0:00:04 > 0:00:06Somewhere round here are some hidden gems,
0:00:06 > 0:00:09and we've only got 60 minutes to find them.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11So let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:36 > 0:00:39We're in Norfolk, with a show full of sisters!
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Hit it!
0:00:40 > 0:00:44# Sisters are doing it for themselves #
0:00:44 > 0:00:47Well, with a bit of help from our experts!
0:00:47 > 0:00:51- THEY LAUGH - Paul gets desperate.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Just buy something, please!
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Jonathan makes his sisters a promise.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00If we don't make a profit on that, I...
0:01:00 > 0:01:03- Don't say "eat your hat". You haven't got one.- I haven't.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06- I'll eat my hanky. - THEY LAUGH
0:01:06 > 0:01:07Ooh, tasty!
0:01:07 > 0:01:09Let's go meet 'em.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12- Hello, girls.- Hello, Tim.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15My favourite sort of programme, this. Now, Jill,
0:01:15 > 0:01:17should we say sisters or Weather Girls?
0:01:17 > 0:01:21- Weather Girls is OK. - Why's that, then?
0:01:21 > 0:01:24Well, we've been known to sing a little on karaoke,
0:01:24 > 0:01:28and that Weather Girls song happens to be our favourite tune.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32How lovely! So, apart from singing, what do you collect?
0:01:32 > 0:01:36I collect cranberry glass and I also like small silver items,
0:01:36 > 0:01:40and I've just started a new collection of drinking glasses.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43To go with your karaoke drinking evenings in the pub?
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- Absolutely!- Lovely!
0:01:45 > 0:01:48But you dig this stuff up a bit, don't you?
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Yeah. My partner Paul was digging in the garden,
0:01:50 > 0:01:54and he happened to dig up an item which was jet black,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57and when we cleaned it up, it was a little silver bowl,
0:01:57 > 0:02:00so I was very chuffed with that, and it started the collection.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Now, Jean, tell us about your big bingo win.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Well, it was big to me. It might not be to other people.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10I usually go with some friends, and nobody turned up that night
0:02:10 > 0:02:12and I was on my own. And I won £1,400!
0:02:12 > 0:02:16- Did you really?!- So I sat there real calm and collected,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19nonchalant, as if it didn't mean anything,
0:02:19 > 0:02:21and afterwards I got up and went to the toilet
0:02:21 > 0:02:24and I went, "Yes!" THEY LAUGH
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- So you got your lucky side, yes? - I think so.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30How are you going to get on with this antiques game?
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- Well, I think we'll do OK.- Yeah.- Hmm.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Well, very good luck. - Thank you very much.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40Great. Now for the Blues - sisters-in-law this time,
0:02:40 > 0:02:43which is wonderful. What else have you got in common?
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Well, she's my best friend, really,
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- and we're both members of the WI. - Oh, really?- Yes.
0:02:49 > 0:02:54So, Gwen, on the WI, you must have some pretty good fundraising skills.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Oh, well, they're better now than they used to be, Tim.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59What sort of things do you get up to?
0:02:59 > 0:03:03Well, I think the worst thing that I was ever part of
0:03:03 > 0:03:08was actually in the grounds of the fire station.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10We decided to sell hot soup,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13but the burner we had heating the soup up
0:03:13 > 0:03:16managed to set fire to the tablecloth and the table,
0:03:16 > 0:03:20so we put the fire out by using the soup!
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- HE LAUGHS - Well, that sounds very profitable!
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- What did the fire brigade do? - Luckily they weren't there,
0:03:25 > 0:03:29but we lost a lot of money, because we had to recompense the church,
0:03:29 > 0:03:34because that was their trestle that we'd borrowed, so we actually lost money.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36You could've burned down the fire station.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39That would've been a scream, wouldn't it?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Good. Um, so, Sal,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44you had a bit of a dramatic career change when you were younger.
0:03:44 > 0:03:48Yes. I started off life in Barclays Bank,
0:03:48 > 0:03:50and after I had the children,
0:03:50 > 0:03:53a job became available on the local farm,
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- and, er, I spent 20 years there. - Oh, did you?
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Till I was made redundant. - You'll be quite tough, then.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Oh, yes.
0:04:01 > 0:04:06Quite a good idea, to change out of banking into gardening,
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- I would say.- Yes. - You were green before your time.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11- That's right, yes.- Lovely!
0:04:11 > 0:04:14I think you'll do terribly well on this programme.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Now, there's £300 apiece. Here we go. There's your £300.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21300 smackers. £300. You know the rules. Your experts await.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25And off you go, and very, very, very good luck.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29So, it's the Weather Girls versus the WI.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Should be fun!
0:04:31 > 0:04:33# It's raining men
0:04:33 > 0:04:35# Hallelujah...
0:04:35 > 0:04:38And in today's shower, we've got Paul Laidlaw...
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- Come on, let's do it!- OK.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44..and Jonathan Pratt.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Shall we just have a quick wander down there
0:04:47 > 0:04:49and just see if anything catches our eyes?
0:04:49 > 0:04:51# It's raining men #
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Get stuck in, boys and girls!
0:04:53 > 0:04:57Wow, look! WI dish!
0:04:57 > 0:04:59- £4!- £4?
0:04:59 > 0:05:03I think you may have to come back when we've finished shopping.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09That's a little Edwardian carriage clock.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- That is all right, yes. - Unusual shape, see?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16It's not a carriage clock. It's a carriage timepiece.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19And they've got a platform cylinder escapement,
0:05:19 > 0:05:23but nonetheless it's going to be a French movement, probably,
0:05:23 > 0:05:27or Swiss. The back doesn't look the right age, though.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29No. It looked quite shiny.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32- How much is that?- 110.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36- 110.- I could do 100 on that.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- It might be, at 100... - Cos they always have this.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42- That's for the movement. - It's a different shape.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44I'm slightly confused about that.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48- It's in its box and everything. - Very strange shape.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50I haven't seen one that shape before.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Can you do any better than that?
0:05:53 > 0:05:54Er...
