Did you know that the first jar | 0:00:03 | 0:00:07 | |
of a well-known yeast spread was | 0:00:07 | 0:00:11 | |
produced here in Staffordshire, as a result of the by-product | 0:00:11 | 0:00:15 | |
of the brewing industry, nigh on 100 years ago? | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
Well, our teams today are going to love it in Staffordshire. Why? | 0:00:19 | 0:00:23 | |
Because let's go bargain hunting! | 0:00:23 | 0:00:26 | |
-Yeah! Mmm! -HE CRUNCHES TOAST | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
We're at the Stafford Showground, | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
with our two teams hot out of the stalls and raring to go. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:59 | |
They each get £300 and then are to shop for three items. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:03 | |
And then it'll be the first past the post to collect all that cash. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:09 | |
Let's take a sneaky peek as to what's coming up... | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
The Reds are blowing the budget. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
I'm afraid we've spent our money. We haven't got that much left. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:21 | |
While the Blues are counting the pennies... | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
-We've got to have you spend a bit more money, guys. -Ooh! | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
Come on, come on! | 0:01:26 | 0:01:27 | |
-Down at the auction, the Reds have gone a bit "hatty". -Go on! -Come on! | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
And the Blues are keeping tight-lipped. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
Let's meet today's teams. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:37 | |
Well, it's girls versus boys today, | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
with our ravishing ladies wearing red, Sue and Anne. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:46 | |
And for the Blues, it's Tex and Ren. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
-Hello, everyone! -Hi, Tim! -Hello! -Sue... | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
-Yes? -You are looking fantastic, girl! -Thank you! | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
So, what's all this red titfer business? | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Based loosely on Jenny Joseph's poem, Warning - | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
"When I'm an old lady, I shall wear purple and a red hat | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
"that doesn't suit and doesn't go. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:03 | |
"And spend a pension on brandy and we shall have no butter." | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
Ah... So, it's a rather disrespectful | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
Pensioners Association then, is it? | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
-Well, you could put it like that! -Ladies growing old disgracefully. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
Oh, how lovely! And you always go in this garb, with this colour scheme? | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
There's only two rules and one is, if you're out, you were purple clothes | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
-and a red hat... -Yes... -..and you have fun. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
OK, what sort of fun do you have then? | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
Well, we've done hot-air ballooning, | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
we've been on a trip to see the Northern Lights. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
-Gad about a bit then. -Mm! -Well, this is lovely, isn't it? | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
What about The Unruly And Cheeky Old Tarts? Where's that come from? | 0:02:35 | 0:02:40 | |
-THEY LAUGH You choose a silly name for your chapter. -Oh, do you? | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
And we tried to think of something that would encapsulate what we are. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:47 | |
Now, Anne, how did you two meet? Was it in a debauched state? | 0:02:47 | 0:02:53 | |
No, no, we were very sedate young ladies, 17 years ago, | 0:02:53 | 0:02:57 | |
-we met at work and then we became very great friends. -Brilliant. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
-Where did you work? -We work for our local GP. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:05 | |
What I CAN ask you about, though, is your hair-raising hobbies. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:09 | |
-Like what? -Like...parascending off perfectly good mountains | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
in New Zealand. Jumped off and he kept it up for 40 minutes. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
You came down smiling anyway. That was the main thing. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Very good. How are you going to get on, you two, today, | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
when it comes to buying all this stuff for Bargain Hunt? | 0:03:22 | 0:03:24 | |
Well, we're very hopeful, aren't we, Anne? | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
We work as a team at work, so we can work as a team here. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
Yeah, exactly. Anyway, welcome to Bargain Hunt. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
I think you'll do jolly well. Now, chaps! | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
We've got these regal queen bees here but it was actually | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
the Queen's Head that brought you together, wasn't it? | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
-Yes, it was, Tim. -Is that your boozer? -It was our local boozer. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:45 | |
-You've had all sorts of adventures together? -Yes, we have. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
We've been out for Ren's stag do, dressed as nurses, in full outfits. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:54 | |
-Really? -With smocks. -Smocks? -Wearing tights... -Miniskirts? | 0:03:54 | 0:03:59 | |
-Erm, so-high... -Fishnet tights? Really? -Yes. -That is real boy bonding, that, isn't it? | 0:03:59 | 0:04:06 | |
-Well, we have no shame! -No. But your career, Tex, should mean that you're | 0:04:06 | 0:04:11 | |
-very comfortable with our crew and all this stuff today. -Yes, yes. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
-It feels weird being THIS side of the camera... -What exactly do you do? | 0:04:15 | 0:04:19 | |
I'm a cameraman/vision mixer for a shopping channel here in the UK. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
-Brilliant. Ren, what you do for a living? -I'm an ambulance technician for West Midlands Ambulance Service. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:28 | |
And have you ever had any interesting callouts? | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
-From time to time I get called up to do something a bit more extraordinary. -Like what? | 0:04:31 | 0:04:36 | |
-I've boiled an egg for somebody and I've turned TVs off. -You ARE joking! | 0:04:36 | 0:04:42 | |
-No, no. -Do you not get cross as an ambulance man being called out to boil somebody's egg? | 0:04:42 | 0:04:46 | |
You calm down a bit when you realise they can't get out of their armchair. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
-Ah, yeah. -Their carers haven't turned up and they get a bit cross themselves. -Yes, exactly. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
-I mean, there are all those excuses, of course. And you're a bit of a grease monkey? -A little bit, yes. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:59 | |
-You ride a motorbicycle yourself? -I do, yes. I ride a Harley-Davidson. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
-And what's that called? -Erm, it's actually called a Fat Boy. -Oh, is it? -Yes. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
So, will you be buying "automobilia" today on Bargain Hunt, if you can find it? | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
If I see something that takes my fancy, I might do. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
What sort of things are going to rev your engines then, Tex? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
-Well, I like ceramics. I'll be keeping my eye out for a nice piece of ceramic. -OK, fine. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
Well, this is teamwork. I can see this building already. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
-Now, the money moment. Here's your £300. -Thank you. -Thank you. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
You know the rules, your experts await. And off you go! | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
And very, very good luck. Jolly nice red hats! | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
Let's meet today's experts. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
And another one with his hat on, it's Thomas Plant for the Reds. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
Hoping to ring up a profit for the Blues, it's Christina Trevanion. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
