0:00:04 > 0:00:06With over 800 programmes under our belt,

0:00:06 > 0:00:10we don't get that many firsts any more.

0:00:10 > 0:00:15But this is the first time we have ever filmed in Cornwall.

0:00:15 > 0:00:19Let's go Bargain Hunting! Yes!

0:00:46 > 0:00:50We're at the Royal Cornwall showground, by Wadebridge,

0:00:50 > 0:00:54where they've been holding auctions, fairs and markets

0:00:54 > 0:00:56since the 14th century.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00So, what's coming up?

0:01:01 > 0:01:05Phil and the red team are out for a Sunday drive.

0:01:05 > 0:01:08I feel like a chauffeur. I need a peaked cap!

0:01:08 > 0:01:12Henry and the blue team are out for a bit of a splurge!

0:01:13 > 0:01:19- I want to spend bigger.- Aim higher. - Spend bigger money.- Fair enough.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23And I take a trip to Marazion to uncover a little Cornish wonder

0:01:23 > 0:01:25at St Michael's Mount.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Time to meet the teams.

0:01:31 > 0:01:36Today we've got two teams of friends. Kathryn and Kathleen for the reds,

0:01:36 > 0:01:39- and Mark and Trevor for the blues. Hi, everyone.- Hello!

0:01:39 > 0:01:42Lovely to see you. Boys, I hope you're going to spend lots.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46- That's our intention, Tim.- Football brought you together.- Correct.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49We met each other playing against each other.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51Probably 20-odd years ago.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55Showing our age! Then we moved on to coaching children

0:01:55 > 0:01:57and we've been friends ever since.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00Trevor, you're a tattoo artist. Tell us about that.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03I've got my own studio. I've been tattooing for eight years.

0:02:03 > 0:02:08It's going from strength to strength. I enjoy it. You meet some great people.

0:02:08 > 0:02:13How does tattoos work these days? Do people want "Mum" on their fingers?

0:02:13 > 0:02:18To be honest, it's very varied now. People are more adventurous.

0:02:18 > 0:02:22- It's not just sailors now who are having them.- No.- All walks of life.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25Male and female. It's great.

0:02:25 > 0:02:29Mark, you're a talented duo, you two, and definitely not to be tangled with.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- You're a martial arts specialist. - Yes, I'm not sure about a specialist

0:02:33 > 0:02:35but I'm a martial arts instructor, yes.

0:02:35 > 0:02:40Must be a specialist to instruct it. Which particular martial art?

0:02:40 > 0:02:44I cover Tae Kwando and kick boxing.

0:02:44 > 0:02:50- Brilliant. Do people do it for self-defence, or not really? - Yes, that's the overriding reason.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Most people come in for self-defence

0:02:52 > 0:02:55and everybody thinks it's about punching and kicking,

0:02:55 > 0:03:01but it's heightening people's awareness and getting them to walk tall and confidently

0:03:01 > 0:03:06- to keep you safe, I hope.- Capable of reacting the way you need to. - If you need to.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08I react by calling Trevor!

0:03:08 > 0:03:14Fair enough! I understand. What's the strategy for you today?

0:03:14 > 0:03:17Who's doing the bargaining?

0:03:17 > 0:03:23- Hopefully, it'll be a team effort. - See how it goes. - You're being very coy!

0:03:23 > 0:03:25Now, Kathleen, how did you two meet?

0:03:25 > 0:03:30Kathryn and I met at a local croquet club. We became firm friends

0:03:30 > 0:03:34and we're often partners in croquet doubles matches.

0:03:34 > 0:03:39- Kathryn, you keep yourself busy in all sorts of departments.- Yes.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42I'm a senior observer with the Institute of Advanced Motorists.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- You're an IAM.- I am an IAM!

0:03:47 > 0:03:51I had to take my Advanced Motorist test and I had an observer.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53I was petrified, I have to say!

0:03:53 > 0:03:58- But we're all lovely.- You're lovely until you're driving the car

0:03:58 > 0:04:01with the examiner and the observer in the car with you.

0:04:01 > 0:04:07- I'm sure you did very well. - It was a very fortuitous pass.- Good.

0:04:07 > 0:04:12Now, retired greyhounds. You take them for walks.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14- I have a retired greyhound. - Do you?- Yes.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19Her full name is Mingler's Leaf, but now she's just known as Leaf.

0:04:19 > 0:04:24She was bred in Ireland, brought over to Essex for the racing.

0:04:24 > 0:04:26But retired before the age of two.

0:04:26 > 0:04:30- She was brought to Cornwall and now lives with me.- Lovely.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33Does she ever take a poke at a rabbit?

0:04:33 > 0:04:39- Given half the chance!- What tricks have you got up your sleeve today?

0:04:39 > 0:04:44We're aware that there's not too much money in Cornwall because of employment.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48So we'll probably not spend the full £300.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52- That's your strategy?- It is. - And your team are happy with this?

0:04:52 > 0:04:56- Are you happy?- I am.- OK, fine.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Well, good luck with that.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02Now the money moment. Here comes the £300 apiece. There you go.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05You know the rules. Your experts await.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Off you go and very, very good luck.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11What fun!

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Luckily, our rules are so simple

0:05:19 > 0:05:22even our experts understand them!

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Right, Henry, we've got one hour.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27We need to find three items.

0:05:27 > 0:05:28We've got £300 to spend.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31- Excellent. Good luck. - Good luck, mate.

0:05:32 > 0:05:33Told you so!

0:05:33 > 0:05:36Not sure that's in the rules, Phil.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39I feel like a chauffeur. I need a peaked cap!

0:05:39 > 0:05:43You're meant to be an expert, not a taxi service!

0:05:44 > 0:05:49You're a big fellow. I won't have any trouble negotiating today!

0:05:49 > 0:05:52As we're in Cornwall, it would be nice to find some Troika.

0:05:52 > 0:05:56- Come on. Let's go Bargain Hunting! - Oi, that's my line, you!

0:05:56 > 0:05:58I'll try not to get you run over!

