0:00:02 > 0:00:04Bore da! Oh, no. Prynhawn da pawb.

0:00:04 > 0:00:07Good afternoon, everyone. We're in North Wales.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09Well, back to normal.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11Let's go Bargain Hunting!

0:00:34 > 0:00:37Bargain Hunt is in Anglesey.

0:00:37 > 0:00:42We're at the Great North Wales Antique and Collectors Fair.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44But if you want to discover

0:00:44 > 0:00:47what our teams are going to uncover in this lot...

0:00:47 > 0:00:48Ha!

0:00:48 > 0:00:51..you're just going to have to wait and see.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56Coming up, the Blues drive their expert to distraction.

0:00:56 > 0:00:59I am going to go and lie down in a darkened room now.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03And what's this? Has Anita gone native?

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Mae'n braf fod yma.

0:01:07 > 0:01:08That's all coming up.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11First of all, though, let me remind you of the rules.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14Each team gets £300 and an hour to shop for three items

0:01:14 > 0:01:17and the team wins that makes the most profit at auction.

0:01:17 > 0:01:19Simple, innit?

0:01:19 > 0:01:21Now, let's go and meet the teams.

0:01:24 > 0:01:28Well, we're keeping it in the family way today, so as to speak,

0:01:28 > 0:01:29because, for the Reds,

0:01:29 > 0:01:34we have got Becky and Frank, mother-and-son combo,

0:01:34 > 0:01:40and for the Blues, we've got Peter and Peapea or, should I say, Pea.

0:01:40 > 0:01:41Welcome, everybody.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43- ALL:- Hello, Tim. - Very nice to see you.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Now, you two, how are you going to get on in today's show?

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Oh, we think we could do quite well.

0:01:49 > 0:01:55We get on very well together as mother and son. We hardly ever argue.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Erm, so, yes, I think we should do OK.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00It says you describe yourselves as "best friends".

0:02:00 > 0:02:02- Yes, definitely.- Pretty much so.

0:02:02 > 0:02:03He keeps me in check.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06So what do you do for a living, then, Mum?

0:02:06 > 0:02:10I've got my own shop in Ruthin in Denbighshire,

0:02:10 > 0:02:12and in my shop, we sell everything

0:02:12 > 0:02:15that's either recycled, locally made or Fairtrade.

0:02:15 > 0:02:19- So are you quite a green person, then?- Yes. Yeah, have to be. My husband's an eco-scientist,

0:02:19 > 0:02:23- so we don't get a choice in the matter.- No, quite right, too.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Frank, you're in the middle of your studies, old fruit. Tell us about that.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Yes, I'm at Ysgol Brynhyfryd,

0:02:28 > 0:02:31studying psychology, biology and physics.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Are you?- It's all very sciencey.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- Are you doing that at A-level, then, are you?- Yes.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39- And have you decided what you're going to specialise in? - I have no idea, to be honest,

0:02:39 > 0:02:42but I'm looking to follow up the field of psychology.

0:02:42 > 0:02:45I haven't entirely ruled out being a musician, a rock star.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49- No, naturally. Are you looking forward to this competition, Frank? - Yes, I am.

0:02:49 > 0:02:52We're very much looking forward to seeing how you get on. Good luck.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Now for the Blues.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57So how do you two think you'll get on on today's show?

0:02:57 > 0:02:59Fine, fine. We've got very similar interests.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02We don't argue amongst each other very much,

0:03:02 > 0:03:04so we shouldn't have a problem, really.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07I think we might have a little bit of argy-bargy, though.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09A little bit of, you know, "discussion".

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Funny you should say that, Pea.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14- You look a bit mischievous to me. - Oh.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16What do you like to collect, Peter?

0:03:16 > 0:03:18I've got a collection of American silver dollars,

0:03:18 > 0:03:20most bought ten or 15 years ago.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23What's it with dollars? What do you like about those?

0:03:23 > 0:03:25I just got one, then I got two

0:03:25 > 0:03:27and every year, they produce a new one.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30All the coins are worth at least twice as much as I paid for them.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32So they've been an investment?

0:03:32 > 0:03:33Well, I hope so, yeah.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- You're quite shrewd and canny, aren't you, Pete?- I think so.

0:03:37 > 0:03:41Now, Pea, I assume your name is an assumed name, is it?

0:03:41 > 0:03:42It is.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45Because I don't like the name my parents gave me.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48- Which was what? You going to own up to it?- Oh, do I have to?

0:03:48 > 0:03:49Yeah, go on.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52- Jane.- So what don't you like about Jane, then?

0:03:52 > 0:03:55- I think it's just boring. - Yeah?- Yeah.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57- And where did Pea come from? - From my husband.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59I met him about 18 years ago

0:03:59 > 0:04:02and he just started calling me Sweet Pea as a little joke.

0:04:02 > 0:04:03How sweet!

0:04:03 > 0:04:05Then it shortened to Pea.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Peter, do you call her Pea?- No. THEY LAUGH

0:04:08 > 0:04:10And what do you do for a living, Pea?

0:04:10 > 0:04:13Most of the time, I'm a ceramic artist.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16So, I make objects in clay, mainly figures.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18I do paint a little bit as well.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20But I teach ceramics - two days a week usually -

0:04:20 > 0:04:23- and I do workshops.- Fantastic.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25- You're going to have fun today? - Yeah. I'm excited.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29We're going to have fun today. First, though, the money moment.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Your £300 apiece. You know the rules.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35Your experts await. And off you go and very, very, very good luck!

0:04:35 > 0:04:40Well, I've never had a contestant called Pea before.

0:04:40 > 0:04:42But we always have two sweet peas as experts.

0:04:44 > 0:04:49Helping two sets of Reds, it's our jewel in the crown, Anita Manning.

0:04:49 > 0:04:53Hoping to keep the Blues from getting lost is Jonathan Pratt.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58- Do we have any tactics?- Open mind.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01- What do you want to buy? - Eh, silverware.

0:05:01 > 0:05:03What period do you like?

0:05:03 > 0:05:05I'm Art Nouveau, turn of the century.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08Some ceramics, but that's Jane's field rather than mine.

0:05:08 > 0:05:12- I don't know anything about old ceramics.- Neither do I. Let's look.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16- I like Art Deco.- So you're a pair with bags of style?- Oh, yes!

0:05:16 > 0:05:18When you say it's way out of your price range,

0:05:18 > 0:05:21is it haggleable or way, way out?

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Everything's haggleable.

0:05:23 > 0:05:26- Is that a real word? - "Haggleable"?- 'Well, it is now.'

0:05:26 > 0:05:29- I'm just thinking it's too Welsh. - Too Welsh?

0:05:29 > 0:05:31- IN WELSH ACCENT:- You can never be too Welsh.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Well, we are in Wales, after all!

0:05:35 > 0:05:39- Now, I know you like the Art Deco period.- Yes.

0:05:39 > 0:05:44And, to me, that epitomises Art Deco.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Definitely.- It's bird's eye maple

0:05:47 > 0:05:53- and that curved shape of it is absolutely lovely.- Beautiful.

0:05:53 > 0:05:55Marked up at?

0:05:55 > 0:05:58- 30.- £30.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00So stylish.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03It would fit in in a modern home, wouldn't it?

0:06:03 > 0:06:07Shall I asked the lady how much could...

0:06:07 > 0:06:12What we are looking to do... I mean, it's not bad at 30,

0:06:12 > 0:06:18but we're really wanting to get it kind of round about 20.

0:06:18 > 0:06:23- 20?- 18-20.- We could get it for less. So, offer about 15.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26- Ask her.- What the very best is.

0:06:26 > 0:06:31What the very best and then she'll come in and then... Let's see.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33- Hello.- Hello.

0:06:33 > 0:06:37What is the very, very best you could do a map for us, please?

0:06:37 > 0:06:40Eh, 30... I'll go down to 25.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44- Can you go...- 20 and that's my very best offer.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48- Can we push you for 18?- No! Definitely not.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51- 20, Anita? - I think it's a beautiful thing.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54I think it's gorgeous, absolutely stunning.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56It's got bags of style, just like yourself.

0:06:56 > 0:06:58SHE LAUGHS

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Definitely. Thank you. Shake on it.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04Wonderful. Thank you.

0:07:04 > 0:07:07Sealed with a kiss. Or two.

0:07:07 > 0:07:12So, boys and girls, that's one down, one in the bag.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15- You have been wonderful.- Thank you.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18We've got bags of time, we've got bags of time.

