0:00:02 > 0:00:05Norfolk, dubbed Nelson Country after Horatio Lord Nelson,

0:00:05 > 0:00:07who was born here.

0:00:07 > 0:00:10And in the words of the great Horatio,

0:00:10 > 0:00:15"Five minutes makes the difference between defeat and victory."

0:00:15 > 0:00:19So how about 60 minutes? Let's go bargain-hunting, yeah!

0:00:45 > 0:00:50The Norfolk Showground is host to many a county show,

0:00:50 > 0:00:54and on today's programme our teams are going head to head

0:00:54 > 0:00:56for the honour of being best in show.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58But who will be top dog?!

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Will it be the Reds, or will it be the Blues?

0:01:01 > 0:01:02Let's find out, shall we?

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Today, the Reds are working up a thirst.

0:01:06 > 0:01:10- Do you like champagne, Jessica? - I love pink champagne.- Do you?!

0:01:10 > 0:01:14I love hip flasks, um... and what's inside them, of course.

0:01:14 > 0:01:18If that was full of a nice claret, it'd be worth double.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22- And the Blues are bang on. - How old do you think that is?

0:01:22 > 0:01:25- Uh...Victorian.- Well, good, yeah, how did you know that?

0:01:25 > 0:01:28- I read the label.- Did you? You didn't have to...

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Before all that, let's get acquainted.

0:01:32 > 0:01:37Well, it's fathers and daughters, the theme of our programme today,

0:01:37 > 0:01:39and for the Reds we've got James and Jessica,

0:01:39 > 0:01:42and for the Blues we've got Stephen and Olivia.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44- Hello, everyone.- Hello!

0:01:44 > 0:01:47Now, Jimmy, what's this about you knocking around with royalty, then?

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Yeah, I was ten years in Saudi Arabia, in Riyadh, the capital.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53- I taught at King Faisal School... - Did you?

0:01:53 > 0:01:56..which had all the sons of princes and kings,

0:01:56 > 0:01:58and I had a thoroughly good time.

0:01:58 > 0:02:01And did you drag the kids with you? Everybody went to live out there?

0:02:01 > 0:02:05- The whole lot.- I was dragged in. - Well, I went first...- Yeah, yeah.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08..and when I found it was great, I brought the family over.

0:02:08 > 0:02:09So, Jess, when you were there,

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- presumably you went to a lot of markets.- Loads.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- You like a bit of shopping.- Yes.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17You're going to like it on Bargain Hunt, then, aren't you?

0:02:17 > 0:02:22- So any techniques, how to haggle well?- Embarrassingly, yes.

0:02:22 > 0:02:27- I was led astray by Dad's friend. We used to go to souks.- Roger, yes.

0:02:27 > 0:02:32Roger, and he used to teach us to get the stall owner like this.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36- No!- And just slap him. - Progressively getting harder.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38- Harder, and he would drop the price. - Really?- Yes.

0:02:38 > 0:02:42I suggest you don't try that today here in Norwich, right?

0:02:42 > 0:02:46Cos you try that technique and you might not get on so terribly well.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49- No!- Anyway, so you've learned how to do it, anyway...- Yes.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50..which is perfect.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53Will you be buying things like that today, do you think?

0:02:53 > 0:02:55Well, I'd love to come across some Middle Eastern things,

0:02:55 > 0:02:57- but there's no guarantee.- No, no.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59- But I will keep my eyes peeled. - Keep your eye peeled.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02I have every confidence in you, you international couple, you,

0:03:02 > 0:03:05which is going to be so much fun. Anyway, good luck.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09Now, for the Blues, Stephen, you're a man of many talents,

0:03:09 > 0:03:12- but essentially of the agrarian variety.- That's correct, yes.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14- You farm here.- Yes, I do, I've been farming here all my life.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17And what's so great about Norfolk as a farming place?

0:03:17 > 0:03:19- Because it's very flat, right? - Well, it is, yes,

0:03:19 > 0:03:22so you haven't got too many hills to worry about going up and down,

0:03:22 > 0:03:25but we love it here, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else, to be honest.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28- You also like to do a bit of acting. - Yes.- What sort of productions?

0:03:28 > 0:03:30Well, I do a lot of local stuff.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33I was Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar in the spring.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Were you? Were you? - Yes, and I've been in The Crucible

0:03:36 > 0:03:38and many various things over the years.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41- You're pretty hot property, then. - Well, I quite enjoy it.- What fun!

0:03:41 > 0:03:44What does the daughter think about going and seeing the father?

0:03:44 > 0:03:47- Is that good fun?- Yeah, it is, cos I do a little bit myself as well.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Oh, do you?- Yeah. - It's a thespian family, then!

0:03:50 > 0:03:52- A little bit. - That's amazing, isn't it?

0:03:52 > 0:03:55So, Olivia, you were born on the farm, right?

0:03:55 > 0:03:57Yeah, lived there my whole life.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00- You've got a bit of a thing about tractors, haven't you?- Yeah, I do.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03I do a tractor run every year,

0:04:03 > 0:04:06which is a group of women all dressed in pink,

0:04:06 > 0:04:09and raise money for, uh... Cancer Research.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11- Really?- Yes. - I mean, it must be quite a sight.

0:04:11 > 0:04:15- Yeah, it's a real spectacle.- So how many women and how many tractors?

0:04:15 > 0:04:17This year, cos it was the tenth anniversary,

0:04:17 > 0:04:19- there was 160 tractors.- No!- Yeah.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22- All driven by women, all in pink? - All in pink, all driven by women.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24Where do you drive to and from, then?

0:04:24 > 0:04:28We go through places like Harleston, hundreds of people,

0:04:28 > 0:04:29100 people lining the streets.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31I think you're going to have good fun today.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33Will you be buying anything agriculturally related,

0:04:33 > 0:04:34do you think, on the show?

0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Well, I think if we can find anything.- Yeah.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41- But we'll keep an open mind.- Open mind, that is the way to proceed.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43And now you get the money moment, £300 apiece.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46There's your £300, Jess. There you go, Olivia.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!

0:04:49 > 0:04:53And very, very, very good luck. Ladies in pink on tractors, eh?

0:04:53 > 0:04:56OK, that's today's family teams,

0:04:56 > 0:04:59but who's here to help them out?

0:04:59 > 0:05:02Lifting the veil on the antiques world for the Reds,

0:05:02 > 0:05:04it's Caroline Hawley.

0:05:04 > 0:05:09And hoping to change the fortunes of the Blues, it's Thomas Plant.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11James, Jessica, what's the plan of action today?

0:05:11 > 0:05:14What are you looking for? Do you agree, are you falling out, what?

0:05:14 > 0:05:16- Um... - We're going to try and agree.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19- So are you guys excited? - Oh, yes!- So excited!

0:05:19 > 0:05:23I can sense you're quite excited. Are you this excited on the farm?

0:05:23 > 0:05:25I'm always excited a lot of the time.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Things that I like, I'll have the final say,

0:05:28 > 0:05:31and if he has more knowledge, he'll have the final say.