The hats are off and the Reds mean business. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
Now, what's on today's shopping list? | 0:05:48 | 0:05:50 | |
What are we going to be buying today? | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
-Something quirky, I think. -Quirky. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
Something that, sort of denotes our red hat quirkiness. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:57 | |
Christina has gone over to the dark side. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
I feel like I'm with a couple of super villains. Tex and Ren! | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:06:04 | 0:06:05 | |
-Something which reflects, you know, the red hat ladies. -Yes. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
What's our plan? | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
-Buy cheap, sell expensive. -Buy cheap, sell expensive. OK. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
OK, teams, hop it. Let's start the clock. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
-WHISTLE -Ribbit. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
-Let's go, come on. -THEY LAUGH | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
Let's go. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:22 | |
It is your show. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
Your chance to shine | 0:06:26 | 0:06:27 | |
-Yeah. -And I'd like to see your fresh eyes on stuff. -Oh, dear. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:31 | |
-My grandad used to make a lot of pottery. -Make it? -Yes. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
-Oh, fantastic. -So I've got a bit of a love, soft spot for pottery. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
-OK, all right, so if we look for some pottery. -Yes. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
And I'm thinking something medical. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:42 | |
-See what we find. -Yeah? -Yeah. -Let's see what we can find. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
Right, let's have a really good look around. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
The girls are already causing Tom some problems. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:51 | |
-Where are you going? -Can't see something... | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
-I leave you for five minutes... -Sorry, you said it was our show... -Yes, there you are, but... | 0:06:53 | 0:06:58 | |
..see everything, go round everything. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
Tex knows what he likes. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
-There's a vase on this table that's caught my eye. -This one here? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Oh, that is rather beautiful, isn't it? It's quite a late one. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
Originally it would've been made in a pair, | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
this wonderful baluster shape and really impressive, beautiful, sizeable pieces. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:15 | |
But I think without its pair, and quite late... | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
It's a very reasonable price, £65, | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
if we can get that down slightly that would be great, | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
-but it's a nice decorator's piece. -Sure. -OK? | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
-What would your best price be on this? DEALER: -I'll do it at 50. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
-50? -I still think that is quite top end for me. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:32 | |
-We'll leave that for now and we can come back... -I think it's a beautiful thing... | 0:07:32 | 0:07:36 | |
And it's blue, people like blue. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
They do like blue, absolutely. Great colours, yes. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
-We'll come back to this if we need to later. -Yes, great. -Righto then. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
But while one door closes for the Blues, | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
another door opens for the Reds. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
That's lovely. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:53 | |
The letter rack, yes? OK. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
-It's not quirky, but it's a bit of wood. -Yes. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-Why don't you pull out the draw at the bottom. -Yes, OK. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
This is when you get to see the real quality. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
Got to look at those dovetails here. Look at that craftsmanship, yes? | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
How old do you think it is? There's something on the top, | 0:08:06 | 0:08:10 | |
it's a bit of a clue, | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
to see how old it is. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
Actually in there. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:15 | |
In your own time, girls. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
Do you mean on the front there? | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
On the front, there's maybe numbers which tell you how old it is. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
-1897. -1897. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:08:24 | 0:08:25 | |
There you go. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:26 | |
-Do you know what happened in 1897? -No. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
I wasn't around. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:30 | |
Well, I wasn't insinuating you were around! | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
-Go on, then. -Diamond Jubilee. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:34 | |
The Jubilee in June 1897 | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
commemorated Queen Victoria's 60th year on the throne. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
How much is it? | 0:08:39 | 0:08:41 | |
-DEALER: -Well, absolute death, 150. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:43 | |
Are you sure that's the absolute? | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
130. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:47 | |
But that is it. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
-That is it, is it? -That is it. | 0:08:49 | 0:08:51 | |
-ANN: -Even for poor pensioners out for a good time? | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
Well, I think, you girls go and have a chat, go and have a chat | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
and I'm going to have a look, no, with the man, with the man... | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
That's it, Thomas. Keep those Reds in order. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
-ANN: Would you take 125? -No, honestly. -You really wouldn't? -Yes, truthfully. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |
-It's made for us, really. -Yes, I think so. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
They certainly seem to like it. What do you think, Tom? | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
The quality is second to none. I've not seen a better one. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
-I think we'll go for that. -Yes, we well. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:17 | |
The dovetail and the quality, thank you. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
-You have yourselves... -Got a deal, have we? | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
-ANN: -You have indeed, thank you so much. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
-I wish you all the best with it. -Thank you. -I think you'll do well with that. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
Well, £130, let's hope the deal is right on that one. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:31 | |
Well done, Reds. Now, how are those Blues getting on? | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
So, we've got here a wonderful stork or crane. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:38 | |
So, that's fantastic, isn't it? Great colours. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
OK, so he's been made in what we call slip mould, | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
so he's been made in a mould like that, OK? | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
So we've got this wonderful body here | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
and then he would've been glazed with these wonderful drizzle glazes and things. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:52 | |
As long as there's no breaks on the beak. TAPPING | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
So I'm just checking for some restoration...on the beak there | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
but he looks in excellent condition. Really does. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
That would look quite nice sat on a mantelpiece, or by a fireplace. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
