Find It Fix It Flog It (2016-2022): Season 1, Episode 6 - Episode #1.6 - full transcript
Look at this!
The homes of Britain are stacked
with old possessions.
I'll tell you what. Look at that.
That's lovely.
What looks like junk can actually
be worth a pretty penny.
What could you use that for?
I've never seen anything like that
in my life before.
Henry Cole and Simon O'Brien
are here to help turn that clutter
into hard cash.
We can get serious money for that.
£100,000? Yeah.
Upcycling genius, Simon...
That looks cool.
...and his restorer love turning
everyday objects
into fantastic furniture.
Gemma...
Come on!
Absolutely winner.
You've got to slot it in. Hang on.
Whilst for Henry and his mechanic...
That is absolutely stunning, Guy.
It's all about restoring retro
relics and vintage classics.
ENGINE ROARS
She's off!
It runs.
Despite their differences,
they always come good
and they'll turn a tidy profit
for their owners.
You're going to put
in your pocket
£10,630.
Absolutely brilliant.
Today...
Pull!
Henry's shooting for the stars.
Yay!
Prepare to be amazed.
Simon's come
down to earth with a bump.
Don't tell me you're looking
at the bumper car.
I'm looking at the bumper car,
look at it!
And one of Henry's sales
has the alarm bells ringing.
Oh, my God, I love it!
BELL RINGS
I only found out the other day what
the word shed comes from.
Go on?
It comes from an Anglo-Saxon
word for shade,
shud. Seriously? Yeah.
Henry and Simon are on the road
and their search
for hidden treasure has brought them
to Wiltshire,
home of crop circles,
Stonehenge and a lot of soldiers.
Wiltshire is an enormous MoD place.
Thousands of acres are given
over to the MoD.
Is that what it's famous for
military stuff? It really is.
With that in mind,
let battle commence.
Both boys get to choose
a candidate for
a clear out and Simon's up first.
We're going to see
a lovely fellow called Derek.
I hope he's got some nice
stuff, mate,
because I know about your sheds.
Listen, even as we approach this
place, you're going to love it.
This house has got a better
thatch than you!
LAUGHS LOUDLY
Honestly? It must be good.
Honestly, yeah.
Yes, Henry's thatch is not a patch
on this 16th-century farmhouse.
It's home to Derek, a retired film
editor and with three barns
he's never needed to throw away
any family possessions.
The barns are full of old cars
and bits of machinery.
It's accumulated over the years.
Doting grandad Derek wants to raise
some money from his rubbish
to take his grandkids on holiday.
To have anybody turning junk into
something that's a useful item,
it's got to be good.
I'm quite keen for them to do it.
Let's go and meet Derek.
Go and meet Derek.
Hi. How are you?
I'm fine, how are you.
I think I've found paradise.
Hello, I'm Henry, how are you?
Hi, Henry. Welcome to Wiltshire.
How long have you been here?
30 years.
That's music to our ears because, if
you've been here 30 years,
that means you've accumulated
some stuff in that time.
Other things, as well.
There is a little bit. Is there?
There is a few bits of junk out
there you might find interesting.
He calls it junk. Yeah, I know.
But it's not.
There is junk. There's junk and
there is junk, Derek.
Well...
OK, jackets off. Be my guest.
CHUCKLES
As ever, Henry and Simon need to
find two items each today.
They may choose anything that they
can add value to,
sell on and return Derek
a tidy profit.
Oh, yes, please.
All right, we've done well.
Where others see junk,
Henry spies potential.
Now I'm completely exhausted.
Blimey, how many more of those?
Have you got any more down there?
Here we go.
That's actually smarted you up.
Has it? Yeah.
And Henry's new look soon inspires
them to uncover what could
well be his first find of the day.
Simon? Yes.
This is my all-time love.
What? It's a clay pigeon trap.
That's something I've always
wanted to tinker with,
fettle and basically put some clays
in it and have some fun with it.
Clay pigeon shooting is an Olympic
sport and, with over 500 clubs
in the UK,
this is a potentially popular piece.
So you put that in there like
that... Yeah.
You pull it back like that. Yeah.
Then you kind of let go.
Go on, then.
It's worth a look, though,
because you don't see one of
these every day.
I do, actually. You don't.
Not in the back streets of
Liverpool, mate.
There is a market for that
kind of stuff.
If it's stopping anyone going to
shoot anything, I'm up for it.
He's claimed the clay pigeon trap
as his first piece.
Get out of the way!
What are you doing?
And motor mad Henry may have found
something else
that's right up his street.
Hello.
Spirit Of Ecstasy, what does
that mean?
It's a Rolls-Royce.
Who has a Rolls-Royce
in their shed?
Just sitting there?
Extraordinary.
CHUCKLES
That's it, look, that. Hey?
I don't particularly like them.
It's a Rolls-Royce!
I know but I find them relatively ostentatious.
Yes, it's a Rolls-Royce!
For some reason, people think, Simon
being one of them,
that any Rolls-Royce as long as it's
got that Spirit Of Ecstasy
and it's got the Rolls-Royce brand
on it, it's worth serious money.
Er, wrong.
Despite their reputation,
old Rolls Royces don't
necessarily make big money.
A new model might cost £100,000
but you can pick up a working,
clean 30-year-old one
for under 10,000.
This is the only time I've ever
sat in a Rolls-Royce.
And it's probably going to be the
last time, as well, really. Eh?
Thank you, O'Brien.
We're here, Sir.
Are we here at Sloane Square,
or not?
Ah!
Cleethorpes!
A rummage reveals that
as well as a relic Rolls,
this barn is hiding some slightly
perished pine.
Oh, hello.
I like that.
That is gorgeous, isn't it?
For once in my life,
I agree with you.
Despite its condition, Simon's
convinced that this table could be
restored and make
a bit of cash for Derek.
So it's pine. Yeah.
A little bit of woodworm.
No problem. Really?
It doesn't do that much damage,
just a little bit like this.
I would quite happily have that
in my dining room.
I have something very
similar as it is.
Except this one might be slightly
nicer so maybe I'll...
No, no, no, I will...
It's for Derek.
I'll sell it for Derek.
So Simon's taking the table and the
boys have one item each.
Let's delve deeper. Delve deeper.
And amongst the barn clutter
a strange wooden contraption has
caught Simon's eye.
Look at this gorgeous thing.
You pick your apples and you
store them in the rack.
How about them apples?
Because they've got the slats,
it keeps the air moving around
so they don't rot.
Stand it upright.
Henry's not convinced that this is
a potentially profitable piece.
It looks quite home-made, Simon.
This, of all of the things we've
seen in here,
is the apple of my eye.
THEY LAUGH
I don't know why,
some things just catch your eye.
It just looks like
a lovely kind of storage thing.
A proper inspection and the penny's
dropped, even for Henry.
BOTH: Sock drawer.
You know it, mate,
See, it's going well today,
isn't it?
Mate, I'm having a ball. Yeah.
That's Simon's second item sorted
and Henry's just spotted
an '80s icon.
Do you actually know what
this car is?
I know exactly what this car is.
Go on, then.
This is a Peugeot 205 GTi.
The inside is mint. Is it?
In really good nick.
It does look nice.
This particular Peugeot
dates back to 1987.
The 205 was a classic hot hatch
and the 1.9 GTi
was the fastest and most
desirable model of the lot.
The very last car I ever had was
a 205 GTi.
I'm just in shock.
I don't know how you exist.
I have to tell you I have not seen
a Peugeot 205 GTi in that
condition, ever, in a barn.
The good news is the clock's
working.
The cassette box looks lovely still.
You spend all that money on a car...
What impressed me,
the tape cassette holder.
MUSIC PLAYS
Hang on, that is quite '80s.
Is that a cassette that's playing?
No.
No, that's on the radio.
It only picks up '80s stations.
Does it?
But at the moment the clock and the
radio is about all the works.
Henry's Rover and jump leads
should help.
Just try it one more time. OK.
Oh...
OK, it didn't go but it will.
The bodywork and the interior
is just absolutely mint.
We've just got to get it going.
It may be poorly but the 205 is
a favourite among passionate
Peugeot collectors,
so Henry's taking it.
The boys now have two items each
but will Derek think their haul
has a chance of turning him
a profit?
Now you're not going to make much
money on this but I thought
it would be quite fun to have
a little clay trap to deal with.
Fine, I think you're right
and I go with it. Good, good.
But there is one item that isn't
here and that is the
Peugeot 205 GTi that I would
love to take away.
Absolutely. And hopefully make
some money on for you.
It would nice to see it working
again. Oh, good. Fantastic.
Now we'll move onto my items. Mm-hm.
First of all,
I just love this old table.
It's yours. It's a fabulous item.
Then perhaps my surprise choice.
A little apple drier. Yeah.
Which is very nice.
THEY LAUGH
Come on. OK.
Now tell me what you really think.
I'm sure you'll make something
of it. CHUCKLES
Thank you very much.
Cheers now.
Coming up... rigorous restorations.
All this dust that's coming off,
that's surface corrosion.
Inspirational ideas...
It's going to be
a complete one-off,
no-one's going to have
a table like this.
And, at the second search,
there's an alarming discovery.
BELL RINGS
Cor, blimey!
You're going to hear
that from a distance.
Expert up-cyclers Henry Cole and
Simon O'Brien are turning trash into cash.
BOTH: Sock drawer.
And they're ready to begin their
first restorations.
Simon is back in his home in Liverpool,
showing off what he has sourced.
I found this.
Yeah. Now, it's just...
...lovely, isn't it? It is.
Fine art graduate Gemma runs her own
arts and crafts business.
