0:00:03 > 0:00:07Hello, where did this horrible thing come from?

0:00:07 > 0:00:13Do you think it means that on today's show we've got a mature Goth and it's crawled off her?

0:00:13 > 0:00:16How repulsive, I hate spiders.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19Let's go bargain hunting instead.

0:00:48 > 0:00:52You could easily lose yourself in a busy place like this,

0:00:52 > 0:00:55so they'd better have their wits about them.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Especially David Barby.

0:00:57 > 0:01:03He's on a macabre mission for the Red team, Carlos and his Gothic fiance Alison.

0:01:06 > 0:01:08- Cloven hoof double.- Very nice.

0:01:08 > 0:01:13The devil worship. I mustn't go on about this.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16They get the fright of their lives at the sale room.

0:01:16 > 0:01:21- I'm only bid £10.- This is turning out to be a bloodbath.

0:01:21 > 0:01:27Blue team Chris and Betty have Thomas Plant staking his reputation on a clothes brush.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30It is a bit expensive, Thomas.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- It is the clothes brush of all clothes brushes.- Yes.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35But Thomas gets the brush off.

0:01:35 > 0:01:39- £10.- We might as well give it away.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42It is time to meet those teams.

0:01:42 > 0:01:45- Hello, everyone.- Hi, Tim.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49Alison, when did you decide you wanted to be a Goth?

0:01:49 > 0:01:53That would be from the age of about 33.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55- Quite young then?- Quite young.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59What do your friends and family think about all this 'Gothicism'.

0:01:59 > 0:02:03My mum, she thought I was barmy to start being a Goth at 33.

0:02:03 > 0:02:0533, a late developer.

0:02:05 > 0:02:13She said, then again, I know my daughter so that would probably fit and my son is 32...

0:02:13 > 0:02:18and he absolutely thinks it is hysterical. He really does.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22- You are clearly very happy in your skin which is lovely.- Yes, yes.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Carlos, where did you and Alison meet?

0:02:24 > 0:02:30We used to work at the same building together. I saw her coming down for a bit and thought, "she's nice".

0:02:30 > 0:02:34Didn't do nothing about it and there was a mate of mine who egged me on.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37How did you propose to Alison in the end, Carlos?

0:02:37 > 0:02:39- It was quite emotional for you, wasn't it?- Quite emotional.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43I went to a flower shop, ordered some flowers, got them delivered

0:02:43 > 0:02:48where she was working and I got a card and I wrote, one more surprise to come.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52I waited outside, got down on one knee and asked her to marry me.

0:02:52 > 0:02:56- How long have you been engaged for now?- Five years.

0:02:59 > 0:03:04Lovely. What is going to be the big incentive for making the last leap?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06Might it happen on Bargain Hunt today?

0:03:06 > 0:03:08It might do, you never know.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12- It could do.- Make a big profit, you could take a big leap.

0:03:12 > 0:03:16Never had a Gothic wedding on the show ever.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20This could be a first. Brilliant. Very good luck.

0:03:20 > 0:03:26Now, by all accounts, you two should get on extremely well as you have been together for 25 years.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28That is right, we have.

0:03:28 > 0:03:33- Chris, apart from your wife, what are your other passions? - I love fishing.

0:03:33 > 0:03:38Nothing better than being by the waterside, mist rolling off the water, birds singing, fabulous.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41Betty, you're going to do some volunteering now in your spare time?

0:03:41 > 0:03:45Yes I am. I'm going to help out at the hospital.

0:03:45 > 0:03:51Just on the wards and making tea and just...

0:03:51 > 0:03:55- Giving out sympathy.- Yeah, and chatting to the patients really.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- I think you will be a very good at that.- I do hope so.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Chris, I hear you're a bit of a collector.

0:04:00 > 0:04:01Yes, a little bit.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04I like antique vesta cases, silver.

0:04:04 > 0:04:12I've got eight and I have a papier mache Georgian box and a little bit of World War I memorabilia.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Where did this interest in World War One memorabilia come from?

0:04:15 > 0:04:22I went to France with my son-in-law Tim who is an avid First World War collector and

0:04:22 > 0:04:27we went field walking and then we used to go in a bar called Le Tommy.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31One night we went in there, had a few beers, I noticed

0:04:31 > 0:04:37this shell on the counter, a French 75 millimetre shrapnel shell.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40After two bottles of claret,

0:04:40 > 0:04:44I thought about buying it and after four bottles of claret...

0:04:44 > 0:04:48- You didn't know where you were? - No, but I did buy it for 30 Euros.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52I brought it home and it is in pride of place on the mantelpiece.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54How are you on First World War shells, love?

0:04:54 > 0:04:56I've got a few actually.

0:04:56 > 0:05:02- We've got at least three on the hearth at the moment. - Are you fond of them too?

0:05:02 > 0:05:04They are OK.

0:05:04 > 0:05:09- You are going to have to keep him under control you know that, don't you?- Absolutely.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Now the money moment. £300 apiece.

0:05:11 > 0:05:18Your experts await, off you go and very, very, good luck.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Alison, what are you going to look for?

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Basically, I shall be looking for jewellery.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28Silver cases or snuff boxes.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30I like ceramics, glass, silver.

0:05:30 > 0:05:32What about you?

0:05:32 > 0:05:35Glass, Laliques. If we can get cheap Lalique.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38I have never seen cheap Lalique yet!

0:05:38 > 0:05:43As ever our two teams have to follow a well known set of rules.

0:05:43 > 0:05:48In fact the whole world knows these rules or should do.

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Each team has only one hour to shop.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53They give them £300 to spend.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56Each team must buy three items.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58There you have it, the wonderful world of Bargain Hunt.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09£395.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11That is quite nice.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13It is actually. What is the price?

0:06:13 > 0:06:16- I'll do it for 30.- 25? - 28.- Do you want to consider it?

