0:00:03 > 0:00:06Hello. Welcome to Peterborough, which is somewhere over that way,
0:00:06 > 0:00:09famous for its cathedral and brick-making.
0:00:09 > 0:00:14But today its famous for its fabulous finds - we hope!
0:00:14 > 0:00:18But right now, let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:41 > 0:00:43- Are we done?- Yeah.
0:00:43 > 0:00:44We're done!
0:00:44 > 0:00:50That's it. They've shopped. And what a tremendous shop it was.
0:00:50 > 0:00:51A bit of this...
0:00:51 > 0:00:53- I'm not buying it.- I like it.
0:00:53 > 0:00:55It's not what I was thinking of.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56I hate it!
0:00:56 > 0:00:59- You're hard to please, aren't you? - Very hard to please!
0:00:59 > 0:01:01And there was a bit of that.
0:01:01 > 0:01:0265, please!
0:01:03 > 0:01:06And the other side! The other side!
0:01:06 > 0:01:09You're a very passionate woman and I love that.
0:01:09 > 0:01:10Good, eh?
0:01:10 > 0:01:14Do you want to see it? Then rewind.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20So, today's reds, we have Nicky and Donna,
0:01:20 > 0:01:24and for the blues we have Denise and Henriette.
0:01:24 > 0:01:25Hello, everyone!
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- Hello!- Lovely to see you.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29Donna, how did you two meet?
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Nicky was my childminder for my son, Max, for a few years.
0:01:33 > 0:01:37- Yeah.- And our children both go to the same school now.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39And we see each other most days.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- So this relationship goes back a few years?- Yes.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46- But it's welded together because of the children.- It is.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47No better reason.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Nicky, you're a full-time mother yourself now.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53You had a pretty exciting job. Tell me about it.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Before I had my family, I used to work in Formula 1.
0:01:57 > 0:02:04I used to travel the world and meet famous people and drive round the circuits occasionally.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- Really?- Yeah, it was fun. - In the proper cars?- Oh, no!
0:02:07 > 0:02:09In a hire car, really slowly!
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Is it as glamorous as it's supposed to be?
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- It's very hard work. - Hard work.- Very.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19You're not answering my question! Is it glamorous?
0:02:19 > 0:02:23- No!- It's like every other job that looks fantastic from the outside,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25but actually you're grafting away.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27I was on the administration side of things
0:02:27 > 0:02:32so I made sure everyone had what they needed to have to go to various places.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Made sure they had their passes and their uniform.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- You were the efficient one?- Yeah!
0:02:37 > 0:02:41Is that how your team is going to work out today, your Formula 1 team?
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Pole position, yeah!
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Donna, you've got a passion for photography.- I have indeed.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- Yes.- Tell me about that. - I love taking photos,
0:02:50 > 0:02:53to the extreme that my family get fed up of being in photos
0:02:53 > 0:02:59so then I move on to nature and animals and anything that takes my eye.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03- Will you make a good team, you two? - Of course!- For sure. Yes.
0:03:03 > 0:03:08Cos you're women and you can multi-task. You've weaned children.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12- Yeah.- So this is a piece of cake. - Yes.- A walk in the park.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15We've heard that before! A walk in the park!
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Anyway, now, Denise. Mother and daughter,
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- but you're actually quite different. - Totally different, yes.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Mum's French and I'm English.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26That's a difference for a start.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Henriette, when did you come here?
0:03:28 > 0:03:33I came to England in 1953, just a few weeks before the Coronation.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37- I bet that was an exciting time? - It was exciting, yes.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Yes, and then it rained all day!
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- It is British weather, after all. - It is, yes.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46How come you stayed all these years, then?
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Well, I met my husband and I got married.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52- You finished up in the hotel business?- Yes.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57A sort of hotel. My husband was the head gardener and I was the bar manager.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Right.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02You had the better job, being behind the bar!
0:04:02 > 0:04:04- It was great fun. Great fun. - Very good.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08You have a special skill in an ancient craft.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11- Tell us about it.- I'm a lace maker. - Are you?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14I learned to make lace when I retired.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17I wanted a new hobby, something interesting,
0:04:17 > 0:04:18and I learned to make lace.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22It's an extremely difficult thing to do, isn't it?
0:04:22 > 0:04:26It's infuriating sometimes. You want to throw it out the window!
0:04:26 > 0:04:30But yes, it is. It's really absorbing
0:04:30 > 0:04:34and I enjoy it really very much.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Denise, have you inherited any of your mother's artistic talents?
