0:00:04 > 0:00:06Hello, and welcome to Bargain Hunt.
0:00:06 > 0:00:10Today's show is in the grounds of Kedleston Hall in Derbyshire.
0:00:10 > 0:00:13Now, what is it with all of these burgers and hot dogs
0:00:13 > 0:00:15at antiques fairs and festivals?
0:00:15 > 0:00:19Now, you may think that the hot dog is truly embedded within
0:00:19 > 0:00:22American culture but, rumour has it,
0:00:22 > 0:00:27that a local Derbyshire man could be the secret behind the success.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30More on that later. For now, time to check in on our teams,
0:00:30 > 0:00:32and who will be today's red-hot favourite?
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Let's find out, let's go Bargain Hunting.
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Hundreds of antique stalls have transformed these grounds
0:01:04 > 0:01:07into a world of collectables, plenty for our teams to choose from.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15With £300 in their pocket and just one hour on the clock,
0:01:15 > 0:01:18our teams must find three treasures to take to auction.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21So, time is of the essence, let's have a look at what is coming up.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25The Reds are getting excited.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27- I love it, absolutely love it. - Brilliant.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I'd buy that at auction.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31The Blues are feeling a bit lost.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Stick with us. We're on the same team.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36And over at the auction, there are plenty of highs...
0:01:36 > 0:01:38- ALL:- Oh!
0:01:38 > 0:01:39..and plenty of lows.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40Oh, no!
0:01:41 > 0:01:45But that's all coming up later, first, it's time to meet our teams.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47And we're all feeling very friendly today.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50We've got best of friends for the Reds - Faye and Jane.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53- And for the Blues, Paul and David. Hello, everyone. ALL:- Hello!
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Thank you for joining us, we're going to turn to the Reds first.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59Faye, tell us, you're great friends, how did you meet?
0:01:59 > 0:02:03We met when we were 11 years old on the county music bus going to
0:02:03 > 0:02:06orchestra, and we ended up having singing lessons together,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09doing GCSE music together and even singing
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- at each other's weddings as well. - How lovely is that!
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Important question - front of the bus or back of the bus?
0:02:14 > 0:02:17- BOTH:- Back of the bus! - LAUGHTER
0:02:17 > 0:02:19That says a lot about you and I won't say any more.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22Now tell me, you've sung at each other's weddings,
0:02:22 > 0:02:24so is singing still a big part of your life?
0:02:24 > 0:02:27It is. So, by day, I go round teaching children in schools
0:02:27 > 0:02:30and then, by night, I perform around the country, singing,
0:02:30 > 0:02:34playing saxophone, clarinet, flute, piano, conducting, as well.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38- So it is your life?- It is, yeah, it is my life.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Jane, tell me, what do you do for a living?
0:02:40 > 0:02:43I'm a GP in Wolverhampton, quite a large practice there.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Been there for about seven years.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48And, yeah, I really love it, it is a vocation rather than a job.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Always wanted to be a doctor since I was about six years old
0:02:51 > 0:02:55and I spent some time in hospital and thought I had so much fun as
0:02:55 > 0:02:59a six-year-old in hospital that I would go on to train to be a doctor.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01If you have any spare time, how do you spend it?
0:03:01 > 0:03:04I really enjoy craft, I do a lot of card making.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07And so on and so does Faye. She does a lot of craft as well.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09So we do some of that together.
0:03:09 > 0:03:14And in my office at home, it is 90% craft and 10% medical books.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17So, when you do go looking for antiques, what do you get into?
0:03:17 > 0:03:21I do collect vintage toys and Masonic regalia, whenever I can.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23So, do you have any tactics as a team today?
0:03:23 > 0:03:25I think for a start, we'll listen to the expert.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27And Jane's going to do the negotiating.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29I'm not allowed. I'll end up giving them my fleece!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31LAUGHTER
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Right, well, we'll turn to the competition.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37Paul, David. Tell me, Paul, how did you become friends?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40We met about 20 years ago in the civil service,
0:03:40 > 0:03:45and then we met again, as amateur dramatics.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48We've done a number of plays, most recently, Dad's Army,
0:03:48 > 0:03:54and I played Captain Mainwaring, and David played Sergeant Wilson.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56Oh, wonderful. So, David, what else do you get up to?
0:03:56 > 0:04:00I volunteer for a charity called Sheffield Talking News.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03We edit a weekly newsletter, we record it,
0:04:03 > 0:04:08we send it out to about 500, 600 people with visual impairment
0:04:08 > 0:04:10in the area.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11It's good fun, that.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Antiques and collectables, you both have different areas of interest.
0:04:14 > 0:04:19I like to collect books on pop charts,
0:04:19 > 0:04:22from its conception in the 1950s.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24- The hit parade.- The hit parade, absolutely.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Dave, what about your knowledge of antiques?
0:04:26 > 0:04:30Well, I'm basically a hoarder, much to my wife's annoyance,
0:04:30 > 0:04:35and I've got collections of vinyl records,
0:04:35 > 0:04:37magazines, newspapers, books.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39So, you're obviously great friends,
0:04:39 > 0:04:42but this is Blue team on Bargain Hunt, what are the tactics?
0:04:42 > 0:04:46Well, we're going to buy low and sell high.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47And will you listen to one another?
0:04:47 > 0:04:50No, no, but I think I'll have to do the bargaining.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52That's you told, then!
0:04:52 > 0:04:54That's right, OK, fair enough.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56I'm sure you're going to have a great time.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58But money's important, because you each get £300.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01- So, Jane...- Thank you.- ..for the Reds, 300,
0:05:01 > 0:05:04and, Paul, 300 for you and the Blues.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Well, if you're ready, your experts are waiting for you, so, off you go,
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- good luck, I wish you the best. ALL:- Thanks.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15Today is the crafty musicians versus the amateur actors.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Hopefully, there won't be too much drama!
0:05:19 > 0:05:24And helping our teams today are a couple of talented experts.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28Hoping to deliver some profits for the Reds, it's John Cameron.
0:05:28 > 0:05:33And mixing it up for the Blues, it's Tim Weeks.
0:05:33 > 0:05:34Right then, Blue team, here we are.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37- Paul, tell me, what are we looking for today?- I think toys, Tim.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40So, Faye, Jane, what are we going to be buying today?
