Hello, and welcome to For What It's Worth.

0:00:150:00:18

This is the show that quizzes you with questions

0:00:180:00:20

and asks you to put a value on the vintage.

0:00:200:00:23

Three pairs of contestants are ready to play.

0:00:230:00:25

Each team has a quizzer who has to answer a general knowledge question

0:00:250:00:29

correctly so that their partner, the picker,

0:00:290:00:31

has a chance to choose an antique or collectable and build a collection.

0:00:310:00:35

The aim of the game is to amass the most valuable collection.

0:00:350:00:38

Now, each day I'm joined by an antiques expert.

0:00:380:00:41

Today, we have a woman who reminds me of a watercolour painting.

0:00:410:00:46

She's got style, beauty and lightens up any room.

0:00:460:00:50

Though be warned, if she gets wet, she might run.

0:00:500:00:52

Would you please welcome Kate Bliss!

0:00:520:00:54

APPLAUSE

0:00:540:00:56

Ah, Kate, would you like to tell me about the lots that we have here

0:00:570:01:00

for our contestants to choose from?

0:01:000:01:03

I certainly will.

0:01:030:01:04

We have a huge variety here.

0:01:040:01:06

So we have...

0:01:060:01:08

a cup and saucer,

0:01:080:01:11

a painting,

0:01:110:01:12

a watch,

0:01:120:01:14

a vase,

0:01:140:01:16

a bowl,

0:01:160:01:17

a toy,

0:01:170:01:19

a jug,

0:01:190:01:21

a statuette,

0:01:210:01:23

a thermometer,

0:01:230:01:25

a table,

0:01:250:01:26

a chair

0:01:260:01:28

and a kovsh.

0:01:280:01:30

Now, one of these items is our top lot,

0:01:300:01:34

which is worth a whopping £2,500.

0:01:340:01:37

That is the lot to spot, because at the end of the show,

0:01:370:01:40

the winning pair will walk away with the cash equivalent

0:01:400:01:43

of one of their items. But beware,

0:01:430:01:44

because the lots decrease in value right down to our worthless lot,

0:01:440:01:48

which is a tenner or less.

0:01:480:01:50

That is the lot to avoid, teams.

0:01:500:01:52

So who's playing today? Well, let's meet our teams.

0:01:520:01:55

Team One, who are you?

0:01:550:01:56

My name's Paul. This is my grandson Jordan.

0:01:560:01:59

And I love going to car-boot sales and finding hidden treasures.

0:01:590:02:02

Excellent. You're in the right place.

0:02:020:02:04

Team Two, who are you?

0:02:040:02:06

Hi, I'm Barbara, and this is my husband, Richard.

0:02:060:02:09

And we like going round the antique fairs and car-boots.

0:02:090:02:12

We come from King's Lynn in Norfolk.

0:02:120:02:15

Very nice to have you here.

0:02:150:02:16

And Team Three, who are you?

0:02:160:02:18

Hello, Fern, I'm Jan and this is my friend Mandy.

0:02:180:02:21

And we've known each other for 30-odd years.

0:02:210:02:24

And Jan likes collecting glassware, and I'm an old book person.

0:02:240:02:29

You don't look like an OLD book person.

0:02:290:02:32

A book person will do.

0:02:320:02:33

Welcome, everybody, and jolly good luck.

0:02:330:02:35

Now, earlier, our teams got to inspect the lots close up,

0:02:350:02:39

watched over by Kate.

0:02:390:02:41

But could they separate the grand from the bland?

0:02:410:02:44

Let's see.

0:02:440:02:45

Ooh, OK.

0:02:450:02:47

Wow.

0:02:490:02:50

Oh, right.

0:02:510:02:53

Oh, that's a kovsh.

0:02:530:02:54

-That's Russian.

-That is.

0:02:540:02:56

It's very pretty.

0:02:560:02:58

-It's got 88 on it.

-Oh, 88, there we go.

0:02:580:03:00

If it's Russian, it would be quite valuable.

0:03:000:03:02

I should think that's a fairly old piece.

0:03:030:03:05

They don't feel old handles to me.

0:03:050:03:07

They feel like they're new.

0:03:070:03:08

-Just put on, a replacement?

-Yeah, to make it look old.

0:03:080:03:11

That must be bronze...

0:03:130:03:14

-Yeah.

-Because that is so heavy.

0:03:140:03:16

They're really thinking about the material, which is great.

0:03:160:03:19

-Got a bit of a...hooky nose.

-Bronze.

0:03:190:03:21

I wonder if that's clockwork.

0:03:220:03:24

Probably pull that along.

0:03:240:03:26

-£50, I reckon.

-Could be.

0:03:260:03:28

Thermometer. Yeah, silver.

0:03:290:03:31

Silver, yeah. Silver hallmark.

0:03:310:03:34

Got the material right.

0:03:340:03:35

-Is that a leopard's head?

-Is that London?

0:03:350:03:38

Right, the watch.

0:03:390:03:41

Hallmark's on top there. It's on top.

0:03:410:03:42

What have you spotted, then, Jordan?

0:03:420:03:44

It's 24 carat gold. It's got the really bright gold, hasn't it?

0:03:440:03:48

Probably worth money.

0:03:480:03:50

-There is a name.

-In the middle.

0:03:510:03:53

-Careful!

-R-L-A...

0:03:530:03:56

We're getting so warm.

0:03:560:03:58

Does it say "A Lalique," or just "Lalique?"

0:03:580:04:00

Rian. It's French.

0:04:000:04:02

See, now, that painting - I don't like that.

0:04:020:04:06

No, it's too dull, isn't it?

0:04:060:04:08

W... Callow. I've not heard of him.

0:04:080:04:12

Got the name of the artist, but we don't know anything about him.

0:04:120:04:14

-Cranberry glass?

-Is it cranberry, yeah?

-Look at the bottom,

0:04:160:04:20

look at the thickness of the glass.

0:04:200:04:22

No, nothing much.

0:04:240:04:25

-Looks a bit like a nursing chair, doesn't it?

-Yeah.

0:04:270:04:30

-It's not Georgian, is it?

-I don't know.

0:04:300:04:33

Close.

0:04:330:04:35

-It's a tea bowl, not a cup.

-Yeah, tea bowl.

0:04:350:04:39

It looks to me like they don't belong together.

0:04:390:04:41

Yeah, maybe they're just similar.

0:04:410:04:43

That one's a lot lighter blue than that one.

0:04:430:04:45

So would that affect the value?

0:04:450:04:47

Is that a kimono? Little figures?

0:04:490:04:51

So maybe it's Japanese.

0:04:510:04:52

Could be old. It's an old pattern.

