Logo for Restoration Roadshow - Episode 9

Series devoted to saving treasured heirlooms from the scrapheap, restoring them to their former glory and maybe even making some money at auction. In wonderful Chatsworth House, paper conservator Louise Drover battles to restore a First World War trench map that’s definitely been in the wars. Meanwhile ceramics genius Roger Hawkins is forced to perform delicate surgery on some fragile 20th century figurines, while upholstery expert Rick Turner gets stuck in to a 19th century gilt chair that’s had the stuffing knocked out of it. But at the end of the day will their efforts be rewarded? Will the owners be happy with what they see? And if any items go off to auction will they steal the show and make a pretty penny?
