[CAR HONKS] NARRATOR: The nation's favorite celebrities-- Oh!

Just want to touch base.

NARRATOR: --paired up with an expert-- - Boo!

- Whoo!

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: --and a classic car.

No hands!

NARRATOR: Their mission, to scour Britain for antiques.

My office, now!

NARRATOR: The aim, to make the biggest profit at auction.

But it's no easy ride.

[GEARS GRIND] Oh!

NARRATOR: Who will find a hidden gem?

[HORN HONKS] Like that.

NARRATOR: Who will take the biggest risk?

This could end in disaster.

NARRATOR: Will anybody follow expert advice.

But I love this.

Why would you buy something you're not going to use?

NARRATOR: There will be worthy winners and valiant losers.

No, I don't want to shake hands.

NARRATOR: Put your pedal to the metal.

Let me get out of first gear.

NARRATOR: This is the "Celebrity Antiques Road Trip."

[THEME MUSIC] Yeah!

Today, we're giving birth to a brand new road trip, push, push, in the southeast of England with "Call The Midwife" stars, Cliff Parisi and Judy Parfitt.

[BOTH LAUGHING] What are your clever things that you're going to buy?

What are you interested in?

You're asking me to talk to the enemy now.

You, my friend, today, although we're friends right now-- Yes.

--as soon as you get out of this car-- JUDY PARFITT: No, we're not!

- --friend finished, my friend.

We'll always be friends, but I'll be the most successful friend.

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: Fighting talk, I like it.

Best known as Mechanic Minty in "EastEnders," Cliff can now be seen as Handyman Fred in hit series "Call The Midwife."

Hopefully, he won't need to call on his character's car fixing skills today, as they're motoring around in his 1965 Ford Zodiac.

Built before seatbelts became mandatory means, they aren't fitted, which is why they're not wearing any.

Ha!

You know, my dad had one of these.

When I was a small boy, I used to seat in the back of it, and we used to go and see my grandfather.

And I've got a photograph somewhere of my little sister, and she was just born, and we're all in the car.

Really?

Yeah, one of these, exactly.

So this is quite nice.

This is quite an event for me.

NARRATOR: Cliff's co-star, Judy Parfitt, has been a leading lady of screens, both sober and small, for almost 60 years, racking up around 150 credits.

I'm on the lookout for something unusual.

Rather like you.

[BOTH LAUGHING] What are you going to look for?

I think I'm just going to do a collection of bedpans.

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: I wouldn't let your experts hear that, Cliff.

Road trip regulars, antique gurus, Philip Serrell and Catherine Southon will be guiding our celebrities on their journey.

They're in this rather smart 1965 Jaguar Mark 2.

Whoa!

Isn't this a car?

Well, it would be better if you can drive it properly.

Cheeky devil.

Coming from you, that is rich.

I'm so excited about today.

Really?

Because-- Are you a fan?

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Oh, my goodness.

"Call The Midwife" has to be my ultimate favorite program.

It just makes me happy.

The program leaves me warm inside.

Ah!

Isn't that nice?

NARRATOR: Bit like this show then.

Ha-ha!

Starting with 400 pounds in their pockets, our teams will be touring Kent.

Affectionately known as the Garden of England, they'll make various shopping pit stops all over this glorious county before heading to Diss, in Norfolk, for auction.

Diss is going to be amazing.

Here they come!

Get the hot towels.

Come on, then.

I'm so excited.

Hi, lovely.

How are you?

Lovely to meet you.

Lovely to meet you.

We're both great fans of the show.

CLIFF PARISI: We love this show.

- Really?

Yes.

We'll soon change that.

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: Oh, no, you won't, Philip.

[LAUGHS] Judy's pairing up with joker Serrell, which leaves Cliff and Catherine to join forces.

Bye!

OK, Catherine.

Right.

Show me what this thing does.

This is much better.

[ENGINE STARTS] [MUSIC PLAYING] Woohoo!

The world is our oyster.

We can buy whatever we want.

I think you're going to spend it all.

No, I love antique shops.

My wife has to drag me out of them.

I'm constantly in them, bring them bits of-- I went out to get some milk the other week, and I came back with a piano.

So who knows what's going to happen today.

Do you like driving this car?

I love cars Yeah, this is a lovely car to drive as well.

Yeah, I love old cars.

I think if you do my job, you just love old things generally, you know?

It's just-- You'll be all right with me, then.

Shut up!

[LAUGHS] I have to ask you about your "Midwife," because I am the biggest fan in the country.

Oh, that's so kind.

It's a great program, isn't it?

You must enjoy it.

It's a great program.

We love it.

We love making it.

We were all incredibly protective and very proud of the show, like a family.

And it's great.

I think, initially, it was six episodes, and then this extraordinary reaction.

I mean, we're now working on the seventh series, and we have 11 and 1/2 million viewers-- That's not too shabby.

--which is incredible.

Yeah.

So with Sister Monica Joan, our Judy, I get the impression she's going to want to win.

Oh, yeah, she wants to win.

Oh, no, we both want to win.

We've got a little side bet going on.

She's got to make me tea for the next six months if she doesn't win.

NARRATOR: Judy and Phil's first shop of the day is Barham in the Kent Downs.

I just want something quirky and unusual.

I'm sat here.

And that's worth a lot of money.

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: They've arrived at Staplegate Antiques.

A family-run business, this shop is packed with delights for Judy and Phil to pore over.

JUDY PARFITT: Oh, boy, this looks promising.

There are some jolly good things in here, aren't there?

Yeah.

I like the look of that, Phil.

PHILIP SERRELL: That telescope?

JUDY PARFITT: Yeah.

Catherine is an expert in these, you know.

Oh, I came with the wrong person.

You're absolutely right, yeah.

There is many who have said that.

NARRATOR: Ah, you don't want to believe that.

Oh, I like the pug, Phil.

Oh, he's gorgeous.

JUDY PARFITT: He's lovely.

PHILIP SERRELL: He's gorgeous.

No, he doesn't look like he's got much age.

JUDY PARFITT: No.

I think you'd need to buy that for between 60 and 80 pounds to do any good with that.

Oh, well, it's 195, so we're not going to be-- Start saving.

--doing that.

I think the furniture is beyond our purse.

This is pretty.

It is beyond our budget a little bit.

JUDY PARFITT: Yeah.

We are about 3,050 quid shy of that.

[CHUCKLES] NARRATOR: [LAUGHS] Step away from the pricey pieces.

That leather-covered telescope is cheaper.

PHILIP SERRELL: It's an interesting thing, isn't it?

JUDY PARFITT: Yes.

It's old too.

And this beautiful leather.

And look at the stitching down there.

PHILIP SERRELL: It has a great color, hasn't it?

JUDY PARFITT: Yes.

It's lovely.

PHILIP SERRELL: And how much is that?

It's 120.

ED Gannon there.

Is that good?

PHILIP SERRELL: Well, I guess that might be the person who owned it.

