0:00:02 > 0:00:06We may not have the sun, sea and sand, but we have got £600,
0:00:06 > 0:00:10two teams, two experts and loads of excitement and, of course, moi.
0:00:10 > 0:00:13So, let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Today, we're at the Oswestry Showground,
0:00:44 > 0:00:47nestling on the Welsh/English border.
0:00:47 > 0:00:53Oswestry was the birthplace of the great war poet Wilfred Owen
0:00:53 > 0:01:00and also that other cunning linguist the Reverend Spooner went to school up the road here.
0:01:00 > 0:01:06Known for mixing up his words, allegedly he once toasted Queen Victoria,
0:01:06 > 0:01:11not as the dear old Queen but as the queer old dean.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16On Bargain Hunt today, we have a real battle on our hands. Coming up...
0:01:19 > 0:01:24It's all going swimmingly for the Blues...
0:01:24 > 0:01:27while the Reds stare disaster in the face.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Oh, no.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31What are we going to buy now?
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Come on. We should be running a bit more.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39But who gets it right at the auction?
0:01:39 > 0:01:42We all forgive you, Charles. We're all wrong and you're right.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46The rules are simple. With £300 at their disposal, the teams have just one hour
0:01:46 > 0:01:52to find three items with an eye to making a profit when they're sold at auction.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57And our experts on hand to help them today
0:01:57 > 0:02:01are Charles Hanson for the Reds and Jonathan Pratt for the Blues.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04They'll be busy, as they'll be helping
0:02:04 > 0:02:07not one but two pairs of Reds and Blues today.
0:02:07 > 0:02:12So, today, for the Reds, we've got good friends Laura and Catherine.
0:02:12 > 0:02:17And we have Michael and Michelle, who are partners, for the Blues.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Now, Laura, how did you two first meet?
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Me and Catherine met in the chip shop at uni, in the first week of freshers' week.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Get away.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26In the chip shop?
0:02:26 > 0:02:27In the chip shop.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Well, it obviously had quite a cementing effect.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- Yeah.- We bonded over some chips.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Awesome, as they say. Awesome. What are you studying?
0:02:37 > 0:02:40We both study maths at uni, both of us study maths. Yeah.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44That means you're going to be good with the money on Bargain Hunt. Is that right, Laura?
0:02:44 > 0:02:48We hope so. I wouldn't go that far but we hope so. Yeah.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Now, Catherine, what sort of winning qualities do you think you've got?
0:02:51 > 0:02:56Well, we both love a shop so, you know, that's going to get us some bargains.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58We've a great eye for a bargain.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- We do love the sales.- Do you?
0:03:00 > 0:03:05Yeah. And obviously, you know, hopefully we'll make a bit of a profit with the old maths in there.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10- Definitely. What about collections, what sort of things do you collect? - I collect Buddhas.
0:03:10 > 0:03:15- Buddhas.- Yeah.- What do you like about them? Fat ones with the round tummies?- I like fat and skinny ones.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17- Fat and skinny ones. - I like them all. Yeah.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- You're not prejudiced, then.- No. All Buddhas.- All Buddhas.- Definitely.
0:03:20 > 0:03:24- As long as they're sitting there, squatting down, they're for you. - Exactly.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- Are you going to go for a Buddha if you come across one today? - If I see one, I'll be very happy.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Yeah. What do you really fancy, the fat one or the thin one, today?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- Do you think you'd go for a fatty or a thinny?- A fat one.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39All right. I think you're going to do very well. In fact, I think it's going to be awesome.
0:03:39 > 0:03:44- Now, Blues... Now, Michael, how long have you known Michelle for?- Known each other for about three years.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Been together for most of that.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50- We're both newly proud parents of...- Are you?- Yeah.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52..of a lovely little girl called Ava.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55- How old's Ava? - She's three and a half months, now.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57- Tiny.- Congratulations.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01- Thank you very much.- Cos you used to be a bit wild, you two, didn't you?
0:04:01 > 0:04:02Afraid to say yeah, you know...
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- Occasionally. - ..in our heyday, we was. Yeah.
0:04:05 > 0:04:10I mean, at one time I woke up, I think about eight o'clock in the morning, fully dressed, in the bath.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13- With the water in the bath?- Yeah.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- Fine.- We never figured it out why we were actually in there.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- You were both in there?- Yeah.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20Are you looking for anything in particular?
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Something that's pretty, something probably like a perfume bottle,
0:04:23 > 0:04:26maybe a writing set, something that catches my eye.
0:04:26 > 0:04:31All right. Brilliant. Well, we have two teams who have attitude, today. Now, the money moment. £300 apiece.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33There's your £300. You know the rules.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37Your experts await. And off you go. And very, very, very good luck.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41So, just one hour for the teams to find their three items.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44Looks like the Reds have found something they like already.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- I actually like that.- Is it your stool, sir? Is it your stool?
0:04:49 > 0:04:51- It is my stool. Yes.- Very nice.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Does it go back to your heyday?
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- No. No. No. No.- Tell me its history. Tell me about it.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00The history of this stool, it came from a house clearance,
0:05:00 > 0:05:02and it is 1950s.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07It was black, dirty and it's all been cleaned up.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09- Yeah.- And put up for sale. - Very retro, isn't it?
0:05:09 > 0:05:10- What do you think?- I quite like it.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13- I think it's cool.- I think it's got style, hasn't it? Yeah.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Definitely got style. - What do you think, Laura? Yeah. Catherine?- Yeah. Yeah.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Yeah.- We think it's a goer. - It's quite stylish.- Yeah.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23It's the sort of object which could either fly or falter...
0:05:23 > 0:05:27it depends. You know, if you like a gamble, it's only £23.
0:05:27 > 0:05:33- I'm sure there's a discount, sir, isn't there?- Yes. Yes. I can go down to 20.- £20.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37So it's not bad, is it, really? OK. What's it worth in the saleroom? It could make 10, 25.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40It's a lot which really is a gamble, but, you know, you girls are modern,
0:05:40 > 0:05:43you know, you're young, you're funky and all that.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45You know, you funky chicks and all that, eh. Come on.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49- We'll think about it. - Once you're in the saleroom, you never can tell.- Exactly.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- You're quite right, sir. Yeah. - OK. Thank you.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Nice object. I like it. Yeah.
0:05:53 > 0:06:00While the Reds walk away from an object they like, something stylish has caught the eye of the Blues.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03That's exactly what I was thinking of.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06It's got a mark on it, as well.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Just make sure it doesn't fall out...
0:06:10 > 0:06:13It's strikingly deco. You've got the contrast.
0:06:13 > 0:06:14The black against the glass.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Is there a chip on this side?
0:06:16 > 0:06:20But the mark is very worn.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25It's got the shape of the shield that suggests it's actually early
0:06:25 > 0:06:28cos that shape runs from Birmingham or London.
0:06:28 > 0:06:33That shape runs to about 1916 or 1920. Obviously, '20s is Art Deco.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36- That is rather pretty. - I actually really like that.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Will these chips make a difference at auction or not?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Yes. You know, condition's everything.
0:06:41 > 0:06:46Because of that chip, could we get a couple of extra pounds knocked off?
0:06:46 > 0:06:4722. £25 is it?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50It's 30, I'll do it for 25.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51OK. £25. Shall we go for that, then?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- Definitely.- Yeah. You like it.
0:06:53 > 0:06:59- You like it.- OK, we'll go for that, then. Lovely.- Thank you.- That's one we've got. Fantastic.- Lovely.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00One down. Two to go.
0:07:00 > 0:07:05So, a quick decision by the Blues. £25 for the scent bottle and only ten minutes gone.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10Now, Charles Hanson has found something for the Reds.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12It's a bit tired but look at these lovely drawings inside.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17And there's all sorts of lovely... "Just room for two." Isn't it sweet?
0:07:17 > 0:07:21Just really sweet, like you two. Just room for two, eh?
0:07:21 > 0:07:24With me here as well, it's a bit of a squeeze, really.
0:07:24 > 0:07:25I'm coping just about. Have a think?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Yeah. Yeah.- We'll think about it.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33- Thanks very much.- Thank you very much.- Thank you very much, madam.
0:07:33 > 0:07:38It's all very well having a think, girls, but you do need to buy something sooner or later.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42Will Charles' next find tempt them to splash the cash?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44I like this, if you swing round.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46I'll just show you this.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49A manger?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Is it a...manger?
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Yeah. It is. Little cradle.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56It's laminated. It's oak.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58It's quite a sweet piece of wood, isn't it, really?
