0:00:04 > 0:00:08The Grand National, a race where anything can happen.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11A bit like our show, really!
0:00:11 > 0:00:13So let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:39 > 0:00:43Dealers have replaced horses today here at Aintree,
0:00:43 > 0:00:48which means that our teams are going to both have their trots and their wits about them
0:00:48 > 0:00:51if they have any chance of cantering off to victory.
0:00:53 > 0:00:54Coming up...
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Danielle keeps her team on track.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59- We need to walk faster.- OK.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01- Let's go.- OK.- This way. - Did you hear her?
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Start walking fast, Dorothy!
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Wendy tries to derail hers.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09£20. He's sticking his heels in.
0:01:09 > 0:01:1122.50?
0:01:11 > 0:01:13No, that's the wrong way, you daft...
0:01:15 > 0:01:17And I travel into the heart of Liverpool
0:01:17 > 0:01:21and discover an unexpected connection at the Walker Art Gallery.
0:01:27 > 0:01:33Now, Danielle, you describe yourselves as a grandmother/ granddaughter combo,
0:01:33 > 0:01:36but actually you're also the best of friends.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Absolutely. My gran is my best friend of all time.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41We speak to each other on the phone all the time
0:01:41 > 0:01:45but if we're not on the phone, Gran is texting me non-stop!
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Hi-tech, eh, Gran?
0:01:47 > 0:01:48Yes!
0:01:48 > 0:01:52- Danielle, your passion is dance. - Right.- Tell us about that.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55I started in the Form School of Dancing when I was younger.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59- I've worked on two cruise liners as a singer/dancer.- Did you?
0:01:59 > 0:02:04Then I opened my own dancing school two years ago, the Skelmersdale School of Dance,
0:02:04 > 0:02:06where I have over 40 children.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Are you going to teach us a few steps today?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10Get your tap shoes on!
0:02:10 > 0:02:15- Me tap dancing!- Or your ballet tights!- That I am looking forward to!
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Very funny. Dot, what's your strategy today?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21What is your plan to win loads of dough?
0:02:21 > 0:02:28Hopefully just lift the ornament up and look on the bottoms!
0:02:28 > 0:02:30What, see what the price is?
0:02:30 > 0:02:33See what it's made of and everything.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Well, that's not a bad strategy, I have to say.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37Very good luck to you two girls.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39Now, Wendy and Duncan.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43- How are you?- Very well, thank you. - Fine.- Brilliant.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47You shove off to France for extended periods, like five months a year.
0:02:47 > 0:02:53- That sounds like fun.- We hide in the hills in a region called Limousin.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56For 30 years without a break we've gone there every year.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01Now we've got a little cottage and our son's bought a wood just above it
0:03:01 > 0:03:06and one of big projects is to make the wood accessible to local people.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09That's very nice. Wendy, you're incredibly creative.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13Your houses in France and England are full of artistic objects.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15They are. A lot of them are mine.
0:03:15 > 0:03:20When I do glass or do paintings, where do I put them? On a wall.
0:03:20 > 0:03:26- Yes.- I mean I sell the odd thing. They have little exhibitions so I sell the odd thing.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30They're quite interested in glass because I have glass hanging from trees
0:03:30 > 0:03:35- because I don't know where else to put it!- You hang glass from trees? - Yes.
0:03:35 > 0:03:40We've got a lovely cherry tree in the garden and I hang various glass objects that I've made.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Does it not smash every time a gale goes through?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45I have replacements!
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- I make such a lot! - You keep producing it.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53When that's bust, it doesn't matter, I've got more!
0:03:53 > 0:03:57That's rather a whizz, isn't it? Anyway,
0:03:57 > 0:03:59this is the money moment.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01£300 apiece. There's your £300.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05You know the rules. Your experts await. Off you go!
0:04:05 > 0:04:07And very, very good luck!
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Smashing glass, eh?
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Luckily, our teams will be in safe hands with today's experts.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16The reds are led by Jonathan Pratt.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20And the blues by Henry Meadows.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24Right. We've got the teams, we've got the experts.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27All we need now are some clear tactics.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- What are your tactics?- Go straight up there.- Then right.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35OK. You lead the way, then.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Good. That's clear as mud!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Focussed, too, red team? - What are you looking for?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- It depends what's there, Jonathan. - OK.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48- Dancing figurines, jewellery. - Whatever takes my eye.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52Well, there's plenty to choose from, so let's fill our boots.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Fill our boots.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56Let's head down this row, yeah?
0:05:02 > 0:05:07The first quarter of an hour, don't worry. After that, worry.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10We're interested in the pair of vases here.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12What can you tell me about them?
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- VENDOR:- Those date back to the '60s. - '60s, right.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Would you like to have a look?
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- Have a look.- I like the colours. And I like the...
