0:00:08 > 0:00:11Today we're in Leominster, in Herefordshire,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15a town well known for its selection of antiques emporiums
0:00:15 > 0:00:17so our teams should have plenty of choice.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20It's also known as the Orchard of England
0:00:20 > 0:00:24so there should be plenty of rich pickings!
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Herefordshire's produce is internationally renowned,
0:00:55 > 0:00:58particularly its cider and perry.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02The big question today is, are the teams' efforts likely to bear fruit
0:01:02 > 0:01:05or simply go pear-shaped?
0:01:05 > 0:01:08So, here's a quick peek at what's coming up.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Both teams struggle with decisions...
0:01:11 > 0:01:14- The table's going to go for more! - Back to the table!
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- This one!- Have we got a consensus? - This one!
0:01:17 > 0:01:19..while I practise my riding skills.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Come on, lads, mount up!
0:01:21 > 0:01:24So, let's meet the teams.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28On the show today for the Reds, we've got chums Dan and Jake.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Well, they're chums at the moment!
0:01:31 > 0:01:35And for the Blues, we've got sisters Naomi and Miriam.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Hello, everyone.- ALL: Hello!
0:01:37 > 0:01:39That's a lovely hello!
0:01:39 > 0:01:44You two are housemates. You're at Gloucester University, Gloucestershire University.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46- What do you do there? - I study radio production,
0:01:46 > 0:01:51which is presenting, producing, technical aspects, writing.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53What's it like being on a television programme, then?
0:01:53 > 0:01:56It's confusing. I don't like the cameras.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00- What do you collect, Dan? - I'm quite into sports so I've started a collection.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03It happened by mistake when I acquired a cricket ball by James Anderson.
0:02:03 > 0:02:09But the signed football shirts and that kind of stuff, later on can bring big money.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Well, when my radio career fails, I'll have something to sell!
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Jake, what are you studying?
0:02:15 > 0:02:19I do music - performing, writing, looking at the industry.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- That's quite a big subject.- It is.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25It's good fun, especially the performing and writing side of it.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27What's your instruments?
0:02:27 > 0:02:29- Guitar mainly and singing. - Oh, right.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32- What do you do in your spare time? - I finished recording an album,
0:02:32 > 0:02:35which I've been working on for too long,
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- and watching Bargain Hunt, as well! - Good man!
0:02:38 > 0:02:40What have you learnt on Bargain Hunt?
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Everything about life we've learnt from Bargain Hunt.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Pretty broad. But buy low, sell high!- Yes!
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- You're going to make a great team, then?- BOTH: No. No.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53- You're not?- Oh, God, no.- We...
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Yes. No. Arguments happen all the time.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Do they? We don't mind a bit of arguing.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00A little cuddle and it's all fine.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03That's what mateyness is all about! Good luck with that, chaps.
0:03:03 > 0:03:08Now over to the talent. I mean, the girls!
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- Wow. Naomi...- Hello!
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- You're the older or the eldest sister?- Elder.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- There is four of us altogether, all sisters.- I'm the baby!
0:03:17 > 0:03:19What chaos there must be when you four girls get together.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24- It's crazy.- We paint the town red. - Yes.- Or blue!
0:03:24 > 0:03:26- And you're also a mother.- I am.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28- Mother of...?- I'm a mother of two. - Two.
0:03:28 > 0:03:33Yes. Joshua is six and Phoebe is 11 months old.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36And you're also surrounded by children at work.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39I am. I am. I'm a nursery nurse.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42I love my job. I get to go to work and I get to play all day!
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- And you get paid. - And I get paid to do it, as well!
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Don't tell anybody because they'll think it's too good.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52- Miriam, it says here you're a student.- I am indeed.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- At what university are you a student?- I'm at that university!
0:03:56 > 0:03:57You're at their university?
0:03:57 > 0:04:00It's a University of Gloucestershire reunion here!
0:04:00 > 0:04:03- You don't know each other? - Never seen each other before.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06- You jest!- I jest not!- "I jest not!"
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Isn't that marvellous? That's good, isn't it? What fun!
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- What are you studying?- Religion, philosophy, ethics and sociology.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- It's quite a mouthful. - It certainly is.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19And what's the end result going to be for you?
0:04:19 > 0:04:23I'm planning on doing a PGC and being an RE teacher for high school.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Do you collect anything?
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Yes,- girlie... Like, quirky...
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Girlie, pretty... - Is that what you're going to buy?
0:04:30 > 0:04:33- We're hoping to leave the expert a pound or two.- A pound or two!
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- You're too generous, you sisters! - I know!
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Talking of money, here comes £300 apiece.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42You know the rules. Your experts await. Off you go!
0:04:42 > 0:04:43Very, very good luck.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Gosh! Whatever's going to happen next?
0:04:46 > 0:04:51Now, what fine experts have we got lined up for you today?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Well, weighing everything up for the Reds,
0:04:54 > 0:04:56we have Claire Rawle.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Hoping to grind out the profits for the Blues,
0:04:59 > 0:05:01it's Paul Laidlow.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07So, Dan and Jake, what are we looking for today, then?
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Ooh, a little bit of everything.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13- How are we playing this today? - We want pretty things.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- Big items, I reckon.- Yes.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Not size-wise.- Oh, really? - Just big on impact.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- BOTH:- Think pretty, girlie...
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- Pretty, girlie? Do I look like a pretty, girlie type of guy?- Yes!
0:05:24 > 0:05:27- We'll help you!- Let's do it, then!
0:05:27 > 0:05:30- Let's head off into here. - Let's do it.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32'You've got 60 minutes and £300.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34'Off you go, teams.'
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- Let's get shopping! - Pretty and girlie...
0:05:41 > 0:05:43'Hey, I start the clock, Reds!'
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- Food's ready, Jake! - It's got a good tone to it.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48It's a nice oak frame. Dates from the 1930s.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51It's all right, actually. It's quite quirky and fun.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- I like it. What do you reckon, Dan? - I think it's quite good.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- Shall we have a little look round? - Yes, have a browse.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00- OK, right. - I do quite like it, though.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02'So no song for the gong, Reds.'
0:06:02 > 0:06:06'But have the Blues found some bling to sing about?'
