I don't suppose we have one lurking on this site by any chance?
A few weeks ago I saw an old episode on BBC entertainment. Like an idiot I did not have the sense to make a not of which episode it was :(
All I remember is that it was filmed outdoors on a lawn, and they showed two dressers, one standing on top of the other. The lower one they said might be Norwegian and it had a painted scene of figures on it. I am calling it a dresser but that might be the wrong name, low cupboard thing with double doors and very short legs, feet really.
So, anyone have the full set and want to go through them for me? Season 33ish I think +/- 1 maybe. You would think that there should be an online index of items...

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Thanks both of you, that is all very helpful.
No, that Norwegian one is not the right one - but it is lovely!
Perhaps I will just have to lookout for reruns of the AR and see if I can catch it again :roll:
