0:00:15 > 0:00:18Hello and welcome to For What It's Worth.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21Now, if you know the meaning of tittle and you can separate

0:00:21 > 0:00:26the antique tat from the treasure, then this is the show for you.

0:00:26 > 0:00:28We have three pairs of contestants who are ready to play

0:00:28 > 0:00:30and in each team, there's a quizzer

0:00:30 > 0:00:33responsible for answering general knowledge questions

0:00:33 > 0:00:35so that their partner, the picker,

0:00:35 > 0:00:38can choose an antique item to add to their collection.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41The aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44Today's lots for your consideration

0:00:44 > 0:00:47are 16 different antiques and collectables.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49We have...

0:00:50 > 0:00:52A bowl...

0:00:52 > 0:00:54A bottle of beer...

0:00:54 > 0:00:56A baton...

0:00:56 > 0:00:57A clock...

0:00:57 > 0:00:59A statue...

0:00:59 > 0:01:01A sewing machine...

0:01:01 > 0:01:03A letter opener...

0:01:03 > 0:01:04A golf club...

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Stamps...

0:01:06 > 0:01:08A pipe...

0:01:08 > 0:01:10A model...

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Some screens...

0:01:12 > 0:01:14A tapestry...

0:01:14 > 0:01:16A shell...

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Spoons and forks...

0:01:18 > 0:01:21And a pair of vases.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24They are all very different with very different values.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27One is worthless, worth only £10 or less,

0:01:27 > 0:01:30and the rest increase in value to our top lot which is worth

0:01:30 > 0:01:32a whopping £2,500.

0:01:32 > 0:01:36That's the lot to spot, because at the end of the show, the winning

0:01:36 > 0:01:41pair will walk away with the cash equivalent of one of these items.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43First up we have David and Simon, who are friends.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46- They live in London and David, you are today's picker.- Yes.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50So, when did your interest in antiques and collectables really begin?

0:01:50 > 0:01:51Well, I grew up in the States

0:01:51 > 0:01:53and both my parents were avid collectors

0:01:53 > 0:01:57and so as kids we used to load in the car every weekend and go

0:01:57 > 0:02:00to flea markets, antique shops and I sort of learnt it from my parents.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03And sitting next to you is your friend Simon. Hello, Simon.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Simon is responsible for answering the questions today.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09So, are you feeling pressure?

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- I mean, has David giving you a bit of a pep talk?- He has.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14He's certainly given me a bit of a confidence boost.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16We were actually joking earlier

0:02:16 > 0:02:19that you sort of mentally prepare yourself for this kind of thing

0:02:19 > 0:02:22and you think of all the questions that could come your way,

0:02:22 > 0:02:25but then when you actually get in the situation in the hot seat,

0:02:25 > 0:02:27things start to sort of slip from your memory.

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Right, you'd better get these questions right then, Simon, you are under pressure.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Sitting next to you are Cathy and Margaret.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35They are aunt and niece from the Wirral.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37Welcome to the show, ladies.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Now, Margaret, you're going to be picking the antiques to target today,

0:02:40 > 0:02:45- so do you reckon you've got a nose for a bargain?- Yes.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48- I've found a few in my time. - Have you? What was the best one?

0:02:48 > 0:02:51We were in an auction house and my thing is ceramics, but I saw

0:02:51 > 0:02:54this clock and I thought, "Oh, I love that, I've got to have it."

0:02:54 > 0:02:58And I paid about £100 for it.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01Went home, researched it on the internet

0:03:01 > 0:03:05and found it was by a very well-known French maker.

0:03:05 > 0:03:11Anyway, I eventually sold it, well, quickly sold it, for £650.

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Oh, so your love for it... you're fickle.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15You loved it, "Oh, it's worth money, goodbye."

0:03:15 > 0:03:18Yeah, didn't love it that much! Love the money more.

0:03:18 > 0:03:19Yeah, well, fair enough.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21And Cathy, you are the quizzer.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25How would you describe your relationship with your aunt here, Cathy?

0:03:25 > 0:03:27THEY LAUGH

0:03:27 > 0:03:29Undescribable.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31THEY LAUGH

0:03:31 > 0:03:34I don't know, we're just...mad.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37We just talk all the time and just laugh.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40- Do you generally agree on most things?- Yeah.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42- Yeah, we do, yeah.- No!

0:03:42 > 0:03:44THEY LAUGH

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Uh-oh, it could be trouble.

0:03:46 > 0:03:50And finally, we have husband and wife team Brendan and Lynne

0:03:50 > 0:03:52from the West Midlands. Welcome.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Now, Brendan, you are the picker for your team.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57How long have you and Lynne been married?

0:03:57 > 0:04:02We've just celebrated 30 years and, erm...we actually met...

0:04:02 > 0:04:05at a New Year's party

0:04:05 > 0:04:09in 1978 going into 1979.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11How lovely. Lynne, that sounds marvellous.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Do you remember any of his chat-up lines?

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- "Come and have a look at my fossils" was one of them.- Yeah.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- Well, who could resist that? - Absolutely!

0:04:20 > 0:04:22It was a really good fossil collection.

0:04:22 > 0:04:23LAUGHTER

0:04:23 > 0:04:25It must have been!

0:04:25 > 0:04:28Lynne, you're going to be answering the questions for your team

0:04:28 > 0:04:31today, so are you feeling confident?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34I am only competitive when it comes to quizzes,

0:04:34 > 0:04:36so that's where my competitive streak comes out,

0:04:36 > 0:04:39so...I'm pretty confident, yes.

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Well, welcome, all three teams.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43We're looking forward to playing the game, so...

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Earlier our teams inspected the lots,

0:04:46 > 0:04:50but could they separate the lovely loot from the car boot?

0:04:52 > 0:04:54- Ooh.- Wow.

0:04:54 > 0:04:56Wow, ooh!

0:04:56 > 0:04:59OK, so where shall we start?

