0:00:14 > 0:00:17Hello and welcome to For What It's Worth,

0:00:17 > 0:00:20where a cash prize waits for the cleverest quizzers

0:00:20 > 0:00:22and the savviest antique shoppers.

0:00:22 > 0:00:25We have three pairs of contestants who are ready to play,

0:00:25 > 0:00:26and in each team is a quizzer,

0:00:26 > 0:00:29responsible for answering general knowledge questions,

0:00:29 > 0:00:31so that their partner, the picker,

0:00:31 > 0:00:35can choose an antique item to add to their collection.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Here are today's lots for your consideration.

0:00:38 > 0:00:4116 different antiques and collectables.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44We have Roman coins,

0:00:44 > 0:00:47a table, some tiles,

0:00:47 > 0:00:49candlesticks and clock,

0:00:49 > 0:00:52tobacco jars, fob,

0:00:52 > 0:00:56pigeon, jewellery, stamps,

0:00:56 > 0:00:58a vesta case,

0:00:58 > 0:01:01paperweight, painting,

0:01:01 > 0:01:02stockings,

0:01:02 > 0:01:05a bust, firing glass

0:01:05 > 0:01:08and...a toy.

0:01:08 > 0:01:11All very different, with very different values.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13At the end of the show, the winning pair will walk away

0:01:13 > 0:01:17with the cash equivalent of one of these items.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20The aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection

0:01:20 > 0:01:24and first up, we have Audrey and Avril, sisters from Durham.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26Avril, you are the team's quizzer. Yes.

0:01:26 > 0:01:30Do you reckon you and your sister will make a winning team today?

0:01:30 > 0:01:31Oh, definitely.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34We're really clued in with each other, we bounce off each other.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Are you good at the general knowledge questions?

0:01:37 > 0:01:39No. LAUGHTER

0:01:39 > 0:01:41There's been a mistake already!

0:01:41 > 0:01:44Now, Audrey, you are the antiques expert on the team.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46Do you think you've got a good eye for a bargain?

0:01:46 > 0:01:50Yes, I would like to think so. I've made one or two decent buys.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Tell us. I bought a Masonic ball,

0:01:53 > 0:01:56which I paid five or ten pound for, can't remember.

0:01:56 > 0:01:57And I sold that.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00What did you sell it for? I think ?80.

0:02:00 > 0:02:01Well done. Yes.

0:02:01 > 0:02:04That's very good, that's a huge percentage, isn't it, mark-up.

0:02:04 > 0:02:09Next we have Jan and Carl, who are a married couple from Wiltshire.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12Now, Carl, you are the questions person today on the team.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16When did you and Jan meet and how would you describe your relationship?

0:02:16 > 0:02:18We met at school.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21Jan was the little sister of my best friend,

0:02:21 > 0:02:24who ceased to be my best friend when I went out with her. Oh.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26And became my best friend again when we got married.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Phew. So, er, relationship,

0:02:28 > 0:02:32a marriage of opposites, yin and yang,

0:02:32 > 0:02:33but we fit together very well,

0:02:33 > 0:02:36we play to each others' strengths and weaknesses.

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Jan, you are the antiques picker for your team.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41What do you like to seek out in antique shops and fairs?

0:02:41 > 0:02:43I'm very drawn to things that are useful.

0:02:43 > 0:02:45I like, if I'm going to buy something,

0:02:45 > 0:02:46I can take it home and use it.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49If I can't use it, I like it to be very beautiful

0:02:49 > 0:02:51so I can put it on a shelf and admire it and look at it.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55Yes, well, I think that's a good criteria, don't you? Perfect. Yes.

0:02:55 > 0:03:00And finally, we have Russell and Mark from Essex, who are work colleagues.

0:03:00 > 0:03:01Hello and welcome, gentlemen.

0:03:01 > 0:03:05Russell, you will be trying to pick those lots today,

0:03:05 > 0:03:06the top lots, I hope.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09When did your passion for collectables and antiques begin?

0:03:09 > 0:03:13Probably from the first Star Wars film in 1977.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15I got bought for me loads and loads of figures

0:03:15 > 0:03:17and I've collected them ever since.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Every now and again I set them all up and just look at them

0:03:20 > 0:03:22and put them all away again.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26Tell me about your favourite Star Wars item, or person, character.

0:03:26 > 0:03:28The favourite Star Wars item is the Slave I,

0:03:28 > 0:03:29which is Boba Fett's ship,

0:03:29 > 0:03:33and it also comes with it, the cryogenics box

0:03:33 > 0:03:35that Han Solo was frozen in.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39So, yes, that's pride of place on top of the wardrobe.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41SHE LAUGHS Aw!

0:03:41 > 0:03:44Mark, you are the quizzer for the team.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Tell us what makes your friendship with Russell tick.

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Do you trust his judgment? I do.

0:03:48 > 0:03:53And...yes, we share common love of music,

0:03:53 > 0:03:58quite eclectic, and we share a similar sense of humour.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01We make each other laugh and bounce each other, off each other.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03We'll see how it goes today, eh?

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Now, earlier our teams inspected the lots,

0:04:06 > 0:04:09but could they separate the valuable from the valueless?

0:04:10 > 0:04:14Ooh, which way round do you want to go?

0:04:14 > 0:04:15Wow.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Where shall we start?

0:04:20 > 0:04:21I'm not keen on that.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24What? A Victorian gentleman, would you say?

0:04:24 > 0:04:26That's a shotgun, isn't it, hunting?

0:04:26 > 0:04:29It's been repaired. Depends how old it is. 1920.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32I just don't think it's worth money.

0:04:33 > 0:04:35I like this.

0:04:35 > 0:04:39I think this is only maybe early '50s, with the style.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41I like it. It is good.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Plaster. Plaster, yes.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Candlesticks and clock.

0:04:47 > 0:04:48Arts and Crafts, maybe.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50It's poor quality, isn't it?

0:04:50 > 0:04:52Quite like that.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54I think the jewellery...

0:04:54 > 0:04:57No, I don't, because I think it's only worth what it weighs.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59I would say this was '50s, what do you reckon?

0:04:59 > 0:05:03Norwegian steel. Norwegian steel? Silver.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05FB.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07FB. Frank Butcher? THEY LAUGH

0:05:07 > 0:05:11Doesn't look anything like him, does it? Ugly, ugly things.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13What about the Roman coin?

