0:00:05 > 0:00:07I'm getting that feeling again -
0:00:07 > 0:00:11you know, the one you get when you slip on that really comfortable jacket
0:00:11 > 0:00:14or welcome a really good friend.
0:00:14 > 0:00:20It's the sort of feeling I get every time I say the words, "Let's go Bargain Hunting, yeah!"
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Welcome, friends, to Oswestry,
0:00:48 > 0:00:51once known as a frontier town
0:00:51 > 0:00:55on account of its position on the border of England and Wales.
0:00:55 > 0:01:01Our teams are here today to secure bargains and I'm looking forward to some strategic play.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Either way, we're gonna have fun, aren't we?
0:01:06 > 0:01:10On today's show, the reds are getting along famously.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12Are you fluttering your eyelashes?
0:01:12 > 0:01:15It's working for me - I don't know why, but, yeah.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18But the same can't be said for the blues.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Do I need to be here?- No!
0:01:20 > 0:01:22He was asking me, I think!
0:01:23 > 0:01:26Oo-er! Right, let's meet the teams.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29On the show today, we've got two teams of friends.
0:01:29 > 0:01:30Well, they're friends at the moment.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32For the reds we've got Jill and Paula,
0:01:32 > 0:01:35and for the blues, we have Darren and Tony.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Welcome, everybody.- Hello!
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Smacking to see you. Jill, how is it that you became friends?
0:01:40 > 0:01:45Me and Paula met five years ago. We both work for the NHS
0:01:45 > 0:01:49and instantly hit it off with the same sense of humour and our love of wine!
0:01:49 > 0:01:52What particular branch of the NHS do you occupy?
0:01:52 > 0:01:56We work for a team in the community that supports people with chest conditions.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59We try to keep them out of hospital and keep them in their homes.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02That's good. Now, you're a big sports fan, aren't you?
0:02:02 > 0:02:04A watching more than the playing type.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08- More of the couch?- Yes, a couch potato kind of sporting fan.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- What do you like?- Any sport. Cricket, golf, darts,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13but my main one is football.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- Is it?- Yes, and I'm an avid Liverpool supporter.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Is it all to do with their thighs, then, or what?
0:02:18 > 0:02:22- Oh, no.- Thighs and calves? - I'm a serious football fan. - Serious fan.- Yes.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27There are a number of goals that you'd like to complete before your next big birthday.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29- The big 4-0 next birthday. - Is it really?
0:02:29 > 0:02:33- So I've compiled a list that I'd like to achieve.- What are they?
0:02:33 > 0:02:34One, I'm going to run a half-marathon.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36I'm going to learn a foreign language,
0:02:36 > 0:02:41- and the best one is to appear on Bargain Hunt.- Get away!
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Get a little pecker for myself!
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Oh, no! What, now? Can we do it now?
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Ooh, yes!
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- Thank you!- Aren't I the lucky one! Isn't that sweet!
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- That is an ambition so easily achieved.- Absolutely!
0:02:52 > 0:02:55I should make it more difficult for you!
0:02:55 > 0:02:56Blast it!
0:02:56 > 0:02:59So, Paula, what do you do in your NHS role?
0:02:59 > 0:03:01I'm a nurse within the same team as Jill,
0:03:01 > 0:03:04again, supporting patients at home
0:03:04 > 0:03:09with their respiratory disease called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11What keeps you busy outside work?
0:03:11 > 0:03:14I've got two children and a lovely border terrier called Caspar
0:03:14 > 0:03:16who I love taking for long walks.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- Got the old man, too? - I've got the old man, yes.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- He's my...- Do you take him for a walk, too?- Oh, gosh, yeah. Absolutely.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Shackle him up.- He needs airing now and again! He really does.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Absolutely.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28I think you'll do very well, you girls.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31- We're gonna have a laugh. - We sure are, Tim.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34It says here you two met over a jacket. Is that right?
0:03:34 > 0:03:39That's correct. I bought a jacket from Tony on a well-known internet auction site.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42And it's been bosom friendship ever since, has it?
0:03:42 > 0:03:46- "Bro-mance" is the word I use. - That's how the wives describe it!
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Jolly good.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50You're a bit of a fanatical jacket collector.
0:03:50 > 0:03:56- I have been known to buy the odd one or two.- How many jackets have you got in your wardrobe?
0:03:56 > 0:03:58- Now not so many. About 80.- 80?!
0:03:58 > 0:04:03- At one stage it was pushing towards 300.- 300 jackets?!
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- Where did you keep them?- Nearly one for every day of the year!
0:04:06 > 0:04:08- JILL:- You've got 301 now!
0:04:08 > 0:04:13What job of work do you do that you can wear 300 jackets a year?
0:04:13 > 0:04:15- Postman.- Ahh!
0:04:15 > 0:04:19- They provide a lovely jacket(!) - What's best about the postie job? Christmas?
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I like talking to the customers and getting to know them.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24A bit of banter with them.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29- Good for you. It says here, Tony, you're a chemist.- I am indeed. - Tell us about that.
0:04:29 > 0:04:33My particular job is delivering, or supplying,
0:04:33 > 0:04:36the sticky stuff that goes on the back of sticky labels.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37- Is it?- Yes.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Oh. That's unusual, isn't it?
