Today we're coming to you | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
from one of the most picturesque parts of Devon. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:11 | |
We're on the Exe estuary at Topsham | 0:00:11 | 0:00:15 | |
and I feel bit of divine Devonian inspiration coming on. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
Let's go Bargain Hunting! | 0:00:19 | 0:00:23 | |
The news is that our teams have £300 to scour the Topsham Antique Centre | 0:00:48 | 0:00:54 | |
to try and find three items to sell on later at auction | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
and hopefully make a profit. | 0:00:58 | 0:00:59 | |
And here's a quick peek at what's coming up. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:03 | |
Today we're in a warren of wonders. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
-The Reds dither. -Can we think about those? -Let's have a think. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
-So we've got one on the back burner. -Come back to it. -Off we go, then. -OK. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
Whilst the Blues know what they like. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
-I like it a lot. -It's quite nice. -It's decorative. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
So now let's meet the teams. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
Today we have the best of friends versus father and son. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:24 | |
For the Reds we've got Jackie and Jane | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
and for the Blues we've got John and Philip. Welcome. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
-Lovely to see you. -Hello. -Hello. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
So how did you two girls meet, then? | 0:01:32 | 0:01:33 | |
Jackie moved in opposite me when she nothing and I was two. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
-Really? A seriously long, long time ago. -A seriously long time. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
So what do you do for a living now, Jacks? | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
I'm a staff nurse and I work at Rowcroft Hospice in Torquay, | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
which is a great place to work, yes. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
I work with a very good team of people | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
and, yeah, thoroughly enjoy it. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
It must have its stressful moments, though. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:54 | |
It does but it's a worthwhile job and I enjoy it. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
Jane, you're the person I need to ring if I have an emergency, right? | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
-That's absolutely right. -Tell us about it. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
I'm a call-taker for the Ambulance Service. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
-And do you get asked for advice in the emergency, then? -Yeah, we do. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
We, obviously, give advice on CPR | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
but also, the best thing for me is when you give advice on how to give birth. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
-Has that ever happened to you? -Yeah. It's happened three times now. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
The best one was a lady on her way to hospital stopped at a pub car park | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
because she couldn't go any further. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
She needed a drink? | 0:02:26 | 0:02:27 | |
She certainly did afterwards. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
-It says here that you're a bit of a collector, too. -I am. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
I collect old Torquay pottery, mainly because I come from Torquay. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
-You might find a piece or two here in Topsham. -I might. -Yeah. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
Well, very good luck. I should think this has got the Blues quaking in their boots. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
-Absolutely. -John, you're looking scared. -Absolutely. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
-Philip, you run the family business. -That's right. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
Along with my step-mother - the two of us run the business. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
-What is the business? -We're publishers. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
We publish magazines and books on coins, medals and military history. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:59 | |
-Do you? -That's our area. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
Dad was involved but he semi-retired a couple of years ago | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
and now Carol and myself run it. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
-You inherited your hobby from your father. -I did, yes. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
I collect military medals | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
and it's one of Dad's passions for years. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
Have you got any particular favourites in your collection? | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
I actually collect medals to chaplains - men of the cloth, vicars, that sort of thing. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
It fascinates me that these guys can go onto the battlefield | 0:03:20 | 0:03:22 | |
-without any weaponry to defend themselves. -Yes. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
And I do have one particular medal, a Zulu war medal, 1879, to a chaplain | 0:03:25 | 0:03:30 | |
who actually gave the last rites to the Prince Imperial on the battlefield. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:35 | |
But Dad's a Zulu war medal collector as well, | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
so he's a little bit jealous, I think. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
Now, John, you're no stranger to antique fairs, are you? | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
Oh, no. That's one of my pastimes. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
So, what sort of things between you will you be looking out for today? | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
Well, probably medals, militaria, that sort of thing. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
Something local, maybe. Good quality items. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
-We won't be spending £3 or £4. -Oh, good. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
You'll be spending proper money. Folding money. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
If you can find the right things. It's jolly difficult. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
Talking of money, this it the money moment. Here's your £300, girls. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:04 | |
-There's your £300 apiece. -Ooh. -Thank you. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
You know the rules. Your experts await and off you go | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
and very, very, very, very good luck. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:12 | |
Do I feel an emergency coming on? | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
Our experts today will be guiding two teams. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
For the Reds, we have a man who can spot a bargain a mile off. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
It's Philip Serrell. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
And the Blues will be guided by a man whose glass is always half full. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
It's Charles Hanson. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
-So you two are the best of mates? -Yeah, we are. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
-You're not going to gang up on me, are you? -Never. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
-Is there a plan? What are we going to buy? -Anything fluffy. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
-What? -She's into rabbits. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
-Coins and medals is our speciality. -Much else? | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
-Not personally, no. -No? -No. Anything old and cheap. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:49 | |
Sounds good to me. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
He's seen this show before. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
-You're into knitting, are you? -I do knit. -Do you? -Yes. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
-What do knit? -Well, I make half things, really, | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
because I tend to get halfway through them and give up. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
Well, if you've only got one leg you know where to go for your socks. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:08 | |
-But it's not necessarily practical for everybody. -No. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
In today's living, there's no way you're going to want something of this size, this age. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
-Correct. -So we need something that's small, something people can use. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
-I like the bears. -I think we should look at those. -I do like them. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
-I like the one with the reel. -The cotton reel, yeah. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
I was thinking perhaps we could buy a family of bears. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
Is that supposed to be with that or have they added that? | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
-He's a cotton reel holder, isn't he? Do you like them? -I do. -Yeah. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
-That's half the battle, isn't it? -Yeah. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
-I just wonder how much age that's got, at the bottom. -Mm. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:40 | |
-Do you reckon? -It doesn't look as good as the others. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
Or is he...? He looks a bit older. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
-And he's quite fun. -I like him with the reel on. -That's my favourite. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
I like that. It's fun. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
-That's £45. -Yeah. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
-Get it for about 30? -If we could get it for 30, that would be fantastic. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
-OK, let's have a word and see if we can do that. -Lovely. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
-Purchase number one. -Well, we hope. -Hopefully. -That might be wishful thinking. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:04 | |
Go on, then, Goldilocks. Get haggling. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
-What's the best on these, then, Albert? -£38. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
38? That's a good discount, isn't it? | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
-Would 35 buy them, do you think? -I don't think so. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
-Shall we take them out...? -Yeah. -Because otherwise we'll be locking cabinets. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:19 | |
-I'll ask Albert to put them behind the counter for us. -Lovely. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
