0:00:02 > 0:00:04Wetherby in Yorkshire has for centuries been
0:00:04 > 0:00:07an important crossing point and watering hole
0:00:07 > 0:00:08on the Great North Road,
0:00:08 > 0:00:10famous for its many coaching inns which are still used
0:00:10 > 0:00:12by travellers today.
0:00:14 > 0:00:18Exactly 198 miles that way is London
0:00:18 > 0:00:23and exactly 198 miles that way is Edinburgh, but just a couple
0:00:23 > 0:00:28of miles away over there is Wetherby Racecourse
0:00:28 > 0:00:30and that's where we're at.
0:00:30 > 0:00:36Your carriage awaits, so let's go bargain hunting, yeah!
0:00:36 > 0:00:37You want to go, you guys?
0:00:37 > 0:00:40THEY QUACK
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Well, whatever the weather,
0:01:01 > 0:01:06there are always bargains to be had here at Wetherby.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Let's take a sneaky peek
0:01:08 > 0:01:12and hope that they are able to MILK some profits.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14Moo...
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Coming up, Anita lays down the law...
0:01:19 > 0:01:24- We want to buy glamorous things... - We do.- ..expensive glamorous things.
0:01:24 > 0:01:28- Wonderful!- You can just follow on behind us.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32- ..and Philip reveals an electrical shocker.- Oh!- Wow.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35These are really good in London.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38- We're in Darlington.- That's true.
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Let's meet the teams.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47On the Red Team today, we have friends, Sarah and Diana,
0:01:47 > 0:01:52and for the Blues, we have fiances Ken and Julie. Hello, everyone.
0:01:52 > 0:01:57- Hello!- Now, Sarah, you've worked as a GP for 30 years.- Yes.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- Was it good fun, being a GP? - I love being a GP.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03I particularly like looking after the three generations
0:02:03 > 0:02:05now that I've been there so long.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08You almost know before they tell you what their symptoms are
0:02:08 > 0:02:11because you can remember treating the grandmother for exactly
0:02:11 > 0:02:13- the same thing when she was a nipper?- Yes, absolutely.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15That's quite something, isn't it?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Now, Sarah, you're here as the result of a present.- Yes.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22My wonderful husband does something fantastic for me every ten years
0:02:22 > 0:02:25and for my 60th birthday, he wrote to 60 people.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27It was called 60 Things To Do Before You're 70
0:02:27 > 0:02:31and each of these people suggested something to do with me -
0:02:31 > 0:02:35they have to do it with me - and Diana suggested Bargain Hunt.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Oh, brilliant. What a lovely thing to do, though.- Absolutely.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Is your husband intensely romantic, then, would you say?
0:02:40 > 0:02:44- Every ten years. - Once every ten years. OK, fine.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Diana, it says here that you're connected
0:02:46 > 0:02:47with the medical profession, too.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Well, somewhat loosely, yes. My husband is a doctor.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53- We met, actually, because our husbands were working together.- OK.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Now, there's an interesting story behind how you were named.
0:02:56 > 0:03:01I'm called Diana because my grandfather had a grey mare
0:03:01 > 0:03:05in the First World War and this grey mare was called Diana
0:03:05 > 0:03:08and they were gassed together and came out together,
0:03:08 > 0:03:09both of them alive.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12And my mother was called Diana and then when I came along,
0:03:12 > 0:03:13I was called Diana.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Well, it's an amazing thing, isn't it?
0:03:16 > 0:03:17I was named after a warhorse.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Now, what are you going to get up to, you two, when it comes
0:03:20 > 0:03:23to buying these antiques and collectables out here today?
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Well, we have similar tastes and we think we might like to go
0:03:27 > 0:03:30maybe for something a bit pretty, or maybe something a bit quirky.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33You've got all your criteria set out. You're very efficient.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36- Well, I wouldn't put it like that!- I think you're going to do very well.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Very good luck.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Now, you two lovebirds.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43You're engaged, but you're neighbours, right?
0:03:43 > 0:03:46- Yes, we were neighbours, yes.- And did you chat over the fence?
0:03:46 > 0:03:51- No.- Oh.- I used to avoid him. - Oh, did you?- He was too noisy.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54He used to wander down the drive on his phone talking
0:03:54 > 0:03:57and I used to sit on my decking, thinking,
0:03:57 > 0:04:01- "Gosh, I wish you'd be quiet."- Was he a bit of a boomer?- Yeah, definitely.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05OK. Well, he was clearly involved in important business.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Oh, yes, definitely. Aviation.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Ken, it says here that you've got this passion for aviation.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14- Tell us about it.- I've been keen on planes since I was a small boy.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16I've followed the aviation preservation scene,
0:04:16 > 0:04:20bought magazines and I used to run locally here in Yorkshire
0:04:20 > 0:04:24- a big airshow for many years. - You've also flown a Spitfire.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27- Yes, indeed.- Gosh, what a thrill that is.- Yes.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29And which Spit did you fly?
0:04:29 > 0:04:33I flew the Grace Spitfire ML407, which is a two-seater.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35And did you have quite a spin in her?
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Oh, yes, I took the controls
0:04:36 > 0:04:40and we did a victory roll... It was just a wonderful, wonderful day.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44- What a great way to celebrate your 50th birthday.- Exactly right.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- Now, Julie, you have a passion for motor cars.- I do, yes.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49What sort of cars do you drive? What are your favourites?
0:04:49 > 0:04:54Well, I've got a Mercedes SLK, which is better than Ken's MG.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- Definitely, so much smoother. - Oh, definitely.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58The MGs have more character.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Yeah, they used to call those MGs crumpet catchers, didn't they?
