0:00:02 > 0:00:04Welcome to Lincoln, the cathedral city
0:00:04 > 0:00:08that the Vikings and the Romans once called home.
0:00:10 > 0:00:14Together, they transformed Lincoln into an economic powerhouse
0:00:14 > 0:00:17that traded goods all over the world,
0:00:17 > 0:00:20so we're in the right place to do some good deals.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23Let's go Bargain Hunting.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Lincoln's reputation for trading is still alive and well,
0:00:49 > 0:00:51thanks to its huge antiques fair.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54There's something for everyone,
0:00:54 > 0:00:58with deals being done left, right and centre.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00And soon it will be the turn of our teams.
0:01:00 > 0:01:05Now, they've got £300 each and 60 minutes to buy three items
0:01:05 > 0:01:09that, hopefully, will bring them a profit when they go to auction.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11So, let's see what's coming up.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Will the Reds be laughing all the way to the bank?
0:01:16 > 0:01:18- THEY LAUGH - They are very good.- They are funky.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22And do the Blues ever break a sweat?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25You're lazy. Come on, guys, we want a bit of action.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29But who will romp home when their items go under the hammer?
0:01:29 > 0:01:30You're riding a winner here, Charlie.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35- Yes.- £60. You're back into profit, girls.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38But before all that, let's meet our Bargain Hunters.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43Our Red team today are twin sisters and that's Penny and Pat.
0:01:43 > 0:01:48- And our Blues are friends, Michael and Harry. So, hello. ALL:- Hello!
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Hello. Starting with our Reds.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Penny and Pat, you're working at the moment
0:01:53 > 0:01:55but you've got great plans for your retirement.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59Yes, in two years time, I plan to retire and I'm going to buy
0:01:59 > 0:02:02a Dutch barge and cruise down through Europe into the Med.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05- Have you got a boat at the moment? - Yes, this is our fifth boat.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07But the first boat we ever bought,
0:02:07 > 0:02:09we'd never, neither of us, driven a boat in our lives.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Didn't even know how to start, stop or anything
0:02:12 > 0:02:15and we had to ring the bloke up to tell us how to do it.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Any scary moments along the way?
0:02:17 > 0:02:21The last lock we came to, my husband had started getting a bit cocky
0:02:21 > 0:02:25and he decided that he'd get through this lock pretty quickly.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30But I was still on a weir mode and he just went too fast
0:02:30 > 0:02:33- and I fell off the back into the lock.- Oh, no!- Yes.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Pat, you don't mind getting wet, do you?- No, I love getting wet.
0:02:36 > 0:02:40Tell us a bit more about your love of water.
0:02:40 > 0:02:47I'm a diver. I first started when I was 53 and I love it.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- You've dived in some amazing places. - I have.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51I've dived all over the world.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55I've dived Malta, Egypt, but I think my best dive was in England,
0:02:55 > 0:02:57- which is surprising.- Yes!
0:02:57 > 0:03:00But it was down in Cornwall and it was a beautiful dive.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02She took me into this cave,
0:03:02 > 0:03:04all jewelled anemones on the top of the cave.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- It was fantastic, absolutely brilliant.- Fantastic.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Do you take a camera with you?
0:03:09 > 0:03:13Always take a camera, just a normal Sure Shot camera. Pictures.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- Never see it again, so you've got to catch it.- So, any tactics?- Yes.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- I'm going to find something I like. - I'm going to find something- I- like.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23- Then we're going to buy something that's got profit in it.- Yeah.- OK.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Now that's a very interesting tactic,
0:03:26 > 0:03:29but I'm going to turn my attention to the gentlemen.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- It's Michael and Harry and you're friends.- Yeah.- We are.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34But I know for a fact there was a time
0:03:34 > 0:03:37you were anything BUT friends. In fact, you were rivals.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Yeah, we were.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41This is my arch-nemesis, playing for rival football teams.
0:03:41 > 0:03:46We had matches abandoned against each other for dirty tackles.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- His dad was the referee.- Oh, no!
0:03:48 > 0:03:50He pulled his team off the pitch.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53In the end, we signed for the same football team.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57I didn't speak to him for about a month, then he cracked a joke
0:03:57 > 0:04:00and I broke and I laughed and started speaking to him
0:04:00 > 0:04:04- and ever since then, like a house on fire.- The rest is history.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07So, Harry, I believe you're bit of a whizz
0:04:07 > 0:04:10when it comes to doing deals etc,
0:04:10 > 0:04:14cos you use an interesting method at which you excel.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18Yeah, we use rock, paper, scissors to settle a lot of stuff.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- If I remember rightly, it's... TOGETHER:- One, two, three.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26- Yeah, so rock beats scissors.- Rock beats scissors, does it? Right, OK.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29When we're all in the pub, it's a bit of banter
0:04:29 > 0:04:31to see who gets the next round,
0:04:31 > 0:04:34so it's like, try and get a few free drinks out of my mates.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Basically, I will play for the next round and I've got a running joke
0:04:38 > 0:04:40where 85% of the time, I always go rock,
0:04:40 > 0:04:42so I get in their head a bit so they think I'll go rock,
0:04:42 > 0:04:44I go scissors and I just keep beating them.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47It's like taking candy off a baby, really.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50That might come in useful if you're doing a bit of haggling there.