Yeah, I mean, it's a piece of studio pottery. The price looks to be quite reasonable. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
The only thing that would put me off slightly is the colour. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
Maybe it's a little bit drab but we can't change that, | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
unless you want to get your paintbrush out. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:15 | |
-I think it's quite eye-catching. -Yeah? | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
I mean, it's quite sort of 60s-70s feel to it, in a way. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
It's a focal point. It would certainly get people talking. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
-Ren, what's your thoughts about our stork? -I actually like the colour. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:29 | |
-I know that would go very good next to my fireplace. -Oh, would it? -It would, yeah. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
-Oh. OK. Right. Shall we ask the price? -Yes, sure. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
-Go on, then, Tex. Go for it. -OK. -15 on that for you. -£15. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
What do you think of that, Christine? | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
I would say, he's got some very interesting things on his stall, | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
so maybe before we settle on one thing, | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
let's have look at the rest of the stall first. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
-I know you're very keen and eager. -I want to take him home! -I know. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
Cradle him with you! | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
I think Tex is hoping for a special delivery with | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
that stork. Let's see if the Reds have any new arrivals. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:58 | |
-You're ten minutes in, teams. -I like it because of the Dragon. -Yes. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
-The scales, the workmanship on it and it's raised. -Yes. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
My estimate at auction would be £40-60. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
-Well, let's think about it, then. -Yes. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:09 | |
-I mean, I think it's a very nice... -It is a nice...yes. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
Don't get me wrong. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
The Blues have found another item with a £25 ticket price. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:18 | |
What d'you think about the little antelope there? Or deer? | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |
-Is that floating your boat as much? -Not as much as the stork. -This is... | 0:11:22 | 0:11:26 | |
It's such a great colour, isn't it? | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
This wonderful sort of greenie, rich jade, malachi colour. Yeah. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
Very Art Deco, that sort of stylised figure there. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:33 | |
-It's really rather beautiful. -Almost Celtic. -Yeah, it is, exactly, yeah. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
-What do you think? -It's nice. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:40 | |
-Not as much as the stork? -I do like that one better. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:43 | |
-Stork or...stork or deer? Stork or deer? What do we think? -Deer. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
Dear, oh, dear! Looks like the Blues can't agree. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:51 | |
-We were going to give him the piece of pottery, weren't we? -Yeah. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
I think if you can get it for sort of £10 or £12, | 0:11:54 | 0:11:58 | |
-ie, it's less of a risk... -OK. -OK? -I shall try my best. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
Go on, Tex. Go on! | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
-Is he good at dealing? -Yeah. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:06 | |
-Would you be able to go any lower on the stork? Yes. -£12? | 0:12:06 | 0:12:10 | |
I think I paid about £12 for it. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
-Go on! -What did I quote you before? | 0:12:13 | 0:12:16 | |
-Ten. -Fif... -Ten! | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:12:18 | 0:12:19 | |
15 before. Three pounds. Please! | 0:12:19 | 0:12:23 | |
-Go on, then. -Thank you. -£12. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:24 | |
That's brilliant. Yay! First one down. Well done, team. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:29 | |
At last. Let's hope it takes flight at auction, lads. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
So, guys. We've had 16 of our 60 minutes, a quarter of our time gone. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
We've got one thing, which is fantastic | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
but I would quite like to get something for Ren now. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
-It's only fair. -He's been quite quiet so far, hasn't it? -Yes. He's not normally this shy and retiring. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:46 | |
-Is he not? -No. -Tell you what. Why don't we go through to this hall, and see what's through here? -OK. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:51 | |
While they find something nice for Ren, Thomas | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
and the girls are working up quite a thirst. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
-Oh, you'd like that. -We don't drink beer, though. -We're not German. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
-Why not? -We drink wine. It's a bit big for a glass of wine. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:04 | |
-Do you think? -Well, I don't know. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:05 | |
You'd have a good time if you drank all of that in wine. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
This is what we call a tankard. Tankards have lids, mugs don't. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
It's got a porcelain top of a, you know, | 0:13:12 | 0:13:13 | |
a rather elegant-looking gentleman there with flowers in his hair and | 0:13:13 | 0:13:18 | |
a glass of red and...a bit like a member of one of your team, really. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
-Absolutely. -I adore red wine. -You enjoy red wine, naturally. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:26 | |
So this is flashed glass, made in Bohemia, | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
-or Germany - in probably Bohemia. -So it's German. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:32 | |
It's quite a good fun thing. Now, I would work at this price. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
-Yeah, yeah. -It's a lot of money to begin with. -Yes. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
And I think you need to talk to the lady to see what you can do. Have a word. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
-I will certainly have a word. -I could go down to 70 and that would be it. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
That's it. You see, it's not profitable at £70. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
-No, not profitable at 70. If it was 40, yes. -Yes. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:52 | |
-It's worth buying at 40. But not at...not at... -No. Fine. -Thank you. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:58 | |
You've got to be...you've got to be tough, ladies, and you've got to...I like your bangle, madam. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:02 | |
-Oh, thank you. -Could we buy that? | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
-It's not for sale, not for sale. -That's a shame, | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
we want to buy the bangle. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:07 | |
No bangle and no tankard for the Reds. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
Come on, teams - | 0:14:09 | 0:14:10 | |
you've still got two items to go. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
We're looking for something medical, aren't we? | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
-Maybe something medical, yeah. -Cos you're our ambulance men. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
-I've just seen something medical. -You've seen something medical? | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
Oh, what's that? | 0:14:23 | 0:14:24 | |
Here's one. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:25 | |
Shall we see if there's any reflexes? | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
-At this time of the day? -Probably not. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
What have you seen, Thomas? | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
This is quite good a good-looking trunk. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:35 | |
