0:00:02 > 0:00:05Welcome to the programme that takes treasure hunting out of the world of fiction and makes it a reality
0:00:05 > 0:00:09as we hunt for gems in the homes of people that we can take to auction
0:00:09 > 0:00:12and hopefully make a tidy sum for their owners,
0:00:12 > 0:00:14because you just never know what you're going to find
0:00:14 > 0:00:17when you start to rummage on Cash In The Attic.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Coming up on Cash In The Attic,
0:00:40 > 0:00:44we go large with a stunning piece of Carlton Ware.
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Flipping 'eck, Jack!
0:00:46 > 0:00:49That's a bit big for your cornflakes in the morning, isn't it?
0:00:49 > 0:00:51And we downsize with some Royal Doulton Toby jugs.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55Unless my eyes deceive me, I have to say that what I'm looking at here
0:00:55 > 0:00:58has to be the smallest Toby jug I've ever, ever seen!
0:00:58 > 0:01:00I have to agree with you, he certainly is!
0:01:00 > 0:01:05But will the bidders have a healthy appetite for our collectables come auction day?
0:01:05 > 0:01:07£420. 450, new man.
0:01:07 > 0:01:10- 450!- 500!
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Find out as the hammer falls.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Today I'm in the Yorkshire Dales at the village of Colburn
0:01:18 > 0:01:20and I'm about to meet a man
0:01:20 > 0:01:22who has a talent for building,
0:01:22 > 0:01:26a passion for his local football team, and a really big heart.
0:01:26 > 0:01:3080-year-old football fanatic Jack Elliott
0:01:30 > 0:01:33began an apprenticeship in carpentry when he was just 14
0:01:33 > 0:01:38and over the years he added building, architecture and teaching to his list of qualifications.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43He met the love of his life, Joyce, when he was 17,
0:01:43 > 0:01:47they enjoyed the next 60 years together, and have four children.
0:01:47 > 0:01:52In 1984 Jack put all his handiwork skills to the test
0:01:52 > 0:01:56when he single-handedly built their dream home in North Yorkshire.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58He even landscaped the garden himself.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Sadly, Joyce passed away three years ago
0:02:01 > 0:02:04and Jack has decided that the time has come for a bit of a clear out.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07His daughters Ruth and Lynne are in to help,
0:02:07 > 0:02:09as is the Cash In The Attic team.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13Jack and your two daughters, Lynne and Ruth,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16are you thinking of going fishing?
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- We could do that here!- You made this pond, didn't you, Jack?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23- Yeah.- And behind you, the house that Jack built.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24It is indeed.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26You're something of a master craftsman, I'm told.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Some people think so.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31Now, why did you call in Cash In The Attic, Jack?
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Because I thought it was a good idea to put something back
0:02:34 > 0:02:38into all the different groups that brought my wife and I happiness.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41- And how much do you think that's going to take?- About £800.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- So you're something of a collector then, Jack?- Well, I have been.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- Ah, yes, I think...- I would say so! - I would say so, yeah!
0:02:48 > 0:02:50A lot of dusting to do.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Well, it sounds as if you've got a house full of stuff in there,
0:02:52 > 0:02:56and I tell you who else is there at the moment, I didn't just come myself,
0:02:56 > 0:03:00I brought Jonty Hearnden with me, who knows a thing or two about collectables.
0:03:00 > 0:03:05- So, shall we go into the house and find him and see what he's come across?- Definitely.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Now, his daughters did say there are plenty of items in the house
0:03:08 > 0:03:12that need dusting, and they're not wrong!
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Every shelf is crammed full of them.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Now, this is good news for us and I know that our expert
0:03:17 > 0:03:20is going to be delighted to see such a wealth of goodies.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- There you go. Hi, Jonty!- Hi.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24- Look at this.- Flipping 'eck, Jack!
0:03:24 > 0:03:27That's a bit big for your cornflakes in the morning!
0:03:27 > 0:03:29It is.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33- Whatever made you buy that?- Well, I thought my wife would like it
0:03:33 > 0:03:36and I bought it specially for a special present for her.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Did you? Why did you think she might like it?
