0:00:15 > 0:00:17Hello and welcome to For What It's Worth,
0:00:17 > 0:00:21where winning means knowing a lot, and knowing your lots.
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Get the answers right and pick the best antiques,
0:00:24 > 0:00:27and you could be going home with a top cash prize.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30Three pairs of contestants are ready to play.
0:00:30 > 0:00:34In each team is a quizzer, responsible for answering
0:00:34 > 0:00:37general knowledge questions, so that their partner, the picker,
0:00:37 > 0:00:40can choose an antique item to add to their collection.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44The aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection.
0:00:44 > 0:00:47So here are today's lots for your consideration.
0:00:47 > 0:00:5016 different antiques and collectables.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52We have a sled,
0:00:52 > 0:00:54a sovereign case,
0:00:54 > 0:00:57a mascot, a vase,
0:00:57 > 0:00:58a sewing machine,
0:00:58 > 0:00:59a stamp box,
0:00:59 > 0:01:02a painting, a plate,
0:01:02 > 0:01:03an orrery,
0:01:03 > 0:01:05shells,
0:01:05 > 0:01:07a toy, a taperstick,
0:01:07 > 0:01:09a barrel screw,
0:01:09 > 0:01:11scent bottles,
0:01:11 > 0:01:14a ball, and embroidered postcards.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17All very different, with very different values.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20One is worthless, worth £10 or less, and the rest increase
0:01:20 > 0:01:26in value up to our top lot, which is worth a whopping £2,500.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Now, that is the lot to spot, because at the end of the show,
0:01:29 > 0:01:32the winning pair will walk away with the cash equivalent
0:01:32 > 0:01:34of one of these items.
0:01:34 > 0:01:38So, first up we have Nick and Mike from Southampton,
0:01:38 > 0:01:41who are very good friends. Lovely to meet you, gentlemen.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Nick, you are the team's picker.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Oh, it is a vast antiques world,
0:01:46 > 0:01:50but what do you look for when rooting for antiques and collectables?
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Well, I really look for things in my own particular field.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Georgian silver. And furniture, Regency furniture.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Mike, you are the questions person on this team.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02What do you do together as friends?
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Our wives used to work together, so we are the other halves,
0:02:06 > 0:02:08the insignificant other halves.
0:02:08 > 0:02:13We go out for meals together, enjoying good food and wine.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17Oh, how lovely. You've got the life, you gentlemen. Welcome to the show.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Now, next we have Johnny
0:02:19 > 0:02:23and Steph from Lutterworth in Leicestershire, who are married.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Welcome to you both.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Johnny, you will be picking the antiques for your team.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29How did you and Steph meet, though?
0:02:29 > 0:02:32We met at school for the first time.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34I managed to get detention for asking her on a date,
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- apparently, as I've been reminded. - You did, you did.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40- You remember this clearly? Tell me the story.- We were in science class.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43I was handing out the books, and he said, you know,
0:02:43 > 0:02:45would I perhaps fancy going to a football match, actually.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48He got detention for talking in class.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50I waited for him outside and said, yes, I would go with him,
0:02:50 > 0:02:52and we've been together ever since.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Well, welcome to the show. Lovely to have you here.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58And our final team is Anne and Karen,
0:02:58 > 0:03:01who are cousins-in-law from Devon.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04And Middlesex. So, Anne, you are the picker for the team.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Who's who when it comes to cousins-in-law?
0:03:07 > 0:03:09I'm actually married to Karen's cousin.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12So rather than sisters-in-law, we are cousins-in-law.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16- That's interesting. So, when you met Karen's cousin...- Yes.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18..did you know Karen?
0:03:18 > 0:03:21- No.- So she came as the package?- Yes.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25- We actually met for the first time at her son's christening.- Yeah.
0:03:25 > 0:03:29Karen, you're the team's quizzer. What makes you and Anne such good friends?
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Well, we hit it off straight away.
0:03:31 > 0:03:35We've got a love of shopping, car-boot sales, shoes,
0:03:35 > 0:03:37handbags, you know, the important things in life.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- Sharing a glass of wine?- That has been known, it has been known.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Well, we are very pleased to welcome you to the show as well.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Now, earlier, our teams inspected the lots,
0:03:46 > 0:03:48but could they separate gems from the junk?
0:03:50 > 0:03:54- Where should we start? - Oh, I don't know.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55Right.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Which one first? The embroidered postcards.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00This looks like First World War.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03- It's the Royal-coated one.- It is.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Very nice. Just the sort of thing I always wanted as a kid.
0:04:09 > 0:04:13- Early 1900s. Probably 1950s.- Yeah.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Looks like the Lake District.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Welsh, Welsh border scene.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21That would be the River Severn, wouldn't it, if that's Tintern Abbey?
0:04:21 > 0:04:24(I want to pick it up, but I don't want to break it.)
0:04:24 > 0:04:26A lot of work has gone into those shells.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28If you look at the level of detail in there.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31You're not going to get another pair of them, are you?
0:04:31 > 0:04:33What's that in there? It must have had something in there.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36I'm just wondering what the date is on that.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38I don't know about that there.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- There is a maker's name on there, which could make it valuable.- WC.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Do you reckon that is a C or a G?
0:04:46 > 0:04:51- Er, a toy.- Oh.- This is probably Japanese.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54It doesn't look particularly collectable, I don't know.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Is that a charger plate? See, I like these.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Having the blue and white, it could be something Delft. Could be Dutch.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07A little vase. It is a Martinware thing.
0:05:07 > 0:05:12It looks like something I brought back from my holiday.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13The stamp box.
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Is it Russian?- It might be Turkish or something, you know.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19That's really pretty.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- I don't even know what that says. Do you?- Orrery.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Oh, it is planets, isn't it?
0:05:27 > 0:05:30Damaged there, but I do like that.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- That is your sort of thing.- I was going to say, I love sewing machines.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37What every woman should have at home.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39I know two women that wouldn't be very happy with that.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41HE LAUGHS
0:05:41 > 0:05:43More like a hammer. It's Marseille.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47It would have been for wine rather than whisky.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Lovely, like his moustache.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Bruce Bairnsfather.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55It's not leather is it? I don't know what that is.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Squash ball, cricket ball. - Could be squash.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01- It could be worth a bit. - Lovely.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04- I was thinking Lalique, but I don't think it is.- It is not Lalique.
