0:00:02 > 0:00:03JAMES BOND THEME TUNE

0:00:04 > 0:00:08The name's Wonnacott, Tim Wonnacott.

0:00:08 > 0:00:10And welcome to Bargain Hunt.

0:00:10 > 0:00:12BANG!

0:00:36 > 0:00:40Welcome to Deene Park in Northamptonshire.

0:00:40 > 0:00:44Boy, have we got an action-packed show for you today!

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Coming up on today's show...

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Kate soon finds out the Reds have very different taste.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Do you like that?

0:00:53 > 0:00:55I think it's horrible!

0:00:55 > 0:00:56The point is, would somebody buy it?

0:00:56 > 0:00:59No, I don't care, I wouldn't let them buy it!

0:00:59 > 0:01:02And the Blues worry them might not make any money.

0:01:02 > 0:01:09- If you think we can make a profit on that...- Well, the good news is we can only make £6 loss, can't we!

0:01:09 > 0:01:13Over at the auction though, there are plenty of surprises in store.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15- Go, go, go, go!- No!

0:01:15 > 0:01:17Whoa!

0:01:19 > 0:01:24Our teams need to find three items for £300 or less.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27There's no point in them finding anything that they like because

0:01:27 > 0:01:32the name of the game is to take their three items off to auction later, in Market Harborough,

0:01:32 > 0:01:36and make a bit of a profit. Ha! Now that is a tall order.

0:01:36 > 0:01:42But they'll have the helping hands of an expert. So let's go and meet today's teams.

0:01:43 > 0:01:49For the Red Team today we've got Juliet and Bob, that's daughter and father.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53And for the Blues we've got Elaine and Melissa, mother and daughter.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Welcome teams to Bargain Hunt. - Thank you, Tim.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00Now, Juliet, you've been acting for a bit. Tell us about it.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04I started when I was 18. And I have been involved in a couple of groups,

0:02:04 > 0:02:07then moved on to the Playhouse Theatre in Northampton.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10And the Playhouse puts on six productions a year,

0:02:10 > 0:02:12so we have to rehearse three times a week.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15And I'm now turning my hand to directing.

0:02:15 > 0:02:19Now, Bob, in the 1960s you had a pretty impressive job, didn't you?

0:02:19 > 0:02:20Tell us about it.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23It was the happiest time of my life, working for Aston Martin motorcars.

0:02:23 > 0:02:29And at that time of course, it was the Bond films and I was the lucky chap that had the opportunity

0:02:29 > 0:02:36to go with the cars on films and productions and all the different outings you had to take the cars.

0:02:36 > 0:02:39- Were you a stunt driver?- I'd done a bit of stunt driving, yes.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42But you're also into a bit of acting...?

0:02:42 > 0:02:48I've done a bit of...extra work in various films, a bit of driving, of course. It's all good fun.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50What do you get up to in your spare time?

0:02:50 > 0:02:52I play a lot of snooker.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54You've had some moments of fame?

0:02:54 > 0:02:58Yes, I have. I've played most of the professionals.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02- I did take a frame off Jimmy White once, from scratch...- Did you?!

0:03:02 > 0:03:04..so I'm rather delighted with that, yes.

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Well, on that happy note then,

0:03:06 > 0:03:09perhaps we'll leave you to your reverie and move on to the Blues.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13Now girls, Elaine, you've been on TV too, haven't you, before now?

0:03:13 > 0:03:16I certainly have, but it was a few years ago now.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19- I was on Body Spies, which is a health programme...- Mm-hm.

0:03:19 > 0:03:25..and basically it was videoing you and your partner in secret and checking that they were doing

0:03:25 > 0:03:28their exercises, so it was only a 15-minute slot of fame.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31And do you ever get any time to collect anything?

0:03:31 > 0:03:34Er, yeah, I've collected a few things over the years, a few teddy bears,

0:03:34 > 0:03:37some porcelain, a little bit of glass.

0:03:37 > 0:03:42But my favourite is my teddy that my grandfather bought me when I was five.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44- Yes.- So it's getting on a bit now!

0:03:44 > 0:03:47Melissa, you're keen on going to car-boot sales with your mother.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50Yes, I am. Yes, we went to one the other week.

0:03:50 > 0:03:55A couple of our friends run it, and they were doing in support of the local air ambulance.

0:03:55 > 0:03:56So yeah, it was good fun.

0:03:56 > 0:04:00And there's a bit of excitement any minute now in your career, isn't there?

0:04:00 > 0:04:03Yes there is. Tomorrow I'm in the final of Miss Northampton.

0:04:03 > 0:04:09So there's 11 finalists, I'm one of those girls, so fingers crossed I get through.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Well, we'll find out about that when we meet for the auction.- Yes.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15Now, first up though, here's the money moment,

0:04:15 > 0:04:17fingers all a-twingle.

0:04:17 > 0:04:18There you go, there's £300.

0:04:18 > 0:04:21You know the rules, your experts await and off you go!

0:04:21 > 0:04:26And very, very good luck! So will the Reds be pulling off some impressive stunts?

0:04:26 > 0:04:30Or will the Blues be singing and dancing all the way to the auction?

0:04:30 > 0:04:34With so many antiques here, our teams are going to blinded by their choice.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37Which is why they get the help of an expert.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40The Reds may like their cocktails shaken not stirred,

0:04:40 > 0:04:43but are they as fussy about antiques?

0:04:43 > 0:04:44Kate Bliss finds out.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49And leading the Blues towards a grand finale is James Lewis.

0:04:49 > 0:04:53And today they'll be helping not one, but two pairs of Reds and Blues.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59- OK, girls, what are we looking for today?- I'd like to find some porcelain if we can.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01Anything you're looking for in particular?

0:05:01 > 0:05:06Um, I think I'll go for something '60s, '70s, a bit retro.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10- What about you, Melissa?- I'm thinking more retro, '60s, '70s.

0:05:10 > 0:05:11Yeah?

0:05:11 > 0:05:16Those little silver, er...vesta-type things that hold gold sovereigns...

0:05:16 > 0:05:18- I know, little vesta cases.- Yes.

0:05:18 > 0:05:22So it sounds like the teams can talk the talk,

0:05:22 > 0:05:25now let's see if they can walk the walk. Your 60 minutes of shopping

0:05:25 > 0:05:27has officially started!

0:05:28 > 0:05:33- Little bottle-stopper with a knight on the top.- Very cute, isn't it?

0:05:33 > 0:05:35What sort of money is she asking for that?

0:05:35 > 0:05:40If I look at it with my glass, the modelling, the way it's been cast,

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- it's actually really quite detailed. - It is.

0:05:42 > 0:05:45You've got all the detail of his armour and his little visor.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48- I would think looking at it, it is continental silver.- Yes.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50- I like it.- What do you think, Juliet?

0:05:50 > 0:05:54I quite like it, it's quite novel, it's a novelty item, isn't it?

0:05:54 > 0:06:00- Um...yeah, I wouldn't have it myself, but...- I would.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04I like it. It's not a pourer, it's just a decorative thing.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08- So what's your absolute rock-bottom, madam?- Ten, I'm afraid.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11- £10. Sounds good. - Yes. Happy, Juliet?

0:06:11 > 0:06:14- Fine, yes, happy with that. - I think we'll take it, please.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Well done you, lovely.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18Well, that was quick work.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21There are 55 minutes left to find the other two items

0:06:21 > 0:06:24so the Reds can afford to take their time.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28To the Blues, who've found something rather unusual here at Corby,

0:06:28 > 0:06:32but what do the girls think of the South Sea Island carved bowl?

0:06:32 > 0:06:35- Pretty wacky, isn't it?- It is.- I quite like it, though.- You like it?

0:06:35 > 0:06:38- I do.- You like it?- Hmm, bit of potpourri in it.

0:06:38 > 0:06:42- Will we be able to make a profit on that? Not really.- I don't know.

0:06:42 > 0:06:45- What would be your best on that please?- Eight.

0:06:45 > 0:06:50- That's one pound off! - I was thinking- £6. Six?

0:06:50 > 0:06:52< Six...go on then.

0:06:52 > 0:06:57- £6. What do you think?- I like it, yeah.- If you think we can make a profit on that...

0:06:57 > 0:07:01Well, the good news is we can only make £6 loss, can't we?!

0:07:01 > 0:07:03- Let's go for it. - Do you like it?- Yeah, I do.

0:07:03 > 0:07:07The thing is, it's light, it's obviously tribal of some form,

0:07:07 > 0:07:10probably something somebody's brought back as a tourist object.

