Today, we are in Oswestry, on the English-Welsh border.

0:00:020:00:07

This place has had a turbulent history, having been fought

0:00:070:00:11

over by successive armies over the years for possession.

0:00:110:00:15

But today, we are not looking for trouble. Oh, no, we are

0:00:150:00:19

looking for treasure. So...

0:00:190:00:21

Let's go bargain hunting, yeah!

0:00:210:00:24

Two opposing sides slugging it out round these parts is nothing new,

0:00:480:00:53

though.

0:00:530:00:54

Let's head over to the battle ground, I mean the fairground,

0:00:540:00:57

and have a sneak peek at what's coming up.

0:00:570:00:59

The Reds drawn to the more bizarre bargain.

0:01:010:01:04

This is not the kind of thing that I would buy...

0:01:040:01:06

-but it is really cool!

-Yeah, retro, isn't it?

0:01:060:01:09

And the Blues are determined to splash their cash.

0:01:090:01:12

I mean, we want something a little bit different

0:01:120:01:14

and a little bit more money.

0:01:140:01:16

-45?

-Not enough, is it?

-No, it isn't.

0:01:160:01:19

Let's meet the teams.

0:01:190:01:21

Today, on the Red team, we have brothers - Kevin and Adam.

0:01:220:01:26

And for the Blues, we have good friends - Issidy and Betty.

0:01:260:01:30

-Hello, everyone.

-ALL: Hello.

-Hello, hello.

0:01:300:01:32

Now, is there any sibling rivalry at all between you two?

0:01:320:01:35

-Not at all.

-We're like best mates, basically.

-Well, isn't that nice?

0:01:350:01:38

Now, Kevin, you get up to all sorts of things,

0:01:380:01:41

including something called bocking, tell me about that.

0:01:410:01:44

It's jumping stilts. You can jump about six or seven feet in the air.

0:01:440:01:47

It's like a mobile trampoline everywhere you go.

0:01:470:01:49

But they're attached to your legs.

0:01:490:01:51

I clearly have had a very sheltered and protected life cos

0:01:510:01:54

I've never heard of bocking before, but it sounds fantastic.

0:01:540:01:56

-It is brilliant.

-Now, you are a keen photographer.

0:01:560:01:59

Whenever I can, I go out and about, take photos of landscape shots

0:01:590:02:02

and quite conceptual shots as well.

0:02:020:02:04

I'll see things that I'll go, "Yeah, that's quite crazy."

0:02:040:02:06

And I'll mess around with aperture, the shot speeds.

0:02:060:02:09

-Is he good at it?

-He is, he's amazing.

-Well, he sounds amazing.

0:02:090:02:12

You've got all the patter and enthusiasm for it.

0:02:120:02:15

-Now, Adam, you have a high-octane, two-wheel hobby.

-Yes, I do.

0:02:150:02:19

-What do you get up to?

-Motorcycle racing.

0:02:190:02:21

So, what do you like about motor biking?

0:02:210:02:23

Speed, cornering, that kind of thing.

0:02:230:02:25

More of the cornering, passing - I like to get my elbow down,

0:02:250:02:28

-helmet down, that kind of thing.

-Do you?

0:02:280:02:30

-How fast do you go on these bikes?

-I've been 172mph.

0:02:300:02:33

-You never have!

-Yep.

-Not on the A34, though.

-No, on a track.

-On a track.

0:02:330:02:37

So, bocking, high-speed motor bicycling,

0:02:370:02:41

are you two just a pair of adrenaline junkies?

0:02:410:02:43

-I think that is probably the word for it, yeah.

-Do you collect anything?

0:02:430:02:46

-Helmets.

-Do you?

-Yeah.

-What, signed ones?

0:02:460:02:49

-Yeah, signed ones from TT, that kind of thing.

-Yeah.

0:02:490:02:51

Some of those can be worth a lot of money, can't they?

0:02:510:02:53

Well, thank you for coming and joining us. Good luck.

0:02:530:02:56

-Now, girls, you have been friends for a few years.

-30?

0:02:560:02:59

-Yes, indeed.

-About 30, yes.

-Is it?

-Yes.

-How did you meet?

0:02:590:03:02

We met in WI, didn't we?

0:03:020:03:03

-We did, yes.

-Indeed.

-For our sins.

-But we have a lot of those.

-Yes.

0:03:030:03:08

Now, Issidy, these boys are awfully good at motor bicycling,

0:03:080:03:12

-and you are no stranger to two wheels, are you?

-No.

0:03:120:03:15

When I was teaching in London, I had a Francis Barnett 197,

0:03:150:03:18

which I drove every morning over Albert Bridge to go to school,

0:03:180:03:22

-in a duffel coat, Wellington boots and a hat, you know, skid lid.

-Yes.

0:03:220:03:26

And I used to go home down the King's Road, Chelsea.

0:03:260:03:29

And one night I was late going home, so I was going quite fast.

0:03:290:03:33

And I realised there was a police car after me.

0:03:330:03:36

-Yes. So you went faster.

-Yes, of course I did.

0:03:360:03:39

-You tried to out run them.

-Well, yes.

0:03:390:03:41

It was quite easy in the King's Road,

0:03:410:03:42

because you go in and out of the traffic.

0:03:420:03:44

-Of course! Weaving...

-Yes.

0:03:440:03:46

-But they caught me at the traffic light.

-Oh, my!

0:03:460:03:49

-I didn't dare go through the red.

-No, quite.

0:03:490:03:51

And so they got their window down

0:03:510:03:53

and I took off my helmet to find out what they were saying to me

0:03:530:03:57

and one of them looked at me and said, "Good God, it's a woman!"

0:03:570:04:01

-Yeah.

-I know. They let me off.

-That is a marvellous story.

-I know.

0:04:010:04:05

-Now, Betty, you are a farmer's wife.

-I am indeed.

0:04:050:04:08

Until you retired from the farm. What do you like doing now?

0:04:080:04:12

Well, as I say, I'm in the WI and I like my craft - knitting and sewing.

0:04:120:04:17

And I cook and flower arranging and things like that.

0:04:170:04:20

You like to combine your interest in gardening and knitting, don't you?

0:04:200:04:24

Well, I enter the county show, which we have once a year.

0:04:240:04:27

We just had one this year, which I knitted vegetables for.

0:04:270:04:30

-You knit vegetables?

-I do indeed.

0:04:300:04:32

What is your favourite vegetable? What do you like knitting most?

0:04:320:04:35

Carrot or the beetroot. Mushroom.

0:04:350:04:38

What else do you knit, apart from vegetables?

0:04:380:04:40

-Well, knitted cakes.

-You knit cakes?

0:04:400:04:42

-Do go out a lot, Betty?

-Why yes, I do.

0:04:420:04:46

-It doesn't take long to knit a cake.

-Does it not?

-No.

0:04:460:04:48

Oh, how silly of me, of course it doesn't.

0:04:480:04:51

Now, all you need is the £300. There you go, £300.

0:04:510:04:54

You know the rules. Your experts await. And off you go!

0:04:540:04:57

And very, very good luck.

0:04:570:04:59

Well, I've never seen any knitted cakes and vegetables.

0:04:590:05:03

But I do like a slice of date and 'wool-nut,' as it happens. Ha!

0:05:030:05:08

Now, we have got two very glamorous experts who will be

0:05:080:05:10

helping our team out today.

0:05:100:05:12

She's no soft touch, though, it's...

0:05:120:05:14

And for the Blues,

0:05:160:05:17

wild horses wouldn't drag her from a bargain, it's...

0:05:170:05:20

What sort of thing do you think you might go for?

0:05:260:05:29

-Well, we thought of quirky things, didn't we?

-Yes.

