Hello and welcome to For What It's Worth,

0:00:140:00:16

where a top cash prize waits for the smartest quizzers

0:00:160:00:20

and the sharpest shoppers.

0:00:200:00:22

Three pairs of contestants are ready to play,

0:00:220:00:24

and in each team is a quizzer,

0:00:240:00:26

responsible for answering general knowledge questions,

0:00:260:00:29

so that their partner, the picker,

0:00:290:00:31

can choose an antique or collectable item to add to their collection.

0:00:310:00:35

So, here are today's lots for your consideration.

0:00:350:00:38

16 different antiques and collectables,

0:00:380:00:42

and we have vases,

0:00:420:00:44

a camera, a relic, a jug,

0:00:440:00:48

a dove, some spoons, paintings,

0:00:480:00:51

a sword, decorative glass, a pen box,

0:00:510:00:56

a poster, some jewellery, a military shell,

0:00:560:01:00

a pole screen, a censer and a medicine chest.

0:01:000:01:05

All very different with very different values.

0:01:050:01:08

One is worthless - worth £10 or less -

0:01:080:01:10

and the rest increase in value

0:01:100:01:12

up to our top lot

0:01:120:01:14

which is worth a whopping £2,500.

0:01:140:01:18

And that is the lot to spot, because at the end of the show,

0:01:180:01:21

the winning pair will walk away with

0:01:210:01:23

the cash equivalent of one of these items.

0:01:230:01:26

Now, the aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection.

0:01:260:01:29

So, first up, we have Sharman and Sue

0:01:290:01:31

who are friends from Lincolnshire.

0:01:310:01:33

Welcome to the show.

0:01:330:01:35

Sharman, I know you're an amateur painter,

0:01:350:01:37

but you also collect compacts...

0:01:370:01:39

-Yes, that's right.

-..with a particular motif on them.

0:01:390:01:42

Well, I used to collect them all,

0:01:420:01:44

and then I decided I couldn't buy every compact in the world,

0:01:440:01:48

so I decided to collect compacts with ships on.

0:01:480:01:50

-Well, Sharman, you're welcome.

-Thank you.

0:01:500:01:52

And next you is your friend Sue,

0:01:520:01:54

who is the quizzer, and you are a keen pop quizzer.

0:01:540:01:57

We go to one or two local village quizzes.

0:01:570:02:01

Do you win when you play?

0:02:010:02:03

-We have won - put it that way. Not always.

-Very good.

0:02:030:02:05

Oh, this is a team to watch, isn't it?

0:02:050:02:07

-No, no, no, no.

-FERN CHUCKLES

0:02:070:02:09

It's only a small village - don't forget.

0:02:090:02:11

Sharman and Sue, you're very welcome.

0:02:110:02:13

And next we have Natasha and Leon,

0:02:130:02:15

who are also friends, from Manchester.

0:02:150:02:17

Lovely to have you on the show as well.

0:02:170:02:19

Now, Natasha, you are picking the antiques for the team,

0:02:190:02:22

so what whets your appetite

0:02:220:02:24

in the world of antiques and collectables?

0:02:240:02:26

-Well, I'd have to say timepieces.

-So watches and clocks?

0:02:260:02:29

I've got a beautiful 1920s Cartier watch

0:02:290:02:33

which was a present bought for me at auction.

0:02:330:02:36

Wow. And sitting next you is Leon. You go to car-boot sales together?

0:02:360:02:41

-Yeah.

-So who ends up carrying all the goodies home?

0:02:410:02:45

That would be Leon, the strong one out of us both.

0:02:450:02:49

I do all the purchasing, Leon does all the carrying.

0:02:490:02:52

Yeah, sadly. I mean, yeah.

0:02:520:02:53

You're doing all the carrying of the general knowledge today.

0:02:530:02:57

-Yes, I am.

-Are you a good quizzer?

0:02:570:02:58

-I'd like to think of myself as a good quizzer.

-Good. OK.

0:02:580:03:03

-Thank you. Lovely to have you both here.

-Thank you.

0:03:030:03:05

And last but not least,

0:03:050:03:06

we have Dan and Jim, who are also friends, from Bristol.

0:03:060:03:10

Hello to you both.

0:03:100:03:12

Now, Dan, you are the team's picker today.

0:03:120:03:14

How did your interest in antiques begin?

0:03:140:03:17

It started through my mum and my nan from when I was younger.

0:03:170:03:20

Just going round charity shops and car-boot sales and the jumble sales.

0:03:200:03:24

-I found a Clarice Cliff sugar shaker...

-Yeah?

0:03:240:03:29

-..at a car-boot sale.

-FERN GASPS

0:03:290:03:31

-How much did you pay for that?

-It was about £3.

0:03:310:03:33

Wow. Good spot.

0:03:330:03:36

-And next to you is Jim. Welcome, Jim.

-All right, Fern?

0:03:360:03:39

You've been friends for a long time, haven't you?

0:03:390:03:41

Yeah, we have. For about 20 years. We first met at the rugby club

0:03:410:03:44

and then later on we happened to be in the same tutor group,

0:03:440:03:46

and we've been friends since then.

0:03:460:03:48

And you are, or were, a music student.

0:03:480:03:50

Yeah, I did, I studied music.

0:03:500:03:52

So, obviously you're collecting music paraphernalia?

0:03:520:03:54

I collect vinyl. Yeah, I've got some quite rare vinyls.

0:03:540:03:57

I've got a first edition Stone Roses,

0:03:570:03:58

I've got some quite early Beatles albums,

0:03:580:04:01

-I've got the first press of Rubber Soul.

-Good.

0:04:010:04:03

-Welcome, the pair of you.

-Thank you.

-Lovely.

0:04:030:04:05

We've got three great teams playing today.

0:04:050:04:08

Now, earlier, our teams inspected the lots,

0:04:080:04:10

but could they separate the chipboard from the Chippendale?

0:04:100:04:14

-Ooh!

-Ooh!

-Wow.

0:04:160:04:18

Right, where shall we start?

0:04:180:04:21

Let's see.

0:04:210:04:22

Posters aren't my bag.

0:04:240:04:26

About '30s, it looks.

0:04:260:04:28

It's for the days of the musical, I think.

0:04:280:04:30

-NATASHA:

-Pen box. This is beautiful.

0:04:310:04:33

This is silver.

0:04:330:04:35

Royal Crown on there.

0:04:350:04:36

-SHARMAN:

-I've always wanted to see one of these.

