0:00:02 > 0:00:04RADIO: '..return to Downing Street.
0:00:04 > 0:00:07'Breaking news - for all you bargain hunters,
0:00:07 > 0:00:13'Tim Wonnacott and the team will be rooting around the Portobello Road antiques market in London today.'
0:00:13 > 0:00:16Cor! Word gets around quick, doesn't it?
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:18 > 0:00:20Mine's a mocha. Mmm.
0:00:47 > 0:00:52Hello and welcome to Bargain Hunt at Portobello in London.
0:00:52 > 0:00:58This is a traditional, hustly, bustly place, where we expect a certain amount of chaos!
0:00:58 > 0:01:02Just have a look at this sneak preview.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05Both teams struggle through the heaving crowds!
0:01:05 > 0:01:08- Push, Mum, push!- I am pushing! I'm pushing, I'm pushing!
0:01:08 > 0:01:11OK, keep going guys, come on.
0:01:11 > 0:01:12They battle to find a bargain.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16I think we're going to leave it there and run back to you if we have to.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Oh, what a shame! It's fabulous, it's gorgeous,
0:01:19 > 0:01:21and I hope it goes to a lovely home.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23But it won't be ours!
0:01:23 > 0:01:28And at the auction, the Reds are a man down and the Blues are about to explode!
0:01:28 > 0:01:31I'm like a volcano about to erupt!
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Super excited!
0:01:33 > 0:01:37So, if that's whetted your appetite, let's have a go at the rules.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44Now that we're in London, let's get into character, like!
0:01:44 > 0:01:48So, we have two teams, each of them have £300 and an hour to shop for their three items.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52And the team wins that makes the most "sausage and mash"
0:01:52 > 0:01:55over at the auction, like!
0:01:55 > 0:02:00But before they set off, like, we ought to meet them, like.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04So, here we are with today's bargain hunters.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08Just look at them, gorgeous. And raring to go.
0:02:08 > 0:02:13For the Reds, we've got the mother and daughter combo from heaven.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15We've got Anne and Olivia. Welcome.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18And we've got friends Hilton and Sharon for the Blues.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- Hi, chaps, how are we doing, all right?- Yes, great.- Brilliant.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Now, are you the Dream Team, you two, for bargain hunting?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Absolutely, Tim.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31I'm really good at knowing what's what, and Olivia is really good at spotting it.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32- Really?- Perfect.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- You're a fan of the programme, Anne? - An enormous fan, Tim.
0:02:35 > 0:02:40I've been watching it since the year dot and I love it.
0:02:40 > 0:02:46And if anybody telephones me between 12:15 and one o'clock, in the week, I tell them where to go!
0:02:46 > 0:02:49You mean you answer the telephone between 12:15 and...?!
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- Well, I'm running a business. - So what is the business that you run from home?
0:02:53 > 0:02:57I'm a miniaturist and I make models, doll's houses mainly.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59And I write about them.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01- Would you like to see one? - Absolutely.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04This is my smallest doll's house.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Look at that! So this is what scale?
0:03:07 > 0:03:11That is 144th scale, which is a doll's house for a doll's house.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13How sweet.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- A doll's house to go inside a doll's house.- Indeed.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20So, Olivia, have you inherited your mother's skill with making things?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Well, somewhat.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26I designed this.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29You've gone and pimped up your Bargain Hunt top!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31That's pretty good, isn't it?
0:03:31 > 0:03:34So tell me about this business about being an escapologist?
0:03:34 > 0:03:37I had a tendency to go missing when I was younger.
0:03:37 > 0:03:43Best story is when I was in Brent Cross and I was hiding behind a clothes rack in a department store.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47And my mum had the entire Brent Cross closed down,
0:03:47 > 0:03:50security guards and police running round looking for me.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53And I was behind the clothes rack, giggling and watching it all happen!
0:03:53 > 0:03:57That's absolutely terrible, isn't it?! What a monster!
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Well anyway, very good luck today. We don't want any escaping, though.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05Now, you two. It says here that you're super competitive. Is that true?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Yes, we are. Definitely.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11- You're fired up for this, aren't you?- Definitely! We want to make money.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13What is your strategy then, Sharon?
0:04:13 > 0:04:16We want to just bamboozle and keep talking, drive them nuts,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19until they give us a bargain to make us go away!
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- Have you ever found a bargain, darling?- Yes. I did at one time - whoo!
0:04:22 > 0:04:28I found it at a car-boot sale, it was a Limoges tea set. And the lady wanted £10, and I got it for £8.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- And I sold it for £170!- You didn't!
0:04:31 > 0:04:32- I did!- Well, that's amazing.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34So let's meet your team-mate, Hilton.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36You're a big Bargain Hunt fan, aren't you?
0:04:36 > 0:04:39I've loved Bargain Hunt since it first started.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42I can tell from your accent, you're not from these parts?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- Cape Town, South Africa.- Cape Town.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45What do you get up to here?
0:04:45 > 0:04:50- I'm a plumber.- So why are you fascinated by antiques?
0:04:50 > 0:04:53Well, coming from South Africa, we don't have antiques
0:04:53 > 0:04:55because the country's such a young country,
0:04:55 > 0:05:02never heard of Clarice Cliff and Susie Cooper and chinoiserie!
0:05:02 > 0:05:06No, quite. Now, you've rubbed shoulders professionally with the stars too, haven't you?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Esther Rantzen loves me.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12- Oh, does she?- Yes.- Does she suffer from much in the way of blockages?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14More leaks than blockages.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16More leaks than blockages!
0:05:16 > 0:05:22Well, we'd better not go into too many secrets about Esther Rantzen's leaks and blockages.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24But it all sounds absolutely riveting.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26I think you're going to do terribly well today.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31Here's the money moment. That's your £300. You know the rules
0:05:31 > 0:05:33and off you go! And very good luck.