0:05:290:05:32

-Old agricultural implements. See, Betty is a farmer's wife.

-Right.

0:05:320:05:37

-So maybe a bit of kitchenalia, Betty?

-Yes, I think so.

-Lovely.

0:05:370:05:42

What about you, Reds?

0:05:420:05:43

-You are quite daredevil-y, aren't you?

-That's right.

0:05:430:05:46

So we're looking for on-the-edge, cool 'mantiques?'

0:05:460:05:51

-Yeah, that is a good word, I like that.

-All right.

-Colourful.

0:05:510:05:54

Colourful? Very like your earrings.

0:05:540:05:56

Are you flirting, Christina?

0:05:560:05:59

Well, come on, the world is our oyster. Let's get going.

0:05:590:06:02

Let's go.

0:06:020:06:03

Your 60 minutes, teams, starts now.

0:06:070:06:10

Let's go! Right, blimey.

0:06:100:06:11

OK, so, we've got some...

0:06:110:06:13

-Shall we go left first?

-Yes.

-Yes.

0:06:130:06:17

Those plates aren't worth any money, are they?

0:06:170:06:19

He doesn't hang about, does he?

0:06:190:06:21

-Number plates, aren't they?

-Yeah, I know,

0:06:210:06:23

-but that's not something that someone would go for?

-Potentially.

0:06:230:06:26

I mean, they are cool, aren't they?

0:06:260:06:28

So what have we got? We've got one, too, three...

0:06:280:06:30

You could almost make a collage or display out of them, couldn't you?

0:06:300:06:34

Obviously, there are a few people in Ontario

0:06:340:06:36

who are missing their number plates.

0:06:360:06:39

-Do you like those?

-It's different anyway. It is something different.

0:06:390:06:43

-It is.

-It is something you don't normally see.

-No, exactly.

0:06:430:06:46

I mean, they are very 'mantique-y.'

0:06:460:06:48

-Shall we ask a price on them? Do want to find out?

-Yep.

0:06:480:06:51

-Where is our chap? Hello.

-Hello.

-Hello, hello, hello.

0:06:510:06:54

What are we thinking price-wise on your number plates?

0:06:540:06:56

How many are there?

0:06:560:06:58

So, you've got 1969, 1972.

0:06:580:07:02

-30, 40 years old.

-Are they all Canadian?

0:07:020:07:06

These are all Canadian and some...

0:07:060:07:08

"Keep it beautiful."

0:07:080:07:10

-These are from my partner.

-Right.

0:07:100:07:13

She lived over there in a previous life.

0:07:130:07:15

A previous life, so she has been rein-CAR-nated, has she?

0:07:150:07:19

-I'm looking for probably about 18 for the lot.

-£18 for the lot.

0:07:190:07:24

-What are your thoughts, chaps?

-15 and we'll have them, I'd say.

0:07:240:07:28

-Go in at 12!

-12 I'll do.

-12, there we go. Hang on a second.

0:07:280:07:32

Let's just talk about the bargaining before we do it. Lesson number one.

0:07:320:07:36

-£12, there we go. Are you happy?

-Yeah.

-Shake the man's hand.

0:07:360:07:40

-Brilliant, thank you.

-Thank you.

0:07:400:07:41

Kevin jumped in a bit quick there.

0:07:410:07:43

It'll be all that bocking he does.

0:07:430:07:46

But still, that collection of Canadian car plates was theirs

0:07:460:07:49

before you could say maple syrup. Well done, chaps.

0:07:490:07:52

Blues, you are on catch-up.

0:07:520:07:53

-That would be quite nice.

-The agate brooch?

0:07:530:07:56

Agate sells quite well.

0:07:560:07:59

The bad news is, though, that it is a brooch,

0:07:590:08:01

and brooches are a little bit uncommercial at the moment.

0:08:010:08:04

-Oh, really?

-Yeah.

-We'll move on, I think.

-Yes, move on.

0:08:040:08:08

-Nice, isn't it?

-Well, I think it is nice.

-Not particularly old, though.

0:08:080:08:12

No, no, no, no.

0:08:120:08:15

-All right, then, we leave it?

-Move on?

0:08:150:08:17

You have to work hard to impress Kate, ladies,

0:08:170:08:20

she is quick to diss, this Miss Bliss,

0:08:200:08:22

if she thinks something is a miss.

0:08:220:08:23

-So, we're seven minutes down and we spent...

-£12.

0:08:230:08:26

Last of the big spenders - I like it, I like it.

0:08:260:08:29

The Reds sure are motoring after that first buy,

0:08:290:08:31

but I think Adam was more of a biker boy.

0:08:310:08:33

What do you think about that? It has got a motorbike on it.

0:08:330:08:36

-Not really a sports bike.

-Surely the naked lady makes up for that.

0:08:360:08:39

-We'll keep that in mind, I reckon.

-All right, keep it in mind.

0:08:390:08:42

I'm sure you will, she is very naked.

0:08:420:08:44

Try and keep things decent, thank you, Christina.

0:08:440:08:46

Let's go back to the respectable Blues.

0:08:460:08:49

Do you know, this was on the television the other day.

0:08:490:08:52

-Oh, yes, I've got one of those.

-Did you see that?

-That's very nice.

0:08:520:08:54

-It is nice, isn't it? Would that make money? I don't know.

-Oh, I think so.

0:08:540:08:59

Where's Kate when you need her, eh?

0:08:590:09:01

-For your garden, for your outside tap or anything.

-Hm.

0:09:010:09:04

Uh-oh, here she is.

0:09:040:09:06

-I would use that as a paper weight.

-What have you got, ladies?

0:09:060:09:09

-I have one.

-Do you?

-Yes, I do.

-Like this?

-Yes.

-I've got one.

0:09:090:09:14

Is it for a brewery or whatever?

0:09:140:09:15

I think it is from a barrel, you're absolutely right, Betty.

0:09:150:09:19

-Yes.

-It is a brass tap.

-It has been reduced to 15, it was 30.

0:09:190:09:24

-I think we should think about that.

-You rather like that?

-Yes, I do.

0:09:240:09:27

-Well, it is different, isn't it?

-Don't you like it?

-I do like it.

0:09:270:09:31

-At a price.

-You don't have to say you do.

0:09:310:09:33

-I'm not sure how commercial it is.

-Right.

0:09:330:09:36

And again, I don't think it has tapped your barrel, has it, Kate?

0:09:360:09:40

It you both like it, there's no reason why we shouldn't buy it.

0:09:400:09:43

But what you have got to ask yourself is,

0:09:430:09:45

-who is going to buy it at the auction?

-Quite.

0:09:450:09:48

-Good question.

-Probably I would.

-Probably somebody like you.

0:09:480:09:52

There are people who collect brewing memorabilia, certainly, but I don't

0:09:520:09:57

think I'd want to pay very much if we're going to make a profit.

0:09:570:10:01

So what would you say?

0:10:010:10:02

Well, I am going to be really cheeky and save maybe a fiver.

0:10:020:10:06

But it depends what the lady... They're nodding. Is five OK?

0:10:060:10:10

Yeah, but because it is for you.

0:10:100:10:12

It's not very much money. Shall we take the plunge?

0:10:120:10:15

-Yes, I think we should take the plunge.

-Shall we do it, Betty?

0:10:150:10:18

-We'll try it.

-We'll do it. For £5?

-Yes.

0:10:180:10:21

-I hope you do well with it.

-Great. Well done, ladies.

0:10:210:10:24

Well, that is certainly something different.

0:10:240:10:26

I don't think I've ever bought a brass tap.

0:10:260:10:28

Well done, Blues. I am always being tapped for a fiver, me.

0:10:280:10:31

So two rather intriguing first buys.

