Here's a voice you may not recognise | 0:00:02 | 0:00:03 | |
as I'm usually an expert on the show. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:06 | |
I'm standing in for Tim on Bargain Hunt today. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
And we're in Anglesey, separated from mainland Wales | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
by the Menai Strait. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:14 | |
And we're bringing a belter of a show, | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
straight to your screens today. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
Right, hang on a minute, Tim's lines, they're not usually that bad. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
They are, yeah, they are. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:24 | |
They are? OK. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
In that case, ladies and gentlemen, let's go bargain hunting! | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
Yes! | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |
Today on Bargain Hunt, time is of the essence | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
and our teams have one hour to spend their £300. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:06 | |
So, they're about to have the time of their lives | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
but first let's see what's coming up. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
The fast starting Reds have cash burning a hole in their pocket... | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
Ignored my advice, let's look around. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
I just wanted to get spending. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
..whilst the Blues are following their animal instincts. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
-I quite like those bears but you don't, do you? -No. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
-I'm not too sure either. -OK, I like your style. Be honest, OK. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
But how successful will they be at the auction? | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
-Yes, over there! -Oooh! | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
Oo-oo-ooh! | 0:01:34 | 0:01:35 | |
But before that, let's meet today's teams. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
Today's Bargain Hunt is made up of a couple and a couple of friends. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
We have Ian and Gemma for the Reds | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
and Gemma and Karen for the Blues. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
-Hello, everybody. -ALL: -Hello. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
-So, Ian and Gemma, welcome. How are you? -Very good, thank you. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
-Fine, thank you. -Excellent. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
Well, Ian, I hear that you're the head teacher of a school | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
-but it's not your average school? -It's not your average school. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
We've got 240 children but we've got | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
150 chickens, 33 pheasants and more reptiles than I care to think about. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:06 | |
-OK, I actually wasn't expecting that! -No, no. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
-So a veritable zoo? -Yeah, it is. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:11 | |
What we try to do | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
is we try to link literacy and numeracy targets to chickens. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
-That's one way of doing it. -Slightly different to most schools, isn't it? | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
With all this going on at school, | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
I guess at home it's a haven of peace, do you just relax at home? | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
We do relax at home but we've got... | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
I think I've got 27 tortoises at home at the moment | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
and we've got the large ones living in the attic. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
So, at night you can hear this kind of knocking sound | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
coming from the attic. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:37 | |
In fact, the first thing I said to my neighbours was, | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
"If you hear a knocking coming from ours, it's not me and Gemma, | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
"it's the tortoise." | 0:02:42 | 0:02:43 | |
And Gemma, what is it that you do yourself? | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
I'm a nurse in our local hospital. Been there for about ten years now. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
That's amazing. The world needs more caring people like yourself, | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
-it must be a tough job, though? -It is tough at times, yeah. -Oh, gosh. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
-So a way to unwind is with the tortoises? -With the tortoise, yeah. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
And what about your tactics today, what are you thinking about? | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
I think we're just going to go for what we like. Stick to what we know. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
It generally pays off. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:06 | |
-It's lovely chatting with you. -BOTH: -Thank you. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
Let's talk to the Blues. The lovely Gemma and Karen. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
-Hello, how are you today, ladies? -Hello. -Hi. -Excited? | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
Really excited. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:15 | |
Well, Gemma, | 0:03:15 | 0:03:16 | |
I hear that you have an interesting job that might involve the arts? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
Yeah, I'm an art teacher at a secondary school. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
-It's a Welsh secondary school. -Oh, fantastic. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
-So you teach art in Welsh? -Yeah. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
So if you teach in Welsh could you teach me a little Welsh? | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
-I could. I could, yes. -What do you want to teach me what to say? | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
-What about, "Welcome to Bargain Hunt"? -That would work! | 0:03:34 | 0:03:38 | |
-Croeso... -Croeso. -..i Bargain Hunt. -Croeso i Bargain Hunt. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:43 | |
Yeah! | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
That was OK, that was great. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:46 | |
When you're not teaching, what do you get up to? | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
-I love to row. -Oh, wow. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
Yeah, I row at the bottom of Snowdon, there's a lake there, | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
-that's where I row. -Wow, what an amazing setting. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
-It must feel like you're in another world. -It's amazing. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
And Karen, what about yourself? Are you also involved in teaching, too? | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
-No, I'm a speech and language therapist. -Ah, right, OK. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
I thought there was a theme here with teachers going on. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
So you teach therapy, OK. So tell me about that. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
Yeah, I work with people with learning disabilities | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
so from the little children to adults of all ages. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:15 | |
It's so important, isn't it? | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
All this communication but I suppose with the advent of the internet | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
and things, people don't need to communicate so much verbally, | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
so it's important that you keep up this therapy | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
-cos it's easy to shy away from it, I would imagine. -Yeah. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
