0:00:05 > 0:00:07ENGINE ZOOMS
0:00:07 > 0:00:08Brackley, in Northamptonshire,
0:00:08 > 0:00:11an area steeped in motor racing history.
0:00:13 > 0:00:17Home of the famous Mercedes AMG PETRONAS team
0:00:17 > 0:00:19and Silverstone motor racing track.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23It's a place where legends are born,
0:00:23 > 0:00:26and today it's my turn to get behind the wheel.
0:00:36 > 0:00:37Oh, dear.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42- ENGINE STARTS - What a shambles.
0:00:42 > 0:00:46Let's go bargain hunting! Yeah.
0:01:09 > 0:01:14Over the years, Silverstone has seen its fair share of high-speed
0:01:14 > 0:01:19wheeling and dealing, and even the odd bit of chicanery.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Is this sounding familiar?
0:01:21 > 0:01:25So, while I find myself a pole position,
0:01:25 > 0:01:28let's take a quick squint of what's coming up
0:01:28 > 0:01:29a bit further down the track.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34The Reds are feline all funny about animals.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36- A little cat, little tail on it. - Little cat.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39You're a wee sop, dear.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41On the Blue team someone gets henpecked.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43- We'll think about it.- Let me have it. - No, we'll think about it.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47I think there's a bit of an argument brewing here.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51But who will be feathering their nest when it comes to the auction?
0:01:51 > 0:01:52- ALL:- Yes!
0:01:52 > 0:01:53100. 100 it is.
0:01:53 > 0:01:54THEY CHEER
0:01:56 > 0:01:57Selling.
0:01:57 > 0:02:02So, today on Bargain Hunt, we have Amy and Jamie, and Gary and Paula.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04- Hello, everyone.- ALL:- Hello.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- Great to see you. Now, Amy, you're in banking.- Mm-hm.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08And you also have an artistic flair.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11Yeah, absolutely. I love to paint and draw,
0:02:11 > 0:02:13and at the moment, to be honest with you,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16I'm doing a lot of portrait commissions of pets.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19And you're a follower of fashion?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21Yeah, well, I specifically like '40s and '50s sort of style,
0:02:21 > 0:02:26so that's what I sort of tend to wear in my time when I'm not at work.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28And your hairstyle emulates that.
0:02:28 > 0:02:29Yeah, I suppose so today actually, yeah.
0:02:29 > 0:02:33- Yeah, no, can see you. And very, very nice it is too.- Thank you.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Never working with animals doesn't apply with you though, does it?- No.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39I mean, I'm always surrounded by animals most of the day
0:02:39 > 0:02:43cos I have a couple of dogs, three cats and two snakes as well.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- Have you?- Yeah.- What sort of snakes?
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Errol's a corn snake. HE LAUGHS
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Errol. He would be called Errol, wouldn't he, if he's a corn snake?
0:02:49 > 0:02:53Exactly. And we've got a python called Monty. Monty Python.
0:02:53 > 0:02:54I don't believe this.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57- SHE LAUGHS - You know, how big's your python?
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Python is only a baby.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00He's probably only about, I don't even know,
0:03:00 > 0:03:01maybe for 4ft or something.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04A few weeks ago, we found that he'd laid eggs, so he's now a girl.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- Oh, nice.- We're going to keep the name though
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- cos I can't really change it. - What is the female version of Monty?
0:03:10 > 0:03:12- Well, that was it, yeah.- It's a bit of a difficult one that, isn't it?
0:03:12 > 0:03:13Exactly.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17So, are you going to be buying things related to animals today?
0:03:17 > 0:03:20I think that's probably the route we'll go down.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I don't know what it is about animals and teddy bears and that sort
0:03:22 > 0:03:26of thing but that seems to be what I tend to go for, so we'll have to see.
0:03:26 > 0:03:30Jolly good. Now, Jamie, you go for Nottingham Forest Football Club
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- I'm told.- Yes, yeah. I'm an avid supporter. Red shoes, red top.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I was very pleased to be on the Red team.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38I go home and away with my dad.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41We go to silly places like Portugal and Germany to watch them
0:03:41 > 0:03:44on pre-seasons as well and I haven't missed a match, home or away,
0:03:44 > 0:03:48- for four years.- Have you not? - No, it's a passion.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50- Would you say you're obsessive at all or...?- Yeah.
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- Definitely.- Oh, good. As far as football's concerned. Lovely.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Now, what sort of things do you collect?
0:03:56 > 0:04:00We've got a couple of things I've inherited from my late grandfather.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03There was a 19th-century grandmother clock sat in his house,
0:04:03 > 0:04:05so I inherited that.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08And have you picked up any tips from Bargain Hunt over the years?
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Um, yeah. Well, we've turned everything around,
0:04:11 > 0:04:13made sure everything's got a mark on it,
0:04:13 > 0:04:16made sure everything's real to a certain extent.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Making sure we know it's authentic and...pretty much are...
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- We're happy with everything we've got, aren't we?- Yeah.
0:04:22 > 0:04:23OK. Well, I hope you're going to be happy
0:04:23 > 0:04:25with everything that you buy today.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- May all your dreams come true. - Thank you.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Now, Gary, you are a great fan of Bargain Hunt.- That's right.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Do you ever miss a show?
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Uh, only when Paula phones me when I'm at home...
0:04:35 > 0:04:36watching it. THEY LAUGH
0:04:36 > 0:04:39What's the reaction, Paula, if you do ring him up?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41"What do you want?! I'm watching Bargain Hunt."
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Ah, that's the right attitude.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46You're also a bit of a PETRO head in your spare time, aren't you, Gary?
