1
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,801
Hello and welcome to Bargain
Hunt from West Sussex.
2
00:00:04,802 --> 00:00:08,841
Now, before we meet today's teams,
I have three objects to show you.
3
00:00:08,842 --> 00:00:11,921
They're all very different,
But they have one thing in common.
4
00:00:11,922 --> 00:00:15,681
Let's start with this
Stone Age flint arrowhead.
5
00:00:15,682 --> 00:00:20,001
Next, we have this early
20th century fire engine.
6
00:00:20,002 --> 00:00:22,841
And then we have this
Canadian Army shield.
7
00:00:22,842 --> 00:00:26,521
Any ideas? Well, they're
all linked to the history
8
00:00:26,522 --> 00:00:29,081
Of this magnificent mansion.
9
00:00:29,082 --> 00:00:30,801
Wakehurst.
10
00:00:30,802 --> 00:00:34,281
Later I'll be finding out how
These objects help tell the story
11
00:00:34,282 --> 00:00:37,201
Of this historic Elizabethan house.
12
00:00:37,202 --> 00:00:40,081
But first, it's time to see
what treasures our teams
13
00:00:40,082 --> 00:00:43,160
Can uncover at the fair.
Let's go bargain-hunting!
14
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,281
Today's Reds and Blues
will be bargain-hunting
15
00:01:07,282 --> 00:01:09,800
At the South of England
Showground in Ardingly.
16
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:15,121
Our teams will have £300,
and just 60 minutes on the clock
17
00:01:15,122 --> 00:01:17,161
To find three items to take to auction
18
00:01:17,162 --> 00:01:19,281
In the hope of making a profit.
19
00:01:19,282 --> 00:01:23,521
But they must make sure one
item costs at least £75,
20
00:01:23,522 --> 00:01:25,481
And I've set them a challenge.
21
00:01:25,482 --> 00:01:27,441
The team that makes the bigger profit
22
00:01:27,442 --> 00:01:30,081
Or the smaller loss will
be crowned the winners.
23
00:01:30,082 --> 00:01:32,721
Let's see who's up for today's challenge.
24
00:01:32,722 --> 00:01:34,841
I'm Abby. I'm Della.
25
00:01:34,842 --> 00:01:37,240
BOTH: And we are the Welsh dragon hunters!
26
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,241
{\an8}Ooh! Fiery stuff!
27
00:01:40,242 --> 00:01:42,281
So why Bargain Hunt?
28
00:01:42,282 --> 00:01:44,801
We love shopping, we love bargains.
29
00:01:44,802 --> 00:01:47,921
And she's obsessed with the programme!
30
00:01:47,922 --> 00:01:51,001
Glad to hear it! You must have some tactics,
then?
31
00:01:51,002 --> 00:01:54,801
No, we're just going to wing it.
Wing it and win!
32
00:01:54,802 --> 00:01:57,921
At least you're honest! Who's in charge?
33
00:01:57,922 --> 00:02:02,801
She looks so polite and friendly,
But she's got a sting in her tail.
34
00:02:02,802 --> 00:02:04,681
Oh, has she, now?
35
00:02:04,682 --> 00:02:06,961
Well, let's see who you're up against.
36
00:02:06,962 --> 00:02:08,761
I'm Sonal. And I'm Ruhi.
37
00:02:08,762 --> 00:02:11,121
BOTH: And we're in it to win it!
38
00:02:11,122 --> 00:02:14,600
{\an8}Sounding confident, I like it!
What kind of team will you be?
39
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,481
We're very similar because we're, like,
quite hotheads.
40
00:02:19,482 --> 00:02:21,561
Can we expect fireworks?
41
00:02:21,562 --> 00:02:24,681
Yes. Um... Because I think you're
Quite particular on what you like,
42
00:02:24,682 --> 00:02:25,881
And so am I.
43
00:02:25,882 --> 00:02:27,721
Who's the boss?
44
00:02:27,722 --> 00:02:30,441
Certain things, it will be Ruhi.
45
00:02:30,442 --> 00:02:32,641
I might have to stand my ground.
46
00:02:32,642 --> 00:02:36,481
Sounds like Sonal will be
dancing to Ruhi's tune!
47
00:02:36,482 --> 00:02:38,441
Right. Let's get started.
48
00:02:38,442 --> 00:02:40,001
Hello, teams!
49
00:02:40,002 --> 00:02:43,121
Hello. Hi! So good to see you.
How are you, Reds?
50
00:02:43,122 --> 00:02:45,521
Good, thank you! Ready for action!
51
00:02:45,522 --> 00:02:48,321
Ready for action! Can the same be said of you,
Blues?
52
00:02:48,322 --> 00:02:50,681
Oh, yeah. We are here
for the Golden Gavel.
53
00:02:50,682 --> 00:02:53,761
Oh, I like it! But first,
who's going to take charge
54
00:02:53,762 --> 00:02:55,281
Of the money for each team?
55
00:02:55,282 --> 00:02:57,761
Red? That's going to be me. Oh, OK.
56
00:02:57,762 --> 00:03:01,721
Abby, you're taking £300 for the Reds. Thank you.
And Blues,
57
00:03:01,722 --> 00:03:03,521
I'm going to guess. I'm going to guess.
I'm going to guess.
58
00:03:03,522 --> 00:03:06,401
Ruhi, money? No. No, definitely not. No? No, no, no!
OK.
59
00:03:06,402 --> 00:03:09,081
Sonal, there you are, £300.
So, Della,
60
00:03:09,082 --> 00:03:10,801
That means you take a challenge.
Thank you.
61
00:03:10,802 --> 00:03:13,041
Ruhi, a challenge for you. Thank you.
62
00:03:13,042 --> 00:03:15,921
So it's time for you to get on your way.
Thank you.
63
00:03:15,922 --> 00:03:19,272
Off to meet their experts. But
What do they think makes a good one?
64
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,920
We're looking for somebody fun.
65
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,320
Someone who's got their wits about them.
66
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:27,880
Somebody to guide us.
67
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,760
Somebody who's going to
get us the Golden Gavel.
68
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,881
And somebody who can
keep the energy going.
69
00:03:34,882 --> 00:03:36,961
And I've got all the energy!
70
00:03:36,962 --> 00:03:40,721
For the Reds, it's Caroline Hawley.
71
00:03:40,722 --> 00:03:43,401
Hello! Sonal, Ruhi!
72
00:03:43,402 --> 00:03:45,840
And for the Blues, it's Thomas Forrester.
73
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,280
Right. Time to open those challenges.
74
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:55,001
An item containing... Red! Oh!
75
00:03:55,002 --> 00:03:57,640
An item containing blue. Oh, wow!
76
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:03,081
Rev your engines, teams.
Your 60 minutes start now.
77
00:04:03,082 --> 00:04:04,641
Let's go! Come on.
78
00:04:04,642 --> 00:04:05,921
We've got to go shopping!
79
00:04:05,922 --> 00:04:07,721
Let's go. Let's go!
80
00:04:07,722 --> 00:04:09,041
You certainly have.
81
00:04:09,042 --> 00:04:11,081
60 minutes will fly by.
82
00:04:11,082 --> 00:04:13,240
So, what's on your wish list, Reds?
83
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,081
We want something unusual.
Yeah? Maybe with a bit of character.
84
00:04:18,082 --> 00:04:20,561
Right. Erm...
85
00:04:20,562 --> 00:04:23,241
But also, we want... We want
to take a chance as well.
86
00:04:23,242 --> 00:04:25,521
We want to take a chance on something as well.
Yeah?
87
00:04:25,522 --> 00:04:28,041
Our challenge is something red. It's red.
Yeah.
88
00:04:28,042 --> 00:04:29,721
That's a red bird cage. Yes.
89
00:04:29,722 --> 00:04:32,641
You know, something a bit different.
You're not...
90
00:04:32,642 --> 00:04:34,921
Abby, your face isn't saying you like it!
91
00:04:34,922 --> 00:04:37,641
I mean, we said take a chance.
That would be my take a chance.
92
00:04:37,642 --> 00:04:41,721
Would it? Can we talk to you
About your bird cage? Sure thing.
93
00:04:41,722 --> 00:04:44,841
I hope you have your big spend left!
How much is it?
94
00:04:44,842 --> 00:04:47,401
I could do, say 160.
95
00:04:47,402 --> 00:04:48,921
Ooh. Ooh.
96
00:04:48,922 --> 00:04:52,841
It's the first thing we've seen.
Yeah, yeah. OK. So probably not.
97
00:04:52,842 --> 00:04:53,961
Probably not.
98
00:04:53,962 --> 00:04:55,641
Yes, it's early days.
99
00:04:55,642 --> 00:04:58,841
No need to rush your red challenge.
100
00:04:58,842 --> 00:05:02,241
Now, has Thomas mustered up something blue,
Blues?
101
00:05:02,242 --> 00:05:04,801
So what about this little mustard pot?
102
00:05:04,802 --> 00:05:08,921
Levi and Sons is the maker.
Birmingham, 1901, I think.
103
00:05:08,922 --> 00:05:11,201
It's, you know, it's quite early.
104
00:05:11,202 --> 00:05:13,001
It's Bristol blue glass.
105
00:05:13,002 --> 00:05:15,041
Because if I hold it up to the light,
106
00:05:15,042 --> 00:05:17,561
You see it's translucent,
it's coming through.
107
00:05:17,562 --> 00:05:20,601
But do you see a tad of red in there?
108
00:05:20,602 --> 00:05:22,601
Oh, yeah. You can see the colouration.
109
00:05:22,602 --> 00:05:25,161
Now that is indicative
of Bristol blue glass.
110
00:05:25,162 --> 00:05:27,401
Bristol blue glass was sort of, you know,
111
00:05:27,402 --> 00:05:29,041
Made and invented in the 18th century.
112
00:05:29,042 --> 00:05:31,241
I think that could nail your challenge,
113
00:05:31,242 --> 00:05:33,321
And finding something blue.
114
00:05:33,322 --> 00:05:36,481
And it's sweet and it's silver, and it's embossed.
Yeah.
115
00:05:36,482 --> 00:05:38,481
And it's £25.
116
00:05:38,482 --> 00:05:39,721
How much do you think...?
117
00:05:39,722 --> 00:05:42,281
I reckon that's got £35, £40 all over it.
118
00:05:42,282 --> 00:05:44,601
I think that's a good bargain.
I think that's a good buy.
119
00:05:44,602 --> 00:05:47,041
But it does need a spoon.
So I'm going to ask the dealer
120
00:05:47,042 --> 00:05:49,481
To see if he'll chuck me in a spoon for free.
Oh, brilliant.
121
00:05:49,482 --> 00:05:51,921
Is that all right? That's perfect. Go on, then.
Excellent.
122
00:05:51,922 --> 00:05:53,281
Great idea, Thomas.
123
00:05:53,282 --> 00:05:55,880
That could increase bidder
interest at the auction.
124
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,481
There you are, spoon added. Amazing.
And it's still only £25.
125
00:06:00,482 --> 00:06:02,521
What do you think of that?
