0:00:09 > 0:00:11We're in Newark-on-Trent today,
0:00:11 > 0:00:13a pretty little market town
0:00:13 > 0:00:16with a pretty large antiques fair.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18So, are you up for this?
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Hold on tight, set your stop watch for 60 minutes
0:00:21 > 0:00:23and let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:53 > 0:00:56So, just how difficult can it be
0:00:56 > 0:00:59to spend £300 in 60 minutes
0:00:59 > 0:01:01on three items to take away and sell at auction?
0:01:01 > 0:01:05Well, a lot more difficult than you might think,
0:01:05 > 0:01:09when there are over 2,000 stalls to choose from.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12So, here's a quick peek as to what's coming up.
0:01:14 > 0:01:18While the Reds embrace the spirit of the show,
0:01:18 > 0:01:21the Blues reveal their tactical nous.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23This guy has made a business plan.
0:01:26 > 0:01:31So, on the Red Team today, we have good friends Nicky and Gilly,
0:01:31 > 0:01:35and for the Blues we have father and son, Vikesh and Surendra.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Hello everyone. Lovely to see you.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Now, Nicky, you're one of those lucky people who has
0:01:40 > 0:01:43- a job that is actually also more like a hobby.- Yeah.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47I've always had a huge affinity for films, erm,
0:01:47 > 0:01:50and a few months ago, I started working at the local cinema.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54- The lovely thing is that the cinema prospers, doesn't it?- It does.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56It goes from strength to strength, which is really encouraging.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59But you like to collect a few movie-related things too.
0:01:59 > 0:02:00I do, yeah.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03My favourite film of all time is The Nightmare Before Christmas
0:02:03 > 0:02:04so anything you can think of.
0:02:04 > 0:02:08Slippers, bath robes, big banners, posters...
0:02:08 > 0:02:12- And then you collect hats.- Yes. - How many hats do you collect?
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Hats and bracelets over the years,
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- I've probably worn well over 500, that kind of thing.- Have you?
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- This is a tiny amount.- Yes.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23This is me kind of toning it down for the day.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- Now Gilly, you enjoy a bit of role-playing.- I do.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Tell us about that.
0:02:27 > 0:02:34I do what's called larping. And it stands for Live Action Role-play.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35We go as fantasy characters.
0:02:35 > 0:02:36We pick a character
0:02:36 > 0:02:40and we meet about four times a year
0:02:40 > 0:02:43for a weekend and we all camp out.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45And we basically do battle
0:02:45 > 0:02:48and pretend to be somebody else for the weekend.
0:02:48 > 0:02:49Well that's rather lovely, isn't it?
0:02:49 > 0:02:52And what sort of things have you pretended to be?
0:02:52 > 0:02:58Erm, I've been a squirrel called Nutkins. Oh, yes.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00And do you go and sit under a tree?
0:03:02 > 0:03:06I was actually a battling squirrel, so I did actually fight.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Against another squirrel? - No, against trolls and orcs.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Oh, trolls and orcs. Is that a good competition?
0:03:12 > 0:03:14- Well, it depends on how big the orc is.- I suppose it is.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17If you had a rat-sized orc,
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- then a squirrel could do quite well then.- Yes, yes. Most definitely.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Now I know that there's some spells
0:03:22 > 0:03:26and potions in the larping world, but actually you get involved
0:03:26 > 0:03:30with a few spells and potions in your ordinary life, don't you?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Yes, I do. I've been a Pagan since I was about 18.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35When it comes to casting a spell or creating a potion that's
0:03:35 > 0:03:37going to enable you to win on Bargain Hunt today,
0:03:37 > 0:03:41- have you got anything up your sleeve?- Erm, maybe.- Maybe?
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Oh, very enigmatic. I'll have to give you £300 in a minute,
0:03:45 > 0:03:48and we'll see what happens. Anyway, good fun.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Vikesh, I understand that you're the driving force behind a new
0:03:51 > 0:03:55- online business, are you going to tell us about it?- Yeah, certainly.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58So it's an online business that I set up a couple of months ago, and it
0:03:58 > 0:04:02basically helps people find driving instructors when they learn to drive.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04- Right.- So that's it in a nutshell.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07So what are the special features of your site?
0:04:07 > 0:04:11Erm, the fact that you can use different filters to try and find
0:04:11 > 0:04:14a driving instructor, as everyone has different preferences.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Now, for a young man, you've got an interest in old time pieces.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21Yes, that's right. That comes from my grandad.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24When I was quite young, he showed me a pocket watch and I was quite taken
0:04:24 > 0:04:27back by it, and so then recently I've started collecting them.
0:04:27 > 0:04:28Just pocket watches, not wrist watches?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31No. There's just something about pocket watches.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34They're so simple on their own,
0:04:34 > 0:04:37and I just think they're pretty little items,
0:04:37 > 0:04:40- something different to a standard wrist watch.- Exactly.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- Now, Surendra, you work from home. - That's right.- Tell me about that.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Yeah, I'm a graphic designer.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48- And are you helping Vikesh with his business?- Definitely, yeah.
0:04:48 > 0:04:53I designed his logo for him, his stationery, uh, banners,
0:04:53 > 0:04:57- anything related to graphics.- Very nice too.- Anything to help him out.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00- It says here you enjoy your sports.- That's right.
0:05:00 > 0:05:06- I used to play cricket for a league team.- Did you?- Yeah.- Batsman?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08I used to be a wicketkeeper.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11I used to enjoy wicket keeping a lot, that was my main...
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Dangerous place, wicket keeping.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18It is but I used to enjoy it so much that I didn't want to give it up.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22So how confident are you two today? What are your tactics?
