FunTranscript
00:00Behind the wheel of a classic car, oh yeah, and a girl to scar Britain for antiques.
00:05Looking for some bargains?
00:06The aim? To make the biggest profit at auction.
00:09But it's no mean feat. There'll be worthy winners.
00:13Yes! It is my lucky day.
00:14And valiant losers.
00:16I actually can't believe that.
00:16It is ridiculous.
00:17Will it be the high road to glory?
00:19Yo, yo, yo.
00:20Or the slow road to disaster?
00:24This is Antiques Road Trip.
00:29Yeah.
00:30Yeah.
00:32Let's go, Lincolnshire.
00:36You may be smart.
00:38And what gear are you in?
00:40I think I'm in second.
00:41You're in four.
00:42No, I'm not in four.
00:44Welcome to the Hanson School of Motoring.
00:47Foot down.
00:48Right, put your clutch down again.
00:51Now go.
00:52That's two.
00:54Thank you, Charlie.
00:55Mirror signal manoeuvre room.
00:57If I do that, it means it won't actually stop, OK?
01:01Emergency stop, right.
01:02That's what it is.
01:02OK.
01:03But I haven't went from second into third yet.
01:05Do you think?
01:06Let's try third now.
01:07Put on the clutch.
01:08He's not your typical instructor.
01:11Woo!
01:12Charles, have you got a sweat on yet?
01:13I've got a sweat on, yeah.
01:14I think I've almost, I might as good to do it in a minute as well.
01:18Christopher Columbus.
01:21It's the second leg.
01:23And behind the wheel of this 1971 VW camper van is the super snazzy dealer Rue Irving.
01:29And audacious auctioneer, Charles Hanson.
01:33What can I say?
01:35I'm glad I've got you by my side, because you're kind of like my wingman.
01:39Scottish dealer Rue is the gal with sparkle and colour that loves all things Au Nouveau
01:45and has a serious penchant for glassware.
01:49And big hats.
01:50If I was a style, I'd like to think I was Art Nouveau.
01:53Charles is the Georgian dandy of the road trip family.
01:56From the shy, early days as a young metal detectorist to a flamboyant auctioneer,
02:02Charles is a walking encyclopedia of antiques.
02:05That's history.
02:06I can't believe it.
02:07Armed with a daily budget of up to £400 each,
02:11whoever wins most auctions out of five is the road trip champ.
02:15Swing.
02:16Swing, baby.
02:16Swing, baby.
02:17With one auction win in the bag, it's 1-0 to Rue.
02:23I've got you a Lincolnshire loaf.
02:25It's like cake.
02:27It's called plum loaf.
02:29Eyes on the road.
02:30Eyes on the road.
02:30I'll feed you up on a morning off.
02:33Careful.
02:34Nice.
02:35Give her a chance, Carlos.
02:37Blimey.
02:39Okay, I lost it.
02:40That was a delicacy.
02:41Where's it gone?
02:42Sorry, let's go.
02:43Blimey, don't worry.
02:44It's okay.
02:45I've got another one.
02:47Don't distract the driver, Carlos.
02:50This tour began in South Yorkshire.
02:52We'll take a run around Lincolnshire,
02:55frolic around the West Midlands
02:56with a big auction showdown in Bristol.
03:00Actually, you're my little Lincoln imp.
03:02Excuse me?
03:03If I'm an imp,
03:04you can be a Lincolnshire sausage.
03:08Charming.
03:11Our two jumpsters are in Lincolnshire,
03:13concluding shopping in Grantham.
03:16First stop,
03:17the village of Hemswell Cliff.
03:19There are so many buildings here, Ruth.
03:25I know.
03:25I think this one's got our name on it.
03:27This one says number one.
03:29Oh, you're running, are you?
03:30Yeah, come on.
03:30I'm going to get a tea and coffee.
03:33Oh, I just about got you.
03:36Once part of RAF Hemswell,
03:38this was the home of the Lancaster bomber
03:40during World War II.
03:42It's chocks away
03:44as we explore this super swish establishment.
03:49Now this, I love colour.
03:52As you can tell,
03:53and I'm always drawn to glass and colour,
03:56and the first thing I see when I look at this...
03:58Ooh, don't break anything.
04:00Look at that.
04:02The way the different glass strands
04:05have fused together
04:06to create that beautiful,
04:08almost stick-of-rock type effect.
04:10It's actually making my mouth water.
04:13What's unusual about this bowl,
04:15if you have a look,
04:16the room is a little bit like
04:18a Scottish mountainous landscape
04:20with that skyline.
04:24And I think it is Murano,
04:25but without any markings,
04:27it's hard to know 100%.
04:28I think it's got charm.
04:30During the Middle Ages,
04:32glassmaking contributed to the power and wealth
04:34of the Venetian Republic.
04:37This is priced at 75 smackers.
04:39Looks like a hot contender.
04:42Now, where's Charles?
04:45Just look at it.
04:46It's hello, all ages.
04:48Hello, all centuries.
04:50Hello, Hanson.
04:51Let's make a memory.
04:52Now, let's see what Hanson finds to buy
04:55with his £400 kitty.
04:57What I've just seen literally lurking
05:01on this small table
05:04is a rather unassuming tureen,
05:07but it's a handsome tureen.