0:07:10 > 0:07:15- But it's practical, you know, and it's...- It would fit in.- It's almost South Sea Island, isn't it?

0:07:15 > 0:07:19It could almost be...it could be Maori, could be New Zealand,

0:07:19 > 0:07:22could be Fijian, Tongan, something like that.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25And it has got some age to it, look.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Let's go for it! £6. - You can't go wrong with £6.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Let's have it. Thank you very much, we'll have that.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35Well done, Melissa, for getting the price down. I think you might do rather well with that one.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39So it's one-all, and 49 minutes remaining.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42- You don't like pewter?- No, I don't.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Well, I don't know.

0:07:44 > 0:07:49I'm just going to turn it over and see if we've got any mark on the bottom here.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52We've got Manor, so it's nothing particularly special

0:07:52 > 0:07:54in terms of manufacture.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57What I like about it is this hammered effect.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01Do you see what I mean? The other good thing is that the glass is in

0:08:01 > 0:08:05nice condition. Because these often do get knocked or dropped.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09- How much is this, please? - My best would be 35.- 35.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13What do you think, Kate?

0:08:13 > 0:08:17I think if we had a nice name, I mean, the Rolls-Royce

0:08:17 > 0:08:21in pewter manufacture of this sort of period, the Arts and Crafts look,

0:08:21 > 0:08:24is Tudric pewter. This isn't in this league at all,

0:08:24 > 0:08:28but it almost has the look of an Arts and Crafts piece,

0:08:28 > 0:08:30- but without being very expensive. - How old is it?

0:08:30 > 0:08:33It's a good question. I would think it's probably,

0:08:33 > 0:08:37looking at those marks underneath there, early 20th century.

0:08:37 > 0:08:42Let's just see if she would do any more... Can you do any more, madam?

0:08:42 > 0:08:45- 33? - 33, you couldn't do 30?

0:08:45 > 0:08:49- Afraid not. - On a lovely day like this? - KATE LAUGHS

0:08:49 > 0:08:51- Come on...- 32.

0:08:51 > 0:08:52Kate, that's fine, yes.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55- 32?- Let's go for it, yes. - Sure?- Yes.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57- Yes.- Yes?- Yes!- Yes!

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Yes, let's go get it!

0:08:59 > 0:09:04I can't believe my ears. Juliet and Bob are finally seeing eye to eye.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Right, there's just under half and hour left,

0:09:06 > 0:09:13our Reds have a whopping 258 left to spend, and the Blues still have two items to buy.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Now these are interesting.

0:09:15 > 0:09:20Doulton. And they are...um, around 1890.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Nice Doulton Lambeth mark underneath there.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26- Wow.- And the good thing is, there is a pair of them.

0:09:26 > 0:09:29- Are they marked at all..- Yes, both. - ..chipped?- Oh, chipped?

0:09:29 > 0:09:31If you look on the foot rim of that one,

0:09:31 > 0:09:34there's a line across it, have a good look. 50?

0:09:34 > 0:09:38- I still think we are going to struggle at auction.- Hmm.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40- I think so.- 45?

0:09:40 > 0:09:44- Yeah. > - Yes. 45 is a good deal on those,

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- and I think there's a profit in them.- Hmm.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49- If you're happy with that, I'm happy.- Yeah, I'm happy.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51- I love the colour. - It's all about the profit.

0:09:51 > 0:09:57Mother and daughter are united yet again. But they are also hanging on to their money.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59They've only spent £51 so far.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02- What's that, table croquet?- Croquet.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Little mini-croquet set there. - What do you think, Kate?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08- Because I really like that. - It is a really nicely made set.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11You've got lignum vitae ends to the mallets.

0:10:11 > 0:10:15The balls are still in lovely condition, the colour of them is still good.

0:10:15 > 0:10:18It's really beautiful, beautifully crafted set.

0:10:18 > 0:10:23- What's the best...?- What's the very best on this set of table croquet?

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- It's got to be 97. - It's got to be 95?

0:10:26 > 0:10:29- Well, I can do a fiver. - £90.

0:10:29 > 0:10:33- 90, then I'm...- Do you think anyone would buy it for £90?

0:10:33 > 0:10:38Oh, decisions, decisions. But at least everyone seems to like it.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40Are the Blues getting on as well?

0:10:40 > 0:10:45- 1950s dress here, James, no? - Oh, what size?

0:10:45 > 0:10:47- Ha! It wouldn't fit you.- Ha-ha!

0:10:47 > 0:10:49- It is blue, though.- Yeah.

0:10:49 > 0:10:54It would appear so. Come along, girls - this isn't the time to get sidetracked.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Are the Reds still taking their time,

0:10:56 > 0:10:59or have they made their minds up?

0:10:59 > 0:11:02Well, it's your decision, chaps. you've got 18 minutes.

0:11:02 > 0:11:06- I'll go for it. Go for it. - We can always have another look

0:11:06 > 0:11:08at another stall if we've got 18 minutes.

0:11:08 > 0:11:13- I don't want to rush into this.- Rush in?! We've been here ten minutes!

0:11:13 > 0:11:17Well, at this rate we're going to use your 17 minutes thinking about it.

0:11:17 > 0:11:18Well, I'll say yes.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23- All right.- OK.- Go on, then, yes.

0:11:23 > 0:11:28- Happy?- Yes, why not?- Yes, done it, done that.- Let's go for it.

0:11:28 > 0:11:33Hurrah! Juliet does like to take her time and think things through.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I hope the Blues are quicker at making decisions.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38What is it, a scoring book?

0:11:38 > 0:11:40It's a scoring book, but look.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42Wonderful Edwardian - and solid silver.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44- Is it?- Is it? - Hallmarked on the front there.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Let's have a look. 55.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51You know, it's a modern piece of silver in the Edwardian style.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55But anything...just that silver plaque alone, in my opinion,

0:11:55 > 0:12:00- that silver plaque framed up is worth more than £55.- I know, yeah.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02What's your best price on that one, please?

0:12:02 > 0:12:03- What's on it?- 55 on it.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06< I can do that one for 45.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08- What do you think? - 45 is a fair price.

0:12:08 > 0:12:13The auctioneers are going to go up in fives. 20, 5, 30, 5, 40, 5.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16And hopefully keep going on and on and on!

0:12:16 > 0:12:18- That would be nice! We should go for it.- You think?

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Let me just ask - is £39 any good?

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Because then it gives us a chance to get into profit if it goes to 40.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26- < Um...yeah, go on, then. - Yes.- Thank you very much.

0:12:26 > 0:12:28- Do we agree?- Yeah.- Yes. - Let's go for it.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Fantastic, thank you.

0:12:30 > 0:12:35He's a cunning fox, that James. But every pound counts later at auction

0:12:35 > 0:12:38and that's where the Blues are headed now, because time's up!

0:12:40 > 0:12:46Now the shopping's over, it's time for the expert to spend the leftover lolly on a bonus buy.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50They'll try to find their teams a piece to sell at auction and make some extra profit.

0:12:50 > 0:12:55But of course it could lose money, which would be deducted from their final figures.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59Will they trust their expert or not? We'll find out later.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02But for now, let's remind ourselves of what the Reds bought.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Juliet and Bob got off to a flying start

0:13:07 > 0:13:11and bought the silver stopper, after just five minutes, for a tenner.

0:13:11 > 0:13:15It soon became clear to Kate that Juliet and Bob had very different tastes.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18But after half an hour of disagreeing, they finally found

0:13:18 > 0:13:21something they both liked and bought the inkstand for £32.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27Juliet isn't one to rush in and buy,

0:13:27 > 0:13:29so after some careful thought and consideration,

0:13:29 > 0:13:35she gave the table croquet set the thumbs up and paid £90. How's that!

0:13:35 > 0:13:38So, how much did you spend, and how much leftover lolly is there?

0:13:38 > 0:13:44- I think we spent £132, we've got £168 left.- Who's got the £168?

0:13:44 > 0:13:46- I have.- Ah, you're holding the dough. - Naturally!

0:13:46 > 0:13:51- That goes straight to Kate...- There you are.- ..who's going to go off and find your bonus buy.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54- Wonderful, see you a bit later. - Are you feeling confident?

0:13:54 > 0:13:59- Well, I am. I think perhaps Bob has had most of the say, is it fair to say?- Yes!

0:13:59 > 0:14:02Just to keep the peace, I might just find a ladies' piece.