0:05:22 > 0:05:24I'd say we're pretty confident.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Our tactics are to go for three slightly low value
0:05:27 > 0:05:30items around £30/£40 mark to minimise the risk
0:05:30 > 0:05:33and obviously gain in on the margin and then leave our expert
0:05:33 > 0:05:37as much money as possible to go out there and do her thing.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40OK, well you really have got your tactics sorted out.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Don't tangle with this one in business, I can tell you.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Anyway, now, your money moment.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50£300 apiece, you know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!
0:05:50 > 0:05:53And very, very, very good luck.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Hmm, I quite fancy a spell.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02On the hunt for the Red Team today,
0:06:02 > 0:06:05it's the super sleuth, Chris Gower.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08There's a lot of faces
0:06:08 > 0:06:09around these fairs,
0:06:09 > 0:06:11but here's one of the finest,
0:06:11 > 0:06:13it's Anita Manning.
0:06:13 > 0:06:18Oh, the tarot girls. Gilly, what are they telling us?
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Well, they're telling us that we're going to find lots of shiny things!
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Yes, yes!
0:06:23 > 0:06:24And lots and lots of profit.
0:06:24 > 0:06:25Yes!
0:06:25 > 0:06:27And it's all going to be ours.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- Fantastic!- What are we waiting for?!
0:06:30 > 0:06:34- That's enough of this. Come on, let's go!- Let's go!
0:06:34 > 0:06:38The sky is blue, the sun is shining, it's blooming freezing.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41- It definitely is.- Very, very windy.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43We've got 300 squidjaroos to spend.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- That's right.- Dad here, son. Who's the boss?
0:06:46 > 0:06:50- That's got to be me, surely.- Aww! - It's the young blood in the team.
0:06:50 > 0:06:55- Oooh!- Glass and pretty.- Oh, yes! - It's very pink.- It is very.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- You like the blue?- I like the chalice.- I like the blue.- Right.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Can I tell you from an auction point of view,
0:07:01 > 0:07:05- there's not enough going with this. - Right.- It's got a bit of age.
0:07:05 > 0:07:10- It's probably '40s. Erm, pretty commonplace, really.- Yeah.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I think there's blingier and prettier things round the corner.
0:07:13 > 0:07:14Yeah.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16So, Blues, what's the plan?
0:07:17 > 0:07:19Well do you want to spend a lot of money,
0:07:19 > 0:07:21or do you want to spend a little?
0:07:21 > 0:07:25Well our strategy is to get three items of around the £30 to £50 mark,
0:07:25 > 0:07:29so low risk items therefore trying to maximise the profit on each item,
0:07:29 > 0:07:35and then leave a lot more money, £100 - £150 plus, for you...
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- He's worked out all the tactics. - He has, yeah.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- This guy has made a business plan. - Yep.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Well, the Blues are obviously aiming high, but what about the Reds?
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Do you think we'll find a bargain in there?- Anything for a pound?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58You could go smashing with that money.
0:07:58 > 0:07:59It's jewellery.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01I don't know, there's no jewellery about is there?
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Not yet. Not out here. - That'll be inside, yeah.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Mainly outside is furniture.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Anything that's weather-resistant, really.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13The reds are still on the move, but have the Blues moved at all yet?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17These are knife rests.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21Again, they are a functional item and they would
0:08:21 > 0:08:25lie on your table and you would place your serving knives on there.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Tell me about condition.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Erm, not the best condition,
0:08:28 > 0:08:32There's some slight blemishes on the metal.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34Do people still use these, Anita?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Uh-huh. I think they would.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39Dining in is a popular thing today
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- and its quite nice to posh-up your table.- Oh, right. OK.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44You know, to put posh things on it and these are sort of posh things.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46Quite unusual.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49- I don't know if it's the thing for your breakfast bar.- No, no.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54We're reaching the warm place here. I think we've just got to go in now.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57- I can feel the warmth. - Yes, I agree with that one.
0:08:57 > 0:09:03The Reds have sought refuge already. Not like those hardy Blues!
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Vikesh, Surendra, is there anything in here that you...?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10- Yeah, something that caught my eye were these buttons.- Uh-huh.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13What do you make of them? Is there a hallmark on there?
0:09:13 > 0:09:17Yes, we can see a hallmark here, and it's quite clear.
0:09:17 > 0:09:23Erm, they are probably late 19th - early 20th century.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25What I like to see with buttons is,
0:09:25 > 0:09:27I like to see them in a nice box and I like to see six of them.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31- Oh, I see. Yes.- But these are good ones, and they're heavy.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33- Uh-huh.- They're lovely. Tell me what you think of them.
0:09:33 > 0:09:38Erm, I think they're a nice little decorative piece. So yeah...
0:09:38 > 0:09:41It's got a nice design to it, doesn't it? I think.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43What sort of price would you be willing to pay for those?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Personally, going along with our strategy as well,
0:09:45 > 0:09:47I'd say probably around the £40/£45 mark.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50But obviously that's coming down
0:09:50 > 0:09:53- from the £60 marked price.- Yeah.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- You'd have to ask your dealer. - Well I've got £60 on them.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59- I could knock £10 off for you. - £10...
0:09:59 > 0:10:01I could knock them down to £50 for you.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Is there anything more you could possibly...?
0:10:03 > 0:10:06We were looking more around the £35/£40 region.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09I mean they're nice buttons, they're very old.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11They're 100 years old plus so I'd like to get...
0:10:11 > 0:10:15Can we meet in the middle and go £42.50?
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Go halves and I'll shake your hand?
0:10:17 > 0:10:18£42.50 then.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- We'll both shake your hand. - Fantastic, yep, that's great.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23- Thank you very much. - Thank you.- Very nice to meet you.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Well done, Blues, First deal done.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28And Vikesh has kept tight control of the...