We'll take that.
126
00:06:02,522 --> 00:06:05,481
That's your blue challenge met,
and first item bought,
127
00:06:05,482 --> 00:06:07,361
In just eight minutes.
128
00:06:07,362 --> 00:06:12,161
Good going! Now, this looks right up your street,
Reds.
129
00:06:12,162 --> 00:06:15,481
It's a little Welsh lady.
Oh! Oh, she is Pais a Betgwn,
130
00:06:15,482 --> 00:06:18,401
Isn't she? Pais a Betgwn!
131
00:06:18,402 --> 00:06:21,841
Pais a Betgwn means 'skirt
and bedgown'in Welsh.
132
00:06:21,842 --> 00:06:24,761
So it's a tradition on Saint David's Day,
133
00:06:24,762 --> 00:06:28,201
The girls are usually dressed
in the traditional dress
134
00:06:28,202 --> 00:06:30,761
Of the shawl, and then
the boys might have a top
135
00:06:30,762 --> 00:06:32,281
With the leek and the flat cap.
136
00:06:32,282 --> 00:06:34,841
And then you've got your Welsh dancing.
137
00:06:34,842 --> 00:06:37,201
Dawnsio gwerin. It's like folk dancing.
138
00:06:37,202 --> 00:06:39,801
Folk dancing. Oh, lovely! Dressed like this.
Yeah.
139
00:06:39,802 --> 00:06:41,881
She's lovely. She's sweet, though,
isn't she?
140
00:06:41,882 --> 00:06:44,201
I don't think she's going to be £75! No.
141
00:06:44,202 --> 00:06:46,040
Never mind! Keep looking.
142
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:49,521
What else is on your wish list, Blues?
143
00:06:49,522 --> 00:06:51,801
Maybe some Georg Jensen pieces, but...
144
00:06:51,802 --> 00:06:54,081
Don't want much, do you?!
145
00:06:54,082 --> 00:06:56,761
Your daughter's got expensive taste!
Tell me about it!
146
00:06:56,762 --> 00:06:59,721
Sounds like Sonal's used to it, Thomas!
147
00:06:59,722 --> 00:07:02,641
Now, could this be in
the mix for the Blues?
148
00:07:02,642 --> 00:07:05,201
What's this called?
Well, that's a mortar and pestle,
149
00:07:05,202 --> 00:07:06,801
Straight from a pharmacy.
150
00:07:06,802 --> 00:07:10,321
You're mixing the drugs to make the, um,
the old medicines.
151
00:07:10,322 --> 00:07:12,681
In the pharmacies, yes. Yeah.
They used to mix it all together.
152
00:07:12,682 --> 00:07:16,681
They're also used in the kitchen
To grind cooking ingredients.
153
00:07:16,682 --> 00:07:19,961
I think we move on. Yes, we'll
Move on. I think so, I think so.
154
00:07:19,962 --> 00:07:24,721
While they keep searching,
the Reds have found some bling.
155
00:07:24,722 --> 00:07:26,201
What about that? Erm...
156
00:07:26,202 --> 00:07:27,961
I like that amber. Amber.
157
00:07:27,962 --> 00:07:30,561
You like what? The amber?
158
00:07:30,562 --> 00:07:33,121
So I think it's silver.
159
00:07:33,122 --> 00:07:36,241
Right. Nice little dress ring.
160
00:07:36,242 --> 00:07:39,561
Not great age to it, but it's red.
161
00:07:39,562 --> 00:07:42,441
Ah! Caroline's thinking red challenge.
162
00:07:42,442 --> 00:07:45,401
It's £28. Do you want me to go
163
00:07:45,402 --> 00:07:48,081
And see what it could be? Yeah.
Yeah, I like that.
164
00:07:48,082 --> 00:07:50,001
Yeah. Right, let me go and ask.
165
00:07:50,002 --> 00:07:52,161
Work your magic, Caroline.
166
00:07:52,162 --> 00:07:56,001
See if you can knock some more
off the £28 ticket price.
167
00:07:56,002 --> 00:07:58,761
Right. It could be £22.
168
00:07:58,762 --> 00:08:02,441
I mean, I would buy this at auction,
but then...
169
00:08:02,442 --> 00:08:04,481
What do you... What do you think?
170
00:08:04,482 --> 00:08:07,001
I think it would be better if it was 20.
171
00:08:07,002 --> 00:08:09,561
20, I was thinking.
Should we just ask
172
00:08:09,562 --> 00:08:12,761
Once more for £20? And I
think that would be...
173
00:08:12,762 --> 00:08:15,241
And would you both be happy
If it was that? I would. I would.
174
00:08:15,242 --> 00:08:17,481
I love it. Well, let me go and ask. OK.
OK.
175
00:08:17,482 --> 00:08:18,921
Thank you. Thank you.
176
00:08:18,922 --> 00:08:22,880
Back you go, Caroline!
Can you seal a deal at £20?
177
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,760
Yes! Yes! Yes!
178
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,641
Your first buy and your challenge, done!
179
00:08:30,642 --> 00:08:34,041
It certainly is!
And the red gemstones in that ring
180
00:08:34,042 --> 00:08:36,600
Mean you've ticked off your challenge.
Well done.
181
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,801
Right, we'll pop that down. And
Let's get on to the next one. Yes.
182
00:08:40,802 --> 00:08:42,321
Come on. Come on, then.
183
00:08:42,322 --> 00:08:46,521
Today's teams aren't hanging about.
One all in 15 minutes!
184
00:08:46,522 --> 00:08:49,921
Now, does Thomas have a
whiff of profit here?
185
00:08:49,922 --> 00:08:53,121
These are scent bottles.
Glass, beautifully cut.
186
00:08:53,122 --> 00:08:56,201
Being a pair is always good,
but it depends how much.
187
00:08:56,202 --> 00:08:59,081
I can do... Ooh! £95!
188
00:08:59,082 --> 00:09:00,720
No, no, I can do...
189
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,400
Steady on, Thomas!
190
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,001
50. 50? 50 for both? Yeah.
191
00:09:08,002 --> 00:09:11,041
It's not doing too much for me,
unfortunately.
192
00:09:11,042 --> 00:09:13,521
Ruhi, you don't think they're a go, do you?
No.
193
00:09:13,522 --> 00:09:17,321
So no cash being poured
into those scent bottles.
194
00:09:17,322 --> 00:09:19,041
What's next, Abby?
195
00:09:19,042 --> 00:09:22,521
I would like to find
something with age to it.
196
00:09:22,522 --> 00:09:25,521
An antique? Yes. A proper antique? A proper antique.
Yeah.
197
00:09:25,522 --> 00:09:26,680
What about this?
198
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,560
Yeah, that's pretty. Ooh! Careful.
It's really heavy, actually!
199
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,641
Wow! What does it say on the base of it?
200
00:09:35,642 --> 00:09:37,601
What does it say at the base?
West Germany.
201
00:09:37,602 --> 00:09:40,041
That's not a crack, is it, to the base?
202
00:09:40,042 --> 00:09:42,681
No. No. It's just how it's made. Yeah.
203
00:09:42,682 --> 00:09:46,561
This sort of date, you know, 1960s, 1970s,
204
00:09:46,562 --> 00:09:50,081
Is really coming back into fashion now.
Yeah.
205
00:09:50,082 --> 00:09:51,921
Caroline's right.
206
00:09:51,922 --> 00:09:54,441
The striking West German pottery,
207
00:09:54,442 --> 00:09:58,761
Produced mainly in the 1960s
And 1970s, is known as Fat Lava,
208
00:09:58,762 --> 00:10:02,361
Named by collectors after its thick,
bubbling glaze,
209
00:10:02,362 --> 00:10:05,640
Resembling molten volcanic
rock flowing over the surface.
210
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,121
45. 45. Is that something you fancy?
211
00:10:11,122 --> 00:10:14,601
I think it's quite unique, isn't it?
I think it's sellable.
212
00:10:14,602 --> 00:10:18,321
Yeah. I think it's nice, but it
Needs to be less money. Less money.
213
00:10:18,322 --> 00:10:22,081
Go on, Abby! It's your turn to negotiate.
214
00:10:22,082 --> 00:10:25,201
What's the best price you could give us?
215
00:10:25,202 --> 00:10:28,721
I'll do it for 35. Would there be
A bit more movement on that?
216
00:10:28,722 --> 00:10:32,201
Potentially? 30, then.
Are you going to go for it?
217
00:10:32,202 --> 00:10:34,401
I think yes. We're going to go for it!
Brilliant.
218
00:10:34,402 --> 00:10:39,641
NATASHA: Well done, Reds! One Fat
Lava pottery vase or jug in the bag.
219
00:10:39,642 --> 00:10:42,961
Two down! Come on. One more to get.
Thank you so much!
220
00:10:42,962 --> 00:10:46,440
That's right, Caroline.
And £250 left in the kitty.
221
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,921
With 20 minutes gone, are you
Pleased with how it's going, ladies?
222
00:10:50,922 --> 00:10:53,241
Yeah, I'm feeling good. Feeling... Feeling relieved!
Yes!
223
00:10:53,242 --> 00:10:57,281
Yes, we've had our two. Yeah. I'm pretty confident.
Yes.
224
00:10:57,282 --> 00:11:00,281
These Welsh dragons are on fire!
225
00:11:00,282 --> 00:11:03,281
You're not going to dampen the flames, are you,
Caroline?
226
00:11:03,282 --> 00:11:06,801
The only thing I'm slightly
Concerned about is they still need
227
00:11:06,802 --> 00:11:08,401
To get the big spend,
228
00:11:08,402 --> 00:11:11,761
And that can often be a little bit tricky.
229
00:11:11,762 --> 00:11:15,160
Well, keep them firing on all cylinders,
Caroline!
230
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,361
What does Thomas have up his sleeve?
231
00:11:19,362 --> 00:11:22,601
This is going to be a lot of money,
But it's going to be worth it.
232
00:11:22,602 --> 00:11:25,081
This is your hip flask.
233
00:11:25,082 --> 00:11:27,321
And not just any old hip flask.
234
00:11:27,322 --> 00:11:29,401
This one is made by Asprey's,
235
00:11:29,402 --> 00:11:33,001
A luxury British brand known
for its high-end accessories.
236
00:11:33,002 --> 00:11:34,921
I think Thomas likes it!
237
00:11:34,922 --> 00:11:36,361
Cut glass.
238
00:11:36,362 --> 00:11:38,201
And it's London 1896
239
00:11:38,202 --> 00:11:40,201
So it's Victorian.
240
00:11:40,202 --> 00:11:43,281
So it's 295. She might help us out.
241
00:11:43,282 --> 00:11:47,401
What's the very best on this?
The death on it's 200. £200?
242
00:11:47,402 --> 00:11:49,281
What would it make if we were... Yeah.
243
00:11:49,282 --> 00:11:52,441
I mean, it's a lot of money, isn't it?
You might make 220.
244
00:11:52,442 --> 00:11:54,561
You might make another £20.
245
00:11:54,562 --> 00:11:58,121
I can come down another fiver,
but that's it. 195.
246
00:11:58,122 --> 00:12:01,081
Ooh. Would you do this for 170?
247
00:12:01,082 --> 00:12:05,801
No, I can't. No. 180? No, sorry.