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- Only the appreciation for the finer things in life!- I see.
0:04:42 > 0:04:47- Beautifully put.- Unfortunately I'm not as talented as Mum in creating things.
0:04:47 > 0:04:52- But you are musical?- I like to go to music festivals, small independent ones,
0:04:52 > 0:04:58and I run a very small camp which involves sitting in a field and doing nothing for a week.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00So it's a mini Glastonbury, is it?
0:05:00 > 0:05:05- Much smaller than Glastonbury. Only about 50 or 60 people there. - Lovely.
0:05:05 > 0:05:09So what tactics are you two going to use today on Bargain Hunt?
0:05:09 > 0:05:13We'll try and let our heads rule our hearts rather than the other way round.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16- And listen to our expert.- Anyway,
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- here's the money moment. There is your £300.- Thank you.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22- There you go. £300.- Thank you.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27You know the rules. Your experts await and off you go! Very, very good luck!
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Ooh, la la!
0:05:29 > 0:05:33The expert with the blue team is David Harper.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36You are very lucky to have us. Very lucky.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Thanks for letting me know! Come on.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40And helping the reds is Nick Hall.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42What are you after today?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- Silverware.- Something silvery. - Sparkly.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- Bright and shiny. - We're magpies, really!
0:05:48 > 0:05:52Magpies? There'll be no thieving on this show, thank you!
0:05:55 > 0:05:59- Are you looking both sides? Don't miss anything.- I'm just looking left. One side only.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10- She's nice.- She is rather nice. - She's rather nice, isn't she?
0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Is it a signed piece?- It is signed. - Well, that's good.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18It's a signed piece, Art Deco. Art Deco started in 1925.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21It ended at the beginning of the Second World War,
0:06:21 > 0:06:24then was sort of reinvented in the '40s, '50s.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- I love Art Deco.- I do. That's first period Deco.
0:06:27 > 0:06:33- Shall we ask?- Well, I love it... - I love it, too.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35I just... The worry is,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38it's worth the asking price, which is £98.
0:06:38 > 0:06:43- But buy it with your heart and I'd say nothing wrong with that. - I'd buy it for myself.- Exactly.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Would you like to try it? - Yes. Excuse me,
0:06:46 > 0:06:51what is your very, very, very best price for that vase?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- 70.- You couldn't make it 60, could you?
0:06:53 > 0:06:5565, please?
0:06:58 > 0:07:00We'll do 65, then.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- Is it worth it at 65? - It's up to you.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06I think you're a very passionate woman and I love that about you!
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Have another hold of it.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Go with your instinct and go with your heart.
0:07:11 > 0:07:15Well, my heart says yes. But shall we leave it for half an hour?
0:07:15 > 0:07:16- Yes.- Do you want to...
0:07:16 > 0:07:20- No!- Get it. You get it. - We'll get it.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- Are you happy?- Yes.- Yes.- Marvellous.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Thank you very much. - I'm happy, I'm happy!
0:07:25 > 0:07:27That's got her bit out of the way!
0:07:27 > 0:07:31Well done, blues. One item down already.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37- We quite like the look of these. They're quite retro.- What is it you like about them?
0:07:37 > 0:07:42- Silver.- The silver.- I think your breakfast set might be food for thought!
0:07:42 > 0:07:43Ha!
0:07:43 > 0:07:46It gets worse, trust me. It gets worse!
0:07:46 > 0:07:51Bad jokes aside, you need to get buying soon.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55- What do you think of this toast rack?- It's funky, isn't it? - It is funky, yeah.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- I probably would use it at home if I had it.- Yeah.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- But it doesn't... - It doesn't get you.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04- The passion isn't rising? - I've had my passion!
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Don't say you've peaked!
0:08:06 > 0:08:10There's more passion in there, I'm quite sure.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Maybe you'll be more smitten by penguins.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- I also quite like these. - Oh, they're lovely.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18They are fantastic.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21What you've got on the base are faux silver marks.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24It's silver plated with faux marks.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28- But they are fantastic.- Quite fun. - They're absolutely lovely.
0:08:28 > 0:08:33- They're new inside.- They look newer on the inside than they do on the outside.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36There's a little liner. Is that glass, the liner?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Pull it out. - I don't want to break it!
0:08:38 > 0:08:41No, it's a plastic liner.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45- So they're quite new, then. - Plastic's been around for quite some time.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47A very long time.