0:04:520:04:54

It's the sort of thing that

0:04:540:04:56

-my mum would really like.

-You can't take it home, Mandy!

0:04:560:04:59

We've got to go between the statuette and the kovsh.

0:04:590:05:03

We'll go for the statuette.

0:05:030:05:04

I think the kovsh might have it.

0:05:040:05:07

I would say the painting, probably, if it's the right painting.

0:05:080:05:11

No, let's go with the table.

0:05:110:05:12

Not completely convinced, but the table is nice.

0:05:120:05:16

-And the bottom is...

-The bottom one I'm pretty convinced is the jug.

0:05:160:05:19

-The brown-red jug, lowest?

-Lowest, I'd say.

0:05:190:05:21

And we think that's the cheapest, the little red jug?

0:05:210:05:25

-Yeah, you happy with that?

-I think so, yeah.

0:05:250:05:27

But what I did like was that chair.

0:05:270:05:28

Yeah, I wish I knew more about paintings.

0:05:280:05:31

Kate, what fun to spy on them.

0:05:330:05:35

Mm! Some really interesting decisions.

0:05:350:05:39

-All sorts.

-And how have the valuations been arrived at?

0:05:390:05:43

So the valuations for each item have been agreed by myself

0:05:430:05:46

and an independent valuer.

0:05:460:05:48

And they're based on the hammer price

0:05:480:05:50

we would expect the item to reach at auction.

0:05:500:05:54

But with no auction costs added.

0:05:540:05:57

Just to add an extra twist, we have our mystery lot.

0:05:570:06:00

Now, this could be worth thousands, or it could be worth peanuts.

0:06:000:06:03

That's for our winners to decide a little later.

0:06:030:06:06

But for now, it's time for round one.

0:06:060:06:09

APPLAUSE

0:06:090:06:11

Right, I'm going to ask eight general knowledge questions.

0:06:130:06:16

Pickers, before each one I'm going to ask you to select

0:06:160:06:19

which lot you'd like to play for. And then, quizzers,

0:06:190:06:22

if you buzz in with the correct answer

0:06:220:06:24

you will get to add that lot to your collection.

0:06:240:06:26

But beware, if you buzz in incorrectly,

0:06:260:06:28

you'll be frozen out of the next question.

0:06:280:06:31

So pickers, please make your first pick.

0:06:310:06:33

Let's see what you want.

0:06:360:06:38

Bob and Jordan, you've gone for the painting.

0:06:400:06:43

Barbara and Richard for the statuette.

0:06:430:06:45

Jan and Mandy want the kovsh.

0:06:450:06:49

Quizzers, fingers on buzzers, first question.

0:06:490:06:51

Which word can be used to refer to a type of tooth

0:06:510:06:55

or an animal from the dog family?

0:06:550:06:57

-Yes, Bob?

-Molar?

0:06:570:06:59

Oh, no, it's canine.

0:06:590:07:01

-Oh, no.

-You're now frozen out of the next question, Bob and Jordan.

0:07:010:07:06

Richard and Mandy, pick a lot.

0:07:060:07:09

Barbara and Richard still want the statuette,

0:07:100:07:13

Jan and Mandy want the table.

0:07:130:07:15

Here's the question.

0:07:150:07:16

The Black Forest gateau originated in which country?

0:07:160:07:20

-Yes, Barbara?

-Germany?

0:07:200:07:21

Germany is correct.

0:07:210:07:22

The statuette is yours, well done.

0:07:220:07:25

And Bob and Jordan, you are now back into the next question.

0:07:250:07:28

Pickers, what's your lots?

0:07:280:07:31

Bob and Jordan want the watch.

0:07:340:07:36

Barbara and Richard and Jan and Mandy

0:07:360:07:38

are going to have a battle for the kovsh.

0:07:380:07:41

Question three.

0:07:410:07:42

Which UK girl group had a 1987 hit with Love In The First Degree?

0:07:420:07:47

-Barbara?

-Spice Girls?

0:07:470:07:48

Incorrect.

0:07:480:07:50

Which UK girl group had in 1987 hit with Love In The First Degree?

0:07:500:07:54

It was Bananarama.

0:07:540:07:56

Barbara and Richard, you're frozen out of the next question.

0:07:560:07:59

Jordan and Mandy, make a pick.

0:07:590:08:02

It's like measles.

0:08:050:08:07

It's very contagious.

0:08:070:08:08

One person goes for something, everybody does.

0:08:080:08:11

You both want the kovsh.

0:08:110:08:13

Question four, then, quizzers.

0:08:130:08:14

What does the F stand for in the government office known as Defra?

0:08:140:08:20

-Yes, Jan?

-Food?

0:08:200:08:21

Correct, it is.

0:08:210:08:23

It's the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.

0:08:230:08:28

And the kovsh is yours.

0:08:280:08:30

Congratulations. Barbara and Richard,

0:08:300:08:32

you're back in for the next question.

0:08:320:08:34

Pickers, make a pick.

0:08:340:08:36

Bob and Jordan want the painting, Barbara and Richard want the bowl,

0:08:380:08:41

Jan and Mandy want the table.

0:08:410:08:43

Question five.

0:08:430:08:44

The two official national languages of Canada

0:08:440:08:46

are English and which...?

0:08:460:08:48

-Jan?

-French?

0:08:480:08:49

The two official national languages of Canada

0:08:490:08:52

are English and which other?

0:08:520:08:53

The answer is French, the table is yours.

0:08:530:08:56

Pickers, pick a lot.

0:08:570:08:58

Bob and Jordan still want the watch.

0:09:010:09:03

Barbara and Richard really want the bowl.

0:09:030:09:05

Jan and Mandy want the cup and saucer.

0:09:050:09:08

Question six, quizzers.

0:09:080:09:09

In tennis, which is the oldest of the four Grand Slam tour...

0:09:090:09:13

-Yes, Bob?

-Wimbledon?

-In tennis,

0:09:130:09:15

which is the oldest of the four Grand Slam tournaments?

0:09:150:09:18

The answer is Wimbledon. It was founded in 1887.

0:09:180:09:21

The watch is yours.

0:09:210:09:23

Pickers, pick a lot.

0:09:230:09:24

Bob and Jordan want that painting,

0:09:270:09:28

Barbara and Richard want the bowl,

0:09:280:09:30

Jan and Mandy want the cup and saucer.

0:09:300:09:33

Question seven. Catherine the Great was Empress of Russia during...?

0:09:330:09:37

Yes, Jan?

0:09:370:09:39

Oh... The Napoleonic years?

0:09:390:09:41

-No...

-That's not the answer I'm looking for.

0:09:410:09:45

The full question is, Catherine the Great was Empress of Russia

0:09:450:09:48

during which century? It is the 18th.