0:06:04 > 0:06:09- They look like they've had something written on them.- "VW, 239."
0:06:09 > 0:06:14- The mascot.- The mascot, yes.- Shells. - The shells, and this charger.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18- And the worthless item... Possibly for now, going for the toy?- Yeah.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Postcards, the shells, and the...what we think is a golf ball.
0:06:22 > 0:06:27- Our worthless item, then.- We will go with the scent bottles. Shells.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29- Plate.- You are going for the plate.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32- I'm going to go for the scent bottle.- Worthless item?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34- Barrel screw.- That's nice.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36I do quite like that.
0:06:38 > 0:06:41Joining me is our resident antiques expert, David Harper.
0:06:41 > 0:06:46- David, what do you make of those lots?- My goodness me, what a collection.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48There are some serious antiques there,
0:06:48 > 0:06:50but there are also really fun things.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54And this business, actually, is about handling beautiful things
0:06:54 > 0:06:58- and having fun doing it.- How do you put the valuation on these lots?
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Well, it is me and an independent valuer.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05We sit down, we look at the objects and we decide what we feel
0:07:05 > 0:07:08they would make in auction, so a hammer price.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11But it doesn't include the auction fees.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14Well, as well as these lovely little treasures,
0:07:14 > 0:07:18we have our mystery lot, hidden under the shroud of mystery, which is
0:07:18 > 0:07:22poised to be uncovered at the end of the show to tempt our winners.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26It could be valuable or valueless, we'll be unveiling it later.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28But for now, it is time for round one.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I'm going to ask ten general knowledge questions.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37Quizzers, if you buzz in with a correct answer,
0:07:37 > 0:07:41your picker gets to add a lot to your collection. But beware,
0:07:41 > 0:07:45buzz in incorrectly, and you will be frozen out of the next question.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49Fingers on buzzers, here comes question number one.
0:07:49 > 0:07:53What is the name of the main human character in Richard Kipling's
0:07:53 > 0:07:55the Jungle Book?
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Yes, Karen.- Mowgli.- That is correct.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- And, Anne, you get your first choice of the grid.- Oh, wow.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05I really, really like the shells.
0:08:05 > 0:08:10The shells are coming to your collection. Question two.
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Which Welsh football team was the first to
0:08:13 > 0:08:16play in the English Premier League?
0:08:16 > 0:08:18- Yes, Mike.- Cardiff.- Incorrect.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21It was Swansea City. You're frozen out of the next question.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23Question three.
0:08:23 > 0:08:28Which iconic actor is best known for his role in Rebel Without A Cause?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Oh.
0:08:31 > 0:08:36Time up. It is James Dean. Mike and Nick, you are back in play.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Question four.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40What is an ossicle an example of?
0:08:44 > 0:08:48- Time out. It is a bone. - I knew that, I should have answered.
0:08:48 > 0:08:53Question five. Which mountain range separates Spain and France?
0:08:53 > 0:08:58- Yes, Mike.- Pyrenees.- It is the Pyrenees. Nick, your chance to pick.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02It may not be the most valuable, but the bit we liked best of all are the cards.
0:09:02 > 0:09:07The embroidered postcards. They are yours. Question six.
0:09:07 > 0:09:12In chemistry, what is the opposite of an exothermic reaction?
0:09:14 > 0:09:16- Yes, Mike.- Isothermic reaction.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18Incorrect. It is endothermic.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22You are frozen out of the next question. Question seven.
0:09:22 > 0:09:28Which US girl group had a UK hit single with Waterfalls?
0:09:28 > 0:09:29Yes, Steph.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32- TLC.- Correct. Johnny, your pick?
0:09:32 > 0:09:36Could I have the mascot, please?
0:09:36 > 0:09:39The mascot. It is yours. And it starts off your collection.
0:09:39 > 0:09:40Question eight.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44In 1928, who became the first female pilot to fly
0:09:44 > 0:09:47solo across the Atlantic Ocean?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51- Yes, Karen.- Was it Amelia Earhart?
0:09:51 > 0:09:54It was Amelia Earhart. Correct.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Anne, your choice.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Well, Karen really liked the plates,
0:09:58 > 0:10:00so I would like to put the plate in, please?
0:10:00 > 0:10:03The plate is going to your collection.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Question number nine.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Schezuan cuisine originate from which country?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- Yes, Steph.- China.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15It is China, correct. Johnny, what would you like?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Could I have the sovereign case, please?
0:10:18 > 0:10:20The sovereign case is yours.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23Final question, question ten.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27The TV series Torchwood is a spin-off...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29- Yes, Mike.- Doctor Who. - It is Doctor Who.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31The whole question is,
0:10:31 > 0:10:35the TV series Torchwood is a spin-off from which other BBC drama series?
0:10:35 > 0:10:38And it is Doctor Who, well done. Nick, what would you like?
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Well, I'm always attracted by silver,
0:10:41 > 0:10:43and I'd like the taperstick.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47The taperstick is now in your collection.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50Let's see where we stand at the end of round one.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Mike and Nick, you have the embroidered postcards
0:10:53 > 0:10:55and the taperstick.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59Steph and Johnny, you have the mascot and the sovereign case.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03Karen and Anne, you have the shells and the plates.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05So it is very even-stevens.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Our teams have started to build their collections,
0:11:07 > 0:11:09but before they have the chance to add to them
0:11:09 > 0:11:14David is going to give you each a fact about a lot of your choice.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Now, these snippets of information should give you vital
0:11:17 > 0:11:21clues about what it's worth. So, choose wisely.
0:11:21 > 0:11:26You can choose one of yours, one of theirs or something from the grid.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30So, let's start with Nick. What lot would you like to know about?
0:11:30 > 0:11:33- We are intrigued by the ball. - The ball.
