Today, we're in Epsom in Surrey,

0:00:030:00:04

where a 17th-century discovery saw visitor numbers boom.

0:00:040:00:09

In 1618, a natural spring was discovered right here

0:00:090:00:15

and the water was found to contain a naturally healing mineral compound,

0:00:150:00:20

and once the water is evaporated...

0:00:200:00:23

..you get these.

0:00:250:00:26

Epsom salts.

0:00:260:00:28

Even now, bathing in this stuff is said to cure

0:00:280:00:32

all sorts of aches and pains.

0:00:320:00:35

But no time to relax,

0:00:350:00:37

both our teams have a spring in their step and are hoping to make

0:00:370:00:40

some interesting discoveries of their own.

0:00:400:00:43

So, let's go bargain hunting!

0:00:430:00:46

Welcome to Epsom Racecourse Antiques And Collectables Fair.

0:01:120:01:16

With around 100 stalls overflowing with purchasing possibilities,

0:01:160:01:21

will our teams bag a bargain today?

0:01:210:01:24

Let's have a peek at what's coming up.

0:01:240:01:26

The Reds are spending big.

0:01:290:01:30

We've already bought one quite expensive item, haven't we?

0:01:300:01:32

I don't want to leave Danny with nothing. Don't worry about me!

0:01:320:01:35

Don't worry about me!

0:01:350:01:37

While the Blues' knowledge is put to the test.

0:01:370:01:39

What date is it? Come on, I'm going to test you now.

0:01:390:01:41

Oh! Oh, my goodness! You've had one hour of training.

0:01:410:01:44

It's definitely Victorian.

0:01:440:01:45

And there's plenty of excitement at the auction!

0:01:450:01:48

Yes!

0:01:490:01:50

But that's all for later - let's meet today's teams.

0:01:530:01:56

For the Reds, we have married couple Andrew and Stephanie.

0:01:560:02:00

And for the Blues, we have friends Graham and Julie.

0:02:000:02:04

Hello, everyone!

0:02:040:02:06

ALL: Hello!

0:02:060:02:07

It's lovely to have you along.

0:02:070:02:08

Now, Reds first.

0:02:080:02:10

So, Andrew, it says here that you're a trained actor.

0:02:100:02:14

Tell us about that.

0:02:140:02:15

Well, Anita, it was something I always wanted to do

0:02:150:02:17

when I was young, but I went into the family business,

0:02:170:02:21

we had a clothing company.

0:02:210:02:23

Then we got out of that about ten years ago and I thought,

0:02:230:02:26

"What do you do?" You go back to what you wanted to do

0:02:260:02:28

when you were young.

0:02:280:02:29

So, I went off to East 15 and did a MA year's acting course,

0:02:290:02:34

and it's been marvellous fun ever since.

0:02:340:02:36

Right, do people ask you for your autograph?

0:02:360:02:39

Yes, one. One did, once, yeah.

0:02:390:02:42

Was it this lady here?

0:02:420:02:43

It wasn't, actually, no.

0:02:430:02:44

It was her mum! It was her mum!

0:02:440:02:45

So, Stephanie, you and Andrew work together?

0:02:470:02:51

We do. A husband-and-wife team.

0:02:510:02:53

I know!

0:02:530:02:54

It's frightening, isn't it?

0:02:540:02:56

Tell me what you do.

0:02:560:02:57

We run after-school clubs where we teach children how to do things

0:02:570:03:00

with computers, like stop animation, Lego robotics,

0:03:000:03:05

video game labs where they design their own video games,

0:03:050:03:08

and it's amazing. The children love it.

0:03:080:03:09

But you're also an adventurous type of woman.

0:03:090:03:13

I am. You like travelling.

0:03:130:03:15

So, tell us about it. Have you got any exciting trips planned?

0:03:150:03:18

I do. We're going to trek part of the Wall of China

0:03:180:03:20

for our local breast unit charity. Wow!

0:03:200:03:22

How many thousands of miles might that be?

0:03:220:03:25

It's too many for me to walk, but we're going to do 70 of it.

0:03:250:03:28

So, you guys live together and work together,

0:03:280:03:31

but how will you be as a team out there, shopping at the fair?

0:03:310:03:36

I'll decide, Andrew will haggle.

0:03:360:03:39

He'll do what he's told, really.

0:03:390:03:41

Sounds like a plan!

0:03:410:03:43

And take the advice of the expert as well. Yeah, absolutely.

0:03:430:03:46

Because we don't really know what we're looking for! No!

0:03:460:03:49

Now, over to the Blues.

0:03:490:03:50

We have Julie and Graham, who are best friends.

0:03:500:03:54

Yes. Now, Graham, how did you two meet?

0:03:540:03:57

In Findon village, we have a very, very good garden association.

0:03:570:04:01

Ah, gardening!

0:04:010:04:03

And so, I was encouraged by several people, including Julie,

0:04:030:04:07

to join the club, because I used to work at a local garden centre.

0:04:070:04:12

So, Graham, what did you do before that?

0:04:120:04:15

I worked at Heathrow, for one of the big airlines there, for 31 years.

0:04:150:04:21

Was that an exciting and glamorous job in those days?

0:04:210:04:26

Anita, I'd do it all again, absolutely.

0:04:260:04:29

Ah, I love it! Just as it was.

0:04:290:04:31

It was absolutely fantastic.

0:04:310:04:33

That sounds absolutely terrific.

0:04:330:04:35

Now, Julie, tell me, what do you do for a living?

0:04:350:04:38

Well, not so exciting, I'm afraid.

0:04:380:04:40

I work for the local authority.

0:04:400:04:41

Right. And I'm a licensing assistant...

0:04:410:04:44

But, I believe that underneath that respectability,

0:04:440:04:49

there is an exotic woman there, with an exotic hobby!

0:04:490:04:55

Tell us about that!

0:04:550:04:57

Well, I've been teaching belly dance now, Egyptian belly dance,

0:04:570:05:01

for quite a few years.

0:05:010:05:05

Now, I wonder, and I hope you don't mind,

0:05:050:05:07

but could you teach us a couple of wee moves?

0:05:070:05:11

Are you up for it, guys?!

0:05:110:05:12

Yes!

0:05:120:05:14

OK, give us a move.

0:05:140:05:15

OK. Well, first of all, we have some snaky arms.

0:05:150:05:19

Snaky arms, folks, snaky arms!

0:05:190:05:22

Nice and elegant. Right, OK.

0:05:220:05:24

And we have some cheeky shoulder shimmies.

0:05:240:05:27

Well, that was great fun. That was smashing. Thank you.

0:05:320:05:35

I'm going to practise afterwards.

0:05:350:05:37

Good.

0:05:370:05:38

Well, what I have to do at this moment, then, is give you some dosh.

