0:00:07 > 0:00:10Lincolnshire, the county steeped in RAF history

0:00:10 > 0:00:13and home to the world-famous Red Arrows.

0:00:15 > 0:00:17Believe it or not, the Red Arrows

0:00:17 > 0:00:21and our teams on Bargain Hunt have quite a lot in common.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24They both need speed

0:00:24 > 0:00:27and agility in order to showcase their skills.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30But fortunately the teams don't need to soar

0:00:30 > 0:00:34to great heights in a Hawk jet,

0:00:34 > 0:00:37but what they do need to do is to be able to jet around

0:00:37 > 0:00:41using hawk eyes. So, chocks away

0:00:41 > 0:00:44and let's go bargain hunting!

0:01:07 > 0:01:11Today, we're paying a flying visit to the Antiques and Home Show

0:01:11 > 0:01:15here at the Lincolnshire Showground. Just look at this place.

0:01:15 > 0:01:18Stalls as far as the eye can see.

0:01:20 > 0:01:24With just 60 minutes, our teams will be winging around here with their

0:01:24 > 0:01:28£300, hoping that they'll land a profit

0:01:28 > 0:01:30when they get over to the auction.

0:01:30 > 0:01:34So, buckle up and let's see what's coming up!

0:01:35 > 0:01:40On today's show, Mark has his work cut out with the Reds.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43- No.- I think we can probably find something better.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45- So you are saying, "No, Mark." OK. - Yeah.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49And the Blue team are all in a muddle.

0:01:49 > 0:01:52I need to talk to the organ grinder or... Who is it,

0:01:52 > 0:01:54the monkey or the organ grinder?

0:01:54 > 0:01:58And over at the auction, it seems there's a lot to be excited about.

0:01:58 > 0:02:02- Not bad!- That's not a bad...

0:02:02 > 0:02:06On the show today we've got two teams of best buddies.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10For the Reds we've got Martha and Stacey,

0:02:10 > 0:02:12and for the Blues we've got Stuart and Kevin.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Hello, everyone.- ALL: Hello!

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Very lovely to see you. Now, Martha, what do you do for a living, darling?

0:02:17 > 0:02:23At the moment, I'm in my first year of studying occupational therapy at York St John University.

0:02:23 > 0:02:25- Are you? that's quite a mouthful, isn't it?- It really is.

0:02:25 > 0:02:30- We call it OT, it is a lot easier. - Yes, absolutely. OTT. No, OT.

0:02:30 > 0:02:34- And what do you like about your studies?- I like the fact that

0:02:34 > 0:02:38- hopefully it will end up giving me a job that pays well.- Yes.

0:02:38 > 0:02:43But if any of my tutors are watching, it is because I like helping people and being nice to people and

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- helping people gain independence and all of that stuff.- You are going to fit in terribly well on

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Bargain Hunt, I can tell you that.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50THEY LAUGH

0:02:50 > 0:02:55And, Stacey, your meeting up with Martha happened how?

0:02:55 > 0:02:58It was through a friend at a pub quiz,

0:02:58 > 0:03:00which we normally do quite well on.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Did you win that pub quiz? On that occasion.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05- Yes.- Yes, we won.- Brilliant. Brilliant.

0:03:05 > 0:03:07What do you do for a living, Stacey?

0:03:07 > 0:03:10I work in a mycology lab, and I test for tree diseases.

0:03:10 > 0:03:12Sounds terrible, doesn't it?

0:03:12 > 0:03:15And how did you start in this particular business?

0:03:15 > 0:03:17It was quite random how I fell into it.

0:03:17 > 0:03:21I was doing what Martha does at uni, OT.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25- Yeah.- But I thought it was rubbish, and left.- Did you really?- Yes.

0:03:25 > 0:03:30What, you decided being nice to people, being helpful and lovely and everything else,

0:03:30 > 0:03:33being really supportive, you thought that's no good, that's not for you?

0:03:33 > 0:03:34Yeah, it was not what I wanted.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Get a real job and go and look at some fungus.

0:03:37 > 0:03:38- Uh-huh. - THEY LAUGH

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Do you know anything about antiques, Martha?

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Very little, really.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45My grandma was very into antiques so I know the stuff she liked,

0:03:45 > 0:03:49but that's probably quite a narrow band. I like pretty things

0:03:49 > 0:03:53and probably things that aren't worth very much money, unfortunately.

0:03:53 > 0:03:57- But, you know, you are students so you know about a bargain.- Oh, yes.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59- And you know how to bargain. - Very much.

0:03:59 > 0:04:00I think Lincoln had better look out.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03- Anyway, we are going to have fun, aren't we?- Very much, yes.- Super.

0:04:03 > 0:04:08Lovely to talk to you. Now, chaps. Kevin. How did you two meet?

0:04:08 > 0:04:12We met when our wives were having their first babies at

0:04:12 > 0:04:14National Childbirth Trust...

0:04:14 > 0:04:16lessons.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19And Stuart's opening line to us was, "Breast is best."

0:04:19 > 0:04:21And do you know, he is quite right.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Changing the subject a bit,

0:04:23 > 0:04:26tell us about your job as a management consultant.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29I work for utilities.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33I'm in the energy, power and water industries,

0:04:33 > 0:04:36looking at efficient ways to manage,

0:04:36 > 0:04:40- you know, waste products.- Yeah. Are you good on methane?

0:04:40 > 0:04:41THEY LAUGH

0:04:41 > 0:04:45- Pretty good on methane. Expert. - Now, Stuart, you are also

0:04:45 > 0:04:47- in your own way of business.- Yes.

0:04:47 > 0:04:52About 20 years ago I set up my own hardware shop.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55Expanded in a way and gone on to the internet,

0:04:55 > 0:05:00but with the more obscure items, the hard to find items.

0:05:00 > 0:05:04I like new old stock, so 1920s, '30s, '40s.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08- Now, Stuart, to be or not to be? - Ah, that is the question.

0:05:08 > 0:05:13- Because you do a bit of that, don't you?- A little bit.- Tell us about your performances in the am-dram.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17Just recently we've just finished a massive five-night run.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Ho, ho. Would that be in the West End?

0:05:19 > 0:05:22- That would actually be also in the village of Kibworth.- Yes.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25- We've just done 'Allo 'Allo! - And your part was?

0:05:25 > 0:05:28- IN ITALIAN ACCENT: - "Captain Alberto Bertorelli!

0:05:28 > 0:05:32- "The Italian war hero, you understand."- Yeah, I understand.

0:05:32 > 0:05:35- What sort of pieces do you think you'll would go for?- I...

0:05:35 > 0:05:39Small silver items. And potentially glass,

0:05:39 > 0:05:41- I was going to look at.- Yeah.

0:05:41 > 0:05:43Good. So, a happy partnership.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46- Absolutely.- OK, talking of partnerships, you need some lubrication,

0:05:46 > 0:05:49and to lubricate the joints, I'm going to give you £300. There's £300.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53£300 apiece. You know the rules. Your experts await, and off you go,

0:05:53 > 0:05:55and very, very, very good luck.