0:09:480:09:50

You are frozen out of the last question.

0:09:500:09:55

Jordan and Richard, make a pick.

0:09:550:09:57

Bob and Jordan want the cup and saucer,

0:10:000:10:02

Barbara and Richard want the bowl.

0:10:020:10:04

This is the final question in this round, quizzers.

0:10:040:10:07

The name of which artform translates from the Japanese for...?

0:10:070:10:11

-Yes, Bob?

-Art Deco?

0:10:110:10:13

This is the full question.

0:10:130:10:14

The name of which artform translates from the Japanese for folding paper?

0:10:140:10:19

The answer is of course...

0:10:190:10:20

-Origami.

-Origami.

0:10:200:10:23

I'm so sorry, you don't get the cup and saucer.

0:10:230:10:25

And that is the end of round one.

0:10:250:10:28

So let's have a look at your collections.

0:10:280:10:29

Bob and Jordan have the watch,

0:10:290:10:31

Barbara and Richard have the statuette,

0:10:310:10:33

Jan and Mandy have the kovsh and the table.

0:10:330:10:37

Now, our teams have started to build their collections nicely.

0:10:370:10:40

But have they chosen wisely?

0:10:400:10:42

Well, before they have the chance to add more to them,

0:10:420:10:45

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

0:10:450:10:49

Which should be everything they need to know to make a valuation.

0:10:490:10:52

Team One, let's get to know you a bit better.

0:10:530:10:55

Bob, you are a big West Ham fan?

0:10:550:10:57

-Yeah.

-So I'm suggesting that sport memorabilia is big for you?

0:10:570:11:01

-It is, yeah.

-What have you got?

0:11:010:11:03

Programmes, tickets, old cup final tickets, and things like that.

0:11:030:11:06

-Have you been going since you were a boy?

-Yeah, since I was six.

0:11:060:11:09

And Jordan is your step grandson, I think?

0:11:090:11:12

-Yeah, yeah.

-And is he a good picker?

0:11:120:11:14

-I hope so!

-THEY LAUGH

0:11:140:11:17

Jordan, who started your interest in antiques?

0:11:170:11:20

I'd say it was, like, my nan and grandad.

0:11:200:11:22

They got me into, like, collecting coins, collecting harmonicas,

0:11:220:11:27

-and things like that.

-Interesting.

0:11:270:11:29

Well, boys, what would you like to know more about from Kate?

0:11:290:11:33

Um... The painting.

0:11:330:11:35

-The painting?

-This is a painting entitled The Drover.

0:11:350:11:40

And it's by the esteemed English artist William Callow.

0:11:400:11:45

Now, Callow lived between 1812 and 1908

0:11:450:11:49

and he's known for his landscapes,

0:11:490:11:51

his engravings, and of course his watercolours.

0:11:510:11:54

It has a stock label on the back

0:11:540:11:57

from the very reputable auction dealer Agnew and Sons.

0:11:570:12:01

And it's undated,

0:12:010:12:03

so the dashing technique seen here

0:12:030:12:06

tells us that it was painted by a young Callow some time before 1840.

0:12:060:12:12

This fact makes it a little bit more unusual,

0:12:130:12:17

as most of the works that come up at auction,

0:12:170:12:19

certainly a lot of the ones that I've seen, are from his later life.

0:12:190:12:22

So what's it worth?

0:12:240:12:26

Well, that's for you to think about.

0:12:260:12:28

While we meet Team Two.

0:12:280:12:30

Welcome, Barbara and Richard.

0:12:300:12:32

Barbara, you are a retired midwife?

0:12:320:12:34

-Yes.

-Gosh, how many babies did you deliver?

0:12:340:12:37

Just over 1,700.

0:12:370:12:39

Did you make a little note of each one?

0:12:390:12:41

We have to keep records for 25 years, so I had to keep records.

0:12:410:12:46

And what do you like to collect?

0:12:460:12:48

Silver mainly, and brooches.

0:12:480:12:50

-What's your best one?

-It's a banjo.

0:12:500:12:53

-Oh, lovely.

-It's not worth a great deal,

0:12:530:12:56

but to me it's absolutely wonderful.

0:12:560:12:58

Exactly, exactly.

0:12:580:12:59

And Richard, welcome to you.

0:12:590:13:01

And what do you collect?

0:13:010:13:03

Well, silver.

0:13:030:13:04

But my main interest is old aircraft books.

0:13:040:13:08

I'm mad keen on aviation, yes.

0:13:080:13:10

Very good. Well, it's lovely to have you here.

0:13:100:13:13

What lot would you like to hear more about?

0:13:130:13:15

I would like to hear more about the toy - the two rowers.

0:13:150:13:19

Well, this is an intriguing little thing, isn't it?

0:13:190:13:22

It's a charming toy canoe that really does ooze retro style.

0:13:220:13:27

It was made by a company called Mobo Sebel.

0:13:280:13:31

It's designed, I think as you all identified, to be pulled along.

0:13:310:13:36

And this movement makes the little clowns, who are the rowers,

0:13:360:13:40

row inside the boat as the child walks along.

0:13:400:13:44

Now, the canoe itself dates to the 1950s,

0:13:440:13:48

the post-war, post-ration period

0:13:480:13:51

in which the toy market became increasingly popular.

0:13:510:13:55

But is it attracting you?

0:13:550:13:57

And if so, what's it worth?

0:13:570:14:00

We'll let you have a think about that while we meet Team Three.

0:14:000:14:04

Welcome, Jan and Mandy.

0:14:040:14:06

Jan, are you all right? You've just your hip replaced, haven't you?

0:14:060:14:09

Well, it was a few years ago, but it is a bit dodgy still.

0:14:090:14:12

-Is it?

-We'll live!

0:14:120:14:15

And tell me about your infamous nun's outfit.

0:14:150:14:18

Oh! Well, that was something I made for a pantomime,

0:14:180:14:21

but it was a bit tricky because it was one of these closed orders,

0:14:210:14:24

and we had these funny hats that were like swans.

0:14:240:14:26

I had to make three of those.

0:14:260:14:28

I hope they got special mention in the programme.

0:14:280:14:31

No! It was only a village panto.

0:14:310:14:33

And Mandy, what do you do?

0:14:330:14:36

I'm a crime scene investigator.

0:14:360:14:38

-Are you?

-Yes.

0:14:380:14:40

So if we were burgled or something, you'd come and check it all out?

0:14:400:14:44

Yes, I would look for fingerprints and DNA,

0:14:440:14:48

and have a good look at the crime scene.

0:14:480:14:51

Try and find out who's done the deed.

0:14:510:14:53

So what would you like to hear more about from Kate?

