0:00:07 > 0:00:09We've got the beautiful setting,
0:00:09 > 0:00:13we've got the beautiful antiques, we've got the tools of the trade!
0:00:13 > 0:00:15Let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:44 > 0:00:48We are right by the historic spa of Malvern.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52They say that the waters round these parts have magical properties,
0:00:52 > 0:00:56so, will our teams be toasting success in a moment?
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Hm!
0:01:01 > 0:01:05In today's programme, the Reds experience the highs of the auction.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08180, 190,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- 200, 210.- It's a miracle!
0:01:11 > 0:01:13And the lows.
0:01:13 > 0:01:14Who's got £20?
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- Come on!- 10, someone!
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Come on!
0:01:18 > 0:01:195!
0:01:21 > 0:01:25While the Blues give us a masterclass in beating down the price.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28- Will you take 30?- Is there another bit of movement in them?
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Is that your best price?
0:01:30 > 0:01:3232.50, please.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34I'll give you 20 to take it, shall I?
0:01:34 > 0:01:36But who will be today's victors?
0:01:36 > 0:01:39You'll have to watch to the very end to find out.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Rules are simple. But like me, really.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Each team gets £300 and an hour to shop for three items,
0:01:47 > 0:01:52and the team wins that makes the most profit at auction.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54So, let's go and meet today's team, shall we?
0:01:56 > 0:02:00So, today, for the Reds, we've got best mates Andy and Chris
0:02:00 > 0:02:04and for the Blues, we have mother and daughter combo, Karen and Jenny.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08Hello, girls. Hi, boys. Lovely to see you.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12- Andy, what do you do for a living? - Electrician. Rewire houses, buildings, things like that.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- But you are accident prone? - Very much so.
0:02:14 > 0:02:19I managed to break my nose a couple of months back on a barbecue, just moving the barbecue.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Beer in one hand and a spatula in the other,
0:02:22 > 0:02:27trying to move the barbecue, and the barbecue fell over onto the grass,
0:02:27 > 0:02:31coal everywhere and I managed to smash myself in the face with the spatula thing!
0:02:31 > 0:02:34- Well, it's repaired beautifully. - Thank you very much.
0:02:34 > 0:02:39Nobody would know. It's just as well that you're a student nurse, if your best mate's accident prone!
0:02:39 > 0:02:41It does come in quite handy with Andy,
0:02:41 > 0:02:44but I'm a mental health student nurse.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49- How did you get into nursing, Chris? - From college. I just got a Saturday job in a nursing home,
0:02:49 > 0:02:51enjoyed it and just took it from there.
0:02:51 > 0:02:57- Have you any experience in finding a bargain and making a profit? - We have tried a few times.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01The main was we tried to buy and sell a few cars.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03We didn't really make that much money, did we?
0:03:03 > 0:03:06No, the money we did make, we just went down the pub.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Hard day's work, couple of pints!
0:03:08 > 0:03:10What about tactics today, then?
0:03:10 > 0:03:14- See what catches our eye. - Have you any experience in buying and selling antiques?
0:03:14 > 0:03:19- Not really, no.- No experience in collecting antiques or anything to do with antiques?
0:03:19 > 0:03:23We just show an interest in what we see on TV and things like that.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25All you got to do is watch Bargain Hunt!
0:03:25 > 0:03:28- That's all you will ever need to know!- Yes!
0:03:28 > 0:03:31This team is going to go far, I tell you, they are well qualified.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- Are you girls quaking in your boot? - No, definitely not.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37So, Jen, what do you do for a living?
0:03:37 > 0:03:41I work for a gas company. An account manager/customer service.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43So do you do a lot of chatting on the phone?
0:03:43 > 0:03:48- I certainly do, and a lot of people ring up just for a chat.- Do they?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50A lot of people want to chat to somebody.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52You also like swimming. Tell us about that.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56I did. When we lived in South Africa, I went to boarding school
0:03:56 > 0:04:00and joined the swimming team at the school and did tryouts for South Africa,
0:04:00 > 0:04:04and I ended up swimming under 18s for South Africa, Olympic team.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- Did you?- My biggest achievement is I came second against Germany in a very big competition,
0:04:09 > 0:04:12so I think that was a very good achievement.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Karen, did you go to South Africa with the daughter or stay in England?
0:04:15 > 0:04:19We went as a family. Jenny was four, my daughter Sarah was two.
0:04:19 > 0:04:24- We emigrated, with my husband. - And did you work when you were in Africa?
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- Yes, I had a dance school there. - Do you keep the dancing up here?
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- Yes, still got a dance school. - Do you collect anything, Karen?
0:04:31 > 0:04:33I like boxes, unusual boxes.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37- Any old boxes?- Yeah, any box. - Why would that be, do you think?
0:04:37 > 0:04:39When I was born and came home from hospital,
0:04:39 > 0:04:44I believe my cot wasn't ready, so I had to live in a drawer for a few weeks.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- So you might buy a box or two today? - Yes, hopefully.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50- Do you think you're be able to win today?- Definitely.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54- Yes.- I think you are like two peas in a pod. Now, here we go, look.
0:04:54 > 0:04:59£300 apiece. Their's your £300. You know the rules. Your experts await, and off you go!
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Very, very good luck.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01Gosh, what fun!
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Let's meet our experts.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07He's always popular. The Reds are advised by Colin Young.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12And I'm a big fan of the Blues expert. It's Anita Manning.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Do you teach fan dancing?
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- Good luck.- Good luck.- Blues!
0:05:21 > 0:05:24This antiques fair is overflowing with goodies,
0:05:24 > 0:05:26so plenty for our teams to choose from.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30So, Chris, Andy, glorious sunshine in Worcestershire.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32What are you going to buy today, then?
0:05:32 > 0:05:36- Something a bit different, maybe. No idea, really.- What sort of thing?
