00:00We've got two celebs for the price of one, haven't we?
00:01Oh dear.
00:02Because he's helping more of our best-loved celebrities...
00:05Hello!
00:06Hey!
00:07Tuck your shirt in.
00:09Yeah, well, I've been working.
00:10...turn their belongings into cold, hard cash.
00:13Come on!
00:14This is my grandma's old wireless.
00:17He visits their magnificent homes...
00:19It's not often you come to somebody who has a windmill.
00:22...seeking out collectibles...
00:24Yeah, this looks nice.
00:25What do you think of this?
00:27...keepsakes from their careers...
00:29Please don't drop them.
00:30Those are staying.
00:31I was just looking.
00:32...and stuff they no longer need...
00:34We have this fridge here.
00:35Yeah, okay.
00:36...to sell back at his auction house...
00:38Oh, wow!
00:40This is like an Aladdin's cave for me.
00:43Well, it looks fantastic here.
00:44...turning their possessions...
00:465,100.
00:47I like it.
00:48...into piles of money.
00:51Boom!
00:59La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
01:03La, la, la, la, la, la...
01:06La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la...
01:11Yeah, what do you think?
01:13Why are you singing?
01:14No, I'm practising, because I'm going to go see somebody, and if I'm good, you never know.
01:18Could I have a duo, could get an album?
01:20I mean, they've got four Brit Awards.
01:21Who are you seeing?
01:22Russell Watson.
01:22Oh, Russell Watson. He's been belting out operatic bangers for 25 years, singing his way into the nation's hearts and shifting 7 million albums in the process.
01:37He's performed world over to presidents, popes and even Premier League footballers. Not bad for a lad from Salford.
01:45Can you imagine if I walked on stage and went, you all right, I've got a couple of numbers for you now. We're going to start right with Pacini and Nessun Dorma. Are you up for it?
01:58Wow, Angus, you were in for a treat. Who knew Russell fancied himself as a bit of an impressionist?
02:04Whenever I try to do like an impersonation of anybody speaking Italian, I end up sounding like Jose Mourinho.
02:10It's when I do this thing with my voice and then all of a sudden I think, wait a minute, I've become Jose.
02:18Ever since I could speak, I've mimicked everyone around me. No, seriously, I mean, I think when I do the Paul O'Grady, it's spot on.
02:28Not bad, not bad. The man of many talents lives with his wife Louise in this gorgeous Cheshire farmhouse, which they moved into three years ago.
02:37We wake up every morning, we can't believe our luck, can we?
02:40Yeah, it's an amazing place. Fell in love with it the moment we drove up the pathway to it and saw the open countryside and the beautiful view. That was it.
02:51So far, so good. So, why the call to Angus?
02:55I'm a hoarder, a natural hoarder. I don't like to get rid of things because certain specific items to me denote memories from certain times.
03:04But stylistically, this place is very different to the other house that we lived in. This house has got lower ceilings, it's got beams.
03:13The other place had more of a modern feel, so a lot of the stuff hasn't quite worked.
03:19Oh, my word, look at that, it's a view. The menagerie waiting, we've got sheep, horses, animals everywhere.
03:27I tell you, this looks like my sort of house, this does. Incredible.
03:31We're hoping Angus is able to take some stuff away today, hopefully.
03:36I'm sure he'll do his best, Louise. Now, Angus, compose yourself. For this job, you'll need to be pitch perfect.
03:42Ah-ha! Morning!
03:46Hello there, how are you? I'm very well, thank you.
03:48This is my wife, by the way, Louise. Hi, how are you doing? You all right?
03:51Lovely to meet you. Yeah, and you. We have coffee and crumpets at the radio.
03:54Oh, brilliant. Come on, definitely coming in.
03:59What an amazing place you've got. I mean, this is just incredible.
04:03Well, the view's what sold it us. It's amazing.
04:05Clearly a huge love of animals. Just a little bit.
04:08How is that? I mean, a lot of people obviously talk to their animals a lot, which is really important.
04:11Do you, like, sing to them when nobody's around? Is it a...?
04:14I do. My shih tzu's sort of, like, crawling around the floor here somewhere.
04:18She follows me everywhere, and when I do start doing my scales,
04:22she'll sit literally down by the side of me.
04:25And as I start, particularly when I start going up for the higher notes,
04:28she will howl with me.
04:30There you go.
04:31How is it that I can help today?
04:33You think I'm a hoarder, don't you?
04:35Everything's sentimental. Everything's got a story.
04:38Yeah.
04:39But we can't keep everything, Angus.
04:41You've got an accumulation of items, and you need to just have a little fin out.
04:44Yeah.
04:45Yeah.
04:45Well, shall we have a look round, then?
04:47OK.
04:48Don't worry, Russell. It'll be fine. It'll be fine.
04:52Show you the way.
04:53Oh, OK.
04:54Right. Let's see what Russell's got planned for the overture.
04:58Oh, wow. It's a snooker room.
05:01What we've got here is this...
05:02Oh, well, yeah.
05:03This one's very special to me.
05:04Um, it's my first gold disc.
05:08100,000 sales?
05:09Just in the UK?
05:10In the UK alone, yeah.
05:12So, obviously, you've not taken the gold disc.
05:14But what we have got, and this is, er...
05:16The platinum disc of my second album.
05:21OK.
05:22Encore.
05:22Encore.
05:23Yeah.
05:23I'm sure we'd definitely find some massive fans that would love that.
05:27Ooh, very show-busy.
05:29Putting the money towards anything that we raise?
05:31Yeah, I'd like to donate some of the money to brain tumour research.
05:35In that period, 2006, that was what took the train off the tracks for a while.