195 is the best I can do on it.
248
00:12:05,802 --> 00:12:09,121
That's a bit rich for us at the moment. You reckon?
Yeah.
249
00:12:09,122 --> 00:12:11,921
I would take it. I mean, it's lovely. Oh!
250
00:12:11,922 --> 00:12:15,321
I've got one who wants to buy it,
And one who doesn't want it!
251
00:12:15,322 --> 00:12:18,001
I would go with Ruhi.
I would just have it.
252
00:12:18,002 --> 00:12:20,841
But... I just think we're going
to see so many other things.
253
00:12:20,842 --> 00:12:22,681
And I think then we've got to come back.
254
00:12:22,682 --> 00:12:25,601
I honestly think we should just get it.
255
00:12:25,602 --> 00:12:27,961
Time is of the essence!
256
00:12:27,962 --> 00:12:30,521
Ooh, is Dad going to
give in to his daughter?
257
00:12:30,522 --> 00:12:33,441
Is that what you want to pick? Yeah.
Do you want to do it? Yeah.
258
00:12:33,442 --> 00:12:36,481
Go and shake the lady's hand, then.
Yeah. Shake the lady's hand!
259
00:12:36,482 --> 00:12:38,441
Get in! Thank you so much.
260
00:12:38,442 --> 00:12:42,641
Cheers, Blues!
At £195, that's your big spend
261
00:12:42,642 --> 00:12:45,641
And second buy in just under 30 minutes.
262
00:12:45,642 --> 00:12:47,281
Are you pleased, Thomas?
263
00:12:47,282 --> 00:12:49,441
Ruhi makes a decision!
264
00:12:49,442 --> 00:12:51,041
That's an understatement!
265
00:12:51,042 --> 00:12:53,481
You see quality, you buy quality.
266
00:12:53,482 --> 00:12:55,561
Like, we would have gone back to it,
267
00:12:55,562 --> 00:12:57,921
And we would have put our minds off it.
268
00:12:57,922 --> 00:12:59,561
So you've just got to go for it.
269
00:12:59,562 --> 00:13:03,080
Fair enough! Let's hope Sonal
gets a say on your final item!
270
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,801
Right, Reds, you've got £250 left,
and one big spend to bag.
271
00:13:09,802 --> 00:13:11,361
Is there a plan?
272
00:13:11,362 --> 00:13:14,161
So we need to be thinking big.
Thinking big.
273
00:13:14,162 --> 00:13:15,520
That's a start!
274
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,161
Hmm, this looks small, though, Reds.
275
00:13:19,162 --> 00:13:21,040
Will it cost more than £75?
276
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,561
What do you think of, um,
sort of like brooches now?
277
00:13:25,562 --> 00:13:28,401
Are they...? Yeah, brooches are great.
278
00:13:28,402 --> 00:13:31,641
Now that is amethyst, seed pearl.
279
00:13:31,642 --> 00:13:35,641
And that's probably Edwardian. Oh!
Bar brooch.
280
00:13:35,642 --> 00:13:38,641
It's probably nine carat.
And how much is that one?
281
00:13:38,642 --> 00:13:41,001
A very reasonable £85.
282
00:13:41,002 --> 00:13:43,001
Ah! 85.
283
00:13:43,002 --> 00:13:46,161
I could round that to 80,
give you a bit of meat on it.
284
00:13:46,162 --> 00:13:50,921
80. I mean, gold is at a very
Good price at the moment. Yeah.
285
00:13:50,922 --> 00:13:53,961
There should be a little bit of profit on that.
Yeah.
286
00:13:53,962 --> 00:13:58,081
Maybe one to think about? Because it's beautiful.
Yeah.
287
00:13:58,082 --> 00:14:01,001
A big spend contender there, then.
288
00:14:01,002 --> 00:14:04,401
Meanwhile, the Blues have
spotted a quirky table.
289
00:14:04,402 --> 00:14:06,281
Ooh, look at that. That's quite cool.
290
00:14:06,282 --> 00:14:08,041
You like the big occasional table?
I love...
291
00:14:08,042 --> 00:14:10,761
Look at that table!
I just think it's a very odd shape,
292
00:14:10,762 --> 00:14:13,481
But I think it's interesting.
Yeah. No-one will say
293
00:14:13,482 --> 00:14:16,681
They've got something like that. No, they won't.
I hope!
294
00:14:16,682 --> 00:14:20,441
Ruhi! Not too keen on it, unfortunately,
sweetheart.
295
00:14:20,442 --> 00:14:24,041
Yeah, but why? I mean,
look at the leg in front.
296
00:14:24,042 --> 00:14:26,321
Looks like half twisted.
297
00:14:26,322 --> 00:14:29,041
Dad's not liking it! Oh! No, no.
Come on, come on.
298
00:14:29,042 --> 00:14:33,561
Time, time, time! All right. Move on, move on.
All right.
299
00:14:33,562 --> 00:14:35,840
Sonal has taken charge on this one.
300
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,921
What's taken your fancy, Caroline?
301
00:14:39,922 --> 00:14:42,161
Now, I always like these.
And years ago,
302
00:14:42,162 --> 00:14:45,321
When I had a little cottage,
I bought one of these,
303
00:14:45,322 --> 00:14:47,921
And I didn't use it. But
do you know what it is?
304
00:14:47,922 --> 00:14:49,561
No. No idea. No idea.
305
00:14:49,562 --> 00:14:53,441
Right. It would go on a fireplace,
the bars of the fire.
306
00:14:53,442 --> 00:14:57,361
So that hooks over the fire bars at the front.
Right. Yeah.
307
00:14:57,362 --> 00:15:00,841
And then this, you push in and out,
with a kettle on it.
308
00:15:00,842 --> 00:15:02,601
BOTH: Ah!
309
00:15:02,602 --> 00:15:04,521
So you'd have your kettle there,
310
00:15:04,522 --> 00:15:06,721
And you'd push it in front of the fire,
311
00:15:06,722 --> 00:15:09,121
Boil your water, and then bring it back.
312
00:15:09,122 --> 00:15:11,561
Oh, that's clever.
And I just think, I don't know,
313
00:15:11,562 --> 00:15:13,841
It might be just me, but I
think they're really lovely.
314
00:15:13,842 --> 00:15:16,761
Yeah. Are they saleable? No! No.
315
00:15:16,762 --> 00:15:19,121
No, it was only ever me that bought them!
316
00:15:19,122 --> 00:15:22,561
Lovely story, Caroline, but,
you know the aim of the game
317
00:15:22,562 --> 00:15:24,112
Is to make a profit at auction?
318
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,201
Now, what's taken Sonal's fancy?
319
00:15:28,202 --> 00:15:33,241
What is that? It is for the...
For making a hole in a cigar.
320
00:15:33,242 --> 00:15:35,681
Exactly. A cigar borer.
321
00:15:35,682 --> 00:15:37,601
So when you get a cigar,
322
00:15:37,602 --> 00:15:40,601
You know, beautifully rolled,
You can't just put it in your mouth,
323
00:15:40,602 --> 00:15:42,161
Light it and smoke it.
324
00:15:42,162 --> 00:15:44,961
So you've either got to snip it, right,
and snipping it,
325
00:15:44,962 --> 00:15:47,121
Then you get a bit of
tobacco in your mouth,
326
00:15:47,122 --> 00:15:49,681
Or you've got to stick one
of those borers in the end
327
00:15:49,682 --> 00:15:52,121
And you bore a hole in it.
So when you light it,
328
00:15:52,122 --> 00:15:54,321
You can then taste it.
329
00:15:54,322 --> 00:15:57,041
Oh, interesting. That's
quite a nice thing.
330
00:15:57,042 --> 00:15:59,041
And is it...? What is it... Is it silver?
331
00:15:59,042 --> 00:16:00,801
It is, it's Birmingham, 1986.
332
00:16:00,802 --> 00:16:03,641
I don't know how many people
actually smoke these days.
333
00:16:03,642 --> 00:16:06,721
Now, we may not be big smokers
in the United Kingdom...
334
00:16:06,722 --> 00:16:12,361
True... But the auctions are
Very good at marketing their wares
335
00:16:12,362 --> 00:16:14,721
Across the world.
336
00:16:14,722 --> 00:16:18,721
95. But that's in your budget. Yes.
You've got to do a load of haggling.
337
00:16:18,722 --> 00:16:22,201
I just wondered what the best
you could do for me on that?
338
00:16:22,202 --> 00:16:25,841
The absolute death? 80 on that one.
80, OK. That's a little bit rich.
339
00:16:25,842 --> 00:16:29,121
I'll do 70. That'll be the absolute death.
340
00:16:29,122 --> 00:16:31,441
You couldn't do 69? I'll do 69.
341
00:16:31,442 --> 00:16:34,681
That gives you your pound for you,
in case it hits 70.
342
00:16:34,682 --> 00:16:37,761
69. Fine. We'll take that. Yeah? Oh, wait!
343
00:16:37,762 --> 00:16:39,321
We're buying it! Oh!
344
00:16:39,322 --> 00:16:43,721
Oh! Awkward! I think he got in quick
Before he was talked out of it!
345
00:16:43,722 --> 00:16:45,681
That was a very speedy shop, Blues.
346
00:16:45,682 --> 00:16:48,161
Three items bought in 35 minutes.
347
00:16:48,162 --> 00:16:49,601
Good going!
348
00:16:49,602 --> 00:16:54,041
Well done! I like the decision
Making. You know, we finished early.
349
00:16:54,042 --> 00:16:57,921
I think we deserve a cup of tea. Absolutely.
Yeah, I agree.
350
00:16:57,922 --> 00:17:00,761
It's thirsty work, bargain-hunting!
351
00:17:00,762 --> 00:17:02,362
Are you feeling tired too, Reds?
352
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:09,481
Oh! Oh, they're quite comfy. Oh! These are gorgeous!
Yeah.
353
00:17:09,482 --> 00:17:11,601
I can see some... What do you think?
354
00:17:11,602 --> 00:17:14,881
I mean, they're fun. You're thinking
You'd like to sit down, aren't you?
355
00:17:14,882 --> 00:17:18,332
I'm thinking I'd love to test one
Out, yeah. Come on, then, sit down.
356
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,721
Ooh! Yeah, it is quite comfy.
They're quite nice, aren't they?
357
00:17:21,722 --> 00:17:24,521
There's £180, the pair.
358
00:17:24,522 --> 00:17:26,601
What's your opinion?
359
00:17:26,602 --> 00:17:30,161
These are out of my area of knowledge,
I think.
360
00:17:30,162 --> 00:17:35,281
Sort of fluffy, furry stools.
OK, so probably not. Probably not.
361
00:17:35,282 --> 00:17:37,841
I think Caroline just wanted a rest!
362
00:17:37,842 --> 00:17:40,241
Back on your feet, team!
363
00:17:40,242 --> 00:17:41,760
Feeling at home, Blues?
364
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,841
This is good, isn't it? We finished early.
I know.
365
00:17:44,842 --> 00:17:47,601
Yes, we did. We saw what we
liked and we went for it.
366
00:17:47,602 --> 00:17:50,441
We did. Of course, yes. Yeah.
367
00:17:50,442 --> 00:17:52,881
No sign of Sonal's cuppa, though.
368
00:17:52,882 --> 00:17:56,281
And here we are in the sunshine,
You know, getting the rays. Yes.
