0:00:02 > 0:00:04'Here are today's Bargain Hunt headlines.'
0:00:04 > 0:00:06It has been confirmed
0:00:06 > 0:00:10that Catherine Southon is helping the Red team.
0:00:10 > 0:00:15News has just come in that Thomas Plant is supporting the Blues.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17And now, finally,
0:00:17 > 0:00:21let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:42 > 0:00:47'The venue for our show - Lewes in the heart of Sussex.'
0:00:50 > 0:00:52'Coming up...'
0:00:54 > 0:00:59'Catherine can't get her own way.'
0:00:59 > 0:01:01I really hate it. That would be my worst nightmare.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04'Thomas cracks the whip.'
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Back!
0:01:08 > 0:01:11'And it's all thrills and spills at the auction.'
0:01:11 > 0:01:13- Oh...- Got a bargain.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- Come on, come on! - That's a hell of a loss.
0:01:16 > 0:01:17Yay!
0:01:17 > 0:01:21I think it's about time we met those teams, don't you?
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Paul, how did you two meet?
0:01:27 > 0:01:31We met in a china shop in Brighton.
0:01:31 > 0:01:35I'd relocated from Devon to Brighton
0:01:35 > 0:01:40and in the move, my entire crockery case was smashed.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44So I went in to this shop in North Street, Brighton,
0:01:44 > 0:01:49and out of a thunderbolt or a strike of lightning, there he was. That's how met.
0:01:49 > 0:01:56- And you're married?- We've had a civil partnership ceremony, yes. - Yeah. That's fantastic.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Terry, you're in property management, is that right? - Yes, Tim.
0:01:59 > 0:02:05- Tell us about that.- I would call myself a private housekeeper, a posher title.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08I go in, I clean, shop, do ironing...
0:02:08 > 0:02:13These are for people who aren't necessarily living full-time in their properties.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Full-time people that are working all day.
0:02:16 > 0:02:21- I go in and I've got keys to the properties and...- Brilliant. - I do whatever they need to be done.
0:02:21 > 0:02:26- Paul, there's nothing you like more that rummaging around in the market. - I do like a good rummage.
0:02:26 > 0:02:32My best success would be the purchase of a walnut sideboard
0:02:32 > 0:02:38in Torquay for £75, and I sold it for £500.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42- An experience which we hope you're going to replicate today. - So do I, sir.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47- Any profit would be nice. - That's the spirit, that's what we like to hear.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- Very good luck with that. - Thank you.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Now, Val, how did you two meet?
0:02:51 > 0:02:56We met when I was directing Bloody Jack for Rustington Players.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01Patsy was the prompt and she held it all together for me.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- So you're both Thespians, are you? - We're both Thespians, yeah.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08- And you collect a range of things, Val.- Yes, I do.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12- Including some oddball items. - Yes, would you like to see them?
0:03:12 > 0:03:17- Yes, let's have a bird's eye. - I brought some small ones. They're called hagstones.
0:03:17 > 0:03:22And if you see, it must take a hell of a long time
0:03:22 > 0:03:25for those holes to appear in the stones.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28And they take a lot of finding on the beach.
0:03:28 > 0:03:33Yes. So you wander up and down the beach trying to find stones with holes in them?
0:03:33 > 0:03:37I'm trying to find the perfect hagstone. And it's quite cosmic.
0:03:37 > 0:03:42- Patsy, what are your tactics going to be today? - Buy what we like.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- Not let Val bully me into buying what she likes.- Right.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- So resisting Val is a big part of your strategy?- Gosh, yeah!
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- So we'll have a bit of sparking between you? - We are, by the looks of it.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56- That's what I like the sound of. - Yes.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01Anyway, here's the money moment. Here's your £300. You know the rules, your experts await,
0:04:01 > 0:04:04- and off you go and very, very, very good luck!- Bye!
0:04:04 > 0:04:07Hagstones, indeed.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11WESTERN FILM STYLE MUSIC
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Hello! Have a nice shop. - OK, see you later.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40- See you later. Bye!- Bye!
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- Oh, it's like an Aladdin's cave. - It is.
0:04:44 > 0:04:49- That little silver buckle. - Let's look for something a little bit bolder.
0:04:49 > 0:04:55- I don't want silver.- So you're going to be rebellious, are you?
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- We are, yes.- Of course we are. We'll spend every penny.
0:05:11 > 0:05:16- Oh!- Oh! This is James Dixon & Sons, a good maker.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- We've got a hunting flask, a hip flask.- That's nice.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24- We've got a little thing there for your little sarnies. - LAUGHS:- Very small.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Is it marked at all? Is it silver or...?
0:05:27 > 0:05:29- Plated.- It's probably plated, yeah.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33I love the fact that it's shaped like the case. It's beautiful.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- It's a lovely quality one. - What price?
0:05:35 > 0:05:40Ouch, it's a bit... What can you do on that? It's £160.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45- The best trade on it would be 140. - 140? Really?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- It should be 145, but we'll make it 140.- 140, 120?
0:05:48 > 0:05:51- No, no. 140. - It was worth a shot, wasn't it?
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- That is nice. What do you think of the price, though? - I think it's lovely.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58But I'm not sure if it would make a profit, really.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02- But lovely quality. It's something to remember. - It was nice.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06'Well, you'll certainly remember the price, Catherine.'
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Back!
0:06:08 > 0:06:11'You keep them in line, Thomas.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13'There must be something pretty around here.'
0:06:15 > 0:06:17'Maybe not.'
0:06:17 > 0:06:20- That's quirky. I like that. - How much is that?
0:06:20 > 0:06:25- Isn't that marvellous? - It's marvellous. That is... Hee-hee-hee! Love it.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29The Margaret Thatcher teapot by Luck and Flaw.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31It's another Spitting Image character.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34They had Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan as well.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39They are quite widely collected within the political world, and there are political collectors.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43- Circa 1980, so it's 31 years old. - I love it.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46It's good fun, isn't it? Whatever you think of her, it's great.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- I admired her, actually. - Of course, yeah. Absolutely.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51I think that is brilliant. What's the price?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54It's a lot of money. These always are a lot of money.