0:10:28 > 0:10:30# Money... #
0:10:33 > 0:10:37- Have you seen that centrepiece there?- That's beautiful.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39- That looks lovely. - Absolutely beautiful.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43Well, let's have a look at this. Probably pewter. Is it?
0:10:43 > 0:10:47Probably pewter, continental, very stylish,
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Art Nouveau table centrepiece.
0:10:50 > 0:10:55- A bit of bling, glass, shiny, achingly chic, isn't it?- It is.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58- It's understandable why it's a centrepiece.- Good spot that, Chris.
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- That Mr Gower is known for his keen eyesight.- Let's have a look.- Hmm.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- Oh. Have you seen the price? - Yes. Thank you.
0:11:09 > 0:11:10I don't know about you girls,
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- but I like a lot of things on this stall, don't you?- Oh, yes.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18- Most definitely.- Definite potential. - There's a lighter.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Oh, that is pretty!- Isn't that nice? - Is that tortoiseshell?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23No, it's leather.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25- Oh, OK. - I'll tell you why I chose this.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27There are lots of collectors of lighters.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29They call it smoking memorabilia.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32This is in fantastic nick,
0:11:32 > 0:11:35and it's got the magic name under there, Dunhill.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38It's very collectable.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42- Is it old, or is it modern? - It's '30s.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45- And it's quite masculine for you two, isn't it really?- It is.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49- Very small. - It's blingy as well.- Yeah.
0:11:49 > 0:11:50It's sort of cocktail bar, isn't it?
0:11:50 > 0:11:54- Yeah, you could slip it into your purse.- It's £85.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58- Oh, well that won't do.- Let's see what his trade is, all right?- Yes.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00So, what is your trade on this, please?
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Uh, you could have it for £65.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07I will just liaise with my girls. £65.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Do you think it will make a profit, how much do you think?
0:12:09 > 0:12:13In a good sale, this would probably fetch over £100.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16- I just love the condition of it. - What did you say, £65?
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- I really like it.- It's got the pedigree, what can I say?
0:12:18 > 0:12:21We could do it for £55.
0:12:21 > 0:12:25- You are such a pusher.- Oooh!- Do you want to ask?- Yeah, you ask.- I will.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Hiya, did you say your best on that was £65?- £65, yes.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Could you do it for £55?
0:12:30 > 0:12:31I couldn't go down that low,
0:12:31 > 0:12:34but you're such a pretty girl you can have it for £60.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37- TIM:- Well, it looks like there's a spark between them.- £60.
0:12:37 > 0:12:43- What do we think, £60?- Yeah. Most definitely.- Fab.- Yes.- Got a deal.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46- Thank you very much. - Thank you!- Thank you very much!
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- We have our first item!- Well done!
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Cor, that's a weight off, Reds!
0:12:51 > 0:12:55You've got your first item, and that's £60 spent.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57It looks like the Blues have spotted some more silver.
0:12:57 > 0:13:03- Your wee snuff box, how much is that?- Er, about £40.- About £40?
0:13:03 > 0:13:07- What about the two napkin rings at the back.- Sorry, which napkin rings?
0:13:07 > 0:13:13- The ones just in the box.- How do they actually beat the shape to...
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- It would be a little silversmith's hammer.- Right.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20So it's quite fine work, they're working in quite a small scale.
0:13:20 > 0:13:25The pattern is made by the silversmith having beaten it
0:13:25 > 0:13:27out from underneath it.
0:13:27 > 0:13:28It's an embossed work,
0:13:28 > 0:13:34so there is some skill and artistry used in this, but I would like
0:13:34 > 0:13:38you to compare that with the napkin rings,
0:13:38 > 0:13:43because I think both of these have potential.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Tell me what you think first of all.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Well first of all, I like the initials on them,
0:13:48 > 0:13:51which are nice because it's personalised.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54I think the inside's a bit tarnished.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58Vikesh, the inside is in perfect condition,
0:13:58 > 0:14:04- it just needs a wee bit of polish. - Elbow grease.- Elbow grease!
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- That's you told, Vikesh. - These are nice items.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Tell me which one you like the best.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11With our strategy, I'd be more inclined to go for that.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14He's thinking strategy again. He's thinking business.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18Although I like the design pattern on it, I think that is
0:14:18 > 0:14:21- more classy...- This is the artistic side of this team.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24- I want to win this competition so... - Oh, right.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- OK, businessman, you go and see if you can get a deal.- Yep, definitely.
0:14:28 > 0:14:35What is your best price on these? They're at £39. What could you go to?
0:14:35 > 0:14:41- The cheekiest price you could possibly ask for or offer.- £30.- £30.
0:14:41 > 0:14:42What do you say to that, Anita?
0:14:42 > 0:14:45- I think you're being very, very lovely.- I'll agree with that.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46I'll shake your hand on that.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47Thank you very much.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Another deal sealed, Blues.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56And the Reds are playing catch-up again!
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Have a look at these, girls.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01You can't call them a pair, but they're in a set.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05Stowbridge, 1900, good quality.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08You can see that before you even touch it.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11The one thing is, this stopper isn't the original.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16You can either buy one, the big one, or buy the two.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19I think they're more appealing as a set rather than just the single.
0:15:19 > 0:15:26What would be your best? There's £150 there isn't there? For the two?
0:15:26 > 0:15:30- £125?- A liaise.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35- Girls, teams, if we can get them for £115...- Yeah...
0:15:35 > 0:15:37- Do you want to try your trick? You're good.- Well...