0:10:310:10:35

The trumpet? I am actually up for the trumpet.

0:10:350:10:37

I'm into electro swing, like, so much.

0:10:370:10:40

What on earth is electro swing?

0:10:400:10:42

It's like a 1930s jazz and electro beat in the background.

0:10:420:10:47

I'm not sure that there'd be a huge amount of market for it.

0:10:480:10:51

We've got a bit of welding that needs going on there.

0:10:510:10:53

-I reckon we don't go for that.

-All right.

0:10:530:10:55

-It's down to you.

-That's fine.

0:10:550:10:56

We've only got part of the way round, we might see another one.

0:10:560:10:59

-Yeah?

-Yeah.

0:10:590:11:01

Well, you are hardly treading a traditional path here, Reds.

0:11:010:11:05

You'll be looking at that old dentist's chair next.

0:11:050:11:08

What about this thing over here? That looks quite cool, doesn't it?

0:11:080:11:10

I was only joking.

0:11:100:11:12

It is the dentist's chair. Look, it's got adjustable arms

0:11:120:11:16

and a nice head rest so you feel comfortable.

0:11:160:11:18

It's got a good history, by the looks of things.

0:11:180:11:20

If you lift that up, then you can push that down.

0:11:200:11:24

And this all the way up.

0:11:240:11:26

That all the way up. Do you know what?

0:11:260:11:28

I know this sounds completely ridiculous,

0:11:280:11:30

this is not the kind of thing that I would buy, but it's really cool!

0:11:300:11:33

Yeah, retro, isn't it? Yeah.

0:11:330:11:35

I don't know who on earth would buy it.

0:11:350:11:37

As I said, mate, this is your turn to pick. You decide on this one.

0:11:370:11:41

-I've got no say.

-Is it comfortable? Let's try it out.

0:11:410:11:44

The words comfortable and dentist's chair don't really go together.

0:11:440:11:47

-There go. Lie back.

-A nice massage.

-Yeah, thank you.

0:11:470:11:52

-Comfy?

-It is, actually.

-Is it?

-A bit damp, but...

0:11:530:11:56

-What do you think?

-If we can get a nice price on it.

0:11:560:11:59

-Yeah, definitely.

-Gentlemen, what is your best price?

0:11:590:12:03

-Give me 60 quid.

-Yeah?

0:12:030:12:05

I have to say, I'm not sure it's going to make you any money,

0:12:050:12:08

-but it can get more random than a dentist's chair. Yeah?

-Yeah.

0:12:080:12:12

-Do it at 60?

-60?

-Shake the man's hand.

0:12:120:12:15

As the Reds close their second surreal deal,

0:12:150:12:19

I'm counting on the Blues to bring us back to sanity.

0:12:190:12:21

-242, isn't it?

-Really?

0:12:210:12:25

-This is a pussycat?

-No, it's not, it's a dog.

0:12:250:12:28

Good grief.

0:12:280:12:29

-How much were they asking for that?

-135.

-Oh, really?

-Yes.

-Oh, gosh.

0:12:290:12:33

-You know, however hard I try, I can't think of it as a pussycat.

-No.

0:12:330:12:37

Whether it is a pussy, or a pooch or a sheep,

0:12:370:12:39

if you are not buying, move on.

0:12:390:12:41

-What do you think of that?

-Very nice.

-I love the design there.

0:12:440:12:49

-They're foxgloves. They are pretty, aren't they?

-Is it a biscuit barrel?

0:12:490:12:54

-It is a biscuit barrel.

-Yes.

0:12:540:12:56

Is that this sort of thing, as a farmer's wife,

0:12:560:12:58

-you'd have in your cupboard?

-I'd definitely have that.

0:12:580:13:00

This is just the sort of thing, this biscuit barrel,

0:13:000:13:03

my mother would've had.

0:13:030:13:04

I would say the best thing about it is possibly the shape.

0:13:040:13:08

-Very unusual.

-It is. It is very Art Deco in shape, very '30s.

0:13:080:13:14

-On a base like that. Now, we've got...

-What does it say?

0:13:140:13:17

-..the factory on the bottom. Royal Staffordshire Pottery.

-Right.

0:13:170:13:21

-By Wilkinson.

-Yes, it is.

-Who were a very well-known factory.

0:13:210:13:25

They made this sort of chintzy ware and the 1920s and '30s,

0:13:250:13:29

-which was incredibly fashionable.

-That is quite nice inside.

0:13:290:13:33

We've got the bolts from the handle there,

0:13:330:13:35

which looks original, actually.

0:13:350:13:37

But the shape is the best thing about it.

0:13:370:13:41

-Very different.

-Can we look at it on the table? Set it on...

0:13:410:13:44

-Shall I stand it up?

-Yes, on there.

0:13:440:13:46

If I put it on here, what do you think?

0:13:460:13:49

-How does it look?

-Very nice, actually. Yes.

0:13:490:13:51

-We've got £40 on there.

-I think that is a reasonable price.

0:13:510:13:55

-Do you?

-Yes.

-Do you know, I don't.

-Oh, right.

0:13:550:13:59

Have you seen this show, Issy? You have got to haggle!

0:13:590:14:02

That is a reasonable fair price,

0:14:020:14:04

but I was thinking more sort of 20, 25.

0:14:040:14:09

Can you do us an offer on it?

0:14:090:14:10

-30?

-OK, what do we think of that?

-Well, I'd like it.

0:14:100:14:14

Would you pay 30 for it, though?

0:14:140:14:17

Hmm...

0:14:170:14:18

Think carefully, Betty.

0:14:180:14:19

-Perhaps 25.

-28.

-Would you?

-Yeah.

0:14:190:14:25

28 might give us a bit more of a chance.

0:14:250:14:28

-BOTH: Yes.

-Time is ticking. I think, perhaps, make a decision?

0:14:280:14:31

-Well, I like it. And you like it.

-I do.

0:14:310:14:33

Right, we've got a deal then. £28? Lovely. Thank you very much.

0:14:330:14:38

-Thank you.

-Great.

0:14:380:14:40

She is a smart cookie, that Kate. Good on you, girls.

0:14:400:14:43

It's two items each and both experts are taking time for a team talk.

0:14:430:14:47

Ladies, we are doing jolly well. We have got about a half an hour left.

0:14:470:14:50

We've got two buys.

0:14:500:14:52

-And we've spent 28 and a fiver.

-Yes.

-So we've spent 33...

-Not enough.

0:14:520:14:56

-Not enough?

-No.

-We'll have to spend more than that.

0:14:560:14:59

It's a similar story with the Reds.

0:14:590:15:01

Spent £60 on the chair and £12 on the number plates,

0:15:010:15:04

so £72. We've got LOADS of money to spend!

0:15:040:15:08

-Right, get looking.

-Spend big.

0:15:080:15:09

We must have a big spend up.

0:15:090:15:11

-A big spend!

-Yes.

-OK, let's do a big spend.

0:15:110:15:14

-What do you think, down there?

-Yes.

0:15:140:15:16

But spend it wisely, eh, teams?

0:15:160:15:18

While they hunt on,

0:15:180:15:20

I want to flag out one investment that could bring a big return.

0:15:200:15:24

You come across lots of these little leather cases in fairs like this.

0:15:240:15:29

And they inevitably contain one thing and one thing alone,

0:15:290:15:33

and that is a stick pin.

0:15:330:15:36

It was generally used to secure your tie.

0:15:360:15:40

What we've got on the end of this gold pin is a flag.

0:15:400:15:45

And if I put it on my sleeve, you can see just how beautiful

0:15:450:15:49

it looks when it is applied to a bit of material.

0:15:490:15:53

Up the flagpole that you see is an incrustation of diamonds,

0:15:550:16:00

which is set into platinum, which make that flag staff special.