0:04:46 > 0:04:50That's right, Tim, yeah. I'm a proud owner of a 2008 Harley Davidson
0:04:50 > 0:04:52- Heritage Softail.- Ah.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56I'm an active member of the local Meon Valley chapter
0:04:56 > 0:05:00and we've done some European tours and quite a lot of charity rides
0:05:00 > 0:05:01- as well.- Brilliant.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Do you go on sort of big trips on it or is it all local stuff?
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- Been to Barcelona, been to... - St Tropez.- St Tropez.
0:05:08 > 0:05:12We did a challenge which was...they call it the Iron Hog Challenge
0:05:12 > 0:05:14where... Did it for charity.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18..we had to visit all 28 dealers in the UK in 72 hours.
0:05:18 > 0:05:22- Gosh.- Which was about 2,300 miles.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23- 72 hours?- Yeah.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25We did it with half an hour to spare.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28- THEY LAUGH - Well, that's your challenge.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Almost as difficult as your challenge
0:05:30 > 0:05:32- on Bargain Hunt today maybe. - Oh, yes.- Maybe.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Now, Paula, you're more into horse power of a different type,
0:05:35 > 0:05:41- aren't you?- Well, I've got a lovely chestnut, Welsh, section D, 16 hands
0:05:41 > 0:05:44who's my...well, he's my pet, really.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45I do a little bit of everything on him, really.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- Have you loved horses all your life? - I have.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52When I was a child, I actually turned a shed into a stable and made
0:05:52 > 0:05:55the lawn into a little paddock waiting for my pony to turn up.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59And how many years did it take for it to arrive?
0:05:59 > 0:06:02- Oh, about 25 years. - Well, there you go, you see.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06- So you were 25 years in the hoping that this pony would come?- Aye.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- Do you go riding on the motor bicycle too?- I do. I do.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- Got your own leathers?- I have. - Ooh!- Ooh, yeah!
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Do you collect anything between you?
0:06:16 > 0:06:17I collect thimbles,
0:06:17 > 0:06:19which was something I inherited from my late mother.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21- Nice habit, though, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- Because you haven't got a storage problem.- No, no.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25So, how many thimbles have you got?
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Probably about 200.- Yeah.- Have you? Well, there you go.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30OK, fine. Now, the money moment.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32£300 apiece. You get £300, there you go.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34- There's your £300. - Thank you.- You know the rules.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37Your experts await. And off you go!
0:06:37 > 0:06:39And very, very, very good luck.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42So, it could be either a thimbleful or a snake's fest.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49The Reds' expert is just their type.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50Ha! It's Anita Manning.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52This little piggy
0:06:52 > 0:06:53is going to market,
0:06:53 > 0:06:54and so is Catherine Southon
0:06:54 > 0:06:56with the Blue team.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02Guys, are we going to have fun today? Marvellous.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05What sort of things are you interested in?
0:07:05 > 0:07:07I think definitely things to do with animals.
0:07:07 > 0:07:11- Paula and Gary, this is all very exciting, isn't it?- It certainly is.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13How are you feeling? I can feel the excitement.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Excited, waiting for the bargain.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16Who is good at bargaining?
0:07:16 > 0:07:21- Jamie would be the one.- Yeah, yeah. I have got a bit of a haggle in me.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- I'll be a bit cheeky to anyone. - Is he a bit cheeky?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28We will be the charm offensive.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30- I want that gavel.- You are determined about that gavel,
0:07:30 > 0:07:32- aren't you?- Yes, that's the one.
0:07:32 > 0:07:34And if you don't get it, you're going to be cross, aren't you?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36I've got to live with him.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37Let's start the clock.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Let's go, then, guys. Let's look for some animals.- Yeah!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42- Pressure is on, we better go.- Right.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Oooh!
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- That's lovely.- It's so adorable! - Isn't that a cutesy?- I like that.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54- What kind of dog is that? - It's a French dog, apparently.- Oh!
0:07:54 > 0:07:58- A French dog?- Oh-la-la!- It's a Continental dog.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01- Do you like that? - I know it has been loved, clearly,
0:08:01 > 0:08:05but I'm just not sure who would be there to buy, like, a toy dog.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06I don't know.
0:08:06 > 0:08:10- Maybe we'll go for something more ceramic or glass.- Like a pot dog?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12- Like a pot dog, yeah.- Oh, well.
0:08:12 > 0:08:17- He's very cute.- Do you like him? I think he may be a teapot.- Oh!
0:08:17 > 0:08:21- Oh, his head comes off.- Yeah, I think he probably is a teapot, then.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22He's a headless dog.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26- Do you like him? - He is cute. One to think about.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28I'm just not absolutely in love with him yet.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32- If you are not in love with him, let's carry on.- Are you? No?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34No, I agree.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36- Well keep looking, then.- OK. Fab.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41Yep, carry on and try not to lose your heads.
0:08:42 > 0:08:46Meanwhile, the Blues are also feeling a certain animal attraction.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Let's have a look at the rocking horse.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51It is 245 quid, so we can't afford that.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54What do you think to this?
0:08:54 > 0:08:56I think there's a theme emerging here.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00- A little cat with a little tail on it.- A little cat.- A wee sort.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03But I love his little eyes, cos they are not quite on right.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07- It looks like he has just woken up. - He is cheap as well, isn't he?
0:09:07 > 0:09:10I think, if we could get him down to ten pound,
0:09:10 > 0:09:13- or 12, what you think? - I like it.- Do you like him?
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- He reminds us of one of our cats, doesn't it?- Yeah!
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Well, I think the cat is adorable.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22Our dealer is telling us it is a vintage French cat.
0:09:22 > 0:09:27I would say that it's probably from the 1940s or 1950s.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29It is well-worn.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32It has probably been in the washing machine several times.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37It has this plush body, which is no longer...plush.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40But there is something lovely about that as well.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- Should we go and find the dealer? - Yeah. Shall we go?- Definitely.
