0:00:04 > 0:00:08To Wetherby or not to Wetherby, now, that is the question.
0:00:08 > 0:00:12Well, we're here at the racecourse and ready for a flutter,
0:00:12 > 0:00:14so let's go bargain hunting, yeah!
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Today, we're at the racecourse in Wetherby.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45They've been horsing around here,
0:00:45 > 0:00:48including the racing, for over 120 years,
0:00:48 > 0:00:52but our teams today only have one hour to find their three items
0:00:52 > 0:00:55with 300 of these fellas.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58Now, let's see how they've got on, shall we?
0:00:59 > 0:01:03'In today's programme, the Reds have started early on the moonshine.'
0:01:03 > 0:01:06- Come on! Irish coffee for breakfast? - Why not?
0:01:06 > 0:01:11- 'The Blues are a couple of jokers.' - "I'm sorry, Ollie!- Another fine mess you've got me into!"
0:01:11 > 0:01:15'And later on at auction, the tension starts to build.'
0:01:15 > 0:01:1735, 40.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19GAVEL BANGS
0:01:19 > 0:01:23Look at that! 'But first up, let's meet the teams.'
0:01:23 > 0:01:26On the show today, we've got two teams of couples.
0:01:26 > 0:01:30We've got Kay and Paul for the Reds
0:01:30 > 0:01:32and Esther and Hossein for the Blues.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37- Hello, everyone.- Hello.- Lovely to see you. Kay, how did you two meet?
0:01:37 > 0:01:43- We met at work. We sat side by side and I thought I might scoop him up. - Did you?- Yeah, like a bargain.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47- What company were you working at? - A computer company in Bradford.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51- Are you a bit of a computer buff? - Not at all. I run a wedding shop now.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55That's my thing. And I've child-minded for eight years.
0:01:55 > 0:02:00- When you got married, that was unusual.- Yeah. Paul never knew he was getting married.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04He thought he was going scuba-diving. I booked it at Gretna Green.
0:02:04 > 0:02:10We got halfway there and I got him to propose to me. I said, "Can we get married anywhere?" He said, "Yes."
0:02:10 > 0:02:15- I said, "Tomorrow morning, ten o'clock. Your suit's over there." - I don't believe it.- It's true.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- You're an organised girl. - I am.- Brilliant.
0:02:18 > 0:02:25- So, Paul, you collect toys.- I do. A lot of people would say that was one of the reasons we had children,
0:02:25 > 0:02:28- so that I can get the toys that I want.- Really?
0:02:28 > 0:02:34Yes, you often catch me playing out on the street with my children with the go-karts and the Heelys.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- All the stuff you wanted to do as a kid.- That I weren't allowed.- Yeah.
0:02:38 > 0:02:43- Now you let them do anything. - That's it.- Have you got any tactics between you today?
0:02:43 > 0:02:47Paul will nod and say "yes". I'll keep my hands on the money.
0:02:47 > 0:02:53- You're going to do what you're told. - Of course.- Quite right. It's the secret to a happy marriage.- Yeah.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57- We'll look forward to that and very good luck.- Thank you.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00So, Esther, how did you and Hossein meet?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03We actually met in a casino, of all places.
0:03:03 > 0:03:08We both worked in catering at the time and we finished quite late at night.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13It was the only kind of place to go that was quiet, no bouncing music and just relaxing.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Yeah, just to wind down.- That's it.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Out of winding down came love. What could be nicer than that?
0:03:19 > 0:03:23- Now, you speak Farsi.- Yeah. - Tell us about that.
0:03:23 > 0:03:29We went to Iran for six months and I got sick of not understanding what he was talking about.
0:03:29 > 0:03:34I kept hearing my name pop into the conversation, so I wanted to know what he was talking about.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37What's "let's go bargain hunting" in Farsi?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40SHE SPEAKS IN FARSI, HE CORRECTS HER
0:03:40 > 0:03:42See, I messed it up!
0:03:42 > 0:03:45That's not bad, is it? It's nice and short.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47ATTEMPTS PHRASE IN FARSI
0:03:47 > 0:03:50THEY REPEAT PHRASE
0:03:50 > 0:03:52What do you do now you're here in England?
0:03:52 > 0:03:56I am a chef. I make pizzas for a famous restaurant.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00Do you like the crispy ones or the deep-filled jobs?
0:04:00 > 0:04:03I like the crispy ones because that's what I make.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08- I like the crispy ones. Do you like the crispy ones?- They're good. - Do you like the crispy ones?
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Yeah.- I like the crispy ones. Who likes the deep ones?
0:04:12 > 0:04:18- Have you got any tactics, you two? - We'll just have a good browse. I'd like to see if I could find a bronze.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- You'd like a bronze.- Yeah. - Hossein, what about you?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25I look for quirky things. Maybe jewellery.
0:04:25 > 0:04:32- Something from the Middle East? - Perhaps.- If it's the right price? - If it's the right price, definitely.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- You'd be good at the old haggling? - So they say, yes.
0:04:35 > 0:04:41- There we go.- I might have to rein him in.- The stallholders had better watch out.- Yes, indeed.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Now the money moment - £300 apiece. There's £300.
0:04:43 > 0:04:49You know the rules, your experts await and off you go and very, very, very good luck!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Mozzarella and tomato?
0:04:51 > 0:04:54And next up, it's time to meet our experts.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00Can she score a hat-trick for the Reds? It's Natasha Raskin.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04And tuning up for the Blues, it's fellow Scot Paul Laidlaw.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Don't give up the day job, eh, buddy?
0:05:08 > 0:05:13Kay, Paul, a married couple, but we're about to find out who wears the trousers.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Kay, what are you looking for? - Something unusual, something pretty.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21- Esther, Hossein, what are we looking for?- I'd like to find some bronzes.
