0:00:02 > 0:00:06Today, we've headed east to Norfolk, county home of Horatio, Lord Nelson

0:00:06 > 0:00:09and Britain's first Prime Minister, Sir Robert Walpole.

0:00:09 > 0:00:14Let's hope that our teams today are going to make a bit of history

0:00:14 > 0:00:18and let's go bargain hunting, yeah!

0:00:42 > 0:00:45So here we are at the Norfolk Showground.

0:00:45 > 0:00:49Let's hope that our teams are going to be able to unearth some valuables

0:00:49 > 0:00:51that might be fit for a king.

0:00:51 > 0:00:54Let's take a quick peek as to what's coming up.

0:00:54 > 0:00:59- 'On the Blue Team, Jonathan is struggling to keep up...' - Pulling out hair.- What is it?

0:00:59 > 0:01:02He don't know what it is!

0:01:02 > 0:01:04'..while the Reds are racing ahead.'

0:01:04 > 0:01:08260. Any advance on £260?

0:01:08 > 0:01:10That's amazing.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13'Oh, goody! Let's meet these teams.'

0:01:15 > 0:01:19For the Reds today, we have Rosemary and Norman who are married.

0:01:19 > 0:01:23And here's a clue as to what Norman does. Over to you, Norm.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29O-o-o-o-oyez!

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Welcome to Bargain Hunt!

0:01:32 > 0:01:35O-o-oye-e-ez!

0:01:35 > 0:01:38- Right then. - LAUGHTER

0:01:38 > 0:01:42- Thank you very much...- That's all right.- ..Norman, for that.

0:01:42 > 0:01:43Lovely.

0:01:43 > 0:01:48And for the Blues, we've got Jeanette and Piers

0:01:48 > 0:01:53who, apparently, are mother and son which is very nice too.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56- A very warm welcome to everybody. - Thank you.

0:01:56 > 0:02:02Now, Norman, you're clearly incredibly well established as a town crier.

0:02:02 > 0:02:08If you've got any voice left to you at all, would you mind telling me what else you get up to?

0:02:08 > 0:02:12Well, I'm also a non-stipendiary minister

0:02:12 > 0:02:16and I actually used to work with the church in all ways,

0:02:16 > 0:02:19doing marriages, baptisms and burials.

0:02:19 > 0:02:25Lovely. But before you became a priest, you've had a variety of careers, haven't you?

0:02:25 > 0:02:29Yes, I have. I started off my career as a state registered nurse,

0:02:29 > 0:02:34then I went into the army for 11 years, in the RAMC.

0:02:34 > 0:02:41When I came out of that, I became a probation officer and worked at HM Prisons for over 20-odd years.

0:02:41 > 0:02:46- A lot of porridge.- Absolutely. - Yeah.- Not many people can do more of a sentence than that.

0:02:46 > 0:02:51Rosemary, this is an extraordinary man that you've got hold of here.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54How did you actually hook up then?

0:02:54 > 0:03:00It was leap year and being leap year, we ladies have certain advantages, so I proposed to him.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03But Norman felt that it had to be done his way as well,

0:03:03 > 0:03:08so he asked a pilot at the local airfield if he'd take us on a spin.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12I was not told very much information apart from, "Bring your passport."

0:03:12 > 0:03:18We ended up in Le Touquet and on bended knee, outside a French restaurant, he proposed to me.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21- And I accepted.- How sweet! How did the French take it,

0:03:21 > 0:03:26a couple of eccentric English doing proposals outside their restaurants?

0:03:26 > 0:03:30- Can you imagine? - MIMICS FRENCH SPEECH

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- And so on. It was amazing. - Fantastic. Great fun.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36That's got all that sorted out. And very good luck.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41- Now, Jeanette and Piers, wasn't that shout impressive? - Very.- How can we follow that?

0:03:41 > 0:03:46I know. We can talk to you, Piers, about what you're doing at university.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51- I'm a dental student at Bristol University.- What inspired you to go into Dentistry?

0:03:51 > 0:03:57When I was eight, I learned that Queen Hatshepsut died of a dental abscess in 1457 BC.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01It spread through her laryngeal cavities and she died.

0:04:01 > 0:04:06It got me really interested in it and went into American forensics and that sort of stuff.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Egyptology is also one of your strands, is it?

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Yeah, a bit of a nutcase, but there you go.

0:04:12 > 0:04:18So when you're not extracting or filling or learning about these things, what are your hobbies?

0:04:18 > 0:04:21I'm a ballet dancer, tap dancer.

0:04:21 > 0:04:27I sail, kayak, hot-air balloon, learn a few languages. Yeah, I keep myself busy.

0:04:27 > 0:04:33- How marvellous. You must be very proud of the boy.- I am.- Does he get it all from you?- Of course he does!

0:04:33 > 0:04:37- I hope so.- And what do you do for a living?

0:04:37 > 0:04:39- I work in HR. - And are you keen on Egyptology?

0:04:39 > 0:04:43Yes, I am. We've been there quite a few times.

0:04:43 > 0:04:49Every time we go, we take a hot-air balloon over the Valley of the Kings which is absolutely beautiful.

0:04:49 > 0:04:54So what is your tactical arrangement today? How are you going to beat the Reds?

0:04:54 > 0:04:58- Spend big to win big. - Are you going to spend the lot?

0:04:58 > 0:05:02- We hope so.- That's nice. We love that. Now for the money moment.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06- £300 apiece.- Thank you very much. - You know the rules.

0:05:06 > 0:05:11Your experts await and off you go and very, very, very, very, very good luck!

0:05:11 > 0:05:17Goodness only knows what's going to happen, eh? What, with all these Egyptians dying of dental problems?

0:05:17 > 0:05:20But someone with a great set of gnashers

0:05:20 > 0:05:24and ready to hound those bargains is Catherine Southon.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30Hoping to dig up some treasure for our Egyptologists is Jonathan Pratt.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35I'm feeling rather confident today.

0:05:35 > 0:05:41I've got the best researcher here on my right and I've got the power of the Lord on my left.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45- What can possibly go wrong? - Absolutely nothing.

