0:00:02 > 0:00:06It's dawn here, at the antiques fair at Wetherby Racecourse in Yorkshire.
0:00:07 > 0:00:11The dealers prep their pitches, ready for the long day ahead.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20Crowds come from far and wide.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23Deals to be done and bargains to be found.
0:00:24 > 0:00:26The scene is set,
0:00:26 > 0:00:28the teams are chomping at the bit,
0:00:28 > 0:00:31so let's go bargain hunting!
0:00:57 > 0:01:00There are just so many stalls here today.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Our teams certainly will have their work cut out,
0:01:03 > 0:01:05but the going is good,
0:01:05 > 0:01:07so let's get going!
0:01:07 > 0:01:08Here's what's coming up.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14- Shopping comes so naturally to the Reds...- That's a nice-shaped kettle.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17- ..it's like riding a bike. - Do a bunny hop!
0:01:19 > 0:01:22And the Blues just get carried away...
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- It's blue!- Yeah, blue team! - It's blue!
0:01:24 > 0:01:28..and there are highs and lows at auction.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Aw, £20.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31Oh, I don't believe it.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Yes!
0:01:32 > 0:01:35- Profit - that's good. - All done and finished.
0:01:35 > 0:01:40That's all coming up later but, first, let's meet our lovely teams.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42- Hello, everyone.- Hello there, Anita.
0:01:42 > 0:01:46Oh, it's lovely to have you here. It's lovely to have you here.
0:01:46 > 0:01:51Now, for the Reds, we have best buddies Ben and Tom.
0:01:51 > 0:01:55And, for the Blues, we have the beautiful blonde sisters
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Diane and Liz.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59- Welcome, folks, welcome.- Thank you.
0:01:59 > 0:02:05Now, Tom, it's a bit of an unusual story about how you two guys met.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08Very unusual. Well, we were in town, just in a group,
0:02:08 > 0:02:10doing what we do on the weekend, having a few drinks,
0:02:10 > 0:02:14watching the football and going from pub to pub.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17I had a little bit of an accident and got run over by a bus.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18LAUGHTER
0:02:18 > 0:02:20You got run over by a bus?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Yeah, not badly, not badly, just a slight incident,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25but Ben was there to my rescue.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28So, did that mean that you were bonded for eternity?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31Oh, yeah, I've been stuck with him ever since.
0:02:31 > 0:02:35And now, I hear that sports, and I don't mean Saturday night sports,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37but sport plays a big part in your life.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- Tell me about that. - Yeah, a massive part.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42- I've been coaching football since I was 17.- You're an athlete?!
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Well, I wouldn't go that far. I can stand and shout.
0:02:45 > 0:02:46LAUGHTER
0:02:46 > 0:02:49But, yeah, I've been coaching sports since I was 17.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Set up my own business, going into private schools,
0:02:51 > 0:02:53coaching sport, and now I coach
0:02:53 > 0:02:55at a professional football club as well.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Well, that sounds a bit more responsible
0:02:58 > 0:03:01than your Saturday night frolics and bumping into buses.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04That was just the one off, that was just the one off.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Now, Ben, I believe you're into sport as well.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- Tell me a bit about that.- I am, I am. So, I'm passionate about boxing.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- Boxing is one of my...- Boxing! - Are you a bit of a boxer yourself,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16- are you, Anita?- Oh, I don't know, but what did you think of that?
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- I'm a bit of a dancer.- You nearly had Tom's chin off, there.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20LAUGHTER
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I'm not a great boxer, I've done it for charity.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26Is it not a bit nerve-racking and scary when you come out
0:03:26 > 0:03:29- and the crowds cheer?- It is.
0:03:29 > 0:03:30There's no-one there watching.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31LAUGHTER
0:03:31 > 0:03:33There's only about six people.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35It was just my mom in the background.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Your mom in the background? LAUGHTER
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Going, "Don't hit him! He's too handsome!"
0:03:39 > 0:03:43All right. Are there going to be any fights out there today?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45What are your tactics, boys?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48I think we'll be quite diplomatic. I mean, Tom's got an eye for...
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- Kettles.- ..for kettles.- Kettles? - He collects kettles.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I like a good brew, Anita. I like a good brew.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55Well, guys, I'm sure you'll do very, very well out there today.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57- Hopefully.- Thank you, Anita.
0:03:57 > 0:04:03But, now, we turn to the beautiful and glamorous blondie Blues.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07Now, Diane, you used to work in the NHS for many years,
0:04:07 > 0:04:09but I believe that you've changed jobs now.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Tell us a wee bit about it.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Yeah, I've got a little prom dress shop.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15We sell lots of things - prom dresses,
0:04:15 > 0:04:18cruisewear evening dresses, nice scarves.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20So, do all these lovely wee girls come in?
0:04:20 > 0:04:23They're all excited, they're going to the prom,
0:04:23 > 0:04:27- and you help them to become even more beautiful.- That's right.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- I also work for Miss England. - Miss England?!- Yeah.- Miss England!
0:04:31 > 0:04:36I organise all of the heats from York, Scarborough, Middlesbrough,
0:04:36 > 0:04:38and, whoever wins, I get that girl ready
0:04:38 > 0:04:41and take them to the Miss England final.
0:04:41 > 0:04:44So, Liz, do you help your sister out?
0:04:44 > 0:04:45What do you do for a living?
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Well, I'm a nurse by profession,
0:04:48 > 0:04:52but I also run the injury minimisation programme for schools.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56We teach over 1,000 children a year how to do basic life support,
0:04:56 > 0:04:58first aid and how to stop accidents happening.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01It's very, very, very important.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Not as glamorous as Diane's job but it is fun.
