0:00:09 > 0:00:12For the first time in the history of mankind,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15we have come down under to Australia.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18So let's go bargain hunting, yeah!
0:00:40 > 0:00:43In our quest to track down the very best bargains,
0:00:43 > 0:00:47we've travelled 10,500 miles to Australia.
0:00:47 > 0:00:53Just a short tram ride away from central Melbourne is the bustling suburb of Prahran.
0:00:53 > 0:00:59And it's here that we find the fun and eclectic Chapel Street Bazaar.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04Here's a quick peek at what's bizarre up at the bazaar.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Red team sisters, Ariel and Melanie,
0:01:07 > 0:01:09won't take no for an answer.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Really, the most we can pay is 200. That's our bottom line.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14We really need that for 200.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18- That's my bottom line. I'm not going any higher. - 40, and we've got a deal.- No.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22And the Blues, Sydney-based friends, Rod and Drew, know what they like...
0:01:22 > 0:01:26He's kitsch, he's orange, he's flamboyant. He's us.
0:01:26 > 0:01:31- ..and will do anything to get it. - Oh, deary dear! My children!
0:01:33 > 0:01:35That's all still to come.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39But because we're in Oz, we've swapped pounds for dollars.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43500 of them. But otherwise, the rules remain the same.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Each team has one hour to shop for three items,
0:01:46 > 0:01:48which they sell later at auction
0:01:48 > 0:01:51and the team wins that makes the most profit.
0:01:51 > 0:01:56You got all that? Strewth! Anyway, let's go and meet today's teams.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- Ariel and Melanie. Welcome, girls.- Hello.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03You have a great interest in Bargain Hunt,
0:02:03 > 0:02:07as I can see from your rather cheeky knitted bowtie.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08- Yes.- Both of you? - We love Bargain Hunt.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12We love Bargain Hunt. We watch it pretty much every day,
0:02:12 > 0:02:15so when I was sitting on the couch and you suddenly came on
0:02:15 > 0:02:19and said, "We're coming to Australia," I started to scream.
0:02:19 > 0:02:20- Did you?- In excitement, yes.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24And Melanie looked at me like I was going completely over the top.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27I applied right away and luckily, we got on. So we're very excited.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Well, we're very, very excited to have you both with us.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Ariel, what do you do for a living, darling?
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Well, I'm currently studying to be a teacher.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38I graduate at the end of this year.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Mel, what do you do for a living, darling?- I'm a librarian.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44And I really love books and I love that it's a chilled out
0:02:44 > 0:02:46and peaceful environment that the library gives you.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48What sort of books do you like?
0:02:48 > 0:02:53I like the Count Of Monte Cristo and old 18th-century books.
0:02:53 > 0:02:58- And what do you enjoy collecting? - We collect strange clothes.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01We have a passion for Japan, so we've got maid costumes,
0:03:01 > 0:03:04bear costumes, anime costumes.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05Have you ever been to Japan?
0:03:05 > 0:03:08- No, I haven't, but Ariel has a couple of times.- Have you?
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- And was it absolutely fab, Ariel? - Mind blowing.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15So different from Australia, but it's absolutely fantastic.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Maybe you can fund your tickets from your Bargain Hunt winnings!
0:03:18 > 0:03:22- Hopefully! Hopefully!- Yeah. Well, that would be fun.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Great to meet you, girls.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Rod, how did you first meet Drew?
0:03:26 > 0:03:29I met Drew in an Op Shop, actually.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32It's like a second-hand store in Australia.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- We've been friends ever since. - That's brilliant.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Do you go to these Op Shops because you like a bargain? Is that it?
0:03:38 > 0:03:41Oh, I'm such a bargain hunter, Tim. I'm just shocking.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44I can't even walk past a skip without looking inside.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46So what do you do, seriously, to earn a dollar?
0:03:46 > 0:03:50I'm a food service supervisor at St Luke's Hospital in Sydney
0:03:50 > 0:03:53I serve all the food and look after all the patients,
0:03:53 > 0:03:54cleaning up, sterilisation.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58- Now, you also have a passion for art?- Oh, yes.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01I do optical art, which is like geometric art in really kind of swirly,
0:04:01 > 0:04:06wild kind of '60s and '70s psychedelic colours.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08And much to my surprise...
0:04:08 > 0:04:10much to my surprise,
0:04:10 > 0:04:12I've, erm, sold a few.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16Well then, you must be pretty good. Drew, what do you do for a living?
0:04:16 > 0:04:19I work at the passport office in Sydney.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I've worked there for a few years.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25It's great, I get to talk and chat to customers about their travel plans.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28I know you enjoy collecting. What sort of things interest you?
0:04:28 > 0:04:33I like 1920s, 1930s trinket things, glass things.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38Mainly, though, my huge focus is on anything to do with Cluedo.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40Cluedo, the board game. Love it.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43I've got about 30 to 40 different editions of the actual game.
0:04:43 > 0:04:48I also have the Cluedo umbrella, Cluedo Christmas bonbons.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52- You also like horror films?- Exactly. Cluedo, horror, hand-in-hand.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55I love watching a horror film, freaking myself out,
0:04:55 > 0:04:57and not being able to sleep the next night.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Then wake up the next morning and want to watch it again!
0:05:00 > 0:05:03On that happy note, I'm going to give you some money.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06AU500, there you go. 500 each.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!
0:05:09 > 0:05:11And very, very, very good luck!
0:05:11 > 0:05:14What fun this is!
