“But it is a good story, and there’s quite a substantial diamond here in the middle and a perfectly nice pearl,” before Geoffrey moved onto the all-important valuation.
“I think I’m going to value it at something like £7,000 to £10,000,” Geoffrey revealed, leaving the guest lost for words.

The guest concluded she would wear the brooch whilst sitting in front of the TV watching Antiques Roadshow.
Antiques Roadshow airs Sundays at 8pm on BBC One.
