0:00:02 > 0:00:07We've come north of the border today to Bonnie Scotland and we've fetched up at an antiques fair practically
0:00:07 > 0:00:12underneath Edinburgh Airport, so fasten your safety belts,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15prepare for takeoff, let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Today we're at the Royal Highland Centre, which is a great hangar of
0:00:49 > 0:00:54a place with 150 stalls for our teams to fly around before they buy.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58Here's a quick snippet of what to expect.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01On Bargain Hunt today will the Blues' dreams be shattered?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03You're not having anything... Oh, this is a nightmare!
0:01:03 > 0:01:05This is an absolute nightmare.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07I shouldn't have mentioned it!
0:01:07 > 0:01:10And speed is of the essence for the Reds. Well, this is ridiculous.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12I mean, we're going to finish early today.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16- Somebody said the bar opens in ten minutes!- We'll be finishing before the news the way you lot are going.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20With the esteemed bargain hunting title up for grabs who will be our winning team?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23- Yes!- Well done.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26I'm taking it all back.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30All that's still to come, but let's remind ourselves of the rules.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34We have two teams each with £300 and an hour to shop for three items.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38The team that makes the most profit at auction wins and we also
0:01:38 > 0:01:43chuck in a whole crew of experts to help them along in their journey.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48Right now, though, let's check out the teams as they check in.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Today we've got two teams of best friends.
0:01:52 > 0:01:57For the Reds we've got Colin and Fraser and for the Blues we've got Beryl and Ellen.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- Welcome, teams. - Hi.- Hello.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Now, Colin, where did you two meet?
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Myself and Fraser are both firefighters at Bathgate Fire Station
0:02:03 > 0:02:08where I started year ago and been friends ever since.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10We're all quite close to each other, so...
0:02:10 > 0:02:14And do you do anything in your break time particularly in your station?
0:02:14 > 0:02:19Well, Bargain Hunt is lunchtime, we watch Bargain Hunt every... Every time we're on.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23So are they all going to be roaring with laughter when they see this show down in the station?
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Roaring!
0:02:24 > 0:02:28I'm sure there might be a... A wee joke or two thrown about.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31I'll bet there is. Now, when you're not firefighting what do you like to get up to, Col?
0:02:31 > 0:02:36I do a number of things. I follow my local speedway team, the Edinburgh Monarchs, up and down the country.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40I also play for a tenpin bowling team just along in Murrayfield.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43But you were also junior champion, is that right?
0:02:43 > 0:02:48I won the Junior European Open when I was 16, but it was just a handicap event, but still it all counts!
0:02:48 > 0:02:52Don't you love the modesty of the man? I mean, we've got a European champion here!
0:02:52 > 0:02:54- That must have been exciting.- It was, yeah, it was a good day, yeah.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57And do you know anything about antiques?
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Just what I see on Bargain Hunt every lunchtime.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Ah, you're going to be a genius, then!
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Fraser, it says here that you're interested in kickboxing.
0:03:04 > 0:03:10Yeah, I just used to run a kickboxing club in my previous life before I joined the Fire Service.
0:03:10 > 0:03:14And does this mean you kick through a block of wood and all that kind of thing?
0:03:14 > 0:03:17If somebody attacks you with a block of wood, yeah, you could certainly kick through it!
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Are you going to show us any of your moves, them? What's...
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Absolutely not.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- Are you not?- No, no!- You sure? I mean, you could... You know?
0:03:24 > 0:03:27- I've not kickboxed in a wee... In a while.- Have you not?- Not in a while.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29He's not done his warm up.
0:03:29 > 0:03:34Now, boys, undoubtedly you're going to make a massive profit today, right? That's the ambition anyway.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37What are you going to do with that profit if you make it?
0:03:37 > 0:03:44If we make a profit, which hopefully we will, we're going to donate it to the Ewan Williamson Memorial Fund.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49He's a colleague of ours and a firefighter who died in a fire earlier this year.
0:03:49 > 0:03:54- Oh, dear.- So our watch, Bathgate White Watch, have agreed whatever we make they will... They'll match.
0:03:54 > 0:03:59- So you're going to double it up? - We'll double it up and put it into the Ewan Williamson Memorial Fund.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01That is a real challenge, that. How exciting.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Anyway, brilliant and good luck. - Thanks.- Now for the girls.
0:04:05 > 0:04:06- How are you both?- Delighted.
0:04:06 > 0:04:11- Good. How long with you two been friends, Beryl?- About 30 years.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13- Have you?- Yes.- How did you meet?
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Through the theatre.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Well, amateur theatre.
0:04:17 > 0:04:18Ellen's a very good actress.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21She appeared in my first ever play what I wrote!
0:04:21 > 0:04:24So you're a playwright?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27Of the Morecambe and Wise sort of fraternity.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Yes, lovely. Nothing better than that.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Well, Ernie Wise, I mean, what an inspiration.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33I know, brilliant.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- And your love of the theatre has taken you into journalism?- Yes.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39And you had your own column in the Scotsman Magazine.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- I did, yes.- What was that? - Shopping Round With Beryl.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45- Ah! Did that take you round the stores or...- Yes, it did.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Now, Ellen, tell us about your love of the theatre.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Well, I just like acting...
0:04:50 > 0:04:53The fool usually!
0:04:53 > 0:04:58Beryl usually casts me as the bitchy woman.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Oh! She's your friend!
0:05:02 > 0:05:06I understand you like walking and have an interest in people's feet.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Yes. I'm a leader in the walking group for Fit For Life,
0:05:10 > 0:05:16attached to the health service, and take out old fogeys like myself
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- for a weekly walk. - And how long are the walks? - An hour to an hour and a half.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- Oh, are they?- Yeah.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26Well, that's a nice thing to do. And what's your connection with their feet?
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Well, I... I like reiki and I do the reiki through the feet.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31- Are you a practitioner or... - I am.- A recipient?
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Well, no, I do both, actually.
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- Can you do it to yourself? - Yes.- Oh, you can?- Yes.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40So you get hold of your own foot then and prod around with it, is that the plan?