0:05:14 > 0:05:17So, in unfamiliar Australian territory,
0:05:17 > 0:05:21we thought we'd bring along a taste of British expertise.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26Hoping to make a good return for the Reds is super Scotsman, Paul Laidlaw.
0:05:26 > 0:05:32And English gent and globetrotter, David Barby, will be in charge of the Blues.
0:05:34 > 0:05:38- Best of luck. Best of luck. Good luck.- All right, teams.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41You're on the clock, enough hugging. Time to get shopping!
0:05:41 > 0:05:45- This is it, girls. How are you feeling?- Fantastic! Excited!
0:05:45 > 0:05:50- 500 bucks, is it burning a hole in our collective pocket? - Yes, certainly is!
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Scan the store. The clock is ticking away.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Looks like the Blues are feeling the heat of the Barby!
0:05:58 > 0:06:00And they're only just off the starting block.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04- Look at that for a bracelet!- Oh, yeah!- That's interesting, isn't it?
0:06:04 > 0:06:07- What's that made out of?- Agates.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11- Polished hard stones, and typically Scottish.- OK.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14I've got to be honest with you, I can see the price tag from here,
0:06:14 > 0:06:16it's not going to happen for us today.
0:06:16 > 0:06:21But that is about as sexy a piece as I've seen in many a moon.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Expensive taste, ladies! What about those Blues?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- A bear bottle.- Oh!
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- I'll put it back. - 38.- It's a steal.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34If you got it for a five, it would be.
0:06:34 > 0:06:38Remember, you have 500, guys. Don't think cheap!
0:06:38 > 0:06:40We want something more upmarket.
0:06:43 > 0:06:48Oh, gosh, that's rather nice. With a very elegant gentleman.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Oh, look at that. That is a good piece of poker ware.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53- That's beautiful. - I love these fruits here.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55What year is that, David?
0:06:55 > 0:06:571920s, 1930s.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01- But this is typical... This is good quality poker work.- Yes.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04And that would have been used purely for decoration.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07You wouldn't put flowers in it. or only dried flowers.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09It's not nouveau, is it?
0:07:09 > 0:07:13It's very elegant, and it's in very good condition.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15- A lot of work has gone into it. - It's very flamboyant.
0:07:15 > 0:07:19- As soon as I saw it, I thought of you.- It's beautiful, David.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22No damage on it. It's been turned.
0:07:22 > 0:07:28- What's the very best you can do on that? 100?- 120, maybe?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30No, I'd go 100. 90.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32THEY LAUGH No?
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Well, I think 100 will do it. - Yes, please.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37- Thank you very much.- Pleasure.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Lovely to meet you.- And nice to meet you as well.- Thanks a lot.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42- Enjoy it. You've done well. - Thank you.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Oh, let's have a shake on it.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46So, that's one in the old bag for the Blues.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50At 100, that's a very good price. Well done.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Meanwhile, our ladies in red have spotted some Aussie bling.
0:07:53 > 0:07:58How do we feel about the feather form brooch?
0:07:58 > 0:08:00It's peacock feather, isn't it?
0:08:00 > 0:08:03It doesn't have the eye, it's not peacock. I'll tell you what I can.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07Charles Horner is Macclesfield, which is north-west of England.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- OK.- Close to my home.
0:08:09 > 0:08:15He is renowned, the firm is renowned for enamelled silver jewellery.
0:08:15 > 0:08:20Given that we can date this almost certainly to the tail end of the 19th century,
0:08:20 > 0:08:23I think that's a surprisingly modern looking brooch.
0:08:23 > 0:08:24Yes, it is, isn't it?
0:08:24 > 0:08:28If I said to you that was contemporary, would you find that plausible?
0:08:28 > 0:08:32I definitely would buy that. You could imagine buying that in a store.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34- We've got a brand here, we've got a name.- Yeah.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36How is it close up?
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- I think it's even nicer close up. - I love the colour.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- It's surprisingly modern. - It's got a hallmark.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44You have a good set of marks there.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48Sheaves is the assay mark for Chester, if it was assayed there.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51- CH?- CH, 1911, I think.- 1911!
0:08:51 > 0:08:54Could you believe that? 100 years old.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57- It doesn't look it.- You'd think it's contemporary. Fantastic.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00Sounds promising, Reds. How are those Blues getting on?
0:09:00 > 0:09:05- Japanese dolls. Pottery. - Those boys don't look impressed!
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- Is this in your line? - No, not really.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Keep looking, guys!
0:09:12 > 0:09:18Undecided on the feather brooch, Ariel and Melanie want to check out a second piece of jewellery.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24- That would be gold, wouldn't it?- That is so sweet. 14 carat, frosted gold.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27Is there something wrong with the tail?
0:09:27 > 0:09:31I think that is just a little natural pearl, probably freshwater.
0:09:31 > 0:09:36- Beautiful.- Baroque pearl. I mean, it just oozes it.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- That is divine. - It's lovely, it's lovely.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42On a bad day, that stops at 150.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43Yes.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46So I think you've got to buy it at 150, and no more.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50It looks like the girls are going to make an offer for both pieces.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54- You do that one.- No, you do them both, because they're from the same cabinet.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58- Go for 100. Just ask. Just ask! - Oh, I'll ask.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00I love a feisty redhead!
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Excuse me, do you think you could do a deal on the both of these?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- 150 for the two?- 150 for the two.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11All right, if you just wait one moment, I'll just check for you.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Those Aussie girls are pretty shrewd!
0:10:14 > 0:10:21- Suspiria!- We're shopping for the show, not for your personal...
0:10:21 > 0:10:24- I know.- Come on, Blues, we need focus here!
