The great late Len Hancock was Our Best Man at Our Wedding sadly My Lovely & Very much adored Husband passed away 7 yrs after the Wedding... Every visit we made to Len & Slow the house Len very proudly took this video out for us all to watch, again & again & again you understand he was very proud of his antiques road show debut, Rightly so he was a lovely man, may they both be having Highland Jollies where ever they rest their wings ,_💔💕💔💕💔
I fell in love with Scotland years ago while visiting there. When covic situation is a little better I'll be back in there. I plan to hike both West Highland Way and Great Glen Way from Glasgow to Inverness in 2023 or 2024.
Most of us are quite familiar with roman numerals and learnt the numbers from one to twelve. Without your looking to double check, see if you can answer correctly from memory alone: How is the number four written using Roman numerals. When you're ready look closer at the clock and see if you find what you expected. Most of you may be mildly surprised.
Thank you! I am pleased that you say that as my grandfather who bought it, and since then all our family have always refered to it 'The Italian Cabinet'.
This was a challenge to watch as I had just rewatched the clip where Shashi Tharoor describes how GB drained INDIA of just about every drop of everything they had.
Let me cite National Trust's website: "We're often led to believe that wearing gloves is essential when handling precious books. In fact, it poses a serious risk of damaging them. Our experts explain why, and share their tips for handling books safely.Even clean and well-fitting gloves can interfere with our extraordinarily sophisticated sense of touch. Individual edges of pages that can be felt by the naked fingertip tend to clump together when we use gloves.When you look at them up close, gloves are not as smooth or gentle as you might think. Cotton gloves are made of tangled fibres that can easily catch on small tears or rough areas in weak and degraded paper and leather.They also hold onto dust and grit, making them abrasive. All of these factors mean gloves can damage these delicate and precious pages."
Thanks for all the great vintage British antiques roadshow

Greetings from Toronto Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

I fell in love with Scotland thru John Buchan's writings. How fun to find the show in Peebles, a place I dream of experiencing for a month at least.
I live in the Borders Love it

The lady reminds me of ' miss Jones' from ' rising damp '
I love that place they called Scotland
The place or the people?
The cabinet a Bambocci at 36.00 is absolutely typically Genoese late 16th century. Nothing Spanish or Portuguese about it at all.

@ 24:19 ''Sam-Your-Eye.'' First prize for British butchery of a Japanese word. Good grief!

I recently took a DNA test and found that I am 49% Scottish. I had no idea before that.
With the 1600s book...where are your gloves?!?!

33:35 - Sure, they just gifted the clock to her father who 'saved' it from a fire🙄
