Duration: 45 minutes

TV presenters Vanessa Feltz and Nicki Chapman go head-to-head to see who is the best at spotting antique bargains.

The two teams scour an antique centre in Farnham, Surrey, to find three items each, which they can then sell for profit at an auction in London. Among the items Vanessa opts for is a needlepoint footstool while Nicki chooses some decorative vases.

During their visit to Farnham, Tim Wonnacott takes time out to talk to Vanessa about her collection of salt and pepper pots. He then shows her a stunning 26,000-pound silver gilt and enamel salt cellar, borrowed from a new exhibition at Goldsmiths' Hall and made by Fred Rich.

Nicki owns up to a passion for costume jewellery and, after she has shown Tim a few of her favourite pieces, he supplies some examples of work from two of the top costume jewellery designers, Miriam Haskell and Ken Lane.