0:06:54 > 0:06:59- They're £175, I mean, it is far too...- But we have £300. - You have £300, yeah.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01But do you want to blow that much on...
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- We wouldn't pay that. - Yeah, but you're not going to get him down to...
0:07:05 > 0:07:10- What would we get him down to? - They always sell at between 120 and 180. That's what they sell at.
0:07:10 > 0:07:16- So we'd need to get it for 100. He's not going to come down £75. - I would be surprised if he does.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18I personally think that's too much of a gamble.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22- But it's great fun. Do you want me to go and ask? - Yes, please do.
0:07:22 > 0:07:27'Get on with it then, Thomas. Val and Patsy are racing ahead.'
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- I like those.- So do I.- What do you think?- I do. I do like them.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- That's too expensive.- I think it's too expensive, but I quite like it.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- Let's have the bad news first. - There's no bad news.- Good!
0:07:39 > 0:07:43- Good news and good news! - There's no bad news. £125.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- £125.- What do you think? - That's 50 quid off. That's not bad.
0:07:46 > 0:07:51- What do you think?- I like it, but it's a team effort.- Yeah.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55- Do you want to go for Mrs T? - Yeah.- Yeah!- Do you feel she represents you?
0:07:55 > 0:08:00- Yeah. We're good.- Yes, yes! We're quirky.- Cos you're fun. - Brilliant, we'll do it.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02'You certainly are, Val.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05'First purchase for the Blue team.'
0:08:06 > 0:08:10'Nothing yet for the Reds. Can you smell a bargain, Catherine?'
0:08:11 > 0:08:17- Leather-cased enamel top bottle. Can you see it's like an engine-turned...?- Is it?
0:08:17 > 0:08:22- Yeah, it's engine-turned and it's got that nice little pattern on it. - That's nice, isn't it?
0:08:22 > 0:08:26- And the stopper looks original. - It's original.- It is, isn't it?
0:08:26 > 0:08:31- It fits nicely.- I wonder what his best price would...
0:08:31 > 0:08:37- What would your best be on...?- £43. - £40?- No, I can't, really.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40£43. I think it's worth £40-50.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Shall we think? - BOTH: Yes.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45- Shall me move on?- Yes.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49'Putting it off again, boys? Oh dear, oh dear.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52'The girls are lining up another item already.'
0:08:54 > 0:08:56- It's a powder... - Is it for talcum powder?
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- It's Deco, isn't it? A lovely finial.- That is nice.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03This would be for your dressing table. You put your rings in there, or anything.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08It's properly cut, yeah. Proper piece of cut glass and definitely Deco.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10- £25.- Ah, yes.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Look at that lovely finial. Lovely cut design.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18- Isn't that great?- Love it. - Good-looking thing, isn't it?- Yes.
0:09:18 > 0:09:23- Do you want to ask about the price or do you want to carry on looking? - No, I think we like that.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- We like it.- If we can get it for £20.- You like it, do you?
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- OK, we might get two items quite quickly.- Yeah.
0:09:29 > 0:09:34- We could spend a bit of time on the third item.- If it comes out at us, we could buy it.- It's jumped out.
0:09:34 > 0:09:40- This jar and cover, you've got £25 on it.- £25, yes.
0:09:40 > 0:09:45- What's the best on that? - I think 20 quid is reasonable. - 20 quid. That's not bad, actually.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49- It looks in good condition as well. - It will be, yes.- That's good. Good thing, that.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52- What do you want to do, girls? - Go for it. Thank you.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54- Another one down. - Yes. Thank you very much.
0:09:54 > 0:10:00'Well, I never. The Blues have already got their second buy. You're falling behind, Reds!'
0:10:00 > 0:10:05- The lowest, lowest, lowest you could go.- £180.- £180?
0:10:06 > 0:10:10- £100. I say yes.- You just said no! - I changed my mind.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Do you think we should go and buy that first bottle? - BOTH: Yes.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19- How much was that?- £43.- £43, yes.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- See if you can get it for £40.- OK.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25'Give it a go, boys, eh?'
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Would you go to £40?
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- Or £42?- No, £43.- OK.
0:10:31 > 0:10:37- Catherine?- Yeah.- He won't go any lower than £43, but we think yes, let's go for it.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39OK, let's go for it. Then we've got one item.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43'Hurrah! That's the Reds on their way.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47'Now, come and have a look at what I found. I might even save you some money.'
0:10:47 > 0:10:52Do you ever get fed up with paying huge amounts of money
0:10:52 > 0:10:56for curtain material and wallpaper?
0:10:56 > 0:11:01Well, if you do, you should come and mosey around some of these antiques stands.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Because you could be doing it yourself.
0:11:04 > 0:11:10Take this fellow. It's soft wood. It's been carved out of the solid
0:11:10 > 0:11:13with these incredibly intricate designs.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Not only have you cut out this pattern,
0:11:16 > 0:11:20which seems to be the stalk and foliage of a small plant,
0:11:20 > 0:11:23but you've also cut down into the block
0:11:23 > 0:11:28so that each one of these designs stands well proud.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32You then cover the surface in ink.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35In this case, last time it was used, it was red ink,
0:11:35 > 0:11:41and then simply apply the wet-inked block to the surface of material,
0:11:41 > 0:11:45plonk it down and then remove it, hey presto,
0:11:45 > 0:11:48revealing the beginning of your design.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52Included in this group is this block. Similar technique, look,
0:11:52 > 0:11:58except this time, carved out of the solid, we've got a stylized tree
0:11:58 > 0:12:02that has been printed in black.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06If you fancied a more striped effect, have a look at this block.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10We've got three lines of taut foliage,
0:12:10 > 0:12:13effectively making borders.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15And if you were to apply this to your walls,
0:12:15 > 0:12:18you'd create a series of Regency stripes.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21But what would these things cost you?