0:08:47 > 0:08:52- But they are very funny...- Unusual. - They're unusual, yes.- Quirky.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55So do we have a salt and a pepper? Well, not really.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57But they could be either or.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01I love the fact that you can have this beak facing forwards...
0:09:01 > 0:09:05- And this beak the other way. - If he's had an argument, they can face opposite!
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- What would be your best price on this?- You've got 45 on them.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14- 38 would be the best on them. - 38. That's the very best? - Is that the best?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17I think they are absolutely gorgeous
0:09:17 > 0:09:18and I would love to own them.
0:09:18 > 0:09:24Have them at home and use them. Every time you had dinner, you would smile when you looked at them!
0:09:24 > 0:09:27Would it be possible to ask you to hold them for half an hour?
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- Yes, I will. - Lovely. Thank you very much.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38- Do you really want to just put them on hold?- I think so because it's so early on.
0:09:38 > 0:09:43- It's easy to find this stall. - Let's keep an eye on that half-hour time span.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47I thought a bird in the hand was worth more than two in the bush.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52Now, I've spotted over here a coal scuttle. What do you think?
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Um... Big.
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Yes.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- Decorative.- Is that a good um or a "I hate it" um?
0:09:58 > 0:10:00- Um...- (I hate it!)
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Yeah. Um...
0:10:02 > 0:10:07It's not my first choice. But it looks quite weighty, quite substantial.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10It's a showy thing, isn't it? It's obviously brass.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Got this lovely embossed decoration all over it.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17The nice thing as well is you've still got the shovel in there as well.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20- It's been well-used! - Well, you expect that.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23This was made to be used, originally.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Underneath there is an interesting little mark
0:10:26 > 0:10:32- of Benham & Froud.- Right.- Very good Victorian metalworkers.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36That, to me, adds a nice bit of prestige to it.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40On the ticket we've got 235.
0:10:40 > 0:10:45I think we could get the price down to about 150, 160, something like that.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48If we get it down to 150, it might be worth a go.
0:10:48 > 0:10:49Let's ask the dealer.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53We were wondering if we could take it away for £150.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56I'll do 155 and that's the death.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58155. That's a big reduction.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00A big drop.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04It's down to you two girls. What do you think?
0:11:04 > 0:11:07- Do you think we should go for it? - Let's go for it.- Yeah.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09Very decisive!
0:11:09 > 0:11:12I think we're there. 155.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13Thank you.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17I thought it was something silver you were after, girls.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Maybe you should come and have a look at this.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24Isn't that marvellous? What we have here are two rings.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27One is a circular ring and one is ovoid.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31And they meet in the middle and they can spin independently.
0:11:31 > 0:11:36They're made of something called Old Sheffield plate,
0:11:36 > 0:11:42which is the old-fashioned way of using silver plate onto a copper core.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46The firm that used this form of construction a lot in the 18th century
0:11:46 > 0:11:51was Matthew Boulton & Co of the Soho workshops in Birmingham.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53But what's it used for?
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Well, it's made specifically to hold a dish.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Bung that bowl into that frame
0:12:00 > 0:12:05and if the bowl is coming to the table very, very hot,
0:12:05 > 0:12:09then the heat from the bowl will not scorch the top of the table.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14Traditionally, that sort of dish stand is called a dish cross.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17I've never seen a circular one like this.
0:12:17 > 0:12:22And if I turn it over like that, if you came to the table with an oval bowl,
0:12:22 > 0:12:27rather than circular, it, too, would fit into that shape.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29What's it worth?
0:12:29 > 0:12:33Well, as a rare Matthew Boulton Sheffield-plated piece,
0:12:33 > 0:12:39I guess this thing could be worth anywhere between 250 and £400 in a specialist sale.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42What would it cost you here in the Peterborough fair?
0:12:42 > 0:12:47Well, down the road, it could be yours for 60 notes!
0:12:48 > 0:12:52Now, where were we? Oh, yes, both teams are one item down with two to go.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55And time is racing on.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- Tell me why you like it? - It looks old.- It's got a feel.
0:12:59 > 0:13:05- What do you mean by feel? - It's got patina and a few knocks, so it's been used and loved.- Good.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09You could use it as a blanket box, or just to store your table linen.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I would use it as a toy chest for children.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Well, have a look inside and let's just see what it...
0:13:17 > 0:13:22- Oh. "Brush, basket and toy warehouse." - There you go. You were bang on.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24How old do you think it is?