0:05:03 > 0:05:04What do you do in your spare time?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06My husband and I like ballroom dancing.
0:05:06 > 0:05:11So, yeah, well, I love it and he comes along just to keep me happy.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Do you get your dresses off your sister?
0:05:13 > 0:05:19- Does she allow you...?- Yes, I had a ball for my 50th birthday
0:05:19 > 0:05:21and my sister provided the dress, and we had a lovely time.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Did you have to give it back?
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- No, no, she let me keep it. - I just remembered, actually.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28LAUGHTER
0:05:28 > 0:05:30What will be your tactics today?
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Will there be any sibling rivalry?
0:05:33 > 0:05:37- Oh, no. No, no, no.- No. - We're a team, so, there,
0:05:37 > 0:05:38and we're here to win.
0:05:38 > 0:05:39LAUGHTER
0:05:39 > 0:05:43OK, guys, now we come for the money moment.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45- £300.- Thank you very much.
0:05:45 > 0:05:46- £300.- Thank you.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50Your experts await and off you go.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57And, of course, our two terrific teams need two exuberant experts.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Giving the Reds a little helping hand, it's Kate Bliss.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04And the Blues have just the ticket,
0:06:04 > 0:06:05it's Charles Hanson.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09What are you going to be looking for?
0:06:09 > 0:06:11I think something quite...
0:06:11 > 0:06:13I don't know, something quite active,
0:06:13 > 0:06:15something to keep us, you know, entertained.
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Silver, sparkly, maybe a little pincushion.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Something to do with cats, or something to do with cups of tea.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Something that will keep you warm, I think.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27Spend as little as we can, probably get something like Art Deco,
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- something sparkly would be nice. - Yeah, well, thanks for coming.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33OK, teams, 60 minutes, your time starts now.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34CAR HONKING
0:06:34 > 0:06:35Let's go!
0:06:35 > 0:06:38I know just the place, follow me.
0:06:38 > 0:06:42Well, that shopping list should keep you busy for the next hour.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44If it takes your fancy, talk to me.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47See, straight away, I'm thinking bikes.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51And, true to their word, it's something sporting for the boys.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52We've got one each here, Kate.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54That one looks... Yeah, we have, haven't we?
0:06:54 > 0:06:57- We've got three, one each.- We could be speeding around this fair.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00That one looks a bit more modern to me. I'm liking the look of this one.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02The other two haven't got it,
0:07:02 > 0:07:04but you've got a name on the front of this one.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07And you've got Gazelle, which is probably the model,
0:07:07 > 0:07:09and Ruviel Fabriek.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12Now, I think it might be Dutch
0:07:12 > 0:07:16because "Fabriek" with an "E" is "factory" in Holland.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Obviously, it's a bit rusty in places.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21We're missing the light and the reflector on the back there.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23That seat may well be a replacement seat, I think.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25That looks like a modern seat to me.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Where would you see this, though? Would you see it in the front of like an old cafe shop?
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Like an old French cafe shop?
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Well, there is that.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35There's using it as an interior designer's piece,
0:07:35 > 0:07:36as a decorator's piece.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40It's quite difficult to tell the age of it, it's definitely post-war.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42I think it could be '60s.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Why do you like this particularly?
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Well, we wanted something which was a bit action, a bit moving, so...
0:07:48 > 0:07:50you know, Tom's always had his heart on a new bike as well.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53Definitely keep us entertained, this, I think.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Do you think it would go well at the auction though?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- This is the thing.- Yeah, of course. - It depends on the price.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01I'll go and have a word.
0:08:01 > 0:08:05Go on, Kate, let's get the wheeling and dealing under way.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09Back to the Blues, who've spotted wheels of a different nature.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12- Why do you like it?- Well, it looks old, it looks vintage, doesn't it?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14You know, you can imagine a little girl
0:08:14 > 0:08:16all dressed up in the olden days.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18They're calling it a 1930s pram,
0:08:18 > 0:08:21and it certainly has that Art Deco feel about it,
0:08:21 > 0:08:23and we all know style is everything
0:08:23 > 0:08:27when it comes to collectors' items.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31Priced at £75, what's it worth at auction?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34What would you pay for it, Diane?
0:08:34 > 0:08:35100.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38I'll tell you what, we're in a wealthy part of North Yorkshire.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39LAUGHTER
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Crikey. How the other half live down here.
0:08:41 > 0:08:45- A bit pricey, that.- Well spotted, I like your style.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47I'm going to take that as a no, Charles.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50The Reds are still considering that bike
0:08:50 > 0:08:53and Tom is doing a spot of try before you buy.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55- Do a bunny hop! - Where are the brakes?
0:08:55 > 0:08:57So, the all-important question, Kate.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01With the bike marked up at £80, what's the best price?
0:09:02 > 0:09:05The death is 45.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- Yeah, we'll have that. - Definitely have that.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09- 45?- Did you say 45 quid?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Yeah, I think it's a bit of a gamble, fellas,
0:09:11 > 0:09:13but you've got a name on it.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15It's not in bad nick.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- 45 quid? Yeah, we'll get that.- I'm not going to talk you out of it.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20I can see you two have made your mind up.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23I'm pretty irrelevant here, aren't I? I'll just go and do the deal, OK?
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Yeah, a bit happy with that. How did it ride? It looked like a dream.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Yeah, it's a little bit shaky but...