0:04:370:04:40

Medicine chest. This is beautiful. This is something that I would have.

0:04:400:04:43

And they're all, like, hand-blown as well. You can see from the bottom.

0:04:430:04:46

Onto the vases. Now, these look not very old at all.

0:04:470:04:50

These look like... Yes, Royal Crown Derby.

0:04:500:04:53

I think that's something that you wouldn't see a lot of.

0:04:540:04:57

Well, it depends. If we were at your house, then yeah.

0:04:570:05:00

So, that'd be a screen for in front of a fire.

0:05:000:05:03

Who has a set of three glasses? You know, it's usually six.

0:05:050:05:08

What would you say they'd be used for?

0:05:080:05:09

Drinking out of, cocktails, shots?

0:05:090:05:11

Personally, I'm not too keen on that style.

0:05:110:05:13

Peter W Cushing. Dartmouth Castle Does it ring a bell, the name?

0:05:150:05:19

I've been there, been there.

0:05:190:05:20

Original casing. Beautiful red velvet.

0:05:220:05:25

It's definitely got age to it.

0:05:250:05:27

Zeiss does very good lenses.

0:05:270:05:29

-DAN:

-Not probably worth that much, is it?

0:05:290:05:31

-"A relic of the standard taken from Richard III..."

-Oh!

0:05:310:05:34

This is more you.

0:05:340:05:36

That is quite an interesting item, isn't it?

0:05:360:05:38

-SUE:

-I think I've been in Stanton Harcourt church.

0:05:380:05:41

A jug. Now, this is your territory.

0:05:420:05:44

-The mark on the bottom, it says EP, so that's electroplated.

-OK.

0:05:440:05:48

It looks it from its appearance.

0:05:480:05:49

This reminds me a little of Lalique.

0:05:510:05:54

And if that's Lalique, then that's an incredible piece of glass.

0:05:540:05:56

That's the lion. That tells you it's silver.

0:05:580:06:01

I reckon these are...

0:06:010:06:02

These are pretty old. That's hand-hammered as well.

0:06:020:06:05

-DAN:

-Is something glued together? It's been broken at the top?

0:06:070:06:09

I don't think that's a modern glue.

0:06:090:06:11

Doesn't look like a dragon or anything, does it?

0:06:110:06:13

It's some sort of onyx or something like that.

0:06:130:06:16

By the power of Grayskull, Dan. It's a sword.

0:06:160:06:19

It's got some lovely engraving, and it's got that blue look.

0:06:190:06:22

-NATASHA:

-Now, as for jewellery...

-LEON:

-Yeah, this is you, this.

0:06:230:06:27

Do you reckon that's gold?

0:06:270:06:28

That's a World War I shell.

0:06:310:06:33

It's a beautiful design. I mean, it's absolutely stunning.

0:06:330:06:36

Top three is vases, pole screen and the dove.

0:06:360:06:40

-The relic...

-The relic, definitely.

0:06:400:06:43

-..the censer...

-Censer.

-..and the dove.

0:06:430:06:46

-The pair of vases, the medicine chest...

-OK.

0:06:460:06:49

..and probably the censer.

0:06:490:06:51

-Worthless item.

-The camera.

0:06:510:06:53

-The poster.

-The poster.

0:06:530:06:54

The decorative glass.

0:06:540:06:56

Joining me is our resident antiques expert, Kate Bliss.

0:07:020:07:05

Kate, what do you make of the lots we've got today?

0:07:050:07:08

Well, Fern, certainly we have a huge variety for you, teams.

0:07:080:07:13

There may be some things amongst the collection

0:07:130:07:16

that you find very eye-catching,

0:07:160:07:18

but do they have an eye-catching price tag?

0:07:180:07:22

Equally, there may be some things which you have completely dismissed

0:07:220:07:26

which are very unimpressive -

0:07:260:07:28

do they have an unimpressive value?

0:07:280:07:31

And how do you arrive at the valuations?

0:07:310:07:33

You can't just pluck it out of the air, can you?

0:07:330:07:35

Well, the value of each lot has been agreed

0:07:350:07:38

by myself and an independent valuer,

0:07:380:07:40

and this is based on the hammer price at auction,

0:07:400:07:44

and that is the price when the hammer falls,

0:07:440:07:48

-and it does not include any extra auction costs.

-OK.

0:07:480:07:53

Well, as well as those little treasures,

0:07:530:07:55

we have our Mystery Lot

0:07:550:07:57

which is hidden under the shroud of mystery

0:07:570:08:00

and poised to be uncovered at the end of the show

0:08:000:08:03

to tempt our winners.

0:08:030:08:05

Well, it could be worth a lot or not a lot.

0:08:050:08:08

We'll be unveiling it later.

0:08:080:08:09

But for now, it is time for Round 1.

0:08:090:08:11

So, I'm going to ask ten general knowledge questions,

0:08:140:08:18

and quizzers, if you buzz in with the correct answer,

0:08:180:08:20

your picker gets to add a lot to your collection.

0:08:200:08:24

But beware - buzz in incorrectly

0:08:240:08:27

and you will be frozen out of the next question.

0:08:270:08:30

Quizzers, get the questions right

0:08:300:08:31

and your picker will have the chance to collect the best lots first.

0:08:310:08:35

So, fingers on buzzers. Here comes question one.

0:08:350:08:39

Upon his retirement in 2013,

0:08:390:08:42

Dan, you get first pick.

0:08:520:08:54

-The...censer.

-The censer.

-Thank you very much.

0:08:590:09:02

The full question is during his time as Home Secretary,

0:09:140:09:17

0:09:400:09:42

I'm guessing Buckingham Palace.

0:09:420:09:44

-It is correct. Well done. Good guess.

-Gosh, well done.

0:09:440:09:47

Sharman, choose.

0:09:470:09:48

Ooh, I think I'm going to go for the pen box, thank you.

And the correct answer is Everglades, as you said, Sue.

0:10:100:10:13

The relic - it's coming towards you.

Final question -

Creme brulee is correct. Well done.

0:11:580:12:00

Which pudding is made by caramelising sugar

Dan, what would you like?

0:12:050:12:06

I will go with the pole screen, please.

0:12:060:12:09

-The pole screen. It's yours.

-Thank you very much.

0:12:090:12:12

Right, let's see where we stand at the end of Round 1.

0:12:120:12:15

Sue and Sharman, you have the vases, the medicine chest,

0:12:150:12:20

the spoons and the pen box.

