0:00:07 > 0:00:09We're in lovely Lincoln today
0:00:09 > 0:00:13where our terrific teams are hoping to find the very best bargains
0:00:13 > 0:00:16that the Lincolnshire Showground has to offer.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18So, let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:44 > 0:00:48We're at the Lincolnshire Antiques and Home Show today
0:00:48 > 0:00:52where each of our teams have £300 and an hour to shop
0:00:52 > 0:00:54for their three bargains.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57So let's have a quick squint at what's coming up.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02On today's show the Reds get an offer they just can't refuse...
0:01:02 > 0:01:06Grab that man's hand before he changes his mind!
0:01:06 > 0:01:08With a hat like that, we can't say no!
0:01:08 > 0:01:09Cheers. Thank you.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13..whilst the Blues get an offer they ought to refuse.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- He's offering us the drinks cabinet for nothing.- Is it cheap enough?
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Well, it's not likely to make a loss, is it?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Is it a bargain?- It's ghastly!
0:01:23 > 0:01:26First up, let's meet our teams.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31Well, on today's show we've got two teams of friends.
0:01:31 > 0:01:37For the Reds we've got Tom and Matt, and for the Blues we've got Sally and June. Hello, everyone.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- Hello.- Hello. Lovely to see you. Now, Tom, how did you two meet?
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Me and Matt met at a student group at church. We're both students, both go to the same church.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48And from there we've become like really close friends, like brothers,
0:01:48 > 0:01:53- and it's just grown from there. - And you're studying at the University of Lincoln?- Yeah.- Yeah?
0:01:53 > 0:01:57- What are you studying?- I'm studying journalism.- So you're digging around for scandal?
0:01:57 > 0:02:03- All the time. All the time. - And, Matt, is your university life as productive?
0:02:03 > 0:02:07Er, yes, I go to the teaching university in Lincoln,
0:02:07 > 0:02:11- so I'm training to be a primary school teacher.- What sort of things will you be going for, Tom?
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Well, I actually got a tip-off from one of the local jewellers,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16I was buying a present for a friend of mine and we got her
0:02:16 > 0:02:19a vintage silver locket, and we went and he cleaned it up for us,
0:02:19 > 0:02:24and he said vintage silver's really in at the moment, so I thought, "Store that up there!" Ready to go!
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Well, you never know what you're going to find. And good luck, chaps.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- Great.- Thank you.- Now, Sally, tell me, how did you two girls meet?
0:02:31 > 0:02:35Well, we met at a dog-training club about 25 years ago.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38Have you become quite professional with your dog training?
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Well, I wouldn't say professional. It's more of a hobby, but...
0:02:41 > 0:02:46- Do you breed them? - Yes, we've bred together. We've bred about five or six litters.
0:02:46 > 0:02:51- And you do this to Crufts level, don't you?- Yes, we do. We try!
0:02:51 > 0:02:56- Mmm.- Yeah. - Now, June, you're retired now, but you won a small business award.
0:02:56 > 0:03:02Well, I won a small business award when I was working as a distributor for pet foods,
0:03:02 > 0:03:07- and over a period of years built up from Lincolnshire to cover eight and a half counties.- Did you?
0:03:07 > 0:03:13Which meant that I needed to employ staff and that really is what brought me the small business award
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- for creating jobs in Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire.- How brilliant!
0:03:17 > 0:03:22- So you're an acute businesswoman. Are you going to be in charge of the money today?- Oh, no!
0:03:22 > 0:03:26- You're not?- Oh, no.- Going to be a joint exercise, this, is it? - I think so.- Yes.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28And what's the strategy as to what you might buy?
0:03:28 > 0:03:34Well, I think, really, whatever we buy, it's got to be genuine antique, like Sally and me.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39It's got to be in perfect working order - like Sally and me -
0:03:39 > 0:03:42- and worth every penny we spend on it...- OK.- ..like Sally and me.
0:03:42 > 0:03:47- That's fair enough. That's a strategy.- That's it.- That's a mission statement, I'd say!
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Now, the money moment. Here's your £300.- Thank you.- £300 apiece.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!
0:03:53 > 0:03:56- And very, very good luck.- Thank you.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Girls versus boys, eh? What fun!
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Going into battle today for the Reds, it's Anita Manning,
0:04:06 > 0:04:08our iron lady!
0:04:08 > 0:04:12And eager to net a profit for the Blues is Charlie Ross.
0:04:21 > 0:04:26Here we are in Lincoln Showground. It's a beautiful, beautiful day!
0:04:26 > 0:04:30We've got tons and tons of money, so what do you want to buy?
0:04:30 > 0:04:34- I don't know, whatever takes our fancy, really. Have a look round. - Go for it.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Sally. Which is Sally?- I'm Sally. - And you are?- I'm June.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41- My wife's called Sally.- Wow! - And your mistress, June!
0:04:41 > 0:04:43How dare you?
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Good Lord! My wife might be watching.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49My brave, brave boys! Let's go!
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Looks like the Reds are set on world domination!
0:05:05 > 0:05:07It looks really cool, doesn't it?
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- What have you got, guys? - We've got a globe.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13It looks pretty awesome.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17From a teacher's perspective, I think it looks amazing.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21It's got loads of writing on it as well. It's not even English, I don't think.
0:05:21 > 0:05:22ANITA LAUGHS
0:05:22 > 0:05:26I have a feeling that that might be quite an expensive one.
0:05:26 > 0:05:30I think our dealer's in there. You could maybe go in and ask him.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32OK. Shall we do it? Nice and quick.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Expect to pay the earth for it, chaps.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Let's see what those Blues are composing.
0:05:42 > 0:05:49- Who is that?- Wagner. You know, the Ring and all that. - Wagner, yeah, The Ring Cycle.- Yes.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51- Yes. - THEY SING
0:05:51 > 0:05:52- Absolutely.- Yeah.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56- It's a Parian figure of Wagner. - What's it made of?
0:05:56 > 0:06:02Parian ware. It's an unglazed porcelaneous ware.
