It Was Brilliant
This was a total treat from start to finish, it wasn't perfect but very nearly so! The split between the history and provenance was mostly right, but a bit more about it past through sales and ownership was sometimes missing.
The high points were the insights Bendor gave to camera, often with humour and a curtain quirkiness of reference of unknown detail that about the painter or the history of the place. His personal opinions were great, as we all hold opinions and a gut reaction to something often reflects the viewers.
Ultimately is was the art and the programme chose well it's investigations. Simon Gillespie was a star as were Jackie and Emma
I'm giving this a 10 outta 10 for shear entertainment, this is the BBC at its very best.