0:11:33 > 0:11:38This is a fives ball. Sometimes called Eton fives,
0:11:38 > 0:11:42a game played with a padded glove in a court similar to squash.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45However, because it's about the size of a golf ball,
0:11:45 > 0:11:50and looks quite similar, the two are often confused.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54The key difference is that with this ball, the stitching
0:11:54 > 0:11:59is on the outside, and on a golf ball it wouldn't be visible.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03There's a particular golf ball called a feathery,
0:12:03 > 0:12:06which can be worth thousands.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09So if an early golf ball can be worth thousands,
0:12:09 > 0:12:12what's an early fives ball worth?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14OK.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Johnny, what would you like to know more about?
0:12:16 > 0:12:20I'm intrigued by the vase, please.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23The Martin brothers were London based pottery manufacturers,
0:12:23 > 0:12:27who are now considered to represent the transition from decorative
0:12:27 > 0:12:32Victorian ceramics to the 20th-century studio pottery.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36They have been unfashionable for many years,
0:12:36 > 0:12:39but are now beginning to get a serious following.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43They famously crafted a series of grotesque birds.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47One was recently sold for an eye-watering
0:12:47 > 0:12:51£94,800.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56But they also had terrible trouble with their firing process
0:12:56 > 0:13:01and often, smaller pieces looked very rough and are cracked as a result.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04- This is one of them.- Hm.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Johnny, has that helped at all?
0:13:06 > 0:13:10- Still intrigued, I think.- Anne, what would you like to know about?
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I'd like to know about the orrery.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16This is an Elton's miniature transparent orrery
0:13:16 > 0:13:19from 1817.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22An orrery is basically a map of the solar system,
0:13:22 > 0:13:26and in this one, the astronomical scroll chart turns to reveal
0:13:26 > 0:13:30eight different-coloured diagrams of the moon phases,
0:13:30 > 0:13:36the solar system, eclipses and other planetary systems.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39It's all encased in a glazed mahogany box,
0:13:39 > 0:13:43and cost 15 shillings when it was new.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47But how much does it cost now?
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Well, now that you are all a bit more knowledgeable about today's lots,
0:13:50 > 0:13:54let's give you the chance to add more of them to your collections.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Bear in mind that at the end of this round,
0:13:56 > 0:14:00the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06Three more lots are now available to each pair,
0:14:06 > 0:14:09and this time, pickers, you target a lot,
0:14:09 > 0:14:14and quizzers, you then try and secure it by answering a question correctly.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18But in this round, the lots come with their own question categories.
0:14:18 > 0:14:19And here they are.
0:14:20 > 0:14:25So, for example, if you targeted the vase, your quizzer would be offered
0:14:25 > 0:14:30the chance to answer a question about fruit and veg or autobiographies.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34Nick and Mike, you are up first. So, Nick, what's your lot?
0:14:36 > 0:14:39- We are going for the ball. - You are going for the ball.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42So, Mike, you have to answer a question,
0:14:42 > 0:14:47- either about fashion or rugby union. - Rugby union, please.- Rugby union.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49Here's your question.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51The Harlequins rugby union team is based in which city?
0:14:51 > 0:14:53- London.- Correct.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56Nick, the ball is yours.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58And there it goes, into your collection.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01Johnny, what would you like?
0:15:01 > 0:15:06Based on David's vague advice, I'd like to go for the vase, please.
0:15:06 > 0:15:10The vase. Steph, autobiographies or fruit and veg?
0:15:10 > 0:15:14- I'll go fruit and veg, please. - Fruit and veg, here's your question.
0:15:14 > 0:15:19What spicy green herb, used in Japanese cookery, is similar to
0:15:19 > 0:15:21horseradish?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23I can only think of jalapeno chilli,
0:15:23 > 0:15:27- but I don't think that is right.- It isn't, I'm afraid. It's wasabi.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- Oh, yes!- Of course it is.
0:15:29 > 0:15:32OK, the vase stays on the grid.
0:15:32 > 0:15:36- Anne, what would you like?- I think I'm going to go for the vase.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38The vase.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41OK. Karen, autobiographies or fruit and veg?
0:15:41 > 0:15:44- I think it has got to be fruit and veg again.- OK. Fruit and veg.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Here's your question.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50By what woman's name is persimmon fruit also known?
0:15:50 > 0:15:51Sharon fruit.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53It is Sharon. Good.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Anne, the vas is yours.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58- Thank you.- And there it goes.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Mike and Nick again. Nick, what would you like?
0:16:00 > 0:16:03We're going to go for the orrery.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06- The Orrery.- Yes.- OK.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Mike, astronomy or Motown?
0:16:08 > 0:16:11- I'm going to have a punt at Motown, please.- Good.
0:16:11 > 0:16:16In which city was Hitsville, the headquarters of Motown?
0:16:16 > 0:16:17Detroit.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19It was Detroit, good.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23Nick, the orrery is yours.
0:16:24 > 0:16:26Johnny, what would you like?
0:16:26 > 0:16:28Can I go for the stamp box, please?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Steph, Tudors or languages?
0:16:33 > 0:16:34I did the Tudors at first school
0:16:34 > 0:16:37so I think I'm going to have to go for languages.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Here we go, languages.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41What is the German word for
0:16:41 > 0:16:45pleasure derived from someone else's misfortune.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48I only know danke schon.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51THEY ALL LAUGH
0:16:51 > 0:16:52Does that have to be your answer?
0:16:52 > 0:16:54- Yes!- Incorrect. I'm so sorry.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58It's that word that sometimes you read and don't know how to pronounce.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Schadenfreude.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02No, that would never have been on the tip of my tongue.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05That stays on the board. Anne, what would you like?
0:17:05 > 0:17:08I think we might go for the scent bottles.
0:17:08 > 0:17:09The scent bottles.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12OK, Karen, fashion or languages?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14I think it's going to have to be fashion.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Fashion.
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Which item of clothing, worn over the head and face,
0:17:19 > 0:17:21takes its name from a Black Sea port?
