0:00:02 > 0:00:06MUSIC: Last Of The Summer Wine theme song
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Hello. I'm in Wetherby, in Yorkshire,
0:00:11 > 0:00:15and Edinburgh is 198 miles in that direction.
0:00:15 > 0:00:20London is 198 miles in that direction.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22And just over there is Wetherby Racecourse,
0:00:22 > 0:00:26where there just happens to be an antique and collectors' fair today.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30Well, I know where I'd rather be. Let's go Bargain Hunting!
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Wetherby's racecourse is brimming with antiques and collectables.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59There are outside pitches
0:00:59 > 0:01:01and there's even more to choose from when you head inside.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Well, you know what our teams have got to do.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07They've got £300 and just one hour
0:01:07 > 0:01:09to buy three items to take off to auction.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12So, let's see if the going's good today.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16The Reds debate whether they're onto a winner...
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- If it takes a tumble, then... - I will never let you forget.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23..whilst the Blue team are hedging their bets.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25There's a lot of negatives...
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- "But I do really like it." - ..but I really like it.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30But who'll be the first past the post at the auction -
0:01:30 > 0:01:31the Reds...
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- Some more? Any more? - GAVEL BANGS
0:01:34 > 0:01:35..or the Blues?
0:01:35 > 0:01:38THEY LAUGH
0:01:38 > 0:01:40And guess how many medals are on display here
0:01:40 > 0:01:42at the Green Howards Museum?
0:01:42 > 0:01:46That's absolutely breathtaking. How many medals are in here?
0:01:46 > 0:01:48- About 3,500.- Really?
0:01:48 > 0:01:52Well, that's all for later. Now, let's meet today's teams.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55For the Red team, we have Patsy and her son Henry.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58And for the Blue team, we have Philip and his daughter Zoe.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- Hello, everyone. ALL:- Hello! - Lovely to see you.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Now, you two, whose idea was it to come on this show?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Well, it was my idea, but I didn't tell Henry.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09We have watched the show in the past.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11We really do like antiques.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Have you got the same sort of tastes in antiques?
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- Similar. Yeah, definitely similar. We both like silver.- Yes?
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I like Art Deco. I like Arts & Crafts.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Yeah.- I like boxes and containers of anything.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24- You're a bit of a Viking lover, aren't you?- Yeah.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27The Viking age is the period I want to do my dissertation on.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29- You're studying at York, aren't you?- Yeah.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31I've always wanted to do history.
0:02:31 > 0:02:37Hopefully, at the end of my degree, I'll go into an MA, a PhD,
0:02:37 > 0:02:39become a lecturer, then become a professor.
0:02:39 > 0:02:40I've got a 30-year plan.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Prime minister! ALL LAUGH
0:02:43 > 0:02:46And then end up retiring to write historical fiction.
0:02:46 > 0:02:47Now, you used to teach, Patsy.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50So, what do you do now you're not in the classroom?
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Well, for a while, I was a guide at Chatsworth,
0:02:52 > 0:02:54which was absolutely delightful.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56A beautiful house. Lots of lovely treasures.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59I'm not sure you'll see the sort of antiques today
0:02:59 > 0:03:01- that you saw at Chatsworth. - Maybe not, no. Maybe not.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03But also I do try to do a bit of up-cycling,
0:03:03 > 0:03:06buying bits of furniture that need a little bit of TLC,
0:03:06 > 0:03:08making them, and then passing them on,
0:03:08 > 0:03:11hopefully at a profit, but very often not.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13- What about tactics? You're going to get on well?- Yeah.- Yes.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16It's very democratic, but I'm in charge.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18- Yeah.- That's the way it seems to work.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Where have I heard that before?
0:03:20 > 0:03:24Anyway, we're really going to enjoy watching you shop together.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Now, you Blues, Phil and Zoe,
0:03:26 > 0:03:28somebody tells me that you think you can do better
0:03:28 > 0:03:31than anybody that's ever been on this programme before.
0:03:31 > 0:03:32I think that might be a mistake.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Dad always thinks he's going to be better than everybody else,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37and that he goes better than everybody else.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39I'm going to prove him wrong, though, today.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43You're going to prove just how badly you can do.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Phil, you've got an interesting job, haven't you?
0:03:45 > 0:03:47It allows you, really, carte blanche
0:03:47 > 0:03:49to get up to all sorts of mischief, doesn't it?
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Oh, it does. I'm a science technician at a secondary school,
0:03:53 > 0:03:56so setting up experiments, dealing with young people.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58Give me an exciting experiment example.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01The methane bubbles, I think, is the most dramatic-looking.
0:04:01 > 0:04:06You just pass gas through washing-up liquid and water, and it...
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Don't try this at home.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10No, that's right. Don't try it at home, no.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11And then you ignite it.
0:04:11 > 0:04:15So, you then have fire hands like a superhero.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17- But you don't get burnt? - No, you don't get burnt,
0:04:17 > 0:04:20- if you do it correctly.- Now, Zoe, you're a teacher, aren't you?
0:04:20 > 0:04:22I am. I'm a primary school teacher.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24I'm in charge of science, so I get that from my dad.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26But we're a bit younger, so we can't do fire hands.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28No. Now, what about antiques?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31- Do you have any sort of tastes, any leanings?- No.
0:04:31 > 0:04:36- Definitely not.- Sounds like we've got just the right contestants here.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39- I think you'll probably win. - We probably will.- We hope so.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40Have you ever been to an auction?
0:04:40 > 0:04:42We haven't been to an antique auction,
0:04:42 > 0:04:45- but we've been to livestock auctions where we went...- Dad!
