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

First through the doors is ‘Cuba Steve’, with an unusual but beautiful object saved from an old theatre. Will the dealers realise what it is and be prepared to part with their cash?

Next is Rachel from Rotherham, with a vintage stereoscope and 75 images from around the globe. It is an amazing 3D glimpse into the past that provokes some strong emotions among the dealers. However, will Rachel see her way to a sale?

Third to face the dealers is Stephen from Stafford, with two gigantic apothecary glasses that have the wow factor. He is determined to get a high price, but will he succeed?

Fourth of our would-be sellers is Ryan, with a unique children’s game that is thought to date from the 19th century. He is convinced the dealers will love it, but will any of them bite?

Last in is Beth, with a very special teddy with a voice. With a toy collector on the panel, can Beth haggle herself both a great price and new loving home for her bear?

Today's dealers are Adi, Ian, James, Jane and Tash. Will any of them buy? And if they do, will any of them match, or even top, the valuation placed on each of the items? Show less
