0:00:02 > 0:00:06Today, we're in Hungerford and this is the beautiful Kennet and Avon
0:00:06 > 0:00:08Canal, which runs through the town.
0:00:10 > 0:00:15It connects Bristol and London and spans 87 miles.
0:00:15 > 0:00:19Once a haulage route, the canal's now used for leisure.
0:00:19 > 0:00:21But there'll be no time to sit back and relax today.
0:00:21 > 0:00:26Our teams are ready to go shopping, so, will anything float their boat?
0:00:26 > 0:00:28Let's find out and let's go bargain-hunting.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54This is the battle ground for today's show,
0:00:54 > 0:00:56the Hungerford high street.
0:00:56 > 0:00:57Usual rules apply.
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Our teams have 60 minutes and £300 to peruse,
0:01:01 > 0:01:03ponder and purchase three items,
0:01:03 > 0:01:05which will hopefully make a profit at auction.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Let's have a look at what's to come.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11The Reds are ruthless negotiators.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13I can do it for 20. What do you think, Matt?
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Well, I was going to ask for a little bit less.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18- Happy to give 50.- No, he won't.- No?
0:01:18 > 0:01:19There are no flies on the Blues.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- It's slightly marked.- Oh, no, there, look, it's mis-coloured.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Silver-plated, is that?
0:01:24 > 0:01:27You're not going to get a silver one for £20, are we?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29No, that's true.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31And at the auction, the Reds are delighted.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- Wow.- And the Blues are excited.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Well done.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39But that's all coming up a little later on.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Now it's time to meet our teams.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45A good show today, because we have, for the Reds, brothers Clint and Matt,
0:01:45 > 0:01:48and for the Blues, great friends Di and Loretta.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50- Welcome everyone. Hello.- Hello.
0:01:50 > 0:01:54You're in good form this morning by the sounds of things.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Now, Clint, tell me, what is it you do for a living?
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Well, at the moment I'm driving coaches.
0:02:00 > 0:02:04I used to have a gardening business years ago then I semi-retired and took
0:02:04 > 0:02:07a test in coach driving, and fortunately a local company took me on.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09We drive school-kids around, mainly.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13They are very helpful, because I do tend to get lost sometimes and they
0:02:13 > 0:02:16tell me where to stop and who to pick up.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18Kids are great, love it, I love the job.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20And when you're not working, what do you do in your spare time?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23Play a bit of golf, I do like playing a bit of poker.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26I've done quite well in that. A couple of years ago I won about 12 grand
0:02:26 > 0:02:29in a tournament. I love the interaction with people on the table.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31So Matt, we know that Clint likes a
0:02:31 > 0:02:33wee bit of golf, but you love it, don't you?
0:02:33 > 0:02:34I love a bit of golf, yeah,
0:02:34 > 0:02:37but I didn't know he won that £12,000.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40You never slipped me any money.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42He kept that quiet.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44But no, I do play a lot of golf.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46I play in a golf society.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48We have a great time out with the lads.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Tell me about your career, because I believe it's been a really varied one.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Once I left school I was 16 years a mechanic,
0:02:54 > 0:02:58and then I worked for the chocolate factory out in Slough,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00and I was there just under 20 years,
0:03:00 > 0:03:02and I finished off there and retired.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Now, I'm going to give you £300.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Do you reckon you're going to spend all of it?
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- No.- We'll have to save some for our expert, I think.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12You have to check his pockets before we leave the building.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14He'll have to hold the money because I'm not to be relied upon.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18OK, so thank you for the tip. I'll be frisking you on the way out.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20I wish you luck, Reds.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Let's turn now to the competition, Loretta and Di.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Now, Loretta, tell me, how did you two meet?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Well, it was in 1995.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30My youngest son was starting college.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32And I thought the best way to find out
0:03:32 > 0:03:35what's going on in school was to join the parent-teacher association.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Di just happened to be the chairman at the time.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40One of the fundraisers that the PTA were doing at the time was a murder
0:03:40 > 0:03:42mystery evening in our old study hall.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46Everybody was there, there was a delicious supper and food being laid out,
0:03:46 > 0:03:49and Di and I were queueing to get our supper last.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Di's just ahead of me and all of a sudden she literally collapses on
0:03:53 > 0:03:55the floor. Now I'm first aid trained,
0:03:55 > 0:03:58so I thought there was something wrong with her, and somebody else shouts,
0:03:58 > 0:04:00"There's been a murder!"
0:04:00 > 0:04:03And I'm on my hands and knees, about to give her the kiss of life,
0:04:03 > 0:04:07and all I get is a wink and then I realise that madame was actually the
0:04:07 > 0:04:09murder victim. So it was a good beginning
0:04:09 > 0:04:10to the murder mystery evening, yes.
0:04:10 > 0:04:14Well apart from mad murder mysteries, what do you get up to in your spare time?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16I like cooking. I try all sorts of different recipes out,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19with all the famous chefs and cooks.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22And I'm also a supporter of a really nice charity.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24We have a shoe box appeal,
0:04:24 > 0:04:27so we collect empty shoe boxes and fill them with lots of goodies for children.
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Last year, 33,000 boxes went to Romania.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32Oh, well, well done to you.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34Now, Di, I believe you're retired.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- Well...- But you can't quite stop work just yet.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39No, no, I'm too busy to retire.
0:04:39 > 0:04:40I do invigilating
0:04:40 > 0:04:44so if you're in a big room and there's 150 students,
0:04:44 > 0:04:45you have to walk up and down,
0:04:45 > 0:04:48you have to look out in case they've got something written on their hand,
0:04:48 > 0:04:54or no watches, clear pencil cases, and looking out for notes.
0:04:54 > 0:04:55Do you have any hobbies that keep you busy?
0:04:55 > 0:05:00Yes, I like gardening, I love cooking but I never follow a recipe.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02I just make them up as I go along.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Seeing as you're very good with time management, if you're a very busy lady...
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- Yes.- 60 minutes on the clock, is that going to be problem?
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- Well, I hope not.- We'll see. We hope our expert will guide us.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14One thing, when you're doing an exam, you're always clock watching.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17Now the best thing about coming on to Bargain Hunt is that you don't have
0:05:17 > 0:05:19to spend your own money.
0:05:19 > 0:05:24We give you a budget of £300, so Reds, 300 for you, Blues,
0:05:24 > 0:05:27it wouldn't be fair if I didn't give you exactly the same.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Your experts are waiting for you.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31They're keen to get started, so off you go.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Thank you.- Well, we have a poker player in our midst.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Let's hope our teams play their cards right today.
