0:00:02 > 0:00:07You know what they say, small man big car. Today we've got big house!

0:00:07 > 0:00:10Big expectations! Big budget!

0:00:10 > 0:00:13Let's go big Bargain Hunting!

0:00:36 > 0:00:41Hello and welcome to the gorgeous grounds at Kedleston Hall, in Derbyshire.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44We're at the Jaguar antiques fair and have decided to spice up

0:00:44 > 0:00:49the proceedings by giving each team £600 to spend today.

0:00:49 > 0:00:53So with these heightened expectations, let's have a

0:00:53 > 0:00:55gander at what's coming up.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Reds - Stephen and his dad Stuart are playing it for laughs.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02That sounds good to me.

0:01:02 > 0:01:06While mates Alison and Alison resort to bribery.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09My only question, madam, is, how do you take it?

0:01:09 > 0:01:13There are plenty of surprises at the auction.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15I knew it.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Hi, everybody.- ALL: Hi, Tim.

0:01:20 > 0:01:24Now, we don't want any family arguments from you, is that going to happen?

0:01:24 > 0:01:28- We'll try not to argue. - Have you two got a game plan?

0:01:28 > 0:01:32Yeah, I think we have, Tim. We are going to go for something quirky.

0:01:32 > 0:01:36- Quirky?- Not normal, try and move off the normal.- Something peculiar?

0:01:36 > 0:01:41- Yes, I think so.- Lovely. Well, you've got £600 so you can be really peculiar,

0:01:41 > 0:01:46- because you're used to taking risks, aren't you, Stuart? - I am, yes, I'm a driving instructor.

0:01:46 > 0:01:51Dear, oh dear. What's your favourite pupil - do you like taking the ladies or the gents?

0:01:51 > 0:01:55- I have to say it's the ladies that make the better drivers.- Really?- Yes.

0:01:55 > 0:02:00Good Lord. There we are, that could be controversial with your dad. He's snorting there.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03- So, Stephen, you take a back seat to this, do you?- I do now.

0:02:03 > 0:02:09- I took an early retirement package. - So what do you collect between you?

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Well, I collect stamps, I know it's boring but I have been

0:02:12 > 0:02:17collecting them since, British stamps, since the '70s.

0:02:17 > 0:02:20- Did you infect the boy with the collecting?- No.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- What got to me was the Star Wars memorabilia.- Have you got your wand?

0:02:24 > 0:02:27- No.- You haven't? - It's a light sabre, Tim.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31- So, Stu, what is that the thing you're hanging on to?- This is Rory.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33He is our pub quiz team mascot.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37Wherever somebody goes who has something interesting to do,

0:02:37 > 0:02:38- he comes along with us.- Yeah.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42I'm glad you've got your strategy and I wish you very good luck on our double up day.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Now for the Alisons.

0:02:44 > 0:02:48- You're into Girl Power. - We certainly are.- Yeah?

0:02:48 > 0:02:51We are both members of the Girl Guiding Association,

0:02:51 > 0:02:56and we run a Rainbow and Brownie pack together in Staffordshire.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Is that what these fellows here are? - It certainly is.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03- It is 100 years of girl-guiding so it is a very special year for us. - Yes.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06We wanted to come and show that girls are the best.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08Girls are the best - I don't have any doubt about that.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10I've never had a problem about that.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13- And you are a police community support officer?- I am, yes.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16I've been doing that for five years now.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19- Are you on the beat, do you walk the streets a lot?- Yes.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23- So anything can happen? - Anything, no two days are the same.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26- You also have a passion for antiques.- Yes.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28My dad got me into that years ago.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32He got me going to antique fairs and things.

0:03:32 > 0:03:36- I just collected bits along the way and it's grown since then.- OK.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41- What about you, Allie the red? - I'm really into it, obviously owls.

0:03:41 > 0:03:47- Owls?- Oh yes.- Why obviously? - Because I'm a Brown Owl.- I see. - This is a Snowy Owl,

0:03:47 > 0:03:49so we collect owls as well.

0:03:49 > 0:03:51- You are not obsessed at all? - Erm, just slightly!

0:03:51 > 0:03:55- "Just slightly".- And I also collect frogs.- What is special about frogs?

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- They are quite pretty.- Yes.

0:03:58 > 0:04:00They're very different and they hop around my garden.

0:04:00 > 0:04:04- You don't mind the slimy bit? - I do try not to touch them.

0:04:04 > 0:04:09- I just look at them. - And run them over with a lawnmower.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13Run them over! You've been known to?

0:04:13 > 0:04:17Just the once quite recently.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- I only chopped off, one leg!- Oh!

0:04:20 > 0:04:25- Dear.- He was OK, he looked at me and then he hopped off.

0:04:25 > 0:04:26Maybe he was hopping mad!

0:04:28 > 0:04:31You would be, if you'd lost your back legs in the mower.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Now, the money moment! Here we go, look!

0:04:34 > 0:04:36You know the rules, your experts await and off you go.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39Very very good luck.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42Yes, you can't beat a fricassee of frogs' legs.

0:04:42 > 0:04:47And two of our experts who always have a spring in their step are...

0:04:47 > 0:04:51saucy Anita Manning for the Reds.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54And man's best friend Nick Hall for the Blues.

0:04:54 > 0:05:01OK, guys, today we have 600 smackaroos.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04We can think big, spend big and hopefully win big.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07And we want to spend as much of it as we can.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09What are we looking for? What interests you?

0:05:09 > 0:05:12Probably look for some jewellery.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14Maybe a bit of glass.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17- Let's go for it.- OK, let's go!

0:05:17 > 0:05:19We've also got Rory to help us as well.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22The good news for you is that the things from your childhood

0:05:22 > 0:05:24aren't old enough yet.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28- Look, there's a pal for Rory. - A distant relative.

0:05:32 > 0:05:37That's a nice clean box, guys, have a wee look and tell me what you think.

0:05:37 > 0:05:41It is in good condition.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- I like that, the hallmarks give you an idea of a date.- Yeah.

0:05:46 > 0:05:50We have a little lion here which tells us it is silver.

0:05:50 > 0:05:54We have a Birmingham hallmark there

0:05:54 > 0:05:59and we have the initials of CH - for hopefully Charles Horner.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02Charles Horner is a very prestigious silversmith.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05We associate him most with little enamelled jewellery,

0:06:05 > 0:06:09hatpins and these little thimbles.

