0:00:03 > 0:00:11Today we're in bonnie Scotland with two happily married couples just longing to take up the challenge!
0:00:11 > 0:00:14But this isn't no Highland fling!
0:00:14 > 0:00:18Let's go Bargain Hunting! Yeah!
0:00:44 > 0:00:47The Edinburgh Antiques and Collectors' Fair
0:00:47 > 0:00:50is packed full of punters, all looking for a bargain,
0:00:50 > 0:00:53just like our teams, actually.
0:00:53 > 0:00:59Except that our teams only get one hour to find their three items for under £300.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04So the heat is on. Will they keep a cool head?
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Here's a taste as to what's coming up.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10The Reds get expert advice from Nick Hall.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14My job is to advise you and all I can do is shrug my shoulders and say I haven't got a clue!
0:01:14 > 0:01:18While Jeremy Lamond is wary of the superstitious Blues.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22My granny used to always say it should always have its trunk turned up
0:01:22 > 0:01:24to keep the luck inside the house.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26- Did she work in a zoo?- Like a horseshoe?- I don't know, maybe...
0:01:26 > 0:01:31maybe she'd have had too many whiskies when I heard that story.
0:01:38 > 0:01:44- Well, hello, everybody.- Hello, Tim. - How lovely to see you. Now, Anne and Dennis, what a picture.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Anne, how long have you been shacked up with Dennis?
0:01:46 > 0:01:53- Married 35 years this year. Yes. We've known each other for 37 years. - Gosh!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56And do you get a gold medal or something for that? That's quite good going.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59For living with Dennis? Yes!
0:01:59 > 0:02:01- Do you?- Yes.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03When did you first meet, then?
0:02:03 > 0:02:11We met in 1974 in Millport, a small island off the West Coast of Scotland, a beautiful little island.
0:02:11 > 0:02:16- Lovely. And were you on your hols or something?- I was working in the local hotel.- Right.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19And I suppose, they say, the rest is history.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22And Dennis came in, and was it a caramba moment?
0:02:22 > 0:02:26No, I actually wasn't that fond of him to begin with!
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- He was a wee bit showy-offy.- Was he?
0:02:28 > 0:02:33- A bit showy-offy.- Well, he was obviously desperate to get at you, darling.- But, yeah...
0:02:33 > 0:02:35there was an attraction.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38But it all sounds incredibly romantic and rather wonderful.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41So how do you think you're going to get on with the old antiques, Den?
0:02:41 > 0:02:46Well, we've been going to auctions off and on for a few years,
0:02:46 > 0:02:49and we always enjoy looking at the programme and the business.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53We used to collected a particular sort of pottery, Poole pottery.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Oh, yes.- We've got quite a nice collection of that,
0:02:56 > 0:03:01so it's always been an interest of ours, and you always think when you watch it on TV it's going to be easy,
0:03:01 > 0:03:05- but we'll soon find out. - And you think, "We could do better than that."- Absolutely!
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Well, we're going to find out just exactly how good you are in a moment.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13- But, anyway, lovely couple. Good luck.- Thank you.- And now the Blues.
0:03:13 > 0:03:19Another lovely couple, Alison and Colin. So was it love at first sight for you, then, Alison?
0:03:19 > 0:03:24Er...no. There was a wee bit of dubiety over our first encounter, our first date.
0:03:24 > 0:03:30Colin believes that I asked him out, but to my dying day I will always have it the other way about
0:03:30 > 0:03:34that he actually asked myself out, so we still argue...
0:03:34 > 0:03:39- What exactly were the circumstances of this first encounter? - Well, we worked together.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43I was in the office that Colin was in, and he said to me, "What are you doing tonight?"
0:03:43 > 0:03:49I said, "I'm just going home to my mum and dad's." He said, "We can't have that. How about the cinema?"
0:03:49 > 0:03:53But he strongly disputes that, but I'm right.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57- You're right.- And it's now on film! - It's now on film! You can't argue about that, Colin.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00- I've given up on arguing. - You are now scuppered.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03You asked her to go to the movies.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07Now, Colin, it sounds to me as if you haven't had the greatest of luck with your houses, have you?
0:04:07 > 0:04:12- No, no, no.- The fish tank's not been a good number, has it?
0:04:12 > 0:04:17Well, yes, we had the fish tank which was 5 foot, it was an enormous thing.
0:04:17 > 0:04:24- It had sharks in it?- Baby ones. - Well, they were silver sharks, not proper sharks.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- Mo. no!- And then one night we just heard this enormous bang and the rush of water,
0:04:28 > 0:04:33and came out to see this water running over the balustrade into the hall.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38And the next thing I could hear was this flap, flap, flap. All the fish had been flushed out the tank,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41and all over the floor. So it's not been the best of things.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45The house that we're currently in just now got struck by lightning two years ago as well.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49- Oh, yeah?- So I think insurance companies must just blackball us!