0:05:21 > 0:05:26- Bronzes?- Yeah.- You're setting the benchmark kind of high! - Well, maybe some spelter.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31- Paul, what are you thinking? - I'm thinking what Kay thinks.- Is that the way it always goes?- Yeah.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34OK, Kay, you take the lead.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37- Hailing from the Middle East, you can haggle?- Yes.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41I'm going to do my best to buy cheap and sell it expensive.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45- This sounds like a good team and a good plan. Let's go.- Let's go.
0:05:45 > 0:05:49I think we've established who wears the trousers for the Reds - Kay.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52It always catches my eye, something that sparkles.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55OK, this lovely urn known as a samovar.
0:05:55 > 0:06:00- Possibly a distil?- Possibly, yeah. She has got drinking on the mind.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Oh, my goodness! It's 11 o'clock in the morning.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06- Come on, Irish coffee for breakfast? Hmm!- Why not?
0:06:06 > 0:06:11So it's for dispensing drinks. We were talking about something liquid-based.
0:06:11 > 0:06:17For £10, genuinely, it's a great price, but I think we're talking gamble territory.
0:06:17 > 0:06:23At auction, I wouldn't expect that to make much more than £10, £15. We're already spending £10 on it.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26It's a great thing. I like that you've gone with your gut
0:06:26 > 0:06:30and you've gone right over to it, but I think we're gambling.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42Are you a hard-liner or might you be the kind of lady that would compromise on price?
0:06:42 > 0:06:44- I would compromise.- Well, Esther...
0:06:44 > 0:06:47- I'm interested in your Whitefriars. - Right.
0:06:47 > 0:06:52- It's not doing quite what it did at auction, is it? - It's not.- It's fallen away.
0:06:52 > 0:06:58- It seems to have... The bottom. - It's calmed down, hasn't it?- Yeah.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02But I like the colour. The colour can go with anything.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06- Some of them are really bright colours.- Tangerines...- Exactly.
0:07:06 > 0:07:12- They might be a bit too wacky. - It's an interesting colour.- I like the shape as well.- It's a good shape.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16- Is that your cup of tea, Hossein? - Yeah, I like it.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19But for the price, obviously.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Robin? - 65 would be the death.
0:07:21 > 0:07:28So you're looking at a 1960s piece of Whitefriars glass, Baxter design. It ticks a lot of boxes.
0:07:28 > 0:07:33It's not one of the iconic pieces. It's not a banjo or a drunken bricklayer.
0:07:33 > 0:07:39But it's priced appropriately. It's not £200 or £300. We're looking at £65.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41At auction...
0:07:41 > 0:07:45on a bad day, it's only worth £40 or £50.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47There's a wee bit of risk in that.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50On a good day, worth £80.
0:07:50 > 0:07:55- I think you're pretty close.- But I think we need to take some risks.
0:07:55 > 0:08:00Robin, can I be cheeky and ask for £45?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02- No.- Not at all?- No.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04It's a rare colour, it's a rare shape.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07- It's worth 60, 65. - I quite like it.
0:08:07 > 0:08:12- You like it?- I do. I think we should do a deal.- How much do you like it? - Enough to give him...
0:08:12 > 0:08:16- Would you take 60 for that? - Yeah, go on. Just for you.
0:08:16 > 0:08:21- Will we get a deal? - I'm loving your work, Esther. I think you've just done a deal.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23- Thank you very much. - Thank you.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27Just five minutes gone and Esther has bossed the Blues' first buy.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Now it looks like Kay is on home ground here.
0:08:30 > 0:08:35In your bridal shop, do you see a lot of hat pins? Do you sell accessories?
0:08:35 > 0:08:38No, but I would love a really nice sewing box.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41These would definitely sell in my shop.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45- They're quite cute.- They're lovely. - There's a nice selection of them.
0:08:45 > 0:08:51You're looking for a nice, enamelled one, perhaps a little nine-carat gold pin.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55I think this is all costume jewellery, but bear that in mind.
0:08:55 > 0:09:00- You're looking for perhaps a nice jewellery casket.- That would make my day, just to see one.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03Let's keep our eyes peeled for some bling.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07Now, from bling to a brooch.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11If we look at the raw materials here,
0:09:11 > 0:09:14we've probably got £5-worth of silver.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17- Is that amber? - And a citrine-coloured...
0:09:17 > 0:09:20Citrine, which is a quartz variant,
0:09:20 > 0:09:24but in truth, it's probably just amber glass.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27So the media here, worthless.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30But it's worth way more than the sum of its parts.
0:09:30 > 0:09:35This is a worked piece by a manufacturer of some renown.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39We should see it's marked Charles Horner, a northern manufacturer,
0:09:39 > 0:09:45famed for Art Nouveau-inspired, small silver jewellery.
0:09:45 > 0:09:50And there you have it, "CH", Chester, early 20th century.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Very nicely worked. Is that your cup of tea?
0:09:53 > 0:09:55- Is this a brooch?- It is a brooch.
0:09:55 > 0:10:01- I don't think people wear brooches these days.- They are coming back. - Are they coming back?
0:10:01 > 0:10:04I'm not a lady, so I wouldn't know.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08So the best thing is asking the price. What do you think?
0:10:08 > 0:10:14- 42.- £42? Brooches are out of fashion. This is what I think. I don't know what you think.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16- Probably 1920s.- Yeah.
0:10:16 > 0:10:22- I think we'll come back to this if you don't mind.- OK. - I would like to put it back.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28- That's a hot coals carrier. - Hot coals?
0:10:28 > 0:10:32- A Victorian... - Right. You'd have it by your fireplace.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34It looks like a Dalek!
0:10:34 > 0:10:41When your fire had finished on the night, what were left, you'd just carry them out.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Keep you toasty and warm. It would appeal to me, but I've got Paul to keep me toasty and warm.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50- I've also got a fleece, so I might have to put that back.- Thank you.