0:05:13 > 0:05:16They're not going to be worthless, but they're not worth an awful lot.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19They're still digging them up in fields by the millions now,

0:05:19 > 0:05:22aren't they? Again, I don't know anything.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25If it's the right one, this will be the expensive...

0:05:25 > 0:05:29There was a mark inside, I can't remember what it was.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32I'd have it. Would you? Yeah, I would. I'll get you one.

0:05:34 > 0:05:35SHE LAUGHS

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Tin car. This is fantastic condition.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41But you normally have to have the box. That's pretty worthless.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47What's that? Commemorating stamps at some castle, or castles.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50I think they're a red herring.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53These are flapper stockings, aren't they?

0:05:53 > 0:05:55For robbing antique banks.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57It's all together in a funny sort of way.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01It looks very like Art Deco to me.

0:06:01 > 0:06:041930. No, 1980.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06No. Put the glasses on again!

0:06:08 > 0:06:10Moroccan. WD Morgan.

0:06:10 > 0:06:11It's not Moroccan.

0:06:11 > 0:06:15That says William D Morgan, so they're going to be worth a bit.

0:06:17 > 0:06:18That's from the railways.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Lovely, isn't it?

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Liverpool to Doncaster.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24My old stamping ground, Doncaster.

0:06:25 > 0:06:28It's like a man's version of a charm bracelet, I think.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30There's a mason's fob, Audrey.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32It'll be 80 to 100 quid.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36What's this? Firing glass, it says.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38That's what was a ceremonial thing, is it?

0:06:38 > 0:06:41Right, top three, Avril, the bust...

0:06:41 > 0:06:43BOTH: The Toby jugs.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45And the paperweight. Right.

0:06:45 > 0:06:46BOTH: The pigeon, the bust.

0:06:46 > 0:06:49And the... OK. The rolled up... We'll go with that.

0:06:49 > 0:06:53The glass, the fob and the horrible tobacco jars.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55That was tough. That's easy.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Joining me is our resident antiques expert, Charlie Ross.

0:07:01 > 0:07:03Charlie, what do you make of these lots?

0:07:03 > 0:07:05Actually, there's a lot of things there

0:07:05 > 0:07:09I would like to be able to put under my gavel when I'm auctioning.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11And they range from worthless -

0:07:11 > 0:07:14what we in the antiques trade say is worthless

0:07:14 > 0:07:16is something less than a tenner -

0:07:16 > 0:07:19right up to our top lot

0:07:19 > 0:07:23of ?2,500!

0:07:23 > 0:07:25How has that valuation been done, then?

0:07:25 > 0:07:29All the values for each lot have been agreed by...

0:07:29 > 0:07:31myself. THEY LAUGH

0:07:31 > 0:07:36And... An independent valuer based on hammer price.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38That means the price that a bidder would pay

0:07:38 > 0:07:41when the auctioneer's gavel comes down,

0:07:41 > 0:07:43not including any costs.

0:07:43 > 0:07:46OK, well, as well as these little treasures,

0:07:46 > 0:07:49we have our mystery lot, hidden under the shroud of mystery,

0:07:49 > 0:07:55poised to be uncovered at the end of the show to tempt our winners.

0:07:55 > 0:07:58Charlie, ooh, it's a little one today.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00It's a little one today.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03But might it be hugely valuable later?

0:08:03 > 0:08:06Is that all you're going to tempt us with?

0:08:06 > 0:08:08I'm saying nothing more, Fern, about that.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11OK. It could be priceless, or it could be worth tuppence.

0:08:11 > 0:08:16We'll be unveiling it later, but for now it is time for Round One.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21I'm going to ask ten general knowledge questions.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24So, quizzers, if you buzz in with a correct answer,

0:08:24 > 0:08:27your picker gets to add a lot to your collection.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29But beware, buzz in incorrectly

0:08:29 > 0:08:32and you'll be frozen out of the next question.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35Quizzers, get the question right

0:08:35 > 0:08:39and your picker will have the chance to bag the top lots first.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43Fingers on buzzers. Question number one.

0:08:43 > 0:08:48The adrenal glands are situated above which organs of the human body?

0:08:51 > 0:08:54Carl? Kidneys. It is the kidneys, correct.

0:08:54 > 0:08:59Jan, you are first off the mark. Delightful! What would you like?

0:08:59 > 0:09:02I think I would quite like to go for...

0:09:02 > 0:09:04the fob.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05The fob.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09OK, it is yours, that starts your collection.

0:09:09 > 0:09:10Question two.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14In the sport of fencing, what is the name of the manoeuvre intended

0:09:14 > 0:09:17to deflect or block an incoming...

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Mark? Parry?

0:09:19 > 0:09:23It is a parry, to deflect an incoming attack.

0:09:23 > 0:09:26Russell, your chance to choose. Looking delighted.

0:09:26 > 0:09:27I was delighted, yeah.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29I think I'll go for the pigeon.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31The pigeon, it's yours.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Question number three.

0:09:33 > 0:09:38The fictional seven kingdoms of Westeros

0:09:38 > 0:09:42Yes, Carl? Game Of Thrones. It is Game Of Thrones. Correct.

0:09:42 > 0:09:47Jan, your second pick.

0:09:47 > 0:09:52I don't know what it is, but I love glass and I think it's lovely.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Question four.

0:09:54 > 0:09:59In November 1992, a fire broke out in which British...

0:09:59 > 0:10:00Mark?

0:10:00 > 0:10:16Windsor Castle? It is Windsor Castle. I was going to say,

0:10:16 > 0:10:16Why's your head in your hands there, Mark?

0:10:23 > 0:10:24Well, the jewellery is in your collection.

0:10:24 > 0:10:28Right, come on, Avril and Audrey. I know! You're going to be fine.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30Here we go, question five.

0:10:30 > 0:10:33Quasimodo was crowned as

0:10:33 > 0:10:36the Pope of Fools

0:10:36 > 0:10:39in which 1831 novel?

0:10:39 > 0:10:43Yes, Avril. The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. You are correct. Well done.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Right, Audrey. What would you like?

0:10:46 > 0:10:49I really like the tobacco jars, so I'm going to go for them.

0:10:49 > 0:10:53Lovely, tobacco jars are yours. You're off the mark.

0:10:53 > 0:10:54Question six.

0:10:54 > 0:10:57Stay With Me and Money On My Mind...

0:10:57 > 0:10:59Yes, Avril?

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Is...erm...

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Sam Smith.

