Today, Bargain Hunt has pulled up in Peterborough.

0:00:040:00:07

Now, behind the scenes it takes a big team to put this show together.

0:00:090:00:14

It's time for a roll call.

0:00:140:00:16

Three runners.

0:00:160:00:18

One researcher.

0:00:180:00:20

One coordinator.

0:00:200:00:24

Three directors.

0:00:240:00:26

The camera and sound crew.

0:00:260:00:27

Not forgetting four contestants.

0:00:270:00:30

Two experts.

0:00:300:00:32

Oh, and one presenter.

0:00:320:00:34

That's me. Right, gang.

0:00:340:00:36

All present and correct, so let's go Bargain Hunting!

0:00:360:00:39

Well, our two teams have got a lot of ground to cover today.

0:01:060:01:10

There are so many stalls and this fair is ginormous.

0:01:100:01:14

So, no time to dilly-dally.

0:01:140:01:16

Let's see what's coming up.

0:01:160:01:17

The Reds shimmy and shake their way to a deal.

0:01:200:01:22

Maybe go and ask for a bit of discount.

0:01:220:01:25

-Absolutely.

-Good luck.

0:01:250:01:26

The Blues swap flowers for umbrellas.

0:01:280:01:30

I mean, you could put umbrellas in that.

0:01:300:01:32

-Oh, no!

-No?

-Oh, my God. No.

0:01:320:01:34

-Don't sound happy with that.

-They're actually pieces of art.

0:01:340:01:37

'The Reds are all loved up at the auction.'

0:01:390:01:41

-Either way...

-We love you, Charlie, you know that.

-Thank you, Lana.

0:01:410:01:44

'And it's all or nothing for the Blues.'

0:01:440:01:46

What have you got to lose?

0:01:460:01:48

But all that is coming up later.

0:01:500:01:52

So let's meet today's teams.

0:01:520:01:54

For the Reds we've got Lana and Richard, and for the Blues

0:01:540:01:58

we've got Rick and Ivan.

0:01:580:01:59

-Hello! ALL:

-Hello.

0:01:590:02:01

Hello. So, Richard, tell me, how did you, you lovely couple meet?

0:02:010:02:05

Well, we met on a yoga retreat in Goa

0:02:050:02:09

about a year ago

0:02:090:02:11

and it turned out that we actually lived in the same city.

0:02:110:02:15

Not only that, but we lived about a mile away from each other.

0:02:150:02:19

-No!

-Yeah, so...

0:02:190:02:20

-Well, that's fate, isn't it?

-Yes, could be...

-It is fate.

0:02:200:02:23

So what do you do in your spare time?

0:02:230:02:25

Do a little bit of gardening, do some cycling.

0:02:250:02:27

I'm a sort of an amateur artist, as well.

0:02:270:02:31

I like to go to art class and pretend to be an artist for a day.

0:02:310:02:34

Excellent. So, Lana, what do you do for a living?

0:02:340:02:37

I'm a social programme manager.

0:02:370:02:39

I work for an international language school in Oxford and I look after

0:02:390:02:43

students who come to Oxford to improve their English.

0:02:430:02:45

And I organise a lot of exciting activities for them.

0:02:450:02:48

Such as?

0:02:480:02:50

Erm... Skydiving?

0:02:500:02:51

-Skydiving?!

-Yeah.

-I'm sure skydiving can be fun to some people.

0:02:510:02:55

But, I mean, you've done it yourself...

0:02:550:02:57

Yeah, I've done it myself. It's really good fun.

0:02:570:02:59

I'd like to do it again.

0:02:590:03:01

And when it comes to your spare time, what do you do with it?

0:03:010:03:05

I like walking, I like kayaking, I like Morris dancing.

0:03:050:03:09

All things sporty.

0:03:090:03:11

And Morris dancing, it's very British.

0:03:110:03:13

-I mean...

-It is, isn't it?

-I mean you're originally from...

0:03:130:03:16

the Ukraine, yes?

0:03:160:03:18

So do you have Morris dancing in the Ukraine?

0:03:180:03:20

I don't think we do. We have some traditional Ukrainian dancing,

0:03:200:03:23

but Morris dancing is so much fun.

0:03:230:03:25

You meet amazing people, it keeps you fit and absolutely love it.

0:03:250:03:28

It's one of the best things I've done in England.

0:03:280:03:31

Excellent. So how do you think you're going to get on today and

0:03:310:03:34

what is going to be your tactics?

0:03:340:03:35

I think we should be looking to try and identify collectable items,

0:03:350:03:40

something that nobody else really has picked up on

0:03:400:03:45

and maybe something local to the area would be good.

0:03:450:03:48

But you've got other ideas, haven't you?

0:03:480:03:50

I just find something quirky, haggle to death, sell it at a profit,

0:03:500:03:54

retire with the profits.

0:03:540:03:56

Oh... Simple as that, eh?

0:03:560:03:58

-Easy.

-Easy-peasy.

0:03:580:04:01

Well, good luck, Reds. But turning my attention to the Blue team...

0:04:010:04:04

So, Ivan, tell me how you and Rick met.

0:04:040:04:07

We met 20 years ago in a bar in Amsterdam.

0:04:070:04:11

And we've been travelling ever since. Here, there and everywhere.

0:04:110:04:16

-And...

-We tend to forget some flights.

0:04:160:04:19

We have missed the occasional flight.

0:04:190:04:22

-How many flights have you missed?

-We've missed three.

-Three?

0:04:220:04:25

-Yeah.

-Now that must be a little bit embarrassing for somebody like

0:04:250:04:28

yourself, bearing in mind where you work and what you do for a living.

0:04:280:04:33

Yes, I do work at an airport.

0:04:330:04:34

-Yes?

-Yes.

-So you should know better, shouldn't you?

0:04:340:04:37

I should know better, yes.

0:04:370:04:39

I feel that it's more Rick's fault that we've missed the flight.

0:04:390:04:43

Oh, right. OK.

0:04:430:04:45

I'm not always that accurate with the times that are on the tickets, so...

0:04:450:04:49

OK. Well, we're looking for solidarity here.

0:04:490:04:52

And Rick, you do something completely different, don't you?

0:04:520:04:55

Yeah, I'm a primary school teacher.

0:04:550:04:57

-But originally you hail from Holland.

-I am from the Netherlands.

0:04:570:05:00

-Yeah.

-Where I used to be head of a primary school.

0:05:000:05:03

And when I came to this country,

0:05:030:05:05

I thought I would never go back into teaching,

0:05:050:05:08

but after two years being here,

0:05:080:05:09

it started itching and I'm back to teaching and still doing it.

0:05:090:05:13

And you've got a passion for antiques that goes back to your,

0:05:130:05:16

-almost your childhood.

-Yeah, I absolutely love antiques.

0:05:160:05:19

And I've been very lucky,

0:05:190:05:21

I've been handed down some great cabinets through the family,

0:05:210:05:25

and I'm a fifth generation now looking after them,

0:05:250:05:27

so I can hand them over to the sixth generation.

0:05:270:05:30

Fantastic. So, how are you going to work today when it comes to buying?

0:05:300:05:33

What are your tactics?

0:05:330:05:35

Well... Spend big.

0:05:350:05:37

Yeah, we're willing to spend most of it.

0:05:370:05:39

-Big profit.