0:05:380:05:42

300 smackeroos for the Reds.

0:05:420:05:45

Ooh! I'll have that.

0:05:450:05:46

And 300 for you. Thank you.

0:05:460:05:49

Your experts await, so off you go!

0:05:490:05:53

Well, will our teams be dancing with delight when the hammer comes down

0:05:540:05:59

at the auction?

0:05:590:06:00

All our teams need now are their experts.

0:06:020:06:05

Baby-sitting the Reds, it's Danny Sebastien.

0:06:050:06:08

And flying high with the Blues, it's David Harper.

0:06:090:06:12

OK, then, guys, what are we looking for today? Stephanie?

0:06:150:06:17

I'd like something beautiful that has a bit of a story behind it.

0:06:170:06:20

Hopefully, a nice piece of silver.

0:06:200:06:22

Well, I like things you can use,

0:06:220:06:23

a working antique, something practical.

0:06:230:06:25

Jewellery, nice piece of jewellery? A piece of jewellery?

0:06:250:06:27

And what's the aim, Julie? Ooh, to get the Golden Gavel. Ha-ha!

0:06:270:06:31

Teams, your time starts now.

0:06:310:06:33

OK, it sounds like we're going to have some great fun.

0:06:330:06:35

Let's get going.

0:06:350:06:37

Are you ready? Yes! We're ready. Go - that direction! Right.

0:06:370:06:39

They're off! Best of luck, teams!

0:06:390:06:42

Have the Reds found something beautiful from their shopping list already?

0:06:420:06:45

What are you looking at there?

0:06:450:06:47

I was just looking at these items.

0:06:470:06:49

Can you tell us a little bit about them?

0:06:490:06:50

It looks like Limoges, which is French porcelain.

0:06:500:06:53

Quite nice, quite desirable.

0:06:530:06:55

Pill boxes?

0:06:550:06:57

Hmm, we got one for your mum for Christmas once.

0:06:570:06:59

Did we? Well, I did. Did she use it?! No!

0:06:590:07:02

Well, this is the thing. Is it overly practical? Yeah.

0:07:020:07:04

Probably not. OK.

0:07:040:07:06

I think we've got to keep moving on.

0:07:060:07:07

Let's move on. OK. Time's going to run out on us. Let's go.

0:07:070:07:10

That's right, Danny, the clock's ticking.

0:07:100:07:12

Now, what is it, then, that you like about this?

0:07:120:07:15

It's the style and also the quality, erm, the look about it.

0:07:150:07:20

Yeah, what's really quite interesting about this is,

0:07:200:07:22

even though it was made in 1952, if you look at the style,

0:07:220:07:26

it could have really easily been made much earlier. Right.

0:07:260:07:30

?92. What are your thoughts?

0:07:300:07:32

75? In auction, it's probably 50-70.

0:07:320:07:34

I don't think she's going to come down. But I don't think...

0:07:340:07:37

No, I don't think she is.

0:07:370:07:38

I think this lady has a really good piece of stock.

0:07:380:07:41

She has a lot of quality. And when you've got a good piece of stock,

0:07:410:07:44

you don't give it away.

0:07:440:07:45

No. You don't.

0:07:450:07:46

So, we're going to leave this for now.

0:07:460:07:48

I think we put that on the back burner. OK.

0:07:480:07:50

While the Blues continue their search,

0:07:500:07:52

the Reds have spotted something on their travels.

0:07:520:07:54

Wow, that is a big globe, isn't it?

0:07:540:07:56

You'd need a lot of living room space for that, wouldn't you?

0:07:560:07:58

Well, a nice office, something like that.

0:07:580:08:00

It's all about the quality with globes though, isn't it, really?

0:08:000:08:03

Yes, and that doesn't look like a bad one standing from here.

0:08:030:08:06

Grab hold of it, grab hold of it. Let's have...

0:08:060:08:08

OK. Am I allowed to do that?

0:08:080:08:10

OK. Is it heavy?

0:08:100:08:11

It's not heavy, but I'm just being careful with it.

0:08:110:08:13

The last thing I want to do is drop it. Pop it on here.

0:08:130:08:16

Got a nice mahogany base on it.

0:08:160:08:17

OK.

0:08:170:08:18

Right here, it's got on it, Philips' Terrestrial Globe.

0:08:180:08:22

Philips was a big maker in the 1950s and 1960s of globes.

0:08:220:08:27

Great. They normally came in metal, in, like, tin.

0:08:270:08:32

This one's got no tin on it at all.

0:08:320:08:34

So I think the tin ones were more desirable, but this one,

0:08:340:08:37

it was probably in a school back in the day.

0:08:370:08:40

I suppose the million-dollar question is what, at auction,

0:08:400:08:43

what could we expect?

0:08:430:08:44

It's marked up at ?150.

0:08:450:08:47

?100, yeah.

0:08:470:08:48

We can always try and trim it down a little bit.

0:08:480:08:50

OK. So, we're really wanting a Golden Gavel.

0:08:500:08:54

This is marked up at 150. OK.

0:08:540:08:56

What can we do on this price?

0:08:560:08:58

What would be your really best, best, best price?

0:08:580:09:01

Well, I know in auction this would be somewhere between 120-180.

0:09:010:09:05

So, I can go down to, say, 125?

0:09:050:09:09

I mean, to be honest, I'd be happier if we could get it around

0:09:090:09:11

the 100 mark, but it's not going to happen.

0:09:110:09:13

I think 110, we're going to stand a chance at auction

0:09:130:09:17

of making a profit.

0:09:170:09:18

Yeah, go on, then - 110!

0:09:180:09:20

Thank you! Thank you very much indeed!

0:09:200:09:21

What a deal! With a bit of help from Danny,

0:09:210:09:23

the Reds have bagged their first item.

0:09:230:09:25

I think there might be a chance of well making a good profit

0:09:250:09:28

on that at auction. I love it, it's beautiful.

0:09:280:09:30

But whatever happens, we do love it. Yeah. Well, that's half the thing.

0:09:300:09:33

Mmm. Yes. And, of course, secondly, we're one buy in.

0:09:330:09:36

OK! Fantastic.

0:09:360:09:37

Let's keep going. Yes!

0:09:370:09:39

So, it's 1-0 to the Reds.

0:09:390:09:41

Meanwhile, the Blues are getting stuck in.

0:09:410:09:43

Would you use that, Julie, with your hay? Would you?

0:09:430:09:46

No, definitely not!

0:09:460:09:47

No? I wouldn't use it in the stable, but I think...

0:09:470:09:49

Have you got a horse, Julie? Yes, I have.

0:09:490:09:51

Oh, right! Well, you need one of those desperately!

0:09:510:09:53

No, but I think they look quite nice sort of... On a wall.

0:09:530:09:56

..on a wall. Yes.