0:14:530:14:57

I think the vase.

0:14:570:14:59

This is a porcelain vase.

0:14:590:15:01

And it's fashioned in what we would call the neoclassical style.

0:15:010:15:06

It was produced in Italy in the latter part of the 19th century.

0:15:060:15:12

It's a very opulent-looking piece, made of gold-painted porcelain.

0:15:120:15:17

And the decorative scenes are transfer printed,

0:15:170:15:20

and then over-painted.

0:15:200:15:22

Meaning that almost certainly it was produced in substantial numbers.

0:15:220:15:28

It is a genuine antique at well over 100 years old

0:15:280:15:32

and it will appeal to fans of this very neoclassical style.

0:15:320:15:37

But what is it worth?

0:15:370:15:39

Well, thank you, Kate. Thank you very much indeed.

0:15:390:15:42

Teams, now you know some more about the items,

0:15:420:15:44

I hope that helps you as we play Round Two.

0:15:440:15:48

APPLAUSE

0:15:480:15:51

Now, in this round, the pickers will select a lot to play for,

0:15:510:15:54

and the quizzers will again try and secure it by answering correctly.

0:15:540:15:58

But this time around the lots come with their own question categories,

0:15:580:16:02

and here they are.

0:16:020:16:04

So if you wanted the toy, for instance,

0:16:050:16:07

your quizzer would be able to make a choice between

0:16:070:16:10

Physics or Board Games as a question to answer.

0:16:100:16:13

Now, at the end of this round,

0:16:130:16:15

the team with the least valuable collection will be eliminated,

0:16:150:16:18

so choose wisely.

0:16:180:16:20

Right, Team One, you're up first.

0:16:200:16:21

So, Jordan, what's your lot?

0:16:210:16:23

-The painting.

-The painting?

0:16:260:16:28

OK. Bob, Composers or Board Games?

0:16:280:16:31

-Board Games.

-Board Games?

0:16:310:16:33

In chess notation, which playing piece

0:16:330:16:36

is represented by the letter N?

0:16:360:16:38

Knight?

0:16:380:16:39

Yes, it is N for knight

0:16:390:16:42

because it's K for king.

0:16:420:16:44

The painting is yours, well done.

0:16:440:16:46

Richard, what's your lot?

0:16:470:16:49

I'll try for the bowl, please.

0:16:490:16:51

The bowl? Physics or Horror Films, Barbara?

0:16:510:16:54

-Physics?

-OK, here we go.

0:16:550:16:57

On the electromagnetic spectrum,

0:16:580:17:00

what type of radiation can be referred to as UV?

0:17:000:17:04

-Ultraviolet.

-Correct.

0:17:040:17:06

Good. The bowl is yours.

0:17:060:17:07

Mandy, what's your lot?

0:17:090:17:11

I think I'll try for the vase, please.

0:17:110:17:13

The vase? Composers or Children's Literature, Jan?

0:17:130:17:17

I'll have to go for Children's Literature.

0:17:170:17:20

Here we go. Which character created by Julia Donaldson has orange eyes,

0:17:200:17:25

a black tongue and purple prickles all over his back?

0:17:250:17:29

-Sonic the Hedgehog? No, that's...

-It does sound like him, doesn't it?

0:17:290:17:32

If that was a Photofit, you might come up with Sonic.

0:17:320:17:36

The actual answer is the Gruffalo.

0:17:360:17:38

So the vase stays on the board.

0:17:380:17:41

Right, we're going to do this again, but teams,

0:17:410:17:43

have you missed out on that one item you really wanted?

0:17:430:17:46

If so, here's your chance to get your hands on it,

0:17:460:17:49

because from now on you can either go for what's left on the grid,

0:17:490:17:52

or you can try to steal a lot in a rival team's collection.

0:17:520:17:56

But, pickers, be warned.

0:17:560:17:58

If you choose to steal from another team,

0:17:580:18:01

they will get to choose which category your quizzer must face.

0:18:010:18:05

Jordan, you're first. Do you want to pick or steal?

0:18:050:18:07

-Pick.

-What are you going to have?

-The cup and saucer, please.

0:18:080:18:11

The cup and saucer. Bob, Composers or Horror Films?

0:18:110:18:15

-Horror Films.

-Horror Films?

0:18:170:18:19

Who directed the 1968 film Night Of The Living Dead?

0:18:200:18:24

Scorsese?

0:18:240:18:26

Incorrect. George A Romero.

0:18:260:18:28

OK? The cup and saucer stays on the grid.

0:18:280:18:32

Richard, pick or steal?

0:18:320:18:33

Try the toy, please.

0:18:350:18:37

You're going to pick the toy?

0:18:370:18:38

Physics or Board Games, Barbara?

0:18:380:18:40

-Board Games.

-Board Games?

0:18:400:18:42

The electric company and water works appear on the board

0:18:440:18:46

of which popular game?

0:18:460:18:48

-Monopoly.

-Correct. It is Monopoly, the toy is yours.

0:18:480:18:51

Mandy, pick or steal?

0:18:510:18:53

I will pick the vase again, please.

0:18:540:18:56

Pick the vase?

0:18:560:18:57

Jan's so happy about this(!)

0:18:570:18:58

Composers or Children's Literature?

0:18:580:19:00

Oh!

0:19:000:19:02

Children's Literature again.

0:19:020:19:04

Children's Literature.

0:19:040:19:06

Which British author wrote the children's classic

0:19:060:19:08

The Tale Of Jemima Puddle Duck?

0:19:080:19:11

Beatrix Potter?

0:19:110:19:12

Correct, it is, the vase is finally yours.

0:19:120:19:15

We'll have another go at this one.

0:19:170:19:18

Team One, pick or steal?

0:19:180:19:20

I'd like to steal the kovsh, please.

0:19:210:19:23

Right. You want the kovsh,

0:19:230:19:25

which means that Jan and Mandy have to pick a category for Bob.

0:19:250:19:29

-Physics.

-Physics.

0:19:290:19:31

Bob, what name is given to the subatomic particle

0:19:310:19:34

which is negatively charged and orbits the nucleus of an atom?

0:19:340:19:38

-Aeon?

-What a brave guess.

0:19:390:19:42

Electron.

0:19:420:19:44

The kovsh stays with Jan and Mandy.

0:19:440:19:47

Richard, pick or steal?

0:19:470:19:49

The cup and saucer, please.

0:19:490:19:50

The cup and saucer. Composers or Horror Films, Barbara?

0:19:500:19:53

-Composers, please.

-Composers.

0:19:530:19:55

Which iconic Austrian composer learned to play the piano

0:19:550:19:59

at the age of three?

0:19:590:20:00

-Mozart?

-Correct.