0:04:59 > 0:05:00I think it's from a school.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02It's like something I'd see in the physiotherapist's.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04I think it's ugly.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07You bought the tobacco and you got the pipes free.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09- Uh-oh.- Hmm.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12- That belonged to George Best. - SHE LAUGHS

0:05:13 > 0:05:15It looks like E Ward.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17So, not Singer that you'd expect.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20Although it's quite interesting, with their trademark look,

0:05:20 > 0:05:21it's a Staffordshire Knot.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25- What is this, a letter opener? - A letter opener, yeah.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26Cheap, plastic.

0:05:26 > 0:05:29- You wouldn't open any bills with that, would you?- No.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31- It's a bit over the top, isn't it, really? - HE LAUGHS

0:05:33 > 0:05:35Hey, a bottle of beer, it might be something we know about.

0:05:35 > 0:05:36Oh, the Royal Wedding.

0:05:36 > 0:05:40- Well, put it this way, if the coins and things from then aren't worth anything, then...- No.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44Spalding Gold Medal, it's a big sports company.

0:05:44 > 0:05:45They might even be American.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47- I'm with Mark Twain about golf.- OK.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49It's a good walk spoilt.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53Ansini, so... Italian?

0:05:53 > 0:05:56It has had cypress trees as well,

0:05:56 > 0:05:57so could this be something to do with Italy?

0:05:57 > 0:05:59Wife number one, wife number two, no!

0:06:01 > 0:06:041933. WA, Women's Artillery,

0:06:04 > 0:06:07I still haven't seen anything yet that I think, "Wow."

0:06:09 > 0:06:11This is one of these companies that put out like an annual issue

0:06:11 > 0:06:13and then people would buy them each year.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Do you think this looks Scandinavian to you?

0:06:15 > 0:06:17They have a real Scandi feel to me.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22I think it's mass produced. And the detail is really good.

0:06:22 > 0:06:23- I feel they're worthless!- Yeah.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29The Pharisee and the Publican. 1877.

0:06:29 > 0:06:32It's the kind of thing you'd imagine in a stately home.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36- That hideous clock. Tell me that's hideous.- You don't like the clock?

0:06:36 > 0:06:39There's no markings to the inside of the clock or anything.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41- It has a German feel, doesn't it?- Yeah.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44She's definitely young there.

0:06:44 > 0:06:46- It's the Queen?- Yeah.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48And they are fully perforated, aren't they?

0:06:48 > 0:06:50They're not perforated at the sides.

0:06:52 > 0:06:53What do you think? It's not very heavy!

0:06:53 > 0:06:56It's very lightweight, that's the only thing that worries me.

0:06:56 > 0:06:57I think it's silver plate.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01It's probably a famous statue. Someone made copies

0:07:01 > 0:07:03that people bought so they could have it in their home.

0:07:03 > 0:07:05For the Art Union of London, 1842.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Victorian ladies, if they were sat by the fire, they'd turn that

0:07:09 > 0:07:11so it didn't melt the make-up.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13Does the needlework look lighter to you?

0:07:13 > 0:07:16- So, what are you top three, do you think?- The two screens.

0:07:16 > 0:07:20- The bronze statue.- I think I'd go for the spoons.- The spoons.

0:07:20 > 0:07:24- Definitely the silver, definitely the bronze. And...- And you're going to go for the golf club.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26- The cutlery.- Cutlery.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28- Clock. And I'm going for the stamps. - OK.

0:07:28 > 0:07:29The least valuable...

0:07:29 > 0:07:32I would agree with you. The bottle of beer.

0:07:32 > 0:07:33The two vases.

0:07:33 > 0:07:34The commemorative beer.

0:07:34 > 0:07:35Go on! CATHY LAUGHS

0:07:36 > 0:07:40Joining me is our resident antiques expert Charles Hanson.

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Hello, Fern. Hello, all.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Oh, what did you think of their knowledge as they walked around the viewing room?

0:07:45 > 0:07:48Knowledge, I think I can see it growing already, quite organically.

0:07:48 > 0:07:52If I said to you, "Fern, what's an antique?" what would you say to me?

0:07:53 > 0:07:56I'd probably says something over 100 years.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Exactly, because you're the collectable,

0:07:58 > 0:08:00you get all evocative over that decade.

0:08:00 > 0:08:01You've got that certain style...

0:08:01 > 0:08:05- Are you saying I'm over 100?- Far from it, you look radiant as ever!

0:08:05 > 0:08:07That's better. THEY LAUGH

0:08:07 > 0:08:10Behind me are a really intriguing bunch of items.

0:08:10 > 0:08:15They do have years of experience. Are they evocative? Are they unique?

0:08:15 > 0:08:16Are they battered or bruised

0:08:16 > 0:08:20- or have they got that all-important pedigree?- Mmm-mmm!

0:08:20 > 0:08:22And as always, we need to know

0:08:22 > 0:08:25how you get to the valuation you've put on these things.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29That's so important, because value can be so subjective.

0:08:29 > 0:08:30What is it worth?

0:08:30 > 0:08:33Well, importantly, all the values for each lot have been

0:08:33 > 0:08:38agreed by an independent valuer based on hammer price.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42That's that mid-auction estimate, so we take it down the middle.

0:08:43 > 0:08:46OK. Well, as well as those little treasures,

0:08:46 > 0:08:50we have our mystery lot hidden under the shroud of mystery.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54Poised to be uncovered at the end of the show to tempt our winners,

0:08:54 > 0:08:56it could be priceless, it could be worth nothing at all,

0:08:56 > 0:08:58we're going to be unveiling it later.

0:08:58 > 0:09:01But for now, it is time for round one.

0:09:04 > 0:09:08OK, everybody, I'm going to ask you ten general knowledge questions.

0:09:33 > 0:09:36I think, Fern, I'm going to go for the statue.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35Question number five.