0:09:27 > 0:09:29I thought that was you, to be honest.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Crikey, those two aren't hanging about.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36Five minutes in, lads, good work.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- They're quite nice, aren't they? - Yea, they are, yeah.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Hold tight, hold tight. - LAUGHTER
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Yah!
0:09:42 > 0:09:44- They're quite neat, aren't they? - Yeah.- They are.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46They look to be a nice, almost Cotswold stone.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47- Yes.- That's right, yes.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51They probably are no more than 30 years old, but they're decorative.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54You can imagine them outside a nice big house, couldn't you?
0:09:54 > 0:09:55You know, on each pillar.
0:09:55 > 0:10:00Definitely. I can see that pair welcoming you to the Hanson house.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02They're cheap at 160, but we might not recover.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- No, no.- That's right, that's right.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06- We might fall off the horse.- OK.- OK.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09TOUNGE CLICKING Trot on.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Are you still set on finding your kettle?
0:10:11 > 0:10:14Yeah, I think so, yeah. Yeah, definitely need a kettle.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Oh, and as if by magic...
0:10:16 > 0:10:19- What's the thing with kettles, then?- I just like kettles. I like a good brew.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Do you like them because you like tea? You like a good brew.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25- I like tea, yeah, I love tea.- Yeah, that's why I make him cups of tea.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27It's copper, it's got a turned wooden handle.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30It's a lovely object, but how commercial is it?
0:10:31 > 0:10:34Not hugely. It's quite a niche market.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36£12 you've got on there.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39I think probably, at auction, that's about the right price.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Maybe we could look for another one.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45I think our Tom is a bit of a kettle connoisseur.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Right, teams, you're 20 minutes in.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51What's this, here?
0:10:51 > 0:10:52- Hello, sir.- Hello.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54What can I help you with?
0:10:54 > 0:10:56We're just wondering what this was, here, with the...
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Are they lorgnettes, or...no?
0:10:58 > 0:11:01I'll explain it to you.
0:11:01 > 0:11:02They fold down like that
0:11:02 > 0:11:06and they're military campaign pieces for officers.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10So, you have the binoculars, to look at the enemy,
0:11:10 > 0:11:14and then you have the compass, to let you know where you are,
0:11:14 > 0:11:18and then you have the mirror, for signalling.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Pretty useful bit of kit.- That's very nice.- Sir, how early is that?
0:11:21 > 0:11:25Well, I think it's World War II, actually,
0:11:25 > 0:11:28or possibly a little bit earlier.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30What an amazing object.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- It's unusual. - It's almost ingenious.- Yeah.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Yeah, and so neat having it all together, isn't it, like that?
0:11:35 > 0:11:39It's a base metal, so it's bronzed with a coating.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42It's actually marked Germany on the cover.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45I've never seen one before, so it's almost, to me,
0:11:45 > 0:11:47an education, which is always great in this business,
0:11:47 > 0:11:49you never stop learning.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51How much have you got on this, please?
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Just a casual 115.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57- I can probably shave quite a bit off that for you.- Yeah.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Would you take 60 for it?
0:11:59 > 0:12:00That's a definite no.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Sorry to be insulting, but I can't.
0:12:03 > 0:12:07I think the best I could do would be...85.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10We need to make a profit, don't we?
0:12:10 > 0:12:15I think we'd feel more comfortable at 75, wouldn't we? 75?
0:12:16 > 0:12:18- Only because you're blondes. - LAUGHTER
0:12:18 > 0:12:20Ah, you charmer, you.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- We'll take that.- Shake his hand. - Thank you very much.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Definitely one of the more unusual buys.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Whilst the teams are shopping,
0:12:27 > 0:12:31let's take a wee look at this quirky beastie I found.
0:12:38 > 0:12:43What could get weirder than this little object?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48It shows a frog climbing up a bendy ladder,
0:12:48 > 0:12:52to graze on the bristles of a hairy mushroom,
0:12:52 > 0:12:58and being spied upon by a wee exotic insect.
0:12:58 > 0:12:59It is made of spelter,
0:12:59 > 0:13:01painted in naturalistic colours,
0:13:01 > 0:13:04and it's probably Austrian.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08But what is it? What is it for?
0:13:08 > 0:13:11It's a nib brush.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Before ballpoint, and indeed fountain pens were invented,
0:13:15 > 0:13:18a dip pen would be used for writing.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22And to avoid making blots in the paper,
0:13:22 > 0:13:27the writer would draw the nib across the brush to clear it.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30It dates from the late 19th century
0:13:30 > 0:13:34and keys into anthropomorphism,
0:13:34 > 0:13:37which was popular at that time.
0:13:37 > 0:13:42Anthropomorphism is where we give animals
0:13:42 > 0:13:45human traits or characteristics
0:13:45 > 0:13:50and so the frog becomes Mr Frog,
0:13:50 > 0:13:52climbing up a set of ladders,
0:13:52 > 0:13:54just like a human being.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58In today's world of hi-tech pens,
0:13:58 > 0:14:01e-mails and text messages,
0:14:01 > 0:14:04a nib brush would have no useful purpose,
0:14:04 > 0:14:08but this little object has humour.
0:14:08 > 0:14:11It has novelty value.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15I paid £150 for this little object,
0:14:15 > 0:14:18and that is probably just about all the money,
0:14:18 > 0:14:21but I couldn't resist it.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23It made me smile
0:14:23 > 0:14:26and when will I see another one?
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Let's hop back to the shopping.
0:14:36 > 0:14:4025 minutes in, teams, and it's one item apiece.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42- It's blue.- Yeah! Blue team. - It's blue!
