0:00:14 > 0:00:17Hello and welcome to For What It's Worth,
0:00:17 > 0:00:20the quiz where it's not enough to simply know the answers -
0:00:20 > 0:00:23you need a nose for antiques as well.
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Three pairs of contestants are ready to play
0:00:25 > 0:00:29and in each team is a quizzer, responsible for answering
0:00:29 > 0:00:33general knowledge questions so that their partner, the picker,
0:00:33 > 0:00:38can choose an antique or collectable item to add to their collection.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40The aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43So, here are today's lots for your consideration.
0:00:43 > 0:00:4616 different antiques and collectables.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49We have a jug,
0:00:49 > 0:00:51jewellery,
0:00:51 > 0:00:52an axe,
0:00:52 > 0:00:54some spoons,

0:01:05 > 0:01:07a sculpture,
0:01:07 > 0:01:09a toilet lock,
0:01:09 > 0:01:11lithophanes,
0:01:11 > 0:01:13a tankard
0:01:13 > 0:01:15and a coin.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18All very different with very different values.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21One is worthless, worth £10 or less,
0:01:21 > 0:01:25but the rest increase in value up to our top lot,
0:01:25 > 0:01:28which is worth a whopping £2,500.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32That is the lot to spot because at the end of the show
0:01:32 > 0:01:34the winning pair will walk away with the cash equivalent
0:01:34 > 0:01:36of one of these items.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Well, first up, we have Julie and Victor,
0:01:39 > 0:01:41a married couple from Castleford.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43- A very warm welcome to you both. - Thank you.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46- Julie, you are picking the antiques for the team.- I am.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49When you search for items, what sort of things really get your attention?
0:01:49 > 0:01:53I like jewellery. I like pottery. I just know what I like.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56When I see something, I know what I like, but it's not always a theme.
0:01:56 > 0:02:00And sitting next to you is Victor. You have a bit of a nice love story.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01Picture this.
0:02:01 > 0:02:051977, Cinderella's disco
0:02:05 > 0:02:09and you, Victor, barge in front of a fantastic-looking girl
0:02:09 > 0:02:10to get to the bar before you.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13I did. I thought she was going to beat me to the bar. Yeah.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16- It was love at first sight. - Well, welcome to the show.
0:02:16 > 0:02:17- Lovely to have you here.- Thank you.
0:02:17 > 0:02:21Next up, we have Sarah and Cherry, from Northampton and Leicester,
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- who are best friends. Welcome to the show.- Hello.- Thank you.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27- Now, Sarah, you are the picker for the team today.- I am. Yes.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28Do you have any collections?
0:02:28 > 0:02:30I collect TG Green Cornishware,
0:02:30 > 0:02:32- so I have got a large collection of that at home.- I do.- Do you?
0:02:32 > 0:02:36- This is the lovely blue...- It is, yeah.- ..China plates, mugs, cups.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Sometimes they are in stripes,
0:02:38 > 0:02:40sometimes it's spots, sometimes it's...
0:02:40 > 0:02:42- Oh, I love it.- Thank you.- Good.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44And, Cherry, how did you both meet?
0:02:44 > 0:02:45Vintage fairs, really.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48We used to bump into each other and then we got talking
0:02:48 > 0:02:50and we found out we've got lots of things in common
0:02:50 > 0:02:53and now I have things that I sell in Sarah's shop.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Oh, she's one of your suppliers now? - Yes. A win-win for me.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58That's very clever.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00And, last but not least, we have Qin-him,
0:03:00 > 0:03:02originally from Hong Kong, now from Doncaster,
0:03:02 > 0:03:04and Joe from Sheffield.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08- Yeah, that's right.- Qin-him, you are the team's picker.- That's right.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11And I hear you have a very good eye for Chinese porcelain.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15You have four very special pieces at home that could make you a fortune.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Yes, I bought these at auction.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21They are four, what I think is finely-painted plaques.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25They are Chinese. I am hoping that they are barely 20th century
0:03:25 > 0:03:29and if I can show that they are painted by a master painter
0:03:29 > 0:03:30then I'm in the money, hopefully.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32They could be worth quite a bit.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36- They could be tens of thousands if they are real.- Tens of thousands?
0:03:36 > 0:03:39- Wow. Qin-him, good luck. - Fingers crossed.- Yeah, absolutely.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40Fingers crossed.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42And sitting next to you is Joe.
0:03:42 > 0:03:43You are quizzer for the team.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46How do you and Qin-him know each other?
0:03:46 > 0:03:48- This is my girlfriend's dad.- Oh.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- You've got to charm the pants off him?- Yeah, that's right.
0:03:51 > 0:03:52Well, welcome, all of you.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55We are looking forward to this game very much indeed.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Earlier, our teams inspected the lots,
0:03:57 > 0:04:01but could they separate the show stoppers from the door stoppers?
0:04:03 > 0:04:05- Right.- Oh, it's not what I expected.
0:04:07 > 0:04:08There's a range of stuff.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12- Ooh. Where shall we look first? - Oh, my goodness.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Watercolour. Is it signed? Has it got any signature on it? No.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18So, you can't make a judgment, can you, without a signature?
0:04:18 > 0:04:20- Pigskin maybe?- I'm guessing leather.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Pre-Stanley Matthews, I think. It's beautiful.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24Not my thing, football.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28I've never seen anything like that.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31They kind of look like scenes from Dickens or something, don't they?
0:04:31 > 0:04:34It's meant to be viewed with the light from the back
0:04:34 > 0:04:35and there is the picture.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39- Could be brass. No, copper. - Could be bronze.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41Are they usually hollow?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43- Is it a pen or a pipe? - A pen, I think.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48These look like they've got new heads on them, don't they?
0:04:48 > 0:04:50Looks like it was made yesterday.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52They're bonny things if you are into that.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54If you like that sort of thing.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- The Laws Of Cricket. - Nice drawings, aren't they?
