May I see the glove, please?
I'd like to have a look at it.
Example. It's amazing, isn't it?
And this is
the stamp from Space City?
Not Space City. Only,
the stamp of the space station.
Oh, that's from Mir?
From Mir. Wonderful.
Now, I presume this is something you
would like to put into the auction?
Great. If you want.
They might look poor but the latest
estimate is that in private hands,
cash, there's roughly $8-10 billion
circulating around.
Obviously it's not held
by the majority of people
but by a minority, but nevertheless
there is
a very affluent minority here.

I've been in jail, prison...
God wants to breathe
into you life today.
WOMAN TRANSLATES INTO RUSSIAN
So that you will see things
in a new way.
God wants to save you today.
You're probably not going to
get out of here right now,
but if you would
accept Jesus into your heart,
There's more.
Because after I die, Jesus...
..is going to take me into Paradise.
Are you going to be the one...
..and goes to hell?

INTRODUCTION IN RUSSIAN
APPLAUSE
Thank you very much. Thank you.
I came here as a friend and
supporter of the democratic changes
going on in this country.
I hope that together
we can make a positive difference
in a genuine and equal partnership.

The propaganda plate,
if it had been in perfect condition,
would have been worth about £1,000.
I can see
it's got a slight chip, so...
WOMAN TRANSLATES INTO RUSSIAN
..it's going to reduce
its value considerably.
That we valued
at between £3,000 and £5,000.
WOMEN TRANSLATES INTO RUSSIAN
Now, here,
this extraordinary clock...
Well, what's extraordinary is
this is an English clock
from roughly 1790.
We've valued it
at between £1,000 and £1,500.
Well, the low estimate's
really at around £12,000
just on those few items.
12,000? £12,000.
MAN SPEAKS IN RUSSIAN
So this is the rough figure?
This is the rough figure?
It's a low estimate.
One way or another, it works out
between 12,000 and 18,000.
PEOPLE CHEER
GUITAR PLAYS, PEOPLE SING
They don't want us here.
They're saying that, you know,
"You guys shouldn't be here,
this isn't your...your people."
That's a guy just told me.
He was...
"You shouldn't be here,
what are you doing here?
"This isn't your people."
This is my people, that's the thing.
I mean, maybe God will
make them understand somehow.
I don't know, but...

WOMAN TRANSLATES INTO RUSSIAN
No medicine.
We saw two babies die because
they didn't have antibiotics.
No bandages...
TRANSLATOR: Well, can you
give us antibiotics?
You are the rich country.
No bandages...
He speaks about his own mother?
His own mother? Is that enough?