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Absolutely, and they still do.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Good, I'm glad it still works. Fine, now it's the money moment.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Here we go. The money moment. There it is, look. £300.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12You know the rules, your experts await
0:05:12 > 0:05:14and off you go and very, very, very good luck.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20Of course, they have appointments with their experts.
0:05:20 > 0:05:24And for the Reds, it's our own big softie, Philip Serrell.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28And pushing the Blues hard is Anita Manning.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33- I'm after something quirky. - Oh, right.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- Something really quirky, something different.- And silver.
0:05:36 > 0:05:40- Silver or some jewellery. - Oh, we'll really get on well.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42- So, have you two got a plan? - Wish we did, really.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45- It would help if we did have a plan. - What, just life generally...?
0:05:45 > 0:05:47- Yeah, just generally. - Has been tough, has it?
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Now, it's been good, life, to me. Really good.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Have to hear more about that, then.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55OK, teams, your time starts now.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02From the off, Ken has the wind in his sails.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Nicely built.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Self-steering gear.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08For some reason, I don't think that would do very well at auction,
0:06:08 > 0:06:12but I could be wrong. I mean, it is quite nice.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17- It hasn't turned you on, has it?- No, no. That's more Ken's thing.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Sorry.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- We want to please everybody. - Well, I always was the ideas man.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Oh, well. Nice try, Ken.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Meanwhile, Phil has found just the thing
0:06:28 > 0:06:30for that Austin Powers bachelor pad.
0:06:31 > 0:06:32Groovy, baby.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36There comes a point in your life when you see
0:06:36 > 0:06:40something like that there and you realise that you were born too soon.
0:06:41 > 0:06:45- That's true.- 65 quid and I'll throw you the little side table.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50- Hang on just a minute. Just hold on a minute.- Go for it.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51Really?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- So it's 65 quid for the mirror... - No, not the mirror.- What?
0:06:54 > 0:06:58The side table. You're on a winner, I'm helping you.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01He is absolutely spot-on because that is easier to sell
0:07:01 > 0:07:04than a Georgian mahogany chest of drawers because it's...
0:07:04 > 0:07:06I don't know, it's funky, it's cool.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Can you put it by for an hour for us?
0:07:08 > 0:07:10- And then we've got something put by, haven't we?- Yes.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Could you do that, Jimmy? You're a gentleman and a scholar.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15That's one on the back burner for the Reds
0:07:15 > 0:07:19and Phil has spotted something else with a slightly older pedigree.
0:07:21 > 0:07:22Do you like that?
0:07:24 > 0:07:27Can I look closely? Yes, I do.
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Now, it's a bit primitive,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31but I quite like it because it's Arts and Crafts.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33It's £110.
0:07:33 > 0:07:37- Should we ask him to put it by for us for an hour?- Yes, OK.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39That gives us time to scoot round.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42I'm now mind-reader, but they don't exactly look overwhelmed.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47That's two items on the back-burner, but no decisions yet.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51The Blues have found something small and shiny.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Oh, it's nine carat, it's nine carat.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Nine carat and it's £38.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00- JULIE: How much is it, sorry?- 38.- 38.
0:08:00 > 0:08:05It's nice in that it's got this machined finish here,
0:08:05 > 0:08:08which is very sort of 1930s.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12KEN: How practical would it be for somebody?
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Well, it might not be practical for a big man like you,
0:08:15 > 0:08:17but for ladies like us, it will be very practical.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21JULIE: I just liked it because it was unusual.
0:08:21 > 0:08:25And it is nine carat and it's not dear at that.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27We have this little mechanism...
0:08:29 > 0:08:35..which reveals a little instrument for manicure.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Manicure? It looks more like a toothpick to me, Anita.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40- And that's... - KEN: What's your best on that?
0:08:40 > 0:08:44There's not a lot of come and go on that because it is nine carat,
0:08:44 > 0:08:47but I could do it for about 34.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50I think... I mean, there can't be a lot of go on it because it's gold
0:08:50 > 0:08:54and they can't sell it to you at less than weight price.
0:08:54 > 0:08:57KEN: Do you think we'd be able to get round about 40 to 45 for it?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- You might get a wee surprise.- It probably scraps for more than that.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04- It probably scraps.- JULIE: The value of gold is quite high, isn't it?- Yes.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06I'm going to be awkward now and say...
0:09:06 > 0:09:07Do it round 30.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09What about a round 32?
0:09:09 > 0:09:12Which isn't very round, but it sounds better to me.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15- I'm surrounded by Scots folk, but we'll go for that.- It's a good buy.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17I think it's a great wee buy.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21JULIE: I just think it's something that's just a little bit different.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- Well spotted.- Yeah.
0:09:29 > 0:09:33Back with the Reds and I wonder how they'd measure their progress so far.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36Oh, how about one of these for £34?
0:09:36 > 0:09:38It's a parallel ruler, isn't it?
0:09:38 > 0:09:41So you'd put it on your drawing board
0:09:41 > 0:09:44and then you'd run it up and down with these here, look.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48The maker's mark there is UWW, makers in Birmingham.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51I always think that if someone's proud enough
0:09:51 > 0:09:55to put their maker's stamp on it, then they're proud of making it, aren't they?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57- Look, do you like that? - I do like it.- Yeah.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02- Would 20 buy it off you?- Erm...
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- No, I'm sorry, I can't do that. - That's fine.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07- I'll do 23.- I'd buy it.
0:10:07 > 0:10:12- Do you think 23?- Yeah.- We'll go with that.- Absolutely right. Well spotted.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15- I like that.- Now, that's what I call a straight deal.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16These teams aren't hanging about.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22That's a bit too quirky even for me.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Quirky, you mean a lot of old junk?