0:05:40 > 0:05:42I'd like to look for pieces of jewellery.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Wheels, cartwheels, wooden, something old.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47And I think textiles might be something to go for.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51- What will we be spending? Big or small?- BOTH:- Small.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Are you ready, teams? Your 60 minutes start now.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57- Ready to get going?- Yeah, sure. - Come on, follow me. Let's go.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59- It's time to shop.- OK.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Good luck, teams.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Let the battle commence.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Loads here, loads and loads of stalls, lots of aisles.
0:06:09 > 0:06:13In here, we should find plenty of little silver shiny things.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Jumping straight into it, teams, that's what I like to see.
0:06:18 > 0:06:19I want to head straight down here,
0:06:19 > 0:06:22because I'm picking up something that you've just told me.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23- You OK with that? - Yep, yeah, absolutely.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Let's go this way. Follow me.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Some little silver bits here, let's have a look.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32What about these dishes?
0:06:32 > 0:06:36Quite nice. It's not an unreasonable price, but I'm looking at auction.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38- Have a think about that one?- Yeah.
0:06:38 > 0:06:39Have a think about that, yeah?
0:06:39 > 0:06:42OK, moving on. You've got plenty of time yet.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45Now, what was Tim so keen to show the Blues?
0:06:45 > 0:06:47What do you think of these? David, you said you like cartwheels.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49What would you use them for, David?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51- Just for decoration, in the garden. - Yeah, exactly. They look great.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55- They're very popular.- How old do you think this is, Tim?
0:06:55 > 0:06:59Good age to it, I think. They got to be 100 years old, no problem.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01That one's got a bit of woodworm.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03- Yes.- I think I prefer that wood to that.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I like it. I prefer the detail here. What do you think, Paul?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09You're not into them. I can see by your face, you're not into them, at all.
0:07:09 > 0:07:14- Does that answer your question? - That tells me.- I like the cog, that's interesting.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16I like that it still has some red paint on it.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Some of that original paint, I think that's nice.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22I don't think the condition is too bad, cos they're always going to be weathered.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23They've never seen the indoors.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27It's a nice attractive thing, that's what it is now, purely decoration,
0:07:27 > 0:07:28like you say, David.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31I think having the cog is what gives it a bit of je ne sais quoi,
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- a bit of excitement.- Yeah, yeah. - Do you know what I mean?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Look at the wood, look how weathered that wood is.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- OK, there's a bit of worm in it, so what?- How much is it, please?
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- £70.- £70?
0:07:41 > 0:07:4250 would be me lowest.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- 50, lowest. - DAVID:- I think that's good.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Let's park it. We could come back.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50- And you're definitely going to be happy to park it?- Oh, park it, yeah.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52- Yeah.- We might come back, then.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55- Is that OK?- Thank you. - Let's keep going.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58Sounds like a plan, Blues, one for the back burner.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Off you scoot, time to check in with the Reds.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04What has John spotted to impress his ladies?
0:08:04 > 0:08:07It's not little, it's not jewellery, what do you think of that?
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- It's definitely novel. - You're not sold on it?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12- I'm not, no. - Interesting garden item.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15I wouldn't have said from here it's got much age to it,
0:08:15 > 0:08:17but it's got a bit of impact, got a bit of something about it.
0:08:17 > 0:08:22It says 170 on it, we can get that for a lot less than that.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26- I think it's a bit out there, if I'm honest.- No, it's fine.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Hm. You might be right there, ladies!
0:08:29 > 0:08:32So, anything jumping out at the Blues?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35It's interesting, I quite like this one. What do you think?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37- What have you found? - Is it too modern?
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Have a look at the back.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43- There we go.- West Germany. - That gives us a bit of an idea.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46This has a nice face to it.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48What's the word that it screams?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50- "Retro."- I agree.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51I like it, I think the colour is fantastic.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55What's key is, all the digits seem in good order,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58there's no missing, no scratches or scrapes, that's good.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00It's an alarm clock, obviously, cos it's got...
0:09:00 > 0:09:04It's in good condition. Absolutely. I like that it is West German,
0:09:04 > 0:09:06probably '60s, '70s, for me.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07You could be right, Tim,
0:09:07 > 0:09:11the term "Made in West Germany" was used by some manufacturers
0:09:11 > 0:09:15between the mid-50s and the '90s up until German reunification.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17- I like that.- Yeah.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19I think I saw a price on the bottom, what have they got?
0:09:19 > 0:09:21- 40.- He might go lower.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Who's going to ask, then? Shall we go and get the trader? Shall we call him over? Sir?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28You know what we're going to say, don't you?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30What's your best price?
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- TRADER:- Do you realise it's an alarm clock as well?
0:09:32 > 0:09:36It's absolutely of the period, of the age, so...
0:09:36 > 0:09:38..but I would do 35 for you.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41- 30.- I can't do 30.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44I'll split it with you, I'll do 34.
0:09:44 > 0:09:46- LAUGHTER DAVE:- 33.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48I'll do 33.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51- OK, thanks very much. - Thank you very much.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56- Thank you, sir. Appreciate that. Right.- Good luck with it, I'll wrap it up for you.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Thank you, thanks very much.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59How about that, one down?
0:09:59 > 0:10:02That's a good feeling, pretty good time on the clock as well.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Shall we keep shopping?- Yeah. - Let's go, follow me. This way!
0:10:06 > 0:10:09Pretty impressive, boys, a good haggle, and your first buy,
0:10:09 > 0:10:11all in just over ten minutes.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Come on, Reds, time to step up.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15We've nearly got a quarter of an hour gone,
0:10:15 > 0:10:18don't start panicking yet, but we need to start thinking about buying something.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22Good advice, John, spending is the name of the game.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24These are hand-knotted rugs, you said textiles,
0:10:24 > 0:10:25is this something you had in mind?
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Probably more like Victorian cross stitching, samplers.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31- Those sorts of things like that. - Well, possibly.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34These two are quite specific about what they want, so, John,
0:10:34 > 0:10:37I think you've got to work it out.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Meanwhile, the Blues are motoring on.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Oh, look! What about these cars?
0:10:42 > 0:10:46- Did you have one of those?- My dad made me one of these.- Oh, really?
0:10:46 > 0:10:50These are wonderful, pedal cars, the price will be the concern,
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- I would imagine.- This one's nicer, isn't it?- These were so popular in the '50s.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56You'd have to be a well-off family to be able to get one,
0:10:56 > 0:10:59so therefore there are not many around now and they are very collectable,
0:10:59 > 0:11:01and you have to pay serious money to get one.