0:20:020:20:04

The cup and saucer are yours.

0:20:040:20:05

Mandy, pick or steal?

0:20:070:20:08

The thermometer, please.

0:20:080:20:10

The thermometer? Jan, British Art or Horror Films?

0:20:100:20:14

I'll have British Art, please.

0:20:140:20:16

Here we go.

0:20:160:20:18

A Rake's Progress and Marriage A-La-Mode

0:20:180:20:21

are the best-known works of which 18th-century English artist?

0:20:210:20:25

Is it Holbein?

0:20:250:20:27

Close. William Hogarth.

0:20:270:20:29

OK, the thermometer stays on the grid

0:20:290:20:32

and that is the end of the round,

0:20:320:20:33

so let's see how the collections are looking.

0:20:330:20:36

Bob and Jordan have the watch

0:20:360:20:39

and the painting.

0:20:390:20:40

Barbara and Richard have

0:20:400:20:42

the statuette, the toy,

0:20:420:20:43

the cup and saucer and the bowl.

0:20:430:20:45

And Jan and Mandy have the kovsh,

0:20:450:20:48

the vase and the table.

0:20:480:20:49

OK. For one team, this is now the end of the road.

0:20:490:20:52

Kate has been keeping tabs

0:20:520:20:54

and the team with the least valuable collection will now be eliminated.

0:20:540:20:58

So, Kate, who are we saying goodbye to first?

0:20:580:21:01

I can reveal that the pair leaving us now is...

0:21:010:21:05

..Richard and Barbara.

0:21:110:21:13

Oh!

0:21:130:21:15

Oh. Richard and Barbara.

0:21:160:21:18

APPLAUSE

0:21:180:21:20

I'm very sorry that we are having to say goodbye to you,

0:21:200:21:23

but you're not only leaving the game,

0:21:230:21:25

you are also giving your collection back to us.

0:21:250:21:27

You'd like to know more about it and what it's worth,

0:21:270:21:29

-wouldn't you?

-Yes.

-Over to you, Kate.

0:21:290:21:32

Well, let's have a look at that very varied collection that you amassed.

0:21:320:21:36

First of all, let's have a look at that quirky little toy.

0:21:360:21:40

It oozes retro style.

0:21:400:21:41

It's very colourful, isn't it?

0:21:410:21:44

But it hasn't got any bells and whistles.

0:21:440:21:46

It is just a little simple pull-along.

0:21:460:21:50

It's not a designer who is highly sought after,

0:21:500:21:54

so the value is just £25.

0:21:540:21:57

Oh!

0:21:570:21:58

But then we had the statuette.

0:21:580:22:02

Now, this is a bronze sculpture

0:22:020:22:06

of the Italian violinist Niccolo Paganini,

0:22:060:22:10

and it's sculpted by the French portrait sculptor

0:22:100:22:13

Jean-Pierre Dantan.

0:22:130:22:15

This caricature was so popular

0:22:150:22:18

that hundreds of plaster casts were made of it,

0:22:180:22:21

so, although this is bronze,

0:22:210:22:23

it would have a price tag at auction of £100.

0:22:230:22:27

On we go to the cup and saucer.

0:22:300:22:33

These two pieces are part of the famous Nanking Cargo

0:22:330:22:39

which sank in 1752

0:22:390:22:41

to the bottom of the South China Sea.

0:22:410:22:45

The tea bowl and saucer themselves feature a pattern

0:22:450:22:48

known as the blue pine cone

0:22:480:22:50

and, as you saw, are in extraordinary condition

0:22:500:22:54

considering the ordeal that they've been through.

0:22:540:22:58

Although this has great age and a great story to tell,

0:22:580:23:02

it isn't particularly rare.

0:23:020:23:05

And for that reason,

0:23:050:23:06

this tea bowl and saucer at auction

0:23:060:23:09

would fetch a paltry £60.

0:23:090:23:12

FERN GASPS

0:23:120:23:14

The Lalique bowl is the next thing we have.

0:23:140:23:18

This is an interesting piece that really screams quality.

0:23:180:23:22

All three teams actually looked at that signature.

0:23:220:23:26

So this Art Deco bowl was produced in 1933

0:23:260:23:28

right at the height of the Art Deco period

0:23:280:23:31

and it's a great representation of Lalique's work.

0:23:310:23:35

Mandy, you really used your detective work here, didn't you?

0:23:360:23:39

You honed in on that signature.

0:23:390:23:41

This is a true Lalique piece

0:23:410:23:44

and the value is £600.

0:23:440:23:46

Wow!

0:23:460:23:48

So, that takes your collection, Richard and Barbara,

0:23:480:23:52

to a total value of £785.

0:23:520:23:56

Brilliant. Barbara and Richard, go home feeling pleased with that.

0:23:560:23:59

But I'm so sorry, it is time to bring the hammer down

0:23:590:24:03

on your collection and say thank you for playing For What It's Worth.

0:24:030:24:07

APPLAUSE

0:24:070:24:09

And also, the unclaimed items in the grid are now leaving the game.

0:24:110:24:15

So let's quickly find out from Kate what they're worth.

0:24:150:24:17

And if the top lot is still in the game.

0:24:170:24:20

So, we have the chair to begin with and it dates from around 1860.

0:24:200:24:25

So you weren't far out, Jordan, when you said it was Georgian.

0:24:250:24:28

It is, actually, in the Victorian period.

0:24:280:24:32

The chair is made of rosewood, a lovely exotic wood,

0:24:320:24:36

and has been beautifully hand-carved.

0:24:360:24:38

There are minimal scratches to the feet

0:24:380:24:41

and no damage really to the wood.

0:24:410:24:43

The upholstery is probably original.

0:24:430:24:46

However, though decorative as well as functional,

0:24:460:24:50

the market for Victorian furniture has dramatically changed

0:24:500:24:54

and despite its decorative appeal,

0:24:540:24:56

only worth around £120.

0:24:560:24:59

The jug is next.

0:25:010:25:03

Now, you were both very definite about the jug but were you right?

0:25:030:25:09

This particular example is quite plain,

0:25:090:25:12

it has straight tapered sides and,

0:25:120:25:15

of course, a clear glass handle.

0:25:150:25:17

More elaborate pieces may have moulded frills

0:25:170:25:21

or applied decoration and details.

0:25:210:25:25

So, you were both absolutely right.

0:25:250:25:29

It is today's worthless lot. Well done.

0:25:290:25:32

But next is a little bit more of a puzzle.

0:25:330:25:36

How many silver-encased Victorian travel thermometers

0:25:360:25:40

have you ever seen?

0:25:400:25:43

Well, I have to tell you, I haven't seen another one like it.