0:06:02 > 0:06:07I think if it were 19th century, it would have the maker's name,
0:06:07 > 0:06:09someone like Copeland on the bottom of it,
0:06:09 > 0:06:11and if you look very carefully...
0:06:11 > 0:06:13- the head's been off.- Oh.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15So it really is bust, then?
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Well spotted. It's a good job we've got you, then.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21But, honestly, I'm not sure if Wagner goes down well in Lincolnshire.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25- No, I shouldn't think Wagner's been performed very often in Lincolnshire.- Not very often.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27He's got to go back on the table, then.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30That's it, ladies. Don't lose your head!
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Now, have those Reds been brought down to earth yet?
0:06:39 > 0:06:41OK, guys?
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Slightly out the budget.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- £2,000.- £2,000?- Yeah.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47I think we're going to have to forget it,
0:06:47 > 0:06:52- because you're not going to get him down from 2,000 to 200!- No.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Obviously it's such a good item, obviously we've got a good eye for it.
0:06:55 > 0:07:00- You've got great taste! So well done on that, but hard luck. - Right, the next one.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02On to the next one indeed, chaps.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13- Do you know what I like?- That. - I like this.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17- I think this is absolutely charming. - That is sweet.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20My first reaction is how old is it? It's a miniature dresser.
0:07:20 > 0:07:25Now, it's got rather a French influence to the doors on the bottom.
0:07:25 > 0:07:32But unlike a lot of miniature furniture, that could be used for display purposes
0:07:32 > 0:07:35with some little miniature cups and saucers on it, possibly.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37It's definitely got age.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42That's definitely 1880, 1890.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44It wouldn't go in my doll's house.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46No, no, it's not that miniature!
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- But I think it's a nice thing. - I like the shape of the... - Beautifully shaped.- Yeah.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54- OK, so are we going to move on? Nothing there you want to buy?- No.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- No, I think we'll move on.- Carry on.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Keep calm and carry on.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Now, Anita seems to have charmed her Reds.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Oh, could this possibly be a wee Scottish thing?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Just like me!
0:08:16 > 0:08:18That's nice. Hallmarked silver.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Is it a bit girly for you?
0:08:20 > 0:08:26- No.- If it sells, then we're open to anything.- You like it?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28How about £10 if you're inspired by it?
0:08:28 > 0:08:31- £10? - Yeah, you can have a bit of chance.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Grab that man's hand before he changes his mind!
0:08:34 > 0:08:36With a hat like that, we can't say no!
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Cheers. Thank you.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Oh, that's great!
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Absolutely smashing!
0:08:41 > 0:08:43You're very welcome.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Come here and give us a kiss! I'm coming round there.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Who's doing the charming now, eh, Anita?
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- Do you know what it is, boys? - No, but you're going to explain it to us, I hope.- Looks like a brooch.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55It's a wee brooch, it's a wee brooch.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00It's a piece of silver with Cairngorms here.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03- That's a lovely wee brooch. So we've got that at £10?- Yes, ma'am.
0:09:03 > 0:09:08Boys, what a start! That's a...that...that is a winner!
0:09:08 > 0:09:09That is a winner!
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Emphatic early statement!
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Well done!
0:09:13 > 0:09:18The Reds have bagged their first item, and it sounds like the Blues are really on the hunt!
0:09:18 > 0:09:21PARP!
0:09:21 > 0:09:24What have you got that's going to make us money, then?
0:09:24 > 0:09:27- Eh?- What have you got? - What do you want?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29What do you suggest?
0:09:29 > 0:09:31Something bronze? MAN: There's loads of things!
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Well, yes, but...- Hang on, girls, I've got an idea here.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- Yeah, yeah. How much for this lot? - Five.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40I'd take it to the scrap yard and get more than that!
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Well, you don't know, you haven't given me a price yet!
0:09:42 > 0:09:47- These are nice.- Well, I quite like them, but there was no price on them. I think he's going to do me.
0:09:47 > 0:09:52- They're a pair.- They're very heavy. - £30 for the pair. That's a bargain.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Actually, they're not... I was going to say they haven't got much age, but they've got a little bit of age.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- Yeah, they have. - They were made on Thursday!
0:09:58 > 0:10:01- Yeah!- A water jug and a coffee pot.
0:10:01 > 0:10:05Looks more like a Friday afternoon job to me.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Have some respect, team!
0:10:07 > 0:10:12- How can you put up with a lady that can be so rude at your stall? - I know, it's terrible.
0:10:12 > 0:10:1420 quid?
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Give us your money!
0:10:15 > 0:10:19- Can I give a...?- You can do anything you like, darling. Just go for it.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- I've gone for it.- Have you? Did you shake hands?- I shook his hand.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Well, I had my eyes closed. One each, girls.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28What else have you got... that you're giving away?
0:10:29 > 0:10:33She's on fire now, isn't she? She is motoring!
0:10:33 > 0:10:35These Blues are open to anything!
0:10:41 > 0:10:46The Reds, meanwhile, are being more considered in their approach.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48What are you looking for, guys?
0:10:48 > 0:10:51I don't know, we're sort of interested in, like, a timepiece.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56We were looking at the pocket watch on there, but it doesn't have the hands on it.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00- Don't buy a pocket watch with no hands.- No, we looked at it and walked away.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- That's the protective case. - It's a railway watch?
0:11:04 > 0:11:06- Yes.- Does it press your buttons, boys?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- I think it's all right. - I like the look of it.
0:11:08 > 0:11:13- Will it make a profit at auction? - Well, that's the question. That's the secret of the black magic.
0:11:13 > 0:11:18- Who knows? So maybe you should keep that in mind, guys.- Yeah. - You know where it is.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21And it's better buying a watch with hands...
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Unless of course you've got time on your hands to restore it.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26- Forward, boys, go that way!- Onward!
0:11:33 > 0:11:36It seems the Blues are on a quest for rings.