0:10:35 > 0:10:39In Greek mythology, everything King Midas touches... BUZZER

0:10:39 > 0:10:42- Cathy.- Gold.- Well done, yes, it is.

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Everything King Midas touches becomes what precious metal?

0:10:46 > 0:10:47The answer of course is gold.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50Margaret, what do you fancy up there?

0:10:50 > 0:10:52The spoons and forks, please.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Margaret, pick something.

0:12:26 > 0:12:31Whilst Brendan and Lynne have managed to collect the statue and the bowl.

0:12:31 > 0:12:33Very well matched. Excellent.

0:12:33 > 0:12:35Our teams have started to build their collections,

0:12:35 > 0:12:37but before they have the chance to add to them,

0:12:37 > 0:12:43Charles is going to give each of you a fact about a lot of your choice.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46Now, these snippets of information should give you vital

0:12:46 > 0:12:50clues about what it's worth, so choose wisely and listen carefully.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52You can choose a lot that is one of yours,

0:12:52 > 0:12:56one of another opponent's or something from the grid, OK?

0:12:56 > 0:12:59So, David, which lot would you like to hear more about?

0:12:59 > 0:13:02Could you tell me more about the clock, please?

0:13:02 > 0:13:05This is a real Doulton Lambeth Ware clock,

0:13:05 > 0:13:10designed by a gent called George Tinworth in around 1880.

0:13:10 > 0:13:14Tinworth was given free rein to create pieces

0:13:14 > 0:13:16featuring things he loved,

0:13:16 > 0:13:20and George just happened to love mice.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23This clock only came in brown.

0:13:23 > 0:13:26Not a colour people rushed out to buy.

0:13:26 > 0:13:32So, are these mice? Is the clock playing sweet music to you?

0:13:33 > 0:13:36Margaret, what would you like to know more about?

0:13:36 > 0:13:38The statue, please, Fern. Thank you.

0:13:38 > 0:13:43Well, this one is by a gentleman called Edward William Wyon.

0:13:43 > 0:13:47He was an English sculptor from 1811 and died 1885.

0:13:47 > 0:13:52He created this bronze model of St Michael overcoming the devil

0:13:52 > 0:13:58from a version by John Flaxman for the Art Union Of London in 1842.

0:13:58 > 0:14:05This bronze is one of many models produced by the Art Union.

0:14:05 > 0:14:09It was used as an example of the attempt to improve

0:14:09 > 0:14:15the status and quality of English bronze sculpture.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17Oh...interesting! OK.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Now, Brendan, what would you like to hear more about?

0:14:19 > 0:14:21I like to hear more about the stamps, please.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24Ah, that Simon and David have over there.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26Unused stamps.

0:14:26 > 0:14:29These are issued in 1958

0:14:29 > 0:14:31in this ultramarine blue.

0:14:31 > 0:14:34And of course, when you collect stamps that are still connected,

0:14:34 > 0:14:37there can be a lot that affects value.

0:14:37 > 0:14:42These ones are still joined vertically, which is more unusual.

0:14:42 > 0:14:48You may have noticed that the perforations are imperfect, though.

0:14:48 > 0:14:54The top one actually has three smooth sides, do note.

0:14:54 > 0:14:59Originally, also, these would have come as a set of six.

0:14:59 > 0:15:03OK, now that you are all a bit more knowledgeable about today's lots,

0:15:03 > 0:15:07let's give you the chance to add more of them to your collections.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09Bear in mind that at the end of this round,

0:15:09 > 0:15:13the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Three more lots are now available to each pair.

0:15:17 > 0:15:20This time, pickers, you will target a lot,

0:15:20 > 0:15:23and quizzers, you then have to secure it

0:15:23 > 0:15:25by answering a question correctly.

0:15:25 > 0:15:30But in this round, the lots come with their own categories.

0:15:30 > 0:15:34OK, let's start with Simon and David.

0:15:34 > 0:15:36Let's go for the vases.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39Vases. Simon.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41'80s Cinema or Bestselling Books?

0:15:41 > 0:15:43'80s Cinema.

0:15:43 > 0:15:44Here's your question.

0:15:44 > 0:15:49In which 1984 film did the protagonists drive the Ecto-1?

0:15:49 > 0:15:51Back To The Future.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Simon, I'm so sorry, the answer actually is Ghostbusters.

0:15:53 > 0:15:56So the vases will stay on the grid.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58Next up, Cathy and Margaret.

0:15:58 > 0:15:59Margaret, what would you like?

0:15:59 > 0:16:01I'll try the vases.

0:16:01 > 0:16:05OK, Cathy, '80s Cinema or Bestselling Books?

0:16:05 > 0:16:07- '80s Cinema.- '80s Cinema.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11What was the name of the pirate in The Goonies?

0:16:11 > 0:16:12One-Eyed Willy.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14It is One-Eyed Willy, congratulations.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17- The vases are yours. - I love that film.- Do you?

0:16:17 > 0:16:18You love it? Best film...

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Lynne and Brendan. Brendan, what would you like?

0:16:20 > 0:16:23I think we'll go for the baton.

0:16:23 > 0:16:27All right. Lynne, Kings And Queens or Opera?

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Oh, I'll go Kings And Queens.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Yes, OK, your question is...

0:16:31 > 0:16:35What was the maiden name of Henry VIII's last wife?

0:16:35 > 0:16:37- Parr.- It was.

0:16:37 > 0:16:38Catherine Parr.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41David, your turn again, what would you like?

0:16:42 > 0:16:45- The model.- The model.

0:16:45 > 0:16:47Simon, Opera or UK Geography?

0:16:47 > 0:16:49I think I'll go for UK Geography.

0:16:50 > 0:16:55In which country of the UK is the Cairngorms National Park?

0:16:55 > 0:16:56Scotland.

0:16:56 > 0:17:00It is Scotland. The model is yours.

0:17:00 > 0:17:01Cathy and Margaret.

0:17:01 > 0:17:02Margaret, what do you want?