0:09:43 > 0:09:44OK, let's go.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52I've spoken to the dealer, and they are happy to let you
0:09:52 > 0:09:56have it for £12, which I think is a purr-fect price.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00- That sounds great to me.- That sounds about right.- Thank you very much.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02- I think that is a bargain. - Absolutely.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- That is something we'll go for. - That's one in the pot.- Yes.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08- Yeah, one there already. - Two more to go.- Two more to go.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Well, the Reds think that's the cat's whiskers,
0:10:11 > 0:10:14and it looks the Blues are also reverting to childhood.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15That is more of like a teether,
0:10:15 > 0:10:18- for a child to sort of bite on. - 1932, silver.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20- How much it?- It is £35.- Oh.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23If you could get that for, I don't know, £25 or something.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25I think it could be worth a look at.
0:10:25 > 0:10:30- How are you, Jim? Hi. My lovely team are interested in the rattle.- OK.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Has got a mark on it?- Big dent in it.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- Oh.- That's a shame. - I must admit, it is a pretty one.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37What would he get it auction?
0:10:37 > 0:10:38I think, if it was perfect,
0:10:38 > 0:10:41it would probably be estimated at 30 to 50.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- But as is... I don't know.- It's going to be a present, isn't it?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Who wants a present that's not perfect?
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Jim, what do think is the best deal we could get on that?
0:10:50 > 0:10:54- What is the price on there? - 35, I think.- 35.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56- I'll make a phone call. - Thank you, Jim.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Had it not had the dent, I would've said that was a good buy.
0:10:58 > 0:10:59Well, we'll see.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01Yes, I phoned the dealer.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05- I pointed out there is a bit of damage to it.- Yeah.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06£20 is the best he could do.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09It's your decision. I feel very tense at the moment.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11- We'll think about it.- I want it. - There is tension here.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13- We'll think about it.- I want it.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- Oh, he does my head in.- So, what should we do? Do you want it?- No.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20- I do.- She is very definite, isn't she? How can I please you two?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- We'll think about it. - Let me have it.- No.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24We'll think about it. If we don't see anything else,
0:11:24 > 0:11:25we'll come back for it.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Cor, she's a feisty one, this Paula.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31Never mind, Gary, just keep calm and carry on, mate.
0:11:34 > 0:11:35The dealer has phoned back.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38He will do a little bit better on that price. £18.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40- Oh.- Oh, right, OK.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44And that will make a difference. Has two pounds swung you?
0:11:44 > 0:11:47No, but I am still thinking about it.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50I think £18, if you don't make a profit on that,
0:11:50 > 0:11:52- it's a bit... - Let's go for it, then.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Let's go for it.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57So, the extra two pounds off has swung it for the Blues.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01Meanwhile, it is business as usual with the Reds.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- Another pot dog.- Another pot dog! - That is beautiful. I really like him.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09- He's lovely.- It is nice.- What kind of dog is that?- Boxer, I think.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11- I think it is a boxer dog. - It does actually say on it.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17- What is USSR?- Russian. SHE LAUGHS
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- It is from the Soviet Republic. - Oh, OK!
0:12:19 > 0:12:22I don't want to touch it cos I'd drop it. You pick it up.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25There was a series of animals made in the USSR
0:12:25 > 0:12:28and they were exported to this country.
0:12:28 > 0:12:33You get them various different sizes. All different breeds of dogs.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35And all different kinds of animals.
0:12:35 > 0:12:39- The ticket price is 25. - 25, that is a retail price.- Right.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42I think you would need to get it down again.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44We've got one in the bag.
0:12:44 > 0:12:48Let's not rush into the next one, because this antique centre
0:12:48 > 0:12:51is huge and there are hundreds of thousands of objects.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56- But that is definitely something to keep in mind.- Yeah, definitely.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00Over to the Blues for more four-legged fun and frolics.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03So, I've got in my mind to find you something horse-related,
0:13:03 > 0:13:08- something equestrian. You have horses, do you?- Yeah.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11There were some little glasses with horse heads on them down there.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13- Did you see them? - No, show me those.
0:13:13 > 0:13:16What does it say? "Grand National drinking set."
0:13:16 > 0:13:20So, all the names of famous horses from the Grand National.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- I mean, they're...they're OK.- Hm.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27- Shall we carry on? - Yep, we'll carry on.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Back with the Reds, and they have found something that may be good
0:13:30 > 0:13:32as an outside bet.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Is it old or is it just reproduction, what do you think?
0:13:36 > 0:13:40I think that it is a replica of an older one.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43So it's what we call a decorative item.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46It is probably really just for show.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49- But I can see a little break. - Yeah.- There is a crack there.
0:13:49 > 0:13:51A bit of damage, actually, isn't there?
0:13:51 > 0:13:54I think that if you're going to buy that,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57you would have to get it really cheaply.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- Yeah.- OK. We may see another one. - Yeah, we might.- Let's go.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08Back with the Blues, and Gary is thinking it is time for tea.
0:14:08 > 0:14:13- 1950s.- So we've got hot water, teapot, milk and sugar.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Is it all perfect? No, look.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18You see, you're not looking closely. Get those glasses on.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Get your specs on.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Oh, yeah. Move on.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Move on. Move on.- There is damage.
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I'm not letting you have that.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Gary, I feel for you.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Just keep smiling, mate.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35Now, do my eyes deceive me or are the Reds actually
0:14:35 > 0:14:38looking at something that is not animal related?
0:14:38 > 0:14:42- This is a muffin dish.- Right. - And it was to keep the muffins warm.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44- Oh, you've got a little dog on it. - Does it?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Oh, my eyes DO deceive me, then.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48I thought you were free flying
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- there.- There's a reason behind everything.