Yeah, well, people get by and it's more sort of getting... | 0:04:27 | 0:04:30 | |
helping people to make their choices and it's really interesting. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
-It's quite a variety, really, no day is the same. -Absolutely. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
And when you're talking about making choices, what kind of choices | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
are you going to be making today when you're out shopping? | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
-Oh, winning choices. -Yeah! | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
-Oh, you reckon, do you? -Plan to win. -Excellent. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
Are you listening to that, guys? | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
Well, I suppose it's time to see. Let's hand over the money. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
So, I've got £300 for Ian and Gemma | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
and £300 for you, Gemma and Karen. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
Now, off you go and have an amazing time. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
And there's only one thing left to say, "I ffwrdd a nwh!" away they go. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:05 | |
Hoping to teach our teams a thing or two about antiques today | 0:05:05 | 0:05:09 | |
are our experts. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:10 | |
Keeping a lookout for his pupils in the Red team, it's Thomas Plant. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:17 | |
And hoping to set the class alight with inspiration for the Blues, | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
it's Charles Hanson. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:21 | |
So, what are our teams looking for today? | 0:05:21 | 0:05:24 | |
-Ian and Gemma, are you excited? -Yes. -I'm excited, yes. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
I'm quite nervous because I'm here with a head teacher. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
Don't worry, we're after your advice today. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:32 | |
Karen, look at me, what's the plan? | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
We're going to look for nice pretty things, jewellery. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
-Find something that we really like, really, isn't it, Gem? -Yeah. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
Maybe something a bit unusual. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
-Gemma? -Yeah, arty and creative, I think. -OK. That is very interesting. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:47 | |
Right, teams, your 60 minutes starts...now! | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
But be careful, it can fly by. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:52 | |
Come on. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:53 | |
Let's go and find those fabulous bits. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:55 | |
They're off! | 0:05:55 | 0:05:57 | |
Professor of profits Charles has some wise words | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
to help the Blues start their shopping. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
-Just take a look. -OK. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:03 | |
-Look at the glitz, look at the glamour. -Where to start? | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
Look at the antiques, OK. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:07 | |
But with a cunning strategy up his sleeve for the Reds, | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
it sounds like Tom has plans to be top teacher. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
I think what you do is you look and you look | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
and then you make notes of what you've seen and you get the prices. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
-Then, in the last 10, 20 minutes, you then decide. -Yes. -OK. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:25 | |
-But that will go out the window in the first items of your buy. -OK. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
-Yeah? -Right, OK, then. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
Hm. So some interesting tactics from the teams. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
But at the end of the hour, just who will have this in the bag? | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
-Just look at what you see. -That's pretty. Do you think it's silver? | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
I actually think it's plated rather than being silver. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
£18. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
-It's something maybe we could, like, keep in mind. -Absolutely. -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
Just warming up. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:50 | |
Warming up is fine, Blues, but don't take too long | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
as the Reds look like they're already up to a canter. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
What about that amber glass? | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
-The decanter? -Yeah. -Mm. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
You really have got this... | 0:07:05 | 0:07:06 | |
vintage-come-moderno look. You like it. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:10 | |
So, the amber and the clear... Very nice, isn't it? | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
Turn it over. What have we got there? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
The point at which the glass blower has polished... | 0:07:15 | 0:07:17 | |
Cos when he's blown that, | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
he's got his bit of amber glass out of the glory hole with his steel | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
and his tools and he's blown it | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
and that's the bit which has cooled down and he's polished that off and | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
then he's got a bit of clear glass and then attached it on to it, | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
so quite a bit of work's been done. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
-Do you think the blob is original to the...? -Yes, the stopper here? | 0:07:32 | 0:07:37 | |
Yeah, it fits well. Would you use that? | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
I'd have it in the centre of a table. That would look lovely. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
-It's a decanter, for wine. -For wine? Yeah. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
I think that would be used now, wouldn't it? | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
Yeah, that's exactly what it's for. Right, we can see the price at 45, | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
-which I think is slightly better than the coffee set. -OK. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
-A bit more special, isn't it? -Yeah. Let me see. What's the best on that? | 0:07:54 | 0:07:58 | |
-40. -40. -40 would be on that. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
-So, what do you really like about it? -I love the colour, the shape. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
-Yeah. -I can imagine on a large table. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
If you really like it and you're going with your heart, | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
-do you think that's going to make a profit at £40? -Yes! | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
Of course, you're going to say yes. But I think that it's got a chance. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
If you want my honest opinion, | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
I would value that at auction at between £40 and £60. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
It's cool, it's got a look to it, | 0:08:23 | 0:08:24 | |
it's what people are buying at the moment. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
-It's quite fashionable, even now. -Absolutely. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
And as auctioneers, we're only in the fashion business. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
-Is it Scandinavian? -I reckon that's Scandi all day long. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
-Probably Danish. -I reckon we should go for it. It's lovely. 40 quid. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
-Are you hot for this? -I agree. -Hot for this! -Done! | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
-40 quid. -Thank you very much. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