0:13:24 > 0:13:26- It's described as Victorian. - Oh, yes.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28I see no reason why it can't be.
0:13:28 > 0:13:33"Work boxes, writing desks and a great variety of fancy articles."
0:13:33 > 0:13:38"Baskets of every description made and repainted."
0:13:38 > 0:13:42We've got a high-end quality maker in Portman Square, London,
0:13:42 > 0:13:47that were not only making really good chests and casks like this,
0:13:47 > 0:13:51but were also having them brought back in to be restored and repainted.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Can I ask your best price, please, sir?
0:13:54 > 0:13:58- Henriette, let's stand up. That was a struggle!- Who for, me?
0:13:59 > 0:14:01- 60?- No.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- 75.- I thought he was going to say, "No, 50"!
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- 75.- 70? 70?- I can't go any lower.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11- Can you go 70? - Could we go 70, darling?
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- Can we go 70?- Oh, she's checking the stock book.- She's got the book.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- Go on, give it to us for 70! - Go on, then, 70.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19Girls, have it.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23- And the other side!- She's French!
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Ooh, la la, Henriette!
0:14:26 > 0:14:28That was a bonus to the deal!
0:14:31 > 0:14:35Look at this wonderful array of sticks. One caught my eye there.
0:14:35 > 0:14:40- Which is this little beauty. - That's the plainest one!
0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Yeah.- It's a nice-looking stick,
0:14:43 > 0:14:46but there's a fantastic story attached to it as well.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49- You see the top's been hollowed out? - Yeah.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52And the bottom very cleverly unscrews.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55My understanding is that these were hollowed out
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- to actually blow...- No way!
0:14:58 > 0:15:02But little love letters across restaurants and the like!
0:15:02 > 0:15:05That's what I'm given to understand with these things.
0:15:05 > 0:15:10- What sort of money is that?- I've got 68 on it and my best would be 50.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13- £50.- £50.- OK.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16You wouldn't shave it to maybe 45?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Well...- If they promised to write you a love letter?- We would.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22£45 and a love letter!
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- Yes, 45 would be OK.- Fantastic! - That would be OK, yeah.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29- The thing is, have you fallen in love with the love letter stick? - Yes.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Oh, no!
0:15:32 > 0:15:36I just don't think there's anything casual about getting a whopping big stick out.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40There's nothing romantic about a big stick in a restaurant!
0:15:40 > 0:15:41I'm not buying it.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44- Oh, I like it. - I'm not buying the story.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48- You're hard to please! - You're very hard to please!
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Go on! You know you want to!
0:15:50 > 0:15:53Go on, Nicky! Think of the romance!
0:15:53 > 0:15:56- 45's a good price, though. - Yeah.- Go on, then.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58- You've got yourself a deal. - Thank you.
0:15:58 > 0:16:05That's another item bought by the reds and another one that fails to impress Nicky!
0:16:05 > 0:16:07I'm slightly unsold on the whole stick thing.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10But the romance will sell it for us.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I'm not convinced that was used to send love letters!
0:16:13 > 0:16:16I'm not sure I believe the story either!
0:16:17 > 0:16:21So, we've spent £200, we've got about 20 minutes left.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24- What's next on the list, girls? - Something sparkly.- Pretty.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28Sounds like something a bit more feminine will impress Nicky.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- I haven't found a naked lady. - What have you got?- Another one?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37No, a naked bloke!
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Glass. Is it pretty enough? First thoughts?
0:16:44 > 0:16:46- I like it.- Yeah.- What do you like about it?
0:16:46 > 0:16:50- The colour.- The crackle. - The crackle? Great stuff.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54I need to find out how much it is and we'll make a decision. Hang on to that.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56I'll be back in a minute!
0:16:58 > 0:17:00- Denise?- Yes?
0:17:00 > 0:17:01Oh, yes!
0:17:01 > 0:17:04I used to use that when I was a kid!
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- Right. Good news and bad news. - Right.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11The good news is it's not over-priced.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14The bad news is it's more than we've got left to spend!
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Those penguins won't hold any longer
0:17:16 > 0:17:19so the blues are on the march.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Right. Girls, do what you feel you need to do!
0:17:24 > 0:17:29- Would you possibly consider 35, if we twist your arm?- No, no.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- Backwards!- We'll sell for 38. That's the very best.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35- What do you think? - VENDOR: They're worth every penny.