0:14:51 > 0:14:55- Is it a dog? I'm not even sure. Is it a goat?- It looks like a goat.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- It is a dog!- Yeah, I could well be.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02- It is not the most desirable of items.- No?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04But I can see why you are attracted to it,
0:15:04 > 0:15:07because you thought you quite liked silvery things.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09That's it, I quite like silver.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12- Anything that shines. - Anything that shines.- Right.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16- OK, something sparkly.- Yeah.- Just like yourself.- Yeah! There you go.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Exactly.- Well, think there are some sparkling things up here.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Over to the Blues, and they are hot to trot.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29This little foal.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31Some Beswick figures can be rarer than others
0:15:31 > 0:15:34- and some can be more collectible. - Yeah.
0:15:34 > 0:15:37I think that £22 is pretty much all its...
0:15:37 > 0:15:40- Worth for that, OK.- Yeah.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44- We have got half an hour. We started off so well.- Right, OK then.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47With half an hour gone and one item in the bag,
0:15:47 > 0:15:51Paula has a question - To-by or not To-by?
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- Toby Jug.- Oh, right. Horrible, grotesque looking thing.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58He's scary.
0:15:58 > 0:15:59He looks like Mr Punch.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- Hm.- Punch and Judy.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Although Toby Jugs themselves aren't that desirable at the moment,
0:16:05 > 0:16:07- I think a Punch one is a better one to have.- Yeah?
0:16:07 > 0:16:10You are playing this to get a gavel, aren't you?
0:16:10 > 0:16:12You are not playing to make a big profit.
0:16:12 > 0:16:13No, he is making it to get a gavel.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Why is it so important to you to get this gavel?
0:16:16 > 0:16:21- Because I collect pins.- Ah!
0:16:21 > 0:16:22On his motorbike...thing,
0:16:22 > 0:16:26- and he wants the gavel to go on it, you see?- OK.
0:16:26 > 0:16:31- Hello, Jim.- Hi, Jim. We are interested in Mr Punch.- Yes.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33He is got a ticket price of 34.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36- The dealer would do a deal on this at ten pounds.- Ten pound?
0:16:36 > 0:16:39- Yeah.- What do you think, Paula? - Should we think about it
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- and have a quick look to see what is going on?- Time is ticking.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- Listen, time is ticking, we need to have a look.- Make a decision.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45No pressure then, Gary.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- I'm loving it.- Your loving it? Right, OK, on your head be it.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Oh!
0:16:50 > 0:16:52- Ten pound.- OK.- She has spoken.
0:16:52 > 0:16:54- Thanks, Jim, lovely. - Thank you very much.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Thanks very much. OK, so two items.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58- We've got about 20 minutes left. - Right.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02Now, you've had your way twice now, my turn. Take that. We are off.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10I quite like this, Jamie.
0:17:10 > 0:17:11It says it is a cheese dish,
0:17:11 > 0:17:13but people could use that to cover cakes?
0:17:13 > 0:17:15I think it is worth getting Anita to have a look at this,
0:17:15 > 0:17:17- see what she reckons.- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19- Have you found something? - BOTH: We think so.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22We thought we'd seek an expert opinion.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24It says it is a cheese dish.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27It could be useful now for cakes, things like that.
0:17:27 > 0:17:31- So it is multi-purpose.- Right, it is a functional thing.- Yeah.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- And functional things will always appeal to buyers.- Yeah.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38It has a rural scene in it, with the farmer ploughing.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42You've got a couple horses there, so we are still in an animal theme.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- Spot a dog.- We have got a dog there.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47The dealer is saying it is possibly Ridgway's,
0:17:47 > 0:17:49he is not saying that it certainly is.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52I wasn't sure... I mean, the price is 145.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56I'd be wanting to get that down substantially to give you a chance.
0:17:56 > 0:17:57Right, OK.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00We don't have a maker's name on it.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02If it had a mark on it, it would be a no-brainer, I think.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05If it had been a lot cheaper, again, but it is just...
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Even if we can get it below 100, I don't know whether or not,
0:18:08 > 0:18:11if it is unmarked in an antique auction, someone would go for it.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15I would like to see it going, you getting it round about £80.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18What I would suggest is - you go and
0:18:18 > 0:18:22- see if you can locate the dealer and we continue looking.- Yeah.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26- Cos we've got to nail that second one.- Yeah, absolutely.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Hi.- Hello.- We have seen this.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32We are really liking it,
0:18:32 > 0:18:35but we feel that the price might be a little bit too high.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37It says 145 on the ticket.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41We would accept...happily accept something like £50, which I know is,
0:18:41 > 0:18:42like, a third of the price.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44We can ask.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47- We can ask.- They can always say no. - Exactly. Thank you.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Yeah, let's leave the Reds on a knife edge,
0:18:49 > 0:18:51waiting for a price on the cheese cloche because, meanwhile,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54I have been doing a bit of shopping of my own.
0:18:59 > 0:19:04Well, recycling and up-cycling, they say, is all the rage at the moment.
0:19:04 > 0:19:09What I like about this person's stand is that they have done
0:19:09 > 0:19:10exactly that.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12But with an unusual twist.
0:19:12 > 0:19:18Now, you could easily walk past this pair of plaques here,
0:19:18 > 0:19:19back in the back corner.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24And what the dealer has done is to take a simple plank of rough,
0:19:24 > 0:19:28old timber and paint it blue, with a bit of design,
0:19:28 > 0:19:32and then has applied to that a piece of cutlery.
0:19:32 > 0:19:37Silver-plated cutlery is so cheap to buy at auction,
0:19:37 > 0:19:39particularly if it doesn't match.
