0:00:02 > 0:00:06Take 500 stalls, stick them in a field and what have you got?
0:00:06 > 0:00:08Let's go bargain hunting.
0:00:33 > 0:00:39Today, we're hunting for bargains in Kent, the garden of England.
0:00:39 > 0:00:44But who will come up stinking of roses - the Reds or the Blues?
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Let's find out.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49- Will the Reds find anything they like?- I don't like that.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53- You don't like that?- No.- Hat pins?
0:00:53 > 0:00:56And will the Blues manage to like each other?
0:00:56 > 0:01:00- I've lost her.- Is that good or bad? - It depends on your point of view.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05That's all coming up. For now, let me remind you of the rules.
0:01:05 > 0:01:10Each team gets £300 and an hour to shop for three items.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14The team that makes the biggest profit or the smallest loss wins.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16See? It's simple. Duh!
0:01:22 > 0:01:25Well, we've got a bit of a performing arts theme
0:01:25 > 0:01:26to our programme today.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30For the Reds, we've got Naomi and Peter and for the Blues,
0:01:30 > 0:01:34- we've got David and Marika. Welcome to Bargain Hunt.- Thank you.
0:01:34 > 0:01:39- Peter, how did you two first hook up?- We first met in school when we were in sixth form.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42I was known round school for riding a unicycle.
0:01:42 > 0:01:47- I bet you were the only one at school that did that.- Yeah.
0:01:47 > 0:01:52- Is that why you started on the unicycle? - Yeah. It was to meet Naomi.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55What is it about this circus business?
0:01:55 > 0:02:02I teach kids and adults alike how to juggle and walk a tightrope.
0:02:02 > 0:02:10- What trick are you going to do for us now?- I have some juggling balls.
0:02:10 > 0:02:15That's handy. This is your test, stand by.
0:02:15 > 0:02:16Here we go.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24Ooh, my lord! Look at that.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Congratulations. That's quite something.
0:02:27 > 0:02:37- Well done. Naomi, are you in the circus game, too?- Just a little bit. Pete started teaching me a few bits.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42- You're not the glamorous assistant that comes on wearing one of those spangly dresses?- No.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46That's your lucky day. What sort of things are you going to buy?
0:02:46 > 0:02:49We'll be looking for some unusual items. Maybe silver.
0:02:49 > 0:02:54- You're the haggler and I'm the one who spots the bargains.- Are you?- Yes.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58- That's how you're going to split your responsibilities?- Yes. - Good luck. I'm sure you'll do well.
0:02:58 > 0:03:02- The kids on the block. How are you two?- Fine, thank you.
0:03:02 > 0:03:09- Marika, you're a circus performer, too.- A failure.- Failure?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11- You ran away when you were ten. - I hated life in the circus.
0:03:11 > 0:03:16- What was your role? - All kind of acrobatics as well as walking on a tightrope.
0:03:16 > 0:03:22- On a windy day, you pay the price. - Yes, you'd presumably fall off.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27- Do those skills come in handy today? - Yes.
0:03:27 > 0:03:32I walk on roofs to help friends with their TV cables.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37- You're a satellite dish installer! - No. Just an interferer.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41It's enough to make you want to have your aerial installed.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44How did you two meet?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47I was helping out in the pub opposite Covent Garden
0:03:47 > 0:03:51and I had a flat given to me while I was training as a manageress
0:03:51 > 0:03:54but I didn't know my way back to my digs.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57I was walking, trying to find my way back
0:03:57 > 0:04:01and I saw this huge looming figure.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- And it was...?- A policeman. - So that's what you used to do?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Can you remember that murky evening when you came across this gorgeous thing?- Yes.
0:04:08 > 0:04:13She wasn't gorgeous when I found her. She was a bit bedraggled.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16It was snowing and it was April.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19And I thought, because she was so small,
0:04:19 > 0:04:24that she'd escaped from the approved school so I stopped her.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29- Did you say "'Ello, 'ello, 'ello"? - Something like that. 'Ello, darlin'.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31I said, "How old are you, little girl?"
0:04:31 > 0:04:34And she said, "I'm not a little girl. I'm 24."
0:04:34 > 0:04:35The eyes burnt holes in my face.
0:04:35 > 0:04:40She told me where she wanted to go so I walked up Constitution Hill
0:04:40 > 0:04:44and halfway up the hill, she asked if she could hold my hand.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47I looked to make sure there was no-one looking.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51I put her on the night bus and we got married six months later.
0:04:51 > 0:04:56- That was 47 years ago.- Tell us what your tactics are going to be today.
0:04:56 > 0:05:03- David likes books.- I like books. - I like silver, glass, those kind of bits.
0:05:03 > 0:05:10- Which of you will get their way today? - She is.- Oh, is she?- I'm afraid so.
0:05:10 > 0:05:15On that happy note, I'd better give you the money. £300 apiece.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19You know the rules. Your experts await and off you go.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Very, very good luck. Well, I never did.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27With our teams today,
0:05:27 > 0:05:31it's David Barby for the Reds, also known as Blondie.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35And Philip Serrell for the Blues.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40What are you going to look for today?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- Have you got a plan as to what we're going to buy?- I have.- She has.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Maybe some model animals or some silver.
0:05:46 > 0:05:51- The directions are coming from this angle.- Top hat.
0:05:51 > 0:05:56- That sounds brilliant. - Top hats, animals.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00This is an antiques fair, not a big top.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04- This hour will go quickly, so we've got to whizz this.- OK.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Keep your eyes open. Search for anything unusual.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20- Mind if we have a look at that? - What, the mannequin? Do you like that?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- Yes.- You don't like humanoid figures! - That's all right.
0:06:23 > 0:06:27It's got a very cute-looking face. It's not modern by any means.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Are we really considering this?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33- I think that's quirky, don't you?- Yes.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35What would I do with that figure?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37I can see it removed from a commercial
0:06:37 > 0:06:41space like a department store and if you have a loft conversion,
0:06:41 > 0:06:44that would stand cleverly in a corner.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47It's like a focal point of the room. It looks like it's got some history to it.
