0:00:02 > 0:00:04FANFARE PLAYS
0:00:06 > 0:00:08TIM: Today, we're in Epsom in Surrey,
0:00:08 > 0:00:11where the only racing we're going to be doing
0:00:11 > 0:00:13is against the clock.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16So, saddle up, cos we're under starter's orders
0:00:16 > 0:00:18and let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:18 > 0:00:19Yeah.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Epsom Downs Racecourse is the venue
0:00:44 > 0:00:46for today's antiques fair,
0:00:46 > 0:00:49where each of our teams will be given £300
0:00:49 > 0:00:51to complete the course,
0:00:51 > 0:00:53and hopefully acquire three objects
0:00:53 > 0:00:55to take home and sell later at auction.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57The team wins that makes the biggest profits
0:00:57 > 0:01:00or the smallest losses.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Epsom Downs, eh?
0:01:02 > 0:01:04More like 'ups and...downs'.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07Ha! Let's have a look at what's coming up.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12On today's program, our teams get set for battle.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Samurai is a race of warriors, like you two.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17- Like you two. - Warriors of the field.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20It looks actually quite appealing
0:01:20 > 0:01:23in a...killer way.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26But who will reign victorious at the auction?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29What?!
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Now, let's meet the teams, eh?
0:01:31 > 0:01:35Well, today's show's all about best buddies
0:01:35 > 0:01:39because today, for the Reds, we've got Trevor and Oliver,
0:01:39 > 0:01:41and for the Blues, we have Shona and Adele.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- Hello, everyone.- ALL: Hello. - Very nice to see you.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- Now, Trevor.- Yep? - How did you two meet?
0:01:47 > 0:01:51- I got invited to a Christmas party at Oliver's dad's old place.- Yeah.
0:01:51 > 0:01:52Had a couple of beers in the kitchen.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Started talking to, uh, Oliver.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59- And then, uh, yeah, just sort of friends ever since, really.- Yeah.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00It's called "bromance", isn't it?
0:02:00 > 0:02:02- Apparently so.- Apparently.- Yeah?
0:02:02 > 0:02:06So, there are certain separate moments, but you pretty well do everything together.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- Cos you work together now.- We work together.- Tell us about the work.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Farm work.- Farm work.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- Yep, on the farm, so sheep, cattle, pigs.- Yeah.- Turkeys.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17So, is this your farm, is it?
0:02:17 > 0:02:19- It's a family farm, yeah.- Right.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- How's your corn price this year? - Oh, all right.- All right.- Yeah.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Well, you never catch a farmer saying it's brilliant, do you?
0:02:25 > 0:02:26It's farmers, isn't it?
0:02:26 > 0:02:31- How are you going to get on with your Bargain Hunt today? "All right".- "It'll be reet," yeah.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32But it should be reasonable.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36So, Oliver, it's not just farming that keeps you two glued together.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40- Is it?- No. We've both got a passion for music.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44I play classical guitar. I did a bit of singing as well.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48But Trevor's a keen singer as well, and can play saxophone.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50So, yeah, it's good fun.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52So, talk to me about strategy today, then.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Are you going to be finding agricultural implements.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- Get something risky.- Get something really risky.- What - you mean 'risky', dodgy?
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- Well, you never know.- Well, yeah...
0:03:01 > 0:03:04- Look at his face light up like a candle.- A bit of the old...
0:03:04 > 0:03:06So, this could be quite a recipe.
0:03:06 > 0:03:10I think these two chaps are basically up for anything, if the truth is known.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Now, Shona, tell me, how did you girls meet?
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Um, basically, it was about ten years ago.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17We worked in the same office, but different departments.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19And I was in the kitchen, you know, having a break.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24I needed to find a fourth for a girls' holiday, and Adele happened to be there at the same time.
0:03:24 > 0:03:25And I invited her to come along,
0:03:25 > 0:03:30and she did, and we shared a room, and then we've been best friends ever since.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33- It's a bit like "Blind Date", that. - It was a bit like "Blind Date".- Yeah.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35But we've lived together for two years,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37we got engaged, separately, a month apart,
0:03:37 > 0:03:41got married in no time, each other's maid-of-honours.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43- Really?- We've got two boys, same ages.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45- That's so close and so sweet, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49- Now, listen, Shona, do I detect a touch of the antipodean in you? - Yes. A bit of a Kiwi.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52A bit of a Kiwi. And what dragged you over here, darling?
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Um, I just came cos my parents are Scottish,
0:03:55 > 0:03:57so I kind of came back over after university
0:03:57 > 0:03:59and then I met an Englishman.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- Did you marry him?- I married him. - That's a marvellous thing, isn't it? - Yep.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06Adele, it says here you spend most of your time with your head in the clouds.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Yes, um, I am cabin crew.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Um, absolutely love this job. I've been doing it for about eight years now.- Have you?- Yeah.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17And what's the best bit of that job? What's the perks, apart from the travel?
0:04:17 > 0:04:22Well, I do have to say, I did meet my very handsome husband at work.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24He's a pilot. Very cliched.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- No!- But, you know, you see them in a uniform...
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Cabin staff meets pilot department.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Romance ensues, right?
0:04:33 > 0:04:34- Indeed.- Isn't that amazing?
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Because, you know, one loves a romantic story.
0:04:37 > 0:04:41- And it's rather nice when it works out like that.- Yes. - Good. How lovely is that?
0:04:41 > 0:04:42OK, the money moment - £300 apiece.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46You know the rules. Your experts await. And off you go!
0:04:46 > 0:04:48And very, very, very good luck.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Dodgy. "Risky".
0:04:51 > 0:04:56So, that's our teams. Now, who are their experts?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Tiny cup. Ha-ha! Big expert.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01The Red team have the mighty Thomas Plant.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03The Blues won't need the brolly today, though.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05But they will need Claire Rawle.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12- I feel like we're the Three Amigos. - Yeah.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Because we're all come from farming stock.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17My dad's a farmer, you two are farmers.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Are you two excited? - Oh, very excited.
