Fiona Bruce and the team of Antique Roadshow experts are headed for Crathes Castle this summer, the BBC has revealed.
The show will be filming at the castle near Banchory on July 1, allowing locals the chance to bring along their antiques for free advice and valuations.
Last year, the programme celebrated four decades on the road with some truly amazing finds.
Presenter Fiona Bruce said: “Can this year be even better than our last? We’ll have to go some way to top the most valuable Faberge ever seen on the programme, a correction to Darwin’s theory of evolution by the great man himself and one of the best collections of show business memorabilia ever seen by our experts.
“But I have every confidence we’ll do it and the thousands of people that come along to see us will pull some extraordinary things out of their bags/trolleys/bits of newspaper/suitcases/boats – and one year even out of a cart led by a dog.
“I can’t wait.”
Robert Murphy, series producer of Antiques Roadshow, said: “We are looking forward to welcoming thousands of visitors when we bring Antiques Roadshow to Crathes Castle.
“It’s over ten years since the Roadshow was last in Aberdeen so we’re looking forward to a bumper turnout and can’t wait see what kind of cherished objects emerge from the attic.
“It’s a great free, family day out and you can see how we make one of BBC One’s most popular programmes.
“Our team of experts are on hand to help visitors discover the hidden history of their objects – you never know, it might just be your item that turns out to be something very special and potentially very valuable.”
Doors open at 9.30am and close at 4.30pm. Entry to the show is free, everyone is welcome, and no tickets or pre-registration is required.
Visitors are welcome to just turn up on the day.
