# I've been driving in my car

0:00:040:00:06

# It's not quite a Jaguar... #

0:00:070:00:09

Today, we've travelled east to Norfolk.

0:00:090:00:13

And just look at this place! It goes on,

0:00:130:00:17

and on, and on...

0:00:170:00:20

No time to hang about! Let's go bargain hunting, yeah.

0:00:220:00:26

Did you know that Norfolk is one of the few counties

0:00:560:00:59

in the United Kingdom not to have a motorway link?

0:00:590:01:03

Well, you will be reassured to know that our teams are prepared

0:01:030:01:08

to go the full distance and to drive a hard bargain.

0:01:080:01:12

Let's take a sneaky peak as to what's coming up. Oh, yes.

0:01:120:01:16

Some strange goings-on with the Reds...

0:01:180:01:20

Can we use this first, just to check?

0:01:220:01:25

Just check, see what it says - oh, it says yes!

0:01:250:01:27

The Blues try and busk it.

0:01:270:01:28

-I've got one of these at home.

-Oh, have you? Exactly the same?

0:01:310:01:34

Almost exactly the same.

0:01:340:01:36

And it all goes hopping mad at the auction.

0:01:360:01:39

SHE MOUTHS

0:01:390:01:41

Sensational!

0:01:410:01:43

But before all that, let's meet the teams.

0:01:430:01:45

On today's programme, we have two teams of loving couples.

0:01:460:01:50

For the Reds, we've got Alison and Dominic,

0:01:500:01:54

and for the Blues we have Rebecca and Anthony. Hello, everyone!

0:01:540:01:58

-ALL: Hello!

-Lovely to see you.

0:01:580:02:01

Now, Dominic, tell me about your psychic abilities.

0:02:010:02:04

Well, I do lots of different things. I'm a medium,

0:02:040:02:07

that's what I do primarily, but I'm also an aura reader,

0:02:070:02:10

which I do in Harley Street. I read people's auras.

0:02:100:02:12

And I also work with psychometry,

0:02:120:02:14

which is feeling objects and feeling the energy from objects.

0:02:140:02:16

So, for instance, if I picked up your bow-tie, I'd probably feel that it belonged to you.

0:02:160:02:20

-Would you really?

-Yeah, maybe.

-What exactly happens, then?

0:02:200:02:22

Do you get, like, a vision with the teeth

0:02:220:02:25

and the glasses and the hat, or...?

0:02:250:02:27

Not quite as wide as that! But you get a feel.

0:02:270:02:30

You get a natural sense of where the thing's been or where it belongs.

0:02:300:02:33

Alison, you also work as a personal assistant to Dominic, your fiance.

0:02:330:02:38

I do. I do, yes.

0:02:380:02:39

So, does that involve anything psychic yourself,

0:02:390:02:42

-or are you there in a support role?

-Little bit.

0:02:420:02:44

Well, it's a bit of a support role,

0:02:440:02:46

but it's a little bit of psychic as well,

0:02:460:02:48

because I do actually see things in a crystal ball.

0:02:480:02:51

So I can see images, and Dominic's helped me to do psychic development,

0:02:510:02:54

so I can see objects, faces, and pick things up which are paranormal.

0:02:540:02:59

Are you going to bring your special abilities into play today on Bargain Hunt?

0:02:590:03:02

-Would you like to see my pendulum?

-I beg your pardon?!

0:03:020:03:05

-LAUGHTER

-Gosh, we've only just met!

0:03:050:03:07

Um, yes, I'd love to have a look at your pendulum!

0:03:070:03:10

-You've got it about your person?

-I have, and this is what I will be using.

-Will you?

0:03:100:03:13

Yes, and it goes round in circles and it means...

0:03:130:03:16

Oh, see, it's going "yes" already! So that's a good sign.

0:03:160:03:18

How do you know it's going "yes" and not "no"?

0:03:180:03:20

-Because clockwise is "yes", and anticlockwise is "no".

-Ah.

0:03:200:03:24

This is going to be exciting.

0:03:240:03:26

A completely new slant on Bargain Hunt. Anyway, very good luck!

0:03:260:03:29

-Thank you.

-Perfect. Gosh, what fun.

0:03:290:03:30

Now, Tony. How did you two get together?

0:03:300:03:33

Well, Tim, we met at college.

0:03:330:03:35

I was a mature student and Becky was an immature student, yes.

0:03:350:03:38

Makes sense!

0:03:380:03:40

We were doing a role-play and we just happened to be

0:03:400:03:43

thrust together in the role-play. I was her boss.

0:03:430:03:45

And I didn't know what her name was, so I just made one up on the spot.

0:03:450:03:48

I said, "Oh, Mrs Simpkins," and she just fell about laughing,

0:03:480:03:51

and we've not stopped since, really.

0:03:510:03:53

So since those early days of role-playing,

0:03:530:03:56

-that kind of kitted you up for a living, didn't it?

-Well, sort of.

0:03:560:04:00

For me, they weren't such early days, but, er...

0:04:000:04:03

I do acting and singer-songwriting on the side,

0:04:030:04:06

but I'm trying to make it less on the side and more on the front.

0:04:060:04:09

Becky, you fancy yourself a bit of a performer too, don't you?

0:04:090:04:12

Yeah. Not quite to his level,

0:04:120:04:13

but I belong to a small local singing group,

0:04:130:04:15

we're called Feering Singers - Feering being a local village.

0:04:150:04:19

And we do one big show a year and a few smaller events.

0:04:190:04:23

We do things like go round old folks' homes and that sort of thing,

0:04:230:04:27

and cheer them up. And everything we raise we give to charity.

0:04:270:04:30

-Oh, lovely.

-So we have a nominated charity.

0:04:300:04:32

You don't just happen to have a tune up your sleeve

0:04:320:04:35

that you'd like to give us from your repertoire, have you?

0:04:350:04:37

Do you know, I don't.

0:04:370:04:39

THEY LAUGH

0:04:390:04:40

You wouldn't like it!

0:04:400:04:41

When you're not singing your socks off, what do you get up to?

0:04:410:04:45

Well, I run my own business these days,

0:04:450:04:47

for about the last three years. I set up a training company,

0:04:470:04:50

which is what I've been doing for a long, long time.

0:04:500:04:53

And I work with businesses on their customer service delivery.

0:04:530:04:56

So, what are your team tactics today with the £300 I'm about to give you?

0:04:560:04:59

-Oh, erm...

-Tactics, tactics!

-..find something to buy that'll make a profit.

0:04:590:05:03

-Ah, that's a good idea!

-That's about as far as we go!

0:05:030:05:06

We'd quite like some unusual, quirky things.

0:05:060:05:08

OK. Well, that's exciting.

0:05:080:05:09

Now, the money moment -

0:05:090:05:11

-£300 apiece.

-Lovely.

-There's your 300.

-Thank you!

0:05:110:05:13

You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go!

0:05:130:05:16

And very, very, very good luck.

0:05:160:05:18

I wonder what's going to happen?

0:05:180:05:20

Now, our two tremendous teams need two extraordinary experts.

0:05:230:05:27

Helping the Reds make a step in the right direction

0:05:280:05:31

is Paul Laidlaw.

