Snooker superstars Dennis Taylor and Willie Thorne have faced each other over the green baize many times, but they've never been in a bargain hunting competition before. Accompanied by their wives, the pair shop for pieces at an antique centre in Chelsea. Among the items Dennis picks is a set of silver 'clay pigeon' spoons and a silver letter knife, while Willie is drawn to an arts and crafts wooden picture frame and an 18th century snuff box. Antiques experts James Lewis and Paul Laidlaw are there to lend a hand and advise the teams on their buys. At the auction in Wandsworth there is keen bidding, but not all the balls are potted.
