Production teams behind the BBC Antiques Roadshow television programme have been given rules over how they deal with colonial items. Those involved in the popular show have been told they must be "sensitive" when handling such items.
A new briefing document has been issued to those making the show. It spells out how any such items which are brought in to be valued or which will appear on the programme must be dealt with.
The document, produced by the BBC, has been sent to production companies tendering to make the show. It tells them they must ensure sensitivity, reports Birmingham Live.
