0:00:03 > 0:00:06Today we've got two teams of mothers and daughters pitting their

0:00:06 > 0:00:11wits against one another in an attempt to get the best bargains.

0:00:11 > 0:00:13Who'll succeed? Let's find out.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16Let's go bargain hunting!

0:00:47 > 0:00:52Today the Bargain Hunt wagon rolls into Derby.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54Let's have a quick peek at what's coming up.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Mark gets wound up by our headstrong Blues.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01I'm sick of all this modern nonsense.

0:01:01 > 0:01:05OK. We might follow your advice.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07And the Reds are keen to drive down the prices.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11- How does 95 sound?- Lower!

0:01:11 > 0:01:12I take it all back.

0:01:16 > 0:01:21Before we meet today's teams, let's have a quick reminder of the rules.

0:01:21 > 0:01:27Our two teams have £300 and just 60 minutes to find three bargains which will be sold at auction.

0:01:27 > 0:01:33The winning team is the one that makes the most profit or the least loss.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37Let's go and meet those yummy mummys and their chicks.

0:01:40 > 0:01:45So for the Reds today we have mother and daughter, Diane and Lucy.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48Welcome. And, Lesley and Sam, mother and daughter for the Blues.

0:01:48 > 0:01:51- Hi, girls.- Hi.- What a smashing set-up we've got today.

0:01:51 > 0:01:56Two teams of girls, my favourites. Now, Diane, what do you do for a living?

0:01:56 > 0:02:01- I work in retail selling ladies' handbags.- Do you?- Designer ones, yes.

0:02:01 > 0:02:02They'd be special then?

0:02:02 > 0:02:04- Definitely.- Big ones, little ones?

0:02:04 > 0:02:06- All sizes, all colours.- Really?- Yes.

0:02:06 > 0:02:11- Because this is such a design statement for a woman nowadays? - Definitely.

0:02:11 > 0:02:17And they'll pay a fortune for this bag covered in special skins and tanned leathers, is that right?

0:02:17 > 0:02:19That's right.

0:02:19 > 0:02:22- I understand you also have a passion for ducks?- I do, I'm afraid.

0:02:22 > 0:02:26- Tell us about that.- I just love... Jemima Puddleduck's my favourite.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29I've got hundreds of them all over the house and garden.

0:02:29 > 0:02:32So duck a l'orange doesn't really feature on the menu?

0:02:32 > 0:02:34I do enjoy that as well!

0:02:34 > 0:02:38- Well, as long as you don't take it too seriously, that's good.- No.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Lucy, what do you get up to, darling?

0:02:40 > 0:02:42I work for a designer fashion retailer.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44I'm a manager of a store in Derby.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Do you sell handbags?

0:02:46 > 0:02:49- We do, actually, yes. - Do you employ your mother?

0:02:49 > 0:02:51I don't, did used to.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55A few years ago, but not any more, no. She's gone onto new pastures.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58What's it like working for the daughter?

0:02:58 > 0:02:59Brilliant, actually.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01Yes, it was, it was good. She was a good boss.

0:03:01 > 0:03:04What's your strategy today between the two of you?

0:03:04 > 0:03:06We'd like something quirky.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Definitely. Quirky.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- And, are you going to spend all your money, or not?- We'll try.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14- I like the sound of that. Good luck.- Thank you.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17- Now, girls, Lesley and Sam. Welcome. - Thank you.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19What do you do for a living, Lesley?

0:03:19 > 0:03:21I'm a canine hydrotherapist and dog trainer.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Gosh...

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Does that mean you teach dogs how to swim then?

0:03:25 > 0:03:29Yes, we do. We go in the pool with them and get them going, yeah.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31So why do they need to go in the pool?

0:03:31 > 0:03:36Exercise, fun and also for injuries and arthritis and things like that.

0:03:36 > 0:03:40- And have you ever lost any dogs? - No, we've never drowned any yet!

0:03:40 > 0:03:42I didn't mean lose them permanently!

0:03:42 > 0:03:45I mean, they might not take to going in the water.

0:03:45 > 0:03:46- No, they do normally.- Do they?

0:03:46 > 0:03:50Yeah, sometimes I have to go in twice, three times is the most I've had to go in.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52- What, you go in the pool too? - I do, yes.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55- With the dogs?- First swim, yeah. Helps get them going.

0:03:55 > 0:03:58What do they do, breast stroke or doggy paddle?

0:03:58 > 0:03:59Hopefully doggy paddle.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02What fun! Sam, what do you do, darling?

0:04:02 > 0:04:05Well, I'm a mum.

0:04:05 > 0:04:09I've got a little girl who's five years old and I've got a little baby who's six weeks old.

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Little Alfie and Chloe.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16I also work part-time at the Vintage Motorcycle Club organising their events.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18Are you a biker yourself?

0:04:18 > 0:04:23Since I've started working there I have turned into a little bit of a lady biker now.

0:04:23 > 0:04:28I took my test after a year working there.

0:04:28 > 0:04:36It took me a couple of chances to take my test because the first time I failed after driving into a bush.

0:04:36 > 0:04:37Even though you were in the club?

0:04:37 > 0:04:41- Yeah.- So to speak!

0:04:41 > 0:04:43So what are your tactics, girls?

0:04:43 > 0:04:45If you're going to have one, mum, have a...

0:04:45 > 0:04:46- Have a big one.- Yes.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49I beg your pardon?

0:04:49 > 0:04:50Looking for something large!

0:04:50 > 0:04:54- Oh, are we? - Size is everything to us, isn't it?

0:04:54 > 0:04:58What, you don't care how much profit there is in it, or what the quality is, as long as it's big?

0:04:58 > 0:05:02- As long as it's big, yes. - Well, I've never heard that before on Bargain Hunt.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04It's a good strategy though, isn't it?

0:05:04 > 0:05:07Anyway, £300 apiece, here's your £300. There you go.

0:05:07 > 0:05:12- Thank you very much.- Experts await, you know the rules and off you go and very, very good luck.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14It's a bit like life this, isn't it?

