The magic of the Antiques Roadshow was washed away for me when Michael Aspel was presenting. I did a few bits for the BBC many years ago and was present when they came to where I live. Michael spent nearly 50 minutes in every hour outside smoking. He’d come in, they’d talk to him for a few minutes, then he’d do a two…

For those rust holes, get some roofing felt, heat up one side and stick it down. Nice temporary watertight patch you can peel off when you choose to.

Really sorry to hear that.

I think I’d have to stop at the turntable,.......................... maybe.

How do you arrest someone for resisting arrest!?

It’s not rude. ‘Got away with it’, they didn’t have to and they could of said no.

At first we’d always get, ‘but the foam is the best part’, to which we’d reply, ‘we…