0:06:16 > 0:06:21- We'll come back to it shall we?- We've only started. What a lot.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27This is a little vesta.

0:06:27 > 0:06:30I love vestas.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32You would hang it on your watch chain like that.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36It is on a watch chain and you would have your watch on the other end.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40It is in the form of a cloven hoof.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Yes!- A cloven hoof - the devil. - Very nice.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- That is the little striker there. - That is beautiful.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50'The Queen of Darkness likes it. No surprise there.'

0:06:50 > 0:06:55This would have been silver plated at some stage and it has gone off now.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57What is the price on that?

0:06:57 > 0:07:00The price is 110 and he will come down to 80.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03- I said 90.- Did you, I'm so sorry.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06I will split the difference at 85.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08That is as good as I can go.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10How much do you think it would make at auction?

0:07:10 > 0:07:15It is either going to take off because there are vesta collectors in the room,

0:07:15 > 0:07:17or it could sell for just 50.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19What date would you put on that?

0:07:19 > 0:07:25- I would think around 1880. - Yes, I think that is quite good.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29- A cloven foot.- Well-spotted, David. What shall we do?

0:07:29 > 0:07:32Shall we go for this?

0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Shall we?- Shall we?

0:07:34 > 0:07:36David?

0:07:36 > 0:07:40Leave it till 10 minutes before the final choice.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43- I agree with that. - Thank you very much indeed, sir. - Very sensible.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Lovely couple. I get on extremely well with them.

0:07:49 > 0:07:54It is trying to find something within the narrow field that they are interested in.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58I don't want to palm off a little piece of silver which they are not interested in.

0:07:58 > 0:08:03I want them to make the choice.

0:08:03 > 0:08:10While the Reds are finding their way inside, Thomas has high hopes for the open air.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14- Have you seen anything Chris?- No.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17We've only just started, haven't we?

0:08:17 > 0:08:21I like being outside, I feel I get a better deal outside.

0:08:21 > 0:08:27There is more space and also the stallholders are a little more receptive outside.

0:08:30 > 0:08:34This is quite fun.

0:08:34 > 0:08:35It is a brush, isn't it?

0:08:35 > 0:08:37A clothes brush.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41Clothes, come table brush.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43It is a fun thing with these continental marks on.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46It's Elkington.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48£85.

0:08:48 > 0:08:52Is it a clothes brush? Yes. It is rather handsome as a clothes brush.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54- It is.- Nice shape to it.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59- The best price you could probably get for this is £60.- Right.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01It is a bit expensive, Thomas.

0:09:01 > 0:09:05You might think it is expensive but find me another one of that quality.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09Elkington, the best makers. The actual bristles, look how good they are.

0:09:09 > 0:09:13- How old do you think it is? - It is probably 1920s, 1930s,

0:09:13 > 0:09:15might even be earlier.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17So, it's Art Nouveau?

0:09:17 > 0:09:21- It's got that... - It has got that look about it.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23British Art Nouveau is 1900 - 1914.

0:09:23 > 0:09:30First World War happens, that stops. Really, it is Deco. It is luxurious.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32There are collectors for that, is there?

0:09:32 > 0:09:38There are collectors, people still use them. That is the kind of thing I could see in...

0:09:38 > 0:09:42It would be something that you would use not just to collect and have on show.

0:09:42 > 0:09:45I'm also thinking about the resale, where is it going to be?

0:09:45 > 0:09:51Is it going to be in London, in a gentleman's outfitters? It is that kind of prop.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53There is something there to be had.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55I do like it. I think it is a fantastic shape.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57It is a really interesting shape.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59- Shall we do it?- Let's go for it.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01- Yes.- Great.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03£60, thank you.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06Two to go, let's come on.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09That is one item bought. What d'you think, Thomas?

0:10:09 > 0:10:13We've got one item - something I found.

0:10:13 > 0:10:18I want them to be a little more pushy picking up a few more things, looking at a few more items.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Oh dear, blue team could do better.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24Are the Reds still on the hunt for something scary?

0:10:24 > 0:10:26I love those Mrs Thatcher.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I love them.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Not my scene, David.- Not politics.

0:10:35 > 0:10:40How about some lovely glass to calm the nerves.

0:10:40 > 0:10:44- Just feel that.- Murano. That is beautiful. I love the colours.

0:10:44 > 0:10:46- That's heavy.- Can I feel?

0:10:46 > 0:10:48- Got it?- Yeah.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51- Wow.- That is nice, I like that.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55- That is mega heavy. What is the price on that, David?- 48.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58- 48?- I think it is quite nice.

0:10:58 > 0:11:01- It is nice that. - It is not a bad price.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02It is not damaged anywhere, is it?

0:11:02 > 0:11:06No... When you look at glass,

0:11:06 > 0:11:10for ageing, can you see the scratch marks on the bottom?

0:11:10 > 0:11:12That is indicative of its age.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14It has been on top of the table.

0:11:14 > 0:11:19This is naturally blown, naturally hand-worked and then they have

0:11:19 > 0:11:23smoothed off the bottom and cut it so you have it cut straight across.

0:11:23 > 0:11:30It has been on top of the table, moved around, it is scratched.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Will that affect the price?

0:11:32 > 0:11:37Yes, it will, that is why it is 48 quid. Look at that.

0:11:37 > 0:11:40Beautiful colours in there, really nice.

0:11:40 > 0:11:45- Do you want to go and ask the lady the price, it is £48.- OK.

0:11:45 > 0:11:46It is badly scratched at the bottom.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51For a collector, that can always be polished out.

0:11:51 > 0:11:54- What is the best price you can do on that?- 38?

0:11:54 > 0:11:5738.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Could you come down any more on that? - 35.

0:12:00 > 0:12:02What about 30, please?

0:12:04 > 0:12:06It is quite scratched underneath.