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Big ones, little ones.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Time to meet our experts.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22Looking after the Reds is David Barby.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26The Blues are in the safe hands of Mark Stacey.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28- Now, you're both into animals, aren't you?- We are, yes.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30Have you got a beast of a plan for us, today?

0:05:30 > 0:05:35Just a bit of a one, we're looking for something in the animal line.

0:05:35 > 0:05:41There are thousands and thousands of objects here, can I just suggest it's got to be a spontaneous feeling.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43- Yes.- You look at something and say, "We'll go for that."

0:05:43 > 0:05:48- We won't lead you astray. - You lead me astray, I like being led astray. Shall we go?

0:05:48 > 0:05:50- We shall, yes.- Come on, then.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52We ought to get started, I'm getting anxious.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55- Yeah, definitely.- More excited. - Excited, let's go.

0:05:55 > 0:05:58- What are those over there, those dogs?- Let's have a look at those.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Do grab at anything you want to look at and we'll go from there, OK?

0:06:01 > 0:06:03That's nice, isn't it? That's a child's...

0:06:03 > 0:06:07I have seen them in much, much better condition.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09I think that might be slightly out of our price range!

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Yes, it is a bit.

0:06:11 > 0:06:12Yes.

0:06:12 > 0:06:13That's nice.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Hazel wood.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Hazel wood.

0:06:17 > 0:06:22I didn't realise Denby did so many patterns and colourways.

0:06:22 > 0:06:26- It's beautiful, it really is.- I like the striped design all the way round.

0:06:26 > 0:06:30The other thing I like is the fact that you can see how the paint has been applied.

0:06:30 > 0:06:36- That's right. Fantastic. - It almost looks like an Islamic script.- That's true.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Actually it does. I think it would appeal to a wide range.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43I think so as well. What's the best on that, £8?

0:06:43 > 0:06:4510.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48I don't think that's too bad. I think we could easily make a profit on that.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51- I do. - Split the difference at nine, sir?

0:06:51 > 0:06:55- Go on.- £9. £9, that's good.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58We've got a profit with that, David.

0:06:58 > 0:06:59- Really?- Yes.

0:06:59 > 0:07:02It's not going to break the bank, I don't think.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05- No, I hope there's a profit there. - Let's hope so. Let's go for it.

0:07:05 > 0:07:08Or else!

0:07:08 > 0:07:12As promised, the Blue team are leading Mark astray.

0:07:12 > 0:07:14The ponies look realistic, the fox doesn't.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18Right, I really like the look of that.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20I really like the look of this goat, here.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22I'm eager, I want to buy something.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24It's quite good looking.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26It's very good looking, yeah.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28Are you interested in making a profit, or not?

0:07:28 > 0:07:30You'll be lucky!

0:07:30 > 0:07:34What is your best price for that gorgeous stallion?

0:07:34 > 0:07:38- Neigh!- That is sweet, isn't it? - It is sweet.- Bourne of Denby.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41Of course, everybody thinks in terms of Denbyware.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42Yes, that's right, the pottery.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46- So the stallholder's asking £110 for this.- Yes.

0:07:46 > 0:07:51- Where do I need to go?- Lower!

0:07:51 > 0:07:53- How does 95 sound? - It's still a bit much.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57Bearing in mind you've got to look round the fair, see what there is, make a decision and come back.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01- This is one you can come back to. - Keep in mind.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03- Bear it in mind.- Well, I don't even have a card, so...

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Goodbye.- That's it, goodbye Bingo.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08Might see you later.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10Bingo?!

0:08:10 > 0:08:13I will just warn you we've done 20 minutes already.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16So a third gone and we haven't bought a thing yet.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19- So just bear that in mind. Off we go. - OK.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22- Thank you very much.- Thank you.

0:08:22 > 0:08:29- If we can see a nice looking animal then fine but if not we need to look at things that are decorative.- Right.

0:08:29 > 0:08:32Very modern, very modern...

0:08:32 > 0:08:37I quite like this fox here because if you look at his face he's realistic.

0:08:37 > 0:08:38- Right.- He's the right colour.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41He's the right colour and a good shape.

0:08:41 > 0:08:42Is he wood or pot?

0:08:42 > 0:08:46I don't know what... Resin, I think to be honest with you.

0:08:46 > 0:08:4818 quid.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50If we could get that for a tenner.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53- Yeah.- It's on your head.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55I think that's absolutely revolting.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57- It's not...- I like that.

0:08:57 > 0:08:58I do like that.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00It's not old but...

0:09:00 > 0:09:03I'm not going to get involved in the negotiation.

0:09:03 > 0:09:06If you want to buy it then go, grab it and go and discuss it.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10Can I have a word with you about the fox here.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12It's just a nice, modern fox.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- Yeah. What do you think your best price is on it?- 15.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18- You couldn't go down to ten for us? - No, that would be a loss.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21- Would it?- OK.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23What do you think about 15?

0:09:23 > 0:09:26I think it would probably make 15 at auction?

0:09:26 > 0:09:28I'd like that for 15.

0:09:28 > 0:09:30Shall we upset Mark and get it?

0:09:30 > 0:09:36Yeah, let's upset Mark and buy it. He'll go away, he won't want to be with us anymore.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38I'm with you, Mark.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44- It's London 1946.- It's silver.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49We can take it away from the stall.

0:09:49 > 0:09:52- That's fine.- Now, what do you think?

0:09:52 > 0:09:57It's quite a pretty piece. Considering it's so old it's got a modern twist.

0:09:57 > 0:10:03That's it. This is the first impact of design after the war, so it's almost American in concept, isn't it?

0:10:03 > 0:10:07- Right.- Think of those bold pieces of jewellery worn by the stars.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10I think that's very nice, very modern-looking. Just handle it.

0:10:10 > 0:10:11It's very light.

0:10:11 > 0:10:16- It is very light, that's why I was shocked as well.- Just think of the style, the design of it.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19What's the best price the lady could do?

0:10:19 > 0:10:22- 65.- Do you see a profit in that?

0:10:22 > 0:10:24I think it's so unbelievably stylish.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28Because it's hallmarked, it's silver, it could go.

