roddy Posted February 25, 2005 at 02:51 AM Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 at 02:51 AM I would be very interested to hear how the audience and their questions will be vetted. Although, having said that, if it's not going to be broadcast live (or at all) in China, I guess it doesn't matter. Roddy PS There's potential here though. Antiques Roadshow at Panjiayuan.