0:14:02 > 0:14:06A little bit of a girlie bonding piece. Well done, Kate.

0:14:06 > 0:14:09Now, why don't we check out how the Blues are getting on?

0:14:09 > 0:14:12Both Elaine and Melissa loved

0:14:12 > 0:14:16the South Sea Island wooden bowl. And at £6, who can blame them?

0:14:16 > 0:14:21With James' seal of approval, the Blues bought the vases for £45.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Thanks to James' tactical approach,

0:14:24 > 0:14:29they got the price down to £39 for the golf score card.

0:14:29 > 0:14:36- We have £90 spent, which means there's £210 leftover lolly. - James is lucky!

0:14:36 > 0:14:40- Who's got that?- I have.- Oh! Well done, Elaine, you've got the £210.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44- I have, who wants it? James? - We're going to give that to James,

0:14:44 > 0:14:47he's very happy to take the £210. James' job is to find the bonus buy.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51What are you going to do with £210? That's a lot of money, isn't it?

0:14:51 > 0:14:56It is an awful lot. I think I've got the choice of any object in the whole fair!

0:14:56 > 0:15:00- You're going to be able to buy half the fair?- Should be able to. - Have you got an idea, James?

0:15:00 > 0:15:04- Absolutely none - as usual! - So nothing to spill the beans.

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Anyway, good luck with that, James.

0:15:22 > 0:15:27Gilding's saleroom in Market Harborough is where we're at with John Gilding,

0:15:27 > 0:15:31- president and lifetime chairman. Is that right?- Almost!

0:15:31 > 0:15:33- Almost. Nice to see you, John. - Thank you, Tim.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Now Juliet and Bob, for the Reds, went for this bottle-stopper

0:15:36 > 0:15:41which I think has to be one of the all-time best buys, don't you?

0:15:41 > 0:15:45It's very good buying that is, at £10.

0:15:45 > 0:15:50We've got a £25-40 estimate, so they should make a little profit on that one.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53They could make 400% profit...

0:15:53 > 0:15:54That would be marvellous.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Now what about this pewter hammered inkwell?

0:15:57 > 0:16:02- 1930S, don't you think?- Oh, yes. - By Manor, and in very good order.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05I doubt it's ever been used, to be honest.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08- And £40-60... - Is that your estimate?- Yes.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Well, that's great. £32 was paid.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13And what of these lovely novelty items,

0:16:13 > 0:16:17an Edwardian, sort of, parlour game that doesn't have much currency today,

0:16:17 > 0:16:20but this is all pretty well complete. How do you rate that?

0:16:20 > 0:16:22I think it's very good. We've had one of these before,

0:16:22 > 0:16:25some time ago, and it was well received.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28- So my estimate for that is 60-80. - Is that all?

0:16:28 > 0:16:32- Well...- I'm not trying to push you, but £90 was paid, you see.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34- Yes, well...- Might it make 100?

0:16:34 > 0:16:36I wouldn't put it beyond the bounds of possibility.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- With a bit of skilful auctioneering? - Yes.- Yes.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41We're in the right place for that, aren't we!

0:16:41 > 0:16:43Thank you, Tim!

0:16:43 > 0:16:46Anyway, overall, they might need their bonus buy,

0:16:46 > 0:16:47so let's go and have a look at it.

0:16:47 > 0:16:52Not one, but two - a pair of little silver dishes.

0:16:52 > 0:16:53They're very sweet.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56They are very sweet, they're very pretty,

0:16:56 > 0:16:59they are English hallmarked silver, marked underneath.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02They are George V in date, so 1926.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04How much did you pay, Kate?

0:17:04 > 0:17:09Well, I paid £40. So at £20 each, I don't think that's too bad.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11No. How much do you think it's going to make?

0:17:11 > 0:17:15I would say you've got a small profit in there, but I can't guarantee anything.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17You watched her lips then. She said, "I can't guarantee",

0:17:17 > 0:17:21but she thinks there's a small profit. So hold on to that thought.

0:17:21 > 0:17:25You might make a small profit, you might not need the bonus buy

0:17:25 > 0:17:27because you're going to be so far ahead at that moment. Right?

0:17:27 > 0:17:30For the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks

0:17:30 > 0:17:33about the little silver pots.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36Well, little bonbon dishes,

0:17:36 > 0:17:39- and our estimate is £40-60.- Really?

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Well, that's great because Kate paid £40,

0:17:42 > 0:17:47so if you get 40-60, and turn them in a profit - if the team go with

0:17:47 > 0:17:48the bonus buy, that'll be great.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Right.- Thank you very much. That's it for the Reds.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Now for the Blues, Melissa and Elaine.

0:17:54 > 0:17:59And their first item, I think, is really extraordinary.

0:17:59 > 0:18:03- This Polynesian, I suppose, bowl. - Yes.

0:18:03 > 0:18:07There's quite a good following for carved,

0:18:07 > 0:18:09- ethnic..- Tribal.- ..tribal works,

0:18:09 > 0:18:13and we think that will probably go to £60-80.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16Now, if I tell you that they paid £6 for this...

0:18:16 > 0:18:20- Good heavens!- ..does that surprise you?- That's an absolute knockout.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24Next up is the pair of Doulton vases. How do you rate those, John?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Well, £60-80 is our estimate.

0:18:26 > 0:18:31Well, that cunning monkey James Lewis found the pair for £45.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35Their last item is the modern silver-cased golfing book.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39- We've got an estimate of £40-60. - Well, there you go. £39 paid.

0:18:39 > 0:18:43We've got three objects for this team, all of which are predicted

0:18:43 > 0:18:47- to make, to a greater or lesser extent, profits!- Yes.

0:18:47 > 0:18:52So for a change, they probably won't need their bonus buy, but let's have a look at it anyway.

0:18:53 > 0:18:57So, Blues, did we have a successful modelling competition, Melissa?

0:18:57 > 0:19:01- We did. I didn't do as well as I wanted to.- Did you win it?

0:19:01 > 0:19:03- No, I came second.- Second!- I know!

0:19:03 > 0:19:04- Congratulations!- Thank you.

0:19:04 > 0:19:10Girls, you spent a miserable £90, and you left James with £210.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13- Do you want to see what he bought you?- Yeah, go on.

0:19:13 > 0:19:14I think you'll love it!

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Oh... I don't know what it is.

0:19:16 > 0:19:17Hat pin, no?

0:19:17 > 0:19:22- Ooh! A twizzler for cocktails. - For champagne and cocktails.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25- Love it.- Isn't that fun?- That is. - There we go.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28- Wow!- Is it gold?- No.- It is!

0:19:28 > 0:19:31- Is it?- It is gold, it's nine-carat gold.- I like it.

0:19:31 > 0:19:35How much do you think he paid for this solid-gold stylish swizzler?

0:19:35 > 0:19:3735!

0:19:37 > 0:19:39- That's brilliant.- That is awesome.

0:19:39 > 0:19:44- It is great, isn't it?- That is. - I think we'll definitely make a profit on that. Tim?

0:19:44 > 0:19:48Well, James, I think you've stirred up quite enough excitement for one day!

0:19:48 > 0:19:51For the audience at home though, let's find out

0:19:51 > 0:19:54what the auctioneer thinks about James' swizzler.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57Fantastic.

0:19:57 > 0:20:01Nine-carat gold, cocktail swizzle stick.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04So how do you rate this one? The nine-carat gold,

0:20:04 > 0:20:07- and in pretty good nick, isn't it? - £60-80.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10- Is that what you think it's worth? - Yes, I do.- Lewis found it for £35.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14That's what goes to make a good expert when he finds a bonus buy

0:20:14 > 0:20:18and the auctioneer can think £60-80, if the team is smart enough

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- to go with it. And there's no guarantee there.- No.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25- Are you taking the sale today, John? - Yes, I am.- We're in safe hands.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36At £14....

0:20:36 > 0:20:39Selling at £14.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42So, J and B, Juliet and Bob,

0:20:42 > 0:20:45father and proud daughter welded from the hip.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47Two peas in a pod.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50How are we feeling, in the confidence stakes?

0:20:50 > 0:20:53- I'm not particularly... - I'm confident.- Are you?

0:20:53 > 0:20:56I've ordered a new car, so I'm confident.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Have you gone for scrappage then?

0:20:58 > 0:21:03- No, cash deal.- Cash deal, very nice too.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06Anyway, first lot up is Kate's bung, and here it comes.

0:21:06 > 0:21:11And 113, lovely little bottle-stopper. Continental silver.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14Bids on the book commence at £15. £15,

0:21:38 > 0:21:42£32 then in the room, and seated at £32.