0:05:38 > 0:05:42And of course the teams will need a helping hand along the way.
0:05:42 > 0:05:48Hoping to make a lot of lolly for the Reds, it's Philip Serrell.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51And who're you gonna call? Richard Madley is with the Blues.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56- Clint, are you looking forward to this?- Oh, I'm loving it, I'm really looking forward to it.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00- What are you going to buy?- I think a piece of glass, Phil.- What are we going to spend our £300 on?
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Some RAF memorabilia,
0:06:01 > 0:06:04I've got a connection in the family so something of that nature would be perfect.
0:06:04 > 0:06:09- What about you, Matt?- I just can't wait to get in there and buy some sports memorabilia.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11Blingy, shiny silver.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13- Oh.- Vesta case.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16OK, teams, it's time to splash that cash.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19Your 60 minutes start now.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Come on, guys. Go.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24- Get in there.- Come with me.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27- We're off.- Get stuck in, teams, let's go.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Afternoon.
0:06:29 > 0:06:33Remember that we're losing time all the time, all the time, all the time.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Don't put pressure on me, because I crack!
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Just looking at this whiskey tot here, but it's out of our price range.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42- How much is that?- Well, it's £500...
0:06:42 > 0:06:46- Ooh.- OK.- If we get something along those lines, but a bit cheaper...
0:06:46 > 0:06:49No, we want to get something along those lines but a lot cheaper!
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Yeah, that's almost double your entire budget, boys.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54You do have good taste though, I'll give you that!
0:06:54 > 0:06:57Meanwhile, the Blues have already spotted something shiny...
0:06:57 > 0:06:59A vesta case.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02- Edwardian solid silver. Richard, what do you think?- I like the term Edwardian.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05I like solid silver. I also liked the price that I've heard mentioned...
0:07:05 > 0:07:08- Yes.- Yes.- £22.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12- Is that worth actually looking at properly?- Yes, I would say it's worth looking at both of them,
0:07:12 > 0:07:14because there are two of them there, almost side by side.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18- The price is the same. Perhaps we could compare the two...- Yes.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Well, this is all looking very positive, ladies. Time to introduce shop owner, Col.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25- Hi.- Hi.- Could we have a little look at...
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Umm, what was it, Di?- The vesta case.
0:07:28 > 0:07:29And perhaps the one at the front as well?
0:07:29 > 0:07:32If we could have a little look at both of them?
0:07:33 > 0:07:35There's that one... Have a good look.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- Does that feel warm? - Yes.- Silver is warm.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40That's always a good clue. Silver plate is colder.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42It's slightly marked, is that going to...?
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Well... If you were that old!
0:07:44 > 0:07:47- There we go!- You'll be slightly marked.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49That old line, yes, indeed.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51No, you know, it is slightly...
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Now, what I'm going to check on here, which is very important,
0:07:54 > 0:07:56is really how well it closes.
0:07:56 > 0:08:01I would give that a six out of ten for closing.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03- OK.- So it's got the...
0:08:03 > 0:08:07The maker's mark here. I think that's a Goldsmiths and Silversmiths company.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09And that's got a Birmingham Hallmark, hasn't it?
0:08:09 > 0:08:11For early Edwardian period.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14So we are looking at, what, between 1900 and 1910.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17- Let's have a look at the other one...- OK.- This, again, a rectangular outline.
0:08:17 > 0:08:21This has got the rounded corners, and it's got the striker underneath,
0:08:21 > 0:08:24which I'd probably prefer.
0:08:24 > 0:08:30This is a late Victorian, this is Birmingham 1893.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- What about the hinge? You mentioned the hinge on the other one. - So, it opens well...
0:08:34 > 0:08:36And then does it? And it clicks nicely.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39You know, they're both priced at £22.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43Would I assume that we might get the same discount for either of them?
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Yes. I can take either one down to £20.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48NATASHA: Maybe it's worth a haggle, ladies?
0:08:48 > 0:08:52You couldn't, sort of, look on us favourably and go to £19, perhaps?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- So we might get £20 at the auction? - We've got to make a profit.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- Would you consider that? Please? - As a rule, we don't.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00NATASHA: Well, it was worth a try, Loretta!
0:09:00 > 0:09:04- We've got to decide whether we really like these objects.- Yes.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07We know how much they are, you know, we know where they are.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10- And we can always come back. - OK.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11So, a couple of lots to think about,
0:09:11 > 0:09:15and a vesta case was on your shopping list, ladies!
0:09:15 > 0:09:20Meanwhile, the Reds have turned to dealer Dan for some insider know-how. Clever move, boys!
0:09:20 > 0:09:22- Now...- Cheers, Dan.- I don't know whether we are looking for a piece
0:09:22 > 0:09:24of silver, or if we're looking for a piece of glass,
0:09:24 > 0:09:26but we are looking for a profit.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30I've got a few little vesta cases. There's one down here in particular...
0:09:30 > 0:09:32NATASHA: The teams are loving their vestas today!
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- DAN: Here we go.- There we go. That's actually quite nice.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40If you lift that up, the hallmark will be on the corner.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41There you are, look, just there.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44And it's Birmingham. I think the Assay office there was set up there
0:09:44 > 0:09:47by Matthew Boulton in about 1757, something like that.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51For silver to be called silver, it has to be assayed, or hallmarked.
0:09:51 > 0:09:55- Right.- So it doesn't necessarily mean that it was made in Birmingham,
0:09:55 > 0:09:58- but it was there that it was taken to be proven as silver. - Checked, yeah.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Dan said he can do it for 25,
0:10:01 > 0:10:03- so I don't know where you are with that?- Oh, it is a bit light, Phil,
0:10:03 > 0:10:09when you've given it to me. And it's got a little dink in the top, so...
0:10:09 > 0:10:12I would reckon about, if we could do it for 20. What do you think, Matt?
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Well, I was going to ask for a little bit less.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16NATASHA: You boys are tough cookies!
0:10:16 > 0:10:19DAN: I can't do it for anything less, but I'll do it for 20 for you guys.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21- Oh, Dan, star. - Aah, you're brilliant, Dan.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Dan, you're a star, thank you.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26NATASHA: And there you have it - the first deal of the day to the Reds.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Right, chaps. What's the plan now?
0:10:28 > 0:10:30I like a little bit of glass, as I said earlier.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33But you wanted - you wanted something sports memorabilia.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36- Something sports attached? - Can I just ask a question, out of you two, right - if you go out,
0:10:36 > 0:10:38who gets the upper hand normally?
0:10:38 > 0:10:39- He does.- He does?
0:10:39 > 0:10:42- I'm the eldest, ain't I?- He's the eldest, ain't he?- All the time?