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Not very old. Probably as old as you or me, you know.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05No more than 30 or 40 years old. Just a nice novelty piece of treen.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08You think of doll collectors, you know,
0:08:08 > 0:08:11you think of people who like teddy bears and things.
0:08:11 > 0:08:16It's a nice little cradle which might appeal to a collector, which rocks of course, as well.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Have a guess how much I can buy it for. £12. Cheap.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20That is cheap. That is cheap.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Some really good silver here.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Some lovely silver buttons down here.
0:08:26 > 0:08:27They're in the case.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31- About 1904. I quite like them. - They are quite cute.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35They, to me, are quality. When it comes to antique, they are antique.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Do you think it'd make a good profit?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- How much are they?- They're on at 95.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- 95.- If you can buy them for perhaps, between...
0:08:43 > 0:08:47- 60 and 80, bit of a discount, there will be a chance. - That's a lot of a discount.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51Yeah, it is, but they're good quality and, to me, going to the auction house at Shrewsbury,
0:08:51 > 0:08:53they could do quite well.
0:08:53 > 0:08:58- Yeah, cos you've got to think where we're selling it. - Exactly. Yeah. Hey, look, hey.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00See, I should be running this show.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04What you should be doing is thinking about splashing some cash.
0:09:04 > 0:09:10With 30 minutes gone and nothing bought by the Reds, it's time to get into gear, girls.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Aren't these good fun, look.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Knowing how much you girls like your drink, eh?
0:09:14 > 0:09:16There you go. You've got two bartenders.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19- I do like them, the bartender. - Aren't they good fun, the bartender.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22They must be...what age? 1960s, '70s.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24They're quite collectable.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27- They're very good. - I like those, you know.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31Hello, sir. Sir, how much are the two little bartenders, please?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33They're £15 each.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36There we go. They're fun, aren't they, at £15 each?
0:09:36 > 0:09:39It's more novelty, it's more their fun value, but at auction,
0:09:39 > 0:09:43there is this great novelty and nostalgic value for these collectables.
0:09:43 > 0:09:48- So, again, it's a thought to take onboard.- Yeah.- Let's go.- OK.
0:09:48 > 0:09:53- OK. Thank you very much.- Thank you. - Thanks.- Right. Let's keep going.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Oh, Charles, what are you doing?
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Remember the point of this programme is to actually buy stuff.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Meanwhile, the Blues are looking much cooler.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- What do you think of the little brooch?- Yeah.- I think it's American. - Yes. It's Corocraft.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14What about the Corocraft...?
0:10:14 > 0:10:18It's nice quality, stamped Sterling. It's got a name on the back. Says Corocraft.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Yeah. How much is it?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22- 55.- 55.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- And that's your best price?- 50.
0:10:24 > 0:10:2750 would be better. OK.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- Let's buy this now, the brooch. - Definitely.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- OK.- And then we don't have to panic,
0:10:32 > 0:10:36legging it back to get it, so I think if we do that now, sort it out nice and clean,
0:10:36 > 0:10:39got one more item to find, 18 minutes. Perfect. OK.
0:10:39 > 0:10:40- Yeah.- Happy with that?
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Definitely. Thank you very much. - Thanks very much.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47Perhaps Charles can take a leaf out of Jonathan's book.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Nice big doll's house, there.
0:10:50 > 0:10:55The aim of the game might be entertainment but winning is what it's all about.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57You really want to win, don't you?
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Look at this, here. Isn't that wonderful?
0:11:00 > 0:11:02I quite like that.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05The little...
0:11:05 > 0:11:06- dressing box?- Yeah.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10- That's kind of fun. - I think that's really nice.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13I'll just keep picking things...
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- Yeah. That's cool, you're right. - How much is that?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18It is 45.
0:11:18 > 0:11:24- £45. The way the case is made, and the look of the metal...- Yeah.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- ..you know it's not leather and it's not silver.- Yeah.
0:11:27 > 0:11:28But it's tried to look like that.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32Essentially, it's a lady's dressing box. You're carting all your makeup around in a bag.
0:11:32 > 0:11:37- Very handy for anything.- You can bung it all in one little travel box.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40It says 45. What's your best price?
0:11:40 > 0:11:41We could do that for 30.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- 25 quid.- Yeah. That's fine. 25.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46I would want to have a little look round, first.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Can we keep this and come back to it?
0:11:48 > 0:11:54- Would you hang on to this for us? - Certainly.- OK. She's not going to sell it.
0:11:55 > 0:12:00While the Blues decide to keep looking, the Reds have finally decided to buy their first item.
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- Here they are. Here's the... - 12 minutes. OK. That's four minutes per item.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- OK.- Get in there and do your stuff, please.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09What is your best on these?
0:12:09 > 0:12:1225. 25's the very best.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- 23?- I think that's a very reasonable discount.- Do we think?
0:12:15 > 0:12:16I do.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19£25 for the pair.
0:12:19 > 0:12:24- OK.- You're really not happy.- No. No. No. No.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27I like you. OK. So, thank you very much.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Are you thinking the set we went for?
0:12:29 > 0:12:31The best one.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33You really want that set, don't you?
0:12:33 > 0:12:35- Go on, then.- I have good taste.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- It'd do well. £25.- £25.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- Bargain.- OK.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- Thanks.- OK, guys. Ten minutes.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Come on. On it, please. On it.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Right then, buttons. I really hope that woman goes down to 70 on them buttons.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51- Well, I think the buttons are good. - And the stool.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53I can see them doing quite well.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Well, we're going with you on them buttons.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59OK. If they don't do well, you know who we're going to be after.
0:12:59 > 0:13:04- All right. - Actually, for the first ever time, I am really scared of that.- Yeah.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Here are the buttons.
0:13:06 > 0:13:11We've seen the nice Chester-hallmarked, 1904, case of buttons.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Oh, yes.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16My team quite like them.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18I like them. What's your absolute best price?
0:13:18 > 0:13:21I've got 95 on them.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- Yes.- I'll do them at 80.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26I think they're lovely.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30My guide price in a saleroom would be between £70 and £100.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36- Yeah. Shall we get them? - Yeah. Go for it, I think. - Thank you very much. Yes. I'm happy.
0:13:36 > 0:13:41- Thank you.- Thank you, sir.- And the box is...thanks.- Thank you.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43With less than five minutes left,
0:13:43 > 0:13:48Michelle makes an executive decision to go back for the travelling set. And who can blame her?
0:13:51 > 0:13:53I'm just going to get it.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Hello, there. Have you still got the set?
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- The what, madam?- The...- Yes.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- Yeah.- All it is is that inside that goes with it.
0:14:04 > 0:14:09- So it doesn't get broken when you're carrying it along.- So, £25. - That's it, love.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11- Well, thank you very much. - Thanking you.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13That's a deal.
0:14:13 > 0:14:14Thank you.
0:14:15 > 0:14:20Yes, Michelle. It really is that simple. Deal done and all three items bought
0:14:20 > 0:14:22in the nick of time for the Blues.
0:14:22 > 0:14:27With the pressure on, the Reds decide to go back for that stool they saw right at the start.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31I liked the stool. I would buy that.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33I think it's cute.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Three minutes now.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37No. You're lying.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Look, he's trying to make us run.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Right, come on, Catherine. You can do this.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Here again!
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Is your stool gone?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50I sold them. I'm sorry.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52The stool's been sold?
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Yeah. You never made a firm decision.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55What are we going to do?
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- You lost the stool.- Yeah. Can we have the books, please? - We want the books.
0:14:58 > 0:15:03- Let's have a look at the books. Come on. See you in a minute. - Thank you. We'll see you later.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Bye.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08I loved that stool.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11See, I knew that would have been snatched up.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13A little popular item.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Hello, madam, hi.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18We like your albums very much. OK.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20We think you look fantastic in your outfit.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22OK. We're hoping we can sweet-talk you...
0:15:22 > 0:15:24We've got about three minutes to go.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28- I'm in trouble because we missed a stool earlier on, didn't I?- Yeah.
0:15:28 > 0:15:35So I'm hoping I can somehow make up for it by maybe negotiating a good price for your albums.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38- What are you thinking? - I was thinking about...
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- £30.- It'll have to be a bit more than that.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43- Really?- 35.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- That's not bad, is it?- 35. 35.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47A bit less, perhaps 30?
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- Can't do less than that.- 33?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53I really am in such deep trouble, you see. I really have...
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Got to be 35. I'm sorry.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57- Got to be. That's fair enough.- OK.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00Oh, Charles.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04It's either 35 or the cot...