0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Does Dad have more knowledge? - Of course!- Yeah, he's wiser, older.

0:05:34 > 0:05:36- Good! You've trained your daughter well.- I have, actually.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40- Right, come on, let's go.- I wasn't expecting that.- Let's go shopping!

0:05:40 > 0:05:42- How are we going to cope?- I figure it's going to be a nightmare.

0:05:42 > 0:05:46- Is your daughter always like this? - Certainly is.- Oh, my God!

0:05:46 > 0:05:50No time for reflection, teams, step to it!

0:05:50 > 0:05:52It won't fit on my head.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54Because you've got a big head or a small head?

0:05:54 > 0:05:58- A perfect fit!- I've got a big head! - Perfect, is it an opera top hat?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Opera... No, it's not. Opera top hats collapse,

0:06:00 > 0:06:03and then when you want them to go, you go...and it goes...

0:06:03 > 0:06:05- Oh, brilliant.- It pops out.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07- But no. - SHE LAUGHS

0:06:07 > 0:06:09I've got a really big head.

0:06:10 > 0:06:13- Nothing fits me.- It would look good if it was the right size.

0:06:13 > 0:06:14Yeah, absolutely, absolutely.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16Do you know, top hats are good when they fit me.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18- If they fit me, they're worth buying.- Oh, really?

0:06:18 > 0:06:21Because our heads have just got bigger and bigger and bigger,

0:06:21 > 0:06:25as the generations have gone on, it's all that protein we eat.

0:06:25 > 0:06:27Ah...

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Who'd have thought you could tell all that from a top hat?

0:06:30 > 0:06:32You're amazing, Thomas.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36- Do you like champagne? - I love pink champagne.- Do you?

0:06:36 > 0:06:41- Pink is my favourite. Champagne flute.- You like the flutes better?

0:06:41 > 0:06:44- I think the flutes are nice. I'd like to hold it like that.- I don't.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- I think they are more elegant. - I think those are really elegant.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49- Shall we see how much they are?- Yes.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55- Are they individually...?- £145.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57For all of them? For the whole thing?

0:06:59 > 0:07:03- Yes.- For six.- I think that is a lot of money.- Too much.- Yeah.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06I expect a magnum of champagne for that, as well. Come on.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Move on, Jessica.- Let's go. - I would. Pink champagne as well!

0:07:16 > 0:07:20- How much for the box of keys? - 65 is the best.

0:07:20 > 0:07:24- How much?- £65.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26They are good things, are they?

0:07:26 > 0:07:29Something in an auction, a box of keys, it is just a good lot,

0:07:29 > 0:07:35- isn't it?- I quite like them. - Go on, go on, Steve!- All right.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38- What was she saying?- 65 is the best. Go and negotiate.- OK.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41How do you think he'll do?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Erm... See if he turns on the charm. I don't know!

0:07:44 > 0:07:49- Is he a charmer, your old man? - A little bit!- Is he?- Go on, Dad!

0:07:49 > 0:07:54Now, can I spot a theme emerging in the Red camp with this decanter?

0:07:54 > 0:07:57- I don't think it has got a lot of age to it.- No, it hasn't.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03And it is obviously a glass with a plated mount. What sort of price?

0:08:03 > 0:08:05SELLER: 135.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09- I think that is way too much money.- Because of the age?

0:08:10 > 0:08:13Yes, I think so. It is a lovely thing. Hello, sir.

0:08:13 > 0:08:15I mean, what would you...?

0:08:15 > 0:08:18What would the mileage be with the price tag?

0:08:18 > 0:08:21If that was full of a nice claret, it would be worth double.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25- You would probably see double of it! - Oh, you would!

0:08:25 > 0:08:27I think it is lovely,

0:08:27 > 0:08:30but I think it is too expensive to sell again at a profit.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32- Thanks very much. - Thank you very, very much.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36- Caught Jessica's eye from across the room.- It did.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40So, has Stephen proved to be a smooth operator with those keys?

0:08:40 > 0:08:43It is amazing, somebody has sprayed them.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Put them around photo frames.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49- Have you got anywhere yet? What are you doing, just chatting?- Yeah!

0:08:49 > 0:08:51- Have you got a price yet? - Well, we've got to find out.

0:08:53 > 0:08:57- So, madam, what is your best price on these?- 65 is the best.

0:08:57 > 0:08:59How about 50?

0:08:59 > 0:09:02- How about no?- 60?- 60?- 55.- No.

0:09:02 > 0:09:06- Why not?- 65.- 60.- Well done.

0:09:06 > 0:09:10- What do you think?- I like... I think we should go with it.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12- We can do a lot with them. - First lot?

0:09:13 > 0:09:16- That's fab, isn't it? - One down.- Let's go.

0:09:16 > 0:09:21Well done, Blues, locking down your first buy within 12 minutes.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24Now, has James clocked a bargain too?

0:09:24 > 0:09:28- Caroline? Jess? - Oh, what's he found?

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Sorry, James, we continued on our merry way.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35All right, what do you think about the clock?

0:09:35 > 0:09:36Do you know, that is lovely.

0:09:37 > 0:09:41- It is quite nice condition. - Definite Chinese vibe to it.

0:09:41 > 0:09:46- Yeah, absolutely. What sort of price is it though?- 495 on there.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49- How much?!- 495, yeah. - Do you know how much money we have?

0:09:49 > 0:09:51I have had a word with the gentleman,

0:09:51 > 0:09:54and he is prepared to do that for 190.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- Apparently he has had a good day. - He has had a jolly good day!

0:09:58 > 0:10:00And I'm having a good day if he will...

0:10:00 > 0:10:01And he will let it go at 190?

0:10:01 > 0:10:03- He will let it go at 190. - What do you think, Jessica?

0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Are you happy with that?- I like it. - Shall we shake the gentleman's hand?

0:10:06 > 0:10:08- I definitely like it. - Yes, please do!

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Thank you very much. Good luck, sir.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12- Thank you very much. - That is brilliant.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- A very, very quick decision. - Excellent.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Goodness me, Jimmy.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19That is a big spend for your first buy.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23- I love things like that.- Why do you like things like this?- I don't know.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26- I just love the whole musical instruments thing.- Do you play?

0:10:26 > 0:10:29No, I don't play anything, to my shame. But I do like them.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31It had a mini spider on it.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34PRRRRP!

0:10:34 > 0:10:38Not that good, I know! But regimental things are quite popular.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41And, funnily enough, the Royal Welch Fusiliers,

0:10:41 > 0:10:44their ranks in the First World War were quite strong.

0:10:44 > 0:10:48And then, about 1915 they set up the Welsh Guards.

0:10:48 > 0:10:52And so a lot of people left the Welch Fusiliers

0:10:52 > 0:10:54to go to the Welsh Guards.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57- OK.- So, you know, I think there is collectable value in this.

0:10:57 > 0:10:59I think it is quite cool. Don't you?

0:10:59 > 0:11:02- That is quirky.- You spotted it. - Well, I like it.

0:11:02 > 0:11:08- But you know, I don't have any idea what the value would be.- It is £55.