0:05:58 > 0:06:02And of course, our two tenacious teams need two exuberant experts.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06It's plucky Mark Stacey with the Reds today.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10Whilst Natasha Raskin will be packing in a lot of shopping

0:06:10 > 0:06:11with the Blues.

0:06:12 > 0:06:16- Martha, Stacy, are you ready for this?- Very much so.

0:06:16 > 0:06:20- How excited are you, from one to ten?- 15.- Ecstatic. - HE LAUGHS

0:06:20 > 0:06:23Quite often on Bargain Hunt I find myself between two extremely

0:06:23 > 0:06:25handsome men.

0:06:25 > 0:06:29- What would you like to buy?- I'd quite like to get some silverware. I like silver.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32- Stacy?- We just want some random things.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36- Hardware is what you're into, is that what we're looking for? - It would be nice to find some old

0:06:36 > 0:06:38nuts and bolts and some screws. But...

0:06:38 > 0:06:41maybe something a little bit more up market than that, eh?

0:06:41 > 0:06:44Right, teams, your 60 minutes starts now.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45WHISTLE BLOWS

0:06:45 > 0:06:46Come on, let's get shopping.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49- Yes!- Let's go!- Come on, then.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52So, this shop sounds like it's going to be full of drama

0:06:52 > 0:06:54and excitement and randomness.

0:06:56 > 0:06:57- Freaky - that man thing.- What thing?

0:06:57 > 0:06:59That man thing!

0:06:59 > 0:07:00Yes.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03- Potty.- That's - that's a potty, yep.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- OK, we'll steer clear of those. - Yeah.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Crikey, you've got your hands full today, Natasha.

0:07:09 > 0:07:10Do you like that stick stand?

0:07:10 > 0:07:11- This?- Oh, I do like that, yes!

0:07:11 > 0:07:14It's for putting your walking stick in and things.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15Who has that many sticks, though?

0:07:15 > 0:07:17Well, someone who collects sticks.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19- It's got lino on the bottom.- Has it? - Yeah.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21What's wrong with lino? You're not being...

0:07:21 > 0:07:22It's not very antiquey, is it?!

0:07:22 > 0:07:25You're not being anti-lino, are you?

0:07:25 > 0:07:28Come on, girls, positive thoughts, please. Thank you.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Look at the lovely bum nut. - Absolutely.- Yes!

0:07:31 > 0:07:33I mean, if ever there was a bum nut,

0:07:33 > 0:07:35that is the nicest bum nut I've ever seen.

0:07:35 > 0:07:36Cheeky.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38- What's your price on the bum nut? - £600.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41- £600 for this lovely bottom. - How much have we got to spend?

0:07:41 > 0:07:42We've got half that!

0:07:43 > 0:07:46You're right, Natasha. Time to crack on, eh?

0:07:47 > 0:07:49Now, what's Mark up to with the Reds?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51That's quite a nice piece of porcelain.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53I'll tell you what it is -

0:07:53 > 0:07:56- it's probably a blue and white teapot stand.- Mm-hm.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59And when you look at the mark, you've got a little C mark on there.

0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Oh, yeah.- Now, that's for a factory called Caughley.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04- Mm-hm.- And this was made about 1780.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06No way! It's not that old, is it?

0:08:06 > 0:08:08- Made about 17... It's English porcelain...- Oh, OK.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10- ..copying Chinese blue and white porcelain.- I like it.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13- I like the little guy. - It's called the fisherman pattern,

0:08:13 > 0:08:15surprisingly enough. How much is this?

0:08:15 > 0:08:16£10.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18- £10?- Absolute bargain.

0:08:18 > 0:08:23If somebody doesn't pay 30, 40 pounds for this, or more,

0:08:23 > 0:08:25there's simply no justice in the world.

0:08:25 > 0:08:27I'll do it for £9 if you want it.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30- That's a deal.- That's a deal. We're having it. Nine quid.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33Well, that was an unexpected reduction.

0:08:33 > 0:08:34He didn't even need to haggle.

0:08:34 > 0:08:38One down, Reds. I think Mark has done you proud, there.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42Meanwhile, something has caught the eye of the Blue team.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44It's an old toffee box, isn't it?

0:08:44 > 0:08:46- It appeals to you.- Yeah. - Why does it appeal to you?

0:08:46 > 0:08:48I just... I...

0:08:48 > 0:08:50As a businessman, I just think it might be something

0:08:50 > 0:08:56- that would be given to the shop that sells Hall's State Toffee...- OK.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58..as a promotional piece of kit.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01Wow, you've come up with a whole back-story about this item.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Well, I don't know - I might be completely wrong.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05It might be just cobbled together, but if it...

0:09:05 > 0:09:07But it's got to be cheap.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09If you saw that in a general auction, what would you pay for it?

0:09:09 > 0:09:13- I'd give you...£25 for it. - You would?

0:09:13 > 0:09:15So, do your stuff, then, Stuart,

0:09:15 > 0:09:17and work your magic with the storeholder.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Now, Martin...- It's not my stock.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Oh, now you're in trouble.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24I need to talk to the organ grinder, or... Who is it?

0:09:24 > 0:09:25The monkey or the organ grinder?

0:09:25 > 0:09:29I can take the money off you if you're offering full ticket price.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31How much...? Well, there's no ticket on it.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34If it's that inkstand there, I think he was asking £70 -

0:09:34 > 0:09:36- only £70 for that.- No.

0:09:36 > 0:09:38No, no. So, we need to talk to the man, really.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40You certainly do.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43It looks like our man is putting the call in to the dealer.

0:09:44 > 0:09:48Oh, hold up - Mr Stacey has his wits about him today.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52- That little...- Do you think it's old?- It's Yorkshire, as well.

0:09:52 > 0:09:56I think the box is old - I don't know if the writing is old.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59If the price is right, I'm not even sure it matters.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01- Right.- Because it's a very decorative piece.

0:10:01 > 0:10:05- A little bit of wax on that... - It does need a clean-up, doesn't it?

0:10:05 > 0:10:07And it would look lovely in a small cottage.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10And I like it - Sergeant H Whitfield, D Company,

0:10:10 > 0:10:115th Yorkshire regiment.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13I've got a friend called Whitfield.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Have you?- I might get her to come to the auction!

0:10:15 > 0:10:16It's sounding good, isn't it?

0:10:16 > 0:10:18- How much is the box?- 120.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Ooh!- It's a lot. - That's very expensive.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23You see, it's a little blanket box -

0:10:23 > 0:10:26this is were you would have kept the candles.

0:10:26 > 0:10:32- Mm-hm.- And the candles were often scented to stop moths.

0:10:32 > 0:10:37And there's a little box in there, as well, with King George V on it.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39- Mm-hm.- Another George.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41And there's a little piece of paper inside.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45"Special royal...

0:10:45 > 0:10:47"jubilee version, the national anthem."

0:10:47 > 0:10:49I think 80 would be a good price.

0:10:49 > 0:10:53- I think if we could have it for 80 we'd buy it now.- 90 quid.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55- I knew he was going to say that. - Yeah.

