0:00:02 > 0:00:06Today, we are in Hexham, Northumberland, a place familiar with a battle or two.

0:00:06 > 0:00:10From the Roman invasion to Viking attacks,

0:00:10 > 0:00:12to Anglo Saxon kings...

0:00:12 > 0:00:16fighting to the death, to murderous raids

0:00:16 > 0:00:19by the notorious Border Reivers.

0:00:19 > 0:00:22Surely this place has seen it all.

0:00:22 > 0:00:26The ideal location, you might say, for our Reds and Blues to do battle,

0:00:26 > 0:00:30so let's go bargain hunting, yeah!

0:00:52 > 0:00:55In 1464, the Duke of Somerset

0:00:55 > 0:00:58lost his head here in Hexham,

0:00:58 > 0:01:01literally, after suffering a crushing defeat

0:01:01 > 0:01:03in the Wars of the Roses.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06They lasted 30 years.

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Our teams only have one hour today,

0:01:09 > 0:01:12but whose head will roll?

0:01:12 > 0:01:14Who will win and who will lose?

0:01:14 > 0:01:17Let's take a sneaky peek at what's coming up.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22The Reds are reminded of exotic excursions.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26This reminds me of the Caribbean scene, the palm trees.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29Maybe that's what it is.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31- They're cheating within the Blue Team.- 925...

0:01:31 > 0:01:33You heard what I said.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37Honestly, she is so competitive, isn't she?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40And everyone is having palpitations at the auction.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Before that, let's meet the teams.

0:01:45 > 0:01:49All's fair in love and war, as they say,

0:01:49 > 0:01:53and there's certainly plenty of love around in this room today.

0:01:53 > 0:01:58For the Reds, we have married couple Lynn and Ernie,

0:01:58 > 0:02:01and for the Blues, partners Ken and Linda.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03- Hello, everyone. - ALL: Hello!

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Love was in the air, literally, when you two met.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Yes, it was. It was.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11I was called up for a flight, I work for a major airline.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14- And what do you do for them?- I'm actually cabin crew manager for them.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16And then everything went wrong,

0:02:16 > 0:02:20and I ended up spending the night longer than what I should have done.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22And... Ernie was in the American Air Force,

0:02:22 > 0:02:25and he was staying in the same hotel.

0:02:25 > 0:02:26It was love at first sight.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29So you've had a fair few celebrities on board and had to look after them?

0:02:29 > 0:02:31- Yes, I did.- Any favourites?

0:02:31 > 0:02:34My favourite is definitely Prince William and Kate.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37- I brought them back from their holidays.- Did you?- Yes.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39And they are very lovely.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Ernie, you've met your fair share of celebrities, too.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46I certainly have, Tim. I work at the private jet terminal...

0:02:46 > 0:02:48at North East airport,

0:02:48 > 0:02:52and...everybody who is anybody comes through.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55Footballers...

0:02:55 > 0:02:56musicians.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00We've had everyone through from Dolly Parton to Queen, recently.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04You were in the American Air Force, so tell us what you did in the force?

0:03:04 > 0:03:07I was an aircraft loadmaster for 20 years,

0:03:07 > 0:03:12and I flew in the working end of cargo aircraft...

0:03:12 > 0:03:16and got to visit many parts of the world. So it was quite enjoyable.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19Well, brilliant. Now, I'll give you your dosh in a moment,

0:03:19 > 0:03:20but very, very, very good luck.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Thank you.- Thank you.- Excellent. Now, Blues.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26It says here that you waited over 40 years before you finally got

0:03:26 > 0:03:30- properly together. Is that true, Ken?- Yes, that's true.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33What happened, then? Were you a late developer?

0:03:33 > 0:03:34THEY LAUGH

0:03:34 > 0:03:38- We met at school...- Yes. - ..and we went out for a short time.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42We were only very young, and then we just went our separate ways.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46And I found out, after being divorced,

0:03:46 > 0:03:49that Linda had lost her husband.

0:03:49 > 0:03:50And I knew him too,

0:03:50 > 0:03:55and I wrote to her and basically just said how sorry I was

0:03:55 > 0:03:57- and would she like to meet up for lunch...- Yeah.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00..so we could talk about old times. And...

0:04:00 > 0:04:02- Thereby lies the tail.- Isn't that... - Here we are today.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05Now, because of the job that you do,

0:04:05 > 0:04:08you also have exposure to celebrities.

0:04:08 > 0:04:12Very much so. I have done since I was a youngster.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16In my hometown of Morecambe, we had three really vibrant venues

0:04:16 > 0:04:20where all the '60s pop groups would come, so I met The Beatles,

0:04:20 > 0:04:24The Rolling Stones, The Who, everybody, basically...

0:04:24 > 0:04:27- Gosh.- ..from that time.- And what business are you in?- Autographs and memorabilia.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31How many autographs have you got in your portfolio currently?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34In my own personal collection, I've probably got over 15-16,000.

0:04:34 > 0:04:36- Have you really?!- Yes.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38And I've probably got, in my business stock,

0:04:38 > 0:04:40touching up to 20,000.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43- Now, Linda, you're a whizz with the hair dos...- Well.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47Well, I'd like to think so, yes. I run the family business.

0:04:47 > 0:04:52But I was coordinator for Team GB, the hairdressing team,

0:04:52 > 0:04:53for quite a few years.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56And is there a particular part of ladies hairdressing which you

0:04:56 > 0:04:58- enjoy most?- Um...

0:04:58 > 0:05:00- No, all of it.- Do you?

0:05:00 > 0:05:04You know, a lady walks in, and I create something that gives her a smile,

0:05:04 > 0:05:06then that is still a great buzz.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09What sort of tactics have you got today, you two?

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Basically, look for something interesting and quirky.

0:05:11 > 0:05:14- And you are going to go for... - Oh, sparkly and shiny.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17Are you? Anyway, here is your £300. £300 apiece.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go,

0:05:20 > 0:05:22and very, very, very good luck.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25Gosh! Such interesting teams.

0:05:28 > 0:05:32Taking charge of the Red Team today is Anita Manning. Wow!

0:05:34 > 0:05:36And on-call to help the Blues is David Harper.

0:05:36 > 0:05:38Uh, hello?

0:05:44 > 0:05:48So what do you two lovers want to buy? Have you got the same taste?

0:05:48 > 0:05:51Not really, no.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Lynn has a good eye for things.

0:05:53 > 0:05:56- You like the sparkly things... - I like sparkly things.- ..don't you?

0:05:56 > 0:06:00And I was hoping maybe a little bit... If we could find something military related.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04- What are we going to buy, Linda?- Oh. - Stop, we are talking!