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Because she's actually steeped in history and I'd already bought
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Toby jugs with King Henry and his six wives
0:03:44 > 0:03:47and I thought this would match that quite nicely.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50You're absolutely right. It's absolutely stunning,
0:03:50 > 0:03:55but the great thing about this punchbowl, is the fact that it's
0:03:55 > 0:03:59a limited edition bowl and if we look at the information on the underside,
0:03:59 > 0:04:01because all the information is here,
0:04:01 > 0:04:05is that this bowl is one of 250, and this is number 18,
0:04:05 > 0:04:09but the great news is that this bowl was made by Carlton Ware,
0:04:09 > 0:04:13and Carlton Ware are highly desirable, very collectable,
0:04:13 > 0:04:15so that's incredibly good news for us.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19The most important thing to really appreciate about this
0:04:19 > 0:04:20is that all the decoration,
0:04:20 > 0:04:24all the coloured decoration on this bowl would all be hand done,
0:04:24 > 0:04:25so there's an awful lot of detail.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28I mean, just look at the great man himself.
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Look at all the detailing there.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32You bought this at auction, didn't you, Jack? How much did you pay?
0:04:32 > 0:04:37I paid £500 and I thought that it was worth every penny
0:04:37 > 0:04:39because my wife would really adore it.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41It's such a lovely thing that you've said that,
0:04:41 > 0:04:44but at auction I would say something like £300 to £400.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47Let's go and see what we can add to it to take to auction.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Come on, Jack. Follow me.
0:04:49 > 0:04:54Ruth has started her search in the kitchen and she digs out a really pretty porcelain bowl
0:04:54 > 0:04:57that she remembers once belonging to Jack's Aunt Nellie.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00It was made in France by Sampson of Paris
0:05:00 > 0:05:04and is in the Chinese famille rose style.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Jonty thinks the bidders will be happy to pay upwards of £60
0:05:08 > 0:05:10for this quite charming piece.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12- Ah, there you are, Lynne.- Oh, hello.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14An amazing collection we've got here.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18- It is, yeah.- So how was this collection accumulated?
0:05:18 > 0:05:23My mum took a liking to Toby jugs quite a long, long time ago
0:05:23 > 0:05:26and any time they saw a Toby jug my dad would buy it for her.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29- Some people get diamond and jewels... - My mum got Toby jugs, yeah!
0:05:29 > 0:05:33But I think it's charming. It sounds like your dad all over.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- It does, yeah. Indeed.- Now, Lynne, unless my eyes deceive me,
0:05:36 > 0:05:38what I'm looking at here has to be
0:05:38 > 0:05:41the smallest Toby jug I've ever, ever seen!
0:05:41 > 0:05:42I think he certainly is!
0:05:42 > 0:05:46To be truthful, my dad would probably like to keep hold of that
0:05:46 > 0:05:48because it is pretty special.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50So, as far as value is concerned
0:05:50 > 0:05:53I think the star items have to be Henry VIII and his six wives.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55- Oh, I think so, I think so.- They...
0:05:55 > 0:05:58You know, somebody will really want those,
0:05:58 > 0:06:01so, be it a collector or a dealer, that's a definite.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02Right.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04But as a collection we're looking
0:06:04 > 0:06:07roughly between £250 and £350.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- OK.- And hopefully a lot more than that.- That would be good.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14But will the bidders be fighting over those Toby jugs at auction?
0:06:14 > 0:06:18We've got a really determined bidder at the back of the room here, Jack.
0:06:18 > 0:06:2090. Five. 100.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Only time will tell.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Jack continues our rummage in the bedroom.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27He pulls four framed landscapes
0:06:27 > 0:06:31by the artist B Ward from the back of a wardrobe.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Jonty values them at £50 to £70.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39We're off to a really good start here
0:06:39 > 0:06:41in North Yorkshire in Jack's delightful home.
0:06:41 > 0:06:48and there's lots of evidence around to show just how football mad he is.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Well, that's a nice thing to have, Jack,
0:06:52 > 0:06:58"Colburn Town Football Club 2008-2009, Club Man, Jack Elliott."
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- That's me!- And another three to go with it.- Certainly, yeah.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- So this is THE football team, is it? - This is the football team, yes.
