Today we're at the Staffordshire County Showgrounds

0:00:050:00:08

with two teams dying to dive in and find their bargain -

0:00:080:00:13

well, three bargains each, hopefully -

0:00:130:00:15

out of the hundreds of stalls that we've got here.

0:00:150:00:19

You know the rules - so, let's go bargain hunting. Yeah!

0:00:190:00:24

Did you know that Staffordshire has more miles of canals in it,

0:00:470:00:51

than any other county in England?

0:00:510:00:54

Well, let's hope that our teams' waterworks are in perfect working condition

0:00:550:01:01

and that they come up with gushloads of profits later at the auction.

0:01:010:01:06

Let's have a wee peek...at what's coming up.

0:01:060:01:08

In today's programme, the Reds are planning a pub crawl.

0:01:100:01:13

-Here's a picture for the album - way-hey!

-Definitely.

0:01:130:01:17

While the Blues are feeling fruity. Or should that be flirty?

0:01:170:01:21

-Come and have a feel of my apple.

-LAUGHTER

0:01:210:01:25

So, it's time to meet the teams.

0:01:250:01:27

So, for the Reds today we have Jan and Marie,

0:01:270:01:31

-and for the Blues we have Joan and Diane. Hello, everyone.

-ALL:

-Hello.

0:01:310:01:35

Lovely to see you. So, Jan, how did you meet?

0:01:350:01:38

We met at a drama group in Stratford-upon-Avon called Second Thoughts

0:01:380:01:44

and we were in a Spanish play called The House Of Bernarda Alba,

0:01:440:01:48

and I was playing a 90-year-old, very crazy grandmother,

0:01:480:01:53

and Marie was a peasant.

0:01:530:01:55

-This was a play that took off, I take it.

-Yes, it's a Spanish classic.

0:01:550:01:59

-It's a classic?

-Yes, you do wonder.

0:01:590:02:01

Anyway, no, I'm not wondering about that.

0:02:010:02:04

I bow to the superior knowledge.

0:02:040:02:07

Now, Jan, you've got a knowledge of antiques. Where does that come from?

0:02:070:02:11

-Bargain Hunt.

-Is it?

-Yes.

0:02:110:02:13

Because 13 years ago I was registered blind

0:02:130:02:16

and found myself housebound somewhat and you turn to daytime TV.

0:02:160:02:22

Yes, nothing the matter with that. Daytime is the new prime time!

0:02:220:02:26

Well, yes!

0:02:260:02:27

And then Bargain Hunt came on the scene and you changed everything.

0:02:270:02:31

-Good.

-Now when I watch it, I say, "I wouldn't buy that, it's rubbish!"

0:02:310:02:35

Marie, you've got a love of antiques, too.

0:02:350:02:38

Yes, I was brought up in the '50s going up and down Portobello Road

0:02:380:02:41

-with my dad in the days before Portobello Road was trendy.

-Yes.

0:02:410:02:45

And he'd buy things that were black, take them home and clean them up

0:02:450:02:49

and they'd turn into Davy lamps and copper coal scuttles, and all the rest.

0:02:490:02:53

So, I learnt from him.

0:02:530:02:56

Now, you've also got an interest in history?

0:02:560:02:59

Yes, my degree was in medieval history

0:02:590:03:01

and my career until I retired was as an archivist.

0:03:010:03:04

So, essentially, I was a local historian, but being based in Stratford -

0:03:040:03:08

still am based in Stratford-upon-Avon - there's an element of Shakespeare as well.

0:03:080:03:12

-So, local history, Shakespeare...

-Yes.

-All that sort of stuff was my thing.

0:03:120:03:16

-To be or not...

-Or not to be. Indeed. Yes.

0:03:160:03:18

So, what will you be looking out for today?

0:03:180:03:20

-Ooh.

-Ooh.

-Oooh.

-Quirky?

-Yeah, for me, definitely quirky.

0:03:200:03:23

-Is it? Quirkier of the better?

-Yes.

-Yes. Definitely.

0:03:230:03:26

Will you stoop to any depths to get hold of your quirkiness?

0:03:260:03:30

Well, I've got no pride. No pride, Tim. I will stoop.

0:03:300:03:33

Do you know, I think you girls will do incredibly well on Bargain Hunt.

0:03:330:03:37

-Thank you.

-You've got ALL the best qualifications!

0:03:370:03:39

-Now, Diane, where did you two girls meet?

-We met in our local pub.

0:03:390:03:44

Because our husbands both like karaoke. They are karaoke freaks.

0:03:440:03:47

-Are they?

-Yes.

0:03:470:03:49

So how many nights a week do they go off doing the karaoke?

0:03:490:03:52

Well, both of them can go three times a week, can't they?

0:03:520:03:55

We only go once, Joan and I.

0:03:550:03:58

-To support them?

-Once is enough, yeah!

0:03:580:04:01

Well, there we go. Now, you've also got a love of antiques.

0:04:020:04:05

-I have, yeah. Victorian.

-Oh, you like Victorian?

0:04:050:04:09

We've got a Victorian, big, terraced house

0:04:090:04:11

and I would like to bring it back to Victorian.

0:04:110:04:14

-But it's not easy, and it's not cheap, is it?

-No.

0:04:140:04:17

-Now, Joan, you're no stranger to the cameras, are you?

-No, I'm not.

0:04:170:04:21

Tell us about your career.

0:04:210:04:23

In the '80s I appeared on a cookery programme called Farmhouse Kitchen.

0:04:230:04:29

-And I was the microwave expert.

-Oh, were you? Very modern!

-It was then!

0:04:290:04:34

Have you got any terrible stories about your souffle going flat, and all that?

0:04:340:04:38

No, but I did, on my first programme, make 13 breakfasts,

0:04:380:04:41

because the sound guys couldn't get the sound coinciding with the picture.

0:04:410:04:45

And I got fed up of saying this is going in for one and a half minutes.

0:04:450:04:50

-Yes, and do that 13 times.

-Yeah, you lose the sparkle.

0:04:500:04:53

And to stick it in 13 times. I can see are sound men all wincing.

0:04:530:04:57

They're shaking their heads - "It'd never happen on Bargain Hunt!"

0:04:570:05:00

-And was it good fun, though?

-Loved it.

0:05:000:05:03

Do people come up and ask you for your autograph?

0:05:030:05:05

-It has been known, yes.

-Isn't that sweet!

0:05:050:05:08

Now, what are you going to buy today when you go shopping on Bargain Hunt, you two?

0:05:080:05:11

-Something that makes a profit?

-Something that makes a profit.

0:05:110:05:15

-You're joking.

-Probably!