I'm going to get you to prepare your
furniture and we'll get
a top layer on as well today.
Her recycling and upcycling
workshops sell out as people bring
in their old furniture and part with
new skills and rejuvenated homeware.
The big difference between Gemma and
I - she seems to be much more
measured about stuff.
So I think in that way we complement
each other very well.
He's sort of like my big brother.
If we just give it a clean up and
a polish,
it's good to go, isn't it?
Simon's saying just sand it down
and keep it as it is.
Where's the fun in that?
I could work my magic on this, Simon.
We're here to restore things.
I want to make that colourful.
I'm going to make it really good.
Loads of bright paint on it.
Loads of flowers. Simon'll be sorry
he ever brought that back.
Gemma's taking charge.
Let's hope she's just as excited
about the next item.
If she can work out what it is.
I've never seen anything like it.
It's an apple drying rack. Yeah.
Simon plans to repurpose this
apple dryer into
a storage unit for clothes and
accessories. Socks, ties... Exactly.
All sorts. No, I like this. Yeah.
Nice little handles on it. OK. Yeah.
Gemma starts by tackling the table.
After treating it for woodworm,
she then sands down the rough
and damaged edges and adds a primer
to prepare it for painting.
This is looking better already.
Back home in Oxfordshire, Henry
has got two treats in store for
his restoration expert, Guy Wilson.
Guy is a master of all things mechanical.
Guy and I have known each other
since we were 15.
So I know him probably better than I
know anybody on this planet.
And Henry has brought him two very
different machines for him to
work his magic on.
First up, that old clay pigeon trap.
What is that? Ah!
Well, it looks homemade
except that bit there.
We're not going to make Derek much
money, are we? No.
But other than that, really,
we'll just make it serviceable.
Oil it up and have a laugh with it.
Yeah, definitely.
OK, shall we go on to something much
more interesting? Go on, then.
I mean, what does that say to you?
It just takes me back to my youth.
Does it? And I have quite fond
memories of these,
even though I've never
actually been in one.
It may look rubbish right now,
but you and I can see how beautiful
this is going to be.
It's surprisingly good, actually.
We're going to give it a once-over,
change all the fluids, new battery.
I can't wait to drive it.
No, it'll be fantastic.
No self-respecting boy racer would
be seen in the Peugeot in
this state.
So for Guy, it's out with the jet
wash and off with the 30 years of
grime, inside and out.
He's using a light cutting compound
that you can get from most
car outlets to remove the oxidised
paint from the surface and
then waxes to protect the fresh
paint beneath.
The Peugeot is now looking pristine,
but all of Guy's hard work
will be wasted if
he and Henry can't get it to start.
Back in Liverpool, Gemma is
continuing the work on that
pine table.
Stripped pine could fetch
good money,
but making this one as good as new
would be impossible.
So painting is going to make
the most profit.
I'm sure Simon'll think that I've
gone for magnolia.
But it's actually rice cake.
Very shabby chic.
But a coat of paint is just the
start of this transformation.
She's using a technique
called decoupage.
That's cutting stuff out
to you and I.
I completely underestimated how long
this would take me to do.
Decoupage is an effective and
inexpensive way to transform
old objects, and it can be done with
almost any type of paper or
flat material. It's going to be a
complete one-off.
No-one's going to have
a table like this.
The last step is to put
a varnish on.
Which'll protect the paper.
You'll be able to put water on it, then.
So it makes it more hard-wearing.
Gemma's managed to quickly breathe
new life into this old table.
Simon will be impressed. Touch wood.
In Oxfordshire...
Now, mate,
you are the king of polishing.
That has transformed it completely.
The classic Peugeot is still
a non-runner.
Henry's hoping mechanics Colin and
Greg can save the day without
breaking the bank.
Have you had a cursory look
under the bonnet?
I've had a quick look, yeah.
And we've got
a few bits for it that it needs.
Oh, blimey, boys.
That looks a lot of stuff.
Derek's barn may have kept the
Peugeot's bodywork in good nick,
but 20 years off the road means many
perishable items such as
rubber belts and hoses need
to be replaced.
And all at a cost.
OK, so basically what we've got is
a car that really needs
a good going through cos it's
been sitting around.
Yeah. Yeah?
All these new parts could
potentially drain the profit
Henry's meant to be making
for owner Derek.
Yep, it goes.
Not bad after 20 years.
The engine is up and running, but to
play it safe, new brakes are a must.
And replacing them means yet
more expense.
Fortunately, the clay pigeon trap
should be less of
a money pit as Guy's doing
the work himself.
This seat... I'm going to just try
and make another seat out of
a bit of pine I've got lying around, actually.
And then clean it up and prep
it for painting,
cos it looks a bit of a sorry mess.
The old seats and the foam
backrest are discarded.
The dust and feathers removed,
and the metal work sanded.
This is Scotch-Brite, just for
getting the loose debris off
the poles, cos you don't want it on
there when you paint them.
All this dust that's coming off,
that's just surface corrosion.
If you get this off,
the paint'll stick to it better.
With restorations from
Derek's well under way...
...it's time for the boy's
second search.
I'm telling you,
you're going to love this man.
And now it's Henry's turn to choose.
Do you know what? I'm liking it
already, I have to say.
He's sticking to home turf and
has dragged Simon down to
Oxfordshire to meet his old mate,
Phil Cherry.
For work, Phil supplies logs,
but for play, he collects.
I collect virtually anything old, basically.
Petrol cans, oil cans,
stationary engines... And the rest.
Dodgems, phone boxes,
even mannequins.
But after 40 years of collecting,
he's decided it's time to downsize
to help raise cash for his
real passion,
restoring old steam rollers.
If they can make a bit of money for
me, great.
Hi, Phil. This is Simon.
Hi, Simon. How are you?
Very pleased to meet you. And you.
How are you, mate? What an amazing
place, Phil. Thank you.
Tell me about it.
Well, we've been here 40 years and I
started collecting then and
it's just gone on from there.
I tell you what, mate.
This is just the start of it.
Let me tell you.
Now, then. Prepare to be amazed.
I am duly amazed.
As usual, the boys need to find two
items each from Phil's
well-filled yard.
Don't tell me you're looking
at the bumper car.
I am looking at the bumper car.
Look at it!
You don't come across them
every day, do you?
That is a good point.
Immediately, to me it says,
you know,
this is a kid's PlayStation in
a bedroom.
It's a bumper car.
That's right, yeah.
He's surrounded by automotive beauty
and he looks at something
that's a bit of plastic with
a mannequin sitting in it.
Would you be taking the
mannequin with it?
Well, I don't know.
I'd have to have a word with Phil.
He's been trying to get rid of her
for years, thanks very much.
If it had been in a little bit
better nick, I'd have gone
straight for the dodgem car,
but as it was, I dodged it.
But Henry's not about to dodge what
he's just stumbled upon.
Now, then, I have a secret pleasure,
mate, which is stationary engines.
This is a 1920s stationary engine,
which would have been used as
a factory power supply.
They would be in factories, yeah?
Or warehouses and they would power
water pumps, generators,
all that kind of stuff,
and that one is lovely.
Might get a couple of hundred quid
for that. You reckon?
Yeah. If I get it going.
And that's the problem right there.
It needs a new carburettor and you
can't just pick up one of
those from the spares shop.
So that needs to go on there somewhere.
Yeah, that could be nice.
A mere trifling problem there,
but Henry's not deterred.
He's bagged his first item.
Listen, I'm wandering off.
I'll leave you to it.
I've only just started.
Now, that's more like it.
He's disappeared again. To do what?
To look at a bit of copper pipe.
I thought there'd be this kind of
stuff laying round.
What he's going to do with that
copper pipe I have no idea.
But Simon is about to stumble upon
a plan for that piping.
Hello.
Where are you going?
Now we're talking.
What, you and
a toadstool and fairies?
Well, you see these everywhere,
don't you?
Yeah. What are they, staddle stones?
They are staddle stones.
Staddle stones were used to raise
grain stores off the ground
to protect the harvest from being
eaten by rodents.
But Simon has a more
outlandish idea for them.
I'm starting to put these
together... Yeah?
...with some copper pipe.
Come on.
Copper pipe? Yeah.
Have you gone barking mad?
Simon's staddle stone and copper
pipe plan means the boys have now
one project each.
And their next stop is
a super-size shed.
You've got an idea cos the shed's
quite high. It's a big shed.
Have a lookee.
When we met Josephine, well, I fell
in love with her, I have to say.
Come and tell Simon all about it, hey?
Well, it's a 1906 seven horse single
cylinder Garrett traction engine.
It's a beautifully built thing,
isn't it?
Even though it was just
a work-a-day...
They all were, though, weren't they?
All the Victorian stuff and that
era were all nicely made.
Am I right in saying that, like, 50
years ago they were worthless? Yeah.
60 years ago. Really?
Nobody wanted them, did they? It was
just scrap.
Yeah. Would you tell
me a value now or not?
Enough. Round about 100, 120 grand.
Really? Something like that.
So my idea about re-purposing it
into a bookshelf isn't...
Not really, it'd be a very expensive
bookshelf. It was just a thought.
Phil's not about to part with
his pride and joy,
so his final shed will need to
provide plenty.
We're in here.
Yes, please! Hello, hello.
Wow. Aladdin's cave.
BUZZER
Was that...
Honestly, mate, was that the curry?
If you were going to create the
perfect little shed with all
little knickknacks to mooch around
in, that's it.
This is a collection, isn't it?
It's just a collection of lovely
things. Yeah. For sure. It is.
Simon found something that I had my
eye on straight away.