0:19:39 > 0:19:44But what has happened here is, this serving ladle has been
0:19:44 > 0:19:50bent through 90 degrees so that the bowl part of the spoon becomes
0:19:50 > 0:19:54a platform, and that platform is designed to take a candle.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57So, if you've got a romantic occasion coming up
0:19:57 > 0:20:01and you want to make your eating area rather special,
0:20:01 > 0:20:05this is a really economical way of going about it.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08If you come here to buy one of these ready done,
0:20:08 > 0:20:10it'll cost you £20.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14And you can have it in blue or pink.
0:20:14 > 0:20:18Now, once upon a time, this was a press for a badminton racket.
0:20:18 > 0:20:19But no more.
0:20:19 > 0:20:24It has now become a display unit for your cutlery necklaces.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27Ever seen a cutlery necklace? Me neither.
0:20:27 > 0:20:33What we have got here is the plated handle from a spoon or fork set
0:20:33 > 0:20:37that has had some silver chain attached plus a little charm
0:20:37 > 0:20:39to turn it into a necklace.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42Now, how CHARMING is that?
0:20:42 > 0:20:46Each one would cost you £19.50.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47But moving on,
0:20:47 > 0:20:53what we have here is a bog standard quartet of Staffordshire
0:20:53 > 0:20:58blue and white, transfer printed teacups, saucers and side plates.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59And you would go
0:20:59 > 0:21:03and buy a huge box full of this stuff at auction
0:21:03 > 0:21:04for very little money.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06The cunning dealer,
0:21:06 > 0:21:12though, has decided to give this four piece set a new lease of life.
0:21:12 > 0:21:17Look inside, and each of the teacups has been filled with some beeswax.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21So if you are having a late afternoon tea party that you
0:21:21 > 0:21:26wanted to jolly up, you could get that extra illumination.
0:21:26 > 0:21:27Fun, isn't it?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30And they are scented.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32Hm. And what would the lot cost you?
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Four cups, four saucers, four side plates and the candles -
0:21:35 > 0:21:40it would be £40. So there is nothing stinky about that, is there?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51- Back with the shopping and Paula is still on Gary's case.- Ten minutes.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55- We haven't got long, so we're going to have to get a move on now.- OK.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58And the Reds are still waiting for an answer on that cheese dish.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01Right, well, I'm afraid it's not the news you wanted to hear.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05- I thought as much, yeah.- The best they could do is 100, I'm afraid.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08Yeah, I think based on... I don't think we'll go for it.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11But thank you so much for calling them anyway and asking them
0:22:11 > 0:22:12and giving it a shot.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14- Yeah.- Thank you.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16A wise decision, I think, Reds.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19But with two items still to buy, you'd better get a wiggle on.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24Back with the Blues and Paula has had a flash of inspiration.
0:22:24 > 0:22:30- What about this?- What?- This little vesta case. It is 1887. There.
0:22:30 > 0:22:34- 48 quid.- Shall we delve in? - Gary, over here, please.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36I don't want to touch it.
0:22:36 > 0:22:39- Nice shape, isn't it? You put all your matches in there.- Mm-hm.
0:22:39 > 0:22:40And they are collectible, aren't they?
0:22:40 > 0:22:44And you strike it on the bottom. How much is on that? 48.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- Do want to see what you can get that for?- Mm-hm.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Anything in there?
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Can we find out what we can do on that one?
0:22:52 > 0:22:53Look lively, Jim.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55You don't want to get on the wrong side of this one.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59Meanwhile, the Reds are up against it with two items still to buy.
0:22:59 > 0:23:03Now, try not to get obsessed with any more animals, Reds.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- Looks like Obie as well.- It does. - What is your dog called?- Obie.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08It looks exactly like him!
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- You know what you have got to buy here.- Yeah, exactly.- Definitely.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13I mean, it says 45 at the minute.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16- If we can get it for a good price, I think...- Definitely.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17Yeah, absolutely.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Yeah, you take your time, Reds.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23It's not as if you are up against the clock or anything(!)
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Back with the Blues, and they've got a price on that vesta case.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30I phoned the dealer and the best he will do on this is 34.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- It's your call.- Do you want that, then?- Yeah, let's go for it.- Yeah?
0:23:33 > 0:23:37- Yeah.- She is so decisive. - She is more decisive than you.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- So are we happy with that? - Yeah.- Shall I shake hands?
0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Definitely, yeah.- Well done.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Fantastic. We have bought three items.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45And we have got time to spare.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48The same can't be said for the Reds.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50They have two items still to find.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52- OK, guys, we've had a look.- Hm-mm.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56We've got nine minutes left.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59We've only spent £12.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02So what we've got to do just now is to make a decision.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06We can't start wandering around and looking for other things.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- Yeah. - We have got to make a decision.
0:24:08 > 0:24:13I have got a price on the collie, and the dealer can do that one for 25.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15- What do you think?- Yeah, definitely.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17- We'll go for the 25. - We'll go for that one.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19We'll go for that, that's absolutely fabulous.
0:24:19 > 0:24:23- Thank you so much. Well... - There is another one at least.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25- You've got a little Obie. - Yeah.- I think...
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- We've got a cat and a dog now. - And I think...
0:24:28 > 0:24:30We had a little chat and I think we'll have a chat
0:24:30 > 0:24:32with the guy about the boxer now.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34You are animal lover,
0:24:34 > 0:24:38so what could I have expected?
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Right, two minutes left, Reds. It is now or never!
0:24:42 > 0:24:43Yeah, this one.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44Hi, how are you?
0:24:44 > 0:24:48We were in here earlier and we had a lovely look at your boxer.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50- It's marked up at 25.- Yeah.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52What's the best you could do on that for us?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54We were thinking more like ten.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55I would knock ten off.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Make it 15. You happy with that?
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Could it be 14 at a stretch?