0:05:36 > 0:05:39- Something that catches the eye, something that shines.- Yeah?
0:05:39 > 0:05:42- What sort of thing do you want to go for?- Dunno.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45We're in the middle of the glorious countryside,
0:05:45 > 0:05:49something that catches the eye, sparkles and tickles your fancy, so to speak.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51That's an interesting tactic!
0:05:51 > 0:05:54If it sparkles, buy it! Colin, you've got your hands full, mate.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58At least Jenny and Karen are using their heads, and not being swayed by emotion.
0:05:58 > 0:06:03- Oops, spoke too soon!- OK, girls, what are we looking for today?
0:06:03 > 0:06:08Bit of silver, and a box. I quite like the look of that.
0:06:08 > 0:06:13- That's a big box!- Very big box. How old do you think it is?
0:06:13 > 0:06:19It's probably not terribly old, or it's been redone or something.
0:06:19 > 0:06:25- What do you think?- Tell me why you wanted a box.- I just like boxes.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Mum's always liked boxes, little trinket boxes and just...
0:06:28 > 0:06:32they're conventional to put things in and I think this would be ideal in somebody's home.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35I could see this being in my home,
0:06:35 > 0:06:37at the end of the bed to put your linen in.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40I think it's a very good piece.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44I like boxes as well because you can always fill them full of junk!
0:06:44 > 0:06:50- And this is a functional one. Let's look at the wee drawers down here. - Yes.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57So, quite a handy piece of furniture.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00It's based on the old type of trunk,
0:07:00 > 0:07:03which was a Saratoga trunk, which would have been a tin one
0:07:03 > 0:07:07with an arched top, and possibly metal banding.
0:07:07 > 0:07:13- This type of thing, it's a modern item.- Do you think it would sell?
0:07:13 > 0:07:18I think it would sell. If it was an older one, it would be better.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22It is a reproduction, we know that. But we do like boxes.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25The girls really like it.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29Especially the mum. The mum really likes it.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33But we noticed that there's a buckle missing on the front.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35What's your best price? Would you take 30?
0:07:35 > 0:07:3635.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Can you meet us halfway? £32.50, please?
0:07:39 > 0:07:44- 32, then.- Oh, brilliant. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45Thank you very much.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Now watch out, the Reds have spotted something shiny!
0:07:49 > 0:07:53I hope Colin can persuade them that all that glistens is not gold,
0:07:53 > 0:07:56and that certainly ain't gold.
0:07:56 > 0:08:01- It has got a bit of damage on it. What's the price? - I'll do that for 45.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- £45. Would you buy it even with damage?- No.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- You wouldn't?- I don't think so, no. It sparkled nicely.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10But once you looked under the gloss, you're not so happy.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13We've still got virtually an hour to shop.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- It's the first thing you've looked at.- OK. Thank you very much.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21How much is that, then?
0:08:21 > 0:08:22It's got to be 280.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25It's too expensive for us, then.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28It's well worth it, though, because it's plenty of colour
0:08:28 > 0:08:31and in beautiful condition.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33I quite like that and that.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37Let's see whether it's actually going to be within our sort of budget.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41- What sort of money are you looking for?- I'm looking for £180.- 180.
0:08:41 > 0:08:48That is a really good item, and at £180, on the face of it,
0:08:48 > 0:08:51it's an absolute snip at the price.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- That is easily worth... minimum £600-£800.- It's a fake.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57No, it's not a fake. It's absolutely fine.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01The negative is because of the restoration that's happened around the neck,
0:09:01 > 0:09:05for what you're trying to achieve, it's not going to work.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07A good lesson from Colin. Thank you.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11Stick to the quality items in top-notch condition. Thanks.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13What about this little box here?
0:09:13 > 0:09:18- Oh, yeah, you're still on boxes, girls!- Boxes, boxes, boxes.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Now even the boys have caught the box bug.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Travelling suitcase!
0:09:23 > 0:09:26I like that. That's nice. Hello there.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30- It's quirky, it's nice.- Yeah.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33You see so many of these with no interior in them
0:09:33 > 0:09:35and they make £2-£5 sale in, sale out.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38To actually have a fitted interior is an absolute bonus.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42Looks like the lock at some stage has come out.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- Is it something that could be fixed? - Yeah, it is.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50I wouldn't worry too much about it because it's one of those problems that you expect there to be.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55- Is it worth asking the question of price?- Yeah, what are you looking for for this?
0:09:55 > 0:09:59- 30 quid.- 30.- I like it. It gets my seal of approval.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- I reckon we go for it, then. - Do you want to go for it?- Yes.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06- Do you want to negotiate the price? - I'll have a word with the lady.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Can you meet us halfway? 25.
0:10:08 > 0:10:09No, I can't.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12- It's got to be 30 and that's it. - £27.50?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14- No.- £28?- No, 30.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18- Well, we'll take that then for £30. - Thank you very much.- Job done.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22- Pleasure.- Well, that stall holder sure knew how to stand her ground.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Maybe you guys need a lesson in haggling from the Anita and girl team.
0:10:26 > 0:10:3025 minutes gone, and they've finally moved on from boxes to china.
0:10:30 > 0:10:35- Do like that type of colourful item? - Not really.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39- It just took my eye, though. - You like patterns?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43- Quite bold patterns.- Poole always used very good designers.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45These were done in the 1960s and the 1970s.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49You had Poole and Aegean. We've got a mixture there.
0:10:49 > 0:10:50People like that type of thing.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Everything's £10 an item on the table.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55Everything £10 an item on the table?
0:10:55 > 0:10:59I'm thinking that there's lots of things that are nice for £10, really.
0:10:59 > 0:11:05I'd probably buy them in a set, then I'd hang them on the wall together.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09A set is obviously better.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12If we did by them as a set,
0:11:12 > 0:11:17would you be able to do a better price - cos it's £10 each - than £40?