0:11:36 > 0:11:43- Ooh, look at that!- What have you got here?- They're pretty. - A collection of rings.- Rings, yeah!
0:11:43 > 0:11:47Is that a diamond? I don't think so. Let's have a look. Look at this.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- I like those.- Look at this! Look at this! Look at this!
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Oh, look, now, there's good!
0:11:54 > 0:11:57All right, we've got a collection of rings. That's 9-carat gold.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01That's got a little pearl, and I think that's 9-carat gold.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03- Hello, sir!- Hello.
0:12:03 > 0:12:04How much are your three rings?
0:12:04 > 0:12:07Do you want all three or do you want them individually?
0:12:07 > 0:12:12- Price on all three just to... - All three can be 75.
0:12:12 > 0:12:16- You can always make an offer. - Yeah, I know. Well, I'll tell you what I think they'll make, girls.
0:12:16 > 0:12:20- Yeah?- I would sell all three together as one lot.- Yeah.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25They'll make £60-£70, I reckon, at auction, the three of them.
0:12:25 > 0:12:31- Ta-ra!- Minus your commission. So you'd have to buy them for £40, and you would make a profit, I think.
0:12:31 > 0:12:35- You'll struggle to buy them off me for £40, unfortunately. - We would, wouldn't we?- Yeah.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37Let's not resort to violence, team!
0:12:37 > 0:12:40- Best deal, £50 the three. - £50 the three.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44- I must say...- 49?- No. - No, no, don't be silly!
0:12:44 > 0:12:49How dare you? You'll antagonise him and he'll say, "Will you go?"
0:12:49 > 0:12:53- I think we ought to go for it, Sally. - Yeah, actually yes.- Girls?
0:12:53 > 0:12:56- We've got it.- You and Karl are at one with one another.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58Thank you! We have our second purchase.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02- Yeah.- And we've got your name in case it doesn't make a profit.
0:13:02 > 0:13:07- You wouldn't want these two after you, I can tell you, Karl! - Me and everybody else!- No, no.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09That's lovely.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12That is lovely! And that is also 40 minutes gone.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19- What is that?- Quite interesting. - What is it?
0:13:19 > 0:13:21- It's an inkwell.- Right.- OK.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25- Meant to be a hat, is it?- Uh-huh. It's a little novelty thing.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28- £50.- Expensive novelty.
0:13:28 > 0:13:34Really this is probably carved from the Black Forest, a carving from that area.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37It's greatly... You know, it's sought after.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40- But I want you to get something that you like.- Yeah.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41Not impressed, fellas?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Can the Blues figure it out for themselves?
0:13:50 > 0:13:52- What is it?- I don't know.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56- I think... Oh, it doesn't work. - Oh, does it not work?
0:13:56 > 0:13:58- Oh!- It does work! - MUSIC BOX PLAYS
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- Charlie!- Hello, girls. What have they found?
0:14:02 > 0:14:06- Do you like it?- It's OK. - I told you you'd find the piece of your dreams here.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08That's the piece of my dreams!
0:14:08 > 0:14:10It's probably a prince in disguise.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- Probably a reproduction. - Beatrix Potter.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16- And it works.- It's working.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20And I don't think there's any damage.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28What do you think?
0:14:28 > 0:14:29It's lovely...
0:14:29 > 0:14:32I think that's a no, don't you?
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Let's have a look. Who made it? That's the key.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Oh, my goodness me! "Plays the tune Waltz Of The Flowers".
0:14:41 > 0:14:45- May I be honest? Do I know you well enough...?- Are you mocking me?
0:14:45 > 0:14:49No, no, I wouldn't ever mock you! Do I know you well enough to be honest?
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Yeah.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- I think there's only one word to describe this.- Go ahead.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Ghastly!
0:14:55 > 0:14:58I could think of a few more.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01- Right.- I mean, I don't know how much it is.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04What I would do is take off the label that says Made in Malaysia,
0:15:04 > 0:15:06which is...
0:15:06 > 0:15:11which is delicately stuck on to this piece of ply on the bottom of it.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15To say that this is later than Georgian would be accurate.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20How much is this, sir?
0:15:20 > 0:15:24- 50p?- £15.- Oh, £15...? I thought he said 50p.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Well, I think you could only lose 15 quid if you bought it.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33A lifetime's friendship is on the line here if you buy that!
0:15:33 > 0:15:38- I'm getting concerned about time, girls.- Yeah.- We've got about five minutes left. OK, girls?- Yeah.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Thank you very much, sir. Lovely, lovely lot.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Five minutes left. Hop to it, Blues!
0:15:51 > 0:15:56With only one item bought, the Reds really do need to get a move on!
0:15:56 > 0:15:59I wonder if you would be interested in these.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01These are... they're very nice frames,
0:16:01 > 0:16:07but they're also showing us photographs of two people, probably late 19th century.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11- Yeah.- Is that of any interest to you?
0:16:11 > 0:16:12I mean, they look quite nice.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16- He's a handsome chap, isn't he? - Uh-huh. A good-looking guy!- Yeah.
0:16:16 > 0:16:20- How much are they? - They're £120 for the pair.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24What you've got - a brass metal
0:16:24 > 0:16:27and we have a little bit of coloured enamelling here.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31- And having the pair is good. - Yeah. The two together.
0:16:31 > 0:16:32Excuse me?
0:16:32 > 0:16:38- Hello, hello.- Hi. - What is the best...? - I'll do them for 100 the pair.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40100?
0:16:40 > 0:16:41- Yeah.- OK.- Great.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Fantastic.- Thank you.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Crikey, you could have haggled a bit harder, Reds!
0:16:45 > 0:16:48You've got to shake the woman's hand now.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51- Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:16:51 > 0:16:52Cheers.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Still, that's two down, one to go. But hurry!
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Two minutes!
0:16:58 > 0:17:00There's a nice drinks cabinet here, ladies.
0:17:00 > 0:17:04- There's a nice drinks cabinet, ladies. Quick!- Where?