0:17:35 > 0:17:39- It's decision time.- I think we go for them.- Go for them, yeah.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43- I think they're absolutely fantastic, I really do.- Lovely.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47And we're done. You're spent up, not quite. But it's tea time.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49The best time of the day!
0:17:50 > 0:17:52The blues are done and dusted.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54But what about the reds?
0:17:54 > 0:17:56- How much time have we got left? - Not a lot!
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Will they get their sparkling silver?
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Will Nicky actually like anything they buy?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Now, girls, it's not pretty.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10But it's decorative.
0:18:10 > 0:18:15- Will that cut the mustard with you? - Yeah, it's nice.- It's rather sweet. - Doesn't it need restoring?
0:18:15 > 0:18:19No, this is exactly how it's meant to be.
0:18:19 > 0:18:24It's an Edwardian poker-work hanging corner cupboard.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27It's practical and decorative.
0:18:27 > 0:18:33It's 100 years old and this whole design was made with a red-hot poker by a skilled craftsman.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38If you think of an artist, take the brush out of his hand and put a hot poker in,
0:18:38 > 0:18:41it's decorating and making that lovely design there.
0:18:41 > 0:18:46Then you've got this lovely swept shelf in there.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48So you can stand your bottle of gin there.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52Put your little tumblers and glasses in there.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56But I don't know if it's what you're after. You wanted something pretty and girly.
0:18:56 > 0:19:01- Glass, that sort of thing.- We had said furniture we would look at.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03- How much is it?- She'll take 50 quid.
0:19:03 > 0:19:08- Right.- I think someone at auction will pay a bit more than that for it.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11- Should do.- Yeah?- What are we thinking?- I like it.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15- Yeah?- It's not what I was thinking about getting as my last item.- No?
0:19:15 > 0:19:22- To be perfectly honest!- We've got five minutes. If you can find something in budget that you like,
0:19:22 > 0:19:25that ticks all the boxes, then we'll move on.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27- Hmm.- What do you think?
0:19:27 > 0:19:31- I think we have to go for it.- I like it.- All right.- I like it a lot.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33It's got flowers on it. That's pretty!
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- Sure you're not being bullied into this?- Probably!- I like it.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40- Sure?- I'm being bullied. Fine, let's go for it.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Let's give that lady 50 quid, get it loaded up and clear off!
0:19:43 > 0:19:45- Come on.- Great. Well done.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49It's all over. Three items bought with minutes remaining.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51Let's recap.
0:19:52 > 0:19:57The reds got a whopping £80 off a decorative coal scuttle.
0:19:59 > 0:20:04They romanticised about a cane. Well, not everyone did!
0:20:05 > 0:20:09And with time running out, they bought a corner cupboard, as you do!
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- You are looking so pleased with yourselves!- Yeah!
0:20:14 > 0:20:19- Why are we?- We spent quite a lot of money.- How much?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21£150. £250!
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- £250.- It's going up! - 150 or 250?- 250.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28250. That's a very good amount of money.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32- I love it when you spend up. Who's got the £50 of leftover lolly?- Me.
0:20:32 > 0:20:37Thank you. I'll take that. Will you find it a struggle to find anything?
0:20:37 > 0:20:41No, it's a diverse fair. For £50 we'll find something pretty with a bit of profit.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45- Not brown.- Sparkly.- Not brown. I'm under strict instructions!
0:20:45 > 0:20:49Coal scuttle, stick. Not brown. I'm getting the message.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Take it gently, girls, and very good luck, Nick.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the blue team have bought?
0:20:57 > 0:21:01Henriette bargained hard for that naked lady on a vase.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Then she kissed her way to a deal for a chest.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12And they went back for the penguin salt and pepper.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18- How's your French now?- Dreadful! You've witnessed my French!
0:21:18 > 0:21:20I have slightly!
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- He's improved since he met me.- Yes. - I bet he has.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25How much did you spend?
0:21:25 > 0:21:28- £173.- 173.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31So I want £127 from you. £127.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33That'll be very good, David Harper.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37- Thank you.- You're off to find something continental?
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Something with a bit of flair and panache.
0:21:40 > 0:21:45- Good job, girls. I hope David finds an excellent buy.- I'm sure he will.- Good luck!
0:21:45 > 0:21:48Meanwhile, we're heading off to Oxfordshire.
0:21:55 > 0:22:02Welcome to Stonor House, an elegant, well-proportioned stately home.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03Right?
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Wrong!