05:41Russell had been experiencing terrible headaches for a year
05:45when he received a shocking diagnosis.
05:48The first tumour came along and was operated on,
05:51and for a while, everything seemed all right.
05:53The second one came along and went to bed one night,
05:56and unexpectedly, the thing had groaned twice the size
05:59and haemorrhage while I was asleep and left me unconscious,
06:02and had to have emergency surgery on that.
06:04Thankfully, survived.
06:05Started 25 treatments of radiotherapy,
06:08and the recovery from that took a very long time.
06:12You know, I got so much incredible support
06:14and letters and flowers and everything coming through every day.
06:18It was really quite touching.
06:21That was a point where I began to reassess and re-evaluate my life.
06:25I wanted a better balance between family, friends and work,
06:30and that's pretty much what I got.
06:33We'll try and endeavour to do as well as we can.
06:35We'll take good care of that one.
06:37Now, what's next on the concert programme, I wonder?
06:40This may not say cliché, but do you, like, practise in the shower,
06:43your singing, or is that...?
06:44Not usually.
06:45If I'm doing regular vocal scales, I'll come in here,
06:48cos this is one of the most resonant rooms in the house,
06:51cos it's got hard flooring and...
06:53And a pair of keen opera buffs by the look of it.
06:56Imagine you could probably sing, actually, Angus.
06:59Let's try a...
07:00La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
07:06La!
07:09Wow.
07:10That's shocking.
07:14I think it's time to do what you best do.
07:16Yeah, fine.
07:16Fine.
07:17Oh, fuck.
07:18Sorry, Russell.
07:20Just through here?
07:21The only tenor Angus knows anything about
07:23is the one that folds up into a wallet.
07:26Welcome to my man cave, Angus.
07:28Wow.
07:29It's quite the room of accolades.
07:30I mean, how many?
07:32Yeah, four Brit Awards.
07:34Russell picked up his first classical Brit Award in 2001.
07:39They're not for sale, by the way.
07:40No, no, well, I didn't think they were.
07:42I mean, you know, I'll just check it, yeah.
07:44But I do have something that is for sale from that era.
07:48Oh, OK.
07:48This is the white silk suit
07:51that I wore when I collected my second two Brits.
07:55Wow.
07:55I had this handmade by a chap called William Hunt,
08:00who's a Savile Row tailor.
08:01Yeah.
08:02And it's pure silk, this, I believe.
08:04It's in a marvellous suit.
08:06It's just unfortunate about the colour.
08:08But under the light, actually, on the night,
08:11it did look pretty good.
08:13Yeah, I think somebody that's a big fan of yours
08:15is going to love that.
08:16It's the suit you wore at the Brits,
08:18and I think that just adds that bit of gravitas.
08:20If there's a dapper Russell fan on sale day,
08:23this could make up to £200.
08:26I mean, are you happy for me to just have a wonder?
08:29I think so, yes.
08:30Just don't take too much stuff away.
08:33All right, leave me to it.
08:34I'll have a look round.
08:36Louise, I think, is happy for me to take anything.
08:38Russell, I think he'll let a few bits go,
08:40but, you know, he's quite attached.
08:41Everything means something, and I get it.
08:44I've just got to tread that line
08:45between keeping Russell happy, Louise happy.
08:49Get some bits away, but maybe not too much.
08:52We'll see what I can get.
08:53Well, now you're off the leash to roam free, Angus,
08:55you can, er, take your time.
08:59Mmm, this looks nice.
09:01The Ulysse Nardin.
09:03And it's probably a make that a lot of people
09:04aren't familiar with,
09:05unless you're really into your watches and timepieces.
09:09He was founded in 1846 in Switzerland,
09:12home of all the top watchmakers.
09:14But what Nardin did was they specialised on chronographs.
09:19In fact, they are arguably the world's leading manufacturer
09:23of chronograph watches and timepieces.
09:26A chronograph is a timepiece with a stopwatch mechanism.
09:30Russell was gifted this 18-karat gold one
09:33as a thank you after a performance.
09:36We're probably somewhere between 1,000 and 2,000
09:37on a watch like this,
09:38so, er, really nice thing.
09:44Uh-oh.
09:46Not more singing.
09:48La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
09:56Hang on, what's going on here?
09:58La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
10:06Yeah, very funny, Russell.
10:08Anyway, this fender of yours is off to auction.
10:12It can get a closer look back in Kirby Moorside.
10:14As well as the guitar, there's a clarinet up for grabs.
10:21So, once that and those musical mementos are loaded up, it could be job done.
10:33Hey.
10:34Oh, unless Louise wants to sneak something on the van too.
10:38Is this your saddle?
10:39Yeah, it has been on my previous horses.
10:42Yeah.
10:42But it's no use for it now.
10:43Oh, OK.
10:44Made by British saddle maker Albion,
10:47this dressage saddle could add around 50 pounds to the pot.
10:51Plenty of horse riders round here.
10:52We'll take that.
10:56And with that, it's almost time to hit the road.
11:00What a day.
11:01Not a huge amount to sell.
11:02There's a few choice bits.
11:04Obviously, the watch is probably the star item in terms of value.
11:06It's platinum disc.
11:08But I've had a wonderful day and, you know,
11:10I've just got to practise hard now, ready for our duet on sale day.
11:14Oh, please say he's joking.
11:16Thank you very much.
11:17It's been an absolute pleasure.
11:18It's been lovely.
11:19I'm going to practise in the van on the way home.
11:21See you soon.
11:22La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
11:24It's nice to see him putting so much effort into it as well.
11:28Stay sharp, Angus.
11:29If you pitch this sale right,
11:31Russell could be in for a nice little earner.
11:49Now, then.
11:50What a glorious day.
11:52What's he got?
