Antiques Roadshow

Wrest Park 1 (41x11)

:

This week, Antiques Roadshow is at Wrest Park in Bedfordshire, a grand house built in the style of a French chateau. Treasures turning up include a dazzling diamond and ruby pendant, an exotic and rare snuff container and a chair that once belonged to the Artful Dodger! Fiona Bruce finds out how Wrest Park was one of the first stately homes in Britain to be transformed into a First World War hospital and convalescence home. Two owners of Daum glassware are itching for expert Andy McDonnell to tell them which is worth the most, while picture specialist Rupert Maas congratulates one visitor on her keen eye after she explains how she bagged a bargain at a car boot sale.
