    If I EVER came across a painting of someone's MOTHER, I wouldn't even hesitate to GIVE that person the painting, no matter the value. Smfh. I can't believe she's going to wait until she dies to hand it over to them. Smh The son of the woman in the painting will be long gone by that time, so he should get the painting 100%. We only have one damn life and I'm sure it would make that man's whole world to have that painting. It would make my world just to be able to give the painting to him too. This was very sad to me

    I will probably be pilloried for this but it is how I feel. I have watched the AR since its inception and this afternoon watched all three parts of this mini series. It reminds me of the England I grew up in, went to school in and started work in. All three episodes are full of English ( Scots and Welsh too) people who all look english, speak english correctly and behave like English people. This was my world and I am very sad to say we seem to be rapidly discarding this world for something our politicians have dreamt up and told us must now be the normal. How we live now will never be the normal for me and I suspect there are still many who feel as I do.

    The story at 31:50 of the "Betty Clover" painting is very heartwarming. I find the thoughtfulness of the current owners to respect the painted woman's family's quite honorable. In my opinion, this is one of the best examples for keeping tradition alive beyond the short stay on this mortal plane. A kind reminder that there is more to the British people than the unsavory "Blonde Buffoon" playing with economy and politics like they would do in a personal monopoly game.

    The. cup was originally Greek in design specifically for the Spartans so that every soldier received the same amount of wine. They led very austere lives and this was their luxury before a battle and again after in celebration that they made it back. They continue to be produced but not for the Greek army!

    Why on earth would anyone put such a gorgeous item (the cigarette box) - worth so much - in a Safe Deposit Box - where nobody would ever see it again!!! 😮😮😮 What a WASTE…