Right.

I'm guessing.

And then round here, look.

J Coombes of Devonport.

So you kind of think this might be naval.

Circa 1870.

I think it's probably a little bit later than that actually.

- Do you?

- Yeah, I do.

But I think it's just quite a nice thing.

And one of the reasons why I think it's later is just by the way this sort of script here.

Right.

But I think it's a nice thing.

NARRATOR: While Judy and Phil consider the telescope, Cliff and Catherine are busy making their way to Bagham Cross near Canterbury.

So what will we find in Kent that we won't find anywhere else?

Who knows?

I think we just got to go with the flow.

I'm quite happy just to look at and buy anything, really.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Yeah.

As long as I like the look of it.

Yeah, that sounds good to me.

I'm going to kind of need you to police me, though, because, you know, I'll probably give them twice as much as what it's worth.

So you're going to need to watch out to make sure that I'm not paying too much for stuff.

Right, OK. Is that a deal?

That is a deal.

NARRATOR: They've arrived at their first shop and are raring to go.

Pretty.

I can't get out the car.

You're going to have to get me out.

Lift that round button.

[CHUCKLES] There.

Squeeze it.

Oh!

It needs a bit of oomph.

I'm not strong enough.

Let's go look see.

NARRATOR: Situated in a beautifully-restored 17th-century barn, there's plenty of antiques here.

Look at this.

Lovely.

Welcome to Beckham Barn.

I'm Peggy.

Oh, get out of my antique shop.

[BOTH LAUGHING] Hello, Peggy.

Peggy.

[LAUGHS] Good one, Cliff.

Right, introduction's over, time to get browsing.

CLIFF PARISI: Look at that.

Look.

It turns into a table and a toilet.

Don't wind me up.

[RINGS] I think that is absolutely dinky.

I can imagine the children playing with this in "Call The Midwife" actually.

Yeah.

Maybe we can sell it to them.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Let me take my glasses off.

Scramble!

Ah, I'm never going to get in that plane!

[LAUGHS] I can't get in the cockpit.

[LAUGHS] That's a bit tight.

NARRATOR: Oh, Lordy.

After a good old rummage, it looks like Cliff's inner child has found something to play with.

It's a Mark I Ford Escort.

It's made by Dinky.

I've never seen one before.

And it's in really good condition.

35 quid.

We could get a sort of collection of them, or do you just want that one?

- Shall we do a little lot?

Shall we do-- - Yeah.

If we can get that one.

This is quite good.

Look at this.

And it's got an ambulance.

Oh, a little ambulance.

CLIFF PARISI: It's got an ambulance driver.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Ah, with a little driver.

Oh, he's nice.

CLIFF PARISI: And-- CATHERINE SOUTHON: [LAUGHS] CLIFF PARISI: --it's got a patient.

It's got a patient in the back.

She's having a baby.

Call the midwife!

Shove her in.

Come on, get back on the bed.

There you go.

There you are.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Oh, I think it's a him, actually.

It's pregnant, whoever it is.

It's pregnant.

We'll soon have you in the hospital.

There you are.

Nee-naw, nee-naw!

If we got that on-- - Isn't that wonderful?

- --how much is that?

- How much is that?

22.

Oh, let's get that.

NARRATOR: The combined ticket price for the three, 82 pounds.

Time to talk to dealer Paul.

Paul?

Is there anything we can do on this?

What, are you looking at the three together?

Yeah.

What about 50?

I can do 50 for you, if that helps.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Happy with that?

Yeah, I'm happy with that.

Thank you.

PAUL: You're welcome.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: I'd better-- gosh, you've got a firm shake.

He almost broke my hand.

[BOTH LAUGHING] I'll be the next patient in there.

I'd better pay you.

NARRATOR: While Cliff and Catherine are busy buying cars, back in Barham, Judy and Phil have cornered dealer Gay to enquire about the telescope they fancy.

What's your very best on that?

It's up at one-- PHILIP SERRELL: 120.

GAY: 120.

Am I going to tell you what I think it's worth, or do you want to tell us?

No, you tell me.

Well, I think we've got to try and buy it for around 50, 55 pounds.

That's where I would see it.

But while you're thinking about that, I know that with all your beautiful things in here, you must have a workshop or a store somewhere that might have some hidden little gems in it.

We have a little next-door nook.

Oh, wow.

NARRATOR: Aha!

Time for a good nosey in the nook, eh?

PHILIP SERRELL: I like that.

It's just an old wastepaper bin.

That's quite cool, isn't it?

Yeah.

PHILIP SERRELL: I bet that's no money at all, is it?

Yeah.

JUDY PARFITT: I like it.

PHILIP SERRELL: Five or 10 quid?

JUDY PARFITT: Yeah.

Would you take five pounds to that?

GAY: I take 10.

10, can we afford 10?

We can save up, can't we?

Is there anything else in here?

I don't know.

What have you seen?

I quite like that table.

JUDY PARFITT: That's nice table.

PHILIP SERRELL: How much is the table?

GAY: The asking price for that, I thought-- Oh, no, no, not the asking price.

She's lovely, isn't she?

[BOTH LAUGHING] Not the asking price.

GAY: Well-- The price you're going to be kind enough to give us.

GAY: The asking price was 120, but we could drop to-- 60 quid.

GAY: I'm just going to say 70.

Should we have a look at that?

Let's have a look at it.

NARRATOR: That looks weighty.

Mind you don't do yourself a mischief, Philip.

PHILIP SERRELL: I think it's Indian.

So you lift that up.

That is so heavy.

This is made out of paduak.

What's that?

It's a really heavy sort of equatorial hardwood that you can't sort of even drive nails into it.

It is rock, rock hard.

JUDY PARFITT: Really?

PHILIP SERRELL: But the problem with it is, and it is a problem, somebody has just cleaned this top off.

This has had Botox and a face-lift.

[BOTH LAUGHING] OK.

Doesn't look natural.

No, and this looks as though it's varnish to me.

Yeah, it's been treacled up to the nines.

JUDY PARFITT: I don't think I want to buy it.

Well, I think it's not a bad example of what it is actually.

I think if you can get the two for 70 quid, I think you'd be all right.

Whatever you say.

Well, no, you're the boss, boss.

No, you're the expert.

Don't you call me that.

What did you just say?

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: It's down to you, Judy.

JUDY PARFITT: Please, can I have the two for 70 quid.

[BOTH LAUGHING] How about 75?

There we are.

I can't-- I mean, that is a good price for-- PHILIP SERRELL: Shall we leave the telescope?

Well, I don't know what price are you thinking of the telescope.

30 pounds for the telescope.

No.

No, I can't do 30.

GAY: Can't you?

PHILIP SERRELL: Could you do all three for 110 quid?

- Yes.

- All right.

- Thank you.

- Really?

Well, you've done remarkably well.

- Well, there you go.

- You're an angel.

Do you know what?

- I know.

You've done us really, really well.

I've got one other favor as well.

