Short filmTranscript
00:04Cameras of silver in the bagging area.
00:06Best 250 pass.
00:08Wow, thank you very much.
00:10Vintage Cash Cow sponsors how to clean up for cash.
00:13Offer accepted.
00:16Crammed into cupboards, filling up our lofts and stuffed under beds.
00:21Clutter. Lord have mercy.
00:24As a nation, our homes are storing £32 billion worth of unused and unloved items.
00:30There's got to be some treasures amongst this.
00:32Oh, wow.
00:33You could be sitting on a fortune.
00:35Oh, my God.
00:37Without even knowing it.
00:39I don't think you realise how much money is on this bed.
00:41Being a car boot fanatic and passionate collector.
00:44Wow, this is incredible.
00:46What do you think about that, then?
00:48I love stuff.
00:51But over 60% of us are fed up with other people's clutter.
00:55What in the world is that?
00:57So I'm giving some long-suffering loved ones the chance to have it cleared.
01:02Flog it.
01:02And cash it in.
01:04£50,000.
01:05Whoa!
01:06In secret.
01:07You beckoned.
01:08We came.
01:09We have just 48 hours.
01:11My calves are hurting.
01:12For me and my team to infiltrate the homes of Clutter Culprits.
01:16Are the cameras all off?
01:17We're not going to get rumbled.
01:18Without them knowing.
01:19You look like you're doing something really bad.
01:21Do you?
01:21I am.
01:21While they're distracted shopping for bargains on a fake show.
01:25He obviously thinks he's on Hidden Treasure Challenge.
01:28You could have it for a fiver.
01:29Champion.
01:30We will be boxing up their belongings behind their back.
01:33Get rid of it.
01:34And finding out just how much it's worth.
01:36Whoa!
01:37Yes!
01:38Ready to sell the lot.
01:40These can go.
01:41These can go.
01:41Roofless, roofless man.
01:43When they return home.
01:45What is going on?
01:47All will be revealed.
01:49Whoa!
01:50Will they keep the clutter?
01:52Where's my things?
01:53Or take the cash?
01:59This time we're in Brighton.
02:01I can smell the vintage now.
02:03You can smell it, yeah.
02:03Do you know what I mean?
02:05Helping a new dad whose home is being taken over by his fiancee's stash of vintage treasures.
02:10She has to take the cash.
02:12I think she'd be silly not to.
02:21Beautiful.
02:23Absolutely gorgeous.
02:24I love Brighton.
02:25The people are different, aren't they?
02:27Oh, they are.
02:27They're so fashionable.
02:29I know.
02:29We fit in.
02:31Indeed.
02:31Talking of fashion, we have got a proper vintage queen on our hands, okay?
02:36Oh, wow, okay.
02:36So Dan has nominated his wife to be Natasha.
02:40She's so good at buying vintage.
02:42That she used to actually have an online vintage shop.
02:45But that's all been put on hold because they've just had a baby.
02:48And we've got to clear out this spare room that they've got in their flat for the baby.
02:53Okay.
02:54All of her belongings and all of her vintage treasures are spilling out of this room.
02:59Right.
02:59So it's our job to go in and make their home work for them as a family.
03:04I just hope she's got extra large.
03:13Is it this one?
03:14Yeah.
03:15I think it's this one.
03:16It's like being in a film, isn't it?
03:18It is.
03:19It is.
03:24Nice to meet you.
03:26Nice to meet you.
03:28Very good, thank you.
03:30Come through, guys.
03:31Should we divide and conquer?
03:32Absolutely.
03:33Yeah, let's do it.
03:34Should we go this way?
03:35You go that way.
03:35I'll take my shoes off.
03:36We'll go this way.
03:37Straight to the clutter.
03:38Tash wouldn't have it called clutter, though, would she?
03:40No, no, she wouldn't.
03:41She'd be mortified.
03:43Dan's taking me right to the back of the flat.
03:46To the spare room of doom.
03:50Oh, wow.
03:53As you can see, there's vintage clothes and records and jewellery and jackets and all sorts of things.
04:01I can smell the vintageness.
04:04You can smell it.
04:04Do you know what I mean?
04:05Oh, I love that musty smell.
04:08I'm in vintage heaven.
04:10I mean, looking around, you can see she has got an eye for things.
04:15No, she does.
04:15Tasha's got great taste, but it's just overwhelming.
04:18And this would make a beautiful baby's room.
04:21Yeah, wouldn't it just?
