0:00:02 > 0:00:07Question - why have we come to Lincoln today?
0:00:09 > 0:00:15Answer - I'll tell you why because this place is home to one of the country's largest antique fairs.
0:00:15 > 0:00:22We've got two teams standing by primed with their cash, so let's go bargain hunting, yeah!
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Some of the dealers here
0:00:48 > 0:00:52at the Lincolnshire Antiques and Home Show
0:00:52 > 0:00:54have travelled from far afield,
0:00:54 > 0:00:57including France and Belgium and Holland.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01And to those visitors I say "bonjour"
0:01:01 > 0:01:05and to our teams I say "bonne chance"!
0:01:06 > 0:01:10On today's show, the Reds have a difference of opinion.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15- Do you like Art Deco?- I can't say that I do, but that means it's probably worth something.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Especially the dog as well.- Sorry.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22- I thought that was a lion.- Is it a lion? I thought it was a bulldog.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24LAUGHTER
0:01:25 > 0:01:29And with the RAF overhead, our Blues are dressed for battle.
0:01:29 > 0:01:35Epaulettes. Every cage fighter should have a pair, don't you think, Dad?
0:01:36 > 0:01:38First up, let's meet our teams.
0:01:41 > 0:01:46So, for the Reds, we have a father and daughter team, John and Sarah.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51- And for the Blues, we have Pete and Danny. Hello, everyone.- Hello. - Very nice to see you.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54- So you've brought your father along. - Mm-hm. Yeah.
0:01:54 > 0:02:00- Have you always got along very well? - I'm an only child and I grew up in the middle of nowhere,
0:02:00 > 0:02:03so I had no choice, really, but to get along with him.
0:02:03 > 0:02:09- But it's nice when you're friendly with your dad, don't you find? - It is nice, yeah.- Good.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Your father pretends that you work in a sweet shop. Why's that?
0:02:13 > 0:02:18- Because I've got a serious job and he doesn't like to think about what I do.- What do you do?
0:02:18 > 0:02:22I'm a forensic psychologist in training, so I work with people
0:02:22 > 0:02:25who have committed crimes and have gone to prison,
0:02:25 > 0:02:29but can't be in prison because they're too mentally unwell,
0:02:29 > 0:02:33so they come to a hospital where we give them treatment.
0:02:33 > 0:02:39- It's quite a serious job.- Yeah.- I'm not surprised that your father likes to think you're in a sweet shop.
0:02:39 > 0:02:45- English and Media Studies is your subject. Where do you teach that?- A comprehensive school in Derbyshire.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- Very nice and rural. - Have you got any tactics today?
0:02:48 > 0:02:51- We're in the hands of our expert. - We know absolutely nothing.
0:02:51 > 0:02:56You'll do very well on Bargain Hunt then. I would say ideally qualified!
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Watch them make more money than anybody else, having admitted that.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- We hope so.- And have fun. That's the most important thing.
0:03:03 > 0:03:07- Thank you for joining us. Now, Danny...- Hello.
0:03:07 > 0:03:12- I should be rather frightened of you.- I don't know about that. - Well, I don't know.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Tell us about what you get up to.
0:03:14 > 0:03:20- I'm a professional Mixed Martial Arts fighter which most punters call a cage fighter.- Cage fighter?- Yeah.
0:03:20 > 0:03:26- That sounds menacing. Hand-to-hand combat, is it?- That's right. You can punch, kick, knee, elbow.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30- You're very modest because you've been British champion?- Yeah.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- Two times British, one time European champion.- Congratulations.- Cheers.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38- Pete, have you got a few nicknames? - Yeah.- Give us a selection.
0:03:38 > 0:03:43- I used to go to an auction and they nicknamed me Lovejoy.- Did they?
0:03:43 > 0:03:47For buying and selling stuff from one auction to another.
0:03:47 > 0:03:52- Is that your job? Are you a dealer? - I've always bought and sold stuff. - Have you?- Yeah, yeah.
0:03:52 > 0:03:58- So you'll be good at this bargain hunting lark?- I hope so. - We'd better watch out today, chaps.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02Brilliant. What sort of things would you be looking out for today?
0:04:02 > 0:04:06I like maybe silver stuff, like little silver collectables.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09I fancy a nice bracket clock if we can find one.
0:04:09 > 0:04:14You've got a mission then which is lovely. To start you on your mission, here's £300 apiece.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18- £300.- Thank you. - OK, teams. You know the rules.
0:04:18 > 0:04:23Your experts await and off you go and very, very, very good luck!
0:04:23 > 0:04:26How interesting is that? One team that claims to know nothing
0:04:26 > 0:04:32versus a team that clearly knows everything about everything. What will happen next?
0:04:35 > 0:04:40Assisting the Reds today is the diminutive dynamo, Anita Manning.
0:04:41 > 0:04:45And helping the Blues to clean up, it's Charlie Ross.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54Well, guys, here we are, 300 smackeroonies.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58- I don't feel intimidated in the slightest between you two.- No?