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- I could do them for £30. - What do you think, Anita?
0:11:20 > 0:11:23I love that stuff anyway.
0:11:23 > 0:11:29And I know that it's popular, and you're getting four of them for £30.
0:11:29 > 0:11:35Is there another bit of movement in them because of the wee flaws?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- I'll go 28.- You can't say better than that, can you?
0:11:38 > 0:11:43- We can't say better than that. - I think it's a bargain. Shall we go for it?
0:11:43 > 0:11:48- I want you to like them.- Do you think there's a profit in that? - I think it's a good buy at that.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53You've got a good name, you've got good design,
0:11:53 > 0:11:57and this lady has given us a good price. I think that's good.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59As long as you love them, I think it's a good buy.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Thank you very much.
0:12:02 > 0:12:03Brilliant!
0:12:03 > 0:12:08Look at that, four pieces of colourful '60s Poole pottery for £20.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Jenny is haggle-tastic!
0:12:11 > 0:12:13My goodness, a bare bottom on Bargain Hunt!
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Chris, stop wasting your time looking at things like that!
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Keep moving, lads!
0:12:19 > 0:12:23These are the kind of mahogany long legs you won't get into trouble with.
0:12:23 > 0:12:28- What do you think to that?- That's very smart.- Isn't it!- It's nice.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32Let me tell you about it. Edwardian, period 1900 to 1910.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Mahogany with boxwood stringing.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38The thing that sets this one apart from the mass -
0:12:38 > 0:12:42and believe me, the mass usually make 20 quid -
0:12:42 > 0:12:44is that you've got a double-layer shelf,
0:12:44 > 0:12:48but it's this unusual dogleg arrangement on the legs.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52It's just a very, very different piece. What do you think to it?
0:12:52 > 0:12:56I think anything that catches someone's eye is worth putting in auction,
0:12:56 > 0:12:59cos it's caught someone's eye already.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- If it's different from the rest, it will stand out more.- Are you interested in discussing price?
0:13:03 > 0:13:06What sort of money would that hope to bring?
0:13:06 > 0:13:10The bog-standard version of this, with the straight legs
0:13:10 > 0:13:13and the single shelf, makes £20 to £30.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16This one should make double that.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19As a retail price, that's about the mark,
0:13:19 > 0:13:22but you're buying to make a profit at auction.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26So have a chat with the owner and see if you can strike a deal.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29You've got 80 on that.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32I can do it 55.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Could you come down a little more, maybe 45?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37I can't go 45. 50.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39- 50?- 50 then?
0:13:39 > 0:13:41It's well worth that. I'm good for £50.
0:13:41 > 0:13:46- It's not a lot of money so I'm happy. - Try and negotiate to 48.- 48?
0:13:46 > 0:13:48- Go on then.- OK, brilliant!
0:13:48 > 0:13:54That's the kind of eye-catching item that could just turn out
0:13:54 > 0:13:56to be Bargain Hunt gold.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00Our teams have two items apiece, and while they search high and low,
0:14:00 > 0:14:03I've found an item that's a real grabber.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06So what's this joker, then?
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Would you use it for picking fruit from a tree?
0:14:08 > 0:14:12Actually, you could use it for picking more or less anything.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Because this has got quite a sophisticated arrangement
0:14:16 > 0:14:19in cast brass, at this end.
0:14:19 > 0:14:27Look carefully, there's a serrated edge inside the jaws of this gadget.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Then we've got a long beechwood shaft,
0:14:30 > 0:14:34and buried in the shaft is a bit of wire, and down this end
0:14:34 > 0:14:39the village blacksmith's had a go, and he's constructed a handle.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41So if I squeeze the handle,
0:14:41 > 0:14:45you notice that the jaws at the other end shut.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50Technically, this thing is called a library long-arm,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52because you're in the library,
0:14:52 > 0:14:56and there's an inconvenient small book at the top of the shelf,
0:14:56 > 0:15:00so you pick this up, open up the jaws, and right off that top shelf,
0:15:00 > 0:15:04you grip the volume and bring it down, and - hey presto -
0:15:04 > 0:15:08it saves you getting the ladder out.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10So, library long-arm, technically,
0:15:10 > 0:15:16except that this one, with its beechwood shaft, ain't quite posh enough
0:15:16 > 0:15:19for your standard early-Victorian library.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23The beechwood to me would indicate that this thing
0:15:23 > 0:15:26actually went into a haberdasher's shop.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30It's the sort of thing that if you got a library,
0:15:30 > 0:15:34and you want all the accoutrements that go with the period library,
0:15:34 > 0:15:38you've just got to have one of these things.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39And what's it worth?
0:15:39 > 0:15:43Well, in a fairground you can find it for 50,
0:15:43 > 0:15:48in a specialist English furniture sale, you can sell it for 400.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51That's what you call top-shelf profit.
0:15:51 > 0:15:55Let's stay on top and catch up with the girls.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59- Jewellery?- Jewellery, ladies? - That's nice, the egg.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03And I love that in the little purple box.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05Let's have a wee look at that.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09- Is that expensive?- That is 165.
0:16:09 > 0:16:13I love opals. I think it's pretty, and I think the combination of ruby and opals
0:16:13 > 0:16:15is absolutely lovely here.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17- And it's very fresh. - Has it got age on it?
0:16:17 > 0:16:25Maybe the latter half of the 20th century. Is it tempting you?
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- No.- It's tempting me, but not Mum.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31I just don't think there's much profit in it, really.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34OK. You can always come back.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39I wouldn't discard it.
0:16:39 > 0:16:44And I know that you like it because of the stones and the design.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- So we might have a think.- Thank you.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Well, I can see Anita loves that brooch.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55I hope she's not too disappointed at leaving it behind.
