Featured items are appraised and valued before restoration and viewers learn the items' histories and why the owner would like them to be restored. The programme follows the restoration process and at the end the owners are given the opportunity to sell their antiques at auction.\n \nAir Post split-digitised DigiBeta rushes via serial digital interface into FORscene and local storage for in-house editing.
