Bishop's Palace 1

Antiques Roadshow visits the Bishop's Palace, a site of special religious significance for over 800 years in the heart of Wells in Somerset.

On a hot summer's day, Marc Allum reveals that a modest Delft plaque from a Bristol pub, decorated with a drinking song by composer Henry Purcell, could be of national importance – with a value to match.

Lawrence Hendra admires a portrait of an unknown First World War army officer that was salvaged from a skip, and Geoffrey Munn is transfixed by a group of Victorian mourning rings that contain woven strands of the hair of the departed.

Jewellery specialist Joey Hardy is dazzled by a brooch and earrings designed in the 1940s by Cartier, while Lennox Cato meets the Bishop of Taunton and gets a rare chance to see the fabled 16th-century Glastonbury Chair.

The team are also excited to see a collection of movie memorabilia, including rare posters for movies such as Alien, while Chris Yeo challenges Fiona to identify the ‘basic, better and best' from a group of objects by Finnish designers.

The Studio

As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their own insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films. With their power suits masking their never-ending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting, and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe. As someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes movies, it's the job Matt's been pursuing his whole life, and it may very well destroy him.