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- They are what they are, really. Pretty, but...- Move on.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13- A fez!- I've always wanted one of them.

0:06:13 > 0:06:17- Is that your best Tommy Cooper impersonation?- That's fantastic, isn't it?

0:06:17 > 0:06:21- Baxter prints are always popular. - There's another one there.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- What do you think, Trev? You're very arty.- The subject's nice. - "News from Australia."

0:06:25 > 0:06:32- Look up here. Emigration in Australia.- What do you think of it with your artistic eye?

0:06:32 > 0:06:37- Would you live with that? - The detail.- If I'm honest, I love the subject,

0:06:37 > 0:06:39but I don't like the mount and the frame.

0:06:39 > 0:06:44But that can change. But I do like the subject cos it's well done.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48I think it's ink, I think. But I do like the subject. The farmhouse.

0:06:48 > 0:06:52It's not ink, it's a print, basically.

0:06:52 > 0:06:57Baxter, like Le Blond, was very popular

0:06:57 > 0:06:59during the 19th century.

0:06:59 > 0:07:04I think the subject matter is the interesting thing about this particular print.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Prints, in general, don't sell terrifically well,

0:07:07 > 0:07:11but this is a nice thing. £12 is not a lot of money for it.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Up to you. See what you can get it for.

0:07:14 > 0:07:18- Shall we try?- Have a go and use your charm.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Can I ask about your Baxter print, please? News from Australia.

0:07:21 > 0:07:26- You've got it down for £12. - Yes. Very reasonable, isn't it?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29- I think you could be more reasonable.- Do you really?

0:07:29 > 0:07:33I can knock a pound off, if it helps.

0:07:33 > 0:07:38A pound. We were looking for about eight pounds.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41- Were you?- Not eight pounds off, eight pounds buying price.

0:07:41 > 0:07:44- Why don't we settle on nine? - That's very reasonable.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47- Nine pounds is great. Very fair. - It's done the deal.- Thank you.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Thank you.

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Good team work, boys.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54- He's looking a bit angry. - He's rather fierce.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57There's one thing we need to ask ourselves here.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00Do either of you like it?

0:08:00 > 0:08:02I have to admit not particularly.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04Why are we looking at it, then?

0:08:04 > 0:08:07Come on, girls. Get with the programme!

0:08:07 > 0:08:11- I want to spend bigger. - OK.- Spend bigger money.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- Fair enough.- As it's not mine, I don't mind spending it!

0:08:14 > 0:08:16My sentiments entirely.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18All aboard.

0:08:18 > 0:08:20And your fares!

0:08:20 > 0:08:24STEPTOE AND SON THEME MUSIC

0:08:32 > 0:08:36Girls, about time you parted with some cash, I'd say.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39Is that a nurse's buckle?

0:08:39 > 0:08:40That is nice.

0:08:40 > 0:08:46- I know nurses still like their buckles.- At auction that'll make 50 to £80.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50That would be my shot. Depends what this gentleman can do for you.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53What would be your best price on this, please?

0:08:53 > 0:08:55- VENDOR:- It needs to be 75.

0:08:57 > 0:09:01Do you remember what we said when we set out?

0:09:03 > 0:09:06- I said I really wanted you to buy things that you liked.- Yes.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10- I think that is nice.- Yes. - Would you like to own it?

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- Yes, I would.- Would you like to own it?- Yes.

0:09:12 > 0:09:14Would you do 65?

0:09:14 > 0:09:18- It's got to be 75. I've got 95 on it.- How about 70?

0:09:18 > 0:09:20- No. I've given you my best shot.- OK.

0:09:20 > 0:09:24It's seen some wear. It doesn't quite clasp cleanly.

0:09:24 > 0:09:28But I quite like the style of it.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31You just have to decide if you want to buy it or not.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33- Up to you.- Are you happy to go for it?

0:09:33 > 0:09:35..Yes.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38You can't do 72, even?

0:09:38 > 0:09:41- Tell you what. I'll do £70 for it. - Thank you.- Right.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44- 70, then.- 70, yes?- Yes. - Good girl. Well done.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Thank you very much. - It's a lovely piece.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48- Beautiful.- Thanks very much. - Beautiful.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51Get the money out, girls.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Kathryn, you tough negotiator! Go, girl!

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- We just need a nurse, now, that needs a buckle!- Yes!

0:09:58 > 0:10:02What have we got here. We've got Mr Punch up there.

0:10:02 > 0:10:07He's based on one of the cast-iron doorstops you get in the Victorian period.

0:10:07 > 0:10:09We've got something in common!

0:10:09 > 0:10:11I didn't like to say, but...

0:10:11 > 0:10:15- He's used to it. That's cast iron, is it?- No, it's not, no.

0:10:15 > 0:10:20It's pottery. Shall we have a look? I'm not sure of the age of it.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- Oh, it has got a bit of age to it. - Stafford.

0:10:25 > 0:10:26Staffordshire ware.

0:10:28 > 0:10:34That back stamp suggests it's probably 1930s, '40s, that sort of period.

0:10:34 > 0:10:40- There we are. Got the three knots there.- The Staffordshire knots.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42What's the Kent mark on it, then?

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Why does it say Kent? Is that a maker?

0:10:44 > 0:10:49That's basically the factory. Staffordshire ware Kent factory.

0:10:49 > 0:10:54But that's quite... I have to say, from my point of view, I quite like that.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57- It's in really good nick. - Yes, for its age.

0:10:57 > 0:11:00But I want you guys to like it. It's 45 quid.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04- We want to spend more than that, really.- We do.

0:11:07 > 0:11:14How much is your...little, um, cigar holder or cigarette holder, please?

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- 25 on it, sir.- Could we have a look at it, please?- You can.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22There's a great psychology to this business.

0:11:22 > 0:11:27You say to him, "How much is that?" And he says, "I've got 25 on it."

0:11:27 > 0:11:33Does that mean that's the price or does it mean he might dip a little bit? Terrific psychology.