0:05:310:05:32

And the expert who never gets rattled under pressure -

0:05:350:05:38

it's Catherine Southon for the Blues.

0:05:380:05:41

Right then, Alison, Dominic, what's this I hear about a shopping list?

0:05:450:05:49

Yes, I've got a shopping list in my head. We want rocking horses,

0:05:490:05:52

any sort - antique ones, brightly coloured ones - and even militaria.

0:05:520:05:57

-Have we got a game plan today?

-Yes.

0:05:570:05:59

Don't laugh! I'm serious!

0:05:590:06:02

-And old Dominic?

-Yeah, I'm looking for antique cufflinks,

0:06:020:06:05

and things like that.

0:06:050:06:06

Yeah, I find them fascinating. They range in price,

0:06:060:06:08

but they can be very easily found

0:06:080:06:10

-disguised amongst loads of bric-a-brac on tables.

-OK, yeah.

0:06:100:06:13

-What is our game plan?

-Buy three items and make a profit.

0:06:130:06:16

-Yes!

-Well, that sounds good to me.

0:06:160:06:19

-You must have a secret weapon amongst your...

-I have, I have.

0:06:190:06:22

And this is my pendulum.

0:06:220:06:25

I hate to think!

0:06:250:06:26

THEY LAUGH

0:06:260:06:27

-Right, teams! Your 60 minutes starts now.

-BELL CHIMES

0:06:270:06:30

Come on, let's do this!

0:06:300:06:32

Come on, then.

0:06:320:06:34

So, from that, I fathom Paul will be having an early lunch,

0:06:340:06:37

and Catherine has her work cut out.

0:06:370:06:39

-Money for old rope?

-THEY LAUGH

0:06:390:06:42

Thank you, Dominic. I do the jokes round here!

0:06:420:06:44

All the old jokes are the best.

0:06:440:06:46

Moving on to the plucky Blues, then.

0:06:460:06:48

-I've got one of these at home.

-Oh, have you? Exactly the same?

0:06:500:06:53

Almost exactly the same, different make.

0:06:530:06:55

And how much did you pay for yours?

0:06:550:06:56

-It was free.

-Ah.

-And it's better than this one.

0:06:560:06:58

What's on this one?

0:06:580:07:00

-VENDOR:

-It's 88.

-88?

0:07:000:07:01

Yeah, 88's a bit more...

0:07:010:07:03

-Bit too much? Maybe sort of £40, £50.

-Yeah.

0:07:030:07:05

-OK, well, there's lots...

-We'll think about it.

0:07:050:07:08

It's food for thought, here. We've got a lot to look at.

0:07:080:07:11

-What do you think of these? I know you mentioned militaria.

-Yes.

0:07:110:07:14

This strictly isn't, but I see here little die-cast lead soldiers,

0:07:140:07:17

and I guess they're First World War period.

0:07:170:07:19

Can we have a look? Can we take them out?

0:07:190:07:21

-May we see those? Would that be all right?

-Thank you.

0:07:210:07:23

There's my favourite.

0:07:260:07:27

That's a Vickers machine gunner.

0:07:270:07:29

Absolutely tremendous.

0:07:290:07:31

-Absolutely love these.

-Yeah? "Absolutely love" works for me!

0:07:310:07:35

-Oh, look at that!

-Yes, yes, yes.

0:07:350:07:36

We are in the trenches of the First World War.

0:07:360:07:39

Can we talk about how much?

0:07:390:07:41

VENDOR: 25 quid for that.

0:07:410:07:42

-Is that it?

-We could do 20?

0:07:420:07:45

-God, you're mean.

-Yeah.

0:07:450:07:47

-£20?

-Stop reading us like a book!

0:07:470:07:49

-Oh, go on.

-Tiny little bit, 15?

0:07:490:07:52

VENDOR: Go on, make me a decent offer.

0:07:520:07:54

-£20.

-18? 18?

-Please?

0:07:540:07:55

18?

0:07:550:07:57

What have we bought them for? Yeah, 20's the price!

0:07:570:08:00

Can we use this first, just to check?

0:08:000:08:02

Just check, see what it says, if it says...

0:08:020:08:04

Oh, the pendulum is out. Maybe that'll swing it!

0:08:040:08:08

Oh, it says yes, so...

0:08:080:08:10

-You're a good man. Thank you.

-Thank you! Thank you ever so much!

0:08:100:08:13

You've come out fighting, Reds. And all within four minutes.

0:08:130:08:16

Well done!

0:08:160:08:18

The Blues, however, are still weighing up their options.

0:08:180:08:21

-This is interesting.

-Nice set of scales?

-What do you weigh on that?

0:08:210:08:24

Is that a people weigher, or for sacks, or...?

0:08:240:08:26

It's a big enough platform, isn't it, to put...?

0:08:260:08:28

It's for potatoes or something.

0:08:280:08:30

-Go on, try it.

-What do you mean, "Go on, try it"?!

0:08:300:08:32

I couldn't possibly let you see how heavy I am!

0:08:320:08:35

See, we take the weights off here,

0:08:350:08:36

and then drop them, slot them in here.

0:08:360:08:39

And then we do a little bit of tuning there.

0:08:390:08:40

-And then you adjust.

-That's the fine-tuner.

0:08:400:08:42

It's got a maker's name on that. Fereday?

0:08:420:08:45

What would you say...? Oh, it is for potatoes.

0:08:450:08:47

See, I was right!

0:08:470:08:49

-Yeah. You're more knowledgeable than we thought!

-There we are.

0:08:490:08:54

Well, lots of people need scales for potatoes these days, don't they?

0:08:540:08:57

-The price worries me a bit.

-65.

-Do you like them?

0:08:570:09:00

-We would have that in our house.

-Yeah, we'd have it.

-In the house?

0:09:000:09:04

-If you saw our house you'd understand.

-I'd understand why.

0:09:040:09:07

Ahem. I'll chip in here. Let's leave the Blues to mull things over.

0:09:070:09:11

What about that sign, Paul?

0:09:180:09:20

The polling station sign.

0:09:200:09:22

-Not sure it gets my vote.

-I don't know, what do you think?

0:09:220:09:25

-Well, I don't know, it just...

-It stands out, doesn't it?

0:09:250:09:28

-It's something different. What do you think?

-Do you know what I think?

0:09:280:09:31

That is an icon of British culture, is it not?

0:09:310:09:34

-Well, it is, isn't it?

-Why not? It is, yes.

0:09:340:09:36

Isn't it? We've all seen it.

0:09:360:09:38

Throughout our lives we will be drawn to this periodically,

0:09:380:09:41

and in my opinion it's some of the most exciting times of our life.

0:09:410:09:44

Someone'll buy that on a whim as an interior decorating piece.

0:09:440:09:47

If you've got the big converted warehouse apartment, stick that up,

0:09:470:09:52

it is a talking point, a focal point, it's a whimsical piece.

0:09:520:09:55

If you have a garage with a classic car,

0:09:550:09:58

all your enamel signs up, it's a classic sign to have up there.

0:09:580:10:01

So there is a market, one way or another, for it.