0:05:21 > 0:05:26- Have you seen the West German lava? - No, I haven't, no.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31It's very much in vogue at the moment. There's been books written about it.
0:05:31 > 0:05:36I have to be honest, I'm not terribly familiar with Eric Leaper.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40He's obviously influenced by that particular movement.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44I like these two. What's your best price on the two?
0:05:44 > 0:05:47I have 130 on them. I would do them for 95.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49- For the two.- 80?
0:05:49 > 0:05:50Now you're pushing it!
0:05:50 > 0:05:5380 and we'll shake your hand.
0:05:53 > 0:05:5485.
0:05:54 > 0:05:5682.50.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59I like your style in haggling.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03OK. 82.50.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05- Wonderful.- 82.50. - We've got a deal, then.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- Yep!- Great.- Thank you very much.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12My word, blues! Those tactics are clearly working. Whatever they are!
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- That was a quick deal. Well done. - Sorry about that.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- Excellent.- I like the colours.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- '70s.- It gives us time now.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- We can coast. - Go and have a cup of tea!
0:06:23 > 0:06:25- Put your feet up.- Absolutely.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Ten-minute nap and I'll be refreshed.
0:06:27 > 0:06:33- Let's carry on.- Don't get too cocky, Wendy and Duncan. You've still got to find two more items.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35How are the red ladies getting on?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Are they egg cups?
0:06:38 > 0:06:42- A couple of egg cups for the dressing table!- Candlesticks! - Oh, candles!
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Candlestick holders.
0:06:45 > 0:06:46Quail eggs for breakfast!
0:06:46 > 0:06:48I like that.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51That's something I'd do is my Gran's sort of style.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54It's not my style. You're not happy, are you?
0:06:54 > 0:06:58I'm not saying I'm not happy. My feelings are OK, £40 isn't a lot of money.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01And it's kind of retro.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03And it's pink, so it's, you know...
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- We'll keep it in mind.- It could be.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Jonathan, you don't sound convinced.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12I fear you've got your work cut out today, old boy.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14- We could nip outside.- Steady!
0:07:15 > 0:07:16OK.
0:07:16 > 0:07:21- What do you think?- Have we finished in here? We haven't been over there.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23OK. Go that way. Go on.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26A leisurely pace. Let's keep going.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- That's quite nice.- Yes. - It is nice, actually.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Let's have a look.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- It's got quite an Indian feel about it.- I quite like that.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45- This is what?- I'd say it's probably been electro-plated.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47You can see brass coming through.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50It depends on how much it is, really.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- Do you like it?- Yes, I do. We could ask and find out.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56We don't have to get it immediately.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- Do you want to ask, Duncs? - Can you tell me how much that is, please?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02- 30.- 30, right.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03What do you think about 30?
0:08:03 > 0:08:07- Leave it and come back?- £30, it's food for thought, really.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Food for thought, indeed.
0:08:09 > 0:08:14Now, Danielle, have you found something to tempt JP?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Jonathan?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Dancing figurines. What do you think?
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Pennies or pounds?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25We'll have to see what the stall-holder says.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26Um...
0:08:27 > 0:08:30What is it made of? I suppose it's moulded glass.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- Could do with a clean.- It's not that old, I would have thought.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35It depends what it's worth.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Danielle's a dancer. She saw the ballerina.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40- Right.- How much are you asking?
0:08:40 > 0:08:4215.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44What do you think?
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Do you think it... What would you...
0:08:47 > 0:08:51- What's it made of? I can't work it out.- I don't know.- It's not cold.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53No, it isn't that cold.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57But if 12 sounds more attractive, then you've twisted my arm.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00I think that, for a decorative figure,
0:09:00 > 0:09:05- you might make a fiver out of it, maybe more. I don't think there's money on it.- OK.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08It's not an antique. It's a collectable.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12- What do you think?- You like that, don't you?- I like it because it represents what I do.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- But if you don't like it. - I don't dislike it, at all.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19I think it's good for the money as well. It'll make something.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23- Even if it's a couple of pounds, it's better than nothing. - It's a profit.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- A profit of two pounds! - Then everybody's happy with it.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- You happy with it? - I am. At that sort of money,
0:09:29 > 0:09:33you could buy three objects at £12 and probably make a profit on all of them.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37- Well, we'll have it, then. - Yep, we'll have it.- Right.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Here we go. Thank you.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41- £12.- Thanks very much. Thank you. - Thank you.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43And you can't take it home!
0:09:43 > 0:09:47Well handled, Jonathan. And you're off the blocks.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50- Do you like this snuff box, sir? - Oh, yes, that's nice.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54- It's pewter.- Windsor Castle. - It's not a lot of money.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Let's have a look.
