0:00:02 > 0:00:03Today, it's girls versus boys.
0:00:03 > 0:00:07Stand by for a monumental battle of the sexes as we go bargain hunting!
0:00:07 > 0:00:09All right, chaps. Oh yes.
0:00:33 > 0:00:37We're at Corby at the Deene Park Antiques Fair
0:00:37 > 0:00:41which is compact but perfectly formed
0:00:41 > 0:00:44with stands crammed with antiques and curiosities.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48But will our teams be able to find the bargains?
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Let's have a quick peek and see.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Cor, the boys are quick off the mark.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57- I can see you down the pub on a Friday night in that.- I know.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Drinking beer out of it!
0:01:00 > 0:01:04And eventually, the girls find their feet. Ha!
0:01:04 > 0:01:08I'm quite happy to wear a decapitated bird foot on me.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10I'm not sure anyone else would.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14And I find a few surprises at the Sheffield Millennium Gallery.
0:01:14 > 0:01:20This soup tureen was made to hold turtle soup.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24That's all to come. Let's meet the teams...
0:01:24 > 0:01:28Welcome girls. Charlie and Louise, and Jack and Ash for the boys.
0:01:28 > 0:01:29Hi.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Louise, you are such good mates that you each have
0:01:33 > 0:01:36spare rooms in your houses dedicated to each other.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- We do.- So you can do a sleep-over? - We do.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43My room in Charlie's house is decorated to my preference as well.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48- And vice versa?- Well, near enough. - Charlie, you have an unusual hobby.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50- I have, yes.- Tell us about it.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54I am a member of MCW Wrestling Company
0:01:54 > 0:01:57and I'm a female wrestler for sports entertainment.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01- You never are! Are you really? - I am, yeah.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04I've never had a female wrestler on Bargain Hunt before!
0:02:04 > 0:02:08So this wrestling lark, do you take your kit off for that?
0:02:08 > 0:02:12- How does it work?- Well, I leave some items on!- Oh right, yeah.
0:02:12 > 0:02:17We have a costume, a character and it's performance, so it's fun.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21- What's your ringside name? - It's Poison.- Is it? Scary.
0:02:21 > 0:02:27- What are your tactics today? - Spend a little. Make a lot.
0:02:27 > 0:02:32- You're not going to spend much? - We're trying not to. - Beat the prices down!
0:02:32 > 0:02:35We're going to steal their items!
0:02:35 > 0:02:40- If stall holders aren't nice to you, give them a special throw into the barbed wire?- That's right.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- They'll get a quick busting crab. - Today's shopping is outside.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48You'll find a nice roll of barbed wire behind the marquee.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Good luck, girls. Boys, frightening, isn't it?
0:02:50 > 0:02:56- Have you ever come across female wrestlers, ever?- No.- I'm scared.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59- Ash, it's antiques that brought you together.- Mainly.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03We've been going to school together for the last eight or so years.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06But be both went to car boots without actually knowing,
0:03:06 > 0:03:09then we met each other at a car-boot.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12- Were you trying to buy the same thing?- I think we were, actually.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Buying and selling between the two of us.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19I suppose you could say the friendship blossomed from there.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22So over eight years what sort of things have you been going for?
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Toy cars. Trains, that's our domain. That area.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31- So you like Dinky, Meccano, Hornby? The big names.- Yeah.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34What are your team tactics today then, boys?
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- What will you do to beat these wrestlers?- I don't know if we can beat wrestlers.
0:03:38 > 0:03:43We are going to give it a good shot. I think we'll buy things you wouldn't expect.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Unusual things?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48- We'll be different. - You want the oddball?- Definitely.
0:03:48 > 0:03:53- Are you going to spend all your money?- It's not our money, so probably, yeah.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57That is a very good answer. And indeed it's the money moment.
0:03:57 > 0:04:02£300 apiece. You know the rules. Your experts await and off you go.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Very, very good luck. How lovely. Such unusual teams.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11I think they're going to need a bit of help.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13From Charles Hanson!
0:04:15 > 0:04:18And David Harper.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24And they're off, armed of course with the rules
0:04:24 > 0:04:27because each team gets £300 and an hour to shop for three items
0:04:27 > 0:04:30which they sell later at auction and the team wins
0:04:30 > 0:04:32that makes the most profit.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33Simple really, isn't it?
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Now, I'm not needed for a bit, so let's have a bit of a read.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Go on then, off you go! - The hour starts now.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45£300 burning a hole, what are we going to do with it?
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Bargain, bargain, bargain!
0:04:47 > 0:04:50I think we've got to look for like, old toys,
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- like car models, things like that. - Maybe trains as well.
0:04:53 > 0:04:58How unusual, the girls want bargains and the boys want toys. Ha!
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- I'm well liking that. - I'm well liking it as well!
0:05:02 > 0:05:09- But I don't know what it is. - We beat the expert.- Already!
0:05:09 > 0:05:11You said it!
0:05:11 > 0:05:12Charlie?
0:05:14 > 0:05:18A pair of gas lamps from Langham Baptist chapel.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Wow! What's the price on them?
0:05:21 > 0:05:25£65. What's the best, madam?
0:05:25 > 0:05:29I could do them for 55 for you. I don't think I can do them much less.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32We are so early in our time. We've had two minutes.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35- Can you save them for us?- I will. - Lovely.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39- I think that's really cool. - Can you see me in this?- I can.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43What's it worth? £15? 20?
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- £40.- He'll take a bid from you, and from you.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47- 30.- Sold!
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Oh girls, stop mucking about!
0:05:56 > 0:05:58These war medals are very interesting.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02So which ones do you think we've got a chance to make a profit on at auction?