369
00:17:56,282 --> 00:18:00,321
While, the other... Well, the Reds
Are probably sweating it out!
370
00:18:00,322 --> 00:18:01,961
We have this in the bag!
371
00:18:01,962 --> 00:18:03,960
Certainly sounding confident!
372
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,921
With less than 20 minutes left,
373
00:18:07,922 --> 00:18:10,561
I wouldn't say the Reds were exactly rushing,
Thomas.
374
00:18:10,562 --> 00:18:13,440
Anything catching your eye?
Nothing at the moment.
375
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,201
Ooh, look at this chair.
And you like yellow, do you?
376
00:18:19,202 --> 00:18:21,401
Oh, I like that. Yeah, I do too.
377
00:18:21,402 --> 00:18:24,721
She likes bold colours. Yeah.
But it's not old, is it?
378
00:18:24,722 --> 00:18:26,721
No, I don't think it is. No.
379
00:18:26,722 --> 00:18:31,361
It's not the age that's important,
It's the price! More than £75.
380
00:18:31,362 --> 00:18:33,681
What about these? Yeah, tin. Metal, yeah.
381
00:18:33,682 --> 00:18:35,761
No, not good. No.
382
00:18:35,762 --> 00:18:37,681
Perhaps it wasn't a wise decision
383
00:18:37,682 --> 00:18:40,000
To leave the big spend till last, Reds.
384
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,521
How much time have we got? Ten minutes.
385
00:18:43,522 --> 00:18:46,441
Ten minutes? Ten minutes left.
What do you think?
386
00:18:46,442 --> 00:18:48,681
I think you need to put your foot down.
387
00:18:48,682 --> 00:18:51,840
You're a bit too relaxed.
Do you have anything in mind?
388
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,201
We're going to go back to the...
We're going to go back.
389
00:18:55,202 --> 00:19:00,281
To the bar brooch? The bar brooch,
Because that was beautiful.
390
00:19:00,282 --> 00:19:04,161
So if we could get him down a bit.
Do you know where it is?
391
00:19:04,162 --> 00:19:06,041
My sense of direction is rubbish.
Down there.
392
00:19:06,042 --> 00:19:08,241
I was going to go that way! This way!
393
00:19:08,242 --> 00:19:12,321
It's a good job someone knows where
They're going! Time is ticking.
394
00:19:12,322 --> 00:19:14,481
We've got less than ten minutes.
Come on, quick, quick! Come on.
395
00:19:14,482 --> 00:19:15,921
We need to run.
396
00:19:15,922 --> 00:19:20,360
Finally, some urgency! Looks like
The fair's packing up, too.
397
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:25,761
Oh! It's here.
398
00:19:25,762 --> 00:19:29,681
Phew! Seems like there's a
different stallholder here.
399
00:19:29,682 --> 00:19:31,761
Could this work in their favour?
400
00:19:31,762 --> 00:19:35,161
We were chatting with your colleague,
401
00:19:35,162 --> 00:19:38,121
And he gave us a good price of £80. Yeah.
402
00:19:38,122 --> 00:19:42,321
And we were wondering if you would
Please help us out and go to 75.
403
00:19:42,322 --> 00:19:47,441
Yep. Oh! Lovely! Thank you!
Oh, you were so good at negotiating!
404
00:19:47,442 --> 00:19:50,321
Brilliant bit of negotiating! Twisted his arm!
Oh!
405
00:19:50,322 --> 00:19:54,321
Are you happy with that? I think
I'm happy. Yeah? Are you? Yes.
406
00:19:54,322 --> 00:19:58,241
You look happy! Good. Thank you.
Thank you so much.
407
00:19:58,242 --> 00:20:01,200
Everyone's happy! And that's
mission accomplished!
408
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,121
Hit the brakes, teams,
the shopping's done.
409
00:20:05,122 --> 00:20:08,841
Should we go and get an ice cream?
Yes! Oh, yeah. Yeah! Brilliant.
410
00:20:08,842 --> 00:20:11,320
Let's remind ourselves
what the Red team bought.
411
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,601
{\an8}Challenged to buy
an item containing red,
412
00:20:15,602 --> 00:20:19,321
{\an8}they paid £20 for this
white metal gemstone ring.
413
00:20:19,322 --> 00:20:23,961
{\an8}next came this rather fiery
West German Fat Lava pottery vase
414
00:20:23,962 --> 00:20:25,520
{\an8}or jug for £30.
415
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,921
{\an8}And for their big spend,
they're pinning their hopes
416
00:20:28,922 --> 00:20:32,761
{\an8}on this early 20th
century gemstone bar brooch,
417
00:20:32,762 --> 00:20:34,440
{\an8}bought for £75.
418
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,001
Abby, Della, when we first met,
You had that nervous excitement.
419
00:20:39,002 --> 00:20:42,641
But now you look quietly confident,
I want to say?
420
00:20:42,642 --> 00:20:46,321
Yeah. Definitely, yeah. Yeah.
Happy with our purchases. Yeah.
421
00:20:46,322 --> 00:20:49,241
Really happy. Oh, I'm so pleased
To hear that, Della. But, Abby,
422
00:20:49,242 --> 00:20:51,361
Tell me, which is your absolute favourite
423
00:20:51,362 --> 00:20:52,761
Out of the three that you've bought?
424
00:20:52,762 --> 00:20:56,041
I think my favourite is
the Edwardian pin brooch.
425
00:20:56,042 --> 00:20:59,081
The big spend. The big spend.
So that's your favourite,
426
00:20:59,082 --> 00:21:00,761
But which will bring the biggest profit?
427
00:21:00,762 --> 00:21:02,201
I think the jug
428
00:21:02,202 --> 00:21:04,321
Because it's beautiful.
429
00:21:04,322 --> 00:21:07,121
Excellent. Now, Della,
tell me your favourite?
430
00:21:07,122 --> 00:21:10,321
My favourite, definitely the jug.
431
00:21:10,322 --> 00:21:14,681
Modern, but it's got that
oldness about it as well.
432
00:21:14,682 --> 00:21:17,921
But the most profit
will be the pin brooch.
433
00:21:17,922 --> 00:21:21,561
Now, you had £300. You spent 125.
434
00:21:21,562 --> 00:21:27,041
Which leaves your new best friend Caroline Hawley,
£175.
435
00:21:27,042 --> 00:21:29,081
Abby, please hand it over. There you go.
436
00:21:29,082 --> 00:21:30,721
Thank you very much.
437
00:21:30,722 --> 00:21:33,761
Caroline, you're off the clock,
And your budget is quite big. It is.
438
00:21:33,762 --> 00:21:37,201
So what lies ahead?
I'm going to enjoy spending this,
439
00:21:37,202 --> 00:21:39,921
And I think I'm going to get you
Something a little bit sparkly.
440
00:21:39,922 --> 00:21:42,841
Oh, excellent. Oh! So,
while Caroline makes up her mind
441
00:21:42,842 --> 00:21:44,881
About a bonus buy for the Reds,
442
00:21:44,882 --> 00:21:47,521
Let's remind ourselves
for the Blue team bought.
443
00:21:47,522 --> 00:21:50,801
{\an8}For their challenge to
buy an item containing blue,
444
00:21:50,802 --> 00:21:54,281
{\an8}they bought this Edwardian
condiment pot for £25.
445
00:21:54,282 --> 00:21:57,201
{\an8}But will it cut
the mustard at auction?
446
00:21:57,202 --> 00:21:59,481
{\an8}Next was their big spend.
447
00:21:59,482 --> 00:22:04,561
{\an8}£195 was paid for this late
Victorian Asprey glass and silver
448
00:22:04,562 --> 00:22:06,881
{\an8}hip flask.
449
00:22:06,882 --> 00:22:12,401
{\an8}And will this 1960s silver cigar
Piercer cut it with the bidders?
450
00:22:12,402 --> 00:22:14,200
{\an8}£69 paid.
451
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,881
Blues, that was so swift and
So much time to spare at the end,
452
00:22:20,882 --> 00:22:23,441
You've even been sunbathing! Come on!
453
00:22:23,442 --> 00:22:26,761
Chilling, I would say. Chilling? Chilling.
You know?
454
00:22:26,762 --> 00:22:28,561
Now, your challenge was
to buy something blue
455
00:22:28,562 --> 00:22:31,281
But clearly your favourite
colour is silver.
456
00:22:31,282 --> 00:22:34,401
And talking of favourites, Sonal,
Which is your favourite item?
457
00:22:34,402 --> 00:22:36,481
The Bristol glass mustard pot.
That's your favourite...
458
00:22:36,482 --> 00:22:39,281
That's my favourite... But which is
Going to bring the biggest profit?
459
00:22:39,282 --> 00:22:42,641
The mustard pot. The mustard pot?
Challenge item all the way.
460
00:22:42,642 --> 00:22:46,081
Yes. OK. Right. Ruhi, do you agree?
Which is your favourite?
461
00:22:46,082 --> 00:22:48,001
I think my favourite would be the flask,
462
00:22:48,002 --> 00:22:51,001
Which I picked, and I'd say
that would make the most money.
463
00:22:51,002 --> 00:22:54,401
It was seriously expensive.
And then you got your discount?
464
00:22:54,402 --> 00:22:57,521
Yes. Yeah. And it was
still really expensive!
465
00:22:57,522 --> 00:23:00,601
But it's Asprey! It is.
And what's in a name?
466
00:23:00,602 --> 00:23:02,521
Sometimes everything. Everything!
467
00:23:02,522 --> 00:23:05,200
So you spent £289.
468
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,081
You have left Thomas with £11.
469
00:23:09,082 --> 00:23:12,521
OK. Sonal, please hand it over.
There we are.
470
00:23:12,522 --> 00:23:14,681
Now, £11 is not going to weigh you down,
471
00:23:14,682 --> 00:23:16,601
But are you going to spend it wisely?
472
00:23:16,602 --> 00:23:18,161
I am going to spend it wisely,
473
00:23:18,162 --> 00:23:20,841
Because I think there's a
silver lining to this £11.
474
00:23:20,842 --> 00:23:25,441
Excellent. So, while Thomas goes off
To find a bonus buy for the Blues,
475
00:23:25,442 --> 00:23:26,992
I'm off to meet the neighbours.
476
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,361
Just over the fence from Ardingly
Showground is Kew Wakehurst,
477
00:23:33,362 --> 00:23:36,961
A 500 acre wild botanic garden.
478
00:23:36,962 --> 00:23:40,801
It's a sister site of the Royal Botanical Gardens,
Kew,
479
00:23:40,802 --> 00:23:45,961
But it's also home to this
magnificent Elizabethan mansion.
480
00:23:45,962 --> 00:23:48,441
It's recently been through
a major renovation project
481
00:23:48,442 --> 00:23:50,001
To restore its roof,
482
00:23:50,002 --> 00:23:52,921
And behind the scenes
curators have been busy too,
483
00:23:52,922 --> 00:23:55,681
Revealing all sorts of hidden objects
484
