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.
00:22Seeking out collectibles.
00:24Yeah, this looks nice.
00:25What do you think of this?
00:26No!
00:27Keepsakes from their careers.
00:29Please don't drop them.
00:30Those are staying.
00:31I was just looking.
00:32And stuff they no longer need.
00:34We have this fridge here.
00:35Yeah, okay.
00:36To sell back at his auction house.
00:38Oh, no!
00:39Oh, wow!
00:40This is like an Aladdin's cave for me.
00:43Well, it looks fantastic here.
00:45Turning their possessions.
00:465,100.
00:47Crikey.
00:48Into piles of money.
00:51Boom!
00:59Hey, Angus.
01:00Hey, Mark.
01:01You all right?
01:02Thanks.
01:03I've taken a lovely job.
01:04Yeah.
01:05There's quite a lot of it.
01:06I might have a look when I get back, because I've got to shoot off.
01:08I'm going to see Oti Mabusi.
01:09Oh, strictly Oti.
01:10Strictly, yeah.
01:11Oh, right.
01:12Fantastic.
01:13Might get a dance lesson when I'm down there.
01:14Yeah.
01:15South African-born ballroom dancer and TV personality, Oti Mabusi, has appeared on numerous shows
01:28from Dancing on Ice to Loose Women.
01:31But she first cha-cha-charred her way into our hearts, competing as a professional on Strictly
01:38Come Dancing.
01:39For seven years, she taught a host of celebrities how to dance.
01:43I hope Angus packed his dancing shoes.
01:46I would absolutely dance with Angus, Stu.
01:48I think you'll be a joy to teach.
01:50Absolutely.
01:51Will it be a train wreck?
01:53Yes.
01:54Harsh.
01:56But probably fair, Oti.
01:58It's not every day one of the most successful dancers in the country rings you up.
02:02Do you like dancing?
02:03I like Strictly.
02:04And did she win it with Bill Bailey?
02:07Yes, and I think Kelvin Fletcher as well.
02:09You do know your Strictly, don't you?
02:11I love a bit of Strictly.
02:12Angus and Billy have a five and a half hour drive ahead of them to Oti's home in Berkshire.
02:17I started dancing when I was really young.
02:20I danced my whole way through high school, I danced my whole way through university and
02:24then I decided to move to Germany and start my career as a professional dancer.
02:29I ended up Strictly come dancing in the UK because they founded me in Germany when I was scouted
02:36there by an agent from the BBC and I guess the rest is history.
02:42Oti lives with her husband Marius and their two-year-old daughter.
02:46My husband, he is my original dance partner.
02:50We met in Germany and I think we've just loved dancing together ever since.
02:59It's when we are the most comfortable and we can have the most communication without using words,
03:04it's when we're dancing.
03:06You love me.
03:07Imagine if I was a normal wife.
03:09So boring.
03:10So boring.
03:11We have only recently just moved to this house so it's our fourth month.
03:16It's really, really, really new.
03:18It is an 18th century house and it feels like our forever home.
03:23And the feel of it is quite old, Victorian, kind of classic, it's got a story to tell.
03:30But we've kept some things from the old house and unfortunately I just don't match the house.
03:35Aha!
03:36That's why our beardy auctioneer is required.
03:39I've asked Angus here today to help me auction some of the things that I do love dearly,
03:45but unfortunately they just don't fit.
03:48Also, we've got some things here from the previous owners.
03:51We don't even know what they are, but I'm hoping that Angus can use his expertise
03:55and find some little valuable hidden gems.
03:59Right, here we are.
04:06Oh, it's warm.
04:10It is.
04:13Hello!
04:14Oti!
04:15Hi!
04:16How are you doing?
04:17You all right?
04:18Oh, great.
04:19It is.
04:20Come in.
04:21It's boiling.
04:25Alright, so this is the first room.
04:28Oh, wow.
04:29We haven't literally been here for about four months, so not long.
04:33Everything that we had was quite South African, safari, bright, coloured,
04:39and bringing that into the new house just didn't work.
04:42Okay.
04:43Well, what sort of things were you looking at?
04:44Right.
04:45Okay.
04:46We have a huge elephant in...
04:48The elephant in the room.
04:49The elephant in the room.
04:50The elephant in the room.
04:51So, this actually was a gift, and I got this the first year I ever won Strictly.
04:58Who were you with for the first woman?
05:00Calvin Fletcher.
05:01I was supposed to be actually partnered up with Jamie Lang.
05:04Jamie Lang ended up injuring himself in the first show, and Calvin kind of came in as
05:09he was the reserve, so quite the underdog, and worked really hard and evidently did extremely
05:16well.
05:17Enough about the underdog.
05:18What about the elephant?
05:20Anything that reminds me of home, I really love to cherish.
05:24But this is a bit much.
05:26I think the bright colours as much as I love it.
05:29We haven't really found the spot in the house for it.
05:32Yeah.
05:33I really like it.
05:34I think it's really decorative.
05:35Yeah, it's cool.