0:16:04 > 0:16:05at 12. The cradle.
0:16:05 > 0:16:11Now, personally, my investment to say to you, profit, is the cradle.
0:16:11 > 0:16:16You don't like the cradle, I know that, but if you like these, you go for these. OK.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Shall we go for the cradle?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21I can't believe...
0:16:21 > 0:16:25- That's a low point in life. - Oh, we'll go for your cradle.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27Just number one to shut you up.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Number two because we can't make as big a loss on the...
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Oh, fine, the cradle, I can't believe I'm saying this...
0:16:33 > 0:16:35- Thank you very much.- Bye.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37Thank you very much. Thank you.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Oh, my God.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43Look, he's so happy that he's got his way with the cradle.
0:16:43 > 0:16:48I bet he's bought the stool, himself.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Come on, we should be running a bit more.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53- Hold on.- There's sold on it.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Is £4 OK, madam?
0:16:58 > 0:17:00- Pardon.- Is £4 OK with you?- Yeah.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05How proud you are.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07He's bragging with the cradle.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10- Is it OK?- Yeah. Deal. Deal. It's on.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Now, look, we are united, aren't we?
0:17:12 > 0:17:15We're going to auction now with three good objects.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18If you get us money, we'll be friends again.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- OK. OK.- And if it makes us money...
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Thank you very, very much.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25You've made my day. Thank you.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28He's so happy with that cradle.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30I've never felt such pressure in my life... I tell you.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35It is your reputation that will be on the line at the auction, Charles.
0:17:35 > 0:17:42With every second of their time used up, let's remind ourselves of what the Reds eventually bought.
0:17:42 > 0:17:43Last orders, please.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46And it nearly was, considering these model barmen
0:17:46 > 0:17:48were bought with ten minutes to go.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51The buttons pushed everyone's buttons at £80...
0:17:51 > 0:17:53but most controversially,
0:17:53 > 0:17:57the girls were cornered into buying Charles' choice, the doll's cradle.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Listen, how much did you spend, actually?
0:18:03 > 0:18:09- £117.- £117. That means I want £183 of leftover lolly...
0:18:09 > 0:18:11- Here it is. - ..which you just happen to...
0:18:11 > 0:18:13Cor, look at all those... look at all that lot.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16How do you walk around with all that weight round your wrist?
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- It does weigh my arm down a little bit.- Just a little bit.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20That goes straight across to Charles Hanson.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24- It's in very safe hands. - No more cradles.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28Now, they don't call Charles Hanson the young pretender for nothing.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Right.- Quite right.- So what pretence are you up to today then, Carlos?
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Tim, for the first time, I really don't know.
0:18:34 > 0:18:39I'm normally very creative but having the hour we've had, which was really quite daunting,
0:18:39 > 0:18:45I think it's got to be quality, it's got to be good, which is going to be interesting.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49- And challenging.- I can't wait. - Yeah. Well, you've had a great team with you.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54- I have.- But right now, why don't we check out what the Blues have bought, eh?
0:18:54 > 0:18:59The first item they sniffed out was this Art Deco scent bottle.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Will this birdie brooch have wings in the saleroom?
0:19:02 > 0:19:06And finally, this lady's not for turning.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08The travelling set caught Michelle's eye
0:19:08 > 0:19:11and no-one could stop her sealing the deal.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14How much did you spend?
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Only £100, I'm afraid.
0:19:16 > 0:19:21- How much?- It was our bargaining skills. They were fantastic, today.
0:19:21 > 0:19:26- £100 on three items.- Yeah. - That's pathetic, that is. £200 then, please.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- £200.- Goes straight to Jonathan.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31I don't often get to see £200 in my hand...
0:19:31 > 0:19:36- No, quite.- I think I might just go for it.- In real life or on the television. Very good luck.
0:19:42 > 0:19:48Well, it's great to be with our expert at Halls Auction Room, in Shrewsbury...Jeremy Lamond.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Lovely to see you, Jeremy. - Nice to see you too, Tim.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Good. Now, for the Reds, Laura and Catherine,
0:19:53 > 0:19:59we've got two Charley Weaver bartender models, which are a hoot, aren't they?
0:19:59 > 0:20:03I think they're fun. I think they're great things. 1950s.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- Once they've got batteries in, they ought to do all sorts of bartending tricks.- Yes.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10But as they are, £40, £60.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Brilliant. £25 was paid...
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- Fine.- ..by Laura, so that's a good buy, we think.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Now, the case set of buttons. - Yeah.- Chester hallmarks.
0:20:18 > 0:20:23I think little sets of buttons are very collectable. People still sew them onto things.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- £60, £80.- Yeah. Brilliant.
0:20:25 > 0:20:30£80 they paid. Now, this thing is described as scratch-built.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Charles paid £12 for this.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37All right. So, will it make...?
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Might make £5 or £10, mightn't it? Difficult to estimate.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45It might sell but it's not a collectable of the future.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49If the two Charleys do well, and the buttons do well,
0:20:49 > 0:20:52they won't need the bonus buy but let's go and have a look at it, anyway.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Look at that. Look. You can almost see yourself in it.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00Look, it reflects... your pretty faces.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I think Catherine loves it.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Do you not like it?
0:21:04 > 0:21:08- Well...- It's Birmingham. - You're right.
0:21:08 > 0:21:14- Hey, how good is that? - Made in Birmingham, in 1908.
0:21:14 > 0:21:1512 ounces, so very, very heavy.
0:21:15 > 0:21:20As an investment, I think today, what I paid for it represents good value for money
0:21:20 > 0:21:23we know who made it,
0:21:23 > 0:21:29where it was made, the year, so it identifies everything to it, and I think it's a good object. Yes, I do.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Well done, girls. Think about that.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36For the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles' nut dish.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40It's a lovely pierced silver dish. Edwardian.
0:21:40 > 0:21:4212 ounces. Good gauge weight.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Nice cast sea-scroll rim.
0:21:45 > 0:21:51We would think about £100, £150, although I could see it making £200. It's in good condition.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Might make 200. Charles paid £183.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Now for the Blues. M and M, Michael and Michelle.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04The Art Deco scent bottle is their first item.
0:22:04 > 0:22:09There's a bit of damage, which has put our estimate down to £20-£30.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Michelle found it. She paid £25.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15Up to the nose, fresh as a rose, moving on to the brooch.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Thought to be Scandinavian.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21- We think 1950s, '60s.- What sort of estimate do you put on that?
0:22:21 > 0:22:23We think 30-50.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26£50 is what Jonathan paid.
0:22:26 > 0:22:31And the lady's travelling set is,
0:22:31 > 0:22:34well, I suppose the cheapest variety of that type, would you say?
0:22:34 > 0:22:38- 20-30. - Right. Well, that's not so bad.
0:22:38 > 0:22:44£25 was paid. So, all three items have got their hope value.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Let's find out about their bonus buy.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53- You've got here a pair of shot dispensers.- OK.
0:22:53 > 0:22:58I paid £50 for them. And I went along with this...
0:22:58 > 0:23:02We're in the countryside, there's a lot of shooting, fishing, all that sort of stuff.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05When you're building your own cartridges, you'd use this to measure the shot.
0:23:05 > 0:23:10I think every gunroom should have some and they're by James Dickson and Son,
0:23:10 > 0:23:14a name synonymous with good metalwork from the late 19th and early 20th century.
0:23:14 > 0:23:15How much do you think it'll make?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18How much am I thinking it's going to be making?
0:23:18 > 0:23:21I think, probably,
0:23:21 > 0:23:25- if we wash its face on this, I think we'll probably be doing a good thing.- OK.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29You don't pick now, of course. You pick after the sale of the first three items
0:23:29 > 0:23:34and you'll be in a position then of knowing whether you really, really need to go with these or not.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38But right now, for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks.
0:23:39 > 0:23:46- Well, these are unusual, aren't they? Rather fun. - Little powder shot measures.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51- What do you think they're worth, then?- I think they're no more than £20 or £30.
0:23:51 > 0:23:57- This won't have Jonathan brassing off cos he paid £50 for them.- Right. - And it's supposed to be a bonus buy.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Might be just a struggle to get to 50, mightn't it?
0:23:59 > 0:24:01He'll get shot.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03By his team, he will.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Anyway, we look forward to a successful auction
0:24:05 > 0:24:08and your colleague's taking that bit of the sale.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Yes. Christina is taking the silver and jewellery and works of art.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Now, Laura and Catherine,
0:24:19 > 0:24:22looking good, I have to say.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23Feeling good?