-We leave some for our expert,

0:05:390:05:41

but if we see something that's really great, then we're, yeah,

0:05:410:05:44

prepared to spend a lot of money.

0:05:440:05:46

OK. Well, that brings me very nicely to the issue of money.

0:05:460:05:50

So this is where I dish the dosh.

0:05:500:05:54

£300 to the Reds.

0:05:540:05:57

And £300 to you Blues.

0:05:570:05:59

Spend it wisely and off you go to meet your experts.

0:05:590:06:03

Thank you.

0:06:030:06:05

I think spending money is going to be second nature to both our teams today.

0:06:050:06:09

And of course, our competing couples need some competitive companions.

0:06:120:06:16

For the Reds, who you gonna call?

0:06:160:06:18

It's Charles Hanson.

0:06:180:06:20

And wheeling and dealing with the Blues, it's Tim Weeks.

0:06:210:06:25

-What kind of things are you after today?

-Well, ideally I'd like to

0:06:250:06:30

find a bronze cockerel embellished with precious stones!

0:06:300:06:34

That's very precise.

0:06:340:06:35

-What have we got our eyes on today?

-Well, I'm going to be looking out for something retro.

0:06:350:06:39

-I want something that's funky, got some colour in it...

-Nice.

0:06:390:06:43

-Richard?

-I'm going for some vintage toys of some sort.

0:06:430:06:45

Glassware. Silver enamel pillboxes...

0:06:450:06:49

-OK.

-Perhaps some travel art.

-Oh, wow.

0:06:490:06:52

OK, teams. Let's get things rolling.

0:06:530:06:56

Your time starts now.

0:06:560:06:58

Follow me. Come on.

0:06:580:06:59

-We've got to get on with it. Let's go shopping.

-OK.

-OK.

-Come on.

0:06:590:07:03

That's a pair of substantial shopping lists, but remember,

0:07:050:07:09

that hour flies by. Good luck.

0:07:090:07:11

Has anyone seen my cockerel?

0:07:110:07:13

Whilst Lana is looking for a specific item, what about the Blues?

0:07:130:07:16

I quite like that rack there.

0:07:180:07:19

I think that's awful.

0:07:190:07:22

-I hate it.

-Oh, some difference of opinion with these boys.

0:07:220:07:25

This could be an interesting shop.

0:07:250:07:28

-Let's go over here.

-What have the Reds spotted?

0:07:280:07:30

Well, I used to live in Japan and this is quite oriental,

0:07:310:07:34

Japanese-looking thing.

0:07:340:07:36

It's what you'd call a garden seat, really.

0:07:360:07:38

If it was painted, I would love it,

0:07:380:07:41

because it would be a work of art,

0:07:410:07:43

but in fact, Richard, it's transferred print.

0:07:430:07:48

-OK, OK.

-So actually, it's not very old.

0:07:480:07:50

It may be as old as you are.

0:07:500:07:52

Uh-oh! Guessing a lady's age. Dodgy ground, Charles.

0:07:520:07:55

Maybe it's about 25 years old.

0:07:550:07:58

Oh, I'm 19 so...!

0:07:580:08:01

Very, very nice. But I would say you want to try and buy the real McCoy.

0:08:010:08:05

-OK.

-OK.

-Come on.

-Fair enough.

0:08:050:08:07

Panic not, still plenty of time, guys.

0:08:100:08:12

-Anything you fancy?

-Those tins over there, they're quite cool.

0:08:140:08:17

-Bread bin, the flour bin? The enamel ones?

-Yeah.

-Go and have a look.

0:08:170:08:20

-They're huge.

-Yeah, you'd get a few loafs in there, wouldn't you?

0:08:200:08:23

So, what's the price on those?

0:08:230:08:25

£35.

0:08:260:08:28

OK. If you're interested, we'd need to do a little bit on that

0:08:280:08:31

if you want to make some profit off it.

0:08:310:08:33

Do you know what's interesting about that one is the colour,

0:08:330:08:35

-the green enamel's always popular compared to the white.

-Yeah.

0:08:350:08:38

They're a bit harder to find, the green ones.

0:08:380:08:40

£35?

0:08:400:08:41

If we get it to 30?

0:08:410:08:43

-25?

-I'd want it less than that.

0:08:430:08:45

-Less...

-I mean, in an auction room I'd want them guided at around £20.

0:08:450:08:49

-OK.

-You're going to have to get the hard negotiation skills out.

0:08:490:08:52

-Who's the best negotiator?

-Ivan.

0:08:520:08:54

-Rick.

-I think both of you.

0:08:540:08:56

-Go and ask him.

-Excuse me, sir,

0:08:560:08:59

your green bread tin...

0:08:590:09:01

-Yes?

-What would be your best price on that one?

0:09:010:09:03

-I'd have to look, see what's on it at the moment.

-It says £35.

0:09:030:09:07

I think that can be £30.

0:09:100:09:13

Do you think it could be around 20?

0:09:130:09:16

It's less than I paid for it, so it couldn't be that low.

0:09:160:09:19

25, perhaps?

0:09:200:09:21

You're not treating me very generously, are you?

0:09:220:09:25

A fiver? Well, I'll split the difference, do 28.

0:09:250:09:29

OK, so what are you thinking? Remember, it's early in the day.

0:09:290:09:32

£28, you can't go wrong.

0:09:320:09:34

You happy? Go with the gut then. If you want it, let's do it.

0:09:340:09:36

-Let's shake hands. £28. Thank you.

-Number one in the bag.

0:09:360:09:39

It's a big moment. The next two are going to be easy,

0:09:390:09:42

-well done.

-Yes.

-Brilliant.

0:09:420:09:44

Shall we crack on?

0:09:440:09:46

-Brilliant, well done, guys.

-Thank you very much.

-Thank you.

0:09:460:09:49

Nice work, chaps. Ten minutes in and the first item purchased.

0:09:510:09:54

The, Reds, however, are hot on your heels.

0:09:560:09:58

There's some lovely early pottery in here.

0:09:580:10:00

How about this clog?

0:10:010:10:03

Now, why has that appealed to you?

0:10:040:10:06

-It looks a bit quirky, doesn't it?

-It's quite garish, isn't it?

0:10:060:10:08

-Yes.

-I suppose in many respects you could have it on your dressing table.

0:10:080:10:12

It could be a little planter.

0:10:120:10:14

Yes. Cheap. Feel it.

0:10:140:10:16

This is lovely, because this is the actual kiln marks,

0:10:180:10:21

and it probably dates to around 1900.

0:10:210:10:25

Is it marked at all, Lana? Can you see a name on there?

0:10:250:10:28

That's true, yes. It doesn't look like it, does it.

0:10:280:10:30

Think about it. I like it.

0:10:300:10:32

But remember, team, will it make a profit once it's resold at action?

0:10:320:10:36

And what about... it's not quite a cockerel.

0:10:360:10:39

Oh, crikey. It's cockerel talk.

0:10:390:10:42

She's persistent, Charles, I'll give her that.

0:10:420:10:44

It's green and it's pretty, and it's a parrot.

0:10:440:10:48

It's a parrot. It is a parrot.

0:10:480:10:50

-Oh, no, it's a bit damaged.

-Can that qualify as a cockerel, though?

0:10:500:10:53

-No, it can't. It's awful, isn't it?

-Put it back.

0:10:530:10:56

We've seen your nice, green glazed shoe.

0:10:560:11:00

-Yes.