0:11:01 > 0:11:06Toy pedal cars were first-hand made from wood in the late 1800s.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09By the 1930s, metal bodied versions had become more common.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13Today, the popularity of pedal cars is soaring, especially in America,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16where they have become one of the fastest-growing collectables.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19What we want to check here is if there is a sticker...
0:11:19 > 0:11:22- Have a look at that.- "Made in China."- Does that put you off?
0:11:22 > 0:11:25Yeah, that means it is not as old as we thought.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28It's not original. I would want an original.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Do you think that one would be the same?- Have a look.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Can't see any obvious sticker.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Now, to me, this looks like it has a bit more age.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Pedals don't look old. There is rusting,
0:11:37 > 0:11:39which suggests there is age to it and it is more original.
0:11:39 > 0:11:43We can see the ticket, here we go, £135,
0:11:43 > 0:11:46but when we are trying to make money on top of it,
0:11:46 > 0:11:47I think that's going to be hard work for us.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50- So, we'll leave that.- Advice taken. - Afraid so.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Come on. Let's keep looking, we may find one.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Back to the Reds, and with no textiles in sight,
0:11:57 > 0:11:59John calls on the stallholder for help.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02Come on, Peter, you can help us out here today.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05What's the price on that little novel corkscrew?
0:12:05 > 0:12:07I can do that one for 40.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- What do you think of that, girls? - Yeah, it's quite different.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14People collect corkscrews, novelty items are even better.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17That's what I would call a lot of crossover appeal.
0:12:17 > 0:12:22Wine-related antiques, speedway, 60 quid was the asking price.
0:12:22 > 0:12:24Peter said he can do that for 40 quid.
0:12:24 > 0:12:28I've never seen one, never sold one but, as I say, it is novel.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Is there any more leeway on that? Could we go down to 30?
0:12:30 > 0:12:33I'll be honest, that would have to be 40,
0:12:33 > 0:12:34I've never ever seen one before.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38- 30% off. How about you? - I quite like that.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39You quite like it?
0:12:39 > 0:12:44It's about 30 quid more than I would like to spend.
0:12:44 > 0:12:45- What do you think?- Go on, then.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47- First item?- First item.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50- 40 quid.- Sounds good.- Thank you very much.- Thanks, Peter.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52I'm quite pleased with that, I think it is a good item,
0:12:52 > 0:12:55- it's got a chance. Let's keep shopping, shall we?- OK.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Thank you, thank you very much.
0:12:57 > 0:12:58- Thanks, Peter.- No problem at all.
0:12:58 > 0:13:02Well done, Reds, with 20 minutes on the clock, it is now 1-1.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04So, where have the Blues got to?
0:13:05 > 0:13:06Paul, we have lost you.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Stick with us, all right? We are on the same team. We're a threesome.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17I wonder if they always get on this well!
0:13:17 > 0:13:19I think we are getting on better than I thought we would,
0:13:19 > 0:13:22cos we normally bicker, in real situations,
0:13:22 > 0:13:25but we've actually agreed on most things, haven't we?
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Definitely not, Dave, come on, off, go.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32Let's just get on the march, walk down,
0:13:32 > 0:13:35and hopefully we'll bump into stuff. Shall we go for that?
0:13:35 > 0:13:37While the Blues hunt for a knick-knack,
0:13:37 > 0:13:40the Reds are still after something from their wish list,
0:13:40 > 0:13:42but this does not look promising.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44This is for feeding pigs.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47It's got teats on there and a warmer there that warms up the milk.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51- Probably not much call for that nowadays.- Probably not.
0:13:51 > 0:13:52Keep walking.
0:13:52 > 0:13:56Yeah, maybe something slightly more glamorous for your ladies, eh, John?
0:13:56 > 0:13:59Right, Blues, how is that toy hunting coming along?
0:13:59 > 0:14:00Quite interested in Dinky cars.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03But, I mean, anything '50s.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- Things to bring back that nostalgia for you.- Yeah.- OK.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10I can see a car. Two little cars over here.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- What do you think?- They're not bad looking, but...
0:14:13 > 0:14:16Oh, they're quite heavy... The detail is good.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18A lot of detail there.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21- Not Dinky.- No, they haven't got that quality of Dinky.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26What collectors will want is good condition, which they are, but ideally, some boxes.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28- And a name.- And a name!
0:14:28 > 0:14:31And particularly if they're modern, we've got to have a box, haven't we?
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Once a modern model is out of a box,
0:14:33 > 0:14:37if it's only in the last 20, 30 years these were produced,
0:14:37 > 0:14:39if you've got no box, you've got no item.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- OK, OK.- It's different, if we find an old Dinky,
0:14:42 > 0:14:45we could sell an old Dinky for £500 without a box.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Top tip, Tim, let's keep an eye out for one.
0:14:48 > 0:14:52And how about the Reds, could this bring a shine to their shopping?
0:14:52 > 0:14:56This box here...on the stall here, quite eye-catching from a distance.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01I think with this rest here that that is for shoe shining.
0:15:01 > 0:15:05- Oh, yeah.- Do you like it? - Yeah, it's quite different.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08I like all the decoration, this has all been embossed by hand.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12- Have a look at the back. - Little cupboards and things.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I'm sure it's a very niche product but...
0:15:14 > 0:15:18It's the sort of thing that I would see on display in a very smart shoe shop.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22Does it matter that it looks like a couple of lids are missing?
0:15:22 > 0:15:24It would be nicer if they were there,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26but I think it's quite honest.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29- Quite a lot there, isn't it?- It is. What have we got as a price tag?
0:15:29 > 0:15:31£148, let's see what's the best we do.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Looking at the shoeshine box. What can you tell us about it?
0:15:36 > 0:15:41All I know is it's Turkish, probably about 1890s, 1900s.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Apart from that,
0:15:43 > 0:15:46your guess is as good as mine.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48You've got £148 on it. What is the best you can do?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50These girls have got to make a little bit of a profit.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52I'm going to say something really silly,
0:15:52 > 0:15:54I'm going to say I will take £100 for it.
0:15:54 > 0:15:58- I think that sounds quite reasonable, doesn't it? - What are you thinking, Faye?
0:15:58 > 0:16:01There's lots of broken bits.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05- DEALER:- You can see it's been used. And that's what gives it its charm.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Is that your very best?
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Can we go 90? Get it under 100?
0:16:11 > 0:16:13- Yeah, go on, then. - I'd shake his hand and run!
0:16:13 > 0:16:15- Thank you very much. - Thanks very much.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17I've got to shake your hand, too.
