0:00:02 > 0:00:04Welcome to the great Bargain Hunt derby here in Wetherby.
0:00:04 > 0:00:06Today, I am under starter's orders.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08Before the teams head out,
0:00:08 > 0:00:11I'm going to get a couple of furlongs under my belt.
0:00:11 > 0:00:16Giddy-up. So let's crack the whip and let's get this show on the road.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19And cut. Excellent, that's a wrap, Anita. Thank you very much.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21Excellent, I think we got away with that.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23I think that was very convincing, don't you?
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Oh, well done, Anita, nobody will ever know.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29Oh, right, yeah, let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:29 > 0:00:31HORSE NEIGHS
0:00:56 > 0:01:01From horse racing stalls to antique stalls, this place has it all.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03We are in for a cracking show today.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Let's have a look at what's coming up.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Both teams play a very cautious shop.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11- Does that look right to you? - SHE LAUGHS
0:01:11 > 0:01:13What do you think of those?
0:01:13 > 0:01:16- I don't like them. - I wouldn't buy them.- OK.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- What do you think?- I think it's a little tatty.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21I think it'd make a good fire.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Excuse me.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25But at auction, there's plenty of action.
0:01:25 > 0:01:2745, 60.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- Yes.- 25, 25, 35, 40.
0:01:30 > 0:01:31But that's all for later.
0:01:32 > 0:01:38On Bargain Hunt today, we have two teams of married couples.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41For the Reds, we have Jo and James.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44And for the Blues, we have Karen and Alan.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- Hello, everyone. ALL:- Hello. Hello, Anita.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50So, Jo, tell me how you two guys met?
0:01:50 > 0:01:54We actually got together about three years ago but we've known each other
0:01:54 > 0:01:57since we were about 12 or 13.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59We went to separate schools but had mutual friends.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02We used to bump into each other at parties and things like that.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05- Oh, did you fancy one other then? - He probably fancied me.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09Of course he did, of course he did, of course he did.
0:02:09 > 0:02:10So, yes, and like I say,
0:02:10 > 0:02:14we got together about three years ago and we actually got married
0:02:14 > 0:02:18- secretly last month.- Oh, a secret wedding, tell me more.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Well, James proposed about six weeks before the actual date.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23He planned everything,
0:02:23 > 0:02:27so we didn't even tell the children until the night before.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28- Did he tell you?- Yes.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32And it's a good job I said yes, because he'd planned everything
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- even the honeymoon. - But this is a very special guy.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38He used to play rugby at a professional level.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Tell me all about that.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43That's right, Anita. A professional rugby league player.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46I played for Wakefield Trinity, Huddersfield Giants and Doncaster
0:02:46 > 0:02:48from the age of 17.
0:02:48 > 0:02:53And the highlight of my career was representing Great Britain at under-21 level.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55He's a bit of a catch, isn't he?
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- Just a bit.- Oh, she's lovely, she's a bit of a catch as well.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Yes, yes, exactly.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04So, how do think you're going to play the field of Wetherby?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Well, I'm the boss.
0:03:06 > 0:03:07LAUGHTER
0:03:07 > 0:03:11- Yeah, I'm the boss. - I like the way that you're quite straightforward about that.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13You know, there's no question.
0:03:13 > 0:03:14No, I'm definitely in charge.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Good luck, my darlings, good luck.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Thank you.- Now, Blues, my lovely Blues.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21- Yeah.- You guys are very sporty... - We are.- ..as well.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23So, Karen...
0:03:23 > 0:03:25- Yes...- ..what sport are you interested in?
0:03:25 > 0:03:29Oh, my goodness, I played hockey for Yorkshire and then I trained in
0:03:29 > 0:03:31karate for a good...
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- Yeah, that's right.- Watch it!
0:03:33 > 0:03:39I know. I gained my back belt and I was the ladies' national British
0:03:39 > 0:03:41champion in 1992.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Can you show me a karate move?
0:03:43 > 0:03:46I mean, I'm doing that but is that a karate move or is that just a big air kiss?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Well, not really. Just a big kiss, yeah.
0:03:49 > 0:03:50You just got to go like that, really.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53- That's one of the moves. - All right, show us that.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55- Step forward.- Right, step forward with that.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- And punch and pull back. Step forward. That's it.- That there. That there.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00And there. Swing round, punch and back.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02All right. Am I doing it all... How am I doing?
0:04:02 > 0:04:04That's a bit... Just twist.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07- Oh, just...- That's it and back.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11All right, OK. I'm having to carry this, so it's making me not very good.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12That's all right.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Alan, you're a rugby player as well.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17I used to be in my youth.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21I stopped many years ago because of injuries but I still managed to play
0:04:21 > 0:04:24for North of England but I...
0:04:24 > 0:04:25I can't believe it.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- ..but I played the gentleman's code. - What, what is that?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- Rugby union. - What, is there a difference?
0:04:31 > 0:04:33- What did you play? - There is, rugby league.
0:04:33 > 0:04:34Rugby league. And rugby...?
0:04:34 > 0:04:38- Rugby union.- What, do you all not just run after a wee kind of egg-shaped ball?
0:04:38 > 0:04:40It's kind of like that.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42- It looks like that.- There's a slight difference.
0:04:42 > 0:04:46So, team, how are you going to get on out there today?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Yeah, I want to go cheap and go long.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50I want to be careful.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54I'm a Yorkshire man through and through, so I don't want to waste my money.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56So, well, I've got two very
0:04:56 > 0:04:58COMPETITIVE teams here.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02So I think we'll get you out there as quickly as possible.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06Give you £300 for you and for you.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Now, your experts await.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11So, on you go.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14And very, very, very good luck.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17I think the sparks will fly today
0:05:17 > 0:05:20with that competitive lot.
