Antiques Roadshow fans were left ‘screaming’ at their screens after an expert seemingly ‘ruined’ a guest’s rare scrapbook.
In a repeat programme aired on Sunday night, gobsmacked viewers were quick to spot the mishap made by expert Fuchsia Voremberg.
A woman took to the ground of Salisbury Cathedral to find out the worth of her great-great uncle’s book from when he was in the army.
The delicate item was made from printed scraps and ferns from the 1890s which her family member sent back home from India, the woman revealed.
She said: ‘He sent it as a Christmas present to his mother and it was passed down to me through the family.’

Fuchsia said: ‘This is an interesting example of a Victorian phenomena called Fernmania or Pteridomania.
‘They collected them, they painted them, they printed with them and in this case, they pressed them and put them in this beautiful book.’
As Fuchsia flicked through the book, fans noticed one of the protected layers of paper folded back.
Shocked viewers flooded X in fury and wrote: ‘Anyone else just see her fold a page down when she turned to look at another page?’,
‘I gasped’, ‘Yes and it made me think ffs!’,
‘Yes, very upsetting. Mind you, I thought she should just have closed the book as the wind was blowing everything about’,
‘Yes, we were screaming at the telly!’
Fuchsia added: ‘What’s really nice about this example is that it shows this young man, he’s a long way from home and he’s sending a little piece of the place that he’s seeing.

‘The very poignant aspect of it is that ferns are associated with mourning so in some way he was creating a mourning album.’
She continued: ‘It’s a lovely meeting point between India and this British chap who is out there. I’d give it a val
ue of £200.’
The woman responded: ‘Oh wonderful, fantastic! Not that it’s for sale.’