0:14:42 > 0:14:49It's a bobbin turned corner armchair in style of 1680.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52But, in fact, it's a chair that probably dates to
0:14:52 > 0:14:55more like 1910, 1920.
0:14:55 > 0:14:58- It's gorgeous, isn't it?- Yeah. - How much is it?- 60.
0:14:58 > 0:15:03At auction, it could make £20, it could make £70.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06I think that's called keeping your options open, Charles.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- Do you want to move on and have another little look?- Yeah.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10- I think we'll move on.- Are you sure?
0:15:10 > 0:15:13- Yes.- I love how you can get on so well together, sisters.
0:15:13 > 0:15:15- You're the best sisters. - LAUGHER
0:15:15 > 0:15:18Sit tight, team. I'm sure something will crop up.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- Let's rub this belly for good luck. - For good luck.- Good luck.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24- The blue Bubba. - Come on, the Blues!
0:15:24 > 0:15:27- May the force be with us, come on. - LAUGHTER
0:15:27 > 0:15:30No chance of things going belly up for the Blues
0:15:30 > 0:15:33and Kate is on the case for the Reds.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Oh, very nice.
0:15:36 > 0:15:37It's called a Gladstone bag.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Now, I think these are a great design.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41Sometimes they're called doctor's bags
0:15:41 > 0:15:44because they don't look that bulky from the outside,
0:15:44 > 0:15:47but open it up and, because it's got this frame,
0:15:47 > 0:15:52it extends to a really wide opening.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55But they're called Gladstone bags because the chap...
0:15:55 > 0:15:59- Is that William Gladstone?- It's after Gladstone, the Prime Minister.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01Because the guy who patented it,
0:16:01 > 0:16:02this particular design,
0:16:02 > 0:16:04was a real fan of Gladstone.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06He really admired him as a Prime Minister,
0:16:06 > 0:16:07who also travelled a lot,
0:16:07 > 0:16:11so it made sense to name sort of luggage after him.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15It's also best to check it out in the daylight.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18And you can see it's in really nice condition.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20The seams are all good, the handle is original,
0:16:20 > 0:16:22which is really important.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25And you've got these chrome mounts, which makes me think it's '50s.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- Right, OK.- So, it's in quite good condition, isn't it,
0:16:27 > 0:16:29for seeing how old it actually is?
0:16:29 > 0:16:34We've got 55 on there. I think, at auction, 25-40 would be my estimate.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Why don't you go and have a word, Ben?
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Do you know what? I'd really like to go and have a word. I'll take it.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40- Come on.- Go for it.- Go on, Ben.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43I have a feeling Mr Ben may have the gift of the gab
0:16:43 > 0:16:45when it comes to sealing a deal.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Right, back to the Blues.
0:16:47 > 0:16:48Into the warmth.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51Oh, that's nice.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54- Oh, wow, lots in here! - Let's go straight on.
0:16:57 > 0:16:59Go green, eh?
0:16:59 > 0:17:02Go green, look at that.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04OK, Ben, how did you get on?
0:17:04 > 0:17:08- We can get it for 48 quid. - £48?- £48.- So, what do you reckon?
0:17:08 > 0:17:10- I think that goes well with the bike, mate.- Do you reckon?
0:17:10 > 0:17:12I'd definitely go for that, yeah.
0:17:12 > 0:17:13Yeah, a man bag.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15- Very good. You like it, don't you? - I love it.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18- Go on, then, Ben. Go do your stuff. - Good man.- Great. Do you like it?
0:17:18 > 0:17:21Yeah, yeah, I think it might do well. It might do well, yeah.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24- And if it doesn't, it's Ben's fault.- Exactly.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25LAUGHTER
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Ha, ha, that's the spirit, Tom.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29So, Kate, how are the guys getting on?
0:17:29 > 0:17:33We've got two great items, we're just over halfway through.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35I think we are sitting pretty,
0:17:35 > 0:17:38but, of course, it could all go horribly wrong.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42And we've seen that many times, Kate.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44Back to the Blues.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- Isn't that nice?- It's different. - It's a lovely little vesta case,
0:17:47 > 0:17:49or a vesta stand, for your matches.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52So, if you are having a fire one night, on your mantelpiece,
0:17:52 > 0:17:55you might lift your lid, get your match out.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57- It works, also?- Yes.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59May I try it? Look at that.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03They're safety matches, Charles.
0:18:03 > 0:18:04Charles!
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- Safety matches. - LAUGHTER
0:18:06 > 0:18:08There you go.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12It's a little saucepan, with a lid,
0:18:12 > 0:18:14sweet little tureen handle.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Must date to around, what, 1910, 1900?
0:18:17 > 0:18:19- What have we got on it?- £70.
0:18:19 > 0:18:23I don't think there's a lot in it, do you?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26No, I mean, even if it came to auction with me,
0:18:26 > 0:18:29I would guide it between 50 and 70.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31So, it's got to go...
0:18:31 > 0:18:34It's a good retail price, but maybe a bit too much for ours,
0:18:34 > 0:18:36but a nice object to mental note, OK? I'll put it back.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38- We know where it is.- Thank you, sir.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40For the time being, we'll say thanks.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43So, the pan is one for the back burner.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Are you seeing anything around here?
0:18:47 > 0:18:51- What about those old doors? - You don't reckon?- No.- OK.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54- Sorry.- Not liking your reaction there, Kate.- Not liking those.- No.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Definitely a limited market there, Ben.