0:17:02 > 0:17:04The shell, please.

0:17:04 > 0:17:05The shell.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07Cathy. '80s Cinema or Celebrity Chefs?

0:17:07 > 0:17:09'80s Cinema!

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Oh, yes, she's on it, isn't she?

0:17:11 > 0:17:16In the John Hughes film, Claire, John, Andrew, Brian and Alison

0:17:16 > 0:17:18are collectively known by what name?

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Breakfast Club.

0:17:23 > 0:17:25Correct! Well done! THEY LAUGH

0:17:25 > 0:17:28The shell is yours.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Brendan, what would you like to pick?

0:17:30 > 0:17:32I'm going to go for the clock.

0:17:32 > 0:17:33The clock.

0:17:33 > 0:17:35Kings And Queens or Bestselling Books, Lynne?

0:17:35 > 0:17:38- Kings And Queens, please. - OK, here we go.

0:17:38 > 0:17:42Who succeeded Queen Victoria to the throne in 1901?

0:17:42 > 0:17:43Edward VII.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45It was Edward VII.

0:17:45 > 0:17:47The clock is yours.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50So, teams, your collections are growing.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52But now, remember, at the end of this round,

0:17:52 > 0:17:55the pair with the least valuable collection will be leaving us.

0:17:55 > 0:18:00So, have you missed out on that one item you want above all else?

0:18:00 > 0:18:02If so, here is your chance to secure it.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05There's one last lot available to each team

0:18:05 > 0:18:08and this time you can either go for what's left on the grid

0:18:08 > 0:18:11or you can try to steal an antique

0:18:11 > 0:18:13that is in someone else's collection.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15But pickers, be warned,

0:18:15 > 0:18:18because if you choose to steal from another team,

0:18:18 > 0:18:23it's their quizzer who will get to decide your quizzer's category.

0:18:23 > 0:18:27Right, David, do you want to target a lot from the grid

0:18:27 > 0:18:30or have you got your eye on something in another collection?

0:18:30 > 0:18:32I think I would like the statue.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36The statue, that is in Lynne and Brendan's collection.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38Lynne, I want you to choose any category

0:18:38 > 0:18:41of question up there for Simon.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Let's go rugby union.

0:18:43 > 0:18:44Oh...

0:18:46 > 0:18:51OK, Simon, the Brumbies are a professional rugby team in which country?

0:18:51 > 0:18:53New Zealand.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55- Oh, you were so close, it was Australia.- Oh...

0:18:55 > 0:18:59Lynne, you've defended that statue very well indeed.

0:18:59 > 0:19:00Cathy and Margaret.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02Margaret, would you like something from the grid

0:19:02 > 0:19:05or something from someone else's collection?

0:19:05 > 0:19:07The bowl, please.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08The silver bowl.

0:19:08 > 0:19:11That is in Lynne and Brendan's collection.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13And Lynne...

0:19:13 > 0:19:16What question category would you like to give to Cathy?

0:19:16 > 0:19:18I haven't heard anything about Plant Life yet,

0:19:18 > 0:19:20so let's go for that.

0:19:20 > 0:19:22OK, Plant Life.

0:19:22 > 0:19:26Which fossilised yellow resin comes from tree sap?

0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Amber.- It is amber.

0:19:29 > 0:19:32Oh, you've stolen the silver bowl!

0:19:32 > 0:19:34And there it is, in its new home.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Lynne and Brendan, Brendan?

0:19:36 > 0:19:38What would you like?

0:19:38 > 0:19:41- I think we'll have a go at stealing the bowl back. - LAUGHTER

0:19:41 > 0:19:43Stealing the bowl back, fair enough.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46All right, Cathy, you pick a category for Lynne, please.

0:19:48 > 0:19:49- Opera.- Opera.

0:19:50 > 0:19:53The aria Nessun Dorma is from which opera?

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Turandot.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58It is, it is, correct.

0:19:58 > 0:19:59- Well done.- Welcome back that bowl.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Well, it wasn't there for very long.

0:20:01 > 0:20:05Let's see how the collections stand at the end of that round.

0:20:05 > 0:20:09David and Simon, you still have the model, the stamps and the screens.

0:20:09 > 0:20:13Margaret and Kathy, you have the vases, the shell, the spoons

0:20:13 > 0:20:15and forks, and the golf club.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19Brendan and Lynne, you've defended the bowl. It sits proudly

0:20:19 > 0:20:23in your collection alongside the statue, the baton and the clock.

0:20:23 > 0:20:25OK, that is it for round two,

0:20:25 > 0:20:28and for one team, it is now the end of the road. Who's it going to be?

0:20:28 > 0:20:32Well, we've calculated the combined value of your items, and the team

0:20:32 > 0:20:35with the least valuable collection will be eliminated, taking their

0:20:35 > 0:20:40lots out of the game. So, Charles has been keeping a tab on things.

0:20:40 > 0:20:43Charles, who is going to be the first to leave us today?

0:20:43 > 0:20:47The pair leaving us first today...

0:20:49 > 0:20:50..is Margaret and Kathy. I'm sorry.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52No!

0:20:52 > 0:20:56You've built a nice collection there as well, I'm so sorry to lose you.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59Never mind. Listen, you want to know, before you go,

0:20:59 > 0:21:03how much each of the lots are worth, don't you? Yes. Charles.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06You built a lovely collection, you had four items.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08We talk about quality, don't we? And quantity.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11You had the quantity and, in my opinion, quality as well.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15We will start with the pair of Japanese vases.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17These are late Satsuma.

0:21:17 > 0:21:20What we look for in Satsuma pottery, not the squeezy variety,

0:21:20 > 0:21:23but the region of Japan where these were made,

0:21:23 > 0:21:25is a tightly knit form of decoration.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27These are quite loose and quite late,

0:21:27 > 0:21:31made for the western souvenir market. I think they are great.

0:21:31 > 0:21:35- They weren't worthless, their value was £130.- Wow.