0:05:45 > 0:05:51- You're an Egyptologist.- That's me. - And you've brought your mummy! - LAUGHTER

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Oyez!

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Fill your boots.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Anything goes, more or less.

0:05:57 > 0:06:01And wasting no time, Catherine's got a touch of puppy love.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06I thought the dog whistle was quite sweet.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08Gosh!

0:06:08 > 0:06:10It's quite nicely modelled.

0:06:10 > 0:06:14There's no hallmark, English hallmark on it,

0:06:14 > 0:06:16but it is stamped on the ring 925.

0:06:16 > 0:06:19- It's rather nice, though. - It is actually.

0:06:19 > 0:06:22What can you do on that? What's your best price on that?

0:06:22 > 0:06:25To you, the best I could do would be 40.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28So if it was to anybody else, you could do 30?

0:06:28 > 0:06:3130's a good price.

0:06:31 > 0:06:36I quite imagine 30 is a good price for that lovely silver whistle. Goodness me!

0:06:36 > 0:06:38You've got a lovely sun tan.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41- Have you got dogs?- I have. - Would you have it?

0:06:41 > 0:06:44Yeah, I think I would. It would be great.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46And how much would you pay for it?

0:06:47 > 0:06:51- Hmm... 30, 35.- Yes.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54< I think 35. Do you think we'll make a profit on that?

0:06:54 > 0:06:56I would certainly hope so at 35.

0:06:56 > 0:07:00- I should think so because it's just a bit of fun.- Yeah, it's great.

0:07:00 > 0:07:0335? Go on.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- 35? Yeah... - It's a little bit lean, but...

0:07:06 > 0:07:11- And you're a good man.- Yeah, fine. Let's do it.- Wonderful. Lovely.

0:07:11 > 0:07:15- One down, two to go. We're off! - BLOWS WHISTLE

0:07:15 > 0:07:20Don't worry, my fluffy friends. It's just Norman wetting his whistle.

0:07:21 > 0:07:25- Come on down, the price is right. - Wrong show, actually.

0:07:25 > 0:07:29Jonathan, what about the writing, um...? No?

0:07:29 > 0:07:34- Every show has a writing slope. - I think they'd be good with iPads because of that slope.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36I like your thinking, Jeanette.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38- You've got knees, haven't you?- Yeah.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43- That JP is such a killjoy! - I tend to prefer to use my knees.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47- What do you think about this big chunk of wood?- It's enormous.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Fruit bowl? What would you use it for?- It'd be ideal for christening.

0:07:51 > 0:07:55Our teams certainly know how to put these collectables to good use.

0:07:57 > 0:08:01- It's actually quite hard work, isn't it?- It's terribly hard work.

0:08:01 > 0:08:07You've got to spot that little jewel amongst everything else. There's so much to look at.

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Talk about spotting a gem, look what I've found!

0:08:11 > 0:08:14How bizarre is this!

0:08:17 > 0:08:19Isn't that extraordinary?

0:08:19 > 0:08:22Have you ever seen the like of it?

0:08:22 > 0:08:24A snakey.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27Now, I have come across these things before.

0:08:27 > 0:08:31Made at the time of the First World War Dardanelles campaign

0:08:31 > 0:08:34by the Turks and the Brits in captivity,

0:08:34 > 0:08:37but they're always beadwork,

0:08:37 > 0:08:41there's always an articulated core covered in beads.

0:08:41 > 0:08:48Never in my long life have I ever seen a snakey quite like this.

0:08:48 > 0:08:53What we've got is literally thousands of pieces of paper

0:08:53 > 0:08:57that have been strung together with a bit of cord up the middle

0:08:57 > 0:09:01to make this thing so bendy and articulated.

0:09:01 > 0:09:05Look at each of these pieces of paper when I peel them back

0:09:05 > 0:09:10and you'll see that each of the thousands of pieces is actually a postage stamp.

0:09:10 > 0:09:13There's a Penny Red, look.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15There's a Two Penny Blue.

0:09:15 > 0:09:21These are all stamps that date from between about 1840 and 1860.

0:09:22 > 0:09:29And then to start and finish it, we've got a bit of silk and felt embroidery.

0:09:29 > 0:09:36Well, I've seen this type of embroidery before, both in Egypt and in India.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40So what's happened is the clerk in the embassy

0:09:40 > 0:09:44or the clerk in the bank or wherever he's working

0:09:44 > 0:09:49has had hundreds of letters appear from old Blighty

0:09:49 > 0:09:52and the clerk hasn't thrown one of those letters away,

0:09:52 > 0:09:55not until he'd hacked the postage stamp off it.

0:09:55 > 0:10:02Never have I seen the like and I doubt the like exists anywhere else in the world.

0:10:03 > 0:10:09What would this maverick and bizarre object cost you today?

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Well, it could be yours for £30.

0:10:12 > 0:10:17That's what I call "first-class post".

0:10:17 > 0:10:21Now, will our team soon be making some speedy deliveries?

0:10:22 > 0:10:27- Oh, this is lovely. Gosh, it's huge, isn't it?- Where do we start?

0:10:27 > 0:10:30Have a rummage.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Not a local name to me, but I still quite like it.

0:10:33 > 0:10:37It's big and it's bold and it could be useful as well.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40- Excuse me. How much is the lamp?- 95.

0:10:40 > 0:10:44- Is that the best you can do? - I would do 80 and that's it.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47- I was thinking more about 50. - No, I'm not.

0:10:47 > 0:10:52- That's something you must be familiar with, an anointing spoon. - Absolutely, yes.

0:10:52 > 0:10:57So nothing on the horizon and Jonathan's getting twitchy.

0:10:57 > 0:11:03We've bought nothing. Another ten minutes goes and we've not bought anything, the pressure's really on.

0:11:03 > 0:11:08I saw the bits in there. Is that a silver compact?

0:11:08 > 0:11:12- That's quite nice, that one.- It is nice with the dog.- Another dog.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16- Can we have a look?- I think that's quite sweet. What do you think?