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Aye, that's interesting.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01- Has it got any addition in the front? Has it got anything? - No dates in it.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04It looks like it might be fairly new.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06I like the spoons because they are from Sheffield.
0:05:06 > 0:05:07Yes. Sterling silver.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- Mappin and Webb, so, nice. - Yeah, nice. Not worth a lot, though.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- I think these are probably worth a tenner.- There're nice.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- Something Britton.- Yes.
0:05:17 > 0:05:18Fern Britton's tankard.
0:05:18 > 0:05:19SHE LAUGHS
0:05:19 > 0:05:21- Pewter.- Yes, certainly pewter.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23- What is it? A type of metal? - Type of metal.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25There's no hallmarks on it.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29- An axe. Ooh.- But it's beautifully done and that's all inlaid.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33And I wonder if that is either ivory, or is it whalebone?
0:05:33 > 0:05:34It could be ceremonial.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Military belt. This is the Cross of Malta, isn't it?
0:05:39 > 0:05:40Is it a policeman's belt?
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Is it something that a policeman would wear?
0:05:43 > 0:05:46- A bit like a pastry cutter. - I think that's a pastry cutter.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49And this is old. You can see the patination on the handle here.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Let's see what marking's on the back.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55I think it looks like a piece of Lalique.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Not Lalee. It's Lalique. - Oh, Lalique?
0:06:01 > 0:06:05Stoneware jug. Nice pattern. Salt glaze.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07I don't think much of this, to be honest.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08It's just a utilitarian jug.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12That's an old toilet lock, isn't it?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14It's the one you put a penny in the top here.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17- No. It's not.- No.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20- Regent Street, Piccadilly. - Oh, that's nice, isn't it?
0:06:20 > 0:06:23- Are there any marks on it? - Diamonds, do you think?
0:06:23 > 0:06:25That'll be worth a few bob.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28This is a Persian coin.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Is that Arabic or something? Or is it...?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32- Hieroglyphics?- Yeah.- I don't know.
0:06:32 > 0:06:33- Brooch.- Brooch.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35Sculpture.
0:06:35 > 0:06:36- Axe.- Yeah.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38- Jewellery.- Jewellery.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40- Sculpture.- Axe.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43Diamond brooch from Harrods.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Medieval axe. Lithophanes.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- I think we are done.- Yeah.- This way.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Joining me is our resident antiques expert, Kate Bliss.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Kate, what do you make of these lots?
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Well, teams, we have some treats in store for you today
0:06:59 > 0:07:02amongst this collection behind me.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06But if I was in your shoes, I'd be looking at the detail of things.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08I'd be looking at condition.
0:07:08 > 0:07:09I'd be thinking about age,
0:07:09 > 0:07:14but I'd also be thinking about provenance and rarity.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16How do you arrive at the valuation on things?
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Well, Fern, myself and the independent valuer
0:07:19 > 0:07:20have looked at these items
0:07:20 > 0:07:23and we've agreed that they are based on a hammer price.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27That means the price that a bidder would pay at the fall of a hammer
0:07:27 > 0:07:30and not including any auction costs.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32As well as those little treasures,
0:07:32 > 0:07:37we have our mystery lot hidden under the shroud of mystery,
0:07:37 > 0:07:41poised to be uncovered at the end of the show to tempt our winners.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44But for now, it is time for Round One.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49I'm going to ask ten general knowledge questions.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Quizzers, if you buzz in with the correct answer,
0:07:51 > 0:07:54your picker gets to add a lot to your collection.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56But beware,
0:07:56 > 0:07:59buzz in incorrectly and you'll be frozen out of the next question.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03Quizzers, your job is to give the picker the chance
0:08:03 > 0:08:05to bag the top lots first.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06Fingers on buzzers.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17It is The Two Ronnies.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20"So, it's goodnight from me, and it's goodnight from him."
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- Sarah, you get first pick. - Ooh, lovely.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26I'm going to pick the axe, please.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29The axe. There you go.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Question number two.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38- Yes, Cherry.- Mozart.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40It is Mozart. Sarah, you get to pick.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43Wow. It's me again, yes. I'm going to go for the jewellery, please.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45- The jewellery.- Thank you.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47The jewellery has gone into your collection.
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Question three.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52At which university did Prime Minister David Cameron

0:08:58 > 0:09:00Oh, incorrect. It was the other one.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01Oxford.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03You are frozen out of the next question.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04Question four.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Papaw is another name for which fruit?
0:09:08 > 0:09:10- Yes, Cherry.- Prickly pear.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12Incorrect.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14I'm sorry, it's papaya.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17So, Cherry and Sarah, you are now frozen out of the next question.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Joe and Qin-him, you are back in.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Question five.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24Opposite which acclaimed English actor

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Time up. Laurence Olivier.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Cherry is going, "Yes, I knew that."
0:09:34 > 0:09:37But you were frozen out. You are now back in the game.
0:09:37 > 0:09:38Question six.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Antony Gormley. Correct.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49- Sarah, have a pick. - I'll have the sculpture, please.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- The sculpture is yours.- Thank you.
0:09:52 > 0:09:53Question seven.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57What is the name of the highest mountain in Africa?
0:09:57 > 0:09:58- Yes, Joe.- Kilimanjaro.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01It is Kilimanjaro. Have you climbed it?
0:10:01 > 0:10:03No. I've seen a lot of famous people that have, though,
0:10:03 > 0:10:05so I think that's where it comes from.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Qin-him, your choice.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09We'll take the lithophanes, please.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12The lithophanes. That is joining your collection.

0:10:30 > 0:10:31Question nine.
0:10:31 > 0:10:35What was the name of the first man in space?
0:10:35 > 0:10:36Yes, Joe.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Oh, it's not the one that I'm thinking of.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41- I think I've pressed it too quick but I'll go with... - I need an answer.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45- ..Lance Armstrong.- No. The correct answer is Yuri Gagarin.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47You are frozen out of the last question.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Question ten.