0:11:03 > 0:11:07Correct. I was going to say, "Stay With Me and Money On My Mind

0:11:07 > 0:11:10"were UK number ones for which singer?" It is Sam Smith.

0:11:10 > 0:11:14Panicking there! There's no stopping her now. Right, Audrey, your pick.

0:11:14 > 0:11:18Now I'm lost, cos the other one has gone I fancied. Erm...

0:11:18 > 0:11:22I think I'll go for the candlesticks.

0:11:22 > 0:11:25They're in your collection.

0:11:25 > 0:11:26Question seven.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29What is the largest of the English Isles?

0:11:29 > 0:11:31Yes, Mark?

0:11:31 > 0:11:32Ireland.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35No, I'm afraid not. You're frozen out.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38The largest of the English Isles is the Isle of Wight.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41You cannot answer this next question.

0:11:41 > 0:11:42Question eight.

0:11:42 > 0:11:46Of what are Bonhams and Christie's notable examples?

0:11:46 > 0:11:49Yes, Avril? Auction houses. Absolutely correct.

0:11:49 > 0:11:51Audrey, go for it.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53Um...

0:11:53 > 0:11:56I think I'll have the paperweight, please. Excellent.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58The paperweight is yours.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00Mark and Russell, you're now back in the game.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Question nine. Decommissioned in 2003,

0:12:04 > 0:12:07what was the world's only supersonic passenger jet?

0:12:07 > 0:12:08Mark? Concorde.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Correct. Russell, go for it.

0:12:11 > 0:12:13I'd better stick to the plan again.

0:12:13 > 0:12:16LAUGHTER We'll go for the bust.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18Go for bust. Go for bust, yes.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20That's in your collection.

0:12:20 > 0:12:22Final question, question ten.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Who played Edward Cullen

0:12:24 > 0:12:27in the Twilight film series?

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Yes, Carl? Robert Pattinson? It is Robert Pattinson. Correct.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Jan, this is your chance to make it all even,

0:12:34 > 0:12:37you would all have three each. Oh, yes. Go for it.

0:12:37 > 0:12:39OK, I think I'm going to go for the tiles this time,

0:12:39 > 0:12:41cos I really do like them.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43Good woman. Can't win them all.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46Here's how the collections stand at the end of that round.

0:12:46 > 0:12:50Audrey and Avril, you have the tobacco jars, the candlesticks,

0:12:50 > 0:12:51and the paperweight.

0:12:51 > 0:12:54Jan and Carl, you have managed to collect the fob,

0:12:54 > 0:12:57the firing glass, and the tiles.

0:12:57 > 0:13:01Last, but by no means least, Russell and Mark, you have the pigeon,

0:13:01 > 0:13:03the jewellery and the bust.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06Well, our teams have started to build their collections,

0:13:06 > 0:13:08but before they have the chance to add to them,

0:13:08 > 0:13:12Charlie is going to give each pair a fact about a lot of their choice.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16These snippets of information should give you vital clues

0:13:16 > 0:13:19about what it's worth. So, choose wisely.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22Audrey, what would you like to find out about?

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Erm, I think the tobacco jars, please.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27In your own collection. Right, Charlie.

0:13:27 > 0:13:32This is a pair of Victorian, English, salt-glazed tobacco jars

0:13:32 > 0:13:34in the form of Jack Tar.

0:13:34 > 0:13:36A common English term,

0:13:36 > 0:13:40originally used to refer to seamen of the merchant or the Royal Navy.

0:13:40 > 0:13:41AVRIL: Mmm.

0:13:41 > 0:13:45CHARLIE: Figures like this were very popular.

0:13:45 > 0:13:46But has it increased their worth?

0:13:48 > 0:13:51Carl and Jan, what would you like to know about?

0:13:51 > 0:13:54I'd quite like to know a bit more about the painting, please.

0:13:54 > 0:13:58Right, this is a 19th-century oval portrait of a huntsman,

0:13:58 > 0:14:02oil on board, in a carved gilt wood frame.

0:14:03 > 0:14:07It is a gorgeous example of a Victorian portrait,

0:14:07 > 0:14:11painted in the style of the great continental artists of the time.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14There's no way of knowing who this person is,

0:14:14 > 0:14:18or any signature to identify the artist, so what does quality

0:14:18 > 0:14:24without provenance do to its value at auction?

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Mark and Russell. Russell, what have you got your eye on

0:14:27 > 0:14:29that you'd like to know more about?

0:14:29 > 0:14:32I would like to know a little bit more about the vesta case.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36Vesta cases, or vesta boxes were small, portable boxes

0:14:36 > 0:14:38made in a great variety of forms

0:14:38 > 0:14:42with snapshot covers to contain vestas -

0:14:42 > 0:14:45short matches - and keep them dry.

0:14:45 > 0:14:50Named after the goddess Vesta, the Roman deity of fire,

0:14:50 > 0:14:53they came into use around the 1830s

0:14:53 > 0:14:58and were produced extensively between 1890 and 1920.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02This one dates to London, 1890,

0:15:02 > 0:15:08and was made by Samson Mordan, in a way that is now very collectable.

0:15:09 > 0:15:10OK, now that

0:15:10 > 0:15:13you are a bit more knowledgeable about some of today's lots,

0:15:13 > 0:15:16let's give you the chance to add more of them to your collections.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19Bear in mind that at the end of this round,

0:15:19 > 0:15:23the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28So, three more lots are now available to each pair,

0:15:28 > 0:15:31and this time the lots come with their own question categories.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33And here they are.

0:15:34 > 0:15:38So if you went for the vesta case, for instance,

0:15:38 > 0:15:42I would offer you a question between fruit and veg or Meryl Streep.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45It's a bit like Battleships. Audrey and Avril, you are up first.

0:15:45 > 0:15:48So, Audrey, what's your lot?

0:15:48 > 0:15:51I'm going to go for the painting, please. The painting.

0:15:51 > 0:15:56Right, Avril, how are you on fruit and veg or soap operas?

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Um, I'll go for soap operas. Soap operas it is.

0:15:59 > 0:16:04Tamwar and Shabnam are members of which EastEnders family? Um...

0:16:05 > 0:16:08Kapoor. Ah!

0:16:08 > 0:16:12It is the Masoods. Of course. Of course it is the Masoods. Oh!

0:16:12 > 0:16:18The painting stays on the grid. Carl and Jan. Jan, what would you like?