0:25:00 > 0:25:01THEY LAUGH
0:25:01 > 0:25:05- Yes, all right.- 14. That will be fantastic. Thank you.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08- Put him back. Thank you very much. - You're welcome.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11- £14.- Thank you very much. - Thank you.- Good luck.
0:25:11 > 0:25:12Time's up!
0:25:12 > 0:25:15- Are you happy?- Yeah. - Cup of tea. Come on then.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17I think we deserve a cup of tea now.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- Yes, definitely.- Definitely. - Let's go.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Why don't we check out what the Red team bought, eh?
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Will they be sitting pretty with this kitty?
0:25:30 > 0:25:35They hope they'll get a good return on this sheepdog at £25.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40And they brought the iron curtain down on their shopping with
0:25:40 > 0:25:43this Russian-made boxer dog for £14.
0:25:43 > 0:25:47So, what's with this animal obsession of yours?
0:25:47 > 0:25:51We've always had a bit of an obsession with animals.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Especially at home. We've got two dogs, three cats, two snakes.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56So it kind of continued.
0:25:56 > 0:26:00Good. Well. And how much did you spend in total?
0:26:00 > 0:26:02- £51.- On all three items? - On all three.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05Not too much of an obsession with animals.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- Anyway, £51. I'd like £249 of leftover lolly.- Indeed.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11I can't believe I'm asking for that amount of money.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Which is your favourite animal?
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Favourite one is the little cat that I found.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17This little French vintage one with a little chewed off ear.
0:26:17 > 0:26:19It was so cute!
0:26:19 > 0:26:22We've bought a little Border collie figurine that looks
0:26:22 > 0:26:25- the spitting image of mine at home. - So those are your favourites?
0:26:25 > 0:26:27- Yeah, definitely.- And which is going to bring the biggest profit?
0:26:27 > 0:26:30- The collie.- Yeah. Definitely. - You reckon?- Yeah.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33OK, that's coming out of the kennel first. Good. OK, here we go, Anita.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35You're going to go out there
0:26:35 > 0:26:38and buy something that is not canine or feline.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39I hope.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42This is such a lovely young couple.
0:26:42 > 0:26:46And I wanted something that would reflect them
0:26:46 > 0:26:51- and this enormous amount of dosh that you've given me.- Yes. OK.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54So, there's a challenge. Spend the lot, please.
0:26:54 > 0:26:55I'll do my best.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58Whatever you like, anyway, will be super. Thank you, Anita.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02Right now though, why don't we check out what the Blue team bought, eh?
0:27:03 > 0:27:06They cut their teeth on this early-20th century silver
0:27:06 > 0:27:08baby's teether. Bought for £18.
0:27:10 > 0:27:12Next, they bought a Toby jug,
0:27:12 > 0:27:15and if you're waiting for the punch line, heh, it was £10.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19And like the bright sparks they are,
0:27:19 > 0:27:22they bought this silver vesta case for £34.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27Well, you're such a loving couple. Did you have a lovely time?
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- Fantastic time, thank you. - Really enjoyed it.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32- Now, rumour has it that you didn't spend a lot.- No, we didn't.
0:27:32 > 0:27:34THEY LAUGH
0:27:34 > 0:27:36A very naughty giggle.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37How much did you spend?
0:27:37 > 0:27:41- £62.- £62!- Mmm.- Good Lord!- I know.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45I'd like £238, which is a wodge, isn't it?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47£238 coming over. Thank you.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50It makes no difference really how much you spend.
0:27:50 > 0:27:52- As long as you buy wisely.- Yes.
0:27:52 > 0:27:54Which is your wisest buy, do you think?
0:27:54 > 0:27:57- What do you like the most? - The Toby jug is my smart buy, yeah.
0:27:57 > 0:28:00- You reckon?- Yeah.- Why's it the wisest, cos you like it the most?
0:28:00 > 0:28:02It will probably make the most money.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04OK, that's your prediction for the biggest profit.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06Do you agree with that, Toby jug?
0:28:06 > 0:28:08- On profits I think, yes. - On profits.
0:28:08 > 0:28:09But what about personal favourite?
0:28:09 > 0:28:13I like the little baby's rattle because I had to work hard for it.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15SHE LAUGHS
0:28:15 > 0:28:17I see. And do you agree with that?
0:28:17 > 0:28:20- Baby's rattle, favourite? - It was very nice.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23And he did have to work hard for it, so I'll let him off that one.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Right, fine. You'll agree with him, for a change.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29- I liked the little vesta case, actually.- Did you?- Yeah.
0:28:29 > 0:28:30- That was cute.- OK.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33It seems to me we've got a lot of liking going on here.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Now, Catherine, a little challenge for you,
0:28:35 > 0:28:38- with a huge wodge of money. - I've got something in mind.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40Oh, stand by for that then.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44It better look slippy, cos we're about to head to the auction.
0:28:52 > 0:28:56We've trotted approximately 50 miles, from Brackley to just
0:28:56 > 0:29:01outside Newbury, to be at Special Auction Service's saleroom.
0:29:01 > 0:29:04And no less a personage than Thomas Plant.
0:29:04 > 0:29:08- Hello.- Morning, Tom.- Morning. - Great to be here.
0:29:08 > 0:29:13The Reds have gone, well, how can I say, pet mad.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16- Um, they obviously like animals. - They certainly do.
0:29:16 > 0:29:18We start off with this plush cat.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21Which I would say has seen better days.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23What possessed them to buy it, I don't know.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- Well, it was only £12 actually. There you are.- We put £15-£20 on.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29- That's fair enough.- It's the kind of thing, I'll be up there,
0:29:29 > 0:29:32I'll be making a joke about it, who'll buy this pussycat?