0:06:47 > 0:06:52- It could be a seller.- Or a flop. - Yeah, definitely.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56- What do you think? - I've never had anything like this.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59It will be all or nothing.
0:06:59 > 0:07:03It's going to make 100, 150 or it's going to bomb.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07£65, I think that's a reasonable sum.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10The dealer's over there. Try to negotiate.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Try to get it down to 60 if you can. Off you go.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Don't leave me on my own with it.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21It's enough to give you the heebie jeebies.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24- Have you spotted something? - She doesn't hang around.
0:07:24 > 0:07:30- I think that's quite nice.- Why do you think that's nice?- I like the shape.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- I don't know if it's for port. - A claret jug.- Yes.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37I like it and it's quite stylish, but there's no age.
0:07:39 > 0:07:43Where would you say it was made? Germany? It's not English, is it?
0:07:43 > 0:07:47If I could read that, I could tell you. But my eyes are that bad.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Let him have it.- Here we go.
0:07:51 > 0:07:57- Do you want a magnifying glass? - INAUDIBLE
0:07:57 > 0:08:03- Spanish. - I still like the look of it.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07- I think we should leave that for a bit.- Think about it.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11We have got to whizz round here.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Hey, Philip, why don't you just let Marika decide what she wants?
0:08:15 > 0:08:21- What have you done? - We got it down to 60.- Ooh.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- Our next buy.- I've seen it all now.
0:08:24 > 0:08:29Are the Blues taking a more traditional approach, then?
0:08:29 > 0:08:32We're at that age where people collect knickknacks
0:08:32 > 0:08:34and the next generation don't do that.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37Talk to him about knickknacks. Everywhere is full.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41- Are you the knickknack man? - Apparently so.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45- There's a bit of atmosphere here. - We get on very well.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Is it like this all the time?
0:08:47 > 0:08:49She's the reason I'm in London.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52- You get on well cos she's right and you're wrong.- Exactly.
0:08:52 > 0:08:53I'd got a general view, then.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- Could we have a look at those later? - We will indeed.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58- Come on, darling.- Sorry.
0:08:58 > 0:08:59We'll be moving on.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04The Blues are bickering and they still haven't bought a thing.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06They should take a leaf out of the Reds' book.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10They know what they want, don't they?
0:09:10 > 0:09:14- Is there anything in this cabinet you like?- Ew!- What?
0:09:14 > 0:09:15I don't like that.
0:09:15 > 0:09:20- That's really ugly.- The ring box, there. Would you like that?- No.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- Hat pins? No? Right, OK. - That's a no.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Am I looking in the wrong direction for you?- Yes.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32David's discovering that Naomi mostly likes nothing.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Will Philip persuade the Blues to break into their budget?
0:09:35 > 0:09:39- Do you like these. - I do, actually.- What about you?
0:09:39 > 0:09:44- I had a word with the dealer earlier.- How much?- £55.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47He's paid 45 for them. He wants a tenner profit.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51- It's not bad for this.- There's a way you've got to look at this.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56You've got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Seven of them. What's that? Eight quid a hanger.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03- If you went to a modern furniture store...- You'd get rubbish.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09This is turned wood, it's ebony. This is a nice bit of oak here.
0:10:09 > 0:10:14Then you've got these here, which could be for a cloak.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18Could possibly be for a wig if it was in a judge's lodgings.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21They're all quite nicely done.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- I think what we'll do is, you look after this one.- All right.
0:10:24 > 0:10:29- My head is beginning to hurt.- I've got no money.- You've got no money?
0:10:29 > 0:10:30- No.- Come on, off you go.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34The Blues are hung up on the coat hanger.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35But they need a bargain price.
0:10:35 > 0:10:40Has David managed to train Naomi's eye for antiques?
0:10:40 > 0:10:44- Anything that takes your fancy, you go for it.- OK.- All right.
0:10:47 > 0:10:53She's got the glass out again. I think you've done well with that. I bought it. £55. It was all right.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Can I leave this here and we can pick it up later on?
0:10:56 > 0:10:58You're a gentleman. Thanks very much.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Would you know where to look for the hallmark on this?
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Let's have a look. Just there.
0:11:02 > 0:11:07- They're normally always under the lip.- Right.- And how much are those?
0:11:07 > 0:11:09- £80.- £80 the pair?
0:11:09 > 0:11:13What I think you should do, if you can hang on to them for an hour, I'd be ever so grateful.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17- Thank you very much indeed. - Much obliged.- Right, come on, we're off. Follow me.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20Philip is still taking Marika in hand.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23The teams are level at one item apiece.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Can David tempt Naomi with her beloved animals?
0:11:27 > 0:11:32Hello. We're looking for something quirky with animals. Have you got anything?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Little fox heads. Let me tell you what this is.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45This is a jardiniere. It's for putting a potted plant in.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48It dates from round about the 1880s.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52The tiles are by one of the leading manufacturers of tiles, that's Mintons.
0:11:52 > 0:11:58The designs, just turn it round so I can have a look at the designs,
0:11:58 > 0:12:02they are all related to the fox and they are all Aesop fables.
0:12:02 > 0:12:07- Aesop fables? Not ringing a bell.- OK. - Not off the top of my head at least.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11He wrote a series of stories involving animals.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15- It is very weighty as well. - That's something I would buy myself.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18- Naomi's not convinced, chaps. - Have a look at it, handle it.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- What do you think?- Oh, it's heavy.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Should we ask how much it is? Sir?
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Sir, could I trouble you just a second? How much is this piece?
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Um, looking at about £150. - How much?- £150.
0:12:35 > 0:12:41Is that the very best you can do? I've got a broken tile.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44- £100 is the best, because of the broken tile.- £100 is...- This...
0:12:44 > 0:12:49- We need to try and make a profit. - ..is quality.- Hmm.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53- Is it the crack or...? - No, I'm just not really keen on it.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55The tiles look a bit strange in this frame.