0:04:58 > 0:05:02Not the fact you're bigger, stronger, fitter...
0:05:02 > 0:05:08Do you want to spend a lot of money, do you want to spend a small amount of money or does it matter?
0:05:08 > 0:05:13- Usually, you don't like spending any money.- No. It's not my own money, so we could spend the lot.
0:05:13 > 0:05:18- Have you ever done cage-fighting? - I've done a bit of judo when I was younger.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21We won't have any trouble from the stallholders.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25I feel quite safe all of a sudden. Let's go and buy some things.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Let's see what fate throws into our hands.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Let's go.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40First to the punch are the Blues.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45Look at those epaulettes. Aren't they wonderful?
0:05:45 > 0:05:50Epaulettes, there we go. Naval epaulettes for your shoulder. Come on.
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- Look at the gold braid on that!- Yes. - There we go.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Fantastic.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Every cage fighter should have a pair, don't you think, Dad?
0:06:02 > 0:06:07Epaulettes, meaning "little shoulders" in French, have been used to indicate rank
0:06:07 > 0:06:10by armed forces since the 18th century.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Today, they're mostly seen on ceremonial uniforms.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17- What would they have cost to make? - They look expensive.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22- Even the buttons look wonderful. How much are your epaulettes, sir?- £280.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- £280. There we go.- Yeah.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- You wouldn't want to make them for that.- No.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31The Blues were given their marching orders.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40Now, will the Reds spend some cash on the coin-operated jukebox?
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- You're a guy that likes music.- Yes.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Even so, some of the singles on there are probably my dad's era,
0:06:48 > 0:06:52- rather than the ones I would have played. - What are they?- Duke Ellington.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Ray Charles?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- These are evergreen people.- Hmm.
0:06:57 > 0:07:02- Is this something you would be interested in?- It's unusual, quirky. - What do you think, darling?
0:07:02 > 0:07:05Is it made of plastic? No.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08I like your style.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11So, a sort of music-themed item.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14It's probably, I don't know, it could be '50s or '60s.
0:07:14 > 0:07:19- I wonder if it works? So, keep that in mind.- Keep that in mind.- Yeah.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25The Red Arrows aren't performing just for us.
0:07:25 > 0:07:30Their home, RAF Scampton, is just across the road from the fair.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Not everyone appreciates their arrival though.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- ENGINES ROAR - Coming over, Mr Sound Man!
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Mr Sound Man, can you hear me?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41You poor chap!
0:07:44 > 0:07:46ENGINES ROAR
0:07:46 > 0:07:50Can you imagine anything worse for a sound man
0:07:50 > 0:07:54than filming hour after hour underneath the Red Arrows?
0:07:54 > 0:07:58Every time they go past, it gives him an apoplectic fit.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Look at them. "How much is this table?"
0:08:01 > 0:08:03MIMICS ENGINES ROARING
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Poor old chap. Good experience though.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11# Highway to the danger zone... #
0:08:11 > 0:08:17Back on terra firma, will the Reds hit the right notes with this musical oddity?
0:08:17 > 0:08:23- It looks like a musical instrument, but I've never seen one like that before.- Is that a zither?
0:08:23 > 0:08:30- A zither?- Uh-huh.- Carol Reed directed The Third Man and it starts with a zither.- That's right.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- Yes.- That's right.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36- That's a beautiful piece. - I really like that.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39It's all hand-painted in the borders
0:08:39 > 0:08:44and you've got this nice, little illustration of an exotic bird.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48- It might be a lot of money. - It'll probably be very expensive.
0:08:48 > 0:08:53- I think you pluck it.- Yeah. - It's a plucking instrument.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56It's probably late 19th, early 20th century.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Can you play it?
0:08:58 > 0:09:02In my dreams. LAUGHTER
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Is it very, very, very expensive?
0:09:05 > 0:09:09The best I can do is 180. It's not that expensive, huh?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- 180.- It's an old one.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I know. It's rare that you see them in such good condition.
0:09:15 > 0:09:20But I don't think that we should just forget about it altogether.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24- No, it's one to think about. - I think we should think about it.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27The thing is, if you like it, someone else will like it.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31THEME MUSIC: "The Third Man"
0:09:36 > 0:09:40Over with the Blues, Pete seems to be enjoying the pressure.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45What kind of price have you got on this, love...? 55.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47It's an oak frame. How old is it?
0:09:48 > 0:09:50You stay there.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55- 1930s?- Yeah, very good. I think it's probably a little bit earlier.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57What nationality is it?
0:09:57 > 0:10:01- I would say it's French. - It's French. Spot-on. There we are.
0:10:01 > 0:10:06Do you know what I really like about that? The dolphin decoration.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Now, an aneroid barometer...