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- How does jewellery sell? - The jewellery market is great.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11It's all in the eye of the beholder,
0:06:11 > 0:06:15and so much of jewellery doesn't have precious content, the costume category,
0:06:15 > 0:06:20but even costume jewellery is selling just fine at the moment.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24- What about rings?- Now, in the centre you've got a flowerhead cluster...
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- That's your granny again. Anathema. - OK.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30We've got a cameo. She liked those, as well.
0:06:30 > 0:06:34And at the end, the little amethyst affair...
0:06:34 > 0:06:36- Would you wear it? Say no.- No.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38That's great! Bang on script!
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Would you wear it?
0:06:41 > 0:06:43If I had my purple frock on!
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Next room, I think... - 'You said it, Miriam.
0:06:46 > 0:06:51'Move on, then, move on. Purple frock, eh, Paul? Lovely.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54'Now, what have the Reds picked up?'
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- Give us a tune.- Is it any good? You're the expert on guitars.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59- DISCORDANT STRINGS - Come on, Jake.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01- Ooh, that's out of tune! - That just says it!
0:07:01 > 0:07:03'You can tune it, you know, Reds.'
0:07:03 > 0:07:07# Play that funky music, white boy... #
0:07:07 > 0:07:09'Now, what's lighting up those sisters?'
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Ooh! Nice.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Adam-style candlesticks.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18Silver-plate. This much we know, or they wouldn't be sitting there and affordable.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22It's easy to dismiss these, but there's very fine reeding.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Quite a starkly geometric form.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Cast-iron loaded base,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29because otherwise they topple.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31But I'll tell you what I'm liking,
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- look at the little bird. - I saw that!- Aww!
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- I like the bird.- So, what's that?
0:07:36 > 0:07:39That's the family's armorial crest.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- Ohh!- They came from a good...
0:07:42 > 0:07:47You don't have armorial-crested pieces back at home? I know I don't!
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Seriously, they've gone from easily dismissed
0:07:50 > 0:07:53to what's called old Sheffield plate,
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- as opposed to electroplate.- Oh!
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- I love them!- Do you?!
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- High-five! - THEY LAUGH
0:08:03 > 0:08:04What about the price?
0:08:04 > 0:08:09My estimate, cautious but probably realistic, 50 to 80.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- What are you like with negotiating? - We've never tried.- Never tried?
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- But we are good at smiling. - We are really good at smiling.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Let me see you smiling. Try that again.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21- "Yours for £20, madam."- Thanks!
0:08:21 > 0:08:25# Sisters are doing it For themselves... #
0:08:25 > 0:08:27'As the Blues practise their charm skills,
0:08:27 > 0:08:30'the Reds are on a mission to find their first purchase.'
0:08:30 > 0:08:35- There's a chicken theme going on through here, isn't there? BOYS:- Yes.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- Do they go well at auctions - chickens?- They can do.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39People like chickens.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43'There can be a buck in a cluck, Reds. You never know.'
0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Nothing else grabs your fancy? - No. Still hanging onto the gong.
0:08:46 > 0:08:51- Do you want to make a purchase? - Shall we?- You love the gong. - I'm enjoying it.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53'So as the boys bang on about the gong,
0:08:53 > 0:08:55'what are those cheeky sisters up to?'
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Hi!- Hello! - THEY LAUGH
0:08:58 > 0:09:03- They were nicking off with those! - I know! Up the jumper!
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- That's why they're so big! - You're trouble, aren't you?- No!
0:09:06 > 0:09:08- What have you got there? - We like these
0:09:08 > 0:09:11but we're not so sure on the price.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- Right, OK. Let's have a look. So... - There you go.
0:09:15 > 0:09:19- We had 90...- They look a bit old. - ..90 pounds.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22I know, I couldn't believe it either! LAUGHTER
0:09:22 > 0:09:23Christmas bonus!
0:09:23 > 0:09:26I thought that was quite good but, erm...
0:09:26 > 0:09:31We usually do 10%, so it should be £80.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34We were looking more in the region of 30.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36I thought they were only going to be £30.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- How much?- BOTH: 30.- £30?!
0:09:38 > 0:09:40I thought the maximum we could do was 40.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Well, actually, the dealer's here so I can have a chat.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- Yes, please.- Is that OK?
0:09:46 > 0:09:49- I'll do my best. - As small as you can!
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- We'll see what we can do.- Thank you!
0:09:51 > 0:09:55'Fingers crossed, then, Blues. Now, are the Reds hitting the right notes?'
0:09:55 > 0:09:58It's very typically 1930s-type item,
0:09:58 > 0:10:02with this sort of architectural oak-type frame round it.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Nice heavy brass gong. It says "Burmese" on it.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08I think that's more to do with the fact that they were used out there.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11I'm pretty sure it's British-made, more than likely.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13What do you think it'll go for?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I would estimate it at about sort of 30 to 50.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20If you can get it under the 20...
0:10:20 > 0:10:23- Who's a good negotiator? - He's the charmer!- Is he?
0:10:23 > 0:10:27- Is this going to be your tactic? - Get Dan to do everything and I pick out the products.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- You just stand in the background. - That's how it is?!
0:10:30 > 0:10:32'No pressure, then, Daniel!
0:10:32 > 0:10:36'Blimey. It's a charm offensive all round with these teams today.'
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- Look at his face!- No...
0:10:39 > 0:10:4265. Now, that is good.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44- I think we might have to leave them. - Yes.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47We'll leave them here and if we need them...
0:10:47 > 0:10:50- You know where they are. - We know where they are.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Oh, yes!
0:10:52 > 0:10:54- I could...- "I could" what? - I think you're budging us!
0:10:54 > 0:10:58I could show you what I think is a really good bargain.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02- Oh, yes.- Take those with you. - Take these. OK.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05'Take them with you! You need to pay the man first, girls!
0:11:05 > 0:11:09'Come along, then, Dan, show us your charm.'
0:11:09 > 0:11:12You see, now my friend Jake here, this little face...
0:11:12 > 0:11:17- I've never seen or hit a gong before.- ..he loves gongs and he loves a bargain.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19We reckon, maybe like 18...
0:11:19 > 0:11:23This belongs to another lady and I'll need to give her a ring.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Is that all right?
