0:00:02 > 0:00:07Today, we are in Oswestry, on the English-Welsh border.

0:00:07 > 0:00:11This place has had a turbulent history, having been fought

0:00:11 > 0:00:15over by successive armies over the years for possession.

0:00:15 > 0:00:19But today, we are not looking for trouble. Oh, no, we are

0:00:19 > 0:00:21looking for treasure. So...

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Let's go bargain hunting, yeah!

0:00:48 > 0:00:53Two opposing sides slugging it out round these parts is nothing new,

0:00:53 > 0:00:54though.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57Let's head over to the battle ground, I mean the fairground,

0:00:57 > 0:00:59and have a sneak peek at what's coming up.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04The Reds drawn to the more bizarre bargain.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06This is not the kind of thing that I would buy...

0:01:06 > 0:01:09- but it is really cool! - Yeah, retro, isn't it?

0:01:09 > 0:01:12And the Blues are determined to splash their cash.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14I mean, we want something a little bit different

0:01:14 > 0:01:16and a little bit more money.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- 45?- Not enough, is it?- No, it isn't.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Let's meet the teams.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26Today, on the Red team, we have brothers - Kevin and Adam.

0:01:26 > 0:01:30And for the Blues, we have good friends - Issidy and Betty.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- Hello, everyone. - ALL: Hello.- Hello, hello.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35Now, is there any sibling rivalry at all between you two?

0:01:35 > 0:01:38- Not at all.- We're like best mates, basically.- Well, isn't that nice?

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Now, Kevin, you get up to all sorts of things,

0:01:41 > 0:01:44including something called bocking, tell me about that.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47It's jumping stilts. You can jump about six or seven feet in the air.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49It's like a mobile trampoline everywhere you go.

0:01:49 > 0:01:51But they're attached to your legs.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54I clearly have had a very sheltered and protected life cos

0:01:54 > 0:01:56I've never heard of bocking before, but it sounds fantastic.

0:01:56 > 0:01:59- It is brilliant. - Now, you are a keen photographer.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Whenever I can, I go out and about, take photos of landscape shots

0:02:02 > 0:02:04and quite conceptual shots as well.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06I'll see things that I'll go, "Yeah, that's quite crazy."

0:02:06 > 0:02:09And I'll mess around with aperture, the shot speeds.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- Is he good at it?- He is, he's amazing.- Well, he sounds amazing.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15You've got all the patter and enthusiasm for it.

0:02:15 > 0:02:19- Now, Adam, you have a high-octane, two-wheel hobby.- Yes, I do.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21- What do you get up to? - Motorcycle racing.

0:02:21 > 0:02:23So, what do you like about motor biking?

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Speed, cornering, that kind of thing.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28More of the cornering, passing - I like to get my elbow down,

0:02:28 > 0:02:30- helmet down, that kind of thing. - Do you?

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- How fast do you go on these bikes? - I've been 172mph.

0:02:33 > 0:02:37- You never have!- Yep.- Not on the A34, though.- No, on a track.- On a track.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41So, bocking, high-speed motor bicycling,

0:02:41 > 0:02:43are you two just a pair of adrenaline junkies?

0:02:43 > 0:02:46- I think that is probably the word for it, yeah.- Do you collect anything?

0:02:46 > 0:02:49- Helmets.- Do you?- Yeah. - What, signed ones?

0:02:49 > 0:02:51- Yeah, signed ones from TT, that kind of thing.- Yeah.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Some of those can be worth a lot of money, can't they?

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Well, thank you for coming and joining us. Good luck.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59- Now, girls, you have been friends for a few years.- 30?

0:02:59 > 0:03:02- Yes, indeed.- About 30, yes. - Is it?- Yes.- How did you meet?

0:03:02 > 0:03:03We met in WI, didn't we?

0:03:03 > 0:03:08- We did, yes.- Indeed.- For our sins. - But we have a lot of those.- Yes.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12Now, Issidy, these boys are awfully good at motor bicycling,

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- and you are no stranger to two wheels, are you?- No.

0:03:15 > 0:03:18When I was teaching in London, I had a Francis Barnett 197,

0:03:18 > 0:03:22which I drove every morning over Albert Bridge to go to school,

0:03:22 > 0:03:26- in a duffel coat, Wellington boots and a hat, you know, skid lid.- Yes.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29And I used to go home down the King's Road, Chelsea.

0:03:29 > 0:03:33And one night I was late going home, so I was going quite fast.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36And I realised there was a police car after me.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39- Yes. So you went faster. - Yes, of course I did.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41- You tried to out run them. - Well, yes.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42It was quite easy in the King's Road,

0:03:42 > 0:03:44because you go in and out of the traffic.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46- Of course! Weaving...- Yes.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49- But they caught me at the traffic light.- Oh, my!

0:03:49 > 0:03:51- I didn't dare go through the red. - No, quite.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53And so they got their window down

0:03:53 > 0:03:57and I took off my helmet to find out what they were saying to me

0:03:57 > 0:04:01and one of them looked at me and said, "Good God, it's a woman!"

0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Yeah.- I know. They let me off. - That is a marvellous story.- I know.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Now, Betty, you are a farmer's wife. - I am indeed.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Until you retired from the farm. What do you like doing now?

0:04:12 > 0:04:17Well, as I say, I'm in the WI and I like my craft - knitting and sewing.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20And I cook and flower arranging and things like that.

0:04:20 > 0:04:24You like to combine your interest in gardening and knitting, don't you?

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Well, I enter the county show, which we have once a year.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30We just had one this year, which I knitted vegetables for.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32- You knit vegetables?- I do indeed.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35What is your favourite vegetable? What do you like knitting most?

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Carrot or the beetroot. Mushroom.

0:04:38 > 0:04:40What else do you knit, apart from vegetables?

0:04:40 > 0:04:42- Well, knitted cakes.- You knit cakes?

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- Do go out a lot, Betty? - Why yes, I do.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48- It doesn't take long to knit a cake. - Does it not?- No.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Oh, how silly of me, of course it doesn't.

0:04:51 > 0:04:54Now, all you need is the £300. There you go, £300.

0:04:54 > 0:04:57You know the rules. Your experts await. And off you go!

0:04:57 > 0:04:59And very, very good luck.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03Well, I've never seen any knitted cakes and vegetables.

0:05:03 > 0:05:08But I do like a slice of date and 'wool-nut,' as it happens. Ha!

0:05:08 > 0:05:10Now, we have got two very glamorous experts who will be

0:05:10 > 0:05:12helping our team out today.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14She's no soft touch, though, it's...

0:05:16 > 0:05:17And for the Blues,

0:05:17 > 0:05:20wild horses wouldn't drag her from a bargain, it's...

0:05:26 > 0:05:29What sort of thing do you think you might go for?

0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Well, we thought of quirky things, didn't we?- Yes.

0:05:32 > 0:05:37- Old agricultural implements. See, Betty is a farmer's wife.- Right.

0:05:37 > 0:05:42- So maybe a bit of kitchenalia, Betty?- Yes, I think so.- Lovely.

0:05:42 > 0:05:43What about you, Reds?

0:05:43 > 0:05:46- You are quite daredevil-y, aren't you?- That's right.

0:05:46 > 0:05:51So we're looking for on-the-edge, cool 'mantiques?'