0:22:05 > 0:22:08This Georgian facade
0:22:08 > 0:22:13simply covers up a warren of rooms which date back to the 13th century.
0:22:15 > 0:22:21The Stonor family settled in this stony valley, from which they took their name,
0:22:21 > 0:22:23over 800 years ago.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26The small house and chapel were soon connected
0:22:26 > 0:22:28by a series of new rooms
0:22:28 > 0:22:32and eventually tied together with a neat facade
0:22:32 > 0:22:35creating the illusion of a grand manor house.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41The earliest surviving bit of the 13th-century house
0:22:41 > 0:22:48is here, effectively a vast masonry retaining wall.
0:22:48 > 0:22:55Because there was a cut into the hillside here and this stopped the hillside falling into the dwelling.
0:22:55 > 0:23:03It's made of napped flints. Literally, stones in the round is the flint.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07Napped is the striking process where you split them.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09So that the split ends of the flints
0:23:09 > 0:23:15are what go to make the outer surface of the wall we see today.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17Quite an impressive structure.
0:23:17 > 0:23:23And either side of the rectangle was enclosed by a colonnade,
0:23:23 > 0:23:27a colonnade that subsequently has been filled with brickwork
0:23:27 > 0:23:29which is the way we see it today.
0:23:29 > 0:23:34And this is supposed to be the earliest surviving bit
0:23:34 > 0:23:37of domestic architecture in Oxfordshire.
0:23:37 > 0:23:38Now,
0:23:38 > 0:23:45the family would have occupied an apartment at this end of the space
0:23:45 > 0:23:47and down here, this is the area
0:23:47 > 0:23:52where the chickens and pigs and peasants would have hung out,
0:23:52 > 0:23:55all making a filthy mess!
0:23:56 > 0:24:01But as the Stonor family went up in the world, they needed more space
0:24:01 > 0:24:03to entertain their influential guests.
0:24:05 > 0:24:11The Gothic Hall was added on around 1350.
0:24:11 > 0:24:17It was designed to house visiting judges and their retinues.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21It didn't, however, look much like this.
0:24:21 > 0:24:26It was about two-thirds bigger, for a kick-off.
0:24:26 > 0:24:32And what we see that looks so incredibly Gothic in this space today
0:24:32 > 0:24:38is, in fact, a confection that started to be applied to the space
0:24:38 > 0:24:41in the middle of the 18th century.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Even the objects reflect this Gothicism.
0:24:45 > 0:24:50For example, the frame around the portrait.
0:24:50 > 0:24:57That dates from the Strawberry Hill 18th-century Gothic period.
0:24:57 > 0:25:03This Gothic-style gilt brass lantern is a splendid example
0:25:03 > 0:25:05of a country house light fitting.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09In its day, the candle that would have gone into this fitting
0:25:09 > 0:25:12would have been of the very top quality.
0:25:17 > 0:25:22Even the furniture reflects this Gothic theme. Take this table.
0:25:22 > 0:25:25It's a side or serving table.
0:25:25 > 0:25:31It was made towards the end of the 18th century perhaps by Thomas Chippendale's son,
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Chippendale the Younger.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37Its proportions are incredibly plain and simple.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41But the Gothic bit is so subtle.
0:25:41 > 0:25:48If you look at the end of this fielded panel, there's an arch moulded in the end.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50All very subtle and chic.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52The big question today is,
0:25:52 > 0:25:57are our teams over at the auction going to be both subtle and chic?
0:26:05 > 0:26:10I can't tell you how glorious it is to be in Lincoln fair city
0:26:10 > 0:26:12with my old mate, Colin Young.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14Pleasure to have you back, Tim.
0:26:14 > 0:26:19Now, Nicky and Donna, for the reds, went with this famous coal scuttle.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23- Yes.- Which is a splendid example of Benham and Froud.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26That's the added bonus with the name,
0:26:26 > 0:26:30but I think it's going to be a bit of a struggler when it comes to the sale.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34We've had even the best examples of these go through sales
0:26:34 > 0:26:39and they just don't seem to make a great deal of money now.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41We've put an estimate on it of 40 to 70
0:26:41 > 0:26:43to get everybody interested.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46I knew there'd be some pain coming back on this!
0:26:46 > 0:26:50I must admit I can't remember the last time I saw one of these make over 100.
0:26:50 > 0:26:53They paid £155 for this.
0:26:53 > 0:26:58- Yes.- If you seriously only get 40 to 70, there will be so much pain about!