05:36If you like it, you can have it.
05:37Oh, well.
05:38Happily sell that for you.
05:40One for the van.
05:41Next.
05:42Okay.
05:43We now have these four stools.
05:45In the old house, we used to have this island.
05:47Unfortunately, though, we can't find a place for them in this house.
05:50They just don't...
05:51They don't fit.
05:52They don't fit.
05:53I'm going to speak a little bit lower because my husband does love them.
05:57Right.
05:58But we are getting rid of them.
06:00Okay.
06:01Just out of interest, we do do valuations for separation purposes.
06:05If there's a real problem.
06:07No, no, no.
06:08The divorce is too expensive.
06:09I can't afford the divorce, but I can't afford selling these.
06:13You can let Marius know we might be able to get £50 for them.
06:16Great.
06:17Well, Millie, do you want to get the van ready?
06:18Yeah, we can go get the van sorted.
06:19And then, Oti, should we look at what else there is?
06:20Yeah.
06:21Brilliant, okay.
06:22That's it, Millie.
06:23While you quick-step it to the van, Angus and Oti can continue their duet in here.
06:28Okay, Angus.
06:30So this is supposed to be sort of like a playroom.
06:33There's not enough space.
06:35We've got two baby cupboards, but she doesn't use them anymore.
06:38Okay.
06:39I've got children, so I know it must have really changed things for you, this sort of new chapter.
06:44Completely.
06:45I think my whole world now is about my daughter.
06:47I've had to really adjust my career.
06:50Luckily, I'm now working on Loose Women, and that really allows me time to do the school drop.
06:57Yeah.
06:58Go there, be on television, and then I'll go fetch her, and then she comes in, and then
07:02we have dinner, and then that's the day.
07:04And speaking of work, is this a few outfits?
07:08Now, this was a dress that I wore on my first ever Strictly final.
07:15Wow.
07:16Look at my waist.
07:17That's tiny.
07:18This is literally half my breast now.
07:19Oti, that's...
07:21Dance has been your whole life, hasn't it, from a young girl?
07:24I started when I was three, and it's not the only thing that I've done.
07:28I'm actually a civil engineer.
07:30I've got an interest in designs and regional and town planning and water systems and irrigation.
07:36That is incredible.
07:37I know.
07:38I never knew that.
07:39Full of surprises.
07:40Full of surprises.
07:41Plus, you've managed to follow your passion.
07:43Yeah, that's the thing.
07:44I take it none of these are to go, these are...
07:46Uh, no.
07:47None of these are for sale, unfortunately.
07:49Right, so if we can clear a bit of space to get rid of the units out of here.
07:52Yes, please.
07:53Next, we have the garage.
07:54OK.
07:55No rest for the wicked Angus.
07:57Oti is going to keep you on your toes today.
08:00My gosh, Oti, this is like your workout, isn't it?
08:03Yeah.
08:04Welcome to the garage, slash man cave.
08:07We have this fridge here.
08:08Yes.
08:09That has never been used.
08:11So why have you got it?
08:12Because I was doing an advert and they were like, well if you fancy a fridge, it's a double
08:18door fridge.
08:19It's good fridge.
08:20It's brilliant.
08:21Yeah.
08:22Oti's American style fridge freezer is made by Turkish electronics company, Biko,
08:27and comes with an ice and water dispenser.
08:30Cool, eh?
08:31Have you ever been made into a fridge magnet?
08:33Do people still make fridge magnets?
08:34Oh yeah, they do.
08:35Massive.
08:36We could like, you know, put a...
08:37A fridge magnet on me?
08:38Oti fridge magnet.
08:39Whatever sells.
08:40Good idea, Angus.
08:42Why not use Oti's magnetic personality to help sell the fridge?
08:47Oti is the sweetest, sweetest lady you could meet.
08:50Do you know what?
08:51We see all these people on telly and things like that and we forget they're real people
08:54and they have the same challenges like the rest of us.
08:57Moving house, new child, I mean it's a challenge for everybody.
09:01I don't think it's going to be vast amounts today.
09:03It's kind of very much household items.
09:05We'll see what we can get loaded up and we'll try and create as much space as we can.
09:12Have you seen the box that's just over there?
09:14Oh!
09:15Green Howards.
09:16Yeah.
09:17Oh, we like that.
09:18Green Howards were a British army regiment nicknamed after one of their 18th century colonels,
09:24Charles Howard and the green trim on their uniforms.
09:27It's a regiment very close to our Angus' heart.
09:31It's the greatest infantry regiment there's ever been.
09:33They've been there at all the major campaigns.
09:35Incredible, really.
09:36Obviously, I was a Green Howard.
09:38Ah, obviously.
09:39It is fundamentally just a storage box but it's belonged to CSM, so that's Company Sergeant Major.
09:49We've got there Sergeant Jay...
09:51Hewitt.
09:52Hewitt.
09:53The Green Howards.
09:54It's a nice thing.
09:55I do like these military trunks.
09:56It's a bit tired but that will sell purely because of the writing on it.