0:04:40 > 0:04:44- You're also in a band?- I am, yes. - Tell us about that, Toto.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Bass guitar and occasionally guitar in a rock band.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52They have a strange name, The Kings of Frog Island.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- Made any CDs or anything? - Yes, we've had three CDs out.
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- They were semi-successful. We've sold...- Three?- ..in the thousands.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02- Seriously, have you?- Yes.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05What are you guys after today? What's the tactics?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08A bit of bling and some silverware, I think.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- I'm a Newcastle fan and Darren's... - I'm Stoke City.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15- Both teams haven't had much success. - No silverware for our teams.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18So we'll compensate and buy some silverware today.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21No better reason to go for silver, then. Anyway, we'll have fun.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25Right. Now, the £300. Here's your money moment.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27£300 apiece. You know the rules. Your experts await.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30And off you go! And very, very, very good luck.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35And guiding the teams today are our hard-working experts,
0:05:35 > 0:05:37cor, doesn't he scrub up well?
0:05:37 > 0:05:40With the reds, it's David Harper.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44And ringing out the profits for the blues
0:05:44 > 0:05:45is Mark Stacey.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Ding-dong!
0:05:47 > 0:05:49So you two don't mind me telling my friends
0:05:49 > 0:05:51I've spent the whole day with a pair of nurses?
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- Absolutely not.- Not at all, no! - Are you sure?- Except Jill's a physio.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58What's your strategy for today, bargain hunting?
0:05:58 > 0:05:59Something shiny and silver.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Some quality items. No rubbish.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- Oh.- No tat.- That's my plan out of the window, then.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09- What are we looking for?- A bit of silver, maybe?- I like a bit of silver.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- Earrings, pearl earrings.- Right. - Something like that.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15- So we've got a plan, then?- Well, as much as we can plan, yeah.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18- Let's go and watch it all unravel, shall we?- OK!
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Ah, so speaks the voice of experience.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24But only 30 seconds in, Harper's already under pressure.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Anything jumping out for you, David?
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Er...
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Well, not yet!
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- Come on, guys. You've got to find some things.- Yeah.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35I've spotted it already. The naked lady!
0:06:35 > 0:06:37We'll move on from there.
0:06:37 > 0:06:38Not to your taste, eh, Mark?
0:06:38 > 0:06:40I like the box.
0:06:40 > 0:06:41Butter-fingers!
0:06:41 > 0:06:43It's OK, he's not looking!
0:06:43 > 0:06:46All breakages must be paid for, you naughty reds!
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Close that.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50We're looking for some bling, apparently.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52You said you were looking for bling.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53Now, now, boys.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56That's quite nice. A cheroot holder. Can you show me that?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Ivory is quite a controversial subject,
0:07:01 > 0:07:03but this is an antique piece of ivory.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06How does it work? You lift this up, do you?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- From the side?- You just twist it there.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Oh! Where did you twist it? - Just open the bottle.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13Oh, gosh.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16It's in the form of a bottle of champagne.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18How old is that, Mark?
0:07:18 > 0:07:20It's 1883.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- Dare we ask the price?- We've got 85 on it, at the moment.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Worn out, Mark?
0:07:26 > 0:07:27Hold him up, Darren.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29What's your better price?
0:07:29 > 0:07:3170? One moment.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34We need to consult.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Ah, the stall-holder's partner.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Here comes the cavalry.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44- We're looking for silver. - What date's that?- 1963.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47- Ooh. Right.- Does it work?
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- I haven't tried it. - You daren't plug it in!
0:07:50 > 0:07:53- Can I pick it up?- Is it battery or wires?- It's battery.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55- PAULA:- Can you get the World Service on it?
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Ha-ha! Talking of which,
0:07:57 > 0:08:00what kind of reception have the blues had with their dealer?
0:08:01 > 0:08:05- 55?- I was hoping for sort of 50.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07Hello, what's this? Hello!
0:08:07 > 0:08:09It's a pooch with a nose for a bargain, clearly!
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Is that OK?- Yes, that's OK, yes.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14- Let's strike while the iron's hot. - OK.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16- Shake the man's hand.- Deal.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Decisive action, lads. That's what we like.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22Within ten minutes, you've found your first item.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24You've spent a reasonable amount of money, 50 quid.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27You have to find two other items, now.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28They've got beer!
0:08:28 > 0:08:30I should go like that on the label.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32I don't think beer is going to be one of them.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34It's not time for a beer!
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Do we like that barrel?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38We're all barrelled out, you know.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40These girls like a joke, don't they?
0:08:40 > 0:08:42I like the alcohol, don't like the barrel.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44It's like me coming back from the pub!
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Oh, gosh, it's awful. Awful.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49There seems to be something of a theme, here.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52How about a bucket instead of a barrel?
0:08:52 > 0:08:54- Brass feet. So it's oak.- How old?
0:08:54 > 0:09:00I think that started life as an oak metal-bound bucket,
0:09:00 > 0:09:02yeah, in the 19th century
0:09:02 > 0:09:05and then at some point in recent times
0:09:05 > 0:09:08- someone has glammed it up. - Put finishing touches.
