An Antiques Roadshow guest was left gobsmacked after her family heirloom was valued by the BBC experts.
The guest took along her stunning gold brooch which had been in the family for years when the popular show was filmed in Brodie Castle, Wales. Examining the unique artefact, expert Geoffrey Munn began: "The sun is coming out and here we see gold, and we see rubies and we see diamonds but what does it mean?"
"So, it's a brooch which I inherited via my mother, from my great-aunt and they come from Silesia, which is today Southern Poland," the guest replied. "They had to flee from the Russians during the end of the war and they made it over to West Germany. She was a cook and housekeep to Prince Ernst August of Hanover for 37 years."
