Going for a Song

on BBC One London

Customers and connoisseurs explore the world of antiques with Max Robertson
Resident connoisseur, Arthur Negus
Guest connoisseur, Tim Clarke
Customers, Lord Arran and Fabia Drake

Nobody hates a TV show like the knockers hate "Going for a Song." The knockers are the fly boys of the antique trade. Armed with a canny skill for smelling out valuables and a smooth line in chat, they persuade the mugs of this world to part with their family heirlooms for a fiver. But in the last four years, "Going for a Song" has transformed us into a nation of experts able to value that old oak sideboard or tarnished silver candlesticks at the drop of the name Arthur Negus, who is, of course, the resident expert.