0:16:000:16:04

The flag itself flutters away,

0:16:040:16:07

and that has been enamelled on top of gold.

0:16:070:16:11

Then, it has got, in rubies, two diagonal lines

0:16:110:16:15

and a short section of rubies at the top.

0:16:150:16:19

What we've got here is a stick pin

0:16:190:16:21

that identifies just how smart you are as a yachtsman.

0:16:210:16:26

In the 19th century, the craze for yachting was taking off, and

0:16:260:16:31

yachtsmen were all rich by virtue of needing the money to buy a yacht.

0:16:310:16:37

And they only wanted to associate with other rich people,

0:16:370:16:40

and they formed all sorts of clubs.

0:16:400:16:42

Each of the clubs designed their own flags,

0:16:420:16:45

and that is it the difficult thing to decode.

0:16:450:16:48

We've got a date, which is 1878, and the initial R.

0:16:480:16:53

What is it worth?

0:16:530:16:54

Well, in a fair like this, you could buy it for £65.

0:16:540:16:59

But if you could unscramble that lot, I tell you,

0:16:590:17:02

this thing could turn out to be a serious winner. Oh, yes.

0:17:020:17:07

Back to the shopping.

0:17:110:17:13

The Blue team want to win, and they want to spend serious cash.

0:17:130:17:16

The ladies make a great team

0:17:160:17:17

and they have actually got a really good eye between them,

0:17:170:17:21

I think. They are picking out some great items.

0:17:210:17:23

-I don't think we are spending enough money, actually.

-No.

0:17:230:17:26

-Quite honestly.

-But we're not ones for spending a lot of money, are we?

0:17:260:17:30

I've been round the block enough times to know that you have

0:17:300:17:33

got to speculate to accumulate, Blues.

0:17:330:17:36

Now, our refreshingly random Reds have spotted something that has been

0:17:360:17:40

a lot further than around the block and more than a few times.

0:17:400:17:42

-What do you think about this?

-Again, it's different.

-It is different.

0:17:420:17:45

-And that is the kind of theme that we've got so far.

-You're telling me!

0:17:450:17:48

The thing that I love about it...

0:17:480:17:50

You've got F Burgess, obviously who it belonged to,

0:17:500:17:52

Kolar Gold Field, Mysore State, South India.

0:17:520:17:56

Obviously, it's been out to some sort of gold mine.

0:17:560:17:59

And this is sort of early 20th century if not late 19th century.

0:17:590:18:02

So it has certainly travelled.

0:18:020:18:03

I love the fact that it has got all the wonderful...

0:18:030:18:06

-I love the stickers.

-Yeah, stickers on here.

0:18:060:18:08

So Bombay to Liverpool.

0:18:080:18:11

For Anchor Line.

0:18:110:18:13

RMS, so and so. Cabin number, so and so.

0:18:130:18:16

But you are finding that because these are really quite popular that

0:18:160:18:19

we do have to be quite careful about forgeries or basically replicas.

0:18:190:18:24

But it has got a wonderful old mend here.

0:18:240:18:27

Let's have a look inside and see what we can find out.

0:18:270:18:30

That is where it has been fixed on there.

0:18:300:18:32

Would something like that eat into the price a lot?

0:18:320:18:34

Well, if it was a trunk, I would say £30 to £50.

0:18:340:18:39

With this inscription, I think that's brilliant.

0:18:390:18:41

So often I say, "Condition, condition, condition," but the

0:18:410:18:44

fact that it has travelled so far and has got these wonderful scars...

0:18:440:18:47

-Someone has kept it alive.

-Exactly.

0:18:470:18:50

And if only it could talk, that would be wonderful, wouldn't it?

0:18:500:18:53

-The stories it could tell. So, do you like it?

-Definitely.

0:18:530:18:57

And if you both like it, that is something you can buy together.

0:18:570:19:01

-Mutual decision.

-We both agree.

0:19:010:19:03

This is our last thing.

0:19:030:19:04

I think if you are standing a chance of making a profit on it,

0:19:040:19:08

you really want to try and get it for under £100.

0:19:080:19:10

I think it is fab, really cool.

0:19:100:19:12

I think the history behind it is brilliant.

0:19:120:19:14

-Who's going to do the bargaining?

-I'll have a go.

-Go all at 'em.

0:19:140:19:18

Go on, you can do it. Bat your eyelids.

0:19:180:19:20

Ooh! Do you think he'll do it? Is he good at bargaining?

0:19:200:19:23

He's all right, yeah. He's got the gift of the gab.

0:19:230:19:25

-Oh, has he?

-Yeah.

-Good, we sent the right one.

0:19:250:19:27

While Adam gets on the well-travelled case, the Blues are

0:19:270:19:30

covering a lot of ground themselves in the hunt for their number three.

0:19:300:19:33

-We've got to buy, buy, buy.

-We've got to get going, haven't we?

0:19:330:19:36

We have got to get going.

0:19:360:19:38

I mean, we want something a little bit and a little bit more money.

0:19:390:19:42

-How much is the trumpet?

-I don't think it is going to be much, is it?

0:19:420:19:45

45.

0:19:450:19:47

-Not enough, is it?

-No, it isn't.

0:19:470:19:49

We want something bigger than that, Issidy.

0:19:490:19:51

I know, I know, I'm just looking at it.

0:19:510:19:53

What were they asking for those milk churns?

0:19:530:19:56

I didn't look. They were rusted.

0:19:560:19:58

Oh, right.

0:19:580:20:00

These Blues are naughty.

0:20:000:20:02

Now, how has Adam got on with that case?

0:20:020:20:04

I spoke to the lady and I managed to get it down to £100.

0:20:040:20:07

-It was 125, so...

-Brilliant, well d... And have we done a deal?

0:20:070:20:10

-Yeah.

-Oh, you have! You bought it?

-Yeah.

-We're done!

0:20:100:20:14

Well done, guys. Perfect. Brilliant.

0:20:140:20:17

Now hang on a second, we bought a load of old car plates,

0:20:170:20:20

we bought a random old dentist's chair and we bought an old trunk.

0:20:200:20:23

Good skills.

0:20:230:20:26

It may be off-the-wall, Reds, but you've got your three buys.

0:20:260:20:29

Now, my level-headed Blues, it is up to you find your up third item.

0:20:290:20:33

-You don't like this?

-No.

-You don't?

-No.

-Well, you've got to have...

0:20:330:20:37

-Cos I've chosen one, you haven't choose one.

-75.

0:20:370:20:40

Is it as much as that?

0:20:400:20:41

It's a shooting stick, so you take it with you shooting

0:20:410:20:45

and when you wanted to rest your pins, open it out.

0:20:450:20:48

It is quite nice cos it has got this little sort of cane work

0:20:480:20:50

seat, which is a little bit different.

0:20:500:20:53

The only thing that I am concerned about is do you see the brass

0:20:530:20:56

-ware on it?

-Oh, yes.

-That has been cleaned off.

-Right.

0:20:560:21:00

So although the bamboo, which is what this is, is rather nice,

0:21:000:21:03

I'm a bit concerned about the metal mounts,

0:21:030:21:07

because they have either been cleaned off or they are later.

0:21:070:21:10

I think they have probably been cleaned off.

0:21:100:21:12

All the wear and patina has been removed

0:21:120:21:15

-because somebody has polished it too hard. It has cleaned it off.

-Right.

0:21:150:21:19

-Which is sad because it is not in its original condition.

-Hm.

0:21:190:21:23

But there is no harm in asking what their best price is.

0:21:230:21:26

Hey there, what is the best price on the shooting stick?

0:21:260:21:30

-55.

-55.

-55.