0:16:18 > 0:16:21I'm going to go for the vesta case. What question would you like, Carl?

0:16:21 > 0:16:25Fruit and veg or Meryl Streep? I think I'll go with fruit and veg.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27OK. Fruit and veg.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29What is the Indian word for cauliflower?

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Saag aloo? I think that is spinach. This is gobhi.

0:16:34 > 0:16:36So, incorrect answer, I'm afraid.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39Well, the vesta case stays where it is.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Mark and Russell, can you at least get one of them? We'll try.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45Russell, what would you like?

0:16:45 > 0:16:48After Charlie's great advice, I'll go for the vesta case.

0:16:48 > 0:16:53The vesta case. Right, Mark. Fruit and veg, Meryl Streep?

0:16:53 > 0:16:57Ah. Fruit and veg, please. Fruit and veg.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Which poison can be extracted from apple pips?

0:17:04 > 0:17:06Arsenic. Incorrect.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08It is not arsenic, it is the other one, cyanide.

0:17:08 > 0:17:13But there is only a very, very, very small trace of cyanide in any pips,

0:17:13 > 0:17:14so no-one can go around, really,

0:17:14 > 0:17:17doing anything too terrible with that one.

0:17:17 > 0:17:20Here's the second pass. Are you ready, Audrey and Avril?

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Audrey, what would you like to have a go at?

0:17:22 > 0:17:25I think we are going to go with the painting again, please.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28The painting again. Fruit and veg or soap operas?

0:17:28 > 0:17:31Avril, what would you like? We'll try soap operas again.

0:17:31 > 0:17:32Soap operas again.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36Which Australian soap opera character has been played by veteran

0:17:36 > 0:17:40actor Ray Meagher since 1988?

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Ray Meagher? Mm-hm.

0:17:45 > 0:17:50I can't think of any soap opera characters in Australia.

0:17:50 > 0:17:54The answer is Alf Stewart from Home And Away. Yeah.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56Right, Carl and Jan.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59Jan, what are you going for? I'm going for the vesta case once again.

0:17:59 > 0:18:04Vesta case. Fruit and veg or Meryl Streep? Meryl, you've got your way.

0:18:04 > 0:18:07OK. Here is your Meryl Streep question.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10For which film did Meryl Streep receive her first

0:18:10 > 0:18:13Academy Award nomination?

0:18:13 > 0:18:17Kramer vs. Kramer? No. The Deer Hunter.

0:18:17 > 0:18:22A long time ago now. Sorry, dear. Russell. You've got carte blanche.

0:18:22 > 0:18:23Choose what you want.

0:18:23 > 0:18:26I want the vesta case, but nobody seems to know anything about

0:18:26 > 0:18:28fruit and veg or Meryl Streep. LAUGHTER

0:18:30 > 0:18:33But I will go for the vesta case again. OK.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35Mark... Oh, you're cruel.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38..Meryl Streep or fruit and veg? Oh!

0:18:40 > 0:18:42Fruit and veg, please. Fruit and veg.

0:18:42 > 0:18:46Which fruit is used as the base for guacamole?

0:18:46 > 0:18:50Avocado. It is avocado. Yes!

0:18:50 > 0:18:54Oh, well done. The vesta case held out for you, I think.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57And it is now coming to your collection.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01So, there's one last lot available to each team,

0:19:01 > 0:19:04and this time you can either go for what's left on the grid

0:19:04 > 0:19:09or you can try to steal an antique that is in a rival team's collection.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12But, pickers, be warned.

0:19:12 > 0:19:14If you choose to steal from another team,

0:19:14 > 0:19:19their quizzer will get to decide your quizzer's category.

0:19:19 > 0:19:23Audrey, do you want to target a lot from the grid,

0:19:23 > 0:19:26or have you got your eye on something in another collection?

0:19:26 > 0:19:29No, I'm going to target a lot from the grid. Go for it.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32I'm going to go for the stamps. The stamps.

0:19:32 > 0:19:37Fruit and veg or outer space? Well...

0:19:37 > 0:19:39I'm going to go for fruit and veg.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41THEY LAUGH

0:19:41 > 0:19:46In the USA, what is the official state fruit of Georgia?

0:19:49 > 0:19:53Melon. Incorrect. It is the peach.

0:19:53 > 0:19:56Oh, dear, the stamps stay on the grid.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Jan, what would you like?

0:19:59 > 0:20:00I'm going to be a little devil,

0:20:00 > 0:20:03and I'm going to try and steal something from someone else.

0:20:03 > 0:20:08With Carl's help, of course. And he liked the bust.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12A-ha. And I like it, as well. The bust is with Mark and Russell.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14So I think we are going to go for that.

0:20:14 > 0:20:18Which means that Mark, you pick a category -

0:20:18 > 0:20:21any one of these now for Carl.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25I'm going to go with soap operas.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27Soap operas. Carl, brace yourself.

0:20:27 > 0:20:31Which British soap was set in a Midlands motel?

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Crossroads. Correct.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36The bust is yours. Got it at last?

0:20:36 > 0:20:38THEY LAUGH

0:20:38 > 0:20:42Benny. Benny, I'm channelling Benny. FERN LAUGHS

0:20:42 > 0:20:43Very good.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45Mark and Russell, what are you going to do?

0:20:45 > 0:20:48Take something from the grid or steal something from your opponent?

0:20:48 > 0:20:50I'm going to take something from the grid,

0:20:50 > 0:20:53because I thought that was quite cruel.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55LAUGHTER

0:20:55 > 0:20:57That won't win you the game. It was terrible. It was cruel.

0:20:57 > 0:21:01You can play to take it back. No, I think I'll go for the stamps.

0:21:01 > 0:21:06Going for the stamps. Fruit and veg or outer space, Mark?

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Oh, I've had enough of fruit and veg.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10I'm going to go outer space, please.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Outer space.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16Which planet in our solar system is closest to the sun?

0:21:16 > 0:21:17Mercury.

0:21:17 > 0:21:19It is, correct!

0:21:19 > 0:21:23The stamps are yours and are on their way to your collection.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27OK, that's it for Round Two, and for one team it is the end of the road.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30We've calculated the combined value of your items.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34And the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated,

0:21:34 > 0:21:37taking your lots out of the game, too.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41Charlie has been keeping tabs, so, Charlie, who is leaving us first?

0:21:41 > 0:21:44I don't want anybody to go... Never. ..Fern.

0:21:44 > 0:21:48But I can reveal that the pair leaving us first is...