0:06:12 > 0:06:18- Although we have CH here, there are other makers with that mark.- OK.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22- But it's a lovely clean little box. - It's lovely. Do you like it? - Yes, I do.- What about...?

0:06:22 > 0:06:24What do you think?

0:06:24 > 0:06:28Yeah, he says go for it.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32Quite a hefty price there at 195.

0:06:32 > 0:06:38What we might be able to do, if we pick two items,

0:06:38 > 0:06:40we might be able to get a good deal.

0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Yeah.- Tactics, what do you think? I'll go for that.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45It might work, it might not!

0:06:45 > 0:06:47The Red Team have got a cunning plan.

0:06:47 > 0:06:52But the Blues are having trouble getting started.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54It is not a bad thing, it is just not old enough.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57He's got his nose put out of joint, I know how he feels.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00I think, sadly, he is beyond repair.

0:07:01 > 0:07:07Let's look at some diamonds, we have plenty of dosh to spend here.

0:07:07 > 0:07:14The thing about diamond rings is that people like classic settings.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18They like solitaires and they like this, which is two diamonds in a twist.

0:07:18 > 0:07:23I think that is a particularly nice setting.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27If we could just ask the trader what is the caratage?

0:07:27 > 0:07:33Each diamond is about 0.4, at least 0.4.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35At least 0.4?

0:07:35 > 0:07:38Yeah. So it is at least 0.8 together.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41So we've nearly got a carat of diamonds there. Shall I try it on?

0:07:41 > 0:07:43LAUGHTER

0:07:43 > 0:07:48- Try it on.- Better on you than me. - Yeah. Let's see.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52- Yes.- What do you think?

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Just the job, probably a little bit too expensive for us.

0:07:55 > 0:08:01- What sort of price is this? - 480.- 480?

0:08:02 > 0:08:06It's 18 carat white gold.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09People like a white gold setting or a platinum setting.

0:08:11 > 0:08:15It's 480, it's a lot of money,

0:08:15 > 0:08:21but a good - a carat of diamonds, is just about £1,000.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24- That is a good point for it. - You've got a lot of diamond there.

0:08:24 > 0:08:30- I'd like to get it cheaper than that.- I think you should.

0:08:30 > 0:08:35- I wonder if we bought both of those, would that...?- Yes, certainly.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39We can make you an offer on it? Because these are two good items.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43- Yeah.- You're thinking more like 500 for the two or something like that?

0:08:43 > 0:08:47- Yeah.- Would you do two for 500?

0:08:47 > 0:08:52- I can't do 500, the very lowest I can do is 525.- 525?

0:08:52 > 0:08:55- Yeah.- Could you do 510?

0:08:55 > 0:08:58515, I'd do 515.

0:08:59 > 0:09:02That sounds good to me.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06BOTH: 400 for the ring and 115 for the box.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Yeah, that sounds good.

0:09:09 > 0:09:13- Boys, tell me what you think? - Yes. I like that.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Do you want to try the ring? Try the ring on!

0:09:16 > 0:09:19LAUGHTER

0:09:19 > 0:09:22Looks lovely, Stuart.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26- There we are.- Put it on Rory. - It fits perfectly!

0:09:27 > 0:09:29The boys are roaring into the lead.

0:09:29 > 0:09:33What are the girls looking at though?

0:09:33 > 0:09:37We saw something unusual and rare, tell me what you think.

0:09:40 > 0:09:45- Now, sit yourself on there and just tell me what you think about this bench.- Sit on it?

0:09:45 > 0:09:49- Yeah.- Is it safe to sit on? - Yeah, of course it is.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53- There's no worms or anything? - There is no worms. Do you like that?

0:09:53 > 0:09:57- Erm.- It is rustic. It's quirky.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00- Do you know what it is?- No?

0:10:00 > 0:10:07- It's what we call a pig bench. It's used for slaughtering pigs on.- No!

0:10:07 > 0:10:11'No, Nick, no! They're animal lovers!'

0:10:11 > 0:10:17- Oh no.- This is rustic social history something like this.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20You can see the handles you carry it with on either end,

0:10:20 > 0:10:25you can see where all the chop marks have been over the years.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28- Do you like that?- No. - Am I winning you over yet?- No.

0:10:29 > 0:10:33- I wonder how the other team are getting on?- Not as well as us.

0:10:33 > 0:10:36LAUGHTER

0:10:36 > 0:10:41- Think of it - what they were wanting for the two items was...- 675.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43And we got them for 515.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46That's it, give yourselves a pat on the back.

0:10:46 > 0:10:50- Come on, Nick, find something they like.- This caught my eye.

0:10:50 > 0:10:55There is a this fantastic lighting and wonderful Deco

0:10:55 > 0:10:58appeal in here, I think this might be worth a good rummage.

0:10:58 > 0:11:03- We've got 85 left now. - I think we need to get something mad.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Let's get something mad!

0:11:05 > 0:11:09What about that light up there? It's like Saturn or something.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Come on, girls, focus.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14Wave!

0:11:14 > 0:11:16LAUGHTER

0:11:21 > 0:11:25What do you think? do you like that? It's a classic art nouveau shape, it's solid silver.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28This is how you verify silver,

0:11:28 > 0:11:32you have the lion for English standard hallmarked silver.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35You've the little anchor in the corner which tells us it is

0:11:35 > 0:11:37made in Birmingham. Yeah, it is Birmingham.

0:11:37 > 0:11:42Then the date letter which is important because they reproduce a lot of this Art Nouveau silverware.

0:11:42 > 0:11:47But that tells us it was made in the Edwardian era, 1905-08.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49- That sort of area.- What's this?

0:11:49 > 0:11:53- This is all original.- I know but it's faded.- That doesn't matter.

0:11:53 > 0:12:00That just adds to the prestige and antiquity of it, that's not a bad thing.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04But a little bit of damage in the corner, but you can forgive that, it is such a beautiful thing.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08- Do we know how much it is, have you asked the lady?- No.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12- Excuse me, how much is it please? - The silver frame? 250?

0:12:12 > 0:12:16- 250? I don't think that's too bad. - Do you think there's a profit in that?

0:12:16 > 0:12:18I would certainly hope so,

0:12:18 > 0:12:23I would expect it to make at auction around the 250 mark so...