0:15:37 > 0:15:42- £115, I think you should get them. - Yes, go on, Vicki, go on.- OK.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47- You all right there? Could you do £115 on them?- No.- Not at all?- No.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50- I'll meet you halfway, £120. - £120. Absolute best?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- That's my very best offer, yes. - We like £120, don't we?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56- We do like £120, yes.- Fabulous, deal.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59So, the Reds have snapped up two decanters,
0:15:59 > 0:16:01but Anita's getting snapped wherever she goes.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13- You're my favourite one on the show. - Aw, thanks very much, thank you.
0:16:13 > 0:16:17Right, here we have something totally different,
0:16:17 > 0:16:20but absolutely lovely. It's a manicure set.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22We've got the nail buffer, the scissors,
0:16:22 > 0:16:24and the nail whatever-you-call-it.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Er, it's a cuticle shaper, Chris.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31- Silver, Birmingham, 1912. In a box.- Ah.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35And is it a matching set or has it been married together?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39I would suspect that the scissors don't match this.
0:16:40 > 0:16:45That's probably why it's less than £100.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47So what do you like about this?
0:16:47 > 0:16:48I like that it's feminine,
0:16:48 > 0:16:51because we've got the lighter which is quite gentlemanly,
0:16:51 > 0:16:55and then there's the decanter, that's quite masculine as well.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58And not only that, nails is a very big thing at the moment.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Everybody's training to do nails,
0:17:00 > 0:17:03- so it would be a nice gift set for a graduation or something.- Good point.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- I think we've made our decision, really.- Yeah.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- Yeah, I quite like that one.- Shall we find out what the trade price is?
0:17:08 > 0:17:09- Yes, please.- OK.
0:17:18 > 0:17:24- I think you'll like this. £70. - Oh, no way!- What do you think?
0:17:24 > 0:17:27- Is that good?- Yes, yes. - I like £70, yeah.- All agreed!- Yeah.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31- Yes, most definitely, all agreed. - We'll shake on that.- Fantastic.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35- Brilliant.- WE'LL shake on that! - We'll shake on it!- Yes, we will!
0:17:35 > 0:17:37We might even do even better!
0:17:37 > 0:17:40No need for formalities here, Reds.
0:17:42 > 0:17:47- Now, time is ticking for the Blues. What's Anita found?- Eh, guys?
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- I've found a couple of pocket watches for you.- Oh, brilliant.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Now, this one is a traditional type of watch.
0:17:56 > 0:18:01It's hallmarked silver, made in London in 1894,
0:18:01 > 0:18:04so it has a good age about it.
0:18:04 > 0:18:08Porcelain face, in good condition, and we've got this pretty little...
0:18:08 > 0:18:11It's almost like a fob watch,
0:18:11 > 0:18:16- which would have been attached to a ladies chain.- Oh, I see. OK.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19And this one has a silver face which is pretty,
0:18:19 > 0:18:24and it has this rather nice embossed back. Tell me which one you like.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Eh, I like both, to be perfectly honest.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30From an artistic point of view, which do you...
0:18:30 > 0:18:36Definitely this one. More sort of bizarre in patterns, strange.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Silly question, but do they both work?
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Erm, I don't know,
0:18:40 > 0:18:44and it won't tend to matter in an auction situation.
0:18:44 > 0:18:50Now this one's in at £70 and he can come down to £50 on that.
0:18:50 > 0:18:54- Oh, that's great. - And this one can come down to £45.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58- £45, and that one was at £57.- Yeah. So they're both not too bad.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59Fob watches are prettier,
0:18:59 > 0:19:04but I know that the big pocket watches are probably better sellers.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Another decision of head versus heart then, Blues.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09We've got four minutes left here.
0:19:09 > 0:19:13So your opinion would be...out of the two, which one would you get?
0:19:13 > 0:19:14If it was you.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16I like that one better,
0:19:16 > 0:19:20but I think that one is the one that we...it's not going to fly,
0:19:20 > 0:19:24but we've got the chance of making a couple of quid on them.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27I think we've got to make sure our items have to sell, it's a
0:19:27 > 0:19:31no-brainer in terms of economic sense, I think...I'd say this one?
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- I'd say that one, yeah.- Yeah? OK, yeah. We'll go for that one.
0:19:34 > 0:19:35Go for that?
0:19:35 > 0:19:37So, that's it.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39The deals are done and the money is spent.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Let's remind ourselves what the teams bought.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44The Reds had a flicker of excitement
0:19:44 > 0:19:45when they paid £60
0:19:45 > 0:19:47for their 1930s lighter.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49They raised a glass
0:19:49 > 0:19:51for the two decanters at £120.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53And then snipped £28
0:19:53 > 0:19:54from the ticket price,
0:19:54 > 0:19:57paying £70 for the manicure set.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00OK, N and G. How did it go for you?
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- Really well.- Is he a lovely man or is he a lovely man?
0:20:03 > 0:20:06- Oh, he's an extremely lovely man. - Now, how much did you girls spend?
0:20:06 > 0:20:11- We spent £250.- You are so mature, you two girls. That is a proper spend!
0:20:11 > 0:20:15- Who's got the £50 of leftover lolly then?- That'd be me.- Oh, would it?
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Oh, yes. Now, tell me, which is your favourite piece?
0:20:18 > 0:20:22Erm, I think my favourite would have to be the decanters.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26They're just so elegant, stylish, and they're just so aesthetically lovely.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28- And did they speak to you?- They did.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31They whispered to me "we're going to make you a profit".
0:20:31 > 0:20:34- So they said bye me.- Yeah. - And you love the decanters too?
0:20:34 > 0:20:35I actually like the lighter.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39I think it's a very nice piece, and it's in really good condition.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43- That's your favourite then?- Yes. - Is that going to bring the biggest profit?- Yes.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44Do you agree with that, Nicky?