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- 90.- And that's it?- 90.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00The case has that worn, battered feel about it.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03It's still intact, but it has that nice roughed-up look
0:06:03 > 0:06:06which looks the part on the mantelpiece, has that vintage feel.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08That's what's important. It's also going,
0:06:08 > 0:06:11- so you can tell the time with it. - I really like it.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14- We like the clock. - That's, you know...
0:06:14 > 0:06:16- Do you like it?- Yes.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- We both like it. - That was a very positive "yes"!
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- "Yes!"- Yes! - OK. We'll take the clock.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- OK.- Thanks very much. - You're welcome.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Job done. That's one out the way. - Thank you.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29'"Out the way"? Sorry, viewers. He's loving it really.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32'£90, and one down.'
0:06:33 > 0:06:35- Silver, copper.- Yeah. No signing.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39- You've had 20 minutes, guys! - Oh! 20 minutes!
0:06:39 > 0:06:4320 minutes, and we're close, but close isn't good enough!
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Right!
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- 'Come on, Paul. You can do it.' - A casket.
0:06:48 > 0:06:53That doesn't live up to my expectations when I see it.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55How do you feel about the spinning wheel?
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Have a wee look at that.- Gosh!
0:07:01 > 0:07:04- OK.- How old will it be, Paul?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Er, it will be a Victorian affair, a 19th-century affair.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Now, if you have a love of treen... - Yeah.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13..the rustic working of wood, in this instance...
0:07:13 > 0:07:17Look at the elements here! All these little turned spindles,
0:07:17 > 0:07:21the work that went into producing each component
0:07:21 > 0:07:24and then marrying them to make what's essentially a tool,
0:07:24 > 0:07:27- but in truth, isn't that a piece of furniture?- It is.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32It's got some insect damage. An old repair I'm comfortable with.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36That's fair enough. That's a joint that's opened. A spindle missing.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40We need to ask the guy... It would be nice if that was sitting in a box.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42I think he said he'd got a spare spindle.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- I mean, it is what it is! - What price, Paul?
0:07:45 > 0:07:48- Sitting at 65 at the moment. - What do you think it would...
0:07:48 > 0:07:52They're unpredictable. A good one's a few hundred pounds.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54But they're always unpredictable.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57But in that state, what do you think would be the...
0:07:59 > 0:08:01It's going to be worth £40 to £80.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- You need to buy it for 40 or less. - So if we can get it for 40...
0:08:04 > 0:08:08It may be hard work, but if you bat your eyelids at the guy,
0:08:08 > 0:08:10cry, beg...
0:08:10 > 0:08:12'Or maybe just ask for his best price!
0:08:12 > 0:08:14'Or is that just too old fashioned?'
0:08:14 > 0:08:18- Your wheel - have you got the spindle?- I have somewhere.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- I'll, er... - "Somewhere"'s not good enough!
0:08:21 > 0:08:23PAUL LAUGHS We need it!
0:08:23 > 0:08:26We'll find it, I promise.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28So, what would your best price be on that?
0:08:28 > 0:08:31- The absolute bottom price? - I can't flutter my eyelids.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33THEY LAUGH
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- I can!- Go on, then. Right! £50.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Nice round figure. Well, for me it is.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41PAUL LAUGHS Um...
0:08:41 > 0:08:43- I was thinking more 40.- £40.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Please. - That doesn't really give me...
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- I know, but it might not go for -- 45.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- 45.- No...
0:08:51 > 0:08:53- It's a gamble.- Oh, please!
0:08:53 > 0:08:5540. Go on. Please.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Oh, £40. There you go.- Oh, bless!
0:08:58 > 0:09:00THEY LAUGH
0:09:00 > 0:09:02'Our sisters have had a flutter.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05'A third off, and they want the spindle!
0:09:05 > 0:09:06'Honestly!'
0:09:06 > 0:09:09If it had a lot of decoration on it...
0:09:09 > 0:09:11The prices are a little bit...
0:09:11 > 0:09:14We've taken 30 minutes, so you've got half an hour to go.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18I quite like the pressure now. We now need to start thinking.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21We can do this. We can do this.
0:09:22 > 0:09:28- A big Murano glass dish for £15. - Yeah, I quite like that.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35You know, um... Presumably it says Murano...
0:09:35 > 0:09:38- Maybe it doesn't. - Sometimes that's not marked, is it?
0:09:38 > 0:09:40It would have had a sticker, perhaps.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- But it's a very usable bowl. - That's beautiful, that is.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- I would use that. - He's got that price on there.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48He says it was 29 for something else.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52- If we could get it for about 12... - You might get it for 12 quid.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I would say you'd double your money on that.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57OK, it is a bit scratched.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01- Yeah. - We were saying not 20th century...
0:10:01 > 0:10:03- But for that...- Style sells.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05It does, yeah.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- I'll hold it up here and smile. - All right.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09'Mmm, that should help, Jonathan!'
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Come down a bit on that one?
0:10:12 > 0:10:15There's a lot of head-shaking going on down there.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17'Maybe a bigger smile, then?'
0:10:17 > 0:10:21He's not happy to come down, cos he's obviously reduced it.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- OK. So it's 15 or nothing. - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27What do you reckon? Bit of Murano glass...
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- We can't lose a lot of money, can we? It's only 15.- Exactly.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33This will make up for, perhaps, our doubts on -
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- We both quite like it. - I think so, yes.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37- OK.- We'll have it.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41'So, a chunk of glass for a massive £15.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43'Big spenders? Not!
0:10:44 > 0:10:47'Right, Jill and Jean. You still need two.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50'They don't count. Cute, though. Woof!'
0:10:50 > 0:10:52- Hello, there.- Hello!
0:10:52 > 0:10:55There's Britannia again. I like these letter clips.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58I think they're lovely objects. So elegant!
0:10:58 > 0:11:02No tremendous substance in them. That's very utilitarian.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04It's an office piece. What's this little affair here?
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- Is it a little bank or inkwell? - Inkwell.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- World War inkwell.- Oh, that's cute!