0:06:02 > 0:06:06- The Indian war medal will.- So that medal was issued to a native Indian?
0:06:06 > 0:06:10- A Sepoy.- A Sepoy, yeah. - It's all on there, round the rim.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Can we have a look at that one? - Yeah, it's all wrapped up.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18- The best I would do is 90. - Is that trade?- That's trade, yeah.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- Are you into medals, chaps? - It's quite modern history,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25this 1900 period is something that quite fascinates me.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29So this character, whoever it was, served from 1897
0:06:29 > 0:06:34- to at least to 1902 so not only in Victoria's reign, but in Edward's reign.- Yeah.
0:06:34 > 0:06:38And the ribbon is in good condition, too.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42- Medals aren't my forte. - I know they're not.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- 85, but that's it. - I think it's worth a go.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46- Do you want have a go?- Yep.
0:06:46 > 0:06:51- Shake his hand and do the deal. - Thank you, sir.- Thank you.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59- Anything there you like?- No. - Let's walk on.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05Talking of walking, I've found some rather smashing old sticks.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10One of the most highly collected items that you find
0:07:10 > 0:07:13in these fairs are these chaps.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17I've found these two, one is for sale and one isn't.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20The one that's for sale is this fellow.
0:07:20 > 0:07:26This is a piece of cane that was once growing in the jungle in Java, or Batavia.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Look up the end, it's hollow which makes this thing extremely
0:07:30 > 0:07:37light weight and it has the charm of an attached silver handle
0:07:37 > 0:07:42which is also slim and elegant and feels just gorgeous to the touch.
0:07:42 > 0:07:47The other encouraging thing is the price.
0:07:47 > 0:07:53I reckon this cane, to a specialist came collector, is worth £180.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56What would it cost you here?
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Well, it's available on a stand down there for £65.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03That's what they call a snip.
0:08:03 > 0:08:08Now this one, which isn't for sale, is much more extraordinary.
0:08:08 > 0:08:13Every square inch of this walking-stick
0:08:13 > 0:08:16is covered in this knotted cord.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19The thing is what is called sailor work.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23This is what sailors on sailing ships in the 19th century
0:08:23 > 0:08:27did during their voyages around the world.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31The idea being to create a novelty like this,
0:08:31 > 0:08:37using their extraordinary skills with ropes and knots
0:08:37 > 0:08:41that would entertain and frankly earn them cash when they get back home.
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Because around the ports of Britain,
0:08:44 > 0:08:47the visitors would buy objects like this
0:08:47 > 0:08:49directly from the sailors at the docks.
0:08:49 > 0:08:54But I have to tell you one thing, it LOOKS like a walking stick,
0:08:54 > 0:08:57but it doesn't ACT like a walking stick,
0:08:57 > 0:09:00because if I put it on the ground and put some pressure on it,
0:09:00 > 0:09:04Look what happens. Boing! Like that, see?
0:09:04 > 0:09:09So the sailor that sells this on the docks is selling a novelty,
0:09:09 > 0:09:10a novelty which is a joke.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Great, isn't it?
0:09:14 > 0:09:18What isn't a joke about this though, is its likely value.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22The dealer doesn't want to sell it. He thinks it's so marvellous he wants to hang on to it.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26I said to him, "how much might you expect for it if you were
0:09:26 > 0:09:31"to sell it?" and he thinks it would be worth 400-£600.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35But he isn't selling. So he can get knotted!
0:09:35 > 0:09:40- Into pirates?- Yeah.- Aye! - Aye aye, captain. There we go.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46I quite like this here.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48It is so Victorian in style. Look at the form.
0:09:48 > 0:09:53It's this desk stand, typically high Victorian taste, typically 1890s.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57You've got these two ink bottles here, they come out like so.
0:09:57 > 0:09:58And what's it made of?
0:09:58 > 0:10:03Bronzed rather than being bronze, a coated base metal. Do you like it?
0:10:03 > 0:10:05- I love it.- It's nice.- I love that.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I wonder how old it really is?
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Sir, may I ask you please how old you think this little object is?
0:10:10 > 0:10:141890, 1892, High Victorian.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17I would say it could be 1900.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20I quite like it because it has a nice feel about it.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Just feel the weight of that, Louise.
0:10:22 > 0:10:23Wow!
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Heavy, isn't it?
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Oof, yeah!
0:10:27 > 0:10:29The big question is, is it a reproduction?
0:10:29 > 0:10:33I don't think it's a reproduction. I think it's an original desk set.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37And does it matter that the clock's not working?
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Well, if we wind it up, it might still...
0:10:40 > 0:10:42THEY LAUGH
0:10:42 > 0:10:43Sorry. It's not working.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46- Do you want me to prop you up with my knee?- Please!
0:10:46 > 0:10:47How much is that?
0:10:47 > 0:10:4945.
0:10:49 > 0:10:5245. What do you think?
0:10:52 > 0:10:57I love it. And what's your best on that, sir?
0:10:57 > 0:10:5938, how's that?
0:10:59 > 0:11:01- Shall we think about it? - Can we come back?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- We've seen, so far, the lamps, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06I like either. It's up to you.
0:11:06 > 0:11:07I like the lights.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10I like the inkwells.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11LAUGHTER
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Shall we think for five minutes, no more?- Yes.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15- I love that.- Do you?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Shall we buy it, then? - No, but I want it for ME!
0:11:19 > 0:11:26Girls, don't leave it TOO long before you start shopping, please.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Tell me what you think about that. Where's it from?
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Have a hold. I'm passing it to you cos it's blinking heavy.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36It is heavy. Is it some sort of tribal piece or something like that?
0:11:36 > 0:11:40Positively tribal. From where, do you think?
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- Africa?- It's got to be, hasn't it?