0:10:24 > 0:10:28- The best we could do would be 250. - 200?
0:10:28 > 0:10:33- Really, the most we can pay is 200. - Yes, 200.- That's our bottom line.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34We really need that for 200.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38- So if we can get both for 200, it's guaranteed, it's cash.- Yeah, yeah.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- But we can't do 250.- I'll just have to check with you again, sorry.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43It's OK. Thank you.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47- That's Australian straight talking! - I am loving your work!
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Me too!
0:10:48 > 0:10:52Leaving the Reds to haggle, the Blues have spotted a potential buy.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56- How retro is it? - It's definitely 1950s, I'd say.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Is that silver round the rim?
0:10:58 > 0:11:00It's silver round the rim, yeah.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- Very smart.- It's smart. Are we going to sell that at auction and make a profit?
0:11:04 > 0:11:08- Oh, I don't think so. Not at that price.- I don't think so.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11So, what's the latest on the jewellery deal?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14They're stretching it, 220.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18- Mm.- No.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22It really has to be 200, you know, we've got a few other options.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Otherwise, we won't able to have it.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26The best we could do would be 220.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30Well look, why don't we compromise? Could it be 210, cash, job done?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- 210, cash.- Fantastic.- Thank you. - That's a deal, then.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Thank you very much. - Thank you.- Thank you.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40Well done. 105 each that equates to, for two good brooches. Excellent.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Well done, Reds. And a deal as sharp as any brooch pin.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48With 30 minutes gone, we're halfway through the shopping,
0:11:48 > 0:11:51and the Reds are 21 up on the Blues.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55That's Rosenthal porcelain.
0:11:55 > 0:12:01The designer is an artist called Bjorn Wiinblad. Quite nice. Period.
0:12:01 > 0:12:051970s, 1980s. Do you like it?
0:12:05 > 0:12:09- I'm not really sure about smoking things.- OK.
0:12:11 > 0:12:16Melanie doesn't mind this oriental one, which is a 1930s' cigarette box.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17But I don't mind the walnut one.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21For my money, you killed it with "cigarette".
0:12:21 > 0:12:23If you've got a strong feeling, it's all about price.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26I think we can do better. We're on a roll at the moment.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28- I think we can aim higher. - Fair enough.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31It seems smoking items have the thumbs down.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33So why are we looking at this?
0:12:33 > 0:12:37It's very art deco. It's a German little figure.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40It's orange, I do have a fetish for orange.
0:12:40 > 0:12:46- Art Deco, orange marriage made in heaven.- You know what it is? It's for cigarettes.- Oh!
0:12:46 > 0:12:48It's something which happened in the 1920s,
0:12:48 > 0:12:50it doesn't mean to say you've got to use it.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54- It's a decorative item, as a collector's piece.- It's very cute.
0:12:54 > 0:12:55- Could we have a look at it?- Yes.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04You put cigarettes here, and matches there,
0:13:04 > 0:13:07strike it on the front and light your cigarette.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11- So, what's the condition like? - Condition's OK, it's not rubbed.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15A little bit of rubbing there. But no cracks, no breaks.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18- What year is that, David? - Oh, this would be 1930s.
0:13:18 > 0:13:23- Think in terms of Cabaret. - Oh, Weimar Republic?- Yes.- Oh, wow. - That sort of period.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26What's the very best you can do?
0:13:26 > 0:13:28How about 270?
0:13:29 > 0:13:30No, no.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33That has got to be well under 100.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38- 100?- It's got to be well under 100. - That's quite a reduction.- It is.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41Those, back home, would sell for something in the region of £50.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44But, David, we're not in England!
0:13:44 > 0:13:47The Australian market is completely different.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49Is there anything you could on that?
0:13:49 > 0:13:51The best we can do is 150.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53- 150. - THEY SIGH
0:13:53 > 0:13:55120? Could you stretch to that?
0:13:55 > 0:14:00Well, I said 150, you said 120. I'll meet you halfway at 135.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- What do you think, Drew?- Oh, it's too much for me.- Let's stick by 120.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08- 120.- 120.
0:14:08 > 0:14:12- You're killing me!- 120.
0:14:12 > 0:14:15- All right, 120.- Whooooh! Yes! Yes!
0:14:15 > 0:14:19So, that's item number two, and our Blues sure are happy.
0:14:19 > 0:14:23He's kitsch, he's orange, he's flamboyant. He's us.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30What do you think of these vases?
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- What can you tell us about them? - These are cloisonne enamelled.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Japanese, Chinese in origin.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39It's ubiquitous. There's tons of it out there.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- I don't think it's us. - OK, that's cool.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46- You don't mind me being so honest? - No, we want honest opinions, it's what we're looking for.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Good old straight talking again.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52The ones I like are those there with the art nouveau painted designs on.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54How much are they?
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Oh, I think they're very expensive.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01- 900.- 900! That's just too much. - What?!- It's too much.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Even in dollars, that's expensive.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13- What's this?- Well, I'm staring at that as you pointed it out.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15We know it's an aviation-themed piece.
0:15:15 > 0:15:21- But do you see a transfer decal down below there?- Yeah.- Can you read it?
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Yeah. RAAF.- Which is? - Which is the Royal Air Force.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Royal Australian Air Force.
0:15:27 > 0:15:34- Royal Australian Air Force! - I'll wager, the best air force in Australia.- Definitely in Australia!
0:15:34 > 0:15:38So, what do we have? Period-wise, no earlier than the '40s,
0:15:38 > 0:15:42and perhaps '50s. So immediate post-war. And what is it?
