AN ANTIQUES Roadshow guest was left stunned after her husband's Teletubbies sketches were valued at an eye-watering \u00a380k. <\/p>\n
A woman presented drawings by her late husband, Jonathan Hills, to expert Mark Hill for examination at the Museum of the Home in London.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Expert Mark said: "We are looking at drawings which look like the Teletubbies but there is a slight difference in some of them."<\/p>\n
The guest said that her husband was asked to design characters for a children's show, and that's how she got hold of the sketches.<\/p>\n
Mark said: "Literally hundreds of millions of children saw his work and what we are looking at here is the very start of the Teletubbies."<\/p>\n
The woman explained that the original characters actually looked more like bears. <\/p>\n
The kids show was originally called Teleteddies.<\/p>\n When asked about the number of drawings she owned, she casually replied, "Oh, I have about 80 of them."<\/p>\n Mark estimated that each drawing could sell for approximately \u00a31,000, with some valued even higher at \u00a32,000.<\/p>\n He then shocked the guest when he revealed the whole collection could be worth a jaw-dropping \u00a380,000.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n She was lost for words at the valuation. <\/p>\n Unable to contain her shock, she exclaimed, "Wow, that's a lot! [Jonathan] would be absolutely thrilled. That's great!"<\/p>\n<\/picture>HIDDEN GEMS <\/span><\/p>\n