0:12:55 > 0:13:01It's always been like this, because the foxes relate to the subject matter.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08- You're not sure, are you? - I don't know.- It's up to you.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11If you don't want it... I'd be happy to go for it, but...
0:13:11 > 0:13:13I would rather take the risk of it going
0:13:13 > 0:13:15and being able to look for something else.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22- Right.- We've got to leave it.
0:13:22 > 0:13:27Not a very cunning decision, Reds. And doesn't David look gutted?
0:13:28 > 0:13:34- Do you want it?- Yeah.- OK, go. - All right. Do your deal.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36The Reds see sense while the Blues carry on bickering.
0:13:36 > 0:13:42- What do you think? Because we've formed an opinion.- We have.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43I'm really sorry about this,
0:13:43 > 0:13:48- but I'm just going to stand with my mate because I think it's truly horrid.- Yeah.
0:13:48 > 0:13:54- Fine. Shall we go and have another look?- Look at this.
0:13:54 > 0:13:59- 1970s, a console. Isn't that incredible?- Maybe.- Moving on.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03What about a 1950s tile top table?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- I think we've got enough tiles.- OK.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11Naomi is still bearing a grudge against the foxy pot,
0:14:11 > 0:14:14but at least they've got two items in the bag.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17The Blues are sunk if they don't catch up, though!
0:14:17 > 0:14:21- Anything here grab you by the wotsits?- A fisherman's anchor?
0:14:21 > 0:14:26- That's a real one. Oh, yeah.- Are you sailing people?
0:14:26 > 0:14:31- I was, I used to do a bit of sailing.- He used to. - I like that.- It's a proper one.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35It is a proper one, but I think it's £20. Where's the auction?
0:14:35 > 0:14:39- Canterbury.- Is that on the coast? - Near enough. Part of Whitstable.
0:14:39 > 0:14:45- Which is a harbour town. What can you do on that one?- 38.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Good price to start with, wasn't it?
0:14:48 > 0:14:50At auction, that's going to make £20-£40,
0:14:50 > 0:14:53so these people have got to buy it somewhere near the bottom end.
0:14:53 > 0:14:59- £15?- What's the best you can do? - I'll go 28.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03- If you do it at 25, I'll have a go at it.- Do you reckon?
0:15:03 > 0:15:08You both laugh. The thing is, we've got agreement. That's a rarity.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12- Makes a change.- Can we buy it for £25 off you?- 25, then.
0:15:12 > 0:15:18- That gives me a little profit. - Is that all right?- Appreciated, that.
0:15:18 > 0:15:23- Thank you very much. - Thank you, my love, thank you.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Plain sailing for the Blues, but is David still in choppy waters with Naomi?
0:15:32 > 0:15:35You handle it, Naomi. This is your choice.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38- What do you think?- I like it.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40- It's a donkey.- Yeah, it's a donkey.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Are you keen on donkeys?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45- Mm, no, but...- It's unusual.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48- Yeah, it's unusual. - It IS unusual. It's very quirky.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50I love these little panniers.
0:15:50 > 0:15:55He wants 120 on it. I think 120's a lot of money,
0:15:55 > 0:15:59and I would be inclined, initially, if he won't come down lower,
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- to keep this in reserve.- Yes.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04- So you can come back to it. Does that sound rational?- Yes.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07- At least we now know what to look for.- Yes.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Yes, but that could change.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Marika is trying different tactics to get her own way.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16David, where's the gaffer?
0:16:16 > 0:16:20- Good point. Lost her. - Is that good or bad?
0:16:20 > 0:16:23It depends on your point of view. It's pretty good for me.
0:16:23 > 0:16:29- TIM LAUGHS - Meanwhile, has David managed to find a bit of what Naomi fancies?
0:16:29 > 0:16:32There you are. It's your choice, at the end of the day.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35The finial's slightly knocked over.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38- Pardon?- The finial's slightly off-centre.- Yeah.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42- What's the very best on that, sir? - 65 on it.
0:16:42 > 0:16:4440.
0:16:44 > 0:16:49- £40.- Mm. - And the little pepperette.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53We'll hold onto this one. Can we just have a look at the pepperette?
0:16:53 > 0:16:56I like that one. There's a lot of detail on that.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- There's a lot of detail. - You've got these little cherubs.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03- Ooh! But the price is twice as much! - Mm-hm.- What's the best on this, sir?
0:17:03 > 0:17:07- You have 130 on this?- 90.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Is that your very best?
0:17:09 > 0:17:14- 80. That's my very, very best. - I think that's quite nice.- Mm.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19- You've got the choice of the two. - Yeah, clever tactics, Barby.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22- It's up to you. You can have this one.- Em...
0:17:22 > 0:17:27If you can't make a decision, I shall ask this gentleman to take these back, put them in the cabinet,
0:17:27 > 0:17:30- and you can come back. - Yeah, I think we'll do that.
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- I'm not 100% sure yet.- So close!
0:17:33 > 0:17:36Right. We're not 100% certain yet, sir.
0:17:36 > 0:17:37Can I give you that one back?
0:17:37 > 0:17:41Hm. So, the Reds can't find a last item
0:17:41 > 0:17:46and the Blues can't find Marika. But I've found something cute.
0:17:46 > 0:17:52Sometimes, the most divine things come in very, very plain packages.
0:17:52 > 0:17:58Looks like a pretty dull, late-Victorian mahogany box, yeah?
0:17:58 > 0:18:01One or two giveaway clues, though.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Two clips, one each side,
0:18:04 > 0:18:07and as I open it up,
0:18:07 > 0:18:10stage one doesn't look a lot better, does it?
0:18:10 > 0:18:15But when we reveal the next hinged-out surface...
0:18:15 > 0:18:17- TIM LAUGHS - Look at that!
0:18:17 > 0:18:22A late-Victorian travelling chess set.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25And look at the quality. The chess board itself
0:18:25 > 0:18:29is inlaid most expertly with satinwood and rosewood.
