Did you know that here in Staffordshire | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
there are more miles of canal than in any other county in England? | 0:00:06 | 0:00:12 | |
So our teams today | 0:00:12 | 0:00:13 | |
are literally going to be barging round the stalls. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
Let's go bargain hunting, yeah! | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
Today we're heading towards the Stafford Antique & Collectables Fair | 0:00:43 | 0:00:48 | |
with each of our teams armed with £300 | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
and an hour to shop for three objects, | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
but will they sail off into the sunset | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |
or will they meet a watery end over at the auction? | 0:00:55 | 0:00:59 | |
Let's check out how they do. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Thomas has double trouble with the Reds. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
-No idea. -I think I'm being closed out. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
Closed out. I can see this happening. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
The Blues have hit their funny bones. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
You said you wanted quirky. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
I did want quirky but what would you do with him? | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
But will it be all smiles at auction? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
Let's meet today's teams. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
Well, we've got a gorgeous group of sheilas here on the show today, | 0:01:28 | 0:01:33 | |
all of whom have a link with down under. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
For the Reds, we have got Sandra and Susan | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
and for the Blues we have Christina and Rachel. Hello, everyone. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
-G'day, Tim. -G'day, Tim. -Oh, g'day. That's very nice. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
Now, Sandra, you have come a long way to join us today. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
I have, Tim. I've come all this way just to see you. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
I have to say that you don't sound terribly Australian. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
-I've been there 27 years. -Have you? -I have. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
-And what's your town? -Perth. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
-I live in Freemantle. -Is it lovely over there on the West? | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
It is, it's lovely. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:03 | |
-Good weather all year round. -Yeah. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
And you're what they call a sporty girl, aren't you? | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
I am, I play tennis. I am the Midweek Ladies Captain | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
at the local club. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:13 | |
Stand to attention. And you play doubles or singles? | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
-Both, mainly doubles. -Mainly doubles. -With the Midweek Ladies. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
And do you ever let the men in at all or is it all girls? | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
-Oh, all girls on a Tuesday. Oh, yes. No men allowed on Tuesdays. -OK. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
That must be the day to visit then. Now, you are identical twins. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
Was it terribly tough on you going to Australia like that? | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
Not really, because Susan came as well. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
-Did you really? -Yes. -But you came back? -I did. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
Like full-time back? | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
I keep going back to visit | 0:02:39 | 0:02:40 | |
cos I've still got my daughters out there | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
so I go back for three months every year. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
Now, Susan, you've also seen a fair bit of the world, haven't you? | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
I have, yes. I've lived in Australia, New Zealand, | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
Philippines, Borneo and Malaysia. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
-Which is exciting, isn't it? -It's really exciting. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
So what sort of things are you gorgeous twins going to buy? | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
Are you going to agree on everything? | 0:02:59 | 0:03:00 | |
BOTH: No! | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
Here we go. Lovely. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
We're looking forward to it immensely | 0:03:04 | 0:03:05 | |
and thank you very much for joining us | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
all the way from Australia. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:08 | |
-Now, Christina, you are also from Australia. -Yes, I am. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
And you swapped barbies and all that glorious countryside | 0:03:12 | 0:03:17 | |
and temperature and whatnot for which town? | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
-Birmingham. -Oh, lovely. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:03:21 | 0:03:22 | |
And why did you come then, darling? Did your husband drag you or what? | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
-I do have a French husband. -A French husband? | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
Yeah. So he's still got some family in Paris and around | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
and originally we were meant to settle there | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
but I can't speak French. I tried and I just can't. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
Yeah, best to go to Birmingham in those circumstances. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
Yeah, I learned that language pretty quickly. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
You're pretty safe from the French in Birmingham. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:44 | |
Not so many French there. You also have a passion for music. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
Tell us about that. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:48 | |
Yeah, ever since I was little I've always had many instruments | 0:03:48 | 0:03:51 | |
in the house so I started on drums and percussion, I can sing a bit. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:56 | |
Is that your link with Rachel, then, through the music? | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
It is. Yeah. So Rachel plays synth and sings | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
so we met through our local church, basically, in Birmingham. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
-Yeah, that's how we became friends. -Brilliant. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
So, does this being a musician keep you pretty active, Rach? | 0:04:07 | 0:04:11 | |
It does, yes. It takes up quite a lot of my time. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
I practice once a week and I play most Sundays. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
Now, it says here that you sing | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
so would you like to give us just a little twirl? | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
Just off-the-cuff, give us one of your favourite little numbers. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:27 | |
Yeah, we can give it a go. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:28 | |
Give that the groove. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
# Amazing Grace | 0:04:30 | 0:04:33 | |
# How sweet the sound | 0:04:33 | 0:04:36 | |
# That saved a wretch like me. # | 0:04:36 | 0:04:43 | |
Oh, you're so good! | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
It's so horrible being put on the spot. How could I do that to you? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:51 | |
Well, anyway, well done. Now, you know all about antiques, don't you? | 0:04:51 | 0:04:55 | |
-Bits and bobs. -We do car-boot sales occasionally. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