0:05:51 > 0:05:54- Yeah, that is a good word, I like that.- All right.- Colourful.

0:05:54 > 0:05:56Colourful? Very like your earrings.

0:05:56 > 0:05:59Are you flirting, Christina?

0:05:59 > 0:06:02Well, come on, the world is our oyster. Let's get going.

0:06:02 > 0:06:03Let's go.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Your 60 minutes, teams, starts now.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11Let's go! Right, blimey.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13OK, so, we've got some...

0:06:13 > 0:06:17- Shall we go left first?- Yes.- Yes.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19Those plates aren't worth any money, are they?

0:06:19 > 0:06:21He doesn't hang about, does he?

0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Number plates, aren't they? - Yeah, I know,

0:06:23 > 0:06:26- but that's not something that someone would go for?- Potentially.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28I mean, they are cool, aren't they?

0:06:28 > 0:06:30So what have we got? We've got one, too, three...

0:06:30 > 0:06:34You could almost make a collage or display out of them, couldn't you?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Obviously, there are a few people in Ontario

0:06:36 > 0:06:39who are missing their number plates.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43- Do you like those?- It's different anyway. It is something different.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46- It is.- It is something you don't normally see.- No, exactly.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48I mean, they are very 'mantique-y.'

0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Shall we ask a price on them? Do want to find out?- Yep.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54- Where is our chap? Hello. - Hello.- Hello, hello, hello.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56What are we thinking price-wise on your number plates?

0:06:56 > 0:06:58How many are there?

0:06:58 > 0:07:02So, you've got 1969, 1972.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06- 30, 40 years old. - Are they all Canadian?

0:07:06 > 0:07:08These are all Canadian and some...

0:07:08 > 0:07:10"Keep it beautiful."

0:07:10 > 0:07:13- These are from my partner.- Right.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15She lived over there in a previous life.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19A previous life, so she has been rein-CAR-nated, has she?

0:07:19 > 0:07:24- I'm looking for probably about 18 for the lot.- £18 for the lot.

0:07:24 > 0:07:28- What are your thoughts, chaps? - 15 and we'll have them, I'd say.

0:07:28 > 0:07:32- Go in at 12!- 12 I'll do.- 12, there we go. Hang on a second.

0:07:32 > 0:07:36Let's just talk about the bargaining before we do it. Lesson number one.

0:07:36 > 0:07:40- £12, there we go. Are you happy? - Yeah.- Shake the man's hand.

0:07:40 > 0:07:41- Brilliant, thank you.- Thank you.

0:07:41 > 0:07:43Kevin jumped in a bit quick there.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46It'll be all that bocking he does.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49But still, that collection of Canadian car plates was theirs

0:07:49 > 0:07:52before you could say maple syrup. Well done, chaps.

0:07:52 > 0:07:53Blues, you are on catch-up.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56- That would be quite nice. - The agate brooch?

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Agate sells quite well.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01The bad news is, though, that it is a brooch,

0:08:01 > 0:08:04and brooches are a little bit uncommercial at the moment.

0:08:04 > 0:08:08- Oh, really?- Yeah.- We'll move on, I think.- Yes, move on.

0:08:08 > 0:08:12- Nice, isn't it?- Well, I think it is nice.- Not particularly old, though.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15No, no, no, no.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17- All right, then, we leave it?- Move on?

0:08:17 > 0:08:20You have to work hard to impress Kate, ladies,

0:08:20 > 0:08:22she is quick to diss, this Miss Bliss,

0:08:22 > 0:08:23if she thinks something is a miss.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26- So, we're seven minutes down and we spent...- £12.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Last of the big spenders - I like it, I like it.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31The Reds sure are motoring after that first buy,

0:08:31 > 0:08:33but I think Adam was more of a biker boy.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36What do you think about that? It has got a motorbike on it.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39- Not really a sports bike.- Surely the naked lady makes up for that.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42- We'll keep that in mind, I reckon. - All right, keep it in mind.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44I'm sure you will, she is very naked.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Try and keep things decent, thank you, Christina.

0:08:46 > 0:08:49Let's go back to the respectable Blues.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52Do you know, this was on the television the other day.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54- Oh, yes, I've got one of those. - Did you see that?- That's very nice.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59- It is nice, isn't it? Would that make money? I don't know.- Oh, I think so.

0:08:59 > 0:09:01Where's Kate when you need her, eh?

0:09:01 > 0:09:04- For your garden, for your outside tap or anything.- Hm.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06Uh-oh, here she is.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09- I would use that as a paper weight. - What have you got, ladies?

0:09:09 > 0:09:14- I have one.- Do you?- Yes, I do. - Like this?- Yes.- I've got one.

0:09:14 > 0:09:15Is it for a brewery or whatever?

0:09:15 > 0:09:19I think it is from a barrel, you're absolutely right, Betty.

0:09:19 > 0:09:24- Yes.- It is a brass tap.- It has been reduced to 15, it was 30.

0:09:24 > 0:09:27- I think we should think about that. - You rather like that?- Yes, I do.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31- Well, it is different, isn't it? - Don't you like it?- I do like it.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33- At a price.- You don't have to say you do.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36- I'm not sure how commercial it is. - Right.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40And again, I don't think it has tapped your barrel, has it, Kate?

0:09:40 > 0:09:43It you both like it, there's no reason why we shouldn't buy it.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45But what you have got to ask yourself is,

0:09:45 > 0:09:48- who is going to buy it at the auction?- Quite.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52- Good question.- Probably I would. - Probably somebody like you.

0:09:52 > 0:09:57There are people who collect brewing memorabilia, certainly, but I don't

0:09:57 > 0:10:01think I'd want to pay very much if we're going to make a profit.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02So what would you say?

0:10:02 > 0:10:06Well, I am going to be really cheeky and save maybe a fiver.

0:10:06 > 0:10:10But it depends what the lady... They're nodding. Is five OK?

0:10:10 > 0:10:12Yeah, but because it is for you.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15It's not very much money. Shall we take the plunge?

0:10:15 > 0:10:18- Yes, I think we should take the plunge.- Shall we do it, Betty?

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- We'll try it.- We'll do it. For £5? - Yes.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24- I hope you do well with it. - Great. Well done, ladies.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26Well, that is certainly something different.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28I don't think I've ever bought a brass tap.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31Well done, Blues. I am always being tapped for a fiver, me.

0:10:31 > 0:10:35So two rather intriguing first buys.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37The trumpet? I am actually up for the trumpet.

0:10:37 > 0:10:40I'm into electro swing, like, so much.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42What on earth is electro swing?

0:10:42 > 0:10:47It's like a 1930s jazz and electro beat in the background.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51I'm not sure that there'd be a huge amount of market for it.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53We've got a bit of welding that needs going on there.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55- I reckon we don't go for that. - All right.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56- It's down to you.- That's fine.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59We've only got part of the way round, we might see another one.

0:10:59 > 0:11:01- Yeah?- Yeah.

0:11:01 > 0:11:05Well, you are hardly treading a traditional path here, Reds.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08You'll be looking at that old dentist's chair next.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10What about this thing over here? That looks quite cool, doesn't it?

0:11:10 > 0:11:12I was only joking.