00:23:55,682 --> 00:23:58,761
That help to tell the story
of this remarkable place.
485
00:23:58,762 --> 00:24:02,480
To find out more, I'm heading
inside with Bethan Hobbs.
486
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:05,480
Oh, wow!
487
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,721
What a clever idea.
488
00:24:08,722 --> 00:24:10,481
So this would have been a billiard room?
Yes.
489
00:24:10,482 --> 00:24:12,241
And then look at this table.
490
00:24:12,242 --> 00:24:14,921
Beautifully repurposed.
491
00:24:14,922 --> 00:24:18,321
The team have creatively
turned an old billiard table
492
00:24:18,322 --> 00:24:20,681
Into an interactive map.
493
00:24:20,682 --> 00:24:24,041
It was our own bargain hunt find
Because we found it for £100,
494
00:24:24,042 --> 00:24:27,441
And then got this topographical map
Of the site of Wakehurst made.
495
00:24:27,442 --> 00:24:29,721
So we could really tell the
story of the Botanic Garden
496
00:24:29,722 --> 00:24:32,161
From the ground up. I like it even more.
497
00:24:32,162 --> 00:24:34,681
You found it for a good price! We did!
Well done!
498
00:24:34,682 --> 00:24:37,841
One of the objects Bethan
wants to show me dates back
499
00:24:37,842 --> 00:24:39,841
Thousands of years.
500
00:24:39,842 --> 00:24:41,601
Oh, wow.
501
00:24:41,602 --> 00:24:43,721
A Neolithic flint arrowhead
502
00:24:43,722 --> 00:24:45,481
From the first people
503
00:24:45,482 --> 00:24:47,441
Who populated Wakehurst.
504
00:24:47,442 --> 00:24:49,361
So when you say Neolithic,
505
00:24:49,362 --> 00:24:54,201
This flint arrowhead could be
up to about 12,000 years old?
506
00:24:54,202 --> 00:24:56,401
We think about 4,000 BC, this one.
507
00:24:56,402 --> 00:24:59,521
The land has been worked and
used in a variety of ways
508
00:24:59,522 --> 00:25:01,641
Over the centuries.
509
00:25:01,642 --> 00:25:05,401
So it's been a medieval landscape,
a place of industry.
510
00:25:05,402 --> 00:25:07,041
And then later on,
511
00:25:07,042 --> 00:25:09,281
When it stopped making
money for its inhabitants,
512
00:25:09,282 --> 00:25:13,361
It became basically an indulgence
Where people could show off plants
513
00:25:13,362 --> 00:25:15,241
From all around the globe.
514
00:25:15,242 --> 00:25:20,401
There wasn't actually a mansion here
Until 1590, when Edward Culpeper,
515
00:25:20,402 --> 00:25:23,521
A leading Sussex nobleman during
the reign of Elizabeth I,
516
00:25:23,522 --> 00:25:25,920
Had it built to showcase his wealth.
517
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:29,840
Next stop on this tour is the library.
518
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,321
Now, that's a fireplace, Bethan!
That's a serious fireplace!
519
00:25:35,322 --> 00:25:39,601
So what's the significance
of this carved sandstone,
520
00:25:39,602 --> 00:25:42,321
Is that right?
So the Culpeper family,
521
00:25:42,322 --> 00:25:45,361
They lived here for generations,
until 1694.
522
00:25:45,362 --> 00:25:49,441
But it was Edward Culpeper who
Probably did the most to the house.
523
00:25:49,442 --> 00:25:53,041
And he's remembered in this, well,
not just the fireplace,
524
00:25:53,042 --> 00:25:57,041
But in the cast iron fire drop backdrop
525
00:25:57,042 --> 00:26:00,561
Where actually it's his death
scene is commemorated there.
526
00:26:00,562 --> 00:26:04,121
Oh, cheery, yes! So there
he is on his deathbed.
527
00:26:04,122 --> 00:26:06,801
But would it originally have
been here in this room?
528
00:26:06,802 --> 00:26:09,121
I don't know if the
proportions seem quite right?
529
00:26:09,122 --> 00:26:11,641
A later custodian in the house,
Lady Downshire,
530
00:26:11,642 --> 00:26:15,961
She was sort of late 19th century,
She moved it from another room
531
00:26:15,962 --> 00:26:18,001
And thought it looked better in here.
532
00:26:18,002 --> 00:26:19,841
Fast forward to 1903,
533
00:26:19,842 --> 00:26:22,641
And Wakehurst was in the
hands of Gerald Loder,
534
00:26:22,642 --> 00:26:25,721
A keen horticulturalist
and plant collector
535
00:26:25,722 --> 00:26:29,281
Who transformed the gardens,
introducing species from around
536
00:26:29,282 --> 00:26:32,761
The world and laying the
foundations for the estate's role
537
00:26:32,762 --> 00:26:35,921
As a centre for botanical research.
538
00:26:35,922 --> 00:26:38,561
He also brought another unusual addition.
539
00:26:38,562 --> 00:26:41,881
The Wakehurst Place Fire Service!
540
00:26:41,882 --> 00:26:45,121
A kind of vintage fire engine,
Or antique, at least. Hand pulled.
541
00:26:45,122 --> 00:26:46,801
It was from Gerald Loder's era.
542
00:26:46,802 --> 00:26:49,521
He got so anxious about being
surrounded by all this wood
543
00:26:49,522 --> 00:26:52,441
And was really quite
obsessed with fire security,
544
00:26:52,442 --> 00:26:55,801
And had this whole team of firemen on site
545
00:26:55,802 --> 00:26:59,841
And the hand-drawn fire cart in 1934.
546
00:26:59,842 --> 00:27:02,201
Did it ever pay off,
having this Fire Service?
547
00:27:02,202 --> 00:27:04,321
I think he did have a lot of foresight
548
00:27:04,322 --> 00:27:06,841
Because there was a fire in the library,
up the chimney,
549
00:27:06,842 --> 00:27:11,041
And he hoiked out the burning
beam that had caught fire,
550
00:27:11,042 --> 00:27:15,161
And placed it up in the hallway
as a big sort of warning.
551
00:27:15,162 --> 00:27:19,361
Would it be a stretch to say
that that antique fire engine
552
00:27:19,362 --> 00:27:21,321
Sort of saved Wakehurst?
553
00:27:21,322 --> 00:27:23,161
We like to think so.
554
00:27:23,162 --> 00:27:26,161
Another object recently
discovered by the curators
555
00:27:26,162 --> 00:27:28,161
Was this Canadian shield.
556
00:27:28,162 --> 00:27:31,361
During the Second World War,
Wakehurst was requisitioned
557
00:27:31,362 --> 00:27:34,521
And became the headquarters
for the Canadian Army.
558
00:27:34,522 --> 00:27:36,521
Officers moved into the house,
559
00:27:36,522 --> 00:27:39,241
While the lower ranks
camped in the grounds.
560
00:27:39,242 --> 00:27:41,161
But unbeknown to them,
561
00:27:41,162 --> 00:27:44,920
Another secret operation was
taking place below ground.
562
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,481
While the Canadians were here,
right under their noses,
563
00:27:49,482 --> 00:27:52,681
We had a secret underground radio station
564
00:27:52,682 --> 00:27:56,161
Manned by nine women on
shifts around the clock.
565
00:27:56,162 --> 00:27:58,201
Right underground, in a tunnel,
566
00:27:58,202 --> 00:28:01,401
So that if the Germans did
ever arrive on our shores,
567
00:28:01,402 --> 00:28:02,881
They could send messages
568
00:28:02,882 --> 00:28:06,881
And intercept secret codes
and so on from the enemy.
569
00:28:06,882 --> 00:28:09,001
I mean, it's an amazing enough story,
570
00:28:09,002 --> 00:28:12,281
But to think that the Canadians
had absolutely no idea.
571
00:28:12,282 --> 00:28:14,481
Totally top secret.
Totally. And, in fact,
572
00:28:14,482 --> 00:28:16,361
There are a handful around the country
573
00:28:16,362 --> 00:28:19,001
Which we still don't know where they
Are because they're that secret.
574
00:28:19,002 --> 00:28:21,321
So only those that have
been stumbled across
575
00:28:21,322 --> 00:28:23,641
Are known about at all.
Oh, that's amazing.
576
00:28:23,642 --> 00:28:25,961
Just another layer of
history here at Wakehurst.
577
00:28:25,962 --> 00:28:28,201
Absolutely. Well, that's been wonderful.
578
00:28:28,202 --> 00:28:31,121
From prehistoric tools to wartime secrets.
579
00:28:31,122 --> 00:28:33,801
I was expecting none of it.
And I am so pleased
580
00:28:33,802 --> 00:28:36,121
I've learned everything from you,
Bethan. Thank you very much.
581
00:28:36,122 --> 00:28:37,681
It's been a pleasure.
582
00:28:37,682 --> 00:28:39,921
But it's time now for us
to uncover some secrets
583
00:28:39,922 --> 00:28:43,040
Of our own as we head to
Chichester for the auction...
584
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,881
Where I'm joining auctioneer Nick Hall.
585
00:28:48,882 --> 00:28:51,921
How are you? Really well, Tash.
And lovely to see you. Welcome.
586
00:28:51,922 --> 00:28:53,761
We'll start with the Reds, as always.
587
00:28:53,762 --> 00:28:55,961
Abby and Della.
And they decided, with Caroline,
588
00:28:55,962 --> 00:28:59,921
To start with a bit of jewellery, to be precise,
the ring.
589
00:28:59,922 --> 00:29:02,841
White metal. It was my
challenge to find an item
590
00:29:02,842 --> 00:29:05,681
Containing the colour red.
Look, it's very wearable.
591
00:29:05,682 --> 00:29:07,921
It's not expensive, but saleable.
592
00:29:07,922 --> 00:29:09,561
So what's your estimate for the ring?
593
00:29:09,562 --> 00:29:13,041
10 to 15. Well, £20 was paid. OK. Right.
594
00:29:13,042 --> 00:29:18,001
Fat Lava is next. So I must be
Talking about this pottery jug.
595
00:29:18,002 --> 00:29:21,401
I mean, it's that classic
1970s West German pottery.
596
00:29:21,402 --> 00:29:23,361
And, of course, the best bits
597
00:29:23,362 --> 00:29:25,761
Are the ones with that
sort of really thick,
598
00:29:25,762 --> 00:29:29,841
Gooey, bubbling glaze that looks
Like lava oozing down the vase.
599
00:29:29,842 --> 00:29:31,561
It's got hints of that.
600
00:29:31,562 --> 00:29:34,721
So this is sort of entry level
when it comes to that genre.
601
00:29:34,722 --> 00:29:37,201
What's your estimate therefore? 30 to 50.
602
00:29:37,202 --> 00:29:39,241
Well, do you know what, they only paid 30.
603
00:29:39,242 --> 00:29:42,321
Oh, good. Now, this must be the big spend,
therefore,
604
00:29:42,322 --> 00:29:45,321