0:05:23 > 0:05:27And helping the teams along the way today, are our experts.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Casting off for the Reds, it's Kate Bliss.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34And batting for the Blues, it's Charles Hanson.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38What are you going to be looking for, Joanne?
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Jewellery, sparkles, diamonds.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43I like silver things and I also like teddy bears.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44Art Deco, unusual.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47- Ooh, yeah.- Something maritimal
0:05:47 > 0:05:48would be nice... if maritimal is a word.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Maritimal, I think that's quite right.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52OK, teams. 60 minutes.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Start the clock. HOOTER
0:05:54 > 0:05:57Maritime. I'll tie it up. Follow me. Come on.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Let's get stuck in.- OK.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Well, something's caught the eyes of the Blues.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06What do you look for if it's silver?
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- A hallmark of some kind.- Absolutely. - Yeah. I don't know.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12No, it's not silver. Look at the top of that.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13- It's gilded.- With it not being silver...
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- It's not silver at all.- ..I'm not quite sure about it.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18But would you have it on your table at home?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- No.- Probably.- Why not a cruet?
0:06:20 > 0:06:21- No, no.- Why not?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Does that look right to you?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Every day's a school day with Charles.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Speaking of schooldays, look what Kate spotted.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Are your guys too small for this?
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Yeah, no, they're too big.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Yeah, too big now. Yeah, that's lovely, though.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38It's quite nice to have a double one, actually.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Yeah, it is. And it's another lesson from Mr Hanson.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Look at that. And look, Christie's...
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- With Christie's.- ..London were the manufacturers.
0:06:46 > 0:06:51But what's nice, that's your moleskin hat and it comes with the top-hat box as well. Look at that.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55What a shame the handle's become detached.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Yeah. Very tired.
0:06:57 > 0:06:58It is tired. What a shame.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00It's priced at 165.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03I think that's a little bit too much.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- OK.- But maybe it's something we can think about.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07Mental note. 165 is not expensive.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09But it's got to go some...
0:07:09 > 0:07:12- Yes.- ..to make some money. - Yeah, definitely. - I'm not a fashion expert.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14I wouldn't say that. Come on.
0:07:14 > 0:07:15LAUGHTER
0:07:15 > 0:07:19Ah, you look very fetching in the Bargain Hunt fleece, Alan.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Back with the Reds and time for Kate to share some of her knowledge.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Feel the weight of that.- Yes. - Yeah.- Super-light.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Yeah.- So they are reproductions and, look, actually, you can tell...
0:07:28 > 0:07:31- Yes.- ..if you look at the back. - Yeah.- They're brand-new,
0:07:31 > 0:07:33so in the auction, they're going to show up brand-new.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Yes.- So I think we'll probably steer clear.
0:07:35 > 0:07:40- Yeah, definitely.- A telltale sign, Kate, "Buyer beware!"
0:07:40 > 0:07:42You like little spoons?
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- Yeah, I do, yeah.- Yeah, they're little souvenir spoons, essentially,
0:07:45 > 0:07:46probably Continental,
0:07:46 > 0:07:50and maybe a lower grade of silver to English sterling silver.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52They don't make a great deal at auction.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56Oh, what's Karen spotted?
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- I've seen this.- Oh, Alan.
0:07:59 > 0:08:00He's really nice, isn't he?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02And all his legs and his arms move.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05What is it with teddy bears, what is it, Karen?
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- I don't know, they're just so cute and cuddly.- She has a boxful.- Yeah.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Like your husband, hey? Cute and cuddly.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12- That's right. - What, cuddly?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14LAUGHTER
0:08:14 > 0:08:15I'm going to say, Karen,
0:08:15 > 0:08:18you've picked a really nice bear because if you look at the face
0:08:18 > 0:08:22where lots of hands can touch and wear down.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Look how the plush, almost honey fur, has been rubbed away.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28He's a Dean's bear.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31I would have thought, date-wise, he might be 1940s, '50s.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- Really?- Absolutely.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37Quite a cute bear. Bears do well at auction because they have that
0:08:37 > 0:08:40emotive attachment to maybe buyers who remember their bears.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- That's right.- Give me a price.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44What would you pay for this bear?
0:08:44 > 0:08:45- Gosh.- 25.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47- You'll find out.- Yeah. - Strut your stuff.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49- Yeah.- OK.- Go on, then.
0:08:49 > 0:08:50Shall I take Paddington with me?
0:08:50 > 0:08:53You can do, it suits you. Go on. Get off to bed.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Go on, then, Alan, do your best.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00- I was wondering if I could ask you what your best price on him would be?- I've got 40 on it...
0:09:00 > 0:09:02- OK.- ..but I'll do it for 30.- You wouldn't take closer to 20 for him,
0:09:02 > 0:09:04- would you?- I can't do that.
0:09:04 > 0:09:05Make it more emotional.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- Yeah. Oh!- He's buying it for me. - Go on, I'll meet
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- you halfway at 25. - Would you take 22?
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- Yeah, I'll do you 22. - Thank you.- Deal.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16So, a swoop in from Karen to seal the deal.
0:09:16 > 0:09:20- Well done.- That's great, guys. So, one down.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21You know, one down.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23We began as three.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- We now go as four.- We're now four. - We're now four.- And two to find.
