I think most people who go to Antiques Roadshow do so in the hope of being told that their old bit of tat is actually worth a fortune. You've only got to look at the faces of those who are told "Well, it's nice, but it's not worth anything apart from the sentimental value". Mind you, if you find you have got an Old Master (apart from 'im indoors) could you afford to keep it? It's not just the insurance, it's the security the insurance companies insist on.