0:10:50 > 0:10:51Victor.

0:11:02 > 0:11:03Time up.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Sir Tim Berners-Lee.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Yeah. At the end of that round, let's see where we stand.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Oh, well. See you later.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Victor and Julie haven't spoiled their cabinet yet with any lots.
0:11:14 > 0:11:19Cherry and Sarah, you have the axe, the sculpture, the football
0:11:19 > 0:11:20and the jewellery.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24Joe and Qin-him, you have the lithophanes.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Well, our teams have started to build their collections
0:11:27 > 0:11:29but before we have a chance to add to them,
0:11:29 > 0:11:34Kate is going to give each pair a fact about a lot of their choice.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37These snippets of information should give you vital clues
0:11:37 > 0:11:40about what it is worth, so choose wisely.
0:11:40 > 0:11:45You can choose one of yours or one from anyone else's collection
0:11:45 > 0:11:47or something that is still up for grabs on the grid.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49So, Julie, let's start with you.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52Which lot would you like to hear about?
0:11:52 > 0:11:55- I would like to hear about the jewellery.- The jewellery,
0:11:55 > 0:11:58which is in Cherry and Sarah's collection.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Kate, the jewellery, please.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01The jewellery.
0:12:01 > 0:12:07This piece of jewellery is typical of a Victorian diamond brooch
0:12:07 > 0:12:09of late 19th century.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11It may be worn as a pendant,
0:12:11 > 0:12:15which is more commercial in today's market,
0:12:15 > 0:12:17as well as a brooch.
0:12:17 > 0:12:24It has an approximate total diamond weight of five carats,
0:12:24 > 0:12:28made up of approximately 61 old-cut diamonds
0:12:28 > 0:12:32with little smaller rose-cut stones to the points.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35And they give a lovely sparkle or twinkle,
0:12:35 > 0:12:38which on a showy piece like this,
0:12:38 > 0:12:40intended for evening wear,
0:12:40 > 0:12:43would be captured in candlelight.
0:12:43 > 0:12:48The piece isn't signed so the maker is unknown.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51Well, you made it sound very interesting indeed.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Sarah, what would you like to know more about?
0:12:53 > 0:12:55I'd like to know about the axe, please, Fern.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57The axe. Certainly.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01This is a late 17th century
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Saxon miner's axe.
0:13:04 > 0:13:08This type of axe is called a bergbarte
0:13:08 > 0:13:11and while it is derived from the tool used for mining,
0:13:11 > 0:13:15it evolved into a ceremonial accessory during the 17th century.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19This one is made from a fruitwood shaft
0:13:19 > 0:13:22which has been inlaid with cartouches -
0:13:22 > 0:13:25panels intended to hold decoration.
0:13:25 > 0:13:30The steel blade is pierced with dots and another cross motif
0:13:30 > 0:13:34and carved into the butt of the handle is the date,
0:13:34 > 0:13:361666.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41Hmm. Sarah, has that whet your appetite?
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Yes, I'm glad it's in my patch. That's fine.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Qin-him, your choice.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Yes, I would like to know something about the sculpture, please.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53The sculpture, which again is in the girls' collection.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57The famous French sculptor Ernest Rancoulet
0:13:57 > 0:13:59crafted in many different materials.
0:13:59 > 0:14:04His bronze pieces can fetch eye-watering sums at auction.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07This piece is late 19th century
0:14:07 > 0:14:11and it is actually made of spelter,
0:14:11 > 0:14:14which is crudely-smelted zinc.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17And you can tell it is spelter because of three main features -
0:14:17 > 0:14:20there are pittings on the surface,
0:14:20 > 0:14:23it isn't cold to touch like bronze
0:14:23 > 0:14:27and it cracks quite easily, it is quite brittle.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29But it is signed Rancoulet
0:14:29 > 0:14:34and is ultimately an original piece by a great sculptor.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Qin-him, does that interest you?
0:14:36 > 0:14:38Yes, very much so.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42Now that you are all a little more clued up on today's lots,
0:14:42 > 0:14:45let's give you the chance to add more of them to your collections.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Bear in mind that at the end of this round the team with the least
0:14:48 > 0:14:51valuable collection will be eliminated.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Three more lots are now available to each pair.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00This time, pickers, you target a lot
0:15:00 > 0:15:05and, quizzers, you then try to secure it by answering a question correctly.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08But in this round the lots come with their own question categories
0:15:08 > 0:15:09and here they are.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12So, for example, if you were to target the vase,
0:15:12 > 0:15:15you would be given the opportunity to choose between a question
0:15:15 > 0:15:19on Children's Literature or '80s Music.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22Julie and Victor, you are up first, so, Julie,
0:15:22 > 0:15:25what is the lot you want?
0:15:25 > 0:15:28I think I'll go with the book.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32Victor, Physical Geography or Explorers?
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Physical Geography, I think. - Physical Geography. Here we go.
0:15:36 > 0:15:41What material can be classed as metamorphic, sedimentary or igneous?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44- Rocks.- Yes, correct.- Wey!
0:15:44 > 0:15:47Julie, the book is yours,
0:15:47 > 0:15:49and your collection is off the mark.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Excellent. JULIE LAUGHS
0:15:51 > 0:15:55- Sarah, what would you like to target? - I'd like the painting, please.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59The painting. So, Cherry, Children's Literature or Explorers?
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Children's Literature, please.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Which author wrote The Lorax?
0:16:08 > 0:16:10A total guess, Michael Morpurgo.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Incorrect. Dr Seuss.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16The painting stays on the grid. Qin-him,
0:16:16 > 0:16:18- what do you want?- The vase, please.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23The vase. OK, Joe, Children's Literature or '80s Music?
0:16:23 > 0:16:26It is a bit before my time, but I will go '80s Music.