0:12:200:12:23

Leon and Natasha, still to get your first item, but there's time.

0:12:230:12:28

Jim and Dan, you have the censer, the relic,

0:12:280:12:32

the pole screen and the dove.

0:12:320:12:35

Well done. Our teams have started to build their collections,

0:12:350:12:38

but before they have the chance to add to them,

0:12:380:12:40

Kate is going to give each pair a fact about a lot of their choice.

0:12:400:12:44

Now, these snippets of information should give you

0:12:440:12:47

vital clues about what it's worth,

0:12:470:12:49

so choose wisely.

0:12:490:12:51

You can choose one of yours

0:12:510:12:52

or one from somebody else's collection

0:12:520:12:55

or something that is still up for grabs on the grid.

0:12:550:12:57

Sharman, let's start with you.

0:12:570:12:59

Which lot would you like to hear about?

0:12:590:13:01

I'd like to hear about the censer, please, Kate.

0:13:010:13:03

The censer, which is in Jim and Dan's collection.

0:13:030:13:07

The censer, please, Kate.

0:13:070:13:08

Censers are any type of vessels made for burning incense,

0:13:080:13:13

and they can vary greatly in size, form and material.

0:13:130:13:18

This one is made of jade,

0:13:180:13:23

a hard stone that's been used for carving for centuries.

0:13:230:13:27

It's raised on paw feet with carved dragon ring handles.

0:13:270:13:32

And that should give you all the clues you need

0:13:330:13:36

to decide what it's worth.

0:13:360:13:38

Natasha, is there a lot in someone else's collection or on the grid

0:13:380:13:42

that you would like to hear more about?

0:13:420:13:45

Yes, I think I would like to hear more about the dove.

0:13:450:13:48

The dove, which is, again, in Jim and Dan's collection.

0:13:480:13:52

Well, this is a glass sculpture of a peace dove, as you can see,

0:13:520:13:57

-made by Waterford Crystal.

-Ah.

0:13:570:14:00

And this was made as a special commission

0:14:000:14:02

for a Nobel Peace Prize winner.

0:14:020:14:05

Very apt, and obviously some provenance there.

0:14:050:14:09

But this one isn't the actual one that was presented -

0:14:090:14:14

it's actually the reserve copy.

0:14:140:14:18

Hm. OK.

0:14:180:14:20

-Dan, your chance.

-I would like to know...

0:14:200:14:23

-..a little bit more about the sword, if I could, please.

-Certainly.

0:14:240:14:27

Kate, the sword.

0:14:270:14:29

This George III officer's sword is in cracking condition.

0:14:290:14:36

George III became King on 25 October 1760,

0:14:360:14:41

and his life and reign,

0:14:410:14:42

which were longer than any other British monarch before him,

0:14:420:14:46

were marked by a series of military conflicts.

0:14:460:14:50

Now, regular wars often mean an advancement in military technology,

0:14:500:14:56

and this sword represents just exactly that.

0:14:560:15:01

Well, now that you are all a bit more clued up on today's lots,

0:15:010:15:05

let's give you the chance to add more of them to your collections.

0:15:050:15:08

Bear in mind, though, that at the end of this round,

0:15:080:15:11

the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated.

0:15:110:15:14

Three more lots are available to each pair.

0:15:180:15:20

This time, pickers, you target a lot,

0:15:200:15:24

and, quizzers, you then try and secure it

0:15:240:15:26

by answering the question correctly.

0:15:260:15:28

But in this round, the lots come with their own question categories,

0:15:280:15:32

and here they are.

0:15:320:15:34

So, for example, if you want to target the jug,

0:15:340:15:37

I would offer you the chance

0:15:370:15:39

to answer a question on Indian Food or Definitions.

0:15:390:15:42

Sharman and Sue, you're up first, so, Sharman, what's your lot?

0:15:420:15:46

Well, I hope Sue doesn't mind, but I'm going to go for the sword.

0:15:460:15:51

The sword.

0:15:510:15:53

British Sitcoms or Definitions, Sue?

0:15:530:15:55

-Right, well, I'll try Definitions, please.

-Definitions.

0:15:550:15:59

Here's your question -

0:15:590:16:00

which English word can mean a layer of fat found on a whale

0:16:000:16:05

and to cry uncontrollably?

0:16:050:16:07

Blubber.

0:16:080:16:10

Is correct. Well done.

0:16:100:16:11

-Sharman, the sword is coming into your collection.

-Thank you.

0:16:110:16:16

Natasha, what would you like?

0:16:160:16:19

-I think I'm going to go with paintings.

-The paintings.

0:16:190:16:24

OK, Leon, British Sitcoms or Golf?

0:16:240:16:28

-British Sitcoms.

-OK.

0:16:280:16:30

Here's your question -

0:16:300:16:31

in Only Fools and Horses, what is the name of Del Boy's wife?

0:16:310:16:35

Margaret?

0:16:360:16:38

-Oh! It's Rachel.

-OK.

0:16:380:16:40

-And she used to love to pronounce it Raquel.

-Raquel. Oh.

0:16:400:16:44

The painting stays on the grid.

0:16:440:16:46

Dan, what would you like?

0:16:460:16:48

-I'd like the paintings, please.

-The paintings.

0:16:480:16:50

-OK, Jim, British Sitcoms or Golf?

-British Sitcoms, please, Fern.

0:16:500:16:53

British Sitcoms, it is.

0:16:530:16:55

Which character does James Corden play in the sitcom Gavin and Stacey?

0:16:550:17:00

Smithy.

0:17:000:17:02

Is correct. Well done. Dan, the paintings are yours.

0:17:020:17:05

-Thank you very much, Fern.

-There we go.

0:17:050:17:07

Sharman, what would you like?

0:17:070:17:09

-I think I'll have to go for the jug, please, Fern.

-The jug.

0:17:090:17:12

Sue, Indian Food or Definitions?

0:17:120:17:15

-I'll try Definitions again, please, Fern.

-Here we go.

0:17:150:17:18

In Cockney rhyming slang, what is a Ruby Murray?

0:17:180:17:21

Hurry?

0:17:250:17:27

-Incorrect.

-Oh.

-It is a curry.

0:17:270:17:29

-Oh, yes. Yes, of course.

-Going for a Ruby.

0:17:290:17:32

OK, the jug stays on the board.

0:17:320:17:35

Natasha, what would you like?

0:17:350:17:37

-I'd like the jug, please, Fern.

-The jug.