0:05:33 > 0:05:37All I can say to you, dear viewers, is, brace yourselves!
0:05:37 > 0:05:41MUSIC: "The Lambeth Walk" # Oi!
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Attempting to do the Lambeth Walk
0:05:44 > 0:05:47are our very own Pearly King and Queen,
0:05:47 > 0:05:52for the Reds, Catherine Southon, and for the Blues, Charles Hanson.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58OK, ladies, what are we going to do?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Blow the lot, or just spend a little?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- Blow the lot. - Blow the lot?- Blow the lot.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- That way? That way?- That way. - Come on, then.- OK. This way!
0:06:05 > 0:06:09- What's the game plan?- We're going to move through as quickly as we can.
0:06:09 > 0:06:15We're going to blind them with science, bamboozle them, pretend our fivers are tenners!
0:06:15 > 0:06:18- And go home with a bargain! - This could be very interesting!
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- We want naked ladies. - We want naked ladies.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24Naked ladies aside, Blues, what you need are three bargains!
0:06:24 > 0:06:28And to add to the fun, not only will you be fighting against the clock,
0:06:28 > 0:06:32but also an enormous number of other shoppers. Just look at 'em!
0:06:34 > 0:06:37- Walk over here, guys.- OK, let's.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Any lovely miniature dolls here, Anne?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Cos you are the miniature doll expert.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45I am, but I don't think they would ever make us money at a general auction.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48It's an antique biscuit barrel! How cute is that?
0:06:48 > 0:06:50And how much is it?
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Oh my goodness! Oh, what a shame.
0:06:54 > 0:06:59It's fabulous, and its gorgeous, and I hope it goes to a lovely home. But it won't be to ours!
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- I love this, I think that's beautiful!- How much is it?
0:07:02 > 0:07:06- Too much for us. - Oh, OK. I think we should move on.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10These is an expensive place, and we have no time.
0:07:10 > 0:07:15Yeah, that's right, Reds, time is ticking, and looking at things that will break the bank
0:07:15 > 0:07:19isn't really the best strategy. I wonder if Sharon's got any ideas?
0:07:19 > 0:07:22I want something... D'you know what, I'd like something unusual.
0:07:22 > 0:07:27- Like what?- D'you know what I mean? Instead of another Beswick dog or a fox.- No, you're quite right.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Do you know what I mean? Another Chinese pot!
0:07:29 > 0:07:32I think go for the bizarre, go for the wacky.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35We are waiting for that little something to just jump out at us.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37That special something.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41These are a lovely shape.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Yes, they are a lovely shape, but they're not silver.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49They're not silver, they're EPNS, electroplated nickel silver. Why were you are attracted to those?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Cos they look slightly Deco.
0:07:51 > 0:07:57- And they look sort of modern and they'd look beautiful on a dining table.- I quite like them.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59They've got that sort of 1930s look.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03I don't think they're terribly old, but they've got that Deco look, haven't they?
0:08:03 > 0:08:07- What's the price on those? - I have 45 on them. You can have them for 38.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- 38.- That's a fair price.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11- 38, to me, still seems a bit... - I think it's a bit steep.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13You couldn't do them for 30, could you?
0:08:13 > 0:08:18- I've just put them out this morning. I bought them on Tuesday. 35.- 35.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Do you think we'd get 35 for them?
0:08:20 > 0:08:24I can see them at auction with a £30 to £40 estimate.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26I think we should just get them. Do you?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28- Yeah, let's do it.- Yeah? Are you sure? You're going to take the risk?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- OK.- Yay!
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- It's done! One item bought.- Yeah! - One item!
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Ah! A decision at last.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39Which still leaves them £265 in the kitty.
0:08:39 > 0:08:45Let's take a peek at how the Blues are doing, because they haven't bought anything yet.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- One more golf. - That's a penknife, isn't it?
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Or a letter opener?
0:08:50 > 0:08:53- I don't like it.- Look at that,
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- you know, golf clubs. - Oh, that's quite good.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Again, it's not very old. - Are you going to let us buy anything today?!
0:08:59 > 0:09:03- No, but we can - hang on, look. - I've got high standards, we want to buy good things!
0:09:03 > 0:09:09Great plan, Charles, but with 15 minutes already gone, you'd better put your foot down!
0:09:09 > 0:09:11What about the old toy cars?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Collectible, Sharon, yes. Dinky, Corgi...
0:09:13 > 0:09:16What's here?
0:09:16 > 0:09:19What we look for with a good -
0:09:19 > 0:09:24well, there we go, 1965 - good box toy, is condition.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Paintwork, quality, rarity.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- It's not a very rare one. What's the asking price, Hilton?- £68.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31No, that can't be the price. Surely.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35It's very nice, it's a good example. What's it worth at auction, though?
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- 30 quid?- You're quite right!
0:09:38 > 0:09:41You're learning, OK?! You're learning, girl!
0:09:41 > 0:09:43Let's go. Too much money!
0:09:43 > 0:09:47I was right - they're going to need to motor, and bag something soon!
0:09:47 > 0:09:52However, I've been let off the leash and sniffed out this little puppy.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Just get a bird's eye of this.
0:09:54 > 0:10:00This front end here is in the form of a double barrelled flintlock pistol.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03But the handle piece is seriously strange,
0:10:03 > 0:10:06because what we've got here is a dog eating a dog.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Made out of a piece of carved mahogany and I would guess
0:10:10 > 0:10:14probably made around about 1790 to 1810.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Technically, this is a piece of treen.
0:10:17 > 0:10:24Very often, you think about treen as being a wooden object that's turned on a lathe. But not necessarily so.
0:10:24 > 0:10:29It's a term that covers all sorts of novelty small carved wooden things.
0:10:29 > 0:10:34And believe you me, this is a rare novelty piece of carved wood.