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Not that I do, I pay someone to do it instead.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46Oh, you pay someone to do it. Brilliant. Well, this all sounds very relevant, good.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49And how do you rate your chances against these big butch firemen?
0:05:49 > 0:05:52- Oh, wonderful.- Does it?
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Yes.- Yes. You're not scared at all by the fact that...- Not at all. - They're going to be terribly fit...
0:05:55 > 0:05:57- They just young laddies. - And fleet of foot?
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Anyway, here we go, £300.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03You know the rules. You have an excellent incentive to make a huge profit today,
0:06:03 > 0:06:08and off you go and very, very, very good luck.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Reiki, huh?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15And now it's time to meet the rest of today's crew.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Looking after the Reds is Paul Laidlaw
0:06:19 > 0:06:23and the Blues are under the safe supervision of Catherine Southon.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30You look like you are really ready to go for this.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31We are really, really ready.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Shall we go?- Yes.- Let's go.
0:06:33 > 0:06:38And so with the clock ticking away, the team start their shopping and the Reds are off to a flying start.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40See those we beak dish...
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Nice things down there, look at that! - Yeah.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47You need to look at... Real quality. You know, something of raw quality.
0:06:47 > 0:06:52- Yeah.- Of course. - Yeah?- Of course, yeah.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55It seems Paul and the Reds have found something to rattle on about.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57A rattle as well. A really love the baby's rattle.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Yeah, you have a look at that, OK, and we'll follow our noses.
0:06:59 > 0:07:04- Right, OK.- Now, they fake these to oblivion, and that's crying out right straight away.
0:07:04 > 0:07:05A nice little bone handle, dead right.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09It'll have decent assay marks on it.
0:07:09 > 0:07:10- Oh... - A wee bit of repair. Do you see that?
0:07:10 > 0:07:14- Yeah, uh-huh.- It's just been... Of course it would, a bairn's had it!
0:07:14 > 0:07:17- Of course.- I mean, I'm no losing sleep over that.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20And, you know, it's rattle, it's a soother. It's a whistle, rattle.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24Is it missing something there, the wee...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26See that? Is that... Is there something missing off of that?
0:07:26 > 0:07:28No, it's think that's simply a suspender.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- I think that would have had a ribbon or whatever, yeah.- OK.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- Have you an opinion on that. - I quite like that.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36- It's unusual, yeah. - It just jumped out at me.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Pretty little thing. I'm making sure...
0:07:38 > 0:07:43These are called crotal bells and I'm making sure they're all pukka to it.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- That looks OK. But, price...- Yeah.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48- What would... What would be your... - What I see, the guy's no...
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- That guy's no bad, but I'd want a favour in all honesty.- OK, right.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- Have you got a good feeling about that?- Aye.- Can you help us on that?
0:07:54 > 0:07:56What's...
0:07:56 > 0:08:02You know our plight here, so if you can be as brutal as you can, my man.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06You've got...
0:08:06 > 0:08:07Is that... That's 80 on there.
0:08:07 > 0:08:0980 on there.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- 50 quid. - It's up to you, but I think...
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I mean, what I think it's going to make,
0:08:14 > 0:08:17I think you're going to make a profit. That's 50 to 80 quid's worth.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20I think so, my friend. Thank you, my friend, that's excellent.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22- Gentleman, gentleman. - Thanks very much, smashing.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Well, I'm no a guy who comes here and loses money.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30You've no met Bargain Hunt before, clearly! That's what we do!
0:08:30 > 0:08:32My word that was a speedy purchase, Reds!
0:08:32 > 0:08:36Meanwhile the Blues seem keen on browsing.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Do you like a card? Would you like my card?
0:08:45 > 0:08:50Paul appears to have spotted an unusual looking item for the Reds.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51- Any ideas?- No idea what it is.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53It looks like a Morse code machine.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57It does, doesn't it? But it is Victorian
0:08:57 > 0:08:59quack therapy apparatus.
0:08:59 > 0:09:06- So this is late 19th century, some of them work on a little crank drive and a wee dynamo or whatever...- OK.
0:09:06 > 0:09:11And it generates static electricity and they thought that this was good for rheumatism and so on.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13You could cure nigh on anything with these things.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16A Victorian TENS machine!
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Look, you're not a million miles off, are you?
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Of its kind I think it's little charmer.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26You see plenty of lacquered brass here, there are plenty of little... You've got a little rheostat.
0:09:26 > 0:09:32There's plenty going on there and I'll tell you, what a wee talking point that is.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36And everything is inside the drawer, the leads, the terminals and...
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- Cutting to the chase? - The instruments of torture.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- Cutting to the chase?- The best I would do on that would be £30.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47It says £2.50 on the bottom!
0:09:47 > 0:09:48£2! That tells you how old it is.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Throw in a shilling.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53We like this, we do like it.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- What's the absolute best? - That was my absolute best...
0:09:57 > 0:10:03- £30.- To be perfectly honest. OK, I'll take a couple of pounds off it, but that's really all I can do.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05I could go 28.
0:10:05 > 0:10:1028. What do you think, Colin?
0:10:10 > 0:10:12- 25, please. Just...- No, I can't.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- No, you can't go that...- Where are you going to find another one?
0:10:16 > 0:10:18That's the best I could do.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- I think you should respect that. - Right, OK.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22- I think we should respect that. - Colin?- I'm happy with... - Are you happy with that?
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- £28, yeah. - OK.- Done.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Right, lovely.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28So that's two in the bag for our Red lads.
0:10:28 > 0:10:33It seems their firefighting speed training is coming in very useful.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Now, ladies, you're dithering.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Have you finally found your first purchase?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Oh, look at that.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- Murano glass.- Oh, Murano glass is...
0:10:43 > 0:10:45- Is...- Yeah.- Is a make.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47How do you know it's Murano?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49It should be on it, shouldn't it?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51It probably says, yeah. No, it's Murano.
0:10:53 > 0:10:54I like that, do you not?