10:00Yeah.
10:01We're not fortunes, 50 to 100, but you know, great to see a bit of Yorkshire down here, isn't it?
10:05Yeah.
10:06Should we take it home?
10:07Yeah, definitely.
10:08That's it.
10:09That's it.
10:10That's it.
10:11That's it.
10:12With the heavy lifting done, maybe we can relax for a minute.
10:28Ready, go.
10:29Oh.
10:30One, two, cha-cha-cha.
10:32One, two, three, four, five, ten, one.
10:35Anyway.
10:36Anyway.
10:37Right leg, three, four, five.
10:39Right leg, right leg, right leg.
10:42Ready, go.
10:44One, two, cha-cha-cha.
10:46One, two, cha-cha-spin.
10:48One, two, cha-cha-spin.
10:50One, two, cha-cha-spin.
10:51One, two, cha-cha-stop.
10:53Yeah.
10:56The burn.
10:57Really?
10:58You think?
10:59What do you reckon?
11:00There we go.
11:01Thank you, Oti.
11:02Probably best to stick to the day job, Angus.
11:04Now, what else can you find to take for auction?
11:07Cast metal fireback. They were first developed in the 16th century and they were a thing of purpose.
11:13All heating at that stage was an open fire. These would sit at the back. It protected the wall of
11:18the fireplace from heat damage and it also reflected the heat back into the room and then
11:23over time actually people thought fireplace looks quite good let's make it decorative. This is
11:28probably a 20th century version of something much earlier. Shows kind of a blacksmith working in his
11:35forge and just a nice thing 50 to 100 pounds something like that but if you want to create
11:40a grand house in your home this is what you need. With the last few bits loaded up on the van. Back to
11:49Yorkshire. Angus and Millie are done. Come on in to your children's playroom. You wanted space.
11:56Wow! I wanted space! It's so open and yay! Oh she's gonna have so much fun. I mean yay! I'm so happy!
12:09Right I'm off back to Yorkshire. I'll see you soon there. Thank you. All right cheers 80. See ya!
12:16I'm so happy with Angus. He was brilliant. He was efficient. There's just so much space. There's so much
12:21potential in this room alone and I'm so happy. It was really about clearing space, making that space
12:29for a daughter, that playroom and it's just been lovely. It's not every day you can say you've danced
12:35with somebody like Oti. It's been a special day so back to Yorkshire. After your stellar dance performance
12:41now's your cha-cha chance to really impress Oti by selling all her stuff on auction day Angus.
12:50What are we expecting? Erm quite a lot of furniture. That'll do Jack. With Oti's things back at the
13:06auction house the team shake a leg to get it all unloaded. Whoa. Whoa. Bloody hell. Athlete over here. So
13:16everything can be researched and catalogued in time for sale day. Hi Charlotte. Hi Jeremy. So what have
13:24we got here? It's a print by the artist Louise Luton. She specialises in doing very bright oil
13:32paintings of animals. The elephant's called Hugo. There's a series of prints made and they were sold
13:38in John Lewis. Erm I think it's £175 they retail for. Based in Salisbury Louise spent 20 years working
13:45as a secondary school teacher before being inspired to paint full time. I think it's a really nice quality
13:51because it's actually quite well-texted isn't it? It actually feels like a canvas. Yeah it does. I'd put
13:55it at 50 to 70. Hopefully it'll go for quite a lot more than that. Let's hope for a jumbo price on sale day.
14:02What you got there Angus? Going to play as a tune? This lamp of Oti Mabusi's is amazing. Oh never mind.
14:13The lighting market has boomed in the last sort of 10 years really and it's all about the looks,
14:18something a little bit different and doing something clever with lighting. A lot of people
14:23call this upcycling. I think probably lights are the original form of upcycling. If you go back 20 years
14:31ago it was an old wine bottle that we converted into a lamp. Our old stoneware bottle nowadays we
14:36convert everything into lamps. I've seen musical instruments like a trombone, old tools and all
14:43sorts created into something a little bit different. And if something can have a new life doing something
14:47else fantastic. I think it should sell well. We've put sort of 60 to 80 on it as an estimate. I'm sure we'll
14:53find a home for this. Oti! Hello Angus! How are you doing? You're all right? I'm good. Yeah we're good.
15:08Yeah? How are you feeling? I mean I'm a little bit nervous. Nervous? Why? Because I've never done this before.
15:13I don't know what to expect. It's just like stepping out on stage. Is it? Yeah well no there's more furniture
15:18in the way and boxes and stuff. But other than that it's fine. I mean if you can do that. This is easy.
15:24Okay. Yeah. Come on. Head through and I'll catch up with you in a bit. Wow.
15:31The elephant! Oh man it feels weird seeing it here. Oh no baby. In her first ever bedroom these were her
15:44first ever closets. Oh man. It took us so long to put them together. I was still in hospital and my
15:56husband would come back at midnight and just build them. Some of the furniture might be a little bit
16:02tricky. The fridge look the fridge is really good so we'll find a home for that. The elephant print you
16:07know it's colorful I think hopefully we'll get that out of the way so I don't think it's going to be
16:11groundbreaking results but it's just going to be wonderful to have eight in the sale room.