You will be very, very well qualified on Bargain Hunt. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
-Now, the money moment. Here we go, £300 apiece. -Thank you. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
You know the rules, your experts await | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
and off you go, and very, very, very good luck. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:08 | |
I love Australia. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
Now, let's meet our experts. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Earning his badge for the Red Team | 0:05:15 | 0:05:16 | |
it's Thomas Plant. Dib-dib, dob-dob. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
And hoping to snap up a bargain for the Blues, | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
it's Christina Trevanion. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
It looks like Thomas has got two for the price of one. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
-Twins. -Yes. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
-I have twins. -Do you? | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
Yeah, but mine are fraternal so I have a boy and a girl. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
So it's quite easy to know who's who | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
but today I'm going to have a nightmare. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
So, ladies, £300. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
-Yes. -What's the plan? | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
Well, I would like to go for something | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
kind of quirky and unusual. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
Maybe a Victorian item that nobody knows what it is any more. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
OK. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:51 | |
-What are we into? -Something big, something unusual. -Yes. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:54 | |
Something that really grabs our attention. | 0:05:54 | 0:05:56 | |
Some kind of toy, really old toy. Something like that. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
OK, right, that sounds pretty select. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
Let's go see if we can find them. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
-Let's go. -OK. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
Right, teams, your time starts now. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
They just don't know where to start. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
-Oh, wow. -There's just so much to choose from. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
There's just so many antiques, I feel slightly giddy. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
Thomas will have to work hard to guide those twins. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
-Sandra, what do you think we should get? -I've no idea. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
I feel like I'm being closed out, I'm being closed out. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
I can see this happening. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:33 | |
You've got your hands full with those two. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
What are the Blues after? | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
-Weird and wacky art, hugely in vogue at the moment. -Yeah, I think so. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:42 | |
Yeah, let's go super wacky. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
And creepy-crawly, Christina. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
Oh, yeah. He's away! | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
He's had a coffee. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
What do you think? | 0:06:54 | 0:06:55 | |
So that's a Japanese tin plate toy there, | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
obviously a little beetle bug. | 0:06:58 | 0:06:59 | |
Just let's have a look at his little antennae | 0:06:59 | 0:07:01 | |
because don't know whether those are... | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
No, they look like they're genuine, actually. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
And we've got obviously Made In Japan there. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
I mean, the Japanese were brilliant at making these toys | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
and they are collectable. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
How old do you think he might be? | 0:07:11 | 0:07:12 | |
I'd say he's, what, 1960s, 1970s? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
-VENDOR: -'60s. -Yeah, 1960s. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
-Yeah. -He is quite cute. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:18 | |
-Really cute. -He's great, yeah. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:19 | |
-Yeah. -He's fantastic. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
I like that. What could be your best price on that? | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
You've got £25 on him. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
-£20. -£20. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
I mean, at auction I'd say £15-£20. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
I'd give £15 for him, I think he's wicked. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
-£15. -Hours of fun. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:34 | |
-I'll do £18. -£18. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
£17? | 0:07:37 | 0:07:38 | |
-Oh, go on, then! Go on, then. -Just to get rid of her. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
Oh, my goodness me. Did you want to talk to me about that or...? | 0:07:43 | 0:07:47 | |
-No? -Deal. -Fine! | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
These girls sure know how to negotiate. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:52 | |
-Do you like it? -I think he's lovely. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
-Do you like it? -Yes. -You happy? | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
-Yeah, I think he's really good fun. -Well done. Well done, little bug. | 0:07:56 | 0:08:00 | |
The Blues have bagged a buy with that beautiful bug. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:03 | |
Is Thomas having any luck steering Susan and Sandra | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
in the right direction? | 0:08:06 | 0:08:07 | |
What about this one? | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
Carry on, carry on. Carry on. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
-What about that? -No. -No? | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
-Too modern? -Let's look. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
That's a no, then. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:16 | |
Oh, wait. What have you found, Thomas? | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
A pair of identical chairs for identical twins. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
-Couldn't be better. -Perfect! | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
-Have a rest. -Perfect. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
-Let's just check them over first. -OK. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:29 | |
They are a little bit wobbly but that's not the end of the world. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
They have called them 1920s/1930s inlaid chairs. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:40 | |
Yes, they are inlaid. They're inlaid with vegetable ivory | 0:08:40 | 0:08:44 | |
which is not ivory, it's nuts and then satin wood. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:48 | |
And this is rosewood here | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
and then we've got sort of like a mahogany here | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
inlaid with satin wood. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:55 | |
They're really quite fun, aren't they? | 0:08:55 | 0:08:57 | |
-Yes, I like those. Do you, Sandra? -Yeah, I do and the price is good. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
And they're not 1920s, they're a little bit earlier. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
-Oh, are they? -They're Edwardian. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:03 | |
-Oh, are they? -Yeah, they're turn-of-the-century. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
This is re-covered though, isn't it? | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
They're recovered in green velour which is ghastly, isn't it? | 0:09:07 | 0:09:11 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:09:11 | 0:09:12 | |
