0:00:13 > 0:00:15APPLAUSE
0:00:17 > 0:00:19Hello, and welcome to For What It's Worth.
0:00:19 > 0:00:23It's the show that combines quizzing with our curiosity for antiques.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26We have three pairs of contestants who are ready to play.
0:00:26 > 0:00:27Each team has a quizzer,
0:00:27 > 0:00:31who has to answer a general knowledge question correctly so that their
0:00:31 > 0:00:32partner, the picker,
0:00:32 > 0:00:37has a chance to choose an antique or collectable and build a collection.
0:00:37 > 0:00:41So the aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43And every day, I'm joined by an expert in the field,
0:00:43 > 0:00:45and today is no exception.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Like a Queen Anne chair, she's upright and elegant,
0:00:49 > 0:00:50and has fabulous legs.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Would you please welcome Natasha Raskin?
0:00:53 > 0:00:55APPLAUSE
0:00:58 > 0:01:00- Lovely to see you. - That's quite an introduction.
0:01:00 > 0:01:02- Did you like that? - I did, I loved that.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05I'll use that again, thank you very much.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07Are you ready for a good game today?
0:01:07 > 0:01:08I am, I am ready.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10I just have a good feeling about today.
0:01:10 > 0:01:14Great antiques, and after such an intro, I'd better live up to it.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Well, we have a dozen of these wonderful antiques and collectables behind you.
0:01:17 > 0:01:18And, Natasha,
0:01:18 > 0:01:21would you please tell us what lots we're playing for today?
0:01:21 > 0:01:25Yes, teams, for your consideration today, we have...
0:01:27 > 0:01:29..a model ship...
0:01:29 > 0:01:31a fossil...
0:01:31 > 0:01:32a bike...
0:01:32 > 0:01:35a dog collar...
0:01:35 > 0:01:37a stamp case...
0:01:37 > 0:01:39a cocktail shaker...
0:01:39 > 0:01:40a sundial...
0:01:40 > 0:01:42an oil painting...
0:01:42 > 0:01:45a cigarette case...
0:01:45 > 0:01:46a book...
0:01:46 > 0:01:48a necklace...
0:01:48 > 0:01:49and a clock.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Now, one of these items is our top lot,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57which is worth a whopping £2,500.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00That is the lot to spot, because at the end of the show,
0:02:00 > 0:02:03the winning pair will not walk away with that antique,
0:02:03 > 0:02:07but they will walk away with the cash equivalent of one of their items.
0:02:07 > 0:02:12But beware, because the lots decrease in value right down to our worthless
0:02:12 > 0:02:15lot, which is about £10 or less.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18And that, obviously, is the lot to avoid.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21So who's playing today? Let's meet our teams.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Welcome, team one, who are you?
0:02:23 > 0:02:27I'm Graham, and this is my friend Ian.
0:02:27 > 0:02:32I'm Ian. We met as teachers in 1978, and Graham was my boss.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Really? Who's the boss today, then?
0:02:34 > 0:02:36- Me. - LAUGHTER
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Old habits die hard?
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Welcome, team two, who are you?
0:02:40 > 0:02:44Hello, Fern, my name's Leslie, this is my lovely wife, Susan.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Hello, Fern, I'm Susan.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Before retiring to the beautiful Herefordshire countryside,
0:02:49 > 0:02:54we worked together in our own furniture manufacturing business.
0:02:54 > 0:02:55And, team three, welcome.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58- Who are you?- Hello, Fern, I'm James, this is my grandma, Alison,
0:02:58 > 0:03:02and I'm from a town called Hinckley in Leicestershire.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Hello, Fern, I'm Alison.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06I'm with my grandson, James.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09And I'm also from Hinckley in Leicestershire.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Well, I wish all three teams lots of luck.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14And let's get a game going.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Now, earlier, our teams got to inspect our lots,
0:03:17 > 0:03:21but they didn't know they were being watched over by our expert.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25Could the teams separate gems from the junk?
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Let's see.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30Oh.
0:03:30 > 0:03:31- Ooh.- Ah.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37I would have thought that was late Victorian.
0:03:37 > 0:03:381850, something like that.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40I don't really know much about clocks.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43- An impressive piece. That's nice. - Very nice.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Oh, it's an old bicycle.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48Still got the bicycle pump on.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52Could be a First World War, or 1920s, '30s, a little bit later.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54They haven't noticed that it folds.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58- Not many people collect bikes, do they?- No.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00- I don't know whether I like that or not.- No.
0:04:00 > 0:04:01It isn't signed, is it?
0:04:01 > 0:04:05If it was worth a lot, it would be still in its original frame,
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- I think.- And they're right, it's not the original one.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10But what does that mean?
0:04:10 > 0:04:12- Oh, look.- This is really cool.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15That, I wouldn't think, is worth very much, to be honest.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17- First published in 1890. - Oh, wow.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21Do you know anything about diamonds?
0:04:21 > 0:04:22I know my wife likes them.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25It could be white gold or platinum with diamonds.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27It's paste.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30- Could it be paste? - Couple of cynics here.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33- It's a fossil.- Yes, yes, ammonite, isn't it?
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- You'd see that in a car boot. - Don't call me a fossil.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41- What do you think it's made out of? - Would it be...
0:04:41 > 0:04:44- brass, do you think? - I wouldn't think it's gold.
0:04:44 > 0:04:48It's not gold, according to Graham.
0:04:48 > 0:04:49Cocktail shaker.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51I think that is solid silver.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55I think the anchor, I think that's when it's made in Birmingham.
0:04:55 > 0:04:56Nice work.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58- Well, it's Art Deco. - A few hundred pounds?
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- Could be.- Well, you could buy that in IKEA or somewhere.
0:05:04 > 0:05:05The Water Babies.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Got to find out if it's a first edition.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Two teachers intrigued by a book.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Notice if it's done with gold leaf, look, around it.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15That's not the Titanic, is it?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Oh, no, Queen Mary. Three red funnels.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Is it British?- I don't know if it would go in water, though.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- It would have rusted by now. - It is an actual dog collar.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- It is a dog collar. Yeah.- I suppose it's not hard to figure that out.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31- I don't think any dog would enjoy wearing that much.- No.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33It says it's a sundial, but it looks like a compass.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35I don't think I've ever seen anything like that before.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38- That's very old. - This would date to 17-something.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44- I'll be quite honest, there's a few I haven't got a Scooby-Doo about. - Top lot, I think, is the clock.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47The clock looks a very good possibility.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50- I like the bike, actually. - And if think the ammonite...