0:10:08 > 0:10:14The earlier barometers had mercury in them. They're quite dangerous and quite temperamental as well.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18This is an aneroid. It's a bi-metallic strip.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22The fact that it is French, I think, is quite appealing.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27- Do you think it would put people off at auction?- No.- You don't? - No, I think it's a nice piece.
0:10:27 > 0:10:33You know "fair" is on the right - "beau temps", which is the French for "good weather".
0:10:33 > 0:10:38- "Pluie", that's rain. How much was it?- 55, she said, but I can maybe negotiate.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Do you know, I like that as well.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46- It's a little bit yesterday's antiques, but...- I think that's a good buy.- Have a word with her.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- Right.- We'll wait here.
0:10:49 > 0:10:53- ENGINES ROAR - They're going over again.
0:10:53 > 0:10:58- There's a lot of Red Arrows around here.- Yeah. - They're keeping an eye on Dad.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02- She wanted 50, I said 45 and we've bought it.- He's bought it.
0:11:02 > 0:11:07- Yeah.- I like your style.- I think there's a bit of profit in it. - I do. I think so.
0:11:07 > 0:11:13- If that had been a standard English one from the same period... - No damage.- No. 45 quid.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17- Good man. He's good, isn't he? - Yeah, the pressure's on me now.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21- It certainly is. Come on, chaps.- Let's go.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- Hang on. There they go again. - The Red Arrows are back.
0:11:32 > 0:11:37With the Blues having taken the first round, are the Reds about to sew up their first buy?
0:11:37 > 0:11:44- That's quite a nice thing. Is it oriental?- Yes, but there's no stamps on it.- No stamps.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47- Yeah.- But it could be 65.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51It could be 65. I mean, that's quite nice.
0:11:51 > 0:11:56There's a give in that which indicates that it is silver. It's for keeping needles in.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58A needle case, that sort of thing.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Could that be bought for, um...
0:12:01 > 0:12:0340?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05LAUGHTER >
0:12:05 > 0:12:08- The very best on it, 55. That would be the best.- 55.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Or 50. Round it up to 50.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- Round it to 50? - It'll stand a chance.
0:12:14 > 0:12:19- Oh, you've brought a smile to this girl's face.- That's because we're spending money.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23- Right.- Yeah.- Thank you. - Lovely. Thank you very much.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- Thank you very much.- Thank you. - Cheers.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Well done. You've bought your first item.- Yeah!
0:12:28 > 0:12:32Yeah, indeed. 20 minutes gone. That's one item apiece.
0:12:39 > 0:12:44Back with the Blues and Charlie Ross attempts to strong-arm his team into submission.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47I'm just looking at this rather exceptional clock.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49It's a rare hinged variety.
0:12:49 > 0:12:54- It's a ship's clock. It moves about. - It's a ship's clock, yeah. It's on a gimbal.
0:12:54 > 0:13:00- Guys, I am going to exert my prerogative here.- Right, yeah.
0:13:00 > 0:13:04At 35 quid, this should be bought.
0:13:04 > 0:13:10It's a four-glass, late 19th, early 20th century library clock.
0:13:10 > 0:13:16- It has an enamel dial. It's got a bit of a crack, but it is a really good case.- Yeah.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19You've got to get, ideally, a mercury pendulum for this,
0:13:19 > 0:13:21which will be expensive.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25You've got to put new glass in it which won't be cheap,
0:13:25 > 0:13:27but it is a good quality case
0:13:27 > 0:13:33and at £35, if that doesn't make a profit at auction,
0:13:33 > 0:13:37then frankly, I'm even worse than I thought I was in the first place.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42- Give yourself some credit, old fruit.- Have you got enough confidence in me?- Yeah.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45- You're the expert. - I think that's a great buy.
0:13:45 > 0:13:50- I know it's knackered, but your dad can see the potential in that.- Yeah.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52OK. We'll trust you with that one.
0:13:52 > 0:13:58I'm very happy with that, sir. Thank you. That's really kind. You hit the spot with the price.
0:13:58 > 0:14:03£35 for a damaged clock. Your reputation is really on the line with this one, Charlie.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10But with time ticking,
0:14:10 > 0:14:12where are those Reds?
0:14:12 > 0:14:16- So...- What would that be, a smoker's tray?
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- It's definitely 1920s, 1930s.- '20s.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21- How much is that?- 85.
0:14:21 > 0:14:25It's got bags of style, hasn't it? Do you like Art Deco?
0:14:25 > 0:14:29I can't say that I do, but that means it's probably worth something.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32- Aw!- Especially the dog as well.- Sorry.
0:14:32 > 0:14:37- I thought that was a lion.- Oh, is it a lion? I thought it was a bulldog. LAUGHTER
0:14:37 > 0:14:40Come on, come on!
0:14:40 > 0:14:43I'm rubbish at this.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45No, you're fine, you're fine.
0:14:45 > 0:14:50Don't worry, Sarah. This isn't Animal Hunt, you know.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56It's in a nice mahogany case. It's got some age.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01It would, I think, date from about 1910, 1920.