0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Not bad. Not bad. Not bad. - Yeah.- Not too bad.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Here we are in the auction, it's nice and full in here.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31There's plenty of bidders. There's activity going on.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35First up is Charley the weaver, two of them, here they come.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Lot 308 is the Japanese Nomura toys.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43How about those for £20, for the two figures there. At £20, anywhere?
0:24:43 > 0:24:4620's bid. Thank you, sir. At £20.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48On the second row, then, at £20.
0:24:48 > 0:24:49Is there any further interest?
0:24:49 > 0:24:5222. 25.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55At £25. Seated, then, at £25.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59Are we all done at 25? I will sell, make no mistake, at £25.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03She's stopped. Oh...she stopped early. £25. Wiped its face.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06That's no loss, no profit, no shame.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08- It's buttons.- Here it comes.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Lot 309 is rather lovely.
0:25:10 > 0:25:15How about those for 50? For the cased buttons at £50 anywhere?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Who wants the buttons at £50?
0:25:17 > 0:25:2040, then. £40. 40's bid.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Thank you, sir. And five. Against you, sir.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25At £45 with the lady, then, at 45.
0:25:25 > 0:25:2950. Thank you. At 50. Five. 60.
0:25:29 > 0:25:33- Five. 70.- Yes. Come on.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35At £70. Front row, then, at £70.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37If we're all done at 70?
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Come on. Can't bear this, Charles. £70.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42Minus £10.
0:25:42 > 0:25:47Lot 310 is the scratch-built doll's cradle. How about that for £20?
0:25:47 > 0:25:52For the cradle anywhere, at £20... for the doll's cradle. At £20.
0:25:52 > 0:25:5320's bid. Thank you, sir.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56At £20. And two.
0:25:56 > 0:25:5925. 28.
0:25:59 > 0:26:0130. 32. Thank you, anyway.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04At £32 with the lady seated, at 32.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Look out, £32.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08He's made a profit.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11That's £20 on that terrible thing.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14£10, £20, you are plus £10.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16You have £10 in the bank. All right.
0:26:16 > 0:26:18Oh, my God.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20- This is good.- £5 each.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22£5 each...for a whole day.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25What are you going to do about the bonus buy? Are you going to risk it?
0:26:25 > 0:26:26No. I'm sorry.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29We forgive you for buying that cradle. Forgiveness.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32We all forgive you, Charles. We're all wrong and you're right.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35All right. Well done. Anyway, so we're not going with the bonus buy.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- But we're going to sell it, anyway. - Let's see what it makes.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42Lot 314 is the silver oval dish.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Lot 314. How about that for £80?
0:26:45 > 0:26:48For the silver dish at £80 anywhere?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50Lot 314 at £80.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54£80. 70 is bid on my right. At £70.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57I will sell, make no mistake. And five.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Against you, sir. 80. Five.
0:27:01 > 0:27:0490.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07At £90 on my right. One more?
0:27:07 > 0:27:11Five. At £95. Front row, then, at £95.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13All done at 95?
0:27:13 > 0:27:17£95. Five shy of 100.
0:27:17 > 0:27:22That is £88 of losses. £88.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27Minus £88. You would have been down the toilet if you'd gone with that.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29- We didn't.- You didn't. - It's amazing, isn't it?
0:27:29 > 0:27:34- Well, listen, girls, you've done extremely well, as we know. - Well played.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39- Don't say a thing to the Blues. All right.- No. Definitely not, now. - Look gloomy. Well done.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41What a result, eh?
0:27:46 > 0:27:50- Now, M and M, do you know how the Reds got on?- No.- No.
0:27:50 > 0:27:54Good. Just as well, that.
0:27:54 > 0:28:00First up is the scent bottle, your lovely deco scent bottle, Michelle ma belle, and here it comes.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02Lot 330.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04How about that for £20, for the scent bottle and stopper?
0:28:04 > 0:28:07At 20. 20 is bid on my right.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Thank you. At £20.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11At £20. If we'll all done then.
0:28:11 > 0:28:14Internet bidder at £20.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18£20. That was a pretty paltry attempt.
0:28:18 > 0:28:19Minus £5.
0:28:19 > 0:28:25Lot 331 is the Coro sterling silver Arts and Crafts style brooch.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27How about that for 30?
0:28:27 > 0:28:31£30 for the Arts and Crafts style brooch. At £30 anywhere?
0:28:31 > 0:28:34At £30. 20, then.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36£20. 20 is bid, on the front row.
0:28:36 > 0:28:40At £20. Are we all done at 20? I will sell, make no mistake.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43And two. Against you. 25.
0:28:43 > 0:28:4628. Thank you, anyway.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48At £28 at the very back, then.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50At £28.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52That is two shy of 30.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55That is minus 22.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Lot 332 is the lady's travelling vanity case.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01And how about that for £20?
0:29:01 > 0:29:04Useful, surely. 20 is bid. Thank you, at the very back.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07And two. 25. 28.
0:29:07 > 0:29:1030. 32. 35. 38. Thank you, anyway.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14At £38 on my right, then, at £38.
0:29:14 > 0:29:16If we're all done...at £38.
0:29:16 > 0:29:20£38. That's plus 13.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22You're minus 27.
0:29:22 > 0:29:23Minus 13.
0:29:23 > 0:29:2627 minus 13...
0:29:26 > 0:29:28You're minus £14, overall.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30Are you going to...
0:29:30 > 0:29:33punt with the shot measures or park it at 14?
0:29:33 > 0:29:35No. I think we should leave it.
0:29:35 > 0:29:39I think 14, we stand a chance of winning here, so I think we should...
0:29:39 > 0:29:41- What do you think? - There's confidence for you.
0:29:41 > 0:29:46- I think Belle's a bit of a punter here, aren't you?- I kind of want to go for it, though.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48- What do you think? - Come on, then. Let's go for it.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51- I'm going to go for it.- Go for it. - You are going to go for it.
0:29:51 > 0:29:55Two measures, there. Lot 336 and who will start me at £20 for them?
0:29:55 > 0:29:5820's bid. Thank you, madam. At £20.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00At the very back, then, at £20.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03At 20. At £20. And if we're all done...
0:30:03 > 0:30:05I will sell. We're all done at £20?
0:30:05 > 0:30:0720 it is.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09I'm not getting a good feeling.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11£20.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14It's minus £30 on that.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18It's minus £44. M and M.
0:30:18 > 0:30:22I'm sorry about that.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25So, the Blues took a gamble but lost a total of £44,
0:30:25 > 0:30:27making the Reds the winners,
0:30:27 > 0:30:32as, remember, they made a dinky little profit of £10.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35Coming up, two more teams go on the hunt for bargains,
0:30:35 > 0:30:38but, first, I'm off to somewhere rather...stately.
0:30:38 > 0:30:45If you owned a swish pad in the country, like Attingham Park, here in Shropshire,
0:30:45 > 0:30:50you'd certainly want to impress your guests were they to pop round for a spot of nosh.
0:30:50 > 0:30:54And the dining room here certainly does that.
0:31:02 > 0:31:06The first thing that arrests your attention in the dining room
0:31:06 > 0:31:09is this magnificent arrangement on the dining table.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12Now, this has not been put together hastily.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16This is an arrangement that would have been put in place
0:31:16 > 0:31:19for a seriously important visitor,
0:31:19 > 0:31:22perhaps even a state visit with royalty.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25And what sets it off so magnificently
0:31:25 > 0:31:27is the use of all this gilt bronze.
0:31:27 > 0:31:34Pierre Philippe Thomire was the royal bronzer,
0:31:34 > 0:31:38the bronzer who did it for Napoleon and the empire,
0:31:38 > 0:31:41and that's the period that these pieces date from.
0:31:41 > 0:31:45The centrepiece with the Three Graces,
0:31:45 > 0:31:49these diaphanously-dressed young ladies,
0:31:49 > 0:31:53support, above their heads, an exquisitely-cast basket.
0:31:53 > 0:31:59These are supported with swan neck terminals
0:31:59 > 0:32:03and those swan neck terminals are reflected
0:32:03 > 0:32:07in the candelabra, where we have winged flying swans
0:32:07 > 0:32:10supporting each of the candle holders.
0:32:10 > 0:32:17What I'm particularly intrigued to see is the arrangements on these sur tous de table,
0:32:17 > 0:32:20because if you look carefully,
0:32:20 > 0:32:25this green mass is supposed to represent
0:32:25 > 0:32:29some formal planting in a garden. It's actually edible.