It's a search light off the front of
a boat, isn't it?
Is it? Yeah. I think just purpose
that up, get it working.
That's gorgeous, isn't it?
And hot on Simon's heels,
Henry's spotted something too.
Are you ready?
BELL RINGS
Cor blimey. You're going to hear
that from distance.
It'd be the perfect thing for
a large country house that
has someone to ring the
bell for lunch. Dinner!
I'm loving that.
Simon's search light and Henry's
bell bring an end to this trawl.
They've both chosen two items each,
but will owner Phil think they've
got potentially profitable picks?
Hopefully what you see before you,
we can take away.
Now, on my side of things, obviously
the little stationary engine there.
Yeah. Give that a trundle,
hopefully. Yeah.
And we might get some nice
money for that. Good.
And then the fire alarm,
don't be alarmed,
but I think that'll clean up and be
a nice decorative item.
Yeah, I can see that, yeah.
Over my side, I mean, I just love
this lamp and I think,
probably mounted,
that's just going to make
a gorgeous lamp.
Now, then, I've been tormenting
Henry over there.
How do you put a saddle stone and
some copper pipes together to
come up with something?
If you drill right through the top,
and then you feed up the copper
pipe, put it on to a pump,
it's a water feature.
It was just a moment of
inspiration or foolhardy idea.
Good luck with that.
Or delirium. Yeah, exactly.
Coming up,
Henry faces some unexpected issues.
A lot of work, mate, isn't it?
It is, yeah.
Simon hits an unexpected obstacle.
There's already some kind of
iron rod or pin in there.
Right where I want to drill.
And at the first valuation,
Derek gets some unexpected results.
My gosh. Look at that!
That one is lovely.
Reclaimers and restorers Henry Cole
and Simon O'Brien are on a mission
to turn rubbish into readies.
BELL RINGS
Dinner!
And with their final find
from Phil's engine-packed yard,
they've both gone back to their
bases and are ready restore.
In Liverpool, Simon is briefing
partner-in-crime Gemma about
the shipping light he found.
What do you think? This looks great.
So this is just elbow grease,
isn't it?
It just needs a bit of a clean
and a new bulb.
They are really trendy
at the moment, that sort of thing.
So in restaurants, even at home,
and they stand in the corner.
I think that's really good.
Simon's also brought back
a staddle stone,
but will Gemma think his idea for it
is inspired or unwise?
You'll like this.
If we drill straight down,
right the way through the middle,
put a pump on it, and you've got
water just cascading over the edge,
you've got a nice water feature for
the garden. That is a lovely idea.
I'm not liking the idea
of drilling through it, though.
I'll leave that to you.
SIMON LAUGHS
Gemma makes a start
on the ship's searchlight,
giving it a good clean
with soap and water.
A nice, easy job for a change.
You don't want use wire wool on this
because it's going to scratch
the surface.
Cleaned and polished,
next she is sourcing
a tripod stand to turn
the searchlight
into an attractive domestic lamp.
Oh, great, something just like
what we're after here.
Perfect.
But stand or no stand,
it won't be pulling in much profit
if it doesn't work.
So Gemma has called in a pro
to rewire the searchlight to
modern standards, a simple job
that most trained electricians
would happily tackle for around £60.
OK. Let's see. Ta-dah!
Oh, brilliant!
Oh, that's great.
Henry's also got two finds he hopes
will fire up Guy's imagination,
starting with his stationary engine.
Isn't that just beautiful?
It is lovely, yeah.
And we have the responsibility
of cleaning up and making it
beautiful for the next generation.
Yes.
This old engine
is missing a carburettor,
a replacement might need to be made
from scratch,
so time to call Andy the engineer
to find a solution.
The problem is, this carburettor
don't look like one.
That's a lot of work, mate,
isn't it? It is, yeah.
I mean, there's a lot missing.
The quickest and simplest thing
to do would be to machine an
adapter plate and put
a different carburettor on it.
If the engine is running,
it won't be nearly as valuable.
Andy is taking it away to work on.
The fate of this restoration
lies in his hands.
Simon is making a start
on the old staddle stone
he plans to turn into
a water feature.
Yeah. The first task is to drill
a hole right through both
pieces of the staddle stone...
Ain't no going back now.
...so a pipe can be run through,
allowing water to cascade
from the top.
But Simon's hit a snag.
HE SIGHS
There's already some kind of
iron rod or pin in there,
right where I want to drill.
Absolute nightmare.
Back on track.
Simon, what are you doing now?
China, here we come.
Simon has bought a special
one-metre-long drill bit
for less than 20 quid,
but probably not best to try this
while standing on your work bench.
With the hole drilled, a section
of hose is fed through the base.
Yes!
That's our water feed.
The two sections of staddle stones
must now line up perfectly.
Oh, brilliant.
I'm starting to believe this might
just work, you know. Good job.
And Simon finishes the water feature
with the copper piping
he also found at Phil's.
It will deliver the water through
the upper section of the stone.
Whenever you're bonding copper,
or any metal, to anything else,
make sure it is clean,
get any oxidisation off it.
To keep his pipe in place,
Simon is gluing it into the stone
using an epoxy resin that can be
bought from any DIY store.
And then, step away,
leave it overnight.
Brilliant.
It's time to turn attention back
to finishing the first finds.
The Peugeot 205 has been repaired,
MOT'd and is ready for a road test.
So Henry and Guy can't resist taking
this classic back to the '80s.
Man, this takes me back.
Doesn't it you? Yes.
Mate, this is it! All right?
THEY LAUGH
Hey!
Makes me want to be 18 again, mate.
The car is in cracking condition,
but getting it back on the road
hasn't been cheap.
Up in Liverpool, Gemma is also busy
finishing the first finds.
She is turning the old apple dryer
into a stylish set of sock drawers.
First, a woodworm treatment,
then a coat
of cornflower blue emulsion.
The drawers are finished by adding
some new handles. And it's done,
a bespoke set of sock drawers.
All done.
Not bad for an old apple dryer.
Gemma, top work.
In Oxfordshire, Guy is busy
refurbishing the clay pigeon trap
with a coat of
British racing green metal paint.
Next step, Guy attaches
the brand-new seat that he's
fashioned from wood,
and then added cork for padding.
I think the final result
kind of turned out how I expected.
It has sort of been spruced up
a bit.
I'm sure Henry and I
will have a laugh with it.
Oh, dear, that means Henry and Guy
are going to play with guns.
It is quite big. Yep.
I'll get seated.
Hopefully, Henry realises
he's aiming for the clays.
Pull.
Yes! Got it!
Well, it works, doesn't it?
Definitely.
Now we've got to sell it.
Well, they will soon know
what it is worth...
...as it is time for the first
all-important valuation.
Derek wanted help clearing out
his overfilled barns.
He is about to find out what
the boys have done with what they
found and how much cash they'll make
for a planned holiday
with the grandkids.
Good to see you, mate. Busy boys.
Oh, lovely to see you, Derek.
Well, I think we have been
a bit busy, hopefully. Have a look.
My gosh! Look at that.
I think Simon has done quite well
with those. That is fantastic.
That's really nice. That is really
nice. It does look different.
And that is amazing! My gosh.
I didn't think you could do anything
with a table apart from polish it.
I think it looks fabulous.
It's stunning, isn't it? Amazing.
Obviously, my piece de resistance
is the car. It flies.
She looks very pretty.
Yeah, she's fantastic.
MOT'd, all ready to go, basically.
All done? Yeah. Wow.
Really desirable these days. Yeah.
Yeah. How desirable, though?
Shall we find out? Well... Yeah.
Don't get my heart going. Because
we have an independent valuer.
With two decades' experience,
auction house owner Adam Partridge
can accurately value anything.
Hi, Adam, how are you?
Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.
Well, it certainly looks an
impressive collection, doesn't it?
So, congratulations. Down to the
gritty values. Go on, Adam. Come on.
Start with the table.
Starting with the table, well,
it's an imaginative transformation
of a sort of very humble Victorian
pine kitchen table, isn't it?
Simon's first item was
the woodworm ridden old pine table.
He spent £25 on paint
and decoupaging it,
and it's transformed.
Very desirable? Yeah.
Really, really desirable?
100 quid desirable.
Bah!
I understand that it is just,
you know, a shabby chic table,
but it has been done
beautifully by Gemma.
I could stretch my valuation
to 120 quid, but please don't ask
me to value it for more than that.
120 seems fair to me.
Simon has made a solid start,
tabling Derek a £95 profit.
Moving on. Yes.
One-off, unique,
apple-drying knickknack,
can we call it sock drawer,
put anything in it.
You won't see another one
anywhere. It's beautiful.
Value that.
Simon's second item
is the repurposed apple dryer.
£10 has turned it into
a set of sock drawers.
I think it's a very,
very good conversion
of what was obviously
a knackered apple-drying cabinet.
It must be worth £50
of anyone's money these days.
That went down well, didn't it(?)
So the apple dryer has made £40.
Well done. Another profit there,
40 quid for you.
OK, Derek, happy with that?
Absolutely. Brilliant.
There you go.
I'm not happy with it.
I think I might leave, actually,
before he gets to my stuff.
I'm going to get a name for myself
as being a mean person.
Come on, then, Mr Grumpy.
Nice clay pigeon trap.
Actually, I love this item.
I think it's...
Very good, very good. I really do.
Henry's first item, the clay pigeon
trap, had seen better days,
but with just £10 spent,
now it is looking as good as new.
I'm always slightly disappointed
with the prices that these
realise when we offer them
in sporting sales.
They tend to make about 80 quid.
80 quid?!