0:16:26 > 0:16:30I hate it when they say that. It shouldn't be allowed. LAUGHTER
0:16:30 > 0:16:34'80s Music it is. Who had a 1984 UK hit
0:16:34 > 0:16:37with Holding Out For A Hero?
0:16:39 > 0:16:41- You are singing it. Can you see... - It is going through my head.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43Can you see the person?
0:16:43 > 0:16:44Roxette.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Roxette is incorrect.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50It is Bonnie Tyler. Julie, back to you. What would you like?
0:16:50 > 0:16:53- The tankard, please.- The tankard.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Physics or Explorers, Victor?
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- Physics, I think.- Physics. Here we go.
0:16:59 > 0:17:04Which famous scientist proposed the theory of special relativity?
0:17:04 > 0:17:06Oh, that is Einstein.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08- It is correct, well done.- Yes!
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- Julie, the tankard is yours.- Oh, wow.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16I love it, you're so excited. Sarah, what would you like?
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Well, I'm still going to try for the painting again,
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- so good luck, Cherry.- Children's Literature, I think, please.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23OK, Children's Literature.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27Instead of humans, what does the BFG eat?
0:17:27 > 0:17:31Um... Big Friendly Giant eats...
0:17:32 > 0:17:33..fruit.
0:17:33 > 0:17:36I need you to be a little more specific.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- Peaches.- Incorrect.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43- It is the snozzcumber, of course. - Of course.- Yes.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45BFG eats snozzcumbers.
0:17:45 > 0:17:49The painting stays on the grid. Qin-him, what would you like?
0:17:49 > 0:17:53- Toilet lock, please.- The toilet lock. Physics or Formula One, Joe?
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- I'll go Physics.- Physics.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00Radio detection and ranging is better known by what acronym?
0:18:02 > 0:18:03Radar.
0:18:03 > 0:18:08Correct, well done, Joe. Qin-him, you've got the toilet lock.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10I don't know what we're going to do with that.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14Where do we stand halfway through Round Two?
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Victor and Julie, you've stormed it in this round.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19You added the book and the tankard.
0:18:19 > 0:18:24Cherry and Sarah, you have the axe, the sculpture, the football
0:18:24 > 0:18:25and the jewellery.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30And Qin-him and Joe, you have the lithophanes, and you added the toilet
0:18:30 > 0:18:33lock to your collection right at the end, well done.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35OK, teams, your collections are growing.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Now, remember, at the end of this round,
0:18:37 > 0:18:40the pair with the least valuable collection will be leaving us,
0:18:40 > 0:18:43so there is one last lot available to each team.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47And this time you can either go for what's left on the grid
0:18:47 > 0:18:52or you can try to steal an antique that is in a rival team's collection.
0:18:52 > 0:18:57But, pickers, be warned, if you choose to steal from another team,
0:18:57 > 0:19:02their quizzer will get to decide your quizzer's category.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Just one rule here.
0:19:04 > 0:19:09You can't steal from a team who has just one lot left in their collection.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Right, Julie, do you want to target a lot from the grid
0:19:12 > 0:19:15or have you got your eye on something in another collection?
0:19:15 > 0:19:18- Oh, I'm going to steal.- Good. SHE LAUGHS
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Who are you stealing from, and what?
0:19:20 > 0:19:22I'm stealing from Cherry.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24- From Cherry, yes.- Thank you(!)
0:19:24 > 0:19:27And I think I'd like to steal the sculpture
0:19:27 > 0:19:29- because Victor wanted that. - The sculpture. OK.
0:19:29 > 0:19:34Well, Cherry, you now have to pick a category for Victor to answer.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38So find a difficult one and defend your sculpture.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40- Bollywood.- Bollywood.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43- I knew that was going to come up. - LAUGHTER
0:19:43 > 0:19:44Here we go, Victor.
0:19:44 > 0:19:48The term Bollywood combines Hollywood
0:19:48 > 0:19:50with which other historic place team?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55- Is at Bombay?- Correct!
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- Wow!- Correct.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01I thought it was obvious, but I thought, "It can't be that obvious."
0:20:01 > 0:20:04The sculpture is yours. Sorry, Cherry
0:20:04 > 0:20:07- and Sarah, you lose it.- That's OK.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09Do you want to pick something from the grid
0:20:09 > 0:20:11or would you like to steal from someone else?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13I'd like to pick the lithophanes, please, Fern.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16- You're going to steal from Qin-him and Joe, if you can.- Yes.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20Joe, you pick a category, please, for Cherry.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23I think the best one would be Formula One.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- OK, Cherry.- Great(!)
0:20:25 > 0:20:27THEY LAUGH
0:20:27 > 0:20:29How many drivers are awarded points
0:20:29 > 0:20:33at the end of a Formula One Grand Prix race?
0:20:33 > 0:20:34Three.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37No, incorrect. It is the first ten.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39- Oh, OK.- Very well defended, Joe.
0:20:39 > 0:20:43The lithophanes remain in your collection.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45Qin-him, would you like to take from the grid
0:20:45 > 0:20:47or nick from someone else?
0:20:47 > 0:20:49I would like to steal the sculpture.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53- Oh!- No!- The sculpture, OK.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58Victor, would you like to choose a category for Joe to answer?
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Formula One. I think he might struggle with that.
0:21:01 > 0:21:05What nationality is driver Sebastian Vettel?
0:21:05 > 0:21:06I know he is a champion.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Sebastian Vettel, I think he is German.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12Correct, he is German.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14My goodness, this sculpture is dizzy.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19He's going over to your collection right now.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22OK, let's have a look at how we stand at the end of that round.
0:21:22 > 0:21:26Victor and Julie, you have the book and the tankard.
0:21:26 > 0:21:31Cherry and Sarah, you have the axe, the football and the jewellery.
0:21:31 > 0:21:36And Joe and Qin-him, you have the lithophanes, which you defended,
0:21:36 > 0:21:40the toilet lock, and you've stolen the sculpture.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44That's it for Round Two. And for one team it is the end of the road.