0:05:150:05:18

Now, there's your £300 apiece.

0:05:180:05:21

You know the rules, your experts await, off you go

0:05:210:05:25

and very, very, very good luck!

0:05:250:05:27

Fully focused and ready to snap up a bargain for the Reds, it's...

0:05:300:05:34

And ready to make a clean sweep for the Blues, it's...

0:05:360:05:40

And with experts like this, what could possibly go wrong?

0:05:400:05:43

-Well, let's find out.

-Marie and Jan, do you share a common taste?

0:05:430:05:48

-Will we be looking for similar things?

-Yes.

-I think so.

0:05:480:05:51

Yeah, I'd say so.

0:05:510:05:53

Joan, Diane, a little bargain Hunt birdie told me

0:05:530:05:57

you've had a little rehearsal. Now, what's all this about?

0:05:570:06:01

-We have got £300.

-Right.

-One-hour.

-Yeah.

-And three things to buy.

0:06:010:06:05

We had a little practice run, didn't we, Joan?

0:06:050:06:07

-We did.

-Maybe I should've tried it.

-It'd be a good idea!

0:06:070:06:11

-Your eyes and your well tuned sense of touch.

-Absolutely.

0:06:110:06:16

-We'll be a good team.

-Perfect team.

-Perfect team, yes.

-Magic!

0:06:160:06:19

-What happened? Tell me.

-Well, we bought five items...

0:06:190:06:23

-Five?!

-..in 60 minutes -

0:06:230:06:26

-..we timed ourselves and we agreed on everything.

-We did!

0:06:260:06:30

Rehearsals? That's not in the rules! Come along! Let's get cracking!

0:06:300:06:34

I'm looking at a strange object over there

0:06:360:06:38

and the lady is mouthing at me "I don't know what it is!"

0:06:380:06:42

-It is very odd.

-Could you possibly bring it round to us?

-Yes!

0:06:420:06:46

Thank you.

0:06:460:06:47

-So...

-Oh! Oh, I like that! What do you think, Marie?

0:06:490:06:54

It's absolutely... It looks like a wee safe to me.

0:06:540:06:57

-Oh, I'd love that!

-A copper box with a door...

0:06:570:07:00

and little latch, you can feel the wee turned wooden knob there.

0:07:000:07:05

-And then, that's a little vent.

-Oh, is it?

-What are these?

0:07:050:07:09

-These are inlet and outlet pipes.

-So what do they think it was for?

0:07:090:07:14

The lady has no idea, and I'm not so sure I'm going to change that.

0:07:140:07:18

There's a jacket... It could be an oven, or an autoclave.

0:07:180:07:24

I think it's great. I don't know what it is, but it's absolutely gorgeous.

0:07:240:07:27

-How much is it?

-£80.

-ALL: Oh.

0:07:270:07:30

-I think it's too big a punt at that.

-At that price, no.

0:07:300:07:34

-It's a strange object...

-I think we'll leave it.

-'No, go on!'

0:07:340:07:37

'Make an offer.'

0:07:370:07:38

-Are we sure we're doing the right thing, walking away?

-Um...

0:07:430:07:47

I'm going to make a silly bid. I'm going to offer her 25.

0:07:470:07:51

-Well, go for it.

-OK.

-Are you happy with that, Jan?

-What? What's that?

0:07:510:07:55

-I'll offer her 25.

-Go on, then.

-'If you don't ask, you don't get.'

0:07:550:07:59

-25?

-That's not enough for it.

0:07:590:08:01

When nobody knows what it is...

0:08:010:08:02

It might make a fortune at auction for you. You may treble your money.

0:08:020:08:08

-Ah... Don't know.

-You won't see another one.

0:08:080:08:12

-We'll go up to 35.

-35, yeah, OK.

-LAUGHTER

0:08:120:08:16

-Wonderful!

-Thank you.

0:08:160:08:18

I was determined to buy something quirky!

0:08:190:08:23

You've ticked that box!

0:08:230:08:26

But what is this intriguing little copper box?

0:08:260:08:30

Perhaps the auctioneer will know. Let's hope so.

0:08:300:08:32

That's quite fun.

0:08:340:08:36

A fruitwood turned apple tea caddy.

0:08:370:08:40

-Have a feel.

-It looks nice, doesn't it? What wood is it?

0:08:400:08:43

Joan, come and have a feel of my apple.

0:08:430:08:45

-'Cor, that Mark's feeling fruity.'

-Fruitwood?

-Fruitwood.

0:08:450:08:49

It means any tree that bears fruit. Don't ask me which trees.

0:08:490:08:53

-But I know it's not plums.

-I reckon it might be apple.

-Apple!

0:08:530:08:56

What gave you that idea?

0:08:560:08:59

-It's nice, that.

-Do you like it, Joan?

-Yeah.

0:08:590:09:03

-How much is it?

-£18.

-Look at that.

0:09:030:09:05

-Lovely grain inside.

-It's worth thinking about, I suppose.

0:09:050:09:09

-How much? Best price?

-We're not thinking, Joan. We need to buy.

0:09:090:09:12

It's not Think About Bargain Hunting!

0:09:120:09:17

-It says 18.

-I can do 15.

-Oh, we need it a bit cheaper than that. ten?

0:09:170:09:22

-No, I can't do 10. I'll do it 12 and that's the best price.

-12?

0:09:220:09:27

-Would you be happy with 12?

-Yes.

0:09:270:09:29

It's quite an expensive apple.

0:09:290:09:32

Don't start now!

0:09:320:09:34

I do think we should grab that.

0:09:340:09:38

Yeah, I do. 12, OK. OK, thank you.

0:09:380:09:42

-Our first buy.

-Our first buy.

0:09:420:09:44

Now, with nearly 20 minutes gone, it's level-pegging.

0:09:440:09:47

One buy each for each team.

0:09:470:09:50

I'm feeling all fruity now.

0:09:500:09:51

Don't get giddy!

0:09:520:09:56

So, back to the Reds, then.

0:09:560:09:58

Who are quite literally, feeling their way.

0:09:580:10:01

Now, you will find this a sensory delight, I should think.

0:10:010:10:05

-Oh, yes.

-How do they feel?

0:10:050:10:08

There's some very, very deep incise in here.

0:10:080:10:10

I can get my nice Bargain Hunt nail right in there.

0:10:100:10:13

Which I didn't realise.

0:10:130:10:16

Feel the rim and feel the foot and tell us if there are any chips.

0:10:160:10:19

-Any cracks?

-There's something there.

0:10:190:10:22

-Oh, let me... Sorry.

-No, no.

-There's been a chunk out of the foot.

