0:00:03 > 0:00:05It's big.
0:00:05 > 0:00:06It's bold.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08It's Ardingly.
0:00:08 > 0:00:12It's an international antiques fair in West Sussex
0:00:12 > 0:00:14jam-packed with goodies.
0:00:14 > 0:00:18So let's get up and at it - let's go bargain hunting! Yeah!
0:00:39 > 0:00:42MUSIC: "We Found Love" by Rihanna ft Calvin Harris
0:00:42 > 0:00:45Boasting the top end of 2,000 stalls,
0:00:45 > 0:00:50Ardingly has considerable buzz, but if our teams today are going
0:00:50 > 0:00:53to stand any chance of spotting that hidden gem,
0:00:53 > 0:00:57they're going to have to pull their fingers out - big-time!
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Here's a quick look at how today's teams got on.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Today the Reds are in it to win it.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10- The whole idea of it is to... - Is to sell what we've got.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13..beat the Blues, if we can.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17Hmm! While the Blues get slightly overwhelmed by the task in hand.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20I've no idea what I'm looking for!
0:01:20 > 0:01:22I'm like, "Ooh!"
0:01:22 > 0:01:26That's all coming up, but first let's meet the teams.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Well, this is extraordinary, isn't it?
0:01:30 > 0:01:33Two teams, each with lovely ladies with bright red hair
0:01:33 > 0:01:35and bright orange handbags.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38We have Barbara and Stirling for the Reds and we have
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Emma and William for the Blues. Welcome, everybody.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- ALL: Thank you. - Really lovely to see you.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Now, Barbara, you are resplendent today in red.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Was it this sense of style that first attracted Stirling,
0:01:49 > 0:01:50- do you think?- I don't know.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54He had a cousin. When she got married I went to the wedding,
0:01:54 > 0:01:55but he ignored me.
0:01:55 > 0:02:00Two weeks later we met in London at a club and he came over
0:02:00 > 0:02:02- and that's history. - Really?- Yes, yes.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06- Now, you're one of a twin. - I am.- An identical twin?- Identical.
0:02:06 > 0:02:10And did you ever have any confusion between you and your sister?
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Well, we did cos Stirling actually, at first,
0:02:12 > 0:02:14couldn't tell the difference.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18In fact, I wasn't sure if he was interested in me or my sister.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20So, no identifying features to differentiate
0:02:20 > 0:02:22you between one from t'other?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25- I'm slightly taller than my sister. - Yes!
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Don't go there, Stirling. I tell you!
0:02:28 > 0:02:31You just don't say anything about that question, Stirling,
0:02:31 > 0:02:33or you're in trouble, I can tell you!
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Now, apart from having an obsession, naturally, with Barbara,
0:02:36 > 0:02:39you're also keen on something that's a bit more prickly, aren't you?
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Yeah, I grow cactus and succulent plants.
0:02:41 > 0:02:44So, how many of these prickly jobs have you got?
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- At least 3,000, probably a few more now.- 3,000 cacti!- Yeah.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51- How long does it take you to water them?- Um...a week.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Do you say to Barbara, "I'm just going out to water the plants,"
0:02:55 > 0:02:56and you come back a week later?
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Well, not really, I mean, I come back...
0:02:58 > 0:03:03- This is not good for a relationship! - I come back for food now and again!
0:03:03 > 0:03:05You surface for beans and then you go back
0:03:05 > 0:03:07and do a bit more watering for another week!
0:03:07 > 0:03:09It's good for the marriage, though!
0:03:09 > 0:03:12That is amazing! Now for the Blues.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16Em, it took you quite a long time to get hitched with Wills, didn't it?
0:03:16 > 0:03:19It did. Um, we went to school together
0:03:19 > 0:03:21so from, like, the age of 11 we knew each other.
0:03:21 > 0:03:26- However, we didn't actually get together until I was 17.- Right.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29And then we were together ten years...
0:03:29 > 0:03:33- before he asked me to marry him. - Never! Ten whole years!
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Wills, what took you the time, mate? - I just like to make sure.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40- I don't want to rush into these things.- So, what do you get up to?
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Are you keen on working? Do you work or are you a student?
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Yeah, I work as a pensions administrator.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Um, it's, you know, a normal office job, however,
0:03:49 > 0:03:53we have quite a good hobby - we're in a band together.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56I sing and Will plays keys and guitar,
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- so we do that with a group of friends.- Do you?
0:03:59 > 0:04:02Now, William, I gather you spend your life making people sick?
0:04:02 > 0:04:06That's right, Tim, yeah. I work for a large security and defence company
0:04:06 > 0:04:09and part of my job is trying to ensure that our military personnel
0:04:09 > 0:04:11can really perform at their best.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14And part of that is our air crew who fly every day in fast jets.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17They actually get travel-sick like you or I would in a car.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19- Do they, really?- Obviously it's a bit more of a problem
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- if you're zooming along in, you know...- In your Typhoon.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26Yeah, so every day, twice a day, we make them sick
0:04:26 > 0:04:28in a variety of ways, so we either spin them
0:04:28 > 0:04:31round on essentially a glorified office chair or we swing them
0:04:31 > 0:04:34from side to side, shake them up and down in a box
0:04:34 > 0:04:38- and you do build up a tolerance. - Well, what an interesting job.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Now, the next part is taking the £300 apiece, that's easy.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- There you go, there's £300. - Thank you.- You know the rules.- I do.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Your experts await and off you go, and very, very, very good luck.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51I think I'm feeling a bit sick myself.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Making sure she can cash in some profits for the Reds is
0:05:01 > 0:05:03the delectable Kate Bliss.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07And believing he can already detect the sweet smell of success,
0:05:07 > 0:05:11it's Charles Hanson for the Blues.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- So, Stirling, Barbara...- Yes. - Are you ready for this?- Absolutely.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Wills, Emma, this is it, OK?
0:05:16 > 0:05:19This is the hour of stardom. It could change your life.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21So, what do you want to buy, you two? Any ideas?
