When is the Antiques Roadshow Christmas special?

The Antiques Roadshow Christmas special is on Sunday, December 22 on BBC One at 7.30 pm.

The BBC says: "In a special festive episode, the Antiques Roadshow team look back at some of the most memorable items from recent shows and find out what happened next.

"From a beautiful brooch with a link to a renowned Parisian jeweller to a medal awarded for the ultimate sacrifice, Fiona and the team present a heartwarming and often moving look back at poignant items and mysterious treasures that have appeared on the show."

Are there any specials coming up?

Yes, the Christmas special! The other most recent special was the D-Day special which is still available on iPlayer to watch.

The BBC said of the special: "Filmed in Normandy and at the D-Day Story Museum in Portsmouth, the episode features remarkable first-hand testimony from those who were there, including veteran Ken Cooke. Across five beaches, codenamed Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword, ‘Operation Overlord’ was the largest seaborne invasion in history — an event that would turn the tide of World War Two and lead ultimately to the defeat of Germany and victory for the Allies just under a year later, in May 1945. With our Roadshow experts at locations across the UK, we unfold the story of D-Day through various items brought in by our visitors, and rare artifacts held in various museums."

Who presents Antiques Roadshow?

Fiona Bruce is the current Antiques Roadshow presenter.

Is Antiques Roadshow currently filming?

No, filming has now finished for the next series. The locations Fiona and her team filmed at were Pitzhanger Manor and Gallery in London; Cromford Mills, Cromford; Firstsite Art Gallery, Colchester; Thirlestane Castle, Lauder; Beaumaris Castle, Anglesey and Botanic Gardens, Belfast.

Talking about filming her seventeenth series of Antiques Roadshow, Fiona Bruce says: "A new series of the Antiques Roadshow begins again and I, for one, can’t wait. Travelling the length and breadth of the UK to see what the great British public have pulled out of their attics and off their shelves. I know we’ll see items of great quality and value — but I’m always drawn in by a moving personal story too. They are what often stick longest in my memory. And I’m determined to improve my record on Basic, Better, Best. Surely I've got to get more of them right this year!'