0:07:05 > 0:07:09- You are passionate about football, aren't you?- I certainly am.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13- So how did that start?- I've always had an interest in football
0:07:13 > 0:07:17and I think now I've been watching or playing football for 69 years.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21Good heavens above! You met your wife playing footie, didn't you?
0:07:21 > 0:07:25I certainly did. When I was about 18 I was selected to play
0:07:25 > 0:07:27for the Under-18s in the district.
0:07:27 > 0:07:32The first game, and I was playing on the wing when this girl was on
0:07:32 > 0:07:36the touchline, and at the end of the match she asked me
0:07:36 > 0:07:40- if I wanted to go to the cinema. - She dated you, then?
0:07:40 > 0:07:44She certainly did. It carried on for about three years and then we
0:07:44 > 0:07:47got married and we were married for 55 years before I lost her.
0:07:47 > 0:07:52I'm sure Joyce will be with us on the day we go to auction, making sure we get really good prices
0:07:52 > 0:07:55for everything that goes under the hammer.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Shall we find Jonty and see what else he's found for us?- Certainly.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Whilst we've been chatting, Jonty continued his search.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03He spots a bookshelf
0:08:03 > 0:08:06filled with a complete set of The Encyclopaedia Britannica.
0:08:06 > 0:08:07They date from the 1880s
0:08:07 > 0:08:12Jonty thinks that this set of 35 volumes, complete with original bookshelf,
0:08:12 > 0:08:16deserves to make upwards of £40 to £60 at auction.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25Jack has dug out an army belt which used to belong to his uncle who fought in the First World War.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29It's not in great condition, but Jonty thinks it's real value
0:08:29 > 0:08:33is in the cap badges that are attached and values them at £30-£40.
0:08:37 > 0:08:38Ah, Ruth?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- Yeah?- I think I've found some buried treasure.- Oh, wow!
0:08:41 > 0:08:46I remember that. My father bought it about 30 years or more ago.
0:08:46 > 0:08:47- Really?- Yeah.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49It's a fob chain, although at the end of it,
0:08:49 > 0:08:51rather than having a pocket watch...
0:08:51 > 0:08:54- Yeah.- ..we have a beautiful little sovereign holder.
0:08:54 > 0:09:00So, inside we have this lovely gold sovereign, Queen Victoria's head on it.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02And we should have a date on there. 1889. There we go.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04Oh, wow! I didn't realise it was that old.
0:09:04 > 0:09:09But not only have we got a gold-plated sovereign holder,
0:09:09 > 0:09:14- but this is a lovely, solid, nine carat gold fob chain.- Oh, really?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17And every single link is marked to prove that it's gold.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- Great. Fantastic.- Now, as far as value is concerned I think if we aimed at a low figure
0:09:21 > 0:09:24we're going to get everyone frothing at the mouth
0:09:24 > 0:09:27wanting to buy the gold, so it's a question of pitching it right.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31- I think if we go in as low as £120 to £150...- OK.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35..then we should maybe even get up to £200 quite easily.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- Oh, OK. That'd be good. - You happy about that?
0:09:37 > 0:09:41Yeah. Might not put a smile on Queen Victoria's face, but it will on mine.
0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Excellent. OK, let's carry on. - Yeah, great.
0:09:43 > 0:09:48Jack's cupboards are filled with items that he no longer uses,
0:09:48 > 0:09:50like this old camera.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55In fact, it's just one of many that he bought when he was planning to take up photography.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58So they're off to auction with a £20 to £30 price tag.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Ruth has discovered
0:10:03 > 0:10:07a very fine gold pocket watch that was made by Thomas Russell and son.
0:10:07 > 0:10:12There are four more that Jack's collected over the years.
0:10:12 > 0:10:15Jonty's very impressed
0:10:15 > 0:10:19and thinks we'll easily reach his £250 to £350 estimate.
0:10:19 > 0:10:23Jonty, are you busy for a minute? Can you take a look at this?
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- Oh, look at that.- Yeah.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Now, let's have a look. Can I have a look at this first of all?
0:10:27 > 0:10:30Because this looks very interesting, here.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32This is a German engine.
0:10:32 > 0:10:37And Lima were known for making very unusual train sets.
0:10:37 > 0:10:42If you think about it, how commercial is a German diesel engine in Britain?