0:18:29 > 0:18:33Miracle of miracles, the thing comes complete
0:18:33 > 0:18:37with its ivory or bone chessmen.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41And if you were interrupted because the 5.47 arrived in Paddington,
0:18:41 > 0:18:43you'd simply fold the whole set up
0:18:43 > 0:18:47and continue your game 20 minutes later, when you got home.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Absolutely marvellous.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51What's a set like this worth?
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Well, here in Detling, in Kent, today,
0:18:54 > 0:18:57you could buy this for £100.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00What might it be worth?
0:19:00 > 0:19:05Well, once or twice a year there's a specialist chess sale in London,
0:19:05 > 0:19:11where I think this little set could bring as much as £200.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Check that out, mate!
0:19:17 > 0:19:20And check out Marika! She's back!
0:19:20 > 0:19:25- So what have you been doing, then? - Where have you been?- I found something really useful.- What?
0:19:25 > 0:19:28A little survival purse.
0:19:28 > 0:19:34And when you're lost in the jungle or anywhere and you need to light a fire with things...
0:19:34 > 0:19:38- Do you think he's Ray Mears?! - We're in Kent!
0:19:38 > 0:19:40There ain't much jungle round here.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44Yeah, but if somebody buys it who travels to other parts of the world...
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- That would be really useful(!) - It would. - I see where you're coming from.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50I'm not going to argue with you, darling.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54Have you got time for this detour, Philip?
0:19:54 > 0:19:56- It's Chinese, isn't it?- Yes.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58It's a touristy sort of thing, isn't it?
0:19:58 > 0:20:01- I suppose it is. - There's not much age to it.
0:20:01 > 0:20:04- OK. So you don't like it.- No, I think that's really interesting.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- Liar!- Oh, dear!
0:20:08 > 0:20:12Overruled again, Marika! David's called time on Naomi and Peter.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16What are you going to do? There's the three items you've seen. What are you going for?
0:20:16 > 0:20:19- The silver donkey. - The silver donkey, OK.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22The silver PLATE donkey. I'll go and get it.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25- PHILIP:- What are we going to buy?
0:20:25 > 0:20:27If you think those silver bonbon dishes are good...
0:20:27 > 0:20:30- Shall I tell you what I really think?- Yeah.
0:20:30 > 0:20:34I think you've got four minutes left and you've got to buy something.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37You'll never guess what. Within seconds of me getting there,
0:20:37 > 0:20:40somebody else has bought that.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43A change of tactics. What do we do now? What do you want to buy?
0:20:43 > 0:20:46We've got the two pots left. Which do you want to go for?
0:20:46 > 0:20:49- The pepper one.- The pepper one?
0:20:49 > 0:20:51- The all-silver?- Yes.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53You come and do it this time. Come on.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58Finally, we get a quick decision out of the Reds!
0:20:58 > 0:21:00- What do you reckon? - I personally think that...
0:21:00 > 0:21:03- Do you like them?- Yeah, I do. - And do you like them, really?- Yes.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Thank you ever so much. We'll have those.
0:21:07 > 0:21:12I'm going to have to go and sit down in a darkened room somewhere cos my head is killing me.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- Do you want a bit of peace? - I think it might be quite crowded!
0:21:15 > 0:21:17- Shall we go and have a cup of tea? - Yes, yes.
0:21:17 > 0:21:22- In your case, it's a bucket of tea. - I might have a burger as well.- OK. - Yeah, that's healthy(!)
0:21:22 > 0:21:25So, an eye-mask for Philip and brews for the Blues.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28But have the Reds dithered for too long?
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Can we have the cherub one, please?
0:21:33 > 0:21:38- Is that the very best? £80? - It is.- You couldn't tuck it under, could you, please?
0:21:38 > 0:21:40- No.- 75?- No.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44- That's the very, very best. - DAVID LAUGHS
0:21:44 > 0:21:46I can see that stare!
0:21:46 > 0:21:50- No, really, 80. - OK. Thank you very much. Settle up.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54- Thank you.- With seconds to spare, the Reds have done it.
0:21:56 > 0:22:01Which is just as well, since the clock's stopped and time's up.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04The Reds got off to a weird and wonderful start
0:22:04 > 0:22:08with this 1950s plaster shop mannequin.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Naomi hated the square jardiniere,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14but David thinks it's a beautiful thing.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Finally, under pressure for a big finish,
0:22:17 > 0:22:22they settled for a late-19th-century pepper pot at £80.
0:22:22 > 0:22:28This looks like a happy team! So, how much did you spend?
0:22:28 > 0:22:32- 240.- You spent 240. Which is your favourite piece?
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Mine's got to be the pot holder - the tiles on it are nice.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40- What's your favourite piece, Naomi? - The mannequin.- Right.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43So, who's got the £60 leftover lolly?
0:22:43 > 0:22:47Thank you very much. Lovely. No need to count it. We trust you!
0:22:47 > 0:22:49There you go, David. What are you going to spend it on?
0:22:49 > 0:22:53Well, there's lots here. It's a fascinating fair.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55The choice is mine, at the end of the day,
0:22:55 > 0:23:00- so I hope I buy something really good.- Quite a responsibility. Good luck with that, David.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04Good luck, team. Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought?
0:23:04 > 0:23:08The snagged this oak-mounted hat, cloak and wig rack
0:23:08 > 0:23:11for a bargain price of £55.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16Then they fell hook, line and sinker for a painted cast-iron anchor.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Their grand finale
0:23:18 > 0:23:21came in the form of these silver, pierced bonbon dishes for £80.
0:23:23 > 0:23:25- Best buy?- The anchor.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28- Ah.- The silver.- I beg your pardon? Did I hear "anchor"?
0:23:28 > 0:23:32- You did.- Is that your prediction for the best object?- Yeah, for me.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36- The biggest profit?- The anchor. - Where are you with this, Marika?- The silver.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38- That's going to bring the biggest profit?- Yes.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42- And what did you spend collectively? - 160.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Do you have £140 for me, please?