0:21:42 > 0:21:46£32 is a profit of £22. Brilliant.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49414. This lovely desk stand.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51The hammered pewter desk stand,

0:21:51 > 0:21:53what will you say for that? Ought to be 100.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56No reserve, and I'm only bid £25 on commission.

0:21:56 > 0:21:5928 in the room. 30 I'm bid, 32?

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- So jammy, you two! - At £55 then on the net.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24Are you all done? Quite sure then?

0:22:24 > 0:22:27I'm selling at £55.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30- Well done, Kate! - That is £23 profit on that.

0:22:30 > 0:22:35You are £45 up, and here comes the croquet.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Croquet set. The table-top croquet set,

0:22:37 > 0:22:41and I'm pretty sure this is absolutely complete.

0:22:41 > 0:22:42What would you like to say for that?

0:22:42 > 0:22:45In your hands entirely, £100?

0:22:45 > 0:22:48Well, I have to start the bidding at 60, and you're all out at 60.

0:22:48 > 0:22:50£60, I'm bid 60.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52£60, I'm bid £65.

0:22:52 > 0:22:5770, 5. You're still out in the room at 75.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59It's on commission and it's £75 and will be sold.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01- At £75...- I can't bear it.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05Quite sure then? Finished and away at £75.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08- I'm crying into the beer. - It's not too bad.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11- It got close.- It's not good, is it?

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Anyway, that's minus £15. Nevertheless, you are plus £30.

0:23:15 > 0:23:19You have £30 in the bank. What you going to do about these trinket dishes?

0:23:19 > 0:23:22- Go for it.- We're going to go for it.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24All right, fine, here it comes.

0:23:24 > 0:23:25And lot 119.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46Bidding on the net? You're out. The bid's in the room at £24.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49There's no reserve and I have to sell.

0:23:49 > 0:23:54At £24 are we all done? Finished, away then at £24.

0:23:54 > 0:24:01- No money is £24.- Never mind. - I can't bear it. It's minus £16.

0:24:01 > 0:24:07- Listen, you're still £14 up.- There we go.- £14 in profit.- Fantastic!

0:24:07 > 0:24:09- A few pints.- Nothing wrong with that.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12Look at this girl's face. Isn't that lovely to see.

0:24:12 > 0:24:16You're £14 up, don't tell the Blues a thing, hope you're a winning score. Right, thank you.

0:24:16 > 0:24:22..at 16, 16. In the room at £16, 18, 18, 18...

0:24:33 > 0:24:37- So you two chicks, you feeling happy?- Excited.- Excited.

0:24:37 > 0:24:42- Can't wait.- What - on the edge of excitement - level are you?

0:24:42 > 0:24:45I think we're going to do really, really well.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48First up then is your Polynesian bowl, and here it comes.

0:24:48 > 0:24:53134. This lovely little Polynesian carved-wood vessel.

0:24:53 > 0:24:56I like this. What will you say for it, please?

0:24:57 > 0:25:01I have to open the bidding at £60 and you're all out.

0:25:01 > 0:25:05£60 I'm bid 60. At £60 I'm bid, and that's the maiden bid.

0:25:05 > 0:25:09- It's 5 on the net, 70 with me. - Yes!- £70, bid quickly, please.

0:25:35 > 0:25:42Look at that, £150. That is a profit of £144.

0:25:42 > 0:25:47- Good Lord.- Well done! - Settle now, here come the vases.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50£30, there's no reserve. At £30, I'm bid 30.

0:26:01 > 0:26:0650 I'm bid £50, and that's for the pair remember, at £50.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Do I see 5 anywhere, quickly?

0:26:08 > 0:26:11At £50 then, on the net, you're all out in the room, it's sold.

0:26:11 > 0:26:18£50. A profit's a profit. £50 is a £5 note, so we're £149 up!

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Little golfing record book, please.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24Modern, I know, but it's as clean as a whistle. What will you say? £100?

0:26:45 > 0:26:47sold at £50.

0:26:47 > 0:26:51And another profit. That is brilliant. £50 gives you £11 profit

0:26:51 > 0:26:57- which takes you very neatly to £160 up. 160! - We're going with the twizzle.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00- You're going with the twizzle? Decision made?- Yes.- Decision made.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04140. This is the loveliest lot of the day.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Lot 140, a little twizzle stick.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09Bidding has to start with me on commission at £60

0:27:09 > 0:27:12and you're all out. £60 I'm bid 60.

0:27:12 > 0:27:16At £60 I'm bid 60, 60, do I see 5 anywhere? Quickly.

0:27:16 > 0:27:21£60, you all done? It's a maiden bid, it will be sold at £60.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Well, that's fair enough, that's £25 profit.

0:27:24 > 0:27:30- You are plus £185. That is just brilliant.- Awesome!- Congratulations.

0:27:30 > 0:27:31- Thank you, James.- Well done.

0:27:31 > 0:27:35So, a huge profit of £185 for the Blues,

0:27:35 > 0:27:36making them the winners,

0:27:36 > 0:27:39as remember, the Reds made just £14.

0:27:41 > 0:27:45Coming up, two more pairs of Reds and Blues go in search of bargains.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49But first, I'm off to one of Europe's greatest estates.

0:27:55 > 0:28:03Burghley House in Lincolnshire is grand on the outside and boy, is it grand inside.

0:28:03 > 0:28:07Built in the 16th century, it contains the finest collection

0:28:07 > 0:28:11of Italian Baroque paintings anywhere in Britain.

0:28:11 > 0:28:13And that is saying something.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25The fifth Earl is largely responsible for

0:28:25 > 0:28:28much of the design and decoration of the George rooms.

0:28:28 > 0:28:32He employed an Italian painter, Antonia Verio,

0:28:32 > 0:28:35who was exceedingly fashionable at the time.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38Now, Verio is an interesting character.

0:28:38 > 0:28:43It took him some 39 weeks, for example, to decorate this ceiling,

0:28:43 > 0:28:49and in total, for the five rooms and staircase that he decorated at Burghley,

0:28:49 > 0:28:52he was working here for ten years.

0:28:52 > 0:28:57And it wasn't entirely plain sailing for him and the fifth Earl.

0:28:57 > 0:28:59They fell out on numerous occasions.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02Verio was a bit of a firebrand

0:29:02 > 0:29:06and in fact, in the records here at Burghley,

0:29:06 > 0:29:09they've got a copy of a bill from the George hotel,

0:29:09 > 0:29:12which is dated 1691,

0:29:12 > 0:29:16which gives us a sample of his tastes.

0:29:16 > 0:29:22The first description is for 12 bottles of claret

0:29:22 > 0:29:24and six bottles of Canary white wine.

0:29:24 > 0:29:30Verio was extravagant. Indeed, it's said that the women folk

0:29:30 > 0:29:33were not particularly safe around Mr Verio, either.

0:29:33 > 0:29:38Now, if we look at the ceiling, at this end, the naked figure in the middle

0:29:38 > 0:29:43is emblematic of plenty and on her right-hand side,

0:29:43 > 0:29:46we've got numerous loaves, fishes, oyster -

0:29:46 > 0:29:52in short, everything that is delicious from the fruits of the sea.

0:29:52 > 0:29:56On her left, we've got fowl and game,

0:29:56 > 0:30:01all ready to be consumed by the gods.

0:30:01 > 0:30:07The figure of plenty itself is modelled, apparently, on the cook here at Burghley House,

0:30:07 > 0:30:10who had resisted Verio's advances.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13As a result, he depicted her

0:30:13 > 0:30:16with not two breasts, but six.

0:30:17 > 0:30:22Meanwhile, back at Deene Park, how will our next two teams make out

0:30:22 > 0:30:24as they go hunting for bargains?

0:30:24 > 0:30:26Time to meet the Reds and Blues.

0:30:28 > 0:30:32For the Reds, we've got Jennifer and Jennifer, versus two friends,

0:30:32 > 0:30:35- Samantha and Pippa. Welcome to Bargain Hunt, girls.- Hello.

0:30:35 > 0:30:40Now, Jennifer Cherry, how do you two know each other?

0:30:40 > 0:30:43Jen owns a boat yard and I clean the narrow boats.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46- Do you? Now, do you collect anything, Jen?- Yes, I do, teapots.

0:30:46 > 0:30:50- Teapots?- Yes, and I have about 400. - 400 teapots!

0:30:50 > 0:30:52And what do you do with them?