0:12:21 > 0:12:25Well, if you were lucky, you'd do a deal with the storeholder,
0:12:25 > 0:12:30who'd let you have all three for £15 each.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33And while you're on the story, why not simply pick up
0:12:33 > 0:12:37another decorative block? Not used for printing purposes,
0:12:37 > 0:12:43but used originally in an Indian or Middle Eastern interior
0:12:43 > 0:12:47as a bit of coffering to decorate a timber ceiling.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48Look at the surface.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52I mean, how many times has this been decorated in oil paint?
0:12:52 > 0:12:57This panel must be at least 150 years old.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00And how much would an antique block like this cost you?
0:13:00 > 0:13:04Well, that too could be yours for £15.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08You see, it's all a question of identifying
0:13:08 > 0:13:11the correct chip of the old block.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16'Right then, boys! Spotted anything yet?'
0:13:16 > 0:13:20- £115 is a lot of money.- Oh...
0:13:20 > 0:13:21Now, what's this here?
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- Is there anything up there? - No, let's get out of here.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29I'm actually loving this one today, although Paul is a little indecisive.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33One minute he's a definite yes, then he's a, "No, I don't think I like that."
0:13:33 > 0:13:36But I think we're going to buy these quite easily.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43THEY SING AND GIGGLE
0:13:45 > 0:13:47VAL GIGGLES
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- Look at that! - It's the wrong colour, darling.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- I think it's quite nice, that mint green. - THEY GIGGLE
0:13:52 > 0:13:56They're brilliant, aren't they? Full of energy. They're great fun.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00And quick decision-makers. If they like something, they're going to go for it.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04- How are you doing, then? - So, Southon... Well, we've bought two items.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08- Two?- Two, yeah.- We've bought one. - Really? What have you bought?
0:14:08 > 0:14:11A very nice thing. You'll see it at the auction.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- You're not going to tell me? Not let me into a secret?- No, no, no.
0:14:14 > 0:14:20- Is it ceramic? Metal?- No, I'm not telling you anything, Thomas. You'll just have to wait and see.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Disappointment.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25'Play nicely, you two.'
0:14:25 > 0:14:30- Oh, I say.- Art Deco, 1930s...- Yes. I would have that for...- Clock.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33- Yes.- Would you? You'd buy that?
0:14:33 > 0:14:35- I would definitely buy that. - Does it work?
0:14:35 > 0:14:40Well, the chime obviously works. It just needs to be reset.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43I'm not sure that it is 1930s, actually. It might be later.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47- It has got the style.- Yeah. - That's the main thing, isn't it?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- You would buy that, would you? - Not at that price,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52but as time is running out...
0:14:52 > 0:14:54What about all that damage around there?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57From a distance...
0:14:57 > 0:15:00That's it, Tel. There you go. What damage, where?
0:15:00 > 0:15:03We've just got to shimmy along a bit, haven't we?
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- So I'm saying yes on that. - I think...- Do you like it?- Yeah.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Really?- We both do. You don't have to, but we do.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- See what you think of this. - Shall I come as well?
0:15:15 > 0:15:19- Or is it just the girlfriend? - Yes, please.- Come on, Thomas.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- So this is it? This is what I've been dragged to see?- Sorry.
0:15:24 > 0:15:28- No, no, it's OK.- It's Dobbin! - "It's Dobbin..."
0:15:28 > 0:15:30He's got a bit of age, hasn't he?
0:15:30 > 0:15:33- He's missing one stirrup. - I hadn't noticed that.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36It's not the end of the world. He's marked up at £89.
0:15:36 > 0:15:42He's got lovely little eyes, look. He's got a sweet little face.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44I think they're probably replacements.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48Yeah, that's a replacement. One is glass and one is plastic.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51What do you like about it?
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- I've got a new grandchild, and I just thought, you know...- Yeah.
0:15:54 > 0:15:58They are very emotive. I mean, it is a lovely thing,
0:15:58 > 0:16:00but we've got a bit more time,
0:16:00 > 0:16:04- so we can keep it as a sort of backstop.- OK.- Yeah?- Right.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- What is your best price? - What's the asking price?- It's £45.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14It should be £40. We'll do £35 on it.
0:16:14 > 0:16:19- Oh dear... You couldn't go to £30? Oh, go on.- Shouldn't do,
0:16:19 > 0:16:22- but as it's you, 30 quid. - £30. You'll get a return on that.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Do you really like it?- Yes. - Go for it, then.- OK.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- That's a yes.- Thank you very much.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31'Paul takes charge. That's the Reds' second item.'
0:16:31 > 0:16:32I hate that clock.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35I really hate it. That would be my worst nightmare.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39But they're happy, so what can you do?
0:16:43 > 0:16:46It's a portrait miniature of a young girl,
0:16:46 > 0:16:50- probably done in the 1920s, 1930s. More 1930s, this dress.- Yeah.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- That's the style of the hair. - Lovely face, nice tulips.
0:16:53 > 0:16:54It's an engagement one as well,
0:16:54 > 0:16:58cos she's got an engagement ring just there, you see?
0:16:58 > 0:17:00"Miniature on ivory, 1930s."
0:17:00 > 0:17:04- We can buy ivory from this date, cos it's pre-1947.- It is.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Yeah, so it's old enough to be bought.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09It's a good thing. It's quite pretty.
0:17:09 > 0:17:15It's not signed by anybody. It's probably the family's portrait artist.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18This was a travelling one.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- Does it come out of the case? - It will come out.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23If it's in the catalogue and there's no famous names,
0:17:23 > 0:17:25is it going to attract any attention?
0:17:25 > 0:17:27No, cos they're quite popular, these miniatures,
0:17:27 > 0:17:31and it's of a pretty girl. £185.
