0:00:05 > 0:00:08A couple of clementines, a couple of Royal Galas,
0:00:08 > 0:00:09thank you very much.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13- How much would that lot be?- 60p. - 60p. Do it for 50?
0:00:13 > 0:00:15- Yeah, not a problem. Go on. - 50p. Lovely.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17Thank you very much, squire. There you go.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20These people know a thing or two about bargaining.
0:00:20 > 0:00:24The big question is, though, how will our teams get on today?
0:00:24 > 0:00:26Cos let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:26 > 0:00:27Yeah!
0:00:52 > 0:00:57This part of London is a Mecca for all sorts of bargain hunters
0:00:57 > 0:01:01and we're bringing our teams today to Alfies Antiques Market,
0:01:01 > 0:01:05one of the largest covered markets in the country.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09Because as they say round here, "Alfie, don't be so filthy!
0:01:09 > 0:01:11"Use your hankie!"
0:01:13 > 0:01:18We've got a show of ups and downs.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20And some more downs.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22- The Blues get lost. - Can't we get down this way?
0:01:22 > 0:01:26- The Reds get stuck in. - Climb in.- Climb in.- All aboard.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Will they make a profit in the sale room?
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Let's find out.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Well, it's happy families today.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40For the Reds we've got Philip and Ellie, father and daughter.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Morning.- Morning.- Hi. - Lovely to see you.
0:01:42 > 0:01:48- Now, Philip. You're going to be just fine with buying and selling, aren't you?- I hope so, yeah.
0:01:48 > 0:01:54- What do you do?- I sell pickles and jams and cheeses at markets and shows around the country.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56- Really? You're Mr Pickle man, are you?- Well...
0:01:56 > 0:01:59One of my favourite foods is pickle.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02It's a good way of jollying up some cold dish, isn't it?
0:02:02 > 0:02:04They go with all sorts of things,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06with cold dishes, with hot foods, as well.
0:02:06 > 0:02:11Quite right, too. Keep pushing it, that's what I say.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14But you've made a bit of a name for yourself in your village.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17I guess that really comes from the calendar.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20We did a calendar to support breast cancer in the village
0:02:20 > 0:02:23and 12 of us got together with a number of tractors
0:02:23 > 0:02:26- and took our clothes off. - Did you?- Yes.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30- You posed naked with your tractor? - Yes. Behind the wheel.
0:02:30 > 0:02:35- Good Lord.- We raised something like £9-10,000 for breast cancer.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37- I mean, it's a scream, isn't it? - It was a good laugh.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40- You had to be quite brave, though. - Mm.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Now, Ellie, we're shopping indoors today
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- but your great love is the outdoors, isn't it?- Yes.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51I work at the moment as a bar and restaurant manager
0:02:51 > 0:02:56but my true love is horticulture and landscape gardening.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58So what's the ideal job, then, after the bar work?
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Well, I lived in New Zealand for a year,
0:03:01 > 0:03:05where I did a bit of conservation work working in a botanic gardens.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08I'd like to go back and do a bit more conservation work,
0:03:08 > 0:03:11specialising in endangered plants and things like that.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13- Well, good luck with that. - Thank you.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17Now, for the Blues, the mother and daughter combo.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Now, Jackie, you're no stranger to being in the limelight.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25- Well, I have my moments.- You have your moments. You're very modest.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Tell us about it.
0:03:26 > 0:03:31Well, a number of years ago I started doing background work in films.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35Unbeknown to a lot of people, I am, in another life, a Ministry wizard.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37- Mm.- Really?- Yeah.
0:03:37 > 0:03:42- I've done a few Harry Potter films and it was great fun.- Yes.
0:03:42 > 0:03:48- Horrendously long hours.- A bit like Bargain Hunt, really - not.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49I'm finding out!
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Ann, you're going to have particular fun, I hope, today,
0:03:53 > 0:03:54shopping in this environment.
0:03:54 > 0:03:59Well, I should do because I like modernist pieces, 1920s, '30s, '40s.
0:03:59 > 0:04:03and I guess this is a perfect place to hunt for them.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Now, apart from liking things that look beautiful,
0:04:05 > 0:04:10- you're also keen on the beautiful sound, aren't you?- I am, exactly.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12I've been volunteering at a radio station.
0:04:12 > 0:04:18- New career opening up? - Fingers crossed.- A new career, hopefully, in audio production...
0:04:18 > 0:04:23- There you are.- ..radio programmes, maybe sound installations, so...
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- So what job do you do at the moment? - I don't have a job.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I'm one of those lucky few or majority
0:04:27 > 0:04:30that are looking for a job at the moment.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32It's a nightmare for you, so don't be dispirited.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- We look forward to some good news... - Thank you.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37..on the employment front, hopefully.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Now, the money moment. Here we go. £300 apiece.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Here's your £300. The bit you're waiting for, Phil. Look at that.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Oh, yes, the market trader. Here we go.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49£300 apiece. You know the rules. Your experts await
0:04:49 > 0:04:51and off you go and very, very, very good luck.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Gosh! What charming family teams.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58From our happy family of experts,
0:04:58 > 0:05:02introducing golden boy Charlie Hanson
0:05:02 > 0:05:04and sparkling Anita Manning.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06- Charlie!- Anita.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11We're now on the stairway to heaven, OK? The stairway to big profit.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14It's all about, the hour goes very quickly,
0:05:14 > 0:05:17look at the object, work the object, look hard, play hard
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- and figure it out, OK?- Sounds good.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Girls, we've got plenty of choice here.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27But what is it we're looking for? What do you want to buy?
