0:00:04 > 0:00:07Large antiques fair? Check.
0:00:07 > 0:00:11Two teams of hopefuls with their experts? Check.
0:00:11 > 0:00:16So, what are we waiting for? Let's go bargain hunting! Yes!
0:00:41 > 0:00:46Welcome to the international antiques and collectors fair
0:00:46 > 0:00:48at the Newark and Nottingham Showground.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50This place is vast!
0:00:50 > 0:00:534,000 stalls, to be precise.
0:00:53 > 0:00:57So our teams are going to have to have their wits about them
0:00:57 > 0:00:59if they're going to succeed today.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02But it's not looking good for the Reds,
0:01:02 > 0:01:06- who seem to be trying to punch above their weight.- That's £800.
0:01:06 > 0:01:10- 675.- £1,400.- The blues are having the opposite problem.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14I've not seen anything that jumps out at me.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16Well, we'd better go and meet the teams.
0:01:17 > 0:01:23So, for the Reds today, we've got husband and wife duo, Rose and Alex.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24- Welcome.- Hello.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27And father and daughter duo, Gary and Charlie.
0:01:27 > 0:01:32- Welcome.- Thank you.- So, Rose, how did you two first meet?
0:01:32 > 0:01:37About 41 years ago, I came to England on a six-week work experience.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39I was in Oxford. Alex was doing something similar.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43He came to see me, kept coming to Malta. We wrote,
0:01:43 > 0:01:46and were married 37 years ago. And here I am.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49Well done. I see you're retired now, but what did you do for a living?
0:01:49 > 0:01:53Before that, both of us used to teach in secondary schools.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56We loved our jobs, but we wanted to retire
0:01:56 > 0:01:59when we were still on a high and we still loved the job.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Then, we had grandchildren.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03And what keeps you busy, apart from them?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06We love walking, travelling, we do scuba-diving,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08so we do a lot of travelling for that,
0:02:08 > 0:02:12and we also visit Malta, especially when it is not too hot.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Alex, you're something of an amateur photographer?
0:02:15 > 0:02:20Yes, I dabble with wet photography, splashing about with fixers, developing solutions
0:02:20 > 0:02:24and I went to digital photography, hoping to sell a few pictures and get them displayed.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26What will you be looking out for today?
0:02:26 > 0:02:32Well, I think Rose will be looking at small, attractive things,
0:02:32 > 0:02:36glass, Medina glass. I'll be looking at functional things.
0:02:36 > 0:02:37More geekish things.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42Well, good luck today indeed. Good. Now, Charlie.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- Yes?- Why did you team up today?
0:02:45 > 0:02:50Well, Dad always likes the show. He always watches it and always says, "We should go on that".
0:02:50 > 0:02:54So one day, I just decided to do it and he had no idea, whatsoever.
0:02:54 > 0:02:59- Then one day I just said, "Dad, guess what? We're going on Bargain Hunt."- And what do you collect?
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Anything with a Union Jack on it.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05My whole lounge is covered from head to toe in Union Jacks.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07What do you like to collect, Gary?
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Blue and white pottery.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13Old stuff, and Oxo tins. I've got thousands of Oxo tins.
0:03:13 > 0:03:18- Thousands.- And ceramic jars with advertising slogans on.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23- And how do you rate your chances today?- Slim, to none.- Not brilliant.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Well, I'm sure you'll do fine.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Now, the money moment. Here's your £300. £300, apiece.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33You know the rules, your experts await and off you go and very, very good luck.
0:03:35 > 0:03:39And those rules are that the teams each get £300 and an hour to shop
0:03:39 > 0:03:42for three bargains, which they later sell at auction,
0:03:42 > 0:03:46and, as usual, we have a brace of experts on hand to help out.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49For the Reds,
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Mark Stacey will be hoping to turn bargains into bucks,
0:03:53 > 0:03:54while for the Blues,
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Catherine Southon's found a novel way
0:03:56 > 0:03:59to make short work of the task ahead.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Well, guys, I was going to ask you, what's our shop income?
0:04:06 > 0:04:09I reckon with this rain coming in, we need to get in the shade.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13Is there anything in particular you desperately want to try and find?
0:04:13 > 0:04:18- I would like to look at glass, or stained glass.- OK.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- You think that's going to be good? - Yes.- What about you, Alex?
0:04:22 > 0:04:26- I was interested in technical items. - Oh, gosh, that's quite a difference.
0:04:26 > 0:04:31Gadgets versus glass? Mark, you've got your work cut out.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Charlie, Gary, this is all very exciting.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Have we got an idea of what we're going to buy today? What three things?
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- No.- No idea, right.- It could be anything that jumps out at us.
0:04:42 > 0:04:45We're going to see what we like.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49- I like that. No real game plan, just see what happens.- Yes.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53Self-professed geek Alex is already eyeing up the goods.
0:04:53 > 0:04:58- Jewellery.- Jewellery. Do you like jewellery?- I like Jewellery.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- I can't see much glass there.- No.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04No, nor can I. Pick up the pace, then, Reds.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06We need to find you glass.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11I'm not that sure about that. It's not terribly exciting.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13No, not at all exciting.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17You've got a lot of fair to get around, team.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- It's £125.- Mmm.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28- But do you like the pattern?- I like the orange, that kind of colour.
0:05:30 > 0:05:35We should buy this for Catherine on the blue team, what do you think?
0:05:35 > 0:05:38"It's not the winning' but the taking part."
0:05:38 > 0:05:40I think you're getting ahead of yourselves, Reds.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43- Which way would you like to go now? - Um...
0:05:43 > 0:05:46I think what you've got to do is just, launch.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48A-ha.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- Money box.- What about that, then?
0:05:53 > 0:05:59- I think it's reproduction. - Yes, 'Made in China' is a bit of a giveaway.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- I think that's quite a nice design. - Unusual, isn't it?