0:11:10 > 0:11:13You've got a little French tank there.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16That's got Reims on. Souvenir of Reims!
0:11:16 > 0:11:20So, in the 1920s, there was quite an interest in touring the battlefields
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- of France and Flanders. - That's right.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24You'll see no end of trench art here today.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Very little of it was made in the trenches.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Most of it was made to service the tourist trade in the 1920s,
0:11:30 > 0:11:34and this was one of those pieces, and that's a souvenir of Reims.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36I think it's a charming little piece.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- What was the price on there? - 45.- 45...
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- I have very little room to move on that, I'm afraid.- OK.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Can you see the appeal, that there are people out there for such?
0:11:45 > 0:11:49I do, but it depends on whether they're going to be there at the auction.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52I mean, it's... Can you help us on that?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55I know you said there wasn't much, but if it came push to shove
0:11:55 > 0:11:59- and the heavens open... - Could you do it for under 40?
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- Not 35?- 38.
0:12:01 > 0:12:07Let's not quibble over £3. Can we make it that round number at 35?
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- Do a deal at 35.- It's your...
0:12:11 > 0:12:13If you don't want it, Jill, don't go for it.
0:12:13 > 0:12:18I'm sure that we'll see something. But I think it might be worth a punt.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Time's cracking on!
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- Can we...- Do you think it would be worth a go?
0:12:24 > 0:12:27I think Paul does. I think we have to do what Paul...
0:12:27 > 0:12:29'Take the hint, girls!'
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- What do you reckon? - Do buy something, please!
0:12:32 > 0:12:34- Do it!- Let's do it.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- We'll have it, please, at 35. - Thanks very much.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40- You're welcome.- Thank you, sir. Thank you very much.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42- Thanks a lot.- Number two!
0:12:42 > 0:12:45'Paul, you're so subtle!
0:12:45 > 0:12:48'They've got "Reims" of cash left.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50'"Reims"! Get it?'
0:12:58 > 0:13:01That's a little teapot. £50...
0:13:01 > 0:13:04But the way it's made, it's very, very finely potted.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08- People collect pearlware, though, don't they?- Oh, yeah.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12- We can come back. - Shall we leave that?- Yeah.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- Do you like that? - I did! I saw it before.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18If we can't find anything else, that may be it.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21'Good plan, Sally!'
0:13:28 > 0:13:32- Do you like it?- I do, actually. I think that's very attractive.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34- OK. So, we expect it to be - - Will it be gold?
0:13:34 > 0:13:38Nine-carat gold, I've no doubt. Put that down there.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41It's a pretty little brooch. Is it expensive?
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Not really, no. It's 35.- £35.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46In an auction environment, in all honesty,
0:13:46 > 0:13:49that's at the high end of my estimate.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51- It doesn't grab you.- It's not, "Wow!"
0:13:51 > 0:13:55You'll buy a brooch like that for 20 to 30 any day of the week.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- It's something we can... - Come back to, yeah?- Yeah.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02'Yeah. "Brooch" that later.'
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Ladies?- Yes?- A piece of furniture.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- Ah!- OK?
0:14:16 > 0:14:19It is made of... Crikey, this is the hard bit for me.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22- How much time have we got left? - Seven minutes.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23So I don't want to chat for too long!
0:14:23 > 0:14:26This is, um... It's either walnut or mahogany.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29It's a kind of faded look. I think it's walnut.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33It's basically Victorian. Moulded leg like this,
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- which is typically about 1870... - Has somebody stripped that down?
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- Looks a bit faded, and - - The top split.
0:14:39 > 0:14:43They used to stain these with bull's blood to make it look like mahogany.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47- Ah!- So it might have been faded, and they wanted to darken it up.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52There's a split in the top where it's seasoned, but it hasn't broken all the way through.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56- It's heavy.- It's nicely turned. - How much do you think the guy wants,
0:14:56 > 0:14:59bearing in mind the prices of the other furniture? How much do you think?
0:14:59 > 0:15:03I mean, it's a bit scruffy, but... What do you think?
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- 25?- 35?- Oh, thank you!
0:15:06 > 0:15:09"£20", he says. If you got that for 15 quid,
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- you'd make a profit on it. - I think so.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- I think it would be a good deal. - If you can get it for that.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- I mean, I quite like it. I mean... - Take 15?
0:15:18 > 0:15:20DEALER REPLIES OFF-MIC
0:15:20 > 0:15:23It would need a lot of work doing to it.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26It needs a little bit of a clean, and there's a crack in the top.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- Can we say at the middle? - That's damaged!- 18?
0:15:29 > 0:15:32It's not quite in the middle. It's more in your favour on that side.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Shall we do it for £18?- Yeah, go on. - Or would you like the teapot?
0:15:36 > 0:15:38We're not going to lose much on it, are we?
0:15:38 > 0:15:42- We won't lose anything on it. - That's pretty sturdy.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47- Yeah.- That's not wobbly or flimsy. - Yes, we'll have it! We'll have it.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49If we don't make a profit on that,
0:15:49 > 0:15:52- I...- Don't say "eat your hat". You haven't got one.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55I haven't really got a hat, have I? I'll eat my hanky.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59- Ugh, no. I wouldn't want to do that. - THEY LAUGH
0:15:59 > 0:16:02'Nice! With or without the hanky-panky,
0:16:02 > 0:16:04'Gwen and Sally are done.'
0:16:07 > 0:16:09- No.- No tools.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- No.- It's not real exciting.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16'"Bearly" any time left, girls.'
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Ten minutes, folks. Ten minutes.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24170. It needs to be...
0:16:24 > 0:16:27- A lot cheaper. - It needs to be half that.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33We're really running out of time. Five, six minutes.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35- I know.- Are we buying something here and now?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Are we going to take a plunge? We're in for a penny, we're going for it?
0:16:39 > 0:16:43- Because we're not going back.- Yes. - I'm going to look at this stall.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46Let's... We've three minutes.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48'Yeah! I love a good team talk.'
0:16:49 > 0:16:53- What do you think, Jill? A lamp. - The one with the milk glass is nice.