0:11:08 > 0:11:12- Is it?- I would say it's worth probably 25. I might ask.- OK.

0:11:12 > 0:11:13Where has she gone?

0:11:15 > 0:11:20So, whilst TP rallies the troops, the Red team search for a miracle.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Could you tell me about this, or how much it is?

0:11:23 > 0:11:27I can. This is Miracle. So it has actually got a name.

0:11:27 > 0:11:32Which makes it collectable. It is just a bit of costume jewellery.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36- And it is very reasonable. - 1920s, '30s, is it?

0:11:37 > 0:11:41I think it is about '30s, yes. Very reasonable piece.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45- And is it a reasonable price? - It is. It's £10.

0:11:45 > 0:11:48Right. What do you think?

0:11:48 > 0:11:52- £10? I think you love it. - I do. I love these thistles.

0:11:52 > 0:11:57- We should go for it. Yeah. - Can you do any better, at all?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59The lowest, the very lowest I would go, is eight.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04- I think...- I think that's... it's got something, I think.

0:12:04 > 0:12:07- OK. OK.- What do you think? - Yeah.- Yes.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09- Brilliant.- Fantastic. - Take it for £8.

0:12:09 > 0:12:13- Lovely. Deal.- Thank you very much, deal.- Deal.- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16How different can you get, eh?

0:12:16 > 0:12:20From £190 for the clock down to £8 for this brooch.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Maybe they're not the big spenders I thought they were.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26- The owner's back here.- OK.- So, I've spoken to him about the bugle.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30- Right.- Right.- It's £25.- Really?- Oh! - Do you think that's worth it?

0:12:30 > 0:12:34Well, it could be worth a punt. Or I've spotted these -

0:12:34 > 0:12:37a Parker pen set from the '70s.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40- You've got the fountain pen and the biro and the pencil.- Yep.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43It's all there and never been really used.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46- In its original... - In its original slip.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Now... I'm a bit of a fan of pens only because

0:12:49 > 0:12:51they are quite popular these days cos

0:12:51 > 0:12:52they can be posted over the internet.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54- Right.- People like pens.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57What was it again? What did you say?

0:12:57 > 0:13:03- Them?- Yeah.- 45's on it... - Yeah.- I'll do it for 30.- £30.- OK.

0:13:05 > 0:13:07Still got the original cartridges, you know,

0:13:07 > 0:13:10refills that have never been used.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13- Oh, yeah. Underneath there. - Goodness.- Isn't that funny!

0:13:13 > 0:13:14Just as it came.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18- All complete.- It's all complete, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21- I might try that for 25.- Yeah, I was going to say. A bit lower.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24I might just have a quick chat and, er...

0:13:24 > 0:13:28- see. Would you be happy at 25? - I think so, wouldn't you?

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- You're not giving any... - Well...

0:13:31 > 0:13:34- I can see this face. - A pen's a pen, isn't it?

0:13:34 > 0:13:38- Do you know what...? - But it's a set.- Mm.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40Do you want the bugle instead?

0:13:40 > 0:13:45- I prefer the bugle. - What's it going to be, then, Blues?

0:13:45 > 0:13:49Are the pens mightier than the... ha... bugle!

0:13:49 > 0:13:51- We'll go with the bugle then.- Sure?

0:13:51 > 0:13:53You two have got more excitement with the bugle.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55I don't want to fall out with you.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58You've got more excitement with the bugle. And I will put these aside?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00- OK. You might come back. - A pen's a pen.- I might come back.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02CHUCKLING

0:14:02 > 0:14:06- I may come back.- Bugle it is.- Now that the bugle's only 25... - Yeah.- It could even be better.

0:14:06 > 0:14:08- Do you think we can get any less than that?- Maybe.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10- He's off.- He's off.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12Better go!

0:14:12 > 0:14:16So, the Blues opt for the bugle at £25 and with 30 minutes

0:14:16 > 0:14:19spent out in the cold they head inside to get warm

0:14:19 > 0:14:22and their final item.

0:14:22 > 0:14:26- What have you found, James? - You keep a cigar in it.- Oh, wow!

0:14:27 > 0:14:31- That's one cigar, isn't it? - That would be... the biggest...

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- Do you smoke?- I do. I love them, actually.

0:14:33 > 0:14:37- It's the only thing I smoke. - Do you smoke cigars the size of this one?

0:14:37 > 0:14:41I've never seen... "Made in Rangoon, The Great Eastern Trading Company."

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Mmm, no, at the end of the day it's just a bit of...

0:14:44 > 0:14:47metal tubing, it's only that that makes it interesting.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51- Yeah, and there's no cigar inside it.- And there's no cigar inside it...

0:14:51 > 0:14:55- Or lid.- Or lid.- Or lid. - Well spotted, Jessica.- Oh.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58I think that's just been vetoed by your daughter, James.

0:14:58 > 0:15:00- I think it has been. OK. - Yeah.- It's a fair veto, I think.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Just a pipe dream!

0:15:02 > 0:15:04Yes, just a pipe dream, yes.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07Great pun, Jess. Couldn't do it better myself.

0:15:09 > 0:15:10GONG CHIMES

0:15:10 > 0:15:13You like things which make noises, don't you?

0:15:13 > 0:15:16- The bugle and then the dinner gong. - This one, Grandma...

0:15:16 > 0:15:21- Had one.- Yes. One like this.- How old do you think that is?- Victorian.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Good. How did you know that? - I read the label.- Did you?

0:15:24 > 0:15:27You didn't have to say.

0:15:27 > 0:15:31"Well, actually, Thomas, it's because of the style, you know.

0:15:31 > 0:15:36"Don't you know this ornate style here and these grotesques?"

0:15:36 > 0:15:40- How much is it?- 69 at the moment. - £69?

0:15:40 > 0:15:41Who's going to speak to them?

0:15:41 > 0:15:49So far, I have to say, you two are appalling at doing the deal.

0:15:49 > 0:15:54- OK, right then.- You two have to go and do something magical.

0:15:54 > 0:16:00- If you can get it for...- If we can get it for 40.- Start at 35.- 35?

0:16:00 > 0:16:04- Start at 35 and see what happens. OK?- Is that not taking it...- No!- OK.

0:16:04 > 0:16:08It's an offer. Nobody should ever be offended by an offer. Go on.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16So, while the Blues haggle, the Reds quibble.

0:16:16 > 0:16:21I really like it but I can't imagine it doing very well at auction.

0:16:21 > 0:16:26Can't you? Poole, the name Poole. I love hip flasks,

0:16:26 > 0:16:29- and what's inside them, of course. - It doesn't have a lot of age to it.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31If it's plated and it's quite new, I think

0:16:31 > 0:16:34maybe we won't go for it, to be honest.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Now, are the Blues going for a gong?

0:16:37 > 0:16:43- What have you got it for?- The lady will come down to 50.- £19 off.- Yes.

0:16:43 > 0:16:47OK. It's not great but it's a start.

0:16:47 > 0:16:49Do you think it'll make a profit at that?