And you could really do something with them | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
by changing the upholstery and making them look rather good. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
I think you need to get a bit more off. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:18 | |
-You think we could make a profit on that? -Yes, I do. -You do? OK. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
Pays to know an expert, doesn't it, Sandra? | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
I would say you should get these... | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
I'd have a conversation and say, "Could I have them?" | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
-And if she says £40, I would do it. -£40 for the two? | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
Shh! | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
-See what you can do. -OK. -Right. -I've got real faith in you two. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:37 | |
OK, no problem. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:38 | |
What would be your best price on these pair of chairs here, please? | 0:09:38 | 0:09:42 | |
-The two of them? -For the two of them. -£50. -50? -Oh, dear. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:47 | |
-That's a bit high. -They're a bit wobbly. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:49 | |
Yeah, but they're 100 years old | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
so I think we're all getting a bit wobbly, I know I am. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:54 | |
-I'd go a couple more pounds to £48. -£45 and we'll take them. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
No, I'm going to stick at £48. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
The first time they've been out and they really are nice chairs. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:02 | |
Yes, they are. Really caught our attention. They're beautiful. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
-Thank you very much. -Thank you very much for your help. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
-What are you going to do? -It's £48. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
-Yeah, are you going to buy them? -Yes. -Yes. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
Shake the lady's hand. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:12 | |
-Thank you, very much. -You're welcome. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
-Well done. -Thank you. -First item. -Yes. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
-Let's move on. -Yes, we better. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
No sitting around. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
Hurrah, eh? | 0:10:21 | 0:10:22 | |
This beautiful pair and Thomas have a twin set of chairs. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:26 | |
It only took them 22 minutes. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
Now, the Blues are hunting for something weird | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
but how about something ghoulish? | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
Good day, ladies. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
You have got... Wacky, quirky. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:43 | |
-Wow! -Very thin. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:44 | |
He even has a whistle. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:10:46 | 0:10:47 | |
-He's even is ready to party, as well, isn't he? -Wow. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
-What you think of him? -He's really cool but... | 0:10:49 | 0:10:53 | |
You said you wanted quirky. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
I did want quirky but what would you do with him? | 0:10:55 | 0:10:57 | |
-Scare people. -Scare people in the window. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
-Bring him out at Halloween. -Yeah. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:02 | |
What do you think though? Because it fits the remit, does it not? | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
It does fit the remit but I'm kind of after something | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
where you don't know what it is | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
and I think for us this is quite obviously a skeleton. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
Yeah. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:15 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:11:15 | 0:11:17 | |
Challenging me today, aren't you? I know there's always one. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
Oh, rejected again. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
Oh, chin up, old boy. | 0:11:23 | 0:11:24 | |
Now, are the Reds impressing Thomas with their finds yet? | 0:11:28 | 0:11:31 | |
-Keep looking. -Keep looking. -You're doing well. You're doing well. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
But let's carry on. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
Come on, you lot. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:37 | |
You still have two items each to find. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
What's this? | 0:11:41 | 0:11:42 | |
The Blues are looking puzzled. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
No. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:46 | |
Don't pull it, don't pull it! | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
Press this up here. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
And then it comes out. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:52 | |
A card case. Isn't that lovely? | 0:11:52 | 0:11:54 | |
-Is it like cards like playing cards? -Yeah. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
So it's red lacquer in there with brass bound. | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
Lovely that we've got these wonderful moths and bats | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
and they were symbols of good luck. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:04 | |
-Right. -That's really lovely. £98. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:08 | |
What could you do that for? | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
-£70 it's worth for you. -£70. -£70. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
Can we take a look at some of the cards? | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
-Yeah. -Pull! | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
Oh, the Joker. How appropriate. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
And another Joker! | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
This is a sign. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:26 | |
Let's hope it's a sign of good luck, hey, girls? | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
-What do you think? -Yeah, I really like that. I think it's really nice. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
I like the fact that its use isn't immediately obvious | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
-and that's exactly what you wanted. -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
At auction I would say £50-£70. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:42 | |
I think it's quite fun. Is there anything more...? | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
Could you do £50 on it? Would £50 be a possibility? | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
-£60. -£60. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
-It's £60 minimum. -OK. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:51 | |
-What's your thoughts? -I'm happy with that. -Yeah. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
-What do you think? -Yeah. -Yeah. -£60? -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:57 | |
Good. Thank you very much. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
I think it's a sign, there's a little R on the Joker. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
Rachel. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:04 | |
So your fortune's in the cards, Rachel. Well, hopefully. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
We've bought two things so we've just got one more thing to buy. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
I'm quite aware that if I don't keep them focused | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
we're going to completely run out of time. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
Because although it sounds like we've got quite a lot of time left, | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
it will go in the blink of an eye. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:21 | |
