's a good-looking piece.
0:44:37 > 0:44:39When would you date that from, then?
0:44:39 > 0:44:44Well, I think that's probably late '30s up to early '50s.
0:44:44 > 0:44:46And your estimate is...how much?
0:44:46 > 0:44:50- Well, we've got on that 40 to 60. - Good-oh, Caroline paid £30, you see.
0:44:50 > 0:44:53- Well, I think our estimate's conservative, to be honest.- Do you?
0:44:53 > 0:44:55Yes, I think that's, uh...
0:44:55 > 0:44:58a good piece and I think it'll go well.
0:44:58 > 0:45:00Well, there we go. I'm inspired, John,
0:45:00 > 0:45:03but, just in case, let's go and have a look at their bonus buy.
0:45:05 > 0:45:08Most girls like their cake - I know I certainly do -
0:45:08 > 0:45:11so I bought you some rather nice little tea knives.
0:45:11 > 0:45:14They're dated from 1904.
0:45:14 > 0:45:17They're hallmarked in Sheffield
0:45:17 > 0:45:21and they also come in this lovely leather fitted case.
0:45:21 > 0:45:26- So I paid £24.- Is that all?! That's marvellous.- That's a good reaction.
0:45:26 > 0:45:29- Caroline, you like them, darling, do you?- Yeah, they're lovely.
0:45:29 > 0:45:32Good. Lovely. So that seems to be a bit of a hit.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35Think about it, all right? For the audience at home, though,
0:45:35 > 0:45:39let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Kate's knives.
0:45:39 > 0:45:41A set of tea knives.
0:45:41 > 0:45:42Sheffield, 1904.
0:45:42 > 0:45:45That's the hallmark on the handles.
0:45:45 > 0:45:47I tell you what I like about it. It's over 100 years old -
0:45:47 > 0:45:50- look at that case. It's not bad, is it?- It's very good.
0:45:50 > 0:45:52It's not always you get the case brought out.
0:45:52 > 0:45:56- No.- They were often used on a daily basis, and then the case got
0:45:56 > 0:45:58- thrown away.- These have hardly been touched.
0:45:58 > 0:46:03- What's your estimate? - We're on £40 to £60.- Good Lord.
0:46:03 > 0:46:07Well, Kate only paid £24, so that's an excellent Bonus Buy, isn't it?
0:46:07 > 0:46:09So that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.
0:46:09 > 0:46:13Joe, Louise and Betsy. The Doulton candlesticks.
0:46:13 > 0:46:18Fairly standard wares, this silicon stuff, isn't it?
0:46:18 > 0:46:19- Yes.- Do you like it?- No.
0:46:19 > 0:46:22Very boring, I'm afraid. £40 to £60.
0:46:22 > 0:46:25James Lewis paid £45, so he's just about in the frame with that.
0:46:25 > 0:46:31Now, the cottage. The lovely chocolate-box-y cottage.
0:46:31 > 0:46:33James paid £26 for that.
0:46:33 > 0:46:37- And it's nicely framed, and it's a fresh image...- Yes.
0:46:37 > 0:46:40- Do you think he'll get his money back?- We're hoping so -
0:46:40 > 0:46:41- our estimate is £50 to £70.- Really?
0:46:41 > 0:46:43He could double his money.
0:46:43 > 0:46:45- Could do.- Could do.
0:46:45 > 0:46:49Lastly, then, another picture, which is the girl holding her little dog.
0:46:49 > 0:46:53£84.50 he paid for that.
0:46:53 > 0:46:56Quite a precise amount. Do you rate that as a picture?
0:46:56 > 0:46:58Not really.
0:46:58 > 0:47:02I'm afraid it's not going anywhere, in my opinion.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04How much do you think the puppy dog is going to make?
0:47:04 > 0:47:08Well, I think we'd be very lucky to get between £40 and £60.
0:47:08 > 0:47:11£84.50 paid - could be a dead loss.
0:47:11 > 0:47:13I'm afraid so.
0:47:13 > 0:47:16Well, we'll have to see, John. But whichever way it goes,
0:47:16 > 0:47:19they've always got the option of their Bonus Buy,
0:47:19 > 0:47:21so let's go and have a look at it.
0:47:23 > 0:47:26- Oh, wow!- Do you love it? - Sort of.- That's nice, I like that.
0:47:26 > 0:47:29- It's fantastic, isn't it? - How old's that?
0:47:29 > 0:47:31About 1860, 1870, I should think.
0:47:31 > 0:47:34But what fantastic quality. I love it.
0:47:34 > 0:47:36Is that gold leaf on there?
0:47:36 > 0:47:40Well, it's strange. Tim and I were looking at this earlier, weren't we?
