FIONA Bruce has left some Antiques Roadshow viewers so annoyed they 'switched off'.

Fiona, 59, has presented the BBC One show since 2008 but one of her regular segments has left some viewers underwhelmed to say the least.

Each episode of Antiques Roadshow sees Fiona take part in a challenge called Basic, Better, Best.

She is presented with three items and has to work out which one it the most expensive down to lowest in value after being given a series of clues from one of the show's experts.

On Sunday while at Wollaton Hall, Fiona was presented with three Roman cameos which includes a ring, a design on a shell, and a warrior carved onto a piece of opal.

But as Fiona tried to figure out which was which, one viewer at home wrote: "This segment makes me switch off. I couldn’t care less which one the host drools over. "

Another added: "It's the FiFi MeMe segment. Bog time."

A third person shared a gif of a crowd of people leaving a room and tweeted: "Fiona: Time for my favourite part of the show ... everyone else at home:..."

Elsewhere in the episode, a guest was left gobsmacked by a £250,000 valuation - but there was a twist.

A man brought in an African tribal statue, and expert Ronnie Archer-Morgan detailed its origins.

He then said said: "One of these made, I think a few years ago, £250,000."

The crowd behind the men could be heard audibly gasping at the high figure, while one said "Wow".

But Ronnie soon brought everyone back down to earth when he added immediately after: "But unfortnately, this one is a very fine copy.

"It's slightly the wrong size and this was probably made in 1980. One like this is probably worth about £150. Unfortunately not the quarter of a million that one of them actually made."

Antiques Roadshow airs Sundays at 8pm on BBC One.