0:32:29 > 0:32:35It's made of green-coloured marzipan with hundreds and thousands in the middle.
0:32:35 > 0:32:40Indeed, the Continentals used to make their entire dessert service out of sugar,
0:32:40 > 0:32:42the plates and so forth.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46So when that course was served, you'd simply smash up the plates and eat them.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50Well, that's one way of cutting out the washing-up.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54Meanwhile, back at Oswestry, our two new teams will be hoping
0:32:54 > 0:32:58to find some sweet little bargains that they can take to auction.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02Time to meet our next pairs of Reds and Blues.
0:33:04 > 0:33:09For the Reds, we have granddaughter Sarah and her grandmother Sylvia.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12Welcome. And for the Blues, we've got Kath and Glenda,
0:33:12 > 0:33:14who are just good mates.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- Now, Sylvia, you're retired now? - I am.- But you used to own a shop?
0:33:17 > 0:33:19Yes, I did.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21Uh-huh. Tell us about that.
0:33:21 > 0:33:26We were a newsagent's-cum-selling china, bedding, bikes.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29You name it, we sold it.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32- So it was like a kind of general store, then, would you say?- Yeah.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34What's this about the Sunday opening for you?
0:33:34 > 0:33:40We did a Sunday opening and we gave all the proceeds to a cancer charity.
0:33:40 > 0:33:45- Well, that's very noble of you. - Yeah, the mayor came and we presented him with a cheque. Yeah.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48So, Sarah, you're 18. Are you a student or at work?
0:33:48 > 0:33:50I'm a little bit of both, really.
0:33:50 > 0:33:55I've just finished my A-levels and I work as a lifeguard and a swimming teacher.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59- Do you?- I do. - And what are you studying?
0:33:59 > 0:34:02I'm going on in September to do childcare and education.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04And, Sarah, what do you collect?
0:34:04 > 0:34:08Nothing really now. I collected things when I was younger, different bits,
0:34:08 > 0:34:13mainly Beanie Babies and little toys you get in Kinder eggs and bits like that.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17- You'll do terribly well on Bargain Hunt, then, won't you?- I hope so!
0:34:17 > 0:34:21Just look for the Kinder egg toys and you'll be safe! Anyway, good luck, girls.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23Now, Blues.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27Kath, you've been on TV almost as many times as me. Tell us about it.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31Right, I was on Top Of The Pops in 1964
0:34:31 > 0:34:35when I was sweet 17, which is about a couple of years ago.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38And who was presenting Top Of The Pops then?
0:34:38 > 0:34:40- Pete Murray at the time. - Pete Murray.- Yes, great.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43Were you wearing a very short skirt somewhere in the front?
0:34:43 > 0:34:46Yes, pink, and dancing silly, like you did!
0:34:46 > 0:34:47Oh, great.
0:34:47 > 0:34:52Now, Glenda, have you had as much TV experience as your friend?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54No, she's been around a bit. Not me.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56What do you mean, "She's been around a bit"?!
0:34:56 > 0:35:00Tell us about being a swimming champion.
0:35:00 > 0:35:06Well, at school, I was the school champion for three years running.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09It's a family joke, actually - they say I was a good swimmer
0:35:09 > 0:35:12because my sister tried to drown me when I was in my pram!
0:35:12 > 0:35:15She's fond of you, your sister(?)
0:35:15 > 0:35:18A twin pram went over into a lake.
0:35:18 > 0:35:22My brother was hanging by the harness and I was underneath the water,
0:35:22 > 0:35:28- and she jumped in and saved me, and I decided at an early age to learn to swim.- Yes.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31- So are you into antique shopping? - Yes, I love it.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34I love going to auctions and I love buying things.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36What sort of things do you buy?
0:35:36 > 0:35:38Anything from Moorcroft, which is my favourite,
0:35:38 > 0:35:42- down to SylvaC.- Oh. But don't you find it all quite expensive?
0:35:42 > 0:35:47- Yeah, that's why I get the SylvaC sometimes.- Yeah. Cos these things aren't cheap, are they?
0:35:47 > 0:35:51No, but at auction, you can get a really good price.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54I think we're talking to some experienced teams here.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58I think there's going to be trouble ahead. Now, the money moment.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00Here's your £300, £300 apiece.
0:36:00 > 0:36:05You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!
0:36:05 > 0:36:09So, three items in one hour, with £300 to spend.
0:36:09 > 0:36:13Have the Blues found something that tickles their fancy already?
0:36:13 > 0:36:15I really like this.
0:36:15 > 0:36:20- I love the character,- It's outside my comfort zone, but it's fine!
0:36:20 > 0:36:24But, you know, with something like that, two things you've got to do.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27You've got to look at absolutely every single piece,
0:36:27 > 0:36:31and there's got to be no cracks, no chips, no repairs.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- How much was this? Where's he gone? - He didn't say.
0:36:34 > 0:36:3620?
0:36:36 > 0:36:37That's not a bad start, is it?
0:36:37 > 0:36:40Yeah. We couldn't get it down to 15, could we?
0:36:40 > 0:36:44- Cos we've really got to make... - Shall we do it for 15? - We've got to make a profit.
0:36:44 > 0:36:48- Yes, you can have it for 15. - We'll have it. Job done. Thank you very much.
0:36:48 > 0:36:51Crikey, that's a speedy first buy for the Blues.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54One item down in just five minutes.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56Look at this.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58Silver-enamelled goblet.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00It's hallmarked -
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Birmingham 1928.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05I love this enamel little crest.
0:37:05 > 0:37:08- Right.- I'm not sure if it's a sort of Welsh dragon, sir...?
0:37:08 > 0:37:13- I think it is. It's certainly got a Welsh connection.- Yeah.
0:37:13 > 0:37:18And the best price - we could buy this for £20, OK? Which, to me,
0:37:18 > 0:37:19is a very good price.
0:37:19 > 0:37:23- What do you think, Sylvia? - It's nice, yeah.- Out of ten?
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- Um, seven.- Not bad. OK.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- Do you agree? - Yeah. Yeah, I'd give it a seven.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32- I think it's because I can't imagine ever drinking out of one...- No.
0:37:32 > 0:37:37- ..that's what's losing its appeal. - Well, once tried, never forgotten, OK?
0:37:37 > 0:37:40Not to be rushed into any hasty decisions,
0:37:40 > 0:37:42the Reds leave the silver goblet for now.
0:37:42 > 0:37:47Despite Charles's best efforts, the Red team seem reluctant to part with their cash.
0:37:47 > 0:37:52Hang about. Could this be the spending breakthrough Charles has been waiting for?
0:37:52 > 0:37:56That's the bridge pencils and, again, there's a huge market.
0:37:56 > 0:38:00The case must be 19... I suppose '40s, '50s.
0:38:00 > 0:38:01Just have a look for any hallmarks.
0:38:01 > 0:38:05All I can see on mine is a mark "sterling silver".
0:38:05 > 0:38:09- Sterling silver.- Very nice. - Shall I ask him what he'd do it for?
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Yeah, if you like it.
0:38:11 > 0:38:15- What would be the best you could do on the bridge set?- The bridge set?
0:38:15 > 0:38:18- What have we got on that? - I think, sir, it's £75.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Right.
0:38:20 > 0:38:21I'd do £50 on that.
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Is that the VERY best?
0:38:23 > 0:38:25- Absolutely very best. - It's a very good offer.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Do you want to think about it?
0:38:27 > 0:38:29- Yes.- Thank you, sir, for your help.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31- You're very welcome. - We'll have a think. Thank you.
0:38:31 > 0:38:33- OK?- Yeah.- Nice set, isn't it?
0:38:33 > 0:38:37A very nice set, but the Reds are still undecided.
0:38:37 > 0:38:42Meanwhile, Jonathan's eagle eye has spotted an unusual silver letter opener.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45That's really sweet.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48Register number 541469, a Birmingham mark.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50I really like that, actually.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52It's a good novelty thing, really.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54He says looking over...
0:38:54 > 0:38:58- It's Chester silver, yeah.- There's always a premium on Chester silver.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00- But that's really nicely modelled. - It is. It's lovely.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02- It's quite a nice touch. - It's dainty.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05- What would you do on that? - How much have I got on there?
0:39:05 > 0:39:09You've got a hundred and, um... 110, I think.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12I think it's 135! I could do it for 115.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15110?
0:39:15 > 0:39:18Yeah, I'll do it for 110.
0:39:18 > 0:39:20- Oh, thank you!- A kiss as well. Gosh.
