0:00:02 > 0:00:03Today we're in Oswestry
0:00:03 > 0:00:08which has been voted one of the coolest towns to live in.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10I wonder how cool our teams are going to be today
0:00:10 > 0:00:12when the clock starts ticking?
0:00:12 > 0:00:15Let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:43 > 0:00:46Today, the teams are in for a treat.
0:00:46 > 0:00:50Because in Oswestry we've got stalls packed with literally
0:00:50 > 0:00:51hundreds of objects.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54So there's no need for anyone to get hot under the collar.
0:00:56 > 0:01:01- Don't move away until you find something.- He's bullying me again.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03I'm not bullying you.
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Looks like the gloves are already off in the red camp
0:01:07 > 0:01:10and it's handbags at dawn for the Blues.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15To be fair, in our house you've got worse items than this.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17We're going to have a fight now!
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Our feisty teams will each get £300 and an hour to buy three items,
0:01:23 > 0:01:27which they later sell at auction.
0:01:27 > 0:01:28£20 to start it off at £20.
0:01:28 > 0:01:3020 bid, 25, 30...
0:01:30 > 0:01:34The team with the biggest profit, or the smallest loss, wins.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36So let's go and meet the teams.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41- So, husband and wife team, John and Nicky.- Hello.- Lovely to see you.
0:01:41 > 0:01:47- And Michael and Cathy, the son and mother combo from heaven.- Hello.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50Now, Nicky, how did you two first meet?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52We met when we were seven.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55We got on the same bus to go to swimming lessons,
0:01:55 > 0:01:59but I was a little shy girl on the bus.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01- Then?- Yes, then!
0:02:01 > 0:02:06And he was a boy that was talking to all the other girls except me.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10Then we lost contact and we met again at a friend's birthday party
0:02:10 > 0:02:13in a nightclub and we've been together ever since, for 30 years.
0:02:13 > 0:02:1630 years, that's a good record!
0:02:16 > 0:02:19John, you've had few jobs over the years, tell us about it.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Yes, I started on the building sites at 16.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Then I moved on to British Telecom for 23 years.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26I've been a motorcycle instructor.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Then self-employed as a mobile DJ and karaoke host.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32And now I work for the local constabulary.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35How did you get into the karaoke nights?
0:02:35 > 0:02:38I started singing and was looking at the people doing the hosting
0:02:38 > 0:02:42and I just thought, surely I can do better than this.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44I bought the equipment, done weddings,
0:02:44 > 0:02:47christenings and even did a karaoke wake.
0:02:47 > 0:02:48- Did you?- Yeah.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Do you think you'll make a good team today, Nicky?
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Certainly.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54We are a good team, we mostly agree, don't we?
0:02:54 > 0:02:58- Well, I've got to nod there haven't I?- Yes, you do!
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Just agree and you will be fine.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05- I think you are going to make a good team, good luck.- Thank you.
0:03:05 > 0:03:06Michael and Cathy, welcome.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10Cathy, you are the mother of this lovely boy,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13but also he's your best friend?
0:03:13 > 0:03:14That's right, yes.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18I understand you're turning your interest in the theatre into a profession?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20I am, yes.
0:03:20 > 0:03:26I've just finished a Masters at the Royal Scottish Conservatoire in musical theatre.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28So I'm hoping to follow my dreams.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30May be Bargain Hunt will help you?
0:03:30 > 0:03:33- Possibly, yes. - That would be nice!
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Cathy, you have a passion for Halloween?
0:03:35 > 0:03:38My passion for Halloween is coming to a climax.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Last year we had 100 trick or treaters.
0:03:41 > 0:03:45We put a canopy up outside and we decorated it
0:03:45 > 0:03:48and I've got some mannequins and I dressed them up in costumes.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52Then I put some people in between as well,
0:03:52 > 0:03:55so they don't know what's going to move and what isn't.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57When they come up, all you have to do is move slightly
0:03:57 > 0:04:00- and they run off!- I bet they do. - It's great.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04So, what's scary tactics are you going to take on board today?
0:04:04 > 0:04:08We're going to look for stuff that's useful, quirky,
0:04:08 > 0:04:11not damaged and make a load of money.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14That's a nice little catalogue of wishes.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18I think will come to the money moment now, here's your 300 smackers.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19Thank you very much.
0:04:19 > 0:04:24You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!
0:04:24 > 0:04:27Trick or treat, eh? We'll see!
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Antiques guru, Thomas Plant,
0:04:30 > 0:04:34will help the Reds get to grips with this bargain hunting lark.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37It's showtime for the Blues and their leading man
0:04:37 > 0:04:39is the dashing David Barby.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44This is your show, I'm here to advise you.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48I think we should make a start, come on.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Sounds like a plan, David.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53You've only got an hour to bag the bargains.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57And the Blue team are already getting stuck in.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00That looks interesting.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03That's one word for it, Cathy.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05What caught your eye about that?
0:05:05 > 0:05:09I like the funky little person on the top.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14Yes, it's a very nice early 19th-century teapot.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17And this would have been serving special tea,
0:05:17 > 0:05:22one cup of tea outside or in the ladies boudoir.
0:05:22 > 0:05:28- It is a very handsome teapot. What I like is the glazing.- Yes.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31I love the combination of the brown and green.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Very much like, have you heard of Thomas Wealden?- I haven't, no.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39He went into partnership with Wedgwood and they produced
0:05:39 > 0:05:42early pieces, green and brown, tortoiseshell affect.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44I think it's rather nice.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Just let's have a look at the spout. - It's a bit damaged there.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53I shouldn't worry about that. A little nibbled on the edge.
0:05:53 > 0:05:59- It's been around since probably 1810.- That old?