0:21:300:21:31

That's not too bad.

0:21:310:21:33

-What do you think, ladies?

-I think it's a done deal.

0:21:330:21:36

-Thank you very much indeed.

-Pleasure.

0:21:360:21:38

A pleasure also.

0:21:380:21:40

Thank you for being so...waiting for us.

0:21:400:21:42

-Lovely. We got there in the end.

-Yes.

0:21:420:21:44

-We did get there in the end, you're right.

-Yes.

0:21:440:21:48

Time's up. Let's check out what the Red team bought.

0:21:480:21:51

The first crop was a bumper one -

0:21:510:21:53

a set of Canadian number plates for £12.

0:21:530:21:56

The dealer then extracted £60 from them for this dentist's chair,

0:21:560:22:01

leaving quite a cavity.

0:22:010:22:03

Finally, they bought an old travelling case for £100.

0:22:030:22:08

-Now, which is your favourite item?

-I'd say...

0:22:080:22:10

-The chair.

-The chair is your favourite?

-A bit different.

0:22:100:22:13

-Does your brother agree with that?

-Oh, yeah, definitely.

0:22:130:22:15

Which piece will bring the biggest profit?

0:22:150:22:17

I'd say the number plates due to the fact they're the cheapest.

0:22:170:22:20

We could get some nice money out of that.

0:22:200:22:21

-Do you agree with that?

-Yeah.

-They are so agreeable, these boys.

0:22:210:22:24

And they're brothers. I wish I was like this with my sister.

0:22:240:22:27

OK. How much did you spend?

0:22:270:22:29

-172.

-172.

0:22:290:22:30

-I'd like £128, please, of leftover lolly.

-Fantastic.

0:22:300:22:35

-Straight across to the woman

-who knows. Thank you very much.

0:22:350:22:37

What are you going to do?

0:22:370:22:39

The one thing we didn't get was something motorbike-y,

0:22:390:22:41

so, I don't know, I'll go and look for something.

0:22:410:22:43

Only if it is profitable, please!

0:22:430:22:45

-OK, I'll do my best.

-OK. Anyway, good luck with that.

0:22:450:22:48

Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought, eh?

0:22:480:22:51

The Blues kicked off with a barrel tap for £5.

0:22:510:22:54

They kept the barrel theme going with a biscuit barrel for £28.

0:22:560:23:01

Finally, they gave it both barrels with a shooting stick for £55.

0:23:010:23:06

-Now, was that good fun, that shopping, or not?

-Great fun.

-Yes.

0:23:080:23:11

-Great fun, we did enjoy it.

-Which is your favourite piece?

0:23:110:23:14

-The tap, it's a brass tap.

-That is your favourite.

0:23:140:23:16

Do agree with that, Betty?

0:23:160:23:18

No, I think the shooting stick is my favourite.

0:23:180:23:21

-OK, is that going to bring the biggest profit?

-Yes.

-Yes, it is.

0:23:210:23:24

We have got a very firm, very firm prediction there.

0:23:240:23:28

-And how much did you spend?

-88.

-I can't believe that.

0:23:280:23:32

Two girls on the razzle and only spending £88.

0:23:320:23:36

-Well, we don't spend a lot.

-You clearly don't spend a lot.

0:23:360:23:40

OK, so I would like to £212 of leftover lolly, please.

0:23:400:23:45

-You don't like passing this over, do you?

-No. It's a lot.

-Isn't it a lot?

0:23:450:23:50

-I know.

-I won't hang onto it for long cos it goes straight over

0:23:500:23:54

-to her indoors, who's going to go out, I hope, and spend the lot.

-Yes!

0:23:540:23:58

Do you know, Issidy and Betty were really disappointed that they

0:23:580:24:01

didn't spend more. We just didn't find the right things.

0:24:010:24:04

-But you might.

-I'm going for a big spend.

0:24:040:24:07

Are you? So exciting!

0:24:070:24:09

Anyway, let's trot off quick to the auction, eh?

0:24:090:24:12

Well, I can't tell you what an incredible pleasure it is to

0:24:260:24:29

wind my way back to the hills of Malvern to be with Phil.

0:24:290:24:33

How old are you, old boy?

0:24:330:24:35

I am very, very well. I hope you are.

0:24:350:24:36

I am extremely fit and very pleased to be here.

0:24:360:24:39

Kevin and Adam will be excited to see your opinion on these

0:24:390:24:44

nice number plate jobbies.

0:24:440:24:46

I'm not sure that there is too much demand for Canadian number plates

0:24:460:24:50

in Greater Malvern and its environs, really.

0:24:500:24:53

I don't know what you'd do with them.

0:24:530:24:54

-I suppose you'd bang them on the wall of your garage.

-Yeah, exactly.

0:24:540:24:58

I can see them nailed up in an attractive display.

0:24:580:25:01

All I am saying to you, old boy, is can you make more than £12?

0:25:010:25:04

-Yeah, I'd hope so.

-You would think so.

0:25:040:25:07

-£3 each and it shows a profit.

-Exactly.

0:25:070:25:10

You have done the mathematics just like that, they don't call you

0:25:100:25:13

-electric for nothing.

-Sharp.

-Sharp, that's it. Now, the dentist's chair.

0:25:130:25:16

This thing is, today, supposed to be very,

0:25:160:25:20

very on trend for young people.

0:25:200:25:22

Well, it is just condition, isn't it? I think is 40 quid's worth.

0:25:220:25:25

Do you? They paid £60. I don't know.

0:25:250:25:28

If it's online, that is going to be your big hope, I reckon.

0:25:280:25:31

Now, moving on to our travels once more.

0:25:310:25:34

Travelled to Mysore, Southern India - very, very hot.

0:25:340:25:37

And then it came back, look,

0:25:370:25:39

with the Anchor Line from Bombay to Liverpool. How cool is that?

0:25:390:25:42

It is a nice thing.

0:25:420:25:44

I think the only thing that is going to help us sell that is we have

0:25:440:25:47

got another trunk in this sale that is sort of just a little bit better.

0:25:470:25:50

The one that you brought in, Tim, might do £30 to £50.

0:25:500:25:54

-They paid 100.

-Oh, right. OK.

0:25:540:25:58

-A bit of variance there, isn't there?

-There we go.

0:25:580:26:00

We'll shut that one up. They paid £100.

0:26:000:26:03

You are reckoning £30 to £50. They could be torpedoed by that.

0:26:030:26:06

In which case, they are going to need their bonus buy.

0:26:060:26:08

So let's shuffle off and have a look at it.

0:26:080:26:11

£172 you have spent

0:26:120:26:15

and you gave Christina £128 of leftover lolly.

0:26:150:26:19

-OK, Christina, what did you spend it on?

-I bought you...

0:26:190:26:23

-Oh!

-..a trumpet.

0:26:230:26:25

And not only did she buy you a trumpet,

0:26:250:26:28

she bought you a trumpet...case.

0:26:280:26:32

-Brilliant.

-Cos we did look at one that didn't have a case.

0:26:320:26:34

-OK, admittedly, the box is...

-Tattered.

-It has seen better days.

0:26:340:26:38

-It has obviously travelled.

-It has been used a lot.

-Yes.

0:26:380:26:41

But we have got a great mark on it. Clippertone Excelsior Sonorous

0:26:410:26:45

Class A Hawkes & Son, great musical name there.

0:26:450:26:48

And I know that you love your music, so there we go.

0:26:480:26:50

-What do you think about it?

-It's different. I didn't expect that.

0:26:500:26:53

I thought it'd be a bit of jewellery or something.

0:26:530:26:56

That is very different.