0:10:53 > 0:10:59While the Red Team are not making any decisions, the Blues have no worries. Or have they?
0:11:00 > 0:11:03- Is that doing anything for you? - Not for me, no.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05I don't know. Are you into jewellery?
0:11:05 > 0:11:09The thing is, coming from the Middle East, we do use worry beads.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13High quality worry beads with gold and jade and what have you.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15It is far too small.
0:11:15 > 0:11:19- For our worries? - For our worries, yeah.- That's true.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23- So I think we should...- Crack on. - Pass on that.- If you don't mind.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Look, before we walk off,
0:11:25 > 0:11:27before we walk off,
0:11:27 > 0:11:35can you possibly make the brooch tempting to my mean compadre here, Hossein?
0:11:35 > 0:11:41It's probably an easier sell to you, Esther, than it is Hossein, but I think you should...
0:11:41 > 0:11:48To me, can I suggest a price without being cheeky and rude?
0:11:48 > 0:11:50I was thinking about £28.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52I'll do 30 for you.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56£28 and we have a deal. Shake hands on it.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01- It's early in the morning... - Go on.- My second item. You've got it.- He's a machine.
0:12:01 > 0:12:07- Thank you very much.- Do you want to adopt me? Can we join up together?- I can work with you.
0:12:07 > 0:12:14Wow, two buys in just 12 minutes for the Blues! Can something sentimental tempt the Reds to part with cash?
0:12:14 > 0:12:18- That's an interesting one. That's come from Gretna Green.- OK.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20We got married in Gretna Green!
0:12:20 > 0:12:24They had that on the marriage vehicles. It's a mascot. >
0:12:24 > 0:12:30- Our marriage vehicle was our old camper van.- It was. We didn't have one of those on the camper van.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- What's the best you can do on that? - 95 on that.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35I'd just do it under 100.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37- This is rare.- I like that.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- How about 65? - No, no.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42- No? - There's no chance with that one.
0:12:42 > 0:12:46I can negotiate with some of them, but not that. That is a one-off.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50- < It's a lot.- It's an interesting piece. It's a nice bit of brass.
0:12:50 > 0:12:55It means something to you, which is quite important, and to a lot of people.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- I think at auction...- How about 70 then? Come on, do us a deal.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- No, it's... - Come on.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04There's no way I'd go any less than... >
0:13:04 > 0:13:07- A true romantic would do us a deal. - No, I can't. I'm sorry.
0:13:07 > 0:13:11- Shall we have a little think? - By all means.
0:13:11 > 0:13:16- If it's meant to be, it'll be there when we get back. - Something to think about.- Yeah.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20- Somebody else might come along from Gretna Green. - We'll see!
0:13:20 > 0:13:24So, not even wedding memories will make the Reds buy something.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Meanwhile, the Blues are cruising with two buys in the old bag.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33I like this one. I like the design on it.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Yeah, it's absolutely lovely.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38You've got a maple top that's inlaid with the marquetry.
0:13:38 > 0:13:44It's quite nicely done. We've got some more inlay inside with the padded interior.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48- That's what you were looking for. - I do like that.- I like that.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51- You're quite drawn to that.- Yeah. - I like that more.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53I like a bit of tea.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57Yeah, I think that this is a lovely lot and this is a nice lot too.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02- How much is that one?- Completely different.- 25.- £25. Nice inlay.
0:14:02 > 0:14:07It's got the initials. I get the impression that this was probably done by an amateur.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10This is their initials. That's the impression I get.
0:14:10 > 0:14:16Quite popular at the beginning of the 20th century for people to do marquetry in their spare time.
0:14:16 > 0:14:20It is a sort of a hobby thing. However, this is quite finely done.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23It's not painting by numbers marquetry-style.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27- I like that.- What about this item over here? It's just odd.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31I say, it's good to hear that Kay is listening to her husband, isn't it?
0:14:31 > 0:14:35After two quick buys in succession, the Blues are becoming too picky.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39- Do you like that?- No, I don't. Why are we looking at that?
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Does that do anything for you? No.
0:14:43 > 0:14:48It's a saucy clock. There's no great age to that, I'd say. That's resin.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52- It's a modern piece, it's a modern collectable. Are we buying...?- No.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55You'll struggle to sell that at auction.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58While Paul Laidlaw helps the Blues find their final item,
0:14:58 > 0:15:04other Paul in the Red Team is struggling to get his voice heard. They still haven't bought anything.
0:15:04 > 0:15:10- It's British pewter and this design all over it, it looks like it's been battered and bruised.- Yeah.
0:15:10 > 0:15:15It's hand-hammered. We've got the teapot, the sugar and cream and the tray.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17I think the tray is quite key.
0:15:17 > 0:15:22You see the bits and bobs all of the time, but the tray is bringing it together.
0:15:22 > 0:15:28I can see the price tag - £45. It's not far off what you would be expecting that to make at auction.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Maybe we could go and have a word and do a deal. I really like that.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36It's odd, I think it's pretty, even though it's rustic.
0:15:36 > 0:15:42It's for display. However, it has the dual purpose in the sense that it can still be used.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47People would still serve their tea out of it. It's decorative and delightful and worth a haggle.
0:15:47 > 0:15:53- Definitely.- Let's ask the lady. We've got a lovely lady here. This is beautiful.
0:15:53 > 0:15:58I like it because it's a bit odd. It looks like it's had a bit of a battering.
0:15:58 > 0:16:02I'm hoping I can do a bit of a battering to this £45 price tag. How about 30?
0:16:02 > 0:16:0630... We couldn't go for 30.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08- 35 would do it.- 35's a good price.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- 35. - I think that's a good deal.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- I love it. Thank you. - Thank you very much.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18- Thank you.- Thank you very much. £35 - are you happy with that?- I love it.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21Finally, a deal for the Reds. Half an hour gone.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Now, what are those Blues up to, eh?
