Antiques Roadshow: Series 46: Swanage Pier and Seafront, Dorset 2

Swanage Pier and Seafront, Dorset 2

BBC One - Antiques Roadshow, Series 46, Swanage Pier and Seafront, Dorset 2

This episode comes from the sunny surroundings of Swanage Pier in Dorset.

In Swanage, Dorset, the treasures include dinosaur footprints, a pottery pelican and a valuable art deco bronze sculpture of a woman.

The Antiques Roadshow is at Swanage Pier in Dorset on England's Jurassic Coast, where Cristian Beadman stumbles across dinosaur footprints in the queue. 

The seaside provides the perfect setting for an unusual, beaded glass window saved from a fish shop and a collection of waterline model boats that Marc Allum describes as ‘big boy’s toys.’

Serhat Ahmet is intrigued by a life-size pottery model of a pelican by famous maker Doulton, and Raj Bisram is excited to see an American baseball bat and mitt dating to the Second World War.

Geoffrey Munn is thrilled to see the original designs for the coronet for King Charles, created for his Investiture as Prince of Wales in 1969 by master goldsmith Louis Osmond, and he discovers the surprising role a ping pong ball played as its crowning glory.

John Benjamin appraises intimate photographs and jewellery belonging to the exiled dowager empress Maria Feodorovna, mother of the last tsar of Russia, while Ronnie Archer Morgan challenges Fiona to guess the odd one out from his unique private collection of walking sticks.

Will Farmer ends the day on a high with lost wax casting in bronze by sought-after sculptor Joseph Bernard – a central figure in the Paris art deco movement, who worked with the same foundry as Degas and whose work is displayed in the Louvre.