So we'll have a look round. That's almost... How long have we had? | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
-About 15 minutes? -Yeah. -And we've almost got one already. -Our first thing. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
Albert, you're a gentleman and a scholar. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
Well, almost buying isn't actually buying. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
-Thank you. -Thanks, Albert. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:35 | |
-Are you happy with that? -I think that's a great idea. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
-So we've got one on the back burner. -We can come back to it. -Off we go, then. -OK. -OK. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:42 | |
Will the Blues be more decisive? They've found something "tray" bon! | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
-Is that a tray? -What do you think? John, what do you think? | 0:06:48 | 0:06:52 | |
-It doesn't do it for me. -John, just look at the size. -What price is it? | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
Hide that price and you give me your all-encompassing opinion on that. | 0:06:55 | 0:07:01 | |
-What's it made of? -Mache. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
-Yes, paper mache. -Paper mache. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:04 | |
-Probably mid-Victorian. -Mid-Victorian, yes. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
1860. I quite like it because if you look at the condition, it's in quite nice order. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:11 | |
The gilding is pretty strong. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
What would it cost in an antiques centre? | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
-£35. -No, no, more than that. -More than that? -Yeah. -OK. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:19 | |
-I know nothing about this. -John, how much? -£125. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
-How much? -35 was my... | 0:07:22 | 0:07:23 | |
Well, I think it's quite nice because we've met halfway - it's £65. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
-65. -65. -I think that's not a bad object. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
If it was smaller and therefore practical, I would say yes, | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
but I can't see that fitting in anyone's kitchen or dining room - it's just too big. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
Come on, Philip. Sometimes big is beautiful. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
-Mid-Victorian. £65. -I don't mind it. Maybe it's one we can come back to. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:44 | |
-Not a lot, is it? -We might get it for 50. -Exactly. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
Food for thought, John. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:48 | |
-There are some coins over here, gents. -Ah! | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
-There's tools. Are they any good? Old tools? -Yes. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
There's no tool like an old tool. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
Do you like these or are you just grasping at any straw? | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
-Any tool. -I do like old tools, I have to say. I really do. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
There's something aesthetically pleasing about them. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
-You know that they've been used, don't you? -Some skilled... | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
What about those? Shall we ask Albert to find out...? | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
You've got 25 quid, there, look. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:16 | |
-What are these? -Those are a pair of dividers. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:18 | |
But they're definitely 19th century. I think they're really nice. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
-Shall we find out from Albert? -Yeah. -Yeah. -Great. | 0:08:21 | 0:08:23 | |
If we can them for 15 or 20 quid, that's a bit of a shout for us. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:27 | |
-I like that. -OK. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
-What do you think? -No. -But I thought you loved coins? | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
-Yeah, but not those prices. -No, they're all too expensive. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
-John, when you purvey a good coin, what do you look for? -Oh, condition. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
Condition is all important, particularly with milled coins, | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
which are the later ones. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
There's a very nice sixpence there. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
It's still got the original patina on it, which is nice. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
-And which one is that? -The 1787 sixpence. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
-But that is really top end. I wouldn't want to pay that much. -No. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
The prices there are probably about right | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
but we need to try and make a profit. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
And how has the coin market performed in the last 20 years? | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
-Very good. -Has it? -I wish I'd bought these coins 20 years ago. -Really? | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
Oh, it's phenomenal. Coins now are going through the roof. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
And you can make a mint. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
Albert's come back. Let's see what he's got to say. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
-£22 the pair. -£22 for the pair. Right. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
Don't tell me you're almost buying these, too. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
-What I suggest that we do, let's ask Albert to put those with our... -Bears. -With our bears. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:29 | |
-Is that all right? -Quite all right. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:30 | |
You're a gentleman and a scholar. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
Come on, teams! Buy something, one of you! | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
-I like this. -I like the timber, actually. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:37 | |
-I like it a lot. -It's quite nice. -It's decorative. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
It's practical, as well. It's the sort of thing you can use as a... | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
-I don't know. -I know what you're thinking of. It's like a coin collector's chest. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
-But it's the sort of thing that you can actually... It's decorative. -Yes. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
It's pretty. It's something that you can actually use and it's 135. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:55 | |
-Mm. -I like that. What do you think? | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
Of course you've got the mother-of-pearl, the abalone, on the lacquered, hinged doors. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:02 | |
-This top section might also hinge open, like that. -It does. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:06 | |
And you've got the drawers within. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
It's quite a nice item. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
-Shall we take it down? -Yeah. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:13 | |
-It needs slight work, I think. -There we are. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
-It's Japanese. -With the hinged handles on either side. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:21 | |
-This top section opens up to reveal divisions for maybe... -Could be anything. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:26 | |
Could it be a specimen cabinet of some sort? | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
-Well, whatever it is, it can be used for anything, can't it? -Yeah. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:33 | |
And the patination is nice, the colour. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:35 | |
-I like the colour of it. -It must be, what, 1900, 1890, in date? -Yes. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
-And how much is it? -They're saying 135 but let's see what we can get. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:42 | |
-Is it worth a question? -I think it is. -OK. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
So where's our Albert, then? | 0:10:46 | 0:10:47 | |
Hello. Who's this? | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
I've just had a word with the lady and she said £100 would be OK. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
-Great. -Sorted. Excellent. Are we happy with that? -Yeah. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
Right, brilliant. That's great. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:56 | |
Hurrah! Someone's spent some cash. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
Come on, Reds, your turn now. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
Do you know, I'm a sucker for kids' shoes and clogs. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
-Do you like those? -Oh, they're beautiful. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:09 | |
Aren't those fantastic, look? Look at those. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
-They're all leather. -Yeah. -How old would they be? | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
-1920s. But they've never been worn, have they? -Hardly. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:18 | |
Aren't they cute? I just love... | 0:11:18 | 0:11:19 | |
I bet they weren't very comfortable, really. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
That's probably why they've not been worn. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
I don't know if they're your size, Phil. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
No but I just think... | 0:11:26 | 0:11:27 | |
They're like the crossover between the working man's clogs and the child's shoes. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:32 | |
-They were probably for Sunday best, maybe. -They're fantastic. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:34 | |
-I think they're lovely. Shall we ask another question? -Yes. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:38 | |
Albert! We can ask Albert. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
Albert was only 23 when we started this programme | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
and we've had him running around... | 0:11:45 | 0:11:46 | |
Now, those are 44 quid, Albert. We'd like them for 30. How's that looking? | 0:11:46 | 0:11:50 | |
Don't worry, Albert. They've got to buy something at some point. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:53 | |
What a man, Albert. Get in there. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:55 | |
-38 would be the best? -38. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
Out of the three things that we've put by, I would buy the tools | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
because I think they're really interesting, | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
-perhaps a bit more blokey. -Possibly. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:05 | |