0:11:16 > 0:11:20- Yes, it is.- It's Deco in style.- Yes.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23You can see these lines which are quite Deco.

0:11:23 > 0:11:27- It's in quite good condition. - I think it's quite fun. - I don't use them.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29- Do you not?- No.- Nor do I.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32You surprise me(!) There we are, it's got its puff.

0:11:32 > 0:11:37- A young lady of the 1930s would have used that.- Lovely, clear hallmark.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41We've got the leopard's head which tells us it was assayed in London

0:11:41 > 0:11:44and then we've got the date letter there for U.

0:11:44 > 0:11:50I cannot say exactly what the date is, but they have done it for us and said that it's 1935,

0:11:50 > 0:11:52so I think we can pretty much go with that.

0:11:52 > 0:11:56- That's really nice.- And you think we'd make a profit on that?

0:11:56 > 0:11:59It's all engine-turned and it's in nice condition.

0:11:59 > 0:12:04What would be your best price on that because it's a little bit punchy?

0:12:04 > 0:12:06- Very punchy.- I think 75.

0:12:06 > 0:12:13- Oh, that's quite a lot still. - Yes, yes. Would you be able to come down a little bit more?

0:12:13 > 0:12:1670 would be the very, very best, I'm afraid.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19What would really be your rock bottom on it?

0:12:19 > 0:12:22Between friends.

0:12:22 > 0:12:2465, that's it.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27- I think it's lovely. Yeah. I'm saying yes.- Good.

0:12:27 > 0:12:31That's two doggy delicious items snaffled up by the Reds.

0:12:31 > 0:12:36I tell you what. I think it's just lovely and I would buy that a million times over.

0:12:36 > 0:12:41Meanwhile, the Blues are struggling to buy anything ONCE over!

0:12:41 > 0:12:46Can you tell us a little bit about these two lamps you've got here?

0:12:46 > 0:12:52They must be late 19th century, maybe sort of 1910, port or starboard, the left and right of your ship.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56- Original glass.- What's your best price?- 265 on those.

0:12:56 > 0:12:59That's all our money gone in one fell swoop.

0:12:59 > 0:13:02- Can you tell me how much the little chest is?- 130.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05130. It's a little bit above our budget.

0:13:05 > 0:13:09- What did you wear when you were doing ballet?- Tights and Lycra.

0:13:09 > 0:13:12- Did you put your socks down there? - No.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Feeling a little insecure, JP? Come along, Jonathan. It's time to focus.

0:13:16 > 0:13:19I am going to back off on this.

0:13:19 > 0:13:24I need you to look at something, decide on something and I won't talk you out of it.

0:13:24 > 0:13:29At least they've got a plan. Now, what have our animal-loving Reds spotted?

0:13:29 > 0:13:33How do you play Splat The Rat? It's with a tube, isn't it?

0:13:33 > 0:13:36- It's a tube. It's like a drainpipe. - Right.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39- And it goes on to a stool.- Yeah.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44So the thing comes shooting down and you have a bat. As it comes out, you hit it.

0:13:44 > 0:13:49- Rosemary isn't convinced. It's just you and I on this. - Not as a third buy.- No.

0:13:49 > 0:13:54The thing that slightly worries me is we're being a bit snappy with our decisions.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58As soon as I pick up anything, Norman's bought it.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02The Blues, however, have found something without JP's help.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05What could you do for a job lot?

0:14:05 > 0:14:06Um...

0:14:07 > 0:14:0940 quid?

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- 25? - 30?

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- 27? - Oh, go on, 29.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18- 28? - All right then.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21We'll have it for 28. Thank you very much.

0:14:21 > 0:14:25- Thank you. - Jelly moulds.

0:14:25 > 0:14:32They're pretty much as you've said. They're jelly moulds. You could make pates or that sort of thing in them.

0:14:32 > 0:14:37- It's not exactly Egyptian treasures, but they're nice and shiny. - Yeah. Everyone loves jelly.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40- I've got another one here for you. - Oh, brilliant.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44- Are you throwing that in? Thank you very much.- There's five of those.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48Well, you can never have too many jelly moulds, can you?

0:14:48 > 0:14:51Half an hour gone, folks.

0:14:51 > 0:14:55We need to get our skates on because we've still got two more items to buy.

0:14:55 > 0:15:00However, the Reds are already on the hunt for their final bargain.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Catherine...

0:15:02 > 0:15:06- This looks nice. Do you know what it's made of?- It's pewter.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09I quite like all the different details here.

0:15:09 > 0:15:13- You've got little scallopy things down there.- It's £75.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16- We could get it down a bit. - I wouldn't...

0:15:16 > 0:15:20I'm feeling a sort of £30, £40...

0:15:20 > 0:15:23What's your best price on this?

0:15:23 > 0:15:25I could do that for 55.

0:15:25 > 0:15:29- You couldn't come down?- We're just trying to make a profit on it.

0:15:29 > 0:15:3150. Is that all right?

0:15:31 > 0:15:36- We were looking at 30.- I wouldn't... - That's what we were looking at.

0:15:36 > 0:15:41- It is nice. - I tell you what. You can have it for 45, OK?

0:15:41 > 0:15:44- You couldn't come down a bit more? - 35.

0:15:44 > 0:15:50He's so lovely, isn't he? What do you think? Do you want to go for it for 35 or do you want to look?

0:15:50 > 0:15:52And a cup of tea, that is! >

0:15:52 > 0:15:56- If you could just hold it for a few minutes... - Yeah, definitely.

0:15:56 > 0:16:02- You're a lovely man. Thank you. - We'll have a look around this stall. I'm clocking some nice things.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05Always good to have one up your sleeve for later.

0:16:05 > 0:16:10Now, the Blues can't fail to notice that time is ticking away.

0:16:10 > 0:16:15- Are you trying to sell them a clock? - Not at all.- I'm selling myself a clock. They're gorgeous.

0:16:15 > 0:16:20- There's two that we've spotted, Jonathan.- OK.- We've got this one.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Or the little German dog. - That's more of...

0:16:23 > 0:16:27- Quite fun.- Yeah, because people like little dogs and stuff and 1930s.