0:16:49 > 0:16:52It's got the potential of doing OK, but it's also got the potential

0:16:52 > 0:16:56of not, of, you know, starting at 20 and then selling for two.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Do you know what I mean?

0:16:58 > 0:17:02- You can connect with an item but is it going to make you money?- OK.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04I think the two items you've got will,

0:17:04 > 0:17:06- and I want you to get a little... - Bit more.

0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Come on.- Thank you very much.

0:17:09 > 0:17:13- It's very fair, very fair. - We'll carry on.- Carry on. Let's go.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16Thank you.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19- Seems the gong has gone. - Excuse me, please.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22Would it be all right to have a look at one of your items?

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Of course you may. What would you like to look at?

0:17:25 > 0:17:29Can you tell us anything about your instrument, the mandolin?

0:17:30 > 0:17:33- It does have a case.- It has a case?

0:17:33 > 0:17:36It does have a case but it's battered.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38What's the very, very, very, very best, please?

0:17:38 > 0:17:43- One musician to another, come on.- 75.- 75?

0:17:45 > 0:17:48What's the musical market like? This is the problem.

0:17:48 > 0:17:52It's a specialist market. It's a nice-looking thing.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54You've picked it up because you're a musician.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56That's beautiful rosewood, beautifully inlaid.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Inlaid there, isn't it?

0:17:58 > 0:18:01I'm not an expert on mandolins but with the tension,

0:18:01 > 0:18:06- what can happen is this twists.- It can twist and warp.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08The neck can bow either way?

0:18:08 > 0:18:11Keep doing this and eventually it'll twist. But it's not.

0:18:11 > 0:18:15Could this... Just a tiny little bit more on the price? We're...

0:18:15 > 0:18:21- 60?- Oh, you're a tough one. 72.- 72?

0:18:21 > 0:18:27- We were both thinking 60. - We were.- 65 then.

0:18:27 > 0:18:2965 and done.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- Thank you, sir. - Thank you very, very much.

0:18:33 > 0:18:38- You're not coming back again today, are you?- We won't dare.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43Well done, Reds, gaining your third and final purchase

0:18:43 > 0:18:44with time to spare.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48Now, have the Blues managed to hone down their search for item

0:18:48 > 0:18:51- number three? - What appealed to you on this?

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- I thought it was quite pretty.- It's dead pretty, isn't it?

0:18:54 > 0:18:55Do you know what this is called?

0:18:55 > 0:19:00It's called millefiori, which is Italian for 1,000 canes.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04These are canes of glass

0:19:04 > 0:19:06and then they've been all moulded together and then

0:19:06 > 0:19:10hand-blown into this vase in the Italian Murano style.

0:19:10 > 0:19:14- How old is it? - Well, it's not that old.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16With glass, the way to date glass is you look around the rim

0:19:16 > 0:19:18and see what wear there is.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21There's hardly any wear to this but it is very nice.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24- It's got a good look to it. - What do you think?

0:19:24 > 0:19:28It's not that old so I wouldn't go a bundle on it.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32I wouldn't go a bundle on it, but let's carry on.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34We've still got some time.

0:19:34 > 0:19:38Oh, well, the search continues but only six minutes left.

0:19:38 > 0:19:39That's not much of a cushion.

0:19:40 > 0:19:45- Ah, that's made for you. - Get that with the leftover lolly.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Leftover lolly.

0:19:47 > 0:19:52Good horse design, agricultural. It reflects you guys, doesn't it?

0:19:52 > 0:19:55I just saw it and I thought, I've got no idea.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58Words of Thomas. Put it down!

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Best keep them in check, Thomas, because time is running out.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04- Three minutes left.- Right, OK, so what's it between now?

0:20:04 > 0:20:06It is the glass vase and the gong.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09- Glass vase and the gong.- Yes.- Right, OK.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12- You don't like the fire irons set? - No.- No, OK?

0:20:12 > 0:20:17- I do like the glass vase.- OK, we're going to see what she'll do.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20- I think we're that desperate, we've got to buy.- OK.

0:20:25 > 0:20:29- £34?- £34.- Could you maybe stretch to 30?

0:20:29 > 0:20:31I think 30 is too much.

0:20:31 > 0:20:35- You would stretch to 30?- Yes, I will.

0:20:35 > 0:20:39- 28.- No, 30.- What do you reckon?- £30.

0:20:39 > 0:20:42You've got no choice. I think we've got to get it.

0:20:42 > 0:20:46I really like it, I'll take full responsibility. It is pretty.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49It is pretty and I'll tell you what, I trust a lady's eye, because,

0:20:49 > 0:20:52- you know, it could be quite good. - OK.

0:20:52 > 0:20:56We've bought manly things. Our only female item we've bought.

0:20:56 > 0:21:00- Third and final with seconds to spare.- OK.- Brilliant, let's do it.

0:21:00 > 0:21:05- Go for it. Well done. - Well done.- Sorry!- Sorry.

0:21:05 > 0:21:09So that's £30 and you're all done with seconds to spare.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12That's it, time's up.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Let us have a look at what the Red team bought, hey?

0:21:17 > 0:21:22They picked up the chinoiserie clock for a bold £190.

0:21:22 > 0:21:28Next, they bought the Celtic miracle brooch for a phenomenal £8.

0:21:28 > 0:21:32Lastly, they plucked out the mandolin to the tune of £65.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36- Was that good or was it good? - It was fantastic.- Marvellous.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39You're so cheeky, you two, I tell you.

0:21:39 > 0:21:40Jess, which is your favourite piece?

0:21:40 > 0:21:45The brooch which has got thistles round the outside. Very pretty.

0:21:45 > 0:21:50- Thistles.- Thistles.- Very good. And do you agree with that, Dad?

0:21:50 > 0:21:51Mine is the mandolin, actually.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Is it going to bring the biggest profit?

0:21:53 > 0:21:56I think with the right buyer, it could do, actually.

0:21:56 > 0:22:01- What do you think, Jess?- I think our Chinese clock, which is unusual.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04- A bit of Oriental mystery, hey?- Yes. - Exactly.

0:22:04 > 0:22:08So, £263 spent, leaving £37.

0:22:08 > 0:22:09Caroline, go out there

0:22:09 > 0:22:12and convert that into something that is uber-profitable.

0:22:12 > 0:22:16- We've got faith.- Have you? - Good, good.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Anyway, enjoy a nice little rest. Meanwhile,

0:22:18 > 0:22:21we're going to check out what the Blue team bought, aren't we?

0:22:21 > 0:22:25They latched on to the box of keys, paying £60.

0:22:25 > 0:22:31Secondly, they mustered up the military bugle for a sound £25.

0:22:31 > 0:22:37And finally, the Murano-style glass vase for £35.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39- How was it?- Great.

0:22:39 > 0:22:40It was really good fun.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43- You can't believe the hour goes so quickly, can you?- No.

0:22:43 > 0:22:48- They were very excited.- Were they? - Somebody was a little too excited.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51OK, well, we might ask who that somebody was.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53Which is your favourite piece, Olivia?

