Trentham Gardens 2
Finds on a second visit to Trentham Gardens include an early movie camera, a dagger with a gruesome past and shawl that once belonged to a 1930s Hollywood star.
The Antiques Roadshow pays a second visit to Trentham Gardens near Stoke-on-Trent, as Fiona Bruce and the team of specialists prepare for another busy day valuing family treasures.
A very early movie camera excites expert Hilary Kay, who hears how it was first used in 1910 to record some natural history photography.
A dagger with a gruesome past turns out to have been a clever recent purchase, while a flamboyant shawl that once belonged to film heart-throb Dolores del Rio evokes the glamourous lifestyle of 1930s Hollywood.
Closing honours go to a small figure of a Chinese man made in Staffordshire in the 1750s.