0:17:370:17:39

OK, Leon, Indian Food or Definitions?

0:17:390:17:41

-I'm going to go for Indian Food.

-Indian Food.

0:17:410:17:45

What pulse is used in the dish chana masala?

0:17:450:17:49

Ooh, dear Lord.

0:17:490:17:51

Erm, I'm going to say beans.

0:17:510:17:54

-Beans! Well, pulses are beans, but it's chickpeas.

-OK.

0:17:540:17:58

OK, the jug stays on the board.

0:17:580:18:00

Dan, what would you like?

0:18:000:18:02

-The jewellery, please, Fern.

-The jewellery.

0:18:020:18:04

OK, Jim, Politics or Definitions?

0:18:040:18:06

-It's going to have to be Politics, I think, Fern.

-Politics.

0:18:060:18:09

Who was elected as the first female Speaker

0:18:090:18:12

of the House of Commons in 1992?

0:18:120:18:14

Oh...

0:18:140:18:16

I am going to guess...June Green.

0:18:160:18:21

-Incorrect. Betty Boothroyd.

-I've got no idea.

0:18:210:18:24

-OK...

-No idea.

-..so the jug stays on the board.

0:18:240:18:27

OK, teams, your collections are growing.

0:18:270:18:30

So, have you missed out on that one item

0:18:300:18:33

you covet above all else?

0:18:330:18:35

Because, if so, here's your chance to secure it.

0:18:350:18:38

There is one last lot available to each team,

0:18:380:18:42

and this time you can either go for what's left on the grid

0:18:420:18:45

or you can try to steal an antique

0:18:450:18:48

that is in a rival team's collection.

0:18:480:18:50

But, pickers, be warned -

0:18:500:18:52

if you choose to steal from another team,

0:18:520:18:55

their quizzer will get to decide your quizzer's category.

0:18:550:18:59

Right, Sharman, do you want to target a lot from the grid

0:18:590:19:02

or have you got your eye on something in another collection?

0:19:020:19:04

I think I'm going to go for the censer, thank you.

0:19:040:19:07

The censer, in Jim and Dan's collection.

0:19:070:19:10

That means, Jim, you can choose

0:19:100:19:12

any of these categories to give Sue a question.

0:19:120:19:15

Yeah, sorry, Sue, but I think your rap music knowledge

0:19:150:19:17

is probably the least on there, so that's what I'm giving you.

0:19:170:19:20

Well, I'm not sure it's the least,

0:19:200:19:22

-but, you know, it's not good.

-Oh, we'll see.

0:19:220:19:24

OK. Here we go.

0:19:240:19:26

Shawn Corey Carter is the real name of which rapper?

0:19:260:19:29

I know I don't know that, so I'll just say...Eminem.

0:19:290:19:34

Ah. Jay-Z.

0:19:340:19:35

-Oh, right!

-So, well defended, Jim.

-I've heard of him.

0:19:350:19:38

The censer stays in your collection.

0:19:380:19:40

Natasha.

0:19:400:19:42

-I think I'd like to try for the censer, Fern.

-OK.

0:19:420:19:46

Jim, please think of a category that Leon might find difficult to answer.

0:19:460:19:51

I'm going to go for Golf, Leon. I don't know how your knowledge is on

0:19:510:19:54

-golf, but that's what I'm giving you.

-Yeah, I'll go for that.

0:19:540:19:57

-Golf. OK. Here we go.

-Hit me with it.

0:19:570:19:59

In the UK, which bird's name is used for the term of three under par?

0:19:590:20:06

Is that an eagle?

0:20:060:20:08

-Oh! It's an albatross.

-Oh, man.

0:20:080:20:12

You've successfully defended the censer, Jim. Well done.

0:20:120:20:15

Dan, what would you like to do?

0:20:150:20:17

-Probably go for jewellery again.

-The jewellery?

-Yes.

-OK.

0:20:170:20:20

Politics or Definitions, Jim?

0:20:200:20:22

-I'm going to go for Politics again, please, Fern.

-Politics.

0:20:220:20:24

I'm going to have a bash at that.

0:20:240:20:26

In May 2010, who became Chancellor of the Exchequer?

0:20:260:20:30

George Osborne.

0:20:300:20:31

Correct. The jewellery is yours.

0:20:310:20:35

OK, that's it for Round 2,

0:20:350:20:37

and for one team, it is the end of the road.

0:20:370:20:39

Now, at this stage it in the game,

0:20:390:20:41

I would usually go to Kate, who's been doing her sums

0:20:410:20:43

so she can tell us who has got the lowest value collection

0:20:430:20:46

and is therefore leaving the game.

0:20:460:20:48

But today, I think I might have already worked it out.

0:20:480:20:52

Leon and Natasha, it has been a pleasure to have you here.

0:20:520:20:55

-Thank you.

-I'm sorry we haven't got to know you better,

0:20:550:20:57

but thank you for playing For What It's Worth.

0:20:570:21:00

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

0:21:000:21:01

All right, I take full responsibility.

0:21:030:21:05

-I've got both hands up.

-No, we're a team.

0:21:050:21:06

Both hands up. It's all right.

0:21:060:21:08

He usually has a lot of knowledge when you need it.

0:21:080:21:11

Unfortunately, it didn't come out today when I needed it.

0:21:110:21:15

My money's on the girls.

0:21:150:21:17

Sue, definitely - she's very sharp.

0:21:170:21:19

Now, the unclaimed lots in the grid are also leaving the game,

0:21:230:21:26

so let's quickly find out from Kate what they were worth

0:21:260:21:29

and if the top lot is still in the game.

0:21:290:21:33

Kate.

0:21:330:21:34

Let's start with this jug.

0:21:340:21:37

There's some really lovely details -

0:21:370:21:39

little Rococo scrolls,

0:21:390:21:41

there's a pretty little inscription on it which is quite endearing,

0:21:410:21:44

and it's quite a weighty piece.

0:21:440:21:47

Look for the gilt interior - that's a real sign of quality.

0:21:470:21:51

They've gone to the bother of gilding the inside.

0:21:510:21:54

So, a nice thing, a good weight, it's 19th century.

0:21:540:21:58

Value...£150.

0:21:580:22:01

What else have we got?

0:22:010:22:02

Let's look at the camera.

0:22:040:22:05

It's called the Contarex, and it's made by Zeiss.

0:22:050:22:09

It dates from 1960 - that's when it hit the market,

0:22:090:22:14

but it's a very large case for it, isn't it?

