'Fake or Fortune?' preview - is this by Degas?
September 7 2012
Picture: BBC
Here is a little clip about the first programme of the new series of 'Fake or Fortune?'. The programme is all about a painting which may, or may not, be by Edgar Degas. The programme will be broadcast next Sunday, 16th September, at 6.30pm on BBC1. Viewing is of course compulsory for all AHN readers.
The two subsequent episodes, on paintings which may or may not be by Turner and Van Dyck, will be shown at 7pm. Apparently there's some drama on the 16th which is taking priority. Clearly, BBC schedulers don't recognise TV gold when they see it.
Ps, the picture we are standing in front of is by Titian. So we could be in a Degas and Titian sandwich.