0:20:44 > 0:20:47No, I would like to see the lighter bring the most profit,
0:20:47 > 0:20:49but I've got a feeling the manicure set will on the day.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52You're all over the shop, you are.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54I know. Me all over.
0:20:54 > 0:20:55There we go, £50.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59- Thank you, Tim.- Off you go with that. I wish you luck.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02They've got great taste, these girls, so it'll be quite easy.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04Well they've got you as an expert, don't they?
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Well, good luck, girls. Have a nice cup of tea and warm up.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought, eh?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13The Blues had a bright start with
0:21:13 > 0:21:15their silver buttons for £42.50.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18They wiped almost a tenner from
0:21:18 > 0:21:19the cost of the napkin rings,
0:21:19 > 0:21:21paying £30 for the boxful.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23And finally, pocketed a watch
0:21:23 > 0:21:25for £45 notes.
0:21:25 > 0:21:26Just in the nick of time!
0:21:26 > 0:21:30It's the father and son combination. This is always a winner, isn't it?
0:21:30 > 0:21:33Surendra, tell me. Which is your favourite piece?
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Uh, it's the napkin rings that we bought.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40- That's your favourite, is it?- Yeah. - Do you agree with that?
0:21:40 > 0:21:41Yes, definitely, yeah.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Always agree with your father, that's why you get on so well.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47- And are the napkin rings going to bring the biggest profit?- I hope so.
0:21:47 > 0:21:48I think we got them for a pretty decent price,
0:21:48 > 0:21:51therefore the margins on that should be pretty good.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54- And you're agreeing with that too? - Definitely.- OK, fine.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58- And how much did you spend altogether?- A total of £117.50.
0:21:58 > 0:22:06£117.50. So would that be £182.50? Something like that?
0:22:07 > 0:22:12- That is correct.- £182.50.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16Anita, that's a lot of cash, isn't it?
0:22:16 > 0:22:20In a fair like this with this money, the sky is the limit.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22I suggest, guys, you go and have a cup of tea,
0:22:22 > 0:22:25Anita's going shopping, we all need to warm up,
0:22:25 > 0:22:28but before that, I want to show you something that is
0:22:28 > 0:22:31actually as pretty as a picture.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Whether you're a grandparent, parent, or a child,
0:22:41 > 0:22:46what do we have lots of knocking around at home? You've got it.
0:22:46 > 0:22:51Photographs. And therefore, what do we need? Lots of photo frames.
0:22:51 > 0:22:56And that's why photo frames are perennially excellent
0:22:56 > 0:22:59sellers in fares and at auction.
0:22:59 > 0:23:04Now, this quartet that I've come up with are unusual.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Firstly, we've got a set of three,
0:23:08 > 0:23:10each of which have these pierced
0:23:10 > 0:23:11foliate frames, and they've got
0:23:11 > 0:23:14something of the Chinese about them,
0:23:14 > 0:23:16with these little pagoda corners.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Look on the back, its complete look
0:23:19 > 0:23:21with silk covered boards.
0:23:21 > 0:23:26If you look carefully, you can just make out the tiniest little
0:23:26 > 0:23:29continental silver discharge mark on the top there,
0:23:29 > 0:23:31where it says 800,
0:23:31 > 0:23:33and the little oval stamp.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36So, they're not top quality, British
0:23:36 > 0:23:39fully hallmarked silver frames,
0:23:39 > 0:23:41they're continental silver frames
0:23:41 > 0:23:43to an 800 standard, but there's
0:23:43 > 0:23:44nothing the matter with that.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46So this is charming, isn't it?
0:23:46 > 0:23:48You could have, for example,
0:23:48 > 0:23:50grandchild number one, grandchild
0:23:50 > 0:23:52number two, grandchild number 3,
0:23:52 > 0:23:55and mum and dad in the oval frame.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57The whole family collection,
0:23:57 > 0:24:00all captured in one clutch
0:24:00 > 0:24:02of solid silver frames.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06But the difficult thing is, how much to pay for the group of four?
0:24:06 > 0:24:11Because retail, in a shop, each of these frames would be
0:24:11 > 0:24:16worth between £80 and £120, so let's give them an average of £100.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20There's £400 worth of frames there.
0:24:20 > 0:24:26In a fair like this, the four could be yours for £120.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28But what would they be worth
0:24:28 > 0:24:30with some dazzling pictures in them?
0:24:33 > 0:24:38Well, that must've increased the value by at least £4.
0:24:48 > 0:24:53Well, how lovely to be back at Etwall, on the outskirts of Derby at
0:24:53 > 0:24:56Hanson's Saleroom with Isabel Murtough.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- Hello, Isabel.- Hi, Tim. - Great to be here.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02First up is the Dunhill lighter
0:25:02 > 0:25:04and what is it about
0:25:04 > 0:25:06old cigarette lighters?
0:25:06 > 0:25:07Well, these days, smoking has
0:25:07 > 0:25:09gone out of fashion, but we do
0:25:09 > 0:25:11have the old chaps who are still
0:25:11 > 0:25:12collecting their smoking ephemera.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15Yes, I suppose best maker, some would
0:25:15 > 0:25:17argue, in the world, is Dunhill,
0:25:17 > 0:25:20and will it be listed on the internet?
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Yes, everything's photographed on the internet, ready for our live sales.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25That will help, won't it?
0:25:25 > 0:25:26- Definitely.- What's your estimate?
0:25:26 > 0:25:31- £40-£60.- OK, £60 paid. Well they might just get there, mightn't they?