0:22:53 > 0:22:56I like the vase that we bought, our last item that we bought.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58- OK, that is your favourite... favourite.- Yep.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00All right. And do you agree with that, Dad?

0:23:00 > 0:23:02I prefer the bugle -

0:23:02 > 0:23:05- the Royal Welch Fusiliers' bugle. - A bit of militaria.- Yeah.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08Is that going to bring the biggest profit, do you think?

0:23:08 > 0:23:09- I think so.- We hope so, yes.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12- We hope the bugle, yes.- That's your prediction anyway.- Yes.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14- And you spent how much?- 115.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16I'd like 185 of leftover lolly, please.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Thank you. That's it.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20That's a good wodge, isn't it?

0:23:20 > 0:23:23OK, Tom, for your challenge.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25I've got my eye on something and I don't think

0:23:25 > 0:23:27- there'll be much change.- Oh, no.

0:23:27 > 0:23:28Blow the lot, that's it.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31Anyway, very good luck. Meanwhile, why don't we have a look at

0:23:31 > 0:23:36two incredibly intricate bits from the 19th century?

0:23:42 > 0:23:45So what do you do if you're a high-born Oriental

0:23:45 > 0:23:48and you're going out somewhere smart

0:23:48 > 0:23:52and you haven't cut one of your fingernails for the last 42 years?

0:23:52 > 0:23:55Well, what you do is, you come here to Norwich

0:23:55 > 0:23:59to the showground and you find one of these...

0:23:59 > 0:24:00HE CHUCKLES

0:24:00 > 0:24:03..which is a silver and enamel fingernail guard.

0:24:03 > 0:24:08And this sheath fits over the fingernail and onto your pinkie.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10It's made of solid silver,

0:24:10 > 0:24:13probably around about 1880,

0:24:13 > 0:24:15probably in Canton.

0:24:15 > 0:24:16On top of the silver

0:24:16 > 0:24:18they've laid some wire,

0:24:18 > 0:24:21making little cells, and into that

0:24:21 > 0:24:22they've inserted some enamel,

0:24:22 > 0:24:25and then fired the enamel on top of the silver

0:24:25 > 0:24:27and created this decorative effect.

0:24:27 > 0:24:28What I want to know is,

0:24:28 > 0:24:32how does this weird and wonderful Chinese confection

0:24:32 > 0:24:34pitch up here in Norwich?

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Well, I haven't got the faintest idea.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39All I know is that with a bit of negotiation,

0:24:39 > 0:24:43you can buy such a treasure as this for £15,

0:24:43 > 0:24:45which is not much per square inch.

0:24:45 > 0:24:51Also, you find other delicious confections in silver,

0:24:51 > 0:24:52like this little boat.

0:24:52 > 0:24:56This looks just like a gondola, doesn't it?

0:24:56 > 0:24:58And where do you find gondolas? You find them in Venice.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01Except this has nothing to do with Venice

0:25:01 > 0:25:03because it was probably made in Malta,

0:25:03 > 0:25:05where, in Valletta harbour,

0:25:05 > 0:25:09they have similar-looking gondola vessels.

0:25:09 > 0:25:12What you need to do is put your close-up lens on

0:25:12 > 0:25:15and come and have a look at the way in which this gondola

0:25:15 > 0:25:19has been made, because it is made of, literally,

0:25:19 > 0:25:24thousands of bits of the finest silver wire you ever did see.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Each of those bits of silver wire has been contorted

0:25:27 > 0:25:29into whirls and squirls

0:25:29 > 0:25:33that go to make up the patterning on this vessel.

0:25:33 > 0:25:37Is that not the most extraordinary thing you ever did see?

0:25:37 > 0:25:41Well, it's called "filigree work" and it's very desirable.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43Now, for the sharp-eyed amongst you,

0:25:43 > 0:25:46you might have noticed that where the people sit

0:25:46 > 0:25:49is a mini inkwell and a pounce pot.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52And pounce is ground-up volcanic ash

0:25:52 > 0:25:56used instead of blotting paper to mop up any spare ink.

0:25:56 > 0:25:58The plinth itself is interesting.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01That's been applied with some silver foil

0:26:01 > 0:26:03and then rippled to make it look like water.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06A bit of later black paint, here.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09But look at the beautiful way the filigree has been crafted

0:26:09 > 0:26:11to make the four bracket feet.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13And if you turn it upside down,

0:26:13 > 0:26:18even the nuts on the bottom are made of filigree.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21The other joyous thing is, if you turn it upside down,

0:26:21 > 0:26:24it's got a little sticker on it. What does the sticker say?

0:26:24 > 0:26:25£22.50.

0:26:25 > 0:26:30Do a bit of negotiation and this confection of the finest wire

0:26:30 > 0:26:32you ever did see in all your life

0:26:32 > 0:26:34could be yours for £15.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36Amazing!

0:26:39 > 0:26:41Well, the question is,

0:26:41 > 0:26:46will the bidders be taking a punt over at the auction?

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Any advance on £50?

0:26:49 > 0:26:52It will sell to my maiden bidder for £50. All done?

0:26:54 > 0:26:56GAVEL BANGS

0:26:56 > 0:26:57Well, how jolly is this,

0:26:57 > 0:27:00to come to Diss to be with Elizabeth Talbot,

0:27:00 > 0:27:02in the saleroom in Diss?

0:27:02 > 0:27:04- How are you?- I'm well, Tim. Thank you.- Good.

0:27:04 > 0:27:08- James and Jessica went with this strut timepiece.- Mm-hm.- Any good?

0:27:08 > 0:27:12It has the look of the chinoiserie period - early 20th century -

0:27:12 > 0:27:14but it's a very basic timepiece,

0:27:14 > 0:27:16- decorative rather than anything else.- OK, fine.

0:27:16 > 0:27:20- What's your estimate on that? - £70 to £100.- £190 paid.

0:27:20 > 0:27:21On the basis of that,

0:27:21 > 0:27:23they don't stand a snowflake's chance in a warm place.

0:27:23 > 0:27:26- I don't think so.- Good. Um, now,

0:27:26 > 0:27:29the little brooch, which is sort of Woolworths, isn't it?

0:27:29 > 0:27:31In a polite way, yes, it is.

0:27:31 > 0:27:33It's just a stamped metal, tinny type of brooch.

0:27:33 > 0:27:34Very much costume jewellery.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36- With a bit of glass in it.- Yes.- Yup.

0:27:36 > 0:27:38A bluish glass. How much for a lump of blue glass

0:27:38 > 0:27:42- in some tin?- We hope it will get £10 to £15.- You are marvellous.

0:27:42 > 0:27:45£8 paid. Super-duper. And let's see if we can

0:27:45 > 0:27:49strum forward here with this mandolin.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52- Beautifully made...- Yes. - ..exquisite objects...

0:27:52 > 0:27:55- Yes.- ..that make very, very little at auction.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58Yes, they're beautifully crafted and it's lovely use of timber,

0:27:58 > 0:28:00expensive wood, as it would be in the day,

0:28:00 > 0:28:01but they are quite prolific.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03- Yes.- A lot of them around.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05I quite agree. But for that amount of work

0:28:05 > 0:28:08in rosewood, with those fine lines and all the rest of it,

0:28:08 > 0:28:10they ought to be worth £200 to £300, right?