0:09:08 > 0:09:14And made it a bit blingy. And they've created a really good-looking champagne bucket.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Or planter.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18So it's a bit quirky.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21- I like the little pine box. - I like the pine box.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- It's not old, is it? - I don't know. Let's have a look.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26You liked this, Tony, didn't you?
0:09:26 > 0:09:30A little candle box in there, look, for keeping your candles.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33It's got a nice feel, a nice grain.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36It's the sort of thing I can see selling in Cheshire.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40I think so. He wants to know how much the pine trunk is.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- I've got 125 on it.- Ooh. Yes.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49What would you say we'd need to get it for to possibly look at a profit?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- 20.- He'd never do that.
0:09:51 > 0:09:5440 would be brilliant.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- What would be your very, very, very best...- 42?
0:09:57 > 0:10:00- ..that you could possibly do. - Very best, £50.
0:10:00 > 0:10:0350 quid or nothing. What will we say to him?
0:10:03 > 0:10:05- Let's go with the gamble. - It's always a gamble.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- Yeah, go on.- Happy?- Let's go for it.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Thank you! Go and shake his hand.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Yes.- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Let's hope we don't kick the bucket!
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Oh, very good!
0:10:15 > 0:10:19I don't know who's coming out with worst gags, the girls or the boys.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23- Gosh, we've had a nice selection of dogs already, haven't we? - You attract the dogs, Mark.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26No need to be personal!
0:10:26 > 0:10:28What would you move on the price?
0:10:28 > 0:10:31I could move to about...110.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33Gosh, that is a little bit, isn't it?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35We might be back in desperation later on.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Jill's decided to lie down on the job.
0:10:38 > 0:10:43- Where's the grapes?- You want that bucket with the champagne that we just bought.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47A bucket of champagne. We could get a funnel and just pour it in.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- She could manage a funnel! - Do you know, in all seriousness, it's very comfortable.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54That is a really good piece of furniture.
0:10:54 > 0:10:571860, 1870, beautifully made.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00- Can you feel the horse hair? - Absolutely gorgeous.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04Squeeze it. To create that new today,
0:11:04 > 0:11:05to get someone, if he was good enough,
0:11:05 > 0:11:08to carve that, hand spring it and stuff it with horse hair,
0:11:08 > 0:11:12I think would cost you 7,000 quid.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15Out of interest, how much is the chaise?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- It's 450 on that.- 450.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20A bargain, but still beyond our budget.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Moving on, then.
0:11:23 > 0:11:24Do you like Belleek china?
0:11:24 > 0:11:27If I knew what it was, Mark, no.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30You haven't done any research for this show, then?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32We thought we'd leave it to the experts!
0:11:32 > 0:11:35- Where is he, then, David? - Is it damaged? No, it's not.
0:11:35 > 0:11:36I beg your pardon?
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Ah, the penny's dropped!
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Did you say, "Where is David?"
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Does it ring your bell, Mark?
0:11:44 > 0:11:46- I think I'll just go home. - Ding-dong!
0:11:46 > 0:11:48- I think that's quite fun.- OK.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52It's Belleek china, not terribly old.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Tell us a bit more about Belleek.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56It's made in County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58So how old is it, then, Mark?
0:11:58 > 0:12:03- I don't think this is very old. - Right. £20? Not a lot of money.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Not a lot of money. If we talk nicely to them,
0:12:06 > 0:12:09- we might get it for a tenner. - A tenner.- We can go for that, can't we?- Yeah.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13- Ding-dong.- What do you think that would get at auction?
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- 15?- It's got to be a tenner, that, surely?
0:12:15 > 0:12:18- Do I need... Do I need to be here? - No!
0:12:18 > 0:12:21- He was asking me that question, I think.- Sorry!
0:12:21 > 0:12:22Gee whizz!
0:12:22 > 0:12:25Someone's getting a little bit tetchy, aren't they?
0:12:25 > 0:12:28I would have thought they'd put an estimate of 20 or £30 on it.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32Shall I go and ask them? Try and make yourselves useful. We've got all day(!)
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Ooh! No, you haven't. 30 minutes left.
0:12:35 > 0:12:36- Can we have a look at the pearl ones?- Yeah.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42- What do you think?- It is pretty.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45- Is it a real pearl? Do you know how to test?- No.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47OK. Rub it on your teeth very gently.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49What can you feel?
0:12:49 > 0:12:53- Like grainy.- Grainy. So a bit gritty, as if it's got sand on it.
0:12:53 > 0:12:54- Mm.- Then it's a real pearl.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58Now, has Mark found a real bargain?
0:12:58 > 0:13:02Now I've had a word with the lady, and she's been very nice to us.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04She said we can have it for a tenner.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06OK, let's go for it!
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- Ding-dong!- Ding-dong!- Avon calling!
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Or any other leading make-up brand.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16Our David likes getting dolled up.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18What about this big bling gold thing?
0:13:18 > 0:13:22- Does it suit me?- It's just you. - It's me, isn't it?- It is you.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- Sophistication, the height of. - I think so.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27You need the medallion now.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31- I could even sort of dangle it. - Absolutely.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- I'd go with the dangle. - Especially with that chest hair.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36He's hardly Tom Jones, is he?