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Well, he's been eldest since I've known him!
0:10:46 > 0:10:48A bit of glass it is, then.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51You asked for that, Phil. On you go, fellas!
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Now, what's Richard spotted?
0:10:54 > 0:10:58Something that's caught my eye at the very bottom of the Cabinet.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01You know, we've seen a lot of silver, we've seen a lot of glass.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- Bookends?- Bookends, yeah. If you just read to me what that sign says...
0:11:04 > 0:11:10"Mid-20th century decorative stone bookends in the form of a giraffe".
0:11:10 > 0:11:13"There's a slight chip, hence the price".
0:11:13 > 0:11:14£39.
0:11:14 > 0:11:18How nice of the owner. He's pointed out that there are condition issues.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Yeah. Very unusual, quirky.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22A bit like us!
0:11:22 > 0:11:25I didn't say that!
0:11:25 > 0:11:28- Shall we go and find the man himself?- Yes, please.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Here's Col with the keys...
0:11:32 > 0:11:34- Down at the bottom...- Thank you.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36It's heavy.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Oh, it is. Thank you.
0:11:38 > 0:11:39- OK?- Yes.- There's a chip.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Hmm... Well, the good news is, you cannot see the damage instantly.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45- That's...- No, it hasn't lost a tail or anything.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48- What about any ears, or...- I like the colour and the quality of them.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51- They're very tactile, actually. - They are, aren't they? - They actually feel very nice.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54I wonder if that's the damage that they're considering. Oh, no, there, look.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Well.- It's discoloured. What price are on these?
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Was it 39?- 39.- 39. So we're looking at, what, 30...
0:12:00 > 0:12:03- 35.- 35?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05Yeah, that's going to be the price on those.
0:12:05 > 0:12:06- Yes.- Yes?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Yes. At £35.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10- Two yeses.- Yes. Let's call it a deal, then.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14- OK? Done? That sounds good. Thank you very much indeed.- Thank you very much, Col.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Well, it's not silver or RAF- related,
0:12:16 > 0:12:19but it is your first item nevertheless.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Well done, Blues. And just 20 minutes into your shop.
0:12:25 > 0:12:29Guys, I've got to tell you - we're not going to buy this but this is a real bit of fun...
0:12:30 > 0:12:33- Have a look at this.- Oh, right.- For a slightly rude biscuit tin.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36- No...- Can you see that couple just there?
0:12:36 > 0:12:37- Oh, dear!- On their own...
0:12:37 > 0:12:42Sorry, viewers. The pictures are too rude to show on daytime television,
0:12:42 > 0:12:44but it's still a good tale!
0:12:44 > 0:12:48The story goes that the rude illustrations were added to these Huntley and Palmer
0:12:48 > 0:12:52biscuit tins by a disgruntled ex-employee.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Later, though, a freelance illustrator admitted that he'd done it,
0:12:55 > 0:12:59just for a laugh and he held no grudge against the company.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Let's put it back. It's £110.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05- A bit too rich.- Yeah, that is rich tea biscuits!
0:13:05 > 0:13:07- Hey!- Boom, boom.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10- Come on then, chaps.- That was quite good for you, Phil!
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Speaking of tea...
0:13:12 > 0:13:17This is a 19th-century mahogany and cross-banded tea caddy which would
0:13:17 > 0:13:20have had a glass mixing bowl...
0:13:20 > 0:13:21Yes, that's what's missing, then.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23In the middle.
0:13:23 > 0:13:2585. What do you think, Richard?
0:13:25 > 0:13:29Over the years, I've sold many of these and I would say this is something
0:13:29 > 0:13:35that's possibly gone down by as much as 50% in the past ten years.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39So one looks at it and thinks £85 that seems reasonable compared with
0:13:39 > 0:13:43what it was then and now that's the price.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45Ah well, Blues, some good advice, Richard.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48Right teams, you're coming up to the halfway point of your shop.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52A good time for me to pop down into Hungerford Town Hall as I have a
0:13:52 > 0:13:54burning desire to show you a piece of local history.
0:14:01 > 0:14:07In 1566, a great fire destroyed six properties and a mill in Hungerford.
0:14:07 > 0:14:08In the centuries that followed,
0:14:08 > 0:14:11the town invested in firefighting equipment,
0:14:11 > 0:14:14and an early example of that is in the Town Hall.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Though its origins are still something of a mystery.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Here I have a Hungerford fire pump.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21It's from the 18th century.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26The design is one patented by A Newsham, in 1725.
0:14:26 > 0:14:32But this example has been pored over and yet no-one can find a maker's mark.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35Because we don't know exactly by whom it was made,
0:14:35 > 0:14:41it's difficult to date too, but the best guess is around 1730 to 1750.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44So early to mid 18th century.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48Over the years this has had a bit of a face-lift, but the nuts and bolts,
0:14:48 > 0:14:53the cast iron here, are all very much original.
0:14:53 > 0:14:58Now, Hungerford Town Hall is very proud of its exhibit in this fire pump.
0:14:58 > 0:15:00We don't exactly when it was made,
0:15:00 > 0:15:04but we do know that it was the second ever fire pump purchased by the town.
0:15:04 > 0:15:07And you'd think when this was manufactured,
0:15:07 > 0:15:10about 50 or 60 years after the Great Fire Of London,
0:15:10 > 0:15:15fire insurance would have been a much more prominent thing, but in fact,
0:15:15 > 0:15:19it was very much something that was only available if you could afford to
0:15:19 > 0:15:22pay the pretty penny that it cost.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Now, if your house or building is on fire,
0:15:25 > 0:15:29how are the Fire Service supposed to know that you are eligible for their help?
0:15:29 > 0:15:33Well, there are several plaques that still exist today.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Cast iron, lead, brass, some of them,
0:15:36 > 0:15:38and they are on the side of buildings.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Just across the road on the high street,
0:15:40 > 0:15:46there is an original antique fire plaque for the Sun Fire Office 1710.
0:15:46 > 0:15:51If you had a fire plaque, your building was deemed worthy of saving.
0:15:51 > 0:15:56And if you didn't, well, I'm sorry, it was left to burn to the ground.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57So how does it work?
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Let me talk you through it.
0:15:59 > 0:16:04This wagon here is placed near a body of water, a source, if you will.
0:16:04 > 0:16:09That's attached to a hose, and on either side you have the firemen -
0:16:09 > 0:16:11pump, pump, pump.