05:09It's in blue and white,
05:10and blue and white porcelain
05:12is synonymous with, I suppose, China.
05:14I reckon this tureen and cover
05:16would probably date
05:18to around 1760.
05:21And I reckon years ago,
05:24back in the 18th century,
05:26it would have been a meat tureen.
05:27And look at that gorgeous pattern,
05:29what we call the willow pattern.
05:31And this is wonderful.
05:33He's quite a nice-marised look.
05:36Ticket price is £105.
05:37A slight issue.
05:39There would have been handles here.
05:41Can you see?
05:42There's holes here
05:43where there would have been
05:44some lug handles
05:46and also some handles here as well.
05:50So rather than me hold it like that,
05:52there would have been handles like that.
05:56And those handles, over the years,
05:59have fallen off.
06:01Does it bother me?
06:02Yes, a bit now.
06:03I'm a bit concerned about this.
06:05But I still love it
06:06for what it represents in the world
06:08a real dining history
06:10and a wonderfully big Chinese object.
06:14It's certainly a whopper.
06:16Now, let's find a roux.
06:18I love these.
06:20Look at the powerless beasts.
06:22You always have to check the canines, right?
06:24Uh-oh.
06:24Might be tempted.
06:28I'm on the prowl.
06:29Oh, dear.
06:29Literally.
06:30There's another lion in the jungle.
06:32The most ferocious lion of all.
06:35They're amazing, aren't they?
06:36They are gorgeous.
06:37How much are they?
06:39To you, £5,900.
06:41Are you a cat man or a dog man?
06:42Dogs.
06:43Oh, in that way...
06:43I'm going to find my canine friends.
06:45In that case, jog on.
06:47Jog on.
06:47Say fetch.
06:48Fetch.
06:48While Fido has a run-around, let's continue with Rue.
06:57What you've got there?
06:58Is it a trinket box?
06:59Is it a pill box?
07:00It's a patch box.
07:02And that probably is about 300 years old.
07:06And do you know what this box signifies?
07:09Impossible beauty standards.
07:10So you've seen them in all the movies.
07:12Tiny little black beauty spots on the skin, the chin,
07:16while they've got a fan and the lovely big wigs.
07:19That's what patches were.
07:20And if you were wealthy, they were made of silk or taffeta.
07:24But if you were poor, you made them out of mouse skin.
07:27So can you imagine putting that on your cheek?
07:29During the late Renaissance, the use of lead-based cosmetics
07:34and diseases like smallpox meant the dainty little patch
07:38became a tantalising beauty cover-up.
07:41So these are made of enamel.
07:43The mirror is in lovely condition, a slight little chip there,
07:47but you expect that, being over 250 years old.
07:50Now, the price, £130, which is about right.
07:56That's sort of retail, but if I could get that for double figures,
08:02I think that would be a lovely piece of history.
08:04It's an auction.
08:06What of our old pal Chazza?
08:11Worse than a five-year-old.
08:16Hello to an actual outfit that I think stood tall
08:20and walked tall in the Victorian times.
08:24I love this, because I think the nearest we get to,
08:26handling history and people is either coinage or costume.
08:32A Victorian two-piece outfit.
08:34This was worn in the 1860s.
08:37You just imagine, sort of, you know...
08:38You know, almost...
08:41Almost, you know...
08:42Here we go.
08:44Almost have a dance, you know, with a lady of the 1860s
08:48and just imagine the emotion and almost going back in time.
08:55Of course, she's a very tall lady.
08:57The market for fashion, the market for fashion from now to back then
09:02is always popular amongst collectors.
09:04And I think for £145, it's definitely worth a go.
09:11And I might, and I will.
09:12Oh, he's quite a nifty dancer, look.
09:18Along with the large 18th-century Chinese porcelain turin,
09:21we have a total of £250.
09:24Standby, dealer Robert.
09:26If I ever bought the two together...
09:28Best I can do would be £225.
09:30£225, that's great.
09:31Brilliant. Excellent.
09:32Good to see you again.
09:33And you.
09:33So I owe you some cash, and there, my friend, is £225.
09:38Brilliant.
09:38Keep up the amazing workout industry.
09:40Thanks very much. Great.
09:41Until next time. Cheers.
09:41Cheers, Robert. See you later.
09:43Bye. Bye. Bye.
09:43That breaks down to £95 for the turin
09:47and £130 for the Victorian two-piece dress.
09:51While old Twinkled Toes shows off his best foxtrot,
09:55he now has £175.
09:57Let's check in with sunshine-yellow Rue.
10:02I love morning jewellery,
10:04and here are two pieces side by side.
10:09So morning jewellery has been around since the 1600s
10:12as a reminder to live a pure life,
10:14a reminder of your own mortality,
10:15but it really became popular in the Victorian era.
10:19The colour of your hat is really striking, Rue.
10:23Oh, yes, the brooches.
10:24This is the most delightful compare and contrast
10:27The one that's really calling to me most
10:30because of the price tag is this one,
10:33£39, 19th-century enamelled morning brooch.
10:37So I would say this is probably early 1800s,
10:40so late Georgian era,
10:41but that is a work of art.
10:44But the price tag on that is £595.
10:47£39?
10:49It's a bit of a no-brainer.
10:51My heart will remain with this,
10:53but my head will buy this.
