Going, Going, Gone!

The popular reality auction series Going, Going Gone appeals to the magpie in all of us. What is granny’s old camera worth? Is there money in pottery? It’s voyeuristic but interesting and will have viewers rummaging through their garages to see what treasure they can uncover to make a quick buck. Feel for the vendor, get excited for the buyer and marvel at how the auctioneer works the room. Exciting and unpredictable but riveting to watch…

Barney and Adele are hunter gathers from Taranaki. They share a love of hunting; they also share a love of taxidermy. But family comes first for Barney and Adele and when they become grandparents it’s time for the taxidermy to head north to Auckland and to Webb’s for auction. Auctioneer James Parkinson and the Going, Going Gone team travel to “the naki” to see first hand just how many dead animals can fit into a small farm cottage. The auction is hilarious and unpredictable but proves that you really can flog a dead horse…or a least a stuffed lion.

A secret society or a society of secrets? The freemasons welcome the Going, Going Gone team into their mysterious world. Desiree Collins is a co freemason, the order of the masons that includes both men and women.