0:11:25 > 0:11:28- I'll get hold of her now. - See what her very best is.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32Tell her we've a man with a dashing ginger beard, and he loves a gong.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35'How could they say no, Daniel?
0:11:35 > 0:11:38'Those indecisive Blues are getting a bit of help from dealer Jeremy.'
0:11:38 > 0:11:41This box here is turn of the century, OK?
0:11:41 > 0:11:45It's part of the Arts & Crafts movement, which is very popular.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Oh. OK. And what's the price?
0:11:48 > 0:11:52The price... Well, I had £40 on it,
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- but I can do it for...- 20?
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- 'Hold on!'- 10. - Don't make an offer yet!
0:11:58 > 0:12:02'You tell 'em, Paul! But you need to start making decisions.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06'So, is it good news for the Reds?'
0:12:06 > 0:12:10I can't get hold of her so I dare not take anything off.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13- So, it's only 22? - It's 26, I'm afraid. I'm sorry.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15- It's up to you, guys.- Your call.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19- It's your gong! It's your gong, Jake.- I've done my bit!
0:12:19 > 0:12:22You're going to blame each other if it bombs out!
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- What do you want to do? - Shall we be daring and just do it?
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- 'You need something.' - Could you do it for 25?
0:12:28 > 0:12:31I daren't move on it.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- It's up to you two. - Shall we do it?- We'll get the gong.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- OK. Well done. Excellent. Thank you. - Thank you.- Well done, guys.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40'Nice try, Daniel. Better luck next time.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42'One down, then.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46'Now, has Paul found something to tempt the girls?'
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Little split pearls,
0:12:48 > 0:12:51a central amethyst and...
0:12:51 > 0:12:53'A candlestick?
0:12:53 > 0:12:57'They just won't let go of those things, will they?'
0:12:59 > 0:13:03'Oi! You can't hide behind that, Reds.'
0:13:03 > 0:13:04What do you reckon?
0:13:04 > 0:13:07- I'd be happy with that. - Worth having a go? It says 45.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11A more tourist piece than tribal, but there are collectors of this.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15It's got quite a nice patina to it. And of course, all hand-carved.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18- It's not too frightening, is it?- No. - They spook me out sometimes.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22- This lovely chap up here... - I think it's supposed to be a woman!
0:13:22 > 0:13:26- This lovely woman up here.- Yes!
0:13:26 > 0:13:30- You hang onto that.- Yes. - I'll see if I can find the guy we need to speak to.
0:13:30 > 0:13:35- Back in a moment.- 'Going in disguise is not going to help make your case, boys!
0:13:35 > 0:13:39'And after all that help, the girls still haven't made their first buy.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42'But they're not letting go of those sticks.'
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- You've spent half an hour on this. - No way!- I kid you not.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47You need to buy something.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- Half an hour...?- Buy something.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- OK.- I'll tell you what we'll do.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- What did they come down to?- 65.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59Go back, like your life depended on it, and get them for 60.
0:13:59 > 0:14:04'You'll have to wait a minute, Blues. Jeremy is somewhat tied up.'
0:14:04 > 0:14:08- Hello.- We're interested in this. - I hope you're not as much trouble as they are downstairs!
0:14:08 > 0:14:13- Of course we're not! We're lovely! - No! No!- Oh, I'm so pleased!
0:14:13 > 0:14:17- How can I help? - Well, we'd like to purchase...
0:14:17 > 0:14:19- ..this mask.- Very good.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21- What can you do for us?- Right. OK.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- It's already been reduced once, you see.- Yes.
0:14:24 > 0:14:29- Is £40 any good?- That means it's been hanging around a bit, doesn't it?
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Can you touch 30?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35- Er...- Look at this smile. - Claire will get angry, as well.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38You don't like Claire when she's angry!
0:14:38 > 0:14:42This is very tricky for me because it belongs to another dealer
0:14:42 > 0:14:45but I'll take a chance and say 35.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47- Yes!- Ooh! 35?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- Yes, we'll do it!- Is that a deal? - That's great.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52'Well done, Reds. You're two-up on the Blues.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56'But hop to it, Jeremy. The girls need you, too.'
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- Right, we're sorry, we're back on the candlesticks. - Back on the candlesticks!
0:15:01 > 0:15:03I tried hard with the jewellery. Stony ground.
0:15:03 > 0:15:0560 pounds?
0:15:05 > 0:15:08Well, I can only ask.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11'Please, Jeremy! For me?!'
0:15:11 > 0:15:13Come on! Come on!
0:15:13 > 0:15:15- Fingers crossed.- Fingers crossed!
0:15:15 > 0:15:18- We need to nail something. - 'Yes, you certainly do.'
0:15:18 > 0:15:20Half an hour is scary!
0:15:20 > 0:15:25- Come on, please!- Yes. - THEY CHEER
0:15:26 > 0:15:27We've got our first one!
0:15:27 > 0:15:29# Hallelujah, hallelujah... #
0:15:29 > 0:15:33'Let's keep this momentum going. You, too, Reds.'
0:15:33 > 0:15:36# Hallelujah, hallelujah... #
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Oh! This is sweet!
0:15:38 > 0:15:40'Looks like the Blues are feeling all childlike-like.'
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- I know! I saw that earlier!- Ahh!
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- I like it.- A little toy or doll's...
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- High chair. - ..feeding chair, high chair, yes.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- I think it's charming. Oh, no... Controversy!- No, I like it.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57- Do you?- Yes.- We've got consensus! - Yay!
0:15:57 > 0:16:00So it's a wooden affair that does what you'd expect.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04And here we go. Watch this.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07- NAOMI GASPS Ta-da!- Oh, my goodness!- Ohh!
0:16:07 > 0:16:12- Wow!- It's rather sweet, isn't it? I think it's got age.
0:16:12 > 0:16:17You worry that these things can be knocked up, a bit of old brown paint and dust,
0:16:17 > 0:16:21but I think that's probably pucker, to be honest with you.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23They look like handmade screws.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25- See, the slots are uneven?- Yes.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- Do you like it?- I like it.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29- I like it. - Working with children, I like it.
0:16:29 > 0:16:34- A little girl might love to play with that! - I think she would.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36'It's the item to have, Paul.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39'Are those Reds losing their heads?'
