0:00:02 > 0:00:04MUSIC: "Anarchy in the UK" by The Sex Pistols
0:00:04 > 0:00:08Notorious punk rock group The Sex Pistols
0:00:08 > 0:00:11were once banned from performing in Derby
0:00:11 > 0:00:14because of their antisocial behaviour.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17But we know how we'll get our kicks, don't we?
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Ha-ha! Let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:43 > 0:00:46This is the Derby Roundhouse,
0:00:46 > 0:00:51still standing - and performing a useful function after 170 years.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53Quite some service, hey?
0:00:53 > 0:00:56The big question is, are our teams going to be fully functioning
0:00:56 > 0:00:59after only one hour's shopping?
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Time will tell.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Here's a quick glimpse as to what's coming up.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Today the Reds take a journey down the Yellow Brick Road.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11# He's a wonderful wizard of Oz! #
0:01:12 > 0:01:15And for the Blues it's all about girl power.
0:01:15 > 0:01:20Suffragette piece of jewellery. You'd wear it as a code to say, "I'm a supporter of..."
0:01:20 > 0:01:22You're talking our language.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24But before they start shopping, let's meet them.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29For the Reds we've got Christine and Jane.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33And for the Blues we've got Helen and Lynne. Hello, everyone!
0:01:33 > 0:01:36- ALL:- Hello! - Hello. How are you?
0:01:36 > 0:01:41Anyway, now, Christine, you met when you were doing a rather unusual dance, I believe?
0:01:41 > 0:01:46- We certainly did, yes. We do belly dancing.- You met at belly dance class?
0:01:46 > 0:01:50Yes, it really keeps you active, you know, and fit, and it's fun.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- We have great fun.- Now how did you start belly dancing?
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Well, I used to be very fit and active, and then I got ME
0:01:57 > 0:02:01which made me very, very poorly for a long, long time.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05I used to event horses but I couldn't event horses anymore
0:02:05 > 0:02:10because of the energy that I needed and I was too poorly to do it.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13And I heard about this belly dance class,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16and I thought, "I'm going to have a go"
0:02:16 > 0:02:18And I've never looked back since.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21I feel like it's given me back my life, to be honest.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Jane, it's not just belly dancing that is a connection between you two.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Chris is beauty therapist and so am I,
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- so we have a lot in common, don't we?- We do.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- We love belly dancing, and the profession as well, beauty therapy. - Yes.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38I'm hoping to set up my own room now that my daughter's getting married.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42- I see. Now she's leaving, you're going to do it at home.- Yes.- Right.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- So, you have the same interests.- Yes. - Do you know what you're up to?
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- I'm looking for Art Deco.- And making a profit, hopefully.- Hopefully.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- Are you going to spend all your cash? - We'll see.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56She's quite coy, isn't she? Anyway, lovely to chat to you.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01- Helen, we have met before, haven't we?- We have, when you came to Wightwick Manor in Wolverhampton.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05- Oh, yes. Do you work there?- I do, I'm the house steward. I look after the house
0:03:05 > 0:03:08and its collection, and the lovely volunteers as well.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13It is a house particularly rich in Arts and Crafts objects, isn't it?
0:03:13 > 0:03:17It is, it's full of wonderful William Morris interiors, furnishings, fixtures,
0:03:17 > 0:03:23- and wonderful pre-Raphaelite paintings.- And you've achieved a dream, therefore, in getting there?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25I have, it's a dream job for me.
0:03:25 > 0:03:31I did, particularly, Victorian History at university.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36And I've always loved Arts and Crafts architecture, so Wightwick Manor is the perfect job.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Lynne, what's your role in the setup at Wightwick?
0:03:39 > 0:03:43I have a fabulous title, it's Learning and Visitor Experience Coordinator.
0:03:43 > 0:03:48- Gosh, that's a National Trust title if ever I heard one.- Yes, it's a big batch, yes.
0:03:49 > 0:03:55- What does it mean?- Well, the learning side is that I look after anybody who comes on an educational visit.
0:03:55 > 0:03:59That can be as young as five years old right up to university students.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- Apparently you enjoy a good old-fashioned letter?- I do.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06I spend so much of my time tied to a computer on email.
0:04:06 > 0:04:10It's nice to have something personal. So I've got pen friends all around the world,
0:04:10 > 0:04:14and we exchange letters and keep up with each other's news.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18With all the knowledge you've gleaned from being in such a wonderful house,
0:04:18 > 0:04:23are you going to go with Arts and Crafts objects when you go shopping on Bargain Hunt today?
0:04:23 > 0:04:28It'd be nice to think an undiscovered pre-Raphaelite masterpiece is out there,
0:04:28 > 0:04:32- but we'll have to see.- You'll be the right people to spot it if there is.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Anyway, now, the money moment. Here we go, look, £300 apiece.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- Thank you.- £300. You know the rules.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Your experts await, and off you go, and very, very, very good luck.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44I think I might try a bit of this belly dancing.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Going for glory with the Reds, we have the reputable Charlie Ross.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55And keeping his googly eyes out for the Blues,
0:04:55 > 0:04:57we have the very vigilant Thomas Plant.
0:04:58 > 0:05:04Now, we really couldn't have a pair of belly dancers on the show and not see them dance, could we?
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Ah! No, girls.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17That's better. Let's go shopping.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22I think that's a Bargain Hunt first, and what a treat.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24But now, let's get back down to business.
0:05:25 > 0:05:31I hear that you are absolute passionate experts
0:05:31 > 0:05:34on William Morris Arts and Crafts, is that right?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- Complete anoraks. - Anoraks?
0:05:36 > 0:05:42I like something with fine detailing, something pretty where a lot of craftsmanship's gone into it.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- We won't find a rare William Morris, but let's go.- Right.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50I love the style of the Art Deco, the geometrical shapes and the slim lines, so Art Deco for me.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Let's go and find some.
