BBC Antiques Roadshow - Tredegar House 1 (2016) 720p HDTV x264-MVGroup

Tredegar House near Newport in Wales provides a colourful backdrop for a show that includes a carved coconut and a frog-shaped brooch, the story of a daring D-Day raid as told by a veteran commando and a tapestry woven in tribute to rock band Status Quo. Fiona Bruce introduces one of the finest 17th-century houses in Britain, once home to the eccentric Evan Morgan, who as Viscount Tredegar dabbled in the occult and kept a menagerie of pets that included a boxing kangaroo and a baboon. The team admire a Victorian brooch in the shape of a frog and an intricately carved coconut steeped in 18th-century maritime history, while a former Mastermind champion proudly shows off the glass vase he was awarded
