The Genuine Article

on BBC Two England

1: Guns and Militaria Presented by John FitzMaurice Mills
Never underrate the trouble a faker will go to if he wants to deceive you. JOHN FITZMAURICE MILLS demonstrates how many skilful steps are needed to convert an innocent gun kit into an apparently valuable weapon. And around the edges of the gun-collecting world, the fiddlers are making their own kind of killiiig-with fake bayonets, helmets and medals. In this new. six-part series, John FitzMaurice Mills shows how to recognise the faker's hand in gold and silver, sculpture, coins, books and furniture, and asks: when does the genuine article cease to be genuine?