0:10:34 > 0:10:40It's got a function. If I turn it over and look underneath the dog's belly, it's got a little cover
0:10:40 > 0:10:44with a crude hinge and if I open it up like that,
0:10:44 > 0:10:47it reveals a compartment which is for snuff.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49This is the sort of thing that gentlemen
0:10:49 > 0:10:55around the dining table in 1790 to 1810 would pass around the table.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58You'd take out a pinch of snuff, shove it on the back of your hand
0:10:58 > 0:11:01and you'd have a snort, like that.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03And you'd take on board your nicotine.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06It is as rare as a hen's tooth,
0:11:06 > 0:11:11and that's why the dealer on the stall over there is asking...
0:11:11 > 0:11:15how much? £1,000.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17Stick that up your left nostril!
0:11:17 > 0:11:22Right, back to our teams. And with nearly half the shopping time gone, only the Reds have bought anything.
0:11:22 > 0:11:28I think young Charles will have to take the Blues in hand, if indeed that's possible.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Down here...- Look, naked ladies. - Have you seen something?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- Naked...?- Naked lady.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Oh, right!
0:11:34 > 0:11:36I don't like those, but I quite like that.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39What is that bulb thing, Charles? With the big, round thing?
0:11:39 > 0:11:42No, the glass.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- Probably German or French. Continental.- How much?
0:11:45 > 0:11:50If you bought the original, we're talking probably £30,000 - £40,000.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53We don't have that much! So can you help us?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55This one is £1,200.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- Nice object.- Let's go.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Nice little trinkets, aren't they?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12That's quite nice. Do you not think so?
0:12:12 > 0:12:15No. I think it's ugly.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17- A nice shape though, isn't it? - It is a nice shape.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19I like the stopper.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22That's actually quite pretty.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24It would look lovely in a modern bathroom.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28- What's our plan now, girls? - We're going to hotfoot it back down there and go to the other side.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- Go to the other side? Cos we were mainly concentrating on that side.- Yes, we were.
0:12:35 > 0:12:40I quite like that little carving set down here. Just hidden behind the picture.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Sharon?
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Oh, I like this! Hilton, come and have a look.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48This is a holder for the shank.
0:12:48 > 0:12:49For the ham or the lamb leg.
0:12:49 > 0:12:54- Have you seen things like that before?- Normally, it comes without this.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55But this is a really good quality example.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- Look at the decoration, bell flower ornament.- And that's silver, right?
0:12:59 > 0:13:02It is silver, with a French silver hallmark.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04It's Parisian.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- Late 19th century.- 1890...
0:13:06 > 0:13:08And this is so when you put the thing in there...
0:13:08 > 0:13:10- it stops in there, yeah?- I love it!
0:13:10 > 0:13:13- I think it's really, really cute. - Hilton needs persuading.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- I don't have any faith in it, but we will see at auction.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20Hilton needs persuading. What I would say to you is, it's quality.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- Even though it's got dark marks on it?
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Yeah, look at the quality of the chaste and cast ornaments.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29- Your very best price on this would be...?- £60.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31- I'm giving you a good, good price. - I think it's great quality.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33I really like it.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35- And the original box.- Absolutely.
0:13:35 > 0:13:41I just think, we've only got £70 left, so if we pay 60, we can only give you a tenner.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45If we pay 50, then you've got 20 to buy something.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48- Yeah.- Well, I can make it 60. 60 is my best.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52Even 55 is no good to you?
0:13:52 > 0:13:56OK. I take 55. And you're having the bargain of the day from me.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59And thank you so much!
0:13:59 > 0:14:02The boys certainly didn't get a look in at once Sharon got going!
0:14:02 > 0:14:07And where did she pluck that they'd only got £70 left in the kitty from?
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Well, she did say she'd do anything, and not revealing
0:14:11 > 0:14:15your hand when haggling should help when carving out the best price!
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Whether Charles or Hilton like it or not!
0:14:18 > 0:14:23OK, with one item each, let's stride over and check in with the Reds!
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Wonderful! You wanted walking sticks.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28Look at this - it's a phrenology head.
0:14:30 > 0:14:35- I know you wanted a walking stick, didn't you? You were interested. - There's a £95 one here.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40- Mr Punch.- Look at the parrot.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Is he picking his nose? - It looks like he's picking his nose.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47- How rude!- What do you think that would get at auction?
0:14:47 > 0:14:53I'm not sure that many people would be interested in buying a cane with Mr Punch picking his nose!
0:14:53 > 0:14:58But it's unusual, and you do get a lot of people collecting walking sticks.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00And it's a bit too small for you, but it's my height.
0:15:00 > 0:15:05- One of the important things with canes is to really look at the height.- It's my height.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07- Is it your height? - I'm only 5'4".
0:15:07 > 0:15:10And make sure there's no bend or anything, make sure it's dead straight.
0:15:10 > 0:15:18- Oh, well.- What would be your bottom line on that? 65.- I'm not sure about it.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Because of the silver plate.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24It is a bit tarnished, isn't it? It's a big risk, I think.
0:15:24 > 0:15:2560.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Take 60 for it.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29I'd take 60.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34- That's the lowest.- Do you want to think and come back? What do you think?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36We can run back at the last minute.
0:15:36 > 0:15:37In those crowds?
0:15:37 > 0:15:39It's entirely up to you, ladies.
0:15:39 > 0:15:46- Is Tim going to look at that and say it's clapped out?- It's worn. - Yeah.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48He does, does he?!
0:15:48 > 0:15:53It's not what Tim likes, it's what you two like, and it's what you think is going to make a profit.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57I think we're going to leave it there and we're going to run back to you if we have to.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59- Is that OK?- It's fine.- Thank you.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- Thank you very much.- Ooh, I thought they were going to snap that one up.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04Charles, tell us about this.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07- I think they're very nice. - Charles, look.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08Is that a silver mark or a pretend?
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- It's pewter, it says pewter on it. - What is that on it?