0:39:20 > 0:39:21- I like that.- You're a star.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25- What do you think?- Yeah, I think it's absolutely lovely.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28So we've got something of family relevance, something silver,
0:39:28 > 0:39:30so we've just got to buy our wooden box.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34- Brilliant. We'll take that. - Thank you very much indeed. - Thank you very much.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37Great team tactics. At half time, that's two-nil to you, Blues.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Come on, Reds, you need to step up your game.
0:39:39 > 0:39:43Could this be your first buy of the day?
0:39:43 > 0:39:45What's that? Oh, that's nice.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48- Come down here, ladies, have a look at this.- It's got good character.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50I quite like that.
0:39:50 > 0:39:57We can see... Look at this nice little feather marquetry inlay on a mahogany frame. Look at that.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01Look, you get the mattress as well. Lovely.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04- May I ask you, please, how much is it?- 70 for you.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06- £70 for me?- Really nice, yeah.
0:40:06 > 0:40:10Is that the VERY best you can do?
0:40:10 > 0:40:12The very best is how much?
0:40:12 > 0:40:14- 70.- I quite like it for that.
0:40:14 > 0:40:17- Food for thought, isn't it? - Yeah.- Thank you very much.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20- Thank you. - Oh, no! With just 20 minutes left,
0:40:20 > 0:40:24the Red team still have absolutely nothing to show for their efforts.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26I'm not finding it easy, really.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28- It's not easy.- It's not easy.
0:40:28 > 0:40:33- Perhaps the problem lies with Sylvia's hard bargaining. - Yes.- It is expensive.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Come on, be kind to us.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41What is the very best you would do on that?
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Am I prepared to pay that much?
0:40:44 > 0:40:48When it comes to serious haggling, Sylvia's not messing about.
0:40:48 > 0:40:50It's tough Sylvia. Tough lady.
0:40:50 > 0:40:54The Blues, on the other hand, are taking a much more light-hearted approach.
0:40:54 > 0:40:57- Yes! - Right, what do you think of that?
0:40:57 > 0:40:59- Oh, yes.- Nice little box. Yeah, and it's in French, look.
0:40:59 > 0:41:03So the gentleman thinks you could put your French letters in there.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07- Right... I actually saw that. - In their wrappers, of course! - I just saw that.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12- Another inkwell.- Oh, OK.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14Sort of like a little Austrian hat or something.
0:41:14 > 0:41:19In the 19th century, early 20th century, carved as a Bavarian hat.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22- Yeah.- Black Forest, I suppose. Made of pine, stained.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25£20? We can go and have a coffee then.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28We've got 15 minutes left to go and sit down. What do you think?
0:41:28 > 0:41:32- Yeah.- Or do you want to put it aside, have a little wander about outside and come back again?
0:41:32 > 0:41:35- No, go for it.- Are you all right? - Yeah, that'll be fine.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37- A score it is, then.- All right.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39- £20.- Very good. Thank you very much.
0:41:39 > 0:41:41You're a star. Thank you very much.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Good luck to the Blue team.
0:41:45 > 0:41:47So, the Blues now have all three items,
0:41:47 > 0:41:50while the Reds have, er...none!
0:41:50 > 0:41:55With time ticking away, Charles has made an executive decision and gone back to the bridge set.
0:41:56 > 0:42:00We quite like, madam, the bridge set.
0:42:00 > 0:42:03- OK.- And we also like the...
0:42:03 > 0:42:04- Goblet.- Goblet.
0:42:04 > 0:42:08And I think what we would be thinking is perhaps buying the two together.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11For a small discount? £5?
0:42:11 > 0:42:14How much...? We said 50, didn't we?
0:42:14 > 0:42:17This, to me,
0:42:17 > 0:42:20- squeaks at between 40 and 60 as a guide price.- Yeah.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23And this here, between 20 and 30.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26- I think they're both lovely. - Yeah.- They are.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29You're quite right. They'll do quite well at auction.
0:42:29 > 0:42:35They are small and portable. Whether the lady, in that lovely dress she's wearing, could maybe do us about 40.
0:42:35 > 0:42:3740 and 20, that would be...
0:42:37 > 0:42:39- 60 for the two.- Yes.- 60 for the two.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42- Is that OK with you?- Yes.
0:42:42 > 0:42:47- Let's hope Sylvia's hard bargaining doesn't blow this one. - How do you feel about that?- 55?
0:42:47 > 0:42:51- Yeah, they're light at that. - Yeah, but I've seen a few things that I like as well.- Have you?
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Yeah. Would you take 55 or not?
0:42:53 > 0:42:5560, OK?
0:42:55 > 0:42:57- That's a very fair offer.- Yeah.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59- Thank you. Happy? - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01- Very.- Good. That's very good of you.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Thank you very much for your time.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06- Well done.- With a little gentle persuasion from Charles, the Reds
0:43:06 > 0:43:10have their first two buys of the day, with just five minutes left.
0:43:10 > 0:43:13Let's hope they're on a roll now.
0:43:13 > 0:43:15- OK.- You ask the seller.
0:43:15 > 0:43:17Would you take 65?
0:43:17 > 0:43:22I honestly can't. You see, the bedding doesn't appeal to me.
0:43:23 > 0:43:25Well, it came with that.
0:43:25 > 0:43:27- I think it would.- Yeah, you like it.
0:43:27 > 0:43:29It looks striking.
0:43:29 > 0:43:32Deal.
0:43:32 > 0:43:34You're a tough lady.
0:43:35 > 0:43:38Cor, finally! And now...time's up.
0:43:41 > 0:43:44The Red team crawled off to an incredibly slow start
0:43:44 > 0:43:50but, after 45 minutes, they did buy a George V silver goblet for £20.
0:43:50 > 0:43:55This was followed by a 1940s cased bridge set at £40.
0:43:55 > 0:44:01And with a nail-biting three minutes to spare, they paid £70 for an Edwardian doll's bed.
0:44:01 > 0:44:03Cor!
0:44:04 > 0:44:06And what did you spend, Sarah?
0:44:06 > 0:44:09- We spent £130.- OK, £170.
0:44:09 > 0:44:10- Is that the 170?- It is.
0:44:10 > 0:44:12- It's a healthy handout for me!- It is!
0:44:12 > 0:44:15It's a nice little bonus for you, Charles.
0:44:15 > 0:44:16- Thanks.- What are you going to get?
0:44:16 > 0:44:19I think, Tim, something which is going to, I suppose,
0:44:19 > 0:44:22play in between perhaps Grandma and granddaughter -
0:44:22 > 0:44:25might be difficult. Hopefully there'll be something,
0:44:25 > 0:44:29which will find a happy medium and blend the two well in together. Do you agree?
0:44:29 > 0:44:31After all that, I'm rather confused, actually.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34You'd better just do it, whatever it is you're going to do.
0:44:34 > 0:44:36- I'll try.- There's a good boy.
0:44:36 > 0:44:39Now, let's remind ourselves of what the Blues bought.
0:44:39 > 0:44:41Glenda spots
0:44:41 > 0:44:43a 1930s coffee service. In five minutes,
0:44:43 > 0:44:47the Blue team have snapped it up for £15.
0:44:47 > 0:44:52Next, they spend £110 on an unusual silver letter opener.
0:44:52 > 0:44:55Finally, it's hats off to the Blue team,
0:44:55 > 0:44:59as they buy the Bavarian inkwell with just 15 minutes to spare.
0:45:01 > 0:45:03So how much did you spend over all?
0:45:03 > 0:45:04Best part of 150, was it?
0:45:04 > 0:45:06- 145.- 145...
0:45:06 > 0:45:10We want £155 of leftover lolly. That goes to Jonathan.
0:45:10 > 0:45:14- What will you do with all this cash? You're not going to let us down?- No. I don't know.
0:45:14 > 0:45:18- I think I probably will plough it into one item.- Will you?
0:45:18 > 0:45:20I think I will. We've spent a lot on one piece,
0:45:20 > 0:45:23two pieces were pretty cheap, weren't they?
0:45:23 > 0:45:25- Mmm.- So I think I'll be bold.
0:45:38 > 0:45:43Jeremy Lamond is our man today at Hall's excellent saleroom in Shrewsbury. Good morning, Jeremy.
0:45:43 > 0:45:47- Nice to meet you, Tim. - Very nice to see you too. Now, we're not going to bed quite yet.
0:45:47 > 0:45:49We'll start off with the goblet.
0:45:49 > 0:45:52It's a good commercial piece of small silver,
0:45:52 > 0:45:55and silver is up at the moment,
0:45:55 > 0:45:56so we think £20 or £30, at least.