0:04:45 > 0:04:47- I'm telling the story. - HE LAUGHS
0:04:47 > 0:04:49We went to buy a lamb,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52and, unfortunately, I got a little bit mixed up
0:04:52 > 0:04:54with the lot numbers.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- He couldn't see in the ring. - Couldn't see in the ring.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00We could, but he wasn't up for listening to us.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01HE LAUGHS
0:05:01 > 0:05:04And we ended up buying a very old sheep.
0:05:04 > 0:05:09The most enormous and elderly ram we've ever seen.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Were they roughly similar in price?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- They're a lot cheaper. - We thought we'd had a bargain.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- That's why I bought him - cos he was so cheap. - Didn't turn out quite so well.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19- So, have you got any tactics? - Yeah, spend the money.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21That's what we like!
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Well, I'm sure you'll have a great, great time, both teams.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- Now, if you're going shopping, what will you need? ALL:- The money!
0:05:26 > 0:05:29You're absolutely right, and I am the man.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33- You are allowed £300.- Thank you.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38And you are allowed £300. Henry, are you going to be the banker?
0:05:38 > 0:05:42- I might as well be.- Marvellous. Well, off you go. Have a great shop.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- Thank you.- Thank you.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48We have mother and son and father and daughter,
0:05:48 > 0:05:50but who will win?
0:05:50 > 0:05:53All our teams need now are their experts.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57It's Paul Laidlaw for the Reds.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01And on drums for the Blues, it's Phil Serrell.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05So, teams, what's the plan?
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Patsy, Henry, what are we looking for today?
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Well, I like glass, I like Arts & Crafts.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Looking for an undiscovered diamond ring.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- What are you going to buy? - I like animals.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- Preferably something with a dog on it.- Right.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Hopefully, some militaria,
0:06:20 > 0:06:23so badges, uniform, that sort of thing.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25I'm interested in Masonic items.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Freemasonry? - Freemasonry and maybe a globe.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Right, teams, your time starts now!
0:06:32 > 0:06:33Let's go and see what we can find.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Let's go find those bargains!
0:06:35 > 0:06:40Good luck, teams. And it seems the Reds are right on the case.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43It's a lovely leather briefcase, though. What do you think, Henry?
0:06:43 > 0:06:46- Um...- It's not a very old one, is it?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- It's going to be '30s. - Is it?- It's got age, yeah.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53£24. Like, it's good at the moment.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56It's a thing, but does it have the oomph that we want?
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Possibly not.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Find something with a bit of oomph, then, Reds.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Plenty of time on the clock.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06It appears that the Blues are on the case, too.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09£90, that one. How old is that?
0:07:09 > 0:07:11I would think that's probably between the wars.
0:07:11 > 0:07:13You could date it from that. It might even be '50s.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15But I quite like the leather strap on it.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- How much is that one? - You seem to be unimpressed.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21It's not a dog, and it's not a globe.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24And it's OK, but I don't love it.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Looks like Zoe wants to stick to her plan.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31How are the Reds motoring along?
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- This one. Is there any life in those ones, do you think?- Bumper badges.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- There's a market for them. - Collectable, to a degree.- Yeah.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39To a degree - I think you've got it there.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41You're all over this, Henry!
0:07:41 > 0:07:42I will just keep quiet
0:07:42 > 0:07:45because you are coming out with the pearls at the moment.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47I don't see any treasure. What about you, Patsy?
0:07:47 > 0:07:49- Anything recognisable yet? - Nothing, really. No.- Onwards.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52- Retreat.- Right.- Right. - Cartwheel and out of here.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53Move on, then, Reds.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57But have the Blues found something on their shopping list?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59What does it for you about globes, then?
0:07:59 > 0:08:03If we had positioned it like this, we can only see ocean.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05Then there's the North Pole and the South Pole.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09There's deserts. And then, if you're interested in football
0:08:09 > 0:08:11and you want a decent football team,
0:08:11 > 0:08:15you've only got Barcelona, Real Madrid...
0:08:15 > 0:08:17- And...?- BOTH:- Burnley!
0:08:17 > 0:08:19There's only three places to live in the world.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22And our first choice is Burnley.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24I think that says it all for me.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26- Thank you very much!- Thank you.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Well, that's a different use of a globe,
0:08:28 > 0:08:31but it looks like it's a no-buy for the Blues.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33But will this be a buy for the Reds?
0:08:33 > 0:08:35What is this?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37That's a little celluloid...
0:08:37 > 0:08:40- Is it a compact or a purse? - It's a compact.- It's an evening bag.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Press the button and do that.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47So, we're looking into the 1920s.
0:08:47 > 0:08:51It's an early plastic. An unusual form.
0:08:51 > 0:08:56It's essentially a little purse. It has a hanging cord and a tassel.
0:08:56 > 0:08:57- Very glamorous.- Oh, yeah?
0:08:57 > 0:09:00And then, to the front, on this black front,
0:09:00 > 0:09:04we've got a bejewelled swag, technically.
0:09:04 > 0:09:05Very smart indeed.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09- What's the best price you could do on that?- £60.- 60.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- Help us.- 50 quid.
0:09:11 > 0:09:16- 50?- I love it. A lot of money for a bit of plastic, though.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Seriously, that's your first price - 50 quid.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22- What's your last price? - My last price is 45.- Is it?
0:09:22 > 0:09:24You're not going to get a three at the beginning of that?
0:09:24 > 0:09:2545, that's it.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28- 40 quid. There you are, sold. - All right, thank you.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Seemed like a good idea.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- You struck there.- I know!- The hand came out. Your mum was there.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34- I can't believe I did that! - It was a deal.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39- I love it! Right.- Right!- Onwards? - We've got one in the bag.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Let's get the second and the third now. Come on.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44- Don't lose the momentum. - Here we go. Onwards. Ever onwards.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46Yes, keep going, Reds.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Mum said she'd take charge, and she did.
0:09:50 > 0:09:54One item down in just ten minutes. How's it going with the Blues, Phil?
