Episode 23 of 25

Nigel Havers hosts as five dealers bid to buy items brought in by the public, including a giant fibreglass gorilla and a 50-year-old bottle of rum.

Nigel Havers welcomes five more sellers to the Bidding Room, where they try to sell items to professional dealers who are on the lookout for interesting pieces, with help from expert Simon Bower.

First through the doors is Ben, with a giant funfair gorilla he bought at a salvage yard. It鈥檚 a truly unique item, but which of our dealers will want it?

Arriving next is Rebecca, with a 1940s drinks cabinet and lamp. It鈥檚 unique but still functional and collectable, so can Rebecca get the amount she wants to donate to charity?

Next in is Ray, with a 50-year-old bottle of naval rum with a fascinating heritage. Can Ray use the nautical connection to start a bidding war?

Banaras has brought in a 1915 silk cloth with an aviation connection. Will it fly high with the dealers and reach the price that he鈥檚 after?

Lastly, Vivian wants to sell a plucky piece that has been in her family for generations. Can her unusual musical instrument help her dance towards a great sale?

Today's dealers are Ian, Adi, JB, Sam and Jo.