0:10:24 > 0:10:27THEY LAUGH
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- What about a washing dolly?!- Mmm.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32He doesn't like that, I think we'll move on.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34He's a hard man to please, our Phil.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Meanwhile, the Blues are getting all revved up
0:10:36 > 0:10:38over something they know a lot about.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Car mascots!
0:10:41 > 0:10:43This one's called a grille mascot
0:10:43 > 0:10:46and instead of having them on your bonnet, you'd put that on to...
0:10:46 > 0:10:48- Remember the mesh grilles?- Yes.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51You'd fasten that to your grille and they would be spiders,
0:10:51 > 0:10:53scorpions, butterflies and everything.
0:10:53 > 0:10:57I collect them on the motorway, it's much cheaper.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59They fall off!
0:10:59 > 0:11:02JULIE: So is there anything there that would do well at auction?
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- KEN: How much is the Cadillac one? - The Cadillac is... That can be 60.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10The American ones tend to be a bit bigger.
0:11:10 > 0:11:15It's showing the glamour of post-war America, really, isn't it?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Absolutely. - Style, Hollywood and so on.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21So in America, they were putting that on cars.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25In England, they with they were putting a little Morris...
0:11:25 > 0:11:27JULIE: It's impressive.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Would that date from the... What, 30s-40s?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33KEN: Yeah, probably the '40s, when the cars were big,
0:11:33 > 0:11:35they had running boards on them and things like that.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39But there's not been any damage to it. It's beautiful.
0:11:39 > 0:11:40What do you think?
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- 55 and you've got to a deal. - Yeah.- 55.- All right, there we are.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48JULIE: There we are, that's another buy.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50So you've bought a Cadillac car mascot.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Two items in the bag already for the Blues.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57That's got to be music to their ears.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58Speaking of which...
0:11:58 > 0:12:01- A music stand.- Yes, but what it does...- Fantastic.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I just love these.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07- So you can carry it around with you? - Sometimes they have...
0:12:10 > 0:12:12..a cover that fits on the end.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17How much is your music stand, please?
0:12:17 > 0:12:20- To you, sir, £55.- To me?
0:12:20 > 0:12:23It's worth 30-50 quid.
0:12:23 > 0:12:2630 is fine, 30 is fine.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Let's just have a look at it first.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32- They're nice things, aren't they? - They are.- How old is it?
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I would think this is probably just about Edwardian.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Might be a little bit earlier than that.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40And these would have been for...
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- travelling...- Musicians.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Musicians or draughtsmen or artists.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- I like it.- There you are. And that wants to go...
0:12:52 > 0:12:56- There you are.- Do you like it, Sarah?- I like that a lot.- I like it.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59If you want to buy that, I think that's a nice thing.
0:12:59 > 0:13:03- And it's different. Yes, I like that. - Definitely?- Yes, definitely.- Right.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- Thank you very much. Thank you very much indeed.- Thank you.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09I think that's miraculous, the way it's now standing up on its own.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Almost as miraculous as the fact that both teams have now got
0:13:12 > 0:13:16two items apiece and there's oodles of time left on the clock.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19These girls are red-hot. 18 minutes down, two bits bought,
0:13:19 > 0:13:22one bit put by... I'm going to go find a deck chair.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28Let's hope you can put it up quicker than that music stand, Phil.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29The Blues are also down to their last buy
0:13:29 > 0:13:31and it looks like they have a plan.
0:13:31 > 0:13:32We've got a lot of time now
0:13:32 > 0:13:36so we can look for the real hard-core jewellery now.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40- That's what Julie wants.- Silver. - Silver, yeah. That's what we want.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46This is what I find bizarre about this job, you know.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48You've been at it for as long as I have and all of a sudden,
0:13:48 > 0:13:54stuff like this, which were bins out of...cotton mills
0:13:54 > 0:13:57and warehouses, they're suddenly becoming collectable
0:13:57 > 0:14:02and usable as laundry baskets, as a child's plaything or whatever.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06I just did not get that. I mean, I just think I was born too soon.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Sadly it's because they're all shutting down, isn't it?
0:14:09 > 0:14:12Can I just say, if I ever say that again, you just say,
0:14:12 > 0:14:14"No, no, Philip, you're not that old."
0:14:14 > 0:14:17You'll have to sharpen up a bit, you are.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19- Oh, do get on with it.- Let's go.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Now, to celebrate having Dr Sarah on the show today,
0:14:25 > 0:14:28I'd like to show you a little something I found
0:14:28 > 0:14:30when we were in Alexandra Palace.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36If you are of a nervous disposition or are at all
0:14:36 > 0:14:40squeamish about all things medical - maybe you're eating your lunch -
0:14:40 > 0:14:43I suggest you avert your eyes for a moment or two
0:14:43 > 0:14:47while I reveal a particularly gruesome gadget.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50What do you think about that? Well, it goes on a bit...
0:14:50 > 0:14:52And on a bit...
0:14:52 > 0:14:53And on a bit.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Maximum extension?
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Well, according to the back, that's five to...
0:14:59 > 0:15:02That will be 40 centimetres.
0:15:02 > 0:15:07It's stamped with a known surgical instrument maker -
0:15:07 > 0:15:12Down Bros, London, makers in the 1920s and 1930s
0:15:12 > 0:15:16and part of the clue as to its use is down at this end.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20If I take that slide out, it's got two little tubes,
0:15:20 > 0:15:24one of which has got the original light bulb in it.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29That's a powerful pencil light, there.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Sadly that one's missing the end of its pencil light.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35And then here it gets wired up to a battery.
