FAKE or Fortune fans have blasted the BBC for editing out Fiona Bruce's best blunders on iPlayer episodes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Eagle-eyed viewers of the beloved show have accused the show of fakery and complained about iPlayer not uploading some of the series' most embarrassing gaffes.\u00a0<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The BBC is under fire from its viewers after they noticed that some of the times presenters Fiona Bruce and Philip Mould wrongly believed a forgery was genuine art had been taken off their streaming platform.<\/p>\n

The programme follows Fiona and Phillip as they work with art collectors to establish whether their pieces are genuine or fake.<\/p>\n

Fake and Fortune has been a ratings hit for the broadcaster, but several mistakes have been incorporated into episodes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One of the most watched episodes, which contained an infamous blunder and has not been uploaded, involved the presenters authenticating a Monet painting, which was later confirmed as a fake.<\/p>\n

During the 2011 episode, the team fought to have the Bords de la Seine \u00e0 Argenteuil authenticated as an original Claude Monet, only to be rejected by the Wildenstein Institute.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another highly rated blunder that has been removed saw Fiona and the team track down what was thought to be an original Winston Churchill oil canvas painting in a 2015 episode, only to unveil that it was also a fake.<\/p>\n

The painting portrayed a picturesque scene of a mediaeval village in southern France, which Charles Henty owned.<\/p>\n

It was discovered in the coal hole of Charles' family home in London, where Churchill's daughter, Sarah, had once been owned.<\/p>\n

The painting was dated back to the 1960s and was painted in Churchill's style but had never been authenticated before<\/p>\n

On the show, they tracked down the village of St-Paul-de-Vence, with Fiona and art expert Mould trying in vain to authenticate the sunny image.<\/p>\n

Eventually, collector David Coombes stated that he did not think Winston Churchill painted the picture.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Five years after the episode, the British artist Paul Rafferty uncovered a 'smoking gun' in the form of a thumbnail photograph of Churchill painting the scene.<\/p>\n

This confirmation by Paul led to the photo becoming authenticated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A year before that episode aired, a Churchill painting was sold at an eye-whopping\u00a0 \u00a31.8 million at Sotheby's auction.<\/p>\n

Also removed\u00a0 from iPlayer is Fiona and Phillip's celebration of a dawb painted 'mainly by Lucian Freud.'\u00a0<\/p>\n

During that episode, which aired in 2016, Fiona and Phillip strived to authenticate the mawkish character as a Freud original despite the artist unquestionably denying he ever painted it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