0:45:56 > 0:45:59Well, they paid £20. The bridge set.
0:45:59 > 0:46:03- They've got their place, but it's not here.- No.- A tenner,
0:46:03 > 0:46:06- £15 maybe.- £10-£15. £40 they spent on that.
0:46:06 > 0:46:11Finally, the little doll's bed.
0:46:11 > 0:46:14If you want one, and that's how you choose to display your collection,
0:46:14 > 0:46:16then it's probably quite a good thing to have.
0:46:16 > 0:46:18It might make £30 on a good day.
0:46:18 > 0:46:21Well, Sylvia paid £70, actually,
0:46:21 > 0:46:23- which is quite a lot of money. - I think it is, yeah.
0:46:23 > 0:46:25Overall here, Jeremy,
0:46:25 > 0:46:29I think they're in trouble, so let's go and have a look at the bonus buy.
0:46:29 > 0:46:33- Charles, reveal all, please. - And I only spent... Are you ready?
0:46:33 > 0:46:35£80...
0:46:35 > 0:46:41on these delightful moonstone and 18-carat gold bodice buttons.
0:46:41 > 0:46:44I don't normally buy jewellery, but these sparkled.
0:46:44 > 0:46:47You think back to that great, elegant, late-Victorian age,
0:46:47 > 0:46:52- the Edwardians, and they just speak classic elegance to me. - They're beautiful.
0:46:52 > 0:46:53Do you agree, Tim?
0:46:53 > 0:46:57Oh, Charles, you do tell a story, don't you?
0:46:57 > 0:46:58My guide price on them
0:46:58 > 0:47:03would be, in the right sale, in a jewellery section, ought to be,
0:47:03 > 0:47:08because 18-carat gold, between 80 and 120. OK? That's my guide price.
0:47:08 > 0:47:12I paid 80 for them, so I do feel they ought to make lower estimate,
0:47:12 > 0:47:16they might make 70, but I would hope they'll make more towards £100.
0:47:16 > 0:47:19- Yeah, I like them.- Ah, good. - I think they're lovely.
0:47:19 > 0:47:23You think about that, you girls, but for the audience at home,
0:47:23 > 0:47:27let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles's bodice buttons.
0:47:27 > 0:47:29Now, Charles paid £80 for these.
0:47:29 > 0:47:32He rates them as a bonus buy. What's your estimate?
0:47:32 > 0:47:35I think we would halve that.
0:47:35 > 0:47:38£40-£50 or so. Good luck to Charles.
0:47:38 > 0:47:40Well, that's it for the Reds.
0:47:40 > 0:47:44Now for the Blues. The Gray's coffee service.
0:47:44 > 0:47:50Yes, it's a platinum lustre, what we'd call silver lustre coffee service
0:47:50 > 0:47:53from the 1930s, with an early mark.
0:47:53 > 0:47:57I would say that's probably £30-£50 for it.
0:47:57 > 0:47:59Really? £15 was paid.
0:47:59 > 0:48:01- That's great. - Jonathan will be delighted.
0:48:01 > 0:48:04Well, that's a very good buy, then, for £15.
0:48:04 > 0:48:10His next item, however, the little paper knife, might be another story.
0:48:10 > 0:48:11I like this.
0:48:11 > 0:48:16It's a good novelty silver paper knife with an elephant's head handle.
0:48:16 > 0:48:20It's Edwardian, 1909,
0:48:20 > 0:48:24and I think we're looking at £50-£70, £100 maybe.
0:48:24 > 0:48:28If you collect paper knives or letter knives, it's a good thing.
0:48:28 > 0:48:31- Well, he paid £110.- Yeah...
0:48:31 > 0:48:33- And he could get that?- He could.
0:48:33 > 0:48:35And finally,
0:48:35 > 0:48:37the little inkwell, the Bavarian inkwell.
0:48:37 > 0:48:39Quite fun, isn't it?
0:48:39 > 0:48:43It is. I think it's probably not only an inkwell,
0:48:43 > 0:48:47- but a pen rest in this groove in the top.- What a good idea.
0:48:47 > 0:48:53And, to a collector of treen or inkwells or Tyrolean carving,
0:48:53 > 0:48:57then it's probably quite special, isn't it? I would think £20-£30.
0:48:57 > 0:49:01Great. £20 paid. Not a bad group?
0:49:01 > 0:49:04- Not bad.- Just a bit of a question mark over the letter knife
0:49:04 > 0:49:07as to whether somebody will cough up more than £110 for it.
0:49:07 > 0:49:12Just in case, let's go and have a look at the bonus buy.
0:49:12 > 0:49:15- Ooh.- A little gold black-enamel mourning brooch
0:49:15 > 0:49:18- from the sort of mid-Victorian period.- Oh, wow.
0:49:18 > 0:49:20- Is that jet? - No, no, it's basically...
0:49:20 > 0:49:24Underneath that, there's gold, and it's black glass on top...
0:49:24 > 0:49:26- Right.- ..which is enamelled.
0:49:26 > 0:49:30I went for that, I think, because of its condition as well, actually.
0:49:30 > 0:49:34You see many of these where the enamel's gone. When the enamel goes,
0:49:34 > 0:49:38there's very little chance of getting it back. So it's just in nice condition...
0:49:38 > 0:49:40How much profit are we going to get?
0:49:40 > 0:49:44- Well, I paid £40...- That's not bad. - ..and I reckon there's...
0:49:44 > 0:49:45I don't think it'll sail away,
0:49:45 > 0:49:48but we might see... We could see a tenner in it.
0:49:48 > 0:49:52And for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks.
0:49:52 > 0:49:56And in here, the seller has chosen to take out the lock of hair,
0:49:56 > 0:49:58and put in a nice little landscape,
0:49:58 > 0:50:01so there's a modern, digitally-printed landscape in there,
0:50:01 > 0:50:03which probably looks a bit more jolly
0:50:03 > 0:50:07- than what was in there before. - Is that a saleable item?
0:50:07 > 0:50:09- 40-60.- Well, that's magic.
0:50:09 > 0:50:11£40 was paid for it. Brilliant, Jeremy.
0:50:11 > 0:50:14So we're looking forward to a really spiffing sale.
0:50:14 > 0:50:17- Are you on the rostrum?- My colleague is selling that part of it.
0:50:17 > 0:50:21- OK, we'll look forward to that. Thank you so much, anyway. - Thank you.
0:50:26 > 0:50:29Now, Sarah and Sylvia, what a combo, eh?
0:50:29 > 0:50:31- How are you feeling?- A bit nervous.
0:50:31 > 0:50:35- What about you, Sylvia? - Yeah, fairly confident.
0:50:35 > 0:50:37First up, though, is the little goblet,
0:50:37 > 0:50:39and here it comes.
0:50:39 > 0:50:42S Blanckensee and Sons Ltd, Birmingham, 1928,
0:50:42 > 0:50:44lot 352. How about that for £20?
0:50:44 > 0:50:48For the silver goblet, at £20 anywhere? 20's bid,
0:50:48 > 0:50:52thank you. On my right at £20. All done at 20?
0:50:52 > 0:50:54At £20, on my right, then...
0:50:54 > 0:50:56And 2. Thank you, sir.
0:50:56 > 0:51:02- Against you, 25, 28, 30...- Yes!
0:51:02 > 0:51:05Thank you, anyway. At £30. On my right, then, at £30.
0:51:05 > 0:51:07If we're all done at 30...
0:51:07 > 0:51:10- Yes!- Well done, Charles. That is plus £10.- Fantastic, great.
0:51:10 > 0:51:15Enclosing four Life-Long retractable pencils and a refill case,
0:51:15 > 0:51:17lot 353, and interest there.
0:51:17 > 0:51:20I'm going to have to start this above estimate at £42.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22With me on commission at £42.
0:51:22 > 0:51:26Here with me at 42. At £42, if we're all done, then,
0:51:26 > 0:51:30I will sell to a commission bidder at £42.
0:51:30 > 0:51:33Ah, lovely. Well done. £42.
0:51:33 > 0:51:35Another profit.
0:51:35 > 0:51:37£2 profit. That's very good.
0:51:37 > 0:51:40- Not predicted, but wonderful. - We want to see the bed now!- The bed.
0:51:40 > 0:51:42Now your bed.
0:51:42 > 0:51:44Who'll start me at £20 for it, for the bed frame?
0:51:44 > 0:51:48£20 is bid, thank you, madam. At £20, at the very back, and 2.
0:51:48 > 0:51:5025, 28, 30...