0:05:22 > 0:05:24What are you going to go for today, do you think?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27I really love really handmade, beautiful craftsmanship.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30I'm really keen for quite interesting, like maybe quite fun.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33- Quirky items.- Quirky items. - Anything that stands out, isn't it?
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- Anything, anything. - Oh, OK. She's easy, then.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41I'm going to shove you off and let you go, like I'm herding sheep.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- TIM:- Quirky, fun and up for anything.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47The perfect ingredients for a classic Bargain Hunt.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51Remember, I don't want to be doing the choosing for you. OK, boys?
0:05:51 > 0:05:54- OK, yeah.- Go on! - Right.- Let's have a look.- Go on.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- TIM:- TP is definitely shepherding his team.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59HE WHISTLES
0:05:59 > 0:06:00- THOMAS:- Come behind!
0:06:00 > 0:06:02- CLAIRE:- Don't worry. I shan't force you into buying dinky toys.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- SHONA: I quite like... We've both got two boys each.- Right!
0:06:05 > 0:06:08- ADELE:- Tractors are a special favourite of my little boy.- Right.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10- Rufus is really into spacemen and starships.- OK.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- ADELE:- Do they tend to sell?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15There's a very, very good market for these,
0:06:15 > 0:06:18especially once you get into film memorabilia, "Batman", "Man from U.N.C.L.E."
0:06:18 > 0:06:21I like the chickens. Is there chickens there?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23No. They're just ponies.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25There's a couple that look like...
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I think you must be able to train chickens at some point.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- It's a different horse.- Thank you. - Thank you.- Thanks very much.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33So, shall we pop down here? This looks interesting.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- TIM:- Struth! All I can say is they must have very interesting chickens in New Zealand.
0:06:37 > 0:06:42- THOMAS:- Do you know anything about antiques?- Not a thing. No.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- TIM:- Well, you'll do just fine, then, fellas.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- THOMAS:- Do you know what this is? - BOTH: No.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- What if I did that? - Oh, is it off of a sword?
0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Yeah.- It's a sword handle? - It's a Japanese sword handle.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- It's called a "tsuba".- I like that.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- £59 you've got on that.- Right.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00- MAN:- It could be £40, to be honest.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01- "Could be £40."- "Could be £40."
0:07:01 > 0:07:04- So, that's "Could be £40."- Yeah.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07So, for your... And do you know what sword it would have gone on?
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- What's it called? - A Samurai?- Samurai.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12But Samurai is a race of people, a race of warriors.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Warriors!- Like you two.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16HE LAUGHS
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Warriors of the field. Yeah. - Warriors of the field.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- So, that's...that's quite nice. - Yeah.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23This is Meiji period.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25So, it's dating from
0:07:25 > 0:07:27the 20th century.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- So, that's something you can think about.- Yeah.- Yeah.- In your first five minutes of shopping.
0:07:31 > 0:07:32Yeah, it's nice.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- CLAIRE: What sort of price are the enamel brooches there? - MAN: Which one?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Um, with the leaves, the little white leaves.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44- David Andersen.- Yeah. - That could be £50.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- ADELE:- Oh, they're quite lovely.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Very, very typically Scandinavian design.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53And there are quite a few of them that worked in these lovely enamels and silver.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56So, I think it's actually very wearable today.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59It's got very keen lines, it's in good condition as well.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02It's really important there's no damage to any of the enamel.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05- And I think it's charming. - ADELE:- I do like that.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- So, the white one? - The David Andersen's £50.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Right. Can we move down a bit on that one?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13- £49.- Ohhhh!
0:08:13 > 0:08:15You're a hard man.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17CLAIRE LAUGHS
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- ADELE:- What about down a bit more?
0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Go on. - I'll make it £42.50, yeah?
0:08:21 > 0:08:23- Ooh!- There you go.
0:08:23 > 0:08:28Can we do 50 pences? Can't we do £42, at all, please?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30- Every penny helps.- 42 quid.
0:08:30 > 0:08:31Are we buying what we like?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- I think we go a bit with what we like.- Well, it has to be an instinct.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- Do you like it?- I love it.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38- You like it as well?- Yeah.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- Oh, please. Thank you. - Thank you so much.
0:08:41 > 0:08:42Good work.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43- TIM:- Great bargaining, Blues.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Cracked open the purse nice and early.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Excellent, well done. Hey, within ten minutes, as well!
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Great. Very positive. So, that's one down, two to go.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- So, on that high note, shall we head off in this direction?- Let's go. - Yeah.- Yeah, good.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01What do you...what do you feel like buying?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- You said, you know, "unusual". - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Yeah, anything really unusual.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09- Something that grabs you. You want something that grabs you.- Yeah.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- TIM:- Yeah. Olly's spotted something.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- THOMAS:- What are you saying? Don't be afraid to pick it up. It's fine.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16- I'm looking at that one.- Yeah?
0:09:16 > 0:09:18What's the other bottle, over there?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Look at that. So, you've got two bottles there.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24A gin bottle.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- We both like gin.- Yeah.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- You both like gin?- We both like quite a lot of gin, yes.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31I love old bottles.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33They are widely collected.
0:09:33 > 0:09:35- The writing on it's nice, isn't it? - It is.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Gin was the drink of choice
0:09:39 > 0:09:41in the 19th century.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Who do you think would have drunk gin in the 19th century?
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Aristocracy?
0:09:45 > 0:09:47- No.- No? Normals.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51Normals. Normals, in the 18th and 19th century.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- And do you know where the thing comes from - "an old soak".- No.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58If you can't afford to buy gin to drink,
0:09:58 > 0:10:01they used to soak it in rags and used to suck the rag.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03I've been on a few nights out like that.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- THEY LAUGH - Trevor!