0:11:43 > 0:11:45It's got that African edge to it.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48And I can with confidence say this is not new.
0:11:48 > 0:11:49Yeah, you can tell.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52The marks just here as well.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54That is all hand-cut. It's quite crudely cut,
0:11:54 > 0:11:58it was never meant to be a very fine piece of furniture
0:11:58 > 0:12:00but I tell you what, it's bomb-proof.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- You could chuck it out of a window.- Yeah, it's heavy!
0:12:03 > 0:12:06- I just don't know about it. - Shall we just get a price on it?
0:12:06 > 0:12:10- We've got one there.- Yeah, but we can get him down a bit further.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Hi, guys. What's the trade on the tribal stool here?
0:12:13 > 0:12:14About 110.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Really? Is that trade?
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Yeah, it's a really good old one.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21I've got to say, I rate it very highly.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- It couldn't be like 70 quid, guys, could it?- No.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27- I can do a hundred on it at the most.- I don't know.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30I think we're going to have to work on you two.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I do like the tribal stool, I've got to say.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34I know, I'm liking it too. Just got to win this one over.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36I just think we should have a look around.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40All right. Come on. But if it was me, I'd be buying it!
0:12:40 > 0:12:42It's not all about you, David.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48Girls, stop window-shopping now, get spending.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Look at this.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Whoa!
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Providence is a really, really important factor
0:12:55 > 0:13:00and I, four-five years ago, bought one of these...
0:13:01 > 0:13:04..on Bargain Hunt for £20
0:13:04 > 0:13:06and it went to auction
0:13:06 > 0:13:07and made £105.
0:13:07 > 0:13:08Wow!
0:13:08 > 0:13:11And it's almost identical.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Fantastic.
0:13:13 > 0:13:18Chrome-plated, Italian, it's got the feel of the 1950s,
0:13:18 > 0:13:22think of the great American motor car, and it's red.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27High risk, high gamble. It worked for me last time. What do you think?
0:13:27 > 0:13:29- We like red.- We do like red.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Do you? It's on at £45.
0:13:32 > 0:13:38If we could buy it for 25 or thereabouts, I would speculate,
0:13:38 > 0:13:42solely based on what my last one made about five years ago.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44How does it work with the electrics?
0:13:44 > 0:13:48For auction, the actual compliance would require the plug
0:13:48 > 0:13:53to be cut off and then for an electrician just to give it the test
0:13:53 > 0:13:55to confirm it's safe to use.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59But they are great icons. Probably this one's 1970s, 80s.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01They have a great look about them.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Is there any damage on that one?
0:14:03 > 0:14:04Have a look.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09There you go. I think it's probably a '70s one. I love it.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12It's just so iconic, of an age.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15Have you got something on your nose or you just..?
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Not convinced.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18- Not convinced?- No.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19I really like this.
0:14:19 > 0:14:25I just don't know if it will go in modern-day.
0:14:25 > 0:14:26Shall we try £18?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28But you must like it.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30- Let's do it, come on. £18 or nothing.- Yep.
0:14:30 > 0:14:35Hello, there. We like the fire but we don't like the price.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38We've got one offer and one offer only...£18.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- I'm afraid that wouldn't... - What would be your lowest?
0:14:41 > 0:14:42The lowest would be 38.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Would you take 35?
0:14:44 > 0:14:4635? I'll take 35, yeah.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Do we trust the men on this one?
0:14:49 > 0:14:51- Man power!- Man power!
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Not girl power, believe in man power, OK?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57- £35.- Go on, do it.- Deal.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Thank you very much. Cheers.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02You'd better be right!
0:15:02 > 0:15:03I'll be right.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08So electrical goods for the girls
0:15:08 > 0:15:11and a...lampshade for the boys?
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- That's nice. - Yeah, it's different, isn't it?
0:15:14 > 0:15:16- Do you like that?- Yeah, it's...
0:15:16 > 0:15:18Let's have a look at it.
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Another heavy piece.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Two wires, so that would need rewiring.
0:15:22 > 0:15:26Let's have a look on the underside.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Probably 1930s, or '40s.
0:15:29 > 0:15:30'40s.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Now, is it glass or plastic?
0:15:34 > 0:15:35I think that's plastic.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37It's a plastic one, isn't it?
0:15:37 > 0:15:41I think it's glass, because on one of them, it's cracked.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44It's sort of age-related.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- What sort of trade is that?- Er...
0:15:49 > 0:15:52- I could do that for 35.- 35?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Do you think it'd make some profit?
0:15:54 > 0:16:00I think it's got a chance, Steve, if it was £20.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Come on!
0:16:02 > 0:16:0325.
0:16:03 > 0:16:0525?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- Do you like it?- Yeah, I mean...
0:16:07 > 0:16:08It's a good price.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11I'd be more happy if it's 20.
0:16:11 > 0:16:1225 quid, you can't go wrong.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15It might make 50, it might make 60 and again,
0:16:15 > 0:16:16how much are you going to lose?
0:16:16 > 0:16:18The most you're going to lose...
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Well, it's never not going to get a bid on it.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22It's going to get a bid, yeah.
0:16:22 > 0:16:26- Yep.- That's a safety one. We like a bit of safety.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Got to go out there, bag your safe one.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31- 25 quid, thanks a lot.- Cheers.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- Wow!- That is awesome.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37- Do you like it? - No, but it's fantastic.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Isn't that absolutely lovely?
0:16:39 > 0:16:40I want one of them.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Like it? Raaaarrr.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45- That's an unusual piece, silver-topped.- Wow!
0:16:45 > 0:16:47I would say...
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Well, it's your choice, Louise.
0:16:50 > 0:16:51It's gross!
0:16:51 > 0:16:53It's really nice!