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Cor! This Bargain Hunting lark is thirsty work, girls.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- Charlie!- We're running out of time. Where was your drinks cabinet?
0:17:14 > 0:17:18- Oh, for goodness' sake! - Oh, Blimey O'Reilly!
0:17:18 > 0:17:20It's absolutely ghastly!
0:17:20 > 0:17:23How dare you get me round to look at that?
0:17:23 > 0:17:25I've never seen anything so awful.
0:17:25 > 0:17:30- You've got your own lemon squeezer. - I'll give you your own lemon squeezer!
0:17:30 > 0:17:34We've got to buy something, Charlie! We've got about a minute and a half left.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37But the Reds think they've got all the time in the world.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39What do you think?
0:17:39 > 0:17:43It makes you look at all the different information. There's a lot of things to look at,
0:17:43 > 0:17:49- which is lovely.- One of the interesting things about globes is, depending on when they were made,
0:17:49 > 0:17:55you know, countries change names and so on. I think people find that fascinating as well.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57- Yeah, I love it, I love it. - Oh, he's fallen in love with it.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- I love it, it's fantastic.- Yeah.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05Let's have a look. We've got a maker's label on it which is good.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10It's Rand McNally. It was made in the USA. So it's an American one.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Anita Manning saves the world!
0:18:16 > 0:18:22- Shall we find out the price first and then see if you think it's worth anywhere near it.- Yeah.- OK.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Hello! Is there a dealer here?
0:18:24 > 0:18:26- Yes!- Hello, darling!
0:18:26 > 0:18:27Hello!
0:18:29 > 0:18:30It's 25 quid.
0:18:30 > 0:18:3125 quid?
0:18:31 > 0:18:34- So what's your very, very, very best price for that?- 35.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36- 35.- 35?
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Wrong direction, Reds!
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- He's not very good at this!- Not a good start, is it? How about £20?
0:18:43 > 0:18:48- £20's all right.- £20 and the world's your oyster!- Let's do it! Go for it.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Thank you, sir. £20, that's a deal.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Yeah, good boy!
0:18:52 > 0:18:55You were rubbish at it at the beginning, but you got better.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Thank you very much!
0:18:57 > 0:18:59Well, that's an honest appraisal.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Have the Blues called time on the drinks cabinet?
0:19:07 > 0:19:08Mr Ross...
0:19:08 > 0:19:12I could give you that drinks cabinet for free.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14You've got to take it with you right now.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17How's that for you?
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Did you hear that, girls?
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- He's offering us the drinks cabinet for nothing.- Is it cheap enough?
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Well, it's not likely to make a loss, is it?
0:19:24 > 0:19:27- Is it a bargain?- It's ghastly!
0:19:27 > 0:19:29It's absolutely terrible!
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Now, now, Charlie!
0:19:31 > 0:19:33- But the price isn't. - The price is quite good.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36It's wonderful! It's got a lemon squeezer.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39Lemon squeezer, cocktail sticks...
0:19:39 > 0:19:43The mirror's got to be worth a fiver!
0:19:43 > 0:19:47This is one of the most repulsive things I have ever seen in my life.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51- But we're not allowed to be given things. It would be cheating!- Aw!
0:19:51 > 0:19:55- So I've got a solution, girls. - Right, let's hear it, Charlie!
0:19:55 > 0:19:58If he'll take nothing, he'll presumably take a pound.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01This is the sort of thinking I like!
0:20:01 > 0:20:05- Would you take a pound for this, sir?- A pound of your money?- Yes. - Or theirs?- Ours.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07OK, I'll do that.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Oh, what a gent.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12And I'll stick that pound in the charity box.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16I'll tell you where I'll stick your drinks cabinet!
0:20:16 > 0:20:20It's a wonderful, wonderful piece of stuff. What more do you want?
0:20:20 > 0:20:22We've got to take it with us, haven't we?
0:20:22 > 0:20:25- Come on, girls!- It'll keep the fire alight for hours!
0:20:25 > 0:20:29# Keep the home fires burning... #
0:20:29 > 0:20:34CHARLIE CONTINUES HUMMING THE TUNE
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Bye.- Bye-bye. And thank you! - Careful!
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Thank you very much!
0:20:39 > 0:20:42If it doesn't sell, I'm coming back for my quid!
0:20:42 > 0:20:44- MAN:- OK, no probs!
0:20:44 > 0:20:45With the drinks cabinet!
0:20:51 > 0:20:55How much shopping time remains here in Lincolnshire? Actually, not a sausage!
0:20:55 > 0:20:58Let's have a quick squint at what the Red Team served up.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01At only £10, they pinned their fortune
0:21:01 > 0:21:03on the Cairngorm brooch.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10They picked up the cold-painted photo frame for a handsome £100.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13And finally the terrestrial globe
0:21:13 > 0:21:16for a celestial £20.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20- Anyway, chaps, how much did you spend all round?- 130.- You spent 130?
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- I'd like £170 of leftover lolly, please.- Here you go.- Thank you.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27There we go, Anita. God bless you. What are you going to spend the 170 on?
0:21:27 > 0:21:32I've got lots of money there, Tim, but time is of the essence.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Uh-oh! One of Anita's clues!
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Anyway, good luck, Anita.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Meanwhile why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought, eh?
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Is a profit brewing for the coffee pot and hot water jug at just £20?
0:21:47 > 0:21:51They bought three 9-carat gold dress rings for a solid £50.
0:21:51 > 0:21:56And lastly they were gifted a cocktail cabinet for just £1.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Girls, you spent a miserable amount of money. How much was it?
0:21:59 > 0:22:01- It was £71.- £71!
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- On three items.- Yes.
0:22:04 > 0:22:09OK. Now, I'd like £129 of leftover lolly, please, Sal. Thank you.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Very nice. All that cash.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Charles Ross, you are responsible for a lot nowadays.
0:22:15 > 0:22:19In this case, take that pile of dough and go forth and multiply!
0:22:19 > 0:22:20Thank you. I will.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23I might buy something with a semblance of quality!