0:06:04 > 0:06:08- Don't start yet, your time hasn't started.- I can't help but look.

0:06:08 > 0:06:12Right, teams, your 60 minutes starts now.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14- We've got an hour of quirkiness. Ready?- Fabulous.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Like a moth to a flame, Lynn heads straight to the jewellery.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28- She's off to the sparkly stuff already.- Straight away. Straight away.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34Nice, interesting silver and watches.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38- You are a pair of magpies, aren't you?- Just a little bit, yes.- OK.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44Those are quite nice, those are quite nice.

0:06:44 > 0:06:47- What are they?- Earrings!

0:06:47 > 0:06:50THEY LAUGH

0:06:50 > 0:06:52Oh, yes, I can see now.

0:06:52 > 0:06:54Might be worth keeping those glasses on, Ernie.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00I love it when stalls have £20 per item,

0:07:00 > 0:07:05it just makes life so simple. Doesn't it make it so simple?

0:07:05 > 0:07:07I mean, look at that.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Is that 20 quid?- Can't see...

0:07:10 > 0:07:12Is it hallmarked?

0:07:12 > 0:07:14It is.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17- And for £20, that's amazing. - It is amazing.

0:07:17 > 0:07:22It is...not a British hallmark, it must be an import mark, so 925.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24Could be American or continental.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27Missing its back, but I don't... I don't know whether it is for us.

0:07:27 > 0:07:29It is not getting me excited. But 20 quid...

0:07:29 > 0:07:31- It is something worth looking at. - Yeah.

0:07:34 > 0:07:38For Lynn, the only items worth looking at are ones that sparkle.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41But aren't you missing something?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Oh, I've lost my husband. Oh, oh, oh.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46- I'll come back to you.- Yeah. - Thank you.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49At least the Blues have managed to stay together,

0:07:49 > 0:07:52and Linda's mind has turned to drink.

0:07:52 > 0:07:54I think it's if you love wine.

0:07:54 > 0:07:56- I love wine too.- I like wine.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58The most important thing with this is to know

0:07:58 > 0:08:01whether that top is silver or not.

0:08:01 > 0:08:03So we do have some marks there, Linda.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Is that a silver mark?

0:08:06 > 0:08:10No, I would probably say that was more likely to be EPNS.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13OK. People have bought these things for big money,

0:08:13 > 0:08:15thinking that's solid silver, because that would be

0:08:15 > 0:08:19a crystal bulb base, solid silver,

0:08:19 > 0:08:21and it is worth £800.

0:08:21 > 0:08:25- But as it is, it is a poor man's version of that.- Yeah.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28- And it's 50 quid, and it is absolute bang right.- Yeah.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30But put it into auction, and I think it is 20.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33It is £20-£50. It's the money. You're not going to make any profit.

0:08:33 > 0:08:35Come on, then, put it down, let's go find...

0:08:35 > 0:08:39Time is running on, and neither team have bought anything yet.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41Back with the Reds, Anita is desperately trying to drag

0:08:41 > 0:08:44Lynn away from the jewels.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47I think you might need reinforcements, Anita.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50- ..bags of style.- STALLHOLDER:- It has. Lots of character.- Have you seen something?

0:08:50 > 0:08:54- Yeah, I've seen some stuff.- Oh!- Oh! - Come on, let's have a look.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56You guys are hot today!

0:08:56 > 0:08:57Come on.

0:09:03 > 0:09:07It seems the former aviator has winged his way to some

0:09:07 > 0:09:11- aviation magazines.- These are in really good condition, are they?

0:09:11 > 0:09:15- 1934.- Anita, what do you think on these, look?

0:09:17 > 0:09:20Three pamphlets in a foreign language...

0:09:20 > 0:09:22THEY LAUGH

0:09:22 > 0:09:23..to sell in Carlisle.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25THEY LAUGH

0:09:25 > 0:09:29- What do you think?- Well, that would be one of our items and I think it's a little small,

0:09:29 > 0:09:33- I think we would need something a bit...- To bulk it up.- Yeah.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Yeah, I think that's a no to the magazines, team.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39You're 15 minutes in, but it looks like Anita has spotted

0:09:39 > 0:09:43- something else that might take your fancy.- What's that, Anita?

0:09:43 > 0:09:46It's a writing set. You've got the...

0:09:46 > 0:09:48- letter opener here.- Oh, yeah.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51- You've got the seal...- Oh...- ..to seal your letters.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- With wax?- Uh-huh. All right.

0:09:55 > 0:09:58And you've got your pen here.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Oh, I like it.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02I think it's just a charming object.

0:10:02 > 0:10:05It's stylish, just like you.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09I think it is very stylish, Anita. I think it is lovely.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- What's he asking for that?- 85.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Can you do that for 50, 60?

0:10:14 > 0:10:17Tight on that. It would be about 65.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21- 65.- How about 62?

0:10:21 > 0:10:23Yeah, OK.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26Good haggling, Ernie. Every pound helps.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29So, Reds, you've finally taken off and made your first purchase.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32- Well done, guys. - Well, thanks for spotting that.

0:10:36 > 0:10:41Back with the Blues, and David has spotted something a bit more down to earth.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45- Linda, do you like it?- I love it. - Well, let's have a look at it then.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49So it's something, I suppose, could be described as being scratch made,

0:10:49 > 0:10:52so it hasn't been made from a kit.

0:10:52 > 0:10:56- Look at the way it has been pinned together. It is rather nice, isn't it?- Yeah.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58- It is very well made.- It is. - Lovingly made.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02- So where is the market for that? - It has to be for display reasons.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Or you could display flowers in it. - Yes.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08It could be in the delicatessens full of lovely foods.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10- Fruit.- Fruit.

0:11:10 > 0:11:14- The horsey market.- Yeah. - Always a very strong market.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17People who like horses like anything to do with horses.

0:11:17 > 0:11:21- But it's got £80 on it. - And what are your thoughts?

0:11:21 > 0:11:24- I think if we could get it for 60. - So, at the right money,

0:11:24 > 0:11:26- would you have a go at it?- Yes. - Yes, I think so.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29'What does our shy stallholder think?'

0:11:29 > 0:11:31- £70.- 70.

0:11:31 > 0:11:35- Really, is that it?- The smiley Lancashire lady, 65.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- Oh!- Come on.- 65, and that's it, definitely.- Thank you.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41Well, you've done a deal. Shake the man's hand.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Well done, Linda, that lovely smile of yours

0:11:43 > 0:11:47got you another £5 off, and you've secured your first buy.

