The Antiques Roadshow pays a visit to Lowther Castle in Cumbria, once home to the flamboyant Earl of Lonsdale - known as 'the Yellow Earl' for his distinctive livery - where treasures include make-up from the glamorous era of the flappers, a mysterious letterbox and a stuffed dog with an aristocratic pedigree.

Hilary Kay is charmed by a 19th-century toy steamboat with a magnetic secret, the team are amused by a saucy illustration by Lawson Wood and the owner of an unusual letterbox receives a surprising valuation.

Jewellery specialist Joanna Hardy evokes the romance and glamour of high-society Manhattan as she admires a lipstick and compact set from Van Cleef & Arpels, while a rare letter provides a bloody, first-hand account of the 1916 Easter Rising rebellion in Ireland.

There's also another chance to meet Bess, a stuffed terrier first seen on the Roadshow in 2011, as specialist Clive Stewart-Lockhart offers his thoughts on the antique taxidermy market - and whether Bess might once have belonged to the Earl of Lonsdale.