0:16:27 > 0:16:34Depends on the price. It might have been silver-plated at some point and it's been lovingly polished away.

0:16:34 > 0:16:39The base is very typically early 20th century, traditional shape.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43The fact that you've got this little figure of... Let's call it a pug.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45- It's something like that. - It looks puggy.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49- That's where the money is to a collector.- OK.

0:16:49 > 0:16:53- I quite like that, but...- Let's see what we can do on the price.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Have a word with the chap and see what he says.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58How much for the "doggie in the window" clock?

0:16:58 > 0:17:01I've got £85 on it...

0:17:01 > 0:17:04< And your best price would be?

0:17:04 > 0:17:06Is £60.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Would you do 50...please?

0:17:09 > 0:17:12- 55. - 53?

0:17:12 > 0:17:16- 57. - You said 55!

0:17:16 > 0:17:18- I know. - Let's go for 55.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21- 55. - Thank you very much.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Thank you. Lovely. Thank you.

0:17:23 > 0:17:28- I'm really pleased with that.- That's really nice.- Is that OK, Jonathan?

0:17:28 > 0:17:33- Of all the clocks that you're looking at, the one with the dog is the one to go for.- Thank you.

0:17:33 > 0:17:40A carefully worded answer there, JP, but animals are all the rage today. Look at that!

0:17:40 > 0:17:42What's your owl?

0:17:42 > 0:17:46- I like owls. How much is it? - He's got 150 on it.

0:17:46 > 0:17:50- < That can be cheaper.- That can be cheap? Can it be a fiver?

0:17:50 > 0:17:55- Not that cheap! - Let me just have a look at it.

0:17:55 > 0:17:58- Have a look at the... I'd like to date it, actually.- Yes.

0:17:58 > 0:18:01Would that have a hallmark on it? >

0:18:01 > 0:18:06- Yes, I would say it's probably early 20th century. - I could do that for 80.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09So what we've got here is a child's teether.

0:18:09 > 0:18:14This is mother-of-pearl and this would be the bit that the child would bite into.

0:18:14 > 0:18:18And then around here we've got the silver hallmark.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20- That or the other?- Yes...

0:18:20 > 0:18:25So at the moment we've got the fish at 40...35.

0:18:25 > 0:18:29- 35.- 35.- And this at 70, did you say?

0:18:29 > 0:18:33I'd do it for 70. That might give you a bit more chance.

0:18:33 > 0:18:39- You've reached your bottom on the owl, have you? - You can have it for 65, all right?

0:18:39 > 0:18:41- 60?- 60, all right.

0:18:41 > 0:18:46- I didn't hear what you said. What did you say?- That's all right, 60.

0:18:46 > 0:18:52- That was a helpful moment of deafness, Catherine.- So is it the fish plate or is it the owl?

0:18:52 > 0:18:54Fish or an owl? What do you want to do?

0:18:54 > 0:18:56I'm quite happy with both.

0:18:56 > 0:19:01- I'm going for the owl. I collect owls and I like owls.- I'll go with that.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04- The owl?- The owl. - The owl wins through.- Yeah.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07Well done, Catherine.

0:19:07 > 0:19:11Unlike the Blues' expert adviser who seems to have wandered off!

0:19:11 > 0:19:15- Is that a pigeon carrier clock? - A what?- A pigeon clock?

0:19:17 > 0:19:19- Yeah. £50.- 50?

0:19:19 > 0:19:24- Yeah.- Can you just lift it up? Is it working? Can we have a look?

0:19:24 > 0:19:26It just needs calibrating.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29Oh, gosh, it's got some weight!

0:19:29 > 0:19:35- How does that work?- So a pigeon has a ring on its leg and you release them. They fly around the country.

0:19:35 > 0:19:41- They come back. You put the ring in the side here.- OK.- And it tells you how far they've flown.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45OK. That sounds very interesting. Is it for pigeon racing?

0:19:45 > 0:19:50- Yeah, and fanciers.- Wow! What's your best price on that, please?

0:19:50 > 0:19:54- I could do it for 40. - We were thinking more about 25.

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- Oh, no.- What's this chap here?

0:19:57 > 0:19:5830?

0:19:58 > 0:20:03- Pulling out hair!- What is it? - < Split the difference, 35?

0:20:03 > 0:20:05What are you negotiating on?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07Come on, Jonathan, buck up!

0:20:07 > 0:20:10- This is a...? - He don't know what it is!

0:20:10 > 0:20:15- I've seen these things. Something makes me think about pigeons. Yes, exactly.- 35?

0:20:15 > 0:20:18Go in between. 37.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21- All right, 37.- Wonderful. - Thank you very much.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23- Thank you. - Twit-twoo!

0:20:23 > 0:20:26What a hoot!

0:20:26 > 0:20:30Oyez, oyez, oyez.

0:20:30 > 0:20:34I declare that time's up, bargain hunters!

0:20:34 > 0:20:38Why don't we check out what the Red Team bought, eh?

0:20:38 > 0:20:43'This silver dog whistle signalled the start of the Reds' shop,

0:20:43 > 0:20:45'bought in the first two minutes.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47'They gave another dog a home

0:20:47 > 0:20:50'when they chose this silver compact for £65.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54'And they kept the animal theme going to the end

0:20:54 > 0:20:58'with this teether in the form of an owl - £60 paid.'

0:20:58 > 0:21:04- Well, Stormin' Norman, how's it all gone? All right?- Wonderful. - Has it?- Had a really good time.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07- You're lucky to be with Catherine. - Absolutely.

0:21:07 > 0:21:12- OK, fine. How much did you spend all round?- I think 100...- £160. - You spent 160.

0:21:12 > 0:21:17- Who's got the £140 of leftover lolly?- That would be me.- Thank you.

0:21:17 > 0:21:22- Here we go, Catherine.- Thank you. - There's a nice wodge.- I've seen something perfect for you two.

0:21:22 > 0:21:27- Is it Biblical?- No.- Has it got anything to do with town crying?

0:21:27 > 0:21:29- No.- No!- No.