0:25:31 > 0:25:33Moving on to a bit of cut glass.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35No ordinary cut glass this, is it?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38No, it's wonderful. Absolutely beautiful.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Stourbridge crystal with
0:25:40 > 0:25:41the lovely acid etching
0:25:41 > 0:25:43and the faceted necks as well.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45- Really beautiful.- Yes.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47The faceted neck means you can grip
0:25:47 > 0:25:49it if it's a bit of a cold wine, if
0:25:49 > 0:25:52there's a bit of condensation on the outside,
0:25:52 > 0:25:53and the acid etching, these
0:25:53 > 0:25:55are the grey bits, aren't they?
0:25:55 > 0:25:56That's right.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58And it makes such a delightful contrast.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Lovely, lovely design.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Any problems for these?
0:26:02 > 0:26:04On one of them, we've noticed that
0:26:04 > 0:26:07it doesn't have the original stopper.
0:26:07 > 0:26:08We can tell by the colour
0:26:08 > 0:26:10and also it's a bit of a wobbly fit.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Yeah, that's a pity, isn't it?
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Whereas that one's perfect in its socket.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Would they have started out as two like this, do you think?
0:26:18 > 0:26:22I imagine they would've come from a bigger set, four, possibly six.
0:26:22 > 0:26:27Left over from a larger set. One stopper not-so-hot.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29What does that do to the value?
0:26:29 > 0:26:32We've put a very conservative estimate of £30-50.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35I think they're beautiful so hopefully they run away.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Well they need to, because £120 was paid.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40So, that's a bit of a dark hole.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43The last item is the manicure items,
0:26:43 > 0:26:46which again, I don't think match.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49No, we've got a couple of different hallmarks in there,
0:26:49 > 0:26:521911 and '12, and also I'm not sure
0:26:52 > 0:26:54the scissors are original to the set.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56They look rather bent to me.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57They are. A bit skew-whiff.
0:26:57 > 0:26:59Well, I don't know about manicure sets.
0:26:59 > 0:27:03I mean, you'll sell one for a lot of money if it all matches, won't you?
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Yes, if you have all the original pieces
0:27:05 > 0:27:07in their original leather boxes,
0:27:07 > 0:27:09all the gaps filled, it can do really well.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11What about these three then?
0:27:11 > 0:27:15- That don't match and are probably in the wrong box?- £20-£30.
0:27:15 > 0:27:16OK, £70 paid.
0:27:16 > 0:27:21There are so many holes, I'm afraid, in this teams' lots that they're
0:27:21 > 0:27:22definitely going to need the bonus buy.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25So, thank you, Isabel, let's go and have a look at it.
0:27:26 > 0:27:31- Well, girls, this is exciting, isn't it?- Yes.- You gave Chris £50.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32What did you spend it on, Chris?
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Well there wasn't an awful lot of money really, Tim,
0:27:35 > 0:27:40- but I think I've bought something very well, for you girls.- Oooh!
0:27:40 > 0:27:46- Shiny. I want!- Shiny, clean, silver, cut glass, classic or what?
0:27:46 > 0:27:49- I'll try not to drop it.- Very nice.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51And you say, how much
0:27:51 > 0:27:52did you spend on it?
0:27:52 > 0:27:54- £30.- Oh! That's quite good.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56- That's not bad.- What period?
0:27:56 > 0:28:02Well the silver is 1925, some nice pretty little flowers in there,
0:28:02 > 0:28:04side table, sparkly, very clean.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06I think just lovely.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07- You happy?- Yes.- Yes.
0:28:07 > 0:28:08Thank heavens for that.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11The proverbial diamond in the rough, hopefully.
0:28:11 > 0:28:15- And how much do you think it's going to make?- At least £50.- At least £50?
0:28:15 > 0:28:19- Hmm.- Why not? How about that, girls? I'd pay £50 for that, wouldn't you?
0:28:19 > 0:28:21- Oh, yeah.- Yes, of course we would.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23Well he paid £30 actually, so there you go.
0:28:23 > 0:28:25Anyway, hang onto that thought, girls,
0:28:25 > 0:28:27because right now for the audience at home,
0:28:27 > 0:28:31let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the little vase.
0:28:31 > 0:28:35- OK, Isabel, ideal for a posy. - Indeed.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38- Lovely for a little flower on the mantelpiece.- Wouldn't it be?
0:28:38 > 0:28:40And the glass is good, isn't it?
0:28:40 > 0:28:41Yeah, it's in good condition,
0:28:41 > 0:28:44lovely hobnail cut around the middle,
0:28:44 > 0:28:45no obvious chips around the base,
0:28:45 > 0:28:47which is what the collectors are looking for.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50Exactly. And a nice silver mount.
0:28:50 > 0:28:51Yes. Hallmarked, 1925.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53So what would your value be on that?
0:28:53 > 0:28:54We'd put £20-£30.
0:28:54 > 0:28:55OK, fine.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58So I think Chris has done very well, actually,
0:28:58 > 0:29:01because it's not easy to find these things and who knows?
0:29:01 > 0:29:04It'll make more than the £30 that he paid, I've no doubt.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Anyway, that's it for the Reds.
0:29:06 > 0:29:12Now for the Blues, who've gone for a remarkably silvery looking group.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14Three hallmarked silver buttons.
0:29:14 > 0:29:18These are pretty, I really like them with the stylish cherubs on there.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20Originally they might've been a set of four,
0:29:20 > 0:29:23in an original leather box, which would've been lovely to see,
0:29:23 > 0:29:27and the button collectors would've gone mad for them.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31- As three, they're still saleable. I think they should do well.- How much?
0:29:31 > 0:29:35- £40-£60.- OK, £42.50 paid. So that's fine.