0:04:50 > 0:04:51- Definitely.- And you get to a point
0:04:51 > 0:04:54where you've got to split the difference or whatever,
0:04:54 > 0:04:55- that could be a way forward.- Yeah.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58- What about you, Michael? What's your plan of attack?- Just go big.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- Go big or go home. Win or bust. - Yeah?
0:05:02 > 0:05:06- All eggs, one basket. - All eggs, one basket.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10Well, all eggs, one basket, one life, one Bargain Hunt, I suppose.
0:05:10 > 0:05:15- We're only here once. - OK, so let me give you the money.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19£300 each team. Go and shop till you drop and off you go.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23So, this is a game of tactics, tactics, tactics.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28So, who are stepping out with our teams today?
0:05:30 > 0:05:35He's bold as brass. Richard Madley looks after our ladies in red.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37And he won't stop until he's made a profit.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Charlie Ross joins the Blues.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41- You excited, guys?- Yes, very.- Yeah.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43- Going to be spending?- All of it.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45What are we going to buy today?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48I'd like something owls or certainly animal related.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Anything that catches my eye. Something unusual.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55I'd like something nautical but maybe a nice bit of silver.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Right, teams, your 60 minutes starts now.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01ALARM CLOCK RINGS
0:06:01 > 0:06:03I think I know where we'll start.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Come on then, let's go and see some silver.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09These first few minutes are a golden opportunity to have a nose around
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- but the Reds are diving straight in. - I like the toadstools.
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- Yeah, they are metal. - They certainly are. Hand-crafted.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Oh, I like them! "Tattoos removed."
0:06:19 > 0:06:21I like them, they're good.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23- THEY LAUGH - They are very good.- They are funky!
0:06:23 > 0:06:28- These are not... They're vintage saws.- The saws are old, yeah.
0:06:28 > 0:06:33The saws are old, the decoration is "later". Later.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37- But, hey, they are fun, aren't they? - Catch your eye, don't they?
0:06:37 > 0:06:41They do and they make you smile. I think that's very important.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43- Yes.- They would be quite interesting.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Now, we've got the smaller ones here.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49- There's a bigger one over there, which I like.- I didn't see that one.
0:06:49 > 0:06:50If you're going to go for one,
0:06:50 > 0:06:55- you'd better go for the grandfather of tattoo removals.- Yes.
0:06:55 > 0:07:00So, I guess the saw could be 40 or 50 years old.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02- It might even be a bit older.- Yeah.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05And the decoration could even be done by the owner.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- Probably, cos they all look the same, don't they?- They do indeed.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11So, shall we find out how much they want? Would you like to go and ask?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13- I'll go and ask.- Go on then.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15That would get rid of your "I love Mum" tattoo.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Could you tell us how much the saws are, please?
0:07:17 > 0:07:21The small ones are £15, the large one is £30.
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- Shall we go for that one?- £30, OK. - Is that your best price?
0:07:25 > 0:07:27That is, I'm afraid. That is.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- PENNY:- I think... - Do you like that?- Yeah.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- I like that.- I like that.- I think it's a bit of fun.- I like that.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- It's funny.- In that case, we'd like to buy it.- We'll buy it.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37Thank you very much.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40Blimey, that could be the fastest deal in Bargain Hunt history!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42A minute, come on, and we're 1-0 up.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44This is a result. I like that. Excellent!
0:07:44 > 0:07:48I'm very keen to see how that saw does at the auction.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Over to the Blues and Charlie is sticking to the shopping list.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- What did you say you wanted to buy? - Silver.- Silver.
0:07:55 > 0:07:59Well, there must be 100 or 200 pieces of silver here.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- What about these that are in a pair? - The salts?- Salts.- They're nice.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06- They're fairly standard.- OK. - It would be nice for you
0:08:06 > 0:08:09to find something that perhaps you haven't seen before.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Time to take a look at something else then.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Although there's not much silver in that.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18This is French...I think. It looks French.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22It's an ormolu mount on a marble base
0:08:22 > 0:08:29and I think it was probably made for the export market to England
0:08:29 > 0:08:33because, if you look at the front here, it says so many days...
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Oh, hang on, there we go. "Made in France". Isn't that interesting?
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- Narrows it down a bit. - You'd think if it was made in France
0:08:39 > 0:08:42- it would say something about "Francais".- Yeah.
0:08:42 > 0:08:43- But it's made for export.- Right.
0:08:43 > 0:08:50With regard to its date, it's about 1910, 1920.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Can you see the winder there? It's been soldered up.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56People won't like that. All these things have a price.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58I'll do this in my best French.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01- Combien, madame?- VENDOR IN SCOTTISH ACCENT:- Not got a clue!