0:16:17 > 0:16:21Well done, girls, 90 quid as well, that's fantastic, I love it.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22Absolutely love it.
0:16:22 > 0:16:26I'd buy that at auction, we just need to find someone else now.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31Second item bought, I think we're cooking now.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34- Shall we go down that way? - Shall we carry on down that way?
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Loving your style, Reds - not even halfway through the shop
0:16:39 > 0:16:41and you're already on the home stretch.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Now, Blues, it's your turn.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45- Here, look.- Record players!- Yeah.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- HMV. Got the little dog.- Is it? - Yeah.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50The key thing on condition is the platter.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53They harden and they get solid and they crack
0:16:53 > 0:16:55and they rip and they curl up like this,
0:16:55 > 0:16:57and you couldn't put a record on it anyway,
0:16:57 > 0:16:59so it's useless as a record player.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03That, however, is a great-looking platter.
0:17:03 > 0:17:04I'm not too worried about the needle,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07because the person who buys that will replace the needle.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09That doesn't bother me. We don't even need to look at it.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- HMV is not bad, though, is it? - It's not bad.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13HMV stands for His Master's Voice -
0:17:13 > 0:17:16the title of a painting of a dog listening to a recording
0:17:16 > 0:17:18of "his master's voice."
0:17:18 > 0:17:21It became the logo of a recording company in 1899
0:17:21 > 0:17:22and it is still in use today.
0:17:22 > 0:17:23I like the colour.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26- If it's a Dansette like this, you're looking at 80 to 120.- Yeah?
0:17:26 > 0:17:29- You're not going to get anywhere near that for an HMV.- No.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31I think it's nice, I think it's a nice piece.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33There's different ways that this is going to be sold.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35One, it could just be a piece of furniture -
0:17:35 > 0:17:37it's going to look cool, isn't it? Secondly, I think a high-end dealer,
0:17:37 > 0:17:39or high-end collector is going to buy this,
0:17:39 > 0:17:41and it's going to be a bit of a project
0:17:41 > 0:17:43to turn it into something usable, something working.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46I wouldn't worry about whether it's working or not.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47Why have you not looked at this one?
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Er, because the lid wasn't open.
0:17:49 > 0:17:50- THEY LAUGH - Yeah. Come on.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52Let's look at them all.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53Made in England.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55British, which we like.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58- Yeah.- I prefer HMV, personally. - Yeah, I prefer HMV.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Shall we find out how much they're looking for?
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Yeah, yeah, sure.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05- Cos we've got a few things we could perhaps play with.- Yeah.
0:18:05 > 0:18:06Who's going to ask?
0:18:06 > 0:18:07Yeah, I'll ask, if you like.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Go on, then, see what you can do for us.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Good luck, David. Get your haggling skills at the ready.
0:18:12 > 0:18:17- He'll find out. - She asked for 45 but will accept 40.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18- 40?- Yeah.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Well, I'd like it. What about you, Paul?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- Yeah, I think it's nice.- Yeah?
0:18:22 > 0:18:24If you two are happy, let's do it.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26- Right.- OK.- Yeah? All right. Let's get it.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28Yeah, we'll take it for 40.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31- Right, I can see the shake of the hands.- Uh-huh.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32Put it there, Paul.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35- Oh!- Put it up there! And down there. There we go.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Well done, Blues, and David seals the deal.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Put it there. Well done. We're all happy with that, aren't we?
0:18:40 > 0:18:43- Yeah, we are.- And I'm getting a little bit relieved now
0:18:43 > 0:18:45because that's two down, only one to go.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48Great stuff, Blues, but don't get too complacent -
0:18:48 > 0:18:51time is ticking, with only 15 minutes left on the clock.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53So are the Reds still on track?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55We said silver, jewellery, small,
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- and we've managed to go brass, copper and big.- Yes.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00So, maybe with the third one,
0:19:00 > 0:19:02we should revert back to maybe small.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04If we're struggling, we're going to have to probably
0:19:04 > 0:19:08- end up going back for that cockerel. - Er, I think not.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10So, while the teams carry on shopping,
0:19:10 > 0:19:14I'm off to find out what Derbyshire has to do with the American hot dog.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21The hot dog is one of America's most iconic fast foods
0:19:21 > 0:19:25and yet the man attributed with putting it on the catering map
0:19:25 > 0:19:27is a British entrepreneur from Derbyshire.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30Here to tell us more about Harry Mozley Stevens
0:19:30 > 0:19:32is local writer Nicola Rippon.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35So, Nicola, tell me more about Harry Stevens,
0:19:35 > 0:19:38who's credited, supposedly, with inventing the hot dog.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42Harry Stevens was born in 1856, he grew up in Derby,
0:19:42 > 0:19:44he worked in a local foundry,
0:19:44 > 0:19:48and, in 1882, he emigrated with his family to Ohio.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52Harry's journey to selling hot dogs began when he arrived in the States,
0:19:52 > 0:19:53fell in love with baseball,
0:19:53 > 0:19:57and quickly found himself surrounded by business opportunities.
0:19:57 > 0:19:59After attending a local game in Ohio,
0:19:59 > 0:20:03Stevens decided to redesign the existing scorecards
0:20:03 > 0:20:05and buy the rights to sell them at the ballpark,
0:20:05 > 0:20:09so that supporters could more easily identify the players on the field.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10It was so successful,
0:20:10 > 0:20:13he was able to sell advertising on the cards and make his fortune,
0:20:13 > 0:20:16or at least the start of a fortune.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17By about 1900,
0:20:17 > 0:20:21Harry's scorecard was used in ballparks throughout America.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22He also used these sporting events
0:20:22 > 0:20:25to launch other business enterprises,
0:20:25 > 0:20:28like selling ice cream, peanuts, and soda drinks with straws in them.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31These simple ideas revolutionised catering
0:20:31 > 0:20:33at sporting events across America.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35But his best idea was yet to come.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38He realised that, on very cold days at the start and end of the season,
0:20:38 > 0:20:40people didn't want to buy cold drinks.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42They didn't want to buy ice creams.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44And he needed something hot and tasty.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47So he sent his vendors out into the streets of New York
0:20:47 > 0:20:50to buy up as many sausages to serve at the ballparks.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52They were hot, they were tasty, they were very popular.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54And thanks to his unique selling point
0:20:54 > 0:20:57of wrapping them in bread rolls, they were convenient too.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01And how did this sausage in a bun come to become called the hot dog?
