Hartlepool

Episode 4 of 26

Michael Aspel invites members of the public to bring along their antiques for examination. Treasures from Hartlepool include a Steiff teddy bear and a drug jar.

A Steiff teddy bear bought 'for the dog to play with', a huge Chinese paper passport which saved a family's life in 1926, and a drug jar which Oliver Cromwell might have seen are among the items brought to the experts in Hartlepool. Plus Michael Aspel is shown a piece of shrapnel which killed the owner's grandfather in the bombardment of Hartlepool in 1914.