0:10:55 > 0:10:5685 for us?

0:10:56 > 0:11:01- Go on.- 85.- Are we getting the little box? Wonderful. 85.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03- Are you happy with that? - Yeah!- Shake his hand.

0:11:03 > 0:11:08These Reds are on a mission today. Two items down in 20 minutes.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11Meanwhile, the Blues have tracked down that dealer.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13The Hall's State Toffee tin - best price?

0:11:13 > 0:11:15I've got £75 on it.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18So, a price that's going to make me want to buy it.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20- Mm.- Now.

0:11:20 > 0:11:22£60, the best.

0:11:22 > 0:11:26Now, remember, Stuart, you wanted to £25, didn't you?

0:11:26 > 0:11:29- Would you take 50? - I can't, I'm sorry.

0:11:29 > 0:11:30No, 60's the best.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32How about splitting it? 55.

0:11:32 > 0:11:34What?!

0:11:34 > 0:11:36- Go on, then. OK.- Thank you.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40Hmm... I don't think anyone else had a look-in there, hey, Stuart?

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Oh, Mark's at it again.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45He's earning his keep today, hey, girls?

0:11:45 > 0:11:48This is the German form of Art Nouveau.

0:11:48 > 0:11:52- It's quite - it's organic, but very formalised.- Mm.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54And this is just a little pillbox or something

0:11:54 > 0:11:58for a lady to have in her purse at the time.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01- I think we can probably find something better.- OK.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03- I don't know.- On your head be it. - I really like it, though!

0:12:03 > 0:12:05- I'm here to help, that's all, you know?- Yeah.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08- We can find better. - We can find something more exciting.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10- All I can do is advise. - We've already got one box.- Yeah.

0:12:10 > 0:12:12We don't want to be too boxed in!

0:12:12 > 0:12:14- Oh, no, Martha.- Oh, gosh.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16Deep breath, Mark.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18- Oh, please. - I'm just going to go home now!

0:12:18 > 0:12:20- Little bit...- Looks a bit like you!

0:12:22 > 0:12:23What are you chuckling about over here?

0:12:23 > 0:12:25What have you found?

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Kevin's found a small one of himself!

0:12:28 > 0:12:31I'm making absolutely no comment here.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36What a jolly little fella he is. Now, speaking of jolly...

0:12:36 > 0:12:39This shopping is thirsty work. Let's take a break

0:12:39 > 0:12:41and have a look at something rather interesting

0:12:41 > 0:12:42I picked up here in Lincoln.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Do you fancy a drink?

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Well, in 1790,

0:12:48 > 0:12:54you might have fancied a drink out of one of these little fellas.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57"A book?" I hear you say.

0:12:57 > 0:13:00Well, it's a piece of ceramic, it's earthenware,

0:13:00 > 0:13:04that's been formed and shaped as a dummy book.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07It's then been decorated in tin glaze -

0:13:07 > 0:13:09and you can tell it's tin glaze

0:13:09 > 0:13:11because running along the bottom, here,

0:13:11 > 0:13:14that black stuff is the original pot colour that's then been

0:13:14 > 0:13:19covered in a very thin film of white tin glaze.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22Then it's been decorated with colour on the top,

0:13:22 > 0:13:23and then it's been glazed.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25If you look at the spine,

0:13:25 > 0:13:29that's been detailed with these purple stars,

0:13:29 > 0:13:33look - rather like gilding on the spine of a real book.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35And on the front,

0:13:35 > 0:13:39a brightly coloured flower within a border that looks, again,

0:13:39 > 0:13:43as if it was tooled leather running around the edge of a book.

0:13:43 > 0:13:46The game, however, is given away on the top,

0:13:46 > 0:13:48which has got this cork bung,

0:13:48 > 0:13:53into which you would decant some very strong spirits.

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Probably rum or brandy.

0:13:55 > 0:13:59Now, this doesn't date from a period of prohibition.

0:13:59 > 0:14:01It's a period where, perhaps,

0:14:01 > 0:14:05if you came from a teetotal household,

0:14:05 > 0:14:07but you wanted to hide away the fact

0:14:07 > 0:14:11that you'd got a nip or two of spirits in the house,

0:14:11 > 0:14:15this would be the ideal receptacle in which you'd put your booze.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19But the thing I really like about it is the inscription

0:14:19 > 0:14:22that's been enamelled on this side, look -

0:14:22 > 0:14:24it says, "Joys many, sorrows few."

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Well, that would be the case

0:14:26 > 0:14:30if you'd had one or two nips out of this flask.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32In other words, you've dulled the pain

0:14:32 > 0:14:37of your otherwise mundane and ordinary everyday life.

0:14:37 > 0:14:38Where was it made?

0:14:38 > 0:14:41Well, the colour scheme would indicate to me

0:14:41 > 0:14:45that it looks a bit Scottish - possibly Portobello,

0:14:45 > 0:14:49those factories that run up the east coast of Scotland

0:14:49 > 0:14:52that have these bright colours associated with them.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55How do I rate it as a piece of ceramics?

0:14:55 > 0:15:02Well, it's rare, it's unusual, and if you saw it, as I did,

0:15:02 > 0:15:07here in the fair, priced up at around £50, it's a good buy,

0:15:07 > 0:15:09because, certainly, you take it away,

0:15:09 > 0:15:14consign it in a specialist ceramic sale, do a bit of research,

0:15:14 > 0:15:18I've no doubt you'd get between, say, 150 and £250.

0:15:20 > 0:15:22That's worthwhile raising a glass to.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Time to check in back with the teams,

0:15:27 > 0:15:29and see if they have anything to celebrate.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31We're just after halfway through the shop -

0:15:31 > 0:15:33the Blues still only have one item,

0:15:33 > 0:15:36and the Reds are doing slightly better with two.

0:15:37 > 0:15:42I like the shape of them, but I'm not quite sure that...

0:15:42 > 0:15:44- Eh?- Chavvy.

0:15:44 > 0:15:45- Bit chavvy.- Yeah.

0:15:45 > 0:15:47I don't know if people like brass these days.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50No, quite possibly not - particularly chavvy brass.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52You try your best, eh, Mark?

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Time check, please, Natasha.

0:15:55 > 0:16:00We are 35 minutes in, nearly 40.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Mm.- So, we only have about 20 minutes left,

0:16:03 > 0:16:05and we are on the clock every second.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07So, we need to find something, and we need to find it fast.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- In fact, two things, gents. - Come on, then.- Can we do it?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Yes, let's hope so.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15You're not filling me with much confidence, I have to admit, team.

0:16:15 > 0:16:18It's quite interesting, this, you know,

0:16:18 > 0:16:22because it's modelled on a really old form of chair.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24- What do you think?- No.

0:16:24 > 0:16:25No, change our mind.

0:16:25 > 0:16:28That's your favourite word, I've gathered, today.

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Poor Mark. You're having a really hard time today, mate.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Come on, we can do this. Think positively!

0:16:34 > 0:16:36Looks as though the boys have listened to Natasha

0:16:36 > 0:16:39and have picked up the pace of their shop.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Looks like cabochon stone, I think.