0:16:53 > 0:16:58Victorian. Globe's a replacement. You pay more for a fabulous globe.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01- I like the milk glass. - I like the bottom bit.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04And this conical cast-iron base. Is there a price on that?
0:17:04 > 0:17:05I got 68 on that.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09- Could it be...- What's your best? - 55 would be my best.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- 55.- Would you take 50 for it?
0:17:12 > 0:17:15- Please!- Help them out. We're a bit close to the edge here.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18- Go on, then! - Thank you!- Thank you very much.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- Thanks ever so much. Thank you. - Thank you!
0:17:21 > 0:17:24We've literally no time left, I suspect.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26- Brilliant!- Thanks very much.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- Talk about close call! - Oh, man alive!
0:17:29 > 0:17:31- Oh, wow, wow!- Brilliant!
0:17:31 > 0:17:35- THEY LAUGH - Jill, I tell you, I'm beat!
0:17:35 > 0:17:38'Pretty tired and emotional myself!
0:17:38 > 0:17:41'But our sister act have done it, and here's how.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44'Jill's eyelids batted them the first buy,
0:17:44 > 0:17:48'a spinning wheel for £40. And with a bit of persuasion,
0:17:48 > 0:17:51'the sisters went with Paul's novelty inkwell.
0:17:53 > 0:17:58'And with seconds to spare, this lamp was snapped up for 50.'
0:18:01 > 0:18:04- Now, you spent £125, yes? - We have.- Yes.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07I would like, please, £175 of leftover lolly.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11That's great. Thank you very much. Jeanie, which is your favourite bit?
0:18:11 > 0:18:16Um... I think my favourite bit is the last item, actually, our lamp.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19- Your lamp. And what about you, Jill? - Yeah, I agree.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23- I really liked the lamp. I did. - Will that make the most profit?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- No.- No.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27What's going to make the most profit?
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- I think that little inkwell may. - I think the inkwell will.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Every time you mention the inkwell, you look lovingly at Paul.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36THEY LAUGH
0:18:37 > 0:18:40There you go. £175. That's a good old wodge, isn't it?
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- That's a good one. - You've had a great time up till now?
0:18:43 > 0:18:47- Fantastic.- Brilliant.- That's lovely, and good on you. Good luck, Paul,
0:18:47 > 0:18:51with your search for the bonus buy. Why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought, eh?
0:18:51 > 0:18:56Gwen and Sally's first find was the timepiece in a box, for 90.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00The Murano glass, bought for 15.
0:19:04 > 0:19:08And they splashed out on this antique table.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10£18 paid.
0:19:12 > 0:19:15Well, that's pretty good. That means we come in for some leftover lolly.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19- So, how much did you spend overall? - £123.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- On all three?- On all three. - 123. That's not much.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25So, does that mean I get 177 back?
0:19:25 > 0:19:29- Well, you do, yes. - 177. Is that 177?- Yes.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31There we go. Thank you very much. That's quite a lot.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- That's a lot of money. - Which is your favourite piece?
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Um...
0:19:37 > 0:19:41- I think I like the Murano glass. - Is that your favourite piece?
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- I think the same with me. - Yes? You're pleased with that?
0:19:44 > 0:19:46- I think that was a bargain. - All right.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50- But is it your favourite piece? - Yes, I think so.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- She's the treasurer. - I'm the treasurer.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Which piece is going to bring the biggest money, then?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57I think...
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- It might be that table. - It might be that table.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- Oh, lovely.- Because, er... - Don't be so disparaging!
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- I know!- It's the certainty and positiveness of it all!
0:20:07 > 0:20:11I think you've punched them into a state of complete submission.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- It took an hour. - It took an hour, yeah.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- He's had his work cut out. - You did take it almost to the line.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20Good luck, girls. Meanwhile, I'm heading off
0:20:20 > 0:20:23to the most glorious house in Cambridgeshire,
0:20:23 > 0:20:26which you're going to adore. It's called Peckover House, actually.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37The North Brink here in Wisbech
0:20:37 > 0:20:40has been home to the movers and shakers
0:20:40 > 0:20:44of this Cambridgeshire town for centuries.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47And one particular family, the Peckovers,
0:20:47 > 0:20:50who were bankers and had made a huge fortune,
0:20:50 > 0:20:53lived here at Peckover House.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57But we're not here to actually have a look at the house at all today,
0:20:57 > 0:20:59but what lies beyond it.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06Wow!
0:21:13 > 0:21:16The family created this garden in the early 19th century.
0:21:23 > 0:21:28Many of the unusual trees and shrubs were planted by the Peckovers
0:21:28 > 0:21:30nearly 200 years ago.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39The garden is a series of adjoining areas or rooms,
0:21:39 > 0:21:43each furnished so the Peckover family could enjoy it
0:21:43 > 0:21:45all the year round.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47This is the rustic summerhouse.
0:21:47 > 0:21:52The rustic look deliberately created by the Victorians,
0:21:52 > 0:21:55using bark-covered timbers,
0:21:55 > 0:21:58so that this structure sits harmoniously
0:21:58 > 0:22:03overlooking these quintessentially Victorian trees,
0:22:03 > 0:22:06monkey puzzle and the like.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08And what do we have here?
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Another Victorian gardener's favourite,
0:22:11 > 0:22:13a wee trug,
0:22:13 > 0:22:18effectively a basket that's been made out of sweet chestnut
0:22:18 > 0:22:23with slivers of willow that have been cut, soaked in water
0:22:23 > 0:22:28and then bent into this traditional trug boat-type shape.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31What's fun about this thing is
0:22:31 > 0:22:34that it's been made into a combination trug
0:22:34 > 0:22:39and walking stick, and particularly special for Peckover House
0:22:39 > 0:22:42is this little inscription from the owner,
0:22:42 > 0:22:46Alexandrina Peckover, 1895.
0:22:46 > 0:22:50And, of course, it was Alexandrina who donated the place
0:22:50 > 0:22:54to the National Trust. Trug on!
0:23:01 > 0:23:03How charming is this?