0:21:29 > 0:21:33- But it's elegant.- Ah!- Like our lovely Rosemary.- Thanks very much.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36- And it's practical like our Norman. - There we are.

0:21:36 > 0:21:40Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought, eh?

0:21:40 > 0:21:45'After lots of wobbling about, they settled on the jelly moulds for £28.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50'Yet another pooch was purchased with this timepiece.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53'And they flew in under the wire with this racing pigeon timer,

0:21:53 > 0:21:57'bought for £37. Coo! Coo-coo!'

0:21:57 > 0:22:00- Really groovy. Thank you very much. - My pleasure.

0:22:00 > 0:22:06It's not so often that you're told that your shopping is groovy, Jonathan, is it?

0:22:06 > 0:22:10- Well, you know...- From oh, young one, shortly to be of the teeth.

0:22:10 > 0:22:16- Brilliant. You've cut your teeth today, yes?- Definitely.- Had a nice time?- Brilliant. Absolutely amazing.

0:22:16 > 0:22:22- Have you led your mother astray? - I think I've been led astray by my mother!

0:22:24 > 0:22:29- How much did you spend? - We spent £120.- You spent 120. What did you spend?- We did.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31- Only 120?- I know, it's shameful.

0:22:31 > 0:22:36£180 of leftover lolly, please. That's a lot of housekeeping, isn't it?

0:22:36 > 0:22:41Fair enough. Going over to JP. I hope you're going to spend the lot, boy!

0:22:41 > 0:22:47- You never know your luck. I think I might just.- There's a little treat in store. Thanks, teams.

0:22:47 > 0:22:53Meanwhile, I'm heading off to Ham House which is, of course, one slice short of a sandwich!

0:22:55 > 0:22:59Beautifully situated on the River Thames not far from Richmond,

0:22:59 > 0:23:03Ham House is something of a feast for the eyes.

0:23:03 > 0:23:09Built in 1610, King Charles I gave the house to his chum William Murray in 1626.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Nice gift, eh?

0:23:18 > 0:23:26Perhaps the most impressive and magnificent space at Ham House is this, the Long Gallery.

0:23:26 > 0:23:33Popular with aristocrats as a space where you could take exercise in inclement weather,

0:23:33 > 0:23:38what William did in his time was to bring it bang up to date.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42He bunged up a couple of fireplaces, for example,

0:23:42 > 0:23:49and installed the classical pilasters which made this space look so very special.

0:23:49 > 0:23:54In a way, he traded comfort for style.

0:23:54 > 0:23:58With no fireplaces, it could get just a bit chilly.

0:23:59 > 0:24:05The Long Gallery was a place where Murray could impress guests with his important lineage

0:24:05 > 0:24:11by hanging portraits of his ancestors and inspire envy with some remarkable pieces of furniture,

0:24:11 > 0:24:13including some very fine cabinets.

0:24:15 > 0:24:19What is it that makes this thing so cool?

0:24:20 > 0:24:25Well, for something that was made in 1660 or 1680,

0:24:25 > 0:24:28graphically, the thing is just perfect, isn't it?

0:24:28 > 0:24:32To veneer the background in black ebony,

0:24:32 > 0:24:39so that every flower head and piece of foliage stands out so dazzlingly was so clever,

0:24:39 > 0:24:44apart from having the skill base, of course, of cutting all the materials.

0:24:44 > 0:24:49Then every bit of green foliage is made out of ivory

0:24:49 > 0:24:53that has been stained green, which is fantastic,

0:24:53 > 0:24:56and then the odd bit of detail, look.

0:24:56 > 0:24:59The flower heads in white ivory have been left white

0:24:59 > 0:25:04just so they stand out and give you that special thrill.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07And if we have a look inside, wow!

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Look at that!

0:25:10 > 0:25:13It's a bit cleaner, it hasn't faded

0:25:13 > 0:25:18and therefore you can see just the skill of all this that much more brilliantly.

0:25:18 > 0:25:23This is probably the work of a Frenchman, Pierre Golle,

0:25:23 > 0:25:28who specialised in this super-duper floral inlay.

0:25:29 > 0:25:36And now for something completely different - a chest on a stand, but from the Orient.

0:25:36 > 0:25:41The lacquer that has been used in this chest comes from Japan

0:25:41 > 0:25:46and there's a confusion often between Chinese and Japanese lacquer.

0:25:46 > 0:25:50Japanese lacquer is always asymmetrical.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53This lacquer is called Takamakie

0:25:53 > 0:25:57which is the build-up of layers,

0:25:57 > 0:26:00including charcoal and sawdust and lacquer,

0:26:00 > 0:26:06which is, after all, only hundreds of layers of thin varnish,

0:26:06 > 0:26:10so that it can be cut and carved in a textural way.

0:26:10 > 0:26:14It's a special piece for Ham House

0:26:14 > 0:26:21because it's recorded in the 1679 inventory as being in this room

0:26:21 > 0:26:23in this position,

0:26:23 > 0:26:25which is where it is today.

0:26:25 > 0:26:30That in itself would be nothing short of remarkable,

0:26:30 > 0:26:34except that out of the Ham archives,

0:26:34 > 0:26:40they know that a cabinet-maker called John Nix, in 1730,

0:26:40 > 0:26:46was charged with removing the lacquer panel from the top of this cabinet

0:26:46 > 0:26:48and re-using it to make a table.

0:26:49 > 0:26:53And yes, you've got it, here is the table.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56The survival of both pieces

0:26:56 > 0:27:03and the story and the documentary evidence has to be nothing short of miraculous,

0:27:03 > 0:27:10which is the theme that we hope will continue over at the auction today with our teams

0:27:10 > 0:27:15because I fancy they're going to need a bit of a miracle themselves.

0:27:19 > 0:27:25We've popped across to Diss, to TW Gaze's Saleroom, to be with Elizabeth Talbot. Good morning.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Tim, hello. Nice to see you again.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31- For the Reds, three little silver items.- Yes.

0:27:31 > 0:27:34First up, the continental silver dog whistle.

