An Antiques Roadshow guest has been left stunned to learn the real value of an old cigar which her grandsons had found in her attic.

Sunday's show saw the public take their beloved items to London's Crystal Palace, with one woman bringing along a whole host of Second World War memorabilia.

She presented medals to expert Mark Smith, which had once belonged to her late French father-in law, however they lacked certification and was disappointed to discover to be worth only £120.

The lady had also brought along an old cigar in a cardboard tube saying: 'As you can see it's addressed to Morris [her father in-law] from Mr Churchill'.