Speaking of time, you are half an hour into the shop, teams. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
How are those twins getting on? | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
So is that solid silver? | 0:13:31 | 0:13:33 | |
-Well, it would be very thin silver. -Is it fairly new? | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
No, this would be more Edwardian. Here's the hallmarks. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
What's the price of this? £25. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
I mean, it's what they're worth, between £20 and £30. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:46 | |
-Look into the mirror. -Look in the mirror. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:47 | |
I think I'm seeing double. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
On reflection, the mirror is not for them. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
And it seems the Blues have lost their way. | 0:13:53 | 0:13:55 | |
I don't think we've been down here, have we? | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
-Ladies, I fear we're drifting. -We are. -Yeah. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
It's about time those Reds secured a second item, | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
don't you think, Thomas? | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
We've bought one item and we've kind of like got 25 minutes left. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:13 | |
-Oh, right, we better get a move on. -We better get a move on. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:17 | |
-I've just seen something, I'm looking at it now. -OK. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
I want to have a look at this ottoman. It's mad, it's unusual. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:24 | |
Look at this. It's regal, it's camp. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:26 | |
-It looks very theatrical, doesn't it? -It is, absolutely. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:30 | |
What is it? There's the ticket. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:32 | |
Here we are, a Victorian upholstered scroll slipper box | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
for putting one's slippers on. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
I think it looks old and faded and tatty. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:41 | |
-Really? -I do, yes. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:42 | |
But that's what the antiques business is about, old things. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
Nothing wrong with being old, faded and tatty, Susan. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
Or is it Sandra, Susan? Oh, dear. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
-Sandra, what do you think? -I think it's brilliant. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
I think it's absolutely brilliant. It's well sprung. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:58 | |
You like the springing to it. | 0:14:58 | 0:14:59 | |
-I like the springing to it, yeah. -You wanted something different. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:02 | |
-Something to complete the set. -And this is different, isn't it? | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
-You said that at the same time, didn't you? -We did. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:07 | |
-We do that quite often. -We do that a lot. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:08 | |
-Finish each other's sentences off as well. -I bet you do. I love that. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:11 | |
-Madam, is this yours? -It is mine, yes. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
Now, you've got £98 on it. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:18 | |
I'm here, I'm almost on my knees. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
I can see, I like it. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
How much? | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
£80. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:25 | |
-Oh! -Oh, dear. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
I really am on my knees now. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:15:29 | 0:15:32 | |
-£70. -Is that your best price? | 0:15:32 | 0:15:35 | |
-Can you go a bit lower than that? -You wouldn't go to £60, would you? | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
£65, in the middle. And that's it. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:39 | |
-In the middle. -What do you think, Sandra? | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
-What do you think? -We all saved a bit of face there. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
-I think that's good. -Do you? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:44 | |
-Do you really like it? -I think that's a fair bargain. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
-Oh, looks like Thomas has bought it already. -I've bought it anyway. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
-He's bought it anyway. -Thank you very much. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:51 | |
-Thank you. -Brilliant. Thank you. -Second item. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
-I think it's marvellous. -I like that, it's different. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
It is different. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
-We need to buy another one then, don't we, Sandra? -OK, right. | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
That's your second item, Reds. Well done. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
But with only 15 minutes left at the shop, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
the Blues are having a change of heart. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
At the beginning we saw a skeleton and at the time I wasn't too sure. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:11 | |
I wanted to have a little look around first to compare | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
but as we've gone round | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
I think I've started to fall in love with him a little bit. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
Yeah. It's just different. Haven't seen anything like that. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
Fallen in love with a skeleton? | 0:16:20 | 0:16:23 | |
He's not my usual type of guy, to be honest. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:25 | |
You know we actually have to buy these things to sell them. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
-Oh, I can't keep him? -No. -OK. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
Do you want to go and see if he's still there? | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
-Yeah, let's go and check that out. -Yeah. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:36 | |
Love is in the air, I can feel it in me bones. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |
Now, is Thomas having any luck getting a third item | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
for Susie and Sandy? | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
This is the most frustrating time. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
We have got loads of money | 0:16:47 | 0:16:49 | |
but we haven't seen anything we really, really want and I am | 0:16:49 | 0:16:52 | |
worried that we could buy something for a lot of money and it bomb | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
at the auction just because we want to spend money | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
and not think about it. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:00 | |
And weighing heavily on Rachel's mind, it's still Mr Skinny Bones. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
Your dream man. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
-Yeah! -Here he is! | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
-Here we go. -Still looking very skeleton-y. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:13 | |
-Yes. -I have to say, he's not old but that's great. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:17 | |
I'm not looking for an older guy. | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
We've got £120 on him. That is a lot of money to spend... | 0:17:21 | 0:17:25 | |
-On a skeleton. -On a plastic... | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
He's a bit bendy, to be honest. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
OK, if we can get it for a good price, | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
if we can get it for about £60 or £70, I think let's go for it. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