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Have you seen these, Hossein? "I'm sorry, Ollie!"
0:16:27 > 0:16:31- "Another fine mess you've got me into!"- Exactly.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Larking around by the looks of it. Meanwhile, the Reds haven't moved an inch.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- You like the box.- I like that. - Are you sure?- Yeah.
0:16:39 > 0:16:44- Shall we have a look around?- No. - Do you like it?- I like that. - It's a sewing box!
0:16:44 > 0:16:49- My goodness!- What have we got here? - Paul is taking charge. I like it, Paul.
0:16:49 > 0:16:55- I feel uncomfortable.- My goodness! - This is where I'd keep the little things that you make me throw away.
0:16:55 > 0:17:01- I'm not keen.- I like it.- If you could do a deal, I'd be impressed. - I will.- Let's see you do it.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03This one does have a price tag of 25
0:17:03 > 0:17:07and I did notice just a tiny bit of damage.
0:17:07 > 0:17:13- There is some damage.- I wondered if there was anything you could do on that with us buying this too?
0:17:13 > 0:17:15£20? Would £20 do it?
0:17:15 > 0:17:19- Could we say 18 and then it looks like I'm a really good haggler?- 18.
0:17:19 > 0:17:25- It would make me like him more.- We'll have that as well. Thank you.- Paul, we didn't know you had it in you!
0:17:25 > 0:17:32So, after a painfully slow start, the Reds have bought two items in two minutes. Hugs all round then.
0:17:32 > 0:17:36That is a Sumlock comptometer.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39- A mechanical calculator.- Oh, right.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42- It used to be a trade... - It's a bit of a cumbersome thing.
0:17:42 > 0:17:48We had a lady who'd done an apprenticeship on it. She became a comptometer or something.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52She actually... That was a comptometer. That was her job.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55Let me tell you why I'm looking at that.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58This is a hot field.
0:17:58 > 0:18:06As electronic technology renders such mechanical calculators obsolete, these become collectable.
0:18:06 > 0:18:11I'm asking for a leap of faith here. That's an interesting object.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14- I'm going to put my... - Are you going to back him?
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Yeah, I'm going to back Paul. What do you think?
0:18:17 > 0:18:22- It's a hell of a contrast... - I think it's two to one.- ..to glass and jewellery. I like that.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26- It is different.- We like it, we like it and it's adding up.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28LAUGHTER
0:18:28 > 0:18:31Hey, that's my kind of joke!
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Now, Reds, are you still on fire?
0:18:33 > 0:18:38- Imagine that, fire on, glowing through.- That's absolutely fab. Paul, you like it.
0:18:38 > 0:18:43- I like it because it looks quite child-like, like a small house. - It's fun.- I do like it.
0:18:43 > 0:18:49We know why you like it. I think it's lovely. Cast-iron fireguard, exactly as you said.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54It has got age to it, it has got a collectability factor. It's got the usefulness.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57- I think we need to find out what it's got on it.- It's £50.
0:18:57 > 0:19:03Obviously, we want to bring that down a little. We don't want to give away that we've got plenty of money.
0:19:03 > 0:19:08- We want to try and do a deal. Let's see if we can. Here you go.- Thanks.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10You can give it to me now.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13This is a very special piece. It's called a Tidy Betty.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17I couldn't do it for less than 45. That's what it has to be.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19- Could we say 40?- How about 40?- 40?
0:19:19 > 0:19:23- 42. - Go on then. Yeah, come on.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25- 42.- 42's good.
0:19:25 > 0:19:2842. OK, does it sound like a deal?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31- Thank you. I love it. - It is special, that.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35- It's my favourite thing of the day. - Thank you very much.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38- Thank you. OK...- All good. - A Tidy Betty.
0:19:38 > 0:19:46The Reds bought nothing for nearly half an hour, then cleaned up with all three buys in ten minutes. Tidy!
0:19:46 > 0:19:48- What were you saying?- It's 15.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- I'll give you £10. - No, it has to be 15.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Come on, £11.- No, 15. - Shake my hand.- 15.
0:19:54 > 0:19:5614 then. Give me a pound.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Come on, give me a pound.
0:19:58 > 0:20:04Three of us here think it's going to be 15. I think that was a good deal. Thank you very much.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06- That's our third item.- Thank you.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Thank you, sir.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- Guys, we did it! - You see what I have to put up with?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13The thing is...
0:20:14 > 0:20:17To me, it was £10.
0:20:17 > 0:20:22- Personally.- Well, wait and see what the auction-goers think it's worth.
0:20:22 > 0:20:28- I reckon they'll think it's worth more than 15.- If I make any money on this, I'll buy you a coffee.
0:20:28 > 0:20:33How's that? The other way round, I'll get my money back off you.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34LAUGHTER
0:20:34 > 0:20:38Would you believe it? Both of our teams have bought all three items
0:20:38 > 0:20:41and there's still 20 minutes left on the clock.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45Kay, I don't get much of this in Glasgow. Oh, this is lovely!
0:20:45 > 0:20:51- What we need, as we're in Yorkshire, Yorkshire tea, Yorkshire man. - Excuse me, young man!
0:20:51 > 0:20:54- A celebratory ice cream? - I think so.- I'm up for that.
0:20:54 > 0:21:00- Hossein, remember, this is a fixed price, yeah?- All right, OK. This time, I'm...- You'll be good.- Yeah.
0:21:00 > 0:21:04- Oh, fantastic. Paul, thank you. - You're welcome.- No biscuits?
0:21:04 > 0:21:08I wonder how those Blues are doing? They'll be tearing their hair out!
0:21:08 > 0:21:13- So we're going to buy six and we get one free, yeah?- If you buy six, you get one free.- Yeah!
0:21:13 > 0:21:17- No biscuits? Biscuits? - Do I get to sit down?- Biscuits.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21I thought he was the husband from heaven. Thanks. That'll be all.
