A Newsnight investigation into the growing trade in works of art produced, according to a Christie's expert, by 'master craftsmen' - in plastic?
Reporter Roger Cook follows the trail of some replicas of 19th century ivory carvings so good that even the experts have been fooled.
It took him from a factory on the south coast of England, to auction rooms and antique shops around Europe. It led to some surprising discoveries - and to three cracked ribs.

This week: Mother's Ruin
Too much alcohol doesn't do anyone any good. But women come off even worse than men: they get drunk on less, they are more likely to contract liver disease, they can damage an unborn child -with serious risks for its future mental development.
Yet women in Britain now drink more than ever before and start earlier. Supermarkets sell drink along with breakfast cereal, and women's magazines are saturated with advertisements which some claim glamorise alcohol. Certainly, sales have doubled in less than ten years ...
Man Alive meets women with drinking problems, and asks doctors and researchers if more should be done to warn people of the risks they run.