If we can't, then we're just going to have to move on. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:36 | |
But we are really, really, really running out of time now. | 0:17:36 | 0:17:39 | |
So let's go and ask. Go, go, go. Deliberating. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
Well, he's really got under Rachel's skin. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:44 | |
Let's see if she can work her charms on the dealer. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
-What's your name? -Gary. -Gary, lovely to meet you, Gary. | 0:17:47 | 0:17:49 | |
-What an attractive team. -I think we should call him Gary. | 0:17:49 | 0:17:52 | |
-Yeah! -He should be Gary. -Yes, Gary the skeleton. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
If you're nice to us we might call him Gary. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
I think really we'd be looking around the £60 mark. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
-Can't do it. -Is there anything better you could do on that? | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
£75. But that is it. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:04 | |
You are gambling on an impulse buyer... | 0:18:04 | 0:18:07 | |
-Who doesn't realise the value. -Who thinks it's a bit of fun. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
Like we do. Who obviously wants a date like you do. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
-Right, what's the decision? -Yeah, let's go for him. -Gary. | 0:18:15 | 0:18:19 | |
Well done, girls. You bagged yourself your third item and a date. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:24 | |
Come on, Reds. There's just five minutes left to shop. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
Where's your third item? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
-I wonder what that is. -Open it and smell it. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
My sense of smell isn't that great. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
It probably would have been cleaned out. How much is it? | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
-I've got it for £120. -£120. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:47 | |
What's your best price on that? | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
Best would be £90. £90 on that. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
-I like that. -It's quite nice, Sandra. -It's quite fun, isn't it? | 0:18:52 | 0:18:55 | |
-It is an interesting tantalus. -It is. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
-£85. -Mahogany box, moulded glass, the stoppers, | 0:18:58 | 0:19:02 | |
the tops are something else, though. They're really good. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:06 | |
Yeah, I like that. I think we should go for it. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
We haven't got a lot of time left really to make a decision, | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
-have we, either? -So what was your best price on that again? | 0:19:12 | 0:19:14 | |
-£90. -£90, you couldn't go any lower than that? | 0:19:14 | 0:19:17 | |
I could do it for about £85. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
I would prefer to see it at £70. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
-Oh, would you? -My honest opinion. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
-How low can you go? -I'll do £80 and that's my best. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:30 | |
-I think it's really good, I like it. -Yeah? -Yeah. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
-It's different. -You want to go for it? | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
-Yeah. -How long has it been going out for? | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
-First time I've put it out. -Fantastic. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:39 | |
That's three first-time items. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
-Oh, good. -£80. -Thank you. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
-That's brilliant. -Thank you. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
Stop clowning around, you lot, because time is up. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
BOX PLAYS POP GOES THE WEASEL | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
Oh! See what I mean? | 0:19:51 | 0:19:54 | |
You girls have exhausted me. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
-Yes, we're exhausted ourselves, to be honest. -You've exhausted me. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:01 | |
And you've exhausted me. Let's remind ourselves what they bought. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:05 | |
The twins couldn't resist a twin set of Edwardian chairs for £48. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:10 | |
They put their feet up on an Art Deco ottoman for £65. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:15 | |
And they poured out £80 on a travelling tantalus | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
complete with bottles. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:21 | |
-Well, that was fun, girls, wasn't it? -It was. -Yes. | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
-Anyway, Tom, was it fun? -It was fun. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
I mean, I thought I could manage twins, but no. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
Anyway, you're both equally gorgeous. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
Just tell me, which is your favourite piece? | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
Mine is the unusual tantalus. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:35 | |
-That is your favourite? -It is, it is. -Do you agree with that, sister? | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
-No, I like the chairs best. -OK, very good. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
Which is going to bring the biggest profit? | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
-The chairs. -Tantalus. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:43 | |
There we go. This is the joy of being a twin. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:46 | |
-How much did you spend, girls? -£193. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
£193 which leaves me with £107. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
£107. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
-There we are. -That's coming from your hot pocket. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
Very good. Right then, Tom. There's a little task for you now. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:01 | |
This is where Thomas Plant shines. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
He's going to go and find your bonus buy. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:06 | |
We've left you a lot of money, Thomas. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:07 | |
I know, I'm going to love it as well. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
OK, on that happy note, why don't we check out what the Blue Team bought? | 0:21:10 | 0:21:15 | |
They crawled off with a tin toy plate ladybird for £17. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:20 | |
They gambled £60 on a Chinese red lacquered playing card case. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
They loved every bone in his body, | 0:21:29 | 0:21:31 | |
a skeleton they call Gary stole their hearts for a mere £70. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:36 | |
OK, Rach, Christina, Christina, was that fun or what? | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
-It was, it was brilliant fun. -How lovely. So, da business. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
Which is your favourite piece, Rach? | 0:21:42 | 0:21:43 | |
-My favourite piece has to be the skeleton, yeah. -Why? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
Well, he's just so different, isn't he? | 0:21:46 | 0:21:49 | |
I mean, who thinks to go to an antiques fair | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
and come away with a life-size skeleton? | 0:21:51 | 0:21:52 | |
Exactly, sounds absolutely deadly to me. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:21:54 | 0:21:55 | |
-OK, Christina. What is your favourite piece? -The lady beetle. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
The lady beetle. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:00 | |
Yeah, because it's really cute. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
It's exactly what we wanted and, yeah. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:03 | |
That's your favourite-favourite. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:05 | |
-Is it going to bring in the biggest profit? -I think it will, actually. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