0:04:49 > 0:04:55Hopefully you'll have a bit better luck on Bargain Hunt. Now, what are your tactics, then?
0:04:55 > 0:05:00- Well, we're not collecting anything. We don't have any antiques knowledge. - Complete opposites, aren't we?
0:05:00 > 0:05:04So we'll be relying heavily on the advice of our expert.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- Do you know anything about antiques at all?- Well, I think I do when I watch your programme.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13- I sit and I enjoy passing comment on everybody else's... - Armchair expert.
0:05:13 > 0:05:18But the truth of the matter is you don't collect and you don't really know a lot about antiques?
0:05:18 > 0:05:22- We need a good expert to guide us. - This is going to be very interesting.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26We've got the Reds who know about Poole pottery and do collect a lot,
0:05:26 > 0:05:30and we've got the Blues who don't collect so much, just have a series of wrecked houses.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32- That's not collecting!- Only joking.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35That's really good. Anyway, this is going to be fun.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39- Now, the money moment. Here we go. There's £300 apiece. - Thank you very much.
0:05:39 > 0:05:44You know the rules, your experts await and off you go! And very, very good luck.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Gosh, this is going to be fun!
0:05:46 > 0:05:51Time to start the clock. Let shopping commence.
0:05:51 > 0:05:57- We're really wanting to follow your lead. We're a bit of a blank canvas. - So no pressure on me.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01No, no pressure at all. And you've to keep Colin away from records.
0:06:01 > 0:06:06We never agree, and my tactics are to do what I'm told and just go with Anne's impulses.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- I'll have to referee between you. - I think you probably will.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11I do love a husband-and-wife team.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15What a lovely array of boxes you've got!
0:06:15 > 0:06:19- Oh...anything in them?- That's a Rajee box.- That's a Rajee box.
0:06:19 > 0:06:24Now, the thing that caught my eye about this and yours as well, I'm sure,
0:06:24 > 0:06:26- is this wonderful inlay.- Absolutely.
0:06:26 > 0:06:31- Nice bit of mother-of-pearl in the top there. Classic Victorian. - See what it's like inside.
0:06:31 > 0:06:36What's inside for the Victorian person on their travels?
0:06:36 > 0:06:39- Laptop.- Yes, a Victorian laptop.
0:06:39 > 0:06:44You would sit, write your letter on there, keep your stationery underneath here.
0:06:44 > 0:06:49That would lift up, keep your paper in there. Mind your fingers. Inkwell in there...
0:06:49 > 0:06:54- Should there be an inkwell in there? - There would have been, but they so often get lost.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- I've noticed a difference here.- Yes, it's had some work done round it.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59Do you think that would affect...?
0:06:59 > 0:07:03Yes, if it's in slightly better condition, it would make slightly more money.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07But then, hopefully, that'll be reflected in the price.
0:07:07 > 0:07:12- Do you like it enough to buy it if the price is right?- Yes, I do. - If the price was right, yes.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17- It's marked at £75.- £75.- £75. - Will I ask?- Now...
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- let's have a chat. Hello.- Hello.
0:07:20 > 0:07:25We kind of like this box, but there are one or two bits of damage that concern...
0:07:25 > 0:07:28I'm sure you've seen them. Is there much movement on the price?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- 65.- 50?
0:07:31 > 0:07:36- No, I'm sorry, we can't.- £65 is going to be...- That's stretching it.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39I mean, it's a nice thing. I mean, at £65...
0:07:39 > 0:07:43- It might not make a huge profit, but I think there might be a little. - You think there's something in it?
0:07:43 > 0:07:46- I think there might be. - Well, I would put 60-80 on it.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48- Yeah, I'm tempted. - It's up to you guys, really.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- What does your gut feeling say? - We'll go for it.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56- You're sure? - We're going to go for it?- Yes.- £65.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- I always do what I'm told. - Do you feel that's all right?
0:07:59 > 0:08:05- I suggest shake the hand, give him the money, and we can do some more shopping.- We'll take it.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06- Thank you.- It's a pleasure.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09That was quick, Reds.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12A purchase at the very first stall.
0:08:12 > 0:08:17- What about that funny green elephant?- Is not meant to be unlucky if you have an elephant in the house
0:08:17 > 0:08:22- with its trunk down? - Never heard that one.- I don't know if that's my granny's old myth.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26My granny used to always say it should always have its trunk turned up
0:08:26 > 0:08:28to keep the luck inside the house.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Did she work in a zoo?- Like a horseshoe?- I don't know, maybe...
0:08:30 > 0:08:35maybe she'd have had too many whiskies when I heard that story.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40But she did always say that, so I couldn't buy that for that reason.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44- Elephants on parade.- We don't want bad luck at this stage, do we?
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Not before we even start!
0:08:47 > 0:08:53You and your granny, a right elephant! There are all sorts of superstitions to do with elephants.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Looks like the Reds have spotted another item. What have you found there?