0:17:31 > 0:17:32THEY GASP
0:17:32 > 0:17:36- We haven't got that. - What's the very best on that?- £160.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39- You couldn't do a bit more? - 150, then.
0:17:39 > 0:17:44- 140?- No, can't go that far. - Can't go 140?- We'll go between. 145.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47145. What do you want to do?
0:17:47 > 0:17:51At 145 you've got an opportunity of making a profit.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- A small profit, not a big profit. - No, no.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- It's a lovely item. - And she's beautiful.- She is.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- She's delicate.- She's lovely. - We'll go for it.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03- You want to go for it? - Yeah, we're hungry. - We're going to go for it. Yes.
0:18:03 > 0:18:08- £145.- Thank you. - Thank you very much. Brilliant.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12- She is beautiful.- So that's three items done.- Yeah, finished!
0:18:12 > 0:18:16- And you've £290, and you've left me with a tenner.- Yeah.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- Cheers.- Good luck!
0:18:18 > 0:18:23'That's the Blues all done. But £10 for your bonus buy?
0:18:23 > 0:18:24'No pressure, Tom!'
0:18:24 > 0:18:29- This would have been a better buy. I hate that clock. - Well, in your opinion.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32- Nice little lid.- Mm-hmm.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36You're not convinced, are you? Refracting telescope.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39Three-draw. It's got a name on there, Chadburn Bros. £25.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- Is there a profit in it? - I think we could get a profit in that.- Yeah?
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Whereas I would rather go back and have a look at the Dixon...
0:18:47 > 0:18:49The James Dixon & Sons flask?
0:18:49 > 0:18:53- It is a bit of a risk one. - Yeah, but we like to take a risk.
0:18:53 > 0:18:54- Do you?- Absolutely.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57What's your final decision - this or the James Dixon?
0:18:57 > 0:19:02- Dixon.- Dixon?- Off we go, tally-ho! - Let's go for the Dixon. Tally-ho!
0:19:02 > 0:19:04'Nice and decisive, Terry.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07'Good to see you're both focused on the bargains.'
0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Come on, Paul!- Paul! - You're gorgeous.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Paul? Paul!- I'm talking to the dog!
0:19:12 > 0:19:15- We've only got about eight minutes! - 'Hmm... Spoke to soon.'
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- I love it, I absolutely love it. - She does, she absolutely loves it.
0:19:21 > 0:19:27- But the price puts me off.- What would be your best?- One minute. - Your lowest price possible?
0:19:27 > 0:19:31- The trade on it is £145, but... - Yes, but?- We can go down to 140.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35- 140.- Can we do 130?- No. - 135?- No, unfortunately...
0:19:35 > 0:19:40- 137,50? 138?- No, unfortunately we can only do 140. WHISPERS:- Damn!
0:19:40 > 0:19:44- OK. Take a risk!- Well, if we've got one minute... We've got no time.
0:19:44 > 0:19:49- Yeah?- Yes, but I'm happy to take that.- £140?- Yes, please. Thank you very much, sir.
0:19:49 > 0:19:55'Finally, the Red team have done it. All three items ready for the auction.'
0:19:55 > 0:20:01Now the shopping's over, the experts can head out to find their bonus buys,
0:20:01 > 0:20:06spending all that leftover lolly, but how much cash will the teams leave each expert?
0:20:06 > 0:20:07First up, the Reds.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11'For £43 there could be a splash of profit
0:20:11 > 0:20:14'with the gentleman's scent bottle.
0:20:14 > 0:20:19'Catherine's least favourite mantel clock cost them £30.
0:20:19 > 0:20:24'And last of all, £140 bought them the leather hunting case.'
0:20:24 > 0:20:28- Guys, what that a good shop or not? - It was.- It was fun.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32- How much did you spend?- £213. - Did you?- Yes.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36- Would that be £87 of leftover lolly, then?- I do hope so, sir.- Oh, look.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- Oh, look at that.- And there's your change.- Thank you very much.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Which piece is going to bring the biggest profit, Terry?
0:20:42 > 0:20:48- I would like to say the Dixon's sandwich and flask set.- Yeah.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52- You would like to say that. - But it might not. - It might not, yeah.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56- So what are you going to say, then? - The Dixon & Sons flask.
0:20:56 > 0:21:01- Here you go, Catherine.- Thank you. - There's your pile of dosh, darling. - Lovely.- Good luck.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04I should go inside and warm up, love, cos it's getting rather cold.
0:21:04 > 0:21:09Anyway, good luck with that, guys. Why don't we check out what the Blue team bought?
0:21:09 > 0:21:15'At £125, I hope this lady is for turning...a profit.'
0:21:15 > 0:21:19'They were quick off the mark with the cut-glass powder bowl for £20.'
0:21:21 > 0:21:27'And will the Art Deco miniature be a BOOTY at the auction for £145?'
0:21:27 > 0:21:30You spent nearly all the dosh. How much?
0:21:30 > 0:21:35- £290.- That's really good going, that's really good.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38And tell me, which is your favourite piece?
0:21:38 > 0:21:42I liked the crystal powder bowl.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Out of both of you. What about you, Val?
0:21:44 > 0:21:48The Maggie Thatcher teapot. It's just so quirky!
0:21:48 > 0:21:54- OK. That's your favourite. Which is going to bring the biggest profit? - The powder bowl.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- Most probably right. - Most probably right.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Who's got the £10 of leftover lolly, please?
0:21:59 > 0:22:01- THEY ALL LAUGH - Thank you.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05I take the money from a girl and I give it to you, like the taxman.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09- £10.- You take it with one hand and give it back with the other.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12- That's not much, Tom, is it? - Not much at all, but you know,
0:22:12 > 0:22:15I've met some really nice people in the antique shops.
0:22:15 > 0:22:20- I'm sure they'll do me a deal on something.- Good luck, girls. Good luck, Tom.
0:22:20 > 0:22:25Meanwhile, I'm heading off west to Brighton, just up the coast.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Somewhere really regal.