0:11:12 > 0:11:16It is the dentist's chair. Look, it's got adjustable arms

0:11:16 > 0:11:18and a nice head rest so you feel comfortable.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20It's got a good history, by the looks of things.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24If you lift that up, then you can push that down.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26And this all the way up.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28That all the way up. Do you know what?

0:11:28 > 0:11:30I know this sounds completely ridiculous,

0:11:30 > 0:11:33this is not the kind of thing that I would buy, but it's really cool!

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Yeah, retro, isn't it? Yeah.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37I don't know who on earth would buy it.

0:11:37 > 0:11:41As I said, mate, this is your turn to pick. You decide on this one.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44- I've got no say.- Is it comfortable? Let's try it out.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47The words comfortable and dentist's chair don't really go together.

0:11:47 > 0:11:52- There go. Lie back. - A nice massage.- Yeah, thank you.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56- Comfy?- It is, actually.- Is it? - A bit damp, but...

0:11:56 > 0:11:59- What do you think? - If we can get a nice price on it.

0:11:59 > 0:12:03- Yeah, definitely. - Gentlemen, what is your best price?

0:12:03 > 0:12:05- Give me 60 quid.- Yeah?

0:12:05 > 0:12:08I have to say, I'm not sure it's going to make you any money,

0:12:08 > 0:12:12- but it can get more random than a dentist's chair. Yeah?- Yeah.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Do it at 60?- 60? - Shake the man's hand.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19As the Reds close their second surreal deal,

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I'm counting on the Blues to bring us back to sanity.

0:12:21 > 0:12:25- 242, isn't it?- Really?

0:12:25 > 0:12:28- This is a pussycat? - No, it's not, it's a dog.

0:12:28 > 0:12:29Good grief.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33- How much were they asking for that? - 135.- Oh, really?- Yes.- Oh, gosh.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37- You know, however hard I try, I can't think of it as a pussycat.- No.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39Whether it is a pussy, or a pooch or a sheep,

0:12:39 > 0:12:41if you are not buying, move on.

0:12:44 > 0:12:49- What do you think of that?- Very nice.- I love the design there.

0:12:49 > 0:12:54- They're foxgloves. They are pretty, aren't they?- Is it a biscuit barrel?

0:12:54 > 0:12:56- It is a biscuit barrel.- Yes.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Is that this sort of thing, as a farmer's wife,

0:12:58 > 0:13:00- you'd have in your cupboard? - I'd definitely have that.

0:13:00 > 0:13:03This is just the sort of thing, this biscuit barrel,

0:13:03 > 0:13:04my mother would've had.

0:13:04 > 0:13:08I would say the best thing about it is possibly the shape.

0:13:08 > 0:13:14- Very unusual.- It is. It is very Art Deco in shape, very '30s.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17- On a base like that. Now, we've got...- What does it say?

0:13:17 > 0:13:21- ..the factory on the bottom. Royal Staffordshire Pottery.- Right.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25- By Wilkinson.- Yes, it is. - Who were a very well-known factory.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29They made this sort of chintzy ware and the 1920s and '30s,

0:13:29 > 0:13:33- which was incredibly fashionable. - That is quite nice inside.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35We've got the bolts from the handle there,

0:13:35 > 0:13:37which looks original, actually.

0:13:37 > 0:13:41But the shape is the best thing about it.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44- Very different.- Can we look at it on the table? Set it on...

0:13:44 > 0:13:46- Shall I stand it up?- Yes, on there.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49If I put it on here, what do you think?

0:13:49 > 0:13:51- How does it look? - Very nice, actually. Yes.

0:13:51 > 0:13:55- We've got £40 on there. - I think that is a reasonable price.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59- Do you?- Yes.- Do you know, I don't. - Oh, right.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02Have you seen this show, Issy? You have got to haggle!

0:14:02 > 0:14:04That is a reasonable fair price,

0:14:04 > 0:14:09but I was thinking more sort of 20, 25.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Can you do us an offer on it?

0:14:10 > 0:14:14- 30?- OK, what do we think of that? - Well, I'd like it.

0:14:14 > 0:14:17Would you pay 30 for it, though?

0:14:17 > 0:14:18Hmm...

0:14:18 > 0:14:19Think carefully, Betty.

0:14:19 > 0:14:25- Perhaps 25.- 28.- Would you?- Yeah.

0:14:25 > 0:14:2828 might give us a bit more of a chance.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31- BOTH: Yes.- Time is ticking. I think, perhaps, make a decision?

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- Well, I like it. And you like it.- I do.

0:14:33 > 0:14:38Right, we've got a deal then. £28? Lovely. Thank you very much.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40- Thank you.- Great.

0:14:40 > 0:14:43She is a smart cookie, that Kate. Good on you, girls.

0:14:43 > 0:14:47It's two items each and both experts are taking time for a team talk.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Ladies, we are doing jolly well. We have got about a half an hour left.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52We've got two buys.

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- And we've spent 28 and a fiver.- Yes. - So we've spent 33...- Not enough.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59- Not enough?- No. - We'll have to spend more than that.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01It's a similar story with the Reds.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Spent £60 on the chair and £12 on the number plates,

0:15:04 > 0:15:08so £72. We've got LOADS of money to spend!

0:15:08 > 0:15:09- Right, get looking.- Spend big.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11We must have a big spend up.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14- A big spend!- Yes. - OK, let's do a big spend.

0:15:14 > 0:15:16- What do you think, down there?- Yes.

0:15:16 > 0:15:18But spend it wisely, eh, teams?

0:15:18 > 0:15:20While they hunt on,

0:15:20 > 0:15:24I want to flag out one investment that could bring a big return.

0:15:24 > 0:15:29You come across lots of these little leather cases in fairs like this.

0:15:29 > 0:15:33And they inevitably contain one thing and one thing alone,

0:15:33 > 0:15:36and that is a stick pin.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40It was generally used to secure your tie.

0:15:40 > 0:15:45What we've got on the end of this gold pin is a flag.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49And if I put it on my sleeve, you can see just how beautiful

0:15:49 > 0:15:53it looks when it is applied to a bit of material.

0:15:55 > 0:16:00Up the flagpole that you see is an incrustation of diamonds,

0:16:00 > 0:16:04which is set into platinum, which make that flag staff special.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07The flag itself flutters away,

0:16:07 > 0:16:11and that has been enamelled on top of gold.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15Then, it has got, in rubies, two diagonal lines

0:16:15 > 0:16:19and a short section of rubies at the top.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21What we've got here is a stick pin

0:16:21 > 0:16:26that identifies just how smart you are as a yachtsman.

0:16:26 > 0:16:31In the 19th century, the craze for yachting was taking off, and

0:16:31 > 0:16:37yachtsmen were all rich by virtue of needing the money to buy a yacht.

0:16:37 > 0:16:40And they only wanted to associate with other rich people,

0:16:40 > 0:16:42and they formed all sorts of clubs.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45Each of the clubs designed their own flags,

0:16:45 > 0:16:48and that is it the difficult thing to decode.

0:16:48 > 0:16:53We've got a date, which is 1878, and the initial R.

0:16:53 > 0:16:54What is it worth?