0:47:40 > 0:47:42What do you think to the manufacturing technique?
0:47:42 > 0:47:46I think you've got here the most belting quality bit of metalwork.
0:47:46 > 0:47:50You look at each of the sinuous bits of this vine,
0:47:50 > 0:47:55you can see every vein in every vine leaf, which is pretty brilliant.
0:47:55 > 0:47:58And James, what do you think about the print?
0:47:58 > 0:48:01- Isn't that print just amazing? - Isn't it lovely?
0:48:01 > 0:48:07Every element of this girl is made up out of a piece of a flower.
0:48:07 > 0:48:10- I mean, James, I think this is a very special item.- Good!
0:48:10 > 0:48:12- Glad you like it.- How much? - Well chosen!
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Well, how much do you think?
0:48:14 > 0:48:17I mean, this is fantastic quality, so what do you think I spent?
0:48:17 > 0:48:19About £50, £60?
0:48:19 > 0:48:20What?!
0:48:20 > 0:48:23I had over £100 left!
0:48:23 > 0:48:26I was hoping you wouldn't spend the lot!
0:48:26 > 0:48:30- You'd have been happy if I'd spent £50 or £60.- Yeah.
0:48:30 > 0:48:33- Good, I spent £60! - That's good, then!
0:48:33 > 0:48:35You are such a tease, James.
0:48:35 > 0:48:36THEY LAUGH
0:48:36 > 0:48:38There is a guaranteed profit in there.
0:48:38 > 0:48:40- Good.- Definitely.- I love it.
0:48:40 > 0:48:43You're very confident about that, James. I think quite rightly so.
0:48:43 > 0:48:46But for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks
0:48:46 > 0:48:47about the frame and the print.
0:48:49 > 0:48:51Now, John, isn't that magnificent?
0:48:51 > 0:48:54Lovely. The frame is very, very attractive.
0:48:54 > 0:48:58Beautifully pressed gilt metal.
0:48:58 > 0:49:01And I think it should go extremely well.
0:49:01 > 0:49:05- I rather like the print, too. - Well, yes. Looking at the print...
0:49:05 > 0:49:08I looked at nothing but the frame, but the print is really quite...
0:49:08 > 0:49:11- a good piece of early print work, isn't it?- Yes!
0:49:11 > 0:49:14What do you think it's going to bring, John, in the auction?
0:49:14 > 0:49:18Well, we've been what I think is very conservative at £50 to £70.
0:49:18 > 0:49:21But I think it's got a really good potential.
0:49:21 > 0:49:26- James paid £60. You put £50 to £70 conservatively on it.- Yeah.
0:49:26 > 0:49:30I mean, I could see it being £100 to £120, I have to say.
0:49:30 > 0:49:33I would have thought that's not beyond the bounds of possibility.
0:49:33 > 0:49:36- Well, there you go.- There you go. - That's from the lips
0:49:36 > 0:49:38of the auctioneer. We'll look forward to the contest, John,
0:49:38 > 0:49:40- and good luck.- Thank you very much.
0:49:40 > 0:49:4670. 5. 80. 5. 90. 5.
0:49:46 > 0:49:47100!
0:49:51 > 0:49:53Now, Caroline and Renata, you're looking nice and fresh.
0:49:53 > 0:49:56- Feeling not too bad. - Feeling a bit naughty?
0:49:56 > 0:50:00- Maybe?- On the edge of naughty? - A bit.
0:50:00 > 0:50:03Well, the first item is your Clarice Cliff plate,
0:50:03 > 0:50:05and here it comes, Renata. Let's be brave.
0:50:05 > 0:50:08Start the bidding where you will. £20 bid, thank you.
0:50:08 > 0:50:11At £20, I'm bid 20.
0:50:11 > 0:50:13At £20, I'm bid 20. Do I see 2 on the net?
0:50:13 > 0:50:1622, you're out in the room.
0:50:16 > 0:50:18At £22.
0:50:18 > 0:50:21This is not enough, but I'm selling at... 24. 26 standing.
0:50:21 > 0:50:2428, bid 28, in the room at 28.
0:50:24 > 0:50:27At 28, 30, I'm bid 30. On the net at 30.
0:50:27 > 0:50:29- Come on!- That's £30 I'm bid, 32,
0:50:29 > 0:50:32on the door at 32. 35.
0:50:32 > 0:50:3435, bid 38, at 38, at 38, 40?
0:50:34 > 0:50:38At £38 I'm bid. Right at the door.
0:50:38 > 0:50:4040 on the net, I'm bid 40. Sorry.
0:50:40 > 0:50:42At £40, I'm bid 40.