0:23:45 > 0:23:49- Begrudgingly. - It's always very begrudgingly.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52This is quite a lot of leftover lolly, Philip.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56- It's quite a responsibility on your shoulders.- It is.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00I'm going to go and buy a real lumpy man's lot.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02We've got two lumpy men here.
0:24:02 > 0:24:07- That's what we'll go for.- That's the prediction. Stand by! You never know what you're going to get
0:24:07 > 0:24:11for your leftover-lolly buy. Good luck with that. Good luck, Phil.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15Meanwhile, I'm heading off to a castle. It's called Chiddingstone.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Chiddingstone has a rich and varied history dating back
0:24:27 > 0:24:29to the Tudor period.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32In the early 1800s, it was Gothicised
0:24:32 > 0:24:34with the addition of the castellated parts
0:24:34 > 0:24:37and the elevations that we see today.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40For most of its life, it's been a family home,
0:24:40 > 0:24:45apart from when it was used as a billet for the troops in the Second World War,
0:24:45 > 0:24:48and briefly, when it was used as a school.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51But the interesting bit of its history for us today
0:24:51 > 0:24:57dates from 1955 when it was sold to the most extraordinary character,
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Denys Eyre Bower.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Born in 1905, in Derbyshire,
0:25:03 > 0:25:07Bower was an eccentric character whose passion for antiques
0:25:07 > 0:25:12dominated his colourful life. An enthusiastic collector from a young age,
0:25:12 > 0:25:16he took advantage of the economic downturn of the 1930s
0:25:16 > 0:25:18to hunt bargains.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Despite having little money, he amassed a fine collection of antiquities,
0:25:22 > 0:25:23from India and the Far East,
0:25:23 > 0:25:30as well as treasures from ancient Egypt and the Jacobite era.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34At the age of 38, he moved to London to run his own antiques business
0:25:34 > 0:25:37in Baker Street. But in 1955,
0:25:37 > 0:25:41he was forced out of his premises by plans for a major development.
0:25:43 > 0:25:47Bower decided to look outside the city for a base
0:25:47 > 0:25:51and fetched up here at Chiddingstone.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55The house cost him £6,000,
0:25:55 > 0:25:58a sum entirely borrowed from the bank.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01He persuaded them that he would repay the loan
0:26:01 > 0:26:05out of monies that he'd charge visitors
0:26:05 > 0:26:07for coming in to look around.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10But it didn't turn out quite like that
0:26:10 > 0:26:12because he used whatever money he did make
0:26:12 > 0:26:18to feed his habit. And his habit was buying more and more antiques and antiquities.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22So the loan remained unpaid.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28Antiques weren't the only objects of beauty Bower enjoyed.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32He also had an eye for the ladies. By the time he bought Chiddingstone,
0:26:32 > 0:26:36he had a string of girlfriends and two failed marriages behind him.
0:26:36 > 0:26:42It was said that no love affair could compete with his passion for collecting.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45However, soon after he moved to Kent,
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Bower was smitten by a girl half his age
0:26:49 > 0:26:52who claimed to be called Anna Grimaldi
0:26:52 > 0:26:57and to be related to the famous Grimaldi family of Monaco.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00It came to light that she was nothing of the sort
0:27:00 > 0:27:05and her father was, in fact, a bus driver from Peckham.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08But not before things took a dramatic turn!
0:27:08 > 0:27:15After about a year, Anna announced that she wanted to break off the relationship.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18Bower was so incensed,
0:27:18 > 0:27:22he got hold of her, whipped out an antique gun,
0:27:22 > 0:27:27and shot her. Then he shot himself.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31Well, he couldn't have been a very good shot because they both survived.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36The case made national headlines.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Despite his claim that the shooting was an accident,
0:27:39 > 0:27:42and that he only meant to threaten to kill himself,
0:27:42 > 0:27:47Denys was sentenced to life imprisonment for attempted murder and suicide.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Bower's luck changed when a local solicitor
0:27:50 > 0:27:55took an interest in his case and launched a successful campaign to have him released.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59He returned to live at Chiddingstone,
0:27:59 > 0:28:02continued dealing in antiques,
0:28:02 > 0:28:04but lived here quite frugally.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07But he was happy to be back in his own home,
0:28:07 > 0:28:10surrounded by all his precious objects.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Before his death in 1977,
0:28:13 > 0:28:17he requested that the castle and collection be preserved
0:28:17 > 0:28:18for everyone to enjoy.
0:28:33 > 0:28:37Well, we've nearly trotted the length of Kent to Canterbury,
0:28:37 > 0:28:41to the Canterbury Auction Gallery, to be with our auctioneer today, Michael Roberts.
0:28:41 > 0:28:45- Good morning.- Morning, Tim. - Lovely to see you. Now, Naomi and Peter,
0:28:45 > 0:28:48their first item is this resin little boy.
0:28:48 > 0:28:53- How do you rate him? - We did have a mannequin once here before, of a woman. She had a name.
0:28:53 > 0:28:58Her name was Celia, but sadly, she didn't sell. So I don't hold much hope for him.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01- What's your estimate?- £10-£15.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04- Oh, Lord! That's a disaster. £60 he cost.- Oh, dear.
0:29:04 > 0:29:08So we're predicting a disaster there. That's not so hot.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Next is the jardiniere, which, academically,
0:29:11 > 0:29:13- is quite an interesting object, isn't it?- It is.
0:29:13 > 0:29:17The designs are by a chap called John Moyr Smith.
0:29:17 > 0:29:22He produced designs for Minton which were exhibited at the Paris Exhibition of 1878.
0:29:22 > 0:29:27So it's quite an interesting thing. Sadly, the condition isn't too good.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30- This tile here is a bit wobbly. - But three of them are sound,
0:29:30 > 0:29:32- so that's a positive.- Yeah.
0:29:32 > 0:29:38And, of course, the frame is beautifully cast with fox-hunting-related emblems.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41- It's good quality.- It's a good thing. How do you rate it?