0:18:58 > 0:18:5915 minutes to go.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Let's find two objects.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04You took the words right out of my mouth, Charles.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07Come on, girls. How about this for a drop in the ocean?
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Look at that.
0:19:10 > 0:19:11Isn't that gorgeous?
0:19:11 > 0:19:13And that's mother of pearl?
0:19:13 > 0:19:14I think it's a mussel of some sort.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Like a mussel shell, isn't it?
0:19:16 > 0:19:18It's very gay Paris.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Liz, is it doing it for you?
0:19:20 > 0:19:21It's nice.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24I like the fact that it's still got the lining.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Yeah, the original lining.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- That's the original, almost blue Morocco lining, and...- Blue again.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Absolutely.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34..divisions. What I like about it is it's so tactile as well,
0:19:34 > 0:19:38and the actual shell hasn't been split.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39I do like, almost,
0:19:39 > 0:19:41it's what you might call
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Renaissance-style strap work of the clasp.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48So, age-wise, it's probably 1900, 1890.
0:19:48 > 0:19:53Late Victorian... It's very elegant, very sophisticated. How much is it?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55I think it's got £40 on it.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56What would be your best price?
0:19:56 > 0:19:59The very best I could do for you would be 30.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Are you sure you won't take 25?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04One more pound off it, 29.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06I like your style.
0:20:06 > 0:20:0827 and we've got a deal.
0:20:08 > 0:20:1028 and we've got a deal. LAUGHTER
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- Happy?- Yes.- Let's do the deal.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Sister act, shake his hand.
0:20:14 > 0:20:19And the deal is sealed. That's your second item, Blues. One to go.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Right, Charles, how are they doing?
0:20:21 > 0:20:23They very much are spending well,
0:20:23 > 0:20:27but I really want to see a big spend in one big finale.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Oh, very exciting.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32You have £197 left in your budget.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35Do me proud, Charles.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Now, look what Tom has found.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Now, that's a nice-shaped kettle.
0:20:39 > 0:20:42I do like that one. It's been through the wars a bit, hasn't it?
0:20:42 > 0:20:44Yeah, it's got a few dents in it, hasn't it?
0:20:44 > 0:20:46But that is definitely Victorian. Isn't that a lovely shape?
0:20:46 > 0:20:49- Yeah, it is.- And, of course, flat bottom to maximise
0:20:49 > 0:20:53the amount of heat you can get on it, made for sitting on a stove.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58I love the way the handle is riveted on there, do you see?
0:20:58 > 0:21:01We're talking about 1880 in date, probably.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04So what do you think of it, Tom? This is your area.
0:21:04 > 0:21:05I quite like it.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08I think it's... like you say, Kate, it's a nice shape.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10It's unfortunate about the few dents on it,
0:21:10 > 0:21:12but, you know, with it being that old
0:21:12 > 0:21:13I think you'd expect a few dents.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16I like it, guys, but I am concerned about this price
0:21:16 > 0:21:20because I think, at 48, you're not going to make a profit, basically.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24- Could you do anything for us at all? - I could come down a little.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27- Could you?- I think the death would be 35.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29I think that's a fair price.
0:21:29 > 0:21:311880s, £35.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Yeah, I mean, you know your kettles, mate.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35Yea, I think we've had a good wander around now
0:21:35 > 0:21:37and I've not seen any better kettles than that one.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Are we going to do it?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41- We probably ought to make a decision.- Get the kettle, come on.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- Come on, let's do it.- Yeah, go on, we're having the kettle.
0:21:44 > 0:21:45- Thank you very much.- You're welcome.
0:21:45 > 0:21:50That's it. All three items bought, a very successful shop.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Now, come on, Blues.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53One item still to buy
0:21:53 > 0:21:56and you only have a few minutes left.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Although it's 125 in the retail market here,
0:21:59 > 0:22:01its auction value might only be £50.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03- BOTH:- Yeah.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Best that goes back then, eh?
0:22:05 > 0:22:07Come on, we have, literally, three minutes.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10That's not long.
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Do you like that?
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- Not really. - LAUGHTER
0:22:13 > 0:22:16Come on, team, we need a decision.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19- The copper Vesta pot, we're going for.- Where's that?- Down there.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- The Vesta pot was £70, wasn't it? - Yeah,- yeah.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24- It would need to be about 40 to give us a chance.- Yeah.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27- Let's try the pot.- OK. - Go on, then, quickly. Quick.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29- Cheerio! - LAUGHTER
0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Hello, again.- Hello.- Can we have another look at the...?
0:22:35 > 0:22:36You certainly can.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38We've literally got a minute left.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40600 quid, then.
0:22:40 > 0:22:41LAUGHTER
0:22:41 > 0:22:44So, you've got £70 on it.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- Would you do it for 40? - I really can't do it for 40, sorry.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49Oh, now you're in trouble.
0:22:49 > 0:22:5130 seconds!
0:22:51 > 0:22:5345?
0:22:53 > 0:22:5445, OK, then.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57- You will?- Yeah.- Yeah, happy? Happy? - Are you happy, sir?- Are you happy?
0:22:57 > 0:22:59- Well, a little bit.- Look at me.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Charles, you always make me happy.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03- ALL:- Aw!
0:23:03 > 0:23:05- Give him a handshake.- Thank you. - That's it.
0:23:05 > 0:23:08- Thank you, thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:23:08 > 0:23:09HORN HONKS
0:23:09 > 0:23:10Time's up, teams.