0:17:21 > 0:17:24The only thing I can think of is yashmak.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26LAUGHTER
0:17:26 > 0:17:28- I don't think that's right. - How about balaclava?
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- How about that? That's even better! - Incorrect.
0:17:31 > 0:17:35OK, the scent bottles stay on the board.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Now, remember at the end of this round,
0:17:37 > 0:17:40the pair with the least valuable collection will be leaving us,
0:17:40 > 0:17:45so, have you missed out on that one item that you really want?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47If so, here's your chance to secure it,
0:17:47 > 0:17:50because there's one last lot available to each team
0:17:50 > 0:17:54and this time you can either go for what's left on the grid,
0:17:54 > 0:17:58or you can try and steal an antique from a rival team's collection.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01However, pickers beware.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03If you choose to steal from another team,
0:18:03 > 0:18:07their quizzer will get to decide your quizzer's category.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09Just one rule here,
0:18:09 > 0:18:14you can't steal from a team who has just one lot in their collection. OK.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18Right, Nick, do you want to target a lot from the grid or have you
0:18:18 > 0:18:20got your eye on something in another collection?
0:18:20 > 0:18:23We're going to go for the toy.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Go for the toy.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27OK, here we are go.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30Mike, astronomy or rugby union?
0:18:30 > 0:18:33- I'll stay with rugby union. - Good. Here we go.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36The Pumas are the national team of which country?
0:18:36 > 0:18:38- Argentina.- Correct.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41The toy is yours, Nick.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44There it is in your collection.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47Johnny, do you want to take from the grid or pinch from someone else?
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Pinch the shells, please.
0:18:49 > 0:18:54Oh, the shells in Karen and Anne's collection, which means,
0:18:54 > 0:18:58Karen, you now choose any of the categories that you think
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Steph would find hardest to answer.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03This is really mean.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05All's fair in love and war. Rugby union.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Yeah, don't be that mean! OK.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Don't worry.- OK, she's good.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Steph, rugby union, here you go.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18What is the name of the chant performed at the opening
0:19:18 > 0:19:21of each match by the All Blacks rugby team?
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- The Haka.- Yes!- Well done.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Amazing. You won those shells.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29- They are coming into your collection right now.- Sorry.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Anne, are you going to pick from the grid or perhaps
0:19:31 > 0:19:34there's something you'd like to steal from somebody.
0:19:34 > 0:19:38- Embroidered postcards.- Oh!
0:19:38 > 0:19:40- That was a bit...- Sorry.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42..out of left field, wasn't it?
0:19:42 > 0:19:45OK, they belong to Mike and Nick, so Mike,
0:19:45 > 0:19:51please pick a category for Karen to have difficulty in answering.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Well, rugby union's been good to me.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56Let's hope it keeps our embroidered postcards where they are.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01OK, Karen, which player would normally take a line-out?
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Gosh, I only watch it because they are quite...
0:20:04 > 0:20:05good-looking.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07Um...
0:20:09 > 0:20:10A hooker.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Correct!
0:20:13 > 0:20:16- Yes!- Oh, my goodness.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18Mike is astonished.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21You can't believe she got that, but well done.
0:20:21 > 0:20:24The embroidered postcards are going into your collection.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Let's have a look where we are.
0:20:26 > 0:20:31Mike and Nick, you have the taperstick, the orrery, the ball,
0:20:31 > 0:20:33and you added the toy.
0:20:33 > 0:20:38Steph and Johnny, you have the mascot, the sovereign case
0:20:38 > 0:20:40and you stole the shells.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45Karen and Anne, you have the plate, the vase,
0:20:45 > 0:20:48and you stole the embroidered postcards.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Well, that is it for round two, and for one team,
0:20:51 > 0:20:52sadly, it's the end of the road.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55We've calculated the combined value of your items
0:20:55 > 0:20:58and the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated,
0:20:58 > 0:21:01taking their lots out of the game with them.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04So, David has been keeping tabs. David.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08Oh, my gosh, was that charged, or what?
0:21:08 > 0:21:14But, Fern, I can reveal that the first pair leaving today is...
0:21:18 > 0:21:19It's Ann and Karen.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22- Oh, what a shame! - Never mind.- Never mind.
0:21:22 > 0:21:26You've been so lovely and thank you very much. Very good quizzer
0:21:26 > 0:21:29and very good picker. But before you leave, of course,
0:21:29 > 0:21:32we want to find out the value of the lots you've got.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35So, David, what do you make of their collection?
0:21:35 > 0:21:40OK, pretty good collection. Now, the plate is an interesting one.
0:21:40 > 0:21:44This is a Chinese Kangxi period,
0:21:44 > 0:21:50so that dates it to 1661 to 1722.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53It is so delicious, it is unbelievable.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57It's called polychrome, so it's multicoloured, painted in the enamel
0:21:57 > 0:22:00and it's such a big size.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02My gosh.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Anne and Karen, that was really, really well chosen.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06Worth £700.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08- Wow!- Very good.
0:22:08 > 0:22:14We move on to this funny little vase, made by Martin Brothers.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17We've got that. And, Karen...
0:22:17 > 0:22:20you described it as a holiday tat...
0:22:20 > 0:22:21LAUGHTER
0:22:21 > 0:22:24..and now it's in your collection. What's all that about?
0:22:24 > 0:22:26She chose it, not me!
0:22:26 > 0:22:27LAUGHTER
0:22:27 > 0:22:31But it is Martin Brothers. We know that some of their pieces can make
0:22:31 > 0:22:34absolute fortunes, but this one, value-wise,
0:22:34 > 0:22:35£200.
0:22:35 > 0:22:41- Wow.- Finally, then we go to the embroidered postcards.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Interesting things. I think Mike and Nick, you fancied these?
0:22:45 > 0:22:46Yes, I did like it.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49The kind of things that were sent back, Fern, from the trenches,
0:22:49 > 0:22:50the 14-18 war.
0:22:50 > 0:22:53I mean, they're beautifully made, these things. I don't think the guys
0:22:53 > 0:22:56made them themselves, but they would buy them and post them back.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59It's a very emotional thing, isn't it?
