BBC Antiques Roadshow's Christmas special leaves fans distracted by same thing

Antiques Roadshow viewers were distracted by the same thing during tonight's show.

Sunday's programme was the final episode before Christmas - and the iconic BBC programme aired a special show in honour of the festive season.

The programme treated viewers to unseen artefacts discovered at some of the most memorable roadshows from previous seasons.

The experts valued amazing treasures such as war hero Ernest Frederick Beale's Victoria Cross, which Mark Smith estimated would be worth around £250,000.

His great nephew was also in possession of his ancestor's locket, which was valued between £3,000 - £5,000 - but he said it would all be donated to the regimental museum.

Other items valued during tonight's show included a gothic necklace worth £3,000 and a wooden chair worth £4,000.

Fiona Bruce introduced each feature from The Vyne, which is a beautiful Tudor mansion in Hampshire.

Although the host introduced roadshows that were filmed during the summer months, the historic building was adorned in beautiful decorations and provided a suitable festive backdrop.

Fiona blended into her surroundings and wore a cosy orange jumper as she reflected on some of the show's best moments.

However, viewers following the show on Twitter were distracted by the outfit and pointed out how it reminded them of an iconic cartoon character.

MIdge said: "Fiona Bruce currently rocking the #Velma from #ScoobyDoo look currently on #bbc1"

Matt added a picture of the iconic cartoon character with the caption: "I knew I'd seen Fiona's jumper before."