0:05:53 > 0:05:57You just never know what you're going to turn up at an antiques fair.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59But, you're on the clock so best get busy.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Come on, let's have a look, let's get down into it.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07Let's get sort of... Well, this is George Jones.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12He was a Staffordshire potter in the Aesthetic taste,
0:06:12 > 0:06:14as you can see that is. You know,
0:06:14 > 0:06:18you've got the asymmetrical design of the Aesthetic taste here,
0:06:19 > 0:06:22with the blue and white and the heightened gilt.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Just checking for restoration.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Um...
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Yep, that's fine.
0:06:31 > 0:06:34You've got two different prices. You've got 70, we've got 65.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- You've got two different prices on it.- Have I?
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Yeah, you've got one at 70 and one at 65.
0:06:41 > 0:06:46- I must have been having a senior moment.- Surely not, not for you.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Charm will get you everywhere, Thomas.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52- So what kind of price could you do? - Well, make me an offer.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55I mean, I think, at auction, that's gonna be... 30 to 50 pounds.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59At auction. At a, sort of, price.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02So I would like to offer you that sort of bottom estimate.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- So...?- 30.- You're offering me 30.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09- Yeah, what can you...?- I suppose I could do that.- Can you?- Yes.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Do we want to go for it?- A definite maybe.- A definite maybe?
0:07:12 > 0:07:16You'll stick with that. All right, then. Let's carry on. Do you mind?
0:07:16 > 0:07:20You mean you managed to knock the vase down to less than half price
0:07:20 > 0:07:22and now you walk away? Well, I give up.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26- I quite like these spoons, actually. - Oh, yes, I like those.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29They're Royal Worcester. £16.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Yes.- I think...
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- Let's try and buy some antiques. Yes.- OK.- You know, those are lovely,
0:07:36 > 0:07:40- but who is going to go to an auction room and buy those?- No.- No.
0:07:40 > 0:07:46- You've got to remember, most people that are attending the auction rooms are looking for antiques.- Yes.
0:07:46 > 0:07:51They're looking for things from the Victorian and Georgian era. They're also looking Art Deco.
0:07:51 > 0:07:56- Set your sights towards a bit of Art Deco.- Yes.- And perhaps a bit of ornate Victoriana,
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- or going to the Georgian period if you want to.- Yes.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Good advice, Charles, so let's hope they listen to it.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09OK, we're ten minutes in, so now's a good time to buy, don't you think?
0:08:09 > 0:08:14- Look at that.- That's gorgeous. - That is Japanese Arita ware.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16HOLLOW SOUND Music to me ears.
0:08:16 > 0:08:21Big plant pot. And it's 160, it's 1900.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23It's definitely Japanese export ware.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26So look at that, I love the faceting of the actual body itself,
0:08:26 > 0:08:29- don't you?- It is, it's gorgeous.
0:08:29 > 0:08:34While Lynne and Helen go a bit potty, I wonder if our Reds have sniffed anything out yet?
0:08:34 > 0:08:38- That's a lovely perfume...- Perfume bottles are always good sellers.
0:08:38 > 0:08:43You have to check with the perfume bottle that the stopper belongs to the bottle.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45- OK, yeah.- Absolutely vital.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49Invariably they get lost or broken, and they match them up and they don't quite fit.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53We take this one, and look, point in question.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Harry wobblers. It's a bit like your bellies, girls.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58THEY LAUGH
0:08:58 > 0:09:02- Just goes a bit...- It's a bit like yours.- Like mine? How dare you.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06Charles, you've got them jiggling again. Sorry, I mean giggling again.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Now come on, let's get back to the job in hand.
0:09:10 > 0:09:15- So there's that, you can think about that.- That's lovely. Oh, I like that bit of green.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- That is somewhat unusual. I think it's Korean.- It is.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22It's provincial. Extremely heavy, heavily potted.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26So what sort of age would we be looking at with that?
0:09:26 > 0:09:30- It's a difficult one to date. In my opinion, early 19th century.- This...
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- It could be 18th.- I'll let you do the handling, dear.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- You're used to handling objects. - It's got a strolling dragon.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39- Careful. It's got the dragon.- It is heavy, isn't it?
0:09:39 > 0:09:44Watch the subtleness of the dragon, and it's chasing this pearl here,
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- this flaming pearl.- It's beautiful, isn't it?- Or the eternal pearl.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51You see where the glaze hasn't taken?
0:09:51 > 0:09:54That's not counted as damage, it's clearly where the glaze -
0:09:54 > 0:10:00- It could be quite a provincial piece, couldn't it?- It is.- The bold colours of that.- It's gorgeous.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04- And the Chinese-like green.- Mmm. - Apple green in particular.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Greeny yellowy fits in with the Aesthetic movement.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- I prefer that.- Yes.- But I'm open to discussion.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Yeah, OK, well, what can that one be?
0:10:14 > 0:10:17- That one could be 90.- Ooh.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Could it be 70?
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- You're optimistic, aren't you?- I'm just trying.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27- Some would say barefaced cheek, but...- I'm not barefaced, it's just an offer.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- 80.- Then it's a risk cos it's...
0:10:30 > 0:10:33I like the dragon, and the dragon at the moment and the pearl
0:10:33 > 0:10:38is something the Oriental buyers are after at the moment.
0:10:38 > 0:10:43The Japanese ware is a little bit more suppressed in the market
0:10:43 > 0:10:48- because they're going through pretty horrible times.- Times.- You know? - I think this, Lynne...
0:10:48 > 0:10:54- Well, you've got a good feel for it, so...- Yeah, it's good piece. Yes.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- You want to buy it?- Yes.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Cor! At £80, you Blues are taking a chance on that, but well done!
0:11:00 > 0:11:04You're up and running now, which is more than can be said for the Reds.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Blimey O'Riley, this is not easy.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11"I like this, I like that. I love this." "Do you want to buy it?" "No. No."
0:11:12 > 0:11:14"Love this!" "Do you want to buy it?" "No!"
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- So what would that be used for, then?- A snuff box.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Obviously a table snuff box as opposed to one
0:11:23 > 0:11:25you put in your pocket.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28I think it's probably got a more feminine feel to it.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Whilst you could use it as a table snuff,
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- I would think it would be lovely with hairpins in.- Or tiny earrings.