0:11:33 > 0:11:37There's a lot of psychology involved. It leaves room for a little negotiation.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39A little negotiation.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42- Do you like that, girls? - I like the colouring of it.

0:11:42 > 0:11:46- It's amber, isn't it?- Amber and a 9-carat gold band.- Gold banding.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48Is there a call for these now?

0:11:48 > 0:11:55People do collect them. It's nice that it's got the original case, with "London made" on there.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Depends, how much this gentleman will sell it to you for.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02I'm going to sell it to you for as much as I can get!

0:12:02 > 0:12:04We're coming from a different direction.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06We want to give you as little as we have to!

0:12:06 > 0:12:10I see. I think £20 would be fair.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13- Is that the end?- It's the absolute dead.- Is it?

0:12:13 > 0:12:16- How about 18?- I was going to say 15!

0:12:16 > 0:12:18Oh, well, sorry...

0:12:18 > 0:12:22You bring them out and they get you into trouble before you've even started!

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Terribly sorry.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26So you should be!

0:12:26 > 0:12:28Shall we go back and buy Mr Punch?

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Which gets two. So we've got loads of money left in the pot.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35- That's what I thought.- Then just go for it.- He has grown on me.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38It's bright, it's colourful, in really good nick.

0:12:38 > 0:12:41- It's got a bit of age. - Got a big nose.- Novelty.

0:12:41 > 0:12:45It looks like you. Let's go and speak to the guy and see what he's about.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47- It's in the bag, then.- Exactly.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49I think you talked yourselves into that, boys.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52Those are hallmarked silver.

0:12:52 > 0:12:5420 quid.

0:12:54 > 0:12:58- What are the handles made of? - Stag horn.- Oh, goodness.

0:13:00 > 0:13:04- It's Elkington's. And it's got the original box.- The original box.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06Which do you prefer out of these two?

0:13:06 > 0:13:11- This one.- I think that would have probably a better chance at auction.

0:13:11 > 0:13:15I'll tell you what I'll look at. If you went to a modern kitchen shop

0:13:15 > 0:13:18and bought a carving set

0:13:18 > 0:13:21with stag horn handles and silver mounts, what would it cost?

0:13:21 > 0:13:24- Oh, a lot of money. - Yes.- Cutlery is expensive.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27I think that's nice.

0:13:27 > 0:13:31So do I. It's got the original box, as well.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34- From this side of the fence, would £20 buy it?- No, it wouldn't, sir.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36Would 25 buy it?

0:13:36 > 0:13:38I'm afraid not, sir.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41What would buy it under 30 quid?

0:13:41 > 0:13:43£29.50.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46- OK. We've got a price, then. - Can we have the two?

0:13:46 > 0:13:51- Well...- £42.- I've got to work this out, now. How much is that?

0:13:51 > 0:13:53- It's a bargain, that's how much it is.- It's £42.

0:13:53 > 0:13:58- Is that...- You'll do well. It'll make money.- 24 quid and £18. Is that right?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00If you do it that way, yes.

0:14:00 > 0:14:04- Could you keep them both for us for 30 minutes?- I'll put it aside.

0:14:04 > 0:14:08- Thank you ever so much. Thank you. - Most kind.- Thank you.

0:14:08 > 0:14:09Good negotiating!

0:14:09 > 0:14:12But reds, you've still only got one item.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14Would you do that for 35 for us?

0:14:14 > 0:14:18Let me tell you, originally, I had 65 pounds on that one.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21I've reduced it to £45.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24But I can knock it down again. I can knock you down another £10.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28- Every little helps, to be honest. We'd appreciate that.- 35.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30Thank you. You're a gentleman.

0:14:30 > 0:14:31Thank you. Much obliged.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35- Excellent. That was a good deal, that was.- Yeah, in the bag.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38- Sorted.- Job done. - We're punching above our weight!

0:14:38 > 0:14:41- AS PUNCH:- That's the way to do it!

0:14:46 > 0:14:49For when the salt doth lose its saltness,

0:14:49 > 0:14:52wherewith will he season it?

0:14:52 > 0:14:55Probably with one of these jokers.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Look at that. Isn't that gorgeous?

0:14:58 > 0:15:03This is a hoof-form salt cellar or condiment.

0:15:03 > 0:15:07Absolutely original, except it's got the wrong lining in it.

0:15:07 > 0:15:13If I take that out, you can see that's a piece of 1960s' turned hardwood

0:15:13 > 0:15:16that somebody's shoved inside.

0:15:16 > 0:15:21But if you examine the silverwork itself, just look how well this has been crafted.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24Because here we've got a horse's hoof

0:15:24 > 0:15:32that's got this nice, hairy, naturalistic, lumpy bit on the back

0:15:32 > 0:15:37and if I turn it over, we've got the most perfectly formed horseshoe

0:15:37 > 0:15:45enclosing a frog, which is this diamond or lozenge-shaped piece

0:15:45 > 0:15:50which is actually what does exist underneath real horses' hooves.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Isn't that beautiful?

0:15:52 > 0:15:59If you look carefully, in the middle of the hairy bit you can see the hallmark, for London 1891.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02What would I use them for?

0:16:02 > 0:16:05Well, you could use them as condiments, either both for salt

0:16:05 > 0:16:08or both for mustard, or either or.

0:16:08 > 0:16:12And indeed if you had the proper glass liners blown,

0:16:12 > 0:16:14which wouldn't be difficult to do,

0:16:14 > 0:16:17you could use them for novelty posy holders.

0:16:17 > 0:16:23In short, in any sort of form, they would grace anybody's dining table.

0:16:23 > 0:16:28What are they worth? £220, the dealer is asking.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30Is that expensive? I don't think so.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Is it cheap? I don't think so.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34What I think you should do

0:16:34 > 0:16:38is to hoof it round there and get your wallet out!

0:16:38 > 0:16:40And that goes for you, too, ladies!

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Go on! Hoof it!

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- Always lock up before you leave the car!- Yes!

0:16:45 > 0:16:49Now, Trevor, you've got something you'd like to get off your chest.

