BBC One - Antiques Roadshow, Series 37, Walthamstow Town Hall 2

Treasures include an art deco pendant with a hint of Egypt and some charming tiles.

The Antiques Roadshow return to Waltham Forest Town Hall, where finds include an art deco pendant and a purse that saved the life of a German soldier.

The Antiques Roadshow returns to Waltham Forest Town Hall in east London, where a bright and busy day reveals an art deco pendant with a hint of ancient Egypt, a haul of charming tiles discovered behind a chimney and a purse that saved the life of a German soldier in World War I.

Fiona Bruce welcomes viewers with a celebration of Walthamstow's most famous son, designer William Morris, exploring the inspiration for his arts and crafts style and his passion for politics.

Dazzling finds include an art deco pendant that may have been constructed around an ancient Egyptian scarab beetle more than three thousand years old and a Chinese enamel box discovered amongst a 20p car-boot haul.

Specialist Mark Hill raises an eyebrow at a vintage cigarette advert describing the benefits of smoking, and a young couple show off a huge collection of turn-of-the-century tiles they found behind a chimney when they were renovating their house.

A visiting Chelsea pensioner wonders whether he should swap his impressive collection of belt buckles for a cruise, while a vintage 60s jacket with a Beatles connection catches the eye of specialist Lisa Lloyd.

The show also provides two fascinating glimpses of World War I from the German perspective, including a neck purse that saved a soldier's life and a stunning collection of spiky pickelhaube helmets and uniforms with a value that leaves its owner visibly moved.
