BBC Antiques Roadshow guest questions valuation of rare silver item
Antiques Roadshow turned awkward on Sunday night as one guest appeared to suggest that his mystery object had been undervalued by an expert
During the show filmed at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, expert Gordon Foster was captivated by an unusual piece brought in for evaluation. The item owner then disclosed that it was actually a live fly box for angling, sharing he was immensely 'proud' of this keepsake - a present from his spouse to mark their 17-year celebratory silver wedding milestone.
