0:00:06 > 0:00:11Cor! Have we got a recipe for a great show for you today!

0:00:11 > 0:00:13Take one stately home,

0:00:13 > 0:00:17one Red team, one Blue team, mix them up,

0:00:17 > 0:00:21bake them gas mark 3 for 60 minutes...

0:00:21 > 0:00:25What have you got? Ha! Let's go Bargain Hunting!

0:00:52 > 0:00:55Today we've come to Kedleston Hall,

0:00:55 > 0:00:59for centuries the home for aristocrats,

0:00:59 > 0:01:02but latterly the home to film producers

0:01:02 > 0:01:06who've used it as a backdrop for many a period drama.

0:01:06 > 0:01:12But before I shout, "Action!" why don't we check out today's blockbuster

0:01:12 > 0:01:14featuring the Red and Blue teams?

0:01:15 > 0:01:18On the programme today the Reds aren't quite moving in the same direction.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Oh, Jill, that's horrid!- I know.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Meanwhile the Blue team remain "stationery".

0:01:25 > 0:01:29- It tells you how to put the lead in your pencil, David.- Oh, I say! Well, maybe I do need those, yeah!

0:01:29 > 0:01:32But will it be a write-off at the auction?

0:01:32 > 0:01:35And I'm only bid here... Well, I'm bid...

0:01:35 > 0:01:36nothing.

0:01:36 > 0:01:37Oh!

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Firstly, let's all get acquainted!

0:01:41 > 0:01:47Well, on today's show we've got a married couple versus a pair of chums.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49We've got Jill and Peter for the Reds

0:01:49 > 0:01:53- and Nicola and Jane for the Blues. Hello, everyone.- Hello. - Lovely to see you.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57Now, Peter, when you met Jane, it was love at first sight, right?

0:01:57 > 0:02:00Sort of. She actually hated my guts.

0:02:00 > 0:02:04She was my secretary for a while and spent all her time changing all my work,

0:02:04 > 0:02:07which wound me up even further, so we didn't get on for a long time.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10- Eventually, you fell in love. - Yes, yes.

0:02:10 > 0:02:15- So you're a tax consultant?- Yes. - But to relax, you do something a little less taxing.- Yes.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18- I coach a junior cricket team, an under-15s team...- Mm-hm.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20And also play a thing called badgers hockey,

0:02:20 > 0:02:25which is adults with children to bring them through, let them play...

0:02:25 > 0:02:30We're there to help them and assist them as opposed to actually getting involved too much ourselves.

0:02:30 > 0:02:36That sounds good fun. Now, Jill, you like to spend your leisure time in a particular period of the past.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Regency, I'm a Jane Austen fan.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42So I dress up and we go to a ball once a year where I meet my sisters,

0:02:42 > 0:02:47where we do some Regency dancing and have a ball in the old-fashioned Regency time with a meal, etc,

0:02:47 > 0:02:50- so...- And you like to think of yourselves as the Bennet sisters?

0:02:50 > 0:02:52Very old Bennet sisters, yes.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56- And have you got all the relevant kit to dress up in?- Oh, yes!

0:02:56 > 0:03:00- I've got about five costumes so far. - Have you?- Still growing.- Brilliant.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03- Now, you've worked together in the past.- Yes.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Your husband would have it, not particularly happily...

0:03:06 > 0:03:09How are you going to get on in today's show?

0:03:09 > 0:03:13- I don't know!- We'll see.- It's going to be difficult, is it?- It is. - It's going to be fun.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16- Might there be some sparks, do you think?- Probably, yes.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19Ah! OK. Well, stand by for that and very good luck.

0:03:19 > 0:03:22- Now, Nicola...- Yes.- How is it that you two became friends?

0:03:22 > 0:03:26We met at National Childbirth classes when we were both pregnant... obviously!

0:03:26 > 0:03:30..About 18 years ago. And we've been friends ever since.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33Now, you are an active participant in your village life...

0:03:33 > 0:03:38- I am slightly, yes.- Tell us about it. - I am the secretary of the best village and biggest village hall

0:03:38 > 0:03:39in Fulstow...in Lincolnshire.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42We're great, we've got a massive stage

0:03:42 > 0:03:46and we do a lot of balls and big charity events. It's very popular, the village hall.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51- Well, very worthwhile.- Yeah. - But, Janey, you're particularly keen on your dogs.- I am, yes.

0:03:51 > 0:03:57- Tell us about them.- Well, I've got two at home that I train in agility and obedience,

0:03:57 > 0:04:00we belong to our local club and we do that...

0:04:00 > 0:04:02I've a German shepherd called Mylo

0:04:02 > 0:04:06- and a little poodle cross called Alfie.- And are they very obedient?

0:04:06 > 0:04:08When they want to be, yes.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11What is it about dogs? I tell you...

0:04:11 > 0:04:13There's a bit of a story behind Alfie though, isn't there?

0:04:13 > 0:04:19Yes, just a little bit. I had Mylo and I really was determined that he needed a friend,

0:04:19 > 0:04:23and I heard about somebody who needed to rehome their poodle cross,

0:04:23 > 0:04:25so I thought, "Oh, he'd be perfect," and I brought him home,

0:04:25 > 0:04:31and unfortunately I'd sort of forgot to tell my husband that I was going to bring home another dog,

0:04:31 > 0:04:34- and it took a little while before he spoke to me again.- Really?

0:04:34 > 0:04:36- Yeah, just two days. It was fine. - Oh, that's all right.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40- He loves him now.- You worked everything out.- I did.- Good for you!

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Will you work together as a team? Are you going to spend all your money?

0:04:43 > 0:04:46- Absolutely! Going to spend it all. - Are you?- No!- You're not?

0:04:46 > 0:04:48We're not going to spend it all!

0:04:48 > 0:04:50I can see this is a unified affair and you're going to do very well.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Now the money moment. Here's your cash. £300 apiece.

0:04:53 > 0:04:58- You know the rules, your experts await and off you go!- Thank you. - And very, very good luck.

0:04:59 > 0:05:00I'm quite obedient, me!

0:05:03 > 0:05:06So that's our teams, but what about our experts?

0:05:08 > 0:05:12Hoping to polish off all the profit for the Reds, it's the sterling...

0:05:13 > 0:05:17Driving seat for the Blues, it's that old classic...

0:05:21 > 0:05:25So, Reds, Jill and Peter, this is all terribly exciting, isn't it?

0:05:25 > 0:05:29- So then, you two, are we raring to go?- Oh, yes!- Absolutely on the ball. - Yeah?

0:05:29 > 0:05:33- What are we going to look for today? - A bit of sports memorabilia. That could be good fun.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Sporting memorabilia. What about you, Jill? - Jewellery, a bit of bling.

0:05:36 > 0:05:41- I like Art Nouveau, Art Deco, that sort of thing.- Love it. Nicola, you like that?

0:05:41 > 0:05:44- I'm more into local history, militaria stuff...- Oh?

0:05:44 > 0:05:48- I like my dead people.- Excellent! OK, that's really interesting.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51- Seems like there's going to be a bit of a conflict here.- Probably.- Yeah. - Love it!