0:16:41 > 0:16:45And if we pull this open, we should have...

0:16:45 > 0:16:48- There we have it, a little dabber for our scent.- Right.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51Now, is it hallmarked, or is it marked 925?

0:16:51 > 0:16:53- It's marked 925, and it's... - Sterling silver.

0:16:53 > 0:16:54Yeah, sterling silver,

0:16:54 > 0:16:57but there also are some nice markings, as well, smaller.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59- It's a lovely thing. - It's nice, isn't it?

0:16:59 > 0:17:00Yeah, and very popular, you know?

0:17:00 > 0:17:02I think that it's sort of got broad appeal,

0:17:02 > 0:17:04- because you could hang that from a necklace...- Yes.

0:17:04 > 0:17:08Very wearable, and a very sweet little trinkety thing.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10- It's got £24 written on it.- OK.

0:17:10 > 0:17:13- I reckon at auction, you know, it's going to be a £20-40 lot.- OK.

0:17:13 > 0:17:15There's not a lot of wiggle in it, but we can try.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17- We need some wiggle, though. - And we need to get a wiggle on!

0:17:17 > 0:17:19We need to get a wiggle on, and get some wiggle off.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22- Yeah.- You were our chief negotiator with our tin.- Right.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25- Kevin, shall we give this one to you?- Yes, OK.- Probably a good idea.

0:17:25 > 0:17:27Let's hope Kevin can do a little better, eh, Stuart?

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Now, back with the Reds.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Maybe the girls have found something.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Girls, I've found a bit of silver plate.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Well, no - over to Mark again.

0:17:37 > 0:17:38But it's rather cute.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40- With the little... - I've seen them before.

0:17:40 > 0:17:43- With the little winged...- My mum's got them on the back of a mirror.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45Yeah, that's right. They're known as Reynolds angels

0:17:45 > 0:17:47- after the painter, Sir Joshua Reynolds.- Mm-hm.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50- £12.- It's got a bit of a dent in it.

0:17:50 > 0:17:51Uh-huh.

0:17:52 > 0:17:54So, what's that mean, then?

0:17:54 > 0:17:55I think we know what's coming.

0:17:55 > 0:17:57Well, that's what - you said, "No, Martha,"

0:17:57 > 0:17:59when I showed you something with a dent in.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01- So, you're saying, "No, Mark." OK, fine.- Yeah.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03And breathe, Mark.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06Come on, Kevin, bring us some good news.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09- She's going to go for 15.- Oh! - So, that's a bargain, isn't it?

0:18:09 > 0:18:11- It's really good.- Let's go for that.

0:18:11 > 0:18:13Do you know what? Let's do it, let's not think twice.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17- £15, done and dusted. Moving on.- Thank you.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20And it's about time we had some good news over in the Red camp.

0:18:20 > 0:18:23Ten minutes left, team.

0:18:23 > 0:18:25Do you like that little silver-plated purse?

0:18:25 > 0:18:27That's got a dent in it, hasn't it?

0:18:27 > 0:18:29No, that's the pattern.

0:18:29 > 0:18:30- So...- You won't get it by us.

0:18:30 > 0:18:35Just imagine an Edwardian lady's gone out for the evening to a dance,

0:18:35 > 0:18:37and she'll take that with her

0:18:37 > 0:18:39to keep her sovereign, or her half sovereign, in...

0:18:39 > 0:18:41- Mm.- ..for her carriage fare home.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43I think, you know, we are running out of time,

0:18:43 > 0:18:46and we want something quick. How much has the lady got on that?

0:18:46 > 0:18:49Oh, really? Gosh. £24.

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Madam, we're running out of time,

0:18:51 > 0:18:54and I quite like the little silver-plated purse

0:18:54 > 0:18:56and the little box.

0:18:56 > 0:18:59Do you think we could get them at a really bargain price?

0:18:59 > 0:19:01Good tactic, Mark.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03A combined lot.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07- It's like, it looks denty there. - Denty? It's not dented.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08Really?

0:19:08 > 0:19:11- No... Well, it might be.- It is.

0:19:11 > 0:19:14Crikey, there are no flies on these girls.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17You're going to have to make some decisions sooner or later, team -

0:19:17 > 0:19:18dents or no dents.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26Right, Blues, just that final item to look for. Five minutes left.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30- They are lovely.- 115.- Tea caddy.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33- Do you want to ask about your vanity box?- Yes.- You were drawn to it.

0:19:33 > 0:19:34I quite like that vanity box, yes.

0:19:34 > 0:19:37It's beautifully upholstered, it's a gorgeous thing,

0:19:37 > 0:19:39the wood is absolutely beautifully polished.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41How much is the...or what's the best you can do on the...?

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Which box?

0:19:43 > 0:19:44This one. That one, there.

0:19:44 > 0:19:45A straight hundred.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47- A straight hundred.- So, £100.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50I really, genuinely think that's all the money for it.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52Everything about it is in just gorgeous condition.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55But the auction estimate's either going to be something like 70-90...

0:19:55 > 0:19:57We've already taken a bit of a gamble

0:19:57 > 0:20:00on our inkwell-cum-toffee box.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04- OK.- So, it's up to you, but... it's certainly a nice thing -

0:20:04 > 0:20:05but are you willing to gamble on it?

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Oh, my Lord. My nerves can't take this.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10Will someone please make a decision?!

0:20:10 > 0:20:11Over to you, Reds.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13Yeah, we'll ignore those, shall we?

0:20:13 > 0:20:15What about those Doulton teapots with the silver rim?

0:20:15 > 0:20:17- That one?- Yes.

0:20:17 > 0:20:18Have a look at that, quickly.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20We've got three minutes, Martha.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23- 55.- Let me have a look, please.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25So, what have we got here, now?

0:20:25 > 0:20:28We've got a little inscription here that says...

0:20:28 > 0:20:34"Mr Scott, Plummer's Foxhounds, 1902.

0:20:34 > 0:20:38"Willy walked by Mr M Dougal of Lylestone."

0:20:38 > 0:20:45So, this was a prize given to this person for walking his dog

0:20:45 > 0:20:47in a dog competition.

0:20:47 > 0:20:49THEY LAUGH

0:20:49 > 0:20:51And the dog was called Willy.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- What's your best price on...? - 40, I would say.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56- £40?!- No, oh...

0:20:56 > 0:20:58Mark's just walked off!

0:20:58 > 0:20:59I don't blame him.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02Heh, I think I need to go for a lie down after this.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07Come on, then, Kev - what's the deal with that box?

0:21:07 > 0:21:09The dealer's given his best price at £95.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11How about that, then, Blues?

0:21:11 > 0:21:13What about something like this?

0:21:13 > 0:21:14That's a no, then. Right.

0:21:14 > 0:21:1748 on that - and I would want 40 for it.

0:21:17 > 0:21:18It's in excellent condition.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20What, another inkwell?

0:21:20 > 0:21:22Do you want to buy a second inkwell?