0:29:41 > 0:29:47- The estimate is £40-£60 because of the condition. - Oh, dear! They paid £100!
0:29:47 > 0:29:50- Oh, dear. Another disaster.- Oh, no.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53Next up is the repousse-embossed little caster,
0:29:53 > 0:29:59which you could use for pepper, I suppose, but equally well, a bit of caster sugar
0:29:59 > 0:30:03- to go on the strawberries. - Absolutely. An elegant thing to do it with.- Absolutely.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06Made by the silversmith William Comyns.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10- A good-quality thing and it's in good condition. - Where are we going with this?
0:30:10 > 0:30:15There is a bit of a cache with his work, but sadly, we've only estimated at £30-£40.
0:30:15 > 0:30:17- £80 they paid.- Right.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20So, that's three disasters. We're going to need the bonus buy.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22Let's go and have a look at it.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26Now, Naomi, Peter, the leftover-lolly moment.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29You gave David Barby £60.
0:30:29 > 0:30:33- What did you spend it on, David? - Right, I hope you're going to like this.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36It is...
0:30:36 > 0:30:39a scent bottle, smelling salts bottle,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42whatever you want to put in there, on a lady's dressing table.
0:30:42 > 0:30:46It's a solid silver top, with this rather nice crystal base.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49Has a nice star-cut base, and it's hallmarked,
0:30:49 > 0:30:52which is so important. We're looking at the end of the 19th,
0:30:52 > 0:30:54beginning of 20th century. Rather nice
0:30:54 > 0:30:58- and I paid £50 for it, that's all. - Handle it, feel what it's like.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02- I thought of you.- It's a jolly nice thing. Do you like it, Naomi?- Yeah.
0:31:02 > 0:31:06- I do.- I'm not too impressed! - You're not too impressed?
0:31:06 > 0:31:09- Tell me why not!- I'm not.. I don't know, it's just...
0:31:09 > 0:31:13- It just does not feel like it's £50. - Doesn't do it for you.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16- Yeah, it's just not for me. Definitely not.- Right, thank you(!)
0:31:16 > 0:31:20- Sorry!- Now, you may have made such a splendid profit
0:31:20 > 0:31:24at that moment in time, that you don't need to bother with this.
0:31:24 > 0:31:28But your moment to pick it, if you want to, is after the sale of your first three items.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31Right, let's find out from the auctioneer what he thinks
0:31:31 > 0:31:34of David Barby's salt bottle.
0:31:34 > 0:31:38- Isn't that handsome? - It's a fantastic thing. - Feel the weight of that.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41Yes, it's a salts bottle. The stopper fits perfectly.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44Silver gilt interior, as well. Fantastic quality!
0:31:44 > 0:31:47It's a top-hole thing. What do you think that's worth?
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- Our estimate is £30-£40.- Oh, dear!
0:31:50 > 0:31:54- Really?- He paid £50 for it!- Right!
0:31:54 > 0:31:57Not having much luck today, are we? No.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00We'll have to cross our legs about that. That's it for the Red team.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03Moving on to the Blues, David and Marika.
0:32:03 > 0:32:07Their first item is this oddball
0:32:07 > 0:32:10cloak, wig, hat rack.
0:32:10 > 0:32:14It is a bit, isn't it? Strange looking thing. Interesting bit, I suppose,
0:32:14 > 0:32:17is these handlebar-shaped hooks.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19What's your theory as to what might have hung on it?
0:32:19 > 0:32:21I have to say, when cataloguing it,
0:32:21 > 0:32:25I just catalogued it as a standard hat rack.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29Thinking about it more, maybe for some legal establishment,
0:32:29 > 0:32:33- perhaps a wig and a cloak could hang on there.- Barristers' chambers.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36You want to fling off your wig and your gown,
0:32:36 > 0:32:38you fling it off on something like that,
0:32:38 > 0:32:41- till you go out and attend another case.- Seems feasible.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43- What's your estimate on it?- £20-£30.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46- Oh, dear!- So...
0:32:46 > 0:32:48- £55 they paid.- Oh, dear! Gosh!
0:32:48 > 0:32:50Sort of a pattern here, isn't there?
0:32:50 > 0:32:56I hope it's not going to repeat endlessly! What about the anchor?
0:32:56 > 0:32:57How do you rate that?
0:32:57 > 0:33:01I suppose, so long as your vessel isn't too big, it'll be perfect.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03Or you've got a seaside cottage.
0:33:03 > 0:33:08I mean, that's why people buy these old marine items.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11- How do you rate it? - £10-£15.- Oh, dear!
0:33:11 > 0:33:14- We paid £25 for it.- Right!
0:33:14 > 0:33:17So that's not so good. OK, moving on, then.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19- The bonbon dishes.- These seem to be all right.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21The hallmarks are fairly clear.
0:33:21 > 0:33:26- Estimate-wise?- Our estimate is £30-£40.- How much?
0:33:26 > 0:33:30- 30-40.- £30-£40.- For the pair? - Yes.- Right. £80!
0:33:30 > 0:33:36- Right(!) Well, hopefully they'll do better.- Absolutely!
0:33:36 > 0:33:39They'll need the bonus buy, otherwise. Let's look at it.
0:33:40 > 0:33:45Right, you two lovebirds. You spent £160. Yes?
0:33:45 > 0:33:48You gave £140 to the boy. What did you spend it on, Phil?
0:33:48 > 0:33:52Well...this. Are we ready for this?
0:33:52 > 0:33:56- I don't know.- Ready, ready? - Looks ominous.- A scale!
0:33:56 > 0:33:59- I didn't expect that. - Let me tell you what happened.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02The guy I bought them off told me they were railway scales.
0:34:02 > 0:34:07I didn't know. No idea what they were. But I think they're quite fun.
0:34:07 > 0:34:11- You imagine big sacks of potatoes... - You think spud scales?
0:34:11 > 0:34:14- Or something along that line for farmers.- I paid £60 for them
0:34:14 > 0:34:18and I just think that they do stand a chance.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22- What do you reckon they might make? - I think they could make £50-£80.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26- Yeah?- Little bit more! - It's unusual, isn't it?
