0:00:04 > 0:00:09When television presenters come to Wales, they're normally made to say something in Welsh
0:00:09 > 0:00:12so they look really stupid,
0:00:12 > 0:00:15or have to do a long name that finishes in "goch goch goch".
0:00:15 > 0:00:20Anyway, none of that nonsense today, because we're here to go bargain hunting.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49We're just outside Builth Wells
0:00:49 > 0:00:51in the beautiful county of Powys.
0:00:51 > 0:00:56Here at the Royal Welsh Showground, they get up to all sorts of things.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Livestock sales, motor shows,
0:00:58 > 0:01:02even bee-keeping conventions.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06But the buzz today is all about antiques and collectibles,
0:01:06 > 0:01:10and two teams - the Blues and the Reds.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15On today's show the Reds start with fighting talk...
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- We're going to kick them into touch. - Game on! Come on!- Go on!
0:01:18 > 0:01:21..while the Blues dither, hither and thither.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25I'm not fussed, to be honest. Oh, God, it is really heavy, though.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Take it back!
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- Bling.- It's too blingy.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33- Am I being really fussy now? Yeah. - Yeah.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Will we have a surprise ending? Well, I'm not going to tell you, am I?
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Do you need a reminder of the rules?
0:01:40 > 0:01:43I tell you, it is as simple as this.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47They each get £300, shop for three items, and the team that wins
0:01:47 > 0:01:49makes the biggest profit or the smallest loss.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Easy, innit?
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Well, we're keeping it in the family today, because for the Reds
0:02:01 > 0:02:04we've got brothers Daryl and Chris, and for the Blues
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Amanda and Kirsty, mother and daughter.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- Hello. - ALL: Hi!
0:02:10 > 0:02:14Now, Daryl, you work as an engineer in a slag heap.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17In the steel works. That make slag heaps.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20That make slag heaps? So what have you got to do with a slag heap, then?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- I turn slag heaps into green areas. - How do you do that?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27We take the waste products from the steel industry, recycle what we can
0:02:27 > 0:02:29into footpaths and back into the furnaces,
0:02:29 > 0:02:32and then we make the areas green by grassing and turfing them.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Planting trees.- How lovely.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Chris, you're in construction, but you used to be in food.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41I did, yeah. I was general manager, a chef before
0:02:41 > 0:02:43in the catering industry.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Then I went into construction.
0:02:45 > 0:02:50It says here, Chris, that you go in for these talent impersonation programmes.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55- It was his fault, this was.- Was it? - I was only ten years old when I done it.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59- What did you do?- I done a Donald Duck impression. I was ten.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- Have you done it since?- Not really. I can have a go for you, Tim, though.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05What do you want to say? Let's go bargain hunting?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07- AS DONALD DUCK:- Let's go bargain hunting.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Not bad!
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Anyway, very good luck, chaps.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16Over to the girls now. Mother and daughter Amanda and Kirsty.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Amanda, how are you?- I'm OK, thanks.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21You've had a varied career, haven't you?
0:03:21 > 0:03:24You've worked as a psychiatric nurse in a prison.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- And you've also worked in an underwear shop.- Flexibility.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Flexibility in the underwear department.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34You can't beat that, can you?
0:03:34 > 0:03:38Tell us about the psychiatric nursing, because that must be tough in a prison.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40I've been doing that for the past three years now.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43I've been psychiatric nursing since 1984, so it's quite a long time.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46I absolutely really enjoy it.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48When you go towards the underwear bit,
0:03:48 > 0:03:51you used to have these parties, did you?
0:03:51 > 0:03:56I done a bit of that, yeah, to make some extra money years ago. The party side of it!
0:03:56 > 0:03:59So what exactly happens in those parties? I'm quite interested.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01You take away your underwear and your wares,
0:04:01 > 0:04:03and your information booklets
0:04:03 > 0:04:06on how to improve life for yourself and your partner.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Remaining happily married.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Was it successful, then, this venture?
0:04:12 > 0:04:15It was very successful, yes. It was quite time-consuming, though,
0:04:15 > 0:04:17and really, I was a nurse, so I went back to nursing.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Very good. Kirsty, you're a final year student, darling. What do you study?
0:04:21 > 0:04:25Studying costume construction for screen and stage.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30- Are you?- Yes, so I make like costumes for theatres and films.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32And things like that, which is really, really good.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Good fun. And unlike your mother with the underwear,
0:04:35 > 0:04:37you've got something that's a bit strange about shoes.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39No, I just like them!
0:04:40 > 0:04:42How many pairs of shoes have you got, truthfully?
0:04:42 > 0:04:45- Around about 100.- Have you?- Yeah.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47OK, fine. I think I'm getting the message.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51On that happy note, we move to the cash. £300 a piece.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53There's your £300. You know the rules.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Your experts await, and off you go.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00Very good luck. Underwear and shoes, eh? This is gonna be fun.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Our red dragons today will be on fire
0:05:03 > 0:05:05with the help of Welshman Chris Gower.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08For the Blues, he's brave, he's bold.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10He's David Barby.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16ALL: Come on, the Reds!
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- What's our game plan today?- We're gonna bash the nobodies.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22- Fantastic. Chris?- We're gonna kick 'em into touch.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24Game on! Come on.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27The game's about to begin. What are going to be your tactics with the other team?
0:05:27 > 0:05:31I think we're gonna have to kick them into touch, and get some early points on the board.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- That's what I like. What about you? - I hope they've got their protective gear on, cos they're gonna need it.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Yeah! I'm from the home of rugby,
0:05:38 > 0:05:41and I think the game should start now.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44What's all this kicking into touch business?