-We've just admired your parrot, are they worthy of a second handle,

0:11:000:11:05

to talk to the stallholder and ask on price?

0:11:050:11:07

Yes, I'll ask the price for the clog, yes.

0:11:070:11:10

-For the clog.

-The clog, I like the clog.

-How much was it?

-22.

0:11:100:11:14

-Yeah.

-It isn't a lot of money really, and it could be a fairly safe buy.

0:11:140:11:18

15 quid will do it for me.

0:11:180:11:19

Yeah, why don't you and your wonderful alluring Ukrainian accent,

0:11:190:11:24

with love from Ukraine, maybe go and ask for a bit of discount.

0:11:240:11:28

-Absolutely.

-Good luck, go on.

-Let's go.

0:11:280:11:30

Good luck, Lana, although I don't think she'll need it.

0:11:300:11:33

Let's check in with the Blues.

0:11:330:11:37

Let's just have a quick look at this lamp over here.

0:11:370:11:39

Yeah, OK. The price is my fear straight away.

0:11:390:11:43

-Yeah.

-I think it's one that before we fall in love with it too much,

0:11:430:11:45

we might just want to get an idea of price.

0:11:450:11:48

-OK.

-Try and find him.

0:11:480:11:50

-Hello.

-Hi. We're just interested in the lamp.

0:11:500:11:54

The yellow one is a 1930s airport landing light.

0:11:540:11:59

'I guess you see plenty of these at work, then, Ivan.'

0:11:590:12:02

Hit us with the price on that one.

0:12:020:12:04

-270.

-What do you think, guys?

0:12:040:12:08

You've spotted quality.

0:12:080:12:09

We've spotted quality, but it's a bit out of our price range.

0:12:090:12:12

-This is your time, this one.

-Yeah.

0:12:120:12:15

I'll always listen to an offer.

0:12:150:12:17

-Let's have a good look at it. Can we have...please?

-Certainly.

0:12:170:12:20

What are you thinking?

0:12:200:12:23

Well, I wanted to make sure it's not broken, for that sort of money.

0:12:230:12:28

It's a dangerous thing to take to auction when you're spending that

0:12:280:12:31

sort of figure, because we're trying to make a profit.

0:12:310:12:33

-Exactly.

-Yeah.

-It's not a piece of tat.

0:12:330:12:36

No, no, no.

0:12:360:12:37

It is something that would look fantastic, in the right environment.

0:12:370:12:41

'Like an airport, you mean, Ivan?'

0:12:420:12:44

We have to buy another item and there needs to be some money left

0:12:440:12:47

-for Tim.

-But we're only going to leave Tim a pound, aren't we?

0:12:470:12:50

Yeah, that's all we need.

0:12:500:12:51

Do you want do the negotiations on it?

0:12:510:12:54

-No!

-'Nice try, Ivan.'

0:12:540:12:57

This is your one. Go and have a quiet word with him.

0:12:570:12:59

OK.

0:12:590:13:01

Whilst Ivan has a word with the stallholder,

0:13:010:13:03

let's see how the Reds are getting on with that ceramic clog.

0:13:030:13:06

So I've just spoken to the lovely gentleman and he agreed to sell it for £15.

0:13:060:13:11

So you have acquired a £7 discount.

0:13:110:13:14

That's very good. Is it a goer, Richard, at £15?

0:13:140:13:17

-I do like it.

-Richard like it, let's go for it.

0:13:170:13:19

-Let's do it.

-All right.

0:13:190:13:21

-Come on, then, let's go and buy it.

-Yay! Ta-da!

0:13:210:13:23

Nice one, Reds, that's your first item in the bag.

0:13:230:13:26

You're coming up to halfway in to your shop.

0:13:260:13:29

No time to hot-foot it, on to your next.

0:13:290:13:31

The asking price for the landing light was £270,

0:13:320:13:36

how did the negotiations go, Ivan?

0:13:360:13:38

Well, the best he's going to do it for is £200.

0:13:380:13:42

-Do you think there is any profit in that?

-I'd be worried.

0:13:420:13:45

I'd want that estimated at 80-120 at an auction house,

0:13:450:13:48

so if we're still running around and we're struggling,

0:13:480:13:51

we can always come back if we've got money left, and try it again,

0:13:510:13:54

-I think it'll still be there.

-OK.

0:13:540:13:55

Good advice, Tim. Certainly something to think about.

0:13:570:14:00

Let's leave the teams shopping, as I show you an item which is really close to my heart.

0:14:000:14:05

Well, everybody knows that I love pots,

0:14:130:14:15

and this is a pot for which I've got a great affection.

0:14:150:14:19

I have an affinity also, in so far as that I'm a Lancastrian,

0:14:190:14:24

and my pot is a Lancastrian, because this was made by Pilkingtons,

0:14:240:14:28

which was located near a place called Swinton Junction,

0:14:280:14:32

in between Bolton and Manchester.

0:14:320:14:35

The story starts all in the 1880s,

0:14:350:14:37

when a local coal company was sinking mineshafts,

0:14:370:14:41

and they came across a layer of clay,

0:14:410:14:44

so they sent samples off.

0:14:440:14:46

The results came back, saying it was ideal for tile making,

0:14:460:14:50

so rather than build a coal mine, they built a tile factory.

0:14:500:14:54

And I can tell you now, in later years, Pilkington tiles adorned

0:14:540:14:58

the bathrooms of the Titanic, no less.

0:14:580:15:01

Let's have a look at the actual design,

0:15:010:15:04

because it harks back to sort of medieval England,

0:15:040:15:09

in so far as you've got these wonderful passant lions,

0:15:090:15:13

and then the underside here is composed of little roses -

0:15:130:15:17

those are Lancastrian roses -

0:15:170:15:20

interspaced with heart motifs.

0:15:200:15:23

So if we turn it upside down,

0:15:230:15:25

the artist responsible for painting this pot, his initials are there.

0:15:250:15:29

WSM - William Salter Mycock.

0:15:290:15:33

He stayed with Pilkingtons for the best part

0:15:330:15:36

of 30 years or more.

0:15:360:15:38

He was a very loyal servant and a very well-respected artist.

0:15:380:15:42

You've got an X. X stands for ten,

0:15:420:15:46

so I know this pot was painted in 1910.

0:15:460:15:51

Doesn't get much better than that, does it, really?

0:15:510:15:53

I can tell you now that I was lucky because I bought this pot for £20.

0:15:530:15:57

You may be wondering why so cheap?

0:15:570:15:59

Well, because it did have quite a bit of damage,

0:15:590:16:03

which I have actually gone and done a repair on myself.

0:16:030:16:07

If this piece had been in perfect condition,

0:16:070:16:10

I would have had to pay at least £800-1,000 for it.

0:16:100:16:15

So, what is it worth today?

0:16:150:16:17

If it was to turn up in an auction,

0:16:170:16:19

it would probably carry a pre-sale estimate of £200-300,

0:16:190:16:26

but I can tell you now that this owner is not for selling.

0:16:260:16:30

Back to the shop, 20 minutes remaining and it's one item apiece.

0:16:370:16:41

Team, shall we go this way or that way?

0:16:410:16:44

-Just want to have a quick look up here.

-I'll follow you.

0:16:440:16:46

Focus, Reds.

0:16:460:16:47

'Lana, what were you looking for again?'

0:16:490:16:51

-I'm looking for a cockerel.