0:10:220:10:26

-Someone's put it down too heavy, and it's popped. You felt that?

-Yeah.

0:10:260:10:32

-I think they are fatally flawed, to be honest with you.

-OK.

0:10:320:10:35

I think we've gone a long way down this route, and it was all positive,

0:10:350:10:39

-then at the final hurdle, we fell. Interesting things.

-Yeah, very interesting.

0:10:390:10:42

-Thank you very much for your time.

-Thank you.

-Wonderful.

0:10:420:10:46

-Thanks for that.

-Very good.

-All the best.

0:10:460:10:48

I am seriously impressed that Jan can feel the damage in a flash.

0:10:480:10:52

-You've got to think about what a general sale wants.

-Yeah.

0:10:550:10:57

It wants things that are going to be reasonable.

0:10:570:11:00

What's that box over there, Mark?

0:11:000:11:02

Could we have a look? Would you mind?

0:11:020:11:05

-This is probably a tea caddy.

-That's nice.

0:11:050:11:08

Do you want to open it up for me? It's probably a cigar box, actually.

0:11:080:11:12

-Yeah.

-Although the style, again, is very Victorian.

-Yes.

0:11:120:11:15

-With all this brasswork.

-I love that. I really, really like that.

0:11:150:11:19

-It's mahogany veneered, I think. How much is it?

-65.

-65.

0:11:190:11:24

-It's not unreasonable to ask £65 for that, actually.

-No.

0:11:240:11:28

Because it's quite a pretty... Do you like it, Joan?

0:11:280:11:30

-I do like it, yes.

-And it's got a key.

-Yeah. Don't always find the key.

-And it locks.

0:11:300:11:36

I like that. I really like that.

0:11:360:11:38

-Do you really like it, Joan?

-I like it. I think it's quite nice.

0:11:380:11:43

-Shall we see what we can get it for?

-I think it's a bit top-heavy.

0:11:430:11:46

May we ask what the best price would be?

0:11:460:11:49

-£45.

-£45.

-That's OK.

-Quite a nice discount.

-Yes, yes.

0:11:490:11:55

They're doing you a third.

0:11:550:11:57

-I really like that.

-OK. Agreed.

-Happy with 45?

-Yes. Yes.

0:11:570:12:00

-Shall we call that our second purchase?

-Yes.

-Call it our second purchase.

0:12:000:12:04

So, the Blues have shelled out only £57 on two items so far,

0:12:040:12:08

so why not make the third purchase a whopper, eh?

0:12:080:12:12

-He's looking at a picture.

-Ladies...

0:12:120:12:15

-What's that?

-Is it an original?

0:12:150:12:17

-This is an original. It's a great question. It's a print.

-Yeah!

0:12:170:12:22

-It's dated 1851.

-Right.

0:12:220:12:25

-Oh, The Great Exhibition.

-It is... It's a hunt meeting.

0:12:250:12:29

This is a mezzotint.

0:12:290:12:32

What mezzotint, as opposed to line engraving, introduces

0:12:320:12:36

are softness and gradation of tones.

0:12:360:12:41

Now, mid-19th century, 150-year-old, there are two of these.

0:12:410:12:46

-Is it on paper?

-It is printed on paper, laid on card.

-Right.

0:12:460:12:50

-The colour is all hand applied. It is hand-tinted.

-Oh!

0:12:500:12:55

-It's beautifully soft.

-Is it?

-Lovely soft shades.

-I can see it's soft shades.

0:12:550:13:00

And the horses particularly. That horse is lovely.

0:13:000:13:03

So, for a pair, what would I expect to pay? Probably...

0:13:030:13:06

£30, £40 each?

0:13:090:13:11

How's about £30 the pair?

0:13:110:13:13

-Really?

-That's amazing!

-Not a lot of money, is it?

-No.

0:13:130:13:17

But as a matter of principle, we have to offer less.

0:13:170:13:20

-I so love the way you think!

-'Liking your style, Reds.'

0:13:200:13:25

-20 for the pair?

-I can do 25 for the pair.

-25? 25? Yeah?

0:13:250:13:30

-Yeah, go on then.

-25 for the pair?

0:13:300:13:32

-25 offered.

-Yeah. I'm just a pushover now.

0:13:320:13:35

No, we'll take them at 25.

0:13:350:13:38

-We've done another deal. Thank you, my man.

-Thank you very much.

-Thank you.

0:13:380:13:42

Thank you, people.

0:13:420:13:43

Great. Thanks very much.

0:13:430:13:45

Now, viewers take note. The Reds just bought two pictures, did they not?

0:13:450:13:49

Well, therein lies a tale. Stay tuned to find out more.

0:13:490:13:54

They do say that good things can come in small packages.

0:13:540:13:58

Like this.

0:13:580:14:00

On the face of it, this is a pretty insignificant little stoneware pot.

0:14:000:14:06

Now this little pot, you'd walk by any day in a fair like this,

0:14:060:14:10

where there are hundreds of thousands of bits of pot,

0:14:100:14:14

and you wouldn't think twice about it.

0:14:140:14:17

Except, you should turn it upside down and see what it says on its little bottom.

0:14:170:14:23

And on its little bottom,

0:14:230:14:25

we've got scratched into the wet clay a signature,

0:14:250:14:29

which is RW Martin, London.

0:14:290:14:32

And that is a name to conjure with.

0:14:320:14:35

Because you may have heard of the Martin Brothers stoneware,

0:14:350:14:40

which is extremely collectable, and extremely valuable.

0:14:400:14:46

A big pot by the Martin Brothers of a bird, for example -

0:14:460:14:50

an eccentric bird with its head turning around -

0:14:500:14:53

something about yay high,

0:14:530:14:56

will sell at auction today for £50,000.

0:14:560:15:00

So on the face of it,

0:15:000:15:01

it's an insignificant miserable little thing.

0:15:010:15:05

Actually, it's an little bit of a treasure.

0:15:050:15:08

And it's an inspiration to all those folk

0:15:080:15:10

who come to antique fairs like this one at Stafford,

0:15:100:15:14

to poke about and pick stuff up.

0:15:140:15:17

Actually, the dealer here knew all about this pot.

0:15:170:15:21

And he is charging £100 for it.

0:15:210:15:24

But what might it make elsewhere,

0:15:240:15:27

in a specialist Martin Brothers Arts and Crafts sale?

0:15:270:15:32

Well, I reckon it could make the top end of £250.

0:15:320:15:36

So, there's a profit in it.

0:15:360:15:38

In fact, there's a profit in it for all of us.

0:15:380:15:42

If you take the trouble to pick it up and have a look.