10:55Along with the morning brooch,
10:58Rue also has the Murano bowl
11:00and the 18th-century patch box,
11:02totalling £244.
11:05Stand by, Paul.
11:06So if I was to take all three,
11:08could you squeeze it down to £210?
11:10Oh, you're cheeky.
11:13Go on, as it's you.
11:14Oh, thank you.
11:15You sure?
11:15I'm sure.
11:16Brilliant.
11:17Dandiel, £210.
11:18Thank you so much.
11:20£10.
11:21Many thanks, Paul.
11:22That breaks down to 57 for the Murano bowl,
11:25117 for the 18th-century patch box,
11:28and 36 for the Georgian morning brooch.
11:32Rue now has £190.
11:35Meanwhile, let's find Hanson.
11:38He's ventured to the once-medieval stronghold of Lincoln.
11:42Long ago, in the realm of Britain,
11:46a landmark moment opened the country's lush countryside to the people.
11:53Today, more than a million hectares is common land
11:57for us all to roam freely.
11:59This game-changing decree is stored in a highly secure vault
12:02here at Lincoln Castle.
12:05Charles is meeting Joe Porter
12:06to hear about the Charter of the Forest,
12:08a document that would change the country's social and political landscape forever.
12:15So, Charter of the Forest, what exactly was that, is that?
12:19Well, it's a charter which was created by King Henry III in 1217,
12:25and it was part, or an extension, if you like,
12:27of King John's Magna Carta, which was created in 1215.
12:32From the 11th century,
12:33the Normans introduced designated hunting areas
12:37known as Royal Forests for the monarchy and aristocrats.
12:41It was essentially their playground,
12:44so they had exclusive access to hunting in that area,
12:49which meant that they could hunt for mainly deer,
12:52but any other kind of game birds that were there,
12:54because by John's reign,
12:56a third of England was likely to have been Royal Forest,
12:59and only the king was allowed to hunt in those lands.
13:03Any commoner found in a designated Royal Forest
13:06would face cruel consequences.
13:09It was considered trespassing if you were on their land,
13:13so if you damaged or destroyed any of the woodland,
13:17which was in this time period called the ver,
13:19or if you helped yourself to venison the king's deer,
13:23and these were things that you could be mutilated for at best,
13:27executed at worst.
13:29In 1215, King John and the barons' fractious relations
13:33came to a head, resulting in the Magna Carta.
13:37Once it's sealed by John in 1215,
13:41the following year, in the midst of civil war,
13:44King John dies,
13:45leaving his nine-year-old son, King Henry III,
13:48as King of England.
13:50As a nine-year-old, he had to have someone as his guardian,
13:54and that gentleman was William Marshall,
13:56and he plays a really important role, we think,
13:58in the creation of the Charter of the Forest.
14:01As advisor to the boy king,
14:04legendary and honourable knight William
14:06wanted to regain the favour of the people.
14:10They now had a groundbreaking document
14:12permitting hunting and grazing.
14:14The Charter of the Forest was really important,
14:17so what it was doing,
14:18it was taking clauses from Magna Carta that existed,
14:21and making them more specific,
14:23and this would benefit, eventually,
14:26normal people like you and me,
14:28as it meant that they would no longer be executed,
14:31for example, for being on forest land.
14:34One of only two copies surviving in the whole world,
14:38this 800-year-old incredible piece of English history
14:41rests here for all to see.
14:44Wow.
14:44The Charter of the Forest really defined history,
14:48and within this amazing building I'm in,
14:51it just feels so secure, so real,
14:54and it's really such rich history
14:56that defined the lands of our country
14:59literally almost 1,000 years ago.
15:02It will take 100 years or so.
15:04And to this very day,
15:06this great document echoes across the land
15:08where areas exist for the people to care
15:11and use as they see fit.
15:14Here I am on common land,
15:16West Common, on Charlotte.
15:18I feel very content up here.
15:20For how long, I'm not so sure.
15:23I could be after you.
15:25I could be going, going, gone.
15:26Hold tight.
15:27You're certainly cutting a dash, Charles.
15:29To this day, this 100-hectare green
15:33has enjoyed grazing rights,
15:35all thanks to a distant realm in medieval England
15:38that gave the power back to the people.
15:41And that, Charlotte,
15:43has been a very good road trip, or horse trip.
15:47What do you think?
15:48I think she wants you to hoof it.
15:50Ha-ha!
15:51Let's look for a room.
15:54I quite like being up high, actually.
15:55I can see over the hedges,
15:57peer into the gardens,
15:58I feel like I'm queen of the road.
16:00Proper road trip royalty, this.
16:05Rue is also in the city of Lincoln.
16:08Back in the 13th century,
16:09Lincoln Cathedral was the tallest building in the world,
16:12even dwarfing the pyramids in Egypt.
16:16Oh! Cats!
16:18Cats!
16:22Oh, this is just perfect for Rue.
16:25Hello, darling.
16:26A cat cafe?
16:29Whatever will they think of next?
16:33He's feline hungry.
16:36Mmm.
16:39This is a perfect day.
16:41Positively.
16:42You love cats,
16:43but I'm not sure they love you, Rue.
16:46Nothing.
16:46Not even a peep or a meow.