0:16:53 > 0:16:55You need to decide, OK?
0:16:55 > 0:16:58No, she won't let me buy the dead bird foot.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00- It's my chicken's foot.- Oh, go on.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Wise decision, Charlie.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Oh, God. He's running again.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08What is with all the running?
0:17:08 > 0:17:09Right.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12Out of that wind.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15Out of the wind, redo my hair, you know how it is.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Follow me. Look at this.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Wow!
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Just stagnating, isn't it? Just sitting here.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28The top will come off? Yes, there we are. I quite like it.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30And what would it have been?
0:17:30 > 0:17:32- A dough box.- A dough box?
0:17:32 > 0:17:33No lead lining any more.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36- So it would have been for the purpose of...?- Rising the dough.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38- Out of ten, how do you like it?- Zero.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40- Zero?!- Nothing for me.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43- Charlie, friends? - Probably a three or a four.
0:17:43 > 0:17:44You're joking?!
0:17:44 > 0:17:45THEY LAUGH
0:17:45 > 0:17:48- Thanks for inviting me!- He's fired.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50- I'm fired?!- Let's go.- Oh, right.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- Yeah, it's plastic.- OK.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59There's only one of those stools here.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01I don't think you'll find anything nicer.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03I think we should play safe.
0:18:03 > 0:18:04Play it safe.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06Do you want to play it safe and buy that?
0:18:06 > 0:18:07OK, yeah.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10- That's a good cane, isn't it? - It is nice.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11That's lovely.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Do know what, it's a wonderful cane and I just wonder
0:18:14 > 0:18:17if it's out of our price range.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20- Ah.- Is it not?- I don't know. There's no price.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23I don't know, how much do you want to spend?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26First of all, Malcolm, tell me about it.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28We know that it's a vertebrate, but I'm not sure
0:18:28 > 0:18:30whether it's a snake...
0:18:30 > 0:18:33- Wow.- It's fantastic. - ..or a reptile invertebrate.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37If you're interested in it, we can do a bit on the price.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40I would think it's, what? late Victorian?
0:18:40 > 0:18:44I'd have thought, looking at it, Louise, Charlie, 1870.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- Malcolm, what's the best price on it?- Bucket price...
0:18:48 > 0:18:51..cos I like Charles, £115.
0:18:52 > 0:18:57We agreed not to spend more than £100 on a single item.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Do you love the cane? - I love the cane.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03I want to whip you with the cane.
0:19:03 > 0:19:04Ooh, steady on!
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Let's make some decisions.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10- Let's do it! - Malcolm, we'll have your cane, sir.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14Well done, girls. Two down and the boys are after a hat trick.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17Windy out here. One of you big, strapping lads grab the stool,
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- cos it's too heavy for me.- Easy!
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Chaps, obviously...
0:19:23 > 0:19:25- You like it?- Yeah.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28And we don't have very much money and we hate spending money.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31What's the absolute double death trade to me?
0:19:33 > 0:19:35£90 and that's it.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38I would pay £90 for that every day of the week.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41- Yeah, it's something different. - Are we going to have it?- Yeah.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45- Thank you.- Thanks.- Cheers mate.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48It's going to be a sprint finish for the girls.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52Now, what will it be? The clock or the lamps?
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- We've got two choices. - It's your choice, Lou.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Out or in?
0:19:59 > 0:20:03- Out.- Is it in the dough box?- No.- No.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06- Literally four minutes to go. - Oh, God!
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Run, Forrest!
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- There it is.- Yay!
0:20:12 > 0:20:17It's got to be, I think, the best price you can get.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19- Now, how much do you like it? - Very much.
0:20:19 > 0:20:25- Right, you've got four minutes to go in there, negotiate and buy.- £28. Go.
0:20:29 > 0:20:35- Hi, I've come to barter.- Hello, kind sir.- Because we love you so much.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Right, is that what it's all about, then?- Yes!
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- We've got it.- You bought it?- Yes.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45Hooray, they're done with only minutes to spare.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47I'd better stop the clock.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Let's take another peek at what the Reds bought.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56Charles eventually persuaded the girls
0:20:56 > 0:20:59the electric heater was hot stuff. Ha!
0:20:59 > 0:21:00As the hour run out,
0:21:00 > 0:21:04Charlie fell in love with the snake vertebrae cane.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07In the dying minutes,
0:21:07 > 0:21:11Louise chose to go with the Victorian clock and ink stand.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17Hey, come on, guys, that's enough of that. Share it round.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20- You finished, which is a great relief, isn't it?- Yes.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24- How much did you finish up by spending in the end?- 185.
0:21:24 > 0:21:29£185, that's brilliant, so we've got £115 of leftover lolly.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32This is a nice sum to give you, Charles. £115 is grown-up.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36- I'm quite nervous, Tim.- Are you? - There's lots of girl power here.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38I must be careful and spend it wisely.
0:21:38 > 0:21:43- You must be careful cos they'll be after you.- Exactly.- Good luck, Charles. Good luck, girls.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Why don't we check out what the Blues bought, eh?
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Ash pinned his hopes on the Indian campaign medal.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55The glass lampshade set them back £25.
0:21:57 > 0:22:03And David pushed them towards the £90 African carved stool.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06- Hello, Tim.- Isn't that lovely?
0:22:06 > 0:22:10These two boys make you look thoroughly short.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12And me, too, actually.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- You must be 6'1, 6'2, something like that?- Yes.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19- Tim, I'm 6'3.- Get out! - They must be seven foot.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21If you're 6'3, I'm 5'11(!)
0:22:23 > 0:22:26- Anyway, how did you get on? Had a good time?- Yes, very good.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29- Really enjoyed it.- How much did you spend?- We spent £200 on the dot.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32£100 of leftover lolly, please. Nice and blustery today.