0:10:010:10:03

Ask me to put a price on it, on the other hand... What's it worth?

0:10:030:10:06

-20, 30, 40 quid.

-20, 30, 40 quid?

0:10:060:10:08

So if you get it for a tenner, it's well worth it.

0:10:080:10:11

If you get it for a tenner. If we don't get it for a tenner, then maybe we go on elsewhere.

0:10:110:10:14

-Ask the price.

-OK.

-Go and ask the price.

-I will do. OK.

0:10:140:10:17

And, if it's a good price, maybe it's a sign, hey, Alison?

0:10:170:10:20

She's still smiling!

0:10:220:10:24

Originally it's 35, but he'll sell it for 18.

0:10:240:10:27

-18, what do you think?

-Oh, we're not going to lose on that, are we?

0:10:270:10:30

-What do you say?

-You'd be unlucky to lose on it,

0:10:300:10:34

but it seems hellish close to 15.

0:10:340:10:36

-Time for Paul to have a chat to the dealer, who's rather shy.

-Big man!

0:10:360:10:41

HE MOUTHS

0:10:420:10:43

15 quid? Go on, dude.

0:10:430:10:47

DEALER: Yeah, if you give me peace.

0:10:470:10:48

You're a good man. Thanks very much!

0:10:480:10:51

He's a charmer, that Mr Laidlaw.

0:10:510:10:53

-We're going for the record, here. That's nine minutes.

-Brilliant!

0:10:530:10:56

What can you buy in a minute?

0:10:560:10:58

No time-wasting for the Reds!

0:10:580:11:00

The Blues, however, have had a long WAIT to go with those scales.

0:11:000:11:05

We need potato scales in our life, right now, badly.

0:11:050:11:09

How would you feel about £35?

0:11:090:11:11

38 and they're yours.

0:11:120:11:15

-It's quite low-risk, isn't it?

-Yeah?

-Let's go for it. Can we? 38?

0:11:150:11:18

Thank you, sir.

0:11:180:11:19

I fancy something a bit ethnographic. Do you?

0:11:210:11:25

Well, if you do, you'll like the look of this.

0:11:250:11:28

Where does it come from?

0:11:290:11:31

Think South Africa and you might be getting warm.

0:11:310:11:34

It's probably Zulu, and it's made of something called ironwood.

0:11:340:11:39

Ironwood, by definition, is very, very hard,

0:11:390:11:43

and it's also incredibly heavy -

0:11:430:11:45

one of those woods that would sink in water.

0:11:450:11:48

Being made out of one lump, this swelling bit, the knop,

0:11:480:11:53

has had to be cut about to make an almost perfect sphere.

0:11:530:11:58

But what's really, really rare about it

0:11:580:12:01

is this bit projecting at the end, that looks exactly like a nipple.

0:12:010:12:06

That nipple on every other Zulu throwing club

0:12:060:12:12

that I have ever seen, has been broken off and smoothed over.

0:12:120:12:16

But this one, the nipple is complete.

0:12:160:12:19

How lovely's that?

0:12:190:12:21

It's got the feel of something that was probably made

0:12:210:12:25

over 100 years ago and, if you're a tribal art or weapons collector,

0:12:250:12:31

this is a must for you.

0:12:310:12:33

How much would it cost you? Well, poke around the Norfolk fair,

0:12:330:12:37

you could find this on a stall down the way for £60.

0:12:370:12:41

What's it worth in a specialist ethnographic sale?

0:12:410:12:45

Could be as much as £150.

0:12:450:12:47

But it doesn't stop there.

0:12:470:12:49

Try this one on for size.

0:12:500:12:53

What is it? It's a turtle.

0:12:530:12:56

What's it made of? It's made of ironwood.

0:12:560:13:00

The same wood that the African throwing club is made from,

0:13:000:13:04

but it comes from a completely different place.

0:13:040:13:06

Think Pacific Basin.

0:13:060:13:08

Think Fiji, and you'd be right.

0:13:080:13:11

What the Fijian craftsman around 1900 has done here

0:13:110:13:16

is to craft a great lump of ironwood

0:13:160:13:19

into roughly the shape of a turtle.

0:13:190:13:22

It's been incised with these crude lines

0:13:220:13:25

to represent the sort of shape and decoration of a turtle shell.

0:13:250:13:30

It's had these hardwood flippers, look, added to it,

0:13:300:13:34

and a very simple, crude head has been carved.

0:13:340:13:38

But the best bit, for me, are the eyes.

0:13:380:13:42

Because what we have here are two circles of cut shell,

0:13:420:13:46

with a bit of ebony in the middle,

0:13:460:13:49

that make this thing look absolutely adorable.

0:13:490:13:53

Would anybody else think it's adorable?

0:13:530:13:55

You bet your life they would.

0:13:550:13:57

This is the sort of thing that you can find for £40 but, again,

0:13:570:14:02

in the right sale, in the right place, could bring as much as £150.

0:14:020:14:07

Now that's what I call flipping marvellous.

0:14:070:14:10

How are our very own tribe getting on?

0:14:110:14:13

We left the Blues with one item to their name.

0:14:130:14:16

-Quite like teapots.

-Yes, you did say about a teapot.

-I like teapots.

0:14:160:14:21

-I just think that's a nice...

-Very Deco.

-Oh, it is, isn't it?

0:14:210:14:24

I love the way it all comes together.

0:14:240:14:26

-It's very pleasing.

-It is.

0:14:260:14:28

-VENDOR: It's unusual to find that.

-It's nice to find that on the tray.

0:14:280:14:32

Is there a name on it?

0:14:320:14:34

JRMS.

0:14:340:14:36

This is all silver-plated on copper.

0:14:360:14:40

-But I love...

-The look is just lovely, isn't it?

0:14:400:14:42

-The look is good, isn't it?

-I like it.

0:14:420:14:44

-Really of a period, isn't it?

-So, is it very expensive?

0:14:440:14:48

VENDOR: Well, it's not particularly cheap. I mean, it's 110.

0:14:480:14:52

I mean, I can do a bit, but I haven't really got volumes of room in it.

0:14:520:14:57

What's the bottom line on this one?

0:14:570:15:00

I can do 85.

0:15:000:15:01

ANTHONY: Bit of wear round the edges, isn't there?

0:15:010:15:03

Start to see there, you've got the copper coming through.

0:15:030:15:06

-VENDOR: Yeah, a little bit.

-Could you do 75 on it?

0:15:060:15:09

I'll do 80, but that is it.

0:15:090:15:12

-OK.

-OK?

-What do you think?

0:15:120:15:14

I think if I was into Deco,

0:15:140:15:17

I would... I would have that, no problem.

0:15:170:15:21

-I think Deco's quite popular, isn't it, at the moment?

-Let's do it.

0:15:210:15:24

-80?

-80. I think we should.

-80. Let's do it.

0:15:240:15:27

-Happy?

-I'm happy with that.

-Yes, I think that's very good.

0:15:270:15:30

-Thank you so much.

-That's quite all right.

0:15:300:15:32

Well done, Blues.

0:15:320:15:33

That makes both teams level-pegging at two items apiece.

0:15:330:15:37

Meanwhile, Mr Laidlaw is laying down the law.