0:05:27 > 0:05:31I think some classic items, 20th century,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35but also functional pieces for the domestic environment.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37- Shall we go and have a look?- Yes. - Come on.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40# I'm going in for the kill
0:05:40 > 0:05:43# I'm doing it for a thrill
0:05:43 > 0:05:47# I'm hoping you'd understand
0:05:47 > 0:05:50# And now let go of my hand. #
0:05:51 > 0:05:58- Anita, is that what you'd call a Toby jug?- Yes. Do you like it?
0:05:58 > 0:06:01It's very cheeky, isn't it? LAUGHTER
0:06:01 > 0:06:06- I just wondered how much that is. - Humpty Dumpty.- Humpty Dumpty.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10It's Carlton Ware, 1930s, part of the novelty range.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15Have I not priced him yet? Yes, I've got £295 on him.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18- The best price on it, I can do 200. It's an unusual piece.- It is.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22- It's a real one and that's why it's expensive.- It's an original.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25I love it. I can see it in my kitchen on a shelf.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- At £200?- No. LAUGHTER
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- I'm very keen on that. - OK, so keep that in mind.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34'Seems a lot to shell out to me, girls.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38'Bit early for that, Phil.'
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Charles!- Yes, were you calling me?
0:06:42 > 0:06:45It's marked EPNS. It's electroplate nickel silver.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- It's very nice.- It is nice
0:06:47 > 0:06:50but I guess we should go for real silver.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Yeah, it's got to be in good condition
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- and real silver, exactly.- OK.- Yeah. - Never mind.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- It's a nutcracker. - Is this a nutcracker?- You're right.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07- What you have is a collectable piece of Black Forest carving.- Yes.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10It will appeal to the dog collectors
0:07:10 > 0:07:12and also nutcracker collectors
0:07:12 > 0:07:15and Black Forest collectors.
0:07:15 > 0:07:21The nice thing about that is that it still has the original glass eyes
0:07:21 > 0:07:22and these eyes move.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26In actual fact, they follow you as you move around...
0:07:26 > 0:07:28They follow you as you move around the room.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29LAUGHTER
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- And that one is...? - It's got 75 on it.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36The best price I can do on it, it should be 60, I'll do 50
0:07:36 > 0:07:37because I've had a good day.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42Novelties always make money because you've always got somebody with a warped sense of humour.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Some nutter.- Yes, like you and me.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48- That's very good. Some nutter. - There you are.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- It took you a long time to get that one, ladies.- I got it!
0:07:52 > 0:07:54'You're barking mad!'
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- What's this? A cigar holder? - It's a cigar holder.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06- A cigar holder?- Isn't that neat, eh?
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- I like that.- I like it. I like it. Have a feel.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12You're not a smoker, are you, Ellie?
0:08:12 > 0:08:16A wine bottle. You could have that hidden in with all your wine
0:08:16 > 0:08:20and your missus would never know if you're smoking a couple of cigars on the side.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27- Is there any more movement on that? - Er, let me see what I can do.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- I've had a good day, so 40.- 40?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Have you forgotten about Humpty?
0:08:34 > 0:08:37What was your best of the best of the best for the two?
0:08:37 > 0:08:41- Tell me what you're thinking and don't say 150.- I wasn't going to.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45I was sort of going to meet you somewhere in the middle, maybe,
0:08:45 > 0:08:48between 150 and 200.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- How about 190? - No. That wasn't quite the middle.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- Well, I've got to make a profit as well.- I know, I know,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58but we're nice people and you're a nice lady.
0:08:58 > 0:08:59LAUGHTER
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Oh, you smooth talker!
0:09:01 > 0:09:06- 175 for the two. - God, you're a hard woman. Go on, then.
0:09:06 > 0:09:11- Do you reckon?- 175, girls. You have just bought two items.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14Crikey! Good work.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18Now, guys, over here. Look at this.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21- Wow.- What do you think it is?
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- Have a guess.- A magic wand.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27Well, it could almost be a magic wand.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29In fact, you think, well, what's up with it?
0:09:29 > 0:09:33- What's up with it? - Is there something missing from the end?- You're right.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37- And where is that?- Inside. - So watch, I undo this...
0:09:38 > 0:09:41- And then this attachment is on like that...- Oh!
0:09:41 > 0:09:44And, of course, it's a conductor's baton.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Isn't it great? - It's cool.- Fantastic.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50We like objects with pedigree and this long, extending baton -
0:09:50 > 0:09:51that's the top part there,
0:09:51 > 0:09:55the mushroom, silver, chased cover goes on like so -
0:09:55 > 0:09:58and we can see on it, it's inscribed and dated.
0:09:58 > 0:10:05It reads, "Presented to Mr Scaife by the Wandsworth Male Voice Choir,
0:10:05 > 0:10:07"April 1908."
0:10:07 > 0:10:11Each tip is full hallmarked, it's an ebonised, tapered shaft
0:10:11 > 0:10:14and what makes it unusual is it's in three pieces.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16And you can take it all apart like that.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18It's in three detachable bits
0:10:18 > 0:10:22and what is so nice, it also has its original case.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24- It's beautiful.- Isn't it? - It's lovely.- I like it.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28- I think it's different. - Can I ask, dare I ask how much?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30What's it worth? Well...
0:10:30 > 0:10:31'Good question, Ellie.'
0:10:31 > 0:10:36- 95.- £95. I like it.- Yes.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38OK, now, in a sale room, what's it worth?
0:10:38 > 0:10:44Because it's in three divisions, I would suggest to a client up north,
0:10:44 > 0:10:48where things are a bit cheaper because of the north-south divide,
0:10:48 > 0:10:51it would carry a guide price of between £80-£120.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- OK, that's my thought on value. - Right.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56We're going to Chelsea, love,
0:10:56 > 0:11:00we're going to the big market on a Sunday in a retail environment,
0:11:00 > 0:11:02it might make a bit more.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- I like it.- It fits in with what you said about something nice and stylish.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10- Any chance of 90, at all?- £90.- £90?
