SideLines: Entertainment value

“Antiques Roadshow” is one of my favorite shows on TV. Whenever I watch, I can’t help wondering what it must be like to be on the show. I also wondered how someone gets on the show and what it costs to have something appraised.

Well, now I know.

I spoke with one of the appraisers, Mark Moran, on the phone recently to promote his show next week in Hinckley. He said the popular show can be “brutal” for the appraisers and a little “tense” for those with items to be appraised.