04:22Is the baby still in with you, then?
04:24Yeah.
04:24Monroe, our daughter, she's eight months at the moment, and she's in the bedroom, but eventually she's going to fly
04:29that nest, and this might be the nest, but not with all of this stuff in here.
04:37So, Natasha has a lot of stuff.
04:39She's had various shops over the years where she's sold vintage, but since the birth of Monroe, she's had less
04:47time to work, and things have built up.
04:49And ended up filling the back room with all of the varied, clutterous, is that a word? Clutterous items.
04:57Um, sorry.
04:59Is it clutterous or what?
05:02It's a new one on me, Dan.
05:05Either way, Natasha's got some serious style.
05:08I do love this jacket.
05:10Oh!
05:13Oh, my God.
05:14It fits you perfectly, actually, that one, yeah.
05:16Is this a real cow?
05:17Yeah.
05:18I think it's probably 70s.
05:20Don't worry about it.
05:20I had a steak last night.
05:21Yeah.
05:21I think that really suits me.
05:24This isn't just clutter.
05:26This is couture clutter.
05:29Natasha's vintage haul also includes crockery, ornaments, and even a bust of our Lord and Savior.
05:38And she's been squirreling stuff away in the living room, too.
05:42I mean, there's so many watches here.
05:44Some female bits here.
05:45Jax, I've been in this business for over 25 years, and I've got to tell you, I've never seen as
05:52many watches in a private collection as this.
05:55Everyone knows that a nice vintage watch can sell for shed loads, but it's the neo-vintage watch market that's
06:04really on the up right now.
06:05Some 1980s timepieces have risen in value by 120% in the past five years.
06:14I think that we've got some really great pieces here.
06:16The thing that I'm slightly concerned about is that, as a dealer, is she going to want the retail price
06:22for them?
06:23Can we achieve the price that she wants?
06:26For the convenience of taking away all of Natasha's vintage clutter in one go, we'll be valuing everything at an
06:33auction price.
06:34I hope she goes for it, because Dan is determined to make this Munro's new bedroom and make the flat
06:40work for them as a family.
06:42Jackie, did you think it was, like, a treasure chest in there?
06:45Well, yeah, but there is some stuff that is clutter.
06:49Obviously, your baby's eight months, and that space could be an amazing room for her.
06:52Yeah, yeah. What's the point in having a clutter room?
06:54It's such a shame that your priorities totally change when you have kids.
06:58Yeah.
06:59Right, Jackie, where do we start?
07:03Right, we're going to work in categories.
07:04Clothes, shoes, accessories, electronics.
07:06Right, clothes, shoes, accessories, electronics.
07:08Yeah, and we're going to take it out of the room and put them in here and sort them out
07:11into categories here.
07:12I'll help you with the clothes.
07:13Okay.
07:16Running a business from home means you have to be disciplined with your stock.
07:20The golden rule that Natasha should be following is FIFO.
07:25First in, first out.
07:26This is to make sure that the older items are sold first and to stop them from taking over the
07:31living space.
07:33Oh, look at all that.
07:34Come on, Joseph, let's go.
07:36Oh, I want it.
07:38I know I should be mucking in, but I can't help myself.
07:42Oh, my God, Ralph Lauren.
07:46I'm not going to be any good in here.
07:48Josie.
07:49So sorry, Jack, I can't help it.
07:51Come on.
07:52I don't think you realise.
07:54Sorry.
07:54The time is going.
07:56Okay.
07:56Right, best pull my finger out.
07:59I'll take this.
08:01Got your eyes on my jacket?
08:02Everything.
08:05I can feel, like, the relief as you're bringing stuff down.
08:08And that's the beauty of the pastoring.
08:09That is it.
08:10I can see why this means so much to Dan, but I am worried.
08:14He's doing it all behind Natasha's back, and we all know you don't mess with a new mum.
08:19I just hope she appreciates what we're trying to do here.
08:23Right, crockery was over in this corner, was it, Jack?
08:25Yeah, over there.
08:26Yeah.
08:27Oh, it's Coltonware.
08:29Don't you think this is cute, guys?
08:31Kitchens up and down the country would have had these, so you'd have your tossed salad in there.
08:34I think it's beautiful.
08:36Look at the glazing on it.
08:37Can you see how fabulous that is?
08:39These leaf dishes, made by Staffordshire Pottery Company, Coltonware, fetch about £40 or £50.
08:45But if you find one of their Art Deco vases at the back of the cupboard, you could be laughing.