0:05:51 > 0:05:54- We're not going to have any arguments, are we?- Definitely!

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Definitely?- I never agree with what he says, so...- Oh, dear!

0:05:58 > 0:06:02- Right...- Yeah.- I think we better get cracking, come on.- OK.- Yeah.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05- 60 minutes. Let's go now.- OK.- OK.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Conflict!

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Arguments!

0:06:09 > 0:06:10Crikey! This'll be fun!

0:06:12 > 0:06:16- So do you collect, Jill?- Giraffes. - Oh, giraffes?

0:06:16 > 0:06:19- Anything to do with giraffes. - Why giraffes?

0:06:19 > 0:06:22I just think they're so lovely, tall and elegant and really cute.

0:06:23 > 0:06:25- I've brought you two victims. - Oh, yeah?- Yeah.

0:06:29 > 0:06:30That one's engraved.

0:06:31 > 0:06:36- Well, Walker & Hall, really good high-quality Sheffield maker... - Uh-huh.

0:06:36 > 0:06:39- ..of silver plate, so we know they're silverplated.- Yeah.

0:06:39 > 0:06:42- You see, there you go. So Malvern Priory Choir...- It's 39.- OK.

0:06:42 > 0:06:47- Engraving kills the value...- Yeah. - Unless it's someone of note.

0:06:47 > 0:06:53- Yeah.- Right.- You know, if that was Winston Churchill, circa 1909, it's worth £2,000.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57- Mm-hm.- But it's worth 30 quid because this person was a member of a choir.

0:06:57 > 0:07:02- We don't know who the choirmaster was, we don't know who that person was and no-one's interested.- No.

0:07:02 > 0:07:03That's the thing.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05That's rather harsh, David.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Where I used to work we had thousands of these things.- Oh, really?

0:07:10 > 0:07:15- Where did you work?- At the accountants I worked in, we had all the company seals.- Oh, right.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19- There were loads of these everywhere. That's what that would be.- So you'd have the company seal

0:07:19 > 0:07:22- under here?- It goes in there. - You take this out for each... - Each seal.

0:07:22 > 0:07:26- But they've obviously sealed it there.- So what did you do if you were using those all the time?

0:07:26 > 0:07:30- The accountants, if there's any legal documents...- It's bringing back memories, is it?- Yeah.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33- Getting all sentimental, are you? - Most of these were used to hold doors open!

0:07:33 > 0:07:36Yes, it is a very good doorstop. It's pretty heavy.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39Now, there's a turn up for the books.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41Pete teaching Catherine a thing or two!

0:07:42 > 0:07:45And it seems the roles have been reversed in the Blue camp too.

0:07:46 > 0:07:52- It looks Art Nouveau shape to me. - Mm-hm.- Because of the sort of sinuous curves that are in there,

0:07:52 > 0:07:57- and the art shapes.- Yeah.- I'd have thought 1920, 1930...- Yeah. - But I really...

0:07:57 > 0:08:00- It's got a bronzed effect, hasn't it?- Yes, exactly. - It's not bronze, is it?- No, no.

0:08:00 > 0:08:04- Have you got it?- Yeah. - I don't want to let it go!

0:08:04 > 0:08:10It's almost got a Japanese look to it, almost like an Aesthetic Movement Japanese late-19C bronze.

0:08:10 > 0:08:15So it's Art Nouveau. You're absolutely bang-on, made by Bretby.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Is that "England" or "Made in England"?- Made in England.

0:08:18 > 0:08:24- "Made in England". OK. If it's just stamped England, we know it's after 1891 and not earlier. Yeah?- Right.

0:08:24 > 0:08:30- If it's stamped "Made in England" that dates it to First World War or later.- I said 1920.

0:08:30 > 0:08:34- You were right.- You were, yeah. - So it's actually post-1920.

0:08:34 > 0:08:39Where, we don't actually know. But we know the design is uber-stylish. Nicola, do you agree?

0:08:39 > 0:08:43- I do, actually. I really like it.- Mmm. - Now the million-dollar question.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Yeah, is it a million dollars? That's the problem.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48It could be within your budget, I'm sure.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Oh, he's tempting! Listen to him, he's tempting.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55- So, £20?- Yes, all right, I'll have it at £20. I'll have to...

0:08:56 > 0:08:58- Go on, I'll do it for £20 for you. - What?- Yeah.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01- Has he said yes to that?- He has!

0:09:01 > 0:09:02Quick! Shake on it!

0:09:02 > 0:09:06- Yes, you can have it for that.- Well, I think that's remarkably cheap. I was only joking there.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- OK. Are you happy...? - I'm happy with that!

0:09:09 > 0:09:12- I got it at a reasonable price, I'll put it out at a reasonable price. - Nice man!

0:09:12 > 0:09:14- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15Thank you very much.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Well, I wish I'd said seven, but there you go.

0:09:17 > 0:09:21Now, now, David! Still possible room for profit, even at £20.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23Well, that's very good, a lovely purchase,

0:09:23 > 0:09:26- and you have bought what you love, and that is fantastic.- Exactly.

0:09:26 > 0:09:28- Nicola, do you love it now? - I do.- Marvellous.

0:09:28 > 0:09:32- She's into Art Nouveau!- That's me done. Got to find something for you.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35- Put it down...- Without breaking it. - Let's get you to buy something now. Thank you.

0:09:35 > 0:09:40Barely ten minutes gone and item 1 from the Blue shopping list is bagged.

0:09:40 > 0:09:44But already there's dissension over in the Red camp.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48- What's that? - Cane handle with rubber.- Any good?

0:09:48 > 0:09:52Not really, no. It's pretty old, but I don't think it'll get anywhere.

0:09:52 > 0:09:55That's quite ugly-looking, but sometimes that means money.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59- Oh, Jill, that's horrid!- I know. I said it was ugly-looking.- Oh!

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Oh, I like that.

0:10:01 > 0:10:04- No.- Oh, look...- Big chip. - Chips, yeah.- No.- Forget that.

0:10:04 > 0:10:09- Right, we've had probably about 15 minutes.- OK. - Yeah.- Nearing 20 minutes.- Right.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12We need a "wam bam thank you ma'am".

0:10:12 > 0:10:16She's right. You do need to get one under your belt soon, Reds!

0:10:16 > 0:10:19Meanwhile there's unexpected harmony with the Blues.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Well, I think it certainly has a French Lalique look to it.

0:10:23 > 0:10:28- Yeah.- If that was Lalique and it was £160, I'd be off!- Yeah. - You wouldn't see me for dust!

0:10:28 > 0:10:32Absolutely. I'd love to see "R Lalique" under there.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Wouldn't that be nice? - It's hidden behind the sticker!

0:10:35 > 0:10:36Oh!

0:10:36 > 0:10:37- But it isn't.- Czech?- I like it.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39- I think it is Czech.- Two horses.

0:10:39 > 0:10:44- You think it's Czech?- I think... it's a copy of a Lalique which would cost you 4,000 quid.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47- Yeah.- For something like that.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51- A quick interesting point here. Something to remember if ever you're out and you see Lalique...- Yes?