0:27:34 > 0:27:37No age to it, but good with the dog theme

0:27:37 > 0:27:42and a nice little collectable in a modern sense if you can't afford a Victorian one,

0:27:42 > 0:27:46so it won't be a lot of money, but it will be £50 to £70, I would have thought.

0:27:46 > 0:27:49Good. £35 paid, so that was a good buy.

0:27:49 > 0:27:55Next in this obsession with small silver items is the marcasite-encrusted silver compact.

0:27:55 > 0:28:01Indeed. And the obsession with dogs as well. It's rather charming with the little dog on the top.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04It's a good age, 1935, so it's very Deco in its period.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07It's a collectable piece, being a compact,

0:28:07 > 0:28:12and we're still hoping that the silver market will carry that through quite nicely.

0:28:12 > 0:28:17- To what extent will it carry it through?- Unknown until the day, but we think 120 to 180.

0:28:17 > 0:28:22- Do you really? £65 paid. - They did well there, I think. - That is cool, isn't it?

0:28:22 > 0:28:27- And probably a wise purchase because now they come up with an old owl. - Very clever!

0:28:27 > 0:28:30- But missing its circle off the end. - It's incomplete.

0:28:30 > 0:28:36Whether it was that or a bell or something, but it's lovely with the owls on it. It's in good condition.

0:28:36 > 0:28:41- It's not been squashed or stamped on or over-polished.- How much? - 40 to 60 on that one.

0:28:41 > 0:28:46- They paid 60.- It'll probably balance out.- It might well balance out.

0:28:46 > 0:28:50They probably won't need their bonus buy, but let's see it anyway.

0:28:50 > 0:28:57So, Rosemary, Norman, this is exciting. What did Catherine Southon spend £140 of leftover lolly on?

0:28:57 > 0:28:59I said practical and I said elegant.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02- You did say elegant. - And I have fulfilled, I think.

0:29:02 > 0:29:07- There we are. A very sweet miniature photo frame.- Oh, yes.

0:29:07 > 0:29:10It's probably French. It's continental.

0:29:10 > 0:29:14- But look at this enamel.- I like enamel.- Nice colour, all perfect.

0:29:14 > 0:29:19Are there bits missing in there? Should they have diamonds or something?

0:29:19 > 0:29:25No, not diamonds. They might have been little, semi-precious stones once upon a time. I don't know.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28- He's quite a "detail" man, Norman. - Oh, yes.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30- How much? - How much did you pay for it?

0:29:30 > 0:29:32For £30...

0:29:32 > 0:29:38- £30?- Yes.- That's not too bad. - He likes it more now. - Now I do, yes - £30!

0:29:38 > 0:29:40You're lovely!

0:29:40 > 0:29:42How much do you think we'll make on it?

0:29:42 > 0:29:47I think that's got potential to make £50, £60. Not profit.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49But it probably will make 50 or 60.

0:29:49 > 0:29:53You don't pick now. You choose later, should you want to,

0:29:53 > 0:29:58but let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's little frame.

0:29:58 > 0:30:01- Another sweet little object. - It is pretty.

0:30:01 > 0:30:05Very Art Nouveau influence with the fluid and florid cresting there,

0:30:05 > 0:30:08but it's nothing too exceptional, it's just pretty.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11Catherine paid £30 for it.

0:30:11 > 0:30:16- We've put £40 to £60 on it. Photograph frames are popular little collectables.- Quite right too.

0:30:16 > 0:30:19There is some hope there if the team go with it.

0:30:19 > 0:30:24We'll park those four small items and move on to something more chunky for the Blues.

0:30:24 > 0:30:28Jeanette and Piers, first of all, the decorative jelly moulds.

0:30:28 > 0:30:33They are decorative, but that's as much as you can say about them.

0:30:33 > 0:30:40They are not particularly old and people will recognise them as things they have hanging in their kitchen.

0:30:40 > 0:30:45- They're mass-produced.- How much for these five sad, modern jobbies? - £20 to £30.

0:30:45 > 0:30:51They paid £28, so they're in the right sort of ball game and they're quite fun for furnishing a kitchen.

0:30:51 > 0:30:57The mantel timepiece with the white metal pug dog on it, I've seen better quality examples of that.

0:30:57 > 0:31:01It's got nothing horologically important to the mechanism.

0:31:01 > 0:31:06If you like pug dogs or you're a dog lover, you might think it's charming.

0:31:06 > 0:31:12- We've put £30 to £40 on that.- Fair enough. They paid £55. And at that, I think it's a bit of an old dog.

0:31:13 > 0:31:17- Moving on with animals...- Yes! - Pigeons now.- Yes.

0:31:17 > 0:31:25It's been used. It's got the proud owner's name scrawled on the top, but it's not an exciting artefact.

0:31:25 > 0:31:28- It's just quirky. - How much?- 25 to 35.

0:31:28 > 0:31:33- Coo-coo!- You've been waiting to say that, haven't you?- £37 our lot paid.

0:31:33 > 0:31:39They're going to need some more seed corn, I reckon. Our bonus buy - let's go and have a look at it.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41- FRENCH ACCENT: - Jeanette, Piers...

0:31:41 > 0:31:44- We are excited about the bonus buy? - We are.

0:31:44 > 0:31:50- You gave JP a fortune - £180. - Terrible, isn't it? - What did the youngster spend it on?

0:31:50 > 0:31:55With £180 burning a hole in my pocket, I thought, "What the heck, I would..." Here we go.

0:31:55 > 0:31:59- Oh!- I'll hand one over there for a second.

0:31:59 > 0:32:04I'll just explain. What we have here is an Indian, white metal...

0:32:04 > 0:32:07White metal meaning silver, but not sterling standard.

0:32:07 > 0:32:10Indian, white metal sugar bowl and little milk jug,

0:32:10 > 0:32:13but it's sort of in a European shape

0:32:13 > 0:32:19and it's made at probably the latter part of the 19th century.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22- What did you pay? - I paid £180 for them.

0:32:22 > 0:32:27- I think they're very nice. - Really?- You don't like them? - I don't like them.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29What don't you like about them?