0:12:06 > 0:12:11- 32.- Split the difference at 31.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14'David, you rogue.'

0:12:14 > 0:12:17- Go on then.- Do you want to do that?

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Shall we? Thank you.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23So, half an hour in, how is it going?

0:12:25 > 0:12:27We are going in the right direction.

0:12:27 > 0:12:32There is so many stalls here and it is taking so long to go down one particular avenue,

0:12:32 > 0:12:36that I feel we will probably run out of time and have to rush back

0:12:36 > 0:12:39to find if there are still objects available that we looked at earlier.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42Oh, the heat is on.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Now where is that thermometer?

0:12:48 > 0:12:51If I give it a twist, like this,

0:12:51 > 0:12:56the whole of that inner case spins around and reveals inside,

0:12:56 > 0:12:59the tiny thermometer in the middle.

0:12:59 > 0:13:05If you look at the bottom of this, it is perforated as if it was for pepper.

0:13:05 > 0:13:10Actually, it is for the sugar refining trade.

0:13:10 > 0:13:15If you have got sure sugar cane and you were boiling it in a vat, you would want to boil it

0:13:15 > 0:13:22to a certain temperature before refining it into hard grain sugar.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Then you would have had an industrial thermometer,

0:13:25 > 0:13:29the case of which would look rather like this miniature.

0:13:29 > 0:13:33Silver hallmark, London, 1898.

0:13:33 > 0:13:39This thing was made for Mr Tate or Mr Lyle or

0:13:39 > 0:13:43the equivalent who was in the sugar manufacturing trade

0:13:43 > 0:13:50and they had it on the end of their watch chain as a little token of the business they were in.

0:13:50 > 0:13:56Don't think for a moment that you should shove this inside a vat of burning sugar because you shouldn't.

0:13:56 > 0:13:57It is simply a bit of fun.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00It is a toy, if you like,

0:14:00 > 0:14:02a rich man's toy.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04What is it worth?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07You could buy it for £190.

0:14:07 > 0:14:11What might you get for it on the right day to the right collector?

0:14:11 > 0:14:15At least 3-400.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Is that sweet enough for you?

0:14:18 > 0:14:20I'd say so.

0:14:20 > 0:14:24Where are you bargain hunters?

0:14:24 > 0:14:27What about this? This is a bit of Royal Crown Derby.

0:14:27 > 0:14:32As we are selling in Derby, it would be good to get some Royal Crown Derby.

0:14:32 > 0:14:35These are paperweights and there are lots of different variations.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37You get bigger ones, smaller ones.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39What do you think of that?

0:14:39 > 0:14:43I like them very much. I like the wren I spotted.

0:14:43 > 0:14:46- This wren here? What do you like about that?- That is lovely.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49- The gilding is very good on it. - It is pretty, isn't it?

0:14:49 > 0:14:52- Yes. It's so sweet.- No chips. It's nice.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55These things are quite collectible.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58You can see on the back stamp it is marked Royal Crown Derby.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00This is a stopper.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03You take it out, fill it with sand and put the stopper back in.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06I like the gilding, I like the shape of the wren.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08It looks in perfect order.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12It is. There is rubbing to the gild. But that's not a problem, it's going to happen.

0:15:12 > 0:15:17- What is your real best on this? - 35 that one is.- Can you do it for 30?

0:15:17 > 0:15:18I really can't.

0:15:18 > 0:15:24- Go for it?- I quite like that.- You like that, you are into it?- Yes.

0:15:24 > 0:15:32- That was a quick decision. Thinking about other things and then suddenly, "I like that."- I like it.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37So, how are the red team getting on with their Gothic hunt?

0:15:39 > 0:15:40Gothic, Gothic.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Victorian jugs, Gothic shapes.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49I'm looking, David! I'm looking, seriously.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52It is just the sort of devil worship.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57I mustn't go on about this.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59We're not going to find anything, are we?

0:15:59 > 0:16:00Yes, we are.

0:16:05 > 0:16:06Anything else you have seen you like?

0:16:06 > 0:16:10- We quite like the toddy ladle. - What do you like about that?

0:16:10 > 0:16:13It is very tactile, nice shape, nice twist to the handle.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16I like the work on it as well.

0:16:16 > 0:16:20- What is this made out of? - It is not a metal, is it?

0:16:20 > 0:16:24- It is whale bone.- Whale bone?

0:16:24 > 0:16:26Turned at the end. Quite nice.

0:16:26 > 0:16:30This would be silver here, it has a bit of a patch there.

0:16:30 > 0:16:34It's got the cartouche with "MP" there.

0:16:34 > 0:16:41The coin is 1793 and it looks to me like it is a Dutch coin.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44- Definitely continental. - How much was that? 40?

0:16:44 > 0:16:48- £45.- Do you think she will do it for less than that?

0:16:48 > 0:16:52I did get a little bit off that, actually, before. I have come down.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55I think it is lovely. I would buy that.

0:16:55 > 0:17:00For something which is 1790s, there are a few patches on it,

0:17:00 > 0:17:03but for that money, you have a good chance of making a profit on that.

0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Do you think we have?- Absolutely.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09I am convinced that you have a good chance of making a profit.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11I think we should go for that.

0:17:11 > 0:17:16I like your consensus because Betty, you ask Chris and Chris says yes and

0:17:16 > 0:17:22you have this conversation together and you are united in your decision.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24That bond is quite interesting and strong.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27- That would look nice in our living room, actually.- It would.

0:17:27 > 0:17:29You're not buying it for that!

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- In the dining room, yes it would. - I think we should have it.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34I like it very much.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36Brilliant. Go for it.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Wow, 40 minutes and the Blues are done.

0:17:39 > 0:17:44Reds, your time is running out.

0:17:44 > 0:17:47That is absolutely stunning.