0:16:55 > 0:16:5615 minutes to go,
0:16:56 > 0:16:59and the Reds split up in the hunt for that elusive third item.
0:16:59 > 0:17:04And it looks like Chris has spotted something interesting. And yes, it's shiny.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08- What have you found for us?- I found a nice piece of silver cutlery.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11A nice box set. It's a bit expensive, but it looks classy.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Lead the way, let's have a look.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19Marked at 155. What do I feel we are going to make
0:17:19 > 0:17:21when it comes to the auction?
0:17:21 > 0:17:27Should they make £100? Yes, every day of the week.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29Will they make any more than that?
0:17:29 > 0:17:32That's where the pain's going to be. So you're on that margin.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36If they can knock a good chunk out of it, you stand a chance.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40If it's only going to be margins, then there is no point.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41We can always ask.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45The spoons LOOK good, but you need to get haggling, boys.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49The team are looking at those very fine silver pair.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53But we just have a slight problem with that.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- Is there anything you can do for us that helps us along?- Not a lot.
0:17:57 > 0:18:03- You know the price of silver, anyway.- I do, that's the problem. The margins are going to be tight.
0:18:03 > 0:18:08- 135. That's it.- 135, yeah. We're a bit tight on time now.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12I think if we have a nice word with the lady, about £120?
0:18:12 > 0:18:18- I can't do that.- Can you manage 125? - I would do 125.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Is this a team decision? Are we going to go 125 for that?
0:18:21 > 0:18:24If I don't agree, he's going to beat me up,
0:18:24 > 0:18:26so I think we'll go over them.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Thank you very much. Pleasure.
0:18:28 > 0:18:33That wasn't bad, but just watch the girls at work.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36That's quite a nice wee thing there.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39What is it, if you don't mind me asking?
0:18:39 > 0:18:44- It's for little sweetmeats on your table. - MAN: It's signed WMF underneath.
0:18:44 > 0:18:49- OK. Which is a mark of quality. What sort of price is on that?- 38.
0:18:49 > 0:18:55- Is that your best price on that? - Could you do 20?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57I could do 30.
0:18:57 > 0:18:5925? >
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Go on then.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05- What do you think, at 25? - I think that's a nice thing.
0:19:05 > 0:19:09MAN: There's no damage. The little pots are really nice.
0:19:09 > 0:19:15- Is it silver?- It's not silver. - No, it's plated.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Tell me what you think about it.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19I'd have liked it if it was silver.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24- Well, you wouldn't be getting it for £25!- what do you think it'll go for in auction?
0:19:24 > 0:19:27I'd say £25 to £40.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31But in an auction, you don't know. You don't know.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Is just on the day, what people want.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37It's understated, but it has a classic elegance.
0:19:39 > 0:19:43- Want to go for it? - Could you go 22 on it?
0:19:43 > 0:19:45I'll give you 20 to take it, shall I?!
0:19:45 > 0:19:47THEY LAUGH
0:19:47 > 0:19:51- Could you do 22 on it?- Yeah, go on then.- You're a darling!
0:19:51 > 0:19:56- It's a deal then. - Thank you very much.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59I wish we had slow motion, to see that again!
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Squeezing that extra £3 off could make all the difference.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Well done, girls.
0:20:06 > 0:20:11There's BARELY any time left. In fact, time's up.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought, eh, Ted?
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Andy and Chris
0:20:17 > 0:20:21hope the travelling wardrobe will be a DRAWER at the auction.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22Who writes this stuff?! £30 paid.
0:20:22 > 0:20:28They laid out £40 for the Edwardian mahogany table.
0:20:29 > 0:20:34And the shiny pair of silver serving spoons were priced at £125.
0:20:35 > 0:20:40- Which is your favourite piece? - Probably the suitcase, to be honest.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44- The suitcase. Do you agree with that?- I like the table.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Is that going to bring the biggest profit?- I hope so.
0:20:46 > 0:20:52- What did you spend all round?- £203. - So who's got the £97?- I've got it.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Thank you very much. There's your £97.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59Colin will be looking forward to going out to buy your bonus buy.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Good luck, good luck, good luck, good luck.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Let's go and check out what the Blue team bought.
0:21:05 > 0:21:10Our Blues, Karen and Jenny, haggled hard on all their items.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13They paid £32 for the wooden trunk.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17They did a deal on the four pieces of Poole pottery. £28 paid.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24And they negotiated well down to £22 for that WMF silver-plated dish.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28So, which is your favourite piece?
0:21:28 > 0:21:33- My favourite piece was the Poole dishes.- The Poole dishes.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36- Do you agree?- No, the trunk.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41- And is that going to bring the biggest profit?- Probably the dishes.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44You agree with your daughter there. Very sensible.
0:21:44 > 0:21:53- How much did you spend?- £82. - £82. And I would like £218, please. 218, just like that.- There you go.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56- Well, Anita, a massive fortune for you.- Lovely, lovely.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Any ideas what you're going to spend it on?
0:21:59 > 0:22:03- Oh, something beautiful and expensive.- Yes!- Good. I like that.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07Philip will like it too. Anyway, good luck, girls, good luck, Anita.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Meanwhile, we're heading off to Castle Howard -
0:22:09 > 0:22:12one of the most beautiful properties in Britain.
0:22:17 > 0:22:22Castle Howard in North Yorkshire boasts many beautiful works of art.
0:22:22 > 0:22:27But one member of the dynasty, George Howard, the ninth Earl of Carlisle,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30was a fine and accomplished artist in his own right.