0:22:34 > 0:22:40In the early 19th century, George Prince of Wales created a pleasure palace
0:22:40 > 0:22:43here in the centre of Brighton.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47200 years on, it's still going strong.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50'Not bad, eh?'
0:22:57 > 0:23:02'Head indoors, and it's clear that George loved the finer things in life.'
0:23:04 > 0:23:12And he created a banqueting hall fit for a king, or at least a king-in-waiting.
0:23:12 > 0:23:19The banqueting room is essentially, in decorative terms, the creation of Robert Jones.
0:23:19 > 0:23:25The walls are dominated by a series of paintings with oriental themes.
0:23:29 > 0:23:34The dome above is utterly sublime.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38What we have here is a series of fronds of foliage
0:23:38 > 0:23:41that are from the plantain tree,
0:23:41 > 0:23:45essentially an exotic, eastern tree,
0:23:45 > 0:23:47which would have reminded the Prince Regent
0:23:47 > 0:23:50of his empire in the East.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53As if he needed reminding, though.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56Look at the elaborate and extraordinary structures
0:23:56 > 0:23:58that go to make up these chandeliers,
0:23:58 > 0:24:05the centre one weighing over a ton, and again designed by Robert Jones.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09But these aren't the only light fittings in this extraordinary room.
0:24:15 > 0:24:19Because running up either side of the banqueting room
0:24:19 > 0:24:22are these magnificent standard lamps,
0:24:22 > 0:24:27the like of which you are not going to find anywhere else in the world.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30We've got a combination of materials here,
0:24:30 > 0:24:35between porcelain and gilt bronze, the porcelain being made by Spode
0:24:35 > 0:24:39and the metalwork being made by Benjamin Lewis Vulliamy,
0:24:39 > 0:24:45the celebrated metalworker and clock case maker.
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Seriously bonkers and glitzy.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01But the glitz here at Brighton simply goes on and on,
0:25:01 > 0:25:05because the sideboards here in the banqueting room
0:25:05 > 0:25:07are just laden with silver gilt.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Now, the Prince Regent loved everything gilt.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14He loved his silver not plain silvery, but covered in gold.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18He even had the rigging on the royal yacht gilt,
0:25:18 > 0:25:21he loved it so much.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24The pieces that we see on display here today
0:25:24 > 0:25:26are what are called ambassadorial plate.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Because in the old days,
0:25:29 > 0:25:33if you were an ambassador or envoy representing your sovereign abroad,
0:25:33 > 0:25:37you were presented, at the time that you went off on your mission,
0:25:37 > 0:25:41with silver plate to take with you.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43It was provided by Rundell, Bridge and Rundell
0:25:43 > 0:25:47and has the hallmark of Paul Storr.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51And quite frankly, you don't get any better than that.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Interestingly, during this period,
0:25:54 > 0:25:59if you were the ambassador and you retired from your position abroad,
0:25:59 > 0:26:02you were allowed to keep the silver gilt.
0:26:02 > 0:26:08It was called a perquisite, hence the word, today, "perk".
0:26:08 > 0:26:10A big question today is, of course,
0:26:10 > 0:26:16are there going to be many perks for our teams over at the auction?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29Well, it's a treat to be here in Wisborough Green at Bellmans Saleroom,
0:26:29 > 0:26:34- with my old mucker Jonathan Pratt. Good morning, Jonathan.- Welcome. - Lovely to be here.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Now, first up with Terry and Paul
0:26:37 > 0:26:42is this wee gentleman's square leather-cased perfume bottle.
0:26:42 > 0:26:43I quite like this.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47I like the quality that they make in their leather boxes
0:26:47 > 0:26:49to fit these things. It's nice quality.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52It's made to be durable. Silver would be better.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56There's a slight blemish to the enamel, otherwise it's in nice condition.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59There's a tear running slightly down the side of the...
0:26:59 > 0:27:01A tear in the leather, yeah.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04It's limited in its value because you want it to be silver.
0:27:04 > 0:27:08- What's your estimate?- £20-30. - £43 paid.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10- Terry found it, he loved it.- Good.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13Anyway, it's not looking good.
0:27:13 > 0:27:18Next is this archetypical 1930s mantel clock, isn't it?
0:27:18 > 0:27:23It's really late Deco with the chromed metal numbers on the front.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24It just looks the part.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28And there is a retro feel going on in the market at the moment,
0:27:28 > 0:27:29so who knows?
0:27:29 > 0:27:32- Where do you come from money-wise? - £30-40.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34£30 paid, so they paid the right price for it.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36The next thing I really like.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38I think this is just the most super thing.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40- Do you like it?- It's great quality.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43- Dixons are good makers. - Good Sheffield maker.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47I like the fact that the shape to the spirit flask is really sweet
0:27:47 > 0:27:51to make it fit in to that domed case. A lot of thought goes into it.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54You're going to have to be quite brave with your estimate with this.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57Because Catherine's going what they call quite strongly on it.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Who's going to buy it? You're not going to use it, particularly.
0:28:01 > 0:28:05So my estimate is coming from the practical sense of it all.
0:28:05 > 0:28:08It's historically interesting, but it's £40-60.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11I think she's coming from the romantic end of it all,
0:28:11 > 0:28:16- and it said £140.- Ouch!- So we've got pragmatist and romantic.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19Whether the twain shall meet
0:28:19 > 0:28:22will determine whether this team do well or not.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24If not, they're going to need their bonus buy.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Let's go and have a look at it.
0:28:27 > 0:28:33- Chaps, how are you feeling? - Good, thank you. - This is the leftover lolly moment.
0:28:33 > 0:28:37Catherine is going to reveal, did she spend the £87 or not? Catherine?
0:28:37 > 0:28:40- Are you ready? You are going to love me.- Yes, I know.
0:28:40 > 0:28:45- Oh, my God...- Thank you. We thought you would.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48- Yes.- What do you mean you thought she would?