I have the brooch from
the early 20th century.
605
00:29:45,322 --> 00:29:48,561
It's subtle, but it's gold.
Again, gold shines.
606
00:29:48,562 --> 00:29:52,561
Gold shines. Will it shine among
The other jewellery in the sale,
607
00:29:52,562 --> 00:29:55,521
Though? I'm hoping so.
We put 40 to 60 on this one, Tash.
608
00:29:55,522 --> 00:29:57,561
OK, well, as you know, it's the big spend.
609
00:29:57,562 --> 00:30:00,361
And it was, you know,
on the cusp. £75 paid.
610
00:30:00,362 --> 00:30:02,281
So it's there or thereabouts.
611
00:30:02,282 --> 00:30:04,681
If gold prices still keep going
Up and up, we could get there.
612
00:30:04,682 --> 00:30:07,801
So that's the Reds. Now to our Blues.
613
00:30:07,802 --> 00:30:10,121
Sonal and Ruhi are father and daughter.
614
00:30:10,122 --> 00:30:13,161
That special bond. Nice.
And they welcomed Thomas Forrester
615
00:30:13,162 --> 00:30:14,601
Into the family.
616
00:30:14,602 --> 00:30:18,361
And their first item, they decided
To go for that mustard pot.
617
00:30:18,362 --> 00:30:22,401
My challenge was find something containing blue,
this time,
618
00:30:22,402 --> 00:30:25,521
And blue glass, you can't go wrong,
Can you? It's a smart thing.
619
00:30:25,522 --> 00:30:28,161
It's that lovely colour blue, silver mounts.
Got the spoon
620
00:30:28,162 --> 00:30:30,961
With it. So there's mustard
pot collectors out there.
621
00:30:30,962 --> 00:30:33,121
So what's your estimate? Not too hot.
622
00:30:33,122 --> 00:30:38,081
A mild mustard! 30 to 50. Hey!
They paid an even milder 25.
623
00:30:38,082 --> 00:30:41,201
Amazing. Now we're on to what I imagine
624
00:30:41,202 --> 00:30:44,481
You already predicted to be the big spend.
Yes, good thing.
625
00:30:44,482 --> 00:30:47,801
The Asprey... Yeah. Glass
and silver hip flask.
626
00:30:47,802 --> 00:30:50,401
Of course, the magic name,
and the quality as well,
627
00:30:50,402 --> 00:30:53,361
The condition. Wonderful
thing. 100 to 150.
628
00:30:53,362 --> 00:30:55,881
195.
With that magic name, Tash,
629
00:30:55,882 --> 00:30:59,121
Anything could happen.
Let's move on to their final item,
630
00:30:59,122 --> 00:31:02,321
Which is the cigar piercer, the borer.
631
00:31:02,322 --> 00:31:05,801
They're sticking with silver.
It seems to be the theme.
632
00:31:05,802 --> 00:31:10,241
It's a smart thing. Oddly enough,
In our fine wine and spirit sales,
633
00:31:10,242 --> 00:31:12,921
We sell cigars, and they
make a lot of money.
634
00:31:12,922 --> 00:31:16,561
So I'm assuming, I'm hoping
for a nice silver cigar cutter
635
00:31:16,562 --> 00:31:19,441
Like this, there should be buyers galore.
Probably online.
636
00:31:19,442 --> 00:31:23,001
OK, well, what's your estimate,
in that case?
637
00:31:23,002 --> 00:31:25,401
Well, I hope it doesn't
go up in smoke for them,
638
00:31:25,402 --> 00:31:27,121
But we've put 30 to 50 on it.
639
00:31:27,122 --> 00:31:31,881
69 was paid. OK. Just a puff away! OK.
640
00:31:31,882 --> 00:31:35,401
Yeah. It's kind of the
battle of the luxury items.
641
00:31:35,402 --> 00:31:38,321
The odd one out, Fat Lava! Yeah.
Money is definitely
642
00:31:38,322 --> 00:31:40,481
Going on the Blues.
643
00:31:40,482 --> 00:31:42,321
OK. Quality all the way, Tash.
644
00:31:42,322 --> 00:31:45,241
So who will win today's family showdown?
645
00:31:45,242 --> 00:31:49,441
Up first, our father and daughter,
Sonal and Ruhi.
646
00:31:49,442 --> 00:31:53,881
Ruhi, Sonal, Thomas. You're here,
You're ready. You're looking very...
647
00:31:53,882 --> 00:31:57,201
Body language is very confident.
Yeah. We are pretty confident.
648
00:31:57,202 --> 00:31:59,801
Oh, you should be. You
bought beautiful items.
649
00:31:59,802 --> 00:32:02,681
You were not shy of spending money,
which is good.
650
00:32:02,682 --> 00:32:04,721
But we are starting with
your cheapest item.
651
00:32:04,722 --> 00:32:07,801
Your challenge item in the
form of this mustard pot.
652
00:32:07,802 --> 00:32:11,601
You found a spoon. You paid £25.
Good luck.
653
00:32:11,602 --> 00:32:15,921
{\an8}I've got interest
starting with me at £20.
654
00:32:15,922 --> 00:32:19,241
{\an8}22 I'm bid, 25. 30. Profit! Profit!
655
00:32:19,242 --> 00:32:21,801
{\an8}Hello, hello! We got a profit!
656
00:32:21,802 --> 00:32:24,641
{\an8}32 is online. Are
you bidding upstairs?
657
00:32:24,642 --> 00:32:26,481
{\an8}It's £32 online.
658
00:32:26,482 --> 00:32:28,961
{\an8}Rather lovely little
Edwardian silver mounted
659
00:32:28,962 --> 00:32:33,481
{\an8}blue glass mustard
pot hallmarked for 1901.
660
00:32:33,482 --> 00:32:38,001
{\an8}Any advance? Online
and selling for £32.
661
00:32:38,002 --> 00:32:42,201
{\an8}Yes! Yay! £32. My goodness,
that's a £7 profit.
662
00:32:42,202 --> 00:32:45,441
{\an8}And that's how you start
your Bargain Hunt experience!
663
00:32:45,442 --> 00:32:47,761
Absolutely.
As we move into the big spend,
664
00:32:47,762 --> 00:32:50,321
You bought Asprey, you bought a hip flask.
665
00:32:50,322 --> 00:32:53,441
You spent 195 on the hip flask.
Here it comes.
666
00:32:53,442 --> 00:32:56,601
{\an8}Who's got 75 to start me, surely?
667
00:32:56,602 --> 00:32:59,841
{\an8}Asprey. Solid silver, cut glass.
668
00:32:59,842 --> 00:33:02,961
{\an8}Start me at 60, surely.
Come on, internet.
669
00:33:02,962 --> 00:33:07,681
{\an8}60 I'm bid online. 65 online. 70, 75 now.
Come on!
670
00:33:07,682 --> 00:33:10,921
{\an8}Come on! What's happening?
It is going on now. Keep going.
671
00:33:10,922 --> 00:33:14,721
{\an8}80 I've got now. 85 is bid.
Asprey, solid silver.
672
00:33:14,722 --> 00:33:15,881
{\an8}Wonderful thing.
673
00:33:15,882 --> 00:33:17,281
{\an8}Quality through and through.
674
00:33:17,282 --> 00:33:20,201
{\an8}90 I'm offered. Keep going. 95.
Come on.
675
00:33:20,202 --> 00:33:23,481
Who's got 100? Surely? The bid's at £95.
676
00:33:23,482 --> 00:33:25,921
{\an8}Room's gone quiet.
I don't believe it.
677
00:33:25,922 --> 00:33:29,001
{\an8}Last chance. Hammer's up. 95,
I'm selling.
678
00:33:29,002 --> 00:33:30,241
{\an8}I'm shocked. No!
679
00:33:30,242 --> 00:33:31,561
{\an8}Sold.
680
00:33:31,562 --> 00:33:33,921
Oh, my gosh.
681
00:33:33,922 --> 00:33:35,961
{\an8}So that's a loss of £100.
682
00:33:35,962 --> 00:33:38,641
{\an8}You were plus seven.
You're minus 93.
683
00:33:38,642 --> 00:33:42,521
We are going to move swiftly
into the final item.
684
00:33:42,522 --> 00:33:45,441
Cigar piercer at £69.
685
00:33:45,442 --> 00:33:48,801
I really hope we have that
experience of profit again.
686
00:33:48,802 --> 00:33:52,681
{\an8}Fine bit of silver.
17 is bid. Come on, keep going now.
687
00:33:52,682 --> 00:33:55,081
{\an8}Let's build. Who's got 20 for it?
688
00:33:55,082 --> 00:33:58,401
{\an8}- £20 up in the gallery.
Come on, will it on! Come on!
689
00:33:58,402 --> 00:34:01,361
{\an8}Looking for 22, surely.
All that silver.
690
00:34:01,362 --> 00:34:04,281
{\an8}All that history.
It's £20 up in the gallery.
691
00:34:04,282 --> 00:34:09,841
{\an8}Any advance? At 20 I sell,
fair warning at £20.
692
00:34:09,842 --> 00:34:13,241
{\an8}So £20 hammer is a £49 loss.
693
00:34:13,242 --> 00:34:16,721
{\an8}Ah! And now you're minus 142.
694
00:34:16,722 --> 00:34:21,081
Wow. There is still hope,
because you left Thomas £11. Yes.
695
00:34:21,082 --> 00:34:25,081
Oh, yes. So, Blues, close your eyes,
And it's almost time to reveal
696
00:34:25,082 --> 00:34:28,041
Thomas's bonus buy. You grab it, Thomas.
697
00:34:28,042 --> 00:34:32,321
So please keep your eyes closed.
Over to Thomas.
698
00:34:32,322 --> 00:34:34,961
OK, you can open your eyes.
I bought,
699
00:34:34,962 --> 00:34:37,961
I stuck with the silver thing.
Interesting.
700
00:34:37,962 --> 00:34:41,041
I got a lovely Victorian butter knife.
Yes?
701
00:34:41,042 --> 00:34:43,681
So it's got some marks here.
702
00:34:43,682 --> 00:34:46,681
It's got a mother of pearl handle.
And more importantly
703
00:34:46,682 --> 00:34:49,561
It's got that beautiful
bit of bright cut there.
704
00:34:49,562 --> 00:34:51,801
I think it's rather nice. It's lovely.
705
00:34:51,802 --> 00:34:53,561
How much did you pay for it? £11.
706
00:34:53,562 --> 00:34:56,401
How much do you think that'll make,
Thomas? It's got to be £15.
707
00:34:56,402 --> 00:34:59,041
What do you think? Yes
or no to the bonus buy?
708
00:34:59,042 --> 00:35:00,801
Yes. Yes. Definitely. Go with it.
709
00:35:00,802 --> 00:35:03,241
So the Blues are going to
go with the bonus buy.
710
00:35:03,242 --> 00:35:05,840
Let's hear Nick Hall's
very important thoughts.
711
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,761
They're normally in a big job lot,
something like this.
712
00:35:09,762 --> 00:35:12,361
But with the mother of pearl
handle it does stand out a bit.
713
00:35:12,362 --> 00:35:14,721
So, estimate, please. 10-15.
714
00:35:14,722 --> 00:35:16,440
11 paid. Brilliant.
715
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:22,161
Nick thinks it can happen.
He says £10 to £15.
716
00:35:22,162 --> 00:35:25,641
OK. Let's hope for a profit.
Here comes Thomas'bonus.
717
00:35:25,642 --> 00:35:27,801
{\an8}Nice little lot, this.
I got bids online.
718
00:35:27,802 --> 00:35:31,761
{\an8}Straight in at 5, 7, 10.
Who's got 12 anywhere, surely?
719
00:35:31,762 --> 00:35:34,681
{\an8}The bid's online at 10.
Come on, people, where are you?
720
00:35:34,682 --> 00:35:36,721
{\an8}Come on. Come on. Come on, surely.
721
00:35:36,722 --> 00:35:38,201
{\an8}Silver and mother of pearl.
722
00:35:38,202 --> 00:35:39,761
{\an8}Lovely little fruit knife.
723
00:35:39,762 --> 00:35:41,561
{\an8}Come on. £10 the bid.
724
00:35:41,562 --> 00:35:45,001