0:15:37 > 0:15:42And the surgeon would insert the lighting device down these side
0:15:42 > 0:15:48tubes and the light would shine eventually into the central tube
0:15:48 > 0:15:51and if you look down the end of that,
0:15:51 > 0:15:53you get a perfectly clear view.
0:15:53 > 0:15:58Which is handy, isn't it, if you're going to put it down the cake hole?
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Rather like the sword swallower in the circus,
0:16:01 > 0:16:06it would be inserted, presumably when you're unconscious,
0:16:06 > 0:16:11in the cake hole that and make its way down the oesophagus
0:16:11 > 0:16:13and into the top of your tummy
0:16:13 > 0:16:16where the surgeon could have a little squint around.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21And it would then be removed gently...
0:16:22 > 0:16:24..and he'd then tell you
0:16:24 > 0:16:28whether you're likely to last the rest of the week or not.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32Nowadays, you'll have some super-duper bit of fibre-optic
0:16:32 > 0:16:35which will be inserted into your orifice
0:16:35 > 0:16:38and you won't even know that it's going into you.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41In the old days, though, they did it with bits of kit like this
0:16:41 > 0:16:43and therefore, this is a medical collectable.
0:16:45 > 0:16:46What's it worth?
0:16:46 > 0:16:51Well, here today, the stallholder down the way is clearly not feeling
0:16:51 > 0:16:55very well because he was happy to part with it for £25.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59And I said to him,
0:16:59 > 0:17:00"Open wide!"
0:17:03 > 0:17:06Back at Wetherby Racecourse, the Blues are on the home straight
0:17:06 > 0:17:11with one to go and Anita and Julie are very clear about one thing.
0:17:11 > 0:17:16- We want glamour and we want to buy glamorous things.- We do, yes.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19- Expensive glamorous things. - Wonderful, let's go!
0:17:19 > 0:17:21You can just follow on behind us.
0:17:23 > 0:17:24Let's go.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26# We're off to see the jewellery... #
0:17:33 > 0:17:36After a blistering start and with just one item left to buy,
0:17:36 > 0:17:38the Reds have hit a wall.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47I don't know why, but The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner springs to mind.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Maybe they should look for a stuffed albatross.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- Nothing that quirky. - Nothing is grabbing, is there?
0:17:57 > 0:18:02What are, what are, what are they going to buy?
0:18:02 > 0:18:04Let's leave them to ponder because meanwhile,
0:18:04 > 0:18:07the Blues have found something nice and shiny.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10These have probably never been used.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14They've been given as an engagement present or a wedding present
0:18:14 > 0:18:18and you get these in silver plate and silver.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20These ones are silver.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22Let's have a look at the hallmark. Tell me what you can see, Julie.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24Oh, I'll have to...
0:18:25 > 0:18:27It's a lion.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30It's a lion, so that tells us that it's been assayed silver.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33And then is there a P on there?
0:18:33 > 0:18:36A P, that will tell us our date.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39- London, 1910.- London, 1910.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41So it's just outside Edwardian, isn't it?
0:18:41 > 0:18:44That's right. And I think that these are quite special.
0:18:44 > 0:18:45I think these are very, very nice.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47And I know you have fallen in love with them.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50I have fallen in love with them, yeah.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53I do love those.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Why don't you ask the dealer how much they are?
0:18:56 > 0:18:57- How much are they?- 100.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59100.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03- KEN: Could we twist your arm a little bit?- No.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05There's nearly 7oz of silver in them.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07JULIE: Not even to 95?
0:19:07 > 0:19:10No, it's got to be 100. It's a good price.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12And they stand a chance in auction.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16A silver-plated set of berry spoons in a case like that,
0:19:16 > 0:19:19presentation like that would do well.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22But what you've got is solid silver. You couldn't do...
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Shake the man's hand, Julie. It's your decision.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26We'll have those, thank you.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28APPLAUSE
0:19:29 > 0:19:33- I think you deserve a nice wee cup of tea, now.- A fine brew, Anita.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- A fine brew.- Let's go.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38I think Philip Serrell might need something stronger
0:19:38 > 0:19:41as he manfully tries to get the Reds over that final hurdle.
0:19:43 > 0:19:49We've put by that sort of funky table thingy-majig-jog whatsit.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52- I don't really like it, personally. - We've also got the other book...
0:19:52 > 0:19:54The book trough.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57I don't think either of those things have really grabbed you, yeah?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- No, they haven't. - Not as much as the other two things.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02- We bought those straightaway.- Yeah.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Ah! Hold on.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11TRIUMPHANT MUSIC
0:20:11 > 0:20:14You're both...medical backgrounds? Sort of.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16Sarah is, I'm by association.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Do you see those bottles over there?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21- They're medicine bottles.- The wooden ones?- The wooden ones.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24- They've got bottles inside them. - Really?- Yeah. Yeah.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28And they would have been out of a pharmacist's or whatever.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30So I don't know which ones have got bottles in them.
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Here you are.
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Wow.
0:20:36 > 0:20:41- Dispensing chemist.- Wow. What date are they from?
0:20:41 > 0:20:44About 1870, something like that.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Heavens above.- That one's £35.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48- What do you think to those? - Interesting, isn't it?
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Are they all for sale individually?
0:20:50 > 0:20:52You could buy a job lot of them, couldn't you?
0:20:52 > 0:20:56- Most of these are in boxwood, aren't they?- Yeah, most are boxwood.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58And they're probably 1860, 1870.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Well, some are slightly later than that, but, yeah...
0:21:01 > 0:21:03- But they wouldn't be later than 1905?- No, no, no.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07- They're all basically pre-1900. - Something a doctor or chemist would have.
0:21:07 > 0:21:08A dispensing chemist would have them.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11And he would have all of his drugs
0:21:11 > 0:21:12and everything else in there.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16They'd be carried around on horseback and in carriages before...