What you think of that? | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
-Yeah. -It's nice, lovely slight dome to the top. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:40 | |
I like the decoration. Are you just going to lift it up? | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
You got brass handles, you've got a slip-in drawer. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:46 | |
What's the price on the trunk? | 0:14:46 | 0:14:47 | |
130? | 0:14:49 | 0:14:50 | |
-£100, I think we'd go for it. -110 and you've got a deal. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
What I like about it is it's got that... | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
-Can we just have a look at the base? I'd quite like to... -Yes, of course. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
-Let me move out of the way. -Look at that. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:01 | |
Look at these old rollers here, these hidden rollers. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:06 | |
That's nice. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:07 | |
-SELLER: This looks like a ship's piece. -It's got a real look to it. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:11 | |
It's almost a campaign look - | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
military expeditions as well, biological, scientific. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:18 | |
-What do you think? -It's a nice piece of furniture. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
I quite like the shape. | 0:15:21 | 0:15:22 | |
I would say it's a stained beech and inside... | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
-SELLER: I think it's walnut. -It's walnut, yeah. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
And what's this here? | 0:15:28 | 0:15:29 | |
Like a pine, a pine inlay. I love these handles. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:32 | |
This is Victorian. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:33 | |
Quite a good thing, good quality. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
-A beautiful piece. -Good quality, unusual. -Yeah. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:39 | |
That's got a chance of making money | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
-and you've got a lot there for your money. -Right, yes. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:45 | |
I think you could do worse than that. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:48 | |
Right. What was your best price again? | 0:15:48 | 0:15:50 | |
-Best price is £100. -100? Done. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:53 | |
-£100. -That is to you. -Done. -OK. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
-SUE: Done for the Red Hat ladies. -Thank you. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:56 | |
Another big bit of furniture - now, can we look for something pretty? | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
Yes. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
Thomas is certainly taken by the big old trunk. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
Well done, Red Hatters - that's your second item. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
How do you feel, team? | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
Having seen those two items, | 0:16:09 | 0:16:14 | |
we just had to have them. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
There's been a little cajoling from me, I have to say... | 0:16:15 | 0:16:18 | |
maybe pointing... | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
which is good | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
but also bad because I think they want to buy something pretty | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
and we both bought two masculine items. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:27 | |
While they're looking for a winner at the fair, let me show you | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
something that's always a big hit in the auction room - | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
a gavel. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:35 | |
It's the symbol of all auctioneers. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:39 | |
This particular example is most beautifully made, | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
it's made of a hardwood. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
It's not ebony | 0:16:45 | 0:16:46 | |
but it's got a reddish tinge | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
and I think it's probably a Chinese hardwood called zitan. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:55 | |
There's one very unusual feature about this particular gavel | 0:16:55 | 0:17:00 | |
and you have to look carefully on the end. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
Look at that - what is stamped in to the wood? | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
It is a miniature crown. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
Which gavel makers are there who stamp gavels with crowns like this? | 0:17:09 | 0:17:15 | |
I know of none... | 0:17:15 | 0:17:18 | |
but I do know this mark as being associated | 0:17:18 | 0:17:22 | |
with a particularly fine chesspiece manufacturer called Staunton's. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:28 | |
They made chesspieces in the 19th century | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
of exceptional quality in boxwood and ebony and ivory | 0:17:31 | 0:17:35 | |
and I reckon this is quite a rarity. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
Now, the dealer here in Stafford who showed me this piece | 0:17:39 | 0:17:43 | |
also said in the same lot, he bought this object. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:47 | |
I can tell you this has nothing to do with auctioneering - | 0:17:47 | 0:17:51 | |
although there is a similarity | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
because we've got, again, a high-quality turned handle | 0:17:53 | 0:17:57 | |
but it then extends into a silver column | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
with a terminal in the form of a crown. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |
It's called a tipstaff. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:06 | |
It's an object which you would hold in an official capacity, | 0:18:06 | 0:18:11 | |
perhaps as part of an ancient city livery company | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
or as an alderman in a council - | 0:18:14 | 0:18:16 | |
whoever it is, would hold the little tipstaff like that | 0:18:16 | 0:18:20 | |
and all the people in the meeting or the public parade | 0:18:20 | 0:18:24 | |
would know that this is a person with some status. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
Which particular office is this tipstaff associated with? | 0:18:27 | 0:18:32 | |
I haven't got the faintest idea. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:33 | |
You'd need to do a certain amount of research | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
which is, after all, part of the fun of this game. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:40 | |
What I can tell you is, though, you have to make a snappy decision. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:44 | |
Are you going to invest £150 in these two objects? | 0:18:44 | 0:18:49 | |
If the gavel is Staunton, | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
then it's certainly going to be of interest to a whole tribe of folk | 0:18:52 | 0:18:56 | |
in the chesspiece collecting community | 0:18:56 | 0:18:58 | |
and this thing could be worth anywhere between £150-£250. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:04 | |
The tipstaff? | 0:19:04 | 0:19:05 | |
Well, that's just in it for the bunce. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
Now, how are the teams getting on with the shop? | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
Have the Blues found something to get Ren's heart racing yet? | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
-Oh, yeah, look at that. -Yeah. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
A first-aid box. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
-Look at that, that's very appropriate. -Yeah. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
Do you ever get these in the ambulance? | 0:19:22 | 0:19:24 | |
Ours tend to be a little bit bigger and made of plastic. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:26 | |
-Oh, do they? -Yeah. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:27 | |
That's quite fun though, isn't it? I mean, how appropriate for you | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
to have a look at that. It's got First Aid on the top | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
and then we've got here, | 0:19:32 | 0:19:33 | |
"Manufacturing chemist, Nottingham," so a nice British piece, | 0:19:33 | 0:19:38 | |
obviously red interior there | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
so you've got all your different compartments... | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
-Still functional. -Still functional and it's a nice vintage piece. -Yeah. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:45 | |
If you can get that for not very much, | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