0:15:01 > 0:15:04It could be a little bit later, but it's pre-war.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06We used to use these at school.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09You put slides under there with tissue specimens.
0:15:09 > 0:15:13And you've got the concave mirror at the bottom
0:15:13 > 0:15:18which reflects the light up, so that you get a good image.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21I think you've got extra lenses in here.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25They seem to unscrew... Oh, that's amazing.
0:15:25 > 0:15:30- They're actually screwed into the case.- So you can't lose them. - How quality is that?
0:15:30 > 0:15:36- Yeah, that's nice.- Try the little drawers.- Yeah.- There might be some gold sovereigns in there.
0:15:36 > 0:15:42He said there might be some sovereigns in the drawer. He's never been to a fair before!
0:15:43 > 0:15:46- Oh, the slides are ready! - It's complete.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- Crikey!- Is that all complete then?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53It looks as complete as I can possibly find it.
0:15:53 > 0:15:58- How much is this, sir? - The very best price is £150.- £150.
0:15:58 > 0:16:04- Do you want to just think about it? - Any better price? Any better price? - No, the best on that is £150.- £150.
0:16:04 > 0:16:10- You know exactly where you stand. - We can come back to it. - We'll have a think about that.- Yeah.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12- Let's go.- Thank you very much, sir.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Time is moving on apace, but where are the Reds?
0:16:16 > 0:16:21- Let me just show this little thing...- That's quite nice. - It looks attractive.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25It's probably, I would say, 1940s, 1950s.
0:16:25 > 0:16:29It's got this faux tortoiseshell. It's not tortoiseshell.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33And it's, um... It's slightly faded here.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37- Mm-hm.- You've got a silver-plated body.
0:16:37 > 0:16:43- Mm-hm.- And when we look inside, we have various manicure items.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46These are silver-plated, rather than silver.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48It's a little manicure set.
0:16:48 > 0:16:52But it's quite a pretty thing. It's quite an intriguing wee thing.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56- No?- Not for you?- Not for now.- Not keen, yeah.- Not for you, darling.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58OK...
0:16:58 > 0:17:04With just over 20 minutes remaining, Reds, you may need to do more buying and less browsing.
0:17:07 > 0:17:11It seems the Blues are out to prove they're no Dumbos.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15- Seen anything you like? What about this?- It's damaged.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19- It's great.- Is that an inkwell? - Is it Indian silver?- It's plated.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23- Plated, is it?- Yeah, I checked underneath.- Did you?- Yeah.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25EPBM. Yeah, Britannia metal.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29That's fantastic quality. Look at that!
0:17:29 > 0:17:34The trouble is... I don't think that's terminal. Somebody could straighten that out.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38- It's been bashed.- It's been dropped. - Dropped, I should think.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40How much is it, sir?
0:17:40 > 0:17:46I was asking £150 for it, but I can do a deal on it. I can do it for 125.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49I think it's a really good thing. It is expensive.
0:17:49 > 0:17:53But where will you find another one? It's a superb thing.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Famous last words, eh, Charlie?
0:17:56 > 0:18:00Now, have the Reds come to any conclusions over their second item?
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Back again. She's persuaded us.
0:18:03 > 0:18:09- This isn't as hideous as we thought it was!- I think it's good. I think it's got a lot of style.
0:18:09 > 0:18:13- Price would persuade us. - Price would persuade them.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15If we could get that for about 50...
0:18:15 > 0:18:20< For you to make the profit, I'm going to go against my own rules. You can have it for 50.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23< And if you don't make a profit, bring it back.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25- Deal!- Can't do better than that.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- You've been wonderful. - Thank you very much.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- You're welcome. - Thank you.
0:18:37 > 0:18:40The Blues are having a deja vu moment.
0:18:40 > 0:18:45- Take a look at this. We've seen that before somewhere.- Have you just moved it?- I don't think so.
0:18:45 > 0:18:50- He's playing the violin.- I have never seen one in my life and now I've seen two. How much is it?
0:18:50 > 0:18:52It's 180 on it. 130.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Oh, oh!
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- I've not seen Charlie this excited in a long time.- Did you hear that?
0:18:58 > 0:19:02That's a nice thing. So is the other one.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04- Five minutes.- Five minutes?
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Oh, hang on. That's...
0:19:08 > 0:19:13- Yeah, I like that.- It's a bit pricey, but he's very flexible, this man.
0:19:13 > 0:19:18Hallmarked, silver-topped scent bottle, cranberry glass
0:19:18 > 0:19:22with its original stopper which fits perfectly.
0:19:22 > 0:19:28That's the key with these things. Sometimes the replacement stopper wobbles about. That's beautiful.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32- The decoration is fabulous. - Three minutes.- Three minutes.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35He's giggling. He's got a sense of humour if nothing else!
0:19:35 > 0:19:39- Can that be £50?- No, sir. - It can't be £50.