0:16:49 > 0:16:54We've got a few pound left, a couple of nice objects in the bag, at the right price.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57We can relax, we've got a bit of time on the clock.

0:16:57 > 0:17:02Let's see what we can find. You're going to guide us. It's on your head, really.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05- What do you think of that? - Truthfully, not much.- Do you not?

0:17:05 > 0:17:08- No, so that can go back. - That's because it's not my thing.

0:17:08 > 0:17:12- Pressure, pressure, pressure. - Pressure.- The pressure is on.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15Looks like the heat's rising for the red team, too.

0:17:15 > 0:17:19We'll have to whizz up here, then you have to make a decision.

0:17:19 > 0:17:20Tough talking, Philip.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23- Nothing's springing out.- No.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26It's quite a substantial piece.

0:17:29 > 0:17:33- I think I was born too soon for that!- Yes?

0:17:33 > 0:17:34I really do.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36It's got to just spring out, though.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38It's got to punch us.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Oh, my goodness!

0:17:40 > 0:17:43You've got ten minutes. We need to focus now.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Focus, focus, focus.

0:17:45 > 0:17:46Time to grip it, Phil.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Go and stand over there.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51What would you buy?

0:17:51 > 0:17:53- I think the carving set.- And?

0:17:53 > 0:17:56The cigar holder.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00I think I would go for the cheroot holder and the carving set.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03I'd go for the cheroot holder and the carving set.

0:18:03 > 0:18:05- Yes.- That's good.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07- That's all three of us. Let's go. - Wow!

0:18:07 > 0:18:10- That's a definite decision. - Excellent.

0:18:10 > 0:18:11About time!

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Come on, Henry!

0:18:13 > 0:18:15I'm thinking. I'm thinking.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20We've got to just hope that he hasn't sold this now!

0:18:20 > 0:18:22Put your foot down, then!

0:18:22 > 0:18:26How about some fish servers? Silver.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28Georgian. Can we have a look at them, please?

0:18:30 > 0:18:34I'm not going to railroad you into this. We've only got six minutes.

0:18:34 > 0:18:39So we've got Sheffield plate and a combination of silver.

0:18:39 > 0:18:45The hallmark, slightly faded, is 1820. It's that sort of period.

0:18:45 > 0:18:50They're £108. It's not a huge amount of money. You'd need to get more off, really.

0:18:50 > 0:18:55- Yeah.- To put them into auction. But if you get the right person that comes in,

0:18:55 > 0:18:57they'd look great on a table, wouldn't they?

0:18:57 > 0:19:00I like them. Really nice.

0:19:00 > 0:19:05- If you don't get that person in... - Then they might make 60 quid.

0:19:05 > 0:19:09It won't be 40 cos they have lovely silver grips. They're early.

0:19:09 > 0:19:13If you only think, in your experience, they might do 60 or just over,

0:19:13 > 0:19:17there's no point buying it if they're going to be 70 or 80 quid.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20- We might as well go back to the other things we've looked at.- OK.

0:19:20 > 0:19:25Unless the lady does them for 60 quid. Then it might wipe its face!

0:19:25 > 0:19:28I'm starting to wonder who's in charge here!

0:19:28 > 0:19:31- I can do them for 80. - It's still too much.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34It's touch and go but we're running out of time.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37If we do come back, can we meet in the middle at 70?

0:19:39 > 0:19:41OK.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43- 70.- Yeah?

0:19:43 > 0:19:46- Two more minutes and then come back. - Two minutes.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48We couldn't resist your charm(!)

0:19:48 > 0:19:52- That's what sold it to us, really. - Was it?

0:19:53 > 0:19:56- It was £42, we believe. - 42 is what we agreed.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59If you're happy. If you're not happy, I don't know where we go.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03- We're definitely happy. - All right, then. Well done, girls.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Two in one and you girls are done.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09- How long have we got, Henry? - 30 seconds.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11- Can you run?- Come on, let's do it.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13- Trevor loves a run!- Yeah, love it(!)

0:20:13 > 0:20:14So do we!

0:20:14 > 0:20:16- Go on, run! - She's talking to somebody!

0:20:19 > 0:20:22Done! We're going to buy them!

0:20:22 > 0:20:23Thank you. Very kind.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26- OK.- Thank you very much.

0:20:26 > 0:20:31- Plenty of time to spare?- Not really. That was down to the wire, that was.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Phew! That was close.

0:20:33 > 0:20:36Now, what was it that the red team bought?

0:20:36 > 0:20:41The reds got under way with a silver nurse's belt buckle.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45- Would you like to own it? - Yes, I would.- Would you?- Yes.

0:20:45 > 0:20:51They deliberated for ages before finally agreeing on an amber cheroot holder

0:20:51 > 0:20:53for £16,

0:20:53 > 0:20:57and a stag-horn-handled carving set

0:20:57 > 0:20:59in its original box.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03- We'll definitely have these two. - Well done, girls. Well done.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07It's amazing who you bump into at these fairs!

0:21:07 > 0:21:10Very nice. This is how the idle rich go round, is it?

0:21:10 > 0:21:13How about this, girls?

0:21:13 > 0:21:16- You've had the treatment today! - Yes.- We've been spoiled.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19I've been flogging up and down these hillsides

0:21:19 > 0:21:22while our only vehicle goes off with you lot!

0:21:22 > 0:21:27- Very good. Have you had a lovely time?- We have, thank you.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30Good for you. Which is your favourite bit, Kathryn?

0:21:30 > 0:21:32It has to be the nurse's buckle.

0:21:32 > 0:21:35- That's your favourite piece. - Very much so.

0:21:35 > 0:21:39- Is that the piece that will bring the biggest profit?- I'm not sure.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43- Maybe the carving set.- That will bring the profit? Good.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46- How's your driver - sorry, expert! - Chauffeur.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48Pull them, Serrell!

0:21:48 > 0:21:51Don't move, you could run over my foot!

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Anyway, how much did you spend all round?