0:09:54 > 0:09:58- See, I'm conscious we haven't bought anything yet.- BOTH:- No.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00I don't like anything. That's the problem.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02Oh, dear, Blues.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04Reds, is anything setting you on fire?
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- Is your tank expensive? - I've got 140 on it.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09- Ah, it's a nice thing.- French.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Is it a First World War one? It's too specialist.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15It is a nice thing, but it's too specialist. Thank you.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Bad luck, Reds.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19Things might be looking up for the Blues with these metal boxes.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23- How old are these boxes? - They're 19th-century, aren't they?
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- Yes, I would say so. Yeah. - And they're Continental.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27- Are they French?- French, yes.
0:10:27 > 0:10:31- And what would be the best on either of these?- 24 on that.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33- What about the other one?- 32.- 32.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35- ZOE:- I think Dad likes that.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37I like these boxes because they've got a use.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40I like the big one cos it's got a big, red interior to it.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43- What do you think, Zoe? - Do you like it?- I like it.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45So, the thing for you, then, is the bigger French box - £32.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- Is that a def? - That is definitely.- Right, OK.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51- Unanimous?- Unanimous. - Yes, I think we've got a deal.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54- Shake the man's hand.- Thank you. - There you are.- Thank you.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- Right, we haven't got time to waste. Come on.- Right.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Finally, the Blues have found something they like.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04With 25 minutes on the clock, it's one-all.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Now, the Reds haven't moved, but what's this, Paul?
0:11:07 > 0:11:12That, undeniably, is aluminium
0:11:12 > 0:11:16and it is rather crude, and a prosthetic nose.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18We can see little holes where a cord attached it.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20If we are looking at military wounds,
0:11:20 > 0:11:22we'd need to be looking at the Great War.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25We're looking at a medical collectable,
0:11:25 > 0:11:28and that is a big field.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31- Yes.- From instruments to prosthetics,
0:11:31 > 0:11:33there's a market there.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36This does have merit, and if we take away from it the fact that
0:11:36 > 0:11:38it used to be part of someone's face...
0:11:40 > 0:11:44Something tells me Patsy is not struck.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46I quite like this, as a piece.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48- Do you? Your choice.- Henry, we need to work on your mother, I suspect.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51- Yeah, if it's your choice... - It's me and you at the moment.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54- Well, in that case, you should do the negotiations.- Right, OK.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Is it 30 at the moment?- So, 30.
0:11:57 > 0:12:03Is there any possibilities of going somewhat lower than 30?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05It needs to be 30, really, but 28.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Don't mind me asking, and I'm not going to go there again,
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- 25 - round number. - Yeah.- It needs to be 28.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12- It needs to be 28 and I'm cool with that.- OK, it needs to be 28.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14But it's a team thing. What do we think?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Well, I'm going to let Henry choose if that's what...
0:12:16 > 0:12:19Considering it's exceedingly rare, this sort of thing,
0:12:19 > 0:12:22- if it takes a tumble, then... - I will never let you forget.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- You've got a deal, then. Take it.- OK.- Thank you.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Really interesting.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28I tell you what - you couldn't have scripted
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- this little shopping spree thus far, could you?- No.- No.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34Right then, I think we're doing dammed well,
0:12:34 > 0:12:36but I tell you what - we've got a healthy budget left.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38- Onwards.- Yeah.- Onwards and pretty.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- Pretty?- Can we do pretty? Can we do frivolous?- Who wants to do pretty?
0:12:41 > 0:12:45- Let's do pretty and frivolous. - I thought you were talking about me for a second.- No, not at all. No.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48Pretty and frivolous, and 35 minutes in which to find it, Reds.
0:12:48 > 0:12:52Blues, any idea what your second item might be?
0:12:52 > 0:12:55At the minute, not much is jumping out,
0:12:55 > 0:12:56but I do like the look of it.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- What would you use it for? - Umbrellas.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02- Is there a hole in the bottom?- No.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04Sometimes, these rot through, don't they?
0:13:04 > 0:13:07- What's it made out of? - Well, it's just copper, isn't it?
0:13:07 > 0:13:09- So, would that be...? - It's Continental, I would think.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11- Are these French? Where's he gone?- From Belgium.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14They're Belgian. What's the best on that?
0:13:14 > 0:13:18- Which one are you looking at?- We're looking at the cheap copper one.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19I'll do one for 30.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23- That's cheap.- Do you want to buy it or do you want to just walk round?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- I want to walk round and remember it.- Right.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Would you be prepared to put it away for half an hour?
0:13:28 > 0:13:31- Yeah, no problem. - Half an hour. Half an hour.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34- Thank you.- No bother. - Come on. Come on.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37One for the back burner, Blues.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40So, Patsy, has anything pretty turned up indoors?
0:13:40 > 0:13:45I've just spotted some very pretty silver inkwells.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47- About inkwells... - SHE LAUGHS
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- What do you feel...? - "What do you think about inkwells?"
0:13:50 > 0:13:53What do you feel about inkwells as a possible buy?
0:13:53 > 0:13:55There's a lot of good things here.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58- Whether there's a good thing that you can buy...- Yes.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01..at trade remains to be seen.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03What do you fancy? What's taken your fancy?
0:14:03 > 0:14:05- Well, those two are lovely. - Little capstan inkwell
0:14:05 > 0:14:09- and then a little silver-mounted, cut-glass specimen.- Yes.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11How much is it?
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- £345.- Aw.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16- It is beautiful, though. - It is beautiful,
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- and good things cost! - SHE LAUGHS
0:14:19 > 0:14:21- Right.- But it's out of our reach.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23- OK.- Can we deal with the disappointment?
0:14:23 > 0:14:25- I can deal with the disappointment. - Just about.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28- Can we deal with it while shopping?- Yes, OK!