08:51They go for about a grand apiece.
08:54Look, they're not going to fit, are they?
08:56Oh, look.
08:58I feel like Cinderella's sister.
08:59Every time I see you, you've got something different on.
09:02It's getting a bit weird now.
09:04While I dream of Prince Charming, Natasha's been lured away to do what she loves best on my made-up
09:10TV show, Hidden Treasure Challenge.
09:13All right, have you got any vintage ones?
09:15She thinks her and Monroe are going head-to-head with Dan, picking up vintage gems.
09:20I would say I'm quite a competitive person, yes.
09:24It's definitely something that pushes me to try and, like, be the best at what I do.
09:29As the fake host of my fake show, I need to ring to check Natasha's still none the wiser.
09:37Right, I'm not ready for this.
09:39Let me put another watch on.
09:41Okay.
09:42Ready?
09:43Right, I'm ready.
09:49Hello?
09:50Natasha, Josie Gibson, Hidden Treasure Challenge.
09:52How are you getting on?
09:55Hi there.
09:56Yeah, I'm doing okay.
09:57All right, what have you picked up so far?
10:00So, so far, I've picked up a vintage watch.
10:03Oh, you're into watches, are you?
10:05I do like to buy and sell them, because I seem to be quite good at it.
10:09And what else is your thing?
10:11I love clothes and fashion, so naturally, I do a lot of that.
10:15Is baby Monroe with you?
10:16She is, yeah.
10:17Yeah, she's literally strapped to me, sleeping.
10:20Well, do you know what?
10:21I cannot wait to meet you.
10:24I feel like I know you already.
10:28Bye.
10:29Bye.
10:31Jag!
10:32I'm such a deceiving cow.
10:34So what has she picked up?
10:36What has she got?
10:37Watches.
10:38Not watches.
10:39More watches.
10:39I'm telling you, this is the problem.
10:41She's so cute.
10:42She's so hard to lie to.
10:43Oh, really?
10:44Did you feel good?
10:45Did it anyway.
10:45I did it anyway.
10:52It's a new day, and we only have four hours to value and box up Natasha's vintage clutter
10:58before she returns.
11:00So, we've hit the road nice and early.
11:03Are you going to behave today?
11:04I behaved every day, Dan.
11:06She was out of control yesterday.
11:08No.
11:10Oh, it's producer Tom.
11:12Hello, Tom.
11:13Hi, Tom.
11:14Hi, JC.
11:16We've just found out that Natasha is getting hit early, so you've only got two hours to box
11:23up everything.
11:25Two hours!
11:26Can't do in two hours.
11:28You are joking.
11:29Why is she coming back early?
11:30Please tell me we have not been rumbled.
11:33Oh, my goodness.
11:34I work in these conditions.
11:36Two hours.
11:37Oh, my goodness.
11:38Guys, we're going to have to step on it.
11:45Cameras silver in the bagging area.
11:47Best 250 pass.
11:48Wow.
11:49Thank you very much.
11:51Vintage Qashqai sponsors how to clean up for cash.
11:54Offer accepted.
11:55Cameras silver in the bagging area.
11:57Best 250 pass.
11:58Wow.
11:59Thank you very much.
12:01Vintage Qashqai sponsors how to clean up for cash.
12:04Offer accepted.
12:09We're in Brighton, helping Dan sort out his fiancée Natasha's vintage stockpile to make
12:14bedroom space for their baby daughter, Monroe.
12:18But...
12:18My calves are hurting.
12:20We're in trouble.
12:21She's on her way home, and our time to get everything boxed up and valued has been slashed
12:26in half.
12:28So, you say you think Tasha's coming back earlier than expected.
12:30Well, she's getting here to her train.
12:33I don't know whether we've been rumbled, but we've literally got two hours.
12:37Okay.
12:38No pressure.
12:39We're up against it, but before we box it all up, I've got a killer question for Dan.
12:45What figure will she say yes to?
12:48Oh, honestly, I don't know.
12:50Don't forget, we are giving you the chance to take all of this job slot.
12:55Yeah, I see the...
12:56Problem solved.
12:57...benefits, yeah.
12:58I suppose it is what Tasha thinks is a lovely figure at the end of the day.
13:02Exactly.
13:03If Natasha decides to take the cash, it would be quite exciting, but she's good at finding
13:09a bargain.
13:10She's quite cutthroat with stuff, and I think I've found that in our relationship, too.
13:15Uh-oh.