0:21:01 > 0:21:04That's thought to be down to a well-known sports cartoonist.
0:21:04 > 0:21:06A cartoonist called Tad Dorgan.
0:21:06 > 0:21:10He was drawing a picture of one of his dachshund dogs
0:21:10 > 0:21:12in a giant bread roll,
0:21:12 > 0:21:15for a cartoon for a New York newspaper.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Legend has it he couldn't spell dachshund.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21And either he couldn't spell it or he got a very good idea for a joke
0:21:21 > 0:21:22and he called them a hot dog.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24- Oh, that's so good. - Hence the hot dogs.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25And an icon was named.
0:21:25 > 0:21:30Harry Mozley Stevens not only put hot dogs on the catering calendar,
0:21:30 > 0:21:33but he also developed this simple idea into a lucrative business,
0:21:33 > 0:21:37which eventually made him one of the biggest food caterers in the world.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40Going back to this wrapping the sausage in a bun,
0:21:40 > 0:21:45truly can we say that it was his idea and his idea only?
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Many people claimed the idea for their own.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50And certain German immigrants, they did say that they had been
0:21:50 > 0:21:53serving sausages wrapped in bread for decades.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Well, it sounds plausible -
0:21:54 > 0:21:57we do know the Germans love their sauerkraut and sausage.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59So perhaps they did come up with it too.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Whether or not he was the very first,
0:22:01 > 0:22:04we can certainly credit him for popularising this snack
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- that we know and love today, the hot dog.- We can.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10He's recognised as the king of hot dogs.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13And in his first home town of Niles, Ohio,
0:22:13 > 0:22:16they have an annual Harry Stevens Hot Dog Day.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18In Derby, we are still popularising him.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22We're going to have a blue plaque outside his marital home.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25Well, thank you, Nicola, for sharing the story of Harry Stevens.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28Who knows? The humble hot dog may well have had its beginnings
0:22:28 > 0:22:30right here in Derbyshire.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32But now it's time for me to check back in with the teams
0:22:32 > 0:22:34to see how they're getting on.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Back to the shopping and both teams have two items each,
0:22:40 > 0:22:42but has Faye spotted something that comes anywhere close
0:22:42 > 0:22:44to the Reds' wish list?
0:22:44 > 0:22:46What about at the back, that box?
0:22:46 > 0:22:48It seems to have a needle on it, quite interesting.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Yeah, do you like that? Right, let's have a look.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52That's quite sweet. And in there, look...
0:22:52 > 0:22:55- You've even got some pins. - Got some pins in there.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57I mean, it's very close to textiles, so it's sort of...
0:22:57 > 0:22:59The sort of things we were looking for.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00It's got a Birmingham hallmark.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03Interestingly, it's got Hardy Bros, Brisbane and Sydney.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04So I think that's the retailer's mark,
0:23:04 > 0:23:06- rather than the makers' mark.- Mm-hm.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09- It would have, once upon a time, had gilding inside.- Mm-hm.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11- You see it's worn?- Yeah.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13It's got 65. What's the best you could do on that?
0:23:13 > 0:23:15There's lots of silver there.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16But 55.
0:23:16 > 0:23:1950? For a bit of a bargain?
0:23:19 > 0:23:20OK, yeah. Since it's you.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24- Aw, bless you.- Thank you very much. - Thank you very much.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25- All right, thank you.- Well done.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28And they were looking for something silver and textiles related.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31- Right, couldn't be better. - There we are. Everyone's a winner.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34And that's what I call ticking the boxes.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36So that's all three items done and dusted.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Right, girls, last time we had 20 minutes to go,
0:23:39 > 0:23:41we've got ten minutes left now.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44And we've bought what I think is a really good item. Well done.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45Good spot and a good price.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Yeah, really pleased with that. - Brilliant.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Come on, we've finished.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- Phew!- Bye-bye.- Bye-bye. - Coffee now.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54Come on, Blues. One final push.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56You've only got ten minutes left.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59- What do you think of that? - A curling stone.- Curling stone.
0:23:59 > 0:24:00Paperweight, I like it.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Who said novelty earlier?
0:24:02 > 0:24:04- Me.- Well, that is very novel.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06- It is.- Paperweight, yeah. - It's purely fun.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10Curling was originally played on frozen ponds
0:24:10 > 0:24:14with a curling stone just like this, but much bigger and heavier.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15How much does the ticket say?
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- 12.- OK. Puts us in a good spot, doesn't it?- Yeah.
0:24:18 > 0:24:20Good, fun, novelty item.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22It's functional, you're going to use it.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Get it on the office.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28I like the wheel, but I'd rather go with this cos it's less,
0:24:28 > 0:24:30- it's good... Yeah, go on.- Yeah? See what you can do, though.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32- OK.- See if you can shave it off a little bit.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34- Go on.- Do it.- I'm off.- Come on.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Wasn't this the dealer who sold them the retro clock earlier?
0:24:37 > 0:24:40- We have bought something from you before.- You have. That's correct.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Give me a good deal on this one, please.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44It's nice. It's come all the way from Scotland, you know.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I tell you, it's got 12 on it,
0:24:47 > 0:24:49I'll do it for you for 10.
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- Nine.- I'll do it for you for nine,
0:24:51 > 0:24:53being as how you bought something else.
0:24:53 > 0:24:54- Good man.- Lovely.- Good man.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Well done, Blues.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58You've clinched your final deal with five minutes spare.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00So time to call time.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Good work. Well done. Let's go, come on.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Let's remind ourselves what the Red team bought.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09The girls needed some convincing on this gilt printed corkscrew,
0:25:09 > 0:25:11setting them back £40.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14Next up, they took a shine
0:25:14 > 0:25:15to this Turkish shoeshine box,
0:25:15 > 0:25:18costing them a whopping £90.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21And finally, will this late-Victorian silver pin case
0:25:21 > 0:25:25stitch them up at the auction or craft them a healthy profit?
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Price paid, £50.
0:25:28 > 0:25:32Jane, Faye, John, what happened in the middle there?
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Very overwhelmed. There's a lot of things out there.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36Well, I can understand that.
0:25:36 > 0:25:3960 minutes on the clock, a huge fair like this, it's a lot to take in.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41- Yeah, definitely. - But you brought it all back around
0:25:41 > 0:25:44- with ten minutes to spare. So well done.- Absolutely.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46Now, Jane, which is your favourite item?
