Expert Will Farmer explained how one guests 'face dropped' when he learned his expensive glass bottle was worth nothing
BBC Antiques Roadshow experts usually leave people delighted after discovering their item is worth an eye-watering amount of cash. However, it's not always the case for everyone.

He said, 'I want to check the date of it' and I said, 'Are you a collector, have you inherited it? where is it from?' And he said he'd bought it from an antique shop so I knew I had to tread carefully."
However Will heartbreakingly had to reveal that what the man believed was worth a fair buck, was in fact nothing more than a plain green glass bottle - and worse still, worth no value at all. Join the Daily Record's WhatsApp community here and get the latest news sent straight to your messages.