-And I'd buy these. -They're not fluffy, aren't they? -No, no. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
And I'd buy these. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:09 | |
Don't tell me they're actually going to buy them. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
-All right? -Can we think about those? -Let's put them in our little pile. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:16 | |
No, no, no, no. They're not going to buy those either. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
Do you know what, Charles, I think we need to be looking at the bottom of cabinets and at the top | 0:12:19 | 0:12:23 | |
because I think we're in danger of looking at what everyone else has looked at | 0:12:23 | 0:12:27 | |
-and these things have been here for a long time. -Exactly. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
-If we start looking up or down... -Exactly. -..we may make some money. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
Let's go down below, OK? | 0:12:36 | 0:12:37 | |
Hit the deck, boys. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
-John, this is quite a sweet thing. -Silver photo frame. -The photo frame. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
-Can you see? What is so nice is it's a pretty lady. -Is it silver? | 0:12:42 | 0:12:46 | |
Yeah. Well, it says silver. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
-It's got an interesting patina on it, though - a pewter colour. -It has. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |
-I might enquire. Hello, sir. -And silver has gone up. | 0:12:52 | 0:12:55 | |
You're all right, Albert. The Blues seem to be spending their cash at last. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:59 | |
It's not awful lot of silver, though, if you look. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
-It's very, very thin. Very thin. -It is. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
-It's not a solid silver frame. -But hasn't it got style? | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
It has, yes, you're absolutely right. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
Look down there. What are they? | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
-The hallmark letters. -Exactly. -What date is that, Charles? | 0:13:13 | 0:13:16 | |
It's actually not very old. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:17 | |
The hallmark is for London, | 0:13:17 | 0:13:18 | |
-date code probably no earlier than 1960 or 1970. -Yeah, '60s. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:24 | |
I think in an auction you might guide it between £40 and £60. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
Charles is sold on this. I'm not sure about Phil and John, though. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:32 | |
-I prefer it to the platter or the tray, though. -Do you? | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
I prefer it to the tray. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:36 | |
-It's priced at £45. -It's worth more. -Is it really? -Yeah. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
Well, thank you. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
-39. -39? Oh, you're teasing me now, you're teasing me. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:45 | |
38.99. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
-What do you think? -I will leave it up to you | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
-but I would say at £39... -It's a good buy. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-Yeah, it is a good buy. -All right. -What do you think? | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
-The final decision's yours. -OK. £39. We'll go for it. | 0:13:56 | 0:13:59 | |
-Are you sure, Dad? -Yeah. -Cheers, Dad. We'll take it. £39. Great. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:03 | |
-Are you happy with that? -I'm... No. -Not really. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
I think our Albert is just happy that cash is being spent by somebody. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:11 | |
This is quite nice because this is all Exeter silver. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
That's quite nice. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
That's £330. We can't afford that. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:18 | |
-But there is a premium for that, as you can see. -Yes. -Yes. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:23 | |
Walk on, I think. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:24 | |
I think the place to buy Exeter silver is probably in Sheffield. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:28 | |
Speaking of silver, how's the Blue team feeling about purchase number two? | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
I do like my silver photo frame. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
It has great style and I think for £39 it's a good buy. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:38 | |
So, so far so good. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:39 | |
We're getting on really well and there's good team spirit. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:42 | |
I'm not entirely certain about the picture frame | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
-but we'll go with Charles's... -We'll go with Charles. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
We'll go with Charles's expertise. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
Right, good to see everyone's on the same page. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:53 | |
The Reds are tearing the place apart. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
-Let's have a look, girls. -It doesn't feel very substantial. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
-Do you know why that is? -Because it's not. -You got it. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
-It looked nice from a distance. -Yeah, about three miles. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
-You need to get out more. -All right. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:07 | |
40 minutes gone, chaps. Come on! | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
-It's a really extensive tea set, isn't it? -It is. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:13 | |
-Copeland Spode and there's a lot there, isn't there? -125. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
-125? Well, we've got 161 left, I think, but it's too... -Big? | 0:15:16 | 0:15:21 | |
Again, I'm not struck. Is it complete? | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
-Well, it's got six cups. -Six cups. -Six coffee cans. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:28 | |
-John, it's a good spot. -We've got another floor, we've got 20 minutes - let's come back. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:33 | |
But you're on track. Two items with 20 minutes to go. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
The Reds, on the other hand... | 0:15:37 | 0:15:38 | |
Are you thinking that perhaps adding something to those two tools might be an idea? | 0:15:38 | 0:15:43 | |
-It might be an idea, yeah. -What about that, look? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
-Isn't that a lovely ruler? -That's nicely made, isn't it? | 0:15:46 | 0:15:48 | |
-That's eight quid. -What's so different about this one, then? | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
Erm, well, as a rule... | 0:15:51 | 0:15:52 | |
-THEY GROAN -If you didn't see that joke coming, you're probably from outer space. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:56 | |
-I think that's a good plan, do you? -Yeah. £6. | 0:15:56 | 0:16:00 | |
-Six quid. So I'd go for that. -Yeah. -I think that's... I think so. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:04 | |
Something tells me it's going to be the bears, the tools and the boots. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:09 | |
Go on - put us out of our misery. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
The Blues still need a final item. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
-Eight minutes to go. -All right, we'll split up. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
You go over there, I'll go over here. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
-I can't see anything at all. -Nothing leaping out at you? | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
Why not take a leaf out of the Reds' book and think back? | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
-It could be the paper mache tray. -I think you might be right. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:32 | |
Five minutes to go and we finally have decision in the Red camp. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:36 | |
I think you should go and buy those three bits. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
-Go and charm Albert. Go on. -See what we can do, shall we? | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
He doesn't know what he's got coming. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
Mm. And it's decision time for the Blues. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:47 | |
It's your decision. It's the tea set or the tray. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:50 | |
You make the decision. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:52 | |
-Go for the tray. -Really? -Go for the tray. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
-If it's still there. -If it's not, we go for the tea set. -It might be gone. -Right. | 0:16:56 | 0:17:00 | |
-That's the bears, the boots and the tools, please. -The tools. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
So if we do all them for £104? | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
-Excellent. -That sounds a bargain. -Yeah. -Right. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
-Excellent. -Lovely. Thank you very much. -Good luck. -Thank you. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:13 | |
-You're going to thrash the Blue team, aren't you? -We hope so. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
Well, they're confident - indecisive but confident. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:20 | |
It's got to be the tray. We made the decision upstairs, didn't we? | 0:17:20 | 0:17:23 | |
-We made the decision. We'll go for this one. -I don't think we go far wrong with this. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:28 | |
-Can we negotiate? -Hard. -Can we negotiate on what? | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
-We're real hard negotiators. -Let's have a look. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
The death on that one would be £50. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
-Is that what you call the death? -That's it. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:37 | |
We did say upstairs, didn't we? We did say upstairs. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
-That's a really good discount and I think... -For £50. -All right, we'll go for it. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:45 | |
-We'll take it. Good man. -We've got it. -Thank you very much. -Thank you, sir. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
-We're down to the wire. -Yeah, that's true. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
We're at 58 and a half minutes, OK, so well done. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
-We can now relax. OK - a cup of tea in the sunshine? -Absolutely. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:57 | |
-Come on, let's get out of here. -Thanks, Charles. -Well done. | 0:17:57 | 0:18:01 | |
That's it, time's up, the items bought. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
It's time to leave Topsham and travel east to Honiton | 0:18:03 | 0:18:07 | |
and to Bearnes, Hampton and Littlewood's saleroom. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:11 | |