0:21:22 > 0:21:25Great minds think alike, Natasha.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27- Can you do any better on that?- The inkwell?- Yeah.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29- So, what did you say?- 40.- 40.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32Yeah. Would you throw in a pen?

0:21:33 > 0:21:36Please. I forgot my "please"! I'm sorry.

0:21:36 > 0:21:37- Yes.- You'll throw in a pen?

0:21:37 > 0:21:39- 40 quid and a pen.- Yeah.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41- All right.- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:21:41 > 0:21:43- Are you going for it? - Yes, definitely.- Oh, we've done it.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45You'd better shake on it, if you can reach him.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Final deal signed and sealed for the Blues.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49The Reds, however, are officially in panic mode.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51I'm trying to find...

0:21:51 > 0:21:54See, I'm desperate, I'm frantic to find you something.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56- £40 for that teapot. - I think it's too much.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58Could you do 25?

0:21:58 > 0:22:0038.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03Right, so you've got... Where's my lovely other lady?

0:22:03 > 0:22:04Where is she?

0:22:04 > 0:22:05Could you do those for 20?

0:22:05 > 0:22:08Tick-tock, girls - 30 seconds.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10- Will you take...? - I've got a living to earn!

0:22:10 > 0:22:12Oh, come here, let me warm you up.

0:22:12 > 0:22:19- No. 25.- Right, so, you've got these for 25, or you've got that for...38.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22- 38.- So, the teapot or this.

0:22:22 > 0:22:24There's only ten seconds left.

0:22:24 > 0:22:25Ten...

0:22:25 > 0:22:27nine...

0:22:27 > 0:22:28eight...

0:22:28 > 0:22:29seven...

0:22:29 > 0:22:31six...

0:22:31 > 0:22:32five...

0:22:32 > 0:22:33four...

0:22:33 > 0:22:35three...

0:22:35 > 0:22:36two...

0:22:36 > 0:22:38one!

0:22:38 > 0:22:39KLAXON

0:22:39 > 0:22:41That's it

0:22:41 > 0:22:42Time's up.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Well, I would have gone for the teapot.

0:22:44 > 0:22:46But anyway, they've decided, now.

0:22:46 > 0:22:47They've decided...

0:22:49 > 0:22:53They're going to go for the box and the purse.

0:22:53 > 0:22:54Well done.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57We started off well, didn't we?

0:22:57 > 0:22:58Oh, thank goodness for that.

0:22:58 > 0:23:00I'm off for a stiff drink -

0:23:00 > 0:23:04whilst we check out what the Red team eventually bought.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08It all started so well - their first item was the teapot stand.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11They paid £9.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Next up was the travelling chest, which cost them £85.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20And they finally agreed, heh, on the mixed lot of the silver-plate

0:23:20 > 0:23:22purse alongside the pillbox - £25 paid.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26Now, tell me, did you have fun?

0:23:26 > 0:23:28- Yes. Yeah. - Which was your favourite piece?

0:23:28 > 0:23:32- Um, the kettle...stand.- Kettle stand. What about you, Martha?

0:23:32 > 0:23:35I like the Yorkshire box, cos I'm a York girl.

0:23:35 > 0:23:36How much did you spend?

0:23:36 > 0:23:39- £119.- Is that all?

0:23:39 > 0:23:40- Yes.- Mm-hm. Yeah.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43OK, well, I'll have £181 of leftover lolly, please.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45Which is an enormous wodge

0:23:45 > 0:23:47to pass over to a youngster like Mark Stacey.

0:23:47 > 0:23:48MARK CHUCKLES

0:23:48 > 0:23:50Are you going to be safe to go out with all this money, Mark?

0:23:50 > 0:23:53- Ooh, I'm not sure - it is a lot of money, isn't it?- Isn't it?

0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Well, I've got something quirky in mind.- Have you? How quirky?

0:23:56 > 0:23:58- Very quirky. - THEY LAUGH

0:23:58 > 0:23:59Well, that's good, then, isn't it?

0:23:59 > 0:24:02Anyway, go and have a nice, warm cup of tea, now,

0:24:02 > 0:24:04because we're going to check out

0:24:04 > 0:24:05what the Blue team bought, aren't we?

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Stuart had his heart set on the toffee tin inkwell,

0:24:09 > 0:24:11and paid a hefty £55.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15The second item was the small scent bottle.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18This set them back £15.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20And finally, it was the inkwell and stand,

0:24:20 > 0:24:22with a pen thrown in for good measure.

0:24:22 > 0:24:23It cost them £30.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27- OK, you great big hairy chaps. - THEY LAUGH

0:24:27 > 0:24:29- You had a good time, didn't you? - Yeah, we had a great time.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31- It was good, yes. - But you didn't spend much.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34- No, we struggled. - How much did you spend?

0:24:34 > 0:24:36- 110.- Yeah.- £110.- Yes.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39So, please may I have £190 of leftover lolly?

0:24:39 > 0:24:42Out of the struggle, which is your favourite piece?

0:24:42 > 0:24:46Mine is the little perfume bottle-cum-necklace.

0:24:46 > 0:24:51I-It has to be the lovely writing set toffee tin...

0:24:51 > 0:24:53because I bought it.

0:24:53 > 0:24:54Lovely. Thank you.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57Now, Natasha, that's not drinking money, that's bonus buy money.

0:24:57 > 0:25:00- I wish it were!- She needs it, don't you? You need it.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03- What are you going to find?- All I know, Tim, is what I WON'T buy -

0:25:03 > 0:25:05and that is an inkwell.

0:25:05 > 0:25:06Quite right, too.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Anyway, on that happy note, we'll get revved up,

0:25:09 > 0:25:12and before long we'll find ourselves over at the jolly old auction.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25Well, we've come 50-odd miles north of Lincoln

0:25:25 > 0:25:29to be at Beverley Racecourse in Hawleys Auctions,

0:25:29 > 0:25:31with Caroline Hawley herself.

0:25:31 > 0:25:32Caroline, good morning.

0:25:32 > 0:25:36- Good morning, Tim.- Now, first up we've got this teapot stand.

0:25:36 > 0:25:39Now, what do you make of this?

0:25:39 > 0:25:42Well, it's Caughley Worcester, which is a very moot point,

0:25:42 > 0:25:46- because there are obviously lots and lots of similarities.- Mm-hm.

0:25:46 > 0:25:51- About 1780.- Mm-hm. - It's in perfect condition.

0:25:51 > 0:25:56- Worth a lot less than they were, I'm really sorry to say.- Mm.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00But I'm really hoping it's going to get £40-60.

0:26:00 > 0:26:05- Fret not, because our miracle Red team only paid £9.- £9?!

0:26:05 > 0:26:07- £9.- That's brilliant.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11Next is the travelling chest, which has this lovely local connection.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13So, tell us what you think about that, Caroline.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15I think that is fantastic.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18What a brilliant buy to be sold in Beverley Racecourse.

