Will added: “To date, we only know of about 10 or 12 of these panels that have actually surfaced and that’s what makes it very interesting to collectors today. He then asked: “Do you remember what you paid at the time?”

Upon hearing this figure, the guest screeched: “You’re”, before finishing off his sentence more calmly: “Joking.”