0:09:26 > 0:09:27- Four bears.- Oh, oh.- There we go.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29- Four bears.- Steady, Charles.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Right, Reds, get a move on.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35Time to get an item under your belt.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- You like that chair, do you?- I know it's quite modern, isn't it?
0:09:37 > 0:09:41Well, it is modern and it isn't because do you know why it's got this
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- hinged seat?- Oh, gosh, yeah.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45LAUGHTER
0:09:45 > 0:09:48So, yes, it's known as a commode, of course,
0:09:48 > 0:09:50which is what it originally would've been used for,
0:09:50 > 0:09:53but it's been painted to give it quite a more modern look.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Not convinced with the commode then, Kate?
0:09:57 > 0:10:02Meanwhile, charming Charles is making friends.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05That would've been, many years ago, a lovely tea caddy.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Ah, look at the interior, it's been converted.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10This is rosewood, so exotic.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12The mother-of-pearl sadly has been lost over time.
0:10:12 > 0:10:16- Can't imagine having to lock your tea away, can you? - Quite damaged, though, isn't it?
0:10:16 > 0:10:18It is damaged. Yeah. Tea was expensive.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22- Yeah. Yeah.- You locked it away from the butler.- Yeah. - There's your lock plate.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25And who knows? Maybe it's not working now because that butler broke into it.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28- Yes, maybe he did.- He was des... - He was desperate for a cuppa!
0:10:28 > 0:10:30..gagging for milk and two sugars.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32- Yes.- Well, I don't know about you,
0:10:32 > 0:10:35but I'm always having to keep an eye on my butler.
0:10:35 > 0:10:39Right, Reds, isn't it time you pocketed your first purchase?
0:10:39 > 0:10:41You're 20 minutes into your shop.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Ooh, what have you got there?
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Oh, it's quite heavy. It's lovely.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Oh, that's a nice chunky one, isn't it?
0:10:47 > 0:10:51So some people call them mammoth pocket watches cos they're quite good and chunky
0:10:51 > 0:10:54and the movement is in quite a thick case.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56It's probably Victorian.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Let's have a little look cos we've got silver hallmarks here.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Fattorini is the name.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Bolton and Skipton. It's 1912 in date.
0:11:03 > 0:11:07- What is the price, though? Cos this is the thing.- £170.
0:11:07 > 0:11:08Oh, gosh, that's quite a lot, isn't it?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10It's a lot of money to spend on an item like that.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Do you want to go and ask see what he has to say?
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Yeah, no problem. OK, where's our man?
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- Hi, there, sir.- Hiya.
0:11:17 > 0:11:18We like your pocket watch.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20- The Fattorini watch.- Yeah.
0:11:20 > 0:11:21I could do you a decent discount.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23The death though would be 130.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26I think we were thinking nearer the £100 mark.
0:11:26 > 0:11:27- Yeah.- I'll do another fiver.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30- 125.- What do you think?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32I think it's the first thing we've really seen.
0:11:32 > 0:11:33- OK.- Let's have a little think.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- OK.- We know where it is.- Yeah.
0:11:35 > 0:11:36- Good idea. - And we can always come back.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39- Yeah, good idea. - ANITA: So close to sealing the deal.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Reds are playing it cautiously today, unlike the Blues.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44I wonder how much it is?
0:11:44 > 0:11:45DEALER CHUCKLES
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Yeah, although that, maybe that echo,
0:11:48 > 0:11:49that dealer's cackle
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- it's expensive. - The best I can do - 320.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55You see, I mean, that isn't bad, though...
0:11:55 > 0:11:57- No, it's very good.- ..for what is.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59I'd give him £3.20.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Out of your price range, Charles.
0:12:01 > 0:12:06Thought as much. Now, this looks more in our price range, Reds.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07What do you think of those, James?
0:12:07 > 0:12:09They are in pretty good order.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13You've got a nice clear weight mark on the top there, 1kg.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15The nice thing is, that you've got the set here.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18I'm just wondering if there's one missing here.
0:12:18 > 0:12:19Missing, mm.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- What have we got on there?- £60.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23Yeah, it's quite nice.
0:12:23 > 0:12:24You've got the name on there.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26The London name.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28It's a great piece of mahogany.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30And obviously it sets off the weights really nicely.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- Yes.- Where's our gentleman here?
0:12:32 > 0:12:33- We'll see what we can do.- Yes, OK.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37Excuse me, sir. Obviously, there's one missing, which is a real shame,
0:12:37 > 0:12:38but they are a great set.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40They are nice. They do look nice, don't they?
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Yeah. What could you do for us?
0:12:42 > 0:12:46- How's 50?- I was hoping a bit more than that, probably more like 40.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49Due to the fact that there is one missing and it will affect the sale
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- value at auction.- I'll do 45, I'll meet you halfway.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54You couldn't do an extra fiver for us, could you?
0:12:54 > 0:12:56I'd struggle with a fiver but how's about 43?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- Does that help?- Well, that does help.- It does help.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- Well, every penny helps.- Yeah. - I'm happy with that if you are.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03- Yes.- Yeah? Deal. Thank you very much.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05- Thank you.- Thank you. Thank you.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08- Well done, you guys. First purchase.- Woo!- Very nice.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Fantastic, thank you very much indeed.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Not much time left.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17I'm going to take you inside where there's loads all under one roof.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19- We're going to have a good look. - Right.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21- Sounds good.- Brilliant.- Good call, Kate.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25Right, you're 25 minutes into your shop. While the teams carry on shopping,
0:13:25 > 0:13:28time for me to show you something pretty cool.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Who can resist the allure of the fan?