0:15:42 > 0:15:46A little desk piece, a retirement presentation piece,
0:15:46 > 0:15:49something like that. Lovely quality.
0:15:49 > 0:15:55The propeller is laminated which means it's made of layers of mahogany.
0:15:55 > 0:16:02The clock - the label, importantly, tells us working order. Good news.
0:16:02 > 0:16:07I like the RAAF thing. It's got that military heritage behind it.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11Um, I don't mind that. I can see appeal from a number of quarters.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- I don't mind that either. - Are you liking it?- Yeah, I do.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18That's more probably the male thing. Would you buy it?
0:16:18 > 0:16:21I would buy something similar to it, yes!
0:16:21 > 0:16:26- Um, price wise?- I reckon 45.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30- I reckon 20. Try 20.- I wouldn't try that.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32We're talking about trying.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36- I think we need to see what the bottom line is.- Definitely.- OK. Cool.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39This girl's good.
0:16:39 > 0:16:46- "Hand-painted cups, saucers, plates. One cup as is."- That means damaged.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50And the hunt goes on for the Blues. The Reds have found a stallholder.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54But I don't think he knows what he's up against.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58- 50, bottom.- 50.- I don't know. Because this is my last item,
0:16:58 > 0:17:00I don't want to pay that much.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04So my maximum that I would pay for that is 30.
0:17:04 > 0:17:10- That's my bottom line, I'm not going any higher.- 40 and we've got a deal. - No, 30, that's the bottom line.
0:17:10 > 0:17:16- You tell him, girl.- 30 cash then. - Yeah, deal.- OK.- Thank you.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Wow, Ariel, that's amazing!
0:17:19 > 0:17:23- We nailed that with almost 15 minutes to spare.- Of course.
0:17:23 > 0:17:30- Which leaves us time for a coffee. - Sounds good, let's go! - Celebratory coffee!
0:17:30 > 0:17:35With shopping over for the Reds, the Blues are feeling the pressure.
0:17:35 > 0:17:40Wasn't there something up here that we particularly liked and we bypassed it?
0:17:40 > 0:17:42The clock's ticking, gents.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45- Quick, we haven't got much time! - You're absolutely right.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54Oh... I love that.
0:17:54 > 0:17:59- What is it?- Well, it's got it down as a Bosley South Australian bread bin.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03Oh, wow! It's huge.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07- Don't.- How old? - Why don't you like it?
0:18:07 > 0:18:11- It's...- It's pottery. Yeah, no...
0:18:11 > 0:18:17- It's a bin.- I think that... has a multiplicity of uses.
0:18:17 > 0:18:22It could be a jardiniere. The very fact it's got the lid to it as well.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24And it's sort of what we call a lead glaze,
0:18:24 > 0:18:27a majolica glaze. I think that's quite clever.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30What's the price? 295.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34- Do you like that? It's Australian. - It is a bit of Australiana.- It is.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- Nice and heavy, chunky. - I think it's chunky.- We like chunky.
0:18:38 > 0:18:39- Yeah, chunky's good.- How can I help?
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- This particular piece...- Right. - What date is it?
0:18:43 > 0:18:47It's a gorgeous 1920s-30s' piece.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Made in South Australia.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54Very rare to get it all in one piece without a large crack through it.
0:18:54 > 0:18:59And, um, the best I can do on it is 125.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Could we say 100, please?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- 100, please?- Hands and knees?
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Oh, yes!
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Oh dear, oh dear! My children.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15LAUGHTER
0:19:15 > 0:19:17All right, 100.
0:19:18 > 0:19:23Well, the Blue boys' prayers have been answered just with five minutes to go.
0:19:23 > 0:19:27God, strewth, what's up? Time's up!
0:19:27 > 0:19:31Let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35The girls first spotted an early 20th century enamelled brooch.
0:19:35 > 0:19:41- I definitely would buy that. - And then they did, for 105.
0:19:41 > 0:19:47Another 105 was spent on this leaf-shaped enamelled gold brooch.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49- It's gorgeous.- That is divine.
0:19:49 > 0:19:53And with plain talking negotiating skills...
0:19:53 > 0:19:55I don't want to pay that much for it.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59..Ariel made sure they picked up this mantle clock for 30.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03- So, how much did you spend all through?- 240.- 240.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- That's 260 of leftover lolly, please.- No worries.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Thank you, Ariel, that's great.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14Which goes straight across to the legend. There you go, man. What you going to do with that?
0:20:14 > 0:20:17I think I spied something out of the corner of my eye,
0:20:17 > 0:20:23that I think it is complementary but contrasting well with our purchases in hand.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Ah!- We have faith in you. - We all have faith in you.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29And he's so coy sometimes. He's not going to tell us what it is.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Anyway, we'll find out when we get to the bonus buy reveal.
0:20:33 > 0:20:37But right now, why don't we remind ourselves what the Blue team bought?
0:20:37 > 0:20:42The Blues paid 100 for a 1930s' Australian pokerware vase.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45It's very flamboyant. As soon as I saw that, I thought of you chaps.
0:20:45 > 0:20:49And they took a shine to this art deco cigarette dispenser
0:20:49 > 0:20:53and picked it up for a shocking 120.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57And finally, they fell on their knees, literally,
0:20:57 > 0:21:01to plead to buy a South Australian bread bin with 100 of dough.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05- How much did you spend all through then?- 320.
0:21:05 > 0:21:09- I'd like 180 of leftover lolly, please.- Here's the money.- 180.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14He does the housekeeping, OK. 180 goes straight to the Barby.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17So what are you going to find with that, David?