But before we find out if they're going to hit some high profits, | 0:18:11 | 0:18:14 | |
let's have a little reminder for the Reds. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
A pair of Black Forest bears set them back a roaring £38. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:24 | |
After the bears came boots. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
This pair of children's hobnailed footwear cost them another £38. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:32 | |
Their third purchase ensured they'd be tooled up for the auction, | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
costing them £28 for the set. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
I've been told you're really looking forward to seeing what your bonus buy is. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
-We are. -We're looking forward to Philip revealing it. -Revealing all. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
-196 squids' worth he had to spend. -Ooh! | 0:18:47 | 0:18:52 | |
-There we are - that is a copper tray. -Ooh! | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
And I bought that because I thought, well, we're in Devon, | 0:18:54 | 0:18:58 | |
Devon's not far from Newlyn, | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |
this looks, with a bit of imagination, like Newlyn school, | 0:19:00 | 0:19:04 | |
-so there's a bit of a local theme... -That's beautiful. -..with a broad imagination. | 0:19:04 | 0:19:08 | |
-Do you like it? -I'd like that myself, actually. -Yeah. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:11 | |
-And that's cost £35. -No! -Yeah, yeah. So I like that. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
-How do you know it's Newlyn? -We don't. -Oh. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
Newlyn style. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
-You should take that as sort of auto-suggestion, really. -OK. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:23 | |
We're trying to get that thought into the minds of the buyers. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
You paid £35. How much do you think it's worth? | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
Between £30 and £45. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
-So not a lot of profit in it. -No, no, no. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:33 | |
I'm sorry. I tried hard. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
Luckily, the Reds can decide later - | 0:19:36 | 0:19:38 | |
after the sale of their first three items. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
Now for the Blues. Here's a little reminder of what they bought. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:46 | |
The Blues didn't want to buy big | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
and this Japanese chest fitted the bill perfectly. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
£100 paid. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
They weren't too sure about the silver frame | 0:19:54 | 0:19:56 | |
but Charles thought it pretty as a picture at £39. | 0:19:56 | 0:20:00 | |
Finally, after umming and ahhing, | 0:20:02 | 0:20:04 | |
they chose this papier-mache gilt tray for £50. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
Now, John and Philip, this is your moment. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
You gave Charles £111. Did you blow the lot, Charles? | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
-John and Philip are hugely into coins... -OK. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:19 | |
..so I found the case for you two. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
-Ah! -Do you like it? -Excellent. -Pretty. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:25 | |
Yeah, a leather covered, gilt brass mounted sovereign and half sovereign case. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:29 | |
-It's not my best find. -You don't look impressed, Dad. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
-What did you pay for it? -What, for £111? | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
-It's quite expensive for 111. -Let me tell you. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
If you were a late Victorian gentleman | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
with your half sovereign and sovereign, you'd want a nice case. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:43 | |
I love this leather finish. It's a bit shabby and chicy. | 0:20:43 | 0:20:46 | |
But it is all there and complete and it may have been on the end of your fob chain. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-I hope you didn't pay 111 for it. -No, well, well... | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
Yes, it does, it works, so... What do you think? | 0:20:51 | 0:20:55 | |
-I think it's probably worth... -Come on, Dad. -40? | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
I was going to say at retail I would have thought £75-80. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:01 | |
-£35. -Oh, well, there you go. -You did well. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
It might just stand a fair chance of hopefully making 45 or 50. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:09 | |
-As I say, it's not my best find. -With the wind up its tail. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:11 | |
-I like it. -Do you? -I think it's nice. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
I just wish that it had a sovereign and a half sovereign in it | 0:21:14 | 0:21:16 | |
-but I think you did well. -That's very kind. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:19 | |
-Well, that's a nice reaction. Do you agree with that, John? -Yes, I do. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
All right, super. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
Is it a closed case? They'll decide in a while. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
In the meanwhile, auctioneer Brian Goodison-Blanks is ready, | 0:21:27 | 0:21:31 | |
so let's start the selling. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
-Now, girls. Happy? -Yes. -Very happy. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:36 | |
Out of the £104 that you spent, | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
he's not predicting much of a profit, frankly. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:41 | |
-Neither were we. -On any of it. | 0:21:41 | 0:21:42 | |
But on the other hand, you didn't spend that much. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:45 | |
It's not big profits you're after. Your strategy is just to make a little and often, | 0:21:45 | 0:21:49 | |
which is fair enough. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
The first lot up are your two bears and here they come. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:55 | |
Two Black Forest carved wooden bears. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
And what am I to say for those? £15? | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
£10? £10 here I have. At 10. And 12 now for the bears. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
-At £10, maiden bid only. -No! -12 at all? | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
-£10. 12 on the internet, I'll take. 15. -It's on the internet. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:10 | |
18, internet? I've got 15 in the room, I want 18 online. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:14 | |
18, fresh place. 20? | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
22, 25. At least he's here. £22. In the second room, then. At £22. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:21 | |
-£22 is minus 16 but let's not fret. -Is it? Oh, that's a shame. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
Because here come the old boots. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
Early 20th century child's hobnail boots, size 12. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
-Rather interesting, these ones, and I'll start these here at £20. -Ooh. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
Commission bid with me. 22, now? | 0:22:36 | 0:22:38 | |
22, 25, 28, 30, 2. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
-35, 38. Are you sure? -Oh, come on. -We want more. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:46 | |
Commission with me at 35. 8 now elsewhere? | 0:22:46 | 0:22:48 | |
Are you quite sure, then? For the pair of shoes at £35... | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
-No money. Bad luck. -THEY GROAN | 0:22:51 | 0:22:53 | |
That is just minus £3. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
35 is minus £3, totalling minus 19 so far. | 0:22:56 | 0:23:01 | |
-OK, here comes the tools. -The set square, the dividers and the rule. | 0:23:01 | 0:23:05 | |
What am I to say for those? | 0:23:05 | 0:23:06 | |
£5? 5 I have, thank you. Eight? | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
10. 12? | 0:23:09 | 0:23:12 | |
12 online? At £10 in the room, then. At 10. And 12 online? No. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
-Oh, lord. -At £10, then, in the room. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
12, fresh place. 15? | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
£12, now. Thank you, sir. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
At £12 here. In the room, then, at 12. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
-A hat trick - all three. -A hat trick of losses, sadly. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
So 19, 29, minus 35. You are minus £35, girls. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:34 | |
-Wow! -Now, the Newlyn copper tray cost £35. | 0:23:34 | 0:23:38 | |
-I think we've got to go for it. -What do you think, Phil? | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
Well, I don't know, really. | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
-I think we'll go for it. -We've got to. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:43 | |
You don't have to, actually. You can just park it. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
Because minus £35 could be a winning score. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
-Are you going for it or not? Quick! -Go for it. -Go for it. -All right. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
We're cracking on. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
The Newlyn-style copper tray and commission's with me here at £20. | 0:23:52 | 0:23:57 | |
22, now? 22. 25. 28? 30, 32, 35, 38? | 0:23:57 | 0:24:02 | |
40, 2, 45. 48? | 0:24:02 | 0:24:04 | |
45 my bid, then. At £45. | 0:24:04 | 0:24:07 | |
And eight now, anybody else? | 0:24:07 | 0:24:08 | |
-Good man! -Commission's with me, then, at 45. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:10 | |
Eight, now? At £45... | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
-Yes! -Good decision, girls. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
-That's plus £10. -See the faith we had in you? | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
-Good boy. That's reduced your losses to minus £25. -Minus £25. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:22 | |
Which is more respectable. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
That's why you love the man. That's why he does the business for you, which is marvellous. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:28 | |
Anyway, so you've got a total of minus 25, which could be a winning score. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:33 | |
-It could be. -So say not a word to the Blues, OK? | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
-OK, JP, how's it going for you? All right? -Yeah, yeah, it's fine. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:49 | |
-Confident? -No. -Oh, come on! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