-First item down, within sort of ten minutes. -Yeah. -Ignored my advice. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:50 | |
-Let's look around. -THEY LAUGH | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
I just want to get spending! | 0:08:52 | 0:08:55 | |
Fantastic. So, the Reds have their first item. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
Well done, Ian and Gemma! | 0:08:59 | 0:09:00 | |
But with only ten minutes on the clock, | 0:09:00 | 0:09:03 | |
there's barely anything between the two teams yet. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
-THEY LAUGH -The polar bears down there as well. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
-I quite like those bears, but you don't, do you? -No! | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
Be honest, OK. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
I'm a man and sometimes the taste can be different. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
Brrr! Frosty reception there, Charles. But, come on, Blues. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:20 | |
You do need to get your skates on, | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
or you could end up poles apart from the Reds. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
-Is this Moorcroft? -That is Moorcroft. -Yeah. -Very popular. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:29 | |
-Everybody likes Moorcroft. -£100? That looks like a Moorcroft. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
-That is Moorcroft as well, yeah. -120. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
-I think you've bought really well with your decanter. -Yeah. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
And you'd be letting yourself down by buying the Moorcroft. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
-It's a bit mumsy, isn't it? And we're... -You're not! | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
-Yeah. -You're more than that! | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
Mum's the word on the Moorcroft then, Gemma. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
And from one piece of china to another, | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
it looks as if the Blues have spotted a new best friend. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:56 | |
-This one here, you like? -He's amazing! | 0:09:56 | 0:09:59 | |
-What do you think of him? -I'm scared to pick him up. He's beautiful. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
-Oh, wow! -Wow! Well, you know what? It's the Blue team, isn't it? | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
He's definitely on the Blue team! | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
-And he's pretty. -Why is he pretty? -I just love his quirky face. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
-He's so charming. Hello! -He's... -THEY LAUGH | 0:10:13 | 0:10:16 | |
Well, you know what, he's almost speechless, isn't he? | 0:10:16 | 0:10:20 | |
What can I tell you? | 0:10:20 | 0:10:21 | |
First of all, what's really important is the condition. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
So, just caress his body and make sure there's no chips or | 0:10:24 | 0:10:27 | |
blemishes or crazing as well, | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
lines in the body. He's good, isn't he? | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
He's what we call a Chinese Dog of Fo and these | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
dogs of Fo works are synonymous with Japanese, Chinese culture. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
Back to the K'ang-hsi period, the Ming dynasty, | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
and then they've just been blossoming ever | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
since in manufacture and indeed made for export. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
So, this is a European Chinese Dog of Fo, made for us | 0:10:46 | 0:10:50 | |
Westerners to enjoy. What are we missing? | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
-You two are mates, aren't you? -It looks like he's one of a pair. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
-Aw! -That's a shame. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
-He's on his own. -I think he needs to be part of our team. -You think so? | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
-Yeah. -So, what would you pay for it in a saleroom? | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
-See if we can get near what the dealer's wanting for him. -10, £15? | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
-Say again? -10, £15? -It wasn't me! | 0:11:06 | 0:11:10 | |
It wasn't me who said that! | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
I like your style. Always start low. So, how much is he? | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
-With a big smile! -We've got 65 on him. -I think take a gamble. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:21 | |
-I like him. -So, the very best, sir...? -38. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
-Oh! -Yeah. -What do you think? -Yeah. -OK, it's up to you. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
If that hand comes out for a handshake, it's a deal. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
We've got it! Thanks, sir! | 0:11:30 | 0:11:31 | |
Great stuff! | 0:11:31 | 0:11:32 | |
The Blues have released the hound for their first purchase | 0:11:32 | 0:11:36 | |
and are off the leash at last! | 0:11:36 | 0:11:38 | |
So, whilst the teams continue to look for their second items, | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
it's time to have a look at something that made me tick. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:47 | |
Let us take a moment to look at this absolutely beautiful | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
timepiece here. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:51 | |
It's an unusual shape, isn't it? | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
And it's a telling shape because any one of the dealers here today, | 0:11:53 | 0:11:56 | |
if you were to bring this in front of them, | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
they would know it's a Sedan clock. Now, what an unusual name - Sedan. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:04 | |
And what is that? Well, it's an 18th century mode of transport. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
You know, those lovely bourgeois boxes in which the gentry sat, | 0:12:07 | 0:12:11 | |
as a porter on either side carried you around town. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
Well, that's a Sedan and here, we're probably 1850s or so, | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
but that's where it gets its shape. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
Now, the shape is unusual. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:22 | |
You've got this lovely pendant bow up here | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
and the rods attaching it to the fitting. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
And it's heavy because it's made of bronze. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
And this gorgeous gold exterior is | 0:12:30 | 0:12:32 | |
described as French ormolu. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
And that's when high carat gold was ground down | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
and mixed with mercury and then used to paint items made | 0:12:37 | 0:12:41 | |
out of bronze and it really has a lovely effect. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
And the rose garland that carries on continually around the case | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
really keeps the floral theme of the pendant | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
continuing into the actual body of the timepiece. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
And what about the enamel dial itself? | 0:12:54 | 0:12:56 | |
It's got that beautiful motif of the swags | 0:12:56 | 0:12:59 | |
and they join together to create a continual swag of lovely pink | 0:12:59 | 0:13:04 | |
and blue flowers and, really, | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
it's such a shame that there's a slight chip on the white | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
enamel dial because someone has been a little bit overzealous with | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
the key while they were winding the cylinder movement that's inside. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:16 | |
So, why would this Sedan clock be fashionable today? | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
Well, they're ornamental, luxurious, | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
and that quality is reflected in the price because to pick up | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
