Go on, then. 185 00:09:05,122 --> 00:09:08,121 So how many...? 19. 40 quid. 186 00:09:08,122 --> 00:09:11,881 19g? 40 quid. 19.2 grams. 187 00:09:11,882 --> 00:09:15,441 And I can tell you, a troy ounce is 31.1. 188 00:09:15,442 --> 00:09:18,241 If you're wondering what Thomas is going on about, 189 00:09:18,242 --> 00:09:21,601 A troy ounce is a unit of weight used for precious metals 190 00:09:21,602 --> 00:09:23,641 Like silver, gold and platinum. 191 00:09:23,642 --> 00:09:27,481 A troy ounce of silver is between £30 and £45, 192 00:09:27,482 --> 00:09:29,721 To scrap, to put in the pot. 193 00:09:29,722 --> 00:09:33,081 Not to even think about making something as pretty as that. 194 00:09:33,082 --> 00:09:36,280 OK. So you've got an idea in your head. Mm-hm. Um... 195 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,800 What's your very best? Probably 40. Not 38? 196 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,961 Yeah. Yeah? Is that a yes? Against my nature! 197 00:09:46,962 --> 00:09:50,721 Much as his better nature! Yeah? Good man. Well done. 198 00:09:50,722 --> 00:09:52,921 Shake the man's hand. Thank you, sir. 199 00:09:52,922 --> 00:09:55,481 That's it. £38. First item. 200 00:09:55,482 --> 00:09:57,601 Challenge done! 201 00:09:57,602 --> 00:10:00,601 Mm, we'll have to see about that, Thomas! 202 00:10:00,602 --> 00:10:03,761 The Blues are hoping their £38 brooch will meet 203 00:10:03,762 --> 00:10:06,001 My plants-or-flowers challenge. 204 00:10:06,002 --> 00:10:08,000 But is it a fern, or a feather? 205 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,721 Let's go and do some more shopping. Two more to get! 206 00:10:12,722 --> 00:10:15,041 While the Blues move on... We have to hurry. 207 00:10:15,042 --> 00:10:17,641 It's 17 minutes, and I haven't got anything yet. 208 00:10:17,642 --> 00:10:20,241 Don't worry... The Reds have finally upped the pace. 209 00:10:20,242 --> 00:10:22,801 See what it says. Decimal... 210 00:10:22,802 --> 00:10:24,801 Maybe from France, perhaps. Yeah. 211 00:10:24,802 --> 00:10:26,881 Are you going to find out the price, then, Vijoo? 212 00:10:26,882 --> 00:10:28,561 Looks pretty. 213 00:10:28,562 --> 00:10:31,961 No? 214 00:10:31,962 --> 00:10:33,681 No. 215 00:10:33,682 --> 00:10:36,032 At least the Blues have a spring in their step! 216 00:10:37,560 --> 00:10:41,361 Right. We've nailed our challenge. We're quite relaxed with that. 217 00:10:41,362 --> 00:10:44,801 Actually, I think the boys are having second thoughts. 218 00:10:44,802 --> 00:10:47,121 I'm questioning whether it might be a feather. 219 00:10:47,122 --> 00:10:49,641 Oh, good point. It did look like a feather. 220 00:10:49,642 --> 00:10:51,521 I mean, it struck me as a fern straight away. 221 00:10:51,522 --> 00:10:53,401 It did look like a fern to me, as well. 222 00:10:53,402 --> 00:10:55,641 But I know what you mean. Because a fern would have a... 223 00:10:55,642 --> 00:10:57,361 A... A spring, yeah, 224 00:10:57,362 --> 00:11:00,081 And then it would have the leaves coming off it, maybe. 225 00:11:00,082 --> 00:11:03,441 And that didn't. Yeah. So shall we sort of... 226 00:11:03,442 --> 00:11:06,401 We're happy with it. Yeah, yeah. We got it for a good price. Yeah. 227 00:11:06,402 --> 00:11:09,241 Shall we think about finding another garden or floral item? 228 00:11:09,242 --> 00:11:11,561 I think that'd probably be a good Idea. Would that be a good idea, 229 00:11:11,562 --> 00:11:13,641 Just to... Because we can do that. Yeah. 230 00:11:13,642 --> 00:11:16,281 We've had a realisation. OK. Yeah. 231 00:11:16,282 --> 00:11:19,361 Indeed, Thomas. And you're just in time to put things right. 