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Anything that's going to make us a load of money.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25- Sounds good to me.- Beat the Blues.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28- Well, me, personally, I like furniture.- Uh-huh.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30I love, like, the vintage vibe.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- Do I detect a bit of competition creeping in there?- Yes.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36I really like musical instruments, anything musical, but I also
0:05:36 > 0:05:38- really like design, so anything that just looks cool.- OK.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- I don't really know anything about...- If we head this way...
0:05:41 > 0:05:43- Yeah.- I know where to take you. - Great.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Shall we make a start? What about over there?
0:05:45 > 0:05:46- It looks good.- Come on, then.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51What do you think of those? Very decorative, aren't they?
0:05:51 > 0:05:52What do you think, Stirling?
0:05:52 > 0:05:54- Yes.- They're wall lights, you see.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57So that would be fixed flush to the wall,
0:05:57 > 0:05:59they're wired for electricity,
0:05:59 > 0:06:02and then you've got your opaque coloured glass shade there.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- I mean, they're certainly Edwardian in style.- Right.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I'm just wondering,
0:06:07 > 0:06:09cos you can get a lot of reproductions of this sort of thing.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Are they the type of thing that people would go for?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15This is the sort of thing that an interior designer would be
0:06:15 > 0:06:18looking for, a couple doing up a house that wants to put
0:06:18 > 0:06:21original features back in, and fittings.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22It's certainly that style of shade,
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- I would say it's late Victorian. - How much would they be?- I don't know.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27- Shall we find out?- Yeah, let's ask.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30Excuse me, what are you asking for these - this set?
0:06:30 > 0:06:35- Um, £80 for the lot, for the four. - £80 for the four? Are they...?
0:06:35 > 0:06:36Are they modern or...?
0:06:36 > 0:06:38I think they're sort of '50s, probably.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40What do you think? I mean, how do you feel about them?
0:06:40 > 0:06:43I'm very happy, providing we can sell them and make a profit.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Yeah, I think they would... - Or at least have a chance.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48They would probably be of interest to someone, I think.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50Yeah, yeah. They're quite nice.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Can you help us on the price of that at all, please?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Um, £70 for the four.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Is that best you can do?- That's the best. That's really cheap for that.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00You couldn't do £60?
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Um, I'll meet you halfway - £65.
0:07:03 > 0:07:04There's got to be a profit in there.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- I have to say, I'd be happy with that.- Yes, I think so.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09OK, then. All right, then.
0:07:09 > 0:07:11Well, that's the first item found in record time
0:07:11 > 0:07:15and one up on the Blue team, who are still getting into the swing of it.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16Is that too pretty for you?
0:07:18 > 0:07:23- Is that just too girly and just too...?- It's pretty.- Yeah, it is.
0:07:23 > 0:07:24But I don't know if I love it, but...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Maybe we need to think about it and see.
0:07:26 > 0:07:30I want to get you in the zone, I want to get you in it, OK?
0:07:30 > 0:07:34You know, the hour is young. You have all the time in the world.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Shall we...?
0:07:35 > 0:07:36- Let's press on.- Press on, OK.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- We're going to be experts any moment.- Well done.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Yeah, in an hour, you'll probably know as much as Charles does(!)
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Ew, it's muddy here!
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Yeah, I'm stuck in as well, yeah.
0:07:46 > 0:07:47Tick-tock!
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- You like that, Barbs? - Yes, I do like that. You like that?
0:07:50 > 0:07:51It looks very new, doesn't it?
0:07:51 > 0:07:56Well, I would say, age-wise, it's probably '50s.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00- Right.- It's just little signs like the wear on the glaze here.- Yes.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04- And on the back here.- Yeah.- And the way this metal is scratched as well.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- That's not a brand-new reproduction, I can tell you that.- OK.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11What I like about this one is these hands because they are really nice
0:08:11 > 0:08:16period hands, they're sort of almost Art Deco, actually, in style.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19For somebody who's got a retro kitchen...
0:08:21 > 0:08:23..that's quite a nice little feature.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Are they a popular thing at auction, would you say?
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- Well, clocks are always... - Acceptable, yeah.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31..going to be fairly good sellers, depending on the condition,
0:08:31 > 0:08:34obviously, and the age, but actual clock items are still good cos,
0:08:34 > 0:08:37- obviously, they have a purpose. - Sure.- They have a function.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- What do you think? - Well, I like it, but, I mean,
0:08:39 > 0:08:42it's up to Stirling as well, because...
0:08:42 > 0:08:44I'm very happy with it, you know,
0:08:44 > 0:08:47we'd just like to make a profit on what we buy.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50- I know.- Whatever it is, it is, you know?- Yeah.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Can we go and see...? Oh, here's our man.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55You have a look round here and I'll go and see...
0:08:55 > 0:08:56I do like these as well.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59At this rate, your bargain hunting will be done and dusted
0:08:59 > 0:09:00in just ten minutes.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Barbara, try and keep him under control, love, will you?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I don't think... No, it's horrible!
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Emma, you're looking bewildered again.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11I've no idea what I'm looking for, to be honest!
0:09:11 > 0:09:13It's like, "Ooh!"
0:09:13 > 0:09:17Where's my team? Your husband, isn't he a tennis player or a golf...?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Golf.- Golf, golf.- But I play tennis as well.- Yeah, isn't that sweet?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- That's nice. - A little tennis bar brooch.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25And, apparently, it's 1930s.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Do you like it, Emma? It's £65.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Oh, I don't know! I'm not sure!
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- You're not sold by it?- I don't know what I like, to be honest!
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- Keep walking for a while?- Yeah. - And come back?- Let's keep looking.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Would you wear this bar brooch?
0:09:39 > 0:09:42No, I'm like more kind of wacky jewellery. I like big and bright.
0:09:42 > 0:09:47Hang on. Any wacky jewellery, mate? Any wacky jewellery?
0:09:47 > 0:09:48Maybe a bit like you, then, Emma!
0:09:50 > 0:09:53- Well, I managed £30. What do you think?- Oh.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55I personally like it, but, um...
0:09:55 > 0:09:59This game is not what you like, it's what you're going to sell.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00You think at £30, in an auction,
0:10:00 > 0:10:03we've got a chance on making a profit on that?