0:09:56 > 0:10:01- Perhaps you need an eye-glass! - No, I've still got fresh eyes!
0:10:01 > 0:10:05- JD. James Dixon and Sons of Sheffield.- Yes.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08What can I say? It's pewter.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Obviously during the days of snuff. I don't know where this is.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Right.- Your knowledge might be greater than...
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Might be in Yorkshire or something. It's nice that.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- It's not a lot of money.- No.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23- Even less if we bargain. - Yes, we'll bargain.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Have a haggle. See what... - What's your best price?
0:10:26 > 0:10:31- What's on it?- 25. - Well, for you, 50!
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Brilliant.- 50p?- It should go down, not up!
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Sorry, I couldn't remember how it went!
0:10:37 > 0:10:39It was half of 25, wasn't it?
0:10:39 > 0:10:42- 17?- 20.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- 20.- Slightly less? - No, 20 would be it.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- £20. - He's sticking his heels in!
0:10:48 > 0:10:5022.50?
0:10:50 > 0:10:53No, that's the wrong way, you daft...
0:10:54 > 0:10:56The other way! No!
0:10:56 > 0:10:5720.50.
0:10:57 > 0:11:02- No, he said 20!- Right.- So it's less than 20 you're trying to do!
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- 19.50.- I'm totally confused. I'm 20. 20 is it.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07- It's a deal.- Shake on it.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09It's nice, that.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13- This is crazy. It's only my wife! - I'm no good at maths.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15£20. "I'll give you 22 for it!"
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- Marvellous!- That was hard work!
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Certainly was!
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Sorry, Henry!
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- It's all right.- Two and two always make five or six with Wendy!
0:11:25 > 0:11:28She was going to give away £2.50. Silly...
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Steady on, Duncan. It all came good in the end!
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Reds, at least you're seeing eye-to-eye.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39- We walked all that way without looking at anything!- I was looking!
0:11:39 > 0:11:41- OK.- You may have been asleep. - No, I'm never asleep.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Oh, well, maybe not.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46I need something that's going to make us some money.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50We haven't got anything yet, have we?
0:11:50 > 0:11:54- We've got one object and a profit out of it, I'm sure.- You hope! - Definitely.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56We need to get something else.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Something a bit more expensive, I think.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01It's just finding it.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04You've hit the nail on the head, there, Dotty!
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Luckily, I have found something. Come and have a look.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11These are fun, aren't they?
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Six bonnets.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Look at that. Made of solid silver.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Most importantly, cast silver.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Not cheaply embossed from behind,
0:12:21 > 0:12:23but actually cast in a mould
0:12:23 > 0:12:27which means there's more silver in them. On the back,
0:12:27 > 0:12:33you've got this slightly snake-skin textured effect
0:12:33 > 0:12:36where it's been removed from the mould.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Difficult to read the date on the hallmark, but they're not old.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43I make the hallmark around the year 2000.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45All very decorative and nice,
0:12:45 > 0:12:47but what's their function and purpose?
0:12:47 > 0:12:51These are name place holders.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56You use little cards which you tuck just behind the bow here,
0:12:56 > 0:13:01so that the card stays prettily on the table. Now,
0:13:01 > 0:13:06if you don't have too many dinner parties that you need to use place card holders like this,
0:13:06 > 0:13:11they do have another function. You can use them for holding photographs.
0:13:11 > 0:13:17I just happen to have a photo of an incredibly good-looking fellow here.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Look how well it holds a snapshot.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23So they have form and they have function.
0:13:23 > 0:13:28And I think a certain amount of value as a collectable.
0:13:28 > 0:13:34180 to £240 would be my estimate of value
0:13:34 > 0:13:36for the six.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40But what might you buy them for here today in the fair at Aintree?
0:13:40 > 0:13:44They could be yours, the whole lot, for £80.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48Now, there's a feather in your cap!
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Let's go back up this way.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- We need to walk faster. - OK.- Let's go.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03OK. Did you hear her? Start walking faster!
0:14:04 > 0:14:06We have to get going.
0:14:06 > 0:14:07OK.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Come on, Dorothy. Keep working at it!
0:14:19 > 0:14:23Maybe about 1960, 1970, something like that.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28This is a costume bracelet. It's silver. Silver and paste.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31No, it's zircon and spinel.
0:14:31 > 0:14:36You think this is zircon? It's so identifiable as a gemstone.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40It splits light and so you see double images through the stone.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Very visibly.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- And is it?- I don't think so.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46That's how I bought it.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Yeah. '95. Quite modern.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's an English hallmark, silver.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55Oh, crikey! How much is it?
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- 65.- £65.
0:15:00 > 0:15:04- It's rather showy. - I think it's very pretty.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06- It would look pretty on the wrist. - Dorothy?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08It's quite pretty, yes. Honestly.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- What do you think, Jonathan? - Would you wear it?