0:26:560:26:57

And I mean, if you are into your music,

0:26:570:26:59

why go and buy the brand-new example from the music shop,

0:26:590:27:01

which would cost you several hundred pounds,

0:27:010:27:03

when you can come to auction and buy a practice instrument

0:27:030:27:06

or something to have fun with modestly.

0:27:060:27:09

-For £38.

-That is what she spent, £38.

-Yeah.

0:27:090:27:13

-I'd love to know if it still works.

-Go on, Adam.

-Go on, Adam.

0:27:130:27:16

-HE BLOWS, NO SOUND EMITTED

-Nice one(!)

0:27:160:27:19

OK, you don't pick now, right? The best thing to do, though,

0:27:190:27:22

at this moment in time, is to ask her

0:27:220:27:24

-how much she thinks it is going to make.

-What do you reckon?

0:27:240:27:28

I would hope it would make £30 to £50.

0:27:280:27:30

I think the fact that it has got its box with it is great.

0:27:300:27:33

And I think it has got everything going for it.

0:27:330:27:35

Well anyway, you don't pick now,

0:27:350:27:37

you pick after the sale of the first three items.

0:27:370:27:39

Right now, let's find out from the auctioneer

0:27:390:27:41

whether Christina is hitting the right note.

0:27:410:27:44

Well, Phil, you like to blow your own trumpet a bit, don't you?

0:27:440:27:47

-I do, Tim.

-Give us a blow.

0:27:470:27:49

-HE BLOWS, NO SOUND EMITTED

-That's terrible!

0:27:490:27:51

-You have a go.

-Absolutely terrible.

0:27:510:27:54

TRUMPET BLOWS, OFF TUNE

0:27:540:27:57

-There you go. Dear, oh, dear.

-Are you all right?

-You warmed it up.

0:27:570:28:01

You've gone a very strange colour.

0:28:010:28:03

I think I may have been a bit mean with it, I put £20 to £40.

0:28:030:28:06

Don't worry, she only paid £38.

0:28:060:28:08

She paid exactly the right money.

0:28:080:28:10

It's got a bit of character to it.

0:28:100:28:12

Moving on to the Blues, Issidy and Betty.

0:28:120:28:15

First up, they've got the beer tap. Do you rate that?

0:28:150:28:17

Yeah, I like beer. I've made a long study of it.

0:28:170:28:20

-How much?

-That has got to be £5-£10 all day long, hasn't it?

0:28:200:28:23

Perfect. Betty paid £5.

0:28:230:28:25

Moving onto the Staffordshire Pottery biscuit box.

0:28:250:28:29

I was sort of a little bit unmoved by this.

0:28:290:28:31

What has it is the chromium-plated swing handle, really, isn't it?

0:28:310:28:36

-Yeah.

-I mean, that is a bit of Birmingham engineering at its best.

0:28:360:28:40

-Yeah.

-From the 1950s?

0:28:400:28:42

But it is still going to make £15 to £30

0:28:420:28:45

-cos someone is going to love it.

-Of course there are.

0:28:450:28:47

And I can quite understand that. £28 Kate Bliss paid.

0:28:470:28:50

It might just be all right.

0:28:500:28:52

-Lastly is this bamboo shooting stick.

-Yeah.

0:28:520:28:55

Which could be any old age, couldn't it?

0:28:550:28:57

Yeah, I mean these things, you see lots of them.

0:28:570:28:59

I think it is the sort of thing... If you are a sporting man

0:28:590:29:02

and you've got a lodge that you want to decorate or

0:29:020:29:04

if you've got a country pub that you want to decorate,

0:29:040:29:07

they look great dressing rooms. So there might be a chance there.

0:29:070:29:10

You clearly wouldn't use it as a shooting stick.

0:29:100:29:12

-But in my eyes, £30 to £50.

-OK, £55 paid.

-Chance.

0:29:120:29:15

There is a chance, absolutely. So, we have got some help there.

0:29:150:29:18

But in case it all goes bottoms up, we have got the bonus buy.

0:29:180:29:21

So let's go have a look at it.

0:29:210:29:23

-Well, Issidy, Bets, this is exciting, isn't it?

-Indeed.

0:29:240:29:27

-I can't wait for the unveiling.

-Nor can I! Anyway...

0:29:270:29:31

-It's not a chair anyway.

-No.

-It is definitely not a chair.

0:29:310:29:35

-Anyway, you spent £88, girls, right?

-Yes.

0:29:350:29:38

And Kate had £212 of leftover lolly.

0:29:380:29:42

-She did indeed.

-Kate, show us what you bought.

0:29:420:29:45

Well, I know you were bitterly disappointed you didn't blow

0:29:450:29:48

-more money.

-We were.

-So I have blown a fair wedge for you.

-Good.

0:29:480:29:52

Oh, right.

0:29:520:29:53

Oh, wow!

0:29:550:29:56

-Well.

-That's really lovely.

0:29:560:29:59

-Couldn't get much water in that, though.

-No.

0:29:590:30:01

-Now, I know you both love gardening.

-We do.

0:30:010:30:04

So when I saw this, I immediately thought of you.

0:30:040:30:07

-It is English silver.

-Oh, right.

0:30:070:30:10

-And it is quite an unusual little piece. This dates from 1902.

-Gosh!

0:30:100:30:15

-Right.

-But the thing I loved about it,

0:30:150:30:17

apart from the way it is crafted, is if you open it up, you can

0:30:170:30:20

see inside, it has got a little blue glass liner.

0:30:200:30:24

Because if you put mustard straight into the silver, it starts

0:30:240:30:27

corroding the silver, and it's not great.

0:30:270:30:29

And that is all original, fits beautifully.

0:30:290:30:32

Oh, right. I wouldn't mind buying that myself.

0:30:320:30:35

Now, how much did you spend on the watering can novelty?

0:30:350:30:39

-These things don't come cheaply, so I spent £125.

-Wow.

0:30:390:30:44

Now, I have an admission to make,

0:30:440:30:46

and this is the moment I have to own up.

0:30:460:30:48

When Kate bought this for £125,

0:30:480:30:51

it was complete with a matching silver mustard spoon.

0:30:510:30:56

And somehow, in transit, it has been mislaid.

0:30:560:31:00

-BOTH: Oh!

-Yes.

0:31:000:31:02

-So I apologise for that.

-But these things happen.

0:31:020:31:04

These things happen.

0:31:040:31:05

Now, if this happens ordinarily, when it is in the auctioneers'

0:31:050:31:08

care, the auctioneers pay out a insurance settlement.

0:31:080:31:12

And I'm going to ask Philip Serrell what the mustard pot has

0:31:120:31:16

lost in the way of value as a result of the spoon being lost.

0:31:160:31:21

And then you can decide

0:31:210:31:22

-whether you're going to go with the bonus buy or not.

-OK.

0:31:220:31:24

-Are you with it? Everybody happy?

-We get the message.

0:31:240:31:27

You get the message.

0:31:270:31:29

Anyway, standby, girls, cos right now, we are

0:31:290:31:31

going to let the auctioneer have a look at the watering can

0:31:310:31:35

mustard and give us his valuation of the insurance loss. Thanks, girls.

0:31:350:31:40

-Thank you very much.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

0:31:400:31:42

There is the sweetest of sweetest watering-can-form mustard pots.

0:31:420:31:48

-Lovely, isn't it?

-Isn't that lovely?

0:31:480:31:49

Now, I've got a bit of a problem here.

0:31:490:31:51

Once upon a time, Kate Bliss bought this with a matching spoon

0:31:510:31:55

and, unfortunately, in transit, the spoon has got lost.

0:31:550:31:59

So, I have to ask you, how much do you think not having

0:31:590:32:03

the spoon is likely to affect the end value?

0:32:030:32:08

-I would think it is going to knock 25 quid off.

-OK.