0:11:47 > 0:11:51- Well, we've got the cart, all we need now is the horse.- Yeah. - HE LAUGHS

0:11:51 > 0:11:53- A very small horse.- A very small horse.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56Well, there's no time for horsing about, that's for a fact.

0:11:56 > 0:12:00You still have two more items to buy, and time's galloping away.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03Can I have a little look at that, please?

0:12:03 > 0:12:08Back with the Reds, and Lynn's at it again with that sparkly stuff.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10This time she's spotted a silver box.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13- Oh.- Isn't that pretty?- Oh!

0:12:13 > 0:12:17It may be pretty, but what does Anita's expert eye make of it?

0:12:18 > 0:12:22In Georgian times, the ladies wore little patches on their skin,

0:12:22 > 0:12:25you know, to enhance their beauty.

0:12:25 > 0:12:30And this is a little box that they may have used for that.

0:12:30 > 0:12:34There's no mark to indicate that it's silver.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37It does say "Denmark" on there.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39It's a bit hard,

0:12:39 > 0:12:42and I would expect, if it was silver, for it to

0:12:42 > 0:12:47give a little bit. And the scene, a tropical landscape here,

0:12:47 > 0:12:49with palm trees.

0:12:49 > 0:12:51It is quite a nice little box.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55Having travelled the world, I like the scene on there.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59Have you guys been to all sorts of exotic tropical...

0:12:59 > 0:13:01- Yeah.- Yeah.- ..islands?- Yeah.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03Is it as good as it looks?

0:13:03 > 0:13:06The Caribbean is wonderful, I love the Caribbean.

0:13:06 > 0:13:09So this reminds me of the Caribbean scene, the palm trees and everything.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Maybe that's what it is.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13I was drawn to the Caribbean.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15- It brought back happy times.- Yeah.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17There might be more happy times ahead

0:13:17 > 0:13:21if you are able to negotiate on that £24 ticket price.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28The Blues also have their eye on a silver box that they hope

0:13:28 > 0:13:31will appeal to the horsey market.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33I do hope they don't come a cropper.

0:13:33 > 0:13:34- The horseshoe...- Yeah.- ..thinking

0:13:34 > 0:13:36of what we were talking about before,

0:13:36 > 0:13:37the horsey set and things like that.

0:13:37 > 0:13:41I've no idea what it is, other than probably a

0:13:41 > 0:13:42snuffbox maybe.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Can you see a mark?

0:13:44 > 0:13:46No, that's enough time.

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Ken, you need to go see if you can see a mark.

0:13:49 > 0:13:54Two points to you, Linda...for spotting it is actually a box. No? OK.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56It is not a British one, but it is silver for certain,

0:13:56 > 0:13:57you can feel silver.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00And if you just look very carefully,

0:14:00 > 0:14:01right into the machined bottom there...

0:14:01 > 0:14:03- Yes, it is.- ..you've got a little mark.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06Right in the middle. Can you see that, Ken? Can you see what it says?

0:14:06 > 0:14:07No, I can't.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10- Ken, I'll give you... - HE WHISPERS:- 925.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12- Can you see what it says there, Ken? - 925.- It says 925.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- You heard what I said. Honestly. - SHE LAUGHS

0:14:15 > 0:14:17She is so competitive, isn't she?

0:14:17 > 0:14:20- Like an echo.- I found it!

0:14:20 > 0:14:24- What an opportunity I gave you there to perform.- I know.- 925.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26So it is silver, but it is continental,

0:14:26 > 0:14:28but it's of the same standard as British hallmark silver.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31- I do like it.- How much is it?- 52.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36- I think that is rather... - What do you feel?- I feel...

0:14:36 > 0:14:38What's your best price?

0:14:39 > 0:14:4145.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Would you do 35 for it?- No.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47You wouldn't do, middle for diddle, 40 for...

0:14:48 > 0:14:5043.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53- 42?- No.- 43.- 43.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55Oh, you drive a hard bargain, Linda.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58Well done, team, that's two items bought.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02And the Reds are doing well too,

0:15:02 > 0:15:06having negotiated their box down from 24 to just £10.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09- £10, Anita.- What do you think, Anita?

0:15:09 > 0:15:13- I think you couldn't get any better than that, darling.- Oh, I think it's perfect.

0:15:13 > 0:15:16Shake on that before he changes his mind.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Thank you. Thanks very much.- Thanks very much.- That's fantastic.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23- OK.- Second one down, Anita. - I think we're on a run now.

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Both of our teams have bagged their first two buys,

0:15:26 > 0:15:28but time is passing quickly.

0:15:28 > 0:15:30And they still have one more to go.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Let's leave them shopping while I'll show you something cheesy

0:15:33 > 0:15:35I've found here in Hexham.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Isn't this a handsome object?

0:15:38 > 0:15:42This is a typical piece of mid-19th century ceramics.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45It is made of stoneware. It's bulletproof, it is

0:15:45 > 0:15:49incredibly tough. It was mass produced somewhere in Staffordshire.

0:15:49 > 0:15:54This particular colourway, being done brown, has been

0:15:54 > 0:15:57covered in some Wedgwood lookalike

0:15:57 > 0:15:59Jasper prunts.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02This time with a continuous scene of

0:16:02 > 0:16:05classically draped maidens.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08It is, of course, designed to hold

0:16:08 > 0:16:10a truckle of cheese.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15And funnily enough, I just happen to have here

0:16:15 > 0:16:18a truckle of cheese.

0:16:18 > 0:16:22Delicious Northumbrian Cheese Company cheese,

0:16:22 > 0:16:25coated in a linen outer.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28This has been especially matured.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30It is a local cheese, it is called Reiver.

0:16:30 > 0:16:33It's full fat, hard cheese.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36I've decapitated the top, look,

0:16:36 > 0:16:38and my mouth is watering.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Mmm! Delicious!

0:16:41 > 0:16:46So, I've discovered two appropriate serving utensils.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49This is what is called a cheese scoop.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52It is made of solid silver, it is Georgian, it is

0:16:52 > 0:16:55hallmarked in London, in 1810.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58It has got a bone or ivory handle, and its purpose is to

0:16:58 > 0:17:02dig into the middle of a cheese, probably a Stilton.

0:17:04 > 0:17:08The next-door cheese scoop is a development of the first.

0:17:08 > 0:17:13Slightly different shaped bowl, look. More like a spade.

0:17:13 > 0:17:17It was hallmarked in Birmingham, in 1824,

0:17:17 > 0:17:22and it has the additional development of a pusher arm.

0:17:23 > 0:17:27Right, so let's have a go, shall we, and see whether it works?

0:17:28 > 0:17:29Oh, yes.