0:15:420:15:45

20 minutes left on the clock

0:15:450:15:47

and the Blues are trying to sniff out their third and final buy.

0:15:470:15:51

-I like that.

-Yes.

-Yeah, you were both taken by that.

0:15:510:15:55

-Tell me why you like that, ladies.

-I like the colour, a nice blue.

0:15:550:15:59

-Very pretty, isn't it?

-Yeah.

0:15:590:16:01

-And what is it?

-It's a scent bottle, isn't it?

-Scent bottle.

0:16:010:16:03

You're quite right. I like the faceted design.

0:16:030:16:06

-The faceted body with the flash.

-Do you want my spyglass?

-Oh!

0:16:060:16:09

Oh, do you know, she's a right show-off, I'll tell you!

0:16:090:16:14

'I like a woman who comes well equipped!'

0:16:150:16:18

Looks generally in good condition. A little nibble or two.

0:16:180:16:21

This one... It looks gilt, but it's marked sterling.

0:16:210:16:26

So, it might be American, if it's sterling.

0:16:260:16:29

-I knew that'd come in handy.

-Yeah.

-Told you.

0:16:310:16:34

What would you let us have both of them for?

0:16:340:16:36

-Bear in mind, we have to make a profit.

-130.

-130.

0:16:360:16:41

70, 60.

0:16:410:16:42

-I think there's still time.

-OK.

-I love them.

0:16:440:16:47

I do think they're nice quality. You pick very good items.

0:16:470:16:50

-OK, we'll have a think.

-We'll have a think, shall we, OK.

-Yes, thank you.

0:16:500:16:55

Make your minds up, Blues! Time's running out.

0:16:550:16:57

Meanwhile, it looks like the Reds are lining up for a lager.

0:16:570:17:01

This purports to be German...

0:17:010:17:06

-an Imperial German...

-Yeah.

0:17:060:17:07

-..military...

-Yeah.

0:17:080:17:10

..commemorative stein.

0:17:100:17:11

Beer tankard. Yeah?

0:17:110:17:13

We have got little soldiers here round a camp kettle.

0:17:130:17:17

Another chap here marching with his rifle.

0:17:170:17:20

We have the crest of Bavaria - the lion rampant.

0:17:210:17:26

We even personalise it with some hand-work here...

0:17:260:17:30

It's saying the 3rd Hessian regiment, Number 82, I think,

0:17:300:17:35

fourth company in Basel, 1894 to 1896.

0:17:350:17:40

There's another feature to this, and it's a lithophane base,

0:17:400:17:43

which I will explain in a moment.

0:17:430:17:44

I'm sorry, Jan's going to be so frustrating for you because it's a visual feature.

0:17:440:17:49

-Can't touch it? No.

-If we hold that up to the light...

0:17:490:17:51

Oh, I see. It's got a face.

0:17:510:17:54

-Kaiser Bill's up there...

-On the bottom.

0:17:540:17:55

..peering at you from the bottom of your pint pot.

0:17:550:17:58

-I've heard of things like that.

-German stein 65 quid.

0:17:580:18:02

Could be 50 quid, but that's the best it will do.

0:18:020:18:05

Guys, have a feel of that.

0:18:050:18:08

-Now you did say ceramics.

-It's heavy!

0:18:080:18:10

I may have steered you from the decorative to the historical.

0:18:100:18:13

Oh, no, I can... I can just see my lager in there.

0:18:130:18:16

HE LAUGHS

0:18:160:18:18

-You think I'm joking, don't you?

-She's not! Believe me, she's not!

0:18:180:18:21

Oh, let's go for it. Where's he gone?

0:18:210:18:23

He's disappeared. Oh, there he is.

0:18:230:18:24

-Hello.

-Hello.

-Hello, hello.

0:18:240:18:26

-It's us again.

-Yes!

-50?

-50, yes. I can do 50.

-50, good?

0:18:260:18:31

-Shake his hand.

-'Bottoms up, Reds! Good work.'

0:18:310:18:35

Here's a picture for the album. Way-hey!

0:18:350:18:38

Meanwhile, the Blues are finally on the scent of their third buy.

0:18:410:18:45

Oh, that's pretty, isn't it? This is quite interesting.

0:18:450:18:48

There is a period known at the end of the Victorian period

0:18:480:18:51

-called the Aesthetic Movement...

-Right.

0:18:510:18:53

..where a lot of influence in the design came from Japan.

0:18:530:18:56

So you get a lot of natural foliage and animals, birds, moths, insects.

0:18:560:19:01

Have a little look at that, Joan.

0:19:010:19:04

-And if you smell it, it still smells of cologne in there.

-Can you?

0:19:040:19:07

Really? Does it unscrew or...

0:19:070:19:10

No, it just pours out.

0:19:100:19:13

-That's nice, isn't it?

-What do you think of that?

-I like it.

0:19:130:19:16

It's silver gilt inside, as well.

0:19:160:19:18

Well, you had those other scent bottles, do you remember?

0:19:180:19:21

-BOTH:

-Yes.

0:19:210:19:22

Well, one didn't have a silver top and one had a small silver top.

0:19:220:19:25

And this is all silver with a glass inside.

0:19:250:19:28

I mean, if I was being me, I might put 100 to 150 on it.

0:19:280:19:34

Do you want to ask the price, Joan?

0:19:340:19:37

I have just bought it and I would take a small profit from 175 on it.

0:19:370:19:41

DIANE: 175...

0:19:410:19:43

'A bit over Mark's estimate, then.'

0:19:430:19:46

You've got £200-odd left.

0:19:460:19:48

-This is well within your budget.

-BOTH: Yeah.

0:19:480:19:51

-And it's a really nice object.

-I think it's a nice one, too.

-I like it.

0:19:510:19:54

And it will be hallmarked inside.

0:19:540:19:56

Would you be kind, and take 170?

0:19:560:19:58

Because we do need to make a bit of a profit.

0:19:580:20:02

-Go on, then.

-Thank you!

0:20:020:20:03

VENDOR: It is a really nice piece.

0:20:030:20:05

Yeah. If you're happy with that, I'm happy with that.

0:20:050:20:07

-Yes, I'm happy with that.

-Are you sure, Joan?

-Yes, I'm sure.

0:20:070:20:10

-Well, it does make up for the two rather...

-Hey!

0:20:100:20:13

..charming items we've bought.

0:20:130:20:16

-Cheap. Cheap things.

-Did I get out of that all right?

0:20:160:20:18

-He's pushin' his luck!

-Did I get out of that?

-Yeah, you got out of that.

0:20:180:20:22

Whether you're charming or cheap, you chaps should be chuffed.