13:17I see trouble ahead.
13:19Joes.
13:20Yeah?
13:20Take a look at this.
13:21Christian Dior.
13:22Oh, now we're talking.
13:24So, this is about 1978.
13:26That's a 1978 jacket?
13:29And that's why designer vintage is so popular, because it stands a test of time.
13:33You could pick that up for about 70, 80 pounds.
13:36No!
13:37Yes!
13:38Sorry, Josie, just because something's got a designer label, it doesn't mean it's going
13:43to sell for a fortune.
13:45You need two things, condition and rarity, and if you've got both of those, then you could
13:50be looking at top dollar.
13:52Ooh!
13:53What's this bag of tricks?
13:56Well, this is all costume jewellery, Josie.
13:59The way of getting that look, that aesthetic, without spending a fortune on gold and silver.
14:04Right.
14:04Beautifully made, very intricate, and there's a good market for these.
14:07Costume jewellery made from non-precious metal and synthetic stones rarely fetches a lot
14:13of money, but it does depend on a particular piece of story.
14:17In 2017, a bracelet worn by Elizabeth Taylor in her famous role as Cleopatra sold for over
14:2416,000 pounds.
14:27Oh, no, my hair's a mess.
14:29Time to find out what Natasha's costume jewellery is worth with a little call to my pal Anthony
14:34at Vintage Cash Cow.
14:38Hello, hello!
14:40I never thought I'd see you again.
14:41Now, Anthony, I've got some real treasures here.
14:44Look at this.
14:47Gorgeous, gorgeous costume jewellery.
14:49What do you think about that, then?
14:51It excites me.
14:52I love costume jewellery.
14:54Look at that.
14:55Wow.
14:56OK.
14:57All right, well, all of that stuff there, I would imagine, is going to be worth somewhere
15:01between 40 and 60 pounds.
15:06Don't be looking at me like that.
15:07I'm going to have to give you some more money for it.
15:09Listen, we need as much money as we can for this, Anthony.
15:11All right.
15:12Just show me it in like a bundle.
15:14Hold the camera over it.
15:16OK, I'm going to take a chance here, Josie.
15:19And I'm going to say costume jewellery, 100 pounds.
15:23Anthony, thank you so much.
15:26I'll see you later.
15:27Bye, bye.
15:29The lighting on that costume jewellery must have looked amazing because he's given me
15:33100 pounds for that.
15:36Woo-hoo!
15:38That's all my years at car boot sales finally paying off.
15:43Right, guys, I'm not here to alarm anybody, but she's around the corner.
15:46Oh!
15:47This is it.
15:48Let's get a pyramid going.
15:50Yeah.
15:50Four, then three.
15:51Four, then three at the top.
15:52So three at the top.
15:54Is that it?
15:55Are there any more in the hallway?
15:56I think that's it.
15:57This is, these are the last two boxes.
15:58Are these the last one?
16:01Just under two days ago, Natasha's spare room of doom was full of clutter.
16:08Now, completely cleared out, it's ready to be transformed into a space for their baby Monroe.
16:15We filled 32 boxes with Natasha's vintage wares, all of which have been catalogued and valued.
16:21Right, how are you feeling?
16:23A little bit more nervous now.
16:25Well, when it all sinks in that we have been in your fiancé's house behind her back, bagging up all
16:31her belongings, it could go one of two ways.
16:33It has to go one way and she has to take the cash.
16:36That's how I feel.
16:36I think it should be silly not to.
16:38Go on.
16:39Good luck, Chelsea.
16:41Thank you guys, thank you.
16:43And she's on.
16:44Thank you so much.
16:46Have fun.
16:48Blissfully unaware that we've boxed up her vintage goods, Natasha is around the corner.
16:53Don't worry.
16:54Waiting to see how Dan has done on my fake TV show.
16:58There she is.
16:59There she is.
17:01There she is.
17:01Get back.
17:01Get back.
17:02Get back.
17:03We're going to run to the red car.
17:05I'm going to duck down and then come up behind her.
17:08I'm getting pretty good at this, even if I do say so myself.
17:12All whilst she's enjoying it and, like, widening her own sort of, like, horizons in that sense.
17:18Natasha, Josie Gibson.
17:20Hidden treasure challenge.
17:22Hey.
17:22Hello.
17:24How are you, little Munro?
17:26How are you?
17:27Why don't we go back to Mummy and Daddy's house and all will be revealed?
17:33Yeah?
17:34Oh, Lord.