0:17:31 > 0:17:33Now, you can see that because this isn't a Stilton,

0:17:33 > 0:17:36it hasn't taken a perfect piece out.

0:17:36 > 0:17:40But the cheese it has taken out is stuck to the scoop.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Let's have an experiment and see

0:17:42 > 0:17:45if the Georgian scoop with the pusher does any better.

0:17:47 > 0:17:49Oh! Look at that.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51Perfectly delivered.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54So what's all this lot going to cost us?

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Well...the stoneware cheese dish and cover

0:17:57 > 0:18:00could be yours for £58.

0:18:00 > 0:18:05The Georgian cheese scoop with the pusher could be yours for £220.

0:18:05 > 0:18:10The Georgian cheese scoop with no pusher could be yours for £100.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12And as to the cheese itself,

0:18:12 > 0:18:15you could pick that up for £42.50.

0:18:15 > 0:18:16HE LAUGHS

0:18:16 > 0:18:18Isn't that ridiculous?

0:18:18 > 0:18:22A lump of cheese costs nearly as much as the cheese dish

0:18:22 > 0:18:24and cover itself.

0:18:24 > 0:18:25But...

0:18:25 > 0:18:27mmm, it is delicious.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33Back with our tasty teams, and both have one more item to go.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36The girls have definitely got some of the sparkle they were after,

0:18:36 > 0:18:38but can the blokes get a look in?

0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Just probably repros, aren't they? - Yeah.

0:18:41 > 0:18:44You've got to be so careful with these things. I mean,

0:18:44 > 0:18:48it does look like a piece of the nice trench art.

0:18:48 > 0:18:52Brought back from the First World War, later mounted with

0:18:52 > 0:18:56a clock face, and then there we have the regimental coat of arms.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00It is a bit tricky, because there are lots of repros out there,

0:19:00 > 0:19:03and that patination, to me, doesn't feel quite right.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07If it doesn't feel right, move on. Time is ticking.

0:19:07 > 0:19:11- So would that have been on, what, a Lancaster?- Any bomber.- Any bomber?

0:19:11 > 0:19:14The Reds have also found some militaria.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16- ..air ministry.- Yes, mm-hm.

0:19:16 > 0:19:21Is that the type of thing that presses your buttons, Ernie?

0:19:21 > 0:19:23- Yeah.- I mean, it looks like a big torch to me.

0:19:23 > 0:19:24ERNIE LAUGHS

0:19:24 > 0:19:26How old is this? STALLHOLDER: 1940s.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29- 1940s. What would you do with it? - So that would be Second World War.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Navigation aid for bombers.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34What sort of a price is on this?

0:19:34 > 0:19:36I had 75, I can do it for 55...

0:19:36 > 0:19:38Wow.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45And Ken has spotted something similar himself.

0:19:45 > 0:19:46Item, David.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Ah, now, OK.

0:19:51 > 0:19:55- Gosh, what's that?- OK. Now that is militaria...

0:19:55 > 0:19:56through and through.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Obviously an instrument of some sort.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01- And look at the date.- 1942.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04Bang on, right in the middle, literally,

0:20:04 > 0:20:06of the Second World War.

0:20:06 > 0:20:10And David is detecting there could be a profit on this in the auction.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14This is quite interesting because you know where we are going to

0:20:14 > 0:20:17- be selling our objects.- Yeah. - With Paul Laidlaw.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19He is an anorak in this area,

0:20:19 > 0:20:22so this is us actually being quite clever by accident.

0:20:23 > 0:20:28But the Blues are not the only ones planning strategically for the auction.

0:20:28 > 0:20:32To take military to this auction would be tactically

0:20:32 > 0:20:35- a good thing to do.- I like it.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- You like it?- I think we should...

0:20:37 > 0:20:39- Look, he's getting excited. Are you excited?- I am...

0:20:39 > 0:20:42Are you excited?

0:20:42 > 0:20:45- Is this glamorous enough for you? - What did you say your best price was?

0:20:45 > 0:20:49- 55 would be the best.- Can you not go down, just a tiny smidgen?- I'd love to.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51STALLHOLDER: 35.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53- 35.- Oh, come on.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56- What's happening here? Do you know what he's doing?- He should...

0:20:56 > 0:20:59What's going on here? It's the battle of the negotiators.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02- 52.- No, I'm losing money. - Oh, you're not.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06- I am. You've got it for what I paid for it.- £30, go on, then.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08- Happy?- 28, we'd be ecstatic.

0:21:08 > 0:21:09STALLHOLDER: No, not 28.

0:21:09 > 0:21:13I think that you've got to shake that man's hand before he changes his mind.

0:21:13 > 0:21:17- Have we done it?- Yes.- We've done it. Thank you.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20- You've got to give him a wee kiss. - Oh, I'll give you a hug.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22THEY LAUGH

0:21:22 > 0:21:25Well, a bit of flirting never hurt anyone. Well done, teams.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31Take cover, teams, your time is up.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35- I think we've done well. - I think we've done all right.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Come on, girls, let's go get a cup of tea.- Oh!

0:21:38 > 0:21:42You have been done the Bargain Hunt way, marvellous. Tea time.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45Let's check out what the Red Team bought, eh.

0:21:45 > 0:21:46Yes, sir.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48Their first buy was this stylish desk set,

0:21:48 > 0:21:51which cost them £62.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Next up was the Danish snuffbox,

0:21:53 > 0:21:57which cost them just £10. And they are hoping they can pilot

0:21:57 > 0:22:00themselves to a profit with this Second World War compass,

0:22:00 > 0:22:02bought for £55.

0:22:02 > 0:22:07- You've been flying around. You did very well and had a lovely time. - Yeah, we did.

0:22:07 > 0:22:10Now just tell us about your dreams. What is your favourite piece?

0:22:10 > 0:22:13My favourite piece, I think, is the pen set.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16- Do you agree with that, Ernest? - It is, yes, I agree, it was really

0:22:16 > 0:22:19unusual, and we like it a lot.

0:22:19 > 0:22:21And will the pen set bring the biggest profit?

0:22:21 > 0:22:24- I don't...- No.- ..think it will. - What will?- I don't think so.

0:22:24 > 0:22:28I think it will be the...

0:22:28 > 0:22:32- the compass that we bought.- Oh, you think the compass. I think the silver box might.- Do you?

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Yes, might make the most.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37- OK, split decision. - THEY LAUGH

0:22:37 > 0:22:41- And you spent how much?- We spent £127.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43127.

0:22:43 > 0:22:47- So what do I want? I want 173.- Yep.