Oh, £1 profit!

00:35:45,002 --> 00:35:46,160
{\an8}Try 14.
726
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,961
{\an8}Any further bid? No? We're going.
727
00:35:49,962 --> 00:35:52,960
{\an8}We're going. At £12 I sell.
728
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:58,081
{\an8}OK! Yes, £1 profit.
£12 is £1 profit.
729
00:35:58,082 --> 00:35:59,961
{\an8}Yes. Thank you very much, Thomas.
730
00:35:59,962 --> 00:36:03,601
Thank you. You have turned 142
with a minus in front of it
731
00:36:03,602 --> 00:36:06,961
Into 141 with a minus in front of it.
732
00:36:06,962 --> 00:36:10,481
And that is a significant improvement.
Yes.
733
00:36:10,482 --> 00:36:12,881
By £1. Well done.
I mean, the thing is, Blues,
734
00:36:12,882 --> 00:36:15,081
As you well know that could
be today's winning score.
735
00:36:15,082 --> 00:36:18,681
So, don't lose hope. There still is
Plenty of it, isn't there?
736
00:36:18,682 --> 00:36:21,841
Absolutely. 100%. Well done.
737
00:36:21,842 --> 00:36:24,161
So, Sonal and daughter Ruhi
738
00:36:24,162 --> 00:36:27,761
Leave the auction down £141.
739
00:36:27,762 --> 00:36:30,321
Can Abby and her aunt Della do any better?
740
00:36:30,322 --> 00:36:33,241
Abby, Della, Caroline,
741
00:36:33,242 --> 00:36:36,361
Here we are, all present and correct.
All terrified, right?
742
00:36:36,362 --> 00:36:38,961
Yes. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely petrified.
743
00:36:38,962 --> 00:36:40,521
But it's going to be fine.
744
00:36:40,522 --> 00:36:42,801
You bought items you love and
you hardly spent any money.
745
00:36:42,802 --> 00:36:44,121
I know!
746
00:36:44,122 --> 00:36:47,001
Your first item is going