0:05:59 > 0:06:02I'm a bit damaged and nibbled, so can't blame it.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Nothing a bit of greasepaint couldn't sort out.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08Time to drive a hard bargain.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11You've got 28, which I think is a whacking, great price on it.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15The lowest I could go is 15.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19I think £15 is a reasonable price.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22You wanted something practical, good social history to it.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Shall we go for it?
0:06:24 > 0:06:28- I think so, it's a good price at £15.- Go on then.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31That's your first buy within five seconds.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34That's not bad is it, I don't mess about.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37The Blues make their debut with their canny first buy.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Now, what the Reds up to?
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- You haven't bought anything.- I know. - We are going to have a look.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49Tick tock, tick tock! It looks like Thomas is cracking the whip
0:06:49 > 0:06:50from the start today.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53And it appears to be working, what have you found, Reds?
0:06:58 > 0:07:03I think we're going to have to get Tom for this. Tom? Thomas!
0:07:03 > 0:07:04I'm being called.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07'Come on Thomas, jump to it.'
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- What have you found? - I found a whistle.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14It's Chester, which we collect and it's Charles Horner.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16What do you think about it?
0:07:16 > 0:07:20OK, Charles Horner, Chester, a whistle, you have got your glass out.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- And we're selling local. - How much is it?
0:07:23 > 0:07:30He's got 79 but I've spoken to the dealer and he'll come down to £60.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- I think I might have a chance. - Do you think so?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35I don't know.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36WHISTLE BLOWS
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- It does work.- I think it's quirky. - I like it.
0:07:38 > 0:07:43- You do like it? - Yes.- It's the name, I think.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44What's the date?
0:07:44 > 0:07:47It's rubbed.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Yes, it's rubbed.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52It's unrecognisable.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56It is a bit rubbed, but I can tell you I make it about 1918.
0:07:56 > 0:08:01Really? George V, that's quite nice.
0:08:01 > 0:08:0355 and you've got a deal.
0:08:03 > 0:08:04I'll do it for 58.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- What do you reckon?- If you're lucky you'll get a £2 profit.
0:08:10 > 0:08:17I think you could land yourself in a sticky situation, in my opinion.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21I know it is Charles Horner and it's local and it's probably George V.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- I think we'll take a gamble.- Yes.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26- You want to take a gamble? - We'll go for it.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28- I think we will go for it. - We're going for it, Tom.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32You are doing it are you? Off you go then.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35That is one down, two to go.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38The Reds are going it alone, a risky strategy.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42It's neck and neck with one item apiece.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Come on Blues, it's showtime.
0:08:47 > 0:08:52That's rather nice, that little ladle. What is that little ladle?
0:08:53 > 0:08:55What would you use it for?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57- For heaven's sake!- A tiny ladle.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00- It's for mustard.- Oh yes.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03You wouldn't want much mustard would you?
0:09:04 > 0:09:08The mark is Scottish. Glasgow.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11- Glasgow!- Yes, Glasgow.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12Why did you say Glasgow?
0:09:12 > 0:09:16That's where he did his Masters and his musical theatre.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19I don't believe it. Have a look.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Scottish silver is always sought after,
0:09:21 > 0:09:23just as Irish silver is sought after.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- What did you say the age was?- 1830.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28But it's such an elegant little ladle.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31I would like it to be a little bit cheaper.
0:09:31 > 0:09:37- £25 that's a very good buy. - How old are you, Michael?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40- It's all coming together. - How old are you?- I'm 25.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Studied in Glasgow, it's from Glasgow.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47- I think it's not bad for 25, is it? - Let's go for that.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51It's not like me not to spend loads of money.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Another double-quick deal done.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56It's all coming together for the Blues.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59This fair really has loads of stuff.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03I do like a bit of recycling, don't you?
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Try this on for size.
0:10:07 > 0:10:13Look at that, looks just like a Sopwith Pup coming at you out of the sun.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16Ah! Ah! Ah!
0:10:16 > 0:10:19You like that? Clever isn't it?
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Well it's certainly very cleverly made.
0:10:21 > 0:10:28It looks like a piece of trench art, ie something made in the First World War by the troops themselves,
0:10:28 > 0:10:32using up some left over materials.
0:10:32 > 0:10:33Well it wasn't.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37Because the person that's made this has been extremely cunning
0:10:37 > 0:10:43and has incorporated as the entire fuselage an old spark plug.
0:10:43 > 0:10:51At the front we've got the engine and the propeller I think has been made out of a baked bean tin.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56If we look at the wings, the biplane wings are thin metal
0:10:56 > 0:11:00and I suspect these have been made out of a cola tin.
0:11:00 > 0:11:05So rather than throwing away the cola tin, they have flattened it out and made some wings.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Put two struts on like that.
0:11:08 > 0:11:15Then the back end of the spark plug, on the back of the porcelain piece, three more bits of cola tin
0:11:15 > 0:11:19have been cut up to make the tail fins. Isn't that cute?
0:11:19 > 0:11:24What's a little toy like this worth?
0:11:24 > 0:11:29Well it could be yours here in Oswestry for £4.
0:11:30 > 0:11:35So it's cheap, it's charming and it's green.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37What more could you ask for?
0:11:37 > 0:11:41Well, we could ask the Red camp to hurry up and make their second buy.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45Come on Thomas, time to show your mettle.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50- So I saw this walking by.- OK. - And I know you liked silver.
0:11:50 > 0:11:55This isn't silver, this is silver plate and this is Royal Munster Fusiliers.
0:11:55 > 0:12:00- Oh it's army. - And do you know what it is?
0:12:00 > 0:12:04- I don't know. - Is it top of the like the staff?
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- Like a staff mat or the perfume.- No.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08- Go on.- No idea. Don't know.
0:12:08 > 0:12:13OK mess dinners, after supper you'd have your cigars.
0:12:13 > 0:12:18- And instead of everyone having sort a plastic lighter. - Is it a lighter?
0:12:18 > 0:12:20It's a table light.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23So this would be filled with paraffin and a wick would come up.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26You unscrew this and then you'd light it.
