0:00:06 > 0:00:09Today's a windy and wet double-up day.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13We're at Deene Park near Corby.

0:00:13 > 0:00:17This place was once the home of the seventh Earl of Cardigan,

0:00:17 > 0:00:20who led the charge of the Light Brigade.

0:00:20 > 0:00:21Look what happened to him!

0:00:21 > 0:00:26Let's hope such a fate doesn't befall our teams today.

0:00:26 > 0:00:27Yeah.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52What a show we have for you today, Bargain Hunters!

0:00:52 > 0:00:54Charles is talking big.

0:00:54 > 0:00:58- 43.- 43.- I'm excited.- I'm going to say that's a real bargain.

0:00:58 > 0:01:02I'm convinced it will make a handsome profit.

0:01:02 > 0:01:07I don't often say it, but all three items are three winners.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10And the blue team haggle hard.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14What's the best deal you can do on it, on negotiation.

0:01:14 > 0:01:15Would you take 150?

0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Can we meet you half way? - Sorry, love. I can't.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21You know you can do it. You know you want to.

0:01:23 > 0:01:27Being a double-up day, it's double the pressure at auction.

0:01:27 > 0:01:28Gee whizz.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34Even with £600 each to spend,

0:01:34 > 0:01:37the other rules on Bargain Hunt remain the same.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40They each get one hour to shop for three items.

0:01:40 > 0:01:44And the team that makes the most profit over at the auction wins.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47Right. Let's meet today's teams.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53Competing on Bargain Hunt today, a team of friends. For the reds

0:01:53 > 0:01:56we have Craig and Ray.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00And very special friends for the blues, mother and daughter, Joan and Emma.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02- Welcome to Bargain Hunt.- Thank you.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05Craig, how did you two meet?

0:02:05 > 0:02:10Me and Ray met working at the dairy in Ashby-de-la-Zouche.

0:02:10 > 0:02:15We spent many a time in the canteen, mulling over a cup of tea watching Bargain Hunt.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18We said we could get on the show and perform.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22- Do better than anybody has ever seen before, right?- But of course!

0:02:22 > 0:02:27- Are you still at the dairy?- No, I left, sadly, about two months ago.

0:02:27 > 0:02:31- What do you do for a living now? - I work for a corrugated cardboard manufacturer.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33- How are you getting on?- Fantastic.

0:02:33 > 0:02:40- I'm loving it. Every minute. - But you've done this for a purpose, haven't you?- I have.- What's that?

0:02:40 > 0:02:44Basically to spend more time with my family and go and do my singing.

0:02:44 > 0:02:48- Singing?- I sing, yes.- What sort of singing do you like to do?

0:02:48 > 0:02:51- I'm a swing singer.- Will you give us a blast?- Why not?

0:02:51 > 0:02:53- Would you like to hear it now? - Please.

0:02:53 > 0:02:59# Everybody loves somebody some time

0:02:59 > 0:03:04# Everybody falls in love somehow #

0:03:04 > 0:03:07Isn't that great? He deserves a round of applause.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09- Mellow.- Really good.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13This is becoming a talent programme, this Bargain Hunt lark!

0:03:13 > 0:03:16Ray, you work in the dairy. What do you do there?

0:03:16 > 0:03:20I like to think I help kick-start the nation by putting the milk in the bottles.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23- That's good.- That's my bit for the country.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27- You haven't always worked at the dairy.- No, I used to run my own pottery.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30Manufacturing and silk-screen printing.

0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Why did you give up all that and go for the dairy?- Financial, really.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37I thought, "I've got to start earning a wage."

0:03:37 > 0:03:40- How are you going to get on today? - We hope we'll win!

0:03:40 > 0:03:44Have you looked at the opposition? They look tough, these girls.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46- Oh, I don't know. - Anyway, very good luck.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49- Girls, are you quaking in your boots?- Yes!

0:03:49 > 0:03:53- Joanie, you're a lady of leisure, I'm told.- So I'm told, too!

0:03:53 > 0:03:56What did you get up to when you were working?

0:03:56 > 0:04:01- I was a nurse.- Were you? - I was a midwife and district nurse for about 20 years.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03How do you spend your time now, Joan?

0:04:03 > 0:04:06I garden, I look after the grandchildren,

0:04:06 > 0:04:08I help my sister look after my mother.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11Emma joined me to a choral society at Christmas.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13- My Christmas present.- So you sing?

0:04:13 > 0:04:16- Do you want to sing now? - I'm not warbling, no!

0:04:16 > 0:04:19You can join in the crooning!

0:04:19 > 0:04:22Emms, what do you do for a living?

0:04:22 > 0:04:26I freelance. I work for a TV gardener as a sponsorship manager.

0:04:26 > 0:04:31I also work for a gentleman in a media company as a production assistant.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35I have three children and I also help on the farm

0:04:35 > 0:04:38and this year I helped deliver 1,600 lambs.

0:04:38 > 0:04:401,600 lambs?

0:04:40 > 0:04:42That is something else, isn't it?

0:04:42 > 0:04:47Emms, what do you think about me giving you £600 to spend? Is that cool?

0:04:47 > 0:04:50That's really generous, Tim. Thank you very much.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53We have privileged teams. £600 - it's double-up day.

0:04:53 > 0:04:57Here you go. There's £600. That's what £600 looks like.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00You know the rules. Your experts await. Run off!

0:05:03 > 0:05:05So, let's meet our experts.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Charles Hanson will be guiding the reds.

0:05:10 > 0:05:13Whilst David Harper will be in charge of the blues.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Not yet. Oh! Sorry!

0:05:16 > 0:05:20They're on the clock. Let battle commence!

0:05:20 > 0:05:22Spend, spend and spend more.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Seriously? You're saying, "Spend, spend, spend"?- Yes.

0:05:25 > 0:05:29I can't believe you've got £600. What are you going to do with it?

0:05:29 > 0:05:33If you need someone strong and handsome to pick heavy stuff up, it's me.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37- I think we have to look for something that appeals. Something quirky.- OK.

0:05:37 > 0:05:42- Are we doing a speculative thing? - Are you really looking to see big returns...

0:05:42 > 0:05:46I don't know why I picked it up. It's frightening. Horrible.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49- Stop talking and start looking. - Right. Thanks.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55It's the eagle-eyes blues who spot something first.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57What about this? Is it a real one?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59"Rolls-Royce Motors." The Spirit of Ecstasy.