0:11:36 > 0:11:40- Tiny earrings, all sorts of jewellery. There we go.- 195.- Yeah.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44- Nice.- Birmingham, 1900. Made in Birmingham.
0:11:45 > 0:11:51- I think that, at auction, would be estimated at £100 to £150.- Do you?
0:11:51 > 0:11:56- Does £110 show you any sort of profit?- Barely, but...- Barely?
0:11:56 > 0:12:00- If 110 shows any sort of profit... - What if I said to you 115?- 115?
0:12:00 > 0:12:04I really can't believe that you... you shouldn't buy it.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08I can't guarantee you a profit, nobody can in this business.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10I think it's a deal. Our first item.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- The thing we like is that you love it.- I do love it.- I like it.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19- With a passion.- It's beautiful. - That's good. Gary, are you sure? - Yes, go on.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Deal done, Reds. And both teams have bagged an item.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27We're at the halfway mark, which is a good time to test our Blues' knowledge.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33- What do you think of that piece there? The colours on that?- That's beautiful.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36You've got the mauve, the white and the green.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- Aren't those suffrage colours?- They are the colours.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43A suffragette piece of jewellery. So a code you'd wear. You'd wear it as a code to say,
0:12:43 > 0:12:49- "I'm a supporter of..."- You're definitely talking our language, so we need to have a look at that.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53Now, if I could just get the Reds to take their bargain hunting seriously.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58# If ever, oh ever a wiz there was... #
0:12:58 > 0:13:02Well, Charles you've certainly got courage, that's all I can say.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05You deserve a medal. Or at least a broach.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Do you know what they meant? You must've known what the colours mean?
0:13:09 > 0:13:13- I don't know.- White for...- Purity. - Purity.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17Green for hope,
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- mauve for dignity.- Dignity.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24What you have here, these are paste stones, they're coloured.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27- The pearls are real? - The pearls are real.
0:13:27 > 0:13:32And normally the green would have been a demantoid garnet,
0:13:32 > 0:13:36which is a very, very green garnet, which has a rich colour to it.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38And the mauve is always an amethyst.
0:13:38 > 0:13:43It's set in silver, and it's period, obviously, to the movement.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46I think it's wonderful.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49So it was only ever a broach, it was never set as a pendant?
0:13:49 > 0:13:52No, only a broach to wear on the lapel.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57- What was on that again?- I could do that for 120.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- Possibility of a little bit more off?- 110 for the female cause.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03And that is silver?
0:14:03 > 0:14:07Silver, paste stones with pearls, what do you want to do?
0:14:09 > 0:14:14- Because it's a suffragette piece. - Yes.- So there's always more value in that.- Always more value.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17- They do sell.- They do sell.- I love that.- I say yes.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20I think it's fabulous. I would wear that, every day of my life.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24- We're going do it?- Definitely. Definitely.- I thought you'd like it.
0:14:26 > 0:14:29A true badge of honour. There's no keeping those two down.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36Now, let's see who's holding the purse strings on the Red team.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Oh, it's quite fun. I mean, it's not gold obviously,
0:14:41 > 0:14:45- or silver or whatever.- It wouldn't go for anything, would it, much?
0:14:45 > 0:14:49- Well...- But it's £79. What would you accept?- 50.- 50?
0:14:49 > 0:14:54You'd have to buy it for less than that because it's got a hole in it and your money will fall out.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57- Can you see?- Oh, yeah.- No. 30?
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- If he would sell it to you for 30 quid, I would buy it.- 30?- 35.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03No, it's got a hole, hasn't it?
0:15:04 > 0:15:09- It's got a hole. It's damaged, isn't it?- Let's have another think. Right.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11- Let's move on.- OK.- We'll remember it.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Don't forget that. Tony says you can have that for 35 quid.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- It's only £35, Christine.- It's got a hole.- It's 30.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Uh-oh. Do I detect disagreement in the ranks?
0:15:21 > 0:15:26- It is growing on me, I have to say. - We've got ten minutes left.- Yes.
0:15:26 > 0:15:31You don't have to buy it now, but my suggestion is that when you're walking around there,
0:15:31 > 0:15:34I will keep on my toes
0:15:34 > 0:15:37- to sprint here and buy that off Tony.- OK, right.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39If you want me to.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Well recovered, Charles, but remember,
0:15:41 > 0:15:43you still need to find two items.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51Now, Helen and Lynne, you're near the end of the journey.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54What final item are you planning to take with you?
0:15:54 > 0:15:56That's very nice. That's a nice piece, isn't it?
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- What do you think about that? - I think that's lovely.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06- A travelling case.- Very unusual. - This is something you would,
0:16:06 > 0:16:11- travelling around the world, you wouldn't trust somebody's other cutlery.- No.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- Is that gold-plated? - Well, probably, yeah.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18- I think that's quite fun, isn't it? - That's lovely.- What can that be?
0:16:20 > 0:16:2258.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- I could do 50 on it.- Think that's low enough?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- Can do 40.- I can do 45.
0:16:32 > 0:16:35It's like watching tennis, this.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37- Go on, I think it's quite good, isn't it?- Yes.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41I do collect travel. So that would fit in with things I like, so...
0:16:41 > 0:16:47- So, are we gonna buy it?- Definitely. You happy with that?- Very happy.- Are you sure?- Yes.- You spotted it.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- Thank you very much.- Thank you, Thomas.- Thank you.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Ah! Three items done, and we've got time to spare.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Not much time, Thomas.
0:16:56 > 0:17:01We're in the final five minutes, and these Reds can't seem to see the wood for the trees.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03- Girls, do you like those?- Yes, I do.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06They're silver, but I don't know where they were made.
0:17:06 > 0:17:11- If they were Russian they'd be fab news. Enamel decoration around here. - Mmm.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13They've obviously got some age.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16I should think they're 1880, 1890, probably.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18What they used for, what's it used for?
0:17:18 > 0:17:22They could be sort of pen trays, caviar dishes, or sort of like...