0:05:44 > 0:05:48We'll have none of that, thank you. Just a good, clean fight, teams.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52- Right, I thought we'd try over here. What do you think?- Yeah.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Yeah, so have you got anything in mind to collect today, you two?
0:05:56 > 0:05:58I was thinking of prices of silver and gold, I was.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Silver and gold, absolutely.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03If we could find some gold, that'd be great. How about you, Daryl?
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Some Doulton ware.- Doulton ware. Yeah.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- Some fine china.- Fine china. Quite specific, that.
0:06:09 > 0:06:10Quirky.
0:06:10 > 0:06:15We're only minutes in, and the Barby eagle eye has spotted something already.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Can I have a look at that object in that box?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Ooh. Is it silver?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- It is silver. It's just stamped silver on the back.- Is it American?
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- Probably.- Do you like that?
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- I really love that, yeah.- I'll put it on your shoulder.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Wow. That would look absolutely terrific on a black dress.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- Yeah.- A cocktail dress.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40- And I like the different-coloured stone for its eyes.- Rubies, yes.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42I think this is quite nice.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- How much is that one?- How much is this?
0:06:44 > 0:06:46- £40.- £40?!
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Is that the very best you can do? - £35.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- Can you split the difference at £32? - As it's you, all right.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Oh!
0:06:57 > 0:06:58Just handle that.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01I think you're very good at picking up the coloured stones of the eyes.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Mm, yeah, it is a bit different.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I think so, because it's silver, and it's got some quality.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- Yeah, I like that.- Kirsty, what do you think?
0:07:08 > 0:07:13Yeah, no, no. I like it's got the different coloured stones in the eye. That's what caught my eye.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15- The ruby.- What can you buy for £32?
0:07:15 > 0:07:18You couldn't even buy a night out, could you?
0:07:18 > 0:07:20No!
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Your taxi home.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Or just about.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26- No, I think we should go for that. - You want to go for it?
0:07:26 > 0:07:28What do you think it would go for?
0:07:28 > 0:07:32- I think you're going to make a profit on it. Probably not a lot.- Something.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34- But you're going to make a profit. - And it's pretty.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36OK. Our first try.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38- First try for us.- Yes!
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Thank you very much indeed.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Well done, Blues. A bird in the hand, as they say,
0:07:43 > 0:07:46but you're still going to need the two in the bush as well,
0:07:46 > 0:07:48so keep hunting.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Writing slope.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Campaign slope.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Originally they were meant to travel with serving officers.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58They would write their letters home here.
0:07:58 > 0:08:03This has been recovered. It isn't the original leather, but that doesn't matter.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05I love this one.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- Oh, wow.- I haven't seen inside that one.
0:08:08 > 0:08:13Let's have a look inside. That is really... This is General stuff, not lieutenant.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15- Lovely.- So, does it go by size?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- The bigger the box...- No, but it was the embellishment of it.
0:08:18 > 0:08:24- Is that genuine?- No, no. Invariably, the leathers are replaced. It doesn't last.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27- What sort of date?- I'd say about 1910.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Earlier than that. Much earlier than that.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- About 1870.- Miles off!
0:08:32 > 0:08:34It's about 1870.
0:08:34 > 0:08:37It's interesting you're drawn to this. Why are you interested?
0:08:37 > 0:08:40- I just like the history.- What we need now to do is find out the price.
0:08:40 > 0:08:45- Are we agreed?- Yeah.- Can you just help us here a minute?
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- Sure.- What's your price? What's the best you can do on it?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Now, I was looking for £170.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Best I can do on this is £140.
0:08:52 > 0:08:57I mean, this one is probably more saleable.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59The best I could do on that is £130.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- I'll do a bit better. £120.- We like you better.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04- £120.- Which one do you two like?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07- I like this one.- I like that one. I like that one.- Deal done.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- Great.- I'll shake this gentleman's hand.- Fantastic.
0:09:11 > 0:09:16- Thank you very much.- You're very welcome. Thank you.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18- Shall I carry it, or will you?- You carry on, mate. You carry on.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22Well done, Chris, but they might have offered you a bit of help.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24So that's one-all.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Is pretty china in your league?
0:09:28 > 0:09:31It would have to be something outstandingly beautiful.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Outstandingly beautiful... Right.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Beautiful is not as important as profitable, Amanda.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41- Let's hope there's more stuff like that.- At that sort of price.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47What I don't want is a situation where we've bought the first object,
0:09:47 > 0:09:51and then we don't buy another one for, say, three-quarters of an hour,
0:09:51 > 0:09:54and we have a panic situation. We buy the wrong thing.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57- Don't worry. We've got Kirsty with us. We'll be buying plenty!- Shoes.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02I'll hold you to that, David. We're nearly 15 minutes gone already.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06- I wanted to go in this one. I want your expertise, I do.- All right.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12Just see if there's anything. You're interested in anything to do with the Police. You were in the Police.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14No, in prison. Not the Police.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17The same thing.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20- I rather like that print at the back.- I can't see it properly.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Can we have a look at the print, please, sir?
0:10:23 > 0:10:26It's not the sort of Constable you'd hope to see at an antiques fair, though.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30That's quite good, actually. Good costume detail here.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33I think this dates from the early part of the 19th Century
0:10:33 > 0:10:35when the uniforms became regulation,
0:10:35 > 0:10:39and the origin of the police force was via Peel.
0:10:40 > 0:10:44So here we've have Peel, and you've got him meeting the Parish constable.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47You've got the new constable, and the old one.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51This is a hand-tinted lithograph. Looks like pencil drawings. What's the price on this?
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- £75.- Is that the very best you could do?
0:10:55 > 0:10:57You can have it for £70.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Have a look at that, because as we just came along this stall
0:11:00 > 0:11:02I saw something else here.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06I think that's quite good. What is this, sir, here?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09They're loosely called discovery sticks.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11- Yes.- But it's expensive.- How much?
