Wollaton Hall 2
The team visit Wollaton Hall in Nottingham, where treasures include Batman鈥檚 mask, a portrait of a forgotten female Romantic poet, and Elizabethan clothing of extreme rarity.
Antiques Roadshow comes from the beautiful grounds of Wollaton Hall, an imposing Elizabethan mansion in Nottingham.
Having once served as Wayne Manor in the Dark Knight trilogy of Batman films, Wollaton Hall is the perfect backdrop for Fiona Bruce as she tries to guess the value of Batman鈥檚 mask, his utility belt and the Joker鈥檚 suit, as worn by Jack Nicholson. She also comes face to face with a mighty T rex as she tells the story of Titus, whose bones were discovered in America in 2014 and have been on display at Wollaton Hall.
Expert Adam Schoon examines personal items brought to the UK in 1972 by Ugandan Asians fleeing their country; paintings expert Rupert Maas discovers a miniature portrait of a forgotten female Romantic poet feted by William Wordsworth; and Hilary Kay turns up some intricate Elizabethan clothing of extreme rarity and value.