0:10:03 > 0:10:04I think you've got a chance, I really do.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07I would put that - if that came into an auction -
0:10:07 > 0:10:09I would put an estimate of £30 to £50 on it.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11I would buy it if that was me, yeah.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13As long as it made the £50, I'd be very happy, yeah!
0:10:13 > 0:10:15I think... Do you know what I think?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- I think we're faffing, I think we should get it.- Yes, go on, then.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Great. Number two.- That's number two. Well done, thanks.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- Are you feeling pretty confident, you two?- Well, as I say,
0:10:23 > 0:10:26if we buy the three we could go back in the warm now, couldn't we?
0:10:26 > 0:10:30This could be the fastest shop ever seen on Bargain Hunt.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Well done, Reds, that's your second item bought.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34So, how are the Blues doing on that
0:10:34 > 0:10:37"something bold and beautiful" front?
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Guys, if you want a striking pair for a newlywed couple
0:10:41 > 0:10:44and you really want to buy the best, you'd go for something like this.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- OK.- That's what you're in for, isn't it?- I'm looking for some quality,
0:10:47 > 0:10:50I'm just a bit concerned cos it's slightly battered,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53but is that inevitable when you've got something that's 100 years old?
0:10:53 > 0:10:54I think it's probably inevitable
0:10:54 > 0:10:57because they are dressing table jars.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00What is really important with scent bottles is, number one,
0:11:00 > 0:11:03to make sure the globular glass is in good condition,
0:11:03 > 0:11:05- ie, there's no cracks or chips.- OK.
0:11:05 > 0:11:10You know, they're each certainly worth £100, in my opinion.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13- Do you both like them, then? Are you both taken by them?- I like it.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17- I like that we're buying something quality.- I mean, look at this,
0:11:17 > 0:11:21this is what you call bellflower casting on the rim as well.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24They are top-notch and if you owned a first-class cabin on board
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Titanic, these would not have been out of place. They're that good.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Cos I'm a girly girl, I love...I love...
0:11:30 > 0:11:32But are these chunky enough for you?
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Yeah. I think they're a statement.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37- Yeah.- There's one man you want to impress, don't you, as well?
0:11:37 > 0:11:40When he looks at your array of objects at the end of our hour,
0:11:40 > 0:11:44and that's Mr Wonnacott. And he would give you a big tick for these.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- You know me so well, Carlos.- See if you can make him an offer.- I'll try.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50Um, excuse me.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Would there be a deal to be made on the pair?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Um...- Would you take £160?
0:11:57 > 0:11:58No!
0:11:58 > 0:12:02I've got £110 on each, so that's £220.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05If you take the pair, the best I can do you is £180.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08It's entirely up to you. It's a big spend.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10It's nearly two-thirds of the budget.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Sir, can we come back to you?
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- You can always come back.- Can you hold them for ten minutes?- Yes.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17- It's a big spend, you see, you can do that.- Good hunting.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Thank you very much, sir, thank you.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Well done, though I'm not too keen on that price.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25We're now 20 minutes in and our Reds are doing a STIRLING job.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Eh? STIRLING?
0:12:27 > 0:12:28MUSIC: "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- Enamelled?- First impressions? Exactly, enamelled.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34They're nice, but do they sell well?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37I think the nice thing about these is the enamel is
0:12:37 > 0:12:40- just in amazing condition. - Could they be Norwegian?
0:12:40 > 0:12:43They are, exactly - you've been reading the lid, haven't you?
0:12:43 > 0:12:46These are in their original box, which is also quite nice.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49They are marked but it's teeny, teeny tiny,
0:12:49 > 0:12:52and you've got a 925, which says to me
0:12:52 > 0:12:55that they are sterling silver standard.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- I'm just not sure on the resale. - You're not struck, are you?- No.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01- Can we just have a look and then come back?- Make a mental note.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04- Do you know how much they are? - Yeah, I do know how much they are.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08- You're not going to like it. - Go on, then.- He says they're £120.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10- Did he?- Yeah.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12- Let's have a think.- I think it's a bit of a no-no at the moment.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15All right. Barbs says no.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19There's no shillyshallying with you two, it's all about making a profit.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23Unlike our dilly-dallying Blues with their expensive tastes.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27- I'd really love something like that. - But that's priceless, isn't it?
0:13:27 > 0:13:28- £450.- £450.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31That one is £175.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33It's going to be about £340.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34How much is very cheap?
0:13:34 > 0:13:36- About £350.- Oh, golly! - That's the pair.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38No, they can't afford it.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40OK, thank you very much. We'll move on.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43We've passed the halfway mark, so this is a good time for a rethink.
0:13:43 > 0:13:48- We've seen the vase that we like. - Yeah.- And the perfume bottles.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Do you mean we could go back and just get them,
0:13:50 > 0:13:55so then we've got 20 minutes or 15 minutes to find our last one?
0:13:56 > 0:13:58I wouldn't got both, I don't think,
0:13:58 > 0:14:00cos that's, like, nearly all the money.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02OK, so shall we get the...
0:14:02 > 0:14:04- perfume?- Yeah, let's get the perfume bottles.- OK.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Or we can just pretend we've bought them
0:14:06 > 0:14:08and then we know how much we've got left to spend.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- No, let's do it. - All right, let's go buy them.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- OK, team, what's the plan? - Perfume bottles.- Are you sure?
0:14:14 > 0:14:17- We're going to buy them and then we know...- Big spend. Half the budget.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20But I think then we can focus with our remaining budget.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Shall I go and get them now for £180?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25- Yeah.- Because he won't come down, will he? That was it.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28And you go that way and perhaps get looking
0:14:28 > 0:14:30- and buy something. - OK.- OK, see you soon.- OK.
0:14:30 > 0:14:33With two bargains already in the bag, at least you Reds
0:14:33 > 0:14:35can have a leisurely think about your next move.
0:14:35 > 0:14:38So, one - work out how much you have left...
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- So, it's not even £100 yet.- No, I think we could go a little bit up.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- I think so, because we don't want to leave her too much money.- No...
0:14:44 > 0:14:46That would be too easy for her, won't it?
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Two, agree your strategy...
