Antiques Roadshow: Teletubbies sketches valued by expert<\/h3>\n

A guest on Antiques Roadshow was left speechless after discovering the value of her late husband’s original Teletubbies drawings.<\/p>\n

The woman, whose husband was Jonathan Hills, brought in the drawings for expert Mark Hill to examine at the Museum of the Home in London.<\/p>\n

Mark noted: “We are looking at drawings which look like the Teletubbies but there is a slight difference in some of them.”<\/p>\n

He asked her how she came to possess these original drawings, and she explained that her husband was asked to design characters for a children’s show, adding that it was his “legacy”.<\/p>\n

“Literally hundreds of millions of children saw his work and what we are looking at here is the very start of the Teletubbies,” Mark said.<\/p>\n

The woman revealed that the original characters looked more like bears and the show was initially called Teleteddies.<\/p>\n

When asked about the number of drawings she owned, she replied “about 80 of them”.<\/p>\n

Mark estimated that each drawing could fetch around \u00a31,000, with some even valued at a higher \u00a32,000.<\/p>\n

He revealed that the entire collection could be worth a staggering \u00a380,000.<\/p>\n

The lady was taken aback and responded: “Yes, that’s a lot. [Jonathan] would be so thrilled – that’s great.”<\/p>\n

The popular 90s children’s show has recently been revived for a new season on Netflix, featuring a fresh set and a well-known narrator.<\/p>\n

Tituss Burgess, known for his role in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, has joined the four main characters and the baby-faced sun in their futuristic Teletubbyland home as the new narrator of the show.<\/p>\n