-I think that's very appropriate for you. -Thank you. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
-What do you think, Tex? -Go for it. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:51 | |
-I love it. -Yeah? -It's straight up his street so... | 0:19:51 | 0:19:54 | |
It is, exactly. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:55 | |
You probably wouldn't use it these days on the ambulance though. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
No, not on an ambulance, no. Definitely a home thing. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
-Five or ten pounds... -Yeah. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:02 | |
-I don't think you can go wrong. -OK. -All right? -Yeah. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
Ooh, wish him luck. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
Hiya, mate. I spotted this, | 0:20:07 | 0:20:08 | |
what's the best price you could do on that for me? | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
The very, very... I'll kill you for it, is 15. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:14 | |
£15. Well, I think as a novelty thing, it's not bad at £15. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:19 | |
I don't think we're going to make a huge amount of profit on it | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
if we make any profit at all, to be honest. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
-What about 12? -Go on, 12. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:25 | |
-£12, guys. -Anything for the pretty face. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:28 | |
Steady. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:29 | |
-TEX: Oh, thank you! -What do we think, guys? | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
-Ren's choice. -It's Ren's choice. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:32 | |
-£12. -Are you happy, Ren? -I'm happy with that, yeah. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
-Sure? -Yeah, definitely. -Let's shake the man's hand. Fantastic. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
-Whoop, there you go. -Thank you. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
An early first-aid tin for our Blue boys. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:43 | |
Let's hope it's not a quick fix. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:45 | |
Are we thinking that we might spend a bit more now | 0:20:45 | 0:20:47 | |
cos we haven't spent a lot yet really, have we? | 0:20:47 | 0:20:49 | |
-No, we've been quite conservative so far. -You have been | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
quite conservative. I suppose we're sticking to the plan, aren't we? | 0:20:51 | 0:20:54 | |
-Yeah. -I should like this because it leaves me quite a lot of money | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
-at the end but I feel like we need to spend a bit more money, guys. -Oh. | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
Come on, come on. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:01 | |
While the Blues refuse to splash the cash, | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
the Reds are having quite the opposite problem. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
-This is by Royal Worcester. -Yes. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
Royal Worcester, a premier factory. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:12 | |
I love the orange, | 0:21:12 | 0:21:13 | |
the burnt orange against the dripping fire of the gold. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:17 | |
-What's your very best on that? -SELLER: 100. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:19 | |
£100, £100. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
-We haven't got that much, have we? -I don't think we've got that much, | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
-have we? -No. -No. I'm afraid we've spent our money, | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
we haven't got that much left. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:28 | |
MUSIC: Big Spender by Shirley Bassey | 0:21:28 | 0:21:30 | |
Those Reds are going to blow their entire budget | 0:21:30 | 0:21:32 | |
if they carry on like this. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:33 | |
Meanwhile, the thrifty Blues are still not impressing Christina | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
with their frugal choices. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
-They look very modern, I think we'll leave those there. -OK. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:42 | |
That told them. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:43 | |
How do you think it's going, boys? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:44 | |
It's going very well. We've made some good decisions, | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
got some good purchases, we're happy so... | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
We're sticking to the plan, buying cheap. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:50 | |
It's quite exciting. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
No, really decisive, | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
we haven't spent a lot of money at all | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
so I think we probably want to start thinking about | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
spending a little bit of money - I mean, we've only got one thing left | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
and when you get the chance to come out with so much money | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
to an antiques fair. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:05 | |
I'd like them to spend a bit of money if we can. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:07 | |
Good luck with that, Christina. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:08 | |
Now, there's 20 minutes left of the shop. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
Have the Reds found a third item? | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
I like this Crown Devon set here... | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
and what do you think this is for? | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
-Coffee. -Coffee. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:17 | |
Coffee. Date? | 0:22:17 | 0:22:20 | |
I would think it's got to be turn-of-the-century, just after. | 0:22:20 | 0:22:23 | |
-Yeah, 1920, 1925. -'20s, yeah. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:25 | |
It's about that sort of date. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:26 | |
It's by Royal Crown Devon, Staffordshire, yeah? | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
-Good factory. -A great factory. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:33 | |
It's got these applied jewels of enamel to the powder blue | 0:22:33 | 0:22:37 | |
with the flowers and the lovely bird decoration | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
against that powder blue which is very attractive. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:45 | |
SELLER: I've got £95 on that. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:47 | |
Without any argument, £75 for that. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
-We haven't got 75. -No, sorry. -65 and you've got a deal. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:54 | |
SELLER: We can't do 65. It actually is too near my own price. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:59 | |
68? | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
-Go on, then, 68. -68. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:03 | |
-Thank you. -You're going to go with that? | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
-OK, ta, yes. -I think we'll go with that. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
Hooray - | 0:23:07 | 0:23:08 | |
that's a third purchase for our red hat ladies. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:11 | |
Big spenders, those girls. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
MUSIC CONTINUES | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
# Hey, big spender | 0:23:15 | 0:23:16 | |
# Spend a little time with me... # | 0:23:16 | 0:23:22 | |
With one item to go and less than 15 minutes on the clock, | 0:23:22 | 0:23:26 | |
Christina's determined to buy big for the Blues. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
-These are quite interesting, guys. -Very kitsch. -Very, very cool. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
-Very in trend. -..kitchen. They are very in vogue right now, | 0:23:32 | 0:23:36 | |
they really are. Fantastic. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
These are 1950s... 1940s-1950s kitchen cabinets | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
so this would have been the equivalent of a fitted kitchen, OK? | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
-They look very familiar. -Really? Did you have any at home? | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
No, but I've been to many houses that have had them. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
It's also got a brand name there as well so it's great to have that | 0:23:50 | 0:23:54 | |