0:10:06 > 0:10:09So, I think those are two rather good bottles, don't you?
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- So, do you want to go for both or just the one? - What would you say on that?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I always kind of have more in a lot than less.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- Yes.- Do you think they'll do well as a pair?- Well, people, you know...
0:10:19 > 0:10:22It attracts more people.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24So, the two bottles - what could they be?
0:10:24 > 0:10:26- There's no price on... That one's £18.- Yeah.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30- £30.- £30?- £30?
0:10:30 > 0:10:31What do you think, lads?
0:10:31 > 0:10:35- I reckon £30's quite good, actually. - 30 quid.- £25, you've got a deal.
0:10:35 > 0:10:36- Go on.- Yeah?
0:10:36 > 0:10:39- Thank you.- Thank you. - Thank you very much.- Thanks.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42- Now, are you happy with that? - I'm very happy with that.- Yeah.
0:10:42 > 0:10:45- TIM:- Everyone's happy, then. Must be the effect of the gin.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Now, our Blue belles
0:10:47 > 0:10:49have a budding interest in this rose bowl.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51What about that - the nice, vibrant colour?
0:10:51 > 0:10:55- "Bohemian Art Deco".- Yeah. It's just not a great seller at all.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59- TIM:- OK, so, the boho's a real no-no.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Come on, let's move on.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- HE STRAINS OLIVER:- Go on!
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Hey, it IS heavy.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08- Well, you could certainly work out with that.- Yeah, that's it.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13You want something rare? Something unusual?
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- CLAIRE:- We're always looking for something rare and unusual.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18- There's something very unusual here. - Oh, OK.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Oh, my God. That's, yeah, lethal. - You need to guess what it is, though.- Yeah. Yeah.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24- OK, well, I know it's something to do with thatching.- Oh, right.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26I've seen them before. So, you'd...
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Cos it looks really dangerous.
0:11:29 > 0:11:30Well, yeah, lethal, isn't it?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32- It's a thatching needle.- Yeah.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Thatchers would use it - the cord would run through here,
0:11:35 > 0:11:38through the thatch, and then, as he pushes it down,
0:11:38 > 0:11:41draws back the thatch and just works his way along the ridge.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- Oh, OK. I am sort of strangely attracted to that.- It looks...
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- But it's up to you.- It looks actually quite appealing in a...killer way.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50THEY LAUGH
0:11:50 > 0:11:52SHONA: How much is that, may I ask?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Um, I've got £38 on it.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- You need it special, don't you? - As special as you can do.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Bargain, bargain.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Real special for you - £25.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06- £25. What do you think?- £25.
0:12:06 > 0:12:11- Would it make much?- I was going to say £30, but £25. - Ooh. You're a charmer.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13- £25.- Can I hold it for the weight of it?
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Oh! Take cover, take cover!
0:12:16 > 0:12:19- Oh, it's quite a weight, actually. - CLAIRE:- Yeah.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23It's lovely how it's actually been used. It's something that's been useful.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27- And now there's something quite appealing about it. - Yeah.- Let's do it.- Can we do it?
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- I trust this man. I think we do it. - Yeah! Thank you so much.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- Yep.- Excellent.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35MAN: Thank you very much.
0:12:35 > 0:12:36- Ahh!- Ooh! Careful!
0:12:36 > 0:12:41- TIM:- Great work, team. That's two items stitched up in less than 30 minutes.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44I tell you what - they are, um, great.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48They've got different ideas about what they want, but they...
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Once they see something they like, they're really clear and decisive.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54- 20 minutes, two items! - Bam!- Whoa! What are we going to do?
0:12:54 > 0:12:56Let's spend loads of money!
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- I think we need to do a big, decent amount now.- Big, yeah.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- A nice big amount of money on something...big, maybe? - We'll see.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- TIM:- Well, I suppose that's unity of sorts.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09But have the Reds corralled their second item yet?
0:13:09 > 0:13:11- What about that horn? - What's that, there?
0:13:11 > 0:13:14- THOMAS:- A bit of a cow horn? What do you like about that?
0:13:14 > 0:13:17It's got a connection to us, really, hasn't it? It's obviously a horn off a cow.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20- We farm cattle. - Do you still de-horn cows?
0:13:20 > 0:13:22- Yeah.- We do, yeah.- Yep?
0:13:22 > 0:13:24Why do you de-horn cows?
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Well, horns get huge
0:13:26 > 0:13:28and it can be quite dangerous, handling them.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32- And with each other as well? - Yeah, and then they get them stuck places, which is always a pain.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34- OLIVER:- What do you think about it?
0:13:34 > 0:13:37- Um... Do you know what it is?- No.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Ah! Right.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44- Snuff. We don't know the price of this, though, do we?- No.- No.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47- How much is it?- It's £500. - £500. See? There you are.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51- Out of your price range. - Very out of our price range. - A bit too nice for us.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Thank you, very much.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56- TIM:- Ha-ha! For that price, I'd STEER clear of that.
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- Find something big and bold and something you guys are going to think, "God! What?"- Yeah.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02"That's amazing."
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Oh! What about this, Shona?
0:14:06 > 0:14:08This is really... Look, chunky.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10It's a nice little thing, isn't it?
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- ADELE:- Compartments. - CLAIRE:- Nicely strapped. It's a good, sturdy chest.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16- Do they do well at auction?- Yeah. Funnily enough, they do.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21- Cos, I suppose...- People like them either to store stuff or just use them as coffee tables.