0:15:370:15:39

You can keep your brass bell.

0:15:390:15:41

Let me show you something with some substance.

0:15:430:15:45

No swagger stick, this.

0:15:450:15:47

That's a substantial gentleman's cane.

0:15:470:15:50

Come on, then, Dom.

0:15:500:15:51

Any strong vibes? What do you feel, mate?

0:15:510:15:54

-That is really heavy.

-Nothing, apparently.

0:15:540:15:57

I think it's ebony,

0:15:570:15:58

and that explains the density of the wood, yeah?

0:15:580:16:01

The pommel - it's good workmanship there.

0:16:010:16:03

I think it could be Indian.

0:16:030:16:05

I believe it to be silver.

0:16:050:16:07

-Do you like?

-I do, actually.

0:16:070:16:09

-Now that we know what we know?

-We really like it.

0:16:090:16:11

-We really like it, don't we?

-We do really like it.

0:16:110:16:14

But we don't know what the price is. Can you check, please?

0:16:140:16:16

I asked before, how much was this?

0:16:160:16:18

VENDOR: It was 80, and I said you could have it for 60.

0:16:180:16:20

-Could be £60.

-All right, 60.

0:16:200:16:22

I think that's worth £50-£80 under the hammer.

0:16:220:16:26

I think we're in the safe zone. What do you reckon?

0:16:260:16:30

-So, at 50, we've got a really good chance?

-I think you have.

0:16:300:16:34

-I think you have.

-50?

0:16:340:16:36

-Did you hear that number?

-I did, yeah.

0:16:360:16:38

Um, OK then, yeah. We'll do it for 50.

0:16:380:16:41

-Thank you!

-Thanks very much!

0:16:410:16:43

-Yes!

-Guys, handshake time!

0:16:430:16:46

Crikey, Reds. You can certainly strut your stuff!

0:16:460:16:49

That's all three items bought with ten minutes left on the clock.

0:16:490:16:53

Meanwhile, the Blues haven't moved far,

0:16:530:16:55

and they're going slightly potty over their next potential purchase.

0:16:550:16:59

Is this pewter?

0:16:590:17:00

-VENDOR:

-That actually is 18th century, that.

0:17:000:17:03

A Georgian commode liner.

0:17:030:17:05

To pop into a potty?

0:17:050:17:06

Mm. But they're very rare. You don't actually find very many.

0:17:060:17:09

How much is it?

0:17:090:17:11

Well, it should be worth a lot more than it is,

0:17:110:17:14

but I'll do it for 35, if you want it.

0:17:140:17:16

Do you know, I like that, it's bizarre.

0:17:160:17:20

-Come on, Catherine, we want an opinion.

-I know! It's just, it's...

0:17:200:17:23

-There's no, as far as I can see, no marks.

-How commercial is this?

0:17:230:17:26

You could use it for your bottle of champagne, couldn't you?

0:17:260:17:29

Hmm, I'm not sure I'd be putting ice or my champers

0:17:290:17:32

in a commode liner, if that's what it is.

0:17:320:17:34

-Shall I see if it fits?

-Or putting it on my head, Tone!

0:17:340:17:36

It actually had -

0:17:360:17:38

in fact, it's still there, if you want to go and see it -

0:17:380:17:40

this was completely off,

0:17:400:17:42

and it was stitched together with thread, around the metal.

0:17:420:17:45

Oh, really?

0:17:450:17:46

And it had a big label on it, "very rare".

0:17:460:17:48

This has been repaired, though?

0:17:480:17:50

Well, I think they nearly always are.

0:17:500:17:52

18th century, that one.

0:17:520:17:54

Well, 1700 and something, yeah.

0:17:540:17:57

-I mean, it's old.

-Probably about 1760s, 1770s?

0:17:570:18:00

-What is it, 30?

-35.

-35.

0:18:000:18:03

I prefer 30. Your price is much better!

0:18:030:18:06

I'm already not getting anywhere with that.

0:18:060:18:09

I mean, I just thought, you know, I'll do it for 35, cos I thought...

0:18:090:18:13

Would you see a difference in going to 33?

0:18:130:18:16

-Oh, that is...

-Oh, that's so hard.

0:18:160:18:18

Well, I'm already on a loss. Go on, 33.

0:18:200:18:23

A pot to pee, for 33.

0:18:230:18:25

Thank you very much! That's lovely.

0:18:250:18:29

Thank you, we're done!

0:18:290:18:30

That's it, time's up!

0:18:300:18:32

So we got three items, we panicked a bit at the end, but we've done it.

0:18:320:18:37

-We rock.

-We do!

0:18:370:18:38

Well done, Blues. You got there in the end.

0:18:380:18:41

Let's check out what the Red Team bought, eh?

0:18:410:18:43

First in the firing line was the collection of toy soldiers.

0:18:430:18:47

They paid £20.

0:18:470:18:48

The second item they elected for was the polling sign - £15 paid.

0:18:490:18:54

And finally, they waltzed away with a walking stick for £50.

0:18:550:18:58

-Well, you two.

-Hello.

-How'd it go?

-Very well. Really good.

0:19:010:19:04

-Yeah, we've really enjoyed ourselves, thank you.

-Yeah.

0:19:040:19:07

-Rumour has it you spent a tonne of cash.

-Not that much, but, yeah...

0:19:070:19:10

-How much?

-£85.

-Is that all?

-Yeah, that's all.

0:19:100:19:13

£85! Why do I give you £300?!

0:19:130:19:16

Anyway, £85 no doubt very well spent. Good.

0:19:160:19:20

£215 of leftover lolly, please.

0:19:200:19:23

-There you go.

-Thank you very much.

0:19:230:19:25

-That's a massive amount, that is, isn't it?

-Yeah.

-Good.

0:19:250:19:27

Which is your favourite piece, Alison?

0:19:270:19:29

-My favourite are the toy soldiers.

-Toy soldiers are your favourite.

0:19:290:19:33

-Yes.

-What about you, Dominic?

-Yeah, toy soldiers, yeah.

-OK.

0:19:330:19:36

-Are they going to bring the biggest profit?

-Yes.

-They are?

0:19:360:19:38

-I think the cane might.

-The cane might?

-Yeah, I think it might.

0:19:380:19:41

-But I like the soldiers.

-Well, give it a bit of stick, eh?

0:19:410:19:43

Now, hand it over to Paulus.

0:19:430:19:45

That's a great wodge there, Paul, I hope you're going to spend it all.

0:19:450:19:48

I've no idea what I'm going to do with it, Tim. No idea,

0:19:480:19:51

but I better do something quick before they go home!

0:19:510:19:53

-Before they all pack up.

-Indeed.

-Exactly right.

0:19:530:19:55

Anyway, good luck with that,

0:19:550:19:57

now we're going to check out what the Blue Team bought, aren't we?

0:19:570:20:00

Their first choice was the set of sack scales.

0:20:000:20:04

They paid £38.

0:20:040:20:05

It was the silver-plated tea set next.

0:20:050:20:09

They handed over £80.

0:20:090:20:11

And, finally, they all had a cackle over the witch's hat commode liner.

0:20:110:20:15

£33 paid.

