SEGMENTS

Each show is made up of a number of Segment s:
  • Under the Hammer, in which former journalist and auction expert Justin Murphy journeys to Auction s where he selects objects for the panel to bid on. The panelist who is closest to the eventual price wins the segment for the week.

  • Passionate Collector, in which a collector is profiled.

  • Mystery Object, in which the panel is presented with an obscure object or collectible and is asked to identify it.

  • Roving Eye, in which Gordon Brown investigates antique furniture and other collectibles.

  • My Obsession, another profile of a collector.

  • Show and Tell, in which viewers send in photographs of objects and the panel identifies and values the object.

  • Collector Cam, in which viewers send in videos detailing their collections. This is a competition and the winner's collection (voted by viewers) is displayed at the end of the year at the National Museum Of Australia in Canberra . It appears that this segment will not return for the 2007 season.

    • Reports by various panel members on certain areas of collecting are also included in most episodes.