0:05:50 > 0:05:52The ammonite is the least expensive.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- I've dug them up in my garden. - Possibly the tin ship.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- I don't like the collar. - The dog collar.- No.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02- Yeah, that wasn't as easy as one expected.- No, it wasn't. It wasn't.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Natasha, what do you think of that?
0:06:06 > 0:06:08I loved watching it. I can't believe that none of you knew.
0:06:08 > 0:06:12I felt so sneaky. Watching it was horrible, but so fun at the same time.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15And do you know, all of you were completely different.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Some of you approached it by, "How much is this going to be worth?"
0:06:17 > 0:06:20And some of you just whether you liked it or not.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24- So it'll be interesting to see how this plays out.- Absolutely, and everybody always asks,
0:06:24 > 0:06:28- "How do we arrive at the valuation of the lots?"- Well, it's a joint decision.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32The valuations have been agreed between myself and an independent valuer,
0:06:32 > 0:06:35and they're based on the hammer price that we would expect them to
0:06:35 > 0:06:38achieve at auction, but with no auction costs added.
0:06:38 > 0:06:43OK. And just to add an extra twist, we have our mystery lot.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Now, that could be worth thousands of pounds,
0:06:45 > 0:06:47or it could be worth just peanuts.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51But that is for our winners to decide a little bit later.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53But now, it's time for round one.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00I'm going to ask eight general knowledge questions.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Pickers, before each one,
0:07:02 > 0:07:06I'll ask you to select which lot you would like to play for, and, quizzers,
0:07:06 > 0:07:08if you buzz in with the correct answer,
0:07:08 > 0:07:11you will get to add that to your collection.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14But beware, because if you buzz in incorrectly,
0:07:14 > 0:07:16you'll be frozen out of the next question.
0:07:16 > 0:07:20All clear? Pickers, please make your first pick.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Let's see what you've chosen.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Graham and Ian have gone for the clock.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Susan and Leslie have gone for the clock.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34James and Alison have gone for the painting.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36So, quizzers, fingers on buzzers.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38Question number one, here we go.
0:07:38 > 0:07:42In which decade did Neil Armstrong become the first man to set foot...?
0:07:42 > 0:07:43- Ian?- '60s.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47In which decade did Neil Armstrong become the first man to set foot on the moon?
0:07:47 > 0:07:48It is the 1960s.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51Correct, well done, the clock is in your collection.
0:07:51 > 0:07:55OK. Pickers, would you like to pick another lot, please?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Ian and Graham have gone for the book,
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Susan and Leslie have gone for the stamp case,
0:08:01 > 0:08:05and James and Alison have gone for the book as well.
0:08:05 > 0:08:09Question number two. Which punctuation mark is used to indicate the
0:08:09 > 0:08:10possession of something?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14- Yes, James?- Colon?
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Oh, incorrect, it's apostrophe.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19That means you are frozen out of the next round.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24You do not get to pick anything, and the book goes back on the grid.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Graham and Leslie, please make a pick.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Both gone for the book.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31OK. Question three.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32In the 1920s,
0:08:32 > 0:08:36a competition was famously created in which sport by Samuel Ryder?
0:08:38 > 0:08:39- Yes, Ian?- Golf.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Correct, the book is yours.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43OK, everyone's back in play again.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45So, pickers, choose a lot.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Ian and Graham, you have gone for the sundial,
0:08:50 > 0:08:55Susan and Leslie for the necklace, and James and Alison the stamp case.
0:08:55 > 0:08:56Question four, quizzers.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58In 2005,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Tom Cruise jumped up and down on the sofa of which US talk-show host?
0:09:01 > 0:09:03- Yes, Ian?- Oprah Winfrey?
0:09:03 > 0:09:07It was. The talk show host was Oprah Winfrey, well done.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09The sundial is yours.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11OK. Pickers, make a pick.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Ian and Graham have gone for the cocktail shaker.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Susan and Leslie sticking with the necklace.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20James and Alison have gone for the bike.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Here is the question, quizzers.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26The name of which colour is derived from Old French and means
0:09:26 > 0:09:28"Turkish stone"?
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- Yes, Susan?- Turquoise?
0:09:30 > 0:09:32It is turquoise. The necklace is yours.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Well done.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Pickers, pick another choice.
0:09:38 > 0:09:40Ian and Graham have gone for the oil painting,
0:09:40 > 0:09:43But Susan and Leslie have gone for the oil painting.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46James and Alison, however, have gone for the oil painting.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Here's the question for the quizzers.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52The Great Barrier Reef lies off the coast of which Australian...?
0:09:52 > 0:09:54- Yes, Ian?- Queensland.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58The Great Barrier Reef lies off the coast of which Australian state?
0:09:58 > 0:09:59It is Queensland.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01The painting is yours.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Ian, very good.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Are you pleased with him, Graham, so far?- Very good, and keep this up.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Yeah, it's a fluke. It's a fluke.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Well, it might be. We don't know, do we? OK, here we go, then.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14This is the penultimate pick, pickers.
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Ian and Graham have gone for the bike,
0:10:18 > 0:10:20Susan and Leslie for the stamp case,
0:10:20 > 0:10:23James and Alison for the stamp case.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Question seven. Which device with a magnetic needle is used to aid
0:10:26 > 0:10:27navigation...? James?
0:10:27 > 0:10:32- Compass.- Which device with a magnetic needle is used to aid navigation in
0:10:32 > 0:10:34orienteering? It is the compass.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Well done. James and Alison, you're off the blocks,
0:10:36 > 0:10:39you've got the stamp case.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42And this is the final question in this round.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44Pickers, make your pick.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Ian and Graham have gone still with the cocktail shaker,
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Susan and Leslie like the look of the cocktail shaker.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54James and Alison have gone for the bike.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Here's the question. Traditionally,
0:10:57 > 0:11:02a salade nicoise is made from tuna and which other small fish?
0:11:02 > 0:11:03- Yes, Susan?- Anchovies?
0:11:03 > 0:11:06Get in! Yes, it is anchovies.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08The cocktail shaker is yours.