16:15She's going to add a little bit of sparkle. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. Enjoy the auction.
16:21It is quite strange seeing my stuff in the Yorkshire house but now I'm excited. I'm excited
16:27to let them go. I'm excited for them to be in a new home and I'm excited to see how they do.
16:33Well let's get started then. Millie and Jasper are set to manage all those online bids.
16:38Well let's go. Now we just need Angus to put his best foot forward and strut his stuff on the
16:45rostrum. Oh we're on. Welcoming to the stage Oti Mabusi. Just me clapping. First up is the Louise
16:55Luton elephant print. Hugo the elephant. We start at 80, 90, 120. Charlotte was right. It's already
17:03smashed its estimate. 120 pound in mid then at 130. 130 it is then for the elephant at 130 pound. This
17:09was on Oti's wall. At 130 pound it is for Oti's elephant. Oh two of you coming up 140. I've got 150
17:15on commission. 150, 160. In the room at 160 pound it is then at 160. At 160 it is then. At 160 in the room
17:23but 160. That's an elephant-tastic start. 160 thank you very much. Now will anyone take a shine to this?
17:32This is a bit of fun isn't it? Oti's trombone floor lamp. Couldn't quite get it to play did we? But it
17:38lights up. 50 pounds start me. 50 for Oti's trombone lamp. Oh my god. Come on bidders it's
17:46multifunctional. Bid. 55, 5, 5. Let's go. Good old internet bidders. 60, 65, 65, 65 bid. 70, 70 pound it
17:55is then at 70. Five fresh bid. 75 it is then at 75 it is then at 75 pound. It's a bit quirky it's a bit
18:01different. At 75 gobbles up at 75. Hitting all the right notes and meeting its estimate. Uh right. Next
18:13it's a wooden chest that belonged to a sergeant in the green howards regiment. Military chest there.
18:1840 pound a bid at 40. It is then at 40 pound a bid at 40. At 42. 42. 42. 555. 45. 48. 50 I have.
18:25The chest is shipping out to a bidder in Bridlington. You were just going to throw that out weren't you?
18:39Yeah. It was by the skip. It was by the skits. Um. And here is something else Angus saved from the
18:47skip. Oh this is interesting. The 17th century style cast iron fireback. This is what Oti used to train
18:53with. Uh what should it be for this. Uh 30 pound a bid. Straight in. 30 pound. Nice. This is amazing.
18:5832, 5, 8, 40. 40 pound a bid. So 40 it is. At 40. 22, 25. 45 it is then at 45. Selling at 45.
19:08That one got the online bidders fired up. Impressive. So impressive. Prepare to be further impressed Oti as
19:17Angus flies through six more of your lots including. At 30 pounds. A white laminate wardrobe with mirrored
19:25doors and. At 70 pounds. The four velvet bar stools. Say bye bye Marius.
19:35Thank you madam. 680. Bringing us to the last lot of the sale. The Bico American style fridge freezer.
19:43It's actually a really really good combination fridge freezer. It does the ice. The water.
19:47It's brand new. And it comes with a very limited edition Oti Mabusi fridge magnet.
19:55Angus had these made up especially. As if the fridge wasn't cool enough already.
20:00One of three. So this is a rare limited edition Oti Mabusi fridge. I go straight in at 120. 120 and bid at 120.
20:08That's a commission bid on the low end of the estimate to start. 130. 140.
20:13The commission bid's not maxed out yet. 150. 160. 170. 180. 190. I've got 200. 210. At 210.
20:21With a limited edition fridge magnet. At 210. Is that why you're buying it sir?
20:26No. At 210 it is then at 210. I'm going to sell at 210.
20:31Sold to the cool as a cucumber room bidder.
20:34Thank you very much sir. With all of Oti's things waltzing off to new owners. It's time to tango our way
20:43outside and find out the final scores.
20:45Hey Oti. Hello. Are you all right? Yeah I'm good. That was so much fun. You were very very good.
20:51Any surprises? The biggest one was the fire. The fire back. The fire back.
20:57Yeah. Because that you found randomly. Like I didn't care about it. Didn't care about the box.
21:02That sold as well. It did. Well I suppose I'm best to tell you what your grand total is. The scores.
21:09What is it? Seven. Well it is actually a seven. 732 pounds.
21:13Oh yay. Very good.
21:16Yeah. But it's been an absolute pleasure. Thank you. No thank you for having me.
21:20What about my auctioneering skills? 10. 10 across the scale.
21:25I'm actually really surprised with how the day went. It was really exciting and
21:32like you get a little bit of adrenaline. I definitely think Angus did such a brilliant
21:36brilliant job and I would definitely feel like now I'm addicted to auctions. Like I'm hooked.