0:22:59 > 0:23:02And anything from that period is highly collected.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05However, no fantastic value,
0:23:05 > 0:23:08because these things were made in abundance, so worth
0:23:08 > 0:23:11£150 only.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15But not a bad collection, you two, I think you did really well.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18A total amassed of £1,050.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22Anne and Karen, it has been a delight to have you.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26Thank you for so much, but it is time to bring the hammer down on your
0:23:26 > 0:23:30collection, I'm afraid. But thank you for playing For What It's Worth.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36- A little bit disappointed that we're out.- A little bit disappointed, yes.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40Yes. I think we maybe had our lot stolen from us, perhaps.
0:23:40 > 0:23:45- Yes, absolutely. I think the top lot is the shells.- I'm...
0:23:45 > 0:23:49I don't know, I think it might be that ball now, I'm a bit torn.
0:23:49 > 0:23:53- But we liked the shells.- We did. - We chose them first, so...- Yeah.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Yeah, we'll go with the shells.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02Now the unclaimed lots in the grid are also leaving the game.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05So let's quickly find out from David what they were worth
0:24:05 > 0:24:09and if the top lot is still in the game. Where are we starting, David?
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Well, let's start with the barrel screw.
0:24:11 > 0:24:16Now, teams, there is only one thing a Frenchman hates,
0:24:16 > 0:24:21and that a corked bottle. Now, Nick, what did you think of it?
0:24:22 > 0:24:24I thought it was quite intriguing.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26I actually liked the hammer on the end of it,
0:24:26 > 0:24:30so I'm assuming that if you've got the plug out of the barrel,
0:24:30 > 0:24:32you can put it back in with it.
0:24:32 > 0:24:34You could or, if you get really frustrated,
0:24:34 > 0:24:37you can beat the barrel up with the hammer, can't you? It's ideal, yes.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40So, that's what it is. It's a barrel screw, no great value,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43- £45.- Good.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46- We don't mind the £45 going, do we? - Exactly.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47A bit of a low value.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49- OK, what's the next lot? - The next one, OK.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53- This is an interesting bit of kitsch Americana.- I like it.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56This thing is American and dates to the 1950s
0:24:56 > 0:25:01and it's a firm founded in 1889, making sleds for kids.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05To say they're mass produced as a bit of an understatement,
0:25:05 > 0:25:07so its value, £65.
0:25:07 > 0:25:09Oh! Really?
0:25:09 > 0:25:13Next, OK, I thought these were really sweet and I thought
0:25:13 > 0:25:15somebody would be going crazy for them,
0:25:15 > 0:25:17but they are actually, in fact, Art Deco,
0:25:17 > 0:25:22so they're period Art Deco, dating into the 1920s and 1930s,
0:25:22 > 0:25:25and actually they don't have a bad value.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28- £125.- Gosh!
0:25:28 > 0:25:32- But they've gone.- Gone. OK, next up, nobody spotted where it is?
0:25:32 > 0:25:34- Tintern Abbey.- Yes!- Is it?
0:25:34 > 0:25:36- Yes!- Oh, my...
0:25:36 > 0:25:39You should be over there, Fern, honestly! How exciting!
0:25:39 > 0:25:42Well, it's painted by James Gresley.
0:25:42 > 0:25:46He was born in Derbyshire and spent a lot of time in Yorkshire.
0:25:46 > 0:25:50It's late 19th century. It used to be a very popular scene.
0:25:50 > 0:25:53Remember, 10 or 15 years ago these things were
0:25:53 > 0:25:55a lot of money. Everybody wanted them.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57It's really good quality
0:25:57 > 0:25:59but the prices have dropped quite dramatically,
0:25:59 > 0:26:01down to £400.
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Good heavens. Some of these things are bargains, aren't they?
0:26:05 > 0:26:07OK, there we go. Sewing machine. It's one of those objects.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10You know, it was an industrial thing,
0:26:10 > 0:26:13but it was made to look beautiful as well as functional.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15This one dates to about 1894,
0:26:15 > 0:26:18the White sewing machine. An American brand again.
0:26:18 > 0:26:22This is the days of the new American empire effectively.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Mass production and shipping these things all over the world,
0:26:25 > 0:26:27so you'd think it was going to be cheap,
0:26:27 > 0:26:32if it was mass-produced, but no, this thing's a bit of a corker.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34Value £900.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36- FERN GASPS - Ouch!
0:26:36 > 0:26:40Finally, nobody mentioned this little thing at all.
0:26:40 > 0:26:45Nick, I think you noted that it was from the east somewhere.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47Yes, I did wonder whether it was Russian
0:26:47 > 0:26:49but I couldn't see any Russian marks on it.
0:26:49 > 0:26:53If you'd had an eyeglass and some time and a little book
0:26:53 > 0:26:56with you, you'd be able to work out that they were Russian marks.
0:26:56 > 0:27:01- Oh, they were!- So it is a Russian silver and enamel stamp box,
0:27:01 > 0:27:03dating to the late 19th century.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06It's a gorgeous thing, That cloisonne decoration,
0:27:06 > 0:27:09which is incredibly intricate.
0:27:09 > 0:27:15Hallmarked Russian silver is very, very desirable.
0:27:16 > 0:27:20And I can also tell you that I would have a list as long as my arm
0:27:20 > 0:27:27of buyers who would clamber at my door to give me
0:27:27 > 0:27:29£2,500.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Oh! That was the top lot!
0:27:31 > 0:27:33The top lot.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35It's gone.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38- Well, Johnny, you did try to get it, didn't you?- I did.- Sorry.
0:27:38 > 0:27:42- But never mind, it's gone, that's it. - I'll forgive you, it's fine.- Thanks.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44Eventually.
0:27:44 > 0:27:48OK, so the top lot may have gone, but don't forget there's still
0:27:48 > 0:27:51plenty of interesting items still in play.
