Benny Hill, his comedy was enjoyed back in the day when there was only 2 genders. Nobody admits to liking the benny Hill show anymore, it's like people who like the comedy from back then are like Ann Frank, they have to hide from the woke. I will probably be cancelled for this comment and dissappear from you tube forevermore, no sign that I ever existed here at all.
I love the realness, the genuine not-trying-to-be-someone-else of all these people. Please dear TV people, Can we have a few nice cosy shows with lovely people again? Just to balance out the shiny, over-produced, licked, glossy, alienating, 'everybody's wanting to be a star' narcissistic exercises? Cheers!
artistjoh I do agree with that. I think Natasha and Christina do quite well. But I can’t stand Charlie Ross. He thinks he is funny and he’s not. In fact I don’t watch it when he is on. Needs to stick to his car auctioneering in the states!!!
On SepticSceptic's Tip: Yes, you could have just cut it but I think the fast forward bit was great, almost essential to get the scale of the event, give it context. I thought it was great because we could see what happened before the tea cosy auction without it taking 15 mins - nice, fast-tracked build up. So, if I were you Roger, I'd ignore the tip - no sense of fun. Note: I've made it clear that that's my opinion so don't need to be told that if anyone feels the need to tell me.
Rosco. Short answer: Why? Long answer: Hahaha - what a curious response - almost every comment in RU-vid is an opinion - do you want only those that are different from yours to be 'kept' (to the opinion holder's self) and not published? Very funny ... see if you can be even funnier with your reply to this (will you feel the need to swear - lots of writers do - when they run out of anything valid to say).
Rosco - my last sentence said I didn't need to be told it was just my opinion. You told me not to share my opinions. They are quite different things. I'd give up now if I were you. I'm going to because I don't think you'll ever get it. Go tell someone else to keep their opinion to themselves.
A teapot did make £500 from £30. Still have that episode taped. Miss Tim. Though he does come here as we have a whole country village dedicated to antiques only. Oh so many shops. Tim comes and does appraisals. He's such a great guy, really genuine.
OMG my ear holes 😭😭😭. Skip to 3:39 if you care about your hearing. They should've done an interview with the buyer why they brought it at such a high price. Might've been an interesting story.
Love this show and Tim is fantastic he reminds me of Terry Thomas...unfortunately the show has been ruined by a millennial editor with no sense of humour..
The new format makes it much more difficult to make s profit; why shouldn't contestants spend as little as they wish? Plus never going to Great Western Auctions, the place you were virtually guaranteed profit.
+123TauruZ321 Sorry about taking so long to notice your question. The squeaky bits of the audio are an unintended but happy side-effect of my editing process: the bits of the film to be fast forwarded are compressed on the timeline (e.g. 5 minutes worth down to 30 seconds worth) and this affects the sound accordingly. No squeaky little animals were used in the making of this piece.
+Roger Sigrist I think what he means is this clip is so LOUD, I nearly had an accident. My wife from 2 rooms away was shouting "what the hell is that?". I had to dash to turn the volume right down.
Yes, i was not talking about "squeaky bits" .. i don't even know what that means. The whole sound of the video is weird, very loud, the middle and upper tone of the sound is extremely loud and the bass is turned off. Weird. But thanks for the explanation. I think that is fun ^^ Imagine playing that extremely loud in the middle of the night to bother your neighbors.
His son was kicked out of his private school for being caught selling drugs. Don't know if that is why he was removed however surely the father can't be punished for the crimes of the son! Unless he got it from Tims personal stash
Tim was the worst host of bargain hunt he made a good program rubbish .the very best host of bargain hunt was David Dickinson he made the program.all the outhers rubbish host.bring back David Dickinson from itv
Sheer dumb luck , he may be a good auctioneer but couldn't pick his nose when it comes to helping his team pick a profit ! Pratt by name and by nature,,
Tea cosy - I hate tea. I'm 61 and when I was small my parents would put loose tea and cold water in an aluminium tea pot, pop in on the gas stove, boil it up and let it stew for 15 minutes. There's worse to come. . . Into the cups it went, smelling like burnt cork then it would have three spoons of sugar and a glug or two of sterilised milk (bull's milk colloquily). Coffee anyone ?
My uncles averred that tea was not brewed correctly unless the teaspoon stood up straight in it. Hyperbole obviously, but I'm sure they'd have enjoyed your parents' offering. :)
@@LyokoisGreat2 Boil the water separately, pour it straight onto the tea or teabags in the tea pot, don't let it cool before pouring, then let the tea steep for a few minutes, not more than 5 ideally, and then pour into the cup with a dash a fresh milk in the bottom of the cup and there you have it, a delicious refreshing drink. Do not use cream, sterilized milk, carnation milk or non-dairy creamer, All of these will make it taste disgusting. Add sugar if you have to, but it is much better without. AND, very important pour the milk into the cup first, not last, the difference in the rate the milk heats up makes all the difference to the taste. They did research on that, and I did my own research too. I did a blindfold test on a number of cups of tea and new which had the milk in first and which had the milk in last 100% of the time, I could tell by the taste.
The speed of this exerpt should really be an option to the usual guff we have to endure to finally watch Tim commiserate and possibly hand over a paltry sum after each show. .
It's so unprofessional to laugh... The auction might be funny to some but others clearly want that item and if I was bidding hearing people laughing at me I'd know they've paid £10 for it and i'm wasting my money...
D CONWAY so what??? If you want it who gives a shit? Just cause they don't see the value doesn't mean you won't pay for it. Collectors want what they want; it's not like they are just looking to resell it and if so they KNOW the worth.
My dear Mum always used tea cosies, she would be highly insulted if you gave her a teabag. The cups had to be fine bone china as well. That 1920s generation I guess.
Begun to really dislike this programme. So many times they get people to put silver and gold items into auction when they would be far better off scrapping them for cash.
Bargain hunt has never been the same since the parting of Tim . They never could find any one to replace him . Now its like lucky dip as to who presents the show but no one with same sense of dry humor as him. I don't watch it any more as I only watched it for him 🤷♂
I don't mean to brag but I have signed bargain hunt postcard from dickinson erase, my landlady was a producer on show, she had nothing but nice things to say about time....as for dave she was silent