0:10:51 > 0:10:57- If it says "R Lalique" we know that it was made pre-1945. - Yeah.- Right.

0:10:57 > 0:11:03- If it was "Lalique", nothing else, it was made after Rene died in 1945. - Right.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05- And the difference is quite great in price.- Oh, right.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08If something's made within his lifetime whilst he was still breathing,

0:11:08 > 0:11:12even if it's exactly the same as something made a year later, it's worth substantially more.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16- And you couldn't find it on the bottom there?- Can you scratch on "R Lalique"?- Yeah.

0:11:16 > 0:11:21Fact after fact after fact, David really is on fire today!

0:11:23 > 0:11:28- Catherine, what do you think of these? Because they are giraffes. - Ah, the giraffe theme!- Yeah.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Well done for spotting something with a giraffe on.- Yeah.

0:11:31 > 0:11:35- I'll tell you exactly what I think. I think these are spelter, they're not bronze.- Yeah.

0:11:35 > 0:11:43Bookends on marble bases. I would say they've got the Deco style, but I don't think they are 1930s.

0:11:43 > 0:11:44I think they're much later.

0:11:44 > 0:11:49- If they were Deco, I think you'd be...yes, you would have found something quite good.- Yeah.

0:11:49 > 0:11:55- But I think probably...- OK. - How much is on...?- Er...- 65.- 65.

0:11:55 > 0:11:59Yeah...that's a lot of money, isn't it? I don't think we're going to make a profit on that, are we?

0:11:59 > 0:12:01- No, no.- Let's move on.- I think we'll leave it and move on?

0:12:01 > 0:12:03- I don't think they'll come down enough.- OK.

0:12:03 > 0:12:07I thought we'd struck gold there! Well, spelter...

0:12:08 > 0:12:14If browsing, perusing and deliberating were Olympic sports,

0:12:14 > 0:12:17our Reds would be triple gold medallists!

0:12:21 > 0:12:25- You do like your glass, you two. - Yes.- And this one is signed.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29- Oh, yes, OK.- Olfons...- Is it Orrefors?- Orrefors, is it?- Yeah.

0:12:29 > 0:12:32- Put the... Sorry, they are sharing glasses.- The shared glasses.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35I've lost mine.

0:12:35 > 0:12:39- Right, tell me why you like that, Nicola.- I just think it's really simple and really nice

0:12:39 > 0:12:41- and clean.- Is that why you like Jane?

0:12:41 > 0:12:45Yes, she's simple. She's not particularly clean, but she's simple.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48Although neither of us are... Is it a make that you know?

0:12:48 > 0:12:52- Yes, I do. I recognise it, Orrefors, I think it is, isn't it? Yeah?- Yeah.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55OK, so signed. Datewise...let's test you.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57What do we reckon?

0:12:57 > 0:13:02- '60s.- Either very late '60s or mid-'70s.- You say '70s?

0:13:02 > 0:13:06- I think bang-on, don't you agree? - Yeah.- They're pretty good, these two.- They are.- They're pretty good.

0:13:06 > 0:13:10- Now, then, shall we see if it rings like a bell?- Oh, go on, then.- OK.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14If it rings like a church bell, it's in immaculately mint condition. Ready?

0:13:14 > 0:13:16CLANG!

0:13:16 > 0:13:19- That's not bad.- That is... Not bad? It's fantastic!

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- That's as good as any church bell I've ever heard! - CLANG!

0:13:22 > 0:13:24You've not been to my village!

0:13:25 > 0:13:29Let's have a look at the wear. Little scratches on the base there with some wear.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Which is good, it's exactly what you want to see.

0:13:31 > 0:13:35- I think it's very plain, but yet incredibly sophisticated. - I do, I think it's lovely.

0:13:35 > 0:13:39- It'd fit into any room. - It's not exactly local history, but I think it really is lovely.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42- If you like it, it's all down to price, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:13:42 > 0:13:47And this lady with the wonderful glasses is in a good mood, I reckon.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50- Er...- What's trade on that for us?

0:13:50 > 0:13:52- Right... - Put it down for me.

0:13:52 > 0:13:58Because I like to help you guys out, I'll go down to 25 for that. Daren't go down any more.

0:13:58 > 0:14:01- 25.- 25? OK. Do you fancy it? She's going to...

0:14:01 > 0:14:04Could you do it for 20?

0:14:04 > 0:14:06I honestly couldn't do it for 20.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08- Do you want to come back to it?- Yes.

0:14:08 > 0:14:1024.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12Aw! I think it's a great buy at 24.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- Yeah, go on. We'll go for 24. - Marvellous. Thank you very much.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17- That was really lovely of you. - You're welcome.

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Thank you very much. - I appreciate it, thank you.

0:14:20 > 0:14:21Good, that's the Nicola buy. Fantastic!

0:14:21 > 0:14:25- And it's got nothing to do with dead people.- No... - Well, I'm very encouraged.

0:14:25 > 0:14:29- Let's go and buy a joint buy.- See if we can find something we both like.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34That's 2-0 to the Blues. Come on, you Reds!

0:14:35 > 0:14:39- How about those little doggy cufflinks?- They're quite sweet, aren't they?

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Under-glass painted cufflinks. They've got little terriers.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46They're probably about 1930s in date.

0:14:46 > 0:14:49Quite cute, I should think quite commercial, fairly saleable.

0:14:50 > 0:14:54- Somebody will buy those. - People like dogs.- People go after dogs, don't they?- Yeah.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58- How much are they? - Well, they've got £30 on them which seems quite reasonable.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01- It would be nice if they were gold, but they're not.- They're not.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05- They're plated, they're rolled gold. - But the price reflects that, doesn't it?- Yes.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07- The only thing about this one... - They are useable?

0:15:07 > 0:15:09There's a hole on it.

0:15:09 > 0:15:14- There is a little tiny bit of... - Flaw.- Yeah, above the head.- Mmm.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16Just there, there's a little bit of damage.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18- Do you like them, Peter?- They're quite nice.- They are, yeah.

0:15:18 > 0:15:20I can see people using them at least.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22What could the cufflinks be?

0:15:22 > 0:15:24What's your best price?

0:15:25 > 0:15:27You've got 30 on them there.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30- Well, I did hear you say they were cheap...- No, I didn't say that!

0:15:30 > 0:15:33She didn't say that! "Cheap" wasn't the word.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35I said they were reasonable.

0:15:35 > 0:15:37Oh, you can have them for 20.

0:15:37 > 0:15:3820?

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- What do you think?- Could you do 15?

0:15:42 > 0:15:45- £5 isn't going to make much difference.- On the mortgage!

0:15:45 > 0:15:48You can have them for 15 so the dog doesn't get fed for a month!

0:15:48 > 0:15:50Aw! Thank you.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52I'm sorry, dog.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56- Do you want them?- Yeah.- Yes, please. - Bit of fun?- Yeah.- For £15.

0:15:56 > 0:15:57- Yeah.- First item in the bag.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59Thanks. Thank you.