0:05:59 > 0:06:05- What's it made of?- It's steel, but it's a real Rolls-Royce bonnet mascot.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07The Flying Lady. Isn't she gorgeous?

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Can I feel it?- Lovely.- Thank you.

0:06:09 > 0:06:12- It's quite heavy.- What have you got on that one?

0:06:12 > 0:06:15- 200 would be the best. - Is that the best trade?

0:06:15 > 0:06:16The very best, yeah.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19What would you normally expect to pay?

0:06:19 > 0:06:21They can make 200 to £400, probably.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24They'd be much more from Rolls-Royce.

0:06:24 > 0:06:29- If you wanted a replacement...- It's instantly recognisable.- It's iconic.

0:06:29 > 0:06:34- Yes.- I like it.- I know. But at 200 quid. It would be nice for 100 quid.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36- No, can't do that.- Who's laughing?

0:06:41 > 0:06:44- What's the best deal you can do? - That is it.- 200.- It is.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47You can't... Non-negotiation? Non-negotiation.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50- 180.- 180?- That would be it.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Really.- 160?- No, I can't do it.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55You can't? Shall we have a think about it?

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Emma, we'd better, because we're only about three seconds in!

0:06:58 > 0:07:02I mean, I like acting fast, but come on!

0:07:02 > 0:07:04- Would you take 150?- No.- No?

0:07:04 > 0:07:07We might get him later. You could charm him.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10I'll come back and try and charm you in a minute.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12Could we look at that silver item?

0:07:12 > 0:07:15You go, girl!

0:07:18 > 0:07:22May I have a seat, sir? What I quite like is this.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25They don't look a lot. Have a look at that tea bowl and saucer.

0:07:25 > 0:07:30- It's basically a small, miniature... - There's no mark on the bottom.

0:07:30 > 0:07:34- Does that mean anything?- It doesn't matter, because it's quite early.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37- It's period.- Period. How early are we talking?

0:07:37 > 0:07:39I'd have said 1810.

0:07:39 > 0:07:42I quite agree. Look at the bottom of the tea bowl, Craig.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46Can you see? We've got a very blurry... Look at the blurry blue.

0:07:46 > 0:07:51- Is that caused by the firing? - That's actually in the glaze. The cobalt in the glaze.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55This was made five years before the Battle of Waterloo.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57- OK? That's interesting, isn't it? - It is, very.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00- Going back to George III. - It's been about a long time.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04The mad King George III. Back to real history.

0:08:04 > 0:08:09- What's the best price, sir? - I can... 30.- I really rate it.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13- Would you take £25 for it? - Yeah, go on. Why not?

0:08:13 > 0:08:15I'm going to say to you, gents,

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- buy it! - Is it a bargain?- Yes.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Because it's Bargain Hunt.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22- I never normally say this... - It's exciting.

0:08:22 > 0:08:27I'm going to say that's a real bargain and I'm convinced will make a handsome profit.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31- We're very happy with that.- Thought you might be, cos I know you.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35Strong words from Charles, but is he right?

0:08:35 > 0:08:38We're doing all right, but we should head inside.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40I really, really feel, at £25,

0:08:40 > 0:08:45if that doesn't make £45, I'd be amazed.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48OK, Carlos, we get the message. Tuck your shirt in!

0:08:48 > 0:08:52Meanwhile, the blues are still at their first stall. It must be love.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55You're calling it a wine taster?

0:08:55 > 0:09:00- "1953". Which was the year of Queen Elizabeth's coronation.- Right.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04- Is it a coronation piece? - Yes, I believe so.- You do?

0:09:04 > 0:09:06So the jeweller is who?

0:09:06 > 0:09:08"Garrard & Co.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11"112 Regent Street, London."

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Ooh, very nice.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16- So a wine taster?- Yes.- Is that what you call it, a wine taster?- Yes.

0:09:16 > 0:09:20- I'd always thought that was a coaster. But you mean to...- Yes.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22Is that how you drink your wine?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24I think I'd need a bigger one!

0:09:24 > 0:09:26We need a bucket!

0:09:28 > 0:09:30What's trade on that one?

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Here we go. Emma's haggle, round two.

0:09:32 > 0:09:3465.

0:09:34 > 0:09:3665.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38- Couldn't be 40, could it?- No.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40How about 45?

0:09:41 > 0:09:44I'll do it for 50 and that will be it.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47- 45.- No, can't do it.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49- She's a tough one!- I know.

0:09:49 > 0:09:5245. Come on. You know you can do it. You know you want to.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55Look into her eyes and tell me you can deny her!

0:09:55 > 0:09:58My wife's just over there!

0:09:58 > 0:10:00It's all right. She can't hear!

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Emma, look at him.

0:10:03 > 0:10:05- Go on, then, 45.- 45. - You got him. Well done.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08END-OF-ROUND BELL

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Knock-out!

0:10:10 > 0:10:11Well done.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Seven minutes.- Is that good?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Very good. I love it.

0:10:19 > 0:10:24I've got to say I like it. It's always done me well in the past, Murano.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27- We've still got 575 left. - We'll get something big now, then.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29I want to spend, now.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31This is very good, here.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33It's a lady's slipper.

0:10:33 > 0:10:38They used to use it in the coaches. Ladies used it in the old coaches.

0:10:38 > 0:10:40- When they were caught short. - A urinal?

0:10:40 > 0:10:42It's got a candle-holder in it.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45A candle one minute, then when you want to extinguish it...

0:10:45 > 0:10:48That is quirky.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50It is quirky. A bit painful.

0:10:50 > 0:10:52I've never seen such a fancy lady's urinal!

0:10:52 > 0:10:55- What a picture that is.- Isn't it?

0:10:55 > 0:10:56There's a lot going on.

0:10:56 > 0:11:01"Relief of the Light Brigade." The seventh Earl of Cardigan,

0:11:01 > 0:11:07who lived here, years ago led this charge, back in 1854.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09- So it's got great local interest. - Connection.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Could we afford that?

0:11:11 > 0:11:13- Will it sell well?- No.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16- Would it make a profit? - I don't think so.

0:11:16 > 0:11:18- Let's find out.- Military. - Hello, sir.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20May we ask how much this picture is?