-A cockerel!

0:16:510:16:54

-'Oh, yes, that was it.'

-I honestly haven't seen a cockerel yet, Lana.

0:16:540:16:57

I cannot see...

0:16:570:16:58

While the Reds try and find a cockerel, the Blues go inside.

0:16:580:17:02

A bit of porcelain, men after my own heart.

0:17:040:17:07

Is there any that take your fancy in particular?

0:17:080:17:10

I do really like the orangey-red one with the flowers on.

0:17:100:17:14

Some West German fat lava, I believe. Ticket price £70.

0:17:140:17:18

-Why that one?

-I think it's very '70s.

0:17:180:17:21

-Good design.

-Yes.

0:17:210:17:22

Vibrant, funky, which is what we were looking for, wasn't it?

0:17:220:17:25

-Yes.

-DEALER: It's a sunflower, have a look.

0:17:250:17:28

And each piece is individual, you never get one piece the same.

0:17:280:17:31

So what would be your very best price on this one?

0:17:310:17:34

Christine, what's our best price on that?

0:17:340:17:37

I'm afraid we couldn't go under 55.

0:17:370:17:39

Hold it. Feel how heavy it is.

0:17:390:17:41

I mean, you can put umbrellas in that.

0:17:430:17:46

-DEALER:

-Oh, no! God, no!

0:17:460:17:48

'Oops, maybe not the best idea, Ivan.'

0:17:500:17:52

They are actually pieces of artwork.

0:17:520:17:55

It's a one-off. You won't find a second one.

0:17:550:17:58

You can't knock another £5 off?

0:17:580:18:00

Not really. No.

0:18:010:18:03

If you could get that fiver, it would probably do it, wouldn't it?

0:18:030:18:06

The boss has to make his mind up.

0:18:060:18:08

50's just a nice number, isn't it?

0:18:080:18:09

-It's easy cash.

-50 and we shake hands.

0:18:090:18:12

-Come on, 50.

-50, shall we do it?

0:18:120:18:13

Let's do it. Are you happy with that?

0:18:130:18:16

-Yeah.

-That's nice, isn't it?

0:18:160:18:17

-That's a fantastic buy.

-You said you liked decorative art, 20th century.

0:18:170:18:22

-Let's keep looking, shall we?

-OK.

0:18:220:18:23

Some tough negotiating there, fellas.

0:18:230:18:25

However, that's item two for you.

0:18:250:18:28

Meanwhile, the Reds still have only one item to their name.

0:18:280:18:32

Time to have a word, I think, Mr Hanson.

0:18:320:18:34

-I truly think with what, 20 minutes to go...

-Yeah.

0:18:340:18:37

..we're just stop-starting,

0:18:370:18:39

and I think we've now...put on our big show caps and go indoors,

0:18:390:18:45

and try and find some serious stuff.

0:18:450:18:48

-Don't you agree?

-I do, yeah.

-Come on.

0:18:480:18:50

Or in other words - focus, team.

0:18:500:18:53

Right, Tim, how are the Blues getting on?

0:18:540:18:56

Definitely got different tastes.

0:18:560:18:59

They can't quite agree,

0:18:590:19:01

but they're having fun. I think they should get what they want

0:19:010:19:03

and they're definitely doing that.

0:19:030:19:05

Do I think we've got two guaranteed profits so far?

0:19:050:19:08

No. Do I think we're going to buy something later that's going to make

0:19:080:19:11

another slight loss?

0:19:110:19:12

Perhaps. But they're going with their gut,

0:19:120:19:14

they're seeing it and they're buying it.

0:19:140:19:16

Why listen to me?

0:19:160:19:18

And Reds? You're looking a bit stressed, Charles.

0:19:180:19:22

I cannot believe we've only have six minutes left, with £230 to spend,

0:19:220:19:26

and I'm nervous, because at the moment, it's Lana's way.

0:19:260:19:29

I'm hoping Richard might just come into his own now and really take it

0:19:290:19:32

-over the line.

-I think we need to just get a move on,

0:19:320:19:35

we need to find something big, bold, maybe expensive.

0:19:350:19:38

Let's spend some of this money.

0:19:380:19:39

It needs to be done quick. We need to get on with it.

0:19:390:19:42

I'll do whatever he says. As always.

0:19:420:19:44

Yeah, yeah, Lana, we believe you.

0:19:440:19:46

Now stop monkeying around and start buying.

0:19:460:19:49

OK, Blues, something seems to be on your mind.

0:19:500:19:53

-I'm not shaking the lamp off.

-Come on, talk to me about it.

0:19:530:19:55

-If we can get that lamp for 190...

-OK.

0:19:550:19:59

So let's see if he's still there.

0:19:590:20:00

-Was it up this...?

-That way.

0:20:000:20:03

-Oh, no!

-Is it the next one?

-No, it was here.

0:20:030:20:06

-I think it was up here.

-I think it's up here.

0:20:060:20:08

Is it up there?

0:20:080:20:09

Well, you track down that lamp, whilst we track down the Reds.

0:20:120:20:16

Guys, let's walk down here.

0:20:160:20:18

Right, you have ten minutes to buy two items.

0:20:180:20:21

No pressure. Charles, time to take charge.

0:20:210:20:24

There is some lovely jewellery, and particularly in this cabinet here,

0:20:240:20:29

there's a real celebration of life,

0:20:290:20:31

and this is obviously memorial jewellery.

0:20:310:20:33

What I quite like in here, it's that pendant there.

0:20:330:20:35

-Can you see it?

-Yeah.

0:20:350:20:37

That lovely rich ruby eye.

0:20:370:20:39

-Like it?

-Yeah. I like it.

0:20:390:20:41

-It's a pretty piece.

-Absolutely, Richard,

0:20:410:20:44

because if you look at that charming pendant head,

0:20:440:20:48

you've got this beautiful almost three-leaf clover with this really

0:20:480:20:52

beautiful oval ruby.

0:20:520:20:54

Are you a diamond girl, Lana, a ruby girl, emerald?

0:20:540:20:56

-Absolutely.

-Are you?

0:20:560:20:57

-Sapphire?

-Anything.

0:20:570:20:59

So that piece there is late Victorian by its manner,

0:20:590:21:04

so it's almost forever ageless.

0:21:040:21:07

Forever ageless, like me.

0:21:070:21:09

The big question is, what's your asking price on it?

0:21:100:21:13

-70.

-70.

0:21:130:21:14

-Oh, that's not bad.

-Well, you need to come down a little bit,

0:21:140:21:18

because we're trying to make some profit. Would you want us to win?

0:21:180:21:22

The best I can do on it is 60.

0:21:220:21:24

Its market auction guide would be between £50 and £80,

0:21:240:21:28

just for the gold content alone.

0:21:280:21:30

I do like it, yes. For the right price, definitely.

0:21:300:21:32

Would you be able to do 55 for it? And I think you might...

0:21:320:21:36

Yes, I can.

0:21:360:21:37

..find that you've got a deal.

0:21:370:21:39

-Shall we go with it?

-Yeah.

0:21:390:21:40

-Let's do it.

-At last, we've bought something and it isn't that cockerel.

0:21:400:21:44

Thank goodness for that.

0:21:440:21:45

Thank you very much. Right guys, that is two down.

0:21:450:21:48

-One to go.

-We have got, literally, six or so minutes.

0:21:480:21:52

Come on, team. Thanks a lot.