0:15:13 > 0:15:17Have you got the matching earrings? I'd only wear it with earrings!
0:15:17 > 0:15:20- It suits you, sir.- Is that your best price?- Green's my colour.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23- 65?- 50.- 50.
0:15:23 > 0:15:27At £50 it stands a chance. It's a nice good-looking piece.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31- OK.- If you think about it. Around that sort of figure, maybe.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33- Leave you with it.- Thank you.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36I'll look at a couple more stands and maybe you can do a deal.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38OK. Thank you very much.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40- What do you think?- 45?
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- Yeah.- Thank you very much indeed. Thank you.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44Thank you.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Thank goodness for that deal done.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Hey, what have you got there?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Come on, show me.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56I'll see if I can sell them to you.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57Good.
0:15:57 > 0:16:02Obviously, a cased set of, by the size of them, probably serving spoons.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08Are they silver or are they electroplate?
0:16:08 > 0:16:09Ah.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13- They're electroplated.- Right.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17- Shucks.- But they may well be in our price range.- Yes.
0:16:17 > 0:16:22Style-wise, it's very organic, the terminals.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25That's the Art Nouveau movement.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30It was at its height in the 1890s up to about 1910, that sort of period.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32I mean, ooh...
0:16:32 > 0:16:34Let's have a look.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39- £95.- So we can bring him down? - We need to get him down a lot.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43If we can get them for... 60 to 80 would be my guide at auction.
0:16:43 > 0:16:48They do stand a chance of making more. It depends on the day, really.
0:16:48 > 0:16:52- We keep saying that.- We want a better price. We'll go for 70.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55See what he says. There might be some flexibility in it.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59What a difference a team makes, eh?
0:16:59 > 0:17:00Blues cruising...
0:17:02 > 0:17:06- I don't want to throw 100-odd pounds.- It's about spending it wisely.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Listen, Jonathan, we buy things starting at 30.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Ooh, things are turning ugly. Must be a tiff!
0:17:12 > 0:17:16- I was going to have a look at that candelabra.- Don't mention things.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24We're looking at this lovely pair of spoons. What's your best price?
0:17:24 > 0:17:28- My best price would be... - The ultimate.
0:17:28 > 0:17:29..75.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32- We were going... - That's the lowest I can do.
0:17:32 > 0:17:37- That's fair enough. Very fair.- OK.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- I think we'll go for that. - Shall we go for it?- Yes.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41- That's the third item, then.- Yes.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45- Can I get to shake the hand? - Yes, of course you can.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50Can I shake your hand on that? It's very kind. Thank you very much.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51- Very kind of you.- Thank you.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- Lovely. Job done!- Job done!
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- Excellent.- Really good. - Thank you.- Time for coffee!
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Well done, blues. You've jumped the final hurdle.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Reds, are you in sight of the home straight yet?
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Have a look at that.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Flick a few pages over on that.
0:18:08 > 0:18:13It's covering when he was in France and Belgium during the First World War.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- How much is it?- I've got 38.
0:18:16 > 0:18:17OK. £38.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21There's still profit. Every page has been filled in.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Absolutely. It's got a lot about it.
0:18:23 > 0:18:28It's got the drawings which people may find interesting. Nostalgia.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32History about the army. It's always at the right price, though.
0:18:32 > 0:18:3530, you've got leeway.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40With that, it's a one-off. Only one person would have owned it.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- It's not a mass-produced item. - I like it.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- You're offering it for how much?- 30.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48That's your best price?
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Just a little bit?
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Tell you what, 27 and you're robbing me.
0:18:53 > 0:18:55Then we'll rob you!
0:18:55 > 0:18:58You're more likely to get the police is all I'm saying!
0:18:58 > 0:19:03- As long as Jonathan's happy. I'm happy. Yes?- I'm happy, yes.
0:19:03 > 0:19:08- Job's a good 'un.- Job's a good 'un. - Sold, sealed and delivered. In a bag.
0:19:08 > 0:19:13- Let's see the cash and I'll just get a bag for it.- Thank you.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18And they've crossed the finishing line!
0:19:18 > 0:19:21Will it be a photo finish? Will there be a steward's inquiry?
0:19:21 > 0:19:26Let's remind ourselves what the red team bought. Neigh!
0:19:26 > 0:19:30Dancer Danielle fell in love with a ballerina figurine.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34It's not a quality object, but it's pretty.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38Have you got matching earrings. I'll only wear it with earrings!
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Dotty thought the bracelet a real gem.
0:19:41 > 0:19:45And JP eventually made his mark with the autograph book.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49It could make a few pounds profit. It may make a few pounds loss.
0:19:49 > 0:19:50It's an interesting object.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54- That was slick, wasn't it?- Slick?! - Talking of slick!