0:11:20 > 0:11:22That's up for 180.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25- Is it a lithograph?- Yes. - It's a lithograph, OK?

0:11:25 > 0:11:30I think it's fantastic. I honestly thought he'd say a lot more than that.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32A lot more than that.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Ray, what do you think?

0:11:36 > 0:11:38I'm not so sure, to be fair.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41No. I'm tempted to say we'll think about it.

0:11:41 > 0:11:46Put it onto radar and perhaps come back to it later if we are looking.

0:11:46 > 0:11:50- Shall we leave it?- Yes, we'll leave it.- Thank you very much.- Thank you.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Let's go indoors.

0:11:55 > 0:11:59You know, I rather fancy the look of this pot.

0:11:59 > 0:12:03It's got this strange mark on the bottom. An impressed mark.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06It's a hand in a rectangle underneath a blobbolob.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09I think it's rather intriguing.

0:12:09 > 0:12:13- Let's ask the proprietor of this stall. Hi, Ruthie.- Hi.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16What do you know about this silver pot?

0:12:16 > 0:12:19It's Sheffield plate. It's an interesting piece.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23This mark would be somewhere between 1800 and 1840.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26The plating is in very good condition for Sheffield plate.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30Often there's copper coming through, which this hasn't got.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33This piece here is inset in silver.

0:12:33 > 0:12:35It's probably a family crest.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37It needs more research.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39- How much is it?- £40.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42Thank you very much, Ruth. Tell you what we'll do.

0:12:42 > 0:12:49You can come with me. Later in the programme we'll shove off to the Sheffield Millennium Museum.

0:12:49 > 0:12:54I'll find out from the curator there exactly all about that mark.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01- Clocks, as well. I like clocks. - Yes, I like clocks.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06"Two for one"? Listen to this lovely lady.

0:13:06 > 0:13:07I like two for one.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09- Two for one.- So what are you saying?

0:13:09 > 0:13:12- 95.- What about the 87?

0:13:12 > 0:13:14- No, both of them.- Two for 95 quid.

0:13:14 > 0:13:18Um, does it really excite me?

0:13:18 > 0:13:24- I like the decanters and I'd pay £100 for them.- I can't do that. Can't do less than 160 for them.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27Gents, again, I'm sort of... Handle that.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29It doesn't look a lot, does it?

0:13:29 > 0:13:31- Nothing, really. - This was made by Worcester

0:13:31 > 0:13:34in around 1755.

0:13:35 > 0:13:381755, OK? They say small is beautiful.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42We just check by just putting our tooth or teeth...

0:13:42 > 0:13:46You can tell there's been no restoration at all.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48What's the best you'll take for it?

0:13:48 > 0:13:52I can do that for 360.

0:13:53 > 0:13:56If push comes to shove, yes, 350,

0:13:56 > 0:13:58but it won't make a penny less than that.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00OK. Let's think about it.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04Can we request that you keep it to one side for ten minutes or so?

0:14:04 > 0:14:08- Ten minutes. There's 20 minutes to go.- No problem.

0:14:08 > 0:14:12Let's look at the name on the end. What have we got?

0:14:12 > 0:14:14- "Liberty & Co."- I like that.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16- You've got a pair of those? - A pair, yes.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18- HE MOUTHS - I like those.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21- Yes.- They're nice. - What I think of it...

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Stop it. Don't get carried away with this gentleman!

0:14:24 > 0:14:28I've been known to take advantage of young ladies before!

0:14:29 > 0:14:33Talk to me about age. How old do you think they are?

0:14:33 > 0:14:36- Goodness... I think... - Not Art Nouveau?

0:14:36 > 0:14:38Absolutely bang on Art Nouveau.

0:14:38 > 0:14:42They're absolutely delicious. But what's the absolute death trade?

0:14:42 > 0:14:44The absolute death on them would be...

0:14:45 > 0:14:47250.

0:14:47 > 0:14:52In the right sale, you could be looking at 300 or £400, I'd have thought.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Absolutely right. Could they be one-and-a-half?

0:14:55 > 0:14:59No. No, I'm afraid not. No. I've given you my best price.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02- I really like these. - I know. Could they be 200?

0:15:02 > 0:15:06No, they couldn't. No, no. Absolute death is 250.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Can we meet you half way?- No, I'm sorry. No. No. I can't. Honestly.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14- Are you sure we can't twist you? - Never been so sure in my life! - Really?

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Looks like they've met their match!

0:15:17 > 0:15:21If I sell them to you for 225, what about the gas and the electric?

0:15:21 > 0:15:24My heart bleeds!

0:15:24 > 0:15:28Gents, I'm panicking a bit. There's 15 minutes to go. 1-5. Quarter of an hour.

0:15:28 > 0:15:31- OK.- This is nice. What we've got here, Ray,

0:15:31 > 0:15:33is...

0:15:34 > 0:15:41..a George III, 1802, sugar bowl. Matched teapot, that one there.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43It's fully hallmarked.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45And also,

0:15:45 > 0:15:50the milk jug. But I don't know if they all go as one lot.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52For that price there, OK?

0:15:52 > 0:15:56- I think we need to find out. - It's quite a good set.

0:15:56 > 0:16:00- We quite like your three-piece tea-sets.- Yes?

0:16:00 > 0:16:02- It is Georgian, isn't it? - It is, yes.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05- It's hallmarked for 1802.- Yes.

0:16:05 > 0:16:0813 years before the Battle of Waterloo.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Tell me the best price on that. It's priced at 395, I think.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Your absolute best would be?

0:16:13 > 0:16:15350.

0:16:15 > 0:16:19I like it. But I would like to acquire it for £300

0:16:19 > 0:16:21because then it gives us a chance.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23Tea-sets make a certain figure at auction.

0:16:23 > 0:16:28- Yes.- It's earlier, it's a bit more interesting.- I'd accept 320

0:16:28 > 0:16:31but 300 is taking it just that bit too far.

0:16:31 > 0:16:32Yes.

0:16:32 > 0:16:36- But we like it, don't we? Are you in?- I love it.

0:16:36 > 0:16:41- Ray?- Yes.- We're that close. Would you meet us halfway at 310, madam?

0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Indeed. All right. - Are you sure?- Yes.