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- It says pewter on it. - These are little touchmarks.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16They are pewter. Well embossed.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19I'd say they're nice, but I can't see a return on them. OK?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21What do you think about that, for Punch?
0:16:21 > 0:16:27I think it's quite nice. I don't know if it'll make any money, though.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29- Is it worth rushing back and seeing if she'll take 55?- We could do.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32At 55, is it going to make a profit?
0:16:34 > 0:16:41- It's still a gamble. But we are really running out of time.- OK, let's go and see.- Careful!
0:16:41 > 0:16:44Will you take 55 for it?
0:16:44 > 0:16:45You're a horrible lot.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47I know, I'm sorry!
0:16:47 > 0:16:49Yes, I will take 55 for it.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53Thank you so much. That's brilliant. Yes, number two!
0:16:53 > 0:16:55That's the way to do it!
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Look!
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Well done, you.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Fantastic. OK, don't get too excited.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- Sorry!- We've still got one item to find.
0:17:05 > 0:17:10I know, we've still got the green perfume bottle, I suppose, as a last resort, but you didn't like that.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12We've still got the whole other side.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14- 20 minutes? - About 20 minutes, I would say.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19- Shall we head down this way, keep to the left and see what we can see? - OK.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21- Onwards and upwards.- Yay!
0:17:21 > 0:17:26So, as they march off, it's time to clock in with Sharon. I mean, the Blues.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- What is it? - It's a railway regulator.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33"Railway regulator", but the train's been rubbed off.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Is that WW...? What does that mean?
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Is that a make? Charles, tell us about this.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43- Hello, sir. Tell us about your little pocket watch, please. What can you tell me?- £65.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46It was made around the 1880s.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49It's a railway regulator, so somebody working on the railway...
0:17:49 > 0:17:51What's a railway regulator as opposed to a normal watch?
0:17:51 > 0:17:53It's...
0:17:53 > 0:17:55- Accurate?- More accurate.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58- Oh, OK, is that what that means? - It's got quite a thick glass to protect it.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Look at the bevelled glass. It's obviously in good condition.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04I was insistent on the other one, and if you're insistent on this, I'm happy.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09- What is the best price you can do on this, please, sir?- 60 really is the best, £60.- £60?
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- Yeah.- How much do you think it's worth?- I think it's a good object.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14- How much? - Hilton's found a good buy here.
0:18:14 > 0:18:20- How much?- I think it's worth between £50 and 80.
0:18:20 > 0:18:2250 and 70. It's a good object.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Hilton's almost there on price.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27So 50 quid then, otherwise we've got no money left.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- Would you take 50 on the railway watch, sir?
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Are you paying cash?
0:18:32 > 0:18:35It's cash, and...
0:18:35 > 0:18:37What else can we offer you?
0:18:37 > 0:18:39- You can offer a lot!- Ahem!
0:18:39 > 0:18:41This is a daytime show, thank you!
0:18:41 > 0:18:4350 is the deal.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46- 50 quid?- £50.- Done. We'll take it.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50It's cute. Thank you very much.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52I think so, yeah.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Right, both teams have two items, and so far they've both spent about the same,
0:18:56 > 0:19:01leaving the Reds with just over £200 and the Blues just under £200.
0:19:01 > 0:19:07So, as we dive into the final ten minutes, will Anne give Olivia a chance to pick something?
0:19:07 > 0:19:11And are the boys able to take control from Sharon?
0:19:11 > 0:19:14- Nah!- Not that. I don't like that.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18- I like it.- You like the lantern? - No, I don't like the lantern. - I like that.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20What do you think it is, Catherine?
0:19:20 > 0:19:24- This looks like it's etched. - Yes, it does look like etched glass. Looks Victorian.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Yeah, probably continental. Doesn't that look lovely?
0:19:27 > 0:19:30It does look lovely. What would you use it for? Flowers?
0:19:30 > 0:19:34I'm not very keen on it, but it's not whether I like it, it's whether it makes a profit.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- This is true.- So we'd better find out how much he wants for it.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39What sort of price is on this?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41- It's 85. 85.- Ouch.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45I personally was quite drawn towards it, cos I think it's quite attractive. What do you think?
0:19:45 > 0:19:49I think it's very pretty, and it's... GLASS RINGS
0:19:49 > 0:19:53- It's whole.- It's whole, it's not in pieces, which is a start!
0:19:53 > 0:19:55You couldn't do it for 60, could you?
0:19:55 > 0:19:59I really can't, I'm afraid. Then I don't make a living!
0:19:59 > 0:20:00I know you've got to make a living.
0:20:00 > 0:20:05I actually paid 80 for it, but I sold something I bought with it.
0:20:05 > 0:20:10I could do 70, but that's got to be it, yeah. What do you think, ladies?
0:20:10 > 0:20:14- How long have we got left?- I think it's probably minutes, so I think we really need to make a decision.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Absolutely. Yes, let's go for it.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19You've got to want it. Do you want this?
0:20:19 > 0:20:22I'd like it for myself, yes, absolutely.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24I can't have it, I've got to sell it!
0:20:24 > 0:20:27- It's a real shame!- I think that's a good starting point.
0:20:27 > 0:20:31I love Victorian and earlier glass, and I think that
0:20:31 > 0:20:35possibly is Victorian, maybe not quite as old as we think.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38- Yeah? - Yeah, I think it's lovely. Go for it.
0:20:38 > 0:20:43Smashing, well done, Reds. However, the Blues had better crack on and find their final piece.
0:20:43 > 0:20:48I wonder who'll haggle for the team this time, eh?!
0:20:48 > 0:20:50That's nice, that's good.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52- That's a lovely decanter. - That's gorgeous.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53It is. It's gorgeous!
0:20:53 > 0:20:57- When they hear you speak, will they whack the price up?- No.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00It's a really good globular decanter.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02This one here, how much is it?