0:13:40 > 0:13:42- OK. Shall we move on from there, then?- Yep.- Yeah.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43- Thanks.- Thank you.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46- You've spent £60 on two items.- Yep.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48But I feel I'm leading you a bit in this.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52- We do, as well.- But at least now we've got plenty of time
0:13:52 > 0:13:56for me and Darren - and money - to find items that we like.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- We'll talk you into something, Mark. - Get on with it. You don't need me. - Don't go off in a huff!
0:14:00 > 0:14:04Too late! So how will the boys fare on their own?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06What have you got on here that we make a profit on?
0:14:06 > 0:14:10Whereabouts is the nude? The bronze lady. They like nudes.
0:14:10 > 0:14:11This doesn't bode well!
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Is it bronze?- It's bronze, yeah.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17- And how much is that? - I've got 95 on it.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20- It's quite nice.- Nice long legs.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Fantastic.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23These boys know what they like.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- I like that fish.- It's got nice markings on it.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Let's have a look at that. And what about that?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35I was just getting my eye on that. I think that's quite un...
0:14:35 > 0:14:37So we've got two bits of silver here, girls.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39So, the fish, first of all.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Is he silver? Is there any hallmark?
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- If there's no markings, we can't describe it as silver.- No.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46It would be described as a white metal.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49What is he? He's got two holes in his snout there.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's obviously for sprinkling something.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55So it could be pepper or salt, or possibly as a desk piece.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Because he'll sit nicely on a desk.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59- I like it.- What have you got there?
0:14:59 > 0:15:03It's a lock and key, but it's made out of a threepenny bit.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06OK. So there's a Victorian coin, 1886.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08A silver threepenny bit.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12It doesn't look that attractive. Would I put that on a chain? I'm not sure.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15I think we should go for the fish and keep this one in mind.
0:15:15 > 0:15:16What's the best on the fish?
0:15:16 > 0:15:19We could do that for 45.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- Is that the absolute best?- 42?
0:15:23 > 0:15:26- We'll go with 40.- We'll have the fish.- We'll have the fish. - Well done.
0:15:26 > 0:15:30You own a silver-ish carp fish of unknown origin or date.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- We like him.- We do.- Come on.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Put fishy in your pocket.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Those reds are doing swimmingly well
0:15:37 > 0:15:41and I think they'd be pleased to hear my next top tip.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45What inevitably sells incredibly well at auction
0:15:45 > 0:15:49are objects connected with children and animals.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51And I think you'd be hard pushed
0:15:51 > 0:15:57to find a more charming animal-related object than this.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01What do you think about the wise old owl?
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Isn't he lovely?
0:16:02 > 0:16:09The form of the owl, however, is novelty and not ornithologically correct.
0:16:09 > 0:16:14What was it made for? Well, if I open it up, inside the top rim
0:16:14 > 0:16:16you can see a flange.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19That, originally, was supposed to hold a glass liner.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23That groove there that goes through the top edge
0:16:23 > 0:16:27is masked by the owl's beak.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29This thing was originally a mustard pot.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31There was a spoon that went into the mustard
0:16:31 > 0:16:35but the terminal of the spoon was unusual
0:16:35 > 0:16:39because it was in the form of a little wiggly, squiggly tail
0:16:39 > 0:16:41of a mouse!
0:16:41 > 0:16:44The pun being that owls eat mice
0:16:44 > 0:16:48and this owl happened to have a little mouse in its mouth.
0:16:48 > 0:16:53If you look up on the internet owl cruets in solid silver
0:16:53 > 0:16:57you'll find them by a celebrated Victorian silversmith,
0:16:57 > 0:16:59called Fox,
0:16:59 > 0:17:02priced at more than £3,000.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06It's the most desirable form of mustard pot
0:17:06 > 0:17:08that's made in the world.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10So what's this one worth?
0:17:10 > 0:17:13Well, of course, it's not as good as a silver one.
0:17:13 > 0:17:17This is simply made out of a base metal, nickel.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20To you, today, here in Oswestry,
0:17:20 > 0:17:23it's yours for £55.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27That's 55. Too-whit, too-whoo!
0:17:27 > 0:17:32Meanwhile, the boys are trying to stick to their original plan.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34- They want something silvery. - Yes, we do.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36But they keep getting distracted
0:17:36 > 0:17:38by novelty items.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41- It's an old crab.- A bit like Mark!
0:17:41 > 0:17:44Or by sausage and bacon rolls!
0:17:44 > 0:17:46And they're not the only ones!
0:17:46 > 0:17:48This is what I know about, David.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52- I spent three years of my life studying this when I was at university.- Really?
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- So this is more my field. - OK. Over to you.
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Well, just by looking at him, he's not had a very good day!
0:18:00 > 0:18:02So what's going on here, then?
0:18:02 > 0:18:06This is your spinal cord. These are your spinous processes and your vertebrae.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10And your good old pelvis, your sacrum and your legs. There you go!
0:18:10 > 0:18:13- My goodness me!- And there would be your lovely head, David.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15My head? I'm not that small!
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Can you help me out a bit, then?
0:18:17 > 0:18:20I haven't really got a bad back, but I wouldn't mind you having a go!
0:18:20 > 0:18:22We'll talk about it later!
0:18:23 > 0:18:26- Right, you two.- Yes, sir? - Come with me.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28We'll go inside for a minute.