0:20:150:20:17

Which is your favourite piece, Rebecca?

0:20:170:20:19

I still love the first thing we bought, the potato scales.

0:20:190:20:23

-Potato scales for you, very good.

-Yep.

0:20:230:20:25

And which do you feel most in love with?

0:20:250:20:28

-I tend towards the tea set, cos it's just so classy.

-So classy.

0:20:280:20:32

And that's what we like, is classiness, on this show.

0:20:320:20:34

And will your classy tea set bring the biggest profit?

0:20:340:20:38

I haven't the faintest idea.

0:20:380:20:39

-Probably.

-OK.

-What do you think?

0:20:390:20:41

-No, potato scales!

-Will bring the biggest profit?

0:20:410:20:43

-Yeah, it's a winner.

-You might be right, actually.

0:20:430:20:45

OK, fine. And you spent how much?

0:20:450:20:47

-£151.

-151?

-We did, yes.

0:20:470:20:50

151, so I want 149, then.

0:20:500:20:53

-Absolutely. Tony?

-£149.

0:20:530:20:55

Thank you. 149. I'm going to be counting all the little coins,

0:20:560:21:00

as are millions of people.

0:21:000:21:02

You've got a fiver in there, good.

0:21:020:21:04

I'll have four of those, thank you.

0:21:040:21:06

-There's a heap for you, then, Catherine.

-There is a heap.

0:21:060:21:08

-You love all that, don't you?

-I do. What a challenge!

0:21:080:21:11

I'm going to do my best to blow the lot.

0:21:110:21:12

-Good.

-Excellent.

-That's what we like.

0:21:120:21:14

More fighting talk. Great!

0:21:140:21:17

Meanwhile, in just a few short moments,

0:21:170:21:19

we're going to find ourselves at the auction. Oh, lovely.

0:21:190:21:22

Well, how lovely is this?

0:21:330:21:35

We're in Cambridge, at Cheffins Saleroom, with Charles Ashton.

0:21:350:21:38

-Charles, how are you doing?

-Very well, Tim. Nice to see you here.

0:21:380:21:40

Well, we're looking forward to the auction, I can tell you.

0:21:400:21:43

And we've got a mixture of lots,

0:21:430:21:44

-starting off with Mr Laidlaw's toy soldiers.

-Yeah.

0:21:440:21:48

I mean, they're a nice little group of Hill's toy soldiers.

0:21:480:21:52

Yeah, very nice if you wanted a little play.

0:21:520:21:54

-Absolutely, yeah.

-How much would it cost you to play?

0:21:540:21:56

Not a lot, probably only £20 or £30.

0:21:560:21:59

-That's fine, £20 was paid, so that should be a dead cert.

-Yep.

0:21:590:22:02

Next is the aluminium polling station sign,

0:22:020:22:05

-which is handy with any election coming up.

-Absolutely.

0:22:050:22:09

What's that likely to be worth?

0:22:090:22:10

Well, I suppose it might have a possible student appeal.

0:22:100:22:13

Place like Cambridge, you get somebody who fancies themselves

0:22:130:22:15

as a bit of a political animal, or what have you,

0:22:150:22:18

who wants to spice up their own student digs, might go for that.

0:22:180:22:21

But I think it might be a bit of a struggle.

0:22:210:22:23

-I can't list anybody who wants one at the moment.

-No, quite.

0:22:230:22:26

But you never know, you never know.

0:22:260:22:28

-Anyway, how much?

-£15 to £25.

0:22:280:22:30

-Who knows?

-£15 was genuinely paid.

0:22:300:22:33

And, lastly, to give it a bit of stick, we've got this fine ebony

0:22:330:22:36

and Indian silver topped walking stick,

0:22:360:22:39

which is really chunky, isn't it?

0:22:390:22:41

Yes, it is. It's a good quality item, feels good in the hand.

0:22:410:22:45

Nice quality sort of Arabesque, foliate detail to the handle,

0:22:450:22:49

which will be in an unmarked but I think low-grade silver.

0:22:490:22:53

-Typical Indian stuff.

-Yeah, absolutely.

0:22:530:22:56

It's in basically pretty good shape.

0:22:560:22:57

It's obviously been well-loved and well-used.

0:22:570:23:00

Do you think it's worth £50?

0:23:000:23:02

-We've only said £20-£40 on it.

-OK.

0:23:020:23:04

-Might make 50, though, mightn't it?

-It might do, yes.

0:23:040:23:07

I mean, walking sticks are one of those collectibles

0:23:070:23:09

which have gone up and up recently, and it's a perfectly genuine thing.

0:23:090:23:13

-Anyway, we'll have to live in hope.

-Absolutely.

0:23:130:23:15

But if it doesn't do very well, they'll need their bonus buy,

0:23:150:23:17

so let's go and have a look at it.

0:23:170:23:19

-Now, Alison, Dom.

-Hello.

0:23:200:23:22

We come to the bonus buy moment.

0:23:220:23:25

You spent £85. Miserable!

0:23:250:23:28

-And you gave him £215.

-We did.

-Paul, what did you spend it on?

0:23:280:23:33

Now, what do you make of that?

0:23:330:23:36

-Oh!

-Now, you know what it is, don't you?

0:23:360:23:38

-Oh, it's a part of a propeller, isn't it?

-You are spot on.

0:23:380:23:42

-Yes! Ah.

-So not any timber photograph frame.

0:23:420:23:45

This started life as a Flying Corps laminated propeller frame.

0:23:450:23:49

-Fantastic.

-So if you can feel history in objects, this has got it.

0:23:490:23:54

But I say this has -

0:23:540:23:56

-these have.

-Oh, you got a pair!

0:23:560:23:59

-Wow, interesting!

-Get me another pair, I defy you. Have a look.

0:23:590:24:02

-Wow, thank you.

-Wow, did you get...

0:24:020:24:04

-Same aircraft?

-Inevitably.

0:24:040:24:06

I really love these.

0:24:060:24:07

They are absolutely spectacular.

0:24:070:24:09

Something I would choose, with an Air Force background, as I have.

0:24:090:24:12

But I also want to knwo how much they cost.

0:24:120:24:14

Indeed, this was the biggie.

0:24:140:24:17

I paid £55 for the two.

0:24:170:24:19

-Right.

-Oh, right.

0:24:190:24:21

-You could pay £55 for one, effortlessly.

-Really?

0:24:210:24:24

-If I'd got 75, I'd be happy.

-Yes.

-Could we see 100?

0:24:240:24:29

Yes, we could. That would be a great margin.

0:24:290:24:32

I love them. I'd buy these myself.

0:24:320:24:35

They're the sort of thing that actually shouts history at you.

0:24:350:24:39

Yeah. OK, well, we like 'em. Thank you very much, Paul.

0:24:390:24:42

But right now, for the audience at home,

0:24:420:24:44

let's find out exactly how much the auctioneer loves them.

0:24:440:24:46

-You ready for takeoff, Charles?

-Yeah, look at that.

-Yes, I know.

0:24:480:24:51

-I mean, they're bits of propeller, aren't they?

-They are.

0:24:510:24:54

They must be the tips of a propeller. Early 20th century.