0:22:140:22:17

And that's because it comes with 1,100 parts,

0:22:170:22:20

so it's a really complicated thing.

0:22:200:22:23

But there are some vintage cameras, if you like,

0:22:230:22:26

which are highly collectable.

0:22:260:22:29

Is this one of them?

0:22:290:22:30

The price tag today would be £250.

0:22:300:22:34

Hm.

0:22:340:22:35

Let's look at the military shell.

0:22:350:22:37

After the First World War, when this shell was used,

0:22:370:22:41

the Chinese Labour Corps were brought in

0:22:410:22:44

to basically clear the battlefields,

0:22:440:22:48

and it was a Chinese labourer that picked this up

0:22:480:22:51

and that's where the Chinese decoration comes from.

0:22:510:22:54

So, a really interesting piece of social history.

0:22:540:22:57

£300.

0:22:570:22:59

Wow.

0:22:590:23:00

It's gone. It's left the game. What else?

0:23:000:23:03

I was dying for you to ask me about the poster.

0:23:030:23:08

Who was Servais Le Roy?

0:23:080:23:11

Le Roy was a very important illusionist

0:23:110:23:15

who was working on stage in the early part of the 20th century.

0:23:150:23:20

You do see this poster coming up at auction fairly regularly,

0:23:200:23:24

but it's a much later copy.

0:23:240:23:27

But this one is a period one.

0:23:270:23:30

Therefore the price tag is £1,700.

0:23:300:23:36

Wow.

0:23:360:23:38

Well, unfortunately, that has gone out of the game.

0:23:380:23:41

So, this is the last lot to go - the trio of pretty little vases.

0:23:410:23:46

They shout Art Deco, do they not? That lovely fan shape.

0:23:460:23:51

The manufacturer is a firm called Bagley.

0:23:510:23:53

They were making pieces for the affordable market,

0:23:530:23:56

and that's exactly what this little trio is.

0:23:560:23:59

-Actually, it is our worthless lot today.

-Oh!

-Well done.

0:23:590:24:03

Well, well done.

0:24:030:24:05

You have avoided the bottom lot,

0:24:050:24:07

but more importantly,

0:24:070:24:10

the top lot is still in play.

0:24:100:24:13

So, just two pairs of contestants left.

0:24:130:24:15

Before we go any further,

0:24:150:24:16

Kate is going to give you another fact about a lot of your choice.

0:24:160:24:20

Sharman, what lot do you really need to know more about?

0:24:200:24:24

Probably the relic.

0:24:240:24:26

The relic, please, Kate.

0:24:260:24:29

Well, this is a relic of the standard taken from Richard III.

0:24:290:24:36

It's framed and glazed and has that provenance inscribed below it.

0:24:360:24:42

The Battle of Bosworth, or Bosworth Field,

0:24:420:24:45

was the last significant battle of the War of the Roses.

0:24:450:24:49

The Civil War between the Houses of Lancaster and York

0:24:490:24:53

that razed across England in the latter half of the 15th century.

0:24:530:24:58

Richard III, the last king of the House of York,

0:24:580:25:01

was killed in the battle.

0:25:010:25:03

But what of the value of the scrap of material?

0:25:030:25:08

We have no evidence to doubt the provenance,

0:25:080:25:13

so...what's it worth?

0:25:130:25:16

OK. Dan, what would you like to know more about?

0:25:160:25:19

More about our paintings, if I could, please?

0:25:190:25:21

Kate, the paintings.

0:25:210:25:23

This is a pair of paintings by Peter Cushing,

0:25:230:25:26

the famous British actor.

0:25:260:25:29

One is called Dartmouth Castle and the other Alfriston.

0:25:290:25:33

Now, Cushing was a major film star, of course,

0:25:330:25:36

on both sides of the Atlantic,

0:25:360:25:38

and is best known for the numerous roles in Hammer horror films

0:25:380:25:42

from the 1950s to the 1970s.

0:25:420:25:45

What is less well-known is that Cushing was an amateur artist.

0:25:450:25:50

These watercolours were gifted by Mr Cushing

0:25:500:25:52

to a friend he worked with

0:25:520:25:54

in the drawing office of Purley Council

0:25:540:25:57

between 1929 and 1930.

0:25:570:26:00

And that should be all the information you need

0:26:000:26:03

to make a judgment about what they're worth.

0:26:030:26:06

OK. Those are all the facts available to you,

0:26:060:26:09

so it's now time for our final round,

0:26:090:26:11

and at the end of it, we will have our winners.

0:26:110:26:13

I'm going to give the quizzers a category.

0:26:160:26:19

They then take turns to say answers in that category.

0:26:190:26:22

For example, if I say,

0:26:220:26:25

"Name me Alice in Wonderland characters,"

0:26:250:26:27

Jim, you might say, "The White Rabbit",

0:26:270:26:29

and then, Sue, you might say, "The Mad Hatter,"

0:26:290:26:32

and the Queen of Hearts and so on.

0:26:320:26:34

If you fail to give me an answer, if you repeat an answer

0:26:340:26:38

or if you give a wrong answer,

0:26:380:26:40

you lose that category,

0:26:400:26:41

and the opponent's picker will be able to steal

0:26:410:26:44

a lot from your collection.

0:26:440:26:47

Remember, it is the total value of your collections

0:26:470:26:49

that matter at the end of this round,

0:26:490:26:51

and one high-priced lot could be more valuable

0:26:510:26:54

than your opponent's entire collection.

0:26:540:26:57

There are three categories,

0:26:570:26:59

and the pair with the most valuable collection at this point go first,

0:26:590:27:02

so, Kate, who is that?

0:27:020:27:04

Well, Fern, I can reveal that

0:27:040:27:06

the team who currently has the most valuable collection...

0:27:060:27:10

-..is Dan and Jim.

-Ooh!

0:27:120:27:14

OK, Jim, you will start us off,

0:27:140:27:16

and the first category is...

0:27:160:27:18

We will only accept real people

0:27:240:27:27

rather than fictional characters or deities.

0:27:270:27:30

Jim, can I have an answer?

0:27:300:27:32

-Bob Dylan.

-Correct.

0:27:320:27:34

Sue.

0:27:340:27:35

Gandhi?

0:27:350:27:36

Sue...

0:27:370:27:39

that's incorrect.

0:27:390:27:41

They were going to put him on the original cover,

0:27:410:27:44

but decided against it

0:27:440:27:45

because they felt the album wouldn't sell well in India

0:27:450:27:49

if he was on the cover.