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- Said in her best Scottish!- How much?
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- £95.- £95.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07- No.- No?- No.- Nah.- Thank you.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- You heard the enthusiasm of these two, didn't you?- I did!
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Do you like that? "Nah!"
0:09:12 > 0:09:14THEY LAUGH
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Don't waste precious minutes here then, Rosco.
0:09:16 > 0:09:21- The Reds are now trawling the stalls for item number two.- Richard.- Yeah.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Would that be original whale bone or something else?
0:09:25 > 0:09:29No, that would be a copy of a Scrimshaw whale tooth.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32- It was probably made in the last few years.- Yeah.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37- The original would be worth probably thousands.- Thousands.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Therefore, it's priced accordingly.
0:09:39 > 0:09:45Find an original one in a car boot sale and you've done very well!
0:09:45 > 0:09:49OK, teams, you've have just hit the ten-minute mark.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Found anything, Blues?
0:09:51 > 0:09:55- Ship's wheel.- Yeah.- They're very "sailable".- Oh!- Allow me.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59- Oh, dear, I think there's more where that came from.- Look at that!
0:09:59 > 0:10:02It looks like you're having a "wheely" good time there, mate.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06- Oh... I'm not... - Oh, no, I can't bear it.- Oh...
0:10:06 > 0:10:08I'm trying to "steer" him in the right direction.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12- Oh, keep going, keep going! - No, please, that's more than enough!
0:10:12 > 0:10:15- That's a fabulous old ship's wheel. - Isn't it?
0:10:15 > 0:10:19And I should think that's about 1900 in date.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23- I know you want to spend big, boys. - But we haven't probably got enough.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- Do you know how much this is? - A lot more...- Have a guess?
0:10:26 > 0:10:31- I did say £120, but I think more than that.- I think...- £300.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33- I thought about £100.- About £100.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37- This is £350. - That's sunk their hopes of buying it
0:10:37 > 0:10:41but I think these boys won't be rushed into anything,
0:10:41 > 0:10:43despite Charlie's efforts.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45I love that! Do you know what it is?
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- I don't know.- No, I don't know.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51It's a pot. It's a pot! It's an olive pot.
0:10:51 > 0:10:55You put your olives in there and slowly they decompose
0:10:55 > 0:10:58and as they do, the olive oil comes out.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00- Can you see there's a hole in the bottom?- Yeah, I can see that.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Your olive oil comes out the bottom.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05I think what makes it nice is this sort of treacle glaze
0:11:05 > 0:11:07round the top of it.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09It's very loosely done, just to give it a bit of colour.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12- But it would look fabulous in a garden.- Mmm.- It would.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15With plants coming out of it and what have you.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- Don't sound too enthusiastic, guys. - Yeah.- Yeah.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Don't go over the top about this!
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Don't worry, I'm sure they'll go "potty" over something soon.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27We hope! Anyway, it's plain sailing for Mr Madley, though.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Ooh, yeah, it does fit into your nautical theme.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32That would be the name of the ship.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36- And that's probably when it first launched.- How does it sound?
0:11:36 > 0:11:39BELL RINGS CLEARLY
0:11:39 > 0:11:43It works. Shall we just enquire as to how much it is?
0:11:43 > 0:11:46- We haven't got to...- No, we can come back to it.- It could be a bargain.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Exactly, we can still come back. Let's go and ask the owner.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53The ship's bell. A price for it, please.
0:11:53 > 0:11:58- Best on the ship's bell, £120.- £120.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01That's going to be about its top level for an auction.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03- I think that will be its price. - Yeah.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Yeah, I think it's a fair price.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07- It's a fair price but it's the top level.- Exactly.
0:12:07 > 0:12:12- What's the best price? - Very best price is £100.- £95?
0:12:14 > 0:12:17- It's tight, but we'll do it. - Thank you very much.
0:12:17 > 0:12:18What a gentleman!
0:12:18 > 0:12:22The deal has been done. The hands have been shaken. We're out of this!
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- She wanted a bell.- She wanted it. - She wanted nautical.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27- I've always wanted a ship's bell. - Not a lot of choice.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- Yeah, always wanted a ship's bell. - We wanted something nautical.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Now all I want is a ship that goes with it.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36That will cost you a lot more than £95, Penny.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Right, that's it.