0:17:47 > 0:17:51- It is damaged.- Oh, it's damaged!

0:17:51 > 0:17:53I think they are jinxed.

0:17:53 > 0:17:58- Quick, quick.- You'd better be quick!

0:17:58 > 0:18:03- William Wallace.- William Wallace! - Have a look at it.

0:18:03 > 0:18:10- It's beautiful.- It is a little... what they term a clansman, great item.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13That's the Scottish symbol, the thistle, for Edinburgh,

0:18:13 > 0:18:17and then you have the date letter and the maker's mark.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19It is from 1904.

0:18:19 > 0:18:22We are not in Scotland to sell,

0:18:22 > 0:18:28- but there are people who collect tartans and Scottish memorabilia. - I like it, I think that's nice.

0:18:28 > 0:18:32- What is the price, sir?- The best trade price would be £90.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36Could you be slightly more considerate?

0:18:36 > 0:18:38The very best would be 85.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- 85.- 85.

0:18:43 > 0:18:49I think if we went for that and the little cloven hoof.

0:18:49 > 0:18:50What would you say, David?

0:18:50 > 0:18:55This is quite interesting and it is a nice silver model.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59£85, I think you stand a chance of making a profit on it.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- Shall we do that?- I think that is going to be our second purchase.

0:19:02 > 0:19:06- Second purchase? I think we're happy with that.- I am happy with that, David.

0:19:06 > 0:19:10- OK.- £85, I think that is a fair price.- Thank you very much indeed.

0:19:10 > 0:19:15Now, do you remember what David said earlier?

0:19:15 > 0:19:18We will probably run out of time and have to rush back

0:19:18 > 0:19:22to find if there are still objects available that we looked at earlier.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24It is a jinx, isn't it?

0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Will that cloven hoof still be there?- Where was it?

0:19:27 > 0:19:29Down there at the start.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Right, we are here. Final decision.

0:19:35 > 0:19:40Blame me if it all goes pear-shaped.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45Right.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48There we are, the cloven hoof.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51And we have no time left, so that's it.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53- That's it then.- OK? - That's the one.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55Right, thank you very much, Sam.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58Can you gift-wrap it for us? What colour of ribbon?

0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Oh, any!- Hand delivered? - Thank you very much.- Thank you.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04That's it then, shopping's done.

0:20:04 > 0:20:11Now our experts can look for a bonus buy which might get their team out of a tight spot at the auction,

0:20:11 > 0:20:14but how much money will they have to spend?

0:20:16 > 0:20:21Alison and Carlos bought the Murano glass for £31.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25The Scottish silver miniature caught their eye at 85.

0:20:25 > 0:20:30And finally they went for the cloven hoof vesta case, again at 85.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33- £99, yes we have, yes.- That's a good sum to play around with.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36- Did I hear £99 being mentioned?- Yes.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39- Is that the leftover lolly, then? - It is.- Let's be having it.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42- So was that good fun?- It was awesome, yes.- Awesome fun.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45So what was so awesome about it?

0:20:45 > 0:20:47Actually going round and looking for the bits.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50- You enjoyed that, did you? - Yes, very much so.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53The individuality of what we've bought is quite good, I think.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56- Were you happy with that, Alison? - Yes, I was.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Anyway, £99 goes straight to the maestro.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01- Oh dear.- Now listen, are you converted into a Gothicist?

0:21:01 > 0:21:04I don't see anything Gothic about you, old fruit.

0:21:04 > 0:21:08- He's very Gothic. - I've always been interested in the sort of supernatural.

0:21:08 > 0:21:13When I was a child I read Dennis Wheatley, The Haunting of Toby Jugg, and Alison's read that as well.

0:21:13 > 0:21:16Really? And how many stakes have you had driven through your heart?

0:21:16 > 0:21:19None as yet, I still survive.

0:21:19 > 0:21:24- I will survive!- Your task now is to go off and find a bonus buy, and very good luck with that, David.

0:21:24 > 0:21:29But for us, why don't we check out what the Blues have bought, eh?

0:21:29 > 0:21:34Chris and Betty plumped for a silver-plated clothes brush at £60.

0:21:34 > 0:21:38They picked up a little birdie for a cheap-cheap 35,

0:21:38 > 0:21:41and finally opted for this toddy ladle at 45.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43Bottoms up, eh?

0:21:43 > 0:21:49- Well they look like a very happy couple, Thomas, you must be congratulated.- Thank you, Tim.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51- They were always united in their decision.- Yes.

0:21:51 > 0:21:57If they didn't like it, they didn't like it together, or Betty told Christopher he shouldn't like it.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01But when they wanted it, they both wanted it, or Betty told Christopher he should have it.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04Yes, this seems like a happily married couple to me!

0:22:04 > 0:22:07I think I know that recipe. You had a good time though, didn't you?

0:22:07 > 0:22:11- We've had a marvellous time, Tim. - I'd like £160 of leftover lolly.

0:22:11 > 0:22:16Thank you very much, 160. So which is your favourite bit so far?

0:22:16 > 0:22:21- The ladle.- The ladle?- Definitely. - Do you agree with that, Christopher? - Toddy ladle, yes.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23You do, best not to disagree.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27Lovely, here's the left over lolly, Thomas, you know the rules.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29Very good luck when you find your bonus buy.

0:22:29 > 0:22:34But for me, I'm heading off, and I thought it might be rather nice if we took a trip together.

0:22:47 > 0:22:53Canons Ashby is an Elizabethan manor house tucked away in a corner of Northamptonshire.

0:22:53 > 0:23:00It's pretty gorgeous on the outside, but the interior - that's to die for.

0:23:02 > 0:23:06For nearly half a century, the owners of this country pile,

0:23:06 > 0:23:14the Dryden family, splashed their cash on creating what was the height of 17th century interior design,

0:23:14 > 0:23:18and today, the results are still breathtaking.