0:30:52 > 0:30:55- Look at them.- Look at them. - Dust them.- Dust them.

0:30:55 > 0:31:01- How extraordinary! So, Jennifer Clarke.- Yes.- You must love boats cos you own a boat yard.

0:31:01 > 0:31:04- Yes, and I also live on one. - Do you really?- Yes.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06And do you ever collect anything?

0:31:06 > 0:31:09Used to. Obviously I've no room now,

0:31:09 > 0:31:12but I used to like collecting old furniture.

0:31:12 > 0:31:16- You've had some successes, though, haven't you?- Oh, yes, yes.

0:31:16 > 0:31:22- Found a chair abandoned on a council refuge site...- Mm-hm.

0:31:22 > 0:31:28..took it to be valued and it was later sold at auction for £1,100.

0:31:28 > 0:31:33- Never!- Yeah.- Off a tip?!- Yep. - My gosh, this team's going to do well, eh?

0:31:33 > 0:31:37- I should think the Blues are quaking in their boots, aren't you, girls?- Yep.

0:31:37 > 0:31:41- Now, Sam, how did you first meet Pip?- We met at secondary school, didn't we?

0:31:41 > 0:31:43Year seven, we were 11 years old.

0:31:43 > 0:31:48- And you just clicked, did you? - We did, didn't we? We fit together.

0:31:48 > 0:31:53- I'm going to have to keep my eye on you two because you're a bit accident prone.- Yeah.

0:31:53 > 0:31:55Yeah, you could say that.

0:31:55 > 0:31:57- We've had our fair few accidents. - Like what?

0:31:57 > 0:32:01Um, I've broken bones and cut my head open

0:32:01 > 0:32:07- but I think the worst was when I attempted to swallow a tennis racket.- Oh, yeah?

0:32:07 > 0:32:11Yeah, it was kind of me and my sister are really competitive,

0:32:11 > 0:32:15and she wanted to use my tennis racket and I didn't want her to use

0:32:15 > 0:32:19it and so, for some bizarre reason,

0:32:19 > 0:32:21it seemed really, really sensible at the time,

0:32:21 > 0:32:24I put the handle of the tennis racket in my mouth whilst on a swing

0:32:24 > 0:32:31and the head of the racket hit the floor and hit the back of my throat and bruised my jugular.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36And then I kind of lost my voice for six months.

0:32:36 > 0:32:38Dear, oh, dear, oh, dear!

0:32:38 > 0:32:43- You tried to swallow a tennis racket...- Yeah.- ..handle first.

0:32:43 > 0:32:48Better to start with the handle than the head! THEY LAUGH

0:32:48 > 0:32:51I think you should stop while you're ahead, quite frankly, girls.

0:32:51 > 0:32:57And on that medical note, we shall move on to the money moment. Here's your £300. £300 apiece.

0:32:57 > 0:33:04You know the rules. Your experts await. Be very careful. Off you go and very good luck!

0:33:04 > 0:33:06OK, girls, this way.

0:33:06 > 0:33:07- Come on.- Come on, then.

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Right, teams, off you go.

0:33:15 > 0:33:17- Feel free to open. - Oh, lovely, thank you.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20Let's have a little look, girls.

0:33:20 > 0:33:25Pretty little vesta case here. You get few of these on the programme. They're very collectible.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31- Obviously for matches.- Oh, yes! - This one has got the silver hallmark just here.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34- That's right.- This is Birmingham 1902.

0:33:34 > 0:33:39You do get novelty ones that make a lot of money or can do, in novelty shapes.

0:33:39 > 0:33:46- This is sort of fairly ordinary but then it's priced fairly fairly at £55.- Yes.

0:33:46 > 0:33:52To stand making a profit, we need to ask the gentleman for a slightly better price if you can.

0:33:52 > 0:33:58- What do you think?- I could do a little bit on it.- Can you do a little bit? Have a look.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01- Could you do...- You're going to squeeze me, aren't you?- Yes.

0:34:01 > 0:34:06- Er, £42.- £42?- And that would be the best.- What about a really nice round £40?

0:34:06 > 0:34:08- Is that any good?- £35?

0:34:08 > 0:34:12Throw in a kiss, ladies, I'll do it for £40. How about that? Is that all right?

0:34:12 > 0:34:14- £40!- Wow!

0:34:14 > 0:34:16- Yeah?- Lovely.- Yes.

0:34:16 > 0:34:20That can be yours, then. OK. I'm going to take my kiss.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24- Good luck.- Thank you.- Excellent.

0:34:24 > 0:34:29Crikey, ladies, you don't want to be giving away too many of those! You'll get a reputation.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32- All right. Shall we journey on? - Yes.- Yes.- Great.

0:34:32 > 0:34:35Are the Blues haggling with smackerooneys as well?

0:34:35 > 0:34:38Well, we'll have to find something they want to buy first.

0:34:38 > 0:34:40- I don't like them. Sorry.- Don't you?

0:34:40 > 0:34:43That is one scary-looking doll.

0:34:44 > 0:34:45Sam, what about these?

0:34:45 > 0:34:48- No, I hate them.- I think they're quite funky.

0:34:48 > 0:34:51- Grade of one to ten?- I'd say zero.

0:34:51 > 0:34:53- You hate them.- I hate them.- Do you?

0:34:53 > 0:34:55- Hello.- Oooh!

0:34:55 > 0:34:56Hello!

0:34:58 > 0:35:02- Wow! Look at those!- Oh, wow! - I like them!

0:35:02 > 0:35:04Yeah, we do like them! Oh!

0:35:04 > 0:35:07Now with those colours, why doesn't that quite surprise me?

0:35:07 > 0:35:14- I love them. Match my shoes! - You know, nothing would match those shoes.- They are lovely!

0:35:14 > 0:35:17- They're adorable.- Sam, I'm in love. I want these.- How much are they?

0:35:17 > 0:35:22- £55.- £55. Is that the best you can do?- No, they'll come down on that.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24- Right.- Depends how much.

0:35:24 > 0:35:26They're French.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29- Oh, and they've got a case as well? - And a case!- That's brilliant!

0:35:29 > 0:35:32- Let's have a look.- Oh, I love them. I'm in love.- What would be your best

0:35:32 > 0:35:33on those?

0:35:33 > 0:35:37- £45.- £45.- Oh!- OK.

0:35:37 > 0:35:41- I don't think there's a profit on them, though. - No, that's the problem.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43- But you love them.- I do love them.

0:35:44 > 0:35:48- OK.- There must be some eccentric out there that...

0:35:48 > 0:35:51Yeah, but she's in the Blue team and she's not going to buy them!

0:35:51 > 0:35:54- No, I can't buy them!- What do you think?- I want them, though.

0:35:54 > 0:36:02- I do want them. I think they're lovely.- Do you?- Yeah, but I think you have to have one item that...

0:36:02 > 0:36:05- Shall we just go for it? - I think we should.

0:36:05 > 0:36:11Well done, Blues, so that's one item each and 20 minutes used up so far.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14I'll tell you what I really love about them is your reaction.

0:36:14 > 0:36:19And I think if you react like that, I'm convinced that somebody else is going to.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22But can the Reds find something they both like?

0:36:22 > 0:36:26Do you like the little nine-carat heart pendant? No?

0:36:26 > 0:36:30They're quite commercial. People like wearing hearts at the moment.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32But not your sort of thing, Jenny?

0:36:32 > 0:36:37Shall we think about it, girls? You're not keen. Give it back to you for the moment.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Come and have a look inside the tent.

0:36:39 > 0:36:44Oh, dear. Kate can't persuade them. Is James doing any better with the Blues?

0:36:44 > 0:36:46- Come on, stockings.- This way.

0:36:48 > 0:36:52This was made around 1860-1870, out of boxwood

0:36:52 > 0:36:56and the little thing on the top there - what do you think that's for?

0:36:56 > 0:37:01- I have no idea.- OK. Any more clues? - No.- OK.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04- How about now?- Oh, you put cotton on it, like a little bobbin.

0:37:04 > 0:37:08Cotton, needles, thimble.

0:37:08 > 0:37:14- £22. I don't know. What would be your best on that?- £17.- £17.

0:37:14 > 0:37:18- £17.- What do you think?

0:37:18 > 0:37:20You're not impressed.

0:37:20 > 0:37:21- No.- No.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26Is £14 any good. Will you take £14?

0:37:26 > 0:37:28- Yes. Yes, I would.- Fantastic.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:37:30 > 0:37:33You really don't like it, do you?