0:25:440:25:49

Collectors of scientific instruments and the like

0:25:490:25:52

would give their right arm for this.

0:25:520:25:55

And at auction it would have a price tag of £1,500.

0:25:550:25:59

Astonishing. But it means that the top lot,

0:26:010:26:05

the one worth £2,500 is still in play,

0:26:050:26:09

someone has it in their collection.

0:26:090:26:11

So, teams, congratulations on getting this far.

0:26:110:26:14

You now have one last chance to pick our expert's brains.

0:26:140:26:17

So, which lot do you really need to know more about, Team One?

0:26:170:26:20

The table.

0:26:220:26:23

Ah, the table. Well, this is a beautiful antique side table.

0:26:230:26:27

It's hand-carved with flowers and scrolls.

0:26:270:26:31

But you may also have noticed that there are some surface scratches

0:26:310:26:35

to this piece, a little bit of damage.

0:26:350:26:37

So, it isn't in perfect condition.

0:26:370:26:40

Now, as you may know,

0:26:400:26:42

the Chinese market is extremely strong at the moment and,

0:26:420:26:47

for any Oriental enthusiasts,

0:26:470:26:50

this could be a welcome addition to a collection.

0:26:500:26:53

Could this be a welcome addition for you?

0:26:540:26:58

Mandy and Jan, what would you like to know more about?

0:26:580:27:01

-The watch.

-The gold watch, please.

0:27:010:27:03

The watch, let's have a look at it.

0:27:030:27:04

Well, this is a late 19th-century, possibly even early 20th-century,

0:27:040:27:09

pocket watch.

0:27:090:27:10

It's continental in style with elaborate floral engraving

0:27:100:27:15

and an engraved dial,

0:27:150:27:17

and the case is stamped with the mark for 18 carat gold.

0:27:170:27:22

The double fusee movement is unsigned,

0:27:220:27:27

and the case is unmarked,

0:27:270:27:30

so we will never know exactly who made it.

0:27:300:27:33

So, what does that mean for its value?

0:27:340:27:38

Well, it's now time for our final round

0:27:380:27:40

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

0:27:400:27:43

In this round, I'll show you a category with 12 possible answers.

0:27:460:27:50

Nine of them are correct, three are not.

0:27:500:27:53

Each of you will then take turns to choose an answer

0:27:530:27:56

you think is correct.

0:27:560:27:57

And as it's the final round, both quizzers and pickers will play.

0:27:570:28:00

Pick a wrong answer and your opponents will be able to

0:28:000:28:03

steal a lot from your collection.

0:28:030:28:05

If all nine correct answers are given,

0:28:050:28:08

then the team who gives the final correct answer will be the winners.

0:28:080:28:12

We'll play three questions in total

0:28:120:28:14

and the pair with the most valuable collection

0:28:140:28:16

can choose to go first or second.

0:28:160:28:18

So, Kate, who is that at the moment?

0:28:180:28:22

I can reveal that at the moment, the team who currently has

0:28:220:28:26

the most valuable collection is...

0:28:260:28:29

..Jan and Mandy.

0:28:320:28:34

Oh. OK.

0:28:340:28:36

Jan and Mandy, the first question is...

0:28:360:28:39

..airport codes.

0:28:400:28:41

Can you spot the correct codes used by

0:28:410:28:43

the International Air Transport Association to identify airports?

0:28:430:28:47

Would you like to go first or second on this one?

0:28:470:28:50

-We'll go first.

-First?

0:28:500:28:52

OK. Here are the answers.

0:28:520:28:54

Jan, give me an answer.

0:28:570:28:59

LAX.

0:28:590:29:00

LAX, if it goes green, it's correct.

0:29:040:29:06

Yes, it's LA International.

0:29:070:29:10

Bob, give me an answer.

0:29:100:29:11

-HKG.

-HKG?

0:29:110:29:13

Correct. It is Hong Kong.

0:29:150:29:17

Mandy.

0:29:170:29:19

-LGW.

-LGW?

0:29:190:29:22

Correct. London Gatwick, of course.

0:29:220:29:24

Jordan?

0:29:240:29:26

Um... ATL?

0:29:260:29:27

ATL?

0:29:270:29:29

Correct. That's Atlanta International.

0:29:300:29:33

Jan.

0:29:330:29:34

-JFK?

-JFK.

0:29:340:29:37

Yes. That's the John F Kennedy International Airport in New York.

0:29:380:29:42

-Bob.

-SYD.

0:29:420:29:44

SYD?

0:29:440:29:45

Correct. Sydney.

0:29:460:29:48

Kingsford Smith International.

0:29:480:29:51

-Mandy?

-MAD.

0:29:510:29:53

MAD?

0:29:530:29:54

Correct. Madrid Barajas in Spain.

0:29:560:29:59

-Jordan?

-AMS?

0:29:590:30:00

AMS?

0:30:000:30:02

Yes, Amsterdam Schiphol.

0:30:050:30:07

HE SIGHS WITH RELIEF Oooh!

0:30:070:30:08

One correct answer left on the board.

0:30:080:30:11

Jan, can you find it?

0:30:110:30:13

BIC.

0:30:130:30:15

BIC?

0:30:150:30:16

Oh! Sorry.

0:30:190:30:20

It's wrong.

0:30:200:30:21

No such airport code.

0:30:210:30:23

Oh. Where are the other wrong answers?

0:30:230:30:25

APE, no such airport, and neither is there a BPO airport.

0:30:280:30:32

But DXB was the last correct answer and it was Dubai.

0:30:320:30:37

Well, Bob and Jordan, you can steal a lot from your opponents,

0:30:370:30:41

-what would you like?

-We'll take the kovsh.

0:30:410:30:44

The kovsh is yours.

0:30:440:30:45

Right, Bob and Jordan, this is your question.

0:30:480:30:50

And it is, yoga poses.

0:30:500:30:53

LAUGHTER

0:30:530:30:55

They'll all fit!

0:30:550:30:57

Would you like to go first or second?

0:30:580:31:00

We'll go second!

0:31:000:31:01

Bob's thrilled with this, Jan and Mandy.

0:31:020:31:05

Right, here are the answers.

0:31:050:31:06

Jan, give me an answer.

0:31:100:31:11

-Bridge?

-Bridge, is that correct?

0:31:110:31:14

Correct. It's holding a backward bend.

0:31:150:31:18

-Bob?

-Locust.

0:31:190:31:21

Locust?

0:31:210:31:22

Correct. That involves stretching out your whole body.

0:31:230:31:27

-Mandy?

-Reverse table.

0:31:270:31:30

The reverse table?

0:31:300:31:31

Yes. Making the shape of a table whilst looking upwards.

0:31:330:31:37

-Jordan?