0:27:490:27:51

You could've had Diana Dors, Karl Marx, Mae West,

0:27:510:27:57

TE Lawrence, etc, etc.

0:27:570:27:59

Dan, what would you like from Sharman and Sue's collection?

0:27:590:28:03

The medicine chest, please.

0:28:030:28:06

-The medicine chest is yours.

-Thank you.

0:28:060:28:09

And there it goes in your collection.

0:28:090:28:10

Sue, it's your turn to go first now,

0:28:100:28:12

so let's look have a look at the category. It is...

0:28:120:28:15

We are only looking for people who have won since 1999,

0:28:170:28:21

when it ceased to be Man of the Year.

0:28:210:28:24

Sue, please may have an answer?

0:28:240:28:27

Erm, well, I'll go with Tony Blair.

0:28:270:28:30

Sue, that's incorrect.

0:28:310:28:33

Ah... Oh, dear.

0:28:330:28:35

But you could've had...

0:28:350:28:37

Barack Obama, Mark Zuckerberg,

0:28:370:28:41

Bill Gates or many others.

0:28:410:28:43

Dan! What would you like to take from Sue and Sharman's collection?

0:28:430:28:49

-I'm sorry...

-That's OK.

-..but it's going to have to be the sword.

0:28:490:28:52

That was very gentlemanly of you. Normally people go,

0:28:520:28:55

DAN AND JIM LAUGH "Right!"

0:28:550:28:57

-The sword is yours.

-Thank you.

0:28:570:29:01

Jim, this is the last category in this round, and it is...

0:29:010:29:06

We are looking for novels published by Stephen King under his own name.

0:29:090:29:14

Jim, can I have an answer?

0:29:140:29:15

The Shawshank Redemption, Fern.

0:29:150:29:17

Jim, that's incorrect.

0:29:180:29:21

It was a short story,

0:29:210:29:23

but, in any case, it was called

0:29:230:29:25

Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption.

0:29:250:29:29

-You could've had...

-Oh, there's so many.

0:29:290:29:30

..Salem's Lot, Christine, The Green Mile, etc.

0:29:300:29:36

-Well, Sharman...

-Oh!

0:29:360:29:39

..what would you like to pinch from Dan and Jim's collection?

0:29:390:29:42

Well, this is one of about three I don't know enough about,

0:29:420:29:47

but I'm going to go with what I thought in the first place -

0:29:470:29:51

the censer.

0:29:510:29:52

The censer.

0:29:520:29:53

OK, it's leaving Jim and Dan's collection,

0:29:530:29:56

and it's winging its way to you.

0:29:560:29:58

Let's see where we're standing at the end of that round.

0:29:580:30:01

Sue and Sharman, you have the vases, the spoons, the pen box

0:30:010:30:07

and you just stole the censer.

0:30:070:30:09

Jim and Dan, you have the dove, the medicine chest, the relic,

0:30:090:30:14

the pole screen, the paintings, the sword and the jewellery.

0:30:140:30:20

That's it. Your collections are now fixed

0:30:200:30:22

and will determine which team is victorious.

0:30:220:30:24

It's time to find out who are today's winners.

0:30:240:30:27

Kate, who's got the most valuable collection?

0:30:270:30:30

I can reveal, Fern, that the team with the most valuable collection

0:30:300:30:34

and, of course, the winners of today's show are...

0:30:340:30:37

-..Dan and Jim.

-Oh! Well done.

-Right on, man.

0:30:390:30:42

Oh, commiserations, Sharman and Sue.

0:30:420:30:46

You didn't create a valuable enough collection,

0:30:460:30:49

but before we say goodbye, we need to find out, don't we,

0:30:490:30:52

the value of the items that are leaving the game with you.

0:30:520:30:56

So, Kate, what did you make of their choices?

0:30:560:30:59

Well, Sharman, see, you've made some great choices along the way.

0:30:590:31:02

A few things have slipped through your fingers, sadly.

0:31:020:31:06

But let's have a look - let's go with the pen box first.

0:31:060:31:09

Now, the pencil case,

0:31:090:31:10

the modern-day pencil case, as we know it,

0:31:100:31:13

really emerged in the 1940s -

0:31:130:31:15

this is the Victorian equivalent, if you like.

0:31:150:31:18

Overlaid with silver, of course, in beautiful leafage scrolls,

0:31:180:31:22

which helps to give it a value of £350.

0:31:220:31:25

Good heavens.

0:31:250:31:27

So, next we have the spoons.

0:31:270:31:29

You did very well to bag these.

0:31:290:31:32

I LOVE the spoons - these are really my sort of thing.

0:31:320:31:36

And, Jim, you noticed the hammered decoration on them,

0:31:360:31:40

and this is representative of exactly what they are.

0:31:400:31:44

They are typical of the Arts and Crafts movement.

0:31:440:31:47

They also have a big name associated with them,

0:31:470:31:50

and that is Archibald Knox,

0:31:500:31:53

who designed them for Liberty in 1900.

0:31:530:31:57

And Knox was very much concerned with Celtic motifs,

0:31:570:32:01

which you can see in these gorgeous strapwork handles,

0:32:010:32:05

and the pair have a value of £500.

0:32:050:32:09

-Wow.

-Oh, gosh, that's lovely.

-Lovely.

0:32:090:32:12

Next we have your pair of vases.

0:32:120:32:14

Now, these to me are

0:32:140:32:16

really representative of a traditional antique.

0:32:160:32:19

There they are - they're hand-painted flowers,

0:32:190:32:22

they're Royal Crown Derby,

0:32:220:32:25

in great condition, and, of course, we do have the pair.

0:32:250:32:29

Now, Royal Crown Derby has a very loyal following,

0:32:290:32:32

and the pair would command £800.

0:32:320:32:37

Good again. Lovely.

0:32:370:32:38

Next we have the censer.

0:32:380:32:40

Sharman, you really liked this, didn't you?

0:32:400:32:43

Well, it was a punt, really.

0:32:430:32:45

-Well, I think you heard the word jade...

-Hm...

0:32:450:32:48

..and that made you have a really good punt,

0:32:480:32:50

and you really fought for this,

0:32:500:32:53

but there's jade and there's jade.

0:32:530:32:56

The most highly prized is known as spinach jade,

0:32:560:32:59

which has a beautiful translucent green.

0:32:590:33:03

This is a bit muddy, perhaps, in colour.