one of these today would set you back £400 or £500. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:30 | |
It's probably time to start saving. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:31 | |
Back with the shopping and it's one-all. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:35 | |
However, the Reds may just have found something not to be | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
sniffed at. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:39 | |
-That's lovely. Very simple again, isn't it? -1896. -What have you seen? | 0:13:39 | 0:13:44 | |
-Snuffbox. -Snuffbox. Ian, you have a look. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:48 | |
-How do you open that? -Oh, wow! Look at the hinge. -Look at the hinge in there, yeah. -Wow! Seamless. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:53 | |
Yeah, it is seamless, you're quite right. Yeah. Go on, Gemma. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:56 | |
-You have a go. -Has it got a hallmark? -That's lovely, that is. | 0:13:56 | 0:13:59 | |
-Do you press it, do you think, somewhere? -Well, you're close. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
What you do is you just squeeze it either side. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
-Ta-da! -That was quick, wasn't it? -Yeah, have a go. It's lovely. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:09 | |
It's just so perfect. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:10 | |
-How much is it? -It's 128. -THOMAS GASPS | 0:14:10 | 0:14:13 | |
-I think I might need your nursing... -CPR here! -CPR. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:17 | |
I need your knowledge here! | 0:14:17 | 0:14:19 | |
-Oh! -And is it silver-plated? -That looks like it's... | 0:14:19 | 0:14:22 | |
That's the hallmark there. It's rather nice. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:24 | |
-That's beautiful, that, isn't it? -Yeah. What's your very best on that? | 0:14:24 | 0:14:28 | |
That one, I can do for 95. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:29 | |
-I like that. -Yeah. -You've probably got just under 40 minutes. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
Believe you me, that time zips by. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
-OK, we'll have a think, shall we? I do like it though. -Yeah, me too. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
So, the Reds aren't turning their noses up at the snuffbox. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
Meanwhile, the Blues are still "brooching" the subject of that | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
ever-difficult second item. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:48 | |
-Hello, madam. -Hello. -How are you? -I'm good, thank you. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:52 | |
We think she's too good to be true, is that right? That lady brooch? | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
I'd call it a very young collectible, | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
in the sense that it's purporting to be an Art Nouveau bar brooch. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:03 | |
It caught my eye. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
If it was London 1903, it wouldn't be, as the price says, £25. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
-It would be more like 150 or 180. -Yeah. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:13 | |
Because it's not actually what it purports to be, in terms of age... | 0:15:13 | 0:15:17 | |
-Steer away. -I'm out. -Yeah. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
-Time's ticking. We'd better go. -Thanks! | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
So, Charles and the Blues are out, and if the Reds don't get | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
a move on, they could be out of time before they know it. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
Some gentle persuasion could be called for. Tom? | 0:15:28 | 0:15:32 | |
-Have a look round here. -OK. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
This is why I was sort of hovering around the chairs, | 0:15:35 | 0:15:39 | |
thinking that maybe you might think, "Oh, look. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
"They look quite clean and cool," | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
and it matches the clean and cool design you bought with the decanter. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:49 | |
-They're nice. -And they are Ercol, aren't they? -How much? | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
-Golden Dawn, Ercol. -68. -Are they 68 each? | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
Sorry, I've disturbed you from doing something quite important. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
-But they're 68, they're each though, aren't they? -Yes. -Each. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
I would have thought it would have been the bargain of the century | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
if they were 68 for the pair. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
-We can try. -Maybe we can work something out. -110 for the two. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:10 | |
-110 for the two. -I was just sort of... | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
My brain was sort of cogging along. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
Do you think it's yet another thing we've got to think about? | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
-Yeah, I think so. -Is it? | 0:16:19 | 0:16:21 | |
-Oh! -They are lovely, aren't they? -Yeah. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
There's a lot of style to them, isn't there. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:26 | |
What you've got going for it, you've got style, you've got a name, | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
they're proper designer pieces, | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
but they are £110. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:32 | |
Now, it's about time I popped in and had a word. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
I'm sorry to interrupt, but I spotted you a mile off. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:38 | |
-You look comfortable. -I am! I'm having a good time! | 0:16:38 | 0:16:41 | |
-Are you having a good time? -Very much so, yeah. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
-Oh, my goodness! -Can we have some more money? -THEY LAUGH | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
I'm going to leave you in this man's capable hands, but have fun! | 0:16:46 | 0:16:49 | |
-Enjoy yourselves! Time is running out. -Thank you, thank you. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
Well, time is running out. You heard what Natasha said. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
I'm going to give you ten minutes, walk around, have a think, | 0:16:55 | 0:16:59 | |
and then we'll move on. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:00 | |
-OK. -OK. -Yeah? -Yeah. -Come on, let's go. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
So, the reserve list is growing for the Reds, | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
but this could be a risky strategy. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
Only time will tell. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:09 | |
Charles has recalled the Blues for a bit of a pep talk. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:13 | |
We've got now about 20 minutes to buy two items, | 0:17:13 | 0:17:17 | |
-which means one item per ten minutes. -Yeah. -Feeling confident? | 0:17:17 | 0:17:20 | |
-Yeah. -Yes. Let's do it. -True Blues. -Yeah. -Yeah, let's do it. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:25 | |
Sounds like a plan! And they're off! Again! | 0:17:25 | 0:17:28 | |
Now, Thomas has found a couple of pepperettes | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
with an asking price of £90. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
-So, little novelty peppers. -Little chicks. -Little chicks. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:38 | |
-Cos you do chickens. -We do chickens. -Little hinges for the lids. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:41 | |
-They're lovely. -I'm going to make a cheeky offer and see what she says. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
-Madam... -Yes. -Would you take £30? | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
-No, not really. -What would you take? -How about 40? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
40, that's very, very reasonable. 40, so we started at... | 0:17:52 | 0:17:55 | |
They were 90. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
£40, this is... I think we've got profit in these. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
-And I think it's time to make a decision. -OK, the chairs, definitely, yeah? -Yeah. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |
-For myself, I'd go for the snuffbox. It's just the lovely... -OK. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
-The hinge. -Lovely. And the hinge... -OK. Go away. And do your buying. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:12 | |
Well said, Tom. Go on, Reds. It's definitely time for some decisions. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:17 | |
Time is running out for both teams. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
-Why don't we wrap round and come back down here, shall we? -OK. -OK. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:23 | |
And the Blues are literally running | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
and could be running out of ideas too. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
Sorry. We've been here before. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
It's starting to look like you need a sit down, Charles. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
Maybe the Reds can help. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
-Right, they're still here. -Yeah. -That's a good sign. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
-We'd like to buy those. -Can we buy them, please? | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
-You may. -Excellent. -Well done. Shake the lady's hand. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
Diolch yn fawr i chi. Diolch. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
-What was that? -Thank you very much in Welsh. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
-Thank you very much in English. Thank you very much. -Say "diolch". | 0:18:47 | 0:18:50 | |
-Diolch. Diolch. -That's not bad, yeah. Very good. -Diolch. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
That's "thank you" is it? | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
-Yeah. -Brilliant. £110, that's your second item. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
I think we need to go and wrap up the buying and get the last one. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
-Thank you. Diolch. -Diolch. Thank you. | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
He's just showing off now! Well done, Gemma and Ian. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:06 | |
With only six minutes to go, that's your second item retrieved | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
and purchased. One to go, but hurry! | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
-And speaking of hurrying... -SHE CLEARS HER THROAT | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
..Charles and Co... | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
Hold on. I was thinking polar bears. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
-Polar bears? -They've gone, they've gone! -No, they're there. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
-They're there. -They're there. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:24 | |
-What do you think of the polar bears? -OK, let's have a proper look. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
-You liked them from the start, didn't you? -Yeah. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
What can you tell us about them, Charles? | 0:19:29 | 0:19:32 | |
I just think, if you think about the fact that this beautiful white | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
onyx has almost been cut to create that icy polar bear landscape. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:40 | |
-Now, what would you use them for? -Bookends. -Exactly. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
Do you know what? | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
They do actually look nicer closer up than they did on the table. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:49 | |
-They're sweet. -They would date to, I suspect, 1920s, '30s. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:54 | |
-What do you think? -How much do you think they would go for? | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
I think if these could be about £30. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
I would happily guide them at sale between 40 and 60. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
Your very best price? We were thinking 20. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:05 | |
-What price is it? -45. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
Trideg. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:08 | |
-Trideg? -30. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
£30. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
-£30? Tre... Tre... -Trideg. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
-Trideg. -What are you thinking? | 0:20:14 | 0:20:16 | |
-30. -I think 30 is a good price. -Trideg punt. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
Now, pay attention, here's another Welsh lesson. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
Dwy o'r afalau Cymraeg... | 0:20:23 | 0:20:24 | |
-Sori? -Dwy afalau. -Dau afal? -Am trideg. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:30 | |
-Am trideg? -Ie. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:31 | |
He said he'll give us the two apples for 30 as well. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
-Included in the price. -How could a girl refuse?! | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
We can eat them on the way. We've got another ten minutes to go. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
A un i Charles. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
-Well, that's very kind. So... -We've got an apple and these. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:45 | |
So we've got a snack and these to take to the auction. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:48 | |
I say, let's go. I think the polar bears at 30 is a good buy. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
How do we say we'll buy them? | 0:20:52 | 0:20:53 | |
-'Nawn ni brynu rhain. -'Nawn ni brynu rhain. -Diolch yn fawr. -Diolch. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:57 | |
-Thank you. -Thank you very much. -Pob lwc. | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
-OK, head's on the block, Charles! -Ten minutes. And my head's on the block. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:03 | |
Thanks a lot(!) | 0:21:03 | 0:21:05 | |
So, with Charles' head on the block and not much left on the clock, | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
it's time to shuffle off for their third and final item. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Well done, Blues. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
Tic-toc, Reds! | 0:21:14 | 0:21:16 | |
Was that plan to be sniffed at after all | 0:21:16 | 0:21:18 | |
or will they get back for their final item in the nick of time? | 0:21:18 | 0:21:22 | |
-I hope it's still there. I hope it's still there. -Fingers crossed. -Fingers crossed. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
-It's still there. Right. 95. -95. -Thank you very much. What do you think? You want to go for it? | 0:21:26 | 0:21:31 | |
-Yeah, definitely. -Yeah, 95. -Thank you very much. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
Well done, Reds! Last item bought and only three minutes left. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:40 | |
But finding that final item for the Blues is proving to be a real pig! | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |
Look! A pair of pigs! Aw, they're really cute! | 0:21:44 | 0:21:48 | |
-Are you being serious? -Yeah. They've got bow ties on and everything. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
I think you should hold him. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:56 | |
-THEY LAUGH -Tell me, are you being serious? Gemma, look at me. | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
-Are you being serious? -She is. -It's the 11th hour now and you've pulled out a pair of pigs. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:05 | |
-Yeah. -Actually, they're not bad. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:06 | |
It says, "HJ Wood and Sons, 1940s cookie jars." | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
Pull the other one down as well. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
-Just tell me. -Aw... -Just, just sell them. I hear all these "aw"s. OK. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
Well, I had an auntie who used to collect pig things, | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
-like fridge magnets. -Yeah, yes. -All kinds of things. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
-And I think they're really cute. -I think they're sweet. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
-They're useful, cookie jars. Really useful. -Let's put them into context. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:29 | |