0:10:42 > 0:10:46- I don't think very commercial at all. - I mean, we all know about Hornby.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50- Yes.- Because Hornby of course made famous train sets, didn't they?
0:10:50 > 0:10:54Well, where market leaders go of course other people follow
0:10:54 > 0:10:55and Lima was a follower.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57They were in business for about 50 years.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00They started in 1950, but they've now gone out of business.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03So how much do you think we might get at auction?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06We're looking at between £80 and £120, how about that?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Oh, I think that'll be fine.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10We're on the right tracks, shall we see what else we can find?
0:11:10 > 0:11:12- Let's go.- Thank you.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17We've found such a variety of items to take to auction, but with the day
0:11:17 > 0:11:22drawing to a close there's just time for the one last sweep of the house.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27In the hallway, Lynne spots two prints by the artis, David Bates,
0:11:27 > 0:11:31who had a successful career as a porcelain painter for Royal Worcester.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35Jonty values them at a modest £20-£30.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39- Jonty?- Yes?- We've got these.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42- This lovely little clock.- Yes.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- And we've got also another couple. - What do you know about the collection?
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Not very much, except for my father bought them at a boot sale.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53- And why did he buy them?- Because of the name, because they're made by Elliott & Son.- Ah!
0:11:53 > 0:11:55So the family name and that's the connection.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59- Is that a family member who made the clocks?- Sadly not.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01Well, what we're looking at here
0:12:01 > 0:12:05is a little clock known as a carriage clock and all carriage clocks have a handle on the top.
0:12:05 > 0:12:10And as the name suggests, carriage clocks were designed to be transported around.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12It was your own personal timepiece.
0:12:12 > 0:12:17They were very fashionable in the late 19th century and early 20th century.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- But these, I think they're a little later...- Oh, OK.
0:12:19 > 0:12:23Because most carriage clocks were a lot larger than this.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25So, if you can see, we've got our three here,
0:12:25 > 0:12:27you can see how similar they are in size,
0:12:27 > 0:12:32but a regular carriage clock, a period carriage clock, would be almost twice the size.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37- You're sure we can sell this collection?- Definitely.- Well, let's tell the others the good news.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Estimate at auction between £140 and £180.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43I think we've had a pretty good day today.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47- Wonderful.- We've seen some lovely things and if we add that money
0:12:47 > 0:12:50to everything else that Jonty's looked at
0:12:50 > 0:12:53and we can conservatively take his lowest estimate on everything...
0:12:53 > 0:12:59Now, £800 was the amount you wanted to raise for the three organisations within the village.
0:12:59 > 0:13:06Well, I can tell you that we should be able to make £1,360!
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Wow!
0:13:08 > 0:13:10That would be brilliant.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12That's not bad, is it?
0:13:12 > 0:13:15- Not bad? Great!- Great, well done.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19We've had a delightful day in North Yorkshire.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22What an array of items we've amassed for auction.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26There's the magnificent gold and silver pocket watches.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28If the right buyers are in the room
0:13:28 > 0:13:32these could soar through their £250 to £350 estimate.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35The vast collection of character and Toby jugs.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39We're looking for upwards of £250.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44And who could forget the limited edition Carlton Ware punchbowl?
0:13:44 > 0:13:46The workmanship is truly stunning,
0:13:46 > 0:13:50but Jack paid more than Jonty's £300 estimate.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Will he make his money back on sale day?
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Still to come on Cash In The Attic,
0:13:57 > 0:14:01there's delight as some of our items prove highly popular in the saleroom.
0:14:01 > 0:14:05- That's what you call a belter of a result!- Yeah!
0:14:05 > 0:14:08And concern as to the desirability of others.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Did... Did you like them, girls?
0:14:10 > 0:14:13I thought they were a bit, like, painting by numbers, personally.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17But if they do well today I might like them more.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Will we make our target?
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Be there when the hammer falls.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31Well, it's been quite a while since we met Jack and his lovely daughters
0:14:31 > 0:14:33in North Yorkshire and learnt of
0:14:33 > 0:14:38the sad death of his beloved wife, but also of his plan to be able to
0:14:38 > 0:14:43make a donation in her memory to some of the organisations with which she was involved.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45So, we've brought all of his things here today
0:14:45 > 0:14:47to Silverwoods in Clitheroe
0:14:47 > 0:14:52and we should be able to make that £800 target of his - and some, perhaps.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58This popular Lancashire auction house holds a sale of antiques,
0:14:58 > 0:15:03collectables and furniture once a month and it's usually very well attended.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07There seems to be an abundance of fine porcelain here today, which
0:15:07 > 0:15:10means that our fabulous Carlton Ware punchbowl will be in good company.