0:26:58 > 0:27:01- A lot of pain on that one. - Now, what about this stick?
0:27:01 > 0:27:06Yes. Interesting comments that it's for housing love letters
0:27:06 > 0:27:09or some story as such.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12- Does this ring true with you?- Not really, but it's a wonderful story!
0:27:12 > 0:27:15What you've got there
0:27:15 > 0:27:20is a standard stick which has got a later embellishment on the bottom
0:27:20 > 0:27:22which is nothing to do with it.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26Silver mounts on it, marked sterling. I think 30 to £50.
0:27:26 > 0:27:30- OK, fine. £45 is what they paid, which is fair enough. - Very reasonable.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34The last item for the reds is this poker-work corner cupboard.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37Hmm. Yep. Um...
0:27:37 > 0:27:42Corner cupboards, of late, have been struggling a little bit.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Now you can buy a half-decent Georgian example
0:27:45 > 0:27:47for 100 to £150.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51I think on a Victorian example such as that,
0:27:51 > 0:27:55you'd probably be looking maybe 40 to £60 now.
0:27:55 > 0:27:56Well, they paid 50.
0:27:56 > 0:28:01- The big dark hole opening up underneath this team is the coal scuttle.- Yes.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05They'll need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08Nicky and Donna, you spent a magnificent £250.
0:28:08 > 0:28:13You only gave him £50. Nicholas, what did you spend it on?
0:28:13 > 0:28:15Are you ready for this?
0:28:15 > 0:28:16BOTH: Ooh!
0:28:18 > 0:28:20That was a nice reaction!
0:28:20 > 0:28:22- I approve of that! - A typical female reaction!
0:28:23 > 0:28:27A pretty object for two pretty ladies. What do you think?
0:28:27 > 0:28:29- Lovely.- Sparkly!- Isn't it?- Yes!
0:28:29 > 0:28:33I have to say they're not all high-value gemstones.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34They're rhinestones.
0:28:34 > 0:28:39But it's a bit of mid-20th-century designer costume jewellery.
0:28:39 > 0:28:44- On the budget we had, that's all you get! But it's pretty, though. - How much did you spend?
0:28:44 > 0:28:46- £36.- Ah!
0:28:46 > 0:28:47And what's it going to make us?
0:28:47 > 0:28:52Well, it's probably worth about 40 to 50 quid, I'd have thought.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57- It's nice, though.- It's slim. But it's pretty.- Yes. Well done.
0:28:57 > 0:29:03Two satisfied customers there, Nick. We're predicting a ten to 20 profit on it.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05So treasure those words.
0:29:05 > 0:29:10Meanwhile, for the audience at home, let's see what the auctioneer thinks about Nick's pendant.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13- There we go, Colin.- Thank you.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16Something for you to wear at the weekend!
0:29:16 > 0:29:17Yes!
0:29:17 > 0:29:20- Hollycraft, it says on the back. - Yes.- 1953.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23- It's paste, isn't it?- It is.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26Paste costume jewellery is incredibly popular.
0:29:26 > 0:29:30Absolutely. Plenty of buyers out there when it comes to auction.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33We've put an estimate on it of ten to £30.
0:29:33 > 0:29:39Nick Hall paid £36 for it in the fond hope it will make that extra special profit
0:29:39 > 0:29:41to help his team out.
0:29:41 > 0:29:43We shall see.
0:29:43 > 0:29:46Anyway, that's it for the reds. Now for the blues.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49Their first item is the Orrefors vase.
0:29:49 > 0:29:53Standard Swedish glass that we see plenty of in the sale room.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56Good subject matter, modern design.
0:29:56 > 0:29:5820 to £40.
0:29:58 > 0:29:59£65 paid.
0:29:59 > 0:30:03So I'm afraid they've gone rather over the top with that.
0:30:03 > 0:30:07- Could be a bit of pain there. - That is the top, top retail price.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09No space for a profit there.
0:30:09 > 0:30:14Next up, and completely different, is this domed chest.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18I don't know how you find these things, Colin, but the ones with the domed tops,
0:30:18 > 0:30:21people don't want. The flat-topped ones they do.
0:30:21 > 0:30:26Yes, that's how it changed. People are using them as coffee tables and storage
0:30:26 > 0:30:29and there's not a lot you can store that won't fall off that.
0:30:29 > 0:30:35Or putting it in a child's bedroom to store toys. All those little studs on the top.