16:48Well, babies,
16:49I'd love to stay here all day long,
16:50but the antiques aren't going to buy themselves, are they?
16:53No, someone's got a day job.
16:54Bye, little one.
16:55Yeah, shove off.
17:01Blimey, back to work, Rue.
17:03Just up the road lies Lincoln Antiques and Collectibles.
17:09Oh, is there a cat up there?
17:11From her £400 kitty,
17:15Rue now has £190.
17:20There's over 40 dealers with goodies on sale in here.
17:24What else can we find?
17:25Before me stands a very beautiful horse?
17:31I never really buy anything animal-related unless it's cats,
17:36but I'm thinking this is leather.
17:38I want to feel if this is heavy or not.
17:41Yeah, leather animal sculptures are quite, not common, but they're hotly collected.
17:48So many horse lovers out there that will buy anything horse-related.
17:53And I think two things I really love about this, the animal.
17:57Secondly, the size.
17:59Leather-wrapped horse sculptures can date back as far as the 18th century,
18:04but those in the mid-century in arts and crafts style are particularly sought after.
18:10I haven't looked at the price tag yet, so I'm getting a little bit excited,
18:15but leather horse, £120.
18:19If I could get that down a bit more, this could be my next buy to take to auction.
18:26I think it's quality, I think it's beautifully done.
18:28I'm liking it, but it all depends on price.
18:32There's dealer Dave.
18:34Whoa there!
18:35Hello!
18:35So what I'm wondering is, what is an amazing price you can do
18:39that's in sort of double figures?
18:42£120.
18:43How about a solid tonne?
18:45How does that sound?
18:45Just £100.
18:46Nay, chance.
18:47I was thinking, or hoping, more for around about the £70, £75.
18:52I'll tell you what, I'll meet you at £80.
18:54How does that sound?
18:54Is that your absolute best?
18:55I think so, yeah, definitely, yeah.
18:57OK.
18:58In that case, through the legs.
19:00Rain it in.
19:01Oops!
19:02Sorry, Ned!
19:03I think you got off right there.
19:07Hence the long face.
19:09Brilliant, thank you very much.
19:09Thank you so much.
19:11Thanks, Dave.
19:12Ned will make his own way to auction.
19:15Roo now has £110 remaining.
19:26I think we might be in three, but you've carried it well,
19:29which means we'll be.
19:30Oh, I don't know, it's just...
19:33Blimey.
19:35Nighty night.
19:44Good morning.
19:45Hold on, hold on.
19:46Oh.
19:48Sorry.
19:49Challenge.
19:49You are the loveliest distraction to anyone
19:52who's trying to keep their eyes on the road.
19:54Sorry about that.
19:55I just feel...
19:56I feel so content.
19:57Aw, that gladdens me heart.
20:00If there's an antique that sums you up,
20:02what is it?
20:02What are you?
20:03I would be a piece of English Dave's
20:05at Delftware
20:06if I were badly chipped from the wall.
20:08Aw, no, you're not.
20:09I think you would be a piece in mint condition.
20:12Get out of here.
20:13Best buds or what?
20:14I think you would be a car mascot,
20:17beautifully shimmering in the lights
20:22of a lovely, smart motor.
20:25Do you know, that's so lovely,
20:26I'm not even going to offer up my own antique.
20:28I'll take yours instead.
20:29Get out of here.
20:30Aw, thank you.
20:31Get out of here.
20:32You old charmer.
20:34Yesterday, Charles went for it
20:36with his big wadge of cash.
20:37Buying the 18th century Chinese porcelain
20:41large tureen
20:43and the Victorian two-piece dress.
20:45Buy my old dress,
20:47and I might, and I will.
20:48Charles, a big spender,
20:51Hanson,
20:52has £175 stashed
20:54in his road trip wallet.
20:57Rue was in super shop mode,
20:59collecting the Murano bowl,
21:02the 18th century patch box,
21:03the Georgian mourning brooch
21:05and the large leather horse sculpture.
21:07I love a good bell.
21:11Meaning, Rue,
21:12I love to shop.
21:13Irvin now has £110.
21:17I spy with my little eye
21:20something beginning with H.
21:22Not me, but it's not Hanson.
21:24Ahem.
21:25Hedges.
21:26You're correct.
21:27All I can see, hedges.
21:29Bit of an easy one, that.
21:30I spy with my little eye
21:32something beginning with L.
21:33Long road.
21:35One more guess,
21:35then I'll tell you.
21:36L-l-l-l-l-milla,
21:37it must be
21:38the type of cloud,
21:40luminous clouds.
21:41No.
21:42What is it?
21:42Legends.
21:43Oh, get out of here.
21:46Yeah, peace of work.
21:49Busy mates forever.
21:51Their travels today
21:52will continue around Lincolnshire,
21:54heading to Nottinghamshire.
21:56Charles has been dropped off
21:57somewhere just outside Nathenby.
21:59Blimey.
22:03I'm determined.
22:05It's a thumbs up to the environment.
22:07I'm doing my bits for that.
22:09Literally, I'm on a Roman road.
22:11Ermine Street.
22:13It was a main link road,
22:15linking London to Lincoln to York.
22:18Usain Bolt, eat your heart out.
22:20Civilisation.
22:23What was going on
22:24on this road
22:26all those years ago?