0:16:11 > 0:16:15400 litres of water could be pumped per minute and there was a reach of
0:16:15 > 0:16:17over 40 metres,
0:16:17 > 0:16:22but of course firefighting technology has evolved since the 1700s,
0:16:22 > 0:16:24and in 1977,
0:16:24 > 0:16:28local firefighters used this very pump in a charity fundraising exercise
0:16:28 > 0:16:31to buy state-of-the-art equipment for the local station -
0:16:31 > 0:16:35an example of the old breathing life into the new.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39So, could you put a price on a piece like this?
0:16:39 > 0:16:42You can. I have seen a couple go under the hammer and they fetch between
0:16:42 > 0:16:44£2,000 and £3,000.
0:16:44 > 0:16:45The thing is,
0:16:45 > 0:16:50it's almost impossible to place a value upon an item like this,
0:16:50 > 0:16:53and to Hungerford, this fire pump is priceless.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04Back to shopping, and with 25 minutes remaining,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07both teams are still on the hunt for their two final pieces.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Hang on, Blues, I am getting a feeling of deja vu.
0:17:10 > 0:17:15We are back here again where we bought the giraffe book ends,
0:17:15 > 0:17:17but I've seen something else in here that's caught my eye.
0:17:17 > 0:17:23The drum. A military drum, of the 19th, 20th century in design.
0:17:23 > 0:17:24It's probably not very old.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26It's a conserve pot.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30So, will this appeal to Loretta, who was after that RAF memorabilia?
0:17:30 > 0:17:33It's definitely got the military theme, which is what I was considering,
0:17:33 > 0:17:36- but we haven't seen anything really. - We haven't seen anything.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38So that's sort of slightly leaning towards a military theme.
0:17:38 > 0:17:41- Silver plated, is that... - Silver plated.- That's fine?
0:17:41 > 0:17:43- Have a look at the price.- £20.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45You see, we're not going to get a silver one for £20.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49- No, we're not, that's true. - Shall I go and find...- Do you want to go and find Col again?
0:17:49 > 0:17:51I'll go and find Col.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Cue Col with the keys.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- Di, do you want to have a look? - Who's going to have a look at it? Di?
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Hold that there. Indeed.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01- Wow, it's quite a bright interior, isn't it?- It is, yes.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Spoon not there, is that a problem?
0:18:03 > 0:18:04No spoon?
0:18:04 > 0:18:07Well, I guess if it had a spoon it might be £28.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10- Exactly.- Yes.- I wouldn't think that was a particular disadvantage.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14It's made by Viners, silver plated, Hong Kong.
0:18:14 > 0:18:19Members of the Viner family were travelling salesmen dealing in cutlery.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22They settled in Sheffield in 1900 and set up a factory.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26By the 1960s the company was importing cutlery made in Hong Kong.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Sadly, in 1982 they went bankrupt.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32- Quite unusual, isn't it?- The colour's lovely.- Col, it's priced at £20.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35- Is there any movement?- No, £20 is our...
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- Cut off.- Understood.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39It's got quite nice rope work round it, hasn't it, as well.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Do you want to give it a punt?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43- Go on.- Yes. £20.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47- Thank you.- Thank you. - Cheers, thank you.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50So that's the full asking price for the military drum pot.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53It's a bit of a gamble, but you seem pretty taken with it.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Meanwhile, the Reds are scoping out some furniture.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58See, that's quite nice.
0:18:58 > 0:18:59This little baby is...
0:18:59 > 0:19:01- This is 180.- 180.
0:19:01 > 0:19:07This is Edwardian and this is an example of a £300 desk ten years ago
0:19:07 > 0:19:09that's now worth probably 80 quid.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12And one of the issues with this is, if you look there,
0:19:12 > 0:19:14it's got a broken stretch, so we want to leave that.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17Oh, it's gone then. What about the chest, Phil?
0:19:17 > 0:19:19OK, what's the bad thing about that chest?
0:19:19 > 0:19:23- It looks too new.- Well, it's not new but it has a domed top,
0:19:23 > 0:19:25so if you've got a domed top you can't put anything on it.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28- No coffee.- If it's flat, you can put something on it.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30That's a very good point, Phil.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33And that's stupid, but it makes a difference to value.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35- Yes.- What's in there?
0:19:35 > 0:19:37This is all boxed in.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38I suspect this is probably French.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41It looks quite neat, doesn't it.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43It's all down to price, isn't it?
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- The trunk is £110. It's got to be to be £55.- OK.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Time to hatch a plan with Dan the man.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53You want 110 and we've got to make big money.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57We were looking at 45, we'd be happy to give 50...
0:19:57 > 0:19:58- No, we won't.- No?
0:19:58 > 0:20:0045. Elder brother.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03Easy, boys.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06- 45.- I will have to give the dealer a call, but I can do that.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09- There's no problem.- A good bit of team work, Reds.
0:20:09 > 0:20:11You are trying to get that for less than half price,
0:20:11 > 0:20:13but if you don't ask...
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Well, Danny. Good news or bad news?
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Good news. Can't do the 45 but we can do the 55.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22- He won't come down to 50? - I don't think they will. I think 55's it, I'm afraid.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25Well, it's a massive reduction. It's like half price for you.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28- So he's done a really good job for you.- No, thank you, Dan, I appreciate it.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31- That's the Bargain Hunt special deal that, isn't it?- Well, we'll go for it.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33Do you...
0:20:33 > 0:20:34- Shall we, Phil?- Sorry, Phil?
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- My word is my bond. - Thank you.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45Well done, chaps. Your second item and you all seem to like that chest.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48You've got your hands full today, Phil. How are they getting on?
0:20:48 > 0:20:50I think they've done really, really well.
0:20:50 > 0:20:56Spent £75, so we've got still a massive £225 left.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59I don't know if they're going to go big or whether they're going to go
0:20:59 > 0:21:03small but I suspect Clint's going to hold the purse strings.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Yeah, I think we've worked out that Clint's in charge, Phil.
0:21:06 > 0:21:09Now, the Blues seem to have had second thoughts and are heading back
0:21:09 > 0:21:11to where they first started.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14The vestas. But which one will it be, ladies?
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Col was willing to do a deal of £20 each.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20I favour one, you favour the other,
0:21:20 > 0:21:23but I'm happy for you to choose because you mentioned the vesta cases at
0:21:23 > 0:21:25the very beginning about what you might like to buy.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29Then if we don't make enough money on it, it's entirely your fault.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33I was about to say how very democratic, but
0:21:33 > 0:21:36there's a little bit of a blunt edge to this sword.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39The choice is yours. Is it the sharp rectangular or the one with the
0:21:39 > 0:21:40rounded corners?
0:21:40 > 0:21:42We're going to agree with you today.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Loretta's going to say something else on the day of the auction.
