Episode 1
Five dealers bid against each other for items brought in by the public, including a tribal mask, vintage seed drill, decorative press, toy horse and a mysterious Edwardian piece.
Nigel Havers welcomes four more sellers to the Bidding Room, where they try to sell items to five professional dealers who are on the lookout for interesting pieces, with help from expert Simon Bower.
First through the doors is Annalisa, with a unique piece of farming history. Will the dealers work out what it is, and can Annalisa convince them to buy?
Also facing the dealers are mother Jennifer and daughters Ann and Gina, with a fascinating tribal mask bought from their local school. Simon helps them work out where it came from before they face the dealers. Using their new knowledge, can they strike a good deal?
Third up is Paddy, who baffles the dealers with a piece of photographic kit from Edwardian times – can the dealers work out what it is and see the value?
Fourth into the bidding room is Beverley, with a unique piece, originally used for printing patterns onto material. It’s one of the most impressive examples some of the dealers have ever seen. Can she press them to pay the price she is after?
Last to try her luck with the buyers is Chrissy, with a charming family heirloom - a toy horse and cart - that she hopes will see her galloping off with a tidy profit.
Today's dealers are Adi, Ian, James, Jane and Tash. Will any of them spend? And if they do, will any of them match, or even top, the valuation placed on each of the items?