0:28:48 > 0:28:51It's the one thing we said we didn't like very much at all.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Oh, really? - It's a nice four-draw telescope.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56Refracting telescope.
0:28:56 > 0:29:00If you're going to buy a telescope, that's quite a nice one to buy,
0:29:00 > 0:29:03cos it's got a nice little cap on the end.
0:29:03 > 0:29:07- And how much?- And for £22. - That was good.
0:29:07 > 0:29:09- That's good. - That is going to make money.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11- Will it make a profit?- Absolutely.
0:29:11 > 0:29:16It's going to make probably about £40.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18Any day, this is worth £40.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21- Would that be doubling your money, then?- I think it should be.
0:29:21 > 0:29:25- You should be really happy about this.- I am. - You hate this, don't you?
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Inwardly, I'm filled with joy.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31- Outwardly?- Not a chance. - Not a chance. No, seriously,
0:29:31 > 0:29:36- it surely won't make less than £22, will it, Catherine? - I really hope not, Tim.
0:29:36 > 0:29:41- On your life.- Anyway, you don't decide right now. You decide after the sale of the first three items.
0:29:41 > 0:29:47But for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's scope.
0:29:47 > 0:29:51- There you go, Jonathan. Something to get your eye in.- Ah, yes.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54It's a very pretty little thing that, isn't it? It's a nice...
0:29:54 > 0:29:59Nice little size with the mahogany sleeve,
0:29:59 > 0:30:04and it's signed by the maker Chadburn Bros. of Sheffield.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Were they any good?
0:30:06 > 0:30:09They were makers to the late Prince Consort, Prince Albert.
0:30:09 > 0:30:13So it obviously had a certain merit. It's nice quality, isn't it?
0:30:13 > 0:30:17I like the colour of the metal, don't you? When brass is old...
0:30:17 > 0:30:21- It's not been cleaned.- It's got a little bit of patination to it.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24- What's your estimate?- £40-60.
0:30:24 > 0:30:29Really? Catherine's done terribly well. She only paid £22. Good on her.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31That's it for the Reds, and now for the Blues,
0:30:31 > 0:30:36where it gets even more wacky with Margaret Thatcher.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40The collector's piece for this is the Spitting Image connection.
0:30:40 > 0:30:43- It's not an unlimited edition or anything, is it?- No.
0:30:43 > 0:30:47But if you have the rubber mask and it was used on the programme,
0:30:47 > 0:30:51there's only the one. What do you pay for a mass-produced teapot?
0:30:51 > 0:30:54My value for that is £20-30.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57- You're joking, aren't you? - Not at all.- £20-30?
0:30:57 > 0:31:00£125 they paid. Frankly, if you're right,
0:31:00 > 0:31:03this is going to be an absolute disaster for our girls.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Anyway, next up is the powder bowl. That's handsome, isn't it?
0:31:06 > 0:31:11- 1920s style.- An interesting shape, piece of glass.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15But it's not overtly 1920s. OK, the stepped top and whatnot,
0:31:15 > 0:31:18- but otherwise, it's just a cut-glass bowl, isn't it?- How much?
0:31:18 > 0:31:20I've been generous at £20-30, I think.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23That's fine. Don't worry. They only paid £20.
0:31:23 > 0:31:28Where are we going to go with this not particularly great miniature?
0:31:28 > 0:31:31Yeah, personally, I don't think it's painted on ivory.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35I think it's some sort of celluloid or something.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37The way that this is painted is a bit weak.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41There's some Sellotape mark at the top, which is a bit of a pain.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43I don't rate it very highly, to be honest.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45Where's your estimate coming from?
0:31:45 > 0:31:48- £50-70.- OK, £145 paid.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51So we have another chasm. In fact, such a huge chasm
0:31:51 > 0:31:55there was hardly any bonus buy money left to hand over to the Planter.
0:31:55 > 0:31:59But let's see what Thomas Plant spent it on!
0:32:00 > 0:32:02- Valery et Patsy... - HE CHUCKLES
0:32:02 > 0:32:06You only gave the poor boy £10 of leftover lolly.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09- What did you spend it on, Tom? - I didn't spend it all.
0:32:09 > 0:32:13I spent £8 on a little treen nail buff.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16You unscrew it, and inside is a nail buff
0:32:16 > 0:32:20for buffing your nails, and it's lavender flavour or whatever it is.
0:32:20 > 0:32:25It's something for the girls, nails... £8, but a bit of treen...
0:32:25 > 0:32:29I think it's quite good. This is of boxwood, a little cylindrical vial.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32Early 20th century. It's got a bit of nice advertising on there.
0:32:32 > 0:32:36- £8! You only gave me a tenner. - I know. We didn't do very...
0:32:36 > 0:32:39- It's quite a girly choice, isn't it?- Of course.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41I had two beautiful girls.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44It's quite quirky, actually.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46- You like it, Val? - It grabs my imagination.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49- What about you, Pat? - Yeah, I think we might need it.
0:32:49 > 0:32:54Do you? Oh dear, that's a confident start to the proceedings.
0:32:54 > 0:32:59Anyway, hold that thought. £8 paid. He thinks you'll make a small profit on it.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02- For sure! - Meanwhile, for the viewers at home,
0:33:02 > 0:33:05let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Thomas's nail buff.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09Well, Jonathan, what do you make of that?
0:33:09 > 0:33:12- Nicely turned little box. - It is, a little boxwood box,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15- containing...- Something special. - There we go.
0:33:15 > 0:33:21A little crayon. "Les fleurs" for polishing "ze nails".
0:33:23 > 0:33:27These things are always included with other items in a lot at auction.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29- Well, 40 other items.- Yes.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32Nice to have seen it with that sort of Mauchline ware type,
0:33:32 > 0:33:36maybe some sort of regional transfer on the outside.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39That would have made the difference,
0:33:39 > 0:33:43where it turns it from a straightforward tenner, you know...