0:21:02 > 0:21:0455.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- There is a little crack on it.- Oh.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10Have a look at it. The stopper is not the original stopper.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12- Thank you, sir.- Tell me about it.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15OK. First of all, there's your stopper.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18- Not the original stopper. - Here's our decanter.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20I'm not too concerned with the stopper, that doesn't concern me.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24The important part is this decanter here.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28There's your hallmark, Chester hallmark, and the date clearly given, around 1910.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Charles, examine it, quick, where's the crack?
0:21:30 > 0:21:33This silver collar, I hope, is original.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35I think it is.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Tell us what it's worth.
0:21:37 > 0:21:42- I can't see a crack at all, can you? - Maybe in the handle?
0:21:42 > 0:21:45- I see the crack. That's it there. - Just there.- What do you reckon?
0:21:45 > 0:21:51Sharon, I think in all honesty, if you can buy this for £40...
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Who's going to buy it?!- Trust me!
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Who wants an old milky glass that they can't even clean?
0:21:56 > 0:21:59- We do like it but we've got £40 left.- Fine.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01- Is that OK? - Course. Let me wrap it up for you.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05Please wrap it up carefully. I'm sorry, cos I know you're not happy.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08You've got your own way all the way, Sharon.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12Really, Hilton? I hadn't noticed(!) But that's your third item bought,
0:22:12 > 0:22:17and it's the sale room that'll decide how good or bad the decisions have been.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19So that's it, the shopping's over.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Well, it is for the teams, anyway.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23But what about the leftover lolly, eh?
0:22:23 > 0:22:29That's the amount of money that's given to the experts to go and find that bonus buy that may or may not
0:22:29 > 0:22:33puff up the teams' profits later over at the auction.
0:22:33 > 0:22:38We'll find out, won't we? But right now, let's have a review of what the Reds bought.
0:22:40 > 0:22:47First up, the Reds picked up a pair of modern silver cruets for a tasty £35.
0:22:47 > 0:22:55Next, they stumbled across a wooden walking stick with a Punchy handle, for £55.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59And finally, they discovered an 18th-century etched glass vase,
0:22:59 > 0:23:02which they hope won't shatter any profits at auction.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Listen, how much did you spend now?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10- £160.- You spent £160.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12I would like £140, yes?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15£140. Catherine, you've got your £140, girl.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17I know, fabulous.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19What are you going to do with it?
0:23:19 > 0:23:25- I've got something very special in mind for these very, very special ladies.- Thank you, Catherine!
0:23:25 > 0:23:27It's a lovely tease, I have to say.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29Why don't we check out what the Blues have bought?
0:23:31 > 0:23:36They found a Parisian cased silver carving set for £55.
0:23:38 > 0:23:43Hoping they're still on track, they paid £50 for a railway pocketwatch.
0:23:45 > 0:23:51And finally, could it be drinks all round at auction when they sell their three-handled glass decanter?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Let's hope so.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- You spent £145.- Correct, sir.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Which is a brilliant number. But not quite enough.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04So, £155 of leftover lolly, please.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Charles, to you. What are you going to spend all that money on?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09I'm going to spend it all, and for Hilton's sake,
0:24:09 > 0:24:12we're going to find something to really inspire him.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Something male.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17No better person to do it, Charles, well done.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19I feel something Arts and Craftsy coming on.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27When you're doing up a house and maybe you're replacing the kitchen
0:24:27 > 0:24:31and you need a new table and chairs, for example, what do you do?
0:24:31 > 0:24:34You go to the shops and you make a selection from what's available.
0:24:34 > 0:24:41This is a house that was built by a man who just hated everything that was available in the shops.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45He not only chose this plot of land and built the house,
0:24:45 > 0:24:52but he had the furniture specifically designed for it in his own unmistakable style.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56This is the Red House, home to William Morris.
0:24:58 > 0:25:03Morris, heralded as the leading figure of the Arts and Crafts movement,
0:25:03 > 0:25:07is probably best known for his unique wallpaper and textile designs.
0:25:07 > 0:25:14So, to help him realise his dream home, he commissioned his friend and architect Philip Webb
0:25:14 > 0:25:19to not only design and build the house, but all the furniture within it.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24Here in the dining room at the Red House,
0:25:24 > 0:25:28we've got some splendid examples of this collaboration
0:25:28 > 0:25:32between these two young and very talented men.
0:25:32 > 0:25:40The most dominating feature of the dining room has to be this dragons' red-painted sideboard.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45It's medieval in style, which is what Morris would have wanted.
0:25:45 > 0:25:51But it has all those Arts and Crafts principles embodied within it.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54There's nothing here that isn't hand-made.
0:25:54 > 0:26:00This curious tri-ridged top with coop-type apertures,
0:26:00 > 0:26:04almost as if you're going to get a pigeon flying in and out of them.
0:26:04 > 0:26:11The railed centre section that might have been used, perhaps, for dinner plates or dishes.
0:26:11 > 0:26:16Definitely not something that you would ever find in a shop.
0:26:17 > 0:26:22To illustrate the very closeness that there was between Morris and Webb,
0:26:22 > 0:26:26the National Trust six years ago made an amazing discovery.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30Underneath the floorboards in one of the upstairs rooms,
0:26:30 > 0:26:34they came across this grubby little piece of paper.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37If we undo it,
0:26:37 > 0:26:41it reveals a letter from Phillip Webb to William Morris,
0:26:41 > 0:26:45dated November 18th 1864.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Morris is living here, he's had a fever,
0:26:49 > 0:26:53he's unwell, he's depressed, and his best friend
0:26:53 > 0:26:58writes him a note to reassure him that everything's going well in the business.
0:26:58 > 0:27:04He says, "We manage to keep things going pretty smoothly at the shop,
0:27:04 > 0:27:09"and it will do some of your brutes of customers good to wait a bit."
