The first episode features a 1916 painting of a garden bought for £140 but if correctly attributed to Sir Winston Churchill could be worth up to £500,000 - as ever, provenance is everything. In episode two the stakes are even higher as two paintings turn up that the owners believe to have been the work of Pierre-Auguste Renoir.
Forensic investigation is required here but there is also an exciting reveal as a conservator discovers a label hidden underneath the frame. The human stories and hopes of the current owners, as ever with this show, add layers of poignancy to the layers of paint being examined and evaluated.