I wish they were Wemyss, because the most important pigs ever made | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
were probably by the Wemyss factory in Fife in Scotland. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
These pigs are second-rate but | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
they're charming because actually when I first saw them I thought, | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
"Oh, my God, they're quite modern. They really have got no age." | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
But looking at the base-mark for HJ Wood and Sons, and look at the | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
foot-rim there. They've literally been in the mud for about 60 years. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:52 | |
-What are they worth at auction? -As a pair... | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
-I think they'd start at 50 for a pair. -Hello, sir. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
-This wasn't what I was expecting. -Hello. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
-Like, it wasn't me, OK? -They... They're period and they will sell. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:03 | |
-Two for one. -Look at the ladies. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
- Oh, no, no. - Two for one. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
- I've got to make a bit, haven't I? - Two for one. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
- No, I'll do 40. - Please. | 0:23:09 | 0:23:10 | |
- 40 a pair. £20 each. That's fair. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
-Deal. Thank you very much. -Don't drop it. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
-Are you a marksman? -I am. -Thanks a lot, yeah. Thanks a lot. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
Time is up. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
LAUGHTER Well, we've got two pigs. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
-We've got two polar bears. -Two polar bears. -And the Dog of Fo. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
And that's it, the hour's up, team. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:30 | |
Now, let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:34 | |
The Reds blew £40 on a hand-blown Scandinavian glass wine decanter. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:41 | |
They hoped to rest easy with a pair of Ercol carver dining chairs. | 0:23:41 | 0:23:49 | |
And sniffed a whiff of potential profit with this silver snuffbox. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:53 | |
Right then, Red team. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:56 | |
I hear you didn't have a lot of time at the end, there. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:59 | |
-It went really quickly. -What's your favourite item? | 0:23:59 | 0:24:01 | |
-I'd say the amber decanter. -And Ian, what about you? | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
I like the snuffbox. I would have liked that myself, to be honest. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
Now, what's going to bring you the biggest profit? | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
-I think it's the decanter. -Yeah. We'll see in the auction. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
The decanter. So you must have bought it for a good price. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:15 | |
-And how much did you spend overall? -245. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
Which leaves a measly £55, which I will take back from you. Thank you. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
Hand straight over to Thomas. Did you have a great day today, Thomas? | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
I had a fabulous day. They were wonderful. Stylish, intelligent... | 0:24:25 | 0:24:30 | |
That's so lovely to hear. What are you going to | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
spend this stylish, intelligent couple's money on, then? | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
Well, we did see something at the very end, | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
which we deliberated about. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
-Oh. -And you never know. They might be bought. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:43 | |
Hmm, well, it sounds like Thomas has a good plan for you guys. | 0:24:43 | 0:24:46 | |
So while he's off buying the bonus buy, | 0:24:46 | 0:24:48 | |
let's go and find out what the Blue team bought. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
The Blues made a friend out of the Chinese Dog of Fo, | 0:24:52 | 0:24:57 | |
are hoping to avoid being left out in the cold with | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
the pair of onyx-based cast metal polar bear figures, | 0:25:00 | 0:25:05 | |
and went the whole hog with a pair of | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
comical pig cookie jars by HJ Wood. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:12 | |
Karen and Gemma, you survived your buy. Did you have a great time? | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
-Oh, it was brilliant, yeah. -Ah, that's so lovely to hear. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:18 | |
-And what did you buy? -Pair of pigs. -Pigs. -A pair of polar bears. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:22 | |
-A pair of... No, no. -And a dog. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:26 | |
-I know. -You've created a zoo. I thought it was Ian that had a zoo. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
Oh, my goodness, that's bonkers. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:31 | |
And which is your favourite animal, then, I guess? | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
-Oh, it's definitely the pigs for me. -And me. -The pigs? Unanimous. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:37 | |
You love pigs. That's so bonkers. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:38 | |
But which item, which animal is going to bring the biggest profit? | 0:25:38 | 0:25:42 | |
-I'm going to say the pigs again. -Are you? | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
-I think it might be the polar bears. -Yeah, absolutely. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
-Cos it was our expert that chose them, really. -Thank you. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
-Oh, my goodness. -Actually, yeah. -So, what did you spend in total? | 0:25:50 | 0:25:54 | |
-£108. -£108, which leaves 192. -Yeah. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:59 | |
If I could please take that back from you. Oh, my goodness, | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
I know where that's going. It's going straight over | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
-to the delightful Charles Hanson. -Thank you very much. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
-Thank you, boss. -Thank you. What on earth are you going to spend it on? | 0:26:06 | 0:26:09 | |
Has it gone very...is it very "animalia"? | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
I want to go more figurative, OK, | 0:26:11 | 0:26:12 | |
and just buy two things rather than four. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
Oh, my goodness. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:16 | |
Well, Charles is off with your leftover lolly | 0:26:16 | 0:26:19 | |
and we're off to the auction. | 0:26:19 | 0:26:21 | |
Well, here I am in Northwich Auctions in mid-Cheshire, | 0:26:35 | 0:26:38 | |
with the lovely auctioneer Peter Critchley. Good afternoon, | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
-Peter. How are you? -Hello. Nice to see you. Fine, thank you. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
Let's start with Ian and Gemma. Ian's choice was this lovely | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
Scandinavian amber glass decanter. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
Well, it's a nice item - Scandinavian, hand-blown. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
We're a little bit unsure about the stopper, | 0:26:50 | 0:26:52 | |
whether it was the original one, but it's a nice thing that's got | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
-a polished pontil on it and we reckon it should do £30-50. -£30-50? | 0:26:55 | 0:27:00 | |
-Well, £40 paid. 30-50's OK. -Yeah. -I think it could do all right. | 0:27:00 | 0:27:04 | |
-I think we might be OK. -OK. So, this is an item for the dining table. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
Let's move on to the dining chairs behind us. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
We have a lovely Ercol golden-dawn-style stick-back chair. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:13 | |
-In fact, we have a pair of them. -We have a pair of golden dawn carvers. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:16 | |