0:21:54 > 0:21:57..Jan and Carl. Oh, dear.

0:21:57 > 0:21:59Oh, I'm so sorry.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02You've played brilliantly, and thank you for being here.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06But before you leave, we need to find out about the lots

0:22:06 > 0:22:09that are leaving the game with you. How much is each lot worth?

0:22:09 > 0:22:11Where are we starting, Charlie?

0:22:11 > 0:22:14We are going to start with the firing glass.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17Interesting how it got its name, isn't it, firing glass?

0:22:17 > 0:22:21You'd toast it and then you banged it down on the table,

0:22:21 > 0:22:22and if you all did it together,

0:22:22 > 0:22:26it sounded like a volley of muskets going. Hence the "firing glass".

0:22:26 > 0:22:29They are sometimes called shot glasses.

0:22:29 > 0:22:31But it has got a crack, someone has done...

0:22:31 > 0:22:33HE BANGS ON DESK .."cheers" a bit too hard,

0:22:33 > 0:22:37and there is a crack running through it, which has affected the value.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40It's a nice object, it is late 19th century.

0:22:40 > 0:22:42And we've put a value of ?100 on it.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46Oh. Not bad. That's more than I thought.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48What about the fob?

0:22:48 > 0:22:51It's 19th-century, it is gold and white gold.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54And white gold is gold with a bit of nickel in it,

0:22:54 > 0:22:57or a bit of platinum in it. And it gives it a different texture.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59And because it is gold content, it is

0:22:59 > 0:23:04limited in terms of value as to who would buy it, being Masonic.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07But ?200. Wow.

0:23:07 > 0:23:11What's next? Well, we've got some tiles.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14Carl, I think you knew the name, didn't you? William De Morgan.

0:23:14 > 0:23:15William De Morgan.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18And you might think that unless you've got a whole packet to

0:23:18 > 0:23:22do your bathroom, or your kitchen, they wouldn't be worth a great deal.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25But because they are William De Morgan, they are indeed.

0:23:25 > 0:23:30We only have two tiles, but we have a value of ?400 on these tiles.

0:23:30 > 0:23:31Good heavens.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34They've gone. And we've got one more item, haven't we?

0:23:34 > 0:23:36Oh, I love this little girl.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Comments about the hairstyle being perhaps early '50s.

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Well, this is quite possibly '50s.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45It's by Benno Schotz,

0:23:45 > 0:23:47an amazing sculptor.

0:23:47 > 0:23:51He was influenced by Rodin, influenced by Epstein.

0:23:51 > 0:23:56A lot of his works are in museums. This is top stuff.

0:23:56 > 0:23:59You did very well to get this lot and to steal it back.

0:23:59 > 0:24:05Sadly, it didn't give you quite enough, but it's still worth ?1,000.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08So, well done. Not too shabby. Not too shabby.

0:24:08 > 0:24:14Which brought your collection up to ?1,700, which is laudable.

0:24:14 > 0:24:15Mmm. Jan and Carl, it is time to

0:24:15 > 0:24:19bring the hammer down on your collection, I'm afraid.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22But thank you for playing For What It's Worth. Thank you. Thank you.

0:24:24 > 0:24:27I don't know what happened, really. I think it was the fatal flaw.

0:24:27 > 0:24:29We chose the things we like the look of,

0:24:29 > 0:24:32rather than the things of great value.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35We all swear at home we won't do that, but we did.

0:24:39 > 0:24:44The unclaimed lots in the grid are now also leaving the game.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47So let's quickly find out from Charlie what they were worth,

0:24:47 > 0:24:52and if the top lot is there or still in the game somewhere.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Stockings.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58Russell, we liked your comment... "for robbing antique banks."

0:24:58 > 0:25:00LAUGHTER

0:25:01 > 0:25:06They were made by George Brettle. What a stocking-maker was he.

0:25:06 > 0:25:10He made stockings for Queen Victoria. Oh! Oh!

0:25:10 > 0:25:13Were these worn by Queen Victoria?

0:25:13 > 0:25:15No.

0:25:15 > 0:25:19And therefore we are missing that word, aren't we? Provenance.

0:25:19 > 0:25:24And without provenance, these stockings are worth ?25.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Ah. Now the toy.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29Avril. Yes. I think you said it would be worthless

0:25:29 > 0:25:32without the box. Yes. Good point!

0:25:32 > 0:25:37Not worthless... No, but. ..but it's the Louis Marx USA tin plate

0:25:37 > 0:25:39clockwork car.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41This is a model of the car that won Indianapolis,

0:25:41 > 0:25:46probably the most famous American race, in 1948. Wow.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48It works.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52It's in good condition, but you are right. No box.

0:25:52 > 0:25:57But it's still worth ?250.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Never! Blimey. Now, the painting. The painting.

0:26:01 > 0:26:05Audrey, not keen on the painting, were we? I wasn't a lover of it.

0:26:05 > 0:26:09Mark, well painted, the Victorian gent.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12But there again, provenance.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15Who painted it? Haven't got a clue.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18Who's it of? Haven't got a clue.

0:26:18 > 0:26:22So as a nice, attractive decorator's painting,

0:26:22 > 0:26:26?300. Really? Next.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30I love this. You might just call it a tripod table.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Audrey, you thought Victorian, Georgian.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33No, it is earlier than that.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Look at those slender lines. I think, Russell,

0:26:36 > 0:26:40you thought '20s or '30s. Yes, but 1820s,

0:26:40 > 0:26:43not 1920s. Actually a little bit earlier.

0:26:43 > 0:26:45I think we can go back to 1800.

0:26:45 > 0:26:49I love this table. ?350. Oh!

0:26:49 > 0:26:52Were you all thinking, "Uh-oh"? THEY LAUGH

0:26:52 > 0:26:54Very clever. OK.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57What a beautiful table, but no, thank you. What's next?

0:26:57 > 0:27:02We finish up with a rather interesting collection of coins.

0:27:02 > 0:27:07I don't think any of you knew what these coins were, did you? No.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10No. I think Audrey spotted that thousands were found.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13Well...

0:27:13 > 0:27:16history...Roman...

0:27:16 > 0:27:202,000 years old!

0:27:20 > 0:27:22Come on, team!

0:27:22 > 0:27:26They're worthless! Oh! Yay!

0:27:26 > 0:27:30Yay! That's simply because there are so many of them? Exactly, Fern.