0:17:23 > 0:17:25- Dishes, something like that. - How much are they?
0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Silver and...- They're 120 the pair.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Right, 120 the pair.- I can actually move on those.
0:17:31 > 0:17:36- Would it be cheeky to say 80?- I'd do 90.- 90? That's the very best?- Yes.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40- Right, girls, we got very few minutes left.- Mm-hm, yes.
0:17:40 > 0:17:45You have got a pair of very attractive enamel and silver dishes.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Whence they come we do not know.
0:17:49 > 0:17:54- Er, we have also got the little... - Handbag.- Handbaggy job.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56- The purse.- Purse.- Yeah.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58- And you need to buy two more items. - Mm.
0:17:58 > 0:18:03The purse did grow on me, but it's the damage that I didn't like on it.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Charlie, you have the patience of a saint. Saint Carlos.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- Yes, that's true, yes.- I think we should go for those.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14So what about that and the purse, then?
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- I don't think we've got enough.- Have we not got enough for that?
0:18:17 > 0:18:21Yeah! Oh, yes, you could buy those for 90,
0:18:21 > 0:18:25- you could buy the purse for 30, that's 120.- Mm-hm.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28We've spent 115, that's 235,
0:18:28 > 0:18:32- gives me £65-worth of pure heaven. - OK, shall we do that?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34- I think we will do that.- Yes.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- Happy?- It's a deal.- This is a Ross Campbell, don't shoot me.- Very happy.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42You can't relax yet. You still need to seal the deal on that purse.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45I hope it hasn't been sold, for your sake.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47- The purse is still there.- That's lucky.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Time's up. Let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Jane and Christine were dazzled by
0:18:56 > 0:18:59this Victorian silver dressing table box,
0:18:59 > 0:19:02and splashed out £115 to get it.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Then they took a fancy to the pair of enamel and silver dishes,
0:19:07 > 0:19:09and hammered down the price to £90.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14Finally they snapped up the Art Deco metal purse for £30.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21- You must be some girls to wear out Charlie, I have to say.- Absolutely.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Which is your favourite piece? - The silver jewellery case.
0:19:24 > 0:19:28- Absolutely beautiful.- Lovely. And will that bring the biggest profit?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31I think it will. I think it will, yes.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35- What did you spend all round?- 235. - £235.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39- I'd like £65 leftover lolly, please. How lovely is that?- There we go.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41So, Charlie, what are you going to buy, old boy?
0:19:41 > 0:19:43I haven't got a clue, I'm so exhausted.
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- I need half an hour to sit down and then I'll work it out.- Fine.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51On that happy note, why don't we shove off and see what the Blue team bought, eh?
0:19:51 > 0:19:55The Blues loved the boldness of this green-glazed vase,
0:19:55 > 0:19:57and took a chance on it, at £80.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01The silver suffragette broach had their full support,
0:20:01 > 0:20:04and they paid £110 for the cause.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07They finished their bargain hunting
0:20:07 > 0:20:12with this travelling knife and fork set, which set them back £45.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14- Did you enjoy it?- Fabulous.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18- And how much did you spend all round? - 235.- 235.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22- I would like £65 of leftover lolly, please.- It just so happens.
0:20:22 > 0:20:28You just happen to have it. You're so cute. There's the 65. And, Tom, what are you going to do with that, boy?
0:20:28 > 0:20:33I'm going to buy something decorative and something which has influenced,
0:20:33 > 0:20:36- influenced the Aesthetic period. - Ooh.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39That'll be popular. Well done, Tom. Good luck with that.
0:20:39 > 0:20:45Meanwhile, why don't we go and have a look at a little something that I found a little earlier?
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Here's a neat bit of leather work, look.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59Look at that. A beautifully made attache case.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02It's secured by an ingenious harsp,
0:21:02 > 0:21:05which is opened, very unusually,
0:21:05 > 0:21:08by depressing the little bar in the middle of the lock.
0:21:08 > 0:21:14That undoes the flap, and hey presto, it opens out like a concertina.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19You've got, in the middle, a travelling ink pot
0:21:19 > 0:21:21that's got a sprung top to it,
0:21:21 > 0:21:24so that when the ink's in it and you're on the move
0:21:24 > 0:21:28and it's clicked shut, the ink won't come out.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30You've got a dip pen.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33You've got two pouches on either side,
0:21:33 > 0:21:35and in the middle there's a compartment,
0:21:35 > 0:21:38open that up, and it's got some steel nibs, look.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41But what might it have been used for?
0:21:41 > 0:21:46Well, it would've been taken by a general practitioner in the 1920s
0:21:46 > 0:21:50or 1930s, around doing his house calls,
0:21:50 > 0:21:55and he kept in those two pouches his prescription pads.
0:21:55 > 0:21:59And because he couldn't write the prescriptions out in pencil,
0:21:59 > 0:22:02in case anybody altered them, he had to do them in ink,
0:22:02 > 0:22:04hence the travelling sprung inkwell.
0:22:04 > 0:22:09As a medical collectable it's desirable.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11It would cost you here today in Derby £40.
0:22:11 > 0:22:16But, in a medical sale, I reckon it could bring you the top end of £150.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19But the story doesn't finish there,
0:22:19 > 0:22:24because here's another little leather circular box that I've found.
0:22:24 > 0:22:29If I open it up it has a curious shaped silver device.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34Lift the gadget out and you see it expands
0:22:35 > 0:22:37to form a mini vessel.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39It's meant to mix something in it,
0:22:40 > 0:22:44hence the silver gilt-lined interior so it won't tarnish.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49And then, having mixed the potion, you need to pour it out,
0:22:49 > 0:22:52hopefully onto a spoon.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56And from the spoon it goes straight down the patient's throat.
0:22:56 > 0:23:00Because this is another piece of doctor's equipment.
0:23:00 > 0:23:04But very special. It's hallmarked. For London, 1892.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09So the late-Victorian doctor would've carried this about
0:23:09 > 0:23:11as a part of his medical kit.