0:27:51 > 0:27:54But beware, as I'm sure you realise,
0:27:54 > 0:27:57the bottom lot is still lurking amongst your collections.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01So, just two pairs of contestants left
0:28:01 > 0:28:03and, before we go any further,
0:28:03 > 0:28:05David is going to give you another fact about
0:28:05 > 0:28:10a lot of your choice, so, Nick, what lot do you need to know more about?
0:28:10 > 0:28:14I think we need to know about the mascot.
0:28:14 > 0:28:18The mascot in Steph and Johnny's collection.
0:28:18 > 0:28:22Nick and Mike, this is a car mascot in bronze,
0:28:22 > 0:28:25made in the early part of the 20th century
0:28:25 > 0:28:28by a chap called Bruce Bairnsfather.
0:28:28 > 0:28:33It's modelled on a popular cartoon character, Old Bill.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35People used to collect these things and put them on
0:28:35 > 0:28:40their car radiators, and all the major car manufacturers made them.
0:28:40 > 0:28:44Johnny, what have you got your eye on to know more about?
0:28:44 > 0:28:50- Could I have more information on the shells, please?- David, the shells?
0:28:50 > 0:28:53Mm, this large pair of Chinese mother-of-pearl
0:28:53 > 0:28:58carved shells from Canton were produced in the 19th century.
0:28:58 > 0:29:04Each intricately decorated to the inner surface with garden scenes.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Also carved are the hardwood stands.
0:29:07 > 0:29:09But what is it worth?
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Those are all the facts available to you,
0:29:11 > 0:29:14so it's now time for our final round.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20I'm going to give the quizzers a category, then they take turns
0:29:20 > 0:29:25to say answers in that category. For example, if I say Phobias,
0:29:25 > 0:29:30you might say arachnophobia, then you might say claustrophobia, and so on.
0:29:30 > 0:29:34If you fail to give an answer, or if you repeat an answer,
0:29:34 > 0:29:37or give a wrong answer, you lose that category and the opponent's
0:29:37 > 0:29:41picker will be able to steal a lot from your collection.
0:29:41 > 0:29:42There are three categories,
0:29:42 > 0:29:46the pair with the most valuable collection at this point go first.
0:29:46 > 0:29:47David, who is that?
0:29:47 > 0:29:51OK, I can reveal that the team who currently has
0:29:51 > 0:29:53the most valuable collection is...
0:29:55 > 0:29:56..Johnny and Steph.
0:29:56 > 0:30:01OK, Steph, you will start us off, and the first category is...
0:30:02 > 0:30:06Animated characters that appear in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
0:30:06 > 0:30:09Steph, you're first, would you give me an answer, please?
0:30:09 > 0:30:11Bugs Bunny.
0:30:11 > 0:30:12Correct.
0:30:12 > 0:30:13Mike.
0:30:13 > 0:30:16Sylvester the cat.
0:30:16 > 0:30:17Correct.
0:30:17 > 0:30:19Steph.
0:30:19 > 0:30:20Tweetie Pie.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22Correct.
0:30:22 > 0:30:24Mike.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26Huckleberry Hound.
0:30:26 > 0:30:30Mike, that's incorrect. He's not in the film.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33You could have had Betty Boop,
0:30:33 > 0:30:38Dumbo, Goofy, Roadrunner.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43Johnny, prepare to steal something from Nick and Mike's collection.
0:30:43 > 0:30:44What would you like?
0:30:44 > 0:30:48Could I take the ball, please?
0:30:48 > 0:30:51- It's yours.- Thank you.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Mike, you go first on this one, and your category is...
0:30:56 > 0:30:58English Counties.
0:30:58 > 0:31:03We're looking for any of the 48 current ceremonial counties of England.
0:31:03 > 0:31:04Mike, may I have an answer?
0:31:04 > 0:31:07Hampshire.
0:31:07 > 0:31:08Correct. Steph?
0:31:08 > 0:31:09Shropshire.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11Correct. Mike?
0:31:11 > 0:31:13Wiltshire.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15Correct. Steph?
0:31:15 > 0:31:16Hampshire.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19- I'm afraid that's repeated.- Oh, no.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23Mike said it earlier. It is correct, but unfortunately a repeat.
0:31:23 > 0:31:29You could have had Devon, Cornwall, Oxfordshire, Kent, Surrey.
0:31:29 > 0:31:33So, Nick, you can steal from Johnny and Steph.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36- What would you like?- The mascot.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39- The mascot. It's yours.- Yes.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42There it goes. Third and final category.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45Here we go. Steph to answer first.
0:31:45 > 0:31:53It is BBC Sports Personality Of The Year from 1952 to 2014.
0:31:53 > 0:31:54Steph, may have an answer?
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Andy Murray.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58Correct. Mike?
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Steve Redgrave.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Correct. Steph?
0:32:02 > 0:32:04Tanni Grey-Thompson.
0:32:04 > 0:32:07Steph, I'm sorry, we can't except that
0:32:07 > 0:32:12- because Tanni Grey-Thompson did not win, but she was nominated.- Oh.
0:32:12 > 0:32:16And you could've had Sir Bradley Wiggins, Dame Kelly Holmes,
0:32:16 > 0:32:20Lord Sebastian Coe and Jonny Wilkinson.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23So, Nick...
0:32:23 > 0:32:26Are you ready to steal from Johnny and Steph?
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Can we have our ball back, please?
0:32:28 > 0:32:30LAUGHTER
0:32:30 > 0:32:34You may have your ball back. That is the end of that round.
0:32:34 > 0:32:36Let's see where you stand.
0:32:36 > 0:32:41Mike and Nick, you have the taperstick, the orrery, the toy,
0:32:41 > 0:32:46you stole the mascot and you've got your ball back.
0:32:46 > 0:32:50Steph and Johnny, you have the sovereign case and the shells.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54That's it, your collections are now fixed
0:32:54 > 0:32:56and will determine which team is victorious.
0:32:56 > 0:32:59It's time to find out who are today's winners.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01David, who's got the most valuable collection?
0:33:01 > 0:33:04My gosh, that was a game and a half.
0:33:04 > 0:33:08But, Fern, I can reveal that the team with the most valuable
0:33:08 > 0:33:12collection, and the winners of today's show are...