0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Would something around 200 be acceptable?- I could do two.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32- Just two.- That would be the death? - Yes.

0:12:32 > 0:12:37- I don't think that's a bad buy, do you like it?- I do like it. - Do you like it enough to buy it?

0:12:37 > 0:12:39I like the fact it is blue.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42You're the expert, if you think, we will go with that.

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- I'm happy with the price, if you're happy with the object?- You're happy?

0:12:45 > 0:12:49- Yes, I like it. - 'Time is ticking away, girls.'

0:12:49 > 0:12:54- Are we edging towards a decision? - It was never going to be easy.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56- Quite right.- Yes.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59- Yeah, we will have that. - Will we give this nice lady £200?

0:12:59 > 0:13:02- We certainly are.- Brilliant stuff. - thank you very much.- That's terrific.

0:13:02 > 0:13:04Hooray!

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Formula One racing driver.

0:13:07 > 0:13:12If it'd been signed by David Coulthard it wouldn't half be worth some money.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15The Reds are in pole position but the blues haven't moved an inch.

0:13:15 > 0:13:20- Nothing else has captured your eye in here?- Well, yes!

0:13:20 > 0:13:24- What something on here? - Do you put tea in it?- The caddy?

0:13:24 > 0:13:30- You like this as well.- Right.- It is a fabulous object.- It's heavy.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33- This is polished pewter of course. - Look at that.

0:13:33 > 0:13:38- That's been hammered, hasn't it? - Yes, this is proper handicraft.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40It's the sort of thing that visually will sell well.

0:13:40 > 0:13:45Arts and Crafts, Art Nouveau, we just touched on with the frame, is so in vogue at the minute.

0:13:45 > 0:13:49Sometimes you can attribute these designs to specific schools,

0:13:49 > 0:13:53guilds, designers, Birmingham is one that springs to mind.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57It's a beautiful thing, this isn't silver though. It is pewter.

0:13:57 > 0:14:01Solid pewter. Highly polished to give that silver sheen and effect.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05- This is a fantastic thing. - That's beautiful.- Do you know what that is?- No.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08This is actually glazed ceramic.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10- Right.- That's a piece of pottery under there.

0:14:10 > 0:14:14Almost certainly that would be made at the Ruskin factory.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17- I think that's beautiful. - Can I have a...?

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Wow! It's really heavy.

0:14:19 > 0:14:24- It is surprisingly heavy. - That is so tactile. How much is it?

0:14:24 > 0:14:28I had 220 in mind for it but because you have bought,

0:14:28 > 0:14:31I will do you 180. 180.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34I don't think that is a bad price at all.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38- You like this, don't you?- Do you think there is some profit in that?

0:14:38 > 0:14:44- There should be. It is a super object. I'll be disappointed if there isn't.- I love it.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48And I love it as well. Again, it has got the blue, it has everything.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51- There's a colour theme going on, girls. Decision made?- Yes.

0:14:51 > 0:14:55- You've got a deal. Thank you very very much.- Thank you.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57At last, the girls are catching up,

0:14:57 > 0:15:00but they're not the only ones to find a little gem.

0:15:00 > 0:15:04Are you a Satanist? Are you a Goth?

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Are you a Christian?

0:15:06 > 0:15:10Anglican, Catholic, it doesn't matter what your denomination is,

0:15:10 > 0:15:13you're going to fall in love with this object

0:15:13 > 0:15:17which I found on a stall. Look at the workmanship.

0:15:17 > 0:15:23This is a silver piece that's been pierced in this cruciform form,

0:15:23 > 0:15:26complete with hanging pendant so you could suspend it

0:15:26 > 0:15:31from a chatelaine or, more likely, a chain around your neck.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34It's identical on each side.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36If you look down the sides,

0:15:36 > 0:15:40it's been engraved with a continuous trail of foliage,

0:15:40 > 0:15:43and it's quite weighty.

0:15:43 > 0:15:47All in all, it's a beautifully made little box.

0:15:48 > 0:15:50Before I open it up, if you said to me,

0:15:50 > 0:15:53"What does it look as if it contains?"

0:15:53 > 0:15:56I would say, perhaps a relic.

0:15:56 > 0:15:57but if I open this thing up,

0:15:57 > 0:16:00look what we've got inside.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03We've got a little watch.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09This is a Swiss watch movement which has been fitted into

0:16:09 > 0:16:11the interior of the crucifix.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13An exquisite white dial

0:16:13 > 0:16:18with Arabic and Roman numerals in perfect condition

0:16:18 > 0:16:23and underneath it, on the plate, appropriately engraved

0:16:23 > 0:16:26is a scene showing Adam and Eve

0:16:26 > 0:16:30either side of the forbidden fruit tree

0:16:30 > 0:16:34with a serpent coiled up against it.

0:16:34 > 0:16:38You can imagine the thrill that a padre would have

0:16:38 > 0:16:41wearing a little cruciform watch case like this,

0:16:41 > 0:16:45opening it up and checking whether it's time for Vespers.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48On the reverse, the identical reverse,

0:16:48 > 0:16:52I'll open that up, you've got a plain plate with two holes.

0:16:52 > 0:16:56One hole is for winding the watch movement

0:16:56 > 0:16:59and the other is for adjusting the hands.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02All in all, this is a perfect little piece.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05It has no marks.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08There's no indication of the country of origin

0:17:08 > 0:17:10but I would guess France or Italy.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14No indication of the period

0:17:14 > 0:17:19but the period of the watch is around 1840 to 1880.

0:17:19 > 0:17:23What's an exquisite little thing like this worth?

0:17:23 > 0:17:27Well, it's priced up at £420.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30God bless!

0:17:30 > 0:17:33And let's say a prayer for the teams

0:17:33 > 0:17:35who've still got one more item to find.

0:17:35 > 0:17:39- How much is your Mamod?- £100.

0:17:39 > 0:17:43- £100?- Yes. Negotiable.

0:17:43 > 0:17:47- That's what I like to hear! - THEY LAUGH

0:17:47 > 0:17:50- Can we've a wee look at it? - Yes. There's the wagon as well at the side there.

0:17:50 > 0:17:54- Stuart, you had one of these.- I had one of these.- You had one of those?