0:21:54 > 0:21:58- £112.- How much?!- 112.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00- On all three pieces?- Yes.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02- Gosh, you've been economical. - We have.

0:22:02 > 0:22:07So could we have 188 of leftover lolly?

0:22:07 > 0:22:13Philip Serrell, this is your task to go for the bonus buy. Here it comes.

0:22:13 > 0:22:17- Thanks, Tim. You two will have to leave me now.- Oh, yes! OK.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19- See you later.- Stay with me.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21- Good luck, Phil.- Thanks, Timbo.

0:22:21 > 0:22:25Meanwhile, why don't we remind ourselves what the blue team bought?

0:22:26 > 0:22:30They all felt the Baxter print was good news for £9.

0:22:31 > 0:22:35- I think £9 is great. Very fair.- He's done the deal.- Thank you very much.

0:22:35 > 0:22:40Then Henry steers them towards a Kent pottery figure of Punch and Toby.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45- We've got something in common, him and I!- I didn't like to say that!

0:22:47 > 0:22:51And after a sprint finish, they dished up a pair of silver fish servers.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56As long as you're happy, that's all we care about.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00I'm happy. We could spend all day here with the same results.

0:23:00 > 0:23:05- How much did you spend? - We spent £114.- Is that all?

0:23:05 > 0:23:09- So we're giving Henry...- 186.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13- Got the 186.- I've got it.- Well done.

0:23:13 > 0:23:14There you go.

0:23:14 > 0:23:18There you go. Quite a challenge to go and spend that lot.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22It is, yes. I've been listening to the lads

0:23:22 > 0:23:26- and I'll go out there and... - Don't buy any tosh!

0:23:26 > 0:23:30Tosh? I've got blinkers on. I'll try and avoid tosh!

0:23:30 > 0:23:33Absolutely. I like this word, tosh.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Good luck, chaps. Good luck, Henry.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37Meanwhile, we're heading off somewhere special,

0:23:37 > 0:23:41to St Michael's Mount in the toe end of Cornwall

0:23:41 > 0:23:44and let's just hope that the tide's not in.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51This iconic Cornish landmark

0:23:51 > 0:23:54is St Michael's Mount.

0:23:54 > 0:23:58Rising from Mount's Bay on the south coast,

0:23:58 > 0:24:02it's been visited for centuries by people who've travelled from far and wide,

0:24:02 > 0:24:05each with their own reason for doing so.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11So, what brings me here today?

0:24:11 > 0:24:18Well, I'm in search of some paintings by an artist nicknamed The Cornish Wonder.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20Ooh, arr!

0:24:26 > 0:24:29John Opie is the artist in question

0:24:29 > 0:24:33and dotted throughout the house are examples of his works.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39And they're here due to the generous patronage

0:24:39 > 0:24:42of The Mount's owner at the time, Sir John St Aubyn.

0:24:44 > 0:24:48This is the earliest John Opie painting in the collection.

0:24:48 > 0:24:55It was painted around 1778 and it shows a young man.

0:24:55 > 0:25:00Opie was 17 when he painted this picture

0:25:00 > 0:25:04and the subject, the young man, is himself.

0:25:05 > 0:25:11Can you imagine a 17-year-old doing a self-portrait of this quality?

0:25:11 > 0:25:14It's just extraordinary. And it's no wonder

0:25:14 > 0:25:18he was taken up and his talent revered.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22Just look at the way his expression is intense.

0:25:22 > 0:25:27Those fresh cheeks, with the bloom of youth.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32But yet, within his eye, he's a wise man.

0:25:34 > 0:25:38Another early portrait is this fellow.

0:25:38 > 0:25:42This is a portrait of Dolly Pentreath.

0:25:42 > 0:25:48Now, old Dolly lived down the coast in Mousehole.

0:25:48 > 0:25:54And she lived to the grand old age, it's said, of 102.

0:25:54 > 0:26:00And she's celebrated because she was the last surviving native Cornish speaker

0:26:00 > 0:26:02as a first language. Indeed,

0:26:02 > 0:26:08Opie captured her here just before she died.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12It is an extraordinarily haunting image.

0:26:14 > 0:26:16Isn't she marvellous?

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Formidable?

0:26:18 > 0:26:23An ancient matriarch of the St Aubyn line, methinks.

0:26:23 > 0:26:26Well, you're wrong. Painted by Opie,

0:26:26 > 0:26:29and it's a portrait of Mrs Bell,

0:26:29 > 0:26:32who's the fifth Sir John's housekeeper.

0:26:32 > 0:26:38Gosh. But painted in the manner of George Rumney.

0:26:38 > 0:26:44It's almost as if Opie, who's recorded as not being sophisticated,

0:26:44 > 0:26:49he doesn't speak like an educated painter,

0:26:49 > 0:26:51he's a bit of a rough diamond,

0:26:51 > 0:26:56and some would say that he was more at ease painting servants

0:26:56 > 0:26:58than he was aristocrats.

0:27:00 > 0:27:05John Opie is principally remembered today as a portrait painter.

0:27:05 > 0:27:11His landscapes are rare. Indeed, it's thought he only painted five of them.

0:27:11 > 0:27:15Two were views of St Michael's Mount

0:27:15 > 0:27:18and this one is by far the most famous.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20What I think is intriguing

0:27:20 > 0:27:23is what these characters are up to in the foreground.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27The Mount is behind. They are sorting out

0:27:27 > 0:27:34by the light of a lantern, apparently some sort of illicit fishing catch.

0:27:34 > 0:27:38This looks to me like fishy business.

0:27:38 > 0:27:41Of course, the big question today is,

0:27:41 > 0:27:45what sort of catch will our teams land over at the auction?

0:28:01 > 0:28:07This is lovely. We're in Lostwithiel at Jefferys Auctions with Ian Morris, our auctioneer.

0:28:07 > 0:28:10- Hello, Ian.- How are you? - Very nice to be here.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14Now, first up is the hallmarked nurse's buckle.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18It's nice. Nicely pierced and decorated.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20But quite average

0:28:20 > 0:28:26in the sense that we do see a lot of silver nurses' buckles come through.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29They were produced in fair numbers down to a level.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32What's your level? Level with me!