0:08:57 > 0:09:01- Is it a snuff...? - It will be a snuff mould, yes,
0:09:01 > 0:09:06carved out of a piece of animal horn with silver mounts. Is that OK to open the lid?
0:09:06 > 0:09:07Thank you.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10OK.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14A castor... I didn't think it was. It's obviously for castor sugar.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- Is that right? - Well, I...- That's very unusual.
0:09:17 > 0:09:18Is that just...?
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- Let's have a look and see if there's anything inside... - That gives it away.
0:09:25 > 0:09:31- What do you think this would have been used for? - I'm not entirely sure.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Do you think it might have been a pounce pot for drying ink?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36A pounce pot, yeah.
0:09:36 > 0:09:42- Right.- It's for drying ink in the olden days.- I like that idea.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- How much is it? There's no price on there. - Don't tell me things like that.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48- I think there's a code on there, rather than a price.- Yes.
0:09:48 > 0:09:55- The anticipation! It's a lovely thing.- That's what I'm thinking. - I liked it right away.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- 75?- 75.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59£75.
0:09:59 > 0:10:04- Oh!- Now, that doesn't sound too bad to me at 75. - Yeah, I'm quite interested in that.
0:10:04 > 0:10:09- Would there be any room for manoeuvre on that? - It's in the book at 125.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11That's a big reduction.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14It's a nice thing.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16- It is. That's why...- Yeah. - It's unusual.
0:10:16 > 0:10:22I think you've got a good chance of two collectors thinking, "I really want that!" Let's have a go.
0:10:22 > 0:10:26- Let's have a go. Come on, let's go! - be bold!- My goodness.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28- 75?- Let's do it. - We're going to take that.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30- OK.- Thank you.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Thank you.- Give me your hand.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Cheers. Thank you very much.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39So that's two down for the Reds.
0:10:39 > 0:10:45- Two items bought in what? Barely 20 minutes.- 20 minutes.- Really? Well, we'll just take our time now, then.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- This is the A-Team of shopping, you know!- Good.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51Meanwhile sounds like the Blues have found something interesting.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54TOOT! Oh!
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- How much is that going to be? - I could put that on my bike. That's a cracker.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01That is a nice car horn, cos it's got the grille on it still.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- Is that like a Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car horn?- And it's got its rubber, but it's got the grille.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09- If you think if it's on a car and it's going at speed...- The flies.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13You don't want the flies going in. So we know it's a car horn and...
0:11:13 > 0:11:15- TOOT! - It still works.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Is that the original rubber bell for it?
0:11:18 > 0:11:22Well, it could well have been replaced, but it's a quirky old thing, isn't it?
0:11:22 > 0:11:24A few dinks on it, but that's a good sign.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26You'd expect that.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Do you think it would have a good resale if we got it for a decent price?
0:11:29 > 0:11:33Do you think somebody would actually go ahead and buy it?
0:11:33 > 0:11:38Yeah, if the right buyers were in, it would, but it all depends on the price.
0:11:38 > 0:11:43- Why don't you go and see if you can find the stallholder and see what's the best price you can get?- OK.
0:11:43 > 0:11:49- I'll give it a shot. Thank you. - Going to be interesting to see what he gets that one for.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Now, it seems Nick is in a reflective mood.
0:11:51 > 0:11:58I think the Blues might be feeling blue, because we're streaks ahead, I'm sure, at this stage.
0:11:58 > 0:12:03So I wish them all the luck in the world... Well, just a little bit, not too much maybe!
0:12:03 > 0:12:06I wouldn't break out the champagne just yet, Nick!
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Found her.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10She's saying it's £60.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12- Very high.- It is.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15She came down to 40 and then went down to 35.
0:12:15 > 0:12:20- It's got a 3 in front of it, so it's worth a punt.- Do you think so?
0:12:20 > 0:12:26If you get a car buff in, or two car buffs, which is what you want, then I think it will exceed that.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28It's on the edge, but it's a quirky thing and we like it.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- It's worth it for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!- Do you like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?- I do!
0:12:32 > 0:12:34A bit of musical in there.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- It's got to have a bit of you in it. - Well...- It will have, definitely.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40- Go for it.- We'll go for that, then. £35.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:12:40 > 0:12:45- I think you should go for it. - Toot-toot! OK, we'll give it a shot.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48Chitty Chitty Bang Bang! We love Blue!
0:12:48 > 0:12:54The expression "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" is Biblical.
0:12:54 > 0:13:00Today, with my item, it's a question of a nut for a nut, methinks.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Looks like a pretty standard straightforward little nut, doesn't it?
0:13:04 > 0:13:07But if I revolve it
0:13:07 > 0:13:13it reveals a really realistically carved human eye! Now...
0:13:13 > 0:13:17if I could cut a nut in half and carve it as well as this,
0:13:17 > 0:13:20I would award myself a prize.