0:19:39 > 0:19:4270? Just that fiver?
0:19:42 > 0:19:45I can give you the fiver.
0:19:45 > 0:19:49£70, sir. That's wonderful. Thank you. We really appreciate that.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52That's the Blues all done and dusted then.
0:19:55 > 0:20:00The Reds have returned to the zither for a repeat performance, but don't dither. Only a minute left.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04- I think you should make a deal on that.- I think so too.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07Honestly, 150 is the price I paid for that.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09- OK.- Lovely. Thank you very much.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13Thank you. You've been so kind and patient.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Thank you.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17That's lovely. Are you happy now?
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Yeah, I like this. It's pretty. It's interesting, it's unusual.
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- It's what you wanted from the beginning.- The first thing you saw.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- Don't forget the box. - Yeah. Thank you.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31And the plinth.
0:20:31 > 0:20:36That's our three items bought with minutes, seconds to spare.
0:20:36 > 0:20:40- It's all about timing.- It's all about timing. Well done, guys.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- Let's go and have a nice cup of tea. - Excellent.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Well, shopping's over. Boom or bust time!
0:20:56 > 0:20:58So, just to recap,
0:20:58 > 0:21:01the Reds bought the white metal needle case for £50,
0:21:01 > 0:21:06then they picked up the Art Deco cocktail tray also for £50.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Finally, they plucked up courage for the zither
0:21:09 > 0:21:12to the tune of £150.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- Now, you spent how much?- £250.- 250.
0:21:15 > 0:21:21- I'd like £50 of leftover lolly. - There you go.- Anita, here's your £50, a reasonable sum.
0:21:21 > 0:21:28Not bad at all. I should have no problem buying a nice, pretty, girly thing. I hope you don't mind.
0:21:28 > 0:21:34- It's a good fair.- Wonderful. - Good luck, Anita. Meanwhile, let's check out what the Blue Team bought.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38First up, they bought the aneroid barometer for £45.
0:21:40 > 0:21:45Next they got the mantel clock for £35 - what's left of it.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49And finally, they picked up the scent bottle for £70.
0:21:50 > 0:21:56- Good, fun shopping, was it, Danny? - Yeah.- Lovely. Nice to have your dad with you to keep you under control.
0:21:56 > 0:22:02- You spent 150, yes?- That's right. - I'd like £150 of leftover lolly, please. Very good.- There you go.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04150 goes straight across to Carlos.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08- Marvellous.- I bet you didn't pick an argument with these two.
0:22:08 > 0:22:14- I agreed with everything they bought.- I bet you were very obedient for a change.- I was.
0:22:14 > 0:22:20- What are you going to spend the 150 on? Do you know?- I don't and I'll do well to beat what they bought.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22They've both got really good eyes.
0:22:22 > 0:22:26OK, fine. I'll leave you to carry on then, Charlie.
0:22:26 > 0:22:32Meanwhile, we're going to have a little look at something I prepared and found earlier.
0:22:35 > 0:22:40If you were knocking about in the 19th century and doing a lot of travelling,
0:22:40 > 0:22:44it would be essential to have one of these fellas.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Why? Because they're especially made for travelling.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51That's why they're called carriage clocks.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53The most basic job is this one.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55It's in an Obis case.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59The movement is very simple because it only tells the time.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02It's priced up on the stall here at £100,
0:23:02 > 0:23:05a basic price for a basic carriage timepiece.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08This one is a wee bit more complicated.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12It chimes the hours and it has the additional feature
0:23:12 > 0:23:14of this little dial at the bottom.
0:23:14 > 0:23:18That is called an alarum dial.
0:23:18 > 0:23:23You'd set this carriage clock to wake you up in the morning which is rather fun
0:23:23 > 0:23:25and that's an additional feature,
0:23:25 > 0:23:29all of which add up to why the asking price for this one
0:23:29 > 0:23:31is £500.
0:23:31 > 0:23:36But by far the best of the carriage clocks on this table is this fellow
0:23:36 > 0:23:40because it's encrusted in porcelain panels,
0:23:40 > 0:23:46porcelain panels that were made in France, probably by Sevres,
0:23:46 > 0:23:48in the 1880s.
0:23:48 > 0:23:53If you're looking for a porcelain-encrusted carriage clock, do beware
0:23:53 > 0:23:58because these porcelain panels are very liable to crack or chip.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02The slightest pressure on the sides, a bit of a bash, a bit of a ding
0:24:02 > 0:24:04and hey presto, you've got damage.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08The extraordinary thing about this one, which I found in the fair,
0:24:08 > 0:24:13is that although the case is in shocking, shabby, dirty condition,
0:24:13 > 0:24:17and even though the movement is filthy and requires restoration,
0:24:17 > 0:24:21none of the porcelain panels have suffered any damage at all.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24If you look at that side one,
0:24:24 > 0:24:27the containing colour is called "bleu celeste"
0:24:27 > 0:24:31which is a typical Sevres, 18th century colour.