0:24:540:24:58

Not a lot of finesse and quality about the construction

0:24:580:25:01

and the manufacture of them, but I suppose

0:25:010:25:04

if you're a collector of early 20th century, erm,

0:25:040:25:07

aeronautica, if we can call it that, then they might appeal to you.

0:25:070:25:11

-And everybody loves a photo frame.

-Absolutely.

0:25:110:25:14

And what is more evocative of a period,

0:25:140:25:17

particularly at the moment,

0:25:170:25:19

-than First World War related stuff?

-Yes.

0:25:190:25:23

-So, how much, do you think?

-We haven't been very bold.

0:25:230:25:25

-We've said between £20 and £40 only.

-£55 Paul Laidlaw paid.

0:25:250:25:29

That's it for the Reds. Now for the Blues.

0:25:290:25:32

For a kick-off for them, the sack scales.

0:25:320:25:35

I suppose you could heave your sack of coal onto them

0:25:350:25:37

as much as your sack of potatoes

0:25:370:25:39

and check they were the correct weight, all the rest of it.

0:25:390:25:42

OK, so you're not going to be terribly bold

0:25:420:25:44

with the price, I guess?

0:25:440:25:45

-No.

-How much?

-I think we've said £20-£30 only.

0:25:450:25:48

-OK, well, £38 was paid.

-Right.

0:25:480:25:50

Next, and I think much more interesting,

0:25:500:25:53

is this very satisfactory Art Deco three-piece tea set on its tray.

0:25:530:25:58

-Yes, indeed.

-Isn't that handsome, as a design object?

0:25:580:26:00

I think the design works very well indeed. It's a pretty, pretty set.

0:26:000:26:04

It's made by a firm called John Round and Son, who are not

0:26:040:26:07

as well-known as people like Walker and Hall

0:26:070:26:09

or James Dixon of Sheffield.

0:26:090:26:11

Hopefully the combination of all the little bit of detail

0:26:110:26:14

that goes into the making of this

0:26:140:26:16

will make it appeal to all the collectors out there.

0:26:160:26:18

And what's your estimate?

0:26:180:26:20

We've been a bit cautious, and said only £40-£60.

0:26:200:26:24

Don't worry about it. £80 was paid.

0:26:240:26:26

And lastly, for those who have almost everything,

0:26:260:26:30

you have an opportunity for a pewter jerry, is it?

0:26:300:26:34

I think it must be a commode, a liner.

0:26:340:26:37

Yes, I think it was originally called a witch's hat,

0:26:370:26:40

but it's more of an old-fashioned Welsh hat, I think,

0:26:400:26:44

in terms of the shape and the form.

0:26:440:26:46

But it just begs the question of what does one do with it?

0:26:460:26:48

It's had a bit of... Somebody's probably sat on it a bit too hard.

0:26:480:26:52

HE LAUGHS

0:26:520:26:53

It's quite old, too.

0:26:530:26:55

We think probably late 18th or early 19th century.

0:26:550:26:57

-Difficult thing to value.

-Yeah, impossible, really. Yes, absolutely.

0:26:570:27:01

So what sort of amount have you put on it?

0:27:010:27:03

I think we've sort of suggested it might be worth

0:27:030:27:05

-in the region of £20 or so.

-Well, £33 was our investment.

0:27:050:27:08

-And I suppose for a bit of fun anything might happen.

-Precisely.

0:27:080:27:12

By the time you've camped it up from the rostrum, Charles,

0:27:120:27:15

we could make something stratospheric out of it.

0:27:150:27:18

But in case it all goes wrong

0:27:180:27:19

they've always got their bonus buy to fall back on.

0:27:190:27:21

Let's go and have a look at it.

0:27:210:27:23

-Now, Rebecca, Anthony, how are you?

-Very well, thank you.

0:27:240:27:27

-Are you excited about this?

-Yes, absolutely.

-Very.

0:27:270:27:29

We're excited too. Now, you gave Catherine £149.

0:27:290:27:32

Catherine, what did you spend it on?

0:27:320:27:34

Oh! Little dog.

0:27:350:27:37

It's a dog. Right. OK!

0:27:370:27:39

-It's actually a mascot, a car mascot.

-Oh!

0:27:390:27:42

I was drawn to it because it's a model of a greyhound.

0:27:420:27:45

But look at the detail, look at these individual hairs.

0:27:450:27:48

-I thought the detail was superb.

-That is beautiful.

-It's lovely.

0:27:480:27:52

And it's solid nickel.

0:27:520:27:54

What car would that've been for, then? Greyhound?

0:27:540:27:56

-I don't think it was for a particular make of car.

-Right.

0:27:560:27:59

Exactly. So, they had two breeds of mascots,

0:27:590:28:02

one that went with a mark of car - so you bought an Alvis,

0:28:020:28:05

and that always had a hare sitting on its hind legs

0:28:050:28:08

on the bonnet, before the Second World War.

0:28:080:28:12

Or you went to the accessory shop

0:28:120:28:14

and bought the accessory that reflected your personal interest,

0:28:140:28:18

maybe in sport, or whatever. And then you'd select your mascot.

0:28:180:28:21

But these things are incredibly collectible, aren't they, Catherine?

0:28:210:28:24

They are, and especially a dog.

0:28:240:28:27

I mean, I think people will go crazy.

0:28:270:28:29

I think people will be excited by this.

0:28:290:28:31

What did you pay for it, Catherine?

0:28:310:28:33

-£65.

-Oh! That's all right.

0:28:330:28:35

Yeah, I think it's all right.

0:28:350:28:38

I would like to see that making a profit, I really would.

0:28:380:28:40

You don't pick right now,

0:28:400:28:42

you pick after the sale of your first three items,

0:28:420:28:44

but for the audience at home let's find out

0:28:440:28:46

what the auctioneer thinks about Catherine's greyhound mascot.

0:28:460:28:49

-Well. He's a nice hound, look.

-Isn't he just?

0:28:500:28:53

Yeah, standing very well, beautifully poised, you might say.

0:28:530:28:56

Little bit of general age wear to the plated surface,

0:28:560:29:00

with sort of a screw thread fixing underneath.

0:29:000:29:03

But actually, yeah, a pretty little...

0:29:030:29:06

I suppose a car mascot of some sort.

0:29:060:29:08

Or you could equally mount it onto a base

0:29:080:29:10

and have it as a rather nice paperweight on the desk.

0:29:100:29:13

It's certainly, you know, fairly substantial,

0:29:130:29:16

-it's a decent weight.

-Feels like 1920s, doesn't it?

0:29:160:29:19

Yeah, it does. It does.

0:29:190:29:20

I think it's certainly between the wars.

0:29:200:29:22

-I wouldn't think it's any earlier than that.

-No.

0:29:220:29:24

And again, we can't see any particular maker's marks on it,

0:29:240:29:27

-so it's impossible to say precisely who manufactured it.

-Mm.

0:29:270:29:31

-But it's nice quality.

-What sort of estimate?

0:29:310:29:34

Because it has no maker's name to it, we've suggested only £20 to £30.

0:29:340:29:37

Oh, dear. Catherine's going to be mortified. £65, she paid.

