Tredegar House 2
The Roadshow returns to Tredegar House, where finds include a locket given by Queen Victoria, a Welsh-made classic car and an implement for creating tattoos.
The Antiques Roadshow returns to Tredegar House near Newport in Wales, where finds include a locket given by Queen Victoria, a Welsh-made classic car and a rather grisly looking implement for creating tattoos.
Fiona Bruce is very taken with a special cigar cutter which commemorates the opening of the ingenious Newport Transporter Bridge, and expert Lee Young sheds light on some papers bought at a car boot sale which advertise mid-19th-century executions.
There's also the sad story of a miniature font used during the Irish potato famine to bring comfort to ailing families, and a very versatile tiara which proves to be an important family heirloom.