0:28:32 > 0:28:35Maybe only 20 to £30. Maybe a little bit more than that.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38Maybe 35, but I can't see more.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41Dear, oh, dear. £70 they paid. So that's a bit of a dark hole.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43What about the cheroot holder?

0:28:43 > 0:28:49Again, I haven't put a lot of money on it because smoking is not PC nowadays.

0:28:49 > 0:28:52But it's in a nice case, it's got a gold rim

0:28:52 > 0:28:55and it's amber. So three things going for it.

0:28:55 > 0:28:58Apart from what it is, which is difficult.

0:28:58 > 0:29:02- So I put an estimate of 20 to £30 on.- That's not too bad.

0:29:02 > 0:29:06- They only paid £16.- It's a mark of the times, I think.

0:29:06 > 0:29:09Last item is the handled carving set.

0:29:09 > 0:29:15I don't think it is horn handled. I think it's wood simulated to look like horn.

0:29:15 > 0:29:19- But nevertheless, what a nice set. - It's a good carving set.

0:29:19 > 0:29:24- Being Elkington, it's a good make. - So how do you rate that one, then?

0:29:25 > 0:29:31Carving sets, cutlery generally, not so great. So I've been conservative at 15 to 30.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33£26 they paid.

0:29:33 > 0:29:40So I think it's going to be the nurse's silver buckle that drags them back, if anything.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43In which case they'll need their bonus buy. Let's have a look.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45OK, Kathryn, Kathleen.

0:29:45 > 0:29:52You spent £112 and you gave Philip £188. What did he spend it on?

0:29:52 > 0:29:56I bought these, because I thought that they were fun.

0:29:57 > 0:30:03There are five of them. I haven't broken any, I've just brought three.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05I just think they're really fun things.

0:30:05 > 0:30:07I love the way they're decorated.

0:30:07 > 0:30:09What price did you pay for them?

0:30:09 > 0:30:12I paid £35 for the lot.

0:30:12 > 0:30:13For the lot.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16And I think that's quite cheap. I just love them.

0:30:16 > 0:30:22- Chariots of Fire, isn't it? - Yes. And it's the right period for Chariots of Fire, presumably.

0:30:22 > 0:30:28- We're talking about 1935 to '45, that sort of thing. - Mid-'30s, I think.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31- They're certainly different, aren't they?- Yes.

0:30:31 > 0:30:35- Is that a compliment? - Hang on to that memory.

0:30:35 > 0:30:41Let's find out for the audience at home what the auctioneer thinks about Phil's glasses.

0:30:41 > 0:30:44Right, Ian. Four more like that.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47A set of five. Would have been six. They've broken one.

0:30:47 > 0:30:52Glass is very contemporary. We sell them in fives and fours.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55You know one or two have fallen by the wayside, unfortunately.

0:30:55 > 0:31:02They've got some nice decoration, with athletes on the front. All different,

0:31:02 > 0:31:06- which is a bonus, but the enamelling's been rubbed.- Estimate?

0:31:06 > 0:31:07I've put 25 to 40.

0:31:07 > 0:31:12Philip paid £35. The team may not go with the bonus buy, after all.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14So that's it for the reds. Now for the blues.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Mark and Trevor. The Baxter print.

0:31:17 > 0:31:23"News from Australia". That really is yesterday's antique, that type of print.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26I must admit, lots of prints I've sold,

0:31:26 > 0:31:31and 20 years ago, it was a dead cert. A dead cert.

0:31:31 > 0:31:33Made great money all the time.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37So it's the kind of thing there that could be tricky to sell.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39- How much?- I've said 20 to £40.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42- Have you really?- Yes. - Well, that's brave!

0:31:42 > 0:31:46- The boy only paid £9 for it! - Oh, he's done all right, then.

0:31:46 > 0:31:51Good. An encouraging start. Now, what about Punch and Toby?

0:31:51 > 0:31:53It is a furnishing piece, isn't it?

0:31:53 > 0:31:58Not particularly old, but it's well-coloured and well-detailed.

0:31:58 > 0:32:05I think I put about 20 to 40 on that. I can see that getting towards the top end, certainly.

0:32:05 > 0:32:0820 to £40 is your estimate. £35 paid.

0:32:08 > 0:32:11So fairly tight on the money with that.

0:32:11 > 0:32:15Lastly, the fish servers with silver handles, but no case.

0:32:15 > 0:32:19No, which is a drawback for this type of thing.

0:32:19 > 0:32:26And I find that in cutlery, the thing that's most difficult to sell is fish knives, fish eaters

0:32:26 > 0:32:28- and servers.- What's it worth without the case?

0:32:28 > 0:32:31Well, I've put it at 20 to £30.

0:32:31 > 0:32:34That will be a disaster for them because they paid 70.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37They'll need their bonus buy! Let's have a look at it.

0:32:38 > 0:32:44Mark and Trevor, you've spent £114. You gave Henry £186.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46What did you spend it on, Henry?

0:32:46 > 0:32:51In today's society, you've got to think outside the box. So I went for this piece.

0:32:51 > 0:32:52What do you think to this?

0:32:52 > 0:32:55- You like watches.- I'm a watch man. That's really nice.

0:32:55 > 0:32:581970s LED watch by Mercury.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02- Retro. Do you like it? - I like it a lot.

0:33:02 > 0:33:07I paid £90 for it. It's got its original box.

0:33:07 > 0:33:11- Original instructions. - There's people that will take a fancy to this?

0:33:11 > 0:33:13I've seen them make 120 to £130.

0:33:13 > 0:33:16So you think there could be £30 worth of profit?

0:33:16 > 0:33:22Potentially. I can't guarantee what the people of Lostwithiel will bid.

0:33:22 > 0:33:26- As an item, I think you did really well.- It's a nice thing. - It's really nice.