0:18:28 > 0:18:34- We'll have a quick look in here and we might have to make some decisions. OK?- Fine, yep.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Yes, come on, Mark. Give those boys some focus! Time's running out.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44Those are quite nice.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48- What do you think it is, first of all?- A hip flask.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51You've been watching the show, haven't you?
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- Or taking it to the match with me! - He's been drinking as well!
0:18:54 > 0:18:56- But not today!- Not today. Good.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58There's nothing in there.
0:18:58 > 0:19:02But basically, it's glass inside.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05So you take that off so you can pour the drink in there if you want.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- That's all clearly hallmarked there. - How old do you think it is?
0:19:08 > 0:19:11It might be on there, actually. 1906.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13- OK.- So it's Edwardian.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15- It's a very gentleman's thing. - Certainly is.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18I thought for two debonair gentlemen.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Where do I find them? I could show it to them.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22Isn't he a card?
0:19:22 > 0:19:26You've got this at 250. What would you be willing to go for?
0:19:26 > 0:19:28- I'd do 195.- Could you go a bit more?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Uh, another tenner. 185.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36It's not bad. I like round figures.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40- Yeah, 180's better.- Depends which side of the table! Go on, then, 180.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42- Shall we go for it? - Let's grab a deal.
0:19:42 > 0:19:46- You wanted quality, didn't you. - We wanted quality.- And we wanted silver.- Yes.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50- And we like a drink.- Oh, yes! - So all you have to say now is, "Thank you, Mark."
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- Thank you, Mark.- Thank you, Mark.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Ah, butter wouldn't melt in his mouth.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57- Thank you very much, sir. Very kind of you.- Thank you very much.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00The boys have done it.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02What do you like about this one? Come on, Paula.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06I like the fact we've only got three minutes left and it's something to talk about!
0:20:06 > 0:20:11- I don't like that we've got three minutes.- It could be useful for fishermen, things like this.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12Their little days out.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Sandwiches...
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- thermos...- Yep.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20In its original case, which is very good.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Date-wise, 1950.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24You hit the nail on the head when you said fishermen.
0:20:24 > 0:20:31- Yep.- Fishermen could go out and spend thousands of pounds on vintage reels
0:20:31 > 0:20:34so you're out there, fishing with something worth a fortune,
0:20:34 > 0:20:36and you've got soup and sandwiches,
0:20:36 > 0:20:40you don't want them out of plastic, you want them out of something like that.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42What would be the best on this one?
0:20:42 > 0:20:45- 45 quid's the death on it.- 45.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47We have one and a half minutes left.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50So, have we got anything in reserve?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52Are you fluttering your eyelashes?
0:20:52 > 0:20:55It's working for me. Don't know why, but yeah!
0:20:55 > 0:20:58- It doesn't change the price, though. - 40?- It's got to be 45.- Two?
0:20:58 > 0:21:02- Basically, the biggest thing it's got going for it... - A very handsome seller!
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Ah, look at that!
0:21:05 > 0:21:06It's still the same price, though!
0:21:08 > 0:21:0930 seconds.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13- Yep.- Yeah, go on. - That's it. You're done! You're done.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Oh, stress!
0:21:15 > 0:21:18- Stress.- I need a gin and tonic!- The gin and tonic's on me. How's that?
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- Yeah.- Great.- Come on. As much as you can drink.- In my thermos flask!
0:21:22 > 0:21:25I beg your pardon? Yes, you're quite right.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Time's up. Let's check out what the red team bought, eh?
0:21:29 > 0:21:32# There's a hole in this bucket, dear Paula, dear Paula... #
0:21:32 > 0:21:34But that's because it's an oak planter.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36£50 paid.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Will this pepperette in the shape of a carp
0:21:38 > 0:21:40sink or swim at the auction?
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Let's not carp on about it.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45At the last moment, they bought a thermos flask and a sandwich box
0:21:45 > 0:21:48in a carry case. Cor, what a carry-on!
0:21:50 > 0:21:53- That was close.- Close, and an eclectic mix, I think.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57Hey, you'll cut it too fine one of these days, you know!
0:21:57 > 0:21:59You won't get that third item.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01One day that might happen.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04It will, the way you lot are going on!
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- Did you have a nice time?- We did. - Lovely time, thank you.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10And you spent overall a grand total of what?
0:22:10 > 0:22:14- £140.- 140. I would like £160, please.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16- Thank you very much.- There you go.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19£160. Look at those black nails! £160.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Not yours, David!
0:22:22 > 0:22:26- You're too clean.- Well, Saturday night.- You've got time!
0:22:26 > 0:22:30- What are you going to do with that lot?- I'll try and blow the lot, Tim. - Yes?- Yeah.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32You know how to do that kind of treatment.
0:22:32 > 0:22:37- You'll probably get something Chinese.- You never know.- You never know. Cunning monkey!
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Good luck, girls. Good luck, Davido. Let's check out what the blue team bought.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44The boys made a sparkling start with a cheroot cutter in the form
0:22:44 > 0:22:47of a champagne bottle, for £50.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Then, holding back the big bucks,
0:22:49 > 0:22:52they bought a Belleek bell for £10.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56So they could pour their pennies into this silver-mounted spirit flask.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59All £180-worth!