Well, the cabinet is first up and here it comes. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
So, the pearl cabinet there, with the inlay | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
and specimen woods, as you can see. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
And interest here with me at £40. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
At 40 with me. And five I'm looking for now. My bid here at £40. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
-Commission at 40. Five, I can see. -Come on. -50, 5, 60, 5. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:11 | |
OK, OK. Come on. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:12 | |
-70, 5. -OK. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
£70 bid is with me. And five elsewhere? | 0:25:14 | 0:25:16 | |
-Anybody else? Anybody else? -My bid then at £70. -Come on. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:20 | |
-THEY GROAN -£70. -I felt sure that one was worth more. -Miserable. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:23 | |
Minus £35. Miserable. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:25 | |
OK, now the photo frame. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
The Art Nouveau-style silver photograph frame. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |
It's London 1968, at 20, 25, 30. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
-OK, that's good. -Good. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
-35, now? -Come on. | 0:25:35 | 0:25:37 | |
£30 bid is here. Five I'm looking for. | 0:25:37 | 0:25:39 | |
-Oh, somebody...! -35, 40, 45 online. -Come on, come on. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:43 | |
-My bid at 40. 45 internet? -I don't believe this. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:47 | |
At £40, then. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
£40 and you are plus £1. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
-We're playing catch-up. -That means you're minus 29. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:53 | |
-Oh, dear. -Now the rectangular tray. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
The Victorian papier-mache gilt rectangular tray | 0:25:55 | 0:25:58 | |
and commission's here with me at 40. | 0:25:58 | 0:26:00 | |
-At £40 here. 45 I'm looking for. -Come on. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:03 | |
-At 40 with me. -Somebody! | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
-42 I'll take. 45, 48. -One more. -Let's not haggle. At 45 with me. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:10 | |
48, now? At £45 then... | 0:26:10 | 0:26:14 | |
-My bid at 45. -I can't believe it. -Disappointing. -Very. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:17 | |
That is minus £5 on that, which means you're back to minus 34. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:22 | |
Minus £34. So are we going with the sovereign case or not? | 0:26:22 | 0:26:26 | |
I think we have to, don't you? | 0:26:26 | 0:26:27 | |
-You don't have to. Minus 34 could be a winning score. -It could be but I think... | 0:26:27 | 0:26:30 | |
-You can park it. -We're not going to make... I don't think we're going to lose on it. | 0:26:30 | 0:26:34 | |
-Let's go for it. -Let's go for it. -I agree. -A bit of excitement. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:37 | |
We've got nothing to lose, have we? | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
I think it will go for 40. We'll make £5 on it. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:42 | |
OK, we have a prediction. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
-Are you happy? Are we going to go with it? -Definitely. -OK, lovely. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:48 | |
-We're going with the bonus buy at £35... -Come on. -..and here it comes. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:52 | |
It is the late Victorian leather case sovereign holder. | 0:26:52 | 0:26:55 | |
-More like a charity case, this one. -Charity case? -Bid me £5. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
-Five I have, thank you. -Five? -Eight. Ten I have, here. 12? 12 I have. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:03 | |
-And 15. -Oh, for goodness' sake. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:05 | |
-18. -Come on! -This is mean. -20, 22, 25, 28, 30, 2. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:09 | |
-One more, sir. -At £30 here. -One more. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
-32 at all? -One more? -Quite sure, then, at 30? | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
THEY GROAN | 0:27:14 | 0:27:17 | |
So instead of making five we lost five. | 0:27:17 | 0:27:18 | |
-Didn't you say a profit of £5? -I thought we'd make a profit of £5. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
-I meant the word "loss". -You had five in your mind. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:23 | |
-I meant "loss". -You had five in your mind but in the mists of your prediction... | 0:27:23 | 0:27:27 | |
Yeah, I got that wrong. I did mean a loss of £5. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:31 | |
-Anyway, minus 39 is the end score. -Never mind. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:33 | |
-That could be a winning score. Don't talk to the Reds. -We won't. | 0:27:33 | 0:27:36 | |
-All will be revealed in a moment. -Fantastic. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
-Thank you very much. -Brilliant. Thank you, Tim. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
Oh, dear, neither team making a profit today. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
With only £14 between them, | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |
the Reds narrowly had the winning score with minus £25. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:49 | |
Coming up, will our next two teams manage to make | 0:27:51 | 0:27:53 | |
some marvellous profits? We'll see. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:56 | |
Meanwhile, we're heading off somewhere positively divine. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:05 | |
Antony in Cornwall has been home to the Carew family for over 600 years. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:11 | |
It continues to be a home to the latest generation of Carew Poles | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |
and is also the perfect space to display the wide variety | 0:28:15 | 0:28:19 | |
of fascinating artefacts, antiques and furniture | 0:28:19 | 0:28:22 | |
the family have collected. | 0:28:22 | 0:28:24 | |
It was the Roman philosopher Cicero who said, | 0:28:24 | 0:28:29 | |
"To add a library to a house is to give it soul," | 0:28:29 | 0:28:33 | |
and here at Antony, certainly this library is a soulful place. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:38 | |
And out of the collection of books in the library, | 0:28:38 | 0:28:43 | |
one of the most notable that's caught my eye is this, | 0:28:43 | 0:28:47 | |
which is absolutely unique and relevant to Antony. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:52 | |
If I turn to the title page, | 0:28:52 | 0:28:54 | |
it says Antony House in Cornwall A Seat Of Reginald Pole Carew. | 0:28:54 | 0:29:00 | |
In the introduction page, it identifies the author, | 0:29:00 | 0:29:03 | |
the landscape gardener Humphrey Repton, | 0:29:03 | 0:29:06 | |
who produced this for Pole Carew in October 1792. | 0:29:06 | 0:29:13 | |
This particular book is a facsimile, it's a modern reproduction, | 0:29:13 | 0:29:18 | |
but it contains plates that are relevant, | 0:29:18 | 0:29:20 | |
so let's pop outside and have a bird's-eye. | 0:29:20 | 0:29:23 | |
So, in 1792, Reginald Pole Carew would have stood here | 0:29:27 | 0:29:33 | |
on the north front of his mansion house, | 0:29:33 | 0:29:36 | |
looking out over the garden with Humphrey Repton. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:40 | |
And the view they would have seen at that moment looked like this. | 0:29:40 | 0:29:45 | |
Effectively, a tall stone wall ran through the park at this point, | 0:29:45 | 0:29:51 | |
with the distant Tamar beyond. | 0:29:51 | 0:29:54 | |
Such was the magic of Repton's art | 0:29:54 | 0:29:58 | |
that by folding back these paper sections, | 0:29:58 | 0:30:02 | |
he'd be able to illustrate to Reginald Pole Carew | 0:30:02 | 0:30:06 | |
exactly what he would see from this point | 0:30:06 | 0:30:10 | |
after the works and plantings had matured. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:13 | |
And if you look at his vision for the future | 0:30:13 | 0:30:17 | |
and then what we see today, | 0:30:17 | 0:30:19 | |
sure enough, you do get three delicious glimpses | 0:30:19 | 0:30:24 | |
of the distant Tamar with those lovely hills beyond. | 0:30:24 | 0:30:28 | |
Hmm! Clever, isn't it? | 0:30:28 | 0:30:30 | |
Back in Topsham, at the Quay Antiques Centre, | 0:30:30 | 0:30:34 | |
and there's bargains galore awaiting our next two teams to snap up. | 0:30:34 | 0:30:38 | |
But who are they? | 0:30:38 | 0:30:40 | |
Today we have Tom and Patrick, brothers representing the Reds, | 0:30:40 | 0:30:46 | |
and partners Lisa and Paul for the Blues. | 0:30:46 | 0:30:48 | |
-Hello, everyone. -ALL: Hello! | 0:30:48 | 0:30:50 | |
Lovely to see you. | 0:30:50 | 0:30:51 | |
Tom, let's start with you. What line of work are you in? | 0:30:51 | 0:30:54 | |
I'm a stand-up comedian/ sit-down writer. | 0:30:54 | 0:30:57 | |
-Are you really? -Yes. | 0:30:57 | 0:30:59 | |
In that order? | 0:30:59 | 0:31:00 | |
A little bit of both. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:01 | |
-Really? -Yeah. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:02 | |
Well, that's very brave - stand-up comicry. | 0:31:02 | 0:31:05 | |
I suppose it is fairly, yeah. | 0:31:05 | 0:31:07 | |
I don't think I could do that, I have to say. | 0:31:07 | 0:31:10 | |
Well, you get used to it. | 0:31:10 | 0:31:12 | |
I mean, I still get pretty nervous before going on, but... | 0:31:12 | 0:31:15 | |
They say that the adrenaline nerve is the thing that gives you | 0:31:15 | 0:31:19 | |
-your edge, but it's not a nice thing, though, is it? -No, it's not. | 0:31:19 | 0:31:22 | |
If you're going to stand up in a beery environment | 0:31:22 | 0:31:24 | |
and try and make somebody laugh and they don't find you amusing, | 0:31:24 | 0:31:27 | |
-then you soon know that, don't you? -Hasn't happened often, though. | 0:31:27 | 0:31:30 | |
Well, I'm glad to hear that. Well, good luck with it. | 0:31:30 | 0:31:32 | |
Now, Patrick, what do you get up to? | 0:31:32 | 0:31:34 | |
Your brother's establishing himself as a writer and comic, | 0:31:34 | 0:31:37 | |
-what do you do? -I've actually got, sort of, two jobs on the go. | 0:31:37 | 0:31:41 | |
First one being taxidermy, | 0:31:41 | 0:31:43 | |
which I've been doing since I was about 12, | 0:31:43 | 0:31:45 | |
and I'm a gamekeeper as well in my spare time. | 0:31:45 | 0:31:49 | |
Well, those two connected jobs are rather convenient, aren't they? | 0:31:49 | 0:31:53 | |
They go rather well together, yes. | 0:31:53 | 0:31:55 | |
You've done some pretty big mammals in your time, haven't you? | 0:31:55 | 0:31:59 | |
Yes, not ones that I've personally shot - | 0:31:59 | 0:32:02 | |
things that were found about 100 years ago. | 0:32:02 | 0:32:05 | |
Things like tigers and polar bears. | 0:32:05 | 0:32:07 | |
-Have you done big cats? -Yeah, I've worked on a few of those, yeah. | 0:32:07 | 0:32:10 | |
Oh, God. What are you going to go for, you two? | 0:32:10 | 0:32:13 | |
Just anything a bit fun, a bit quirky, really. | 0:32:13 | 0:32:16 | |
We want to find fun stuff - we're not in the market for crockery. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:19 | |
Not something you'd find on Grandma's shelf. | 0:32:19 | 0:32:21 | |
Something a bit different that's going to stand out in the auction. | 0:32:21 | 0:32:24 | |
This is the voice of youth today! | 0:32:24 | 0:32:26 | |
What is going to happen on Bargain Hunt? Anyway, very good luck. | 0:32:26 | 0:32:29 | |