0:33:030:33:06

You've got the mottled vein of browns going through it.

0:33:060:33:09

The carving isn't brilliant quality, but it is 19th-century,

0:33:090:33:13

and you noticed, yes, it's got some damage -

0:33:130:33:16

the lid has a big crack through it on the top.

0:33:160:33:19

So, the value, actually, of the censer is just £50.

0:33:190:33:24

-Oh!

-£50! SHARMAN AND SUE CHUCKLE

0:33:240:33:26

So, the total value of Sharman and Sue's collection is...

0:33:270:33:33

£1,700.

0:33:330:33:35

-Thank you.

-Well done. Not bad.

0:33:350:33:38

So, Sharman and Sue, it is time

0:33:380:33:40

to bring the hammer down on your collection

0:33:400:33:42

and to say thank you so much for playing For What It's Worth.

0:33:420:33:45

Thank you.

0:33:450:33:46

Oh, Sue did incredibly well.

0:33:480:33:50

I mean, I could never have done a lot of the answers that you did -

0:33:500:33:55

it would've been impossible for me.

0:33:550:33:57

So, yeah, well done.

0:33:570:33:59

That's right - we each did our bit.

0:33:590:34:01

It was a difficult thing to call,

0:34:010:34:04

and I respect anything that she chose.

0:34:040:34:06

Well done, Dan and Jim -

0:34:090:34:11

you've built the most valuable collection.

0:34:110:34:13

You are today's winner,

0:34:130:34:14

and now all that remains is for you to claim your prize.

0:34:140:34:18

All you have to do is pick a lot from your collection,

0:34:180:34:21

and we will give you its value in cash.

0:34:210:34:24

Now, as you will have deduced,

0:34:240:34:26

that top lot is hiding somewhere in your collection.

0:34:260:34:30

Have a chat and decide which one you'd like to choose.

0:34:300:34:34

My instinct's going probably with the sword.

0:34:340:34:37

I don't know why.

0:34:370:34:39

I think we both like that. I both quite like militaria.

0:34:390:34:41

That's something I would like to own.

0:34:410:34:43

But then...I like history as well,

0:34:430:34:45

and the relic, that really interests, that really interests me.

0:34:450:34:48

-The pole screen - is that significant? No?

-Yeah, but...

0:34:480:34:51

-The dove?

-Oh, yeah...

0:34:510:34:53

Handmade bottles in the medicine chest?

0:34:530:34:55

-We'll got with the sword if you're happy...

-Go with the sword.

0:34:560:34:59

-Or the relic, mate.

-The sword.

-Flip a coin.

0:34:590:35:01

The sword. The sword.

0:35:010:35:02

So, just to confirm, you are choosing...

0:35:020:35:05

-The sword.

-The sword.

0:35:050:35:07

Before we tell you what it's worth,

0:35:070:35:10

Kate, can you please tell us

0:35:100:35:12

the value of the lots they have rejected.

0:35:120:35:15

Let's look at the pole screen first.

0:35:150:35:17

I mean, this is a really lovely beautifully carved thing, isn't it?

0:35:170:35:22

And did you see those feet? Those gorgeous paw feet.

0:35:220:35:26

But pole screens, of course, were made to shield ladies' faces

0:35:260:35:30

from the hot fire so they didn't turn pink.

0:35:300:35:33

Not very fashionable today.

0:35:330:35:35

Price tag - £65.

0:35:350:35:37

Oh. Well rejected.

0:35:370:35:40

Next, we have the medicine chest.

0:35:400:35:42

It's a gorgeous piece of 19th-century mahogany,

0:35:420:35:46

and this, of course, was made for travelling.

0:35:460:35:48

It would've had potions and medicines inside those bottles.

0:35:480:35:53

Again, it has gone down in value in recent years.

0:35:530:35:57

£100 would be today's price tag.

0:35:570:36:00

-Goodness me.

-That's good, that's good.

0:36:000:36:02

Now, the jewellery. Is it gold?

0:36:020:36:05

Dan, could it be gold?

0:36:050:36:07

You were you a umming and ahing there.

0:36:070:36:09

But if you had a close look at the back,

0:36:090:36:11

you would see the word sterling,

0:36:110:36:14

and that denotes the fact that it is sterling silver and gilded,

0:36:140:36:19

so it's silver-gilt.

0:36:190:36:21

It's combined with beautiful enamelwork,

0:36:210:36:24

which, of course, Norwegian jewellers were very good at,

0:36:240:36:28

and this jeweller in particular was very, very good at.

0:36:280:36:32

Her name is Greta Kittelsen,

0:36:320:36:35

and this jewellery dates from 1953.

0:36:350:36:39

It's typical of mid-century Norwegian jewellery,

0:36:390:36:42

which is going really well at the moment,

0:36:420:36:44

and this little brooch and earrings would have a hammer price of £400.

0:36:440:36:50

-We don't mind that, do we?

-Not too bad.

0:36:500:36:51

-No, we'll take that.

-Not too bad.

-That's OK at the moment.

0:36:510:36:54

What's next?

0:36:540:36:55

So, next we come to this little pair of watercolours.

0:36:550:36:58

Well, I have to tell you that the amateur watercolour market

0:36:580:37:01

is struggling at the moment.

0:37:010:37:04

I think these are actually quite pretty.

0:37:040:37:06

What would they make with the Cushing element, though?

0:37:060:37:11

Because, of course, we have the famous actor.

0:37:110:37:14

With that Cushing factor...

0:37:140:37:16

..£600.

0:37:170:37:19

-But that's OK.

-That's OK, yeah.

-What's next?

0:37:190:37:23

Well, on we go to the glass dove.

0:37:230:37:26

It's relatively modern, but it is very decorative.

0:37:260:37:30

It has association with the Nobel Peace Prize, of course,

0:37:300:37:34

but it wasn't the piece that was presented -

0:37:340:37:36

it was the piece in reserve.

0:37:360:37:38

£700.

0:37:390:37:42

-Phew!

-Phwoar.

0:37:420:37:45

So, the last piece you have rejected is the relic.

0:37:450:37:48

We're talking about a date of 1485,

0:37:480:37:51

and if you look closely, you could see the traces of yellow on the flag

0:37:510:37:55

just beginning to peel there.

0:37:550:37:57

So, it's 15th-century, it has that incredible provenance,

0:37:570:38:02

it was on the battlefield at the time,

0:38:020:38:05

and for historians, for lovers of Richard III

0:38:050:38:09

and all the Royal-associated memorabilia,

0:38:090:38:11

this is a fantastic piece.