0:25:46 > 0:25:50I really quite like that Turkish shoe polishing box.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52I'm a bit intrigued as to how that will do in the auction.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54It's one of those "who knows?" really.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57OK, so you don't think it's going to make the biggest profit, then?
0:25:57 > 0:25:59- No, I don't think so. - What do you think will?
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Probably the corkscrew, I think, yeah.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04Faye, do you agree? Your favourite, is it also the shoeshine box?
0:26:04 > 0:26:07No, I did like the little pin box.
0:26:07 > 0:26:08It's got a beautiful little pin on it.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11And I did actually like the corkscrew as well.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13OK. So which of the three is going to make you the most money?
0:26:13 > 0:26:14The pin box.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17John, you managed to convince them to spend some money, which is good.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20- So who's got the money? - I've got it here.- 120.
0:26:20 > 0:26:21Thank you so much.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24- John Cameron, £120.- Thank you.
0:26:24 > 0:26:25Are you a man with a plan?
0:26:25 > 0:26:29Well, could be something medical, could be something musical related,
0:26:29 > 0:26:31who knows? But I've got plenty of money there.
0:26:31 > 0:26:33So, while John goes to find his bonus buy,
0:26:33 > 0:26:36let's remind ourselves what the Blue team bought.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40First up, they all agreed on this German retro-style alarm clock,
0:26:40 > 0:26:44costing them £33, but will it ring in the profits?
0:26:44 > 0:26:47They were also in tune with this HMV electric gramophone,
0:26:47 > 0:26:49price paid £40.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53And, finally, Paul found this £9 curling stone.
0:26:53 > 0:26:55Let's hope it will throw some weight at the auction.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00Paul, Dave, Tim, cutting it fine, were you not?
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Getting close to 60 minutes.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Paul, which of the three items that you bought,
0:27:03 > 0:27:05which was your favourite?
0:27:05 > 0:27:08- It was the clock.- The clock. - The retro clock.- OK.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10So do you reckon the clock is going to
0:27:10 > 0:27:12bring the biggest profit at auction?
0:27:12 > 0:27:15No. My curling stone.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Ah, all the way from Ailsa Craig in Scotland.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20- Yes...- Yes!- Yes! - THEY LAUGH
0:27:20 > 0:27:22Dave, do you agree?
0:27:22 > 0:27:24Hmm...I'm hopeful the record player...
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- OK.- ..will bring the biggest in. But who knows?
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Well, I wish you the best of luck, but are you going to need it?
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Because you hardly spent anything at all.
0:27:32 > 0:27:33Remind me - the total?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35- 82.- Oh!
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Tim, could you not have tried harder?
0:27:37 > 0:27:40So who has got £218?
0:27:40 > 0:27:43- There are the notes.- Hang on.
0:27:43 > 0:27:45- One, two, three.- And the nuggets.
0:27:45 > 0:27:48Right, Tim, I'm giving you 218. What's the plan?
0:27:48 > 0:27:49It's a lot of money, isn't it?
0:27:49 > 0:27:52They saw me as a toy auctioneer, and you wanted to get some toys?
0:27:52 > 0:27:55- Yeah.- We got zero toys. I even stopped you buying a toy.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59So I'm going to make up for it - I'm going to buy the boys some toys.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02- Oh, good.- Excellent. - Yeah, really good.- Thank you.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04Sounds like a fantastic plan of action.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06So we'll leave the boys to their toys
0:28:06 > 0:28:08and we'll head to the auction.
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Well, we have made the journey
0:28:21 > 0:28:23from Kedleston Hall to Etwall in Derby.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26And Hansons auction house is the place. Charles Hanson is the man.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29- Hello.- How are you? - Great to see you, Natasha.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31- Very, very well. Thank you. - So pleased to be here.
0:28:31 > 0:28:32- Let's get straight to it.- Yes.
0:28:32 > 0:28:34Faye and Jane are the Red team,
0:28:34 > 0:28:37and we're starting off with this lovely corkscrew.
0:28:37 > 0:28:39- Yeah.- Do you know, the more I look at it, the more I like it,
0:28:39 > 0:28:41because it's got that age of jazz,
0:28:41 > 0:28:46it's speed, it's fast living, it's captured in the corkscrew.
0:28:46 > 0:28:48And I do think it's of the age.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51- So the potential buyers are out there?- I hope so, I hope so.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53What you think they're going to be willing to pay for it?
0:28:53 > 0:28:56Well, we've put a guide price on it between £20 and £30.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59Well, Jane thought this was going to bring the biggest profit,
0:28:59 > 0:29:01but the team did pay £40 for it.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03- So you'll have your work cut out on that.- Yes. OK.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05Now, let's move on to something completely different,
0:29:05 > 0:29:08this Turkish shoeshine stand.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Do you love it as much as I do, and the team does?
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Do you know, I love it because it simply is a work of art.
0:29:14 > 0:29:19You look at the emboss work, the design, it's striking.
0:29:19 > 0:29:23To a hotel today, to a consumer, it can really be enjoyed again.
0:29:23 > 0:29:24What you think it's worth?
0:29:24 > 0:29:27It's caused a lot of interest, actually, online.
0:29:27 > 0:29:28I've got high hopes for it.
0:29:28 > 0:29:31We've put a guide price on it of between £70 and £100.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Fantastic. The team paid 90 for it,
0:29:33 > 0:29:36- so they'll be hoping for the top end.- Good.
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Right, last but not least, back to another tiny object,
0:29:38 > 0:29:43a bit of silver. We've got this gorgeous pin case, 1897.
0:29:43 > 0:29:45That's got to be your kind of antique.
0:29:45 > 0:29:48I really rate it because it is a true antique.
0:29:48 > 0:29:491897.
0:29:49 > 0:29:52Also, it's a box fit for purpose.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55Look at the lid - I have never seen a box
0:29:55 > 0:29:57with a cast needle on top as well.
0:29:57 > 0:30:01So with a Sydney, Australian, Hardys link as well,
0:30:01 > 0:30:05the quality is superb and it's a box which, to silver collectors,
0:30:05 > 0:30:07I'm sure is a must have.
0:30:07 > 0:30:08What is the estimate?
0:30:08 > 0:30:10We have between £50 and £80.
0:30:10 > 0:30:13Well, the team paid 50 for it. In fact, Faye thinks this pin case
0:30:13 > 0:30:16is going to bring the biggest profit, so she might just be right.
