Series 46: 17. Swanage Pier and Seafront, Dorset 3

The roadshow pays a final visit to Swanage Pier in Dorset, where treasures include shipwreck finds, a jewel-encrusted bird, an early folding bike and a pair of aviator boots with a link to a tragic wartime mission.\n\nRonnie Archer-Morgan is moved by a powerful sculpture from South Africa, while Serhat Ahmet celebrates trailblazing potter Hannah Barlow when he sees a rare example of her artistry in ceramics. Siobhan Tyrrell sees items of motoring memorabilia that belonged to pioneering female driver Ivy Cummings, while Geoffrey Munn is dazzled by a jewel-encrusted brooch in the shape of a mysterious bird.\n\nMark Hill admires the engineering that has gone into a homemade folding bike, while Mark Smith is moved to tears by a pair of aviator’s boots that have a link to a tragic wartime mission that involved his late father. Marc Allum meets members of a local diving group and is intrigued to see a collection of First World War keepsakes salvaged from the wreck of the Kyrra, sunk by a German U-boat in May 1918, while Justin Croft sees a thrilling first-hand survivor’s account of a much earlier shipwreck.\n\nFiona finds out about the history of the Swanage lifeboat and the wider history of the RNLI, which is marking its bicentenary, and tries to put three ancient fossils in order of age in a quirky geological challenge set by Marc Allum.