0:34:26 > 0:34:29I think they like it, Phil. You are predicting a modest profit
0:34:29 > 0:34:32and you decide after the sale of your first three items.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Right, let's us find out what the auctioneer thinks about
0:34:35 > 0:34:37Phil's sack scales.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40- As if by magic, we've got some scales.- Wow!
0:34:40 > 0:34:42- Look at that!- Railway scales.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45No, they're just scales.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49- They're just scales.- Anything railway would be stamped.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52- These are sack scales. Just weighing scales.- So you go to market
0:34:52 > 0:34:55and weigh your sack of spuds? How much?
0:34:55 > 0:34:58- £20-£30, our estimate. - Philip's paid 60.
0:34:58 > 0:35:02According to the estimates, if they go with any of the bonus buys
0:35:02 > 0:35:05they're going to do badly, and according to the estimates,
0:35:05 > 0:35:09all the objects are going to go badly, so stand by for a bloodbath!
0:35:16 > 0:35:20- Naomi, Peter, how are you feeling? - Not too bad.- Slightly tense?
0:35:20 > 0:35:23- Excited.- Excited. - Looking forward to seeing them.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26Well, his estimates, in my opinion, are very low,
0:35:26 > 0:35:30on all three of these items, which is a damn shame.
0:35:30 > 0:35:34This room, you couldn't get a sheet of Bronco in, right? They're jammed in.
0:35:34 > 0:35:38Let us hope they are here for a resien mannequin, because that's the first item.
0:35:38 > 0:35:42Here we go. And here it comes.
0:35:42 > 0:35:47- Lot 20. A commission at £40. - Thank you very much.
0:35:47 > 0:35:53- 50 now, then. 50, any more bids? - Come on!- Any further offer?
0:35:53 > 0:35:58- Selling, on commission... - At £50. £50.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02Well, that's a lot better than he thought. That's minus £10.
0:36:02 > 0:36:06Victorian gilt bronze jardiniere, aesthetic design.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Who's going to start now, then, at £30?
0:36:08 > 0:36:1230, I am bid. Who's 40, now?
0:36:12 > 0:36:14£40, behind you.
0:36:14 > 0:36:1750, 60, 70, 80,
0:36:17 > 0:36:2190, 100, 10, 120, 130,
0:36:21 > 0:36:25140, 130, 140 where?
0:36:25 > 0:36:27- Who is 140? Any more bids? - Look at that!
0:36:27 > 0:36:30At 130 and selling!
0:36:30 > 0:36:32£130 is plus £30.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35That is good business, chicken!
0:36:35 > 0:36:36That's better!
0:36:36 > 0:36:39The Victorian silver pepperpot by William Collins,
0:36:39 > 0:36:41Lot 22.
0:36:41 > 0:36:45Start at £30, on commission, looking for £40. £40 where? Internet, 40?
0:36:45 > 0:36:5050? 60, Internet? 60 online.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52- It's worth more than that. - Of course it is!
0:36:52 > 0:36:56At £50! Looking for 60 on the Internet, please. Waiting for it.
0:36:56 > 0:36:5960, 70... 80, Internet.
0:37:00 > 0:37:04- Go on!- 80, Internet, waiting for it!
0:37:04 > 0:37:09Sadly, he's in Belgium, so it takes a bit of time!
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Allez!
0:37:11 > 0:37:13£80, Internet.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16- If not, £70, I sell on commission. Looking for more.- Go on!
0:37:16 > 0:37:1970 and selling. 80! 90. 90?
0:37:19 > 0:37:2190, Internet?
0:37:21 > 0:37:2580 in the room, now. 90, Internet? £90, no.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28- At 80 in the room, selling then! - Look. £80, wiped its face.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32That's OK. You are plus £20. Thank goodness for that.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35You had those rotten estimates, right, but it all came
0:37:35 > 0:37:38good in the end, which is what's so brilliant about the auction!
0:37:38 > 0:37:41- You're £20 up. Is that not good?- Very happy!
0:37:41 > 0:37:46Now, kids, what are we going to do about the bonus buy? The bottle?
0:37:46 > 0:37:51- I say we cut it there and just stick with our profits. Yeah?- Yeah.
0:37:51 > 0:37:55- £20.- We're going to leave it. - He won't take it personally.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58It's very difficult to predict.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01I mean, nobody was predicting that we'd make £20 profit.
0:38:01 > 0:38:02You've done really well with that.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06You don't have to take it, but let's see what happens. Exciting, David, hey?
0:38:06 > 0:38:09The late Victorian salts bottle,
0:38:09 > 0:38:12silver topped, good quality thing, Lot 26.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15Who's going to start me, now, £20?
0:38:15 > 0:38:19£20, salts bottle? No vapours left!
0:38:19 > 0:38:2320, 30, 40, 50,
0:38:23 > 0:38:2860, 70, 60... With you at 60, still...
0:38:28 > 0:38:33I'm looking for 70. £60... Any more?
0:38:33 > 0:38:38- At 60 and selling, now, then... - £60 is plus £10. Plus £10.
0:38:38 > 0:38:42Listen, honour is served because the Barby
0:38:42 > 0:38:46did buy a profitable bonus and he's always pleased when that happens.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48Bad luck to you for not picking it.
0:38:48 > 0:38:53But listen, plus £20 is just brilliant, based on those estimates.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56So, could be a winning score. Don't say a dickie bird to the Blues.
0:39:02 > 0:39:07- Now, David, Marika, I have just had a bit of good luck.- Did you?- Yes.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09Share it!
0:39:09 > 0:39:14The last time Bargain Hunt filmed here, in Canterbury,
0:39:14 > 0:39:17a man bought a wig stand.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20And I went up to him after the sale and said,
0:39:20 > 0:39:22"What a lovely wig stand you bought!"
0:39:22 > 0:39:26He said, "I bought it because I'm a barrister!"