0:21:17 > 0:21:20There's got to be something exciting, maybe musical.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22- Yes.- Drew's very much into musicals.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25Did you realise, Tim, we were both in the same production,
0:21:25 > 0:21:28- obviously not the same year, called The Boyfriend?- Get away!
0:21:28 > 0:21:34- I played Tony and he played... - Bobby.- Can you remember any tunes?
0:21:34 > 0:21:37# Won't you Charleston with me?
0:21:37 > 0:21:41# Won't you Charleston with me? #
0:21:41 > 0:21:45That's enough of that, thank you! We've got a whole programme to get on with.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49Anyway, you go and find your bonus buy. He was a choir boy, you know. You have a nice cup of tea, boys.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Meanwhile, we're going to shove off to a marvellous property
0:21:53 > 0:21:58called The Briars. Where is it? You are about to find out.
0:21:58 > 0:22:02So, we leave the city of Melbourne behind and head out south
0:22:02 > 0:22:05for just over an hour's drive to the Mornington Peninsula, where,
0:22:05 > 0:22:12tucked away in a beautiful rural setting, is this colonial homestead, The Briars.
0:22:12 > 0:22:18Once home to the Balcombe family, it's now one of the oldest properties on the peninsula.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22But inside this classic Australian building
0:22:22 > 0:22:26are treasures relating to the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte,
0:22:26 > 0:22:31which are of great importance to French national history.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Welcome to the Dame Mabel Brooks Napoleonic collection.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41In 1815, Napoleon was exiled to the island of St Helena
0:22:41 > 0:22:44where he was initially a guest at The Briars,
0:22:44 > 0:22:47the home of Dame Mabel's great grandfather, William Balcombe.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51Napoleon gave Balcombe and his family a number of gifts,
0:22:51 > 0:22:56which ultimately came to Australia at a later date.
0:22:56 > 0:23:05And what I have been surprised at is the number of pieces here in the Australian house, The Briars,
0:23:05 > 0:23:07that have got a connection with Napoleon's hair.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Because here we've got a ring,
0:23:11 > 0:23:13a delightful Georgian gold ring.
0:23:13 > 0:23:18In the centre, it has a little panel filled with Napoleon's hair.
0:23:18 > 0:23:23And if you look at the back, inscribed in the gold band, it says,
0:23:23 > 0:23:27"The hair of Napoleon Bonaparte."
0:23:27 > 0:23:32This was given to Dr Elliott, his physician,
0:23:32 > 0:23:34quite early on in 1816.
0:23:34 > 0:23:39The next character in our hair-related Napoleon story
0:23:39 > 0:23:42is a fellow called Denzil Ibbetson.
0:23:42 > 0:23:48He came over with Napoleon in 1815 on HMS Northumberland,
0:23:48 > 0:23:50and they became friendly.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54Ultimately, Ibbetson became the supplier of goods
0:23:54 > 0:23:58to Napoleon's household at Longwood.
0:23:58 > 0:24:04And here, we've got a shard of hair that Napoleon presented to his friend, Ibbetson,
0:24:04 > 0:24:07and as Ibbetson was an amateur artist,
0:24:07 > 0:24:11he created this delightful pen and ink and watercolour image,
0:24:11 > 0:24:14almost a cartoon, of Napoleon, from behind,
0:24:14 > 0:24:20with his hand tucked characteristically underneath his tailcoat.
0:24:20 > 0:24:27But the most amusing piece of hair is pasted into this scrapbook.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30Here we've got an original letter from the period,
0:24:30 > 0:24:35from a Captain Poppleton, part of the military garrison on St Helena.
0:24:35 > 0:24:42His job was to trail Napoleon wherever he went when exercising around the island.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46But Poppleton liked Napoleon and Napoleon like Poppleton.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50And inevitably, a bit of Napoleon's hair went Poppleton's way.
0:24:50 > 0:24:57There you can see it, stapled to the letter that he sent back to Britain.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01But I guess the most valuable and precious
0:25:01 > 0:25:05of Dame Maple's collected pieces of Napoleana
0:25:05 > 0:25:08is this solid silver ink well.
0:25:08 > 0:25:13What's unusual about it is that around the concave-sided base,
0:25:13 > 0:25:17we've got three solid gold Napoleonic coins,
0:25:17 > 0:25:19and it says on the inscription,
0:25:19 > 0:25:22"These Napoleons", that's the gold coins,
0:25:22 > 0:25:27"presented to Mrs Egerton by Sir Thomas Reade,
0:25:27 > 0:25:30"Lieutenant Governor of St Helena."
0:25:30 > 0:25:35"They were found in the pockets of Napoleon Bonaparte
0:25:35 > 0:25:38"after his death on the 5th of May 1821."
0:25:38 > 0:25:41So Reade, the Deputy Governor,
0:25:41 > 0:25:46somehow half-inched the three gold coins in Napoleon's pockets.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49By the following year, the gold coins are back in London
0:25:49 > 0:25:55and silversmiths have mounted them in this splendid inkwell,
0:25:55 > 0:25:58which goes to make it very, very precious.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01But not half as precious as this.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03MILITARY STYLE DRUM BEAT
0:26:08 > 0:26:10Spooky, isn't it?
0:26:10 > 0:26:12The day after Napoleon's death,
0:26:12 > 0:26:18an autopsy was prepared by the British naval authorities
0:26:18 > 0:26:21and Napoleon's physician, Corsican Antommarchi.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25And this is his death mask.
0:26:25 > 0:26:33Literally, a cast taken from his face in wax and then translated into plaster and bronze.