0:07:18 > 0:07:21Don't get too relaxed, Reds. The clock's still ticking.

0:07:21 > 0:07:23What have the Blues got cooking?

0:07:23 > 0:07:27- You like your kitchenalia, don't you?- I do like kitchenalia.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30They're produced for using, so a reproduction isn't a reproduction,

0:07:30 > 0:07:34it's just a modern version for the same sort of use, I suppose.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Looking at the bottom there, that looks a little more modern.

0:07:37 > 0:07:39From the 19th-Century jelly...

0:07:39 > 0:07:43- They're not jelly, sort of pate moulds and things like that, aren't they?- OK.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46I think these are a little modern. I wouldn't buy them myself.

0:07:46 > 0:07:49- We could see how much they are. - If you really like them.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52Ask her how old she thinks they are. Find out something.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55I mean, by all means, use your own...judgement.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58- I can then wash my hands of it. - Tut-tut, JP.

0:07:58 > 0:08:04- What would be the price for just buying these two?- I've got 22.

0:08:04 > 0:08:0812 and ten. So if I said 18 on the pair?

0:08:08 > 0:08:11How old do you think they are? Are they modern-ish?

0:08:11 > 0:08:14- No, they are old ones. Definitely Victorian.- Do you think Victorian?

0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Definitely.- Could we offer you 15?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Um... Yes, I suppose you could.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23My advice to you is...your decision.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26- If you like 'em, you go for them. - We're going to buy them.- Sold!

0:08:26 > 0:08:31Right. An item apiece. And the competition is hotting up.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35Do you know, oh, blimey, I forgot I was actually up against Anita.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38I caught sight of Jonathan earlier on

0:08:38 > 0:08:41and he was talking, talking, talking.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45He's a very persuasive man, as well as being very good-looking.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49Anita's always calm and, you know, never going to be a problem.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52And I expect she'll just say, "We'll just buy that, anyway."

0:08:52 > 0:08:55So we've got a real game on. A real game on.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58He might be quite a tough opponent to beat.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03- Nothing that particularly catches my eye.- No.

0:09:03 > 0:09:05You sure you're not interested in that?

0:09:05 > 0:09:08- I'm sure. I'm absolutely 100%.- OK.

0:09:08 > 0:09:12- Look at that lady up there. - A bit naughty, that, you know.

0:09:12 > 0:09:16Looks like Peter and Pea have given Jonathan the slip,

0:09:16 > 0:09:19while the Reds are sticking close to their expert.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22That's an interesting lump. What have you got there, Anita?

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Well, it's a piece of 20th-Century glass

0:09:25 > 0:09:28and I particularly like this type of thing.

0:09:28 > 0:09:34- Yes.- If we look at that, look at that lovely big oil drop there.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37And I like the asymmetric shapes.

0:09:37 > 0:09:41- It's a very good shape.- It's sort of young stuff again, isn't it?

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Again, yeah, it's quite modern, in a way.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47Do you know the designer's name on this one?

0:09:47 > 0:09:50There's no maker's mark at all.

0:09:50 > 0:09:54- Have you been over it with a fine tooth-comb?- Yes. It's perfect.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57We think it is Murano, but we're not 100% sure.

0:09:57 > 0:10:01- Uh-huh. OK.- It's certainly one that we would think about, isn't it?

0:10:01 > 0:10:04- Yes.- So, keep that in mind.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05That's not massive.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08It's not very big. Well, it's small on you.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10Have you got a big head?

0:10:10 > 0:10:14Yes. I do have a reasonably-sized barnet.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16There we go. Look.

0:10:16 > 0:10:20I wouldn't. I personally wouldn't.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22If you're going to buy silver, it's got to be novelty.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25It's got to be rare makers, so...

0:10:25 > 0:10:28I probably wouldn't.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31- Are you all right with the camera? - What's the sledge?

0:10:31 > 0:10:33What's that?

0:10:33 > 0:10:36- Is that a coal thing? - Think about what's good to buy.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39- I love that!- Do you really? That's a little breakfast dish.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41- It's quite a nice thing. - Yeah, it is.

0:10:43 > 0:10:44- Let's get moving.- Right, OK.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47En avant, as they say in France.

0:10:47 > 0:10:51The Blues are taking a laissez-faire "haw-hee-haw" approach.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55They need to focus. The Reds, though, have taken the bull by the horns.

0:10:55 > 0:11:00- The bull?- The bull. - Yeah, it's lovely.- Is he silver?

0:11:00 > 0:11:02No, it's Dansk. I think it's plated.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05Looks like it should be on a car bonnet.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07SHE LAUGHS Possibly.

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Can you tell us anything about it?

0:11:10 > 0:11:14Haven't got a clue. I haven't got a clue, I'll be perfectly honest.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18It's just an ornament, isn't it? Um...Danish?

0:11:18 > 0:11:23- But it is plate and it is modern. - It is. Yeah, I'm not arguing!

0:11:23 > 0:11:27- What sort of price? - I've got 20 on it.

0:11:27 > 0:11:29I do like stylised animals.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31- Make me an offer, then.- Fiver.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34Excuse me! That's not on offer. Harsh.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37That's bringing tears to my eyes. THEY LAUGH

0:11:37 > 0:11:38Try again.

0:11:38 > 0:11:43- Come on.- A wee bit... - A little bit more, perhaps.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46- What's the very, very best you could do?- Go on.

0:11:46 > 0:11:51- Make me a really, really fair offer. - Eight?- Ten.

0:11:51 > 0:11:55Ten and I'll go. Go on. It's worth a chance at ten. How's that?

0:11:55 > 0:11:58- How about nine? Meet us in the middle?- No, ten!

0:11:58 > 0:12:01Come on! I like even figures.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03That's nice.

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Mum and son.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08- Mum's in charge...as always. - I know. I don't look old enough.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12Well, you're doing very well. There we are. Thanks, mate.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Oh, my team are wonderful. We've spent a little time

0:12:20 > 0:12:22and we've bought two items.

0:12:22 > 0:12:27Anita's fantastic. She's been guiding us really well, hasn't she?

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Yes. She's right on the ball.

0:12:29 > 0:12:31But they're a great team.

0:12:31 > 0:12:35- Yeah, we'd be lost without her. - Truly lost!

0:12:35 > 0:12:37It's not going very well at the moment.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39We've got one item in 34 minutes,

0:12:39 > 0:12:41so we're getting a bit panicky now.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44I think Pea is starting to panic a little bit and she's going,

0:12:44 > 0:12:48"What about this?" Every single object she looks at, "What about this?"

0:12:48 > 0:12:51Unless I get guidance, I don't know what to pick up.

0:12:51 > 0:12:55Jonathan's OK when he's here. He seems to wander off a lot.

0:12:55 > 0:13:01Mutiny in those Blue ranks. While Anita is on a charm offensive.

0:13:01 > 0:13:04You're a Welsh speaker. Say something in Welsh.

0:13:04 > 0:13:05SHE SPEAKS IN WELSH

0:13:05 > 0:13:07HE SPEAKS IN WELSH

0:13:07 > 0:13:09SHE SPEAKS IN WELSH

0:13:09 > 0:13:11HE SPEAKS IN WELSH

0:13:11 > 0:13:15- What did you say to him?- I hope you enjoy.- Oh, right. That's nice.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18- "Croeso" is "welcome".- Uh-huh.

0:13:18 > 0:13:23- Coesau?- Croeso.- "Coesau" is legs! - THEY LAUGH

0:13:23 > 0:13:25Croeso i Gymru - Welcome to Wales.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28Aw. How do you say, "Thank you and it's lovely to be here?"

0:13:28 > 0:13:30Diolch yn fawr. Mae'n hyfryd i fod yma.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33- A bit slower. A bit slower. - Diolch yn fawr.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Diolch yn fawr.

0:13:35 > 0:13:37Mae'n hyfryd i fod yma.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Mae'n hyfryd i fod yma.

0:13:39 > 0:13:43- Fod yma.- Fod yma. - THEY LAUGH

0:13:43 > 0:13:46Stick to the antiques, Anita! Now, back to business.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48I like beaten metalwork.

0:13:48 > 0:13:52Arts and crafts is one of my favourite periods.

0:13:52 > 0:13:57Here we have this, it's almost like a mythical creature.

0:13:57 > 0:14:00I really like it, whether it's a bit too expensive, I'm not sure.

0:14:00 > 0:14:03- It looks like a kind of a dragon to me.- It is a type of a dragon.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05I'm not sure, to be honest.