0:26:18 > 0:26:21It's originally from Driffield Barracks,

0:26:21 > 0:26:24which is just down the road, so it's fantastic.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26Pine box, great condition,

0:26:26 > 0:26:31and inside it there's this lovely cigarette tin - George V, fantastic.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33And what's your estimate?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35I think £60-80.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38Well, it needs to do £85 - but it should do, shouldn't it?

0:26:38 > 0:26:40- I think it will.- Perfect.

0:26:40 > 0:26:45- And, lastly, is the Edwardian silver-plated finger purse...- Yes.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48..with the other little plated box.

0:26:48 > 0:26:50If it was in silver, it would be so much better.

0:26:50 > 0:26:54I mean, we've had some really, really good silver ones by good makers,

0:26:54 > 0:26:56and they'll get several hundred pounds.

0:26:56 > 0:27:01But this is just plated, Edwardian, and the little pillbox with it -

0:27:01 > 0:27:05yes, it's got Reynolds angels on, which is lovely...

0:27:05 > 0:27:0610-20.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08OK - £25 they paid.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10So, that's a bit light.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13But bearing in mind how well they did with the teapot stand,

0:27:13 > 0:27:15they probably won't even need their bonus buy -

0:27:15 > 0:27:17but let's go and have a look at it anyway.

0:27:19 > 0:27:25£119 you spent, you girls. £181 of leftover lolly was spent...

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Ta-da! On that.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28Wow!

0:27:28 > 0:27:33I love it. It's generally what we call a diorama.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35And this is obviously some sort of sea rescue going on,

0:27:35 > 0:27:37and Grace Darling is mentioned in there.

0:27:37 > 0:27:40But these things are quite popular now - they're interesting,

0:27:40 > 0:27:41they're quirky, they're different.

0:27:41 > 0:27:44- You don't see them very often. - Did you make this?

0:27:44 > 0:27:46I didn't make it. I wish I could - I'm not that talented.

0:27:46 > 0:27:47It looks like you've made it.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49- Would you like to know what I paid for it?- Yes.- Yes.

0:27:49 > 0:27:53- Just £40.- 40... I did tell you to spend it all, but OK.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55Yes, thank you. I didn't listen to you.

0:27:55 > 0:27:56He's a rebel! He's a rebel.

0:27:56 > 0:27:59And how much do you think it's going to make at auction?

0:27:59 > 0:28:03Well, I predict a bit of a profit.

0:28:03 > 0:28:06Maybe...I'd like to see it making £60-80, at least.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08- Double your money, then.- Yeah.

0:28:08 > 0:28:09That's his prediction.

0:28:09 > 0:28:11Right now, though, for the audience at home,

0:28:11 > 0:28:15let's find out what the auctioneer thinks about Mark's diorama.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17Now...

0:28:17 > 0:28:20I don't know what your nautical history's like, Caroline,

0:28:20 > 0:28:21but this is a weird job, isn't it?

0:28:21 > 0:28:25I think somebody has had great fun putting this together, Tim.

0:28:25 > 0:28:28- In their shed.- Yes, there's... Yes, probably.

0:28:28 > 0:28:32- Yes.- But it's this weird and wonderful characters,

0:28:32 > 0:28:36none of them really seem to fit together, but they're all there.

0:28:36 > 0:28:39It's a very unusual thing.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42- Somebody's put a lot of work into it. - In a shed.- In a shed.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44What's it worth, please, Caroline?

0:28:44 > 0:28:46I've said 80-120.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48- Have you really?- Mm.- OK, fine.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51- Well, the lovely Mark Stacey paid just £40.- Brilliant.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53Which, when you think about it, for £40,

0:28:53 > 0:28:57whether it's made in a shed or not, it's a pretty good thing, isn't it?

0:28:57 > 0:28:59- I think it's a great buy.- OK, fine.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02Anyway, that's it for the Reds - now for the Blues.

0:29:02 > 0:29:06- And they've got the toffee tin. - Yes.- Which is rather lovely.

0:29:06 > 0:29:08I think this is great.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11I've done quite a bit of research on them - they have been sold,

0:29:11 > 0:29:15and consequently I've put an estimate of £20-30,

0:29:15 > 0:29:19which is sort of average for the condition.

0:29:19 > 0:29:23It's in this lovely sort of faux mahogany sort of look about it.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26- And your estimate is?- 20-30. - Well, the team paid £55.

0:29:26 > 0:29:28Moving on, we've got a little bottle.

0:29:28 > 0:29:32I think this bottle is really quite modern.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35It's silver, it's marked 925.

0:29:35 > 0:29:36It's a lovely thing,

0:29:36 > 0:29:40and it's got a ring so it could be worn around your neck -

0:29:40 > 0:29:42but it doesn't have much age to it at all.

0:29:42 > 0:29:45- So, not old. - No, I don't think it's old.

0:29:45 > 0:29:46- What's it worth?- £10-20.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48Perfect.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50- They paid £15.- Great. - Spot-on.- Great.

0:29:50 > 0:29:53Next is the little encrier.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56Complete with a really weird stopper.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59I don't think that's a gavel, do you?

0:29:59 > 0:30:00It's...gavelesque, shall we call it?

0:30:00 > 0:30:04It's not really like the gavel I'm going to be using later,

0:30:04 > 0:30:08- but it's...I can see why it's described as a gavel.- Yes.

0:30:08 > 0:30:10It is that sort of shape, isn't it?

0:30:10 > 0:30:12- What's it worth?- I think £10-20.

0:30:12 > 0:30:14- They paid £40.- Oh.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16Anyway, right now I have a funny feeling they're going to

0:30:16 > 0:30:19need their bonus buy, so let's go and have a look at it.

0:30:20 > 0:30:24OK, guys. £110 is all you spent, £190 went to Natasha.

0:30:24 > 0:30:25What did you buy?

0:30:25 > 0:30:29Well, I bought you something that is quite OTT, quite feminine, and fun.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31Oh.

0:30:31 > 0:30:35- A lovely mottled glass... - Yes.- ..perfume atomiser.

0:30:35 > 0:30:38- You look like you hate it... - No, no, no!

0:30:38 > 0:30:40- No, it's different. I like it.- You're keen to touch - keen to touch.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42Well, it's mottled glass,

0:30:42 > 0:30:44it's got that lovely coppery fleck through it,

0:30:44 > 0:30:47which is in the style of Murano Venetian aventurine glass.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50So, we couldn't say that for sure, and I don't think that's what it is.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53- No, but it's nice.- It's got a bit of age to it.- It's different.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55And there's a certain market for these sort of things.

0:30:55 > 0:30:59You know, people do concentrate on nice items in their bathroom -

0:30:59 > 0:31:02I know it sounds silly, but it's a sort of interior design piece,

0:31:02 > 0:31:04so I think that it's in nice condition,

0:31:04 > 0:31:06ready to buy, and very attractive.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08Under the right lighting, that will look very shiny,

0:31:08 > 0:31:12and, I would imagine, very fine in its online illustration.

0:31:12 > 0:31:14So, how much did you pay for that?

0:31:14 > 0:31:16- Well, it was only £30. - Oh, that's good.

0:31:16 > 0:31:18- You gave me a lot more than that to spend!- Yes!