So, team. | 0:32:29 | 0:32:31 | |
-How did you and Paul meet, Lisa? -We met a couple of years ago. | 0:32:31 | 0:32:34 | |
Paul's a host at one of the local hotels in Torquay, | 0:32:34 | 0:32:37 | |
I was brought in as the Christmas Day singer, | 0:32:37 | 0:32:40 | |
and we sort of hit it off. Paul texted me later that evening | 0:32:40 | 0:32:43 | |
and we've been together pretty much ever since. | 0:32:43 | 0:32:46 | |
-Why don't you give us a trill, then, Lise? -OK. | 0:32:46 | 0:32:48 | |
Here we go, then. Stand by. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:49 | |
Exercise your vocal cords, | 0:32:49 | 0:32:51 | |
because this is...Lisa! | 0:32:51 | 0:32:55 | |
# Ain't no sunshine when he's gone | 0:32:55 | 0:32:57 | |
# It's not warm when he's away | 0:32:59 | 0:33:03 | |
# Ain't no sunshine when he's gone | 0:33:03 | 0:33:07 | |
# This house just ain't no home | 0:33:07 | 0:33:10 | |
# Any time he goes away. # | 0:33:10 | 0:33:12 | |
Now, listen, how brave do you have to be to do that? | 0:33:12 | 0:33:16 | |
You've got a really beautiful voice. | 0:33:16 | 0:33:18 | |
-Thank you. -That's fantastic. | 0:33:18 | 0:33:20 | |
No backing group, she didn't know | 0:33:20 | 0:33:22 | |
she was going to have to do it, and out she trilled, which is great. | 0:33:22 | 0:33:25 | |
Paul, you're in the same line of business, then? | 0:33:25 | 0:33:28 | |
Yeah, pretty much the same line. | 0:33:28 | 0:33:30 | |
I do the all-round entertainment thing. | 0:33:30 | 0:33:32 | |
I obviously sing a few songs, tell a few gags. | 0:33:32 | 0:33:36 | |
I also run my own disco company as well. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:38 | |
Seems to me that you two were made for each other, then. | 0:33:38 | 0:33:41 | |
-That's rather clever, isn't it? -Yes. | 0:33:41 | 0:33:42 | |
Now, guys, what do you collect and what's your tactics going to be? | 0:33:42 | 0:33:45 | |
-What do you collect, Lisa? -I collect shoes. -Do you? | 0:33:45 | 0:33:48 | |
I don't know if it's a... Well, it is a collection, as such, | 0:33:48 | 0:33:51 | |
I've probably got in excess of 80 pairs. | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
Are you the Imelda Marcos of Torquay? | 0:33:53 | 0:33:56 | |
The first thing she did when we moved in together was | 0:33:56 | 0:33:58 | |
-she made me go out and buy her a shoe wardrobe. -Yes. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:01 | |
You never know what you're going to find in an antique centre like Topsham. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:04 | |
Anyway, the money moment now, £300 apiece. There's your £300. | 0:34:04 | 0:34:08 | |
You know the rules, your experts await, and off you go! | 0:34:08 | 0:34:11 | |
Very, very, very good luck. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:13 | |
I feel like bursting into song myself. | 0:34:13 | 0:34:16 | |
-So, you... This one here... -Yes. | 0:34:22 | 0:34:25 | |
-You stuff things? -I do indeed. | 0:34:25 | 0:34:27 | |
And you, you crack them up laughing? | 0:34:27 | 0:34:30 | |
-I try to. -Oh, right, OK, fine. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
I think I'm going to stick on your side and not your side, then. | 0:34:33 | 0:34:36 | |
-Don't turn your back to him. -No, absolutely. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:38 | |
OK, guys, so we're by the seaside. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:41 | |
And I'm with a couple of lovebirds. | 0:34:41 | 0:34:43 | |
-Even a couple of songbirds. -Indeed you are. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:46 | |
And before we go Bargain Hunting, can you give me a warm up? | 0:34:46 | 0:34:49 | |
# La-la-la-la-la-la! # | 0:34:49 | 0:34:52 | |
-Follow me. -Woo! CHARLES LAUGHS | 0:34:52 | 0:34:55 | |
And they're off, with both teams raring to go. | 0:34:56 | 0:34:58 | |
Their 60 minutes start now. | 0:34:58 | 0:35:01 | |
Now, this, Patrick, is stuffed, so it's not exactly what you want. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:17 | |
It was never living, though. | 0:35:17 | 0:35:19 | |
-It's an old... It's described as an old teddy bear. -It's £39! | 0:35:20 | 0:35:24 | |
Yeah, but it might be worth a lot of money. | 0:35:24 | 0:35:26 | |
It's got a mini chair, though. | 0:35:26 | 0:35:28 | |
Could we not buy him and the chair and then have it as one thing? | 0:35:28 | 0:35:32 | |
-One lovely, little... -What have you found, guys? -teddy bear on a chair. | 0:35:32 | 0:35:35 | |
And how much is the chair? | 0:35:35 | 0:35:37 | |
-I like the chair, but I hate the bear. -The chair is £22. | 0:35:37 | 0:35:40 | |
-Let's have a look. The chair... -It's a little bit damaged. | 0:35:40 | 0:35:43 | |
I think the chair's a bit fun, isn't it? | 0:35:43 | 0:35:46 | |
-Yeah. -It's for tiny people. | 0:35:46 | 0:35:49 | |
-That rules you and I out. -Yeah. | 0:35:49 | 0:35:51 | |
What do you think its background would be? | 0:35:51 | 0:35:53 | |
Well, it's copying a sort of a late 18th/early 19th-century | 0:35:53 | 0:35:57 | |
rush-seated, ladder-backed chair. That's called a ladder back | 0:35:57 | 0:36:00 | |
because it's like a ladder that you step up, OK? Erm... | 0:36:00 | 0:36:03 | |
When I first saw it, I thought it was probably 1950s, | 0:36:04 | 0:36:09 | |
but I think it might be a little bit earlier than that. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:11 | |
If you can get that for 15 quid, I think it gives you a chance. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:15 | |
-So that's our cheapo, isn't it? -That's our cheap option. | 0:36:15 | 0:36:17 | |
-Go and have a word with the man up there. -With this? | 0:36:17 | 0:36:21 | |
-Yeah, and let the stuffer and I go and see what we can find. -OK. | 0:36:21 | 0:36:24 | |
So, whilst Tom negotiates for the chair, | 0:36:26 | 0:36:29 | |
the Blues continue to hunt high and low for that elusive first buy. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:33 | |
-Now, what have they found here? -They're nice, aren't they? -Yeah. | 0:36:33 | 0:36:37 | |
-They are nice. -I like them. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:39 | |
Good spot - I like them. | 0:36:39 | 0:36:40 | |
-And I think you'd buy them as a pair, wouldn't you? -Yeah. | 0:36:40 | 0:36:44 | |
-I like that one. -Because they're very aesthetic, aren't they? | 0:36:44 | 0:36:48 | |
And they're actually... | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
little, sort of table...almost like fruit bowls, aren't they? | 0:36:50 | 0:36:54 | |
Or just little table centrepieces. | 0:36:54 | 0:36:56 | |
But they are quite decorative. | 0:36:56 | 0:36:58 | |
These go back to around 1885, 1890. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:01 | |
And at the height of the fashion for all things Japanese. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:06 | |
These were made for the western market. | 0:37:06 | 0:37:09 | |
£24 a pair, should be worth 40? | 0:37:09 | 0:37:11 | |
I reckon, at auction, | 0:37:11 | 0:37:13 | |
I would guide them at between, probably, 40 and 60. | 0:37:13 | 0:37:17 | |
50 and £70. So if I can get a deal... | 0:37:17 | 0:37:19 | |
They're £28 each, aren't they? | 0:37:19 | 0:37:21 | |
-BOTH: 24. -That's OK, which makes what? -48. | 0:37:21 | 0:37:24 | |
-Exactly. He's a clever guy. -Yeah! | 0:37:24 | 0:37:26 | |
He's a clever guy. 48, OK. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:28 | |
If we could get the pair for, like, I don't know, £35, even 30... | 0:37:28 | 0:37:33 | |
-Go in at 30. -Yeah, go in at £30, yeah. | 0:37:33 | 0:37:35 | |
Whilst the Blues head off to get a price for the plates, | 0:37:36 | 0:37:39 | |
it seems Tom has an update about the chair. | 0:37:39 | 0:37:43 | |
Here we go, take a seat. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:44 | |
-Now you're rushing me. -Here. | 0:37:44 | 0:37:46 | |
Now listen, do you think if you put this into auction | 0:37:46 | 0:37:48 | |
you're going to have a leg to stand on?! | 0:37:48 | 0:37:49 | |
-There we go! -18 quid. I think that at auction is going to make... | 0:37:49 | 0:37:55 | |
I think it's going to make between 20 and 35 quid. | 0:37:55 | 0:37:57 | |
Well, that would be a profit. | 0:37:57 | 0:37:58 | |
-Let's go and put that over there. -Right. | 0:37:58 | 0:38:00 | |
Definitely buy it, and we'll just carry on and see what we can find. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:04 | |
-Excellent. -Right. | 0:38:04 | 0:38:05 | |
Great news - that's the first item in the old bag for the Reds, | 0:38:05 | 0:38:08 | |
and only 20 minutes into the shop. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:10 | |
Now, what's the latest on them plates? | 0:38:10 | 0:38:13 | |
-Cheapest we can do it would be £40. -Did you hear that? | 0:38:14 | 0:38:18 | |
That's pretty good, it's £8 off. So from 48, we've come down to 40. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:23 | |
-Worth a gamble? -I think so - | 0:38:23 | 0:38:24 | |
-we're running out of time, aren't we? -Think so? -Yep. | 0:38:24 | 0:38:27 | |
-Need to buy something. -Let's buy them. Yeah? | 0:38:27 | 0:38:30 | |
-We'll take. -Job done. | 0:38:30 | 0:38:31 | |
-Thank you. -Thank you. | 0:38:31 | 0:38:33 | |
One down, two to go. So, both teams have their purchases. | 0:38:33 | 0:38:36 | |
30 minutes in, and it seems Charles has spotted | 0:38:38 | 0:38:41 | |
another oriental piece for the Blues. | 0:38:41 | 0:38:44 | |
-Paul, it's a blue and white plate, right? -Yep. -Lisa, do you like it? | 0:38:44 | 0:38:48 | |
-Yeah. -You've got here... | 0:38:48 | 0:38:50 | |
You've got the sea, you've got a lakeland landscape, | 0:38:50 | 0:38:54 | |
but this plate was made in the 18th century. | 0:38:54 | 0:38:57 | |
It was made under the reign of Emperor Chien-Lung, or Qianlong, | 0:38:57 | 0:39:01 | |
who... It was a period of history from 1735 to '95. | 0:39:01 | 0:39:05 | |
So, this would go back to around the French Revolution. | 0:39:05 | 0:39:09 | |
It would go back to the time of King George III. It's 18th century. | 0:39:09 | 0:39:13 | |
-Isn't it great? -Yeah. | 0:39:13 | 0:39:15 | |
And it's £12. And to me... that's a bargain. | 0:39:15 | 0:39:19 | |
-Lisa doesn't look quite so sure, Charles. -Lisa, look at me! | 0:39:19 | 0:39:23 | |
Lisa, this is it. This is the gold mine. This really is... | 0:39:23 | 0:39:28 | |
Buy an antique with a big capital A. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:31 | |
Because it really is what it purports to be. | 0:39:31 | 0:39:33 | |
-Shall we try and make an offer? -Yes. -Yes. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:35 | |
-Give him a shout, Paul, he's over there. -And your best deal? | 0:39:35 | 0:39:39 | |
Probably be ten at the lowest. | 0:39:41 | 0:39:44 | |
Well, it's a good thing. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:47 | |
It's a shame we can't get a bit more off, but £10 is £10. | 0:39:47 | 0:39:51 | |
-Just remember, it is blue, OK? -We are Team Blue, let's go for it. £10. | 0:39:51 | 0:39:57 | |
-OK, that's it. -We've got to go with it, and then let's go and spend... | 0:39:57 | 0:40:00 | |
-How much is left over? -BOTH: £250. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:04 | |
-Really? -Let's buy something big. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:06 | |
-Let's go big for Lisa. -OK. | 0:40:06 | 0:40:08 | |
OK, we'll take it, sir. Thanks ever so much, great. | 0:40:08 | 0:40:11 | |
Don't worry, Blues - you're in safe hands with Carlos. | 0:40:11 | 0:40:14 | |
Now, what have the Reds spotted here? | 0:40:14 | 0:40:16 | |
Let's have a look at these two. | 0:40:16 | 0:40:19 | |
That's the old... What's that? | 0:40:19 | 0:40:20 | |
That would be a... Oh, I reckon this is probably a rack adjust. | 0:40:20 | 0:40:24 | |
-Oh, the old rack-adjust telescope. -Yeah. -Looks like one. | 0:40:24 | 0:40:27 | |
-You do the gags, he stuffs. -You've been doing the gags! | 0:40:27 | 0:40:29 | |
-I'm the antique man. -I'll do some of the antique stuff now. There we go. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:32 | |