0:11:11 > 0:11:12£900.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- TIM:- Back to the picture, David.
0:11:14 > 0:11:19- I can't afford that.- £900. That really is something very good.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22It is a lovely piece, but it's too expensive for us. Right...
0:11:22 > 0:11:24So we've got this at £70.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- I'm not sure.- I don't think it's expensive for what it is.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29But we can always come back to this.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Yeah, if we put a pin in it.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33- Put a pin in it?- Put a pin in it!
0:11:37 > 0:11:39I think that's super. Can we come back on that, sir?
0:11:39 > 0:11:41- Of course you can.- Thank you very much indeed.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44OK, Blues, go and investigate elsewhere,
0:11:44 > 0:11:46but watch the clock.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Oh, Doulton.
0:11:50 > 0:11:51I passed it several times.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- I like this idea.- Biscuit barrel.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- What sort of age would that be?- That looks Edwardian, or 20s.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Edwardian to 20s to me.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Two-handled biscuit barrel. Blue and white.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- That's the first good thing about that.- I like that. I really like that.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Blue and white. Always saleable. Nice bit of gilding around there as well.
0:12:10 > 0:12:15- What age is it?- I would say about 1910, 1920.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17And why the handle design?
0:12:17 > 0:12:21First of all, it's deliberately so, and it follows the shape, actually.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23If you look at that shape, of the solid body,
0:12:23 > 0:12:26the handle then follows that shape.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30It's quite clever, and it just adds interest to it as well as practicality.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34- It's a love jug, for partners... - Yeah, like a loving cup. Very nice.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- Do we like it, guys?- I like it.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- Who made it?- Doulton, is it?
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Oh, a Rolls-Royce of a mark here.
0:12:41 > 0:12:46Royal Doulton. Registration number, absolutely everything.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48What do you think it'd made at auction?
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- 60 quid?- Uh, about £80, £90, £100.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53So what about the price? It's £120.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56- It's too much.- It's steep.- It's very steep.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00It's got everything going for it, but this is almost full retail.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02It could only be attractive to us if it's really a lot lower.
0:13:02 > 0:13:07- I like the item a lot, I really do. - If it drops dramatically, we should...
0:13:07 > 0:13:10- Yeah.- If you want to hold this, I'll find out.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16There's no damage, it's a lovely colour.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19- It's really unusual.- It's somebody else's cup of tea. I don't like it.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21I'd have it in my house.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Guys, some nice news for you two.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25- What?- What do you think we can get it for?
0:13:26 > 0:13:28- £90?- £55.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30- It's ours.- Job done, then. Job done.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- In the bag?- In the bag, yeah, in the bag. Job done.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36£55?! It was £120 a minute ago.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38That's some serious haggling, Chris.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42But that's the way the cookie crumbles, I suppose.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- Let's go in here.- In here?
0:13:44 > 0:13:49- A quick look at each stall.- Yes.- Not much time.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53That's right, David. You're half an hour in.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55The birds are nice. I like that.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57- How much is that?- This is Worcester porcelain.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59- That is gorgeous, though.- That is nice.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Bear that in mind, because we want to look for something like this.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05- That is gorgeous.- It's got a small restoration on it.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08So I would imagine it's one of the handles that's been restored.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10How much would that make a difference in an auction?
0:14:10 > 0:14:12Quite a lot, quite a lot.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14People want perfect items.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Yeah, but perfection is so difficult to achieve.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19It took me ages (!)
0:14:22 > 0:14:24Is this Tunbridge ware?
0:14:24 > 0:14:26It LOOKS like Tunbridge ware, but it's not.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29This is Egyptian, or Moroccan.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32It's tourist ware.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Yeah...
0:14:35 > 0:14:39- No, it's a cigarette holder. Not for us.- No.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42That's right. No time for a holiday now, Reds, I'm afraid.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Still one more item for you chaps to find.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- I think we need to go outside.- Yeah.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51We're too crowded here. Go outside, and we'll go to those stalls over there.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Lovely.
0:14:57 > 0:15:01What is the last object going to be? What are we looking for?
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Anything quirky. I feel on the spot, cos I'm the last one.
0:15:05 > 0:15:10- What about a watch, or jewellery? - Jewellery? Yeah.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13We've got wood, we've got ceramic.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16Let's go for the full set, and go for metal or jewellery.
0:15:16 > 0:15:18- Metal and jewellery.- Metal and jewellery? All right?
0:15:18 > 0:15:21- Let's go and find some, then.- I'll follow you.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28How are you?
0:15:28 > 0:15:32- How's it been?- Not too bad. Stressful. Stressful.
0:15:32 > 0:15:37After a flying start with their eagle brooch, the Blues are now struggling.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40- Just scan it.- I've scanned.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42OK, move on to the next one.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45- Bling.- Oh, it's too blingy.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48- Am I being really fussy now? Yeah. - Yes.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52What did I tell you, David? We're nearly 45 minutes in,
0:15:52 > 0:15:55and you've still only found one item.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57Do you not like that? You feel the weight.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00It's heavy.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02It's a lovely piece of glass.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06I'm not fussed, to be honest. Oh, God, it is really heavy, though!
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Take it back!
0:16:08 > 0:16:10I think that is a very nice piece of glass.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13I think we should go back for the picture.