11:52Yeah, not a lot, but some interesting bits.
11:54A white silk suit.
11:56To be honest, that's more you than me.
11:57I don't think it is me.
11:59Russell's modest haul will need to be researched,
12:02put into lots and entered into the online catalogue
12:05in time for the auction.
12:10There are two names that are synonymous with guitars.
12:13Gibson and Fender.
12:15And we've got here Russell's Fender Stratocaster.
12:18And we've got here Russell's Fender Stratocaster.
12:18So Fender, sort of, as a corporation, was properly founded in 1946.
12:23And their first, sort of, well-known guitar was the Esquire,
12:27which later became a Telecaster that came out in 1950.
12:29Then, in 54,
12:31then, in 54, Leo Fender, who was the founder of the company, wanted to, sort of, do a change design.
12:37And from that design came the Stratocaster.
12:39The Stratocaster's slimline, contoured shape was a revolutionary design, making for a comfortable fit into the player's body.
12:48So the Stratocaster's quite popular in, sort of, blues, rock and stuff.
12:52It's got a very versatile sound.
12:55Eric Clapton had one.
12:56Jimi Hendrix had a white Strat that was famously played at Woodstock.
13:00That sold for two million.
13:02Wowzers. And Russell's?
13:04So, auction, Fender's always do well, especially Stratocaster's.
13:08With this one being a late 2000s model, you're looking at an estimate of, sort of, six, nine hundred.
13:12I think it'll do comfortably within that range, possibly a bit better, depending on the day.
13:18Thanks, Charlotte.
13:22Hi, Angus.
13:22I'm just having a look at this ring, and I'm not quite sure if it's 18 karat white gold or platinum.
13:28The mark in there, it's a very tiny stamp anyway, and I can see that it says something 50, but I can't see if it's 750 or 950.
13:37Ah.
13:37A 750 stamp indicates the piece is 75% gold and 25% other metals, like nickel or palladium,
13:46which give it its white colour.
13:49950 means it's 95% pure platinum.
13:53So, you're going to try and, sort of, clean that and...
13:55Yeah.
13:55I mean, there'll be a big difference in price.
13:57It's got some weight to it, so, I mean, it's 32 grams.
14:00Yeah, 32 grams, platinum, 450, 500.
14:03White gold, you're pushing 1,500 pounds, aren't you?
14:04Yeah, so, sort of, triple the price, really.
14:06Yeah.
14:06Russell was given this ring by a concert promoter following a show in Tokyo.
14:11Fingers crossed it's 18 karat.
14:13Well, I'll let you get it cleaned up.
14:15Let me know, Charlotte, all right?
14:16I will.
14:27Hi, Elliot.
14:28Oh, hi.
14:29How are we doing?
14:30Louise and Russell have travelled up with Shih Tzu muffin and Pomeranian wolfie.
14:35How are you?
14:35Lovely to see you.
14:36Looking very dapper.
14:38Well, you know, try.
14:40How are you doing, Russell?
14:41We've got the family.
14:42The family, aren't I?
14:43And how are we feeling about the auction?
14:45Excited.
14:45We can't wait.
14:46Yeah, looking forward to it.
14:47It's my first one, so...
14:48OK.
14:49Come on in and have a look round.
14:50Come on.
14:51Thanks, Angus.
14:55Wonderful.
14:56Head on through, and I'll catch up with you in a bit.
14:57Thank you very much.
14:58Thank you, Angus.
15:02Ooh.
15:02Wow.
15:04This is cool.
15:05This is where it all happens.
15:06Yeah.
15:07Really excited.
15:08You know, not a lot of lots in.
15:09They've got some good bits.
15:11I always dreamt of being things that I wasn't very good at.
15:14Like a rock guitarist.
15:17Oh, yeah.
15:19Now, I can strum out a tune on a guitar, but I ain't no Jimmy Page.
15:26Russell has set a couple of reserves, which might be a little bit ambitious, but we'll see.
15:31Oh, the watch.
15:34Hoping for great things from that today.
15:36The watch is probably a standout item, so we'll see how we get on.
15:41Starting to get excited, actually.
15:43You can feel the tension in the room is palpable.
15:45I am looking forward to seeing if my saddle will sell.
15:50Yes.
15:50I hope it will.
15:50Yes, because that saddle has been in the way for years.
15:55Russell and Louise have ten lots in today's sale, and a line-up of top talent to help shift them.
16:01Our divas waiting in the wings for internet bids are the two Charlottes, while the three tenors, Joe, Mark and Sammy, all have phone buyers on the line.
16:13But this moment belongs to our very own maestro.
16:17Here he comes, the Yorkshire Pavarotti.
16:20It's Angus.
16:21We've got Russell here.
16:24How are you?
16:25Are you OK, ladies?
16:26And he's even given me singing lessons.
16:28Go on.
16:29La, la, la, la, la, la, la.
16:31I've got a bit of a chest infection.
16:32It's not working today.
16:35First up, the ring, which Charlotte scrubbed up and found to be 18-carat white gold, which is good news for Russell.
16:43You got this, was it on tour you got this, didn't you?
16:46Yeah, from Tokyo.
16:47I was presented with the ring.
16:49I just don't like jewellery.
16:51I struggle to wear my wedding ring.
16:53I bet you do.
16:54Well, no.
16:56That's welded on, is that one.
16:59Wish me for this one.
17:00We can open at £1,200.
17:02£1,200, open your bid.
17:03At £1,200 and bid.
17:04£1,200 and bid.
17:05£1,250.
17:06£1,300.
17:08£1,350.
17:09I've got £1,380.
17:10£1,440.
17:12£1,440.
17:12I'm out.
17:13At £1,400 it is then.