0:31:18 > 0:31:21When you see a bargain, you've gotta go for it.

0:31:21 > 0:31:26- It's not as good as the toffee tin, but...- Mm. Not many things are.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28How much do you think this will bail us out?

0:31:28 > 0:31:32- I reckon it could make 40-50. I really do.- And you paid...?- 30.

0:31:32 > 0:31:33Good.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36Well, on that happy note, there seems to be a sweet smell around.

0:31:36 > 0:31:38Let's find out, for the audience at home,

0:31:38 > 0:31:40what the auctioneer thinks about it.

0:31:41 > 0:31:43- There we go.- Thank you.

0:31:43 > 0:31:44To sweet Caroline.

0:31:44 > 0:31:45Ha, ha, ha.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49- Ooh!- There we go.- The puffer works! - That's nice, isn't it?

0:31:49 > 0:31:51Now, I think that this is lovely.

0:31:51 > 0:31:55It's charming, Art Deco, in the style of Murano glass.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58It is what it is - it's very pretty.

0:31:58 > 0:32:01It's got a few little tiny nibbles as we go round it,

0:32:01 > 0:32:03but nothing much to talk of.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06- This is lovely, and it would grace any dressing table.- Mm.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08And there's been quite a bit of interest in it,

0:32:08 > 0:32:10so I think this is going to do all right.

0:32:10 > 0:32:11How well?

0:32:11 > 0:32:13- £20-40.- OK. Natasha paid £30.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16- Ah, right!- And it could easily make 60, couldn't it?

0:32:16 > 0:32:17Yeah, it could, indeed.

0:32:17 > 0:32:20- OK.- Yeah, I've put it 20-40, hoping for the top end.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23- In which case, there won't be a smell about.- No!

0:32:23 > 0:32:24Anyway, good luck.

0:32:24 > 0:32:26- Thank you.- Thank you.

0:32:26 > 0:32:2822 anywhere?

0:32:28 > 0:32:29£20. Come along, it's worth it.

0:32:29 > 0:32:3122. 24. 26. 28.

0:32:31 > 0:32:3330.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37- Well, this is exciting, isn't it? - Yeah, very exciting.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39How excited are you?

0:32:39 > 0:32:42- Um...- On a scale of one to ten.

0:32:42 > 0:32:43- Nine.- Are you?

0:32:43 > 0:32:47- I'm excited about our plate. - Yeah.- Are you?- Yeah.- Mm-hm.

0:32:47 > 0:32:49Why are you excited about that?

0:32:49 > 0:32:51- Cos it's really old.- OK.

0:32:51 > 0:32:54- And, um...- Antiques expert speaks!

0:32:54 > 0:32:55It's well old.

0:32:55 > 0:32:59Well, you should be excited about it, because you only paid £9, right?

0:32:59 > 0:33:01- Yeah.- Which is not a lot of money. - Nope.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04- And the auctioneer has estimated £40-60.- Hey!

0:33:04 > 0:33:07So, as bargain hunters, you've done, on the face of it,

0:33:07 > 0:33:08pretty well there.

0:33:08 > 0:33:11- Wow!- £9 to £40, potentially.

0:33:11 > 0:33:12- Mm.- Which is exciting, isn't it?

0:33:12 > 0:33:16Now we have this gorgeous Worcester Caughley porcelain fisherman

0:33:16 > 0:33:19and cormorant teapot stand.

0:33:19 > 0:33:20- £20 to start.- Yes.

0:33:20 > 0:33:21Thank you, straight in.

0:33:21 > 0:33:2420. 22. 24.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26- Yes.- 26. 28.

0:33:26 > 0:33:2930. 32. 34. 36.

0:33:30 > 0:33:3334 in the room. 36. All over.

0:33:33 > 0:33:3538. 40. 42.

0:33:35 > 0:33:41- Look at this!- 44. 46. - This is your £9-worth.- 48.

0:33:41 > 0:33:4250.

0:33:42 > 0:33:4455.

0:33:44 > 0:33:4560. 65.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47No? £60 on my right.

0:33:47 > 0:33:4965 anywhere?

0:33:49 > 0:33:53- Good Lord.- Are we done at £60? It's a great lot.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55£60. All done?

0:33:55 > 0:33:57- Thank you, sir.- Yes!

0:33:57 > 0:33:59That's the way to go bargain hunting.

0:33:59 > 0:34:02- Anyway, that is plus £51... - Wow!

0:34:02 > 0:34:04..which is a cool way to start.

0:34:04 > 0:34:05plus £51. Wow!

0:34:05 > 0:34:07Stand by for your chest.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09What are these two worth?

0:34:09 > 0:34:1045 anywhere?

0:34:10 > 0:34:1245 on the net.

0:34:12 > 0:34:1450. 55.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16- £50 with Jeremy.- Oh...

0:34:16 > 0:34:17Come on!

0:34:17 > 0:34:1955. 60.

0:34:19 > 0:34:2155 with you, sir.

0:34:21 > 0:34:25£55. 60 anywhere? Thank you, sir. 60.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28- 65. Go on... - Go on!- 65, thank you, sir.

0:34:28 > 0:34:29Thanks, Tim!

0:34:29 > 0:34:3070.

0:34:30 > 0:34:3365 on the front row. 70 anywhere?

0:34:33 > 0:34:35- 70.- Quite right.

0:34:35 > 0:34:3675.

0:34:36 > 0:34:3875, sir?

0:34:38 > 0:34:43No? Are you sure? All done at £70...

0:34:44 > 0:34:47£70 is minus £15.

0:34:47 > 0:34:51The strategy did not hold up quite as well as it might have done.

0:34:51 > 0:34:56123 is the Edwardian silver-plated finger purse,

0:34:56 > 0:35:00with a pillbox depicting Reynolds angels.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02£10.

0:35:02 > 0:35:06- 10 - thank you, sir, very wise. 10. 12 anywhere?- Yes.

0:35:06 > 0:35:0812. 14. 16.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11Is that a bid? 16. 18.

0:35:11 > 0:35:1420. 22. 24. 26.

0:35:14 > 0:35:17- 28.- 28!- 30.

0:35:17 > 0:35:20- Well done, Stacey. You picked it.- Yeah.- 32. 34.

0:35:20 > 0:35:2436. 38. 40.

0:35:24 > 0:35:28- 42 anywhere? £40...- £40.

0:35:28 > 0:35:30- 42.- 42, now!

0:35:30 > 0:35:3242! God, it's going on.

0:35:32 > 0:35:3544. 46, anywhere?

0:35:35 > 0:35:39At £44... 46.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41Go on, one more - just one more.

0:35:41 > 0:35:44That's my motto. 46 on the net.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46All done at 46?

0:35:47 > 0:35:5246 is £21. plus £21 is 57.

0:35:52 > 0:35:54So, you are plus 57.

0:35:54 > 0:35:56- OK, kids, that's not bad, is it?- No!

0:35:56 > 0:35:58Now, what are you going to do about the diorama?

0:35:58 > 0:35:59We had an agreement, didn't we?

