First transmitted in 1958, the Victoria & Albert Museum challenges a panel of experts to identify a series of unusual objects. The programme is chaired by Glyn Daniel, Fellow of St John's College, Cambridge. The experts are Thomas Bodkin (Professor of Fine Arts at Birmingham University), Hugh Short F.S.A (Curator of Salisbury South Wilts, and Blackmore Museum) and Sir Mortimer Wheeler (Secretary of the British Academy).