0:14:05 > 0:14:09A reflection of Anita Manning - what could be nicer?

0:14:09 > 0:14:12- How much is this?- 120. - Seems a bit steep to me.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- You think that's a bit much? - I don't know.

0:14:15 > 0:14:19- It's a wacky thing.- It is. - It's certainly unusual.

0:14:19 > 0:14:21- Anyway, good luck. - Thank you.- Thank you.

0:14:21 > 0:14:25Thank goodness the Blues have kissed and made up.

0:14:25 > 0:14:29- Seems a lot for £25.- It depends if they're silver spoons.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32Even if they're not silver, it seems a lot.

0:14:32 > 0:14:37Some of these might be silver... They're probably not. No.

0:14:37 > 0:14:43- No? OK.- I'd buy that, myself. - Would you?

0:14:43 > 0:14:45- It's up to you. - At the end of the day,

0:14:45 > 0:14:49someone like yourself may bid on it. You have to buy what you like.

0:14:49 > 0:14:52- OK. Go and ask the stallholder. - You ask.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54- Is this yours?- Yes.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Would you take £15?

0:14:57 > 0:15:00- Oh, I should think so.- Would you? - Yes, I would.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Thank you, we'll take that.

0:15:02 > 0:15:06The Blues have evened the score, and even Anita's at it again.

0:15:06 > 0:15:10- Tell me how to say "thank you" again.- Diolch yn fawr.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14- Diolch yn fawr, gentlemen.- Not bad! MAN: You're very welcome!

0:15:16 > 0:15:19- I love that! - HONK!

0:15:19 > 0:15:24- I love that. - Put it away and get buying, Blues!

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Excuse me, sir. It's us again.

0:15:26 > 0:15:32- We've been all round, and they still like this.- It's drawing us back.

0:15:32 > 0:15:36- It's drawing them back. - But we haven't got many pennies.

0:15:36 > 0:15:41- What would be your best on that, your very best?- My best...

0:15:41 > 0:15:43What's on it now? 45.

0:15:43 > 0:15:45I'll do it for 30.

0:15:45 > 0:15:49- 27?- 30.- Hard push, here.

0:15:49 > 0:15:53- 28?- 28, then, I'll take it.

0:15:54 > 0:15:59- Diolch yn fawr! - Thank you very much.- Diolch.

0:15:59 > 0:16:02Diolch.

0:16:03 > 0:16:08Well done, Anita! The Welsh lessons have paid off. But the Blues are talking at cross purposes.

0:16:08 > 0:16:16- Would you take 140? - No. It would have to be 160.

0:16:16 > 0:16:21- What do you think, for 160?- Crikey.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25It's very collectable, it is very collectable.

0:16:25 > 0:16:31- They are hideous things. - I love them!

0:16:31 > 0:16:35- But that's a massive, massive investment.- It is.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38- If I offer a kiss and a cuddle, what would you take?- 150.

0:16:38 > 0:16:43- Would you take 145?- No. - Would you take 148?

0:16:43 > 0:16:47- And I'll give you a cuddle and a kiss.- Go on, then, 148!

0:16:50 > 0:16:53Congratulations, that is very well done.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55Thank you, thank you, thank you.

0:16:55 > 0:17:00I'm going to go and lie down in a darkened room now. I need to relax.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03Poor Jonathan's a delicate flower, you know.

0:17:05 > 0:17:08Right, that's it. You've had your 60 minutes

0:17:08 > 0:17:11and now it's time to sell.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13And we've hopped over the border to Cheshire,

0:17:13 > 0:17:14to the Frank Marshall saleroom,

0:17:14 > 0:17:17but first let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20The lovely maple letter rack should deliver a profit.

0:17:20 > 0:17:23It was a first-class deal, at £20.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28They paid £10 for the little silver-plated bull paperweight,

0:17:28 > 0:17:31but will it charge ahead at auction?

0:17:31 > 0:17:35And they went back, for this modern studio glass vase,

0:17:35 > 0:17:39but with no maker's mark, will it top the £28 paid?

0:17:41 > 0:17:46Team, you spent a miserable £58. I mean, how could you do that?

0:17:46 > 0:17:49- I do apologise profusely. - No need to apologise.

0:17:49 > 0:17:53You'll probably do well, having gone down the minimalist route!

0:17:53 > 0:17:57£242 went to the lovely Anita Manning. What did you spend it on?

0:17:59 > 0:18:01- Ooh!- Oh! - THEY LAUGH

0:18:01 > 0:18:06- Isn't it cute!- It's got a little face inside.- I loved it.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08He's so sweet!

0:18:08 > 0:18:13It's a walrus with a little child's face peeping out!

0:18:13 > 0:18:19- Now, this intrigued me. Has the walrus eaten the child? - THEY GIGGLE

0:18:19 > 0:18:25Or is the walrus skin protecting the child from the cold?

0:18:25 > 0:18:29- I didn't know, but it tickled me to think about it.- It's just so sweet.

0:18:29 > 0:18:33- May I?- Yes, of course.- How old is he, do you think, Anita?

0:18:33 > 0:18:38I think it's late 19th century, early 20th century.

0:18:38 > 0:18:43- And it's perhaps based on a myth. - It's certainly a talking point, isn't it?

0:18:43 > 0:18:47- How much did you spend, dare I ask? - There's the rub.

0:18:47 > 0:18:53Em, the trader liked it, I liked it, he knew I liked it.

0:18:53 > 0:18:58And he wouldn't come any further down than £150.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02And I was in a flibbertigibbet mood, so I decided just to go for it.

0:19:04 > 0:19:09On the basis that somebody else might have the same emotion today in the sale.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Of course. - I've never seen anything like it.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14It's one of the most bizarre things I've seen.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17Well done, just on amusement factor!

0:19:17 > 0:19:21Well, the Reds can decide after the sale of their three items.

0:19:21 > 0:19:22Now for the Blues.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26And let's remind ourselves what the team bought with their £300.

0:19:26 > 0:19:32Pea went all wobbly over these glazed jelly moulds, for £15.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35But will the bidders have a sweet tooth on the day?

0:19:35 > 0:19:40This case full of sparkling spoons caught Peter's eye. Again, £15.

0:19:40 > 0:19:45With seconds to spare, Pea couldn't resist this Palissy ware jug,

0:19:45 > 0:19:47though Lord knows why!

0:19:47 > 0:19:51At £148, it could prove to be their undoing.

0:19:53 > 0:19:55- This is exciting, isn't it?- Yes.

0:19:55 > 0:19:59Are your longing to know what JP spent the £122 of leftover lolly on?

0:19:59 > 0:20:04- Yes, definitely.- You, too?- Yes. - OK, put them out of their agony!

0:20:06 > 0:20:07Oooh...

0:20:07 > 0:20:09- Not very big.- Not very big.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11What we have here

0:20:11 > 0:20:17is a little silver mounted, silver-covered table lighter.

0:20:17 > 0:20:23You have a certain amount of silver, which has a certain amount of weight and value to that alone.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26- How much did I pay for it? - Go on.- £30.- OK.

0:20:26 > 0:20:31The silver alone would probably sell for... There's £35 to £40 of silver.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Is it a working lighter?

0:20:33 > 0:20:39- I imagine it needs gas and a flint, but I'm sure you can.- I like that.

0:20:39 > 0:20:43- Jonathan, do you see this as a sure-fire profit?- Yes.

0:20:43 > 0:20:46Handy for a lighter, having a sure-fire profit!

0:20:46 > 0:20:49- There must be £30 in the silver itself.- There's more than that.

0:20:49 > 0:20:53- There's £35 to £40 worth of silver. - OK, we watched his lips.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56You know you can trust this man.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58You'd even buy a car from him, probably.

0:20:58 > 0:20:59Trustworthy or not,

0:20:59 > 0:21:03it's the Blues' decision after the sale of their first three items.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06And talking of sale, we're off to auction.

0:21:06 > 0:21:11- Frank, Becky, how are you feeling? - Stressed.- Where's the stress?

0:21:11 > 0:21:16- Look at this room, jammed up with people who came here to buy your items.- If only!

0:21:16 > 0:21:22- First up, the three-division rack. Here it comes. Good luck.- Lot 50.

0:21:22 > 0:21:24I've got commission interest.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28I can start the bidding straight in here at 22, 25, £28.