0:28:10 > 0:28:13- Ideally.- But what are they worth?

0:28:13 > 0:28:15- £40 to £60.- There you go. It's not much, is it?- No.

0:28:15 > 0:28:18- So they've got some difficulty here, I would say...- Yes.

0:28:18 > 0:28:20..principally in the timepiece, in which case

0:28:20 > 0:28:23they'll need their bonus buy. We'll go and have a look at it.

0:28:24 > 0:28:29So, chaps, leftover lolly went to Caroline. What did you spend it on?

0:28:29 > 0:28:31I spent it on...

0:28:31 > 0:28:33this for my travelling pals.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35- Oh.- Oh-ho.- Wow.

0:28:35 > 0:28:39It's a lovely leather suitcase

0:28:39 > 0:28:40in nice condition.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42- Leather hearts.- Leather hearts.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44"Stateroom baggage". Yeah.

0:28:44 > 0:28:47But the question is, how much do you think it's going to make in auction?

0:28:47 > 0:28:50- What did it cost?- Well, Jessica, James,

0:28:50 > 0:28:53- I paid £32.- £32.

0:28:53 > 0:28:55And I think it could well double its money.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57- Good luck.- Yes.

0:28:57 > 0:28:59It feels like we're going on holiday, doesn't it?

0:28:59 > 0:29:01- It does.- I'm all excited.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03And you've only just met!

0:29:03 > 0:29:04THEY LAUGH

0:29:04 > 0:29:06- OK, Jess, what do you think about it?- I like it.- You like it.

0:29:06 > 0:29:07Fair enough. Say no more.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09Jimmy, do you like it or not?

0:29:09 > 0:29:12- I do.- It's very characterful, isn't it?- It is.

0:29:12 > 0:29:13Just like Caroline. Good.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16You watched her lips. She said she's going to double your money.

0:29:16 > 0:29:18- OK? Happy with that?- Yes.

0:29:18 > 0:29:21On the other hand, you may not need it because you may have made

0:29:21 > 0:29:23so much profit that you may not need the bonus buy.

0:29:23 > 0:29:24Let's be positive.

0:29:24 > 0:29:26But right now, for the audience at home,

0:29:26 > 0:29:29let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Caroline's case.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33Right, Elizabeth, a little something for the weekend.

0:29:33 > 0:29:36- THEY CHUCKLE - How do you rate this?

0:29:36 > 0:29:40Oh, it's a lovely piece of vintage luggage and people do like this.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44I mean, they both collect it and some people renovate it and use it,

0:29:44 > 0:29:46and have the pleasure of, you know, the well-crafted pieces.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48I love the labels on this one.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- I think it gives a bit of atmosphere.- It really does.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53A lot of the time, these labels are bogus.

0:29:53 > 0:29:55These, I don't think they are.

0:29:55 > 0:29:58- No.- I think they really do span a few decades of travel,

0:29:58 > 0:30:02which, as you say, is evocative and really rather special.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Um, so it wants tickling up but not much.

0:30:04 > 0:30:05What's it worth?

0:30:05 > 0:30:08We've put £40 to £60 on that one.

0:30:08 > 0:30:09Bravo,

0:30:09 > 0:30:12cos £32 was paid by Caroline and I think she's got it spot-on.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15That's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18They've got a collection of keys, mainly rusty old keys.

0:30:18 > 0:30:20What's a group of rusty old keys worth?

0:30:20 > 0:30:23Well, round about £20 to £30.

0:30:23 > 0:30:27OK. Well, Thomas Plant got very, very worked up about these

0:30:27 > 0:30:29and £60 was paid.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31So that's a bit of a blow, isn't it?

0:30:31 > 0:30:34The bugle for the Welch Fusiliers.

0:30:34 > 0:30:37- You couldn't get much further from Wales.- I was going to say,

0:30:37 > 0:30:40- geographically it's in totally the wrong place.- Quite.

0:30:40 > 0:30:43But militarily it's in a good place because we do have

0:30:43 > 0:30:45a good market for items which relate to military history.

0:30:45 > 0:30:49- We're hoping that this will sell reasonably well.- Yes.

0:30:49 > 0:30:53It's a bit of a boom area as a collectible, isn't it, militaria?

0:30:53 > 0:30:55It is. We're going through several years of very important

0:30:55 > 0:30:58anniversaries. I think it's just focusing people's appreciation

0:30:58 > 0:31:01- and significance on the topic. - Exactly right.

0:31:01 > 0:31:04- So how much?- We've put £30 to £40 on that one.

0:31:04 > 0:31:06That's a good old blow. £25 paid.

0:31:06 > 0:31:07Um, good.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10- Now, the Murano-style jug.- Yes.

0:31:10 > 0:31:13- Is it Murano?- I would doubt it, to be honest.

0:31:13 > 0:31:14- OK.- I mean, who's to say?

0:31:14 > 0:31:17But I don't think it's got quite the quality.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20- Right, OK. So it's colourful.- Yes.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23- It's in good condition.- Yes. - And it's worth what?

0:31:23 > 0:31:25- £15 to £25.- OK, £30 paid.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27So they're not so far off really.

0:31:27 > 0:31:30If they've got a dark hole, it's the keys.

0:31:30 > 0:31:33- I think so.- Yeah, you might be struggling at £15 or £20.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36- I think so.- They paid £60, in which case they are going to need

0:31:36 > 0:31:38their bonus buy, so let's have a look at it.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41Olivia, Stephen, happy?

0:31:41 > 0:31:43- Yes.- Excited?- Yes.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46Good. OK, fine. You spent 115.

0:31:46 > 0:31:51You gave TP £185... for his bonus buy.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Thomas, show us what you invested it in.

0:31:53 > 0:31:55Well...

0:31:55 > 0:31:58I bought this rather fine

0:31:58 > 0:32:01enamel and silver bucket

0:32:01 > 0:32:03by Roca of Spain.

0:32:03 > 0:32:04It is fabulous.

0:32:04 > 0:32:07It is an ice bucket par excellence.

0:32:07 > 0:32:08If you want your ice in a bucket,

0:32:08 > 0:32:11you're going to want it in something like this, aren't you?

0:32:11 > 0:32:13- Yes.- You're not giving it any love, are you?

0:32:13 > 0:32:15It is so beautifully done.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18This enamelwork is very difficult to do.

0:32:18 > 0:32:22- I had a £5 note left out of all of this.- Did you really?- Yes.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Yeah, I did. I think it's rather good.

0:32:24 > 0:32:25- 180 then?- £180.- £180.

0:32:25 > 0:32:28- OK. You've got to handle it, Stephen.- Go on.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30Thomas will tell you that the body of that thing

0:32:30 > 0:32:32- is a sheet of copper. Right, Thomas?- Yes.

0:32:32 > 0:32:36The sheet of copper has then been fired

0:32:36 > 0:32:39with its enamel surface,

0:32:39 > 0:32:42to deliberately and artfully create that brown, bubbly business...