0:23:22 > 0:23:29Sir Erasmus Dryden was the man who seriously splashed some cash in this house,

0:23:29 > 0:23:34creating a first-floor saloon, within which the most obvious

0:23:34 > 0:23:38and immediate feature is this extraordinary fireplace.

0:23:38 > 0:23:44This was constructed in the 1590s, and it absolutely would have smacked

0:23:44 > 0:23:48the neighbours in Northamptonshire in the face.

0:23:48 > 0:23:51This they would not have seen in this locality

0:23:51 > 0:23:57unless they had visited a Royal Palace or a seriously grand house.

0:23:57 > 0:24:01Because it's the ultimate in Tudor fireplace design.

0:24:03 > 0:24:09Fantastic interlaced creatures decorate the underside of the mantelpiece and the frieze above.

0:24:12 > 0:24:20The family crests are proudly on display, complete with their motto, "Ancient As The Druids".

0:24:21 > 0:24:26At various times in the hearth itself, there have been alterations.

0:24:26 > 0:24:32At one time it was filled in and a small fire grate fitted at the front, and in the 19th century,

0:24:32 > 0:24:38the whole thing started to sag alarmingly, hence the iron columns were inserted.

0:24:38 > 0:24:46Now, if you were seriously rich and you were building a fireplace like this in Italy

0:24:46 > 0:24:49earlier in the century, the materials that you would have had to use

0:24:49 > 0:24:53would have been extremely expensive polished stones.

0:24:53 > 0:25:00But here in Northamptonshire they didn't have those materials, so Sir Erasmus went for the cheaper option.

0:25:00 > 0:25:06He went for a paint job, and originally, that column would have looked just like

0:25:06 > 0:25:13a solid slab of porphyry, which is a purplish stone with little white dots in it,

0:25:13 > 0:25:18and you can vaguely sense that purple colour scheme looking at it today.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22The columns up above are trying to look like fossilised stone.

0:25:22 > 0:25:28They're simply plain stone with a paint effect on them, vaguely greyish,

0:25:28 > 0:25:33with these little flecks which are supposed to be frozen fossils

0:25:33 > 0:25:37within this expensive stone - all very clever.

0:25:37 > 0:25:44But Sir Erasmus was outdone by his son, Sir John, because in the 1630s,

0:25:44 > 0:25:50Sir John took Erasmus's perfectly straightforward curved, barrelled ceiling,

0:25:50 > 0:25:54and built this extraordinary plaster ceiling

0:25:54 > 0:25:59inside the original barrelled job, and he created this

0:25:59 > 0:26:03with a series of laths - lath and plaster -

0:26:03 > 0:26:07and built up these beautiful designs.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11Now, the use of plaster in the 17th century is a phenomenon.

0:26:11 > 0:26:18It's a phenomenon because they added hair and urine to the gypsum to make it cloy and stick,

0:26:18 > 0:26:22then of course, the craftsperson carefully cut

0:26:22 > 0:26:27and built up these layers and created the designs.

0:26:27 > 0:26:30The whole thing rises to a central boss,

0:26:30 > 0:26:36from which, no doubt, at one time, a chandelier would hang.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Showing off to the locals?

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Of course, the big question today is, how much showing off

0:26:41 > 0:26:45is there going to be from our teams over at the auction?

0:26:45 > 0:26:52Well, David and Thomas have had enough time to buy their bonus buys, so let's get to that auction!

0:26:55 > 0:27:01So, we find ourselves on the outskirts of Derby in Mackworth at Hanson's saleroom

0:27:01 > 0:27:04with the proprietor and supremo, Charles himself.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08- Charles, good morning.- Tim, a pleasure to have you here.- Always nice to be with you, Charles.

0:27:08 > 0:27:12- Alison and Carlos kicked off with this Murano bowl.- Yes.

0:27:12 > 0:27:19It's an interesting thing because it's got this graded colour to it, and this folded-over lip.

0:27:19 > 0:27:24It's nice, it's stylish, it's modern, it would suit most homes, but it's got a standard price.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26- Yes?- It's got one price. - What is that price?

0:27:26 > 0:27:29- £25.- Is it?- Approximately.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32£31 was paid by Carlos.

0:27:32 > 0:27:35Now, what about this miniature silver fellow?

0:27:35 > 0:27:37Well, Tim, I like him.

0:27:37 > 0:27:41Obviously a great Scottish knight, William Wallace,

0:27:41 > 0:27:45hallmarked Edinburgh 1904, and it's novel.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48- Quite. People do just collect Scottish silver.- Yes, they do.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51There it is, it's a period piece, it's over 100 years old...

0:27:51 > 0:27:56- Absolutely.- It's in good condition, it's crisply cast. So, what's your estimate?

0:27:56 > 0:27:59Guide price is between £40 and £60, but I wouldn't be surprised

0:27:59 > 0:28:03- to see it tinkle on and maybe hit 80 or 90. - Good luck, that's all I can say.

0:28:03 > 0:28:07- Yes.- Now, the last item is the hoof vesta.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09People love novelty vestas, don't they?

0:28:09 > 0:28:15Yes, they do, Tim, that wonderful golden period of the 1890-1915 was a great period for such novelty items.

0:28:15 > 0:28:20- The only thing is, it's made of tin, isn't it? Or metal, gilt metal.- Yes.

0:28:20 > 0:28:24That in silver, as a novelty, would make a lot of money, wouldn't it?

0:28:24 > 0:28:27- Yes, it would.- £400 or £500, something crackers like that?

0:28:27 > 0:28:30- Indeed.- What do you think it's worth in gilt metal?

0:28:30 > 0:28:34My guide price is between £30 and £40.

0:28:34 > 0:28:36- Well, Alison paid £85.- Right.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39There is a question mark over that thing, I have to say,

0:28:39 > 0:28:44and on that basis they may well need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.