0:23:11 > 0:23:16This thing is a bit more expensive. It would cost you here in Derby £140.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Still, you know what they say.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26So, a couple of weeks later
0:23:26 > 0:23:28and we're all back in Derbyshire for the auction.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40How lovely it is to be six miles southwest of Derby
0:23:40 > 0:23:44at Etwall, at Charles Hanson's sale room. Charles?
0:23:44 > 0:23:48- Hello.- Let's have a look at Jane and Christine's objects,
0:23:48 > 0:23:51- which follow a familiar Charlie Ross pattern.- Yes.- If you ask me.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56We've got ourselves an embossed little pin dish which came out of
0:23:56 > 0:23:59- an Edwardian dressing table set of 20 or 30 pieces.- Yes.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- And this is the survivor, right?- It's a nice object.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06You've got the embossed sea scroll, you've got the near Rococo style.
0:24:06 > 0:24:11It is quite light, it is very tinny, but there's no splits, it's in good condition.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14And it hasn't been engraved with a cartouche.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18It's Birmingham, it's 1900, it's just a pretty box.
0:24:18 > 0:24:23- How much?- I can see it now making about... £75.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26- That's a pity, because they paid £115.- Oh, no.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30Next is the pair of dishes, which are interesting, aren't they?
0:24:30 > 0:24:32There's that word in the antiques business.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36It's "speculative". What are they? Where have they come from?
0:24:36 > 0:24:38And to be frank, I really don't know.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42They are beautifully enamelled, they have that almost hammered silver finish.
0:24:42 > 0:24:48- I don't know where they're from.- Are they Russian? I wouldn't know. But somebody will try and work them out.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50On that basis, they're gonna want to have a go.
0:24:50 > 0:24:56- They've got mileage. I can see them motoring along quite happily.- How much?- Between 40 and £60.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01- Gosh. You have to put your foot on the old accelerator there, Charles. £90 paid.- Oh dear.- Yes.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06Lastly we've got this mesh bag, which looks slightly on the edge of Woolworths to me.
0:25:06 > 0:25:12Tim, it's quite remarkable. We had, an hour before this object came into our sale room,
0:25:12 > 0:25:18an Asprey's bag, almost identical in terms of being gold and enamel,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20and worth maybe between two and £3,000.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24- What, the real thing?- The real thing. But it's got the jazz feel.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27We mustn't forget, it's got that exterior look of being Art Deco.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30It is just a bygone from almost 890 years ago,
0:25:30 > 0:25:34- and it's quite sophisticated.- All right, how much?
0:25:34 > 0:25:37- Tim, my guide price is between 20 and £30.- Fair enough.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39- They only paid £30.- Good.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43It's these other two babies we've got the disparity with.
0:25:43 > 0:25:48If you're right and they're wrong, they're going to need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52- Now, Jane, Christine, you gave the boy £65.- We did, yes.
0:25:52 > 0:25:56- What did he spend it on? Charles?- I didn't spend all your money.- Oh, right.
0:25:56 > 0:26:02- I'll tell you that in a minute, but I bought quality, quality, quality. - Ooh.- It's a sugar shaker.- Right.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05It has a silver top, Birmingham, 1906,
0:26:05 > 0:26:10but I particularly was drawn to this rather Deco shape of the body.
0:26:10 > 0:26:15- And it cost £40.- Right. OK.- I loved the shape and I loved the quality.
0:26:16 > 0:26:21The average shaker doesn't really do it for me, but I thought that was absolutely charming.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25It's got a little dent in the top which I don't think's a problem.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29So you've got quality glass, silver, and 1906.
0:26:30 > 0:26:32- £40? Can't go wrong.- Ooh.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36- OK, that's great.- It's nice, yes. - So glass in good nick, Carlos?
0:26:36 > 0:26:42- Absolutely, and that's key. If it had a chip or something I wouldn't have been interested.- Right.
0:26:42 > 0:26:46- Perfect glass, a bit of bruising to the silver.- And what about the dint? Will that affect it?
0:26:46 > 0:26:50- You can push that out. I don't think it's a problem at all.- Right.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54- Do you like it, Jane?- I love it. - How much profit is it going to make?
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Er, it's going to make a profit of £15.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00- 15?- Right, OK.- There's a prediction for you.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04- Good. Well, just relish the thought, girls.- OK.
0:27:04 > 0:27:10While we, for the audience at home, find out from the auctioneer whether he is quite as optimistic or not.
0:27:11 > 0:27:17- There we go, Charles. A bit of sugar on your strawberries.- It's a good shape, isn't it?- Unusual.
0:27:17 > 0:27:21It's a square, tapered cut, and it's Edwardian, it's 1906.
0:27:21 > 0:27:26And you normally see that sort of lighthouse revived Georgian form,
0:27:26 > 0:27:29but I like this because it's got that hint of the modernism about it.
0:27:29 > 0:27:34It's got that practical purpose which serves its form and function.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39- The glass isn't chipped.- No, it's in good condition. The hallmark's crystal clear,
0:27:39 > 0:27:45literally, on the silver. The maker, John Grinsell & Sons, Birmingham, 1906, and it's just quite unusual.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47- I quite like it.- Mm. OK, how much do you like it?
0:27:47 > 0:27:51I like it and I would guide it between 30 and £50.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53- OK, fine. Charlie paid £40.- Good.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56- I think the team would be quite safe to go with that.- Yes.
0:27:56 > 0:28:02- Lovely. We'll see what happens.- Yes. - First up for the Blues is this so-called Korean pot.- Yes.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04How do you rate that, Charles Hanson?
0:28:04 > 0:28:07Tim, we can often become excited by Far Eastern artefacts,
0:28:07 > 0:28:13particularly pottery and if it's Chinese and very early.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16And, of course, the shape of this is almost going back
0:28:16 > 0:28:20to the Chinese Yuan dynasty of the 13th or 14th centuries.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24We only wish it was. I think what we've got here is probably a Korean copy.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27And it could be 19th, it could be early-20th century.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29- It's a bit mysterious.- What's your estimate?