22:29Horses and carts
22:30I can run
22:31that'll work hard
22:33for the Antilles road trip.
22:35There's no let-up.
22:37This is history.
22:39The Roman way.
22:40The Roman road.
22:41Go, Carlos.
22:42Straight on.
22:43It goes on
22:44and on.
22:45Yeah.
22:46And on.
22:47Ah, yes!
22:49Our very own Clark Kent, eh?
22:51Well, we made it to Nathenby.
22:54I've made it, Antique Centre.
22:56Here we are.
22:57At least he's sorted his tie.
23:03Let's get in and get delving.
23:07Yep, it looks really lovely in here.
23:11Charles has £175 stashed in his pocket.
23:17This is a Prince Regent style
23:19of circa 1810.
23:20Importantly,
23:21look at that colour.
23:23That is the colour of mahogany
23:25you want to see.
23:26It's what we call plum pudding.
23:28It's just deep,
23:29it's rich,
23:31it's got a gorgeous colour
23:32and it could be yours for £78.
23:3530 years ago,
23:36that would have been £150.
23:38Now at auction,
23:39probably worth £40.
23:40But you know what?
23:41It's just a gorgeous design.
23:43Recycle,
23:45gorgeous,
23:45go green hall chair.
23:47But at £78,
23:48probably a bit too much
23:49when I'm looking to make
23:51a bit of that.
23:52Calm down,
23:53Del Boy.
23:58Look at that.
24:00It's an oak panel.
24:02And you can just see
24:04all the dirt and grime
24:06in the crevices
24:08of what would be
24:10a family armorial
24:11or crest.
24:13You've got this swept,
24:15scaly,
24:16horned mammal
24:17of sorts.
24:20And it simply says
24:21oak panel,
24:22£24.
24:23Now this clearly has
24:24perhaps come off
24:26perhaps a blanket chest.
24:28But the reason
24:28I like this
24:29is you look at the cut
24:30and the grain of wood
24:32here on the side
24:34and the back of it.
24:36This has got some age.
24:38But I think it's
24:38late 18th century.
24:39I think it's circa
24:401790.
24:42I think at £24,
24:44it's got a bleat
24:45or a bar
24:47of a profit.
24:49And I like that.
24:50It's just hidden
24:50in this corner.
24:53He's not kidding.
24:55Ah,
24:55there's dealer Dean
24:57to talk Moolah.
24:59Hi, Dean.
25:01Hi, George.
25:01Are you OK?
25:02How's life?
25:03Very good.
25:03It's like coming
25:04to an old long boss friend.
25:05It's good.
25:06There's a very nice
25:07carved oak plaque.
25:09Quite unusual.
25:10It's a goat, isn't it?
25:11Is it a goat?
25:12I think it's a goat.
25:13But I'm feeling
25:13the horns have it.
25:15Yeah.
25:16And that goat
25:16might have legs.
25:17It's a medium arm.
25:19And climb the highlands
25:20of auction.
25:21And he'll pay you
25:22the full £24.
25:25There's two.
25:27There's three
25:27and there's four.
25:28Thanking you, Dean.
25:30Charles now has
25:31£151 remaining.
25:37Meanwhile,
25:38let's find a Rue.
25:40I'm loving
25:41what I've bought.
25:42But Charles,
25:43he's quite
25:44the mighty contender.
25:45So I need to keep
25:46my wits about me
25:47at all times.
25:48Rue has made it
25:49to Mansfield
25:50in Nottinghamshire,
25:51the legendary base
25:52of medieval robber
25:54Robin Hood.
25:55What can Rue
25:56hunt down in here
25:57with her remaining
25:58£110?
26:07Charles, London calling.
26:09Get out of here.
26:10Hello, Charles.
26:12Hang on for me.
26:13See, I'm always
26:17on the look
26:18for a sign.
26:19Reduced £48
26:20down to £38.
26:22So if your surname
26:23was Woodridge,
26:24excellent.
26:25Brilliant thing
26:26to buy
26:26and put in your home.
26:27If not,
26:28it's kind of got
26:29limited appeal.
26:30But I need to find
26:31something to beat it.
26:32While Rue
26:33scars the shelves,
26:36Charles is over
26:3730 miles away
26:38in the town
26:38of Grantham.
26:41The mathematics
26:42genius that
26:43discovered gravity,
26:44Sir Isaac Newton,
26:45was born here.
26:48Keeping his
26:49tippy toes
26:50firmly on the ground,
26:51what can Charles
26:52find at
26:53Notion's
26:54Antique Centre?
26:54It's just
26:58an Aladdin's
26:58cave of
26:59dreams,
27:00of drama
27:00and hopefully
27:01profits.
27:03He should be
27:03on the stage,
27:04you know.
27:05Charles has
27:06just over
27:07£150
27:08left.
27:12What I like
27:13is this.
27:18I thought
27:19it was.
27:20It's one of these.
27:22Hit us
27:23with it,
27:23Charles.
27:24It is.
27:25What it is,
27:26it's a Royal
27:27Navy rum pump
27:28to give sailors,
27:30workers their
27:31daily ration.
27:32This is a
27:34manner of
27:35tradition which
27:36goes back to
27:36the reign of
27:37Charles II.
27:38We're talking
27:39something which
27:40goes back to
27:401667.