0:30:16 > 0:30:17I think she might be.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19Well, it doesn't look too gloomy for the Reds,
0:30:19 > 0:30:22but they might need a bonus buy. So let's find out what John bought.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Well, ladies, I'll bet you're nervous
0:30:25 > 0:30:29because you left John Cameron £120 to go off on his own
0:30:29 > 0:30:31and find you an extra item.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34We're all absolutely dying to find out what it is, John, so reveal -
0:30:34 > 0:30:36bonus buy, what did you go for?
0:30:37 > 0:30:40- Ooh!- It's a late 19th, early 20th-century
0:30:40 > 0:30:41gilt bronze letter rack.
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Rustic style with this wonderful little cockerel
0:30:43 > 0:30:46perched up here on the gate post there.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49- OK.- Wow!- It's...
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Interesting. How much?
0:30:51 > 0:30:52£60.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54I'm a bit of a sucker for really smart desk items.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56I think that's quite a nice item.
0:30:56 > 0:30:58- Not sure I'd have it on my desk. - You wouldn't?- No.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00How much do you think it's going to get?
0:31:00 > 0:31:03When I saw that, I thought it ought to have a price tag
0:31:03 > 0:31:06of around £100 plus, so it did have nearly that price.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09- I got it down to £60, so I've given us a chance, in my opinion.- OK.
0:31:09 > 0:31:12It's not the time to worry about your bonus buy just yet.
0:31:12 > 0:31:15We'll get to the auction and then we'll figure it out from there.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18- OK!- So, the ladies don't seem to love it,
0:31:18 > 0:31:21but let's find out what Charles thinks of John's letter rack.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26Well, it here is John's selection - letter rack.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28This really captures me
0:31:28 > 0:31:31because it's that essence of good Edwardian living.
0:31:31 > 0:31:35An adorable gilded metal, slightly worn...
0:31:35 > 0:31:37And worth a lot of money? What do you reckon?
0:31:37 > 0:31:40Well, we put a guide price on there of between £20 and £30,
0:31:40 > 0:31:43but I hope it might just trot, even gallop away.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46- Well, John will be hoping that too, cos he paid £60 for it.- OK.
0:31:46 > 0:31:47Well, that's the Reds.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50So let's move on to the Blues, Paul and David.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54The first item is the alarm clock. Paul's favourite. Is it yours?
0:31:54 > 0:31:58I quite like it. Just because, Natasha, it's so 1960s.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Look at the helmet, an astronaut's helmet,
0:32:00 > 0:32:04- it's got that sort of Space Age... - Space Race.- Oh, I love it.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06It's a really striking object.
0:32:06 > 0:32:09Yeah, I can see it in many different places, actually.
0:32:09 > 0:32:11You can see it in a pub, in a retro cafe,
0:32:11 > 0:32:13or, of course, a bedroom.
0:32:13 > 0:32:14OK, how much, how much?
0:32:14 > 0:32:16Well, we've been quite cautious.
0:32:16 > 0:32:17Between £20 and £30.
0:32:17 > 0:32:20- Not too bad. £33 paid.- OK.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22- So that should be fine.- Yes.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25Then we'll move on to the record player.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29Now, everyone loves these. This is an HMV version, so...?
0:32:29 > 0:32:33That market now for vintage and that race to collect
0:32:33 > 0:32:35- is making these more popular.- OK.
0:32:35 > 0:32:38Well, David thinks this is going to bring the biggest profit.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40OK. I've been cautious - between 20 and 30 -
0:32:40 > 0:32:44but with the online market, it might really play sweet music.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47- OK. Well, hopefully. The team paid £40 for it.- OK.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Now, our third item is the one that Paul thinks
0:32:49 > 0:32:51- is going to bring in the most profit.- OK.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54- Close to my heart.- Yes. - It's a Scottish curling stone.- Yes.
0:32:54 > 0:32:55It's a paperweight version.
0:32:55 > 0:32:58- Do you think it's cute enough to get people bidding?- Yes.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02We want something we can date. This, I suspect, it might be 1970s.
0:33:02 > 0:33:03How much, then?
0:33:03 > 0:33:06I put a guide price on of between £40 and £60.
0:33:06 > 0:33:08Oh, my days. Paul is going to be so chuffed.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10They only paid £9 for it.
0:33:10 > 0:33:119...9... £9?
0:33:11 > 0:33:15- £9. Single figures.- Wow. - Can you believe it?- That's amazing.
0:33:15 > 0:33:16That's very, very cheap.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Well, if they are having trouble, the paperweight could help them.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21But, of course, they also have their bonus buy,
0:33:21 > 0:33:23so let's find out what Tim bought for the Blues.
0:33:25 > 0:33:28Gentlemen - Paul, David, Tim - this is a big moment,
0:33:28 > 0:33:31this is the reveal of your bonus buy.
0:33:31 > 0:33:36And, Tim, with your £218, we're hoping it's a toy.
0:33:36 > 0:33:38Come on, show us what you bought?
0:33:38 > 0:33:40Oh!
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Yes, it's exactly what he promised us.
0:33:42 > 0:33:43Dinky toys.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45Five original Dinky models.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47They're mid-20th century.
0:33:47 > 0:33:49I would say they're going to be produced in the '50s,
0:33:49 > 0:33:51these models we've got here.
0:33:51 > 0:33:53So, yeah, look... They're damaged, aren't they?
0:33:53 > 0:33:55That's the first thing you'll spot with these.
0:33:55 > 0:33:57You might call them battered, bashed or broken.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00In the trade, we call them play-worn.
0:34:00 > 0:34:02I think they're fantastic, beautiful things.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05- If you say so, Tim. - Maybe people like me find it fun.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07- I think that's... - No, I'm with you on this.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09I think... Yeah, I can see it. Yeah.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11How much did you pay for these?
0:34:11 > 0:34:12- For five of them...- Yeah?
0:34:12 > 0:34:14- ..£20.- Really?- £20?
0:34:14 > 0:34:17- That's not bad, is it? - No, no, that's excellent.- Good.
0:34:17 > 0:34:18This is what we asked for.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22But before you make up your mind - it's not quite the time to do that -
0:34:22 > 0:34:24let's find out if Charles is also a boy who loves his toys.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31What do you make of Tim's toy cars?
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Of course, Tim's a great toy man, isn't he?
0:34:33 > 0:34:38Concerns, as ever, to collectors, it's make sure it's boxed and in fairly good condition.
0:34:38 > 0:34:41These are not, they're quite play-worn, unboxed,
0:34:41 > 0:34:43missing a few bits and pieces.