0:32:42 > 0:32:44- Absolutely. - ..which is the enamelling.

0:32:44 > 0:32:47- I do like the look of it.- It is good, isn't it? Yeah.

0:32:47 > 0:32:49- What do you think it's going to make?- It's a good question.

0:32:49 > 0:32:51They do a lot of 20th century here at Gaze's.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53It could, if somebody falls in love with it,

0:32:53 > 0:32:55make a bit of money.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57But it could just bomb.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59I do like the look of it. What do you think, dear?

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Um, er...

0:33:01 > 0:33:03- It's all right.- Yeah, OK. Not very much.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07- Not much.- Olivia, it's not your cup of tea?.- It's not, but...

0:33:07 > 0:33:10- it's not hideous.- OK. Thanks, Tom, for the lowdown on that.

0:33:10 > 0:33:13But right now, let's find out, for the audience at home,

0:33:13 > 0:33:16what the auctioneer thinks about Tom's bucket.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Well, there's a nice little bucket, isn't it?

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Well, I like this.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23I think it's got lovely quality and style to it, simple though it is.

0:33:23 > 0:33:26And where's the design... The design is in

0:33:26 > 0:33:28this rather nicely looped handle, isn't it,

0:33:28 > 0:33:31and the blob-a-lob on the end - concealed hinge?

0:33:31 > 0:33:33Less is more and I think the more you look at it,

0:33:33 > 0:33:36the more appreciative you can be of it.

0:33:36 > 0:33:37Tell me, how much?

0:33:37 > 0:33:39£60 to £80 on this.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41£180 paid by the Planter.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44- OK, are you taking the sale today? - I am.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46We're in safe hands.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57Jess, James, we're on the edge now.

0:33:57 > 0:33:58We're on the precipice.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00- Oh...- Anything could happen.

0:34:00 > 0:34:03What's your prediction, Jimmy? How are we going to get on?

0:34:03 > 0:34:06- Well, colossal profits really. - Really?- Yes.

0:34:06 > 0:34:08- Full of gung ho confidence? - Full of gung ho.

0:34:08 > 0:34:09Daughter ditto?

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Complete opposite.

0:34:11 > 0:34:12Oh...

0:34:12 > 0:34:16- I'm expecting to crash and burn.- Oh, don't be like this.

0:34:16 > 0:34:19How can there be this yawning gap between the family?

0:34:19 > 0:34:22- There is, isn't there?- I know. - It's a rift.- A rift!

0:34:22 > 0:34:24We can't see this, can we, James?

0:34:24 > 0:34:26First up is the chinoiserie timepiece.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28And here it comes.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31Lot 40 - the chinoiserie decorated clock.

0:34:31 > 0:34:35I have interest on the sheets and I start at £75.

0:34:35 > 0:34:38- She starts at £75.- 85.

0:34:38 > 0:34:4390. 5. 100. 110. 110. With me at 110. 120 the lady.

0:34:43 > 0:34:48- 130. 140. 150.- Hey.- 150. Still with me at 150. Looking for 60.

0:34:48 > 0:34:53It's a lovely piece. £150 only. Surely worth more? At 150.

0:34:53 > 0:34:57- Are you all done?- I can't bear it. £150 is where we're at,

0:34:57 > 0:35:00which is -£40, which is nothing like as bad as it could've been.

0:35:00 > 0:35:01- Right, James?- True. That's true.

0:35:01 > 0:35:05That is true. Now, watch the brooch.

0:35:05 > 0:35:07A brooch. Start me at £10.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10£10 on the pretty one there. At £10 surely?

0:35:10 > 0:35:135 I'll take. 5 is bid. Middle bid at 5.

0:35:13 > 0:35:14Now gentleman's bid 6 is seated.

0:35:14 > 0:35:188 got. 10 bid. 12 I have. 15...

0:35:18 > 0:35:19(Might make a profit.)

0:35:19 > 0:35:22..20. 2...

0:35:22 > 0:35:2422 standing on the aisle. At 22. Now looking for 5.

0:35:24 > 0:35:2625 - new bidder.

0:35:26 > 0:35:2825 on the brooch. Any advance?

0:35:28 > 0:35:32It's marvellous. £25. I can't believe it.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34Isn't she brilliant? Give her a kiss.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36Give her a kiss. Quick. Lovely.

0:35:36 > 0:35:3825. So you're +17 on that.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40Look out, here comes Ferrari's mandolin.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43We have a cased early 20th century Ferrari & Co,

0:35:43 > 0:35:47Napoli, spruce-topped, rosewood bowl-backed mandolin. There it is

0:35:47 > 0:35:49with its case. This is a lovely item.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53A low start at just £22. 22. 25.

0:35:53 > 0:35:5828. 30 in the room and I'm out. 32, new bidder. 35. 38.

0:35:58 > 0:36:0340. 2. 45. 48. 50. 5. 60. 5...

0:36:03 > 0:36:07- Ooh!- ..70. 5. 80, new bidder just behind.

0:36:07 > 0:36:0985. Moving upstairs at 90.

0:36:09 > 0:36:13Are you all out downstairs? You can come back. 95! Oh, 100 at the front.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15We're coming to the front at 100.

0:36:15 > 0:36:17Where's 10? £100.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19It will sell.

0:36:19 > 0:36:24- Yes!- Yes!- That's so good! That is +£35.

0:36:24 > 0:36:25That means you are now +£12,

0:36:25 > 0:36:28all thanks to that thing. It was a good one, wasn't it?

0:36:28 > 0:36:31Now, what are we going to do about the old bag, eh?

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- Are you going to...- Old bag, Tim?!

0:36:33 > 0:36:34I'm sorry!

0:36:34 > 0:36:36- Excuse me!- How insulting!

0:36:36 > 0:36:39- What are we going to do though?- I want to go with it.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41- You want to go with it.- I really like it.

0:36:41 > 0:36:44- Yup.- You've made your decision

0:36:44 > 0:36:45and here it comes!

0:36:45 > 0:36:49Lot 46 now. A fine piece of vintage luggage here.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52It's the Nan Hing Leather Company suitcase.

0:36:52 > 0:36:56Start me at 50. A fine suitcase. £50. A good, practical size.

0:36:56 > 0:36:5820, sir?

0:36:58 > 0:37:0220 bid. We're starting at 20. Must be worth more than £20.

0:37:02 > 0:37:0622 is seated. 25. 28. And 30. 2.

0:37:06 > 0:37:0735...

0:37:07 > 0:37:09- Come on.- Go on.- Please?

0:37:09 > 0:37:10..40. Thank God.

0:37:10 > 0:37:1540 standing. At 40. Made a bid at 40. 2 I'll take. It's a super price.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17At £40. On the aisle at 40.

0:37:17 > 0:37:18GAVEL BANGS

0:37:18 > 0:37:21£40 is brilliant. On her low estimate it shows an £8 profit.

0:37:21 > 0:37:23You can't ask for more than that, can you?

0:37:23 > 0:37:25You are £20

0:37:25 > 0:37:27better off than you were seven minutes ago.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29- How good is that? Happy with that?- Fantastic.

