And stay tuned, we’ll be revealing the historic location we’ve selected very soon.”

The Antiques Roadshow has been nominated for 15 Emmy Awards. It really is a show worth catching when you have a spare moment. Do start rummaging through your attic. There will be approximately 3,000 ticketed households who will receive free valuations for their collectibles and antiques. You may bring up to 2 items to be appraised. You never know the fortune you might be sitting on. Oh, and hey, if you do hit the jackpot and wish to upsize your living quarters you know who to call. 😉