0:20:220:20:25

All three items bought and that's the shop shut for another day.

0:20:250:20:29

Well, our teams certainly have spent a penny or two, haven't they?

0:20:290:20:33

Let's check out what the Red team bought.

0:20:330:20:36

For this intriguing copper box, perhaps a bit of militaria

0:20:370:20:41

or even something to do with the railways, the Reds paid £35.

0:20:410:20:45

For the pair of hand-coloured pictures, they paid £25.

0:20:450:20:51

That was for two pictures, remember.

0:20:510:20:53

And for the German beer stein, they paid £50. Cheers!

0:20:530:20:58

-Here's some happy looking faces. Have you just finished?

-We have.

0:20:580:21:02

Lucky old you. And that's your final purchase and what did you pay for that?

0:21:020:21:06

-£50.

-£50.

-£50 for that.

-Is that your favourite piece?

0:21:060:21:10

-Which is your favourite piece?

-I know what mine is.

-What's yours?

0:21:100:21:13

Mine's this copper box that they didn't want me to buy.

0:21:130:21:16

-It's awesome.

-Is it?

-Oh, it is.

-Awesome! I love that!

0:21:160:21:20

-You wait till you see it. You'll think I've gone mad!

-Well, OK.

0:21:200:21:24

-She has, but never mind!

-I won't say a word. What about you, Maria?

0:21:240:21:28

I think mine are the two Mezzotints that we bought. The more I look at them, the more I see in them.

0:21:280:21:32

Now, how much did you spend in total?

0:21:320:21:35

-110, I think.

-Is that all?

-Yes.

-That's pretty miserable!

0:21:350:21:40

-OK, £190 of leftover lolly. Who's got that?

-I have.

-Have you?

0:21:400:21:44

-OK, lovely. I won't count it. I trust you.

-Good.

0:21:440:21:47

Going straight over to our stein-holding friend here.

0:21:470:21:50

Now, £190, what are you going to buy, Paul?

0:21:500:21:52

Well, I'm not going to buy a round of drinks, that's for sure!

0:21:520:21:56

-I won't say anything.

-Spoilsport.

-Seriously, have you got anything in mind? Bit of furniture?

0:21:560:22:00

I've been totally focused on this exercise. It's been such a riot.

0:22:000:22:04

I have no idea where I'm going after this. I'm in a tizz.

0:22:040:22:08

OK, the nation's waiting to find out what you go and buy.

0:22:080:22:11

Meanwhile, good luck, girls. I'm going to shove off and look at what the Blue team bought.

0:22:110:22:17

The Blues paid just £12 for the fruitwood tea caddy.

0:22:170:22:21

£45 for the late 19th century mahogany and brass box.

0:22:240:22:27

And finally, they gave £170

0:22:290:22:31

for the aesthetic period silver perfume flask.

0:22:310:22:34

Now, Diane, Joan, how was that shopping experience? Was it good?

0:22:370:22:41

It was very good. Really enjoyed it, yes.

0:22:410:22:43

-I bet you liked running around with Mark Stacey.

-It were lovely.

0:22:430:22:47

-I love that, don't you?

-Yeah.

-Now, Joan, tell me, which is your favourite piece?

-The silver perfume.

0:22:470:22:52

-And what about you?

-The box. Mine is the box, yes.

-OK, perfect.

0:22:520:22:57

-Which is going to bring the biggest profit?

-The box.

-The box?

-The box.

0:22:570:23:01

The box.

0:23:010:23:03

-It's all in the box, isn't it? How much did you spend?

-£227.

0:23:030:23:07

-I would like £73, please.

-There you go.

0:23:070:23:11

Thank you. There's £73. £73 goes straight to Mark Stacey.

0:23:110:23:15

What are you going to spend that on?

0:23:150:23:17

It's a decent sum of money, isn't it?

0:23:170:23:19

I think because they bought certain items,

0:23:190:23:22

I want to get a pair cos these two are a right pair.

0:23:220:23:25

-So I want to get a pair to match.

-Would they be a matching pair?

0:23:250:23:28

-They'd be matching!

-LAUGHTER

0:23:280:23:31

Anyway, there's enough of that. Now, why don't we go

0:23:310:23:34

and have a look at something that I found earlier today?

0:23:340:23:37

This very ordinary cardboard box contained all these slides.

0:23:430:23:49

Magic lantern slides,

0:23:490:23:51

the ultimate entertainment in the 19th century, before any movies.

0:23:510:23:56

So, you get your box of slides, slip one into the magic lantern,

0:23:580:24:01

which is an early form of projector, and hey presto, for people

0:24:010:24:05

who'd never viewed moving pictures before, this really was magical.

0:24:050:24:09

The problem with these things is sorting out what you've got

0:24:120:24:15

and if the dealer can't be bothered to do it,

0:24:150:24:17

all he does is to stick the lot in a cardboard box like that

0:24:170:24:21

and ask a price for it, then it's up to you to have a bit of a sort out.

0:24:210:24:25

Actually, I spotted on the top two quite rare magic lantern slides.

0:24:250:24:30

The first one is this, which is called a panorama slide.

0:24:300:24:35

And the idea with a panorama slide is that bit is shown

0:24:350:24:40

first on the screen through the projector

0:24:400:24:44

and as you tell the story, so you reveal more of the characters.

0:24:440:24:49

A man in a blue coat, a dog, a person in a red coat. Fun, isn't it?

0:24:490:24:55

Even more fun is this fellow. And these are called movement slides.

0:24:550:25:01

Imagine you've never seen a moving picture in your life

0:25:010:25:04

and all of a sudden, when the projectionist puts this slide up,

0:25:040:25:09

that mouse on the counterpane starts to move towards the geezer

0:25:090:25:16

who is in bed with his mouth open.

0:25:160:25:19

Lo and behold, the mouse finishes up by going down his throat.

0:25:190:25:26

Oh! Shock, horror!

0:25:260:25:30

And the movement slides are particularly avidly collected.

0:25:300:25:34

So why don't we have a little magic lantern slideshow?

0:25:340:25:37

This lot are fascinating.

0:25:420:25:44

Slides from all over the world.

0:25:440:25:47

The late Victorians were incredibly keen on travel

0:25:500:25:54

and set off on elaborate journeys across Europe.

0:25:540:25:58

If you were to take such a journey, why not purchase a group of slides

0:25:580:26:04

of the views along the railway journey that you'd be taking?

0:26:040:26:08

Tinted black and white slides,

0:26:080:26:11

but brought to life by this very professional shot.

0:26:110:26:15

If you were travelling further afield, perhaps to the Empire

0:26:150:26:18

in India, slides like this would be a memento of your trip.