0:26:33 > 0:26:39After that, Napoleon was interred in a tomb at the head of the Seine Valley.
0:26:39 > 0:26:46Perhaps most movingly out of Dame Maple's collection, we have this,
0:26:46 > 0:26:52a spray of dried foliage from the willow tree planted at the head of the tomb.
0:26:53 > 0:26:58Still, before we all burst into tears about this, perhaps we should head off to the auction
0:26:58 > 0:27:03and find out today whether it's going to be tears or smiles for our teams.
0:27:05 > 0:27:11Leaving Melbourne behind, it's time to hit the dramatic sites of Sydney and find Lawsons sale room.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15Luckily, we're in the safe hands of auctioneer Shauna Farren-Price.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- Shauna, good morning.- Good morning.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20First up, this little enamel and silver broach.
0:27:20 > 0:27:25Is Charles Horner a name much in Australia in jewellery collecting terms?
0:27:25 > 0:27:28Not very huge, not bandied about that often.
0:27:28 > 0:27:33Obviously in England it would be much more collectible than over here.
0:27:33 > 0:27:36- So, how much?- 15, 20, something like that.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39Oh, dear! They paid 105 for this thing.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43- It could get up there. We just hope.- Yes.- A lot of hope.
0:27:43 > 0:27:48OK. Next up is the very pretty pearl and gold brooch.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52- Do you fancy that one?- I think it's a very sweet little brooch, actually.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56- It's fantastic quality.- It is. It's very well made.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00- We've been conservative again. - You haven't!- We have.- Oh, no.
0:28:00 > 0:28:05- We have put an estimate of 30-40 on it.- How much?!- 30-40.
0:28:05 > 0:28:11- They paid 105 again. - Again.- Well, I will cross my legs.
0:28:11 > 0:28:15And the last item can only really be of Australian interest,
0:28:15 > 0:28:19at least for the Royal Australian Airforce collectors.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21- It's a handsome object.- It is.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24It would grace any desk or mantelpiece and, you know,
0:28:24 > 0:28:29- it's useful as well as beautiful. - How much?- 20-30.- OK, 30 paid.
0:28:30 > 0:28:34So we are seriously going to have to dig deep
0:28:34 > 0:28:38and trust in the Internet and see what happens. But if all goes wrong,
0:28:38 > 0:28:40they're going to need their bonus buy,
0:28:40 > 0:28:42so let's go and have a look at it.
0:28:42 > 0:28:48Now, girls, you spent 240, you gave the Laidlaw 260, what did you buy?
0:28:48 > 0:28:52Well, brooches, apparently, are us.
0:28:52 > 0:28:55- Wow.- Let me just get my glasses.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59It's not quite a brooch.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02This is a badge.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06It's the badge of the British North Borneo Company,
0:29:06 > 0:29:09who were founded in about 1880.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12They lasted through until the 1940s
0:29:12 > 0:29:14and they governed North Borneo,
0:29:14 > 0:29:19much as the East India Company did a century previous.
0:29:19 > 0:29:24This would be worn, I suspect, by police, perhaps even the military.
0:29:24 > 0:29:30- It's an uncommon badge of high quality. Feel the weight.- Oh, yes.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34- Scarce badge, good thing.- Oh, look at this.- Let's talk numbers.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38- Yes, let's talk numbers.- 25. - Well, that doesn't seem dear at all.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40- That's great. - I think it's worth 50 to 80,
0:29:40 > 0:29:44- effortlessly.- I think it's fantastic, I actually really like it.
0:29:44 > 0:29:48Let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Paul's badge.
0:29:49 > 0:29:54I think it's a splendid little thing, a nice piece of craftsmanship,
0:29:54 > 0:29:58probably a local piece, and very rare.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00I've never seen one before.
0:30:00 > 0:30:05I wouldn't hazard a guess of how many were made and in existence,
0:30:05 > 0:30:08so just how rare it is is difficult to pin down, really.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12I think probably 30-40.
0:30:12 > 0:30:17OK, 25 invested by Mr Laidlaw.
0:30:17 > 0:30:21And, knowing him, that is probably quite a cunning investment.
0:30:21 > 0:30:25Anyway, that's it for the Reds. Now, moving on to the Blues.
0:30:25 > 0:30:28First is the pokerwork turned wood vase.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31There seems to be a lot of this pokerwork knocking about.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33It's very, very popular in Australia.
0:30:33 > 0:30:37The majority of it has sort of gum nut leaves and kangaroos -
0:30:37 > 0:30:38the Australiana themes.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43So with a Georgian dandy on it, it's very different.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46Slightly strange. What sort of estimate?
0:30:46 > 0:30:53- 20-30.- 100 paid. So we're a bit off the mark.
0:30:54 > 0:30:59Next up is the Weimar Republic German cigarette dispenser
0:30:59 > 0:31:01in the form of a bellhop!
0:31:01 > 0:31:03A shocked bellhop.
0:31:03 > 0:31:06Yes, as if he's just had his bottom pinched or something.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09- Anyway, a bit of fun. - A bit of fun indeed.
0:31:09 > 0:31:14In that uranium orange, which has a certain '30s look to it.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16- How much do you think then?- 60-80.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20120 paid, so that's the second disaster.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Now, moving on to the barrel.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26We have got a bit of a problem here, because the lid,
0:31:26 > 0:31:31the ceramic lid that went with this has unfortunately been damaged,
0:31:31 > 0:31:33irreparably damaged,
0:31:33 > 0:31:36so we're not able to sell it with it.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40When you see these things coming up in the sale room,
0:31:40 > 0:31:43complete with ceramic lids, how much would you estimate on it?