0:12:26 > 0:12:27Does it matter if it's dented?
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Well it does, which is slightly annoying...
0:12:32 > 0:12:34You can say the dents give it dignity.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37But will the dents do for it at auction?
0:12:37 > 0:12:42- It's quite a good thing. - It is on the end.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44It is also the shape of a bomb, a Fusiliers' bomb.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Like the old hand grenade.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51- Well, we're all having a feel! - It's about time I got my hands on something today.
0:12:51 > 0:12:55- Really? Do you feel you've been sort of not allowed to buy anything.- Yeah.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- I think the next items is yours. - The two boys have bullied me!
0:12:58 > 0:13:03- I haven't bullied you! I think that's harsh.- I get blamed for everything.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06I've had a chat and we could get it for 50.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09It's more of a profit than that whistle you've just bought.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13I don't think so, I think that whistle might go for more.
0:13:14 > 0:13:19- Is 50 your very best? - 45 is the best we could do.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22Yeah, we'll go for that then, thank you. Yeah, we'll go for that.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25You've just made that decision, good.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27- Deal?- Deal.- Deal.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31Thank the Lord!
0:13:31 > 0:13:34The Reds are finally getting into their stride.
0:13:34 > 0:13:39Even though it's wet and windy, the show must go on for the Blue team. One more item to go please.
0:13:39 > 0:13:43- I'm getting wet, I don't know about you. Should we go inside? - Indoors sounds a good plan.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48- Ooh, that was quite a chill.- It is.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50I think we should go over there.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54And they have their hearts set on something showbiz.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58- Take a rolling pin.- Start looking out for theatrical, Michael.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Yes, like props and things like that.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06I've got hair!
0:14:06 > 0:14:11There's no time for costume changes, you're running out of time.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16Now that's what we should have something like a swizzle stick.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19What's going on here? This is some concentration.
0:14:19 > 0:14:24- Are you concentrating hard? - Very hard. That's good.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28They want something theatrical, so I'm pleased you've come along.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32You can't buy me, I tell you. Not for money or for love. I'm already taken
0:14:34 > 0:14:40Theatrical memorabilia is a bit thin on the ground today, but David thinks he has the answer.
0:14:40 > 0:14:45- The only reason I saw this is because of make up.- Yeah, like a dressing ring?
0:14:45 > 0:14:48- Yes.- I like it.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54I think it's quite good actually.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56I like it.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59- I like the little shelves here. - They're not the original...
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- handles?- No
0:15:02 > 0:15:06- It has been rehandled.- But they still look nice. It's in keeping.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11- What's the price?- I don't know. - 145.
0:15:13 > 0:15:18This is the same period as, let's think in terms of theatrical terms, of maybe...
0:15:21 > 0:15:25- Oscar Wilde plays, that sort of period.- Cool.
0:15:25 > 0:15:30- I think this is quite nice.- I really like it. I'd have that in my own house I think.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Really?- Yes.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34- Is it mahogany?- Yes.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37You try and buy something like that today in solid wood.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41But can you get it at the right price, team?
0:15:41 > 0:15:47- Right chaps, I've just spoken to the owner. They're prepared to come down to 110 and that is the lowest.- Right.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51What do you see it making at auction?
0:15:51 > 0:15:56Just in terms of the auction house we're going to, it's a very good auction house -
0:15:56 > 0:16:02quite smart, quite posh and it's Nantwich, which is a posh area, lots of big old houses.
0:16:02 > 0:16:08If I had an old house and I had a bathroom that would have a Victorian bath and loo,
0:16:08 > 0:16:12I would love that in that bathroom.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14So that is £110.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19- It's a gamble, but I really like it.- I like it.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22We could always come back to it.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Shall we come back to it? - We've got 15 minutes.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30I really like it, but I think have a quick dash around, see if anything catches our eye
0:16:30 > 0:16:36and is a little bit better price that is going to make a profit, if not then come and get this.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Right I think that's a good decision.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40So will the dressing table get an encore?
0:16:46 > 0:16:49So which way do you want to go, Nicky? Come on, it's all up to you!
0:16:49 > 0:16:50I don't mind.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55- What do you mean?! I've given you an opportunity. - Which is the busiest area?
0:16:55 > 0:16:58- Oh come on, go to your left. - Come on then!
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Honestly I gave you an opportunity there.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04"Oh I don't know! I don't know!"
0:17:04 > 0:17:08- I'm not going to disturb you or advise you, I feel I've bullied you enough.- Thank you!
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Well, you know what they say about leading a horse to water?
0:17:13 > 0:17:15- What you doing?- Shall we move? Shall we move?
0:17:15 > 0:17:18- No, have another look. - Come and help us.
0:17:18 > 0:17:22- No.- Why?- No, it's your choice.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Thank you Thomas(!)
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Taking a more hands-off approach than Thomas.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Go on. Have a good look!
0:17:31 > 0:17:33Don't move away until you find something.
0:17:33 > 0:17:38- You see, you're bullying me again. - No, I'm not bullying you.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Hmm, perhaps not.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- Don, Nicky.- Ooh right.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50- Ooh that's nice. That's quite! - Ooh, I say!
0:17:50 > 0:17:53- Yes, Thomas. - What's that mark on the top there?
0:17:54 > 0:17:57Can I borrow your little...?
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Do you need it, your 20/20's not helping you, your glasses.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03There you are.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07Oh yeah, Chester.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Oh, is it?
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Very nice.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Agreement at last.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16- A lovely cane. What do you think, Nicky?- I think it's very nice.
0:18:16 > 0:18:20- Even though you've chose it again. - I haven't.- You haven't, no, great.
0:18:20 > 0:18:25- No, it is nice.- The thing is it's not monogrammed either.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- I don't know what the price is. - 95.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- Really?- Would you do 55?