0:26:180:26:24

Here we've got the snake charmer, squatting,

0:26:240:26:27

playing his little pipe, as a cobra comes out of the basket.

0:26:270:26:33

And also, whilst in India, why not go for a big game hunt?

0:26:330:26:37

There is the most enormous leopard I have ever seen.

0:26:370:26:42

Dead as a doornail.

0:26:420:26:43

Strung up on a pole

0:26:430:26:46

and with the surrounding crowd longing to have the cat

0:26:460:26:49

killed probably because the cat had been eating them up to that point.

0:26:490:26:55

So, we have an incredible variety of slides here.

0:26:550:26:58

An unusual cross-section of magic lantern slides, I would suggest.

0:26:580:27:04

What are they worth then? Well, you could easily have £350 worth here sitting on the table.

0:27:040:27:10

What would they cost you?

0:27:100:27:12

The lot in that tatty cardboard box could be yours for £40.

0:27:120:27:16

Now that IS magic.

0:27:160:27:19

Just like the magic we hope we're about to experience

0:27:190:27:23

over at the auction.

0:27:230:27:25

Well, we've trotted roughly 25 miles, roughly east,

0:27:330:27:37

from Stafford to the glorious town of Burton upon Trent to be

0:27:370:27:41

with Richard Winterton at Richard Winterton Auctioneers.

0:27:410:27:45

-Richard, good morning.

-Welcome!

-It's grand to be here.

0:27:450:27:49

-The first item is this copper box.

-We've had a good look at it.

0:27:490:27:53

Military, we're a bit unsure on.

0:27:530:27:56

I think we're not too far away from it in Derby where the trains

0:27:560:27:59

were built and a lot of machinery done over that way,

0:27:590:28:03

I think that's more railway, I think.

0:28:030:28:05

Yeah. It looks like a sort of portable oven.

0:28:050:28:09

And all these different ways in and out for something which is

0:28:090:28:12

-likely to be steam or water.

-Yeah, it's a nice looking thing.

0:28:120:28:16

-It's got some appeal.

-What's your estimate.

-We've gone 30 to 40.

0:28:160:28:19

-They paid £35.

-Yeah, we're fine on that.

-Good.

0:28:190:28:22

We've got a bit of a problem with the two pictures that they bought.

0:28:220:28:26

Sadly, one of them has gone AWOL. Don't know where it's gone.

0:28:260:28:30

-Hasn't disappeared from your saleroom.

-No.

0:28:300:28:33

It left the fair and it didn't arrive here.

0:28:330:28:36

So I can't explain it, but we only have the one

0:28:360:28:39

and we're going to sell the one. So, I have to ask you the question,

0:28:390:28:42

what is your estimate on this single print?

0:28:420:28:45

The colour's a bit dying on it really, when you look at it from here, but a lot going on

0:28:450:28:48

and we do have a good following for these hunting pictures.

0:28:480:28:52

We've put 20 to 30 on it and we should get that quite easily.

0:28:520:28:55

OK, that's for the single one. The team of course bought two,

0:28:550:28:58

so I think it's perfectly fair to pay them double what you get for one

0:28:580:29:04

-to put them in the same position as they were before they had the loss.

-Yeah.

0:29:040:29:08

OK, Richard. Thank you. Now, their last item is this most interesting porcelain stein.

0:29:080:29:14

-Isn't that fantastic?

-I think this is one of the most interesting things we've had for a bit.

0:29:140:29:20

-Do you?

-I love it. I do.

0:29:200:29:22

Well, for a kick-off, it's porcelain, not that stoneware stuff.

0:29:220:29:27

-So how do you rate that?

-We've gone a bit conservative.

0:29:270:29:31

-We've gone 40 to 60.

-Is that all?

-It is, but I think it's one of those that grows on you.

0:29:310:29:35

You look at it and you find a bit more on it every time.

0:29:350:29:39

-I can see us getting top end, towards the hundred.

-Really?

0:29:390:29:43

-It's got potential.

-Laidlaw found it. He paid £50.

0:29:430:29:46

-I think he's done the right thing.

-He's done very well.

0:29:460:29:48

And on that basis, they may not need their bonus buy, for a change.

0:29:480:29:51

But let's go and have a look at it anyway.

0:29:510:29:54

I love a leftover lolly moment, don't you? 110 miserable pounds you spent.

0:29:540:29:59

£190 went to your man. What did you spend it on, Paul?

0:29:590:30:03

I spent it on that strange beast.

0:30:030:30:06

-It's a candelabrum.

-It's a candle stick.

0:30:060:30:10

-It's a table one, not a wall one.

-It is.

0:30:100:30:13

It's a mad counterweighted copper and brass candlestick.

0:30:130:30:18

-Oh, it's heavy!

-That is attributable.

0:30:180:30:21

-We know who designed that.

-Really?

0:30:210:30:22

A chap by the name of Carl Deffner, who owned Metallwarenfabrik and

0:30:220:30:28

was a talented designer of modernist jugenstil, youth style, designs.

0:30:280:30:34

And this, for me, is his masterpiece.

0:30:340:30:36

-It's really funky!

-Isn't it?

-It's fabulous!

0:30:360:30:39

-So how much did you spend on it?

-I spent £55 on that.

0:30:390:30:44

You got a steal on that!

0:30:440:30:46

-What do you think it will get?

-Pairs of those at auction make 200-250.

0:30:460:30:53

And I think we can just do the maths and it's £100.

0:30:530:30:59

-It's a delight, isn't it?

-I think so.

-So well done, Paul.

0:30:590:31:02

Thanks for educating us. Now let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Paul's candlestick.

0:31:020:31:08

Lovely, look at that. Cor, isn't that lovely?

0:31:080:31:11

-I think that's another great piece.

-It sits well, doesn't it?

-Yeah.

0:31:110:31:16

Clever old Paul Laidlaw.

0:31:160:31:19

He has an eye for the unusual and he has an eye for design.

0:31:190:31:24

And this thing, where it's set up properly,

0:31:240:31:27

which should be on a mantelpiece, if this was on a mantelpiece,

0:31:270:31:31

the mantelpiece stops there, the thing sits like that.

0:31:310:31:35

All the weight's on the back end of it here.

0:31:350:31:38

You've got your candle set up there and they're extremely attractive.

0:31:380:31:42

-This team have got a good three.

-I think they've got a good expert.

0:31:420:31:46

That's the truth of the matter!

0:31:460:31:49

-Anyway, so how do you rate this thing?

-We've gone 40 to 60.

0:31:490:31:52

-I think it'll be top end of that.

-It needs to be cos Laidlaw paid £55.