0:51:50 > 0:51:5532, 35, 38, 40... Thank you anyway.
0:51:55 > 0:51:56£40. With the lady seated,
0:51:56 > 0:51:59- at £40. If we're all done at 40... - One more.- Come on!
0:51:59 > 0:52:01And 5. At £45.
0:52:01 > 0:52:04Against you, madam, at £45 here.
0:52:04 > 0:52:07Will you go 50? 50 is bid. And against you, madam. And 5.
0:52:07 > 0:52:09One more!
0:52:09 > 0:52:11At £55, front row, then.
0:52:11 > 0:52:14- If you're all done at £55... - One more!
0:52:14 > 0:52:19- Oh!- £55. That's five shy of 60.
0:52:19 > 0:52:23It's minus £15. You had £12 profit.
0:52:23 > 0:52:27You're now minus three! I can't bear this. Minus £3.
0:52:27 > 0:52:29That is so close.
0:52:29 > 0:52:32- What are you going to do about the bodice buttons?- Um...
0:52:32 > 0:52:34- Oh, it's a toughy.- A toughy.
0:52:34 > 0:52:36Minus three could be a winning score.
0:52:36 > 0:52:38- I think...- On the other hand...
0:52:38 > 0:52:40Yeah, yeah, I think we'll stick.
0:52:40 > 0:52:41You're the button queen.
0:52:41 > 0:52:44- I know, I know.- You're not going to go with those?- No.
0:52:44 > 0:52:46We'll sell 'em anyway, let's find out.
0:52:46 > 0:52:51Lot 358 is the cased set of four bodice buttons,
0:52:51 > 0:52:53stamped 18, for 18-carat.
0:52:53 > 0:52:57Lot 358, and who'll start me at £40 for them?
0:52:57 > 0:52:59For the bodice buttons, at £40 anywhere?
0:52:59 > 0:53:0130 is bid on my right.
0:53:01 > 0:53:05At £30. With the gentleman on my right, then, at £30.
0:53:05 > 0:53:09Is there any further interest? I will sell, make no mistake. At £30.
0:53:09 > 0:53:11If we're all done at 30?
0:53:11 > 0:53:14You could melt them down and make a profit on them, Charles.
0:53:14 > 0:53:16- I can't believe it!- £30.- £30!
0:53:16 > 0:53:18Minus £50.
0:53:18 > 0:53:20- Anyway, you parked it.- Yeah.
0:53:20 > 0:53:24- Well played, girls.- Yeah.- You are overall minus £3, which is...
0:53:24 > 0:53:26- That's good. - Yeah, I'm happy with that.
0:53:26 > 0:53:29No bad score. The thing is, don't tell the Blues a thing, right?
0:53:29 > 0:53:32- No, we won't.- Don't mention it. That's what we like.
0:53:39 > 0:53:44Now, Glenda and Kath, have you been talking to the Reds?
0:53:44 > 0:53:47- No.- No!- You've not?- Not a word.- You don't know what their score is?
0:53:47 > 0:53:51Super-duper. Now, how are you feeling, Kath? Are you all right?
0:53:51 > 0:53:54Um...a bit butterfly-ish.
0:53:54 > 0:53:56- Are you?- Yes.- Why would that be?
0:53:56 > 0:53:58Because we want to win. THEY LAUGH
0:53:58 > 0:53:59The same with you, Glenda?
0:53:59 > 0:54:02- I'm raring to go, me.- You're raring to go.- Raring to go, we are.
0:54:02 > 0:54:06The Johnson Brothers coffee service,
0:54:06 > 0:54:08decorated by Gray's, circa 1930,
0:54:08 > 0:54:11lot 374. 15 in the lot,
0:54:11 > 0:54:16and I have interest here with me at 25...£35.
0:54:16 > 0:54:19With me on commission at £35. Here with me at 35.
0:54:19 > 0:54:21At £35, are we all done?
0:54:21 > 0:54:23I will sell, then.

0:54:40 > 0:54:42- £60.- Wonderful. - I don't believe that.
0:54:42 > 0:54:44- Well done, well done. - That's plus £45.
0:54:44 > 0:54:47I take everything back I said about it.
0:54:47 > 0:54:49Good for my auntie and uncle.
0:54:49 > 0:54:50Here comes your knife.
0:54:50 > 0:54:56Lot 375, and who'll start me at £50 for it?
0:54:56 > 0:54:59The letter knife, 50 is bid, thank you. The novelty letter knife.

0:55:02 > 0:55:04Are we all done at 50?
0:55:04 > 0:55:09I will sell, make no mistake, if we're all done at £50.
0:55:09 > 0:55:12Five, just in there, at 55 here.
0:55:12 > 0:55:1360 I'm out. And 5.
0:55:13 > 0:55:16At 65... 70...
0:55:16 > 0:55:19Thank you, anyway. At £70,
0:55:19 > 0:55:21at the very back, then, at £70.
0:55:21 > 0:55:22WOMEN GROAN

0:55:28 > 0:55:31And here comes the Austrian inkwell.
0:55:31 > 0:55:33How about that little novelty for £20?
0:55:33 > 0:55:36£20 anywhere, for the hat?
0:55:36 > 0:55:39For the inkwell. At £20... £20?
0:55:39 > 0:55:4115, then.
0:55:41 > 0:55:44£15. 10 is bid. Second row. Yeah, at £10, I will take it.

0:56:00 > 0:56:04At £15. With the lady, then, at 15.
0:56:04 > 0:56:09£15 is a £5 loss, which means you've made, at the end of this, nothing!
0:56:09 > 0:56:13- We came with nothing, we leave with nothing.- It's unbelievable.
0:56:13 > 0:56:15You enter this world with nothing,
0:56:15 > 0:56:18and you leave this programme with nothing. Nothing!
0:56:18 > 0:56:20- What are you going to do? - No.- You're not going to do it?
0:56:20 > 0:56:24- No, we think nothing's good. - You're not going to...? OK.- Yeah.
0:56:24 > 0:56:26You're not going to go with it?
0:56:26 > 0:56:27- You sure about that?- Positive.
0:56:27 > 0:56:30We're going to sell it anyway, and here it comes.
0:56:30 > 0:56:34The Victorian black-enamel mourning locket, lot 380,
0:56:34 > 0:56:38dated 1848 and engraved.
0:56:38 > 0:56:43Lot 380, and who'll start me at £40 for it, for the mourning locket?
0:56:43 > 0:56:46At £40 anywhere?
0:56:46 > 0:56:48- £40 for the mourning locket. - Hands up, someone, come on.
0:56:48 > 0:56:51Dated 1848, at £40. 30, then?
0:56:51 > 0:56:53£30 for the mourning locket.
0:56:53 > 0:56:55At 30...?
0:56:55 > 0:56:5730's bid, thank you.
0:56:57 > 0:56:59At £30 on my right, at £30.
0:56:59 > 0:57:04Are we all done at £30? I will sell, if we're all done, at £30.
0:57:04 > 0:57:07Yeah, well done, girls. You did the right thing.
0:57:07 > 0:57:08Oh, but I'm sorry.
0:57:08 > 0:57:10Minus £10, that is.
0:57:10 > 0:57:13- Ohh...- Minus £10 you would've been.
0:57:13 > 0:57:14As it is, you've wiped your face.
0:57:14 > 0:57:17You made the right decision there, girls.
0:57:17 > 0:57:21You should walk tall, but don't tell the Reds a thing.
0:57:26 > 0:57:29We've had some close results on Bargain Hunt, haven't we?
0:57:29 > 0:57:34But there is barely anything between the Reds and the Blues today.
0:57:34 > 0:57:37- How exciting is this? Now, have you been chatting?- No, we haven't.
0:57:37 > 0:57:42You haven't been chatting? Well, I tell you, it is incredibly close.
0:57:42 > 0:57:45- In fact, there's only £3 in this. - Ohh!- Oh, my goodness!
0:57:45 > 0:57:49And the team that are the runners-up, sadly, are the Reds.
0:57:49 > 0:57:52- Oh, no!- Oh!
0:57:52 > 0:57:57- The Reds are runners-up by only having lost £3...- Oh, dear.
0:57:57 > 0:58:03..because the Blues are winners, because they got absolutely nothing!
0:58:03 > 0:58:06They wiped their face big time. They don't have a profit or loss, and they've won.
0:58:06 > 0:58:08We had a great programme.
0:58:08 > 0:58:11Join us soon for some more bargain-hunting, yes?
0:58:11 > 0:58:12ALL: Yes!