0:10:28 > 0:10:32- That's right.- Just have a feel of it.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- It's lovely.- Would you wear it?

0:10:35 > 0:10:38- Yeah, I actually would. - Can I see it on your neck?

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Let's have a look.

0:10:39 > 0:10:44Quite nice, and I think it would move quite nice as well because of the way the links are.

0:10:44 > 0:10:48- Do like that?- Yeah, I do. - Do you like it enough to buy now?

0:10:48 > 0:10:52I think so going on your judgment. Can we just go and see if we can get a little bit of a better price?

0:10:52 > 0:10:56OK, come on, we'll have a natter over here.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58- Best of luck, Lucy.- Thank you.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02Let's go round the corner and see what we can find out here.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Is that Peter Rabbit at the back?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Where?

0:11:08 > 0:11:13I have had a word with the stallholder and the very best price would be the 65, she said it is

0:11:13 > 0:11:16the trade price and that's it, there's no budging I'm afraid.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18I like it immensely.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Shall we go for it?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22I think so. Put 1940s on there.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24- It's quality.- Yeah.

0:11:24 > 0:11:29- You are quality, aren't you? - We are, let's do it.- You buy it.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33Let's hope you've got enough money!

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Don't let anybody tell you there aren't bargains to be had

0:11:36 > 0:11:39in these fares, because I promise you, there are.

0:11:39 > 0:11:43What do you think about this little treasure?

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Little is the word, isn't it?

0:11:45 > 0:11:51Here we've got a sweet little brush that were it full size, you could see it lying on

0:11:51 > 0:11:58an Edwardian Lady's dressing-table, and she'd have used it for brushing her hair, or even her clothes.

0:11:58 > 0:12:03It's a kind of little novelty, this thing, I love it because the silver has been embossed

0:12:03 > 0:12:09with this diagonal, raised stripe which means it easy to grip, and

0:12:09 > 0:12:14of course it does beg the question - what exactly is this brush used for?

0:12:14 > 0:12:17Well, there would be lots of theories as to what you might use a

0:12:17 > 0:12:24little brush like this for, but my guess is that it's a muff brush.

0:12:24 > 0:12:29Every well-dressed woman at the end of the 19th century would have had a a muff to keep her hands warm

0:12:29 > 0:12:37in during the winter, and she would have used a muff brush to give her little muff a little dusting over.

0:12:37 > 0:12:44So what's it worth? Well, this thing is available down the road, after negotiation, for £10.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47What's it worth? The specialist dealer,

0:12:47 > 0:12:51let's go and find out, shall we? And there's a specialist dealer downstairs.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53Let's see what he thinks.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Maestro! How are you?

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Now, if you can do me a favour, I need a valuation please,

0:13:00 > 0:13:03you're a specialist in small pieces of silver.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05What's that worth retail?

0:13:05 > 0:13:0795?

0:13:07 > 0:13:09With a fair wind behind you, 95.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14- The wind up its brush?- Yes.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16£95.

0:13:16 > 0:13:18He's my friend!

0:13:18 > 0:13:23- A tenner. Not bad, eh? - The trust is in you now.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28At the end of the day I think you two are quite firm in what you want to buy.

0:13:28 > 0:13:32- These experts have a lot to put up with, eh?- You bought that necklace.

0:13:32 > 0:13:37That's a good buy at £65.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40- You've got to buy something similar, or a little bit more expensive.- Yes.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42We keep finding animals now.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Yes, everywhere we look, there's animals.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48I quite like the look of the horse and foal at the back. What do you think?

0:13:48 > 0:13:50They're Beswick, I think.

0:13:50 > 0:13:56It's not of any great age but quite nice, certainly better than the fox you bought.

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Mind you, that's not saying much!

0:13:59 > 0:14:01Are these nice?

0:14:01 > 0:14:03What's the best price on those?

0:14:05 > 0:14:07I've got 88.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- So 50, then.- How much? Sorry, no.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- 70.- £70.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18What do you think at auction?

0:14:18 > 0:14:23I would have thought maybe 50 to 70 at auction, so it's not that far-off actually.

0:14:23 > 0:14:25But do you like them?

0:14:25 > 0:14:28- I do quite like them.- They're quite well modelled, I suppose.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30You've got a lot of detail on them.

0:14:30 > 0:14:31I think it's money though, isn't it?

0:14:31 > 0:14:35Can you manage a little bit more off for us?

0:14:35 > 0:14:39- They are polite though, aren't they? - They are.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41- You've got to give them polite. - We'd be grateful.

0:14:41 > 0:14:43It's lovely, isn't it?

0:14:43 > 0:14:4760. We'll do 60.

0:14:47 > 0:14:49Thank you very much.

0:14:49 > 0:14:51- You happy with those?- Definitely.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54There we are, two down.

0:14:54 > 0:14:56One to go. Now we can relax a bit.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58We can go for that horse now.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00Mark will disown us if we go back for the horse?

0:15:00 > 0:15:02- I will.- Me, too!

0:15:02 > 0:15:06Thank you very much. Lovely, thank you.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Can I have one of those as well?

0:15:09 > 0:15:13I got it for 30 quid!

0:15:13 > 0:15:15So decadent.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Beautiful.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20Can we find something decent now of good quality?

0:15:20 > 0:15:22I'm sick of all this modern nonsense.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25OK, well, we might follow your advice.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28- I very much doubt it. - We will listen to what you say now!

0:15:28 > 0:15:31- You've got a look of the Eva Braun about you!- Unusual, isn't it?

0:15:31 > 0:15:32It would be used as an inkwell?

0:15:32 > 0:15:34Yes.

0:15:34 > 0:15:38£60.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40- It is lovely.- Feel the weight of it.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44You see, it's weighted enough so it's not going to slide off the table.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47Of course. It's lovely actually.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50- And what price was on this?- 60.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53You can imagine the fountain pen laid on and dipping the ink.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Are things like this still popular?

0:15:55 > 0:15:57It's the design.