Have you got a damp cloth I could borrow, please?

Yes.

For you or the table?

NARRATOR: Ha!

There's a thought.

Now, some very kind discounts mean Judy and Phil had bought the paduak Anglo-Indian table for 65 pounds, the leather telescope for 35, and the 19th-century wastepaper bin for a tenner, all in their first shop.

That's marvelous.

Gosh.

No, don't worry, Judy.

I'm fine, honestly.

You can manage?

Lord above.

NARRATOR: Manage?

The poor old boy's had it.

Back in Bagham Cross, Cliff's hunt continues.

You know, my grandad used to have this case with lots of little knick-knacks in it and things like this, and all that kind of stuff, little curios.

And I really like those.

Look.

A cake plate for very tiny cakes.

NARRATOR: No time for a tea break just yet, Cliff.

Catherine found something she thinks you'll like.

I saw this.

I can't actually lift this.

I need a big strong man like you to lift this.

Oh, here you go.

He's like, this is so light.

Hooy!

You got it?

Cast iron.

Yeah.

Beware of trains.

So that's Scottish.

Scottish.

- Is it?

How did you know?

CR.

Caledonian Railway.

Oh, OK.

This should be ach.

Ach, beware of the trains!

NARRATOR: Oh, dear!

Accents aren't her strong suit.

Anyway, she's found a nice-looking vintage railway lamp.

Look at that.

OK. [CHUCKLES] Right.

But-- OK, OK, OK, OK.

So this is going to go across to two different people, isn't it?

This is going to go across to your people who are interested in it for a railwayana type-of-thing and also your people who are interested in it as a sort of decorative thing to have in the garden.

NARRATOR: Choo-choo!

The railway lamp is priced at 65 pounds.

The railway sign is 140.

What's your best, then, Paul?

The two together, the cast iron and the lamp, bottom price would be a straight 100.

What about 90?

Shh, 90?

As we bought your lovely cars.

You'd be doing us-- All right, as you bought the dinky toys as well, deal.

- Lovely.

- Are you happy with that?

Yeah.

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: A nice bit of bargaining from Cliff bags them the 1940s railway signed for 65 pounds and the vintage railway lamp for 25.

Top notch, I'd say.

Judy and Phil are taking a detour from shopping and heading to Dover.

Somebody once told me, there's a massive difference between being Kent and Kentish.

Kentish is sort of almost like the London side of Kent.

Oh, right, right, right.

And a man of Kent is more of hop fields and-- Yes.

--Darling Buds of May-- Yes, yes.

--all that sort of stuff.

NARRATOR: Before the Royal Navy was formed in the 16th century, local mariners were once this country's first line of defense.

Five ports on the Southeast coast maintained a fleet of ships that the monarch could call upon at any time to defend England from attack.

Known as the Cinque Ports, or Cinque Ports, Hastings, Romney, Hythe, Dover, and Sandwich played a key role in the development of Great Britain as a Naval superpower.

It's here, at Dover Castle, that Len Howell from English Heritage has the story.

Hello, I'm Judy.

Hello.

Hello, I'm Len.

Welcome to Dover Castle, in Dover, one of the Cinque Ports.

Why is it called Cinque Ports?

Because there were five of them, basically.

It goes back to the French word cinq, cinq.

One of the visitors to the castle actually said that that is Norman French rather than high French.

So cinq rather than cinq.

NARRATOR: In 1066, William, Duke of Normandy, sailed across the channel with his army and invaded.

England offered little naval resistance, and the vulnerability of the coast was clear.

So when William the Conqueror took to the throne, he prioritized the creation of coastal defenses at five key points along the Southeast of England, naming them Cinque Ports.

The purpose of the Cinque Ports was to provide protection for royalty.

Doing what?

Why?

LEN HOWELL: It was providing ships is the prime function here.

There was no Royal Navy then.

If you were involved in fighting at sea, you needed experienced mariners to be able to do that.

Before they started, you'd have hired mercenaries.

PHILIP SERRELL: Yeah.

But they became an established idea that it was probably cheaper and more convenient to have a range of ports that were obliged to give you service in return for certain privileges that those ports then gained from the crown.

What did they get back?

LEN HOWELL: A lot.

They had many tax benefits.

And they had the right to control their own laws.

There were financial benefits and kudos benefits that came to the Cinque portsmen.

How long were the Cinque Ports in operation?

They were very active during the 11th century.

The 12th century was coming to their heyday, and the early 13th century.

But after the 13th started to go on, they began to decline in their influence and their importance, especially as the provision of ships for the monarch.

But certainly, by the time we get to the end of the 15th century, when Henry VII comes to the throne, he's actually building purpose-built warships.

NARRATOR: Cinque Ports proved effective and successful.

The Battle of Sandwich in 1217 was one of the most important naval engagements of the time.

Cinque Port ships destroyed a much larger French fleet intent on invading England.

The Cinque Ports were last called upon in 1588 to provide defense against the Spanish Armada.

And who was in charge?

The most important person within the Cinque Ports was generally considered to be the Lord Warden, which was the monarch's representative within the Cinque Ports Federation themselves.

NARRATOR: The Lord Warden, and Admiral of the Cinque Ports, and Constable of Dover Castle was once one of the most powerful officials in the kingdom.

So these are the arms of almost 1,000 years worth of wardens.

LEN HOWELL: Yeah, exactly, yes.

PHILIP SERRELL: How many is there?

Some lasted not very long, but a lot were Lord Warden for 10, 20, 30 years.

And what do they have to do?

Basically, they are the monarch's representative.

These days, they represent the Cinque Ports at certain functions.

If you go back, they were taking control of a lot of the courts of the Cinque Ports, dealing with different matters, mostly maritime matters.

But these days, it is just a figurehead for the Cinque Port Association themselves.

Very roughly, what date did this change from becoming operative to titular?

Well, certainly by the time we get to the beginning of the 15th century, it definitely was then.

Because the importance of the fleet as a fighting force is recognized as being slipping away.

NARRATOR: Over the centuries, the office has been bestowed upon prime ministers and distinguished wartime leaders, like the Duke of Wellington and Sir Winston Churchill.

The only woman to have ever held the office is the Queen Mother.

Although few of their ancient privileges survive today, Cinque Ports played an important and often violent role in developing the nation's seafaring and naval traditions.

Thank you very much.

It's been pleasure.

It's been absolutely fascinating.

LEN HOWELL: Thank you very much.

- It's lovely.

Thank you very much.

Your enthusiasm is very catching.

Thank you very much indeed.

Thank you.

Shall we head out?

[MUSIC PLAYING] NARRATOR: Further along the coast, Cliff and Catherine are about to invade another of the Cinque Ports, the small coastal town of Hythe.

With 260 pounds still to spend, they've arrived at the Malthouse, an antique center with 25 dealers under one roof.

There are some really nice books here.

Look at that.

They're a bit specialist.

A bit specialist.

Toys!

I can't bear anymore toy cars.