0:32:29 > 0:32:32- I don't know.- A bit too fancy? - Chintzy.- Yeah, fancy.

0:32:32 > 0:32:37- Fussy?- Yeah.- Old-fashioned? - That's the one.- OK.

0:32:37 > 0:32:43- But you like them, Jeanette? - I do. I must be chintzy, fussy and old-fashioned then!

0:32:43 > 0:32:46It can't suit everybody. What you want is profit.

0:32:46 > 0:32:51You don't choose right now. You choose after the sale of your first three items,

0:32:51 > 0:32:55but let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about JP's tea set.

0:32:55 > 0:32:58- These are exciting, aren't they? - I like these.

0:32:58 > 0:33:03It's the type of metalware which is finding a very steady market at the moment,

0:33:03 > 0:33:05so I like what I see here, yes.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08What do you think the two pieces are worth?

0:33:08 > 0:33:15- We've put on an estimate of £70 to £90.- JP paid £180 for the two pieces, so he really rates them.- Mm-hm.

0:33:15 > 0:33:21- Anyway, strange things happen at auctions, don't they? - Indeed they do. Let's hope they do.

0:33:21 > 0:33:25- That's what makes them so marvellous. Thank you.- Pleasure.

0:33:31 > 0:33:35- Norman, Rosemary, nice, busy saleroom we've got. - It looks crowded.

0:33:35 > 0:33:41- It's what we like to see, Norm. Any worries, Rosemary?- No, I'm really looking forward to this.

0:33:41 > 0:33:47- So are we. What about you, Norm? - I've put a deposit on my yacht already, so I'm excited.

0:33:47 > 0:33:52All right. Let's hope it doesn't turn out to be a rowing boat.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54Stand by then. First lot is the whistle.

0:33:54 > 0:33:57Lot 74 now. I have interest shown here.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59And I start at £12.

0:33:59 > 0:34:03- £12 bid.- Not much interest. - 15. 18. 20.

0:34:19 > 0:34:21Back wall at 75. Where's the 80?

0:34:21 > 0:34:26It's now downstairs at 75. Am I missing anybody at £75...?

0:34:26 > 0:34:29- Wow!- Look at that, £40!

0:34:29 > 0:34:31- Plus 40.- Thanks.- Super-duper.

0:34:31 > 0:34:37Lot 75 and I start at just £75. £75 is bid.

0:34:37 > 0:34:40- That's a profit already. - 80. 5. 90. 5. 100. And 10.

0:34:53 > 0:34:57Back to the front at 260. Any advance on £260?

0:34:57 > 0:34:59- £260?! - GAVEL BANGS

0:34:59 > 0:35:01- You have just made...- Wonderful.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04You have just made £195 profit!

0:35:04 > 0:35:09- That's brilliant.- That is unbelievable. Now, moving on...

0:35:09 > 0:35:14And interest on the sheet shown here. I start at £18. £18 is bid.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17£18 only. Where are you? 20? 20 bid.

0:35:37 > 0:35:39The gentleman at the back at 90.

0:35:39 > 0:35:42May I say 5 elsewhere? At £90.

0:35:42 > 0:35:45- Any advance...?- I'm so excited. - GAVEL BANGS

0:35:45 > 0:35:49- I don't know what we've made! - That's another £30.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53- So you have £265-worth of profit. - Good Lord!- Gosh!

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Listen, guys, you spent 160,

0:35:55 > 0:36:00- then you've suddenly from nowhere got £265 of profit. - That's staggering.

0:36:00 > 0:36:04- I'm just gobsmacked. - You're not the only one, Rosemary.

0:36:04 > 0:36:08- I think we all are.- We bought what we liked.- That is just so super.

0:36:08 > 0:36:13- What are you going to do with the photo frame? Are you going to risk £40?- Gosh!

0:36:13 > 0:36:18- Go for it.- You don't need to. You could just ring-fence the cash or have a tickle.

0:36:18 > 0:36:23- Let's go for it. - We'll have a tickle.- Have a tickle? - We believe in our expert.

0:36:23 > 0:36:27- I might let you down. - You haven't let us down so far.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30- We're going with the bonus buy. That's the decision?- Yes.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32And here comes the bonus buy.

0:36:32 > 0:36:36Lot 80, I start here at just £22.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38£22 bid.

0:36:48 > 0:36:53- 5...- Look at this, Catherine.- This is brilliant.- Where are you at 60?

0:36:53 > 0:36:55At 55 now. Am I missing anybody?

0:36:55 > 0:36:59At 55. It's on commission. It will sell...

0:36:59 > 0:37:02- £55.- Wonderful.- Catherine Southon,

0:37:02 > 0:37:06- you have just made £25 to top everything up.- Yippee!

0:37:06 > 0:37:10265, 285, that is plus £290.

0:37:10 > 0:37:15- Wow!- It's rather more than a rowing boat.- Absolutely. I was right.

0:37:15 > 0:37:19- Well done. Put it there, team. - Thank you.- Bless you.- Well done.

0:37:19 > 0:37:23- Don't say a word to the Blues.- No. - No point in spoiling their day.

0:37:29 > 0:37:34- Jeanette, how excited are you on the excited stakes? - I'm going to explode.

0:37:35 > 0:37:38- Is she like this often, Piers? - Yes, all the time.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41It's lovely having a mum like that, eh?

0:37:41 > 0:37:45First up, Jeanette, are your moulds, love, and here they come.

0:37:45 > 0:37:49Lot 96 now. I start here at £12. £12 bid.

0:37:49 > 0:37:5315. 18. 20. 2. 25. 28.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55And 30. 2. 35. 38. And 40. 2.

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- Look at that!- With me at 42. I'll take 5?- 42.

0:37:58 > 0:38:03At £42, the whole selection there at 42. Looking for 5...

0:38:03 > 0:38:07- Any advance? 45. 48.- Look, it's going on!- Still with me at 48.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Any advance on £48?

0:38:11 > 0:38:16£48 is plus £20. Jeanette, you're a genius!