0:21:44 > 0:21:47We've calculated the combined value of your items
0:21:47 > 0:21:51and the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated,
0:21:51 > 0:21:54taking their lots out of the game with them.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57So, Kate has been keeping tabs.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Who is leaving us first?
0:21:59 > 0:22:01The pair leaving us first...
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- ..is Julie and Victor.- Oh!
0:22:07 > 0:22:10- I'm so sorry.- Never mind.- Never mind.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13It's been wonderful to have you here, but before you leave,
0:22:13 > 0:22:16let's find out about the lots leaving the game with you.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19Well, let's have a little look. You went straight in with the book.
0:22:19 > 0:22:22- Are you a cricketing fan? - Not really, no.
0:22:22 > 0:22:24I just like the pictures themselves
0:22:24 > 0:22:27and could probably see them in a frame, maybe.
0:22:27 > 0:22:32Actually, it's those prints which are really interesting to collectors.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35And the book is signed on the front, Chas Crombie.
0:22:35 > 0:22:40And Chas Crombie, of course, was Charles Exeter Devereux Crombie,
0:22:40 > 0:22:43an early 20th-century cartoonist.
0:22:43 > 0:22:47So they're great fun and they were very popular in their day.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Now, I've seen loads of copies of the Laws Of Cricket coming
0:22:50 > 0:22:55up at auction, but they are usually the later editions.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57This is an original,
0:22:57 > 0:23:01- which makes it worth £400.- Wow!
0:23:01 > 0:23:02- That's...- Didn't expect that.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04And now the tankard, Kate.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07Now, the tankard, you all had a good look at this.
0:23:07 > 0:23:13Victor, you noticed on the bottom that it says "Britton, Battersea".
0:23:13 > 0:23:15And you thought this was Fern's, didn't you?
0:23:15 > 0:23:18- You thought this had come out of Fern's cupboard.- I did.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22It dates back to the 18th century.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26And if you wanted to have some beer from your local pub,
0:23:26 > 0:23:30you'd send for your servant and he would come
0:23:30 > 0:23:33and collect your mug, hence the initials on the front -
0:23:33 > 0:23:36so you would know that it was yours.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39It's also got the "VR" on it,
0:23:39 > 0:23:42which is a touchmark for pewter.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45You all knew that it was pewter,
0:23:45 > 0:23:49but pewter, unfortunately, is very out of fashion.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52This is today's worthless lot.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54- Oh.- Oh!
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- Who picked that? I didn't!- Wow.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02- So the total value of your collection is £400.- OK.
0:24:02 > 0:24:04Julie and Victor, it has been lovely to have you,
0:24:04 > 0:24:07but it is now time to bring the hammer down on your collection
0:24:07 > 0:24:10and say thank you for playing For What It's Worth.
0:24:10 > 0:24:11Thank you.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16Surprised to find that the book was worth so much. I didn't...
0:24:16 > 0:24:18Didn't expect it to be as much as that.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21I think the top lot might be the diamonds.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24In a jewellery shop you would have paid £2,000 for an item like that.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30The unclaimed lots in the grid are now also leaving the game,
0:24:30 > 0:24:33so let's quickly find out from Kate what they were worth
0:24:33 > 0:24:37and if the top lot is still in the game.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39So, let's start with the spoons.
0:24:39 > 0:24:44They are silver, they are hallmarked for Sheffield. Joe, your hometown.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46And you noticed that, didn't you?
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Yes, I saw them and I thought, "There's so many of them
0:24:48 > 0:24:51"around Sheffield, maybe they're not worth that much."
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Well, I think you're definitely along the right lines.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56You see these little bean-finialed coffee spoons
0:24:56 > 0:24:58all the time in the saleroom.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- Value, £25.- Oh.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Now, the coin.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06You all had a really good look at this,
0:25:06 > 0:25:08and you puzzled over the language on it.
0:25:08 > 0:25:12- It is in fact Indian and it is a silver rupee.- Oh!
0:25:12 > 0:25:17And it dates from the very early part of the 18th century.
0:25:17 > 0:25:22The East India Company had settlements on the coast of India
0:25:22 > 0:25:25and they started making their own coins.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28And this comes from that particular period.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31But thousands of them were produced,
0:25:31 > 0:25:34so the value is quite low - £35.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40- OK, £35, that's gone. - Next we have the jug.
0:25:40 > 0:25:45It's really a sort of very traditional English antique.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48Cherry, straight in there. It is salt glazed, you said.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52Go to the top of the class. It's got that lovely
0:25:52 > 0:25:54dark brown colour to it.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58You liked the wavy, simple decoration on it.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00And this is produced just by throwing common
0:26:00 > 0:26:05salt into the kiln, and the reaction happens to make that lovely glaze.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08- And the value, £50.- Really?
0:26:08 > 0:26:13- OK, what's next? - Next we have the cutter.
0:26:13 > 0:26:18Now, I think both teams thought that this was a culinary item,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20and actually you are on the right track,
0:26:20 > 0:26:24but there is also an ecclesiastical element.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27Because despite looking like a fantastic scone cutter...
0:26:27 > 0:26:30- Wouldn't you say, Fern? - Absolutely.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33..this is actually a French, 18th-century
0:26:33 > 0:26:36communion wafer cutter.
0:26:36 > 0:26:40There is a collector's market for tools, so the value
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- is £100.- Ah!
0:26:43 > 0:26:46Next we have the vase.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Teams, you both said Lalique, but then you said,
0:26:49 > 0:26:51"But actually, I don't think it is."
0:26:51 > 0:26:55- And I was dying for you to ask me about it, but nobody did.- Oh.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58So is it, or is it not, Lalique?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01- It is.- Oh.
0:27:01 > 0:27:05It is signed, and he is a pioneering name
0:27:05 > 0:27:09when we talk about glassware that's spanned the Art Nouveau period,
0:27:09 > 0:27:11right through to the Art Deco period.