0:28:44 > 0:28:49Now, Alison and Carlos, you spent £201, giving David a handsome £99.

0:28:49 > 0:28:53Now, did he blow the lot? Show us your goods.

0:28:53 > 0:29:00I didn't blow the lot, what I did get was this absolutely exquisite piece of animalia sculpture.

0:29:00 > 0:29:04This little piece is in bronze, and it's a pen tray to stand on a desk.

0:29:04 > 0:29:11It's in the form of an elongated, almost like a Cos lettuce, with a little rabbit there, munching away.

0:29:11 > 0:29:14- Aw!- I think this is lovely.

0:29:14 > 0:29:17I looked underneath this because so many of these are reproduced,

0:29:17 > 0:29:21and you look for evidence of wear, which is here, where it's rested on the desk,

0:29:21 > 0:29:27and also you look at these two screw sections which hold the rabbit in place.

0:29:27 > 0:29:31And they are of some age.

0:29:31 > 0:29:37So this piece, I think, dates from the middle to around about the sort of 1880 period.

0:29:37 > 0:29:39- I think it's exquisite. - It's beautiful, isn't it?

0:29:39 > 0:29:43I think that's going to do us very proud.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45So what did you spend on that?

0:29:45 > 0:29:49- 60 quid.- 60?- Well, 60 pounds! - And what do you think of the profit?

0:29:49 > 0:29:53I'd like to see it go for over £100.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56That is absolutely stunning.

0:29:56 > 0:30:01- I think we might be onto a nice little winner there, if we need to. - We'll see how we go, first.

0:30:01 > 0:30:05I think it's a super thing, and I'm very jealous that you got there before me, David.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07Ha-ha-ha!

0:30:07 > 0:30:09There we are, a happy note!

0:30:09 > 0:30:14Let's find out for the viewers at home what the auctioneer thinks about David's little rabbit.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Well, there you go, I like a bit of lettuce meself!

0:30:19 > 0:30:22Along with the rabbits, of course.

0:30:22 > 0:30:27This I like very much, because first and foremost, this leafy, veined form is very, very good.

0:30:27 > 0:30:30That sort of quality, 1900? A tad earlier?

0:30:30 > 0:30:34It's all there, and that thing would sit on your desk

0:30:34 > 0:30:40and you'd put your pen or something like that in it, and it really does work, doesn't it?

0:30:40 > 0:30:43- Yes.- How much? - Well, I would suggest, Tim,

0:30:43 > 0:30:49its market value would be between £40 and £60, based on the crispness not being quite as good as it could be.

0:30:49 > 0:30:51OK, £60 paid by the Barby, and he rates it.

0:30:51 > 0:30:55Anyway, that's it for the Reds, now for the Blues.

0:30:55 > 0:30:57And what a cross-section we've got.

0:30:57 > 0:31:00How do you rate that Elkington clothes brush?

0:31:00 > 0:31:04Well, Tim, it's one I have never seen before of this form.

0:31:04 > 0:31:08Elkington, a great name, a great factory, what age would this be?

0:31:08 > 0:31:14- Is it '50s and Scandinavian influence? It isn't, it's more like 1910, isn't it?- Yes, absolutely.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17I think it's a straight Edwardian piece of country house kit.

0:31:17 > 0:31:22- But wacky, and that's what the market likes, wacky.- Marvellous, isn't it? What's it worth?

0:31:22 > 0:31:27Tim, I think I can be quite bold and say on a really good day, it might make £50.

0:31:27 > 0:31:33My guide price it is between £30 and £40, because it is what it is, but the style will hopefully take it up.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37They paid 60, so they may just be a bit shy there, but I agree with you, it's got potential.

0:31:37 > 0:31:43- Yes.- Next is the wren paperweight. This is Derby, just down the road, so you know all about this, Charles.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45Tim, it's flown home to us, it's flown home.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49She's nice, in good condition, the gilding, the enamelling is good.

0:31:49 > 0:31:54- Of course, Derby, Royal Crown Derby, and massively collected across the world.- Massively.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56- But it is brand new. - It doesn't matter.- Oh.

0:31:56 > 0:31:58When it comes to a quality collectible, these objects,

0:31:58 > 0:32:02they won't hold their retail value, at retail today this might be £78.

0:32:02 > 0:32:07- Would it?- But she's such a fine bird, she'll make, I hope, £30.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10Will she? £35 paid, so they might just be a bit shy on that.

0:32:10 > 0:32:15So they're a bit shy on the brush, they're a bit shy on the bird. Now, what about this toddy ladle?

0:32:15 > 0:32:20Yes, again, when we handle antiques and objects, a toddy ladle to me is a true antique.

0:32:20 > 0:32:25It's of a type gone today, we don't use such objects, purely for display,

0:32:25 > 0:32:29and of course, the toddy, back in years gone bike was a popular...

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- Punch, really.- Yes it was. - You'd have a punch party.

0:32:32 > 0:32:39Whalebone handle in good condition, well gadrooned to the rim, inset with a coin of 1797,

0:32:39 > 0:32:42- I like it very much, Tim. - How much do you like it?

0:32:42 > 0:32:44I like it, Tim, between £50 and £80.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47- Gosh, £45 paid.- Good. - That's very good, isn't it?

0:32:47 > 0:32:53So they've got two dodgy ones, they may need their bonus buy, let's go and have a look at it.

0:32:53 > 0:32:56Now, Chris and Betty. You spend £140, which is modest.

0:32:56 > 0:33:00You gave Thomas £160, what did he spend it on?

0:33:00 > 0:33:07- I nearly spent it all on a very nice silver fish slice.- Very nice.

0:33:07 > 0:33:13It's William IV, 1835, two years before Victoria's reign, solid silver,

0:33:13 > 0:33:17- London, just a nice, quality item. - It's very nice.