0:21:28 > 0:21:35At £28. 30, 32, 5 with you? 35, lady seated. At £35 in the room.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38Any advance? At £35, lady seated. All done at 35.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41- BANGS GAVEL - Yes!- Well done.

0:21:41 > 0:21:44Plus £15. That's a very good start.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46Now, the Japanese sculpture.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49That's your fault, this one!

0:21:49 > 0:21:52- AUCTIONEER:- I've got commission interest. I can come straight in

0:21:52 > 0:21:54at 10, 15, 18, 20, 22, 25, 28.

0:21:54 > 0:21:58£28, I'm starting. Straight in at £28.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Commission bid is with me. At £28. Any advance?

0:22:00 > 0:22:06- At 28, 30. 35 I have. - I don't believe this!- Give me 38?

0:22:06 > 0:22:10Squeeze a bit more. I've got 35. 38 is with you. I'm out. It's your bid.

0:22:10 > 0:22:15At £38. If you're all sure. I'm selling with you, at £38.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19Well done, that's amazing! Plus £28 on that.

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Plus £28, 38... You're plus 43 already!

0:22:22 > 0:22:27Antiques of the future. £20? At 20, somewhere? Somewhere, surely.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30Thank you. Front row, £20 bid. You bidding online?

0:22:30 > 0:22:36There's a flutter. I've got £20 in the room. Give me 5. 25, thank you.

0:22:36 > 0:22:3930, thank you. Front row at £30. You listening online?

0:22:39 > 0:22:44It's against you. We're all waiting for you. £30 in the room.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47At 30. 35, thank you. Don't lose it, you'll like it.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49It's a nice vase! I'll take 38.

0:22:49 > 0:22:52I love that man!

0:22:52 > 0:22:5438 in the front row? Thank you.

0:22:54 > 0:22:59£38 in the front row. I'm looking for 40. 40 online. At £40.

0:22:59 > 0:23:03You know I'm coming back to you. At £40, are you finished?

0:23:03 > 0:23:08OK, thank you, I've got £40 online. I'm selling online. At £40.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12- £40.- Yes! Thank you!

0:23:12 > 0:23:17So, £12 on that. 42...53...£55.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20Plus 55. Well, I eat my words.

0:23:20 > 0:23:26- Do the happy dance. Sorry.- You spent £58, which I criticised roundly.

0:23:26 > 0:23:32You just made £55 profit, having spent £58.

0:23:32 > 0:23:35You've doubled your money. This is amazing.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38What are we going to do about the earthenware boy?

0:23:38 > 0:23:40- We're not going there. - I beg your pardon?

0:23:40 > 0:23:46I absolutely adore him, but we said if we made more than a fiver, we were sticking. Sorry, Anita.

0:23:46 > 0:23:49- No, no.- You don't need to phone anybody or anything? No?

0:23:49 > 0:23:52- No.- All right, that seems to be a firm decision.

0:23:52 > 0:23:56They're not going to go with the bonus buy. But we'll sell it just to see what happens.

0:23:56 > 0:24:02- Here it comes.- Who's bidding on this lot? Come on. Unusual item, this.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Good glaze as well. 50 for it? £50, someone? 40? Show willing. At £40?

0:24:06 > 0:24:11It's a nice rare little piece. A good bit of porcelain. £40? 40 bid?

0:24:11 > 0:24:1630? Don't make me beg! At £30. Where are you? Where's the bids at 30?

0:24:16 > 0:24:21Come on, let's get this lot sold and move on. 30 I'm bid online.

0:24:21 > 0:24:275, 40. We're there, we're stuck at £45 online, if you're sure. 50, 5.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30All done, you sure? I'm selling online at £55.

0:24:30 > 0:24:35- Yes!- £55. Bad luck, Anita. - Sorry, Anita.

0:24:35 > 0:24:40It was a piece of frivolous buying, on my part. But I enjoyed him.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43- I bet you're glad you didn't go with it.- Just a bit.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45Minus £95, that would have been.

0:24:45 > 0:24:49Overall, you didn't go for the bonus buy. You preserved your £55 profit,

0:24:49 > 0:24:53with a profit on all three items, which could be a winning score.

0:24:53 > 0:24:55Just don't tell the Blues a thing, right?

0:25:01 > 0:25:06- So, Pea, Peter, do you know how the Reds got on?- No.- No.- No?

0:25:06 > 0:25:09They passed us in the corridor, but that's it.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13- Did they look confident?- No, no. - Rather sad?- Unable to say.- OK.

0:25:13 > 0:25:16First up are the jelly moulds.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19- Let's see if you can get into a quiver.- Lot 71.

0:25:19 > 0:25:24Who's up for jelly and ice-cream on this? We're going to go £20?

0:25:24 > 0:25:2610 for the two. Where's £10? 10 online. Thank you.

0:25:26 > 0:25:30At £10, the bid's online. At a tenner. At 10 only.

0:25:30 > 0:25:33Any advance on £10? You all done? Are you sure?

0:25:33 > 0:25:36Parties are going to finish early, then. At £10.

0:25:36 > 0:25:41- Selling at 10 online. 10, it sold. - All the children will cry.

0:25:41 > 0:25:43- Minus £5.- Now the ace.

0:25:43 > 0:25:4610 I'm bid in the front row, thank you. 10 I'm bid. 10 offered.

0:25:46 > 0:25:52You get the cabinet AND the spoons. £10 only? At a tenner? £10.

0:25:52 > 0:25:5715 at the back. 20 in front. At 20. Still going to go, sir? 5, I have.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Right at the back at £25. I'll take 28 with you, madam, if it helps.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06What about 26? I've got 25. At 25 it is, right at the back.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10Gent standing. All done? No-one online. It's with you. At 25 it is.

0:26:10 > 0:26:13Well done, Pete. You were right, we were all wrong!

0:26:13 > 0:26:16Plus £10. That means you are plus £5.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19What's going to happen with the Palissy jug?

0:26:19 > 0:26:24So where are we going to go? 70? 60? 50? Come on, where's £50?

0:26:24 > 0:26:26At £50, where's the collectors?

0:26:26 > 0:26:32Are you bidding? 50 quid. 5 in the room. And 5, 60. 5, 70.

0:26:32 > 0:26:3775 has it back in the room. Anyone else? At 75, right at the back.

0:26:37 > 0:26:41All done... 80 online. 85 with you, sir. 90 here.

0:26:41 > 0:26:455 with you, thank you, sir. 95 back in the room. 100 online.

0:26:45 > 0:26:50Still in? 110 with you. 110, I'll take. At 110, back in the room.

0:26:50 > 0:26:53Gent standing, at 110. 120 here. 120, I have.

0:26:53 > 0:26:57Last call, selling online at £120. All done?

0:26:57 > 0:27:01What a shame. Minus £28, which means overall

0:27:01 > 0:27:03you are minus £23.

0:27:03 > 0:27:07- That's not bad.- What are you going to do with this cigarette lighter?

0:27:07 > 0:27:10- Go for it.- Yeah, we're definitely going for it.- Definitely.

0:27:10 > 0:27:14- Good buy, from Jonathan. - Where we going to go? £40, surely.

0:27:14 > 0:27:1840, 30, 20. We're going the wrong way! 20 I'm bid. Where's 5?

0:27:18 > 0:27:25- 20. At 25, thank you, madam. 30, 5. 40, 5. 50, 5.- Go, Jonathan.

0:27:25 > 0:27:32£55, with you. Any advance? Anyone else? 55 it is. At 55, all done?

0:27:32 > 0:27:37- I don't believe it.- There we go. - £55 gives you £25 profit,

0:27:37 > 0:27:40which means, overall, you are plus £2!

0:27:40 > 0:27:46You just made £1 each! This is wonderful, this programme, isn't it?

0:27:46 > 0:27:50The money we've got to share around, £1 each profit! Is that good?

0:27:50 > 0:27:52Cash winnings.

0:27:52 > 0:27:54Just as well you've got a decent expert with you!

0:27:54 > 0:27:57Both teams in profit today, but the Reds' £55

0:27:57 > 0:28:02was a touch ahead of the Blues. They have today's winning score.

0:28:04 > 0:28:08Coming up, will our next two teams fare any better? We'll see.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12Meanwhile, I'm off to a castle - Eastnor Castle.

0:28:16 > 0:28:22Eastnor Castle in Herefordshire is a fine, fine property.

0:28:22 > 0:28:24Built in the early 19th century,

0:28:24 > 0:28:30it's home to the Hervey-Bathurst family and it's still in private hands,

0:28:30 > 0:28:35having been passed on from generation to generation.