-Do you reckon? -Yeah, I think so. -OK. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:10 | |
And you agree with that, Rach, do you? | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
I think it's fair to say that the skeleton probably | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
might not fetch as much profit. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
-So we'll say the lady beetle. -We'll say the lady beetle. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:18 | |
-How much did you spend? -We spent £147 today. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
-£147. I have £153 of left over money, please. -That is right. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
-There you go. -Thank you very much. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
£153 go straight over to Christina. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:27 | |
There we go, darling. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:28 | |
You love this bit, don't you? It's one of your favourite bits. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
It is. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:32 | |
Meanwhile, we're heading off to the Jewellery Quarter in Birmingham. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
Gosh, how spangly. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter is Britain's largest volume | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
producer of gold jewellery, which is exported all over the world. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
It's also home to the world's largest assay office | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
which hallmarks around 12 million items a year. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
I am at the Museum Of The Jewellery Quarter | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
which occupies the site of the former jewellers | 0:22:58 | 0:23:03 | |
Smith & Pepper who traded from this address from their foundation | 0:23:03 | 0:23:08 | |
in 1899 right up until the time that they closed in 1981. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:14 | |
Let's have a butcher's, shall we? | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
I'm here to meet the museum curator Oliver Buckley. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
Ah, Oliver. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
Ah, hello, Tim. Welcome to the Museum Of The Jewellery Quarter. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
I can hardly believe this is a museum. How did it all come about? | 0:23:31 | 0:23:35 | |
So Smith & Pepper were a man called Charles Smith | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
and his uncle Edwin Pepper who were the founding partners that | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
came together to form a new business. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
In 1899, Charles Smith took over as the managing director himself | 0:23:45 | 0:23:49 | |
and three of his own children went into the business making | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
jewellery here until they retired, basically, in the 1980s. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
In fact, it was Charles Smith's daughter, Olive, | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
known to the staff as Miss Olive, | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
who ran this little office part of the factory. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
-And they clearly didn't like change much. -No, absolutely. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
In fact, much of the inside of the museum as it is now | 0:24:06 | 0:24:10 | |
is very much stuck in the 1920s, 1930s in terms of its decor. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:15 | |
We found actually 70,000 objects here that we could look at | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
and record, telling about history of the whole 80 to 100 years | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
of jewellery making tradition. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
Fascinating, isn't it? | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
We've got an up-to-date piece of office equipment here | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
which seems to be made out of two-by-four. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:32 | |
-It looks like a dumbwaiter, is it? -It is, yes. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
And what would go in here is those orders | 0:24:35 | 0:24:36 | |
for what the factory needed to make. They'd put those in there | 0:24:36 | 0:24:40 | |
and her brother Tom down below, he would start making those things | 0:24:40 | 0:24:43 | |
and when they were all finished, all polished up, | 0:24:43 | 0:24:45 | |
they'd put them in little trays and up they would come | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
ready for the girls in the office to dispatch in boxes and send out. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:51 | |
-So this is a vital piece of kit. -Very much so. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:54 | |
We've even got original jam pots from the factory | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
where they would make a piece of toast | 0:24:56 | 0:24:58 | |
and Miss Olive would send it down to Mr Tom down below, her brother, | 0:24:58 | 0:25:01 | |
and he could have a little piece of toast or a cup of tea. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
How marvellous. Anyway, it all happened downstairs. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
-Shall we have a look? -Let's have a look, yes. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
Oh, look. The downstairs bit of our dumbwaiter. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
I feel the toast coming down. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:19 | |
That's absolutely right because here we are in Mr Tom's work space | 0:25:19 | 0:25:23 | |
and he is the factory manager. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:25 | |
So his sister is up above in the office and he is waiting here. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:28 | |
He comes in very early, 6.00 in the morning | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
ready for his morning cup of tea. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
And we've got laid out here the basic components of a bracelet. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:37 | |
This is one of Smith & Pepper's real signature pieces. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:40 | |
These bamboo bangles were very, very fashionable | 0:25:40 | 0:25:43 | |
around the turn-of-the-century and into the 1920s | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
because, of course, Britain had an empire | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
and people were going to places like China, | 0:25:48 | 0:25:51 | |
and the designs of things like bamboo | 0:25:51 | 0:25:53 | |
were influencing the fashions in jewellery. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
What about this serpent necklace and bangle? | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
We see quite a few of those in the fairs. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:01 | |
Yes, well, actually, this is not so much a bangle as an armlet. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:05 | |
It's got a spring inside it so it would cling to a lady's arm | 0:26:05 | 0:26:09 | |
and these became very, very fashionable | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
around the time of the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamen in 1922. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:16 | |
They came back into fashion in the 1960s when Elizabeth Taylor | 0:26:16 | 0:26:20 | |
was in a film with Richard Burton, | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
a famous film called Cleopatra. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
And throughout the film | 0:26:24 | 0:26:25 | |
she wears a snake armlet. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:27 | |
So everyone wanted to have one of these. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
Smith & Pepper had the tools and just put them | 0:26:29 | 0:26:32 | |
straight back into production. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:33 | |
Before ultimately the serpent bit Elizabeth Taylor | 0:26:33 | 0:26:37 | |
and Cleopatra was no more. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
Indeed, that's right. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:41 | |
Well, absolutely fascinating. | 0:26:41 | 0:26:43 | |