0:09:560:09:58

If you've got an old cottage or something.

0:09:580:09:59

OK. That one in particular is quite a nice shape.

0:09:590:10:02

Well, let's have a look. Let's handle it, Julie.

0:10:020:10:04

Pull it out and tell me all about it. Tell me what you're feeling. OK.

0:10:040:10:07

So, quite often these come across from France, don't they?

0:10:070:10:10

Yes, yeah. No, it's Spanish. Spanish?

0:10:100:10:12

It's all from Spain.

0:10:120:10:13

Nice feature that it's all one piece of wood.

0:10:130:10:15

Yes, fascinating, actually.

0:10:150:10:17

Gives it a bit more quality, I think.

0:10:170:10:18

It's incredible, isn't it? That nature can be so stunningly useful

0:10:180:10:21

and beautiful at the same time.

0:10:210:10:23

Yes. Yep. So, that has not...

0:10:230:10:24

It may have been manipulated slightly with heat, just to move,

0:10:240:10:27

but that is a root that has been formed naturally

0:10:270:10:29

to make into a pitchfork.

0:10:290:10:30

It's really nice. I like that.

0:10:300:10:32

It's great! I like the shape.

0:10:320:10:34

What would be your best on it?

0:10:340:10:35

What kind of wood, would you say? Ooh, I don't know.

0:10:350:10:37

Best? What have I got on there? 45.

0:10:370:10:39

45. We're looking for a really good price.

0:10:390:10:41

I would say probably about 28?

0:10:410:10:43

Oof! 28, no.

0:10:430:10:45

No. That's too...too cheap.

0:10:450:10:47

Erm...

0:10:470:10:48

Do it for 30. 30? All right.

0:10:490:10:51

Not a moment wasted - 11 minutes in, and the Blues are off the mark.

0:10:510:10:55

Come on, we've bought a pitchfork. We're off.

0:10:550:10:57

Now, what has caught Stephanie's eye?

0:10:570:11:00

I love a bit of kitsch.

0:11:000:11:02

OK.

0:11:020:11:03

I know you love a bit of... I'm not convinced. What does Danny think?

0:11:030:11:06

What do you think? Erm, well, I think Babycham, 1970s,

0:11:060:11:10

very popular drink.

0:11:100:11:11

Right. But I've never seen...

0:11:110:11:13

Would that be, like, a nibble dish or something?

0:11:130:11:16

I've never seen this little dish before.

0:11:160:11:18

Hello, there! Hello.

0:11:180:11:20

No, they're not for peanuts.

0:11:200:11:21

Originally, they were ashtrays and you'd find them on the bars.

0:11:210:11:24

They're made by Beswick.

0:11:240:11:26

The cigarettes would be obviously laid in there. I see it now. Yes.

0:11:260:11:29

What is the price you've got on it today?

0:11:290:11:31

The price on this is 28.

0:11:310:11:32

I think we need to keep looking. OK.

0:11:320:11:34

And maybe have this in reserve, if we need it. OK.

0:11:340:11:37

Good thought. Let's go.

0:11:370:11:39

Well done.

0:11:390:11:40

Decisive thinking by the Reds.

0:11:400:11:42

Meanwhile, the Blues are homing in on a red vase.

0:11:420:11:46

I like that, but...

0:11:460:11:47

Oh, tell me about that then.

0:11:470:11:49

Well, it's a Japanese thing, isn't it? Enamel.

0:11:490:11:52

Cloisonne. That's it, cloisonne.

0:11:520:11:54

I think for safety, you're going to say it's early to mid-20th century.

0:11:540:11:58

It could, if you were very lucky, be 19th century, a Meiji period thing,

0:11:580:12:03

1868 to 1912, which is the period of the master cloisonne makers in Japan.

0:12:030:12:10

But there's no markings on the base, which is a crying shame.

0:12:100:12:14

What sort of price do you have on the cloisonne?

0:12:140:12:17

I'm asking 95 for it.

0:12:170:12:19

Right. Yeah.

0:12:190:12:20

At that level, I don't think it's for us. OK.

0:12:200:12:23

But a lovely one to handle. OK.

0:12:230:12:24

Thank you.

0:12:240:12:26

Back to the Reds, who are, coincidentally,

0:12:260:12:28

also looking at cloisonne.

0:12:280:12:29

These caught my eye.

0:12:290:12:31

Is there anything you could tell me about these, Danny?

0:12:310:12:33

What we've got here is some nice little pots, looks Chinese,

0:12:330:12:36

and there's a process, cloisonne, which is enamelling on metalwork.

0:12:360:12:42

What's the price on them?

0:12:420:12:43

Oh, 125.

0:12:430:12:45

125.

0:12:450:12:46

I think they're quite modern, to be honest.

0:12:460:12:48

And I think 125 is just a little bit too rich for us. OK.

0:12:480:12:52

Quite nice...

0:12:520:12:54

too rich.

0:12:540:12:55

Move on. OK. Yes. OK.

0:12:550:12:57

But both teams still have plenty of cash to splash,

0:12:570:13:00

and still at the same stall, the Blues have found some silver.

0:13:000:13:04

What do you think about that?

0:13:040:13:06

Very, very pretty.

0:13:060:13:07

So, what is it?

0:13:070:13:09

Well, I think it's called a vinaigrette.

0:13:090:13:11

Good. Excellent. Yes? Yeah.

0:13:110:13:12

It would be filled with something sort of floral and fragrant... Yes.

0:13:120:13:16

..to sort of waft under your nose

0:13:160:13:18

when you're going through smelly areas.

0:13:180:13:20

18th century, the period of George III.

0:13:200:13:24

What sort of money is it?

0:13:240:13:25

Erm, I'm looking for 150.

0:13:250:13:27

150.

0:13:270:13:28

Well, the thing is, again, here we go, we're picking good things.

0:13:280:13:32

And, you know, as an object made 250 years ago out of solid silver,

0:13:320:13:37

with all that kind of social history to it, it's no money.

0:13:370:13:40

It's no money.

0:13:400:13:41

Possibly too pricey for our savvy Blue team,

0:13:410:13:44

but the stall-holder has something else.

0:13:440:13:47

Yeah, I've got another piece that might be of interest to you.

0:13:470:13:51

This might have been modified.

0:13:510:13:53

This is by Samuel Pemberton, late 18th century, and normally,

0:13:530:13:56

when they're this shape, they contain either a scent bottle

0:13:560:13:59

or an etui, but sometime in its life,

0:13:590:14:05

it's had a vinaigrette grill put in it.

0:14:050:14:07

How interesting.

0:14:070:14:08

Isn't that sweet? I could let you have that reasonably,

0:14:080:14:11

which you might stand a chance.

0:14:110:14:12

I'd do 50.