0:32:080:32:12

-Thereabouts, 25 quid.

-Well, I'll tell the team,

0:32:120:32:15

if they go with the bonus buy, that they

0:32:150:32:18

will have a credit of £25. Do think that is fair?

0:32:180:32:20

I think that is very fair.

0:32:200:32:21

-And I mean, I valued it, as it is there, at sort of £60 to £90.

-OK.

0:32:210:32:26

-So, we've got an estimate of 60 to 90.

-Yep.

0:32:260:32:28

There will be this insurance settlement.

0:32:280:32:30

I'll explain that to the team before you sell it.

0:32:300:32:33

-Otherwise, you are standing by, right?

-Absolutely.

0:32:330:32:35

Glad to hear it. Good luck.

0:32:350:32:37

-Kevin, Adam, how are you feeling?

-Pretty well.

-Yeah, confident.

0:32:420:32:46

A bit of brotherly companionship going on here?

0:32:460:32:49

Yeah, we were talking about it and going over some of the items.

0:32:490:32:51

-You nervous, Adam, or what?

-Not really.

-Not really.

0:32:510:32:54

Pretty cool, these guys. Well done, chaps.

0:32:540:32:57

This is exciting. A lovely, eclectic mix.

0:32:570:32:59

First up are your number plates from Canada, and here they come.

0:32:590:33:02

The car registration plates, put them in the bidding, start me off.

0:33:020:33:06

Who has got a tenner?

0:33:060:33:08

Right. 10, on bid, at 10. 12.

0:33:080:33:10

15. 15. 18.

0:33:100:33:12

-You're in profit.

-25. At 25.

0:33:120:33:15

The book is out.

0:33:150:33:16

At 25, is there anymore at all?

0:33:160:33:19

At 25.

0:33:190:33:20

It's your bid at £25.

0:33:200:33:22

Is there any more?

0:33:220:33:23

At £25, and done, thank you.

0:33:230:33:26

-Very nice, £13 straight up.

-Fantastic. Well done.

0:33:260:33:29

Now, the dentist's chair.

0:33:290:33:31

-This is going to be fine, standby.

-This will be interesting.

0:33:310:33:34

It is the dentist's chair.

0:33:340:33:36

-Who has got £100 for the dentist's chair?

-Come on.

0:33:360:33:40

Has anybody not got a dentist's chair?

0:33:400:33:42

LAUGHTER

0:33:420:33:44

Oh, come on!

0:33:440:33:46

£30 for the dentist's chair.

0:33:460:33:48

Go on. Go on!

0:33:480:33:51

This is terrible!

0:33:510:33:52

Have we got £20 for the dentist's chair?

0:33:520:33:55

Who has got a tenner for the dentist's chair?

0:33:550:33:57

-Oh, no!

-No! Surely...

0:33:570:33:59

Ten on bid, at ten. Ten bid.

0:33:590:34:02

-See, there.

-15.

0:34:020:34:03

20 on the net, is it?

0:34:030:34:05

One more on the net, surely.

0:34:050:34:07

I've got 15 in the room.

0:34:070:34:08

At £15 only. At 15.

0:34:080:34:10

Is there any more?

0:34:100:34:11

At £15, and I sell then

0:34:110:34:14

at £15. And done. Thank you.

0:34:140:34:16

£15! That is minus £45.

0:34:160:34:21

Now, here comes the trunk.

0:34:210:34:23

156 is this really lovely cabin trunk.

0:34:230:34:26

There you are. Give me £30.

0:34:260:34:28

That's for nothing.

0:34:280:34:29

£30 for a cabin trunk.

0:34:290:34:31

Who has got £20?

0:34:310:34:32

-£20 to start.

-Come on.

0:34:320:34:34

-Who has got a tenner?

-I'm going to cry.

-So am I.

0:34:340:34:37

Can I see 15? 20, sir? Five now?

0:34:370:34:41

20 bid in the room. At 20. 20 bid.

0:34:410:34:43

At £20 only. It is your bid.

0:34:430:34:46

At £20, right at the back,

0:34:460:34:48

and I sell then at £20.

0:34:480:34:50

And done. Thank you.

0:34:500:34:52

-Oh, my goodness, boys!

-£20 is £80.

0:34:520:34:55

Now, you had £13.

0:34:550:34:57

You made a loss of £45,

0:34:570:34:59

which gave you minus £32.

0:34:590:35:01

You just lost another £80.

0:35:010:35:04

So I make that minus 112.

0:35:040:35:08

-Aw.

-Minus 112.

0:35:080:35:10

So, what are you going to do about the trumpet?

0:35:100:35:12

We'll take it, yeah. Might take it down to 100, minus 100.

0:35:120:35:16

-You don't have to have it, you know.

-You don't have to love it.

0:35:160:35:19

Let's make that a round figure.

0:35:190:35:20

-Seriously, is that what you want to do?

-We'll take it.

-Are you sure?

0:35:210:35:24

-Yeah.

-Are you sure?

-Why not?

0:35:240:35:27

We are going to go with the bonus buy, and here it comes.

0:35:270:35:29

Lot number 160 is the Hawkes & Son trumpet.

0:35:290:35:33

The Clippertone, there you are.

0:35:330:35:35

Well, I've got bids here,

0:35:350:35:36

so I start at £20. Bid at 20.

0:35:360:35:38

20 bid. Five. 35. 40, sir? 40.

0:35:380:35:41

Well done, Cristina.

0:35:410:35:43

You are in profit, sweetie.

0:35:430:35:44

£40 there. Five on the net. At 45.

0:35:440:35:46

50 on the net. At 50 on the net bid.

0:35:460:35:49

55 on the net.

0:35:490:35:50

At 55 on the net.

0:35:500:35:52

Clearly they are very popular,

0:35:520:35:54

Clippertone. At 55. 60 on the net.

0:35:540:35:57

At £60 here on the net. At 60.

0:35:570:36:00

Here's the bid. Any more at all?

0:36:000:36:01

At £60, on the net.

0:36:010:36:03

And I sell then at £60.

0:36:030:36:06

And done. Thank you.

0:36:060:36:07

£60, how brilliant is that?

0:36:070:36:09

OK, that is plus 22.

0:36:090:36:11

That takes you down to zero there.

0:36:110:36:15

You are minus 90.

0:36:150:36:16

That is quite respectable, really, isn't it?

0:36:160:36:18

-That is not bad for Bargain Hunt.

-Don't be like that.

0:36:180:36:21

But what an exciting journey, eh?

0:36:210:36:23

We were up, we were down, we clawed a bit back.

0:36:230:36:26

-The voyage of life happens on this programme.

-Exactly.

0:36:260:36:30

OK, chaps, could be a winning score.

0:36:300:36:32

Don't say a word to the Blues, all right?

0:36:320:36:34

And all will be revealed in a moment.

0:36:340:36:36

-Well, girls, been talking to the boys?

-No. Absolutely not.

0:36:410:36:46

We don't want you to either.

0:36:460:36:48

Now, Bets, the tap, you paid £5 for,

0:36:480:36:51

Philip has estimated £5 to £10 for.

0:36:510:36:54

-Right.

-Anyway, the second item is the biscuit box. £28 paid.

0:36:540:36:59

He has estimated £15 to £30.

0:36:590:37:01

And then you got the shooting stick, £55 paid,

0:37:010:37:04

he has estimated £30 to £50.

0:37:040:37:06

-OK? So I would say, girls, it's pretty cool for you lot.

-Right.

0:37:060:37:10

Anyway, if all does not go to plan,

0:37:100:37:13

you've got the opportunity of going for the mustard pot novelty.

0:37:130:37:18

Now, I have consulted with Philip Serrell

0:37:180:37:20

and the insurance amount for the spoon being now lacking

0:37:200:37:26

is £25.