17:14At £1,400 it is then.
17:16For the Tokyo Tour ring, starting at £1,400.
17:21Not bad, eh, Russell?
17:23Hey!
17:24It's the Fender Stratocaster next, but any wannabe Hendrix says will have to fork out at least £900, which is Russell's reserve.
17:33I don't want this to sell.
17:34I reluctantly let it go on my wife's recommendation.
17:38Well, actually, he went out for a cup of tea and she said, Angus, get the stuff in the van.
17:42That's what she said.
17:43We're at £5,40.
17:44At £5,40.
17:44Ah, come on, it's worth all of this.
17:46£5,60, let's go.
17:47At £5,60, come on, ladies and gentlemen.
17:49I mean, this gentleman's sung for the poem.
17:51£5,80, that's done it.
17:52£5,80, £600, £600 a bid.
17:54£6,20, £40, £60, £6,60, £6,60.
17:56At £6,80, £700, £700 a bid.
17:58At £7,20, £40, £60, £7,80.
18:00£6,80, £8,80, £8,20, £8,40.
18:02Go on, Angus.
18:03£6,80, £8,80, at £8,80 it is.
18:06Then at £8,80, £900 I have.
18:09At £900 it is.
18:10Gobbles up.
18:11Last call at £900.
18:14Oof.
18:15Angus just about got that one over the line.
18:18Ah!
18:21Next, it's Russell's platinum disc, which he's popped a £200 reserve on.
18:26I'm sure if somebody pays a good price, we can get it personally signed
18:29and dedicated to you at the back, if you like.
18:32Yeah.
18:32£100 start me.
18:34Uh-oh.
18:35Oh.
18:36£100, surely, £100 for the platinum.
18:39£100, we're off at £100, £100 it is then.
18:42£100 it is then, £100 it is then, £100, £110, £10, £10, £10, £120, £130, £140, £150, £150, £160, £160, £170, £180.
18:52That £180.
18:54Do you know how many albums you have to sell for this?
18:56At £180, we're all done at £180.
18:58£20.
19:02£20 short of the reserve, Angus shuts down the sale.
19:06Oh, blimey.
19:07Let's hope there's some snappy dresses out there.
19:10Don't know what you're thinking wearing this at the Brit Awards,
19:12but it seemed like a good idea at the time.
19:15Right, where should we be for this?
19:16A couple of £100 for it.
19:19Oh, come on.
19:20It's iconic.
19:22Bit of British music history.
19:24£200?
19:26I think nobody wants to take it from you, that's the...
19:28Ah, I appreciate it there.
19:31Ah well, this shiny number's heading back to Cheshire.
19:37Maybe Angus can get the punters geed up again with Louisa's lot.
19:41The dressage saddle, there we go.
19:43As used by a very prestigious dressage rider.
19:47I'm not sure about that, it's very kind.
19:48Wow.
19:50There we go, and we go straight in.
19:52I've got £30 bid.
19:53£30, £30, let's go.
19:54It's a good saddle, this there.
19:55£30, £32, £5, £8, £38, £48, £40, £40, £42, £22, £42 it is then at £42.
20:01£42 a bid at £42, £55, £88, £48 it is then at £48, £50, £50 it is then at £50.
20:07At £50 it is then at £50, it's like a horse race, isn't it?
20:09At £55 it is then at £55, £60, £60 it is then at £60, £60 it is then at £60, I'm trying at £60, £60, £60 it is then at £60.
20:22This one's cantered off to a local bidder.
20:25Whee-hey!
20:27Thank God that's gone.
20:31Don't look away yet, Muffin, cos over the next few minutes, Angus sees off another four lots.
20:36Including...
20:38£42.
20:39A Victorian rocking chair with faux leather seat and tapestry footstool and...
20:45It's £70.
20:47The clarinet by London instrument makers Boozy and Hawks.
20:54That's good.
20:55Yeah.
20:55Which brings this performance to its grand finale.
20:59The Olysse Nardin 18-carat gold chronograph watch that Russell was given as a gift.
21:05A great watch is this, there we go, we've got three phone lines, yes, where are we?
21:09One, two, three, straight in at £3,600, £36, £36, £37, £37 a bid, £38, £38, £39, £4,000 a bid.
21:17It's already doubled its top estimate.
21:19£41, £42, £42, £43, £44, £44, £45, £46, £4,600 a bid.
21:25At £46 it is then.
21:26At £46 it is then.
21:27That's good.
21:28The bid's on commission, I'm going to go to line one.
21:29£47, no, £47, £48, £48, £49.
21:33It's a good watch.
21:36£49.
21:38Two phone bidders are out, and the third?
21:41£49.
21:42Oh, that was exciting, all the phone bids are out.
21:44At £4,800.
21:46At £48 it is then.
21:47£49.
21:48Ooh.
21:49I've got two of you come in, I've got 5-1 here.
21:53£5,100.
21:54Blimey.
21:55We're all done.
21:56Final call for the watch then at £5,100.
21:58Phone lines are out in the cell.
21:59At 5-1.
22:02How's that for a high note?
22:04Aye.
22:05Congratulations, I have just won that.
22:07Marvellous.
22:09That was you done.
22:10Russell is hoping to donate some of today's cash to brain tumour research.
22:15So let's hope Angus has a healthy son for the pot.
22:30Hello.
22:31Hello.
22:31I thought you were brilliant.
22:33We were so impressed with your artistry and how you move things along so incredibly quickly.
22:40Any particular lot you were happy with?
22:43The watch just kept going up, didn't it?
22:45Which was really good.
22:46Loads of people in it.
22:47Good watch.
22:48Watch market strong.
22:49So you'd be taking home a grand total of £7,007.
22:53My gosh.