0:13:20 > 0:13:24So having found that extraordinary object,
0:13:24 > 0:13:30just what do you expect to find next on these stands? Well, believe it or not...
0:13:30 > 0:13:32another nut!
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Look at this baby! It's a carved earhole
0:13:36 > 0:13:38with a well-formed lobe
0:13:38 > 0:13:43and every curlicue taking you into the auricular chamber.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Just extraordinary.
0:13:46 > 0:13:53Now, I've seen nuts, all sorts of nuts, but none as well carved as this.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57So what would two nuts like this cost you in the fair?
0:13:57 > 0:14:04The dealer was persuaded to part with them for £15 each. What's that you say?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07£15 apiece!
0:14:09 > 0:14:12I think the nut thinks it's cheap.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18- What's this?- A wee booklet.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22- It's a Watson microscope. - A Watson microscope.
0:14:22 > 0:14:28It's by a good London maker, Watson of London. The thing for collectors with microscopes,
0:14:28 > 0:14:33is what they like most of all is a lacquered brass microscope, rather than black.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36- Right.- Because black really doesn't show it off. However, having said that,
0:14:36 > 0:14:39this is an early... it's a 20th-century one.
0:14:39 > 0:14:45You've got your mahogany case, you've got the microscope, you've got the booklet. £70?
0:14:45 > 0:14:48- Can I have a feel at it?- It's a nice object in its own right.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52- Oh, it is heavy.- Very heavy. - I actually do really like this.
0:14:52 > 0:14:57- I think it's worth a punt.- I do as well. I like the fact it's got its original manual and the box.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- The only thing is there's no plates...- There's no slides, but...
0:15:01 > 0:15:08- Extra lenses.- Oh, my goodness! That's even better.- At the money, a lot of bangs for your buck, really.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- Yeah.- We'll see what the best offer is.- And we'll consider it.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15- I'm a wee bit nervous about doing this, but...- I'll come with you. - Thank you. That's wonderful.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19- Let's go and have a look. - I'll just put this down. - Right, well, good luck.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22OK, thank you, honey! Oh!
0:15:22 > 0:15:26Go on, Alison! Have faith. What we need is a microscopic price.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Now, I haven't seen those Reds for a bit.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34- Just wondered if you had any idea what it was.- Trying to decide what it is. It is interesting.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37What does it say? Does that give us a clue?
0:15:37 > 0:15:40It doesn't actually tell us what it's for. It's got a clamp there.
0:15:40 > 0:15:46- So it's going to sit on to a bench or a table top.- Or a kitchen table, I'm thinking, I don't know why.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50- I don't know what it is.- It's different.- Unusual, just quirky.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54- It's always a gamble when you don't know what you're buying. - When you don't know.- It's not ideal.
0:15:54 > 0:15:59My job is to advise you and all I can do is shrug my shoulders and say I haven't got a clue!
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Probably give that one a miss, then, Reds.
0:16:03 > 0:16:11- Colin...- Yes?- We managed to get it for £65, which is not bad at all.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- Congratulations.- Thank you very much. - Very well done.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- Excellent.- My first time asking for money off.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21- Well, that's very, very good. - I'm quite emotional, actually.
0:16:21 > 0:16:26- Fantastic, number 2 in the bag. - That's us.- Let's go.- Thank you. Good.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30So both teams have two items. It's neck and neck.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33And they now have 15 minutes left.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38- What about that brooch with the... - Turquoise?- ..In it?
0:16:38 > 0:16:41- That's pretty, isn't it? - That is really pretty.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44I wonder what the price is.
0:16:44 > 0:16:51- Hello. Could we ask you how much that brooch with the three turquoises is?- Yes, certainly.
0:16:52 > 0:16:59This one is 18 carat. 195. I could take that down to 145.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03- That's beyond our budget.- Yes. - Yes, it is.- It's a beautiful thing.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05How old do you think that would be?
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- It's certainly Victorian, that one. - Yeah.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11- What's the best it could be?- 145.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14I'm tempted by that, Nick.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19- No?- Well, at the end of the day, the decision is yours.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21I'm only here to advise.
0:17:21 > 0:17:26I mean, I know you like it, but it has to make a profit.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29I know, but it's very unusual. I haven't ever really seen anything like that.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Dennis, come on now, what do you think really, hand on heart?
0:17:32 > 0:17:36- Well, I wouldn't wear it.- Well, it's not your colour.- It isn't my colour!
0:17:38 > 0:17:44- I mean, I can see why you like it. - I like the fact that it's old, but it has a very modern look about it.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- That definitely would sit nicely... - That's what you said about Dennis earlier.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51Except for the contemporary bit!
0:17:51 > 0:17:55Yeah, I can see that on a nice black jacket.
0:17:55 > 0:18:00- Yeah. We need to leave something in the pot for the bonus buy.- Yes. - But it is a nice thing.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Would 135 take it?