0:37:29 > 0:37:31- Very happy.- That could be a winning score today.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34It deserves to be a winning score. Don't say a word to the Blues.

0:37:34 > 0:37:37- Mum is the word.- Thank you, Caroline.

0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Thank YOU, Caroline. Well done.- Yes.

0:37:48 > 0:37:51Olivia, Stephen, have you been talking to the Reds?

0:37:51 > 0:37:54- We haven't.- You haven't. So you don't know how well or badly they did?

0:37:54 > 0:37:57- No idea.- OK, that's great. We don't want you to know either.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59Now, Olivia, I have to ask you,

0:37:59 > 0:38:03- are you having any second thoughts about anything?- Um...

0:38:03 > 0:38:07not second thoughts. I'm a bit dubious on a couple of them.

0:38:07 > 0:38:08Like what?

0:38:08 > 0:38:11I just don't think the keys are going to do very well.

0:38:11 > 0:38:12Funnily enough, nor do I.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15And nor does the auctioneer.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18She's put £20 to £30 on that box, which you paid

0:38:18 > 0:38:20£60 for. We'll see what happens.

0:38:20 > 0:38:23- Yes.- Anything else you're feeling shifty about?

0:38:23 > 0:38:26- Well, we're not too certain about the vase either.- No.

0:38:26 > 0:38:28- Are you not?- It was a panic buy.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31Was it? Well, you had to grab it, didn't you, Olivia?

0:38:31 > 0:38:33And you had to go with something. You paid £30.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36She's estimated £15 to £25. I wouldn't worry about it.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38It's very decorative and it's not chipped. It's not bust.

0:38:38 > 0:38:41Somebody will have a go at it.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44It'll be fine, all right? First up though are the dodgy ones.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46The keys. Here they come.

0:38:46 > 0:38:51Lot 62 now. The collection of 19th-century keys in a tobacco box.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11You never know when they might come in useful. At £32.

0:39:11 > 0:39:12GAVEL BANGS

0:39:12 > 0:39:1432. It hasn't crept enough.

0:39:14 > 0:39:1632 is 8 off 40.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18That's -28 but it could have been a lot worse.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21Right, here comes the bugle. Stand by.

0:39:21 > 0:39:22The Royal Welch Fusiliers.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25It's travelled a few miles to get here but there it is, look.

0:39:34 > 0:39:37Oh, she's sitting on bids.

0:39:37 > 0:39:42..It is with me at 45. I've lost you on my right. 45 I have. Where's 8?

0:39:42 > 0:39:44It's a good bugle. At 48. And 50.

0:39:44 > 0:39:49And again it's with me at 50. Worth a try. 55 is the gallery. 60 I have.

0:39:49 > 0:39:5165 in the gallery. Any advance?

0:39:51 > 0:39:53GAVEL BANGS

0:39:58 > 0:40:00I can't believe it! £40 profit!

0:40:00 > 0:40:02OK, that means overall you're +12.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05Stand by for the twin-handled glass vase.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07Millefiori, twin-handled glass vase.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13Murano style for you at 20. 10 I'll take.

0:40:13 > 0:40:15Somebody bid!

0:40:15 > 0:40:17I'm not liking the look of this.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19- It is pretty.- Where's 12?

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Surely worth more? At £10.

0:40:21 > 0:40:25Where's the 12? At £10. It will sell, if you're all done, at £10.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27- Oh, no.- I can't bear it.

0:40:27 > 0:40:28- GAVEL BANGS - Oh, no, baby!

0:40:28 > 0:40:30£10 is -£20.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32You had £12. You're now -8.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35- My, God!- How bad can that be? That's rotten, isn't it?

0:40:35 > 0:40:38- Never mind.- Oh, dear. So what are you going to do?

0:40:38 > 0:40:39You are -£8.

0:40:39 > 0:40:43Are you going to risk it for the old Spanish bucket?

0:40:43 > 0:40:46- I think we'll...- At £180?

0:40:46 > 0:40:49- I think 180 is a bit stiff, don't you?- No, we can't go with it.

0:40:49 > 0:40:53- We're not going with it.- No? Even though you really, really liked it?

0:40:53 > 0:40:54Um...

0:40:54 > 0:40:58- No?- I don't think so.- The bucket is coming up right now.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00Lot 69 next. The Spanish, silver and enamel

0:41:00 > 0:41:02ice bucket by J Roca.

0:41:02 > 0:41:06This is a wonderful, stylish piece. Start me at 50.

0:41:06 > 0:41:08(Oh, no...)

0:41:08 > 0:41:10£50. At £50?

0:41:10 > 0:41:11Good quality here.

0:41:11 > 0:41:1440 I'll take on the ice bucket.

0:41:14 > 0:41:18- Come on. 40, sir? 40 I have by the door. At 40. I'm looking for- 2. No.

0:41:18 > 0:41:21It's not a lot. Should be worth more. Come on.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23At £40. Where are you at 2?

0:41:23 > 0:41:25It's a maiden bid. Can I not tempt you to more?

0:41:25 > 0:41:27At £40. All done?

0:41:27 > 0:41:28GAVEL BANGS

0:41:28 > 0:41:31- That is wicked, Tom, isn't it? - It's shocking.

0:41:31 > 0:41:33That is shocking. It's -140.

0:41:33 > 0:41:35We're going to glaze over that.

0:41:35 > 0:41:38Your score - you didn't go with the bonus buy, thank goodness -

0:41:38 > 0:41:42is -£8. Yes? Overall, -£8 could be a winning score.

0:41:42 > 0:41:43True.

0:41:43 > 0:41:47On this programme it normally is. So don't say a word to the Reds

0:41:47 > 0:41:49until we get our little conflab, all right?

0:41:49 > 0:41:51OK. Super. Good stuff.

0:41:58 > 0:42:02- Well, teams, been chatting about the score?- ALL: No, we haven't.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04No, you haven't. Not at all.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06So you genuinely have no idea who is ahead and who is behind?

0:42:06 > 0:42:08- No.- No.- On Bargain Hunt,

0:42:08 > 0:42:11we don't have losers - we only have runners-up.

0:42:11 > 0:42:13And I regret to tell you that the runners-up today

0:42:13 > 0:42:16- by a chalk are the Blues.- BLUES: Oh!

0:42:16 > 0:42:18-£8!

0:42:18 > 0:42:21Which ordinarily on Bargain Hunt would be a winning score, all right?

0:42:21 > 0:42:25- Without any shadow of doubt. Have you had a good time?- Lovely.

0:42:25 > 0:42:28- Has it been good?- Lovely. - You've been fantastic on the show.

0:42:33 > 0:42:34They're going home with £20!

0:42:34 > 0:42:36- Hooray(!)- Oh-ho-ho!

0:42:36 > 0:42:40Look at her face - lighting up like a National cash register.

0:42:40 > 0:42:42It makes it all worthwhile.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44Did you have a good time?

0:42:44 > 0:42:47- Amazing.- Fantastic.- Caroline is just fantastic.