0:12:38 > 0:12:412-0 up, 20 minutes down, 40 minutes to go.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45You can take it easy then, Reds. It's the Blues I'm worried about.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47- We're not having much luck, are we? - No.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49- Seen a few things.- In a nutshell.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Hopefully, Lady Luck will cross your path soon
0:12:52 > 0:12:55and while you carry on shopping,
0:12:55 > 0:12:58I'd like to introduce you to a special lady in my life.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05I love coming along to antique fairs like this
0:13:05 > 0:13:07and doing a bit of buying
0:13:07 > 0:13:10and I've brought along a ceramic photographic tile
0:13:10 > 0:13:14that I bought at an antiques fair, believe it or not, in South Africa.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17There are no prizes for guessing the subject.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19It is, yes, Queen Victoria.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23This is one from a series of different subjects.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26You can find Gladstone, you can find Abraham Lincoln,
0:13:26 > 0:13:31you can find all the First World War military personalities
0:13:31 > 0:13:34and, if you're lucky, you can find the Maoris.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36They're a little bit special.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38But more about Queen Victoria,
0:13:38 > 0:13:41because the designer responsible for this
0:13:41 > 0:13:44is a man called George Cartlidge.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48George is also known for being a well-known designer of ceramics.
0:13:48 > 0:13:53But as regards this portrait tile, it's a very clever technique,
0:13:53 > 0:13:55because you need a precision mould
0:13:55 > 0:13:58and it's all about getting your tile absolutely level
0:13:58 > 0:14:02and actually flooding it with what they call a monochromatic glaze.
0:14:02 > 0:14:03It's a very special glaze
0:14:03 > 0:14:09because it changes colour with depth by an infinitesimal amount,
0:14:09 > 0:14:121000th of a millimetre or something like that,
0:14:12 > 0:14:15and you get that wonderful photographic effect.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17There's a nice bit of information on the back.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19I like things that are documented.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21If we turn it over, we'll see
0:14:21 > 0:14:24that this was made by Sherwin and Cotton
0:14:24 > 0:14:27and it gives all the details about being made
0:14:27 > 0:14:31for Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee of 1897.
0:14:31 > 0:14:36So, I had to bring this queen home with me.
0:14:36 > 0:14:42I don't mind telling you I paid £40, or the equivalent of,
0:14:42 > 0:14:44about four years ago for her.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48I saw one recently exchange hands on an internet site
0:14:48 > 0:14:52for somewhere in the region of nearer £200.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54But this queen is going nowhere.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57She lives with me in my office
0:14:57 > 0:15:02and I do my very best to keep her amused at all times.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Back to the shopping
0:15:11 > 0:15:14and there's just under 30 minutes left on the clock.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17That's ample time for the Reds to find their item number three.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20I wonder what will take their fancy.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22On a day like today?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24THEY LAUGH
0:15:24 > 0:15:28But the Blues are yet to splash any cash.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32Was I really put on this planet to be made this harassed?
0:15:32 > 0:15:3535 minutes with two delightful guys
0:15:35 > 0:15:37who have not a clue what they want to buy.
0:15:37 > 0:15:41Seen a few items and then there's always other bargains out there.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43I'm not sure they want to buy anything at all!
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- I don't know what we're going to do. - I'm not going to sweat yet.- Yeah.
0:15:47 > 0:15:50Glad you're feeling relaxed, boys.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53I can't say the same for poor old Charlie.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55What do think of that, guys?
0:15:55 > 0:16:00It's beautifully inlaid with olivewood and satinwood and boxwood.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03It has an enamel dial which has no damage.
0:16:05 > 0:16:10Opens at the top. You can see here there was a maker's name on there.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13Now, I suspect, rather like the clock we saw earlier,
0:16:13 > 0:16:16that the movement is French-made but, again, made for export
0:16:16 > 0:16:21- but put into an English case. This was 80 quid, wasn't it?- Yeah.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25I think that is a handsome clock.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28I can tell that neither of you like it, do you?
0:16:28 > 0:16:32- I don't think they do, Rosco. VENDOR:- Tomorrow that will be £120.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34We weren't planning to be here then
0:16:34 > 0:16:37but it could take this lot that long to buy something.
0:16:38 > 0:16:43People often ask me what I collect and they're often surprised.
0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Globes.- Globes.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50I've been buying these globes probably for the last ten years.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53I've got about 50 of them. For years, my wife said,
0:16:53 > 0:16:56"What on earth are we going to do with those?"
0:16:56 > 0:17:01Then when we moved house, we had a unit, a bookcase unit,
0:17:01 > 0:17:03and we filled it with globes.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05- Different-sized globes. - And they look great.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09But I don't think your team are keen, Richard. Back to the Blues.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Has something finally got their attention?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14- VENDOR:- Hi, guys, I've got a radio here.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17- I'm worried about the lack of expert supervision here.- Original box?
0:17:17 > 0:17:21It's in its original box. 1950s. Perfect working order.
0:17:21 > 0:17:24- That's all right.- No cracks. £60.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28- We've only got £45. - That's a naughty fib.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31You've still got £300 in your pocket.
0:17:31 > 0:17:37- I can't do it for £45 though. - What's your best price?- £55.- £50.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- Meet you in the middle.- £50.
0:17:39 > 0:17:44- Do you want it?- Yeah, I'm happy with that. I'm happy with that, yeah.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Shouldn't you have asked Charlie before shaking this man's hand?