0:22:30 > 0:22:35And his formal portrait in the house even shows him painting.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41Situated just off one of Castle Howard's grand staterooms
0:22:41 > 0:22:47is a temporary exhibition space that's been set up at this present time
0:22:47 > 0:22:51with an exhibition of George Howard's works.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Here we've got a selection of sketches that he's done of friends
0:22:55 > 0:23:00and acquaintances, Ruskin, Burne-Jones, Legros,
0:23:00 > 0:23:06and his good friend William Morris with his characteristic woolly hairdo.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11But he is far less well-known than them.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13That's because he was an aristocrat,
0:23:13 > 0:23:19there was no economic necessity for him to exhibit and sell his works.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23He simply painted because he loved painting.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29You can see a number of George Howard's works in this exhibition,
0:23:29 > 0:23:36including the oil on canvas of the Sacred Lake at Karnak in Egypt,
0:23:36 > 0:23:40which was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1888.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43But there's another side to George Howard's talent.
0:23:45 > 0:23:50This, rather tatty scrap book, contains examples of personal artistry
0:23:50 > 0:23:54adorning a series of envelopes he sent to his beloved son Kit.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Towards the end of the 19th century,
0:23:57 > 0:24:03there was a Victorian fashion for decorating envelopes,
0:24:03 > 0:24:09and what we've got glued into the interior of the album are a succession sent
0:24:09 > 0:24:16to Kit Howard by his dad at variety of addresses throughout the UK.
0:24:16 > 0:24:23In this one, we've got an envelope addressed to Kit at St Leonards-on-Sea in Sussex.
0:24:23 > 0:24:29Looking suitably seaside-ish with a bell tent pitched on the sands
0:24:29 > 0:24:32with a little boy emerging from inside.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36And the stamp, the Victorian Penny Red,
0:24:36 > 0:24:40has been inserted into the picture deliberately by George Howard
0:24:40 > 0:24:44so that it's both decorative and a part of the picture.
0:24:44 > 0:24:51I think this one's my favourite though and it shows St George slaying the dragon,
0:24:51 > 0:24:55just the sort of thing that a seven-year-old would enjoy.
0:24:55 > 0:25:02But if you look at St George himself, he's wearing a bowler hat and bears a passing resemblance
0:25:02 > 0:25:07to his father, George Howard, his hero no doubt.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11These intimate drawings are proof that George Howard's art
0:25:11 > 0:25:16was motivated by love rather than a desire for fame or fortune.
0:25:16 > 0:25:17The question today is
0:25:17 > 0:25:22whether our teams will make their fortune over at the auction.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24This is where we find out.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Remember our Reds knew little about antiques but bought items
0:25:27 > 0:25:32that caught their eye, while the Blues haggled hard for everything.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36So which tactic will win out in Philip Serrell Sale Room? Let's ask him.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38- Phil, how are you?- I'm good. Good to see you, Tim.
0:25:38 > 0:25:43- Isn't it lovely to do the shopping down the road and then pop here. - It's handy, isn't it?
0:25:43 > 0:25:45We've got a complicated group from Andy and Chris.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49They start off with the travelling wardrobe, do you like that?
0:25:49 > 0:25:51I think it's one of those things that it's great fun,
0:25:51 > 0:25:55- great to talk about, I just don't know what you'd do with it.- No.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58- And for me, it's like £10 or £15. - It's a bit of a lump, isn't it. £30 they paid,
0:25:58 > 0:26:01so there may be a small loss there.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06The Edwardian mahogany centre table, this three-tier job here.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09How's Edwardian furniture going, do you find, at the moment?
0:26:09 > 0:26:15Well, it's not flying out, but I just think that, as a centre table,
0:26:15 > 0:26:20- is a cheap piece of furniture at £40 to £60. I think it'll be all right. - Well, our lot paid £48.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22- I think they're all right. - They should be fine.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24I think they're all right with that.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28Now, the lovely Britannia standard serving spoons
0:26:28 > 0:26:31that I swear have never been out of this case.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33No. Fantastic quality.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37We put £80 - £120 on those and the price of silver just keeps going up and up,
0:26:37 > 0:26:39I think they should be all right.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Well, £125 was paid, but I'd be disappointed
0:26:41 > 0:26:44if they didn't make 130 or 140 quite honestly.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Yeah, you would.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48On that basis, we've got one or two small dark holes with this,
0:26:48 > 0:26:52they may or may not need the bonus buy, but let's have a look at it anyway.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Well, chaps, you spent £203.
0:26:56 > 0:27:01£97 went to the maestro Colin, what did he spend it on? Colin.
0:27:01 > 0:27:06- Voila.- Oh wow.- What do you think to that?- Very retro.- Absolute retro.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09- So you like it? - It's different, yeah.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Well, it's a design, what's known as the Tulip Chair,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15which is a real design icon from the '50s.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18It was designed by Saarinen for Knoll of New York.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23And it's copied right up until this day, you can still buy versions to this very day.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27This is a vintage example, and we do actually have four of them.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32- All the same?- All the same. This is actually the one in the worst condition.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- What do you think they were? - 50 quid?- 50 quid, OK. What do you think?- £20 each.- £20 each?
0:27:36 > 0:27:42Well, that's good then because the figure that was paid was £67 for a set of four.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44- There's always a negative, isn't there?- Go on.- OK.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48The upholstery on the seat potentially doesn't comply
0:27:48 > 0:27:51with the 1988 Fire And Furnishing Regulations Act.
0:27:51 > 0:27:57But there are exemptions for that for items which are an antique or collectable nature.
0:27:57 > 0:28:02And there are also exemptions for items that are going to be used in an office environment.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04- So no problems really.- No problems.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08But we've got four of these jokers, £67, we haven't asked him
0:28:08 > 0:28:13how much the four might make with the wind up their tail today, here in Malvern.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16The last set of four I sold...