0:15:59 > 0:16:01- Well done, Catherine. Thank you. - Thank you very much.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03Thank you.

0:16:03 > 0:16:04Great bargaining, team.

0:16:04 > 0:16:08But with one item bought with 30 minutes gone, you'll have to get a move on,

0:16:08 > 0:16:11because the Blues could be homing in on their final buy.

0:16:11 > 0:16:13Right, let me take it out.

0:16:14 > 0:16:20And...we'll hand it to Jane. Tell us why you love that one, then.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22Well, it's just different and it's practical...

0:16:22 > 0:16:25- Oh, it's engraved.- Are you actually using those glasses?

0:16:25 > 0:16:28- I am actually using them.- Can you actually see anything?- Yeah.- Oh.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30They're about...they're about right for me, actually.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35"BSS, Sept 21st 1941".

0:16:35 > 0:16:38Let's have a look. We have sterling silver...

0:16:38 > 0:16:41Life Long is the brand of pencil.

0:16:41 > 0:16:45So it's a lead pencil and it's sterling silver,

0:16:45 > 0:16:49which means that it's of the same standard as British hallmarked silver,

0:16:49 > 0:16:53- but it wasn't made in Britain. - I would have thought American. - Probably American.

0:16:53 > 0:16:57- What do you think it's worth? - 20 quid.- 20 quid, eh?- No, 10.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59OK. 10? You two, honestly!

0:17:00 > 0:17:05- But what's lovely about it is its box.- Yeah, and instructions. - And instructions.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07- Absolutely. - It's never been used, has it?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10- It's been presented to somebody and they've kept it in a drawer. - Totally.

0:17:10 > 0:17:16And I could give you umpteen examples of pieces that sell for three or four times their value

0:17:16 > 0:17:18- because they have a box.- Right.

0:17:18 > 0:17:24Particularly with toys, boxes are worth generally more in good condition than the items.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26- Do you want me to get a price while you chat about it?- Go on, then.- OK.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35What do you want to buy?

0:17:35 > 0:17:36I'll know when I see it.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38You'll know when you see it?

0:17:38 > 0:17:41- Right.- That's always the way. - That's the way.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43It's like they still have an hour left, isn't it?

0:17:45 > 0:17:49- Right, I brought the lovely owner. - Hello.- Hello.- Here she is.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53I'm just saying, I love the fact it's got the directions and everything with it, look.

0:17:53 > 0:17:57- What, how to write?- David! - Do you need directions?

0:17:58 > 0:18:02- It tells you how to put the lead in your pencil, David.- Oh, I say! Well, maybe I do need those, yeah!

0:18:03 > 0:18:05Right, what are we thinking, ladies?

0:18:06 > 0:18:10Well, we were interested in finding out what the best price was.

0:18:10 > 0:18:1245 seems a little bit too much.

0:18:12 > 0:18:1640? You couldn't bring it down to, like, 25?

0:18:16 > 0:18:20- No, no, no.- You don't even want it for 25?- No.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22- 30.- 30? 25?

0:18:22 > 0:18:2428.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- Sold!- You're going to hate me. - She's glaring at me now, isn't she?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30- £3 now. - 28.

0:18:30 > 0:18:33- You're very good.- Go on, then. Shall we say yes? - For 25.- If you're happy.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36- I'm still saying 25.- Oh, OK.

0:18:37 > 0:18:41- Go on, 25, just the £3. - That's my line!

0:18:42 > 0:18:43It's your line.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48- OK, 25.- Lovely!- All right. - Thank you very much.

0:18:48 > 0:18:51Yet another bargaining masterclass from the Blue team.

0:18:51 > 0:18:55- Well, that is a joint purchase. I think we're all happy with that. - Yes.- There you go.

0:18:55 > 0:18:59It's a good-looking piece and it's good quality, and its original box, fantastic. Well done.

0:18:59 > 0:19:04- Well done.- OK. Thank you.- Teas are on me.- Oh!- Lovely, thank you. - A nice cup of tea.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07And well-earned too! Milk, no sugar, for me, please, David.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10Now, is anything brewing with those Reds?

0:19:12 > 0:19:15- So they're ice tongs.- Right. - A good mechanism there.

0:19:15 > 0:19:18- By Jacques Adnet.- Yeah.- So French...

0:19:18 > 0:19:22- Ow! They do...- Do they work? - They do work.- Do they do the job?

0:19:22 > 0:19:25- Look at the price tag, though.- 135.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28- 135.- Oh, that's a lot of money! - It's a lot of money, isn't it?

0:19:28 > 0:19:34- We can treat you well.- You can treat me well? You're going to have to treat me extremely well for that!

0:19:34 > 0:19:37- 70 buys them.- The thing is, who uses ice tongs now?- I know.

0:19:37 > 0:19:41- It's a lot of money, even at 70. - I mean, you'd have to have a really fancy bar

0:19:41 > 0:19:43to have something like that.

0:19:43 > 0:19:47That's why they're so relevant, because there are so many people buying this sort of thing now,

0:19:47 > 0:19:53- setting out a Deco room, with a Deco bar.- Yeah, I can see that.- It's perfect for that sort of thing.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56What do we want to do? Are you happy? You're not happy, are you?

0:19:56 > 0:19:59I'm not happy with the price, I'm happy with the item, but not with the price.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Do you think you could do a bit better, Peter?

0:20:02 > 0:20:04How about 55?

0:20:04 > 0:20:05Can you go 55?

0:20:05 > 0:20:07I really need 60.

0:20:10 > 0:20:1259?

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Yeah, I'll go 59.

0:20:14 > 0:20:17- 59, he'll take 59.- Yeah, I'm not going to argue for a pound.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19- 59?- We'll take them. - We'll take them.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21- OK.- Thank you. - A decision has been made!

0:20:21 > 0:20:24- You happy with that?- Thank you very much.- You're welcome.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25Thank you.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28- Something unusual. - Thank you very much. Thank you.

0:20:28 > 0:20:30That's number 2 with ten minutes left.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Is that enough time to land your third?

0:20:41 > 0:20:45What is quite nice here is the colours, the green enamel,

0:20:45 > 0:20:47which is really quite striking.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50- These lovely big fans coming out on the side...- Yeah.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54- This lovely big sort of tail at the bottom.- Aquarium fish.- Yeah. - It's all marcasite.

0:20:54 > 0:20:59- I mean, it's semiprecious, but it's got a look, hasn't it, about it? - It has.

0:20:59 > 0:21:04And the stallholder is willing to come down from £45 to £27.

0:21:04 > 0:21:05What do you think, then?

0:21:05 > 0:21:10- Yeah.- Are you happy at that? - I'm happy at 27, yeah.- Right, OK. Happy?- Yeah.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13- That's it all done. Finished. - Thank you very much.

0:21:13 > 0:21:17So, with mere moments left, that's their third and final buy.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20And no sign of that early promise of conflict either.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24Tempus fugit! Cor, time flies!

0:21:24 > 0:21:27In fact, time's up. Let's check out what the Red team bought, eh?

