Last week Dents played host to the crew from BBC’s Flog it! antiques programme. The art of glove making was filmed for a segment in the popular day time television show. Flog it! regularly gets an audience of 2 million viewers each weekday – around 25% of the television audience.   

The film crew spent several hours filming both in our museum and in our factory. Deborah Moore, Dents' Creative Director, showed presenter Paul Martin the glove making process for a pair of Peccary leather gloves, from the cutting of the leather, right the way through to the final stage of ironing the gloves.

After the filming Paul took time out to chat to the staff and sign autographs.

The program is due to air on BBC2 early in the summer. We'll let you know the exact date when we have it.