I can't thank you enough, Oliver, for giving us | 0:26:43 | 0:26:46 | |
an insight into your brilliant museum. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
The big question now is, of course, are our teams over at the auction | 0:26:48 | 0:26:52 | |
going to slither away and make a good profit? | 0:26:52 | 0:26:56 | |
Well, we've trotted along to Richard Winterton Auctioneers | 0:27:05 | 0:27:08 | |
in Lichfield to be with the great man himself, Richard Winterton. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:12 | |
-And welcome to you. -Thank you very much. Lovely to be back. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:15 | |
Now, these Reds have gone slightly off-piste | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
and they've bought two inlaid chairs which they call parlour chairs | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
but you could put them wherever you like, really, couldn't you? | 0:27:21 | 0:27:24 | |
-You could. But I think it is part of a bigger suite, isn't it? -It is. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
With a lady's chair, gent's chair, do you think | 0:27:27 | 0:27:29 | |
-would have gone with it as well? -Probably. -Yeah, all sorts. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
But it's beautifully inlaid and beautifully made and ready to go. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:35 | |
What's your best estimate? | 0:27:35 | 0:27:36 | |
-We have gone £30-£40. -Oh, steady! | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
£15 each? For all that inlay and stuff? | 0:27:39 | 0:27:44 | |
I know, but there's only so much you can do with it. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |
-£48 they paid. -See? We're not far off. -Not far off. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
But it's very, very vital to get up those last few pounds, | 0:27:49 | 0:27:53 | |
as you well know. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:54 | |
Next up we have a small ottoman and it certainly is a small one, | 0:27:54 | 0:27:59 | |
-not that size should matter, you understand. -Of course, Tim. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:02 | |
But there is a bit of a move for at the end of the bed ottomans | 0:28:02 | 0:28:07 | |
and the like, so it's had a bit of a comeback in the last year or so | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
so we've gone £40-£60. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:11 | |
Have you? £40-£60. Very good. £65 they paid. | 0:28:11 | 0:28:14 | |
-Now, the last object, I have a funny feeling came from a yacht. -OK. | 0:28:14 | 0:28:18 | |
I'm getting a yacht vibration | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
-because it is made out of solid mahogany. -OK. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:23 | |
It has got that kind of chunky yacht fitting look to it. | 0:28:23 | 0:28:27 | |
It's a bit of an industrial box the way it looks but | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
I can see where you're coming from for making it secure and the likes, | 0:28:30 | 0:28:34 | |
and the bottles are quite attractive in there as well. | 0:28:34 | 0:28:36 | |
They're fairly crude bottles but I like the tops, though. | 0:28:36 | 0:28:39 | |
Of course these bottles are odd, aren't they? | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
Because it says Haywards on the side of the bottle, | 0:28:41 | 0:28:44 | |
like cast into the glass. And do you know anything about Haywards? | 0:28:44 | 0:28:48 | |
-I don't. -Nor do I. | 0:28:48 | 0:28:49 | |
But they might have been purveyors of hooch in the '30s, mightn't they? | 0:28:49 | 0:28:53 | |
Could well be. So my £40-£50 is probably too low now. | 0:28:53 | 0:28:56 | |
Well, I don't know because boat fittings, if you can sow | 0:28:56 | 0:28:59 | |
the seed about a boat fitting, it does help the sale, doesn't it? | 0:28:59 | 0:29:01 | |
-Yeah, it does. -Anyway, £80 paid. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:04 | |
And on the face of it, if the drinks box doesn't do very well | 0:29:04 | 0:29:07 | |
and the ottoman doesn't do very well, they're going to need | 0:29:07 | 0:29:09 | |
their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it. | 0:29:09 | 0:29:12 | |
Well, Sue, where is Sandra? | 0:29:13 | 0:29:16 | |
Sandra hasn't been very well, actually. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:18 | |
She's in Australia and unfortunately she has been in hospital | 0:29:18 | 0:29:22 | |
but she's recovering now and she's at home, | 0:29:22 | 0:29:25 | |
so, I'm very pleased to say. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:27 | |
Good. She was planning then to fly back for the auction. | 0:29:27 | 0:29:30 | |
Yes, she had a flight booked. | 0:29:30 | 0:29:32 | |
She's absolutely devastated that she can't be here. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:34 | |
-Oh, dear! Well, that is bad luck but she's getting better? -She is. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:38 | |
-Yes. -OK. Now, this is the leftover lolly moment, OK? | 0:29:38 | 0:29:41 | |
So, for Susan and Sandra in Australia, | 0:29:41 | 0:29:45 | |
show us what your bonus buy is, please. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:47 | |
Well, I could have spent it all | 0:29:47 | 0:29:49 | |
but I didn't. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:50 | |
-I bought this. -Oh, wow! | 0:29:50 | 0:29:53 | |
That is unbelievable. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:54 | |
This is a keepsake box from the Second World War. | 0:29:54 | 0:29:58 | |
Oh, that's really special. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:00 | |
So somebody has painted this after VE Day. | 0:30:00 | 0:30:02 | |
Somebody... It's for Mrs Clough, obviously his wife or his mummy, | 0:30:02 | 0:30:08 | |
and he's painted this and he's got it all on there | 0:30:08 | 0:30:11 | |
and it's just a lovely thing to keep in your shed. | 0:30:11 | 0:30:13 | |
-So how much did you spend? -It was a grand total of...£16. | 0:30:13 | 0:30:19 | |
-That's unbelievable! -It was £16, yeah. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:22 | |
It really could make a good profit then, couldn't it? | 0:30:22 | 0:30:25 | |
It could double its money, it could. It's what we're after. | 0:30:25 | 0:30:27 | |
-That's your prediction, is it, Tom? -Yeah. -Double your money. | 0:30:27 | 0:30:30 | |
-You don't pick right now. -OK. | 0:30:30 | 0:30:32 | |
You and hopefully Sandra via the internet will be able to make | 0:30:32 | 0:30:37 | |
that decision during the course of the auction, | 0:30:37 | 0:30:39 | |
but right now for the audience at home, let's find out | 0:30:39 | 0:30:42 | |
what the jolly old auctioneer thinks about Tom's box. | 0:30:42 | 0:30:45 | |
-Right, Richard. -OK. | 0:30:46 | 0:30:49 | |
A pretty dull and ordinary shed work box | 0:30:49 | 0:30:52 | |
but it's intriguing, isn't it? | 0:30:52 | 0:30:54 | |
Yeah, it's lovely, isn't it? And poignant. It's just fabulous. | 0:30:54 | 0:30:57 | |
-It's a one-off, isn't it? -Yep. | 0:30:57 | 0:30:59 | |
That Mrs Clough had her name almost professionally painted on that box. | 0:30:59 | 0:31:05 | |
But all the rest of it is done by a child, isn't it? | 0:31:05 | 0:31:07 | |
You've got Popeye here on the end, Fido, another cartoon character | 0:31:07 | 0:31:12 | |
running like stink across the front of the box. I think it's charming. | 0:31:12 | 0:31:16 | |
It is, it's fun. | 0:31:16 | 0:31:17 | |
So, what's a little emotive box like that worth? | 0:31:17 | 0:31:20 | |
We've gone £30-£40. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:21 | |
-Have you really? -Yeah. -£16 paid by Thomas Plant. | 0:31:21 | 0:31:25 | |
OK, got to be a winner. Lovely. | 0:31:25 | 0:31:27 | |
I'll pop that, I think, in pride of place | 0:31:27 | 0:31:30 | |
on the top of our tiny ottoman. | 0:31:30 | 0:31:32 | |
Brilliant. Now, that's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues. | 0:31:32 | 0:31:35 | |
We've got a Japanese tin plate ladybird. | 0:31:35 | 0:31:38 | |
It is what it says on the tin, isn't it? | 0:31:38 | 0:31:41 | |
The top end of toys will fly in a lot of interest | 0:31:41 | 0:31:45 | |
but these would have been turned out in their many thousands. | 0:31:45 | 0:31:48 | |
Yes, that is the problem. | 0:31:48 | 0:31:50 | |
If it needs to be rare from the '50s | 0:31:50 | 0:31:52 | |
if it's going to make any money. | 0:31:52 | 0:31:53 | |
-Yes. -OK. So, what are you saying? | 0:31:53 | 0:31:55 | |
-You're saying £10-£20? -£10-£20. | 0:31:55 | 0:31:57 | |
Well, that might hop along all right. £17 they paid. | 0:31:57 | 0:31:59 | |
-That's about right, isn't it? -Yeah, it is. OK, fine. -Yeah. | 0:31:59 | 0:32:02 | |
Next, we've got the brass mounted lacquer box. | 0:32:02 | 0:32:06 | |
Now, how old is that, Richard? | 0:32:06 | 0:32:08 | |