0:21:27 > 0:21:30The Red team buttoned up their first purchase

0:21:30 > 0:21:32with the doggy cufflinks for £15.

0:21:33 > 0:21:38Next up are the Art Deco ice tongs for a cool £59.

0:21:39 > 0:21:44And following closely behind is the 1940s enamel fish brooch for £27.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49- Well, isn't it lovely to be down by the water? - A bit cooler.- A bit cooler.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51- What was your favourite piece? - The ice tongs.

0:21:51 > 0:21:55- Do you agree with that?- Yes, I do. - Lovely. And which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?

0:21:55 > 0:21:58- I think the cufflinks.- Do you? - Yes, I do.- All right.

0:21:58 > 0:22:03- And I think the brooch.- And what did you spend overall?- £101. - Is that all?

0:22:03 > 0:22:05Yes, I know. Terrible, isn't it?

0:22:05 > 0:22:08Well, I don't know about that. Are they going to be 101 profitable pounds?

0:22:08 > 0:22:10- Well, I hope so.- We can but hope.

0:22:10 > 0:22:14- So I'd like £199 of leftover lolly, please.- There you go.- Thank you. - And...three, four.

0:22:14 > 0:22:16That is a huge amount...

0:22:16 > 0:22:22put straight across to somebody who's very expert at converting it into profit, aren't you, Catherine?

0:22:22 > 0:22:26I'd really like to buy you a giraffe, Jill, but I'm not sure that it's going to happen.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30- It's OK.- I will try, but I can't guarantee.- OK.

0:22:30 > 0:22:34OK. Well, good luck with your quest. Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought?

0:22:34 > 0:22:39First up, they picked up the Art Deco Bretby vase for £20.

0:22:40 > 0:22:45Next, they bought the Orrefors fruit bowl for a smashing £24.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Finally, they bagged the sterling silver pencil and box

0:22:49 > 0:22:51for just £25.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54- Well, you two girls, that was good, wasn't it?- Yes.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56I mean, a whole hour with David Harper. What could be nicer?

0:22:56 > 0:22:59- What more could a girl want? - On such a lovely day.

0:22:59 > 0:23:02- Now, which is your favourite piece? - Probably the Bretby vase, I think. - Is it?- Yes.

0:23:02 > 0:23:06- Do you agree with that, Nic? - No, I like the glass fruit bowl. - Do you?- Definitely.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09- That's your favourite? Will that bring the biggest profit?- I don't think so.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13- What's going to bring the biggest profit?- Hopefully the vase. - You reckon?- Yeah.- All right.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16- And what did you spend?- £69.

0:23:16 > 0:23:22£69? Which is one shy of 70, that would be 31... £231, I'd like, please.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24- There you go.- £231.- There you go.

0:23:24 > 0:23:30- I don't believe this, David. - I've no idea what to do with £231, I've no idea at all!

0:23:30 > 0:23:33- You could go on a short break. - Something marvellous. - I could go on a cruise!

0:23:33 > 0:23:37- We don't want that, but hopefully you'll blow the lot on something spectacular.- I'll try!

0:23:37 > 0:23:39That's what we're waiting for.

0:23:39 > 0:23:44Now, one of my previous finds left me feeling very lucky indeed.

0:23:50 > 0:23:56If you're a metal detectorist and you do a lot of detecting out in fields,

0:23:56 > 0:23:58what do you do with all your finds?

0:23:58 > 0:24:03Well, a surprising number of them finish up in antique fairs like this...

0:24:04 > 0:24:06..including these two little pieces.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10Now, the dealer I found these with

0:24:10 > 0:24:12tells me that they were dug up in a field

0:24:12 > 0:24:16just by Scone Palace in Scotland.

0:24:16 > 0:24:20This token I am particularly chuffed to have found.

0:24:20 > 0:24:27It's got that kind of creamy-brown patination on it which indicates that it's come out of the ground

0:24:27 > 0:24:29after a considerable period,

0:24:29 > 0:24:31and it says, "Lucky charm.

0:24:31 > 0:24:38"This charm will not work unless you read the comic papers Chips, ha'penny,

0:24:38 > 0:24:40"and The Wonder, a ha'penny."

0:24:40 > 0:24:46The comic Chips had a long production run between the 1880s and the 1950s,

0:24:46 > 0:24:51and I would date this particular token at about 1900,

0:24:51 > 0:24:54one of the reasons being that it's made of solid lead,

0:24:54 > 0:25:00which is not such a friendly material to use for tokens to give to children!

0:25:01 > 0:25:04On the other side it's got a delicious message. It says,

0:25:04 > 0:25:12"This charm, if carried in the pocket, prevents bad heads, severe slips,

0:25:12 > 0:25:18"warts in the nose, burns, pains in the big toe and punctured tyres."

0:25:18 > 0:25:22What's it worth? I should think it's probably worth a £5 note.

0:25:22 > 0:25:28What did it cost? £3. Not a big profit there, but what a charming object.

0:25:28 > 0:25:32The next fellow is rather more interesting and I think a bit older.

0:25:32 > 0:25:35It too is made of lead.

0:25:36 > 0:25:42Discovered in the same field in Scotland, and it's in the form of a head.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45What we've got underneath is a double ring

0:25:45 > 0:25:49which looks a bit like a slave's necklet,

0:25:49 > 0:25:53and indeed this thing dates back to the period of slavery.

0:25:54 > 0:26:00It's hollow underneath and may well have been used as a terminal on some sort of instrument.

0:26:00 > 0:26:04What's it worth? Well, the dealer charged rather more for this, £9.

0:26:04 > 0:26:09But if it does date back to the 18th century, it's got to be worth £40 or £50.

0:26:10 > 0:26:11Keep looking!

0:26:12 > 0:26:16With all that done and dusted, let's head off to the saleroom.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21Well, we've not shifted far, we've stayed in Derbyshire.

0:26:21 > 0:26:27In fact we've come down the road from Kedleston to Etwall, to Charles Hanson's excellent establishment.

0:26:27 > 0:26:29- Charles.- Morning, Tim. - How lovely to be here.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Now, we've got a funny old selection today.

0:26:32 > 0:26:36Jill and Peter have gone with the novelty cufflinks of the little terriers,

0:26:36 > 0:26:39which are on the edge of something you'd buy in Woolworth's.

0:26:39 > 0:26:43Yeah... I think if you look beyond the gilt-metal finish, they are terriers,

0:26:43 > 0:26:48- and there's lots of ladies who come to auction, they like small dogs. - Yes.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51And, er, I don't know, a perfect pair of cufflinks for a lady or a gent.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53- They're just jazzy. - What are they worth now?

0:26:53 > 0:26:55We've put a guide price on them,

0:26:55 > 0:26:59because there's a bit of love for terriers in Derbyshire, between £30 and £40.

0:26:59 > 0:27:01- Have you really?- Yes, we have. - Good gosh!

0:27:01 > 0:27:05- Jill paid £15, so she'll be delighted.- Well, hopefully.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08Next up are these rather unusual ice cube nips.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Tim, they are just so advanced for their period.