0:27:11 > 0:27:16With that big name, of course, you do get very big prices.
0:27:16 > 0:27:21But the value, with that little chip in it on the base,
0:27:21 > 0:27:26- if you noticed that, is £150.- Oh. - Phew!
0:27:26 > 0:27:27SHE LAUGHS
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- I'd still like it, wouldn't you? - It's lovely, isn't it?- It is.
0:27:30 > 0:27:34- I didn't like it.- We haven't hit any big numbers yet.- The belt.
0:27:36 > 0:27:40- Now, Qin-him, you really homed in on this, didn't you?- I liked it a lot.
0:27:40 > 0:27:44It's an officer's cross belt. Called a cross belt
0:27:44 > 0:27:47because it would be worn across and it would have held a sword.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Perhaps an ammunition pouch as well.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51And of course it has that whistle.
0:27:51 > 0:27:55This belonged to an officer in one of the most important
0:27:55 > 0:28:00regiments in the Indian Army, the Rajputana Rifles.
0:28:00 > 0:28:06- Mmm.- And this belt is actually dating from 1903,
0:28:06 > 0:28:10when Lord Kitchener had a massive reshuffle of the Indian Army,
0:28:10 > 0:28:14so it is a very interesting period for that regiment.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18- These don't come up very often at auction.- No.
0:28:18 > 0:28:20£700.
0:28:20 > 0:28:23Now, the painting.
0:28:23 > 0:28:27- Cherry, Sarah, you went for it twice.- We did, I liked it.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31Well, I can tell you that it's a watercolour.
0:28:31 > 0:28:33It's a lovely composition.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34But with watercolours like this,
0:28:34 > 0:28:37we have to look at the quality of the work
0:28:37 > 0:28:40and the detail on it is superb.
0:28:40 > 0:28:45Which brings me to tell you that it is actually by one of the chief
0:28:45 > 0:28:49English watercolourists, a man called Peter De Wint.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52- And you recognised that it wasn't signed.- No.
0:28:52 > 0:28:57But this has been authenticated as an actual Peter De Wint.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59- Sarah and Cherry... - Oh, no.
0:28:59 > 0:29:03- ..£1,000.- OK.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06So that's a big lot, but it's not the top lot.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09So, Kate, this is the final lot leaving the game.
0:29:09 > 0:29:12- I thought these were charming. - Did you, Fern?
0:29:12 > 0:29:15- But actually, teams, you didn't like them, did you?- No.
0:29:15 > 0:29:18Didn't feel like they were old pieces.
0:29:18 > 0:29:21You are absolutely right, they're not old.
0:29:21 > 0:29:23But it doesn't have to be old to be valuable.
0:29:23 > 0:29:27It's all about the quality. The salmon is my favourite.
0:29:27 > 0:29:31You can see the glistening of the scales on it.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33They are beautifully made...
0:29:33 > 0:29:37by one of the most highly respected walking stick makers of today.
0:29:37 > 0:29:39His name is Ian Taylor.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42In fact, he does special commissions for celebrities
0:29:42 > 0:29:46- and Her Majesty the Queen. - And there's five.
0:29:46 > 0:29:50The five walking sticks have a cumulative value
0:29:50 > 0:29:53- of £2,500...- Oh!- Oh, crikey.
0:29:53 > 0:29:56..which makes them today's top lot.
0:29:56 > 0:29:59Well, who would have known they would be £500 each?
0:29:59 > 0:30:04But now we know the bottom lot and the top lot have left the game.
0:30:04 > 0:30:07Just two pairs of contestants left, and before we go any further,
0:30:07 > 0:30:11Kate is going to give you another fact about a lot of your choice.
0:30:11 > 0:30:14So, Sarah, what lot do you need to know more about?
0:30:14 > 0:30:16The football, please.
0:30:16 > 0:30:19The first footballs were made of natural materials,
0:30:19 > 0:30:21such as inflated pigs' bladders,
0:30:21 > 0:30:24that were later put inside a leather cover.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27And the oldest football still in existence, which is
0:30:27 > 0:30:32thought to have been made around 1550, was discovered in the roof
0:30:32 > 0:30:36of Stirling Castle in Scotland, in 1981.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39This one isn't quite so old,
0:30:39 > 0:30:42but it still dates to the late 19th century.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45You can see that it comes from the period
0:30:45 > 0:30:48when balls were still being laced up.
0:30:48 > 0:30:52Football memorabilia is obviously big business
0:30:52 > 0:30:56- and this one survived in incredible condition.- Mmm.
0:30:56 > 0:31:01- Qin-him, what would you like to know more about?- The lithophanes, please.
0:31:01 > 0:31:04So, let me tell you about the lithophanes, or lithopanes,
0:31:04 > 0:31:06as they are sometimes called.
0:31:06 > 0:31:11Victorian lithophanes are etched or moulded artwork in very thin,
0:31:11 > 0:31:15translucent porcelain that can only be seen clearly
0:31:15 > 0:31:18when backlit with a light source.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22They feature designs or scenes pressed into the surface
0:31:22 > 0:31:25so that when the light is shining behind them,
0:31:25 > 0:31:28the image appears in what's called "en grisaille",
0:31:28 > 0:31:30which is literally "in grey".
0:31:30 > 0:31:34This process basically creates a three-dimensional image.
0:31:34 > 0:31:36Did you know exactly what they were?
0:31:36 > 0:31:39I held them up to a light source
0:31:39 > 0:31:43and I knew you could see a picture in there. Interesting.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46Well, those are all the facts available to you,
0:31:46 > 0:31:48so it is now time for our final round.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53I'm going to give the quizzers a category.
0:31:53 > 0:31:56They then take turns to say answers in that category.
0:31:56 > 0:32:01For example, if I say most common UK surnames, Joe, you might say Smith.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05Cherry, you might say Jones, and then Evans and so on.