0:14:21 > 0:14:22- Actually, yeah.- Practical.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26But, yeah, no, old chests, old blanket boxes and things.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- It's quite nice.- It's quite trendy at the moment.- Right, yeah.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32- So, you know, unless you want to. - SHONA: There's no harm in asking. - Yeah.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35- Hi. Sorry to interrupt you.- You'll want to know what my best price is.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Absolutely. And we mean the bottom price.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- £160 is the best I can do. - £160?- Yes.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- Right.- Well, we can think about it.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- Yes. Yeah, we've got time. - We love it. Yeah, yeah.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49- Have a think about it. - It's a great item.- Thank you.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53- TIM:- And I thought you were going to buy big for your third item.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54Still time, though.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- I've seen something on that stand which is right up your strata. - Yep. I can see that.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00- Can you see that?- I think I've spotted it.- I think...
0:15:00 > 0:15:03- Can we see, A, if we can afford to buy it?- Yeah.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- And, B, what it is? Yeah?- Yes. - Yeah.- Let's go.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- I like this. - Yeah, I thought you'd like that.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17- What is this - a fertility piece? - More or less.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20It's called a Makonde belly mask.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Makonde are a Central African tribe - Ivory Coast.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26It's worn by young men...as well,
0:15:26 > 0:15:29in conjunction with a female face mask,
0:15:29 > 0:15:30and they do a dance.
0:15:30 > 0:15:34- So they can get their other half pregnant?- Well, basically, yeah.- Ah.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37- Those sort of connotations. - And how old is this?
0:15:37 > 0:15:39That one is about 1920s, 1930s.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43- It's a very nice piece.- Was it made for the tourist market?- No.
0:15:43 > 0:15:44No, I don't think so. Not this one.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- And how much is it?- £320.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Oh, God... What's the best?
0:15:50 > 0:15:52- That is about it... - Is that it, is it?
0:15:52 > 0:15:56Uh, well, the best would be around about, uh, say, £275.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59I can't go any less than that. It's a fairly early piece.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Not for the tourist market.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05- You've got nice...good tribal marking.- Yeah, I like that marking. There.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08- If we could do a deal on this, if you like it...- Yes.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11..work a bit more on that price, if you wouldn't mind,
0:16:11 > 0:16:15that means it leaves us with a little bit, and there'd be an incy-wincy bit for me.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17MAN: Let me have a word with my partner, OK?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- I think it's a really interesting... - It's interesting, yeah.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24- TIM:- Let's take a pregnant pause from the Red's belly mask
0:16:24 > 0:16:26to see how the Blue team are cracking on.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Hi, Claire. Have you seen anything interesting?
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Oh, my... Look how cute that red one is!
0:16:32 > 0:16:34It's like a nut shape.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37- Yeah.- WOMAN:- It's a type of nut, but I don't know what kind.- Right.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41It's so pretty. The little bottles.
0:16:42 > 0:16:44- Oh, I quite like that. - Oh, it's sweet...
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- Oh!- Of course we quite like that cos it's quite a nice price
0:16:47 > 0:16:48- It's very expensive.- Very expensive.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51- Always choose the most expensive. - So, we'll hand it back.
0:16:51 > 0:16:52We obviously have very good taste.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56- TIM:- Now, back to our expectant Reds.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- MAN:- I've just had a word with my partner. We're at £255.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01£255.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04So, you buy it at £255. You can't do it at £250?
0:17:04 > 0:17:06- £250?- Yeah.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08Oh, well, I can mark it down another £5.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11So, £250. So, that means we've spent £275.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14- That means, after that, there's £25 left.- Yeah.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17So we have to buy something for 20 quid or something, which is fine.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20- Yeah.- Do you want to do it? - I'm happy with that. - We are going to beat the girls.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- Cos that is called taking a risk. - Yeah. On... Yeah.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28- £250, sir.- Yep.- Thank you. - No problem.- Thank you very much.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Thank you. Let's not go and spend a great deal of money now.- No.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- TIM:- Deep breaths, lads.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- CLAIRE:- That's nice, isn't it? Really lovely.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40And the wine-holder. That's pretty good.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44Yeah, they've really started selling well, those sort of wine boxes.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- Even very plain ones, as long as they've got lettering on them.- Mm.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- SHONA: Does it come with the wine? - CLAIRE: It's all empty.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52THEY LAUGH
0:17:52 > 0:17:54It's here, it's here.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56- OK.- That's... Well, that's quite...
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- There's one down here as well. - Oh, yeah.- Is that bigger?
0:17:59 > 0:18:01What kind of age would that be?
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Turn of the century? 1920s?
0:18:03 > 0:18:06- Does it say?- I don't know. Quite nice. We'll think about them.- Yeah.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10- TIM:- OK, teams, best start thinking about that last purchase,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12cos you're in the last 15 minutes.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14What are we going to do?
0:18:14 > 0:18:17- We'll have to really pull something out of the bag. Cos we don't have much left.- That's it.
0:18:17 > 0:18:20I reckon there's some good stuff round here for 20 quid.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23- I reckon we'll find something. - Yeah, we'll find something mental.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Two farmers - fabulous boys. Very nice.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Um, they really wanted something unusual,
0:18:30 > 0:18:34and I believe they've got something I've never seen before.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39- ADELE:- What about this crazy fella up here?
0:18:39 > 0:18:43- They're a lovely colour.- Oh, they're nice...- They're beautiful.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Yeah, yeah, actually. Beautiful again.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51It's amazing how quickly this last few minutes will disappear.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53So, I think we need to focus.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56I think the mind is elsewhere. Don't you?
0:18:56 > 0:18:59- I think I'm still with the wood. - Do you know what? I think I am as well.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02- You're with the wood? Then we go back to the wood.- Let's do it. - Excellent.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- TIM:- Well done, Claire - reining your team in to perfection.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07Your turn, Thomas.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10- OLIVER: The jam things... - TREVOR: Oh, yeah! I forgot them. - Have you found anything?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13- Uh, no.- Boringly.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15No, I was. I quite like...
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Where are the coaches? Over there? Let's have a look. Let's have look.
