Antiques Roadshow - featuring the APTS Archive

Fiona Bruce introduces an edition of the Antiques Roadshow, (recorded on 20th July 2014) from The Roundhouse in Derby. This building was the world's first and oldest surviving railway roundhouse, where dozens of trains were once serviced. Entertaining items from this edition included a pair of Clarice Cliff bookends won in a pub darts tournament, a silver christening cup with a surprising history and a portrait by a renowned British artist - painted on a fragment of a pillowcase in a prisoner-of-war camp. In addition to these fascinating objects our very own Archivist was able to take along some of the priceless items contained within its growing collection. Although not featured here many more items were taken along and discussed with John Baddeley prior to the recording taking place. Transmitted: 14th October 2014.