Henry was hoping to aim
a little higher,
but that's another £70
for Derek's pocket.
You're not arguing?
I've given up, mate.
Now then... Now, Adam.
A modern classic, isn't it?
Probably a rare survivor now, really.
I don't think there are
many out there.
Finally, the old Peugeot.
Henry spent a massive £1,550
getting rid of 20 years
of decay and dust.
So, can the classic car
make Derek any money?
Those are out there,
I've seen advertised, from £4,000,
even as high as £6,000 for them.
That one, in the condition it is in,
I'd go with a figure of £4,000.
It's now immaculate.
Is immaculate stretching it a bit?
I've seen the glove box.
There is an issue with that.
So at the moment,
we fully restored the glove box
with gaffer tape.
Nothing gets past Adam.
Still, that valuation nets Derek
a whopping £2,450.
If we tot up the profits there,
a grand total of £2,655.
That's not bad, is it?
It's a very useful amount of cash.
Isn't it just, mate?
Yeah.
What are you going to spend it on?
It's going towards
a little bit of a holiday.
Yeah, quite right, Derek. I would.
Taking our the grandkids
for a Christmas holiday.
Oh, that's fantastic. Brilliant.
That's the way it should be.
Cheers, Derek.
Thanks very much indeed. Well done.
Thanks, Derek. Fantastic, mate.
Thank you so much. No, thank you.
Yeah, lovely, lovely.
A successful day for Derek.
That's £2,655 that Simon and Henry
will be handing over to
his holiday fund.
Oh, I was a blown away.
I think they've done an amazing job.
I mean, some of those bits were
pretty bad when they left me.
Coming up, the good...
It works! Don't sound so surprised.
...the bad...
No, it's not got a spark.
...and the awkward.
Personally, I'm not blown away
by that, really.
Henry Cole and Simon O'Brien are on
a mission to turn rubbish
into readies.
Yes!
Simon's choice of location made
Derek Williams
over two and a half grand.
A very useful amount of cash.
Isn't it just, mate?
Competitive Henry wants them to make
even more cash for
log supplier Phil.
But his
hopes rest on a stationary engine.
It will only be worth big bucks if
it's in full working order.
Engineer Andy is having trouble
getting it going.
No, it hasn't got a spark. We'll
have to run it off the battery.
We've got more of a chance getting
it going that way.
Not great news for Henry's engine.
Hopefully, he'll have better
luck at his next stop.
He's off to see the customary
sprayers Wade and Stig and he's got
a rather novel item for
them to paint.
Morning, boys.
Yes, his fire alarm.
I know it's not a motorbike.
What do you reckon?
What can you...
Look, it's an old fire bell.
Obviously. Yeah.
I'm not coming to Wade and Stig's
just to replicate that fire bell.
Oh, no.
I want to do something funky.
Same... font.
Yeah. Yeah?
But "food alarm".
Can I leave it with you? Yeah.
And you're going to create something
incredible as always, boys.
I like that.
Wade and Stig get straight down to business,
spraying the new design onto
the fire alarm.
Back in his workshop,
Henry is also ringing the changes
on the alarm's wooden backing.
I thought I might just actually try
and buff up the original
bit of wood that it sat on.
Only because if you can use original,
with its original patina,
then that's the way forward.
I'm just using a little bit of
furniture polish.
Just work into the wood.
In Liverpool, it's the moment of
truth for Simon's staddlestone water feature.
Shall I turn on? Yeah.
SHE GASPS
It works!
Don't sound so surprised!
Yeah, it's coming over this side.
Brilliant.
With pond-water pumps available
for as little as £50,
decorative water features can be
made out of almost anything.
Back at Henry's, the stationary
engine has returned from Andy's
workshop with the new carburettor
and a battery ignition system.
Let's hope an awful lot of
its components aren't
stationary for much longer.
He has been burning the midnight
oil, I promise you.
But let's hope it goes.
Once it goes, then we can clean it
and it's ready for sale.
Come on then, are we ready for this?
The proof of the pudding is
in the winding.
STATIONARY ENGINE WHIRS
It goes! Andy, it's going!
STATIONARY ENGINE WHIRS
That is fabulous.
That is
great, isn't it? It's fantastic.
Put that round to there.
And she's going to stop.
These are the machines that
built Britain.
This is our industrial heritage,
right there in front of us.
The engine is operational.
Henry now has to hope it will also
prove profitable.
Andy, thank you so much.
No worries.
You have come up trumps.
Yeah, definitely.
In Liverpool, Gemma's wooden
tripod has arrived.
Attaching it to the old searchlight
is the final step
in creating what she hopes will be
a desirable living-room lamp.
This fits in there.
Oh, wow, that is pretty cool.
Simon is going to be impressed
when he sees it.
Henry is also repurposing
for the home.
His fire alarm has been painted up
as an unusual dinner bell and
he may already have found a buyer.
Go! Oh, my God, I love it! Can I
have a go?
FIRE BELL RINGS
Lord! Look, if you put it on the
wall like that,
your children will come running.
Brilliant! They'd come from miles.
Yeah, they will.
Henry's hands-on demonstration
has paid off and a deal is done.
Well done. Come on, put it in the
van. Fantastic.
And in Liverpool,
there is also news of a sale.
Simon? Yeah? Look.
The Searchlight's sold.
Hang on a moment.
That's good going, isn't it?
Nice one!
But did they get a good deal?
It's time to find out at
the final valuation.
Henry's choice of salvage venue was
log supplier Phil's barns.
Phil wanted to raise some cash to
help him with future
restoration projects.
Now he's about to find out if Henry
can top the £2,655
raised by Simon's search earlier.
Good to see you.
Oh. Can I have a look?
Yeah. Go and have a wander.
Go and have a wander.
Mm-hm. I'll tell you all about that
in a minute.
That's come up nice as well. It's
beautiful. Very, very nice.
Well done, Simon. Great.
Very, very nice.
I reckon you've done a marvellous
job. Very, very impressive.
It's all very well how beautiful it
is and all that type of stuff
but have we made you any money?
So to tell us that, we've got Adam,
our, alas, very independent valuer.
Come on, Adam, be nice to us!
ALL TALK AT ONCE
Lovely items.
So, Adam...
Yes. Stationary engine.
Sought-after items,
the stationary engine.
They are collectable, yes.
The 1920s stationary engine
has been motionless for decades.
Henry's got it running but
at a cost of £250.
I think these tend to go for £700 to
£800 so I'll plump for
a central figure of about £750.
Good. That's fine. Good. Yeah.
Henry is off to a flying start,
pulling in a £500 profit for Phil.
Moving along to my dinner alarm,
Adam. It's beautiful.
It's been sprayed by one of the
greatest custom motorcycle
tank painters in the world.
Henry's turned
a rusty old fire alarm into
a shiny one-off dinner alarm.
But this transformation has
set him back £250.
Really lovely item.
Lots of people would like to own
that but it looks like
a lot of money has been spent on it.
I'd be struggling to see it making
more than maybe 300 quid
or thereabouts.
What do you think?
Well, actually, I flogged it.
Well done. And I flogged it for 350. Good.
Henry's bit of business
has picked up another £100 for Phil.
If you look at it, you've
got 100 quid from something that was
in the barn really doing nothing.
Yeah, that's right. That's fine.
The money was well spent.
You could have just hand-painted it
but you stepped up
to the mark there,
really pushed the boat out, and
you've still made money. Cheers.
OK. Happy with that.
Come on then, Adam.
Give it to me. Light up my life.
Simon's first item, an old ship's
searchlight, has been transformed
into a freestanding living room lamp
for a cost of £225.
That's a lovely thing. What you've
done with it is really good as well.
I think I'd probably
put £300-£500 on it.
Do you know what?
That's what I've sold it for.
You have sold it?
It's sold, mate. 500 quid.
Private buyer.
Oh, yes, it's gone, mate.
A glowing result for Simon,
making another 275 quid for Phil.
Staddlestone. Personally, I'm not
blown away by that.
It's unremarkable to me, really.
I've really offended him!
The old staddlestone is now a
working water feature. After
spending £50,
Simon will be hoping his inventive
idea will turn Phil a tidy profit.
How much is it worth, not with the
water feature?
200 quid. 200 to 300.
How much is it worth after all my
hard work turning into
a unique, one-off...
200 to 300.
HE LAUGHS
I'm sorry, mate!
You're not serious?!
I am serious! It's unremarkable to
me, really. Sorry!
A bitter blow.
Simon's hard work hasn't added a penny
to the £300 value of the staddlestone.
The £50 he spent has
reduced Phil's profit to 250 quid.
In total, you'll put in your
pocket, 1,125 quid.
Sounds very good.
Brilliant. Thanks very much.
A joy, as always, mate.
Phil, you haven't got a pond, have
you?
I have, actually.
Have you?
I think that would spoil it.
You're not going to sell it back to
him! It wouldn't spoil it!
Henry's choice of location
as earned Phil £1,125.
It's nice to see the items now that
they have been restored.
The lads come over and get them
running. It's good.
Phil's more than a
grand to the good.
But with £2,655 profit,
it's Simon's choice,
Derek and his barns, that's made
serious money.
HE SIGHS
Yes, well, happy days.
Yeah. You look very happy.
I am, mate. Why? You lost. What?
In my place, Derek's lovely old
location, what a gorgeous place,
that was that I picked,
we made the most money.
£2,655.
What was the majority of that?
That car that was there. Yeah.
That I knew was there and that's why
we went there. 1,125 quid.
Phil is well happy with that.
So he should be.
Derek is well happy.
And I should have won it.
Once more we found the gold amongst
the old. That's what we do well.