especially with online bidding to get people attracted to it. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:58 | |
It just goes on and on and on - look at all the storage. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
Christina sees herself as quite the domestic goddess. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
..a housewife in the 1950s, I mean this would have been... | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
-That would have been like the TARDIS for her. -Exactly. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:09 | |
-Shall we can ask a price on it? -Yeah. -Yeah, sure. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
-OK, you stand by it, don't let anyone else look at it... -Guard it. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:14 | |
..and I'll go and ask a price, OK? | 0:24:14 | 0:24:15 | |
-Yeah, guard it, hide it, hide it. -Quickly, quickly. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
And they're certainly the right lads for the job. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
-CHRISTINA: -Oh, hello, Red Team. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:22 | |
-How are the Blues doing? -Brilliant. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
We're home, hosed, bathed and ready. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
I don't think I like the idea of Thomas in the bath. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
I think being as though they finished first, | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
-they should buy the tea. -I think that's a very good idea! | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
I don't think so, no... | 0:24:34 | 0:24:36 | |
-Good luck. -And you. -We'll see you for a cup of tea. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
-Yes. Sorry to crash your party. -No, don't worry, any time. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:43 | |
The red team's all finished. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:45 | |
Now, how about that price, Christina? | 0:24:45 | 0:24:46 | |
-No-one else has bought it in the meantime, have they? -No, no. -We scared them off. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:50 | |
I think he was asking 120-something, | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
he says he'll take 115 - he drives a very, very hard bargain. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
I think it stands... I think it could make you a profit at auction. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
I think they're very in vogue right now. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:00 | |
How much do you think it's looking at at auction? | 0:25:00 | 0:25:02 | |
Well, I sold a not very nice one | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
at an auction a few weeks ago for £90. | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
I think we should risk it. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:09 | |
-We'll give it a risk. -You wanted to spend big... -Risk it for a biscuit. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
-Yeah. -I think it's quite cool, I think you guys are quite cool. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
-Yeah. -Spend big - it's big. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:16 | |
-Yes, let's do it. -£115, that is our third and final item. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
-Well done. -I'm breaking out into a sweat - £115. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:22 | |
Checkmate - | 0:25:22 | 0:25:23 | |
time's up. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:24 | |
-I think we should go for cup of tea. -I think you're absolutely right. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:27 | |
-Come on, let's go for a cup of tea. -Definitely. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |
Yeah, get the kettle on - | 0:25:29 | 0:25:31 | |
I'm feeling a bit parched myself. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:32 | |
Let's check out what the Reds bought. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |
They opened with a Victorian oak stationery compendium for £130, | 0:25:35 | 0:25:40 | |
They packed £100 in to this campaign trunk | 0:25:40 | 0:25:45 | |
and they poured away £68 on an exotic bird coffee set. | 0:25:45 | 0:25:50 | |
Hats off to the gals - | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
whoops, I mean hats on again. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:54 | |
'Ha - will they make up their minds?' | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
Sue, Anne, | 0:25:56 | 0:25:57 | |
the plan didn't work out exactly, did it? | 0:25:57 | 0:25:59 | |
-No, not quite. -No, but you had a good time though? | 0:25:59 | 0:26:02 | |
-We had a wonderful time. -Susan, what is your favourite piece? | 0:26:02 | 0:26:05 | |
-The coffee set. -Is it? Oh, good. What about you, Annie? | 0:26:05 | 0:26:08 | |
Absolutely unanimous, | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
the coffee set is absolutely lovely. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:11 | |
Right, is the coffee set going to bring the biggest profit? | 0:26:11 | 0:26:14 | |
-No, I don't think so. -What will, then? | 0:26:14 | 0:26:16 | |
-I think the stationery box... -And I think the chest. | 0:26:16 | 0:26:19 | |
There we go, we have a split prediction there | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
-and you spent up magnificently, I know. -We did. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
-Remind me how much again. -We spent £298. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:28 | |
You are quite magnificent, you girls. £298 is the right answer. | 0:26:28 | 0:26:32 | |
-Can I have two pounds, please? -You may. -Two pounds only. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:35 | |
Now, Thomas Plant loves a challenge. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
What are you going to do, Tom? Come on. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
Do you know, it is impossible. It is such a challenge | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
-but I'm up for it... -Good. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
-..I've no idea what you're going to end up with. -£100, I hope! | 0:26:45 | 0:26:49 | |
-I hope so, I really... That would be marvellous. -Wouldn't it? | 0:26:49 | 0:26:52 | |
Well, it's the ultimate challenge, Tom, and I know no better man | 0:26:52 | 0:26:56 | |
to pick up the baton. Well done, Thomas. | 0:26:56 | 0:26:59 | |
Meanwhile, why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought, eh? | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
They flew off with a bargain pottery stork for £12, | 0:27:03 | 0:27:08 | |
and early first-aid tin came to the rescue, also at £12, | 0:27:08 | 0:27:14 | |
and they fitted in a 1950s kitchen cabinet for £115. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:19 | |
OK, Ren, Tex - | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
sounds like a type of paint, doesn't it? | 0:27:21 | 0:27:23 | |
-Did you have fun? -Yes. -Yes, it was great fun, Tim. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:25 | |
Very entertaining shopping. So, Ren, which is your favourite piece? | 0:27:25 | 0:27:29 | |
I'm torn between my first-aid box and Tex's stork. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:33 | |
I think I'm leaning towards liking Tex's stork quite well. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:37 | |
And what about you, Tex? | 0:27:37 | 0:27:38 | |
Mine was my stork. It leapt out at me, I fell in love with it instantly. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:42 | |
OK. Is he going to bring the biggest profit, your stork? | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
-Probably not. -No? | 0:27:45 | 0:27:46 | |
-It's more sentimental than anything. -All right, fair enough, | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
so what is going to bring the biggest profit? | 0:27:49 | 0:27:51 | |
-The kitchen units that Christina picked for us. -Yeah? | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
-You'll hate it. -Trust your expert. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
-How much did you spend, chaps? -£139. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:59 | |
£139 - so that's one off 40 so that would be £161, please. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:03 | |
-Yes. -161 - | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
-it's quite a heap of money, this, isn't it? -There's 160... | 0:28:06 | 0:28:08 | |
-160, one to come... -..and the one. | 0:28:08 | 0:28:10 | |
-..there we go. -Why, thank you. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:12 | |
Now, Christina, my darling, what have you got in mind? | 0:28:12 | 0:28:15 | |
It's all been very masculine and very male | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
so I think it might have to be some jewellery. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
TEX GASPS | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
-Look, I've got so much money to spend. -You have. -Spend wisely. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:25 | |
-OK, will do. -I can see you're itching to go. -Seriously. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:28 | |
Well, whatever you do, you're going to have to go smartly because we, | 0:28:28 | 0:28:31 | |