0:11:08 > 0:11:12So at the end of round one, let's see who's got what.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16Ian and Graham have the clock, the sundial, the oil painting
0:11:16 > 0:11:17and the book.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21Susan and Leslie have the necklace and the cocktail shaker.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24And James and Alison, you have the stamp case.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Well done. Well, our teams have started to build their collections,
0:11:27 > 0:11:30but have they chosen wisely?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Before they have the chance to add more of them,
0:11:32 > 0:11:37Natasha is going to give each pair a fact about a lot of their choice,
0:11:37 > 0:11:40which should give them everything they need to know to make a valuation.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43So, team one, tell me a bit more about yourselves, Ian and Graham,
0:11:43 > 0:11:47because you both have a big interest in Cornish pottery, I think,
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- don't you?- Yes.- Yes, yes.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52I was interested in Troika pottery for many, many years.
0:11:52 > 0:11:56I thought it was incredible stuff. It was so different and so unusual.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58That's sort of like the slabs that are put together, isn't it?
0:11:58 > 0:12:02- Yeah.- And then something called Lipper, Leper?
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- Leaper.- Leaper.- Leaper.- What's that? - Well, again, it's Cornish pottery.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08It's quite an unknown potter.
0:12:08 > 0:12:14And I went into Ian's class on one occasion and he had some Troika there.
0:12:14 > 0:12:20And he also had a manual from an exhibition, which identified Leaper.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22And I just said out of the blue,
0:12:22 > 0:12:25"I'm going to collect Leaper," and it just grew from there.
0:12:25 > 0:12:30OK. What would you like to hear more about? It could be in your collection, anyone's collection,
0:12:30 > 0:12:35- or still on the board.- I think I'd like to know more about the book.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- Natasha, the book? - This is a first edition,
0:12:38 > 0:12:42first issue copy of a classic children's book,
0:12:42 > 0:12:44The Water Babies by Charles Kingsley.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47It was first published in 1863.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50This copy still has its original green cloth,
0:12:50 > 0:12:54although it has been re-backed using the original spine,
0:12:54 > 0:12:57suggesting that the covers or spine were once loose.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00However, with some uncut pages,
0:13:00 > 0:13:04believe it or not, this copy may never even have been read.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06Goodness me.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Susan and Leslie, tell me more about your furniture designing.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12What sort of style were you making?
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Well, I was more of, perhaps, a maker than a furniture designer.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18But I did a three-year degree course at the London College of Furniture.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21In the late '60s, early '70s.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24And in the last eight years of my working life,
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Susan and I had our own factory,
0:13:26 > 0:13:29where we were making pine and painted furniture.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33OK. What lot would you like to hear more about?
0:13:33 > 0:13:36I'd like to hear more about the sundial.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40The sundial, yeah, interesting. It's like a pocket one, isn't it?
0:13:40 > 0:13:44That's what we have here, a pocket sundial, and compass as well,
0:13:44 > 0:13:45which you all spotted.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47It dates from the early 18th century,
0:13:47 > 0:13:50and it's actually of European origin.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54Now, pocket sundials would have been popular around this time as they were cheap,
0:13:54 > 0:13:56and it was an easy way to tell the time.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59And much more cost-effective than buying a clock,
0:13:59 > 0:14:03which at the time would have been comparatively very expensive.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06This piece has a glass-covered circular compass,
0:14:06 > 0:14:09which is protected by the surrounding brass body.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12I think a few of you were wondering what it was made of.
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Now, the item is in decent condition, considering its age,
0:14:16 > 0:14:18and still has its original case.
0:14:18 > 0:14:21The question is, will it lead you to success?
0:14:21 > 0:14:23Team three, welcome.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26So, Alison, James is the model grandson, would you say?
0:14:26 > 0:14:29He's an absolutely wonderful grandson.
0:14:29 > 0:14:33And so are all my other four grandchildren, and I've got to say that,
0:14:33 > 0:14:35haven't I?
0:14:35 > 0:14:38And I hear he brings you cake and flowers.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41- He does. He's very considerate. - James, I am almost a grandmother.
0:14:41 > 0:14:46- Have you brought me anything? - No, not today, Fern.- I was getting to like you.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49It's gone now. Right, what would you like to hear more about?
0:14:49 > 0:14:54I'd like to hear more about the model ship, please, the Queen Mary model toy.
0:14:54 > 0:15:00- Yes.- It's a tin plate clockwork toy of the famous ship the Queen Mary,
0:15:00 > 0:15:04that sailed from 1936 to 1967.
0:15:04 > 0:15:08Now, the toy is quite small at just over 30 centimetres in length.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10It has a hollow body - I'm sure you gave it a tap -
0:15:10 > 0:15:14and a basic mechanism to propel the boat forward.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17But the paint is chipping. It looks a little worn.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21And anyone who wanted to play with it these days would struggle,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24as the key is missing from the wind-up mechanism.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25So it's not set to go.
0:15:25 > 0:15:31But the toy's history may tempt you to sail away with this lot.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34OK, it's time to play round two.
0:15:34 > 0:15:35APPLAUSE
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Now, in this round, the pickers will select a lot to play for,
0:15:40 > 0:15:44and the quizzers will, again, try and secure it by answering correctly.
0:15:44 > 0:15:48But this time around, the lots come with their own question categories.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Let's have a look at those categories.
0:15:50 > 0:15:54So for example, if you wanted to go for the bike,
0:15:54 > 0:15:58you could choose between football and outer space questions.
0:15:58 > 0:16:00OK? At the end of this round,
0:16:00 > 0:16:04the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06So choose as wisely as possible.
0:16:06 > 0:16:11Team one, you are up first, so, Graham, pick a lot for me.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- The bike.- The bike, OK.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Well, Ian, football or outer space?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- Outer space.- Outer space, here we go.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22What was the nationality of the first woman in space?
0:16:22 > 0:16:26- Russian.- Yes, the bike is yours, well done.
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Susan and Leslie. Leslie, would you like to pick?
0:16:31 > 0:16:32I'll have the cigarette case, please.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36Cigarette case. Susan, British art or rivers?
0:16:36 > 0:16:40- British art, please. - British art, here we go.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44Thomas Gainsborough is famous for a painting featuring a boy dressed in
0:16:44 > 0:16:45- which colour?- Blue.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47It is blue. The famous Blue Boy.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51So the cigarette case is coming into your collection.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Very good. James and Alison.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Alison, this is your turn to pick, what would you like?
0:16:56 > 0:17:00- I've got to go with the ship, haven't I?- The model ship, absolutely.
0:17:00 > 0:17:01James, football or rivers?
0:17:01 > 0:17:03- Definitely football.- Football, good.
0:17:03 > 0:17:08Here we go. Which English footballer of the mid 20th century was know as
0:17:08 > 0:17:10"The Wizard of the Dribble?"