27:42Quite right,
27:43Charles.
27:44Rum was used
27:45as an alternative
27:46to beer which
27:47was more prone
27:48to going off
27:49whilst at sea.
27:51I'm a bit
27:51giddy with this
27:52actually.
27:52I feel a bit
27:52giddy because
27:53it's such a
27:53great object.
27:54And you can
27:55imagine,
27:56this obviously
27:56would pump
27:57into this
27:58central section
27:59here.
28:00Your tots,
28:01I think it's
28:01called a rum,
28:02and then maybe
28:03a glass here
28:04would pour out
28:06that measure
28:07of what you
28:09are entitled
28:09to.
28:10Cheers.
28:11I really rate it.
28:12I think it's a great
28:13lot.
28:14Certainly a double rum
28:14at 179,
28:16and that could be
28:17just shaken
28:17and might be
28:18stirred.
28:18I think you're
28:20on to a goodie,
28:21double O,
28:22Carlos.
28:24Let's knit
28:25back to Rue
28:26in Mansfield.
28:31I love the
28:34sculptural shape
28:34of this.
28:35I love the size,
28:36the height,
28:37the bulb,
28:38this bottom.
28:40But these you
28:40could see in any
28:41modern home,
28:43but also a
28:44Victorian home,
28:45a Georgian home.
28:45You could dress
28:46them up as you
28:47want.
28:48And what I'm
28:48liking about these
28:49is it says,
28:50two red glass
28:51vases,
28:51£45.
28:53That's quite a
28:54lot of glass
28:54for £45.
28:56But what boxes
28:57is it taking?
28:58Colour,
28:59shape,
28:59and the fact
29:00they're a pair.
29:01Let's look at
29:02the base,
29:03good condition,
29:05no cracks.
29:07Now,
29:07I've bought
29:08a lot of age
29:09so far,
29:10a lot of age.
29:11So I don't
29:12mind switching
29:13it up
29:14and getting
29:15some mid-20th
29:16century
29:16art glass.
29:18This,
29:19on the plus
29:20side,
29:21is handmade.
29:22You can see
29:23where at the
29:24bottom that's
29:24been hand-blown.
29:26The thing is,
29:26they are good
29:27prices and
29:28people pay
29:29well for
29:29art glass.
29:31Which one
29:31do I like
29:32better?
29:32Well,
29:32that depends
29:33on the price.
29:34They're both
29:34priced at
29:35£45.
29:36Jeff's the
29:37man in
29:37charge here.
29:39Let's ask.
29:41Hi,
29:41Jeff.
29:42Hello.
29:43So can
29:44you tell me
29:44on the
29:45pair of
29:45ruby red
29:45vases,
29:46what is
29:47the absolute
29:47bottom,
29:48bottom,
29:49bottom line
29:50that you
29:51can do
29:51to help
29:52make my
29:52decision
29:52easier?
29:53They take
29:54up a lot
29:54of space,
29:54don't they?
29:55I would say
29:55£35.
29:56£35,
29:57OK.
29:57And on
29:58the tall
29:59vase...
29:59The same.
30:00You've
30:01got to
30:01make it
30:01differ.
30:03Make it
30:03£30.
30:04For
30:04which?
30:05For
30:06the
30:06tall
30:06one.
30:07So £30
30:08for the
30:08vase,
30:09it probably
30:09makes sense
30:10to go
30:10for the
30:10one
30:10that's
30:10handmade.
30:11No,
30:12I will
30:12take the
30:13vase at
30:14£30,
30:14please.
30:15Thank you
30:15so much.
30:16Well,
30:17we got
30:17there in
30:17the end.
30:19Rue now
30:20has the
30:20sound of
30:21just £80
30:21left.
30:24Back to
30:25Carlos in
30:25Grantham.
30:26what I've
30:30just found
30:30on this
30:31pink chair
30:31down here
30:33are a
30:34pair of
30:34photo frames.
30:35I would
30:36say these
30:36are from
30:37the Great
30:37War years.
30:38So you're
30:38talking 1914-18.
30:40We're just
30:41into the reign
30:42of George V.
30:43And these
30:44are naive.
30:45And for
30:46the pair,
30:47they're
30:47£59.
30:49This
30:49one is
30:50really quite
30:50crude.
30:52But again,
30:52once again,
30:53you can see
30:53you've got
30:54the oval
30:55photo frame
30:57this time.
30:58Some design
30:59and on the
31:00back,
31:00some evidence
31:01of where
31:01photographs
31:02once sat.
31:03A split
31:04on this
31:04one here
31:04that will
31:05affect value.
31:06This one
31:06is priced
31:07at £23.
31:09What I
31:09would want
31:09to do
31:10is put
31:10all three
31:11together.
31:11And like
31:12a clock
31:12garniture,
31:13you've got
31:14the pair
31:14and the
31:15big
31:15centrepiece
31:16of a
31:16clock.
31:17Here
31:17you've
31:17got
31:17your
31:19pair
31:19and then
31:20in the
31:21middle
31:21you've
31:22got
31:22your main
31:23one.
31:23We're
31:23ready
31:24to talk
31:24money.
31:25Standby
31:26dealer
31:26Sharon.
31:28Sharon,
31:29are you
31:29around?