0:27:30 > 0:27:32Well done, teams,

0:27:32 > 0:27:36you did not fall into the trap of picking up the worthless lot.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40Very good. Well, those are some very interesting and valuable lots

0:27:40 > 0:27:42that are leaving the game, but, as you've seen,

0:27:42 > 0:27:45and much to your relief, the bottom lot is now out of the game,

0:27:45 > 0:27:50but thankfully the top lot is still in play.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Oh! Who's got it?

0:27:53 > 0:27:55So just two pairs of contestants left.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Before we go any further, though,

0:27:57 > 0:28:01Charlie is going to give you another fact about a lot of your choice.

0:28:01 > 0:28:06Audrey, what lot do you need to know more about? The pigeon.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Charlie, the pigeon, please.

0:28:08 > 0:28:11This pigeon is an early work by Arnold Machin,

0:28:11 > 0:28:14made in 1937.

0:28:14 > 0:28:20Machin was a British artist, sculptor, coin- and stamp-designer.

0:28:20 > 0:28:24In 1964, he was chosen to create a bust of the Queen

0:28:24 > 0:28:29that was to appear on coins until 1984.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31Animals particularly interested him,

0:28:31 > 0:28:35and he produced quite a few single studies of animals.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38So where does this all leave our pigeon?

0:28:38 > 0:28:42A one-off piece by an influential British sculptor,

0:28:42 > 0:28:45but not created during his peak,

0:28:45 > 0:28:48but as part of his studies.

0:28:48 > 0:28:51What does this mean for the value?

0:28:51 > 0:28:55Hmm. That was a good story, Audrey, wasn't it? Yes, very interesting.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59But has it been helpful? Yes, I think so. Oh. Yes.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02Russell, what would you like to know more about?

0:29:02 > 0:29:04I'd like to know a little bit more about the paperweight,

0:29:04 > 0:29:09please, Charlie. It's a Clichy paperweight.

0:29:09 > 0:29:14Made between 1850 and 1860.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16And Clichy was the third of the principal French

0:29:16 > 0:29:20glassworks in the mid-19th century.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23Very few Clichy weights are signed.

0:29:23 > 0:29:28This one has no signature... and doesn't feature any roses.

0:29:28 > 0:29:32But it is full of millefiori.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34OK, thank you very much, Charlie.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38Russell, has that given you any idea what it's worth? None whatsoever.

0:29:38 > 0:29:40LAUGHTER No.

0:29:40 > 0:29:43Those are all the facts available to you, so now it's

0:29:43 > 0:29:46time for our final round, and at the end of it

0:29:46 > 0:29:47we will have our winners.

0:29:50 > 0:29:51Concentrate on this one.

0:29:51 > 0:29:53I'm going to give the quizzers a category,

0:29:53 > 0:29:57and then they take turns to say answers in that category.

0:29:57 > 0:30:01For example, if I say, "Famous people called Jane," Avril,

0:30:01 > 0:30:03you might say Jane Austen.

0:30:03 > 0:30:07Mark, you might say Jane Fonda, and then Jane Seymour and so one.

0:30:07 > 0:30:08All right.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11If you fail to give an answer, if you repeat an answer,

0:30:11 > 0:30:14or you give a wrong answer, you lose that category.

0:30:14 > 0:30:17And the opponents' picker will be able to steal

0:30:17 > 0:30:20a lot from your collection. Mmm.

0:30:20 > 0:30:21Remember, it's the

0:30:21 > 0:30:26total value of your collections that matter at the end of this round.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29One high-priced lot could be more valuable than your opponents'

0:30:29 > 0:30:32entire collection. There are three categories.

0:30:32 > 0:30:35The pair with the most valuable collection at this point goes

0:30:35 > 0:30:37first, so, Charlie, who is that?

0:30:37 > 0:30:41The team who currently has the most viable collection is...

0:30:45 > 0:30:50..Russell and Mark. Oh. Really?

0:30:50 > 0:30:53OK, Mark, you will be going first. OK.

0:30:53 > 0:30:59The first category is Acts That Have Headlined On The Pyramid Stage

0:30:59 > 0:31:03At Glastonbury Festival Since 2002.

0:31:03 > 0:31:08That is when the term headline act became an official

0:31:08 > 0:31:11feature at the Glastonbury Festival. Here we go.

0:31:11 > 0:31:15Mark, would you please give me your first answer?

0:31:15 > 0:31:17The Rolling Stones.

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Correct. Avril?

0:31:19 > 0:31:22Lady Gaga.

0:31:22 > 0:31:23Incorrect. Oh!

0:31:23 > 0:31:27Of all the people, you'd have thought she would have,

0:31:27 > 0:31:28but she hasn't yet.

0:31:28 > 0:31:34You could have had Beyonce, Dolly Parton, Kanye West,

0:31:34 > 0:31:39The White Stripes or U2, amongst many others. OK.

0:31:39 > 0:31:43Russell, you can steal from Avril and Audrey's collection.

0:31:45 > 0:31:49What would you like? I think I'll take the tobacco jars.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52The tobacco jars. They're yours.

0:31:52 > 0:31:54Avril and Audrey, here's your category.

0:31:54 > 0:31:59English Cities That Have Church Of England Cathedrals.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Here we go, Avril. Please give me an answer.

0:32:02 > 0:32:03Durham.

0:32:03 > 0:32:04Correct. Mark?

0:32:06 > 0:32:07Winchester.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09Correct. Avril?

0:32:09 > 0:32:11York.

0:32:11 > 0:32:12Correct. Mark?

0:32:13 > 0:32:14Chelmsford.

0:32:14 > 0:32:16Correct. Avril?

0:32:16 > 0:32:17Westminster.

0:32:19 > 0:32:21I'm afraid we can't accept Westminster.

0:32:21 > 0:32:25We've obviously all heard of the City of Westminster and there is

0:32:25 > 0:32:29a cathedral there, but I'm afraid it is not Church of England.

0:32:30 > 0:32:34Oh, dear! Never mind. I am sorry.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37Russell, prepare to steal.

0:32:37 > 0:32:41What do you want? I think I will take the candlesticks. The candlesticks?

0:32:41 > 0:32:45They are coming to you. Avril and Audrey, don't worry. Here we go.

0:32:45 > 0:32:46Third question.

0:32:48 > 0:32:50Official James Bond Movies.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54We will only accept films made by Eon Productions

0:32:54 > 0:32:55and will not accept, for instance,

0:32:55 > 0:32:59Never Say Never Again, as this is not an official James Bond film.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Mark, give me an answer.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05From Russia With Love.