0:33:43 > 0:33:45But you've done this job, haven't you?
0:33:45 > 0:33:48I mean, it's a tenner. That's all he had, £10.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51And you've had that moment, where you only get the £10 to spend
0:33:51 > 0:33:53to find something to bring along.
0:33:53 > 0:33:56- What do you think you'll get for it?- £10-15.- Do you?
0:33:56 > 0:33:59Well, Planter paid £8. We'll look forward to that. Thank you very much.
0:34:02 > 0:34:07220, 230... 240. At 240 by the pillar.
0:34:07 > 0:34:12- Tel and Paul, how are you feeling? - Very well, thank you. - Confident?- Yes, yes, yes.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15- You're going to win today? - Yes, why not?
0:34:15 > 0:34:16That confident.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Here comes the gent's scent bottle, and we are on!
0:34:19 > 0:34:21Lot 17-19 A.
0:34:21 > 0:34:25An early 20th century gentlemen's square glass scent bottle.
0:34:25 > 0:34:28I've got £35.
0:34:28 > 0:34:30- With me at £35. - Yes, yes!- Yes, yes, yes!
0:34:30 > 0:34:36- 40, 45. £50 at the back of the room. - We're in profit.- Excellent.
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Hey, Terry, you've got the eye.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42All done at £50. Any more at £50? It's going, at the back of the room.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44At £50 and selling, all done?
0:34:44 > 0:34:48- Wow!- Plus £7. How good is that?
0:34:48 > 0:34:52Lot 17-20 A. A late Art Deco walnut and chrome metal mantel clock,
0:34:52 > 0:34:55circa 1940. Nice-looking lot this.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58And I have two matching bids...
0:34:58 > 0:35:00of £10. Who will bid me 12?
0:35:00 > 0:35:03Is bid, thank you, at 12. Looking for 15. Surely worth more.
0:35:03 > 0:35:0615, 18, 20...
0:35:06 > 0:35:0922, 25...
0:35:09 > 0:35:12- 25 with the lady behind. Do I see 28? - Come on, come on, come on!
0:35:12 > 0:35:15- £25 in the centre, at £25.- He's going to sell it.- Any more at 25?
0:35:15 > 0:35:17Selling, £25.
0:35:17 > 0:35:22- Oh, bad luck, Paul. £25. - Never mind.- It's minus £5.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24You're still plus £2, though.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27- That's a pound each. - Now, James Dixon.
0:35:27 > 0:35:31- Here it comes.- A silver-plated hunting case by James Dixon & Sons,
0:35:31 > 0:35:36circa 1900. You've the sandwich box, you've got the spirit flask.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38And I've got a lot of interest.
0:35:38 > 0:35:41I want a lot, a lot, a lot of interest.
0:35:41 > 0:35:45Against my estimation, 60, 70, 80...
0:35:45 > 0:35:51Here we go, £140. Straight in at £140. £140, who'll bid me 150?
0:35:51 > 0:35:57- 150, 160...- Look at this, Catherine! Yes!- Yay, well done!
0:35:57 > 0:36:00Do I see 180? On the left at £170. Any more?
0:36:00 > 0:36:04- Come on! - £170, I'll sell, all done at 170?
0:36:04 > 0:36:07- You brilliant woman! How good is that?- Well done!
0:36:07 > 0:36:10Is she brilliant or is she not brilliant?
0:36:10 > 0:36:12So that is plus £30, all right?
0:36:12 > 0:36:15You were plus £2 before. You are plus £32.
0:36:15 > 0:36:20What are you going to do about the telescope? Are you going to go with the telescope?
0:36:20 > 0:36:22- Yes.- Yes.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26- That took a nanosecond. - Are you sure? Cos this, I mean it could...
0:36:26 > 0:36:30- Are you happy to go with this? - Yes, I like it.- Yeah. Definitely.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34- It should, but it might not. - I don't care. It's a nice telescope.
0:36:34 > 0:36:38We've got a universal opinion here. We're going with the bonus buy,
0:36:38 > 0:36:40- and here it comes.- Lot 17-24 A.
0:36:40 > 0:36:4319th century brass and mahogany four-draw telescope
0:36:43 > 0:36:46inscribed Chadburn Bros. of Sheffield.
0:36:46 > 0:36:51- I can start at £45. - Yes!- Look at that!
0:36:51 > 0:36:55Who'll bid me 50 now? It's £45. Looking for 50.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58- Surely worth another 5? - Come on, one more!- It's £45.
0:36:58 > 0:37:01Any more at £45? Are we all done? Straight in, maiden bid.
0:37:01 > 0:37:04Selling, £45.
0:37:05 > 0:37:10- So that is plus £23. 3, 4, 5...- Pressure's off.
0:37:10 > 0:37:15That is £55 of profit.
0:37:15 > 0:37:19- Wow, that's great.- Entirely, almost, down to the lovely Catherine Southon.
0:37:19 > 0:37:21- So well done for that.- Thank you.
0:37:21 > 0:37:25The big trick now, boys, is not to say a word to the Blues. All right?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39- Do you know how the Reds got on? - No.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41- Do you know how those naughty boys did?- No.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43No. You don't want to either, I tell you.
0:37:43 > 0:37:47Anyway, how confident are you, girls?
0:37:47 > 0:37:49- Very!- Yeah.
0:37:49 > 0:37:53OK. First up is the Margaret Thatcher teapot, and here it comes.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56We have a Luck and Flaw pottery teapot
0:37:56 > 0:37:58modelled as Margaret Thatcher, circa 1980...
0:37:58 > 0:38:01- So cheeky, isn't it? - And bids I have,
0:38:01 > 0:38:06starting at 30, 35, 40, £45.
0:38:06 > 0:38:10- £45.- Looking for 50. Bid at £45. Who'll bid 50?
0:38:10 > 0:38:14Any further interest at £45? It's 45 against you all, then.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- Commission bid at 45. - I don't like the look of this.