0:19:56 > 0:19:59You're always teeing something up, aren't you, JP?
0:19:59 > 0:20:04- Did you have a good shop? - Brilliant.- Thank you, very nice. - He's a lovely man.- He is.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- Gorgeous!- A lot of people would pay money to have an hour with him!
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- I bet they would!- You've had it for free!- He paid us!
0:20:11 > 0:20:14- Did he?- I'm going red, now. - Enough of that.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18- How much did you spend all round? - 80...- £80-odd.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20- How much all round?- £84.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22- You should know!- £84?
0:20:22 > 0:20:25- You bought three items for £84? - Yeah!
0:20:25 > 0:20:28- That's pathetic! - No, it's good bargaining.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- There we go.- It's good shopping.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35£84. So I get £216 back, then.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38- Who's got the £216?- I've got 200. - 200.
0:20:38 > 0:20:44- And I've got six.- You've got the 210 in there, I hope.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46There's the six. 216.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49I'll tell you, dot 1 and carry the I.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50Here we go.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54- There you go. That's a wodge of money, that is.- A wodge of money.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- What will you spend it on? - Something that ties in with what we've been talking about.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02- I have my mind. - Anyway, that's enough of that.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Well done, girls. Well done, Jonathan. Good luck.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09Now, why don't we check out how the blue team got on, eh?
0:21:09 > 0:21:14Wendy and Duncan jumped straight in with a pair of Eric Leaper vases.
0:21:14 > 0:21:18Slightly out of my control, the pair of vases, I felt.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22But Wendy tried to pay more than was asked for the pewter snuff box!
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- 22.50.- No, that's the wrong way, you daft...
0:21:27 > 0:21:32And they finished in great time with a pair of Art Nouveau serving spoons.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Really unusual, nice condition. In their original case.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38We'll have to wait and see.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40'Ello, 'ello, 'ello!
0:21:40 > 0:21:43I suppose you're out here looking at the race course
0:21:43 > 0:21:47relaxing because you stopped so quickly, right?
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Absolutely. We did it in record time.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54That's good. And what did you spend overall?
0:21:54 > 0:21:55177.50.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- 177.50.- Yep.
0:21:58 > 0:22:03- Does that give me 122.50?- Correct. - Yes.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06£122.50.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Where's the 50p? There we go.
0:22:08 > 0:22:13£122.50 goes to Henry. A small fortune, Henry.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17- Any idea what you're going to spend it on?- Hopefully something that may sail away.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19- Ah.- Nautical!
0:22:19 > 0:22:23Bit of a hint there, anyway. Jolly good luck.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Meanwhile, we're heading a short distance that-away
0:22:26 > 0:22:29into the middle of Liverpool to the Walker Art Gallery.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36The Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool opened its doors to the public
0:22:36 > 0:22:37in 1877.
0:22:37 > 0:22:41It started off as an art gallery
0:22:41 > 0:22:46but now is bursting at the seams with treasures of all shapes and sizes.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50One of the things I like about museums
0:22:50 > 0:22:54are the connections between seemingly unrelated objects.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03Take this magnificent painting of Napoleon.
0:23:03 > 0:23:09It was produced by the artist Paul Delaroche in 1850,
0:23:09 > 0:23:14exactly 50 years after Napoleon
0:23:14 > 0:23:20led a modest army through the St Bernard Pass into Italy
0:23:20 > 0:23:25and smashed up the Austrians at the Battle of Marengo
0:23:25 > 0:23:28which was a tremendous achievement.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31But what's interesting about this picture
0:23:31 > 0:23:37is that at the time, in 1801,
0:23:37 > 0:23:40the French artist Davide produced another version
0:23:40 > 0:23:44which showed Napoleon in the same spot
0:23:44 > 0:23:47but astride a magnificent charger
0:23:47 > 0:23:50looking brave and heroic.
0:23:50 > 0:23:5450 years later, the taste in art had changed
0:23:54 > 0:23:57more towards a sense of realism
0:23:57 > 0:24:03and here he's on some knackered, broken-down old mule
0:24:03 > 0:24:06being led by a Swiss peasant.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10This, effectively, is the realistic approach
0:24:10 > 0:24:14to that moment in history.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17But what possible connection could this have
0:24:17 > 0:24:21with some other objects here in the Walker Art Gallery?
0:24:29 > 0:24:33Cor, these are flashy, aren't they?
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Strictly speaking, a pair of torchieres.
0:24:37 > 0:24:45They would have been designed to take some massive lighting implement on the top.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49What's most interesting, though, is this elaborate decoration.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53What we have here is a series of sheets of brass
0:24:53 > 0:25:00which have been cut and then beautifully inset into the rosewood timber ground.