0:33:17 > 0:33:21The price I thought was quite reasonable - £130.

0:33:21 > 0:33:22BOTH GASP

0:33:22 > 0:33:25But before you suck in your breath and all this,

0:33:25 > 0:33:32what you've got to realise is, 1835, you've probably got at least eight ounces of silver there, maybe seven.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35So you're already looking at £70, full stop, scrap weight.

0:33:35 > 0:33:40- But then 1835, find me another. - Is there a profit in it, Thomas? - Definitely.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43- Definitely? - You watched his lips.- I hope so.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47- That is a confident prediction. - It is, absolutely.- Do you like it, Betty?- I do like it, actually.

0:33:47 > 0:33:52- I think it's very nice. I like it a lot.- That's good. - It sounds a lot of money, though.

0:33:52 > 0:33:55It may all be on the money, but you don't decide now, you decide later.

0:33:55 > 0:34:00For the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Tom's slice.

0:34:00 > 0:34:02There you go, Charles. Handsome.

0:34:02 > 0:34:04- Fine quality, Tim, it really is handsome.- Heavy.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08We often see fish forks and knives in their cases, melamine handled,

0:34:08 > 0:34:12and we advise our clients, thanks for coming, but they're worth very little.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15- This is a different kettle of fish, quite literally.- It is.

0:34:15 > 0:34:22Beautifully pierced, this design, beautifully mounted with this crown coronet, made in the year 1835.

0:34:22 > 0:34:28A hallmark for London and the quality is there to really justify it being for high, highbrow clientele.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31- This is creme de la creme. - Creme de la creme.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33On a really good day, Tim, this will make £100.

0:34:33 > 0:34:37- Well, Thomas paid £130 for it. - Ha-ha-ha!- £130!

0:34:37 > 0:34:41- A man of taste.- A man of taste! I think there's some fishy business going on here.

0:34:41 > 0:34:45- Are you taking the sale? - I will be, Tim.- Good.

0:34:53 > 0:34:58Now, Alison, Carlos, here we are on the edge of the auction. You feeling good?

0:34:58 > 0:35:00Yes, very nervous.

0:35:00 > 0:35:04- Yeah, snap.- Well, there we go. It's exciting though, isn't it?

0:35:04 > 0:35:06- We've got a crammed saleroom. - It's packed.

0:35:06 > 0:35:10You couldn't get any more people in here. Here we go with your bowl.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12There we are, a lovely 1950s glass bowl.

0:35:12 > 0:35:18Could be '60s, possibly Murano, I am going straight in at £15 bid.

0:35:18 > 0:35:2218, do I see? For a very fine Murano bowl. Come on, you're all here.

0:35:22 > 0:35:2518, 20 and 22, ma'am. I'm out, do I see five now, surely?

0:35:25 > 0:35:27At £22, do I see five?

0:35:30 > 0:35:32At £22, five is is there?

0:35:32 > 0:35:33Surely one more, look at me.

0:35:33 > 0:35:40Fair warning all done, at £22, once, twice and three times to the lady.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43- Yours.- That's minus £9, bad luck.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46- Now, here comes Wallace. - A very fine early 20th century

0:35:46 > 0:35:49Scottish silver model William Wallace. The great knight.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53I've got one, two, three, four bids here, and I will start at 35, 45...

0:36:02 > 0:36:08Do I see five, surely? 70, I'll take five, surely, five, come on!

0:36:29 > 0:36:31bronzed with a D on the end. I'm only bid £20.

0:36:31 > 0:36:36- Oh, what?- Do I see two now? £20, come on.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38- No way!- This is turning out to be a bloodbath!

0:36:38 > 0:36:4320, I'll take two, five, eight, 30, 35, 40, 45...

0:36:43 > 0:36:45One more, sir, are you sure?

0:36:48 > 0:36:52All done at £40, the gavel is falling now. Yours.

0:36:52 > 0:36:59Oh, dear. Minus 45. Overall, 45, 55... 64. Minus £64.

0:36:59 > 0:37:04- Well, what can I say, David? - Well, it's devastating, isn't it?

0:37:04 > 0:37:08- It's devastating.- Never mind. The right people weren't here on the day.

0:37:08 > 0:37:12- So, what are you going to do about the dish, are you going to do it? - We talked about this.

0:37:12 > 0:37:16- We discussed it.- If it was a profit or a loss, we're going to go for it.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19We've had a good day, we came with nothing and we've had a good day.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22- So far, you're going away with minus 64.- That's right.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Definitely going to do it? You trust David with this.

0:37:24 > 0:37:28So, here we go, here comes the bonus buy,

0:37:28 > 0:37:31here comes bunny on his lettuce.

0:37:31 > 0:37:35Delightful, isn't it? Very nice, I've got one, two, three, four bids,

0:37:35 > 0:37:37and I will start this lot straight in,

0:37:37 > 0:37:41with interest on my book, at £65.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Do I see 70, please?

0:37:43 > 0:37:50£65, do I see 70, 75, 80... I've got five, ma'am, 90, and I'm out.

0:37:50 > 0:37:5390, the lady on the third row, do I see five? Come on,

0:37:53 > 0:37:55surely one more.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57That's not what it's worth, it's worth more.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00I'll take five, once, twice and three times, we're selling to a lady

0:38:00 > 0:38:03at £90, the gavel is falling, at 90 you're all out.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06- Plus 30.- That's good.

0:38:06 > 0:38:10- Well, that has slashed your earlier losses by 50%.- Well done, David.

0:38:10 > 0:38:15So overall then, you are minus £34, which could be a winning score, I have to say.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18- Don't say a thing to the Blues. - Nope, schtum.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31- Now, Christopher and Betts.- Yes?

0:38:31 > 0:38:33Do you know how the Reds got on?