0:23:00 > 0:23:03I'm very impressed with you. I thought I'd have trouble with you.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07- We're no trouble at all!- Listen, the trouble has yet to begin.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11- Darren, have a good time? - Fantastic, thank you very much.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14- Which is your favourite piece. - It's got to be the hip flask.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18- What about you, Toto?- I think the silver hip flask as well.
0:23:18 > 0:23:23- Is that going to bring the biggest profit?- No.- I think it is. I think it might fly.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27- Which do you think will do best, Darren?- I think the bell, even though it was cheap as chips,
0:23:27 > 0:23:29- we might make a profit. - Cheap as what?!
0:23:31 > 0:23:33- Cheap as what?!- Sorry.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Do you mean cheap as inexpensive fried potatoes?
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Clearly not watched the show for the last eight years!
0:23:38 > 0:23:41Thank you very much! Lovely.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- How much did you spend overall?- 240.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47- Who's got the money?- I have. - So £60 from Darren, please.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50- There you go, sir.- Up to the nose, fresh as a rose.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52What will you do with that, Mark?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Well, Tim, I think I've got something in mind
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- that's completely different to what they've bought.- How exciting! Well done.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02Well done. Almost as exciting is the gorgeous house we're about to visit
0:24:02 > 0:24:04somewhere in the West Midlands.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11Three miles west of Wolverhampton, actually, lies Wightwick Manor,
0:24:11 > 0:24:14built in 1888 for the Mander family.
0:24:14 > 0:24:19Wightwick is one of the few houses you can still see decorated with original furnishings
0:24:19 > 0:24:22and fabrics by Morris & Co,
0:24:22 > 0:24:25the firm founded by the 19th-century designer William Morris
0:24:25 > 0:24:29together with leading members of the pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
0:24:29 > 0:24:34Formed by a small group of anti-establishment artists,
0:24:34 > 0:24:37the Brotherhood took their inspirations
0:24:37 > 0:24:44from the styles in art before the 16th-century painter Raphael.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Hence their title, pre-Raphaelite.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51Because of the association between Morris and the Brotherhood,
0:24:51 > 0:24:56the Manders began acquiring pre-Raphaelite art from 1937
0:24:56 > 0:24:59and today, their collection can be viewed here
0:24:59 > 0:25:00in a highly appropriate setting.
0:25:00 > 0:25:06One of the founders of the decorative arts firm, Morris & Co,
0:25:06 > 0:25:12was Edward Burne-Jones who was also a lifetime friend of William Morris.
0:25:12 > 0:25:18Here we have a Burne-Jones painting dated from a late period,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20but it's an important work
0:25:20 > 0:25:24and it depicts a medieval love story.
0:25:24 > 0:25:30Here we have the young lovers on the right-hand side, embracing,
0:25:30 > 0:25:33and because it's a Pre-Raphaelite painting,
0:25:33 > 0:25:35the backdrop is appropriate.
0:25:35 > 0:25:40We've got an ancient doorway carved with puteaux,
0:25:40 > 0:25:43we've got an entwined briar rose
0:25:43 > 0:25:47which is illustrative of the theme of the story.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51The transient and fleeting nature of love itself
0:25:51 > 0:25:57a theme only too familiar for both members of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
0:26:00 > 0:26:04It was the artists Millais, Holman Hunt and Rossetti
0:26:04 > 0:26:08who founded the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in 1848.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11And in this, the morning room,
0:26:11 > 0:26:15we've got an example of three of Rossetti's models.
0:26:15 > 0:26:20Any attractive woman that the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood artists spotted
0:26:20 > 0:26:25they termed as "a stunner" and tried to persuade her to model for them.
0:26:25 > 0:26:31The central character out of these three is thought to be Annie Miller.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34She was discovered by Holman Hunt
0:26:34 > 0:26:36working as a barmaid in a slum.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39He effectively groomed her,
0:26:39 > 0:26:40not only to become a model,
0:26:40 > 0:26:43but also as a potential wife.
0:26:43 > 0:26:48In 1854, when he shoved off to the Holy Land on a painting tour,
0:26:48 > 0:26:54he pleaded with her not to sit for any other artists,
0:26:54 > 0:26:56particularly not Rossetti.
0:26:56 > 0:27:01Rossetti had form. He seduced William Morris's wife
0:27:01 > 0:27:04and Holman Hunt didn't want any of that.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Actually, she did sit for him.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10She sat for him many times,
0:27:10 > 0:27:14and needless to say, never became Hunt's wife.
0:27:14 > 0:27:17Although Hunt's romantic plans came to nought,
0:27:17 > 0:27:21for the third founding member of the Brotherhood, John Everett Millais,
0:27:21 > 0:27:24a completely different ending was in store.
0:27:25 > 0:27:32This is a painting by Millais of Effie Gray, who married John Ruskin in 1848.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36John Ruskin has a problem with regard to women.
0:27:36 > 0:27:39It's thought his only vision of a woman
0:27:39 > 0:27:45was what he had experienced from examining closely classical marble statues.
0:27:45 > 0:27:51Having married Effie, on his wedding night he discovered she was not necessarily smoothly textured
0:27:51 > 0:27:53in every department.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56That discovery horrified the man
0:27:56 > 0:28:01and as a result it's thought that their marriage was never consummated.