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- The whole idea of it is to... - Sell what we've got.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53..beat the Blues, if we can.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Three, what's the perfect final item?
0:14:56 > 0:14:58I'd like to put something where, you know,
0:14:58 > 0:15:01I'd like to buy something where people that buy it can
0:15:01 > 0:15:04actually display it and not hide it away in a corner or...
0:15:04 > 0:15:06- Glass or silver or...?- Yeah.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07Four, get on with it!
0:15:07 > 0:15:09I think this is where we need to go.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Perhaps you ought to consider hunting down your expert too.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Ah! There she is!
0:15:14 > 0:15:16- Hi, guys.- Hi.- Hi.- How you doing?
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Now it's the Blues who are flying solo.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Let's try and find something we like.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29- I want something to, like, catch my eye.- OK.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31Charles! Where are you?
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Your team is looking dazed and confused,
0:15:33 > 0:15:37whereas the Reds may have found something rather showy.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40- This is the sort of thing you like, isn't it, Barbara?- Yes.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Those lovely sort of...
0:15:41 > 0:15:45But these are the, um, old ones, the genuine ones.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47Mine are really what I say are copies.
0:15:47 > 0:15:49What about this one? She's rather risque, isn't she?
0:15:49 > 0:15:51- Yes, she is a little bit. - Let's look at her.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55- Who is it? Anything on the back? - Let's have a look.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Oh, you've got a German mark on the bottom there.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01It's quite difficult to read, but she's definitely continental.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Do you see in the base there you've got
0:16:03 > 0:16:05- what I would call a little firing crack...- Yes.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08..in the base? Well, that was in the manufacture in the porcelain,
0:16:08 > 0:16:11so that helps to date it and I would say she's definitely of the period.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15She's strikingly Art Deco, even in actually her costume.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18And the colours that you've got here in the glaze,
0:16:18 > 0:16:22this bright orange is typical of the '30s, the late '20s.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24How much is that one?
0:16:24 > 0:16:25I've got £225 on her.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29And is that the best you could do?
0:16:29 > 0:16:33The absolute rock bottom on it would be £170.
0:16:36 > 0:16:40- Can we think about it?- Of course you can.- Let's put her safely back.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43- Thanks. - But, I mean, I have to say to you,
0:16:43 > 0:16:45that the fact that she is scantily clad,
0:16:45 > 0:16:49the fact that she is half undressed makes it even more commercial.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52You're not going in the next ten minutes, are you? Not now, I'm not!
0:16:52 > 0:16:54Well, now you've got something to think about, you two.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58That definitely won't go unnoticed on the mantelpiece.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01- We've only got ten minutes to go. - Oh, God.- To find two items.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Is there anything we've seen so far, Emma, that you think
0:17:04 > 0:17:07we should buy or that you like enough so that we've got...?
0:17:07 > 0:17:10I thought we had longer than ten minutes!
0:17:10 > 0:17:13So you'd better get on with it and make hay while the sun shines,
0:17:13 > 0:17:16or we may have to push the panic button.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Look at the little dog studs there. Just here, Will.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22OK, so what would they be used for, Charles?
0:17:22 > 0:17:25They would, um, back in the Edwardian times when, you know,
0:17:25 > 0:17:28elegance and sophistication was the art of costume and dress,
0:17:28 > 0:17:32you would have had these sewn onto your shirt or waistcoat or
0:17:32 > 0:17:34whatever else, and I suspect if they are...
0:17:34 > 0:17:39Hello, madam. I'm just admiring your little studs in here, or buttons.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41Are they, what, just post-Edwardian?
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Yeah, they could even be late Victorian.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46This is a really nice satin-finish case
0:17:46 > 0:17:49and you've got this nice Morocco box. A bit of wear.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Are they spaniels?
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Um, I don't know, they look like collies or something to me,
0:17:54 > 0:17:57- like sheepdogs or...? - How much are they, please?
0:17:57 > 0:17:59£28 would be the best offer.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02£28. I mean, that isn't bad because there's a huge group of dog lovers
0:18:02 > 0:18:07in Sussex, there's a huge pool of vintage costume collectors...
0:18:07 > 0:18:08I love vintage.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10And, of course, our canine friends, I think,
0:18:10 > 0:18:13would go wild for these. And if I was a gambling man,
0:18:13 > 0:18:16out of the vase and those studs,
0:18:16 > 0:18:18I would go for those dress studs.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21But, again, it's your day, Emma.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23Yeah, but we have only got, like, five minutes.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Yes, and you still have two items to find.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Now, you Reds, is there a bit of a theme going on here?
0:18:30 > 0:18:33The thing about this is she's a lovely bronze, but...
0:18:35 > 0:18:36How old is she?
0:18:36 > 0:18:41She's not very old and that's why she's affordable, OK?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43You're better off with your porcelain -
0:18:43 > 0:18:47- the lovely risque dancer. - I reckon, Barb,
0:18:47 > 0:18:51if you go back to that man and offer him £150 and see what he says.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55- You saying your wife's a charmer? - Well, she can be, yes.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58I reckon, if you offer him £150...
0:18:58 > 0:19:02it gives us three... We've spent a fair bit of money.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- It gives Kate a little bit as well. - Yeah, what have we spent?
0:19:05 > 0:19:11First item, we spend £65, we then got the clock, which was £30. £95.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15- Yeah. If you get that for £150, that's £245.- IF we get it for £150.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- What happens if he says no? - Well, if he says no, say...
0:19:20 > 0:19:22We are wasting time here. Let's go and see what he says.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Go on, see what you can do. Right, off she goes.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29You go for it, Barbara, whilst I keep my beady eye on those Blues.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Isn't that a gorgeous box? This is a beadwork
0:19:32 > 0:19:35with opaque beads, and the date on those - 1814.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38A year before the Battle of Waterloo. How much is this?
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Um, the best on that would be £55.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43CHARLES WHISTLES
0:19:43 > 0:19:46It's peculiar inside, it's almost this tin-lined centre,
0:19:46 > 0:19:48which would keep something very, very dry.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Maybe, I don't know, cigars or tobacco.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53It's embroidered almost on this green...
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Is that green silk or green satin?