0:39:26 > 0:39:30And guess what? I spotted him in the sale room! The same barrister!
0:39:30 > 0:39:32- Did you really? - And I've been up to him just now
0:39:32 > 0:39:36and said, "You've been downstairs and clocked number 42? Lot 42
0:39:36 > 0:39:39"is another wig stand!" And he said, "It never is!"
0:39:39 > 0:39:44And I just saw him beetle off downstairs, so, with any luck,
0:39:44 > 0:39:49we've got one barrister who'll be hot-to-trot for a coat and wig stand.
0:39:49 > 0:39:54- Never say that I don't help you guys!- Thank you.- Here we go, then.
0:39:54 > 0:39:5742 is the interesting hat and coat rack.
0:39:57 > 0:40:01Perhaps for a barristers' chambers? Starting at £30.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03Obviously, a barrister's seen it! £30.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06Who's 40, now, then, in the room, here?
0:40:06 > 0:40:11£40, where? 40, 50, 60, 70, no.
0:40:11 > 0:40:1560. Who's £70? Any more barristers here? £70, where?
0:40:15 > 0:40:1760, I will sell.
0:40:17 > 0:40:21- 60 and selling.- Yes! Marvellous!
0:40:21 > 0:40:25Very good! Plus £5. Good start!
0:40:25 > 0:40:3043 is the ship's anchor, painted cast iron,
0:40:30 > 0:40:33perhaps for a smaller vessel. Lot 43.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Who's going to start me at a fiver?
0:40:36 > 0:40:39£5, where? The small anchor. Five quid. £5, I'm bid.
0:40:39 > 0:40:44Small boat owner. On the Internet, £10, please.
0:40:44 > 0:40:47Internet 10. 20, even better.
0:40:47 > 0:40:53- £20, online. 30, sir, 40, Internet. - Yes!- 40, Internet.
0:40:53 > 0:40:55Seen the expectations, here.
0:40:55 > 0:40:5740, 50, no. 40, online.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59£50, where?
0:40:59 > 0:41:02Any further? £40,
0:41:02 > 0:41:05- the Internet bidder, with the small boat.- Yes!
0:41:05 > 0:41:07Well, size isn't everything!
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Anyway, plus £15. That's very nice. Now, the bonbon dishes.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13Silver bonbon dishes, good overall condition, these.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16Lot 44, who's going to start me at £30?
0:41:16 > 0:41:19£30, where? Cheap pair of silver dishes.
0:41:19 > 0:41:2330, 40, madam, 50, 60, no, 60 on the Internet.
0:41:23 > 0:41:2660 on the Internet, I have 50 in the room.
0:41:26 > 0:41:28£60 online? No.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31Who's £60, then? Any further offers?
0:41:31 > 0:41:34Still cheap, at £50 and selling...
0:41:34 > 0:41:37- How much?- £50. Minus £30.
0:41:37 > 0:41:41You had got £20, now minus £10. I can't believe that!
0:41:41 > 0:41:45- What about the railway scales? Go with them, or stick?- BOTH: Yes!
0:41:45 > 0:41:49We're going with the bonus buy. Here it comes!
0:41:49 > 0:41:53The cast iron weighing scales by Vandome and Hart.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55So if you have any handy sacks or weights,
0:41:55 > 0:41:58you need to be measured, this is the lot for you!
0:41:58 > 0:42:01- He's strange!- Settle down, Marika!- A bit of history!
0:42:01 > 0:42:06- Settle down, Marika!- £20, useful scales. 20 in the doorway.
0:42:06 > 0:42:09Who's 30, then? £30, where? Any more?
0:42:09 > 0:42:13- 40, are you sure?- Go on!
0:42:13 > 0:42:1530, 40, 50...
0:42:15 > 0:42:19£40, they're yours! At £40, and selling...
0:42:19 > 0:42:22Oh, dear! £40!
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Like I say, you're a couple of punters, and good on you!
0:42:24 > 0:42:28That's minus 20. Total, minus £30. That could be a winning score.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31- Just don't talk to the Reds. Right?- Not at all.- Thank you!
0:42:37 > 0:42:42Well, well, well, there is a chasm between our teams, today.
0:42:42 > 0:42:46It's has been the most incredibly lovely show.
0:42:46 > 0:42:49So, who's ahead and who's behind? You been checking, at all?
0:42:49 > 0:42:51- ALL: No!- Not about the score, anyway!
0:42:51 > 0:42:55I'm sorry to report that the runners-up today are the Blues.
0:42:55 > 0:43:00- ALL: Oh!- Minus £30. That's your total number.
0:43:00 > 0:43:05You went with the bonus buy and that was not such a great job, was it?
0:43:05 > 0:43:08Which is a darn shame, because you started off making good profits.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Made a fiver, £15.
0:43:10 > 0:43:15- Then those bonbon dishes just torpedoed you!- They bon-bombed!
0:43:15 > 0:43:21Marika, I'm sorry about that! Did you have a nice time?
0:43:21 > 0:43:24- Wonderful!- That's the main thing. It is lovely to see you.
0:43:24 > 0:43:27Thanks for joining the show. But today, the victors are the kids!
0:43:27 > 0:43:30Who are going to go home with £20!
0:43:30 > 0:43:33I include David Barby in the term "kids"! There you go!
0:43:33 > 0:43:39- Are you happy, Naomi?- Yes. - Jolly good! All right, Peter?- Yes!
0:43:39 > 0:43:41I am delighted for you, so delighted!
0:43:41 > 0:43:44- Join us soon, for some more bargain-hunting, yes?- ALL: Yes!
0:43:46 > 0:43:49'I know you're sitting there, thinking,
0:43:49 > 0:43:51'"I could have done better than that!"
0:43:51 > 0:43:54'Well, what's stopping you?
0:43:54 > 0:43:56'If you think you can spot a bargain,
0:43:56 > 0:43:58'go to our BBC website and apply.
0:43:58 > 0:44:00'It'll be splendid to see you!'