0:16:39 > 0:16:43- Head things! - These aren't terribly old. They're very decorative, though.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47- You're working to a theme here, I think.- I would put that on the mantelpiece, as well.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50You could do. They're not terribly heavy.
0:16:50 > 0:16:5235 for Zeus.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54And... Ooh, he's heavier.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58Ooh, 35 for Fred. Quite decorative.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01You've gone with the unusual interior-type...
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Do you want me to...?
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Oh... I don't... - HE STAMMERS
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Come on! I tell you what, we'll walk down here quickly.
0:17:10 > 0:17:12'It's a shake of the head for the Reds,
0:17:12 > 0:17:16'and another headache for poor Jeremy by the look of things.'
0:17:16 > 0:17:20- Hello!- We're all friends! - That's a look of dread!- Oh, no!
0:17:20 > 0:17:22- Right...- Who's kicking off?
0:17:22 > 0:17:26- We have found something which we like.- This.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- Very good, yes.- Erm...
0:17:29 > 0:17:32My mother used to sit me in this, do you realise that?!
0:17:32 > 0:17:35- You've grown a bit. - I was a small baby.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38We're just really, obviously, price...
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Yes. Er...
0:17:40 > 0:17:43- Could you do £15?- No!
0:17:43 > 0:17:46'Cheeky.' No, no, no. £30.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48- 25.- I can't.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51- Please, Jeremy! - I tell you what - 28.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- There we go.- 26 and you've got yourself a bargain!
0:17:54 > 0:17:59- Or WE'VE got ourselves a bargain! - You've got yourselves a bargain!
0:17:59 > 0:18:02'Ooh, you girls! Give Jeremy a break, the poor man!'
0:18:02 > 0:18:05This is quite a nice table.
0:18:05 > 0:18:09- It's got 88 on it. - I quite like that.- So do I.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Oh, wow! Hey!
0:18:11 > 0:18:14OK, have a better look at it.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18It is the sort of thing, a lot of furniture isn't selling well, but that is nice.
0:18:18 > 0:18:25It's nicely done all the way through. It's Art Nouveau. It's useful.
0:18:25 > 0:18:2888's not out of the way. But if you want to come back...
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Should we be decisive and do it?
0:18:30 > 0:18:33This or the heads. What do you reckon?
0:18:33 > 0:18:35JAKE SIGHS
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Quick! We're going to be out of time.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39- Both say it after three. - DAN STAMMERS
0:18:39 > 0:18:42- Three, two, one...- BOTH: Heads.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46'So heads it is for the boys. 'Is it a chair for the girls?'
0:18:46 > 0:18:51- We're coming back here if we lose money! - How badly wrong can it go at 28?
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- OK.- Take a punt.- 28.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Well done. I'm so pleased you've made a decision!
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Does he seem relieved?
0:19:00 > 0:19:03- "Get these two out of my shop!" - Thanks for that!
0:19:03 > 0:19:07- Right, you've only got five minutes left to play with.- Third and final...
0:19:07 > 0:19:10No! Five minutes!
0:19:10 > 0:19:14'Yes, you heard the man. Five minutes, girls. Pressure's on.'
0:19:14 > 0:19:17They're not going to come down that much.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20If you can negotiate anywhere near 50... Are you happy with that?
0:19:20 > 0:19:25- I'm just thinking about the table, but we've made a decision.- 'What?'
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- You haven't got them yet. - What do you reckon? Quick?
0:19:28 > 0:19:30The table's going to go for more, isn't it?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33- Back to the table! - Back to the table.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35'Oh, Claire! These teams, eh?'
0:19:35 > 0:19:37- Ooh!- What?
0:19:37 > 0:19:41- I like the look of these.- Ooh! Binoculars!- I don't even know why!
0:19:41 > 0:19:44I was going to say, they're not very girlie.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48They are bent. They've been dropped on that eyepiece.
0:19:48 > 0:19:53- There is leather missing from here. BOTH:- Oh, no.- The lid is detached,
0:19:53 > 0:19:56But, but-but-but-but-but, bear with me, they're engraved.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01It says, "To Colour Sergeant Lewis,
0:20:01 > 0:20:06"from Captain HAN Fyers MVO... 1901"
0:20:06 > 0:20:09dating them to the Boer War.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11- Wow!- Us fighting in South Africa.
0:20:11 > 0:20:16- This is all of a sudden sexy and... - Collectable.- If you like sexy...!
0:20:16 > 0:20:19And they're by Negretti & Zambra.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23- Is that good?- It's a good name in British instrument-making.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26But it's all in the provenance. And at 22,
0:20:26 > 0:20:29that's the kind of thing that can do well because of the history.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32'Three minutes left, everyone.'
0:20:32 > 0:20:36We're rather taken by this rather pretty table here.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38I'm supposed to do £80, but whereabouts are you?
0:20:38 > 0:20:39We were thinking 60.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Straight in at 60.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45- Go on, then.- Well done, guys!
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Thank you very much. That's excellent.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49- Cheers.- That's wicked.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52Hey, done!
0:20:52 > 0:20:55'I can't believe it. The Reds have cracked it.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58'Come on, Blues! Tally-ho! What!'
0:20:58 > 0:21:02- I think -- Do you like them? - I think they're worth 20 to 40.
0:21:02 > 0:21:06- OK.- Shout on Jeremy?- 'Yes.' - Not girlie, but profitable.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09No. Yes. Jeremy! JEREMY!
0:21:09 > 0:21:14Jeremy... Ahh! I saw this earlier!
0:21:14 > 0:21:17- 'Oh, no!'- I couldn't see the price. The price is?
0:21:17 > 0:21:22Well, it's £35 he was asking for it, but it can be £25.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25- Oh! £25!- Take a quick look.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27That's English silver, mother-of-pearl handle
0:21:27 > 0:21:31- and it's a little tea caddy shovel, a caddy spoon.- OK.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33- '30 seconds...'- Priced at 25.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36- What's the price on the binoculars? They're clapped-out, beat.- Rubbish!
0:21:36 > 0:21:39- A tenner.- Not rubbish!- Tenner?
0:21:39 > 0:21:41- That's the pretty...- Yes.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44What are they worth? That's worth 30 to 40.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Yes, that's worth 30 to 50. It's really nice.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50They are worth 20 to 40.