0:28:16 > 0:28:19with a table admittedly, made £210.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23- So, take the table out, I hope we might make the £100.- OK.- Sounds OK.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26- I think you're interested lads, aren't you?- I quite like them.- Yeah.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30The more Colin keeps dribbling on about them, the better they seem.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33Let's find out what Philip Serrell, who's renowned for his love
0:28:33 > 0:28:37of mint 20th century objects, is going to make of these four chairs.
0:28:39 > 0:28:43And now for something completely different, a set of four of these jokers.
0:28:43 > 0:28:46The cushions that were on them, they don't conform to fire regs,
0:28:46 > 0:28:49anything manufactured after 1950 for the domestic environment
0:28:49 > 0:28:52has to have a little label on it saying it conforms to the regs.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55Those don't, so we've taken them off for the sale.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58They're still going to make £50-£70, something like that,
0:28:58 > 0:29:00because they're quite trendy.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03- But I'm not sure I can see it, really.- I mean, I don't know, Phil.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05£67, Colin paid.
0:29:05 > 0:29:09It depends on whether the team go with them or not - that's the exciting thing.
0:29:09 > 0:29:13- Absolutely.- Anyway, that's it for the Reds, now for the Blues.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16They're gone with the dome-topped trunk.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19- That left me a bit cold, really. Because it's no age.- No.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23And I suppose if you want a chunk like that, fine.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25I mean, I just see that at £15 to £20 pounds worth.
0:29:25 > 0:29:29£32 they paid, so that's a bit of a hole, but nothing like the hole
0:29:29 > 0:29:32that might open up underneath these Poole Pottery saucers.
0:29:32 > 0:29:39- Well, we put £20 - £30 on them. It's, what, 5 quid each? - I know. £28 they paid.
0:29:39 > 0:29:43I mean, they are Delphis range, there are collectors of them. Are you connected up with the internet?
0:29:43 > 0:29:47We've got live bidding so it should do well, fingers crossed.
0:29:47 > 0:29:53- And that'll help also with the bit of WMF.- Yeah. That's quite sweet.
0:29:53 > 0:29:57- We put £20 to £30 on that. I don't know what they paid for it. - £22. So they paid no money.- No.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00I mean, they paid the right price really. Anyway, on that happy note,
0:30:00 > 0:30:02we'll find out about the bonus buy.
0:30:04 > 0:30:09Jenny and Karen, the left-over lolly moment. You only spent £82.
0:30:09 > 0:30:15- Yes, we did.- And £218 went to the legend Anita Manning.
0:30:15 > 0:30:17Anita, did you blow the lot?
0:30:17 > 0:30:23Well, I bought something that I think the girls will absolutely love.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25THEY GASP
0:30:25 > 0:30:29Oh, my God, it's the brooch!
0:30:29 > 0:30:32They girls, we looked at this and they fell in love with it
0:30:32 > 0:30:37and I thought, "I'm just going to go for it because I know that they loved it to bits."
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- We don't want to sell it. - Can we not take it home?!
0:30:40 > 0:30:44It's made of nine carat gold. It's not an old item
0:30:44 > 0:30:46but it's an old design.
0:30:46 > 0:30:51And we have these rubies and quite nice fiery opals.
0:30:51 > 0:30:53- Are you happy, girls?- Very happy.
0:30:53 > 0:30:58- How much did you pay for it? - Now, I managed to get it to £100.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02- Yes! Get in.- How much do you think it's going to make?
0:31:02 > 0:31:07- Well, it should do over £100. - Yeah, it's fantastic that.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11What is it in particular that you like about that brooch, then?
0:31:11 > 0:31:14To be very honest, it reminds me of my great-gran,
0:31:14 > 0:31:17and I think it was something that my great-gran,
0:31:17 > 0:31:22with her being a lady of elegance, would've worn on a scarf or on a little coat.
0:31:22 > 0:31:27And it just really reminds me of my great-gran, to be honest, so... We don't want to sell it!
0:31:27 > 0:31:31- I'm afraid you're not allowed to buy it, either!- I know!
0:31:31 > 0:31:34- But I'm glad I've made you happy. - You've made us very happy, thank you.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37You'll make them even happier if you make a profit, Anita.
0:31:37 > 0:31:42Let's see, for the audience at home, what Philip Serrell makes of Anita's brooch.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48Now, a little opal-encrusted brooch.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51- How do you rate that? - I quite like that.
0:31:51 > 0:31:57To me, it's around £100. I think it's £80-120 estimate, we'd put on it. On a good day,
0:31:57 > 0:32:00it might go and do 120, 140.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04- It's a cheap piece of jewellery for someone.- Certainly is. £100, Anita paid.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06- I think she'll be all right. - I do too.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18210, 220, 230... Thank you.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- Andrew, Christopher, how are you feeling?- Very good.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25- Little bit curious.- Curious?- Yeah. - How do you feel curious?
0:32:25 > 0:32:29Well, curious, apprehensive. Just curious what's going on today.
0:32:29 > 0:32:34Well, the travelling wardrobe, that funny old trunk. P Serrell did not like that.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38He put £10-15 on it. You paid 30, so he's not too happy with you.
0:32:38 > 0:32:46- Oh, well.- The Edwardian centre table, he really rates. Paid 48, he's put 40-60, should make a bit more.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50The Britannia standard silver spoons are gorgeous.
0:32:50 > 0:32:55You paid £125. He's only put 80-120 on them, but he rates them.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58I think his estimate is low.
0:32:58 > 0:32:59If the worst comes to the worst,
0:32:59 > 0:33:05you've got your plastic chairs to fall back on, which is always nice.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09First up, then, is the travelling wardrobe and here it comes.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12Lot number 375, travelling wardrobe. Who's got a tenner, chaps?
0:33:12 > 0:33:16Now, these are rare things.
0:33:16 > 0:33:1810, I'm bid. At 10 bid, at 10.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20£10, £10, £10.
0:33:20 > 0:33:22At £10, I'm only bid 12 on the net bid at 12.