0:19:55 > 0:19:57It's...I don't know.
0:19:57 > 0:20:01Green satin and then you've got this delightful opaque white beading.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Why I like it is because it's Georgian.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- It's 199 years old and that's history.- But how much would it be?
0:20:07 > 0:20:09These were £28.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12- £25 and £45. - SELLER:- Yes, if you add the two.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15- If we have them together. - So that's £70.
0:20:15 > 0:20:16That would leave...
0:20:16 > 0:20:19- We've got two minutes to go.- £50 for Charles to spend on something else.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21If you're happy, I'm happy.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23So £25 and...
0:20:23 > 0:20:25£45.
0:20:25 > 0:20:26- SELLER:- £40.- £40.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Come on, Barbara.
0:20:28 > 0:20:29MUSIC: "Oh, Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison
0:20:29 > 0:20:32- It's me again!- Did you bring your purse with you this time?
0:20:34 > 0:20:37My lady - could you do £140?
0:20:37 > 0:20:40- I really...I really can't go there, I'm sorry.- £150?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Please?- Gun to the head!
0:20:46 > 0:20:51- OK.- Oh, you're an angel. Thank you very much.- A pleasure.- Thank you.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- £150.- £150! Not bad!
0:20:54 > 0:20:56- Yeah, have you done the deal? - Yes.- Fantastic!
0:20:56 > 0:20:59- The gentleman was very kind and... - Thank you, sir.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01- You're a very nice man. - Thank you very much.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04- Come on, let's do it! - Yeah. OK.- £65.- I love that.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08I've got reservations about whether you'd get £40 for that, but...
0:21:08 > 0:21:11I will stand by that and I'll be shot down
0:21:11 > 0:21:15on the fields of Waterloo, and I think those buttons are
0:21:15 > 0:21:18a dead cert, all in £65.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- Go!- 30 seconds to go.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- I'll shake your hand, then, thank you very much - sold.- Thank you.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26We'll take them. Thank you ever so much for that.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Well, you've had your 60 minutes, teams,
0:21:28 > 0:21:31now let's check out what the Red team bought.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38Off to a quick start, Stirling and Barbara saw these brass
0:21:38 > 0:21:43electric wall lights and were charged £65 for the set.
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Then they were drawn to this wall clock
0:21:44 > 0:21:49and didn't waste any time in securing it for £30.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52Finally, they took a fancy to this Art Deco female dancer,
0:21:52 > 0:21:55but did they pay too much at £150?
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- We tried.- There's no hanging around with you two.- No, we tried our best.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04- Straight in there.- They're what we call Speedy Gonzales.- That's right.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- She's speedy...- And you're Gonzales. - That's it.- Thank you, Stirling.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- Now, Barbara, which is your favourite piece?- I think the clock.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14- The clock? And what about you, Stirling?- The risque lady.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16And is the risque lady going to bring the biggest profit?
0:22:16 > 0:22:20- No.- What is?- The clock, I think. - The clock.- I think the lights might.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23Oh, do you? And you spent, in total, how much?
0:22:23 > 0:22:27- £245.- That is such a good amount. £55 of leftover lolly, then.- Yes.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30- Please.- Stirling's got it. - Stirling's got it. Thank you.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33With the greatest of reluctance, I notice.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35- Straight over to KB. - Lovely, thank you very much.
0:22:35 > 0:22:36What are you going to buy, darling?
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Well, do you know, Stirling and Barbara were really decisive,
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- they knew exactly what they liked and didn't like.- And quick.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44- I felt under quite a lot of pressure.- No.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Something that's going to make a profit, that's all we care about,
0:22:47 > 0:22:51- isn't it?- Absolutely.- Yeah.- Go for it, girl, you'll be fine.- Super.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought, eh?
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Emma and William almost blew the lot on these scent bottles,
0:22:58 > 0:23:02paying a whopping £180 for the pair.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Then they took a fancy to these painted dress studs.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07£25 paid for these.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13And finally, in a moment of madness, they were sold on this
0:23:13 > 0:23:16George III tin box, paying £40 for the privilege.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Just in the nick of time.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20Yeah, just in the nick of time. Good fun?
0:23:20 > 0:23:21Yes, really good fun, thank you.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23Super. Which is your favourite piece?
0:23:23 > 0:23:28Um, I really liked the last one that we bought, the green beaded box.
0:23:28 > 0:23:33- It's Georgian?- Absolutely.- Yeah. - It's kind of got a romantic...
0:23:33 > 0:23:36I get those feelings too. And what's your favourite piece?
0:23:36 > 0:23:39I think I like the scent bottles - I thought a bit of quality,
0:23:39 > 0:23:40which is what we were trying to look for.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43And are they going to bring the biggest profit, the scent bottles?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- No, I don't think so. - I think they will.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48- Do you?- I don't know, I think they might struggle,
0:23:48 > 0:23:51but the buttons that we bought will hopefully make some money
0:23:51 > 0:23:54because they were fairly cheap and there might be collectors of those.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56- OK, so what did you spend all round? - £245.- £245.
0:23:56 > 0:24:02Can I have £55 of leftover lolly, please? Thank you. £55.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05- Right, then, Charles.- Thank you. - What are you going to do with that?
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Well, we had a lot of love today with my newlyweds.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11I almost felt three's a crowd so I'm going to go off
0:24:11 > 0:24:15and find a love token or something that's got...
0:24:15 > 0:24:17- that chemistry.- What are you like, Charles?! Honestly!
0:24:17 > 0:24:21Anyway, very good luck with that, Charles. Well done, well done.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Meanwhile, while Charles searches for that love token, I'm going to
0:24:24 > 0:24:27show you something that you've never seen before
0:24:27 > 0:24:31and it takes drinking to a completely different level.

0:24:38 > 0:24:43Do you fancy a drink? Well, I feel quite drinky myself,
0:24:43 > 0:24:47and if we were sitting in a Polynesian isle...
0:24:47 > 0:24:51they would offer you a drink out of one of these jobs -
0:24:51 > 0:24:56a shallow wooden bowl known as a kava bowl.