0:14:120:14:13

So it's 50 quid or nothing. You take it or you leave it.

0:14:130:14:16

It's one of those situations.

0:14:160:14:17

What's your instinct, Graham?

0:14:170:14:18

Well, I'm...

0:14:200:14:21

Down to 40, is what I was thinking.

0:14:210:14:23

That's awful.

0:14:230:14:24

He's awful, isn't he?

0:14:240:14:25

I'm losing money, but you can have it, cos I'd like you

0:14:250:14:28

to make a profit if you can.

0:14:280:14:29

Thank you, that would be wonderful. Shall we shake on that?

0:14:290:14:31

I think so. Julie, you happy? 40? Oh, yes.

0:14:310:14:33

There you go. Thank you. Thank you so much.

0:14:330:14:35

That's unbelievable. I mean, two very interesting buys.

0:14:350:14:38

We've got the hay fork and then a very refined piece of silver.

0:14:380:14:40

OK? Yep. Great.

0:14:400:14:42

Purchase two. On we go. Wonderful. Right.

0:14:420:14:44

Well done, Blues.

0:14:440:14:45

While the teams continue shopping,

0:14:450:14:47

I'm going to find out about the intriguing history

0:14:470:14:50

of the racecourse here at Epsom.

0:14:500:14:52

Today, I'm joined by Andrew Cooper who is head of racing here at Epsom.

0:14:590:15:05

Now, Andrew, tell me when horse racing started at this course.

0:15:050:15:10

Well, there's record of horse racing taking place on the downs here as

0:15:100:15:15

early as the 1660s.

0:15:150:15:16

But it really took off as a sport in the country and also in this local

0:15:160:15:21

area once salts were discovered in Epsom

0:15:210:15:23

and it became a popular spa town.

0:15:230:15:26

Yeah, Epsom salts, I know all about that.

0:15:260:15:29

Andrew, tell me about the Derby.

0:15:290:15:31

Well, the Derby is the most famous horse race in the world.

0:15:310:15:34

And there are 140 other races around the world that have copied our name,

0:15:340:15:39

but this is the one and only, historic, truly original Derby.

0:15:390:15:43

Now, that is a wonderful old bell. Tell me about that.

0:15:430:15:48

Well, this is the bell that was used

0:15:480:15:50

to signal the start of the Derby race

0:15:500:15:54

from its first running in 1780 to, we think, 1852.

0:15:540:15:59

So, on both sides of the course,

0:15:590:16:01

both at the start and on the grandstand side,

0:16:010:16:04

a bell was rung to signify that the race had taken place,

0:16:040:16:07

so the public knew that the race had actually started.

0:16:070:16:10

Andrew, can you tell me about these little dolls

0:16:100:16:13

and what do they have to do with the Derby?

0:16:130:16:15

Well, these Derby dolls, or penny woodens, as they're called,

0:16:150:16:19

became very popular in the 1800s

0:16:190:16:22

and their link to the Derby was that on the journey down from London

0:16:220:16:28

to Epsom racecourse, on very, very dusty roads at the time,

0:16:280:16:33

gentlemen in particular would wear

0:16:330:16:36

these little Derby doll trinkets in their hats.

0:16:360:16:40

In the hat band?

0:16:400:16:41

Yes, dressed in the colours of the horses that they were going to

0:16:410:16:45

support later in the day at the racecourse,

0:16:450:16:47

and were one of those little lucky tokens that became associated

0:16:470:16:51

with the Derby race in the mid-1800s.

0:16:510:16:54

Now, I know about this book,

0:16:540:16:56

Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management.

0:16:560:16:59

But what on earth has this got to do with Epsom racecourse?

0:16:590:17:03

Well, Isabella Beeton, as a teenage girl,

0:17:030:17:07

lived in the grandstand at Epsom racecourse.

0:17:070:17:10

Really? She moved in with her widowed mother,

0:17:100:17:14

who married the then clerk of the course and manager of the racecourse,

0:17:140:17:17

a gentleman called Henry Dorling.

0:17:170:17:19

That couple went on to have 13 children. 13?!

0:17:190:17:23

Having had eight from the previous marriages

0:17:230:17:25

and Isabella lived here in the grandstand.

0:17:250:17:28

Actually in the grandstand?

0:17:280:17:30

Indeed. She lived there, looking after all those younger siblings.

0:17:300:17:34

Isabella Beeton subsequently wrote the book in 1861, it was published,

0:17:340:17:38

it was a bestseller at the time and it's still in print now.

0:17:380:17:41

Andrew, thank you for telling us all these interesting facts about the

0:17:410:17:44

marvellous Epsom racecourse.

0:17:440:17:47

But meanwhile, it's time for us to check back in with the teams.

0:17:470:17:51

Back to it, and the teams are halfway through the shopping.

0:17:590:18:02

The Reds still need two items,

0:18:020:18:03

while the Blues are feeling at ease with just one item left to find.

0:18:030:18:08

I think we're doing OK, we've got two items in half an hour.

0:18:080:18:12

So now we can afford to relax

0:18:120:18:14

and have a good look around and see what we can come up with.

0:18:140:18:18

Not too much with the relaxation, not for the next 30 minutes, anyway.

0:18:180:18:22

OK.

0:18:220:18:23

While the Blues feel a bit more relaxed, the Reds are staying focused.

0:18:230:18:27

This box at the back here, what do you think that might be?

0:18:270:18:31

Well, we've got a nice little Victorian, I'd say late Victorian,

0:18:310:18:36

jewellery box. Got a little tray inside which is quite nice.

0:18:360:18:40

There's no key, but there is a little shield on top where you'd personalise it

0:18:400:18:44

and put, like, initials.

0:18:440:18:47

Good size. I mean, it looks like it's in great stead.

0:18:470:18:50

There's a little bit of damage at the front corner,

0:18:500:18:54

but it's been repaired very well by the looks of things.

0:18:540:18:57

So, Danny, I would buy this.

0:18:570:18:58

Do you think it's got a good chance of being popular at an auction?

0:18:580:19:01

Little boxes are always desirable, they're very commercial.

0:19:010:19:05

Doesn't necessarily have to be used in its original state.

0:19:050:19:09

Something like that could be on somebody's desk in an office,

0:19:090:19:11

and those little compartments can fit drawing pins, safety clips, stamps. You know, pens.

0:19:110:19:17

If you're collecting pens as well, nibs.

0:19:170:19:20

So I know they're very commercial.

0:19:200:19:22

What's your price on this?

0:19:220:19:24

The price is 95.

0:19:240:19:25

To take it to auction, it's a bit too rich.

0:19:250:19:28

Really, it wants to be between, say, ?60 to ?80.

0:19:280:19:33

That's going to stand us with a chance of making a profit.