0:15:10 > 0:15:14I'd love Jack and his daughters to make as much money as they can.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17Hi, Jack, Lynne and Ruth.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21Well, you've just got minutes to go and that'll be the last time you'll see that.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22I'll be sorry to lose it, actually.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25But you have got some terrific things coming up today
0:15:25 > 0:15:29and you don't want to have to take any of them home with you, do you?
0:15:29 > 0:15:32- Not really, no.- Definitely not. - Especially the books!- Absolutely.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36Well, the saleroom is beginning to fill up, so shall we go and take our
0:15:36 > 0:15:42places and keep fingers crossed for that £800 and some? Come on.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45It looks like we've got a full house today, which is great news.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48We take up our positions in time for our first lot.
0:15:48 > 0:15:53It's the very elegant famille rose bowl made by Sampson Of Paris.
0:15:53 > 0:15:5530, then? 20 quickly. £20.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57£20 and two.
0:15:57 > 0:15:58Oh, started at 20. Pretty low.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Anybody else then, now? At £20. And 22. Be quick then, now.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04All quite sure this time at £20?
0:16:04 > 0:16:06All done.
0:16:06 > 0:16:10- That was a disappointment, wasn't it?- Well, it's all right. - You win some, you lose some.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Not the start we were hoping for,
0:16:12 > 0:16:14but Jack and the girls don't seem too upset.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18I think we'll just bank the money and move on.
0:16:18 > 0:16:22I can only assume that the porcelain buyers were saving their
0:16:22 > 0:16:26money for our next item, and what an item it is!
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Well, it's Henry VIII and his six wives.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30Right, a bit of a rarity.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Who will start me at what for this one? £100 and straight in.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34100, any of you?
0:16:34 > 0:16:39- Straight in at 100, Jack. - 110. 110. 120. 130? 130. 140 now.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- Going quickly.- 130 in the room.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43We're looking for 140. 150.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47- At £150. 160. 170.- In the middle of the room, new bidder.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51170. We're looking at 180 now. All quite sure at £170?
0:16:53 > 0:16:57- I'm disappointed by that. - You thought it was going to make a lot more than that.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58Yes, yes, absolutely.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01It's fair to say that we had really high hopes for
0:17:01 > 0:17:05the magnificent punchbowl, but sadly it wasn't to be.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09Can our luck change with the massive collection of Toby and character jugs?
0:17:09 > 0:17:13The auction house has split them into three separate lots
0:17:13 > 0:17:16and we're looking for at least £250 in total.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20There are 14 of these. Right, £30 for all the lot.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23At £30. And 32 now for all the 14 together.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25- At £30.- £30 for the jugs.
0:17:25 > 0:17:2932. 35. 38? All done at £38.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31£38.
0:17:31 > 0:17:36£50 here. 50 bid. 50 and five. 60.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39Five. 65. 70 now. £70. 75.
0:17:39 > 0:17:44- 80? At 75 at the back. - We've got a determined bidder at the back of the room.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47- 90. Five. 100.- He's still nodding.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48And ten. 120?
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Now I've £110 at the back then.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52All done at £110.
0:17:52 > 0:17:55- Thank you.- 110, that's good.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57110 for the second lot. The next lot coming up now.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01Right, lot 43 and you have Henry VIII and six wives.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04There you go, all of the Royal Doulton character jugs in lot 43.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- 100 bid.- 100 we bid already.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10At £100. 110. 120. 130. 140.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14150. 160. 170? At 160 up here.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16Yes!
0:18:16 > 0:18:19We're looking for 170. At £160. Where is 170 this time then, now?
0:18:19 > 0:18:24Are you all quite sure? All done at £160.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26£308.
0:18:26 > 0:18:28- Oh, fantastic.- Good.- Well done.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31What a roller coaster that was,
0:18:31 > 0:18:34but we hit the middle of Jonty's estimate in the end.
