Dig out your treasures: BBC's Antiques Roadshow comes to Newby Hall
BBC One's Antiques Roadshow has confirmed it will be returning this summer, with Newby Hall named as one of its 8 locations.
Viewers are being asked to contact the Roadshow team with any hidden gems and stories to tell. A form is available on their website where owners can fill out details of their objects.
For the first time in the show's history, the series will be filmed on a closed set with only a small audience invited. This is to ensure the safety of guests, the production team and the wider public.

Robert Murphy, BBC Studios Series Editor said:
Some of the Roadshow's most remarkable finds have included a hand written document signed by Elizabeth I and a ring containing a lock of author Charlotte Bronte's hair.