-Feathered peacock.

0:31:370:31:40

Feathered peacock?

0:31:400:31:42

Yes, it's a forearm stand.

0:31:440:31:46

Correct. Well done. Jan.

0:31:460:31:48

-Upward-facing dog.

-Upward-facing dog.

0:31:480:31:51

Correct. A stretch while lying on your front.

0:31:520:31:55

Bob?

0:31:550:31:56

-Easy

-plow. Easy plow?

0:31:580:32:01

Yes. That's an easy version of the difficult plow pose,

0:32:020:32:06

-as you know, Bob.

-Yeah, of course I do, yeah!

0:32:060:32:09

-Mandy.

-Half cobra.

0:32:090:32:12

Half cobra?

0:32:120:32:13

Correct. A half-height cobra stretch.

0:32:150:32:17

-Jordan?

-Reclining pigeon, please.

0:32:190:32:22

Reclining pigeon.

0:32:220:32:24

Yes. It's a pose lying on your back with one leg crossed over the other.

0:32:270:32:32

There is one last correct answer on the grid.

0:32:320:32:36

Poor Jan, it's you again.

0:32:360:32:38

-Oh, dear!

-Where are you going?

-No idea.

0:32:380:32:41

-Hare.

-The hare?

0:32:410:32:43

Yes! It helps to relieve tension in the back and the neck.

0:32:470:32:50

Well done. Obviously the incorrect answers are the finger wave,

0:32:500:32:54

which is a hairstyle from the 1920s.

0:32:540:32:57

Window cleaner. I think we all have one.

0:32:570:33:00

And a tight end which is an American football position.

0:33:000:33:03

Jan and Mandy, that means you can steal a lot from your opponents,

0:33:040:33:08

what would you like?

0:33:080:33:10

Shall we have the kovsh?

0:33:100:33:11

We'll have the kovsh back, please.

0:33:110:33:13

The kovsh back.

0:33:130:33:14

Can we change anything for the last question?

0:33:170:33:20

Jan and Mandy, this is your question and it is...

0:33:200:33:23

..Characters in The Archers.

0:33:250:33:26

You are joking, ain't you?

0:33:290:33:31

Would you like to go first or second, Jan and Mandy?

0:33:310:33:33

Might as well go first and get it over with.

0:33:330:33:36

Here are the answers.

0:33:360:33:38

Jan, give me an answer.

0:33:390:33:41

Pip Archer.

0:33:410:33:43

Pip Archer?

0:33:430:33:44

Correct. Played by Daisy Badger.

0:33:460:33:49

Bob?

0:33:490:33:50

-Hazel Woolley.

-Hazel Woolley?

0:33:500:33:52

Yes. Played by Annette Badland.

0:33:540:33:57

-Mandy?

-Elizabeth Pargetter.

0:33:570:34:00

Elizabeth Pargetter.

0:34:000:34:02

Yes, played by Alison Dowling.

0:34:040:34:06

Jordan?

0:34:060:34:07

Coriander Snell.

0:34:080:34:10

Coriander Snell?

0:34:100:34:11

Yes, played by Alexandra Lilley.

0:34:120:34:15

Jan?

0:34:150:34:16

Amy Franks.

0:34:190:34:20

Amy Franks?

0:34:200:34:21

Yes. She's the vicar's daughter, Alan Franks.

0:34:230:34:26

-Bob?

-Debbie Aldridge.

0:34:270:34:30

Debbie Aldridge?

0:34:300:34:31

Yes. Played by the wonderful Tamsin Greig.

0:34:340:34:37

Mandy?

0:34:370:34:38

William Shepherd.

0:34:400:34:42

William Shepherd?

0:34:420:34:43

Oh!

0:34:460:34:48

He's the inventor of liquid soap.

0:34:480:34:50

Let's have a look at the other wrong answers.

0:34:510:34:53

Daryl Dixon is a fictional archer on The Walking Dead

0:34:540:34:58

and Joseph Henry is an early pioneer of radio technology.

0:34:580:35:03

Well, Bob and Jordan, that means you can steal a lot from your opponents.

0:35:030:35:08

Think carefully, what would you like?

0:35:080:35:11

-I'm thinking of the table.

-Kovsh.

0:35:110:35:13

-Let's go for the kovsh?

-The kovsh. Kovsh, please.

-The kovsh is yours.

0:35:130:35:16

-Here it is. JAN:

-Oh, dear!

0:35:160:35:19

That's it. Your collections are complete

0:35:210:35:23

and will determine which team is victorious.

0:35:230:35:27

Kate, who are today's winners?

0:35:270:35:29

I can reveal that the team with the most valuable collection

0:35:290:35:32

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

0:35:320:35:36

..Bob and Jordan.

0:35:390:35:41

-Unbelievable!

-Congratulations, Bob and Jordan

0:35:440:35:48

but huge commiserations to you, Jan and Mandy.

0:35:480:35:51

But before you leave, I'm sure you want to know

0:35:510:35:53

the value of the things in your collection. So, Kate, tell us.

0:35:530:35:56

Well, let's have a look at the vase first.

0:35:560:35:59

What an eyeful this is.

0:35:590:36:00

A lot of gilt decoration

0:36:000:36:02

and then those two lovely vignettes

0:36:020:36:05

of Italianate classical architecture.

0:36:050:36:08

But the secret to this is in the detail.

0:36:080:36:12

Actually, this detail is printed first.

0:36:120:36:16

It's transfer-printed and then over-painted

0:36:160:36:19

which means that actually this is a method for mass production

0:36:190:36:24

and therefore the value of the piece isn't that high.

0:36:240:36:29

£150.

0:36:290:36:31

Then we have the table.

0:36:330:36:35

It's got the lovely scroll decoration, very Chinese in style.

0:36:350:36:40

It's got those gilt metal mounts that are very eastern looking

0:36:400:36:43

and the chamfers on the supports, a very Chinese detail.

0:36:430:36:48

The Chinese market, of course, is very buoyant for some pieces

0:36:480:36:53

but this is a fairly standard piece of furniture.

0:36:530:36:56

But the value actually is around £300.

0:36:560:37:00

So, that gives you a total value for your collection of £450.

0:37:020:37:08

Jan and Mandy, thank you so much for playing For What It's Worth.

0:37:080:37:11

APPLAUSE

0:37:110:37:14

Bob and Jordan, congratulations, you are today's winners.

0:37:170:37:20

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

0:37:200:37:24

We now know that you must have the top lot in your collection.

0:37:240:37:28

All you have to do is pick one of the lots

0:37:280:37:30

that are sitting in front of you

0:37:300:37:32

and we will give you its value in cash.

0:37:320:37:35

So, which one do you want to choose?

