Restoration Roadshow - Episode 3

Series devoted to saving treasured heirlooms from the scrapheap, restoring them to their former glory and maybe even making some money at auction. Against the stunning backdrop of Burghley House, Eric Knowles and his crack squad of restorers draw on all their skills to save yet more timeworn treasures brought along by members of the public. Pottery fanatic Roger Hawkins loses his heart to a 300-year-old Bellamine jug that's fallen out of favour with its owner, while paper conservator Louise Drover strives to make a 1947 fashion poster fit for the catwalk again. And furniture expert Rod Titian undertakes some fiendishly tricky Boule work in order to restore a Victorian chest to its former glory. But will their efforts meet with the approval of the owners? And when it comes to auction day, can the newly restored items steal the show and tempt bidders to part with their money?