0:21:16 > 0:21:19In my opinion, these are the rump of someone's collection. OK?
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Someone's bought a job lot, and kept the good bits
0:21:22 > 0:21:25and thinned out the bad bits, is what I think.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28Because all of these have got minor issues.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Um. All these different makers, I think are fantastic.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33And you must know some of these in your business.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37Well, Allen & Hanburys... My father's godmother was an Allen,
0:21:37 > 0:21:40- from Allen & Hanburys. - What, from that firm?- Yes.
0:21:40 > 0:21:41That's fantastic, isn't it?
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- Now this is really meant to be there, isn't it?- Absolutely.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47- I like them.- Yes.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Do you want to buy all of them? Would 100 quid buy the lot?
0:21:51 > 0:21:53I would say 120.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56As some of them are damaged and not got the glasses in,
0:21:56 > 0:22:00- could you go down to 100? - That would be very, very rock bottom.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02- Do you want to buy them? - Yes, definitely.- Thank you very much.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05- Thank you very much. - You've been really, really kind.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07Do you know what? I like those.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11Well, that's the Red's final item. We've reached the finishing post.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13The race is over, so time's up, teams.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Let's check out what the Red team bought, eh?
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Will the Reds rule with this brass measuring instrument?
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Bought for £23.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26They were in perfect harmony,
0:22:26 > 0:22:29deciding to buy a wooden music stand for £30.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33And finally, they showed plenty of bottle
0:22:33 > 0:22:36and bought the whole set of pharmacist's bottle holders
0:22:36 > 0:22:37for £100.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42- OK, you girls. Now, sharpen up. Was that good?- Brilliant.- Was it?
0:22:42 > 0:22:44- Absolutely brilliant. - Now, Diana, tell me.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Which was your favourite item?
0:22:46 > 0:22:48- The rather nice, little Edwardian music stand.- Oh, yes.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51- And you agree with that? - Yes, that was my favourite as well.
0:22:51 > 0:22:56- OK. Is it going to bring the biggest profit?- Possibly not.- What one will?
0:22:56 > 0:22:59I think the medical jars...with the treen.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- You've written out the prescription for that, have you?- Absolutely.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- TIM LAUGHS - And do you agree with that?- I do, I'm afraid.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08All this agreement is just so wonderful!
0:23:08 > 0:23:10- And how much did you spend?- 153.
0:23:10 > 0:23:15Please may I have £147 of leftover lolly? That's a lot of money
0:23:15 > 0:23:17there, in £5 notes.
0:23:17 > 0:23:21Phillip Serrell. Got any medical problems or anything you need to discuss?
0:23:21 > 0:23:24- Not that I'm prepared to discuss on television.- OK.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26They wanted wacky, and I think it's time for me
0:23:26 > 0:23:28to lighten their darkness.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30I think there's something enigmatic in there.
0:23:30 > 0:23:35In which case, we'd better smartly find out what the Blue team bought, hadn't we?
0:23:35 > 0:23:38The Blues hope they'll be smiling all the way to the bank with
0:23:38 > 0:23:40this gold toothpick, bought for £32.
0:23:41 > 0:23:47They drove a hard bargain and picked up a Cadillac car mascot for £55.
0:23:47 > 0:23:50And they hope these spoons will serve them well at auction.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Bought for a cool £100.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58- OK, now. Team, was that good fun, or was it good fun?- Brilliant.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Wonderful day, thank you very much. Wonderful.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03- And how much did you spend? - 187.
0:24:03 > 0:24:06187. Does that mean I want 113?
0:24:06 > 0:24:09- It does.- OK. I'll have it. Thank you very much.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11My 113. That's a good wodge.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Now, which is your favourite piece? Jules?
0:24:14 > 0:24:18- The silver spoons. - Silver spoons are your favourite.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20- And are they going to bring the biggest profit?- I hope so.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23- Do you?- Yeah. There's a good weight of silver in there.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25It might be the little, tiny lady's manicure things.
0:24:25 > 0:24:29- That's your prediction for the most profit?- I think for the most profit, I think...
0:24:29 > 0:24:33- And what's your favourite favourite?- Well, I'm a motor man, so I like the car mascot, don't I?
0:24:33 > 0:24:36OK. Understood. Say no more.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37Straight over to Anita.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41There you go, Anita, a nice sum of money for you. Get your teeth into.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45I could either get a boysy thing or a girlsy thing.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47But I think maybe a bit of girlsy bling.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51- You could get something ambidextrous.- Buy it with both hands.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55He's got all the lines! That's fantastic.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58And on that happy note, I think I'll throw to the auction.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04Gosh, this is exciting! How often do we get to come to Darlington?
0:25:04 > 0:25:05Not often.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08Nor to have the pleasure of being with
0:25:08 > 0:25:11Peter Robinson, at Thomas Watson & Co auctioneers.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18- Peter.- Hi, Tim. Good to see you. - Now, parallel rulers.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21How are you with parallel rulers from Birmingham?
0:25:21 > 0:25:23Well, it doesn't take me back to school.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Mine goes back a little bit further than that.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29A specialist piece of equipment for chart work or drawings.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32It's a nice, precise brass instrument with its box.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Box is a little bit untidy, but still a nice thing.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37It's in cast brass.
0:25:37 > 0:25:42It says UWW on it, which might be the Universal Woodworking Company...
0:25:42 > 0:25:44it's thought. What's it worth?
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Well, we've put an estimate of £20-£30 on it.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49They paid £23.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52You've put 20 to 30, so everybody's talking the same language.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Physically, with the thing in front of you,
0:25:55 > 0:25:59£20-£30 is not much for a nicely engineered piece of brass.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02- Absolutely.- Whether you really have a use for it or not is another matter.