0:24:56 > 0:25:00There'd be a bigger wooden container where some noxious
0:25:00 > 0:25:05brew of brownish fluid would have been fermenting,
0:25:05 > 0:25:08but the actual vessel that they would have used
0:25:08 > 0:25:13and would have passed from person to person to have a wee sip
0:25:13 > 0:25:16in a big village circular gathering
0:25:16 > 0:25:20would have been a little dish like this.
0:25:20 > 0:25:25Now, if I turn it over on the back, were you to rub your thumb over
0:25:25 > 0:25:31that back surface, it's made up of literally hundreds of little dings.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34That's because in that Polynesian village,
0:25:34 > 0:25:38they hadn't got a machine tool when they made this
0:25:38 > 0:25:40100 or 150 years ago,
0:25:40 > 0:25:44they simply got a shallow sharp blade
0:25:44 > 0:25:48and had exquisitely crafted...
0:25:48 > 0:25:51using little cuts, and they've made it
0:25:51 > 0:25:54so that if you rub your finger on the top and the thumb underneath,
0:25:54 > 0:25:58you can feel it's no more than a quarter of an inch thick.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01The inner surface has no dings to it at all.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04That's because they took a piece of skin off the back of a shark,
0:26:04 > 0:26:08which is rough, and they've rubbed over the inner surface to make it
0:26:08 > 0:26:09completely smooth,
0:26:09 > 0:26:14and that tapers it down to this narrow lip on the outer edge.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17That's been carved with a sharp knife
0:26:17 > 0:26:20with something that we now call entrelac,
0:26:20 > 0:26:23which is like a continuous piece of ribbon
0:26:23 > 0:26:26that runs all the way around that edge.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30But it's a complicated carving and not easy to do.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Somebody's taken literally hundreds of hours to craft that
0:26:34 > 0:26:38and then, so that you hold it sensibly from person to person
0:26:38 > 0:26:41it's got these little lug handles on the outside,
0:26:41 > 0:26:46and if you look at each of those, that's like a native totem pole.
0:26:46 > 0:26:51It's sadly got a little damage now on the outer outer-edge, but
0:26:51 > 0:26:56it's only a minor split, but you can see the exquisite carving inside.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00There was considerable craft expended in making these bowls
0:27:00 > 0:27:05because they were so important in terms of village culture.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09This is the moment when you're entertaining the rellies.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11What's it worth?
0:27:11 > 0:27:15Well, you could buy it off this dealer round the corner for £20.
0:27:15 > 0:27:19The trick is to identify the Polynesian island.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21Is it Fiji?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23Might it be Hawaii?
0:27:23 > 0:27:26If it's Tahitian, it could be worth
0:27:26 > 0:27:28£500.
0:27:28 > 0:27:29Lovely, isn't it?
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Cheers!
0:27:31 > 0:27:34MUSIC: "Moves Like Jagger" by Maroon 5 ft Christina Aguilera
0:27:41 > 0:27:44Well, it's cracking to be in Wisborough Green at
0:27:44 > 0:27:48Bellmans saleroom with Jonathan Pratt, JP.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52Now, Barbara and Stirling have gone with these wall lights,
0:27:52 > 0:27:54which I think have been ripped out of a pub, haven't they?
0:27:54 > 0:27:56I really don't like them.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59I don't like this sort of... This Victorian-type shade has
0:27:59 > 0:28:00had its day, hasn't it?
0:28:00 > 0:28:03Well, it's a reproduction and it's a bad reproduction,
0:28:03 > 0:28:05and they paid £65 for this. There are four of them.
0:28:05 > 0:28:09We are only seeing one of the four here, so how much?
0:28:09 > 0:28:10Optimistically, £20 to £30.
0:28:10 > 0:28:13Well, there you go, and that just about says it all,
0:28:13 > 0:28:15so bad luck on them, so they're going to have to work hard
0:28:15 > 0:28:17with their wee pottery wall clock.
0:28:17 > 0:28:19I like it, I think it's quite a fun thing
0:28:19 > 0:28:22and I think this sort of kitchenalia, if you would like
0:28:22 > 0:28:24to call it that, but you could hang it anywhere you like
0:28:24 > 0:28:26in the house, if you wanted to.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29- Hmm.- But it's quite fashionable now. Small, a bit of style.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33- And perfectly formed.- I think that'll do rather well.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35£25 to £35 would be...
0:28:35 > 0:28:39OK, Kate paid £30 for that, and I can see it making £50 or £60.
0:28:39 > 0:28:40It could possibly.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44And now, what about this very stylish, rather slinky
0:28:44 > 0:28:46and attractive dancer?
0:28:46 > 0:28:49Yeah, um, this sort of Deco feel about her.
0:28:49 > 0:28:54Um, it is German porcelain, it's, uh, the factory is Katzehutte.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58- What's that mean?- Well, their mark is a little cat in a house.
0:28:58 > 0:29:00- In a hut?- Yes, so it's a "cat hutte".- Oh, lovely.
0:29:00 > 0:29:02I think £70 to £100 would be...
0:29:02 > 0:29:05- Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear. They paid £150.- Oh!
0:29:05 > 0:29:07They were really taken with her.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10That could be exactly double what she's worth,
0:29:10 > 0:29:13which could be another big problem following on from the wall lights.
0:29:13 > 0:29:15On that basis, they're going to need their bonus buy,
0:29:15 > 0:29:18so let's go and have a look at it.
0:29:18 > 0:29:22Barbara, Stirling, you gave Kate £55. Kate, what did you do with it?
0:29:22 > 0:29:25Well, I did feel under quite a lot of pressure for you two
0:29:25 > 0:29:27- and I've done something that I rarely do.- Ah.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32I've bought something from an antique sale which isn't antique.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35- Ooh!- Wow.- I was very much thinking of the lady,
0:29:35 > 0:29:39- Stirling, I'm afraid, as you can see.- Wow.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41And we have two evening bags.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45Um, this one, Barbara, which I thought was just your colour...
0:29:45 > 0:29:48- has a top high-street brand name on the top.- Right.