0:33:05 > 0:33:06Correct. Avril?

0:33:06 > 0:33:08Goldfinger.

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Correct. Mark?

0:33:10 > 0:33:12Man With The Golden Gun.

0:33:12 > 0:33:13Correct. Avril?

0:33:16 > 0:33:18GoldenEye.

0:33:18 > 0:33:21Correct. Well done. Mark?

0:33:21 > 0:33:22Well done.

0:33:23 > 0:33:24Thunderball.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26Correct. Avril?

0:33:28 > 0:33:29Diamonds Are Forever.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32Correct. Mark?

0:33:32 > 0:33:34You Only Live Twice.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36Correct. Avril?

0:33:38 > 0:33:41Stargate.

0:33:41 > 0:33:44Incorrect. I'm so sorry, Avril.

0:33:44 > 0:33:48You could have had Spectre, Skyfall... Skyfall.

0:33:48 > 0:33:54..On Her Majesty's Secret Service, For Your Eyes Only, etc, etc. Yeah.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56Well done, Mark and Russell.

0:33:56 > 0:34:02I wonder what you might have your eye on over in Avril and Audrey's corner.

0:34:02 > 0:34:04I think I need some paperweights, please.

0:34:04 > 0:34:09The paperweight is coming over to your collection right now.

0:34:09 > 0:34:12Well, teams, it's obviously very clear who are our winners today.

0:34:12 > 0:34:16Congratulations, Russell and Mark.

0:34:16 > 0:34:19Audrey and Avril, we are so sorry to be losing you,

0:34:19 > 0:34:21but, unfortunately, the questions just didn't fall your way

0:34:21 > 0:34:26at the crucial moment, but thank you for playing For What It's Worth.

0:34:26 > 0:34:28Thank you. Thank you.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30To be honest, the candlesticks, I just picked them

0:34:30 > 0:34:33cos they were really ugly. And the clock.

0:34:33 > 0:34:34And I thought, God, they've got to

0:34:34 > 0:34:37be worth something or they wouldn't be here cos they're so ugly!

0:34:42 > 0:34:43Well done, Russell and Mark.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45You built the most valuable collection

0:34:45 > 0:34:47and you are today's winners.

0:34:47 > 0:34:50And now, all that remains is for you to claim your prize.

0:34:50 > 0:34:54All you have to do - simple - is pick a lot from your collection

0:34:54 > 0:34:57and we will give you its value in cash. OK.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59As you will have deduced,

0:34:59 > 0:35:05that top lot is hiding somewhere in your collection, but can you spot it?

0:35:05 > 0:35:09Have a little chat and decide which you'd like to choose.

0:35:09 > 0:35:12Come on, then, Chewbacca! You choose.

0:35:12 > 0:35:13You choose - what do you think it is?

0:35:13 > 0:35:17I'll back you all the way, until you're wrong.

0:35:17 > 0:35:19When we looked around, the pigeon interested us, didn't it?

0:35:19 > 0:35:22I think, as you can tell, it's quality. It is quality.

0:35:22 > 0:35:23I do like it.

0:35:23 > 0:35:27If I had to break it down, I'd say pigeon and the paperweight

0:35:27 > 0:35:30and the Vesta case are the three. The others I would get rid of.

0:35:30 > 0:35:31But you liked the jewellery?

0:35:31 > 0:35:34I did like the jewellery, so I'd put that instead of the paperweight,

0:35:34 > 0:35:37but I think the pigeon is what we've both been saying we went for.

0:35:37 > 0:35:38Are we going to stick with that?

0:35:38 > 0:35:40I think we're going to stick with the pigeon.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43You're going to stick with the pigeon? Catch the pigeon.

0:35:43 > 0:35:44So they have chosen the pigeon.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46Before we tell you what it's worth, Charlie,

0:35:46 > 0:35:51please can you tell us the value of the lots the boys have rejected?

0:35:51 > 0:35:54I love your jewellery. I think it's splendid.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58It is Norwegian, David Andersen. Wonderful, wonderful silversmith.

0:35:58 > 0:35:59Silver and enamel.

0:35:59 > 0:36:05?450 worth. Wowee! The excitement! Good.

0:36:05 > 0:36:09You quite liked those clumpy tobacco jars, didn't you?

0:36:09 > 0:36:11I think if you had one of them,

0:36:11 > 0:36:13they really wouldn't be worth much at all.

0:36:13 > 0:36:17To get a pair of this size in that condition is really quite rare.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19And they're quite fun.

0:36:19 > 0:36:20And they're ?600 worth.

0:36:20 > 0:36:21THEY SIGH WITH RELIEF

0:36:21 > 0:36:24Good. Sigh of relief.

0:36:24 > 0:36:28What's next? Trench art. Oh! Yeah.

0:36:28 > 0:36:31A lot of trench art is simply getting an old shell

0:36:31 > 0:36:34and embossing it crudely.

0:36:34 > 0:36:36This is extremely well done

0:36:36 > 0:36:39and it is a signed piece of trench art, hence the price.

0:36:39 > 0:36:42?700. Mm!

0:36:42 > 0:36:45We're glad it's gone, though. OK. Next.

0:36:45 > 0:36:49There was a bit of banter, wasn't there, about this paperweight? Yeah.

0:36:49 > 0:36:54Well, it's Clichy. Only just behind Baccarat as a top brand.

0:36:54 > 0:36:58But I can't afford it because it's ?900 worth. Ooh! OK.

0:36:58 > 0:37:01Well done, boys. We're getting closer. Oh, we're climbing now.

0:37:01 > 0:37:06Well done. What's next? Well, the Vesta box, Sampson Mordan.

0:37:06 > 0:37:08You liked that, too, didn't you, chaps? Yeah.

0:37:08 > 0:37:11And to think that this was probably a personal

0:37:11 > 0:37:16commission by Sampson Mordan and the quality of the enamelling.

0:37:16 > 0:37:21Anyway, it's 1890, so it's got age, it's got everything we need,

0:37:21 > 0:37:25hasn't it? And it's 1,250 smackers' worth!

0:37:25 > 0:37:28Excellent. Now... Beautiful piece.

0:37:28 > 0:37:32OK, where are we going? Stamps or pigeon? Are you a philatelist?

0:37:32 > 0:37:36Stamp collector. Philately will get you nowhere.