21:42Well Oti caused quite the stir in the sale room. It's wonderful. Loads of people really love seeing
21:47her here. I think you know a few good results actually. One or two things did well. Really really
21:51good day. Pleased for one of the nicest and nicest people you can meet.
22:05Charlotte there's a reason why you're coming on the job with me today. Yeah. It's a very long drive.
22:11Is that the reason? Well you're in the same way. No no no I'm taking you home. We're going to Somerset.
22:18We are. If that isn't exciting enough we're going to go see Martin Roberts. Oh my gosh.
22:25Yeah. Oh that's exciting. It sure is Charlotte. Martin Roberts is one of the UK's top property
22:32experts and most popular TV personalities. With decades of experience as a property developer
22:39under his belt he's presented a host of TV and radio shows. But he's best known for the BBC auction
22:45show Homes Under the Hammer which he's presented for over two decades. It's about 5,000 properties
22:52that I've visited and about you know 10,000 different ways of describing damp.
22:59Now this is a home I can't wait to see.
23:13It's a six hour drive for Angus and Charlotte to Martin's home in the Somerset countryside.
23:19Through to the nice sized living area. Loads of light coming in through the bay window there.
23:26And I love the fact that we've got all this natural wood on the floors. Obviously somebody's
23:30taken a lot of trouble to actually strip that back. Actually it was a weekend of hell.
23:37Wrong series Martin but it is a very nice house. I didn't have kids when I bought it
23:42but it's turned out to be the most perfect family house. I've been collecting stuff for years. It is my
23:48passion. I love going to car boot sales. I love going to flea markets and I'm really good at buying
23:53stuff. But I think it's about time that I should make you some money on it maybe. And what might
23:58you spend this money on? I'm renovating a pub. A community pub in the top of the Ronda Valley.
24:05It's going to be a gastropub, a boutique hotel. And even by my standards it is chomping through the cash.
24:14So maybe my wumbling at all these fairs and boot sales can actually be money in the bank which I'm
24:21now turning into cash. Good plan. I bet he's got a nice house. I reckon he might. He must do. Oh,
24:29here we are. I think we're nearly here. I expect I will be disappointed on what some things get
24:37because it's what somebody's willing to pay and they might not share my passion. But I might be
24:45pleasantly surprised. And at the end of the day, every penny helps. That's the spirit, Martin.
25:00Hello. Hello. How are you doing? You all right? Nice to meet you. Good. And Charlotte.
25:04Charlotte, lovely to meet you too. Wonderful. You've got a welcome party. Oh, look at this. This is
25:08waffle and this is crumble and that's your noodle. Oh, they're gorgeous. I love the names. Yeah,
25:13thank you. All food related. I have to say that a lot of the stuff is in my carefully organised garage.
25:20Well, let's go to the garage then. Shall we go? It's down there. Okay, you lead on. Yeah.
25:23So how long have you lived here then, Martin? About 40 years in this house. Wow. In that time,
25:32much of my wife's annoyance, I've filled it with completely piles of, well, I call it collectibles.
25:37She calls it rubbish. What's that? As a child, I used to go to these steam rallies with my dad. Yeah.
25:43And he was an engineer. He was a scientist. So I went to university, got a degree in electronics,
25:48electrical engineering. Okay. So anything to do with steam and railways and engines, it is amazing.
25:55So this is a proper... Oh, we like this. Five inch steam engine. Okay. That is fantastic.
26:02Which is absolutely beautiful. No, it's a fully functioning engine. Yeah. I mean,
26:06it will drive like a real train. Yes. Steam, fantastic. However, you're not having that. Oh, right.
26:12Oh, and after all that. Moving on to more steam stuff, I found this. It's something that's been
26:19scratch built. But this manufacturer, I understand, Stewart. Yes. It's quite well known for their
26:24engineering model. They are. Established in 1898 in Henley-on-Thames as part of the Stewart-Turner Group,
26:31Stewart models continue to make model steam engines at a factory in Bridport in Dorset today. I quite like
26:38this, the fact that it's got the boiler, it's got the piston thing, and then it's got a generator and
26:43you can connect it to a couple of light bulbs. Yeah. So I think that's really quite... That's lovely.
26:48That's really quite sweet. Hopefully it generates some bids. A lot of musical instruments I can see,
26:54or music. You know, one of the things I want to do in the pub is have an area with lots of musical
26:58instruments that the local kids can come in and play. So I'm trying to get a real mixture of things.
27:02Wow. I hope he's soundproofed the walls. But I have got a few duplicates. And one of the things I've got
27:07two up is an accordion. OK. The first accordion was patented in Vienna in 1829. Martin's one isn't
27:15as old, dating from the mid to late 20th century and made by German brand Weltmeister. Do you play?
27:27I think that's a no. You know, I can't play an accordion, but... I see the vision. You know...
27:33It works. Do your best. Yeah. Yeah, just need someone who can play it.
27:37The accordion should squeeze a few notes out of someone.
27:42What else is up for grabs? I've got this. You might want to have some fun with.