0:17:54 > 0:17:58- In good condition. - It was the fuel pellets you had to have.- Show me how you worked it.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01- Did you play with it as a child? - Yes, I did.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04What you used to do

0:18:04 > 0:18:09is you pull this out and you put your fuel pellets in there.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11Light it, put it back in...

0:18:11 > 0:18:15- But that's an old...- This is an older one than the one I had, isn't it?

0:18:15 > 0:18:18You put some water in there and you could pull this down

0:18:18 > 0:18:20and it would make sounds and steam and everything.

0:18:20 > 0:18:25- So this is bringing back happy memories.- That's bringing back a lot of happy memories.

0:18:25 > 0:18:28- This is an older one than yours. - Yes, an older one than mine.

0:18:28 > 0:18:31- This, the wagon is to go with it. - Yes, yeah.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35- All in original boxes. - Brilliant.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38What sort of date with this one be?

0:18:38 > 0:18:43Around about '50s, going into '60s, yeah.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46- It's a boy's toy. - Definitely a boy's toy.

0:18:46 > 0:18:50- Definitely a boy's toy, this is. - Right, right.

0:18:50 > 0:18:51- Do you like it?- I do.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- You've fallen in love with that. - I have, yes, I have.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57We got 85 and we got to leave you with some so...

0:18:58 > 0:19:04- Could you do it for 50?- Oh, no. - It's too far.- Too far, yes.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07- I was going to say £80. I would do it for £80.- What does that leave me?

0:19:07 > 0:19:09- 70?- A fiver.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- A fiver.- Could you do it for 70 and then she's got 15?

0:19:12 > 0:19:15- £75, that's it.- 75.- Yeah!

0:19:15 > 0:19:18You reckon it would be...

0:19:18 > 0:19:20Yeah, I'll just go and buy another diamond ring for a tenner.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23I do love your confidence, Anita.

0:19:23 > 0:19:27And the blue team have taken their foot off the gas too.

0:19:27 > 0:19:32We've still got a fair chunk of our budget left so there's no panic now.

0:19:32 > 0:19:37And of course we've always got that fantastic pig table we can go back to.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40I've not given up on that yet.

0:19:40 > 0:19:43Half an hour, three items, we've spent all our money.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46ALL: # We are the champions! #

0:19:47 > 0:19:51Now, this is interesting because, again, there's a real theme here.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55You've got quite a collection of art nouveau period jewellery here.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58All circa 1900 and those great, sort of,

0:19:58 > 0:20:00art nouveau flowing lines and motifs.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04- There's a pearl drop there. - Oh, that little pendant.

0:20:04 > 0:20:06That's pretty, isn't it?

0:20:06 > 0:20:10What sort of money are we looking for on the pendant?

0:20:10 > 0:20:12- The art nouveau one?- Yes.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15Well, I've got 85 on it but I'll do it for 60.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18That's not a bad price really. How do you feel about that?

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Is it possible we could have a look at it please?

0:20:20 > 0:20:22- There you go. - Shall we have a closer...

0:20:22 > 0:20:26Let's get one of these little magic gadgets out that tells all.

0:20:26 > 0:20:28Just flip it over onto there.

0:20:28 > 0:20:33So, what we need to find is some marks to indicate that it's gold.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35If you're ever so lucky,

0:20:35 > 0:20:38you can sometimes get a little maker's mark on there as well.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40Can't see a mark.

0:20:41 > 0:20:44Um... Well, I suggest it IS going to be gold.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48They're more often nine or 15 carat for this period.

0:20:48 > 0:20:52It's not stamped but it's not a major issue really.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54This would date to about 1900.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57It's right slap bang in the art nouveau period there.

0:20:57 > 0:21:00It's very much in line with the other purchases you've made.

0:21:00 > 0:21:04- What are the little dots? - These are seed pearls.- Right.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Then you've got a blister pearl at the bottom there.

0:21:07 > 0:21:11There's a lovely red stone in there which will either be a garnet or a ruby.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15It's difficult to tell in this light but it'll be one or the other.

0:21:15 > 0:21:16It'll be a nice gemstone.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18How flexible would the price be?

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Because you're missing a stamp?

0:21:20 > 0:21:24Because we're missing a stamp and it's our last item

0:21:24 > 0:21:27and we'll go and have a cup of tea and go home.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Providing you bring one back for me? 10, I'll take another 10 off.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33- So £50 and a cup of tea?- Yes. - That doesn't sound like a bad deal.

0:21:33 > 0:21:38- Can I have a feel?- Absolutely.- Do you think that would make a profit?

0:21:38 > 0:21:42That's got to be worth over £50. I'll be shocked if it wasn't.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43It's a nice thing.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45- What do we think?- It's a go-er.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48- I think we're there, do you?- Yes. - We're happy with that?- Yes.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51- We're going to give this lady £50 and a cup of tea?- Yes.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54- My only question, madame, is how do you take it?- No sugar.- No sugar. Great.

0:21:54 > 0:21:57That's it. Time's up.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01So, what are the teams taking to auction?

0:22:01 > 0:22:04The Reds reckon they've got an open and shut case

0:22:04 > 0:22:06with the silver box at £115.

0:22:10 > 0:22:15And the diamond ring certainly put a twinkle in Anita's eye at £400.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19And it's full steam ahead for the boys' toy tractor.

0:22:22 > 0:22:26They are magnificent, aren't they? This is a magnificent team.

0:22:26 > 0:22:27How much did you spend overall?

0:22:27 > 0:22:31£590!

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Yes, that's so cool, that £590.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37- You've done well, haven't you, Stephen?- We're very pleased.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39We did it in record time, half-an-hour.

0:22:39 > 0:22:43- Half-an-hour, I can't believe it. How was it for you, Stu?- Loved it.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46It brought back a lot of childhood memories

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- with one of the items we've bought, the steam train.- Good, good.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53So you spent the £590, which piece will bring the biggest profit do you think?

0:22:53 > 0:22:56Well, I'm hoping it's going to be the steam train.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58- Do you agree with that? - No, I think the diamond ring.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01- You think the diamond ring, do you? - Yes, it's nearly a carat.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04Yes that is a carrot, isn't it? A carat is a carrot!

0:23:04 > 0:23:07And, of course, some of these girls, they do know about diamonds.