0:17:47 > 0:17:49- CHARLIE:- What have you found, guys?
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- We've just bought a radio. - Have you bought a radio?
0:17:51 > 0:17:54- We thought we don't really need you. - Brilliant! A Bush radio!
0:17:54 > 0:17:56- Of course we need you! - How much was it?- £50.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- VENDOR:- In its original box. - CHARLIE:- You haven't bought it?
0:17:59 > 0:18:02- Sharpen up, guys!- Yeah, yeah.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04- May I look at it, sir? - VENDOR:- You certainly can.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09- Tell us what we've bought. - I'll tell you what you bought.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12- You've bought a 1950s... - VENDOR:- '57.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15- CHARLIE:- Was it '57? - Is it £50-worth?
0:18:15 > 0:18:18- VENDOR:- In its original box. - CHARLIE:- God, it's fab!
0:18:18 > 0:18:22This is the sort of radio I used to have at home.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25- VENDOR:- It works. It's out of my own private collection.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28- CHARLIE:- If you put that on, you'll get the news from the war.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30- VENDOR:- You'll double your money on that.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33- CHARLIE:- It's wonderful. It's in amazing condition.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36- VENDOR:- It's out my own private collection.- But is it worth £50?
0:18:36 > 0:18:39I have to say it's not a bad starting price.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40But they shook on £50.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44Although maybe Harry could use his special talent to get a lower price.
0:18:44 > 0:18:49- Might we do £40 or £60, rock, paper, scissors?- I can't.- You can't.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52- It's got to be £50. - But it could be £60 if you win.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55- CHARLIE:- Have you ever played rock, paper, scissors?- VENDOR:- Yes.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59If you win, we'll buy it for £60, if you lose, we'll buy it for £40.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01That's quite fun, isn't it? I'd like to witness this.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- VENDOR:- Go on. - CHARLIE:- Go on! Love it!
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- I'm scared to watch as well, Michael. TOGETHER:- One, two, three.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10- TOGETHER:- One, two, three.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:19:13 > 0:19:18Harry told me rock always wins, so the Blues get the radio for £40.
0:19:18 > 0:19:22Just two buys to get in the final 15 minutes then.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- The Reds only need one. - What have you seen there?
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- A Doulton figurine?- Yeah.- Young man.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- Fishing? No, cooking his fish. - Cooking his fish.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36With an HN number.
0:19:36 > 0:19:40Now, the HN number will tell you when it was produced
0:19:40 > 0:19:43and, ultimately, the lower the HN number the earlier it is
0:19:43 > 0:19:47and the more valuable it is. What I'm most concerned about is...
0:19:47 > 0:19:50- Damage or if it's been repaired. - Exactly. We want to check...
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Felt round his head.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Check the extremities, that's the important thing.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59- Around his head here.- And his fingers.- And around his frying pan.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01He seems to be in good shape to me.
0:20:01 > 0:20:06- Now, I don't think he's particularly old.- No.- But that doesn't matter.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10It's a collector's market. He is rather charming.
0:20:11 > 0:20:16- Now, he's got a price on of £48. - I was thinking more like £25, £30.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19- Oh, were you?- Yeah.- Right, indeed.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Do you think it might be worth me
0:20:21 > 0:20:25- asking the owner what his friendliest price might be?- Yeah.
0:20:25 > 0:20:31While Richard has a word, Charlie needs the boys to step up a gear.
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Come on, guys. We want a bit of action. Come on. Come on.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37You've got ten minutes to get two lots!
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Now, any news on the figurine?
0:20:40 > 0:20:44I've been to ask the dealer what he said the best price he'd do on it.
0:20:44 > 0:20:49It's marked at £48. He'll give us a discount down to £40.
0:20:49 > 0:20:54As much as I do like it, I would love to get it just under that
0:20:54 > 0:20:56if I could. Do you think that...?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Well, I think I've taken it as far as I can.
0:20:58 > 0:21:03- If you think you can just shave him a couple of pounds...- So, you stay.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07- ..without risking losing the sale. - Yeah.- Let's leave it with you.- OK.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11Good luck, Penny, although I think Rosco needs it more.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16Look, a bit of militaria here. See that old case?
0:21:16 > 0:21:20It's got a strap there to put it on your belt. And what is it?
0:21:20 > 0:21:23First World War compass, I think.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26And in working order... and intact too.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29It doesn't appear to be damaged.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32Quite an interesting piece of history. Excuse me, sir.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34- How much is your military compass? - VENDOR: £55.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37- We have got about five minutes left. - 40 quid.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41- 40 quid.- VENDOR: All right, 40 quid. - Yeah, 40 quid.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45- Are you happy?- Yeah, yeah. - Go on, buy it! Buy it!
0:21:46 > 0:21:49You may have got your second buy but there's no time to waste.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53You've five minutes and counting. Try and keep up.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55No need for Penny to run. Looks like she's done a deal.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58- £38.- £38!- Well done.