0:26:02 > 0:26:03Anyway, there we are.
0:26:03 > 0:26:08Next is this truly miserable and rather pathetic music stand.
0:26:08 > 0:26:12I mean, honestly, it's the weediest thing I think I've ever seen.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Well, when it's all folded up it actually looks quite nice,
0:26:15 > 0:26:17if that makes any sense. This is an unusual item.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19It's a treen, it's a piece of wood.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23But when the more you unfold it, the more firmer it becomes,
0:26:23 > 0:26:26and how it would even take the weight of a sheet of music,
0:26:26 > 0:26:29- I don't know, because it is really delicate.- Yeah.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33- So what's the estimate? - 20 to 30.- £20-£30.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35And I've never seen one before,
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- but I just don't know what you're going to do with it.- No.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42Well, not use it because it'll get broken very easily. £30 they paid.
0:26:42 > 0:26:46Now, we come to what I think is their most promising item,
0:26:46 > 0:26:50which are these turned sycamore medicine bottle covers with
0:26:50 > 0:26:52- some bottles in it.- Yeah.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Sycamore and boxwood.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58Just typical of that travelling form of medicine, where you had to
0:26:58 > 0:27:01get around the countryside as a country GP.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05You want to protect the glass vessel with the precious drug in it.
0:27:05 > 0:27:09How do you do that? Well, you put it in a really snug, little wooden box.
0:27:09 > 0:27:12Indeed. It's a nice collection as well.
0:27:12 > 0:27:15They're a nice coloured wood.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- Yeah. Don't they look fantastic? - Well, they do. They make a great feature.
0:27:18 > 0:27:22- And what's your estimate?- Well, we are at 40-80.- How much? Is that all?
0:27:22 > 0:27:26I accept it's a modest estimate. It should be higher.
0:27:26 > 0:27:30- They must be worth £10 each, mustn't they?- They should be.- That's 150 quid.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32And if they make £20 each, that's £300.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- Our lot paid £100.- Well, I think they'll make profit.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38That's reassuring, because they're going to need it to
0:27:38 > 0:27:43help them through the misery of the music stand, in my view.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46- Yeah.- Ha-ha. Still, there's not much of a loss to be made on that.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48And I think there's a substantial gain to be
0:27:48 > 0:27:50made on the medicine bottles, I really like those.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52I can see them doing terribly well. In which case, they
0:27:52 > 0:27:56won't need the bonus buy, but let's go and have a look at it anyway.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00- OK, girls?- Yep, we're ready. - This is something, isn't it?
0:28:00 > 0:28:01Whatever has Phil found you here?
0:28:01 > 0:28:05Well, you gave him £147 to go off
0:28:05 > 0:28:07and get something dazzling for you.
0:28:07 > 0:28:10And, Phil, show us what you've done.
0:28:10 > 0:28:12I just want to see the look on their faces when I just...
0:28:12 > 0:28:15- Now, there are four of these, not just the one. Ready?- Yes.
0:28:17 > 0:28:18Oh, wow!
0:28:19 > 0:28:23- Now that's excitement if ever I saw it.- No, it's horror!
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Where on earth have you got them from?
0:28:26 > 0:28:28They're warehouse lights.
0:28:28 > 0:28:30Industrial's cool, it's the in thing.
0:28:30 > 0:28:32These are really good in London.
0:28:32 > 0:28:37- But we're in Darlington.- That's true.
0:28:37 > 0:28:40- I can feel a certain amount of...- Shock.- ..shock, horror.
0:28:40 > 0:28:42Are they really cool things?
0:28:42 > 0:28:46- OK, so how much did you spend? - Of your money.
0:28:46 > 0:28:51- Of OUR money.- These cost, four of them, £7.50 each.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54- Wow, really?- 30 squid. For the four.- For the four.
0:28:54 > 0:28:56And they're going to fly out.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59We just need people with vision, that's what we need.
0:28:59 > 0:29:04- The vision that I have.- Got a nice open prison, something like that.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07- This is where it's happening.- OK.
0:29:07 > 0:29:10My only worry, Phil, is what do you do about these bulbs, mate?
0:29:10 > 0:29:13- Where do you get a bulb like that? - Are they...
0:29:13 > 0:29:15You're just worrying yourself over detail now.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Really?
0:29:17 > 0:29:20- OK, fine. Lovely. OK, girls, you've got the message.- Yes.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23You don't have to pick them...at all, actually,
0:29:23 > 0:29:26but your moment will come after the sale of the first three items.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Let's find out whether Philip indeed is going to light up
0:29:29 > 0:29:32the auctioneer's life.
0:29:32 > 0:29:36Well, it just shows what a bright spark Philip Serrell is, doesn't it?
0:29:36 > 0:29:39Four floodlights like that. Do you rate them?
0:29:39 > 0:29:44Um...I don't know how to rate them. They look like industrial lights.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46- Floodlights.- Floodlights that have been taken off a building.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48I just don't quite get it.
0:29:48 > 0:29:52They're probably high wattage.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55All modern lighting now is eco, and get the costs down.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57So they'd be expensive to run and they probably don't work,
0:29:57 > 0:30:00and you don't know whether you can get replacement bulbs.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02So what's somebody in your audience, in a minute, going to
0:30:02 > 0:30:05- pay for those then, do you think? - Well,
0:30:05 > 0:30:07we've put an estimate of £20-£40 down.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10Whether we will get a bid or not is another matter.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Well, £30 was paid by Philip Serrell.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15He likes to push the envelope.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Anyway, that's it. Now, for the Blues.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21First up is the little toothpick.