0:29:370:29:41

-But you never know.

-You never know. You might get some dog fanatic,

0:29:410:29:44

-greyhound addict, that'll go for it.

-Yes. Thank you, Charles.

0:29:440:29:48

Very good. OK, Charles, you'd best run along to the rostrum

0:29:480:29:52

and get this sale underway.

0:29:520:29:54

-Now, Alison, Dominic, how are you feeling?

-Hi!

0:29:560:29:59

-Oh, few butterflies.

-Are you?

-Yes, little bit.

0:29:590:30:01

-Is there anything, Alison, you wish you hadn't bought?

-No.

0:30:010:30:04

-No, you're very confident.

-No, I like them all.

0:30:040:30:06

-Dom, you're happy with that.

-Absolutely, yes.

0:30:060:30:08

Lots of people in the saleroom, and it's a good general sale, so you'll be great.

0:30:080:30:11

-Happy with this?

-Absolutely.

-Absolutely.

-OK, Paul?

0:30:110:30:14

Anyway, first item up is the toy soldiers, and here they come.

0:30:140:30:17

World War I British soldiers, there they are, the infantry,

0:30:170:30:21

in various states of readiness for battle.

0:30:210:30:23

You tell me 25 to get on, £25.

0:30:230:30:25

£25 is bid in the room.

0:30:250:30:27

At 25 down here at the front, thank you, at 25 here.

0:30:270:30:30

At 25, where's 30 gone now?

0:30:300:30:32

30, your neighbour, have here at 30.

0:30:320:30:35

And five at the back, 35 there, 35.

0:30:350:30:37

And 40, 40 bid now, 40.

0:30:370:30:39

-Look! You've doubled your money!

-45, 45. And 50 bid now, 50. At 50?

0:30:390:30:43

No, he says. The bid's here. 50, and 60...

0:30:430:30:47

It will go higher.

0:30:470:30:48

And the 60, no, you're both out now. So bid at 60.

0:30:480:30:51

One at the back, bid at 60,

0:30:510:30:52

-£60, and away then.

-£60!

0:30:520:30:54

Anybody else?

0:30:540:30:56

All done then, well done. At £60.

0:30:560:30:59

-£60 is plus £40.

-That's good, isn't it? Fantastic.

0:30:590:31:01

-I think Paul Laidlaw's phenomenal, don't you?

-Thanks, Paul!

0:31:010:31:04

He's our man.

0:31:040:31:05

Now, here comes to the polling station.

0:31:050:31:07

-You found it, Alison, you loved it.

-I did, yep.

0:31:070:31:09

There we are, the polling station sign.

0:31:090:31:12

If you haven't got one of these, now is your chance.

0:31:120:31:16

Have your own polling station set up

0:31:160:31:18

somewhere for the next round of elections.

0:31:180:31:20

There we are, might do for student rooms, who knows?

0:31:200:31:23

There we are. The world is your oyster.

0:31:230:31:25

I've got a bid for it, at 15, and 20 is bid now.

0:31:250:31:27

-At 25, already bid, now, 25 bid.

-Yes!

0:31:270:31:30

At 25 the bid, now, £25 for the polling station sign.

0:31:300:31:34

At 25, bid now, 25.

0:31:340:31:36

At 25, and 30.

0:31:360:31:38

£35 bid. At 35, still going here at £35.

0:31:380:31:42

Have we reached the limit?

0:31:420:31:43

At 35 it is, then, hammer up and down.

0:31:430:31:45

The polling station at £35.

0:31:450:31:47

Sold at 35.

0:31:470:31:48

£35 is plus £20 on that.

0:31:480:31:52

Now, are we going to get a profit on the stick?

0:31:530:31:56

Yes, yes, yes. Well, little bit.

0:31:560:31:58

Got a substantial quality lot here.

0:31:580:32:01

Bid's at... 20 starts it off, already, at 20 I'm bid now, 20.

0:32:010:32:04

25 I have now, 25 bid.

0:32:040:32:06

At 25 to start me off. At 25 and here, 30.

0:32:060:32:09

At 35. At 40.

0:32:090:32:11

40 at the front.

0:32:110:32:13

45. And 50.

0:32:130:32:14

And 60.

0:32:140:32:15

At the back now, 60 bid, 60.

0:32:150:32:17

Out at the front, 60, in at the back, bid at 60.

0:32:170:32:20

Anybody else, any more?

0:32:200:32:22

Has to be the 60. Done then, selling it away, yes or no at £60.

0:32:220:32:26

Yes! Well done. £60 is plus £10.

0:32:270:32:30

You got a profit on each item.

0:32:300:32:32

£40, £60, £70, easy.

0:32:320:32:34

-£70 profit.

-Thanks, Paul!

-£70 profit.

0:32:340:32:37

Now, what are you going to do, then,

0:32:370:32:39

about these propeller tip frame jobs?

0:32:390:32:42

-We're going to safeguard our profits, aren't we?

-Yeah.

0:32:420:32:45

-That's what we said.

-Yeah. Sorry, Paul, but...

-It's all right!

0:32:450:32:47

-You're going to ringfence them.

-Do you mind?

-Not at all, make good money.

0:32:470:32:51

We think it might make a profit, but...

0:32:510:32:52

It might, but we're not going to risk it, Paul. Is that OK?

0:32:520:32:55

-Of course it is!

-Sure?

0:32:550:32:56

You're dead to me now, you know that?

0:32:560:32:59

-No, seriously, is that it?

-Yeah, that's it.

-OK.

0:32:590:33:01

We're not going with the bonus buy, that's a cert.

0:33:010:33:03

Let's find out what the bonus buy is really worth, here we go.

0:33:030:33:07

£25 to get on for those, the pair of these photograph frames.

0:33:070:33:10

£25 to start me.

0:33:100:33:11

25, 25 it is. At 25 bid now.

0:33:110:33:14

25 takes me out as well.

0:33:140:33:16

At 25 bid now, 25 it is, at £25. Any more for any more, or not?

0:33:160:33:19

They've come all this way, remember.

0:33:190:33:21

At £25, and I shall sell, then, leaving it alone. Anybody else?

0:33:210:33:24

All done then at £25.

0:33:240:33:27

25.

0:33:270:33:28

-Good call!

-Minus £30.

0:33:290:33:32

Another sale, another day, another price. OK. But that's good.

0:33:320:33:35

-Brilliant.

-Good call, as he says, you are plus £70.

-Brilliant, thank you.

0:33:350:33:39

There's no point in depressing the Blues,

0:33:390:33:41

-so don't tell them anything, all right?

-Absolutely won't.

0:33:410:33:44

-Any idea how the Reds got on?

-No.

-None?

0:33:500:33:53

-No, blank canvas on their way out.

-Really?

0:33:530:33:56

-It's a marvellous thing, the RADA school, isn't it?

-Yes.

0:33:560:33:59

-Becky, you bought a set of sack scales.

-Yes.

-It was your pick.

0:33:590:34:02

-Yes.

-Why?!

0:34:020:34:03

Cos they're rather handsome.

0:34:030:34:05

-Are they?

-And everyone has potatoes

0:34:050:34:07

that they need to weigh at some point.