0:21:520:21:54

Come on, follow me.

0:21:540:21:55

Charles is on a charge.

0:21:570:21:59

That's two items each, teams.

0:21:590:22:01

Six minutes left on the clock and you're going to have to

0:22:010:22:03

pull something out of the bag soon.

0:22:030:22:05

I don't think it's this one.

0:22:070:22:08

I think it's the other one, the next one.

0:22:080:22:09

Oh, no! The Blues are still looking for that lamp.

0:22:090:22:13

There he is, guys. Look.

0:22:130:22:15

Ah, good spot, Ivan. Right, time to get that deal sealed.

0:22:160:22:19

-You might need a little bit of luck with this one.

-Yes.

0:22:190:22:22

Ivan, it's over to you.

0:22:220:22:24

-Good afternoon.

-Good afternoon again.

0:22:240:22:26

-It's late.

-It is.

0:22:260:22:28

It's very late. I expect you want to go home?

0:22:280:22:30

Oh, no, I'm here tomorrow as well.

0:22:300:22:32

-Oh, right.

-Going well, Ivan(!)

0:22:320:22:34

How about...190?

0:22:340:22:37

All right.

0:22:380:22:39

Thank you! Thank you.

0:22:390:22:42

-He got it.

-Yeah.

0:22:420:22:44

-Three! Yes.

-Yes, the magic number.

-Three items.

0:22:440:22:49

I'm really scared that you've bought it, but you bought what you wanted.

0:22:490:22:52

You went big today, you said you would.

0:22:520:22:53

Three in the bag, let's put our feet up, shall we?

0:22:530:22:56

Let's go and relax. Come on, this way.

0:22:560:22:58

Well, I'm not sure Tim is totally sold on the lamp,

0:22:580:23:01

but sometimes you have to go with your heart, Ivan.

0:23:010:23:04

Well done, Blues, that's you done and dusted with two minutes to spare.

0:23:040:23:08

That's right, Reds, I said two minutes!

0:23:080:23:11

The pressure's on.

0:23:110:23:13

How are you, mate? We're desperate.

0:23:130:23:15

-Have you got anything?

-What's your budget?

0:23:150:23:17

We've got quite a big budget.

0:23:170:23:18

Oh, you've got a big budget. Four spoons.

0:23:180:23:21

Gilded, enamelled.

0:23:210:23:23

Team, look, we have literally - dare I say it - about 40 seconds.

0:23:230:23:27

These are good silver, gilded, blue enamel stem spoons.

0:23:270:23:32

They're Danish, they're probably, what, 1960s?

0:23:320:23:34

-Yeah.

-20 seconds left.

0:23:340:23:36

-How much?

-£20.

0:23:360:23:39

And you will make a profit on that.

0:23:390:23:40

So they are a good set of Danish silver gilded,

0:23:400:23:43

blue enamel inset coffee spoons

0:23:430:23:46

and you're saying £20 for the whole lot.

0:23:460:23:48

-£20. £5 each.

-Guys...

-Let's do it.

0:23:480:23:51

-£15? £15?

-Go on, then.

-£15.

-Shake his hand.

-Come on, let's do it.

0:23:510:23:56

Time's up, teams.

0:23:560:23:57

-That's been the hardest hour in my career.

-Oh, my God!

0:23:570:24:01

Let's go and sit down and have a coffee. Black for me, please.

0:24:010:24:05

-And strong.

-Let's do it.

-Come on.

0:24:050:24:07

Let's check out what the Reds bought.

0:24:080:24:10

First up was the 20th century pottery shoe.

0:24:120:24:14

Price paid - £15.

0:24:140:24:16

Next, after perusing over the pendant, it was purchased for £55.

0:24:180:24:22

And finally, they settled on the set of enamelled spoons for £15.

0:24:250:24:29

Charlie, let's be frank, tough call, tough call.

0:24:310:24:33

It was, it was an amazingly exciting hour

0:24:330:24:36

and it was up and down and round and round, but we got there in the end.

0:24:360:24:39

You did get there in the end.

0:24:390:24:40

So, Lana, what's your favourite item?

0:24:400:24:43

I really liked the piece of golden jewellery that we bought,

0:24:430:24:46

with the ruby inside. I think it's really pretty

0:24:460:24:48

and I think we got a really good price on it.

0:24:480:24:49

And so do you think that might be giving you the biggest profit,

0:24:490:24:52

-or is that something else?

-I think so, I think the jewellery will make the biggest profit.

0:24:520:24:56

So, Richard, favourite object?

0:24:560:24:58

I like the green boot.

0:24:580:25:00

It got a really good feel to it and the colour was vibrant, and that was my favourite,

0:25:000:25:04

but I think maybe the one that would give us the most profit, possibly,

0:25:040:25:09

are the spoons, I would say.

0:25:090:25:11

The spoons? Interesting. So how much did you spend?

0:25:110:25:14

We spent £85.

0:25:140:25:17

OK, so that means that somebody is going to give me...

0:25:170:25:20

I have £215 to give to you.

0:25:200:25:23

That's the amount that I was looking for.

0:25:230:25:25

It's with me for a brief moment in time.

0:25:250:25:28

It goes to Mr Hanson there for the bonus buy.

0:25:280:25:30

Yes, exactly, if ever the escape is on, this is it,

0:25:300:25:33

and I intend to blow the whole lot and really do a good job.

0:25:330:25:36

Excellent. Good luck.

0:25:360:25:38

But, meanwhile, let's find out what the Blue team have bought.

0:25:380:25:41

Their first item was the enamel bread bin.

0:25:430:25:45

Price paid - £28.

0:25:450:25:47

Next was the German fat lava vase.

0:25:490:25:52

They paid £50.

0:25:520:25:54

And, finally, an airport light.

0:25:560:25:58

But will it land them a profit at auction?

0:25:580:26:00

They settled on £190.

0:26:000:26:03

So, Tim, how was it for you?

0:26:030:26:04

It was great. Scary, at times,

0:26:040:26:06

because they spent a lot of money today.

0:26:060:26:08

-Yeah.

-But they really went out for it.

0:26:080:26:10

They said they were going to spend big and it's exactly what they did, so good for them.

0:26:100:26:14

You did, I mean, all that money on the lamp, you know?

0:26:140:26:17

-Yeah.

-But you liked it, you wanted it?

0:26:170:26:19

Yeah, definitely, yeah.

0:26:190:26:21

So, Ivan, what's your favourite buy?

0:26:210:26:23

It's definitely the lamp,

0:26:230:26:24

because I was the one that was the most passionate about the lamp,

0:26:240:26:27

but I really think that's going to bring us in the biggest profit.

0:26:270:26:30

-OK.

-Yep.

-Now, Rick, what do you think is the best buy?

0:26:300:26:35

The German vase.

0:26:350:26:37

The German vase, OK. Oh, right,

0:26:370:26:39

and what do you think is going to give you the biggest profit?

0:26:390:26:42

Probably the bread tin.

0:26:420:26:43

Probably the bread tin! OK.

0:26:430:26:47

So what was your total spend?

0:26:470:26:49

£268.

0:26:490:26:51

£268, so how much are you going to give me back?

0:26:510:26:55

-£32.

-£32.

0:26:550:26:58

-There we are.

-It's not a lot for the bonus buy,

0:26:580:27:01

but I'm sure you can make that go a long way, Tim.

