The North West Area of The Arts Society recently held a special interest day at Clitheroe Golf Club, with guest speaker Marc Allum, freelance art and antiques journalist and broadcaster. He is well known for his appearances on television and radio, and perhaps most recognisable for his role on Antiques Roadshow. Some may also recall his cat, “Minou”, who appears in the programme’s opening credits, almost knocking over a vase.