0:16:54 > 0:16:59Well, in a fair like this, you could buy it for £65.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02But if you could unscramble that lot, I tell you,

0:17:02 > 0:17:07this thing could turn out to be a serious winner. Oh, yes.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13Back to the shopping.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16The Blue team want to win, and they want to spend serious cash.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17The ladies make a great team

0:17:17 > 0:17:21and they have actually got a really good eye between them,

0:17:21 > 0:17:23I think. They are picking out some great items.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26- I don't think we are spending enough money, actually.- No.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30- Quite honestly.- But we're not ones for spending a lot of money, are we?

0:17:30 > 0:17:33I've been round the block enough times to know that you have

0:17:33 > 0:17:36got to speculate to accumulate, Blues.

0:17:36 > 0:17:40Now, our refreshingly random Reds have spotted something that has been

0:17:40 > 0:17:42a lot further than around the block and more than a few times.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45- What do you think about this?- Again, it's different.- It is different.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48- And that is the kind of theme that we've got so far.- You're telling me!

0:17:48 > 0:17:50The thing that I love about it...

0:17:50 > 0:17:52You've got F Burgess, obviously who it belonged to,

0:17:52 > 0:17:56Kolar Gold Field, Mysore State, South India.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59Obviously, it's been out to some sort of gold mine.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02And this is sort of early 20th century if not late 19th century.

0:18:02 > 0:18:03So it has certainly travelled.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06I love the fact that it has got all the wonderful...

0:18:06 > 0:18:08- I love the stickers. - Yeah, stickers on here.

0:18:08 > 0:18:11So Bombay to Liverpool.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13For Anchor Line.

0:18:13 > 0:18:16RMS, so and so. Cabin number, so and so.

0:18:16 > 0:18:19But you are finding that because these are really quite popular that

0:18:19 > 0:18:24we do have to be quite careful about forgeries or basically replicas.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27But it has got a wonderful old mend here.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Let's have a look inside and see what we can find out.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32That is where it has been fixed on there.

0:18:32 > 0:18:34Would something like that eat into the price a lot?

0:18:34 > 0:18:39Well, if it was a trunk, I would say £30 to £50.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41With this inscription, I think that's brilliant.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44So often I say, "Condition, condition, condition," but the

0:18:44 > 0:18:47fact that it has travelled so far and has got these wonderful scars...

0:18:47 > 0:18:50- Someone has kept it alive.- Exactly.

0:18:50 > 0:18:53And if only it could talk, that would be wonderful, wouldn't it?

0:18:53 > 0:18:57- The stories it could tell. So, do you like it?- Definitely.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01And if you both like it, that is something you can buy together.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03- Mutual decision.- We both agree.

0:19:03 > 0:19:04This is our last thing.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08I think if you are standing a chance of making a profit on it,

0:19:08 > 0:19:10you really want to try and get it for under £100.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12I think it is fab, really cool.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14I think the history behind it is brilliant.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18- Who's going to do the bargaining? - I'll have a go.- Go all at 'em.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20Go on, you can do it. Bat your eyelids.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23Ooh! Do you think he'll do it? Is he good at bargaining?

0:19:23 > 0:19:25He's all right, yeah. He's got the gift of the gab.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- Oh, has he?- Yeah. - Good, we sent the right one.

0:19:27 > 0:19:30While Adam gets on the well-travelled case, the Blues are

0:19:30 > 0:19:33covering a lot of ground themselves in the hunt for their number three.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36- We've got to buy, buy, buy. - We've got to get going, haven't we?

0:19:36 > 0:19:38We have got to get going.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42I mean, we want something a little bit and a little bit more money.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45- How much is the trumpet?- I don't think it is going to be much, is it?

0:19:45 > 0:19:4745.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49- Not enough, is it?- No, it isn't.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51We want something bigger than that, Issidy.

0:19:51 > 0:19:53I know, I know, I'm just looking at it.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56What were they asking for those milk churns?

0:19:56 > 0:19:58I didn't look. They were rusted.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00Oh, right.

0:20:00 > 0:20:02These Blues are naughty.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Now, how has Adam got on with that case?

0:20:04 > 0:20:07I spoke to the lady and I managed to get it down to £100.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10- It was 125, so...- Brilliant, well d... And have we done a deal?

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- Yeah.- Oh, you have! You bought it?- Yeah.- We're done!

0:20:14 > 0:20:17Well done, guys. Perfect. Brilliant.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Now hang on a second, we bought a load of old car plates,

0:20:20 > 0:20:23we bought a random old dentist's chair and we bought an old trunk.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Good skills.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29It may be off-the-wall, Reds, but you've got your three buys.

0:20:29 > 0:20:33Now, my level-headed Blues, it is up to you find your up third item.

0:20:33 > 0:20:37- You don't like this?- No.- You don't? - No.- Well, you've got to have...

0:20:37 > 0:20:40- Cos I've chosen one, you haven't choose one.- 75.

0:20:40 > 0:20:41Is it as much as that?

0:20:41 > 0:20:45It's a shooting stick, so you take it with you shooting

0:20:45 > 0:20:48and when you wanted to rest your pins, open it out.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50It is quite nice cos it has got this little sort of cane work

0:20:50 > 0:20:53seat, which is a little bit different.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56The only thing that I am concerned about is do you see the brass

0:20:56 > 0:21:00- ware on it?- Oh, yes. - That has been cleaned off.- Right.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03So although the bamboo, which is what this is, is rather nice,

0:21:03 > 0:21:07I'm a bit concerned about the metal mounts,

0:21:07 > 0:21:10because they have either been cleaned off or they are later.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12I think they have probably been cleaned off.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15All the wear and patina has been removed

0:21:15 > 0:21:19- because somebody has polished it too hard. It has cleaned it off.- Right.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- Which is sad because it is not in its original condition.- Hm.

0:21:23 > 0:21:26But there is no harm in asking what their best price is.

0:21:26 > 0:21:30Hey there, what is the best price on the shooting stick?

0:21:30 > 0:21:31- 55.- 55.- 55.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33That's not too bad.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36- What do you think, ladies? - I think it's a done deal.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38- Thank you very much indeed. - Pleasure.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40A pleasure also.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Thank you for being so...waiting for us.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44- Lovely. We got there in the end. - Yes.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48- We did get there in the end, you're right.- Yes.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51Time's up. Let's check out what the Red team bought.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53The first crop was a bumper one -

0:21:53 > 0:21:56a set of Canadian number plates for £12.

0:21:56 > 0:22:01The dealer then extracted £60 from them for this dentist's chair,

0:22:01 > 0:22:03leaving quite a cavity.

0:22:03 > 0:22:08Finally, they bought an old travelling case for £100.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10- Now, which is your favourite item?- I'd say...

0:22:10 > 0:22:13- The chair.- The chair is your favourite?- A bit different.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15- Does your brother agree with that? - Oh, yeah, definitely.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Which piece will bring the biggest profit?

0:22:17 > 0:22:20I'd say the number plates due to the fact they're the cheapest.

0:22:20 > 0:22:21We could get some nice money out of that.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Do you agree with that?- Yeah. - They are so agreeable, these boys.

0:22:24 > 0:22:27And they're brothers. I wish I was like this with my sister.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29OK. How much did you spend?

0:22:29 > 0:22:30- 172.- 172.