0:29:32 > 0:29:34- Start me off here at eight... - And it'll sell for £40.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36You know what, there'll be hands like this.
0:29:36 > 0:29:38And it just...this happens at auction.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41- In your dreams.- In your dreams. - Well, maybe. I don't know.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44- But still, for £12, there it is. Quite fun.- Anyway, anyway...
0:29:44 > 0:29:47- Um, now, what about Beswick? - I love collies, I have to say.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49I had a collie called Lassie.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52- Did you?- She was a lovely dog. - Aw!- Lovely dog.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54How much is your estimate?
0:29:54 > 0:29:58- 20-30.- £25 they paid, which is pretty well spot on.
0:29:58 > 0:30:03Now, next we move to Fido here. He comes from the USSR.
0:30:03 > 0:30:07Yeah, he's made by a factory possibly called Lomonosov.
0:30:07 > 0:30:10- Really?- Yeah. Lomonosov Ceramics.
0:30:10 > 0:30:12The Russians had these Lomonosov ceramics.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14'USSR' they are commonly stamped.
0:30:14 > 0:30:17What you don't know about, Tom, is anybody's business.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20- £30-£40 is my estimate.- Is it?- Yeah.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23- Jamie only paid £14 for this old dog.- Gosh!
0:30:23 > 0:30:24So it's pretty good, isn't it?
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- Gosh, they've hardly spent any money!- They haven't.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29- They spent £51 on all three items. - TOM LAUGHS
0:30:29 > 0:30:33With any luck, the expert has gone out and blown the lot.
0:30:33 > 0:30:37- Hopefully.- Hopefully. Anyway, shall we find out?- Yes.- Let's.
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- Well, this is exciting, isn't it?- Yes.
0:30:40 > 0:30:45What did Anita spend your £249 of leftover lolly on?
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Let's find out. Here we go, Anita. Oooop!
0:30:47 > 0:30:49- Do you like it? - Yeah, it's fantastic.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52You guys have got so much style
0:30:52 > 0:30:56and I thought I would buy a bit of Edwardian style for you.
0:30:56 > 0:31:01London maker, now that's an indication of quality.
0:31:01 > 0:31:07Made in 1905. But I love the restrained elegance of it.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11- Tell me, what do you think? - I think it's absolutely beautiful.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15Definitely. I like the gilding round the edge. It looks fantastic.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18- And it's in such a good quality considering the age as well.- Yeah.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22- I paid £130 for it.- Really?- Yes. - That's not too bad, actually.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24- Gosh.- That's OK.- I love it.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26I think, as a design, it's a really beautiful thing.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28How much do you think it'll bring in the auction?
0:31:28 > 0:31:31I think it will be well fancied.
0:31:31 > 0:31:37It's not going to fly to 300. But we might make £10-£20 on it.
0:31:37 > 0:31:39I think you've done really well with this.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42- Isn't that clever of her! - Definitely.- Marvellous. OK.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45- We'll hand that back. It's exciting though, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:31:45 > 0:31:49- But you don't pick until after the sale of your first three items.- OK.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51But after that, you get a chance at it.
0:31:51 > 0:31:52But right now,
0:31:52 > 0:31:56let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Anita's lovely mirror.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Well...
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Tom, what do you make of this?
0:32:00 > 0:32:02I think it's fabulous.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06What a lovely Edwardian silver dressing table mirror.
0:32:06 > 0:32:12I love the swags to it. The geometric design. It's so Edwardian.
0:32:12 > 0:32:13And so rare, isn't it?
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Cos most dressing table mirrors are oval and florid and over the top.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19When is the last time you saw a neo-classical one like this?
0:32:19 > 0:32:22- Pff! Never!- And once upon a time, look, it had a strut
0:32:22 > 0:32:26on the back. A nice hinged kind of arm that's unfortunately come away.
0:32:26 > 0:32:30It would have been this beautiful Royal sort of blue, wouldn't it?
0:32:30 > 0:32:33This purple, this mauve, but unfortunately that's all gone.
0:32:33 > 0:32:37It's been worn away. But it doesn't take it away from the actual piece.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40- No.- Which you'd hang in your lavatory,
0:32:40 > 0:32:42you'd hang in your hallway.
0:32:42 > 0:32:44Or have another strut made and put it on the dressing table.
0:32:44 > 0:32:48- Yeah, you could do.- So, Tom, putting your best estimating hat on...
0:32:48 > 0:32:50- 120-180.- Good man.
0:32:50 > 0:32:52Because Anita's invested.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55She's spent £130 on this and she really rates it.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57You and I know that it could make £200, don't we?
0:32:57 > 0:33:00- It could do. It's such a good object.- Yeah.
0:33:00 > 0:33:02Such a good object. Well, well done. That's really exciting.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05If the team decide to go with it.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08Anyway, that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.
0:33:08 > 0:33:11That looks just a little thin. And they kick on with their teether.
0:33:11 > 0:33:15- Yeah, it is a teether.- Who buys these teething ring jobs today then?
0:33:15 > 0:33:19Do you know, it's people with display cabinets. Fellow dealers.
0:33:19 > 0:33:22They're sweet things. They're christening presents.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25- Yeah.- Um, yeah. £25-£35, we think.- Do you?
0:33:25 > 0:33:28£18 paid so they paid the right price.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31- It's dated. It's 1932. It's a good one.- Yeah. There you go.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33Then we've got old Tobe. Look.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35The Toby...
0:33:35 > 0:33:38- Yeah, just, you know, it's Toby, it's Punch, it's...- Late?
0:33:38 > 0:33:42- It's late. It's yesterday's antiques.- No likey?
0:33:42 > 0:33:45- No likey.- How muchy? - We've put 25 to 35.- Did you?
0:33:45 > 0:33:48£10. You see? They paid the right price.