0:21:35 > 0:21:38OK. So, not a bad start.

0:21:38 > 0:21:43We then teed off with a delightfully, quite rare

0:21:43 > 0:21:47Cran Cleek, wood face, Spalding,

0:21:47 > 0:21:50gold-medal golf club, which is here.

0:21:50 > 0:21:51Delightful object, very late,

0:21:51 > 0:21:54made in the same year as the Diamond Jubilee, 1897.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56The grip isn't original,

0:21:56 > 0:22:00but the golfing memorabilia department is huge across salerooms.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03It is worth £200.

0:22:03 > 0:22:04OK, what's next?

0:22:04 > 0:22:08These spoons are really well enamelled, they have a quality.

0:22:08 > 0:22:12They are silver gilt, they are delightful, Danish, Scandinavian,

0:22:12 > 0:22:16that was the vogue in that middle part of the last century.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19By a great man called Anton Michelsen.

0:22:19 > 0:22:23There they are. Although they were made in large quantities,

0:22:23 > 0:22:27their quality is improving in value all the time.

0:22:27 > 0:22:31They are worth £350.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34And finally, the shell case.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37This shell case, of course, this is trench art.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39Made from cast-offs, particularly shells.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42This is an older World War I shell.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46Really interestingly, it's been inlaid when it's been sent to

0:22:46 > 0:22:51an arts school in Jerusalem, so that lovely silver and copper wire work

0:22:51 > 0:22:54gives it quite a rare artistry.

0:22:54 > 0:22:57We see lots of shell cases, they can make £30.

0:22:57 > 0:23:01This one, though, is particularly unique.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04- And it's worth £1,000.- Wow!

0:23:04 > 0:23:07- Absolutely. - That was a very good spot.

0:23:07 > 0:23:09Margaret and Kathy, it is

0:23:09 > 0:23:12time to bring the hammer down on your collection, I'm afraid,

0:23:12 > 0:23:15but thank you so much for playing For What It's Worth.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18Thank you for having us.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21We were beaten by a better team.

0:23:21 > 0:23:25They stole the bowl off me. When I think we would have been OK.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29At one point we had five items,

0:23:29 > 0:23:32- which is more than anyone else. - Yeah.

0:23:32 > 0:23:33I think we did quite well.

0:23:33 > 0:23:38It was just luck on the questions, but sadly, the bowl did it.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39SHE LAUGHS

0:23:41 > 0:23:46Now, the unclaimed lots in the grid are also leaving the game,

0:23:46 > 0:23:49so let's quickly find out from Charles what they were worth

0:23:49 > 0:23:53and if the top lot is still in the game. OK, Charles, tapestry.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56Yes, Fern, we talk about pedigree and provenance,

0:23:56 > 0:23:58and, Simon, I was so impressed.

0:23:58 > 0:24:00I think your comment was the best comment I heard

0:24:00 > 0:24:02in that viewing room.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05You quoted, "It would look good in a stately home."

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Well, hello, this tapestry came from Chatsworth.

0:24:09 > 0:24:12- Wow.- That jewel in Derbyshire's crown.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15However, it is quite a mundane subject. It's religious.

0:24:15 > 0:24:20We look for the more sentimental, more invigorating Victorian scenes.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23It is 19th-century, it's not earlier, and

0:24:23 > 0:24:27- although it came from Chatsworth, it's only worth about £80.- Amazing.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30It is fairly out of fashion in the current market.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32Well, he's gone, we don't care. Next.

0:24:32 > 0:24:36And then, and then it may have not blown your mind away,

0:24:36 > 0:24:40but this was this interesting-looking clay pipe,

0:24:40 > 0:24:43and, really, they were mass-produced in the late 19th century.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46Not overly clever but for one thing.

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Look at the ball and the boot.

0:24:48 > 0:24:52It's got this early rugby association,

0:24:52 > 0:24:55and you'll see the figures holding the balls in their hands.

0:24:55 > 0:24:57Rugby union goes back to 1845.

0:24:57 > 0:25:02This is very early in the founding of rugby, circa 1818.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05- What's it worth? £100.- There you go.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08- £100.- What's the next one?

0:25:08 > 0:25:11The next item on the board now, you'll see,

0:25:11 > 0:25:16and again, Lynne, you were quite right in its practical purpose.

0:25:16 > 0:25:19You said you would use it to open bills. Quite right.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21It is a letter opener.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24It's a gorgeous object, and it's based, in style,

0:25:24 > 0:25:28on a 17th-century Scottish basket hilt sword.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Importantly, hallmarked for Edinburgh,

0:25:31 > 0:25:34so with Scottish love, 1880s.

0:25:34 > 0:25:38And these small collectables are so good today.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41What's it worth? £250.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44Is it? It's lovely, it's got charm, hasn't it?

0:25:44 > 0:25:47It has got charm. Real charm.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50- OK, what's next? - This is by a fairly important name.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54It is an Edward Ward Arm & Platform sewing machine,

0:25:54 > 0:25:57made in around 1875.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Important for its mechanics within, it was innovative,

0:26:01 > 0:26:03it was revolutionary.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Brendan, you said it was interesting,

0:26:05 > 0:26:07it bore the Staffordshire knot, you're quite right.

0:26:07 > 0:26:12Midlands-made, but with a London retailer attached to it.

0:26:12 > 0:26:17Importantly, made by Edwards with this Arm & Platform device,

0:26:17 > 0:26:20which was so invigorating to a market.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Hold tight, this is expensive.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26- £1,800.- Oh!- Wow.

0:26:26 > 0:26:30Wow. But it's still not the top lot. So that's good.

0:26:30 > 0:26:32Top lot, as far as we know, is still there.

0:26:32 > 0:26:33But there's one more for you to come.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Yes, one more. Is this it? I'll tell you.

0:26:35 > 0:26:38This, again, bottle of beer,

0:26:38 > 0:26:42was made for that wedding of July 1981.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45- Where were you, Fern?- I was working on television, reporting on it.