0:22:32 > 0:22:37We don't want that lot blowing away. £100, David. That's folding money.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40- Got any ideas?- I think something young and trendy and funky.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- Like ourselves. - For our young bucks.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45- What?- Young bucks.- Oh, that's right.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48My hearing's a little faulty, you know. Anyway, very good luck.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51For me, I'm heading to Sheffield. What could be more divine?
0:22:58 > 0:23:04The sheer ingenuity and imagination of the workers here in Sheffield
0:23:04 > 0:23:07led to this place becoming known as
0:23:07 > 0:23:10the metalworking metropolis of the world.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Just look at this thing. Isn't it wonderful?
0:23:17 > 0:23:20Here at the Sheffield Millennium Gallery,
0:23:20 > 0:23:25we have the candle stands, teapots, the cutlery that you'd expect,
0:23:25 > 0:23:28but also there are some pure flights of fantasy.
0:23:37 > 0:23:41For example, would you go to a dinner party today
0:23:41 > 0:23:45and expect to find one of these flapping round on the sideboard?
0:23:45 > 0:23:48Well, once upon a time, it might have been thought commonplace
0:23:48 > 0:23:53because this Sheffield plated soup tureen
0:23:53 > 0:23:59in the form of a green turtle was made to hold turtle soup.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01And from the 17th century,
0:24:01 > 0:24:05green turtle soup was a delicacy that was imported.
0:24:05 > 0:24:12And soup made to go inside and ultimately be ladled out with some ceremony.
0:24:12 > 0:24:18Another oddball and really rather fantastic object is this.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20It's in the form of a beehive.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25It's unusual because this thing is actually a tea or hot water urn.
0:24:25 > 0:24:29Normally these hot water urns have a spirit burner underneath
0:24:29 > 0:24:32where the methylated spirits is literally burned
0:24:32 > 0:24:34to heat the liquid contents.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37This one, though, you take the top off,
0:24:37 > 0:24:42there's a central reservation, a cylindrical hole,
0:24:42 > 0:24:48into which a pig of red-hot iron heated in the fire is inserted.
0:24:48 > 0:24:54Then it would radiate heat into the surrounding fluid and keep it warm.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Sheffield produced some pretty extraordinary examples
0:24:58 > 0:25:01of utility items such as this.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04This spoon has got a most extraordinary lip on it.
0:25:04 > 0:25:09And for those of us who sport beards and moustaches,
0:25:09 > 0:25:11it's a very handy spoon.
0:25:11 > 0:25:16You'd simply take your soup and then when you're drinking the soup,
0:25:16 > 0:25:19the serrated raised piece on this side of the spoon
0:25:19 > 0:25:24will enable you to keep your moustache perfectly dry.
0:25:24 > 0:25:30And avoid that rather embarrassing red tomato soup high tide mark
0:25:30 > 0:25:32running across the middle of your upper lip.
0:25:32 > 0:25:37But possibly, today, the most gracious of the items
0:25:37 > 0:25:41of a novelty nature that we are showing you is this thing.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Have you ever seen one of these before?
0:25:43 > 0:25:48Well, it's actually a cucumber slicer.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52What you do is to introduce your cucumber into this end
0:25:52 > 0:25:55where it engages on that rather vicious looking plate.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58And, as you wind the handle,
0:25:58 > 0:26:02so the thread on the side advances the plate
0:26:02 > 0:26:07with the spikes effectively pushing the cucumber to the fore.
0:26:07 > 0:26:14As you whizz the blade around you get wafer thin slivers of cucumber
0:26:14 > 0:26:16accumulating on the bottom here
0:26:16 > 0:26:21which is when the great Victorian dame doing the tea ceremony
0:26:21 > 0:26:23would take the pieces of cucumber and put them on
0:26:23 > 0:26:26wafer thin bits of brown bread-and-butter
0:26:26 > 0:26:30to have with the Earl Grey at 4:15pm.
0:26:30 > 0:26:31How delicious!
0:26:31 > 0:26:35Of course, the big question today is how big a slice of the action
0:26:35 > 0:26:38will our teams achieve over at the auction?
0:26:44 > 0:26:47It's a treat to be in Nottingham at any time of year
0:26:47 > 0:26:51and an even bigger treat to be at Mellors & Kirk, the auctioneers here
0:26:51 > 0:26:52with Nigel Kirk.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56- Nigel, morning.- Good morning, Tim. - Lovely to be here.- Very welcome.
0:26:56 > 0:27:01Rather red on this side of the table dominated by this red bar heater.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Yes.- But it's an excellent looking object, don't you think?
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Isn't it stylish? Chromium plated and bright scarlet.
0:27:07 > 0:27:13- How much do you think it is worth? - Things like this are now quite collectable, of the 1960s.
0:27:13 > 0:27:14- I think it will make £80-£100. - Do you?
0:27:14 > 0:27:19- Well, that's brilliant, because they paid £35 for it.- Sounds reasonable.
0:27:19 > 0:27:24Next is this walking stick made out of bits of vertebrae and whatnot.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28How do you rate that on the scale of good things and bad things,
0:27:28 > 0:27:30stick wise?
0:27:30 > 0:27:32You'd struggle to get any competitive bidding on it.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36OK, so translate that into money if you can.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38£40-£60.
0:27:38 > 0:27:41- But not £115 worth?- Sadly not.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45Well, I think the good Lord might be giving with one hand and taking away with the other.
0:27:45 > 0:27:52Their third item is this pretty wacky combo inkwell alarm clock job
0:27:52 > 0:27:55which has its appeal, but is made of the wrong material, isn't it?