0:21:45 > 0:21:50- Will you blame me if it loses loads of money?- Yes, because I want my golden gavel.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53- OK. Which?- The square one.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55The square one. Right.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57Let's get Col over and we can close the deal.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00Excellent. And now it's...
0:22:00 > 0:22:01- Done.- Deal done.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04- OK, it's yours.- Thank you again.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06- Super deal.- It's yours.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09Take it away. Come on, let's go.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11So the Edwardian one it is, for £20.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14The deal is sealed and that's your last item in the bag.
0:22:14 > 0:22:18The Reds, however, still have to find that piece of sporting memorabilia.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21What we could do here is put a bit of a sporting lot together.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Yes, we could.
0:22:23 > 0:22:24Now, so we've got,
0:22:26 > 0:22:28a hole in one trophy.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31We've got Jockey Association.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33Jockey Association.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34These are £8 each.
0:22:34 > 0:22:39There's one, two, three, four, five, six.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42- £48.- I'll tell you what, your maths is quicker than mine.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44So if we can get them to about 20.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47I'm thinking you could put that in with it as well.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48That's £33
0:22:48 > 0:22:51and then we could make a bit of a sporting lot.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Where's Dan the man?
0:22:53 > 0:22:55- Dan? Here he is. Hello Dan. - Once again.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58What we'd like to do, we would like to know the price of that,
0:22:59 > 0:23:01we'd like to know the price of those,
0:23:01 > 0:23:03and we'd like to give you 30 quid for the two.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06I'll go and find out for you. Thank you.
0:23:06 > 0:23:10So while Dan gets you a price for the Jockey Association badges and golf trophy,
0:23:10 > 0:23:13is there anything else that takes your fancy?
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Those vases are very reminiscent of Dalton, aren't they?
0:23:16 > 0:23:18If we could have a quick look at that, that would help.
0:23:18 > 0:23:19Let's go and see if we can find Dan.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21- Where's Dan the man?- Where's Dan?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23- Dan the man.- Here he is.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26What's the news, Dan? Are you bringing news from the front?
0:23:26 > 0:23:30- I've spoken to Bob. - And Bob said?- From 48 to 30.
0:23:30 > 0:23:32And from 33 to 25.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36And if you want to take both of them, he said 50 quid for the lot.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37Can he go any lower at all?
0:23:37 > 0:23:41Give us one shout at the auction, maybe 45, because they go up in fives,
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- don't they. What's the chance? - I will take a pound off.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47I haven't been authorised, but I'll take a pound off just because you guys
0:23:47 > 0:23:49- are a bit of a laugh.- What do you reckon, 49?
0:23:49 > 0:23:51- Shall we have a go?- Will it make it?
0:23:51 > 0:23:54It's going to be tight, really, that.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56But it's your sporting thing.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58Don't start blaming me on this.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00He's got a point, Matt, this is your item.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02I hate it when there's a row, but we've got to buy something.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06Yeah, what about that little vase which is 16-and-a-half quid?
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- OK.- See what it is.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14Well, it's brand-new, it's trying to look like it's Doulton but...
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Is five or ten quid? It can be a tenner.
0:24:17 > 0:24:23So you have to choose one or the other, so it's either this for £10 or that for 49.
0:24:24 > 0:24:28- Which do you want to take?- Come on boys. You've got just minutes left.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31We'll go with the sporting stuff.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- Put you in your place.- No, that's fine.
0:24:34 > 0:24:35So Matt had the final say.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Well done fellas. You actually finished with one minute to spare.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43Time's up, so let's check out what the Red team bought.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46First up, the Edwardian vesta case cost them £20.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Next, the travel trunk set them back £55.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56And finally, it was the hole in one trophy
0:24:56 > 0:24:58and Jockey Association badges.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01Price paid, £49.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04Clint, tell me, you bought three interesting items.
0:25:04 > 0:25:06Which do you think is going to bring you the biggest profit?
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Just going to be the vesta and that's my favourite item as well.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11Now Matt, are you going to say the same?
0:25:11 > 0:25:14So my best lot was the sports.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16I'm hoping there's a big bang at the auction.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19So not only do you hope it makes the biggest profit,
0:25:19 > 0:25:21it's your favourite too? No, it's the vesta.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Unfortunately, you had to agree in the end.
0:25:25 > 0:25:29Oh, well! So the Red team spent £124.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32- Yes.- So I'll take 176 from you.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36Philip, you now have to work your magic with £176.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Do you have any idea what you will conjure up?
0:25:38 > 0:25:43I think it might be time to go and find some real sporting memorabilia
0:25:43 > 0:25:46- that might show you a profit. - He's a diamond, isn't he?
0:25:46 > 0:25:48It sounds like Phil's a man with a plan, so while he's off,
0:25:48 > 0:25:52let's remind ourselves what the Blue team bought.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55First up, they stuck their necks out for the giraffe book ends.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Price paid, £35.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02Next, the silver-plated military drum jam jar cost them £20.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07And finally, the silver vesta also set them back £20.
0:26:09 > 0:26:14Now tell me, Loretta, three interesting items, which is your favourite?
0:26:14 > 0:26:16I think the favourite would be the book ends.
0:26:16 > 0:26:17OK. What's your money on, profit wise?
0:26:17 > 0:26:20I'm hoping the little military drum.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22And Di, which is your favourite object?
0:26:22 > 0:26:25The giraffes, because they're unusual.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29- Do you think they'll bring the most money at auction?- Hopefully.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32£75 is all you spent, ladies.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34- I know.- So who has the 225?
0:26:34 > 0:26:36- I have, in the pocket. - Loretta, you're the bursar.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38OK, 225.
0:26:38 > 0:26:43Richard, the pressure is on because with 225 in your pocket,
0:26:43 > 0:26:45these ladies will be expecting something spectacular.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47You leave it with me. You're in safe hands.
0:26:47 > 0:26:48We're looking forward to it.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50We'll leave Richard to find his bonus buy and
0:26:50 > 0:26:53let's head to the auction.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04We're at Bigwood Auctioneers now,
0:27:04 > 0:27:06near historic Stratford-upon-Avon
0:27:06 > 0:27:08and we've been welcomed by Mark Ashley.
0:27:08 > 0:27:09Mark, thank you for having us along.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11It's a pleasure. It's lovely to have you with us.
0:27:11 > 0:27:14We're starting with the Reds, Clint and Matt,
0:27:14 > 0:27:18and they both think there's profit to be made from this vesta case.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20What I do like about this little vesta,
0:27:20 > 0:27:22or match case, with the little
0:27:22 > 0:27:24striker on the bottom is it's not been monogrammed,
0:27:24 > 0:27:27so it's plain. It's a nice little thing.