0:18:30 > 0:18:32No, I'd have to do 65.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35How about 60 and a big love from me?
0:18:35 > 0:18:40And a big love from me!
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Well, I'm not sure I approve of your methods.
0:18:43 > 0:18:44Here we go!
0:18:46 > 0:18:49But you've certainly beaten the clock.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Meanwhile in the Blue camp I fear we're going to have to
0:18:52 > 0:18:55bring the curtain down before they make their final buy.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58This is certainly over the top, isn't it really?
0:18:58 > 0:19:02It's either one of these things you love or you hate.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Well I hate it.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05- You really hate it?- I hate it.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11To be fair though in our house you've got worse items than this.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13We're going to have a fight now!
0:19:13 > 0:19:15The strain is beginning to show.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19We now have five minutes. What are you going to do? Five minutes.
0:19:19 > 0:19:23I think we need to go for the dressing table.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25- I hope it's still there.- So do I.
0:19:25 > 0:19:30I hope so too, or this production may just turn into a tragedy.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32- Come on David.- Oh god!
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Shake a leg, Barbie. Not bad for his age, is he?
0:19:38 > 0:19:41I've given the thumbs up to the owner, it's still available. It's yours.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44- Are you happy now?- Brilliant. - Gosh, I think that's.- Close.
0:19:44 > 0:19:50Three minutes. Three minutes to spare. Don't ever do that again!
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Stop the clock, cos time's up!
0:19:53 > 0:19:57But there's just time for a quick reminder of today's purchases.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59A bit of a silver theme for the Reds.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02A Charles Horner whistle caught their attention
0:20:02 > 0:20:07and then set them back £58. Thomas thought 45 smackers was a bargain
0:20:07 > 0:20:10for the military table lighter.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14And the silver-topped walking stick was secured for £60
0:20:14 > 0:20:18and a whole lot of love.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- I think you've been a bit bullied here, haven't you?- I have!
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- No? I think the boys have been ganging up on you.- Yes.- No!
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Do you feel you've had a fair shot?
0:20:27 > 0:20:31It's not too bad, but if I don't make any money at the auction,
0:20:31 > 0:20:34- that stick is going to have some... - Stick.- Yeah.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Is that stick going somewhere the sun don't shine?
0:20:36 > 0:20:40All right. That's a happy thought(!) What did you spend all round?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Um, it was 163.
0:20:43 > 0:20:47163. So, can I have 137, please?
0:20:47 > 0:20:50- You certainly can. - £137, lovely.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52- Here we go, look, Thomas. - Thank you very much.
0:20:52 > 0:20:58- What will you spend it on?- I haven't seen anything yet, but I'm going to spend it wisely.- As usual!
0:20:58 > 0:20:59- I try to.- Yes, quite.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02You go and relax, guys, have a cup of tea.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Meanwhile, we'll check out what the Blue Team bought.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08The Blues went for more of a mixed bag.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11This pretty little teapot proved a bargain at just £15.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14At £25, David thought this Scottish silver ladle
0:21:14 > 0:21:17would really cut the mustard at auction.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20And big spender, Michael, decided to take a gamble
0:21:20 > 0:21:26on this elegant mahogany dressing table, which set them back £110.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Team, how did you get on?
0:21:28 > 0:21:31- Very well.- Quite well. I'm quite happy.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35- Three minutes to spare. - Three minutes to spare. Well, that's comfy, isn't it?
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Loads of time.- How was the shopping for you, David Barby?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Very exciting. Almost like being at a theatrical performance.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45- Yes. You'd expect that from this thespian lot, wouldn't you?- Yes.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47How much did you spend all round?
0:21:47 > 0:21:49- We spent £150.- On the nail!- Mm-hm.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53That's easy, then - I want £150 back, please.
0:21:53 > 0:21:58- There we go.- 150. That goes straight across to the Barby.- Oh, yummy!
0:21:58 > 0:22:04That's it. Good luck, team! We're heading off to Croft Castle and that's awfully, awfully nice.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11Built in the 17th century, Croft Castle in North Herefordshire
0:22:11 > 0:22:15is an early example of the revival of Gothic architecture.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19The theme continues inside, where, in the 18th century,
0:22:19 > 0:22:25many rooms were redecorated in the then fashionable and highly ornate Gothic rococo style
0:22:25 > 0:22:28by architect Thomas Farnolls Pritchard
0:22:33 > 0:22:39In the 1760s, when Pritchard was remodelling the interior of the castle,
0:22:39 > 0:22:44he set to work creating a magnificent first floor drawing room.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47This space is called the Ambassadors Room,
0:22:47 > 0:22:52apparently because it was going to be used to greet some ambassadors
0:22:52 > 0:22:57who were visiting, but who, in the end, never actually pitched up.
0:22:57 > 0:23:02The Gothic influence is most obvious in the room in the way in which
0:23:02 > 0:23:07Pritchard created these two Gothic cupboards, either side of the door.
0:23:07 > 0:23:15But as far as the furniture's concerned, I guess the best that you could possibly expect to see
0:23:15 > 0:23:21in this whimsical rococo Gothic 18th century revival
0:23:21 > 0:23:24is reflected in a group of these chairs.
0:23:24 > 0:23:31Each have a castellated top rail, which you'd expect to find,
0:23:31 > 0:23:34in a castle like Croft Castle.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37The back splat is extremely elaborate.
0:23:37 > 0:23:42We've got something called quatrefoil - quatre from four - foils.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46Four shapes - that's that middle one -
0:23:46 > 0:23:49flanked by another pierced section called a trefoil,
0:23:49 > 0:23:53cos it's got three little cusps within it.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57And then we've got the splat divisions themselves,
0:23:57 > 0:24:03which look just like the columns that you'd expect to find in a Gothic cathedral.
0:24:03 > 0:24:09The designer of this chair is probably an architect called William Porden
0:24:09 > 0:24:15who was renowned for his interpretation of this English Gothic.