They are quite popular, especially the lighter colours. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
Darker colours are difficult to sell at the moment | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
but the lighter colours are good things. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:23 | |
We've estimated them £60-80 and they may even do better than that. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:26 | |
-Well, 60-80 is a bit conservative. 110 paid. -Oh, these... | 0:27:26 | 0:27:30 | |
-A little bit "yikes". -They may make the three figures, they may not. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:33 | |
They stand a chance, though. They stand a chance. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:35 | |
And when we say Ercol golden dawn, Ercol's the designer | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
but golden dawn is very much the colour of the wood, is that right? | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
-The colour of the stain. -This is likely to be beech or elm, perhaps? | 0:27:40 | 0:27:43 | |
It's probably elm seat and beech back. | 0:27:43 | 0:27:46 | |
-Well, I hope it's popular in the saleroom. -So do I. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:48 | |
And then we move on to the incredibly tactile third lot. | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
I think it's absolutely gorgeous. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:53 | |
A hallmarked silver snuffbox and very chic, don't you think? | 0:27:53 | 0:27:56 | |
It is a smart piece. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:57 | |
It's got a name engraved in the top, which we'd rather it hadn't | 0:27:57 | 0:28:01 | |
but it's a good leather-maker from Piccadilly and | 0:28:01 | 0:28:03 | |
it's a spring-top, which is a little more bit unusual for a snuffbox | 0:28:03 | 0:28:07 | |
so we do quite like that. We've estimated about £60-80. | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
Well, £95 was paid, so we're not so far away. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:13 | |
Not that far away. Whether we quite make it to the top, | 0:28:13 | 0:28:16 | |
I don't really know. We'll have to see on the day. | 0:28:16 | 0:28:18 | |
OK, so are you suggesting that the Red team might need their bonus buy? | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
-I think they may, I think they may. -Well, who knows? | 0:28:21 | 0:28:24 | |
According to Peter, the Red team might need their bonus buy. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:27 | |
So let's go find out what it is. | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
-Ian and Gemma, lovely to see you again. -Thank you. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:32 | |
Tell me, how much fun did you have with Thomas? | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
It was great. He's an expert, yeah. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:36 | |
-Are you desperate to see what he bought? -I'd like to see. -Yeah? | 0:28:36 | 0:28:38 | |
-Show us. -You'd like to see? So here we are, | 0:28:38 | 0:28:41 | |
I bought you a little Easter egg. | 0:28:41 | 0:28:44 | |
Papier-mache, 1920s, but what's better, it's a chick in a top hat. | 0:28:44 | 0:28:49 | |
And remember we did see something with a top hat on and inside... | 0:28:49 | 0:28:53 | |
-Oh, excellent. -Oh... -A pair of chicks. | 0:28:53 | 0:28:57 | |
So there they are, these little silver-plated numbers. | 0:28:57 | 0:29:00 | |
And they're a pair of peppers. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:01 | |
-How much did you spend? -£52 on all of this. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:04 | |
Cos these were on one stall and this I found on another stall. | 0:29:04 | 0:29:08 | |
-Very appropriate. -Yes, cos chickens is a theme in your lives. | 0:29:08 | 0:29:10 | |
-Theme at school, yeah. -Are they not just gorgeous? | 0:29:10 | 0:29:12 | |
-Beautiful. -Absolutely gorgeous. -I'd like to buy those myself. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:15 | |
-I like the presentation part, as well. -This was on another stall. | 0:29:15 | 0:29:19 | |
So I had to buy the silver chickens on one stall | 0:29:19 | 0:29:21 | |
and then I was walking round and I thought, "Do you know what? | 0:29:21 | 0:29:24 | |
"They've got to buy them together." An egg with the twins in there. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:27 | |
-Now, Gemma, are you sold on these? -I love them. | 0:29:27 | 0:29:29 | |
-I think they're lovely, yeah. -Ian? | 0:29:29 | 0:29:31 | |
I think we'll definitely go with them. | 0:29:31 | 0:29:33 | |
Oh, well. Definitely's a strong word | 0:29:33 | 0:29:35 | |
because we're yet to see how you get on in the auction. | 0:29:35 | 0:29:37 | |
-So don't decide just now. -OK. | 0:29:37 | 0:29:39 | |
We'll find out how these guys get on in the auction. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:41 | |
But just now, for you at home, it's straight to the auctioneer. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:45 | |
OK, I'm going to reveal to you this papier-mache egg, | 0:29:45 | 0:29:49 | |
which is jolly good fun. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:50 | |
And inside it houses, totally unrelated, but equally sweet, | 0:29:50 | 0:29:53 | |
little silver-plated pepperettes in the form of chicks. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:57 | |
-What do you think? -I think they are charming. | 0:29:57 | 0:29:59 | |
The hats lift off, they're very, very nice. | 0:29:59 | 0:30:01 | |
It's a pity they're not silver but they're well-made items. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:04 | |
No great age to them but they're very well made. | 0:30:04 | 0:30:06 | |
The egg is perhaps another matter, | 0:30:06 | 0:30:08 | |
-as a container. -SHE LAUGHS | 0:30:08 | 0:30:10 | |
But the pepperettes are rather sweet. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:12 | |
We've estimated them at £30-50. | 0:30:12 | 0:30:14 | |
Thomas just loved the look of the chick on the papier-mache | 0:30:14 | 0:30:18 | |
also wearing a top hat and he paid £52 for the chick papier-mache | 0:30:18 | 0:30:23 | |
-egg and the chick pepperettes. -They stand a chance. | 0:30:23 | 0:30:25 | |
-They have to stand a chance. -I think they're absolutely fab. | 0:30:25 | 0:30:28 | |
Peter, now that we've covered all the Red lots, | 0:30:28 | 0:30:30 | |
let's see what the Blue team went for. It's a bit of a zoo. | 0:30:30 | 0:30:33 | |
It is, isn't it? Certainly is. | 0:30:33 | 0:30:34 | |
And we start off with this gorgeous turquoise-glazed Fo dog. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:38 | |
What are your thoughts, being on its own as it is? | 0:30:38 | 0:30:40 | |
I think, obviously they're always made as a pair, and shown as a pair. | 0:30:40 | 0:30:43 | |
This is the male one, with its foot on the ball, | 0:30:43 | 0:30:45 | |
-rather that...the female one has her paw on a cub. -Mmm-hmm. -We like it. | 0:30:45 | 0:30:48 | |
It's good quality but there's no great age to it. | 0:30:48 | 0:30:51 | |
-So we've estimated it £40-60. -Well, £38 paid. | 0:30:51 | 0:30:54 | |
I think that stands a good chance. It's a well-made piece. | 0:30:54 | 0:30:57 | |
Then the ladies went on to go for these lovely cold-painted | 0:30:57 | 0:31:01 | |
polar bear bookends. What are your thoughts on the species? | 0:31:01 | 0:31:04 | |
I think...I think it's a bear, I think that's quite clear, | 0:31:04 | 0:31:06 | |
but I don't think it's a polar bear. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:08 | |
I think it's a brown bear and somebody has painted it white. | 0:31:08 | 0:31:11 | |
-And what about the bases? -The base is a bit soft, probably alabaster. | 0:31:11 | 0:31:16 | |
But the actual casting is very nice. | 0:31:16 | 0:31:18 | |
Cos if you're buying cold-painted bronze, | 0:31:18 | 0:31:20 | |
you either want a fabulous Art Deco lady or you want a bear. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:24 | |
If I'm buying a cold-painted figure, I think they're perfect, animal. | 0:31:24 | 0:31:27 | |
But bookends? How popular are bookends in your saleroom? | 0:31:27 | 0:31:29 | |
Not massively. Not massively, I have to say. | 0:31:29 | 0:31:32 | |
Books themselves are not very popular any more with the internet. | 0:31:32 | 0:31:35 | |
That's the thing, hmm. So what's your estimate on those? | 0:31:35 | 0:31:37 | |
-I estimated 60-80 on those. -60-80? | 0:31:37 | 0:31:39 | |
-Fantastic. They only paid £30. -Well, I think they've done well. | 0:31:39 | 0:31:42 | |
-How good is that? -They won't lose money on those, definitely. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:45 | |
Now, last lot of the three are these fabulous cookie jars, Staffordshire. | 0:31:45 | 0:31:51 | |
-And least, I would say. -SHE LAUGHS | 0:31:51 | 0:31:53 | |
Yes, last and least. I mean, they are cookie jars. | 0:31:53 | 0:31:55 | |
They're made in Staffordshire by one of the lower-end potteries. | 0:31:55 | 0:31:58 | |