0:37:350:37:37

-Which one are you thinking of?

-They had the top one with the two,

0:37:380:37:42

-didn't they?

-Yeah.

-So, the only way they had two bigger things,

0:37:420:37:45

they only had 600, 900, it must be the kovsh.

0:37:450:37:48

It's got to be. We'll keep the kovsh.

0:37:480:37:50

The kovsh? Absolutely certain?

0:37:500:37:52

-Yeah, definitely.

-Final decision?

0:37:520:37:54

-Final, final.

-OK.

0:37:540:37:56

Well, goodbye watch, goodbye painting. Hey!

0:37:560:37:59

Before we tell you what the kovsh is worth,

0:37:590:38:02

Kate is going to tell you what you haven't won.

0:38:020:38:06

Well, we have the painting.

0:38:060:38:07

You looked at the front, you looked at the back,

0:38:070:38:09

you saw that gallery label,

0:38:090:38:11

you didn't particularly like it, did you?

0:38:110:38:14

But we know it's William Callow,

0:38:140:38:17

he's a sought-after watercolour artist.

0:38:170:38:20

So, what's it worth?

0:38:200:38:22

£500.

0:38:220:38:23

Next, of course, we have the watch.

0:38:250:38:28

And you were right, it is gold.

0:38:280:38:31

Pocket watches are still highly collectable.

0:38:310:38:34

This is a lovely continental example.

0:38:340:38:38

It doesn't matter that we haven't got a maker's name,

0:38:380:38:40

it still has a hefty price tag...

0:38:400:38:42

..of £800.

0:38:440:38:45

Well... Bob and Jordan...

0:38:480:38:51

You have won the value of the kovsh

0:38:510:38:55

which we know is the top lot and we know it's worth £2,500.

0:38:550:39:01

APPLAUSE

0:39:010:39:03

You've played this game so well,

0:39:050:39:08

but can we tempt you to swap it for the mystery lot

0:39:080:39:12

which could be worth even more?

0:39:120:39:15

APPLAUSE

0:39:150:39:16

So, Bob and Jordan,

0:39:180:39:21

as things stand, you have won the value in cash of this kovsh.

0:39:210:39:26

We know it's the top lot.

0:39:260:39:28

We know it's worth £2,500.

0:39:280:39:30

But can Kate tempt you with today's mystery lot?

0:39:300:39:35

Let's very carefully reveal it.

0:39:350:39:38

Ooh!

0:39:410:39:42

This is a bottle of perfume

0:39:420:39:44

which was created in the early 19th century.

0:39:440:39:48

Now, it's very rare indeed to find a bottle of perfume from the 1800s

0:39:490:39:55

in which the liquid still survives, as you can see.

0:39:550:39:59

Even if it has developed a viscous sap-like consistency

0:39:590:40:02

over the two centuries that it's been residing

0:40:020:40:06

in its little modest home in there.

0:40:060:40:08

It is a completely unique and personalised scent

0:40:090:40:15

designed by none other

0:40:150:40:17

than Lord Byron himself.

0:40:170:40:21

And in case you don't believe me,

0:40:210:40:23

there is his seal in wax confirming its authenticity.

0:40:230:40:29

So, what you have to decide is how much value is added

0:40:290:40:34

by its incredible provenance?

0:40:340:40:36

I can see you looking at the kovsh, looking at the perfume,

0:40:360:40:41

now you're both in a quandary, aren't you?

0:40:410:40:43

I think it's lower. I don't think there's a lot in it

0:40:430:40:46

but I think that's lower. I'd say that was about 2,000.

0:40:460:40:49

You think this is about 2,000?

0:40:490:40:51

I say that's more. I don't know why.

0:40:510:40:53

-No. No.

-What attracts you to it, Jordan, is it the history?

0:40:530:40:56

The history, yeah. And who actually owned it.

0:40:560:40:59

I still think, no.

0:40:590:41:01

Definitely. That's worth more.

0:41:010:41:04

OK. What's your decision, final decision?

0:41:040:41:07

Are you going to stick with Grandad?

0:41:070:41:08

Yeah, let's go with this.

0:41:080:41:10

OK. Bob and Jordan, you're sticking with the kovsh.

0:41:100:41:14

That means you've won its worth in cash, £2,500.

0:41:140:41:18

APPLAUSE

0:41:180:41:21

-But?

-Let's have a look!

0:41:210:41:23

But, Kate, tell us what they've thrown away.

0:41:230:41:27

Well, I don't envy you because this is a very tricky one.

0:41:290:41:32

It's a unique item.

0:41:320:41:34

There isn't another one like it.

0:41:360:41:38

Byron personalised his perfume.

0:41:380:41:41

It's got a unique smell that was just his.

0:41:420:41:45

And there it is, still surviving today

in relatively very good condition in its vessel.

0:41:480:41:52

And it's actually got quite an appealing scent as well.

0:41:520:41:55

So, for perfume collectors, how much appeal does it actually have?

0:41:550:42:00

The value would be...

0:42:040:42:05

..£400.

0:42:060:42:09

Much less!

0:42:110:42:12

Really?

0:42:140:42:16

-Really.

-That doesn't seem much for a piece of fabulous history.

0:42:160:42:19

Well, well done, Bob.

0:42:190:42:21

You were right on the money there.

0:42:210:42:23

Now, during the game,

0:42:230:42:24

we didn't have a single explanation about this kovsh.

0:42:240:42:27

-Is it Russian?

-It is, actually,

0:42:270:42:28

a traditional drinking vessel that originates from Russia.

0:42:280:42:32

It's made of 88 zolotnik standard silver.

0:42:330:42:36

Now, you noticed that 88, Jordan,

0:42:360:42:40

you're the only one that spotted it, in fact.

0:42:400:42:43

But did you know what it meant?

0:42:430:42:45

It's a standard of silver that Carl Faberge,

0:42:450:42:48

who you may of heard of, worked in.

0:42:480:42:51

But this piece was actually created by the Khlebnikov factory.

0:42:510:42:56

Big rivals of Faberge and contemporaries of his at the time.

0:42:560:43:01

It was my favourite piece today.

0:43:010:43:03

You've played a blinding game and, of course,

0:43:030:43:06

it is the top lot

0:43:060:43:08

and the value is £2,500.

0:43:080:43:11

-Well done.

-Thanks.

0:43:110:43:13

Just brilliant.

0:43:130:43:15

Thank you, Kate, for lending us all your expertise

0:43:150:43:17

and, thank you for watching. We'll see you next time

0:43:170:43:20

when more teams will be trying to spot the lot to win the lot

0:43:200:43:22

on For What It's Worth. Goodbye for now.

0:43:220:43:24

Really, really thrilled!