0:16:43 > 0:16:48- At 310, madam, we'll take it. - Thank you.- Thanks ever so much.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51That's purchase number two for the reds.

0:16:51 > 0:16:56Whilst the blues are still banging on about these wretched bowls.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59If he'd go to 200, I think it would have been worth doing.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02- At 200, I'd have snapped his hand off, but he's not moving.- No.

0:17:02 > 0:17:07- Can I go and work on him? - You can. Shall we try her? Go and stare at him!

0:17:07 > 0:17:10With those big blue eyes and offer him 225, cash.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13Go on, Emms. Work your magic.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15You never know. She's staring at him.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18- How about if I buy you a cup of coffee or a bag of crisps? - Sorry, no.

0:17:18 > 0:17:23- No, I'm sorry. They've got to be 250.- The worrying thing is that...

0:17:23 > 0:17:26- Has it worked?- I'm afraid not. No.

0:17:26 > 0:17:29- You haven't given me long enough! - Come back with me.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32We haven't got much time. Right. OK.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36We're not going to get any more off at all. 250 or nothing.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39- I think we should go for it. - Take a chance.- We'll do it.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Yes.- Shall I shake the man's hand?

0:17:41 > 0:17:44- You go and give him a kiss.- Give him a kiss you might get £25 off!

0:17:47 > 0:17:51- Shall I give him a kiss?- I don't think that would work.- Make his day!

0:17:54 > 0:17:58No tongue sandwich! Anyway, that seals the deal.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00Two silver-plated bowls for 250.

0:18:01 > 0:18:04That's a nice one. Any ideas what timber this is, Ray?

0:18:04 > 0:18:06I'll test you. What wood is that?

0:18:06 > 0:18:08I have not got a clue.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11It's a really rich, vibrant, South American rosewood.

0:18:11 > 0:18:14Yet this would be from around 1820.

0:18:14 > 0:18:17In fact, what it is, is a tea caddy.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20So, back in that time of 1820

0:18:20 > 0:18:23when tea was expensive, tea only came from China,

0:18:23 > 0:18:28it was kept under lock and key to keep it away from the butler.

0:18:28 > 0:18:30I really like this. It's sophisticated,

0:18:30 > 0:18:34it's sharp, it's a great sarcophagus shape.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35I really rate it.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39What's it worth? Madam, we like this caddy very much.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42It's priced at £115.

0:18:42 > 0:18:43What shall we offer, Ray?

0:18:43 > 0:18:4580?

0:18:47 > 0:18:49Go on. 80.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52I'll accept 85. It's a nice piece.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56Cash. 80. Come on!

0:18:56 > 0:19:00- Yes?- Great.- That's very good of you. - Thanks.- Well done.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Thank you very much. Great. I like that.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07I'm really happy. I don't often say it, but all three items,

0:19:07 > 0:19:10in my eyes, are three winners.

0:19:12 > 0:19:15- Have you never said that before? - Never, ever!

0:19:15 > 0:19:18- I don't believe that.- I'm deadly serious.- Yeah!- You wait and see.

0:19:18 > 0:19:23Oh, Charles! I can't wait for the auction. With five minutes to go,

0:19:23 > 0:19:26the blues still need to make one more purchase.

0:19:26 > 0:19:28- Are you ready to run?- I'm ready.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31- Go!- It won't be a marathon.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35- Oh, that way. It's that way. - Yes, it was.

0:19:35 > 0:19:39It seems the blues are determined to return to the first dealer they met

0:19:39 > 0:19:42so that they can haggle over the Rolls-Royce mascot.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46Maybe he's hiding. You can't blame him, can you?

0:19:46 > 0:19:48I can see his jumper.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51Bad luck, mate. You've been spotted.

0:19:51 > 0:19:52Right, Emma.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55I hope you don't ask me to go back there!

0:19:55 > 0:19:57You did very well. Well done, you.

0:19:57 > 0:20:03- Right. The Spirit of Ecstasy.- Right. - We've only got a certain amount of money left.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06- I still like this, David. - It's nicely spring-loaded.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09- Yes.- It's all greased up, ready to fit to a beautiful Rolls-Royce.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11Is it going to be a beautiful price?

0:20:11 > 0:20:13START-OF-ROUND BELL

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Here we go again, Bargain Hunters. Round three.

0:20:16 > 0:20:22- I gave you a price of what, 180? - 180. But we can't have it at that. That's the problem.

0:20:22 > 0:20:26- We have a real problem. What would...- As we've just bought the first thing from you.

0:20:26 > 0:20:31- What's the best deal you can do? - She's doing it again. - I know! I know.

0:20:32 > 0:20:36- 165.- 150, job done.- Can't do it.

0:20:36 > 0:20:40Shall we meet you halfway? You want 160. I want 150. How about 155?

0:20:42 > 0:20:44- JOAN:- What's a fiver between friends?

0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Yeah.- Go on, then. Go on, then.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Go on, then.- Well done.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51Thank you. Thank you very much.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53I think he deserves a kiss, too.

0:20:53 > 0:20:58- Give me a kiss, first!- Thank you for being patient.- Thank you very much.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02Right. Our shopping bout is over.

0:21:02 > 0:21:07First, let's remind ourselves what the reds have bought. Woof!

0:21:07 > 0:21:10Shake hands. I'll say that's a real bargain.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Will Charles regret his prediction

0:21:12 > 0:21:15when the miniature tea-set heads to auction?

0:21:15 > 0:21:20The boys paid a whopping £310 for the Georgian silver tea-set.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22Could this be an expensive gamble?

0:21:23 > 0:21:28And finally, £80 was forked out for the tea caddy.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Wow!

0:21:30 > 0:21:33It's sharp, it's sophisticated, I'm really pleased with it.

0:21:33 > 0:21:38- Are we talking about Charles - sharp and sophisticated?- Could be! - Talking about you!- Yeah(!)

0:21:38 > 0:21:42- You know how to butter a bloke up, Craig.- Dead right.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45- Now, tell me. You've bought your three items.- Yes.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49You're happy with the tea caddy cos it's sharp and sophisticated.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53- Apart from that, what's your favourite item? - Mine was the silverware.- Yes?- Yes.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56- Craig?- I'd have to go for the tea caddy

0:21:56 > 0:22:00because I like the way how the lining inside has been worn away.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Someone likes a nice cup of tea and so do I.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05Good. That's a lovely neat answer, that is(!)