0:22:30 > 0:22:35- I'd like £128, please, of leftover lolly.- Fantastic.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37- Straight across to the woman - who knows. Thank you very much.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39What are you going to do?

0:22:39 > 0:22:41The one thing we didn't get was something motorbike-y,

0:22:41 > 0:22:43so, I don't know, I'll go and look for something.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45Only if it is profitable, please!

0:22:45 > 0:22:48- OK, I'll do my best.- OK. Anyway, good luck with that.

0:22:48 > 0:22:51Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought, eh?

0:22:51 > 0:22:54The Blues kicked off with a barrel tap for £5.

0:22:56 > 0:23:01They kept the barrel theme going with a biscuit barrel for £28.

0:23:01 > 0:23:06Finally, they gave it both barrels with a shooting stick for £55.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11- Now, was that good fun, that shopping, or not?- Great fun.- Yes.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14- Great fun, we did enjoy it. - Which is your favourite piece?

0:23:14 > 0:23:16- The tap, it's a brass tap. - That is your favourite.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18Do agree with that, Betty?

0:23:18 > 0:23:21No, I think the shooting stick is my favourite.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24- OK, is that going to bring the biggest profit?- Yes.- Yes, it is.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28We have got a very firm, very firm prediction there.

0:23:28 > 0:23:32- And how much did you spend?- 88. - I can't believe that.

0:23:32 > 0:23:36Two girls on the razzle and only spending £88.

0:23:36 > 0:23:40- Well, we don't spend a lot. - You clearly don't spend a lot.

0:23:40 > 0:23:45OK, so I would like to £212 of leftover lolly, please.

0:23:45 > 0:23:50- You don't like passing this over, do you?- No. It's a lot.- Isn't it a lot?

0:23:50 > 0:23:54- I know.- I won't hang onto it for long cos it goes straight over

0:23:54 > 0:23:58- to her indoors, who's going to go out, I hope, and spend the lot.- Yes!

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Do you know, Issidy and Betty were really disappointed that they

0:24:01 > 0:24:04didn't spend more. We just didn't find the right things.

0:24:04 > 0:24:07- But you might. - I'm going for a big spend.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Are you? So exciting!

0:24:09 > 0:24:12Anyway, let's trot off quick to the auction, eh?

0:24:26 > 0:24:29Well, I can't tell you what an incredible pleasure it is to

0:24:29 > 0:24:33wind my way back to the hills of Malvern to be with Phil.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35How old are you, old boy?

0:24:35 > 0:24:36I am very, very well. I hope you are.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39I am extremely fit and very pleased to be here.

0:24:39 > 0:24:44Kevin and Adam will be excited to see your opinion on these

0:24:44 > 0:24:46nice number plate jobbies.

0:24:46 > 0:24:50I'm not sure that there is too much demand for Canadian number plates

0:24:50 > 0:24:53in Greater Malvern and its environs, really.

0:24:53 > 0:24:54I don't know what you'd do with them.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58- I suppose you'd bang them on the wall of your garage.- Yeah, exactly.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01I can see them nailed up in an attractive display.

0:25:01 > 0:25:04All I am saying to you, old boy, is can you make more than £12?

0:25:04 > 0:25:07- Yeah, I'd hope so. - You would think so.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10- £3 each and it shows a profit. - Exactly.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13You have done the mathematics just like that, they don't call you

0:25:13 > 0:25:16- electric for nothing.- Sharp.- Sharp, that's it. Now, the dentist's chair.

0:25:16 > 0:25:20This thing is, today, supposed to be very,

0:25:20 > 0:25:22very on trend for young people.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25Well, it is just condition, isn't it? I think is 40 quid's worth.

0:25:25 > 0:25:28Do you? They paid £60. I don't know.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31If it's online, that is going to be your big hope, I reckon.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34Now, moving on to our travels once more.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37Travelled to Mysore, Southern India - very, very hot.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39And then it came back, look,

0:25:39 > 0:25:42with the Anchor Line from Bombay to Liverpool. How cool is that?

0:25:42 > 0:25:44It is a nice thing.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47I think the only thing that is going to help us sell that is we have

0:25:47 > 0:25:50got another trunk in this sale that is sort of just a little bit better.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54The one that you brought in, Tim, might do £30 to £50.

0:25:54 > 0:25:58- They paid 100.- Oh, right. OK.

0:25:58 > 0:26:00- A bit of variance there, isn't there?- There we go.

0:26:00 > 0:26:03We'll shut that one up. They paid £100.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06You are reckoning £30 to £50. They could be torpedoed by that.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08In which case, they are going to need their bonus buy.

0:26:08 > 0:26:11So let's shuffle off and have a look at it.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15£172 you have spent

0:26:15 > 0:26:19and you gave Christina £128 of leftover lolly.

0:26:19 > 0:26:23- OK, Christina, what did you spend it on?- I bought you...

0:26:23 > 0:26:25- Oh!- ..a trumpet.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28And not only did she buy you a trumpet,

0:26:28 > 0:26:32she bought you a trumpet...case.

0:26:32 > 0:26:34- Brilliant.- Cos we did look at one that didn't have a case.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38- OK, admittedly, the box is... - Tattered.- It has seen better days.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41- It has obviously travelled. - It has been used a lot.- Yes.

0:26:41 > 0:26:45But we have got a great mark on it. Clippertone Excelsior Sonorous

0:26:45 > 0:26:48Class A Hawkes & Son, great musical name there.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50And I know that you love your music, so there we go.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53- What do you think about it? - It's different. I didn't expect that.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56I thought it'd be a bit of jewellery or something.

0:26:56 > 0:26:57That is very different.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59And I mean, if you are into your music,

0:26:59 > 0:27:01why go and buy the brand-new example from the music shop,

0:27:01 > 0:27:03which would cost you several hundred pounds,

0:27:03 > 0:27:06when you can come to auction and buy a practice instrument

0:27:06 > 0:27:09or something to have fun with modestly.

0:27:09 > 0:27:13- For £38.- That is what she spent, £38.- Yeah.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16- I'd love to know if it still works. - Go on, Adam.- Go on, Adam.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19- HE BLOWS, NO SOUND EMITTED - Nice one(!)

0:27:19 > 0:27:22OK, you don't pick now, right? The best thing to do, though,

0:27:22 > 0:27:24at this moment in time, is to ask her

0:27:24 > 0:27:28- how much she thinks it is going to make.- What do you reckon?

0:27:28 > 0:27:30I would hope it would make £30 to £50.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33I think the fact that it has got its box with it is great.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35And I think it has got everything going for it.

0:27:35 > 0:27:37Well anyway, you don't pick now,

0:27:37 > 0:27:39you pick after the sale of the first three items.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41Right now, let's find out from the auctioneer

0:27:41 > 0:27:44whether Christina is hitting the right note.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47Well, Phil, you like to blow your own trumpet a bit, don't you?

0:27:47 > 0:27:49- I do, Tim.- Give us a blow.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51- HE BLOWS, NO SOUND EMITTED - That's terrible!

0:27:51 > 0:27:54- You have a go.- Absolutely terrible.

0:27:54 > 0:27:57TRUMPET BLOWS, OFF TUNE

0:27:57 > 0:28:01- There you go. Dear, oh, dear.- Are you all right?- You warmed it up.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03You've gone a very strange colour.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06I think I may have been a bit mean with it, I put £20 to £40.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Don't worry, she only paid £38.