0:23:07 > 0:23:10They are a girl's best friend.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12Anyway, Anita, £590 has gone down the drain,

0:23:12 > 0:23:15that means you've only got £10 of leftover lolly.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- Where is that, please? - I've got it here. - You've got it there, very good.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21You give it to me, I check it out, I give it to her, that's what the union says, right?

0:23:21 > 0:23:23We're all in with this together.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26Not a lot to spend, Anita, but it's in capable hands. Lovely.

0:23:26 > 0:23:30Why don't we check out what the blues bought, eh?

0:23:30 > 0:23:33The girls' enamelled frame is pretty,

0:23:33 > 0:23:35but not picture perfect.

0:23:37 > 0:23:41I think the arts and crafts tea caddy could be really hot stuff.

0:23:41 > 0:23:45But will the pendant be the jewel in their crown?

0:23:48 > 0:23:51So, what's this then, a tea party or something?

0:23:51 > 0:23:54No, this is part of the deal.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57- We swung the deal for £50 and a cuppa, wasn't it?- Yeah.

0:23:57 > 0:24:00- So you had a good time? - Fabulous.- Fantastic.

0:24:00 > 0:24:05- What's your favourite piece, Al? Alison!- I think the tea caddy.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07- Absolutely beautiful. - What about you, Alison?

0:24:07 > 0:24:10Yeah, that was definitely my favourite.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13It's heavy and it's clean and it's sparkly and it's great.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15Yes, a bit like Nick, clean and sparkly.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18- Nice of you to notice. - Solid and reliable.- Well riveted!

0:24:18 > 0:24:21- Well, I wouldn't know about that. - An antique, yeah(!)

0:24:21 > 0:24:26- Very good, how much did you spend all around?- We spent £430.- 430.

0:24:26 > 0:24:28I'd like £170 back, please.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30- SHE SIGHS - OK.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33- You don't really like passing that over like that, did you? - No, I didn't.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35No, I could tell that.

0:24:35 > 0:24:39- The girl guide in you was not guiding your hand towards mine.- No!

0:24:39 > 0:24:42- But my hand is inevitably drawn to yours, Nicholas.- Thank you, Tim.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45It's a nice little wodge, isn't it? You got your cup of tea, you've got your money.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48- I've got to go and deliver this. - You better go and do that.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50You go and have your cup of tea and warm up.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53Meanwhile, we're heading off to Cannon Hall in Barnsley

0:24:53 > 0:24:56where I hope it's going to be a little less parky than it is here.

0:24:59 > 0:25:03When Barnsley Council bought this place in the 1950s,

0:25:03 > 0:25:08it was an empty shell, so they went antiques hunting to fit it out.

0:25:08 > 0:25:11And what a brilliant job they've done!

0:25:11 > 0:25:16I mean, does this not look like the quintessential Georgian drawing room,

0:25:16 > 0:25:19all set out for afternoon tea?

0:25:19 > 0:25:22They've done phenomenally well,

0:25:22 > 0:25:26principally because they sourced the very best of furniture.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29But the furnishings also include delicious paintings,

0:25:29 > 0:25:33including a portrait by Constable.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37But the piece in this room for me is this little joker,

0:25:37 > 0:25:39partly because of its size -

0:25:39 > 0:25:44it's the sort of object that would fit very nicely in the back of my car,

0:25:44 > 0:25:46it comes in two parts -

0:25:46 > 0:25:51and also it would fit into a small flat for modern-day living.

0:25:52 > 0:25:55It was made around 1680 to 1700

0:25:55 > 0:25:58and the striking feature of this thing

0:25:58 > 0:26:02is the timber that's been used in its veneers.

0:26:02 > 0:26:08These things are called oysters because the shape of the veneer

0:26:08 > 0:26:12that you see there has been cut from the branch of a tree,

0:26:12 > 0:26:15making that oyster-type shape.

0:26:15 > 0:26:20And because the branch of the tree is not particularly large,

0:26:20 > 0:26:25you need a lot of these oysters to completely cover a surface,

0:26:25 > 0:26:29which is how you get these intriguing shapes.

0:26:29 > 0:26:35The timber that's been used is often referred to as laburnum these days.

0:26:35 > 0:26:42But in the old days, it was sometimes called cocus or stick wood.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45What we see on the outside today is rather gingery in colour.

0:26:45 > 0:26:50But if I open up the cabinet door, you can see the original colour

0:26:50 > 0:26:55was incredibly deep and rich and luxurious.

0:26:55 > 0:26:56This is the colour scheme

0:26:56 > 0:27:01that would have covered the whole of this piece of furniture.

0:27:01 > 0:27:04The doors enclose its function,

0:27:04 > 0:27:08because all these little drawers would be incredibly useful

0:27:08 > 0:27:12for the storage of papers and little personal effects.

0:27:13 > 0:27:18Now, a tip for anybody who's looking for a cabinet on a stand like this -

0:27:18 > 0:27:24I would suggest you pull out the bottom drawer of the upper part

0:27:24 > 0:27:27and if you pull out the draw on the lower part,

0:27:27 > 0:27:33compare carefully the timber and dovetails from top to bottom.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Because very often, the top part - the cabinet bit -

0:27:36 > 0:27:39is different to the bottom part.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43But in this case, they match up perfectly, which is great.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45And while we're down here,

0:27:45 > 0:27:48you should look at these barley twist turned supports.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52They're turned out of a solid lump of laburnum and,

0:27:52 > 0:27:55quite frankly, they're in perfect condition.

0:27:55 > 0:27:59This piece has been treasured for over 300 years.

0:27:59 > 0:28:01The big question today is, of course,

0:28:01 > 0:28:06will anybody be treasuring our teams over at the auction?

0:28:07 > 0:28:10We've come to Gilding's Saleroom in Market Harborough,

0:28:10 > 0:28:13where auctioneer Mark Gilding is in the hot seat.

0:28:13 > 0:28:16Now, first up on this special double-up day,

0:28:16 > 0:28:18our team have gone with this duo number -

0:28:18 > 0:28:23that's the embossed box and the crossover diamond ring.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25They've divided the purchase price

0:28:25 > 0:28:30and apparently the part apportioned to the silver box is £115.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Well, that's a bit of a surprise. - You look nonplussed.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35- Do you think that's too much?- I do. I think that's way too much.