0:33:14 > 0:33:15You're not going to believe it,
0:33:15 > 0:33:17it's Johnny and Steph.
0:33:17 > 0:33:19- Whoa!- No way!
0:33:19 > 0:33:21- Congratulations!- Thank you.
0:33:21 > 0:33:25Quality not quantity. Well!
0:33:25 > 0:33:31Commiserations to Nick and Mike, who've played this game so well,
0:33:31 > 0:33:34but somehow you didn't create a valuable enough collection.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37So before we say goodbye,
0:33:37 > 0:33:42let's find out what items are also leaving the game.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45- David, what did you make of the mascot?- I loved the car mascot.
0:33:45 > 0:33:50You know, early 20th century car mascots are just such good news.
0:33:50 > 0:33:51You guys loved him.
0:33:51 > 0:33:55He's worth £220. So, well chosen.
0:33:55 > 0:33:58Next, chaps, we had the toy.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Nobody really showed any interest in this thing but, you know,
0:34:01 > 0:34:04it's got an awful lot of good points.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07It's got its original box, but our little boyo here from Japan,
0:34:07 > 0:34:09circa 1950s,
0:34:09 > 0:34:11was worth £300.
0:34:11 > 0:34:13- No way!- Good heavens.- What's next?
0:34:13 > 0:34:16And then we move on to the orrery.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18It's very early 19th century, isn't it, in its decoration?
0:34:18 > 0:34:22Very ahead of its time. Very modern.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24It's like a laptop of the early 19th century.
0:34:24 > 0:34:27Worth a staggering £500.
0:34:27 > 0:34:30- Good heavens.- Very good.
0:34:30 > 0:34:34Next, all individual pieces of silver must carry a hallmark.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37This thing is mid-1700s.
0:34:37 > 0:34:41It's so old that the hallmarks could very easily have been worn off,
0:34:41 > 0:34:44but there's a lovely mark on the base
0:34:44 > 0:34:46and there's a leopard's head looking right at you.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49It is a taperstick, not quite a candlestick.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53It is the kind of thing that would hold a wax taper,
0:34:53 > 0:34:56but these things were mainly made as singles.
0:34:56 > 0:35:00A cracking thing, a Georgian period piece. Well chosen.
0:35:00 > 0:35:04- £600.- Wow.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06And finally,
0:35:06 > 0:35:11this ball has not seen as much action in the last 100 years.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14Batted from one side to the other.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16A golf ball of this period,
0:35:16 > 0:35:2019th century, a feathery ball in good order can be worth
0:35:20 > 0:35:23a couple of thousand quid quite easily.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26We know this comes from a different game, it's a fives ball.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28It's of the same period,
0:35:28 > 0:35:31but how many people do you know play fives ball?
0:35:31 > 0:35:34So, what's it worth?
0:35:34 > 0:35:37You're going to be absolutely blown away.
0:35:37 > 0:35:39Do you know what it is?
0:35:39 > 0:35:41- It's completely worthless!- Oh!
0:35:41 > 0:35:43And you all wanted it desperately.
0:35:45 > 0:35:47I thought it was a chestnut!
0:35:47 > 0:35:49It might as well be, mightn't it?
0:35:49 > 0:35:52But, really, a very good collection.
0:35:52 > 0:35:59Lots of interesting things and a total amount amassed of £1,620.
0:35:59 > 0:36:02- Well done. - Well, we see it so often in the game,
0:36:02 > 0:36:05the bigger collection doesn't always mean the bigger value.
0:36:05 > 0:36:09So, it is time to bring the hammer down on your collection,
0:36:09 > 0:36:13I'm afraid, but thank you so much for playing For What It's Worth.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18- We were robbed, weren't we? - We were sunk by a ball.- Robbed.
0:36:18 > 0:36:22Yes, yes the decision to bring the ball back into our court
0:36:22 > 0:36:26was the wrong one at the end of the day, but...
0:36:26 > 0:36:28it was all about a ball.
0:36:30 > 0:36:32Well done, Johnny and Steph.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35You built the most valuable collection and you are today's
0:36:35 > 0:36:39winners and now all that remains is for you to claim your prize.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42All you have to do is pick a lot from your collection of two
0:36:42 > 0:36:45and we will give you its value in cash.
0:36:45 > 0:36:50Now, as we know, the top lot has gone from the game,
0:36:50 > 0:36:52and, happily, so has the bottom lot.
0:36:52 > 0:36:57However, there are still two very interesting items in your collection.
0:36:57 > 0:37:01So, try to pick the right one.
0:37:01 > 0:37:03I really like the shell, I love the stand as well as the shell.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05I was initially drawn to the shells.
0:37:05 > 0:37:08That was the first thing that I was really drawn to in the room.
0:37:08 > 0:37:12I think sovereign cases, I have seen them before.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15- I didn't think they had a massive value.- I think we like the things we like.
0:37:15 > 0:37:19Well, I like the things that are quirky, something different and
0:37:19 > 0:37:21the shells are something you don't see everyday,
0:37:21 > 0:37:23so that's something that I...
0:37:23 > 0:37:26- They took our attention straight away, didn't they?- Yeah. Definitely.
0:37:26 > 0:37:28I think we're agreed.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30So, tell me, what are you going to go for?
0:37:30 > 0:37:32We're going to go for the shells, please?
0:37:32 > 0:37:36You have chosen the shells, but before we tell you what it's worth,
0:37:36 > 0:37:40David, please can you tell us the value of the sovereign case?
0:37:40 > 0:37:42OK, OK, interesting, this one.
0:37:42 > 0:37:48So, this was made in 1880, made by a company called Sampson Mordan.
0:37:48 > 0:37:52Have you heard of Sampson Mordan? Yes. You're nodding there, Johnny.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56High-quality silver novelty makers.
0:37:56 > 0:38:00In scrap value I'm guessing that's worth £20 or £30,
0:38:00 > 0:38:03but it's so interesting, so novelty, in the form of a bullet.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06It's actually very, very rare,
0:38:06 > 0:38:10and because of that it is worth
0:38:10 > 0:38:12- a staggering £1,000.- Gosh.