0:26:45 > 0:26:48- There we are, hey. History. - Charles and Diana's wedding.

0:26:48 > 0:26:51- This, luckily, Fern, never opened and drank...- Oh.

0:26:51 > 0:26:55..on the day in celebration of that day. This is a bottle of beer

0:26:55 > 0:26:58celebrating that great wedding day of '81.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00It hasn't been touched by royalty.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03They were made in their hundreds of thousands.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Many are still in chests of drawers,

0:27:06 > 0:27:10because we tend to keep raw commemoratives for what they are.

0:27:10 > 0:27:11As a memory.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15You wouldn't drink it now. What's it worth, Fern?

0:27:15 > 0:27:17What would you pay for it?

0:27:17 > 0:27:21It's either the top lot, or I would say it's the worthless one.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24It is absolutely worthless. On a good day, £10.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27- Well done.- Very good.

0:27:27 > 0:27:31So, now we know that the top lot, worth £2,500,

0:27:31 > 0:27:35is sitting somewhere in your collections right here,

0:27:35 > 0:27:38and you've got rid of the bottom lot, which is even better.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42OK, just two pairs of contestants left, but before we go any further,

0:27:42 > 0:27:46Charles is going to give you another fact about a lot of your choice.

0:27:46 > 0:27:50It could be yours, it could be theirs. David, you can go first.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53What lot do you really need to know more about?

0:27:53 > 0:27:56I think I'd like to know a little bit more about the bowl,

0:27:56 > 0:27:58since everyone was so eager to get it but me.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00OK, let's have a look at the bowl.

0:28:00 > 0:28:02It's a silver punchbowl.

0:28:02 > 0:28:05The decoration, you'll see, is very neoclassic,

0:28:05 > 0:28:08harking back to the great Grecian designs.

0:28:08 > 0:28:12With the acanthus, very stiff leaf side handles.

0:28:12 > 0:28:17Made by Elkington & Co in Birmingham, in the year 1919.

0:28:17 > 0:28:21This company also invented the process of electroplating.

0:28:21 > 0:28:25Very interesting. It's solid sterling silver.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26All the hallmarks are present.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30But the question is, is it packing a punch to you?

0:28:30 > 0:28:33Or is it bittersweet?

0:28:33 > 0:28:35- I just don't know. - Brendan and Lynne.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37Brendan, what would you like to know more about?

0:28:37 > 0:28:41- I'd like to know a little bit more about the screens.- The screens.

0:28:41 > 0:28:43Brendan, these are pole screens.

0:28:43 > 0:28:46They were screens used by Victorian ladies in the day

0:28:46 > 0:28:49to ensure they didn't get too flushed whilst

0:28:49 > 0:28:53sitting in front of a hot, warming fire.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56They were able to move them easily around the room.

0:28:56 > 0:29:01Although the market for things like this has plummeted over the last

0:29:01 > 0:29:05few years, it's always important and attractive to have a pair.

0:29:07 > 0:29:09And this pair, a particularly

0:29:09 > 0:29:14fine example in mahogany.

0:29:14 > 0:29:16Are they en garde for you?

0:29:16 > 0:29:19So, those are all the facts that are available to you.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21It's now time for our final round,

0:29:21 > 0:29:24and at the end of it we will have our winners.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29I'm going to give the quizzers a category,

0:29:29 > 0:29:33and then they have to take turns to say answers in that category.

0:29:33 > 0:29:37For example, if I said "types of pasta", you might say

0:29:37 > 0:29:42fettuccine, you might say spaghetti, you might say fusilli, and so on.

0:29:42 > 0:29:46If you fail to give an answer, or if you repeat an answer,

0:29:46 > 0:29:49or you give a wrong answer, you lose that category.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52And the opponents' picker will be able to steal

0:29:52 > 0:29:55a lot from your collection.

0:29:55 > 0:29:57OK, there are three categories of questions.

0:29:57 > 0:30:01And the pair with the most valuable collection at this point goes first.

0:30:01 > 0:30:03Charles, who is that?

0:30:03 > 0:30:07I can reveal that the team who currently has

0:30:07 > 0:30:09the most valuable collection is...

0:30:11 > 0:30:15- ..Brendan and Lynne.- Oh. OK.

0:30:15 > 0:30:20Quizzer Lynne, you will start us off, and the first category is...

0:30:26 > 0:30:31According to the 2015-16 QS World University Rankings, this is.

0:30:31 > 0:30:35Lynne, give me an answer.

0:30:35 > 0:30:36- Oxford.- Correct.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38- Simon?- Cambridge.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41- Correct. Lynne.- Harvard.

0:30:41 > 0:30:42Correct. Simon.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44- Imperial.- Correct.

0:30:44 > 0:30:45- Lynne.- Durham.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50Incorrect, Lynne. Durham is not on the list.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52David, get ready to steal.

0:30:52 > 0:30:53What do you want?

0:30:53 > 0:30:56I think, based on what I've learned,

0:30:56 > 0:30:58I think I'm going to go for the bowl.

0:30:58 > 0:31:03- Everybody loves that bowl.- They do. - The bowl. It is yours.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06Simon, this is your chance now, and the next question is...

0:31:11 > 0:31:15Simon, please give me an answer.

0:31:15 > 0:31:17- Genesis.- Correct. Lynne.

0:31:17 > 0:31:19- Job.- Correct. Simon.

0:31:25 > 0:31:28- Luke.- That is incorrect.

0:31:28 > 0:31:30That is a book from the New Testament.

0:31:30 > 0:31:34Well, Brendan, is there anything in that collection over there you

0:31:34 > 0:31:39- might be interested in?- I think I might be interested in the bowl.

0:31:39 > 0:31:40The bowl. You surprise me.

0:31:40 > 0:31:43OK, well, that is going back to your collection.