0:11:10 > 0:11:12- I'd buy it.- I'd buy it. - Because I like it.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13Definitely.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17- It's different.- I've not seen anything like that before.
0:11:17 > 0:11:22- It's got provenance.- You could even make a romantic story up about it.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Yes, you could, and on that note, we'll take it.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28- Definitely.- All right.- Happy with that?- Fantastic.- Are you sure, Dad?
0:11:28 > 0:11:30Yep, I love it. I think it's brilliant.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34- We've done it. OK. That's our first one down.- Brilliant.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- These light fittings are really astonishing.- Yeah.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42I would say that these things are Italian.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44The Italians have always had great style.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Mm, speaking of style...
0:11:55 > 0:11:57This is a beautiful place, you know,
0:11:57 > 0:12:02and even the furniture, is, oh, I don't know - comfortable.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06It's attractive to look at, it's practical and comfy.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07And what I love are
0:12:07 > 0:12:10some of these decorative objects just sitting around,
0:12:10 > 0:12:14dating from the 1950s and 1960s.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Take these two dishes.
0:12:16 > 0:12:23Now, this one is shaped rather like a chip of wood that's warped.
0:12:23 > 0:12:28It's actually made of bronze or brass, or at least the core is,
0:12:28 > 0:12:33and there's been some incredibly complicated technical treatment
0:12:33 > 0:12:35to create this decorative effect.
0:12:35 > 0:12:42To make this lovely rippled, almost striped grain within the enamel,
0:12:42 > 0:12:47they've had to apply silver foil onto the brass or bronze ground,
0:12:47 > 0:12:54cut it into strips and then apply this opaque orange enamel on top.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58But for the last third, there hasn't been any enamelling
0:12:58 > 0:13:01on the silver-foil ground.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03They've simply created by casting
0:13:03 > 0:13:09this oddball, geometric arrangement of divided cubes
0:13:09 > 0:13:15with a crizzled skin type ground on the outside,
0:13:15 > 0:13:19something that is abstract and utterly delightful.
0:13:19 > 0:13:25Now, the complementing dish is even more peculiarly shaped.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Look at that. You hold that up like that.
0:13:27 > 0:13:32You've got that curve on that plane and that curve on that plane
0:13:32 > 0:13:35It has a similar form of decoration,
0:13:35 > 0:13:38except the geometric band on this side
0:13:38 > 0:13:40is of a different shape
0:13:40 > 0:13:42and if we turn it upside down,
0:13:42 > 0:13:44you can see that it's been enamelled on the back
0:13:44 > 0:13:46and we get a mark.
0:13:46 > 0:13:51That mark within a shaped pyramid says Del Campo,
0:13:51 > 0:13:55which indicates who the manufacturer was in Italy.
0:13:56 > 0:14:01In 1952, a group of enamellers, art students,
0:14:01 > 0:14:07founded a loose association and two of those left that association
0:14:07 > 0:14:11in 1957 to set up the Del Campo works.
0:14:11 > 0:14:17So we know that these dishes date from around 1957 to 1960.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20They're in perfect condition.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24They are, truly, the antiques of the future
0:14:24 > 0:14:27and I think it's remarkable that you can buy
0:14:27 > 0:14:31something of this quality for only
0:14:31 > 0:14:33£1,650.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36And who knows what sort of a deal you might get
0:14:36 > 0:14:38if you walked in here with pound notes.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41HE SPEAKS ITALIAN
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Look at these great pillars here. Have a guess how much?
0:14:55 > 0:14:57They are from a villa on Lake Como.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- OK, all that romance.- Oh, wow. - And that's provenance, isn't it?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03- Yeah.- £2,000.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07- You pay for the experience of being taken back to Italy.- Exactly.
0:15:07 > 0:15:08And that's all, OK?
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Oh, never mind the romance, Carlos. Get shopping!
0:15:12 > 0:15:15At least you Blues know where you're going.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17- ..downstairs but can we get there? - The way we came?
0:15:17 > 0:15:20- Or maybe not. - Can't we get down this way?
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- Shall we go the way we came? - Yeah, yeah.- I think so.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Ah, that's more like it.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Wait a minute.
0:15:32 > 0:15:33TAPE REWINDING
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Who's that handsome fellow?
0:15:38 > 0:15:41- We're just enquiring, sir. How much is it?- 250.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Is that £250?
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Or £2.50?
0:15:45 > 0:15:47£250.
0:15:47 > 0:15:48Yeah, OK. We'll leave it.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52- LAUGHTER - We'll move on, thank you.- Thank you.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Quick march, Reds, you're way behind.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00This is what really caught my eye, the little girl and the boy
0:16:00 > 0:16:01and they're a set.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05- German Art Nouveau.- I just think that they're charming.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- They are delightful, though... - They're decorative. - Oh, yes, absolutely.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12You've got the key. Hooray.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15You girls really know what you're after.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20- But can you get it?- No, that's too big.- That's too big, is it?
0:16:20 > 0:16:22Yeah.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27Right, guys, don't panic, you know, it's tough at the moment.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31We bought the first item the best part of half an hour ago now
0:16:31 > 0:16:33but don't panic because it does happen.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- Right.- So frustrating.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38OK, ah, there we are.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41- And they're in!- Yes, yes!- Brilliant.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45There you are, Anita, and let's have a look at the boy.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- These are actually for hanging on the wall.- Yes.
0:16:48 > 0:16:52They've very sweet. The subjects are good. They're romantic, again.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56The little girl and the little boy. Children always sell.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00They are very Germanic. They're in traditional dress, aren't they?
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Can I ask you what price the pair are?
0:17:03 > 0:17:07We have a price of something like... Sorry.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10280 for the pair.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12We can do it for about £100
0:17:12 > 0:17:14but we can't do it for any less than that.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17- So £200 was for the pair...- Yes.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21- ..but you can sell them for £100, the pair?- Yeah.- The pair.- Yeah.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Well, what do you think, Anita?