0:21:50 > 0:21:54That's pretty and girlie. They're the tired collector's piece.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58It's anybody's guess. What does your instinct tell you?
0:21:58 > 0:22:00- This one!- Have we got a consensus?
0:22:00 > 0:22:03- 'Ten, nine, eight...' - This one! This one!
0:22:03 > 0:22:05- '..seven, six...' - You can't have both.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08- '..five, four, three...' - I don't know.- Quick! This one, then!
0:22:08 > 0:22:10- '..two, one!'- I prefer...
0:22:10 > 0:22:14- I prefer that because of the history.- Let's do this. Whoohoo!
0:22:14 > 0:22:16- We've done it!- Done. Done.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21'And relax. Gosh! I'm worn out.'
0:22:21 > 0:22:25'Let's sit back and remind ourselves what the Red Team bought.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30'The 1930s table gong was their first bash at a bargain. £26 paid.'
0:22:31 > 0:22:37'They forked out £35 for the 20th-century African wooden mask.
0:22:37 > 0:22:42'And finally, their lily-decorated Art Nouveau table cost them £60.'
0:22:44 > 0:22:49Claire, I think you need a medal, because these are very enthusiastic, these guys!
0:22:49 > 0:22:53- What did you spend all round?- £121.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56May I have £179?
0:22:56 > 0:23:01- It's not easy for students, is it, to hand it over?- It's painful! - It's the most money I've ever had.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05- Which is your favourite piece? - My favourite is the African mask.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09- Do you agree with that, Jakey? - No. The gong, definitely.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12- All right. Fine.- It's beautiful.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15- Is your gong going to bring the biggest price?- Of course it will.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17- Do you agree? - I'll back him with the gong.
0:23:17 > 0:23:22- Well, quite amicable, then, Claire. - Yes.- There's a wodge of cash for you.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25Thank you. I'm going to be very decisive with this.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27- I'll find something interesting for you.- I'm excited.
0:23:27 > 0:23:31We do love a bit of quirk! Good luck with that.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought?
0:23:34 > 0:23:38'They didn't want to let go of the silver-plated George III candlesticks
0:23:38 > 0:23:41'and finally paid £60 for them.
0:23:41 > 0:23:46'They spent £28 on this child's metamorphic high chair.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49'And they made a truly last-minute decision
0:23:49 > 0:23:53'to pay £10 for the pair of Boer War binoculars.'
0:23:56 > 0:24:01I have to say that Paul looks like the man who's got the cream today.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04- Now, have you had a bonny time with these bonny girls?- We have.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08- Yes!- We try.- Lucky old pupil, Laidlow, I tell you!
0:24:08 > 0:24:10What did you spend in total?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12BOTH: £98 in total.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14- What, on the whole lot?- BOTH: Yes.
0:24:14 > 0:24:19- You're supposed to be women! - It's our hard bargaining! - Was that what it is? OK, fine.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- Anyway, I'd like £202 of leftover lolly, please.- OK.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25- The big sis...- Thank you, sister.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- And you've got the two smackers, too?- There you go.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- £202 go across to Paul Laidlow. - Thank you.
0:24:30 > 0:24:34Are you going to find something blingy, girlie, gorgeous to go with this team, or what?
0:24:34 > 0:24:38To be honest, given the panic in the last minute,
0:24:38 > 0:24:42I'm going to see how much counselling I can get for that!
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Go and have a quick lie down! Good luck.
0:24:45 > 0:24:50Meanwhile, we're heading off to somewhere absolutely splendiferous.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55Nestling in the idyllic Cotswolds countryside,
0:24:55 > 0:25:01Chastleton House was built in the early 17th century by wool merchant Walter Jones,
0:25:01 > 0:25:06who was keen to establish himself as the quintessential country gent,
0:25:06 > 0:25:10creating an impressive Jacobean manor with gardens.
0:25:10 > 0:25:14But if you think this place looks gorgeous from the outside,
0:25:14 > 0:25:17you wait till you see what's inside.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21It wasn't just the entrance floor
0:25:21 > 0:25:25that would've been used for displaying the family's wares in a house like this,
0:25:25 > 0:25:30let me take you upstairs. By jingo, there are many of those!
0:25:30 > 0:25:34It goes on...
0:25:35 > 0:25:37..and on...
0:25:38 > 0:25:41..until finally,
0:25:41 > 0:25:44we arrive - whoo! -
0:25:44 > 0:25:48in this magnificent space.
0:25:48 > 0:25:5172 feet in length,
0:25:51 > 0:25:54this is the only gallery
0:25:54 > 0:25:58on the third floor of a Jacobean or Tudor house
0:25:58 > 0:26:01anywhere in Britain.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Isn't it magnificent?
0:26:03 > 0:26:09Some of the pieces of furniture up here are important, like this coffer.
0:26:09 > 0:26:11It dates from around about 1500
0:26:11 > 0:26:14and is either Spanish or Italian.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16It's the covering that I'm interested in,
0:26:16 > 0:26:21because where it looks so tatty on the top and peeling,
0:26:21 > 0:26:24that's because it's actually covered in leather
0:26:24 > 0:26:28that's been very beautifully and expertly tooled.
0:26:28 > 0:26:29You see it best on the front
0:26:29 > 0:26:33where all these shapes have been cut into the leather
0:26:33 > 0:26:36to make a series of fish scales,
0:26:36 > 0:26:39and then those fish scales have been painted.
0:26:39 > 0:26:44When this was made, it would've been incredibly flash and important.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48A bit tatty now but it could be restored,
0:26:48 > 0:26:52and is really very, very special.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Almost as special as this fellow.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02Scroll forward 280 years or so
0:27:02 > 0:27:05and we've got some more clapped-out leather,
0:27:05 > 0:27:09this time, enclosing a squeezy section
0:27:09 > 0:27:11on something called an exercise horse -
0:27:11 > 0:27:15just the thing to have in a long gallery like this.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19Because on wet days, when you can't go riding,
0:27:19 > 0:27:23you'd come up here, get your legs astride this fellow
0:27:23 > 0:27:24and bounce up and down
0:27:24 > 0:27:27so that your legs would get the exercise
0:27:27 > 0:27:30and remain rigid and hard
0:27:30 > 0:27:35and suitable to get on top of a seriously hairy horse
0:27:35 > 0:27:38next time the weather cleared up.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42And finally, I've found my hobby horse
0:27:42 > 0:27:44and I'm going to get on it.