232 00:11:19,362 --> 00:11:23,401 You should listen to the boys. They are gardeners, after all! 233 00:11:23,402 --> 00:11:26,441 Over with the Reds, can Caroline rally her troops? 234 00:11:26,442 --> 00:11:29,161 Now, is this harder than you thought? 235 00:11:29,162 --> 00:11:31,641 It's much harder than I thought! There's no... 236 00:11:31,642 --> 00:11:35,121 Because time is just flying away And I don't see jewellery anywhere. 237 00:11:35,122 --> 00:11:37,641 No. Ah! Here's the jug and bowl. 238 00:11:37,642 --> 00:11:40,041 So you've returned to the Royal Doulton. 239 00:11:40,042 --> 00:11:41,960 Does that mean you want it for £100? 240 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,401 Let's take it. So let's find... Here is the lady. 241 00:11:46,402 --> 00:11:50,521 Yes. How much was it? Oh, yes. Hello. 242 00:11:50,522 --> 00:11:54,241 Hello. How much was your best price? 100 was the best. 100? Yes. 243 00:11:54,242 --> 00:11:55,800 What about £99? 244 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,481 All right, £99. £99? Thank you very much. Thank you. 245 00:12:01,482 --> 00:12:04,161 Finally, Reds, you're off the mark 246 00:12:04,162 --> 00:12:06,841 With this jug and bowl for £99. 247 00:12:06,842 --> 00:12:10,001 And you've met your big spend. Well done. 248 00:12:10,002 --> 00:12:14,041 Now, Blues, this would meet Your plants-or-flowers challenge. 249 00:12:14,042 --> 00:12:16,521 Is that Royal Crown Derby? It is. It's beautiful, isn't it? 250 00:12:16,522 --> 00:12:18,961 With the poppies on it, the flowers. 251 00:12:18,962 --> 00:12:20,921 And how much is it? It's £100. 252 00:12:20,922 --> 00:12:23,961 So you've got that sort of, like, That Art Nouveau style to it 253 00:12:23,962 --> 00:12:26,841 With these sinuous... Sinuous lines. 254 00:12:26,842 --> 00:12:29,001 It's got flowers. Got flowers. 255 00:12:29,002 --> 00:12:31,521 I think that's a rather attractive Royal Crown Derby piece. 256 00:12:31,522 --> 00:12:34,121 And I like the flowers. What do you think? 257 00:12:34,122 --> 00:12:36,481 I like it. Yeah, I do like it. Yeah. 258 00:12:36,482 --> 00:12:38,681 Would you take a better offer for it? 259 00:12:38,682 --> 00:12:41,761 If we're very, very close. Yeah. How close? Like, £80? 260 00:12:41,762 --> 00:12:43,401 80? No, not close enough. 261 00:12:43,402 --> 00:12:45,961 What would... What would you say? £90 would buy it. 262 00:12:45,962 --> 00:12:48,561 85? Would a deal... £90 would buy it. £90. 263 00:12:48,562 --> 00:12:50,641 But that sounds quite firm, doesn't it? It does. 264 00:12:50,642 --> 00:12:52,561 I think there's a chance of a profit on that, 265 00:12:52,562 --> 00:12:54,761 Because it's a lovely piece. It is different. 266 00:12:54,762 --> 00:12:56,161 It is lovely, isn't it? What do you think? 267 00:12:56,162 --> 00:12:57,921 So I think as we were nervous about the fern, 268 00:12:57,922 --> 00:12:59,921 Which could be a fern/feather... Yeah. 269 00:12:59,922 --> 00:13:02,401 This then replaces that for the challenge. 270 00:13:02,402 --> 00:13:05,161 Yes. Because it's floral. Yeah. And it nails our big spend. 271 00:13:05,162 --> 00:13:07,841 Brilliant. Yeah? Yeah. Let's do it. Yeah? 272 00:13:07,842 --> 00:13:09,881 There's enough yeahs there, I think! That's a yes. 273 00:13:09,882 --> 00:13:12,121 You're sure, Sir? You're very kind. 274 00:13:12,122 --> 00:13:15,641 Well done, Blues. Good call. The Royal Crown Derby 275 00:13:15,642 --> 00:13:17,841 Floral urn replaces the feather brooch 276 00:13:17,842 --> 00:13:20,081 To meet your plant-or-flowers challenge. 277 00:13:20,082 --> 00:13:23,441 And at £90, it also meets your big spend. 