0:06:03 > 0:06:07- And it's got all the signatures. It is rather fun, isn't it?- It is.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11- And that's possibly what it was originally?- I think so, yes.
0:06:11 > 0:06:12And that's priced at 55.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16We can leave this as a reserve. If we're running out of time, we'll come back.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- Fantastic, shall we do that? - OK.- Thank you.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- I'm still not seeing any glass, Rose.- We might be back.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28It's one of those things they have outside shops.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- Put your money in the slot... That's perfect for you.- Yes.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36It is imari. Quite late, 1900 or so.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39The colours in it are subtle. They're not...
0:06:39 > 0:06:43They're subtle, but I think the collectors like the very bright colours.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- I think we can think about that. - Yes, exactly.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50We haven't got all day, teams. You need to buy something!
0:06:50 > 0:06:53I really think we should hurry. Where's Charlie?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- Probably still, still on the horse. - What about this stall?
0:06:56 > 0:07:00And I didn't mean a bacon sandwich.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05It's another factory, Tupton, which do a similar decoration.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- What do you want to do? - This table looks pretty cool.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Ah, down to business at last.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18That looks a bit classy, Catherine.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22It's quite nice, because it is stamped Asprey's of London,
0:07:22 > 0:07:24so it's quite a good maker.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27You're not terribly excited by that. I'm getting a vibe!
0:07:27 > 0:07:29We want something more exciting.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Maybe the Reds are having more luck.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37- Haven't you got a little silver candlestick and a draw of candles there?- Yes.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- That would've been just a one-off. - No, this would have been a pair.
0:07:40 > 0:07:41This would've been a pair.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45The only nice thing is it's got a Chester hallmark.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Chester's a slightly more unusual hallmark,
0:07:47 > 0:07:51which I think is going to date it at the Edwardian period.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54We're looking at something that's very much 100 years old.
0:07:54 > 0:07:58- I quite like that little Greek key pattern around there.- Yes.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01It looks in reasonable condition, but it is only one draw candle.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- It's a weighted candlestick. - Yeah, all right.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- There's no price on it, so it could be a fiver.- We could ask.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- I don't think it is, but it could be.- Yes, exactly.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13- If it is, it would be quite cheap, wouldn't it?- That's right.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Do you want ask him? Ask the nice chap?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18- How much is this, please?- £15.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22We want to make a profit, would you let me have it for £10, please?
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Please?- Because you asked nicely, I'll do it for 12.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Are we being mean, wanting it for ten?
0:08:29 > 0:08:33- It is only one, you see, that's the problem.- That's right.- Ten.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Lovely, thank you very much.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39A romantic kiss for a romantic candlestick.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41And a kiss, as well!
0:08:43 > 0:08:45I'm very impressed with you.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49You've spent £10 in ten minutes, that's £1 a minute.
0:08:49 > 0:08:54We've got £300 and I don't think we've got 300 minutes. We need to find the other two, pretty sharply.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Your arithmetic is quite right, Mark. You've got 50 minutes left, actually.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01How have the Blues used their time, so far?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04What about that? It looks like a monkey, or something.
0:09:06 > 0:09:10It's like the head of a rattle, or something, a baby's rattle.
0:09:10 > 0:09:16- It looks like it's silver. Is it a bear, or a monkey?- It is a bear.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18I think that's quite a sweet, little thing.
0:09:18 > 0:09:19Bears are collectable,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22though I still think he looks rather like a monkey!
0:09:22 > 0:09:25At the moment that's got 45 on it.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- 30?- Yes, I'll take 30 quid for it.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32I think for 30, it's difficult.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36As it is, it's not really anything, is it?
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- But it could be made into something. - Yeah.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43As a nice, little christening gift. Shall we have a think about that?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Because we're still very early in on our hour.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Would you mind if we have a little think about that?
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- I shall be holding my breath.- Thanks very much for your time, thank you.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55I thought we had one there. Chop, chop, please.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57You've got miles of stalls to trawl through today.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- That's unusual?- Gosh, it is.
0:10:02 > 0:10:03It's certainly glass!
0:10:03 > 0:10:08- It's a hanging light from the '70s, or '60s.- It's beautiful.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12- It's very heavy. It's almost like crystals of ice.- That's right.
0:10:12 > 0:10:13It's actually glass.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17I would think with the light inside, it would reflect really nicely.
0:10:17 > 0:10:22I mean, in the right areas, these are considered really stylish pieces.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24They are back in fashion, aren't they?
0:10:24 > 0:10:29- But it's got no price on it, it may be free.- That would be the day!
0:10:29 > 0:10:31- What do you think? - Let's think about it.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34OK, we're doing an awful lot of thinking.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Not lighting up their lives, that's true!
0:10:36 > 0:10:39But more buying, less thinking, please.
0:10:43 > 0:10:48- I love the shells.- They're lovely.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51- Is that gold plated, on silver? - Yes, it's gilded.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55I've not seen any thing that jumps out at me yet.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- You haven't, have you?- I've seen better quality stuff at car boots.
0:11:00 > 0:11:05Eh! Don't let the stallholders hear you say that, Gary.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- It's seen better days, hasn't it?- Yeah.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10- We've only spent £10.- Exactly.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13So we've got quite a bit of money that we can spend.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16Right, Reds, off you go, then.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17- That's £800.- Yes.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21- How much is it?- 675.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- I suppose the table is very expensive, isn't it?- £1,400.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29Thank you very much, £1,400. We've got good taste, thank you.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Expensive taste, more like!
0:11:33 > 0:11:36Just look at the size of this place.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40Surely, they can find something in all these miles of stalls.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46The trouble with these, they are very specialised and very decorative.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Has anything jumped out at the Blues?
0:11:53 > 0:11:54- Olive scoop.- Really?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Do you like an olive?- I do.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01- Would you like an olive scoop? - Not out of that, probably.- No.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03- How much?- Not at £44!