0:27:44 > 0:27:45Isn't this great?
0:27:45 > 0:27:48This is typical of the survival of kit
0:27:48 > 0:27:51here at Chastleton House.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54This is not a hobby horse for the squeamish, though,
0:27:54 > 0:27:58because the cut-out timber head of the horse itself
0:27:58 > 0:28:00has a little piece of mane on it,
0:28:00 > 0:28:04the only thing is, that this is a piece of real mane.
0:28:04 > 0:28:07That wouldn't have made any difference to the Victorian child, though.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09The eldest one would get on board like this
0:28:09 > 0:28:12and because it's a five-person hobby horse,
0:28:12 > 0:28:15he'd get his siblings up the end here
0:28:15 > 0:28:18and then they would've trotted off to the auction!
0:28:18 > 0:28:20Just like us...
0:28:24 > 0:28:27One more. Go on. 35.
0:28:27 > 0:28:2935 pounds.
0:28:32 > 0:28:36Well, we've come 30 miles or so north from Leominster
0:28:36 > 0:28:40to the lovely town of Shrewsbury to be with Jeremy Lamond.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43- Welcome, Tim.- Very nice to see you, at Halls saleroom.
0:28:43 > 0:28:47The big question today is, how's our gong going to go?
0:28:47 > 0:28:50It's a fairly ordinary dinner gong. Made in Burma, I think.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53- How much?- Erm, 20 to 30.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56I had a funny feeling you were going to say that. £26 paid.
0:28:56 > 0:29:00- Now, what about this old mask? - I don't think it's an old mask. - Do you not?
0:29:00 > 0:29:03I think it's what we might loosely call airport art.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06It's something you'd buy before you hopped on the plane.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08If you look at it here, it's been...
0:29:08 > 0:29:10- Oh, yes. Look at that. - It's been made up.
0:29:10 > 0:29:12Around the eyes and the mouth and the nostrils.
0:29:12 > 0:29:15- 30 to 50?- Mm.- £35 paid.
0:29:15 > 0:29:19How do you feel about this lily-carved table?
0:29:19 > 0:29:23- Does that do it for you? - I think that that is Art Nouveau,
0:29:23 > 0:29:27whether it's French or Japanese is difficult to say.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30The wood is certainly an exotic Asian wood.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33I think it's well done but it's fairly simply made.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35I rather like the lily pattern, don't you?
0:29:35 > 0:29:38Somebody will love it for 30, 50 pounds.
0:29:38 > 0:29:40- Is that what it's worth?- Yes. - Our lot paid 60.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44- Right.- Claire fell in love with it. She thought it was a cracker.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46What you need is somebody else to fall in love with it, too.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48- A couple of people, actually.- Yes.
0:29:48 > 0:29:51- You're going to be taking the sale, aren't you?- I am.
0:29:51 > 0:29:54You're very good at matchmaking. I've noticed it in the past.
0:29:54 > 0:29:58In case you fail, our teams will definitely need their bonus buy.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Let's go and have a look at it.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03You two rogues! I mean, just look at you!
0:30:03 > 0:30:06You spent £121,
0:30:06 > 0:30:10you gave £179 to that poor Claire Rawle.
0:30:10 > 0:30:15What did you buy, Claire? I'm going to help you here, darling. One, two, three...
0:30:15 > 0:30:17BOTH: Ooh.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19A leather suitcase! Nice brass fittings. It's in good order.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21The stitching's good, which is important.
0:30:21 > 0:30:23It's become really collectable recently.
0:30:23 > 0:30:27- How old is it? - It's going to be early 20th century,
0:30:27 > 0:30:30in the days when you actually had people to carry your luggage for you
0:30:30 > 0:30:33because it weighs a tonne, believe me, empty!
0:30:33 > 0:30:36Would you go away for the weekend with that, Jake?
0:30:36 > 0:30:39If I had a lorry to put it in, or Dan to carry it for me!
0:30:39 > 0:30:41- We'd have a nice getaway. - A little retreat!
0:30:41 > 0:30:44- It looks lovely. How much did you spend?- £50.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47- Bargain! - It's a tactical buy. That was good.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51- How much profit?- I hope we'll see good profit on this.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54It's difficult to tell at auction but I've found that these things,
0:30:54 > 0:30:58especially with the online sales, are making good money
0:30:58 > 0:31:00so I'm hoping for reasonable profit.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02- Good.- We've got a confident prediction there, chaps.
0:31:02 > 0:31:06Just live with those thoughts, while for the audience at home
0:31:06 > 0:31:10we'll check out what the auctioneer thinks about Claire's case.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15- Well, J, this is bulletproof. Really thick pigskin.- Yes.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17I like this bar effect
0:31:17 > 0:31:21because it gives you an expanding nature to your case.
0:31:21 > 0:31:24That's right. Revelation are known, as was Crescent,
0:31:24 > 0:31:29for expandable luggage like this in the mid-to-late 20th century,
0:31:29 > 0:31:32and they were pioneers in that area.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35- It's a good idea, though, isn't it? - Yes.- If you're going away,
0:31:35 > 0:31:38- you can make the case bigger or smaller.- That's right.
0:31:38 > 0:31:42- OK, tell us what your estimate is. - 30 to 50.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44Claire Rawle paid £50 and she really rates it.
0:31:44 > 0:31:48Luggage is on the up at the moment so I think she might be right.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51If the team decide to go with it... Anyway, now for the Blues.
0:31:51 > 0:31:55First up, the pair of Sheffield plate candlesticks.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57They're not rare, are they?
0:31:57 > 0:32:01- No, but they are old.- They are. I mean, they're 19th century.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04What you want with candlesticks is to know that they are straight,
0:32:04 > 0:32:06not leaning either way.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08They're OK.
0:32:08 > 0:32:12- 60 to 100.- Is that your estimate? - Yes.- Oh, well, that's magic!
0:32:12 > 0:32:14What about the child's high chair?
0:32:14 > 0:32:18Well, I've looked at this again and, at first glance,
0:32:18 > 0:32:23it looks like a 19th-century Victorian doll's high chair.
