Antiques Roadshow viewers spot iconic comedy character’s double during BBC show

ANTIQUES Roadshow viewers have spotted an iconic comedy character's double during the show.

The hit BBC One programme was back on air tonight with Fiona Bruce at the helm.

It also returned to its normal time slot of 8pm after last week's scheduling shake-up.

The show came from the beautiful Stonor Park in Oxfordshire.

Viewers watched as guests brought items such as a rare group of Indian medals and Florence Nightingale’s toolkit

They also heard the story of a remarkable female pilot from the Second World War.

However, fans spotted a lookalike character from the iconic British comedy Steptoe and Son.

They were convinced glass expert Andy McConnell was the image of Wilfrid Brambell, who played Albert Steptoe.

Andy, who is a regular fixture on the show, joined Fiona with historic glassware.

BBC viewers took to social media to share GIFs and memes of Steptoe and Son in reference to Andy.

One fan said: "I love Andy's enthusiasm when it comes to all things glass."

A second said: "Andy is daft as a brush."

Antiques Roadshow continues on BBC One and iPlayer.