31:31Hi,
31:31Charles.
31:31Hi.
31:32Starting
31:33with the
31:3319th
31:33century
31:34Royal
31:34Navy
31:35copper
31:35rum
31:36pump
31:36priced
31:37at
31:37£179.
31:40What's
31:41the best
31:41before I
31:42walk the
31:43plank
31:43on that?
31:44What's
31:44the death
31:45on that
31:45in
31:45grand
31:45thing?
31:46We
31:46could
31:46probably
31:46do
31:46that
31:47for
31:47100
31:47to
31:47you.
31:48Really?
31:48Yes.
31:48That gives you
31:49a good profit
31:49still?
31:50We've got
31:50a small
31:50profit
31:51in that.
31:51I really
31:52rate it.
31:52It's got
31:53such great
31:53social history.
31:56Mental note.
31:58The garniture of
31:58our nouveau photograph
31:59frames come to
32:01£82 in total.
32:03If I walk the two
32:04together and made a
32:05garniture of three
32:06in a lot,
32:07what could the best be?
32:08So that's 82,
32:09isn't it?
32:10Yeah.
32:10Is there a
32:11discount on that?
32:1150.
32:12Wow.
32:13All three?
32:13Yeah, all three for
32:1450.
32:14Great.
32:15So you're saying
32:15how much?
32:1650.
32:17And?
32:18And 100.
32:19Equals?
32:20150.
32:21A deal.
32:22Thank you very much
32:22indeed.
32:22That's amazing.
32:23140.
32:2550.
32:25That's great.
32:26I'll go and get
32:26my lots.
32:27Great to see you
32:28again.
32:28Take care.
32:29I'll be in
32:29touch.
32:31Bye.
32:31Many thanks,
32:32Sharon.
32:33Charles has
32:34almost blown the
32:35budget to Kingdom
32:36Come with just
32:37one pound left.
32:38That's all the
32:40shopping done
32:41and dusted.
32:42Yes,
32:43any year.
32:43I'm just
32:43about any year.
32:44I look like
32:45maths like that.
32:46Years.
32:471793.
32:48In 1793,
32:49Bobby Spierre was
32:50killed in France
32:50during the
32:51Federal Revolution.
32:52Next one.
32:53Are you sure
32:53about that?
32:55Best get some
32:56shut eye.
32:59We are breathless
33:01with anticipation.
33:03Time to find out
33:04if we can make
33:05some big bucks.
33:05He's bendy.
33:08You're first,
33:09OK?
33:10With a heel
33:10toe,
33:11into a cell
33:12room,
33:13hopefully,

33:53When I saw
33:54this carved panel,
33:55the one thing
33:55that jumped out
33:56at me was
33:56the goat,
33:57and it may well
33:58have come from
33:58a family coat

35:13buster.
35:14But the day is yet young.
35:17I'll get the violin out for my lovely tureen and say farewell, I love you, goodbye.
35:22What a drama queen, eh?
35:25Over to Rue, with the 18th century enamel patchbox.
35:29I just, you know, when I looked in that mirror, I thought, what woman's eyes looked into this mirror 250 years ago?
35:35Er, 30 pounds for it, I've got 25, I've got 25, 25, 25, 28 now, 30, 32, 35, sell it, 38, sell it, 38, sell it, 38, come on internet please, 38, 40, 40, 40, 40, don't be put off room, 40, I'm trying, 40 pounds.
35:55Watch it, Carlos, commiserations, Rue.
36:02There's no out.
36:03And with a swish of his skirts, it's Charles' Victorian two-piece dress.
36:09I think you'll say, Charles, I love that dress, I want it.
36:12120.
36:13Start it straight in at 30 bits.
36:15Excellent.
36:16Come on.
36:16It's very stylish, you know, at 30.
36:19Beautiful.
36:20Do you like it?
36:21Model it in a minute for us.
36:22That's right.
36:23I will, I will.
36:24At 30.
36:25You're worth it.
36:26At 30.
36:26I'm selling it at 30.
36:28No, I'm sorry.
36:28Are you bidding, sir?
36:29Are you bidding?
36:3032.
36:30Charles will throw in a free dance with the Lucky Bidder.
36:3432.
36:35They're not paying anybody else.
36:36Hello.
36:3732 pounds.
36:39It's gone.
36:40Oh.
36:41God, blimey, that hurts right in the bustle.
36:44It's beautiful, it's in gorgeous condition.
36:47You're not going to get that again.
36:48No, but it's gone.
36:50The Georgian mourning brooch from Rue now.
36:53I would buy memorial jewellery all day long, and I would wear it, I would adorn myself.
36:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.
36:58Some people find it a bit grotesque, but I find it incredibly romantic.
37:02We're going to start at 22.5.
37:04Oh, it's a good thing.
37:0532.
37:06Well done.
37:0832.
37:10Anyone else going on at 32?
37:12I know, I know.
37:1432.
37:15Lost in time.
37:17It does.
37:17History is lost.
37:18Not quite, Chas.
37:20Someone's just bought it, you know.
37:22Small loss of four pounds.
37:23Unlucky partner.
37:24I know.
37:26Goat ready.
37:28The 18th century oak panel from Charles.
37:31I had a goat many years ago called Wobbly, you know, when I was young at home.