0:27:55 > 0:27:58It's trying to make us think it's ormolu or gilded bronze.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01In fact, it's an alloy known as spelter
0:28:01 > 0:28:05which has been surface coated with a sort of bronzing paint.
0:28:05 > 0:28:09It probably looked a good deal better when it was new in about 1910
0:28:09 > 0:28:12than it does today.
0:28:12 > 0:28:13Yes. How much?
0:28:13 > 0:28:19- £40-£60.- £35 paid. It's magic, isn't it? I mean, spot-on.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21What a team, led by Mr Hanson.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23They are hardly likely to need their bonus buy,
0:28:23 > 0:28:25but let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30Now, Thelma and Louise, I mean Charlotte and Louise,
0:28:30 > 0:28:35- you gave Charles Hanson £115, which is a mammoth wallop.- Yes.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38El Matador here has bought you something.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41- OK, Charles, show us all. - Here it comes.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Charles! Thank you.
0:28:43 > 0:28:47- Wow!- OK, have a feel of it.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49What is it?
0:28:49 > 0:28:51It's what I would call a late Victorian
0:28:51 > 0:28:54specimen wood swagger stick or baton.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57- What's it worth?- 30, 40?
0:28:57 > 0:28:59I wouldn't know what it was.
0:28:59 > 0:29:03- Well, you're quite right. It cost me £40.- OK.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06- So the cost is 40. - Feeling a little bit better.
0:29:06 > 0:29:10- Feeling better now?- A little bit. - She's warming up, this girl.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13It's all down to price with Louise. Be confident, be brave.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15- Absolutely. - That's the way, Charlotte.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18You don't have to pick it now. You can decide later.
0:29:18 > 0:29:24But for the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles' little stick.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27- There you go, Nigel. What do you make of that?- Interesting, isn't it?
0:29:27 > 0:29:31It's a pointing stick made of all manner of different specimen timbers
0:29:31 > 0:29:34including ebony, olive wood, rosewood,
0:29:34 > 0:29:37and several others which I can't immediately name.
0:29:37 > 0:29:42Fascinating, but no doubt woods which have come from the four quarters of the globe.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45- Yeah, interesting. What's it worth?- £40, £50.
0:29:45 > 0:29:49Great. Charles paid £40 for it as a bonus buy.
0:29:49 > 0:29:53And I fancy he'll make a small profit on it, too.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Now, that's it for the Reds.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58Cruising over to the Blues, Jack and Ash,
0:29:58 > 0:30:02first of all is the little campaign medal.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04The interesting thing with campaign medals
0:30:04 > 0:30:09is they have engraved around the edge the name of the recipient.
0:30:09 > 0:30:15And if this had been awarded to a member of a regiment of the British Army,
0:30:15 > 0:30:19it would have been worth perhaps three times as much as it is.
0:30:19 > 0:30:25- Because it's awarded to a member of the Indian Army...- Ah.
0:30:25 > 0:30:30..and, of course, because the actions were taking place in India, such medals are a lot more common
0:30:30 > 0:30:33- when awarded to native recipients. - Right.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36- OK, what's it worth, do you think? - £80-120.
0:30:36 > 0:30:38Brilliant, £85 they paid.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43Anyway, your next challenge is to parse this lampshade.
0:30:43 > 0:30:47Is it 1930s, or is it Laura Ashley 1970s?
0:30:47 > 0:30:53- I'm inclined to think it's probably 1970s, it certainly isn't as early as the '30s.- Hm. How much?
0:30:53 > 0:30:57- I think pretty well whatever we can get for it.- Make a tenner, do you think?- Yeah.
0:30:57 > 0:31:04Yeah. They paid £25. Their last item, which has more legs than most, is this stool,
0:31:04 > 0:31:06a tribal stool.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Difficult things to value, these, aren't they?
0:31:08 > 0:31:14They are. If you're lucky enough to find an example that you know dates from the 19th century,
0:31:14 > 0:31:21or certainly before contact with Western civilisations, the sky is the limit.
0:31:21 > 0:31:22But, of course, most,
0:31:22 > 0:31:26the majority of these items that turn up today are trade goods.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29- What do you think it might bring? - £20-40.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33They paid £90 for it. I think they've gone slightly over the top.
0:31:33 > 0:31:38But we shall see. So they seem to be OK with the medal, they've got a dodgy issue
0:31:38 > 0:31:41with that stool and they aren't going to make much from the shade,
0:31:41 > 0:31:43therefore, they will need their bonus buy.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45Let's have a look at it.
0:31:46 > 0:31:51Jack and Ash, you spent £200. You gave David £100 of leftover lolly, what did he spend it on?
0:31:51 > 0:31:54OK, boys, are we ready?
0:31:54 > 0:31:58- Right up your street, I think. - Wow, that's really good. - I like it now.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01- You're liking it?- I'm liking that.
0:32:01 > 0:32:06- Is it the box or the spoons you like? - I was unsure when I saw a box. - I was like, "What's in there?"
0:32:06 > 0:32:08A box. That's it.
0:32:08 > 0:32:13Lovely fitted box, solid silver spoons, coffee spoons probably,
0:32:13 > 0:32:15in the Arts and Crafts style.
0:32:15 > 0:32:19- You really like them, Jack? - I wouldn't buy them, but I do think...- Maybe your granny.- Yes.
0:32:19 > 0:32:21Do like them, Ash?
0:32:21 > 0:32:27- Yeah, I really like them. I think they'll go for quite a bit. How much did you pay?- 20 quid.
0:32:27 > 0:32:32- 20 quid.- That's good. - In the box, ready to go, £20. - Come on.
0:32:32 > 0:32:38- You're their hero, Dave. - Not yet!- Look at that! I can feel a group hug coming on.