0:18:02 > 0:18:07- Go on, then.- 135. I think you're in with a good shout. - You think so?- I do.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11- You think there's something in it? - Absolutely, it's unique. - It's a pretty thing.
0:18:11 > 0:18:17Well, guided by Anne and your good self, at 135, I think we'll go for it.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- I think we've got a deal. - Right, thank you.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21- Thank you so much. - All the best with it.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23- I hope you do well. - Thank you.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Well done, Reds, that's all three items bought.
0:18:32 > 0:18:36- We're doing all right, but time is running out a bit.- Yeah.
0:18:36 > 0:18:40So we've got to start making a few decisions and just crystallising what we want to buy.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45- I just feel something slightly more like a frivolous item...- Ornamental.
0:18:45 > 0:18:51It doesn't have to be jewellery or silver, but just something decorative.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55But it does have to be bought within the next ten or so minutes.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59- We're going to have to get our skates on.- Let's get our skates on.
0:18:59 > 0:19:06Certainly are. Time's running out for the Blues. Don't Nick and the Reds just know it?
0:19:06 > 0:19:08How are you getting on, Blues? Are you having a good shop?
0:19:08 > 0:19:12- They haven't bought a thing. - Oh, well.- Bless them!- Oh, dear. - They've not bought a thing.
0:19:14 > 0:19:15Guys...
0:19:15 > 0:19:17I think I've found it.
0:19:17 > 0:19:22- Yeah. It's a little perfume bottle. - Mm-hm.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26- That's very nice, isn't it? - I'll just put that in, and then that's a little funnel
0:19:26 > 0:19:28for you to top it up.
0:19:28 > 0:19:35Well, this is a Continental silver art nouveau chaste perfume bottle.
0:19:35 > 0:19:41And here is a tiny little English-hallmarked trumpet to fill it.
0:19:41 > 0:19:46- So it makes it functional with that? - Yes, I think those two together would be quite attractive.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50- I think that's really quite pretty. - I think the market would enjoy that, yeah.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- If we got the price right.- OK.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- So let's see what it is.- OK now...
0:19:55 > 0:20:01- Can I...?- The price is there. This one's marked up at 75. And this one's 20.
0:20:01 > 0:20:08- So you'd be 95. What do you want to pay?- Oh, not as much as that!- 75?
0:20:08 > 0:20:12That would be fantastic. If you could do that, I'd be very grateful.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- Thank you.- Thank you very much.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17You did great.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21- OK, that's good.- Well done.- We've done it with moments to spare.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Thank you!- Thank you.- Well done. - It's been wonderful.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29I feel like I can relax now.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37Time is officially up.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Cor! Doesn't it fly by?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43The Reds spent £65 on a Victorian writing slope.
0:20:45 > 0:20:50They forked out £75 for a white-metal mounted horn pounce pot.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54And finally for a Victorian turquoise-and-gold brooch
0:20:54 > 0:20:57with inset diamonds, they paid 135.
0:20:59 > 0:21:04- Hello, Tim.- Are you pleased to have finished shopping now, Dennis?
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Yes, there was a little bit of pressure on but I think we did OK.
0:21:07 > 0:21:10- Yes.- I'm hoping so, we'll know in a little while, I guess.
0:21:10 > 0:21:15- Are you relieved now? - Extremely relieved, I am. I was very nervous this morning.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19- But I'm actually now quite excited. - How much did you spend all round?
0:21:19 > 0:21:26- I think we spent £275. - That is a mature amount of money. I'm very proud of you, team!
0:21:26 > 0:21:28- Can I have the £25 of leftover lolly?- You can.
0:21:28 > 0:21:34- Marvellous. How lovely to be giving the boss such a small amount of cash.- Yeah.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38- I've got my work cut out now, haven't I, really! £25. - And we're expecting big things.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Well, then, I shall aim to deliver big things.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44- Thank you.- Good, good. - Well, there's your challenge. Very good luck, team.
0:21:44 > 0:21:48Meanwhile, why don't we remind ourselves what the Blue team bought, eh?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51A brass car horn set them back £35.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57The focused £65 of their budget on this microscope
0:21:57 > 0:21:59with a mahogany case.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02And this Continental art nouveau perfume bottle and funnel
0:22:02 > 0:22:05cost them a fragrant £75.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09- Oh!- That gave you a nasty shock!
0:22:09 > 0:22:13- Approaching from the rear.- Ooh! - You had a good shop? - Did not bad, I think.
0:22:13 > 0:22:18- We did.- So how much did you spend all round?- Er...175.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22175. I'd like £125 of leftover lolly. Have you got it?
0:22:22 > 0:22:27- He's got the money.- Oh, yes. Purse strings.- You're the treasurer. - He doesn't trust me.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31- Lovely. There you go.- Got some change here as well.- Oh?- Oh, yes.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33There's a fiver in loose.