right now, are getting ready to shuffle off to the auction. | 0:28:31 | 0:28:35 | |
Well, I can't tell you how excited I am to be in Lichfield. | 0:28:44 | 0:28:47 | |
Gosh, it is a lovely place, isn't it, Richard? | 0:28:47 | 0:28:49 | |
It's fab and I'm excited to have you. | 0:28:49 | 0:28:50 | |
Well, very pleased we are | 0:28:50 | 0:28:52 | |
to be at Richard Winterton Auctioneers of Lichfield | 0:28:52 | 0:28:55 | |
and for the Reds, they've got a selection. | 0:28:55 | 0:28:58 | |
First up is the oak stationery compendium. | 0:28:58 | 0:29:01 | |
-Quite grand, that, isn't it? -I have seen grander. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:04 | |
-Oh. How much? -£50-£80. | 0:29:04 | 0:29:08 | |
-Not grand enough. -Isn't it? -No, £130. | 0:29:08 | 0:29:11 | |
-HE GASPS -It's a difficult thing to value, | 0:29:11 | 0:29:13 | |
I think, cos I'm not sure who buys these stationery cabinets any more. | 0:29:13 | 0:29:16 | |
There is a market for them but they are looking for the better model | 0:29:16 | 0:29:19 | |
and a bit more going on. That's a bit straight and a bit, you know... | 0:29:19 | 0:29:24 | |
Lovely. Well, you know about these things, lovely. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
Stand by for a bit of a loss on that. Now, what about this trunk? | 0:29:26 | 0:29:29 | |
-That's a fantastic trunk, isn't it? -Ah, fabulous. Yeah, great. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:32 | |
-Great example, I should think it is American. -Probably American, yeah. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:35 | |
I was going to say, I think it's American. Yes, it's lovely, | 0:29:35 | 0:29:38 | |
beautifully built, it's got that look about it. | 0:29:38 | 0:29:41 | |
-It's a lovely thing, Tim, I think it's great. -Yeah, | 0:29:41 | 0:29:44 | |
-anyway, that's super. What's it worth? -We've got 120-130. | 0:29:44 | 0:29:49 | |
-That is a very good estimate, £100 these guys paid for it. -Yeah. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:51 | |
The potential for profit in that and the downside in this | 0:29:51 | 0:29:56 | |
-are equally balanced so they may finish up as squits. -Yeah. | 0:29:56 | 0:30:00 | |
Their last item is the coffee set... | 0:30:00 | 0:30:02 | |
-OK. -..which looks a bit to me slightly old hat. | 0:30:02 | 0:30:07 | |
It's trying to be Carlton, it's not as good as Carlton | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
therefore, what's it going to do? | 0:30:10 | 0:30:13 | |
I like this sort of thing, I think it's got a lovely blue. | 0:30:13 | 0:30:15 | |
I see exactly where you're coming from, | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
the market for this has definitely slowed | 0:30:17 | 0:30:20 | |
-but it's still got a real nice, crisp blue... -Yeah. | 0:30:20 | 0:30:23 | |
-..with all the gilding going on... -Might it make £68? -It could do. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:27 | |
We've got 40-60, it could well get there, couldn't it? | 0:30:27 | 0:30:29 | |
OK, they might wipe its face. OK, fine. Overall, then, | 0:30:29 | 0:30:32 | |
I fancy they're not going to be too much up or too much down - | 0:30:32 | 0:30:35 | |
whether they need the bonus buy or not, I don't know | 0:30:35 | 0:30:37 | |
but let's see it anyway. | 0:30:37 | 0:30:40 | |
Now, girls, this is exciting, isn't it? | 0:30:40 | 0:30:43 | |
You spent £298, you gave your poor expert Thomas £2 only. | 0:30:43 | 0:30:48 | |
Thomas, what did you spend it on? | 0:30:48 | 0:30:50 | |
Well, I love a challenge. | 0:30:50 | 0:30:51 | |
You didn't spend it all, did you? | 0:30:51 | 0:30:53 | |
Anne. | 0:30:55 | 0:30:56 | |
Here we are, girls. So, I bought a pair of... | 0:30:56 | 0:30:59 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:30:59 | 0:31:01 | |
..wait for it, don't laugh. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:03 | |
19th-century, old, Sheffield plate trencher salts... | 0:31:03 | 0:31:08 | |
-Oh. -Fantastic. -..for your table with Bristol blue glass liners. | 0:31:08 | 0:31:14 | |
They are simply wonderful. For your rock salt in here | 0:31:14 | 0:31:19 | |
or your Maldon salt on your dining-room table and | 0:31:19 | 0:31:23 | |
-(for £2.) -I can't believe it. -Thank you. | 0:31:23 | 0:31:26 | |
OK, you Red Hatters, what do you think about them? | 0:31:26 | 0:31:28 | |
-Fantastic. -They're lovely. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:29 | |
OK, girls, so, there's it, then. | 0:31:29 | 0:31:31 | |
You've got it? £1 each for these, unbelievable. | 0:31:31 | 0:31:34 | |
-Ask him how much they're going to bring. -Yeah, | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
how much do you think they'll make? | 0:31:36 | 0:31:37 | |
-Well, they might make £5. They might... -Each? -Yes, each. | 0:31:37 | 0:31:42 | |
-Each. -Yeah, they might make £10 for the pair. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:44 | |
I think with that price, we've really got to think about these. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:48 | |
Do you think they might make £30, Tom? | 0:31:48 | 0:31:49 | |
-If they make £30, I'll be dancing a jig. -Will you? | 0:31:49 | 0:31:52 | |
-Do you promise? -I do. -Yeah, right. Fantastic. | 0:31:52 | 0:31:55 | |
OK. You don't pick now, you pick later. Right now, | 0:31:55 | 0:31:57 | |
let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Tom's trencher salts. | 0:31:57 | 0:32:00 | |
Well, poor old Thomas only had £2 | 0:32:02 | 0:32:03 | |
and he went out and bought these two condiments. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:06 | |
-Oh, I'm so pleased you said that. -What? -To find out... | 0:32:06 | 0:32:09 | |
-He's done well to find them for £2, hasn't he? -Well, hasn't he? | 0:32:09 | 0:32:11 | |
It's got Bristol blue liners in - look, perfect. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:14 | |
Which could easily end up in a far better... | 0:32:14 | 0:32:17 | |
-Boat? -Of course it could, than what there is there | 0:32:17 | 0:32:20 | |
-so those are worth the £2 on their own. -Of course they are. | 0:32:20 | 0:32:23 | |
Perfect, what's your estimate? | 0:32:23 | 0:32:24 | |
-We've gone 10-15. -Have you really? | 0:32:24 | 0:32:26 | |
Well, he's done very well with those. That's super. | 0:32:26 | 0:32:29 | |
-Yeah. -That's those two done | 0:32:29 | 0:32:30 | |
and whether the team go for it or not's another matter. | 0:32:30 | 0:32:33 | |
Now, for the Blues. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:35 | |
We have got for Tex and Ren, the crane. | 0:32:35 | 0:32:39 | |
-RICHARD LAUGHS -It looks to me | 0:32:39 | 0:32:41 | |
a bit like that, what's it called, that German stuff, lava... | 0:32:41 | 0:32:44 | |
-I think you are dead... -lava ware, isn't it? -Yes. -How much? | 0:32:44 | 0:32:48 | |
-10 to 15. -OK, £12 paid. -Yeah. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
I mean, that Brown lava-type, glutinous glaze | 0:32:50 | 0:32:55 | |
is not everybody's cup of tea but there are collectors, right? | 0:32:55 | 0:32:58 | |
-There's not many of them. -OK, fine. | 0:32:58 | 0:33:00 | |
Next is the Boots tin which is for the first aid. | 0:33:00 | 0:33:05 | |
Every business needs a first-aid tin. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:07 | |
-Do you like him? -10 to 15 for me. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:09 | |
Is it? £12 paid. | 0:33:09 | 0:33:10 | |
-That's OK. -There's a theme going here. -We're ahead here. There certainly is. | 0:33:10 | 0:33:14 | |
Now you've got the Hygena kitchen cabinet | 0:33:14 | 0:33:16 | |
which is so evocative of an era. | 0:33:16 | 0:33:19 | |
-Yeah. -There it is, back there. | 0:33:19 | 0:33:21 | |
-And it's fab, it's OK. -Isn't it good? Yeah. | 0:33:21 | 0:33:23 | |
We have a lot come through, it's £30-50 all day long. | 0:33:23 | 0:33:27 | |
People want deconstructed kitchen fittings, don't they? | 0:33:27 | 0:33:31 | |
They don't want the fitted kitchen look any more, | 0:33:31 | 0:33:34 | |
if you're going for that period thing. | 0:33:34 | 0:33:35 | |
You know, that's in at the moment, that sort of thing. | 0:33:35 | 0:33:38 | |
-Well, they paid £115. -HE GASPS | 0:33:38 | 0:33:40 | |
-We've got the internet to help us. -We have, I mean, we'll need it. -OK. | 0:33:40 | 0:33:43 | |
Well, if it lets us down, they can go with the bonus buy. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:46 | |
Let's go and have a look at it. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:48 | |
You spent £139, you gave Christina £161. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:52 | |
Christina, what did you spend it on? | 0:33:52 | 0:33:54 | |
I totally indulged myself, it's very selfish | 0:33:54 | 0:33:56 | |
and I bought you a little bit of jewellery, I'm sorry to say. | 0:33:56 | 0:34:01 | |
Here we go. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:03 | |
In this lovely little box, we've got | 0:34:03 | 0:34:05 | |
an Art-Deco jade and sea-pearl nine carat white gold necklace, OK? | 0:34:05 | 0:34:10 | |
What do you think? | 0:34:10 | 0:34:11 | |
On first impressions, that's quite nice. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:14 | |
-Oh, there we go. -SHE LAUGHS | 0:34:14 | 0:34:16 | |
I thought that you might appreciate it, it's typically Art Deco. | 0:34:16 | 0:34:19 | |
If you think of the Art Deco period, you've got that wonderful love | 0:34:19 | 0:34:22 | |