0:24:31 > 0:24:35No damage - as fresh and as good as the day it was made.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Brilliant.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39What's it worth?
0:24:39 > 0:24:44Well, I found this fellow for £425 on a stall round the corner.
0:24:44 > 0:24:50It needs some restoration. The case needs cleaning and re-gilding and the movement needs putting in order,
0:24:50 > 0:24:54so there's maybe £250 to spend on this carriage clock,
0:24:54 > 0:24:57but at the end of the day, in good nick,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00it could be worth as much as 1,500.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03So, you see, there are bargains about.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Ding-dong!
0:25:06 > 0:25:0925. 30 bid. 35 now... Any more now?
0:25:09 > 0:25:15At £30 bid. 2 now? £30 in the middle of the room. I'm selling at 30...
0:25:15 > 0:25:21- I can't tell you how splendid it is to come across the county border. Have we?- You haven't, Tim.
0:25:21 > 0:25:27We're still in Lincolnshire, but we're in Grantham at Golding Young & Mawer's Saleroom
0:25:27 > 0:25:32- to be with our old mucker Colin Young.- Good to have you back. - Nice to be here.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35The Reds have got a mixture that defies belief.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39First off is the needle case which I think is rather sweet, don't you?
0:25:39 > 0:25:43I think it's OK. It's nicely chased, but brand-new.
0:25:43 > 0:25:47- Is it?- Hmm.- OK, well, that's a bit of a body blow.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51- Right.- So how much, do you think? - £10 to £30 estimate on it.- Oh, lordy!
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- £50 they paid.- OK.
0:25:54 > 0:25:59Moving on very swiftly to the rather attractive Deco cocktail set...
0:25:59 > 0:26:04- Well, it's a tray and two ashtrays, actually.- It's got something about it. It's a nice Deco look.
0:26:04 > 0:26:08The only thing that seems a little bit OTT is...
0:26:08 > 0:26:11- That fella.- Yeah. - It's such a butch lion, isn't it?
0:26:11 > 0:26:15- The most clumping paws you ever did see.- Yeah.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18- Incredibly crudely made.- Yeah.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21The valuation will be a bit of guesswork, as it usually is.
0:26:21 > 0:26:26- 30 to 50 estimate.- The team paid £50, so they're a bit light on that.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30The last item, though, which is their number one investment...
0:26:30 > 0:26:34- Sarah went bonkers for this.- Right. - ..is the zithery thing.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36- Hmm.- Do you like these zithery things?
0:26:36 > 0:26:41- Not a lot, but how bonkers did they go?- They went really bonkers.- Mm-hm.
0:26:41 > 0:26:45I'd better not tell you. I don't want to ruin your day. What is your estimate?
0:26:45 > 0:26:49Well, the average model of this does £25 to £40.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53- OK.- I would say this is a little bit better than average,
0:26:53 > 0:26:56so I would hope it would clear a 25 to 40 estimate.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Stand by then, Colin, because they spent £150.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Right.
0:27:01 > 0:27:06We've heard it from the master's mouth here. We are in trouble with the zithery thing,
0:27:06 > 0:27:10so we'd better go and have a look at the bonus buy. Here it comes.
0:27:10 > 0:27:16John and Sarah, you spent 250. You gave Anita £50, which I expect she has spent wisely.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18- Let's have a look, Anita.- I hope so.
0:27:20 > 0:27:25- That's nice.- It's just a wee, tiny thing, but it's very, very pretty
0:27:25 > 0:27:30and it's made by a prestigious Norwegian silversmith, Marius Hammer.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34He was working at the end of the 19th, beginning of the 20th century.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37He was a contemporary of Faberge.
0:27:37 > 0:27:42And we have in this little brooch some beautiful blue enamelling,
0:27:42 > 0:27:48the little seed pearl in the middle and it's all set in silver.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51- Have a little play. That's the answer.- It's very pretty.
0:27:51 > 0:27:55- That's lovely. Really nice.- Obvious question - how much did you pay?
0:27:55 > 0:27:59- I paid £25 for it.- OK.
0:27:59 > 0:28:04I would hope that it would perhaps reach £30, maybe a little more than that.
0:28:04 > 0:28:08- Not fussy. That's the point. - No, it's nice and simple.- Yes.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Good. Right, we've got the prediction.
0:28:11 > 0:28:16You hang on to that tantalising thought while we, for the audience at home,
0:28:16 > 0:28:20find out what the auctioneer thinks about Anita's little brooch.
0:28:20 > 0:28:22Cor, look at that, Colin!
0:28:22 > 0:28:25That warrants close inspection, doesn't it?
0:28:25 > 0:28:28It does. Nice piece of enamel.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29Silver base.
0:28:29 > 0:28:34Maker - Marius Hammer, so that would have been produced in Bergen in Norway.