Exactly, mate.
And what I do well, is win.
Subtitles by Ericsson
The homes of Britain are stacked
with old possessions.
I'll tell you what. Look at that.
That's lovely.
What looks like junk can actually
be worth a pretty penny.
What could you use that for?
I've never seen anything like that
in my life before.
Henry Cole and Simon O'Brien
are here to help turn that clutter
into hard cash.
We can get serious money for that.
£100,000? Yeah.
Upcycling genius, Simon...
That looks cool.
...and his restorer love turning
everyday objects
into fantastic furniture.
Gemma...
Come on!
Absolutely winner.
You've got to slot it in. Hang on.
Whilst for Henry and his mechanic...
That is absolutely stunning, Guy.
It's all about restoring retro
relics and vintage classics.
ENGINE ROARS
She's off!
It runs.
Despite their differences,
they always come good
and they'll turn a tidy profit
for their owners.
You're going to put
in your pocket
£10,630.
Absolutely brilliant.
Today...
Pull!
Henry's shooting for the stars.
Yay!
Prepare to be amazed.
Simon's come
down to earth with a bump.
Don't tell me you're looking
at the bumper car.
I'm looking at the bumper car,
look at it!
And one of Henry's sales
has the alarm bells ringing.
Oh, my God, I love it!
BELL RINGS
I only found out the other day what
the word shed comes from.
Go on?
It comes from an Anglo-Saxon
word for shade,
shud. Seriously? Yeah.
Henry and Simon are on the road
and their search
for hidden treasure has brought them
to Wiltshire,
home of crop circles,
Stonehenge and a lot of soldiers.
Wiltshire is an enormous MoD place.
Thousands of acres are given
over to the MoD.
Is that what it's famous for
military stuff? It really is.
With that in mind,
let battle commence.
Both boys get to choose
a candidate for
a clear out and Simon's up first.
We're going to see
a lovely fellow called Derek.
I hope he's got some nice
stuff, mate,
because I know about your sheds.
Listen, even as we approach this
place, you're going to love it.
This house has got a better
thatch than you!
LAUGHS LOUDLY
Honestly? It must be good.
Honestly, yeah.
Yes, Henry's thatch is not a patch
on this 16th-century farmhouse.
It's home to Derek, a retired film
editor and with three barns
he's never needed to throw away
any family possessions.
The barns are full of old cars
and bits of machinery.
It's accumulated over the years.
Doting grandad Derek wants to raise
some money from his rubbish
to take his grandkids on holiday.
To have anybody turning junk into
something that's a useful item,
it's got to be good.
I'm quite keen for them to do it.
Let's go and meet Derek.
Go and meet Derek.
Hi. How are you?
I'm fine, how are you.
I think I've found paradise.
Hello, I'm Henry, how are you?
Hi, Henry. Welcome to Wiltshire.
How long have you been here?
30 years.
That's music to our ears because, if
you've been here 30 years,
that means you've accumulated
some stuff in that time.
Other things, as well.
There is a little bit. Is there?
There is a few bits of junk out
there you might find interesting.
He calls it junk. Yeah, I know.
But it's not.
There is junk. There's junk and
there is junk, Derek.
Well...
OK, jackets off. Be my guest.
CHUCKLES
As ever, Henry and Simon need to
find two items each today.
They may choose anything that they
can add value to,
sell on and return Derek
a tidy profit.
Oh, yes, please.
All right, we've done well.
Where others see junk,
Henry spies potential.
Now I'm completely exhausted.
Blimey, how many more of those?
Have you got any more down there?
Here we go.
That's actually smarted you up.
Has it? Yeah.
And Henry's new look soon inspires
them to uncover what could
well be his first find of the day.
Simon? Yes.
This is my all-time love.
What? It's a clay pigeon trap.
That's something I've always
wanted to tinker with,
fettle and basically put some clays
in it and have some fun with it.
Clay pigeon shooting is an Olympic
sport and, with over 500 clubs
in the UK,
this is a potentially popular piece.
So you put that in there like
that... Yeah.
You pull it back like that. Yeah.
Then you kind of let go.
Go on, then.
It's worth a look, though,
because you don't see one of
these every day.
I do, actually. You don't.
Not in the back streets of
Liverpool, mate.
There is a market for that
kind of stuff.
If it's stopping anyone going to
shoot anything, I'm up for it.
He's claimed the clay pigeon trap
as his first piece.
Get out of the way!
What are you doing?
And motor mad Henry may have found
something else
that's right up his street.
Hello.
Spirit Of Ecstasy, what does
that mean?
It's a Rolls-Royce.
Who has a Rolls-Royce
in their shed?
Just sitting there?
Extraordinary.
CHUCKLES
That's it, look, that. Hey?
I don't particularly like them.
It's a Rolls-Royce!
I know but I find them relatively ostentatious.
Yes, it's a Rolls-Royce!
For some reason, people think, Simon
being one of them,
that any Rolls-Royce as long as it's
got that Spirit Of Ecstasy
and it's got the Rolls-Royce brand
on it, it's worth serious money.
Er, wrong.
Despite their reputation,
old Rolls Royces don't
necessarily make big money.
A new model might cost £100,000
but you can pick up a working,
clean 30-year-old one
for under 10,000.
This is the only time I've ever
sat in a Rolls-Royce.
And it's probably going to be the
last time, as well, really. Eh?
Thank you, O'Brien.
We're here, Sir.
Are we here at Sloane Square,
or not?
Ah!
Cleethorpes!
A rummage reveals that
as well as a relic Rolls,
this barn is hiding some slightly
perished pine.
Oh, hello.
I like that.
That is gorgeous, isn't it?
For once in my life,
I agree with you.
Despite its condition, Simon's
convinced that this table could be
restored and make
a bit of cash for Derek.
So it's pine. Yeah.
A little bit of woodworm.
No problem. Really?
It doesn't do that much damage,
just a little bit like this.
I would quite happily have that
in my dining room.
I have something very
similar as it is.
Except this one might be slightly
nicer so maybe I'll...
No, no, no, I will...
It's for Derek.
I'll sell it for Derek.
So Simon's taking the table and the
boys have one item each.
Let's delve deeper. Delve deeper.
And amongst the barn clutter
a strange wooden contraption has
caught Simon's eye.
Look at this gorgeous thing.
You pick your apples and you
store them in the rack.
How about them apples?
Because they've got the slats,
it keeps the air moving around
so they don't rot.
Stand it upright.
Henry's not convinced that this is
a potentially profitable piece.
It looks quite home-made, Simon.
This, of all of the things we've
seen in here,
is the apple of my eye.
THEY LAUGH
I don't know why,
some things just catch your eye.
It just looks like
a lovely kind of storage thing.
A proper inspection and the penny's
dropped, even for Henry.
BOTH: Sock drawer.
You know it, mate,
See, it's going well today,
isn't it?
Mate, I'm having a ball. Yeah.
That's Simon's second item sorted
and Henry's just spotted
an '80s icon.
Do you actually know what
this car is?
I know exactly what this car is.
Go on, then.
This is a Peugeot 205 GTi.
The inside is mint. Is it?
In really good nick.
It does look nice.
This particular Peugeot
dates back to 1987.
The 205 was a classic hot hatch
and the 1.9 GTi
was the fastest and most
desirable model of the lot.
The very last car I ever had was
a 205 GTi.
I'm just in shock.
I don't know how you exist.
I have to tell you I have not seen
a Peugeot 205 GTi in that
condition, ever, in a barn.
The good news is the clock's
working.
The cassette box looks lovely still.
You spend all that money on a car...
What impressed me,
the tape cassette holder.
MUSIC PLAYS
Hang on, that is quite '80s.
Is that a cassette that's playing?
No.
No, that's on the radio.
It only picks up '80s stations.
Does it?
But at the moment the clock and the
radio is about all the works.
Henry's Rover and jump leads
should help.
Just try it one more time. OK.
Oh...
OK, it didn't go but it will.
The bodywork and the interior
is just absolutely mint.
We've just got to get it going.
It may be poorly but the 205 is
a favourite among passionate
Peugeot collectors,
so Henry's taking it.
The boys now have two items each
but will Derek think their haul
has a chance of turning him
a profit?
Now you're not going to make much
money on this but I thought
it would be quite fun to have
a little clay trap to deal with.
Fine, I think you're right
and I go with it. Good, good.
But there is one item that isn't
here and that is the
Peugeot 205 GTi that I would
love to take away.
Absolutely. And hopefully make
some money on for you.
It would nice to see it working
again. Oh, good. Fantastic.
Now we'll move onto my items. Mm-hm.
First of all,
I just love this old table.
It's yours. It's a fabulous item.
Then perhaps my surprise choice.
A little apple drier. Yeah.
Which is very nice.
THEY LAUGH
Come on. OK.
Now tell me what you really think.
I'm sure you'll make something
of it. CHUCKLES
Thank you very much.
Cheers now.
Coming up... rigorous restorations.
All this dust that's coming off,
that's surface corrosion.
Inspirational ideas...
It's going to be
a complete one-off,
no-one's going to have
a table like this.
And, at the second search,
there's an alarming discovery.
BELL RINGS
Cor, blimey!
You're going to hear
that from a distance.
Expert up-cyclers Henry Cole and
Simon O'Brien are turning trash into cash.
BOTH: Sock drawer.
And they're ready to begin their
first restorations.
Simon is back in his home in Liverpool,
showing off what he has sourced.
I found this.
Yeah. Now, it's just...
...lovely, isn't it? It is.
Fine art graduate Gemma runs her own
arts and crafts business.
I'm going to get you to prepare your
furniture and we'll get
a top layer on as well today.