0:14:28 > 0:14:30I think that was a hint to move on, Reds.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Back with the Blues,
0:14:32 > 0:14:35and what's brought a smile to Zoe's face?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Do you like him? - I just think he's gorgeous.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41I don't think he's very practical, but I really like him.
0:14:41 > 0:14:43- And what about you, Phil? - Well, I'm a bit undecided.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46I think he's going to be very heavy to move.
0:14:46 > 0:14:51- How much is your doggy, please? - 225.- 225?- Yeah.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Is that the very, very, very, very best on him?
0:14:53 > 0:14:57- Erm...200.- 200?- 200's the best.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59You've bought the box for 32, haven't you?
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- Yeah.- So, you've got that for 232.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05- So, we could afford that. - We could.- You could, you could.
0:15:05 > 0:15:06I tell you what I think -
0:15:06 > 0:15:09you're relying on someone at the auction, just by chance,
0:15:09 > 0:15:12being there and being able to move it.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15- Yeah.- Can you do any more on the price, my love?
0:15:15 > 0:15:18Cos we like it, but it's going to cost 50 quid to move the thing.
0:15:18 > 0:15:23- I will ask if he can do any better. - Yeah, if he could do 150...- Right.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25- He'll come to 150.- Right. What do you want to do?
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Do want to hang onto it? You want to buy it.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30I think we're going to make a massive loss, but I still want it.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33And there's a lot of negatives...
0:15:33 > 0:15:35- "But I do really like it!" - ..but I really like it.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37I think we could probably afford to have a look round
0:15:37 > 0:15:39because I don't think anybody else is going to take him
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- any time quickly.- Keep it for 15 minutes for us, all right?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45- Thank you very much. - Thank you.- Right, come on.
0:15:45 > 0:15:46Do you know what? I think she really likes it.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48I really like it.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52So, the dog joins the milk churn on the back burner.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55Blues, I thought you wanted to spend some money!
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Reds, are you going to be frivolous with yours?
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Be very careful, it's quite fragile.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04So, what we've got there is a timepiece movement
0:16:04 > 0:16:07about the size of a wristwatch
0:16:07 > 0:16:12set within a wooden frame but that is faced with silver.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15- Right, it's got a hallmark. - And it's polygonal.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Circular face. White enamel, by the looks of things.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20Now, what's the question we're going to ask
0:16:20 > 0:16:22- about any timepiece or clock? - Is it working?
0:16:22 > 0:16:26It was working yesterday. I haven't wound it up today.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- May I?- Yes, please do.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31That there is a poxy resin, or a glue,
0:16:31 > 0:16:33because it's been repaired.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37Do I think that's catastrophic? No.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Do I think it helps?- No.- No.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Tiny little bit of damage to the enamel.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Did you spot that? - Yes, at the number eight.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45£40.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47Could you really hack into that price for us,
0:16:47 > 0:16:49or is that too much to ask?
0:16:49 > 0:16:53- It's at 40.- How about 20?
0:16:53 > 0:16:57- HENRY:- I mean, it's small, it's pretty, but are we willing to,
0:16:57 > 0:17:01for that flake of enamel and that little bit of issues with repairs,
0:17:01 > 0:17:04- are we willing to...? - Would you take 15?
0:17:04 > 0:17:09No. I don't think I even bought it for 15.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11I don't think you need to go that far,
0:17:11 > 0:17:15- but it's over to you guys. - Can I have another little turn?
0:17:16 > 0:17:17- It is very beautiful.- I love the...
0:17:17 > 0:17:19- That cannot be denied. - Henry, let me assure you,
0:17:19 > 0:17:22your mum's face lights up when she's got that wee thing in her hand.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24Yes, that would be lovely. £20, thank you very much.
0:17:24 > 0:17:25- Oh, she did it!- Yeah?- She did it!
0:17:25 > 0:17:27- Here we are, yeah. - Thank you very much indeed.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Good for you, Patsy!
0:17:30 > 0:17:33- Well, that's it, folks. You did it.- We're done!
0:17:33 > 0:17:35- Fantastic.- And, boy, did you do small and pretty!
0:17:35 > 0:17:38I know. But we also didn't spend a lot of money, did we?
0:17:38 > 0:17:40- There is that. - You've got more to spend!- Yeah.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44- You bought well! Come on! - Right, good.- Fantastic.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Well done, Reds. Job done, and in 45 minutes.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Blues, time's ticking and you still need two items.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52We need to move! We need to move!
0:17:52 > 0:17:54I want the dog, but I know it's not a good idea.
0:17:54 > 0:17:57We've got to move. We've got to make sure we see everything.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Are you going to indulge your daughter?
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Well, I've been indulging her for 25 years.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03I don't think I should...
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Well, I could make a stance now, I think. I think I should say no!
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- Can I show you something? - Yes.- You can.- Come on, then.
0:18:09 > 0:18:10Quickly, then, Blues.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Reds, are you content with your lot?
0:18:14 > 0:18:18- I think we were a killer team. - I think so, yeah.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Right then, folks, is it bacon butty time?
0:18:20 > 0:18:24- Oh, yes, please.- Oh, yes, fantastic. - Come on, let's go. This way.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25Grab one for me!
0:18:25 > 0:18:29So, with ten minutes left, anyone for tennis?
0:18:29 > 0:18:33See, I love this. You've got a tennis court net, but no net.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36But you've got these posts. You've got the bases and stands.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Priced at £110.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Do you like it? - I like it. Really like it.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42- Yeah?- But is there a profit in that?
0:18:42 > 0:18:43Can we have a word with you, good sir?
0:18:43 > 0:18:46We were just wondering about your tennis court net. I love it.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48These uprights,
0:18:48 > 0:18:50I don't think they've got anything to do with it, really.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53No, I'm not too sure,
0:18:53 > 0:18:56but certainly the cast iron bottoms look older than...
