The roadshow is at Firstsite contemporary art gallery in Colchester, Essex, where treasures include a wartime wedding dress, an instruction book on the ancient art of paper folding and a copper dish twice rescued from a skip. Cristian Beadman is charmed by one of the finest singing bird automatons he’s ever seen, while a colourful figurine from the Roaring Twenties prompts Will Farmer to reminisce about once owning the same piece. A silver trophy collection revealing the early history of aviation, including the first airmail service, enthuses Gordon Foster, and Frances Christie is delighted to see a fully restored poster by celebrated war illustrator Helen McKie. Serhat Ahmet meets an obsessive collector of Wedgwood Fairyland Lustre ceramics, whose wife remains unconvinced, and Mark Smith brings to life the Battle of Britain with a collection of medals belonging to a brave airman who fought alongside a celebrated war hero.