0:32:05 > 0:32:09If you fail to give an answer, if you repeat an answer
0:32:09 > 0:32:12or you give a wrong answer, you lose that category
0:32:12 > 0:32:17and the opponents' picker will be able to steal a lot from your collection.
0:32:17 > 0:32:22Remember, it's the total value of your collections that matter at the end of this round.
0:32:22 > 0:32:26One high-priced lot could be more valuable than your opponents'
0:32:26 > 0:32:28entire collection.
0:32:28 > 0:32:32You can steal the last item in your opponents' collection,
0:32:32 > 0:32:36so this round is all about defending what you've got
0:32:36 > 0:32:39as well as pilfering your opponents' lots.
0:32:39 > 0:32:40There are three categories.
0:32:40 > 0:32:44The pair with the most valuable collection at this point go first.
0:32:44 > 0:32:46So, Kate, who is that?
0:32:46 > 0:32:49I can reveal that the team who currently has the most
0:32:49 > 0:32:50valuable collection...
0:32:54 > 0:32:58- ..is Sarah and Cherry.- Oh, OK.
0:32:58 > 0:33:02Cherry, you will start us off, and the first category is...
0:33:07 > 0:33:09Cherry, please give me an answer.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12The franc from France.
0:33:12 > 0:33:14The French franc.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17- The French franc.- Correct. Joe.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19That's one I was going to go for. Um...
0:33:22 > 0:33:24The Swiss franc.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26That is incorrect.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29There is a currency called the Swiss franc,
0:33:29 > 0:33:32but the Swiss did not adopt the euro.
0:33:32 > 0:33:37You could have had the Dutch guilder, the Irish pound,
0:33:37 > 0:33:41the Spanish peseta and so on.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45OK, Sarah, what would you like to pinch from Qin-him's collection?
0:33:45 > 0:33:49- Well, I would like the sculpture back, please.- The sculpture.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52- OK, that is back into your collection.- Thank you.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54Now, Joe, here comes your category.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02Joe, can have an answer, please?
0:34:02 > 0:34:04- Dover.- Correct. Cherry.
0:34:04 > 0:34:08- Fastnet.- Correct. Joe.
0:34:08 > 0:34:11- King's Lynn.- Incorrect, Joe. I'm so sorry.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14Now, you could have had Dogger,
0:34:14 > 0:34:18Lundy, Thames and many others.
0:34:18 > 0:34:22I'm so sorry, Joe. But, Sarah, are you rubbing your hands with glee?
0:34:22 > 0:34:25I'm trying not to look too pleased.
0:34:25 > 0:34:27What have you got your eye on in that collection?
0:34:27 > 0:34:31- I'd like the lithophanes, please. - They are coming to you.- Thank you.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34One last category. It's Cherry to start.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38Joe, if you get this, you can nick something back, OK? Here we go.
0:34:38 > 0:34:39Here's the category.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44- Cherry, please give me an answer. - Alpha.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47Correct. Joe.
0:34:47 > 0:34:49- Beta.- Correct.
0:34:49 > 0:34:50- Cherry.- Gamma.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52Correct. Joe.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56Kappa.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59Correct. Cherry.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00Epsilon.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Correct. Joe.
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Papa.
0:35:06 > 0:35:08Jo, that's incorrect.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11I think you were thinking of the Nato alphabet,
0:35:11 > 0:35:14- where P is for "papa".- Oh! Yeah.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17Well done. You could have had
0:35:17 > 0:35:21delta, lambda, sigma, etc, etc.
0:35:21 > 0:35:25So, Cherry, have you got a penny for the toilet lock?
0:35:25 > 0:35:26THEY LAUGH
0:35:26 > 0:35:29There you are, it is in your collection.
0:35:29 > 0:35:32That's it. Your collections are now fixed,
0:35:32 > 0:35:36and it goes without saying that with Joe and Qin-him having nothing
0:35:36 > 0:35:41left in their collection, today's winners are Sarah and Cherry.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47Commiserations to you, Qin-him and Joe,
0:35:47 > 0:35:50but thank you so much for playing For What It's Worth.
0:35:51 > 0:35:53I think we picked a decent basket, really,
0:35:53 > 0:35:56but again it comes down to luck on the day.
0:35:56 > 0:36:00I thought the top lots were the diamond and the axe
0:36:00 > 0:36:03and I had just no idea about the walking sticks -
0:36:03 > 0:36:07I'd dismissed them as being too modern to be worth much.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10Well done, Sarah and Cherry.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13You built the most valuable collection
0:36:13 > 0:36:14and you are today's winners,
0:36:14 > 0:36:17and now all that remains is for you to claim your prize.
0:36:17 > 0:36:21All you have to do is pick a lot from your collection
0:36:21 > 0:36:23and we will give you its value in cash. So...
0:36:23 > 0:36:27Oh, my goodness. I'm not sure about this sculpture now
0:36:27 > 0:36:31- that it's not a bronze one. - It's spelter.
0:36:31 > 0:36:32I still like the diamonds.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34Yes, we're keen on the diamonds.
0:36:34 > 0:36:39But as Kate said there is nothing signed on the back of the diamonds.
0:36:39 > 0:36:43The axe I still think is quite a valuable piece, quite an old piece.
0:36:43 > 0:36:47- Football.- I like the diamonds or the axe.
0:36:47 > 0:36:49- Go with the diamonds. - Let's go diamonds.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53So you've chosen the diamond brooch,
0:36:53 > 0:36:55but before we tell you what it's worth, Kate,
0:36:55 > 0:36:59please could you tell us the value of the lots they have rejected?
0:36:59 > 0:37:01Let's get to the bottom of this sculpture
0:37:01 > 0:37:05because this sculpture has zipped around and it's come back to you.
0:37:05 > 0:37:08So we know it's by Rancoulet
0:37:08 > 0:37:12and we know it's spelter, not bronze.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16If it was bronze it would be in the thousands, but it isn't,
0:37:16 > 0:37:17so it's £200.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Oh!