0:23:03 > 0:23:05The pets' cemetery,
0:23:05 > 0:23:09poor little pussies from the 18th to the 20th century.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24And just in case there's the odd shower,
0:23:24 > 0:23:28or it's baking hot and you want to take refuge,
0:23:28 > 0:23:30how about this?
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Called the Victorian summerhouse,
0:23:32 > 0:23:36and with all this green lattice and the shaped outline,
0:23:36 > 0:23:39I suppose dating from the 1840s.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45Peacock hedge.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47HE MAKES SQUAWKING SOUND
0:23:47 > 0:23:52'Let me introduce you to someone who knows this garden inside out.'
0:23:52 > 0:23:55So, Alison, how long have you been working here at Peckover?
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- I've been working here for 13 years now.- Have you?
0:23:58 > 0:24:01- Yes.- It's a great garden, isn't it? - It's fantastic.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04I really enjoy my job here. It's quite a small garden,
0:24:04 > 0:24:07only about two acres, but it's got so much jam-packed into it.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10Which is your favourite bit of the garden?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12A place very dear to my heart is the orangery.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16It's one of my favourite parts because it houses our very old orange trees.
0:24:16 > 0:24:19- Can we have a look? - Yes, certainly.- Good.
0:24:19 > 0:24:20Thanks.
0:24:24 > 0:24:30- So here are the famous orange trees! - Yes. Three very old orange trees.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33- How old are they? - We are led to believe
0:24:33 > 0:24:37that they're 300 years old, but they haven't been here that long.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40The Peckovers bought them over 100 years ago from a local auction,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43and the bill of sale then said they were over 200 years old,
0:24:43 > 0:24:46so that makes them over 300 years old now.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49- Gosh! They look in very good heart. - They are.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53They're fruiting every year. We have a good crop off them.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56It's a wonderful thing to see. Thank you very much.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- Thank you for showing me that. Good luck.- Thank you.- Bye.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Isn't that lovely?
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Of course the big question today is,
0:25:05 > 0:25:08how fruitful and productive are our teams going to be
0:25:08 > 0:25:10over at the auction?
0:25:28 > 0:25:32Well, we've had a serious trot an hour southwards, roughly,
0:25:32 > 0:25:36from Norwich to Campsea Ashe in Suffolk,
0:25:36 > 0:25:40to be at Abbotts saleroom with Geoffrey Barfoot, our auctioneer.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- Good morning.- Good morning! - Excellent to be here.
0:25:43 > 0:25:47- Now, Jill and Jean have gone with this spinning wheel.- Yeah.
0:25:47 > 0:25:52- It had a problem, though, because you can see it's missing -- A spoke.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56I don't think that's going to make a tremendous difference to the value.
0:25:56 > 0:26:00Oh, good. The stallholder said he'd try and find it,
0:26:00 > 0:26:04- but he's clearly failed to. - It's snapped off and got lost
0:26:04 > 0:26:07- somewhere along the line. - They are quite delicate things,
0:26:07 > 0:26:11when you think of all these moving parts whizzing round
0:26:11 > 0:26:13in the 18th century.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17Quite elaborate, but lots of worm and problems with it.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20What do you think it's worth, Geoffrey?
0:26:20 > 0:26:24I think just to stand in the corner and look pretty, £40 to £60.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26OK. £40 they paid, so that's not too bad.
0:26:26 > 0:26:28- I think that's in line, yeah.- Good.
0:26:28 > 0:26:33Next is the First World War inkwell, which is a pretty wacky object.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36- It is, isn't it? It's a souvenir item.- Yes.
0:26:36 > 0:26:41We come across all sorts of things made up by people in the trenches,
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- trench art...- But that's not. - ..using shells and stuff like that.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48But this has been made in a factory in France
0:26:48 > 0:26:52after the First World War, sort of 1920s, something like that.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55In a strange way, it's sort of celebrating it.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58But I guess interesting today for anybody who collects inkwells,
0:26:58 > 0:27:01- and people do collect inkwells, don't they?- Yeah.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05- Do you like it? - Yes, I do, in a quirky sort of way.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- Hmm. How much do you like it? - Not a great deal.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11- Ah!- I think probably £20, £30.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14- You don't like it enough.- No. - THEY LAUGH
0:27:14 > 0:27:16- £35, they paid.- Right, right.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19- But it might make it, mightn't it? - It's got a chance
0:27:19 > 0:27:23- with a good wind behind it.- What's your market like in these parts
0:27:23 > 0:27:26- for Victorian oil lamps? - Usually quite good,
0:27:26 > 0:27:29but that example is a bit plain.
0:27:29 > 0:27:35- Just a plain white opaque reservoir. - You like them fancy in these parts?
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Coloured shades, coloured reservoirs,
0:27:37 > 0:27:40- so that one is a bit plain. - How much?
0:27:40 > 0:27:42- 40 to 60.- £50 paid.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- Right.- I reckon that this team are pretty well spot-on
0:27:46 > 0:27:49with everything they bought, and won't need their bonus buy,
0:27:49 > 0:27:51but let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:27:51 > 0:27:56So, girls, you spent £125. You gave Paul Laidlaw £175
0:27:56 > 0:27:59of leftover lolly. What did you spend it on, Paul?
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Take a look at these. See what you think.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04- Ooh!- Oh, my God!
0:28:04 > 0:28:07- Lot of metal for your money.- Gosh!
0:28:07 > 0:28:10What's your kneejerk reaction? And don't humour me here,
0:28:10 > 0:28:13because I have an opinion on these that may surprise you.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15- Is it spelter?- It is.- I like them.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18- You like?- I do! - I think others will, too.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20There's an appeal in these. Not to my taste.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24They're not fine things, but they are antiques,
0:28:24 > 0:28:28late 19th century. You've got the medium correct - bronzed spelter.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32They are reproductions of fine art, OK?
0:28:32 > 0:28:36They're commonly called Marly horses.