0:19:330:19:35

OK. I mean, what is the absolute best you can do on it, sir?

0:19:350:19:38

The best on it would be 65.

0:19:380:19:40

Well, we've already bought one quite expensive item, haven't we?

0:19:400:19:44

I don't want to leave Danny with nothing.

0:19:440:19:47

Don't worry about me. Don't worry about me!

0:19:470:19:50

Would you go to ?60, as it doesn't have a key?

0:19:500:19:53

OK, I'll do it for 60.

0:19:530:19:54

Fantastic. I'd be happy to go with it at 60?

0:19:540:19:57

I'm happy. You're happy? Yes. OK.

0:19:570:19:59

Shake the man's hand. Thank you very much indeed.

0:19:590:20:02

Great negotiating skills from the Reds.

0:20:020:20:05

Meanwhile, the Blues are back on track and Julie has found some colourful jewellery.

0:20:050:20:10

So, why were you drawn to that? Tell us all about it.

0:20:100:20:12

Because it's the sort of jewellery that I think is very pretty.

0:20:120:20:16

It looks Edwardian, I don't know whether it is.

0:20:160:20:18

OK, yeah. You can see pearls and...

0:20:180:20:20

Very pretty. ..that sort of thing.

0:20:200:20:23

Let's have a look at it, then.

0:20:230:20:25

Is that the kind of thing that you would actually wear?

0:20:250:20:27

If I'm honest, only on special occasions.

0:20:270:20:29

That's fine. It's rather glamorous, isn't it?

0:20:290:20:31

What sort of price, money have we got on that?

0:20:310:20:34

195. Oh, gosh.

0:20:340:20:36

I mean, you haven't spent very much money.

0:20:360:20:39

No. But the endgame here is what?

0:20:390:20:41

Profit. For what reason?

0:20:410:20:43

Because we want to... To get the Golden Gavel. The Golden Gavel.

0:20:430:20:47

So I think maybe...

0:20:470:20:48

You're driven, aren't you? You're truly driven.

0:20:480:20:50

We'll have to say thank you very much, but no thank you.

0:20:500:20:53

The Blues are all about their Golden Gavel game plan,

0:20:530:20:57

while the Reds have a bit of time on their hands.

0:20:570:21:00

OK, so, this clock caught my eye.

0:21:000:21:03

I don't know if it's got any age to it.

0:21:030:21:05

To me, it looks to the style of the '60s or '70s.

0:21:050:21:08

What do you think? Maybe a little bit earlier. Oh.

0:21:080:21:11

Sort of, I'd say more '30s, '40s.

0:21:110:21:14

Mantel clock - nice. It looks like a burr walnut on the front.

0:21:140:21:20

I'm going to be honest with you,

0:21:200:21:22

I think the ticket price tells us what we've got here.

0:21:220:21:25

Not the most commercial.

0:21:250:21:27

Yeah. Nowadays, you want something a little bit more elaborate,

0:21:270:21:32

something a bit more striking.

0:21:320:21:33

OK. People don't necessarily put clocks on the mantelpiece any more.

0:21:330:21:37

No, I suppose not.

0:21:370:21:39

A very nice example, in lovely condition,

0:21:390:21:41

but I just don't think it's really in vogue.

0:21:410:21:44

OK, we'll take your advice on that.

0:21:440:21:46

Thanks. Thank you for that. Let's keep looking.

0:21:460:21:49

Only ten minutes left on the clocks, teams.

0:21:490:21:51

I quite like that, is it a brooch, there?

0:21:510:21:53

Hi, there. Can you just give us a price? Is it a silver one,

0:21:530:21:56

on the left-hand side? That one?

0:21:560:21:57

Yes. Is it a brooch or pendant?

0:21:570:22:00

It's a brooch. OK.

0:22:000:22:01

What price have you got on there?

0:22:010:22:03

I've got 19 on there. ?19, OK. Can we have a look at that?

0:22:030:22:07

Yeah, make sure you can see the marker.

0:22:070:22:10

OK. I'm thinking Golden Gavel territory, all right?

0:22:100:22:13

This is what we want.

0:22:130:22:14

It's ?19, we can do a bit of negotiating.

0:22:140:22:17

It's got a bit of a look.

0:22:170:22:19

OK, but is it silver, or is it just...?

0:22:190:22:21

No, it is silver.

0:22:210:22:22

It is silver. It's got a little split in it here.

0:22:220:22:25

Is it a split, or is it not on the pin, on the body?

0:22:250:22:29

Oh, yes, I can.

0:22:290:22:31

No, no, no, don't discount it,

0:22:310:22:33

because that means we're going to get it at a bargain price, right?

0:22:330:22:37

Think Golden Gavels. Yes.

0:22:370:22:38

Right, Golden Gavels? Yeah.

0:22:380:22:40

So, what kind of money could that be?

0:22:400:22:43

Because it's got the split, you could have it for ?10.

0:22:430:22:45

?10. It is what it is, but I think it's lovely, and I think it perhaps...

0:22:450:22:49

Well, hang on a minute. It's ?10, what date is it?

0:22:490:22:52

Come on, I'm going to test you now. Oh, my goodness. You've had one hour of training.

0:22:520:22:55

It's definitely Victorian.

0:22:550:22:56

OK, it's late 19th, early 20th century.

0:22:560:22:59

Oh, right, OK. It's got to be.

0:22:590:23:00

Pre-First World War, I would guess.

0:23:000:23:03

It's got a lot of shine to it. Let's go for it.

0:23:030:23:05

Yes. Let's do it.

0:23:050:23:07

Let's go for it. Do you want to?

0:23:070:23:09

With a box.

0:23:090:23:10

Yes. Lovely, thank you, madam.

0:23:100:23:12

Well done, Blues, that's your third and final item.

0:23:120:23:15

Right, OK, that, chaps, is Golden Gavel territory.

0:23:150:23:19

Hooray! There we go.

0:23:190:23:20

Thank you, madam, thank you very much.

0:23:200:23:23

Now back with the Reds,

0:23:230:23:24

they have just six minutes left to find their last item.

0:23:240:23:27

And can I have a look at the little travelling perfume bottle, please?

0:23:270:23:31

That's actually a smelling salts bottle.

0:23:310:23:34

Oh, it's a smelling salts bottle.

0:23:340:23:36

What are you thinking?

0:23:360:23:38

I'm thinking it's beautiful, I've never seen one.

0:23:380:23:40

I know it's not useful.

0:23:400:23:42

I mean, it's in great condition, let's not take that away.

0:23:420:23:44

It's marked up at ?12.

0:23:440:23:48

You know, I mean, it's not too far out, to be honest.

0:23:480:23:51

OK. You know, there's always collectors for little things.

0:23:510:23:56

This is a lovely little reviver, smelling salts bottle.