0:28:35 > 0:28:39They should have put a bit more on to the ring, in my opinion.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42- What do you reckon it'll bring? - 40 to 60.- Oh, Lord!

0:28:42 > 0:28:44That's a bit off, isn't it? Then it begs the question,

0:28:44 > 0:28:47- how much do you think the crossover ring is going to bring?- 300 to 400.

0:28:47 > 0:28:51Ah, that's a bit more hopeful, because the attributed price to that is £400.

0:28:51 > 0:28:55- Oh, closer.- So, 300 to 400 is your estimate on that.

0:28:55 > 0:29:00And they're already, potentially, £50 or £60 shy on the silver box.

0:29:00 > 0:29:05- This is not looking so happy, is it?- No, it's not.

0:29:05 > 0:29:09Well, it's going to be for them... It's either silver or jewellery buyers, or toy buyers.

0:29:09 > 0:29:12This is a magnificent little ensemble, this Mamod thing, isn't it?

0:29:12 > 0:29:18- It is. Yeah, I like that. - I think it's unbelievable - this thing's absolutely unplayed with.

0:29:18 > 0:29:20- In its box, plus the trailer. - Yep, a good set.

0:29:20 > 0:29:24- How much, then, Mark?- 50 to 70. - OK, £75 they paid.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27- But it could go a bit more, couldn't it?- It could do, yes.

0:29:27 > 0:29:30Nice with the boxes. We'll have to see what the demand is in the sale.

0:29:30 > 0:29:33So if the worst comes to the worst, they've spent 590,

0:29:33 > 0:29:36they left Anita with £10 for her bonus buy.

0:29:36 > 0:29:38Let's go and have a look at it.

0:29:38 > 0:29:41Now, Stephen and Stuart, you spent nearly all the money.

0:29:41 > 0:29:44You spent £590,

0:29:44 > 0:29:48giving poor Anita just a tenner to spend. So, Anita,

0:29:48 > 0:29:53- show us what you spent.- Well, I spent every penny of the £10. - Fantastic!

0:29:53 > 0:29:57I bought something very, very silly but I hope you like it.

0:29:58 > 0:30:00- ANITA CHUCKLES - OK, yes.

0:30:02 > 0:30:06It's an advertising sign from about the 1910, 1920s,

0:30:06 > 0:30:10and what's happening here is that this lady is making

0:30:10 > 0:30:14spectacles look elegance itself.

0:30:14 > 0:30:19- Elegant and glamorous, yes. - You can just see the spectacles.

0:30:19 > 0:30:22- So an optician would have this on their wall?- Yes.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26So it was £10, and how much do you reckon it'll make?

0:30:26 > 0:30:28I have absolutely no idea!

0:30:28 > 0:30:31If you say 15, I'll be convinced.

0:30:31 > 0:30:33I know. I mean, it's just a bit of fun.

0:30:33 > 0:30:37- Hopefully, it will amuse someone... - I'm sure it will. - ..and they'll pay £50 for it!

0:30:37 > 0:30:41- They won't pay 50 but...- We can't lose a lot of money on it, anyway.

0:30:41 > 0:30:45- It might make £20 on a good day. - I think that's super. I really do.

0:30:45 > 0:30:47The fact of the matter is,

0:30:47 > 0:30:51you didn't give Anita much of a chance, did you, with the £10? So well done, Anita, for that.

0:30:51 > 0:30:52But for the audience at home,

0:30:52 > 0:30:56let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Anita's rimless picture.

0:30:58 > 0:31:02So, Mark, does this remind you of anybody? Anita Manning in specs?

0:31:02 > 0:31:06When you think of the millions spent on advertising today

0:31:06 > 0:31:10by high-street spectacle shops, this fair takes your breath away, doesn't it?

0:31:10 > 0:31:12- It does, yes. Not in a good way.- No.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15I mean, difficult for you to sell.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17Well, I think she did well to find something for £10.

0:31:17 > 0:31:21But it really isn't going to make a lot.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23- Might make £10.- If we're lucky.

0:31:23 > 0:31:28On a good day. Anyway, that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues, Alison and Alison.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31Their first item is the photo frame,

0:31:31 > 0:31:35- which they got really excited about, I have to tell you.- Yes.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Well, I really do want to like this.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40There's a couple of things that just put me off.

0:31:40 > 0:31:44Mainly the condition - there's a big crease in the silver over here

0:31:44 > 0:31:48and quite a few chips to the enamel. One like this,

0:31:48 > 0:31:51in good order, would be £300, £400,

0:31:51 > 0:31:54so they would have made a reasonable profit.

0:31:54 > 0:31:58- But it really brings me down to 60 to 80.- Does it?- It does.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01That's right down, isn't it? 60 to 80. Lordy!

0:32:01 > 0:32:07What about the pewter and Ruskin mounted pot?

0:32:07 > 0:32:08Yeah, again, I like this,

0:32:08 > 0:32:12and I've be been pretty mean with my estimate, I think, on this.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15- I've said 60 to 80. - You're in a rut here, aren't you,

0:32:15 > 0:32:17with this 60 to something or other?

0:32:17 > 0:32:20- I mean, they paid £180 for that. - Well, right.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23OK, fine, you've been a bit mean but that's OK.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Auctioneers sometimes have a modest estimating process

0:32:26 > 0:32:28to draw people in.

0:32:28 > 0:32:31What do you really, really think this might make?

0:32:31 > 0:32:34- I think it might make 200. - Oh, do you?

0:32:34 > 0:32:36Well, there you are, you see.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40We're feeling better already. And what about the Edwardian pendant?

0:32:40 > 0:32:43Nice quality Edwardian bit of jewellery,

0:32:43 > 0:32:45but not particularly in fashion.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49- £30 to £40.- OK, £50 paid so that's not so far off.

0:32:49 > 0:32:53The killer here is going to be the enamel photo frame

0:32:53 > 0:32:58and by jingo, if you're right, they'll need their bonus buy. Let's go and have a look at it.

0:32:58 > 0:33:02To prevent you from having the pleasure of the sudden appearance

0:33:02 > 0:33:06of this lump, we blindfolded you, so would you mind, please,

0:33:06 > 0:33:07taking off your blindfolds now?

0:33:09 > 0:33:11I knew it!

0:33:11 > 0:33:17- Now, as you well know, this is a Victorian pig bench.- Yes.- Yes.