0:28:36 > 0:28:41They are reproductions of full-blown bronzes
0:28:41 > 0:28:45commissioned by Louis XIV for his palace at Marly,
0:28:45 > 0:28:51- sculpted by Guillaume Coustou... - Coustou.- ..Coustou,
0:28:51 > 0:28:54and modelled after Graeco-Roman versions,
0:28:54 > 0:28:59and they represent man taming the brute beast,
0:28:59 > 0:29:03brute nature. So there's a pedigree, there's a heritage here.
0:29:03 > 0:29:07But we're not interested in that. We're interested in shekels - pounds, shillings and pence.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10- How much did you spend? - This is the nitty-gritty.
0:29:10 > 0:29:15These didn't cost me a lot of money. They cost me £35.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17- You're joking! - Yeah. That's a good reaction.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20I think that is going to be the reaction of most people.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23I'm not taking them home. They're not me.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27But they're undeniably good furnishing, period pieces,
0:29:27 > 0:29:30- and they have a price tag. - Are we going to make a profit?
0:29:30 > 0:29:32- Yeah.- Excellent.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34- Fantastic.- That is really good.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37- Really pleased.- Very happy. - Excellent. So am I, then.- Spot-on!
0:29:37 > 0:29:40So, do you think you'll be picking them?
0:29:40 > 0:29:43We'll see how our others go. THEY LAUGH
0:29:43 > 0:29:46But I think you might be on a winner there.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48- Yeah. That's quite exciting. - Lovely.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51No more excited than we are. Anyway, for the viewers at home,
0:29:51 > 0:29:55let's find out if the auctioneer finds them equally exciting.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Here we go, look. Cantering in.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04- How do you rate those? - Little bit of damage, I've noticed,
0:30:04 > 0:30:08on the leg there. It's been soldered back on at some time.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11- Very brittle. - Very brittle. It's a soft metal.
0:30:12 > 0:30:16- How much, Geoffrey, do you think? - Perhaps £40 to £60.- OK, fine.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18- Paul paid £35.- Right. Right.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20- And he's very canny.- Yeah.
0:30:20 > 0:30:25Right. That is it for the Reds. Shove him next door to his mate.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29And now for the Blues, Gwen and Sally.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32They went with the little carriage timepiece, perfectly clean,
0:30:32 > 0:30:36perfectly straightforward. What do you think that's worth?
0:30:37 > 0:30:42Just a basic timepiece, so it doesn't strike or chime or anything.
0:30:42 > 0:30:46- Some cracking on the dial. - Condition's not brilliant, then.
0:30:46 > 0:30:51The carrying case is a bit scuffed and battered, as they often are.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53- Yeah.- 30 to 50?- £90 paid.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55That could be a bit of a struggle.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59The shallow Murano glass bowl, that's pretty straightforward.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- Good chunky piece.- Mm.
0:31:02 > 0:31:06But obviously a bit modern for an antique sale.
0:31:06 > 0:31:10- What do you think? 1970s, 1980s? - Yes. I would think '70s, isn't it?
0:31:10 > 0:31:14- I'd put it in at 20 to 40. - £15 is what they paid.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17So they've done well with that one. And the finale
0:31:17 > 0:31:19is that little tripod table on the end.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- How do you rate that? - Very faded, very bleached out.
0:31:22 > 0:31:27Got quite a nice column and base, but nasty split across the top.
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Generally rather tired.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31Like me.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34- I've got that in at 40 to 60 again. - Have you?- Yeah.
0:31:34 > 0:31:38They'll be pleased with that, because they only paid £18.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40- I think there's a profit there. - Good!- Yeah.
0:31:40 > 0:31:44That's marvellous. All in all, then, what they lose on the clock
0:31:44 > 0:31:47they make up on the table, dee-da, dee-da.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50But let's go and have a look at their bonus buy anyway.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55Now, Gwen and Sally, you spent £123. You gave Jonathan £177.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57What did you spend it on, Jonathan?
0:31:57 > 0:32:00You know what I'm like. I like to spend the money if I'm given it,
0:32:00 > 0:32:03- so I...- Not all of it!
0:32:03 > 0:32:07- Oh, that's my little teapot! - Yes!- Oh, you cheeky thing!
0:32:07 > 0:32:11Yeah. I... It was one of those things. When you -
0:32:11 > 0:32:14- What's going on here, please? - I picked it up first,
0:32:14 > 0:32:18before even Jonathan saw it. I saw that and loved it.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21The guy had it listed as late 19th century,
0:32:21 > 0:32:23and it's not. It's quite obviously earlier.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27And I'm thinking, "Well, he's asking £65 for it,"
0:32:27 > 0:32:30and so I thought, well, you know, "I'll go back and see what"...
0:32:30 > 0:32:33And, um, he took £40 for it.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36- Oh, brilliant!- OK. It's English,
0:32:36 > 0:32:38late 18th century, about 1780.
0:32:38 > 0:32:43It's in that tradition of English porcelain, copying the Chinese.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46I'd love it to be from Lowestoft. That's where we are locally.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50It's quite possibly Liverpool or Caughley or somewhere like that.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54It's unmarked, but it has that lovely blue tinge of the glaze.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57- The downside is, the handle's been off.- Yes.
0:32:57 > 0:33:01- There's been some restoration. - But if it's 200-and-odd years old,
0:33:01 > 0:33:05- my handle might be off!- Some would say you're off your trolley.
0:33:05 > 0:33:07- THEY LAUGH - But don't worry about it.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10- But we love it. We love it. - It's a child's teapot.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13I reckon there's a healthy profit in it.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15- I'd like to see it make £100. - Oh, brilliant!
0:33:15 > 0:33:17I think it has every chance of doing that.
0:33:17 > 0:33:22You don't have to decide right now. You can decide after the sale of the first three items.
0:33:22 > 0:33:26But for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks
0:33:26 > 0:33:28about Jonathan's little pot.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31Well, Geoffrey, they say that size doesn't matter.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33- Nice little teapot.- Over to you.
0:33:33 > 0:33:36I've given it a good look. It has had some restoration.
0:33:36 > 0:33:40Um, the rim has been rebuilt. If you...
