A guest on was almost left speechless as his war medals received an extremely high valuation.
The popular BBC show was back for another episode on Sunday night (October 13) with presenter Fiona Bruce at the helm. In the episode, Fiona and her team of experts visited Ulster Folk Museum near Belfast where they discovered a number of historical goods brought in by members of the public.
During the show, a guest came on the programme with medals belonging to Captain Geoffrey Ingham who previously served in the war.
On duty to discover more about the war medals, expert Mark Smith was on hand to provide more details. Looking carefully at the medals he said the collection started in the early 1900s and to the last medal that was awarded at the end of World War II.
Mark said: "It's 45 years of active service at some point."
Geoffery was awarded a number of medals including a Russian Award and a WWII medal for the Normandy landings and an award for outstanding bravery.
But wanting to know more about the faded ribbons attached to the medals, the guest asked Mark: "Do you have any comments on renewing the ribbons on the medals?"
Leading into the valuation, Mark replied: Yes! Don't ever do it, they are gorgeous as they are, however, if you were the medal collector and you wanted to buy them with those faded ribbons you're gonna have to pay £10,000 for them."
Startled, the guest replied: "Really, that's interesting." He then added: "That's most interesting."
Viewers at home were also quite surprised with how much the medals were worth. Heading over to X, one fan said: "No way!"
Another viewer also said: "What a distinguished collection of medals. My grandfather was also at the Battle of Jutland on HMS Thunderer."
This isn't the first time historical medals have been given a high valuation on Antiques Roadshow.
In August, a guest brought in a medal that was awarded to a wartime pigeon who flew behind enemy lines in the 1940s to bring back crucial secrets. The special medal was valued at an astonishing £30,000, leaving the guests who brought them the item in, shock.
Antiques Roadshow is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