0:22:05 > 0:22:08- How much did you spend all round, Ray?- 415.

0:22:08 > 0:22:11- I'd like £185 of leftover lolly, please.- Indeed.

0:22:11 > 0:22:16Here we go. 185. That's lovely. That looks to be complete, Charles.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19This is quite a lot of money for you. It's pocket money time.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22It's a lot of money. I'll find something good to spend it on.

0:22:22 > 0:22:27It's spend, spend, spend, Tim, and put it all into the mix at auction.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Nothing ever changes with you, Charles. Very good luck.

0:22:30 > 0:22:33Why don't we check out what the blues bought?

0:22:33 > 0:22:37- Go on, then. 45.- 45. - You got it. Well done.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39After severe bargaining,

0:22:39 > 0:22:43the coronation dish was snapped up for £45.

0:22:45 > 0:22:50A kiss secured the silver-plated bowls for 250.

0:22:51 > 0:22:52Go on, then.

0:22:53 > 0:22:58And for a quiet life, the dealer let the Rolls-Royce mascot go for 155.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03- Gosh, you're looking happy, team. - Very.- Lovely.

0:23:03 > 0:23:07- How have you got on with this mother and daughter combo?- Fabulous!

0:23:07 > 0:23:10We've got wet a few times, running around in the grass outside.

0:23:10 > 0:23:12We've had a whale of a time, Tim!

0:23:12 > 0:23:14- It's been good?- It's been great. Thank you.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16Which is your favourite piece?

0:23:16 > 0:23:20My favourite? Ooh, I like two.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22- But if I had to pick.- Pick one.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24- I have to pick one.- One.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28- Probably...- Probably. Maybe. - The Liberty bowls.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31- Do you agree with that, Ma? - Yes, I think so.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34I actually do like the Spirit of Ecstasy.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38- I do, as well. They're the two faves.- We bought some things, Tim.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41Liberty, the Spirit of Ecstasy. Fantastic names.

0:23:41 > 0:23:43- Absolutely.- And Garrard.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45- Garrard.- And Garrard.- Garrard!

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- That was our first swift buy.- Yep.

0:23:47 > 0:23:52You are such smoothies! So what did you spend overall? What's the total?

0:23:52 > 0:23:57- 450 and we've got 150 left. - Have you? Well, give that to me.

0:23:57 > 0:24:01- There we go.- Like the tax man, I'll pass it on to him.

0:24:01 > 0:24:03£150 is a decent wodge, isn't it?

0:24:03 > 0:24:05No better person to spend it, though.

0:24:05 > 0:24:10But for us, we're heading off to Sheffield Millennium Galleries.

0:24:10 > 0:24:11Ooh-ah!

0:24:15 > 0:24:20And while I'm here, I can find out more about the curious mark

0:24:20 > 0:24:23on the silver coffee pot I picked up at the fair.

0:24:24 > 0:24:30The museum have confirmed that the mark is from an old Sheffield plating firm

0:24:30 > 0:24:32called Watson & Co.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35So that's that mystery sorted out.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38And it does date from around 1830.

0:24:38 > 0:24:42What we're going to do now, though, is go into the metalwork gallery

0:24:42 > 0:24:48and actually understand what it was that happened over 200 years ago

0:24:48 > 0:24:51that started Sheffield off

0:24:51 > 0:24:54as the famous centre for plated wares like this.

0:25:00 > 0:25:06So how did this Sheffield plate lark start here in Sheffield, and why?

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Well, it dates back to the 1740s

0:25:09 > 0:25:14when one Thomas Bolsover, who was a cutler in Sheffield,

0:25:14 > 0:25:17noticed that silver, solid silver,

0:25:17 > 0:25:20fuses with copper when it melts.

0:25:20 > 0:25:25And, more importantly, having fused the two metals together,

0:25:25 > 0:25:30it was possible to reheat them and roll them out in big flat sheets.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33On early pieces of Sheffield plate, though,

0:25:33 > 0:25:37it was only possible to apply the silver on one surface.

0:25:37 > 0:25:42Here, we've got some Thomas Bolsover-period hunting buttons.

0:25:42 > 0:25:47The outer surface is silvery, but on the back, it's the bare metal.

0:25:47 > 0:25:52Ditto here with this brandy or sauce pan.

0:25:52 > 0:25:57They've neatly covered the interior with silver, but not the exterior.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01By the time you get to around 1770, though,

0:26:01 > 0:26:06they'd perfected the technique of applying silver on both sides of the copper,

0:26:06 > 0:26:09effectively making the copper the jam in the sandwich.

0:26:09 > 0:26:11So that when you opened up a vessel,

0:26:11 > 0:26:16it's not only silvery outside, but also silvery inside.

0:26:16 > 0:26:22Now, one of the most exciting and interesting things they've got in the galleries here

0:26:22 > 0:26:25is the opportunities to compare and contrast.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28Here we've got two magnificent candlesticks

0:26:28 > 0:26:31which date from the 1780s.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34If I put one against the other,

0:26:34 > 0:26:37you'd think they were an identical pair.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40They're actually as different as chalk and cheese

0:26:40 > 0:26:44when it comes to the materials used in their manufacture.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47This one is solid silver and hallmarked Sheffield.

0:26:47 > 0:26:50This one is made of Sheffield plate.

0:26:50 > 0:26:54Now you get a hint that it's made of Sheffield plate

0:26:54 > 0:26:56because you can see the copper wearing through.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00But when this was brand new, it would have looked identical.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04What's the other thing that Sheffield is famous for? Cutlery.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08Look at the Sheffield trademark on the outside of the box.

0:27:08 > 0:27:14It says, "Rust nor stain" in red, in bold capitals.

0:27:14 > 0:27:18This is the claim that the Sheffield cutlers were able to use

0:27:18 > 0:27:21because of their use of Sheffield stainless steel.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24What had happened previously

0:27:24 > 0:27:27throughout the 17th, 18th and 19th century,

0:27:27 > 0:27:30the blades on cutlery looked a bit like this.