0:24:15 > 0:24:20He, for example, for the Duke of Westminster, built Eaton Hall.
0:24:20 > 0:24:26He also had a hand in Brighton Pavilion for the Prince Regent.
0:24:26 > 0:24:33But a really delightful thing to discover in the Ambassadors Room is this clock.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35What do you think about that?
0:24:35 > 0:24:38Looks as if it's made of gold, doesn't it?
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Well, there is a bit of gold in it,
0:24:41 > 0:24:44but the gold is only wafer-thick,
0:24:44 > 0:24:46because this is something called gilt bronze.
0:24:46 > 0:24:51We're talking about an object that was made maybe around 1580.
0:24:51 > 0:24:56It incorporates Gothic elements, but from a substantially earlier period.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00We've got these pierced finials at each of the corners.
0:25:00 > 0:25:05We've got three tiers, two of which contain bells,
0:25:05 > 0:25:09but if you look at the piercings around the bells,
0:25:09 > 0:25:13they too have got Gothic cusped tops.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17What I think's riveting about this is, when you look at the dial,
0:25:17 > 0:25:22the big chapter ring at the top gives you the hours
0:25:22 > 0:25:24and it's the tiny little dial underneath
0:25:24 > 0:25:31that gives you the minutes. Well, all I can say is that time waiteth for no man,
0:25:31 > 0:25:36including our contestants today over at the auction.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55Peter Wilson is our destination today for the auction
0:25:55 > 0:25:59and Robert Stones, proprietor, maestro and all-round hero
0:25:59 > 0:26:03- is our host. Robert.- Great to see you, Tom.- Lovely to see you too.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06- Good build-up there?- It was, I felt quite pleased with that one.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- It's all on the script.- Lovely!
0:26:09 > 0:26:13Anyway, the first item for the Reds is the silver whistle.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16Yep. Very popular thing, I think very commercial.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20I think a wise buy. Obviously I don't know what they paid for it,
0:26:20 > 0:26:24but it's got a very indistinct hallmark.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28I've said Chester, 1882, possibly,
0:26:28 > 0:26:32in the catalogue, because I think it gives more of a chance of selling.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36There are collectors of Chester silver, because we're near Chester.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39And I think it's a really nice, commercial thing.
0:26:39 > 0:26:40So, what's your estimate?
0:26:40 > 0:26:41- 50 to 60.- OK, £58 paid.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45- We're on the button there.- I think they'll get out of jail with that.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49The table lighter, in the form of a grenade,
0:26:49 > 0:26:51- but pretty low grade, isn't it?- Yes.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54The only thing I would say in favour of this
0:26:54 > 0:26:57is that militaria, we're finding,
0:26:57 > 0:27:01- is doing particularly well at the moment.- Yes.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04So, although it's not great, it's interesting, isn't it?
0:27:04 > 0:27:07You've taken the condition into account, no doubt.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10- What's your estimate?- 30 to 40. - £45, they paid.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12- So they paid plenty enough for it. - Yeah.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Almost continuing a military theme,
0:27:15 > 0:27:18I know the stick isn't military, but it's got a kind of look to it.
0:27:18 > 0:27:23It has. And people do collect silver-topped walking sticks.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27But this is one of the rather more ordinary ones.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- But the condition of it's pretty reasonable.- How much?
0:27:31 > 0:27:33- 30 to 50.- £60 paid.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35- Did they?- I think they paid a bit much.
0:27:35 > 0:27:41I don't see huge profits here. They may need their bonus buy. Let's have a look at it.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45Now, John and Nicky, you spent £163.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48You gave £137 to Thomas Plant.
0:27:48 > 0:27:50Thomas Plant, what did you buy?
0:27:50 > 0:27:54Well, because you were so mean, I decided to spend it all...
0:27:54 > 0:27:59- Oh, my gosh!- ..on a very fine early chemist's bottle,
0:27:59 > 0:28:04pharmaceutical bottle, probably from about 1820.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08There are collectors of bottles.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12I don't know if bottle collecting is still as popular as it once was,
0:28:12 > 0:28:15but there are certain collectors for it.
0:28:15 > 0:28:18It is rare to find one in such good condition.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21It is in good condition, really, for its age.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Absolutely. It's a proper thing.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25- How much did you pay for it? - All the money.
0:28:25 > 0:28:29- I don't like it.- Every single penny. - Every penny?!
0:28:29 > 0:28:32£137. It was marked up at a lot more.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35I said I had £137, would that do?
0:28:35 > 0:28:38So, do you like it, John?
0:28:38 > 0:28:41- Not for that price, no.- Nicky? - No way!
0:28:41 > 0:28:42- No.- No way.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Would you pay £137 for that, Nicks?
0:28:45 > 0:28:48Um, I'd probably use it as a sample bottle.
0:28:48 > 0:28:50Would you?!
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Sorry, Tom. How much do you think it'll make?
0:28:53 > 0:28:56We'll have to wait and see. It is a huge risk,
0:28:56 > 0:29:01but, as I've always said, the greatest risk is not taking that risk.
0:29:01 > 0:29:02- Right.- OK.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06- Thanks, Thomas. We'll think about that.- There's a philosophy for you!
0:29:06 > 0:29:11OK, chaps. For the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Tom's bottle.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13There you go, Robert.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16A nice bottle of something for you.
0:29:16 > 0:29:21Yes. I wouldn't have said wine. I'm not sure about chemist, really,
0:29:21 > 0:29:24cos chemist bottles tended to be better quality
0:29:24 > 0:29:27and often had the substance on the front of them
0:29:27 > 0:29:30as to what they should be containing, for obvious reasons.
0:29:30 > 0:29:32It's a rather odd thing, really.
0:29:32 > 0:29:38Decorative, for sure, but rather difficult to actually pin down as to what its use might've been.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40Possibly acid - who knows?