27:47Ah, the classic Gladstone bag. The Gladstone bag. Yeah, exactly. But I love the detail on this. I love
27:53the brass fitting. Lovely, isn't it? It just does its work. Why is it called a... Do you
27:57know why it's called a Gladstone bag? Well, the bag manufacturer named it after
28:01the Prime Minister, Gladstone. No! William Gladstone was Prime Minister
28:05for a total of 12 years, spread out over four terms between 1868 and 1894. It's thought that
28:13London leather goods seller JG Beard named the bag in his honour. It is really the doctor's bag,
28:19because it was almost the standard that that's what the doctors carried around. It's an iconic
28:24British bag. It is. That's lovely. I mean, that's a nice one and it's in good order. Bag it up,
28:29Angus. Not bad so far. You know, it's an auctioneer's dream opening up a garage like that and seeing all
28:34those wonderful items. However, I think actually selling things might be a bit of an issue for him. And I
28:41think he's bought a lot of these items retail, so he's probably paid a lot more for them than what,
28:46realistically, we're going to get at auction. So, I'm going to have to manage those expectations a
28:51little bit. But he should be used to that. He does that on his show. I'm sure you can
28:56wheedle enough things out of Martin to raise some cash for that pub project in Wales, Angus.
29:01So, while Charlotte readies the van, let's check inside the house. Welcome. Martin, oh,
29:07I'm loving the house. It's just been a great spot. Yeah. It's a lot and lots of work to get it like
29:12this and it's ongoing. I've got the fish tank in the kitchen and this open plan stuff.
29:17So, this is my office, but I love, I know, I know. I love surrounding myself by things that I love
29:23while I'm working. With the collector's market, things like toys, it's all nostalgia driven.
29:28Of course it is. It's so funny. And when you've got the chance to buy these things,
29:31when you couldn't, it's like, yeah, I'm going to get a Skeletrics. This, right, it's in a box,
29:36which obviously you'll know is quite important. It's brilliant, isn't it? I mean, it is just,
29:43just genius. Exterminate! Exterminate!
29:47Doctor Who's greatest enemies, the Daleks, appeared in the very first season of Doctor Who
29:52in 1963. This tin plate wind-up Dalek was released by London toy company Codec in 1965.
30:00I mean, it's so iconic, isn't it, the Dalek? But, you know, there's a real collector's market for it.
30:05It's great. It's got its box. They're generally anywhere from £150 up to just over the £400 mark.
30:12So... Okay. Fingers crossed on the day.
30:14Yeah. What a great find. I know.
30:16You quite like this, don't you? Rummaging around and biting.
30:19I love it. It's my happy place. Yeah.
30:22Sunday mornings, yeah, going round the flea markets, all the car boots.
30:26Well, it looks like you have an eye, Martin, because over the next hour, Angus and Charlotte
30:30find many more enticing bits and bobs. Grab a box and we'll...
30:35Yes. Full steam ahead. Yes, boss.
30:38No, it was a joke about trains. Oh, yeah.
30:41Stick to auctioneering.
30:44Right. I can take this straight to the van. And that's the cabinet glass top frere. Right.
30:49Nick will relish investigating these two, whatever they are models, back at the auction house.
30:55Fantastic. And...
30:56Hopefully it works. A couple of spare batteries in the garage.
30:59This electric mountain bike might be worth a few, Bob.
31:02I do occasionally buy things on impulse and I think the electric bike was one of those.
31:06It was sort of in the early days when electric bikes came out. It's a really good one.
31:10And I used it a few times. I was like, yeah, actually, you know what?
31:12It's a lot easier to cycle around. And it has sat there for years.
31:15Could be a real deal for someone. And with that...
31:18Oh, right. We are done.
31:22Done.
31:23Hey. Hey. All set. We're all ready.
31:29Well, you know what? I'm excited. I'm nervous. I'm emotional.
31:33We'll see you up on auction day. Yeah, brilliant.
31:35Don't forget to read the legal pack. Oh, your legal pack?
31:38You've got one, haven't you? In terms of conditions.
31:39Yeah, I don't know. Apparently that's what you say, innit?
31:41We haven't talked about commission, by the way.
31:42Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, well, you know, obviously,
31:44I've got to pay for the van and Charlotte's expensive, you know.
31:47Do me a deal, will you? Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right. Travel safely.
31:51It was really nice to meet Angus and Charlotte.
31:53Even at the 11th hour, I was still thinking about grabbing them back.
31:59That is how much of a problem I got. But anyway, no, it's done now. They're gone. It's too late.
32:04I think there's a bit of him that wants to take it all back off the van again.
32:08He's talked about reserves. So, look, we're going to get everything catalogued.
32:12We'll go back to him with a pre-sale estimate of what we think everything's going to do at auction.
32:17And we'll see about that. Anyway, back to Yorkshire. Back on the work.
32:20I don't envy you, Angus. Martin's always after a good return.
32:24Let's hope it's not moans under the hammer on auction day.
32:38Back at the auction house, once all Martin's things are unloaded, the team can start processing
32:48everything in time for the sale day. Right, well, this is right up my street. I really love this.