0:17:23 > 0:17:26Well, I think that they're very pretty items.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29I think £100 is not expensive.
0:17:29 > 0:17:35They're probably not late 19th, early 20th century.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37They're probably a little bit later
0:17:37 > 0:17:40- but the style carries them through. - Right.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43I think they're very nice and I think £100 is a good price.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46- Very appealing.- Yes.- OK.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Yes. I like the pair.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51It makes me smile.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53That's what we like to see on Bargain Hunt.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- Exactly. Smile, smile, smile. - Thank you very much.- Brilliant.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Good work! You're done.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Come on, Reds. You're two down.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06I wonder, madam, may we have a look at this nice cigarette case?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08- That's not silver. - Oh, is it? What a shame.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- There we are.- Isn't that gorgeous? - It's a lovely colour.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14- Ellie, look at that.- Vibrant.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18- A vibrant cigarette case.- Yeah. - It's of great quality.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22It is electroplate nickel silver. We can see it marked there.
0:18:22 > 0:18:27But look at the form, look at the skyscraper effect. Can you see that?
0:18:27 > 0:18:31- Yeah.- In that columnar, enamel champleve inset.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33I love this engine turning on the blue
0:18:33 > 0:18:35and importantly, what's so good about it, Phil?
0:18:37 > 0:18:41- Er, undamaged.- Exactly, exactly. Look at the condition.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44- Suave.- Do people still buy cigarette cases?- They do.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48- It makes for a nice 18th or 21st birthday present.- Absolutely.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50The quality is divine.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51It's on at £85.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56- It's a bit steep if it's not silver. - It's a bit too much.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00- I'll see what I can do. - Oh, thank you.- 60?
0:19:00 > 0:19:02£60. That's a nice discount.
0:19:02 > 0:19:09OK, and I would guide that between, at auction, 50 and 70.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13So it's not a massive sort of margin but with time of the essence...
0:19:13 > 0:19:16We're OK but it's worthy of thought.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- What's that case up there for? - That's nice, isn't it?
0:19:19 > 0:19:23- Little cameo case. - Yeah, is it a cameo case?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26That's sweet, isn't it? And that's the original box for it.
0:19:26 > 0:19:27Isn't that gorgeous?
0:19:27 > 0:19:32That is a wonderful neoclassical, gilt, bellflower gilded case
0:19:32 > 0:19:35- and that lovely photo frame, is it? - It is.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38- Which comes out. That's gorgeous, isn't it?- That's beautiful.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41- Is it double-sided, as well? - Double-sided.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45So in fact you could have your loved one on either side
0:19:45 > 0:19:48or maybe a lock of hair on one side and a portrait of your partner,
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- lover, husband, wife...- Depends who it is, yeah.- ..on the other.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55It's probably around 1900, 1910.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59So it's high Edwardian elegance.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03- What's the best price, madam? - 150.- 150.- 150.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07If we bought the two lots together...
0:20:09 > 0:20:11what would the best price be for the two?
0:20:11 > 0:20:15- I'd take off another 15. - So it would be 195, is that right?
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Yeah.- 195.- How about 180? - All right, I'll make it 190.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21What do you think? Phil, talk to me.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25Well, they're both great items. They're both stunning.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26- They're lovely.- Ten minutes to go.
0:20:26 > 0:20:31I'm very taken with that. I'm very taken with that.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33But I still feel 150's a little too high.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37- Is there any...?- Can you squeeze another ten for us?- I'll take another ten off to help you.
0:20:37 > 0:20:43- Thank you.- At £140, this has enough quality to make a bit more.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46I have to say, I prefer the pair. Let's go for both of them.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48- Let's do it. Let's do it.- Go. Go.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52There's nothing else you like more? These are my top two choices
0:20:52 > 0:20:53of what we've seen so far.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57I've only met you today but I trust you already, so, yes.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00- That's always bad news, isn't it? - It's all on you, then.
0:21:00 > 0:21:05- And, really, 140's the lowest?- Yes. - Absolute lowest?
0:21:05 > 0:21:06OK, 135.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09- Perfect.- You're a star. - You're perfect.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13135 and 40 makes £175.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15- That's enough.- Yes! Done!
0:21:15 > 0:21:18- Well done.- Well done.- Thanks.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- All done.- Done.- Brilliant.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23Right, that's it. Time's up.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26OK, you 'orrible Reds, let's check out what you bought.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32The silver-topped conductor's baton really struck a chord
0:21:32 > 0:21:34with Phil and Ellie.
0:21:36 > 0:21:40They wanted style and they found it in the enamelled cigarette case.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44And it's pretty as a picture
0:21:44 > 0:21:47but can the cameo case make a profit in the sale room?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- I'm really happy. - I love the things we bought.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Really happy.- It's always nice to finish, isn't it?
0:21:53 > 0:21:56That's what I like about happy families, Charles.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00You're so good at looking after your team. Congratulations, anyway.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03- So that's well shopped, isn't it? - Very well shopped.- It is.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07- What did you spend overall, then? - £265.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- Correct.- Who's got the £35 smackers? - I do.- I want that.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13- No, you're not allowed out on your own.- No?- There you go.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16- £35. Thank you. There you go, Charles.- Thanks, Tim.
0:22:16 > 0:22:21- What are you going to do with that? - Well, I think the gardening influence is difficult here
0:22:21 > 0:22:24but I think something wooden, something stick-like.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- In other words...- Yes? - ..a golf club.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29I don't know. Something with a hard edge.
0:22:29 > 0:22:33- We're looking for something a bit raw and unrefined...- Natural.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36..and we can take it out to Chelsea.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38OK, well, I like the sound of all of this.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Anyway, you've had a great time. Thanks, Charles. Super-duper.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45We're going to check out what the Blue team bought, what?