0:16:14 > 0:16:16Cos it's quite a way that way.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19It is, but we've still got to find another object.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21So all right, we'll go for the picture.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23- Yes.- Let's try the third object, though.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Come on, David. Do as you're told, boy.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29We've got into that difficult situation I thought we would do
0:16:29 > 0:16:33by buying early, and not finding anything else.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Right, just have another quick look.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38The Reds are looking for item number three,
0:16:38 > 0:16:40and it's Chris' turn to make their decision.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44I thought it were trench art.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47No, no. Trench art is much more primitive.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- These are designed and made. Do you like these?- I like these.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Well, they're French, they're art nouveau.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Brass. Quite light, and a pair.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59- Do you like these?- What sort of age would be on these?
0:16:59 > 0:17:031900. 1910. Typical nouveau.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- And what, they're for flowers?- Just for single flowers.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10They're decorative AND practical. I think they're lovely.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13- I don't know how much they are. I haven't got a clue.- No.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16We'll have to find out how much they are. A shame if it's out of our budget.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Yeah. There's me going on about it.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20This is really... He likes something.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22- This is...- The gentleman that's got the stall...
0:17:22 > 0:17:24- Shall I find out?- I don't know where he is.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27- I'll leave you guys.- Yeah. Do you like these?- Yeah.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30So we actually both like the same thing. That's a first.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34What's the damage, Chris?
0:17:34 > 0:17:37Well, I think the damage is very light.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41They kick off at £65, but he can sell them for £55.
0:17:41 > 0:17:44- The pair's a pair.- I like them.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47You could ask yourself, where have you seen another pair?
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- Never seen another pair.- I think we should...- I think they're really nice.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55On my head be it, cos you took the two. I'll take the last one.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58- Music to my ears, Chris.- I'm off to see the man, I'm off to see the man.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Job done, job done.
0:18:01 > 0:18:02Let's go.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Good work, Reds. Job done in 45 minutes.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09Hello, Blues. Is your constable still there, or has he been nicked?
0:18:10 > 0:18:12It's still here! Still here, guys.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Sorry, can I see the picture again, please?
0:18:15 > 0:18:17- Thank you very much.- Kirsty... Oh!
0:18:18 > 0:18:21Oh, dear, oh, dear. You like that?
0:18:21 > 0:18:24- Yeah. Go for it.- What price, sir?
0:18:24 > 0:18:26It was £75, and I said I'd do it for £70 for you.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28- Thank you very much.- Thank you very much.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- Thank you.- Hooray!
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Number three. Come on.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Thank you very much.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40Yeah, but don't celebrate too soon, Blues.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44You're still an item down. The Reds, though, can relax for now.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46- We got lucky.- Got lucky.- We saw things we liked.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49It harder than I thought. I watch all the time. "I could do that."
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Harder than I thought it was.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54Well, this show ain't a walk in the park, you know.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57And right now nobody knows that more than the Blue team.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00Just over five minutes, and one more item to find.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- This is the stall, is it?- This is the one.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06- That's the piece? Can you pick it up, have a look, please?- Sure.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10- Why do you like that?- I just like it cos it's all stacked, and you don't really...
0:19:10 > 0:19:13- It's unusual.- It's very much in the Japanese style,
0:19:13 > 0:19:17which was fashionable at that time - round about 1880, 1890.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- I just think it's really pretty.- The paintwork is so delicately done.
0:19:20 > 0:19:25It's had that restoration there, and we have a restoration here.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27It's £85.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30- What's the best you could do on that? - I'll do it for £65.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32- £65.- £65.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35- What do you think?- It's expensive if it's restored, isn't it?
0:19:35 > 0:19:39- Well, it is a lovely piece.- Shall we go for it anyway? We like it.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42At £65?
0:19:42 > 0:19:47- Is there any chance you could go to £60?- Yeah.- Oh, thank you very much.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51- I think we should do it.- We've got loads of money to spend on the bargain piece as well.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53I forgot.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56OK.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Crikey. If you bought these items when you first saw them
0:19:59 > 0:20:01you could have been in the pub by now, Blues.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03I feel like crying.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06OK, I'll go and get this for you.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Thank you.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13Tears of joy and relief, eh, David? Well done, Blue Team.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Time's up. Let's check out what the Red Team bought, eh?
0:20:18 > 0:20:22They kicked off with a large mahogany writing slope for £120.
0:20:24 > 0:20:29They then beat the price down on this Doulton biscuit barrel to £55.
0:20:29 > 0:20:34Finally, they bought this pair of French art nouveau vases for £55.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39So, I think we're happy, really, on the whole.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41- Yes?- Very happy, very happy.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43Ooh, I do love it when we have happy teams.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45You spent how much overall?
0:20:45 > 0:20:48- £230.- That is just magnificent.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50£230!
0:20:50 > 0:20:54- Were they difficult, Chris?- They were easy at first.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56- Then they got difficult.- Did they? - Yes, they did.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59They didn't know what they were doing towards the end, but finally...
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Typical brothers, typical brothers.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04OK, very good. So, I'd like £70 of the leftover lolly, please.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- I've got that.- You've got that? Thank you very much.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09You take it with one hand, and you give it away with the other.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11- Thank you very much.- What are you going to spend that on, Chris?
0:21:11 > 0:21:14I think, Tim, with these two, something quirky, I think.
0:21:14 > 0:21:17Very good. We'll look forward to that. That's exciting.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Go and have a cup of tea, chaps.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Meanwhile we're going to check out what the Blue Team bought, aren't we?
0:21:22 > 0:21:26The Blues soared early on with their eagle brooch for £32.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31After a good deal of plodding, they then bought this lithograph
0:21:31 > 0:21:33of a police constable for £70.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37The third item was this Royal Worcester cluster of vases,
0:21:37 > 0:21:39and it cost them £60.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Now, you gorgeous girls, and David...
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Have you had a good shop-up?- Yes, we have.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51We thought you were having a tremendous time.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- Which is lovely, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57How's it been for you, David? Were they being difficult customers? No.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00I can't believe we've been at the antique fair. They treated it like a seaside holiday.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05And why not? Now, tell me - you spent how much in total?
