The roadshow comes from Ebrington Square in Derry/Londonderry, where highlights include a Celtic stone head, rare Belleek vases found in a charity shop and a drawing by Muhammad Ali. Marc Allum is thrilled to see an album of 19th-century photos of ancient Egyptian landmarks, while Ronnie Archer Morgan is intrigued by a Celtic stone head that could be several thousand years old. Mark Hill gets the chance to see a child’s model Austin Pathfinder pedal car, and Fiona gets a history lesson about Northern Irish motor racing when she finds out about the Crosslé car company. Lennox Cato helps a visitor unravel the mystery purpose for an unusual brass stand, while John Sandon is stunned to discover a pair of rare Belleek vases bought for just a few pounds from a charity shop. Raj Bisram, meanwhile, is touched to see a drawing done on a napkin by boxer Muhammad Ali towards the end of his life, given as a souvenir to an Irishman who helped him at a restaurant.