0:21:21 > 0:21:28We've finished nice and early which is rare, so let's have a little shufti at what the Red Team bought.
0:21:28 > 0:21:32For the pewter tea service, complete with tray, they served up £35.
0:21:32 > 0:21:38For the rectangular jewellery box with marquetry detail, they spent £18.
0:21:38 > 0:21:43And for the Tidy Betty fire guard, they spent a tidy £42.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50- You were chuffed with the fire guard.- Loved it.- Absolutely.
0:21:50 > 0:21:56- I think we've got some happy customers here.- I'd so take that home.- That's nice.- A bit of paint.
0:21:56 > 0:22:02- You're a bit of a doer upper. - Yeah. I like a bargain. - What's your favourite, Paul?
0:22:02 > 0:22:07- I like the small wooden box. - Will it bring the biggest profit? - I think it will.
0:22:07 > 0:22:12- Yeah? Did you find it?- I did.- There we are.- We could be millionaires.
0:22:12 > 0:22:19- Do you think his box will do good? - No, I think it's awful. But I let him loose with £18. What can you do?
0:22:19 > 0:22:23Let your man out with £18 and he comes home with an old box.
0:22:23 > 0:22:29- Your prediction as to which will bring the biggest profit? - Definitely the fire guard.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32OK, fine. What did you spend between you?
0:22:32 > 0:22:37- £95.- I'd like £205 of leftover lolly, please.- Have I got the money?
0:22:37 > 0:22:42You have. Not for long, though. £205. Now, Natasha,
0:22:42 > 0:22:45this is your test, isn't it? How will you get on?
0:22:45 > 0:22:52Kay and Paul bought all their items on one stand, so I have got the whole entire fair to peruse.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56I've got a couple of tricks up my sleeve for you guys.
0:22:56 > 0:23:02- Fantastic.- That sounds very tricky to me. Right now, why don't we find out what the Blue team bought, eh?
0:23:02 > 0:23:07For the Whitefriars glass vase from the '60s, they spent £60.
0:23:07 > 0:23:11For the Charles Horner brooch, they spent a sparkling £28.
0:23:11 > 0:23:17And for the 1950s Sumlock calculating machine, the purchase price totted up to £15.
0:23:17 > 0:23:22- I wasn't sure about that at all. - Have faith.- OK.- A good thing.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26I tell you, kids, a lot of us aren't sure about anything on here.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30- Which is your favourite piece? - I think the Whitefriars.
0:23:30 > 0:23:35- Whitefriars is your favourite. Do you agree, Hossein?- No.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39I liked the last piece we bought. The computer.
0:23:39 > 0:23:45- The calculator.- Yeah. Nice. - I think it is unusual. - Yes. And such a great colour.
0:23:45 > 0:23:50- It is indeed.- That's your favourite. Which will bring the biggest profit?
0:23:50 > 0:23:55I don't know. I might have to back down and say their item.
0:23:55 > 0:24:00- Really?- Yeah.- You can add up exactly how much you spent, which was...?
0:24:00 > 0:24:05- £103.- So who has got the £197? - That'll be me.- Right-o.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09- You don't like handing this over, do you?- No!
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Anyway, lovely. Over it goes to Paul Laidlaw.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16- That's a lot of cash.- Far too much!
0:24:16 > 0:24:22I have my eye on something to add to your profits. Considerably, I suspect.
0:24:22 > 0:24:26That's intriguing. Trot off and snaffle it up, Paul.
0:24:26 > 0:24:32Meanwhile, we're heading to have a look at something that's munchy, crunchy and really rather tasty.
0:24:38 > 0:24:43What happens six billion times in Britain every year
0:24:43 > 0:24:47that gives us all intense pleasure?
0:24:48 > 0:24:52We open a packet of crisps.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55Isn't that an extraordinary statistic?
0:24:55 > 0:25:03Six billion times every year a crisp packet is opened by one or other of us.
0:25:03 > 0:25:10And that's what makes this piece of kitchenalia, for me, special.
0:25:10 > 0:25:16Because it's a Smith's potato crisp packet container
0:25:16 > 0:25:19dating, I guess, from the 1920s or 1930s.
0:25:19 > 0:25:24When it was made, this jar was not cheap.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27If you rub your finger over the branding on the front,
0:25:27 > 0:25:31it's not painted on. It's acid-etched on.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35Each of the letters are indented because they've been acid-etched
0:25:35 > 0:25:39and then the highlight, the lozenge in the Smith's name,
0:25:39 > 0:25:42has been coloured so that it stands out.
0:25:42 > 0:25:48Mrs Smith made her first crisp in Britain in 1918.
0:25:48 > 0:25:53She did so well making these crisps that she moved to a factory the following year
0:25:53 > 0:25:57and - hey, presto - a popular business was born.
0:25:57 > 0:26:03In the 1930s, during the Great Depression, the business spread to Australia
0:26:03 > 0:26:08and following WWII the company continued to grow quickly in Britain.
0:26:08 > 0:26:13In 1961, the first flavoured crisps were produced -
0:26:13 > 0:26:19chicken flavour - and up to that moment to flavour your crisps you had to undo the bit of salt.
0:26:19 > 0:26:24Apart from the war years, apparently, when, as the story goes,
0:26:24 > 0:26:28some of the female workers working in the crisp factory
0:26:28 > 0:26:32not only tied up a little twist of blue paper with salt in it,
0:26:32 > 0:26:38but they also gave details of their personal telephone number and address,
0:26:38 > 0:26:44just in case a visiting American GI soldier should happen to have that packet of crisps
0:26:44 > 0:26:47and ring her up for a date.
0:26:47 > 0:26:54Isn't that fantastic? Almost as fantastic, I think, as this piece of kitchenalia.
0:26:54 > 0:27:02An object which represents something we all do, apparently, six billion times every year
0:27:02 > 0:27:05is bound to have a popular response.