0:30:21 > 0:30:22Because that's what it certainly is.
0:30:22 > 0:30:25It's been described as a bit of a manicure set and whatnot.
0:30:25 > 0:30:27It's nothing to do with nails, it's to do with teeth.
0:30:27 > 0:30:31It's a gentleman's toothpick. Definitely.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34And do you think it had a little ring on the end of it that
0:30:34 > 0:30:37- you'd have on a watch chain or something?- Yeah.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Either a ring or even a little seal end, with a bit of X in it,
0:30:40 > 0:30:42or something like that. To make it.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45It is gold and it's engine-turned, so
0:30:45 > 0:30:49it's been a bit finer when it first was made.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52- But, nevertheless, a nice little collectable.- Estimate of £30-£40.
0:30:52 > 0:30:55Perfect. £32 they paid. Excellent.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59Anyway, we are going to zoom off into the Cadillac department of life.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03- Do you think that's 1950s or 1930s? - I think it's late 1930s.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05The Cadillac goddess.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08This particular one, it's chrome.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11It's a little bit pitted, when you get up close to it.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15But it's still got a lot of presence. Still a fine-looking car mascot.
0:31:15 > 0:31:19And that's, again, something very desirable off the internet, isn't it?
0:31:19 > 0:31:22- Because that's where the collectors will come from.- Classic cars.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26- If one thing has survived the last recession, it's old cars.- Exactly.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29- So what's that mascot worth?- Well, we've put an estimate of £30-£50 on it.
0:31:29 > 0:31:34Brilliant. £55 paid. They may have paid just a tad too much.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Now, we've got a pair of spoons.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39What we always used to call berry spoons.
0:31:39 > 0:31:43- Do you still call them berry spoons, because they've got fruit on them? - Berry or fruit spoons.
0:31:43 > 0:31:47Once upon a time they were beautiful Georgian plain spoons, weren't they?
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- Yeah.- Absolutely no decoration on them.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53And then along came the Victorians, took the Georgian spoons
0:31:53 > 0:31:55- and slapped them up with their decorations.- Did their bit.
0:31:55 > 0:32:00And put them in a presentation box. The spoons are over 200 years old.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02But of course, looking as they are now,
0:32:02 > 0:32:04- they look more like 100 years old. - Exactly.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06So, what are they going to bring, those spoons?
0:32:06 > 0:32:10Well, we've put 50 to 80 on them. They should make that.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12- They should make more.- Very good.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Well, £100 is paid by the team.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18So, they may have paid, again, just a tad over the top.
0:32:18 > 0:32:21Overall, I have a funny feeling they'll need their bonus buy,
0:32:21 > 0:32:23so let's go and have a look at it.
0:32:24 > 0:32:28You've spent, you lovely ones, £187, OK.
0:32:28 > 0:32:33Which means that you gave Anita £113 of leftover lolly, which means
0:32:33 > 0:32:36she's gone out and bought something absolutely dramatic, haven't you, Anita?
0:32:36 > 0:32:39Show us your wares.
0:32:39 > 0:32:43- Oh, wow!- That's nice. - Julie, you're the expert.
0:32:43 > 0:32:48- I wanted to buy a piece of jewellery for us.- Yes.
0:32:48 > 0:32:53Now, butterfly brooches are very, very popular.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55This one is a nine carat gold
0:32:55 > 0:32:59and it is encrusted with diamonds
0:32:59 > 0:33:01- and sapphires.- Really?
0:33:01 > 0:33:05Well, maybe not "encrusted". Maybe, "splattered"...
0:33:05 > 0:33:06THEY LAUGH
0:33:06 > 0:33:10..with diamonds and sapphires, but we do have those precious stones,
0:33:10 > 0:33:15and we have a favourite shape. So, tell me what you think.
0:33:15 > 0:33:20- I'm going to hand over to Julie. - Thank you. Because we said we wanted some jewellery so...
0:33:21 > 0:33:24- That's really pretty. - And sapphires for the Blue team. - Yes.
0:33:24 > 0:33:28- What could be better? - I'd like that myself.
0:33:28 > 0:33:33It's the latter part of the 20th century, so it's not an early one.
0:33:33 > 0:33:37But we do have the precious metal and we do have the precious stones.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40- How much did it cost?- £80.
0:33:40 > 0:33:4280! Oh, that seems quite good.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45- It wasn't cheap.- No, but that seems quite good.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48- £80? Gold...- Gold.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51..sapphires and diamonds. And those diamonds are set in platinum, aren't they?
0:33:51 > 0:33:54- That's right.- Are they?! Wow!
0:33:54 > 0:33:56How much do you think it will go for in auction?
0:33:56 > 0:34:00Well, I think we have the chance
0:34:00 > 0:34:05of £20 profit, £10 profit.
0:34:05 > 0:34:09But it all depends on the buyers out there.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11- You've got your opinion. Yes? - Yes.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13Dwell on that, because right now let's find out what the
0:34:13 > 0:34:16auctioneer thinks about Anita's little brooch.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21There it is, look. One brooch.
0:34:21 > 0:34:26Yeah, one butterfly-shaped brooch, set with sapphires and diamonds.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29Nine carat gold, not 18.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31- But it's a pretty brooch.- Not old.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34- Not old, no.- Trying to be old.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36Trying to be old, trying to be Edwardian, late Victorian.
0:34:36 > 0:34:39But it's still quite well made.
0:34:39 > 0:34:42- What's the sort of estimate?- 40 to 80,
0:34:42 > 0:34:45piece of decorative nine carat jewellery.
0:34:45 > 0:34:47The cunning Anita paid £80 for it. She rates it.