0:19:18 > 0:19:23I quite fancy you choosing a coaching lamp. Which one did you like?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26That's railway as well, isn't it? Or a coach? Yeah, traction engine lamp.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30- That's £44.- Oh. - A bit out of our budget.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32You get different styles, don't you?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34- Is that a door knocker? - I don't know.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Um, I don't know.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Is that a door knocker?
0:19:40 > 0:19:42I think it's for...webbing.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Tightening webbing.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- Like a ratchet. - A ratchet. I quite like that.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50- How much is that, sir?- £23
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- That would have gone onto maybe a flatbed.- Yeah.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56And that would have been looped onto the bronze holder.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59And then your webbing would have gone on and you would have clicked it all in.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- We could use that on the farm. - Yeah, that's it.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03Is that your very best?
0:20:05 > 0:20:06- MAN:- £18.- £18.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10We're simple folk. We can only do zeroes and fives.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12So, it's either going to be £10 or £15.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14- All right, £15.- £15?
0:20:14 > 0:20:15THEY LAUGH
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- Oh, I do.- You like it even more, don't you?- I do.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Will that be your third and final?
0:20:20 > 0:20:23- I think we'd be silly not to go for it.- I think you would.- Silly? Right.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Cos I quite like your passion towards it.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28- I think you've got a sale, sir. - Lovely.- Thank you.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30- Three items.- There we go.- Boom.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32- TIM:- Hey, great work, chaps.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35And certainly talking the talk.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38So, now, you have to sort of focus.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39- TIM:- Exactly that!
0:20:39 > 0:20:41I think I prefer the top one because it's not as wide.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44- And with the wording on it, does that...?- Yeah, no, that's popular.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46That doesn't take away from it at all.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48It's French, you know? It's exotic.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- SHONA: Bonjour.- So...
0:20:51 > 0:20:55- Why don't we see what we can get it for?- Yeah. Yeah, definitely, yeah.
0:20:55 > 0:21:00- OK, we need to negotiate.- With that lady.- So, we need our lovely lady to come and negotiate with us.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02No.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04So...
0:21:04 > 0:21:08- I think we'd take this one, out of the two.- Yeah, that's the best shape.
0:21:08 > 0:21:13What is...? I mean, what's the bestest deal that will help us at auction day, you could do us?
0:21:13 > 0:21:15Well, I can't do it for less than £40.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18- That sounds quite good to me.- Yep. - 40 quid?- Yep.- Lovely.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21- £40? Finish. Shake on the deal, then.- Thanks. I love your stall.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25- Thank you so much.- I love your stall too.- Brilliant. Well done, guys.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29So, I think that was an excellent purchase. I think they all are.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30BOTH: Yay!
0:21:30 > 0:21:32- TIM:- Stop pedalling, teams.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Time's up. Let's check out what the Red team bought, eh?
0:21:35 > 0:21:40First up, they bought these corking gin bottles for £25.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Next, they had the stomach
0:21:43 > 0:21:45to pay £250
0:21:45 > 0:21:47for the African belly mask.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48Ooh-ah.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Last, the 19th-century webbing tool.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51£15 paid.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Excuse me for interrupting you,
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- but that was quite successful, wasn't it?- I think so.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Did a birdie tell me that you spent £290?
0:22:01 > 0:22:02- Yes.- It did. Yes.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06That is mature male expenditure.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Um, where's the £10 of leftover lolly?
0:22:08 > 0:22:12Got that, Trev. Thank you very much. Good.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14So, which is the favourite piece, for you?
0:22:14 > 0:22:18Oh, I really like... we've got that fertility...
0:22:18 > 0:22:21- Body suit.- The mask.- Really?
0:22:21 > 0:22:22- Everything, yeah.- OK.- I like that.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25- Mine's the same, actually.- Is it? - The body mask, yeah.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28- You farmers are all the same, aren't you?- Yeah, it's all about that.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30It's all reproduction and...
0:22:30 > 0:22:34..the earth's bounty and all that kind of stuff.
0:22:34 > 0:22:39- Anyway, after all of that, Tom, you're going to get a £10 note. - Oh, look at that.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Which is going to be difficult for you, I'd say.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45- Don't spend it all at once. - I won't spend it all at once. I'll try not to.
0:22:45 > 0:22:50- It's a couple of coffees and a cake, if you ask me.- Absolutely. - Anyway, good luck. Good luck, team.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Enjoy your little break. Meanwhile, we're going to check out what the Blue team bought.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56There's no way they were going to pass up
0:22:56 > 0:22:59a Scandinavian silver and white enamel brooch for £42.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03Their second buy was sewn up with the thatcher's needle,
0:23:03 > 0:23:05bought for £25.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08And, finally, they returned to the French wine crate
0:23:08 > 0:23:11for a magnifique £40.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13BOTH: Yay!
0:23:13 > 0:23:17Three girls together, eh? This is a magical combination.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19- Did you have a good time, Shona? - Fantastic time.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22- Good for you, Adele, was it? Absolutely loved it.- Brilliant.
0:23:22 > 0:23:23I've never seen such lovely smiles!
0:23:23 > 0:23:29- Now, Shona, which is your favourite piece?- The thatching tool.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31Has it an antipodean connection, by any chance?
0:23:31 > 0:23:35- No, I just thought it was really interesting and quite interesting to hold. Yeah.- Appealed to you.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39- Yeah.- Perfect. That's what a personal favourite ought to be. What about you, Adele?
0:23:39 > 0:23:41Um, for the good, old wine carrier.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43The ten bottles of wine in, nice and safe.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46That's your favourite? And is that going to bring the biggest profit?
0:23:46 > 0:23:50- I think the thatching... hatching tool might.- Might it?
0:23:50 > 0:23:51I think the box of wine will.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53THEY LAUGH
0:23:53 > 0:23:56You're clearly quite close in your predictions. How much did you spend?
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- £107.- I can't believe that!