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Well, it's nice for putting sweeties in and things like that.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- And how much is it? - £12 that's what it's...
0:11:00 > 0:11:02- I mean, that's... - Can we go for that?
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Can you haggle that down to a bit less?
0:11:05 > 0:11:08You can do whatever you like.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Something is telling me Catherine doesn't seem convinced
0:11:11 > 0:11:15but bargain hunting Beryl rushes off to start negotiations.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20Now, what have our firefighting Reds spotted?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Hey, they're more your... - A fire truck!- Do you think?
0:11:22 > 0:11:24That would go with your collection in the house!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Aye, that'd be right!
0:11:26 > 0:11:30That has got your name written all over it!
0:11:30 > 0:11:37Beryl seems to have taken matters into her own hands and set up a deal on the Murano glass.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40She'll take 8.50 for it instead of 12.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44What? 8.50? Beryl, you're not listening to me at all, are you?
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- I know, but I like it and it's speaking to me.- Is it?- Yes.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51- But it might not speak to anybody else!- At 8.50 can we argue?
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- But look, look! - At 8.50 are we going to argue?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55- It's horrible.- It's all...
0:11:55 > 0:11:57It's all worn as well.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59It's lost its...
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- It's just... - Sheening.- You see how it's not...
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I mean, that's not quality.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06- But I like it.- Look at the colours though, they're all...
0:12:06 > 0:12:08- They're not sort of...- I like it.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10You buy whatever you like.
0:12:10 > 0:12:138.50. 8.50. 8.50, we're not losing a lot of money.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16- We have really got our work cut out with you.- You have.
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- I'll give in for the next one, but I'll go for this.- Can we make up...
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Can we now from now on?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- Right, where do I put this now? What do I do with it.- Do you want it?
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- Yes.- Well, you'd better go and buy it then because we don't like it. She's not listening to me.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- No, no.- She's not taking any notice.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Oh, I just can't... I just can't even look at it!
0:12:32 > 0:12:34- Let's go, let's go.- Let's go.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38Clearly Catherine is not happy, but, hurray, the Blues have made their first purchase.
0:12:38 > 0:12:42Now at these antiques fairs you really need to take the lead if
0:12:42 > 0:12:45you're going to sniff out the best bargains.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48Anyone for walkies?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Isn't that a gem?
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Do you like him? He's called Bart,
0:12:53 > 0:13:00made around about 1880 to 1900 and if you give him at tap it's hollow,
0:13:00 > 0:13:08but basically baked and shaped paper, and then that paper is treated with a paint effect and
0:13:08 > 0:13:13then flock, which is mashed up felt, is just dribbled over the wet paint.
0:13:13 > 0:13:19He's even got naturalistic colouring on his bottom. Don't you love that?
0:13:19 > 0:13:24This lovely black spot, which covers up his back end.
0:13:24 > 0:13:29Now this was designed for a wealthy child to tow around in the drawing
0:13:29 > 0:13:34room because underneath his feet are little castors.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38He's got this bolt on feature of a wobbly head and
0:13:38 > 0:13:42if you were dragging him around the house he might say to you,
0:13:42 > 0:13:48"Uh-uh, no want to go walkies today!"
0:13:48 > 0:13:53And there is one additional feature, which any child would adore.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56They simply yank the lead and he goes...
0:13:56 > 0:13:59TOY DOG RASPS
0:14:01 > 0:14:05Now do you understand why he's called...
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Bart?
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Brilliant, isn't it? What's it worth?
0:14:10 > 0:14:15The proud owner up the way wants 1,200 notes for it.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17What do you think about the show so far?
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Rubbish!
0:14:19 > 0:14:24Right then, firefighters, appropriate attired, we have spent half an hour, but two good things.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26- Feeling all right about that, yeah? - Quite happy with that, yeah.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- I think you should be, but we'd better keep going, yeah? - OK, we'll move on.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30You're not having anything! Oh, this is a nightmare.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32This is an absolute nightmare!
0:14:32 > 0:14:34I shouldn't have mentioned it!
0:14:34 > 0:14:39Looks like Beryl is certainly on a mission and something else has caught the interest of the Reds.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41- It's got to be a good thing that, surely?- What is it?
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Come on, we're all boys here!
0:14:44 > 0:14:46- What is it?- A powder flask?
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- A powder flask. Is that talcum powder?- Gunpowder.
0:14:49 > 0:14:50Gunpowder flask.
0:14:50 > 0:14:58This is a Victorian, it's going to be in 1850, 1860 and this is what your...hunter...
0:14:58 > 0:14:59this is not a military piece, this is...
0:14:59 > 0:15:04Although the military carried them to an extent, this is a huntsman piece.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08He's out there with his game bag and his percussion fowling piece
0:15:08 > 0:15:14at this period looking for birds, let's say, and this is where he keeps his charge.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18So he's got his shot, that's what he fires, this is what propels it.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22I've got... Here's a bonus for you, I don't know if whether you're catching this, here's a bonus for you.
0:15:22 > 0:15:29That's what I was looking for and I couldn't see it, it's by Sykes, one of the names in this field.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31It's no bad that. It's a decorative object and boys
0:15:31 > 0:15:36and their toys, they love their guns, they love their shooting accessories, do we love the price? £44.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38It's perfectly reasonable at that. But you would...
0:15:38 > 0:15:40You know what's worrying me?
0:15:40 > 0:15:43I don't know whether it's Great Western Auctions in the middle of Glasgow.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- Right, sure.- Where I am,
0:15:45 > 0:15:46- a rural environment...- Yeah.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48I think that's more of a goer.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51I just... I think it's the wrong piece for the saleroom.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53- OK.- But I think it's a good thing. What do you think?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56I thought a gun piece would be good for Glasgow!
0:15:56 > 0:15:59THEY LAUGH
0:15:59 > 0:16:04Can you say that? Is there any way on God's earth that could be 20 quid?
0:16:04 > 0:16:07At 20 I'm going to say it's a no-brainer, take a punt, guys.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Let me be a daylight robber, would you?