0:28:08 > 0:28:10She paid exactly the right money.

0:28:10 > 0:28:12It's got a bit of character to it.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15Moving on to the Blues, Issidy and Betty.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17First up, they've got the beer tap. Do you rate that?

0:28:17 > 0:28:20Yeah, I like beer. I've made a long study of it.

0:28:20 > 0:28:23- How much?- That has got to be £5-£10 all day long, hasn't it?

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Perfect. Betty paid £5.

0:28:25 > 0:28:29Moving onto the Staffordshire Pottery biscuit box.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31I was sort of a little bit unmoved by this.

0:28:31 > 0:28:36What has it is the chromium-plated swing handle, really, isn't it?

0:28:36 > 0:28:40- Yeah.- I mean, that is a bit of Birmingham engineering at its best.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42- Yeah.- From the 1950s?

0:28:42 > 0:28:45But it is still going to make £15 to £30

0:28:45 > 0:28:47- cos someone is going to love it. - Of course there are.

0:28:47 > 0:28:50And I can quite understand that. £28 Kate Bliss paid.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52It might just be all right.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55- Lastly is this bamboo shooting stick.- Yeah.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57Which could be any old age, couldn't it?

0:28:57 > 0:28:59Yeah, I mean these things, you see lots of them.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02I think it is the sort of thing... If you are a sporting man

0:29:02 > 0:29:04and you've got a lodge that you want to decorate or

0:29:04 > 0:29:07if you've got a country pub that you want to decorate,

0:29:07 > 0:29:10they look great dressing rooms. So there might be a chance there.

0:29:10 > 0:29:12You clearly wouldn't use it as a shooting stick.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15- But in my eyes, £30 to £50. - OK, £55 paid.- Chance.

0:29:15 > 0:29:18There is a chance, absolutely. So, we have got some help there.

0:29:18 > 0:29:21But in case it all goes bottoms up, we have got the bonus buy.

0:29:21 > 0:29:23So let's go have a look at it.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27- Well, Issidy, Bets, this is exciting, isn't it?- Indeed.

0:29:27 > 0:29:31- I can't wait for the unveiling. - Nor can I! Anyway...

0:29:31 > 0:29:35- It's not a chair anyway.- No. - It is definitely not a chair.

0:29:35 > 0:29:38- Anyway, you spent £88, girls, right?- Yes.

0:29:38 > 0:29:42And Kate had £212 of leftover lolly.

0:29:42 > 0:29:45- She did indeed. - Kate, show us what you bought.

0:29:45 > 0:29:48Well, I know you were bitterly disappointed you didn't blow

0:29:48 > 0:29:52- more money.- We were.- So I have blown a fair wedge for you.- Good.

0:29:52 > 0:29:53Oh, right.

0:29:55 > 0:29:56Oh, wow!

0:29:56 > 0:29:59- Well.- That's really lovely.

0:29:59 > 0:30:01- Couldn't get much water in that, though.- No.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04- Now, I know you both love gardening. - We do.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07So when I saw this, I immediately thought of you.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10- It is English silver.- Oh, right.

0:30:10 > 0:30:15- And it is quite an unusual little piece. This dates from 1902.- Gosh!

0:30:15 > 0:30:17- Right. - But the thing I loved about it,

0:30:17 > 0:30:20apart from the way it is crafted, is if you open it up, you can

0:30:20 > 0:30:24see inside, it has got a little blue glass liner.

0:30:24 > 0:30:27Because if you put mustard straight into the silver, it starts

0:30:27 > 0:30:29corroding the silver, and it's not great.

0:30:29 > 0:30:32And that is all original, fits beautifully.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35Oh, right. I wouldn't mind buying that myself.

0:30:35 > 0:30:39Now, how much did you spend on the watering can novelty?

0:30:39 > 0:30:44- These things don't come cheaply, so I spent £125.- Wow.

0:30:44 > 0:30:46Now, I have an admission to make,

0:30:46 > 0:30:48and this is the moment I have to own up.

0:30:48 > 0:30:51When Kate bought this for £125,

0:30:51 > 0:30:56it was complete with a matching silver mustard spoon.

0:30:56 > 0:31:00And somehow, in transit, it has been mislaid.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02- BOTH: Oh!- Yes.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04- So I apologise for that. - But these things happen.

0:31:04 > 0:31:05These things happen.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Now, if this happens ordinarily, when it is in the auctioneers'

0:31:08 > 0:31:12care, the auctioneers pay out a insurance settlement.

0:31:12 > 0:31:16And I'm going to ask Philip Serrell what the mustard pot has

0:31:16 > 0:31:21lost in the way of value as a result of the spoon being lost.

0:31:21 > 0:31:22And then you can decide

0:31:22 > 0:31:24- whether you're going to go with the bonus buy or not.- OK.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27- Are you with it? Everybody happy? - We get the message.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29You get the message.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Anyway, standby, girls, cos right now, we are

0:31:31 > 0:31:35going to let the auctioneer have a look at the watering can

0:31:35 > 0:31:40mustard and give us his valuation of the insurance loss. Thanks, girls.

0:31:40 > 0:31:42- Thank you very much. - Thank you.- Thank you.

0:31:42 > 0:31:48There is the sweetest of sweetest watering-can-form mustard pots.

0:31:48 > 0:31:49- Lovely, isn't it?- Isn't that lovely?

0:31:49 > 0:31:51Now, I've got a bit of a problem here.

0:31:51 > 0:31:55Once upon a time, Kate Bliss bought this with a matching spoon

0:31:55 > 0:31:59and, unfortunately, in transit, the spoon has got lost.

0:31:59 > 0:32:03So, I have to ask you, how much do you think not having

0:32:03 > 0:32:08the spoon is likely to affect the end value?

0:32:08 > 0:32:12- I would think it is going to knock 25 quid off.- OK.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15- Thereabouts, 25 quid. - Well, I'll tell the team,

0:32:15 > 0:32:18if they go with the bonus buy, that they

0:32:18 > 0:32:20will have a credit of £25. Do think that is fair?

0:32:20 > 0:32:21I think that is very fair.

0:32:21 > 0:32:26- And I mean, I valued it, as it is there, at sort of £60 to £90.- OK.

0:32:26 > 0:32:28- So, we've got an estimate of 60 to 90.- Yep.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30There will be this insurance settlement.

0:32:30 > 0:32:33I'll explain that to the team before you sell it.

0:32:33 > 0:32:35- Otherwise, you are standing by, right?- Absolutely.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37Glad to hear it. Good luck.

0:32:42 > 0:32:46- Kevin, Adam, how are you feeling? - Pretty well.- Yeah, confident.

0:32:46 > 0:32:49A bit of brotherly companionship going on here?

0:32:49 > 0:32:51Yeah, we were talking about it and going over some of the items.

0:32:51 > 0:32:54- You nervous, Adam, or what? - Not really.- Not really.

0:32:54 > 0:32:57Pretty cool, these guys. Well done, chaps.

0:32:57 > 0:32:59This is exciting. A lovely, eclectic mix.

0:32:59 > 0:33:02First up are your number plates from Canada, and here they come.