0:28:34 > 0:28:38It's probably 1920s. It certainly wouldn't be pre-1900.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41But I would guess that's just part of something else.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44- OK, sweet little thing then. - Yeah.- How much?
0:28:44 > 0:28:47£25 to £40. I still rate it.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50Clever old Anita because she only paid £25.
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:28:53 > 0:28:57Now for the Blues... We've got the aneroid barometer and thermometer
0:28:57 > 0:29:01which I have to say fills my heart with dread.
0:29:01 > 0:29:05I just think they're yesterday's thingumajigs. Very fussy, isn't it?
0:29:05 > 0:29:08Yeah, very much so. Again it's this classical 1980s thing
0:29:08 > 0:29:13where everybody was wanting big, late Victorian-looking Germanic things,
0:29:13 > 0:29:16whether it was wall clocks or barometers.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19What you might have got £150 for 15 years ago. What do you get today?
0:29:19 > 0:29:24- I think it will be a struggle with a 40 to 60 estimate.- £45 they paid.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27They paid more or less the right price, in fairness.
0:29:27 > 0:29:32- You know how I say to people, "Always buy things in good condition"?- Yeah.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36Never fail to get anything in good condition. How do you rate the next item?
0:29:36 > 0:29:40- It's a wreck. - Nobody listens to you then, Tim.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43I mean, it got run over on the M4, I reckon.
0:29:43 > 0:29:49A bit of ingenious cataloguing is required on that because they used to be called four-glass clocks.
0:29:49 > 0:29:55- I suppose this is more sort of a one-and-a-half-glass clock. - It's mainly smashed.
0:29:55 > 0:30:01But in fairness, it's a decent movement that somebody will be able to put on to something else.
0:30:01 > 0:30:06Well, in fairness, that in dazzling condition, is that £400-worth?
0:30:06 > 0:30:12- Yeah, it is that sort of money.- Done up, 300 to 400, but a lot of doing up to get it back into that state.
0:30:12 > 0:30:17So I think, estimate-wise, 30 to 40, 30 to 50 sort of range.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20- They paid £35, so that's OK. - That's OK.
0:30:20 > 0:30:27- The last item, which I think is really pretty, is the cranberry glass and silver scent bottle.- Yeah.
0:30:27 > 0:30:33- How do those go with you?- They go very well in that there's always lots of competition for them.
0:30:33 > 0:30:38You've got a nice combination on that of the cranberry. The marks are nice and crisp.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42You've still got its stopper. There's a lot of things going for it.
0:30:42 > 0:30:46On this one, I've put an out-and-out tempting estimate on it of 10 to 30,
0:30:46 > 0:30:50but I think there's probably £40 or £50-worth there.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52- They paid 70.- Right, OK.
0:30:52 > 0:30:57They might wipe their face with the first two, but they could have a problem with the scent bottle,
0:30:57 > 0:31:03there could be a smell about, in which case they'll need their bonus buy. Let's have a look at it.
0:31:03 > 0:31:07- Right then, chaps, this is the moment of truth.- It is.
0:31:07 > 0:31:12You gave Rossco £150 of your leftover lolly. What did you spend it on?
0:31:12 > 0:31:14I spent it on this.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18- Ah...- Oh, my God!
0:31:18 > 0:31:20- LAUGHTER - I can see what it is now.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23- It's a cigar...- It's a cigar-cutter.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26WMF from the Wurttemberg factory.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29It's about 1900, 1910.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33Wonderful quality with the hound's head on the end there.
0:31:33 > 0:31:38To a collector, I think quite a special thing. I would prefer it to be silver, but it isn't.
0:31:38 > 0:31:42How many people smoke cigars nowadays, anybody's guess,
0:31:42 > 0:31:48but I think that would be bought by a collector just to have in a collection.
0:31:48 > 0:31:52- A lot of work in that.- I just love the face. People like dogs.
0:31:52 > 0:31:56- Is it going to bring some money in though?- Well, it cost £100.
0:31:56 > 0:32:03- Hmm...- That's an awful lot of breath going through the teeth there. - He's got an intake of breath.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06It depends who's here today, I think, buying, really.
0:32:06 > 0:32:12- Would it be the sort of thing that you'd buy?- No.- No.- Well, maybe, yeah, if it was cheaper.
0:32:12 > 0:32:16What do you call cheaper then? £20 or £30?
0:32:16 > 0:32:20- Well, no more than 60.- No more than 60. That's where you sit with it.
0:32:20 > 0:32:26Now, for the audience at home, let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Carlos's cutter.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28- Over to you then, Colin.- Thank you.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31- That's an unusual thing.- It is.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34A decent cutter. Looks to be in good working order. Nice item.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38- What's your estimate? - We've put a derisory 10 to 30 on it,
0:32:38 > 0:32:42but I would have thought it would be a snip at 40 or 50.
0:32:42 > 0:32:46Have you been thinking about that - "a snip at 40 to 50"?
0:32:46 > 0:32:48I think you have, Colin Young.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Anyway, it's not a snip at 40 or 50.