0:27:05 > 0:27:12Keep the crisps in the bag or, alternatively, go for the au naturel look,
0:27:14 > 0:27:19Somehow I think this looks much better full of its proper product.
0:27:19 > 0:27:24Don't you? The really tasty thing about it, though, is the price.
0:27:24 > 0:27:30Cos this jar, if not with the crisps, could be yours today for £30.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34How about that for an icon of British crisp making?
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Mm! Tasty!
0:27:41 > 0:27:4590. Five. 100. 10. 20. That's the lot.
0:27:45 > 0:27:50We've trotted up the A1 to be with Peter Robinson in his sale room,
0:27:50 > 0:27:54Thomas Watson Auctioneers in Darlington. Lovely to be here.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57Thank you. It's good to see you.
0:27:57 > 0:28:03- First is a three-piece pewter tea set on tray.- Yes.- There's an awful lot of them about.- A lot.
0:28:03 > 0:28:09Hammered pewter, cane handle to the teapot. They should get more respect than they do.
0:28:09 > 0:28:15It's a little bit weak in style. If it was Arts and Crafts and a little bit more stylish...
0:28:15 > 0:28:20- Is it 1930s?- I think later than that.- Oh, do you?- Yes, I do.
0:28:20 > 0:28:26- What's your estimate? - We've put 30-50.- Have you? - Which is quite bold.
0:28:26 > 0:28:32- It is four pieces, with a nice oval tray.- You get a lot for your money. £35 paid.
0:28:32 > 0:28:38- Perhaps they've done the right thing. Perhaps we'll get a profit. - I'll keep my fingers crossed.
0:28:38 > 0:28:43I'll also cross my fingers with the Alpine marquetry box.
0:28:43 > 0:28:50Yes, again it's based on an antique theme, but I'd suggest this box dates from the '60s
0:28:50 > 0:28:55or '70s. It's got the marquetry decoration to the lid. We've put 20-40.
0:28:55 > 0:29:02OK, £18 paid. And the last item I find very difficult to get truly passionate about.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05- It's our Tidy Betty. - It's cast iron.
0:29:05 > 0:29:10We see Tidy Bettys a lot in our sale room, but not in a cottage shape.
0:29:10 > 0:29:15Fingers crossed it might be seen as one that's a little different.
0:29:15 > 0:29:21We've put an estimate of 30-50, which might be quite strong, but it's different.
0:29:21 > 0:29:25£42 paid. And it comes complete with rust.
0:29:25 > 0:29:31- Yes, it does. No extra charge. - I don't know whether this team will get away with it or not,
0:29:31 > 0:29:35but I think they'll need their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.
0:29:35 > 0:29:39Now, KP - Kay and Paul - this is exciting.
0:29:39 > 0:29:44You only spent £95. You gave Natasha £205. Darling, what did you spend it on?
0:29:44 > 0:29:49- Well, you gave me £205, but like a true Scot I didn't spend it all. - Good!
0:29:49 > 0:29:53- I spent £55 on...- £55?
0:29:54 > 0:30:00- ..a children's rolling chalkboard! - The childminder loves it!
0:30:00 > 0:30:04- I thought exactly of you.- I love it. - Do you love it?- For £55? Bargain!
0:30:04 > 0:30:09- It does remind me of school, though. - Is that a bad thing?
0:30:09 > 0:30:14- If you weren't so naughty, you wouldn't mind!- The auction today is going live online.
0:30:14 > 0:30:20It might be appropriate for a loft restaurant, specials of the day, rounding it around.
0:30:20 > 0:30:25I do think it's got lots of purposes and I thought of you, Kay.
0:30:25 > 0:30:31- I always think of you. - I think the question to ask, though, is how much will someone spend?
0:30:31 > 0:30:37Well, I would be hoping around £70, £80. I don't know if I'm being a little punchy, but...
0:30:37 > 0:30:40I would definitely pay that.
0:30:40 > 0:30:47- £80-£100. It's an unusual item. - I think the idea of it being some sort of menu accessory,
0:30:47 > 0:30:49that is not a bad idea.
0:30:49 > 0:30:53OK, hang on to that idea. Meanwhile, for the audience at home,
0:30:53 > 0:30:57let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Natasha's blackboard.
0:30:57 > 0:31:03- OK, Peter. Does this take you back to your schooldays? - Yes, I suppose it does.
0:31:03 > 0:31:08I can certainly remember chalk and blackboard dusters.
0:31:08 > 0:31:13- This is quite a modern object. - Well, it's modern in relative terms.
0:31:13 > 0:31:19We've put an estimate of £20-£40. When you look at it, there's a lot there to make it.
0:31:19 > 0:31:25- It would cost a fortune to buy new. - Yes, exactly. Well, £20-£40 is the estimate.
0:31:25 > 0:31:30Natasha has paid a whole £55 for it. That's it for the Reds.
0:31:30 > 0:31:35Now for the Blues. First up for them is the Whitefriars smoky glass bottle,
0:31:35 > 0:31:40which just about says everything great about 1960s design.
0:31:40 > 0:31:44It does, yeah. Whitefriars is very collectable.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47The bottle vase is not a shape that we see so many of.
0:31:47 > 0:31:53- The colour is not over-inspiring. I mean, it's grey-silver. - Not like orange.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56It's not like your tangerine and bright blues
0:31:56 > 0:32:01that make a bit more of a statement, but we've put 40-60 on it.
0:32:01 > 0:32:06- You don't get many pieces of Whitefriars in that price bracket. - No, for a genuine one
0:32:06 > 0:32:13- that one has no doubt about. Next up, another iconic silversmith. Charles Horner.- Yeah.
0:32:13 > 0:32:21This is a Scottish thistle brooch. It's silver, fully hallmarked. We've put 30-50 on it.
0:32:21 > 0:32:25Based on the maker and the fact it's a silver brooch.