0:38:110:38:14

It's spine-tinglingly good,

0:38:140:38:17

-and it has a price tag of £2,500...

-Oh!

0:38:170:38:21

-..and is our top lot today.

-Oh!

0:38:210:38:24

Your instincts were so good - you just couldn't decide.

0:38:250:38:29

We almost got it.

0:38:290:38:31

But, Dan and Jim, why don't you come and join me

0:38:310:38:35

to take a closer look at your chosen lot, the sword,

0:38:350:38:39

and also see if we can tempt you with our Mystery Lot,

0:38:390:38:43

which may be worth more?

0:38:430:38:44

Now, we know that the top lot has gone,

0:38:470:38:49

but you may still be confident that

0:38:490:38:51

you have chosen something of high value here.

0:38:510:38:55

But before we tell you what the value is,

0:38:550:38:58

we are going to tempt you with our Mystery Lot.

0:38:580:39:01

-Are you excited, boys?

-Absolutely.

-We are. Very.

0:39:010:39:04

OK.

0:39:040:39:06

Oh, wow.

0:39:060:39:07

The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck.

0:39:070:39:10

It's a children's book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter.

0:39:100:39:14

It was first published by Frederick Warne & Co in July 1908.

0:39:140:39:20

Now, Potter composed the book at Hill Top,

0:39:200:39:23

a working farm in the Lake District which she bought in 1905.

0:39:230:39:28

Jemima Puddle-Duck was the first of her books set wholly at the farm,

0:39:280:39:34

with background illustrations based on the farm buildings and yard

0:39:340:39:38

and nearby localities.

0:39:380:39:41

-This one is a first edition.

-Ooh.

0:39:410:39:45

So, all that is left for you to decide

0:39:450:39:48

is whether to stick with the sword

0:39:480:39:51

or dump it in favour of today's Mystery Lot,

0:39:510:39:54

this first edition Jemima Puddle-Duck story

0:39:540:39:58

by Beatrix Potter.

0:39:580:40:00

-It's got to be worth something, absolutely.

-Got to be.

0:40:000:40:03

-But...

-Is it worth more than the sword?

-First edition books...

0:40:030:40:05

First editions are always worth... That's Beatrix Potter.

0:40:050:40:08

Super popular at the moment. Film came out not that long ago.

0:40:080:40:11

I'm going to stick with the sword.

0:40:120:40:14

-Do you both feel the same way?

-No, I'm going to go with him -

0:40:150:40:17

I'm happy to go with Dan's choice.

0:40:170:40:19

We said this at the start - if we got down to this point,

0:40:190:40:21

Dan would make the call...and he has, so...

0:40:210:40:24

And you think he's made the right call?

0:40:240:40:25

I hope he has. I hope he has.

0:40:250:40:28

Ooh! OK. That's it. You are going for the sword.

0:40:280:40:32

That means you have won its worth in cold, hard cash.

0:40:320:40:36

So, now Kate is going to tell you

0:40:360:40:38

the value of this beautiful little book.

0:40:380:40:41

-You struggled, boys, didn't you?

-We did, didn't we?

0:40:410:40:43

Let me tell you, with first editions,

0:40:430:40:47

of course, it's all about condition -

0:40:470:40:50

that is a huge factor.

0:40:500:40:52

We've got a lovely little leather spine here

0:40:520:40:54

with gilt lettering down it, all in really nice order.

0:40:540:40:57

Little leather corners to the front.

0:40:570:41:01

It was one in a series.

0:41:010:41:03

The fact that it was the first set on the farm

0:41:040:41:07

doesn't really add a huge amount of value,

0:41:070:41:10

and quite a few of them were produced for the first edition,

0:41:100:41:14

which gives a hammer price...

0:41:140:41:16

-..of £495.

-Oh!

0:41:180:41:20

That's all right.

0:41:210:41:22

That's got to be worth more than 495 quid.

0:41:220:41:25

Feeling a little bit more comfortable about the sword?

0:41:250:41:28

-Yeah.

-Yeah, yeah.

-OK, look, fingers crossed.

0:41:280:41:31

Kate, could you please reveal the value of this lot, the sword,

0:41:310:41:35

that the boys have stuck with all the way?

0:41:350:41:38

Well, we know it's a George III officer's sword,

0:41:400:41:43

we know it's in cracking condition.

0:41:430:41:45

You're quite right - look at the beautiful detail on the blade.

0:41:450:41:50

But the crucial thing is -

0:41:500:41:52

where does it fit in to the history of swords?

0:41:520:41:56

And, actually, the history of swords begins with the George III period.

0:41:560:42:00

Very rare at auction.

0:42:020:42:05

Highly sought-after, because it is the first, really, of its type...

0:42:050:42:09

..and I know several militaria collectors

0:42:100:42:13

who would die to have this.

0:42:130:42:15

The hammer price of the sword...

0:42:150:42:17

is £1,000.

0:42:170:42:19

-Well done.

-Oh, well done.

0:42:190:42:21

-That's all right, isn't it?

-Well done.

0:42:210:42:23

-Well done, mate. Excellent news.

-Fantastic.

0:42:230:42:25

-Are you happy with that?

-Yeah, absolutely.

-I should think so.

0:42:250:42:28

You've played the game really well, stuck to your guns,

0:42:280:42:32

built a fantastic collection,

0:42:320:42:35

and you're going home with £1,000.

0:42:350:42:38

Absolutely fantastic.

0:42:380:42:40

-Kate, thank you so much.

-My pleasure.

0:42:400:42:42

You've been amazing, as always.

0:42:420:42:44

Your expertise, your knowledge is incredible.

0:42:440:42:47

And thank you very much indeed for watching us.

0:42:470:42:50

We look forward very much to seeing you next time

0:42:500:42:52

when more teams will be playing For What It's Worth.

0:42:520:42:55

We'll see you then. Goodbye.

0:42:550:42:56

-Well, congratulations. Well done.

-Thank you very much.

0:42:560:43:01

-I've never won anything in my 30 years.

-I'm happy for you, mate.

0:43:040:43:07

-I'm happy for you.

-Thank you, thank you.

0:43:070:43:08

To go for the sword was a great move,

0:43:080:43:10

cos I would've, potentially, had we not agreed beforehand,

0:43:100:43:13

-gone with the book, so...

-Yeah.

0:43:130:43:14

-You know, you've done your research. Well done, mate.

-No probs.