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- Nice, though, isn't it?- Mmm.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09It's got a whacking crack in it, which is a bit of a shame.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- It's rustic and its unusual. I've never seen an olive spoon before. - No, I haven't.
0:12:13 > 0:12:19- It needs to be a lot cheaper than that, though, doesn't it? What about 25?- What about 110?- No.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23- Hold on, this is not going the way we want it to go.- 35.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25I normally knock 10% off, that'll be £4.50.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- I will knock 20% off for the Blues. We like the Blues.- We do.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31CHARLIE: Do you think anyone will buy that?
0:12:31 > 0:12:36I really, really don't know. It's rustic, it's treen.
0:12:36 > 0:12:41Treen is a piece of wood that's been made into something interesting, something useful.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45- There is a crack in there. - That's what we call patina.
0:12:45 > 0:12:46That's what we call damage.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50You can fill it with chewing gum and put a bit of stain on it.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54- How about we do it for 30 and we've got a deal? - Go on, then. Twist my arm.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Are we happy with 30 for it?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- You like it. Let's do it. - I think it could go well, yeah.
0:12:59 > 0:13:04- Are you happy with that?- What the market?- Yeah.- No, the olive scoop.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07It's different. I can't see it's going to make much.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13We either go left, right or straight on,
0:13:13 > 0:13:18- bearing in mind we've only spent a tenner and time is ticking away. - I know.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21- Shall we go there?- All right.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Very decisive.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25They've spotted something already.
0:13:25 > 0:13:26What's this?
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Les Gueules Cassees.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32- It's obviously off some sort of tomb something.- Yeah.- Is the bronze?
0:13:34 > 0:13:37It certainly feels a bit like bronze, doesn't it?
0:13:37 > 0:13:40It's got the marks that show it's got a bit of copper in it.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42- It's certainly quite decorative. - I like that.
0:13:42 > 0:13:47- It's certainly has a visual, decorative appeal.- It's not the kind of thing you can buy today.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51On the internet, if somebody French knows which monument it's come off,
0:13:51 > 0:13:55or has the other part, it might well be quite a collectable item.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59- I just don't know. - Yeah.- It's marked at £35.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01I think it's going to be around £20 to £30 at auction.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04- It depends what the dealer will sell it for.- Yes.
0:14:04 > 0:14:09- What is your best price on this? - 25 is the very best.- £25.
0:14:09 > 0:14:14- What do you think about that, it's not a lot of money?- Not a lot.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18- It leaves enough for a big item. - OK, we'll go for it.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22- Let's go for it.- I think we'll take it for £25.- Thank you very much.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24So, Rose is thinking big.
0:14:24 > 0:14:25Now, where are the Blues?
0:14:26 > 0:14:28We've got 20 minutes left.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30Ah, having a team talk.
0:14:30 > 0:14:35- We've got one item. Do you want to think about the bear?- Yeah.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38You're a bit reluctant, I can feel it, Charlie?
0:14:38 > 0:14:43- I quite like the monkey bear. The monkey...- Are you sure?- ..thing.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47- I think we really like them for 25, don't we?- Yeah.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50Maybe we can twist her arm a little bit.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53- Do you to want to go and have a little...- Yeah, I think so.
0:14:53 > 0:14:58- ..persuasive talk with her? - Knock her down a bit more.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00- And I'll just hang around here and see what I can find.- OK.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03I think Gary's got a bit of drive
0:15:03 > 0:15:06and I think he probably will get that bear for 25.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09He's going to haggle with her. He knows what he wants.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11That's what I like about him and he will get it.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Go for it, Gary.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Hello, again.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16It's still there.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18We're going to buy the monkey/bear after all.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21What did you say?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- We said 35, didn't we?- 25?- 30.
0:15:24 > 0:15:2830 I'd be absolutely happy with.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30Yeah, OK. 30.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32Is that it, then?
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- 30 quid seems to be the order of the day.- Yeah.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40We've got loads of money left, haven't we?
0:15:40 > 0:15:42- Let's find something else for 30 quid.- Yeah.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47£30? You've got to speculate to accumulate, Gary, old fruit.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51We've got ten minutes left. We need to get a move on.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- We need to try and find this item, all right?- Yeah.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00- Right, I'm getting a bit worried now.- Yeah, I am.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02So you should be.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Anything grabbing you?
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Apart from the time, that is!
0:16:13 > 0:16:16I'm glad someone's keeping an eye on the time.
0:16:16 > 0:16:21I'm starting to worry about you. That's a made-up piece of junk.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22Junk is the word.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24- The hanging light.- The hanging light.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28I can't remember where it was. Let's go and find it.
0:16:28 > 0:16:29Let's go and find it.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Five minutes to go, teams.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Desperate times call for desperate deals.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37We've been here before, you know.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- It is quite funky. - Yeah. It's unusual.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44Is this yours?
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- If you can tell us the price.- 120.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Do remember the photo frame that we looked at earlier, the Asprey.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54It's got the same initials on. It's stamped underneath.
0:16:54 > 0:17:00It is beautiful quality, but I just think, £200...
0:17:00 > 0:17:02- That's a lot of money for that.- Yes.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04What is the best price that you'll give us for that?
0:17:04 > 0:17:07I'll do 115, if it'll help you.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09115?
0:17:09 > 0:17:12If you want my honest opinion, sorry, we have run out of time.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14It's going to struggle.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19I think, in the general sale, it's going to...we'll be lucky if we get 40 or 50 quid for it.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21I might be wrong.
0:17:21 > 0:17:22I think you might be right.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24It's beautifully faceted.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28It's lovely. It's hallmarked and it all matches, presumably.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31190 is the very best I can do.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35- Can we do it 170 and we'll go for it?- No.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37175, you said.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41- Your choice, my love.- Yes, go on.