0:22:47 > 0:22:52Thank you very much, 173, which is going to go straight over to Anita,

0:22:52 > 0:22:55- who is always very happy to take the cash.- Yes. - THEY LAUGH

0:22:55 > 0:22:59- But what are you going to buy, Anita?- Well, this pair are such

0:22:59 > 0:23:01a glamorous couple.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05I want to buy something glamorous, but I want to buy something kind of

0:23:05 > 0:23:07girlie and glamorous. Is that all right?

0:23:07 > 0:23:10- That is perfectly fine.- That is the right answer...

0:23:10 > 0:23:12THEY LAUGH

0:23:12 > 0:23:14- And said earnestly. - THEY LAUGH

0:23:14 > 0:23:18Good luck with that. Meanwhile, we are going to check out what the Blue Team bought, aren't we?

0:23:18 > 0:23:21Ken and Linda put the cart before the horse,

0:23:21 > 0:23:25paying £65 for this wooden wagon.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27And next came the horse, ha!

0:23:27 > 0:23:30Or at least the riding whip on this silver box,

0:23:30 > 0:23:32bought for £43.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35And they also detected a possible profit with this military meter.

0:23:35 > 0:23:37Price paid, £30.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40- Cracking stuff that was, wasn't it? - It was great, yes.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43- How much did you spend altogether? - £138.

0:23:43 > 0:23:44That's not so great, really,

0:23:44 > 0:23:48but nevertheless I would like £162 of leftover lolly, please.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50- You really do want it? - I really do want it.- OK.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Now, which is your favourite piece?

0:23:52 > 0:23:56Oh, for me, the little silver pillbox, I loved it, absolutely loved it.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59- It is the sort of thing you want to keep for yourself? - I want to take it home.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02It is a tragedy because you can't. Ken, what is your favourite?

0:24:02 > 0:24:06- The little military piece, the detonating box.- OK, fine.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09- You always were a bit explosive. - I was. - THEY LAUGH

0:24:09 > 0:24:13And which piece is going to bring the biggest profit?

0:24:13 > 0:24:17- The detonator.- I'm hoping that might just.- OK, fine.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19Because it is a quirky sort of item,

0:24:19 > 0:24:21- militaria.- Yes. Yes, exactly.

0:24:21 > 0:24:24Well, you never can tell what's going to blow up, can you, David?

0:24:24 > 0:24:25THEY LAUGH

0:24:25 > 0:24:28As we know. We've had a few moments. There you go, boy.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30- Thank you. - What sort of thing might you go for?

0:24:30 > 0:24:34I've seen two objects, but we know in this business that if

0:24:34 > 0:24:37you don't buy them immediately, they may not well be there, so I'm going to dash.

0:24:37 > 0:24:40The one thing I do have in mind is something that I love,

0:24:40 > 0:24:45but I fear you two are going to absolutely hate it. Oh, thanks(!)

0:24:45 > 0:24:48- That's very k...- But that's the kind of guy I am.- That's very kind(!)

0:24:48 > 0:24:50Well, that's a terrific tease, that's all I can say.

0:24:50 > 0:24:53I can't wait to see what you go off and buy, actually. OK, fine.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55- Us, too.- Well...

0:24:55 > 0:24:58On that happy note, you shove off and do what you do,

0:24:58 > 0:25:01and we will shove off very shortly to the auction. Thank you.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22We've come from Hexham to Carlisle, to Paul Laidlaw's saleroom.

0:25:22 > 0:25:24And it's very, very, very nice to be here, Paul.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27- Thank you for coming, Tim. - Thank you for having us.

0:25:27 > 0:25:32Now, for the Reds, they have got a great group of objects, I think.

0:25:32 > 0:25:38- The cased gilt metal desk set is just amazing, really.- I love it. - Of its type.

0:25:38 > 0:25:43Yep. Those aren't just generic belts and claw buckles.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Those are saddlery straps

0:25:45 > 0:25:48and of course the desk seal itself modelled as a stirrup.

0:25:48 > 0:25:50If you put your bravest hat on,

0:25:50 > 0:25:53- I suppose you might see that making £100.- Yeah.

0:25:53 > 0:25:57If you have got two passionate, horsey people after it.

0:25:57 > 0:26:00What is your normal, cautious, middle ground, then?

0:26:00 > 0:26:02I have gone in at £40-£60.

0:26:02 > 0:26:07Anita, I think, felt the same way, cos she went strongly in for this at £62.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11- And there is a very fair chance that she will get her £62 back en plus. - Absolutely.

0:26:11 > 0:26:17Next is the electroplated little snuffbox or whatever it is.

0:26:17 > 0:26:21It's this juxtaposition of Danish manufacture

0:26:21 > 0:26:25and then frankly exotic subject matter. There is quality there.

0:26:25 > 0:26:28In fact, to be honest with you, when I first picked it up I thought,

0:26:28 > 0:26:29"This is surely silver."

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Yes, me too. But it isn't. It's plate.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33- It is a mystery.- What is it worth?

0:26:33 > 0:26:38Look, I've gone in £10-£20 because it is just a little electroplated box

0:26:38 > 0:26:42and I think it is this electroplate that will seal its fate.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44- £10 was paid, so that's OK. - Good buy.

0:26:44 > 0:26:47So, you know, your estimate is absolutely spot on.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49But just in case we lose our way,

0:26:49 > 0:26:53we have got the astrocompass, military issue to guide us.

0:26:55 > 0:26:56Is that common or garden thing?

0:26:56 > 0:27:01- Sadly it is.- Oh. - These turn up a lot.- Do they?

0:27:01 > 0:27:05And if this is your field, instruments and/or military,

0:27:05 > 0:27:09- you have seen them all before. You can buy these for £30-£50.- Can you?

0:27:09 > 0:27:12Well, £55 was paid for this. Maybe we will get lucky.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15- I will be pushing in that direction.- I am sure you will.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17As we have known you to do in the past.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20So anyway, in case it doesn't all go to plan though,

0:27:20 > 0:27:23they may need their bonus buy so let's go and have a look.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27- So Lynne, Ernest, this is exciting, isn't it?- Yes.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31You gave Anita £173 of leftover lolly and she has been out

0:27:31 > 0:27:34- and invested, haven't you, Anita? - Yes.- But in what?

0:27:34 > 0:27:39- Well, I wanted to buy something girlie for us. Sorry, Ernest. - That's all right, that's all right.

0:27:39 > 0:27:45- So what I bought for you is a little pendant.- Oh, wow.

0:27:45 > 0:27:52Which has a spider sitting on a finely spun golden web.

0:27:53 > 0:27:57And the abdomen is a piece of Cabochon turquoise.

0:27:57 > 0:28:00And we have this little pearl for its head.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03- How much did you pay for it?- Lovely. - Quite a lot of money.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06Well, you had a lot so...