0:15:57 > 0:16:04It's chunky, heavy, and all these rivets and screws, you can imagine it on some industrial

0:16:04 > 0:16:08Scottish castle, something like that.

0:16:08 > 0:16:14I just think that's a more useable, you'd look at it, it's a more unusual item.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17And it could be storytelling when you have guests round.

0:16:17 > 0:16:22I think I'm going to ask the gentleman to put it on one side for 10 minutes.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26It will give us a chance to do the rest of the fair because it's unfair

0:16:26 > 0:16:29to other dealers who came here today that we don't look at their goodies.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31- I agree.- Let's say for 10 minutes.

0:16:31 > 0:16:35- OK.- Right girls, we need a bit of quality now.

0:16:35 > 0:16:36We need something decent.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Please, please, please.

0:16:38 > 0:16:43Love bags! Wow.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45What do you think of the condiment set at the back?

0:16:45 > 0:16:50- Very nice, but they're probably out of our budget. - I quite like that though.

0:16:50 > 0:16:53You might like it, but if we haven't got the money, you can't have it!

0:16:53 > 0:16:55- Can we find out how much it is anyway?- We can ask.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00It's £220.

0:17:00 > 0:17:02They're very good.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05I think it's lovely quality.

0:17:05 > 0:17:09The little cartouche there so can put your initials on.

0:17:09 > 0:17:13Each piece is hallmarked as well, so it fits in very nicely.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15- It is very nice.- What do you think?

0:17:15 > 0:17:18I like that.

0:17:18 > 0:17:19What is the price?

0:17:19 > 0:17:22- 220.- Can we negotiate on that?

0:17:22 > 0:17:24OK.

0:17:24 > 0:17:29I was thinking, to be honest with you, we've spent a little bit of money already.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32Is there any way we can get it under the 200?

0:17:32 > 0:17:35No, 200.

0:17:35 > 0:17:38- Not 195?- Not even 195 with a couple of kisses?

0:17:38 > 0:17:41Not even ... well, now you're talking!

0:17:43 > 0:17:46- Not me! - We'll throw in a cuddle as well.

0:17:46 > 0:17:47A cuddle as well, 195.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49Have we got a deal on 195?

0:17:49 > 0:17:52I think we'll go for that.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54- OK, you're on.- I'll shake your hand.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Go to work.- Come on!

0:17:57 > 0:17:59One from you.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01And two from me!

0:18:01 > 0:18:02Right!

0:18:02 > 0:18:06- Girls, have you found anything? - No, just looking at handbags.

0:18:06 > 0:18:12- I had a word with the dealer, so rather than put it on one side, we can have it at £50.- Brilliant.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14Fantastic, we love it.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16- Really?- We're happy to go with that.

0:18:16 > 0:18:21- £50?- We like the piece. - That's our quirky.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24I like the piece, and £50 kind of sways it.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- There you are. Go and give him the money.- Fantastic, let's go.

0:18:29 > 0:18:31Right, the shopping time is over.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35Now it's down to the experts to find a bonus buyer with the all that left over lolly.

0:18:35 > 0:18:40But first, let's remind ourselves what the reds have bought.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45They picked up a Denbigh bowl for £9.

0:18:45 > 0:18:49They found this silver necklace, it cost £65.

0:18:49 > 0:18:54And finally, Diane and Lucy bought a brass inkwell for 50 smackers.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00- You're a formidable team, you lot, aren't you? Are you pleased with yourself?- Very.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Jolly good. Well, you all had a bit of a tickle there.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05Which is your favourite piece?

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Actually, I think the Denbigh bowl that we bought

0:19:09 > 0:19:13because that's close to our home and we kept it a bit nostalgic really.

0:19:13 > 0:19:18- What about you?- Mine would definitely be the silver necklace, I could see myself wearing that.

0:19:18 > 0:19:22Well, you won't be able to, I'm afraid. You bought three items for a miserable amount.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24What did you spend? 120?

0:19:24 > 0:19:26124.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29So please may I have 100 and ...

0:19:29 > 0:19:31- how much?- 76.

0:19:31 > 0:19:33There you go, you're better at maths than me. £176.

0:19:33 > 0:19:37The leftover goes to the maestro. What are you going to do with that?

0:19:37 > 0:19:40We've got enough money to buy something special.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42And very good luck!

0:19:42 > 0:19:45Why don't we remind ourselves for the Blues have bought?

0:19:45 > 0:19:47A plastic ...

0:19:47 > 0:19:51I mean a resin fox was bought for £15.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55They spent £60 on a Beswick Black Beauty and her foal.

0:19:55 > 0:20:02And finally, Lesley and Sam bought a silver crewit frame for £195.

0:20:02 > 0:20:05Well, you bucked up, girls, didn't you?

0:20:05 > 0:20:06How much did you spend in the end?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08£270.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11- That will be £30 of leftover lolly. - Yes, it is.- Have you got that?

0:20:11 > 0:20:14I have still got it.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18- Very good. Which is your favourite piece?- The fox. - The fox.- Look at that.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20In unison.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22Brilliant. £30 of leftover lolly.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25Here you go, Mark. Not much for you.

0:20:25 > 0:20:29Not much but I don't mind, because you can't go too wrong with 30 quid, can you?

0:20:29 > 0:20:34- And I think I've got my eye on something that these two birds might like.- Would that be avian?

0:20:34 > 0:20:36- Oh, I don't know. - That would be saying, wouldn't it?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38You flit off, then, Mark.

0:20:38 > 0:20:44I am going to flit south, as the crow flies, to Buckinghamshire.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53Welcome to Claydon House.

0:20:53 > 0:20:59This place was inherited by Sir Harry Verney in 1827.

0:20:59 > 0:21:05He was a traveller, soldier, Member of Parliament and all-round thoroughly good egg,

0:21:05 > 0:21:10but the house that he inherited had been knocked about a bit, like me.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16Claydon House was once three times its current size.

0:21:16 > 0:21:20200 years ago, it was hugely enlarged to look like this,

0:21:20 > 0:21:25but when the owners run out of cash, the extensions were knocked down.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Can you believe it?