0:27:09 > 0:27:13So, he's jollying his friend along.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15How charming.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19Equally charming is the table that the letter sits upon.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Not actually the original table for this room,
0:27:23 > 0:27:29although the drawing for the room does show a Philip Webb-designed table of this size.
0:27:29 > 0:27:35If we hunker down, you can see how the construction here is so peculiar.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39What we've got are supports which are columnar so far,
0:27:39 > 0:27:41and then we have this frilly bit,
0:27:41 > 0:27:48and then it goes down to a square block, and underneath that, some almost bracket-like feet.
0:27:48 > 0:27:53There are no actual medieval examples of refectory tables
0:27:53 > 0:27:57like this or any other, so this is essentially a one-off.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Definitely not something you could buy in a shop.
0:28:01 > 0:28:06The big question is today, of course, are the items that our teams have bought
0:28:06 > 0:28:08going to make it over at the auction?
0:28:19 > 0:28:25We've popped down the road to see auctioneer William Rouse at Chiswick Auctions.
0:28:25 > 0:28:27- Good morning, William.- Good morning.
0:28:27 > 0:28:33For Olivia and Anne, we've got this pair of condiments, which look particularly boring to me.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36- I don't know how you see them? - They are a bit of an unusual buy.
0:28:36 > 0:28:40There isn't really much to them. I guess they're appealing to almost anybody, they're plain enough.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44Yes. I would have thought they were worth about £5. What do you think?
0:28:44 > 0:28:46- My estimate is 10 to 20. - They paid £35.
0:28:46 > 0:28:51Next is their walking stick, with this figure of Mr Punch.
0:28:51 > 0:28:57Not absolutely certain that it started off life with Punch on the end, but it's quite a good subject.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00- I'm sure people look out for Punch-related items.- Yes.
0:29:00 > 0:29:02Let's hope so. What's your estimate?
0:29:02 > 0:29:05I think it's about £30, 40.
0:29:05 > 0:29:09£55 they paid. Now, this etched cut-glass vase.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12It's got some age, and it's quite an interesting design.
0:29:12 > 0:29:16It looks as if it's slightly been through the wars. It's been well used.
0:29:16 > 0:29:20It looks very Brillo-padded in some way.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23Somebody had a bit of a go at that, do you think?
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Maybe it's just been used for putting flowers in for years.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28It is probably a couple of hundred years old.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31They paid £70 for it. Will they get their money back?
0:29:31 > 0:29:34I should think we might struggle, but we might get close to it.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38You might get close to it? Overall, though, what with those hideous condiments,
0:29:38 > 0:29:40they're going to need their bonus buy.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45So, Anne, what has happened to Olivia?
0:29:45 > 0:29:48Very sadly, she's in bed at home with a chest infection.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51She's on antibiotics, and the doctor's forbidden her from coming today.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54- Poor kid.- She's devastated.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56No more so than we are, I tell you.
0:29:56 > 0:30:00- She's done all the hard work with you, and the most fun bit is the auction.- I know.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02- Which she's going to miss. - I'll look after you!
0:30:02 > 0:30:05Between you, you spent £160.
0:30:05 > 0:30:11You gave Catherine £140 of leftover lolly. What did Catherine buy?
0:30:11 > 0:30:13I know you like small things.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15I do! Oh, my goodness, it's tiny!
0:30:15 > 0:30:17Small things come in small packages.
0:30:17 > 0:30:23- What is it?- You've got some little smelling salts, Victorian smelling salts.- It's Victorian?
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Yes. With the original label on.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27- Oh, my goodness.- There we are.
0:30:27 > 0:30:30Gosh, if I take the top out and smell it, will I fall down in a faint?
0:30:30 > 0:30:31You might well do, actually!
0:30:31 > 0:30:33I'd rather you didn't!
0:30:33 > 0:30:35- It's really cute.- It's very sweet.
0:30:35 > 0:30:39I know you like doll's house furniture and miniatures and bits and pieces.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41- A little big to go in a dolls' house, Catherine!- It is a bit big!
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Tell me, what did you pay for it?
0:30:43 > 0:30:46Not very much, actually. I paid £22.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49- 22? And what do you think it'll make? - It's in its fitted leather case...
0:30:49 > 0:30:53- It's very pretty, isn't it?- I think it should make about £30, 40.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Do you really think so? Wow, fantastic.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59Good. You seem to be well pleased with that, which is great.
0:30:59 > 0:31:05But let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's little smelling-salts bottle.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10So, in case you're feeling faint, William, what with the tension and
0:31:10 > 0:31:14whatnot of the auction, you could always have a little whiff of these.
0:31:14 > 0:31:18Reading the front, it says "The Inexhaustible Smelling Salts Company",
0:31:18 > 0:31:24and then actually if you open it and smell it, there's not so much as a sniff to be had from it.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26- Have you had a sniff?- Yeah. - Quite brave of you.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28You've got to catalogue these things fully, don't you?!
0:31:28 > 0:31:30- That's right! - What do you think it's worth?
0:31:30 > 0:31:36Not a terrific amount. Maybe there are bottle collectors that might be interested, but £20 or 30?
0:31:36 > 0:31:39Fine. Catherine paid £22. Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41Now for the Blues.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44First up is this carving set.
0:31:44 > 0:31:48Quite nice to have it complete with the ham bone holder.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50I can't say that that's a common thing, is it, particularly?
0:31:50 > 0:31:55It isn't, and I think, for once, it's something that you could sharpen up and use.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58- Yes, absolutely. What do you think it might bring?- £50, 70?
0:31:58 > 0:32:01They paid £55.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Now, the railway pocketwatch.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06Has that got anything in its favour?
0:32:06 > 0:32:10Having taken it apart, it hasn't got a particularly exciting-looking movement inside.