0:28:46 > 0:28:49Cor, look at this!

0:28:50 > 0:28:52- Cuckoo! - ECHOING

0:28:53 > 0:28:56A vast, cavernous space,

0:28:56 > 0:29:01constructed in the style of a great mediaeval hall.

0:29:01 > 0:29:08The original intention was to use this large space to display arms

0:29:08 > 0:29:15and armour, in the same way that a real mediaeval castle would have done.

0:29:15 > 0:29:21Indeed, today, we've still got 12 suits of three-quarter armour,

0:29:21 > 0:29:24which is not incomplete,

0:29:24 > 0:29:28it simply is armour that would have been worn on horseback,

0:29:28 > 0:29:31and you don't need the protection below the knee.

0:29:31 > 0:29:36The two complete sets of armour at this end of the Great Hall

0:29:36 > 0:29:38date from around 1520.

0:29:38 > 0:29:45And they are described as being "Emperor Maximilian I style".

0:29:46 > 0:29:53It was in the Victorian period that interest in arms and armour seriously took off.

0:29:53 > 0:29:57Indeed, collectors vied with one another frantically,

0:29:57 > 0:30:03to buy groups of arms and armour, and the 3rd Earl described himself

0:30:03 > 0:30:09as "having the disease quite badly", which he described as "armouritis".

0:30:09 > 0:30:13You can see what he means, when looking around the Red Inner Hall.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19Back over the Menai Bridge to Anglesey,

0:30:19 > 0:30:23and we're at the Great North Wales Antiques and Collectors Fair

0:30:23 > 0:30:26to see whether our next two teams can pick up three objects

0:30:26 > 0:30:28capable of making a profit at auction.

0:30:30 > 0:30:36- For the Reds we've got mother and daughter combo, Delia and Alaw. - Hello.- Nice to see you.

0:30:36 > 0:30:40- And for the Blues we've got Richard and Danny. Morning, guys.- Morning.

0:30:40 > 0:30:41Lovely to see you.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Now, girls...

0:30:43 > 0:30:45Delia, you've been an extremely busy mother,

0:30:45 > 0:30:48raising four children and working continuously.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50- Is that right? - I've got four children.

0:30:50 > 0:30:54Two daughters, Alaw and Mari, and two sons, William and Ifan.

0:30:54 > 0:30:56And you have been working through it all?

0:30:56 > 0:30:59- Yes, unfortunately. - Four children?- Working full-time.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01And what job do you do?

0:31:01 > 0:31:03Well, when they were little,

0:31:03 > 0:31:06I was a district nurse midwife on the Llyn Peninsula,

0:31:06 > 0:31:08which was a really lovely job.

0:31:08 > 0:31:10What do you like to do outside work?

0:31:10 > 0:31:15When I have a bit of free time, I like the open air as well.

0:31:15 > 0:31:21We live around the corner to the beach, so I've got a kayak I can drag into the sea.

0:31:21 > 0:31:26Recently, I've also joined Cor Eifionydd, which is a mixed choir.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28You don't fancy giving us a little tune, then?

0:31:28 > 0:31:32- I don't think you'd like my singing. - We'd all love to hear you!

0:31:32 > 0:31:37- No, no.- You Welsh and music are something else.

0:31:37 > 0:31:40Now, Alaw, your name has a musical connection.

0:31:40 > 0:31:45It does. It means Melody in Welsh. It's appropriate we're in Anglesey.

0:31:45 > 0:31:50There's a lake and a river Alaw just up the road over there.

0:31:50 > 0:31:54- My dad grew up in Anglesey. That's how I got the name.- Lovely.

0:31:54 > 0:32:00- And are you a student? - Yes, at Cardiff University. I'm in my second year.

0:32:00 > 0:32:07- I'm doing a joint honours degree in French and Spanish.- A linguist! - Well, trying to be.

0:32:07 > 0:32:12You'll do very well today, I fancy. So, boys, are you quaking in your boots?

0:32:12 > 0:32:15BOTH: No!

0:32:15 > 0:32:20- Danny, how did you two meet? - First day at university, unfortunately, my grandad died.

0:32:20 > 0:32:23And Richard was on his phone getting an email saying

0:32:23 > 0:32:26some lad's grandad's just died. I have to do the work for him.

0:32:26 > 0:32:30I was standing behind him and from there we became friends.

0:32:30 > 0:32:35- What course are you doing?- Law. It runs in the family, so...

0:32:35 > 0:32:40- Could you not break the mould? - No, it was easier just to do law.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44Just to follow the groove that's been planned in front of you.

0:32:44 > 0:32:51- Richard, what do you get up to? - I've just completed a beginner's course in fencing with Danny.

0:32:51 > 0:32:58I'm also a member of the rowing club and I'm a big fan of the arts - opera and theatre -

0:32:58 > 0:33:02- and we also regularly attend art galleries.- Do you?

0:33:02 > 0:33:08- And you're also doing law.- Yeah. - Well, there we go. You've got it all sewn up.

0:33:08 > 0:33:12What are your tactics today to lash the girls into a frenzy?

0:33:12 > 0:33:17Well, we both have outstanding negotiation skills.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20So we're going to see you do some extraordinary deals?

0:33:20 > 0:33:25- Definitely.- Famous last words. - Young lawyers, going forward. Good.

0:33:25 > 0:33:31- But, principally, we'll have fun? - Definitely.- And that leads us to the money moment. Here we go.

0:33:31 > 0:33:36- £300 apiece.- Thank you. - Your experts await. Off you go!

0:33:36 > 0:33:38And very, very, very good luck!

0:33:45 > 0:33:49- Right. Here we are up in Anglesey.- Yep.

0:33:49 > 0:33:53- What are you looking for today? - Go big or go home.

0:33:53 > 0:33:57- He who dares wins. - That's what we say.

0:33:57 > 0:34:03I've never been to this fair before and it looks absolutely fabulous.

0:34:03 > 0:34:07- We want a bonzo. - You want a bonzo? Right.

0:34:07 > 0:34:10I can't promise anything.

0:34:10 > 0:34:16- Bonzo?- I love the white linen. - Yes, uh-huh.

0:34:16 > 0:34:20Like tray covers or doilies. Or nice tablecloths.

0:34:20 > 0:34:26- Oh, how refined!- I'd love a vintage fishing reel. I like my fishing, so if we see anything like that,

0:34:26 > 0:34:29I'll definitely go for it.

0:34:31 > 0:34:33Excalibur!

0:34:33 > 0:34:35Here we are!

0:34:38 > 0:34:39Oh!

0:34:42 > 0:34:45I'll find something to buy, I think.

0:34:45 > 0:34:51- As a previous midwife, I'm used to getting things out awkwardly! - That's a great line!

0:34:52 > 0:34:56So many items, so little time.

0:34:56 > 0:35:01- Is this for deep sea fishing? - It's a short one, isn't it?

0:35:03 > 0:35:09- It's old, because it's made of wood, but I don't think it's ever been used.- Never?- I don't think so.

0:35:09 > 0:35:14- Is that good?- Yeah, well, it's in better condition, obviously.

0:35:14 > 0:35:19Hello. Tell me about this. Do you know anything about this?

0:35:19 > 0:35:24I'm not a fisherman myself. I can tell you it's made in the '60s.

0:35:24 > 0:35:28- It's what you call a pier rod. - A pier rod.

0:35:28 > 0:35:34Yeah, and it's made by Hardy, who is the best maker.

0:35:34 > 0:35:39- What sort of price is on that? - I'm looking for 80.- 80. - I won't go any lower than 80.

0:35:39 > 0:35:46People who are into fishing tend to get obsessive. I think it would go well if it was cheaper.

0:35:46 > 0:35:48Nice try, Alaw.

0:35:48 > 0:35:54You've seen the case with it? That has all the details on it. The original case.

0:35:54 > 0:35:59- All right.- There you are. It's got all the detail about the last owner.

0:35:59 > 0:36:04- There's a Hardy label on there. - It's an unusual item.- It is.

0:36:04 > 0:36:11- I think you're quite passionate about it.- I am.- You can see by the way she's holding it!- It's nice.

0:36:11 > 0:36:15Is there a big pond out there we can give a demonstration?

0:36:15 > 0:36:21- She'll be wanting to take it home. That's the trouble. - I think we should go for it.

0:36:21 > 0:36:26- The dealer won't take any less so just go for it.- Thank you.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29An 80-pounder, eh? What a catch!