It's your challenge item.

00:36:49,722 --> 00:36:53,441
It's a lovely ring. And you paid £20.
Here it comes.

00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:22,801
{\an8}Sold.

{\an8}Brilliant. Well done.
Listen, on Bargain Hunt,

00:37:26,562 --> 00:37:28,681
{\an8}a £2 profit is that exciting.

{\an8}And we are chuffed for you.
764
00:37:30,722 --> 00:37:32,361
Did you like the feel of that? Yes. Yes.
765
00:37:32,362 --> 00:37:34,641
I'm very pleased. I
could get used to that.

Yeah, now this Fat Lava jug-cum-vase.

00:37:37,842 --> 00:37:41,401
Come on, big profit for big vase, surely?
Surely.

00:37:41,402 --> 00:37:43,881
You spent £30 and this is it.

{\an8}It's £20. Any advance?

00:38:09,362 --> 00:38:11,521
{\an8}It's gone quiet. Oh, no.
The hammer's poised.
781
00:38:11,522 --> 00:38:14,081
{\an8}At £20 I sell.
782
00:38:14,082 --> 00:38:19,961
{\an8}Oh, £20. Oh! Oh, no,
£20 hammer means a £10 loss.
783
00:38:19,962 --> 00:38:22,721
So you're minus eight, ladies. Oh.
784
00:38:22,722 --> 00:38:24,361
Big spend. Not too bad. Big spend, yes.
785
00:38:24,362 --> 00:38:27,921
That's right, Abby, big spend is
Up next. It's the gem-set brooch.

That's auctions.
801
00:39:03,922 --> 00:39:06,441
{\an8}That's a loss of 45.
802
00:39:06,442 --> 00:39:09,361
So minus 53, Reds. Oh, no!
803
00:39:09,362 --> 00:39:11,761
But remember, there is a fourth lot.

Yes, there is. There is a bonus buy.
805

Buy, so keep your eyes closed.
808
00:39:23,002 --> 00:39:25,601

Do you like? Yes, that's lovely. Oh, yes.
811
00:39:30,242 --> 00:39:34,361
It's beautiful. Is it silver?
It is silver.
812
00:39:34,362 --> 00:39:38,601
It's fully hallmarked for 1909.
813
00:39:38,602 --> 00:39:41,961
So it's a lovely little piece of silver.
814
00:39:41,962 --> 00:39:44,441
I know you wanted silver, didn't you?
We did, yeah.
815
00:39:44,442 --> 00:39:46,841
How much did you pay for it? £10.
816
00:39:46,842 --> 00:39:50,561
Right, OK. And how much do you think
It would make on a good day?
817
00:39:50,562 --> 00:39:53,361
On a good day, I think it should get 20.
818
00:39:53,362 --> 00:39:55,761
OK. Reds, are you going
with the bonus buy?
819
00:39:55,762 --> 00:39:59,321
Yes. Yes. So the Reds are going
With the bonus buy. Nothing to lose.
820
00:39:59,322 --> 00:40:02,081
But what does Nick Hall think?
821
00:40:02,082 --> 00:40:04,401
Now this brooch might be by William Light
822
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:07,121
But it's not light on style, is it?
It's not indeed.
823
00:40:07,122 --> 00:40:08,881
And it could be lucky with the horseshoe.
824
00:40:08,882 --> 00:40:11,321
Yes. No, we're hoping they will be.
So, what's your estimate?
825
00:40:11,322 --> 00:40:12,801
15 to 25.
826
00:40:12,802 --> 00:40:16,280
Lucky £10 was only paid. What a good buy.
827
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,401
So £10 was paid by
Caroline for the brooch.
828
00:40:20,402 --> 00:40:23,841
Well, Nick thinks 15 to 25. OK.
Here it comes.
829
00:40:23,842 --> 00:40:26,361
{\an8}Straight in, surely, come on,
Who's got £20 for it, anyone?
830
00:40:26,362 --> 00:40:28,321
{\an8}Who's got 20? Bid me 20 now.
831
00:40:28,322 --> 00:40:29,921
{\an8}It's not dear at 20.
832
00:40:29,922 --> 00:40:32,681
{\an8}There should be hands everywhere.
Who's got £20?
833
00:40:32,682 --> 00:40:35,201
{\an8}Come on! Try 15.
834
00:40:35,202 --> 00:40:38,561
{\an8}Come on, bid me 15, anywhere at 15,
do I hear?
835
00:40:38,562 --> 00:40:40,041
{\an8}£10.
836
00:40:40,042 --> 00:40:43,521
{\an8}It's silver. Antique silver for £10.
837
00:40:43,522 --> 00:40:45,401
{\an8}£10 is bid online.
838
00:40:45,402 --> 00:40:46,801
{\an8}Who's got 12 for it?
839
00:40:46,802 --> 00:40:48,161
{\an8}12 is online.
840
00:40:48,162 --> 00:40:51,521
{\an8}Yes! Yay, well done!
841
00:40:51,522 --> 00:40:53,761
{\an8}Who's got 15, anywhere?
842
00:40:53,762 --> 00:40:56,361
{\an8}Are we there? Are we done?
The hammer's up.
843
00:40:56,362 --> 00:40:58,440
{\an8}At £12, I'm going to sell it.
844
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:03,601
{\an8}Ladies, we started with a £2 profit
And we end with a £2 profit.
845
00:41:03,602 --> 00:41:05,161
{\an8}Caroline, Well done.
846
00:41:05,162 --> 00:41:07,761
Mins 53 becomes minus 51.
847
00:41:07,762 --> 00:41:08,921
That can be a winning score.
848
00:41:08,922 --> 00:41:12,481
Oh! You never know. So... Yes, look
At that frown turned upside down.
849
00:41:12,482 --> 00:41:14,721
I like it, Della, yes.
850
00:41:14,722 --> 00:41:17,441
It's a loss of £51 for Abby and Della.
851
00:41:17,442 --> 00:41:19,561
Time to reveal the results to the teams.
852
00:41:19,562 --> 00:41:22,681
It's easy to tease you experts
from where I'm standing,
853
00:41:22,682 --> 00:41:24,161
But I'm going to do it anyway.
854
00:41:24,162 --> 00:41:26,841
Thomas, you added £1 to
the running total today.
855
00:41:26,842 --> 00:41:29,001
Caroline, £2. So...
856
00:41:29,002 --> 00:41:31,401
Does that mean Caroline's twice as good as you,
Thomas?
857
00:41:31,402 --> 00:41:33,441
Absolutely. Without question.
858
00:41:33,442 --> 00:41:36,081
OK. You heard it here first.
859
00:41:36,082 --> 00:41:39,681
Now, the results are in and
no-one is taking home any money.
860
00:41:39,682 --> 00:41:42,601
And the losses today -
whoo! - they're big.
861
00:41:42,602 --> 00:41:45,121
So each team has no idea who's won.
862
00:41:45,122 --> 00:41:48,321
You're thinking, 'Well,
it can't have been us,'
863
00:41:48,322 --> 00:41:50,041
But it was you...
864
00:41:50,042 --> 00:41:51,641
Reds.
865
00:41:51,642 --> 00:41:53,961
Can't believe it!
LAUGHTER
866
00:41:53,962 --> 00:41:56,161
Did you see that reaction?
867
00:41:56,162 --> 00:41:57,961
Not a chance.
868
00:41:57,962 --> 00:41:59,801
LAUGHTER
869
00:41:59,802 --> 00:42:02,161
I knew they would never know.
870
00:42:02,162 --> 00:42:04,001
Oh! Can't believe it.
871
00:42:04,002 --> 00:42:05,921
You did it! Well done.
872
00:42:05,922 --> 00:42:08,001
And if you think that you lost money,
873
00:42:08,002 --> 00:42:09,921
Wait till you hear how
much the Blues lost.
874
00:42:09,922 --> 00:42:12,761
Well, they lost a chunk of change,
minus 141.
875
00:42:12,762 --> 00:42:15,121
But we're not going to
talk about it for too long
876
00:42:15,122 --> 00:42:17,121
Because we're here to focus on family,
877
00:42:17,122 --> 00:42:20,121
We're here to focus on the
fun that you had at the fair.
878
00:42:20,122 --> 00:42:23,481
And I have to say, if I
went shopping with my dad,
879
00:42:23,482 --> 00:42:26,041
We'd lose much more than that. Trust me.
880
00:42:26,042 --> 00:42:29,361
So, I mean, is there anything
that you regret deeply,
881
00:42:29,362 --> 00:42:32,001
Or do you just think,'No...'?
No, it was a great day out.
882
00:42:32,002 --> 00:42:37,241
And any time I spend with my
Gorgeous daughter is, you know...
883
00:42:37,242 --> 00:42:39,401
You can't put a price on that, Blues.
884
00:42:39,402 --> 00:42:42,041
But I can put a price on your loss, Reds.
885
00:42:42,042 --> 00:42:44,601
Minus 51 is the winning result.
886
00:42:44,602 --> 00:42:47,961
I mean, truly, your faces.
887
00:42:47,962 --> 00:42:52,041
You were not expecting that. No.
No, it's so good.
888
00:42:52,042 --> 00:42:54,241
Is your family going
to be immensely proud?
889
00:42:54,242 --> 00:42:56,401
Yes. And we've had so much fun today.
890
00:42:56,402 --> 00:42:58,521
Honestly, it's been...
It's been brilliant.
891
00:42:58,522 --> 00:43:00,401
Did we pair you with the perfect expert?
892
00:43:00,402 --> 00:43:03,281
Oh! Caroline was amazing. She was amazing, Caroline.
Yes.
893
00:43:03,282 --> 00:43:05,121
Oh! Well, you've been amazing.
894
00:43:05,122 --> 00:43:07,761
Very patient. Yes. Yes.
895
00:43:07,762 --> 00:43:10,801
You brought that Welsh
energy and it paid off.
896
00:43:10,802 --> 00:43:12,601
Listen, Bargain hunt is brilliant.
897
00:43:12,602 --> 00:43:14,641