0:23:10 > 0:23:11The hour is up.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15Dare I say, sisters, lock arms and give me a jig for joy.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18- ALL:- Woo!- There we are. - LAUGHTER
0:23:18 > 0:23:22Right, time to skip off and remind ourselves what the Reds bought.
0:23:22 > 0:23:28Putting the wheels in motion, the Gazelle bike was £45.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32Next up, Ben put his case forward for the bag.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34They paid £48.
0:23:34 > 0:23:39And finally, it all boiled down to the copper kettle.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41It cost them £35.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45- Boys, did you have a great time? - Yep. Brilliant time. - Oh, belting, yeah.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48- You enjoyed it?- Yep, really good. - A wee bit of vintage.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52- Yeah, it was.- I think that was our theme, in the end, wasn't it?
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Not on purpose, that's just the way it happened.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55We didn't set out for vintage,
0:23:55 > 0:23:58but Kate told us that it sells well, so...
0:23:58 > 0:24:00Oh, did I?! Oh!
0:24:00 > 0:24:02And some favourite items, there?
0:24:02 > 0:24:05- I think I'm going to have to say the kettle, aren't I?- Oh, no!
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Yeah, managed to find one, eventually. It's the last one that we got.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11- What about you? What's your favourite? - Mine was my bag, my Gladstone bag.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14What's going to make the most profit?
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Well, at first we thought the bike,
0:24:17 > 0:24:19but we think we shouldn't have bought that now.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22Having second thoughts about the bike,
0:24:22 > 0:24:25but I reckon it's Tom's kettle, cos he loves it.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- How much did you spend, boys? - We spent £128.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30That's a respectable amount,
0:24:30 > 0:24:36- so what I'd like you to give me is £172...- OK.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38..which I will hand over to marvellous Kate.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Have you any idea what you're going to buy for these boys?
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Do you know? I'd really like to get them something sporting
0:24:45 > 0:24:47because they're such sporting fellows.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49And we haven't got anything sporting, have we?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- I suppose the bike could be. - OK, Kate,
0:24:51 > 0:24:56have fun with it and we'll check out what the Blues bought.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58First up, they found their way to a deal
0:24:58 > 0:25:01of £75 for the combination compass.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06Next, the little shell purse set them back £28.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09And it panned out well in the end -
0:25:09 > 0:25:13the Vesta case cost them £45.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Well, my sparkly girls, did you have a lovely time?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17- We did, it was fun. Yeah.- Yeah.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19Well, what was your favourite item?
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- I like the little copper pan.- Oh, that's nice, uh-huh.- Really cute.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26- What about you?- A little Parisian purse that's made out of a shell.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28But what's going to make the biggest profit?
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- We think...- The compass. - ..the military spy glass.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33- Right.- How much money did you spend?
0:25:33 > 0:25:35148.
0:25:35 > 0:25:40- Give me your leftover lolly, then. - Here we are.- That leaves us £152...
0:25:40 > 0:25:43- That's right. - ..to pass over to Charlie.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45That's bags and bags of dosh.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48It's quite frightening. I'm a humble man from Derbyshire.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51It's now time to impress my Yorkshire lasses
0:25:51 > 0:25:55with maybe a sparkly...or two.
0:25:55 > 0:25:56Off you go, Charlie.
0:25:56 > 0:26:01And it's our turn now to toddle off to the auction.
0:26:03 > 0:26:07I've travelled north, to Thomas Watson sale room in Darlington,
0:26:07 > 0:26:11and I've been joined by auctioneer David Elstob.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14- Hi, Anita.- It's lovely to be here, David.- Welcome.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Well, let's have a look at our Red items.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22Now, what do you think of that old bike?
0:26:22 > 0:26:25It's a Gazelle from the Netherlands.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28It's vintage, these things are very fashionable now.
0:26:28 > 0:26:32I can see one of our local residents going away with that after the sale, I think.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36I think it's an absolutely super thing. I think it's lovely.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38What's your estimate on that?
0:26:38 > 0:26:42- Our estimate is £70 to £100. - Well, that is absolutely wonderful.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44They only paid £45,
0:26:44 > 0:26:48so they could make a good profit on that item.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51What about the vintage Gladstone bag?
0:26:51 > 0:26:54I think vintage may be stretching it slightly.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56It doesn't have a great deal going for it, I'm afraid to say.
0:26:56 > 0:27:01All right. We do get people looking for them, so fingers crossed.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05The market loves luggage today,
0:27:05 > 0:27:10and handbags for ladies can be quite a big, pricey item,
0:27:10 > 0:27:13and this perhaps could be used by a lady.
0:27:13 > 0:27:15What's your estimate on that one?
0:27:15 > 0:27:18- £10 to £20. - SHE EXHALES DEEPLY
0:27:18 > 0:27:23- They paid 48.- All right. - And that was Ben's favourite item.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27Now, what about the Victorian copper kettle?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29It's traditional fair, isn't it?
0:27:29 > 0:27:31It is very much so.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33The only problem is, with the copper kettles,
0:27:33 > 0:27:36people don't like cleaning them any more, I'm afraid.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40We have estimated it modestly, so I think it will get away.
0:27:40 > 0:27:45- And the estimate?- £10 to 20.- Yeah, well, they paid £35 for it
0:27:45 > 0:27:49and they both thought this one is the one that would make most profit.
0:27:49 > 0:27:54- It is charming, it is warming, but the market will dictate.- Absolutely.
0:27:54 > 0:27:59Going by the estimates, it looks as if they may need their bonus buy,
0:27:59 > 0:28:03so let's go and have a look at it.
0:28:03 > 0:28:06Ben, Tom, how are you feeling?
