The BBC’s Antiques Roadshow is reviewing its approach to ivory after campaigners called for a ban of ivory objects on screen, writes Alex Capon.
In 2014, the producers of the Antiques Roadshow said it would show fewer ivory objects and, since that time, only a handful of ivory objects have been featured on the show.
The debate was reignited by Virginia McKenna, however, who wrote in the Radio Times that ivory should no longer be featured on the Roadshow.