0:37:33 > 0:37:36- Go for it.- Let's go for it. - Yeah?

0:37:36 > 0:37:38- We'll have it. Thank you.- Thank you.

0:37:38 > 0:37:43A bit of a disagreement in the Blue camp, but Pip was finally reeled in.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47That's two items in the bag for the Blues and only 20 minutes gone.

0:37:47 > 0:37:49- Onto the next!- Let's go.- Go, go!

0:37:49 > 0:37:52Are we going to go for something that's going to make a profit

0:37:52 > 0:37:53- or something that you love?- Profit.

0:37:53 > 0:37:57- A big profit. Massive, massive profit.- OK.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05That is... Let me have a little look.

0:38:07 > 0:38:12That's a nice little toiletry jar, which is quite nice.

0:38:12 > 0:38:19- It might be for your toothbrush or for your eau de toilette even.- Yes.

0:38:19 > 0:38:23This would have come out of a big travelling case,

0:38:23 > 0:38:26with lots of little silver accessories inside.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29So this is just one piece from the set.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32Lovely thing, though. Nice condition, isn't it?

0:38:32 > 0:38:35I think it's about 1920. It's hallmarked for London...

0:38:35 > 0:38:38- Oh... Done well, then.- Yes?

0:38:38 > 0:38:42I've had a little chat with the stallholder.

0:38:42 > 0:38:44On price she's come down to 25.

0:38:44 > 0:38:48- Oooh!- I've had to really twist her arm.- Right up her back!

0:38:48 > 0:38:49THEY LAUGH

0:38:49 > 0:38:52Feel that, there's quite a bit of silver in there.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54- What do you think?- Yes, definitely. - Definitely?

0:38:54 > 0:38:56- Yes.- No hesitation there.- No.

0:38:56 > 0:39:00- Great. Come on, girls, we're doing really well.- We know what we like.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02SHE GIGGLES

0:39:02 > 0:39:05Please keep an eye on the time, girls!

0:39:05 > 0:39:08- What next?- I think, because we're doing so well, guys,

0:39:08 > 0:39:10shall we have an ice cream break?

0:39:10 > 0:39:12Hell, yeah!

0:39:12 > 0:39:14- Can I just point something out? - Yeah.

0:39:14 > 0:39:16We've got to buy a bargain.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18Well, I want an ice cream, so... Do you?

0:39:18 > 0:39:2099 - bargain to me. Whoo!

0:39:20 > 0:39:22GIRLS GIGGLE

0:39:22 > 0:39:24- That's just monstrous.- Yeah.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26- OK.- Fantastic!

0:39:26 > 0:39:28And it's dripping, dripping with chocolate!

0:39:28 > 0:39:31- I'm not going to be able to hold anything now.- No!

0:39:31 > 0:39:35- This was a good idea, wasn't it? - Fantastic. Come on, let's look.

0:39:37 > 0:39:41OK. It's papier-mache.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44- Mm-hm.- It's made in 1860.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47It's inlaid with mother-of-pearl and abalone.

0:39:47 > 0:39:50Now, good points and bad points. Good - it's papier-mache,

0:39:50 > 0:39:52it's a tea caddy, it's 1860.

0:39:52 > 0:39:54Bad - hinges have been replaced.

0:39:55 > 0:39:58- Look at that.- Grimy. - Pretty, pretty tatty.

0:39:58 > 0:40:00OK.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03But papier-mache, because of the nature of it,

0:40:03 > 0:40:04is damaged easily.

0:40:04 > 0:40:08- 34...- What would be your best price?

0:40:08 > 0:40:11WOMAN: I can come down to £25 for you.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13- Oh!- £25.- For a tea caddy made out of papier-mache?

0:40:13 > 0:40:17- I think we can get £30 for that, don't you? £40?- I don't know.

0:40:17 > 0:40:20- Do you want to pass and come back? - I think so.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22- Put it back.- OK.- Let's move on.

0:40:22 > 0:40:26- Thank you.- Keep it in mind, but it might not be here when we come back.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28WOMAN: It's had a lot of interest, I must admit.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31- Has it?- You just want to put it down there...

0:40:31 > 0:40:32WOMAN: Ooh, no!

0:40:32 > 0:40:33THEY LAUGH

0:40:33 > 0:40:35WOMAN: Sorry!

0:40:35 > 0:40:37- Thank you.- Thank you. - Thanks, have a good day.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39How long have we got?

0:40:39 > 0:40:43We've got 15 minutes left. That ice cream break might have cost us.

0:40:43 > 0:40:45- So let's have a look. - Let's keep going, then.

0:40:45 > 0:40:50Ice cream, you scream, we all scream...for time is running out.

0:40:50 > 0:40:53Come on! Quick-quick!

0:40:53 > 0:40:54SHE GIGGLES

0:40:54 > 0:40:56We've literally got no time left, Pip.

0:40:56 > 0:41:00- What are we going to do, then?- Don't know. Got to find something, quick.

0:41:00 > 0:41:03Even the Reds have yet to pucker up for their last item.

0:41:03 > 0:41:07- £200 left, girls, and ten minutes to spend it.- Oh, no!

0:41:07 > 0:41:11We better get looking. Come on, let's put a spurt on, get going.

0:41:13 > 0:41:16I'm sensing not great enthusiasm.

0:41:16 > 0:41:17OK, girls.

0:41:17 > 0:41:22- Lovely ball gown. Look at that! Great colour, isn't it?- Wow!

0:41:22 > 0:41:25Hey, girls, what do you think of that?

0:41:25 > 0:41:27- I like that very much.- Yes.

0:41:27 > 0:41:29Do you know what it is?

0:41:29 > 0:41:31- A book case.- Yeah, absolutely.

0:41:31 > 0:41:35A book slide. And that extends out. There we go.

0:41:35 > 0:41:36To hold your books.

0:41:38 > 0:41:40It's oak, of course.

0:41:40 > 0:41:43Very much in the Victorian style.

0:41:43 > 0:41:47But I'd actually say it's probably a little bit later than that.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48What do you think?

0:41:48 > 0:41:51- Do you like it?- Yeah. Yeah, fine. - We'll see what he'll come down to.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Shall we? Shall we go and have a little chat with him?

0:41:54 > 0:41:55Let me just have a word.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57I like that.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59What could you do on that for us?

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Could you do £30? Just for us?

0:42:01 > 0:42:03- SELLER:- Yeah, go on.- Thank you.

0:42:03 > 0:42:06Brilliant. What do you think, girls? £30.

0:42:06 > 0:42:07- Lovely.- Oh, yes.

0:42:07 > 0:42:11- I think I would put £20-£30 on it.- Right.

0:42:11 > 0:42:15- So I don't think you're gonna make a fortune...- No, no. - ..but I think there's a chance.

0:42:15 > 0:42:19So it's up to you. I don't think we've got very much time left.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21In fact, we are in the last five minutes.

0:42:21 > 0:42:23- Oh!- Shall we go for it, then?

0:42:23 > 0:42:25Yes. Yeah.

0:42:25 > 0:42:29Running out of time, the Reds make a quick decision to buy the book slide for £28,

0:42:29 > 0:42:32while the Blues have decided to head back for the tea caddy.

0:42:32 > 0:42:36How long to go? Five minutes. So, £25?

0:42:39 > 0:42:42- Shall we go for it? - £24 - we might make a pound profit.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44It goes up in fives.

0:42:44 > 0:42:45- SELLER:- Go on, then, 24.

0:42:45 > 0:42:49- 24? Yes?- Go for it. - Yep, we'll go for it.- Deal.

0:42:49 > 0:42:50- SELLER:- Deal.- Thank you!

0:42:50 > 0:42:54- That ice cream put on the pressure, didn't it?- It did!

0:42:54 > 0:42:59Finally, time's up. Let's remind ourselves what the Reds bought.

0:43:00 > 0:43:03The silver vesta case was sealed with a kiss for £40.

0:43:06 > 0:43:11Will the Edwardian toiletry box leave them flush at the auction? Ha!

0:43:13 > 0:43:15And the Edwardian book slide

0:43:15 > 0:43:19may well extend their profit even further.

0:43:19 > 0:43:22- So, who's got the leftover lolly? - I have.- You have?- Yes.

0:43:22 > 0:43:25How much have you got here?

0:43:25 > 0:43:30- £207.- £207 of leftover lolly. Right.

0:43:30 > 0:43:32- Kate...- Hold on, there's more!