0:22:46 > 0:22:49They kicked off with a cracking Toby jug
0:22:49 > 0:22:51in the shape of Humpty Dumpty.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55And then they snapped up the Black Forest nutcracker
0:22:55 > 0:22:57at the bargain price of £30.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02A pair of wall plaques decorated with children
0:23:02 > 0:23:03completes the picture.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- That was great fun, wasn't it? - It was good fun, yeah.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08It's comfy down here on the family settee.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- How was your shop? Pretty good? - Good. Very good.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15- Speedy.- Fast and furious.- Yeah. Within half an hour, I was told.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Absolutely. No messing.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19I hope you haven't been too speedy about this.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21What did you spend overall?
0:23:21 > 0:23:26Er, we spent, what? £275.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27- OK, who's got the 25 smackers?- Me.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31- Thank you. Can I have it? - There you go.- Thank you. £25.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34- Here you are, Anita Manning. Here's your £25.- £25.- Yeah.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38Do you stand any chance of finding anything for £25?
0:23:38 > 0:23:42Of course I'll find something for £25.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43That's tons of money.
0:23:43 > 0:23:47There's lots of nice little bits and pieces for very modest prices.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50OK, fine, well, we'll leave that with you, Anita.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Meanwhile, we're heading off to Buckinghamshire,
0:23:53 > 0:23:55to West Wycombe Park, no less.
0:24:02 > 0:24:08The estate was passed between various kings, bishops and queens
0:24:08 > 0:24:13until 1706, when it was acquired by a successful merchant
0:24:13 > 0:24:15by the name of Dashwood.
0:24:15 > 0:24:20Things got really interesting here, though, when his son inherited
0:24:20 > 0:24:23and decided to give the place a makeover
0:24:23 > 0:24:27and created a magnificent Palladian mansion.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37But this place is no museum. Oh, no.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39There's one room
0:24:39 > 0:24:43that perfectly synthesises historic house with family home
0:24:43 > 0:24:45and it's just over here.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53And it's called, surprise, surprise, the Tapestry Room,
0:24:53 > 0:24:59because it's completely contained by Brussels tapestries,
0:24:59 > 0:25:02which were produced early in the 18th century.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05They were originally bought by the Duke of Marlborough
0:25:05 > 0:25:08and distributed to his friends and colleagues
0:25:08 > 0:25:12to celebrate his successful battles in the Netherlands.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15These were given to the Earl of Westmorland,
0:25:15 > 0:25:19who subsequently left them to the Dashwoods in the 1760s,
0:25:19 > 0:25:22which is when they were hung in this room.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25They depict a series of scenes
0:25:25 > 0:25:29taken from paintings by Teniers the Younger
0:25:29 > 0:25:32and the scene behind me shows a fish market.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36On the right-hand side we've got the fisherman themselves
0:25:36 > 0:25:37drawing their nets
0:25:37 > 0:25:40and if you progress up the pier itself,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42you see the progress of the cod,
0:25:42 > 0:25:46until you get to the fishmonger and the fishwife at the end
0:25:46 > 0:25:48doing a bit of filleting.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53Now, the tapestry along the end wall here shows a bowls match.
0:25:53 > 0:25:59And, indeed, the characters who are about to set about the bowling
0:25:59 > 0:26:01look completely miserable.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Quite why they're looking so miserable, though, I can't tell you
0:26:05 > 0:26:09because the entire left-hand section of the tapestry
0:26:09 > 0:26:10has been cut about.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14When they arrived here, the Dashwoods would have recognised
0:26:14 > 0:26:18that the full length up above fits the wall perfectly
0:26:18 > 0:26:22but unfortunately, the doorway and fireplace are in the way,
0:26:22 > 0:26:25so they simply cut up the old tapestry
0:26:25 > 0:26:28to fit around the fire and the door.
0:26:28 > 0:26:33Huh! Some would say that this is a wanton act of vandalism
0:26:33 > 0:26:37but you have to place this in the context of the time.
0:26:37 > 0:26:41These tapestries, when they were hung, would have been 50 years old.
0:26:41 > 0:26:46They wouldn't have been revered as early 18th century Brussels tapestries.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50They'd be probably looked at as rather old-fashioned
0:26:50 > 0:26:53and therefore, no big deal to cut that lump out.
0:26:53 > 0:26:57The vision on the far wall is complete
0:26:57 > 0:26:59and it depicts the return of the harvest.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02Of course, the big question today is
0:27:02 > 0:27:07are our teams about to harvest a bumper crop over at the auction?
0:27:10 > 0:27:12It's time to find out.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14We're at Lots Road sale room in Chelsea,
0:27:14 > 0:27:18where auctioneer Nick Carter is wielding the gavel.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27Now, Ellie and Phil have gone with their baton. How do you rate that?
0:27:27 > 0:27:31I think it's a lovely thing. Silver mounts on it. Very nice indeed.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34- How much?- £100-£200. - OK, £90 paid.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39£90 paid. I wouldn't be surprised if we see it going reasonably up
0:27:39 > 0:27:40that £100-£200 scale.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43Now, what about the plated and enamel cigarette case?
0:27:43 > 0:27:48Cigarette cases are not that desirable nowadays, obviously.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52It's in reasonable condition. The enamel is pretty much untouched.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55- A bit of scratching on the surface but no chips.- No chips.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58I would think we're going to see £20-£40 on it.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01They paid £40, so that's about it.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Their last item is the miniature frame,
0:28:04 > 0:28:07- which I think is only gilt metal, isn't it?- It is only gilt metal.
0:28:07 > 0:28:12A lovely, leather, outer folding case but no miniature.