0:18:34 > 0:18:39There are sighs of relief all round as we have our first above estimate sale of the day.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41And the collection of cameras soon follows suit.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47At 25. And 28 this time. 28. Quick as a flash, come on!
0:18:47 > 0:18:49At 25, 28. Anybody else? 28.
0:18:49 > 0:18:53- 28.- £30. And two. At 30 with me.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57- On the internet, they're bidding. - That's good.- At £30. And 32 online.
0:18:57 > 0:19:0232. 35 now. At £32 on the screen.
0:19:02 > 0:19:03It's going, all done.
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Selling for £2 over the top of the estimate.
0:19:07 > 0:19:11It feels like we've hit our stride, but I'll be interested to see
0:19:11 > 0:19:15how our next item fares because it's one of our more unusual lots.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19The military belt is coming up now, Jack.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Just remind who this belonged to.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25It was my great uncle's and he served in the First World War.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29And it's decorated with all sorts of sort of army and RAF badges.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Did you never try and kid the daughters that they were yours?
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Sometimes. I'd do anything for a laugh!
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- 35. 38.- Going up.- At 38. - Lots of bidders.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40At 50. 55. £60. At £55 here.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Looking for £60.
0:19:42 > 0:19:47£60. 65. £70? At 65.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Where's 70 now for this little lot?
0:19:49 > 0:19:51All done at £65, make no mistake.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53£65.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55- Jack!- Oh, wow!
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- That's what you call a belter of a result!- Yeah.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02How about that? Twice the lower estimate.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Let's hope that the upward trend continues with our next lot,
0:20:05 > 0:20:07the trio of carriage clocks
0:20:07 > 0:20:11valued at £140 to £180.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13220. 250. 280.
0:20:13 > 0:20:19- Oh, wow!- 280. 300. And 20. 320. 350.
0:20:19 > 0:20:25380. 400, sir. 400. And 20. 450.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28No, at 420 away in the corner.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32At £420. 450, new man. 480. 500.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34- 500!- And 50. At £500.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36Have another 50, your dad would.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38At £500.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39At 550 now. All done at £500.
0:20:39 > 0:20:44550. 550.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47600. At £550, are you all done?
0:20:47 > 0:20:52- At 550.- Wow!- They paid for the name!
0:20:52 > 0:20:55An astonishing result!
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Three times Jonty's top estimate!
0:20:57 > 0:21:03If that doesn't make up for our earlier disappointments, then I don't know what will.
0:21:04 > 0:21:10So far you've made £1,145.
0:21:10 > 0:21:14- Thank you very much.- Oh, good!
0:21:14 > 0:21:18- Is that like scoring a hat trick? - Lovely.
0:21:18 > 0:21:23If you've been inspired by Jack's progress and you're thinking of heading to auction.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25then do remember that fees like commission
0:21:25 > 0:21:29may be added to your bill, so please do check the details with your local auction house
0:21:29 > 0:21:32first, to avoid any unwelcome surprises.
0:21:32 > 0:21:36Our next lot is the model trains and track
0:21:36 > 0:21:40which Jonty valued at £80 to £120.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42At 95. Where's 100 for this little lot?
0:21:42 > 0:21:44- Online, 100.- At 120 if you want.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46120. 130, now?
0:21:46 > 0:21:49At 120 back of the room.
0:21:49 > 0:21:50At £120. And 130 this time.
0:21:50 > 0:21:55- All done. 130. 140.- Still going up! - 140. 150 now?
0:21:55 > 0:21:57At £140. We're looking for 150 this time.
0:21:57 > 0:22:02- All done at 140.- Very good.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03- Yeah.- That's lovely.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06That was full steam ahead on that, wasn't it?
0:22:06 > 0:22:10Well done. That is such a great start to the second half.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13We know that Jack's already exceeded his target,
0:22:13 > 0:22:17but each sale will be adding more money to his great causes.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19So, how will this next lot do?
0:22:19 > 0:22:23It's the set of Victorian Encyclopaedia Britannicas with their original bookshelf.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25It'll do you good. 150.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27160. At 150 up here.
0:22:27 > 0:22:31At £150. All done at 150 this time.
0:22:31 > 0:22:36Well, we had 40 to 60 on it so we've made more than double that, Jonty.