0:17:41 > 0:17:42Seconds to go.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47We've run out of time, it's 115. I'm sorry.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Yes, I think we'll have to go for it. It's something we like.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51And we'll pray before the auction.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55Oh, looks as if the teams have finished.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57Just as well, because time's up!
0:17:57 > 0:18:02But there's still time for a quick reminder of what they've bought.
0:18:02 > 0:18:07The Reds got all het up about a silver candlestick at £10.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11They took a chance on a French memorial plaque for £25.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16And, back where they started, in a desperate last dash,
0:18:16 > 0:18:20Rose got her glass lamp fitting for £115.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23What do you think is going to bring the biggest profit?
0:18:23 > 0:18:27I think the silver candlestick, which we bought for £10.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31It's going to bring in the biggest percentage profit, I think.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34Percentage profit, you must remember that.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- How much did you spend all round? - £150.- Did you? A good number.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42- £150 of leftover lolly, please, somewhere.- There you are.
0:18:42 > 0:18:45Thank you, very much. That goes across to the maestro.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Well, maestro, what are you going to spend it on?
0:18:48 > 0:18:51I don't know, it's quite a lot of money, Tim. 150 quid.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- I'll find something special. - Thank you.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Good luck with that. Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought?
0:18:58 > 0:19:02The Blues were lukewarm on the beach, with the olive spoon for £30.
0:19:02 > 0:19:07They were a little warmer about the silver cast teddy bear,
0:19:07 > 0:19:09for another £30. But, not much!
0:19:09 > 0:19:13They pulled out all the stops for the Asprey silver-gilt hip flask.
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Oh, yes, at a whopping £180!
0:19:16 > 0:19:20You should go for a hip flask with something spiritual in it.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22You're looking freezing.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Now, tell me how did you get on, Charlie?
0:19:24 > 0:19:28- I think we did really well, like the best you've ever seen.- Really?- Yes.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31- How much did you spend?- 240.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33Can I have £60 of leftover lolly, please?
0:19:33 > 0:19:37- There you go.- Thank you very much. 60 smackers going to Catherine.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41- What are you going to do with that? - I don't know, but I'm buying it quickly before I freeze.
0:19:41 > 0:19:46Quite right, too! Meanwhile, we're heading off somewhere absolutely sublime.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52Stoneleigh Abbey is Warwickshire was built on the site
0:19:52 > 0:19:54of a 12th-Century Cistercian monastery.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59The original manor house was built in 1561 by Thomas Leigh.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03150 years later, the third Lord Leigh,
0:20:03 > 0:20:07on his return from his Italian Grand Tour decided
0:20:07 > 0:20:12to have a huge extension built, in the form of this imposing West Wing.
0:20:12 > 0:20:18It was completed in 1726 and is, of course, the grand entrance.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28In the middle of the 18th century, the Leigh family decided
0:20:28 > 0:20:34that they wanted to jolly up this already incredibly impressive,
0:20:34 > 0:20:40large entrance hall and they employed a series of stuccoists -
0:20:40 > 0:20:46plaster worker - to create some reliefs that celebrated
0:20:46 > 0:20:48the life of Hercules.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51The main feature is the central scene,
0:20:51 > 0:20:53showing the ascent of Hercules to Mount Olympus.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57Hercules, with his lionskin, kneels before Jove,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00with other heavenly figures looking on,
0:21:00 > 0:21:03including Mercury, Mars and Venus.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Originally, Cupid appeared out of the clouds at the bottom,
0:21:07 > 0:21:11but the ceiling was irreparably damaged by a catastrophic fire
0:21:11 > 0:21:15in the West Wing in 1960 and he was lost forever.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21The six ovals that run roughly around on the top of the doors
0:21:21 > 0:21:24represent the Labours of Hercules.
0:21:24 > 0:21:29But the panel that is my favourite is this fellow over here.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34Here we've got a rectangular tablet, moulded in relief
0:21:34 > 0:21:38and strategically placed above one of the grand fireplaces
0:21:38 > 0:21:42down at this end of the entrance hall.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Now Hercules is relaxing up, underneath the tree,
0:21:45 > 0:21:50and he is leaning on the most enormous club.
0:21:50 > 0:21:55There is a girl lying provocatively on her side
0:21:55 > 0:21:59and she is gesturing in a suggestive and tempting way,
0:21:59 > 0:22:03offering him an opportunity to come down this gentle slope
0:22:03 > 0:22:08to that rather nice-looking palace at the bottom,
0:22:08 > 0:22:10where there is a swimming pool and plenty to drink
0:22:10 > 0:22:12and a disco later.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17The girl on the left, however, is a different kettle of fish.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21She has got all her kit on. In fact, she's ready to go
0:22:21 > 0:22:22and wearing a helmet.
0:22:22 > 0:22:28She's pointing up the hill, a steep climb to a temple at the top,
0:22:28 > 0:22:33where there is absolutely nothing to drink and no fun going on.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36And this is Hercules's dilemma.
0:22:36 > 0:22:42Does he go with the girl who represents sloth and wanton
0:22:42 > 0:22:46behaviour, or does he go with the girl that represents virtue?
0:22:46 > 0:22:52If you look at Hercules's face, he is enigmatic.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55We cannot tell which way he is going to turn.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Such is the human condition.
0:22:57 > 0:23:02What a brilliant job the plasterers have done.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06You can see the areas of the tree, with all those
0:23:06 > 0:23:11frilly bits of leafage, which stick out from the surface.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16It is effective, because it's a piece of sculpture that stands
0:23:16 > 0:23:18proudly from the surface of the wall.
0:23:19 > 0:23:24The depth and contrast of those surfaces
0:23:24 > 0:23:26enable you to see the scene itself.
0:23:26 > 0:23:31All in all, this thing is a tour de force.
0:23:31 > 0:23:36That's before we examine these two babies at the bottom.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39This is what you call a caryatid.
0:23:39 > 0:23:44Actually, the tapering block underneath is called a term
0:23:44 > 0:23:50and the caryatid bit is the humanoid form at the top,
0:23:50 > 0:23:52which is, of course, Hercules.