of contrasting colours. They used a lot of coral and black | 0:34:22 | 0:34:24 | |
and green and white and green and black so it's typical of the period | 0:34:24 | 0:34:28 | |
but still very wearable today | 0:34:28 | 0:34:30 | |
and very much a style that is very fashionable today. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
-Do you want to have a little look at it? -How much? | 0:34:33 | 0:34:36 | |
-How much did we pay for it? -Oh, straight to it. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:37 | |
-Oh, straight to the money. -Blimey, there we go, straight to the point. | 0:34:37 | 0:34:40 | |
I was hoping to sell it a bit more to you first. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:43 | |
Well, you left me with £161. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:46 | |
I have change of a pound... | 0:34:46 | 0:34:49 | |
-Ah. -..so I spent £160 on it. | 0:34:49 | 0:34:53 | |
-She's got to get into our ethics of spending low. -Yeah. -Yeah, | 0:34:53 | 0:34:56 | |
but very, very popular | 0:34:56 | 0:34:57 | |
and especially with the Chinese market being very buoyant, | 0:34:57 | 0:35:00 | |
they do love jade and it's beautifully carved as well | 0:35:00 | 0:35:02 | |
-so very wearable. -What sort of profit do you see in this? | 0:35:02 | 0:35:05 | |
Well, I would hope as a nice piece of jewellery, | 0:35:05 | 0:35:07 | |
I see it making at auction between £150-200. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:11 | |
Good, and you spent 160 so there's the maths. | 0:35:11 | 0:35:13 | |
Thank you very much, chaps. Thank you, Christina. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:15 | |
For the viewers at home, | 0:35:15 | 0:35:17 | |
let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the necklace. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:20 | |
Well, there you go. Christina had a tonne of money | 0:35:20 | 0:35:23 | |
-and she fell in love with the jade pendant. -Ooh, OK. | 0:35:23 | 0:35:27 | |
-Does it pluck your heartstrings? -Not a lot, I have to say. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:30 | |
If you were taking a punt and you were being really strong, | 0:35:30 | 0:35:32 | |
-what would you put on it? -£50-£80. | 0:35:32 | 0:35:35 | |
Well, Christina paid £160 so... | 0:35:35 | 0:35:37 | |
She's gambling on the jade being red-hot at the moment | 0:35:37 | 0:35:41 | |
in the market and in our auction world so... | 0:35:41 | 0:35:43 | |
We'll find out in a minute. Thanks, Rich. | 0:35:43 | 0:35:46 | |
Well, Richard's ready, | 0:35:46 | 0:35:48 | |
the room's packed | 0:35:48 | 0:35:50 | |
and the teams are poised. | 0:35:50 | 0:35:51 | |

-We'll make it up on the others. -We're going to have to. -Never mind. | 0:36:20 | 0:36:23 | |

Sold at 140... | 0:36:39 | 0:36:42 | |
Goes for 140. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:43 | |
-Which is plus £40. -Minus ten, then. | 0:36:43 | 0:36:45 | |
You are minus ten, you are so genius. | 0:36:45 | 0:36:49 | |
Lot 4951 we go to now, the coffee set. | 0:36:49 | 0:36:50 | |

Internet bid, £50. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:15 | |
-ANNE: -£500. -No... -£50 is minus £18... | 0:37:15 | 0:37:17 | |
..oh, God. ..which means overall, you're on minus 28. | 0:37:17 | 0:37:20 | |
-This is quite taut, actually. -It's tight. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:23 | |
Tight, so what are we going to do about the salts - | 0:37:23 | 0:37:25 | |
-go with the salts? -Ooh, at that money, perhaps we will. -OK, yeah. | 0:37:25 | 0:37:28 | |
OK, the decision is made - we're going with the salts | 0:37:28 | 0:37:31 | |
and here they come. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:32 | |

£15, the internet... | 0:37:48 | 0:37:50 | |
Sold then at £15... | 0:37:50 | 0:37:53 | |
That is phenomenal, isn't it? | 0:37:53 | 0:37:55 | |
Plus £13, you are clever. | 0:37:55 | 0:37:57 | |
That means overall, you're only minus 15. | 0:37:57 | 0:38:00 | |
-You have clawed it back, girls. -Thank you. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:03 | |
Well done - and that could be a winning score. | 0:38:03 | 0:38:05 | |
Tex, Ren, how are you feeling? | 0:38:10 | 0:38:13 | |
I'm not sure if it's the caffeine but I'm getting a bit nervous. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:16 | |
First up is the German crane. Now, here it comes. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:20 | |
Starting on my book, £2... | 0:38:20 | 0:38:22 | |

You're out, madam. £20, nope? | 0:38:33 | 0:38:35 | |
I have to say, I'm slightly in shock. | 0:38:35 | 0:38:36 | |
Shaking her head, £20 on the front row, sold then at 20... | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
-Well done, well done. -Fantastic. | 0:38:39 | 0:38:41 | |

Well done. | 0:38:47 | 0:38:48 | |

All finished, £80... | 0:39:45 | 0:39:47 | |
-So close. -£80 is minus 35 | 0:39:47 | 0:39:51 | |
and so, that makes you minus 24. | 0:39:51 | 0:39:54 | |
Oh, it was going so well. | 0:39:54 | 0:39:56 | |
Nothing like as bad as it could have been, lads. | 0:39:56 | 0:39:59 | |
-Are we going to do the jade pendant or not? -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:39:59 | 0:40:01 | |
-We'll go with it. -Seriously? You're going to go with this bonus buy? | 0:40:01 | 0:40:04 | |
-Yes. -Yeah. -OK. -Oh, guys, OK. So what did the auctioneer say? | 0:40:04 | 0:40:08 | |
The decision is made, the die is cast - now you've said that, | 0:40:08 | 0:40:10 | |
I can tell you the auctioneer's estimated it at 50-80, right... | 0:40:10 | 0:40:13 | |
-Boo. -Oh. | 0:40:13 | 0:40:14 | |
-That seems very mean. -..which I think is very mean. -Here we go. | 0:40:14 | 0:40:17 | |
Here it comes. | 0:40:17 | 0:40:18 | |
Lot 1517 we go to now, | 0:40:18 | 0:40:19 | |
we'll start at 50... | 0:40:19 | 0:40:21 | |
£50 I'm bid, £50 I'm bid... | 0:40:21 | 0:40:24 | |
-60, 70... -REN: -Yes, yes. | 0:40:24 | 0:40:26 | |
£70, at £70, internet, you're all out... | 0:40:26 | 0:40:28 | |
At £70, at £70, I'm bid at £70... | 0:40:28 | 0:40:30 | |
At £70, we have £80, the internet... | 0:40:30 | 0:40:33 | |
At £80, the internet, at £80, the internet... | 0:40:33 | 0:40:36 | |
At £80... | 0:40:36 | 0:40:37 | |
-£80, the internet, room's out... -Oh, guys. | 0:40:37 | 0:40:39 | |
Sold then at £80... | 0:40:39 | 0:40:41 | |
Oh, no. | 0:40:41 | 0:40:43 | |
-I'm so sorry. -£80 is minus £80... | 0:40:43 | 0:40:45 | |
Oh, I'm so sorry...it's minus 104. | 0:40:45 | 0:40:48 | |
Oh, guys, hey - we broke the £100 barrier! | 0:40:48 | 0:40:50 | |
Well, the trouble is it just shows how chancy | 0:40:50 | 0:40:53 | |
some of this stuff is, isn't it? | 0:40:53 | 0:40:55 | |
One day the thing's going to make £200, | 0:40:55 | 0:40:57 | |
the next day it's going to make £100. | 0:40:57 | 0:40:59 | |
I'm really sorry, guys. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:00 | |
-That's OK. -But, you know, there you go. All right? -We've had fun. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:03 | |
-Nothing ventured, nothing gained. -Exactly. -And who knows - | 0:41:03 | 0:41:06 | |
£104 minus might be a winning score. | 0:41:06 | 0:41:09 | |
-We've seen worse win before so, yes. -Exactly. -Yeah. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:13 | |
Well, well, well, what's going on here? Have you changed allegiances? | 0:41:20 | 0:41:24 | |
-You two guys? -Just partaking in the fun. -We was robbed. | 0:41:24 | 0:41:27 | |
-THE BLUES LAUGH -Did they nick them? -Yes. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:29 | |
Very sweet, chaps. Anyway, there it is. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:32 | |
There is a chasm between our teams today | 0:41:32 | 0:41:35 | |
and I'm afraid, on the other side of the divide | 0:41:35 | 0:41:39 | |
-are, today, the Blues. -Oh. | 0:41:39 | 0:41:42 | |
Anyway, there you go, chaps - minus £104 | 0:41:42 | 0:41:45 | |
but we've had the most brilliant dynamic | 0:41:45 | 0:41:48 | |
because before we got to the bonus buy moment | 0:41:48 | 0:41:52 | |
on the leaderboard, the Blues were ahead. | 0:41:52 | 0:41:56 | |
-Oh, no. -Yes, and if they hadn't gone with the bonus buy, | 0:41:56 | 0:42:02 | |
-they might be winners today. -I'm really sorry. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:06 | |
Don't feel too badly about it because the winning team | 0:42:06 | 0:42:10 | |
managed to select the bonus buy that did make a profit, | 0:42:10 | 0:42:14 | |
and had you not gone with the bonus buy, Tom's profit | 0:42:14 | 0:42:17 | |
-would have put the Reds in the lead anyway. -Oh. | 0:42:17 | 0:42:21 | |
Is that not a complicated double whammy? | 0:42:21 | 0:42:24 | |
Has this scorpion not got a sting in its tail? | 0:42:24 | 0:42:27 | |
Anyway, you lost today, Blues, by a substantial £104 | 0:42:27 | 0:42:31 | |
-but did you have a nice time? -Fantastic. -Really great. | 0:42:31 | 0:42:33 | |
Well, thank you very much for joining us. It's been great. | 0:42:33 | 0:42:36 | |
The victors today are the girls, who've only managed to fail to make | 0:42:36 | 0:42:40 | |
£15 which is... Minus 15 is your overall total score | 0:42:40 | 0:42:43 | |
-and you had a nice time? -Fantastic. -Wonderful, thank you. | 0:42:43 | 0:42:45 | |
Yeah, we've loved having you. Anyway, congratulations | 0:42:45 | 0:42:48 | |
-on your victory... -Thank you very much indeed. | 0:42:48 | 0:42:50 | |
..and join us soon for some more bargain-hunting, yes? | 0:42:50 | 0:42:52 | |
-ALL: -Yes! | 0:42:52 | 0:42:53 |