0:31:43 > 0:31:47With a lid, I would say 150-200.
0:31:47 > 0:31:52OK, and what is your estimate as it is?
0:31:52 > 0:31:54As it is, without a lid, 50 to 80?
0:31:54 > 0:31:58So, I think on the basis of being fair to the team,
0:31:58 > 0:32:00if the difference is 100,
0:32:00 > 0:32:03then we should allow the team a credit of 100,
0:32:03 > 0:32:07irrespective of what it actually brings in the auction.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10So if it brings in the auction 50, they'll actually be paid 150,
0:32:10 > 0:32:12and I will explain that to them.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14I think that's very fair.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18And depending on how everything else dishes up,
0:32:18 > 0:32:20they may or may not need their bonus buy,
0:32:20 > 0:32:22but let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:32:22 > 0:32:29So, you spent 320, quite magnificent, you gave David 180.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31What did you spend it on, David?
0:32:31 > 0:32:34Well, knowing how you guys like retro, anything 1950s, '60s,
0:32:34 > 0:32:39I bought this counter-weighted desk light.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41So that is quite a heavy object.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44It goes on the desk, it sits flat and then you can swing this round
0:32:44 > 0:32:46to whatever angle you want it.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49I think it's absolutely super, I'd have it in my house.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51It's a bit like a Starship Enterprise.
0:32:51 > 0:32:55- Well, you think of a flying saucer or spaceship.- It's interesting.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58- Be good for my painting. - Why?- Well, you swivel the light.
0:32:58 > 0:33:04That's true, but I can imagine this on a nice mahogany or walnut desk.
0:33:04 > 0:33:07- So how much of our money did you spend, David?- I spent 120 of your money.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11- 120.- What do you think, Drew? - Yeah, next question!
0:33:11 > 0:33:14He's underwhelmed!
0:33:14 > 0:33:18- He's a bit dumbstruck, I think. - How much extra?
0:33:18 > 0:33:21I think it could do 20 on,
0:33:21 > 0:33:24I think it will do something in the region of about 180.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26Oh, I'm going to keep you to that.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30Well, we watched his lips, we saw the prediction of profit there.
0:33:30 > 0:33:35Let's find out for the audience at home what the auctioneer thinks about David's lamp.
0:33:35 > 0:33:39Well, here we go, there's a futuristic-looking lamp for you.
0:33:39 > 0:33:44- It's fabulous.- Would you want it on your desk?- I would, actually.
0:33:44 > 0:33:49- Would you have it on your desk?- Well, I think it might grow on me too.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51I have great hopes for it.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54How high are your hopes in relation to the estimate?
0:33:54 > 0:33:58Having said that, we've estimated it at 80-120.
0:33:58 > 0:34:04That's not so bad. 120, Mr Barby paid, and he's quite excited by it.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07Anyway, here we go. You're going to be taking the sale.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10We'll look forward to that. Thank you.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22We love you, Tim, and you're a big part of what we love about Bargain Hunt,
0:34:22 > 0:34:26you in your lovely outfits and your wisdom, so we've got you this.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Oh, look at that! It's a combo! It's a bowtie.
0:34:30 > 0:34:36How clever you are. And what's this? Oh, look, it's the cup of wisdom.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40- Is that me?- Yes, it is you. - Who drew this?- I did.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42You're absolute darlings.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46Thank you very much. Aren't I lucky? A souvenir to take home.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49Now, first up is Charles Horner, and here it comes.
0:34:49 > 0:34:55Lot 93, a silver and enamel feather brooch here. Starting at 50.

0:35:28 > 0:35:32An early 20th-century gold brooch, a very pretty one indeed.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36Couple of hundred for it anywhere? Couple of hundred? 50 for it.
0:35:36 > 0:35:40Give me a start. 50, she says. Thank you, Madam. At 50, at 50 seated.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42At 50, it's only money.
0:35:42 > 0:35:47At 50 only, I must sell, are we done, 50 no further?
0:35:47 > 0:35:49Fair warning at 50.
0:35:49 > 0:35:55- Sold.- Absolutely crackers. 50. - Oh, well.- That's £30.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57That's rubbish.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59So, that is -55.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03Lot 95, a post-World War II mantle clock.
0:36:03 > 0:36:0920 starts me away, and off we go. 20 here, 30 he says. 40 up back. At 40.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20100.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22110, he says. At 110.
0:36:24 > 0:36:29120, she says. He shakes his head. All done and sure.
0:36:29 > 0:36:34120 is plus 90 on that.
0:36:34 > 0:36:40You had 15, you lost 55, you were -40, you are now plus 90.
0:36:40 > 0:36:44Which means overall you are plus 50!
0:36:44 > 0:36:46Plus 50, how good is that?
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- So, what are you going to do about the bonus buy?- Take it?- Take it.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53- Definitely, not even an issue. - We're going to go with it.
0:36:53 > 0:36:57Ask us a million times, we'll always say yes. Yes, yes, yes.
0:36:57 > 0:37:0125, you paid. She has estimated 30-40 on it.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03She rates it, she thinks it is a good object.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Let's hope she is right.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Lot 99, it's a silver cap badge
0:37:07 > 0:37:10of the British North Borneo Protectorate.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Very interesting little piece, exquisite craftsmanship there,
0:37:13 > 0:37:16and straightaway 30-40 starts me and off we go.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19At 40, 50, I'm out.