0:23:52 > 0:23:58His emblem, if you like, is this skin of a lion.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01And why was Hercules wearing this lionskin?
0:24:01 > 0:24:06Well, it's there to help him preserve his strength.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10The big question is today, of course, for our teams over at the auction,
0:24:10 > 0:24:12how much strength are they going to need?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16What do you think, Herc?
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Not a lot! But, our teams' lots are going before the bidders of Derbyshire
0:24:20 > 0:24:23today at Hanson's auctioneers.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Well, we've relocated to the hamlet of Mackworth,
0:24:27 > 0:24:31on the outskirts of Derby to be with Charles Hanson at his sale.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- Lovely, Charles.- Hello, Tim.- Very nice to be back.- Great to have you.
0:24:34 > 0:24:39Rose and Alex, their first item is the dwarf, silver candlestick.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Tim, it's pretty, it's loaded, it's beautifully cast
0:24:43 > 0:24:47with Greek key ornament, but importantly, it isn't Birmingham, it's not Sheffield.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- It's hallmarked Chester. - What's the hallmark date?- 1906.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55At auction it ought to make, because it is Chester, between £30 and £40.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58- Do you know, they paid £10 for it. - £10, that's nothing.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01It just shows there's a bargain or two at those fairs.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04- It's silver, Tim, it's Chester. - There you go. Solid silver job.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Your estimate is 30 to 40. That is an extremely encouraging start.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11- Great, Tim, delighted.- Lovely.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13I fear it goes downhill a bit, thereafter.
0:25:13 > 0:25:20- We've got this bronze plaque fellow, which is a spray of olive.- Yes.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22We've got the emblem of peace.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26How this thing came to be in a fair and is being sold, I don't know.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29It's something which has great sentiment. It's hard to value.
0:25:29 > 0:25:35- I don't think it has much commercial appeal to collectors. - That is the problem, isn't it?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Mark you, our team simply acquired it for £25.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41How do you see it value-wise in the auction, Charles?
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Tim, to a collector of that military background,
0:25:44 > 0:25:46it has got a great appeal still.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48- Between £30 and £40. - That's optimistic, too.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52What about the hanging shade. This is spectacular, isn't it?
0:25:52 > 0:25:58Tim, I love that. I think it's something which, when I first saw it, I thought, it's modern.
0:25:58 > 0:26:03It must be new. It's not, it's period Italian 1960s, at the very best.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07You go to some wonderful London retail stores
0:26:07 > 0:26:10and that could happily be £400.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13- We have to think brave about this. - We do, Tim.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17I was going to be quite conservative, but it is such a good period piece
0:26:17 > 0:26:19and a great feature for a home.
0:26:19 > 0:26:20- I'm going to be quite strong. - Are you?
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- And quite...- Brave.- ..brave.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27- Good.- And say between £80 and £120. - I think you're spot on.
0:26:27 > 0:26:32- They paid £115.- Good. - We're absolutely in the same ballpark.- Good, I'm pleased.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34It just depends on who's around, doesn't it, as per usual?
0:26:34 > 0:26:38- Yes, it could be a high return or a pretty big fall, Tim, I think.- Yes.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41If it's a big return, they're not going to be fussed.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45If it's not, they are going to need their bonus buy. So, let's go and have a look at it.
0:26:45 > 0:26:50Rose and Alex, this is exciting, isn't it? Leftover lolly.
0:26:50 > 0:26:55You spent 150. You gave that lovely Mark Stacey £150.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57What did the genius spend it on?
0:26:57 > 0:27:00I wanted to spend quite a lot of money, because I thought £150 wasn't a lot.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03- It doesn't look very much, does it? - Looks like a box to me!
0:27:03 > 0:27:08A really, grotty old box, but actually, when you open it up.
0:27:08 > 0:27:12- I'll help you with this.- Thank you very much, Tim.- Look at that.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15- Come on, Rose, come and have a look. - Come and have a look, Rose.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18You see, you've got a little desk stand here.
0:27:18 > 0:27:22This, I think, slides up like that. Then you lower it.
0:27:22 > 0:27:24- Oh!- You've got a sort of,
0:27:24 > 0:27:29almost like a travelling campaign, or travelling filing system.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32- I thought it was rather interesting. - I think it's marvellous.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36I mean, when you look at the back it's all nicely polished, look.
0:27:36 > 0:27:41So, the thing is made to be freestanding in some way, shape or form.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45It is, Tim. I really don't know what it was made for but I can tell you,
0:27:45 > 0:27:47- because I know you are dying to know.- Yes, how much?
0:27:47 > 0:27:51- I didn't spend quite all your money, but I spent £130 on it.- OK.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54How much do you think it's going to get at auction?
0:27:54 > 0:27:58I think it would be estimated something like 100 to 150.
0:27:58 > 0:28:03It's good. It's lovely. We like it. It's very nice.
0:28:03 > 0:28:07You don't pick it now, you pick it after the sale of your first three items,
0:28:07 > 0:28:10- but it's a very interesting object. - Thank you, Tim.- Well done.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13And, for the audience at home, we'll find out what the auctioneer
0:28:13 > 0:28:15thinks about the mobile filing cabinet.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19OK, Charles, what do you make of this fellow?
0:28:19 > 0:28:23These sliding out tin shelves, you wonder what was its purpose?
0:28:23 > 0:28:28Was it for stationery, was it for letters? I can't quite work it out.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32No, it has the feel of something that might have come from the Second World War period
0:28:32 > 0:28:36- and it's a travelling thing, because you can fold it all up.- Of course.
0:28:36 > 0:28:40Perhaps military, for doing all the filing in these metal trays.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44- The quality is quite nice. The satin birch lining, which it might be, is nice.- Yes.
