CHESHIRE has been chosen for the filming of the 33rd series of The Antiques Roadshow.
On Thursday, May 20, the BBC show will come to Tatton Park in Knutsford. The doors open at 9.30am and close at 4.30pm. Entry is free.
This will be presenter Fiona Bruce’s third year with the programme.
She said: “PresentingŠ the Antiques Roadshow is, for me, one of those rare and very lucky coincidences in televisionŠ when you get to work on a show that you already love to watch.
“Exploring the human story behind every object is what makes Antiques Roadshow so fascinating.
“And everyone loves the agony and ecstasy of the 'what's it worth? moment.”
Some of Britain’s leading antiques and fine arts specialists will be on hand to offer free advice and valuations to visitors, who are invited to raid their attics and bring along their family heirlooms and household treasures for inspection by the experts.
People with large items can send details and photographs of their objects to: Antiques Roadshow, BBC, Whiteladies Road, Bristol BS8 2LR or e-mail them to antiques.roadshow@bbc.co.uk.
It may be possible to arrange to look at the item in advance and organise transportation.