0:21:58 > 0:22:02- Well done. Excellent. - That's our third item.- We're there.
0:22:02 > 0:22:07- I'm happy.- Third item, over, done and sold. Fantastic.- Well done.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- You're happy?- Really happy. - You're happy?- Very.- I'm happy.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- How about a nice cup of tea? - How about let's go to the pub?
0:22:12 > 0:22:14All right, the pub!
0:22:14 > 0:22:16THEY LAUGH
0:22:16 > 0:22:19I know Charlie will need a drink after all this sprinting!
0:22:20 > 0:22:22The boys not so much.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25And with time nearly up, I think Rosco's come back for the clock.
0:22:25 > 0:22:30Oh, glad to see you've turned up, boys. Don't bust a gut.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Don't rush yourselves.- The wizard arrives precisely when he needs to.
0:22:33 > 0:22:38Now, you're going to see a master at work here. This was £80, wasn't it?
0:22:38 > 0:22:43- Yes.- But you'll take £70 off me cos you've known me so long.- No, sir.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- £75 and we've got a deal.- Done.
0:22:46 > 0:22:52- That was a bit sharp.- Cheers.- To say I'm relieved is an understatement.
0:22:52 > 0:22:53ALARM CLOCK RINGS
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Teams, your 60 minutes are up.
0:22:56 > 0:22:58..Such a nerve-racking hour in my life with you two.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02- You are cool dudes, aren't you? - I've been pretty laidback.- Yeah.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05- PRETTY laidback? Nevertheless... - But we got there in the end.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09So, let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13I'm hoping this is going to be used as advertised. £30 paid.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19The ship's bell was £95
0:23:19 > 0:23:23but will it leave the ladies drowning in a profit?
0:23:23 > 0:23:28And the River Boy figurine from Royal Doulton was theirs for £38.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31Let's hope it makes a splash at the auction.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36- Tell me your favourite buy. - Mine was the bell.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40- The bell, yes.- And mine was the little Doulton figure.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44What's the one item you think is going to make the most at auction?
0:23:44 > 0:23:48- The saw.- The saw.- You both agree on that, do you?- The saw.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52- So, how much money did you spend in total?- £163.
0:23:52 > 0:23:56So, by my reckoning, you should be placing, in my palm, £137.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- That's correct. There you go.- OK.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02Richard, been doing a bit of homework there, have you?
0:24:02 > 0:24:06Well, they're a very well-travelled pair of girls here
0:24:06 > 0:24:10and I think I might have to venture overseas to find something
0:24:10 > 0:24:14that will satisfy you, so I've got my eye on something.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16- Watch this space.- OK.
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Well, let's remind ourselves
0:24:18 > 0:24:21how the Blues have been spending THEIR money today.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24Harry conquered the dealer at rock, paper, scissors
0:24:24 > 0:24:29to get a decent discount on this 1950s radio. £40 paid.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33The boys lacked direction during their shop,
0:24:33 > 0:24:37so maybe they should have bought one of these a bit earlier.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40The brass compass was £40.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42And time had nearly run out
0:24:42 > 0:24:45when the team paid £75 for this Victorian clock.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Let's hope it hands them a profit when it goes under the hammer.
0:24:49 > 0:24:54Well, gentlemen, you did take some time to warm up today, yes?
0:24:54 > 0:24:56- Yeah, took us a while.- Mmm-hmm.
0:24:56 > 0:24:59Everything we looked at was too expensive.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02We were just pretty laidback. We weren't feeling the pressure.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04These lads could chill for Britain, couldn't they?
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Crikey, I actually felt like an ice block at the end of it.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11It was just unbelievable and they made me run to get the last lot.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14We were down to a minute and I said, "Sprint, you young lads."
0:25:14 > 0:25:16"No, we'll come along, Rosco, you do the running."
0:25:16 > 0:25:19- We were perfectly on time, perfectly on time.- OK, fellas.
0:25:19 > 0:25:23- Tell me, favourite object that you bought today?- Bush radio.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25- The radio in its original box.- OK.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29Which is the one you think is going to deliver the biggest profit?
0:25:29 > 0:25:33- The same.- Profit, probably the Bush radio.- The radio again.- Oh, right.
0:25:33 > 0:25:37- Listen, how much did you spend? - £155.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41- So, you're going to give me £145. - I can do, yeah.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43- There you go, Charlie. £145.- Thank you, Eric.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45You've got your work cut out here, haven't you?
0:25:45 > 0:25:48I'm under pressure here cos these guys, I think,
0:25:48 > 0:25:50have cemented the golden gavel.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Charlie, you thrive on pressure, don't you? OK.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Well, while Charlie goes off to shop, we're off to the auction.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06So, we find ourselves in the esteemed auction house
0:26:06 > 0:26:09of Golding, Young & Mawer, here in Lincoln,
0:26:09 > 0:26:12and joined by a stalwart of this programme over the years,
0:26:12 > 0:26:16- Colin Young.- Good to see you, Eric. - It's good to be here, Colin.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19- Thank you for having us and straight down to business.- Yep.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Our Red team today is Penny and Pat.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24They've obviously got a sense of humour
0:26:24 > 0:26:27cos they start off with a vintage-style saw
0:26:27 > 0:26:31- that I think has been decorated at a slightly later date.- Mmm.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34But it does raise something of a smile, does it not?