They're quite amusing. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:00 | |
I'd put £30-50 on them and they probably will make that | 0:32:00 | 0:32:03 | |
but there's no great style or quality about them whatsoever. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:05 | |
-They're a bit of fun. -They are such good fun. | 0:32:05 | 0:32:08 | |
And Charles loves ceramics, so he's probably said, | 0:32:08 | 0:32:10 | |
"Go for a good bit of Staffordshire. | 0:32:10 | 0:32:12 | |
"They're a pair, unlike our dog." | 0:32:12 | 0:32:14 | |
They could get their money back on that. | 0:32:14 | 0:32:16 | |
Well, your estimates against what Charles paid are very healthy. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:19 | |
-Excellent. -Perhaps they won't need their bonus buy so much | 0:32:19 | 0:32:21 | |
but should they wish to choose it, let's find out what it is... | 0:32:21 | 0:32:25 | |
Karen, Gemma, Charles. A bunch of zookeepers, | 0:32:25 | 0:32:28 | |
all those animals that you bought. You're wild. You're absolutely wild. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:31 | |
But they didn't cost you very much money. | 0:32:31 | 0:32:33 | |
-In total, how much did you spend? -£108. -£108, it's nothing. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:36 | |
So it's left Charles with £192. Now, Charles, tell us. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:40 | |
-What did you spend that on? -I really searched hard. Look at that. -Oh... | 0:32:40 | 0:32:45 | |
-I love it. -Girls, what do you think? -Yeah, that's beautiful. | 0:32:45 | 0:32:48 | |
-Really. -We did say that we like pretty things, didn't we? -Yeah. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:51 | |
-Yeah, well... -And we didn't quite get that far. | 0:32:51 | 0:32:53 | |
We...we were very animalia-strewn. And I felt, "Look, handsome, | 0:32:53 | 0:32:56 | |
"put a bit of glitz and glamour back into my ladies." | 0:32:56 | 0:32:59 | |
So it's a very nice bonbon basket. | 0:32:59 | 0:33:02 | |
Cast in a near-classical, almost sort of a Coco-style. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:04 | |
And it is sterling silver, marked sterling, | 0:33:04 | 0:33:07 | |
so it could be American or European, with a lovely reeded handle. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:11 | |
-It is beautiful. -You've spent a lot on this, haven't you, Charles? -Well, | 0:33:11 | 0:33:14 | |
you know what, sometimes the good things come to them who wait, | 0:33:14 | 0:33:18 | |
and it took me a while to find. | 0:33:18 | 0:33:19 | |
-What do you think, ladies? -Has to be expensive. | 0:33:19 | 0:33:21 | |
-Yeah. It cost me £40. -No? -Yes. Yes, £40. -How good is that? | 0:33:21 | 0:33:25 | |
-Yeah. -Excellent. | 0:33:25 | 0:33:26 | |
So tell us what you think about it, Karen. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:28 | |
You've got it in your hand, how does it feel? | 0:33:28 | 0:33:31 | |
It's quite...it's heavier than it looks, actually, | 0:33:31 | 0:33:33 | |
and it's nice and shiny. And I love the little flowers there. | 0:33:33 | 0:33:36 | |
Well, ladies, this could deliver you to the sweet taste of success. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:40 | |
But as you know, you do not need to make any decisions now. | 0:33:40 | 0:33:42 | |
Viewers at home, let's go find out what our lovely auctioneer thinks | 0:33:42 | 0:33:45 | |
of Charles' beautiful basket for bonbons. | 0:33:45 | 0:33:50 | |
-Peter, tell me your thoughts. -It's sterling silver. | 0:33:50 | 0:33:54 | |
You've got a little bit of Art Nouveau in it | 0:33:54 | 0:33:57 | |
but it's quite a useful thing as a little bonbon dish. | 0:33:57 | 0:33:59 | |
It's not quite straight, but near enough. | 0:33:59 | 0:34:02 | |
It think it'll sell. It would do better | 0:34:02 | 0:34:04 | |
-if it was English hallmarked silver. £40-60, this one. -OK. | 0:34:04 | 0:34:07 | |
-40-60 against £40 paid is going to be all right. -Absolutely. | 0:34:07 | 0:34:11 | |
-Now, Peter, are you holding the auction, today? -I am. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:14 | |
Oh, I'm excited. I heard you're a wild one on the rostrum. | 0:34:14 | 0:34:16 | |
-Erm...yes. -THEY LAUGH | 0:34:16 | 0:34:19 | |
Well, hold your horses, Peter's about to take the auction and let's wish our teams best of luck. | 0:34:19 | 0:34:23 | |

-Here we are at the auction. Are you excited? -Yeah. | 0:34:31 | 0:34:33 | |
-Want to make some money. -Is this your first ever auction? -Yeah. | 0:34:33 | 0:34:37 | |
-We've done a chicken auction before. -Oh, you have not. That is too good. | 0:34:37 | 0:34:41 | |
Now, first lot coming up - hand-blown Scandinavian amber | 0:34:41 | 0:34:44 | |
and clear glass decanter. Let's see how it goes. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:47 | |
Hand-blown Scandinavian amber and clear glass wine decanter. | 0:34:47 | 0:34:50 | |

That's a...it's minus 25. Minus 25. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:17 | |
He's item number two - our golden dawn Ercol carver chairs. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:20 | |
Let's see how they get on. | 0:35:20 | 0:35:21 | |
A pair of vintage Ercol golden dawn stick-back carver dining chairs, | 0:35:21 | 0:35:25 | |
now, in lovely condition. | 0:35:25 | 0:35:26 | |
Commission interests start the bidding with me at £40, only. | 0:35:26 | 0:35:30 | |
-£40 a pair, looking for 45. -Go on. Give me some more. | 0:35:30 | 0:35:34 | |
Come on, internet. | 0:35:34 | 0:35:36 | |
Must be worth than that. It's only £20 a chair. | 0:35:36 | 0:35:38 | |
You can buy them new, still, at round about £700 each. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:42 | |
-There he is. -He's trying to sell them. | 0:35:42 | 0:35:45 | |
-To be fair, he is going for it. -He's doing his best. | 0:35:45 | 0:35:47 | |
Surely 45 somewhere. £40, on commission and selling. £40 only. | 0:35:47 | 0:35:52 | |
-No! -They're in for a heat. They're in for a heat. OK, so £40. | 0:35:52 | 0:35:57 | |
That's minus 70 so you're minus 95 just now. | 0:35:57 | 0:36:00 | |
Don't you worry, you've got this gorgeous snuffbox. | 0:36:00 | 0:36:03 | |
It's a nice little snuffbox. | 0:36:03 | 0:36:04 | |
It's very tactile, gilt interior and the squeeze-sprung lid. | 0:36:04 | 0:36:08 | |

and selling for £45. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:32 | |
-SHE GROANS How much was it? -45. -We spent 90. | 0:36:32 | 0:36:35 | |
Maybe we should come to auctions more often. | 0:36:35 | 0:36:37 | |
No, you spent 95, so that's a loss overall...145. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:42 | |
That's a three-figure loss. It's never good. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:45 | |
But guess what? You've got those gorgeous pepperettes. | 0:36:45 | 0:36:48 | |
-You've got to go with it, don't you? -Definitely. -Definitely. For sure. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:51 | |

They're very, very sweet. I've got a couple of commissions. | 0:37:02 | 0:37:04 | |
They're not enormous, the commissions. | 0:37:04 | 0:37:06 | |
Start the bidding with me at £15. | 0:37:06 | 0:37:09 | |
Oh, £15. He's such a tease. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:11 | |

-OK. -35. We want some more. -£35 on the chicks and the egg. | 0:37:16 | 0:37:19 | |

£35 it is. Looking for 40. £35 with the gentleman in the middle. | 0:37:21 | 0:37:26 | |
Aw... Sold for 35. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:29 | |
That's a loss of 17. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:30 | |
All right, all right. | 0:37:30 | 0:37:32 | |
So overall that's a loss | 0:37:32 | 0:37:33 | |
-of 162. Oh... -Oh, that's sore, isn't it? | 0:37:33 | 0:37:36 | |
-But do you know what? Have you ever seen Bargain Hunt before? -Yes. | 0:37:36 | 0:37:39 | |
-That could be a winning score. So keep it shut. -OK. | 0:37:39 | 0:37:43 | |
Because you never know how that Blue team have done. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:45 | |
-So let's go see how they get on. -Lovely. | 0:37:45 | 0:37:47 | |
-Oh, thank you. -Oh, my goodness. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:49 | |
Oh, it's OK. What can you do? What can you do? | 0:37:49 | 0:37:51 | |
Thank you kindly, sir. | 0:37:55 | 0:37:57 | |

-This is your first auction, right? -Yes. -Yeah. -I've been to a few | 0:38:08 | 0:38:13 | |
but you still have that feeling of nerves and it's great. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:16 | |

-Yeah, we did. -Oh, my goodness, | 0:42:18 | 0:42:19 | |
it was a Welsh extravaganza and I don't know | 0:42:19 | 0:42:23 | |

Our Blue team won, but Reds, let's go through it. | 0:42:36 | 0:42:38 | |
It was a loss on everything and overall, it was £162, | 0:42:38 | 0:42:44 | |
which means that with a loss of just £28, but still a loss, | 0:42:44 | 0:42:50 | |
Gemma and Karen have come out in front. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:53 | |