0:33:41 > 0:33:45..just put your tooth to it, it feels soft to the touch,
0:33:45 > 0:33:49so one's assuming that originally it's a doll's tea set.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51But nicely decorated.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54- I'd put it in at 80 to 120. - Oh, well, they'll be delighted.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57- That's great. Exciting stuff, eh? - We wait and see.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59We certainly do. Thank you very much.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04180. 190.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06200. 220.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08240. 260.
0:34:08 > 0:34:12280 to Nigel. Sell at 280.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- Are you happy?- Yes, we're happy. - Perfectly confident?
0:34:17 > 0:34:20- Yes.- Ably supported by Mr Laidlaw, which is great.
0:34:20 > 0:34:24Your first lot up is the spinning wheel, estimate £40 to £60.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26- £40 paid, and here it comes.- OK.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Antique turned spinning wheel there.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33How do you see that one, then? Put me in at £50 to start.
0:34:33 > 0:34:3650. Well, 30 to go, then, surely. Anyone start me? 30?
0:34:36 > 0:34:39- Oh, please, please! - 20, then. Up we go, then.
0:34:39 > 0:34:43Come along, do. £20 I'm bid. On the maiden bid at 20.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Five's in the middle. At 25.
0:34:45 > 0:34:4630. At 30.
0:34:46 > 0:34:50- Five. 35. - Go on! One more, one more, one more.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53Cheap lot. 40 bid now on the right-hand side.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56- At 40 I'm bid over here. - You've wiped your face.
0:34:56 > 0:34:58Absolutely.
0:34:58 > 0:35:03At £40. It's on the right here at 40. And I sell away, then, at £40.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07- Perfect. That's a relief. - Yeah, it is, actually.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09- That's a big relief. - Yeah. Pleased with that.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11OK!
0:35:11 > 0:35:13Now the inkwell.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17One novelty inkwell there in the form of a First World War tank
0:35:17 > 0:35:20attacking the gunning placement. Interesting lot.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23How do you see that one, then? Put me in at £40.
0:35:23 > 0:35:2720 to go, then, surely. Anyone start me at 20? 20 in the front row.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29On the maiden bid, straight in at 20.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31At 20. Five at the back. At 25.
0:35:31 > 0:35:3330. Five.
0:35:33 > 0:35:3640. Five.
0:35:36 > 0:35:4045 is in front, the wardrobe. At 45. Any other bids?
0:35:40 > 0:35:44At £45. It's in front, the wardrobe, at 45. All done and dusted, then,
0:35:44 > 0:35:47- at 45...- £45.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50That is plus £10. Very good, team.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53Now the oil lamp.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57The Victorian oil lamp. There we are. Nice Victorian oil lamp.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59How do you see that one, then? Put me in at £50.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03Well, 30 to start, then, surely. Nice little oil lamp. Start me 30.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06Well, 20 and up we go, then. Come along, do.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08£20 I am bid, sir. Thank you. At 20.
0:36:08 > 0:36:12At £20 I'm bid. An opening bid of 20. Do I see a five anywhere?
0:36:12 > 0:36:16- At 25.- Oh, no!
0:36:16 > 0:36:1825's in the middle now. At 25. 30 with Basil.
0:36:18 > 0:36:22At 30. He knows we've got some power cuts coming.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26- Yes, come on. Sell it!- At £30 I'm bid, right at the back at 30.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29And I sell, then, at 30. Are we all done, then, at 30?
0:36:29 > 0:36:33£30, which is minus £20. Now, you were plus ten before.
0:36:33 > 0:36:37Minus 20. It means that you are minus £10 now.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40What are you going to do about the Marly horses? Go with them?
0:36:40 > 0:36:44- I think so. Yes, please. - Definitely? That's a decision made?
0:36:44 > 0:36:46- Yeah.- For certain?- Yes.
0:36:46 > 0:36:50Right, then. We're going with the spelter horses, and here they come.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53Horse-and-groom figures there, in spelter. How do you see those, then?
0:36:53 > 0:36:56Put me in at £100. Well, 50 to start, then, surely.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00Good decorative objects. 50? Well, 30 and up we go, then.
0:37:00 > 0:37:0430 surely. Well, 20, then, and up we go.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07Three places. 20. Five in the doorway.
0:37:07 > 0:37:1030. With Basil at 30. At five.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13At 35. It's against you, Basil. It's in the doorway. 40 now.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16In the doorway at 40. At £40, I'm bid.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18At 40 I'm bid. Do I see five anywhere?
0:37:18 > 0:37:22At £40. It's in the doorway, then. Are we all done and dusted?
0:37:22 > 0:37:24- 45. He's back in.- Yes!
0:37:24 > 0:37:28At 45. He's back in, then, at 45. And I shall sell at 45...
0:37:28 > 0:37:31£45 is plus £10,
0:37:31 > 0:37:34which means, overall, you're absolutely nowhere.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37Up a creek! THEY LAUGH
0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Without a paddle!- You've wiped your face good and proper.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43Oh, dear! Oh, dear!
0:37:43 > 0:37:48- Anyway, there's no shame in that. - No.- It could've been a lot worse.
0:37:48 > 0:37:51- It could!- Oh, that was so exciting!
0:37:51 > 0:37:54The big trick now is, don't say a thing to the Blues.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57- Lips sealed.- Everything sealed.- Yes.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04- Do you know how the Reds got on? - No.- Not at all.
0:38:04 > 0:38:07No idea? OK. Well, I'm delighted about that,
0:38:07 > 0:38:09because you don't want to know, I tell you.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12First up is the carriage timepiece, and here it comes.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Early 20th-century brass-cased carriage timepiece,
0:38:15 > 0:38:18in the Morocco-leather carrying case there.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21How do you see that one, then? Put me in at £50 to start.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24- 50. Well, 30, then, and up we go. - 50?!
0:38:24 > 0:38:27Well, 20 to get started, then.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30- £20?!- Don't worry, don't worry. - 20 I'm bid. At 20.
0:38:30 > 0:38:32You bidding, Brian?