17:35Natasha has no idea.
17:38Is this your house?
17:39Yeah, this is mine.
17:40Oh, wicked.
17:41Oh, they're there.
17:42They're there.
17:42They're coming.
17:43They're there.
17:44Can we go in?
17:47Come on in.
17:48Wow.
17:50Hello.
17:50Hello.
17:58What's in the boxes?
18:01I think it's time that we came clean.
18:04Okay.
18:05Natasha, you have not been on Hidden Treasure Challenge.
18:09Hidden Treasure Challenge is a totally fake show.
18:12The show you've actually been in is how to clean up for cash.
18:17And your husband-to-be, Dan, has nominated you.
18:20Right.
18:21Okay.
18:22Natasha, we've been in your house for the last two days.
18:25What?
18:26Yeah, we've been a bit sneaky for a little while.
18:29Sorry.
18:30We've been in the room of doom.
18:32We've boxed up your vintage collection.
18:35And we've got a value on everything here.
18:37And we can take it away today for you.
18:41Before you make any decisions,
18:44I'd really like you to go and have a look at the spare room.
18:46Right.
18:47Because that could potentially be Monroe's new little bedroom.
18:55Oh, my God.
18:57What?
18:59So, remember all that stuff.
19:01Okay.
19:02That's good, right?
19:04Yeah.
19:04I mean, Monroe's new.
19:05Monroe's new.
19:06Monroe's new.
19:06It's your new bedroom.
19:08This is crazy.
19:09Now she's seen the room,
19:11it all comes down to what Natasha thinks of our offer for her vintage stash.
19:16And I've got no idea which way this is going to go.
19:21So, Natasha.
19:22Yeah.
19:23Dan Hatfield has put a price on every single item.
19:26This is an auction price.
19:29And we can sell this today for you at a grand total of £2,700.
19:39Okay.
19:42Natasha's jewellery comes to £520.
19:45Her mammoth watch collection to £750.
19:49And her haul of vintage clothes, shoes and accessories to £870.
19:55The remaining items come to £560,
19:59giving a total auction price of £2,700.
20:06Now the power is in your hands.
20:08Right.
20:09This is your decision.
20:12I do feel quite nervous.
20:14I just, yeah, I need to have a little think.
20:19Do you think she's going to be happy with the money?
20:21I don't know.
20:22Well, I've done, I've done my best.
20:25Let's just listen to what they're trying to say.
20:27So, yeah, obviously we've got a, um, a good space with none of the stuff.
20:32But then it's if the price is, makes sense for you, isn't it?
20:35Yeah.
20:35I mean, it's amazing.
20:37I mean, I just took years collecting some, like, really nice pieces.
20:40So, I think.
20:41I think there's just so many opportunities with it that we couldn't have when the stuff was,
20:46um, was in here.
20:47I actually feel dizzy.
20:49This is really stressful.
20:51But after almost 30 minutes, Natasha and Dan are back.
20:56Hello.
20:57Hello.
20:59Hey.
20:59Have you had a good little chat?
21:01We did.
21:02Not a little chat.
21:03A long...
21:03An intense chat.
21:05So, are you going to take the cash or keep the clutter?
21:16I'm going to keep the clutter.
21:18Oh.
21:21Can I ask why?
21:23Well, I'm going to be coming off maternity soon and I need something to sort of generate
21:29me an income and this is the perfect opportunity and I can, like, really just get into it and
21:35start selling stuff and doing what I'm actually really good at, which is making money from
21:39buying and selling.
21:41Dan, I've got to ask, you know, you've called us in.
21:43We've been busy here for the last two days.
21:45How do you feel now?
21:46I feel like it's a shame, but at the same time, I understand Tasha's reasoning and, you
21:53know, what she thinks she might be able to get for it.
21:55Yeah.
21:55What things are worth.
21:56It just would have been nice, but there we go.
22:01And do you know what, Natasha?
22:02I think you've found a brand new client, Josie Gibson.
22:07There's that.
22:08Hey, bestie.
22:10Everybody say clutter.
22:12Clutter.
22:13Clutter.
22:22Next time.
22:23I just think I like lots of things.
22:25We tackle a pub landlady's lifetime of collections.
22:28These can go.
22:29These can go.
22:30But her partner gets carried away.
22:33So you're saying we could have potentially boxed up your dead dog's ashes?
22:38That's right.
23:04Watchers, gold in the bagging area.
23:06Vintage Cash Cow sponsors how to clean up for cash.
