Guest Speaker

With nearly 35 years' experience as a forgeries expert, Curtis Dowling is highly respected as a leading international authority in his field. Investors, museums and private art companies hire him to confirm both the authenticity of art and antiques they are considering buying, and to purchase key pieces for their collection, or investigate lost or stolen art & antiques.


Curtis has worked alongside Duncan Bannatyne for BBC2's primetime series 'Beat the Bank'. As the antiques and art expert, Curtis was in the race to turn a healthy profit on Duncan's money. He has also appeared as an expert on BBC1's hit daytime show 'Cash in the Attic' and 'Cash in the Celebrity attic' and two series of presenting the ever-popular BBC1 'Put Your Money Where Your Mouth is'before turning his attentions on TV back to his true field of expertise fakes, scams and forgeries with appearances on 'Rogue Traders' and 'Fake Britain' and Channel 5's 'Live From Studio 5'.