That's a proper "Call The Midwife" dress.

That's tiny.

We bought boys' things.

Yeah, let's get something girly.

So maybe silver, maybe jewelry.

Something a bit posh.

A bit posh.

With a bit of age to it but quality.

Top-notch.

Right, like that top-notch.

Like us.

Like us.

There you go.

Sparkly.

Come and look.

Sparkly, sparkly.

What do you think of that lot then?

What do you think of that lot then?

How much is that lot?

Oh, well-- [BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: Don't worry, Ali.

He's just pulling your leg.

That's nice.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Arts and crafts.

CLIFF PARISI: Arts and crafts, little bowl.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Bonbon dish.

CLIFF PARISI: Yeah.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: It's quite stylish.

CLIFF PARISI: Yeah.

And it's quite weighty.

But how much is on that?

98 pounds.

That's not 98 pounds for us.

ALI: I can come down.

We like people that come down.

What about this pair of trumpet vases?

I think I've got-- what have I got on them?

CATHERINE SOUTHON: These are sort of 1930s, are they?

ALI: They're older than that.

That one looks very-- can you see that?

That's a little bit worn at the top.

What I like is that they're quite simple in their design.

That's why I thought they were '30s.

Are they really much earlier?

ALI: I think they're about 1919.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: 1919.

ALI: I could do them for 60.

They have some kind of a look of Deco, haven't they?

Exactly.

Which is why I think-- Yeah.

--they're more sort of late '20s, early '30s.

CLIFF PARISI: I like them.

I think they're really nice.

NARRATOR: That's two possibles.

But is there a third piece of silver in the offing to?

This is quite nice, isn't it, little pin tray?

William Cummins.

William Cummins.

Oh, William Cummins.

You know him?

Good friend of yours?

Mm, sorry.

Well, I mean, get in the name of-- in the name of smalls, silver smalls, he's a pretty good name.

He's up there.

But what's lovely about this being heart-shaped, a little pin tray, it's all repousse.

It's all been sort of hammered from the back to create this lovely little pattern.

And you've got little lovebirds and little swags.

It would look lovely on a dressing table.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And it's actually got quite a nice clear hallmark there.

So that is B.

So that's about 1901, 1902.

And what have you got on that?

I can do-- the best I can do on that is 40.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: What do you think?

CLIFF PARISI: Looks to me like-- I haven't got my glasses on, but it looks like someone's been hitting that with a hammer.

But I'll take your word for it.

This is quality silversmithing!

All right.

So what's the best deal you can give us for all three?

I could do 110 for the three pieces.

I think we should buy it.

- Well-- - All of it.

- All of it?

- All of it.

Do you?

Let's take the lot.

You're a bit of a gambler, aren't you?

OK.

So we're going to buy the trumpet vases-- Yeah.

--the arts and crafts-- Bowl.

--bonbon dish-- Yeah.

--and the William Cummins tray, which you didn't like.

Yes, it's lovely.

You hate it, don't you?

No, no, it's nice.

It's nice.

It's nice, isn't it?

It is lovely.

NARRATOR: Cliff may not be completely sold, but they're going for it anyway.

That's a bargain 30 pounds for the pin dish, 40 pounds for the trumpet vases, and another 40 for the bonbon dish.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

NARRATOR: After a busy day of buying, it's time for our weary celebrities and experts to have a well-earned rest.

So nighty night.

It's the next morning.

Cliff and Judy are back together and making their way to Cliffsend to meet their experts.

Phil was wonderful and very helpful to me.

Was he?

Yes, he was.

He was absolutely lovely.

Because he did exactly what I wanted him to do.

[LAUGHS] Everybody does what you want them to do, Judy.

Otherwise, there's trouble.

Judy is a buying machine.

I would not want to play cards with her, because just this completely expressionless face, that's what I'll offer you for it.

Catherine thought I was marvelous.

She thought I had a brilliant eye and-- [LAUGHS] --and I was instinctive.

[LAUGHS] Possibly a touch too instinctive.

[LAUGHS] CATHERINE SOUTHON: He's a good chap.

But buying, shopping is a big no, no.

Really?

Because he just goes in, and he says, yeah, we'll have that.

Shall we have that as well and that?

If I'd have let him, we would have bought everything.

NARRATOR: So Cliff and Catherine have already bought five lots to take to auction, the vintage Dinky cars, the 1940s railway sign, the vintage railway lamp, the heart-shaped pin dish, and the pair of trumpet vases and bonbon dish, leaving them 150 pound purse.

I'm warming up.

[RINGS] NARRATOR: Meanwhile, Judy and Phil have bought three things, the leather telescope, the 19th century wastepaper bin, and the paduak table.

Can we afford 10?

We can save up, can't we?

NARRATOR: Which means they still have 290 pounds available to spend.

CLIFF PARISI: Do you know what I'm going to be looking for today?

- No.

I'm going to give you a little tip.

All right.

Orange '70s plastic.

Orange '70s-- my idea of hell.

[LAUGHS] Absolutely.

I mean, orange is not my favorite color.

It's very '70s.

Orange, purple.

I lived through it.

I don't have to go back there.

Oh, I remember you in the '70s, Judy.

Yes, I was amazing.

Ooh.

You still are.

Look what happened.

NARRATOR: You're still just as wonderful as you were, Judy.

Here they are, look.

Yeehee!

They're raring to go again.

Hello!

Good morning!

Good morning!

Good morning.

Are you ready?

Yeah.

Good luck today, Judy.

Not too much luck to you.

[BOTH LAUGHING] Enjoy yourself.

- Yes.

- See you later.

PHILIP SERRELL: We will.

- It's a good day.

I know.

It is a good day.

You're in that one.

- Oh, I'm in that one.

[LAUGHS] See you!

Bye!

Good luck!

No!

Thank you.

Early birds and worms!

Absolutely.

Onwards.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Fabulous.

NARRATOR: Come on, Phil, get a shift on.

The other two are getting away!

(SINGING) Get your motor running.

Get out on the highway.

Looking for adventure and whatever comes my way!

Oi, mate!

[LAUGHS] You're such a friendly guy, you are, aren't you?

You got this massive-- Oi, mate!

--massive, cheeky smile.

Oi!

And that is just how you.

That is who you play-- Hiya, mate!

--in "Call The Midwife."

Oi, mate!

Ice cream?

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: While Cliff's busy making friends with the locals, Judy and Phil are making their way to the seaside town of Ramsgate.

You've been a career actress, haven't you?

Well, I think so.

[LAUGHS] Which was the role that got away?

Ah.

Dad you wish you'd played.

I played Mary, Queen of Scots, in "Vivat!

Vivat Regina!"

In London.

PHILIP SERRELL: Yeah.

Which was wonderful.

She was amazing woman.

I loved doing it.

But basically, my heart's always been Elizabeth I.

And I've done it on radio, but I've never played her.

And I've always wanted to play Elizabeth I.