0:27:010:27:04

-I'm going to try.

-Have you got your eye on anything?

0:27:040:27:06

Well, not as yet, but I'm going to try and get something at least we're

0:27:060:27:10

going to agree on and both like, that's my challenge.

0:27:100:27:12

That's a big challenge.

0:27:120:27:14

Well, while Tim goes off for the bonus buy,

0:27:140:27:17

we are going off to the auction.

0:27:170:27:20

Well, we're now in Lincolnshire

0:27:270:27:29

and we've come up to the brand-new saleroom

0:27:290:27:32

of Golding, Young & Mawer,

0:27:320:27:34

and I'm joined by Kirsty Young today.

0:27:340:27:37

Thank you very much for coming.

0:27:370:27:38

Well, we're delighted to be here, Kirsty.

0:27:380:27:40

Let's start with our Red team.

0:27:400:27:42

The first item we're going to talk about

0:27:420:27:44

is the 20th century pottery shoe.

0:27:440:27:47

-What are your thoughts?

-They are sort of mass-produced for the mass

0:27:470:27:50

market, so you do see quite a few of them about.

0:27:500:27:52

We've put an auction estimate of £10 to £20 on it.

0:27:520:27:55

That's good, they paid £15 for it.

0:27:550:27:57

This is Richard's favourite, so he thinks that it's going to do well.

0:27:570:28:01

The second item is the mid-Victorian mourning pendant.

0:28:010:28:06

It looks very chic, doesn't it?

0:28:060:28:08

It does. Very pretty piece, one of my favourite subjects, jewellery.

0:28:080:28:12

The mourning pendant on the back of it, you can tell the age from that,

0:28:120:28:16

the way that the wear's on there

0:28:160:28:18

from, obviously, the user wearing it.

0:28:180:28:20

We've put an auction estimate of £60 to £80 on it.

0:28:200:28:23

It's very popular at the moment, mourning jewellery,

0:28:230:28:26

so that should be its achievement.

0:28:260:28:28

Well, it's looking good for these two, because they paid £55,

0:28:280:28:31

so a profit beckons there.

0:28:310:28:34

-Absolutely.

-And the third item, very stylish, aren't they?

0:28:340:28:37

Those four Scandinavian part-enamel spoons.

0:28:370:28:41

Now, Richard thinks that this is going to give them the biggest profit.

0:28:410:28:44

-What do you think?

-The Scandinavian market is a popular one at the moment,

0:28:440:28:47

so I would say £25 to £40 is the best bet for them.

0:28:470:28:51

It's all looking good for this couple, because they spent £15,

0:28:510:28:54

so whether they're going to need their bonus buy, well,

0:28:540:28:58

we're going to have to wait and see, but in the meantime,

0:28:580:29:00

let's go and have a look at what it is.

0:29:000:29:02

Well, Reds, you left Charles a staggering £215 to go and play with,

0:29:030:29:10

-and play with it you did, Charlie.

-Yeah, I did, and sometimes, Eric,

0:29:100:29:13

you've got to just go for the unusual,

0:29:130:29:16

-so I found this.

-Oh, my goodness!

0:29:160:29:18

Look at that, Richard. Richard, just look at this object.

0:29:180:29:21

It's a real work of art, and what's lovely is it's dated,

0:29:210:29:26

there, look, 1776,

0:29:260:29:28

and we're talking 13 years before the French revolution.

0:29:280:29:31

If it could talk, what could it tell us?

0:29:310:29:34

Well, essentially, it's a mangle.

0:29:340:29:35

-How much did you pay for it?

-Just feel it.

0:29:350:29:37

-For this piece of joy?

-THEY LAUGH

0:29:370:29:40

Just feel the tactile qualities.

0:29:400:29:42

-Richard, do you like it?

-Yeah, I mean, it's interesting, that's for sure,

0:29:420:29:46

-with all this decorative...

-Yes.

-How much did you pay for it again?

0:29:460:29:49

-Well, just feel the history...

-Charlie, Charlie, Charlie, just get to the point,

0:29:490:29:53

tell the lady how much you paid for it.

0:29:530:29:55

-Do you like it, Eric?

-I like it, but that's beside the point,

0:29:550:29:58

-how much did you pay for it?

-It cost...

0:29:580:30:02

It's all about speculating to really accumulate...

0:30:020:30:04

How much? How much?

0:30:040:30:05

£215. 215.

0:30:050:30:07

-£215?!

-Yes, yes.

-Let me have another feel of this.

0:30:070:30:10

-Wow.

-And don't wallop me on the head with it!

0:30:100:30:13

Give it back to Charlie and get our money back!

0:30:130:30:15

THEY LAUGH

0:30:150:30:16

It's something which, again, could make £100, who knows?

0:30:160:30:20

It could make £400.

0:30:200:30:21

OK, well, remember, you two,

0:30:210:30:23

you don't have to make that decision until your first three items have

0:30:230:30:26

been sold, but meanwhile,

0:30:260:30:28

let's go and find out what our auctioneer has to say about

0:30:280:30:32

Charles's historic bonus buy.

0:30:320:30:34

So here it is, there can't be many to the square mile in Lincolnshire,

0:30:360:30:40

but one mangle board.

0:30:400:30:41

We have erred on the side of caution with it,

0:30:410:30:44

because they do make a lot of copies of these,

0:30:440:30:46

so they're not always what they seem.

0:30:460:30:49

No, sometimes they can be earlier,

0:30:490:30:51

but then, somebody puts the date on at a later date, don't they?

0:30:510:30:55

-That's it, yes.

-Yeah.

0:30:550:30:56

But it does look to be of the period, there's plenty of wear there,

0:30:560:31:00

there is a bit of woodworm, as you'd expect,

0:31:000:31:02

so I'd say £80 to £120 and they should be good with that.

0:31:020:31:06

OK. £215 was spent on that item.

0:31:060:31:10

If they do go for it, it's in the balance, isn't it?

0:31:100:31:12

That's it, it is in the balance, but there may well be somebody out there

0:31:120:31:15

wanting to take the risk on it.

0:31:150:31:17

So, that's the Reds, now for the Blues.

0:31:170:31:20

And the first item is the mid-20th century enamel bread bin.

0:31:200:31:24

I can tell you this is the one that Rick thinks is going to give them

0:31:240:31:28

the biggest profit, but what do you think, Kirsty?

0:31:280:31:31

It's a nice 20th century one there.

0:31:310:31:33

Obviously, it still has a purpose, people still use bread bins.

0:31:330:31:36

It is a nice example of that one.

0:31:360:31:38

We've given it an auction estimate of £20 to £30,

0:31:380:31:41

which I think is definitely doable for them.

0:31:410:31:43

OK, well, they paid £28 for it, so that could be a goer.

0:31:430:31:47

Item number two is the West German fat lava vase.

0:31:470:31:53

It's big, it's bright and it's reasonable, isn't it?

0:31:530:31:56

It is reasonable. Obviously,

0:31:560:31:58

the fat lava is the phrase that everybody looks for,

0:31:580:32:00

so we've given it an auction estimate of £10 to £30,

0:32:000:32:04

so that should achieve that.

0:32:040:32:05

OK, well, they paid £50 for it,

0:32:050:32:09

but you do get a lot of vase for your money, don't you?

0:32:090:32:11

-You do, yeah, and it is a large example, so there may well be.

-It is.