0:22:33 > 0:22:38There you go, Jeremy. Now, you've had a chance for a bit of a bird's eye round.
0:22:38 > 0:22:43- Any inspiration as to what you might go for?- I might go a bit potty, but that's me all over, so...
0:22:43 > 0:22:50- Is that a hint to you guys? - It might be!- It might be! - I think we've driven him potty!
0:22:50 > 0:22:53My experience with potties is it's all down to training.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57Anyway, good luck, you guys! We're heading off to the Borders,
0:22:57 > 0:23:01to Traquair House. Now that's dead special.
0:23:05 > 0:23:11Traquair House near Peebles is said to be the oldest inhabited house in Scotland.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14The origins of the building can be dated back to 1100,
0:23:14 > 0:23:19and it was added to over the centuries and generations.
0:23:19 > 0:23:24Traquair has been owned by the Stewart family since 1491.
0:23:26 > 0:23:31In this attractive dining room, it fairly reeks of two things.
0:23:31 > 0:23:38To me, it reeks of a family who have lived here and are comfortable in their skin,
0:23:38 > 0:23:43because they're not trying to make the dining room look grand.
0:23:43 > 0:23:48It's simply the dining room, the place where the family have eaten over the centuries,
0:23:48 > 0:23:54and the accumulation of objects that are in this room are a natural growth of things that have appeared
0:23:54 > 0:24:01at different times, been hung on the walls, and also been placed about for everyday use.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05That's the first reeking, family tradition.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09The second reeking is the Scottishness of the place.
0:24:09 > 0:24:14If you take a sideboard like that, it could only come from one place,
0:24:14 > 0:24:16and that's Scotland.
0:24:16 > 0:24:22The features, these exaggerated curves, the use of this bead and reel moulding
0:24:22 > 0:24:27is peculiar to Scotland and a particular maker, William Trotter,
0:24:27 > 0:24:30who was a renowned cabinetmaker from Edinburgh,
0:24:30 > 0:24:35and I would date this thing to between 1815 and 1830.
0:24:35 > 0:24:43These curious boxes on the sideboard are also Scottish and made to contain cutlery.
0:24:43 > 0:24:49And what might this quirky little fellow be, sitting on the top, convenient in the dining room?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Well, it's a solid silver bow
0:24:52 > 0:24:56that's connected to two sprung handles.
0:24:56 > 0:25:02The handles are made of ivory which are turned and then stained green.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06Very, very smart. But what might you use it for?
0:25:06 > 0:25:09To clean your tongue after you'd eaten!
0:25:09 > 0:25:13It's a Georgian silver tongue scraper.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16And no! I'm not going to give you a demonstration!
0:25:18 > 0:25:23But perhaps one the greatest treasures in this room is this thing.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25What is it?
0:25:25 > 0:25:30It's a very rare form of angle or signpost barometer.
0:25:30 > 0:25:35A barometer with a glass tube that's filled with mercury in the normal way,
0:25:35 > 0:25:40but that tube rises and goes through a 45-degree kink,
0:25:40 > 0:25:45then it rises a bit more and then it goes 45 degrees in the opposite direction.
0:25:45 > 0:25:52What, in effect, you're doing is compacting the length of the mercury tube,
0:25:52 > 0:25:57but in a decorative way. What's really great about this barometer
0:25:57 > 0:26:00is that it's inscribed with the maker's name.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04a Mr Knie, or "Knee",
0:26:04 > 0:26:09and Balthazar Knie is recorded as an Edinburgh maker,
0:26:09 > 0:26:14and he's even recorded the date of manufacture, "Fecit 1778".
0:26:14 > 0:26:17Of course, the big question today is
0:26:17 > 0:26:24is the pressure going to be rising or falling for our teams over at the auction?
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Well, I'm off.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Uh-oh! Raining again.
0:26:39 > 0:26:43Well, we've popped across Scotland from Edinburgh to Glasgow
0:26:43 > 0:26:47to Great Western Auctions to be with Anita Manning. Anita.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51- Welcome back to Scotland, Tim. - Thank you very much. We're delighted to be here.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55Now, the Tunbridge Ware writing box, how do you rate that?
0:26:55 > 0:26:59Well, I think it's a good little item. It's in fair condition.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03I particularly like this lovely fan-shaped decoration.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06It gives it that exotic feel
0:27:06 > 0:27:10which will appeal to the exotic tastes of the Glasgow buyers.
0:27:10 > 0:27:15- Good. £65 our lot paid. How much do you reckon it'll bring in. - Probably 100-150.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18Really? As much as that. Well, they'll be chuffed with that.