0:27:30 > 0:27:34They were made of steel, but not stainless steel.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38This one's been nicely polished for museum display,

0:27:38 > 0:27:42but you can still see pitting and discolouration under the surface.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45And that is the beginning of rust.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49So the Sheffield cutlers adopted stainless steel

0:27:49 > 0:27:53for its qualities of non-staining and non-rusting,

0:27:53 > 0:27:57and here we've got two knives which date from around 1913

0:27:57 > 0:27:59that are spotted with acid

0:27:59 > 0:28:03because they were used to test the stainless steel

0:28:03 > 0:28:07to make quite sure that it wouldn't discolour or stain.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09The big question today is, of course,

0:28:09 > 0:28:13are our teams going to have nerves of steel over at the auction?

0:28:16 > 0:28:20Here at Mellors and Kirk auction house in Nottingham,

0:28:20 > 0:28:23let's find out if Charles can top up his team's totals

0:28:23 > 0:28:25with a brilliant bonus buy.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32Craig and Ray, here we are at the leftover lolly moment.

0:28:32 > 0:28:36What did Charles Hanson spend your £185 on?

0:28:36 > 0:28:40- Charles?- Well, Tim. - Wow.- There we go. Gentlemen,

0:28:40 > 0:28:44novelty is a really important factor on the market. This will sell well.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46I really thought that.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49Made by Henry Matthews in Birmingham, 1917.

0:28:49 > 0:28:52It's a cornucopia in shape. There are minor imperfections

0:28:52 > 0:28:57but I do feel, Tim, novelty here ought to outweigh condition,

0:28:57 > 0:28:59- which can be rectified.- Yes.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02I think Craig's face says it all, frankly.

0:29:02 > 0:29:06He's obviously riveted by this, aren't you? What do you think?

0:29:06 > 0:29:08- Blown away!- It has a function, too.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11It's practical, but decorative and very novel.

0:29:11 > 0:29:12It's a caster for sugar.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16I paid 185. That's all the money gone.

0:29:16 > 0:29:20It might be a mistake. But if we don't speculate, we'll never know.

0:29:20 > 0:29:24- I rate this because it's quite rare. - This is inspirational talk.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28You don't have to decide now. Decide later. But for the audience at home,

0:29:28 > 0:29:33let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles's little caster.

0:29:33 > 0:29:35Over to you, Captain Kirk!

0:29:35 > 0:29:38It's a stylish object, but it is in dreadful condition.

0:29:38 > 0:29:44- The marks are almost completely illegible.- It has a great dent in it.

0:29:44 > 0:29:46- A huge dent in it. - A bullet hole, nearly!

0:29:46 > 0:29:49I'm afraid it's going to be 80 or £90.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52- Perhaps a shade more.- Oh, dear.

0:29:52 > 0:29:57- £185, Charles paid for that.- Lord! - It's supposed to be their bonus buy.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00You never know, they might not go with it.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03Their first item is the child's tea-set.

0:30:03 > 0:30:04Or even just a miniature.

0:30:04 > 0:30:08Smaller pieces of pottery and porcelain in the 19th century

0:30:08 > 0:30:13were made as decoration and as toys and adults had them, not just children.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15You're a mine of information, you are!

0:30:15 > 0:30:19- How much do you think it's worth? - It's a little incomplete and damaged.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21I suppose 30 to £40 because it is fairly early.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24They'll be delighted. £25 paid.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27- That's very good. - That's a great start. Moving on,

0:30:27 > 0:30:29we have the Georgian tea-set.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32- Yes.- To-whit they set great store.

0:30:32 > 0:30:34- Have they done the right thing?- No!

0:30:34 > 0:30:36Because it isn't a set.

0:30:36 > 0:30:41It was made in two different places, London and Sheffield, several years apart.

0:30:41 > 0:30:46- And it's in rather poor condition. - Oh. That's not so good, then.- No.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49- I think it'll make 200 to £300. - Good lord. £310 they paid.

0:30:49 > 0:30:54But their "Get out of jail free" card is this little tea caddy.

0:30:54 > 0:30:59Two-division tea caddy, clean as a whistle, but terribly...

0:30:59 > 0:31:02Boring and late is probably the way to summarise it!

0:31:02 > 0:31:06I didn't get that out in time! So that one on its own on a good day?

0:31:06 > 0:31:10- I think probably 30 to £40. - OK. £80 paid.

0:31:10 > 0:31:15- Too much.- They started off beautifully with the little tea-set, but it's gone downhill.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17Well, that's it for the reds.

0:31:17 > 0:31:21Now for the blues. Something completely different, the drinking vessel.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24- I suppose it could be a taster, could it?- Yes.

0:31:24 > 0:31:29I mean, the style and the shape of it is reminiscent of an early English wine taster.

0:31:29 > 0:31:34- But in fact, I think, at this period it's a sweetmeat dish or a coaster.- Yes.

0:31:34 > 0:31:36By Garrard & Co, a wonderful maker.

0:31:36 > 0:31:40- So top-notch?- Top-notch. - What do you think it's worth?

0:31:40 > 0:31:43I think, having said all that, it'll be 30 to £50.

0:31:43 > 0:31:45OK. £45 they paid.

0:31:45 > 0:31:48- Right.- That's pretty well in the frame. Next

0:31:48 > 0:31:50is their major investment

0:31:50 > 0:31:56in these plated entree-dish-shaped dishes with the bosses on the outside.

0:31:56 > 0:32:00The big question with this is, are they Liberty & Co, or are they not?

0:32:00 > 0:32:03I have grave doubts about their authenticity.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06They don't have any real quality to them.

0:32:06 > 0:32:12And I have stated that these are a pair of electro-plated nickel silver bowls.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15- So the buyers must make their own minds up.- Right.

0:32:15 > 0:32:19- And you simply mention that they're stamped Liberty & Co.- Yes.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22Without giving an opinion as to whether the Liberty & Co stamp

0:32:22 > 0:32:26is original or even Liberty's at all.

0:32:26 > 0:32:27That's perfectly true.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30They bear this mark and the number.

0:32:30 > 0:32:35But I am not attributing them to that illustrious retailer.

0:32:35 > 0:32:36I think we've got the message.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40In view of that, Tim, 80 to £120 is probably the right estimate.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42£250 paid.

0:32:42 > 0:32:46So that is another dark hole that's opened up, I'm afraid.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50Their final item is the Spirit of Ecstasy

0:32:50 > 0:32:52from the front of a Rolls-Royce.

