BBC One's ever popular Sunday evening programme Antiques Roadshow will be filming for its 32nd series at Somerleyton Hall, on Thursday, September, 10.
It will be presenter Fiona Bruce's second year with the roadshow and she said: “Presenting the Antiques Roadshow is, for me, one of those rare and very lucky coincidences in television 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. The roadshow isn't just about antiques - it's history, beauty and drama all wrapped up in one.”
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 take along family heirlooms, household treasures and car boot bargains for inspection by the experts.
The doors open at 9.30 am and close at 4.30pm.
People with large pieces of furniture or other big items can send details and photographs of their objects to: Antiques Roadshow, BBC, Whiteladies Road, Bristol BS8 2LR or email: antiques.roadshow@bbc.co.uk. It may be possible to arrange to look at the item in advance and organise transportation to the venue.