0:16:10 > 0:16:13- Since it's you.- At 20 quid it's a deal.- 20 quid it's a deal.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15You're a gentleman. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you for that.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18I'm not, I'm soft!
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- Thanks very much. - Thank you very much.
0:16:20 > 0:16:2536 minutes into their shop, I just can't believe the speed of today's Red team!
0:16:25 > 0:16:28Well, this is ridiculous. I mean, we're going to finish early today.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32- Somebody told us the bar opens in 10 minutes!- We'll be finishing before the news the way you lot are going!
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- That's brilliant though, isn't it? - Yes.- Are you happy?- Very happy.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38- Oh, yeah. - It's all you clannish Scots!
0:16:38 > 0:16:40THEY LAUGH
0:16:40 > 0:16:44So, with the shopping over, the Reds can even take time out for a cuppa.
0:16:44 > 0:16:50Meanwhile, all is not quite so Rosy Lee for the Blues.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52- That's nice.- That thing?
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Yes. You could change that into a lamp if you wanted to.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57I think that is horrendous.
0:16:57 > 0:17:00Well, I had to put up with your horrendous thing a minute ago!
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Excuse me, is that for weeing into when you're really desperate?
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- We have clearly got very different tastes.- Well, I like that.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- This is Doulton, but that's a lot more trendy, isn't it?- Yes.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11don't think it's a great age to it.
0:17:11 > 0:17:16It's possibly '60s, '70s. It's got that nice sort of flambe affect.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Remember that word, flambe.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- Yes.- Flambe. It's more sort of trendy and it's more now.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23- A bit younger.- Have a little feel.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Actually, I'm not going to give it to
0:17:25 > 0:17:27you, I'm going to give it to you. Have a little feel.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30- Yes, I do, I like this.- The shape of it is quite nice as well, isn't it?
0:17:30 > 0:17:31- The shape, yeah.- It's nice, all...
0:17:31 > 0:17:33- Beautiful.- It's nicely fashioned.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35£120 that's retail price.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36I mean, that's a lot of money.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Can we try and get a bit more off that?
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Try and see if you can squeeze it down a bit more.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Beryl the Peril negotiates the deal and gets the vase
0:17:44 > 0:17:49for the red hot price of £69.50, but time is marching on and, ladies, you need to make another purchase.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53It strikes me that things are about to get slightly hammy.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Just have a little look here.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58You've seen something earlier.
0:17:58 > 0:17:59Well, I want you to have a...
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Hold that and tell me what you think.
0:18:02 > 0:18:03What do you think it is?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Well, there's something got to go in there and it gets screwed in tight.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- What you do, you can imagine...- Yes.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15- The manor, the man of the manor, sitting at his table...- Yes.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17- Putting his bit of ham in there.- Ham?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- Put it in there. - Or mutton.- Tighten it up...
0:18:19 > 0:18:23Or mutton. Tighten it up.
0:18:23 > 0:18:29- Oh, my God. A lovely tartan, the McGregor tartan.- Oh, that's lovely.
0:18:29 > 0:18:30- Did it belong to a McGregor, then? - I quite like...
0:18:30 > 0:18:32What I quite like is this little...
0:18:32 > 0:18:35Yeah, I do quite like that crest.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Sadly it's not silver.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Is it plated, is it? - It's plated. Sheffield plate.- Yeah?
0:18:40 > 0:18:47I just thought it was quite an unusual thing. I haven't seen anything like that.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48- You're not impressed, Ellen?- No.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51I want Ellen to have a little bit of a choice here because she hasn't...
0:18:51 > 0:18:56I like the idea, but I don't think anybody now would, unless they're collecting things for...
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- Something unusual. - Plays and things like that.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02- What's your best price on that one? - £70.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05No, we'd have to get that... For about 50 I'd give it a whirl.
0:19:05 > 0:19:10- I've would say 50 would be top price on that and that's being generous. - No. Sorry.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14No, it's all right, don't be sorry, just be generous and go down a bit.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Can you go down any more on that?
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- What did I say 70?- 60 you said.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21- No. I didn't say 60!- Yes, you did,
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- we heard you!- Give me £50 and you can take it away.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28- £50!- Do you really want this though, ladies, I just feel that I'm...
0:19:28 > 0:19:33It's different, it's quirky and it's £50 and so therefore...
0:19:33 > 0:19:34- And it's got age about it. - You've got a sporting chance of
0:19:34 > 0:19:38making a profit if you buy it at 50. I really do, actually.
0:19:38 > 0:19:44So with the third and final purchase in the bag, the Blues place their hopes on the stallholder's advice.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47We'll have to see how it fares at the auction.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Right, that's it.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Prepare for landing, time's up.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55Now it's up to our expert to spend the leftover lolly on the bonus buy, which can make all the difference
0:19:55 > 0:20:01when it's produced over at the auction, but right now let's find out what the Reds have bought.
0:20:01 > 0:20:05First the Reds acquired a Victorian silver soother for £50.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08For an electric shock therapy machine,
0:20:08 > 0:20:15they handed over an absolutely sparkling £28.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18And, finally, Colin and Fraser forked out
0:20:18 > 0:20:23an explosive 20 quid on a black powder gun flask.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- Good cup of tea, chaps? - Oh, lovely. Thanks.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28Well, when you finish early you can afford to, can't you, really?
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- So, let me see, how much did you spend?- £98.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Which is truly pathetic, actually. £98.
0:20:34 > 0:20:38I mean, how can you be grinning like Cheshire cheeses all of you at £98?
0:20:38 > 0:20:41- I don't understand it.- You're forgetting you're in Scotland.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43"We're in Scotland." I love it!
0:20:43 > 0:20:46£202 of leftover lolly, then.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47Which is a heck of a lot.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49- £202.- Now we're going to pass this over to the man, right.
0:20:49 > 0:20:54- OK.- If I was a gambling man I would gamble that he won't spend much of that.