Her recycling and upcycling
workshops sell out as people bring
in their old furniture and part with
new skills and rejuvenated homeware.
The big difference between Gemma and
I - she seems to be much more
measured about stuff.
So I think in that way we complement
each other very well.
He's sort of like my big brother.
If we just give it a clean up and
a polish,
it's good to go, isn't it?
Simon's saying just sand it down
and keep it as it is.
Where's the fun in that?
I could work my magic on this, Simon.
We're here to restore things.
I want to make that colourful.
I'm going to make it really good.
Loads of bright paint on it.
Loads of flowers. Simon'll be sorry
he ever brought that back.
Gemma's taking charge.
Let's hope she's just as excited
about the next item.
If she can work out what it is.
I've never seen anything like it.
It's an apple drying rack. Yeah.
Simon plans to repurpose this
apple dryer into
a storage unit for clothes and
accessories. Socks, ties... Exactly.
All sorts. No, I like this. Yeah.
Nice little handles on it. OK. Yeah.
Gemma starts by tackling the table.
After treating it for woodworm,
she then sands down the rough
and damaged edges and adds a primer
to prepare it for painting.
This is looking better already.
Back home in Oxfordshire, Henry
has got two treats in store for
his restoration expert, Guy Wilson.
Guy is a master of all things mechanical.
Guy and I have known each other
since we were 15.
So I know him probably better than I
know anybody on this planet.
And Henry has brought him two very
different machines for him to
work his magic on.
First up, that old clay pigeon trap.
What is that? Ah!
Well, it looks homemade
except that bit there.
We're not going to make Derek much
money, are we? No.
But other than that, really,
we'll just make it serviceable.
Oil it up and have a laugh with it.
Yeah, definitely.
OK, shall we go on to something much
more interesting? Go on, then.
I mean, what does that say to you?
It just takes me back to my youth.
Does it? And I have quite fond
memories of these,
even though I've never
actually been in one.
It may look rubbish right now,
but you and I can see how beautiful
this is going to be.
It's surprisingly good, actually.
We're going to give it a once-over,
change all the fluids, new battery.
I can't wait to drive it.
No, it'll be fantastic.
No self-respecting boy racer would
be seen in the Peugeot in
this state.
So for Guy, it's out with the jet
wash and off with the 30 years of
grime, inside and out.
He's using a light cutting compound
that you can get from most
car outlets to remove the oxidised
paint from the surface and
then waxes to protect the fresh
paint beneath.
The Peugeot is now looking pristine,
but all of Guy's hard work
will be wasted if
he and Henry can't get it to start.
Back in Liverpool, Gemma is
continuing the work on that
pine table.
Stripped pine could fetch
good money,
but making this one as good as new
would be impossible.
So painting is going to make
the most profit.
I'm sure Simon'll think that I've
gone for magnolia.
But it's actually rice cake.
Very shabby chic.
But a coat of paint is just the
start of this transformation.
She's using a technique
called decoupage.
That's cutting stuff out
to you and I.
I completely underestimated how long
this would take me to do.
Decoupage is an effective and
inexpensive way to transform
old objects, and it can be done with
almost any type of paper or
flat material. It's going to be a
complete one-off.
No-one's going to have
a table like this.
The last step is to put
a varnish on.
Which'll protect the paper.
You'll be able to put water on it, then.
So it makes it more hard-wearing.
Gemma's managed to quickly breathe
new life into this old table.
Simon will be impressed. Touch wood.
In Oxfordshire...
Now, mate,
you are the king of polishing.
That has transformed it completely.
The classic Peugeot is still
a non-runner.
Henry's hoping mechanics Colin and
Greg can save the day without
breaking the bank.
Have you had a cursory look
under the bonnet?
I've had a quick look, yeah.
And we've got
a few bits for it that it needs.
Oh, blimey, boys.
That looks a lot of stuff.
Derek's barn may have kept the
Peugeot's bodywork in good nick,
but 20 years off the road means many
perishable items such as
rubber belts and hoses need
to be replaced.
And all at a cost.
OK, so basically what we've got is
a car that really needs
a good going through cos it's
been sitting around.
Yeah. Yeah?
All these new parts could
potentially drain the profit
Henry's meant to be making
for owner Derek.
Yep, it goes.
Not bad after 20 years.
The engine is up and running, but to
play it safe, new brakes are a must.
And replacing them means yet
more expense.
Fortunately, the clay pigeon trap
should be less of
a money pit as Guy's doing
the work himself.
This seat... I'm going to just try
and make another seat out of
a bit of pine I've got lying around, actually.
And then clean it up and prep
it for painting,
cos it looks a bit of a sorry mess.
The old seats and the foam
backrest are discarded.
The dust and feathers removed,
and the metal work sanded.
This is Scotch-Brite, just for
getting the loose debris off
the poles, cos you don't want it on
there when you paint them.
All this dust that's coming off,
that's just surface corrosion.
If you get this off,
the paint'll stick to it better.
With restorations from
Derek's well under way...
...it's time for the boy's
second search.
I'm telling you,
you're going to love this man.
And now it's Henry's turn to choose.
Do you know what? I'm liking it
already, I have to say.
He's sticking to home turf and
has dragged Simon down to
Oxfordshire to meet his old mate,
Phil Cherry.
For work, Phil supplies logs,
but for play, he collects.
I collect virtually anything old, basically.
Petrol cans, oil cans,
stationary engines... And the rest.
Dodgems, phone boxes,
even mannequins.
But after 40 years of collecting,
he's decided it's time to downsize
to help raise cash for his
real passion,
restoring old steam rollers.
If they can make a bit of money for
me, great.
Hi, Phil. This is Simon.
Hi, Simon. How are you?
Very pleased to meet you. And you.
How are you, mate? What an amazing
place, Phil. Thank you.
Tell me about it.
Well, we've been here 40 years and I
started collecting then and
it's just gone on from there.
I tell you what, mate.
This is just the start of it.
Let me tell you.
Now, then. Prepare to be amazed.
I am duly amazed.
As usual, the boys need to find two
items each from Phil's
well-filled yard.
Don't tell me you're looking
at the bumper car.
I am looking at the bumper car.
Look at it!
You don't come across them
every day, do you?
That is a good point.
Immediately, to me it says,
you know,
this is a kid's PlayStation in
a bedroom.
It's a bumper car.
That's right, yeah.
He's surrounded by automotive beauty
and he looks at something
that's a bit of plastic with
a mannequin sitting in it.
Would you be taking the
mannequin with it?
Well, I don't know.
I'd have to have a word with Phil.
He's been trying to get rid of her
for years, thanks very much.
If it had been in a little bit
better nick, I'd have gone
straight for the dodgem car,
but as it was, I dodged it.
But Henry's not about to dodge what
he's just stumbled upon.
Now, then, I have a secret pleasure,
mate, which is stationary engines.
This is a 1920s stationary engine,
which would have been used as
a factory power supply.
They would be in factories, yeah?
Or warehouses and they would power
water pumps, generators,
all that kind of stuff,
and that one is lovely.
Might get a couple of hundred quid
for that. You reckon?
Yeah. If I get it going.
And that's the problem right there.
It needs a new carburettor and you
can't just pick up one of
those from the spares shop.
So that needs to go on there somewhere.
Yeah, that could be nice.
A mere trifling problem there,
but Henry's not deterred.
He's bagged his first item.
Listen, I'm wandering off.
I'll leave you to it.
I've only just started.
Now, that's more like it.
He's disappeared again. To do what?
To look at a bit of copper pipe.
I thought there'd be this kind of
stuff laying round.
What he's going to do with that
copper pipe I have no idea.
But Simon is about to stumble upon
a plan for that piping.
Hello.
Where are you going?
Now we're talking.
What, you and
a toadstool and fairies?
Well, you see these everywhere,
don't you?
Yeah. What are they, staddle stones?
They are staddle stones.
Staddle stones were used to raise
grain stores off the ground
to protect the harvest from being
eaten by rodents.
But Simon has a more
outlandish idea for them.
I'm starting to put these
together... Yeah?
...with some copper pipe.
Come on.
Copper pipe? Yeah.
Have you gone barking mad?
Simon's staddle stone and copper
pipe plan means the boys have now
one project each.
And their next stop is
a super-size shed.
You've got an idea cos the shed's
quite high. It's a big shed.
Have a lookee.
When we met Josephine, well, I fell
in love with her, I have to say.
Come and tell Simon all about it, hey?
Well, it's a 1906 seven horse single
cylinder Garrett traction engine.
It's a beautifully built thing,
isn't it?
Even though it was just
a work-a-day...
They all were, though, weren't they?
All the Victorian stuff and that
era were all nicely made.
Am I right in saying that, like, 50
years ago they were worthless? Yeah.
60 years ago. Really?
Nobody wanted them, did they? It was
just scrap.
Yeah. Would you tell
me a value now or not?
Enough. Round about 100, 120 grand.
Really? Something like that.
So my idea about re-purposing it
into a bookshelf isn't...
Not really, it'd be a very expensive
bookshelf. It was just a thought.
Phil's not about to part with
his pride and joy,
so his final shed will need to
provide plenty.
We're in here.
Yes, please! Hello, hello.
Wow. Aladdin's cave.
BUZZER
Was that...
Honestly, mate, was that the curry?
If you were going to create the
perfect little shed with all
little knickknacks to mooch around
in, that's it.
This is a collection, isn't it?
It's just a collection of lovely
things. Yeah. For sure. It is.
Simon found something that I had my
eye on straight away.
It's a search light off the front of
a boat, isn't it?