0:38:12 > 0:38:14Good heavens!
0:38:14 > 0:38:18But that has been rejected, so, Johnny and Steph,
0:38:18 > 0:38:20would you like to come and join me now
0:38:20 > 0:38:22to take a closer look at your shells,
0:38:22 > 0:38:27and see if we can tempt you with our mystery lot, which may be worth more.
0:38:29 > 0:38:30Johnny and Steph,
0:38:30 > 0:38:33you may be confident that you have a lot of great worth,
0:38:33 > 0:38:35but before we tell you its value,
0:38:35 > 0:38:39we are going to tempt you with our mystery lot.
0:38:39 > 0:38:43- David, would you please tell me what that is?- I certainly will.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46- Are you ready, you two?- Yes.- OK. Feast your eyes.
0:38:47 > 0:38:51These coconut cups are found in places like Germany,
0:38:51 > 0:38:53the Netherlands and England.
0:38:53 > 0:38:58But while German and Dutch coconut cups are richly carved,
0:38:58 > 0:39:02English cups remain smooth.
0:39:03 > 0:39:07These drinking vessels start turning up in English customs documents,
0:39:07 > 0:39:11wills and inventories from the 13th century onwards,
0:39:11 > 0:39:17so they're not rare, but certainly an English peculiarity.
0:39:17 > 0:39:23This one is Georgian, dating to 1720,
0:39:23 > 0:39:28and it's engraved with the initials TAB,
0:39:28 > 0:39:31presumably the original owner.
0:39:31 > 0:39:33Is it worth a lot of money?
0:39:33 > 0:39:34It's over to you.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Have a slurp.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Carefully. Be careful.
0:39:38 > 0:39:41- Thank you.- There you go.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45I just wondered if the engraving would devalue it at all,
0:39:45 > 0:39:48because obviously if somebody wanted to give it as a present,
0:39:48 > 0:39:51it wouldn't... unless you got those initials.
0:39:51 > 0:39:53- Possibly, possibly.- It is silver.
0:39:53 > 0:39:56- I mean, I like it, but... - Not really for me.- No.
0:39:56 > 0:39:58It's not the kind of thing that I'd have in our house.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02- No, we could put some pot pourri in there.- We could.
0:40:02 > 0:40:03I don't know how...
0:40:03 > 0:40:06I mean, it's quite rare. I've never seen anything quite like it,
0:40:06 > 0:40:09but I think, on balance, I think it's the shells that got us here.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12- And there's a pair of them.- Yes.
0:40:12 > 0:40:17So, on the whole, given the work and the detail within these,
0:40:17 > 0:40:20I think that's what I'm inclined to stick with.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23So all that's left is for you to decide
0:40:23 > 0:40:26whether to stick with these shells, which you've loved from the very
0:40:26 > 0:40:31beginning, or dump them in favour of today's mystery lot.
0:40:31 > 0:40:32What would you like to do?
0:40:32 > 0:40:35- Yes.- Let's stick with the shells, yes.- You're happy?
0:40:35 > 0:40:37- They are speaking to you, aren't they?- They are.
0:40:37 > 0:40:39Very good, so you're going to go with the shells.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43That means you have won their worth in cold hard cash.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46David, would you like to tell us the value of the lot they've rejected?
0:40:46 > 0:40:48OK.
0:40:48 > 0:40:53Why are we looking at an old coconut with a bit of silver mounted on it?
0:40:53 > 0:40:55You can go to the supermarket
0:40:55 > 0:40:58and buy yourself a coconut for £1, but of course,
0:40:58 > 0:41:03when this thing was made, it was so exotic it was unbelievable
0:41:03 > 0:41:08and obviously so highly prized, they went to that extent, and made it
0:41:08 > 0:41:14into the most delicious drinking cup I've seen in a very, very long time.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18- But crazy.- Crazy, and that's part of the reason why I love it.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20I thought you two would love it too.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22- Oh, no.- It's worth...
0:41:22 > 0:41:25- £160.- OK.
0:41:25 > 0:41:30So, David, please would you tell us
0:41:30 > 0:41:35the value of the shells that they have both loved from the beginning.
0:41:35 > 0:41:37What have they chosen and what's the value?
0:41:37 > 0:41:41We've got two shells, that were free,
0:41:41 > 0:41:43they were found by somebody,
0:41:43 > 0:41:48and then they were worked and they are pieces of wondrous art.
0:41:48 > 0:41:50The work, the talent,
0:41:50 > 0:41:54the skill that went into creating those things is immense.
0:41:54 > 0:42:00You mentioned that they are a pair - that is absolutely paramount.
0:42:00 > 0:42:04The stands themselves are delicious and, come on, they're Chinese.
0:42:04 > 0:42:0719th century, that's where the value is.
0:42:07 > 0:42:10The value of your chosen lot...
0:42:12 > 0:42:14It's four figures.
0:42:15 > 0:42:18It's £1,800.
0:42:18 > 0:42:21- Congratulations!- Yes! How fantastic.
0:42:21 > 0:42:25- Oh!- Oh, you don't half deserve it.
0:42:25 > 0:42:26It's ridiculous, isn't it?
0:42:26 > 0:42:28I've had such... I mean, I can't believe that.
0:42:28 > 0:42:32- Are you getting all teary?- Yes, it's ridiculous, isn't it?- Oh, darling!
0:42:32 > 0:42:35Listen, congratulations.
0:42:35 > 0:42:40Today Johnny and Steph are going home with £1,800.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Thank you.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44And thank you, David, for lending us all your expertise,
0:42:44 > 0:42:47all your tricks and red herrings. Dear me!
0:42:47 > 0:42:49I look forward to seeing you again next time, though.
0:42:49 > 0:42:52And, of course, we look forward to seeing you again next time
0:42:52 > 0:42:55when three more teams will be playing For What It's Worth.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57We'll see you, then. Goodbye.
0:42:57 > 0:42:59Congratulations.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03We feel amazing at the moment.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06It's a really nice feeling to choose something that we really liked