And the parts that got away are endless, because Judi Dench plays over parts I want to play.

So you could have been M?

I could have.

You could.

And I could have been Bond!

[LAUGHS] Well, there's no need to laugh, Judy.

NARRATOR: I can see it now.

The name's Serrell, Phil Serrell.

Secret Agent Serrell and J have arrived at Petticoat Lane Emporium.

Shall we go and tear the place apart?

Let's go and find treasure.

NARRATOR: With loads of dealers' stalls packed to the gunwales with antiques and vintage goods, they're sure to find something, aren't they?

Judy.

Yes?

Do you think this is my color?

Oh, I think it's wonderful.

But have you got the arms for it?

Yeah, I don't think I've got anything for it.

[LAUGHS] Look.

Judy.

That's in case I forget my name.

PHILIP SERRELL: Judy.

JUDY PARFITT: [LAUGHS] Well, Judy and Cliff!

Oh, Judy and Cliff.

It's got a ring to it, isn't it?

- It has.

- Yeah.

But not one I would like to wear.

Put it down.

What is it?

[LAUGHS] Judy, what is this?

I don't know.

What is it?

It looks like a straight jacket for a very tall person.

That rules me out.

NARRATOR: [LAUGHS] I think you'll find it's a canvas and wood mountain rescue stretcher from the '50s.

PHILIP SERRELL: That's just what it is.

It's a stretcher, isn't it?

Yeah, it's a stretcher.

NARRATOR: Told you so.

Probably for very thin, ill people as well.

[CHUCKLES] You can't get fat, ill people on there, would you?

But I think that unfurls.

They unfurl there, don't they?

Is there a label that gives us a bit of a clue?

It says, a vintage mountain rescue stretcher.

Rare.

You can't argue with that, can you?

No, you can't.

[CLANGS] I think somebody might need that now.

[LAUGHS] Hello!

[BOTH LAUGHING] JUDY PARFITT: Oh, I think we should have a go at that, I think that's-- PHILIP SERRELL: Do you really?

JUDY PARFITT: With the right price.

NARRATOR: The stretcher is a possibility.

No mountains around here, though.

Time to split up.

I don't know why I always seem to gravitate towards trunks.

NARRATOR: Looks like Judy likes them too.

It's a silver chest rather than a trunk.

So in the 18th and 19th centuries, you would keep the family silver in a large trunk or chest like this.

With some glass over the top, it would make a nice coffee table or a storage thing.

I think that's a good thing.

But you could turn that into a really cool coffee table.

Make a great kids' dressing up box or toy box.

I wonder if she'd like that.

NARRATOR: I reckon so, mate.

But there's only one way to find out for sure.

I just like this old trunk, you know-- JUDY PARFITT: Mmm.

--or a silver chest.

The thing is it's 195 quid, which is a bit punchy.

JUDY PARFITT: How old do you think that is?

I would think that's probably about 1850, 1860.

Can I show you what I've just seen?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

JUDY PARFITT: What do you think of this?

PHILIP SERRELL: I love that!

That's quite cool!

So which do you think is the better one?

How much is that one?

110.

Well, I'm already drawn to that one, because it's like half the money, almost.

JUDY PARFITT: Yes.

It says Sir Hampton, 11th of July, '63.

AA Blackman.

NARRATOR: They settle on Judy's trunk and that 45-pound mountain rescue thingamajig.

Let's talk money with dealer Zach.

Zach?

I'd like to have a look at this and the mountain rescue thing at sort of 65 quid, really.

That's where I-- - For the lot?

For both.

Yeah, both.

ZACH: 80 on the two.

70 quid, we'll shake your hand.

75.

Toss a coin?

Yes.

OK, and what's it between?

70 or?

70 and 75.

OK, all right.

PHILIP SERRELL: Yeah.

Tails.

So if it's tails, it's 75.

No, heads.

Heads, it's 75, and tails, it's 70, yeah?

Yeah.

PHILIP SERRELL: It's a tail.

Never change your mind.

There you go, you see?

There you go.

- You're a star, mate.

- All right.

- Thank you very much.

- No worries.

It's been a pleasure.

- Thank you very much.

Thank you.

- Yeah.

Thanks.

NARRATOR: That toss of the coin secures them the Lake Victoria trunk for 50 pounds and the vintage stretcher for 20.

[MUSIC PLAYING] Meanwhile, our other duo are making their way to Manston, where Catherine has a treat in store for aviation fanatic Cliff.

So you are an amateur pilot?

- I am.

- What can you fly?

Rockets?

Commercial airlines?

Two by two?

Little two?

One-seater?

Four-seater.

Four-seater!

Give me four-seater.

That is impressive.

But I'm not fully qualified yet, so I'm not allowed to take you up without another pilot being with me.

But I can't go up solo on my own.

Oh, yes.

So you've not got your license yet?

Or you?

- No.

Not quite.

No.

I'm really impressed with you being a pilot.

Oh, sorry?

Captain.

Captain Cliff.

Commander, please, commander.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Commander Cliff.

Commander of my own aircraft.

Ah!

I should say so.

Captain.

NARRATOR: With Wing Commander Cliff's passion for aviation in mind, Catherine's taking him on a detour to find out about an unsung hero of the Battle of Britain.

They've come to the Manston Spitfire and Hurricane Memorial Museum to hear all about the aircraft's history from trust manager Matt Demedts.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Hi, there.

Hi.

Catherine.

- Hi.

Thanks for having us here.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Matt.

- Wow.

Hi, I'm Cliff.

How are you?

Hello, Cliff.

Look a that.

NARRATOR: A major air campaign fought over Southern England in the summer and autumn of 1940.

The Battle of Britain was one of the most important victories of the Second World War.

When people think of this crucial campaign, it's the Supermarine Spitfire that normally springs to mind.

But the Hawker Hurricane was, in fact, the principal fighter of the Battle of Britain, with 19 squadrons of Spitfires compared to 32 with Hurricanes.

For, as Michael Caine used to say, not a lot of people know that.

The reason it's less known is because, for lack of a better word, it's not as sexy as I say in aircraft terminology.

The Spitfire would be a racehorse.

This aircraft is really a draft horse.

This is doing the majority of the work.

The advantage of the Hurricane, first of all, there being more of them.

But also it's a far more reliable gun platform, very sturdy aircraft.

So what they used to do is hurricane pilots would attack bombers or German bomber formations with the aim of dispersing or shooting down as many German aircraft before they reached their targets.

NARRATOR: Even though the Hurricane shot down more aircraft than all other air and ground defenses put together, its achievements are eclipsed by the Spitfire's speed, graceful silhouette, and romantic legend.

So what was the main difference in construction between the Hurricane and the Spitfire?

MATT DEMEDTS: The Hurricane is made of a mixture of materials, so wood and canvas for the rear section, and then aluminum for the front section.

The Spitfire, being a later aircraft, was designed entirely and built entirely out of aluminum.

But what they found with the Hurricane is because of its simple design, it was easier to repair and fix during combat situations.