32:54We've got two really fascinating industrial architectural engineering models of basically
33:02glasswork furnaces. These have come from now defunct company called Chance Brothers.
33:08They were a very well-known glass-making company based in Smedic. Models like this,
33:13they were typically Bordrum models. And they're basically for when customers come in, potential
33:19customers, they can be shown the full level of industrial complexity that the company has on
33:25offer and what machines they might be using. What I love about these is just the level of work and
33:30effort that's gone into them. They're all metal. All of the little nuts and bolts are real. I would have
33:34said sort of mid-60s, that sort of era. They've both got nicely framed glass cases as well. Very
33:43specialist market, obviously, but they're just so fantastic. An estimate would probably have to be
33:49around the £1 to £2,000 mark. Smashing! To maximise the price for the glass factory models,
33:55Nicky's cataloguing them as two separate lots. Hi Charlotte. Hi Jeremy. What have you got there?
34:05Here we have a Dunhill table lighter. It's a genie lamp, is it? Yeah. This is a mid-century one,
34:11so 1952 to 1960, these were manufactured. Yeah, absolutely banging it, isn't it? Yeah. And it's
34:17silver plate, presumably. Yes, yes. So, Dunhill was founded by Alfred Dunhill in 1893. Oh, as early as
34:24that? I didn't know that. So, Victorian people. And he was only 21 years old, so young man to be.
34:29Gosh, an entrepreneur. Yeah. Alfred Dunhill initially specialised in automobile accessories
34:34and driving attire before expanding into cigarette lighters. So, how does it actually work? So,
34:39you, we, we... Oh, yes. Amazing. I feel like we can quite confidently say there'll be a collector
34:46out there that wants it. Definitely. Let's wish for lots of bidders on sale day.
34:58Hey, buddy. Hey, how's it going? Good to see you. You all right? And Jim. In your neck of the woods.
35:03Yeah, am I? Welcome to Yorkshire. I've got two real fears today. I'm going to end up getting less
35:07less than I pay for things. That's number one. Number two is I'm going to spend a lot more than
35:11you're going to raise from what I sell buying other things. Well, that's a good day for me.
35:16Come on in and have a look. Great.
35:21Oh. Oh, wow. It's a while since I've seen these actually out where I can see them. The detail is
35:32amazing, but as long as it goes to a good home. Those scale engineering models are incredible. I don't
35:39know, they deserve to do well, but I'm just not sure who will want them. I think Martin's perhaps overpaid
35:44for a few things and got a little bit carried away at Antiques Fair, so I think that might be a bit
35:48of a challenge to get the money that he wants on it. Oh, here's the Gladstone bag. I think I bought
35:54this at Bewley Auto Jumble. I thought I'd got a great deal getting it for, I think, 110 quid, and I think
36:02it's guided at like 50. Great. He's got a few reserves on. I'm hoping we can hit those reserves,
36:16but we'll see how we get on. I am really, really nervous. I should be excited. I should be thinking,
36:23woo-hoo-hoo. This is a first. I've never sold anything pretty much ever. What's the opposite
36:30of buyer's remorse? That's seller's remorse. Yeah, I've just invented a new thing. I've invented a new
36:34emotion that I'm going through today. Seller's remorse. Hey, enough of that. This is Angus,
36:40remember? Plus, you have the formidable duo of Millie and Jasper each tackling those online bidders,
36:46so sit yourself down. We've just 11 lots to get through and try and enjoy yourself. Good morning,
36:52ladies and gentlemen. We're delighted to have the Martin Roberts collection. There we go. I'm sure
36:58you're all familiar with Homes Under the Hammer. Different auction this time. First up is Martin's
37:031960s Dalek made by Kodeg Toys. Oh, this is great, isn't it? Bit of a toy collector, aren't you? Yeah, I am.
37:12There we go. The Dalek, it winds up and it drives around and it's brilliant. So brilliant that Martin
37:18placed a £250 reserve. I come in on commission at bottom estimate 200 and I've got 210 here at 210,
37:25at 210, 220, 230, 240. I've got 250 online, 260, 270, 270 it is, then it's a great thing at 270, 280 is it now.
37:33280, 280 it is, then at 280 it is, then at 280. You're going to sell away the Dalek at 280.
37:39See? Feeling better now, Martin? I only lost 20 quid on that.
37:47Wow, this is going to be a tough one. Now the must-have fashion accessory for prime ministers
37:52and property experts everywhere. The lovely, lovely Gladstone bag. That is a quality bag,
37:58is that? Is this another one you paid? We've paid way too much for this. Well, we've got interest in it.
38:03We can go straight in. 80 pounds, straight in at 80 on commission. 80 pound a bid. 80 it is,
38:08then at 80 pounds, at 80 it is, then at 80 pounds, at 80 it is, then lovely, lovely bag. 8, 5, 90.
38:1390 it is, then at 90 pounds it is, then 5, 100. At 100 it is, then at 100. We're all done. At 100 pounds.