0:33:26 > 0:33:31- Happy with that, boys?- Very nice. - We have a prediction of profit, which is what it's all about.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34It's all down to what happens in the auction.

0:33:34 > 0:33:39But for viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks of Henry's watch.

0:33:40 > 0:33:46Here we go. A nice stainless steel 1970s digital watch for you.

0:33:46 > 0:33:48Your favourite!

0:33:49 > 0:33:52It's certainly different to what we normally sell.

0:33:52 > 0:33:57Original case, which is great. And the instructions as well. And it still works.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59All great things towards it.

0:33:59 > 0:34:02But I've never sold one before.

0:34:02 > 0:34:05So a guesstimate rather than an estimate, maybe.

0:34:05 > 0:34:10- I put 25 to £40 on.- Good lord! £90 Henry invested.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14- Definitely it's not for the local market.- No.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17- It'll either come through the internet or it's a dead duck!- Yes.

0:34:17 > 0:34:19Right.

0:34:19 > 0:34:23Well, we've got a needle match here, at the end of the programme.

0:34:23 > 0:34:28Do the team trust our Henry and go with his bonus buy or not?

0:34:28 > 0:34:30We'll find out in a minute!

0:34:40 > 0:34:45- Kathleen, all right, darling?- Yes. - Kathryn? Happy?- Fine, thank you.

0:34:45 > 0:34:49- Any piece you're most anxious about, Kathryn?- The buckle.

0:34:49 > 0:34:54The nurses' buckle. The auctioneer wasn't too hot about it.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58- He put 20 to £30 on it.- Goodness. - £70 paid.

0:34:58 > 0:35:05- You're nervous because you found it? - I love it. I think it's beautiful. - That's the trouble, isn't it?

0:35:05 > 0:35:08First up is your buckle. Kathryn, stand by.

0:35:08 > 0:35:12Lot 298. The Art Nouveau marked silver nurses' buckle. Lot 298.

0:35:12 > 0:35:14What do you say? £30 away?

0:35:15 > 0:35:17£30 away? £20 away. £20 I'm bid.

0:35:17 > 0:35:19At £20. 25 with me. £30.

0:35:19 > 0:35:2135. £40? At 35.

0:35:21 > 0:35:23The bid's on the books. £40. At £40 to my left.

0:35:23 > 0:35:26At £40. I'm out. At £40, selling on my left. At £40.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29- £40 is minus £30. - Oh, dear!- Ouch!

0:35:29 > 0:35:33But it's not as bad as it might have been.

0:35:33 > 0:35:36Now, the cheroot holder.

0:35:36 > 0:35:40It's a leather-cased, 9-carat gold rimmed amber cheroot holder.

0:35:40 > 0:35:44Lot 299. £20 away? £10 away. Five I'm bid.

0:35:44 > 0:35:47At five. Six. Eight. Ten. At ten.

0:35:47 > 0:35:4812. 14? 14.

0:35:48 > 0:35:49At £14 I'm bid.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53At £14. We're done at £14.

0:35:53 > 0:35:58- £14 is minus two pounds.- Oh, dear. - With the gold band on it.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01- In its little case. - They can melt it for that.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03Here comes the carving set.

0:36:03 > 0:36:05The Elkington cased three-piece stag-horn

0:36:05 > 0:36:08silver-mounted carving set. Lot 300.

0:36:08 > 0:36:10£30 away? £30 away?

0:36:10 > 0:36:13£20 away? £15 I'm bid.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15At £15, lot 300. At £15. £18.

0:36:15 > 0:36:1720. 22.

0:36:17 > 0:36:1925? At 22 the bid's in the middle.

0:36:19 > 0:36:21At 22. 25? Are we done? At 22.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24£22 is minus four pounds.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26That's quite a carving set for £22.

0:36:26 > 0:36:30I've a funny feeling this is an inexpensive place!

0:36:30 > 0:36:32You'd come to buy here.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34Look at that. I can't believe it, girls. Sorry.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36Overall, you are minus 36.

0:36:36 > 0:36:40Big question is, are you going to preserve your losses at minus 36

0:36:40 > 0:36:43or will you go with the athletic glasses?

0:36:43 > 0:36:45- What do you think? - Nothing to lose! Go for it.

0:36:45 > 0:36:48No, no, no!

0:36:48 > 0:36:50That decision is now set.

0:36:50 > 0:36:54- Thanks!- The auctioneer has estimated 25 to £40 on them.

0:36:54 > 0:36:57He does quite like them. He quite fancies them.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Phil paid 35.

0:36:59 > 0:37:03If the auctioneer is right, he ought to know his market here,

0:37:03 > 0:37:06you may make a small profit.

0:37:06 > 0:37:07Here we go. The last item.

0:37:07 > 0:37:11Lot 306. A set of five 1930s lemonade glasses

0:37:11 > 0:37:13enamelled with athletes.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16Can I say £30 for that? £20 for that? Ten I'm bid. At ten.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18£10 I'm bid.

0:37:18 > 0:37:21£10. 12. 14. 16. 18.

0:37:21 > 0:37:24At £18 bid. 20. At £20. The bid's on the books.

0:37:24 > 0:37:2622. At 22 I'm out.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29At 22. 25? At 22. Lady's bid at 22.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32- Ooh!- Oh, dear, I'm sorry!

0:37:32 > 0:37:34It's been a fantastic day, hasn't it?!

0:37:34 > 0:37:40For ever you are pragmatic, Phil. That's minus £13 on that.

0:37:40 > 0:37:4136. 46. 49.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Minus £49.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46In today's market, that could be a winning score.

0:37:46 > 0:37:48Don't be depressed. It could be.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50- Stick to the day jobs! - Very easily. Very easily.

0:37:50 > 0:37:54- Anyway, minus 49. Don't tell the blues a thing.- No.- No.

0:37:54 > 0:37:55Thank you, girls.

0:38:00 > 0:38:04- Trevor and Mark, how are you feeling?- Excited. Can't wait.

0:38:04 > 0:38:08- Do you know how the reds got on? - No idea.- No?- No.

