Antiques Roadshow guest was amazed at the value of a Hollywood movie trailer he bought from a car boot shop for just £5

An Antiques Roadshow guest has been stunned by the incredible value of a Hollywood film score after scooping it up at a car boot sale for just £5.

Sunday’s episode saw the series head to Nottingham’s Wollaton Hall, which happens to double as Wayne Manor in Christopher Nolan’s popular Batman trilogy.

The score, which the guest discovered for sale in a “rather dirty volume”, contains handwritten notes by the famous American composer Bernard Herrmann.

Bernard is best known for his work in television and film, having created the theme music for Alfred Hitchcock’s film Psycho (1960), Orson Welles’ Citizen Kane (1941), and the television series The Twilight Zone.

Explaining how he found the piece, the man said: “There was a man in front of me who offered it £5 but he didn’t want it so I gladly took it.”

Adding: “I had a quick look at what was in the box and it certainly looked worth it for £5.”

While expert Justin Croft revealed that the score was “Bernard’s own version” of the 1952 drama The Snows of Kilimanjaro, which starred Hollywood star Gregory Peck.

Telling the guest: “What I like about it is that there are a lot of annotations and it gets us closer to matching the score to the film.”

Turning to the evaluation, he said: “I think it has some value.” It may not be the most important score of his film, and it’s not the film everyone knows him by.

“To have an original version of it with his corrections and comments at the time they fit the film together, I think that’s important.”

Before shocking the guest by announcing that it will fetch between £800 and £1,000 at auction.

“Not bad for £5,” the man said cheerfully.

Throughout his career, Bernard (1911-1975) received an Academy Award in 1941 for his scores for The Devil and Daniel Webster and 1976’s Taxi Driver, which he received posthumously after his death a year earlier.

This comes after another guest was stunned when she learned the true value of old cigars that her grandchildren found in her attic.

The series was filmed from Crystal Palace in London, where a woman brought a whole collection of World War II memorabilia.

She presented medals to expert Mark Smith, which had previously belonged to her late French father-in-law, but they lacked a certificate and she was disappointed to find they were worth only £120.

The lady had also brought with her an old cigar in a cardboard tube, saying: “You see, it is addressed to Maurice (her father-in-law) from Mr. Churchill.”

Among the boxes, her grandchildren also discovered a newspaper clipping reporting on former Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s meeting with French soldiers, which read: “Churchill invited champagne and gave each member of the delegation one of his famous cigars.”

The memorabilia lover was amazed and said: “You already have one of Churchill’s cigars, isn’t that wonderful!”

Before giving the piece a £2,000 valuation, its owner was left stunned wondering: “No, really?”

“(Churchill) cigars are very special and people just want to own one of them,” Mark said.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965) was twice Prime Minister of Britain and led the country through World War II and became synonymous with cigar smoking.

“I drink too much,” he once said. I sleep a little, and smoke one cigar after another. That’s why I’m two hundred percent.