0:28:01 > 0:28:08This painting was painted by Millais in July 1853 on a trip to Scotland.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10It was commissioned by John Ruskin.
0:28:10 > 0:28:18Unbeknown to him, Millais and Effie had developed a passionate relationship.
0:28:18 > 0:28:23And she shortly ran off with Millais, causing a tremendous Victorian scandal.
0:28:25 > 0:28:31Here she sits, though, demurely with Scottish foxgloves in her hair
0:28:31 > 0:28:34doing a bit of tatting.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36The big question today is, over at the auction,
0:28:36 > 0:28:41are our contestants' lots likely to be causing a grand scandal?
0:28:53 > 0:28:56I can't tell you how nice it is to be in the heart of Nantwich.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58Peter Wilson's auction house. How lovely to see you.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01- Nice to see you, Tim. - We've got the oak planter here.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05It is what it says on the tin, as it were,
0:29:05 > 0:29:07it is just an oak banded planter.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11It's a perfectly decent practical thing for using round the house.
0:29:11 > 0:29:15- Is that worth a £10 note? - I think it's worth a shade more.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17- I think about 30 or £40.- Do you?
0:29:17 > 0:29:19- Well our lot paid £50.- Did they?
0:29:19 > 0:29:22And moving on, the wee pepperette
0:29:22 > 0:29:25which I have to say I think is charming.
0:29:25 > 0:29:29Yes, a pretty thing, very nicely made.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31But there's no hallmark on it.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34We can only call it white metal. It's beautifully made.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38- Looks kind of Chinese, Japanese, to me.- Yes, it could easily be.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41That would explain, perhaps, it having no marks.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45- What do you think it's worth? - 50 to 80.- £45 paid.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48We've got a sandwich box and a thermos flask.
0:29:48 > 0:29:52Is it collectable? I think if you've got a vintage or classic car,
0:29:52 > 0:29:55you might well be interested in having that on the back seat.
0:29:55 > 0:29:58- So it's sort of automobilia, really, more than anything else.- Yes.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00What might it bring on a good day?
0:30:00 > 0:30:05- 20 to 30.- I was afraid you'd say that. They paid 45.- Oh, did they?
0:30:05 > 0:30:08It seems to me there are two dark pits there,
0:30:08 > 0:30:11which means they'll need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15- Paula and Jill, ready for this? - Yes.- Can't wait!- Absolutely!
0:30:15 > 0:30:21You gave David Harper £160 and he's clearly excited about revealing all.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Well, it's not a very big one, but I hope you'll like it.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31- They definitely want to touch it! - OK. Yes.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34- Let them hold it. - And it's not Chinese, Tim!
0:30:34 > 0:30:36It's a heavy fish. Set on a base.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40Very vintagey, circa 1950s, 1960s.
0:30:40 > 0:30:43- Would you like a feel? - I would. Thank you!
0:30:45 > 0:30:48- Do you like it?- It's not something I'd have in my own house,
0:30:48 > 0:30:51- but we trust your judgement. - Paula, what do you think?
0:30:51 > 0:30:54I wouldn't have it in my home, like Jill said. But...
0:30:54 > 0:30:58- So two rejects on whether you'd have it at home, David.- Yes.- Yes.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01But on the other hand, is it in good condition?
0:31:01 > 0:31:03- Ooh.- Are all those twiddly bits there?
0:31:03 > 0:31:07- I would say, Tim, it is 100 per cent.- There you go.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10- How much did you spend? - 140, Tim, I spent.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13The big thing is, girls, you don't have to decide right now.
0:31:13 > 0:31:18- Hold that thought.- Thank you.- Let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Dave's lamp.
0:31:19 > 0:31:22Well, there's a tasteful object for you, Robert.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26Murano glass, obviously this Italian-made glass.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30- Here we have this table lamp which...- Appropriately, it's red.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33- Couldn't be better. - What's the condition like?
0:31:33 > 0:31:36I can't see any damage on it at all.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40Which, to be fair, is quite rare.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43If you're into it, it's quite an impressive piece.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46I'm sure there'll be somebody in the audience that will like it.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50- What's your estimate?- 30 to 40. - £140.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54I'm going to have to work hard, is all I can say!
0:31:54 > 0:31:56A man can only do what a man can do.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59That's it for the reds. Now for the blues.
0:31:59 > 0:32:03- The Victorian and white metal cheroot trimmer.- Yep.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06It's in the shape of a champagne bottle.
0:32:06 > 0:32:11I have looked up the kite mark on it, which is for 1883.
0:32:11 > 0:32:15A marvellous thing to whip out of the pocket and trim the cigar or cheroot.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- So what's it worth?- 30 to 50.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19- OK. They paid £50.- Did they?- Yeah.
0:32:19 > 0:32:22So what do you think of the Irish leprechaun?
0:32:22 > 0:32:27A later piece of Belleek with the brown transfer mark on it,
0:32:27 > 0:32:31it's not the most collectable piece of Belleek that I've ever seen.
0:32:31 > 0:32:35- What's your estimate?- 20 to 30. - Fine. They only paid £10. - Did they? Ah, well.
0:32:35 > 0:32:39- Now, the hip flask.- Some people will look at that and say,
0:32:39 > 0:32:41- "That is rather nice. A lovely accessory."- Yeah.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45- What's your estimate?- I put 60 to 80 on it.- You're joking with me!