0:32:110:32:15

So item number three is our metal-cased aeroplane light

0:32:150:32:19

and "industrial brutal" is the usual heading.

0:32:190:32:24

Big business in this part of the world?

0:32:240:32:25

Still popular, obviously it is a mismatch,

0:32:250:32:27

the base is most likely a surveyor's tripod

0:32:270:32:30

and they've added the later light on top.

0:32:300:32:33

Well, it's got a certain amount of decorative appeal, hasn't it?

0:32:330:32:36

-It has.

-But you wouldn't want it in the corner of your house, would you?

0:32:360:32:40

I'm not sure actually, I think I probably would.

0:32:400:32:42

Oh, my goodness me! I forget how young you are and how old I am!

0:32:420:32:46

So, auction estimate-wise, we have given it £40 to £60,

0:32:460:32:49

but I wouldn't be surprised if it did just a little bit better than that.

0:32:490:32:53

But it's going to have to work very, very hard,

0:32:530:32:54

because they paid £190 for it,

0:32:540:32:58

so they could take it on the chin with that one, couldn't they?

0:32:580:33:00

They could. There might be a little loss on there,

0:33:000:33:02

but they shouldn't be too far away.

0:33:020:33:05

Well, it strikes me that our team may be in need of their bonus buy,

0:33:050:33:09

so let's take a look at it.

0:33:090:33:11

So, gentlemen, you left our Tim £32.

0:33:130:33:16

Tim, you said you were going out there to find something that would please both the Blues.

0:33:160:33:22

-Tough challenge.

-Yes.

0:33:220:33:25

But I think I've done it. Would you like to see it?

0:33:250:33:27

-Yes.

-Here we go. What do you think?

0:33:270:33:31

Oh, you look underwhelmed.

0:33:310:33:33

THEY LAUGH

0:33:330:33:35

-Is it an ashtray?

-Well, I would call it a pin dish.

0:33:350:33:38

It reminds me a bit of the vase we bought.

0:33:380:33:40

Yes, yes, very true.

0:33:400:33:41

Retro, colourful, funky.

0:33:410:33:43

Do people use pins?

0:33:430:33:45

Well, what would you use it for?

0:33:450:33:47

-Perhaps a pot plant on there, or something?

-Or even maybe would you just pop your keys,

0:33:470:33:50

or loose change at the end of the day, just by the door as you go out.

0:33:500:33:53

-Yeah.

-No, no, you can't do that to a beautiful pot like that,

0:33:530:33:59

it's to be admired.

0:33:590:34:00

Look, that's a lovely piece and it's so period.

0:34:000:34:03

-It is. Well, who do you think it's by?

-Well, it's probably German, but...

0:34:030:34:06

Well, it's actually British, one of my favourite studios, Poole Pottery.

0:34:060:34:11

-Have a feel of it. You will see the condition's great.

-Mm-hm.

0:34:110:34:14

-Good quality.

-It's heavier than I thought.

0:34:140:34:16

How much did you pay for that?

0:34:160:34:17

Well, I paid £15, which I don't think's bad,

0:34:170:34:20

because it's real quality.

0:34:200:34:22

There's a definite chance for a bit of profit in this, no doubt.

0:34:220:34:24

So how much do you think we could make on that then, Tim?

0:34:240:34:27

Well, look, it is a small piece, but I think we can maybe make a tenner.

0:34:270:34:30

The thing to remember, gentlemen,

0:34:300:34:32

is the fact that you don't have to make your minds up now,

0:34:320:34:34

but meanwhile, let's find out what our auctioneer has to say about

0:34:340:34:38

Tim's Poole Pottery dish.

0:34:380:34:40

One bonus buy, small but perfectly formed, you might say.

0:34:410:34:46

Absolutely. Nice Poole little pottery pin dish there, nice design.

0:34:460:34:52

I mean, it's got that retro look, hasn't it?

0:34:520:34:54

Sort of 1960s, '70s.

0:34:540:34:56

It has, typical of that sort of style.

0:34:560:34:58

Studio pottery again, so very popular.

0:34:580:35:01

We've put an auction estimate on it of £20 to £30,

0:35:010:35:04

which I would say it should easily achieve.

0:35:040:35:06

Yeah, good news really, in so far as Tim went out and paid £15 for it,

0:35:060:35:11

so £20 and £30 is very good news.

0:35:110:35:14

So what about the auction, who's taking it?

0:35:140:35:16

-That will be me.

-Excellent. Well, in Kirsty we trust.

0:35:160:35:21

170, 180, 190, 200, 220?

0:35:210:35:26

So I need to know, are you regulars at auction houses?

0:35:280:35:32

Er, no, not really, I've been to a few, but generally car auctions actually.

0:35:320:35:37

-Oh, right. OK. Lana, what about you?

-This is my first time ever,

0:35:370:35:40

-so I'm really, really, really excited.

-Oh, good! Well, listen,

0:35:400:35:42

we've got your first lot coming up,

0:35:420:35:44

it's the early 20th century pottery shoe, it's coming up now.

0:35:440:35:47

And who will start me at £20?

0:35:470:35:49

-Come on. It's novelty.

-Come on.

0:35:490:35:51

10? £10?

0:35:510:35:54

Five then, surely?

0:35:540:35:55

Five we have, and eight anywhere now?

0:35:550:35:57

-Come on.

-Eight anywhere now?

0:35:570:35:59

Are we all sure, then? Is it going for five?

0:35:590:36:02

-Gavel's raised.

-I don't believe it.

0:36:020:36:04

-Oh, no.

-So you are minus 10

0:36:040:36:07

to start, but anyway, the next item coming up

0:36:070:36:11

is the mid-Victorian pendant.

0:36:110:36:12

Here we go. Good luck, team. The comeback is on.

0:36:120:36:15

And I have got bids on the book

0:36:150:36:16

and we're starting with me at £40.

0:36:160:36:19

OK, come on!

0:36:190:36:20

42, 45, 48,

0:36:200:36:22

bid 50, five, 60, five, 70.

0:36:220:36:25

-We're in business!

-We're on, we're on.

-80. And five.

0:36:250:36:28

80 is with me, and Five anywhere now?

0:36:280:36:31

-Come on.

-Five anywhere now?

0:36:310:36:33

Are we all sure then? We're on the selling on the commission bid at 80?

0:36:330:36:36

GAVEL BANGS

0:36:360:36:38

You've just made yourselves £25 of profit.

0:36:380:36:40

Takes us to a total of plus £15.

0:36:400:36:44

-That's good, we've come back.

-OK?

0:36:440:36:46

So next item, the spoons.

0:36:460:36:48

-Here they come.

-The set of Scandinavian spoons there,

0:36:480:36:51

and I have got £30 to start me.

0:36:510:36:54

£30!

0:36:540:36:56

-We've doubled up!

-32, 35, 38 now?

0:36:560:36:58

-Here we go. Come on!

-At 35 I have, 38 anywhere now?

0:36:580:37:02

35 I have, and 38 is on the net.

0:37:020:37:04

-40 anywhere now?

-Yes!

0:37:040:37:05

At 38 is on the net.

0:37:050:37:07

And 40 anywhere now?

0:37:070:37:08

Are we all sure then? Are we resting on the net at 38?

0:37:080:37:12

Good work.

0:37:120:37:13

38, OK, lovely jubbly.