0:32:38 > 0:32:42Anyway. Let it be a victory hug, maybe.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45Anyway, you decide later, boys, but for the audience at home,
0:32:45 > 0:32:49let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Dave's spoons.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53- So, Nigel, there's something special for you.- Isn't it just?- Yeah.
0:32:53 > 0:32:57A set of Edwardian silver coffee spoons, known as the seal-top pattern.
0:32:57 > 0:33:02- And somebody's wedding present, no doubt, in about 1902. - Never got opened.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05- Never got opened. - Never got used.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08They are therefore in pristine condition, complete in their original cases.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11- What are they worth? - About £20-25.
0:33:11 > 0:33:15Brilliant. David Harper only paid £20. There may be a small profit.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18That's absolutely marvellous. Thank you very much, Nigel,
0:33:18 > 0:33:21for enlightening us in so many areas.
0:33:21 > 0:33:24- Are you going to be taking the sale? - I am.- Ah, that's a treat.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31What sort of a coincidence is this?
0:33:31 > 0:33:33We've just been in Sheffield Millennium Galleries
0:33:33 > 0:33:38looking at old Sheffield plate and what have I discovered in a sale in Nottinghamshire,
0:33:38 > 0:33:43but a pair of old Sheffield plate chamber candlesticks?
0:33:43 > 0:33:45What's a chamber candlestick?
0:33:45 > 0:33:48You've got no electricity in your house
0:33:48 > 0:33:51and you want to light your way to your chamber.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55So downstairs you'd have a candlestick like this.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58Extremely convenient to carry around.
0:33:58 > 0:34:03And, when you get upstairs, and you want to put the candle out when you are settled beside your bed,
0:34:03 > 0:34:07you take that snuffer and ram it on top of the candle.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11That extinguishes the candle and you can have a nice doze.
0:34:11 > 0:34:15The next time you want to use the candle,
0:34:15 > 0:34:18it's going to have an untidy mess of wick on the top,
0:34:18 > 0:34:21because you squashed it with this snuffer.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23You need to straighten it out
0:34:23 > 0:34:28and, to do that, you need to use a pair of trimmers, like this.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32If you look carefully at these fellows, that's got a sharp point up there.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36That would help you tease out the remnants of the wick.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40When that wick gets too long, it guts.
0:34:40 > 0:34:45It makes a nasty smell, little bits come off, it doesn't burn cleanly.
0:34:45 > 0:34:50Then you open up this scissor action and that reveals a little plate there.
0:34:50 > 0:34:55You approach the top of the candle like that and close the scissor bit like that
0:34:55 > 0:34:59and it has the effect of trimming the wick on the candle.
0:34:59 > 0:35:03Now, most chamber candlesticks you find like this
0:35:03 > 0:35:07are either missing the snuffers - that bit -
0:35:07 > 0:35:10or they're missing the trimmers,
0:35:10 > 0:35:14which fit so neatly into the base like that.
0:35:14 > 0:35:20Imagine my thrill finding not only that one complete in the sale,
0:35:20 > 0:35:23but also this one. What are the odds of finding
0:35:23 > 0:35:28a pair of old Sheffield-plated candlesticks with all their bits?
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Very, very long odds, I have to tell you.
0:35:31 > 0:35:39And, even better, if you look at this trimmer, you can see a mark. That mark says "Gilbert".
0:35:39 > 0:35:45And Gilbert was a Sheffield plater recorded in the bible
0:35:45 > 0:35:49of Sheffield platers as working in the city in 1804.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52So you can precisely date these things,
0:35:52 > 0:35:54which is absolutely fascinating.
0:35:54 > 0:36:00What are they worth? Tickled up, cleaned, nicely presented, £200-300 at least.
0:36:00 > 0:36:06What's the estimate? In the auction, here, today, £70-90.
0:36:06 > 0:36:07Strike a light, heh?
0:36:15 > 0:36:20- Charlotte and Louise, how are you feeling, chickens?- OK.- Fine. - Not at all tense?
0:36:20 > 0:36:24- No tension there?- No.- No. - Completely cool.- Yes.- And relaxed.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Are you worried about anything in particular, Louise?
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Any item you're concerned about?
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Maybe the heater. I'm sorry to say.
0:36:33 > 0:36:37- Maybe the heater.- It's so stylish. - Where are you, Charlotte, with this?
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- Um...- Any concerns?- Half and half on the heater.- The heater.
0:36:40 > 0:36:45- Strangely enough it's the first lot up.- Here we go.- Here it comes.
0:36:45 > 0:36:49Lot 163, £30 for it.
0:36:49 > 0:36:511960s vintage. £20.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55Is there a bid? £20.
0:36:55 > 0:36:5620 I am bid.

0:36:57 > 0:37:0130, 5? No, at £30.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04- All done at £30 only.- Oh.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Close. £30 is minus five.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11Lot 164, £20.
0:37:11 > 0:37:1220, 10?
0:37:12 > 0:37:14£10.

0:37:19 > 0:37:2530? No. £25. At the back of the room, all done at 25.
0:37:25 > 0:37:30This is not so good. £25. That's 75, 85. That's minus 90.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33Lot 165, £20 for this.
0:37:33 > 0:37:3620. 20 it is. At 20, 5, 30,
0:37:36 > 0:37:3835 anywhere? 35. 40.
0:37:38 > 0:37:4240, 45, 45 and 50.

0:37:44 > 0:37:48£50, then, at the back of the room. Selling at 50.
0:37:48 > 0:37:53£50. Good girl. That's plus 15. Are you pleased about that?
0:37:53 > 0:37:56- I am.- You ought to be. Overall though, you're minus 80.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58£80 down the toilet.