0:37:36 > 0:37:41But this will because this is quite a valuable collection of stamps.

0:37:41 > 0:37:43Do you know why? No.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46I think it's the investiture of Prince Charles

0:37:46 > 0:37:49as the Prince of Wales. That's exactly right.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51And which castle is that? Um...

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Caernarfon. Spot on. 1969.

0:37:53 > 0:37:58That is not why they're valuable, chaps. Have another look at them.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00Something missing?

0:38:00 > 0:38:02Price? There's no price on them!

0:38:02 > 0:38:03There's always a price on a stamp

0:38:03 > 0:38:05unless it says first or second class.

0:38:05 > 0:38:09We did notice that, but... You did, but you thought that was irrelevant?

0:38:09 > 0:38:13Well, that makes them... I was going to say priceless. Oh!

0:38:13 > 0:38:15These are seriously valuable.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17These are worth over ?1,000.

0:38:17 > 0:38:19These are worth over ?1,500.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22These are worth over ?2,000. No!

0:38:23 > 0:38:29These are, in fact, worth 2,250.

0:38:29 > 0:38:30THEY EXCLAIM

0:38:30 > 0:38:32Get in there!

0:38:34 > 0:38:38What a tense moment! Can you draw a conclusion from that, chaps?

0:38:38 > 0:38:44I have done, yes. Yes. OK. You have won the top lot.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47The pigeon is the thing.

0:38:47 > 0:38:50So, Russell and Mark, come and join me to take a closer

0:38:50 > 0:38:55look at your chosen lot and see if we can tempt you with our mystery lot.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00There is that beautiful pigeon.

0:39:00 > 0:39:04You won him as your first lot and defended him

0:39:04 > 0:39:08cos no-one was interested. You just hid him away somehow. Yup.

0:39:08 > 0:39:11A bit lucky there, I think. But we know how much he's worth.

0:39:11 > 0:39:15You already have ?2,500 on the table for you.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18However, let's see if we can tempt you with today's mystery lot

0:39:18 > 0:39:23which, as I said, could be worth even more than the value of the pigeon.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25Charlie? I'm going to reveal it.

0:39:27 > 0:39:28Oh. A letter.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35There we are, Fern. Open that envelope. OK.

0:39:37 > 0:39:41And it says "Private Confidential"

0:39:41 > 0:39:42from 10 Downing Street, Whitehall.

0:39:42 > 0:39:4531st of October, 1931.

0:39:45 > 0:39:48And it finishes, "I am yours, always sincerely..."

0:39:48 > 0:39:52Is that Ramsay MacDonald? It is. Oh, my goodness!

0:39:53 > 0:39:55Tell us about this letter.

0:39:55 > 0:39:57This is a letter from the former

0:39:57 > 0:40:01Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald on Number 10 Downing Street

0:40:01 > 0:40:07headed paper, dated just four days after the general election of 1931.

0:40:09 > 0:40:14The election was a landslide victory for the national government

0:40:14 > 0:40:19after the collapse of MacDonald's previous Labour government.

0:40:19 > 0:40:22The letter, addressed to one of MacDonald's friends,

0:40:22 > 0:40:26berates the Labour Party in passionate language.

0:40:27 > 0:40:33So, interesting, political, but is it collectable? Wow.

0:40:33 > 0:40:34That's difficult.

0:40:35 > 0:40:39So, all that's left for you to decide is whether to stick

0:40:39 > 0:40:44with your pigeon, or to dump it in favour of today's mystery lot.

0:40:45 > 0:40:49Have a little chat and then tell us what you'd like to do.

0:40:51 > 0:40:52I'll be honest.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55They are really collectable, but I don't ever remember

0:40:55 > 0:40:59hearing, on any of the programmes I've seen, letters with value.

0:41:00 > 0:41:05It might be, though, because the rarity of its content.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07You happy with the pigeon, then? I'm happy with the pigeon.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10I'll stick with the pigeon. I'll have to go with what you say.

0:41:10 > 0:41:14Er... Oh! We're going to stick with the pigeon, then, in that case.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17Absolutely sure? Absolutely sure. OK.

0:41:17 > 0:41:20So they're going to stick with the pigeon,

0:41:20 > 0:41:23and that means you have won its worth in cold, hard cash.

0:41:23 > 0:41:25But, Charlie, please tell us what

0:41:25 > 0:41:28they have thrown away with your letter.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32To have a letter like this, that is so personal...

0:41:33 > 0:41:35..addressed to a great friend of his...

0:41:36 > 0:41:40Can you imagine if the newspapers of the day had got hold

0:41:40 > 0:41:46of something like that, berating his own party and all they stood for?

0:41:46 > 0:41:51And, of course, this makes it so interesting, so collectable.

0:41:51 > 0:41:56Have people that collect political memorabilia got money?

0:41:56 > 0:41:58Well, of course they've got money! Oh, dear.

0:41:58 > 0:42:02Do they spend their money? And if so, how much do they spend?

0:42:02 > 0:42:04I'm going to need a lie-down in a minute. Like me.

0:42:04 > 0:42:10On this, they would spend, in the right sale to the right person...

0:42:10 > 0:42:11Don't!

0:42:11 > 0:42:14..?400. Oh, yes! Oh!

0:42:14 > 0:42:18Oh! Thank you, Fern. Well done, lads!

0:42:18 > 0:42:21Well done, guys. Well done, well done! Well done, sir.

0:42:21 > 0:42:25Thank you. Well done. Thank you so much. Tremendous! Congratulations!

0:42:25 > 0:42:27Thank you. You've done so well today.

0:42:27 > 0:42:31Russell and Mark, they're going home with ?2,500.

0:42:31 > 0:42:33Charlie, you've given us such shots of adrenaline, fear,

0:42:33 > 0:42:36excitement and everything else. Thank you, Fern.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38I'm looking forward to seeing you next time. Thank you so much.

0:42:38 > 0:42:40So looking forward to seeing you again next time

0:42:40 > 0:42:44when three new teams join us to play For What It's Worth.

0:42:44 > 0:42:46We'll see you then. Goodbye.

0:42:50 > 0:42:53Mark's knowledge in the show... I thought he nailed it.

0:42:53 > 0:42:57I mean, when he said that Ireland was one of the biggest...

0:42:57 > 0:43:03..British Isles, I thought I was in trouble here!

0:43:03 > 0:43:10But he picked up at the end with the James Bond.