0:32:10 > 0:32:15- But there is something in there?! - There is something in there, and it seems to be ticking away
0:32:15 > 0:32:19- and there are people who collect railway-related items.- Yes.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21- Assuming they didn't pay too much for it...- They paid 50, actually.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25OK. £40-60, I think, is our estimate.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27OK, tick-tock, jolly good.
0:32:27 > 0:32:32Lastly, they've got this curious three-handled decanter.
0:32:32 > 0:32:37Quite why you need three handles on your flask to pour out a bit of booze, I don't know.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40Maybe if you're passing it round the table or something.
0:32:40 > 0:32:42I suppose so, yes.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44Do you rate that, Will?
0:32:44 > 0:32:50I think I would rate it more if it wasn't a) damaged, and b) had the right top.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54Because people don't really use them anymore, if there's anything wrong with them, they tend to be...
0:32:54 > 0:32:56The kiss of death, yes.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58OK, it's a nice shape, at least.
0:32:58 > 0:33:00How much do you think it's going to bring?
0:33:00 > 0:33:03We ought to get £40 because of the silver top.
0:33:03 > 0:33:04Brilliant. They paid £40.
0:33:04 > 0:33:06- Might just wipe its face, then. - Yeah.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09On the other hand, they might need the bonus buy.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11Let's go and have a look at it.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16Now, Paris and Hilt... I mean, Sharon and Hilton!
0:33:16 > 0:33:19You spent £145, OK?
0:33:19 > 0:33:22You gave £155 to Charles Handsome.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24What did he spend?
0:33:24 > 0:33:29- I bought this for 120.- It's looking small.- Look at that.- OK.
0:33:29 > 0:33:31What I've got here
0:33:31 > 0:33:35is a very, very nice George II-period silver snuff box.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37How old is this one?
0:33:37 > 0:33:44I would suggest, from the type of chaste ornament, it would be probably be around 1740, 1750.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47- What is that? - It's a makers' mark stamp there, which I can't identify, Tim.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50I'm hoping the auction house today has maybe identified it.
0:33:50 > 0:33:53If you were going to buy that, what would you pay?
0:33:53 > 0:34:00- I would say at auction its guide price would certainly stack up well at 100 to 150.- And you paid...?
0:34:00 > 0:34:09I paid 120, but I'm hoping in London, with the market being fairly buoyant for good, small silver
0:34:09 > 0:34:13collectors' items, it might appeal to a good early-silver collector
0:34:13 > 0:34:15who'll recognise the silver mark inside.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19- Do we need to decide now?- No. You don't have to decide right now.
0:34:19 > 0:34:25For the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the snuff box.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28This is rather a mystery, William.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31Are you going to be able to
0:34:31 > 0:34:33- fill us in?- It is. I think that's part of the problem, actually.
0:34:33 > 0:34:38It would be very nice if it had English hallmarks, and if we could identify the maker,
0:34:38 > 0:34:40but there isn't anything that's useful.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- There's something of a mark inside, but it's not very clear.- Mmm.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46But it's got the feel of being 18th century, hasn't it?
0:34:46 > 0:34:49It certainly has an all-right feeling otherwise.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52I can't see anything wrong with it. It's a good thing.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Anyway, this is Charles' bonus buy. He's pushed the boat out.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59He's paid £120. Is there any chance of making it back and more?
0:34:59 > 0:35:02With a hallmark, it would be worth that easily.
0:35:02 > 0:35:07I've put a slightly more conservative estimate on it because of the lack of marks, but 70 to 100.
0:35:07 > 0:35:12That's fair enough, that should tease somebody in. Are you feeling in good voice?
0:35:12 > 0:35:14- Absolutely.- Thank goodness for that!
0:35:23 > 0:35:27So, have you been on to Olivia? Have you told her about the bonus buy?
0:35:27 > 0:35:33- I have told her about it, and she's given me her opinion about what to do about it.- Has she?
0:35:33 > 0:35:36- Which you're going to be very coy about until the last moment? - Absolutely.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39Anyway, first up is the cruet set, and here it comes.
0:35:39 > 0:35:4430A is a silver-plated conical-form salt and pepper.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46Bid £10. With me at £10.
0:35:46 > 0:35:4912. 14. £16.
0:35:49 > 0:35:53In the room at £16. Anybody else? £16 for that salt and pepper.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56At £16 they go.
0:35:56 > 0:36:00Yeah, £16, that's -£19. Bad luck.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04Now, Punch.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09Lot 31A is a walking stick in the form of Punch.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11Start me at £20 for the lot, surely.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15Interesting lot. £20. £10 to go. 10 I'm bid, thank you. 12.
0:36:15 > 0:36:2014. 16. 18. 20.
0:36:20 > 0:36:2222. £22, with Roger at 22.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24- Come on!- 24.
0:36:24 > 0:36:2726. 28. 30. £30 there. At 30.
0:36:27 > 0:36:32Anybody else at £30? For £30, then.
0:36:32 > 0:36:36£30, I'm afraid, is -£25.
0:36:36 > 0:36:4125, 45, £44 is where we're up to.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43-44.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46Olivia's going to be even more ill, isn't she, when she hears this news.
0:36:46 > 0:36:50This Dutch vase, it's looking really cloudy to me.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54Lot 32A is the tapering vase.
0:36:54 > 0:36:58£20 to go for this. Early bit of glassware for £20, surely.
0:36:58 > 0:37:0020 I'm bid. 22. 24.
0:37:00 > 0:37:0326. £26 for that vase.
0:37:03 > 0:37:07£26. 28. 30.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10£30 is all I'm bid, then.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13£30 for the glass. 32.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15£32 there in the scarf.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18Anybody else? At £32, that bit of glassware.
0:37:18 > 0:37:21All done? 32. 205.
0:37:21 > 0:37:25That's 38 short, I'm afraid.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29That's -£82.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32-£82 is a bit of a whacko, isn't it?
0:37:32 > 0:37:35- It's appalling! - It's not great, I'm afraid.