0:32:25 > 0:32:31£30-£50 estimate is splendid because Paul only paid £28.
0:32:31 > 0:32:36Now the profits today are going to be so massive, we'll need an adding machine. A decent one.
0:32:36 > 0:32:42- So you think a Sumlock calculator would be the job?- I think it might.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46There's so many buttons on the top, I'm not sure how you'd use it!
0:32:46 > 0:32:52The skill of the operator in an office, doing a complicated calculation with that thing!
0:32:52 > 0:32:57And given that this is from the 1950s, so it's not that long ago,
0:32:57 > 0:33:03and we have calculators now the size of a business card, it is quite amazing.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07Whether that makes it very collectable or not, I'm not sure.
0:33:07 > 0:33:13We've put an estimate of 20-40 to see if we can wheel in the vintage calculator collectors.
0:33:13 > 0:33:18Very good. £15 paid by Paul, so he's a pretty cunning operator.
0:33:18 > 0:33:23Excellent. I don't think they'll need their bonus buy, but let's look at it anyway.
0:33:23 > 0:33:31Now, Esther and Hossein, what we have under that rag is £197-worth of bonus buy.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34- I love that!- I like that.
0:33:34 > 0:33:39- Oh, good reaction!- I really do. - By the look of it, it's an old telephone.
0:33:39 > 0:33:44- Boy, is it old! 1920s.- 1920, yeah. - Wall-mounting.
0:33:44 > 0:33:50With integral bell. This is from when you'd have a separate bell box.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54- The reason I rate this is that it's usable.- Ah, right.
0:33:54 > 0:34:00- What an interior decorating dream. I think you can tell I like this. - I like it, too.
0:34:00 > 0:34:05- The crucial question... - How much was it?- That's the biggie.
0:34:05 > 0:34:11- If I said £50, would you...? Let me tell you...- What do you think it makes?- At auction,
0:34:11 > 0:34:15- it's cautiously worth 50-80. - OK. Happy with that?
0:34:15 > 0:34:22- I am happy.- I like it. - For the audience at home, let's see what the auctioneer thinks about it.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26- OK, Peter, there's a trunk call for you- I quite like this piece.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28It's in such good original condition.
0:34:28 > 0:34:36It seems to have its old wiring, so it might need some attention to plug it into your modern-day system,
0:34:36 > 0:34:43- but I think it's worth giving it that attention and restoration. - OK, what's it going to be worth?
0:34:43 > 0:34:47We've put 50-80 on this piece to reflect its original condition.
0:34:47 > 0:34:53- I think this is going to do well. - I think so. £50 paid by Paul, so that should turn a profit,
0:34:53 > 0:34:56if they decide to press button A.
0:34:56 > 0:35:01- Anyway, we'll find out in a moment. Very good luck on the rostrum. - Thank you.
0:35:01 > 0:35:07£15. 20 in the balcony. 25 on the 'net. 25 on the balcony.
0:35:07 > 0:35:09Sorry, 30.
0:35:09 > 0:35:12- This is exciting, isn't it?- Very. - First up is your pewter tea set.
0:35:12 > 0:35:2030-50 he's estimated. You paid £35. Next is the Alpine scene box. £18 you paid for that.
0:35:20 > 0:35:26- Yours.- He's put £20-£40. Well done. And then the Tidy Betty, which he's put £30-£50 on.
0:35:26 > 0:35:33£42 was paid for that. So you're in the frame for making a profit on every item. How wonderful is that?
0:35:33 > 0:35:37First up is the pewter tea set and here it comes.
0:35:37 > 0:35:43158 is the pewter tea service. £15 to start it.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46£15 to start. £20 now. £25. £30.
0:35:46 > 0:35:50- £35?- Make one more...
0:35:50 > 0:35:56It's a room bid. Against you on the internet. £30. All finished now?
0:35:56 > 0:36:00- Ah, they've got a bargain! - £30. Minus £5. Bad luck.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03- It could be worse.- Could have been.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06The jewellery box here. At £15.
0:36:06 > 0:36:10Selling at £20. Lady in the second row. At £20.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13At £20 and it's being sold.
0:36:13 > 0:36:16At £20. All done?
0:36:16 > 0:36:22- £20 is plus two. You're currently minus three.- No one's ever been so excited about two quid!
0:36:22 > 0:36:26The cast-iron cottage fire tidy. Do I have £20 bid?
0:36:26 > 0:36:2725 I have. At £25.
0:36:27 > 0:36:2930 for it. At 30.
0:36:29 > 0:36:3335. 40 now. It's going to be sold.
0:36:33 > 0:36:3945. 50? Are you sure? At £45. An internet bidder at £45.
0:36:39 > 0:36:41All done? They're begging you. No? £45.
0:36:41 > 0:36:48£45. Thank goodness for the internet. That's plus three. So, overall, you got absolutely nothing!
0:36:50 > 0:36:54- It's wiped its face.- We did not make a loss.- Exactly right.
0:36:54 > 0:36:59Absolutely nothing could be a winning score. You don't have to go with the bonus buy.
0:36:59 > 0:37:05- There's no shame. There's absolutely nothing. - So we're gambling with shame.
0:37:05 > 0:37:10- Do you want to go?- I like the item. I don't think it'll make a profit.
0:37:10 > 0:37:15- Let's not, then.- We should stick. - Now I can tell you the auctioneer valued it at £20-£40.
0:37:15 > 0:37:23- But it's a very difficult thing to value. We'll sell it anyway. Here it comes.- I would buy it.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27A children's playroom chalkboard. I have commission bids.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31I'm opening at £25. At 30. Five.
0:37:31 > 0:37:35- 40. Five. 50. Five. - No!
0:37:35 > 0:37:39- 70. Five. 80. Five. - What have we done?!
0:37:39 > 0:37:42100. 110. £110 in the second row.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45£110. Being sold now at 110.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47£110!