Is it? Yeah. I think just purpose
that up, get it working.
That's gorgeous, isn't it?
And hot on Simon's heels,
Henry's spotted something too.
Are you ready?
BELL RINGS
Cor blimey. You're going to hear
that from distance.
It'd be the perfect thing for
a large country house that
has someone to ring the
bell for lunch. Dinner!
I'm loving that.
Simon's search light and Henry's
bell bring an end to this trawl.
They've both chosen two items each,
but will owner Phil think they've
got potentially profitable picks?
Hopefully what you see before you,
we can take away.
Now, on my side of things, obviously
the little stationary engine there.
Yeah. Give that a trundle,
hopefully. Yeah.
And we might get some nice
money for that. Good.
And then the fire alarm,
don't be alarmed,
but I think that'll clean up and be
a nice decorative item.
Yeah, I can see that, yeah.
Over my side, I mean, I just love
this lamp and I think,
probably mounted,
that's just going to make
a gorgeous lamp.
Now, then, I've been tormenting
Henry over there.
How do you put a saddle stone and
some copper pipes together to
come up with something?
If you drill right through the top,
and then you feed up the copper
pipe, put it on to a pump,
it's a water feature.
It was just a moment of
inspiration or foolhardy idea.
Good luck with that.
Or delirium. Yeah, exactly.
Coming up,
Henry faces some unexpected issues.
A lot of work, mate, isn't it?
It is, yeah.
Simon hits an unexpected obstacle.
There's already some kind of
iron rod or pin in there.
Right where I want to drill.
And at the first valuation,
Derek gets some unexpected results.
My gosh. Look at that!
That one is lovely.
Reclaimers and restorers Henry Cole
and Simon O'Brien are on a mission
to turn rubbish into readies.
BELL RINGS
Dinner!
And with their final find
from Phil's engine-packed yard,
they've both gone back to their
bases and are ready restore.
In Liverpool, Simon is briefing
partner-in-crime Gemma about
the shipping light he found.
What do you think? This looks great.
So this is just elbow grease,
isn't it?
It just needs a bit of a clean
and a new bulb.
They are really trendy
at the moment, that sort of thing.
So in restaurants, even at home,
and they stand in the corner.
I think that's really good.
Simon's also brought back
a staddle stone,
but will Gemma think his idea for it
is inspired or unwise?
You'll like this.
If we drill straight down,
right the way through the middle,
put a pump on it, and you've got
water just cascading over the edge,
you've got a nice water feature for
the garden. That is a lovely idea.
I'm not liking the idea
of drilling through it, though.
I'll leave that to you.
SIMON LAUGHS
Gemma makes a start
on the ship's searchlight,
giving it a good clean
with soap and water.
A nice, easy job for a change.
You don't want use wire wool on this
because it's going to scratch
the surface.
Cleaned and polished,
next she is sourcing
a tripod stand to turn
the searchlight
into an attractive domestic lamp.
Oh, great, something just like
what we're after here.
Perfect.
But stand or no stand,
it won't be pulling in much profit
if it doesn't work.
So Gemma has called in a pro
to rewire the searchlight to
modern standards, a simple job
that most trained electricians
would happily tackle for around £60.
OK. Let's see. Ta-dah!
Oh, brilliant!
Oh, that's great.
Henry's also got two finds he hopes
will fire up Guy's imagination,
starting with his stationary engine.
Isn't that just beautiful?
It is lovely, yeah.
And we have the responsibility
of cleaning up and making it
beautiful for the next generation.
Yes.
This old engine
is missing a carburettor,
a replacement might need to be made
from scratch,
so time to call Andy the engineer
to find a solution.
The problem is, this carburettor
don't look like one.
That's a lot of work, mate,
isn't it? It is, yeah.
I mean, there's a lot missing.
The quickest and simplest thing
to do would be to machine an
adapter plate and put
a different carburettor on it.
If the engine is running,
it won't be nearly as valuable.
Andy is taking it away to work on.
The fate of this restoration
lies in his hands.
Simon is making a start
on the old staddle stone
he plans to turn into
a water feature.
Yeah. The first task is to drill
a hole right through both
pieces of the staddle stone...
Ain't no going back now.
...so a pipe can be run through,
allowing water to cascade
from the top.
But Simon's hit a snag.
HE SIGHS
There's already some kind of
iron rod or pin in there,
right where I want to drill.
Absolute nightmare.
Back on track.
Simon, what are you doing now?
China, here we come.
Simon has bought a special
one-metre-long drill bit
for less than 20 quid,
but probably not best to try this
while standing on your work bench.
With the hole drilled, a section
of hose is fed through the base.
Yes!
That's our water feed.
The two sections of staddle stones
must now line up perfectly.
Oh, brilliant.
I'm starting to believe this might
just work, you know. Good job.
And Simon finishes the water feature
with the copper piping
he also found at Phil's.
It will deliver the water through
the upper section of the stone.
Whenever you're bonding copper,
or any metal, to anything else,
make sure it is clean,
get any oxidisation off it.
To keep his pipe in place,
Simon is gluing it into the stone
using an epoxy resin that can be
bought from any DIY store.
And then, step away,
leave it overnight.
Brilliant.
It's time to turn attention back
to finishing the first finds.
The Peugeot 205 has been repaired,
MOT'd and is ready for a road test.
So Henry and Guy can't resist taking
this classic back to the '80s.
Man, this takes me back.
Doesn't it you? Yes.
Mate, this is it! All right?
THEY LAUGH
Hey!
Makes me want to be 18 again, mate.
The car is in cracking condition,
but getting it back on the road
hasn't been cheap.
Up in Liverpool, Gemma is also busy
finishing the first finds.
She is turning the old apple dryer
into a stylish set of sock drawers.
First, a woodworm treatment,
then a coat
of cornflower blue emulsion.
The drawers are finished by adding
some new handles. And it's done,
a bespoke set of sock drawers.
All done.
Not bad for an old apple dryer.
Gemma, top work.
In Oxfordshire, Guy is busy
refurbishing the clay pigeon trap
with a coat of
British racing green metal paint.
Next step, Guy attaches
the brand-new seat that he's
fashioned from wood,
and then added cork for padding.
I think the final result
kind of turned out how I expected.
It has sort of been spruced up
a bit.
I'm sure Henry and I
will have a laugh with it.
Oh, dear, that means Henry and Guy
are going to play with guns.
It is quite big. Yep.
I'll get seated.
Hopefully, Henry realises
he's aiming for the clays.
Pull.
Yes! Got it!
Well, it works, doesn't it?
Definitely.
Now we've got to sell it.
Well, they will soon know
what it is worth...
...as it is time for the first
all-important valuation.
Derek wanted help clearing out
his overfilled barns.
He is about to find out what
the boys have done with what they
found and how much cash they'll make
for a planned holiday
with the grandkids.
Good to see you, mate. Busy boys.
Oh, lovely to see you, Derek.
Well, I think we have been
a bit busy, hopefully. Have a look.
My gosh! Look at that.
I think Simon has done quite well
with those. That is fantastic.
That's really nice. That is really
nice. It does look different.
And that is amazing! My gosh.
I didn't think you could do anything
with a table apart from polish it.
I think it looks fabulous.
It's stunning, isn't it? Amazing.
Obviously, my piece de resistance
is the car. It flies.
She looks very pretty.
Yeah, she's fantastic.
MOT'd, all ready to go, basically.
All done? Yeah. Wow.
Really desirable these days. Yeah.
Yeah. How desirable, though?
Shall we find out? Well... Yeah.
Don't get my heart going. Because
we have an independent valuer.
With two decades' experience,
auction house owner Adam Partridge
can accurately value anything.
Hi, Adam, how are you?
Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you.
Well, it certainly looks an
impressive collection, doesn't it?
So, congratulations. Down to the
gritty values. Go on, Adam. Come on.
Start with the table.
Starting with the table, well,
it's an imaginative transformation
of a sort of very humble Victorian
pine kitchen table, isn't it?
Simon's first item was
the woodworm ridden old pine table.
He spent £25 on paint
and decoupaging it,
and it's transformed.
Very desirable? Yeah.
Really, really desirable?
100 quid desirable.
Bah!
I understand that it is just,
you know, a shabby chic table,
but it has been done
beautifully by Gemma.
I could stretch my valuation
to 120 quid, but please don't ask
me to value it for more than that.
120 seems fair to me.
Simon has made a solid start,
tabling Derek a £95 profit.
Moving on. Yes.
One-off, unique,
apple-drying knickknack,
can we call it sock drawer,
put anything in it.
You won't see another one
anywhere. It's beautiful.
Value that.
Simon's second item
is the repurposed apple dryer.
£10 has turned it into
a set of sock drawers.
I think it's a very,
very good conversion
of what was obviously
a knackered apple-drying cabinet.
It must be worth £50
of anyone's money these days.
That went down well, didn't it(?)
So the apple dryer has made £40.
Well done. Another profit there,
40 quid for you.
OK, Derek, happy with that?
Absolutely. Brilliant.
There you go.
I'm not happy with it.
I think I might leave, actually,
before he gets to my stuff.
I'm going to get a name for myself
as being a mean person.
Come on, then, Mr Grumpy.
Nice clay pigeon trap.
Actually, I love this item.
I think it's...
Very good, very good. I really do.
Henry's first item, the clay pigeon
trap, had seen better days,
but with just £10 spent,
now it is looking as good as new.
I'm always slightly disappointed
with the prices that these
realise when we offer them
in sporting sales.
They tend to make about 80 quid.
80 quid?!
Henry was hoping to aim
a little higher,
but that's another £70
for Derek's pocket.