0:32:52 > 0:32:56- Automobilia is incredibly popular at auction, isn't it?- Indeed it is.

0:32:56 > 0:33:02- When does it date from?- I think probably 1970s, even perhaps 1980s.

0:33:02 > 0:33:04- '70s, '80s.- Quite modern. - What's it worth?

0:33:04 > 0:33:11It's probably worth 100 to £150 as a second-hand object rather than a vintage collectable.

0:33:11 > 0:33:13OK. Fine. They paid £155.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16- Fair enough.- So that's not going to help them much.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19They'll need their bonus buy. Let's have a look at it.

0:33:20 > 0:33:25Joan and Emma, you gave the lovely David Harper £150.

0:33:25 > 0:33:28- Did you blow the lot? - I bought something every elegant

0:33:28 > 0:33:31for a pair of lovely elegant ladies.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34- So kind!- Ooh!- That's nice. Just what I needed!

0:33:34 > 0:33:38It's not for you! Not really! Try it.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41It's nine-carat solid gold.

0:33:41 > 0:33:451960s, 1970s, so it's got that retro kind of feel.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48It's nice and neat, the way it's set in there.

0:33:48 > 0:33:50- How much did you spend? - I'm not telling you yet.

0:33:50 > 0:33:55I'll tell you about it. It's solid gold. But gold has been flying recently.

0:33:55 > 0:33:57And it works. It does tick.

0:33:57 > 0:34:01- I'd quite like to bid for it! - Well, you can't!- I know!

0:34:01 > 0:34:03It's against the rules, Joanie.

0:34:03 > 0:34:09Look how excited these girls are. The prospect of having a bit of gold,

0:34:09 > 0:34:13- exquisitely crafted.- So how much do you think I paid for it?

0:34:13 > 0:34:14How much? Ooh,

0:34:14 > 0:34:16about 110.

0:34:16 > 0:34:21- You two are very good. Bang on £90. - You both have a good feeling about it?

0:34:21 > 0:34:22I do like it.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25Well done. You don't decide right now.

0:34:25 > 0:34:31Decide later. But for viewers, let's see what the auctioneer thinks about David Harper's little watch.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33Nigel, what were you doing in the 1970s?

0:34:33 > 0:34:37- Going to smart cocktail parties or...- Absolutely. - Or still in shorts?

0:34:37 > 0:34:41- Not quite!- That's what all the girls would have been wearing,

0:34:41 > 0:34:43very proudly in 1969.

0:34:43 > 0:34:47- Isn't it so typical of that period? - I think it's rather nice. Do you?

0:34:47 > 0:34:50I don't particularly like it and it isn't by a very good maker,

0:34:50 > 0:34:55but what we need to be aware of is the dramatic rise in recent months

0:34:55 > 0:34:57in the value of precious metals.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00If you carefully take the movement out of this watch,

0:35:00 > 0:35:05you've got very nearly 24 grams of nine-carat gold here.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07Gosh. Which you've done.

0:35:07 > 0:35:12I have done. It means you could get a couple of hundred pounds for this as scrap metal.

0:35:12 > 0:35:15Cunning old Harper, eh? He paid £90.

0:35:15 > 0:35:20- That was very astute. - That's absolutely brilliant, Nigel. Thank you very much.

0:35:20 > 0:35:22They don't call you the detective for nothing!

0:35:27 > 0:35:29The auction is underway.

0:35:29 > 0:35:31How are the boys feeling?

0:35:32 > 0:35:34- Very excited. Very confident. - Are you?

0:35:34 > 0:35:38- Same with you, Craig?- Definitely. We're going to clear up.

0:35:38 > 0:35:43You watched his lips? He said "We're going to clear up". Right.

0:35:43 > 0:35:46First up it the little child's pearlware tea-set.

0:35:46 > 0:35:50- Here it comes.- Lot 25. Staffordshire pearlware miniature coffee pot

0:35:50 > 0:35:54and tea bowls en-suite. £20 for this?

0:35:54 > 0:35:5620? 20 anywhere?

0:35:56 > 0:35:58£10? Ten I'm bid at the back.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01- 10. 15 for it?- Come on! I'm sure it's worth more.

0:36:01 > 0:36:0320. 25 anywhere?

0:36:03 > 0:36:08At £20 only and selling. All done at £20.

0:36:08 > 0:36:11- I really rated that set.- That's terrible.- Can't believe it.

0:36:11 > 0:36:16His estimate was 30 to 40. It's minus £5. Bad luck, chaps.

0:36:16 > 0:36:17Stand by for the tea-set.

0:36:17 > 0:36:22Lot 26. George III silver teapot, cream jug and sugar bowl.

0:36:22 > 0:36:23Bidding here of 120. 120.

0:36:23 > 0:36:2530. 40. 150.

0:36:25 > 0:36:29- 150. 60 for you. 170 I'll take, anywhere?- Getting there.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31170. 180. 190?

0:36:31 > 0:36:34- 190.- Keep going.- 200. And 20 here.

0:36:34 > 0:36:35240. 260?

0:36:35 > 0:36:40240 at the back of the room. And selling at 240.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42- Disappointing.- He was spot on.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45240. Minus 70 on that.

0:36:45 > 0:36:49- We're not doing too well here! - Here comes the tea caddy.- Lot 27.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52Rosewood tea caddy. 19th century.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54£20 for it? 20? £10?

0:36:54 > 0:36:56Ten I'm bid. 15 to you.

0:36:56 > 0:36:5815. 20, anywhere? £20.

0:36:58 > 0:37:0125. 30? £25

0:37:01 > 0:37:04on my right. Selling at 25.

0:37:05 > 0:37:0825. That's five short of 30. That's minus 55.

0:37:08 > 0:37:1160 plus 70 is minus 130.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14Here we are, lads. £130.

0:37:14 > 0:37:17- What are you going to do about the bonus buy?- No choice.

0:37:17 > 0:37:21- Yeah?- We're going to go for it. - Well, £130 might be a winning score.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23How much did you spend, Charles?

0:37:23 > 0:37:25Gents, it cost me 185.

0:37:25 > 0:37:28I like it. It's a novel object.

0:37:28 > 0:37:30It's up to you.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32- No. No, I don't think so, mate. - Got to!