0:25:00 > 0:25:05In short, they are the absolute top of the notch
0:25:05 > 0:25:09when it comes to Regency furniture making.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Why are they here in Liverpool?
0:25:14 > 0:25:17Well, surprise, surprise,
0:25:17 > 0:25:23they are the production of Liverpool's most celebrated cabinet maker, George Bullock.
0:25:23 > 0:25:28He was the person who was successful in getting the commission
0:25:28 > 0:25:32for the furnishing of New Longwood House in St Helena.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35And St Helena was the place
0:25:35 > 0:25:40that Napoleon Bonaparte, the guy on the stairs,
0:25:40 > 0:25:44here in Liverpool was, of course, sent to in 1815
0:25:44 > 0:25:46after his defeat at Waterloo.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50So, you see, there are connections between objects
0:25:50 > 0:25:54that at first sight seem unconnected.
0:25:54 > 0:25:59George Bullock not only provided the furniture for the new house
0:25:59 > 0:26:03that Napoleon moved into on the island of St Helena,
0:26:03 > 0:26:06but he also provided the furnishings.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09Here in the Walker Art Gallery
0:26:09 > 0:26:12are a selection of pieces of ceramics
0:26:12 > 0:26:16that date back to the time of Bullock's commission.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19The interesting thing is that this particular set
0:26:19 > 0:26:23wasn't actually taken by the British government for Napoleon.
0:26:23 > 0:26:30They felt that the design, with this stylised laurel leaf
0:26:30 > 0:26:35would have been unkind because the laurel wreath, in a way,
0:26:35 > 0:26:39might have reminded the exiled emperor
0:26:39 > 0:26:42not of victory, but of defeat.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45But I think it's marvellous that they finished up
0:26:45 > 0:26:48back in Liverpool, Bullock's birthplace.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51The big question today is, of course,
0:26:51 > 0:26:56will our teams have been successful in uncovering similar treasures
0:26:56 > 0:27:01during their shopping spree just up the road in Aintree?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Well, let's find out.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08I'm over at Peter Wilson's in Nantwich
0:27:08 > 0:27:12where auctioneer Robert Stones awaits us.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14Gosh, isn't this exciting?
0:27:14 > 0:27:19How are Danielle and Dotty going to get on today, do you suppose?
0:27:19 > 0:27:21- We wish them luck.- We certainly do.
0:27:21 > 0:27:26They'll need it with the first item cos this plastic figure is an acquired taste!
0:27:26 > 0:27:30I thought it was glass, actually, Tim, but when I picked it up,
0:27:30 > 0:27:34- shock of shocks, it's acrylic, or plastic.- Yeah.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39And not that old, either. I don't know how we'll do with that, quite honestly.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42- Do you put ten, £20 on it? See what happens?- That's what we've done.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45Lovely. £12 they paid.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49- Yep.- Next, Dotty went with the bling.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53A good decorative thing. As you say, bling.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56It's not particularly well made, but it looks good.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59It's got that dressed jewellery part about it.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02- Again, ten to 20.- Is that all?
0:28:02 > 0:28:04- Hmm.- Dotty paid 45.
0:28:04 > 0:28:09- Good grief!- Is she dotty?- I think she had a good go at that!- Yeah.
0:28:09 > 0:28:14A bit of alcoholic interest here from the World War One Americano soldier.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16On the whiskey.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Very fashionable, these autograph books.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22We handle quite a lot of them and some are extremely interesting.
0:28:22 > 0:28:26Often they are a little snapshot of someone's life or period in time
0:28:26 > 0:28:30- and some nice inscriptions, as you might expect.- Yeah.
0:28:30 > 0:28:35- How do you rate this one? - We put 30 to 50 on it.- £27 paid.
0:28:35 > 0:28:41Fab. All being well, they won't need the bonus buy but let's look at it anyway.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Well, girls. £84, top end.
0:28:45 > 0:28:50- It's not so much that, Dotty, is it? - No, not very much at all!
0:28:50 > 0:28:54No. £216 went to the boy. What did he spend it on?
0:28:54 > 0:28:55Jonathan?
0:29:01 > 0:29:05Some of these things are a bit difficult to cover up!
0:29:06 > 0:29:09The subterfuge. JP, tell us about it.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13OK, it's a bentwood rocking chair in the manner of Thonet
0:29:13 > 0:29:16who was the man who invented
0:29:16 > 0:29:22the cafe-type bentwood chair of the late French 19th century.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24This isn't of that period, I should say.
0:29:24 > 0:29:28It's a reproduction of that. But the cane is in nice order,
0:29:28 > 0:29:30- and it's got style about it.- So?
0:29:30 > 0:29:34- Going straight for the jugular here! - Yes!
0:29:34 > 0:29:36Danielle doesn't hang around!