0:31:43 > 0:31:44- THEY LAUGH - Got to get it back.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47And we have one last question left,

0:31:47 > 0:31:49so get ready to do some more stealing.

0:31:57 > 0:32:00And, Lynne, can you give me an answer?

0:32:00 > 0:32:03- Adele.- Correct. Simon.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05- Whitney Houston.- Correct. Lynne.

0:32:07 > 0:32:08Paloma Faith.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12Paloma Faith is not on the list.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15But here are some of the people you could have had.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18Gloria Gaynor, Celine Dion,

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Britney Spears, it goes on and on and on.

0:32:21 > 0:32:25But for Simon and David, this is a lifeline you've grabbed, Simon.

0:32:25 > 0:32:27Congratulations.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30David, is there anything you've got your eye on in Lynne

0:32:30 > 0:32:32and Brendan's collection?

0:32:32 > 0:32:35I'm going to go with my instinct and I'm going to go with the bowl.

0:32:35 > 0:32:37The silver bowl is yours, David.

0:32:37 > 0:32:39It's going straight into your collection.

0:32:39 > 0:32:44- Oh, Lynne and Brendan, that really hurts?- It does.- It really does.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46Now, let's take another look at our teams'

0:32:46 > 0:32:48collections at the end of that round.

0:32:48 > 0:32:51David and Simon, your attempts to steal the coveted bowl

0:32:51 > 0:32:55have paid off. It has now joined the stamps, the screens

0:32:55 > 0:32:57and the model in your collection.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00Brendan and Lynne, you've managed to hang onto the statute,

0:33:00 > 0:33:02the baton and the clock.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05Well, that's it, your collections are now fixed

0:33:05 > 0:33:09and will determine which of you is the victorious team.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12Charles, who's got the most valuable collection?

0:33:12 > 0:33:16I can reveal that the team with the most voluble collection,

0:33:16 > 0:33:19and the winners of today's show, are...

0:33:21 > 0:33:22..Brendan and Lynne!

0:33:22 > 0:33:25- Well done.- Fantastic. - Congratulations.- Thank you.

0:33:25 > 0:33:27With the silver bowl.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30Well, commiserations to you, David and Simon.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32My goodness, you did your best.

0:33:32 > 0:33:35You didn't create the most valuable collection, but before we say

0:33:35 > 0:33:40goodbye, let's find out what items are also leaving the game.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43Charles, what did you make of their collection?

0:33:43 > 0:33:47It all began with that male model with muscles.

0:33:47 > 0:33:51Made by the German company SOMSO, and Adam, Rouilly,

0:33:51 > 0:33:56he distributed this figure around many a retailer.

0:33:56 > 0:33:59It was quite amusing. David, you thought it was ugly.

0:33:59 > 0:34:04Not quite the David of Michelangelo, but David over there.

0:34:04 > 0:34:08Lynne, you thought it would be used by physiotherapists.

0:34:08 > 0:34:12Very well done in that regard, it clearly is a teaching aid.

0:34:12 > 0:34:16This market of scientific research and the body is all the rage

0:34:16 > 0:34:19now amongst a certain pool of collectors.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22Fern, it is worth £550.

0:34:22 > 0:34:24- Oh! What's next?- Absolutely right.

0:34:24 > 0:34:29The evergreen antique, which was all the rage back in the '80s.

0:34:29 > 0:34:32And I love these, these are a fine pair of pole screens.

0:34:32 > 0:34:34What's interesting, they are,

0:34:34 > 0:34:38and we mentioned Victorians enjoyed them, but they are slightly earlier,

0:34:38 > 0:34:40or early Victorian, circa 1814.

0:34:40 > 0:34:43Importantly, their finish was so good.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46They are in that Gillows manner,

0:34:46 > 0:34:49rich regency style.

0:34:49 > 0:34:52- Value, £800 was their market value. - No!

0:34:52 > 0:34:54So, great choice.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57- Right, what's it going to be? Stamps or bowl?- Yeah.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00They weren't sticky, they weren't flat...this lot.

0:35:00 > 0:35:03Again, we had some very amusing comments.

0:35:03 > 0:35:06Simon, you thought the Queen looked young.

0:35:06 > 0:35:09Well, you're quite right, certainly we are going back to the late

0:35:09 > 0:35:13'50s, five years into her great coronation.

0:35:13 > 0:35:17And this is quite a rare, unused stamp,

0:35:17 > 0:35:18issued in '58 in this quite,

0:35:18 > 0:35:22again, unusual ultra marine blue.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24Of course, the world record for a stamp

0:35:24 > 0:35:27was set only a couple of years ago when a British Guiana stamp

0:35:27 > 0:35:30made £5.6 million in New York.

0:35:30 > 0:35:33Not this... Not this collection but, even so,

0:35:33 > 0:35:35these two are still worth -

0:35:35 > 0:35:37hold tight, Fern -

0:35:37 > 0:35:40£1,250.

0:35:40 > 0:35:43Oh, now, this bowl, it's got to be up there, surely?

0:35:43 > 0:35:44Oh, absolutely, and I can see...

0:35:44 > 0:35:46It's like a trophy, isn't it?

0:35:46 > 0:35:48It's a trophy cup, almost like a...

0:35:48 > 0:35:50It is for us. We've enjoyed it.

0:35:50 > 0:35:51Yeah, like an FA Cup,

0:35:51 > 0:35:52and I thought, at the end,

0:35:52 > 0:35:55you were going to fill it with champagne and salute,

0:35:55 > 0:35:58thinking the deed was done for the day.

0:35:58 > 0:36:02This is the finest quality of silver you will see,

0:36:02 > 0:36:05by Elkington's most important manufacturer

0:36:05 > 0:36:07in a really important time,

0:36:07 > 0:36:10reviving a very desirable style,

0:36:10 > 0:36:14but what was it worth? How near were you to taking the game?

0:36:14 > 0:36:16You weren't far at all,

0:36:16 > 0:36:19because it had a handsome price, Fern...