0:38:32 > 0:38:3522, and a brand-new bid at 25. 28. 30.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38- Two. 35.- Paid 90!
0:38:38 > 0:38:40- 40.- I know. He's getting there. He's getting there.
0:38:40 > 0:38:4345. 45 is in the front row.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46- Long way to go! - 45, then, in the front row.
0:38:46 > 0:38:50- No, no. Come on, come on! Sorry. - At 45...
0:38:50 > 0:38:53- Oh!- I did have a second thought after we'd bought it,
0:38:53 > 0:38:56- but I can say that, can't I? - Minus 45.
0:38:56 > 0:38:59- We saw that crack. - Exactly, afterwards.
0:38:59 > 0:39:00Here comes the bowl.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02How do you see that one, then? Put me in at £40.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05Look handsome on the dining table.
0:39:05 > 0:39:06Well, 20 to start, then, surely.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08£20, surely.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12- Might not do a thing round here. - Come on!
0:39:12 > 0:39:15Ten and up we go, then. Come along, do. Ten I'm bid. At £10 only.
0:39:15 > 0:39:1812 down here. At 12. 14.
0:39:18 > 0:39:1916.
0:39:19 > 0:39:2316 is on the end here. Only at £16.
0:39:23 > 0:39:26Are we all done, then, at 16? Cheap little lot, then.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28At £16, then. All done at 16.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31- You've made a pound.- £1. - Oh, did we make a pound?
0:39:31 > 0:39:34Yeah. Paid £15. You just made one back.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Oh, good.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39Late-Victorian tripod table. Bit of restoration needed,
0:39:39 > 0:39:42but a good little lot nonetheless.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Start me off at 50. Well, 30 to start, then, surely.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48Come along, do. 20, then, and up we go.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52Anyone start me? 20 for the tripod. Come along, do. Cheap little lot.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Anyone start me? 20. Well, ten and up we go, then, surely,
0:39:55 > 0:39:58for a tripod table. What are we doing?
0:39:58 > 0:40:02Ten in the front row. At ten. At £10 only. At ten I'm bid.
0:40:02 > 0:40:06At £10. It's on a maiden bid. It's going to be sold at ten only.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09- At ten only.- Oh, no!
0:40:09 > 0:40:10Cheap little lot at £10.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13- That's minus £8.- That's appalling.
0:40:13 > 0:40:17Don't worry. We'll claw it all back. We'll claw it all back.
0:40:17 > 0:40:21Anyway, listen, that is minus 53, plus the one. That's minus 52.
0:40:21 > 0:40:22Yes?
0:40:22 > 0:40:26Minus £52. So what are we going to do about the teapot?
0:40:26 > 0:40:29We've decided we're definitely going with it.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32- Yeah. I don't blame you, actually. - I loved it anyway.
0:40:32 > 0:40:36- Yes. All right, then. - We need the profit.- Certainly do,
0:40:36 > 0:40:39the way this is shaping up. OK. So you're minus £52.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42You're going with the miniature teapot, and here it comes.
0:40:42 > 0:40:46Nice little teapot. Put me in at £100 for it to start.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49100. Well, 50 to start, then.
0:40:49 > 0:40:52- 50 I'm bid.- Straight in. - I have a commission at 60. 70.
0:40:52 > 0:40:5680. 90, seated in the chair. At 90.
0:40:56 > 0:41:01- Gentleman seated, at £90.- Go on! - Come on.- Any other bids? At 90.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04Seated, at 90. And I sell at 90, then...
0:41:04 > 0:41:06- Oh, blimey.- Still made a loss.
0:41:06 > 0:41:11£90 equals an incredible profit of £50.
0:41:11 > 0:41:15And as you were minus 52, overall you're minus £2.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18- I'm sorry.- That's all right. - That's not too bad, is it?
0:41:18 > 0:41:21- Minus £2.- Could be the winner. - Could be a winning score.
0:41:21 > 0:41:25- You've watched this programme before.- Absolutely!
0:41:25 > 0:41:28- Just about every day.- Lovely.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Anyway, all will be revealed in a moment.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34Well done, girls, and Jonathan. That's a marvellous profit.
0:41:38 > 0:41:40You lot been chatting to one another?
0:41:40 > 0:41:42- No.- You're looking very jolly.
0:41:42 > 0:41:47Well, I can reveal that there is just £2 between you.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51- I mean, how crucially close is that? - Flippin' 'eck!
0:41:51 > 0:41:54We haven't got any losers. We only have runners-up.
0:41:54 > 0:41:56And the runners-up today are the Blues.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58THEY LAUGH
0:41:58 > 0:42:02The Blues have managed to lose by only losing £2.
0:42:02 > 0:42:06Right? I mean, you had £45 down the old proverbial
0:42:06 > 0:42:09with that carriage timepiece, which was a blow.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12But yet, Jonathan, your bonus buy made a profit of £50,
0:42:12 > 0:42:16which rescued the team from the abyss,
0:42:16 > 0:42:20- which was brilliant, wasn't it? - It was.- Very, very exciting.
0:42:20 > 0:42:24Very exciting and well done, and I'm sorry it's only £2 between you,
0:42:24 > 0:42:28but it just shows how close it can be on an excellent show like this.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31The victors, though, have managed to win
0:42:31 > 0:42:34by winning absolutely nothing.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36They have got the ultimate wiped face,
0:42:36 > 0:42:40because their end score is zero, which is really good, isn't it?
0:42:40 > 0:42:43- Nice round figure.- It's really good. A nice round figure!
0:42:43 > 0:42:48Zero IS a round figure. £10 profit on the inkwell. Very nice, too.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51£10 profit on the equestrian sculptures, the Marly horses.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55Well done on that. So that's really good expert buy on that.
0:42:55 > 0:42:59- So I congratulate you. - Thank you.- Tight as tight can be!
0:42:59 > 0:43:02There's hardly a sheet of lavatory paper between them.
0:43:02 > 0:43:05We've had a great show. Join us soon for more bargain hunting, yes?
0:43:05 > 0:43:07Yes!