0:37:130:37:17

So, you've just made yourselves there £23,

0:37:170:37:20

you're ahead of the game, all right?

0:37:200:37:23

You now have to make your decision about your bonus buy.

0:37:230:37:26

Have you been thinking about it?

0:37:260:37:27

We have been thinking about it.

0:37:270:37:29

-OK. And?

-Thinking two minds about it.

0:37:290:37:31

And we love Charlie and we love the item and that's why it's a no.

0:37:310:37:36

-It's a no?

-It's a no. It's a no. OK, well...

0:37:360:37:40

I can tell you, the auction estimate was 80-120.

0:37:400:37:42

Bearing in mind that Charlie paid 215, they may be very right,

0:37:420:37:45

they may be very wrong. We're just about to find out.

0:37:450:37:48

And I have got £50 to start me, Five anywhere now?

0:37:480:37:52

-Come on, let's go.

-At 50, it's with me, and 55, bid 60, and five now?

0:37:520:37:56

At 60, I have.

0:37:560:37:58

It's probably the wrong market, that's my excuse.

0:37:580:38:00

I think it's probably... Come on!

0:38:000:38:02

We are all out then. We're on the book at 60...

0:38:020:38:06

-60.

-Thankfully I wasn't paying!

-Oh, well, I've got to say, Reds,

0:38:060:38:10

quite a canny decision on your part not to go with it,

0:38:100:38:13

-but either way...

-We still love you, Charlie, you know that.

0:38:130:38:16

-Thank you, Lana.

-The good news is that you're plus £38 ahead of the

0:38:160:38:19

game. That being said,

0:38:190:38:21

do not say another word to the Blues.

0:38:210:38:23

So, Blues, do you have any experience of auctions?

0:38:350:38:37

-No. No.

-Is there a feeling of excitement here?

0:38:370:38:41

Oh, yes!

0:38:410:38:42

-Yes!

-Yeah, it's good for the soul.

0:38:420:38:44

The first item coming up is the mid-20th century bread bin.

0:38:440:38:48

-It's coming up now.

-Start me at £30 for this one.

0:38:480:38:51

£30? 20?

0:38:510:38:53

Come on, more than that.

0:38:530:38:55

10?

0:38:550:38:56

10, surely, for the kitchenalia.

0:38:560:38:58

£10?

0:38:580:39:00

Five I have at the back.

0:39:000:39:01

And eight bid. And 10?

0:39:010:39:03

10 bid. And 12?

0:39:030:39:04

12 is on the net.

0:39:040:39:06

15 now? No?

0:39:060:39:07

15 is on the net then.

0:39:070:39:09

Are we all sure then? Are we selling on the net at 15?

0:39:090:39:13

-Oh!

-Oh, no!

0:39:130:39:15

That is a start of a minus 13, OK.

0:39:150:39:19

We've got your mid-20th century West German fat lava vase.

0:39:190:39:23

-Here it comes.

-£15 to start me, 18 anywhere now?

0:39:230:39:27

15, I have. And 18 and 20, 22, 25, 28 now, 30 at the back of the room.

0:39:270:39:35

32, 35, 38, and 40 now, surely?

0:39:350:39:39

And 40, are you sure you don't want to go another one?

0:39:390:39:41

At 38 we have on the net. 40 anywhere now?

0:39:410:39:43

Are we all sure? Are we all finished on the internet

0:39:430:39:45

and in the room at 40?

0:39:450:39:48

£40. Well, you paid 50,

0:39:480:39:51

so a minus 10.

0:39:510:39:53

Right, so, the next item is your aeroplane light.

0:39:530:39:55

You paid £190 for it, Ivan.

0:39:550:39:59

-Did you not?

-He did.

-He did.

0:39:590:40:02

So, let's just wait and see.

0:40:020:40:04

-Here it is.

-Who will start me at £80 for it, surely?

0:40:040:40:07

£80?

0:40:070:40:08

50?

0:40:080:40:10

-What?

-40?

0:40:100:40:12

40, I have at the back of the room. And two anywhere now?

0:40:120:40:15

45. 48. Bid 50?

0:40:150:40:18

And five. Bid 60.

0:40:180:40:20

65. 70 bid.

0:40:200:40:22

75. And 80?

0:40:220:40:25

It's our highest selling item!

0:40:250:40:27

90 bid. 95. 100.

0:40:270:40:29

-Come on.

-100, 110, 120, 130, 140, and 150, 160?

0:40:290:40:36

No. At 150, I have in the front.

0:40:360:40:38

160 anywhere now?

0:40:380:40:40

Are we all sure then? We're in the front at 150.

0:40:400:40:45

-Whoa!

-Exciting, though, no?

-150, it deserved better, didn't it?

0:40:450:40:50

It really did.

0:40:500:40:51

Minus £40, which gives us a total of minus £63.

0:40:510:40:58

So, we're now at the decision time when it comes to the bonus buy.

0:40:580:41:02

I don't want to influence you, but what have you got to lose?

0:41:020:41:04

THEY LAUGH

0:41:040:41:06

So, do I take that as a yay?

0:41:060:41:07

-Yes.

-A yay!

0:41:070:41:09

Now, listen, Tim paid £15 for it.

0:41:090:41:11

-Yeah.

-The auctioneer said £20 to £30.

0:41:110:41:13

-Ah!

-So, let's just wait and see.

0:41:130:41:16

-Here it is.

-Who will start me at £30 for this one, surely?

0:41:160:41:19

£30? £20 for the Poole pottery.

0:41:190:41:22

£20?

0:41:220:41:23

£10? At 10 we have. And 12 anywhere now?

0:41:230:41:26

12 bid. 15, 18?

0:41:260:41:29

No, 15 I have at the back of the room then.

0:41:290:41:31

18 anywhere now?

0:41:310:41:32

Are we all sure then? Are we selling at the back of the room at 15...?

0:41:320:41:35

15!

0:41:360:41:38

It doesn't make a jot of difference,

0:41:380:41:40

but it does give you a relatively

0:41:400:41:43

respectable minus 63.

0:41:430:41:44

-Yeah.

-OK, anyway, not a word to the Reds, obviously.

0:41:440:41:47

-Of course not.

-And I'll see you boys later.

0:41:470:41:49

Well, this is not a game of winners and losers,

0:42:000:42:02

it's a game of winners and runners-up.

0:42:020:42:04

And I have to tell you that today's runners-up are the Blue team!

0:42:040:42:09

-No!

-Whoo!

0:42:090:42:11

The Blue team. I'm so sorry, boys, insofar as it was

0:42:110:42:17

a bit of a grim start, I'm afraid, it was minus £63.

0:42:170:42:21

But have you enjoyed yourselves?

0:42:210:42:22

-Yes.

-Yeah! It's being here that matters.

0:42:220:42:25

So, Red team, what do we say?

0:42:250:42:27

-Woohoo!

-I can tell you, you made yourselves a profit of £38.

0:42:270:42:33

I hate to say it, Charlie, but it could've been so different

0:42:330:42:35

if they'd gone with that bonus buy.

0:42:350:42:37

Indeed. I'll say no more.

0:42:370:42:39

OK. So, it gives me great pleasure to present you with £38, OK?

0:42:390:42:46

All right, don't spend it all at once.

0:42:460:42:49

-Whoo!

-So, has everybody had a good time?

0:42:490:42:51

-ALL:

-Yes.

-That's what we need to know.

0:42:510:42:53
