A second visit for Fiona Bruce and the experts at Stowe School in Buckinghamshire brings thousands of visitors eager to discover more about their heirlooms.
Featured on the programme are a KCVO awarded to the surgeon who operated on George VI at Buckingham Palace and bestowed by the king in his dressing gown, a single plate from 'the finest porcelain dinner service ever made', worth five figures, which must represent one of the best-ever returns on investment, plus racing driver Jackie Stewart brings in two silver cups awarded for his prowess at a very different sport.
Perhaps most memorable though must be the show closer, which features a remarkable series of stories of animal service in wartime, complete with a knockout valuation.