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- Blank cartouche.- Which is nice. 20-30 we're putting on it.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33They only paid £20 for it.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35That was a good price. They paid well.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39So from a small piece of silver to a big travel trunk.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41It's a lovely one, isn't it?
0:27:41 > 0:27:44I don't think I've ever seen one quite as short or as narrow as this.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46It's a nice, small size.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50And also when you open the lid it's got these storage compartments.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53I think it's a really good buy, actually. 60-80.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56Fantastic! £55 paid.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00On to the final, I would say item, but it's items plural for the Reds.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02They've got this hole in one trophy,
0:28:02 > 0:28:05but then it's accompanied by some rather disjointed jockey medals.
0:28:05 > 0:28:07So what do you think of the whole lot?
0:28:07 > 0:28:08It's a good little sporting lot.
0:28:08 > 0:28:10It's particularly the hole in one trophy,
0:28:10 > 0:28:12I think that's absolutely super.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14When you think, that is most probably the
0:28:14 > 0:28:17golf ball that someone then got mounted,
0:28:17 > 0:28:19I think it's really super.
0:28:19 > 0:28:2130-40 we're thinking for the little lot.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24They were happy to pay £49 for it.
0:28:24 > 0:28:27So perhaps you'll have your work cut out with this lot.
0:28:27 > 0:28:29In that case, let's just find out
0:28:29 > 0:28:32what Phil bought the Reds as a bonus buy.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36Clint, Matt, you welcomed Philip Serrell into the family.
0:28:36 > 0:28:41You left him £176, and now he stands before me.
0:28:41 > 0:28:44Where's your cloth? We're expecting a shiny red cloth.
0:28:44 > 0:28:47It's always good to keep something up your sleeve, isn't it?
0:28:47 > 0:28:49We did say sporting, didn't we.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52Oh, look at that little baby.
0:28:54 > 0:28:57I know you couldn't hit a six with that, but...
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Pakistan 1967.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01When a touring side came to this country,
0:29:01 > 0:29:03they used to produce these little
0:29:03 > 0:29:04miniature cricket bats with facsimile
0:29:04 > 0:29:07signatures on there. That was a fiver.
0:29:07 > 0:29:09It will make you £10 profit.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12- Wow.- You don't seem very excited about it, do we?
0:29:12 > 0:29:14It's Grey Nickels, but he's going
0:29:14 > 0:29:16to take that back in his pocket and he's going to produce
0:29:16 > 0:29:17something else.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21OK. A little bit awkward, because no, he's not.
0:29:23 > 0:29:25That is the bonus buy.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Of £176, you have only spent a fiver.
0:29:28 > 0:29:29Gentlemen, you're dumb struck.
0:29:29 > 0:29:32But don't worry, because it's not time to make your minds up just yet.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35First, let's see if Mark thinks this is a good miniature.
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- Now Mark, are you a fan of international cricket?- I am.- Good.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44Well, Phil will be hoping you like this miniature cricket bat then.
0:29:44 > 0:29:49Pakistan, 1967, not real signatures. Facsimile ones. What do you think?
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Is it worth putting into an auction?
0:29:51 > 0:29:53Yes, I think a collector might want it,
0:29:53 > 0:29:57but I don't think for a great deal of money. I'm only thinking 15-25.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00Well, Phil loves cricket.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03He loves stuff like this, and I'll bet he loved the price.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06- £5 paid.- Well, he did well. He did well.
0:30:06 > 0:30:09So we're moving on to the Blues, Loretta and Di.
0:30:09 > 0:30:14Both of them picked out these book ends as their favourite item.
0:30:14 > 0:30:15Do they stand out to you?
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Well, I love these, I think they're really rather comical.
0:30:18 > 0:30:21They're made in a craft village somewhere in Africa,
0:30:21 > 0:30:24not really 100% sure where, but they're really lovely.
0:30:24 > 0:30:2630-50 we're thinking on those.
0:30:26 > 0:30:3130-50 will do, because the team paid £35.
0:30:31 > 0:30:34And then we move on to what I personally think is the sweetest thing on
0:30:34 > 0:30:38the table today. It's that lovely preserve jar in the form of a drum.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42Missing its spoon, but surely still people are going to love this.
0:30:42 > 0:30:44It's very novel. It's a great shape.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47And although it's made out of rather poor materials, silver plate,
0:30:47 > 0:30:51and actually that red liner is plastic, not glass,
0:30:51 > 0:30:55it's so well made out of cheap materials.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58It's a lovely thing, but I am only putting 15-25.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59Again, it will do, Mark,
0:30:59 > 0:31:02because the team paid right in the middle of your estimate - £20.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04So not too shabby.
0:31:04 > 0:31:08- No.- Then we move on to a rival vesta case.
0:31:08 > 0:31:09We've had one from the Reds.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11What to you make of the Blues' offering?
0:31:11 > 0:31:13A bit more modern.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16It has got a monogram on it, you see, and I do think that's limiting,
0:31:16 > 0:31:18but good little thing, 20-30.
0:31:18 > 0:31:2120-30 once again will do just nicely
0:31:21 > 0:31:24because the team only paid £20 for it.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27So it's going to be the battle of the vesta cases,
0:31:27 > 0:31:31but I have a feeling that Richard is going to play an important part.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34Let's find out what he bought as a bonus buy.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Loretta, Di.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41Richard went off to the fair with £225 of your left over money.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44I know, it's amazing, wasn't it. We left him so much dosh.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47I wanted to buy you something of quality,
0:31:47 > 0:31:54something that looked true antique in style at least, and I've found...
0:31:54 > 0:31:56- Ooh.- ..this.
0:31:56 > 0:32:03In style, in design, this box or coffer is probably 16th century,
0:32:03 > 0:32:07and it's got this wonderful Romain panel at the front of the box.
0:32:07 > 0:32:09Now, how old is it?
0:32:09 > 0:32:13I suspect that even though it was 16th century design,
0:32:13 > 0:32:15it's probably 19th century.
0:32:15 > 0:32:17- OK.- What do did you pay for it?
0:32:17 > 0:32:19How much did I pay for it? That is the question, isn't it?
0:32:19 > 0:32:22I bought it for you, £65.
0:32:22 > 0:32:23- Oh.- OK.
0:32:23 > 0:32:2565.
0:32:25 > 0:32:29I believe this will make at least 100 at auction.