0:28:06 > 0:28:11- Yeah, good. Looking forward to today, can't wait.- Feeling great today, Anita.- Excellent, excellent.
0:28:11 > 0:28:19Well, you spent £128. You gave £172 leftover lolly to Kate.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Kate, what did you do with the dosh?
0:28:21 > 0:28:25I saw this and it leapt out at me.
0:28:29 > 0:28:34I thought it was quite alluring for two young gents like yourselves.
0:28:34 > 0:28:37- So, what is it, Kate?- What is it?
0:28:37 > 0:28:38Have a little feel.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41- LAUGHTER - Can you feel the weight of it?
0:28:41 > 0:28:42It's quite heavy, isn't it?
0:28:42 > 0:28:45It is quite heavy and that's because it's made of bronze.
0:28:45 > 0:28:47- Right.- Right. - Quite a valuable metal.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50- And it's called a pipe tamper.- All right.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54And ever since Sir Walter Raleigh introduced pipe smoking
0:28:54 > 0:28:57in the 16th century, to the Elizabethan Court in here England,
0:28:57 > 0:28:59pipes grew in popularity, of course,
0:28:59 > 0:29:01right the way through the Victorian period,
0:29:01 > 0:29:04and it was then that pipe tampers really became popular.
0:29:04 > 0:29:09The top was used just to stick the snuff down into the bowl of the pipe,
0:29:09 > 0:29:13to ease the smooth draw on the pipe,
0:29:13 > 0:29:15so it does have a practical function.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18But it is a lovely collectable item for today.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21- How much did you pay for it, Kate? - I paid 45.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23All right.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27Now, at auction, I've seen these go for 30, I've seen them go for 80,
0:29:27 > 0:29:31so you might have a little chance with that, I would say.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33OK. Well, it will be the only thing we get a profit off...
0:29:33 > 0:29:35LAUGHTER
0:29:35 > 0:29:38- I reckon we'll take that. - Positive, positive.
0:29:38 > 0:29:39LAUGHTER
0:29:39 > 0:29:42You don't have to choose the item at this point,
0:29:42 > 0:29:47but, for the moment, we're going to see what the auctioneer thinks
0:29:47 > 0:29:50of this very shapely leg of Kate's.
0:29:52 > 0:29:57So, David, what do you think of that shapely pipe tamper?
0:29:57 > 0:29:58It's a fabulous thing.
0:29:58 > 0:30:02A bit naughty, but it's rare to have it in bronze, I think.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04Smoking memorabilia now is a big area,
0:30:04 > 0:30:06so I think that'll do quite well.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10Well, the market likes a bit of sauciness.
0:30:10 > 0:30:14I think Kate did very well, there. What's your estimate on this one?
0:30:14 > 0:30:16- 30-50.- 30-50.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19Well, they paid 45, so they might get there
0:30:19 > 0:30:22and I think there's a strong possibility that they will.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24So, on to the Blues.
0:30:24 > 0:30:28Now, their first item is the German combination magnifying glass
0:30:28 > 0:30:32- and compass. Do you like that?- I do.
0:30:32 > 0:30:36It's a real man's toy, so I think it has a big appeal.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40It's a piece of German engineering, really, isn't it?
0:30:40 > 0:30:45And it also is functional and an interesting looking object,
0:30:45 > 0:30:49- and probably quite uncommon. - I think so. It's quite a rarity.
0:30:49 > 0:30:53- What's your estimate on that?- 20-40.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Oh, that's painful.
0:30:55 > 0:30:59They paid £75 and, interestingly enough,
0:30:59 > 0:31:04they both thought this was the lot that would make the biggest profit.
0:31:04 > 0:31:10Next lot is the little 19th-century, French, brass-mounted shell purse.
0:31:10 > 0:31:12Now, this is a lady's thing. Do you like that?
0:31:12 > 0:31:15- It's a real sweetie.- Yeah, it is the type of thing
0:31:15 > 0:31:18that a girl would like to have on her dressing table.
0:31:18 > 0:31:20It's lovely. The shells are beautiful.
0:31:20 > 0:31:25It's nicely mounted. It is French. For me, it's ooh-la-la.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28I like it. What is your estimate?
0:31:28 > 0:31:35- 30-50.- 30-50. They paid £28, so hopefully there's a profit in that.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38- And that one was Diane's favourite. - OK.
0:31:38 > 0:31:43Copper Vesta case in the form of a pan with a turned handle.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45- Do you like that?- I do.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Again, it's a lovely novelty.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50I think it's really nice and people do collect Vestas.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54It's not what I would expect it to be
0:31:54 > 0:31:58and it's the type of thing that gives you a wee bit of a surprise
0:31:58 > 0:32:01- so what's your estimate on that? - 30-50.
0:32:01 > 0:32:0730-50. Well, they paid £45 on it. So, again, we've got a chance.
0:32:07 > 0:32:12So, not too bad. But they may need their bonus buy,
0:32:12 > 0:32:14so let's go and have a look at it.
0:32:16 > 0:32:23Well, you girls spent a perfectly respectable £148 and you gave
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Charlie 152 left over lolly.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28So, Charles, what did you spend the money on?
0:32:28 > 0:32:32I really wanted to impress my ladies with a bit of pedigree,
0:32:32 > 0:32:33provenance and real history.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36I found a pair, like you two, OK?
0:32:36 > 0:32:39Anita, may you do the honours for me?
0:32:39 > 0:32:41- Look at them.- Ooh! - Just look at them.