0:38:33 > 0:38:37- No.- Not at all. Good, we're glad about that.

0:38:37 > 0:38:38Are you feeling all right?

0:38:38 > 0:38:41Yeah, just excited about it all, yeah.

0:38:41 > 0:38:45Any particular piece, Chris, that you wish you hadn't bought?

0:38:45 > 0:38:47- The clothes brush.- Oh! - The clothes brush.

0:38:47 > 0:38:49It's the clothes brush of all clothes brushes!

0:38:49 > 0:38:51Yes. And here it comes.

0:38:51 > 0:38:55£10. 10 I'm out, where's 12, come on, I will take 12 now.

0:38:55 > 0:38:59- Look at it, for £12.- You might as well give it away.- I'll take 12...

0:38:59 > 0:39:0212! 15, 18, sir.

0:39:02 > 0:39:0420, madam? Come on, one more.

0:39:04 > 0:39:0722, look at me, sir.

0:39:07 > 0:39:0922? No, thank you very much, it all helps.

0:39:09 > 0:39:14The lady all in at £20, we say sale at £20.

0:39:14 > 0:39:16- I can't believe it.- Shocking.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18- I can't believe it.- Minus £40.

0:39:18 > 0:39:23Our next lot, we've got the very nice Crown Derby wren.

0:39:23 > 0:39:26There it is, will it fly away? We hope so. Where do we start?

0:39:26 > 0:39:29I'm bid £20, do I see two, now?

0:39:29 > 0:39:3222, 25, 28, I've got 30, and two?

0:39:32 > 0:39:35And I'll be out, one more, sir, if it helps you?

0:39:35 > 0:39:40I'm out, do I see five now? Come on, at £32, do I see five?

0:39:40 > 0:39:43Make a name for yourself. At £32, do I see five now?

0:39:43 > 0:39:45Fair warning, all done, we say sell to you, sir.

0:39:45 > 0:39:47At £32, yes we are, it's yours.

0:39:47 > 0:39:50- £32.- Very close.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52- Not bad.- Not bad. - That's not far off.- No.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56- Now your toddy ladle, darling. Is this going to save the bacon? - Oh, please!

0:39:56 > 0:40:0018th century silver toddy ladle, straight in at £45.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03- Oh! You're in the profit! - Do I see 50 now?

0:40:03 > 0:40:07Come on, at 45, 50, I'm out, where's five, come on.

0:40:07 > 0:40:1050, I'll take five, 60, sir?

0:40:10 > 0:40:1165, madam? 70, sir?

0:40:11 > 0:40:16One more. 70, from Chesterfield, you've come so far? He says no!

0:40:16 > 0:40:20At £65, the lady in the stripes, fair warning, I'll take 70.

0:40:20 > 0:40:24- Good girl.- Well done, brilliant. - At £65, we say sale to the lady.

0:40:24 > 0:40:28That's 20, so overall, you're minus 23, which is not too bad.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31That could be a winning score, minus 23.

0:40:31 > 0:40:34It could be a winning score, minus 23.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Or you could go with the fish slice, what are you going to do?

0:40:37 > 0:40:41- No.- Not going for the fish slice? - You're going to stick? - We're going to stick.

0:40:41 > 0:40:45Do you know, I think you're probably a little bit sensible here.

0:40:45 > 0:40:49By gauging the way that things have been going, I think that is a very good choice.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52- Thank you.- Good, I hope. - Anyway, that's it, no bonus buy?

0:40:52 > 0:40:56- No.- OK, fine, well, we're going to sell it anyway, here it comes.

0:40:56 > 0:41:02A fish slice, look at that. It's a wonderful item of great quality.

0:41:02 > 0:41:04I am bid £35.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06Do you know, that's offensive.

0:41:06 > 0:41:0945, 55, 60, one more, sir, come on.

0:41:09 > 0:41:1465, 70? Come on, one more. £65 there, do I see 70? It's solid silver.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16You made the right decision.

0:41:16 > 0:41:18Do I see 70 now?

0:41:18 > 0:41:2165, 70, five?

0:41:21 > 0:41:2670, you're in, sir, right? 70, I'll take five, 80? One more, sir?

0:41:26 > 0:41:32- At £75, I will take 80, all right, at £75, all out, we say sale.- £75.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34We did right to do that, didn't we?

0:41:34 > 0:41:39- You certainly did. - I am surprised we're only minus 23.

0:41:39 > 0:41:44So that 's minus 55, but you didn't go with it, so your overall score is minus £23.

0:41:44 > 0:41:45That's not bad, is it?

0:41:45 > 0:41:50It's not bad, actually. It could be a winning score and all will be revealed in a moment.

0:41:57 > 0:42:00Well, you children, have you been talking to one another?

0:42:00 > 0:42:06- ALL: No.- Well, it's no surprise to either of the teams that neither of them are going home with money!

0:42:06 > 0:42:10But, there is only £10 between them.

0:42:10 > 0:42:16- ALL: Ooooh!- So this is a needle match and I'm afraid to say that the runners up are the Reds.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18Yes!

0:42:18 > 0:42:20Which is surprising.

0:42:20 > 0:42:27This is surprising, because David Barby did contribute a £30 profit with that bronze.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30- Yes, very good, very good. - He did, thank you, David.

0:42:30 > 0:42:34Might have thought that would claw it back for you, but it was not sufficient

0:42:34 > 0:42:37- to stem the tide of the Blues. - Well done!

0:42:37 > 0:42:44- Thank you.- And the Blues' success was principally made up by Betty's toddy ladle.- I knew, I knew!

0:42:44 > 0:42:49Your responsibility, therefore you're minus 23, and you're minus 34.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51That's how it works. Have you had a good time?

0:42:51 > 0:42:53- Fantastic.- We've loved having you on the show.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55Join as soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?

0:42:55 > 0:42:57ALL: Yes!