0:43:32 > 0:43:34THEY LAUGH

0:43:34 > 0:43:38Look at you! Come on, money bags! Get it out, as they say!

0:43:38 > 0:43:40That's mine!

0:43:40 > 0:43:41That's yours!

0:43:41 > 0:43:43Right, I'm off! Thank you very much!

0:43:43 > 0:43:46What are you going to do with it, before you go?

0:43:46 > 0:43:48Well, I might buy something quite expensive.

0:43:48 > 0:43:51Might you? Well, you've got enough cash to do it!

0:43:51 > 0:43:53- Good luck with that, Kate! - Good shopping!

0:43:53 > 0:43:58Let's remind ourselves what the Blues have bought.

0:43:58 > 0:44:01The girls went gaga for those French opera glasses.

0:44:04 > 0:44:07The treen bodkin was stitched up for £14.

0:44:10 > 0:44:14And just in the nick of time, they bought this 19th century tea caddy.

0:44:16 > 0:44:18Pip, what's your favourite piece?

0:44:18 > 0:44:22- Binoculars!- Binoculars? - Yep. Mine's the binoculars, too.

0:44:22 > 0:44:25And which is gonna bring the biggest profit, do you think?

0:44:25 > 0:44:27Um, the middle item. The bobbin.

0:44:27 > 0:44:29The wooden bobbin.

0:44:29 > 0:44:30Right. Well remembered.

0:44:30 > 0:44:32You get ten points for that!

0:44:32 > 0:44:34THEY LAUGH High-five!

0:44:34 > 0:44:38- I don't mind.- Oh!- We can do that! - I want one, too!

0:44:38 > 0:44:40- Oh, you want one, too! - Don't leave me out!

0:44:40 > 0:44:41THEY LAUGH

0:44:41 > 0:44:44- Quickly, give him the leftover lolly...- There you are, James.

0:44:44 > 0:44:47..or we'll get too thoroughly excited.

0:44:56 > 0:44:59Well, we're at Guilding's saleroom Market Harborough with

0:44:59 > 0:45:03- John Guilding, the man himself. How lovely to see you.- Hello, Tim.

0:45:03 > 0:45:06First up for our Reds is the vesta case.

0:45:06 > 0:45:09One bruised, worn, very, very sad example.

0:45:09 > 0:45:12Of the most bog-standard type, too.

0:45:12 > 0:45:15I have to tell you that they paid £40 for it.

0:45:15 > 0:45:17- Sorry.- What?

0:45:17 > 0:45:21That was a lot of money for a little vesta case,

0:45:21 > 0:45:23- it's...tired. - Bruised and tired, absolutely.

0:45:23 > 0:45:27- What's your best estimate on that, John?- £10-20.- £10-£20, they paid 40.

0:45:27 > 0:45:30- Not a good start.- I'm afraid not.

0:45:30 > 0:45:35Next up is this toilet box, which looks as if it's all silver, right?

0:45:35 > 0:45:38But the top is made of silver and the bottom is made of plate.

0:45:38 > 0:45:39Exactly.

0:45:39 > 0:45:42- What's your estimate then? - £40-£60.- Is it?- Yes.

0:45:42 > 0:45:44You're a brave man, John.

0:45:44 > 0:45:46- I know.- They paid £25.

0:45:46 > 0:45:48There we go.

0:45:48 > 0:45:51And their third item is this oak book slide.

0:45:51 > 0:45:54- Some of these are really top notch, aren't they?- Yes.

0:45:54 > 0:45:57Great hinges, wonderful quality mounts and all the rest of it.

0:45:57 > 0:46:00This thing looks as if it was cut out by an amateur.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02How much do you think that's worth?

0:46:02 > 0:46:07We've put an estimate on that of £30-£50, which I think is plenty.

0:46:07 > 0:46:09They paid £28.

0:46:09 > 0:46:11- That's pretty good. - Pretty good, isn't it?

0:46:11 > 0:46:13We gave the team £300 to spend,

0:46:13 > 0:46:17they haven't bought anything that's of any quality,

0:46:17 > 0:46:21on that basis, they're gonna need their bonus buy, so let's go have a look at it.

0:46:21 > 0:46:24I've bought you a little occasional table,

0:46:24 > 0:46:28which folds up and then stands up like so,

0:46:28 > 0:46:30and I thought it was rather nice,

0:46:30 > 0:46:33because it's very much in the Art Nouveau style.

0:46:33 > 0:46:36It is period, I believe, it's Edwardian,

0:46:36 > 0:46:39dates from the early part of the 20th century.

0:46:39 > 0:46:43And you've got this beautiful, typically Art Nouveau design on the top.

0:46:43 > 0:46:44How much did you pay for it?

0:46:44 > 0:46:48I paid...£40.

0:46:48 > 0:46:51- Really?- Wonderful! - That was a bargain.

0:46:51 > 0:46:52Mmm!

0:46:52 > 0:46:55- That's very encouraging, Kate, isn't it?- Very encouraging!

0:46:55 > 0:47:00For the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer's estimate is on Kate's table.

0:47:00 > 0:47:02Yes, I like that, it's of its period,

0:47:02 > 0:47:05good stencilled top and not a lot of damage

0:47:05 > 0:47:08and I put it in at £50-£70.

0:47:08 > 0:47:11Kate will be delighted, she only paid £40 for it.

0:47:11 > 0:47:15- The other nice thing is, you can just tuck it away like that. - Exactly.

0:47:15 > 0:47:17That's it for the Reds, now for the Blues.

0:47:17 > 0:47:18Sam and Pip.

0:47:18 > 0:47:21Their first item are the opera glasses.

0:47:21 > 0:47:23Are they worth anything, do you think?

0:47:23 > 0:47:29There seems to be people around who collect these things and they make between £40 and £60.

0:47:29 > 0:47:31Yeah. £45, the team paid.

0:47:31 > 0:47:37What about this accumulation of sewing equipment, none of which is much cop, I suspect.

0:47:37 > 0:47:41No, I don't quite know where you found that, Tim.

0:47:41 > 0:47:44Not personally, not at all.

0:47:44 > 0:47:49It's not of any great value at all, there's nothing complimentary I can say about it.

0:47:49 > 0:47:51You'd be lucky to get to £20.

0:47:51 > 0:47:55Yes. £14, they paid. So it's not much hope there.

0:47:55 > 0:47:57I'm afraid there's not much hope.

0:47:57 > 0:48:03And lastly is the papier-mache tea caddy, which has to be one of the worst of its type.

0:48:03 > 0:48:06Isn't it? I mean, chipped, grazed,

0:48:06 > 0:48:09and the most appalling hinge work on it, look,

0:48:09 > 0:48:12these crudely nailed in things.

0:48:12 > 0:48:15I think, originally, it was quite a nice piece.

0:48:15 > 0:48:16- Really?- Yes.

0:48:16 > 0:48:20But it's been well used, badly looked after...

0:48:20 > 0:48:25- Abused, even.- Abused. And as you say, very poor attempt to be restored.

0:48:25 > 0:48:28£20-£30, Tim, do you think?

0:48:28 > 0:48:29If you're lucky, they paid £24.

0:48:29 > 0:48:34They're gonna be in trouble, and need their bonus buys. Let's have a look.

0:48:34 > 0:48:39- If you were a pair of budding proctologists...- Budding what?

0:48:39 > 0:48:41Proctologists.

0:48:41 > 0:48:43- Proctologists?- Ploptologists?

0:48:43 > 0:48:47- I don't understand what they are. - Those would be what you're looking for.

0:48:48 > 0:48:50What are they?

0:48:50 > 0:48:53- What do you think they are? - Are they weights?- No.

0:48:53 > 0:48:54- No idea.- They're moulds.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56Take it apart.

0:48:56 > 0:48:58There we are, you see...

0:48:58 > 0:48:59- They make nails or...- bullets?

0:48:59 > 0:49:01- Bullets?- Bullets!- Bullets!

0:49:01 > 0:49:05Yes, but not that type of bullet.

0:49:05 > 0:49:08Not the type of bullets you'd put in a gun.

0:49:08 > 0:49:09- Drugs?- Drugs.

0:49:09 > 0:49:12- Drug bullets? - Yes. Where would you put them?

0:49:12 > 0:49:14- In your mouth. - No, other end!

0:49:14 > 0:49:15Ew!

0:49:18 > 0:49:21- They're not!- They are. - It's a suppository maker!

0:49:21 > 0:49:22They are suppository moulds.

0:49:22 > 0:49:27- How unusual!- But they're 19th century, they're lacquered brass, they're wonderful quality!