22:54There we are.
22:55That's pretty good.
22:56From our perspective, it was a great experience.
23:01I'm really pleased with how it went.
23:03Great day.
23:04Lovely part of the world.
23:05Sun shining.
23:06What more could you ask for?
23:07As an experience, brilliant.
23:08And we sold some stuff as well, which was great.
23:10The wash, we thought it'd do well, but that was the absolute star of the show.
23:15Delighted with that.
23:16Overall, quite a decent sum of money.
23:18I think Louise will be ringing me when he's out on tour to come and clear the rest of it out.
23:22You all right, Jay?
23:30I am.
23:31How are you?
23:31Yeah, I'm in character, look.
23:33I can see your Yorkshire outfit, Tom.
23:35Yeah, well, I'm going to see somebody from, well, some would argue one of the best soaps.
23:39Certainly, location's the best, I think.
23:43EastEnders?
23:44It's in London.
23:45Coronation Street?
23:45Wrong side of the Pennines.
23:47Emmerdale.
23:47Emmerdale, Yorkshire, yeah.
23:49Yorkshire's their own site.
23:50So I'm going to see Roxy play Leila in Emmerdale.
23:52Oh, wow.
23:54Roxy Shahidi, the screenwriter, yoga guru and podcaster, is a bona fide fess.
24:01Starting her acting career on the stage back in 2004, before radio, then TV beckoned.
24:07Her biggest role came in 2008, that of ditzy and fun-loving Leila Harding on Emmerdale,
24:15set in God's own county.
24:17I think the experience rubbed off on her a bit.
24:19Oh, my God.
24:20I love Yorkshire so much.
24:21I think they're the friendliest people in the world, the best rolling hills, best tea shop.
24:25I get up to so much crazy stuff.
24:27It's rock and roll in Yorkshire with me.
24:30Roxy's rock and roll hangout is this cute 19th century period home near the centre of York
24:37that she shares with her husband, daughter and two cats.
24:41It's a Victorian terrace and we've got all the classic fireplaces and the original floor tiling.
24:48And just all of these little quirky things that make it feel unique.
24:52They've been here two years.
24:55Plenty of time for Roxy to market with her own personal style.
24:58I'm a collector of what my husband would probably call tapped,
25:03but what I like to call is like vintage vines.
25:06So I love a picture, I love a vase, I love a rug, a side table.
25:10I've always got stuff from like vintage shops and auctions.
25:14Lovely home and nice things.
25:17So why the call to Angus?
25:19We'll be moving house soon.
25:20And I've just decided to clear just some little bits and bobs
25:24that I just didn't want to kind of take with us.
25:27Gotcha. Angus, it's over to you.
25:30I hope Roxy's in when we get there.
25:32I always have this, you know, horrible vision that we get to her house and...
25:36Well, you got the wrong day.
25:37Yeah.
25:38I never really feel sad to see things go.
25:41It sounds so cheesy.
25:42We don't really own anything, do we?
25:43We just take care of objects.
25:45And I like lots of objects, but I'm really good at just giving them away.
25:49Well, you won't be giving anything away on Angus's watch, Roxy.
25:53He'll do his best to make you a nice pot of cash.
25:59Hi!
25:59Hi, how are you doing?
26:00Hi, nice to meet you, Angus.
26:02Charlotte.
26:02Nice to meet you.
26:02Nice to meet you, Charlotte.
26:03Come on in.
26:09We're delighted to be in York, aren't we?
26:11Our favourite city.
26:12I fell in love with York because I got my first ever professional theatre job here.
26:18And I remember feeling like it was, it's like a set, it's so beautiful.
26:23Then when I've got Emmerdale, eventually convinced my husband that we should relocate to York.
26:29We've really enjoyed it, but we're now moving again.
26:31Okay, you like to move around.
26:33I do, I don't mean to, but every house I move into, I'm like, this one's forever.
26:36And then something will come up.
26:38So we're moving, which is one of the reasons why you guys are here.
26:43Well, shall we have a look around and see what's potentially to go?
26:46Yeah, I've got something that I want to show you.
26:47Brilliant, okay.
26:49Charlotte, prep the van.
26:51First stop for us is the kitchen.
26:53I wonder what Roxy's serving up in here.
26:56So, have a look at this.
26:59It's super sweet.
27:00I bought this about 20 years ago now.
27:03I've got two of them.
27:04I'm happy for both of them to go because I've always struggled to find a place for them.
27:09The other one's in the attic.
27:10So I think if they're going to go, they should probably go together.
27:13This is by a local artist called Jessica Owen, who is known for her scenes featuring brooding skies.
27:20Art can be tricky, but, you know, somebody else is going to love that, like you.
27:25I'm excited to see how that does.
27:26Good.
27:27Could be a nice lot when we can find the other one.
27:30The start to a promising dame, he thinks.
27:33It's wonderful to be in York, but also to be with Roxy.
27:36I mean, she's an absolute delight.
27:38She's definitely got a taste for the mid-century.
27:40The whole house, you can see that sort of vibe flowing through it.
27:44So I think things that don't fit in that are probably going to come with us.
27:47It'll be interesting to see what she's got.
27:49Looks like Charlotte's got her mitts on something already.
27:52You all right, Charlotte?
27:53Hi, Angus.
27:54Knew you'd find the jewellery, eh?
27:56So we've got this smoky quartz cocktail ring.
27:58Lovely.
27:59Which is really nice.
27:59Quite a big stone.
28:00And then what I find quite interesting is it's handmade look to it with the band.
28:05And then stamped 375, so nine carat gold.
28:08But it looks like it's set with a diamond there.
28:10OK.
28:11It's a beautiful, beautiful ring made by a local jewellery maker called Dion.