0:37:58 > 0:38:03- You are going to go with the swagger, or not? Risk another 40? - (ALL) Yes.
0:38:05 > 0:38:09They're going to do it. Here it comes. Here comes the swag.
0:38:09 > 0:38:13Lot 170, £20 for this. Nicely made.
0:38:13 > 0:38:20£20? £10. A bid at 10. I'm bid £10 only. 15 for it?
0:38:20 > 0:38:2315 for it. At £10. All done?
0:38:23 > 0:38:28- Uh-oh.- Just put us further into debt!- £10. Minus 30.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30That is minus 110.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32I can't believe that, Tim.
0:38:32 > 0:38:37Well, it just happened, Charles. It just happened, mate.
0:38:37 > 0:38:41All right? This could be a winning score, I have to tell you.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43- No trouble at all. - It could be(!)
0:38:49 > 0:38:55Next up are those nice Sheffield-plated chamber sticks. The estimate is £70 to £90.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59A pair of them with the snuffers, all genuine and ready to go and here they come.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Lot 185, bidding here of £30.
0:39:02 > 0:39:0630 I am bid. And five. 40 anybody? 40.
0:39:06 > 0:39:0945. 50, 55, 60, 65.
0:39:09 > 0:39:15£60 it is and five. 70, 75. 75, £80.
0:39:15 > 0:39:1885. At 85 now. 90?
0:39:18 > 0:39:22£85. All done at £85.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26There we go. £85. That is cheap enough.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34OK, Jack and Ash, do you know how the Reds got on?
0:39:34 > 0:39:36- No.- No idea.- That's good. Don't want you to.
0:39:36 > 0:39:41First up, is Ash's medal and here it comes.
0:39:41 > 0:39:46Lot 186. Campaign medal.
0:39:46 > 0:39:51And £40 for this, the medal. 40. 40 I am bid. At £40.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53And five for it. 45.
0:39:53 > 0:39:5850, 55, 60, 65. 65.
0:39:58 > 0:40:0370. £65. Any more? And selling at £65.
0:40:03 > 0:40:0865, bad luck. You're minus 20 on that. I don't believe it.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11Lot 187. There it is.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13£20 for this lot.
0:40:13 > 0:40:1720, £10. Any bid? £5.
0:40:17 > 0:40:19Five I am bid. 10, 15.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23- Come on.- 15, 20. £15.
0:40:23 > 0:40:27£15. You're minus £10 on that. This is fast and furious.
0:40:27 > 0:40:30- Here comes the Nigerian stool. - Uh-oh!
0:40:30 > 0:40:34- This could be make or...- It could be bids coming in internationally here(!)
0:40:34 > 0:40:38Lot 188. £20 for it.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40A lot of work in this. £20? £10.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Oh, my...
0:40:42 > 0:40:4510 I'm bid. 15 do I see? At £10. All done.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48First and last bid. It sells.
0:40:48 > 0:40:51- No!- £10. That's minus 80.
0:40:51 > 0:40:57- It all looked pretty earlier on. Minus 110.- Sorry, guys.
0:40:57 > 0:41:01- Minus 110. So what are we going to do about these spoons?- Just go.
0:41:01 > 0:41:02It can only stir up more trouble!
0:41:02 > 0:41:06- LAUGHTER - OK, fine, we're going with the spoons definitely, yes?
0:41:06 > 0:41:10- (BOTH) Yes. - 'Both teams are minus £110.'
0:41:10 > 0:41:12'It's all down to the spoons.'
0:41:12 > 0:41:1720, 10. 10 I'm bid. 15, 20.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21- £15.- Come on!- No!- £15.- No, no!
0:41:21 > 0:41:26That's it. I'm afraid the tragedy continues. £15 minus £5.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29- I think we may have lost!- Minus 115.
0:41:29 > 0:41:33Well, the thing is, Jack, you just never know.
0:41:33 > 0:41:37This could be a winning score. I know it's disappointing, minus 115.
0:41:37 > 0:41:41It's all on David's face. That is a disappointment.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43- It's pretty horrendous, isn't it? - It is.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47Sometimes, it's a bloodbath out there in the street and the gutters are just aflow.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51Today, I'm afraid, it's one of those days, but it could be a winning score
0:41:51 > 0:41:56- and all will be revealed in a moment.- Right.- Well done!
0:42:00 > 0:42:05So I do hope you haven't been comparing any notes as to the profit you're taking home today.
0:42:05 > 0:42:11- No.- Good, because if you've been talking about profits, you'd have been telling a bit of a fib.
0:42:11 > 0:42:17Because both teams made substantial losses and there is only a £5 note between you.
0:42:17 > 0:42:19- (ALL) Oh, no! - This is killing me.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22So it's seriously close as to who is going to be the victor today.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25The runners-up, because we don't have losers any more,
0:42:25 > 0:42:26are the Blues.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30CHEERING AND SHRIEKING
0:42:30 > 0:42:33- LAUGHTER - I mean, that is a shriek of joy, isn't it?
0:42:33 > 0:42:39- Well done.- I'm not going to dwell on this. It's simply minus 115.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42Yes? Which is no money at all, when you think about it,
0:42:42 > 0:42:47but, unfortunately, all the scores are minus, minus, minus. I'm not going to rub it in.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50Good luck with everything, you've been a great team.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52- But the victors are the Reds. - CHEERING
0:42:52 > 0:42:54Very, very pleased.
0:42:54 > 0:42:59Your final score is minus 110 and you're the victors and deserve all the spoils of victory.
0:42:59 > 0:43:02You got Charles Hanson, after all.
0:43:02 > 0:43:05- Anyway, join us soon for some more bargain hunting. Yes?- (ALL) Yes!