0:29:48 > 0:29:54It's in beautiful condition, plush pink satin, beautiful inside,
0:29:54 > 0:29:57and, of course, we have this one as well, which is very much
0:29:57 > 0:30:01in the '50s style. Lovely beaded bag, lovely interior.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05- How much did you pay for them, Kate? - I paid... How much do you think?
0:30:05 > 0:30:06BARBARA INHALES
0:30:06 > 0:30:09- How much would YOU pay, Barbara? - How much would I pay?
0:30:09 > 0:30:12- £60? £65?- This is looking good!
0:30:12 > 0:30:16- I paid £10 for the two.- Wow! Can I look, Kate?- £10?
0:30:16 > 0:30:18- £10. - How much are they going to make?
0:30:18 > 0:30:22Well, I would hope somebody might pay perhaps certainly between £20
0:30:22 > 0:30:26and £30, maybe a little bit more if they really like the style of them.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28I like anything like this, I must be honest.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30- I thought you might. - Yes, I do.- Get away!
0:30:30 > 0:30:32So you didn't think about me at all?
0:30:32 > 0:30:35I'm really sorry, but you had a good innings, didn't you?
0:30:35 > 0:30:37- You chose quite a few things you liked.- Yes, I did.
0:30:37 > 0:30:39Anyway, for the viewers at home,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Kate's old bags.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46- OK, JP, there's something for you - look.- Oh, thank you.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50Um, do you rate this sort of quite modern, collectable
0:30:50 > 0:30:52ladies' accessory job?
0:30:52 > 0:30:55Fashion can sell, but you've got to have the right names to go with it.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58- And these don't have them. - They don't have them, no.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01- £20 to £30, I'd say. - £20 to £30 for the two, very good.
0:31:01 > 0:31:04Well, that's a cheap night out, isn't it? £10 paid by Kate Bliss.
0:31:04 > 0:31:08Now, that's it for the Reds. Moving on to the Blues.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11What a mixture here! Look, the silver and cut-glass bottles.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14There's a lot of workmanship involved in them,
0:31:14 > 0:31:16they're typically late 1930s, 20th century.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19- They would have been a part of a big set, yes?- I suppose...
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- With mirrors and brushes.- You could probably match it, still, yourself.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25- If you've got a few pieces at home you could...- Build up a group.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28- Build up a group, yeah.- It should be worth a lot of money, then.
0:31:28 > 0:31:33- I rate them at about £40 each, so that's £80 to £120.- Is that all?
0:31:33 > 0:31:35No, they paid £180, so they paid...
0:31:35 > 0:31:37- That's a lot of money, though, I think that is a lot of money.- OK.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40What about the six so-called
0:31:40 > 0:31:43- Essex crystal-type buttons?- Uh...
0:31:43 > 0:31:46Yeah, I mean, they're copying that reversed crystalline intaglio where
0:31:46 > 0:31:48they eat away at the back and painted with normally dogs' heads
0:31:48 > 0:31:52- and that sort of thing.- They're not gold? They're just gold-plated.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55It's base metal, it's glass and they are painted on the inside,
0:31:55 > 0:31:58- but quality is quite apparent. - Cos people like dogs, don't they?
0:31:58 > 0:32:01- Well, they like animals.- Of course. - So, lovely, how much?
0:32:01 > 0:32:04- £20 or £30 for these. - OK, £25 paid. Super.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06Now, we've got this very rare
0:32:06 > 0:32:11- and, I think, rather charming tin embroider-cased box.- Yeah.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13I'm not quite sure what it would have held. Pencils?
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Whatever you want to, that's about three inches high.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18A load of work has gone into making that - I mean,
0:32:18 > 0:32:20they're very fine beads, it's hours upon hours,
0:32:20 > 0:32:23but everyone did this stuff in the 19th century and the 18th century
0:32:23 > 0:32:28because they didn't have the benefit of TV and radio to sort of...
0:32:28 > 0:32:30Well, they had leisure, didn't they? Exactly right.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33They didn't have Bargain Hunt to watch. And it's dated, isn't it?
0:32:33 > 0:32:37- So, you can tell the period spot on, that's perfect.- Yeah, absolutely.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40- How much would you put on it?- £40 to £60.- Great, they only paid £40.
0:32:40 > 0:32:45That is the sole ray of sunshine that might shine upon this team
0:32:45 > 0:32:47if they're lucky. They're going to need their bonus buy,
0:32:47 > 0:32:49so let's go and have a look at it.
0:32:49 > 0:32:52Right, sweet William and Emma.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54HE LAUGHS
0:32:54 > 0:32:57£245 you spent. £55 went to Charles Hanson.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59Charles, what did you spend it on?
0:32:59 > 0:33:02Tim, as if William was going to buy Emma a love token to really
0:33:02 > 0:33:05impress her, I'll give him the box and say,
0:33:05 > 0:33:07- "William, open it for your new bride."- Oh.
0:33:07 > 0:33:11- And show your lady and watch her face be full of delight.- Light up.
0:33:13 > 0:33:17- What is that?- Do you like it? - I don't know what it is!
0:33:17 > 0:33:20Let me explain, it's a solid silver bar brooch,
0:33:20 > 0:33:25modelled and cast in the form of a Celtic cloak pin.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29It's hallmarked for Chester, 1935, and it's got great style.
0:33:29 > 0:33:31Hasn't it, William?
0:33:31 > 0:33:33- I actually think it looks all right. Yeah.- You're a good man.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35I thought it looked like a sword.
0:33:35 > 0:33:38You thought it looked like a little kind of daggery type job?
0:33:38 > 0:33:40- Yes.- The all-important question, Charles,
0:33:40 > 0:33:41how much did you spend on it?
0:33:41 > 0:33:45- £25.- Oh, well.- That's pretty good.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48I would really hope that this lot at auction will appeal to a lady
0:33:48 > 0:33:52who will happily pay between £40 and £60, at least.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54- Well, that's a prediction, isn't it? - Yeah.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56I can tell you are clearly impressed, Emma.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58- You really like this thing, don't you?- I really love it.
0:33:58 > 0:34:02- You're bonding up with it.- Yeah, bonding.- It's colourful, like you.