0:13:39 > 0:13:41At the beginning of time,
0:13:41 > 0:13:44the fan was quite simply a palm leaf
0:13:44 > 0:13:48used to stir the air for a little bit
0:13:48 > 0:13:52of personal cooling. But over time,
0:13:52 > 0:13:58they developed into masterpieces of skill and craftsmanship.
0:13:58 > 0:14:05Now, this little French beauty was made in the late 19th,
0:14:05 > 0:14:09early 20th-century, the Belle Epoque.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12It is a beautiful thing.
0:14:12 > 0:14:17The guards and sticks are made of stained and gilded wood.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22With this wonderful curved linear, Art Nouveau motif.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26A single, silk tassel hangs from the base.
0:14:26 > 0:14:31Fans became an essential fashion accessory
0:14:31 > 0:14:33and they were often painted by
0:14:33 > 0:14:37masters or carved by sculptors.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41This elegant fan would have been used
0:14:41 > 0:14:44by a fine society lady of fashion.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47She would have worn it to a grand ball
0:14:47 > 0:14:50as an integral part of her dress.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53She would have used it to keep cool
0:14:53 > 0:14:54in the bustling halls
0:14:54 > 0:14:58but also as a means of communication.
0:14:58 > 0:15:04It would have been used in the rituals of flirtation and courtship.
0:15:04 > 0:15:09Small movements of the fan could send across the crowded floors
0:15:09 > 0:15:14coded messages of love or rejection.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18Fans are objects of beauty,
0:15:18 > 0:15:25little works of art. And how much for this little beauty?
0:15:25 > 0:15:27£70.
0:15:27 > 0:15:32Isn't that just fan-tastic?
0:15:38 > 0:15:40BELL RINGS
0:15:40 > 0:15:43- Sorry about that.- Time to ring the changes and get back to the shop.
0:15:43 > 0:15:48With only 20 minutes left, both teams have two items to find.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- We like your bell. - You like my big bell.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Yes, it's a very good big bell.
0:15:53 > 0:15:54Is it an original, do you think?
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- Probably not.- No. No.- But it makes a lot of original noise.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59- Yeah.- Yeah, we found that out. - Yes, it does.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02So, we were thinking about £10 for it.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Oh, no. I'd do it for 25.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08- I won't do it less than that. - Would you do 20 for it?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10I'll do 22.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13I'd like to just... We've still got plenty of time.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Walk away and take a chance
0:16:15 > 0:16:18- it'll be here later on. - That's right, Charles, no time to mess around.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20The clock is still ticking.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23The Reds have made it inside and are already on the rummage.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Lovely, thank you. If we look inside,
0:16:25 > 0:16:28we've got quite a lot of damage going on in there.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Can you see the cracks?
0:16:30 > 0:16:31Yes.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34Yes. They're lovely but I think the damage might be too much.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36Too much. Yeah, definitely. Right.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38It's lovely, isn't it?
0:16:38 > 0:16:41LAUGHTER
0:16:41 > 0:16:44What I like about this box is it's so original.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Ah, that's your candle box...
0:16:46 > 0:16:49- Oh, yes.- ..where you'd have kept your candles in the old days.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52- Sort of like a footlocker.- Exactly.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55It's just, Alan and Karen, a really good pitch pine box.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59- Yes.- Nice size, good for the smaller home,
0:16:59 > 0:17:02people like this sort of pitch pine.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06And I just think it's a very nice box which is very original.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09- It is, but...- They're not keen.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11I think it's a little tatty.
0:17:11 > 0:17:12I think it would make a good fire.
0:17:12 > 0:17:14No, they're definitely not keen.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Oh, Jo's spotted another chair.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- Get the chair.- Yeah. You want a chair, don't you?
0:17:18 > 0:17:20I don't know, I just like, I like it.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Yeah. Yeah, I'd say it's Edwardian.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26At auction, I would probably put sort of £15, £20 on it.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27That's a fair retail price.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29- Yes.- You can always ask.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Would you be willing to take £15 for that chair?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Yes. No.
0:17:34 > 0:17:3645?
0:17:36 > 0:17:38It's fair enough.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40- Thank you.- Thank you very much.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42No harm in asking, though, Jo.
0:17:42 > 0:17:46Come on, teams, you both still need to find two items.
0:17:46 > 0:17:48That's it, yeah, that's a cute thing around here.
0:17:48 > 0:17:52What have you got there? We've got one there, have a think. Like it?
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- What is it, is it like a snuff box? - It's plated...
0:17:55 > 0:17:59- Oh, it's not snuff.- ..rather than being silver. How much is it? £9.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01£9. Gordon Bennett.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05I mean, as a box, it's probably 1960s.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06It could make 100 pence.
0:18:06 > 0:18:08OK.
0:18:08 > 0:18:09It could make 1,000 pence.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- Right, yes.- But that's the range.
0:18:12 > 0:18:17So, you are saying... Just curiously, what would be your best on that?
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Seven.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21- You couldn't do for five? - Being really cheap, you wouldn't take five?
0:18:21 > 0:18:23No, I think seven's about it.
0:18:23 > 0:18:27Now, I love art and I love history...
0:18:27 > 0:18:28Really?
0:18:28 > 0:18:30..but I'm not keen on the box.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34- No. OK.- But it would probably make some money and if you and Karen
0:18:34 > 0:18:37really like it, go with your instinct.