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Lincoln Fair is jam-packed full of interest and intrigue,
0:22:29 > 0:22:33but let me show you something I found the last time I was here.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Well, you find some funny old things in these places, don't you?
0:22:44 > 0:22:45Try that one on for size.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48That is something called a cupping glass.
0:22:48 > 0:22:54It's a piece of crudely blown glass that has a medical application.
0:22:54 > 0:22:59And I would date this thing to 1800, 1820, something like that.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00But what would you do with it?
0:23:00 > 0:23:05Well, the medic would apply some grease on this bottom edge.
0:23:05 > 0:23:12He'd then heat up this glass nipple at the other end, get it nice and warm,
0:23:12 > 0:23:15and then apply it to your skin.
0:23:15 > 0:23:21The idea being that as the glass cools down, it creates a vacuum
0:23:21 > 0:23:25which would literally suck the surface of that section of skin.
0:23:25 > 0:23:32So if you has a nasty in-growing hair or a boil that was looking towards being lanced,
0:23:32 > 0:23:40or sometimes simply to create an irritated weal into which blood would flow,
0:23:40 > 0:23:47which, in Victorian medical terms, you'd do to remove the pain from somewhere else.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50A kind of cross-association of pain.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54Create a pain somewhere and reduce a pain in another part of the body.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58Weird, oddball, medically associated
0:23:58 > 0:24:02and, to a collector, apparently worth £9.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Not too gruesome.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Otherwise today I've discovered in the fair this fellow,
0:24:09 > 0:24:13which is also medical. And if you're having your lunch at this precise moment
0:24:13 > 0:24:16and about to take a great bite out of something meaty,
0:24:16 > 0:24:20I suggest you avert your eyes.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Oh! Look at that!
0:24:24 > 0:24:27How horrible is that!
0:24:27 > 0:24:29Here we've got a patient
0:24:29 > 0:24:31that's had the most beastly
0:24:31 > 0:24:34and ghastly compound fracture.
0:24:34 > 0:24:39Here the bone of his leg has punctured the skin
0:24:39 > 0:24:45and in graphic detail we've got a shattered shard sticking out into the air.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49Now, I've seen hundreds of these medical posters.
0:24:49 > 0:24:54They're commonly produced at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries
0:24:54 > 0:24:59to illustrate for medical purposes in schools.
0:24:59 > 0:25:04But I've never seen one that actually graphically shows an injury.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08All the ones I've seen in the past are a section of the brain,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10they're a section of the womb -
0:25:10 > 0:25:14these are the normal arrangement of organs within the body.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18Never actually an injury to a body!
0:25:18 > 0:25:21What does it cost you to buy a shocking little thing like this?
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Well, it could be yours for £40.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Go on, break a leg!
0:25:36 > 0:25:41Well, it's lovely to be in Golding Young & Mawer's saleroom in Grantham
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- with Colin Young, the proprietor. - Nice to have you back, Tim.- Lovely.
0:25:44 > 0:25:50Now, we kick off with the Reds with this rather typical Scottish brooch
0:25:50 > 0:25:53- from a rather typical Scottish expert.- Yes.
0:25:53 > 0:25:54We're not in Scotland, are we?
0:25:54 > 0:25:58Well, the good news is, you know, these days the market comes to the goods
0:25:58 > 0:26:02- instead of the other way around, so it doesn't matter where it's sold, really.- OK, fine.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Well, how much is it going to bring, Colin?
0:26:04 > 0:26:07- I've put an estimate on this one, £10-30.- OK, well, they only paid £10.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- So at that it should be all right, shouldn't it?- Indeed.
0:26:10 > 0:26:16Next are these rather peculiar easel photo frames.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19I mean, I don't know what's peculiar about them, they just seem rather tinny.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23They do. That was the first thing I thought with them. Really nice style, good rococo form to them,
0:26:23 > 0:26:26- certainly got some age about them. - Yeah.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29We placed an estimate of, well, again, I put 10-30, but, in fairness,
0:26:29 > 0:26:32I wouldn't be surprised if they made £40 or £50.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34- Did you say £40 or £50?- Yeah.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36£100 paid.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40- Mmm.- I mean, that's pretty monster, isn't it? - It's a lot of money, I think.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- OK. But you have to think internationally for the last lot. - Right.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47- Apparently American-made, this globe.- Yeah.
0:26:47 > 0:26:49- When do you think this is, 1960s? - Yeah, certainly.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54Well, will a 10-30 estimate provide relief for the team?
0:26:54 > 0:26:57- Might do. £20 they paid. - Well, it's not too bad.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01I mean, they spent £130, they'll get what they deserve, frankly.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05They're going to need their bonus buy. Let's go and have a look at it.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07Well, chaps, this is exciting, isn't it?
0:27:07 > 0:27:11You gave the lovely Anita Manning £170. What did the girl spend it on?
0:27:11 > 0:27:13- Anita, shall I take that for you? - Yes.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15OK. Whoa!
0:27:15 > 0:27:16- Wow!- That's nice.- You like it?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Yeah, that's nice.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23- It's a chiming mantel clock.- Right. - Made of mahogany.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25Little bit of inlay.
0:27:25 > 0:27:29It has a little dedication plaque on it for 1929.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32It's a nice, clean clock.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36And the dealer told me that it was working perfectly.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40He was a Scot, though, so I'll have to take that with a pinch of salt!
0:27:40 > 0:27:41What do you think, Matthew?
0:27:41 > 0:27:46- I like it. We did talk about getting a clock, didn't we?- Yeah. I think that's why you went for it!- Yes.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48Yeah, it looks nice and clean.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52The shape of it is called Napoleon's hat, for obvious reasons.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55How much did you spend on it?
0:27:55 > 0:27:58- I paid £20 for it.- How much?- 20.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01- £20?- Yes.- That's got to be good.
0:28:01 > 0:28:06Anyway, for the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Anita's clock.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09OK, there we go, Colin.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13If you had a pound for every one of those you've seen in your career, you'd be a wealthy man, right?