0:21:27 > 0:21:30But at least 12 rooms of this size were lost

0:21:30 > 0:21:36when all that extension was demolished. Extraordinary.

0:21:36 > 0:21:44Well, not exactly everything was lost, I have to admit, because they did retain some of the 1760s carving

0:21:44 > 0:21:50which had been in that extension, and you can see remnants of it in this room today.

0:21:50 > 0:21:55For example, the trail of grape carved fronds over there,

0:21:55 > 0:21:59elements on the library bookcase.

0:21:59 > 0:22:04All these corbels and tops to the bookcases were reused in the 1820s.

0:22:04 > 0:22:10Plus, of course, the supports for this table, which look like Scabelli,

0:22:10 > 0:22:14or the back supports of Italian chairs, which were brought out of

0:22:14 > 0:22:21store when the table arrived here, and the table itself is a beaut.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23Just look at that.

0:22:23 > 0:22:27It's massive, it's heavy, it's Italian.

0:22:27 > 0:22:32It was made in 1825 and you know that, because here

0:22:32 > 0:22:38is the maker, C Ciuli, fecit anno 1825.

0:22:38 > 0:22:42When Harry Verney went to Italy in that year,

0:22:42 > 0:22:47he and his best friend, Lord Weston, saw this table top.

0:22:47 > 0:22:51Harry Verney wanted to buy it, he couldn't afford to buy it.

0:22:51 > 0:22:57Weston bought it and when it was delivered to Britain, it arrived damaged.

0:22:57 > 0:22:58In fact, it was smashed.

0:22:58 > 0:23:03His friend, Weston, gave it to Harry Verney as a gift.

0:23:03 > 0:23:09Harry Verney, rather cunningly, got in touch with Mr Ciuli and said, "How much to repair it?"

0:23:09 > 0:23:13The Italian said, "Give me £100 and the job is done."

0:23:13 > 0:23:17He gave him £100, it got sent back to Italy, expertly repaired and sent

0:23:17 > 0:23:20back here, and this is what we see today.

0:23:20 > 0:23:26A solid lump of marble, beautifully inlaid in micro mosaic,

0:23:26 > 0:23:31with a mask of Silenus, one of those Bacchic types,

0:23:31 > 0:23:37plastered in grapes, and then this really chunky acorn wreath.

0:23:37 > 0:23:42Stuck in each of these corners, a sort of pine cone,

0:23:42 > 0:23:48which was an accepted finial for the top of a Roman staff.

0:23:48 > 0:23:53When it comes to pietre dure and micro mosaic work,

0:23:53 > 0:23:57quite frankly, it doesn't get better than this.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00And the whole thing, this whole polychrone image,

0:24:00 > 0:24:05is made up of a series of minute chips.

0:24:05 > 0:24:10Chips - not a word I normally mention on this programme, so shall

0:24:10 > 0:24:16we say, made up of lots of little bits of inexpensive fried potato?

0:24:18 > 0:24:23Well, David and Mark have had enough time to bag their bonus buys, so let's head off to the auction.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41We've slipped from Derbyshire to Nottinghamshire, for a breath of

0:24:41 > 0:24:44fresh air, with Nigel Kirk at Mellors & Kirk. Hi, Nigel.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48- Welcome.- Very nice to be here.

0:24:48 > 0:24:54This Hazelwood pattern Glyn Colledge bowl couldn't get much closer to home, could it?

0:24:54 > 0:24:59Absolutely, it was made in Derby at the Denby factory of Bourne's.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02- It's very typical of its period, 1960s.- They paid £9.

0:25:02 > 0:25:08They're not going to lose very much. I think they'll probably get out of that and make a small profit.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11It's the pieces that he actually painted himself which will

0:25:11 > 0:25:14sell well, whereas that's something he designed that was mass produced.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17- What are you saying? 10 or £15? - Yes.- OK, brilliant.

0:25:17 > 0:25:23- Next, the silver necklace that would like to be Jensen, but ain't. - This is very tinny and thin.

0:25:23 > 0:25:30Jensen jewellery is beautifully made and generous in terms of the metal involved.

0:25:30 > 0:25:34Yes, as you say, thin and miserable, but nevertheless stylish.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37- How much?- I suppose 50 to £70.

0:25:37 > 0:25:41£65 paid, so they may get out of trouble with that.

0:25:41 > 0:25:45Lastly is this brassy so-called standish, inkwell really.

0:25:45 > 0:25:50- It is in what I call the "rivet it together" school.- Absolutely.

0:25:50 > 0:25:56If you wanted to do anything in the way of a hinge, you've got this terrible construction here.

0:25:56 > 0:26:02- Yes, it's very crude.- I don't care about arts and crafts, but arts and crafts people have a sensitivity.

0:26:02 > 0:26:05- Yes.- They really love the material that they are using.

0:26:05 > 0:26:08It's one of the ugliest things I've seen in a long time.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11It's very far removed from the ideals of William Morris, that's for sure.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16- I would say so.- The kindest thing you could do is plate it.- Quite.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Make it into something that it isn't.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Anyway, I despair. How much do you think it's worth?

0:26:21 > 0:26:2340 to 60 on a good day.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Good. Well, they only paid £50 and I mustn't be too sniffy,

0:26:26 > 0:26:29because it is what it is, so I'll just simply shut up.

0:26:29 > 0:26:34In fact, I think they're going to need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.

0:26:34 > 0:26:37Well, well, well. The moment of truth.

0:26:37 > 0:26:41What has David Barby spent all your leftover lolly on?

0:26:41 > 0:26:46You gave him £176 of leftover lolly, which is quite a lot of cash.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49- What did you spend it on, David? - Didn't spend it all, Tim.

0:26:49 > 0:26:54But what I did buy was this, I think, marvellous set of silver spoons.

0:26:54 > 0:26:59English silver spoons, dating from the beginning of the 20th century,

0:26:59 > 0:27:01by a silversmith called James Fenton,

0:27:01 > 0:27:08who specialised in these sort of enamel-type floral decoration on jewellery and also on silverware.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11- I think they are exquisite. - Lovely, lovely.