0:37:260:37:27

So, anything over 100 will be your profit, if you go with it.

0:37:270:37:31

Now, your first item is the beer tap. Let's hope you get a pint.

0:37:310:37:35

Lot number 173 is the brass beer barrel tap inscribed Victory.

0:37:350:37:41

Who has got a fiver?

0:37:410:37:43

Five, on bid at five.

0:37:430:37:45

At £5. Five bid.

0:37:450:37:48

£5. Is there any more?

0:37:480:37:50

At £5, and I sell then...

0:37:500:37:52

Eight. Eight bid, ten.

0:37:520:37:53

Oh, yes, you are in profit!

0:37:530:37:55

-Well done!

-Well done indeed!

0:37:550:37:58

At ten on bid. It is your bid.

0:37:580:38:00

At £10. £10 seated.

0:38:000:38:03

Ten. 12. 15?

0:38:030:38:05

-Hey!

-At £12, right at the back.

0:38:050:38:08

And done at 12. And done.

0:38:080:38:10

£12, that is marvellous, isn't it?

0:38:100:38:13

That is plus £7.

0:38:130:38:16

OK, now, the biscuit box.

0:38:160:38:18

There we go, the biscuit box.

0:38:180:38:19

Bid me for that, someone. £20 to start.

0:38:190:38:22

Bid me a tenner to start then,

0:38:240:38:25

quickly. Ten anywhere.

0:38:250:38:27

Surely £10.

0:38:270:38:28

Well, who has got a fiver?

0:38:290:38:31

Five. On bid at five.

0:38:310:38:32

Five bid. Who has got eight now?

0:38:320:38:34

At eight. Eight bid. Ten.

0:38:340:38:35

Ten bid. 12 now?

0:38:350:38:37

12. 12 bid.

0:38:370:38:39

12, surely. Is there any more?

0:38:400:38:42

At £12 in the white shirt.

0:38:420:38:45

Done then at £12. Done, thank you.

0:38:450:38:48

£12 is minus £16.

0:38:480:38:51

-Sorry about that.

-That's all right.

0:38:510:38:54

Lot number 175 is the shooting stick.

0:38:540:38:57

A bit of interest.

0:38:570:38:58

I've got £10. Bid at ten.

0:38:580:39:00

20. Five. 30.

0:39:000:39:02

30 bid. £30. Five. 35. 40.

0:39:020:39:04

-40 bid. And five.

-Come on, go, go!

0:39:040:39:08

At 50 bid. 50. 50 bid.

0:39:080:39:10

Any more at all? At £50, and I sell.

0:39:100:39:13

-Uh-oh.

-Oh!

0:39:130:39:15

At 50 and done. Thank you.

0:39:150:39:17

-£50 is minus

-£5. So close.

0:39:170:39:20

-Which means overall, you are minus £14.

-Not too bad.

0:39:200:39:24

Now, the big decision is this - you could part minus £14.

0:39:240:39:27

That could be a winning score.

0:39:270:39:29

Or you could risk effectively £100 on the novelty mustard.

0:39:290:39:36

It's up to you. Do you want to go for it? I don't.

0:39:360:39:40

Well... Hm.

0:39:400:39:42

-We'll stick.

-Yeah, we're going to stick.

-Yeah.

0:39:420:39:44

I think Betty'd quite like to have a go. Wouldn't you, Bets?

0:39:440:39:47

-It's lovely.

-You want to have a go?

-Yes.

-Go.

-Well, no.

-Go.

0:39:470:39:51

-I mean, it is never easy, a split decision.

-No, it isn't.

0:39:520:39:56

We have the complication of the spoon,

0:39:560:39:58

but on the other hand, the watering can mustard is quite a rare thing.

0:39:580:40:04

-And it is quite pretty.

-It is.

-We'll go for it then.

-Yes?

-Yeah.

0:40:040:40:07

-We're going to do it?

-Yes.

-Yes.

-Both feet in?

-Yes.

-A quick jump?

-Yes.

0:40:070:40:12

-With boots on.

-Boots on. We have a decision.

0:40:120:40:16

We are going with the bonus buy. And here it comes.

0:40:160:40:20

Lot number 179, a really lovely thing, actually.

0:40:200:40:23

A little silver watering can.

0:40:230:40:25

And I have got one, two,

0:40:250:40:27

three, four commission bids.

0:40:270:40:29

-They finish at £110.

-Yes!

0:40:290:40:32

-Yes!

-Well done, girls.

0:40:320:40:34

-Good decision!

-Good decision.

0:40:340:40:36

I'll take 20 anywhere. 120.

0:40:360:40:39

-Five I have.

-Hey.

0:40:390:40:41

130 on the net, bid at 130.

0:40:410:40:44

Any more? At £130 only.

0:40:440:40:46

Is there any more? At £130,

0:40:460:40:48

and done. Thank you.

0:40:480:40:50

By the time we have applied the insurance settlement,

0:40:500:40:53

that means you are £30 up.

0:40:530:40:55

You were minus 14 before,

0:40:550:40:56

which means you are now plus 16.

0:40:560:40:59

How good is that? You are going home with folding money. £16.

0:40:590:41:02

-£8 each.

-£8 each.

0:41:020:41:05

This could be a winning score, so say not a word to the boys.

0:41:050:41:08

Good decision. Well done, Kate.

0:41:080:41:11

And all will be revealed in a moment.

0:41:110:41:13

Right. Well, teams, this is exciting, isn't it?

0:41:180:41:21

-Have you been chatting?

-ALL: No.

-About the score?

-GIRLS: No.

0:41:210:41:25

Cos I know you got on incredibly well on today's

0:41:250:41:28

programme, haven't you? We have spanned the generations here

0:41:280:41:31

and you guys have all been absolutely marvellous.

0:41:310:41:33

Sadly, on the programme, somebody has to win

0:41:330:41:36

and somebody has to be the runner-up.

0:41:360:41:38

And the runners-up today by a massive gulf,

0:41:380:41:42

an unsustainable gulf, are the Reds.

0:41:420:41:45

Hey!

0:41:450:41:46

I mean, it started off beautifully.

0:41:460:41:48

You had plus £13 on those very nice registration plates.

0:41:480:41:53

And then it went right down the proverbial until you got to the

0:41:530:41:57

trumpet and Christina's bonus buy, which made a profit of £22.

0:41:570:42:00

But that, nevertheless,

0:42:000:42:02

didn't get you above a final number of minus 90.

0:42:020:42:04

Wow.

0:42:040:42:06

Which is quite a big old number, really.

0:42:060:42:09

But today, Issidy and Betty are actually going to go home

0:42:090:42:12

with £16.

0:42:120:42:13

-Thank you very much.

-There is your £16. There is 15 of them.

0:42:130:42:17

And here comes the other one.

0:42:170:42:19

You start out with a profit on your barrel tap

0:42:190:42:21

and then you do very, very badly

0:42:210:42:23

until along comes Kate with her mustard pot watering can jobbie,

0:42:230:42:28

which after a struggle with our spoon,

0:42:280:42:31

made you a profit of £30, which is absolutely marv. Now, Issidy,

0:42:310:42:34

I want to know, what has been the best bit of today's show for you?

0:42:340:42:38

-Just being here all day.

-Has that been great?

-Yes, it has.

0:42:380:42:42

-What about you, Bets?

-Seeing you, sir.

-Oh!

0:42:420:42:45

She's a creep.

0:42:450:42:46

THEY LAUGH

0:42:460:42:48

We have had... Everybody is so happy.

0:42:480:42:51

In fact, so happy, why don't you join us soon

0:42:510:42:54

for some more bargain-hunting, yes? Yes!