0:37:19 > 0:37:22On we go, the lithophanes, or lithopanes.
0:37:22 > 0:37:25The Victorians had a craze for them
0:37:25 > 0:37:28but they've gone in and out of fashion.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32In the current market, not particularly in vogue.
0:37:32 > 0:37:36There are three of them and the cumulative value of the three
0:37:36 > 0:37:39is £300.
0:37:39 > 0:37:44So, next we have this very intriguing toilet lock.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46You thought this was quite quirky.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49I like it, I think they're worth quite a bit of money now, actually.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52This is a Maskelyne toilet door lock.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55John Maskelyne trained as a watchmaker
0:37:55 > 0:37:59but became interested in magic, and he wanted to dispel
0:37:59 > 0:38:03the myth of supernatural powers being used in magic.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06He actually exposed a pair of fraudulent magicians
0:38:06 > 0:38:09called the Davenport Brothers,
0:38:09 > 0:38:12but he also was an inventor of quirky things like this.
0:38:12 > 0:38:18But this you would have seen on lavatories in London
0:38:18 > 0:38:21in the late 19th century, 1892,
0:38:21 > 0:38:25and of course you put a penny in the slot.
0:38:25 > 0:38:29It didn't actually lock until that penny went into it,
0:38:29 > 0:38:32hence the term "to spend a penny".
0:38:32 > 0:38:34£500 worth.
0:38:34 > 0:38:35Good heavens.
0:38:35 > 0:38:36Nice little thing.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38Where are we going next?
0:38:38 > 0:38:40Next we have the football.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43The age actually is really important
0:38:43 > 0:38:46because that dictates how rare it is.
0:38:46 > 0:38:50If this was pre-1920s, '30s, this could be quite special.
0:38:50 > 0:38:55It's an early piece, they don't come up very often in that condition.
0:38:56 > 0:38:58£650.
0:38:58 > 0:38:59- Oh.- Really?
0:38:59 > 0:39:03What's the last thing we are looking at?
0:39:03 > 0:39:06The last thing we are looking at is the axe.
0:39:06 > 0:39:11It's 17th century, it's a Saxon miner's axe
0:39:11 > 0:39:15but used mostly for ceremonial purposes in that form.
0:39:15 > 0:39:18Highly decorative, very rare,
0:39:18 > 0:39:21with a mighty price tag
0:39:21 > 0:39:23of £1,200.
0:39:23 > 0:39:24Whoa!
0:39:24 > 0:39:26But those lots have all gone,
0:39:26 > 0:39:29so Sarah and Cherry, come and join me to take a closer look
0:39:29 > 0:39:32at your diamond brooch and see if we can tempt you
0:39:32 > 0:39:35with our mystery lot, which may be worth even more.
0:39:38 > 0:39:42Well, you may be confident that your choice is worth a small fortune,
0:39:42 > 0:39:44but before we tell you its value
0:39:44 > 0:39:48we are going to tempt you with today's mystery lot.
0:39:48 > 0:39:51Kate is going to reveal and tell all.
0:39:51 > 0:39:52Here we go.
0:39:53 > 0:40:01This is the Nuremberg Lady, or Princess, toy sewing machine.
0:40:01 > 0:40:05Toy is actually a bit misleading because this machine
0:40:05 > 0:40:06falls somewhere between the two.
0:40:06 > 0:40:10It was marketed originally in 1894
0:40:10 > 0:40:13as the best present for a girl.
0:40:14 > 0:40:19It was also a perfect chain stitch sewing machine in miniature,
0:40:19 > 0:40:24producing just as good sewing as a full-size machine.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28It's made of cast iron and has been found in the past painted
0:40:28 > 0:40:32both in pink and blue, and it's probably the most desirable
0:40:32 > 0:40:38toy sewing machine ever made and is extremely rare.
0:40:38 > 0:40:40- Interesting.- Interesting, yes.
0:40:40 > 0:40:44Sarah and Cherry, all that's left to decide is which one to go for.
0:40:44 > 0:40:48Do you stick with your diamond brooch
0:40:48 > 0:40:50or do you just dump it in favour of the sewing machine?
0:40:50 > 0:40:54- I don't know. - I like the diamonds.
0:40:55 > 0:40:57She's not as pretty as the diamonds.
0:40:57 > 0:41:01- She's quite rare, though. - A child's toy, though.
0:41:01 > 0:41:03- Sewing machine.- I don't know.
0:41:03 > 0:41:08- I think we'll stick with our diamonds.- The diamonds.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10So you're going with the diamond brooch.
0:41:10 > 0:41:15That means you have won its worth in cold, hard cash.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17But Kate, first of all,
0:41:17 > 0:41:19please would you tell us what they have thrown away?
0:41:19 > 0:41:22The Nuremberg, as the name implies,
0:41:22 > 0:41:27is a German manufacturer's Princess sewing machine.
0:41:27 > 0:41:32The manufacturer was Steinfeldt and Blasberg, based in Hanover.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36But I did say right at the beginning of the show, one of the things
0:41:36 > 0:41:38to think about was rarity
0:41:38 > 0:41:43and only a very few of these are known to exist.
0:41:43 > 0:41:46That gives it a value...
0:41:47 > 0:41:51..of £3,500!
0:41:51 > 0:41:53Oh, my goodness!
0:41:53 > 0:41:55It's a super thing.
0:41:55 > 0:41:56- It's lovely.- Yeah.
0:41:56 > 0:42:01So, Kate, please tell us the value of the lot that they have chosen,
0:42:01 > 0:42:03this beautiful diamond brooch.
0:42:03 > 0:42:07You went with your gut feelings and what is not to love about it?
0:42:07 > 0:42:10Total weight of five carats in diamonds,
0:42:10 > 0:42:13but you did worry about the fact that it wasn't signed,
0:42:13 > 0:42:16it didn't have a maker's name attached to it.
0:42:16 > 0:42:20The hammer price today would be...