0:28:12 > 0:28:15No miniature but it would be a lovely thing
0:28:15 > 0:28:19to have an image in there - a photograph of yourself, Tim, maybe -
0:28:19 > 0:28:22- Well...- ..and you can put it down by the side of the bed,
0:28:22 > 0:28:25- see you all the time. - A two-faced photograph.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Perfect. How much do you think
0:28:28 > 0:28:32one of your wealthy punters here in Chelsea will pay?
0:28:32 > 0:28:34I think it's worth £60-£90.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37Is that all? Because they paid £135, you know.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40- They went out on a limb for this. - Mm.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43I think if you're buying a gift for somebody
0:28:43 > 0:28:46and you're buying it retail, £135 isn't terrible
0:28:46 > 0:28:50- but at auction, it's £60-£90. - To buy and resell. OK, fair enough.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52You know your market.
0:28:52 > 0:28:54And the estimate at £60-£90 is a tease, isn't it?
0:28:54 > 0:28:56It's saying, "Come and buy me."
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Still, depending on how that strategy works,
0:28:59 > 0:29:01will determine whether they need the bonus buy or not,
0:29:01 > 0:29:03so let's go and have a look at it.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Well, you spent £265,
0:29:06 > 0:29:10you gave £35 to Charles Handsome.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13What did you spend it on, handsome?
0:29:13 > 0:29:15Here we go. Look at that.
0:29:15 > 0:29:16LAUGHTER
0:29:16 > 0:29:19There is nothing like monkey business, OK?
0:29:19 > 0:29:22We had some monkey business in our hour
0:29:22 > 0:29:24and this is just novelty
0:29:24 > 0:29:28and novelty when it comes to decorative art from the early 20th century,
0:29:28 > 0:29:31all those factors in unison play very well together.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33- What do you think? - Do you really want to know?
0:29:33 > 0:29:37- Be honest.- You know we're meant to make a profit, don't you?
0:29:37 > 0:29:41Absolutely and this, I like a lot because it's in good condition.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44Look at that monkey, those eyes, smiling at you.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47It's saying, "Take me on. I'll make a profit."
0:29:47 > 0:29:52Marked on the base. There's your all-important shape number, the Bretby mark.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Made in England, so we know it's after 1921
0:29:54 > 0:29:56and I love the glaze.
0:29:56 > 0:29:58I think it's good fun.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- Dare we ask how much you paid for it? - It cost me £30.
0:30:02 > 0:30:06And I would be surprised if it didn't make between 40 and 60.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08Only a small profit but that is the name of the game
0:30:08 > 0:30:10and that's my job today.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13- Mm.- Right, OK. - It's worth thinking about.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Are Bretby still producing now?
0:30:15 > 0:30:18- No.- No.- Aren't Bretby in Derbyshire? - They are.
0:30:18 > 0:30:22- Ah!- Is that why you went for it? - Bretby are in Burton-on-Trent,
0:30:22 > 0:30:25- off the A511...- Yeah, yeah. - ..between Derby and Burton.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29- Not far from your sale room. - Tim, about 11.5 miles away.
0:30:30 > 0:30:34- There we go. Anyway, very, very good for that, yes?- Yes.- Yes.
0:30:34 > 0:30:37You don't pick it now, you pick it later but for the audience at home,
0:30:37 > 0:30:42let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charles Hanson's Bretby monkey.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47- That's a bit of fun. - Yes.- Isn't that marvellous?
0:30:47 > 0:30:52It's interesting, isn't it? But it's a little bit ugly, Tim, isn't it?
0:30:52 > 0:30:56There are collectors for this type of thing.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00- What's your estimate?- 25 to 50. - OK, £30 paid by Charles Hanson.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03Derbyshire man, he'll know his local pottery.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Anyway, that's it for the Reds, now for the Blues.
0:31:06 > 0:31:11First up, another novelty piece of ceramic, look - Humpty Dumpty.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15From the Carlton Ware factory, which is in Stoke-on-Trent.
0:31:15 > 0:31:19Again, they were well-known for making these novelty pieces
0:31:19 > 0:31:21with garish colours.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24There are collectors for these,
0:31:24 > 0:31:26not as many around as there used to be,
0:31:26 > 0:31:28but it's an interesting thing.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30It is Humpty Dumpty, he's not broken.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33- Is he going to have a great fall? - Is he going to have a great fall?
0:31:33 > 0:31:35I don't know how much they paid for him
0:31:35 > 0:31:38but I would suggest that we're looking at 40 to 60.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40- I have to tell you, he's had a great fall.- How much?
0:31:40 > 0:31:43He's completely smashed. £145 they paid.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48- £145?- Yeah, there we go. - Phew.- Dear, oh dear, oh dear.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50Yes, I think that was a bit too much.
0:31:50 > 0:31:52Next is the nutcracker.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55The nutcracker. It's a very sort of pedestrian thing.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59You see a lot of this sort of Black Forest carved woodwork
0:31:59 > 0:32:01around and about and it turns up for sale.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05- It never does particularly well. - It boils down to age, doesn't it?
0:32:05 > 0:32:10If you've got Black Forest stuff from the early period,
0:32:10 > 0:32:12late 19th, early 20th century,
0:32:12 > 0:32:15the mid period, maybe, the '30s...
0:32:15 > 0:32:18- I think that that's more like 1950s, 1960s.- Mm-hm.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- What's your estimate?- 20 to 40. - I think that's right. They paid 30.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25They didn't pay too much but it isn't going to make a big profit.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28What about these white metal plaques?
0:32:28 > 0:32:31- Do you fancy those?- They're not my cup of tea, really, Tim.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34They're Continental, probably Austrian.