0:33:22 > 0:33:2712 bid, 15, 15. At 15, 18, 20 on the net bid, 20.
0:33:27 > 0:33:3120 bid. 20 in the room, at 20, 20 bid.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33At 5 on the net, 25.
0:33:33 > 0:33:3530, now, 30 bid.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38At £30, then... 35, 40, 40 bid.
0:33:38 > 0:33:40At £40.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43I told you, I said it was the one to go for.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46Back to the room and done at 40...and done.
0:33:46 > 0:33:49How brilliant is that! You got a profit of £10.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52Lot 376 is the little Edwardian mahogany centre table.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54I think this is a really pretty thing.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57Will you bid me £50 or £60 to start?
0:33:57 > 0:33:59Was that 50 or 60 or all of them, sir?
0:33:59 > 0:34:03- 50.- That'll do. 50, I'm bid. At 50...60.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06- 70.- Look at the profit you're in!
0:34:06 > 0:34:10At 70... 80, 90.
0:34:10 > 0:34:12- Doubled your money.- 110.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15120, 130.
0:34:15 > 0:34:19It's the shape that makes the world of difference.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23170, 180...190.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25- Amazing.- Amazing!
0:34:25 > 0:34:27210. 220.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Dear, oh, dear, oh, dear!
0:34:29 > 0:34:33230, 240.
0:34:33 > 0:34:38This is the brown furniture market that everybody talks about.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42At £240, I'll sell, at 240 and done. And your number, please?
0:34:42 > 0:34:47£192 profit!
0:34:47 > 0:34:49- Amazing!- Look out, lads!
0:34:49 > 0:34:52The silver spoons, absolutely stunning quality.
0:34:52 > 0:34:5490, I'm bid. At 90, 90 bid.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57At £90 for the spoons. Any more?
0:34:57 > 0:34:58- At £90.- A bit more.
0:34:58 > 0:35:015 anywhere? At £90, there's the bid.
0:35:01 > 0:35:05At £90, and I sell, then, at £90 and done. Thank you.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08So, that's £167 profit,
0:35:08 > 0:35:10which is very respectable.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13Disappointing about the spoons,
0:35:13 > 0:35:15but congratulate Colin while the going's good.
0:35:15 > 0:35:19- What are you going to do about the chairs?- Play it safe?
0:35:19 > 0:35:23- We're pretty good on profit. - We can only lose £67 tops. We'll still walk away £100 up.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26- What do you think, Colin? - He can't say.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28- Can't he?- His lips are sealed.
0:35:28 > 0:35:32- What do you think, then? - I can't say, my lips are sealed. The decision is yours.
0:35:32 > 0:35:37- Will you park £167 of profit...? - We can't lose that much.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40Don't let Gamblor get the better of you!
0:35:40 > 0:35:44- Are you going to park it?- I think so.- Are you going to go with it?
0:35:44 > 0:35:47- I want to.- Go on.
0:35:47 > 0:35:49- What are you going to do? - We'll go for it.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52They're going with the bonus. We'll see it sold anyway.
0:35:52 > 0:35:57Lot number 381 is the four contemporary chairs. There you are.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Bid me £50 to start, someone.
0:35:59 > 0:36:0350. Give me £40.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06Bid me 30, the price of one of them.
0:36:06 > 0:36:10- Well...- 20! We cannot go on till we've sold these.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15It's going to be a long old night. 20!
0:36:15 > 0:36:20Who's got £20? Don't all look at your shoes.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23- 10, someone!- Come on!
0:36:23 > 0:36:27- 5?!- Come on!- Told you you shouldn't have gone with them(!)
0:36:27 > 0:36:29Will someone please put their hand up at a fiver?
0:36:29 > 0:36:315, I'm bid.
0:36:31 > 0:36:34At £5 only, at 5, 5 bid.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36£5. Is there any more?
0:36:36 > 0:36:38Malvern is not ready for these!
0:36:38 > 0:36:43At £5, there's the bid and I sell, then, at £5 and done.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46That is minus £62.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Disaster on those! I can't believe it, but there we go.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53It's happened. Don't tell the Blues a thing.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56All will be revealed in a moment.
0:36:58 > 0:37:01'So, Colin's bonus buy pushes our Reds
0:37:01 > 0:37:05'back to a £105 total profit. Now for the Blues.'
0:37:11 > 0:37:15- Now, Jenny, Karen... How are you feelings, girls?- Very nervous.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18- Very nervous! Do you know how the Reds got on?- No.- We have no idea.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Best not to know. Leather dome-topped trunk.
0:37:20 > 0:37:22£32 paid.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25- 15-20 is Philip's estimate.- Oh.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27Could be a bit sticky, that.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31The four Poole Pottery Delphis little dishes,
0:37:31 > 0:37:3520-30, he's put on those. £28 paid, so that's close enough, isn't it?
0:37:35 > 0:37:39And then the three-section sweetmeat dish, he's put 20-30 on it.
0:37:39 > 0:37:41I think that's pretty mean.
0:37:41 > 0:37:46I mean, somewhere else, on another day, I can see that at £60-90.
0:37:46 > 0:37:52- It's a lovely, lovely, lovely thing. - And perfect, with the glass. Quite an unusual object.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55- Then the brooch to fall back on. - Yes.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57- So, don't be nervous.- Right, OK.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00First up is the trunk and here it comes.
0:38:00 > 0:38:04Lot number 396, well,
0:38:04 > 0:38:07I never cease to be amazed, but I have two commission bids.
0:38:07 > 0:38:12There we go, two commission bids. I start off at £25 bid, 35 and 40.
0:38:12 > 0:38:1340 bid with me.
0:38:13 > 0:38:16- Yes!- At £40, I won't be so rude next time.