0:22:36 > 0:22:37I'm really pleased about that.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39I think Jack is, too.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42His lots are certainly popular here at the moment.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Next we've got the quartet of landscapes by the artist B Ward.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Did you like them, girls?
0:22:47 > 0:22:50I thought they were a bit like painting by numbers, personally.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54But if they do well today, I might like them more.
0:22:54 > 0:22:55Go on, I'll take 20.
0:22:55 > 0:22:5820, any of you?
0:22:58 > 0:23:02£20, come on. What can you buy for £20?
0:23:02 > 0:23:03- Our luck's running out, Jack.- Yes.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06Any of you? ten I'm bid. ten and 12 if you like.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08At £10 bid. And 12 for these.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12At £12 bid. And £12 anybody else then, now? All quite sure? And a maiden bid of a tenner.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14That was a bit disappointing,
0:23:14 > 0:23:19but luckily our next set of prints prove more popular...
0:23:19 > 0:23:21At £25. And 28 now.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24At 25. And 28 be quick.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25All done at 25.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28..making bang in the middle of Jonty's estimate.
0:23:28 > 0:23:35To complete our day we have three lots in quick succession consisting of our gold and silver items.
0:23:35 > 0:23:41Now the auction house has decided to divide up our pocket watches into two separate lots, so we've got one
0:23:41 > 0:23:47for the silver watches, a second for the gold watches, plus our gold sovereign in case,
0:23:47 > 0:23:54and to finish off we have that magnificent nine carat gold chain now as a standalone piece.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57So, what's going to happen this time again is that it's going to be fast and furious,
0:23:57 > 0:24:00but hopefully what we're going to get is, what,
0:24:00 > 0:24:03something in the region of £350 in total for them?
0:24:03 > 0:24:06- We should do, we should do. - Nice little package is this.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- 100. 110.- Sounds good.
0:24:08 > 0:24:14- 120. 130. At 130. 140. 150. - Online! 150.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17170 now. At £160 on the side.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20We're looking for 170, quickly. All done at 160.
0:24:20 > 0:24:24£160, wow!
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Here we go, here comes the next one.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29130 with me. 130. 140 now.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31160 at the back of the room. 170.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33180 on the screen. 190.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37200 again. At £190. We're looking for 200 quickly.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40All done at 190. 200. 220.
0:24:40 > 0:24:46- It's heart in the mouth stuff, isn't it?- It certainly is!
0:24:46 > 0:24:50250 it'll have to be. All done at £220.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Terrific!
0:24:53 > 0:24:57- The Albert chain now coming up. - And I'll start this straightaway at £100.- He's in at 100.
0:24:57 > 0:25:03110. 120? 120. 130. 140. And 50.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05It's like being on a seesaw, isn't it?
0:25:05 > 0:25:11- 250? 250. 280. 300. - I'll need security to take me home!
0:25:11 > 0:25:14350? 350. 380 now.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18At £350 now. All done at 350.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22That made you £730!
0:25:22 > 0:25:23Goodness me!
0:25:23 > 0:25:25What a terrific way to finish off!
0:25:25 > 0:25:29I think we're all very keen to know what the final figure is.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34You wanted to raise £800 in total.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36You've made £2,200, Jack!
0:25:36 > 0:25:42- Well done! You'll definitely get Supporter Of The Year this year! - Lovely.- You always do!
0:25:42 > 0:25:46I think you've done so well that you can definitely sign Wayne Rooney
0:25:46 > 0:25:48and possibly build a new stadium, as well.
0:25:52 > 0:25:57Three weeks after that terrific day Ruth is accompanying Jack to the
0:25:57 > 0:26:00home ground of his beloved Colburn Town Football Club.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03Jack is delighted to be handing over three separate cheques
0:26:03 > 0:26:08to huge three hugely grateful beneficiaries, his local church... Right, Ken and Doreen,
0:26:08 > 0:26:12I'm very pleased to be able to present you with this cheque.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15- The village drama group... - There you are, all the best.
0:26:15 > 0:26:20And, of course, Jack's team, Colburn Town Football Club.
0:26:20 > 0:26:25I've always been told by my mother that it's better to give than to receive.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31HE CHEERS