0:17:10 > 0:17:14- George Best? - Oh, Sir Stanley Matthews.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17So, unfortunately, the model ship doesn't come to you this time.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Now, teams, here is a chance to get your hands on the thing you really
0:17:21 > 0:17:25want. Because from now on, you can either go for what is left on the grid,
0:17:25 > 0:17:29or you can try to steal a lot that is in a rival team's collection.
0:17:29 > 0:17:34But, pickers, be warned, because if you choose to steal from another team,
0:17:34 > 0:17:38they will get to choose which question your quizzer must face.
0:17:38 > 0:17:43Just one rule here - you cannot steal from a team who has only one lot in
0:17:43 > 0:17:47their collection. So you're safe, James and Alison, with your stamp case.
0:17:47 > 0:17:51So, Graham, do you want to pick from the grid, or steal from a rival?
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- I think steal.- What would you like to steal?
0:17:53 > 0:17:56I'd like to steal...
0:17:56 > 0:18:00- the necklace.- The necklace from Susan and Leslie?
0:18:00 > 0:18:02There it is.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06Susan and Leslie, which category which you like to choose for Ian?
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Oscar winners.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Oscar winners? Feeling OK?
0:18:10 > 0:18:12- Thank you.- Right, here we go.
0:18:12 > 0:18:16In 2005, Clint Eastwood became the oldest recipient
0:18:16 > 0:18:19of an Oscar in which category?
0:18:19 > 0:18:20Producer?
0:18:20 > 0:18:22- Director.- (Director!)
0:18:22 > 0:18:25Oh, well defended, Susan and Leslie.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28The diamond necklace is still yours.
0:18:28 > 0:18:32Leslie, would you like to steal or take something from the grid?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34I would very much like to steal.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36- What would you like to steal? - I will have the clock, please.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39The clock is in Ian and Graham's collection.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43Ian and Graham, what category would you like to pick for Susan?
0:18:43 > 0:18:44UK number ones.
0:18:44 > 0:18:47UK number ones.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48Susan, here's your question.
0:18:48 > 0:18:55Which artist had her first UK number one single in 1977 with I Feel Love?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57- Donna Summer?- Yes.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Get in.- Well done. You've got the clock.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02James and Alison, do you want to steal,
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- or would you like something from the grid?- Er...
0:19:05 > 0:19:08I'm still going for the ship.
0:19:08 > 0:19:10Good, OK. James, football or rivers?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13- I'll try football again, please. - Football again, here we go.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17The goal-line is located how many yards away from the penalty spot?
0:19:17 > 0:19:20- Penalty spot - 12?- Correct!
0:19:20 > 0:19:24You've got the model ship into Alison's collection.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Well done.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28OK. We're going to do the same again.
0:19:28 > 0:19:32So, Graham, steal from someone or pick from the grid?
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Yes, I think we'll have a go at stealing.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- Would it be the clock?- Yes.
0:19:38 > 0:19:44OK, Susan and Leslie, you've got to pick a category for Ian to answer.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47- Rivers, then, please. - Rivers it is.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49Ian, at 634 miles long,
0:19:49 > 0:19:52what is the name of the longest river in France?
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- The Loire.- It is the Loire.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Goodbye, clock.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59- Going home.- Come back!
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Susan and Leslie, what will you do, steal or pick?
0:20:04 > 0:20:08- We'll steal again. - I wonder what it could be.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11We'd like to steal...
0:20:11 > 0:20:13- the book.- The book!
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Ooh.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Ian and Graham, what category would you like to give Susan?
0:20:17 > 0:20:22- We'll try football.- Oh, you horror. - That could be a low blow, yes.
0:20:23 > 0:20:28- Below the belt.- Playing dirty. - Susan, at the 1986 World Cup,
0:20:28 > 0:20:30which player committed an offence
0:20:30 > 0:20:33that came to be known as "the hand of God"?
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- Maradona!- Yes!
0:20:35 > 0:20:38- You've got the book.- I don't know a thing about football.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Sorry, Ian and Graham.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Well done. James and Alison,
0:20:42 > 0:20:45are you stealing or taking one of the last two things on the grid?
0:20:45 > 0:20:46The dog collar or the fossil?
0:20:48 > 0:20:50- I'll steal the necklace, please. - Oh, the necklace.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Susan and Leslie, you've got to defend the necklace.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55So what category would you like to give James?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58British art, please.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00British art? James,
0:21:00 > 0:21:03which 20th-century British painter created stylised scenes
0:21:03 > 0:21:07of the industrial areas around Pendlebury and Salford?
0:21:08 > 0:21:10- Manet?- Almost.
0:21:10 > 0:21:11LS Lowry.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13- I knew that.- You knew that?
0:21:13 > 0:21:15You knew that.
0:21:15 > 0:21:20Well, I'm so sorry that you are not winning the necklace for Alison.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23That's the end of the round. Let's see how the collections are looking.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26Ian and Graham, they have the sundial, the bike,
0:21:26 > 0:21:28the clock and the oil painting.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Susan and Leslie have the necklace, the cigarette case,
0:21:31 > 0:21:33the book and the cocktail shaker.
0:21:33 > 0:21:37And James and Alison have the stamp case and the model ship.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40OK, for one team, sadly, it's the end of the road.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Natasha has been keeping tabs,
0:21:42 > 0:21:46and the team with the least valuable collection will now sadly
0:21:46 > 0:21:50be eliminated. So, Natasha, who is leaving us first?
0:21:50 > 0:21:53The pair leaving us first is...
0:21:58 > 0:22:00- ..James and Alison.- Thank you.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03And not only are you leaving the game,
0:22:03 > 0:22:07but the items you've had in your collection are eliminated, too.
0:22:07 > 0:22:08Before you go, though,
0:22:08 > 0:22:12you want to find out what your collection is worth.
0:22:12 > 0:22:17Now, the stamp case was invented by Lewis Carroll himself.
0:22:17 > 0:22:22It was designed for holding stamps, of course, of all denominations.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25It dates from around 1888,
0:22:25 > 0:22:28and the case itself is made of folding card,
0:22:28 > 0:22:33but it's got this lovely, reinforced cloth decoration on the outside,
0:22:33 > 0:22:35and it's decorated by illustrations
0:22:35 > 0:22:38from Carroll's own Alice's Adventures In Wonderland.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Now, this copy is of the third edition, the latest addition,
0:22:41 > 0:22:44so it's not the earliest example that you can find.
0:22:44 > 0:22:48The stamp case itself is in very good condition, but its envelope,
0:22:48 > 0:22:50as you saw, is rather torn.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52And as a result, what's it worth?