0:18:56 > 0:18:59They're fantastic. I think the bottoms are probably 100 years old,
0:18:59 > 0:19:01and I think the top's probably 20 years old.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04And it's all down to price, isn't it? Can you help us out?
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Would 90 help you?
0:19:05 > 0:19:09I'm thinking, like, 60, 65 quid is where I'm from with it.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Because I think the uprights are new.- Yeah.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14And I think, if the uprights were old,
0:19:14 > 0:19:15I think it's £300 or £400 worth.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19- Absolute rock bottom...- Yes?- ..75.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Right. It's within budget. We can go and buy the dog.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- What's going to happen? - ZOE:- What do you think, Dad?
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- You decide. - I think we'll go for this.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31- OK, done! Shake his hand quickly! - Thank you.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33- Thank you very much.- Right, thank you.- Thank you very much.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36- Right. Now then, you two, up there...- Get the dog.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39- Get the dog.- Make sure the dog hasn't run off.- Get the dog!
0:19:40 > 0:19:41That's the second item bought,
0:19:41 > 0:19:44and just five minutes left to buy the dog.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48- Is he still here, Zoe? - He's still there.
0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Oh, my goodness. - Well-trained, isn't it?
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- Oh, no!- He is. It's the best sit-stay I've ever seen.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57- Sit. Sit.- Wait!- So, we're definitely going to have this, then, yeah?
0:19:57 > 0:19:59- We definitely want the dog. - You'll indulge her?
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Well, let me see. It's against my better judgment, definitely.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03We're going to give the dog a home.
0:20:03 > 0:20:04- Shall I get the dealer in? - Yes, please.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Come on in, my dear. Now then, you've been very, very kind to us.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10- OK.- There's our £150 dog.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14- I think we're definitely going to have it, aren't we? - Yes, please. Like to do a deal.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16- OK, thank you.- Walkies!
0:20:16 > 0:20:17Well done, Blues.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22Right, teams, your time is up.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Now, let's check out what the Red team have bought.
0:20:26 > 0:20:30First up, Patsy and Henry paid £40 for this compact.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35Next, Henry could smell a profit on this prosthetic nose.
0:20:35 > 0:20:36£28 paid.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40And finally, with plenty of time to spare,
0:20:40 > 0:20:42they paid £20 for this silver clock.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Well, Henry, was Mum in charge?
0:20:46 > 0:20:49- Depends on what part of the day. - Yeah.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53- I was a bit, and then I wasn't. - Patsy, what's your favourite lot?
0:20:53 > 0:20:55I love the compact. I thought that was beautiful.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56- You like that, don't you? - Very elegant.- Yeah.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58Of its time. I've never seen one like that before.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Henry, what do you think?
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I really enjoyed buying the prosthetic nose.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05It's likely that we'll never see another one of those again.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08- And if I do, it'll be too soon! - For Mum, that will not be too soon!
0:21:08 > 0:21:09Patsy, what's going to make the biggest profit?
0:21:09 > 0:21:12- I think the compact.- The compact. - I think it is, yeah. I think so.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- Henry?- I think it's hopefully going to be the nose.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18- The nose, the nose.- Simply because we'll get some kind of...
0:21:18 > 0:21:20When did you last see a nose make a profit?
0:21:20 > 0:21:23..eccentric collector who will just snap it up.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Well, £88. I would say a trifle disappointing, really.
0:21:26 > 0:21:27- Yes, I was disappointed.- Were you?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30- I tried to spend more. - We thought we'd spend a lot more.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32You've still got £212 burning a...
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- Ah, you've got it, Henry.- Yeah. - You weren't going to let Mum have...
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- No, I'm not safe with it! - I put it in the safest place.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42I get to handle it for a very short period of time, Henry.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Then it goes off to the whizzo that is Paul Laidlaw.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48- Spend wisely!- Good luck, Paul. - That's what I do.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50- What are you going to do with it, Paul?- Oh, I don't know.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52But, frankly, if it's not small and/or pretty,
0:21:52 > 0:21:55I'll feel I've let myself and the team down.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56- Absolutely.- I know you will!
0:21:56 > 0:21:59So, while Paul goes off to look for something small and pretty,
0:21:59 > 0:22:02we'll check out just what the Blue team have bought.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08First up, Philip and Zoe bought this box for £32.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Next, will they serve up an ace at the auction
0:22:12 > 0:22:15with this tennis set, bought for £75?
0:22:16 > 0:22:21Finally, they went puppy-eyed over this dog and paid £150 for it.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25Philip and Zoe, a bit slow starting, weren't you?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27- Oh, we were very slow. - Yes.- Very slow.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29And there was a bit of passion burning, wasn't there?
0:22:29 > 0:22:33There was. I had a particularly exciting buy.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36I know, I know. And it wasn't cheap, was it?
0:22:36 > 0:22:38- No! - PHILIP LAUGHS
0:22:38 > 0:22:41- Philip's laughing. - Oh, dear, dear, dear.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43What's your favourite lot, Zoe?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45My favourite is definitely the dog, of course.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Well, there's a surprise(!) Philip's coughing.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49- Philip, what about you? - I like the box best.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51You like the box? What's going to make the biggest profit?
0:22:51 > 0:22:53- Definitely the box. - Definitely the box?- Yes.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56- I don't think we're going to make any profit at all.- What?!
0:22:56 > 0:22:58And you spent £257.
0:22:58 > 0:23:04- Yes, we made a good hole in our 300. - That is a sizeable chunk of cash.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06- Now, who's got the leftover lolly? - I do.- Zoe's got it.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09£43, I'm looking for.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11There's the three and the 40.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Philip, 43 of the very finest for you.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16- Charlie, thank you. - What are you going to do with it?