0:29:40 > 0:29:43- How much?- 40 to 60.
0:29:43 > 0:29:44Er, how much?
0:29:44 > 0:29:4640 to 60.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48Am I going deaf here?
0:29:48 > 0:29:50- Did you say 40 to 60?- Yeah.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54- Thomas paid £137 for this.- No!- Yes.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56Good lord. I don't know.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59- Well...- Perhaps he's on acid!
0:29:59 > 0:30:01I think we've got our work cut out, anyhow.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05Yes. Well, yes. Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:30:05 > 0:30:06Now for the Blues,
0:30:06 > 0:30:09and what a wacky mixture we've got with this lot!
0:30:09 > 0:30:12A small, treacle-glazed teapot.
0:30:12 > 0:30:16Yes. Bit of a dispute, really, as to who's made it.
0:30:16 > 0:30:20There was a suggestion it might've been made by Till & Co.
0:30:20 > 0:30:24We looked at it and thought possibly Wedgwood, actually.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27A charming little teapot, but fairly ordinary, I think.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29- Don't you agree?- Yes.
0:30:29 > 0:30:30- How much?- 20 to 30.
0:30:30 > 0:30:32Brilliant, £15 paid.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34- Probably not such a bad buy then.- No? - Yep.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36That's very good. Um, now...
0:30:36 > 0:30:43- The nice silver, Scottish... It's a sort of sauce ladle, isn't it?- Yes.
0:30:43 > 0:30:48Sauce or maybe mustard. Possibly not quite the right shape for mustard.
0:30:48 > 0:30:53Either way, this is good, because it's an unusual hallmark on it.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56- And people do chase Scottish-made silver, don't they?- Yep.
0:30:56 > 0:31:00- Quite strongly.- Yeah. And 1830's a good date mark,
0:31:00 > 0:31:03so I think that's a pretty reasonable thing.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06- What's your estimate?- 30 to 50. - Brilliant, £25 paid.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09- Oh, that's a great buy, yeah.- It is.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13What about the wee dressing chest?
0:31:13 > 0:31:16When I first saw this, I was quite excited about it,
0:31:16 > 0:31:22and then I did a double-take on it. Initially, I thought £100, £120.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24And then I looked at it more closely
0:31:24 > 0:31:27and realised all the handles on it are new!
0:31:27 > 0:31:29Yes.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31And the hinges have been replaced on it.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34And there's a mark on the cupboard door.
0:31:34 > 0:31:38It started making me back off on the price a little bit.
0:31:38 > 0:31:42- What's your estimate?- 40 to 60. - The Barby paid 110.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44- Did he? That's a lot of money.- It is.
0:31:44 > 0:31:48I think, with the right handles, that's fair enough. But, hmm...
0:31:48 > 0:31:51- As is. Anyway, you'll do your very best.- We will.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54On that basis, that it might not take off,
0:31:54 > 0:31:57they're going to need their bonus buy. Let's have a look at it.
0:31:57 > 0:32:01Now, Michael, Cathy, you spent 150, you clever couple,
0:32:01 > 0:32:05and you gave the old boy 150. What did you spend it on?
0:32:05 > 0:32:08- I spent the lot.- Did you?!- Yes. - Oh, good for you!
0:32:08 > 0:32:10And I bought...
0:32:10 > 0:32:14- this piece of jewellery.- OK(!)
0:32:14 > 0:32:17It's 1970s, which is very fashionable at the moment.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20I'd like to think this was the philosopher's stone,
0:32:20 > 0:32:23because there, right in the middle of this globule of silver,
0:32:23 > 0:32:26we have a rough-cut quartz.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28It is all solid silver.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32It is hallmarked for 1970.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34It's a sort of one-off fashion moment.
0:32:34 > 0:32:39The whole idea of this silver is that they would melt silver
0:32:39 > 0:32:41and let it drop into a pan of water.
0:32:41 > 0:32:46So, whatever form it took, they'd take out the fragments
0:32:46 > 0:32:51and then solder it together and enclose a jewel.
0:32:51 > 0:32:52Very Gothic.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54- What do you think?- Um...
0:32:54 > 0:32:58- Yes...- You don't like it, I can tell it on your face!
0:32:58 > 0:33:01- It's interesting.- Yes! It is interesting.
0:33:01 > 0:33:02It's very interesting.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05We'll just see how the auction goes.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08- Ask how much profit it'll make. - How much profit will it make?
0:33:08 > 0:33:12I think we might break even on it, but I just loved it!
0:33:12 > 0:33:14That's the honest answer!
0:33:14 > 0:33:16Thank you very much for that.
0:33:16 > 0:33:22For the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks David's medallion.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25OK, Robert, here's something for you to wear at the weekends.
0:33:25 > 0:33:30- Always thought you were a bit of a medallion man. - Medallion man, yeah(!)
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Well, this is some medallion, Tim.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Gosh, look at that. It's silver, hallmarked silver.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37But very much of the era, isn't it?
0:33:37 > 0:33:43The '70s, you can just see this being something people would perhaps want.
0:33:43 > 0:33:48It's got something about it, but I'm not quite sure who's going to go for it in Nantwich, really.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51Well, no. Maybe we could start something new.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55- Anyway, there we go. It's a bit of a mystery.- It is.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57- Fine. How much?- 60 to 80.
0:33:57 > 0:33:58Is that all?
0:33:58 > 0:34:02- That's on the weight, really?- It is. How much did he pay?- £150.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04- £150!- Yeah.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06£150, well...
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- No pressure, Tim!- No.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Are the teams going to go with the bonus buy?
0:34:11 > 0:34:14What is going to happen with this shambles?!
0:34:14 > 0:34:17All will be revealed in a moment. Thank you very much, Robert.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18- Thanks, Tim.- Good luck.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21At £20, at 25, 30.