0:32:29 > 0:32:31It could have lots of uses, I suppose,
0:32:31 > 0:32:32could even be a stool to sit on
0:32:32 > 0:32:36if you've got guests coming in, maybe some books and things,
0:32:36 > 0:32:38needle craft things, sewing kits, something like that.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41Well, it's interesting isn't it, and that's the thing.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43You want to get the bidders interested in a lot, but
0:32:43 > 0:32:48it's time to find out if Mark thinks there's profit in the coffer.
0:32:48 > 0:32:51Now, Mark. I have a feeling you are going to love this,
0:32:51 > 0:32:53because it screams Stratford to me,
0:32:53 > 0:32:55this coffer box that Richard has bought.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57- Is it your cup of tea? - I do like this.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59Where we are, we are right on the edge of the Cotswolds,
0:32:59 > 0:33:03so we get a lot of people interested in country furniture,
0:33:03 > 0:33:06and I really like this. I love the size, I love the carving.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09I would think it's probably been made up around about 1900, I would think.
0:33:09 > 0:33:10We've put 100, 150.
0:33:10 > 0:33:12- I rate this.- OK.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15Well, 100-150 will do Richard very nicely,
0:33:15 > 0:33:18because, amazingly, he only got it for £65.
0:33:18 > 0:33:20- A good buy. - A very good buy indeed.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24- Are you looking forward to going on the rostrum today?- I am.- OK. Not nervous?
0:33:24 > 0:33:26- No.- You've done this before, haven't you?
0:33:26 > 0:33:29Well, Mark, take it away.
0:33:29 > 0:33:3455, 65, 75 and I'll sell.
0:33:34 > 0:33:36Clint, Matt, how are you feeling?
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- Cos this is it, this is what it's all been about.- Excited.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41I was a bit nervous, but I feel really happy now.
0:33:41 > 0:33:43Good. I'm pleased to hear it.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45- You've changed your tune. - Yeah, I know.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Your first lot is your most refined one, I'd say.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51It's the silver vesta case. You paid £20 for it.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54It should make some money. We bought it for a good price.
0:33:54 > 0:33:56OK, well, you say that now.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Let's find out if you did.
0:33:58 > 0:34:00Lot 180 now.
0:34:00 > 0:34:05Very pretty little silver Edwardian vesta case.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07Surely that's £20.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Lovely, straight off, Madam.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12That's what I like. Bidding without even being asked.
0:34:12 > 0:34:1625, 30, five, have another surely.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19Yes, you will. 35, 40 in the blue.
0:34:19 > 0:34:21- Five.- Happy days!
0:34:21 > 0:34:23The lady at the back of the room at 40.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27I'll sell. Are we all done at 40?
0:34:27 > 0:34:29- Yours, Madam.- Gents!
0:34:29 > 0:34:30- Well done.- Well done, Phil. That was
0:34:30 > 0:34:32the first one you picked up. Brilliant stuff.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34- Well done.- £40 was the hammer price.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37Yeah, we bought it, a good bit of haggling that was.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40It paid off cos you've just made a £20 profit.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44Here's hoping it continues. Here comes the travel trunk,
0:34:44 > 0:34:45and you paid £55. OK?
0:34:45 > 0:34:49It starts straight off with me at 60.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51Who's going to bid me 70?
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Oh, everybody wants it.
0:34:53 > 0:34:55Get in there!
0:34:55 > 0:34:56Two or three hands in the room.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59The internet came in at 70 as well.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01I might start with that 70.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Would you go 80 with me? Thank you. 80 in the room.
0:35:04 > 0:35:0790, 100, 110.
0:35:07 > 0:35:08It's now 120 on the net.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11130? 130, well done.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13- 140.- Isn't this good.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Do you see 150, are you all out?
0:35:16 > 0:35:17You were all in earlier.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19At the moment, it's on the net.
0:35:19 > 0:35:22It's on the net, I will sell at £140.
0:35:22 > 0:35:25You're sure? 140.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29140, unbelievable!
0:35:29 > 0:35:31Gents, that's an £85 profit.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33- So...- I said that was the one.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36- He always said it was the one. - I knew it, I knew that would do it.
0:35:36 > 0:35:40Two out of three sold and you've already made £105.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42So here comes your kind of disjointed,
0:35:42 > 0:35:44but interesting sporting lot.
0:35:44 > 0:35:46You paid £49. Here it comes.
0:35:46 > 0:35:50Fabulous little lot, what about £30 for that?
0:35:50 > 0:35:51£30, surely.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53Interesting piece, 20 then.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56We've got to sell it. Madam, 20?
0:35:56 > 0:35:57Who's got five?
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Who's got 25, 30, five.
0:35:59 > 0:36:0140, five. 50?
0:36:05 > 0:36:07At 45, at the moment.
0:36:07 > 0:36:08No, no, one more to go.
0:36:08 > 0:36:11Are we all done? Is that it?
0:36:11 > 0:36:16And at 45, and I'll sell, 45!
0:36:16 > 0:36:18- Gents.- That's your fault.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20You were on course for a golden gavel.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22So it's a loss of £4.
0:36:22 > 0:36:26Not the end of the world, because overall, £101 profit.
0:36:26 > 0:36:28Wow!
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Right, and now you've got a decision to make as a team,
0:36:30 > 0:36:32because Phil went out with you in mind
0:36:32 > 0:36:35and he bought a miniature cricket bat.
0:36:35 > 0:36:36He paid £5 for it,
0:36:36 > 0:36:38and now you have to decide whether
0:36:38 > 0:36:41or not you think it's worth investing in.
0:36:41 > 0:36:43Are you going to go with the bonus buy?
0:36:43 > 0:36:44- Oh, yeah. Defo.- Defo?
0:36:44 > 0:36:47- Of course we are.- It's going to be great.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49OK, Phil, all eyes on you. Here comes the cricket bat.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52So what about this little collector's item,
0:36:52 > 0:36:53nice cabinet piece.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56- The internet's very kindly come straight in at £15.- Oh, Phil.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58Who's got 20 for it?
0:36:58 > 0:37:01- Well done, mate.- Who's giving me 20?
0:37:01 > 0:37:0320, thank you, 20.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05Internet, would you come back at 25?
0:37:05 > 0:37:07A lady's just bid me 20 in the room.
0:37:07 > 0:37:10Will you have 25, otherwise I'm
0:37:10 > 0:37:14selling on my immediate left at £20?
0:37:14 > 0:37:1520.
0:37:15 > 0:37:19- Fantastic.- Well done, mate. You've done better than you said.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22Philip Searle has done it again. So it's another £15
0:37:22 > 0:37:26added to the total, overall, £116.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28- Oh, lovely.- Brilliant.- Yeah, great.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30And it was all down to you, Matt.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32No.