So indeed, if a German round went through to Hurricane, it was simply a matter of patching up, as you would do almost with a bit of clothing, really.

Whereas, if there was any damage to a Spitfire, it's a whole panel that has to come off, specialized tools and all that sort of thing.

What was the ratio during the Battle of Britain between Allied planes and enemy aircraft?

There's roughly 800 aircraft ready for action on the RAF side.

The German Luftwaffe is attacking the RAF with well over 1,400, so 1,400 aircraft of different types.

That said, the main advantage that the RAF has is that all 800 are fighters.

Obviously, the great majority of the German aircraft are bombers.

NARRATOR: During the Battle of Britain, the Luftwaffe was dealt an almost lethal blow from which it never fully recovered.

Much of this success was thanks to the Hurricane and, of course, their brave pilots.

When Britain faced attack, the pilots would be ordered to scramble.

Every second counted, and they had less than five minutes to get out and get into their planes.

It was no mean feat.

And flying fan Cliff reckons he's up for the challenge.

Are you ready?

I'm ready.

3, 2, 1, scramble!

Come on, come on!

Tan-tan-tan!

[MUSIC PLAYING] [LAUGHS] Come on, come on!

Scramble!

Be quicker!

Quicker!

You're already getting past 15 seconds there.

- Oh!

- Oh!

Oh!

MATT DEMEDTS: That's quite all right.

Keep going.

Oh, it's going to be too small for you.

Quick, quick, quick!

CLIFF PARISI: Where's my Mae West?

Quick!

My Mae West?

We might fall in the drink!

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Scramble, scramble!

Come on!

Fire that plane up!

We can hear-- I can already hear them arriving!

There we go.

Give me it!

Give me it!

Right, I'm going.

And he's gone!

You've left your boots!

They went without me.

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: Victory at the Battle of Britain was key to the overall outcome of the war in which the mighty Hawker Hurricane played a crucial role.

CLIFF PARISI: Listen, thank you so much.

It's been-- - Thank you.

--really an educational fabulous.

So thank you for bringing me here.

I've had a lovely time.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I think you missed the boat.

I missed the plane, certainly.

NARRATOR: For their last spot of shopping before heading to auction, both teams are making their way to Faversham.

Judy and Phil are first to arrive at Aladdin's Loft with 220 pounds in their pocket.

Based in a 17th-century monk's granary, there are a huge range of antiques here.

Judy, we're in a very, very lucky position, you know, really.

Yeah.

Because we bought five things.

Yeah.

We didn't really want to buy anything else.

But if we could, if we could add something into our lot-- JUDY PARFITT: Right.

PHILIP SERRELL: --we could buy it.

But if we don't see it, we won't.

I'm more concerned about where the other lot are.

Where do you think they are?

Right, mind your head.

NARRATOR: Fret not, old bean, they're bringing up the rear.

With six items already bought, they have 150 pounds available to spend.

Here we go.

JUDY PARFITT: Oh, that's pretty.

Nice little pearl necklace, isn't it?

We don't need it, do we?

Bracelet, rather.

Ideally, what would be wonderful would be to find a little car, or a little transporter, or something to go with our weaker lot, which I think-- What?

Sorry, not weaker.

The best lots.

Our fabulous lots.

The problem is we could do more harm than good.

We could be buying some things just for the sake of buying them, and then adding them to our stuff, and then it kind of ruins them.

PHILIP SERRELL: Oh, this is cool, isn't it?

Look.

Travel bar.

JUDY PARFITT: Yeah.

95 pounds.

95.

But it doesn't go with anything we've bought, does it?

PHILIP SERRELL: No.

Very cool thing.

[LAUGHS] Do you like that?

And then you put your shoes, your platform shoes at the end.

[LAUGHS] JUDY PARFITT: What are you doing?

That's the way to do it.

[BOTH LAUGHING] Oh, you've got your duty now.

You've got your punch.

- Yeah.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: You found something.

CLIFF PARISI: Buses.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Real buses.

All aboard!

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Oh, I like them.

CLIFF PARISI: There are a couple of trams there.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: A little tram.

Like the trams.

CLIFF PARISI: That looks quite new to me.

Yeah, we'll reject that one.

Don't want that one.

David D. Gosh.

Oh, aren't they wonderful, the old trams?

It's wonderful.

Really bashed, though, isn't it?

CLIFF PARISI: Yeah.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Seriously bashed.

CLIFF PARISI: I don't think they're up to much, to be honest with you.

Oh, look out, here's trouble.

Oh.

here comes the enemy.

Did you find anything lovely?

- Of course.

- Yeah.

Actually, we've been bombed out with really, really good things.

Really?

Have you?

We've been very lucky.

We were done yesterday.

We really wrapped up yesterday.

We've just come to find you to see if you fancy going for some refreshments.

Drinkey-poos.

Oh, I think so.

Yeah, come on.

You see, I never realized there were two versions of the Mona Lisa until we bought that one, did you?

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: Oh, Philip!

So looks like neither team fancied a flutter in the final shop.

Thank you very much for being such good.

- Actually, I'll drink to that.

- Aw!

We've had such a good time.

Such a wonderful pair.

- Come on.

- Cheers.

Cheers.

So here's lots of money.

This is what this show should be all about, just sitting here with a bit of water in the background, beautiful Kent, sun's shining.

A conveyor belt with sort of antiques being moving in front of us.

And we could just-- - No.

Pick out the one.

No, I'll have that one.

Oh, that one.

If you remembered them, you could have everyone that you remembered as it went around.

And then you could call it The Generation Game, or something like novel, Like that.

That's clever.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

NARRATOR: And on that note, finish your drinks.

It's time for a spot of show and tell.

PHILIP SERRELL: Ta-da!

Ooh!

Cricket.

No, what is that?

It's a hell of a set of cricket pads, that is!

No, well I-- Bearing in mind, the auction is probably in the flattest part of England, this is a mountain rescue stretcher.

Got it!

[BOTH LAUGHING] So we think there's going to be a big demand for that in East Anglia.

I like it.

I think that's really interesting.

I don't think you''d fit on it.

[BOTH LAUGHING] PHILIP SERRELL: This was 20 pounds.

JUDY PARFITT: Yes.

I thought you're going to say 200 then.

No, no, that was 20.

I was almost on that stretcher.

PHILIP SERRELL: And then-- JUDY PARFITT: Oh, this.

PHILIP SERRELL: Catherine, this is-- CATHERINE SOUTHON: Very nice.

CLIFF PARISI: Oh, that's nice.

PHILIP SERRELL: Trunk that Judy found and did a fantastic deal.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Lovely.

CLIFF PARISI: Oh, that good.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Very good.

Our wastepaper bin was a tenner.

I really like that.

I like that too.

I actually really like that.

I think that's lovely.

PHILIP SERRELL: It's so cool.

But our table, which is in padauk wood and is Anglo-Indian, and I think that was really nice.