0:32:41 > 0:32:44Have a handle and think about history
0:32:44 > 0:32:47because these are...
0:32:47 > 0:32:52They are delightful...covered tankards with these pewter covers.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54They are what we called Barouch-inspired,
0:32:54 > 0:32:56with these beautiful
0:32:56 > 0:33:02enamelled scenes, German, and they would date to around 1750.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04They're a bit tired,
0:33:04 > 0:33:07but if you were 270 years old, wouldn't you be as well?
0:33:07 > 0:33:10- Absolutely.- And they're a pair.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14And they've got a hunting theme, they've got all sorts of adventures,
0:33:14 > 0:33:17in those great forests of the 18th century.
0:33:17 > 0:33:20And they're full of foliage and I think they are really quite good.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24- They look like something you would find in a churchyard.- In where?
0:33:24 > 0:33:28- In the churchyard. - Churchyard, why?- Yeah, cos they look old...- Yeah, yeah.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31- ..like it would be filled with flowers.- That's it, yes, yeah.
0:33:31 > 0:33:33No, that's a good point. That's a good point.
0:33:33 > 0:33:35They cost me... Have a guess.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37£60.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39- £40.- £80.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40£80.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Do you think there's a profit in there, Charlie?
0:33:42 > 0:33:46Well, we're always told, aren't we, never buy things in poor condition?
0:33:46 > 0:33:49But when you buy things which are so early, you can't resist, and they're a pair.
0:33:49 > 0:33:53They will either bomb and make 40, or they could
0:33:53 > 0:33:56take off, in my opinion, and make £200 or £300.
0:33:56 > 0:33:59A difficult one, a difficult one,
0:33:59 > 0:34:03but right now we'll find out what the auctioneer thinks
0:34:03 > 0:34:06about Charlie's German tankards.
0:34:08 > 0:34:10Well, David, cheers!
0:34:10 > 0:34:12A couple of German tankards,
0:34:12 > 0:34:15tin-glazed, what do you think of them?
0:34:15 > 0:34:17I love these, Anita. They're absolutely fabulous.
0:34:17 > 0:34:20Probably from Thuringia, first half of the 18th century.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22Unfortunately, not in great condition.
0:34:22 > 0:34:26- So, condition is the issue with these ones.- It is.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28- Yeah. What's your estimate? - 40 to 60.
0:34:28 > 0:34:3340 to 60. Well, Charles paid £80 on these,
0:34:33 > 0:34:35so we might struggle there.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38But they are early and they are terrific.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42They have that wonderful naive quality, so we can live in hope.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46- We can.- Are you taking the sale today, David?- Yes, I am.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49I can't wait.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53OK, David, let's get the sale underway.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55At 170 bid, then. All done and finish.
0:34:55 > 0:34:56Are you excited?
0:34:56 > 0:34:58- Yep, very excited.- Heart beating?
0:34:58 > 0:35:00- Yep, racing. - Are you going to do well?
0:35:00 > 0:35:03- Are you confident? - Yeah, of course we are.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07First lot is the Gazelle bike and it's coming up right now!
0:35:07 > 0:35:10A vintage Dutch, Gazelle bicycle. Fantastic thing, this.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13I'll start you on the book, 35 I'm bid.
0:35:13 > 0:35:1635 I'm bid, the bicycle, 35 bid to see 40.
0:35:16 > 0:35:2140, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65.

0:35:31 > 0:35:33- Yes!- On your bike, on your bike! Yes!
0:35:33 > 0:35:37So, that was £70 pounds, boys.
0:35:37 > 0:35:38Wonderful. The bag.
0:35:38 > 0:35:41Vintage Gladstone bag, complete the look.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43I'll start you here at £20 for it.
0:35:43 > 0:35:4420, I'm bid, the Gladstone bag.

0:35:50 > 0:35:51All done.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54Oh, 35.
0:35:54 > 0:35:59That's minus 13. But, boys, you're still plus 12.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02Last item coming up, the marvellous Victorian kettle.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05Paid £35 for it and it's coming up right now.
0:36:05 > 0:36:07The Victorian copper kettle. £10, I'm bid, the kettle.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09Your lovely kettle.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32All in all, minus three.
0:36:32 > 0:36:39Are you going to take Kate's bonus buy, which is that marvellous,
0:36:39 > 0:36:41shapely pipe tamper in the form of a leg?
0:36:41 > 0:36:43- We're going to have to. - Are you going to go for it?
0:36:43 > 0:36:47- Yeah.- You're going to go for it. - Gotta get a leg up here, haven't we?
0:36:47 > 0:36:50- You're absolutely sure? - Yeah.- We trust Kate.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54We're going to go with the bonus buy and it's coming up right now.

0:37:21 > 0:37:24Well done, Kate.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27A wonderful result.
0:37:27 > 0:37:32Plus 30 on that item, which means that your final score
0:37:32 > 0:37:36has a plus in front of it - plus £27.
0:37:36 > 0:37:40- Well done.- Yay! Well done, you. - Thank you.
0:37:40 > 0:37:43Now, that could be a winning score.
0:37:43 > 0:37:47I don't want you to say anything to the Blues when you go out there,
0:37:47 > 0:37:52- so keep shtum.- Will do, will do.

0:42:26 > 0:42:29Given a chance, these boys would've bought three bikes
0:42:29 > 0:42:31and, you know, it would have worked.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Well, they would have been as well to do that, Kate,
0:42:34 > 0:42:38because the made losses in the next two lots.
0:42:38 > 0:42:41But you were rescued by Kate
