The Artful Codgers is a British TV documentary that is about a couple in their 80s and their son. This family had made a lot of money selling fake antiquities. A figurine of King Tut's sister was made by their son in only three weeks. He also made a Gauguin faun, and a Romano-British boar hunt which actually was in the British Museum.

These forgeries were so professionally done that they passed for the real thing. The dad was a con man who looked innocent enough wearing his little pork-pie hat.