0:26:34 > 0:26:35It does. I think it's a great thing.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38If you had that in the front of your tattoo shop,
0:26:38 > 0:26:41I'm sure you'd have no customers whatsoever.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43It's a bit of fun though, isn't it?
0:26:43 > 0:26:47Yes, but that said, they paid £30 for it.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Yeah, seems a bit heavy, to be honest.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54£10 to £20 is where I've gone, just out of humour.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57Fair enough. Well, let's see where we go.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01Next on their shopping list was the ship's bell,
0:27:01 > 0:27:04dated 1949, with the name Claridge.
0:27:04 > 0:27:08These things don't come cheap, as far as Penny and Pat are concerned,
0:27:08 > 0:27:11cos they rolled out £95 for that.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15- That seems very heavy.- Mmm-hmm. - And so does the price.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17£30 to £50 would be my estimate.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20I have sold quite a lot of bells over the years
0:27:20 > 0:27:23and I think that's probably going to see a little bit of pain.
0:27:23 > 0:27:27OK, all right. Well, let me move into my comfort zone.
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- Let me move into the world of ceramics.- Right.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33And a household name, when it comes to figurines,
0:27:33 > 0:27:36- has got to be Royal Doulton. - Yes.- River Boy.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38An endearing little thing,
0:27:38 > 0:27:42possibly the sort of thing that your aunt and your grandma used to buy.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45I'm not sure where the market is today.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47But without being on a downer,
0:27:47 > 0:27:52- it's nowhere near where it was 25 years ago.- No, it's not.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55I mean, I think it's a sweet little figure there.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58The strange thing is, obviously very famous for the crinoline ladies
0:27:58 > 0:28:02and all of those other types of wares and some animals
0:28:02 > 0:28:06but, essentially, this isn't the key area that's most desirable.
0:28:06 > 0:28:09But, nevertheless, I think it's a great-looking thing.
0:28:09 > 0:28:13- They paid £38. The estimate is? - £25 to £40.- OK.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16On balance, it doesn't look like the mathematics
0:28:16 > 0:28:18are working in favour of the girls here,
0:28:18 > 0:28:21but let's see what Richard Madley can come up with
0:28:21 > 0:28:23when it comes to the bonus buy.
0:28:23 > 0:28:28Penny and Pat, you went out there and you've gone and spent £163.
0:28:28 > 0:28:34But that left Mr Richard Madley here with the best part of £137 to spend.
0:28:34 > 0:28:40- Richard, you boldly went and bought what?- I went a long way from here.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43I went to...China.
0:28:43 > 0:28:49A Chinese double gourd sang de boeuf vase.
0:28:49 > 0:28:51- Sounds very posh.- It does. - Double gourd - two nuts.
0:28:51 > 0:28:54Sang de boeuf, that blood red.
0:28:54 > 0:28:58And underneath, the mark, the Chien Lung period,
0:28:58 > 0:29:00so an 18th-century mark.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04- But don't believe all that you see. - No.- No.
0:29:04 > 0:29:08So, it's later and I will tell you, it's a lot later. But...
0:29:08 > 0:29:12- How much is it worth?- I gave £30 for it.- Yeah, we'd go with that.- Yeah.
0:29:12 > 0:29:14- You're happy? - That's all right, yeah.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19- Listen, you can't go wrong, can you? It's a lovely shape.- Yeah.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23And I tell you something, in the world of the Chinese,
0:29:23 > 0:29:26- red is a lucky colour.- Mmm.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28But the question is,
0:29:28 > 0:29:31is this double gourd vase going to double its money?
0:29:31 > 0:29:33That's why we're going to ask the auctioneer.
0:29:34 > 0:29:40So, he came up with a Chinese double gourd vase,
0:29:40 > 0:29:42- covered in a sang de boeuf-type glaze...- Yeah.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45- ..with an interesting mark on the base.- Right.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49Character mark on there, a good seal.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52That's going to put it as Chien Lung period.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56But, unfortunately, as I'm sure we'd all appreciate,
0:29:56 > 0:30:01it's probably not of that period. The condition of it is immaculate.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03It's more of less come out of the kiln,
0:30:03 > 0:30:06really within the last five years, I would imagine.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Having said that, a very stylish thing
0:30:09 > 0:30:12and an original piece from, say, the 18th century,
0:30:12 > 0:30:15you'd be looking at many thousands of pounds.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19But for something like this, £30 to £50, £25 to £40.
0:30:19 > 0:30:22I'd like to buy that for £30, you know,
0:30:22 > 0:30:25- so I can understand why Richard went for that, big time.- Yeah.