0:27:11 > 0:27:14And its solid, solid silver.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17I paid £100 for these.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19- What, for the lot?- For the lot.

0:27:19 > 0:27:23What are we looking at perhaps that they could fetch?

0:27:23 > 0:27:27- I'd like to see somewhere between 150 and 200, maybe.- Right.

0:27:27 > 0:27:30- I think they are exquisite. - They're beautiful.- Lovely.

0:27:30 > 0:27:34- Yeah, you're happy with that, aren't you? You quite like them?- Yeah.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36There we go.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40You don't decide now, you decide after the sale of your first three items,

0:27:40 > 0:27:45but for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about David's set.

0:27:45 > 0:27:48So, Nigel, something to get your teeth into.

0:27:48 > 0:27:50These are great, aren't they?

0:27:50 > 0:27:55I know sets of silver coffee spoons or teaspoons are perhaps not terribly sought after,

0:27:55 > 0:27:59but these are very decorative and lovely little arts and crafts spoons.

0:27:59 > 0:28:03It's the sort of tragedy of the dining room cupboard

0:28:03 > 0:28:09that these are sat in a box since 1902

0:28:09 > 0:28:14or whatever it is, too good to use, special precious things, and as a result, they've come to us today...

0:28:14 > 0:28:17In mint condition. Yeah, they're great.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19It's a little miracle. What do you think they might bring?

0:28:19 > 0:28:23I think they will make 100-150, they are saleable.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25I think you're absolutely right.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28How exciting. That's it for the Reds, now for the Blues.

0:28:28 > 0:28:31I have an apology to make about this first item.

0:28:31 > 0:28:37We have no control over what are contestants might buy and they've come up with this resinous fox.

0:28:37 > 0:28:42Yes, I'm afraid I'm rather underwhelmed by this creature.

0:28:42 > 0:28:47I like foxes but I think this is probably the nastiest rendition of a fox I've ever seen.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51- This lovely term, resin, does of course cover the fact that it's made of plastic.- Yes.

0:28:51 > 0:28:56I feel really ashamed to come to a quality sale room with a £15 resinous fox but they've done it.

0:28:56 > 0:28:59Will you get a pound note for it?

0:28:59 > 0:29:02I think they deserve to lose nearly all of what they've paid!

0:29:02 > 0:29:03They might get five or £10.

0:29:03 > 0:29:06There it is, a pound or two, perhaps, but they only paid 15.

0:29:06 > 0:29:14Good. Next is the Beswick horses, or rather foal and mare.

0:29:14 > 0:29:18- How do you rate that?- Well, the Beswick factory is an example

0:29:18 > 0:29:21of a Staffordshire factory which has suddenly become terribly collectable.

0:29:21 > 0:29:25Unfortunately, this is a fairly common example.

0:29:25 > 0:29:27Right, so therefore not worth much?

0:29:27 > 0:29:30- No.- How much?- 40 or £50, I imagine.

0:29:30 > 0:29:34That's OK but it will have to canter away if it's going to get to 60.

0:29:34 > 0:29:39The last item, I think you'll agree with me, is absolutely splendid in its way.

0:29:39 > 0:29:42It is, and by a distinguished maker.

0:29:42 > 0:29:48- Yes. You've had some successful sales of Mr Fox's productions before?- Yes, indeed we have.

0:29:48 > 0:29:51They can usually be relied on to make many thousands of pounds.

0:29:51 > 0:29:55Like how many thousands of pounds? Whet our appetite.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57Maybe ten or 15,000 for a fine example.

0:29:57 > 0:30:03Sadly, this is less distinguished but it is still by Fox and should sell reasonably well.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07- What sort of money do you think? - I think it will probably make £100, 150 perhaps.

0:30:07 > 0:30:12Well, £195 is the challenge. Mark Stacey loved it and I can see why.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15Yes, I can, it is not an unreasonable thing to have bought.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18They could come out on the right side.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20Ff it doesn't go so well, they are going to need

0:30:20 > 0:30:23the bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.

0:30:23 > 0:30:26OK, Lesley and Sam, both looking equally gorgeous.

0:30:26 > 0:30:33£270 you've spent, giving Mark Stacey £30 of leftover lolly. Now, did you blow the lot, Mark?

0:30:33 > 0:30:38I'm afraid I did, Tim, and I blew it on these three wonderful 19th-century engravings.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40I'll hand them to you.

0:30:40 > 0:30:44They're of birds, and I know you're into nature and things like that.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47And I particularly like this one of the dodo.

0:30:49 > 0:30:52- Very nice, yes.- What do you think?

0:30:52 > 0:30:56- I'm not entirely convinced, to be honest!- Well, what more can I say?

0:30:56 > 0:31:01- As long as they don't go the way of the dodo...!- Or the fox.

0:31:01 > 0:31:05- Oh, no, the fox was lovely.- What sort of period do they date from?

0:31:05 > 0:31:10The dealer's written out all the details here, and they're 1791,

0:31:10 > 0:31:12Tim, so very late 18th century.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14How much did you spend on them?

0:31:14 > 0:31:16£10 each. Thirty quid for the three.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20- Oh, well, that's not bad.- No. - Well, that's all you left me!

0:31:20 > 0:31:23They seemed to have perked up once they knew how cheap they were.

0:31:23 > 0:31:27What do you think they'll sell for at auction?

0:31:27 > 0:31:33I'd certainly like them to make their money back. £10 or something?

0:31:33 > 0:31:37You don't have to decide now. In fact, if you loathe them, you don't have to take them.

0:31:37 > 0:31:43But for the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Mark's birds.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45Nigel, rather fun, look.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48- Well, yes!- Three engravings.

0:31:48 > 0:31:53They're three engravings after the Count de Bouffon, from his famous History Naturelle.

0:31:53 > 0:31:59Sadly, they're plates from a book, and it's a great shame that the book has been mutilated like this.

0:31:59 > 0:32:05- In fact, on the reverse you'll see the letter press beneath each engraving.- Oh, yes!