0:28:13 > 0:28:15- I would indeed!- Yes.- Yeah.
0:28:15 > 0:28:19- How do you rate it?- Well, as far as they go, this is middle of the range.
0:28:19 > 0:28:24You've got a nice silver dial on it, the case itself is in pretty good order.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29Mahogany inlaid with...looks like a bit of boxwood in there and possibly a piece of walnut across the front.
0:28:29 > 0:28:36- OK. How much?- £25-40. Is that good or bad?- It's OK. £20 paid by Anita.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38She's clearly got her eye in, which is lovely.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41Anyway, that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues,
0:28:41 > 0:28:46- who managed to spend just £71. - Has the budget been lowered, then?
0:28:46 > 0:28:50- No, it has not. We gave them £300 and that's what they came home with. - Oh, dear!
0:28:50 > 0:28:54- For a kick-off, the coffee pot and hot water jug...- Yeah.
0:28:54 > 0:28:59- Which is just about what everybody does not want in their house these days, I guess.- No.
0:28:59 > 0:29:02One of the hardest things to sell.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05We can come up with all the positives of, yes, it's a good Georgian styling,
0:29:05 > 0:29:07good early-18th-century design,
0:29:07 > 0:29:12- but the only negative is the market. - Nobody really wants it.
0:29:12 > 0:29:16We've put an estimate of 25-40 to hopefully encourage a little bit of interest, make people look at it...
0:29:16 > 0:29:19That's pretty good, because £20 is all they paid.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21- Times have changed. - They have changed,
0:29:21 > 0:29:23but currently they're melting it.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27- Talking about melt, we've got three little rings here.- Yeah.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32- Basically, those non-precious stones are glass, aren't they, or a form of glass.- Yeah.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35- So what we've got there is some gold shanks.- Yeah.
0:29:35 > 0:29:40- And that's more or less how I've valued it, really.- Some gold shanks and a few bits of glass.- Yeah.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43That's it. And I've put sort of 50-80 estimate on it,
0:29:43 > 0:29:46because in fairness some of those rings will actually be worn.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48- 50-80's all right because they only paid 50.- Right.
0:29:48 > 0:29:55So that's OK. The last item, of which they are particularly proud, is the £1 cocktail cabinet.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59These are one of those areas that just 20 years ago
0:29:59 > 0:30:02we used to get a hammer to them and put them on the skip.
0:30:02 > 0:30:08- Yes.- They've come back into fashion now, we can actually sell them, we do put a lot number on them.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10But nobody spends much money on them.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14- So they'll pay what? £20 or £30? - That's what I would hope for.
0:30:14 > 0:30:18- I've put that as an estimate again just to encourage and say have a look at this item.- Yeah.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21Because in most cases people would just walk by.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Well, they hardly spent a penny, therefore they'll probably hardly lose a penny.
0:30:24 > 0:30:28But let's go and have a look at their bonus buy anyway.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30Now, you naughty girls, you only spent £71.
0:30:30 > 0:30:35You gave the maestro £229, and I hope you blew the lot, Charlie!
0:30:35 > 0:30:38Very, very nearly!
0:30:38 > 0:30:39- Shall I take it?- Yeah, go.
0:30:39 > 0:30:42- Wow!- Look at that!- Oh, yes!
0:30:42 > 0:30:46I went for quality. What I would call an antique, really, over 100 years old.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50They are wonderful silver - solid silver. We're not looking at silver-plate here.
0:30:50 > 0:30:54Solid silver boat-shaped bon-bon dishes.
0:30:54 > 0:30:57They're Glasgow, 1907.
0:30:57 > 0:31:01- And I think they're gorgeous. - I think they are! - They're absolutely gorgeous.
0:31:01 > 0:31:05Well, I'm afraid they cost... Well, I'm not afraid, because I was thrilled to buy them,
0:31:05 > 0:31:09- but they cost £210.- Oh, right?- Oh. - It's a lot of money,
0:31:09 > 0:31:14but what I love about it, Charlie, is these girls have spent so little and you've spent so much,
0:31:14 > 0:31:18by the time we get to the auction what are they going to do?
0:31:18 > 0:31:21I think you're going to be in lather when we get to that moment!
0:31:21 > 0:31:24But let's see how it works out. Have a little think about it,
0:31:24 > 0:31:26because right now for the audience at home we'll find out
0:31:26 > 0:31:30what the auctioneer thinks about Charlie's couple of bon-bon dishes.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34- Well, they're rather pretty, aren't they?- They're lovely, aren't they?
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Really nice shape, flying-scroll handle.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40The price of silver's just slightly off, isn't it, at the moment.
0:31:40 > 0:31:42It's been very high, it's dropped back a bit.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46It has. It's been back on what I would call sensible money for quite a while now.
0:31:46 > 0:31:50All I can do is estimate them on today's value.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54- What is today's value, Colin?- Well, I think it's going to be 120-150.
0:31:54 > 0:31:58- Do you?- Yeah.- Oh, well, Charlie won't be so pleased about that.
0:31:58 > 0:32:02- £210 he invested.- Yeah. I think he's going to have a bit of a problem with that.
0:32:02 > 0:32:08Well, you never know! The team might not go with it, they may be so horrified at the fact he spent £210,
0:32:08 > 0:32:11they'll just run away from it. Anyway, good luck today on the rostrum.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13- Thank you.- Thank you, Colin.
0:32:19 > 0:32:23- So, Matt and Tom, here we are, edge of auction.- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25- How are you feeling?- Nervous.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28- What have you got to be nervous about, Tom?- Everything!
0:32:28 > 0:32:31- There's a lot on the line, but we're looking forward to it.- Are you?
0:32:31 > 0:32:35Anyway, exciting. The first lot is the Cairngorm brooch and here it comes.
0:32:35 > 0:32:39Lot number 50 now, Scottish silver Cairngorm set brooch.