0:37:19 > 0:37:2560, 70 he says. 80, 90, 100, 110.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27At 110 he shakes his head.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31110 on my right, are you done and sure at 110 only?
0:37:31 > 0:37:38110 bucks. That is plus 85 for your bonus buy. He is a maestro.
0:37:38 > 0:37:42Plus the 50 that you already had means that you are plus 135,
0:37:42 > 0:37:46- and that, girls, could be a winning score.- Yay!
0:37:53 > 0:37:59The old bread bin, I'm afraid, has had a sorry event happen to it.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01In the transportation up from Melbourne,
0:38:01 > 0:38:03the lid has been smashed.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07I mean, we just don't have a lid to sell with it.
0:38:07 > 0:38:11So we're going to sell the bread bin bottom,
0:38:11 > 0:38:15give you a 100 compensation package to put into the end total,
0:38:15 > 0:38:18and that's the only way I'm afraid I can deal with it.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21Anyway, first up is your Australian pokerwork vase,
0:38:21 > 0:38:24which is in brilliant original condition!
0:38:24 > 0:38:30Lot 107 is an Australian 1930s' pokerwork treen vase.
0:38:30 > 0:38:35- A lot of interest here, I'll start the bidding at 40, 50, 60.- 60, yes!
0:38:35 > 0:38:41At 60. At 60 only. 70, at 70 in the room.
0:38:41 > 0:38:4480, seated, against you, sir, at 80.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46Are we done and sure at 80 only?
0:38:46 > 0:38:52- Come on!- 80. Once, twice and thrice, sold.
0:38:52 > 0:39:0080 is minus 20. That's a good deal better than she thought. Here we go.
0:39:00 > 0:39:01Lot 108.
0:39:01 > 0:39:05It's a German Weimar Republic ceramic cigarette dispenser.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07Isn't he cute?
0:39:07 > 0:39:13How about 100 to start me? 20, 30 starts me and off we go. At 30, then.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16At 30 only. 40 exhausts my bid.
0:39:16 > 0:39:23- At 50, 50 only.- Come on, come on! - 50 at 50, sold.
0:39:23 > 0:39:30That is -70. Not looking so good, this. OK, now, the bread bin.
0:39:30 > 0:39:34Remember, you have your credit of 100 in the bank
0:39:34 > 0:39:37before anything happens. Here we go.
0:39:37 > 0:39:44Lot 109 is a South Australian pottery bread crock. 100.
0:39:44 > 0:39:50Start me at 50 if you like. At 20. 30 exhausts my bid. 30.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54- Come on, come on, more!- 40, at 40.
0:39:54 > 0:39:5850, at 50. Are you sure at 50?
0:39:58 > 0:40:02- I'm selling then at 50. Sold. - 50, she sold it for.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04So, with your credit in the bank,
0:40:04 > 0:40:11because of the loss of the top, you will get a plus 50 score for that.
0:40:11 > 0:40:16So overall you were minus 90, you've just won 50,
0:40:16 > 0:40:18so you are -40 at this moment.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20What are you going to do about the swivel desk lamp?
0:40:20 > 0:40:23- Are you going on with it? - I'm going to go with our expert.
0:40:23 > 0:40:28He said it is worth 180. So I think we should go for it.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30- What do you think, Drew?- OK!
0:40:30 > 0:40:33The auctioneer's estimate on it is 80-120,
0:40:33 > 0:40:37which is close enough to the 120 purchase price,
0:40:37 > 0:40:40so let's hope for the best there.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43Anyway, you're minus 40, we're going with the bonus.
0:40:43 > 0:40:44Here it comes.
0:40:44 > 0:40:50Lot 113, it's a 1950s' swivel desk lamp and it's a beauty.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52It had a lot of interest during the viewing,
0:40:52 > 0:40:59a lot of interest in this one, I must start the bidding with me at 160.
0:40:59 > 0:41:03At 160. At 160 then. 180,
0:41:03 > 0:41:06200 with me. At 200 against you, sir.

0:41:22 > 0:41:28325, done and sure at 325. Sold.
0:41:28 > 0:41:34That is an amazing 205 profit, which is something else, isn't it?
0:41:36 > 0:41:38You've got minus 40,
0:41:38 > 0:41:46- which means you are plus 165 at this moment.- You're kidding!
0:41:53 > 0:41:58How lovely is this? To be out in the sunshine enjoying a splendid day.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01- Happy, girls? Happy, boys?- Yes. - Been chatting about the scores?
0:42:01 > 0:42:03- No.- No, not at all!
0:42:03 > 0:42:07Both teams know that they made a substantial profit.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Both teams know they have made a three figure profit,
0:42:10 > 0:42:15which on Bargain Hunt is practically unheard of!
0:42:15 > 0:42:20One team, sadly, is the runner-up, with a marginally lower score.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22And that team is...
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Reds.
0:42:24 > 0:42:27- Ohh!- Oh, well.- Oh, well.
0:42:27 > 0:42:35Sadly, you are runners-up today with a massive score of 135 profit.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39Which is a chunk of cash, I have to tell you.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42Congratulations, we loved having you on the show. It's been tremendous.
0:42:42 > 0:42:47But the winners today are the boys. You're going to go home with 165.
0:42:47 > 0:42:50- 165.- Yes!- Woo!
0:42:50 > 0:42:54For which you should be entirely grateful to David,
0:42:54 > 0:43:00who brings a 205 profit from his bonus buy,
0:43:00 > 0:43:04which dug you out of a rather awkward situation!
0:43:04 > 0:43:08We had a great show. Join us soon for some more bargain-hunting, yes?
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Yes!