0:35:59 > 0:36:02We did agree that if we were in profit we weren't going to do it.

0:36:02 > 0:36:05If it goes and makes 80 or £100, how will you feel?

0:36:05 > 0:36:07- I would feel very gutted.- Would you?

0:36:07 > 0:36:10- I think we should go for it, you know?- Really?

0:36:10 > 0:36:11How much was it again?

0:36:11 > 0:36:16- £40.- Oh, go for it.- Yes!- I'm going to kill you if this loses.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19- Kill you!- It could ruin a friendship, Bargain Hunt!- Go for it.

0:36:19 > 0:36:21This is your friend, you know?

0:36:21 > 0:36:23I can't believe you just convinced me, but, yeah.

0:36:23 > 0:36:25- Well, you bought that silver stuff, so, you know.- I made us money.

0:36:25 > 0:36:28- Well, I might make us money! - OK, I'll trust you on this.

0:36:28 > 0:36:30What's this worth?

0:36:30 > 0:36:3440 quid to start. £40. Who's going to give...? Thank you, sir.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36- £40, very wise.- That's good.

0:36:36 > 0:36:3842 anywhere?

0:36:38 > 0:36:41£40 - surely that can't be it.

0:36:41 > 0:36:4242, thank you, sir.

0:36:50 > 0:36:52All done at £55?

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Can I squeeze another fiver?

0:36:54 > 0:36:55£55...

0:36:55 > 0:36:58£55 - that is plus 15.

0:36:58 > 0:36:59Sweet!

0:36:59 > 0:37:02- £72.- That's nice, isn't it? That's so good.

0:37:02 > 0:37:05I think I'm in the wrong profession, really.

0:37:05 > 0:37:06Really?

0:37:07 > 0:37:10Anyway, the thing is, now, don't say a word to the Blues, all right?

0:37:10 > 0:37:12- We won't.- Yeah.- Mum about that -

0:37:12 > 0:37:14- cos there's no point spoiling their day, right?- No way.

0:37:14 > 0:37:15OK. Super.

0:37:22 > 0:37:25So, guys, do you know how the girls got on?

0:37:25 > 0:37:26- No.- No.- No.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29- Did you pass them on your way in? - Yes, we did.- We bumped into them.

0:37:29 > 0:37:30Did they look confident?

0:37:30 > 0:37:32No, they said, "Glum face", they just went...

0:37:32 > 0:37:33- They looked glum?- Completely.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36- They just said...- Poker face. - "Poker face", she said. Poker face.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39Now, you really rate the toffee tin, don't you?

0:37:39 > 0:37:41THEY LAUGH

0:37:41 > 0:37:43And you paid £55.

0:37:43 > 0:37:45£55 too much, Tim.

0:37:45 > 0:37:49I don't think you did. She's estimated it at £20-30.

0:37:49 > 0:37:54Now we have 140, this lovely Hall's State Toffee tin.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56But there's more.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58Open the lid and it's an inkwell.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01Now, what's this gorgeous thing worth?

0:38:01 > 0:38:0220 to start me.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04Come along - £20. Thank you, sir, straight in.

0:38:26 > 0:38:27Oh...

0:38:27 > 0:38:30- Not too bad, I tell you! - It's not a bad loss.

0:38:30 > 0:38:32- minus £7 for that.- Oh, it's good.

0:38:32 > 0:38:34Now, here goes the scent bottle.

0:39:23 > 0:39:27142 is the 19th century decorative wooden inkstand.

0:39:27 > 0:39:30It says it's in the form of a gavel.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32It's a little less formidable than mine,

0:39:32 > 0:39:36but anyway, nonetheless, it's a great looking lot.

0:39:36 > 0:39:38£20 for the inkstand.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40£20. Come along, you've gone quiet!

0:40:12 > 0:40:13- Yes.- I think we are.- Definitely.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16- Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's all down to Natasha.- Decision's made.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23- What did you pay?- 30.- 30.

0:40:23 > 0:40:24- 30.- Yeah.

0:40:56 > 0:41:00It's plus £2 - it's better than we were two minutes ago, isn't it?

0:41:00 > 0:41:04So, that is plus £2, which means overall you're plus £22. Well done.

0:41:04 > 0:41:07Just don't say a thing to Reds, and all will be revealed in a moment.

0:41:14 > 0:41:16Well, it's not so often on Bargain Hunt

0:41:16 > 0:41:18that we get a double team of winners,

0:41:18 > 0:41:21because both teams today are going home with cash!

0:41:21 > 0:41:24How lovely is that? Now, have you been chatting to one another?

0:41:24 > 0:41:25- ALL:- No!

0:41:25 > 0:41:26We avoid each other.

0:41:26 > 0:41:28- You avoid each other!- Absolutely.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32Neither team has any idea who has got the maximum winnings.

0:41:32 > 0:41:37- No.- There's quite a gap between the two teams' winnings, though.- Ooh.

0:41:37 > 0:41:42And the team that is behind, I'm sorry to tell you,

0:41:42 > 0:41:43is the Blues.

0:41:43 > 0:41:45Aww.

0:41:45 > 0:41:47MARK CHUCKLES

0:41:47 > 0:41:50- You go home with £22.- Whoo(!)

0:41:50 > 0:41:52£11 each!

0:41:52 > 0:41:53- There we go.- Marvellous.

0:41:53 > 0:41:55- And very, very good luck with that. - Thank you.

0:41:55 > 0:41:59Didn't start off very well, did it? £7 down with the toffee tin.

0:41:59 > 0:42:04The £33 profit on the scent bottle was remarkable, I have to say.

0:42:04 > 0:42:06You went with the bonus buy,

0:42:06 > 0:42:09- that lovely atomiser made you a couple of squids.- It did, yeah.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11So, overall, you're 22 and very, very happy, I guess.

0:42:11 > 0:42:12Absolutely, yes.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15- Well, marvellous.- Amazed! - A great success all round.

0:42:15 > 0:42:18Just not good enough today to beat the lovely Reds,

0:42:18 > 0:42:20who go home with £72!

0:42:20 > 0:42:21THEY CHEER

0:42:21 > 0:42:23- Look at these faces!- Thank you!

0:42:23 > 0:42:28£51 on that teapot stand, which they paid £9 for.

0:42:28 > 0:42:33I mean, how do you pay £9 for something and take a £51 profit?

0:42:33 > 0:42:36- Just talent. Sheer talent. - Just talent.

0:42:36 > 0:42:39You went with the nautical diorama, even though you loathed it...

0:42:39 > 0:42:41- Yep.- ..which made you another profit of £15.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43- Thank you, Mark. - Thanks to Mark Stacey.

0:42:43 > 0:42:47Good egg. And that finger purse - how did that make £21?

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Anyway, plus £72 is an achievement.

0:42:49 > 0:42:51- In fact, the whole day is an achievement.- Yes!

0:42:51 > 0:42:53I congratulate all of you - so much

0:42:53 > 0:42:57so that you really ought to join us soon, for some bargain hunting, yes?

0:42:57 > 0:42:58ALL: Yes!