0:33:48 > 0:33:49Um. What about the vesta case?
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- It's a classic, isn't it? - It looks...it's a classic.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55It looks a good heavy gauge of silver. We've put £30-£40 on it.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57OK, they paid £34. So they paid the right price there.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59They haven't paid much of a price, which is their strategy.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03They only spend the £62, which means that Catherine had a huge wodge to
0:34:03 > 0:34:05go and find the bonus buy. I don't think they're going to need it,
0:34:05 > 0:34:09- but let's go and have a look at it anyway, shall we? Do let's!- Let's.
0:34:09 > 0:34:15Well, team, you spent a miserable £62. You gave Catherine £238.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17Catherine, what did you spend it all on?
0:34:17 > 0:34:19Oh...
0:34:19 > 0:34:21- Oh!- I spent it all.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26- On a box?- On a box.- Oh. - It's not an ordinary box.
0:34:26 > 0:34:29- Oh, that's nice.- That's cute. - It's quite nice, actually.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31- Yeah!- Little manicure set. - You spent it all?
0:34:31 > 0:34:35- £40.- Oh.- 40?- I know! That's what I thought.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38It's actually silver-plate and this is Guilloche enamel.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40- But it's a lovely blue colour. - It's lovely, isn't it?
0:34:40 > 0:34:42And it's complete as well.
0:34:42 > 0:34:45I will tell you, there is a little bit of damage.
0:34:45 > 0:34:50But I think for £40, being in the original case, it's not bad.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52I mean, you could set up a nail bar with that lot, couldn't you?
0:34:52 > 0:34:54THEY LAUGH
0:34:54 > 0:34:56- That's your equipment all done. - You could.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59- Yeah, definitely.- You're happy with that?- Yeah.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00She's guaranteeing you a profit.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03Wrest with that thought, because right now, for the audience at home,
0:35:03 > 0:35:06let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about the manicure set.
0:35:06 > 0:35:10There you go. A nice box set for you, Tom.
0:35:10 > 0:35:14- It's lovely. Silver plated rather than silver.- Mm.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17- What's the condition like? - I would give it a six out of ten.
0:35:17 > 0:35:21- Would you?- There's a little bit of damage to the pot here.
0:35:21 > 0:35:25But you've got the scissors, the file, etc.
0:35:25 > 0:35:28- And the buffer. We've put £60-£80 on it.- Perfect.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31£40 paid by the lovely Catherine. You are on the rostrum today?
0:35:31 > 0:35:32- Of course.- Just as well.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Start the bidding here at 40. 40 I have.
0:35:36 > 0:35:3845.
0:35:38 > 0:35:4050. At £50 once...
0:35:40 > 0:35:4150 twice.
0:35:41 > 0:35:47Lovely, now, Amy, Jamie. Just how excited are you, Amy?
0:35:47 > 0:35:49- Extremely excited. - Extremely excited.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51- It's Amy's first auction as well. - It is.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54You've never been to an auction before today? Wow!
0:35:54 > 0:35:57We know that's a very special moment, don't we, Anita?
0:35:57 > 0:35:59It is indeed.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01- It could change your whole life. - You never know.
0:36:01 > 0:36:04The first item of yours is the plush French cat.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06And here it comes.
0:36:06 > 0:36:10French pussycat with plastic eyes and sewn-on bell.
0:36:10 > 0:36:12But, ladies and gentlemen, start me here at £10.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Give this cat a home at £10.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17£8. Eight for the pussy. Come on.
0:36:17 > 0:36:19At eight, at eight, at eight.
0:36:19 > 0:36:20Eight it is, come on!
0:36:20 > 0:36:23Ladies and gentlemen... No? No takers?
0:36:23 > 0:36:25Is that it? Eight it is.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28Minus four. Bad luck, team.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Now, let's go with collie.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Lot 177. This is a Beswick ceramic figure of a sheepdog.
0:36:33 > 0:36:37Start me here at 15. 15. 18. 20.
0:36:37 > 0:36:3920 it is. At £20. 22.
0:36:39 > 0:36:4125. At £25 once.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43At £25 twice.
0:36:43 > 0:36:44All done then.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47Oh, no. That's 25. Wiped its face.
0:36:47 > 0:36:50Lovely. OK, minus four remains the score.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52Now, here comes the boxer.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55Start me here at 15. 15 for the boxer.
0:36:55 > 0:36:59- It's gone yellow at 18 now. At 18.- 18. You're in profit.
0:36:59 > 0:37:02Online at 18. One more, ladies and gentlemen, it's surely at one more.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04- 20 I've got there.- £20!
0:37:04 > 0:37:06At 20. At 20. Coming back at you.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08At two now. Go on!
0:37:08 > 0:37:0922 once.
0:37:09 > 0:37:1222 twice. And I sell...
0:37:12 > 0:37:14£22 is plus £8.
0:37:14 > 0:37:16You were minus £4, which means you are plus £4.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18How beautiful is that?
0:37:18 > 0:37:21- What a wonderful auctioneer. - It's fantastic.
0:37:21 > 0:37:22Just pushed it at the last minute
0:37:22 > 0:37:25and that little push transformed the job. Plus £4.
0:37:25 > 0:37:28Now, what are you going to do about this wall mirror?
0:37:28 > 0:37:30You want to go home with folding money or £4?
0:37:30 > 0:37:34We're going to go for it. We trust Anita. We trust Anita.
0:37:34 > 0:37:35We are going to risk it for a biscuit.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38In fact, for a mirror. And here it comes.
0:37:38 > 0:37:42An Edwardian framed wall mirror. Having a beautiful design.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44Good looking lot, this one here. Start me at £80.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46Start me at 80. 80.
0:37:46 > 0:37:47Five. 90. Five.