0:34:47 > 0:34:50You only need to have a couple of girls in the room who
0:34:50 > 0:34:54- think it's a corker, and it could make £120.- It could do.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Lovely.- Little bit of competition. - Jolly good. You ready for the off?
0:34:57 > 0:35:01- Absolutely.- Feeling strong?- Ready to go.- Thanks, Peter.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05Well, Peter, I hope you're poised in position.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07It's time to take your rostrum.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Now, Sarah, Diana, this is the exciting moment.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17- You're on the edge, you're on the brink.- We're up for it.- Are you?
0:35:17 > 0:35:20- Yes.- What's your prediction as to profit today?
0:35:20 > 0:35:24- It could be a bit tricky, really. - Could be tricky?- Could be tricky.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26Got a total number in mind...
0:35:26 > 0:35:29I think we might be OK with two.
0:35:29 > 0:35:32I think the bottles might cause us a bit of a problem.
0:35:32 > 0:35:35OK, well, first up is the boxed ruler. And here it comes.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37Look how good that looks.
0:35:37 > 0:35:41Parallel ruler. There we are. £15 to start. At £15.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43For the parallel rule. 20, I'm bid.
0:35:43 > 0:35:4625. 30. At £30 at the back now.
0:35:46 > 0:35:49£30 in the doorway. 35 anywhere?
0:35:49 > 0:35:53At 30... 35, thank you. 40, sir. No.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55- £35.- Very good, eh?
0:35:55 > 0:35:5940 anywhere? Being sold on my right at £35.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03£35, you clever girl, is plus £12. That's a good start.
0:36:03 > 0:36:07- Now, the music stand. - The folding music stand there.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10Unusual little piece of wood.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13£10. 15 for it. For the folding music stand.
0:36:13 > 0:36:1715 bid. 20, do I hear anywhere for it? Very unusual lot.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19I've never seen one before. 20, thank you.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22At £20. The lady's bid now. At £20.
0:36:22 > 0:36:2425 for it? At £20.
0:36:24 > 0:36:28The lady at the back of the room, I'm taken at £20 for the lot. £20.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32£20 is minus £10. That's bad luck, but you're still plus 2.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35OK, now, this is your big number.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38Cross your legs, girls, here we go. Stand by for the ride.
0:36:38 > 0:36:42Good collection of treen medicine bottle holders here,
0:36:42 > 0:36:46and some with bottles. Opening at £65.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49At £65. 70, can I say?
0:36:49 > 0:36:51At £65. 70, I'm bid.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53At £70. 75. 80.

0:37:01 > 0:37:03At 110. 120 bid.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05130. 140.
0:37:05 > 0:37:0715... 160.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09150, I'm bid. 160, 170 in the room.
0:37:09 > 0:37:11Well done. That's more like it.
0:37:11 > 0:37:14190 on the net. At £190.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16Internet bidder now at £190.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20- Being sold to the internet at 190. - Yes!
0:37:20 > 0:37:23You clever old things. Was that predicted or was it predicted?
0:37:23 > 0:37:26Yes, it was predicted. You are plus £92.
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Now what are you going to do about these floodlights? You've got £92.
0:37:29 > 0:37:32That could be a winning score. You don't have to go with them.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35- I don't either.- Got to make a chance.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37- Yes or no?- Yes, we'll go with them.
0:37:37 > 0:37:41You're going to go with the bonus buy. We're going with the bonus buy!
0:37:41 > 0:37:44Floodlights. Four of them in the lot. Four of the lights together.
0:37:44 > 0:37:47£10 to start. At £10 for the lot.
0:37:47 > 0:37:49Now 15, I'm bid. 15 on my right.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52- 20, can I say? At £15.- Where's the internet?
0:37:52 > 0:37:54Gentleman's bid at £15.
0:37:54 > 0:37:5820 anywhere for them? There's four of them in the lot. Four of them.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01They're beautiful! Go on!
0:38:01 > 0:38:02..£15 all done.
0:38:02 > 0:38:04£15. Never mind, girls.
0:38:04 > 0:38:08You had a go. You're a couple of punters, you are. That's plus 77.
0:38:08 > 0:38:10Well done, chickens. That's good.
0:38:10 > 0:38:14That could be a winning score. £77. Yes?
0:38:14 > 0:38:16- Thank you.- It was all right, wasn't it?
0:38:24 > 0:38:27- OK, Ken, Julie. Now, your toothpick.- Yes.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29Cos that's what it is.
0:38:29 > 0:38:32I mean, there's been a lot of chat about massaging your cuticles.
0:38:32 > 0:38:36It's for picking food out of your gappy, old teeth.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38That was my ignorance, in fairness.
0:38:38 > 0:38:42No, no, no. Anyway, first up is the toothpick, and here it comes.
0:38:42 > 0:38:46Seven, the little nine carat gold engine-turned toothpick.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48This time, £15 to start.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01Nine carat gold. At £35.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03- You're in profit.- At £35, are we all finished?
0:39:03 > 0:39:07- We don't care. £35.- Sold at 35.
0:39:07 > 0:39:10- Is plus £3. - That's all right.- That's good.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12Now, here comes the mascot.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15The Cadillac goddess car mascot.
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Late 1930s.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19I have £25 to start.

0:39:41 > 0:39:45Being sold now at £95. Are we all done at £95?
0:39:45 > 0:39:48- £95 is plus £40.- Wonderful!
0:39:48 > 0:39:50Now, here comes the spoons.
0:39:50 > 0:39:53Very good condition. London, 1810. £40.

0:39:56 > 0:39:5850. 55.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10Gentleman on my right at £75.

0:40:12 > 0:40:15£75 is £25 light,