0:27:18 > 0:27:25Next up is this white-metal mounted horn which they say is for pounce,
0:27:25 > 0:27:28and I suppose it is for pounce, but it could easily be for pepper.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Yes. I like this little item,
0:27:30 > 0:27:34and I love the combination of silver and horn.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38- And it's that's sort of combination which is peculiarly Scottish too, isn't it?- Yes, uh-huh.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42- So it may well be Scottish. - I'm hoping that our buyers will like that.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44- How much?- 60-80.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48OK, £75 paid. And the last item is the bar brooch
0:27:48 > 0:27:51- with the turquoise. Do you like that one?- I love jewellery,
0:27:51 > 0:27:53and I love this period of jewellery,
0:27:53 > 0:27:58and I think this is a particularly sweet little brooch,
0:27:58 > 0:28:03with the addition of nine rough-cut diamonds. It's a nice little piece.
0:28:03 > 0:28:07You are marvellous, Anita! Everybody else would call them chips
0:28:07 > 0:28:09but you call them rough-cut diamonds!
0:28:09 > 0:28:14OK, £135 was paid. Will they make a profit, do you think?
0:28:14 > 0:28:19- I've estimated at 100-150.- OK, so they're in the frame?- Not too bad.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23Just in case, let's go and have a look at their bonus buy. And here it comes.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29So, Anne and Dennis, you only left the man £25.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30Nicholas, what did you spend it on?
0:28:30 > 0:28:32£25 on...
0:28:32 > 0:28:34this!
0:28:34 > 0:28:36- Wow! OK.- Right. Interesting.
0:28:36 > 0:28:40- Interesting good or interesting not so good?- Interesting...uh-huh.
0:28:40 > 0:28:46- Is it Carlton Ware?- It's Carlton Ware.- Right.- Rouge Royale. - Rouge Royale. You know your...
0:28:46 > 0:28:47These two are good, aren't they?
0:28:47 > 0:28:51- I almost feel as if I wasn't needed, Tim!- It's very nice.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54- You like it?- Yes, I do.- It's a good pattern as well, the spider's web.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57- It's one of the more sought-after patterns with collectors.- Different.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59It definitely is. I haven't seen that before.
0:28:59 > 0:29:04- And how much of our highly prized £25 did you use?- You mean that huge budget, how much have I blown?
0:29:04 > 0:29:08- The whole lot?- The whole lot. I thought you were going to say that.
0:29:08 > 0:29:14- Yes, it is actually very pretty. I do like it.- Good.- And what do you think we're going to see on it?
0:29:14 > 0:29:18To make a profit, these things traditionally make £30-£40.
0:29:18 > 0:29:19- OK.- Mm-hm. Yeah.
0:29:19 > 0:29:24- A slim margin, but a profit.- Well, we like it, I think.- Yes, I do.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26I don't usually like Rouge Royale, I have to say,
0:29:26 > 0:29:30but I do like that one because I haven't seen that particular pattern before.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34- Well, so long as the punters at the sale like it, we're OK. - That's all that counts.- Absolutely.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37You don't make your decision now, but after the sale of the first three items,
0:29:37 > 0:29:42but for the viewers at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks of Nick's plate.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45There we go, Anita.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47That's not that old, is it?
0:29:47 > 0:29:50Well, this is from the 1930s, Tim.
0:29:50 > 0:29:55- Is it?- Carlton Ware, yes. They started making Rouge Royale in the 1930s,
0:29:55 > 0:30:01- but they made it for a good number of years because it quite simply was so popular.- Mmm.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05It has a luxurious look to it which appeals to buyers.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08And this one is the spider's-web pattern,
0:30:08 > 0:30:14it's particularly nice because we have the little butterfly and the dragonfly.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16So it's quite a nice wee piece.
0:30:16 > 0:30:21- How much do you think it's worth? - 30-50.- OK, £25 paid by that cunning Nick Hall.
0:30:21 > 0:30:26So that's good. That should make a profit on the bonus buy if they go with it. Now...
0:30:26 > 0:30:30that's it for the Reds and now for the Blues.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32First up is this brass car horn.
0:30:32 > 0:30:35The big question with this is, how old is it?
0:30:35 > 0:30:42- Well, it could be 1930s.- I've seen a lot of these, and what kids you
0:30:42 > 0:30:47is this decomposed rubber end on it. You think, "It must be old with a flaky old bit of rubber on the end."
0:30:47 > 0:30:54Not a bit of it. I think they bury that in manure and age it, and I'd be very suspicious anyway.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57- But it has one redeeming feature. - Oh, good!
0:30:58 > 0:31:00- TOOT! - It works! OK.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02We got the message there!
0:31:02 > 0:31:05- How much?- Oh, well, I'm hoping it might go to £30.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09£35 they paid. I think they'll be lucky to make a profit, but with you selling it, Anita,
0:31:09 > 0:31:12quite frankly, anything could happen.
0:31:12 > 0:31:18Next is the student's microscope. My gosh, you get a lot of instrument for your money, don't you?
0:31:18 > 0:31:22Yes, you do. And this one is in perfect condition.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26- So I think it's quite a nice item. - Yes.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30- What's your estimate on it? - My estimate on that is 60-100.