0:23:58 > 0:24:00- I know.- It's such a miserable amount, isn't it?
0:24:00 > 0:24:02- We tried, we tried to do more. - Tried to do more?
0:24:02 > 0:24:06Anyway, I'd better have £193 of leftover lolly, please.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Thank you very much. £19... Cor, it's a lot, isn't it?
0:24:10 > 0:24:12But it means all the more for Rawle to spend.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Absolutely, yes, I can go forth now and, um...
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Multiply!
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Indeed. Well, one hopes so.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23Anyway, that's marvellous. Have a nice cup of tea. And good luck, Claire.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27Meanwhile, I'm going to flutter off and show you something rather special.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34You can't beat a nice China teapot
0:24:34 > 0:24:36for brewing a lovely cup of tea.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39But in a drawing-room situation,
0:24:39 > 0:24:42what do you do with a red-hot teapot like this?
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Well, what you should do is to put it...
0:24:45 > 0:24:48..on a teapot stand, like that.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52Victorian and Edwardian interiors
0:24:52 > 0:24:54were stuffed with teapot stands.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Now, this particular teapot stand is special.
0:24:58 > 0:25:02For a kick-off, the surface is incredibly decorative, isn't it?
0:25:02 > 0:25:08What we've got here are a series of Brazilian butterfly wings
0:25:08 > 0:25:12which have been delicately arranged in a pattern
0:25:12 > 0:25:15and then frozen underneath the glass.
0:25:15 > 0:25:19But the shimmering exuberance
0:25:19 > 0:25:21is breathtaking.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24If I turn it round, you can see the manufacturer's stamp.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27It says "Les Papillons de Peguy",
0:25:27 > 0:25:31which is "The Butterflies de Peguy",
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Peguy being the manufacturing firm,
0:25:34 > 0:25:36and stamped "Paris".
0:25:36 > 0:25:40And I guess this was done in about 1930.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42All very interesting.
0:25:42 > 0:25:46But the valuable part of this particular teapot stand
0:25:46 > 0:25:49is not the butterfly decoration,
0:25:49 > 0:25:51but the stand itself.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55On the face of it, you'd walk by it in an antique centre.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58It seems to be rather dull, rusty iron.
0:25:58 > 0:26:01And it is, indeed, made of wrought iron.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06But this textured and ridged surface
0:26:06 > 0:26:12is peculiar to one particular, famous French ironworker,
0:26:12 > 0:26:14who's called Edgar Brandt.
0:26:14 > 0:26:19And Edgar Brandt, who came from a family of metalworkers,
0:26:19 > 0:26:23he designed and made decorative objects to go into homes
0:26:23 > 0:26:26in the 1920s and 1930s.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30His larger pieces can make phenomenal amounts of money.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Peer tables and fire screens
0:26:33 > 0:26:37that realise more than 100,000 -
0:26:37 > 0:26:40huge amounts of money for wrought iron.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43This particular piece,
0:26:43 > 0:26:45with its ridged frame
0:26:45 > 0:26:48and these stylised flower heads,
0:26:48 > 0:26:52dates from about 1930 to 1935
0:26:52 > 0:26:54and is a desirable piece.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55What would it cost you?
0:26:55 > 0:26:58It could be yours, in an antiques fair,
0:26:58 > 0:27:00for £95.
0:27:00 > 0:27:02What might it bring?
0:27:02 > 0:27:07Well, in a specialist decorative art sale, hot to trot for Edgar Brandt,
0:27:07 > 0:27:10perhaps £400 to £600.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Whilst fashionable in the 1930s,
0:27:15 > 0:27:17the use of butterflies for decoration today
0:27:17 > 0:27:20is...not just terribly PC.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Well, we've trotted from the racecourse
0:27:31 > 0:27:33all the way to West Sussex,
0:27:33 > 0:27:36to Wisborough Green, to Bellmans' saleroom,
0:27:36 > 0:27:38to be with the champion jockey of all jockeys -
0:27:38 > 0:27:40ha-ha-ha - Jonathan Pratt.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43- Hi, JP.- Good morning, Tim. - Very nice to be here.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47Now, first up for the Reds are the two glass bottles.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49So, JP, out of the two bottles, which is the best?
0:27:49 > 0:27:54Uh, the one on the left - this little tapering, square-bodied Hoytema gin bottle,
0:27:54 > 0:27:57um, seems to be more collectable.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59- They have a sort of finite value, of course.- Mm-hm.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03The one on the right here is more of a traditional shape, but it is handmade.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06- I don't know, I quite like bottles, in that respect.- Yeah.
0:28:06 > 0:28:12- So, how much?- Uh, £40 to £60. - That is marvellous. £25 is all they paid for the two.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14So, that's a good leg-up to start off with.
0:28:14 > 0:28:20Um, talking about a leg-up, how do you rate this pregnant lady's mask?
0:28:20 > 0:28:22This type of belly mask
0:28:22 > 0:28:26is very typically Makonde tribe, in Africa.
0:28:26 > 0:28:27Um, and it's this sort of shape
0:28:27 > 0:28:29and this vertical band carved down the centre.
0:28:29 > 0:28:32But you've got to be very careful. They're producing these all the time.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35They still make them today and sell them at the sides of the road,
0:28:35 > 0:28:38so there could be a lot of confusion in this market.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40But the wood's very dry and nice and seasoned,
0:28:40 > 0:28:42so that it looks right.
0:28:42 > 0:28:44- Yeah.- So, I think it has got some age.
0:28:44 > 0:28:48So, we come to the million-dollar question now. How's it going to do?
0:28:48 > 0:28:52We have sold lots of these sorts of things, and we've done terribly well with them in the past.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57I've put an estimate of £80 to £120 on the mask.
0:28:57 > 0:28:58- Have you?- Mm-hm.
0:28:58 > 0:29:02- Well, that's not good enough. - Is it not good enough?- No.