You're not arguing?
I've given up, mate.
Now then... Now, Adam.
A modern classic, isn't it?
Probably a rare survivor now, really.
I don't think there are
many out there.
Finally, the old Peugeot.
Henry spent a massive £1,550
getting rid of 20 years
of decay and dust.
So, can the classic car
make Derek any money?
Those are out there,
I've seen advertised, from £4,000,
even as high as £6,000 for them.
That one, in the condition it is in,
I'd go with a figure of £4,000.
It's now immaculate.
Is immaculate stretching it a bit?
I've seen the glove box.
There is an issue with that.
So at the moment,
we fully restored the glove box
with gaffer tape.
Nothing gets past Adam.
Still, that valuation nets Derek
a whopping £2,450.
If we tot up the profits there,
a grand total of £2,655.
That's not bad, is it?
It's a very useful amount of cash.
Isn't it just, mate?
Yeah.
What are you going to spend it on?
It's going towards
a little bit of a holiday.
Yeah, quite right, Derek. I would.
Taking our the grandkids
for a Christmas holiday.
Oh, that's fantastic. Brilliant.
That's the way it should be.
Cheers, Derek.
Thanks very much indeed. Well done.
Thanks, Derek. Fantastic, mate.
Thank you so much. No, thank you.
Yeah, lovely, lovely.
A successful day for Derek.
That's £2,655 that Simon and Henry
will be handing over to
his holiday fund.
Oh, I was a blown away.
I think they've done an amazing job.
I mean, some of those bits were
pretty bad when they left me.
Coming up, the good...
It works! Don't sound so surprised.
...the bad...
No, it's not got a spark.
...and the awkward.
Personally, I'm not blown away
by that, really.
Henry Cole and Simon O'Brien are on
a mission to turn rubbish
into readies.
Yes!
Simon's choice of location made
Derek Williams
over two and a half grand.
A very useful amount of cash.
Isn't it just, mate?
Competitive Henry wants them to make
even more cash for
log supplier Phil.
But his
hopes rest on a stationary engine.
It will only be worth big bucks if
it's in full working order.
Engineer Andy is having trouble
getting it going.
No, it hasn't got a spark. We'll
have to run it off the battery.
We've got more of a chance getting
it going that way.
Not great news for Henry's engine.
Hopefully, he'll have better
luck at his next stop.
He's off to see the customary
sprayers Wade and Stig and he's got
a rather novel item for
them to paint.
Morning, boys.
Yes, his fire alarm.
I know it's not a motorbike.
What do you reckon?
What can you...
Look, it's an old fire bell.
Obviously. Yeah.
I'm not coming to Wade and Stig's
just to replicate that fire bell.
Oh, no.
I want to do something funky.
Same... font.
Yeah. Yeah?
But "food alarm".
Can I leave it with you? Yeah.
And you're going to create something
incredible as always, boys.
I like that.
Wade and Stig get straight down to business,
spraying the new design onto
the fire alarm.
Back in his workshop,
Henry is also ringing the changes
on the alarm's wooden backing.
I thought I might just actually try
and buff up the original
bit of wood that it sat on.
Only because if you can use original,
with its original patina,
then that's the way forward.
I'm just using a little bit of
furniture polish.
Just work into the wood.
In Liverpool, it's the moment of
truth for Simon's staddlestone water feature.
Shall I turn on? Yeah.
SHE GASPS
It works!
Don't sound so surprised!
Yeah, it's coming over this side.
Brilliant.
With pond-water pumps available
for as little as £50,
decorative water features can be
made out of almost anything.
Back at Henry's, the stationary
engine has returned from Andy's
workshop with the new carburettor
and a battery ignition system.
Let's hope an awful lot of
its components aren't
stationary for much longer.
He has been burning the midnight
oil, I promise you.
But let's hope it goes.
Once it goes, then we can clean it
and it's ready for sale.
Come on then, are we ready for this?
The proof of the pudding is
in the winding.
STATIONARY ENGINE WHIRS
It goes! Andy, it's going!
STATIONARY ENGINE WHIRS
That is fabulous.
That is
great, isn't it? It's fantastic.
Put that round to there.
And she's going to stop.
These are the machines that
built Britain.
This is our industrial heritage,
right there in front of us.
The engine is operational.
Henry now has to hope it will also
prove profitable.
Andy, thank you so much.
No worries.
You have come up trumps.
Yeah, definitely.
In Liverpool, Gemma's wooden
tripod has arrived.
Attaching it to the old searchlight
is the final step
in creating what she hopes will be
a desirable living-room lamp.
This fits in there.
Oh, wow, that is pretty cool.
Simon is going to be impressed
when he sees it.
Henry is also repurposing
for the home.
His fire alarm has been painted up
as an unusual dinner bell and
he may already have found a buyer.
Go! Oh, my God, I love it! Can I
have a go?
FIRE BELL RINGS
Lord! Look, if you put it on the
wall like that,
your children will come running.
Brilliant! They'd come from miles.
Yeah, they will.
Henry's hands-on demonstration
has paid off and a deal is done.
Well done. Come on, put it in the
van. Fantastic.
And in Liverpool,
there is also news of a sale.
Simon? Yeah? Look.
The Searchlight's sold.
Hang on a moment.
That's good going, isn't it?
Nice one!
But did they get a good deal?
It's time to find out at
the final valuation.
Henry's choice of salvage venue was
log supplier Phil's barns.
Phil wanted to raise some cash to
help him with future
restoration projects.
Now he's about to find out if Henry
can top the £2,655
raised by Simon's search earlier.
Good to see you.
Oh. Can I have a look?
Yeah. Go and have a wander.
Go and have a wander.
Mm-hm. I'll tell you all about that
in a minute.
That's come up nice as well. It's
beautiful. Very, very nice.
Well done, Simon. Great.
Very, very nice.
I reckon you've done a marvellous
job. Very, very impressive.
It's all very well how beautiful it
is and all that type of stuff
but have we made you any money?
So to tell us that, we've got Adam,
our, alas, very independent valuer.
Come on, Adam, be nice to us!
ALL TALK AT ONCE
Lovely items.
So, Adam...
Yes. Stationary engine.
Sought-after items,
the stationary engine.
They are collectable, yes.
The 1920s stationary engine
has been motionless for decades.
Henry's got it running but
at a cost of £250.
I think these tend to go for £700 to
£800 so I'll plump for
a central figure of about £750.
Good. That's fine. Good. Yeah.
Henry is off to a flying start,
pulling in a £500 profit for Phil.
Moving along to my dinner alarm,
Adam. It's beautiful.
It's been sprayed by one of the
greatest custom motorcycle
tank painters in the world.
Henry's turned
a rusty old fire alarm into
a shiny one-off dinner alarm.
But this transformation has
set him back £250.
Really lovely item.
Lots of people would like to own
that but it looks like
a lot of money has been spent on it.
I'd be struggling to see it making
more than maybe 300 quid
or thereabouts.
What do you think?
Well, actually, I flogged it.
Well done. And I flogged it for 350. Good.
Henry's bit of business
has picked up another £100 for Phil.
If you look at it, you've
got 100 quid from something that was
in the barn really doing nothing.
Yeah, that's right. That's fine.
The money was well spent.
You could have just hand-painted it
but you stepped up
to the mark there,
really pushed the boat out, and
you've still made money. Cheers.
OK. Happy with that.
Come on then, Adam.
Give it to me. Light up my life.
Simon's first item, an old ship's
searchlight, has been transformed
into a freestanding living room lamp
for a cost of £225.
That's a lovely thing. What you've
done with it is really good as well.
I think I'd probably
put £300-£500 on it.
Do you know what?
That's what I've sold it for.
You have sold it?
It's sold, mate. 500 quid.
Private buyer.
Oh, yes, it's gone, mate.
A glowing result for Simon,
making another 275 quid for Phil.
Staddlestone. Personally, I'm not
blown away by that.
It's unremarkable to me, really.
I've really offended him!
The old staddlestone is now a
working water feature. After
spending £50,
Simon will be hoping his inventive
idea will turn Phil a tidy profit.
How much is it worth, not with the
water feature?
200 quid. 200 to 300.
How much is it worth after all my
hard work turning into
a unique, one-off...
200 to 300.
HE LAUGHS
I'm sorry, mate!
You're not serious?!
I am serious! It's unremarkable to
me, really. Sorry!
A bitter blow.
Simon's hard work hasn't added a penny
to the £300 value of the staddlestone.
The £50 he spent has
reduced Phil's profit to 250 quid.
In total, you'll put in your
pocket, 1,125 quid.
Sounds very good.
Brilliant. Thanks very much.
A joy, as always, mate.
Phil, you haven't got a pond, have
you?
I have, actually.
Have you?
I think that would spoil it.
You're not going to sell it back to
him! It wouldn't spoil it!
Henry's choice of location
as earned Phil £1,125.
It's nice to see the items now that
they have been restored.
The lads come over and get them
running. It's good.
Phil's more than a
grand to the good.
But with £2,655 profit,
it's Simon's choice,
Derek and his barns, that's made
serious money.
HE SIGHS
Yes, well, happy days.
Yeah. You look very happy.
I am, mate. Why? You lost. What?
In my place, Derek's lovely old
location, what a gorgeous place,
that was that I picked,
we made the most money.
£2,655.
What was the majority of that?
That car that was there. Yeah.
That I knew was there and that's why
we went there. 1,125 quid.
Phil is well happy with that.
So he should be.
Derek is well happy.
And I should have won it.
Once more we found the gold amongst
the old. That's what we do well.
Exactly, mate.
And what I do well, is win.