That's a really-- oh, we're in trouble.

PHILIP SERRELL: [LAUGHS] CATHERINE SOUTHON: That is very-- JUDY PARFITT: It was wonderful.

He insisted on that.

Yeah.

Do you like it?

No.

[BOTH LAUGHING] But it's-- I see exactly what he's saying.

I think it's done brilliantly.

Come on Come on.

We, on the other hand-- Da-da, da-da!

PHILIP SERRELL: I love the lantern.

Oh, I love the train sign.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Yeah.

Oh, you've got great things.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: We did spend quite a bit, didn't we?

Yeah, we did spend quite a bit.

So how much was that?

Because I know those go for a lot of money.

200 pounds.

No, it wasn't.

I think we worked it out, because we got this in a little deal.

Right.

So we've split that to 65.

Wow, that's incredible.

You'll make money on that.

And that to 25.

You'll make money on both of that.

Yeah.

But what we really love is our little cars.

Yeah, and look at this.

Look.

This one, talking about your stretcher, if you open the back here.

We could put it in there.

No, its got a little stretcher and a little-- JUDY PARFITT: Oh, look.

CLIFF PARISI: --a little pregnant lady, look.

How do you know she's pregnant?

It's not.

It's a man, but you know.

He could have been pregnant.

[BOTH LAUGHING] Just going with the theme.

And you put him in the back there, and he goes, take me to Nonnatus House, I'm having a baby.

[BOTH LAUGHING] There you go.

We're going to just wander off, and we'll catch you at the auction.

- Yes.

OK. See you at the auction Come on, you.

Come on.

NARRATOR: Right, out of earshot, what do they really make of each other's lots?

What do you think to Cliff's toys?

Well, they're boys toys, aren't they?

Those will always sell, won't they?

But I don't know how much money-- But it's how much?

That's the thing, isn't it?

We've got one silly lot, which I love.

- I love our silly lot.

- Which is the cars.

Yeah.

And they've got a really silly lot, which is that stretcher.

So-- Are you still got that confidence?

Yes.

Yes, I have.

Would you swap any of our bits with theirs?

No.

I'd be interested to see how we do at the auction now, won't it?

Put it there some.

Put it there.

Thank you.

[MUSIC PLAYING] NARRATOR: After starting in Chartham Hatch, our teams have shopped up around Kent, and Judy and Cliff are now motoring towards Diss in Norfolk for the big finale.

I mean, is that your lucky hat?

I haven't seen that before.

This is my lucky hat.

I always wear this at auctions.

Oh, how many have you been to?

- None.

- Haven't you?

Yeah.

[LAUGHS] I've been to lots of auctions.

I love auctions.

Oh, you're very experienced, are you?

Are you feeling confident?

I'm feeling excited, but I'm certainly not confident.

Because I suspect that you might win.

Really?

I think you got probably more saleable things.

Possibly, because they're still for people like silver.

But we did pay a lot for some stuff.

Anyway.

But you do realize, Judy, you are not allowed to bid on this stuff?

[LAUGHS] So don't start going like that going-- I was going to bid for my own stuff.

--where I can't see you putting your little finger up.

Because I'll be watching you.

NARRATOR: Ditto.

We'll be having none of that.

Catherine and Phil have already arrived at TW Gaze auction rooms and are waiting patiently for their celebrity partners.

Here they are, look.

Here they are.

Do you think they're as excited as we are?

I reckon they will.

They look happy.

Yeah.

[MUSIC PLAYING] Hello, hello, hello.

JUDY PARFITT: Hi.

CLIFF PARISI: Here we are.

Hello, lovely.

How are you?

- Great hat.

- Here we are.

How are you?

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Welcome.

- Hi, darling.

- Good to see you.

- How are you.

- Good to see you.

Lovely to see you.

You too.

So we better go and see what we're going to make, hadn't we?

Come on, then.

NARRATOR: On this road trip, Cliff and Catherine spent 250 pounds.

They're combining the trumpet vases and bonbon dish into one lot, giving them five slots for auction.

Nice and cozy.

NARRATOR: What you call snug.

Judy and Phil spent less, forking out 180 pounds on their five lots.

The lovely Elizabeth Talbot will be wielding the gavel today.

So what does she make of our celebrity's lots?

Beware train sign, that's a great item.

It's good for two things, partly because of the fact it's railwayana and partly because it's been brought for sale in East Anglia.

And East Anglians love their railway items.

The paduak table, when I saw this, It's very eye-catching.

I do like it.

But we still got a problem with furniture.

The market is very erratic still at the moment.

So if people like it but have no use for it, they won't buy it.

And if they don't like it, they certainly won't bid for it.

So my verdict is out on that one.

NARRATOR: Right, it's the moment of truth.

Time for the auction, which has buyers online and in the room.

Well, good luck, because this is your first lot.

We might need it.

NARRATOR: First up, it's Judy's late Victorian trunk.

And I start here at 22 pounds.

Oh.

No, no, you'll be fine.

And it's five.

28 and 30.

I have two.

Surely, a bit more It's that with me at 32.

I've lost you in the room.

Any advance?

32 takes that one.

I'm really surprised at that.

I thought that would make more.

NARRATOR: A disappointing start for Judy.

Bad luck.

Are you gutted?

Well, I thought it would get much more than that.

Yeah, I did.

Yeah.

NARRATOR: Let's see if Cliff can fare any better with his Dinky cars.

He loved them.

But has Catherine warmed?

They look great!

Start me at 20.

Anything from China?

Oh, no!

They've got-- they're at 10.

I'm so embarrassed.

10 pounds for three of them.

And 12.

I have 15.

18 is the front bid.

At 18, I'm out.

You've got 18.

18 pounds on three vehicles there, at 18.

Any advance?

[CHUCKLES] Aw!

We don't mind.

Our trunks' beginning to look quite good.

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: Clearly, there are no Dinky lovers in Diss.

I feel quite affect-- I can understand your pain.

Yes.

Oh, Cliff, you've taken this badly.

I have to deal with this for six months every year.

I'm going.

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: Chin up, Cliff.

There's still plenty of time to make a profit.

Next up, it's Judy's 50's mountain rescue stretcher.

Look at the stone state of that.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: The only one I have ever seen.

Good low start, 20 pounds.

Oh, come on, someone.

I have bids at 12 pounds, looking for 15.

15 is bid.

Thank you in the room at 15.

Come on.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: Any advance?

It will sell.

All done.

Well, that's good.

It's a bargain.

What do you mean that's good?

Have you seen this program?

The idea is we try to make money.

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: And that certainly isn't happening so far, another loss.

The only way is up now.

Yes.

NARRATOR: Let's hope so.

It's the turn of Cliff's 1940s railway sign that our auctioneer fancied.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: And I start at 32 pounds.

35, 38, and 42.

45, 48, and 55.

Come on, Cliff.

Come on!

And 65.

Come on, internet.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: 75.

CATHERINE SOUTHON: Oh!