0:38:17 > 0:38:21No further interest? At 45 and selling, all done?
0:38:21 > 0:38:25£45 is, I'm afraid...
0:38:25 > 0:38:29- That's a hell of a loss.- That's a hell of a loss.- £80 down the drain.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31I'll do the washing up.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34- OK, the powder bowl. Here it comes. - 1920s cut-glass
0:38:34 > 0:38:39powder bowl and cover with that interesting finial. Someone start me.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43Surely start me at £20, someone? £10, then?
0:38:43 > 0:38:44- THEY ALL SIGH - Struggling...
0:38:44 > 0:38:4710 I'm bid. Let's go up now. Looking for 12.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- It's £12 in the centre. - Oh, dear...- 12, thank you. 12.
0:38:50 > 0:38:5215, 18...
0:38:52 > 0:38:55- Got a bargain.- Come on!- 20.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59- I'll go twos if you like, 22. - We're going to break even.- 22.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02- 25, madam? 25.- Yes, good girl!
0:39:02 > 0:39:05- No? 28?- Go on. One more.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08It's £25, then. 28 by the pillar.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12- LAUGHS: The tension... - He's trying.- He's trying!
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Any more at £28? I'll sell it at £28.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15It's £28, all done?
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Nice bit of auctioneering, that.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19- That is plus £8. - He's good, isn't he?
0:39:19 > 0:39:22You are at the moment minus £72.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26- So... Here comes the miniature. - The miniature.- The miniature, yes.
0:39:26 > 0:39:2936 A, a 1920s portrait miniature of a pretty young lady...
0:39:29 > 0:39:32- She's very attractive. - In a nice leather case.
0:39:32 > 0:39:40- It could have been me. - And I have bids to 85... 80, 85...
0:39:40 > 0:39:44- I've got £90.- There you go!- 90. - At £90.
0:39:44 > 0:39:48- 95, 100.- Oh, we're getting there!
0:39:48 > 0:39:51- And 5 and 10.- Oh, go on. He's going to want it.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55- And 20 and 30. £130 against you. - Go on. A few more, a few more.
0:39:55 > 0:39:59£130. £130 against you all, at 130. Commission bid at 130. Anyone else?
0:39:59 > 0:40:02It's £130 and selling, all done?
0:40:02 > 0:40:06How annoying. Very close, and much better than people thought.
0:40:06 > 0:40:07So well done for that.
0:40:07 > 0:40:13That's minus £15. 72, 82... Minus £87.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Minus £87. So what are you going to do?
0:40:16 > 0:40:20- Are you going with the bonus buy? - Absolutely.- I think you should do.
0:40:20 > 0:40:24If I can get £8 for your nail buff, I think it's rather good fun.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28Thomas is a bit of a buff himself, so that's all very nice, isn't it?
0:40:28 > 0:40:30You're going with the bonus buy,
0:40:30 > 0:40:32and here it comes.
0:40:32 > 0:40:34We have a boxwood cylindrical container
0:40:34 > 0:40:37enclosing a Boots nail polishing crayon.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41I have nothing, so start me at £10, someone.
0:40:41 > 0:40:45Any interest at £10? Start me at 10. I can't go lower than a tenner.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47Any interest at 10? £10, surely?
0:40:47 > 0:40:50- Surely!- £8, then?
0:40:50 > 0:40:53Cor blimey... You're a tough bunch now.
0:40:53 > 0:40:57- It's like tumbleweed, isn't it? - Any interest at 8? 5?
0:40:57 > 0:41:02£5. Come on, £5. Jill? You'll do a fiver, thank you very much.
0:41:02 > 0:41:05- £5 is bid.- Well done, Jill. - Well done, Jill.- Let's go up.
0:41:05 > 0:41:07There we go. £5 is bid. £6, someone?
0:41:07 > 0:41:115. Let's go upwards. It's £5 at the front. Are we all done?
0:41:11 > 0:41:16Your nails are all far too tidy, then. It's £5 and selling.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18- There we go.- £5, minus £3.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21I'm not suggesting for a minute yours aren't. I'm sorry, Jill.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23- Minus £90.- Oh, excellent.
0:41:23 > 0:41:27- It's not quite a record, then. - That's right.- Nice round number though, isn't it?
0:41:27 > 0:41:33- It's just ghastly!- Well, I have to say, £90 could be a winning score.
0:41:33 > 0:41:37Could be. It's happened before. We've had losses of more than £90, I promise you.
0:41:37 > 0:41:41Substantially more, so there's no shame in that, I can tell you.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44Anyway, the big thing is, don't mention it to the Reds.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46All will be revealed in a moment.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Well, what a programme of contrasts today!
0:41:56 > 0:42:00- Have you been chatting at all, the boys and the girls? - No, we haven't.- Not a word.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04Well, this is the exciting moment, because who is ahead?
0:42:04 > 0:42:07We don't have losers any more, we only have runners-up,
0:42:07 > 0:42:10and the runners-up today are, I'm sad to say,
0:42:10 > 0:42:12- the girls. - ALL: Oh...
0:42:12 > 0:42:16The girls are runners-up because they managed to lose £90.
0:42:16 > 0:42:21- LAUGHTER - Largely made up by the Margaret Thatcher teapot, I have to say.
0:42:21 > 0:42:26That substantial loss was a difficult moment to recover from, so bad luck, girls.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30- Have you had a nice time?- Lovely! - We've loved having you on the show.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32It's been brilliant. But the victors today,
0:42:32 > 0:42:37- who are going home with £55 in cash... - THEY CHEER
0:42:37 > 0:42:41- Look at this! - Thank you very much indeed, sir. - There is £55 coming over.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44Congratulations. I hope you've enjoyed it.
0:42:44 > 0:42:45We've loved having you on the show.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Join us soon for some more Bargain Hunting, yes?
0:42:48 > 0:42:49ALL: Yes!