0:36:29 > 0:36:33- A little Tunbridge ware box? - The man knows his Tunbridge ware.

0:36:33 > 0:36:37- You've been studying. Not just lawyers.- No.

0:36:37 > 0:36:42- That's on our list. Bonzo. - Oh, really?- Yeah.

0:36:42 > 0:36:46What is this mysterious bonzo, I wonder?

0:36:46 > 0:36:53- What about like... dressing room table sets? - Uh huh. These are nice items.

0:36:53 > 0:36:59Tuscan ware. Nice, 1930s, Art Deco. I think that if we're looking at porcelain,

0:36:59 > 0:37:03try to get something a wee bit unusual.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06- Let's go and have a look. - Onwards and upwards!

0:37:06 > 0:37:11Have the legal eagles bitten off more than they can chew?

0:37:11 > 0:37:19- More difficult than I thought. I thought it was going to be easy, but it's really not.- It's all right.

0:37:19 > 0:37:25It's like having two of my children just follow me around. They wander around. "Isn't that nice?"

0:37:25 > 0:37:30I think we'll struggle a little bit to get three objects in an hour.

0:37:30 > 0:37:36- Jonathan disappears all the time. He wanders off. - He's going to get served!

0:37:36 > 0:37:39- If we lose, it's his fault. - He needs to buck his ideas up.

0:37:39 > 0:37:45Jonathan, they need active parenting.

0:37:45 > 0:37:46OK.

0:37:46 > 0:37:51I mean, it caught my eye in there, this little chap.

0:37:51 > 0:37:55It's an oval tea caddy. It's silver,

0:37:55 > 0:38:01mark on the lid and the lip. That is a Birmingham anchor and it's the letter D in lower case,

0:38:01 > 0:38:06- which is about 1903, 1904.- It's got some age.- Yes, it's 100 years old.

0:38:06 > 0:38:12It's not a particularly heavy gauge, it's had one or two little knocks, but it's not that bad.

0:38:12 > 0:38:17- It's rather clean.- Can I hold it? - Yeah. Doesn't have a price on it.

0:38:17 > 0:38:25- It's 48.- Open to offers? - The best I can do is 35. - The best you can do is 35?

0:38:25 > 0:38:26The very, very best.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29Is it worth 35?

0:38:29 > 0:38:35It is worth 35, but it might only be worth 35 in the auction. That's the thing.

0:38:35 > 0:38:38You wouldn't take £28?

0:38:38 > 0:38:40- 30? At a push?- 32.

0:38:40 > 0:38:4532. So 30's getting closer now. We're getting closer to 30.

0:38:45 > 0:38:49He's sitting down. I'm going to set my lawyers on you now!

0:38:51 > 0:38:54- Legal team, do your magic. - Yeah, boys.

0:38:54 > 0:38:59- Show us what you're made of. - 31, then. Meet you halfway. Come on.

0:38:59 > 0:39:04- It's got to be 31. - To go away. Come on.

0:39:04 > 0:39:08Poor chap. He just felt the full force of the law.

0:39:08 > 0:39:14- One under the belt. Little profit. - Now run!- Let's just buy one object and bank the rest!

0:39:16 > 0:39:19Perhaps that's Bonzo.

0:39:19 > 0:39:24- Or that? - Not very practical.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26Let's have a look on the left.

0:39:26 > 0:39:30- What about a wee bit of silver? Do you like silver?- Oh, yes.

0:39:30 > 0:39:36Look in here and see if there's anything that you like.

0:39:36 > 0:39:41- We've got some napkin rings here. - What would this be?

0:39:41 > 0:39:46That's a little money clip. That's quite a nice wee item.

0:39:46 > 0:39:48- Do you like it?- I do.

0:39:48 > 0:39:53I like the price. I was expecting a bit of a shocker, but that's fine.

0:39:53 > 0:39:57What we have is this lovely engine-turned pattern.

0:39:57 > 0:40:01The other thing is this is called a cartouche.

0:40:01 > 0:40:04This would have been used to put the initial.

0:40:04 > 0:40:09If you were buying it for your beloved, you'd get it engraved.

0:40:09 > 0:40:14Now it is silver, it is hallmarked, so it's a nice wee piece.

0:40:14 > 0:40:21If you're looking for something as a gift for the males in the family, that's quite attractive.

0:40:21 > 0:40:24If they've got a couple of bob.

0:40:24 > 0:40:28- I think that's...- What do you think it would do in auction?

0:40:28 > 0:40:32It's got 35 on it. Silver is doing well at the moment.

0:40:32 > 0:40:39You can go and ask to get a bit off of that. You really like it, but it's not all that old.

0:40:39 > 0:40:44- See if you can get it that way. - And I think she speaks Welsh.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46Speak Welsh to her!

0:40:46 > 0:40:50- There you are.- Anita's tactics delivered in Welsh? It must work.

0:40:50 > 0:40:56- How long have we got left now? - Do you want to know? Really?- No!

0:40:56 > 0:41:00- OK, we've had 20 minutes. - Time to panic!- Don't panic!

0:41:00 > 0:41:02Not yet, anyway.

0:41:02 > 0:41:07- Has Delia done the deal? - Didn't quite manage the 25,

0:41:07 > 0:41:12- but we did come to an agreement on 28.- I think we should go for it.

0:41:12 > 0:41:15Were you two speaking in Welsh?

0:41:15 > 0:41:19- Yes!- I'm sure that helped. - I hope it helped.- I'm sure it did.

0:41:19 > 0:41:24- That's great.- Actually, it's nice. - You like it? Yeah.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27- A nice wee thing for £28.- Lovely.

0:41:27 > 0:41:31Her Welsh charm offensive clearly did the trick.

0:41:31 > 0:41:34Two items in the bag for the Reds.

0:41:36 > 0:41:40But the Blues still have two to find.

0:41:40 > 0:41:44- We really have to...- Run? - Yeah, move, move, move.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47You heard the man! Teams - chop chop!

0:41:48 > 0:41:53JONATHAN WOLF WHISTLES This is a family show!

0:41:56 > 0:41:58That's quite quirky.

0:42:02 > 0:42:06- Don't look. Do you know what I've just seen?- I don't.

0:42:06 > 0:42:12On the table here, find something that you've been talking about. If that's not fate, what is?

0:42:12 > 0:42:17- Is it Bonzo? - Oh, do I have to do it for you?

0:42:17 > 0:42:19- What does that say?- Oh, my word!

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Bonzo.

0:42:21 > 0:42:24It's Bonzo!

0:42:24 > 0:42:30- It's fate.- OK, I don't think it's necessarily the Bonzo you imagined.- But it IS Bonzo.

0:42:30 > 0:42:37- It's a dog called Bonzo. - We never made any clarification. - We were just after a Bonzo dog.

0:42:37 > 0:42:42- It's like a Cairn terrier or something. I don't know my breeds. - And it's Bonzo.

0:42:42 > 0:42:49There are people who collect certain breeds. You get great interest in Dandie Dinmonts and pugs.

0:42:49 > 0:42:54Those little breeds. Have a chat and see what you can get it for.

0:42:54 > 0:43:00- I don't want to be part of it. I don't profess it's a master work of art.- But it's Bonzo.

0:43:00 > 0:43:04- So you see what you can do. - We will negotiate.

0:43:04 > 0:43:09We have spotted this dog called Bonzo that we are interested in.

0:43:09 > 0:43:15- It says £10. We really like the picture, but we really don't like the price.- OK.

0:43:15 > 0:43:20- What's the best you could possibly do?- Let's have a look at him.

0:43:20 > 0:43:24Em...what about six? How does six grab you?

0:43:24 > 0:43:29- We're struggling students. - Struggling students? - £4?

0:43:29 > 0:43:35- Students soon to be millionaire lawyers.- Well, since you've asked so nicely, we'll settle at 4, then.

0:43:35 > 0:43:40- Excellent. You're a star. - Thank you.

0:43:40 > 0:43:46- If you don't make £1 out of that, I'm a monkey's uncle. Well done. - The golden gavel! Nailed it!

0:43:46 > 0:43:51Look at that teamwork, eh? Come on, guys! Yeah! We've spent £35!

0:43:51 > 0:43:53Brilliant!

0:43:53 > 0:43:58£35 is nothing to celebrate, chaps. And you haven't got much time.

0:43:58 > 0:44:02Now what have those Reds taken a shine to?