0:28:44 > 0:28:49It's well made, well constructed. I can see someone taking it home
0:28:49 > 0:28:52and maybe putting their collection of snuff boxes or something in there
0:28:52 > 0:28:55and really admiring them, now and again, peeking at them.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58Let's hope you'll be able to find a home for it. How much is it worth?
0:28:58 > 0:29:03It's unusual, Tim, so we put a guide price on it of £100 to £150.
0:29:03 > 0:29:07That old, cunning monkey, Stacey, he only paid 130, bless him.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11- Yeah, that's a good price. - He sees profit in it. Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:29:11 > 0:29:15Now we move on to something completely different with the Blues,
0:29:15 > 0:29:19Gary and Charlie. First item is their olive scoop.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21I think it's made of beech and it's beautifully turned.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24It has got some age, you can see on the rim
0:29:24 > 0:29:27and the handle has got a good degree of patination.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30- Yes.- So it's not made yesterday. - It's not worth a lot.- No, Tim.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34I've been quite mean and lean at between £20 and £30.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36I think I'd follow you there. £30, they paid,
0:29:36 > 0:29:38- which, I feel, is plenty.- Good.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41Now this little teddy bear is sweet, isn't it?
0:29:41 > 0:29:45Tim, the bear is ever so sweet. It's beautifully finished.
0:29:45 > 0:29:49It's got great depth of detail about it. I'm sure it's silver,
0:29:49 > 0:29:50but it isn't hallmarked.
0:29:50 > 0:29:54Looking at the depth of patination, the dirt in the crevices,
0:29:54 > 0:29:58under the arms and in between the legs of this bear,
0:29:58 > 0:29:59- it's got some age, Tim.- Yeah.
0:29:59 > 0:30:03- I think it's 1900, don't you? - Yes, exactly, Edwardian.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06- What's it worth?- Because it's unmarked, I'm being quite cautious,
0:30:06 > 0:30:09but I think it will sell, for its teddy bear appearance,
0:30:09 > 0:30:13- between £20 and £30, but could make £40.- Brilliant! They paid 30.- OK.
0:30:13 > 0:30:14- That's about right.- Good.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18- Now your favourite, Charles. - Oh, Tim.- A drinking flask.
0:30:18 > 0:30:23When we look at factors affecting value, we think of quality. This really has all the quality about it.
0:30:23 > 0:30:28It's silver-gilt, fully hallmarked, with the lovely silver-gilded sleeve.
0:30:28 > 0:30:32- Lovely turned lid.- Ready to go? - It's wonderful.
0:30:32 > 0:30:38- How much?- I'm sure it will make probably between 150 and 240.
0:30:38 > 0:30:40- That's my thought. - It needs to make 180.- OK.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44- I can tip you the wink there. - OK, Tim.- The challenge is on.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47If you fail, they'll need their bonus buy.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49So, smartish, let's go and have a look at it.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52- Now, Gary, Charlie, this is exciting, isn't it?- Yes.
0:30:52 > 0:30:57The leftover lolly moment. You gave Catherine 60 smackers.
0:30:57 > 0:31:02- Catherine, what did you spend it on? - I bought - da-da! - this.
0:31:02 > 0:31:09- A bit of novelty silver.- OK. - I bought this as a money clip.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13But it could be a paperclip of some description,
0:31:13 > 0:31:16in the form of a wishbone.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19I thought that was quite novel, quite interesting.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- How much did you pay for it? - I paid £48.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25That seems sort of cheap and exotic, doesn't it?
0:31:25 > 0:31:30It's 1905. I thought it was quite an interesting little thing.
0:31:30 > 0:31:34How much do you think that will actually realise at auction?
0:31:34 > 0:31:39- I would like to think we've got a £10-£20 profit there.- Unusual.
0:31:39 > 0:31:44- Yeah.- Go with your bow tie, Charlie. That's a cheeky chappie, that is.
0:31:44 > 0:31:48Let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's little wishbone.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51- Charles, this could be your lucky moment.- Tim, it could be.
0:31:51 > 0:31:56- It's a wishbone, isn't it? - It certainly is.- Cast almost with this clip on this mount.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58It's London, 1905.
0:31:58 > 0:32:02It'd be on the table. You'd pick that up to put your letters underneath,
0:32:02 > 0:32:05- I think it's clever old Catherine, don't you?- I think so.- She paid £48.
0:32:05 > 0:32:10- Do you rate it at all? - I would value it between £30 and £50.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13Fair enough. We're in the same ballpark, aren't we?
0:32:13 > 0:32:15- Are you taking the sale?- I am. - Good, we're in safe hands.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- Thank you, Charles.- Thanks, Tim.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27- So, Rose and Alex, are you feeling confident?- Definitely.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30You paid £10 for the silver candlestick, right?
0:32:30 > 0:32:34How you found that for £10 we can't work out. Here it comes.
0:32:34 > 0:32:37Showing for you there, Chester silver.
0:32:37 > 0:32:43Hallmarked for you there, 1908, with a lovely Greek key cast base.
0:32:43 > 0:32:48I'm only bid £20. I'll take 2 for the Chester, silver stick. Come on!
0:32:48 > 0:32:5220, I'll take 2 now. It's worth that. 2, 5, 8, 30.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55Oh, come on. Chester. 35, 40. One more.
0:32:55 > 0:32:5740, I'll take, sir.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00All hands, 40 and 5. 50, 5.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02One more. It wants a good home.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04It's lonely.
0:33:04 > 0:33:0850, I'll take 5 now. All out, I'll take one more, sir.
0:33:08 > 0:33:125. One more for good luck? "No", he says. 50, I'll take 5 now.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15You're all out beside me. £50. Going, all-out.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18At £50, going, going, gone.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20- Yes!- Well done!
0:33:20 > 0:33:23- It's so exciting.- Isn't it?
0:33:23 > 0:33:25Well done. Well done, that girl!
0:33:27 > 0:33:29- That's £40.- That's good.