0:31:520:31:56

Oh, yes. We'll get that.

0:31:560:31:57

Anyway, that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.

0:31:570:32:00

-Now, we all know about fruitwood tea caddies.

-We certainly do.

0:32:000:32:04

People who can't afford the originals, they do buy these

0:32:040:32:07

and they are popular.

0:32:070:32:09

-It's going to make 10 or £20 all day long.

-£12 paid.

0:32:090:32:14

They should get away with that. What about that folding box, Rich?

0:32:140:32:17

This is great. Good quality all the way round.

0:32:170:32:20

-Been a bit scrubbed.

-You're going to be when you get on a bit.

0:32:200:32:25

You're going to get a bit scrubbed!

0:32:250:32:27

-All right. How much?

-We've put 30 to 40.

-£45 paid.

-Yeah, again, good.

0:32:270:32:32

Sort of on the money. Now their last item is the investment.

0:32:320:32:35

-£170 was paid for that scent bottle.

-Which has ruined it, for me.

0:32:350:32:40

-What do you mean "ruined it"?

-It's too expensive.

-Is it?

-Yeah.

-What's your estimate?

0:32:400:32:44

-We've gone 50 to 80.

-As a bit of a tease.

-Might get a hundred.

0:32:440:32:47

-If we get 170, I think you might need the bargain...

-Do you reckon?

-Yeah.

0:32:470:32:52

Do you want to do this job then? Why don't you introduce the bonus buy?

0:32:520:32:56

Go on, you have a go.

0:32:560:32:58

We'll have the bonus buy because I think they'll need it.

0:32:580:33:01

Here you go!

0:33:010:33:02

-Diane, Joan, this is the moment. You spent a magnificent 227.

-We did.

0:33:040:33:08

And you gave the boy £73. Let's see, Mark. I'll help you with that.

0:33:080:33:14

-There we go. £73.

-Ooh!

-Right.

0:33:140:33:17

Now, I had a bit of a pair on the day, Tim.

0:33:170:33:20

-I thought I ought to really try and get a pair for you.

-Thank you.

-They're Royal Worcester porcelain.

0:33:200:33:25

They're 20th century, but they've been drilled as well,

0:33:250:33:28

so you can actually convert them into lamps.

0:33:280:33:31

-So, how much did you pay for them?

-I spent the entire £73.

-Did you?

0:33:310:33:36

Yeah, I've got nothing left.

0:33:360:33:38

-Really?

-Are you shocked?

-Yes.

-Yes, we are.

0:33:380:33:41

-They look classy though. They do look classy.

-They look classy.

0:33:410:33:44

I think you've hit it on the head there, Diane. I really do.

0:33:440:33:47

-They look classy.

-Yeah, they do.

-And that's cos they're Adam style.

0:33:470:33:51

So they've taken the Adam style and repeated it like 100 years after it

0:33:510:33:55

first came out and then here we are, 100 years later,

0:33:550:33:58

-looking at the same thing.

-I do like those.

-You like them?

0:33:580:34:00

Well, we've got a classy pair for a classy pair.

0:34:000:34:04

OK, it seems to be a great hit here, Mark.

0:34:040:34:06

Let's find out from the auctioneer whether he's

0:34:060:34:09

so struck by these candlesticks. Thank you.

0:34:090:34:12

Well, they don't come whiter than that, Rich!

0:34:120:34:16

These are great. 110, 115, 120 years old.

0:34:160:34:19

And they're as modern now as they were when they were made.

0:34:190:34:22

-Exactly.

-That's what they want now is that kind of modern look.

0:34:220:34:24

-Fantastic.

-What is your estimate?

-We've gone 50 to 80, make top end all day long.

0:34:240:34:30

Well, they need to cos Mark Stacey paid £73.

0:34:300:34:32

That's a good buy, that's fine.

0:34:320:34:34

-You'll get him a profit on that?

-I think they might need them.

-Yes.

0:34:340:34:40

-What we need next is you...

-Yeah. Looking forward to it.

0:34:400:34:44

..on the rostrum. Thank you very much, Richard.

0:34:440:34:47

Well, I can tell you this sale room's absolutely jam-packed with folk, which is a good sign.

0:34:530:34:58

Now, your first item, we don't really know what it is, if I'm being perfectly frank.

0:34:580:35:02

But some cunning monkey on our staff has found a similar

0:35:020:35:06

one on site in America,

0:35:060:35:08

which is described as being a bacteriological cabinet.

0:35:080:35:13

And it's an oddball thing.

0:35:130:35:15

With its jacket of hot water around it.

0:35:150:35:19

It's a mystery piece.

0:35:190:35:21

Anyway, you paid £35. His estimate is £30-£40.

0:35:210:35:24

He doesn't really know what it is either, so anything could happen.

0:35:240:35:28

Anyway, hand-tinted aquatint, sadly, one of which went AWOL.

0:35:280:35:34

Yes, we have a loss there.

0:35:340:35:36

His estimate is £20-£30 on one picture,

0:35:360:35:39

so what we're proposing to do is to sell that,

0:35:390:35:42

and double whatever it made.

0:35:420:35:45

And your last item is the porcelain stein.

0:35:450:35:49

Such interesting scenes, Paul.

0:35:490:35:51

Great thing, that. I love it.

0:35:510:35:54

Anyway, your first item

0:35:540:35:55

is the copper warmer, whatever it is, and here it comes.

0:35:550:35:58

Commissioned bids with me, I'm £20 bid.

0:35:580:36:01

And £25, £30, £35, £40,

0:36:010:36:04

£45, £50, 55, £60 in the room.

0:36:040:36:08

£60 in the room. 65.

0:36:080:36:11

They don't know what it is, but they want it.

0:36:110:36:14

-£70, sir?

-Look at that.

-Yep, £70.

0:36:140:36:17

On my left at £70.

0:36:170:36:19

Sold, at 70!

0:36:190:36:21

£70, you double your money. Plus £35.

0:36:210:36:25

Well done, Paul, that is so good.

0:36:250:36:27

Now, the surviving print.

0:36:270:36:29

A bit of interest on this. We're £5, £8,

0:36:290:36:32

£8 I'm bid, sitting on my own here at £8,

0:36:320:36:35

-needs a little commission at £8.

-No?

0:36:350:36:37

Anyone want to give me £10?

0:36:370:36:39

£10 in the room at the back. Back of the room at £10.

0:36:390:36:42

Are we all finished? It's sold.

0:36:420:36:45

Sold for £10, we're going to double it,

0:36:450:36:49

so we've sold it for £10, we pay the compensation.

0:36:490:36:52

That means you have sold for £20.