0:44:02 > 0:44:09We've got two miner's lamps here. One at £30 and one at £45.

0:44:09 > 0:44:15Tell me which one you like. It would be a good idea to buy a miner's lamp in Wales.

0:44:15 > 0:44:20I like... This looks as if it's been used and has a bit of history.

0:44:20 > 0:44:24It stimulates you to imagine what it was like for the chap carrying this.

0:44:24 > 0:44:29- But we're not buying for ourselves. - We want to get a broader audience.

0:44:29 > 0:44:34- I think that's a safer bet. - I think so.- But I prefer that.

0:44:34 > 0:44:38- And it's cheaper! - It's cheaper. There we go.

0:44:38 > 0:44:41We stand more chance of a profit.

0:44:41 > 0:44:43- So shall we...- They're both nice.

0:44:43 > 0:44:48Shall we ask the dealer if he can come down a wee bit?

0:44:48 > 0:44:52- Hello.- Hiya. - We wanted to buy a miner's lamp.

0:44:52 > 0:44:59We are in Wales and thought it would be a smashing thing to buy. Is there a bit of movement on that?

0:44:59 > 0:45:02Em...I can do that for 20.

0:45:02 > 0:45:06- 20, girls. How do you feel about that?- That's very attractive.

0:45:06 > 0:45:10OK, that's lovely. Thank you very much.

0:45:10 > 0:45:14Girls, that's £20. That's our third item.

0:45:14 > 0:45:19Well done. We kind of struggled a wee bit in the middle. Then we went for it.

0:45:19 > 0:45:24We've still got five minutes left. Maybe time for a cup of tea.

0:45:26 > 0:45:29- Let's go. - Well done, Reds. Case closed.

0:45:29 > 0:45:33The jury, though, is still out on the Blues.

0:45:33 > 0:45:37I'd forgotten how hard this game really is.

0:45:39 > 0:45:45- A nice bit of Tunbridge ware. Presumably 100 years old from the looks of it.- Yeah.

0:45:45 > 0:45:49- What's the best price?- Double the ticket price is great for me.

0:45:49 > 0:45:55- It's a straightforward one. You'd do that for 40. - £75 coming down to 40?!

0:45:55 > 0:45:59- We're struggling students! - There's that student card again.

0:45:59 > 0:46:04- £50. I'll knock 25 quid off it. - 40 sounds a lot better.

0:46:04 > 0:46:09- You'd make our day for us. - Make it 55 and make MY day.

0:46:09 > 0:46:14- Look, it's perfect. - We've probably got two minutes left.

0:46:14 > 0:46:18- We want 40, you want 50. Please, 45.- 45.

0:46:18 > 0:46:22- It's a deal. Thank you very much. - Thank you, boys.

0:46:22 > 0:46:28Three objects. We're done with 1½ minutes left over. I can now relax a little bit.

0:46:28 > 0:46:31That's it. Time's up. Stop the clock.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35The shopping's all done, and it's time to go back to

0:46:35 > 0:46:37Frank Marshall's auction house in Cheshire,

0:46:37 > 0:46:39but first let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought.

0:46:39 > 0:46:43Keen angler Alaw was hooked by the Hardy vintage fishing rod,

0:46:43 > 0:46:47landing it for £80.

0:46:47 > 0:46:51Delia done good with the money clip at £28.

0:46:51 > 0:46:55And they dug deep to find the miner's lamp

0:46:55 > 0:46:57for an illuminating £20.

0:46:57 > 0:46:58Girls, you spent £128.

0:46:58 > 0:47:03And you gave Anita Manning £172. Anita, what did you spend it on?

0:47:03 > 0:47:06I'll help you here... Whoops!

0:47:06 > 0:47:08- There we go. Look at that!- Wow.

0:47:08 > 0:47:16I bought a pair of exotic figures. Now these come from the wonderful island of Bali.

0:47:16 > 0:47:20They're probably the early part of the 20th century.

0:47:20 > 0:47:25But I found them rather exciting and beautiful.

0:47:25 > 0:47:30They're made from an exotic wood and I think what I love most

0:47:30 > 0:47:36was the wonderful head dresses that they're wearing. I think that these are of nice quality.

0:47:36 > 0:47:41- And I just love them. - Yeah, I like them.

0:47:41 > 0:47:48- I could see them in our house.- Yes. - Do you want to take one, Delia, to see how heavy they are?

0:47:48 > 0:47:54I love hats, so when you mentioned the headgear, that really appeals to me.

0:47:54 > 0:48:00- I could certainly find a place for these in my house.- The important question is how much you paid

0:48:00 > 0:48:06- and how much you'd expect? - I paid £50 for them, which is neither cheap nor expensive.

0:48:06 > 0:48:11I think that they should go at least 60. At least 60.

0:48:11 > 0:48:16- I could see them doing that much. - You both like them?

0:48:16 > 0:48:18- We both love them. - This is not the moment to choose.

0:48:18 > 0:48:22That comes later, if you need to.

0:48:22 > 0:48:23While the Reds have a think,

0:48:23 > 0:48:27let's have a quick peek again at the Blue team's three items.

0:48:28 > 0:48:31They haggled hard for the Edwardian silver tea caddy,

0:48:31 > 0:48:34getting it in the bag for £31.

0:48:34 > 0:48:38- To go away. Come on. - Thank you very much.

0:48:38 > 0:48:42Thank you. All became clear about the mysterious Bonzo

0:48:42 > 0:48:45when they spotted a 20th-century watercolour

0:48:45 > 0:48:47of him, in a gilt mount, bought for £4.

0:48:47 > 0:48:52In the dying moments, they picked up the Tunbridge ware box for £45.

0:48:53 > 0:48:59R&D, Richard and Danny, you gave the boy £220 to trot off with.

0:48:59 > 0:49:03- What did you buy for £220, then, Jonathan?- Did I really get £220?

0:49:03 > 0:49:06Well, I was rather mean.

0:49:06 > 0:49:12There we go. I bought this little copper alms-type dish.

0:49:12 > 0:49:16This copper is very popular with collectors.

0:49:16 > 0:49:22Made at the end of the 19th century, early 20th century, fuelled by the Arts and Crafts.

0:49:22 > 0:49:26People had no TV and radio, so they sewed, painted, worked in metal.

0:49:26 > 0:49:30This is sort of reminiscent of the Newlyn School.

0:49:30 > 0:49:38- They often did sea-type subjects in a little border with fish. - This has definitely got a ship.

0:49:38 > 0:49:44- That is a ship.- Yeah. I had to look to be sure myself! - We have a lot of trust in you(!)

0:49:44 > 0:49:50And this is all hammered, just like Arts and Crafts traditional materials would be.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53- How much did you pay?- I paid £30.

0:49:53 > 0:49:56- How much do you think it would make? - Em, £40-£60.

0:49:56 > 0:49:59- Can we have that in writing?- No.

0:49:59 > 0:50:02There are no guarantees. Sorry, boys!

0:50:02 > 0:50:06Right then. The auctioneer Nick Hall and his gavel are raring to go,

0:50:06 > 0:50:08so let's sell.

0:50:09 > 0:50:12With you, sir. Sold. £45.

0:50:12 > 0:50:18I think you could easily be making a small profit on each of your three items today.

0:50:18 > 0:50:23In which case, you might not need the Balinese busts.

0:50:23 > 0:50:26It's going to be boom or bust.

0:50:26 > 0:50:29First up, though, is the rod.

0:50:29 > 0:50:31First item, here it comes.

0:50:31 > 0:50:36A 1960s Hardy Brothers, two-piece, fibreglass boy's fishing rod.

0:50:36 > 0:50:39£40? 30? £20? Thank you, sir.

0:50:39 > 0:50:44Nice little fishing lot. 20 I'm bid. 5 where? Come on.

0:50:44 > 0:50:48There's 20 on the hook. Don't let it go at £20. Surely another fiver.

0:50:48 > 0:50:52I've got £20 in the room. Bidding at 20. 20 only.

0:50:52 > 0:50:57Maiden bid at £20. I'm selling. It's with you, sir, at £20.

0:50:57 > 0:51:00It's going to go. With you at £20. Last chance.

0:51:00 > 0:51:04- Oh, dear. £20. That's a disaster. - Somebody's got a bargain.

0:51:04 > 0:51:08They certainly have! Minus £60. Never mind. Here's the money clip.

0:51:08 > 0:51:14Nice bit of silverware. I can start on commission. £20. At £20. The bid's with me.

