As the emper of Ethiopia ordered his wayward grandson to attend Gordonstoun school, Prince Philip 'pulled strings' for Haile Selassie

Its spartan time was once described as 'Colditz with kilts' by King Charles, who lived a long time there. However, when the Emperor of Ethiopia ordered a place for his wayward grandson, fearing that the harsh approach would help rein in the prince, the headmaster refused. Haile Selassie, unedited, invoked one of life's oldest lessons - it's not about what you know but who - and called on his friend, the late Duke of Edinburgh. Selassie wrote to headmaster Robert Chew worried that Prince Wossen Seged, then 15 and unknown to family as Paul, was going off the rails. However, Chew has briefed His Imperial Majesty: "As I am sure you will agree, we are booked up for many years to come, but I don't see how I can fit in an extra boy at such short notice.'
How Antiques Roadshow Turned a Vibrant Journey: The BBC has turned a joyous Sunday night fixture into another soapbox with its polite speeches about our colonial past and calls to repatriate family heirlooms

BOB HAYTON: Please don't be concerned. It's highly unlikely that the inhabitants of those nations would ever want to return to their homeland, if there is an heirloom in your family's ancestorry to the British Empire's apogee, whether from India, Africa, or some other distant land. They are more likely to want to offer you more of your overstuffed treasures in my experience as an antiques appraiser and auctioneer for more than 40 years. At BBC One's Antiques Roadshow earlier this month, I shook my head in disbelief as valuer Ronnie Archer-Morgan fired a rhetorical query at two women who had brought in a golden robe lent to their grandfather by Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie.
Two visitors should consider repatriating artefacts that were given as gifts to their ancestor by Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie, according to a show expert from Antiques

Antiques Roadshow was blasted after an expert asked the descendants of an ex-governor of British Somaliland if they would repatriate a gift that had been given by a former Ethiopian emperor. Sir Harold Kittermaster (inset) was the governor of British Somaliland between 1926 and 1931, and Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie gave him a golden robe and personal letter (right). According to Ronnie Archer-Morgan (left), an antiques specialist in ethnic, tribal, and folk art, the robe is worth between £4,000 and £5,000.