0:27:10 > 0:27:16- They look so streamlined they could be '80s or '70s. They are so cool! - I agree.

0:27:16 > 0:27:18- Cool, cool, cool.- Very cool. - How much?

0:27:18 > 0:27:22They're really great, Tim, and we've put a guide price on of between £30 and £50.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25- If we can nurture a really young... - Did you say 30 to 50?- Yes.

0:27:25 > 0:27:30- Not quite cool enough.- No?- £59 they need to make. They paid up for them,

0:27:30 > 0:27:34but I can understand that because find another pair, frankly. They're rare, aren't they?

0:27:34 > 0:27:37- They've got style.- They've got style. Exactly. Like you, Charles.

0:27:37 > 0:27:41Now, this fish thing is very strange, really, isn't it?

0:27:41 > 0:27:47It's marcasite and silver and enamel, there's a certain amount of work and effort gone into it,

0:27:47 > 0:27:50but such an oddball thing to wear as a brooch.

0:27:50 > 0:27:54It is, Tim, but importantly it's in good condition. The enamelling is good, as you say...

0:27:54 > 0:27:59- It's costume jewellery, isn't it? - Yeah, but to a fish lover, maybe to a fisherman, it's different.- Good.

0:27:59 > 0:28:04- How much?- Tim, our guide price on it between £25 and £35.

0:28:04 > 0:28:08- You are an excellent man, Charles Hanson. £27 paid.- Great.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10So we've got some pretty encouraging estimates, though.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14- They only paid £101 so they can't expect a massive return.- No.

0:28:14 > 0:28:18Slightly depends on how these ice tongs do, really.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21Based on that, they'll either need their bonus buy or not, so let's go and have a look at it.

0:28:22 > 0:28:27Jill, Peter, this is the moment. You gave your girl £199.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29Catherine, what did you spend it all on?

0:28:29 > 0:28:30You look petrified!

0:28:31 > 0:28:35- It's not that bad, I promise you. Are you ready? - It is pointy, isn't it?

0:28:35 > 0:28:39- Oh, that's lovely!- Oh, I love you! - Oh!

0:28:39 > 0:28:42- You can have it as well! That's very nice of you.- That is gorgeous.

0:28:42 > 0:28:47- Thank you. Well, we did talk about getting you a giraffe! Not quite a giraffe...- It's neckish!

0:28:47 > 0:28:52- It's neckish.- It's sort of more swanlike.- I could see claret in that.- Yeah.- Can you?- Yeah!

0:28:52 > 0:28:55- Yeah.- You're a man after my own heart.- Or port.- Yes.

0:28:55 > 0:28:58- I'd like to think...is it silver? - Silver plate.- How much?

0:28:58 > 0:29:03- I paid £40 for that.- That's nice, - That's not bad.- £40?

0:29:03 > 0:29:05I didn't think that was too bad, actually.

0:29:05 > 0:29:07How much do you think it's going to make?

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Ba-ba-ba...

0:29:10 > 0:29:11OK.

0:29:11 > 0:29:17- On a good day that could make £60, I think.- Right.- Or £70.

0:29:17 > 0:29:23- Or 70. On a not-so-good day...- It's a small profit.- ..it could make £20.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26- I think that's the point. - It's a silverplated claret jug, but it's a jolly nice one.

0:29:26 > 0:29:30- It's a lovely one. You've done us proud.- Good.- Well, you don't pick now, you pick later

0:29:30 > 0:29:34after the sale of the first three items, but right now for the audience at home,

0:29:34 > 0:29:37let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's decanter.

0:29:38 > 0:29:42- Well, well, well, look at that. - Well, Tim, that's neat, isn't it? - Isn't it nice?

0:29:42 > 0:29:48- Doesn't it look like a duck?- Yeah. Tim, I just wish it had hallmarks on and it was Victorian, 1884...- Yes.

0:29:48 > 0:29:54- And it was by...- Crichton. - ..Retailed by Asprey's, and it would be worth probably £10,000.

0:29:54 > 0:29:57- Could be, couldn't it?- Yeah.- How much, then, for this work of art?

0:29:57 > 0:30:00Tim, we've put a guide price on of between £30 and £50.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03Well, I think that's very fair. £40 was paid by Catherine.

0:30:03 > 0:30:09And quite frankly to have such a satisfactory object for only £40 retail,

0:30:09 > 0:30:13- I think it's just brilliant. - Is it for port or claret or...? - Whatever you like.

0:30:13 > 0:30:16Port or starboard! Anyway, that's it for the Reds.

0:30:16 > 0:30:17Now for the Blues.

0:30:17 > 0:30:20And the Blues have got a wacky lot.

0:30:20 > 0:30:25- First up is the Bretby Clanta vase. Now, Bretby's just down the road from here, isn't it?- It is, Tim.

0:30:25 > 0:30:32And, of course, Bretby were really renowned for producing really quite modernist designs and forms.

0:30:32 > 0:30:38And what I like about this almost bronzed effect metalware vase is the fact...

0:30:38 > 0:30:43- You can't believe it's ceramic, can you?- You tap it, Tim, and you think it's going to sound metally,

0:30:43 > 0:30:46and it doesn't, it's pot, and that's the joy of Bretby.

0:30:46 > 0:30:51It's got presence, I think. And Bretby, generally speaking, doesn't make a lot of money, does it?

0:30:51 > 0:30:55Well, I tend to disagree. I quite like Bretby, it is undervalued for its design,

0:30:55 > 0:31:00and I'm sure in years to come we'll look back at these forms and say, "Goodness me, they were cheap!"

0:31:00 > 0:31:03Yes. This could be Charles Hanson's tip for the future.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06That's it, Tim. Buy Bretby now, because I feel... Look at it!

0:31:06 > 0:31:10- OK, what's your estimate? - Tim, we've put a guide price on of between £20 and £30,

0:31:10 > 0:31:15- and I feel it will make more.- You do? - Mmm.- Perfect. Well, £20 was paid by Jane,

0:31:15 > 0:31:17- and I think she paid the right price, excellent.- Good.

0:31:17 > 0:31:22Next is the fruit bowl. What a lovely thumping lump of glass you get there!

0:31:22 > 0:31:25I think it's marvellous. £24 our lot paid.

0:31:25 > 0:31:29It has a lovely etch mark, has a lovely degree of wear to the base, we know its history,

0:31:29 > 0:31:33- and our guide price, between £40 and £60.- Well, I think that's the right estimate. Well done.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37- Good. Next is the sterling silver propelling pencil.- Mmm.

0:31:37 > 0:31:43Which was given to children traditionally on their christenings or their 21st or something or other.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46It's got an inscription on it, but dating from 1941.

0:31:46 > 0:31:50You go back to September the 21st 1941. Where was our country, Tim?

0:31:50 > 0:31:52- Oh, in a terrible pickle, I can tell you!- Yeah.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56And you would not think in the middle of that pickle somebody would be going into a shop

0:31:56 > 0:32:00and buying a silver propelling pencil and then paying to have the initials put on it.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02That's what is so extraordinary.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04That's why these objects bring history to life.