0:29:02 > 0:29:07The Epsom price for the pregnant mask jobbie is £250.
0:29:07 > 0:29:09Well, it's a hard thing to price.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12I think that we're going to see a lot of interest in it.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14- So, it's a bit of a tempting estimate.- Yes.- Lovely.
0:29:14 > 0:29:18Anyway, their last item is this bronze instrument.
0:29:18 > 0:29:22I believe it's a webbing tool. And webbing for furniture, I believe.
0:29:22 > 0:29:26- You know where you have the seats and maybe a bit of cushion on top. - An upholsterer's tool?- Yeah.
0:29:26 > 0:29:30So, upholsterer's tool. Very nice. And, um, what's it worth?
0:29:30 > 0:29:32- £20 to £30.- OK, £15 paid.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36- So, on the face of it, they've done incredibly well.- They have.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39But if this African mask jobbie doesn't do so well,
0:29:39 > 0:29:42they could be completely torpedoed,
0:29:42 > 0:29:46in which case, they'll need that bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49OK, you lovely lads. You spent £290. I'm so proud of you.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52You gave Thomas Plant £10, which is a challenge.
0:29:52 > 0:29:53Thomas, what did you spend the £10 on?
0:29:53 > 0:29:56Well, boys, I continued our theme...
0:29:56 > 0:29:58Wow!
0:29:58 > 0:30:00Hey! Look at that.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02- Look at that.- TREVOR: Look at that! - So... You like that, don't you?
0:30:02 > 0:30:06- Trevor! - Carries the theme, there.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Carrying on the theme of the belly mask,
0:30:09 > 0:30:12I thought I'd get another fertility figure here
0:30:12 > 0:30:15of an African woman -
0:30:15 > 0:30:17uh, probably Kenyan or something -
0:30:17 > 0:30:19but I would say 1950s.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21So, it is airport tribal.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24- I don't think it's, um...- Right. - I don't think it's...
0:30:24 > 0:30:25- Departure lounge.- Yeah.
0:30:25 > 0:30:31I don't think it is actually taken from a tribe and robbed them of their culture, no.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33Did you blow the whole lot over her?
0:30:33 > 0:30:36- I did, yeah. I blew everything. - Oh...
0:30:36 > 0:30:38- Would that be £10?- £10. £10!
0:30:38 > 0:30:41- Really?- Well, you haven't asked me a question.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43How much do you think it will make?
0:30:43 > 0:30:46- It's going to double its money. - I'm happy with that. - Yeah, I'm happy with it.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50- Absolutely. A couple of quid would be nice, wouldn't it?- Very nice. - Perfect.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Anyway, there we go. You don't pick it till the end of the day, if you need to.
0:30:53 > 0:30:56But right now, for the audience at home,
0:30:56 > 0:31:00let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Tom's fertility figure.
0:31:00 > 0:31:02OK, JP, there's a bit of a theme going on here.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04There is. Thomas's...
0:31:04 > 0:31:07This is what I was alluding to when I was talking about the piece on the right there.
0:31:07 > 0:31:10This is the sort of thing you might pick up at the side of the road.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13I think this is a more modern carving.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15- Is that called airport art? - It's more of a tourist thing.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18Anyway, there we go. Takes you all sorts of place. So, how much?
0:31:18 > 0:31:21- £20 to £40.- OK, £10 paid.- OK.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23So, I think Thomas has done good with that.
0:31:23 > 0:31:27- And this little theme is amusing, isn't it?- I rather like that bunch.
0:31:27 > 0:31:28You like that group? OK, fine.
0:31:28 > 0:31:31That's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33Let's hope you like this bunch too.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Cos we go from something wee, wee, wee - Scandinavian -
0:31:36 > 0:31:39to something big, big, big - French.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42- So, how do you rate the brooch?- It's kind of the fashion at the moment.
0:31:42 > 0:31:44It's silver and enamel, Scandinavian.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47- Mr Andersen?- Yeah.
0:31:47 > 0:31:48- He's a known name.- Mm.
0:31:48 > 0:31:51- Um, but he's not, you know... He's not your Jensen.- No.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54It's in nice condition. I can't really say much more.
0:31:54 > 0:31:59- Um, £30 to £50.- OK, £42 paid. So, they're in the frame for that.- OK.
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Now, we don't see very many of these.
0:32:01 > 0:32:03- Apparently a thatcher's needle. - Yeah.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05- But I'm not quite sure how it's used.- No, I...
0:32:05 > 0:32:08I did try... I tried to work out...
0:32:08 > 0:32:11Um, you can find these things available on the internet.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14And in the country. People like a little bit of, um...
0:32:14 > 0:32:17- You know, they like oat forks and, you know, shovels.- Exactly.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19It's a bit of a kind of talking point, isn't it,
0:32:19 > 0:32:22around your fireplace, your open fire.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- Um, OK, so, what's the estimate? - £40 to £60.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28£25 paid. So, that's not too bad.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30- Now we've got the crate.- Mm.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33Which looks like a lot of nailed up bits to me.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36It's kind of fashionable, isn't it? This sort of, you know...
0:32:36 > 0:32:40Well, it's meant to be sort of like the, uh...in the kitchen, put your wine in it and all that.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44- But I don't think this has very much age. That's the problem. - How much?- Um...
0:32:44 > 0:32:46£20 to £30. Someone might pay more. Who knows?
0:32:46 > 0:32:48- £40, they paid, actually. £40. - They might pay less.
0:32:48 > 0:32:52- So, I think they paid top dollar for it.- Mm.- But you never know.
0:32:52 > 0:32:56- You might get there. You're very persuasive, as we know, on the rostrum.- I'll endeavour.
0:32:56 > 0:32:58Endeavour. Can't ask for more than that.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02Anyway, if you don't do too well, they might need their bonus buy. So, let's go and have a look at it!