0:28:29 > 0:28:33Tim, I think it is what it is, and I would hopefully see it,
0:28:33 > 0:28:37- on a good day, making about £50.- OK. £80 paid.- OK.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40Next is the suffragette broach. How do you rate that?
0:28:40 > 0:28:45It's quite nice. It's a charming broach, obviously with the colours of the suffragettes.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47It's pretty, Tim, it's of the period,
0:28:47 > 0:28:50and it's a nice piece of social history.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54- Lovely. How much?- We saw one similar about two months ago.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57- I think it made £100, Tim.- Oh, did it?- Yes, yes.
0:28:57 > 0:29:03- So there is some hope then.- There's hope.- OK, next is the travelling fork and knife set,
0:29:03 > 0:29:05which is quite nice, isn't it?
0:29:05 > 0:29:08Tim, the reason I like the object is because it has a look about it,
0:29:08 > 0:29:13and by that I mean it's that modern, stylish, Continental feel.
0:29:13 > 0:29:19And they just are striking, and that's their value, Tim. They're striking, from a certain period.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21OK, so how much do they strike you, value-wise?
0:29:21 > 0:29:24Probably German, that sort of modernist feel.
0:29:24 > 0:29:28My guide price would be between, I think it ought to make between 30 and £40.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32- OK, fine. They paid £45.- OK. So they could be slightly out there.
0:29:32 > 0:29:37Slightly out with the knife and fork and the suffragette, and anything might happen with the Korean pot.
0:29:37 > 0:29:42- It's quite exciting.- I can't wait. It's a rollercoaster.- In case it all goes wrong,
0:29:42 > 0:29:44let's look at their bonus buy.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Now Lynne and Helen, this is your moment,
0:29:47 > 0:29:49where Thomas Plant reveals all.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52You gave him £65. What did you buy, Tom?
0:29:52 > 0:29:56- I've bought this rather fine plate. Indian.- Uh-huh.
0:29:57 > 0:29:59North-western. It's called Bidriware.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02This is going to be a pewtery sort of base here.
0:30:02 > 0:30:07Quite heavy, but inlayed with this beautiful silver inlay in here.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10- Gosh, look at that. - It's simply beautiful.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14- I did say I'd buy something which had influenced the Aesthetic period. - Yeah.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18This is 19th century, this may well be the same time as the Aesthetic period.
0:30:18 > 0:30:23It's the kind of object that would've influenced them when they were designing things.
0:30:23 > 0:30:28This would come over, they were probably producing a similar thing in the 18th century.
0:30:28 > 0:30:33- This is 19th century, though.- It's very nice.- Is that going to be a problem?
0:30:33 > 0:30:39Some clever soul would be able to certainly make one of these and slip it in there, I'm very sure.
0:30:39 > 0:30:43Yes, it is a bit damaged, but if it wasn't damaged
0:30:43 > 0:30:47- it would've cost me a lot more than the £50 I spent on it.- £50.- OK.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50- Nifty fifty.- It should make a small ten pound profit.
0:30:50 > 0:30:54So these are collected? People do collect that type of ware?
0:30:54 > 0:30:59What you've got to think about now is don't think about the traditional antiques market,
0:30:59 > 0:31:03think about the new emerging economies which are buying back,
0:31:03 > 0:31:09so yes, it's on the internet, hopefully somebody in India, or a couple of people, have seen this.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12Or a client who buys for the Indian market.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15Yes, there'll be some people hot to trot, I would hope, for that.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18- Wouldn't you?- I would hope so, definitely.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22On the other hand, you may not need it at the end of all your stellar success
0:31:22 > 0:31:26which we are about to witness, you may not need the bonus buy. How lovely is that?
0:31:26 > 0:31:30- It's a nice thought.- A lovely thought. Anyway, on that happy thought,
0:31:30 > 0:31:36let's find out, for the viewers at home, what the auctioneer thinks about Tom's Bidri plate.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40- Look at that, Charles.- I was quite taken by this when I first saw it.
0:31:40 > 0:31:43It's something which, again, like with the Korean vase,
0:31:43 > 0:31:47it has potential, it has that Eastern promise.
0:31:47 > 0:31:52It has the opportunity of doing quite well. I have no idea what it's worth, but buyers will speculate
0:31:52 > 0:31:57- on this being something quite important.- We've got the speculation. Give it your best shot.
0:31:57 > 0:32:01- It could make up to £100.- Could it really?- Yes. We've had some interest in it.
0:32:01 > 0:32:06- People wanting more detail on the condition in particular.- Super. Thomas paid 50.- Good.
0:32:06 > 0:32:12- He's very canny, so, on that basis, he could be right, it could be a very good bonus buy.- Can't wait.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25- Just how excited are you?- We're excited. Very excited.- Very excited. - Are you?
0:32:25 > 0:32:29- Would you say you're easily excitable?- Depends.- Fairly.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33OK, now, here we go, girls.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38This really is wonderful. It's a Victorian silver rectangular dressing table box and cover.
0:32:38 > 0:32:43Cast in the Rococo style, it was made in Birmingham in the year 1900.
0:32:43 > 0:32:49I'm only bid here £35. It's solid silver. 45, 55, 65, 70.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51Yes, yes.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54- 75, five.- Go on.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57- 85.- Yes!- Go on.
0:32:57 > 0:33:00- It's a wonderful box. At 85? One more.- One more, one more.
0:33:00 > 0:33:0285, 95!
0:33:02 > 0:33:04- Go on.- Go on.- I know, one more, sir.
0:33:04 > 0:33:0995? No, it's 90 on the front row with the lady. I'll take five now.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12It's a wonderful solid silver box. One more?
0:33:12 > 0:33:14- 95?- 95.- A bit more.
0:33:14 > 0:33:18Fair warning. I'll take 95. It's a wonderful box for 90.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20I'll take five, or we sell.
0:33:20 > 0:33:22Going once,
0:33:22 > 0:33:25- going twice, we sell for £90. - HE BANGS GAVEL
0:33:25 > 0:33:28- It's minus £25, but it could've been a lot worse.- It could.