0:37:32 > 0:37:34Listen, keep it a secret from the Blues, don't say anything.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36- No, we won't.- OK.
0:37:40 > 0:37:44The Blue team. This is it, auction time.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46- Are you nervous?- A little bit.
0:37:46 > 0:37:47- Excited.- Excited?
0:37:47 > 0:37:51Yes, and hope we make more than we bought it for, yeah.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Oh, that would be so good, wouldn't it?
0:37:53 > 0:37:54So I wish you the best of luck.
0:37:54 > 0:37:58- Thank you.- Are you ready for this? - Yes.- We're going with the giraffe.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00This is your favourite, I remember.
0:38:00 > 0:38:03- I hope you make more than the £35 paid.- So do we!- Here they go.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06I've got £30 in commission to start.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08At 35, 35 and 40 now.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12Yes! At 35 and 35, surely someone, 40, Madam.
0:38:12 > 0:38:13Five, 50?
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Five, 60?
0:38:15 > 0:38:17At 55, at 55.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Surely 60 now.
0:38:19 > 0:38:23Eight will do. I can do it, finish, go on, 58.
0:38:23 > 0:38:25Have one more! Well done.
0:38:25 > 0:38:27At 58. Surely, 60.
0:38:27 > 0:38:29It's a lovely lot, thank you, madam.
0:38:29 > 0:38:3258's the lady at the back, and it's away.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33Well done, Madam.
0:38:33 > 0:38:35- Well done, £58. - Good start, good start.
0:38:35 > 0:38:40- Good start, good start.- So £58 pounds equals a profit of 23.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43Excellent start. So here comes the preserve jar.
0:38:43 > 0:38:45- You paid £20.- We did.
0:38:45 > 0:38:48What about it? Surely that's going to make about £20.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50A lovely little thing.
0:38:50 > 0:38:5415, then, surely, you're not going let to go for less than that.
0:38:54 > 0:38:56It will grace anybody's table, surely.
0:38:56 > 0:38:57£10 for it.
0:38:57 > 0:39:00Ten, 15, 20.
0:39:00 > 0:39:0115 at the back.
0:39:01 > 0:39:04Gentleman in the middle at 15. Surely, there will be another.
0:39:04 > 0:39:05I'm with you, sir.
0:39:05 > 0:39:10Middle of the room at £15, and we'll sell.
0:39:10 > 0:39:11Sold.
0:39:11 > 0:39:14I can't offer you a golden gavel.
0:39:14 > 0:39:16It's made £15.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18It's a wee loss of five.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21- OK.- Overall, you're still in profit, you're still up £18.
0:39:21 > 0:39:25- OK.- So here comes the matchbox case from 1903, £20 paid again.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27So, come on.
0:39:27 > 0:39:30Lot 220. £20, surely, that will be...
0:39:30 > 0:39:33Thank you, madam. I like you, you just go for it.
0:39:33 > 0:39:35Straight in, no messing.
0:39:35 > 0:39:39£20. Who's got five? I think it sounds a bit cheap to me.
0:39:39 > 0:39:41Don't let her get it at £20.
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Have another. Without competition,
0:39:44 > 0:39:48the lady at the back will get it for £20.
0:39:49 > 0:39:53- 20!- Even Stevens, even Stevens. - Wiped its face.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58It's a shame it didn't make a profit, but it also didn't do any damage.
0:39:58 > 0:40:04It caused no profit, no loss but overall, a profit of £18.
0:40:04 > 0:40:05So £18 in the pot.
0:40:05 > 0:40:07- You've got to be chuffed with that. - Yes, we are.- It's not bad.
0:40:07 > 0:40:10A profit on Bargain Hunt isn't often.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14Right, ladies, we have got a question for you.
0:40:14 > 0:40:17Do you want to go ahead with the Bonus Buy?
0:40:17 > 0:40:23It's a 17th-century style coffer for which Richard paid £65.
0:40:23 > 0:40:25- We liked it.- Yeah.- We're going to go with it.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Right, ladies, you're putting your faith in Richard Madley.
0:40:28 > 0:40:29- Yes.- Quite rightly,
0:40:29 > 0:40:33because he paid £65 for this coffer and the auctioneer thinks it could
0:40:33 > 0:40:35make 150. So fingers crossed.
0:40:36 > 0:40:40Great thing, great colour, internet straight in at £100.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42Yes! Well done.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46We haven't sold it yet.
0:40:46 > 0:40:50I'm in the room at 120. You need to be 140, sir, 160, 150, 160.
0:40:50 > 0:40:55- 170.- Rock on, Mr Madley!- 160 with you at the moment, sir.
0:40:55 > 0:41:00In the front at 160, I'll sell, are we all done?
0:41:00 > 0:41:04- Sold!- How good is that?
0:41:05 > 0:41:07Champagne!
0:41:07 > 0:41:09Jubilation, jubilation.
0:41:09 > 0:41:14£160 was the hammer price, a profit of £95.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17- How good is that?- That's very good.
0:41:17 > 0:41:21So when we add that to your running total of 18, a profit of £113.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23Yes!
0:41:23 > 0:41:25Amazing, but you know what, on Bargain Hunt,
0:41:25 > 0:41:27it could or it could not be a winning score.
0:41:27 > 0:41:31So say nothing to the Reds, and let's see how it all pans out.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33- Lovely, yes. - I'll get my tissue out now.
0:41:38 > 0:41:41Well, well, well.
0:41:41 > 0:41:42How do you do it?
0:41:42 > 0:41:47I'll never know. Somehow we have ended up with a very close result.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50Oh!
0:41:50 > 0:41:52Between you...
0:41:52 > 0:41:55- £3. - No!- No!- £3.
0:41:55 > 0:42:00Each team had one item that made a seriously big profit.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04- Oh!- Who profited the most?
0:42:04 > 0:42:05Today's runners-up...
0:42:08 > 0:42:09The Blues!
0:42:09 > 0:42:12Come on!
0:42:12 > 0:42:15By £3. £113 and £116.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17I told you we had you!
0:42:20 > 0:42:26Blues, it was really Richard who came in for you because that coffer,
0:42:26 > 0:42:28£95 profit on the Bonus Buy.
0:42:28 > 0:42:34It was great, which means I can hand to you £113.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36It's such a good result.
0:42:36 > 0:42:39Thank you, Reds, I agree.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41I will leave you to enjoy your profit.
0:42:41 > 0:42:44- Thank you.- As I turn to the Reds.
0:42:44 > 0:42:49Unbelievable, pipping you at the post by £3 with £116.