0:38:08 > 0:38:13We don't want you to know. Here we go. Here comes the Baxter print.

0:38:13 > 0:38:17The Baxter print, "News from Australia". What do you say?

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Can I see £30 away? £20 to start me? £15 I'm bid.

0:38:20 > 0:38:24- Good start.- 18. 20. Two? At £20 I'm bid. The bid's with me.

0:38:30 > 0:38:32A super start, boy.

0:38:32 > 0:38:35- Plus 11.- Here he is.- Look.

0:38:35 > 0:38:36A Kent pottery figure.

0:38:38 > 0:38:40£30 away for this one?

0:38:53 > 0:38:5642 at the back. At 42. 45. 48.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58- Hey!- Go on!

0:38:58 > 0:39:0048. £50? £50.

0:39:00 > 0:39:0255? 55. £60?

0:39:02 > 0:39:04At 55 at the back. 55.

0:39:04 > 0:39:09£55. £55. Henry, well done.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11That is a plus 20 number.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14- This is the loss.- Fish servers.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17Lot 324. Early Victorian silver hallmarked fish-eaters.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20Pierced blades. Lot 324. £30 away?

0:39:20 > 0:39:23£20? £15 I'm bid.

0:39:23 > 0:39:2515. 18. 20.

0:39:25 > 0:39:27At £20 I'm bid. I'll take two.

0:39:27 > 0:39:29- £20 bid.- We want more than that.

0:39:29 > 0:39:3222. 25? At 22 seated. Five?

0:39:32 > 0:39:3322, then. Going at £22.

0:39:34 > 0:39:38- £22.- Hammered.- That is minus £48.

0:39:38 > 0:39:4148! Tosh!

0:39:41 > 0:39:44That is minus seven...

0:39:44 > 0:39:4617. Minus 17.

0:39:46 > 0:39:49- Minus 17?- Well, it was looking quite pretty.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51And then it came downhill a bit.

0:39:51 > 0:39:54What are you going to do about this old electric watch?

0:39:54 > 0:39:56- Get it in. Just do it.- Henry?

0:39:56 > 0:39:59- What's the point? - As long as you don't bang me!

0:39:59 > 0:40:02- You're in trouble anyway! - Is this a knee-jerk reaction?

0:40:02 > 0:40:06- Would it be?- We've got two to go.

0:40:06 > 0:40:08- Trust me, isn't it? - Trust him?- Trust me.

0:40:08 > 0:40:11I can't trust him. He's let us down on the silver.

0:40:11 > 0:40:15- You trust him and he trusts him. Are you going with it?- You can run fast?

0:40:15 > 0:40:18- You'll need to, son. - Going with the bonus buy.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20A decision. Going with the bonus buy.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22Well, here it comes. Let's find out.

0:40:22 > 0:40:24A retro Mercury quartz watch.

0:40:24 > 0:40:28Stainless steel strap. Original box, with instructions.

0:40:28 > 0:40:30James Bond watch, I do believe. Lot 330.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32What do you say for that?

0:40:32 > 0:40:34£50 away. £30 away.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37£20 I'm bid. At £20. At £20.

0:40:37 > 0:40:38Two to get on? 22.

0:40:38 > 0:40:4025. 28 with me. £30?

0:40:40 > 0:40:42£30. My bid's out. At £30.

0:40:42 > 0:40:45To the side. And two. At 32. 35?

0:40:45 > 0:40:4735. 38? 38. £40? £40.

0:40:47 > 0:40:5045? £40. The bid's up front.

0:40:50 > 0:40:5145. 45. £50? £50.

0:40:51 > 0:40:5455? 55. £60?

0:40:54 > 0:40:56At 55, then, at the back.

0:40:56 > 0:40:5855. At 55.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00That's minus £35.

0:41:00 > 0:41:0135. 45.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04£52, boys.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08- That's not bad.- Minus £52, down the old proverbial.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11- Could be a winning score. - Could be a winning score!

0:41:15 > 0:41:20Well, well, well, well, well. Have we been chatting to one another, blues and reds?

0:41:20 > 0:41:22No? Not about the score, anyway.

0:41:22 > 0:41:26Well, this is a really, really tight competition.

0:41:26 > 0:41:30It is no secret to either team that they have made a loss.

0:41:30 > 0:41:33It is simply a question of the scale of the losses.

0:41:33 > 0:41:40- And it's exciting when there's only three pounds between the teams! - Really?

0:41:40 > 0:41:44They have made whopping losses between them,

0:41:44 > 0:41:48yet there is only three pounds difference.

0:41:48 > 0:41:53And the team that trails to the tune of three pounds, I'm afraid to say,

0:41:53 > 0:41:55are the blues.

0:41:55 > 0:41:58Which is nothing, really, is it?

0:41:58 > 0:42:01- Not in the great scheme of things. - You started off brilliantly.

0:42:01 > 0:42:04You made two whopping profits, which is marvellous.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07And then there was a downhill slither!

0:42:07 > 0:42:13- Sorry, chaps.- That downhill slither...- Our Henry.- ..dragged you into the minus 52 sector.

0:42:13 > 0:42:18- But you've had a lovely time? - Fantastic. Brilliant.- You've been smashing contestants.

0:42:18 > 0:42:22And I have to say I've never known better qualified contestants,

0:42:22 > 0:42:24who knew every nuance of this programme backwards

0:42:24 > 0:42:29- and have followed it closely. It's been a thrill to have you on the show.- Thank you.

0:42:29 > 0:42:36Thank you for all your fun and contribution. But the victors, who've won by only losing £49

0:42:36 > 0:42:40- are the reds. That's pretty rich, Kathryn.- Never expected that.

0:42:40 > 0:42:41Lovely.

0:42:41 > 0:42:45- We didn't expect to win.- And you're pleased, Kathleen?- We are.

0:42:45 > 0:42:50As you ought to be. We've had such fun. Join us soon for more Bargain Hunting, yes?

0:42:50 > 0:42:52Yes!