0:32:04 > 0:32:09- Maybe, Tim, it was a war baby having their initials and birth date put on. - Exactly.

0:32:09 > 0:32:11And, you know, lost in time, Tim.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13£25 paid. What's it going to make?

0:32:13 > 0:32:19Tim, I will happily, hopefully say to you, it's going to make a profit with a guide price of between £25 and £35.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21And that is terribly reasonable, isn't it?

0:32:21 > 0:32:24On that happy note, I don't think they will need the bonus buy

0:32:24 > 0:32:26but let's go and have a look at it.

0:32:26 > 0:32:32Nicola, Jane, you only spent the £69. You gave £231 to David Harper. What did you spend it on, David?

0:32:32 > 0:32:34- Did you give me all that money? - Certainly did!- Gave you loads.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37- And what did you just say to me? - I said, "I hope he's spent it all."

0:32:37 > 0:32:42- You hope he's spent it all. Watch her lips. She said, "I hope he's spent it all!"- OK.

0:32:42 > 0:32:44Do you really? OK.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46Do you still hope I spent it all?

0:32:46 > 0:32:47No.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52- So who loves it, who hates it?- I hate it.- Oh! Do you know what it is?

0:32:52 > 0:32:55- It's a...- Piggy bank.

0:32:55 > 0:33:01It's an early 20th-century style American cast-iron piggy bank, but it's very special.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04Watch this. Put your coin inside the cannon...

0:33:04 > 0:33:05And go...!

0:33:06 > 0:33:08- Oh!- Oh!- Isn't that fantastic?

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Have a feel of that. Early 20th-century in style...

0:33:10 > 0:33:16Whether it is early 20th-century... we're struggling to decipher it, really.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19- But it's got some age and it's fun. - OK, million-dollar question.

0:33:19 > 0:33:22- How much did you spend? - How much would you spend on it?

0:33:22 > 0:33:24Well, £231 you had, actually.

0:33:24 > 0:33:27- I'd have spent a fiver.- Oh, you horror, you absolute horror!

0:33:27 > 0:33:31- Well, I'd have spent more than that. - How much would you spend, Janey?

0:33:31 > 0:33:37- £10.- Double that, that's what I spent.- 20.- And I would imagine he would estimate it at £30-£50.

0:33:37 > 0:33:42If two online bidders think it's got age, it could make £200 easily.

0:33:42 > 0:33:47OK, girls. Why don't we find out whether the auctioneer thinks it's fab too?

0:33:48 > 0:33:52Right, Charles, there's something to put your profits in after the auction.

0:33:52 > 0:33:59Well, Tim, sometimes, without a swagger, I look at these concerned because they're so difficult to date.

0:33:59 > 0:34:03This one has all the right degrees of wear in the appropriate places.

0:34:03 > 0:34:08- It's musty, it's got that patination, but still I'm on the fence.- Me too.

0:34:08 > 0:34:12- Is it worth £20-£30? - We've put a guide price on of between £30 and £40,

0:34:12 > 0:34:17- and to military enthusiasts... - Not much money, is it? - No, it's nothing, Tim.

0:34:17 > 0:34:20- OK, fine, so we're predicting a small profit on that?- Indeed.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22If the team decide to take it.

0:34:22 > 0:34:26Now, the big question is today, Charles, how enthusiastic are you feeling in this very hot weather?

0:34:26 > 0:34:30Do you know, Tim, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going for Hanson!

0:34:30 > 0:34:34- And I can't wait, Tim, to create drama.- Mmm.

0:34:34 > 0:34:36You'll certainly do that, Charles. Very good luck.

0:34:39 > 0:34:43And I shall say going at 90 and gone at £90.

0:34:44 > 0:34:46- Now, J and P...- Right. - This is exciting.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49- Looking forward to winning.- Let me just run through your lots.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52You've got a pair of cufflinks, you paid £15 for them,

0:34:52 > 0:34:55- little Scottie dogs on, he's estimated 30 to 40.- That's good.

0:34:55 > 0:35:01Which is fair enough, isn't it? The fishy brooch, he likes that, £25-£35,

0:35:01 > 0:35:04- and if worst comes to the worst, you've got that lovely claret jug. - We have.

0:35:04 > 0:35:07OK, first up are the cufflinks and here they come.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10108, a pair of novelty cufflinks. 108...

0:35:10 > 0:35:13I'm only bid here £18.

0:35:13 > 0:35:15Thank you, sir. 18. 20.

0:35:15 > 0:35:1722. 25.

0:35:19 > 0:35:2132. 35?

0:35:21 > 0:35:23- Look at that.- One more, sir.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25They're a pair as well!

0:35:25 > 0:35:27Are you sure? Go on! 35!

0:35:27 > 0:35:30I've got you. 38? 38. 40?

0:35:44 > 0:35:45Yes!

0:35:45 > 0:35:50That's a world-record price, that! Plus £40. £40 profit.

0:35:50 > 0:35:52I'm amazed.

0:35:52 > 0:35:54- Now, here come the ice tongs.- Mmm...

0:35:54 > 0:35:57These are really interesting, a rare and unusual pair

0:35:57 > 0:35:59of Art Deco nickel plate ice tongs on the screen there.

0:35:59 > 0:36:05And I'm bid here only £35. 40 I'll take now. £35. 40 I'll take.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13That's a shame.

0:36:13 > 0:36:17- He's struggling, I tell you. He's trying really hard.- He is.

0:36:17 > 0:36:21At £40. Selling at £40 only. All out.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24- Uh-oh!- Oh, well.- That is minus £19. - Never mind.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27That still makes you plus 21.

0:36:27 > 0:36:30Good man. Now here comes your fish.

0:36:30 > 0:36:35Here is a wonderfully decorative marcasite green enamel brooch

0:36:35 > 0:36:39in the form of a fish on the screen. 110. I'm only bid £18.

0:36:39 > 0:36:4220. 22. 25. 28.

0:36:42 > 0:36:4530, I'm out. £30 I'm bid. Do I see 32 now?

0:36:45 > 0:36:4730 I'm bid. One more do I see?

0:36:47 > 0:36:50Going, all out and gone at 30.

0:36:50 > 0:36:55£30 is plus £3. You are plus 24. Now, that's fair enough, isn't it?

0:36:55 > 0:36:56Yeah.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59Very often there's no plus at all!

0:36:59 > 0:37:01What are you going to do about the claret jug?

0:37:01 > 0:37:03Are you going to go with it? You love it.

0:37:03 > 0:37:07- I do, I do.- You fancy it? - I want it myself!- What shall we do?

0:37:07 > 0:37:09- I think we go for it. - OK, we'll go for it.

0:37:09 > 0:37:13- You all right with that, Jill? - Yes, I think so.- OK, Pete?- Yep. - We're going with the bonus buy.

0:37:13 > 0:37:17Number 114. And I'm only bid here £28.

0:37:33 > 0:37:37- 55?- Keep going. - On the net 50, I'll take 55 now.

0:37:37 > 0:37:3855.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41Online, bid me 60 now. 60. 65?

0:38:02 > 0:38:03You are plus 49.