0:22:05 > 0:22:07£162.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09I'd like £138 of leftover lolly, please.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12£138.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- This is your favourite moment, David.- Oh, yes. Thank you very much.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Now, you're a cunning fox if ever I knew one.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21What are you going to spend that on?
0:22:21 > 0:22:23I'm going to treat myself to an ice cream, first of all.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25- And then I shall buy a fun piece. - Will you?
0:22:26 > 0:22:28- A fun piece.- It'll be fun for me.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Not too much ice cream, now.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Good luck, girls. Meanwhile, we're heading off somewhere positively divine.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Actually, it's to Basildon Park in Berkshire.
0:22:42 > 0:22:47In the early 1950s, this 18th Century Georgian gem had been stripped of its contents,
0:22:47 > 0:22:49and was threatened with demolition.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54It was not alone. The decline of British country estates
0:22:54 > 0:22:57was extraordinary in the 20th Century.
0:22:58 > 0:23:03What with the changes in the social order, and economic decline,
0:23:03 > 0:23:09this coupled with rationing continuing after the Second World War
0:23:09 > 0:23:13meant that the pace of demolition accelerated, so much so
0:23:13 > 0:23:19that one of these babies was being demolished in 1955 at a rate
0:23:19 > 0:23:21of one every five days.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28But Basildon was one of the lucky ones, and instead of being turned to rubble
0:23:28 > 0:23:30it underwent a remarkable resurrection
0:23:30 > 0:23:34thanks to its new owners, Lord and Lady Iliffe.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37When they purchased the property in 1952, chimney pieces,
0:23:37 > 0:23:41many of its doors, and sections of plasterwork were already missing.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45No windows were left intact, and walls were covered in graffiti
0:23:45 > 0:23:47from its various occupants.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Can't believe it, can you?
0:23:49 > 0:23:55Lady Iliffe was determined to return it to its former splendour.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Quite a task, by anybody's standards.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05And you only need to step inside the front door
0:24:05 > 0:24:10to see a prime product of Lady Iliffe's cunning eye.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Magnificent, aren't they?
0:24:15 > 0:24:20This is one of a pair of tables that was made by William Kent
0:24:20 > 0:24:22around 1730.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26Acquired by Lady Iliffe in 1953
0:24:26 > 0:24:32at the Ashburnham Place sale, they are about the best examples
0:24:32 > 0:24:37of Palladian pieces of furniture you're ever likely to find.
0:24:37 > 0:24:42When Lady Iliffe spotted them they were covered in some rather oily, green paint,
0:24:42 > 0:24:45but she recognised the beauty of these tables,
0:24:45 > 0:24:50and now that the paint has been stripped off, you can actually twig
0:24:50 > 0:24:55just how brilliantly carved and conceived these things are.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Absolutely extraordinary.
0:24:57 > 0:25:02And I have to tell you, just top of the tree when it comes to quality.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Like everything else here at Basildon Park.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Oh, hello. There you are.
0:25:15 > 0:25:21The staircase hall is dominated by this enormous lantern light.
0:25:21 > 0:25:25Have a look at it. How does the thing come down
0:25:26 > 0:25:29when the chain length remains the same?
0:25:31 > 0:25:33(LAUGHS) Look at that!
0:25:33 > 0:25:38The entire ceiling rose descends with wire up above.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40How magnificent is that?!
0:25:44 > 0:25:50I've always longed to see one of these lanterns being lowered,
0:25:50 > 0:25:55because when you think about it, how would you get the candles refreshed?
0:25:55 > 0:26:01Of course, it would have been a daily occurrence in the 18th and 19th Centuries.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06There'd be a man on the roof with a winch, and every morning
0:26:06 > 0:26:10he'd let this baby down, and the staff would change the candles
0:26:10 > 0:26:13simply by opening the door.
0:26:13 > 0:26:17The fact that we're able to enjoy this here at Basildon today
0:26:17 > 0:26:19is again down to Lady Iliffe.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23She spotted this lantern coming up for sale
0:26:23 > 0:26:26in a Country Life magazine in 1966
0:26:26 > 0:26:28and she bought it.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31It's a wonderful example of first-class metalwork.
0:26:31 > 0:26:35The quality of the casting, the mixture of colours...
0:26:35 > 0:26:40It's all basically bronze that's been patinated and then parcel-gilt
0:26:40 > 0:26:46so you get this lovely contrast between the dark brown metal and the gold bits.
0:26:46 > 0:26:50It is of course of a scale that takes your breath away
0:26:50 > 0:26:53once the thing is down here at ground-floor level.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56And somewhere around about here
0:26:56 > 0:26:58it's supposed to be dated.
0:26:58 > 0:27:03Oh, there we are, look - October 20th, 1810.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05How brilliant is that?
0:27:05 > 0:27:10Of course, the big question today is, where will the light be shining from
0:27:10 > 0:27:13for our teams over at the auction?
0:27:24 > 0:27:28Well, it's a short hop over the mountains from Wales to Worcestershire -
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Malvern, precisely - to be at Philip Serrell's saleroom.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34- Phil.- Good to see you, Tim.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37The Reds, they've got some oddball objects,
0:27:37 > 0:27:40starting off with this writing desk which is awful.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42It's not as nice as that, really, I don't think.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46- Not as nice as awful?- No, I think it's truly, truly horrid.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48I think if we're very lucky we might get 50 quid for it.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52If you were being unkind, would you put £20 to £30 on it?