0:32:23 > 0:32:27But if you look at the overall look of it and the thickness of the wood,
0:32:27 > 0:32:30this may well have been made quite recently.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33I don't know what they paid for it but we put 20 or 30 pounds on it.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38- They paid £28 for it. - Well, that would sort of make sense if it's not as old as it looks.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40OK. They may or may not make a profit.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44Next is the binoculars, which are certainly genuine, aren't they?
0:32:44 > 0:32:48These are old. They're marked 1901.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51They've got a dedication from a Colour Sergeant Lewis
0:32:51 > 0:32:54to a Captain Fyers.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58- This is missing its casing here, which will hold it back. - Yes, the little holder.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02They've also been dropped. We're really looking at £20 to £30.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04But it's all about the dedication.
0:33:04 > 0:33:08If you find out who Captain Fyers was or Colour Sergeant Lewis,
0:33:08 > 0:33:11there might be a story, which would raise the game.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13£10 they paid, so they paid the right price.
0:33:13 > 0:33:17This is a typical Laidlow cunning purchase, I'd say.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20The next step is, will they need their bonus buy?
0:33:20 > 0:33:22Let's go and have a look at it.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Girls, you've got your eyes closed for a good reason
0:33:25 > 0:33:30because Paul is about to reveal what he spent £202 on.
0:33:30 > 0:33:33- Paul, reveal all! Girls! - Can we look?- Yes, you can look.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35Ta-da!
0:33:35 > 0:33:37- GIRLS LAUGH NERVOUSLY - What is it?
0:33:37 > 0:33:41- Is it a baby's manger? - Oh, yes! Like a Moses basket!
0:33:41 > 0:33:44- Are you seeing it now? Are the pieces falling together?- I get it!
0:33:44 > 0:33:47There's age to it and credibility, authenticity.
0:33:47 > 0:33:50And as a boy interested in mechanical things,
0:33:50 > 0:33:53the construction fascinates me.
0:33:53 > 0:33:55Look at this joint here.
0:33:55 > 0:34:00You've got this big bamboo length, you cut a little V-shaped check or mitre in it,
0:34:00 > 0:34:03but you don't break all the way through, you leave a web,
0:34:03 > 0:34:07and then you can turn that round this rail here
0:34:07 > 0:34:11and it's held together not with nails, glue and screws,
0:34:11 > 0:34:13but by little pegs.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15The man that made this, this is what he did.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18He worked in bamboo, he knew his medium.
0:34:18 > 0:34:23- When we drill down, when we get past the shock of "What is that?"...- Yes.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26..I think it reveals itself. It is fascinating.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28How much was it?
0:34:28 > 0:34:30- What do you rate it at? - Do you see £202, girls?
0:34:30 > 0:34:32£40.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35- I would've said 80. - Funny you say that!
0:34:35 > 0:34:37It was not £40!
0:34:37 > 0:34:40- Bang on £40.- No!- Oh, my goodness!
0:34:40 > 0:34:42Naomi, you're a brilliant woman.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45You're in the nursery baby-business, right?
0:34:45 > 0:34:49- Yes.- Would you wrap a baby in swaddling clothes and place it in a manger like this?
0:34:49 > 0:34:53- No.- Health and safety - maybe not! - Health and safety would stop me from doing that!
0:34:53 > 0:34:55We'll find out in a moment.
0:34:55 > 0:35:00But let's check with the auctioneer what he thinks about the cradle.
0:35:00 > 0:35:04Jeremy, I feel something bamboo coming on and it's right beside you.
0:35:04 > 0:35:08Here it is. It's a Far Eastern child's cradle.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11Again, bamboo's quite difficult to date.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14I would say it's 20 or 30 pounds again.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16Laidlow paid £40.
0:35:16 > 0:35:20- Did he?- He did.- He's seen something in it which I clearly haven't.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23All will be revealed in a moment.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Daniel, Jake, nervy?
0:35:29 > 0:35:33- Excited.- I think excited. - Oh, you're more excited.
0:35:33 > 0:35:38What's your prediction now as to which item's going to bring the biggest profit?
0:35:38 > 0:35:40We said the gong. We reckon the gong.
0:35:40 > 0:35:43Everything else - we'll see.
0:35:43 > 0:35:47- If all else fails, you've got the suitcase to fall back on. - We have.- Definitely.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50- Pack all your winnings in there. - It's a dead cert!
0:35:50 > 0:35:54Brilliant. First up, the table gong. Here it comes.
0:35:54 > 0:35:58Lot 94, the table gong. 1930s.
0:35:58 > 0:36:02Start me at £15. 15 is bid. Thank you. Who'll go £18 on it?
0:36:02 > 0:36:05- 15 only here. - Dear, oh, dear!- Oh, Jake!
0:36:05 > 0:36:07I'll take 18. 18 now.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11- There we go!- 22? 22? 25?
0:36:11 > 0:36:13A game is hanging on this! Hands up if you want it.
0:36:13 > 0:36:18- £25.- I don't believe it. £25.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20- You are minus £1. - Still in touch. It's OK.
0:36:20 > 0:36:2695 - the African rosewood mask. Start me at £25 again. At 25.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28£25.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31- £20. Who's got £20 for it?- Come on!
0:36:31 > 0:36:3520 bid. At £20. Two.
0:36:35 > 0:36:36£22.
0:36:36 > 0:36:38- It's a cracking mask! - It's a great mask.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41Five - internet. 25. 28.
0:36:41 > 0:36:4428. It's in the room with you, sir. Selling at 28.
0:36:44 > 0:36:46£28. That's minus seven.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- That's minus eight overall. - Save us, table.- OK, now...
0:36:49 > 0:36:54Lot 96 is the Art Nouveau two-tier table, with hexagonal top.
0:36:54 > 0:36:58Lot 96 showing there. Already I'm bid £30.
0:36:58 > 0:37:0230 is bid. Five. 40. Five. Commission's out.
0:37:02 > 0:37:06£45. 50. Five. 60. Five.
0:37:06 > 0:37:0965. On my right, then, at 65.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11All done?
0:37:11 > 0:37:14It's a profit. £65. That's plus £5.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17You are overall minus three!