28:16And I've had lots of bits of the bracelets that I'm wearing now, he made.
28:20But it's just a bit too big.
28:21And hopefully someone will love it.
28:23Any keen bidders will likely have to fork out up to 200 pounds.
28:29These are silver.
28:30OK.
28:31Set with citrine.
28:33Citrines.
28:33See, I like a citrine.
28:35They're really nice, these aren't they?
28:36Yeah, lovely colours.
28:38Citrine is a semi-precious stone and a member of the quartz family.
28:43Depending on its iron content, it comes in a variety of shades.
28:46From orangey-brown to yellow, like Roxy's earrings, which could make around 50 pounds.
28:53These are quite modern, like the ring.
28:55Well, well done.
28:56Good find.
28:57Excellent.
28:58While Charlotte boxes up the bling, Angus is looking for something else to, er, round up onto his van.
29:05I mean, most people will be looking at that and going, oh, what, Emmerdale.
29:08I'm looking at it and going, that's a good Swaledale ram.
29:10It's that good Yorkshire sheep.
29:12Roxy, found your ram.
29:14Oh, the Emmerdale sheep.
29:17Yeah.
29:19So this is really special, actually.
29:21This is given to anyone that leaves the show that's been there for a certain amount of time.
29:26Because I was there for 16 years.
29:28And did you always know it was going to be that long or was initially it just...
29:30No, I remember when I started, my friend Matthew Wolfenden, who was on the show,
29:35and he said he'd been there three years, and then, you know, 16 years later, I'm crying sad tears because I'm leaving.
29:43This precious memento is going nowhere.
29:46You've also done some ice skating.
29:48Dancing on ice was absolutely terrifying.
29:51I genuinely thought I might die.
29:55Thankfully, Roxy survived her 2024 stint on Dancing on Ice unscathed.
30:01So future doesn't involve skating?
30:02Not at all.
30:04Understood.
30:05But we need to get our skates on.
30:08What's next?
30:09Oh, my word, look at that.
30:11This is Layla's jacket.
30:13And it's one of the things that I took to remember the character by when I left the show.
30:18Because it's so vibrant and it really sums it up.
30:22But I'm never going to wear it.
30:24This fuchsia jacket-cum-cape, worn by Roxy on Emmerdale, is from London fashion house, Ted Baker.
30:32Most importantly, I remember, really, is Providence.
30:34Is it genuine?
30:35Obviously, we know it is, because it's come from you.
30:37And I think in its own right, it's a nice thing.
30:40You know, there'll be a lot of ladies who'd love that regardless.
30:42So I think you get a couple of markets there.
30:44It'd definitely sell.
30:45Lovely bit of clobber there, Roxy.
30:47Anything else?
30:48I may buy a lot of vintage bits and bobs, but my husband buys shirts.
30:54He's got so many shirts, and I'm just so glad that he's parting with two of them.
30:57This one's match-worn, 81.
30:59So in the prime of Nottingham Forest.
31:02Exactly.
31:02Late 70s, 80s.
31:04Between 1978 and 1982, under legendary manager Brian Clough,
31:10Nottingham Forest won one league title, two league cups and two European cups.
31:15My husband's from Nottingham, and he's supported them ever since he was very, very small.
31:21And the money that he gets from these, he's going to dedicate to a Nottingham charity called Headway,
31:27which is an organisation that supports people that have been rehabilitated from brain injuries and stuff.
31:34Yeah, we'll take those, and hopefully we'll get a good result on those and help a charity out.
31:38Fantastic. Thank you.
31:40Vintage footy shirts always do well, and as a single lot, this pair could score big on auction day.
31:47Yes.
31:47This is really nice, but it's just not for me.
31:51OK.
31:51But I know that the artist is local, and I just feel like it could find a new home.
31:58The portrait of David Bowie is by Manchester-based artist Trafford Parsons.
32:03I think it will sell. Definitely a following for it. It's contemporary artwork, but we'll be all right.
32:08I'll find Charlotte, and we'll start getting loaded up.
32:10Perfect.
32:11It's time to get all Roxy's bits gathered together.
32:15Wrapped, packed, and loaded up.
32:18We're going to go for it.
32:19Yeah.
32:20Including this late 20th century pine dressing table.
32:24It looked good in your new flatness.
32:25I was thinking that.
32:26Oh, yeah. Don't forget that other Jessica Owen painting.
32:30Is that the picture?
32:32Yeah.
32:32Combined, the two artworks could bring in 50 quid.
32:36And once they're on the van...
32:38..it's job done.
32:41Looks like it's been a tiring day for everyone.
32:45Are you asleep?
32:46Mr. Lulee.
32:47Has it had a long day?
32:48He has. There's lots of action today.
32:50Well, we're all loaded up, aren't we, Charlotte?
32:52Yeah.
32:52Fantastic.
32:53So, excited for the auction?
32:55Yeah, I'm really looking forward to it, actually.
32:57I hope all the bits do well.
32:58It'll be nice, cos then I can, you know,
33:00use that money to buy more stuff on the day.
33:01The better I do for you, the better you'll do for me.
33:04Exactly!
33:04I think that's a good way to go into it.
33:06Well, on that note, we'll head down the road.
33:08Not far to go.
33:09Lovely!
33:09And we'll see you soon.
33:11Oh, well, thank you so much.
33:12It's been really nice having you guys.
33:13It's been a lovely day.
33:13Thank you very much.
33:14Right, I'll see you out.
33:16Small load, but you know what I really enjoyed today?
33:19I mean, the two standout items, value-wise, potentially,
33:23are a husband's football shirts.
33:25Hopefully, we can get a good result on those,
33:27cos that's probably the bit that means the most
33:28it's going to go to charity.