0:27:52 > 0:27:54It's 10 to 15 quid's worth.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56There we have it, then. And our lot paid £120.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58- I'm not being too mean there, am I? - No, I don't think so.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Moving on, the Doulton biscuit barrel
0:28:01 > 0:28:04which is transfer-printed, spangled in gold.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08On its jack. I mean, it's part of a tea service, something like that.
0:28:08 > 0:28:12- It's sort of £20 worth, isn't it? - Yeah, £20 to £25.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14- Team paid £55.- Ouch.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17So that's a stinker, and then we come to these fellows
0:28:17 > 0:28:19who are sort of sprayed brass.
0:28:19 > 0:28:23There is some metal in it, but the metal is very thin.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Wherever the gilding was has spotted off.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30They are the lowest-of-the-low grade Belgian bits of metalwork
0:28:30 > 0:28:32dating from 1900 or 1910.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35- They've almost got a look, but they haven't.- Yes.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37I think they're sort of 30 quid's worth.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39That's extremely generous. £55 was paid.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42We have three prospective whopping losses here,
0:28:42 > 0:28:46and the team are going to need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:28:47 > 0:28:53So, Daryl, Chris, excitement. £70 leftover lolly was given to Chris.
0:28:53 > 0:28:58- What did you buy?- Here we go. I know tea may not be your favourite drink, guys.
0:28:58 > 0:29:02`But this is actually a tea canister.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06Chinese. Famille rose or famille vert. Pink or green.
0:29:06 > 0:29:10And it's made for the export trade in about 1870, 1880.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12It's purely decoration.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14- What do you think?- Mm...- Yeah.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17I think it's going down well.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21- I think the lads are partial to this.- There's no markings on it.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23No, well, it didn't say "made in China" at that time.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25That's true, yes. How old did you say it was?
0:29:25 > 0:29:291880, 1870, that sort of period.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32- But very collectible.- And how much did you pay for this?
0:29:32 > 0:29:34- £60.- How much do you think it's going to make?
0:29:34 > 0:29:38- £20 more. Perhaps.- I've got every faith in you.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42- I'm glad you have.- I wouldn't have chosen it myself. It's different.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44- You wouldn't have chosen it yourself?- No.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Well, there again, chaps, it takes all sorts, right?
0:29:46 > 0:29:49But right now, for the audience at home, let's check out
0:29:49 > 0:29:52what the auctioneer thinks about Chris' caddy.
0:29:53 > 0:29:57Now, Phil, they say everything Chinese has gone bonkers in the auction. Is that right?
0:29:57 > 0:30:01I hope so. I mean, this is Canton, and it's a caddy in typical colours.
0:30:01 > 0:30:06It's nice and it's in good order. I think he's got quite a tidy little buy there.
0:30:06 > 0:30:08- We'd probably put £40 to £60 on it. - Fair enough.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11It's not easy for Chris to go off and find this.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13I don't have to do that part of the programme.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16You do, and it ain't easy, is it?
0:30:16 > 0:30:20What is easy is to sit here and criticise.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22What is really, really difficult is you go out there,
0:30:22 > 0:30:25you're right up against it timewise, and you've got to buy stuff.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27- Boy, that's hard.- Yeah.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30And that little Canton caddy, he paid £60 for.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33- I hope he's all right.- Hope springs eternal.
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Good. That's it, then, for the Reds. Now for the Blues.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39First up for them is the marcasite eagle brooch.
0:30:39 > 0:30:44I've got to admit, I wouldn't class myself as a marcasite jewellery specialist, really.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47No. I mean, when you think about the detail of that,
0:30:47 > 0:30:50each of those little facets is hand-cut,
0:30:50 > 0:30:52and polished to give you that kind of glittery effect.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54I think that's like 10 to 15 quid's worth.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56- They only paid £32.- Yeah.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59Interesting to see what happens. I wouldn't be surprised if it does make £30.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03- Fingers crossed.- Cross everything. Next is the little lithograph.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07I might be being a bit mean here, but I think that's a bit yesterday's taste.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09I see that at £30 to £50.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11- I rather agree.- It's not selling itself, is it?- Not really.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15The only thing that it will have a chance with
0:31:15 > 0:31:19is anybody that collects early Police-related stuff.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21- Yes.- What's its estimate?- £30 to £50.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23- £70 paid.- Ouch.- It's a bit of a difficult one, isn't it?
0:31:23 > 0:31:29Lastly, though, this very attractive tumble of little Worcester pots.
0:31:29 > 0:31:32That on the face of it is a very pretty little lot
0:31:32 > 0:31:35to bring to you in this saleroom
0:31:35 > 0:31:37known as it for selling Royal Worcester.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41That came in, I saw it and thought, "That's going to make £120 to £180."
0:31:41 > 0:31:43All day long I was really, really excited.
0:31:43 > 0:31:48But that's broken, that's broken, so...when I say broken, this has been restored.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51And if you look very closely, you can just see the difference in colour
0:31:51 > 0:31:53between the gilding there, and the gilding there.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56In my eyes, it looks like it's sort of 60 to 90 quid's worth.
0:31:56 > 0:32:02Right. So it may make a pound or two to bring back the profit that they might be losing
0:32:02 > 0:32:05on the print, in which case they may or may not need the bonus buy,
0:32:05 > 0:32:07but let's have a look at it anyway.
0:32:08 > 0:32:10Amanda, Kirsty.
0:32:10 > 0:32:14You gave David £138. The big question is, did he blow the lot?
0:32:14 > 0:32:16I didn't blow the lot.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18- What do you think?- Very pretty, yeah.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21Very pretty? I want you to take this, and look at it,
0:32:21 > 0:32:24and then tell me what you see. Turn it upside-down.
0:32:24 > 0:32:29Oh, God. WD Woods, and then I can't see the last...
0:32:29 > 0:32:31- It's all like rubbed out and - - Malvern!