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Very brave, Charles, time to make your minds up, Blues.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Time's ticking, guys, cos literally we have now, we've got 20 minutes.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Meanwhile, let's check back in with the Reds.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50I have just seen these salad servers.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55The question is whether the ends started off with the handles, so the
0:18:55 > 0:18:59handles look like continental silver to me or silver plate.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01They're quite, quite smart, aren't they?
0:19:01 > 0:19:03- Yes.- What do you think of those?
0:19:03 > 0:19:05- I...- I don't like them.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- ..I wouldn't buy them, no.- OK.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09To be honest, they're different, unusual.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11- Let's keep going. - Yeah, let's keep going.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13Well, that's unanimous at least.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17I think they need a little helping hand, Kate.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Sweet little child's tea set.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22I think it's amazing that it stayed all in one piece,
0:19:22 > 0:19:25that every single piece is there.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Complete, it probably dates from the 1950s, I would say.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Perhaps a shade earlier, I don't know.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33But it's got its original box. We've got all the lids.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35It's certainly Continental.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37And I think it's probably Eastern European.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39So what do we think of this, Joanne?
0:19:39 > 0:19:41I like that. I think that's a possible contender.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Well, let me go and find the stallholder.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45I'll find out how much it is and what we've got.
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- Right.- And have a little look round here, see if there's anything else.
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- We might be able to do a deal on two.- Very good point, Kate.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53I love a good job lot.
0:19:53 > 0:19:54Oh, Kate's back.
0:19:54 > 0:19:58- What's the news?- The bad news is the ticket price was 28.
0:19:58 > 0:20:03- Right.- The good news is he's come down to 19.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04Oh, right, OK.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06- Wow.- Now, I think there's potential in that.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Yes, definitely. Brilliant.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Second item. Great.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11- Bargain buy.- That one's done.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12- Great.- Onwards.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Well done, guys. That's two items down.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17You better get a move on.
0:20:17 > 0:20:19Back to the Blues.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Anything you like here, guys?
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Not a pottery sort of guy.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- OK.- Oh, the Reds are still at the same stall.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30They've spotted a pair of sweet, miniature, silver chairs.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- I really like those.- Do you? - Yes, I do. They're quirky.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36- What do you think, James?- They're lovely. Absolutely beautiful.
0:20:36 > 0:20:37- Do you like them?- Yes, I do.
0:20:37 > 0:20:42What we've got is actually a Continental silver mark which is 800.
0:20:42 > 0:20:47Sterling silver standard is 925 parts per thousand parts of alloy.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Erm, let's just check the other one as well.
0:20:49 > 0:20:50We'll pop that one down.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Have a look at this one. And this one is exactly the same.
0:20:53 > 0:20:56What do you think? Would you not, with them not being 925,
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- would you say no?- No, not necessarily.
0:20:58 > 0:21:02I think they're really sweet and there are collectors of miniature,
0:21:02 > 0:21:06silver furniture and they would like them because of the item.
0:21:06 > 0:21:08I think they're £48 each, aren't they?
0:21:08 > 0:21:10They're actually priced quite fairly.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13If he'll do a deal on the two, we might have something.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15- Do you think so?- And you said you wanted to spend lots.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17- I did. Yeah. - You guys go and have a chat.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20- See what you can do. - Shall we take them with us or shall we leave them there?
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- Take them with you.- Take a seat and seal the deal, Jo. Come on
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Blues, it's time you made some decisions.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27We've got 15 minutes to go.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30- Yes.- And the frightening prospect is we need two things.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32What are we seeing so far that we might go back to?
0:21:32 > 0:21:33I quite like the little box.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36- I like...- I don't know why the box is saying something to me.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Shall we go into the last ten minutes with one to find?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41So, Charles, you're not convinced?
0:21:41 > 0:21:44But it looks as though the trinket box is number two for the Blues.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Right then, Jo, how did you get on?
0:21:46 > 0:21:49He's let us have it for 70 for the pair.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50- Well done.- I know.- Well done.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52- Brilliant.- We got there in the end.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Three items. I think you've been a brilliant team together.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56- Do you?- I'm absolutely exhausted.
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Good work, Reds, that's your three items bought, well done.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02The Blues are sealing the deal for their trinket box.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04We're still interested in the little box.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06I just wondered if we could take it, please?
0:22:06 > 0:22:07- This one.- Yes. £7?
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Seven.
0:22:09 > 0:22:10Is that all right for you?
0:22:10 > 0:22:11Thank you. Thank you.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13- Thank you very much.- Thank you.
0:22:13 > 0:22:15Great, team, one to find, come on.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Right, Charles, I think your team are going to need a hand to find that final item.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Fire dogs.
0:22:23 > 0:22:28- Fire dogs?- So, you would have your, maybe, your brush and shovel
0:22:28 > 0:22:29and your poker.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32And what does that mean there?
0:22:32 > 0:22:36Exactly. Now, that's called your kitemark or your lozenge mark,
0:22:36 > 0:22:42and that was only used on metalwares between 1842 and 1886.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Here they are at £65.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47I would like to buy them for probably about £40.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50- Leave it to me, OK.- Let's buy those. - Be back shortly, OK.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52- Let's try.- All right. - I'll take that one with me, OK.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Thank you.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Work your magic, Charles.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59OK, the good news is they are for sale.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01We knew that, Charles.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04But the bad news is I can't budge on £55.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06- 55. - We've got five minutes, team.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08- Five minutes.- It's up to you.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11I think they're smart, I think they're sophisticated.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13I don't think you have much of a choice, team.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16I'm going to go over there. If you want to buy them, give me a thumbs-up,
0:23:16 > 0:23:18OK? And I'll shake the man's hand, OK.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20All right, give me a thumbs up and I'm watching you.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23- What do you think? It's entirely up to you.- Why don't we?- Yes.- Yes?