0:23:16 > 0:23:20Well, we set out with a mission to buy a doggy thing, which we did.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24And then we got sort of transgressed into globes and Freemasonry,
0:23:24 > 0:23:27so I've got to go and find something to keep his nibs happy.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29You certainly have.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32Well, while Philip goes off to keep his nibs happy,
0:23:32 > 0:23:35I'm off to somewhere really quite interesting.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47I'm in Richmond, in North Yorkshire.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49In the heart of this picturesque square
0:23:49 > 0:23:51is the Green Howards Museum,
0:23:51 > 0:23:54named after the Howards infantry regiment
0:23:54 > 0:23:58that was formed way back in 1688.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02I've come to meet Steve Erskine, the museum's assistant curator,
0:24:02 > 0:24:04to find out more about this local regiment.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Steve, can you tell me more about the collection here?
0:24:07 > 0:24:09We have a collection of the Green Howards history
0:24:09 > 0:24:11going back to 1688 right up to modern day.
0:24:18 > 0:24:1930,000-odd objects,
0:24:19 > 0:24:22not all on display at the same time, obviously,
0:24:22 > 0:24:25but around here to tell the human story of service,
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- dedication and sacrifice for the regiment.- Yeah.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37There is one particular room that I'd like to show you, Charlie,
0:24:37 > 0:24:38and it's this one.
0:24:38 > 0:24:41Oh, my goodness me!
0:24:41 > 0:24:44That's absolutely breathtaking.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- How many medals are in here? - About 3,500.- Really?
0:24:47 > 0:24:49But there is one medal in particular with a story
0:24:49 > 0:24:51that I'd like to show you.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54- This Victoria Cross.- Right. And to whom was that awarded?
0:24:54 > 0:24:57It's awarded to Private Henry Tandey,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00who was the most decorated private soldier
0:25:00 > 0:25:01in the First World War,
0:25:01 > 0:25:05with the three highest awards for gallantry - Military Medal,
0:25:05 > 0:25:07Distinguished Conduct Medal and Victoria Cross.
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Gosh, what a chap. What did he win his Victoria Cross for?
0:25:10 > 0:25:13He was at a French village called Marcoing
0:25:13 > 0:25:15and crossing the Saint Quentin Canal
0:25:15 > 0:25:18and he saw that the bridge had been damaged,
0:25:18 > 0:25:20went forward under his own initiative
0:25:20 > 0:25:23and replaced planking in the bridge under enemy fire,
0:25:23 > 0:25:25so that his men could get across.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28All those awards, why wasn't he promoted?
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- He refused a commission.- Really? - He didn't want to be an officer.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33He's also famous for something else, isn't he?
0:25:33 > 0:25:35- He is.- Involving Hitler?- Yes.
0:25:35 > 0:25:38You passed the Menin Crossroads picture
0:25:38 > 0:25:39as you were coming up the stairs there,
0:25:39 > 0:25:43which shows Henry Tandey with a wounded comrade on his back.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45- Right.- The story runs that,
0:25:45 > 0:25:48when Chamberlain went to visit Hitler in 1938,
0:25:48 > 0:25:50a copy of that painting was in Hitler's study.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Chamberlain asked why and Hitler said,
0:25:53 > 0:25:57"I and he, our paths crossed later in the war
0:25:57 > 0:25:59"and that man Tandey didn't shoot me."
0:25:59 > 0:26:01- He recognised the person? - Indeed, yeah.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Now, believe it or not - it's up to you -
0:26:05 > 0:26:09but Tandey certainly had a rule at this point in the war
0:26:09 > 0:26:12that if he met a wounded German, he didn't pull the trigger.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14- So, it could have been Hitler. - It could have been him.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Obviously, he didn't know what Hitler was going to turn into,
0:26:16 > 0:26:19but what was true is that, for the rest of his days,
0:26:19 > 0:26:22Tandey was known as the man who didn't shoot Hitler.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27Henry Tandey was not the only member of the Green Howards
0:26:27 > 0:26:29to be awarded a Victoria Cross.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33Donald Simpson-Bell is the only professional English footballer
0:26:33 > 0:26:35to receive the award.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Bell played for the Yorkshire team Bradford Park Avenue.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41He asked the club to release him from his contract
0:26:41 > 0:26:45and enlisted in the Green Howards in 1914.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48So, what did he win his Victoria Cross for?
0:26:48 > 0:26:51Two gallant actions. The first on the 5th of July 1916 -
0:26:51 > 0:26:54a German position called Horseshoe Trench,
0:26:54 > 0:26:56which he and others took.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59They then came under German machine-gun fire
0:26:59 > 0:27:01and he sprinted across no man's land,
0:27:01 > 0:27:05threw a bomb, using his pistol, killed the crew,
0:27:05 > 0:27:08and saved his platoon from any further decimation.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11And again, we've got another artefact here.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14He wrote a letter home, which describes the action.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18- Wonderful handwriting.- Isn't it?
0:27:18 > 0:27:20And again, you think about a man sitting in a trench
0:27:20 > 0:27:23- with pencil and paper.- I've just got a sentence here to read.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26"I must confess, that was the biggest fluke alive,
0:27:26 > 0:27:28"and I did nothing.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31"I chucked the bomb and it did the trick."
0:27:31 > 0:27:34- How modest can you get? - Modest, simple, powerful.
0:27:34 > 0:27:38- But thanks to his action, many men's lives were saved.- Yeah.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Five days later, tried the same thing again,
0:27:40 > 0:27:43and this time wasn't as fortunate.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45Some weeks after he was killed,
0:27:45 > 0:27:48his family were awarded posthumously his Victoria Cross,
0:27:48 > 0:27:51presented to them by the King at Buckingham Palace.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Gosh. A proud moment.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58- Thank you very much indeed, Steve. - My pleasure.- Fascinating stories.