0:32:39 > 0:32:44Who's going to start me at £30 for it? 20 to go, surely? 10.

0:33:15 > 0:33:18Who's going to start me at £80 for them?
0:33:18 > 0:33:2280? 50 to go. £50, anybody? 50 if we have to. 50?

0:33:55 > 0:33:57selling top right, going at 38.

0:34:35 > 0:34:38Well, it's the maiden bid and it's on the market
0:34:38 > 0:34:41- and selling at £10!- Aw!- Minus £10.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44- Overall you are minus £57.- Aw!
0:34:44 > 0:34:47£57 down. So what are we going to do about the Napoleon clock?
0:34:47 > 0:34:52- Got to go for it.- We have to.- Is it going to get you out of trouble? - I hope so! Anita, isn't it?
0:34:52 > 0:34:55- Anyway, exciting. We're going with it.- Yeah.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57I wish you all the very best, and here it comes.
0:34:57 > 0:34:58Lot number 56.
0:34:58 > 0:35:02This is an early 20th-century Napoleon's hat mantel clock,
0:35:02 > 0:35:05nicely inlaid and a good eight-day movement on it there.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08Who's going to start me at £50 for it? £50, anybody? 50?
0:35:08 > 0:35:1030 to go, then, surely? £30, anybody?

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Looks like it's your, then, sir. Cheap enough at 18 bid.
0:35:37 > 0:35:41- Selling, then, and done and finished at £18.- Unbelievable!- Aw!
0:35:41 > 0:35:43This is a very rare day!
0:35:43 > 0:35:46I don't see Anita burst into tears so often!
0:35:46 > 0:35:49That's minus £2, against all predictions!
0:35:49 > 0:35:51Anyway, overall, minus £59, chaps.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Well, that's not too bad if you say it quickly.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57- And the big thing is, don't say a word to those Blues, all right? - We won't, no.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59- Could be a winning score. - You never know.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09OK, Sal, June, feeling fit, girls?
0:36:09 > 0:36:12- Absolutely.- Excited.- I bet you are. Do you know how the Reds get on?
0:36:12 > 0:36:14- No idea.- We don't want you to.
0:36:14 > 0:36:20- First up is your coffee pot and hot water jug. - Come on, coffee pot!- Right now...
0:36:20 > 0:36:24So lot 72 which is a pair of 18th-century style
0:36:24 > 0:36:27electroplated coffee pot and matching water jug to go with it.
0:36:27 > 0:36:31There you go, George I style. Who's going to start me at £50?
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- 30 go then, surely?- 50?
0:36:34 > 0:36:3720 if you like. £20, anybody? 10 to go, then.
0:36:37 > 0:36:3910, and that'll be a bargain for everyone.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43- 10 bid. 12 now, do I see? - Come on, come on!
0:36:43 > 0:36:4412. 15 now?
0:36:44 > 0:36:4815 bid. 18 now on the net. 18, do I see?
0:36:48 > 0:36:5115. 18. 20? No?
0:36:51 > 0:36:53What's wrong with this?
0:36:53 > 0:36:5518 bid. 20? At 18 are we all done and finished?
0:36:55 > 0:36:5918 on the net. There's a room full of people. 20 down here! £20 bid.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02- 22, do I see?- Good auctioneer. - Coming back on the net at 22.
0:37:02 > 0:37:05£20 bid. 22?
0:37:05 > 0:37:07At 20, front row has it, then. Last call, then.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09Done and finished and we will sell at £20.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13Well done, girls. £20. No profit, no loss.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15No pain, no gain.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17Right, now the dress rings. Here they come.
0:37:17 > 0:37:18Lot number 73.
0:37:18 > 0:37:21Three assorted 9-carat gold rings.
0:37:21 > 0:37:23A nice triptych of rings.
0:37:23 > 0:37:25Who's going to start me at 30 and we'll save the hard work?
0:37:25 > 0:37:2830 straight in. 30 bid. 35 bid. 40, do I see now?
0:37:28 > 0:37:31At 35. 40 was that? It was. 40 bid. At 45?
0:37:31 > 0:37:34£40 bid. We'll slow down, then. 42 if you like.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37At £40 at the back of the room, then. 42 now, surely?
0:37:37 > 0:37:40Look at what we're selling here! At £40. We're on the market at 40.
0:37:40 > 0:37:44- At 40. Last call.- Oh, look out, look out! Oh, no, girls!- No!
0:37:44 > 0:37:46£40, that's minus £10.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49- It's a sign of gold, isn't it? - It's a sign of the times, Charlie.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- Now here comes your cocktail cabinet.- Yeah.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56This cannot fail to make a profit unless he can't find a buyer at all.
0:37:56 > 0:37:58Del Boy would be proud of us!
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Lot number 74
0:38:00 > 0:38:04is a walnut-veneered cocktail cabinet, very evocative,
0:38:04 > 0:38:08and very much of the period. Who's going to start me at £50 for it?
0:38:08 > 0:38:10£50, anyone? 50?
0:38:10 > 0:38:12- £50?- Did he say £50 or 50p?
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Pounds!
0:38:14 > 0:38:1630 to go? 30?
0:38:16 > 0:38:1820 to go, then, surely? £20. Look at the quality
0:38:18 > 0:38:20of what we're selling here. £20, anybody?
0:38:20 > 0:38:22£20 bid! 22 anywhere?
0:38:22 > 0:38:25We're on the market at 20. Is there 22? £20 bid.
0:38:25 > 0:38:2722? At £20 bid. If you haven't seen,
0:38:27 > 0:38:30it's got some very nice plastic cocktail sticks in it!
0:38:30 > 0:38:33At 20. Hopefully that's going to add to the value.
0:38:33 > 0:38:36But obviously not, and I better put the hammer down
0:38:36 > 0:38:37before she changes her mind!
0:38:37 > 0:38:41- Sold then at £20.- £20, girls. That's marvellous, isn't it?
0:38:41 > 0:38:43Plus £19 on that,
0:38:43 > 0:38:46which means overall you are plus £9.