0:34:03 > 0:34:07And you don't pick now, you pick later if you need to, but right now
0:34:07 > 0:34:10for the audience at home, let's find out what our auctioneer
0:34:10 > 0:34:12thinks about Charles' little pin.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17- There you go. That's rather sweet, isn't it?- Yeah, I quite like this.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19It's got some craftsmanship to it.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22I suppose it would have been a kilt pin or something, perhaps.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25- Could you use it as a tie pin, do you think?- Maybe you could.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27I mean, for me it's not so much brooch, it screams something...
0:34:27 > 0:34:30But if you were wearing sort of tweed, a scarf or something,
0:34:30 > 0:34:31it might be more...
0:34:31 > 0:34:34I don't know, well, it could be for men or women anyway,
0:34:34 > 0:34:36- that's the point. - It's hallmarked 1935 Chester.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40It's by Shipton & Co, and Shipton & Co did produce arts and crafts
0:34:40 > 0:34:42small items of this nature at that date,
0:34:42 > 0:34:44so it's absolutely right for what it should be.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48- And the Celtic designs are enduring, aren't they?- Yeah.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51And people love them still. OK, so how much for that little item?
0:34:51 > 0:34:54- £20 to £40.- OK, £25 paid by Charles.
0:34:54 > 0:34:58I bet he'll do well on that so let's hope they go with the bonus buy.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Well, we'll find out in a minute, won't we?
0:35:00 > 0:35:01- In a minute?- In a minute.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06£25 by the pillar. £30...
0:35:08 > 0:35:12Barbara and Stirling, this is your exciting moment. We're on the edge!
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Look at this room stuffed up with folk. It's good, isn't it?
0:35:16 > 0:35:18- Yeah, absolutely fantastic. - The wall lights -
0:35:18 > 0:35:20I personally think these have been stripped
0:35:20 > 0:35:23out of a public house not very long ago because they're modern,
0:35:23 > 0:35:28and those acid-etched shades - no, not a great deal of age.
0:35:28 > 0:35:30Anyway, you paid £65, the auctioneer doesn't like them.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32He's put £20 to £30 on them.
0:35:32 > 0:35:37- Fantastic!- Harsh!- That's a good start.- Who knows with any of this?
0:35:37 > 0:35:40First up, then, are your lacquered brass wall fittings
0:35:40 > 0:35:42and shades, and here they come.
0:35:42 > 0:35:46I've got 2194, a set of four lacquered brass wall lights
0:35:46 > 0:35:48with pink tinted shades. Start me at £40 for these.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51£40 is bid, thank you, at £40. Where's the £5 now?
0:35:51 > 0:35:56£40 I have, looking for £45. Straight in at £40. £45 I'll take.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58- Come on.- Oh, no.
0:35:58 > 0:36:01At £40, that's it at £40. Are you all done at £40?
0:36:01 > 0:36:06This is the maiden bid of £40. Fair warning, all done at £40.
0:36:06 > 0:36:08Sorry about that.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10You're minus £25, but it's a classic. He put his hand up quick,
0:36:10 > 0:36:13it cost him £40 and that was it. Now, here we go.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16- It's a jolly nice thing, this. - I love it, yeah.
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Rather handsome. I like this, actually.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21I can start straight in at £20. Who's going to go five?
0:36:21 > 0:36:24- £25 and I'm out, now at £25. Where's 30?- Go on!
0:36:24 > 0:36:28- £25 here doesn't seem like a lot. - That's nothing.
0:36:28 > 0:36:29It's a nice object, this.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32£25 by the pillar I shall sell. £30 seated.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34- £35 standing. - Thank you, you're in profit.
0:36:34 > 0:36:35Listen to your daughter.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37Come on!
0:36:37 > 0:36:4140, she really wants it, 40. Any more at £40? It's theirs at 40.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44All done, fair warning. £40 and selling.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47That's reduced your losses to minus 15. Now, here we go.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50- Here comes the Katzehutte.- We've got an Art Deco female dancer...
0:36:50 > 0:36:53- Fingers crossed. - German, in her orange skirt and hat.
0:36:53 > 0:36:58- And I've bids to start me at £65, straight in at £65.- There you go.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Looking for 70 now, who's going to go 70?
0:37:00 > 0:37:0470 internet, 75 with me, are you going to go one more?
0:37:04 > 0:37:06- Oh, come on! - £75 with me on the book.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10Anyone else in the room want to join in? £75 with me on the book at £75.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13Fair warning, internet. £75.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44Overall, you're minus £45,

0:41:34 > 0:41:36MUSIC: "Sexy And I Know It" by LMFAO
0:41:41 > 0:41:44Cor, have you ever seen such happy-looking teams?
0:41:44 > 0:41:47And so colourful too.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51Anyway, sadly, the colour today of your money
0:41:51 > 0:41:55is universally red because nobody has made any profits.
0:41:55 > 0:41:56THEY ALL GROAN
0:41:56 > 0:42:00And the team that has made the largest loss just happens to be
0:42:00 > 0:42:02the Reds.
0:42:02 > 0:42:06- So bad luck, Reds. Minus £82 is not a good number for you.- No.
0:42:06 > 0:42:07No, not at all.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10You got that lovely £10 profit on your kitchen clock,
0:42:10 > 0:42:14- but that, apart from the old bags at the end from Kate...- Yes.
0:42:14 > 0:42:16..were it!
0:42:16 > 0:42:18It wasn't your day today in the marketplace.

0:42:20 > 0:42:24And thank you for being so entertaining and lovely for us.
0:42:24 > 0:42:25- Thank you.- We try our best.
0:42:25 > 0:42:28Well, there we go, but the victors today - the Blues.
0:42:28 > 0:42:33Minus £35 is the amount you've lost to win today.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36- Thank you very much. - Which is pretty average.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38Anyway, £25 profit on those
0:42:38 > 0:42:41little old dress stud things was a very nice number.
0:42:41 > 0:42:45A washed face, a nice profit for the bonus buy from Charles -
0:42:45 > 0:42:47thank you, Charles, for that. £10 for that.
0:42:47 > 0:42:51But, anyway, it was that hit on the spherical scent bottles that
0:42:51 > 0:42:54did it, wasn't it? Minus £35, but victors to the Blues.