0:23:23 > 0:23:26- Yes.- Thumbs up? OK, I'm doing it.
0:23:28 > 0:23:30Thanks a lot, they're sold. Yeah, that's it. Yeah, they're ours.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32Sold. Done.
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Ooh, that was a close one. HORSE NEIGHS
0:23:34 > 0:23:37That's it, stop the clock. Time's up, teams.
0:23:37 > 0:23:38- How do you feel?- Good.
0:23:38 > 0:23:39- Good.- Yeah, good.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- Good.- Thank you. - We bought three items.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43- We have.- That's it.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45Thanks, big man. Thanks for the ride.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Thanks a lot. Give us a kiss. - It's been a riot.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Let's get a cup of tea, come on.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Get out of here! Come on, let's get back.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Right then, time for a recap.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59Let's have a look at what the Reds bought.
0:23:59 > 0:24:04Weighing in first was the set of scientific brass weights, price £43.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Served up next, the child's porcelain tea set.
0:24:09 > 0:24:12It set them back £19.
0:24:12 > 0:24:13And finally, they settled for
0:24:13 > 0:24:16the pair of silver miniature chairs for £70.
0:24:18 > 0:24:19Guys, did you have a good time?
0:24:19 > 0:24:21- Brilliant, thank you. - Fantastic, thank you.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Oh, you've big smiles on your faces.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25It was smiles all the way.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27All the way? Well, that's what we want, Kate.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30- Good, good.- What was your favourite item?- Our two little chairs.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32We got two little miniature silver chairs.
0:24:32 > 0:24:35I absolutely love them, bit of sparkle. Yeah, that's what I wanted.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37What about you? What was your favourite item?
0:24:37 > 0:24:39A set of weights in its own case.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41- All right, OK.- Very different.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44What's going to make the most profit, though?
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- I think the tea set. - Do both of you agree on that?
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Yes, I agree on the tea set, yes.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- Do you? Great. - How much money did you spend?
0:24:51 > 0:24:54- £132. - Not bad at all.
0:24:54 > 0:24:55So, that's 100 and...
0:24:55 > 0:24:57- 68.- There we go.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59Forget the three pound.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02- There you go. - Kate, that's a lot of dosh.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Yeah, I like the pink ones, definitely.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06- Oh, you like the pink ones? - Ooh, yeah.
0:25:06 > 0:25:10- Have you any idea what you're going to buy?- Ah, do you know, I do, yeah.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12- I hope they like it. - Ah, I'm sure they will.
0:25:12 > 0:25:13Is it diamonds?
0:25:13 > 0:25:15LAUGHTER
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Well, off you go - spend it all, Kate.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21And let's have a look at what the Blues have bought.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24First, it was the wee teddy that took their fancy.
0:25:24 > 0:25:26They paid £22.
0:25:26 > 0:25:31Next to tempt them was the trinket box for just a mere £7.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35And finally, they had a burning desire
0:25:35 > 0:25:38to the buy the andirons for £55.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41- Well, Blues, did you have fun? - We had loads of fun.- Lots of fun, lots of fun.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- Really enjoyed it.- You enjoyed yourself?- Wonderful time.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46- We did, it was great fun. - Excellent, excellent.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48What was your favourite item?
0:25:48 > 0:25:52My favourite item were the firedogs, the brass firedogs.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Ah, do you agree?
0:25:54 > 0:25:57No, I like the teddy bear, cos he was so cute.
0:25:57 > 0:26:01- Ah, teddy bear.- Yes, yeah. - But which item is going to bring the most profit?
0:26:01 > 0:26:05- The little silver box, maybe. - The little silver box.- Yes.
0:26:05 > 0:26:06- Yes.- You both agree?
0:26:06 > 0:26:08- Yes.- Marital harmony.
0:26:08 > 0:26:10- That's right.- Ha-ha. For now.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13- How much money did you spend? - £84.
0:26:13 > 0:26:14£84?
0:26:14 > 0:26:17- I think you were very canny.- Yes.
0:26:17 > 0:26:22So, that leaves me with £216.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24- Yes.- Thank you.
0:26:24 > 0:26:29That, Charlie Hanson, is an enormous wadge of money.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32I know, don't. I know, it's a frightening amount of money, Anita.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36And it's scary, but I think something solid, well-built, made to last -
0:26:36 > 0:26:38like Alan.
0:26:38 > 0:26:39LAUGHTER
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Off you go then, Charlie.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45And it's our turn now to toddle off to the auction.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59We've trotted up the road from Wetherby
0:26:59 > 0:27:01to Thomas Watson's auctioneers in Darlington,
0:27:01 > 0:27:06and I'm joined today by David Elstob.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08David, it's lovely to be here.
0:27:08 > 0:27:09- Hi, Anita.- Well,
0:27:09 > 0:27:14we have a marvellous selection of items from our Red team,
0:27:14 > 0:27:20and our first item is this wonderful box of weights, Victorian box.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Tell me, what do you think about it?
0:27:22 > 0:27:24I think it's absolutely fabulous, love it.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26I love the colour of the box, the beech is lovely.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28I think it would make a great set of paperweights.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31And of course, I would say that the maker's name makes a difference.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Baird & Tatlock, a name which people are familiar with.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36- Estimate, David?- £50-£70.