0:20:54 > 0:21:00- Well, in this instance, Tim, I do have my eye on something rather expensive.- Might it be three figures?
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Do you see the sweat? It could be.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Paul Laidlaw spending three figures on a bonus buy?
0:21:05 > 0:21:08This has never been seen before. Anyway, good luck with that.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blues have bought?
0:21:12 > 0:21:15The Blues' first purchase was a Murano glass bonbon dish,
0:21:15 > 0:21:19which cost them a sweet £8.50.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24A Royal Doulton flambe vase set them back £69.50.
0:21:24 > 0:21:29And, finally, this Sheffield plated mutton bone holder
0:21:29 > 0:21:32was picked up for £50.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Well, that was a real sweat, wasn't it?
0:21:34 > 0:21:38- Tim. Yes, a challenge.- A challenge.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Did it do your head in, Ellen?
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- It did a little bit.- Yeah, yeah.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Not the only one's head in
0:21:44 > 0:21:48either, Beryl the Peril, eh? So, what exactly did you spend, baby?
0:21:48 > 0:21:56- £128.- You spent 128, so I'm going to take £172 of leftover lolly.- Oh, if you insist.- Well, I do insist.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59- It's always difficult for you to hand over the cash, isn't it?- Yes.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02And it goes straight to Catherine. Are you going to spend the lot?
0:22:02 > 0:22:03I'm going to spend it all.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07I'm going to leave nothing and I'm going to buy the best piece for you two because we need something decent.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Wonderful. Something decent.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Yes, I agree with that.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13Well, that's a vote of confidence anyway! Good luck, Catherine.
0:22:13 > 0:22:18Now, while both of our experts are out shopping for their bonus buys
0:22:18 > 0:22:20I'm popping down to a local maritime museum.
0:22:30 > 0:22:37Trinity House in Leith is probably the finest museum of shipping artefacts in Scotland.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40This beautiful 19th century building was commissioned by John Hay,
0:22:40 > 0:22:45master of Trinity House for 12 years from 1808.
0:22:48 > 0:22:55And he was an enterprising fellow because not only did he instigate the construction of
0:22:55 > 0:23:02this magnificent neoclassical villa, but he was directly responsible for the dynamic
0:23:02 > 0:23:07and incredibly impressive plasterwork in this, the convening room.
0:23:07 > 0:23:12And the plasterwork, which was done by local firm John Dow & Co,
0:23:12 > 0:23:19is sculptural because it's alto-relievo, in other words the plaster projects quite a long way
0:23:19 > 0:23:27from the flat surface of the ceiling, giving you an opportunity to mould and define real figures.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30If we look at this end, there are two figures,
0:23:30 > 0:23:36one of King Neptune and the other of patriotic Jolly Jack Tar,
0:23:36 > 0:23:43sporting the Union Flag, and at the other end we've got an officer standing with his telescope.
0:23:43 > 0:23:51One feels perhaps he should be looking out to sea and spotting the vessels sailing across the middle of
0:23:51 > 0:23:57the panel, but actually I think he's got his telescope on the young lady
0:23:57 > 0:23:59on the opposite shore.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03Perhaps he's been at sea for a long time!
0:24:05 > 0:24:11Here on the long table in the convening room, we've got a fantastic array of marine objects
0:24:11 > 0:24:18that form part of the museum's collection, including some real rarities like this.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22The first question is what do you think it is?
0:24:22 > 0:24:29Well, I'll put you out of your agony, it's called a backstaff, which is a navigational instrument.
0:24:29 > 0:24:37Until the 1590s, when John Davies invented this, navigators had to use a cross-staff,
0:24:37 > 0:24:44which involved you taking a sight of the sun by pointing your instrument actually at the sun.
0:24:44 > 0:24:51What John Davies came up with was this backstaff idea and what you do is to have the backstaff
0:24:51 > 0:24:59over your shoulder like this, you'd look through this little slitty here and determine where the horizon is
0:24:59 > 0:25:05and then at noon measure the angle of the sun and then you could do your calculation.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Brilliant.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Perhaps the most eye-catching object
0:25:11 > 0:25:17is this model of a lighthouse, the Bell Rock Lighthouse,
0:25:17 > 0:25:24which is about to celebrate its 200th birthday and it is the first
0:25:24 > 0:25:29sea-swept lighthouse to be built anywhere in the world and its construction,
0:25:29 > 0:25:34of course, was instigated by Trinity House here in Leith.
0:25:34 > 0:25:40The big question today is, of course, are our teams going to be all at sea over at the auction?
0:25:55 > 0:25:59Well, we've trotted across the way from Edinburgh to Glasgow, Anita would say going
0:25:59 > 0:26:04in the right direction here, and we've come to Great Western Auctions to be with Anita Manning.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07- It's a treat to be here, Anita. - Welcome, Tim.
0:26:07 > 0:26:14Now, for the Red team, Colin and Fraser, their first item is this little baby's soother, so called.
0:26:14 > 0:26:19I don't think it would do much soothing with that kind of ivorine end on it.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Do you think it had a bit of coral originally?
0:26:21 > 0:26:25It could have. I mean, it's a little Victorian baby's play centre...
0:26:25 > 0:26:31- Yes.- Were you've got the bells to rattle and whistle and a little bit of ivory to chew...- Yes.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34- If you're hungry! - If you're hungry, poor little toad.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38- Anyway, I suppose these things are collectable, are they, Anita? - Yes, that's right.- Yeah.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42They're collected by people who like silver, they're collected by people
0:26:42 > 0:26:47- who maybe like children's things, you know, toys.- People who never grew up. - Dolls. Yeah.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50- Just like me. - OK, baby, what's it worth?
0:26:50 > 0:26:54- 40 to 60.- Very good. £50 they paid, so that's fair enough, isn't it?
0:26:54 > 0:26:56Now you've got this electric shock machine.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58Not quite sure where you apply the electric shock
0:26:58 > 0:27:01or how to go about this, Anita, but I suspect you'll enlighten us.