0:38:16 > 0:38:19- Lot 97, I have four lots of interest on the sheets.- Four bids.

0:38:19 > 0:38:24And I start here at £30. £30 bid. At 30. I'll take 2.

0:38:24 > 0:38:2732, sir. 35. 38. And 40. 2. 45.

0:38:27 > 0:38:3045. With me at 45. Surely worth more.

0:38:30 > 0:38:33At 45. 48. And 50.

0:38:34 > 0:38:39- Back with me at 50.- Go on! - It's with me at 50. Any advance?

0:38:39 > 0:38:41- GAVEL BANGS - £50, you're £5 off.

0:38:41 > 0:38:46But very close. That is as close as you need to be. £50 is minus 5.

0:38:46 > 0:38:50Lot 98. What may I say for this one? Start me at 30?

0:38:52 > 0:38:5620 I'll take. Perhaps you don't know you fancy pigeons

0:38:56 > 0:39:00and perhaps you will do after today. Come on. £10 to start?

0:39:00 > 0:39:03Thank you, sir. 10. 12. 15.

0:39:03 > 0:39:0518. 20.

0:39:05 > 0:39:072... Go on.

0:39:07 > 0:39:13- Come on.- Coo!- He's not going to be intimidated. 22 to my right.

0:39:13 > 0:39:17Where's 5? Right-hand bid at 22. Looking for 5 elsewhere.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19- At 22. Are you all done? - I can't bear it.

0:39:19 > 0:39:24- GAVEL BANGS - £22 is minus £15.

0:39:24 > 0:39:30- Which means you're absolutely nowhere.- Are we back to zero?- You've wiped face.- We've got to have...

0:39:30 > 0:39:34- Oh, no!- This is £180 of investment now, isn't it?- This is ridiculous.

0:39:34 > 0:39:39All that work and trouble to be absolutely nowhere.

0:39:39 > 0:39:44- You're not pleased about this, are you?- No, I'm not.- I can see that. - Let's go for a massive loss!

0:39:44 > 0:39:49- Are you doing it or not? - Yes. Let's go for the real loss.

0:39:49 > 0:39:54You could park this and do nothing and make no profit and no loss and win at that.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57That's all right. We're going for it.

0:39:57 > 0:40:01- What's she like, eh?- You missed a subtle hint there, I think!

0:40:01 > 0:40:06- Anyway, you're doing it, aren't you? - Yes, we are.- OK, fair enough.

0:40:06 > 0:40:10- We're going with the bonus buy for certain.- Fingers crossed, Jonathan.

0:40:10 > 0:40:14Lot 102 now. I have interest on the sheet shown.

0:40:14 > 0:40:16And I start here at just...

0:40:16 > 0:40:19I'll start at £55.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22- 55.- £55 bid.- A long way to go.

0:40:22 > 0:40:2555 I do have. At 55. Where are you at 60?

0:40:25 > 0:40:2860 bid. 65. 70. 5.

0:40:28 > 0:40:3280. 5. 90. 5.

0:40:32 > 0:40:34100. 110. 120. 130.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37140. 150. 160 in the room.

0:40:37 > 0:40:40160 is now to my left. Looking for 70?

0:40:40 > 0:40:43At 160, it's still not dear.

0:40:43 > 0:40:48At 160. For two pieces, remember? At 160, are you all done?

0:40:48 > 0:40:52- Not too bad, not too bad. - Not too bad? I've just lost you £20.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55160, minus 20 equals, overall, minus 20.

0:40:55 > 0:41:02- It could have been a lot worse. - It could have been.- It could have been a lot worse. Come on.

0:41:02 > 0:41:08- Yeah.- And anyway, minus 20 could be a winning score.- You never know.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11No cocktails for tea then, is there?

0:41:11 > 0:41:14- No tea, actually. - LAUGHTER

0:41:19 > 0:41:25Well, I'm glad it's so amusing for the Blues and it's so amusing for the Reds.

0:41:25 > 0:41:29- Anybody at all been chatting about the score?- No.- No.- Not at all.

0:41:29 > 0:41:33This glorious afternoon brings us outside for a real celebration

0:41:33 > 0:41:38because one team has done extremely badly and one team has done extremely well.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41And the badly performing team are... the Blues.

0:41:41 > 0:41:46- Oh, dear!- I'm really sorry about this, Blues. Minus 20, yes?- Yeah.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49Not so hot. You started out plus 20.

0:41:49 > 0:41:54- I know. We did very well.- Then it all went down the old proverbial, so we'd better not dwell on that.

0:41:54 > 0:42:00- No.- But have you had a nice time? - Absolutely brilliant.- And you, Piers? - Absolutely brilliant.

0:42:00 > 0:42:04You're going to go green when I reveal the result for the Reds

0:42:04 > 0:42:10because after the same shopping experience, the Reds have managed to achieve a profit of £290.

0:42:10 > 0:42:16- Oh, well done!- £290 they're going home with...with profits.

0:42:16 > 0:42:19And they made a profit on absolutely everything

0:42:19 > 0:42:24which gives them entry to the ancient and noble order of the Golden Gavel!

0:42:24 > 0:42:28Rosemary, take your Golden Gavel and wear it with pride.

0:42:28 > 0:42:32- Norman...- Wow!- Isn't that special? - Absolutely wonderful.

0:42:32 > 0:42:39- And Catherine, something to add to your collection of Golden Gavels. - Thank you.- This is a special moment.

0:42:39 > 0:42:43- And I'll give you £290 to go along with it. £290?- Thank you.

0:42:43 > 0:42:48- That is a fortune.- It is. - And on Bargain Hunt, it's a triple fortune, I tell you!

0:42:48 > 0:42:55Unbelievable result! And I think a round of applause all round for the great success of the Reds.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59- Such fun. Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?- Yes!

0:42:59 > 0:43:04You're sitting there thinking, "I could have done better than that!"

0:43:04 > 0:43:07Well, what's stopping you?

0:43:07 > 0:43:11If you think you can spot a bargain, go to our BBC website and apply.

0:43:11 > 0:43:13It will be splendid to see you.