0:34:21 > 0:34:2630 bid. 35, 40 now. At 45. At 40, I'm bidding.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28£40, at £40.
0:34:28 > 0:34:3045 anywhere else? At 40, then, being sold...
0:34:30 > 0:34:33So, John and Nicky, how are you feeling, kids?
0:34:33 > 0:34:36- Nervous.- Are you? - My tummy's going over and over.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Poor you! Is there any particular item you're worried about?
0:34:40 > 0:34:43- No, no.- Just a general fear that's in your heart?- Just fear.
0:34:43 > 0:34:48- Is it terrible?- I've done a little bit on the lighter that we bought,
0:34:48 > 0:34:50- with the Munsters.- Yes.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53I found out, when I went and told my parents about it,
0:34:53 > 0:34:57I found out that my grandad actually served in the Royal Munsters.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00- He never did!- And, last week, I went to a fair and bought...
0:35:00 > 0:35:03a cap badge, with the Royal Munsters.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- So, it's a real bit of family root then, isn't it?- Yes.
0:35:06 > 0:35:09First up is the whistle and here comes the whistle.
0:35:09 > 0:35:11Let's hope it whistles up a profit.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14Lot number 98, this delightful silver whistle,
0:35:14 > 0:35:16ladies and gentlemen.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19Possibly Chester and we like Chester silver in this room.
0:35:19 > 0:35:20£50, I'm bid for this.
0:35:20 > 0:35:22At 50, 5 anywhere?
0:35:22 > 0:35:24£50, I'm bid and 5 now, quickly?
0:35:24 > 0:35:2555, 60,
0:35:25 > 0:35:2965. At 60 I have. That's on commission against you in the room.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31At 60, 5 anywhere now? At £60 only,
0:35:31 > 0:35:33at 60, 5 anywhere?
0:35:33 > 0:35:37At £60 only, then, at 60, all quiet and done at 60.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40- Plus £2. That's a nice profit. Nice start.- Well done.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Now, here goes the lighter.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45Lot number 99 is the military officer's
0:35:45 > 0:35:48mess table lighter.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51What may we say? Several commissions on this.
0:35:51 > 0:35:52I can start the bidding at £60.
0:35:52 > 0:35:55At 60, I have, at 60.
0:35:55 > 0:35:5765, 70 bid. 75 now.
0:35:57 > 0:36:01At 70 on commission, 5, now, do I hear? At £70 only, at 70.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04With me, at £70, it will be sold.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06At £70, only, then, at 70.
0:36:06 > 0:36:0975, well done. 75, 80, now.
0:36:09 > 0:36:1275, the bid's there at 75.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15That's very good. £30 profit. Excellent!
0:36:15 > 0:36:20Lot number 100, silver-topped walking cane.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22We like this and £40 bid for it straight away.
0:36:22 > 0:36:25At £40, on commission at 40. 5, now, do I hear?
0:36:25 > 0:36:27£40, I'm bid. 5 now, 45 there.
0:36:27 > 0:36:3050, are you bidding? 50 bid. 55. 55?
0:36:30 > 0:36:31At 50 there.
0:36:31 > 0:36:33- At 55 with me.- Go on, go on, go on!
0:36:33 > 0:36:3555 here, 55 on commission.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37- 60 anywhere else? - One more, one more.
0:36:37 > 0:36:42- At £55, at £55, with me at £55 on commission...- Come on!
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Oh, bad luck!
0:36:44 > 0:36:48£55, minus £5 on that. So close to getting a profit on all three.
0:36:48 > 0:36:50That deserved more than that.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53Cos I've never had the gavel.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56You are plus £27. There's no shame in that.
0:36:56 > 0:36:59So, what are you going to do with the chemist's bottle?
0:36:59 > 0:37:02- Are you going to hang on to your 27? - Yes.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04- We're going to stick.- Sorry.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07We're not going with the bonus buy, but here comes the bottle anyway.
0:37:07 > 0:37:11Lot number 104. 104 is the large, green chemist bottle.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15Lovely lot for you, £30 anywhere for this one, please? At £30.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17A really good decorative bottle.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19£30 bid straight away. At 30, I'm bid.
0:37:19 > 0:37:2235 now? At 30, the bid's there.
0:37:22 > 0:37:2435, now. 40, now, do I hear? 40 bid.
0:37:24 > 0:37:2645 now.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- At 40, the bid's there.- It's going.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31And 5 anywhere else? At 45 on the internet.
0:37:31 > 0:37:3350 now. 45's on the internet.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35At 45. At 45, then...
0:37:35 > 0:37:37You are minus £92 on that.
0:37:37 > 0:37:40But you never went with it anyway, so we parked it.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43What you do is walk away with plus £27, all right?
0:37:43 > 0:37:45That's a very good score.
0:37:45 > 0:37:48Don't worry about that. It could be a winning score.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52- Just don't tell those Blues a thing. - We won't.- Zip it! Thank you.
0:37:57 > 0:38:01- Now, Michael, Cathy, do you know how the Reds got on?- No.- Not a clue.
0:38:01 > 0:38:05Not a clue. That's the way we like to keep it. Are you quite confident?
0:38:05 > 0:38:10- Ish.- Quietly confident.- Ish. - Ish.- Where's the "ish" coming from?
0:38:10 > 0:38:13The ish comes from - well, what do you think, Michael?
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Possibly we might make a loss on the dresser.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17- You reckon?- Yeah.
0:38:17 > 0:38:21First up, though, is the teapot. Here it comes.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24Lovely little thing. What may we say for it?
0:38:24 > 0:38:27At £20, I promise you, this is great value for money.
0:38:27 > 0:38:30At £20 anywhere, do I hear?
0:38:30 > 0:38:32£20 surely? At 10, then.
0:38:32 > 0:38:36At £10. I need to sell this. 10, I've got. At 10.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39- 12 is the next bid. I know, I despair.- I cannot believe it!