0:32:05 > 0:32:08I mean, the book itself, had it been left intact,

0:32:08 > 0:32:13would obviously have been worth many hundreds of pounds, but these are just plates from the book.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16Yes. So a difficult thing for you to estimate.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18You wouldn't ordinarily sell three like this.

0:32:18 > 0:32:20What are you going to do for us, then? £10?

0:32:20 > 0:32:23I would have thought they might make £10 or £20, but it's in the lap of the gods.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Poor old birdie! Anyway, good luck.

0:32:33 > 0:32:36I was just hanging around, minding my own business, I was

0:32:36 > 0:32:41passing the jewellery cabinet and something just came out and bit me,

0:32:41 > 0:32:44and this is what did the biting.

0:32:44 > 0:32:50It's the most traditional piece of Edwardian jewellery you could probably, possibly ever find,

0:32:50 > 0:32:55a little bar brooch, but such an unusual design.

0:32:55 > 0:32:58You've got a crescent here, which is composed of two types of stone,

0:32:58 > 0:33:06wee diamonds on the inside and then on the outer edge of the crescent some very pale sapphires.

0:33:06 > 0:33:13In the middle of the crescent we've got a rising star, a brilliant cluster

0:33:13 > 0:33:20of bright-cut diamonds, look, and then, going along the knife edge of the bar itself, some more stones.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23But the cluster at either end I find most interesting.

0:33:23 > 0:33:29These three coloured stones represent red, white and blue, actually a piece of pearl,

0:33:29 > 0:33:37a little sapphire and a ruby, look - red, white and blue for patriotism but also, just at the end of

0:33:37 > 0:33:43the 19th century, the beginning of the entente cordiale, that moment when

0:33:43 > 0:33:48England allied itself closely with France, the old traditional enemy,

0:33:48 > 0:33:55simply to counter the Kaiser's expansionist plans in Europe at the turn of the century.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58So you see, it does tell you a story.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01The other nice thing about it is that it's dual function.

0:34:01 > 0:34:06It's got the bar on the back for the traditional brooch pinning, but

0:34:06 > 0:34:10also, if you look at the end here, you've got that loop, a suspension

0:34:10 > 0:34:17loop, which will enable you to hang this thing from a chain around your neck, converting it into a pendant.

0:34:17 > 0:34:21Now, I'm not into body piercing personally at all, but if I just

0:34:21 > 0:34:28pierce my lapel here and hang it vertically,

0:34:28 > 0:34:30look how handsome that is.

0:34:30 > 0:34:37Do you know, men don't normally wear flashy pieces of jewellery like this, but I quite fancy it.

0:34:37 > 0:34:39Do you fancy it?

0:34:39 > 0:34:43Well, it could be yours for £200 to £300.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46Now, that is what you call inexpensive.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59Now, you two animal-obsessed women,

0:34:59 > 0:35:04- I am predicting big trouble with the resinous fox, all right?- Never.

0:35:04 > 0:35:10- Yep. I am predicting big trouble with the Beswick connoisseur range of Black Beauty.- Never.

0:35:10 > 0:35:16- No!- And I am predicting big trouble with the fox frame.

0:35:16 > 0:35:20- Ooh, dear.- What I'd say is stand by for a bloodbath.- No!

0:35:20 > 0:35:24Lot 115 is the resin model of a fox.

0:35:24 > 0:35:28Very realistic. £20 for it, please. 20? 20 I am bid. Thank you. 20.

0:35:28 > 0:35:3125 anywhere? 25 for it?

0:35:31 > 0:35:32£20, then, in the window.

0:35:32 > 0:35:36We'll sell it, maiden bid of £20.

0:35:36 > 0:35:37I take it all back.

0:35:37 > 0:35:40I just knew that was going to happen.

0:35:40 > 0:35:44Look out now, Black Beauty. Here we go.

0:35:44 > 0:35:49Lot number 116, the Beswick group of Black Beauty and foal. £20, please.

0:35:49 > 0:35:5320 for it? Beswick group. 20 I am bid. At 20. 5 anywhere?

0:36:01 > 0:36:02All done?

0:36:02 > 0:36:06Is it 35? It's 35, so you are minus 25 on that.

0:36:06 > 0:36:10You're minus 20 overall. Look up, here comes that cruet stand.

0:36:10 > 0:36:16117 is the Victorian silver cruet by Charles and George Fox, 1857.

0:36:33 > 0:36:38At £100. Selling on the left at 100.

0:36:38 > 0:36:40He's done it again. £100.

0:36:40 > 0:36:45That is minus 95, which means overall you are minus 115.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47- Oh, dear.- Team!

0:36:47 > 0:36:52So now what are you going to do about these flying birds, or not-so-flying birds?

0:36:52 > 0:36:55- We hate them.- You hate them?- We do.

0:36:55 > 0:36:59- But in for a penny, in for a pound. We're going to do it.- We trust Mark.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01- Oh, my God!- You trust him?

0:37:01 > 0:37:03- We trust Mark. Definitely.- Lovely.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05I don't think that's wise today, girls.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07You're going with the bonus buy then.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09- Yeah.- OK, going with the bonus buy.

0:37:09 > 0:37:12Three 18th-century engraved plates from an edition of

0:37:12 > 0:37:15Bouffon's Natural History. £20 for them, please.

0:37:15 > 0:37:1920 anywhere? £10 for the plates. A little bid of 10? 10 I am bid.

0:37:19 > 0:37:21Thank you, sir. At 10. 15 for them?

0:37:21 > 0:37:25- Oh, there's a telephone bid coming in for them.- £10 and selling.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28Oh, sold for £10.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30Mark, I'm so sorry about that.

0:37:30 > 0:37:38- That is minus 20, giving you a grand total, or a not-so-grand total, of £135...- Oh, dear.

0:37:38 > 0:37:40- ..of losses.- Oh, dear!

0:37:40 > 0:37:42- Minus 135.- Never mind.

0:37:42 > 0:37:47- Look, there's no point in ruining the Reds' day, so don't mention a word.- OK.

0:37:47 > 0:37:48We won't.