0:33:29 > 0:33:31HE WHISPERS
0:33:31 > 0:33:32Right, now the memorial plaque.
0:33:32 > 0:33:34Where do we start this?
0:33:34 > 0:33:37Do I see £20, please?
0:33:37 > 0:33:39£20, do I see?
0:33:39 > 0:33:4220, I'll take. Do I see £20?
0:33:42 > 0:33:45Its history before you. 20, I'll take. I'm bid 20.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48I'll take 2 now! Come on! 20, I'll take 2 now.
0:33:48 > 0:33:512, 5, 8, 30.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53- Ah-ha.- 32, 35.
0:33:53 > 0:33:57One more. No more? You're in for £32.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Do I see 5 now? Come on!
0:34:00 > 0:34:02I'll take one more, if it helps you, sir. £32.
0:34:02 > 0:34:06Its bronze, it's solid and I'll take 5 now. All out at £30.
0:34:06 > 0:34:07Yes.
0:34:07 > 0:34:105, 40, 5?
0:34:10 > 0:34:12The lady in red. Look at me.
0:34:12 > 0:34:13LAUGHTER
0:34:13 > 0:34:17Are you sure? One more for good luck. No.
0:34:17 > 0:34:1940, I'll take 5 now.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Are you sure? Fair warning, we are going at £40.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24Going once, going twice...
0:34:24 > 0:34:27All out at £40 and selling it. Going, gone.
0:34:27 > 0:34:32- That's it. You have £15 on that. - Excellent.- So you are £55 up.
0:34:32 > 0:34:36You have a profit on two items. Will you get a profit on the third?
0:34:36 > 0:34:38There it is, it really does look the part.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41And I'm only bid here £40. I'm only bid £40.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43I'll take 5 for it now.
0:34:43 > 0:34:48Very stylish, I'll take 5 now. Come on! 40, I'll take 5 for it now.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51- Oh, dear.- £40, do I see 5 now? - This isn't good.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54At £40. I'll take 5, come on!
0:34:54 > 0:34:5640, I'll take one more.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59- Ouch!- 40, all done. All out... - I don't like the look of this.
0:34:59 > 0:35:05- ..beside me, and around me. I'll take £45. Selling it at £40.- Oh!
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Yes, we are. Going, going, going, gone!
0:35:08 > 0:35:12- That is minus £75. That is a blow, isn't it?- You were right.
0:35:12 > 0:35:13LAUGHTER
0:35:15 > 0:35:19It is no laughing matter. It might be a joke to you!
0:35:19 > 0:35:24For our team, it's a disgrace. Anyway, minus £75.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26You had £55 and now you are minus 20.
0:35:26 > 0:35:30- Such is the helter-skelter of life.- Yes.
0:35:30 > 0:35:35What are we going to do about this military campaign cabinet?
0:35:35 > 0:35:39- Go for it.- Yes, go for it. - You have got nerves of steel.
0:35:39 > 0:35:43You've been right up there, you've been right down there
0:35:43 > 0:35:46and you are going to be go for the bonus buy? That takes...
0:35:46 > 0:35:48- IN FRENCH ACCENT:- ..courage.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51Courage, beyond the call of duty.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54You trust Mark Stacey. Here we go.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58- What did I do?- You're going with the bonus buy. The decision is made.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00Merveilleux!
0:36:00 > 0:36:01There we are.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05Hinged, satin birch front, revealing 17 wonderful metal shelf tiers
0:36:05 > 0:36:09for your stationery, or you could convert it into whatever you like.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11I will start this at £100.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15- Oh, good.- You've all seen it. Do I see 110, please? At £100 now.
0:36:15 > 0:36:20Do I see 110? I'm going to go at £100. Do I see £110 now. Come on!
0:36:20 > 0:36:24- At £100. My bid. Do I see 110? - Oh, please.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27120, 130. 140, I'm bid.
0:36:27 > 0:36:30140, I'm bid. Do I see 145?
0:36:30 > 0:36:33140 I'm bid, do I see 145? Come on!
0:36:33 > 0:36:35At 140, I'll take 145, sir.
0:36:35 > 0:36:40One more? "No" he says. All out? We sell on commission.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44Going, all done, at £140.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47There it is. That is a profit of £10.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49You have a £10 profit on that
0:36:49 > 0:36:51which means, your overall state of play,
0:36:51 > 0:36:57after this extraordinary series of joys and disasters, is...
0:36:57 > 0:36:59- minus £10.- That's not too bad.
0:36:59 > 0:37:00It's not too bad.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03- Anyway, don't say a word to the Blues.- Right.
0:37:08 > 0:37:11- Listen, have you been talking to the Reds?- No.
0:37:11 > 0:37:15- Certainly not.- Do you know how they did?- No.- That's right, we don't want you to.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17This room is crowded.
0:37:17 > 0:37:22If there's one person who will auction your goods to best advantage it will be Charles Hanson.
0:37:22 > 0:37:27If the worst comes to the worst, you've got the wishbone clip.
0:37:27 > 0:37:30Anyway, your first item is the olive scoop.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32Do I see £15, start me off. Come on.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Let's see £15 now, surely.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- I'm bid £15.- Yes!- Straight in.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40Do I see 18 now? Come on! At £15, where's 18 now?
0:37:40 > 0:37:42At 15, let's see 18... 18.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44- 20, 2.- Get in there.
0:37:44 > 0:37:475, 8... One more.
0:37:47 > 0:37:5128, 30? Are you sure, sir? No more.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54At £28 we're going once, going twice,
0:37:54 > 0:37:57- Gone!- How much did we get?- 28.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00Back luck, team, minus £2. It could have been a lot worse.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Here comes the teddy bear.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05Early 20th century, he wants a good home.
0:38:05 > 0:38:07He really does.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Do I see £15 for him? He probably is silver.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11£15, surely.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13£15, do I see? Look at him, the bear.