0:29:35 > 0:29:41Next, the silver serviette rings. 1971.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44Yes, a bit later than we would've hoped.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46But they're pretty, nice engine turned.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48They are engraved on the cartouche,
0:29:48 > 0:29:50so that does put some collectors off.
0:29:50 > 0:29:51So, estimate-wise?
0:29:51 > 0:29:54- £10-£15?- OK, £30 paid.
0:29:54 > 0:29:55But on the other hand,
0:29:55 > 0:29:59- £10-£15 in a box for solid silver is not a lot, is it?- No.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02- It might just nudge up there. - I hope so.
0:30:02 > 0:30:05And lastly then, is the open faced,
0:30:05 > 0:30:09keyless lever gent's silver pocket watch. How do you get on with those?
0:30:09 > 0:30:13Pocket watches do well, it's a good collectible piece, with this
0:30:13 > 0:30:15late Victorian era, the keyless
0:30:15 > 0:30:18are more popular than the key-wound.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21I guess because people can easily wear them
0:30:21 > 0:30:24and not have to fiddle around with that irritating key to wind them up.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- And it's in good nick.- It is, in good order, yeah.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29I mean you never want to see a crack in the enamel, do you?
0:30:29 > 0:30:31- No, that really kills it. - What do you think you'll get?
0:30:31 > 0:30:33Hopefully £40-£60.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35OK, £45 paid.
0:30:35 > 0:30:36So, in my view,
0:30:36 > 0:30:39this team overall have done much better in their buying
0:30:39 > 0:30:43in that they fit more closely to the estimates anyway,
0:30:43 > 0:30:45and they're less likely to need the bonus buy,
0:30:45 > 0:30:48but we're going to go and have a look at it anyway.
0:30:48 > 0:30:53Well, Anita Manning, you had £182.50. Show us what you bought.
0:30:53 > 0:30:57- The boys wanted me to spend everything.- Yes.- Yes.- So I bought...
0:30:58 > 0:31:02- Nice, nice.- I thought that it was a pretty thing.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04I know you guys like food,
0:31:04 > 0:31:08and this is something that could hold nice little nuts or whatever.
0:31:08 > 0:31:12It's beautifully embossed with these flowers and foliage
0:31:12 > 0:31:17and so on and I particularly like this little knot at the top.
0:31:17 > 0:31:18I thought that that was beautiful.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22Continental mark on the inside of the lid,
0:31:22 > 0:31:25I took a wee bit of a chance, boys,
0:31:25 > 0:31:28in that I hope that it was all silver.
0:31:28 > 0:31:32So, have a wee look at it, and tell me what you think.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35Yeah, I like the sort of patterned design on it.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37I think it's ever so pretty.
0:31:37 > 0:31:40And how much did you pay for it, did you use the lot?
0:31:40 > 0:31:45Ah, boys, I'm afraid I blew quite a lot. I spent £180 on it.
0:31:45 > 0:31:51I know you wanted me to spend the money, I took a chance,
0:31:51 > 0:31:52and I paid the weight price on it.
0:31:52 > 0:31:57I think as long as we make some profit on it, I will be quite happy.
0:31:57 > 0:32:02- Fair enough.- I would be delighted. - Surendra, wouldn't we all?
0:32:04 > 0:32:07- That is the right attitude, boy, yes.- We've got to be positive.
0:32:07 > 0:32:08Exactly right.
0:32:08 > 0:32:11So, let's check out Anita's entree dish
0:32:11 > 0:32:13with our auctioneer of the moment.
0:32:15 > 0:32:22- OK, Is, little toasted cheese or hot nuts.- Whatever takes your fancy.
0:32:22 > 0:32:24- It's a sweet little thing, isn't it?- It is.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26I like the finial, got a bud finial
0:32:26 > 0:32:30on there as well, and the cast handles.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32- It's pretty.- Yeah.
0:32:32 > 0:32:34I mean, you look at the work in cutting
0:32:34 > 0:32:39and shaping each of those little petals. And it's silver, yes?
0:32:39 > 0:32:45Well Tim, the cover is silver. Continental 925 silver.
0:32:45 > 0:32:46The base is plate.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50- You jest, Isabel. - I'm afraid I don't.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53They're a marriage, not made in heaven, I'm afraid.
0:32:53 > 0:32:57- Oh, dear, it's all loose! That's not good, is it?- No.
0:32:57 > 0:33:03- And it's a bonus buy, and the expert spent £180 on it.- Goodness.- See?
0:33:03 > 0:33:08- See her face? She's horrified!- OK, so what's the estimate?
0:33:08 > 0:33:14- A generous £50-£80.- A GENEROUS £50-£80. Dear, oh dear, oh dear.
0:33:14 > 0:33:18It will be a bloodbath if the team go with that,
0:33:18 > 0:33:21so let's hope they don't. Anyway, we shall see in a minute, won't we?
0:33:21 > 0:33:22- We will, Tim.- We will, lovely.
0:33:24 > 0:33:30Ladies' bid of £20, and £2, £25, £28, sold.
0:33:30 > 0:33:34- Now, Nicky, Gilly, this is going to be fun, isn't it?- Yes.- Yes.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38- Are you concerned about anything at all? Gilly?- No.- No?
0:33:38 > 0:33:41- You're happy about everything next?- Yeah.- Yes.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43OK, I'll just run through the items with you.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45The leather lighter by Dunhill,
0:33:45 > 0:33:47£60 paid, she's put £40-£60 on it.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49Then you've got the decanters.
0:33:49 > 0:33:51£120 you paid for those.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53She has been quite critical of them,
0:33:53 > 0:33:54mainly because one of the stoppers
0:33:54 > 0:33:56doesn't match, and that's a problem
0:33:56 > 0:33:58for her, it's a bit kind of loose.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01But the cutting is perfect.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03Such good quality stuff, isn't it?