0:27:01 > 0:27:06- While I'm hoping to give you a surprise with that rather than a shock.- What do you think it's worth?
0:27:06 > 0:27:14Well, I think these things are great fun, wacky Victorian medical things.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- £30 to £50.- Fair enough, £28 they paid.- Ah, right.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18So that's pretty good, isn't it?
0:27:18 > 0:27:22We're building up to what might be a reasonable profit so far.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27And, lastly, they've got the Sykes copper powder flask, which is quite a good thing, isn't it?
0:27:27 > 0:27:33Yeah, well, Sykes is a good name and if people are buying powder flasks they want to see that name.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36This is a rather nice one and the decoration is very pleasing.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39- Yes.- So I like that. - These bits of leaf and whatnot.
0:27:39 > 0:27:44Yeah. I've estimated it at 25 to 35, so I'm predicting a profit.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48Very good. Well, between you two canny Scots, I daresay we'll do all right,
0:27:48 > 0:27:52but just in case let's go and have a look at the bonus buy.
0:27:52 > 0:27:59So, Colin, Fraser, the exciting moment, what did Paul Laidlaw spend your £202 of leftover lolly on?
0:27:59 > 0:28:02- Let's have a little look at this. - Hey, it's tall and skinny!
0:28:03 > 0:28:09Well, then, gentlemen, what think you of that? Yeah?
0:28:09 > 0:28:11It's big.
0:28:11 > 0:28:16This is a telescopic standard oil lamp in its first incarnation,
0:28:16 > 0:28:22converted early 20th century, as one would, to electricity.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26In this original state, in this quality...
0:28:26 > 0:28:33- The quality of these casts, the swags here, these embellishments, is just yummy, what can I say?- How much?
0:28:35 > 0:28:37Show me the money!
0:28:37 > 0:28:40You are unimpressed with this Georgian revival piece.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44It is lovely, it is lovely, but how much is it is - the important question.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47Look, I paid £150 for that.
0:28:47 > 0:28:51At auction I'd love to see two private punters
0:28:51 > 0:28:56take a real loving for it and pay 225 and give you a respectable profit.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58Do you personally like it, Frase?
0:28:58 > 0:29:03- I do like it, yeah.- Yeah?- I like that. I don't know if it would go in my living room, but I do like it.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06- So we have to hold on to those thoughts, right?- Certainly.
0:29:06 > 0:29:11The possibility of £200 or £225 maybe if all goes well with Anita,
0:29:11 > 0:29:13and talking of Anita, let's find out,
0:29:13 > 0:29:17for the audience at home, what she thinks about Paul's standard lamp.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19Anita, this is what they call a whopper.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23In fact, it's taller than you, even before I take it to its full eight-foot elevation.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25What do you think about this?
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Isn't this a splendid piece?
0:29:28 > 0:29:30This is absolutely wonderful.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33The quality is there. It's elegant.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36Yes. All these smart Glasgow apartments...
0:29:36 > 0:29:39Would fit perfectly into one of them.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42A very nice thing indeed. Well, what do you think it's worth?
0:29:42 > 0:29:45I've estimated it at 100 to 200.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48I've kept the estimate low and wide.
0:29:48 > 0:29:53I want to bring the bidders in and then gently push them up.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56- You're going to need to because Laidlaw paid £150 and he really rates it.- Yes.
0:29:56 > 0:30:04That's it for the Reds and now I'm cantering on to the Blues who've got yet another piece of Murano glass.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06I don't know where you come from with all this glass,
0:30:06 > 0:30:09but it gets terribly samey after a while, doesn't it?
0:30:09 > 0:30:12Well, I like glass. I like the colour. I like this one.
0:30:12 > 0:30:20It's got a little bit of detail with the wavy rim, with this gold aventurine, the bubbles and so on.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22So, it's quite a pretty thing.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24It would be easy to live with.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Yes. How much would it cost you to live with it easily?
0:30:27 > 0:30:30I've estimated it at 15 to 20.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32That's great, they only paid £8.50.
0:30:32 > 0:30:37It's a bit of a cheeky thing to buy for £8.50, but Beryl's like that.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Next up is their flambe vase which is much more traditional, isn't it?
0:30:41 > 0:30:43And a great shape, I think.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46It's wonderful. They started making this in about...
0:30:46 > 0:30:49round about 1904, and they are still making it.
0:30:49 > 0:30:55It's wonderful, it's popular and I know that the buyers will like that.
0:30:55 > 0:31:00Now, I don't know what it is about these teams and 50ps, but they've paid £69.50 for this.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02I've estimated it at 60 to 100.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04- Have you really?- Yes.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07Well, that's very good. They'll be very pleased about that.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10- Yes.- I don't know how you are with great lumps of ham
0:31:10 > 0:31:15and so forth, but those ham bone holders, I can tell you, are useful.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18I like this. It's a sort of quirky item again.
0:31:18 > 0:31:23How much it's used, I don't really know, but what I like about this one,
0:31:23 > 0:31:29nice clear marks, and it also has a family crest and I think
0:31:29 > 0:31:35that buyers, whether they're trade or private buyers, love to look at that and perhaps find the family.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38- Do a bit of research. - So there's a bit of interest there.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41Yeah, absolutely. Good, traditional object, that.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44- Yes.- And a bit wacky, as you say. How much do you think it's worth?
0:31:44 > 0:31:46- 40 to 60.- They paid 50.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48It's all pretty close to the mark.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51It slightly depends on how the flambe does,
0:31:51 > 0:31:56and we'll find out about that in a minute, but let's go and have a look at the bonus buy.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59Now, Beryl and Ellen, your big moment.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03You spent 128, you gave Catherine 172, did she blow the lot?
0:32:03 > 0:32:05- Are you ready for this, ladies?- Yes.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11- It's a little horn beaker.- Oh, God.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15- Oh, yes.- Is that a good "Oh, God," or a bad "Oh, God"?- That's a bad...
0:32:15 > 0:32:19- No, I say it's a good.- Oh, did you make that out of an elephant that you used to know or whatever?