0:32:51 > 0:32:55£100 was paid by C Ross Esquire
0:32:55 > 0:32:58and he sees a profit in it at that.

0:35:23 > 0:35:2628 now do I see? Is there 28 for the zither?

0:35:48 > 0:35:53- Possibly. I think we might try it. - Tactics, girls and boys. - In Anita we trust.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57It needs to make £178 to get you of trouble, to wipe your face.
0:35:57 > 0:36:01I can't promise that. I can't promise that.

0:36:43 > 0:36:46to minus 133
0:36:46 > 0:36:47which is much more respectable.
0:36:47 > 0:36:52- Who knows? It could be a winning score.- Who indeed? Who knows?
0:36:59 > 0:37:02Well, here we go. Charlie, are you feeling small?
0:37:02 > 0:37:05- I'm feeling enormous. - Are you? I'm not.
0:37:05 > 0:37:10These chaps are big, aren't they? You wouldn't want to tangle with this lot.
0:37:10 > 0:37:15I hope your expertise has been sound today because this could be a problem.
0:37:15 > 0:37:21- See that?- If people in this room don't bid, woe betide. - Quite. Woe betide us, rather.
0:37:21 > 0:37:25Anyway, now, first up then is the aneroid barometer.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27Is the pressure rising or not?
0:37:27 > 0:37:32Lot number 160 is an early 20th century, French aneroid barometer.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35Nice, carved frame to it as well.

0:38:53 > 0:38:58At £60 bid. 2 now do I see? Looks like that's time out then.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00It's going out the door at £60.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02£60 is plus £25.

0:39:53 > 0:39:57You are still plus £23. You've got folding money to go home with.
0:39:57 > 0:40:03- Good.- Now, are we going to go with the cigar-cutter? - No, I think we're happy with that.
0:40:03 > 0:40:08Yeah. I think we could lose a lot of money on that cigar-cutter.
0:40:08 > 0:40:12- I don't want to lose any money now. - I'm not surprised.
0:40:12 > 0:40:17- I don't want to have to hurt Charlie. He's already done all right.- Put him in the cage, like?
0:40:17 > 0:40:20I don't think it would be a fair match.
0:40:20 > 0:40:25- Seriously, you're not going to do it?- No. - You're going to park that old dog.
0:40:25 > 0:40:29The decision's made. You've made £23. You're parking your money.
0:40:29 > 0:40:34- But we'll sell the bonus buy just for the fun of it.- OK. - Stand by, Charlie.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36Who's going to start me at £50 for it?
0:40:36 > 0:40:3850? 30 to go then, surely? £30?

0:41:12 > 0:41:15In the far corner at 65.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19Last call. We're done, finished and going then at £65...
0:41:19 > 0:41:22Bad luck, Charlie. It had the momentum there.
0:41:22 > 0:41:26That is minus £35, but it matters not a jot.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29You preserved your cash, you cunning fellows.
0:41:29 > 0:41:36- £23 of profit you have in your pocket. Just don't say a word to the Reds.- OK.- Lovely. Thanks.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48Well, teams, everybody happy? You jolly well ought to be.
0:41:48 > 0:41:50- Very.- It's been a great day.- Super.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53We don't know yet! LAUGHTER
0:41:53 > 0:41:59There is a chasm between you and I'll put the runners-up out of their misery. The runners-up are the Reds.
0:41:59 > 0:42:03- Aw!- £133-worth of losses,
0:42:03 > 0:42:08including £125 down the proverbial on that zither,
0:42:08 > 0:42:11which was a difficult thing, really,
0:42:11 > 0:42:15so your end score is minus 133 and I'm sorry about that.
0:42:15 > 0:42:21- That's fine.- It is difficult, though, when one thing, particularly, takes you down the old Swanee.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Are you looking at me?
0:42:23 > 0:42:27- We will blame the person that chose it.- No, you can't blame anybody.
0:42:27 > 0:42:32- You've been sports about it. Thanks for coming on the show.- Thank you.
0:42:32 > 0:42:38The lucky old Blues are going home with money - £23. They very sensibly didn't go with the bonus buy.
0:42:38 > 0:42:45- They preserved their £23. Well done, Danny. Well done, Pete. I hope you enjoyed the experience.- Thank you.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47Are you giving your dad £3?
0:42:47 > 0:42:49I paid the petrol as well.
0:42:51 > 0:42:55- Anyway, congratulations. - That's it, Charlie's the man.
0:42:55 > 0:42:58That's very sweet of you. Anyway, good...
0:42:58 > 0:43:02- Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?- Yes!
0:43:03 > 0:43:05I know, you're sitting there thinking,
0:43:05 > 0:43:08"I could have done better than that."
0:43:08 > 0:43:10Well, what's stopping you?
0:43:10 > 0:43:14If you think you can spot a bargain, go to our BBC website and apply.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16It'll be splendid to see you.