0:33:02 > 0:33:06The car registration plates, put them in the bidding, start me off.

0:33:06 > 0:33:08Who has got a tenner?

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Right. 10, on bid, at 10. 12.

0:33:10 > 0:33:1215. 15. 18.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15- You're in profit.- 25. At 25.

0:33:15 > 0:33:16The book is out.

0:33:16 > 0:33:19At 25, is there anymore at all?

0:33:19 > 0:33:20At 25.

0:33:20 > 0:33:22It's your bid at £25.

0:33:22 > 0:33:23Is there any more?

0:33:23 > 0:33:26At £25, and done, thank you.

0:33:26 > 0:33:29- Very nice, £13 straight up. - Fantastic. Well done.

0:33:29 > 0:33:31Now, the dentist's chair.

0:33:31 > 0:33:34- This is going to be fine, standby. - This will be interesting.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36It is the dentist's chair.

0:33:36 > 0:33:40- Who has got £100 for the dentist's chair?- Come on.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42Has anybody not got a dentist's chair?

0:33:42 > 0:33:44LAUGHTER

0:33:44 > 0:33:46Oh, come on!

0:33:46 > 0:33:48£30 for the dentist's chair.

0:33:48 > 0:33:51Go on. Go on!

0:33:51 > 0:33:52This is terrible!

0:33:52 > 0:33:55Have we got £20 for the dentist's chair?

0:33:55 > 0:33:57Who has got a tenner for the dentist's chair?

0:33:57 > 0:33:59- Oh, no!- No! Surely...

0:33:59 > 0:34:02Ten on bid, at ten. Ten bid.

0:34:02 > 0:34:03- See, there.- 15.

0:34:03 > 0:34:0520 on the net, is it?

0:34:05 > 0:34:07One more on the net, surely.

0:34:07 > 0:34:08I've got 15 in the room.

0:34:08 > 0:34:10At £15 only. At 15.

0:34:10 > 0:34:11Is there any more?

0:34:11 > 0:34:14At £15, and I sell then

0:34:14 > 0:34:16at £15. And done. Thank you.

0:34:16 > 0:34:21£15! That is minus £45.

0:34:21 > 0:34:23Now, here comes the trunk.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26156 is this really lovely cabin trunk.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28There you are. Give me £30.

0:34:28 > 0:34:29That's for nothing.

0:34:29 > 0:34:31£30 for a cabin trunk.

0:34:31 > 0:34:32Who has got £20?

0:34:32 > 0:34:34- £20 to start.- Come on.

0:34:34 > 0:34:37- Who has got a tenner? - I'm going to cry.- So am I.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41Can I see 15? 20, sir? Five now?

0:34:41 > 0:34:4320 bid in the room. At 20. 20 bid.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46At £20 only. It is your bid.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48At £20, right at the back,

0:34:48 > 0:34:50and I sell then at £20.

0:34:50 > 0:34:52And done. Thank you.

0:34:52 > 0:34:55- Oh, my goodness, boys!- £20 is £80.

0:34:55 > 0:34:57Now, you had £13.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59You made a loss of £45,

0:34:59 > 0:35:01which gave you minus £32.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04You just lost another £80.

0:35:04 > 0:35:08So I make that minus 112.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10- Aw.- Minus 112.

0:35:10 > 0:35:12So, what are you going to do about the trumpet?

0:35:12 > 0:35:16We'll take it, yeah. Might take it down to 100, minus 100.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19- You don't have to have it, you know. - You don't have to love it.

0:35:19 > 0:35:20Let's make that a round figure.

0:35:21 > 0:35:24- Seriously, is that what you want to do?- We'll take it.- Are you sure?

0:35:24 > 0:35:27- Yeah.- Are you sure?- Why not?

0:35:27 > 0:35:29We are going to go with the bonus buy, and here it comes.

0:35:29 > 0:35:33Lot number 160 is the Hawkes & Son trumpet.

0:35:33 > 0:35:35The Clippertone, there you are.

0:35:35 > 0:35:36Well, I've got bids here,

0:35:36 > 0:35:38so I start at £20. Bid at 20.

0:35:38 > 0:35:4120 bid. Five. 35. 40, sir? 40.

0:35:41 > 0:35:43Well done, Cristina.

0:35:43 > 0:35:44You are in profit, sweetie.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46£40 there. Five on the net. At 45.

0:35:46 > 0:35:4950 on the net. At 50 on the net bid.

0:35:49 > 0:35:5055 on the net.

0:35:50 > 0:35:52At 55 on the net.

0:35:52 > 0:35:54Clearly they are very popular,

0:35:54 > 0:35:57Clippertone. At 55. 60 on the net.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00At £60 here on the net. At 60.

0:36:00 > 0:36:01Here's the bid. Any more at all?

0:36:01 > 0:36:03At £60, on the net.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06And I sell then at £60.

0:36:06 > 0:36:07And done. Thank you.

0:36:07 > 0:36:09£60, how brilliant is that?

0:36:09 > 0:36:11OK, that is plus 22.

0:36:11 > 0:36:15That takes you down to zero there.

0:36:15 > 0:36:16You are minus 90.

0:36:16 > 0:36:18That is quite respectable, really, isn't it?

0:36:18 > 0:36:21- That is not bad for Bargain Hunt. - Don't be like that.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23But what an exciting journey, eh?

0:36:23 > 0:36:26We were up, we were down, we clawed a bit back.

0:36:26 > 0:36:30- The voyage of life happens on this programme.- Exactly.

0:36:30 > 0:36:32OK, chaps, could be a winning score.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34Don't say a word to the Blues, all right?

0:36:34 > 0:36:36And all will be revealed in a moment.

0:36:41 > 0:36:46- Well, girls, been talking to the boys?- No. Absolutely not.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48We don't want you to either.

0:36:48 > 0:36:51Now, Bets, the tap, you paid £5 for,

0:36:51 > 0:36:54Philip has estimated £5 to £10 for.

0:36:54 > 0:36:59- Right.- Anyway, the second item is the biscuit box. £28 paid.

0:36:59 > 0:37:01He has estimated £15 to £30.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04And then you got the shooting stick, £55 paid,

0:37:04 > 0:37:06he has estimated £30 to £50.

0:37:06 > 0:37:10- OK? So I would say, girls, it's pretty cool for you lot.- Right.

0:37:10 > 0:37:13Anyway, if all does not go to plan,

0:37:13 > 0:37:18you've got the opportunity of going for the mustard pot novelty.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20Now, I have consulted with Philip Serrell

0:37:20 > 0:37:26and the insurance amount for the spoon being now lacking

0:37:26 > 0:37:27is £25.

0:37:27 > 0:37:31So, anything over 100 will be your profit, if you go with it.

0:37:31 > 0:37:35Now, your first item is the beer tap. Let's hope you get a pint.

0:37:35 > 0:37:41Lot number 173 is the brass beer barrel tap inscribed Victory.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Who has got a fiver?

0:37:43 > 0:37:45Five, on bid at five.

0:37:45 > 0:37:48At £5. Five bid.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50£5. Is there any more?

0:37:50 > 0:37:52At £5, and I sell then...

0:37:52 > 0:37:53Eight. Eight bid, ten.

0:37:53 > 0:37:55Oh, yes, you are in profit!

