When did this show become woke?

The poor lady wanted an valued not a telling off for something she did not do. The BBC need to mention that that Africans sold other Africans during the trade.

The BBC and the Ronnie bloke knew what they was doing when they filming. They wanted to bully a member of the public.

If he didn't value it he should of refused and pass it over to another expert. The BBC need some bollocks, then again by 2030 there won't be a licence fee.

Half of the antique items he handles in his career are in a roundabout way linked to, made possible, by the slave trade, or the exploitation of children in mines, warehouses etc. Yet he is happy to take the shilling there. Silly man.

I have no idea who he is but he sounds like a trouble maker. You are right about his trading, he is fine with it if it when it suits him.

I did read an article that he has done this before on the show and he was willing to the help owner to return their item back to Africa.

My advice is this, if you got an item instead of going to the show just take it to an auction as a gamble. Things are only worth on what people are willing to pay.

Should guides and lecturers - for the pyramids, colleseum etc. - be dispensed with too?

It has been debunked many times.

The Pyramids were not built by slaves by very clever mathematicians who were looked after.