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Only £60.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56Wow. Yeah.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59I think you all loved that one, but you loved that ship.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Alison, you had to have it. You fought for it, as well.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04You came back to it. And actually,
0:23:04 > 0:23:07nobody else really was interested in it.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Just you, I have to say.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10The boys and their toys, not so drawn to it.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14But were you drawn to a very valuable lot?
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Not hugely - £200.
0:23:16 > 0:23:20So altogether, the total value of your collection was £260.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22- Thank you very much.- Not too shabby.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25James and Alison, it has been a delight to have you here.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28But it is time now to bring the hammer down on your collection,
0:23:28 > 0:23:30but say thank you for playing For What It's Worth.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31Thank you.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34APPLAUSE
0:23:35 > 0:23:38Well, not only have we said goodbye to James and Alison,
0:23:38 > 0:23:40we're now going to say goodbye to the things left on the grid.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44Only two things, Natasha. Would you like to tell us about them?
0:23:44 > 0:23:46I'd love to tell you more about them.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50This dog collar is an antique brass dog collar, obviously,
0:23:50 > 0:23:53and it dates to the early 19th century.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55It's an 18th-century design.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58The 18th century signified the arrival
0:23:58 > 0:24:00of the pampered pooch in England.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02And people came to keep dogs as pets
0:24:02 > 0:24:04and as objects to spoil and treat.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Not with a collar like that, I wouldn't suppose,
0:24:07 > 0:24:09but would this lot have added
0:24:09 > 0:24:12a little bit of bite to your collection?
0:24:12 > 0:24:14Its value, believe it or not,
0:24:14 > 0:24:16£350.
0:24:16 > 0:24:17- Wow.- I know.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19But let's move on to...
0:24:19 > 0:24:23We're still talking species, but we're not talking animals.
0:24:23 > 0:24:27This particular ammonite you see dates from the Cretaceous period,
0:24:27 > 0:24:30the very end of the Mesozoic Era,
0:24:30 > 0:24:33and the end of the dinosaurs themselves.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36And these are the most commonly found fossils,
0:24:36 > 0:24:39as they are the youngest, and usually the most well preserved.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43As is the case with this fossil, which I can reveal to you
0:24:43 > 0:24:45is today's worthless lot.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47Nothing at all, no value whatsoever.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49So the bottom lot has gone,
0:24:49 > 0:24:53which means the top lot is still here somewhere.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Teams, congratulations on getting this far.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59You now have one last chance to pick our expert's brains.
0:24:59 > 0:25:02So which lot do you need to know more about?
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Team one. Ian and Graham.
0:25:04 > 0:25:07- The necklace.- I'm interested in you choosing this one, Graham,
0:25:07 > 0:25:09cos you dismissed it, the necklace.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11You just said, "It's paste."
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Well, it's an Edwardian diamond necklace.
0:25:14 > 0:25:17And it dates from around 1900.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21This period is perhaps best known for its use of filigree techniques,
0:25:21 > 0:25:24which is another design feature of this necklace,
0:25:24 > 0:25:26that nice pierced style.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Although we don't know for sure exactly who made the necklace,
0:25:29 > 0:25:31it's a very fine example of the time.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35It's made of... 18-carat white gold.
0:25:35 > 0:25:40And the weight of the diamonds is 1.8 carats.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43So how will it weigh in when it comes to its value?
0:25:43 > 0:25:45Food for thought, Ian and Graham?
0:25:45 > 0:25:49- Yes.- Yes.- And possibly for Susan and Leslie, too.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Susan and Leslie, what would you like to know more about?
0:25:52 > 0:25:54We'll go with the oil painting.
0:25:54 > 0:25:55The oil painting please, Natasha.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Ah, yes. I was watching you,
0:25:57 > 0:26:02waiting for the superlatives, and all I got was, "nice", "decent".
0:26:02 > 0:26:05It didn't really set you on fire, but you all had a look at the back
0:26:05 > 0:26:09and discovered that the painting is entitled The Runners
0:26:09 > 0:26:12by British artist Lancelot Myles Glasson,
0:26:12 > 0:26:16who lived between 1894 and 1959.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19The majority of his paintings are of people
0:26:19 > 0:26:22caught in the midst of everyday activity,
0:26:22 > 0:26:25usually sporting in nature, like his most celebrated work,
0:26:25 > 0:26:28which you may have seen, The Rowers.
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Now, however, The Runners is also a fine example of this work
0:26:31 > 0:26:35and the painting has clearly been sold and reframed several times.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39It also has a framer's label from James Bourlet & Son Ltd
0:26:39 > 0:26:44and two modern plywood panels inserted to fill out the gap
0:26:44 > 0:26:48between the canvas and this rather ill-fitting frame,
0:26:48 > 0:26:51which is clearly a much later addition.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54- Thank you.- It's time now for our final round.
0:26:54 > 0:26:56And at the end of it, we'll have our winners.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59APPLAUSE
0:26:59 > 0:27:00Now, in this round,
0:27:00 > 0:27:04I'm going to show you a category and 12 possible answers.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Nine of the answers are correct.
0:27:06 > 0:27:08Three are not.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Each of you will then take turns to choose an answer
0:27:11 > 0:27:15that you think is correct. As it's the final round,
0:27:15 > 0:27:19both quizzers and pickers will play, so there's nowhere to hide.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Pick a wrong answer and your opponents will be able to
0:27:22 > 0:27:26steal a lot from your collection. We'll play three questions in total
0:27:26 > 0:27:29and the pair with the most valuable collection
0:27:29 > 0:27:31can choose to go first or second.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Natasha, who has the most valuable collection at the moment?
0:27:34 > 0:27:36Yes, I can reveal to you that
0:27:36 > 0:27:41the team with the more valuable collection is...
0:27:43 > 0:27:45..Graham and Ian.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47- Oh...- Ooh! OK.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Graham and Ian.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52The first question is...
0:27:52 > 0:27:54World War II rations.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58Now, can you find the items which were officially rationed in the UK
0:27:58 > 0:28:02by the Ministry of Food between the start of the war in 1939
0:28:02 > 0:28:06and the end of the war in May 1945?
0:28:06 > 0:28:09Ian and Graham, would you like to go first or second?
0:28:09 > 0:28:11We'll go first.
0:28:11 > 0:28:15OK. Let's reveal the possible answers.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20Ian. Would you give me a correct answer?
0:28:20 > 0:28:22- Petrol.- Let's have a look.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24If it turns green, you're OK.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26Well done. Susan, your turn.