0:38:13 > 0:38:1515, 18, 20, I'm out.
0:38:15 > 0:38:1720, I'll take 2 now. Come on!
0:38:17 > 0:38:2020, I'll take 2 for a sweet bear. Come on!
0:38:20 > 0:38:23- 2, 5, 8...- They like him. - Not exactly.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- He's late Victorian, sir. - Go, go, go.- Edwardian, even.
0:38:26 > 0:38:30- "No" he says. At £25...- Oh, no. - He's got to go.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31He's got to go.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34At £25, he really has to go. 28?
0:38:34 > 0:38:36- Why not?- Hurray!- It's closer.
0:38:36 > 0:38:3832? Look at me. No?
0:38:38 > 0:38:40Do it, mate. £2.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43All out? 30, I'll take 2 now. Fair warning.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45I'll take one more. At £30. Sold!
0:38:45 > 0:38:49Wiped it's face. Very good. Wiped it's face.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51There's no profit, no loss. No pain, no shame.
0:38:51 > 0:38:55If you want a fabulous hip flask, here is one.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58Edwardian. It's silver gilt, glass mounted,
0:38:58 > 0:39:01London 1905, it's silver gilt.
0:39:01 > 0:39:05- I'm bid £100 straight in.- Oh! - £100.- Nice start.
0:39:05 > 0:39:10- Do I see 110 now?- 110, 120, 130... Go on!- 140, 150.
0:39:10 > 0:39:17- 160, 170. I've got 160, 17, 18, 19, two...- You're in profit!
0:39:17 > 0:39:21- 210. I'm bid 210.- So good!- Come on! - It is really beautiful.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25Do I see 220? Come on! Silver-gilt Asprey.
0:39:25 > 0:39:30I'll take now 220. Going once... I'll take 220. Going twice.
0:39:30 > 0:39:36- And we sell it at £210. All done. - Yes!
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Bingo!
0:39:38 > 0:39:40LAUGHTER
0:39:40 > 0:39:43- You are plus £28.- Wonderful. - Which is really super.
0:39:43 > 0:39:48- What you are you going to do about this money clip? - Oh, we're going to go for it.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51The decision is made. We're going with the bonus buy. Here it is.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55Very, very nice, in the form of a wishbone, it's extremely novel,
0:39:55 > 0:39:58and I'm sure you'll agree, very attractive.
0:39:58 > 0:40:01It's London, it's 1905 and we like it, it's a wonderful thing.
0:40:01 > 0:40:07Start me off. Do I see £25? 25, eight, 30, two, five, eight, 40.
0:40:07 > 0:40:12One more? No. Come on, it's a really novel thing, it's lucky.
0:40:12 > 0:40:1745... 40, I'll take. One more? No, he says.
0:40:17 > 0:40:20- 40, I'll take two now, come on. - Please!
0:40:20 > 0:40:2540 I'm bid. Do I see two for good luck? Five, eight for good luck. 50.
0:40:25 > 0:40:29- You're in profit. Yes! - Two, five...
0:40:29 > 0:40:31It could be yours with a bit of luck. No more?
0:40:31 > 0:40:3455, yes or no? No.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37All done to you, sir, at £52. I'll take one more.
0:40:37 > 0:40:42Come on! All out, fair warning. Going, going. Gone to you.
0:40:42 > 0:40:48Well, well, well. That is something else, isn't it? That was £52, yes?
0:40:48 > 0:40:53You are plus four on your bonus buy. Well done, Catherine. Nothing the matter with that.
0:40:53 > 0:40:57- Overall, you are plus £32, which could be a winning score. - Oh, obviously!
0:40:57 > 0:41:02Could be a winning score. Don't talk to the Reds. All will be revealed in a moment.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10Well, haven't we been lucky today?
0:41:10 > 0:41:16Two stellar, successful and dynamic teams sharing the stage.
0:41:16 > 0:41:20- Been chatting with one another?- No. - You don't know where you stand?- No.
0:41:20 > 0:41:23Well, one of the teams today had a bit of bad luck.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26Actually, both teams went with their bonus buy
0:41:26 > 0:41:28and scored a substantial profit from that.
0:41:28 > 0:41:32So the experts can walk tall, which is lovely.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36Just one team had an unfortunate slip up, with a glassy thing.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39And the team that slipped up with that, sadly, will suffer,
0:41:39 > 0:41:43because they are the runners-up today - and it is the Reds.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47It was that wretched thing, wasn't it?
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Minus £75 just scuppered you.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52You had a profit of 40, you had a profit of 15.
0:41:52 > 0:41:56You were cruising so beautifully and that light fitting let you down.
0:41:56 > 0:42:01- We should have listened to Mark. - Well, whatever it is, hindsight is a fine job.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04But I must say I thought it was a great fitting myself.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07I can see it making a lot of money somewhere else, another day.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Still, so bad luck. You came really, really close.
0:42:10 > 0:42:13But you've sadly fallen at that fence.
0:42:13 > 0:42:15Never mind, better luck next time.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18But the victors today - Gary, Charlie -
0:42:18 > 0:42:21- you're going to be going home with £32.- Wooh!
0:42:21 > 0:42:25- Yes! There's your £30.- Yeah! - Yes, you are pleased with this, aren't you?
0:42:25 > 0:42:29- Yes!- £32.- Thank you. - Nice profit out of the money clip.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31Well done, Catherine, for that.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35Then you got that £30 profit on the hip flask, which was fab, wasn't it?
0:42:35 > 0:42:37- Well done, Papa G. - Well done, Papa G!
0:42:37 > 0:42:41- How are you going to spend your money, Gary. Are you going to take her out for a drink?- No!
0:42:41 > 0:42:46- Oh.- Oh!- Are you are going to take ME out for a drink? - He is, yes.- If you like!
0:42:46 > 0:42:49I don't know how you're going to split it, but I hope you enjoy it.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51We've loved having you on the show.