-Kids trying to nick our jobs now. -I like that one, that's quite sweet. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
What would be nice... Normally, there's a maker's name here. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:39 | |
-There you go. The Spotter. -I quite like that. -I like its action. | 0:40:39 | 0:40:44 | |
-Do you really? -This one doesn't have... | 0:40:44 | 0:40:46 | |
-Well, that's the old rack adjust, isn't it? -Well, exactly. | 0:40:46 | 0:40:50 | |
That's priced up at £59. | 0:40:50 | 0:40:52 | |
I think at auction that's going to make | 0:40:52 | 0:40:54 | |
probably 30 to 50, 40 to 60 quid. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:56 | |
-Right. -So you've got to be buying that for... | 0:40:56 | 0:40:58 | |
I suspect it's not going to come to much below 50, | 0:40:59 | 0:41:02 | |
which doesn't give you much of a chance. | 0:41:02 | 0:41:04 | |
-It is nice, though. -I think it's a 40 to £50 lot. | 0:41:04 | 0:41:08 | |
I'd like to see you buy that. Do you want to have a word with the lady? | 0:41:08 | 0:41:11 | |
-Let's have a haggle, shall we? -Yeah. | 0:41:11 | 0:41:13 | |
Could you possibly find out | 0:41:13 | 0:41:16 | |
what the best is you could do on that for us, my love, please? | 0:41:16 | 0:41:19 | |
-So, two small items, let's now try and find that really big one. -Yeah. | 0:41:20 | 0:41:24 | |
-Yeah. -Really big. -Really big one, really big one! -Oh, hello! | 0:41:24 | 0:41:28 | |
-So, you just bought your plate? -Yes. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:31 | |
-That's nice, isn't it? -Yeah. In good order. Yeah, exactly. | 0:41:32 | 0:41:37 | |
-Little hairline crack. -Oh, yes, thank you! | 0:41:37 | 0:41:40 | |
I think I'll shut up while I'm ahead. You can re-negotiate now. | 0:41:41 | 0:41:45 | |
I don't know, it cost £10. | 0:41:45 | 0:41:46 | |
I didn't see that. I've missed that lovely little crack there, | 0:41:46 | 0:41:49 | |
and Mr Wonnacott's just seen it. | 0:41:49 | 0:41:52 | |
Yeah, thanks, thanks, mate(!) | 0:41:52 | 0:41:54 | |
-I can't believe it! Sorry, guys. -It's been lovely seeing you! | 0:41:54 | 0:41:58 | |
Yeah, look, you can see just there. | 0:41:58 | 0:42:00 | |
I've got an appetite, and tonight it might mean what? | 0:42:00 | 0:42:03 | |
-Singing for our supper? -Well, my supper, exactly. I can't believe it. | 0:42:03 | 0:42:07 | |
£10 down, but do you know what? It's 18th century and we'll stand by it. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:10 | |
-And do you know what? It might still make a profit. -Yeah. -You watch. | 0:42:10 | 0:42:13 | |
-£10. -Exactly. | 0:42:13 | 0:42:15 | |
Ever the optimist, Charles! | 0:42:15 | 0:42:18 | |
Whilst waiting for a price on the telescope, what has Phil fished out? | 0:42:18 | 0:42:23 | |
Salmon gaff, look. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:25 | |
-Salmon gaff? -Yeah. | 0:42:25 | 0:42:26 | |
So you'd be out fishing for your salmon | 0:42:26 | 0:42:30 | |
and you'd get one on the line. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:31 | |
And as it comes in, instead of netting it, you'd hook it. | 0:42:31 | 0:42:34 | |
-And you extend it and you hook it like that. -Careful, careful! | 0:42:34 | 0:42:36 | |
Easy, tiger. And this is all in brass. | 0:42:36 | 0:42:39 | |
And this is... | 0:42:40 | 0:42:42 | |
Might be rosewood, or what does it say on the thing? | 0:42:42 | 0:42:45 | |
It just says "Telescopic salmon gaff". And it's priced at £98. | 0:42:45 | 0:42:49 | |
I bought one of these 12 years ago and paid about 160 quid for it. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:53 | |
-Do you like that? -I do, yes. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:54 | |
Is that your sort of thing? | 0:42:54 | 0:42:56 | |
It's an interesting... | 0:42:56 | 0:42:57 | |
Have a word with the dealer and see what the best price for that is, | 0:42:57 | 0:43:00 | |
see what the best price for the telescope is, | 0:43:00 | 0:43:02 | |
what the best price for the two is, | 0:43:02 | 0:43:04 | |
ask him to put them by for half an hour, | 0:43:04 | 0:43:06 | |
-then that takes the pressure off us a bit, doesn't it? -Yeah. -Absolutely. | 0:43:06 | 0:43:09 | |
-Job's done. -Brilliant. | 0:43:09 | 0:43:10 | |
-I will go and have a word with the dealer. -Thank you very much. | 0:43:10 | 0:43:13 | |
So, good luck with reeling in a deal, Phil. | 0:43:13 | 0:43:16 | |
But the teams have only 15 minutes left to go. | 0:43:16 | 0:43:20 | |
It's always nice to spend cheap, but when you spend cheap | 0:43:20 | 0:43:23 | |
and buy badly, it's even worse. | 0:43:23 | 0:43:25 | |
So, the two Japanese dishes are delightful, | 0:43:25 | 0:43:29 | |
and for £40 they're on the money, | 0:43:29 | 0:43:31 | |
but that plate, which had | 0:43:31 | 0:43:33 | |
such a pedigree, is now just a broken plate. | 0:43:33 | 0:43:36 | |
Guys, are we ready? Now, then. Here's the plan. | 0:43:36 | 0:43:40 | |
The telescope, which was £59, we can have for 50. | 0:43:40 | 0:43:45 | |
And that's the finish, OK? The gaff, which was £98, we can have for 85. | 0:43:45 | 0:43:50 | |
And if we buy them both, they're still 50 and 85. | 0:43:50 | 0:43:53 | |
So, my suggestion is we put them both by | 0:43:53 | 0:43:55 | |
for however long we've got left, have a look round. | 0:43:55 | 0:43:59 | |
I can see us definitely coming back for this, and if we can't find | 0:43:59 | 0:44:02 | |
anything better that floats our boat, we'll come back for this. | 0:44:02 | 0:44:05 | |
-Yeah. -But what we don't want to do is make a gaff, do we? -Oh! | 0:44:05 | 0:44:07 | |
That's another maritime pun, at it again! | 0:44:07 | 0:44:10 | |
Phil, leave the gags to Tom, will you? | 0:44:10 | 0:44:13 | |
Looks like Charles has a plan to spend some money. | 0:44:13 | 0:44:16 | |
-Do you know? I'm thinking...I'm thinking nice piece of silver. -Yes. | 0:44:16 | 0:44:20 | |
Something sparkly to give us a bit of flamboyance. | 0:44:20 | 0:44:23 | |
-Definitely. -Let's do it. | 0:44:23 | 0:44:24 | |
Despite time ticking on, | 0:44:26 | 0:44:28 | |
Phil and the boys decide to talk tactics in the sunshine. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:32 | |
We've just had to come outside to get a bit of clear thinking | 0:44:32 | 0:44:34 | |
on this, haven't we? We've rushed, | 0:44:34 | 0:44:36 | |
ground floor, first floor, second floor, | 0:44:36 | 0:44:38 | |
we've seen pretty much everything there is. | 0:44:38 | 0:44:40 | |
-Is there anything else that you like at all? -Erm... | 0:44:40 | 0:44:43 | |
-I don't know. I mean... I like the salmon hook. -Yeah. | 0:44:43 | 0:44:46 | |
-What's it called? BOTH: -Gaff. | 0:44:46 | 0:44:48 | |
-I like the gaff, but...I don't know. -Yeah. | 0:44:48 | 0:44:51 | |
-I think we don't have any time to... -There's nothing else I've seen... | 0:44:51 | 0:44:54 | |
We've got three to five minutes left, or something like that. | 0:44:54 | 0:44:57 | |
So literally all we've got time for is to go back in and say, | 0:44:57 | 0:45:00 | |
"Yes, we'll have them." | 0:45:00 | 0:45:02 | |
-Yeah. -So, it's 50 quid and £85. | 0:45:02 | 0:45:04 | |
Otherwise, we end up just taking away a small chair. | 0:45:04 | 0:45:06 | |
Yeah, otherwise we go into the final conflict | 0:45:06 | 0:45:09 | |
with £18 worth of modern chair, really. | 0:45:09 | 0:45:11 | |
-So, that's not the answer, is it? -Let's get the gaff. | 0:45:11 | 0:45:14 | |
Let's just hope it doesn't leave us like that over there. | 0:45:14 | 0:45:17 | |
Er, anyone got that sinking feeling? | 0:45:17 | 0:45:19 | |
Right, we got to go here. Come on, guys. | 0:45:21 | 0:45:23 | |
I hope they're still here. Oh, that's a relief. Here we are. | 0:45:25 | 0:45:27 | |
-I didn't sell them! -50 and 85, job's done? -Done, let's do it. | 0:45:27 | 0:45:31 | |
-Shake hands, shake with the man. -Jolly good, 135. | 0:45:31 | 0:45:34 | |
-I think you've made the right decision. -Thank you very much. | 0:45:34 | 0:45:36 | |
So, the Reds have landed all three items, | 0:45:36 | 0:45:38 | |
and with only minutes to go, it's crunch time for the Blues. | 0:45:38 | 0:45:42 | |
-This is it now, this is where time is really of the essence. -Yeah. | 0:45:42 | 0:45:45 | |
This is a very, very nice silver christening mug | 0:45:45 | 0:45:48 | |
with a good weight. The one problem is, it has got an inscription. | 0:45:48 | 0:45:51 | |
It says here, "ES Parkin, from his godfather." | 0:45:51 | 0:45:54 | |
So that's not so good, | 0:45:54 | 0:45:55 | |
because inscribed objects haven't got the same popularity. | 0:45:55 | 0:45:58 | |
What's that like? | 0:45:58 | 0:45:59 | |
-It's quite heavy, it's quite pretty. -Yep. | 0:45:59 | 0:46:01 | |
-I like this, more so than I like... -OK, let's have... | 0:46:01 | 0:46:06 | |
This is early, which is good. This is 1830, who was King of England? | 0:46:06 | 0:46:09 | |
-I'll test you. -Don't ask me! | 0:46:09 | 0:46:11 | |
William. William IV. He was in his first year. | 0:46:11 | 0:46:14 | |
The maker, we can see, is G Turner. | 0:46:14 | 0:46:16 | |
We've got the all-important Exeter three-turret mark on there as well. | 0:46:16 | 0:46:21 | |
What would you use it for? | 0:46:21 | 0:46:23 | |
-Fish. -Exactly, and where are we? | 0:46:23 | 0:46:25 | |
-In Topsham. -On the...? | 0:46:25 | 0:46:27 | |
-Along the coast? -Exactly, so it might appeal to fish people, | 0:46:27 | 0:46:30 | |
perhaps fishermen and all of that. | 0:46:30 | 0:46:31 | |
And we're going to Exeter and, of course, it's hallmarked for Exeter, | 0:46:31 | 0:46:35 | |
so maybe fish of Topsham and Exeter being its place of assay | 0:46:35 | 0:46:38 | |
all those years ago, it might have a popularity. | 0:46:38 | 0:46:41 | |
But it needs to be nearer £200 to give us a chance, OK? | 0:46:41 | 0:46:45 | |
We've got three minutes to go. | 0:46:45 | 0:46:46 | |
-What's the best you can do us on this? -I don't know. | 0:46:46 | 0:46:49 | |
We could go to 200 and...20. | 0:46:52 | 0:46:55 | |
15. | 0:46:55 | 0:46:57 | |
-You wouldn't go one more? -We've got 30 seconds left! | 0:46:57 | 0:47:00 | |
Give us a slice off, sir! | 0:47:00 | 0:47:01 | |
How much are you going to pay me back?! | 0:47:01 | 0:47:02 | |
-THEY LAUGH -All right, 215. | 0:47:02 | 0:47:04 | |
Job done. Sold. Job done. We got it. That's great. | 0:47:04 | 0:47:07 | |
Thank you, sir. Shake his hand quick. | 0:47:07 | 0:47:09 | |
That's it. | 0:47:09 | 0:47:10 | |
-That was close! -That was too close for comfort. | 0:47:12 | 0:47:15 | |
Congratulations, Blues. | 0:47:15 | 0:47:17 | |
You've finished your shop too, and just in the nick of time. | 0:47:17 | 0:47:22 | |
Now it's time to sell, and we're off | 0:47:22 | 0:47:24 | |
to the Bearnes, Hampton & Littlewood saleroom in Honiton. | 0:47:24 | 0:47:28 | |
Before we find out if they make a profit or not, | 0:47:28 | 0:47:30 | |
let's have a reminder of what the Reds bought. | 0:47:30 | 0:47:33 | |
First of all, they stuffed £18 into a rush-seated ladder-back chair. | 0:47:35 | 0:47:39 | |
Next, they zoomed in on this telescope, picking it up for £50. | 0:47:42 | 0:47:47 | |
Finally, the brass and turned-wood salmon gaff caught their eye at £85. | 0:47:48 | 0:47:55 | |
-Tom, Patrick - are you ready for this? -Definitely. | 0:47:55 | 0:47:58 | |
You spent 153. He had 147. What did you spend it on, Phil? | 0:47:58 | 0:48:03 | |
I just had a vision of these boys in the pub, | 0:48:03 | 0:48:06 | |
having a quiet game of crib and a smoke. | 0:48:06 | 0:48:09 | |
So I bought this. | 0:48:09 | 0:48:10 | |
England's Glory - the match people. | 0:48:10 | 0:48:12 | |
It's a crib board. | 0:48:12 | 0:48:14 | |
-You're completely underwhelmed. -I am a bit! | 0:48:14 | 0:48:17 | |
Tom, have you ever played cribbage? | 0:48:17 | 0:48:19 | |
-I have. -Good. | 0:48:19 | 0:48:21 | |
I was one of the most boring games I've played, | 0:48:21 | 0:48:23 | |
if I'm honest with you, Phil. | 0:48:23 | 0:48:25 | |
So this is going to go down really well(!) | 0:48:25 | 0:48:27 | |
You're not a member of the British Cribbage Society(?) | 0:48:27 | 0:48:29 | |