37:34I had two broken legs called Wobbly.
37:37And that kind of connected me with this goat.
37:39And we have started at 42, 45, 48, 55, 60.
37:45Go on.
37:4660.
37:4765.
37:48Think of Wobbly.
37:4870.
37:50I'm delighted with this.
37:51Good.
37:52I'm so happy.
37:53At 70 pounds.
37:55I'm so happy.
37:58In memory of Wobbly.
37:59What a result.
38:01You're washing up there.
38:02Wobbly, that was for you.
38:04Wobbly, I love you.
38:0520, 25.
38:07Enough kidding about.
38:09Sorry.
38:09It's Rue's Murano glass bowl.
38:12But it's almost like if you were to crawl into a stick of rock and get lost in there and live in that candy world.
38:18That's what it's like.
38:19I can start at 45, 50, 25, 75, 75.
38:24The colours are solid.
38:275, 90.
38:28Slow down.
38:29Lovely piece of glass.
38:30Go on.
38:31It is.
38:31100.
38:32100.
38:33110.
38:34You're flying.
38:35110.
38:35Chabella.
38:36Chabella.
38:37Beautiful.
38:38Pounds.
38:40Yes.
38:42Molto bene.
38:43Ciao, profitos.
38:45Your art form is colour.
38:47And that Murano ball is you.
38:49Oh, thank you.
38:49I just, I was drawn in.
38:50Onwards with Charles's Scottish Art Nouveau photograph panels.
38:56OK, we've come to Scotland.
38:5830 pounds for me.
38:59I'm buying for your nation.
39:00Excellent.
39:00And I have.
39:01I've got 20, babe.

39:0525.
39:06Keep going.
39:0725.

39:0830.
39:09Really nice.
39:0932.

39:11Keep going.

39:13I can feel it.
39:1440.
39:1542.
39:1645.
39:1745.
39:18Anyone else going on at 45?
39:19Selling on the internet at 45.
39:22At 45 pounds.
39:24Green pass.
39:26A bargain for the lucky bidder.
39:29They were worth a lot more.
39:30They were.
39:31They were beautiful.
39:32That's what you're going.
39:33I'll pay you later.
39:34Blimey.
39:35That's a whopper.
39:36It's Rue's art glass vase.
39:39This is the first time I bought more with my head than my heart.
39:42But then it will show whether that's a good thing or not to buy with your head or your heart.
39:46I've got 25 bid.
39:4728.
39:4830.
39:492.
39:505.

39:52Perfect for Singapore orchids.
39:535.
39:54Amazing.
39:55At 48 pounds.
39:57This time the head won Rue.
39:59What play partner?
40:02Fancy a tot?
40:03I present you with the George IV copper rum pump.
40:07It's got a real maritime flavour and a sweet taste and I love rum.
40:14So hopefully.

40:42120.
40:44At 100.
40:45It'd be nice to get one more beer.
40:47That's OK.
40:48That's well done.
40:49Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.
40:52You've escaped walking the plank.
40:55I feel as pleased as.
40:57Pudge.
40:59Giddy up.
41:00It's the final lot.
41:01Rue's leather horse.
41:02It just called to me.
41:04It says, you must buy me.
41:05You must take me home.
41:07Get me to a good home.
41:0850.
41:0930.
41:10Oh.
41:10And I've got 30 big.

41:2042.
41:2045.

41:22Wow.

41:24Oh, look at this now.

41:33Anyone else going on at 110?
41:34120.
41:35130.
41:36Oh, my goodness me.
41:37You're moving in a canter now.
41:38Hold tight.
41:38No, we're nearly galloping at 130.
41:40That's right.
41:40Hold tight.
41:42At 140.
41:43You're in the saddle.
41:45You're holding out.
41:46150.
41:47Salute.
41:48160.
41:49You.
41:50160.
41:51160.
41:52Selling away at 160.
41:53Anyone else want in at 160 pounds?
41:58High five.
41:59Amazing.
42:00Yes.
42:01A runaway success.
42:03That result has made Rue financially stable.
42:06I think we should, you know.
42:08Pump ourselves up.
42:09Yeah.
42:09It's good to think about the numbers.
42:11Well done.
42:12I think you've taken that and we'll have the scores.
42:14Yep.
42:15Let's crunch some numbers.
42:16After certain costs, Charles has a sum of 244 pounds and 54 pence, while Rue, also after
42:25costs, made 399 pounds and 80 pence, making Rue triumphant.
42:33But there are still three more to go.
42:39Wow.
42:40I was not expecting that.
42:42Do you know, it's like one and two.
42:44You're now two nil up.
42:45What's a secret?
42:46Can you give me some advice?
42:47How do you do this?
42:48Why with your eyes closed?
42:49How do you do it?
42:50Now talk to me.
42:51I've no idea.
42:52Talk to me.
42:53Next time on the trip.
42:55How would you head back into the deck?
42:56Can you do one for me now?
42:58And that's how you do it.
42:59Charles gives a top tip.
43:01There's not much wedge in the wood.
43:03So when there's no wedge in the wood, you walk away from Wedgwood.
43:07Well, Rue is feeling clayful.
43:10I am so happy there at home.
43:15I am so happy there at home.
43:35I am so happy there at home.
43:37You