0:27:58 > 0:28:01Meanwhile, we're off to Darlington to the auction
0:28:01 > 0:28:02and we're going to see who's going to win
0:28:02 > 0:28:05in the battle of the Reds versus the Blues.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13Today, we're at Thomas Watson Auctioneers
0:28:13 > 0:28:16and I'm with the auctioneer himself, David Elstob.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18- Hello, David.- Hi, Charlie. - Lovely to be here.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20And we've got Patsy and Henry's lots -
0:28:20 > 0:28:22the Red team - coming up first.
0:28:22 > 0:28:27And Patsy was bonkers about this and insisted on buying it.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29- What do you think of it? - I think it's very nice,
0:28:29 > 0:28:31it's very vintage, very much of the period.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34- And it is true Deco, isn't it? - It is, very much so.
0:28:34 > 0:28:38- The Charleston era, I'd call that. - Indeed. I think it'll do well.
0:28:38 > 0:28:42Yeah, I think Patsy thinks it will make her the biggest profit.
0:28:42 > 0:28:44What sort of money have you put on it?
0:28:44 > 0:28:47- 40 to 60.- 40 to 60. That's pretty promising, really.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49They paid £40 for it.
0:28:49 > 0:28:53However, the second lot might be slightly more problematic.
0:28:53 > 0:28:56Have you ever sold a prosthetic nose before?
0:28:56 > 0:28:58I've sold lots of things, Charlie,
0:28:58 > 0:29:00but I've never sold a prosthetic nose.
0:29:00 > 0:29:04Well, Henry really enjoyed this lot and he wanted to buy it,
0:29:04 > 0:29:06and, indeed, he did buy it.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08What sort of estimate can you possibly have put on this?
0:29:08 > 0:29:11- We've put 20 to 30.- Have you?- Yes.
0:29:11 > 0:29:13Bullish, I would say! Bullish!
0:29:13 > 0:29:17That's marvellous cos they only paid 28.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19There might be a loss there, I'm afraid to say.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23I think where they might have won is this little travel clock.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25- It's very pretty.- Yeah. - Nice Swiss movement.
0:29:25 > 0:29:27Hallmark - 1915.
0:29:27 > 0:29:30It's very nice. We've put an estimate of 30 to 50 on it.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34Good stuff. Looks like a thumping profit there, with any luck.
0:29:34 > 0:29:38- Paid £20.- They've done very well. - Yeah. Well, thanks to the nose,
0:29:38 > 0:29:41they might well need the bonus buy. Let's have a look at it.
0:29:43 > 0:29:48Well, Patsy and Henry, you gave this lovely man a huge amount of money.
0:29:48 > 0:29:49Paul, what have you managed to do with it?
0:29:49 > 0:29:52Well, see what you think.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56- Oh!- What do you think those are? - Are they irons for a baby fire?
0:29:56 > 0:29:58THEY LAUGH
0:29:58 > 0:30:01These are actually knife rests.
0:30:01 > 0:30:05So, we use these on the table to lay down our used knife
0:30:05 > 0:30:09and avoid soiling the polish on the furniture or the table linens.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12- Yes, absolutely.- Fantastic. That's great.- How lovely.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Late-19th, early-20th-century.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16- Ooh!- Right.- Vienna.
0:30:16 > 0:30:20Maybe the most exciting place to be in the world at that time.
0:30:20 > 0:30:24- Yeah.- What do you want them to be made of?- Silver.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27So, how much did you pay for them? 30? 40?
0:30:27 > 0:30:30- Half it. £20.- Oh, my goodness!
0:30:30 > 0:30:34I don't think one can go wrong
0:30:34 > 0:30:38buying Viennese silver knife rests at £10 a piece.
0:30:38 > 0:30:40- You'll be happy with that? - I'm delighted!
0:30:40 > 0:30:43- Speaking of the rest of it... - Oh, my goodness!- Ah!
0:30:43 > 0:30:46- Is that any use to you? - There's more! Oh, my goodness me!
0:30:46 > 0:30:50THEY LAUGH You're a cunning man, Laidlaw.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53- Oh!- That was a good reveal. - Well done.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55- So, we've got five?- Five of them.
0:30:55 > 0:30:57How much do you think they'll make at auction?
0:30:57 > 0:31:00Do you know, I don't think they'd be expensive at £10 a piece,
0:31:00 > 0:31:02and that would be a healthy mark-up.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04That sounds fantastic.
0:31:04 > 0:31:06Anyway, you don't have to make up your mind now.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Let's have a look and see what the auctioneer thinks
0:31:08 > 0:31:10of these wonderful knife rests.
0:31:12 > 0:31:16Paul Laidlaw went off shopping with a lot of money and he bought these.
0:31:16 > 0:31:17Knife rests are very common,
0:31:17 > 0:31:20but the design's very nice, very simple.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22I think there'll be wide-ranging appeal to those.
0:31:22 > 0:31:25One thing struck me - there are five.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27- It's an awkward number. - Yeah.- It's not ideal.
0:31:27 > 0:31:31- So, what sort of money have you put on them?- 40 to 60.- 40 to 60.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33I think he almost stole these, you know?
0:31:33 > 0:31:35He bought them for £20.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38- Very good.- That's a guaranteed profit, isn't it?
0:31:38 > 0:31:41- I hope so.- The auctioneer's guaranteed profit.
0:31:42 > 0:31:46Well, that's the Red team done with. Now for the Blue purchases.
0:31:46 > 0:31:48The first lot is a safe box.
0:31:48 > 0:31:52- Lovely quality. What do you think? - I like it very much. Nice lines.
0:31:52 > 0:31:55Very traditional in some ways, but it's a nice colour and things.
0:31:55 > 0:31:58It's great. That patinated steel is lovely.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00- Very nice.- Yeah. And with its original key.
0:32:00 > 0:32:04- Yes, it's got a lot going for it. - Yeah. What sort of money?