0:33:02 > 0:33:06Shona, Adele, you economical two, you -
0:33:06 > 0:33:09you spent £107 only.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12And you gave to Claire £193.
0:33:12 > 0:33:14Claire Rawle, what did you spend it on?
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- Da-da!- BOTH: Yay!
0:33:17 > 0:33:19THEY LAUGH Yes!
0:33:19 > 0:33:20We secretly hoped.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24I know, I know. I did rather get that feeling.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26- So, I did go back and I... - How much did you get it for?
0:33:26 > 0:33:28- £170.- OK.
0:33:28 > 0:33:30Which I'd hoped to get it for a bit less.
0:33:30 > 0:33:35But I still...it is the sort of thing that, I mean, I have been selling for sort of £200.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37We may not make a huge profit on that,
0:33:37 > 0:33:39but I hope, perhaps, we could make £10 or £15.
0:33:39 > 0:33:43- Yeah.- Great. Well, you've got the prediction. You're clearly in love with it.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47You knew it before. You re-encountered it.
0:33:47 > 0:33:48Everything is blissful.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51Why don't we, for the audience at home,
0:33:51 > 0:33:55find out whether the auctioneer is in love with it as much as our girls?
0:33:55 > 0:33:58So, well, that's a dirty great chest, isn't it?
0:33:58 > 0:34:02- You know, they make nice coffee tables.- And good for storage. - Absolutely, yeah.
0:34:02 > 0:34:06- It fits in with the modern taste of interiors at the moment. - Perfect. What's your estimate?
0:34:06 > 0:34:11- £70 to £100. - £170, Claire Rawle paid for that, as a bonus buy.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13That is risky, isn't it?
0:34:13 > 0:34:16- That's...I mean, if I can get to that, I'll be very pleased. - I bet you will.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Anyway, the team may not need to go for it.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22- But, anyway, are you taking the sale?- I am, indeed.
0:34:22 > 0:34:23Oh, we're in safe hands.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Now, Trevor, Oliver, how are you feeling?
0:34:31 > 0:34:35- Very good.- Anything you wish you hadn't bought, Oliver? - No, not at all.- Not at all.
0:34:35 > 0:34:40- You're...- I'm happy with everything. - They're all champions, aren't they? - Are they?- Well, I don't know.
0:34:40 > 0:34:41- You hope they are. - THEY LAUGH
0:34:41 > 0:34:43You're confident. That's the main thing.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46Now, first up are the two glass bottles, and here they come.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49JP: Start me £40 for this. £40, the two bottles?
0:34:49 > 0:34:52Surely, we have £40. Where's £40? £20, then?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54Get me off at £20.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57- No interest.- £10, then. There we are. Hands go up.
0:34:57 > 0:34:58£10 is bid. Where's £12?
0:34:58 > 0:35:01It's a maiden bid of £10. Any more at £10?
0:35:01 > 0:35:03Internet, come on in.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05- Fair warning. Selling for £10. £12, thank you.- Yes.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08- £15? TIM:- Oh, come on! - Now we're hotting up. £18?
0:35:08 > 0:35:11- WOMAN:- No!- "No," she says. £18 on the left.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13Any more at £18?
0:35:13 > 0:35:15Fair warning. I'm selling, then. Last chance. £18.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18- GAVEL BANGS - That's £18. How miserable.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21- I didn't like that.- £2 short of £20, which is minus £7.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23Still, there we go, chaps.
0:35:23 > 0:35:25- Now, the belly mask.- JP: Belly mask.
0:35:25 > 0:35:27Uh, Makonde tribe.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Uh, bids with me starting at £100.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31With me at £100 on the book.
0:35:31 > 0:35:34- At £100.- £100 on the book?
0:35:34 > 0:35:36At £100 I have. Looking for £10.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39£110. £120 against you.
0:35:39 > 0:35:44£130 with Lizzie on the telephone. At £130.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47At £130 - standing in the room at £130. Anyone else want to join in?
0:35:47 > 0:35:48Fair warning, everyone else?
0:35:48 > 0:35:51- It's going to be sold. TIM:- Uh-oh.
0:35:51 > 0:35:52It's a big risk.
0:35:52 > 0:35:54- All done at £130?- Oh, bad luck, lads.
0:35:54 > 0:35:59£130. You just gave birth to a pup.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Ha-ha-ha! £130, £230.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04- That's minus £120.- Oh, good.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06Now, the webbing tool.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09Starting off at £20 for it. £20, the webbing tool.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11Could be useful.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13So, bad luck.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15£10 here. £12.
0:36:15 > 0:36:19Come on! £12 is bid with the gentlemen at... £12.

0:37:30 > 0:37:34Now, listen, chaps, it could be a disastrous day for the Blues, right?
0:37:34 > 0:37:38- In which case, £117 could be a winning score.- You never know.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49What fun! What fun. Boys versus girls.
0:41:49 > 0:41:53So, boys, you started out very positively, yes?
0:41:53 > 0:41:56- Yeah.- You were definitely going to beat the girls.- Definitely.
0:41:56 > 0:42:01- Girls, you started out very positively. You were going to beat the boys.- Yes.

0:42:11 > 0:42:15- It all went wrong with that belly. - It did.- Belly jobbie.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18- She was a beauty, though. - She was a beauty, yes.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21Anyway, there we are. I suggest you stick to the farming in future.

0:42:22 > 0:42:24Good idea.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36Yes! Shona, you're pleased about that.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39There's your £8. You got very close to getting a golden gavel.
0:42:39 > 0:42:42Cos you got profits on two of your items,
0:42:42 > 0:42:46but slipped on the wretched brooch from Scandinavia.
0:42:46 > 0:42:50But you made a lovely profit on the bonus buy, so well done for that, Claire.
0:42:50 > 0:42:53Even though I thought the pine trunk was absolutely appalling.