33:30And they're doing well at the moment,
33:31so maybe now is the right time to sell them.
33:33All we need now is a cup-winning performance
33:36from your team, Angus,
33:38followed by an extra-time winner from you
33:40on the rostrum.
33:42Safe travels!
33:42Oh, hi, Millie.
34:03You all right?
34:04Yeah, I'm good, thank you.
34:05Good.
34:06Roxy's goodies have landed in Kirby Moorside.
34:11The dressing table.
34:12She quite likes buying second-hand vintage stuff a lot.
34:16Not a full van load by any stretch,
34:18but there are more than 30 items.
34:21What do you reckon?
34:21Just your colour, Angus.
34:23Quite nice.
34:24Is that everything?
34:25Yeah, a little job, but it was local.
34:27Brilliant.
34:27Thank you very much.
34:31Over the next few days,
34:32the team start the process of cataloguing it all
34:35in time for auction.
34:37Hi, Millie.
34:38Hi.
34:39And what have you found here?
34:40This is probably a lamp table
34:42in, I would say, probably a Hollywood Regency style.
34:44It looks like it, doesn't it, yeah?
34:46This is very exemplary of, like, a Hollywood Regency style.
34:49It's, like, very over-the-top, sort of,
34:50pulling from the Gilded Age in America
34:53and then also, sort of, the Georgian period.
34:55Hollywood Regency was a lavish mid-century
34:59interior design trend
35:00that drew inspiration
35:02from the ornate Rococo stylings of the 18th century.
35:06Something like this is very on-trend at the moment.
35:08I think Hollywood Regency is back in.
35:11In interiors in general, people are mixing a lot more.
35:13We think this is going to fly, do we?
35:15I think it's definitely a statement piece.
35:16I think something like this being a statement piece
35:17is very nice because it's not overpowering
35:19to the rest of the room
35:20and I think it would fit in
35:22with a lot of different styles of furniture as well.
35:23I've put £40 to £60 on it.
35:25Yeah, I think that's about right.
35:26I think it might do a little bit more.
35:28We'll see on the day.
35:29Right?
35:30Thanks.
35:30I will definitely buy stuff today.
35:39I will be spending more than I'm making, for sure.
35:42Roxy's come with friend and podcasting co-host
35:45Matthew Wolfenden,
35:46who also starred alongside Roxy
35:48as David Metcalfe in Emmerdale.
35:51Morning!
35:52Good morning!
35:52How are we doing?
35:53Nice to meet you.
35:54You're again?
35:54Yeah, good.
35:55How are we feeling?
35:56I'm genuinely very excited
35:59about the auction today.
36:00Yeah.
36:01I'm excited.
36:01I love an auction, really.
36:02Tell Angus about when you used to do your...
36:05Oh, I used to work at an auction house
36:06down in Chelsea.
36:07No way.
36:08So, yeah, way back in the day.
36:09And I was the lad that stood there.
36:11The porter, yeah.
36:12Showing here.
36:12Yeah.
36:12I had to shout, yeah.
36:14And I need a job, actually, so...
36:15Yeah.
36:16Go on.
36:17Go on, have a look round.
36:18Play your cards right today, Matthew.
36:21Angus can always use a strapping lad like you.
36:25Ooh.
36:26Here we are.
36:27Oh, rocks.
36:29Oh, my gosh.
36:30Should we buy that?
36:31That's how we can get back to Harrogate on that today.
36:35I can't wait to see Roxy in the sailroom.
36:37You know, she's such a bag of energy
36:39and I think she's really going to enjoy it.
36:41This is the David Bowie picture
36:43that you offered to give to me, isn't it?
36:45Yeah, I was going to give you that
36:46as a housewarming when you moved.
36:47And now I've turned up
36:48and you've put it in an auction
36:49so I'm going to have to buy it now.
36:51Oh, yeah, I do.
36:52At least I don't get some money.
36:54Flippin' heck.
36:55Not a lot of items
36:56but a few interesting bits.
36:58I think the main lot really
36:59is those football shirts
37:00and the money's going to charity
37:01so we're going to do well on those.
37:03This one was match worn.
37:05Match worn?
37:06Forrest Hay Day.
37:07Yeah, you can tell.
37:09I think we might struggle with one or two bits
37:11but we will do our best
37:13and we'll have fun
37:14and I'm sure Roxy and Matthew
37:16will definitely bring the fun.
37:17This is wonderful.
37:19This is Layla's jacket.
37:20Clearly it is wonderful
37:22but I think it's going to go for a pretty price.
37:24I think it is.
37:25Oh, no, we have...
37:25Were you interested in the character Layla in Emmerdale?
37:29No.
37:29They're probably Corrie fans, Matthew.
37:34But there could be an Emmerdale connoisseur or two
37:38lurking among this lot
37:39keeping tabs on internet bids
37:41at our Jasper and Charlotte
37:42so with our two soap stars in position
37:46let's see if Angus can deliver them a clean sweep.
37:49Because I'm a Yorkshireman of a Scottish name
37:52I like to get a good deal
37:53so we've actually got two slubs for the price of one, haven't we?
37:57First up, it's the gold cocktail ring
37:59with a smoky quartz stone
38:01that Roxy bought from a York jewellery designer.
38:04That's a lovely thing, isn't it?
38:05There we go.
38:06I've got £80 bid.
38:07Oh, £80, let's go now at £80 it is
38:09£80 for the gold cocktail ring there
38:10£85, £85, £90
38:12£90 a bid then at £90

38:15£100 at £100 a bid

38:21At £110
38:22Ring-a-ding-ding
38:25We're off the mark.
38:27Yes!