0:37:17 > 0:37:22- That's terrible, isn't it? Minus three smackers! - It's OK.- It's not too bad.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25- We want to be ahead! - At that stage, it's all right.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28- What are you going to do about the suitcase?- Take it.
0:37:28 > 0:37:33- I love your confidence, Dan. Is he always like this? - Unfortunately, yes.
0:37:33 > 0:37:37- What do you mean, unfortunately? - Well, when you live with him... - When it comes to suitcases...!
0:37:37 > 0:37:42- That's what we're doing?- Definitely. - We're going with the bonus buy, the suitcase of the century.
0:37:42 > 0:37:47Lot 100, a brown leather expanding suitcase with brass locks, by Revelation.
0:37:47 > 0:37:51At £20. 20. Start me at £20.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54Expanding suitcase. 25 already on the net.
0:37:54 > 0:37:5825. 30. At £30. At five. 35.
0:37:58 > 0:38:0340. Five. 45 on my right, then, at 45.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06All finished, then, at £45 on my right.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Selling - 45.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10- THEY GROAN - Bad luck, Claire.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- £45 is minus £5.- We were so close.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Overall, you're minus £8,
0:38:15 > 0:38:17which, quite frankly, lads, is neither here nor there.
0:38:17 > 0:38:22- This could easily be a winning score so don't say a word to the Blues. - We won't.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32- Well, girls, this is exciting, isn't it?- BOTH: Yes!
0:38:32 > 0:38:36- Do you know how the boys got on? - BOTH: No.- Good. They didn't tell you.
0:38:36 > 0:38:40- We want to beat them, though! - You look nervy.- I'm so nervous! - Why?- I don't know!
0:38:40 > 0:38:44- We want to win.- I really think we're going to win.- You do?- Yes.
0:38:44 > 0:38:47- You've got a feeling.- I have a feeling, but I'm still nervous.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50First up, the Sheffield plate candlesticks.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Lot 111,
0:38:52 > 0:38:57the George III old Sheffield plate candlesticks with reeded borders.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Who's going to start me at £50 for them? 50?
0:39:00 > 0:39:04£50. 50 bid. 50. 50 only.
0:39:04 > 0:39:05£40?
0:39:05 > 0:39:07- £40?!- 40.
0:39:07 > 0:39:1140 bid. I'll take two if you want.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14At £40. £40. Gentleman here at 40.
0:39:14 > 0:39:20- Come on.- I'm selling at 40. Internet, you're out. At £40...
0:39:20 > 0:39:24- No!- I don't believe that, baby!
0:39:24 > 0:39:26His estimate was 60 to 100.
0:39:26 > 0:39:31Anyway, minus 20. Come on! Let's go with the doll's high chair.
0:39:31 > 0:39:38112 - the doll's metamorphic feeding high chair.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41This may be more 21st century...
0:39:41 > 0:39:44- ..than 19th. GIRLS:- No!- Antique!
0:39:44 > 0:39:48Lot 112. Who's going to have a go at it? £20 for it. 20.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51The little chair at £20. 20.
0:39:51 > 0:39:54Ten, then, to go.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56- Who's got £10?- Come on!
0:39:56 > 0:39:59- 10. The internet's got £10. - GIRLS: Yes!
0:39:59 > 0:40:02LAUGHTER
0:40:02 > 0:40:0510. Put them out of their misery, someone, and bid 12!
0:40:05 > 0:40:10Anybody else, at £10 only. It's going to an internet bidder.
0:40:10 > 0:40:13- Ah, thanks, internet. - You're all out in the room.- Oh, no!
0:40:13 > 0:40:15- £10 is minus 18.- Ohh!
0:40:15 > 0:40:19Minus £38 overall, girls. Now the binoculars...
0:40:19 > 0:40:25..this pair of Boer War period binoculars by Negretti & Zambra. Good maker.
0:40:25 > 0:40:29Who'll start me at £15? 15 is bid at the very back of the room.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32£15 it is. 18 on the internet. 20 now.
0:40:32 > 0:40:35- At £20.- £20!- 25.- Yes!
0:40:35 > 0:40:39£25. At 25. It's an internet bid.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43At £25, I'm selling. 25.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45That's marvellous!
0:40:45 > 0:40:50- You've just made £15, Miriam, just like that!- BOTH: Yay!
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Overall, you're minus £23.
0:40:52 > 0:40:55- Are you going to go with the bonus buy or not?- Yes.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58- Going with the bamboo.- Let's go. - You're trusting Paul?- We do.
0:40:58 > 0:41:03117 is the Chinese vernacular bamboo cradle.
0:41:03 > 0:41:05Here it is. Lot 117. The first one I've seen.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41That's 10 pounds.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44Minus 23, less your £10, means you're minus £13,
0:41:44 > 0:41:48- which could be a winning score. - That isn't too bad.- It could be.
0:41:48 > 0:41:52- Yay!- All will be revealed in a minute. Well done.
0:41:58 > 0:42:01So, who's ahead and who's behind?
0:42:01 > 0:42:05- Have you been chatting, you teams? - ALL: No!- Silence.- Not a word? - Not a word.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08- Are you competitive, you lot?- Yes!
0:42:08 > 0:42:10- Yes, you are! - We don't even want to talk to them.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12I can tell you that there's...
0:42:12 > 0:42:16- ..about a £5-note between you. - BOYS: Whoa!
0:42:16 > 0:42:22- And I can tell you that nobody's going home with money.- Yoo-hoo!
0:42:22 > 0:42:27And the team that is marginally behind are...
0:42:27 > 0:42:29- ..the Blues. - THEY GROAN

0:42:37 > 0:42:40- Have you had a good time, though, girls?- Loved every second.
0:42:40 > 0:42:45- How many more sisters are there like you lurking around at home? - Another two. Whoohoo!
0:42:45 > 0:42:47That's another programme!
0:42:47 > 0:42:52The victors today, who managed to win by only losing £8, are the boys.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54- Never in doubt.- Never in doubt.
0:42:54 > 0:42:57You didn't have the most brilliant profits,
0:42:57 > 0:43:01but relatively minimal losses, so that's fair enough!
0:43:01 > 0:43:04- Had a good time?- Cracking!- Loved it. - We've enjoyed having you.