0:27:36 > 0:27:41Lovely. They paid £43, which I think is a very good price for that.
0:27:41 > 0:27:46- They did very well.- Excellent, and they deserve a profit on that item.
0:27:46 > 0:27:49Our second one is this lovely blue-and-white,
0:27:49 > 0:27:51willow pattern doll's tea set.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Tell me what you think about that.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55We see a lot of these.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58I mean, what sets this apart, really, is its original card box.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01So, that's actually quite rare.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Without that, not a very important object, but with the original box,
0:28:04 > 0:28:06I think it's quite collectable.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09It's a lovely thing. It's probably never been used.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11I don't think so, it looks immaculate.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Estimate on that?
0:28:13 > 0:28:14£30 to £50.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Excellent. They paid £19.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19They both rather cleverly thought
0:28:19 > 0:28:23that this item might bring them the most profit.
0:28:23 > 0:28:29Third item is this little pair of miniature silver models of chairs.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33People go soppy over miniature things.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36Are they going to go soppy over these little chairs?
0:28:36 > 0:28:38I certainly hope so, I mean,
0:28:38 > 0:28:39they're beautiful little miniatures
0:28:39 > 0:28:42and miniature silver is very well-collected.
0:28:42 > 0:28:44They are Italian, we know which town they came from,
0:28:44 > 0:28:46so I think they'll do well.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48What's your estimate on that?
0:28:48 > 0:28:50£30 to £50.
0:28:50 > 0:28:52Well, they paid £70.
0:28:52 > 0:28:53It's quite a lot, quite a lot.
0:28:53 > 0:28:55They paid a lot, but there's a chance.
0:28:55 > 0:28:58We're looking at profits on our first two items
0:28:58 > 0:29:00and the possibility of a
0:29:00 > 0:29:02profit on the chairs.
0:29:02 > 0:29:05So, they might not need their bonus buy,
0:29:05 > 0:29:07but we're going to have a look at it anyway.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12Well, well, well. Joanne, James, how are you this morning?
0:29:12 > 0:29:15- Very well, thank you. - Good, good, good, good,.
0:29:15 > 0:29:20Now, you spent a perfectly respectable £132,
0:29:20 > 0:29:23and you gave Kate £168.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25Kate, what did you buy?
0:29:25 > 0:29:27I know Jo likes the pretty-pretty.
0:29:27 > 0:29:28- Doesn't she, James?- She does.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31So, I've gone for the pretty-pretty.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Wow. Oh, what is that?
0:29:33 > 0:29:35Very different.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37Have a little look.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40It's got a lovely veneer of mother-of-pearl on the top,
0:29:40 > 0:29:44and around the sides, and this lovely chequered pattern,
0:29:44 > 0:29:45which is quite Art Deco.
0:29:45 > 0:29:52Turn the lid, and it pops out, and we have a little perfume atomiser.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55- Oh, right!- It's also really nice, because we've got a little name there.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57It says "Le Kid, France".
0:29:57 > 0:30:01Art Deco would make me think probably 1930s,
0:30:01 > 0:30:05but it might be possibly a 1950s in the style of Art Deco.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08It's all working, you can feel the spring's still there.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11- It's lovely.- How much did you pay for it?- I paid £20.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13- Did you?- I did.- Wow.
0:30:13 > 0:30:14SHE MOUTHS
0:30:14 > 0:30:16Which I think is a bit of a steal.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19More importantly, how much do you think it will make?
0:30:19 > 0:30:21You're always on the money aren't you, James!
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Well, do you know, I would probably pay £30 for it.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26Lovely wee item. What do you think of it?
0:30:26 > 0:30:29I wasn't sure at first, but I actually really like it.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31I think it's... I'd like something like that.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34- Yes.- You don't have to choose just now, folks.
0:30:34 > 0:30:38You'll choose after your third item has been sold.
0:30:38 > 0:30:40But right now,
0:30:40 > 0:30:44we're going to find out if the auctioneer smells success
0:30:44 > 0:30:46in this little atomiser.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51So David, a little atomiser.
0:30:51 > 0:30:55I like perfume bottles and we've got that lovely mother-of-pearl look
0:30:55 > 0:30:58with the cobalt blue.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01- Do you like that?- I love the chequer inlay on it, it is fabulous.
0:31:01 > 0:31:03The inlay's good. Yes, I like that.
0:31:03 > 0:31:05And the style of it's very Deco.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08I think, personally, that it may be kind of '70s in date,
0:31:08 > 0:31:11- somewhere around there. - So, it's not terribly old.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14- Can we still call it vintage? - I think we can.
0:31:14 > 0:31:17What's your estimate on that, David?
0:31:17 > 0:31:18£20 to £40.
0:31:18 > 0:31:21Well, Kate paid £20, so,
0:31:21 > 0:31:25a good choice and a possibility of profit on that one.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28- I think so. - Let's have a look at the Blues.
0:31:28 > 0:31:33Their first item is this vintage Dean's Childsplay teddy bear.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Teddy bears are always popular.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38They are. Yeah, he's a lovely little character.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41Lots of admirers during the view, lots of little girls
0:31:41 > 0:31:46interested in him, so he's lovely and a good name, as well.
0:31:46 > 0:31:47Estimate on that?
0:31:47 > 0:31:52- £30 to £50.- Well, they paid 22, which I think is not too bad at all.
0:31:52 > 0:31:58Next one is a little Continental white metal trinket box.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01Tell me, what do you think about that?