0:32:19 > 0:32:22No, it's horn.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24That is the ugliest thing I've ever seen.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26THEY LAUGH
0:32:26 > 0:32:30What I love... What I love is your honesty.
0:32:30 > 0:32:34I don't think I've ever had anyone saying that. It's fantastic!
0:32:34 > 0:32:35They're usually done by sailors.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37- Did you pay money for this?- Yeah.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40- I'm going to... Shall we talk?- Yes.
0:32:40 > 0:32:46- Beryl!- Well, there we are, I'm going to hand it to you because I love the decoration.- Yes.
0:32:46 > 0:32:47This has been engraved here.
0:32:47 > 0:32:51- We've got this lady...- By a native lady from the West Indies.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53- In her Regency dress.- Yeah.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56And I think it's rather quite nice.
0:32:56 > 0:32:59- It is lovely. How much did you pay for it?- I paid only £50.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02Do you think we'll make a profit on it?
0:33:02 > 0:33:05I think we will, actually. I really like that.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07I think it's very charming.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11Well, we have a deep chasm between our team today, for a change.
0:33:11 > 0:33:17Why don't we find out right now what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's little cow horn beaker.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19So, Anita, a wee dram, perhaps?
0:33:19 > 0:33:24Aw, isn't this the sweetest thing that you've ever seen?
0:33:24 > 0:33:26I think it's absolutely lovely.
0:33:26 > 0:33:32It's a piece of naive folk art and I think that it may have been made
0:33:32 > 0:33:38by a young man for his beloved and he has carved out this little figure here
0:33:38 > 0:33:45and he has put, perhaps it's a portrait of his beloved, into a fine lady's costume.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47It's rather sweet, isn't it?
0:33:47 > 0:33:51Well, I have to say, if you look at her face and go really close on her face,
0:33:51 > 0:33:56it does leave quite a lot to be desired but, anyway, there we go.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59Price on that, 35 to 50.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Really? It might just take off.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03- It might do more. - There you go, you see?
0:34:03 > 0:34:05Might do more. It's very appealing.
0:34:05 > 0:34:09Southon paid £50 and she's, of course, incredibly romantic, so...
0:34:09 > 0:34:12- Just like me. - We'll have to see what happens.
0:34:12 > 0:34:14Thanks so much, Anita.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25So, Colin and Fraser, are you on fire for this?
0:34:25 > 0:34:27- Yes.- Absolutely, Tim.- Absolutely.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30- You've just come off the night shift, I'm told.- That's right.
0:34:30 > 0:34:35The first item up is your soother, or baby rattle, and here it comes.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37It's a Victorian silver baby's rattle, whistle.
0:34:37 > 0:34:43It has an ivory handle, ladies and gentlemen. Start me at £40.
0:34:43 > 0:34:4840 bid. 40 bid. Any advance on 40?
0:34:48 > 0:34:49Any advance on 40? 45.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51- Come on.- 50.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53£50.
0:34:53 > 0:34:57Any advance on £50? £50.
0:34:57 > 0:34:59Wiped its face, £50. No shame in that.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02£50, thank you very much. Lovely.
0:35:02 > 0:35:06Now, electrocution is your game.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10This is just what you need after a wee dram the night before,
0:35:10 > 0:35:15it's a Victorian electrostatic therapy machine.
0:35:15 > 0:35:17Start me at £40. Start me at £40.
0:35:17 > 0:35:1940 for the electrostatic machine.
0:35:19 > 0:35:24£20, then. 20. £20 for all that fun.
0:35:24 > 0:35:2920 bid. With you, sir, at 20. 25.
0:35:29 > 0:35:3130. £30.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34£30 for the electrostatic machine.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38Any advance on £30? All done at £30.
0:35:38 > 0:35:39- £30.- There we go, £30.
0:35:39 > 0:35:44That's very good, that's £2 profit.
0:35:44 > 0:35:48Nothing the matter with that. Good. Now, your Sykes flask.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50Victorian copper powder flask
0:35:50 > 0:35:53with this very nice Art Nouveau relief decoration.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56Start me at £20. 20 bid. 20 bid.
0:35:56 > 0:35:59Any advance on 20? 30.
0:35:59 > 0:36:0140. 50.
0:36:01 > 0:36:03£50.
0:36:03 > 0:36:0960. 70. 80. 90. £90.
0:36:09 > 0:36:1490 for the Sykes powder flask. £90.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17- £90.- Well done, Paul.
0:36:17 > 0:36:20- Good effort, Paul!- Great work. - That's £90, loving your work.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Plus 70 on that. You are £72 up.
0:36:23 > 0:36:26- 72 smackers in the back pocket, that's not so bad, is it? - Excellent, no.
0:36:26 > 0:36:32What are you going to do about this telescopic lamp, because this is £150-worth of investment, right.
0:36:32 > 0:36:36- I know.- This is a ticklish one to think through. You could trust our man here,
0:36:36 > 0:36:42that he's spent 150 of your pounds wisely and you could invest and multiply.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Go with the expert, Fraser, come on.
0:36:46 > 0:36:47- OK.- I'm keen.- OK.- Right, let's go.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50- We'll go with the bonus buy. - You'll give it a punt?
0:36:50 > 0:36:52- Yes.- Yeah. - You're going to kick the ball in?
0:36:52 > 0:36:53- We'll go with the bonus buy.- Yeah?
0:36:53 > 0:36:56OK. Well, you heard it from the man.
0:36:56 > 0:36:57They're going with the bonus buy.
0:36:57 > 0:37:01- Could be a good one, this.- And for better or for worse, here it comes.
0:37:01 > 0:37:07Lot 100, ladies and gentlemen, it's the Messenger's Victorian gilt metal.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Now, it's a telescopic lamp.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Start me at £100.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15100, surely.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18100. 80 bid.
0:37:18 > 0:37:2280 bid. Any advance on 80? 90. 100.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25110. 120.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28£120.
0:37:28 > 0:37:33120. Seems cheap. At 120. 130.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36£130.