0:28:26 > 0:28:27Sugar.
0:28:28 > 0:28:29Is this correct?
0:28:30 > 0:28:32Yes, it is.
0:28:32 > 0:28:33Graham.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35- Eggs.- Eggs.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Yes, that's right.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40- Leslie.- Fish.
0:28:40 > 0:28:41Fish.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45I'm afraid fish is incorrect!
0:28:45 > 0:28:46Where were the right ones?
0:28:47 > 0:28:48Ah, there you go.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51Fish, wood and cauliflower were never rationed.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Everything else was.
0:28:53 > 0:28:58Therefore, Ian and Graham, you may steal from Susan and Leslie.
0:28:58 > 0:28:59I fancy the necklace.
0:28:59 > 0:29:01LAUGHTER
0:29:01 > 0:29:02- Now.- Now.
0:29:04 > 0:29:05I'm so sorry.
0:29:05 > 0:29:08The diamond necklace is now in Ian and Graham's collection.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Wahey!
0:29:10 > 0:29:12Susan and Leslie, here you go.
0:29:12 > 0:29:13This is your chance.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16The question is species of butterfly.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19You need to spot the names of butterfly species.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Would you like to go first or second?
0:29:21 > 0:29:22First, please, Fern.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24First, very good. Susan.
0:29:24 > 0:29:25Here are the answers.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28Nine of these are correct. Three of them are not.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30Can you see a correct answer there, Susan?
0:29:31 > 0:29:33I'd like to pick Painted Lady.
0:29:33 > 0:29:36Painted Lady. Let's have a look.
0:29:36 > 0:29:38Correct. Ian.
0:29:38 > 0:29:39Seen them in my garden.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41- Brimstone.- Brimstone.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45Correct. Leslie.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47Spotted Chorus?
0:29:47 > 0:29:48Spotted Chorus.
0:29:50 > 0:29:51- And again?!- Oh, Leslie.
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Well, that's why Susan is your quizzer, of course.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57OK, that is incorrect.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00Let's have a look where the other incorrect answers were.
0:30:00 > 0:30:04Spotted Chorus. I'm afraid that's a frog.
0:30:04 > 0:30:05Would you have known that?
0:30:05 > 0:30:08Busy Lizzie, of course, is a plant.
0:30:08 > 0:30:12- And Heather Shimmer is a lipstick colour.- Lipstick.- Yeah.
0:30:12 > 0:30:15So, Ian and Graham, you have to choose something
0:30:15 > 0:30:16from Susan and Leslie.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18I think we'll have the book back.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20The book is on its way.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22Right. Final question.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26Here it is. Roald Dahl characters.
0:30:26 > 0:30:30Can you find the names of characters which appear in Roald Dahl's books
0:30:30 > 0:30:33for children? Ian and Graham, first or second?
0:30:33 > 0:30:34- First.- First.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36OK. Let's reveal the answers.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Can you spot the correct ones from the incorrect?
0:30:41 > 0:30:43Ian. Give me an answer.
0:30:43 > 0:30:46I think I recognise Veruca Salt.
0:30:46 > 0:30:47Veruca Salt.
0:30:47 > 0:30:50Yes, of course that's correct.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52Susan. Give me an answer.
0:30:52 > 0:30:58I think Jennifer Honey was Miss Honey the schoolteacher in Matilda.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01Jennifer Honey is correct.
0:31:01 > 0:31:04- Graham.- This is a guess now.
0:31:04 > 0:31:05Oh, don't.
0:31:06 > 0:31:07Mr Wormwood.
0:31:07 > 0:31:09Mr Wormwood.
0:31:10 > 0:31:11Oh!
0:31:11 > 0:31:14- Well done.- Correct, that is also from Matilda.
0:31:14 > 0:31:15Leslie.
0:31:15 > 0:31:17The Fleshlumpeater.
0:31:17 > 0:31:19The Fleshlumpeater.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21Let's have a look. Yes!
0:31:21 > 0:31:23- That was from...- A green one! - Do you know?
0:31:23 > 0:31:25BFG. The Big Friendly Giant.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28There we go. Ian.
0:31:28 > 0:31:30I've got a feeling Mike Teevee
0:31:30 > 0:31:32is the one that gets shrunk
0:31:32 > 0:31:35- in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory.- Is it correct?
0:31:35 > 0:31:39Yes. And it is Charlie And The Chocolate Factory.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41Susan.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44I think he wrote a book called The Twits,
0:31:44 > 0:31:48so it would follow that Mrs Twit may be a character,
0:31:48 > 0:31:50- so I'll go for that one.- Mrs Twit.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53Correct. Graham.
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Hmm.
0:31:56 > 0:31:58You've got a 50-50 chance.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00Three are correct and three are wrong.
0:32:00 > 0:32:02Jack Bunsby.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03Jack Bunsby.
0:32:03 > 0:32:04Is that correct?
0:32:05 > 0:32:08- Oh.- He's a Charles Dickens character.
0:32:08 > 0:32:09- Oh.- Yeah.- Yes.
0:32:09 > 0:32:13Oh, well. Let's have a look at all the answers.
0:32:13 > 0:32:15Dirk Creswell, Jack Bunsby and Anne Featherstone
0:32:15 > 0:32:17were the incorrect ones.
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Everyone else was a Roald Dahl character.
0:32:20 > 0:32:21Susan and Leslie.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24What would you like to steal from Ian and Graham?
0:32:24 > 0:32:27This is a big moment. Last steal of the game.
0:32:27 > 0:32:29- I know.- It's one of three things.
0:32:29 > 0:32:35It's either the necklace, the clock or the sundial.
0:32:35 > 0:32:38- You don't think the book, because it was the first edition?- Or the book.
0:32:38 > 0:32:42- Or the book. You choose.- Do you want to go for the book, then?
0:32:42 > 0:32:45- Yeah, go for the book. - Right, we've got to make a decision,
0:32:45 > 0:32:49- so we'd like to go for the book, please.- Please.- OK.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53The book is now yours and it's in your collection.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55That's it. Your collections are complete,
0:32:55 > 0:32:57and will determine which team is victorious.
0:32:57 > 0:32:59I think we might have worked out -
0:32:59 > 0:33:01have you at home? - what has happened here.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04Natasha, who are today's winners?
0:33:04 > 0:33:05Yes, I can reveal to you
0:33:05 > 0:33:09that the pair with the more valuable collection
0:33:09 > 0:33:12and the winners of today's programme are...
