V&A Dundee 1
The roadshow is in Scotland at the V&A Dundee. Amongst the treasures brought along are a silver bowl found at a car boot sale, a Vivienne Westwood jacket and some rare SAS medals.
The roadshow comes from the V&A Dundee, on the east coast of Scotland. Fiona Bruce uncovers the fascinating story behind the design of this landmark museum and the treasures it houses.
Dundee produces an eclectic mix of finds, from an exotic embossed bowl bought for 拢3 at a car boot sale to an impressive Japanese vase with an emotional backstory. Saucy seaside postcards sit alongside Victorian paintings, while 20th-century finds include a Chopper bike and a Vivienne Westwood jacket.
And, militaria specialist Mark Smith is thrilled to see what appear to be rare SAS medals and insignia, but are they the real thing or just copies? The family story reveals all.