0:31:30 > 0:31:37£65 they paid. Good! And lastly it's this little combo lot of the perfume bottle
0:31:37 > 0:31:42- and the perfume funnel. Quite fun. isn't it?- It's a lovely wee thing.
0:31:42 > 0:31:47I'm not sure that it's terribly old, but it has the look.
0:31:47 > 0:31:53I particularly like the decoration on this one. We've got this lovely wee funnel here too.
0:31:53 > 0:31:59- It's a nice wee thing. Price on it 50-80.- OK, £75 they paid. So they paid the right price.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03It all sits pretty neatly in the middle of the estimates.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06They may not need the bonus buy, but let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:32:07 > 0:32:14Now, Alison and Colin, £125 you gave to Jeremy. What did you spend it on, Jeremy?
0:32:14 > 0:32:18Well, what we have here, Tim, is something that might save our bacon in extremis.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20It's a little Danish sizzler.
0:32:22 > 0:32:28- Ooh!- This is by a chap called Edward Aagaard, and it's a little bronzed jewellery box.
0:32:28 > 0:32:3620th century, and it is cast with the legend of Harald of Denmark, or Bluetooth,
0:32:36 > 0:32:39who unified the Danes. This is his runic stone in the top,
0:32:39 > 0:32:44- and inside a pretty little lined jewellery box.- And that's all the original lining?- Yeah.
0:32:44 > 0:32:49- That looks very nice indeed.- Can I have a look?- Signed at the back. What do you think?
0:32:49 > 0:32:53- I like it.- I do like it as well, especially with the Bluetooth connection.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56- One of those curiosities that makes it modern as well. - The phone's in the bottom.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Is it hands-free?
0:32:59 > 0:33:03- That's lovely.- How much did you spend?- Well, have a guess.
0:33:03 > 0:33:09- Somewhere around about £60. - I thought about 75, 80.- 20!
0:33:09 > 0:33:12- Oh, wow!- That sounds excellent. - Well done!
0:33:12 > 0:33:16- Very pleased with that. - So we might go for that. - How much do you think it would make?
0:33:16 > 0:33:21- I think it's certainly worth more than that. - So do we, obviously!- Double, treble.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23- About your estimate, really. - That's excellent. Fantastic.
0:33:23 > 0:33:28- Thank you very much.- Thank you. - Anyway, you don't pick now, you pick later,
0:33:28 > 0:33:33but let's find out for the audience at home, what the auctioneer thinks about Jeremy's little sizzler.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37There you go, Anita. A little bit of history for you, darling.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39It is indeed.
0:33:39 > 0:33:44It's quite a sweet little box. It is made by Edward Aagaard
0:33:44 > 0:33:48who was a renowned Danish metalworker.
0:33:48 > 0:33:55This little box is showing us legends from King Harald Bluetooth of Denmark.
0:33:55 > 0:34:00And I find that rather interesting. He was the king who converted to Christianity,
0:34:00 > 0:34:08and the images show his conversion. These things are famous images in Denmark.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10So it's a little bit of Danish history.
0:34:10 > 0:34:14Well, thank you very much for the Danish history lesson!
0:34:14 > 0:34:16I like the fact that he's called Bluetooth!
0:34:16 > 0:34:21- Well, actually Bluetooth is called after King Harald. - It would be, wouldn't it?
0:34:21 > 0:34:25- How much do you think it's going to bring in?- Well, I would say 40-60.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27- Jeremy paid £20, so not a lot. - Oh, good.
0:34:27 > 0:34:32The fact of the matter is it's made of smelter which is the problem in my mind.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36If it was bronze, it would make quite a bit, I think, don't you? More than £100 anyway.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39- It has a bronzed finish.- Yes. - But not bronze.
0:34:39 > 0:34:44Well, it'll be interesting to see how you finish, actually, Anita, on the rostrum in a minute.
0:34:44 > 0:34:45Thank you very much.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55- So how are you feeling, you two? - Nervous.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59- Are you?- Well, just a little bit of anticipation. We'll see how it goes.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Hope to make enough for our holiday.
0:35:01 > 0:35:05- Planning on going far? - If not, Paisley!
0:35:06 > 0:35:12Quite close by. Anyway, first up is going to be your Tunbridge Ware writing box.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36Well, teams, what fun. Have you been chatting to each other at all?

0:41:42 > 0:41:47- Ooh!- Two teams that are going to be going away with cash in their pockets.

0:42:17 > 0:42:23You are also entitled to the ancient and honourable award of the Golden Gavel,
0:42:23 > 0:42:29- because you made a profit on all three of your items.- Wow!- Thank you. - We've run out of Golden Gavels,

0:42:45 > 0:42:47We'd like you to wear it with pride.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50- Did you have a brilliant time? - Wonderful.- Fantastic! - Alison, we loved having you.
0:42:50 > 0:42:52- Colin, look after yourself. - Thank you.