0:23:560:23:59

You know, it's got a nice polished top, white metal polished top.

0:23:590:24:02

It's in nice condition.

0:24:020:24:04

We'll just take the lid off, just to check for chips.

0:24:040:24:07

And we could say there's no damage.

0:24:070:24:09

Well, I think we need to make a decision.

0:24:090:24:12

We know it's priced at ?12.

0:24:120:24:14

There must be about just over five minutes left.

0:24:140:24:16

So, we're going to have to make a decision.

0:24:160:24:19

I've learned over the years, if Stephanie's happy with it,

0:24:190:24:21

I've got to be happy too.

0:24:210:24:23

Let's see what price we can get.

0:24:230:24:25

Hi, there. Hi. It's priced up at ?12.

0:24:250:24:28

Yeah. We're really going for a Golden Gavel.

0:24:280:24:30

What would be your very best price on that?

0:24:300:24:33

Really, it would be ten on that, which is no money, really,

0:24:330:24:36

for what it is. OK.

0:24:360:24:38

Would you be able to do it for nine? Yeah, we'll do it for nine.

0:24:380:24:41

Thank you very much indeed.

0:24:410:24:43

This could be the Golden Gavel, you never know.

0:24:430:24:46

Good luck. Thank you so much, really appreciate it.

0:24:460:24:48

That's it, teams, your time's up.

0:24:480:24:51

That's it, gents, ladies and gents.

0:24:510:24:53

We've done well. That's our third item.

0:24:530:24:55

She's happy, look at that.

0:24:550:24:56

Let's remind ourselves what the Reds bought.

0:24:560:24:59

First up was the large terrestrial globe with a price of ?110.

0:25:000:25:05

They found a gem in this jewellery box at ?60.

0:25:070:25:10

And finally, a miniature scent bottle

0:25:120:25:15

at the equally miniature price of ?9.

0:25:150:25:17

Stephanie, Andrew, did you have a good time?

0:25:170:25:20

Yes, we did, didn't we? What was your favourite item?

0:25:200:25:23

I think for me it was the tiny little bottle in the leather pouch,

0:25:230:25:26

I loved it. Andrew, what about you?

0:25:260:25:28

Well, for me, it's the globe.

0:25:280:25:30

Oh, right. It's something you can use, it's huge, it's imposing,

0:25:300:25:35

just the kind of thing I like. Yeah!

0:25:350:25:38

Is it going to make the most money?

0:25:380:25:40

With a strong wind, I think it could do well,

0:25:400:25:43

so I'm going to stick to my guns and say the globe, yeah.

0:25:430:25:45

Well, you spent ?129.

0:25:450:25:48

Can you give me 121, please?

0:25:480:25:51

Which I will pass over immediately to Danny.

0:25:510:25:54

Thank you. Are you happy with that amount of money?

0:25:540:25:57

Well, I think I've got plenty to spend.

0:25:570:25:59

We bought some great items.

0:25:590:26:00

I've got my work cut out if I can keep up the flow.

0:26:000:26:03

While Danny goes off to do his very best,

0:26:030:26:07

we're going to have a look at what the Blues bought.

0:26:070:26:10

First up, they got into country living

0:26:100:26:12

with this carved wooden pitchfork, bought for ?30.

0:26:120:26:17

They picked up this late 18th-century vinaigrette for ?40.

0:26:170:26:21

And finally, this silver and amethyst brooch caught Julie's eye,

0:26:210:26:24

?10 paid.

0:26:240:26:26

Julie, Graham, did you have a nice time today?

0:26:260:26:29

Wonderful. It was amazing.

0:26:290:26:30

Yeah. Julie, what was your favourite item?

0:26:300:26:33

Definitely the hay fork.

0:26:330:26:35

I love it. Graham, what was your favourite item?

0:26:350:26:38

Well, I have to say, it's got to be the hay fork.

0:26:380:26:41

Oh, so you're both in agreement? We're both in agreement on that.

0:26:410:26:44

It's in one piece, that's what's amazing,

0:26:440:26:46

and where the forks are out, it's just amazing.

0:26:460:26:49

But profit wise, I think, really, the vinaigrette may do it.

0:26:490:26:53

You spent ?80, could you give me 220, please?

0:26:530:26:57

There we go, madam. ?220 is an enormous amount of money, David.

0:26:570:27:02

I've never seen that amount in my life.

0:27:020:27:04

Are you going to blow the lot?

0:27:040:27:06

Well, I'm going to stick to the trying to make a profit,

0:27:060:27:08

so I'm going to be very cautious.

0:27:080:27:10

Profit, profit, profit.

0:27:100:27:12

Golden Gavel.

0:27:120:27:13

While David goes off to buy something with a definite profit,

0:27:130:27:18

we're off to the auction.

0:27:180:27:19

I've travelled to Bellmans auctioneers in West Sussex

0:27:280:27:32

to meet auctioneer Jonathan Pratt.

0:27:320:27:34

Hello, Jonathan. Hi, there.

0:27:340:27:35

Now, Reds first of all.

0:27:350:27:37

Andrew and Stephanie.

0:27:370:27:39

Their first item, this Philips terrestrial globe, what do you think of it?

0:27:390:27:44

I like it a lot because, obviously, it's an educational tool.

0:27:440:27:48

They have a sculptural quality.

0:27:480:27:49

It's kind of retro as well.

0:27:510:27:52

So in that respect, you can see someone having it in a study,

0:27:520:27:56

you can see them having it in a kid's bedroom as an ornament or as

0:27:560:27:59

a useful tool as well. So I think it's got quite a lot going for it

0:27:590:28:02

and it is a big one, it's the size of a beach ball.

0:28:020:28:04

What's your estimate on that? I've estimated at ?50 to ?70.

0:28:040:28:07

50 to 70?

0:28:070:28:09

They paid ?110 for it. There we go, yes.

0:28:090:28:13

OK, their second item, it's the Victorian jewellery box.

0:28:130:28:17

Are these still popular?

0:28:170:28:19

This is very traditional. At an auction, you often see two or three in a lot.

0:28:190:28:23

Often they've been gutted.

0:28:230:28:24

So the nice thing about this one is

0:28:240:28:27

it's quite presentable and it's got a nice interior which is nicely

0:28:270:28:30

finished in a nice fabric and it's nicely buttoned,

0:28:300:28:32

and there's a lot of nice things about it to sell it.

0:28:320:28:34

What's your estimate on it?

0:28:340:28:36

I've put ?20 to ?40 on it.

0:28:360:28:38

Well, I think they may have paid a wee bit too much at ?60.

0:28:380:28:43

If I get 60, I think I'll be inundated with other people wanting to sell them.

0:28:430:28:47

Now, their third item is the little perfume bottle,

0:28:470:28:52

vinaigrette, sweet smelling.