0:33:17 > 0:33:22A wonderful bit of agricultural social history for slaughtering pigs on.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24THE ALISONS CHUCKLE

0:33:24 > 0:33:27Now, I can see you're bowled over with enthusiasm for this.

0:33:27 > 0:33:29Just so pleased to see it again(!)

0:33:29 > 0:33:32Why didn't you like it first time round, Alison?

0:33:32 > 0:33:36I think because it just looked like a bench, for a start,

0:33:36 > 0:33:38and then the history of it.

0:33:38 > 0:33:43- What, the blood?- Yes. And the chopping and the...- Yes, yeah.

0:33:43 > 0:33:47- ..slicing and the squealing. - And the squealing!

0:33:47 > 0:33:49Do you want to know what I paid for it?

0:33:49 > 0:33:51How much did you leave me to spend?

0:33:51 > 0:33:56- 170.- £170. I was very frugal - I only spent 120 of it.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59- Do you think it's going to bring home the bacon?- Oh!

0:33:59 > 0:34:02Well, you don't pick right now, you pick later.

0:34:02 > 0:34:04But for the audience at home, let's have a bit of fun now

0:34:04 > 0:34:08and find out what the auctioneer thinks about Nick's pig bench.

0:34:09 > 0:34:12I'm looking forward to your view on this, Mark, because it's, er,

0:34:12 > 0:34:15an unusual object to have about the house, isn't it?

0:34:15 > 0:34:19It is, yeah. We don't get to see too many of these in Market Harborough.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21Do you see it as a talking point in the front room?

0:34:21 > 0:34:26You don't have a coffee table - you have a pig sticking bench instead?

0:34:26 > 0:34:28No, I think this is pretty awful, to be honest.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30It's a garden bench for someone, I think.

0:34:30 > 0:34:34- £30 to £40 is where I end up. - Do you? I think that's extremely generous of you.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38£120 was paid for the pig sticking bench.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41Let's just hope the teams don't go with it, eh?

0:34:43 > 0:34:46- Anyway, good luck on the rostrum. - Thank you.- Thanks, Mark.

0:34:53 > 0:34:56- OK, boys, how you feeling? Confident?- I am confident.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59First up is the embossed box, and here it comes.

0:34:59 > 0:35:02Embossed with flowers and scrolls. Birmingham, 1904.

0:35:03 > 0:35:05£10, £20, £30,

0:35:05 > 0:35:08£40, £50 I'm bid.

0:35:09 > 0:35:1150 bid. Here with me then at £50. 50 bid.

0:35:11 > 0:35:13Five - do I see a 55? 60? £60.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15At five, I'll take.

0:35:15 > 0:35:1865, 70. £70 I'm bid. At £70.

0:35:18 > 0:35:2175 now with the internet and I'm out. At 75, all out in the room?

0:35:21 > 0:35:23- It's on the internet.- 75?

0:35:23 > 0:35:28- With the internet, then the bid £75 and selling.- Disappointing, this.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30£75, I'm afraid.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32- 25, 35. That's minus 40.- Oh, dear.

0:35:32 > 0:35:35So I fancy he was right on that.

0:35:35 > 0:35:40But now the other half of the equation of your purchase is this ring.

0:35:40 > 0:35:41Here it comes.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44And bidding starts here at £180.

0:35:44 > 0:35:47180, 190, 200.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49£200. Bid at 200.

0:35:49 > 0:35:55210. With the internet at £210. 210 I'm bid, £210.

0:35:55 > 0:35:59£210. 220. In the room now at 220, at 220.

0:35:59 > 0:36:01- This is well worth it.- Come on.

0:36:01 > 0:36:05220. At £220. 220, 230. I'll take 230.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08230, still with the internet. You're all out in the room?

0:36:08 > 0:36:11240 do I see? £230.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14- Good lord!- I will sell to the internet now at £230.

0:36:17 > 0:36:20- £230.- That was very, very cheap.

0:36:20 > 0:36:23- It was, definitely. - Very, very cheap.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26Minus 170 on that. Now...

0:36:26 > 0:36:27here comes the wagon.

0:36:27 > 0:36:31What are these worth? £100, are they?

0:36:31 > 0:36:33£20 I'm bid. For two of these, 20. I'm bid here £20.

0:36:33 > 0:36:36At 20. Five, 30, five, 40.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38£40 here. At £40, at 40.

0:36:38 > 0:36:42£40. 45, new bidding. 45 here, at 45. 50 I'll take.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45It's £45. 50 internet. At £50.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47At 55. 50 I'm bid. At 55.

0:36:47 > 0:36:4960 I'll take, at 55.

0:36:49 > 0:36:5355 - fair warning, then. It's in the room at 60. Now at £60. 65.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56- 65 I'm bid on the internet. It's your turn. 65 in the room.- Come on!

0:36:56 > 0:37:00£65 I'm bid. Can't see you. Internet, then, at 65,

0:37:00 > 0:37:01and I WILL sell.

0:37:01 > 0:37:05- In the room at £65. 70 - I've got a new bidder.- Yes!- £70. At 75?

0:37:05 > 0:37:0875, at 75? Still near the door at 75.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13£75 - it wiped its face. Now, are you going with the bonus buy or not?

0:37:13 > 0:37:15- Yes.- I think so.- You're going with the bonus buy?

0:37:15 > 0:37:18OK, decision made - we're going with the bonus buy. Here it comes.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20- It can't lose much, boys! - What are we saying for this?

0:37:20 > 0:37:25Well, you tell me. £2 I'm bid. £2 I'm bid here.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28At £2. At £2 I'm bid. At £5, I'll take. It's here to be sold.

0:37:28 > 0:37:32£2 over here. At £2. £5 - a bid of five. Thank you, I got you.

0:37:32 > 0:37:35- £5. At five. With the hand at five. Eight I'll take, at £5.- Yes!

0:37:35 > 0:37:37£5 and selling at £5...

0:37:39 > 0:37:40Oh, boys, I'm so sorry.

0:37:45 > 0:37:50There you have it, then. We're ring fencing the losses at £215.

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Could be a winning score!

0:37:53 > 0:37:57Could be a winning score, so don't say a thing to the Blues, OK?

0:37:57 > 0:37:58BOTH: We won't.

0:38:04 > 0:38:07- Do you know how the Reds got on? - No, not a clue.- No idea?