0:34:43 > 0:34:46But even so, they are early Dinky, and they're striking.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48They're cool. You've got a nice variety of vehicles
0:34:48 > 0:34:50in there as well, haven't you?
0:34:50 > 0:34:52And these type of models are becoming more scarce.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55I would put a guide price on, happily, of between £20 and £30.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58Hopefully on a good day 35, 38, 40.
0:34:58 > 0:35:0020 to 30, OK. Maybe more.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Well, Tim paid 20.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05- Oh, that's good.- So it looks like it's all down to you, Charles,
0:35:05 > 0:35:07- on the rostrum. - It's a funny old business,
0:35:07 > 0:35:11but hopefully when two buyers come together, we'll see profits.
0:35:12 > 0:35:1439 is bid. Do I see two now?
0:35:14 > 0:35:15Fair warning.
0:35:17 > 0:35:20Right, Faye, Jane, John, this is exciting, isn't it?
0:35:20 > 0:35:23- It's really exciting.- Have you visited an auction house before?
0:35:23 > 0:35:25Never been, no. The atmosphere in here, you can feel it,
0:35:25 > 0:35:28- it's really electric.- We're starting off with a small one,
0:35:28 > 0:35:29- the corkscrew.- Yeah.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33We went with the novelty factor on it, so, you know, as a corkscrew,
0:35:33 > 0:35:34I think that's what elevates it.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36That's what we're going for, novelty factor,
0:35:36 > 0:35:39hoping that the internet's going to sell this.
0:35:39 > 0:35:40Here we go.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42There we are, novelty corkscrew.
0:35:42 > 0:35:43I'm only bid £10.
0:35:43 > 0:35:46I'm asking 12 now. At 10 I'm bid.

0:36:18 > 0:36:21You started at 10, but in the end, it sold for 50,
0:36:21 > 0:36:22making you a £10 profit.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24- So well done. Now...- Excellent.
0:36:24 > 0:36:25It's all going to go wrong here.
0:36:25 > 0:36:27..here comes the Turkish shoeshine box.
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Charles loves it. Thinks it could make up to 100.
0:36:30 > 0:36:33And it'll have to, cos you paid 90 for it. So here we go.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36For the shoeshine box, I'm bid straight in,
0:36:36 > 0:36:38I've got 20, 25 and 30.

0:36:58 > 0:37:00£80.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02- Right.- Back to zero. - Back to zero, exactly right.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04A loss of 10 means we're back to zero.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06The loss of the golden gavel.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08I tell you what, this could be the thing to do it for you,
0:37:08 > 0:37:10this gorgeous silver pin case.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12Again, Charles loves it.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15He reckons up to 80, so let's hope he's right this time. Here it comes.
0:37:15 > 0:37:17I'm only bid £40.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Do I see 5 now?

0:37:50 > 0:37:52The gilt metal letter rack.
0:37:52 > 0:37:54You've got a profit of £35.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57Do you want to risk it, or do you want to stick and pass?
0:37:57 > 0:37:58Going to go with it?
0:37:58 > 0:38:01Yeah, I think Charles is stirring up enough interest
0:38:01 > 0:38:04that there is maybe someone who wants to have it on their desk.
0:38:04 > 0:38:05Charles thinks this is great.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08Hold your breath, ladies, here comes your bonus buy.

0:38:30 > 0:38:32Ladies, a loss of £28.
0:38:32 > 0:38:36John, don't be too despondent - your team still comes out ahead.

0:38:39 > 0:38:41- Not too bad.- Not too bad. - Not too bad.
0:38:47 > 0:38:51Paul, David, Tim, you all look a wee bit nervous.
0:38:51 > 0:38:53- Is that what's going on?- Yeah. - Yeah?- Yeah.
0:38:53 > 0:38:57Our tactic was to not spend too much money,
0:38:57 > 0:38:59so I think we've done that.
0:38:59 > 0:39:01Yeah, you have definitely stuck with that.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03I gave you £300 and you only spent 82.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05I know, it was a fortune!
0:39:05 > 0:39:08- We have got a chance.- Well, we don't have time to play with,
0:39:08 > 0:39:10because, gents, your first lot, the alarm clock,
0:39:10 > 0:39:13for which you paid £33, is coming up now.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13This is your curling stone, and do you know...?
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Can I tell you something? You paid £9 for this.
0:40:16 > 0:40:18Charles thinks it could make over 40.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21So let's hope he's right. Here we go.

0:41:30 > 0:41:31GAVEL BANGS
0:41:31 > 0:41:32£20 was the price at the hammer.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36£20 was the price paid, so that's done nothing.
0:41:36 > 0:41:37And you will live to tell the tale
0:41:37 > 0:41:40that you made a profit of £48 on Bargain Hunt.

0:41:51 > 0:41:53- Well, that was good, wasn't it, teams?- Yes.- Yes.
0:41:53 > 0:41:57So good, in fact, that everyone is going home with some money.
0:41:57 > 0:41:58- ALL:- Ooh!
0:41:58 > 0:42:01And it's not often that we get to say that on Bargain Hunt,
0:42:01 > 0:42:03as these two know.
0:42:03 > 0:42:05OK. So the question is, who made more?
0:42:05 > 0:42:08It's been a special day, but for whom has it been extra special?
0:42:08 > 0:42:12A wee reminder that we never have losers here on Bargain Hunt,
0:42:12 > 0:42:15only runners-up. And our runners-up today -
0:42:15 > 0:42:18- the Reds.- Oh!- With a profit of £7.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21And the Blues, weighing in at £48.
0:42:21 > 0:42:24- No!- How good is that?
0:42:24 > 0:42:27We'll come to you first, Reds. Did you enjoy that experience?
0:42:27 > 0:42:29Not a huge amount of money that I've got to give you, but great fun?
0:42:29 > 0:42:31It was amazing. Yeah, really, really good.
0:42:31 > 0:42:34- We really enjoyed the day. - Oh, I'm so pleased.

0:42:44 > 0:42:47- Was it a great experience?- It was a marvellous experience.- Great.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Are you going to split the money evenly?
0:42:49 > 0:42:53Because as we know, Paul, your items both made a profit,
0:42:53 > 0:42:56and, David, your item just drew even.
0:42:56 > 0:42:59So £24 each, are we going straight down the middle?
0:42:59 > 0:43:02- Yes.- Of course you are. It was a team effort, wasn't it?- Yes.
0:43:02 > 0:43:05- All round, if you could, you'd do it all again?- Yes.- Absolutely.