0:37:35 > 0:37:39- I think it's just as well that Olivia's ill, quite frankly.- Yes!
0:37:39 > 0:37:43She's not having to endure this like you are. I'm really sorry about that.
0:37:43 > 0:37:44What are you going to do?
0:37:44 > 0:37:47- Are you going to go with the bonus buy?- Definitely.
0:37:47 > 0:37:50You're definitely going to do that? OK, we're going to go with it.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52Let's hope there's going to be a bit of a smell about that. Here we go.
0:37:52 > 0:37:5736A are the Inexhaustible Smelling Salts. Are they worth £10?
0:37:57 > 0:38:00£10 I'm bid, thank you, in the doorway.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02I thought as much. £10. £12 now.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04Is that 14, Howard?
0:38:04 > 0:38:0714. 16. No?
0:38:07 > 0:38:11£16. £18 there with Keith, at £18.
0:38:11 > 0:38:16Anybody else at £18? With you, sir, £18 I'm going, 570.
0:38:16 > 0:38:19Bad luck, Catherine. That's -£4.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23- It wasn't that bad. - Overall, you are -£86.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26But don't despair, because that could be a winning score!
0:38:26 > 0:38:30- I doubt it! - I very much doubt it too!
0:38:46 > 0:38:49OK, Sharon, just tell me, darling, how excited are you?
0:38:49 > 0:38:53I'm like a volcano about to erupt. Super excited.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55- How are you feeling, Hilton?- Cold.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57Cold? Here comes your carving set.
0:38:57 > 0:39:0152A is the cased French three-piece carving set.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02Start me at £30 for the lot.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04£20 for it to go, surely.
0:39:04 > 0:39:06I'm bid 20. 22.
0:39:06 > 0:39:07£22 for this carving set. At £22.
0:39:07 > 0:39:10Told you.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13- Rusty knife.- £22.
0:39:13 > 0:39:17£22, it's a bloodbath. That's -33.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19That's on our best item, all right?
0:39:19 > 0:39:2353A is a silver-plated pocketwatch.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26The Winegarten's Railway Regulator. 53A.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29Surely for 20 for the little watch? 20 I'm bid. Thank you, Bruno.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32At least somebody's bid 20. Doesn't have to go back to five.
0:39:32 > 0:39:36To my left at £28. 30 now.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Anybody else at £30? It's going to be sold, then.
0:39:38 > 0:39:42- At £30, and going for 30.- It's -£20.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45I'm sorry, but these people have got some serious bargains.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47- Haven't they?- They certainly have.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49You're -55 at the moment.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Now, the three-handled decanter.
0:39:51 > 0:39:5554A is the decanter.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58£20 for the decanter? Surely. Silver-mounted decanter.
0:39:58 > 0:40:01I'm bid 20 there. 22 in there.
0:40:01 > 0:40:0424. 26.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06£26 there. 28, fresh bidding.
0:40:06 > 0:40:0830 here. 32.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11Oh, my God.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12There at 38. Anybody else? £38.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14I'm going to sell it for 38, then.
0:40:14 > 0:40:18- 403.- That's £2.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21- We only lost £2!- 38, that is -£2.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24You are -£55 now.
0:40:24 > 0:40:26What are you going to do? Are you going to go with the snuff box?
0:40:26 > 0:40:28100%, yeah, definitely.
0:40:28 > 0:40:29- Yeah, go for the box.- Yes?
0:40:29 > 0:40:31- Yeah. - Are you going to do it?- Absolutely.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33- What do you mean, "Why not?"? - Charles, you need to save us!
0:40:33 > 0:40:36I would stick. I rated the set.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38Stick.
0:40:38 > 0:40:42OK. As I've been so loud on everything, I'm going to allow you to decide, OK?
0:40:42 > 0:40:45Lose as much as we can!
0:40:45 > 0:40:47- Paris, quiet! - It's going to sell for £40.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50- So why do you want to take it? - OK, then don't take it.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53No, shush, sorry, I just said I'm going to let you decide!
0:40:53 > 0:40:55Come on, it's your decision.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58- Leave it, leave it. - OK, excellent, leave it.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00- We're not taking it. - You're not taking the bonus buy?
0:41:00 > 0:41:02That's it, for certain? Between you?
0:41:02 > 0:41:05You're not going with the bonus buy? They're not now going with it.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08No, you're not going with the bonus buy? Here it comes anyway.
0:41:08 > 0:41:1158A is a Georgian snuff box.
0:41:11 > 0:41:12Start me, £55 to go for it.
0:41:12 > 0:41:16No reaction. £40. £30 for this.
0:41:16 > 0:41:20- Charles!- Useless! You're fired!
0:41:20 > 0:41:22At 30. 35. Thank you.
0:41:22 > 0:41:2540. 45. 50.
0:41:25 > 0:41:2755. 60.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29It's very slow.
0:41:29 > 0:41:33- 70. £70 I'm bid here.- Oh, my God!
0:41:33 > 0:41:35Is that all? At £70.
0:41:35 > 0:41:36Seems cheap for 70.
0:41:36 > 0:41:38You ringfenced your losses at -55.
0:41:38 > 0:41:42That could be a winning score. We'll find out in just a moment.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Well, well, well, well, well. You've been chatting, you lot?
0:41:56 > 0:42:00- No!- Have you talked to Olivia? - Yes, I have.
0:42:00 > 0:42:02Very good. You'll be able to reveal the result in a minute.
0:42:02 > 0:42:08It's not so often that I can stand up here and say that every team has lost on every single item
0:42:08 > 0:42:14but today is one of those rare days when everything has lost all the way down the line.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16Isn't that fun?!
0:42:16 > 0:42:20So it's just a question of the scale of the losses, really.
0:42:20 > 0:42:23I'm afraid the massive overdose today sits with the Reds.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29Despite the fact that we haven't got Olivia here to talk about it.
