On getting emotional: "I cry at the Antiques Roadshow. You know, when someone comes in with some family heirloom and it’s often the last bit in the programme and the expert says, ‘Do you know how much this is worth? It’s valued at X thousand pounds.’ And they say, ‘I’m amazed it’s worth that much, but it means more to me than money.’ Incredibly emotional.”

there is a bog palpable difference between the road shows in europe and the ones in the states. in the states, it's purely about money. you can see it. people start jumping for joy as if they have hit the lottery. so what if the urn is holding grandpa's ashes from the lincoln administration. in europe, people bring their really nice old antiques and are pleasantly surprised they are worth so much, but it's for keeps.