0:36:520:36:56

£20. You are minus £5.

0:36:560:36:57

Now, here comes the porcelain stein.

0:36:570:36:59

Quite a lot of interest is on the book. We start at £70.

0:36:590:37:03

70, 80, 90, 100, 10, 20, 30.

0:37:030:37:07

On my book at 130.

0:37:080:37:10

130, 130.

0:37:100:37:13

At £130, that means you are plus 80.

0:37:130:37:17

-You have £80 profit on the stein!

-That's amazing.

0:37:170:37:22

You are 115 less the five, you are £110 up.

0:37:220:37:26

And now, what about the candlestick? What are you going to do?

0:37:260:37:30

-We're going for it.

-You're going to do it?

0:37:300:37:33

£55 paid, yes? You happy for that?

0:37:330:37:36

You're going with it, and here it comes.

0:37:360:37:39

A lot of interest, again, on this lot.

0:37:390:37:41

We are in at £40.

0:37:410:37:43

£40, I'm bid. £40,

0:37:430:37:45

45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90,

0:37:450:37:48

£90, with me at 90.

0:37:480:37:51

-£90, on commission at £90.

-Look at that!

0:37:510:37:54

We are sold, then, at £90.

0:37:540:37:57

£90, that is brilliant, isn't it?

0:37:570:38:01

Plus £35 on that.

0:38:010:38:04

Plus £35 on that means you are plus £145, girls.

0:38:050:38:10

Oh, my God!

0:38:100:38:12

That is unbelievable, isn't it?

0:38:120:38:14

You are £145 up.

0:38:140:38:16

I think that man deserves a hug, don't you? I think he does.

0:38:160:38:21

-He does! Well done!

-Well done.

0:38:210:38:23

I tell you, this saleroom is humming today.

0:38:320:38:35

We want to hum along.

0:38:350:38:36

Well, it needs to hum along. Listen, anyway,

0:38:360:38:38

you paid £12 for your tea caddy.

0:38:380:38:40

He thinks it's very nice, about £10-£20,

0:38:400:38:42

so that's all right. You paid £45 for your cigar, cigarette box,

0:38:420:38:48

he reckons it's worth £30-£40, so you are in the frame, there,

0:38:480:38:52

and your perfume bottle, he doesn't think is worth anything like £170.

0:38:520:38:59

-Otherwise, you've got the Worcester candlesticks to fall back on, haven't you?

-Yes, sure.

0:38:590:39:02

Right, which would be painful! Anyway!

0:39:020:39:05

First up is the tea caddy. Here we go.

0:39:050:39:07

£2. Little tea caddy. Should be, all day long.

0:39:070:39:10

£2, £3, £4, £5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

0:39:100:39:15

£10 on my right. The lady at £10.

0:39:150:39:18

£12. At the very back.

0:39:180:39:20

Haven't got you in the middle, madam. At £12, I'm bid.

0:39:200:39:23

God, this is a struggle.

0:39:230:39:24

Right at the very back at £12, all done, sold, then, at £12.

0:39:240:39:29

Yes, wiped its face, that's perfect.

0:39:290:39:32

No profit, no loss, no pain, no shame. Now, here comes your box.

0:39:320:39:36

Commissioned bids on my book at £20.

0:39:360:39:38

£20 I'm bid, at £20 I'm bid, at 22.

0:39:380:39:41

24, 26, 28, £30,

0:39:410:39:44

35, 35 I'm bid, far right at 35. £40, come back again. At £40.

0:39:440:39:50

At £40, on my left at £40, sold, then, at 40.

0:39:500:39:55

Oh, bad luck. Just £5 light. Nothing! Barely a sheet of Bronco.

0:39:550:40:01

Anyway, £40. Minus five. Now, the perfume bottle.

0:40:010:40:06

It is engraved. 1882. Again, a bit of interest on the book.

0:40:060:40:11

We're in at £60. 60. 5. 70. 5.

0:40:110:40:15

80. 5. 90. 100.

0:40:150:40:17

At 100, at 100. At £100, all finished. We are sold, £100.

0:40:170:40:24

£100, that's minus 70. That means, girls, overall you're minus £75.

0:40:240:40:29

-What are you going to do? Are you going to go with these Worcester candlesticks?

-Yes.

0:40:290:40:33

You're going to risk it for a biscuit?

0:40:330:40:35

-Yes.

-Yes.

-I mean, you're already well down the Suwannee here.

0:40:350:40:38

-With this crowd, maybe, just maybe, you'll get lucky.

-Let's hope so.

0:40:390:40:43

Anyway, the die is cast, they're coming up now and here we go.

0:40:430:40:46

The pair now, the Royal Worcester lamp bases there.

0:40:460:40:49

Bit of interest on these. £20, I'm bid.

0:40:490:40:51

25. 30. 5. 40. 5. 50. 5.

0:40:510:40:56

60. 5. 70. 5. 80. 5.

0:40:560:41:01

Go on!

0:41:010:41:03

At £80, all done at £80.

0:41:030:41:07

-Well done.

-Yes. Well done, Mark.

-You made a profit of £7.

0:41:070:41:10

Well, it's nice to see a profit somewhere, isn't it?

0:41:100:41:15

-Anyway, you are minus £68.

-Oh, dear.

0:41:150:41:20

Minus 68 is quite a big number, but you never know,

0:41:200:41:22

-it might be a winning score. Don't say a word to the Reds, all right?

-We won't.

-Thank you very much.

0:41:220:41:26

Well, well, well.

0:41:340:41:35

How can two teams who've shopped in the same place with the same

0:41:350:41:41

amount of money be so poles apart?

0:41:410:41:45

Because the team that's running up by a mile today are the Blues.

0:41:450:41:50

-Oh!

-Oh!

0:41:500:41:51

Minus £68. I mean, that's a number, isn't it?

0:41:510:41:55

-It started out all right with a washed face.

-Yes.

0:41:550:41:59

I thought you stood an average chance until you got

0:41:590:42:02

to your perfume flask and then there was a serious smell about.

0:42:020:42:05

Anyway, overall, minus 68. It's not so hot.

0:42:050:42:09

-We thought that perfume would do well.

-I know. Well, it let you down.

0:42:090:42:12

-It did.

-But the thing is, have you had fun?

-We've had fun, yes.

0:42:120:42:15

We've had fun having you on the programme.

0:42:150:42:18

But today, I'm actually going to dosh out £145 of money.

0:42:180:42:23

-THEY ALL GASP

-£145!

0:42:230:42:26

There you go, Jan. £80 profit on that beer stein.

0:42:260:42:31

£35 profit on your temperature humidity testing