0:38:03 > 0:38:06- Oh!- OK. Plus 49.

0:38:06 > 0:38:11Out of the ruins springs great profit.

0:38:11 > 0:38:15That's very good, isn't it? £50 plus. Well done. Congratulations.

0:38:22 > 0:38:26- Now, do you know how those naughty Reds got on?- No idea.- No.- No idea?

0:38:26 > 0:38:31That's the way we like to keep it. First up, then, is the Bretby vase and here she comes. Ooh la la!

0:38:31 > 0:38:35Now my number is 130, it's a wonderful Art Nouveau Bretby.

0:38:35 > 0:38:36Look at this vase.

0:38:36 > 0:38:40This, I predict, will be the serious antique of the future.

0:38:40 > 0:38:42And I'm only bid £18.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45- Oh!- Come on!

0:39:05 > 0:39:0955. Online, bid 60?

0:39:09 > 0:39:1265? No, the wife says no, but thank you.

0:39:12 > 0:39:1560 I am bid. Do I see 65 now?

0:39:15 > 0:39:19We sell on the internet, we're live at £60.

0:39:19 > 0:39:20Yes!

0:39:20 > 0:39:22- Excellent!- Yeah.

0:39:22 > 0:39:26- See what I mean? £20 well spent. - Yeah. Translated into £40 profit.

0:39:26 > 0:39:31- You are clever, you girls. Now, can we do it with Orrefors? - All right!

0:39:31 > 0:39:33You might want a wonderful Orrefors glass fruit bowl.

0:39:33 > 0:39:36It's shallow, it's spreading and there it is.

0:39:36 > 0:39:42It's typically 1960s. 131. I'm only bid 25, 28, £30.

0:39:42 > 0:39:46I'll take 35 now. I'll take 35. It's Orrefors.

0:39:46 > 0:39:4835. 38. 40, madam. I'm out.

0:39:48 > 0:39:52At £40, I'm asking 45 now. It's a wonderful Orrefors.

0:39:52 > 0:39:53- Go on!- Go on!

0:39:53 > 0:39:58Give me a fiver or we sell at £40 to a lady who is in the centre...

0:39:58 > 0:40:00- That's brilliant.- Plus £16.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04There's nothing the matter with it. It's well-bought. That's the point.

0:40:04 > 0:40:06Now, your long life pencil.

0:40:06 > 0:40:09..Live long, you might want a Life Long pencil.

0:40:09 > 0:40:15132, I'm only bid £22. I'll take 25 now. It's solid silver.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17At 22. 25. 28.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19- Yes!- We're in profit!

0:40:19 > 0:40:2230 I'm out. Give me 35 now. 35. 40?

0:40:22 > 0:40:24- Are you sure, sir?- Come on!- Go on!

0:40:24 > 0:40:27- 40! Yeah!- Yes!

0:40:27 > 0:40:28£40, I'll take 45 now.

0:40:28 > 0:40:32At £40, and we say fair warning, all out, we really are.

0:40:32 > 0:40:36- Yes! Well done, Charles. That's plus £15.- Well done, you.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38No, well done, you!

0:40:38 > 0:40:40So 15 and 16 is 31 plus 40 is 71.

0:40:40 > 0:40:43- Plus 71. You had a profit on each item.- Yes.

0:40:43 > 0:40:47You spent £69 and you take away a profit of £71.

0:40:47 > 0:40:49That is so well done!

0:40:49 > 0:40:52Now, what are you going to do about the iron money bank?

0:40:52 > 0:40:55- I think we're going to sell.- I think we're going to go for it, aren't we?

0:40:55 > 0:40:58- Are you going to?- If we lose the 71, you're in trouble.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00Well, it's a bit impossible!

0:41:00 > 0:41:02It would be difficult, wouldn't it?

0:41:02 > 0:41:04There you go, you're going with the bonus buy.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08- And here it comes.- Number 136 is a very nice American money box...

0:41:08 > 0:41:12And I'm only bid here... Well, I'm bid...nothing.

0:41:13 > 0:41:17It's a super novelty. 10 I'm out. £10, it's worth all of this.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20At 10. 12. 15.

0:41:20 > 0:41:24- 18. 20. One more, sir?- Go on! - One more!

0:41:24 > 0:41:27- 25. 30?- Yes!- Are you sure, sir?

0:41:27 > 0:41:29I'll take 28.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31Between friends. 28.

0:41:31 > 0:41:35I'm looking for 30 now. At £28, fair warning, going, going, going...

0:41:35 > 0:41:38I love it! £28!

0:41:38 > 0:41:41Listen, that's plus £8.

0:41:41 > 0:41:47So that means you're plus £79. How about that? Plus 79.

0:41:47 > 0:41:49- And Golden Gavels!- Yes!

0:41:49 > 0:41:50Maybe.

0:42:00 > 0:42:04- OK, teams, this is fun, isn't it? Haven't we had a jolly day?- Yes!

0:42:04 > 0:42:05Absolutely stupendo!

0:42:05 > 0:42:09Well, sadly on Bargain Hunt, we can only have one team of winners,

0:42:09 > 0:42:12- but we've got two teams who are taking away cash today!- Ooh!

0:42:12 > 0:42:16But the runners-up by a smallish margin today

0:42:16 > 0:42:18just happen to be the Reds.

0:42:20 > 0:42:22- Which is a shame, isn't it, really? - It is.

0:42:22 > 0:42:26But who would have thought those very, very cheaply made terrier cufflinks

0:42:26 > 0:42:30- would make a profit of £40?- Yeah. - I was knocked out by that.

0:42:30 > 0:42:33Anyway, overall, you're plus 49. There's your 49.

0:42:33 > 0:42:36- Did you enjoy it?- We did and we're donating this to a cancer charity.

0:42:36 > 0:42:39Are you? Oh, that's very generous and that's nice.

0:42:39 > 0:42:42- Anyway, congratulations. Thank you for coming.- Thank you very much.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44The victors take home £79!

0:42:44 > 0:42:48- Yeah!- Which is very, very able, I would say.

0:42:48 > 0:42:50Well done, Nics. There's your £79.

0:42:50 > 0:42:53Consistently solid profits,

0:42:53 > 0:42:57that justifies your entry to the Golden Gavel Club!

0:42:57 > 0:42:58Look at that!

0:42:58 > 0:43:02- One each. Nic, rip it off. That's it.- Go on.- Well done.

0:43:02 > 0:43:05- Thank you, sir.- This is fantastic. - There you go.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07- I hope you've enjoyed your day. - Yeah, very much.

0:43:07 > 0:43:08Well, we've loved having you.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11In fact, join us soon for some more Bargain Hunting, yes?

0:43:11 > 0:43:12Yes!

0:43:12 > 0:43:15I know, you're sitting there thinking,

0:43:15 > 0:43:17"I could have done better than that!"

0:43:17 > 0:43:19Well, what's stopping you?

0:43:19 > 0:43:21If you think you can spot a bargain,

0:43:21 > 0:43:24go to our BBC website and apply.

0:43:24 > 0:43:26It'll be splendid to see you.