0:33:28 > 0:33:32Come on, girls, face up to this. Now...
0:33:32 > 0:33:36These are an interesting pair of hammered silver dishes.
0:33:36 > 0:33:39They could be Bulgarian, they could be Russian,
0:33:39 > 0:33:41probably early-20th century.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44And I will start these at £40.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46I'll take five now. Five, 55,
0:33:47 > 0:33:49I've got 65,
0:33:49 > 0:33:52I'm out. £65 I'm bid.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55- Do I see 70 now? Who would like them.- Uh-oh!
0:33:55 > 0:33:59You're all out. At 65... 70!
0:33:59 > 0:34:01- A new bidder, yes.- Five!
0:34:01 > 0:34:04Are you sure, sir? Well, thank you for coming.
0:34:04 > 0:34:0870. I'll take five or we sell at £70.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10- And we say sale. - HE BANGS GAVEL
0:34:10 > 0:34:14- We say sale but, sadly, £20 under. - Yeah.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- Mark you, he only put 40 to 60, so that's...- Maybe on the next one.- Yes.
0:34:19 > 0:34:24Minus £20, girls. You're minus 45. Now here comes your little bag.
0:34:24 > 0:34:28Probably 1930s, full of that cocktail, Art Deco swagger.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32And there it is. Bid me ten pounds.
0:34:32 > 0:34:35Bid me a tenner. It's a really pretty bag, Art Deco.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Ten, 12, 15, 18, 20.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41Two, five.
0:34:41 > 0:34:43At £22, Miss Hornblower.
0:34:43 > 0:34:47- I'll take five now. 22. I'll take five now.- Come on, Miss Hornblower.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49- One more do I see?- Come up, come up.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52At £22. We'll sell it, make no mistake, at £22.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54- Going, going... - HE BANGS GAVEL
0:34:54 > 0:34:59- Gone!- That is minus £8. Bad luck, girls. 45 is 50. That's minus 53.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Minus 53 I make it.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05So what are we going to do about the caster, then?
0:35:05 > 0:35:09- Oh, we're going to go for it.- We're going to go for it.- We're going to trust in you.
0:35:09 > 0:35:14- Go for it.- Yes.- Definitely. We've got to.- Yes.- I wish you good luck, girls. Here it comes.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17What a nice object. Where do we start with this?
0:35:17 > 0:35:21I have got interest here, and I can start this at 25.
0:35:21 > 0:35:2328, 32,
0:35:23 > 0:35:26five, eight's my bid.
0:35:26 > 0:35:29Do I see 40 now? 38, 42, five.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32One more. 45?
0:35:33 > 0:35:35And I'll be out. 45. Thank you.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38I look for eight now. 45. I look for eight.
0:35:39 > 0:35:42- 48, 50.- Yes.- You've come so far, sir.
0:35:42 > 0:35:45I will take 50 for it. 48 in the centre.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47- 50. - THEY BOTH GASP
0:35:47 > 0:35:51- Yes!- A bit more, a bit more. - 51 more.- Higher, higher.
0:35:51 > 0:35:5360, sir.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56One for the row and the aisle? He says no, and that means I'm out.
0:35:56 > 0:36:00You're in the centre at £55. I look for 60.
0:36:00 > 0:36:02Fair warning, we're in the centre.
0:36:02 > 0:36:06We'll say sell. Thank you, sir. At £55,
0:36:06 > 0:36:09all done, the phones are out, going, going, gone!
0:36:09 > 0:36:11- HE BANGS GAVEL - Well done.
0:36:11 > 0:36:15- He's your man, isn't he? He's the man.- Steady, girls.
0:36:15 > 0:36:19Listen, isn't that good? Plus £15 on that, which is really helped you out,
0:36:19 > 0:36:24because it's taken you from 53 to a 43, and it's taken you to...
0:36:25 > 0:36:27..minus 43.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29It's taken you to minus 38.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Thomas found you your Korean pot.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42- The jury is out as to how old that is.- Yes.
0:36:42 > 0:36:48But I think it's a speculative buy at £80. It's a jolly good thing to have a go at. And here it comes.
0:36:48 > 0:36:52Probably 19th century, could be a bit earlier, could be a bit later.
0:36:52 > 0:36:56- However, I'm only bid £30. That's all I'm bid.- Come on.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00£30 I'm bid. Do I see £32? £30, it's a wonderful vase.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03Who would like it? For £32?
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Do I see it? It's got to go.
0:37:05 > 0:37:09That's my bid, bid me two now. Surely one more?
0:37:09 > 0:37:12Or well sell it. One more bid, surely?
0:37:12 > 0:37:14£30 I'm bid. Two and I'm out.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17I'll take five... if you would like it.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Make no mistake,
0:37:19 > 0:37:22it's going to go at £32.
0:37:22 > 0:37:24- Going, going... - HE BANGS GAVEL
0:37:24 > 0:37:28- Gone!- That is minus 48. That's a hit.
0:37:28 > 0:37:31Uh-oh. Now, suffragette broach.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35Think back to Emmeline Pankhurst and the derby of 1913,
0:37:35 > 0:37:38and that was girl power. And it really reflects a period,
0:37:38 > 0:37:43and we say good morning to our buyers who are live in America.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48For a phone bid. So a very good morning to our friends in America
0:37:48 > 0:37:51who are bidding for this very nice suffragette broach.
0:37:51 > 0:37:58Where do we start? And I'm, well, I'm bid here £25, 35, 40, 45, 50,
0:37:58 > 0:38:00five, 60, five, 70,
0:38:01 > 0:38:02I've got five, 80.
0:38:02 > 0:38:05I'm out. £80 I'm bid now. Do I see five in the room? £85.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Think suffragettes, ladies,
0:38:08 > 0:38:1185, 90, and what they stood for.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14- 90, five...- Go on. Go, Charles.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17- 100.- Go, Charles.- Are you sure? Make it the big one.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20100, 105.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22- 110...- Yes!
0:38:22 > 0:38:24105 I'm bid. We'll go over the pond
0:38:25 > 0:38:27to the States. 110 in the States, please.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31110, 120, 130, America.