0:37:36 > 0:37:41- Fresh bidder at 130.- That's no money. - Come on!- Any advance on 130?
0:37:41 > 0:37:42One more.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46- 130.- Sold for £130.
0:37:46 > 0:37:50It's enough to make you spit, isn't it? £130.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52But don't worry, that's only £20 off.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54You've still got plus £52, all right?
0:37:54 > 0:37:57That's minus £20, you have £52.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00You've finished the programme with £52.
0:38:00 > 0:38:04To finish this programme at all with a profit is a considerable achievement.
0:38:09 > 0:38:10So, how are you feeling, Beryl?
0:38:10 > 0:38:12- Butterflies.- Are you?- Yes.
0:38:12 > 0:38:16The butterflies are dancing with the butterflies.
0:38:16 > 0:38:18What does your mate Ellen think? What do you think about it?
0:38:18 > 0:38:22- We've got as much chance as anybody else.- Yes.- And it'll be up to Anita.
0:38:22 > 0:38:29First lot up, Beryl, is your Murano bonbon dish for £8.50, and here it comes.
0:38:29 > 0:38:35Lot 116, that is a good piece of Venetian glass, ladies and gentlemen.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38Start me at 20. Bid.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40With you, madam, at 20.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43- With you, madam, at 20 for the Murano glass.- Is that...?
0:38:43 > 0:38:47With you, madam, at £20. One bid at £20.
0:38:47 > 0:38:48Amazing.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50- Come on, come on.- All done at £20?
0:38:50 > 0:38:54- Yes!- £20.- I'm taking it all back.
0:38:54 > 0:38:59This is very good. That's 50p up to nine, that's £11.50.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01Plus £11.50.
0:39:01 > 0:39:05- How's that?- That's fabulous. - I still don't like it. - The flambe, here we go.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08It's a piece of Doulton flambe.
0:39:08 > 0:39:13Absolutely lovely. Start me at 100 for the Doulton flambe. 100, surely.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16100. £50, then. 50 bid.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Any advance on 50? Any adva... 60.
0:39:19 > 0:39:2170.
0:39:21 > 0:39:2580. 80 with you, sir.
0:39:25 > 0:39:29£80 for the Doulton flambe. 80. 90, fresh bidder.
0:39:29 > 0:39:30Well done.
0:39:30 > 0:39:35£90. With you, sir, at 90. All done?
0:39:35 > 0:39:38- £90.- Yes!- £90.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40- That is very nice. - A genius already!
0:39:40 > 0:39:44- What did I know? - That's £20 and 50p profit.
0:39:44 > 0:39:46Which is very good.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49You've now made £32 profit.
0:39:49 > 0:39:54You are plus 32, girls. Now, the mutton bone holder.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58It's the electroplated ham bone holder.
0:39:58 > 0:40:0250, surely. £50. 30. 30 bid.
0:40:02 > 0:40:03No, come on.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Any advance on £40?
0:40:06 > 0:40:0850.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10With you, sir, at £50.
0:40:10 > 0:40:1260 with the lady.
0:40:12 > 0:40:14She's got a ham bone at home. 60.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16THEY LAUGH
0:40:16 > 0:40:1870 with the gentlemen.
0:40:18 > 0:40:22£70. All done at £70?
0:40:22 > 0:40:25All done at £70? £70.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28- £70, it's plus £20. - Well done, Catherine.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30You are £52 profit.
0:40:30 > 0:40:36You've made a profit on every item and you have a total of £52 profit.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38- How about that? That's pretty good, isn't it?- Yes.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40Now you have to decide about the beaker.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44- A coin?- If the only way you can make a decision,
0:40:44 > 0:40:50is to toss a coin, quite frankly, I will invest 2p in this, all right?
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Right, so there you've got it, heads and tails.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54- Call in the air.- Heads.- Heads.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56- Heads, what?- Come on.- Heads I go.
0:40:56 > 0:40:58- Yeah.- Heads we do it your way. - Yes.- Yeah.
0:40:58 > 0:41:00OK, heads you have it.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04And it is heads. We're going with the little beaker. Here it comes
0:41:04 > 0:41:06and we're going to see it sold.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08One of my favourite lots.
0:41:08 > 0:41:11It's this little antique horn beaker.
0:41:11 > 0:41:14Start me at 30. 30. 30 bid.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18Any advance on 30? Any advance on 30?
0:41:18 > 0:41:2235. 40. 45. 50. Fresh bidder.
0:41:22 > 0:41:24Please, please, just...
0:41:24 > 0:41:2755. 60.
0:41:27 > 0:41:3060. Any advance on 60?
0:41:30 > 0:41:34- All done at £60? £60.- £60.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37- Well done, Catherine.- Another £10.
0:41:37 > 0:41:40Another £10 to swell the coffers.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42I'm just so pleased that it made a profit...
0:41:42 > 0:41:45Because I was killing you if you hadn't, that's it!
0:41:45 > 0:41:48- My life would not be worth living. - Dead, yes, you'd be dead.
0:41:48 > 0:41:52Plus £62, then, girls. It could be a winning score.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54- Don't mention a thing to the Reds, all right?- We won't.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56We'll reveal all in a moment.
0:42:00 > 0:42:05It's no secret to the teams that they're both in profit today.
0:42:05 > 0:42:07It's simply a question of scale of profit.
0:42:07 > 0:42:14Well, at one point the trailers were the leaders, and then the leaders went with some bonus buys
0:42:14 > 0:42:20and finished up as trailers, and sadly, the trailing team today are the Reds.
0:42:20 > 0:42:26Because you were plus 72, you unfortunately had a bit of a slip-up
0:42:26 > 0:42:30with the bonus buy, which takes you to plus 52. There's your £2... £52.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34Congratulations on making your £52.
0:42:34 > 0:42:44Well done, boys. But for the girls, who managed to stay ahead by having a profit of £62, I'll hand across
0:42:44 > 0:42:47to Beryl, who's looking very pleased about this, her £62.