0:28:520:28:54

Yeah, it's called the Revive You

0:28:540:28:56

and that suggests to me that it's smelling salts.

0:28:560:28:59

It's moulded glass, nickel-plated sort of, you know, cover.

0:28:590:29:03

Very little... There's no quality there.

0:29:030:29:05

Not really, no. But it's a novelty, isn't it?

0:29:050:29:07

It's a bit of fun. Yeah. And at ?5 to ?10, is what I reckon.

0:29:070:29:10

Well, they paid ?9, so, they have a chance.

0:29:100:29:13

My minimum bid, I try to get ten for everything at the very least,

0:29:130:29:17

so I've got to get a profit on it. You've got to get a profit on it.

0:29:170:29:20

So, that's their three items.

0:29:200:29:23

They may or may not need their bonus buy.

0:29:230:29:26

But we're going to go and have a look at it anyway.

0:29:260:29:29

Andrew, Stephanie, you spent ?179.

0:29:290:29:33

You gave Danny 121.

0:29:330:29:36

Danny, what did you buy?

0:29:360:29:38

I bought something a little bit different, a little bit quirky.

0:29:380:29:41

OK. Oh!

0:29:410:29:43

Oh, I love it, what is it?

0:29:430:29:45

It's a Brunsviga Nova calculator.

0:29:450:29:48

It dates back to about the 1940s.

0:29:480:29:51

I can't remember how it works, but I know when I bought it

0:29:510:29:54

the vendor showed me it working!

0:29:540:29:56

He really did.

0:29:560:29:58

It's not something you're going to use, anyway, is it?

0:29:580:30:00

It's a piece of art to sit on your table.

0:30:000:30:02

Yeah, absolutely, that's exactly it. OK, so, how much did you pay for it?

0:30:020:30:06

I paid ?40.

0:30:060:30:07

OK. I don't think that's too bad.

0:30:070:30:09

Well, what do you think it could make?

0:30:090:30:11

I'd like to think it could make ?50 to ?70, may even go daft, big money.

0:30:110:30:17

Really? I think so.

0:30:170:30:18

If we've got some accountants with a nice desk in the house.

0:30:180:30:21

Well, you don't need to make up your mind at the moment.

0:30:230:30:26

Wait until your first three items have been sold.

0:30:260:30:29

But in the meantime,

0:30:290:30:31

let's find out if the auctioneer thinks Danny's calculator

0:30:310:30:36

will add up to a profit.

0:30:360:30:39

And as if by magic, Jonathan,

0:30:390:30:41

has appeared something completely different.

0:30:410:30:45

Yes. It's an old calculator.

0:30:450:30:48

What do you think of that?

0:30:480:30:49

It's a piece of history, modern history at that,

0:30:490:30:53

something made in the early part of the 20th century.

0:30:530:30:55

And, again, it has a sculptural quality, doesn't it?

0:30:550:30:58

You know, you can put it in the home and, what does this do?

0:30:580:31:00

I quite like it. It has no practical sense whatsoever in modern society,

0:31:000:31:04

but it's not too big, it's a piece of history, bit of fun, really.

0:31:040:31:08

What's your estimate on that?

0:31:080:31:10

I've suggested between ?15 and ?25.

0:31:100:31:12

Yeah, they paid ?40 for it.

0:31:120:31:14

I mean, I can see that doing not too badly.

0:31:140:31:17

Well, that's it for the Reds.

0:31:170:31:19

And now for our Blues, Julie and Graham.

0:31:190:31:21

Their first item, it's a pitchfork.

0:31:210:31:23

There is a collector's market for tools anyway

0:31:230:31:26

and there's museums of garden tools and things.

0:31:260:31:28

And it may not be terribly old, it might only be from the '40s or '50s.

0:31:280:31:31

What I like about it, it's been used and you can see it has been used.

0:31:310:31:34

You've got wear to the tines.

0:31:340:31:36

I rather like it. I think it's quite a novelty.

0:31:360:31:38

What's your estimate on the pitchfork? ?30 to ?50.

0:31:380:31:41

Well, they paid ?30. Good. So there is a chance here.

0:31:410:31:44

Second item is the little vinaigrette.

0:31:460:31:49

What's nice about it is that it has period charm,

0:31:490:31:52

you can see it's a Georgian piece

0:31:520:31:54

with the bright-cut engraving, and the shape is an etui,

0:31:540:31:58

which in itself is a sort of, I mean, it's a rare object,

0:31:580:32:01

so it has a novelty shaped value rather than a straightforward sort of rectangular vinaigrette.

0:32:010:32:05

So I like that a lot, actually. What's your estimate on that?

0:32:050:32:08

?70 to ?90.

0:32:080:32:09

Well, that's not too bad.

0:32:090:32:11

They've only paid ?40.

0:32:110:32:13

Wow, have I overcooked it? I hope not.

0:32:130:32:15

Now, their third item, Julie loves amethyst

0:32:160:32:20

and they saw this silver and amethyst brooch.

0:32:200:32:24

Tell me what you think of that.

0:32:240:32:25

Where do I start, really? Problem is with brooches is that people don't wear them that often any more.

0:32:250:32:30

So the value of brooches has been affected by popular fashion,

0:32:300:32:32

but then it's not an expensive one.

0:32:320:32:34

Just in silver with amethyst, a nice colour, you know?

0:32:340:32:36

So there are pluses and minuses for it, really.

0:32:360:32:39

Yeah, what's your estimate? I've put ?5 to ?8.

0:32:390:32:42

Yeah, well, they've paid ?10 so they've got a chance there.

0:32:420:32:44

I reckon I'll probably get ?12, ?15 for it. Very likely.

0:32:440:32:47

Well, I think it's looking as if they're doing quite well, our Blues. Yeah.

0:32:470:32:53

They may not need their bonus buy,

0:32:530:32:55

but we're going to go and have a look at it anyway.

0:32:550:32:58

Julie, Graham, well, you spent a modest ?80.

0:32:590:33:04

That's true. You left our David ?220.

0:33:040:33:10

David, did you spend it all?

0:33:100:33:12

Let me tell you, I blew caution to the wind, and I bought with my heart.

0:33:120:33:19

Oh! Wow. That is a real, proper bonafide antique.

0:33:190:33:25

Do you know what it is?

0:33:250:33:26

Tea caddy? Yes.

0:33:260:33:28

What date is it?

0:33:280:33:29

17... Victorian. 1750.

0:33:290:33:32

Oh, my gosh. Oh, wow!

0:33:320:33:34

You're bang on! Oh, well done!

0:33:340:33:36

Absolutely marvellous!

0:33:360:33:37

George II, solid mahogany, bomb-shaped tea caddy.

0:33:370:33:41

Would have had a segmented interior there.

0:33:410:33:43

What's it worth, then? 150?