0:38:07 > 0:38:11First up, then, is the frame, with the turquoise enamel. Here it comes.

0:38:11 > 0:38:1350, 60, 70. £80 I'm bid.

0:38:13 > 0:38:1680 I'm bid for the frame here, at 80? At 80?

0:38:16 > 0:38:19- Telephone. That's encouraging. - 90? £90 bid. At £90, at 90.

0:38:19 > 0:38:2490 bid. At £90, at 90. 100. At £100 with the telephone.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26£100 I'm bid.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29- 110 I'll take. 110 now. 110. - 110 against you, sir.

0:38:29 > 0:38:30Did you want to bid? No, thank you.

0:38:30 > 0:38:34Still with the internet, then, at 110. 120, do I see? Telephone?

0:38:34 > 0:38:36You're out. It's 110, with the internet.

0:38:36 > 0:38:40All out in the room? £110 and will sell at 110.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43Oh, boy! Look at that.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46110 is minus 90 smackers, girls.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48You're going to have to grip hard here.

0:38:48 > 0:38:52Now, here comes your pot.

0:38:52 > 0:38:55And bidding starts here at £60.

0:38:55 > 0:38:5960 I'm bid here. 70, 80?

0:38:59 > 0:39:0290, 100. 110 in the room. 110, I'm bid.

0:39:02 > 0:39:04£110 bid. 110, 120, now.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09- 130, 140.- They've got a phone bid on this, as well.- 150. 150 bid.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11At 150, 160 I'll take. It's 150.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14160. 170.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17170. 180? 190.

0:39:18 > 0:39:20200. 210.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23- 210 again.- 220. 230.

0:39:23 > 0:39:26- We're off now. We're off now! - 240. 250.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29- 250 again.- 260.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32- 270.- Grip fast.

0:39:32 > 0:39:34280. 290.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36- 290 again.- 300.

0:39:38 > 0:39:42I'll take ten if you like - it's £300. 310. Thank you, at 310. 320.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47I'll wait again - it's 320.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49We're talking £320, here.

0:39:49 > 0:39:53£320. Fair warning, then, at 320, and I will sell.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56Yes! £320 -

0:39:56 > 0:40:00that is a profit of £140.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04That's what we like. Less the 90 you had before, right,

0:40:04 > 0:40:05means you are plus 50.

0:40:05 > 0:40:09- OK, girls. What about the Edwardian pendant?- 18, 20,

0:40:09 > 0:40:1122, 25, 28, 30.

0:40:11 > 0:40:1532. 32? At £32, I'm bid. At 32.

0:40:15 > 0:40:1735, 38. 40?

0:40:17 > 0:40:2142. 45, 48.

0:40:21 > 0:40:2248 - still 48.

0:40:22 > 0:40:26You're out at the back. It's £48 here, then. At 48. 50 I'll take.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28£48 and selling at 48.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31Bad luck - you're minus two on that.

0:40:31 > 0:40:36But you are still plus 48 smackers overall. How about that?

0:40:36 > 0:40:40- That is a bit of a turn-up, isn't it? Are you feeling good about that, Alison?- Yes.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42- Are you feeling good about that, Alison?- Yes!

0:40:42 > 0:40:45There's two happy Alisons here.

0:40:45 > 0:40:47What are you going to do about the Victorian pig bench?

0:40:47 > 0:40:52- We're going to leave it. Sorry.- What?- Sorry.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55You're not going to go for the pig bench? I'm mortified!

0:40:55 > 0:40:59- No pig bench?- No. - We're not going with the bonus buy.

0:40:59 > 0:41:03- Fair enough.- But we're going to sell it anyway so let's see what happens.

0:41:03 > 0:41:06..is this Victorian pine pig bench.

0:41:08 > 0:41:12122. What do we say for this? I'm starting at £10.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15£10 I'm bid, then, for the pig bench. At £10?

0:41:15 > 0:41:19At 10? You tell me what it's worth. At 10. Here at £10. At 10.

0:41:19 > 0:41:2312, I'll take. At £10, I'm bid. £12. 15?

0:41:23 > 0:41:27- 15? 18, 20...- You were right to dismiss it.

0:41:27 > 0:41:3022? 25? £25.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33Close to you, then, at £25. 28, I'll take. It's £25.

0:41:33 > 0:41:37And I'm selling now. 25.

0:41:37 > 0:41:40That is minus £95, all right?

0:41:40 > 0:41:43I mean, nice one, Nick, but you didn't go with it.

0:41:43 > 0:41:48That means you have got your profit of £48 to wander off with.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51- Just don't say a word to the Reds. - No.- No, great.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54We'll catch up in a minute. Happy Alisons!

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Well, there's been some serious punting around today

0:42:01 > 0:42:03on our double-up day.

0:42:03 > 0:42:07Look at these teams, all looking expectant and confident.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10- Have you been chatting to one another, have you?- No.

0:42:10 > 0:42:12No? Not at all?

0:42:12 > 0:42:15Well, we have got one enormous thumping loss here

0:42:15 > 0:42:18and sadly, it is the Reds who have suffered.

0:42:18 > 0:42:20THEY CHUCKLE

0:42:20 > 0:42:23- Minus £215 is a fair old score, isn't it?- It's a good loss!

0:42:23 > 0:42:27- It's a good loss! - It's a wonderful loss!

0:42:27 > 0:42:30Inexplicable that that two-stone diamond ring didn't do better.

0:42:30 > 0:42:34I'm really sorry for you about that because it torpedoed your opportunity.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36- That's all right - we had fun, anyway.- You had fun -

0:42:36 > 0:42:39and that is exactly the right Bargain Hunt attitude.

0:42:39 > 0:42:45- But the victors today... - Yes!- Just look at these Alisons.

0:42:45 > 0:42:49They're going to take home a princely £48. Here you go.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51£48 coming up.

0:42:51 > 0:42:56They made a profit of £140 on one item, which was really good,

0:42:56 > 0:42:58wasn't it? The Birmingham box.

0:42:58 > 0:43:03You didn't go for the bonus buy, which was pretty smart, and we've loved having you on the show.

0:43:03 > 0:43:06- Thank you very much.- Have you had a nice time?- Fabulous time!

0:43:06 > 0:43:09- Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?- ALL: Yes!