0:37:47 > 0:37:51- £110.- Well done, you. - No one was expecting that!
0:37:51 > 0:37:55- Well done, you.- Listen, that is magnificent.- Awesome.
0:37:55 > 0:38:02You've got to applaud the girl. She took a punt. She paid £55, doubled your money. That's expertise.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06- That's a proper bonus buy. Sadly... - I said we should have gone with it!
0:38:06 > 0:38:10- Sadly... Paul, you never did! - He never said a word!
0:38:10 > 0:38:16- So, overall, it's a wiped face. No profit, no loss. Just don't say a word to the Blues.- We shan't.
0:38:25 > 0:38:29- OK, you kids. You been talking to the Reds?- No.- No.- Good.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33First up for you is the Whitefriars bottle vase, a smashing thing.
0:38:33 > 0:38:39The citrine thistle what-not for £28 is an absolute bargain. He's put 30-50.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41It should do at least that and more.
0:38:41 > 0:38:48Then you've got the desktop comptometer thing. 20-40 he's put on that. £15 paid.
0:38:48 > 0:38:53It all looks pretty rosy. Then you've got the telephone.
0:38:53 > 0:38:58- OK?- OK.- First up is the Whitefriars bottle vase. Here it comes.
0:38:58 > 0:39:02Lot number 180. Whitefriars bottle vase.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04Lot number 180. At £30.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08Good Whitefriars vase. Five. 40. Five.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11- 50. Five.- Go on!- 60. Five?
0:39:11 > 0:39:16- At £60. All finished?- I don't believe this! It's wiped its face.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18Yes! £60. Wiped its face.
0:39:18 > 0:39:22Now here comes Charles Horner. He'll be all right.
0:39:22 > 0:39:26Charles Horner, hallmarked. This thistle brooch.
0:39:26 > 0:39:32£15 to start. A Charles Horner piece of silver. £20. Five. 30.

0:39:35 > 0:39:38£35. 40. 45. 50.
0:39:38 > 0:39:4155. 60?
0:39:41 > 0:39:44- £55. Right in front of me.- £55!
0:39:44 > 0:39:49- £55.- That's two off 30... Which is 27. Plus 27.
0:39:49 > 0:39:52Thank you very much.
0:39:52 > 0:39:57The calculating machine. Lot 182. Vintage 1950s item.
0:39:57 > 0:40:00£15. £15. £20 I'm bid. At £20.
0:40:00 > 0:40:05- 25, internet bidder. At £25. 30 anywhere?- Pick it up.
0:40:05 > 0:40:09At £25. The internet has the bid. No bidding in the room?
0:40:09 > 0:40:13£25. Goes to the internet. Selling at £25.
0:40:13 > 0:40:19£25 to the internet is plus 10. Thank you very much. That is plus £37.
0:40:19 > 0:40:26Plus £37. How good is that? Now what are you going to do about the phone? You're in profit.
0:40:26 > 0:40:32You don't have anything to worry about. Are you going to go with the wall-mounted phone?
0:40:32 > 0:40:37- We have confidence in it. - You're going to do it?- We are. - We both like it.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40- And here it comes.- 186 now.
0:40:40 > 0:40:47The wall-mounted telephone. Nice lot here. Commission bids opening at £40.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50£40 I'm bid. At £40. 45. 50.
0:40:50 > 0:40:53- Five. 60. Five.- Yes! - At £60 I'm bid.
0:40:53 > 0:40:59At £60. Five can I have? 65. 70. Five. 80.
0:40:59 > 0:41:05At £80 I'm bid. At 85. 90. Selling now at £90.
0:41:05 > 0:41:07All finished at £90 for the lot?
0:41:07 > 0:41:11Well done, guys. You did it!
0:41:11 > 0:41:15- Thank you very much. - That was a good bonus buy.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19A bonus buy and your winnings is 40...77. Plus 77.
0:41:19 > 0:41:23That should be a winning, could be a winning score.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26I can go on holiday!
0:41:34 > 0:41:38Well, it's been a funny old day, hasn't it? Have you been chatting?
0:41:38 > 0:41:43- No.- Not at all. OK, well, it is my duty
0:41:43 > 0:41:48- to reveal today that the runners-up are the Reds.- Awww!
0:41:48 > 0:41:54You managed to go through the whole performance and you got absolutely nowhere, right?
0:41:54 > 0:41:58No profit, no loss. You wiped your face at the end of your three items,
0:41:58 > 0:42:04which ordinarily could be a winning score. Then you had the opportunity of selecting Natasha's bonus buy,
0:42:04 > 0:42:09which you turned down. Then that made £55!
0:42:09 > 0:42:11Her blackboard.
0:42:11 > 0:42:17£55 on the blackboard. So I'm afraid, Kay and Paul, you're back where you started
0:42:17 > 0:42:21- with absolutely nothing. - We've got each other!
0:42:21 > 0:42:25- And you've had, hopefully, a lovely experience.- Brilliant.- Fantastic.
0:42:25 > 0:42:30But the winners are going home as winners with £77 of money.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34There you go, Esther. That's that one and that one.
0:42:34 > 0:42:40You had a £27 profit on Charles Horner, a £10 profit on the desktop comptometer.
0:42:40 > 0:42:47And then, of course, the great Paul Laidlaw came through with another £40 bonus buy boost,
0:42:47 > 0:42:52- which was great.- Well done, guys. - I'll be round for a pizza later.
0:42:52 > 0:42:58- Anyway, it's been such fun. Join us soon for some more bargain hunting. Yes?- Yes!
0:42:58 > 0:43:05I know you're sitting there thinking, "I could have done better than that!" What's stopping you?
0:43:05 > 0:43:09If you think you can spot a bargain, go to our BBC website and apply.
0:43:09 > 0:43:11It'll be splendid to see you.