0:32:01 > 0:32:03Not a great deal, Anita, I'm afraid.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06It's definitely not silver, it is just a white metal.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10I mean, the scenes are decorative on it but there's not a great deal of
0:32:10 > 0:32:12quality to it, I'm afraid to say.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14What about age, David?
0:32:14 > 0:32:15What sort of age do think it is?
0:32:15 > 0:32:18I mean, at the best, early 20th century but, you know,
0:32:18 > 0:32:21it could be as late as perhaps the '70s.
0:32:21 > 0:32:22- What's your estimate?- £15 to £25.
0:32:22 > 0:32:26£15 to £25, that's not too bad an estimate,
0:32:26 > 0:32:30considering the fact that they only paid £7.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32They've done OK there.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35And both Karen and Alan felt that THAT was the
0:32:35 > 0:32:37thing that they would make the most profit on.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39I think they have a great chance.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41Great chance.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45Third item is the pair of aesthetic brass andirons, and these
0:32:45 > 0:32:49have the registration mark, which I think is a rather nice feature,
0:32:49 > 0:32:52and we have it right there in front of us.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54I think they're great. I really rate those.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58- You do? You like them? - What's your estimate on them?
0:32:58 > 0:32:59£50 to £70.
0:32:59 > 0:33:00£50 to £70.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03Well, Alan loved these,
0:33:03 > 0:33:09this was his favourite item and they paid £55 for those.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11There might be a small profit there.
0:33:11 > 0:33:14Small profit. It's looking quite good for the Blues.
0:33:14 > 0:33:16They may not need their bonus buy,
0:33:16 > 0:33:19but we'll go and have a look at it anyway.
0:33:20 > 0:33:22Karen, Alan, how are you both today?
0:33:22 > 0:33:25- Fine, thank you.- Fine, thank you. - Excellent, excellent.
0:33:25 > 0:33:31Well, you guys spent a very wee, small £84.
0:33:31 > 0:33:37You gave our Charlie £216 leftover lolly.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39That is a lot of dosh.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41Charlie, what did you spend it on?
0:33:41 > 0:33:44I really wanted something, Anita, macho, manly.
0:33:44 > 0:33:49Solely to reflect my male mate and his lady.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- No girlie things? - So, no, but also which would tick for the lady, as well.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54There we go, look at that.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56Isn't that magnificent?
0:33:56 > 0:33:58- Aah, a barometer.- Just feel the weight of it, Alan.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Look at the egg-and-dart moulding on this oak,
0:34:01 > 0:34:03this lovely silver clock dial.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06You've got this thermometer gauge here as well, here in the centre,
0:34:06 > 0:34:09and then your barometer dial here, as well.
0:34:09 > 0:34:13It just, I feel, Anita, is, if you'll agree with me, quite magnificent.
0:34:13 > 0:34:14- Does it work?- Say again?
0:34:14 > 0:34:16- Does it work? - I'm not sure about that...
0:34:16 > 0:34:17LAUGHTER
0:34:17 > 0:34:19You're supposed to tap it, aren't you?
0:34:19 > 0:34:21Yeah, well, yes, yeah, but it looks good.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23- It's a big lump of wood.- It is.
0:34:23 > 0:34:26- And how much did you pay for it?- Have a guess.- £50?
0:34:26 > 0:34:28I'd go a bit higher, I'd say probably £75.
0:34:28 > 0:34:32- Anita, what do you think about this? - I think it's a splendid piece.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34I paid £100.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36- And?- And...
0:34:36 > 0:34:39- Big bucks?- Well, big Alan, I hope...
0:34:39 > 0:34:42I would guide it between £80 and £120,
0:34:42 > 0:34:46and I would hope I might hear £130, £140, £150.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49You don't need to make up your mind just now.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52You'll wait until after your first three items have been sold.
0:34:52 > 0:34:54But right now,
0:34:54 > 0:34:59we'll find out what the auctioneer thinks about Charlie's clock barometer.
0:34:59 > 0:35:04This is a piece of traditional auction fare.
0:35:04 > 0:35:08It's a very nice thing, the barometer clock thermometer.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10Do you like it, David?
0:35:10 > 0:35:12I do, I think it will appeal to our buyers.
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Particularly love the carving.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17This egg-and-dart carving is lovely and the condition's great, Anita.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19Er, do we know if it's working?
0:35:19 > 0:35:21We don't know if it's working.
0:35:21 > 0:35:22We haven't tested it.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24- Does it matter?- I don't think so.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27They're fairly simple to put right if there is anything wrong, and it's
0:35:27 > 0:35:29just a wonderful, decorative thing.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31It's a lovely Victorian piece.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33Estimate on that?
0:35:33 > 0:35:35£100 to £150.
0:35:35 > 0:35:40Well, Charles, I think, did very well and he bought it for £100.
0:35:40 > 0:35:41He did very well.
0:35:41 > 0:35:46You're predicting a profit on our clock barometer, David?
0:35:46 > 0:35:48- I am.- You're taking the sale?
0:35:48 > 0:35:51- Yes, I am.- We're in safe hands.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54The room's ready, David,
0:35:54 > 0:35:57so take your seat and let's get the sale underway.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00OK. guys, here we are at the auction.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Have you been at an auction before?
0:36:03 > 0:36:04- No, not before.- Are you excited?
0:36:04 > 0:36:09- Very.- So, we're about to start and your first lot, the scientific weights,
0:36:09 > 0:36:12is coming up now.