0:30:25 > 0:30:30Well, moving the bonus buy to one side, let's move on to the Blues.
0:30:30 > 0:30:35We start off with a 1950s Bush brown and cream Bakelite radio
0:30:35 > 0:30:37in its original box.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41- It's got a sort of art deco feel to it, has it not?- It has.
0:30:41 > 0:30:45It's that deco renaissance that came through the 1950s,
0:30:45 > 0:30:48of course using, again, the traditional materials
0:30:48 > 0:30:50that were used in the early deco period as well.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53Just a really great stylish thing
0:30:53 > 0:30:56and to have the original box with it as well really does add...
0:30:56 > 0:30:59It certainly adds interest. Now, whether it adds value,
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- I'm not quite sure. - They paid £40 for it.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05I think we're probably going to be trailing a bit behind that
0:31:05 > 0:31:09- but we've placed an estimate of £25 to £40 on it.- OK.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11I've got a good feeling about that one.
0:31:11 > 0:31:16Next is a military issue brass MK III compass
0:31:16 > 0:31:20- with its original canvas case. - A good thing.
0:31:20 > 0:31:25There's plenty and plenty of reproductions out there and copies.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27- They're worth £5, £10 apiece.- Right.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30With this one, I think a fairly standard model
0:31:30 > 0:31:33that you are looking at, easily £25 to £40.
0:31:33 > 0:31:39- They paid £40 again for this.- OK, yeah. Perhaps just a little steep.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42- OK.- But we'll see.- In with a chance in with a chance.- Yeah.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46And then they got their late Victorian
0:31:46 > 0:31:48mahogany and marquetry mantel clock.
0:31:48 > 0:31:52Beautiful mahogany, nice marquetry on there,
0:31:52 > 0:31:55with a good mixture of woods in there of satinwood.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58There's also that really nice green tinge of harewood
0:31:58 > 0:32:00which is a stained sycamore.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03And it's a great-looking thing.
0:32:03 > 0:32:08It's a shame there's a bit of wear on the dial but, nevertheless,
0:32:08 > 0:32:13- it's a good solid lot, I would say. - They paid £75 for it.- OK.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16I would go with £50 to £80 as an estimate,
0:32:16 > 0:32:18which sort of straddles it but, unfortunately,
0:32:18 > 0:32:23- straddles it a long way at the lower end rather than the higher.- OK.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Well, let's have a look at the bonus buy
0:32:25 > 0:32:28and see what Charlie came up with.
0:32:28 > 0:32:31So, the Blue team, Michael and Harry.
0:32:31 > 0:32:35I see that you spent £155
0:32:35 > 0:32:39and, Charlie, you had the princely sum of £145 to go out and spend.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41- I did. - And what did you come up with?
0:32:41 > 0:32:44To be perfectly honest, I was so terrified by these two boys.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47They are so confident they are going to win a golden gavel,
0:32:47 > 0:32:50- I thought, "I don't want to ruin this for them."- No.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54- I just thought one word.- Yes. - "Profit".- OK.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57It's a cheroot holder case.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59This is probably a male one.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01This would have been an amber holder, probably,
0:33:01 > 0:33:03into which you put your cheroot.
0:33:03 > 0:33:07It's solid silver, it's Birmingham, it's 1916
0:33:07 > 0:33:10and, I have to say, it wasn't overly expensive.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13- What's it worth, guys?- 20 quid? - 20 quid?
0:33:13 > 0:33:17- Paid 15!- That's a bargain.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19- All right, boys, what do you think of it?- I'm a fan.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23I think £15's a steal and I think it will make profit.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26It fits the mould of getting profit off every item, definitely.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29If you don't go with this bonus buy, you are bonkers!
0:33:29 > 0:33:31Well, fortunately,
0:33:31 > 0:33:34our auctioneer can spot anybody who's bonkers from 100 yards,
0:33:34 > 0:33:37and on that basis, let's see if he agrees
0:33:37 > 0:33:40that £15 was a pretty good buy.
0:33:40 > 0:33:45So, here it is. It's a silver cheroot holder, dated 1916.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48- What do you make of that? - It's a bit of a case, isn't it?
0:33:48 > 0:33:53A useful little trinket in silver and so, 1916, George V,
0:33:53 > 0:33:57and, as for value, I suppose £25 to £40.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00I couldn't see it being anything more useful than that
0:34:00 > 0:34:03because, to be honest, there's not much of a use for it today.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06No, when was the last time anybody offered you a cheroot?
0:34:06 > 0:34:10It's got to be quite a good bonus buy, that,
0:34:10 > 0:34:14- because he only paid £15 for it. - Seems OK.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16- So, are you taking the stand today, Colin?- I am indeed, Eric.
0:34:16 > 0:34:20We're in a safe pair of hands, so no pressure, Colin.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23AUCTIONEER CALLS OUT BIDS INDISTINCTLY