0:33:12 > 0:33:15- Graham and Ian.- Well done.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18APPLAUSE
0:33:20 > 0:33:23Well, commiserations, Susan and Leslie.
0:33:23 > 0:33:25You did not create a valuable enough collection.
0:33:25 > 0:33:27So before we say goodbye, of course,
0:33:27 > 0:33:30we want to find out what your items are worth. Natasha.
0:33:30 > 0:33:32Let's start with the cocktail shaker.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Now, Leslie, straightaway you spotted it was silver.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37Not everyone did. They had to kind of look for those hallmarks.
0:33:37 > 0:33:40You knew it was silver. You knew it was Art Deco.
0:33:40 > 0:33:41And you were bang on with that.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44It's the cocktail shaker from the Art Deco period
0:33:44 > 0:33:46and it was made by Turner and Simpson.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50That was the "T and S", the maker's mark, circa 1934.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54They were quite prominent in Birmingham as silversmiths.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57Art Deco shakers are chic, sleek and stylish,
0:33:57 > 0:34:00but they are also quite simple to manufacture.
0:34:00 > 0:34:03However, this particular shaker, simple in its style,
0:34:03 > 0:34:07is made out of solid sterling silver,
0:34:07 > 0:34:08making it more unusual,
0:34:08 > 0:34:13and it's also in top condition with no visible damage whatsoever.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15But what's its value?
0:34:15 > 0:34:18Leslie, you said a few hundred pounds?
0:34:18 > 0:34:22You were right. £600 to be exact, so well done.
0:34:22 > 0:34:24You have very good taste.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26And then we moved on to the book.
0:34:26 > 0:34:31Now, as soon as I said first edition, you were really dithering.
0:34:31 > 0:34:34"Do we go for the clock? Do we go with the necklace?
0:34:34 > 0:34:37"It's got to be that book, because of first edition."
0:34:37 > 0:34:39But it's rarity that counts.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41Age, rarity, condition, condition, condition
0:34:41 > 0:34:44and taking it all into consideration, believe it or not,
0:34:44 > 0:34:46the book is only worth £100.
0:34:46 > 0:34:49Can you believe that? £100.
0:34:49 > 0:34:531863. Anyway, let's move on to that cigarette case.
0:34:53 > 0:34:56- Now, everyone dismissed this as gold plate.- So did we!
0:34:56 > 0:34:59- But let me tell you, it's a solid gold...- Oh!
0:34:59 > 0:35:03..Art Deco cigarette case. Guffaw there from you, Leslie.
0:35:03 > 0:35:06It's nine-carat gold, the hallmarks are on the inside,
0:35:06 > 0:35:13so it's marked 375 for nine carat gold, meaning it's 37.5% pure gold.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16But it has its original soft case that goes along with it.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18It's in good condition.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21You didn't quite think it was solid gold, but it is.
0:35:21 > 0:35:25It's worth £2,000, that cigarette case, so...
0:35:25 > 0:35:27- Wow.- I know, it is a wow, actually.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30So, well done, well done.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32But there was some very good choosing there.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34That takes the value up to...
0:35:34 > 0:35:37£2,700 in total.
0:35:37 > 0:35:38That was excellent. Excellent.
0:35:38 > 0:35:40Susan and Leslie, thank you very much
0:35:40 > 0:35:42for playing For What It's Worth.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44APPLAUSE
0:35:47 > 0:35:49Well done, Ian and Graham.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51You are today's winners,
0:35:51 > 0:35:55and we know that the top lot is somewhere in your collection.
0:35:55 > 0:35:59All you've got to do now is claim your prize.
0:35:59 > 0:36:03You've got to pick one of your lots, that we hope is the top lot,
0:36:03 > 0:36:07and then we will give you the value of whichever you pick in cash.
0:36:07 > 0:36:11So, talk amongst yourselves. Which one would you want to choose?
0:36:11 > 0:36:17I think the necklace was already in their collection.
0:36:17 > 0:36:20And that, even with that in their collection, didn't help?
0:36:20 > 0:36:24It didn't help to outbid us. Yeah. Good point.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27So it would suggest that the clock and the sundial...
0:36:27 > 0:36:30Because the oil painting, it wasn't a professional.
0:36:30 > 0:36:34- It was an amateur.- Unless the bike belonged to Winston Churchill
0:36:34 > 0:36:36or something, which I don't think it did.
0:36:36 > 0:36:37No, we dismissed that.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- The clock and the sundial. - I still think it's the clock.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42- You think it's the clock?- Yeah.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45- Always did.- So, shall we just go with the clock?
0:36:45 > 0:36:47- Yeah.- We'll go for the clock.
0:36:47 > 0:36:51- Go for broke.- Final answer is you've chosen the clock.
0:36:51 > 0:36:54Before we let you know what it's worth,
0:36:54 > 0:36:57Natasha is going to tell us what you haven't won.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59Let's start off with the bicycle.
0:36:59 > 0:37:03And look, here it is folded out and there it is on the screen folded up.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05What a unique thing.
0:37:05 > 0:37:10Invented in late 1943 by BSA Cycles in Birmingham.
0:37:10 > 0:37:13And the bike was designed to be dropped by parachute -
0:37:13 > 0:37:17amazing to think - down to accompany paratroopers.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19With two turns of the attached butterfly screws,
0:37:19 > 0:37:25the bike is unfolded and it's good to be ridden off to face the enemy.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29Now, sometimes these bikes were sold cheap as army surplus
0:37:29 > 0:37:33and sometimes they became valuable collectables.
0:37:33 > 0:37:36So, cheap army surplus?
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Valuable collectable?
0:37:39 > 0:37:41At £800, I would say the latter.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45Now, The Runners is the painting that we've already discussed
0:37:45 > 0:37:48and discussed and discussed, but do you know what?
0:37:48 > 0:37:51I was watching you two hum and haw over this painting.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53Neither of you liked it.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55But there is something about the realism of it.
0:37:55 > 0:37:57It's the subject matter that counts here.
0:37:57 > 0:38:00And its value is in four figures.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04It weighs in at £1,200.
0:38:04 > 0:38:06So not the top lot.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Panic not. Panic not.
0:38:09 > 0:38:12But then we get onto the necklace. We've already discussed the fact
0:38:12 > 0:38:15that you dismissed it as small diamonds to start off with,
0:38:15 > 0:38:17then, "Hang on, maybe it's paste."
0:38:17 > 0:38:20But then I told you it was set in 18-carat white gold
0:38:20 > 0:38:22and all of a sudden, like those diamonds,
0:38:22 > 0:38:25your eyes started to sparkle.