38:24A bidder in London bag, that one. Great, didn't lose quite as much as I thought I would.
38:28I'm guessing you're better at property. Coming up, the Dunhill silver-plated table lighter,
38:37which has a reserve of 70 pounds. Oh, this is nice. The genie in the lamp,
38:42maybe the wishes will come true now. I've got 60 mid. 60 pound a bid at 60 it is, then at 60,
38:46at 65. 65 pound a bid at 65. 70, surely. Nice Dunhill lighter than worth this. At 65, 70. Thank you,
38:53madam. At 70 pound it is, then at 70. At 70 pound it is, then at 70. I'm with you, madam, at 70 pounds.
38:5770 pounds. Genius. That's bang on the reserve price.
39:05Can the model of a steam engine by Stuart Models inject some energy into proceedings?
39:10It's a nice thing, probably my favourite thing at your house actually.
39:13Isn't it? Ah, 200 pound I start at, 200 pound. And we come in online at 200, 210, 20, 30, 40,
39:20240 and bid at 240. Lovely, lovely thing. At 250, 60, 70, 80, 90, 290. A little flurry there.
39:27At 290 it is, then at 290 for the lovely model on the board. Going to sell away, then, at 290.
39:33Oh, you might as well round it up for me. 300 in the nick of time. They do this to me.
39:38At 300 it is, then. Commission bids out. At 300.
39:42Now we're picking up some steam. He does work hard. And over the next five minutes,
39:47Angus powers through five more lots, including... At 100 pounds.
39:53The electric mountain bike and... Now at 50.
39:58The Weltmeister piano accordion.
40:01I love this pattern. Bringing us to the final two lots,
40:07the two industrial models that got Nick all fired up. The wonderful Chance Glassworks
40:13Furnace Boardroom Engineering Scale model. How on earth did you end up with this in your garage?
40:19I bought it ages ago because I just loved it and I thought I could never have enough hours in my life
40:23to make something like this. The detail is incredible. It is. There's no reserve on these models,
40:29so let's hope the bidders agree.
40:33400 pound a bid at 400 pound at 400. Let's be on now. 400 pounds at 400. We're off now. 420,
40:3740, 60, 80, 500, 520, 540. I've got two of you at 540. 560. When are you going to find another one?
40:44At 560, 580. Round it up. 600 surely now. 600 bid. We're just warming the furnace up. 620, 640. It's a great,
40:52great thing. 660, 680. You won't get another one. Well, apart from the next lot, but apart from that, at 680.
40:59The only two we know. Don't say that yet. 700. They're back in at 700. But that's why you want
41:04the pair. Yes, exactly. For 720. At 720 it is, then at 720, at 720 pounds.
41:13Right in the middle of its estimate.
41:17The second glass factory model comes with its own table stand.
41:21Lovely, lovely thing. Amazing detail on it there. Where should it be for this one? 500 pounds,
41:25army. 500. I mean, you really ought to keep the pair together, shouldn't you?
41:31Come on, glass factory enthusiasts. Don't shatter Martin's hopes now. 500 bid at 500,
41:37it is, then at 500. At 500, come on, the bidder that got the last one. You don't want to split
41:41these up. They belong together. This is slightly bigger. 520. Oh, there we go. They were just having
41:46a think about it. 520, 540, 560, 580. Round it up. 600 a bit. That's 600 pound. That's 620,
41:52640, 660, 680. 700. At 700 it is, then at 700 pounds it is, then at 700. We're all done for
41:59the engineering model at 700. Sold to somebody in the West Midlands who collects on an industrial
42:08scale. Nice thing. That was your last lot. With all of Martin's lot sold, it's time to tot up the grand
42:15total and see what Angus has raised to put towards his pub project. Oh, wow. Congratulations.
42:23That's all right. You are a genius to watch. Well, you're not crying too much. No. I was really
42:29happy about the industrial models. Yeah, I mean, they were superb. Yeah. But very niche. I know.
42:36Actually, on balance, I think I'm happy. Good. Well, you'll be taking home £2,133. Okay. That's
42:43great. Well, that's going to go. I'll probably buy some musical kit for the local kids to put in
42:49in the pub. So it's going to go to good use. Good. One thing for sure, the next pub I'll do,
42:53I'm going to have to take you shopping with me or come here again. Yeah, no, absolutely. You buy
42:58property auction. You don't go to the retailer. Exactly. This is true. What an experience. If it
43:04was going to happen with anybody, it couldn't be anyone better than Angus. It's not going to stop
43:09me going to the garbage. It's not going to stop me going to the antique fairs, but I'll definitely
43:13factor up auctions like this into my future buying. Will I be selling stuff? It's too much of an
43:21emotional rollercoaster. Probably not. Much of my wife's annoyance. I think we did all right for
43:26Martin, actually. We hit all the reserves and, you know, he's got a good sum to go back into the pub,
43:32his pub projects. Those engineering models, great things. They've sold and they've sold well. I think
43:37across the board, we did all right.
43:56all right.