0:33:430:33:46

OK, Julie? 80.

0:33:460:33:47

80. I bought that for a ridiculous ?40. Oh! Wow!

0:33:470:33:52

That's the market.

0:33:520:33:54

You don't need to make up your mind just now.

0:33:540:33:56

Wait until your first three items have been sold.

0:33:560:33:59

But in the meantime,

0:33:590:34:01

let's find out what the auctioneer thinks of David's tea caddy.

0:34:010:34:05

Blues' bonus buy is this tea caddy.

0:34:060:34:10

Yeah. Very good shape.

0:34:100:34:13

Good shape, and it's earlier,

0:34:130:34:15

it's not early, early, but being mid-18th century,

0:34:150:34:17

sort of George II sort of piece, early George III sort of piece.

0:34:170:34:21

And I like that. So, yeah, a nice thing, really.

0:34:210:34:24

But, sadly, not as collectable as they used to be.

0:34:240:34:27

What's your estimate, Jonathan?

0:34:270:34:28

20-40. Yeah, so David paid ?40 for this.

0:34:280:34:31

So there is a chance that it will get there.

0:34:310:34:34

Look, my estimate is there as a bit of a come and get me.

0:34:340:34:37

I really like it, I think this could do quite well.

0:34:370:34:40

Are you taking the auction today, Jonathan?

0:34:400:34:42

Yes, I am. Oh, yeah? Can't wait.

0:34:420:34:44

?20 I have. Who's got five, 25?

0:34:440:34:49

Selling, ?40.

0:34:490:34:51

Have you guys been to an auction before?

0:34:510:34:54

No. So it's a new experience?

0:34:540:34:56

Is your heart pounding?

0:34:560:34:57

No, mine's stopped!

0:34:570:34:59

Well, your first item, that wonderful Phillips globe,

0:35:010:35:06

you paid ?110 for it.

0:35:060:35:08

I know. And it's coming up right now.

0:35:080:35:10

Good luck, guys. Thank you.

0:35:100:35:12

Lot 165.

0:35:120:35:14

The Philips 19-inch terrestrial globe.

0:35:140:35:16

I've got to start, I've got ?50 on the book.

0:35:160:35:19

And five and 60, and five and 70, and five and 80 with me, 85 then.

0:35:190:35:23

90 standing.

0:35:230:35:24

Five, 100.

0:35:240:35:26

And ten. And ten in the red, now, 110 in the red.

0:35:260:35:29

?110 in the red.

0:35:290:35:31

110 with you, sir, fair warning.

0:35:310:35:34

At ?110, selling, all done?

0:35:340:35:36

Oh, 110, guys. You haven't lost any money.

0:35:380:35:42

So I'm going to call it a good start.

0:35:420:35:45

Your next item, your Victorian jewellery box, you paid ?60 for it.

0:35:450:35:51

Good luck, because it's coming up now.

0:35:510:35:54

Lot 167.

0:35:540:35:56

Victorian jewellery box.

0:35:560:35:57

Starting at ?20 for it.

0:35:570:35:59

Thank you, 20, 25. 30, 35.

0:35:590:36:02

35. Go on, one more.

0:36:020:36:03

Come on, come on. 40, waving, standing.

0:36:030:36:06

45 seated.

0:36:060:36:08

50's bid. Oh, yes.

0:36:080:36:10

55 seated at my right, anyone else in the room?

0:36:100:36:12

At ?55, I shall sell at ?55, all done?

0:36:120:36:16

Last chance, then, fair warning, ?55?

0:36:160:36:20

55.

0:36:200:36:22

That's -?5.

0:36:220:36:25

That's not too bad, not too bad.

0:36:250:36:28

Third item is the little miniature scent bottle,

0:36:280:36:31

you only paid a wee tiny ?9 for it.

0:36:310:36:34

Hopefully make a profit.

0:36:340:36:36

Coming up. So, Lot 169.

0:36:360:36:38

This lovely little miniature scent bottle.

0:36:380:36:41

And pouch. The Revive You.

0:36:410:36:44

Start me at ?10.

0:37:020:37:07

Yes! Fantastic.

0:37:070:37:08

?40.

0:37:110:37:12

That was your favourite.

0:37:120:37:14

That was mine. Certainly did revive us.

0:37:140:37:16

So that takes you to plus ?26.

0:37:160:37:21

Will you take the bonus buy?

0:37:210:37:25

Well...we've had a calculation about this.

Yeah, we've got to go for it, haven't we? Yeah.

Fantastic. ?60.

0:38:050:38:06

Well, that's another ?20 profit.

0:38:060:38:10

And that takes your total profit

0:38:100:38:13

to 46 wonderful pounds!

0:38:130:38:17

Well done, Danny, well done.

0:38:170:38:19

Thank you. And well done both of you.

0:38:190:38:22

But, calm the smiles down.

Oh, well, I'm just excited. Oh, wonderful, wonderful.

0:38:420:38:45

But I'm easily pleased.

You loved it. I did, yes.

0:38:520:38:53

Well, we're selling it in the right area.

0:38:530:38:56

Wow. ?80 with me, looking for five, though.

0:39:150:39:17

0:39:170:39:21

Selling at ?70, all done.

0:41:190:41:21

Marvellous. ?70, that's plus 30.

0:41:210:41:23

You made the right decision. So that takes your total score to ?200,

0:41:230:41:30

but keep calm, keep calm.

0:41:300:41:31

Yes. Don't give anything away to the Reds.

0:41:310:41:35

Well, guys, wasn't that so exciting?

And today's runners-up are the Reds.

0:41:510:41:55

ALL: Oh!

0:41:570:41:59

Now, Andrew and Stephanie,

0:41:590:42:01

you started a wee bit slowly, but you gathered momentum on that third item.

0:42:010:42:06

In the end, you had plus ?46.

0:42:060:42:10

So congratulations on that.

0:42:100:42:12

That's not bad. Not bad?

0:42:120:42:14

That is wonderful!

0:42:140:42:17

So, very well done.

0:42:170:42:18

Thank you very much. You were great sports.

0:42:180:42:21

But today's winners, Julie and Graham in the end...

0:42:210:42:26

..plus ?200.

0:42:270:42:29

Oh, fantastic!

0:42:290:42:31

Fantastic, well done.

0:42:310:42:35

?200, which I will hand over.

0:42:350:42:38

THEY LAUGH

0:42:390:42:42

Not only did you make that splendid profit,

0:42:420:42:46

but getting a profit on each item entitles you to...

0:42:460:42:52

the Golden Gavel!

0:42:520:42:54

Which I have in my pocket here.

0:42:540:42:58

Oh, look! Wow, one to you, Julie, and one to you, Graham.

0:42:580:43:04

Thank you. Wear them with pride.