0:29:36 > 0:29:37It cost me £40.
0:29:37 > 0:29:41£40. Is that enough to send you off your rocker?
0:29:41 > 0:29:44- Yeah, just a bit.- It'll be nice for me, Granny, won't it?
0:29:46 > 0:29:51- Have a go! Sit in it! - Come on, Dotty, have a go, love.
0:29:51 > 0:29:53- Nice for Granny, innit? - This is when it snaps!
0:29:53 > 0:29:56- Is it comfortable? - Oh, it's lovely... Ooh!
0:29:59 > 0:30:01- Come on!- Oh, it's you!
0:30:01 > 0:30:04- It's lovely.- Is it?
0:30:04 > 0:30:09So think about it, Dotty. £40. Would you buy that for £40?
0:30:09 > 0:30:13- Would you buy it?- Yeah!- Would you?!
0:30:13 > 0:30:16- Yeah.- I'm not overly keen.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18But you never know.
0:30:18 > 0:30:25Think about it, girls. For you at home, let's see what the auctioneer thinks about the bentwood rocker.
0:30:26 > 0:30:31There you go, Robert. Nice thing for you to nod off in!
0:30:31 > 0:30:37Absolutely. I wish I had time to nod off in a chair like that in an auction room!
0:30:37 > 0:30:38It never happens!
0:30:38 > 0:30:42In the manner of Thonet. 1871 was when they finished production.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45- But I don't think it's that old.- No.
0:30:45 > 0:30:47I agree. I think '60s or '70s. Anyway,
0:30:47 > 0:30:52an old genuine Thonet one would be worth several hundred pounds.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56- What's this copy worth? - A disastrous ten to 20.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59- Jonathan paid 40.- Did he? - He rates it as a bonus buy.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03- Somebody will pop up.- We'll look for them!- And your persuasive tongue, too!
0:31:03 > 0:31:07- Thank you!- Anyway. That's it for the reds.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10Now for the blues. The pair of vases.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12Dribbly ones!
0:31:12 > 0:31:17Yeah. Leaper. He was a potter. He persevered all his life
0:31:17 > 0:31:18to make pots.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22And he was somebody that seemed to be struggling as a potter.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25But he actually produced some fantastic glazes.
0:31:25 > 0:31:29In a strange sort of way, I think I quite like them.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33- I'm not surprised.- Cos he's got that dribble and the orange and brown.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36- Mm.- Good colours.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39What do you think they're worth, these Leaper pots?
0:31:39 > 0:31:43- 30 to 50.- Not leaping around too much, then, are they?
0:31:43 > 0:31:46- Is that all?- Yeah.- 30 to 50?- Yeah.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50- What did they pay for them?- £82.50. - Did they?- Yeah.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53Which is £41.25 per leap!
0:31:53 > 0:31:56No, seriously,
0:31:56 > 0:32:00onto a traditional antique. The pewter little snuff box
0:32:00 > 0:32:03that looks just like silver. Isn't that amazing?
0:32:03 > 0:32:06It is pewter. I was a bit disappointed, really.
0:32:06 > 0:32:11When I first saw the top of that, I thought, "This has got to be Cambridge.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13"One of the universities there."
0:32:13 > 0:32:18But it isn't. When I had a look at some photographs, it just isn't the right place.
0:32:18 > 0:32:22I wish we could identify it. It would make such a difference if we knew where it was.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- How much do you think, then? - 10 to 20 on that.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29- They only paid £20. Duncan liked it. - Did they?- Yeah.- That's all right.
0:32:29 > 0:32:35Wendy went with the Art Nouveau serving spoons, nicely presented in their case.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37Do you rate those?
0:32:37 > 0:32:39I'd like them a lot more if they were silver.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42But EPNS, they are. They're very well presented.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44very stylish, it has to be said.
0:32:44 > 0:32:49This typical sort of whiplash effect for the piercing on the top.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51They're very stylish.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54- Having said all that, how much? - 20 to 40.
0:32:54 > 0:32:59- Oh, Lordy. £75. - 75?! Gosh! That's a good price.
0:32:59 > 0:33:02- That's taken the wind out of your sails.- It has.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05£75 is a tad too much.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09- If anything drags this team down, it'll be those.- Yeah.
0:33:09 > 0:33:13- They'll need their bonus buy. - Definitely.- Let's have a look at it.
0:33:14 > 0:33:20Now, you happy punters. £122.50 was given to Henry
0:33:20 > 0:33:24to go and find you your bonus buy. What did you find?
0:33:24 > 0:33:30Well, I bought something - I know Duncan and Wendy weren't keen on spending lots of money.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32So I hope you like this.
0:33:32 > 0:33:37- Ooh, yes!- Yes, nautical!- What do you think to that?- Excellent!- Yes.