0:32:31 > 0:32:33Oh, God!
0:32:35 > 0:32:37- Where are we today?- Where are we today?
0:32:37 > 0:32:39We're in Malvern.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42This was a commission piece by that company.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46That was the retailer, and he ordered so many of those from Royal Worcester
0:32:46 > 0:32:49just down the road so he could sell them in his emporium.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53Round about sort of 1914, 1918, that sort of period.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55- That's really pretty.- Yeah, lovely.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58Well, that's clever, isn't it, to bring it back to Malvern?
0:32:58 > 0:33:03- Yes.- So, our man from Malvern - our Philip Serrell -
0:33:03 > 0:33:08probably knows the shop, or knew of the shop where that came from.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10He's old enough to, yes.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12You're such a cat, you really are.
0:33:13 > 0:33:15But very clever, don't you think, girls?
0:33:15 > 0:33:17- No, I do.- Yeah.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19Really relevant for today's auction. Well done, David.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23- It cost £45, and I think -- That's good, yeah.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25- Yeah, pleased with that.- Yeah.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28It's so very beautiful and delicate, rather like yourselves.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Oh, thank you.
0:33:30 > 0:33:35Before we all burst into tears, or are sick in the sick bag...
0:33:36 > 0:33:38for the audience at home let's find out
0:33:38 > 0:33:40what the auctioneer thinks about David's little pot.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44And almost on cue, another piece of Worcester porcelain.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47Well, what's really fun for me is Woods of Malvern,
0:33:47 > 0:33:52and I think I'm right in saying when I started out in business as an auctioneer, as a pupil,
0:33:52 > 0:33:56- I think I worked about five doors down from their china shop.- Really?
0:33:56 > 0:34:01- They were retailers?- They were retailers, so this is a piece of Worcester made in Worcester.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04We put £40 to £60 on it, it'll fly that all day long.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06Well, cunning old Barby paid £45.
0:34:06 > 0:34:11He's paid the right price, and if the team decide to go with it they should do pretty well.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14- Yeah.- Well, as they say, Phil, it's gonna be over to you, old fruit.
0:34:15 > 0:34:16Good luck.
0:34:18 > 0:34:19£60...
0:34:19 > 0:34:21£5.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25- Daryl, Chris, how are you feeling? - Confident.- Are you?- Yeah.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27- Feeling a bit iffy, Chris?- Only on one.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30Only on one? Which is the dodgy one?
0:34:30 > 0:34:32- The writing slope.- Is it?
0:34:32 > 0:34:33Yeah.
0:34:33 > 0:34:38£120 you paid for that. His estimate is on a good day, if you're lucky, £10 to £15.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40Oh. That's why, then. I was right, then.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43You have every reason to feel a bit shifty.
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Victorian mahogany tabletop clerk's desk.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49There you are. Bid me for this lot. Start me off. Who's got £30 to start?
0:34:49 > 0:34:51Bid me £20.
0:34:51 > 0:34:53I've got £20.
0:34:54 > 0:34:58Who's got a tenner? Well done, sir. At £10. I'm bid at £10.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00£10 bid. Is there any more?
0:35:00 > 0:35:02It's not expensive at £10.
0:35:02 > 0:35:04Put your hand up.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08At £10 then. I sell then at £10.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10£10. He's gonna sell it.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13At £12. £12 bid. Bid's here.
0:35:13 > 0:35:18At £12. £15 anywhere? £15 only. At £15.
0:35:19 > 0:35:20Hang on...
0:35:20 > 0:35:22At £15. At £15.
0:35:22 > 0:35:26There's the bid. At £15 and done. Thank you.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28That is minus £105.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30- Well, well, well.- Please!
0:35:30 > 0:35:32- That is quite a body blow.- It is.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36Little Doulton biscuit barrel. Nice thing. £20. £10 to start.
0:35:36 > 0:35:39Quickly. Who's got a fiver anyway? Quickly.
0:35:39 > 0:35:41I'm bid at £5.
0:35:41 > 0:35:42£5 bid.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Only at £5. £5 bid. Be quick.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51At £5 only. I'll take £8.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53At £5. Your bid at £8.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55No, come on.
0:35:55 > 0:35:56£10.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58At £10. £10 bid. There's the bid.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01He's going to sell it. He's selling it.
0:36:01 > 0:36:05£15 now. £15. £18. £20.

0:36:20 > 0:36:24At £50 then, I sell. Your bid at £50.
0:36:24 > 0:36:26- Done, then, at £50.- There we go.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29- -£5, which is a very good result. - Oh, well.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32Now, I nearly sold that for a £5 note.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34- He got to £50.- Yes, amazing speed.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38- Here we go.- Bid me for those. £30 for them.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41£20. Who's got a tenner?
0:36:41 > 0:36:43£10, £12, £15.
0:36:43 > 0:36:44£18. £20.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46At £20. Bid at £20.
0:36:46 > 0:36:47- £20 bid.- That's good.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49At £20. Only at £20.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51- Is there any more?- Come on, baby.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53At £20. Any more at all?
0:36:53 > 0:36:55£25.
0:36:55 > 0:36:57One more, sir. £30. At £30.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59At £30, and done. Thank you.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02£30 is -£25.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06That's -£25, so that's -£135.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10- Going with the bonus buy?- Yes.- Going with the China... I like the Chinese.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12We all like the Chinese, don't we?
0:37:12 > 0:37:14We're going with the Chinese, and here it comes.
0:37:14 > 0:37:18This is a really nice little thing. Little Canton caddy. There you are.
0:37:18 > 0:37:20Bid me for that, someone. Put it in the bidding. Start me off.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23£20 I'm bid. £20 only.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25£20. £25. £30.
0:37:25 > 0:37:26And £5?