0:38:16 > 0:38:20£45 on the net bid. At £45. Is there any more at all?
0:38:20 > 0:38:23Where? 50, 50 bid.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25At 50, £50 only. 5, on the net bid.
0:38:25 > 0:38:29At 55, one more? 60, 60 bid.
0:38:29 > 0:38:315, 65, 70, 70 bid.
0:38:31 > 0:38:35- At £70, in the room... - This is wicked, isn't it?
0:38:35 > 0:38:37At £70 and done, thank you.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39- That is plus 38, guys.- Well done!
0:38:39 > 0:38:42- That was your choice, excellent! - You're a clever chicken!
0:38:42 > 0:38:46Four little bits of Poole, start me off. What are they worth?
0:38:46 > 0:38:47A tenner each, £40.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49Give me 20 for the four.
0:38:49 > 0:38:5120, £10 for the four, quickly.
0:38:51 > 0:38:5710, I'm bid. 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, lady's bid seated at 20.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00At £20 seated, is there any more?
0:39:00 > 0:39:02- Come on!- And 5.
0:39:02 > 0:39:0630, 5 on the net bid. 35.
0:39:06 > 0:39:09- At £35...- Bless the internet!
0:39:09 > 0:39:12And done, then, at 35 and done, thank you.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Plus £7, that's two profits.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16Now, what about this WMF joker?
0:39:16 > 0:39:20This rather nice WMF dish, there you are.
0:39:20 > 0:39:22All complete and up together.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24Who's got £40?
0:39:25 > 0:39:29Bid me 20 to start, quickly. Who's got a tenner, someone?
0:39:29 > 0:39:3210, at 10, 12, 15, 18...
0:39:32 > 0:39:3320, 20 bid.
0:39:33 > 0:39:37And 5 now? 25 bid.
0:39:37 > 0:39:42At £25, I sell, at 25 and done, thank you.
0:39:42 > 0:39:44Three profits on the trot,
0:39:44 > 0:39:47that was very, very good. You are very pleased with yourselves.
0:39:47 > 0:39:5038 plus 3 is 41, plus 7 is 48.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52You are plus 48, girls.
0:39:52 > 0:39:56I love it. Now, are you going to risk that by going with the brooch?
0:39:56 > 0:39:57- Yes.- Yes.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00- Are you sure, girls? - Yes, we trust you.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02Yes, we're going.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04- You're going? - We're going for it.
0:40:04 > 0:40:08We're going with the bonus buy and here it comes. Good luck, girls.
0:40:08 > 0:40:10It's a little brooch. This is a lovely thing.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13Bid me £100 to start. Bid me 80.
0:40:13 > 0:40:1480 bid, at 80.
0:40:14 > 0:40:1980 bid. 85, 85, on the net at 85.
0:40:19 > 0:40:23Is there any more at all? At £85 only.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25At £85, and I sell, then.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28At £85 and done, thank you.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30- That is minus £15. - Sorry, girls.
0:40:30 > 0:40:36It's only £15, so that takes you down to plus £33.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39- Woohoo!- You are plus £33 and that is a result, isn't it?
0:40:39 > 0:40:45You paid only £82 in total, right.
0:40:45 > 0:40:49You made £48 profit on £82,
0:40:49 > 0:40:51which just got netted down to 33.
0:40:51 > 0:40:55- Oh, that's my fault.- That's not bad, though, is it? Good stuff.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57- Are you happy? - Yes.- Very happy.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Could be a winning score. All will be revealed in a moment.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03- Don't talk to the others. - We won't, promise.
0:41:11 > 0:41:16We've had some extraordinary results over the years on Bargain Hunt,
0:41:16 > 0:41:19but today has to be one of the strangest.
0:41:19 > 0:41:22- You teams have been chatting?- No. - Very good.
0:41:22 > 0:41:25You both go home with substantial sums of money, lovely.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28It's just a question of the scale of the winnings today.
0:41:28 > 0:41:33And, sadly, the team that's running up are the Blues.
0:41:33 > 0:41:34- Oh, no!- Oh!
0:41:34 > 0:41:38You managed to score a profit of £48,
0:41:38 > 0:41:43which is extraordinary, when you consider that you only spent £82.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45That is a real achievement.
0:41:45 > 0:41:49Sadly, the bonus buy didn't perform quite as it might for you.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53That reduced the overall profit to £33.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56Therefore, the £33 is coming your way.
0:41:56 > 0:41:59- Thank you.- Another couple of little tackers coming.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01Well done, Karen.
0:42:01 > 0:42:08Excellent! And, because you made a profit on the three items you shopped for,
0:42:08 > 0:42:12you can be entered to the venerable and ancient order of the Golden Gavellers.
0:42:12 > 0:42:13Oh, brill!
0:42:13 > 0:42:18Out comes the black pad with your special clips. Well done.
0:42:18 > 0:42:22- Well done.- Thank you.- Anita, something to add to your collection.
0:42:22 > 0:42:28Wear those with pride and congratulations for entering the order of the Golden Gavellers.
0:42:28 > 0:42:29Thank you very much.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32But the team that's going home with serious cash,
0:42:32 > 0:42:34of course, are the Reds.
0:42:34 > 0:42:38I'm very happy to hand over £105.
0:42:38 > 0:42:45It might've been substantially more, had you not gone with the bonus buy, the lovely plastic chairs,
0:42:45 > 0:42:47which managed to lose you £62.
0:42:47 > 0:42:54But, then, Colin Young did so well by making £192 profit on the centre table,
0:42:54 > 0:42:58it has been truly a game of snakes and ladders, hasn't it?
0:42:58 > 0:43:04- You've had a good day, I guess?- Yes. - Fantastic.- We've loved having you. Fantastic performance, Colin.
0:43:04 > 0:43:07Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?
0:43:07 > 0:43:09ALL: Yes!