0:34:070:34:09

You paid £38.

0:34:090:34:10

The auctioneer in this agricultural area has estimated £20-£30.

0:34:100:34:14

-OK.

-So anything could happen.

0:34:140:34:16

There we go, your first item, and here it comes.

0:34:160:34:19

There we are. Again, bid me £25. Good old set of scales.

0:34:190:34:22

25 is bid there.

0:34:220:34:23

At 25 I have in. At 25 the bid, now, £25.

0:34:230:34:26

Old faithful over here.

0:34:260:34:28

25 bid, now, 25 it is for the sack scales.

0:34:280:34:30

-Anybody else have a burning use for sack scales here?

-Course they do!

0:34:300:34:33

30 there. At 30. 35.

0:34:330:34:35

40.

0:34:350:34:36

-40, 45.

-Sensational! Well done.

0:34:360:34:39

45 bid, now. £45. Right hand that is in, left is out, £45, then.

0:34:390:34:43

All done, then, at £45.

0:34:440:34:47

Go, go, Rebecca! That's so cool, £45.

0:34:470:34:52

-Plus £7.

-Not so bad!

0:34:520:34:54

OK, Catherine, now's your chance, darling.

0:34:540:34:56

Quality Art Deco period, John Round and Son Sheffield tea set.

0:34:560:35:01

Art Deco tea set, four pieces, tray, and the other pieces to join it.

0:35:010:35:06

Interest starts at 40, 45.

0:35:060:35:09

50. And 60's bid to begin.

0:35:090:35:12

Oh, we've still got a little way.

0:35:120:35:14

60. And 70.

0:35:140:35:15

And 80, on the button I'm bid at 80.

0:35:150:35:18

-And 90.

-And you're in profit!

0:35:180:35:20

That's so good!

£100 bid, now £100. Should've started here at 100.

0:35:210:35:24

Bid now at 100. 100 bid now.

0:35:240:35:27

The room is out now...

0:35:270:35:28

See, I take it all back,

0:35:280:35:30

she does know what she's doing.

0:35:300:35:31

All done, then, I shall sell at £100, then.

0:35:310:35:34

£100 equals plus £20.

0:35:340:35:38

And well done. Yes.

0:35:380:35:40

Now, the witch's hat.

0:35:400:35:41

What do you say for that? £25.

0:35:410:35:43

20 if you want it. 20 for it, surely.

0:35:430:35:45

£20, get on with it. 20?

0:35:450:35:47

20, I have a bid, my goodness me. At 20 I'm bid now, 20.

0:35:470:35:50

At 20 I'm bid now.

0:35:500:35:52

Somebody's obviously got the commode and is missing the liner.

0:35:520:35:56

At 20, bid at 20. All done, then, no more bids?

0:35:560:35:59

I shall sell, then, at £20.

0:35:590:36:00

Oh, Tony. £20 is minus £13.

0:36:000:36:03

You're now plus 14.

0:36:030:36:05

What are you going to do about the greyhound mascot?

0:36:050:36:08

We like the greyhound, don't we?

0:36:080:36:10

I think we'll go for it, cos he's nice and he's got nice musculature.

0:36:100:36:13

-We'll go for it.

-OK, fine. We're going with the bonus buy, yes?

0:36:130:36:16

That's the decision. Hope for the best.

0:36:160:36:18

15 and 20 starts it off, 20. And 5.

0:36:180:36:20

And 30's bid here, at 30 I have a bid now, 30. 30 bid.

0:36:200:36:25

35, here, 35.

0:36:250:36:26

And 40. At 40 bid now.

0:36:260:36:28

At 45 bid now, 45.

0:36:280:36:30

And 50. £50, bid at 50.

0:36:300:36:32

-One more!

-Come on!

-One more!

0:36:320:36:35

Last chance, then, I shall sell. Waiting for it, if you want it?

0:36:350:36:38

Yes or no? At £50, then.

0:36:380:36:40

Never mind!

0:36:410:36:42

£50 is minus £15. You had plus £14,

0:36:420:36:46

you're now minus £1!

0:36:460:36:48

-Yes!

-Easy come, easy go.

0:36:480:36:50

-Lovely.

-Oh, well.

0:36:530:36:54

What a lovely couple, eh?

0:36:540:36:56

In adversity, great happiness.

0:36:560:36:59

Anyway, the fact of the matter is all will be revealed in a moment,

0:36:590:37:02

and say nothing, please, to the Reds.

0:37:020:37:04

Well, this is astonishing, isn't it? Everybody's still standing up.

0:37:100:37:14

-And happy!

-Yeah.

-So happy!

0:37:140:37:16

Well it's been a very happy show, I tell you.

0:37:160:37:19

Let me reveal the results.

0:37:190:37:20

Sadly, on this programme we don't have losers any more,

0:37:200:37:23

we only have runners-up, and the runners-up today -

0:37:230:37:25

but only just - are the Blues.

0:37:250:37:26

-Aw.

-Yay, silver medal!

0:37:260:37:29

Minus £1 is just, like, so bad luck with this business.

0:37:290:37:34

-You would not be steered from taking that bonus buy, would you?

-No.

0:37:340:37:37

You had 14 smackers and then, sadly, the bonus buy didn't perform.

0:37:370:37:41

-Anyway, minus £1 is what it is.

-Yep.

-Very nice start, though.

0:37:410:37:45

-The scales.

-Yes.

-Against all predictions,

0:37:450:37:48

-this girl made a £7 profit on the sack scales.

-Very good.

0:37:480:37:51

Very good, an inspiration to the nation.

0:37:510:37:53

-LAUGHTER

-But, anyway, there we go.

0:37:530:37:55

-You had a good time?

-Great, yeah, brilliant.

-Fantastic.

0:37:550:37:58

We've loved having you on the show.

0:37:580:37:59

-But the victors today go home with £70!

-THEY CHEER

0:37:590:38:02

-Proper folding money, look at that!

-Thank you!

0:38:020:38:05

And not only do you get the £70

0:38:050:38:07

but, because you make a profit on all three items, you get...

0:38:070:38:11

ALL: Ooooh.

0:38:110:38:12

-Your golden gavel!

-Thank you!

0:38:120:38:14

One of the most coveted awards on British television these days

0:38:140:38:18

-is the golden gavel. So go for it, girl. Well done, Alison.

-Thank you.

0:38:180:38:22

-Well done, Dom-Dom, that's very good.

-Thank you very much.

0:38:220:38:25

Something for your collection, Paul.

0:38:250:38:27

Well, there we go. Isn't that marvellous?

0:38:270:38:28

Has it been a good time, Alison?

0:38:280:38:30

-It's been marvellous. Really nice.

-Dominic, a treat to meet you.

0:38:300:38:33

-Thank you. Had a lovely time.

-It's been great.

0:38:330:38:35

Well we've loved having you. and congratulations,

0:38:350:38:37

cos to get a golden gavel, to make all that profit,

0:38:370:38:39

is an achievement on this programme, I can assure you.

0:38:390:38:42

Anyway, so much fun! Join us soon for some more bargain hunting, yes?

0:38:420:38:45

ALL: Yes!