They wouldn't have me. No. | 0:48:29 | 0:48:31 | |
Explain to your bro exactly what goes on here. | 0:48:31 | 0:48:35 | |
It's a card game. | 0:48:35 | 0:48:36 | |
-Cards not included? -No. | 0:48:36 | 0:48:38 | |
-So it's already one thing wrong with it! -Damaged! -Yeah! | 0:48:38 | 0:48:42 | |
-You have little pegs. Pegs not included? -No. | 0:48:42 | 0:48:46 | |
Really, it's kind of a... | 0:48:46 | 0:48:47 | |
-You use it as a scoreboard? -Yeah. | 0:48:47 | 0:48:49 | |
You play the game, you use it as a scoreboard, | 0:48:49 | 0:48:52 | |
you advance the pegs up and down through these little holes. | 0:48:52 | 0:48:55 | |
There are people who collect all this advertising stuff. | 0:48:55 | 0:48:57 | |
I paid £20 for it, and I think it might make you 10 or £15 profit. | 0:48:57 | 0:49:01 | |
No more than that. | 0:49:01 | 0:49:02 | |
-It's a safety net. -Yeah. | 0:49:02 | 0:49:04 | |
I can't see you losing money. | 0:49:04 | 0:49:05 | |
-It's not a safety match. -No. Very good! | 0:49:05 | 0:49:08 | |
I like that! | 0:49:08 | 0:49:09 | |
We'll see if they play it safe later on. | 0:49:09 | 0:49:13 | |
In the meanwhile, let's discuss the Blue team's three items. | 0:49:13 | 0:49:16 | |
Here's a little reminder. | 0:49:16 | 0:49:19 | |
They acquired this pair of lacquer pedestal dishes for £40. | 0:49:19 | 0:49:24 | |
Continuing the theme, they chose an 18th-century blue-and-white plate, | 0:49:25 | 0:49:30 | |
despite its small hairline crack, for a smashing £10. | 0:49:30 | 0:49:34 | |
Finally, they spent a whopping £215 on an Exeter silver fish slice. Wow. | 0:49:35 | 0:49:41 | |
Now, you two naughty ones. | 0:49:43 | 0:49:44 | |
You spent a magnificent £265 and only gave Charles £35. Charles? | 0:49:46 | 0:49:52 | |
Tim, exactly. | 0:49:52 | 0:49:54 | |
We came off the rough-and-tumble edge of a wonderful fish slice | 0:49:54 | 0:49:57 | |
that cost a large sum of money, | 0:49:57 | 0:49:59 | |
so I wanted to dig deep and find a piece of silver that would | 0:49:59 | 0:50:02 | |
just bring us back into the game, | 0:50:02 | 0:50:04 | |
back into making a profit overall. So I found Sylvia. | 0:50:04 | 0:50:08 | |
-Eh? -And here is Sylvia. | 0:50:09 | 0:50:11 | |
Or Sylvia's little vesta case, or match-case sleeve. | 0:50:11 | 0:50:16 | |
From the year 1920. So it's George V, and it's solid silver. | 0:50:16 | 0:50:21 | |
-Feel the weight of that, feel the weight. -That's quite heavy. | 0:50:21 | 0:50:25 | |
And I'm just hoping today in Honiton there might be | 0:50:25 | 0:50:28 | |
Sylvia in the room who's looking for a very nice silver match case. | 0:50:28 | 0:50:33 | |
-Sylvia looking for silver. -Exactly. | 0:50:33 | 0:50:35 | |
-How many people do you know called Sylvia, Charles? -Not many. | 0:50:35 | 0:50:38 | |
It's like Barbara or Margaret - they're slightly outdated names. | 0:50:38 | 0:50:42 | |
Paul, how many people called Sylvia do you know? | 0:50:42 | 0:50:44 | |
A grand scale of no-one. | 0:50:44 | 0:50:47 | |
Lisa, how are you with Sylvia, sweet? | 0:50:47 | 0:50:49 | |
-No-one. -Lovely. | 0:50:49 | 0:50:51 | |
I rest my case. | 0:50:51 | 0:50:52 | |
It's a blast from the past. It has a pedigree. | 0:50:52 | 0:50:54 | |
We can only imagine, who was Sylvia who liked her silver | 0:50:54 | 0:50:58 | |
back in the Roaring Twenties...? | 0:50:58 | 0:51:00 | |
-Did you use all the money? -It cost me 20. | 0:51:00 | 0:51:04 | |
-OK. -I'll be very disappointed if Sylvia doesn't race away | 0:51:04 | 0:51:07 | |
and doesn't make 30 or £35. | 0:51:07 | 0:51:09 | |
-I do like it. I think you've done well. -Thank you very much. | 0:51:09 | 0:51:12 | |
Will there be a Sylvia in the room today? | 0:51:12 | 0:51:15 | |
We'll see before long, as we're about to start selling. | 0:51:15 | 0:51:19 | |
Brian Goodison-Blanks, the auctioneer, | 0:51:19 | 0:51:21 | |
has his gavel in hand, and is ready to sell, sell, sell. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:24 | |
Tom, Paddy, how are you feeling? | 0:51:27 | 0:51:29 | |
-Pretty good. Pretty confident. -Are you? | 0:51:29 | 0:51:32 | |
-Excellent. -As always. | 0:51:32 | 0:51:33 | |
Here comes your chair. | 0:51:33 | 0:51:35 | |
Lot 170 is the rush-seated mini ladder-back chair. | 0:51:35 | 0:51:39 | |
Commission's here with me at eight, ten, 12 - £12 with me. | 0:51:39 | 0:51:44 | |
15. I'm out. | 0:51:44 | 0:51:45 | |
18, behind you, 20, 22, | 0:51:45 | 0:51:48 | |
25, 28. | 0:51:48 | 0:51:51 | |
Can't see you, sir. 28, 30. | 0:51:51 | 0:51:53 | |
£28 in, at the far chair there at 28. | 0:51:53 | 0:51:56 | |
At 30, I'm looking for now. At £28, then... | 0:51:56 | 0:52:00 | |
Liking it. £28 is plus £10. | 0:52:00 | 0:52:02 | |
Thank you very much, Tom. Good pick. | 0:52:02 | 0:52:05 | |
Now, the telescope. | 0:52:05 | 0:52:06 | |
Lot 171 is the spotter four-draw telescope by JH Steward of London. | 0:52:06 | 0:52:12 | |
What am I saying for that? £30? | 0:52:12 | 0:52:14 | |
£20. 20 here. Thank you. At 20, opening bid of 20. | 0:52:15 | 0:52:18 | |
Two now elsewhere? | 0:52:18 | 0:52:21 | |
At £20 - looking for further bids. | 0:52:21 | 0:52:23 | |
22 online. 25? | 0:52:23 | 0:52:25 | |
25 in the room, I have. 28 now online. | 0:52:25 | 0:52:29 | |
I'll take the bid of 30 online. 32, sir? | 0:52:29 | 0:52:33 | |
32 in the room now, I have. 35 online. | 0:52:33 | 0:52:37 | |
£32, bid is in the room. 35, 38. | 0:52:37 | 0:52:41 | |
38 in the room. At 38 in the room. 40 online? | 0:52:41 | 0:52:45 | |
Bid is now 40. 45, sir? Bid is on the internet at £40. | 0:52:45 | 0:52:49 | |
Five I'm looking for elsewhere. Two if you lie. | 0:52:49 | 0:52:51 | |
At £40 - bid is on the internet, then, at 40. | 0:52:51 | 0:52:55 | |
£40. There is a very happy gillie somewhere. | 0:52:56 | 0:52:59 | |
That is minus £10, which means you have nothing at the moment. | 0:52:59 | 0:53:03 | |
Lot 172 is the 19th-century brass and turned-wood salmon gaff. | 0:53:03 | 0:53:09 | |
The salmon gaff there. Nice example. Commission bid here at £55. | 0:53:09 | 0:53:13 | |
60 do I see? | 0:53:13 | 0:53:15 | |
60, five, 70, five, 80? | 0:53:16 | 0:53:19 | |
At £75. Back with me at 75. 80 at all? Quite sure, sir? | 0:53:19 | 0:53:24 | |
At £75 with me, then, all done at 75. | 0:53:24 | 0:53:29 | |
It's not so far off, I have to say, minus £10. | 0:53:29 | 0:53:31 | |
We've gone plus £10, minus £10, minus £10. | 0:53:31 | 0:53:35 | |
Overall, you're minus £10. | 0:53:35 | 0:53:37 | |
This is incredibly bad luck. You're on the cusp of everything. | 0:53:37 | 0:53:40 | |
-So, the cribbage board, then? -Got to go for it. | 0:53:40 | 0:53:43 | |
Got to go for it, haven't you? It's £20. Everything to play for. | 0:53:43 | 0:53:47 | |
Here comes the cribbage board from heaven. | 0:53:47 | 0:53:49 | |
Lot 175 is the England's Glory cribbage board. | 0:53:49 | 0:53:54 | |
Interest here with me at £5. And eight now? At £5 with me. | 0:53:54 | 0:53:59 | |
Something to do on a winter evening. Eight now? | 0:53:59 | 0:54:02 | |
You quite sure, then, at £5 only? | 0:54:02 | 0:54:05 | |
At five, and selling. | 0:54:05 | 0:54:08 | |
Minus 25. Now listen, chaps, that could be a winning score. | 0:54:10 | 0:54:13 | |
Don't say a word to the Blue team. Mum is the word. | 0:54:13 | 0:54:16 | |
No point in ruining their day. | 0:54:16 | 0:54:19 | |
We might tempt them into an even bigger loss. | 0:54:19 | 0:54:21 | |
-How you feeling? -Nervous. | 0:54:26 | 0:54:28 | |
-What about you, Lise? -Yeah, nervous, I think. | 0:54:28 | 0:54:32 | |
First up are the lacquer dishes. Here they come. | 0:54:32 | 0:54:35 | |
Lot 190 is the pair of Japanese lacquer dishes. Circa 1900. | 0:54:35 | 0:54:40 | |
£30? | 0:54:40 | 0:54:44 | |
-30 do I see? -Let's move. | 0:54:44 | 0:54:45 | |
20 do I see? | 0:54:45 | 0:54:47 | |
£10 at all? Ten, thank you, sir. 12 now? | 0:54:47 | 0:54:50 | |
At £10, open bid. 12 at all? It's a pair. | 0:54:50 | 0:54:54 | |
At £10, then. £10 only. | 0:54:54 | 0:54:56 | |
-Oh, dear. £10, that's not good. -His guide price was a lot more. | 0:54:58 | 0:55:02 | |
£10 is minus 30. | 0:55:02 | 0:55:04 | |
I'm not liking the look of this. Now your plate, Charles. | 0:55:04 | 0:55:07 | |
Blue-and-white plate. Qianlong Dynasty. | 0:55:07 | 0:55:09 | |
It is damaged, but what will I say for that, £30? | 0:55:09 | 0:55:13 | |
30? 20? Ten? | 0:55:14 | 0:55:19 | |
-Five? -Oh, dear. | 0:55:19 | 0:55:20 | |
Five, thank you, sir. At £5, and eight now? £5 only. | 0:55:20 | 0:55:25 | |
Eight, do I see? At £5... | 0:55:25 | 0:55:26 | |
Eight, thank you, sir. Ten? | 0:55:26 | 0:55:28 | |
-Nine I'll take. -Why not? | 0:55:29 | 0:55:31 | |
Ten? Ten - let's do it the easy way. | 0:55:31 | 0:55:33 | |
-At £10, then. -10.25! | 0:55:33 | 0:55:37 | |
£10 only. Quite sure, then? | 0:55:37 | 0:55:41 | |
At ten. | 0:55:41 | 0:55:42 | |
Disappointing, isn't it? Sorry, team. | 0:55:42 | 0:55:46 | |
That's £10, then. Now the fish slice. | 0:55:46 | 0:55:49 | |
The Exeter silver fish slice from George Turner. Circa 1830. | 0:55:49 | 0:55:55 | |
Interest here with me at 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130... | 0:55:55 | 0:56:01 | |
130, I have. 140 now? | 0:56:01 | 0:56:04 | |
-At £130... -Keep going. | 0:56:04 | 0:56:06 | |
140 at all? | 0:56:07 | 0:56:08 | |
£130 for the fish slice. | 0:56:08 | 0:56:12 | |
140 now? £130, then. | 0:56:12 | 0:56:15 | |
130 is 70 - minus 85. Minus 85 plus 30 is 115. Minus 115. | 0:56:16 | 0:56:23 | |
What are we going to do about the match case? | 0:56:23 | 0:56:26 | |
I think we're going to have to go with Sylvia. | 0:56:26 | 0:56:28 | |
-I think we bring it on... -Take it on the chin. | 0:56:28 | 0:56:31 | |
-Take it on. Walk tall. -Yeah. We trust it. | 0:56:31 | 0:56:35 | |
Ready? Here it comes. | 0:56:35 | 0:56:38 | |
The silver match case, engraved "Sylvia". | 0:56:38 | 0:56:42 | |
Interest here with me at ten. | 0:56:42 | 0:56:44 | |
12, 15. At £15, I have. 18 now? | 0:56:44 | 0:56:48 | |
At £15. 18 at all? | 0:56:48 | 0:56:51 | |
-18, 20, 22, 25, 28... -Well done, Charles. | 0:56:51 | 0:56:55 | |
-We've made a small profit. -28 now? | 0:56:55 | 0:56:57 | |
£25 here, £25. | 0:56:57 | 0:57:01 | |
£25. Well done, Charles. That's a £5 profit. | 0:57:01 | 0:57:05 | |
-I'm sorry, team. -Overall, you are minus 110. | 0:57:05 | 0:57:09 | |
Don't say a word to the Reds. | 0:57:09 | 0:57:10 | |
Dear, oh, dear, oh, dear. | 0:57:15 | 0:57:17 | |
Some days it's good days, and some days it's bad days. | 0:57:17 | 0:57:20 | |
For some of us around here, today's a particularly bad day. | 0:57:20 | 0:57:24 | |
Nobody is going home with profits. | 0:57:24 | 0:57:26 | |
One team, however, is going home with a massive loss, | 0:57:26 | 0:57:28 | |
and that team are the Blues. | 0:57:28 | 0:57:30 | |
I'm really sorry about this. Minus £110 is not so hot. | 0:57:30 | 0:57:36 | |
-No. -No. -No. | 0:57:36 | 0:57:38 | |
It's all down to the fish slice - we're off fish slices, aren't we? | 0:57:38 | 0:57:42 | |
-And fish. -And fish all round. | 0:57:42 | 0:57:44 | |
You've been brilliant about it, I have to say. I shan't ask you to sing again, don't worry. | 0:57:44 | 0:57:48 | |
-Have you had a good time? -Yes, thank you. | 0:57:48 | 0:57:52 | |
We've loved having you on the show. | 0:57:52 | 0:57:53 | |
The victors today, who win by only losing £25, are the brothers. | 0:57:53 | 0:57:58 | |
Well done, Tom. Well done, Paddy. | 0:57:58 | 0:58:00 | |
Happy about that? | 0:58:00 | 0:58:01 | |
It didn't really feel as if it ought to come out like that for you today. | 0:58:01 | 0:58:05 | |
You started off with a £10 profit. | 0:58:05 | 0:58:07 | |
Then you had these silly little £10 losses that could have | 0:58:07 | 0:58:10 | |
easily gone the other way. That crib board wasn't right either. | 0:58:10 | 0:58:13 | |
All round, I'd say it's bad luck. | 0:58:13 | 0:58:15 | |
-I feel you should have gone home with some cash. -Yeah, well... | 0:58:15 | 0:58:18 | |
But it's the next best thing to win. Congratulations. | 0:58:18 | 0:58:20 | |
It's been such fun, | 0:58:20 | 0:58:22 | |
join us soon for some more bargain hunting. Yes? Yes! | 0:58:22 | 0:58:26 |