0:37:26 > 0:37:27£35.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29At £35 only. £35.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31At £35. Any more?
0:37:31 > 0:37:33At £35 only. £35.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35No...
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Any more at all? At £35. There's the bid.
0:37:37 > 0:37:39At £40. £40 bid. £5 now, sir.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42At £40. £45.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45One more. £50. £50 bid. Try another.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47At £50. £5 now?
0:37:47 > 0:37:49- £55.- Good. Very good.
0:37:49 > 0:37:51£60. £60 bid.
0:37:51 > 0:37:56At £60. At £60, then, I sell then at £60. And done. Thank you.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Well done, Chris.
0:37:59 > 0:38:01You did well after that huge loss.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04You can't have better than that, can you?
0:38:04 > 0:38:07And frankly, water hasn't gone down your gutter much.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09You're -£135.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12Keep that quiet. Don't say a word to the Blues.
0:38:12 > 0:38:15- There's nothing to brag about.- No, it's nothing to brag about.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17Let's go out smiling, shall we? Let's go smiling.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20Go out looking very confident.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22A real swagger about you.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25£5. Can I say £8?
0:38:31 > 0:38:34Now, Amanda, Kirsty, do you know how the Reds got on?
0:38:34 > 0:38:36No.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38The marcasite brooch, £32 paid.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40He's put £10 to £20 on it.
0:38:41 > 0:38:45He's not a big man for paste jewellery, it has to be said.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47The buyers'll be here, don't you worry.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50- Anyway, you feeling OK?- Yeah. A little nervous.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53- Nervous. What about you, Mom?- I'm just excited to see the results.
0:38:53 > 0:38:55Me too.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59Silver and marcasite brooch formed as an eagle. Start me off.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01£20.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03All gone quiet. Surely...
0:39:03 > 0:39:04Who's got a tenner?
0:39:04 > 0:39:06£10 everywhere. At £10, £12.
0:39:06 > 0:39:11£15. £15. Lady's bid. At £15. At £15.

0:39:19 > 0:39:21At £20. £20 bid.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25Any more at all? At £20, then, and I sell at £20 and done.
0:39:25 > 0:39:26Thank you.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28It's -£12, girls.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30That's not so hairy, is it?
0:39:30 > 0:39:34Hand-tinted lithograph. An academic lot. Start me off wherever you want to be.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Give me £30 to start.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Give me £20. £20 I'm bid. At £20.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41£20 bid. £25.
0:39:41 > 0:39:43£25. And £30.
0:39:43 > 0:39:46And £40. At £40 only.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49There's the bid at £40. Any more at all?
0:39:49 > 0:39:54At £40 there's the bid, and I sell then at £40 and done. Thank you.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56£40 is -£30.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58I'm sorry. You're -£42.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Now, the Worcester cluster.
0:40:00 > 0:40:02The Royal Worcester globular vase.
0:40:02 > 0:40:04Just a little bit of restoration to the handles.
0:40:04 > 0:40:07Bid me for that, someone. Bid me £50 to start.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10It's cheap enough. Bid me £40 to start.

0:40:39 > 0:40:45How can you be so transformed from gloom to victory?
0:40:45 > 0:40:47- That was nice.- Yeah.
0:40:47 > 0:40:51The big test now is do you go with David's Royal Worcester vase?
0:40:51 > 0:40:53- Yeah, I like it.- You're going to do it? You liked it?
0:40:53 > 0:40:57- Yeah.- I think you're right. You're going with the Worcester vase.
0:40:57 > 0:41:00Phil, now you've chosen, I can tell you really likes it.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04He's put £40 to £60, and it could do better.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06- So...- It's the association with Malvern, isn't it?
0:41:07 > 0:41:09The little Worcester vase. Really lovely,
0:41:09 > 0:41:12and this has got the stamp of Woods the Malvern retailer on it.
0:41:12 > 0:41:15You've got local history twice here.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18Lovely little lot. Bid me for that. £50. I'm started at a £50 bid.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20At £50. £50 bid, and £60.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22£70.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45Yes! Well done.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Plus £55, thanks to the bonus buy.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Oh, that's brilliant.
0:41:52 > 0:41:54- But we don't know if we're the winners.- I don't care.
0:41:54 > 0:41:57- Anyway, don't say a word to the Reds, right?- We won't.
0:41:57 > 0:42:00- Well done, girls. Well done, David. - I'm very pleased.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05There's a bid, and I sell then.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12- Well, everybody happy?- Yeah.
0:42:12 > 0:42:16Well, you ought to be happy. We've had a really happy show today,
0:42:16 > 0:42:22although the results for one team, I have to say, are appalling.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24And that team is the Reds.
0:42:25 > 0:42:30I mean, you have got bottom-clenchingly awful losses here.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33- We done it in style.- You've done it in style?
0:42:33 > 0:42:36You've certainly done it in style, Daryl.
0:42:36 > 0:42:40£105 for a kick-off wasn't terribly brilliant, was it?
0:42:40 > 0:42:44The only saving grace, Chris, was your White face on the Chinese pot.
0:42:44 > 0:42:49- Yes.- Which is as close as you can be to getting a whisper.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51- But it's been fun, I hope.- Loved every minute.
0:42:51 > 0:42:54You've been really good sports, you chaps. You've taken it all on the chin.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56I'm very proud of you.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58Now, the victors, the girls...
0:42:59 > 0:43:02That's quite something, isn't it?
0:43:02 > 0:43:04- Feeling chuffed about that, Amanda? - I am, yeah, yeah.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06- Pretty good, isn't it?- It's fantastic.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08Nice feeling. Congratulations.
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Join us soon for some more bargain hunting.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12- Yes? - ALL: Yes!