0:38:25 > 0:38:29But is the price as sparkly as those diamonds?
0:38:29 > 0:38:31We've had £800.
0:38:31 > 0:38:32We've had £1,200.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35- Am I going up in value? - Yes.- I'm going back down.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37- Oh.- To £700 for this necklace.
0:38:37 > 0:38:39- So...- 700?
0:38:39 > 0:38:42I think you knew it wasn't worth a huge sum, the necklace.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44Now, this one. I think a couple of teachers,
0:38:44 > 0:38:47this is something that would have piqued your interest.
0:38:47 > 0:38:49Imagine if you'd brought this in in front of a class
0:38:49 > 0:38:52and asked them to discuss it. You know that they would have loved it.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54It's old. It's interesting.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57It's useful. It's valuable.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02£1,500.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04You are out of rough seas, don't worry.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08- Don't worry. - So, you've done the right thing!
0:39:08 > 0:39:10You chose the clock, Ian and Graham.
0:39:10 > 0:39:12It's today's most valuable lot.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14It's worth £2,500. Well done.
0:39:14 > 0:39:15APPLAUSE
0:39:18 > 0:39:20£2,500!
0:39:21 > 0:39:23But it's not over yet.
0:39:23 > 0:39:28- Ohh...- We have the mystery lot lurking under the red cloth there.
0:39:28 > 0:39:31And that could be worth even more.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38Oh, Ian and Graham, you've done so well.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40Here is your lot. Take a good look at it.
0:39:40 > 0:39:44As things stand, we know that you have won £2,500
0:39:44 > 0:39:46because you chose our top lot.
0:39:46 > 0:39:49Very well done. However,
0:39:49 > 0:39:50we like to tempt you.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54Would you swap it for something that might be worth even more?
0:39:54 > 0:39:58Our mystery lot. Natasha, what have you got for them today?
0:39:58 > 0:40:00I've got something awfully fragile, so before I reveal it to you,
0:40:00 > 0:40:03I'm going to get a steady grip on it.
0:40:03 > 0:40:05Are you ready? Here goes.
0:40:05 > 0:40:08OK.
0:40:08 > 0:40:11A Chinese purple glass vase, as you can see.
0:40:11 > 0:40:14But the decoration on the front and back
0:40:14 > 0:40:16are moulded with 100 characters.
0:40:16 > 0:40:21Now, those are "shou" characters written in various scripts all over.
0:40:21 > 0:40:25Now, the Chinese character "shou" stands for longevity.
0:40:25 > 0:40:28Very important in East Asian culture.
0:40:28 > 0:40:32This particular vase was given as a diplomatic gift to...
0:40:34 > 0:40:36..Margaret Thatcher,
0:40:36 > 0:40:40in 1995, by the People's Republic of China
0:40:40 > 0:40:43for her role in the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46Now, Margaret Thatcher was obviously a very polarising figure.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49Many loved her and many didn't.
0:40:49 > 0:40:54So what does her connection do to the value of this vase?
0:40:54 > 0:40:56Gentlemen, what's it worth?
0:40:56 > 0:41:00It could be worth millions. It could be worth nothing.
0:41:00 > 0:41:04It's beautiful. I'm concerned that stuff of Margaret Thatcher's
0:41:04 > 0:41:08was turned down recently for a museum, but I don't know.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10That's the only thing it's got going for it.
0:41:10 > 0:41:13- Its history.- Its history. It's the fact that it's related to
0:41:13 > 0:41:17- Margaret Thatcher.- And sentimental only to her.- We hope.
0:41:17 > 0:41:19But that, I think, is beautiful.
0:41:19 > 0:41:21So, your final decision is...?
0:41:23 > 0:41:26- The clock. - Keep the clock, dump the vase?
0:41:26 > 0:41:27- Yeah.- Dump the vase.
0:41:27 > 0:41:30So now, Natasha's just going to rub salt into the wound
0:41:30 > 0:41:33and tell you the worth of the vase.
0:41:33 > 0:41:36Before I do that, I'm going to question you, gentlemen,
0:41:36 > 0:41:39because haven't you heard about the East Asian market?
0:41:39 > 0:41:41It's booming.
0:41:41 > 0:41:43But Graham, you just said something really important.
0:41:43 > 0:41:46You sort of said it in a flippant way. You said, "it's history".
0:41:46 > 0:41:50"It's just a bit of history." But it's history.
0:41:50 > 0:41:51It's the way you play it.
0:41:51 > 0:41:56This...the Iron Lady herself was presented this vase.
0:41:56 > 0:41:58There is only one of these in the world.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00Gentlemen...
0:42:00 > 0:42:02You had today's top lot.
0:42:04 > 0:42:05And the mystery lot...
0:42:07 > 0:42:08..is only worth £400!
0:42:08 > 0:42:10LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
0:42:12 > 0:42:14Well done, gentlemen!
0:42:14 > 0:42:17- Well done.- He's good.- Isn't he?!
0:42:17 > 0:42:19Oh, my goodness.
0:42:19 > 0:42:22- Hang on, hang on. - Yeah, all right.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25Someone put the kettle on, please.
0:42:25 > 0:42:28Right, OK. Do you want to hear a little bit more about the clock?
0:42:28 > 0:42:31- What can you tell us?- Sure. I mean, these clocks
0:42:31 > 0:42:33are serious 17th and 18th century designs.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36This one is late 18th, early 19th century,
0:42:36 > 0:42:39but the reason for those handles, you clocked straightaway,
0:42:39 > 0:42:43is because clocks were too expensive to have in every room,
0:42:43 > 0:42:46so these bracket clocks were designed with the caddy top -
0:42:46 > 0:42:48that's how you describe the handled top -
0:42:48 > 0:42:52to be moved from room to room so you could show off your wealth
0:42:52 > 0:42:54with just one clock. It's cracking.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58And it's worth £2,500.
0:42:58 > 0:43:00And that money is yours!
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Congratulations!
0:43:03 > 0:43:05Fantastic. Absolutely...
0:43:05 > 0:43:07APPLAUSE
0:43:07 > 0:43:12Ian and Graham, you played the game absolutely spot on.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15- Lovely to see you, Natasha.- You too. - I hope to see you again soon.
0:43:15 > 0:43:18And we want to see you, too, when more teams will be playing
0:43:18 > 0:43:22to try and spot the lot to win the lot on For What It's Worth.
0:43:22 > 0:43:25I'll see you next time. Goodbye for now.