0:38:32 > 0:38:34130, 140, 150.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39150? 150, 160.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43One for the road. You're a London lady. 170.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47170! I'm going to say to you, "come again."
0:38:48 > 0:38:51180?! I've got 180. 190.
0:38:51 > 0:38:54- He's a good auctioneer.- 180. I'll take 190.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57What we say is fair warning.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59We sell, in the room,
0:39:01 > 0:39:05at £180. You're all out.
0:39:05 > 0:39:09- America is not coming back.- Out in the room.
0:39:09 > 0:39:13- Going, going... It's yours. Well done, madam.- £180!
0:39:13 > 0:39:16- Good sale. There you are.- Good. Well done.
0:39:16 > 0:39:21It just goes to show, you trust your judgement and you'll be all right. You just made a profit of £70.
0:39:21 > 0:39:26Isn't that marvellous? Look out, here comes the travelling knife and fork set.
0:39:26 > 0:39:28Do I see £15?
0:39:28 > 0:39:3015, 18, 20, and I'm out.
0:39:30 > 0:39:32It's cheap. 20. I'll take two now.
0:39:32 > 0:39:3422, five, eight.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36- 30.- Look at him go.
0:39:36 > 0:39:40- Are you sure?- Go on!- 20 I'm bid. Do I see 30 now?
0:39:40 > 0:39:43- It's really neat. 28.- I don't believe this.- 32.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47One more, sir. Madam, 30, yes? 32, sir.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51No. The lady at 30, I'll take two.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55Fair warning, the phones are out. Miss White, you're out this time,
0:39:55 > 0:39:59and we sell to a lady at £30 and say going, going, going,
0:39:59 > 0:40:01- gone!- £30. You're minus £15,
0:40:01 > 0:40:05you were plus 22, which means you are plus seven pounds.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07Yes, that's £3.50 each. THEY BOTH LAUGH
0:40:09 > 0:40:13Isn't that cool? Now, what are you going to do about the Bidri dish?
0:40:13 > 0:40:17- What are we going to do?- Are you going to leave it?- Yes.
0:40:17 > 0:40:22- Yes?- Fair enough.- OK, that's it. But I have to tell you, we're going to sell it anyway.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24You paid £50, Tom. The auctioneer has rated it.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28He thinks it's going to be worth at least £100.
0:40:28 > 0:40:30You've decided not to go with it.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33We're going to sell it anyway, and here it comes!
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Probably early 19th century, and a real blast from the past.
0:40:36 > 0:40:38I've got three bids on this,
0:40:38 > 0:40:41and I can start Lot 220
0:40:41 > 0:40:43with bids at £40.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46Five, 50. Do I see five now?
0:40:46 > 0:40:48Five, 60.
0:40:48 > 0:40:52I've got 60, bid me five. You're out and I'm in.
0:40:52 > 0:40:5460, bid me five. It's a wonderful thing.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Five, 70's my bid.
0:40:56 > 0:41:00Five, you're in... and I'm out.
0:41:00 > 0:41:02To a lady, at £75,
0:41:02 > 0:41:07- bid me 80 now. One more do I see? - £80. Well done, Tom.
0:41:07 > 0:41:10One more. 85, 90.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12- £90, Tom!- I know you want it. Five.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16- One for the road.- Tom.- Get stuck in.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18- Girls.- 95, 100, sir.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20How can we get it so wrong, girls?
0:41:21 > 0:41:2395 I'm bid. Do I see one more?
0:41:23 > 0:41:26Or we sell it to a lady.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29It's going south, and we sell, all done, fair warning,
0:41:29 > 0:41:32- at £95, and thank you very much. - HE BANGS GAVEL.
0:41:32 > 0:41:37- Plus £45, Tom. That's a lovely profit of plus £45.- Sorry.
0:41:37 > 0:41:39You lost your confidence,
0:41:39 > 0:41:43but the suffragette broach made all that money.
0:41:43 > 0:41:45Anyway, you are seven pounds up,
0:41:45 > 0:41:48nobody is going to take that away from you.
0:41:48 > 0:41:51- Just don't say a word to the Reds, OK?- No.
0:41:55 > 0:42:00Well, well, well, this is lovely, isn't it? There is one message from today's programme
0:42:00 > 0:42:05to all you bargain hunters, and that is take notice of your experts,
0:42:05 > 0:42:08who come up with bonus buys that are indeed profitable.
0:42:08 > 0:42:13And some teams that do take notice of their experts with their bonus buys
0:42:13 > 0:42:16manage, nevertheless, to be the runners up.
0:42:16 > 0:42:18THEY ALL LAUGH
0:42:18 > 0:42:22The Reds. You did follow your expert's advice
0:42:22 > 0:42:25and you got £15-worth of profit out of him,
0:42:25 > 0:42:28which is more profit than you made on anything else.
0:42:28 > 0:42:30So you had to be grateful to old Carlos.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34- Actually, your end number is minus £38.- Yes.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Which is not such a shameful thing, I have to say.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39- But you had a nice time?- Oh, wonderful. Loved it.
0:42:39 > 0:42:43You've been the greatest fun, thank you very much. But now for the winners,
0:42:43 > 0:42:47who are going home with real money. They're going home with £7. There we go.
0:42:47 > 0:42:52Had you taken your expert's advice you would be going home with £52!
0:42:53 > 0:42:59But you decided that he was not up to mustard and therefore you weren't going to do his Indian Bidri dish,
0:42:59 > 0:43:03- but it did work out all right, Tom, didn't it?- It did work out.
0:43:03 > 0:43:05So I congratulate you on that. Thank you, Tom.
0:43:05 > 0:43:09In fact, join us soon for some more bargain hunting. Yes? Yes!
0:43:11 > 0:43:15I know you're sitting there thinking, "I could have done better than that."
0:43:15 > 0:43:18Well, what's stopping you?
0:43:18 > 0:43:22If you think you can spot a bargain, go to our BBC website and apply.
0:43:22 > 0:43:24It'll be splendid to see you.