0:38:46 > 0:38:51Now, you could go home, girls, with £4.50 each, right?
0:38:51 > 0:38:54That's folding money, practically, in your back pockets.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56So much for our trip on the Orient Express!
0:38:56 > 0:39:00Yeah, I know. You're not going to go far on the Orient Express!
0:39:00 > 0:39:05Or you can invest and run with Charlie with his bon-bon dishes.
0:39:05 > 0:39:11So, does it give you a lovely warm feeling or are you feeling slightly cold and lonely?
0:39:11 > 0:39:13I'm saying nothing.
0:39:13 > 0:39:17- Well, I think we both loved them. - You loved them?- We would buy it.
0:39:17 > 0:39:20- You're going to go with them?- No. - No?- We've decided...
0:39:20 > 0:39:23- What, you love them that much? - We love them so much
0:39:23 > 0:39:27- we're letting someone else have the pleasure of them.- Really?- Yes.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30OK. Well, the decision's made. You're not going with the bonus buy,
0:39:30 > 0:39:33but we're going to sell them anyway, and here they come.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35There we go. What shall we say for these?
0:39:35 > 0:39:39Who's going to start me at £200? 150 to go, surely? 150?
0:39:39 > 0:39:42- 150, anybody? - This is a great shame, Charlie.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45Surely 100? 80 to go. 50 if you like.
0:39:45 > 0:39:48£50, anybody? 50? At 50 I've got a bid.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52- It's not over yet, Charlie. - At 50, are we all done? 60.
0:39:52 > 0:39:5570. 80. 90. 90 bid.
0:39:55 > 0:39:5890 bid. 100? 100 bid. 110, do I see now?
0:39:58 > 0:40:01110. 120. 130? 130.
0:40:01 > 0:40:04140. 150. 160. 170.
0:40:04 > 0:40:06- It's happening.- 180 do I see? - Look at his face.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08180. 190. At 190. 200?
0:40:08 > 0:40:12At 200. 220 now. £200 bid. Do I see 210 now, if you like?
0:40:12 > 0:40:14If we're struggling... we are struggling. 210.
0:40:14 > 0:40:18- 220. 230.- Look, you're in profit. - 230. 240?
0:40:18 > 0:40:20250 now. 250?
0:40:20 > 0:40:25- At 240, then. I'll offer you 245. 245?- £245!
0:40:25 > 0:40:27245. 260? 265?
0:40:27 > 0:40:30268, do I see? 268. 270.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33At 270 bid. At 270. 272?
0:40:33 > 0:40:38At £270, are we all done? Final call, then. Selling at £270.
0:40:38 > 0:40:42Yes! Well done, Charles. That's ever so good!
0:40:42 > 0:40:44I mean, the man stands vindicated, doesn't he?
0:40:44 > 0:40:48He can walk tall, because had you trusted him,
0:40:48 > 0:40:51you'd have another £60!
0:40:51 > 0:40:54- Aw!- As it is... Ye of little faith!
0:40:54 > 0:40:57- We did say we liked them. - You did say you liked them.
0:40:57 > 0:41:02And you'd like somebody else to have the pleasure of supporting Charles in this, which they have done!
0:41:02 > 0:41:07Anyway, there we are. That is just the rich magic roundabout of Bargain Hunt, isn't it?
0:41:07 > 0:41:12Anyway, plus £9. It is your profit. Don't say a word to those boys.
0:41:12 > 0:41:13No point in spoiling their day!
0:41:13 > 0:41:18- And all will be revealed in a moment. And well done, Charles. - Thank you.- Thank you, girls.
0:41:25 > 0:41:28Well, what fun we've had, haven't we? It's been a hoot!
0:41:28 > 0:41:30- Yeah!- It's been a hoot!
0:41:30 > 0:41:33- Have you been talking to one another at all, comparing scores?- No.- No.
0:41:33 > 0:41:37No. Because one of these teams is mighty cocky and one of these teams is not so cocky!
0:41:37 > 0:41:41And the team that's not so cocky today are the Reds.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43Aw!
0:41:43 > 0:41:47- In fact, it's been nearly an out-and-out disaster, hasn't it? - Pretty much!
0:41:47 > 0:41:49And your end score is minus £59.
0:41:49 > 0:41:54But, by jingo, have you been good sports? Which I admire very much!
0:41:54 > 0:41:57- Supported ably, of course, by the lovely Anita.- Quite.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01- Have you had a nice time? - It's been fantastic!- Great. - Thank you for joining us.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04But the contraire applies with the Blues, because they're going home with money.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07They're going home with £9. There you go.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09There's the £9.
0:42:09 > 0:42:14But you could have been going home with £69 if you'd trusted Charlie.
0:42:14 > 0:42:19- I know.- I know, Charlie, I'm sorry. - Because he made a profit of £60 on his bonus buy,
0:42:19 > 0:42:23- and the girls didn't take it.- Oh! - Aw! Isn't that bad luck?- It is.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25Still, you did very well on your own account,
0:42:25 > 0:42:28particularly with the cocktail cabinet!
0:42:28 > 0:42:32One of the most irritating things I've seen sold recently.
0:42:32 > 0:42:37I mean, how could they pay a pound and then sell it for £20 and make a profit of 19?
0:42:37 > 0:42:39That's really cheeky, you two!
0:42:39 > 0:42:43- Well, we had fun.- You did have fun. We all had fun.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46Just don't start a fashion on this programme, all right?
0:42:46 > 0:42:48Lovely, lovely girls.
0:42:48 > 0:42:52- Anyway, join us soon for some more Bargain Hunting, yes?- Yes!
0:42:56 > 0:42:58I know, you're sitting there thinking,
0:42:58 > 0:43:00"I could have done better than that!"
0:43:00 > 0:43:02Well, what's stopping you?
0:43:02 > 0:43:04If you think you can spot a bargain,
0:43:04 > 0:43:06go to our BBC website and apply.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09It'll be splendid to see you.