38:29And when the silver earrings
38:31set with citrine
38:32also by the same designer
38:34come under the gavel
38:35Heck, £50
38:37They hit their top estimate
38:41Not bad, that.
38:44A little birdie told me, Matthew
38:45you used to be a porter in a sailor.
38:47I absolutely did.
38:48Yeah, well, go on.
38:49Yay!
38:50Go on, we'll get you lifting the things up.
38:53Unfortunately for Matthew
38:54the lot he's got to help shift
38:56is that David Bowie portrait
38:58by Trafford Parsons.
39:00It was supposed to be his housewarming present.
39:02Yeah.
39:04There we go, where should we be?
39:05£80 start me at £80
39:06at £80 for the artwork there.
39:08£80 at £80, come on.
39:09£5, £85, £85, £90, £5, £100, £110, £120.
39:14£120 it is then at £120.
39:16This could have been yours, Matthew, couldn't it?
39:17Could have been mine.
39:18Now, £120 all done at £120.
39:20The man who sold the world has been sold to a man in Wigan.
39:26Someone got a bargain, I think, though.
39:28I'd have got a bargain if you'd have given him to like you often.
39:30But when the two miniature seascapes
39:33by artist Jessica Owen come up next...
39:35Err, £50 start me at £50 at £50 at £50.
39:39It's just not their day.
39:41At £50.
39:42So Angus puts them aside for a future auction.
39:45We'll pass those.
39:46Can he steer things back on course with the next lot?
39:53Roxy, you can model this.
39:54I'll go get it.
39:55No, you model it, Matthew.
39:56Looks better on you.
39:58You wore this on Emmerdale, didn't you?
39:59This is Leila's jacket.
40:01As you can see, that colour really just pops on Matthew.
40:04Doesn't it lift him now?
40:05Is there any Emmerdale fans in the room?
40:08Oh, yes!
40:09Yes!
40:10We've got one!
40:11We've got one!
40:12Yes!
40:13You can have a bit of Emmerdale history.
40:15Here we go.
40:16£30 a bit at £30 at £30 at £30 at £30.
40:19Let's go.
40:19This is a bit of TV history.
40:212, 2, 2, we're off.
40:22£32, thank goodness for the internet.
40:23£35, £38, £40, £2, £5, £8, £50.
40:27£50, it's out.
40:28£50 it is then for Leila's cape.
40:30It's all right, that.
40:31£50 selling at £50.
40:33Snapped up by a snappy dresser in Salford.
40:36That's all right for a Jackie.
40:37That's all right.
40:38For a Jackie, you're nicked.
40:39From work, innit?
40:40Yeah.
40:42No need for Matthew's modelling skills any longer.
40:45As Angus rapidly sees off five more lots, including...
40:4945!
40:51The late 20th century pine dressing table...
40:54At £30!
40:57The Hollywood Regency mid-century lamp table and...
41:01I'm in a cell at £40!
41:05A modern Italian-made Chinese-style vase.
41:08Boom!
41:11Oh, wow!
41:12That's done well!
41:14We'd seize this auction round the final bend and enter the home straight.
41:18The two Nottingham Forest, 1980s football shirts.
41:23One was player-worn.
41:24But let's go to...
41:24£220, £230, £240, £250, £260, £270, £280, £290, £300, £320, £340, £360, £380.
41:33£400 I have!
41:34At £400 and bid.
41:35At £420, fresh bid.
41:37At £420, at £420, £440, thank you.
41:41£440 it is.
41:42We're all done.
41:43£460, back in at £460 it is then.
41:45Sally, at £460.
41:48At the end of the day, the boys played a blinder.
41:52Well done.
41:53That was good.
41:54Yeah.
41:55That's you done, short and sweet.
41:56With the footy shirts nearly doubling their top estimate, Angus has netted Roxy a sizeable sum for charity.
42:04But what's the final score, I wonder?
42:06Well, you can ask it yourself every year.
42:09I'm sorry if I interrupted you a lot, she's telling me off here.
42:12It's great.
42:12He's quite chatty for a porter, wasn't he?
42:14He was, but do you know what, I loved it.
42:15You two were just so excitable and, you know, just brought this energy to the room.
42:19I think it's great.
42:19I think it's your energy, though.
42:21Yeah.
42:21Fantastic seeing you up there.
42:22You're like a little rapper.
42:24The rapping ocean here.
42:25Mmm.
42:26A couple of lots didn't go, pictures, but that's fine.
42:30Yeah, that's okay.
42:31And I think, to be fair, everything went for a reasonable price.
42:34And most importantly, it's been a really fun day out.
42:37Yeah, I've had a lovely day.
42:37I've had a great time, honestly.
42:39Well, we've loved having you.
42:40So, obviously, the shirts that go to charity is £460 there, but the grand total, including that take home, is £801.
42:47Wow.
42:48That's really good.
42:50Tell you what, that's a spa day away, that.
42:52I could get a couple.
42:53I made quite a bit today, quite a hefty pack.
42:57Quite a good wedge.
42:58You certainly did.
42:59I'm glad that half of it's going to charity, though.
43:01I think that's a really admirable thing.
43:03Yeah, of course.
43:03I think it's brilliant.
43:04My £339 will be going on a spa day.
43:09Nice.
43:09Yeah.
43:10Are you going to invite me to that?
43:11No.
43:12Look, seeing Matthew, I mean, they brought the energy.
43:15A lot of fun.
43:16One or two bits didn't get away.
43:17I think the important thing was the two Nottingham Forest football shirts sold.
43:22Really delighted they sold well.
43:23And I think they've just enjoyed the day out.
43:26They're quite into this auction thing.
43:27I might be seeing them again, I think.
43:28I think they've just enjoyed the day out.