0:28:06 > 0:28:10It did capture my imagination and I spent £150 on it.

0:28:10 > 0:28:11I think it's gorgeous.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14- I think it's lovely, though. - The big important question is,

0:28:14 > 0:28:18- how much do you think it might make today?- We could lose a little.

0:28:18 > 0:28:21- But we could make a little as well. So...- Happy with that?- Yes.

0:28:21 > 0:28:23- Very good.- Very happy. - Thank you, Anita.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Right now though, for the audience at home,

0:28:25 > 0:28:30let's find out whether the auctioneer likes Anita's pendant.

0:28:30 > 0:28:32- I really like that, Tim. - You do?

0:28:32 > 0:28:34Thankfully I am not in the market for pendant

0:28:34 > 0:28:36necklaces at the moment, but I think that is a great thing

0:28:36 > 0:28:39and I think others will think so, too.

0:28:39 > 0:28:41Poor Mrs Laidlaw, it's what she always really wanted,

0:28:41 > 0:28:43was to be caught in a spider's web.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46I like the turquoise, don't you? It's a good colour scheme there.

0:28:46 > 0:28:47Absolutely.

0:28:47 > 0:28:52Prices are as widely spread as the auctioneer's descriptions.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55I don't think many people know exactly what these are.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57Whether they are truly antique or more modern pieces.

0:28:57 > 0:29:01And indeed the results under the hammer vary wildly

0:29:01 > 0:29:06- and on a good day, that is worth £120, £130, £140.- Yeah, yeah.

0:29:06 > 0:29:11- Though not many make that. Most of them fall £50-£80.- Do they?

0:29:11 > 0:29:13- Yes, and that is where I have pitched it.- OK.

0:29:13 > 0:29:17£50-£80, Anita unfortunately has gone in there at the top whack,

0:29:17 > 0:29:24- she has gone in there at £150. So it will slightly depend on the day, today, won't it?- Yes.

0:29:24 > 0:29:28Next are the Blues and the first item for them is the dogcart.

0:29:28 > 0:29:30I think it is fantastic.

0:29:30 > 0:29:32Good workmanship, good condition,

0:29:32 > 0:29:36- charm by the bucket-load. It's not for me, but I love it. - How much?

0:29:36 > 0:29:40- £50-£100.- Fantastic spread of an estimated there.- It is.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43That is an auctioneer's estimate if ever I heard one.

0:29:43 > 0:29:45This is a man who his hedging his bets.

0:29:45 > 0:29:48£65 was paid so they are at the bottom end of your spread

0:29:48 > 0:29:52- and with any luck they will make a profit. How exciting.- Yes.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54Next is a little silver box, another silver box

0:29:54 > 0:29:58but completely different to the Danish one. How old is it?

0:29:58 > 0:30:03It's not old. Late 20th century. High-end retail.

0:30:06 > 0:30:11But it is not for me. It is a bit blingy, I think, and I fear others may agree.

0:30:11 > 0:30:15Oh, dear. So, at that then, you've pitched it at how much?

0:30:15 > 0:30:17Lean. £20-£40.

0:30:17 > 0:30:22OK. £43 paid. Lastly, an oddball looking box with some terminals on the top.

0:30:22 > 0:30:26- You tell us about that, Paul. - This isn't exciting.- Isn't?

0:30:26 > 0:30:30It isn't exciting. It is essentially a galvanometer.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32It measures current.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35This would be in the tool box of every relay technician

0:30:35 > 0:30:42and signallers' kitbag for testing. General-purpose testing.

0:30:42 > 0:30:47Circuitry, battery functions, line testing. It is your little,

0:30:47 > 0:30:50not quite your avometer but you know what I'm saying.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52It's your general-purpose test meter of the 1940s.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54Oh, dear. What is it worth?

0:30:54 > 0:30:57- Look, £15-£25.- OK. They paid £30.

0:30:57 > 0:31:00So it is not all the world

0:31:00 > 0:31:03but if you add up the loss on the silver box, potentially,

0:31:03 > 0:31:05and the loss, potentially, on the metre,

0:31:05 > 0:31:08they might need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.

0:31:08 > 0:31:12- Are you happy about this, Linda?- Oh, yeah, can't wait.- I can't wait either.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14- LAUGHTER - I mean, it's so exciting, isn't it?

0:31:14 > 0:31:17- £162 of leftover lolly is a lot of money to go to David Harper.- I know.

0:31:17 > 0:31:20- And he does love to blow the lot. - We thought we'd give him a treat.

0:31:20 > 0:31:23Yes, exactly. Give him a cheap thrill.

0:31:23 > 0:31:25OK, Dave. Show us what you spent the £162 on.

0:31:25 > 0:31:29- OK, Linda, I'm going to give you a treat.- Oh, really?- Would you mind?

0:31:29 > 0:31:35- It looks like a football. That is ridiculous!- Ridiculous.

0:31:35 > 0:31:39- Where have I seen that face before? - Gosh.

0:31:39 > 0:31:43The more I see this thing, the more I really dislike... No, yeah.

0:31:43 > 0:31:46- Love it. Love it.- Can you tell us something about it, please, David?

0:31:46 > 0:31:48It is tribal African.

0:31:48 > 0:31:51It's obviously a baboon, one of the biggest monkeys,

0:31:51 > 0:31:54a very powerful, strong, quite a symbolic creature.

0:31:54 > 0:31:57And I think it's got a modern look. What would you pay for it?

0:31:57 > 0:32:02- £45, £65.- OK. Good one. £40.- Right.- Good.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05- 40 quid.- And what would you think it would make?

0:32:05 > 0:32:08It is one of those things that I love in an auction

0:32:08 > 0:32:11- because you can't actually value it. - OK.- I think it is £40 or £50.

0:32:11 > 0:32:13If it made £100 I wouldn't be surprised.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16Equally, if it didn't get a bit I wouldn't be surprised.

0:32:16 > 0:32:18But they're the objects and love for auction.

0:32:18 > 0:32:20Why don't we, for the audience at home,

0:32:20 > 0:32:21at least find out

0:32:21 > 0:32:25what the auctioneer thinks about David's African mask.

0:32:25 > 0:32:29So give us the gen, then, Paul. Single lump, isn't it?

0:32:29 > 0:32:33Look, I like these but I know what they are.

0:32:33 > 0:32:39And what they are, are relatively mass-produced for export,

0:32:39 > 0:32:43and modern pieces made to look older.

0:32:43 > 0:32:48- Is that what we used to call airport art?- It quite definitely is.- Yes.