0:33:37 > 0:33:44It's a Prattware jug. Obviously it's got Captain Hardy here and Admiral Nelson.
0:33:44 > 0:33:49I think it's a commemorative piece made in 1905 for the centenary.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53Unfortunately, it is damaged, but you can't have it all.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57People are going to recognise it as a good item.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59How much did you pay for it?
0:33:59 > 0:34:06- I paid the princely sum of £40. - That's all right!- It'll make at least 100, easily!
0:34:06 > 0:34:08That's OK. That's the damage, is it?
0:34:08 > 0:34:10You can't have it all, as I say.
0:34:10 > 0:34:13- I really like that. - Hopefully, it'll sail away!
0:34:13 > 0:34:15- Super. Really nice.- Super.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Hold that thought that it might make £100.
0:34:18 > 0:34:23For viewers at home, let's see what the auctioneer thinks about Henry's jug.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27- There you go, Robert. - Thank you very much.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29A Prattware pot for you.
0:34:29 > 0:34:36Battle of Trafalgar, 1805. Here we've got Nelson on one side, Hardy on the other.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39- Kiss me.- Kiss me, exactly.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42- No, thanks!- Not today! - Not this week!
0:34:42 > 0:34:47And we've got a jug. We think it was probably made to commemorate 100 years
0:34:47 > 0:34:52- since the Battle of Trafalgar and the impact it had.- A great victory. - Yes.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55- What's it worth?- The estimate we're saying 20 to 30.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59- £40 paid.- Did they?- By Henry.- OK. - It's fair enough.- It might do it.
0:34:59 > 0:35:03Somebody will be sufficiently intrigued. That's marvellous.
0:35:03 > 0:35:08- Thank you, Robert.- Thank you. - Looking forward to the outcome with interest!
0:35:13 > 0:35:18- Now, you both went with the Leaper pots.- Yes.- You liked them, didn't you?
0:35:18 > 0:35:23- The colour.- You paid £82.50. He's estimated 30 to £50.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27- Wonderful.- Marvellous.- It's not so wonderful!- Each?- No, for the two!
0:35:27 > 0:35:33- Let's hope it was a leap of faith! - It didn't exactly ignite his enthusiasm.
0:35:33 > 0:35:38He likes them, but not to take to anything like a leveller.
0:35:38 > 0:35:41Anyway, first is the Leaper vases. Here they come.
0:35:41 > 0:35:44Lot 155, ladies and gentlemen,
0:35:44 > 0:35:46the Eric Leaper vases.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29Well done, Henry, making that profit.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15That's your decision, isn't it?
0:41:15 > 0:41:18That was the decision. Minus £10.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21Overall, you're preserved your £18.
0:41:21 > 0:41:24- Good.- Don't say a word to the blues. - Won't. Zip.
0:41:24 > 0:41:26Very good. Nice little profit.
0:41:31 > 0:41:35Well, teams, this is fun, isn't it? Been chatting?
0:41:35 > 0:41:36- No.- No.
0:41:36 > 0:41:40I can reveal that you have near identical scores!
0:41:40 > 0:41:41Oooh!
0:41:41 > 0:41:42Nail-biting!
0:41:42 > 0:41:48Except that one team has the nearly identical number but in the minus score.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53That team today is, I'm afraid, the blues.
0:41:53 > 0:41:58- Oh.- What a shame!- It's really crucifying, isn't it?- It is.
0:41:58 > 0:42:02Minus £17.50. That's what you got.
0:42:02 > 0:42:05- Bad luck, isn't it?- Yes. - Typical.- Awful.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08- So close, yet so far. - You've been a great team.
0:42:08 > 0:42:14But the victors today are going to walk away with the near identical score of £18 but in real money!
0:42:14 > 0:42:16- Yay!- Yay!- They made a profit.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19£18. Here we go, darling.
0:42:19 > 0:42:24- Look at that.- Thank you.- That twitchy finger is gathering it up.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27- Here's your three pounds. - Thank you very much.
0:42:27 > 0:42:31£18. Congratulations. Because you got effectively free profit,
0:42:31 > 0:42:34we're going to treat this as a golden gavel situation
0:42:34 > 0:42:40- and out of my pocket come the modern equivalents of golden gavels!- Ooh!

0:42:50 > 0:42:54There's your golden gavel pin. There you go, Jonathan.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58- Have you had any before? - No, this is my first.- Your first.
0:42:58 > 0:43:03- Well, you can wear this pin with pride I tell you.- Thank you.
0:43:03 > 0:43:07We've lobbed out very, very few of them over the years!
0:43:07 > 0:43:09You cracked it. Congratulations.
0:43:09 > 0:43:12Join us soon for some more Bargain Hunting, yes?
0:43:12 > 0:43:13Yes!