0:49:27 > 0:49:30- How much did you pay? - I paid a fortune, they're rare.

0:49:30 > 0:49:32How much? £10.

0:49:32 > 0:49:34Bargain!

0:49:34 > 0:49:35- Yeah?- That's a bargain, yeah.

0:49:35 > 0:49:39- I think they're great.- How much do you think they'll make? - Oh, hundreds!

0:49:39 > 0:49:41- Really?- No.

0:49:41 > 0:49:43- £30-£40?- That's OK.

0:49:43 > 0:49:47- I like them, I like them. - You like them?- I like them. - Bottom bullets.- I like them.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51You've got a way with words, Pip, haven't you?

0:49:51 > 0:49:56And for a £10 note, your expert has found you these suppository moulds.

0:49:56 > 0:49:58For the viewers at home,

0:49:58 > 0:50:04let's find out from the auctioneer whether the bottom has dropped out of this market.

0:50:04 > 0:50:09Well, they're obviously pharmaceutical moulds of some sort.

0:50:09 > 0:50:11How much do you think they're worth, John?

0:50:11 > 0:50:15I don't know what they're worth, I'll guess in this instance.

0:50:15 > 0:50:19- £30-£50.- The big question is, are the team gonna go with it or not?

0:50:19 > 0:50:22We'll find out in a moment in the auction,

0:50:22 > 0:50:24- and you're taking the sale, aren't you?- I am indeed.

0:50:24 > 0:50:2770, 5, 80, 5.

0:50:27 > 0:50:3090, 5. 100. 10. 20.

0:50:30 > 0:50:3330, 40, 50.

0:50:33 > 0:50:3560. Selling now at 60.

0:50:35 > 0:50:40So, girls. Jen-Jen. Feeling good?

0:50:40 > 0:50:41Absolutely.

0:50:41 > 0:50:44- Are you?- Only about two of the items, not one of them.

0:50:44 > 0:50:48What item do you predict there's going to be a problem about?

0:50:48 > 0:50:49The little vesta one.

0:50:49 > 0:50:51The auctioneer's estimate is £10-£20,

0:50:51 > 0:50:55Kate found it, she loved it, she paid £40 for it.

0:50:55 > 0:50:58I sincerely hope he's wrong and you're right, Kate.

0:50:58 > 0:51:01It's in the luck of the draw. Here it comes.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05Bidding starts with me on commission at £10,

0:51:05 > 0:51:08I'm bid at 12, 12, 14, at 16, at 16.

0:51:08 > 0:51:10At 18? You're out in 20,

0:51:10 > 0:51:12are you bidding? 22.

0:51:12 > 0:51:1622, 22, 22, you're out on the deck, 22, the bid's in the room.

0:51:16 > 0:51:18£22, I'm bid £24,

0:51:18 > 0:51:2024, 26, 26, 28,

0:51:20 > 0:51:2428, 28, 30. 31 32, 32, 32, 34.

0:51:24 > 0:51:2736, 36, 38, 38, 38, 40.

0:51:27 > 0:51:2940 am I bid, 42, 42, 44.

0:51:29 > 0:51:30Look at that!

0:51:33 > 0:51:36- Bought and sold at £46 and away. - BANGS GAVEL

0:51:36 > 0:51:38- Wow, look at that!- Yay!

0:51:38 > 0:51:41Everybody is eating words, here.

0:51:41 > 0:51:42Well done, Kate.

0:51:42 > 0:51:43Plus £6, that's super.

0:51:43 > 0:51:46- It doesn't happen very often! - Now, the toilet box.

0:51:46 > 0:51:47Here it is.

0:51:47 > 0:51:50From the toilet bottle jars,

0:51:50 > 0:51:52I'm bid at ten, do I see ten, 12,

0:51:52 > 0:51:5412, on the net at 12.

0:51:54 > 0:51:56Commission's a loss. 14 in the room.

0:51:56 > 0:51:5914, better bid, 14, better bid, 14, do I have 16?

0:51:59 > 0:52:0018 if you like.

0:52:00 > 0:52:0518, 18, bid 18? You're out.

0:52:05 > 0:52:07At £18, I'm bid, it's in the room.

0:52:07 > 0:52:10All done, selling it away at £18, all done.

0:52:10 > 0:52:14That's cheap enough, isn't it? Sorry, darling. £18.

0:52:14 > 0:52:18That's minus £7, which means, overall, you're minus one at the moment.

0:52:18 > 0:52:21£50?

0:52:21 > 0:52:24£20, thank you, at £20 in, no reserve. At £20, I'm bid.

0:52:24 > 0:52:28£20, I'm bid. Do I see two, quickly? This is for peanuts. 22 standing.

0:52:28 > 0:52:30At 22, I'm bid 22.

0:52:30 > 0:52:34At 22, bid 22, 22, do I see four anywhere?

0:52:34 > 0:52:38At £22, I'm waiting. It sells, then, at £22.

0:52:38 > 0:52:44£22, you're minus £6 on that. Overall you're minus seven.

0:52:44 > 0:52:47Like I said, not many profits, not many losses.

0:52:47 > 0:52:51- Well done for that, Kate. - Yeah.- What are you going to do about this folding table?

0:52:51 > 0:52:54You're minus seven - could be a winning score.

0:52:54 > 0:52:57- Will you risk it?- We're going to go for it.- You are?

0:52:57 > 0:53:00Well, you've made your decision, and it's coming up now.

0:53:00 > 0:53:04What would you like to say for that? There's lots of bids on the book.

0:53:04 > 0:53:08I have to start the bidding at £55 and you're all out.

0:53:08 > 0:53:1460, five, 70, five, you're still out. It's with me at £75.

0:53:14 > 0:53:17At 75, I'm bid, 75, do I see 80 anywhere?

0:53:17 > 0:53:19Sold at £75.

0:53:19 > 0:53:23- Well done, Kate.- £75, you are £35 up.

0:53:23 > 0:53:26£35 worth of profit. Isn't that brilliant?

0:53:26 > 0:53:29- Well done, girls. - No, you did that! You!

0:53:29 > 0:53:32- Which means, overall, you are plus 28.- Oh!

0:53:32 > 0:53:37So, not only could that be a winning score, but you're certainly going home with money.

0:53:37 > 0:53:39Whoo-hoo!

0:53:39 > 0:53:43- Next up, don't tell the Blues a thing, all right?- All right. - Not a word.- Promise.- Very good.

0:53:43 > 0:53:46- We'll reveal all in a moment.- OK.

0:53:51 > 0:53:55- Feeling good, guys?- Yes.- Yeah? Have you talked to the Reds?

0:53:55 > 0:53:58- No.- No.- That's great, you don't know anything about anything.

0:53:58 > 0:54:01You both found, together, the lovely pink opera glasses.

0:54:01 > 0:54:04- Yes.- Which are a crazy colour. - Beautiful.

0:54:04 > 0:54:06I've never seen pink ones - ever, ever.

0:54:06 > 0:54:10I've seen ivory, the occasional green, but never in pink.

0:54:10 > 0:54:15Really strange. The auctioneer loves them - he's put £40 to £60 on them, so you should do quite well.

0:54:15 > 0:54:18They are the first lot coming up, and here they come.

0:54:18 > 0:54:21Lovely little pair of French opera glasses, here. What will you say?

0:54:21 > 0:54:24£60? £20 and no reserve.

0:54:24 > 0:54:29The bid's on at 22, 22, 24, 26, 26, 26, 26, eight.

0:54:29 > 0:54:31£28, I'm bid. 28, any more?

0:54:31 > 0:54:34At 30, £30, I'm bid, 35, 38 in the room.

0:54:34 > 0:54:36£38 I'm bid.

0:54:36 > 0:54:40£40 on the net. At £40, I'm bid 40, £40 on the net.

0:54:40 > 0:54:42At £40, I'm bid. Five anywhere?

0:54:42 > 0:54:46- Oh, five. 45 in the room.- Yes!

0:54:46 > 0:54:50At 45, 50. At 50, bid five. 55.

0:54:50 > 0:54:5255, you're in profit. Look at that.

0:54:52 > 0:54:57At 55, it's standing in the room at 55, all done? Sold away at £55.

0:54:57 > 0:54:59THEY SQUEAL

0:54:59 > 0:55:04£55 - plus £10. That's a high level of excitement.

0:55:04 > 0:55:07Here comes the bodkin.

0:55:07 > 0:55:08£2 for those, no reserve.