0:32:49 > 0:32:52But it has integrity, insofar as

0:32:52 > 0:32:57that guy sitting wherever he is carving these things away

0:32:57 > 0:33:00is working to designs that his ancestors used and using

0:33:00 > 0:33:05skills that were probably passed down father to son for generations.

0:33:05 > 0:33:09And in that regard, I rate them. They are not fantasy pieces.

0:33:09 > 0:33:13- There is a heritage to them. - So, how much then?- £20-£40.- Really?

0:33:13 > 0:33:17Well, you have mentioned the 40 word because that is where it comes from.

0:33:17 > 0:33:22- £40 is what was paid by David. And he rates it.- Yes.

0:33:22 > 0:33:27The big thing is, is it going to hit the right note, do you think, here in Carlisle?

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Well, it is not about Carlisle when you are on the internet.

0:33:30 > 0:33:33- The world is your audience, isn't it?- And that is the correct answer.

0:33:33 > 0:33:34And on that happy note,

0:33:34 > 0:33:37we will look forward to the auction starting in a moment.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39Thank you very much, Paul.

0:33:41 > 0:33:42£40, well done, sir.

0:33:42 > 0:33:4532, 50 then.

0:33:47 > 0:33:51- This is pretty exciting, isn't it? - Very exciting.- So far, yes.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53- Your first auction, isn't it? - Your first?

0:33:53 > 0:33:55Yes, he's never been to an auction before.

0:33:55 > 0:33:58- You've been to loads though, haven't you?- I have, yeah.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00- You are experienced?- Very.- OK.

0:34:02 > 0:34:04OK, and here it comes.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08Now this, I defy you to find a smarter little desk set than this.

0:34:08 > 0:34:11I'll start it gently at £45 bid, 45...

0:34:11 > 0:34:13should have a long way to go at this.

0:34:13 > 0:34:14£45, 50,

0:34:14 > 0:34:1655, 60,

0:34:16 > 0:34:1965, 65 here.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22- 70 on the net.- You're in profit. - 75 to my left,

0:34:22 > 0:34:2580, 85... 85. Good thing this.

0:34:25 > 0:34:29- 90, 95.- Well done.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32- 100...- I told you it was a good one.- ..110,

0:34:32 > 0:34:35120, 130,

0:34:35 > 0:34:37130, 140,

0:34:37 > 0:34:40150, 160,

0:34:40 > 0:34:43- 170, 180... - Oh, my God.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46190, thank you, sir.

0:34:46 > 0:34:49- 190 in the room, 200, 200...- Look.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52My bid's on the net, are you quite sure you're all done?

0:34:52 > 0:34:56Fair warning, I sell an exceptionally good thing at 200.

0:34:56 > 0:34:59Yes! £200.

0:35:02 > 0:35:05- There you are. - Get in.- That's it, isn't it?

0:35:05 > 0:35:09£138 profit, mark that.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12OK, now we go for the snuffbox.

0:35:12 > 0:35:16Lovely little box, this. An extremely refined piece.

0:35:16 > 0:35:17With me at... £10 bid.

0:35:17 > 0:35:19Easy as that. £10 bid. £10.

0:35:19 > 0:35:2010 bid, £10.

0:35:20 > 0:35:2112, 15.

0:35:21 > 0:35:2318, 20.

0:35:23 > 0:35:2622, 22, I'm out.

0:35:26 > 0:35:2825, 25, it's a good little box.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30It's not a lot of money. 25, you sure?

0:35:30 > 0:35:34Thank you, sir. 28, 28 and 30, thank you.

0:35:34 > 0:35:36£30 bid with the lady.

0:35:36 > 0:35:38Who else wants a go? 30. 30 bid.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40I sell then at £30. Thank you, madam.

0:35:40 > 0:35:44- Yes!- £30 is brilliant. That is plus £20.

0:35:44 > 0:35:49- Wow.- That means you are plus £158.

0:35:49 > 0:35:51And still firing.

0:35:51 > 0:35:56Military bearing compass in its original transit case.

0:35:56 > 0:36:01£20 bid, £20, 20 bid, who else? This is too cheap.

0:36:01 > 0:36:03£20, 22, I'll come back to you, madam.

0:36:03 > 0:36:0425, 28...

0:36:04 > 0:36:07and 30, 35.

0:36:07 > 0:36:0938, 38.

0:36:09 > 0:36:13To my left, madam, your turn.

0:36:13 > 0:36:17Don't let me down. 38. 38, 38, 38...

0:36:17 > 0:36:20Getting my hopes up. 38. Are you quite sure?

0:36:20 > 0:36:26Net's out, room's out bar here. 38, I sell at 38.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28Unfortunately, Laidlaw was right. He was right.

0:36:28 > 0:36:31He didn't predict more than about £30-£50.

0:36:31 > 0:36:36Anyway, 38, that is two light of 40 which is 15, that's minus £17.

0:36:36 > 0:36:39Which means you are £141 plus.

0:36:39 > 0:36:41You can't complain about that.

0:36:41 > 0:36:47- No.- Hey, come on. Plus £141. You only spent £127.

0:36:47 > 0:36:51You lost £17 on one item and you're still £141 up.

0:36:51 > 0:36:54- That is a remarkable achievement. - My goodness. That's good.

0:36:54 > 0:36:56Isn't it lovely? That is so lovely. OK, fine.

0:36:56 > 0:36:58Now, what are you going to do about the pendant?

0:36:58 > 0:37:02Are you going to park it or are you going to wear it?

0:37:02 > 0:37:05I love it but I think it is just a little bit too expensive.

0:37:05 > 0:37:07- Is that a definite, is it? - Definitely.

0:37:07 > 0:37:08OK, they're not going with the bonus buy

0:37:08 > 0:37:11but we all think it's lovely and we are going to sell it anyway

0:37:11 > 0:37:15and see whether Anita is right with £150 or not.

0:37:15 > 0:37:16What think you?

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Anyone at £100? 50 for a start?

0:37:18 > 0:37:2150, 50, where were we?

0:37:21 > 0:37:25£50 bid, £50 we're off. £50. 50 bid. This is lovely.

0:37:25 > 0:37:2655, 60,

0:37:26 > 0:37:2865, 70,

0:37:28 > 0:37:33- 75.- Come on.

0:37:33 > 0:37:37130, 140, 150, the internet has broke out.

0:37:37 > 0:37:44- 160, thank you, madam.- You are in profit. Well done, Anita.- 160, 160.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47- Where will you see another one of these?- You are well justified.- 160.

0:37:47 > 0:37:50Are you bidding, internet? 180 in the room. Fair warning.

0:37:50 > 0:37:56- I sell at £180.- Good girl, Anita. Good girl. Well done. £160...

