Bid for a piece of BBC Television Centre history in online auction
Most of it is camera and studio equipment, alongside a strangely generous collection of old washing machines (wonder what celebrity smalls have spun through those over the past 50 years?).
But amongst the electrical bric-a-brac there are some genuine jewels to be found, from the Match of the Day backdrop to signed Strictly Come Dancing photographs and a Doctor Who canvas.
This is the second-such auction to be held. The last one held in June raised £90,000, and included a desk from the set of Newsnight.

At 22m long, this is hardly a "small" piece of sporting TV history, but the Match of the Day backdrop from 2007-11 is perfect for anyone who's ever thought they could do a better job than Alan Shearer.

Series six of Strictly Come Dancing – yes, the one with John Sergeant – was a highlight, and this signed photograph of all the celebrity couples must have been missed by the moving team.
This is the house that Morecambe and Wise built. A true piece of Television Centre nostalgia.
If the Match of the Day studio is a bit too big for the average home, this jumbled collection of BBC Sport prints should fill the gap.
How confused would your neighbours be if you hung this up outside your house?
A well-worn copy of photographer David Bailey's 60s celebrity snaps, including this iconic Beatles spread.
A Christmas pressie for the shy and retiring – or perhaps a novel toilet door sign?
