Some Official Arts Society Feedback
The Chair - 2000 Years of Sitting Down
Excellent
Praise from members for presentational style, with enjoyable anecdotes.
The Antiques Roadshow: Behind the Scenes & the Great Discoveries
Outstanding
He gave us a very interesting lecture on The Antiques Roadshow which is a programme which most people present would have seen over the years, and which talk gave us an interesting insight to what goes on behind the scenes as well as talking about discoveries found on the programme. He was also very willing not only to answer questions after the lecture, but also to engage with members present both before as well as after the lecture, which felt more like we were all present at a live lecture, which most members do miss these days.