0:37:56 > 0:37:58What a wonderful expert. You found

0:37:58 > 0:38:00- the thing.- Yes.- Plus £30. All right.

0:38:00 > 0:38:02Anyway, you missed out on £30,

0:38:02 > 0:38:06but you still have £141 ring fenced.

0:38:06 > 0:38:12- Fantastic.- Wow.- Well done. - What a team, what a team.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14Listen, kids, say nothing to the Blues, all right?

0:38:14 > 0:38:16There's no point in ruining their day.

0:38:24 > 0:38:28- Now, Ken, Linda, do you know how the Reds got on?- Haven't a clue.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31That's just as well. OK, Ken, OK, Linda, this is exciting.

0:38:31 > 0:38:34Cross your legs because the first item is coming up right now.

0:38:34 > 0:38:38This is a little late-19th-century Victorian model tip-cart.

0:38:38 > 0:38:42Exquisitely worked. I commend it to you, I like it very much myself.

0:38:42 > 0:38:44I have got a bit of interest here.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47I can start it at 55, 65...

0:38:47 > 0:38:5265, 65, 65 on commission. 65, who else?

0:38:52 > 0:38:56- No money.- This is too cheap. 65, 65, 65.

0:38:56 > 0:38:59- 70, 75.- Look out, he's going.

0:38:59 > 0:39:0275 with me. Is that it?

0:39:02 > 0:39:05- 75, 75. I think it is a gift. - Is that all?

0:39:05 > 0:39:11- 75, 75, are you quite sure? I sell at 75.- He's trying.

0:39:11 > 0:39:14And he's selling it for £75. That's a £10 profit. That's fine.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18- It is a profit.- We are a third of the way to our golden gavel.

0:39:19 > 0:39:25Cracking little silver pill or snuffbox. Anyone £50? £50 we have.

0:39:25 > 0:39:29Well done, you. £50. 50 bid, 50 bid, £50.

0:39:29 > 0:39:33- Could be a maiden bid. - Is that it? One-horse race. £50.

0:39:33 > 0:39:3855 on the net. Come again, sir. £60, thank you. £60, 60 bid.

0:39:38 > 0:39:44- Everyone else, my bid's here at £60 and I sell at £60.- Plus £17.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47Like shelling peas. Well done, Lynn.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49Now here comes the meter.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52And a little instrument there. This is of military origin.

0:39:52 > 0:39:57A 1942 military detector. £10 to get it moving.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00£10, £10, it is a no-brainer this, surely.

0:40:00 > 0:40:04£10 there. Who wants it? Quick, quick. £10 bid. £10.

0:40:04 > 0:40:07It's a bargain, it's slipping through the net. £10 bid.

0:40:07 > 0:40:12- You will go home and you'll regret this.- I feel a bit of tension here.

0:40:12 > 0:40:1412, 15. Sir? 18, madam?

0:40:14 > 0:40:1720, thank you. Bid at the back, 22.

0:40:17 > 0:40:18Get it for 25.

0:40:18 > 0:40:21- You know you want to.- Yes, go on.

0:40:21 > 0:40:24- Sir?- Go on.- She is ready.

0:40:24 > 0:40:25Are you sure?

0:40:25 > 0:40:29I sell, then. Fair warning. Well done, madam.

0:40:29 > 0:40:32- How much was it, then?- £25, I think.

0:40:32 > 0:40:36Which means overall you are plus £22.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38And that could be a winning score.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41Now what are you going to do about baboon face?

0:40:41 > 0:40:44- Are you going to invest £40 in the tribal?- I think so, yes.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46- Do you rate it?- I do rate it, yes.

0:40:46 > 0:40:49- Do you believe everything that Dave says about it?- Yes.

0:40:49 > 0:40:50The more I looked at it, the more I rated it.

0:40:50 > 0:40:53Now that we know you are going with the bonus buy,

0:40:53 > 0:40:55I can tell you that the auctioneer's estimate is £20-£40.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57And here it comes. Look at that.

0:40:58 > 0:41:01Ethnic African carved wooden headdress. Striking object.

0:41:01 > 0:41:04What a visage that presents.

0:41:04 > 0:41:06£20 to get me started? £20.

0:41:06 > 0:41:10£20, 20 bid, where is the competition? £20 bid. £20.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14- Where are you on this? A good thing. £20 bid.- Come on!

0:41:14 > 0:41:17African mask for £20! Where on earth?

0:41:17 > 0:41:18£20, £22,

0:41:18 > 0:41:2125, 28,

0:41:21 > 0:41:2230, 32,

0:41:22 > 0:41:2435, 38,

0:41:24 > 0:41:2640, £40 here seated.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29You quite sure? I don't think it's enough but I've got to sell.

0:41:29 > 0:41:33- £40, 40 bid, fair warning.- Come on.

0:41:33 > 0:41:37- Last chance at £40.- No. - I can't bear it.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42The baboon wiped its face. Absolutely. No profit, no loss.

0:41:42 > 0:41:46- That's right.- No loss, that's the main thing. Well done, David.

0:41:46 > 0:41:48This is not the place for baboon face, anyway.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57I suspect that there are two teams here

0:41:57 > 0:42:01who are feeling pretty cocky about the result.

0:42:01 > 0:42:04Because we have two teams, quite unusually on Bargain Hunt,

0:42:04 > 0:42:08who have made profits. Which is lovely, isn't it?

0:42:08 > 0:42:11We cannot have losers on this programme, we only have runners-up.

0:42:11 > 0:42:13And the runners-up today, by a good old wodge,

0:42:13 > 0:42:14just happen to be the Blues.

0:42:14 > 0:42:18- Oh!- So bad luck, Blues.- Oh!

0:42:19 > 0:42:23- You made £22 of profit. - It was good going.

0:42:23 > 0:42:27Good going by anybody's standards but not good enough today.

0:42:27 > 0:42:29- Never mind. - So there's your 20, darling.

0:42:29 > 0:42:32And there is your two, Linda. It has been good, hasn't it?

0:42:32 > 0:42:34- It has been great. - And we've learnt a lot.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36- We've had a fabulous time. - We've loved having you.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38- So thanks for being such good sports.- Thank you.

0:42:38 > 0:42:46But walking away today with £141 profit, it's the Red Team.

0:42:46 > 0:42:48You did phenomenally well.

0:42:48 > 0:42:52£141 is right up there in the profit scales on Bargain Hunt.

0:42:52 > 0:42:55- So I congratulate you.- Thank you. - Thank you very much.

0:42:55 > 0:42:56Anyway, it has been such fun.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59- Why don't you join us soon for some more bargain-hunting, yes?- Yes!