0:38:39 > 0:38:4214, 16... 18? 16 here.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45At £16. 18 is now.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47- 16, the bid's there. - You're in profit.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49At £16. 18 anywhere?
0:38:49 > 0:38:52At £16, the bid's there, at £16.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54Yes, you've made a profit! Well done.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57Plus £1, that's marvellous.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59Now, here comes the sauce ladle.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Very unusual hallmark on this, ladies and gentlemen.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Glasgow, 1830, ladle.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Lovely thing, 121's your lot number.
0:39:07 > 0:39:08What may we say for it?
0:39:08 > 0:39:10£20 to start it off,
0:39:10 > 0:39:13at £20. 20 bid, 25, 30, 35. 40 now. 40, yes?
0:39:13 > 0:39:1640 bid. 45, 50 now.
0:39:16 > 0:39:1845's your bid, at 45.
0:39:18 > 0:39:2050, fresh bidder, 55. 60 now.
0:39:20 > 0:39:2455, 60, 60 bid. 65. 60, your bid.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27At £60, the bid's there. Lovely thing, at £60, at £60.
0:39:27 > 0:39:315 anywhere else? At £60, bid's there at 60, going to be sold.
0:39:31 > 0:39:35That is plus £35. I love it.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37So, you are plus 36.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39Now, the cabinet.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41This is the dreaded one.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43Great piece of furniture, really useful thing.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47£60 bid on it straight away. At 60 and 5 is the now. 65 anywhere now?
0:39:47 > 0:39:50At £60, the bid's with me on commission at 60.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52And 5, now, do I hear?
0:39:52 > 0:39:54- At £60 only, and 5. - I want it!
0:39:54 > 0:39:55At £60 the bid, £60 only.
0:39:55 > 0:39:58At 60, it's going to be sold, at £60 only.
0:39:58 > 0:39:59- That's it.- Ohh!
0:39:59 > 0:40:03£60, I'm sorry, lads, that is minus 50,
0:40:03 > 0:40:07which means, overall, you are minus £14.
0:40:07 > 0:40:11So exciting to get it right up there with your profit of 36,
0:40:11 > 0:40:15to be reduced to minus 14, which could be a winning score, you never know.
0:40:15 > 0:40:19- Could be.- So, what will you do about the bonus buy? Will you risk all,
0:40:19 > 0:40:24£150, and go with the spiky solid silver rock-encrusted pendant,
0:40:24 > 0:40:25or are you going to stick?
0:40:25 > 0:40:27BOTH: Stick!
0:40:27 > 0:40:30- Sorry, David.- I think that was unanimous, wasn't it?- Yeah.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33It's lovely, but it's definitely unanimous.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36We won't go with the bonus buy, but we'll sell it anyway.
0:40:36 > 0:40:37Stand by, David!
0:40:37 > 0:40:41The contemporary pendant, ladies and gentlemen, we like this one.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44It's a good lot for somebody. 126, the lot number.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46£40, I'm bid for this, straight away.
0:40:46 > 0:40:48£45 is the now, 45 anywhere now?
0:40:48 > 0:40:52At 40, the bid's on commission. At 45, 50, 55?
0:40:52 > 0:40:54No?!
0:40:54 > 0:40:56At 50, the bid's with me, and 5 anywhere now?
0:40:56 > 0:40:59At £50 only, at 55, 60, with me.
0:40:59 > 0:41:0165 is now. 60's on commission.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04At 60, 65 is the now.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06At £60, with me, on commission, going to be sold.
0:41:06 > 0:41:08At £60, then...
0:41:08 > 0:41:11£60 is minus 90. Just as well you didn't go with it,
0:41:11 > 0:41:15because your true score is minus £14.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17That could be a winning score.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20Don't say a word to the Reds and all will be revealed in a moment.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22- Thank you very much. - Thank you very much!
0:41:27 > 0:41:29Well, that was fun, wasn't it?
0:41:29 > 0:41:32- Did we have a good time today?- Yes! - Excellent time.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34- Do you know each other's results?- No.- No.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37Have you been talking about the score? No? That's good.
0:41:37 > 0:41:40Well, there is a bit of a gap between our teams today -
0:41:40 > 0:41:44not that much of a gap, but, nevertheless, a bit of a gap.
0:41:44 > 0:41:46And the runners-up today are...
0:41:46 > 0:41:48- the Blues.- Ohh!- Ohh!
0:41:48 > 0:41:50THEY LAUGH
0:41:50 > 0:41:52< Get on!
0:41:52 > 0:41:54Pure joy, there, from the Reds.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57It started out so beautifully, didn't it?
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Nice profit on the Till teapot.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04And then you get a profit on your lovely Scottish ladle,
0:42:04 > 0:42:08and then that thumping loss, which knocked you back.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11Anyway, you didn't go with the bonus buy, which is just as well!
0:42:11 > 0:42:15- Thank God!- And minus £14 is your overall score.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18There's no shame in that, I tell you!
0:42:18 > 0:42:21But, today, we're up against a brick wall,
0:42:21 > 0:42:23a brick wall of winnings from the Reds.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26So, bad luck for that, but well done, Reds.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29You nearly got a profit on each item.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31Just a tad off on that wretched cane,
0:42:31 > 0:42:35- which is a shame.- It should've made more.- It should.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39But this is auction and you just can't tell what's going to happen.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Anyway, you're £27 up on that.
0:42:41 > 0:42:46- Just as well you didn't go with the bonus buy, which we don't talk about at all, do we, Thomas?!- Nope!
0:42:46 > 0:42:50Overall, you are plus 27 and it is with the greatest of pleasure
0:42:50 > 0:42:55- that I present you with your 27 smackers...- Thank you. - ..to take home,
0:42:55 > 0:42:58which is an achievement on Bargain Hunt, as we all know.
