Is Bunny Campione, one of the experts on Antiques Roadshow, the daughter of film actor Stewart Granger or is this just an urban myth?

[Gormless]

Not a clue, but isn't Fiona Bruce in tight black trousers a bit tasty?

[puddicat]

is she the woman who talks about teddies as in bears!!

[Mr Veritas]

I think it must be an Urban Myth(sorry)
Stewart Granger only had 3 children.
Tracy Granger,Mother was Jean Simmons.
Jamie and Lindsey,Mother was Elspeth March.
Of course if she washis illigitimate child we probably wouldn't wouldn't know.
Bunny has it seems an "awful" first name (she hates it so) she has offered a prize to anyone on the Antiques Roadshow team who can find out what it is.
A small piece of trivia about Bunny.
She is the Great Grand Daughter of Luigi Lablache,one of the greatest of 19th Century Operatic Basses.
He even gave singing lessons to Queen Victoria.

Going by her exotic ancestry I would imagine she has an equallexotic first name?

One of the experts, Paul Atterbury's mother, Audrey Atterbury was a puppeteer on Andy Pandy in the 1950's. It has been said that as a boy, Paul was the inspiration for the Andy Pandy puppet.

She was on the couch in Breakfast tv yeserday morning advertising the new Antiques show with John Bly.
She said in the interview that her Dad was a flying instructor and in fact her son is a pilot for BA.

Stewart Grainger (born James Stewart) was also the great great grandson of Luigi Lablache there fore they are....bliney hang on.....I can do this... I think 4th cousins at a guess withour knowing the exact Family tree.

[dot.hawkes]

Stewart Graingers granddad was the actor Luigi Lablache, the grandson of the opera singer mentioned above, now where bunny's line is i am not sure, i shall try to find out

[stompe]

Her names Bunny because she has a Rabbit!

[dot.hawkes]

Ok Stewart Grainger's mother was Frederica Lablache and her father was Luigi Lablache, Luigi's father was i think Frederick son of the opera singer Luigi, anyone have any ancestry on bunny Campione? I think that name Campione came up in what I;'ve just been reading about Luigi actually

Bunny's mother was Stewart Grainger's sister.

[duophonic]

Bunny is the neice of Stewart Granger, her mother and him are sister and brother.