0:36:19 > 0:36:21of £600.

0:36:21 > 0:36:23- Is that it?- Yeah.

0:36:23 > 0:36:28- Your collection totalled £3,200... - Wow.

0:36:28 > 0:36:31..so, it was no mean sum.

0:36:31 > 0:36:33Simon and David, thank you so much.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35- You've been wonderful contestants... - Thank you.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37..and thank you for playing For What It's Worth,

0:36:37 > 0:36:39Simon and David.

0:36:40 > 0:36:42I think we... We gave it a good shot.

0:36:42 > 0:36:45It's amazing, when you're out there, you get the easiest question

0:36:45 > 0:36:47and you just freeze or you think about it too much,

0:36:47 > 0:36:50and before you know it, someone's beat you to the buzzer.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53Simon set us up in a great position.

0:36:53 > 0:36:54He answered the questions.

0:36:54 > 0:36:56He gave me the chance, at the end, to steal the game,

0:36:56 > 0:36:59but I was distracted by everyone's love of that bowl.

0:37:01 > 0:37:03- Well done, Brendan and Lynne. - Thank you.

0:37:03 > 0:37:06My goodness, they have built the most valuable collection,

0:37:06 > 0:37:08and you are today's winners.

0:37:08 > 0:37:13Now, all that remains is for you to claim your prize.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16All you have to do is pick a lot from your collection,

0:37:16 > 0:37:19and we will give you its value in cash.

0:37:19 > 0:37:23We know that you do have the top lot in there,

0:37:23 > 0:37:26but can you find it?

0:37:26 > 0:37:29The clock is unusual, in that, I've seen a lot of Doulton,

0:37:29 > 0:37:32but I've never seen that clock, but it is damaged.

0:37:32 > 0:37:34And then we go to the statue,

0:37:34 > 0:37:37which I've felt, all the way through,

0:37:37 > 0:37:39has got something about it,

0:37:39 > 0:37:41and then, we've got the baton.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44- It's a nice lot but I don't think it's the most valuable.- Yeah, OK.

0:37:44 > 0:37:49- So we're up to the clock and the statue.- Mm-hmm.

0:37:49 > 0:37:53Erm, I'm going to have to go with my gut instinct

0:37:53 > 0:37:55and stay with the statue.

0:37:55 > 0:37:57The statue.

0:37:57 > 0:37:59So, you've chosen the statue, very good,

0:37:59 > 0:38:03but before we tell you what it's worth, Charles, can you please

0:38:03 > 0:38:07tell us the value of the rejected lots, starting with the baton?

0:38:07 > 0:38:09I can, indeed. What was interesting, Brendan and Lynne,

0:38:09 > 0:38:12you thought this may have been a swagger stick at first -

0:38:12 > 0:38:14of militaria interest -

0:38:14 > 0:38:16but you're quite right, a baton is what it is.

0:38:16 > 0:38:20Lynne, you mentioned that all-important inscription,

0:38:20 > 0:38:23"Mrs VE Smith, take a bow."

0:38:23 > 0:38:27How important was she in 1933?

0:38:27 > 0:38:28We don't know.

0:38:28 > 0:38:31- Oh...- So she has no pedigree.

0:38:31 > 0:38:35It's a fairly standard baton without a box.

0:38:35 > 0:38:39Lovely object, full of the thrills and spills of the theatre,

0:38:39 > 0:38:41but it's worth £50.

0:38:41 > 0:38:43- Good heavens.- So, well done.

0:38:43 > 0:38:45Now, the clock?

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Lynne, you're quite right. It had its condition issues.

0:38:48 > 0:38:52That delightful little mouse is missing its instrument,

0:38:52 > 0:38:54so he's not blowing a horn, is he?

0:38:54 > 0:38:58But, don't forget, this goes back to the all-important "A" in antique.

0:38:58 > 0:39:03Tinworth was the most important designer at Doulton.

0:39:03 > 0:39:07He was famed for his humorous types of figures.

0:39:07 > 0:39:12He was given free rein to take the Doulton factory on this journey.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15It was, Fern, our top lot, at £2,500.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18- Sorry.- Oh, my goodness.- Oh...

0:39:18 > 0:39:21- That's unbelievable. - It's sad, but...

0:39:21 > 0:39:24- I did describe it as hideous. - You did, yeah.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26- Well, there you go. - Brendan and Lynne, come and join me,

0:39:26 > 0:39:29to take a closer look at your chosen lot,

0:39:29 > 0:39:31this beautiful statue,

0:39:31 > 0:39:34and see if we can tempt you with our mystery lot,

0:39:34 > 0:39:37which may be worth more.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40There is that beautiful statue.

0:39:40 > 0:39:43You may be very confident that you have something that is

0:39:43 > 0:39:46worth a small fortune, but before we tell you its value,

0:39:46 > 0:39:50we are going to tempt you with today's mystery lot.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52Charles, would you like to reveal?

0:39:54 > 0:39:57- Ah, what do we have here? - There we go.

0:39:57 > 0:40:02This, before me, is a signed WG Grace note.

0:40:04 > 0:40:06You'll see his signature, all-important,

0:40:06 > 0:40:09on London County Cricket Club paper,

0:40:09 > 0:40:13dated June 26, 1908,

0:40:13 > 0:40:16seven years before he died,

0:40:16 > 0:40:22and what price would you pay for a signature by such a founding father?

0:40:22 > 0:40:27The content of the letter isn't overly invigorating, Fern,

0:40:27 > 0:40:30but the signature is so important.

0:40:30 > 0:40:31You must remember,

0:40:31 > 0:40:35when it comes to this great market for sporting ephemera,

0:40:35 > 0:40:42a shirt worn by a 1926 New York Yankees pitcher -

0:40:42 > 0:40:45someone called Babe Ruth - made 4.4 million.

0:40:45 > 0:40:48Frightening, but this goes back. This is earlier -