0:32:34 > 0:32:39I think that really they would have been a set of four
0:32:39 > 0:32:41and they're representing the seasons.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44I think they will do OK. They'll do OK.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47Somebody will buy those as an interesting, decorative thing.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49They're bright and breezy. Glitzy things.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53- So, how much?- 30 to 50. - Not good enough. £100 they paid.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56So they've apparently overpaid for the plaques,
0:32:56 > 0:32:59they've apparently overpaid for Humpty Dumpty
0:32:59 > 0:33:02and they're going to need their bonus buy. Let's have a look.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05Now, Jackie and Ann, the leftover lolly moment.
0:33:05 > 0:33:10You only gave Anita £25. What did you spend it on, Anita?
0:33:10 > 0:33:13- ANITA LAUGHS - Is that shock?
0:33:14 > 0:33:21It's a 1970s spherical, plastic and chrome
0:33:21 > 0:33:22- ice bucket.- Oh!
0:33:22 > 0:33:24OK.
0:33:24 > 0:33:28- Right.- Have a look at it.- I've never seen a spherical one before.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31- It's for spherical ice cubes.- Huh!
0:33:31 > 0:33:35- And how much did that cost? - That's the important question.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37- Yes.- £20.- £20.- £20?
0:33:37 > 0:33:39I didn't have a lot of money to play with
0:33:39 > 0:33:45but I thought that that had a good look, a vintage look, 1970s.
0:33:45 > 0:33:50- Yes.- Mm-hm.- This type of material is popular just now in the market,
0:33:50 > 0:33:53plastic - there is nothing wrong with plastic, Tim.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57No. Lovely. What do you think?
0:33:57 > 0:34:00- Yeah.- It's very tactile, isn't it?
0:34:00 > 0:34:03- Yes, it's, erm... - Like a football, really.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06- It's like a mirror, wherever you are.- It's like a mirror.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- So how much did you spend, did you say?- £20.
0:34:09 > 0:34:14- And what sort of figure would it go for?- I would expect that to make perhaps 30.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- Really?- We don't know.- No. - We don't know.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20It's not an exact science. We won't know until the hammer falls.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Quite right.- We could get £10, we could get 50.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Well, perhaps not 50.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30- We live in hope. - Think optimistically.- Absolutely.
0:34:30 > 0:34:34Meanwhile, for the viewers at home, let's find out how optimistic
0:34:34 > 0:34:37the auctioneer's going to be about Anita's ice bucket.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40OK, Nick, one lump or two?
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- Oh, isn't it an ice bucket, not a sugar bowl?- It is.
0:34:43 > 0:34:44One lump of ice or two.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46It's very stylish, isn't it?
0:34:46 > 0:34:49You put ice in there, your friends come round,
0:34:49 > 0:34:51you dip in there to put something in their G&T.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54- Mm-hm.- Perfect.
0:34:54 > 0:34:58- How much?- How much? Not a lot, is it? 30 to 50.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00- Good lord. - I mean, it has got some age.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02It's probably 1970s.
0:35:02 > 0:35:07Amazing, isn't it? A cheaply made plastic, spherical ice container.
0:35:07 > 0:35:10£30-£50 the estimate, Anita paid 20.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14She'll be delighted if you get a price even approaching that.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16Wonderful.
0:35:16 > 0:35:17Stand by your beds.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24Going...
0:35:24 > 0:35:26Ellie, you're looking tense.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29My heart is racing like the clappers, absolutely.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33- Are you nervous about something? - Not nervous, just adrenaline.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35- Is that what it is? - It's adrenaline I think, yes.
0:35:35 > 0:35:39- Oh. What about you, Phil? - Eager anticipation, I think.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41- Is that what it is? - Twitching with anticipation.
0:35:41 > 0:35:44You never know what's going to happen. Anyway, exciting.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46Different things, exciting things.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49Let's see what happens. The first lot up is now.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52This is the conductor's baton.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55A very nice piece. Let's start it at £50.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57At 50. Anyone want to bid me 60?
0:35:57 > 0:36:0060 is yours, sir. 70's here.
0:36:00 > 0:36:0280? £80 anywhere?
0:36:02 > 0:36:05£70. 80 is bid. Any advance on 80?
0:36:05 > 0:36:08- Are we all done at 80? - I can't believe it.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10I'm going to sell it at £80.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12- Any more for that now? - Come on!- One more.
0:36:12 > 0:36:1590 is bid now. 90 is bid now.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18- What about 100? £100 is bid, front row.- Yes.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Anyone want to go 10? It's 456, well done, sir. Nice thing.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24456 at £100...
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Going, going...
0:36:27 > 0:36:29- Well done. Plus £10. - A profit, anyway.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32- We can't complain.- No. - No, it's a profit.
0:36:32 > 0:36:36381, this cigarette case, there.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39I can start the bidding off there at £10.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42Who'll bid me ten for that pretty case there? £10?
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Who'll bid me 10? 10, anywhere?
0:36:44 > 0:36:46- Ten anywhere now? Ten's bid. - Come on.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Anyone going to go 15 now? 15 anywhere now?
0:36:49 > 0:36:52- Otherwise it's £10.- Oh, no. - It's the gentleman's bid at ten.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54Anyone want to go 15 now?
0:36:54 > 0:36:58- Otherwise I am selling to you, sir. - You do want to go 15.- All done?
0:36:58 > 0:37:00- One, two, three at ten. - GAVEL BANGS
0:37:00 > 0:37:02That's minus £30. Wicked.
0:37:02 > 0:37:07382, the twin portrait case. I like this. Very pretty.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11Let's start the bidding off on this lot at £20.
0:37:11 > 0:37:13- Oh, no.- Oh, dear.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15At 20, 5, 30.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17Any advance on 30?
0:37:17 > 0:37:20- Five, 40.- Come on.
0:37:20 > 0:37:21- Five, 50.- Keep going.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24£50. Any advance on 50?
0:37:24 > 0:37:26- Any more for any more?- Go on.
0:37:26 > 0:37:2855, 60.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30Any advance on 60?