0:32:04 > 0:32:06We've been a bit mean - 30 to 50.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10Yeah, but I think they'd be quite happy with that. 32 paid.
0:32:10 > 0:32:11- They've done well.- Yeah.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14Now, how you value the next lot, I don't know.
0:32:14 > 0:32:18Great maker, but how many people have a lawn big enough
0:32:18 > 0:32:20- for a tennis court? - That's the key, isn't it?
0:32:20 > 0:32:22I mean, if you haven't got a tennis court,
0:32:22 > 0:32:25here are all the kits. En-Tout-Cas - as you say, a super maker,
0:32:25 > 0:32:28but you've got to have a big garden, haven't you?
0:32:28 > 0:32:30- You do. Very big garden. - Got to be flat, as well.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32- Yes.- Be interested to see what you valued that at.
0:32:32 > 0:32:35- 60 to 100. - Well, that fits in, really.
0:32:35 > 0:32:37They paid 75.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39I suppose it's something, really, on a bad day
0:32:39 > 0:32:42- that could bomb a little bit. - I'm afraid it could.- Yeah.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45We'll just keep our fingers crossed. So, the third item's the dog.
0:32:45 > 0:32:46It's too big to get here,
0:32:46 > 0:32:48but you've given it prominent position
0:32:48 > 0:32:50as you walk into the saleroom.
0:32:50 > 0:32:52- What do you think of it? - It's a fabulous thing.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55- It has a great look to it. - You have high hopes for that?
0:32:55 > 0:32:58- I have very high hopes.- What sort of high hopes in terms of money?
0:32:58 > 0:33:02- Estimate's 100 to 200.- Is it really?
0:33:02 > 0:33:04I'm quite encouraged by that, really,
0:33:04 > 0:33:08- cos they paid a good wedge for this.- OK.
0:33:08 > 0:33:12- What's a good wedge?- £150. - OK. Well, we'll see.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Well, who knows whether they'll need their bonus buy or not.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18With an En-Tout-Cas tennis court kit and a large dog,
0:33:18 > 0:33:21it's just possible they might do. Let's have a look at it.
0:33:22 > 0:33:25Zoe and Philip, you sent Phil off
0:33:25 > 0:33:28in I think what he described as a misguided direction.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31- Yes, something like that, Charlie. - But the good news is
0:33:31 > 0:33:33you didn't send him off with much money, did you?
0:33:33 > 0:33:36- We didn't.- £43. What did he find?
0:33:36 > 0:33:38Well, I'm not sure I was misguided, but look.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Actually, I've turned into a magician.
0:33:42 > 0:33:44Just hold on. Hold on.
0:33:44 > 0:33:49- THEY LAUGH - How good is that?!
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- I'm going to turn pro. - That was extraordinary.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54You tell them what it is cos you know what it is.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56I do. It's definitely a Masonic jewel.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Well, it's a Royal Arch Chapter jewel
0:33:58 > 0:34:00and that's one of the degrees of Freemasonry.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03- It's silver-gilt. - How old is it, do you think?
0:34:03 > 0:34:06Might be late-Victorian. It cost me £10.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- £10?- How much do you think it'll make at auction?
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Well, it's silver, you know,
0:34:11 > 0:34:14so it's got to make 20 to 40 quid, I would think.
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- We'll make more than £10 with that. - Yeah, it will.- More than £10.
0:34:17 > 0:34:19- Can we just go back to my magician skills?- Yes.
0:34:19 > 0:34:20That was good. That was good.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23- Do you think I've got a future there?- No.- Oh, right.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25- Stick to your day job.- Really?!
0:34:25 > 0:34:27- Yeah.- That'll do.
0:34:27 > 0:34:29Well, well, well. So, what do you think, Zoe?
0:34:29 > 0:34:32I like it. I don't think I'm going to have much of a say, though.
0:34:32 > 0:34:33I think Dad's sold on that one.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35You don't have to make up your mind now.
0:34:35 > 0:34:39Let's just see what the auctioneer thinks of this jewel.
0:34:40 > 0:34:45There we go, the Masonic medal. Silver-gilt. What do you think?
0:34:45 > 0:34:46I like it. It's 1904.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49- Is it?- It's Edwardian. - Yeah?- So, an antique.
0:34:49 > 0:34:52- It's very, very pretty, I think.- Yeah.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55The silver content means it's worth something, doesn't it?
0:34:55 > 0:34:56- It does.- Again, I suppose,
0:34:56 > 0:34:58it's a limited market, but get the right people...
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Slightly limited, but you have silver collectors
0:35:00 > 0:35:03and you have lodge collectors, so I think it'll...
0:35:03 > 0:35:06- I think it's well-placed. - What sort of estimate?
0:35:06 > 0:35:10- 20 to 40.- He paid £10 for it. - He did very well.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13- Now, David, you'll be taking the sale today.- I am.- Marvellous.
0:35:13 > 0:35:17Looking forward to it. Well, get into position and go for it.
0:35:18 > 0:35:22At 85. Any more? Going to finish at £85. All done?
0:35:23 > 0:35:27Now, the first lot that's coming up is that wonderful compact.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30- Ooh!- Right.- I liked it. I can say that now.
0:35:30 > 0:35:33- I really liked it.- Good. - You both liked it.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35- Yes, we did.- Here it is.
0:35:35 > 0:35:40170 is a 1930s jewelled, Bakelite, Art Deco-style compact.
0:35:40 > 0:35:43Pretty thing. I'll start you with interest at £25.
0:35:43 > 0:35:4625, I'm bid. At £25. £30.
0:35:46 > 0:35:48An online bidder. At £30.
0:35:48 > 0:35:50- Ooh, online. That's a good sign.- Yeah.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52At £30, then, the room's out. I'm going to sell, then...