0:51:14 > 0:51:1725. I've got 25 in the room.

0:51:17 > 0:51:21Sorry to be awkward. 28. I'll take 30. Thank you.

0:51:21 > 0:51:27Back of the room, seated, at £30. For the money clip. At £30. Any advance?

0:51:27 > 0:51:31The bid's in the room at £30. All done? 30 I sell here.

0:51:31 > 0:51:35That's good. £2 profit. That's very good, Anita.

0:51:35 > 0:51:37Here comes the miner's lamp.

0:51:37 > 0:51:41Good old collector's lot. Not dear.

0:51:41 > 0:51:44- £20? £20 for the old miner's lamp. - Please...

0:51:44 > 0:51:47Come on. £15? Surely. Thank you.

0:51:47 > 0:51:5315 I am bid on the left. Any advance on £15? 20. 20 seated.

0:51:53 > 0:51:57- 5 standing. At 25. - You're in profit, girls.

0:51:57 > 0:52:00At 30. 5 I have. At 35 on my left.

0:52:00 > 0:52:04At £35. All done? All finished? You sure?

0:52:04 > 0:52:07All done at 35. With you, sir.

0:52:07 > 0:52:11Plus £15. That's very good. That means you are minus £43.

0:52:11 > 0:52:14- Oh!- Minus £43. It's not too bad.

0:52:14 > 0:52:18- What about the Balinese busts? - We'll go for it?- Boom or bust?

0:52:18 > 0:52:21- Go for it.- It'll be boom!

0:52:21 > 0:52:24Are you sure about that?

0:52:24 > 0:52:28We're going with the bonus buy. And here they come.

0:52:28 > 0:52:33Hand-carved, beautifully made. £40 only for the pair.

0:52:33 > 0:52:38- Go on.- Start me now at £20. Thank you, madam. 20. 5 anywhere?

0:52:38 > 0:52:42The bid's in the room at £20. Surely another 5. 30.

0:52:42 > 0:52:465 now. Can I have 40? And 5, yes?

0:52:46 > 0:52:51Come on. There are two in the lot. I've got £40 in the second row. Are you sure?

0:52:51 > 0:52:57- At £40. All done? At 40... - New bidder!- 45.- Yes!

0:52:57 > 0:53:02At 45. Nearly missed you. At 45 in the third row. At £45.

0:53:02 > 0:53:05- Go on! - With you, I'm selling at 45.

0:53:05 > 0:53:08- Aww.- £45. So close!

0:53:08 > 0:53:12That's minus 5. It means overall you're minus £48.

0:53:12 > 0:53:15It doesn't sound so much if you say it quickly.

0:53:15 > 0:53:18Don't talk to the Blues, OK?

0:53:22 > 0:53:26- Now, Ricardo, Danny, you've been talking to the Reds?- No.

0:53:26 > 0:53:30- You don't know how they got on? - Don't need to know.- Don't want to!

0:53:30 > 0:53:34First up is the silver tea caddy. Here it comes.

0:53:34 > 0:53:39Edwardian silver tea caddy. Smart little caddy. 22. 25.

0:53:39 > 0:53:4225. Bid's with me now. At £25.

0:53:42 > 0:53:46- That's nothing, is it? - 30. 5. 40.

0:53:46 > 0:53:52£40. 5, sir? Hallmarked silver. It's on an all-time high. 45 online. 50.

0:53:52 > 0:53:56Don't let it go. It's £50. Nice little caddy at £50.

0:53:56 > 0:53:5955. 60. 5. 70. 5.

0:53:59 > 0:54:03- Look at this, boys! - £80. 85.

0:54:03 > 0:54:05At 85 in the front.

0:54:05 > 0:54:1190 right at the back now. 90 takes it, right in the doorway.

0:54:11 > 0:54:15Back of the room at £90. All done. Selling at £90.

0:54:15 > 0:54:19£90 is plus 60, nearly. In fact, it's plus £59.

0:54:19 > 0:54:23That is a whopper of a profit. Now Bonzo.

0:54:23 > 0:54:27Lot 114 is the little watercolour. The black-haired terrier

0:54:27 > 0:54:33called Bonzo. I think that's the dog and not the artist. It's signed WC.

0:54:33 > 0:54:37Where's £20? It's fully house-trained.

0:54:37 > 0:54:41At 20. £20? It's been out for a walk and fed.

0:54:41 > 0:54:46- Nice little watercolour. Thank you. 20 I'm bid.- Look at that.

0:54:46 > 0:54:4830. 5. 40.

0:54:48 > 0:54:52£40 standing. At 40 bid. Nobody else?

0:54:52 > 0:54:55All sure? With you, madam, at £40.

0:54:55 > 0:54:58Which is plus £36.

0:54:58 > 0:55:02You could pay for your next year's education on this!

0:55:02 > 0:55:06Now it's the Tunbridge box. Attention!

0:55:06 > 0:55:10Pretty little inlaid storage box. It's on a rosewood carcass as well.

0:55:10 > 0:55:15Even better still. Commission interest, starting at 30. 5. 40.

0:55:15 > 0:55:21At £40. The bid's with me at £40. 5 anywhere? 5 I'll take.

0:55:21 > 0:55:26- Yes!- Back to me at £50. One more? At £50, the bid's with me.

0:55:26 > 0:55:33At 50, the room's out. Nothing online? I've got £50 on commission. All done, selling.

0:55:33 > 0:55:37I told you you'd be all right. You made a profit on all three

0:55:37 > 0:55:40and you are plus £100.

0:55:40 > 0:55:44- No, don't celebrate too soon. - Well, no.

0:55:44 > 0:55:49- What are you going to do about...? - I don't think we should go for it.

0:55:49 > 0:55:55- I think we should.- No, stick. - It's got a good estimate.- Stick. - What are we going to do?

0:55:55 > 0:56:00- He rated it.- We'll go for it. - You're going to risk it?

0:56:00 > 0:56:05- It's on your back.- On Jonathan's. - I love it. Two speculating lawyers.

0:56:05 > 0:56:10Now I can tell you that the estimate is £40-£70, so he rates it.

0:56:10 > 0:56:13You're going with the bonus buy.

0:56:13 > 0:56:19Nice treat for you now. A bit of Arts and Crafts metalware in the manner of Newlyn.

0:56:19 > 0:56:25Start me now at £30. 25? We'll be here all day. Where's 25?

0:56:25 > 0:56:30- Thank you, sir. 25 I'm offered. - Keep going.- 25 I'm bid.

0:56:30 > 0:56:34Any further bid? On 25 only. 25 is the bid. It's going to take it.

0:56:34 > 0:56:37At 25 only.

0:56:37 > 0:56:41- Oh! Sorry, guys. - £25.- That's all your fault.

0:56:41 > 0:56:45- You are still plus £95. - That's a whole pint!

0:56:45 > 0:56:49- Listen, £95, yes?- Yes. - Don't tell the Reds a thing.

0:56:49 > 0:56:51All will be revealed in a moment.

0:56:55 > 0:56:59Well, well, that was fun. Been chatting about the results?

0:56:59 > 0:57:01No? Not at all.

0:57:01 > 0:57:06So you have no idea of the scale of winnings and losses in this show.

0:57:06 > 0:57:11Because we have got the opposite poles.

0:57:11 > 0:57:15The South Pole, I'm afraid, are the Reds.

0:57:15 > 0:57:22- Aww.- Not surprisingly. Poor runners up. You made a nice profit on your Eccles lamp.

0:57:22 > 0:57:27- Surprising.- It was a surprise. Everything else was not so hot.

0:57:27 > 0:57:35- All round it wasn't so hot, so we won't dwell on that! Did you have a nice time?- Great.- Fantastic.

0:57:35 > 0:57:38We've loved having you. But the victors today

0:57:38 > 0:57:43are going home with serious money - £95. How lovely is that?

0:57:43 > 0:57:48There's your £95. And by making a profit on all three of your items

0:57:48 > 0:57:54you get a Golden Gavel, the ancient award that we've now run out of,

0:57:54 > 0:57:59- so you get pins instead. These are rare things.- Thanks, Tim.

0:57:59 > 0:58:04They should be worn with pride. One for your collection, Jonathan.

0:58:04 > 0:58:08- It's been a remarkable day.- It has. - We've loved having you on the show.

0:58:08 > 0:58:11Congratulations all round.

0:58:11 > 0:58:14Join us soon for some more bargain hunting! Yes?

0:58:14 > 0:58:16ALL: Yes!