278 00:13:23,442 --> 00:13:25,041 Over with the Reds, 279 00:13:25,042 --> 00:13:27,841 Caroline's on the case for their challenge. 280 00:13:27,842 --> 00:13:30,881 Now, there might be some antique jewellery in here, 281 00:13:30,882 --> 00:13:34,121 So have a look and see if there's anything you fancy. 282 00:13:34,122 --> 00:13:37,041 You see these two brooches? Uh-huh. Oh, that's beautiful. 283 00:13:37,042 --> 00:13:38,921 They're most definitely antique. 284 00:13:38,922 --> 00:13:40,961 And it looks like gold, but it's not. 285 00:13:40,962 --> 00:13:43,521 It's in what's called Pinchbeck. I see, OK. Right. 286 00:13:43,522 --> 00:13:47,161 Pinchbeck was invented in the 18th century to imitate gold, 287 00:13:47,162 --> 00:13:50,561 But it's actually a cheaper alloy of copper and zinc. 288 00:13:50,562 --> 00:13:53,041 That looks very beautiful, I think. It is beautiful. 289 00:13:53,042 --> 00:13:55,361 And it's very wearable. Yeah. Would you wear it? 290 00:13:55,362 --> 00:13:57,961 Of course, I would happily wear This. Would you?

Yeah. So I gave her a little burger, 332 00:16:02,282 --> 00:16:04,521 And I had ketchup dripping down her dress. 333 00:16:04,522 --> 00:16:06,601 So that was the start of it. 334 00:16:06,602 --> 00:16:09,201 Lucy's work is a form of bricolage - 335 00:16:09,202 --> 00:16:10,841 Taking existing objects 336 00:16:10,842 --> 00:16:13,561 And transforming them into something entirely new, 337 00:16:13,562 --> 00:16:18,041 Blending traditional ceramics With modern culture and humour. 338 00:16:18,042 --> 00:16:20,521 So, Lucy, what's your inspiration? 339 00:16:20,522 --> 00:16:22,961 My inspiration is literally life. 340 00:16:22,962 --> 00:16:26,721 It's what I see on TV. It's what I hear on the radio. 341 00:16:26,722 --> 00:16:28,521 And then I react to it. 342 00:16:28,522 --> 00:16:30,001 So we've got our couple 343 00:16:30,002 --> 00:16:32,681 Having a bit of a kiss here in their sportswear. 344 00:16:32,682 --> 00:16:35,841 We've got our girl here eating a kebab. 345 00:16:35,842 --> 00:16:39,241 Sometimes political, sometimes a bit subversive and dark, 346 00:16:39,242 --> 00:16:43,761 But I like to keep a humour running Through everything that I do. 347 00:16:43,762 --> 00:16:46,681 I feel as though with this work you don't have buyers. 348 00:16:46,682 --> 00:16:50,321 You're an artist, so really you must have good collectors. 349 00:16:50,322 --> 00:16:52,921 But obviously you don't just work with figurines. 350 00:16:52,922 --> 00:16:55,681 That's where it started. But when did you start to 351 00:16:55,682 --> 00:16:57,161 Expand your repertoire? 352 00:16:57,162 --> 00:17:01,481 Well, the shop fronts is more Of a recent project for myself, 353 00:17:01,482 --> 00:17:03,481 But I noticed about three years ago 354 00:17:03,482 --> 00:17:06,161 That the high street was really changing. 355 00:17:06,162 --> 00:17:09,041 So we've got our traditional Shops like the butcher, the baker, 356 00:17:09,042 --> 00:17:10,921 The candlestick-maker 357 00:17:10,922 --> 00:17:15,561 Being replaced by the vape shops And the nail bars and the chains. 358 00:17:15,562 --> 00:17:17,161 So we're really losing that sort of 359 00:17:17,162 --> 00:17:19,041 Independent spirit on the high street. 360 00:17:19,042 --> 00:17:21,641 It's a sign of our times. It really is. 361 00:17:21,642 --> 00:17:25,041 And charity shops - are they the best hunting ground, 362 00:17:25,042 --> 00:17:27,961 Or do you visit antiques fairs like Ardingly? 363 00:17:27,962 --> 00:17:30,601 Do you go to antique shops? I do them all. 364 00:17:30,602 --> 00:17:35,281 Yeah.