0:34:03 > 0:34:06She's put £30-£50 which I think on the low side.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08I think you'll finish up somewhere in-between,
0:34:08 > 0:34:10so it may not be as bad as all that.
0:34:10 > 0:34:15And then the nail buffer, she's put £20-£30 on, and you paid £70.
0:34:15 > 0:34:18- So, let's hope for the best, all right?- Fingers crossed.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21You'll have to cross everything actually, not only fingers.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25Your first item up is the lighter by Dunhill,
0:34:25 > 0:34:28so as they say, let's strike a light!
0:34:28 > 0:34:29Lovely Dunhill lighter,
0:34:29 > 0:34:30very collectable,
0:34:30 > 0:34:31and in working order.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33So there we are.
0:34:33 > 0:34:34And what shall we say, £20?
0:34:34 > 0:34:37For a really good Dunhill lighter,
0:34:37 > 0:34:38£45...

0:34:42 > 0:34:46- £55 on the net. £60 is it?- Yes!
0:34:46 > 0:34:48We're battling it out at £55
0:34:48 > 0:34:49and £60 where?
0:34:49 > 0:34:51At £55 I have on the internet
0:34:51 > 0:34:52at £55...

0:34:58 > 0:34:59gavel's raised.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01Fair warning at £55...
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Oh, dear, that is minus £5.
0:35:04 > 0:35:05No worries.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07- Not too bad.- Now, the decanter.
0:35:07 > 0:35:08...Wonderful condition,
0:35:08 > 0:35:10and one bid on commission,
0:35:10 > 0:35:12I have to start it at £45.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15On commission at £45, £50 is it?
0:35:15 > 0:35:18At £45, do I see £50 now?
0:35:18 > 0:35:20Come on! They're pretty!
0:35:20 > 0:35:21..£50, thank you, sir.
0:35:21 > 0:35:22Yes! Thank you!
0:35:22 > 0:35:23..And £5 with me,
0:35:23 > 0:35:25£60 if you like. One more.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28At £55, gavel's raised,
0:35:28 > 0:35:32at £55, and selling.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34That's £5 short of £60 which is £60
0:35:34 > 0:35:37short of £120 so that's minus £65,
0:35:37 > 0:35:38which means overall
0:35:38 > 0:35:41you're minus £70. Oh, dear, oh, dear.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43Let's see how the old buffer goes.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45£20 for a sweet manicure set.
0:35:48 > 0:35:49Couple of different dates on there,
0:35:49 > 0:35:51at £20? £10 if you like.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53£10 I'm bid, £10 and £12,

0:36:12 > 0:36:14It's kept going on!
0:36:14 > 0:36:16At £28, lady in the blue,
0:36:16 > 0:36:19she's not going to give up at £28.
0:36:19 > 0:36:21£28 is £2 short of £30,
0:36:21 > 0:36:23which is £40 short of £70,
0:36:23 > 0:36:25so that is minus £42.
0:36:25 > 0:36:26And you had £70,
0:36:26 > 0:36:29so that means you're minus £112.
0:36:29 > 0:36:32- Epic.- Epic fail.- £112.
0:36:32 > 0:36:33Can I take it you are going to go

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Ladies' bid on the aisle at £20.
0:36:48 > 0:36:49Do I see £2 now?

0:36:53 > 0:36:55Do I see £2 elsewhere?

0:37:02 > 0:37:03- Come on!- Yes! Come on come on!
0:37:03 > 0:37:05You're in profit.
0:37:05 > 0:37:06..don't miss it for £1.

0:37:14 > 0:37:16At £35, ladies' bid on the aisle,
0:37:16 > 0:37:19make no mistake, we're going.
0:37:19 > 0:37:20At £35.
0:37:20 > 0:37:25You were £112, you're now £107.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28So, there we are. That's not too bad, is it?
0:37:28 > 0:37:30It could be a winning score, minus £107.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33- Just don't say a word to the Blues. - No, we won't.- Well done, girls.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35You're very sporting.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42- OK, guys, do you know how the Reds got on?- No, no. Not spoken to them.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45Good. We don't want you to, that's lovely.
0:37:45 > 0:37:50Now, the Art Nouveau buttons, the three of them,
0:37:50 > 0:37:54she's estimated £40-£60 on those. You paid £42.50.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57- So, she's been very positive about them.- Yeah, possibly a profit.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00I think what it is, Anita, they're cast, which is so nice, isn't it?
0:38:00 > 0:38:03Uh-huh. Very pretty. We like them.
0:38:03 > 0:38:05- We all like them. - Yeah, we do.- Perfect.
0:38:05 > 0:38:07First up are the Art Nouveau buttons, and here they come.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Here we are, the set of three silver
0:38:09 > 0:38:10Art Nouveau buttons. They're lovely.
0:38:10 > 0:38:12Cast with cherubs.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14And I can start at £30 for the three.
0:38:14 > 0:38:18£30 for the silver buttons, £30.
0:38:18 > 0:38:20Oh, £20 then. Go on. £20.
0:38:20 > 0:38:21Not expensive for £20.
0:38:21 > 0:38:22I've got you at £20.
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Well done at the back.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25At £20, ladies' bid...

0:38:31 > 0:38:34Not expensive. £30? One more?
0:38:34 > 0:38:37At £28, lady seated, at £28...
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Uh-oh, Vikesh, that prediction's
0:38:40 > 0:38:42gone down the proverbial.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45..at £28 seated, all done at £28.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47- Aww!- £28 is ridiculous!
0:38:47 > 0:38:51£2 short of £30, which is £12.50,
0:38:51 > 0:38:54so that's minus £14.50.