0:37:55 > 0:37:58- Well done!- Well done indeed!

0:37:58 > 0:38:00At ten on bid. It is your bid.

0:38:00 > 0:38:03At £10. £10 seated.

0:38:03 > 0:38:05Ten. 12. 15?

0:38:05 > 0:38:08- Hey!- At £12, right at the back.

0:38:08 > 0:38:10And done at 12. And done.

0:38:10 > 0:38:13£12, that is marvellous, isn't it?

0:38:13 > 0:38:16That is plus £7.

0:38:16 > 0:38:18OK, now, the biscuit box.

0:38:18 > 0:38:19There we go, the biscuit box.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22Bid me for that, someone. £20 to start.

0:38:24 > 0:38:25Bid me a tenner to start then,

0:38:25 > 0:38:27quickly. Ten anywhere.

0:38:27 > 0:38:28Surely £10.

0:38:29 > 0:38:31Well, who has got a fiver?

0:38:31 > 0:38:32Five. On bid at five.

0:38:32 > 0:38:34Five bid. Who has got eight now?

0:38:34 > 0:38:35At eight. Eight bid. Ten.

0:38:35 > 0:38:37Ten bid. 12 now?

0:38:37 > 0:38:3912. 12 bid.

0:38:40 > 0:38:4212, surely. Is there any more?

0:38:42 > 0:38:45At £12 in the white shirt.

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Done then at £12. Done, thank you.

0:38:48 > 0:38:51£12 is minus £16.

0:38:51 > 0:38:54- Sorry about that.- That's all right.

0:38:54 > 0:38:57Lot number 175 is the shooting stick.

0:38:57 > 0:38:58A bit of interest.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00I've got £10. Bid at ten.

0:39:00 > 0:39:0220. Five. 30.

0:39:02 > 0:39:0430 bid. £30. Five. 35. 40.

0:39:04 > 0:39:08- 40 bid. And five.- Come on, go, go!

0:39:08 > 0:39:10At 50 bid. 50. 50 bid.

0:39:10 > 0:39:13Any more at all? At £50, and I sell.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15- Uh-oh.- Oh!

0:39:15 > 0:39:17At 50 and done. Thank you.

0:39:17 > 0:39:20- £50 is minus- £5. So close.

0:39:20 > 0:39:24- Which means overall, you are minus £14.- Not too bad.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27Now, the big decision is this - you could part minus £14.

0:39:27 > 0:39:29That could be a winning score.

0:39:29 > 0:39:36Or you could risk effectively £100 on the novelty mustard.

0:39:36 > 0:39:40It's up to you. Do you want to go for it? I don't.

0:39:40 > 0:39:42Well... Hm.

0:39:42 > 0:39:44- We'll stick.- Yeah, we're going to stick.- Yeah.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47I think Betty'd quite like to have a go. Wouldn't you, Bets?

0:39:47 > 0:39:51- It's lovely.- You want to have a go? - Yes.- Go.- Well, no.- Go.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56- I mean, it is never easy, a split decision.- No, it isn't.

0:39:56 > 0:39:58We have the complication of the spoon,

0:39:58 > 0:40:04but on the other hand, the watering can mustard is quite a rare thing.

0:40:04 > 0:40:07- And it is quite pretty.- It is. - We'll go for it then.- Yes?- Yeah.

0:40:07 > 0:40:12- We're going to do it?- Yes.- Yes.- Both feet in?- Yes.- A quick jump?- Yes.

0:40:12 > 0:40:16- With boots on.- Boots on. We have a decision.

0:40:16 > 0:40:20We are going with the bonus buy. And here it comes.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23Lot number 179, a really lovely thing, actually.

0:40:23 > 0:40:25A little silver watering can.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27And I have got one, two,

0:40:27 > 0:40:29three, four commission bids.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32- They finish at £110.- Yes!

0:40:32 > 0:40:34- Yes!- Well done, girls.

0:40:34 > 0:40:36- Good decision!- Good decision.

0:40:36 > 0:40:39I'll take 20 anywhere. 120.

0:40:39 > 0:40:41- Five I have.- Hey.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44130 on the net, bid at 130.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46Any more? At £130 only.

0:40:46 > 0:40:48Is there any more? At £130,

0:40:48 > 0:40:50and done. Thank you.

0:40:50 > 0:40:53By the time we have applied the insurance settlement,

0:40:53 > 0:40:55that means you are £30 up.

0:40:55 > 0:40:56You were minus 14 before,

0:40:56 > 0:40:59which means you are now plus 16.

0:40:59 > 0:41:02How good is that? You are going home with folding money. £16.

0:41:02 > 0:41:05- £8 each.- £8 each.

0:41:05 > 0:41:08This could be a winning score, so say not a word to the boys.

0:41:08 > 0:41:11Good decision. Well done, Kate.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13And all will be revealed in a moment.

0:41:18 > 0:41:21Right. Well, teams, this is exciting, isn't it?

0:41:21 > 0:41:25- Have you been chatting? - ALL: No.- About the score?- GIRLS: No.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28Cos I know you got on incredibly well on today's

0:41:28 > 0:41:31programme, haven't you? We have spanned the generations here

0:41:31 > 0:41:33and you guys have all been absolutely marvellous.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36Sadly, on the programme, somebody has to win

0:41:36 > 0:41:38and somebody has to be the runner-up.

0:41:38 > 0:41:42And the runners-up today by a massive gulf,

0:41:42 > 0:41:45an unsustainable gulf, are the Reds.

0:41:45 > 0:41:46Hey!

0:41:46 > 0:41:48I mean, it started off beautifully.

0:41:48 > 0:41:53You had plus £13 on those very nice registration plates.

0:41:53 > 0:41:57And then it went right down the proverbial until you got to the

0:41:57 > 0:42:00trumpet and Christina's bonus buy, which made a profit of £22.

0:42:00 > 0:42:02But that, nevertheless,

0:42:02 > 0:42:04didn't get you above a final number of minus 90.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06Wow.

0:42:06 > 0:42:09Which is quite a big old number, really.

0:42:09 > 0:42:12But today, Issidy and Betty are actually going to go home

0:42:12 > 0:42:13with £16.

0:42:13 > 0:42:17- Thank you very much.- There is your £16. There is 15 of them.

0:42:17 > 0:42:19And here comes the other one.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21You start out with a profit on your barrel tap

0:42:21 > 0:42:23and then you do very, very badly

0:42:23 > 0:42:28until along comes Kate with her mustard pot watering can jobbie,

0:42:28 > 0:42:31which after a struggle with our spoon,

0:42:31 > 0:42:34made you a profit of £30, which is absolutely marv. Now, Issidy,

0:42:34 > 0:42:38I want to know, what has been the best bit of today's show for you?

0:42:38 > 0:42:42- Just being here all day. - Has that been great?- Yes, it has.

0:42:42 > 0:42:45- What about you, Bets? - Seeing you, sir.- Oh!

0:42:45 > 0:42:46She's a creep.

0:42:46 > 0:42:48THEY LAUGH

0:42:48 > 0:42:51We have had... Everybody is so happy.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54In fact, so happy, why don't you join us soon

0:42:54 > 0:42:57for some more bargain-hunting, yes? Yes!