0:30:35 > 0:30:41And splinters, and dome topped, it's not PC for the kids.
0:30:41 > 0:30:46- No.- So what have you put on it? - We've put an estimate of 30 to £50.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50£70 they paid. So they've overpaid on that. That's two overpaid.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Now, what about these novelty cruets?
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Right.
0:30:55 > 0:31:00Really good-looking things. I love these fun-type objects.
0:31:00 > 0:31:04I must admit I was disappointed when I opened them up
0:31:04 > 0:31:07and saw plastic liners rather than a glass liner.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11That sort of lowers the scale of where you think they're going to be.
0:31:12 > 0:31:18- But I think there'll be plenty of people that want them and our estimate is 30 to £50.- Fine.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22£38 they paid. So that's their only hope that they'll make a small profit.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25They'll definitely need their bonus buy. Let's have a look at it.
0:31:26 > 0:31:32You spent £173, yes? That means you gave the boy £127.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34He has been out. Alors!
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Absolutely.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38The most delicious item.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41- That is the nicest thing I've bought in months.- That's an ashtray!
0:31:41 > 0:31:45It's more than just an ashtray. It's silver-topped,
0:31:45 > 0:31:47crystal glass bowl,
0:31:47 > 0:31:51something to hold in the hand. And just look under the lip.
0:31:51 > 0:31:55- It says Tiffany & Co. - Ooh!- Lovely!- Lovely!
0:31:55 > 0:31:58- How super-stylish is that? - That is gorgeous!
0:31:58 > 0:32:03The effect I have on women, Tim, is amazing! Just mention Tiffany's!
0:32:03 > 0:32:07Date-wise, it's the height of Art Deco, circa 1930.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10It is high quality, it's exquisite
0:32:10 > 0:32:13and I know smoking isn't exactly PC, but it's still collected.
0:32:13 > 0:32:18- It's decorative. You could have earrings in it.- How much did you pay?
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- The bargain of a lifetime. - Come on, tell me!
0:32:21 > 0:32:24- Have a guess.- I don't know.
0:32:24 > 0:32:25£50?
0:32:25 > 0:32:27It would be a steal at that.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29- 80?- 26!
0:32:29 > 0:32:31- Really?- I'll give you another kiss!
0:32:34 > 0:32:38- I'm going to buy more of these, Tim! - Are you jealous?- I am!
0:32:38 > 0:32:41Oh, Tim!
0:32:42 > 0:32:46- Anyway, we're happy with that, girls.- Very happy.- Don't pick it now,
0:32:46 > 0:32:52pick it later if you want to. For the audience at home, let's see what the auctioneer thinks of it.
0:32:53 > 0:32:57- OK, Colin? Nice colour blue, isn't it?- A wonderful blue.
0:32:57 > 0:33:01Condition overall is pretty good.
0:33:01 > 0:33:06Once you get any damage on this sort of enamel, it knocks the value down dramatically.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10Looking round it, lovely wheel-cut engraving.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Marked Tiffany. I think that's a fabulous item.
0:33:15 > 0:33:17- It's got a lot going for it. - An awful lot.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20We always look at things with a critical eye,
0:33:20 > 0:33:24and I can't really say anything negative about it.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27That is lovely, isn't it? He paid £26 for it. What's it worth?
0:33:27 > 0:33:29I think that's fantastic!
0:33:29 > 0:33:33We've put an estimate on it of 50 to 80,
0:33:33 > 0:33:36and I thought I was being conservative at that.
0:33:36 > 0:33:42I can easily see that making £100, 150. It wouldn't surprise me. It's a great little item.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45For Harper to pay 26, that's very clever of him.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47If the team decide they're going to go with it!
0:33:47 > 0:33:50Great excitement. Thank you very much, Colin.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52Good luck on the rostrum!
0:33:58 > 0:34:01- Nicky and Donna, how are you both? - Fine, Tim.
0:34:01 > 0:34:05- Are you at all nervous? - Yes!- Just a little!
0:34:05 > 0:34:08- Why's that, Nicky?- I think we're going to crash and burn!- Do you?
0:34:08 > 0:34:10We've spent a lot of money.
0:34:10 > 0:34:14Most of which you blew on the coal scuttle.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17The auctioneer's estimate is 40 to 70.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18Ooh.
0:34:19 > 0:34:25Lot 176 is the Benham and Froud coal scuttle and shovel to go with it.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27A very fine example of Victoriana.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Who'll start me at £50 for it? 50?