Oh, it's chugging on.

[CHUCKLES] 75 only.

80, new bidder.

And five.

90, I have five.

Weey!

Whoa!

Through the station, out the other side.

It's 110 with me.

The net is out as well.

At 110 pounds, all quiet ahead.

CLIFF PARISI: 110 pounds.

Judy, don't be pleased.

Well, I'm sort of acting pleased.

- No, no, no don't.

- Don't be bitter.

- Yeah.

- [CHUCKLES] Don't be bitter.

NARRATOR: Now, that's a bit more like it.

A fabulous profit there for Cliff.

Well done.

We clawed it back with that one.

We do.

NARRATOR: Right, come on, Judy.

You're playing catch up with your 19th-century wastepaper bin now.

18 pounds.

18 pounds is bid.

It's going to do really well.

And 22.

25, 28.

32.

35, 38.

It's 40 pounds bid.

Any advance?

Happy with that, Phil?

Yeah, well it's just helped us a little bit, isn't it?

NARRATOR: Fantastic return on the bin.

Top marks.

I really, really rated that.

I think that-- - It looked lovely up there.

It did looked really nice.

I would have liked to have taken it home.

Yeah.

NARRATOR: Well, let's hope someone wants to take home Cliff's vintage railway lamp.

A good lamp there for 50 pounds.

Look at that.

Stands well.

50 bid.

Thank you.

50?

Gosh, you're a star on this, aren't you?

I hate this.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: For only 50 pounds, it's the maiden bid.

All done.

Doubled your money on that.

Well, that's a good little profit, isn't it?

I survived.

Well done, you.

NARRATOR: The auctioneer was right.

This Norfolk lot like their railway memorabilia.

Have you been out practicing?

[BOTH CHUCKLING] Are you sort of round the markets and the fairs every weekend?

What do you like?

What do you fancy?

Two to five.

3 pounds each.

Can't pay now?

Tuppence down.

Form a switch.

All the companies pay that.

Look at that, lady.

Your old man will chase you around the bedroom all day in that.

[BOTH LAUGHING] NARRATOR: You were wasted as a mechanic on EastEnders, I tell you.

They should have stuck you on a stall on Bridge Street.

Judy's up again now with her leather telescope this time.

I have 30, 32, 35, 38.

I have 40.

42, the gentlemen ahead of me at 42.

I'm out.

42, I'll take five.

It's 42 pounds, 45 standing.

48.

Go on, guv'nor.

Come on.

It's going to do a bit more.

Oh, you know you want it.

50, a new bid in the gallery.

At 50.

50 is more like it.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: It's 50 pounds with the lady.

Any advance?

It's a nice example.

There was nothing wrong with it.

It was good, it was clean, it was fresh.

NARRATOR: It might not have made as much as they'd hoped, but a profit's a profit.

Well, at least we didn't lose money.

No, no, no, no, which is a result of just-- What did you pay?

35 quid.

NARRATOR: The first of Cliff's silver lots now, the trumpet shaped vases and bonbon dish.

60 pounds for all the silver.

Oh, come on, surely.

40 pounds, surely, for what you have there.

40 bid.

Gallery is 40.

I'll take two.

At 40 pounds, 42, 45, 48, and 55, and 60.

60 at the front gallery.

We only need a bit more than that.

Good items for 60 pounds.

They will sell.

That's really disappointing, actually.

Lost 40 quid.

How much for that?

20.

NARRATOR: Well, that's a shame.

Hard luck, Cliff.

Sorry.

That was my idea to buy those.

And they were very pretty.

NARRATOR: Judy's last lot is up next, the paduak table picked up by Phil.

Start me at 100.

Oh, it's all gone quiet.

The rooms don't quite-- no one knows what to make of it.

No, they don't know.

70 on the net.

Oh, good.

It's on for 70.

At 75, sir.

80 bid.

85.

All of a sudden, there's someone that recognises it.

85 in the room.

95.

In the room at 95.

Any advance on 95 pounds?

100 is the bid on the table.

Oh, well done.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: 110.

In the room at 110.

Any advance?

110 pounds.

It will sell 110.

- That's good.

- That's good.

That's more than doubled your money.

It's really good.

NARRATOR: Judy finishes with a fabulous profit.

I have absolutely no idea where we are, who's winning this, or who's losing this.

I have no idea.

I think we were ahead.

And now, I think you've just jumped ahead.

So it does all hang on this.

And you hate this, so it doesn't look good.

[LAUGHS] NARRATOR: Here we go, the deciding lot.

Can Cliff trump Judy with his heart-shaped silver pin dish?

Where am I, say, for this one?

Start me at 50.

Come on, 50 quid ELIZABETH TALBOT: 50 pounds, a charming piece.

Oh, come on.

50 pounds.

40, if you will.

Oh, come on.

I start here at 28.

28, which is a low start at 28.

30 bid.

32, 35 and I'm out.

38, the gallery.

40 bid.

42, 45, 48, 50.

No.

No, stop it.

ELIZABETH TALBOT: Commissions are 50.

At 50 pounds bid.

I think you're just coming up to an open ditch.

[BOTH LAUGHING] ELIZABETH TALBOT: Any advance I'm 50 pounds?

It will sell.

How much profit did it make?

10?

- 20.

20.

That did better than my cars.

NARRATOR: Cliff ends on a profit.

But was it enough to win the trip?

It's been like that, really.

Really exciting.

Absolutely riveting all the way through.

We're setting on the seat.

Oh, this is selling now.

We better go.

We're up for sale.

We're for sale.

It's all right.

It doesn't come with us.

No.

We're not in the market.

NARRATOR: Ha-ha!

While our teams do a runner before they're sold off, let's find out who actually won.

Cliff and Catherine started with 400 pounds.

After paying auction costs, they sadly made a small loss of 13 pounds and 84 pence, ending their trip with 386 pounds and 16 pence.

Judy and Phil also kicked off with 400 pounds, but they pulled in a profit of 22 pounds and 54 pence, meaning that they are crowned today's winners, finishing with 422 pounds and 54 pence.

All profits go to children in need.

Well done!

Yes!

Ah!

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

No, I mean, it's not important.

It's just about taking part.

Exactly.

That's what we think.

It's for fun.

- But just one more?

- Yeah.

BOTH: Yeah!

You can make tea now, haven't you?

I've got to make tea for six months.

Yeah.

NARRATOR: Bad luck, old chap.

And on that note, it's time for our celebrities to bid a fond farewell.

Bye!

Toodle-oo.

God bless.

Bye.

BOTH: Bye!

Bye.

Sorry to see them go.

It's just been wonderful.

Yeah, an excuse to have a nice drive in the country in an old car.

Yeah.

Should we do it again?

I'd love to do it again.

We could do it next week.

JUDY PARFITT: [LAUGHS] It's been enormous fun, though, isn't it?

It's been fabulous.

I've really enjoyed it.

NARRATOR: Safe travels celebrity road trippers.
