Episode 9 of 30

Nigel stands on seller Chris as he lies on the bed of nails he wants to sell to one of the dealers. Some Japanese whiskey and a classic Chopper bike are also on offer.

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

Janette from Essex wants to sell her husband’s old Chopper bike. It’s a 1970s classic, and Nigel reminisces about owning one himself. Jeanette is convinced it’s bound to sell, but the dealers aren’t so sure as it needs plenty of restoration work. Father and son Derek and Ryan from Scotland are selling a bottle of Japanese whiskey, while 18-year-old Jude has brought in a beautifully preserved, hand-written account of a First World War Zeppelin raid on Southend.

Last but not least, part-time entertainer Chris has brought in a bed of nails. He arrives complete with his performing cape and is determined to put on a show for the dealers, with Nigel's help. Lying down on the nails, he invites Nigel to stand on his chest – to the amazement of the dealers.

The dealers today are Jane Cave, Tash Francis, Adi Higham, James Gooch and Ian Humphries.