0:37:30 > 0:37:35I'm going to sell it at £60, then. Going, going, gone at 60.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38- Minus 75.- Dear, oh dear.
0:37:38 > 0:37:43Of course, made a profit of £10, that means overall you're minus £95.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46What are you going to do about the Bretby monkey?
0:37:46 > 0:37:50- Because on this form it's going to do terribly well! - It's going to dive.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53We've already made such a big loss, that...
0:37:53 > 0:37:55- Go on, let's do it.- We'll do it.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57We're going with the bonus buy. Here's the monkey.
0:37:57 > 0:38:01Lot number 386.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03We're ending on a high. It's our finale.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06We now have the pottery ash tray, there.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09I'm going to start the bidding off on this Bretby piece.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12- Who'll start me at £10 for this? - Oh, no.
0:38:12 > 0:38:1510 is yours, sir. 15 is here. Is it 20?
0:38:15 > 0:38:1920 is the gentleman's bid. Any advance on £20?
0:38:19 > 0:38:22- Go on.- Come on. It's unique. You'll never see anything like it again.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23And crazy.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26It's going at 20, once, twice, three times.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29- Crazy.- Oh, God.- Minus £10. Bad luck.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33That means overall you are minus £105.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36The big thing is, don't tell the Blues anything.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38- All right?- Yes. - Promise?- Promise.- Good.
0:38:43 > 0:38:47- So, Jacks and Ann, have you talked to the Reds?- No.- No.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49- You haven't talked to them at all? - No.- Good.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51First up is Humpty Dumpty and here he comes.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54Lot number 402.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
0:38:57 > 0:39:01but this one's not got any damage, it's rather nice and very colourful.
0:39:01 > 0:39:06I can start the bidding off on this lot at, let's say...
0:39:06 > 0:39:10Who'll start me at £10? Who'll start me at ten? Ten's yours, sir.
0:39:10 > 0:39:1215 is here, sir. Is it 20?
0:39:12 > 0:39:1520, five, 30.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Two's against you.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19- 35?- 35?
0:39:19 > 0:39:2135. Any advance on 35?
0:39:21 > 0:39:28Unless I see any more I am selling. Once, twice, three times...
0:39:28 > 0:39:32£110 minus, I'm afraid on that.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35Now, Ann, here comes the nutcracker.
0:39:35 > 0:39:38Start me at ten for the nutcracker. £10.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40Anyone going to go 15, now?
0:39:40 > 0:39:4210, 15, 15, 20.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45£20. £20. 22, commissions.
0:39:45 > 0:39:4925 anywhere? Otherwise I am selling at 22. Are we done?
0:39:49 > 0:39:52At £22 and selling. Going, going, gone.
0:39:52 > 0:39:54THEY GROAN
0:39:54 > 0:39:56Minus £8 on that.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58Oh, dear.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Now the wall plaques.
0:40:00 > 0:40:05And I can start the bidding off on that lot at let's say £10.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08Anyone going to bid me ten on these? Ten for the pair.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11Ten for the pair. Ten bid. What about 20?
0:40:11 > 0:40:13- 20 bid.- Oh, no. - Anyone advance on 20?
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Anyone going to go 30 now? Otherwise, it's at £20.
0:40:16 > 0:40:21- Uh-oh.- Anyone going to go 30? £20. 25 bid. 30 bid.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23Any advance on 30? Anyone going to go for any more?
0:40:23 > 0:40:27Otherwise I'm selling at 30. One, two, three at 30.
0:40:28 > 0:40:34- So that is minus 188. 188 overall. - That's too terrible.
0:40:34 > 0:40:38Don't worry about it. It's a bad day. The buyers aren't here for it.
0:40:38 > 0:40:41What about the ice bucket? Are you going to have a go at that?
0:40:41 > 0:40:45- We have to.- You have to.- We might make even more of a loss, though.
0:40:45 > 0:40:50- Oh, I think we owe it to Anita. - OK, Anita, we'll do it for you.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53- We'll do it for you.- You've made a decision to go with this.
0:40:53 > 0:40:56The estimate is 30 to 50. Let's see what happens.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59Ah, this ice bucket! I really like this.
0:40:59 > 0:41:03Very, very stylish. I'm going to start the bidding off at £10.
0:41:03 > 0:41:07I think this undervalued. Ten. Who's going to bid me 20?
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Ten. £20, £20. Any advance on 20?
0:41:10 > 0:41:14Are we all done? Anyone going to go for any more or I'm selling at 20?
0:41:14 > 0:41:19- Once at 20, twice at 20... £30 is bid now, front row.- Yes!
0:41:19 > 0:41:20£30, new buyer.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23456 is at 30 and buying it.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25One, two, three... Well done, sir.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28- £30. Well done, Anita.- Yes! - Plus £10.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30- Good for Anita.- Very good.
0:41:30 > 0:41:35So overall, that makes your score minus 178.
0:41:35 > 0:41:40- The big thing now is not to mention a word to the Reds.- No.
0:41:40 > 0:41:45- Because minus 178...- Yes? - ..could be a winning score.- Yes!
0:41:49 > 0:41:54- Well, teams, have you been chatting to one another?- No!- Not at all.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57Well, there are some extraordinary similarities with our teams today.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01Both teams made a socking great loss
0:42:01 > 0:42:07but one team has made substantially larger losses than the other
0:42:07 > 0:42:09and today, that is the Blue team.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11CHEERING
0:42:11 > 0:42:15- Ah!- Sorry, team.
0:42:15 > 0:42:20- You are behind by 178... - Well done, girls.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22..which is not so hot, is it, really?
0:42:22 > 0:42:25- No.- It's disastrous.- A bit cold.
0:42:25 > 0:42:28A bit cold but it doesn't matter one little scrap.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30Those items on another day in another sale room