0:37:56 > 0:38:00Next up, that lovely crescent brooch. Gosh, I could fancy that.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03£200 to £300 is the estimate.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05Let's see what happens.

0:38:05 > 0:38:11The Victorian, late Victorian sapphire and diamond crescent bar brooch, and bidding here of 150.

0:38:11 > 0:38:16At 150. 60. 70. 180. 190 on my right.

0:38:24 > 0:38:25At £300, then, in the gangway.

0:38:25 > 0:38:29Selling at £300. Your bid, sir.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31£300. Well, there you go, you see?

0:38:31 > 0:38:35Top estimate, top quality, top spotted, eh?

0:38:38 > 0:38:40So, are you feeling excited, you girls?

0:38:40 > 0:38:43- Yeah, really are.- Yeah! Can't wait!

0:38:43 > 0:38:44Does your mum get excited like this?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47All the time! Can you not tell?

0:38:47 > 0:38:49I'd sort of got a bit of a feeling that she might

0:38:49 > 0:38:52be on the edge of excitable, but now we've got the proof.

0:38:52 > 0:38:54Teetering on the brink.

0:38:54 > 0:38:57- But you're cool, aren't you? - As a cucumber.

0:38:57 > 0:39:01First up, then, is the Denby bowl, and here it comes.

0:39:01 > 0:39:05Denby stoneware bowl, designed by Glyn College. £20 for this, please.

0:39:05 > 0:39:0920? £10, then, to get on. A little bid? £5?

0:39:09 > 0:39:12- Come on!- £5 I am bid.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14A lowly bid of £5. 10, do I see?

0:39:14 > 0:39:16£5 only, then. Maiden bid.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18- Oh, dear.- I can't believe that?

0:39:18 > 0:39:23You're minus four, and this is the heartland of Denby.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25A silver necklace,

0:39:25 > 0:39:28and £20 I am bid for this necklace.

0:39:28 > 0:39:31At 20. 25 anywhere? 25. 30? 30. 35.

0:39:31 > 0:39:335. 40?

0:39:33 > 0:39:36- 40. 45? 45. 50.- I think it's lovely.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40£45. 50 for it? At £45.

0:39:40 > 0:39:41Oh, £45.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43£45. That's minus £20.

0:39:43 > 0:39:48That's another torpedo job. Now here comes the stand dish. We're on.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51The Arts and Crafts movement brass inkwell.

0:39:51 > 0:39:54And £30 for this lot is bid.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57£30. 35 for it? 35 I am bid. 40?

0:39:57 > 0:40:01£40. 45 seated. 45. 50, may I say?

0:40:01 > 0:40:08£50. 55. 60? 60. 65. 70. 65 seated.

0:40:08 > 0:40:09£65.

0:40:09 > 0:40:11Yes, that's it. £65.

0:40:11 > 0:40:16You are plus 15 on that, which means overall you are minus £9.

0:40:16 > 0:40:19- £9 is not so bad, is it? - We've got to come up on this.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21- Are you excited now?- Yeah, very. - Yeah, I thought you were.

0:40:21 > 0:40:24What about this bonus buy lark, then, eh?

0:40:24 > 0:40:26- Are we going to...- Yes! Yes!

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Yeah, we're going to go with it.

0:40:28 > 0:40:32Everybody thinks they're lovely. We're going with the lovely spoons.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35Set of six silver and enamel coffee spoons

0:40:35 > 0:40:38by James Fenton, Birmingham 1906.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40£50 I have for this lot. At 50. 5.

0:40:40 > 0:40:4360. 5. 70? 70. 75 anywhere?

0:40:43 > 0:40:48At 75. 80. 5. 90.

0:40:48 > 0:40:515. 100. And 10? At £100 here.

0:40:51 > 0:40:54And selling with me at 100... And 10? Waving at me at the back?

0:40:54 > 0:40:57Selling at £110.

0:40:57 > 0:40:59He's sold it. £110.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01You were minus £9.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04You are up one pound!

0:41:06 > 0:41:07It's a profit!

0:41:07 > 0:41:10And I think you've done unbelievably well.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14So that's 50p for you, 50p for you.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16- I shall treasure it. - Let's go and buy a cup of tea.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24Well, we've had some surprises today, haven't we?

0:41:24 > 0:41:28We've reached for the sky and we've gone down the trough.

0:41:28 > 0:41:31Of course, we don't have losers any more on Bargain Hunt,

0:41:31 > 0:41:34we simply have runners-up, and the runners-up today are

0:41:34 > 0:41:36the Blues.

0:41:36 > 0:41:39- No!- I mean, not surprisingly, really, because your sole

0:41:39 > 0:41:42- intention was to buy things connected to animals.- Yes!

0:41:42 > 0:41:47You bought your stuff relating to the animals, resin animals in particular. What happened?

0:41:47 > 0:41:50You made a profit on the resin one!

0:41:50 > 0:41:53Did you hear about that? Made a profit on the resin fox!

0:41:53 > 0:41:55It's a disgrace, that.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57Shows what we know about anything.

0:41:57 > 0:42:01Anyway, you went straight down the old rabbit hole after that.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03- £135 of losses.- Yeah.

0:42:03 > 0:42:05Not so brilliant, eh?

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Well, if you're going to do it, do it in style.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10I quite agree! And you have been a great team, and I hope you've had fun.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13- Yes, we have. - We've really enjoyed it, thank you.

0:42:13 > 0:42:17Well, it's been super. But the victors today, who have made

0:42:17 > 0:42:19a spectacular upside on their arrangements...

0:42:19 > 0:42:26I mean, they have made so much cash, it'll turn your fleeces green...

0:42:26 > 0:42:30I'm going to give you your profit for the day, which is a pound.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33LAUGHTER

0:42:33 > 0:42:41You get 50p, and Mummy gets 50p. And all I can say to you children is don't spend it all at once!

0:42:41 > 0:42:43- We won't!- Feeling happy about that?

0:42:43 > 0:42:46- Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. - Are you?- I'm going to frame it.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49Yes. Definitely can't spend it. Anyway, it's been a great show.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52- Join us soon for some more bargain hunting. Yes?- Yes!