0:32:45 > 0:32:48- Is that all?- I'm trying to be serious, Tim.- Are you?
0:32:48 > 0:32:50No, seriously, is that all it's worth?
0:32:50 > 0:32:52That's what I've put on it, yes. They paid?
0:32:52 > 0:32:54- 180.- Did they?
0:32:54 > 0:32:57So they'll need the bonus buy. Let's go and have a look at it.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02Now, Tony, Darren, this is the moment where you discover
0:33:02 > 0:33:05whether Mark Stacey spent 60 of your pounds sensibly or not.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08- Mark?- Tim.- Ooh!- Ooh!
0:33:09 > 0:33:11No. It's in two parts.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14- I'll give you the bottom bit. - Thank you very much.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17It's very delicate. I love this little flower work here.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19This is plique-a-jour enamel.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22So it's metal which has had this fine enamel put in.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24It's very translucent when you hold it up.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27- It's very nice.- It is nice. - I like that.- It is very nice.
0:33:27 > 0:33:29How much did you pay for this?
0:33:29 > 0:33:33- I think a rather modest £28. - Really?- How much?
0:33:33 > 0:33:37- 28.- Is that all?- Yes. - It's a fantastically delicate
0:33:37 > 0:33:41incredibly intricate, very, very difficult to make.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43- You're impressed, Toto? - I'm impressed.
0:33:43 > 0:33:49Just treasure those words. We'll find out what the auctioneer thinks about Mark's little box.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54Look at that, Robert. Look at the work in that.
0:33:54 > 0:33:58It's an amazing thing. Plique-a-jour, meaning "letting in light".
0:33:58 > 0:34:03This was a technique whereby they were using wirework
0:34:03 > 0:34:07- and then filling the wire areas with glass or enamel.- Yes.
0:34:07 > 0:34:13And this is all pierced with these chrysanthemum heads here.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16If anybody twigs that, how difficult it is to make,
0:34:16 > 0:34:20and how beautifully it's remained in good condition,
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- they'll pay a bob or two for it. - Let's hope so, yes.
0:34:23 > 0:34:24How many bob do you reckon?
0:34:24 > 0:34:2630 to £50.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Anyway, Mark Stacey, who's no fool, paid £28.
0:34:29 > 0:34:33- Mark's a clever chap, so it's a nice thing.- You're a clever chap, too!
0:34:33 > 0:34:34Thank you so much.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37Better to butter him up before the auction than afterwards!
0:34:37 > 0:34:40- Anyway, good luck, Robert! - Thank you very much, Tim.- Thank you.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44At £28. It's there. £28. It will be sold. At £28, then.
0:34:44 > 0:34:45£28.
0:34:45 > 0:34:51- Paula and Jill, how are you feeling, you lovelies?- Excited. - Yes. Very excited.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53First up is your planter, and here it comes.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55Lovely.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59Now this lovely oak planter with steel bands on it.

0:35:02 > 0:35:0322 is there now? £20 I'm bid.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Oh! Do you know what, though? It could have been worse.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40- Could have been worse. True. - He worked it hard. - Minus 20 is bad enough.
0:35:40 > 0:35:45- Here comes the pepperette. - 109 is this delightful carp fish.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47£50 I'm bid straight away. 55 is there now?

0:36:07 > 0:36:10- Sold at 70.- Plus £25. £25 profit.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12You were minus 20, you're now plus five, girls.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15- Woo!- You're going forward.
0:36:15 > 0:36:16110 is the lot number.
0:36:16 > 0:36:19£20 I'm bid for this straightaway.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32- At £35.- 40!

0:36:38 > 0:36:4145 is there now? 45. 50 now?

0:36:54 > 0:36:56- What are you going to do about the lamp post?- Oh, dear.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00- Oh, David.- I know what's coming here. I have the sense.

0:37:42 > 0:37:44- I'm sorry.- I'm very sorry.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46Your pride must be a bit hurt.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48- Listen, girls.- I'm used to it, Tim.
0:37:48 > 0:37:50- That's minus 100 there.- Wow.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52But because you were clever enough not to go with it,
0:37:52 > 0:37:56- I have to tell you you are plus five.- Wa-hey!- Woo!
0:37:56 > 0:37:58- Plus five!- So that's £2.50 each!
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Bus fare home.
0:38:00 > 0:38:01Half each.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04Listen, you two. Don't say a word to the blues.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06That could be a winning score, seriously.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08But you are going home with money in your pockets
0:38:08 > 0:38:11and that is an achievement on this show!
0:38:17 > 0:38:19So, guys, do you know how the reds did?
0:38:19 > 0:38:21- No.- No.- Good.
0:38:21 > 0:38:25First up is the cigar cheroot cutter. Here it comes.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27Lot number 130,
0:38:27 > 0:38:31this champagne-shaped cheroot cutter,

0:39:05 > 0:39:08- 42.- £42. Well done.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- And no cigar.- That's minus £8.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13What a shame.
0:39:13 > 0:39:15A piece of Belleek. There we are. The Belleek bell.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18£20 to start it off. At £20 you can't go wrong. £20.
0:39:18 > 0:39:2122 is there now? You can't let it sell for... 22.