I would have thought a month or two. | 0:32:08 | 0:32:10 | |
Oh, right. If it is brand-new, it ain't worth much, is it? | 0:32:10 | 0:32:13 | |
No, we've got £20 on it. | 0:32:13 | 0:32:14 | |
OK, well, £60 was paid. | 0:32:14 | 0:32:16 | |
-So that is a bit of a hole. Anyway, moving on. -OK. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:19 | |
Talking of holes. | 0:32:19 | 0:32:20 | |
The next object, | 0:32:20 | 0:32:22 | |
I don't think we've ever sold a medical skeleton before. | 0:32:22 | 0:32:26 | |
-Because that is brilliant, isn't it? -And fun. | 0:32:26 | 0:32:28 | |
It'd be a few hundred pounds, you know, in a medical school. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:31 | |
Must be, mustn't it, because it all will articulate and work properly. | 0:32:31 | 0:32:35 | |
I do think it's a fantastic object for me. | 0:32:35 | 0:32:38 | |
-How much? -£50-£80. -OK. | 0:32:38 | 0:32:41 | |
£70 paid. I still think £70 is dirt cheap because if it doesn't | 0:32:41 | 0:32:45 | |
do very well, they're in deep shtuck and they will need their bonus buy. | 0:32:45 | 0:32:48 | |
So let's go and have a look at it. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:51 | |
-Christina, Rachel, Christina. -Oh, yes! | 0:32:51 | 0:32:54 | |
How lovely to have two Christinas. A brace of Christinas and a Rach. | 0:32:55 | 0:32:59 | |
Now, listen, girls, you spent £147 | 0:32:59 | 0:33:01 | |
and you gave our Christina £153 to buy your bonus buy. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:05 | |
So, Christina, what did you find? | 0:33:05 | 0:33:07 | |
-I'd like you to try and figure out what it is. -Oh. -Oh. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:10 | |
It looks a little bit like... | 0:33:10 | 0:33:12 | |
Oh, so it's... | 0:33:12 | 0:33:13 | |
It doesn't actually open? | 0:33:13 | 0:33:15 | |
It doesn't open. Is it broken? | 0:33:15 | 0:33:16 | |
Is it broken? Has she bought broken... | 0:33:16 | 0:33:20 | |
It does! Oh, my goodness. This is the magic of it, you see? | 0:33:20 | 0:33:23 | |
If you turn the top | 0:33:23 | 0:33:26 | |
it's actually a hip flask. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:28 | |
-Well, well, well. -So I hope that I've fulfilled one of our criteria. | 0:33:28 | 0:33:34 | |
It looks like a cigarette case but it's actually a hip flask | 0:33:34 | 0:33:37 | |
and it's just a bit of fun. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:39 | |
-I spent £28 on it. -Is that all? -Really? -£28? | 0:33:39 | 0:33:43 | |
-That's really good. -£28. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:44 | |
Now, how many of these have you ever seen in your life before? | 0:33:44 | 0:33:47 | |
-That's the first one. -Funnily enough. | 0:33:47 | 0:33:48 | |
-That's what we like. -Yeah. -Funnily enough. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:50 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:33:50 | 0:33:51 | |
You don't pick now but why don't we find out, | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
for the audience at home, what the auctioneer thinks about the flask. | 0:33:53 | 0:33:57 | |
-OK, Richard, have a cigar. -Yes, this is fab. -Yeah. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:03 | |
-You're trying to trick me. -Would I do that, Rich? -You would. | 0:34:03 | 0:34:07 | |
You would. But this is just a fun piece, beautifully made. | 0:34:07 | 0:34:11 | |
It's a great thing. I love this. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:14 | |
A really, really nice object. | 0:34:14 | 0:34:16 | |
That in silver is worth £400, isn't it? | 0:34:16 | 0:34:18 | |
-Yes. -At least. What's it worth, mate, in plate? | 0:34:18 | 0:34:21 | |
We've done £40-£50. | 0:34:21 | 0:34:23 | |
I would get on and get that bought because that is a good object. | 0:34:23 | 0:34:27 | |
OK. Christina, cunning monkey, paid £28 for it. | 0:34:27 | 0:34:30 | |
-That is the right price, isn't it? -Yeah, brilliant. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
Well, let's hope this team go with the hip flask, that's all I can say. | 0:34:33 | 0:34:36 | |
-Are you taking the sale today? -I am indeed. -We are in safe hands. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:40 | |
Also in safe hands is Sandra for the Reds who is joining us | 0:34:43 | 0:34:47 | |

So that takes your score down | 0:37:46 | 0:37:48 | |
-to minus £54. -Oh, minus £50... | 0:37:48 | 0:37:52 | |
Which is not as bad as it might have been. | 0:37:52 | 0:37:54 | |
THEY CHUCKLE | 0:37:54 | 0:37:56 | |
-Anyway, thank you, Sandra. -Thank you very much for including me. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:59 | |

Now, one last thing, Susan. Don't say a word to the Blues, all right? | 0:38:04 | 0:38:07 | |
I won't, no. Promise. My lips are sealed! | 0:38:07 | 0:38:10 | |
Christina, Christina, Rachel. I love that, don't you? | 0:38:15 | 0:38:19 | |
-Now, Christina, do you know how the Reds got on? -No. -Good. | 0:38:19 | 0:38:23 | |
Even though we have an absentee in Australia, | 0:38:23 | 0:38:26 | |
she was able to join us over the internet, which is lovely, | 0:38:26 | 0:38:29 | |
so Sandra did take part, which is lovely. | 0:38:29 | 0:38:32 | |

That is going to bug me, that is. | 0:39:11 | 0:39:13 | |
We move now to the lacquer playing card box. | 0:39:14 | 0:39:18 | |
£20 bid. £25. £30. £35. | 0:39:18 | 0:39:23 | |

You were minus £17 so you're now plus £23. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
How good is that? | 0:40:35 | 0:40:37 | |
So, what are you going to do, then, about the bonus buy? | 0:40:37 | 0:40:40 | |

-Go for it, yes. -OK. | 0:40:43 | 0:40:44 | |
Standby then, here comes the dummy hip flask. And here it comes. | 0:40:44 | 0:40:48 | |
We go to 1385, the novelty hip flask there. | 0:40:48 | 0:40:52 | |
Commission bids on the book, £20 I am bid. | 0:40:52 | 0:40:54 | |
£20 I am bid. £25. £30. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:57 | |
-We've done it. -£35. £40. £40 I am bid. | 0:40:57 | 0:40:59 | |
£40 I am bid. £40. £45. £50. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:03 | |
£50 a bid. £50 with me. £50 I am bid. | 0:41:03 | 0:41:05 | |
Internet, you are out at £50. | 0:41:05 | 0:41:07 | |

-Wow! -£45 profit. | 0:41:21 | 0:41:24 | |
Well, isn't that amazing? Congratulations. | 0:41:24 | 0:41:27 | |
That is so cool. Well done. Well done, Christina. | 0:41:27 | 0:41:30 | |
Now, don't say a word to the Reds. That could be a winning score. | 0:41:30 | 0:41:34 | |
All will be revealed in a moment. Thank you very much. | 0:41:34 | 0:41:36 | |
Well, this is fun, isn't it? | 0:41:42 | 0:41:43 | |
-Now, everybody happy? -Yes. | 0:41:43 | 0:41:46 | |
-Been chatting about the results? -No. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
Well, there's a fair old gap between the teams, I can tell you. | 0:41:48 | 0:41:52 | |
And the team that is running up substantially today | 0:41:52 | 0:41:55 | |
are the Reds. | 0:41:55 | 0:41:57 | |
Oh! | 0:41:57 | 0:41:59 | |
And I think we have already telephoned Sandra | 0:41:59 | 0:42:02 | |
to tell her what the score is. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:04 | |
We next need to telephone her to tell her the results | 0:42:04 | 0:42:07 | |
because minus £54 is your score. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:09 | |
She knows about that but she won't know what the Blues, | 0:42:09 | 0:42:12 | |
the victors today, have scored for a bit. | 0:42:12 | 0:42:14 | |
And I don't think going through the individual numbers | 0:42:14 | 0:42:16 | |
helps particularly. | 0:42:16 | 0:42:18 | |
-I'd rather you didn't! -No, so we'll whitewash over that. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:21 | |
But the main thing is we're very, very sorry | 0:42:21 | 0:42:23 | |
-not to have your sister here. -Thank you. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:24 | |
But very, very pleased that she's getting better and that | 0:42:24 | 0:42:27 | |
-is the good news, really. -Thank you. | 0:42:27 | 0:42:28 | |
And thanks so much for joining us, Sue. That's great. | 0:42:28 | 0:42:31 | |
But the victors are going home with some cash. | 0:42:31 | 0:42:33 | |
They're going home with £45. | 0:42:33 | 0:42:34 | |
THEY GIGGLE | 0:42:34 | 0:42:36 | |
There is £45. | 0:42:36 | 0:42:38 | |
Now, who would have thought that the plastic skeleton would | 0:42:38 | 0:42:41 | |
contribute £40 profits? | 0:42:41 | 0:42:43 | |
So, he's no dead stiff. | 0:42:43 | 0:42:46 | |
And the hip flask which made a dreamy £22 profit | 0:42:47 | 0:42:51 | |
so congratulations, Christina, on that. | 0:42:51 | 0:42:53 | |
That was a very, very good buy. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:55 | |
Wasn't it good fun? It was good fun. | 0:42:55 | 0:42:56 | |
Such good fun that you ought to join us soon | 0:42:56 | 0:42:58 | |
for some more bargain-hunting. Yes? Yes! | 0:42:58 | 0:43:01 |