0:37:32 > 0:37:34- I don't think it'll do it.- Sure?

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- I don't think it'll do it.- OK, mate.

0:37:37 > 0:37:41- It's coming up now.- He's not doing it.- No bonus buy. How exciting.

0:37:41 > 0:37:46Lot number 32 is the George V silver zoomorphic caster.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49- If it's wrong, it's your fault! - Let's push for it.

0:37:49 > 0:37:5230 I am bid. And 40. 50. £40 seated.

0:37:52 > 0:37:55- I don't believe it! Hanson, you're going...- 60?

0:37:55 > 0:37:57£50 only bid. Selling.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59£60. 70? £60.

0:37:59 > 0:38:02- I don't believe it.- All done at 60.

0:38:02 > 0:38:05£60 is minus £125. Right.

0:38:05 > 0:38:08You did well there, lads, not going with it. Bad luck, Charles.

0:38:08 > 0:38:12Overall, you are minus £130.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14- You did not go with the bonus buy. - Very wise!

0:38:14 > 0:38:17It could be a winning score. Don't talk to the blues!

0:38:25 > 0:38:28- So, girls, do you know how the reds got on?- No.- No idea?

0:38:28 > 0:38:32- We don't want you to know. You don't know either, David?- I know nothing!

0:38:32 > 0:38:34That's the best way to be, mate.

0:38:34 > 0:38:38Anyway, first up is going to be the drinking vessel. Estimate 30 to £50.

0:38:38 > 0:38:43- Here it comes.- Lot 48 is the commemorative silver dish

0:38:43 > 0:38:46made on the occasion of the coronation

0:38:46 > 0:38:47of Her Majesty the Queen.

0:38:47 > 0:38:51£20 I have for this. At 20. 25 anywhere?

0:38:51 > 0:38:5325. 30 I'll take. 30 I'm bid.

0:38:53 > 0:38:5835. 40, is it? At £35. 40. 45.

0:38:58 > 0:39:02- 45. 50.- You're in profit. - 55.- Come on.

0:39:02 > 0:39:04£55 at the back of the room.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09Look out. What's that, £60. You made £15 straight up.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11I think it was 55. 55.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14OK. There it goes.

0:39:14 > 0:39:16- Here come the bowls.- Lot 49.

0:39:16 > 0:39:19A pair of electroplate oval bowls.

0:39:19 > 0:39:24And £30. Only bid here at £30. 35 for them?

0:39:24 > 0:39:2735. 40? 40. 45. Five and 50.

0:39:27 > 0:39:3050. 55. 60. 60.

0:39:30 > 0:39:31Five. 70.

0:39:31 > 0:39:3370. 75.

0:39:33 > 0:39:3680. 85? 85.

0:39:36 > 0:39:3890. 95? 100?

0:39:38 > 0:39:42100. And ten? 110.

0:39:42 > 0:39:46- 120? At £110 on my left.- No!- 110.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49Unfair. At £110, it's minus 140.

0:39:49 > 0:39:53Which means overall, girls, you are minus 130.

0:39:53 > 0:39:56- Now, the Flying Lady.- Lot 50.

0:39:56 > 0:40:01The Rolls-Royce chromium-plated Spirit of Ecstasy radiator mascot.

0:40:01 > 0:40:04£20 I am bid. £20.

0:40:04 > 0:40:0625. 30, may I say? 30.

0:40:06 > 0:40:0835. 40.

0:40:08 > 0:40:1045? Nope? £40.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13Right at the back, selling for 40.

0:40:13 > 0:40:15- 45. 50.- 45?- 55.

0:40:15 > 0:40:1755. 60.

0:40:17 > 0:40:18£60. All done?

0:40:18 > 0:40:20- £60.- Oh, no!

0:40:20 > 0:40:22£60.

0:40:22 > 0:40:25I'm very sorry but that is minus £95.

0:40:25 > 0:40:28That is minus £225.

0:40:28 > 0:40:30This is getting tragic.

0:40:30 > 0:40:34Double-up day. We're doubling up the losses!

0:40:34 > 0:40:35That's it.

0:40:35 > 0:40:40So what about this bonus buy? Are we going to go with David's fab gold bracelet?

0:40:40 > 0:40:43- Absolutely.- You've made the decision.- Absolutely.

0:40:43 > 0:40:46- This auctioneer...- Sink or swim. - You're going with it?- Yes.

0:40:46 > 0:40:50This auctioneer is brilliant. He's taken the movement out, weighed the gold

0:40:50 > 0:40:54- and he thinks there's 150 to £200-worth of gold.- Excellent.

0:40:54 > 0:40:59Lot 55. The nine-carat gold ladies' wrist watch.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02£150 I am bid. At 150.

0:41:02 > 0:41:0460. 70. 180.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06180 I've got. 190, anybody?

0:41:06 > 0:41:08- 190.- Come on!- 200, is it?

0:41:08 > 0:41:10At 190. All done?

0:41:10 > 0:41:12- 200?- Yes.- No? At £190.

0:41:12 > 0:41:16- Well done, David Harper. - Well done, David.

0:41:16 > 0:41:17Thank you.

0:41:17 > 0:41:21You've won back £100 of profit on that.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23That's a pretty cool lot, isn't it?

0:41:23 > 0:41:25- He is a cool cat.- He is.

0:41:25 > 0:41:31Which reduces your losses overall, to minus 125.

0:41:31 > 0:41:34- Doesn't sound so bad. - Not when you say it quickly!

0:41:34 > 0:41:39You never know, that could be a winning score. Don't say a thing to those brutish men.

0:41:46 > 0:41:51- Been chatting, have we? Spilling the beans as to the winnings?- No idea.

0:41:51 > 0:41:53- No?- No idea.

0:41:53 > 0:41:57Well, I can reveal there is only a five pound note between the teams today.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59Five pounds only.

0:41:59 > 0:42:01Sorry. We've got it.

0:42:01 > 0:42:07The team that have marginally made bigger losses than the other team are the reds.

0:42:07 > 0:42:08Yay!

0:42:08 > 0:42:11- Well done, lads.- Have we won?

0:42:11 > 0:42:13- No.- Have we won?- No.- We lost.

0:42:13 > 0:42:15You've lost.

0:42:17 > 0:42:18Your face!
